Net earnings during the second quarter of fiscal 2012 increased by 4% to $8.5 million ($1.77 per diluted share) compared with $8.2 million ($1.67 per diluted share) during the second quarter last year. For the year-to-date period, net earnings increased by 8% to $5.7 million ($1.19 per diluted share) compared with net earnings of $5.3 million ($1.09 per diluted share) for the same period last year.
During fiscal 2012, Danier has placed more emphasis on increasing sales generated from accessories. Although unseasonably warm weather contributed to a reduction in outerwear sales, accessory sales continued to perform well, increasing by 8% during the second quarter of fiscal 2012 and increasing by 9% for the year-to-date period, compared to the respective periods last year. The higher margin accessory category represented 30% of total sales during the second quarter of fiscal 2012 compared with 27% during the second quarter last year. For the 26 weeks ended December 24, 2011, accessories represented 32% of total sales compared with 29% during the corresponding period last year.
Mainly due to unseasonably warm weather, total company sales during the second quarter of fiscal 2012 decreased by 3% to $59.5 million compared with $61.4 million during the second quarter last year. Year-to-date sales decreased by 4% to $81.6 million compared with $84.9 million for the corresponding period last year. Comparable store sales(2) decreased by 3% during the second quarter of fiscal 2012 and decreased by 4% for the first half of fiscal 2012, compared to the respective periods last year.
Gross profit as a percentage of revenue during the second quarter of fiscal 2012 decreased by 280 basis points to 55.7% compared with 58.5% during the second quarter last year. Gross profit margin during the first half of fiscal 2012 decreased by 180 basis points to 55.0% compared with 56.8% during the first six months of last year.
Selling, general and administrative expenses during the second quarter of fiscal 2012 decreased by 12% to $21.4 million compared with $24.3 million during the second quarter last year. Year-to-date, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by 9% to $37.0 million compared with $40.6 million during the corresponding period last year.
Danier continues to maintain a strong balance sheet with cash of $31.8 million compared with $25.4 million at the end of the second quarter last year. In addition, at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2012, Danier had working capital of $50.5 million, no long-term debt and a book value of $14.49 per outstanding share.
For the 2012 fiscal year, Danier began reporting its financial results in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"), including comparative information. Previously reported financial results prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles have been restated to conform to the new standards adopted. See Note 21 accompanying Danier's second quarter 2012 unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements for further information on the transition to IFRS and its impact on Danier's financial position, financial performance and cash flows.
Non-IFRS Financial Measures
The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS. In order to provide additional insight into the business, the Company has also provided non-IFRS data, including EBITDA and comparable store sales as defined below. Non-IFRS measures such as EBITDA and comparable store sales are not recognized measures for financial presentation under IFRS. These non-IFRS measures do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and, therefore, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other publicly traded companies, nor should they be construed as an alternative to other financial measures determined in accordance with IFRS.
(1) EBITDA is defined as net earnings before interest expense, interest
income, income taxes, impairment loss on property and equipment and
amortization. EBITDA is a financial metric used by management and some
investors to compare companies on the basis of ongoing operating
results before taxes, interest expense, interest income, impairment
loss on property and equipment and amortization and its ability to
incur and service debt. EBITDA is also used by management to measure
performance against internal targets and prior period results. EBITDA
is calculated as outlined in the following table:

(2) Comparable store sales are defined as sales generated by stores that
have been open during the full current fiscal year as well as the full
prior fiscal year. Comparable store sales is a key indicator used by
the Company to measure performance against internal targets and prior
period results and excludes sales fluctuations due to new stores, store
closings and certain permanent store relocations. This measure is also
commonly used by financial analysts and investors to compare Danier to
other retailers.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the 13 week and 26 week periods ended December 24, 2011 and December 25,
2010
(unless otherwise stated, all amounts are in thousands of Canadian dollars)
- unaudited1. General Information:
Danier Leather Inc. and its subsidiaries ("Danier" or the "Company") comprise a vertically integrated designer, manufacturer, distributor and retailer of leather apparel and accessories. Danier Leather Inc. is a corporation existing under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) and is domiciled in Canada. The Company's Subordinate Voting Shares are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX:DL.TO - News). The address of its registered head office is 2650 St. Clair Avenue West, Toronto, Ontario, M6N 1M2, Canada.
2. Significant Accounting Policies:
(a) Statement of Compliance
These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements ("interim consolidated financial statements") have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") applicable to the preparation of interim financial statements, including International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 34, Interim Financial Reporting and by IFRS 1, First-time Adoption of IFRS ("IFRS 1"), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB").
The policies applied in these interim consolidated financial statements are based on IFRS standards issued and outstanding as of January 25, 2012, the date the interim consolidated financial statements were approved and authorized for issuance by the Company's Board of Directors. Any subsequent changes to IFRS that are given effect in the Company's annual consolidated financial statements for the financial year ending June 30, 2012 could result in restatement of these interim consolidated financial statements, including transition adjustments recognized on change-over to IFRS.
The interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's annual financial statements for the year ended June 25, 2011 prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles ("Canadian GAAP"). In addition, for supplemental annual disclosures, see note 21 and note 22 of the Company's 2012 first quarter unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements and notes ("Q1 2012 interim consolidated financial statements"). An explanation of how the transition from Canadian GAAP to IFRS as at June 27, 2010 ("transition date") has affected the reported financial position, financial performance and cash flows of the Company, including mandatory exceptions and optional exemptions under IFRS 1 is provided in the Q1 2012 interim consolidated financial statements.
(b) Basis of Presentation
These interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for the following items which are measured at fair value:
-- Financial instruments at fair value through profit and loss; and
-- Liabilities for cash-settled share-based payment plans.
The significant accounting policies as disclosed in note 3 of the Company's Q1 2012 interim consolidated financial statements have been applied consistently in the preparation of these interim consolidated financial statements.
(c) Functional and presentation currency
These interim consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars ("C$"), the Company's functional currency. All financial information is presented in thousands, except per share amounts which are presented in whole dollars and number of shares, which are presented as whole numbers.
(d) Use of Estimates and Judgments
The preparation of these interim consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires management to make certain judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the interim consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period.
Judgment is commonly used in determining whether a balance or transaction should be recognized in the interim consolidated financial statements, and estimates and assumptions are more commonly used in determining the measurement of recognized transactions and balances. However, judgments and estimates are often interrelated.
Management has applied its judgment in its assessment of the classification of leases and financial instruments, the recognition of tax provisions, determining the tax rates used for measuring deferred taxes, and identifying the indicators of impairment of property and equipment and computer software.
Estimates are used when estimating the useful lives of property and equipment and computer software for the purposes of depreciation and amortization, when accounting for or measuring items such as inventory provisions, gift card breakage, assumptions underlying income taxes, sales and use taxes and sales return provisions, certain fair value measures including those related to the valuation of share-based payments and financial instruments and when testing assets for impairment. These estimations depend upon subjective and complex judgments about matters that may be uncertain, and changes in those estimates could materially impact the interim consolidated financial statements. Illiquid credit markets, volatile equity, foreign currency and energy markets and declines in consumer spending have combined to increase the uncertainty inherent in such estimates and assumptions. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results may differ significantly from such estimates and assumptions.
Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.
3. Future Accounting Standards:
A number of new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations have been issued but are not yet effective for the financial year ending June 30, 2012, and accordingly, have not been applied in preparing these interim consolidated financial statements:
(a) IFRS 7: Financial Instruments - Disclosures
The IASB has issued an amendment to IFRS 7, "Financial Instruments: Disclosures", requiring incremental disclosures regarding transfers of financial assets. This amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2011. The Company will apply the amendment for its fiscal year beginning July 1, 2012 and does not expect the implementation to have a significant impact on the Company's disclosures.
The IASB has issued two further amendments to IFRS 7 related to enhanced disclosure requirements for offsetting of financial assets and liabilities and additional disclosures on transition from IAS 39 to IFRS 9. The amendment related to offsetting of financial assets and liabilities is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013 and the amendment related to additional disclosures on transition from IAS 39 to IFRS 9 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2015. The Company has yet to assess the impact of these further amendments on its consolidated financial statements.
(b) IFRS 9: Financial Instruments
The IASB has issued a new standard, IFRS 9, "Financial Instruments" ("IFRS 9"), which will ultimately replace IAS 39, "Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement" ("IAS 39"). The replacement of IAS 39 is a multi-phase project with the objective of improving and simplifying the reporting for financial instruments and the issuance of IFRS 9 is a part of the first phase. This standard originally was to become effective on January 1, 2013 but the mandatory effective date has been amended to January 1, 2015. The Company has yet to assess the impact of the new standard on its statements of financial position, earnings and disclosures.
(c) IFRS 13: Fair Value Measurement
The IASB has issued a new standard, IFRS 13, "Fair Value Measurement" ("IFRS 13"), which is a comprehensive standard for fair value measurement and disclosure requirements for use across all IFRS standards. The new standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013 and clarifies that fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants, at the measurement date. It also establishes disclosures about fair value measurement. Under existing IFRS, guidance on measuring and disclosing fair value is dispersed among the specific standards requiring fair value measurements and, in many cases, does not reflect a clear measurement basis or consistent disclosures. The Company does not believe that this new standard will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
(d) IAS 32: Financial Instruments - Presentation
The IASB has issued an amendment to standard IAS 32, "Financial Instruments - Presentation" ("IAS 32"). The amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2014 and clarifies the requirements for offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities. The Company has yet to assess the impact of this amendment on its consolidated financial statements.
(e) Other Standards
On May 12, 2011, the IASB issued a package of five new standards, all of which are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Early adoption is permitted but IFRS 10, IFRS 11 and IFRS 12 (all discussed below) must all be adopted at the same time. The Company has yet to fully assess the impact of the new standards and amendments on its consolidated financial statements. The following is a list of these new standards and amendments.
-- IFRS 10, "Consolidated Financial Statements" ("IFRS 10") - This standard
replaces the portions of IAS 27, "Consolidated and Separate Financial
Statements" that pertain to consolidated reporting and also SIC-12,
"Consolidation - Special Purpose Entities". This new standard
establishes standards for the presentation and preparation of
consolidated financial statements when an entity controls one or more
entities. IFRS 10 establishes a single control model that applies to all
entities.
-- IFRS 11, "Joint Arrangement" ("IFRS 11") - This standard replaces IAS
31, "Interests in Joint Ventures" and SIC-13, "Jointly-controlled
Entities - Non-Monetary Contributions by Venturers", and requires that a
party in a joint arrangement assess its rights and obligations to
determine the type of joint arrangement and account for those rights and
obligations accordingly. IFRS 11 removes the option to account for
jointly controlled entities using proportionate consolidation. Instead,
jointly controlled entities that meet the definition of a joint venture
must be accounted for using the equity method.
-- IFRS 12, "Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities" ("IFRS 12") - This
standard supplements existing disclosure requirements about interests in
subsidiaries, joint arrangements, associates and unconsolidated
structured entities. It focuses on the nature of, and risk associated
with, such interests in other entities and the effects of such interests
on its statements of financial position, earnings (loss) and cash flows.3. Future Accounting Standards (continued):
-- IAS 27, "Separate Financial Statements" and IAS 28 "Investments in
Associates and Joint Venturers" are both being amended as a direct
consequence of the above new standards and deal with accounting in
separate, or unconsolidated, financial statements, as well as the
mechanics of equity accounting for joint ventures.4. Seasonality of retail operations:
Due to the seasonal nature of the retail business and the Company's product lines, the results of operation for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the fiscal year. Generally, a significant portion of the Company's sales and earnings are typically generated during the second fiscal quarter, which includes the holiday selling season. Sales are usually lowest and losses are typically experienced during the period from April to September.

The Company conducted an impairment test for its property and equipment and determined that there was an impairment of $21 for the 13 week and 26 week periods ended December 24, 2011 ($35 - 13 week and 26 week periods ended December 25, 2010). The recoverable amount of the cash generating unit ("CGU") was estimated based on value-in-use calculations as this was determined to be higher than fair value less costs to sell. These calculations use cash flow projections based on actual performance during the past 12 months which are then extrapolated over each CGU's remaining lease term and then discounted using an estimated discount rate. The key assumptions for the value-in-use calculations include discount rates, growth rates and expected cash flows. Management estimates discount rates using pre-tax rates that reflect current market assessment of the time value of money and the risks specific to the CGUs. Changes in revenues and direct costs are based on past experience and expectations of future changes in the market.
The pre-tax discount rate used to calculate value-in-use range is 11% and is dependent on the specific risks in relation to the CGU. The discount rate is derived from retail industry comparable post-tax weighted average cost of capital.
If management's cash flow estimate were to decrease by 10% or if the discount rate were to increase by 100 basis points, the impairment for the 13 week and 26 week periods ended December 24, 2011 would increase by $6.

The Company has an operating credit facility for working capital and for general corporate purposes to a maximum amount of $25 million that is committed until June 27, 2014 and bears interest at prime plus 0.75%. Standby fees of 0.50% are paid on a quarterly basis for any unused portion of the operating credit facility. The operating credit facility is subject to certain covenants and other limitations that, if breached, could cause a default and may result in a requirement for immediate repayment of amounts outstanding. Security provided includes a security interest over all personal property of the Company's business and a mortgage over the land and building comprising the Company's head office/distribution facility.
The Company also has an uncommitted letter of credit facility (the "LC Facility") to a maximum amount of $10 million and an uncommitted demand overdraft facility in the amount of $0.5 million (the "LC Facility") to be used exclusively for issuance of letters of credit for the purchase of inventory. Any amounts outstanding under the overdraft facility will bear interest at the bank's prime rate. The LC Facility is secured by the Company's personal property from time to time financed with the proceeds drawn thereunder.

The Multiple Voting Shares and Subordinate Voting Shares have identical attributes except that the Multiple Voting Shares entitle the holder to ten votes per share and the Subordinate Voting Shares entitle the holder to one vote per share. Each Multiple Voting Share is convertible at any time, at the holder's option, into one fully paid and non-assessable Subordinate Voting Share. The Multiple Voting Shares are subject to provisions whereby, if a triggering event occurs, then each Multiple Voting Share is converted into one fully paid and non-assessable Subordinate Voting Share. A triggering event may occur if, among other things, Mr. Jeffrey Wortsman, President and Chief Executive Officer: (i) dies; (ii) ceases to be a Senior Officer of the Company; (iii) ceases to own 5% or more of the aggregate number of Multiple Voting Shares and Subordinate Voting Shares outstanding; or (iv) owns less than 918,247 Multiple Voting Shares and Subordinate Voting Shares combined.
(c) Earnings per share
Basic and diluted per share amounts are based on the following weighted average number of shares outstanding:

The computation of dilutive options outstanding only includes those options having exercise prices below the average market price of Subordinate Voting Shares on the TSX during the period. The number of options excluded was 62,000 as at December 24, 2011 and 58,000 as at December 25, 2010.
(d) Normal Course Issuer Bids
During the past several years, the Company has received approval from the TSX to commence various normal course issuer bids ("NCIBs"). On May 5, 2011, the Company received approval from the TSX to commence its fifth normal course issuer bid (the "2011 NCIB"). The Company's previous normal course issuer bid expired on May 6, 2011 (the "2010 NCIB"). The 2011 NCIB permits the Company to acquire up to 176,440 Subordinate Voting Shares, representing approximately 5% of the Company's issued and outstanding Subordinate Voting Shares at the date of acceptance of the notice of intention in respect of the 2011 NCIB filed with the TSX, during the period from May 9, 2011 to May 8, 2012, or such earlier date as the Company may complete its purchases under the 2011 NCIB. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011 and the first quarter of fiscal 2012, the Company repurchased an aggregate of 125,000 Subordinate Voting Shares for cancellation at a weighted average price of $11.44, leaving 51,440 Subordinate Voting Shares available for repurchase by the Company under the 2011 NCIB.
During the 13 week and 26 week period ended December 24, 2011 and December 25, 2010, repurchases of Subordinate Voting Shares under the Company's NCIBs outstanding during the applicable period is presented below.

(e) Stock option plan
The Company maintains a Stock Option Plan for the benefit of directors, officers, employees and service providers, pursuant to which granted options are exercisable for Subordinate Voting Shares. As at December 24, 2011, the Company has reserved 635,234 Subordinate Voting Shares for issuance under its Stock Option Plan. The granting of options and the related vesting periods are at the discretion of the Board of Directors, on the advice of the Governance, Compensation, Human Resources and Nominating Committee of the Board (the "Committee") at exercise prices determined as the weighted average of the trading prices of the Company's Subordinate Voting Shares on the TSX for the five trading days preceding the effective date of the grant. In general, options granted under the Stock Option Plan vest over a period of three years from the grant date and expire no later than the tenth anniversary of the date of grant (subject to extension in accordance with the Stock Option Plan if the options would otherwise expire during a black-out period).
A summary of the status of the Company's Stock Option Plan as of December 24, 2011 and December 25, 2010 and changes during the 26 week periods ended on those dates is presented below:

During the 13 week and 26 week periods ended December 24, 2011 and December 25, 2010, there were no stock options granted.
The compensation expense recorded for the 13 week and 26 week periods ended December 24, 2011 in respect of stock options was $2 and $17, respectively (13 week and 26 week periods ended December 25, 2010 - $20 and $60, respectively). The counterpart is recorded as contributed surplus. Any consideration paid by optionees on the exercise of stock options is credited to share capital.
(f) Deferred Share Unit Plan
The cash-settled Deferred Share Unit ("DSU") Plan, as amended, was established for non-management directors. Under the DSU Plan, non-management directors of the Company may receive an annual grant of DSUs at the discretion of the Board of Directors on the advice of the Committee, and can also elect to receive their annual retainers and meeting fees in DSUs. A DSU is a notional unit equivalent in value to one Subordinate Voting Share of the Company based on the five-day average trading price of the Company's Subordinate Voting Shares on the TSX immediately prior to the date on which the value of the DSU is determined.
After retirement from the Board of Directors, a participant in the DSU Plan receives a cash payment equal to the market value of the accumulated DSUs in their account. The fair value of the liability is measured at each financial position date by applying the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model until the award is settled.
The following transactions occurred during each of the 13 week and 26 week periods ended December 24, 2011 and December 25, 2010 with respect to the DSU Plan:

(g) Restricted Share Unit Plan
The Company has established a cash-settled Restricted Share Unit ("RSU") Plan, as amended, as part of its overall compensation plan. An RSU is a notional unit equivalent in value to one Subordinate Voting Share of the Company. The RSU Plan is administered by the Board of Directors, with the advice of the Committee. Under the RSU Plan, certain eligible employees and directors of the Company are eligible to receive a grant of RSUs that generally vest over periods not exceeding three years, as determined by the Committee. Upon the exercise of the vested RSUs, a cash payment equal to the market value of the exercised vested RSUs will be paid to the participant. RSU expense is recognized on a graded vesting schedule and is determined based on the fair value of the liability incurred at each financial position date until the award is settled. The fair value of the liability is measured by applying the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model, taking into account the extent to which participants have rendered services to date.
The following transactions occurred during each of the 13 week and 26 week periods ended December 24, 2011 and December 25, 2010 with respect to the RSU Plan:

The estimated average annual effective rate was 27.9% during the 26 weeks ended December 24, 2011 compared with 29.7% estimated rate for the 26 weeks ended December 25, 2010 and 29.3% for the fiscal year ended June 25, 2011. The difference between the rate for the 26 weeks ended December 24, 2011 and the rate for the 26 weeks ended December 25, 2010 and the fiscal year ended June 25, 2011 is due to a reduction in the statutory tax rates as well as the effect of certain non-deductible expenses on estimated earnings and the effect of changes in future federal and provincial rates on deferred taxes.

(a) Legal proceedings
In the course of its business, the Company from time to time becomes involved in various claims and legal proceedings. In the opinion of management, all such claims and suits are adequately covered by insurance, or if not so covered, the results are not expected to materially affect the Company's financial position.
(b) Guarantees
The Company has provided the following guarantees to third parties and no amounts have been accrued in the consolidated financial statements for these guarantees:
i. In the ordinary course of business, the Company has agreed to indemnify
its lenders under its credit facilities against certain costs or losses
resulting from changes in laws and regulations or from a default in
repaying a borrowing. These indemnifications extend for the term of the
credit facilities and do not provide any limit on the maximum potential
liability. Historically, the Company has not made any indemnification
payments under such agreements.ii. In the ordinary course of business, the Company has provided
indemnification commitments to certain counterparties in matters such as
real estate leasing transactions, director and officer indemnification
agreements and certain purchases of non-inventory assets and services.
These indemnification agreements generally require the Company to
compensate the counterparties for costs or losses resulting from legal
action brought against the counterparties related to the actions of the
Company. The terms of these indemnification agreements will vary based
on the contract and generally do not provide any limit on the maximum
potential liability.iii.The Company sublet one location during the first quarter of fiscal 2011
and provided the landlord with a guarantee in the event the sub-tenant
defaults on its obligations under the lease. The guarantee terminates at
the time of lease expiry, which is March 31, 2013, and the Company's
maximum exposure is approximately $176.17. Commitments:
(a) Operating leases:
The Company leases various store locations, a distribution warehouse and equipment under non-cancellable operating lease agreements. The leases are classified as operating leases since there is no transfer of risks and rewards inherent to ownership.
The leases have varying terms, escalation clauses and renewal rights. Minimum lease payments are recognized on a straight-line basis. Leases run for varying terms that generally do not exceed 10 years, with options to renew (if any) that do not exceed 5 years. The majority of leases are net leases, which require additional payments for the cost of insurance, taxes, common area maintenance and utilities. Certain rental agreements include contingent rent, which is based on revenue exceeding a minimum amount. Minimum rentals, excluding rentals based upon revenue, are as follows:
Not later than one year $ 10,360
Later than one year and not later than five years $ 25,202
Later than 5 years $ 11,130

------------------------- ------------------------------------
(1)Included in accounts receivable as at December 24, 2011 and included in
payables and accruals as at December 25, 2010.
The fair value of a financial instrument is the estimated amount that the Company would receive or pay to settle the financial assets and financial liabilities as at the reporting date. These estimates are subjective in nature, often involve uncertainties and the exercise of significant judgment and are made at a specific point in time, using available information about the financial instrument and may not reflect fair value in the future. The estimated fair value amounts can be materially affected by the use of different assumptions or methodologies.
The methods and assumptions used in estimating the fair value of the Company's financial instruments are as follows:
-- The derivative financial instruments, which consist of foreign exchange
contracts, have been marked-to-market and are categorized as Level 2 in
the fair value hierarchy. Factors included in the determination of fair
value include the spot rate, forward rates, estimates of volatility,
present value factor, strike prices, credit risk of the Company and
credit risk of counterparties. As at December 24, 2011, a $4 unrealized
gain was recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses for
the foreign exchange contracts outstanding.
-- The fair value of cash is determined using Level 2 inputs in the fair
value hierarchy which include interest rates for similar instruments
which are obtained from independent publications and market exchanges.
-- Given their short-term maturity, the fair value of cash and cash
equivalents, accounts receivable, payables and accruals and sales return
provision approximate their carrying values.
(b) Financial instrument risk management
Exposure to foreign currency risk, interest rate risk, equity price risk, liquidity risk and credit risk arise in the normal course of the Company's business and are discussed further below:
Foreign Currency Risk
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company purchases a significant portion of its leather and finished goods inventory from foreign vendors with payment terms in U.S. dollars. The Company uses a combination of foreign exchange contracts and spot purchases to manage its foreign exchange exposure on cash flows related to these purchases. A foreign exchange contract represents an option with a counterparty to buy or sell a foreign currency to meet its obligations. Credit risk exists in the event of failure by a counterparty to fulfill its obligations. The Company reduces this risk by dealing only with highly-rated counterparties such as major Canadian financial institutions.
During the 13 week and 26 periods ended December 24, 2011 and December 25, 2010, the Company entered into foreign exchange contracts with a major Canadian financial institution as counterparty with U.S. dollar notional amounts as listed below. Foreign exchange contracts outstanding as at December 24, 2011 expire at various times between January 3, 2012 and March 16, 2012 and the foreign exchange contracts that were outstanding as at December 25, 2010 expired between January 7, 2011 and December 1, 2011.

As at December 24, 2011, a sensitivity analysis was performed on the Company's U.S. dollar denominated financial instruments, which principally consist of US$0.3 million of cash, to determine how a change in the U.S. dollar exchange rate would impact net earnings. A 500 basis point rise or fall in the Canadian dollar against the U.S. dollar, assuming that all other variables, in particular interest rates, remained the same, would have resulted in a $2 and $4 decrease or increase in the Company's net earnings for the 13 week and 26 week periods ended December 24, 2011, respectively.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company's exposure to interest rate fluctuations is primarily related to cash borrowings under its existing credit facility, which bears interest at floating rates, and interest earned on its cash balances. The Company has performed a sensitivity analysis on interest rate risk at December 24, 2011 to determine how a change in interest rates would have impacted net earnings. As at December 24, 2011, the Company's cash and cash equivalents available for investment was approximately $31.8 million. A 100 basis point change in interest rates would have increased or decreased net earnings by approximately $56 and $111 for the 13 week and 26 week periods ended December 24, 2011, respectively. This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular foreign currency rates, remain constant.
Equity Price Risk
Equity price risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market equity prices. The Company's exposure to equity price fluctuations is primarily related to the RSU and DSU liability included in payables and accruals. The value of the vested DSU and RSU liability is adjusted to reflect changes in the market value of the Company's Subordinate Voting Shares on the TSX. The Company has performed a sensitivity analysis on equity price risk as at December 24, 2011 to determine how a change in the price of the Company's Subordinate Voting Shares would have impacted net earnings. As at December 24, 2011, a total of 166,770 RSUs and 103,920 DSUs have been granted and are outstanding. An increase or decrease of $1.00 in the market price of the Company's Subordinate Voting Shares would have increased or decreased net earnings by approximately $189 for the 13 week and 26 week periods ended December 24, 2011. This analysis assumes that all RSUs and DSUs were fully vested and other variables remain constant.
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Company's approach to managing liquidity risk is to ensure, to the extent possible, that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due. As at December 24, 2011, the Company had $31.8 million of cash and cash equivalents; an operating credit facility of $25 million that is committed until June 27, 2014; and a $10 million uncommitted letter of credit facility which includes an uncommitted demand overdraft facility in the amount of $0.5 million related thereto. The credit facilities are used to finance seasonal working capital requirements for merchandise purchases and other corporate purposes. The Company expects that the majority of its payables and accruals and deferred revenue will be discharged within 90 days.
Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk that a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss to the Company by failing to meet its obligations. The Company's financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk are primarily cash and cash equivalents (which includes cash and money market investments with maturities of three months or less), accounts receivable and foreign exchange option contracts. The Company limits its exposure to credit risk with respect to cash and money market investments by investing in short-term deposits and bankers' acceptances with major Canadian financial institutions and Government of Canada treasury bills. The Company's accounts receivable consist primarily of credit card receivables from the last few days of the fiscal period end, which are settled within the first few days of the new fiscal period. Accounts receivable also consist of accounts receivable from licensees, distributors and corporate customers. Accounts receivable are net of applicable allowance for doubtful accounts, which is established based on the specific credit risks associated with the licensee, distributor, each corporate customer and other relevant information. The allowance for doubtful accounts is assessed on a quarterly basis. Concentration of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable from licensees, distributors and corporate customers is limited due to the relatively insignificant balances outstanding and the number of different customers comprising the Company's customer base.
As at December 24, 2011, the Company's exposure to credit risk for these financial instruments was cash and cash equivalents of $31.8 million and accounts receivable of $1.7 million. Cash and cash equivalents included $28.5 million of short-term deposits.
19. Capital Disclosure:
The Company defines its capital as shareholders' equity. The Company's objectives in managing capital are to:
-- Ensure sufficient liquidity to support its current operations and
execute its business plans;
-- Enable the internal financing of capital projects; and
-- Maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and
market confidence.
The Company's primary uses of capital are to finance non-cash working capital along with capital expenditures for new store additions, existing store renovation or relocation projects, information technology software and hardware purchases and production machinery and equipment purchases. The Company maintains a $25 million operating credit facility and a $10 million uncommitted letter of credit facility that it uses to finance seasonal working capital requirements for merchandise purchases and other corporate purposes. The Company does not have any long-term debt and therefore net earnings generated from operations are available for reinvestment in the Company. The Board of Directors does not establish quantitative return on capital criteria for management, but rather promotes year-over-year sustainable profitable growth. On a quarterly basis, the Board of Directors monitors share repurchase program activities. Decisions on whether to repurchase shares are made on a specific transaction basis and depend on the Company's cash position, estimates of future cash requirements, market prices and regulatory restrictions. The Company does not currently pay dividends.
Externally imposed capital requirements include a debt-to-equity ratio covenant as part of the operating credit facility. The Company was in compliance with this covenant as at December 24, 2011 and December 25, 2010. There has been no change with respect to the overall capital risk management strategy during the 26 week period ended December 24, 2011.
20. Segmented Information:
Management has determined that the Company operates in one operating segment which involves the design, manufacture, distribution and retail of fashion leather and suede.
21. Transition to IFRS:
The Company has adopted IFRS effective June 26, 2011, with a transition date of June 27, 2010 (the "Transition Date"). Prior the adoption of IFRS, the Company presented its consolidated financial statements in accordance with Canadian GAAP. The Company will prepare its first annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2012 by applying IFRS that are in effect as at that date. However, the opening Consolidated Balance Sheet and financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 25, 2011 and the fiscal year ending June 30, 2012 may differ from these financial statements if new standards are subsequently enacted and effective prior to the end of June 30, 2012.
The Company's significant accounting policies presented in note 3 of the Company's Q1 2012 interim consolidated financial statements have been applied in preparing the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the 13 week and 26 week periods ended December 24, 2011 and December 25, 2010 and the 52 week period ended June 25, 2011.
IFRS 1 requires an entity to adopt IFRS in its first annual financial statements prepared under IFRS by making an explicit and unreserved statement in those financial statements of compliance with IFRS. IFRS 1 also generally requires that an entity apply all IFRS standards effective at the end of the first IFRS reporting year retrospectively. However, IFRS 1 does include certain mandatory exemptions and limited optional exemptions from this general requirement. The Company has provided a detailed explanation of the impacts of its IFRS transition, including a discussion of IFRS exemptions and exceptions, in notes 21 and 22 of its Q1 2012 interim consolidated financial statements.
An explanation of how the transition from Canadian GAAP to IFRS has affected the Company's financial position, financial performance and cash flows as at December 25, 2010 and for the 13 week and 26 week periods ended December 25, 2010 is set out in the following reconciliations and in the notes accompanying the reconciliations.
Material Adjustments to Consolidated Statements of Cash Flow
IFRS requires cash flows from interest received, interest paid and income taxes paid to be disclosed directly in the consolidated statements of cash flow. Under Canadian GAAP, the Company disclosed interest and income taxes paid as supplementary cash flow information. This has resulted in a change to the presentation of the consolidated statements of cash flow for all periods presented in these interim consolidated financial statements. There are no other material differences between the Company's statements of cash flow presented under IFRS and the statements of cash flow presented under Canadian GAAP.

Notes to the Reconciliations
The preceding are reconciliations of the financial statements previously presented under Canadian GAAP to the amended financial statements prepared under IFRS. Items in the "Adj" columns included IFRS adjustments that are required as the accounting treatment under Canadian GAAP differs from the treatment under IFRS, as well as IFRS reclassifications which are solely presentation reclassifications required to present the previous Canadian GAAP financial statement line items on a consistent basis with that of the IFRS presentation. Details on the nature of both IFRS adjustments and IFRS reclassifications are described below.

IFRS Adjustments
(a) Under IFRS, the Company accrues the cost of employee stock options and RSUs over the vesting period using the graded vesting method of amortization rather than the straight-line method, which was the Company's policy under Canadian GAAP. The effect of this change in accounting is summarized below:

(b) IFRS requires asset groups to be tested for impairment at the independent CGU level based on the generation of cash flows which the Company has determined to be at the individual store level. Canadian GAAP allows assets to be grouped together at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities for impairment testing purposes. Since impairment testing under IFRS is conducted at the individual store level compared with a higher level under Canadian GAAP, impairment losses were recognized in selling, general and administrative expenses as summarized below:

(c) IFRS requires separate amortization for each part of an item of property and equipment with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of the item. The Company has reviewed the significant components of its head office building and has determined that its head office building includes major components consisting of the roof and HVAC equipment, which have shorter estimated useful lives than the building.

In addition, current deferred income tax liability reported under Canadian GAAP of $54 at December 25, 2010 ($Nil at June 25, 2011) has been reclassified as non-current deferred tax asset under IFRS.
