| (1) | General |
| (a) | Basis of Presentation | ||
| The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual audited consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation for each of the periods presented. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be achieved for full fiscal years. Our business is seasonal, with the highest percentage of Teva net sales occurring in the first and second quarters of each year and the highest percentage of UGG net sales occurring in the third and fourth quarters, while the quarter with the highest percentage of annual net sales for Simple has varied from year to year. | |||
| As contemplated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and related footnotes have been condensed and do not contain certain information that will be included in the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and related footnotes for the year ended December 31, 2004 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004. | |||
| (b) | Use of Estimates | ||
| The preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant areas requiring the use of management estimates relate to inventory reserves, allowances for bad debts, returns and discounts, impairment assessments and charges, deferred taxes, depreciation and amortization, litigation reserves, fair value of financial instruments, fair value of acquired intangibles, assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from these estimates. | |||
| (c) | Stock Compensation | ||
| The Company accounts for stock-based compensation under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (“SFAS 123”), as amended by SFAS 148. Under the provisions of SFAS 123 and SFAS 148, the Company has elected to continue to measure compensation cost for employees and nonemployee directors of the Company under the intrinsic value method of Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25 and comply with the pro forma disclosure requirements under SFAS 123 and SFAS 148. The Company applies the fair value techniques of SFAS 123 and SFAS 148 to measure compensation cost for options/warrants granted to nonemployees. |

| (d) | Reclassifications | ||
| Certain reclassifications have been made to the December 31, 2004 and September 30, 2004 balances to conform to the 2005 presentation. |
| (2) | Comprehensive Income | |
| Comprehensive income is the total of net income and all other nonowner changes in equity. At September 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, accumulated other comprehensive income of $227,000 and $324,000, respectively, consisted entirely of cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment. The Company does not have any other transactions or other economic events that qualify as comprehensive income. | ||
| Comprehensive income is determined as follows: |
| Three-month period ended | ||||||||
| September 30, | ||||||||
| 2005 | 2004 | |||||||

| (3) | Income per Share | |
| Basic income per share represents net income divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted income per share represents net income divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding, including the dilutive impact of potential issuances of common stock. For the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, the difference between the weighted average number of shares used in the basic computation and that used in the diluted computation resulted from the dilutive impact of options to purchase common stock. |

Weighted average shares used for diluted computation |
12,872,000 | 11,921,000 | ||||||
Options to purchase 20,000 shares of common stock at prices ranging from $27.90 to $33.10 were
outstanding during the three months ended September 30, 2005, and options to purchase 10,000
shares of common stock at a price of $33.10 were outstanding during the three months ended
September 30, 2004, but were not included in the computation of diluted income per share
because the options’ exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common
stock during the period, and, therefore, were anti-dilutive.
Options to purchase 10,000 shares of common stock at a price of $33.10 were outstanding during
the nine months ended September 30, 2005, and options to purchase 20,000 shares of common
stock at prices ranging from $27.90 to $33.10 were outstanding during the nine months ended
September 30, 2004, but were not included in the computation of diluted income per share
because the options’ exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common
stock during the period, and, therefore, were anti-dilutive.
The Company excluded 66,250 contingently issuable shares of common stock underlying its
nonvested stock units from the diluted income per share computations for the three and
nine-month periods ended September 30, 2005. This is because the necessary conditions had not
been satisfied for any shares to be issuable based on the Company’s performance through
September 30, 2005.

| (4) | Credit Facility | |
| The Company has a revolving credit facility with Comerica Bank (the “Facility”) that expires June 1, 2007 and provides for a maximum availability of $25,000,000 for the period from September 6, 2005 to December 6, 2005, and $20,000,000 for the remainder of the term, subject to a borrowing base. In general, the borrowing base is equal to 75% of eligible accounts receivable, as defined, and 50% of eligible inventory, as defined. The accounts receivable advance rate can increase or decrease depending on the Company’s accounts receivable dilution, which is calculated periodically. Up to $10,000,000 of borrowings may be in the form of letters of credit. The Facility bears interest at the bank’s prime rate (6.75% at September 30, 2005) or at the Company’s option, at LIBOR (3.88% at September 30, 2005) plus 1.0% to 2.5%, depending on the Company’s ratio of liabilities to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), and is secured by substantially all assets of the Company. The Facility includes annual commitment fees of $60,000 for 2005. At September 30, 2005, the Company had outstanding borrowings under the Facility of $13,200,000, no foreign currency reserves for outstanding forward contracts and letters of credit of $52,000, and as a result $11,748,000 was available under the Facility. | ||
| (5) | Income Taxes | |
| Income taxes for the interim periods were computed using the effective tax rate estimated to be applicable for the full fiscal year, which is subject to ongoing review and evaluation by management. For the three months ended September 30, 2005, the Company recorded an income tax expense of $5,701,000, representing an effective income tax rate of 41.2%. For the three months ended September 30, 2004, the Company recorded an income tax expense of $3,559,000, representing an effective income tax rate of 37.9%. For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, the Company recorded an income tax expense of $13,224,000, representing an effective income tax rate of 40.1%. For the nine months ended September 30, 2004, the Company recorded an income tax expense of $9,708,000, representing an effective income tax rate of 37.3%. | ||
| (6) | Recent Accounting Pronouncements | |
| On October 22, 2004, the American Jobs Creation Act (“AJCA”) was signed into law. The AJCA includes a special one-time 85 percent dividends received deduction for certain foreign earnings that are repatriated. In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 109-2 (FSP FAS 109-2), “Accounting and Disclosure Guidance for the Foreign Earnings Repatriation Provision within the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004.” FSP FAS 109-2 provides accounting and disclosure guidance for this repatriation provision. The Company is currently evaluating the repatriation provisions of AJCA, which if implemented by the Company would affect the Company’s tax provision and deferred tax assets and liabilities. In the event that the Company decides to repatriate the overseas cash during the fourth quarter of 2005, it will result in an increase in the effective tax rate for that quarter. However, given the uncertainties and complexities of the repatriation provision and the Company’s continuing evaluation, it is not possible at this time to determine the amount that may be repatriated or the related potential income tax effects of such repatriation. |

| (6) | Recent Accounting Pronouncements (Continued) |
In November 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards, or SFAS No.
151, “Inventory Costs — An Amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin (“ARB”) No. 43, Chapter
4”. SFAS No. 151 amends the guidance in ARB No. 43, Chapter 4, “Inventory Pricing”, to clarify
the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and
wasted material (spoilage). SFAS No. 151 is effective for fiscal years beginning after June
15, 2005 and is required to be adopted in the first quarter of fiscal 2006. We do not expect
the adoption of SFAS No. 151 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial
statements.
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment”. SFAS
No. 123R supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, and requires all share-based payments to employees,
including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based
on their fair values beginning with the first interim or annual period after June 15, 2005.
The pro forma disclosure permitted under SFAS No. 123 will no longer be an alternative to
financial statement recognition. SFAS No. 123R requires the determination of the fair value of
the share-based compensation at the grant date and the recognition of the related expense over
the period in which the share-based compensation vests. In April 2005, the Securities and
Exchange Commission deferred the adoption date of SFAS No. 123R to the first interim period in
the first fiscal year beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company is, therefore, required to
adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 123R effective January 1, 2006. Note 1 discloses the
Company’s pro forma net income under SFAS No. 123R, which is expected to be comparable to
stock compensation pursuant to SFAS No 123R.
In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, a
replacement of Accounting Principles Board Opinion (APB) No. 20, Accounting Changes, and FASB
Statement No. 3, Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements.” This Statement
requires retrospective application to prior periods’ financial statements of a change in
accounting principle. It applies both to voluntary changes and to changes required by an
accounting pronouncement if the pronouncement does not include specific transition provisions.
APB 20 previously required that most voluntary changes in accounting principles be recognized
by recording the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle. SFAS 154 is effective
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The Company will adopt this statement on
January 1, 2006 and it is not expected to have a material effect on the financial statements
upon adoption.

| (7) | Business Segments |
Management of the Company has determined that its reportable segments are its strategic
business units. The four reportable business segments are the Teva, UGG and Simple wholesale
divisions and the Company’s Internet and catalog retailing business. The Company evaluates
performance based on net sales and income from operations. The Company’s reportable business
segments are strategic business units responsible for the worldwide operations of each of its
brands. They are managed separately because each business requires different marketing,
research and development, design, sourcing, and sales strategies. The income from operations
for each of the segments includes only those costs that are specifically related to each
brand, which consist primarily of cost of sales, costs for research and development, design,
marketing, sales, commissions, bad debts, depreciation, amortization, and the costs of
employees directly related to the brands. The unallocated corporate overhead costs are the
shared costs of the organization and include, among others, the following costs: costs of the
distribution center, information technology, human resources, accounting and finance, credit
and collections, executive compensation and facilities costs. The operating income derived
from Internet and catalog sales to third parties is separated into two components: (i) the
wholesale profit is included in the operating income of each of the three brands, and (ii) the
retail profit is included in the operating income of the Internet/catalog segment.
Net sales and operating income (loss) by business segment for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2005 and 2004 are summarized as follows:

The Company is currently involved in various legal claims arising from the ordinary course of
its business. Management does not believe that the disposition of these matters will have a
material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.
| (9) | Related Party Transaction |
In 1993, the Company and Douglas B. Otto, Chairman of the Board, entered into a split dollar
life insurance arrangement, whereby the Company participated in a portion of the life
insurance premiums paid through 2001. The arrangement provided that Mr. Otto’s estate would
reimburse the Company for all premiums previously paid. During the three months ended September
30, 2005, Mr. Otto reimbursed the Company for all premiums paid on his behalf. The Company
carried the value of the life insurance policy at its cash surrender value, which was lower
than the amount of premiums paid on the policy. As a result, the Company recognized a gain of
$260,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2005 upon settlement and receipt of the
reimbursement.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations
Forward-Looking Statements
The matters discussed in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations” and elsewhere in this report that are not historical are
forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. We sometimes use words such
as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “project,”
“will” and similar expressions, as they relate to us, our management and our industry, to
identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements relate to our expectations,
beliefs, plans, strategies, prospects, future performance, anticipated trends and other future
events. Specifically, this report contains forward-looking statements relating to, among other
things:
| • | our business, growth, operating and financing strategies; | ||
| • | our product mix; | ||
| • | the success of new products; | ||
| • | our licensing strategy; | ||
| • | the impact of seasonality on our operations; | ||
| • | expectations regarding our net sales and earnings growth; | ||
| • | expectations regarding our liquidity; | ||
| • | our future financing plans; and | ||
| • | trends affecting our financial condition or results of operations. |
We have based our forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and
projections about future events and financial trends affecting our business. Actual results
may differ materially because of numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control. Some
of the risks, uncertainties and assumptions that may cause actual results to differ from these
forward-looking statements include, without limitation:
| • | our ability to anticipate fashion trends; | ||
| • | whether the UGG brand will continue to grow at the rate it has experienced in the recent past; | ||
| • | possible shortages in top quality sheepskin, which could interrupt product manufacturing and increase product costs; | ||
| • | the risk that we are unable to accurately forecast consumer demand, which may result in excess inventory to liquidate or, conversely, may result in difficulty in filling customers’ orders; | ||
| • | the risk that we do not receive sufficient customer orders, or that our customers may cancel existing orders, both of which could negatively impact our ability to achieve our sales and earnings expectations, which could have an adverse effect on the price of our common stock; | ||
| • | the sensitivity of the footwear industry to changes in general economic conditions; | ||
| • | whether we are successful in implementing our growth strategy; | ||
| • | the success of our customers; |

| • | the challenge of managing our brands for growth; | ||
| • | our ability to successfully identify, develop or acquire, and build new brands; | ||
| • | potential fluctuations in quarterly results in future periods, which may prevent us from meeting expectations and have an adverse effect on the price of our common stock; | ||
| • | the potential decrease in sales, or increase in costs, in the European market related to possible anti-dumping tariffs currently under consideration by the European Union, which could apply to certain types of footwear imported into Europe from China; | ||

In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking events and
circumstances discussed in this report and the information incorporated by reference in this
report might not happen.
You should read this report, the documents that we filed as exhibits to this report and the

obligation to update such forward-looking statements publicly for any reason.
Overview
We are a leading producer and brand manager of innovative high-quality footwear and the
creator of the sport sandal and luxury sheepskin footwear categories. Our products are
marketed under three recognized brand names that we own:
| • | Teva: High performance sport sandals and rugged outdoor footwear; | ||
| • | UGG: Authentic luxury sheepskin boots, slippers and other footwear; and | ||
| • | Simple: Innovative shoes that combine the comfort elements of athletic footwear with casual styling. |
We sell our three brands through our retail customers and directly to our end-user consumers
through our Internet and catalog retailing business. We sell our footwear in both the domestic
market and the international markets. Independent third parties manufacture all of our
footwear.
Our business has been impacted by several important trends affecting our end markets:
15
Table of Contents
DECKERS OUTDOOR CORPORATION
AND SUBSIDIARIES
AND SUBSIDIARIES
| • | The markets for casual, outdoor and athletic footwear have grown significantly during the last decade. We believe this growth is a result of the trend toward casual dress in the workplace, increasingly active outdoor lifestyles and a growing emphasis on comfort. | ||
| • | Consumers are more often seeking footwear designed to address a broader array of activities with the same quality, comfort and high performance attributes they have come to expect from traditional athletic footwear. | ||
| • | Our customers have narrowed their footwear product breadth, focusing on brands with a rich heritage and authenticity as market creators and leaders. |
By emphasizing our brand image and our focus on comfort, performance and authenticity, we
believe we can better maintain a loyal consumer following that is less susceptible to
fluctuations caused by changing fashions and changes in consumer preferences.
Set forth below is an overview of the various components of our business, including some of
the important factors that affect each business and some of our strategies for growing each
business.
Teva Overview
From fiscal 2001 to 2004, Teva’s wholesale net sales increased at a compound annual growth
rate of 10.9%. However, for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005, Teva wholesale
net sales decreased by approximately 3.7% compared to the year ago period. The recent decline
has been due to several factors including an unseasonably cold Spring 2005 season, increased
competition, a recent lack of meaningful product innovation, and a decline in sales in the
European market. We are proactively addressing the situation going forward by dedicating
significantly greater resources to product development, marketing and advertising and the
development of a solid international infrastructure. However, given the lead times required
for these projects to yield results, we anticipate continued challenges in 2006, but expect to
return to growth beginning with the Spring 2007 season.
Despite the recent downturn, we believe that over the last few years Teva’s products have
benefited from several factors, but most prominently a general shift in consumer preferences
and lifestyles to include more outdoor recreational activities. At the same time, our
consumers are increasingly purchasing our Teva products for everyday wear, and our Teva brand
now includes several closed-toe footwear lines. As a result, our brand remains popular among
professional and amateur outdoorsmen seeking authentic, performance-oriented footwear, as well
as general footwear consumers seeking high quality, durable and comfortable styles for
everyday use.
To capitalize on the growth of outdoor recreational activities and the acceptance of certain
footwear products for everyday use, over the last few years we have selectively expanded the
distribution of our Teva product lines outside our core outdoor specialty and sporting goods
channels. Through effective channel management, we
believe we can continue to expand into new distribution channels without diluting our outdoor
heritage and our appeal to outdoor enthusiasts. Through appropriate channel product line
expansion, we plan to continue to broaden our product offerings beyond sport sandals to new
products that meet the style and functional needs of our consumers.
We initially produced Teva products under license from the inventor of the Teva technology,
Mark Thatcher. In November, 2002, we purchased from Mr. Thatcher the Teva worldwide assets,
including the Teva Internet and catalog business and all patents, trade names, trademarks and
other intellectual property associated with the acquired Teva assets, or the Teva Rights. As a
result of our purchase of the Teva Rights, we have adopted a strategy to expand the Teva brand
and more fully develop its potential.

AND SUBSIDIARIES
UGG Overview
Since early 2003, our UGG brand has received increased media exposure, which contributed
to broader public awareness of the UGG brand and significantly increased demand for the
collection. We believe that the increased media focus on UGG was driven by the product’s
unique styling and resulting brand name identification, Australian heritage and adoption by
high-profile film and television celebrities as a favored footwear brand. We believe this
increased media attention has enabled us to introduce the brand to consumers much faster than
we would have ordinarily been able to. As a result of the subsequent rapid growth in demand,
we were sold out of key UGG products throughout much of 2004, and given the long lead times
required to replenish our inventory, we were unable to fill many retailer reorders and many
direct Internet and catalog orders. In order to improve our ability to meet demand and to
ensure more timely deliveries in 2005, we have since improved our production timelines and
sourcing, resulting in an increase in our UGG inventory levels to $56,164,000 at September 30,
2005 from $14,858,000 at September 30, 2004. See “— Liquidity and Capital Resources.”
UGG has been a well-known brand in California for many years and over the past few years has
become a recognized brand across the remainder of the country. We believe that a portion of
UGG’s increased demand is due to our continued geographical expansion across the U.S. In
addition, we have recently begun to expand our distribution and marketing overseas in order to
address the under-penetrated international markets. While our international net sales of UGG
increased 58.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 compared to the nine months ended
September 30, 2004, it was largely due to our ability to deliver our Fall international orders
timely by September 30 this year; whereas, last year much of the Fall 2004 orders were
delivered late and therefore did not occur until the fourth quarter of 2004. As a result, we
currently expect international UGG sales for the year ending December 31, 2005 to be down
slightly compared to last year. Longer term, however, we believe that with our strategy to
develop an international infrastructure, the international markets represent an attractive
opportunity to grow UGG’s sales over the next few years.
We believe the fundamental comfort and functionality of UGG products will continue to drive
long-term consumer demand. Recognizing that there is a significant fashion element to UGG and
that footwear fashions fluctuate, our strategy seeks to prolong the longevity of the brand by
offering a broader product line suitable for wear in a variety of climates and occasions and
by limiting distribution to selected higher-end retailers. As part of this strategy, we have
expanded our product line to 86 models in 2005 from 52 models in 2002. This product line
expansion includes our Fall 2005 introduction of our new Fashion Collection, including our
well received Uptown boot and Cargo boot, as well as new styles in our casual offering,
performance collection and our luxury slipper category. Nevertheless, we cannot assure
investors that UGG sales will continue to grow at their recent pace or that revenue from UGG
products will not at some point possibly decline.
Four suppliers currently provide all of the sheepskin, the principal raw material for our UGG
products, purchased by our independent manufacturers. The top quality sheepskin used in UGG
footwear is in high demand and limited supply. In addition, sheep are susceptible to hoof and
mouth disease, which can result in the extermination of the infected herd and could have a
material adverse effect on the availability of sheepskin for our products. The supply of
sheepskin can also be adversely impacted by drought conditions. Our potential
inability to obtain top quality sheepskin for UGG products could impair our ability to meet
our production requirements for UGG products in a timely manner and could lead to inventory
shortages, which can result in lost potential sales, delays in shipments to customers, strain
on our relationships with customers and diminished brand loyalty. There have also been
significant increases in the prices of footwear quality sheepskin as the demand for this
material has increased. Any further price increases will likely raise our costs, increase our
costs of sales and decrease our profitability unless we are able to pass higher prices on to
our customers. While we believe the supply of top quality sheepskin has improved for the
2005 season, we still expect the demand for this material to continue to outpace supply,
leading to shortages and our inability to produce as much of certain styles as our customers
would like to order. Looking beyond the next year, if demand continues to be strong, we would
expect the supply of top quality sheepskin to continue to increase in response to the demand.
However, we have little control over the supply or the overall demand for top quality
sheepskin and, accordingly, can provide no assurances about the sufficiency of future
supplies of top quality sheepskin.

Simple Overview
The Simple product line has taken a “back to basics” approach in 2005, focusing on its
sneaker and clog lines while abandoning its Simple Sheep program launched in the third
quarter of 2004. Simple’s core sneaker and clog lines have shown strong growth of 37.4% in
the first nine months of 2005 when compared to the same period last year. At the same time,
we have changed our sales and distribution efforts. While Simple products are sold through
many of the same retailers that carry our Teva and UGG lines, the Simple products will also,
in some cases, be sold through distribution channels that are precluded from offering our
Teva and UGG brands. We expect our Simple brand to experience growth as we continue to
develop our re-focused product line and successfully implement our strategy to diversify our
distribution channels for the Simple brand.
Internet and Catalog Retailing Overview
We acquired our Internet and catalog retailing business in November 2002 as part of the
acquisition of the Teva Rights. Our Internet and catalog retailing business, which today
sells all three of our brands, enables us to meet the growing demand for these products, sell
the products at retail prices and provide us with significant incremental operating income.
From the time we acquired our Internet and catalog retailing business through 2004, we have
had significant revenue growth, much of which occurred as consumers were unable to locate
available UGG product at their local retailers in 2004 due to the brand’s growing popularity.
In the first nine months of 2005, UGG sales of our Internet and catalog retailing business
have declined as a result of improved availability of product at local retailers.
Managing our Internet business requires us to focus on generating Internet traffic to our
websites, to effectively convert website visits into orders and to maximize average order
sizes. We distribute approximately 550,000 catalogs every six months to drive our catalog
order business. Overall, our consumer direct business benefits from the strength of our
brands and, as we grow our brands over time, we expect our Internet and catalog retailing
division to continue to be an important segment of our business.
Licensing Overview
In 2004, we embarked on a strategy to license our well-known and respected footwear brands to
complementary products outside of footwear, generally in the apparel and accessories
categories. We currently have several licensing agreements for Teva, including domestic
licenses for headwear and socks and a Canadian license for sportswear. We have recently
terminated our previous domestic licensing agreements for time pieces, eyewear and men’s
apparel, and we are pending termination of our domestic sock license. We also have licensing
arrangements for UGG for handbags and other small leather goods, outerwear and cold weather
accessories. Because this licensing strategy is in its early stages, and due to the lead
times required to bring the products to
market, we have only recently begun to recognize licensing revenues and we do not expect
significant incremental net sales and profits from licensing in the near future. However, we
believe licensing revenues may become a more significant portion of our net sales and profits
over time if we can recruit strong licensees and if our licensees can sell the licensed
products in the quantities and of the quality they have promised. Beginning in the third
quarter of 2004, our licensees began to ship their products. For the nine months ended
September 30, 2005, we recognized net license revenues for UGG of $297,000, primarily related
to our UGG handbag and outerwear licenses, and recognized $509,000 for Teva licenses,
approximately $450,000 of which was related to final payments on our terminated apparel, time
pieces, and eyewear licenses. The minimum net annual royalties that we are scheduled to
receive under the remaining existing licensing agreements, assuming renewal options are
exercised, are $485,000 in 2006, $571,000 in 2007, $589,000 in 2008 and $589,000 in 2009. The
activity is very small in relation to the consolidated operations and, therefore, separate
segment information is not presented.

Seasonality
Our business is seasonal, with the highest percentage of Teva net sales occurring in the first
and second quarters of each year and the highest percentage of UGG net sales occurring in the
third and fourth quarters, while the quarter with the highest percentage of annual net sales
for Simple has varied from year to year.

With the dramatic growth in UGG in recent years, combined with the introduction of a Fall Teva
line, net sales in the last half of 2004 exceeded that for the first half of 2004. Given our
expectations for each of our brands in 2005, we currently expect this trend to continue.
Nonetheless, actual results could differ materially depending upon consumer preferences,
whether the UGG brand will continue to grow at the rate it has experienced in the recent past,
availability of product, competition and our customers continuing to carry and promote our
various product lines, among other risks and uncertainties. See “— Forward-Looking
Statements” above.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2005 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2004
Overview. For the three months ended September 30, 2005, we had net sales of $69,193,000 and
income from operations of $14,018,000 compared to net sales of $55,797,000 and income from
operations of $9,358,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2004. These results were
primarily due to a significant increase in UGG sales, partially offset by decreased Teva and
Simple sales. Income from operations increased as a result of the increase in sales as well
as a decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales.
Net Sales. Net sales increased by $13,396,000, or 24.0%, to $69,193,000 for the three months
ended September 30, 2005 from $55,797,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2004. Net
sales increased for the three months ended September 30, 2005 due primarily to an increase in
UGG sales. In addition, the Company’s weighted average wholesale selling price per unit
increased 28.4% to $39.77 for the three months ended September 30, 2005 from $30.97 for the
three months ended September 30, 2004, caused by a significant increase in sales of UGG
products, which generally carry a higher average selling price than sales of other products.
During the quarter, the Company experienced an increase in the number of units sold of UGG,
partially offset by a decline in the number of units sold of Teva and Simple, resulting in a
0.2% overall increase in the volume of footwear sold to 1,684,000 pairs for the three months
ended September 30, 2005 from 1,680,000 pairs for the three months ended September 30, 2004.
Net wholesale sales of Teva decreased by $2,236,000, or 21.0%, to $8,432,000 for the three
months ended September 30, 2005 from $10,668,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2004
due to lower domestic closeout sales and lower international sales compared to the third
quarter last year. See “— Overview — Teva Overview” above.
Net wholesale sales of UGG increased by $20,206,000, or 57.3%, to $55,454,000 for the three
months ended September 30, 2005 from $35,248,000 for the three months ended September 30,
2004, due in part to the initial launch of the new Fashion Collection, driven by the Uptown
and Cargo boots, and the expanded casual offerings, which are helping to further diversify the
UGG product line and attract new customers. In addition, the Company is pleased with the
continued strength in the Classic and Ultra collections, as well as the success that has been
experienced with the slipper collection. The Company was also well positioned with the Fall
and Winter UGG inventory, which the Company brought in much earlier in the year this year than
it did last year in order to ensure more timely deliveries to customers in 2005. As a result,
our inventory availability and more timely deliveries in the third quarter of 2005 further
contributed to our increased sales in both the domestic and international markets, whereas
last year many of the Fall 2004 orders were delivered late and, therefore, did not occur until
the fourth quarter of 2004. See “— Overview — UGG Overview” above.
Net wholesale sales of Simple decreased by $2,540,000, or 56.7%, to $1,941,000 for the three
months ended September 30, 2005 from $4,481,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2004.
This decrease was
largely due to the elimination of the Simple sheep program in late 2004. See “— Overview —
Simple Overview” above.
Net sales of the Internet and catalog retailing business decreased by $2,034,000, or 37.7%, to
$3,366,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2005 from $5,400,000 for the three months
ended September 30, 2004. For the three months ended September 30, 2005, net sales of the
Internet and catalog retailing business included retail sales of Teva of $1,316,000, UGG of
$1,878,000 and Simple of $172,000. For the three months ended September 30, 2004, the
breakdown consisted of sales of Teva of $1,272,000, UGG of $3,980,000 and Simple of $148,000.
The decrease in net sales of the Internet and catalog retailing business occurred due to the
greater availability of UGG product at local retailers in 2005 because our wholesale division
delivered product to retailers more timely in 2005 compared to 2004. See “— Overview —
Internet and Catalog Retailing Overview” above.

International sales for all of our products decreased by $1,550,000, or 14.5%, to
$9,135,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2005 from $10,685,000 for the three months
ended September 30, 2004, representing 13.2% of net sales for the three months ended September
30, 2005 and 19.1% of net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2004. The decrease in
international sales resulted from decreased sales of Teva and Simple product, partially offset
by an increase in UGG international sales.
Gross Profit. Gross profit increased by $6,835,000, or 30.7%, to $29,070,000 for the three
months ended September 30, 2005, from $22,235,000 for the three months ended September 30,
2004. As a percentage of net sales, gross margin was 42.0% for the three months ended
September 30, 2005 compared to 39.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2004 due to a
combination of factors including a reduced impact of closeout sales and inventory write-downs,
the elimination of the airfreight costs incurred in the third quarter of last year, and lower
production overhead cost per pair.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses,
or SG&A, increased by $2,175,000, or 16.9%, to $15,052,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 2005 from $12,877,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2004. As a
percentage of net sales, SG&A decreased to 21.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2005
from 23.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2004. The increase in SG&A expenses was
largely due to the addition of a new distribution center, as well as an increase in bad debts
and commissions expense related to the higher sales volume.
Income from Operations. Income from operations increased by $4,660,000, or 49.8%, to
$14,018,000 in the three-month period ended September 30, 2005 from $9,358,000 in the
three-month period ended September 30, 2004. This was due primarily to the increase in gross
profit as well as the decrease in SG&A expenses as a percentage of sales, as discussed above.
Income from operations of Teva wholesale increased by $843,000, or 211.3%, to $1,242,000 for
the three months ended September 30, 2005 from $399,000 for the three months ended September
30, 2004. This increase was largely due to an increase in gross margin due to a reduced impact
of closeout sales and inventory write- downs, lower selling commissions related to the lower
sales volume and lower marketing costs, partially offset by lower sales and higher bad debt
expense.
Income from operations of UGG wholesale increased by $6,517,000, or 54.6%, to $18,449,000 for
the three months ended September 30, 2005, from $11,932,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 2004. The increase was the result of the higher sales volume, partially offset
by increased closeout sales, higher selling commissions on the higher sales volume and
increased marketing expenses.
Loss from operations of Simple wholesale was $260,000 for the three months ended September 30,
2005 compared to income from operations of $876,000 for the three months ended September 30,
2004. This was primarily due to a $2,540,000 decrease in net sales.
Income from operations of our Internet and catalog business decreased by $559,000, or 49.2%,
to $577,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2005, from $1,136,000 for the three
months ended September 30, 2004. This was largely due to the decrease in net sales of
$2,034,000 during the period, partially offset by lower operating
costs.
Unallocated overhead costs increased by $1,005,000 or 20.2%, to $5,990,000 for the three
months ended September 30, 2005 from $4,985,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2004,
resulting primarily from higher warehousing costs associated with the addition of a new
distribution center as well as the higher sales volume.
Other (Income) Expense. Net interest expense was $167,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 2005, compared with net interest income of $28,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 2004. The interest income in 2004 resulted principally from the investment of
our cash balances, whereas the interest expense in
22
Table of Contents

AND SUBSIDIARIES
AND SUBSIDIARIES
2005 occurred as we accessed our line of credit during the quarter to meet our seasonal
borrowing needs. Other (income) expense exclusive of net interest (income) expense was not
material in either period.
Income
Taxes. For the three months ended September 30, 2005, income tax expense was
$5,701,000, representing an effective income tax rate of 41.2%. For the three months ended
September 30, 2004, income tax expense was $3,559,000 representing an effective income tax
rate of 37.9%. The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily due to a higher projected
annual pre-tax income for our domestic operating unit, which bears a higher tax rate than that
of our international subsidiaries, resulting in a higher blended effective tax rate for the
current year. The effective tax rate is subject to ongoing review and evaluation by
management and can change from quarter to quarter.
Net Income. Our net income increased 40.0% to $8,150,000 from $5,822,000 as a result of
higher gross profit and lower SG&A expenses as a percentage of sales, partially offset by
higher income tax expense resulting from the higher operating income. Our earnings per
diluted share increased 37.0% to $0.63 from $0.46, primarily as a result of the increase in
net income.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2005 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2004
Overview. For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, we had net sales of $173,797,000 and
income from operations of $33,094,000 compared to net sales of $140,615,000 and income from
operations of $28,260,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2004. These results were
primarily due to increased sales of the UGG product line during the first three quarters of
the year, partially offset by a slightly lower gross margin and higher SG&A expenses.
Net Sales. Net sales increased by $33,182,000, or 23.6%, to $173,797,000 for the nine months
ended September 30, 2005 from $140,615,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2004. Net
sales increased for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 due primarily to: (1) an increase
in the number of units sold of Teva and UGG, offset in part by a decline in the number of
units sold of Simple, resulting in a 14.4% overall increase in the volume of footwear sold to
6,478,000 pairs for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 from 5,664,000 pairs for the nine
months ended September 30, 2004, and (2) a 11.1% increase in the weighted average wholesale
selling price per unit to $25.55 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 from $22.99 for
the nine months ended September 30, 2004, caused by an increase in sales of UGG products,
which generally carry higher average selling prices, partially offset by an increase in the
volume of closeout sales during the nine months ended September 30, 2005.
Net wholesale sales of Teva decreased by $2,682,000, or 3.7%, to $69,775,000 for the nine
months ended September 30, 2005 from $72,457,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2004.
This decrease was due to several factors including an unseasonably cold Spring 2005 season,
increased competition, a recent lack of meaningful product innovation, and a decline in sales
in the European market. We are proactively addressing
the situation going forward by dedicating significantly greater resources to product
development, marketing and advertising and the development of a solid international
infrastructure. See “— Overview — Teva Overview” above.
Net wholesale sales of UGG increased by $39,538,000, or 84.7%, to $86,195,000 for the nine
months ended September 30, 2005 from $46,657,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2004,
due to several factors including strong Fall demand and improved delivery in 2005. In
addition, in early 2005, we delivered our first UGG Spring product line; whereas, during the
nine months ended September 30, 2004, we did not offer an UGG Spring product line. Also,
during the first quarter of 2005, we were able to deliver carryover shipments of our 2004 Fall
and Holiday product, whereas, during the first quarter of 2004 there were fewer carryover
shipments from the 2003 Fall and Holiday season and we had a limited amount of product
available to ship. Unlike last year, we currently expect to deliver our Holiday 2005
orders timely in the fourth quarter of 2005, rather than in the following first quarter, which we currently
expect will result in lower UGG sales in the first quarter of 2006 compared to the first quarter of 2005.
Additionally, our sales of UGG products to international markets increased
to $11,009,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 compared to $6,939,000 in the nine
months ended September 30, 2004, primarily
23
Table of Contents
DECKERS OUTDOOR CORPORATION
AND SUBSIDIARIES
AND SUBSIDIARIES
due to on-time deliveries of the Fall 2005 product line; whereas, in 2004, much of the
Fall product was not delivered until the fourth quarter. See “— Overview — UGG Overview”
above.
Net wholesale sales of Simple decreased by $1,647,000, or 21.6%, to $5,989,000 for the nine
months ended September 30, 2005 from $7,636,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2004.
This decrease was largely due to the discontinuation of the Simple sheep product line in late
2004, partially offset by a renewed interest in the Simple brand, including continued growth
in the sales of the Sugar and other sneaker styles as well as our clog offering. See “—
Overview — Simple Overview” above.
Net sales of the Internet and catalog retailing business decreased by $2,027,000, or 14.6%, to
$11,838,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 from $13,865,000 for the nine months
ended September 30, 2004. For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, net sales of the
Internet and catalog retailing business included retail sales of Teva of $4,200,000, UGG of
$6,986,000 and Simple of $652,000. For the nine months ended September 30, 2004, the
breakdown consisted of sales of Teva of $4,018,000, UGG of $9,398,000 and Simple of $449,000.
See “— Overview — Internet and Catalog Retailing Overview” above.
International sales for all of our products increased by $652,000, or 2.3%, to $28,709,000 for
the nine months ended September 30, 2005 from $28,057,000 for the nine months ended September
30, 2004, representing 16.5% of net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and
20.0% of net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2004. The higher dollar amount of
international sales resulted from our sales of more UGG product to the international markets
as our inventory availability allowed us to deliver more of our UGG Fall retail collection
during the nine months ended September 30, 2005; whereas, in the same period a greater
proportion of the UGG Fall retail collection was not available until the fourth quarter of
2004. Because domestic sales increased 28.9% in the first nine months of 2005 compared to the
same period a year ago, our overall international sales as a percentage of net sales decreased
in the first nine months of 2005 compared to the same period in 2004.
Gross Profit. Gross profit increased by $13,059,000, or 21.2%, to $74,606,000 for the nine
months ended September 30, 2005, from $61,547,000 for the nine months ended September 30,
2004. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit margin was 42.9% for the nine months ended
September 30, 2005 compared to 43.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2004. The
decrease in gross margin was the result of increased inventory write-downs, a higher impact of
closeout sales, and a shift in sales mix as a result of the significant increase in net sales
of UGG products, which generally have a lower average gross margin than sales of Teva
products.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses,
or SG&A, increased by $8,225,000, or 24.7%, to $41,512,000 for the nine months ended September
30, 2005 from $33,287,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2004. As a percentage of net
sales, SG&A increased slightly to 23.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 from
23.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2004. The increase in the dollar amount of SG&A
expenses was due to a combination of factors, including higher costs associated with the
addition of a new distribution center since last year, increased
marketing costs, increased selling commissions on higher sales volumes, increased bad debt
expense, and costs related to the Company’s compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act of 2002.
Income from Operations. Income from operations increased by $4,834,000, or 17.1%, to
$33,094,000 in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005 from $28,260,000 in the
nine-month period ended September 30, 2004. This was due primarily to the increase in net
sales, partially offset by lower gross margins and an increase in SG&A expenses, as discussed
above.
Income from operations of Teva wholesale decreased by $813,000, or 3.7%, to $20,896,000 for
the nine months ended September 30, 2005 from $21,709,000 for the nine months ended September
30, 2004. This decrease was largely due to the decreased sales volume as well as higher
marketing and bad debt expense, partially offset by higher gross margins as a result of a
decreased impact of closeout sales and lower selling commissions as a result of the lower
sales volume.

Income from operations of UGG wholesale increased by $11,473,000, or 71.5%, to
$27,511,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, from $16,038,000 for the nine months
ended September 30, 2004. This was largely due to the $39,538,000 increase in net sales,
partially offset by higher selling commissions, marketing costs and bad debt expense related
to the higher sales volume as well as increased inventory write-downs and closeout sales.
Loss from operations of Simple wholesale was $27,000 for the nine months ended September 30,
2005 compared to income from operations of $536,000 for the nine months ended September 30,
2004. This was primarily due to a $1,647,000 decrease in net sales and an increase in bad debt
and marketing expense in this segment, partially offset by a higher gross margin resulting
from lower inventory write-downs and closeout sales.
Income from operations of our Internet and catalog business decreased by $1,158,000, or 31.6%,
to $2,506,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, from $3,664,000 for the nine
months ended September 30, 2004, largely due to the lower sales volume and higher operating
costs for the business.
Unallocated overhead costs increased by $4,105,000, or 30.0%, to $17,792,000 for the nine
months ended September 30, 2005 from $13,687,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2004,
resulting primarily from the addition of a new distribution center, increased warehousing and
shipping costs on the higher sales volume and increased accounting and audit fees associated
with the Company’s compliance with internal controls procedures under Section 404 of the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.
Other (Income) Expense. Net interest expense was $104,000 for the nine months ended September
30, 2005, compared with net interest expense of $2,261,000 for the nine months ended September
30, 2004. The net interest expense in 2004 resulted principally from the borrowings incurred
to finance our purchase of the Teva Rights in November 2002, which we subsequently paid off in
full during the second quarter of 2004. Since the Company had virtually no outstanding
borrowings in the first six months of 2005 but borrowed under its line of credit to meet
seasonal borrowing needs during the third quarter of 2005, the interest income received on the
Company’s excess cash balances was offset by the interest expense due on the outstanding
balance on the credit facility. Other income exclusive of net interest (income) expense was
not material in either period.
Income Taxes. For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, income tax expense was
$13,224,000, representing an effective income tax rate of 40.1%. For the nine months ended
September 30, 2004, income tax expense was $9,708,000 representing an effective income tax
rate of 37.3%. The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily due to a higher projected
annual pre-tax income for our domestic operating unit, which bears a higher tax rate than that
of our international subsidiaries, resulting in a higher blended effective tax rate for the
current year. The effective tax rate is subject to ongoing review and evaluation by
management and can change from quarter to quarter.
Net
Income. Our net income increased 21.3% to $19,769,000 from $16,291,000 as a result of
higher net sales and lower net interest expense, partially offset by lower gross margin and
increased SG&A expenses, as discussed above. Our earnings per diluted share increased 12.4%
to $1.54 from $1.37 as a result of the increase in net income, which was partially offset by
the increase in the weighted average common shares outstanding due to the follow-on public
offering in May 2004.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements other than operating leases. See “— Contractual
Obligations” below. We do not believe that these operating leases are material to our current
or future financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital resources or capital
expenditures.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
We finance our working capital and operating needs using a combination of our cash and cash
equivalents balances, short-term investments, cash generated from operations and the credit
availability under our revolving credit facility.
The seasonality of our business requires us to build inventory levels in anticipation of the
sales for the coming season. Teva generally begins to build inventory levels beginning in the
fourth quarter and first quarter in anticipation of the Spring selling season that occurs in
the first and second quarters, whereas UGG generally builds its inventories in the second
quarter and third quarter to support sales for the Fall and Winter selling seasons, which
historically occur during the third and fourth quarters. In addition, at September 30, 2005,
we increased our UGG inventories significantly compared to the levels at September 30, 2004
in order to better meet demand and ensure more timely deliveries to our retail partners in
the Fall and Winter season this year.
Our cash flow cycle includes the purchase of these inventories, the subsequent sale of the
inventories and the eventual collection of the resulting accounts receivable. As a result,
our working capital requirements begin when we purchase the inventories and continue until we
ultimately collect the resulting receivables. Given the seasonality of our Teva and UGG
brands, our working capital requirements fluctuate significantly throughout the year. The
cash required to fund these working capital fluctuations is generally provided using a
combination of our internal cash flows and borrowings under our revolving credit facility.
Cash from Operating Activities. Net cash used in operating activities was $17,700,000 for the
nine months ended September 30, 2005 compared to net cash provided by operating activities of
$4,172,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2004. The change in net cash from operating
activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 compared to the nine months ended
September 30, 2004 was largely due to an increase in inventories and accounts receivable as
well as a pay down of accrued expenses, partially offset by an improvement in cash collections
during the period. Net working capital improved by $33,298,000 to $103,152,000 as of
September 30, 2005 from $69,854,000 as of December 31, 2004, primarily as a result of earnings
for the period plus $13,200,000 of net borrowings under our line of credit.
Cash From Investing Activities. For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, net cash
provided by investing activities was $11,876,000, which was comprised primarily of the sale of
short-term investments held by the Company at December 31, 2004. The cash generated from the
sale of these short-term investments was partially offset by cash used for capital
expenditures, primarily related to the opening of an additional distribution center, the
replacement and upgrading of certain computer equipment and trade show booths, and the
purchase of promotional vehicles for the Teva marketing team. For the nine months ended
September 30,
2004, net cash used in investing activities was $4,578,000, which consisted primarily of the net
purchase of short-term investments and capital expenditures.
Cash from Financing Activities. For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, net cash
provided by financing activities was $14,460,000 compared to net cash provided by financing
activities of $6,049,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2004. For the nine months
ended September 30, 2005, the net cash provided by financing activities was made up mostly of
cash received from net borrowings under the line of credit as well as cash received from the
exercise of stock options. For the nine months ended September 30, 2004, we received
$36,336,000, primarily related to the net proceeds received from our follow-on public stock
offering and other issuances of common stock, which was used, in part, to pay off all
remaining long-term debt.
Our liquidity consists primarily of cash, trade accounts receivable, inventories and a
revolving credit facility. At September 30, 2005, working capital was $103,152,000 including
$19,081,000 of cash and cash equivalents. Cash used in operating activities aggregated
$17,700,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. Trade accounts receivable increased
by 9.7% to $44,121,000 at September 30, 2005 from $40,226,000 at December

31, 2004, largely due to normal seasonality. Accounts receivable turnover decreased to 6.8 times in the twelve
months ended September 30, 2005 from 8.1 times in the twelve months ended December 31, 2004.
Inventories increased by 120.6% to $66,768,000 at September 30, 2005 from $30,260,000 at
December 31, 2004, reflecting a $43,132,000 increase in UGG inventory, a $7,383,000 decrease
in Teva inventory and a $759,000 increase in Simple inventory. Overall, inventory turnover
decreased to 3.1 times for the twelve months ended September 30, 2005 from 5.5 times for the
twelve months ended December 31, 2004 largely due to increased inventory levels. The
$43,132,000 increase in UGG inventory at September 30, 2005 was due to seasonality, the
continued growth in net sales of the UGG brand, and our continuing efforts to better meet
demand and ensure more timely deliveries to our retail partners in the Fall and Winter season
this year. In addition, whereas last year the independent factories were delivering product
late, they are currently delivering on time and, in some cases, earlier than requested. The
$7,383,000 decrease in Teva inventory occurred largely due to seasonality since most of our
Teva sales occur in the first and second quarters. The $759,000 increase in Simple inventory
at September 30, 2005, compared to December 31, 2004, was largely due to seasonality.
We currently expect our UGG inventory levels to decrease substantially by December 31, 2005 as
we complete our Fall and Winter 2005 season. In addition, whereas we built our inventories
early in 2005 to ensure more timely deliveries for the 2005 season, we currently expect to
build our inventories later in the year in 2006 as we now have significantly more confidence
in the timely supply of UGG product, and we believe we have greatly improved our retailers’
confidence in our ability to deliver product to them on a timely basis. As a result, we
currently expect to improve our cash flow for the remainder of 2005 and the first part of
2006. However, risks and uncertainties that could impact our ability to improve our cash flow
include growth rate, the continued strength of our brands, our ability to respond to changes
in consumer preferences, our ability to collect our receivables in a timely manner, our
ability to effectively manage our inventories and the volume of letters of credit used to
purchase product, among others. See “Forward-Looking Statements” for a discussion of
additional factors that may affect our working capital position.
Our revolving credit facility with Comerica Bank (the “Facility”) provides for a maximum
availability of $25,000,000 for the period from September 6, 2005 to December 6, 2005, and
$20,000,000 for the remainder of the term, subject to a borrowing base. In general, the
borrowing base is equal to 75% of eligible accounts receivable, as defined, and 50% of
eligible inventory, as defined. Up to $10,000,000 of borrowings may be in the form of letters
of credit. The Facility bears interest at the lender’s prime rate (6.75% at September 30,
2005) or, at our option, at LIBOR (3.88% at September 30, 2005) plus 1.0% to 2.5%, depending
on our ratio of liabilities to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization
(“EBITDA”), and is secured by substantially all of our assets. The Facility includes annual
commitment fees, which were $60,000 for 2005. The Facility expires on June 1, 2007. At
September 30, 2005, the Company had outstanding borrowings under the Facility of $13,200,000,
no foreign currency reserves for outstanding forward contracts and outstanding letters of
credit of $52,000, and as a result, $11,748,000 was available under the Facility.
The agreements underlying the bank credit facility contain several financial covenants
including a quick ratio requirement, profitability requirements and a tangible net worth
requirement, among others, as well as a prohibition on the payment of dividends. We were in
compliance with all covenants at September 30, 2005, and remain so as of the date of this
report.
Capital expenditures totaled $3,599,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, and
related primarily to the opening of an additional distribution center, the replacement of
certain computer equipment and trade show booths, as well as the purchase of promotional
vehicles for the Teva marketing team. We currently have no material commitments for future
capital expenditures but estimate that the remaining capital expenditures for 2005 will range
from approximately $700,000 to $900,000 and may include additional costs associated with the
additional distribution center and upgrades of certain other computer equipment. The actual
amount of capital expenditures for the remainder of 2005 may differ from this estimate,
largely depending on any unforeseen needs to replace existing assets and the timing of
expenditures.

We believe that internally generated funds, the available borrowings under our existing credit
facilities and cash on hand will provide sufficient liquidity to enable us to meet our current
and foreseeable working capital requirements. However, risks and uncertainties that could
impact our ability to maintain our cash position include our growth rate, the continued
strength of our brands, our ability to respond to changes in consumer preferences, our ability
to collect our receivables in a timely manner, our ability to effectively manage our
inventories and the volume of letters of credit used to purchase product, among others. See
“Forward-Looking Statements” for a discussion of additional factors that may affect our
working capital position.
Impact of Inflation
We believe that the relatively moderate rates of inflation in recent years have not had a
significant impact on our net sales or profitability.
Critical Accounting Policies
Revenue Recognition. We recognize revenue when products are shipped and the customer takes
title and assumes risk of loss, collection of relevant receivable is probable, persuasive
evidence of an arrangement exists, and the sales price is fixed or determinable. Allowances
for estimated returns, discounts, and bad debts are provided for when related revenue is
recorded. Amounts billed for shipping and handling costs are recorded as a component of net
sales, while the related costs paid to third-party shipping companies are recorded as a cost
of sales.
Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures about
contingent liabilities and the reported amounts of net sales and expenses during the
reporting period. Management bases these estimates and assumptions upon historical
experience, existing, known circumstances, authoritative accounting pronouncements and other
factors that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Management
reasonably could use different estimates and assumptions, and changes in estimates and
assumptions could occur from period to period, with the result in each case being a material
change in the financial statement presentation of our financial
condition or results of operations. We have historically been accurate in our estimates used
for the reserves and allowances below. We believe that the estimates and assumptions below
are among those most important to an understanding of our condensed consolidated financial
statements contained in this report.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts. We provide a reserve against trade accounts receivable
for estimated losses that may result from customers’ inability to pay. We determine the
amount of the reserve by analyzing known uncollectible accounts, aged trade accounts
receivables, economic conditions, historical experience and the customers’
credit-worthiness. Trade accounts receivable that are subsequently determined to be
uncollectible are charged or written off against this reserve. The reserve includes
specific reserves for
28
Table of Contents
DECKERS OUTDOOR CORPORATION
AND SUBSIDIARIES
AND SUBSIDIARIES
accounts which are identified as potentially uncollectible, plus a
non-specific reserve for the balance of accounts based on our historical loss experience.
Reserves have been fully established for all expected or probable losses of this nature.
The gross trade accounts receivable balance was $49,595,000 and the allowance for doubtful
accounts was $2,226,000 at September 30, 2005, compared to gross trade accounts receivable
of $45,238,000 and the allowance for doubtful accounts of $1,796,000 at December 31, 2004.
The increase in the allowance for doubtful accounts at September 30, 2005 compared to
December 31, 2004 was primarily related to the increase in the gross trade accounts
receivable during the period as well as additional reserves established for our domestic
UGG receivables. Our use of different estimates and assumptions in the calculation of our
allowance for doubtful accounts could produce different financial results. For example, a
1.0% change in the rate used to estimate the reserve for the accounts not specifically
identified as uncollectible would change the allowance for doubtful accounts at September
30, 2005 by $330,000.
Reserve for Sales Discounts. A significant portion of our domestic net sales and resulting
trade accounts receivable reflects a discount that the customers may take, generally based
upon meeting certain order, shipment and payment timelines. We estimate the amount of the
discounts that are expected to be taken against the period-end trade accounts receivable
and we record a corresponding reserve for sales discounts. We determine the amount of the
reserve for sales discounts considering the amounts of available discounts in the
period-end accounts receivable aging and historical discount experience, among other
factors. The reserve for sales discounts was approximately $1,699,000 at September 30, 2005
and $1,485,000 at December 31, 2004. The increase in the reserve for sales discounts at
September 30, 2005 compared to December 31, 2004 was primarily due to the increase in the
gross trade accounts receivable during the period. Our use of different estimates and
assumptions could produce different financial results. For example, a 10% change in the
estimate of the percentage of accounts that will ultimately take their discount would
change the reserve for sales discounts at September 30, 2005 by $170,000.
Allowance for Estimated Returns. We record an allowance for anticipated future returns of
goods shipped prior to period-end. In general, we accept returns for damaged or defective
products but discourage returns for other reasons. We base the amount of the allowance on
any approved customer requests for returns, historical returns experience and any recent
events that could result in a change in historical returns rates, among other factors. The
allowance for returns decreased to $1,549,000 at September 30, 2005 from $1,731,000 at
December 31, 2004, primarily as a result of lower net sales in the three months ended
September 30, 2005 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2004. Our use of
different estimates and assumptions could produce different financial results. For example,
a 1.0% change in the rate used to estimate the percentage of sales expected to ultimately
be returned would change the reserve for returns at September 30, 2005 by approximately
$550,000.
Inventory Write-Downs. Inventories are stated at lower of cost or market. We review the
various items in inventory on a regular basis for excess, obsolete and impaired inventory.
In doing so, we write the inventory down to the lower of cost or estimated future net
selling prices. At September 30, 2005, inventories were stated at $66,768,000, net of
inventory write-downs of $2,466,000. At December 31, 2004, inventories were stated at
$30,260,000, net of inventory write-downs of $1,176,000. The increase in the reserve for
inventory write-downs at September 30, 2005 compared to December 31, 2004 was primarily due
to the increase in the related inventory amounts during the period. Our use of different
estimates and assumptions could produce different financial results. For example, a 10%
change in estimated selling prices of our potentially obsolete inventory would change the
inventory write-down amount at September 30, 2005 by approximately $775,000.
Valuation of Goodwill, Intangible and Other Long-Lived Assets. We periodically assess the
impairment of goodwill, intangible and other long-lived assets on a separate asset basis
based on assumptions and judgments regarding the carrying value of these assets
individually. We test goodwill and nonamortizable intangible assets for impairment on an
annual basis based on the fair value of the reporting unit (goodwill)
or
29
Table of Contents
DECKERS OUTDOOR CORPORATION
AND SUBSIDIARIES
AND SUBSIDIARIES
assets (nonamortizable intangibles) compared to its carrying value. We consider other long-lived
assets to be impaired if we determine that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Among
other considerations, we consider the following factors:
| • | the assets’ ability to continue to generate income from operations and positive cash flow in future periods; | ||
| • | our future plans regarding utilization of the assets; | ||
| • | any changes in legal ownership of rights to the assets; and | ||
| • | changes in consumer demand or acceptance of the related brand names, products or features associated with the assets. |
If we consider the assets to be impaired, we recognize an impairment loss equal to the
amount by which the carrying value of the assets exceeds the estimated fair value of the
assets. In addition, as it relates to long-lived assets, we base the useful lives and
related amortization or depreciation expense on the estimate of the period that the assets
will generate sales or otherwise be used by us.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
On October 22, 2004, the American Jobs Creation Act (AJCA) was signed into law. The AJCA
includes a special one-time 85 percent dividends received deduction for certain foreign
earnings that are repatriated. In December 2004, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS
109-2 (FSP FAS 109-2), “Accounting and Disclosure Guidance for the Foreign Earnings
Repatriation Provision within the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004.” FSP FAS 109-2 provides
accounting and disclosure guidance for this repatriation provision. The Company is currently
evaluating the repatriation provisions of AJCA, which if implemented by the Company would
affect the Company’s tax provision and deferred tax assets and liabilities. In the event that
the Company decides to repatriate the overseas cash during the fourth quarter of 2005, it will
result in an increase in the effective tax rate for that quarter. However, given the
uncertainties and complexities of the repatriation provision and the Company’s continuing
evaluation, it is not possible at this time to determine the amount that may be repatriated or
the related potential income tax effects of such repatriation.
In November 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards, or SFAS No.
151, “Inventory Costs — An Amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4”. SFAS No. 151 amends the
guidance in ARB No. 43, Chapter 4, “Inventory Pricing”, to clarify the accounting for abnormal
amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted material (spoilage).
SFAS No. 151 is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005 and is required to be
adopted in the first quarter of fiscal 2006. We do not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 151 to
have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment”. SFAS
No. 123R supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, and requires all share-based payments to employees,
including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based
on their fair values beginning with the first interim or annual period after June 15, 2005.
The pro forma disclosure permitted under SFAS
No.123 will no longer be an alternative to financial statement recognition. SFAS No. 123R
requires the determination of the fair value of the share-based compensation at the grant date
and the recognition of the related expense over the period in which the share-based
compensation vests. In April 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission deferred the
adoption date of SFAS No. 123R to the first interim period in the first fiscal year beginning
after June 15, 2005. The Company is, therefore, required to adopt the provisions of SFAS No.
123R effective January 1, 2006. Note 1 discloses the Company’s pro forma net income under
SFAS No. 123R, which is expected to be comparable to stock compensation pursuant to SFAS No
123R.

In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, a
replacement of Accounting Principles Board Opinion (APB) No. 20, Accounting Changes, and FASB
Statement No. 3, Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements.” This Statement
requires retrospective application to prior periods’ financial statements of a change in
accounting principle. It applies both to voluntary changes and to changes required by an
accounting pronouncement if the pronouncement does not include specific transition provisions.
APB 20 previously required that most voluntary changes in accounting principles be recognized
by recording the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle. SFAS 154 is effective
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The Company will adopt this statement on
January 1, 2006 and it is not expected to have a material effect on the financial statements
upon adoption.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Derivative Instruments
Although we have used foreign currency hedges in the past, we no longer utilize forward
contracts or other derivative instruments to mitigate exposure to fluctuations in the foreign
currency exchange rate as all of our purchases and sales for the foreseeable future will be
denominated in U.S. currency.
Although our sales are denominated in U.S. currency, our sales may be impacted by fluctuations
in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the local currencies in the international
markets where our products are sold. If the United States dollar strengthens, it may result in
increased pricing pressure on our distributors, which may have a negative impact on our net
sales. We are unable to estimate the amount of any impact on sales attributed to pricing
pressures caused by fluctuations in exchange rates.
The majority of our footwear is produced by independent factories located in the People’s
Republic of China (“PRC”). On July 21, 2005, the PRC revalued its currency and abandoned its
peg to the U.S. dollar. All transactions between ourselves and the PRC factories are
currently denominated in U.S. dollars. We are currently assessing the situation and are not
yet able to determine the effect, if any, of the July 21st revaluation or the
probability or potential impact of any future revaluations.
Market Risk
Our market risk exposure with respect to financial instruments is to changes in the “prime
rate” in the U.S. and changes in LIBOR. Our revolving line of credit provides for interest on
outstanding borrowings at rates tied to the prime rate or at our election tied to LIBOR. At
September 30, 2005, we outstanding borrowings under the revolving line of credit of
$13,200,000. A 1.00% increase in interest rates on our current borrowings would have a
$132,000 impact on income before income taxes.
Item 4.
Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, Angel R. Martinez, and
Chief Financial Officer, M. Scott Ash, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our
disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)). Based upon
that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded
that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and
procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level in making known to them in a
timely manner material information relating to us (including our consolidated subsidiaries)
required to be included in this report.
Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and implemented, can provide
only reasonable assurance of achieving an entity’s disclosure objectives. The likelihood of
achieving such objectives is affected by limitations inherent in disclosure controls and
procedures. These include the fact that human judgment in decision-making can be faulty and
that breakdowns in internal control can occur because of human failures such as simple errors,
mistakes or intentional circumvention of the established processes. Our disclosure controls
and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving our disclosure
objectives.
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the
period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to
materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
