cautionary notice regarding forward-looking statements
Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q include certain forward-looking statements, which include statements regarding our intent, belief or expectations and all statements other than those made solely with respect to historical fact. Actual results could differ materially from those reflected by the forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and a number of factors may adversely affect the forward-looking statements and our future results, liquidity, capital resources or prospects. These include, but are not limited to, risks related to public health and safety issues, including, for example, risks related to the ongoing novel coronavirus ("COVID-19") pandemic and emergence of variants from the original strain, as well as the timing and availability of effective medical treatments and the ongoing rollout of vaccines in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, (including the public’s acceptance of vaccines), including disruptions to our business, sales, supply chain and financial results, the level of consumer spending on our merchandise and in general, the timing of the re-opening and potentially reclosing of our stores, the timing of in-person back-to-work and back-to-school and sales with respect thereto, the consumer impact of the reduction of government stimulus and tax relief programs, the level and timing of promotional activity necessary to protect our reputation and maintain inventories at appropriate levels, the timing and amount of any share repurchases by us, risks related to doing business internationally, the increasing scope of our non-U.S. operations, the imposition of tariffs on products imported by us or our vendors as well as the ability and costs to move production of products in response to tariffs, our ability to obtain from suppliers products that are in-demand on a timely basis and effectively manage disruptions in product supply or distribution, unfavorable trends in fuel costs, foreign exchange rates, foreign labor and material costs, a disruption in shipping or increase in cost of our imported products, and other factors affecting the cost of products, our dependence on third-party vendors and licensors for the products we sell, the effects of the British decision to exit the European Union and other sources of market weakness in the U.K. and the Republic of Ireland (“ROI”), the effectiveness of our omnichannel initiatives, costs associated with changes in minimum wage and overtime requirements, wage pressure in the U.S. and the U.K., and other inflationary pressures, the evolving regulatory landscape related to our use of social media, the establishment and protection of our intellectual property, weakness in the consumer economy and retail industry, competition and fashion trends in our markets, including trends with respect to the popularity of casual and dress footwear, weakness in shopping mall traffic, any failure to increase sales at our existing stores, given our high fixed expense cost structure, and in our e-commerce businesses, risks related to the potential for terrorist events, changes in buying patterns by significant wholesale customers, changes in consumer preferences, our ability to continue to complete and integrate acquisitions, expand our business and diversify our product base, impairment of goodwill in connection with acquisitions, payment related risks that could increase our operating cost, expose us to fraud or theft, subject us to potential liability and disrupt our business, retained liabilities associated with divestitures of businesses including potential liabilities under leases as the prior tenant or as a guarantor of certain leases, and changes in the timing of holidays or in the onset of seasonal weather affecting period-to-period sales comparisons. Additional factors that could cause differences from expectations include the ability to open additional retail stores, to renew leases in existing stores, to control or lower occupancy costs, and to conduct required remodeling or refurbishment on schedule and at expected expense levels, our ability to realize anticipated cost savings, including rent savings, our ability to realize any anticipated tax benefits, our ability to achieve expected digital gains and gain market share, deterioration in the performance of individual businesses or of our market value relative to our book value, resulting in impairments of fixed assets, operating lease right of use assets or intangible assets or other adverse financial consequences and the timing and amount of such impairments or other consequences, unexpected changes to the market for our shares or for the retail sector in general, costs and reputational harm as a result of disruptions in our business or information technology systems either by security breaches and incidents or by potential problems associated with the implementation of new or upgraded systems, uncertainty regarding the expected phase out of the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"), the cost and outcome of litigation, investigations and environmental matters that involve us, and the impact of actions initiated by activist shareholders.
Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as such statements speak only as of the date they were made and involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events or results to differ materially from the events or results described in the forward-looking statements. The most important factors which could cause our actual results to differ from our forward-looking statements are set forth in our description of risk factors in Item 1A contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 30, 2021, and Item 1A in Part II of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which should be read in conjunction with the forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we do not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statement.
The events described in the forward-looking statements might not occur or might occur to a different extent or at a different time than we have described. As a result, our actual results may differ materially from the results contemplated by these forward-looking statements.
We maintain a website at www.genesco.com where investors and other interested parties may obtain, free of charge, press releases and other information as well as gain access to our periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The information contained on this website should not be considered to be a part of this or any other report filed with or furnished to the SEC.

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes contained in this report are unaudited but reflect all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods of the fiscal year ending January 29, 2022 ("Fiscal 2022") and of the fiscal year ended January 30, 2021 ("Fiscal 2021"). All subsidiaries are consolidated in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the related Notes have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of January 30, 2021 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes for Fiscal 2021, which are contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on March 31, 2021.

New Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2019-12, “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”. This guidance aims to simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles within the current guidance and by clarifying and amending the current guidance. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2020. We adopted ASU No. 2019-12 in the first quarter of Fiscal 2022. This guidance did not have a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

COVID-19
In March 2020, the World Health Organization categorized the outbreak of COVID-19 as a pandemic. To help control the spread of the virus and protect the health and safety of our employees and customers, we temporarily closed or modified operating models and hours of our retail stores in North America, the U.K. and the ROI beginning in March 2020 both in response to governmental requirements including “stay-at-home” orders and similar mandates and voluntarily, beyond the requirements of local government authorities. A portion of our store fleet remained closed during Fiscal 2021 and the first quarter of Fiscal 2022.
Changes made in our operations, including temporary closures, combined with reduced customer traffic due to concerns over COVID-19, resulted in a material impact on our business since then. This prompted us to update our impairment analyses of our retail store portfolios and related lease right-of-use assets. For certain lower-performing stores, we compared the carrying value of store assets to undiscounted cash flows with updated assumptions on near-term profitability. As a result, we recorded a $
We evaluated our goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for indicators of impairment at the end of each quarter of Fiscal 2021 and the quarter ended May 1, 2021. During the first quarter of Fiscal 2021, such evaluation caused us to determine that, when considering the impact of COVID-19, indicators of impairment existed relating to the goodwill associated with Schuh Group and certain other trademarks. Therefore, we updated the goodwill impairment analysis for Schuh Group, and as a result, recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $
We evaluated our remaining tangible assets, particularly accounts receivable and inventory. Our wholesale businesses sell primarily to independent retailers and department stores across the United States. Receivables arising from these sales are not collateralized. Customer credit risk is affected by conditions or occurrences within the economy and the retail industry, such as COVID-19, as well as by customer specific factors. We establish an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other information.
We also record reserves for obsolete and slow-moving inventory and for estimated shrinkage between physical inventory counts. We recorded incremental inventory reserve provisions as a result of excess inventory due to the impact of COVID-19 on retail traffic and demand for certain products. Currently, our remaining closed stores are located primarily in Canada. Depending on the pace of reopening our remaining closed stores as well as future customer behavior, among other factors, we may incur additional inventory reserve provisions.
Since the first quarter of Fiscal 2021, we have withheld certain contractual rent payments generally correlating with time periods when our stores were closed and/or correlating with sales declines from Fiscal 2020. We continue to recognize rent expense in accordance with the contractual terms. We are working with landlords in various markets seeking commercially reasonable lease concessions given the current environment, and while some agreements have been reached, a number of negotiations remain ongoing. In cases where the agreements do not result in a substantial increase in the rights of the lessor or the obligation of the lessee such that the total cash flows of the modified lease are substantially the same or less than the total cash flows of the existing lease, we have not reevaluated the contract terms. For these lease agreements, we have recognized a reduction in variable rent expense in the period that the concession was granted.
On March 27, 2020, the U.S. government enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”), which among other things, provided employer payroll tax credits for wages paid to employees who were unable to work during the COVID-19 pandemic and options to defer payroll tax payments. Based on our evaluation of the CARES Act, we qualified for certain employer payroll tax credits as well as the deferral of payroll and other tax payments in the future, which were treated as government subsidies to offset related operating expenses. During the first quarter of Fiscal 2022 and Fiscal 2021, qualified payroll tax credits reduced our selling and administrative expenses by approximately $

COVID-19, Continued
The COVID-19 pandemic remains a rapidly evolving situation especially in Canada, the U.K. and the ROI. The continuation of the COVID-19 pandemic and emergence of variants from the original strain, its economic impact and actions taken in response thereto, including, without limitation, the timing and availability of effective medical treatments and the ongoing rollout and acceptance of vaccines in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, may result in prolonged or recurring periods of store closures and modified operating schedules and may result in changes in customer behaviors, including a potential reduction in consumer discretionary spending in our stores. These may lead to increased asset recovery and valuation risks, such as impairment of our store and other assets and an inability to realize deferred tax assets due to sustaining losses in certain jurisdictions. The uncertainties in the global economy have and are likely to continue to impact the financial viability of our suppliers, and other business partners, which have interrupted and may continue to interrupt, our supply chain, limit our ability to collect receivables and require other changes to our operations. These and other factors have and may continue to adversely impact our net revenues, gross margins, operating income and earnings per share financial measures.
