`
`O11 March 2, 2007, t11e Company entered into Supplemental Executive Retireinent Agreements (the
`“SERP Agreement(s)”) with Mr. and Ms. Matthias (the “SERP Executives”). The purpose of the SERP
`Agreements was to provide the executives with supplemental pension benefits following their cessation of
`employment.
`The Company’s T). Matthias Transition Agreement, entered into in September 2008 in connection with
`Mr. Matthias’ retirement as CEO, amended his SERP Agreement to provide for full vesting of the benefits
`payable to Mr. Matthias and to increase the total of the amounts payable under the SERP Agreement to
`approximately 10% more than tl1e amount that would have bee11 payable on September 30, 2012 (the date
`the SERP Agreement had otherwise been expected to fully vest). The SERP Agreement benefits, totaling
`$3,960,000, were being paid to Mr. Matthias ir1 installments, wl1icl1 commenced on April 1, 2009, with the
`final installment paid on October 1, 2012. The Company paid SERP benefits to Mr. Matthias totaling
`$600,000, $750,000 and $900,000 in fiscal 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
`The amount of the benefit payable under Ms. Matthias’ SERP Agreement was the actuarial present
`value ofa single life annuity equal to 60% ofMs. Matthias’ “deemed final pay,” commencing upon
`cessation of employment. For this purpose, “deemed final pay” meant Ms. Matthias’ base salary 011
`March 2, 2007, increased by 3% for each new fiscal year that began before Ms. Matthias’ cessation of
`employment. This benefit vested 33 ‘/3 % on March 2, 2007. On each September 30 thereafter for fiscal 2007,
`2008 and 2009 the benefit vested 15% annually based on Ms. Matthias’ continuous full-time service
`provided to the Company during each entire fiscal year. The Cornpany’s R. Matthias Transition
`Agreement, entered into on November 6, 2009 in connection with Ms. Matthias’ scheduled retirement,
`amended her SERP Agreement to provide that she would be credited with having served on a full-time
`basis during the 2010 fiscal year and the SERP vested an additional 15% effective on the Transition Date,
`to a cumulative total vested percentage of 93 1/3 %. Pursuant to the R. Matthias Transition Agreement.
`Ms. Matthias received a lump surri payment ofthe SERP Agreement benefits of$4, 166,000 011 Decerriber 16,
`2010.
`
`The Company accounted for the SERP Agreements in accordance with the accounting requirements
`for defined benefit pension and other post-retirenrent plans. Changes ir1 the benefit obligation under the
`SERP Agreements as of September 30 were as follows (in thousands):

`The Company has a grantor trust, which was established for the purpose of accumulating assets in
`anticipation of the Company’s payment obligations under tl1e SERP Agreements (the “Grantor Trust”).
`The Company’s agreements with the SERP Executives and the trustee for the Grantor Trust (the “Trustee”)
`allowed the Company to make casl1 deposits to the Grantor Trust, or provide an irrevocable standby letter
`of credit (the “SERP Letter of Credit") to the Trustee, in lieu of any deposits otherwise required, for
`funding obligations under the SERP Agreements. In December 2009, in connection with the additional
`vesting and scheduled payment of SERP Executives’ benefits i11 2010, the Company 1I1ade a partial cash
`contribution to the Gra11t0r Trust of $1,500,000, with a corresponding reduction of the SERP Letter of Credit
`to $4,437,000 as of December 31, 2009. In December 2010, the Company received a distribution of the
`remaining assets iii the Grantor Trust totaling $1,504,000. The amount withdrawn was used to partially fund
`the December 2010 lump sum payment of $4,166,000 of SERP benefits to Ms. Matthias. As of September 30,
`2012, the SERP Letter of Credit was $150,000, which was equal to the remaining SERP benefit paid to
`Mr. Matthias on October 1, 2012.

`The Con1pany’s business, like that of other retailers, is seasonal. The Con1pany’s quarterly net sales
`have historically been highest in its third fiscal quarter, corresponding to the peak Spring selling season.
`Given the historically higher sales level in its third fiscal quarter and the relatively fixed nature of most of
`the Company’s operating expenses and interest expense, the Company has typically generated a very
`significant pcrccntagc of its full year operating income and net income during its third fiscal quarter.

`
`a. Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Financial Statement Presentation
`The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its
`direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries: Cave Springs, Inc., Mothers Work Canada, Ir1c., Destination
`Maternity Apparel Private Limited and Mothers Work Services, Inc. All significant intercompany
`transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.
`
`Fiscal Year-End
`
`/1. Fiscal Year-End
`
`The Company operates on a fiscal year ending September 30 of each year. All references to fiscal years
`of the Company refer to the fiscal years ended on September 30 in those years. For example, the
`Company’s “fiscal 2012” ended on September 30, 2012.
`
`Use of Estimates
`
`c. Use of Estimates
`
`Tl1e preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
`the United States requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that may affect the
`reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
`the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
`Actual results could differ from those estimates.
`
`Cash and Cash Equivalents
`
`d. Cash and Cash Equivalents
`
`Cash a11d cash equivalents include cash on hand. cash in the bank and short—term investments with an
`original maturity of three months or less when purchased. Cash overdrafts of $3,45 2,000 and $3,853,000
`were included in accounts payable as of September 30, 2012 a11d 2011, respectively.
`The Company n1air1tair1s cash accounts that, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The
`Company has not experienced any losses from maintaining cash accounts in excess of such limits.
`Management believes that it is not exposed to any significant credit risks 011 its cash accounts.
`
`Inventories
`
`e. Inventories
`
`Property, Plant and Equipment
`
`Intangible Assets
`
`Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by the “first-in, first-out”
`(FIFO) method. Inventories of goods manufactured by the Company include the cost of materials, freight,
`direct labor, and manufacturing and distribution overhead.
`f Property, Plant and Equipment
`
`Property, plant a11d equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are computed for
`financial reporting purposes or1 a straight-line basis, using service lives ranging principally fro111 five to ter1
`years for fiimiture a11d equipment and forty years for the building. Leasehold improvements are amortized
`using the straight-line method over the shorter of the lease term or their useful life. The cost of assets sold
`or retired and the related accumulated depreciation or amortization are removed from the accounts with any
`resulting gain or loss included in net income. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred, except for
`the capitalization of maj or renewals and betterrnents that extend the life of the asset. Long-lived assets are
`reviewed for impairment whenever adverse events, or changes in circumstances or business climate,
`indicate that the carrying value may 11ot be recoverable. Factors used in the evaluation include, but are not
`limited to, management’s plans for future operations, brand initiatives, recent operating results and
`projected cash flows. If the associated undiscounted cash flows are insufficient to support the recorded
`asset, an impairment loss is recognized to reduce the carrying value of the asset. The amount of the
`impairment loss is determined by comparing the fair value of the asset with the carrying value.
`During fiscal 2012, 2011 and 2010, the Company recorded impairment write-downs of property, plant
`and equipment totaling $1,875,000, $759,000 and $1,863,000, respectively, on a pretax basis.
`
`g. Intangible Assets
`Intangible assets with definite useful lives consist primarily ofpatent and lease acquisition costs. The
`Company capitalizcs lcgal costs incurred to dcfcnd its patcnts whcn a successful outcome is deemed
`probable and to the extent of an evident increase in the value of the patents. Intangible assets are
`amortized over the shorter of their useful life or, if applicable, the lease term. Management reviews the
`carrying amount of these intangible assets as impairment indicators arise, to assess the continued
`recoverability based on future undiscounted cash flows and operating results from the related asset, fiiture
`asset utilization and changes in market conditions. During fiscal 2012, 2011 and 2010, the Company
`recorded write-downs of intangible assets totaling $1,000, $9,000 and $2,000, respectively, on a pretax
`basis. 'l'hc Company has not idcntificd any indcfinitc-livcd intangiblc asscts. Aggrcgatc amortization
`expense ofintangible assets in fiscal 2012, 2011 and 2010 was $142,000, $135,000 and S119,000,
`respectively.

`
`The Company mitigated a portion of its floating rate interest risk on variable rate long-term debt
`through an interest rate swap agreement that expired on April 18, 2012. In accordance with applicable
`accounting standards for derivative instruments, the Company recognized the derivative on the balance
`sheet at fair val11e. O11 t11e date the derivative instrument was entered into, the Company designated it as a
`hedge of the variability of cash flows to be received or paid related to a recognized asset or liability (“cash
`flow hedge”). Changes in the fair value ofa derivative that is designated as, and meets all the criteria for, a
`cash flow hedge are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss and reclassified into earnings as
`the underlying hedged item affects ear11ings. When applicable, the Company formally documents the
`relationship betwee11 hedging instrume11ts and hedged items. Also when applicable, the Company formally
`assesses at the inception of the hedge and on a quarterly basis. whether the derivative is highly effective
`in offsetting changes in cash flows of the hedged item. Any portion of the change in fair value of the
`derivative associated with hedge ineffectiveness is included in curre11t earnings. For fiscal 2012, 2011 and
`2010. the Company’s interest rate swap was determined to have no ineffectiveness.
`
`Deferred Financing Costs
`
`i. Deferred Financing Costs
`
`Deferred financing costs are amortized to interest expense over the term of the related debt agreement.
`Amortization expense ofdeferred financing costs in fiscal 2012, 201 l and 2010 was $105,000, $170,000 and
`$196,000, respectively. In connection with debt extinguishments, i11 fiscal 2012, 2011 a11d 2010 the Company
`wrote off $22,000, $37,000 and $51,000. respectively, ofunamortizcd deferred financing costs (see Note 10).
`In connection with its new credit facility entered into on November 1, 2012, the Company incurred
`approximately $825,000 in deferred financing costs. of which $61,000 was paid in fiscal 2012 (see Note 9).
`Estimated amortization expense of the Company’s deferred financing costs as of September 30, 2012
`plus those incurred in November 2012, for the next five fiscal years, is as follows (in thousands):

`Rent expense on operating leases, including rent holidays and scheduled rent increases, is recorded
`on a straight-line basis over the term ofthe lease commencing on the date the Company takes possession
`ofthe leased property, which is generally four to six weeks prior to a store’s opening date. The net excess
`of rent expense over the actual easl1 paid has been recorded as a deferred rent liability in the
`accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. Tenant improvement allowances received from landlords are
`also included in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as deferred rent liabilities and are
`amortized as a reduction ofrent expense over the term ofthe lease from the possession date.

`Instruments
`
`L Fair Value of Finunciul Instruments
`
`The carrying values of cash a11d cash equivalents, trade receivables and accounts payable
`approximate fair value due to the short—terrn nature of those instruments. The majority of the Company’s
`long-term debt bears interest at variable rates, which adjust based o11 market conditions, and the carrying
`value of the long-term debt approximates fair value. The fair value of the Company’s debt was determined
`using a discounted cash flow analysis based on interest rates currently available to the Company or for
`similar instruments available to companies with comparable Credit quality. A significant portion of t11e
`Company’s floating rate interest risk on variable rate long—terrn debt was mitigated through an interest rate
`swap agreement that expired on April 1 8, 201 2. As ofSeptember 30, 201 1, the estimated fair value ofthe
