CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD‑LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Annual Report contains forward-looking statements. These statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based on our current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding the future of our business, future plans and strategies, and other future conditions. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “predict,” “project,” “potential,” “target,” “will,” “would,” and other similar expressions, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. These forward-looking statements include all matters that are not historical facts. They appear in many places throughout this Annual Report and include statements regarding our intentions, beliefs or current expectations concerning, among other things, our results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, business prospects, growth, strategies, expectations regarding industry trends and the size and growth rates of addressable markets, our business plan and our growth strategies, including plans for expansion to new markets and new products, expectations for seasonal trends, and the industry in which we operate.
Certain assumptions made in preparing the forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Report include:
•our ability to implement our growth strategies;
•our ability to maintain strong business relationships with our customers, suppliers, wholesalers and distributors;
•our ability to keep pace with changing consumer preferences;
•our ability to protect our intellectual property;
•our ability to adapt to changes to our business as a whole due to environmental, social and governance ("ESG") considerations;
•the continued absence of material global supply chain disruptions to our business and our ability to fulfill demand and maintain sufficient inventory levels, which we continue to monitor; and
•the absence of material adverse changes in our industry or the global economy.
By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future. We believe that these risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those described in the “Risk Factors” section of this Annual Report and other risk factors described herein which include, but are not limited to, the following risks:
•we may not open retail stores or expand e-Commerce access on our planned timelines;
•we may be unable to maintain the strength of our brand or to expand our brand to new products and geographies;
•unanticipated changes in the effective tax rate or adverse outcomes from audit examinations of corporate income or other tax returns;
•our indebtedness may adversely affect our financial condition, and we may not be able to refinance or renegotiate such indebtedness on favourable or satisfactory terms;
•an economic downturn and general economic conditions (for example, inflation and rising interest rates) may further affect discretionary consumer spending;
-6-



•we may not be able to satisfy changing consumer preferences;
•global political events, including the impact of political disruptions and protests, which may cause business interruptions;
•our ability to procure high quality raw materials and certain finished goods globally;
•our ability to manage inventory and forecast our inventory need, which we continue to monitor, and to manage our production distribution networks. If our supply exceeds demand, we may be required to take certain actions to reduce inventory which could damage our brand;
•we may not be able to protect or preserve our brand image and proprietary rights globally;
•the success of our business strategy;
•our ability to manage our exposure to data security and cyber security events;
•disruptions to manufacturing and distribution activities due to factors such as operational issues, disruptions in transportation logistic functions or labour shortages or disruptions;
•risks and global disruptions associated with geopolitical events, which may further affect general economic and operating conditions;
•fluctuations in raw material costs, interest rates and currency exchange rates;
•we may be unable to maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting; and
•our ability to successfully execute our Transformation program.
Although we base the forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Report on assumptions that we believe are reasonable, we caution you that actual results and developments (including our results of operations, financial condition and liquidity, and the development of the industry in which we operate) may differ materially from those made in or suggested by the forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Report. Additional impacts may arise that we are not aware of currently. The potential of such additional impacts intensifies the business and operating risks that we face, and should be considered when reading the forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Report. In addition, even if results and developments are consistent with the forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Report, those results and developments may not be indicative of results or developments in subsequent periods. As a result, any or all of our forward-looking statements in this Annual Report may prove to be inaccurate. We have included important factors in the cautionary statements included in this Annual Report on Form 20-F, particularly in Section 3.D of this Annual Report on Form 20-F titled “Risk Factors”, that we believe could cause actual results or events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements that we make. No forward-looking statement is a guarantee of future results. Moreover, we operate in a highly competitive and rapidly changing environment in which new risks often emerge. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make.
You should read this Annual Report and the documents that we reference herein and have filed as exhibits hereto completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. The forward-looking statements contained herein are made as of the date of this Annual Report, and we do not assume any obligation to update any forward-looking statements except as required by applicable laws.

Risks Related to our Business
A downturn in the global economy, including as a result of recent geopolitical events and general economic conditions such as inflation, will likely affect or has substantially affected and will likely continue to affect, consumer purchases of discretionary items, which could materially harm our sales, profitability, and financial condition.
Our sales are significantly affected by changes in discretionary spending by consumers. Many factors outside our control influence and affect the level of consumer spending for discretionary items. These factors include actual and perceived economic conditions, interest and tax rates, inflation, energy prices, the availability of consumer credit, disposable consumer income, consumer indebtedness level, unemployment and consumer confidence in future economic conditions. Consumer purchases of discretionary items, such as our outerwear, tend to decline during recessionary periods when disposable income is lower. During our history, we have experienced recessionary periods, but we cannot predict the effect of future recessionary periods on our sales and profitability. A downturn in the economy in markets in which we sell our products or unfavourable changes related to interest rates, rates of economic growth, fiscal and monetary policies of governments, inflation, deflation, tax rates and policy, unemployment trends, energy prices, and other matters that influence the availability and cost of merchandise, consumer confidence or spending may materially harm our sales, profitability and financial condition.
Recent geopolitical events and general economic conditions, such as rising inflation and interest rates, has led to a slow-down in certain segments of the global economy and affected the amount of discretionary income available for certain consumers to purchase our products. If global economic and financial market conditions persist, our sales could decrease, and our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected. Unstable political conditions, civil unrest, armed conflicts or events of extreme violence, including the ongoing conflicts in the Middle East and Ukraine, and any escalation thereof, and related economic and other retaliatory measures taken by Canada, the United States, the European Union and others,
-8-



may disrupt commerce globally and could negatively affect our business and results of operations. The risk of recession in one or several of the countries where we operate is growing, notably in light of the significant increase of interest and inflation rates, and could further have an adverse impact on our business and results of operations.
Our growth strategy continues to involve expansion of our Direct-to-Consumer (“DTC”) channel, including retail stores and e-Commerce, which may present risks and challenges.
Our business has continued to evolve from one in which we only distributed products on a wholesale basis for resale by others to a multi-channel distribution model. As of March 31, 2024, our DTC channel includes 57 national e-Commerce markets and 68 directly operated permanent retail stores across North America, Europe, and Asia Pacific. Our global DTC expansion has been the largest driver of operational and financial growth historically. We expect this to continue in the future.
Growing our e-Commerce platforms and number of retail stores is essential to our future strategy. This strategy has and will continue to require significant investment in cross-functional operations and management focus, along with investment in supporting technologies and retail store spaces. If we are unable to provide a user-friendly, convenient and consistent experience for our customers, our ability to compete and our results of operations could be adversely affected. In addition, if our e-Commerce platforms or retail store formats do not appeal to our customers, reliably function as designed, or maintain the privacy of customer data, or if we are unable to consistently meet our brand promise to our customers, we may experience a loss of customer confidence or lost sales, or be exposed to fraudulent purchases, which could adversely affect our reputation and results of operations.
To the extent our e-Commerce business grows, we will need an increasing amount of IT infrastructure to continue to satisfy consumer demand and expectations. If we fail to effectively scale and adapt our e-Commerce platform to accommodate increased consumer demand, our business may be subject to interruptions, delays or failures and consumer demand for our products and digital experiences could decline. In the event we fail to successfully respond to these risks, it might adversely affect sales and order flow in our e-Commerce business, as well as adversely impact our reputation and brand.
Furthermore, with our increasing retail footprint, lower profitability levels at new or existing retail stores will adversely affect our margins.
We are also subject to different and evolving local laws and regulatory requirements in the various jurisdictions in which we operate. In particular, we are subject to different and evolving laws and orders governing the operation and marketing of e-Commerce websites, as well as the collection, storage and use of information on consumers interacting with those websites. We may incur additional costs and operational challenges in complying with these laws, and differences in these laws may cause us to operate our businesses differently in different territories. If so, we may incur additional costs and may not fully realize the investment in our global DTC expansion.

Our business depends on our strong brand and reputation, as well as our ability to maintain and enhance our brand.
The Canada Goose name and brand image are integral to the growth of our business, and to the implementation of our strategies for expanding our business. We believe that the brand image we have developed has significantly contributed to the success of our business and is critical to maintaining and expanding our customer base. Maintaining and enhancing our brand may require us to make substantial investments in areas such as product design, store openings and operations, marketing, e-Commerce, community relations and employee training, and these investments may not be successful.
We anticipate that, as our business continues to expand into new markets and new product categories and as the market becomes increasingly competitive, maintaining and enhancing our brand may become difficult and expensive. Conversely, as we penetrate these new markets and our brand becomes more widely available, it could potentially detract from the appeal stemming from the scarcity of our brand. Our brand may also be adversely affected if our public image or reputation is tarnished by negative publicity. In addition, ineffective marketing, product diversion to unauthorized distribution channels, product defects, counterfeit products, unfair labour practices, and failure to protect the intellectual property rights in our brand are some of the potential threats to the strength of our brand, and those and other factors could rapidly and severely diminish consumer confidence in us. Maintaining and enhancing our brand will depend largely on our ability to be a leader in our industry and to continue to offer a range of high-quality products to our customers, which we may not execute successfully. Any of these factors could harm our sales, profitability or financial condition.
A key element of our growth strategy is the expansion of our product offerings into new product categories. We may be unsuccessful in designing products that meet our customers’ expectations for our brand or that are attractive to new customers. If we are unable to anticipate customer preferences or industry changes, or if we are unable to modify our products on a timely basis or expand effectively into new product categories, we may lose customers or fail to gain new customers. Our ability to successfully implement our growth strategy may be affected by the global economic contraction, including as a result of ongoing geopolitical uncertainty and the rising inflationary pressures. As we expand into new geographic markets, consumers in these new markets may be less compelled by our brand image and may not be willing to pay a higher price to purchase our products as compared to traditional outerwear. Our operating results would also suffer if our investments and innovations do not anticipate the needs of our customers, are not appropriately timed with market opportunities or are not effectively brought to market.
Our plans to improve and expand our product offerings may not be successful, and implementation of these plans may divert our operational, managerial and administrative resources, which could harm our competitive position and reduce our revenue and profitability.
In addition to our global DTC expansion plans, we are growing our business by expanding our product offerings outside down-filled jackets, including windwear, rainwear, apparel, fleece, accessories and footwear. The principal risks to our ability to successfully carry out our plans to expand our product offering include:
•the success of new products and new product lines will depend on market demand and there is a risk that new products and new product lines will not deliver expected results, which could negatively impact our future sales and results of operations;
•if our expanded product offerings fail to maintain and enhance our distinctive brand identity, our brand image may be diminished and our sales may decrease;
-10-



•implementation of these plans may divert management’s attention from other aspects of our business and place a strain on our management, operational and financial resources, as well as our information systems; and
•incorporation of novel materials or features into our products may not be accepted by our customers or may be considered inferior to similar products offered by our competitors.
In addition, our ability to successfully carry out our plans to expand our product offerings may be affected by economic and competitive conditions, changes in consumer spending patterns (including reductions in discretionary consumer spending as a result of geopolitical events or general economic downturns) and changes in consumer preferences and styles. These plans could be abandoned, could cost more than anticipated and could divert resources from other areas of our business, any of which could negatively impact our competitive position and reduce our revenue and profitability.
Our success depends on our ability to anticipate trends and to identify and respond to new and changing consumer preferences.
In fiscal 2024, our core outerwear offering represented the majority of our sales. Consumer preferences often change rapidly. Therefore, our business is substantially dependent on our ability to attract customers who are willing to pay a premium for our products. Any future shifts in consumer preferences away from spending for our products would also have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
In addition, we believe that continued increases in sales of outerwear will largely depend on customers continuing to demand technical superiority from their products. If the number of customers demanding outerwear does not continue to increase, or if our customers are not convinced that our products are more functional or stylish than other outerwear alternatives, we may not achieve the level of sales necessary to support new growth platforms and our ability to grow our business will be severely impaired.
Our indebtedness could adversely affect our financial condition.
As of March 31, 2024, we had $203.7m of unused borrowing capacity under our Revolving Facility (as defined below), with no principal amount outstanding, $393.1m of term loans under our Term Loan (as defined below), no amounts owing under the Mainland China Facilities, and $5.4m owing on our Japan Facility (as defined below), for total indebtedness of $398.5m. As at March 31, 2024, cash on hand was $144.9m (April 2, 2023 - $286.5m). We also generally experience significant fluctuations in our aggregate indebtedness and working capital over our operating cycle due to the seasonality in our business. Our debt could have important consequences, including:
•limiting our ability to obtain additional financing to fund future working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions or other general corporate requirements and increasing our cost of borrowing;
•requiring a portion of our cash flow to be dedicated to debt service payments instead of other purposes, thereby reducing the amount of cash flow available for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and other general corporate purposes;
•requiring the net cash proceeds of certain equity offerings to be used to prepay our debt as opposed to being applied for other purposes;
•exposing us to the risk of increased interest rates as certain of our borrowings, including borrowings under our senior secured credit facilities, are at variable rates of interest; and
-11-



•limiting our flexibility in planning for and reacting to changes in the industry in which we compete.
The credit agreements governing our senior secured credit facilities contain a number of restrictive covenants that impose operating and financial restrictions on us, including restrictions on our ability to incur certain liens, make investments and acquisitions, incur or guarantee additional indebtedness, pay dividends or make other distributions in respect of, or repurchase or redeem our shares, or enter into certain other types of contractual arrangements affecting our subsidiaries or indebtedness. In addition, the restrictive covenants in the credit agreement governing our Revolving Facility (as defined below) require us to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio if excess availability under our Revolving Facility (as defined below) falls below a specified threshold.
If we are unable to comply with these restrictions and covenants at times and to the extent they are applicable, including as a result of events beyond our control, we may risk an event of default under the credit facilities, which could accelerate the payment of any amounts then due, and limit our ability to incur future borrowings under the credit facilities, either of which could have a material adverse effect on our business.
Although the credit agreements governing our senior secured credit facilities contain restrictions on the incurrence of additional indebtedness, those restrictions are subject to a number of qualifications and exceptions and the additional indebtedness incurred in compliance with those restrictions could be substantial. We may also seek to amend or refinance one or more of our debt instruments to permit us to finance our growth strategy or improve the terms of our indebtedness.
The markets in which we operate are highly competitive.
The market for outerwear is highly fragmented. We compete against a wide range of brands and retailers. Many of our competitors have significant competitive advantages, including larger and broader customer bases, more established relationships with a broader set of suppliers, greater brand recognition, larger product offering, greater financial resources, more established research and development processes, a longer history of store development, greater marketing resources, more established distribution processes, and other resources which we do not have.
Our competitors may be able to achieve and maintain brand affinity and market share more quickly and effectively than we can. Our competitors may also be able to increase sales in their new and existing markets faster than we can by emphasizing different distribution channels than we can. If we fail to compete with such competitors, our business, financial condition and performance could be materially adversely affected.
Our business could be harmed if we fail to manage our operations and future growth effectively, or if we fail to successfully execute our Transformation Program.
If our operations continue to grow, of which there can be no assurance, we will be required to continue to expand our sales and marketing, product development, manufacturing and distribution functions, to upgrade our management information systems and other processes, and to obtain more space for our expanding administrative support and other personnel. Continued or fluctuating growth could strain our resources, and we could experience operating difficulties, including difficulties in hiring, training and managing an increasing number of employees and manufacturing capacity to produce our products, and delays in production and shipments. These difficulties may result in the erosion of our brand image, divert the attention of management and key employees and impact financial and operational results. In order to continue to expand our DTC channel, we expect to add selling, general & administrative (“SG&A”) expenses and depreciation and amortization expenses to our cost base. These costs,
-12-



which include lease commitments, headcount and capital assets, could result in decreased margins if we are unable to drive commensurate DTC revenue growth.
In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, we launched our Transformation Program with the aim to strengthen the foundation of our company to drive efficient and scalable operations and deliver strong revenue growth, which we believe will contribute to margin expansion over the long-term. This multiphase program includes the following workstreams: the organizational and operating model, stores, production and procurement, product, planning and supply chain, marketing and experience, and technology. If we are unable to successfully execute our Transformation Program, our business, financial condition and performance could be materially adversely affected.
Our financial performance is subject to significant seasonality and variability, which could cause the price of our subordinate voting shares to decline.
Our business is affected by a number of factors common to our industry and by other factors specific to our business model, which drive seasonality and variability. Historically, key metrics, including those related to our growth, profitability and financial condition, have fluctuated significantly across fiscal periods. We expect this to continue in the future.
Consumer purchases of outerwear are naturally heavily concentrated in the Fall / Winter season. As a result, the majority of our DTC revenue is recognized in the third and fourth fiscal quarter. Our wholesale revenue is weighted in the second and third fiscal quarters, when most orders are shipped to wholesale partners in time for the Fall/Winter season. Our net income is typically negative in the first quarter and reduced or negative in the fourth quarter.
Guided by expected demand in both channels, we manufacture on a linear basis throughout the fiscal year, while adding capacity where relevant to our manufacturing network, resulting in the buildup and staging of inventory for future periods. These dynamics cause significant fluctuations in our working capital, cash conversion, and leverage throughout the fiscal year. At certain points in time, our inventory has increased at a significantly higher rate than our historical revenue growth in the same period.
Historical results, especially comparisons across fiscal quarters, should not be considered indicative of the results to be expected for any future periods. In addition to the seasonality of demand for our products, our financial performance is influenced by a number of factors which are difficult to predict and variable in nature. These include input cost volatility, the timing of consumer purchases, and wholesale deliveries, which very often shift between fiscal quarters, demand forecast accuracy, inventory availability, and the evolution of our channel mix, as well as external trends in weather, traffic and discretionary consumer spending.
A number of other factors which are difficult to predict could also affect the seasonality or variability of our financial performance. Therefore, you should not rely on the results of a single fiscal quarter as an indication of our annual results or future performance.
Our success depends on our ability to attract new customers and retain existing customers.
Our success depends, in part, on our ability to attract new customers. In order to expand our customer base, we must appeal to and attract consumers who identify with our brand and products. We have made significant investments in enhancing our brand and attracting new customers. We expect to continue to make significant investments to promote our current products to new customers and new products to current and new customers, including through our e-Commerce platforms and retail store presence. Such marketing investments can be expensive and may not result in increased sales. Further, as our brand becomes more widely known, we may not attract new customers as we have in the past. If we are unable to attract
-13-



enough new customers, or grow revenues from existing customers, we may not be able to increase our sales.
Our operations and business may be adversely affected by global climate trends.
There is increasing concern that a gradual rise in global average temperatures due to increased concentration of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere will cause significant changes in weather patterns around the globe, an increase in the frequency, severity, and duration of extreme weather conditions and natural disasters, and water scarcity and poor water quality. Climate change may also exacerbate challenges relating to the availability and quality of water and raw materials, including those used in the production of our products, and may result in changes in regulations or consumer preferences, which could in turn affect our business, operating results and financial condition. For example, there has been increased focus by governmental and non-governmental organizations, consumers, customers, employees and other stakeholders on products that are sustainably made and other sustainability matters, including responsible sourcing and deforestation, the use of plastic, energy and water, the recyclability or recoverability of packaging and materials transparency, any of which may require us to incur increased costs for additional transparency, due diligence and reporting. These events could also compound adverse economic conditions and impact consumer confidence and discretionary spending. As a result, the effects of climate change are unpredictable and could have a long-term adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Climate change related transition risks are also growing in many countries, as governmental bodies are enacting new legislation and regulations to reduce or mitigate the potential impacts of climate change. If we, our suppliers, or our manufacturers are required to comply with these laws and regulations, or if we choose to take voluntary steps to reduce or mitigate our impact on climate change, we may experience increases in energy, production, transportation, and raw material costs, capital expenditures, or insurance premiums and deductibles. Varied legislation and regulations across jurisdictions may also make it more challenging and affect the costs of compliance with such laws and regulations. Any assessment of the potential impact of future climate change legislation, regulations or industry standards, as well as any international treaties and accords, is uncertain given the wide scope of potential regulatory change.
A significant portion of our business is highly dependent on cold-weather seasons and patterns to generate consumer demand for our products. Consumer demand for our products may be negatively affected to the extent global climate patterns trend warmer, reducing typical patterns of cold-weather events or increasing weather volatility, which could have an adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Unexpected obstacles in new markets may limit our expansion opportunities, which could negatively impact our business and financial performance.
Our growth strategy has led to our expansion into markets outside of North America, including in developing markets. There are varying regulatory environments and market practices in these regions, and such regulations may be unfamiliar to us and we may experience unexpected barriers. It may take us time to penetrate or successfully operate in any new market. In connection with our expansion efforts we may encounter obstacles, including cultural and linguistic differences, differences in regulatory environments, economic or governmental instability, labour practices and market practices, difficulties in keeping abreast of market, business and technical developments, and foreign customers’ tastes and preferences. In developing markets, potential challenges include relatively higher risk of political instability, economic volatility, crime, corruption and social unrest. Such challenges may be exacerbated in many cases by uncertainties regarding how local law is applied and enforced, and with respect to judiciary and administrative mechanism. Health concerns related to COVID-19 still give rise to
-14-



uncertainties, and resurgences in new COVID-19 cases and/or the emergence and progression of new variants could cause governments to reintroduce restrictive measures. Other pandemics, epidemics and health risks could also occur, any of which could reduce traffic, result in temporary or permanent closures of stores, offices, and factories, could negatively impact the flow of goods, as well as the ability of our suppliers to provide us with products and services we need to operate our business. Any such pandemics, epidemics and other health risks could have an adverse effect on the economy and financial markets resulting in a declining level of retail and commercial activity, which could have a negative impact on the demand for, and prices of, our products.
We may also encounter difficulty expanding into new international markets because of limited brand recognition leading to delayed acceptance of our products by customers in these new international markets. In the event we fail to develop our business in new international markets or experience disappointing growth or undertake inadequate management of risks outside of existing markets, this could harm our business and results of operations.
Fluctuations in the price or quality of, or disruptions in the availability of, raw materials used in our products from a limited number of third-party suppliers could cause us to incur increased costs or disrupt our manufacturing processes.
Our products require high quality raw materials, including polyester, nylon, blend fabrics and down. The price of raw materials depends on a wide variety of factors largely beyond the control of Canada Goose. A shortage, delay or interruption of supply for any reason, including by reason of health concerns and global supply chain issues, could negatively impact our sales and have an adverse impact on our financial results.
In addition, while our suppliers, in turn, source from a number of sub-suppliers, we rely on a very small number of direct suppliers for certain raw materials. As a result, any disruption to these relationships could have an adverse effect on our business. Events that adversely affect our suppliers could impair our ability to obtain inventory in the quantities and at the quality that we require. Such events include difficulties or problems with our suppliers’ businesses, finances, labour relations and availability, shipping, ability to import raw materials, increases in labour, fuel and raw material costs, production, weather trends, insurance and reputation, as well as natural disasters, public health emergencies, including epidemics, pandemics and other health concerns, and responsive actions thereto such as border closures, restrictions on product shipments and travel restrictions, or other catastrophic occurrences. A significant slowdown in the retail industry as a whole may also result in bankruptcies or permanent closures of some of our suppliers and other vendors. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that our suppliers will continue to provide fabrics and raw materials or provide products that are consistent with our standards. Finally, raw materials and shipping costs have and may continue to increase as a result of inflation, recent geopolitical uncertainty and supply chain issues. Any such increases could adversely impact our financial performance if we are unable to offset such increases with price increases on our products.
More generally, if we need to replace an existing supplier, additional supplies or additional manufacturing capacity may not be available when required on terms that are acceptable to us, or at all, and any new supplier may not meet our strict quality requirements. In the event we are required to find new sources of supply, we may encounter delays in production, inconsistencies in quality and added costs as a result of the time it takes to train our suppliers and manufacturers in our methods, products and quality control standards. Any delays, interruption or increased costs in the supply of our raw materials could have an adverse effect on our ability to meet customer demand for our products and result in lower sales and profitability both in the short and long-term.
-15-



Significant disruptions in supply from our current sources and disruptions of our supply chain could have a material adverse effect on our operating and financial results.
We generally do not enter into long-term formal written agreements with our suppliers, and typically transact business with our suppliers on an order-by-order basis. There can be no assurance that there will not be a disruption in the supply of raw materials and certain finished goods from current sources or, in the event of a disruption, that we would be able to locate alternative suppliers of materials or finished goods of comparable quality at an acceptable price, or at all. Identifying a suitable supplier is an involved process that requires us to become satisfied with their quality control, responsiveness and service, financial stability and labour and other ethical practices. Any delays, interruption or increased costs in the supply of fabric or manufacture of our products could have an adverse effect on our ability to meet customer demand for our products and result in lower revenue and operating income both in the short and long-term.
Disruptions in our supply chain capabilities, including due to trade restrictions, political instability, severe weather and natural disasters, epidemics, pandemics and other health concerns, war, labour shortages, reduced freight availability and increased costs, port disruptions, rising inflationary pressures and other factors, could impair our ability to distribute or manufacture products. These factors are beyond our control and to the extent we are unable to mitigate the likelihood or potential impact of such events, there could be a material adverse effect on our operating and financial results.
Our business and results of operations could be harmed if we are unable to accurately forecast demand for our products.
To ensure adequate inventory supply, we forecast inventory needs, which are subject to seasonal and quarterly variations in consumer demand. If we fail to accurately forecast demand, we may experience excess inventory levels or a shortage of product. Our ability to forecast accurately has become increasingly important as we have expanded our DTC channel globally and could be affected by many factors outside of our control, including an increase or decrease in consumer demand for our products or for products of our competitors, in the event we fail to accurately forecast consumer acceptance of new products, product introductions by competitors, unanticipated changes in general market conditions and, therefore, consumer spending in the sector (for example, because of unexpected effects on inventory supply and consumer demand), and weakening of economic conditions or consumer confidence in future economic conditions. In our wholesale channel, the majority of orders delivered in a given fiscal year are received in the prior fiscal year, enabling us to manufacture inventory relative to a defined order book. In the DTC channel, we manufacture according to our forecasts of consumer demand. If we overestimate the demand for our products, we could face inventory levels in excess of demand, which could result in inventory write-downs or write-offs and the sale of excess inventory at discounted prices, which would harm our gross margins and our brand management efforts. The potential for overestimation is expected to increase as a larger portion of our sales comes through our DTC channel, and as we expand our product offerings. If we underestimate the demand for our products, we may not be able to produce products to meet demand, and this could result in delays in the shipment of our products and a potential failure to capitalize on demand, as well as damage to our reputation and wholesale partner relationships. In addition, failures to accurately predict the level of demand for our products could harm our profitability and financial condition.
If we are unable to protect or preserve our intellectual property rights, brand image and proprietary rights, our business may be harmed.
We expect that there is a high likelihood that counterfeit products or other products infringing on our intellectual property rights will continue to emerge, seeking to benefit from the consumer
-16-



demand for Canada Goose products. These counterfeit products do not provide the functionality of our products and we believe they are of substantially lower quality, and if customers are not able to differentiate between our products and counterfeit products, this could damage our brand image. In order to protect our brand, we devote significant resources to the registration and protection of our trademarks and to anti-counterfeiting efforts worldwide. We actively pursue entities involved in the trafficking and sale of counterfeit merchandise through legal action or other appropriate measures. In spite of our efforts, counterfeiting still occurs and, if we are unsuccessful in challenging a third-party’s rights related to trademark, copyright or other intellectual property rights, this could adversely affect our future sales, financial condition and results of operations. We cannot guarantee that the actions we have taken to curb counterfeiting and protect our intellectual property will be adequate to protect the brand and prevent counterfeiting in the future or that we will be able to identify and pursue all counterfeiters who may seek to benefit from our brand.
As our business has expanded, our competitors have imitated, and will likely continue to imitate, our product designs and branding, which could harm our business and results of operations. Competitors who manufacture products seeking to imitate our products could divert sales and dilute the value of our brand. We believe our trademarks, copyrights and other intellectual property rights are extremely important to our success and our competitive position.
However, enforcing rights to our intellectual property may be difficult and costly, and we may not be successful in stopping infringement of our intellectual property rights, particularly in foreign countries, which could make it easier for competitors to capture market share. Intellectual property rights necessary to protect our products and brand may also be unavailable or limited in certain countries. Furthermore, our efforts to enforce our trademarks, copyrights and other intellectual property rights may be met with defenses, counterclaims and countersuits attacking the validity and enforceability of our trademark and other intellectual property rights. Continued sales of competing products by our competitors could harm our brand and adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Labour-related matters, including labour disputes, may adversely affect our operations.
As of March 31, 2024, approximately 37% of our employees are members of labour unions, comprised of active employees at 6 of our 10 operated manufacturing and warehouse facilities (comprised of 8 manufacturing facilities, 1 warehouse facility and 1 Baffin manufacturing facility). The exposure to unionized labour in our workforce presents an increased risk of strikes and other labour disputes, and our ability to alter labour costs will be subject to collective bargaining, which could adversely affect our results of operations. In addition, potential labour disputes at independent factories where our goods are produced, shipping ports, or transportation carriers create risks for our business, particularly if a dispute results in work slowdowns, lockouts, strikes or other disruptions during our peak manufacturing, shipping and selling seasons. Any potential labour dispute, either in our own operations or in those of third parties, on whom we rely, could materially affect our costs, decrease our sales, harm our reputation or otherwise negatively affect our sales, profitability or financial condition.
The majority of our workforce is composed of manufacturing employees based in the provinces of Ontario, Manitoba and Qu  bec, a sizeable portion of whom are paid minimum wage rates based on the applicable provincial minimum wage, as well as a number of other benefits including variable pay components. Many jurisdictions, including certain Canadian provinces, either have increased or plan to increase their minimum wage and other benefits requirements, which may materially increase our manufacturing costs. Minimum wage increases such as the foregoing may not only increase the wages of our minimum wage employees, but also the wages paid to our other hourly or salaried employees who, in recognition of their tenure, performance, responsibilities and other similar considerations, historically received a rate of pay
-17-



exceeding the applicable minimum wage. Further, if we fail to pay such higher wages, we could suffer increased employee turnover. It is difficult to predict when such increases may take place and any such increase could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
Further, the risks to our business due to a pandemic or other public health emergency, such as the recent COVID-19 pandemic, include risks to employee health and safety, prolonged restrictive measures put in place in order to control the crisis and limitations on travel, which may result in temporary shortages of staff or unavailability of certain employees or consultants with key expertise or knowledge of our business and, impact on workforce productivity.
We rely significantly on information technology systems for our distribution systems and other critical business functions, and are increasing our reliance on these functions as our DTC channel expands. Any failure, inadequacy, or interruption of those systems could harm our ability to operate our business effectively.
We rely on information systems to effectively manage all aspects of our business, including merchandise planning, manufacturing, allocation, distribution, sales and financial reporting. Our reliance on these systems, and their importance to our business, will continue to increase as we expand our DTC channel and global operations. We rely on a number of third parties to help us effectively manage these systems. If information systems we rely on fail to perform as expected, our business could be disrupted. The failure by us or our vendors to manage and operate our information technology systems as expected could disrupt our business, result in not providing adequate product, losing sales or market share, and reputational harm, causing our business to suffer. Any such failure or disruption could have a material adverse effect on our business.
Our information technology systems and vendors also may be vulnerable to damage or interruption from circumstances beyond our or their control, including fire, flood, natural disasters, systems failures, network or communications failures, power outages, public health emergencies, security breaches, cyber-attacks and terrorism. For example, we have implemented a hybrid work-from-home policy for our corporate workforce in North America and Europe. This increase in working remotely could increase our cyber security risk, create data accessibility concerns, and make us more susceptible to communication disruptions, any of which could adversely impact our business operations. We maintain disaster recovery procedures intended to mitigate the risks associated with such events, but there is no guarantee that these procedures will be adequate in any particular circumstance. As a result, such an event could materially disrupt, and have a material adverse effect on, our business.
A portion of our sales are to wholesale partners, directly and through distributors, and we depend on them to display and present our products to customers in our wholesale channel. Our failure or inadvertent failure to maintain our relationships with our existing wholesale partners could harm our business.
A portion of our sales are made to wholesale partners, either directly or indirectly, through distributors. Our wholesale partners service customers by stocking and displaying our products and explaining our product attributes. We have progressively shifted sales from our wholesale channel to our DTC channel to drive sustainable growth, better control our brand, and manage relationships with our customers. Nevertheless, our relationships with our existing wholesale partners are important to the authenticity of our brand and the marketing programs we continue to deploy.
If we fail to maintain relationships with our existing wholesale partners, they could decide to emphasize products from our competitors, to redeploy their retail floor space to other product categories, or to take other actions that reduce their purchases of our products. We do not receive long-term purchase commitments from our wholesale partners, and confirmed orders
-18-



received from our wholesale partners may be difficult to enforce. Factors that could affect our ability to maintain our sales to these wholesale partners include: (a) failure to accurately identify the needs of our customers; (b) lack of customer acceptance of new products, product expansions or changes in products (including the ceasing of the use of fur in our products); (c) unwillingness of our wholesale partners and customers to attribute premium value to our new or existing products or product expansions relative to competing products; (d) failure to obtain shelf space from our wholesale partners; and (e) new, well-received product introductions by competitors. If we lose any of our existing wholesale partners, or if they reduce their purchases of our existing or new products, or their number of stores or operations are reduced, or they promote products of our competitors over ours, or they suffer financial difficulty or insolvency, our sales and profitability could be harmed. Financial difficulties experienced by our existing wholesale partners could further harm our business.
We cannot ensure that our wholesale partners will continue to purchase and carry our products in accordance with current practices or carry any new products that we develop. The recent decline in the overall retail sector, including disruptions related to the recent COVID-19 pandemic, has been challenging for our wholesale partners. Such conditions, among other things, have resulted, and in the future may result, in financial difficulties leading to restructurings, bankruptcies, liquidations and other unfavorable events for our wholesale partners and may cause such partners to reduce or discontinue orders of our products or be unable to pay us for products they have purchased from us. This has caused us to negotiate shortened payment terms and reduce credit limits in certain cases. If the overall retail environment continues to decline or if one or more of our existing wholesale partners is unable or unwilling to meet our payment terms, our business and results of operations could be harmed.
Our marketing programs, our e-Commerce initiatives and our collection, use and disclosure of transactional and personal information about our customers are governed by an evolving set of laws and enforcement trends and changes in those laws or trends. Our failure or inadvertent failure to comply with existing or future laws, could substantially harm our business and results of operations.
We collect, process, disclose, maintain and otherwise use data, including personal information about individuals, including data available to us through online activities and other customer interactions in our business. Our current and future marketing programs may depend on our ability to collect, maintain, disclose and otherwise use this information, and our ability to do so is subject to evolving and increasingly demanding international, U.S., Canadian, Chinese, European legislation, jurisprudence, and regulatory guidelines such as the European Union’s General Data Privacy Regulation, Canada’s Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act and China’s Personal Information Protection Law. In Canada and the United States multiple provinces and states have implemented personal information protection legislation. These information and privacy laws require companies to satisfy new data governance requirements including implementing appropriate security measures to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the personal information and allowing data subjects, depending on the jurisdiction, the right to access, correct or delete such data about themselves. Failure to comply with the data protection regulatory landscape could result in significant penalties. Companies are also facing an increasing number of class actions from consumer groups that claim loss or misuse of their personal information.
Although we strive to comply with all applicable laws and other security requirements related to privacy and information security, it is possible that these requirements are inconsistent from one jurisdiction to another. They may conflict with other rules or inadvertently not be reflected by our practices, our employees’ behaviour or our agreements with business partners. If so, we may suffer damage to our reputation and be subject to proceedings or actions against us by
-19-



governmental entities or private parties, including a class of plaintiffs in the event of a class action. Any such proceeding or action could hurt our reputation, force us to spend significant amounts to defend our practices, distract our management or otherwise have an adverse effect on our business.
We post our privacy policies and practices concerning the collection, use and disclosure of personal information on our websites. Any failure by us to comply with our posted privacy policies or other privacy-related laws and regulations could result in proceedings which could potentially harm our business. In addition, certain of our marketing practices rely upon the sending of commercial electronic messages, including e-mails, to communicate with consumers. We may face risk if our use of commercial electronic messages is found to violate applicable laws and regulations. As information and privacy laws and anti-spam laws change, we may incur additional costs to ensure we remain in compliance. If information and data privacy laws and anti-spam laws become more restrictive at the international, federal, provincial or state levels, our compliance costs may increase, our ability to effectively engage customers via personalized marketing may decrease, our investment in our e-Commerce platform may not be fully realized, our opportunities for growth may be curtailed by our compliance burden and our potential reputational harm or liability for breaches may increase.
Data security breaches and other cyber security events could result in disruption to our operations or financial losses and could negatively affect our reputation, credibility and business.
We and our service providers are subject to risks associated with data security breaches and other cyber security events. We collect, process, maintain and use personal information relating to our customers and employees. We also disclose personal information about consumers and employees to third party service providers, who help us with our business operations, including the operation of our e-Commerce site and the provision of various social media tools and websites we use as part of our marketing strategy. Any attempted or actual unauthorized disclosure of personal information could harm our reputation and credibility, reduce our e-Commerce sales, impair our ability to attract website visitors, reduce our ability to attract and retain customers and could result in litigation, including class action lawsuits, against us or the imposition of significant fines or penalties.
Our online activities, including our e-Commerce websites, may also be subject to denial of service or other forms of cyber-attacks. While we have taken measures we believe are reasonable to protect against those types of attacks, those measures may not adequately protect our online activities from such attacks. If a denial of service attack or other cyber event were to affect our e-Commerce sites or other information technology systems, our business could be disrupted, we may lose sales or valuable data, and our reputation, results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected. Additionally, new and evolving data protection legislation could impose more onerous requirements that could increase the risks associated with data security breaches.
We have procedures and technology in place designed to safeguard our customers’ debit and credit cards and our customers’ and employees’ other personal information under our control, and we continue to devote significant resources to network security, backup and disaster recovery, and other security measures. Nevertheless, these security measures cannot provide absolute security or guarantee that we will be successful in preventing and responding to breaches, loss, theft, or unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use, or modification of personal information under our control.
As consumers are gaining more data privacy awareness, in the future there may be new foreign, federal, provincial and state laws and legislative proposals addressing data privacy and security, as well as increased data protection obligations imposed on merchants by credit card issuers.
-20-



As a result, we may become subject to more extensive requirements to protect the personal information that we collect, use and disclose, resulting in, for example, increased compliance costs.
A significant portion of our business functions operate out of our headquarters in Toronto. As a result, our business is vulnerable to disruptions due to local weather, economics and other factors.
Most of our significant business functions reside at our headquarters in Toronto, Canada. Events such as public health emergencies, including epidemics and pandemics, extreme local weather, natural disasters, transportation strikes, acts of terrorism, significant economic disruptions or unexpected damage to the facility have resulted and could result in an unexpected disruption to our business as a whole. If a disruption of this type should occur, our ability to conduct our business could be adversely affected or interrupted entirely and adversely affect our financial and operating results.
Our success is substantially dependent on the continued service of our senior management.
Our success is substantially dependent on the continued service of our senior management, including Dani Reiss, who is our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. The loss of the services of our senior management could make it more difficult to successfully operate our business and achieve our business goals. We also may be unable to retain existing management, technical, sales and client support personnel that are critical to our success, which could result in harm to our customer and employee relationships, loss of key information, expertise or know-how and unanticipated recruitment and training costs.
We have not obtained key man life insurance policies on any members of our senior management team. As a result, we would not be protected against the associated financial loss if we were to lose the services of members of our senior management team.
Talent management, employee retention and experience are important factors in our success.
Our future success also depends on our ability to attract, develop, and retain talent with the necessary knowledge, skills and experience and establish a positive work culture to maintain operations and institutional knowledge, and ensure we are competitive in our industry. Competition for experienced and well-qualified personnel is intense amidst a tight labour market with labour shortages and increased wage expectations. We, or the suppliers and service providers we rely on, may not be successful in attracting, hiring and retaining such personnel, which could impact our ability to remain competitive or operate efficiently and effectively. If we are unable to retain, hire, attract and motivate talented employees with the appropriate skill sets, or if changes to our organizational structure, operating results, or business model adversely affect morale or retention, we may not achieve our objectives and our results of operations could be adversely impacted.
We rely on credit card processors to receive payments, and are subject to payment-related risks.
For our DTC sales, as well as for sales to certain wholesale partners, we accept a variety of payment methods, including credit cards, debit cards and electronic funds transfers. Accordingly, we are, and will continue to be, subject to significant and evolving regulations and compliance requirements relating to payment card processing. This includes laws governing the collection, processing and storage of sensitive consumer information, as well as industry requirements such as the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (“PCI-DSS”). These laws and obligations may require us to implement enhanced authentication and payment
-21-



processes that could result in increased costs and liability, and reduce the ease of use of certain payment methods. For certain payment methods, including credit and debit cards, we pay interchange and other fees, which may increase over time. We rely on independent service providers for payment processing, including credit and debit cards. If these independent service providers become unwilling or unable to provide these services to us or if the cost of using these providers increases, our business could be harmed. We are also subject to payment card association operating rules and agreements, including PCI-DSS, certification requirements and rules governing electronic funds transfers, which could change or be reinterpreted to make it difficult or impossible for us to comply. If we fail to comply with these rules or requirements, or if our data security systems are breached or compromised, we may be liable for losses incurred by card issuing banks or consumers, subject to fines and higher transaction fees, lose our ability to accept credit or debit card payments from our consumers, or process electronic fund transfers or facilitate other types of payments. Any failure to comply could significantly harm our brand, reputation, business, and results of operations.
Increased scrutiny from investors and others regarding our environmental, social, governance, or sustainability responsibilities could result in additional costs or risks and adversely impact our reputation, employee retention, and willingness of customers and suppliers to do business with us.
Investor advocacy groups, certain institutional investors, investment funds, other market participants, stockholders, current and prospective employees, and customers have focused increasingly on the ESG or “sustainability” practices of companies, including those associated with climate change. These parties have placed increased importance on the implications of the social cost of their investments. If our ESG practices do not meet investor or other industry stakeholder expectations and standards, which continue to evolve, our brand, reputation and employee retention may be negatively impacted based on an assessment of our ESG practices. Any sustainability report which we publish or other sustainability disclosures we make may include our policies and practices on a variety of social and ethical matters, including corporate governance, environmental compliance, employee health and safety practices, human capital management, product quality, supply chain management, and workforce inclusion and diversity. For instance, we have ceased the use of fur in our products and, in fiscal 2022, we achieved certification under Responsible Down Standard, which stipulates that all down is a by-product of the poultry industry. Nonetheless, it is possible that stakeholders may not be satisfied with our ESG practices or the speed of their adoption. We could also incur additional costs and require additional resources to monitor, report, and comply with various ESG practices, including the integration of ESG into our financial reporting in due course. Further, our failure, or perceived failure, to meet the standards included in any sustainability disclosure could negatively impact our reputation, employee retention, and the willingness of our customers and suppliers to do business with us.
If our independent manufacturers or our suppliers fail to use ethical business practices and fail to comply with changing laws and regulations or our applicable guidelines, our brand image could be harmed due to negative publicity.
Our core values, which include developing the highest quality products while operating with integrity, are an important component of our brand image, which makes our reputation sensitive to allegations of unethical or improper business practices, whether real or perceived. We have no or limited control over our suppliers and manufacturers or their business practices. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee their compliance with our guidelines or the law. A lack of compliance could lead to reduced sales or recalls or damage to our brand or cause us to seek
-22-



alternative suppliers, which could increase our costs and result in delayed delivery of our products, product shortages or other disruptions of our operations.
In addition, many of our products include materials that are heavily regulated in many jurisdictions. Certain jurisdictions in which we sell have various regulations related to manufacturing processes and the chemical content of our products, including their component parts. Monitoring compliance by our manufacturers and suppliers is complicated, and we are reliant on their compliance reporting in order to comply with regulations applicable to our products. This is further complicated by the fact that expectations of ethical business practices continually evolve and may be substantially more demanding than applicable legal requirements. Ethical business practices are also driven in part by legal developments and by diverse groups active in publicizing and organizing public responses to perceived ethical shortcomings. Accordingly, we cannot predict how such regulations or expectations might develop in the future and cannot be certain that our guidelines or current practices would satisfy all parties who are active in monitoring our products or other business practices worldwide.
Our current and future products may experience quality problems from time to time that can result in negative publicity, litigation, product recalls and warranty claims, which could result in decreased revenue and operating margin, and harm to our brand.
There can be no assurance we will be able to detect, prevent, or fix all defects that may affect our products. Failure to detect, prevent, or fix defects, or the occurrence of real or perceived quality, health or safety problems or material defects in our current and future products, could result in a variety of consequences, including a greater number of product returns than expected from customers and our wholesale partners, litigation, product recalls, and credit, warranty or other claims, among others, which could harm our brand, sales, profitability and financial condition. We stand behind every Canada Goose product with a warranty against defects with reasonable use, for the expected lifetime of the product. Because of this comprehensive warranty, quality problems could lead to increased warranty costs, and divert the attention of our manufacturing facilities. Such problems could hurt our premium brand image, which is critical to maintaining and expanding our business. Any negative publicity or lawsuits filed against us related to the perceived quality and safety of our products could harm our brand and decrease demand for our products.
Our business could be adversely affected by protestors or activists.
Our products may include certain animal products, including goose and duck down in our outerwear and we previously included coyote fur on the hoods of some of our parkas, which has drawn the attention of animal welfare activists. As a result, we have been the target of protestors and activists in the past, including litigation commenced by such activists related to our use of certain animal products. While we ended the purchase of all fur at the end of 2021 and ceased manufacturing with fur at the end of 2022, we may continue to be targeted by protestors and activists in the future. We have been, and may in the future, also be impacted by widespread protests in any country or region that we trade.
Protestors can disrupt sales at our stores, cause or prolong store closures, and lead to property damage. Protestors can also use social media or other campaigns to sway public opinion against our products. In addition, such activism could influence laws or regulations applicable to the jurisdictions in which we operate, including laws and regulations related to the use of animal by-products. If any such activists are successful, our sales and results of operations may be adversely affected.
-23-



The cost of raw materials could increase our cost of goods sold and cause our results of operations and financial condition to suffer.
The raw materials used in our supply chain include synthetic fabrics and natural products, including blend fabrics, nylon, polyester and down. Significant price fluctuations, including as a result of inflation, or shortages in the cost of these raw materials may increase our cost of goods sold and cause our results of operations and financial condition to suffer.
Additionally, increasing costs of labour, freight and energy could increase our and our suppliers’ cost of goods. If our suppliers are affected by increases in their costs of labour, freight and energy, (for example, because of rising global energy prices, increased global worker shortages impacting shipping and ports, truck driver shortages, increased congestion or other disruptions affecting the global distribution chain) they may attempt to pass these cost increases on to us. If we pay such increases, we may not be able to offset them through increases in our pricing, which could adversely affect our results of operation and financial condition.
Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates could harm our results of operations as well as the price of our subordinate voting shares.
The presentation currency for our consolidated financial statements is the Canadian dollar. Because we recognize sales in U.S. dollars, Euros, British pounds sterling, Swiss francs, Swedish kronor, Hong Kong dollars, Chinese yuan, and Japanese yen, if any of these currencies weakens against the Canadian dollar it would have a negative impact on our local operating results upon translation of those results into Canadian dollars for the purposes of financial statement consolidation. Although we engage in short-term hedging transactions for a portion of our foreign currency denominated cash flows to mitigate foreign exchange risks, depending upon changes in future currency rates, including those fluctuations derived from the broader impact on the global economy caused by rising inflationary pressures, rising interest rates and geopolitical uncertainty, such gains or losses could have a significant, and potentially adverse, effect on our results of operations. Foreign exchange variations have been significant in the past and current foreign exchange rates may not be indicative of future exchange rates. Significant variations in foreign exchange rates may also make hedging contracts ineffective for hedge accounting purposes in future periods.
Our earnings per share are reported in Canadian dollars, and accordingly may be translated into U.S. dollars by analysts or our investors. As a result, the perceived value of an investment in our subordinate voting shares to a U.S. shareholder will fluctuate as the U.S. dollar rises and falls against the Canadian dollar. As a result, U.S. and other shareholders seeking U.S. dollar total returns, including increases in the share price, are subject to foreign exchange risk as the U.S. dollar fluctuates in value against the Canadian dollar.
Political uncertainty and an increase in trade protectionism could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operation and financial condition.
As a prominent Canadian brand, geopolitical events that involve Canada may have an impact on our business and share price. In addition, our brand and Canadian heritage may be detrimental to the company in the context of geopolitical disputes aimed at Canada or actors or situations with significant actual or perceived connection to Canada. We sell a significant portion of our products to customers outside of Canada and changes, potential changes or uncertainties in regulatory and economic conditions or laws and policies governing foreign trade, manufacturing, and development and investment in the territories and countries where we operate, could adversely affect our business and consolidated financial statements. Consumer sentiment in countries outside Canada may be affected by unforeseen factors leading to harm to our brand or may impact our business. Any potential or ongoing governmental action related to tariffs or international trade agreements has the potential to adversely impact demand for our
-24-



products, our costs, customers, suppliers and/or the Canadian, U.S. or world economy or certain sectors thereof and, thus, to adversely impact our business.
We could be adversely affected by violations of the Canadian Corruption of Foreign Public Officials Act, the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and similar worldwide anti-bribery and anti-kickback laws.
We conduct our business in Canada and increasingly outside Canada, including the sourcing of an increasingly significant portion of our products from outside Canada. The Canadian Corruption of Foreign Public Officials Act, the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the U.K. Bribery Act and other similar anti-bribery and anti-kickback laws and regulations generally prohibit companies and their intermediaries from making improper payments government officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. While we take steps to ensure that our distributors, consultant and personnel comply with applicable law, we cannot assure you that we will be successful in preventing our employees or other agents from taking actions in violation of these laws or regulations. Such violations, or allegations of such violations, could disrupt our business and result in a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
We have been and may become involved in legal or regulatory proceedings and audits.
Litigation and other claims may arise in the ordinary course of our business and may include employee and client claims, commercial disputes involving business partners and clients, landlord-tenant disputes, intellectual property disputes, product-oriented allegations and personal injury claims. These claims can raise complex factual and legal issues that are subject to risks and uncertainties and could require significant management time. Moreover, our business requires compliance with many laws and regulations, including labour and employment, sales and other taxes, customs, and consumer protection laws and ordinances that regulate retailers generally and/or govern the importation, promotion and sale of merchandise, and the operation of stores and warehouse facilities. Failure to comply with these laws and regulations could subject us to lawsuits and other proceedings, and could also lead to damage awards, fines and penalties.
We have in the past and may become involved in legal proceedings or audits, including commercial, contractual, employment, tort and other litigation, and other government and agency investigations. The outcome of some of these legal proceedings, audits, and other contingencies could require us to take, or refrain from taking, actions that could harm our operations or require us to pay substantial amounts of money, harming our financial condition. Additionally, defending against these lawsuits and proceedings may be necessary, which could result in substantial costs and diversion of management’s attention and resources, harming our financial condition. There can be no assurance that any pending or future legal or regulatory proceedings and audits will not harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We are subject to many hazards and operational risks that can disrupt our business, some of which may not be insured or fully covered by insurance.
Our operations are subject to many hazards and operational risks inherent to our business, including: general business risks, product liability, false or misleading advertising claims, product recall and damage to third parties, our infrastructure or properties caused by fires, floods and other natural disasters, power losses, telecommunications failures, terrorist attacks, public health emergencies (including epidemics and pandemics, such as the recent COVID-19 pandemic), cyber security events, human errors, political instability, social and labour unrest or war and similar events.
Our insurance coverage may exclude or may be inadequate to cover our liabilities related to such hazards or operational risks. In addition, we may not be able to maintain adequate
-25-



insurance in the future at rates we consider reasonable and commercially justifiable, and insurance may not continue to be available on terms as favorable as our current arrangements. The occurrence of a significant uninsured claim, or a claim in excess of the insurance coverage limits maintained by us could harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Furthermore, our inability to successfully recover should we experience a disaster or other business continuity problem could cause material financial loss, loss of human capital, regulatory actions, reputational harm, or legal liability.
We may be subject to in-store and workplace health and safety liability, claims and penalties.
We are committed to protecting the health and well-being of our customers and employees in all of our stores and workplaces. We have workplace and in-store health and safety programs in place and have established policies and procedures aimed at ensuring compliance with applicable legislative requirements within our stores. Failure to comply with established policies and procedures or applicable legislative requirements could result in increased workplace or in-store injury-related liability and penalties. Any workplace or in-store injuries could lead to claims or litigation being brought against our company, which could adversely affect the reputation of our company and could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. Although we maintain insurance policies we deem sufficient to address those situations, there is no guarantee a particular claim would be accepted by the insurer or that the insurance coverage would be sufficient.
Any failure to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting could have a material adverse effect on our ability to produce accurate and timely financial statements, which could harm our operating results, financial condition, and cash flows, our ability to operate our business and our reputation.
The process of designing and implementing effective internal controls is a continuous effort that requires us to anticipate and react to changes in our business and to expend resources to maintain a system of internal controls that is adequate to satisfy our reporting obligations as a public company. The measures we take may not be sufficient to satisfy our obligations as a public company and if we are unable to establish or maintain appropriate internal financial reporting controls and procedures, it could cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations on a timely basis, result in material misstatements in our consolidated financial statements and harm our results of operations.
We cannot provide assurances that material weaknesses or significant deficiencies will not occur in the future and that we will be able to remediate such weaknesses or deficiencies in a timely manner, which could have a material adverse effect on our ability to produce accurate and timely financial statements, which could harm our operating results, financial condition, and cash flows, our ability to operate our business and our reputation.
If we identify any material weakness in the future, it could negatively impact the company’s ability to prepare its future financial statements in conformity with IFRS. If the company were unable to prepare its future financial statements in conformity with IFRS, we may be unable to report our financial results accurately, which could increase operating costs, trigger an event of default under our credit agreements and harm our business, including our investors’ perception of our business, our share price and our ability to finance our operations.

Risks Related to Our Subordinate Voting Shares
The dual-class structure contained in our articles has the effect of concentrating voting control and the ability to influence corporate matters with Bain Capital and our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, who held our shares prior to our initial public offering.
Our multiple voting shares have 10 votes per share and our subordinate voting shares have 1 vote per share. As of March 31, 2024, shareholders who hold multiple voting shares (Bain Capital and our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (including their respective affiliates)), together hold approximately 91.8% of the voting power of our outstanding voting shares and therefore have significant influence over our management and affairs and over all matters requiring shareholder approval, including the election of directors and significant corporate transactions.
In addition, because of the 10-to-1 voting ratio between our multiple voting shares and subordinate voting shares, the holders of our multiple voting shares will control a majority of the combined voting power of our voting shares even where the multiple voting shares represent a substantially reduced percentage of our total outstanding shares. The concentrated voting control of holders of our multiple voting shares limits the ability of holders of our subordinate voting shares to influence corporate matters for the foreseeable future, including the election of directors as well as with respect to decisions regarding amending of our share capital, creating and issuing additional classes of shares, making significant acquisitions, selling significant assets or parts of our business, merging with other companies and undertaking other significant transactions. As a result, holders of multiple voting shares will have the ability to influence or control many matters affecting us and actions may be taken that holders of our subordinate voting shares may not view as beneficial. The market price of our subordinate voting shares could be adversely affected due to the significant influence and voting power of the holders of multiple voting shares. Additionally, the significant voting interest of holders of multiple voting shares may discourage transactions involving a change of control, including transactions in which an investor, as a holder of the subordinate voting shares, might otherwise receive a premium for the subordinate voting shares over the then-current market price, or discourage competing proposals if a going private transaction is proposed by one or more holders of multiple voting shares.
Future transfers by holders of multiple voting shares, other than permitted transfers to such holders’ respective affiliates or direct family members or to other permitted holders, will result in those shares automatically converting to subordinate voting shares, which will have the effect, over time, of increasing the relative voting power of those holders of multiple voting shares who retain their multiple voting shares.
Bain Capital is expected to continue to have significant influence over us in the future, including control over decisions that require the approval of shareholders, which could limit shareholders’ ability to influence the outcome of matters submitted to shareholders for a vote.
We are currently controlled by Bain Capital. As of March 31, 2024, Bain Capital beneficially owned approximately 60.5% of our outstanding multiple voting shares, or approximately 55.6% of the combined voting power of our multiple voting shares and subordinate voting shares outstanding. In addition, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer beneficially owns approximately 39.5% of our outstanding multiple voting shares, or approximately 36.2% of the combined voting power of our multiple voting shares and outstanding voting shares. As long as Bain Capital owns or controls at least a majority of our outstanding voting power, it will have the ability to exercise substantial control over all corporate actions requiring shareholder approval, irrespective of how our other shareholders may vote, including the election and removal of directors and the size of our board of directors, any amendment of our notice of articles and
-27-



articles, or the approval of any merger or other significant corporate transaction, including a sale of substantially all of our assets. Even if its ownership falls below 50% of the voting power of our outstanding multiple voting shares and subordinate voting shares, Bain Capital will continue to be able to strongly influence or effectively control our decisions. Bain Capital’s multiple voting shares convert automatically to subordinate voting shares at the time that Bain Capital and its affiliates no longer beneficially own at least 15% of the outstanding subordinate voting shares and multiple voting shares on a non-diluted basis. Even once Bain Capital’s multiple voting shares convert into subordinate voting shares, we may continue to be a controlled company so long as an entity controlled by our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer continues to hold multiple voting shares.
Additionally, Bain Capital’s interests may not align with the interests of our other shareholders. Bain Capital is in the business of making investments in companies and may acquire and hold interests in businesses that compete directly or indirectly with us. Bain Capital may also pursue acquisition opportunities that may be complementary to our business, and, as a result, those acquisition opportunities may not be available to us.
We are a controlled company within the meaning of the NYSE listing rules and, as a result, will qualify for, and intend to rely on, exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements. Our shareholders will not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to such requirements.
We are a controlled company within the meaning of the corporate governance standards of the NYSE. Under these rules, a company of which more than 50% of the voting power for the election of directors is held by an individual, group or another company is a controlled company and may elect not to comply with certain corporate governance requirements, including the requirements that:
•we have a compensation committee that is composed entirely of independent directors; and
•we have a nominating and governance committee that is composed entirely of independent directors.
As a foreign private issuer, we are exempt from certain U.S. securities law disclosure requirements that apply to a domestic U.S. issuer, which may limit the information publicly available to our shareholders.
As a foreign private issuer we are not required to comply with all of the periodic disclosure and current reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”) and therefore there may be less publicly available information about us than if we were a U.S. domestic issuer. For example, we are not subject to the proxy rules in the United States and disclosure with respect to our annual meetings and any special meeting of shareholders will be governed by Canadian requirements. In addition, our officers, directors and principal shareholders are exempt from the reporting and short-swing profit recovery provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the rules thereunder. Furthermore, as a foreign private issuer, we may take advantage of certain provisions in the NYSE listing rules that allow us to follow Canadian law for certain governance matters.
Our articles, and certain Canadian legislation contain provisions that may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control.
Certain provisions of our articles, together or separately, could discourage potential acquisition proposals, delay or prevent a change in control and limit the price that certain investors may be willing to pay for our subordinate voting shares. For instance, our articles contain provisions that establish certain advance notice procedures for nomination of candidates for election as
-28-



directors at shareholders’ meetings. A non-Canadian must file an application for review with the Minister responsible for the Investment Canada Act and obtain approval of the Minister prior to acquiring control of a “Canadian business” within the meaning of the Investment Canada Act, where prescribed financial thresholds are exceeded. Furthermore, acquisitions of our subordinate voting shares and multiple voting shares may be reviewed pursuant to the Competition Act (Canada). This legislation permits the Commissioner of Competition, or Commissioner, to review any acquisition or establishment, directly or indirectly, including through the acquisition of shares, of control over or of a significant interest in us. Otherwise, there are no limitations either under the laws of Canada or British Columbia, or in our articles on the rights of non-Canadians to hold or vote our subordinate voting shares and multiple voting shares. Any of these provisions may discourage a potential acquirer from proposing or completing a transaction that may have otherwise presented a premium to our shareholders.
Because we are a corporation incorporated in British Columbia and some of our directors and officers are resident in Canada, it may be difficult for investors in the United States to enforce civil liabilities against us based solely upon the federal securities laws of the United States. Similarly, it may be difficult for Canadian investors to enforce civil liabilities against our directors and officers residing outside of Canada.
We are a corporation incorporated under the laws of British Columbia with our principal place of business in Toronto, Canada. Some of our directors and officers and the auditors or other experts named herein are residents of Canada and all or a substantial portion of our assets and those of such persons are located outside the United States. Consequently, it may be difficult for U.S. investors to effect service of process within the United States upon us or our directors or officers or such auditors who are not residents of the United States, or to realize in the United States upon judgments of courts of the United States predicated upon civil liabilities under the Securities Act. Investors should not assume that Canadian courts: (1) would enforce judgments of U.S. courts obtained in actions against us or such persons predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws or the securities or blue sky laws of any state within the United States or (2) would enforce, in original actions, liabilities against us or such persons predicated upon the U.S. federal securities laws or any such state securities or blue sky laws.
Similarly, some of our directors and officers are residents of countries other than Canada and all or a substantial portion of the assets of such persons are located outside Canada. As a result, it may be difficult for Canadian investors to initiate a lawsuit within Canada against these non-Canadian residents. In addition, it may not be possible for Canadian investors to collect from these non-Canadian residents judgments obtained in courts in Canada predicated on the civil liability provisions of securities legislation of certain of the provinces and territories of Canada. It may also be difficult for Canadian investors to succeed in a lawsuit in the United States, based solely on violations of Canadian securities laws.
Changes in tax laws and regulations or trade rules may impact our effective tax rate and may adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results.
We are subject to income taxes in the jurisdictions in which we operate and, consequently, income tax expense is a function of the allocation of taxable income by jurisdiction and the various activities that impact the timing of taxable events.
Legislation implementing the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development’s (OECD) model rules outlining a structure for a new 15% global minimum tax regime (the “Pillar Two Rules”) has been enacted or substantively enacted locally in a number of jurisdictions in which the Company operates in, where they would be effective for the financial year beginning on April 1, 2024. Based on a preliminary assessment, the Pillar Two Rules effective tax rate in most of the jurisdictions in which the Company operates in, is already above 15%. As a result,
-29-



any impact of these rules is not expected to be material. However, the Company will continue to monitor and reassess the impact of the Pillar Two Rules and any change may impact our financial condition and operating results.
Changes in tax laws in any of the multiple jurisdictions in which we operate, or adverse outcomes from tax audits that we may be subject to in any of the jurisdictions in which we operate, could result in an unfavorable change in our effective tax rate, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results.
There can be no assurance that we will not be a passive foreign investment company, or PFIC, for U.S. federal income tax purposes for any taxable year, which could result in adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. Holders of our ordinary shares.
Under United States federal income tax laws, a non-U.S. corporation will be a passive foreign investment company (a “PFIC”) for any taxable year if either (1) at least 75% of its gross income for such year consists of certain types of “passive” income; or (2) at least 50% of the value of its assets (based on an average of the quarterly values of the assets) during such year is attributable to assets that produce passive income or are held for the production of passive income. We do not believe that we were a PFIC in 2022, and we do not expect to be a PFIC in the foreseeable future. However, since the determination of whether we are a PFIC is a factual determination made annually based on all the facts and circumstances and thus is subject to change, and the principles and methodology used in determining whether a company is a PFIC are subject to interpretation, there can be no assurance given in this regard. Moreover, we cannot guarantee that the Internal Revenue Service, or IRS, will agree with our conclusion. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that we will not be treated as a PFIC for any taxable year or that the IRS will not take a position contrary to any position we take. United States holders of our subordinate voting shares are urged to consult their tax advisors concerning United States federal income tax consequences of holding our subordinate voting shares if we are considered to be a PFIC.
If we were to be or become a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder (as defined in “Item 10. Additional Information—E. Taxation.”) holds our subordinate voting shares, certain adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences could apply to such U.S. Holder. See “Item 10. Additional Information—E. Taxation—Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations.”
Canada Goose Holdings Inc. is a holding company with no operations of its own and, as such, it depends on its subsidiary for cash to fund its operations and expenses, including future dividend payments, if any.
As a holding company, our principal source of cash flow is distributions from our main operating subsidiary, Canada Goose Inc. Therefore, our ability to fund and conduct our business, service our debt and pay dividends, if any, in the future will depend on the ability of our subsidiary to generate sufficient cash flow to make upstream cash distributions to us. Our subsidiary is a separate legal entity, and although it is wholly-owned and controlled by us, it has no obligation to make any funds available to us, whether in the form of loans, dividends or otherwise. The ability of our subsidiary to distribute cash to us will also be subject to, among other things, restrictions that may be contained in our subsidiary agreements (as entered into from time to time), availability of sufficient funds in such subsidiary and applicable laws and regulatory restrictions. Claims of any creditors of our subsidiary generally will have priority as to the assets of such subsidiary over our claims and claims of our creditors and shareholders. To the extent the ability of our subsidiary to distribute dividends or other payments to us is limited in any way, our ability to fund and conduct our business, service our debt and pay dividends, if any, could be harmed.

If securities or industry analysts cease publishing research or reports about us, our business or our market, or if they change their recommendations regarding our subordinate voting shares adversely, the price and trading volume of our subordinate voting shares could decline.
The trading market for our subordinate voting shares is influenced by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts publish about us, our business, our market or our competitors. If any of the analysts who cover us or may cover us in the future change their recommendation regarding our subordinate voting shares adversely, or provide more favorable relative recommendations about our competitors, the price of our subordinate voting shares may decline. If any analyst who covers us or may cover us in the future were to cease coverage of our company or fail to regularly publish reports on us, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause the price or trading volume of our subordinate voting shares to decline.
Our constating documents permit us to issue an unlimited number of subordinate voting shares and multiple voting shares without additional shareholder approval.
We may, from time to time, issue additional subordinate voting shares in the future. Subject to the requirements of the NYSE and the TSX, we will not be required to obtain the approval of shareholders for the issuance of additional subordinate voting shares. Although the rules of the TSX generally prohibit us from issuing additional multiple voting shares, there may be certain circumstances where additional multiple voting shares may be issued, including upon receiving shareholder approval. Any further issuances of subordinate voting shares or multiple voting shares will result in immediate dilution to existing shareholders and may have an adverse effect on the value of their shareholdings. Additionally, any further issuances of multiple voting shares may significantly lessen the combined voting power of our subordinate voting shares due to the 10-to-1 voting ratio between our multiple voting shares and subordinate voting shares.
ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY
delete
A. History
In December 2013, we partnered with Bain Capital through a sale of a 70% equity interest in our business. In connection with such sale, Canada Goose Holdings Inc. was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the “BCBCA”) on November 21, 2013. The initial public offering of our subordinate voting shares in the United States and Canada was completed on March 21, 2017.
In November 2018, we acquired the business of Baffin Inc. (“Baffin”), a Canadian designer and manufacturer of performance outdoor and industrial footwear. Field-tested and trusted in extreme cold weather conditions, Baffin products are predominantly sold through distributors and retailers in Canada and the United States. As a wholly-owned subsidiary, Baffin is managed and operated on a stand-alone basis, with distinct products, sales channels, and customers.
In 2020, Canada Goose announced HUMANATURE, its purpose platform that unites its sustainability and values-based initiatives.
In April 2022, we entered into an agreement to form a joint venture with Sazaby League, Ltd. pursuant to which we acquired 50% of the issued and outstanding voting shares of the legal entity comprising the joint venture, Canada Goose Japan, K.K. (“CG Japan”). CG Japan markets, distributes, and sells Canada Goose products in Japan. It also operates a number of directly operated stores across Japan, a national digital commerce site, as well as wholesale points of distribution across the country.

B. Business Overview
Canada Goose is a performance luxury outerwear, apparel, footwear, and accessories brand. For more than 60 years, we have designed, manufactured, and sold products that inspire people to thrive in the world outside. CloseFounded in 1957 in Toronto, Canada, our products are designed with purpose, inspired by a rich heritage of functionality, craftsmanship, and innovation.
We believe the following differentiators are primary drivers of Canada Goose’s historical success and are the foundation on which to build for the future.
Our deep heritage and brand authenticity. Leveraging decades of experience, field testing, and obsessive attention to detail, we develop high-quality luxury and lifestyle products designed to protect from weather elements, offer stylish comfort, and provide an overall sense of well-being.
Relentless innovation and product evolution. Our expertise in matching our technical fabrics with the optimal blends of down enables us to create warmer, lighter, more durable, and versatile products across seasons and applications. Our commitment to superior quality and lasting performance now also extends into our emerging product categories, including apparel, rain and wind outerwear, footwear, and accessories.
Strong Canadian manufacturing capabilities. We are committed to investing in producing most of our down-filled products in Canada, the country from which we draw our inspiration. Our Canadian production facilities and craftspeople allow us to deliver high-quality, functional products, which we believe has set us apart on the international stage and in the minds of our customers. As we expand our product categories, we intend to manufacture our products in the regions we believe are best equipped to meet our high standards of quality and craftsmanship. In fiscal 2024, the majority of our goods were manufactured in Canada, including nearly all of our down-filled outerwear.
Vertically integrated supply chain. We directly control the design, innovation, engineering, and testing of our products, which we believe allows us to achieve greater operating efficiencies and deliver high-quality products. We manage our production through a combination of in-house manufacturing facilities and long-standing relationships with third-party sub-contractors. Our flexible supply chain gives us distinct advantages, including the ability to scale our operations, adapt to customer demand, shorten product development cycles, and achieve higher margins.
Our strategic positioning is underpinned by:
Increasingly controlled distribution through a primarily Direct-to-Consumer sales channel. Our products are sold directly to consumers around the world through our brick-and-
-32-



mortar and online stores, as well as to wholesale distributors. We have progressively shifted sales from our wholesale channel to our DTC channel to drive sustainable growth, better control our brand, and manage relationships with our customers.
Our sustainability practices. Canada Goose is committed to contributing to a more sustainable future – one that supports the long-term success of our business, our communities, and the environment. Our commitment is reflected in how we conduct responsible business, including the selection and sourcing of materials, our manufacturing, distribution, and store operations, and how we nurture our talent and impact our communities. See Sustainability section for more information.
Growth Strategies
Canada Goose is on a journey to become a leading global luxury and lifestyle brand that reflects our unique qualities and rich heritage. We intend to maintain our leading position in warm outerwear, preserving our brand’s strength in performance and function, and enhancing the exclusivity of the brand as we build our product architecture to attract and retain more customers throughout the year. In fiscal 2024, we focused on the following themes:
Build a global retail network
Our Direct-to-Consumer store network has grown from one retail store in Canada in 2016 to 68 stores at the end of fiscal 2024 spanning 13 markets. In addition, we have a direct e-Commerce presence in more than 50 markets. Together, through complementary digital and retail experiences, we aim to offer customers a seamless omnichannel experience.
We see opportunity in multiple new markets and expect to increase our DTC penetration within existing markets, with a focus on improving sales per square foot in our existing stores and selecting locations that offer the optimal mix of traffic, adjacencies, and economics. See DTC channel section for more detail.
Drive customer-focused growth
We are broadening our appeal and how we engage with our target customer segments through our brand and marketing campaigns, partnerships, and elevated shopping experiences. We are also improving brand clarity by strengthening the connection between our brand campaigns and our products. See Brand and Marketing section for more information.
Product expansion
As a product-led, function-first brand, we expect to continue to evolve and expand our offering across styles, uses, and seasons as we seek to drive higher penetration and expand our geographic appeal. In May 2024, we announced the appointment of our first ever Creative Director, Haider Ackermann, who, alongside Dani Reiss, is tasked with leading the evolution of our product portfolio and elevation of the Canada Goose brand.
We intend to deliver year-round relevance consistent with Canada Goose’s position as a luxury and lifestyle brand. While continuing to grow our heavyweight down product category, we also intend to focus on emerging product lines such as rainwear, apparel and footwear and the addition of further categories. See Our Products section for more detail.
Advance our Transformation Program
In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, we launched our Transformation Program to strengthen the foundation of our company to drive efficient and scalable operations and deliver strong revenue growth, contributing to margin expansion over the long-term. This multiphase program includes the following workstreams: the organization and operating model, stores, production and procurement, product, planning and supply chain, marketing and experience, and technology.
-33-



In fiscal 2024, key initiatives executed against these workstreams were as follows:
•Organization and operational model. We undertook a significant review of the organizational structure and roles needed to achieve our objectives of simplifying decision-making, moving with agility, and increasing efficiencies across our operating platform. This resulted in a streamlining of the organization, including two phases of workforce reductions implemented in August 2023 and March 2024.
•Stores. We introduced new labour planning tools to optimize scheduling in our retail stores and implemented new tools and training to enhance our customer experience both in-store and online.
•Production and procurement. We completed the consolidation of one of our manufacturing facilities in Montreal to improve the efficiencies in our supply chain and continued to apply LEAN methodology driving further efficiencies in our plants. We also in-housed production, counter sourced our raw materials, and established new production partnerships in Europe.
•Product, planning, and supply chain. We implemented enhanced merchandising planning and practices to support optimal placement of product according to the demand relevant for each store location. In addition, we optimized our distribution network focusing on continuous improvement initiatives, merged smaller warehouses into larger facilities and strengthened our transportation services.
In fiscal 2025, we will operationalize the workstreams of our Transformation Program into three key operating imperatives to deliver progress and measurement. These include implementing best-in-class luxury retail operations, setting the foundation for the next phase of brand and product evolution, and simplifying and focusing the way we operate internally.
Our Products
Our products are designed with expertise with a focus on function and style. The products we manufacture and sell are marketed under the Company’s brands: Canada Goose and Baffin. Further, following the acquisition of Romanian-based Paola Confectii Manufacturing in fiscal 2024, we, through our Paola Confectii subsidiary, manufacture for and supply products to select leading luxury and lifestyle brands.
We offer customers main collections plus a number of capsule collections and collaborations. The collections include a high proportion of continuative products, which are generally sold across seasons with minimal style changes, are highly distinctive, and are recognized as iconic products. Our capsule collections are mainly inspired by regional artists and local traditions, while our product collaborations leverage partnerships that help to drive brand heat and cultural relevancy with new and diverse audiences.
Our products include heavyweight down, lightweight down, other outerwear such as for rain and wind, apparel, and footwear and accessories. Revenue from heavyweight down products represented 54% of our total revenue in fiscal 2024 (57% in fiscal 2023).
Canada Goose created the Thermal Experience Index (TEI), an easy-to-understand five point system that enables customers to make an informed choice in their search for the right parka, jacket, or knitwear for a specific environment and activity. It works using a scale, in which 1 indicates the lightest insulation (e.g. shells, lightweight down for active pursuits) and 5 indicates the warmest parkas we make.
-34-



Heavyweight down – our Heavyweight down products include styles designed to protect individuals in temperatures below -10 degrees Celsius and range from traditional to contemporary pieces. These products are given a TEI rating between 3 and 5.
Lightweight down – our Lightweight down products include a variety of styles designed to be worn in temperatures above -15 degrees Celsius. These products are given a TEI rating between 1 to 3.
Other outerwear – our other outerwear products include rain and everyday collections, jackets for everyday occasions, fleece, and vests.
Apparel – our apparel products include men’s and women’s leisure wear, including knitwear, sweats, and t-shirts.
Footwear and Accessories – our footwear and accessories products encompass men’s, women’s, and children’s products, including sneakers, boots, hats, scarves, gloves, hood trims, socks, and bags. In fiscal 2024, we launched our sneaker line.
Our Sales Channels and Key Markets
The channels through which we interact and sell to our customers have evolved over time to align with the evolution of our brand position from a pure performance and functional brand to a luxury and lifestyle brand. We have moved along the continuum from wholesale toward a primarily direct-to-consumer retail channel to deepen relationships with our customers through direct experience with the brand, capture more of our sales data to improve our products and customer experiences, manage our inventory through controlled distribution, and elevate the overall brand. In addition, we leverage alternative channels, including friends and family and employee sales to aid with exiting slow-moving and discontinued inventory and make room to offer new products in our stores. Sales via these alternative channels are reported under the Other segment.
The proportion of sales through our DTC and Wholesale channels varies by region.

DTC Channel
We operate our business using an omnichannel strategy that aims to deliver a seamless and consistent experience to our customers across our direct channels, regardless of whether customers are shopping for products in our physical stores or online. Our current omnichannel capabilities include buy-online-return-in-store and endless aisle.
We also continue to develop our retail capabilities to enhance the shopping experience and deepen our relationships with our customers.
-35-



Retail Stores
We strive to provide an immersive experience in our stores where consumers can engage with our brand and products.
In fiscal 2024, we introduced our new customer experience program, Canadian Warmth, primarily delivered in our retail stores. Canadian Warmth provides a distinctive approach to the guest experience through the conversations that our brand ambassadors have with guests, their expert guidance as customers explore product, and the attention provided to our customers as they are guided to the right purchase to serve their needs. The objective of Canadian Warmth is to educate customers about our brand and products, nurture desire for the brand, and improve sales conversion through a distinctive elevated luxury retail experience.
We have expanded our retail network in a strategic and selective manner with a portfolio of stores in premier locations. We do not employ a one-size-fits-all approach, with the determination of store size, location, and product assortment based on local demand factors and our overarching global company strategy.
We operate the following types of retail stores:
Permanent stores represent the vast majority of our store network and are located either in premier shopping malls or as standalone stores. The end-to-end store experience including store design, merchandising, and customer service is owned and operated by us. We have three types of permanent stores.
•Flagship. Flagship stores are our lead stores and typically are our largest stores by size, conveying the fullest expression of the brand, showcasing the most unique products, design, and technology. They offer a comprehensive product assortment and typically include our award-winning snow or cold rooms. As of March 31, 2024, we operated four flagship stores (one in Canada, one in the United Kingdom, and two in Asia Pacific).
•Branded. Our branded stores are generally smaller in size than our flagship stores and carry an assortment of products based on the store’s size, location, and customer preferences. Some branded stores include our cold rooms. Most of the stores in our global retail network are branded stores. As of March 31, 2024, we operated 61 branded stores.
•Concessions. Our concession stores, which are located on department store premises, have the smallest footprint among our retail store types. As of March 31, 2024, we operated three concessions, located in Asia Pacific.
We also operate pop-up and temporary stores that are opened seasonally and typically for less than a year. These stores enable us to test and learn in new markets before opening a permanent store and/or serve our customers during peak shopping periods at new or existing locations. The product assortment in these stores is tailored to the store’s size, local relevance, and demand.
As at March 31, 2024, our DTC segment by geography included the following directly operated permanent retail stores:

3.Approximate net selling square footage at the end of the fiscal year.
We opened 17 net new permanent stores in fiscal 2024 and ended the fiscal year with 68 permanent retail stores in 13 markets globally and 83 total stores, including temporary and pop-up stores, totaling approximately 201,720 square feet at March 31, 2024 compared with approximately 150,550 square feet at April 2, 2023.
Our average sales per square foot1, was $3,963 and $3,964 for fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, respectively. Sales per square foot is calculated using total revenue from our DTC retail stores that have been open for the full 52 weeks of the fiscal year divided by average net selling space. Average net selling space is defined as the sum of a store’s selling square footage at the end of each month divided by 12 fiscal periods. Revenue from our directly operated retail stores represented approximately 74% and 67% of total DTC channel revenue in fiscal 2024 and fiscal, 2023, respectively.
E-Commerce
E-Commerce channels include both directly-owned brand websites as well as third-party digital platforms, primarily in Asia. Our digital commerce platforms provide customers the benefit of added accessibility and flexibility to shop our products wherever and whenever they choose with access to the entire collection. As of March 31, 2024, we had a direct digital presence in more than 50 markets. Revenue from our e-Commerce business represented approximately 26% and 33% of total DTC channel revenue in fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, respectively.
Wholesale
Our wholesale channel is complementary to our DTC channel. This business is a highly curated expression of Canada Goose as we partner with high end retailers to raise brand awareness and test emerging markets. We work closely with our wholesale partners to optimize inventory levels across wholesale doors and tailor the product assortment to align with the preferences of consumers in each local market. We have a long tail of wholesale partners, and in fiscal 2024, the majority of our wholesale revenue was generated by approximately 10% of our traditional wholesale partners.
Our wholesale business includes the following categories:
•Traditional wholesale partners. These partners include department stores, independent multi-brand stores, and online retailers. We have a presence through these types of wholesale partners in EMEA, North America, and Asia Pacific. As part of our strategy to shift to our more profitable DTC channel segment, we have been intentionally and proactively streamlining our wholesale partners, optimizing for partners that are aligned with our luxury brand positioning. At the end of fiscal 2024, our wholesale door count was approximately 1,400 (approximately 1,500 wholesale doors at the end of fiscal 2023).
1 Sales per square foot is a supplementary financial measure. Please refer to the Non-IFRS measures and other financial measures section of our Management’s Discussion & Analysis for a definition of and explanation around this supplementary financial measure.

•International distributors. Our partners in this category have partial or full exclusive territory rights to sell our products to a particular market through their own DTC channels or local wholesalers. In fiscal 2024, we worked with international distributors based in Asia Pacific.
•Travel retail. Our travel retail partners operate in airports and duty-free locations that cater to customers traveling abroad. In fiscal 2024, we opened travel retail locations through a third-party partner in Germany and South Korea.
In fiscal 2024, EMEA was our largest wholesale market, followed by North America and then Asia Pacific.
Other
The Other segment primarily includes revenue from friends and family sales and employee sales. In fiscal 2024, we launched a new employee sales program that enables employees to purchase select products from our current collections at attractive price points. This is a deliberate strategy to improve employee access to our in-line product, encouraging employees to engage with the brand and act as brand ambassadors.
Our friends and family sales program is a considered part of our inventory management strategy to create space for new product categories and assortments by proactively reducing excess inventory. Our approach allows us to directly oversee and manage the customer experience and our inventory while mitigating environmental impact. We believe this approach enables us to attract new customers, create desire with aspirational buyers, engage with existing customers in new ways, and generate incremental cash flow. In fiscal 2024, we significantly increased the number of friends and family sales events to exit slow moving and discontinued product at lower than previously available market price points.
Other also includes revenue generated by our manufacturing facility in Romania via the manufacturing of third-party products.
Brand and Marketing
Our global brand strategy is focused on building awareness, generating brand heat, and stimulating cultural and consumer connections. Our strength lies in our storytelling and amplifying those stories through a variety of channels and relationships. We target both attracting new customers and nurturing existing ones to drive customer lifetime value.
In fiscal 2024, our key marketing initiatives included our Fall/Winter Live in the Open campaign focused on inspiring women and multiple campaigns to support our product collaborations and amplify our partnership with the NBA.
Our authentic approach to storytelling has helped fuel brand awareness, drive brand heat, and build strategic relationships with influencers and celebrities and within relevant industries, represented through our product collaborations, Goose People, and our work in the film and entertainment industry.
Product collaborations. From time-to-time, we leverage product collaborations to drive cultural relevancy and tap into new and diverse audiences. These collaborations allow both us and our partners to flex outside of our design ethos, reinterpreting our iconic products in fresh, new ways. We also appear in different places, including leading international fashion shows, such as the KidSuper Men’s Fall 2024 show during Paris Fashion Week. In fiscal 2024, we executed nine collaborations with artists and designers around the world.
Goose People. Goose People, who include adventurers, athletes, scientists, and artists, are a diverse group of global brand ambassadors that embody our brand’s values and continue to be
-38-



an important way for us to authentically tell our stories. In fiscal 2024, we announced eco-explorer and athlete, Mario Rigby as a Goose Person.
Film and entertainment. For more than three decades, our jackets have been a staple on film sets around the world. Our jackets offer film crews and talent the warmth and functionality they need to survive long shoots in the most demanding environments. Our products have naturally transitioned from behind the scenes to on-camera to authenticate cold-weather scenes.
Once a consumer is engaged, we aim to drive further connectivity and increase lifetime value, inviting them to our insider community, further engaging them through email campaigns, and ultimately delivering elevated and innovative product and shopping experiences, such as our Canadian Warmth customer experience program (see DTC Channel section).
We primarily measure our brand position and momentum through proprietary research conducted across our key markets that assesses how consumers perceive our brand. We leverage the insights from these studies as well as metrics from other sources, including our loyalty community, social media and search engines, in addition to our stores, to measure progress against our strategic objectives and inform long-term decision-making.
Warranty
We aim to strengthen relationships post-purchase, through customer service excellence and our lifetime warranty program, which applies to much of our outerwear.
Canada Goose products purchased from an Authorized Retailer are fully warranted against defects in materials and workmanship for the lifetime of the product – which means the usual and customary wearable life of the product, by the original owner. If a product fails due to a manufacturing defect, we repair the product free of charge, or replace it at our discretion. If the exact style is not available for replacement, a product of equal value and similar style is provided. Knitwear, accessories and collaborations are excluded from the Canada Goose warranty program, unless otherwise stated.
Sourcing and Manufacturing
Canada Goose operates a vertically-integrated supply chain, affording us increased quality control and direct involvement from end-to-end. This includes raw material sourcing, our own manufacturing facilities, domestic contract manufacturing partners, offshore manufacturers, quality assurance, regulatory compliance, and supporting sustainability commitments throughout our global supply chain and logistics network.
Sourcing
We source the necessary raw materials, trimmings and finished goods through our network of selected suppliers, based on our forecasts and confirmed wholesale order book.
Our materials are sourced globally and suppliers must comply with our Supplier Code of Conduct, which sets out our standards for inclusive, safe, and healthy working conditions and environmental responsibility throughout our supply chain.
We prioritize preferred fibers and materials (PFMs) in domestic production, which represents the significant majority of our finished goods in our domestically-manufactured products.
In 2021, we achieved our commitment to end the purchase of all fur, and in 2022, we ended the production of fur in our products.
Manufacturing
In fiscal 2024, nearly all of our down-filled outerwear were manufactured in Canada. Over 80% of these products were manufactured directly in our facilities.
-39-



As of March 31, 2024, we operated eight Canada Goose manufacturing facilities (seven in Canada; one in Romania). We also work with domestic and international manufacturing partners who offer specialized expertise, which provides us with flexibility to scale our production and effectively offer a broader range of product categories.
At our Canadian facilities, we conduct comprehensive training programs for our manufacturing employees that help them to develop and become experts at their craft. Our manufacturing talent combined with our approach with domestic partners provides us with a high level of flexibility, which continues to fulfill our commitment to producing our down-filled product outerwear exclusively in Canada.
Our international partners, primarily based in Europe, produce finished goods for our wind wear, rainwear, knitwear, accessories, and footwear lines.
Logistics
Our logistics network includes third-party warehouses located around the world in addition to our own manufacturing facilities. Given the greater unit volume produced in Canada, our primary warehouse is located in Ontario, Canada. This unique point of origin is a competitive advantage as it allows us to operate, directionally, against traditional shipping routes.
Inventory Management
We aim to actively manage our inventory in line with the growing size of our business. Our owned manufacturing allows us to achieve our goal to ensure product quality and our Made in Canada heritage for our down-filled products. We strive to have inventory levels that are consistent with demand. Our partnerships with contract manufacturers helps us flex production capacity higher and lower depending on business needs. Contract manufactured product comes back to our owned facilities for final inspection and the application of our logo.
In fiscal 2024, we decelerated inventory growth and shifted more to in-house production, supporting alignment between production levels, anticipated revenue, and utilization of on-hand evergreen product.
Sustainability
Sustainability practices and principles are at the core of our culture. It drives how we conduct our business and the decisions that we make across our products and our operations. Our climate, materials and packaging, and community initiatives are executed through our purpose platform, HUMANATURE, which embeds our sustainability commitments across our company’s operations. Please refer to our fiscal 2023 Sustainability Report for more information on the initiatives described below.
Climate
We have achieved carbon neutrality for company operations (Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions) in every year since fiscal 2019, by investing in projects that reduce, avoid, or sequester the equivalent of 200% of each year’s greenhouse gas emissions. In addition, in fiscal 2023, we launched energy retrofit projects in our manufacturing plants, with energy savings expected in future years.
In addition to our building sustainable operations, Canada Goose has promoted Arctic preservation through our support of Polar Bears International’s research and conservation work since 2007.
Materials and Packaging
We design our products for longevity, which is reflected in the high quality of our materials and our craftsmanship. Over time, we have increased the sourcing of PFMs in the domestic supply
-40-



of our products that have demonstrated improved environmental and social sustainability impacts compared to conventional production. This includes recycled, organic, and responsible standards.
We have also been Responsible Down Standard (RDS) certified since 2022 as both a brand and manufacturer. The RDS is an international, voluntary program that monitors the chain of custody for certified down and ensures that RDS down standards are maintained throughout the entire supply chain.
In fiscal 2023, we launched our recommerce platform Canada Goose Generations in the US, offering an authorized reselling platform that keeps Canada Goose products in circulation, giving them multiple lifetimes, and expanding our initiatives in the circular economy. In fiscal 2024, we introduced Generations in Canada. Canada Goose first entered the circular economy through our Resource Centres Program, which provides excess fabrics and materials to communities in Canada’s North, which we began in 2009.
We are also making progress toward more sustainable packaging solutions. In fiscal 2023, we eliminated redundant packaging, upgraded boxes to 100% recycled content, and developed plans to transition to 100% recycled plastic poly bags, after consuming and depleting inventory. In addition, in fiscal 2023, all Canada Goose retail stores ended the purchase of any single-use plastics.
Community
We believe in engaging communities and supporting the people who are making a difference in those communities. In addition to our work with Polar Bears International and our Resource Centres Programs, we have formed deep partnerships with Indigenous communities in the Canadian North to honour and celebrate their traditions in a way that is linked to the Canada Goose ethos, such as elevating Canadian and Arctic narratives through our art program on display at our global retail locations, which prioritize Inuit art. At the end of fiscal 2024, we had over 600 artworks on display in over 25 stores around the world.
Intellectual Property
We own the trademarks used in connection with the marketing, distribution and sale of all of our products in the United States, Canada and in the other countries in which our products are sold. Our major trademarks include the CANADA GOOSE word mark and the ARCTIC PROGRAM & DESIGN trademark (our disc logo consisting of the colour-inverse design of the North Pole and Arctic Ocean). In addition to the registrations in Canada and the United States, our word mark and design are registered in other jurisdictions which cover approximately 75 countries. Furthermore, in certain jurisdictions we register as trademarks certain elements of our products, such as fabric, warmth categorization and style names such as our Snow Mantra parka.
We enforce our trademarks and we have taken several measures to protect our customers from counterfeiting activities. Since 2011, we have sewn a unique hologram, designed exclusively for us, into every jacket and accessory as proof of authenticity. Additionally, our website has a tool for potential online customers to verify the integrity of third party retailers that purport to sell our products. We are also active in enforcing rights on a global basis to our trademarks and taking action against counterfeiters, online and in physical stores.
Seasonality
Our business is seasonal in nature. See Item 5.A - “Operating and Financial Review and Prospects” - “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Results” - “Factors Affecting our Performance” - “Seasonality” and Item 3.D - “Risk Factors” - “Risks Related to our Business” for a discussion.

Government Regulation
In Canada and in the other jurisdictions in which we operate, we are subject to labour and employment laws, laws governing advertising, privacy and data security laws, safety regulations and other laws, including consumer protection regulations that apply to retailers and/or the promotion and sale of merchandise and the operation of stores and warehouse facilities. Our products sold outside of Canada are subject to tariffs, treaties and various trade agreements as well as laws affecting the importation of consumer goods. We monitor changes in these laws, regulations, treaties and agreements, and believe that we are in material compliance with applicable laws.

CANADA GOOSE HOLDINGS INC.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
For the fourth quarter and year ended March 31, 2024
The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) for Canada Goose Holdings Inc. (“us,” “we,” “our,” “Canada Goose” or the “Company”) is dated May 15, 2024 and provides information concerning our results of operations and financial condition for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended March 31, 2024 (“fiscal 2024”). You should read this MD&A together with our audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes for the year ended March 31, 2024 (“Annual Financial Statements”). Additional information about Canada Goose is available on our website at www.canadagoose.com, on the SEDAR+ website at www.sedarplus.ca, and on the EDGAR section of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) website at www.sec.gov, including this Annual Report on Form 20-F.
CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD‑LOOKING STATEMENTS
This MD&A contains forward-looking statements. These statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based on our current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding the future of our business, future plans and strategies, and other future conditions. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “predict,” “project,” “potential,” “will,” “would,” and other similar expressions, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. These forward-looking statements include all matters that are not historical facts. They appear in many places throughout this MD&A and include statements regarding our intentions, beliefs or current expectations concerning, among other things, our results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, business prospects, growth, strategies, expectations regarding industry trends and the size and growth rates of addressable markets, our business plan and our growth strategies, including plans for expansion to new markets and new products, expectations for seasonal trends, and the industry in which we operate.
Certain assumptions made in preparing the forward-looking statements contained in this MD&A include:
•our ability to implement our growth strategies;
•our ability to maintain strong business relationships with our customers, suppliers, wholesalers, and distributors;
•our ability to keep pace with changing consumer preferences;
•our ability to protect our intellectual property;
•our ability to adapt to changes to our business as a whole due to environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) considerations;
•the continued absence of material global supply chain disruptions to our business and our ability to fulfill demand and maintain sufficient inventory levels, which we continue to monitor; and
•the absence of material adverse changes in our industry or the global economy.
-44-



By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future. We believe that these risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those described in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report and other risk factors described herein, which include, but are not limited to, the following risks:
•we may not open retail stores or expand e-Commerce access on our planned timelines;
•we may be unable to maintain the strength of our brand or to expand our brand to new products and geographies;
•unanticipated changes in the effective tax rate or adverse outcomes from audit examinations of corporate income or other tax returns;
•our indebtedness may adversely affect our financial condition, and we may not be able to refinance or renegotiate such indebtedness on favourable or satisfactory terms;
•an economic downturn and general economic conditions (for example, inflation and rising interest rates) may further affect discretionary consumer spending;
•we may not be able to satisfy changing consumer preferences;
•global political events, including the impact of political disruptions and protests, which may cause business interruptions;
•our ability to procure high quality raw materials and certain finished goods globally;
•our ability to manage inventory and forecast our inventory need, which we continue to monitor, and to manage our production distribution networks. If our supply exceeds demand, we may be required to take certain actions to reduce inventory which could damage our brand;
•we may not be able to protect or preserve our brand image and proprietary rights globally;
•the success of our business strategy;
•our ability to manage our exposure to data security and cyber security events;
•disruptions to manufacturing and distribution activities due to factors such as operational issues, disruptions in transportation logistic functions or labour shortages or disruptions;

•fluctuations in raw material costs, interest rates and currency exchange rates;
•we may be unable to maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting; and
•our ability to successfully realize expected benefits from our Transformation Program.
Although we base the forward-looking statements contained in this MD&A on assumptions that we believe are reasonable, we caution you that actual results and developments (including our results of operations, liquidity and capital resources, and the development of the industry in which we operate) may differ materially from those made in or suggested by the forward-looking statements contained in this MD&A. Additional impacts may arise that we are not aware of currently. The potential of such additional impacts intensifies the business and operating risks
-45-



which we face, and these should be considered when reading the forward-looking statements contained in this MD&A. In addition, even if results and developments are consistent with the forward-looking statements contained in this MD&A, those results and developments may not be indicative of results or developments in subsequent periods. As a result, any or all of our forward-looking statements in this MD&A may prove to be inaccurate. No forward-looking statement is a guarantee of future results. Moreover, we operate in a highly competitive and rapidly changing environment in which new risks often emerge. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make.
You should read this MD&A and the documents that we reference herein completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. The forward-looking statements contained herein are made as of the date of this MD&A, and we do not assume any obligation to update any forward-looking statements except as required by applicable laws.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The Annual Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), and this accompanying MD&A are presented in millions of Canadian dollars, except where otherwise indicated. Certain financial measures contained in this MD&A are non-IFRS financial measures and are discussed further under “Non-IFRS Financial Measures and Other Specified Financial Measures” below.
The Annual Financial Statements and the accompanying notes have been prepared using the accounting policies described in “Note 2. Material accounting policy information” to the Annual Financial Statements.
All references to “$”, “CAD” and “dollars” refer to Canadian dollars, “USD” refers to U.S. dollars, “GBP” refers to British pounds sterling, “EUR” refers to euros, “CHF” refers to Swiss francs, “CNY” refers to Chinese yuan, “RMB” refers to Chinese renminbi, “HKD” refers to Hong Kong dollars and “JPY” refers to Japanese yen unless otherwise indicated. Certain totals, subtotals and percentages throughout this MD&A may not reconcile due to rounding.
All references to “fiscal 2022” are to the Company’s fiscal year ended April 3, 2022; to “fiscal 2023” are to the Company’s fiscal year ended April 2, 2023; and to “fiscal 2024” are to the Company’s fiscal year ended March 31, 2024.
The Company’s fiscal year is a 52 or 53-week reporting cycle with the fiscal year ending on the Sunday closest to March 31. Each fiscal quarter is 13 weeks for a 52-week fiscal year. The additional week in a 53-week fiscal year is added to the third quarter. Both fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023 were 52-week fiscal years.

Certain comparative figures have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation, where foreign exchange gains and losses related to the outstanding principal balance on the Term Loan (as defined below), net of hedging, are reflected in the presentation of net interest, finance and other costs; previously this was presented in selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses. This change was made to present all financing costs related to the Term Loan within the same financial statement caption in the consolidated statements of income. For the fourth quarter and year ended April 2, 2023, we reclassified foreign exchange losses of $0.4m and $12.1m, respectively. For the year ended April 3, 2022, we reclassified foreign exchange losses of $2.8m. This reclassification did not impact net income, earnings per share, or the consolidated statement of financial position in the comparative periods.
For the year ended March 31, 2024, the Company amended the allocation basis for certain SG&A expenses between the operating segments to provide more relevant information on financial performance of each operating segment. The reclassification did not impact net income, earnings per share, or the consolidated statements of financial position in the comparative year. Comparative figures have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.
FACTORS AFFECTING OUR PERFORMANCE
We believe that our performance depends on many factors including those discussed below.
•Growth in our DTC Channel. We plan to continue executing our global strategy through retail and e-Commerce expansion, though the scale of such expansion may be delayed due to current global conditions. We continue to monitor these conditions and their potential impact on our ability to achieve positive comparable sales growth in our DTC channel.
•Wholesale. We plan to increasingly control our distribution through progressively shifting sales from our wholesale channel to our DTC channel.
•New Products. We intend to continue investing in design, innovation and the development and introduction of new products, including talent development, as well as expand offerings in our existing product categories, across styles, uses, and climates.
•Inflationary Environment. Inflationary pressures may persist in future fiscal periods and may fluctuate materially between markets. Such pressures may, among other impacts globally, have an adverse effect on our ability to maintain current gross margin and SG&A expenses as a percentage of revenue. Elevated interest rates may impact our business, including borrowing and other costs, and the markets in which we operate. In addition, inflationary pressures may affect the amount of discretionary income available for certain customers to purchase our products.
•Macroeconomic Conditions. We are subject to risks and exposures from the evolving macroeconomic environment, including supply chain disruptions, economic uncertainty, customer budgetary constraints, inflation, and resulting fears of potential economic slowdowns or recessions, all of which may negatively impact consumer demand for our products. We continuously monitor the direct and indirect impacts of these circumstances on our business and financial results.
-47-



•Seasonality. We experience seasonal fluctuations in our revenue and operating results and have historically realized a significant portion of our annual wholesale revenue during our second and third fiscal quarters, and our annual DTC revenue in our third and fourth fiscal quarters. We generated 78.1%, 78.9% and 82.5% of our annual wholesale revenue in the combined second and third fiscal quarters of fiscal 2024, fiscal 2023, and fiscal 2022, respectively. Additionally, we generated 82.6%, 83.9% and 85.0% of our annual DTC revenue in the combined third and fourth fiscal quarters of fiscal 2024, fiscal 2023, and fiscal 2022, respectively. Because of seasonal fluctuations in revenue and fixed costs associated with our business, particularly the headcount growth and premises costs associated with our expanding DTC channel, we typically experience negative and substantially reduced net income and adjusted EBIT1 in the first and fourth quarters, respectively. As a result of our seasonality, changes that impact gross margin and adjusted EBIT1 among others can have a disproportionate impact on the quarterly results when they are recorded in our off-peak revenue periods. Business performance can also be impacted by the timing and intensity of cold weather, which may affect purchasing behaviour, including causing earlier or later purchases relative to prior periods, especially in our DTC channel.
1    Adjusted EBIT is a non-IFRS measure. See “Non-IFRS Financial Measures and Other Specified Financial Measures” for a description of this measure.
Working capital requirements typically increase as inventory builds. We finance these needs through a combination of cash on hand and borrowings on our Revolving Facility, the Mainland China Facilities, and the Japan Facility, as defined below. Historically, cash flows from operations have been highest in the third and fourth fiscal quarters of the fiscal year due to revenue from the DTC channel and the collection of receivables from wholesale revenue earlier in the year.
•Global Climate Trends. A portion of our business is dependent on cold-weather seasons and patterns to generate consumer demand for our products. Consumer demand for our products may be negatively affected to the extent global climate patterns trend warmer, reducing typical patterns of cold-weather events or increasing weather volatility.
•Foreign Exchange. We sell a significant portion of our products to customers outside of Canada, which exposes us to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. In fiscal years 2024, 2023 and 2022, we generated 70.5%, 70.1% and 72.5%, respectively, of our revenue in currencies other than Canadian dollars.
Refer to “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk - Foreign exchange risk” below for more details on foreign exchange.
•Global Political Events and Other Disruptions. We are conscious of risks related to social, economic, and political instability, including geopolitical tensions, regulatory matters, market volatility, and social unrest that are affecting consumer spending, international travel, credit markets, logistics and foreign exchange in certain countries and travel corridors.
We remain concerned about the conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East and continue to suspend all wholesale and e-Commerce sales to Russia. We also continue to monitor the ongoing conflicts and the impacts on human life.
We have been, and may in the future be, impacted by widespread protests and other disruptions. To the extent that such disruptions persist, we expect that operations and traffic at our retail stores may be impacted.

BUSINESS DEVELOPMENTS
Business Combination
On November 1, 2023, a newly incorporated subsidiary of the Company, Paola Confectii Manufacturing Limited (“Paola Confectii”), acquired the business of Paola Confectii SRL, a luxury knitwear manufacturer for total cash consideration of $15.9m. Based in Romania, Paola Confectii SRL has been a trusted partner in manufacturing knitwear for Canada Goose since we launched the category in 2017. This acquisition is expected to enhance product margins and supply control, while deepening in-house product expertise and capability.
In connection with the business combination, subject to the controlling shareholders of Paola Confectii SRL (“PCML Vendors”) remaining employees through November 1, 2025, a further amount is payable to the PCML Vendors if certain performance conditions are met based on financial results (“Earn-Out”). The estimated value is calculated as a pre-determined percentage of net equity value, determined as a multiple of EBITDA and EBITDA margin for the fiscal year ending March 30, 2025, subject to a floor, less net debt adjustments. As at the reporting date, the estimated value of the payout was $7.4m. The Company recognized the amount as remuneration for future services to be performed conditional on employment until November 1, 2025, which will be expensed over two years.
Paola Confectii’s results of operations have been consolidated with those of the Company from the date of acquisition and are presented in the Other operating segment. The results of Paola Confectii were not significant for the period beginning on the date of acquisition and ended on March 31, 2024, and would not have been either during fiscal 2024 if the acquisition had occurred as of the beginning of the fiscal year.
See “Note 5. Business combination” in our Annual Financial Statements for detailed information on the acquisition of Paola Confectii SRL.
Transformation Program
In fiscal 2023, the Company announced its Transformation Program. This multi-phase program is expected to increase operational efficiencies by optimizing production and procurement, developing people and resources, and focusing on our consumers to allow sustainable growth, profitability and long term value.
•During the first quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company completed the consolidation of one of our manufacturing facilities in Montreal to improve efficiencies in our supply chain.
•During the second quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company reduced its global corporate workforce by approximately 10% to improve efficiencies in the workforce and yield savings in labour costs moving forward.
•On March 26, 2024, the Company undertook a workforce reduction as part of the Transformation Program, to streamline our business, accelerate decision-making, and increase efficiencies across our operating platform impacting approximately 17% of headcount.
SEGMENTS
Our reporting segments align with our sales channels: DTC, Wholesale, and Other. We measure each reportable operating segment’s performance based on revenue and operating income.
Our DTC segment includes sales to customers through our directly operated retail stores and our e-Commerce website available across numerous markets, which includes the newly launched recommerce platform Canada Goose Generations, currently available in the United States and Canada.
-49-



Through our Wholesale segment, we sell to a mix of retailers and international distributors, who are partners that have partial or full exclusive territory rights to sell our products to a particular market through their own DTC channels or local wholesalers. The Wholesale segment includes the introduction of travel retail starting in the second quarter ended of fiscal 2024.
The Other segment comprises revenue and costs that are not related to the Company’s DTC or Wholesale segments, such as sales to employees, friends and family sales, and results from the newly acquired Paola Confectii business (see "Business Developments" above).
For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024, the performance measure for our Other segment was revised to exclude corporate general and administrative expenses; these expenses are now presented as a reconciling item to the Company’s consolidated operating income. This change in segment reporting was made to improve the understanding of financial performance in the Other segment.
Corporate expenses comprises costs that do not occur through the DTC, Wholesale, or Other segments, including the cost of marketing expenditures to build brand awareness across all segments, management overhead costs in support of manufacturing operations, other corporate costs, and foreign exchange gains and losses not specifically associated with segment operations.
As at March 31, 2024, our DTC segment by geography included the following directly operated permanent retail stores:

COMPONENTS OF OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Revenue
DTC revenue consists of sales through our e-Commerce operations and retail stores. DTC revenue is recognized upon delivery of the goods to the customer and when consideration is received, net of an estimated provision for sales returns.
-51-



Wholesale revenue comprises sales to third party resellers, which includes retailers and distributors of our products. Wholesale revenue from the sale of goods, net of an estimated provision for sales returns, discounts, and allowances, is recognized when control of the goods has been transferred to the reseller, which, depending on the terms of the agreement with the reseller, occurs when the products have been shipped to the reseller, are picked up from our third party warehouse, or arrive at the reseller’s facilities.
Other revenue comprises of sales that do not occur through DTC or Wholesale segments, including sales to employees, friends and family sales, and results from the newly acquired Paola Confectii business.
Gross Profit
Gross profit is our revenue less cost of sales. Cost of sales comprises the cost associated with manufacturing our products, goods purchased from other manufacturers and bringing products to their place of sale. These include:
Manufacturing costs including raw materials, direct labour, and overhead. Cost of sales also includes depreciation on our manufacturing right-of-use assets and plant assets as well as inventory provisions, and allowances related to obsolescence and shrinkage. The primary drivers of our cost of sales are the costs of raw materials (which are sourced in both Canadian dollars and U.S. dollars), manufacturing labour rates, and the allocation of overhead.
Costs of goods purchased include the cost to source the product at our third party manufacturers, the product cost, freight and duty costs of shipping to our warehouses around the world.
Costs related to bringing products to their place of sale include freight, duty, and non-refundable taxes incurred in delivering the goods to distribution centres managed by third parties or to our retail stores.
Gross margin measures our gross profit as a percentage of revenue.
SG&A Expenses
SG&A expenses are incurred in our operating segments and at the corporate level. SG&A expenses consist of selling costs to support our customer relationships and to deliver our products to our e-Commerce customers, retail stores, and wholesale partners. It also includes our marketing and brand investment activities and the corporate infrastructure required to support our ongoing operations, as well as depreciation and amortization other than on manufacturing right-of-use assets and plant assets.
SG&A expenses within our operating segments include:
•Selling costs which generally correlate to revenue timing and would typically experience similar seasonal trends. As a percentage of sales, we expect these selling costs to change as our business evolves. This change has been and is expected to be primarily driven by the expansion of our DTC segment, including the investment required to support e-Commerce sites and retail stores. Retail store costs are mostly fixed and are incurred throughout the year.
•General and administrative expenses which are directly related to our operating segments primarily include personnel costs (including salaries, variable incentive compensation, and benefits), technology support, other professional service costs, and marketing.
-52-



•Depreciation and amortization which represent the economic benefit incurred in using the Company’s property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, and right-of-use assets. We expect depreciation and amortization to increase, primarily driven by the expansion of our DTC segment.
SG&A expenses at the corporate level include:
•General and administrative expenses which generally represent costs incurred in our corporate offices, primarily related to marketing, personnel costs (including salaries, variable incentive compensation, benefits, and share-based compensation), technology support, and other professional service costs. We have invested considerably in this area to support the growing volume and complexity of our business.
•Depreciation and amortization which represent the economic benefit incurred in using corporate property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, and right-of-use assets.
Operating Income and Operating Margin
Operating income is our gross profit less SG&A expenses. Operating margin measures our operating income as a percentage of revenue.
Net Interest, Finance and Other Costs
Net interest, finance and other costs represents interest expense on our borrowings including the Revolving Facility, the Term Loan, the Mainland China Facilities, the Japan Facility, each as defined below, and lease liabilities, as well as standby fees and other financing costs, net of interest income. Net interest, finance and other costs also includes the fair value remeasurements of the contingent consideration, put option liability related to the agreement entered between the Company and Sazaby League to form the Japan Joint Venture (“Joint Venture Agreement”), and foreign exchange gains and losses related to the outstanding principal balance on the Term Loan, net of the impact of hedging which previously was presented in SG&A expenses.
See “Note 5. Business Combination” of the Annual Financial Statements for a description of the put option and contingent consideration under Japan Joint Venture.
Income Taxes
We are subject to income taxes in the jurisdictions in which we operate and, consequently, income tax expense is a function of the allocation of taxable income by jurisdiction and the various activities that impact the timing of taxable events.
Changes in tax laws in any of the multiple jurisdictions in which we operate, or adverse outcomes from tax audits that we may be subject to in any of the jurisdictions in which we operate, could result in an unfavorable change in our effective tax rate, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results.

Revenue for the year ended March 31, 2024 increased by $116.8m, or 9.6%, to $1,333.8m from $1,217.0m for the year ended April 2, 2023. On a constant currency1 basis, revenue increased by 8.6% the year ended March 31, 2024 compared to the year ended April 2, 2023. The strength of the US dollar and the euro compared to the Canadian dollar and its impacts on revenue in the period outweighed the depreciation of the Japanese yen relative to the Canadian dollar.

Within our product categories, non-Heavyweight Down grew year-over-year across all geographies except EMEA, expanding its share of revenue and units sold within the overall mix. Heavyweight Down revenue remained flat year-over-year on a consolidated basis with strong growth in Asia Pacific compared to the year ended April 2, 2023, offsetting declines in other regions.
Revenue generated from our DTC and Wholesale segments represented 71.3% and 23.4%, respectively, of total revenue for the year ended March 31, 2024 compared to 66.3% and 30.7%, respectively, for the year ended April 2, 2023.
DTC
Revenue from our DTC segment for the year ended March 31, 2024 was $950.7m compared to $807.3m for the year ended April 2, 2023. The increase of $143.4m or 17.8% was attributable largely to:
•Our retail stores had increased revenue across all geographies due to:
•Retail expansion, mainly in the United States and Mainland China, with 14 new permanent stores and three temporary stores converted to permanent stores during the year ended March 31, 2024, in addition to 10 stores in fiscal 2023 running for the full duration of the year ended March 31, 2024 compared to partial operations in fiscal 2023;
•Comparable retail sales growth was mixed with:
◦Strong performance in Asia Pacific with positive comparable sales growth due to:
▪Strong domestic and tourist shopping in Greater China;
▪Positive response to our product assortment;
▪Sales were bolstered by Lunar New Year;
▪Elevation of traffic across our retail network in the region; and
▪Reduced working hours and store closures as result of COVID-19 related restrictions in fiscal 2023 that did not reoccur in fiscal 2024.
◦Weakness in North America and EMEA with negative comparable sales growth due to a pressured consumer and an intense promotional environment.
-56-



•The e-Commerce channel experienced a decline in revenue and a decline in comparable sales growth in North America and EMEA, which was partially offset by a strong performance in Greater China.
DTC comparable sales growth1 of 0.3%. The slight increase was driven by Asia Pacific, which was partially offset by North America and EMEA.
Our average sales per square foot1, was $3,963 and $3,964 for fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, respectively, with higher sales per square foot in Asia Pacific offset by lower sales per square foot in North America and EMEA in fiscal 2024 compared to prior year.
1DTC comparable sales growth and average sales per square foot are supplementary financial measures. See “Non-IFRS Financial Measures and Other Specified Financial Measures” for a description of this measure.
Wholesale
Revenue from our Wholesale segment for the year ended March 31, 2024 was $312.3m compared to $373.8m for the year ended April 2, 2023. The decrease of $61.5m or (16.5)% was due to:
•Lower order book value due to higher levels of inventory on hand for existing customers as our partners experienced the same intense promotional environment as we did in our DTC channel; and
•Continued streamlining of the Wholesale segment by reducing partnerships as we optimize for greater DTC sales within our channel mix, consistent with our expectations, particularly in EMEA.
Other
Revenue from our Other segment for the year ended March 31, 2024 was $70.8m compared to $35.9m for the year ended April 2, 2023. The increase of $34.9m or 97.2% was attributable to:
•Increased product sales to employees with the expansion of our employee purchase program;
•Larger number of friends and family events related to our strategic management of slow moving inventory; and
•Revenue generated from Paola Confectii in fiscal 2024 as a result of the business combination.

SG&A expenses were $792.9m for the year ended March 31, 2024 compared to $667.6m for the year ended April 2, 2023. The increase in SG&A expenses of $125.3m or 18.8% was attributable to:
•An increase of $76.2m in costs related to our operating segments, driven by:
◦$26.7m of higher personnel costs primarily due to headcount growth related to the expanded retail network in the United States and Greater China;
◦$22.2m in increased rent, occupancy, and maintenance costs primarily due to the expansion of the retail network, prior year store openings running for the full period in fiscal 2024, and higher costs from variable rent in Greater China resulting from increased revenue compared to fiscal 2023;
◦$14.9m in higher depreciation and amortization, including depreciation on right-of-use assets, driven by the continued retail expansion;
◦$4.2m in increased technology costs for licenses and fees related to the e-Commerce infrastructure; and
◦$3.9m in fees to our service providers in support of our friends and family events.
•An increase of $49.1m in costs related to corporate expenses, driven by:
◦$40.1m of activities related to the Transformation Program, including $23.5m of consultancy fees and $16.6m of severance costs, net of share-based award forfeitures, associated with the reduction in workforce, which are not expected to recur; and
◦$9.8m of incremental corporate personnel costs driven by headcount growth and wage rate increases. During fiscal 2024, the Company experienced headcount growth from corporate personnel from the prior year, however the organizational redesign that took place at the end of March 2024 resulted in a reduction of corporate personnel.
The increase in corporate expenses described above was partially offset by $3.8m of favourable foreign exchange fluctuations and $3.1m of lower spend on marketing activities.

Operating income and operating margin were $124.5m and 9.3%, respectively, for the year ended March 31, 2024 compared to $147.6m and 12.1%, respectively, for the year ended April 2, 2023. The decrease in operating income of $23.1m and operating margin of 280 bps was attributable to higher operating costs, partially offset by higher gross profit as discussed above.
DTC
DTC segment operating income and operating margin were $387.1m and 40.7% for the year ended March 31, 2024 compared to $347.4m and 43.0% for the year ended April 2, 2023. The increase in operating income of $39.7m was attributable to improved revenue and gross profit from expansion of the retail network, partially offset by higher operating costs.
The decrease in operating margin of (230) bps was attributable to:
•Gross margin - favourably increased by 30 bps to 76.6% for the year ended March 31, 2024, compared to 76.3% for the year ended April 2, 2023. The increase in gross margin was mainly driven by favourable pricing (+150 bps), partially offset by inventory adjustments (-70 bps), primarily related to Canada Goose Generations, freight and duty (-20 bps), and product mix (-20 bps).
•SG&A expenses as a percentage of revenue - unfavourably increased by 260 bps to 35.9% for the year ended March 31, 2024, compared to 33.3% for the year ended April 2, 2023. The increase was driven by higher personnel and infrastructure costs in the e-Commerce channel relative to a decline in revenue in the channel, and higher costs from variable rent in Greater China resulting from increased revenue compared to fiscal 2023.
There were no COVID-19 related temporary store closure costs in the year ended March 31, 2024 compared to $3.2m in the comparative period.

Wholesale
Wholesale segment operating income and operating margin were $114.0m and 36.5% for the year ended March 31, 2024 compared to $131.2m and 35.1% for the year ended April 2, 2023. The decrease in operating income of $17.2m was attributable to lower gross profit, driven by a decline in revenue from a lower order book value and the continued streamlining of the Wholesale segment, and relatively flat SG&A expenses year-over-year.
The increase in operating margin of 140 bps was attributable:
•Gross margin - favourably increased by 360 bps to 53.3% for the year ended March 31, 2024, compared to 49.7% for the year ended April 2, 2023. The increase in gross margin was driven by favourable pricing (+280 bps), which included positive foreign exchange results due to the strengthening of the euro relative to the Canadian dollar and inventory adjustments (+160 bps), partially offset by cost variances (-140 bps).
•SG&A expenses as a percentage of revenue - unfavourably increased by 220 bps to 16.8% for the year ended March 31, 2024, compared to 14.6% for the year ended April 2, 2023. The increase was driven by lower revenue.
Other
Other segment operating income was $14.0m for the year ended March 31, 2024 compared to $10.5m for the year ended April 2, 2023. The increase in operating income of $3.5m was attributable to higher revenue as described above, partially offset by increased SG&A expenses.
For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024, the performance measure for our Other segment was revised to exclude corporate general and administrative expenses; these expenses are now presented as a reconciling item to the Company’s consolidated operating income.

Net interest, finance and other costs were $48.8m for the year ended March 31, 2024 compared to $54.1m for the year ended April 2, 2023. The decrease of $5.3m or 9.8% was attributable to favourable foreign exchange fluctuations related to the Term Loan (as defined below) which is denominated in USD, net of hedging impacts, of $10.0m. The decrease was also due to the decrease in net loss of $3.6m on the fair value remeasurement of the put option liability (liability decrease of $13.6m, excluding translation losses of $4.3m) and the contingent consideration (liability increase of $4.1m, excluding translation losses of $1.6m) related to the Japan Joint Venture. The change in fair values of the contingent consideration and put option liability were driven by updated cash flow forecasts, progression through the 4-year and 10-year terms, respectively, and lower cost of equity in the market.
The decrease was partially offset by $6.1m of higher interest from principal payments on lease liabilities related to new stores, and $2.6m of higher interest charges due to higher gross borrowings during the period on our facilities from the comparative period.

Within our product categories, non-Heavyweight Down grew year-over-year across all geographies in the fourth quarter ended March 31, 2024, expanding its share of revenue and units sold within the overall mix. Heavyweight Down revenue remained flat year-over-year on a consolidated basis with strong growth in United States and Asia Pacific compared to the fourth quarter ended April 2, 2023.
Revenue generated from our DTC and Wholesale segments represented 75.8% and 11.6%, respectively of total revenue for the fourth quarter ended March 31, 2024 compared to 77.6% and 15.5% respectively, for the fourth quarter ended April 2, 2023.

DTC
Revenue from our DTC segment was $271.5m for the fourth quarter ended March 31, 2024 compared to $227.5m for the fourth quarter ended April 2, 2023. The increase of $44.0m or 19.3% was driven by the following factors:
•Our retail stores had increased revenue across all geographies, primarily due to:
◦Retail expansion mainly in the United States and Asia Pacific with three new permanent stores in the quarter and 11 new permanent stores opened earlier in the fiscal year running for the full duration of the current quarter compared to the comparative quarter;
◦Comparable retail sales growth had mixed results due to:
▪Strong performance across Asia Pacific with positive comparable sales growth due to:
•Strong domestic and tourist shopping in Greater China with elevation of traffic and increased units per transaction across our retail network in the region, as a result of enhanced product planning and Lunar New Year; and
•Continued improvements in tourism in the region.
▪Negative comparable retail sales growth in EMEA due to pressured consumers and an intense promotional environment, although traffic, conversion and units per transaction increased compared to the same period last year.
•Strong performance in the e-Commerce channel driven by the United States and Greater China, as traffic, conversion and units per transaction increased compared to the same period last year.
DTC comparable sales growth1 of 3.5% was driven by higher e-Commerce revenue and relatively flat comparable store growth.
1DTC comparable sales growth is a supplementary financial measure. See “Non-IFRS Financial Measures and Other Specified Financial Measures” for a description of this measure.
Wholesale
Revenue from our Wholesale segment was $41.4m for the fourth quarter ended March 31, 2024 compared to $45.5m for the fourth quarter ended April 2, 2023. The decrease of $4.1m or (9.0)% was due to a planned lower order book value resulting from fewer orders from existing customers, compared to the same period last year, and the ongoing streamlining of our wholesale accounts.
Other
Revenue from our Other segment was $45.1m for the fourth quarter ended March 31, 2024 compared to $20.2m for the fourth quarter ended April 2, 2023. The increase of $24.9m was mainly attributable to larger number of friends and family events related to our strategic management of slow moving inventory, which we leveraged to exit slow moving and discontinued inventory as part of our broader strategy to optimize inventory levels.

•An increase of $23.4m in costs related to our operating segments, driven by:
◦$7.7m of higher personnel costs primarily due to headcount growth related to the expanded retail network in the United States and Greater China;
◦$3.8m in higher depreciation and amortization driven by the continued retail expansion, including new stores opened in fiscal 2024;
◦$2.9m in increased technology costs for licenses and fees related to the e-Commerce infrastructure; and
◦$2.8m in fees to our service providers in support of our friends and family events; and
◦$2.6m in increased rent, occupancy, and maintenance costs primarily due to the expansion of the retail network, prior year store openings running for the full quarter in fiscal 2024, and higher costs from variable rent in Asia Pacific resulting from increased revenue compared to fiscal 2023.
•An increase of $13.8m in costs related to corporate expenses, driven by $13.5m of activities related to the Transformation Program, including $2.4m of consultancy fees and $11.1m of severance costs, net of share-based award forfeitures, associated with the reduction in workforce which are not expected to recur.

The increase in operating income of $14.4m was attributable to higher sales, partially offset by costs associated with the expansion of the retail network.
The decrease in operating margin of (110) bps was attributable to:
•Gross margin - favourably increased by 60 bps to 73.9% in the fourth quarter ended March 31, 2024, compared to 73.3% for the fourth quarter ended April 2, 2023. The increase in gross margin was driven by pricing (+110 bps), freight and duty (+50 bps) and product mix (+40 bps), partially offset by inventory adjustments (-130 bps).

Wholesale segment operating income and operating margin were $3.9m and 9.4%, respectively, for the fourth quarter ended March 31, 2024 compared to $3.7m and 8.1% for the fourth quarter ended April 2, 2023. The increase in operating income of $0.2m was attributable to higher gross profit despite a decline in revenue from a lower order book value and the continued streamlining of the Wholesale segment. SG&A expenses are consistent with the comparative quarter.
The increase in operating margin of 130 bps was attributable to:
•Gross margin - favourably increased by 400 bps to 39.6% in the fourth quarter ended March 31, 2024, compared to 35.6% for the fourth quarter ended April 2, 2023. The increase in gross margin was driven by inventory adjustments (+1,170 bps) primarily due to higher inventory provisioning in the comparative quarter that did not reoccur in the current quarter. The increase was partially offset by product mix (-740 bps) primarily due to a lower proportion of Heavyweight Down sales.
•SG&A expenses as a percentage of revenue - unfavourably increased by 270 bps to 30.2% for the fourth quarter ended March 31, 2024, compared to 27.5% for the fourth quarter ended April 2, 2023. The increase was attributable to lower segment revenue, as SG&A expenses from the current quarter are consistent with the comparative quarter.
Other
Other segment operating income was $9.9m for the fourth quarter ended March 31, 2024 compared to $5.2m for the fourth quarter ended April 2, 2023. The increase in operating income of $4.7m was attributable to higher revenue as described above, partially offset by increased SG&A expenses.

The decrease of $16.3m or 73.4% was driven by the decrease in net loss of $19.2m on the fair value remeasurement of the put option liability (liability decrease of $25.6m, excluding translation losses of $1.8m) and the contingent consideration (liability increase of $4.3m, excluding translation losses of $0.3m) related to the Japan Joint Venture. The change in fair values of the contingent consideration and put option liability were driven by updated cash flow forecasts, progression through the 4-year and 10-year terms, respectively, and lower cost of equity in the market.
The decrease was partially offset by unfavourable foreign exchange fluctuations related to the Term Loan (as defined below) which is denominated in USD, net of hedging impacts, of $1.7m and $1.5m of higher interest related to principal payments on lease liabilities.

Revenue in our Wholesale segment is highest in our second and third quarters as we fulfill wholesale customer orders in time for the Fall and Winter retail seasons, and, in our DTC segment, in the third and fourth quarters. Our net income is typically negative in the first quarter and negative or reduced in the fourth quarter as we invest ahead of our peak season.

Revenue
Over the last eight quarters, revenue has been impacted by the following:
•timing of store openings;
•launch and expansion of international e-Commerce sites;
•timing and extent of SG&A, including demand generation activities;
•successful execution of global pricing strategy;
•shift in mix of revenue from Wholesale to DTC, which has impacted the seasonality of our financial performance;
•shift in geographic mix of sales to increase sales outside of Canada, where average unit retail pricing is generally higher;
•fluctuation of foreign currencies relative to the Canadian dollar;
•revenue generated from the Japan Joint Venture formed on April 4, 2022;
•revenue generated from the new subsidiary Paola Confectii formed on November 1, 2023, in connection with the business combination; and
•impacts from COVID-19 that began in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020.
Net Income (Loss)
Over the last eight quarters, net income (loss) has been affected by the following factors:
•impact of the items affecting revenue, as discussed above;
•increase and timing of our investment in brand, marketing, and administrative support as well as increased investment in property, plant, and equipment and intangible assets to support growth initiatives;
•increase in fixed SG&A costs associated with our business, particularly the headcount growth and premises costs associated with our expanding DTC channel, resulting in net losses in our seasonally low-revenue first and fourth quarters, respectively;
•impact of foreign exchange;
•fluctuations in average cost of borrowings to address growing working capital requirements and higher seasonal borrowings in the first and second quarters of each fiscal year to address the seasonal nature of revenue;
•pre-store opening costs incurred, timing of leases signed, and opening of stores;
•the nature and timing of transaction costs in connection with the Japan Joint Venture and amendments to long-term debt agreements;
•the proportion of taxable income in non-Canadian jurisdictions and changes to rates and tax legislation in those jurisdictions;
•increased freight costs, limitations on shipping and other disruptions in the transportation and shipping infrastructure;
•increased product costs due to cost inflation and higher interest rates;
•the repurchase of our subordinate voting shares pursuant to our normal course issuer bids;

NON-IFRS FINANCIAL MEASURES AND OTHER SPECIFIED FINANCIAL MEASURES
The Company uses certain financial measures that are “non-IFRS financial measures”, including adjusted EBIT, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income attributable to the shareholders of the Company, constant currency revenue, and net debt, certain financial measures that are “non-IFRS ratios”, including adjusted EBIT margin, adjusted net income per basic and diluted share attributable to shareholders of the Company and, net debt leverage, as well as certain financial measures that are “supplementary financial measures”, including DTC comparable sales growth and average sales per square foot, in each case in this document and other documents. These financial measures are employed by the Company to measure its operating and economic performance and to assist in business decision-making, as well as providing key performance information to senior management. The Company believes that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, certain investors and analysts use this information to evaluate the Company’s operating and financial performance and its financial position. These financial measures are not defined under IFRS nor do they replace or supersede any standardized measure under IFRS. Other companies in our industry may calculate these measures differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

Adjusted EBIT, adjusted EBIT margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income attributable to shareholders of the Company, and adjusted net income per basic and diluted share attributable to shareholders of the Company
These measures exclude the impact of certain non-cash items and certain other adjustments related to events that are non-recurring or unusual in nature, that we believe are not otherwise reflective of our ongoing operations and/or that make comparisons of underlying financial performance between periods difficult. We use, and believe that certain investors and analysts use, this information to evaluate our core financial and operating performance for business planning purposes, as well as to analyze how our business operates in, or responds to, swings in economic cycles or to other events that impact the apparel industry.
Constant currency revenue
Constant currency revenue is calculated by translating the prior year reported amounts into comparable amounts using a single foreign exchange rate for each currency calculated based on the current period exchange rates. We use, and believe that certain investors and analysts use, this information to assess how our business and geographic segments performed excluding the effects of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. See “Results of Operations - Revenue” for a reconciliation of reported revenue and revenue on a constant currency basis.
Net debt and net debt leverage
We define net debt as cash less total borrowings and lease liabilities, and net debt leverage as the ratio of net debt to adjusted EBITDA, measured on a spot basis. We use, and believe that certain investors and analysts use, these non-IFRS financial measures and ratios to determine the Company’s financial leverage and ability to meet its debt obligations. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources - Indebtedness” below for a table providing the calculation of net debt and discussion of net debt leverage.
DTC comparable sales growth
DTC comparable sales growth is a supplementary financial measure defined as sales on a constant currency basis from e-Commerce sites and stores which have been operating for one full year (12 successive fiscal months). The measure excludes store sales from both periods for the specific trading days when the stores were closed, whether those closures occurred in the current period or the comparative period. The DTC comparable sales growth metric we report may not be equivalent to similarly titled metrics reported by other companies.
Average sales per square foot
Average sales per square foot is a supplementary financial measure, calculated as total revenue from our stores that have been open for the full 52 weeks of the fiscal year divided by average net selling space. Average net selling space is defined as the sum of a store’s selling square footage at the end of each month divided by 12 fiscal periods. We use this metric to assess the performance of our stores relative to their square footage. The average sales per square foot metric we report may not be equivalent to similarly titled metrics reported by other companies.
Total Segment Operating Income
Total segment operating income is a non-IFRS measure defined as revenue minus cost of goods sold and SG&A expenses directly related to the operating segment. The total segment operating income metric we report may not be equivalent to similarly titled metrics reported by other companies. See “Operating Income and Operating Margin” discussion above for reconciliation.
The tables below reconcile net income to adjusted EBIT, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income attributable to shareholders of the Company for the periods indicated. Adjusted EBIT
-71-



margin is equal to adjusted EBIT for the period presented as a percentage of revenue for the same period.
Beginning in fiscal 2024, impairment losses for retail stores are no longer included in the reconciliation of net income to adjusted EBIT, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income attributable to shareholders of the Company, as we believe these costs have become sufficiently recurring and are therefore part of our normal course of business. Comparable periods have been restated to reflect this change.
Beginning with the first quarter of fiscal 2024, foreign exchange gains and losses related to the Term Loan (as defined below), net of hedging, are now reflected in the presentation of net interest, finance and other costs; which was previously presented in SG&A expenses. As such, this item is no longer included as a separate reconciling item to adjusted EBIT, adjusted EBIT margin, and adjusted EBITDA. Comparable periods have been reclassified to reflect this change.
See “Basis of Presentation” for additional details on the updates made to the comparable periods.

Cash Requirements
Our primary need for liquidity is to fund working capital and capital expenditures including new stores, debt services, and general corporate requirements of our business. Our primary source of liquidity to meet our cash requirements is cash generated from operating activities over our annual operating cycle. We also utilize the Mainland China Facilities, the Japan Facility, the Revolving Facility, as defined below, and the trade accounts receivable factoring program to provide short-term liquidity and to have funds available for working capital. Our ability to fund our operations, invest in planned capital expenditures, meet debt obligations, and repay or refinance indebtedness depends on our future operating performance and cash flows, which are subject, but not limited to, prevailing economic, financial, and business conditions, some of which are beyond our control. Cash generated from operating activities is significantly impacted by the seasonality of our business. Historically, cash flows from operating activities have been highest in the third and fourth fiscal quarters of the fiscal year due to revenue from the DTC channel and the collection of receivables from wholesale revenue recognized earlier in the year.
As at March 31, 2024, the decrease in total inventory compared to April 2, 2023 was attributable to lower raw materials and finished goods. Raw material decreases were driven by an adjustment to purchasing processes to better align supply with production needs. Lower finished goods levels were achieved by:
•management of slow moving inventory through revenue generated in the Other segment;
•inventory provisioning for Canada Goose Generations;
•a decrease in total production; and
•continued focus on optimizing product planning.
The decrease in production was driven by optimizing production levels to better align the supply of product with anticipated revenue growth and utilize the evergreen product we have on-hand. We continue to monitor the levels of inventory in each of our sales channels and across geographic regions and intend to continue to align inventory with demand that we forecast in each region.
-76-



Inventory of $1.6m was acquired through Paola Confectii, and its inventory level is $6.6m as at March 31, 2024.
Cash flows from operating activities
Cash flows from operating activities were $164.6m for the year ended March 31, 2024 compared to $116.3m for the year ended April 2, 2023. The increase in cash from operating activities of $48.3m was driven by deceleration of inventory production compared to investments in inventory in the prior year. This was partially offset by higher income taxes paid of $29.3m.
Cash flows from operating activities were $82.8m for the fourth quarter ended March 31, 2024 compared to $7.0m for the fourth quarter ended April 2, 2023. The increase in cash from operating activities of $75.8m was driven by higher net income, lower inventory production and decreased accounts payable and accrued liabilities driven by the $20.0m liability to our designated broker under the automatic share purchase plan (the “Fiscal 2023 ASPP”) in the comparative quarter.
Cash flows used in investing activities
Cash flows used in investing activities were $72.4m for the year ended March 31, 2024 compared to $45.3m for the year ended April 2, 2023. The increase in cash flows used in investing activities of $27.1m was driven by $15.9m for the acquisition of Paola Confectii and increased capital expenditures of $9.7m driven by the expansion of the retail network.
Cash flows used in investing activities were $12.7m for the fourth quarter ended March 31, 2024 compared to $23.9m for the fourth quarter ended April 2, 2023. The decrease in cash flows used in investing activities of $11.2m was primarily due to $13.7m lower capital expenditures related to upcoming retail expansion, partially offset by $3.6m on the final cash consideration payment for the newly acquired Paola Confectii business.
Cash flows used in financing activities
Cash flows used in financing activities were $232.8m for the year ended March 31, 2024 compared to $80.7m for the year ended April 2, 2023. The increase in cash flows used in financing activities of $152.1m was driven by $114.7m of higher payments for the purchase of subordinate voting shares that were cancelled related to the normal course issuer bid (“NCIB”) that begun during fiscal 2023 (the “Fiscal 2023 NCIB”) and the NCIB that begun during fiscal 2024 (the “Fiscal 2024 NCIB”) as described below, repayments of $9.8m principal outstanding balance on the Mainland China Facilities (as defined below) from fiscal 2023, increased principal payments on lease liabilities of $7.0m, primarily for additional retail stores, and the settlement of the term loan derivative contracts of $8.6m in the comparative period.
Cash flows used in financing activities were $79.5m for the fourth quarter ended March 31, 2024 compared to $45.4m for the fourth quarter ended April 2, 2023. The increase in cash flows used in financing activities of $34.1m was largely driven by $19.1m of higher payments for the purchase of subordinate voting shares that were cancelled related to the Fiscal 2023 NCIB and Fiscal 2024 NCIB as described below, increased repayments of $3.4m on the Mainland China Facilities (as defined below), and the settlement of the term loan derivative contracts of $8.6m in the comparative quarter.

Amendments to borrowings
Effective June 30, 2023, LIBOR rates were no longer published for U.S Dollars. As a result, in the first quarter ended July 2, 2023, the Company transitioned facilities and contracts denominated in U.S dollars applying LIBOR to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (“SOFR”). At this time, the Company entered into further amendments to its Revolving Facility (as defined below), the Term Loan (as defined below) and the interest rate swaps to transition to SOFR. In connection with the amendments, during the first quarter ended July 2, 2023 the Company also extended the maturity of the Revolving Facility to May 15, 2028 and incurred transaction costs of $0.7m, on the extension of the Revolving Facility, which are being amortized using the effective interest rate method over the new term to maturity. There were no amendments to borrowings in the fourth quarter ended March 31, 2024.
Revolving Facility
The Company has an agreement with a syndicate of lenders for a senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility (“Revolving Facility”) in the amount of $467.5m, with an increase in commitments to $517.5m during the peak season (June 1 - November 30). The Revolving Facility matures on May 15, 2028. Amounts owing under the Revolving Facility may be borrowed, repaid and re-borrowed for general corporate purposes. The Company has pledged substantially all of its assets as collateral for the Revolving Facility. The Revolving Facility contains financial and non-financial covenants which could impact the Company’s ability to draw funds.
As at March 31, 2024, the Company had repaid all principal amounts owing on the Revolving Facility (April 2, 2023 - $nil). As at March 31, 2024, no interest and administrative fees remain outstanding (April 2, 2023 - $nil). Deferred financing charges in the amounts of $1.0m (April 2,
-78-



2023 - $0.5m), were included in other long-term liabilities. As at and during the year ended March 31, 2024, the Company was in compliance with all covenants.
The Company had unused borrowing capacity available under the Revolving Facility of $203.7m as at March 31, 2024 (April 2, 2023 - $238.4m).
As at March 31, 2024, the Company had letters of credit outstanding under the Revolving Facility of $1.5m (April 2, 2023 - $1.8m).
Term Loan
The Company has a senior secured loan agreement with a syndicate of lenders that is secured on a split collateral basis (“Term Loan”) alongside the Revolving Facility. The Term Loan has an aggregate principal amount of USD300.0m, with quarterly repayments of USD0.75m on the principal amount and a maturity date of October 7, 2027. Moreover, the Term Loan has an interest rate of SOFR plus a term SOFR adjustment of 0.11448% with an applicable margin of 3.50% payable monthly in arrears. SOFR plus the term SOFR adjustment may not be less than 0.75%.
Voluntary prepayments of amounts owing under the Term Loan may be made at any time without premium or penalty but once repaid may not be reborrowed. The Company has pledged substantially all of its assets as collateral for the Term Loan. The Term Loan contains financial and non-financial covenants which could impact the Company’s ability to draw funds. As at and during the year ended March 31, 2024, the Company was in compliance with all covenants.
As the Term Loan is denominated in U.S. dollars, the Company remeasures the outstanding balance in Canadian dollars at each balance sheet date. As at March 31, 2024, we had $393.1m (USD290.3m) aggregate principal amount outstanding under the Term Loan (April 2, 2023 - $396.3m (USD293.3m)). The difference in amounts in these periods is the result of the change in the CAD:USD exchange rate.
Mainland China Facilities
A subsidiary of the Company in Mainland China has two uncommitted loan facilities in the aggregate amount of RMB266.4m ($50.0m) ("Mainland China Facilities"). The term of each draw on the loans is one, three or six months or such other period as agreed upon and shall not exceed 12 months (including any extension or rollover). The interest rate on each facility is equal to loan prime rate of 1 year, minus a marginal rate between 0.35% and 0.45%, and payable at one, three or six months, depending on the term of each draw. Proceeds drawn on the Mainland China Facilities are being used to support working capital requirements and build up of inventory for peak season sales. As at March 31, 2024, the Company had no amounts owing on the Mainland China Facilities (April 2, 2023 - $9.8m (RMB50.0m)).
Japan Facility
A subsidiary of the Company in Japan has a loan facility in the aggregate amount of JPY4,000.0m ($35.8m) ("Japan Facility") with a floating interest rate of Japanese Bankers Association Tokyo Interbank Offered Rate (“JBA TIBOR”) plus an applicable margin of 0.30%. The term of the facility is 12 months and each draw on the facility is payable within the term. Proceeds drawn on the Japan Facility are being used to support build up of inventory for peak season sales. As at March 31, 2024, the Company had $5.4m (JPY600.0m) owing on the Japan Facility (April 2, 2023 - $13.7m (JPY1,350.0m)).
Short-term Borrowings
As at March 31, 2024, the Company has short-term borrowings in the amount of $9.4m. Short-term borrowings include $5.4m (April 2, 2023 - $13.7m) owing on the Japan Facility, and $4.0m
-79-



(April 2, 2023 - $4.1m) for the current portion of the quarterly principal repayments on the Term Loan. For the year ended April 2, 2023, short-term borrowings included $9.8m on the Mainland China Facilities. Short-term borrowings are all due within the next 12 months.
Lease Liabilities
The Company had $330.5m (April 2, 2023 - $334.8m) of lease liabilities as at March 31, 2024, of which $79.9m (April 2, 2023 - $76.1m) are due within one year. Lease liabilities represent the discounted amount of future payments under leases for right-of-use assets.
Normal Course Issuer Bid
Share capital transactions for the year ended March 31, 2024
Normal course issuer bid for Fiscal 2024
During the year ended March 31, 2024, the Company has renewed its NCIB in relation to its subordinate voting shares. The Company is authorized to make purchases under the Fiscal 2024 NCIB from subordinate voting shares over the 12-month period from November 22, 2023 and ending no later than November 21, 2024, in accordance with the requirements of the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”). The Board of Directors has authorized the Company to repurchase up to 4,980,505 subordinate voting shares, representing 10.0% of the Public Float (as defined in the rules of the TSX) for the subordinate voting shares as at November 10, 2023. Purchases will be made by means of open market transactions on both the TSX and the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”), or alternative trading systems, if eligible, and will conform to their regulations. Under the Fiscal 2024 NCIB, the Company is allowed to repurchase daily, through the facilities of the TSX, a maximum of 71,846 subordinate voting shares, representing 25% of the average daily trading volume, as calculated per the TSX rules for the six-month period starting on May 1, 2023 and ending on October 31, 2023. A copy of the Company's notice of intention to commence a NCIB through the facilities of the TSX may be obtained, without charge, by contacting the Company. The Company believes that the purchase of its subordinate voting shares under the Fiscal 2024 NCIB is an appropriate and desirable use of available excess cash.
In connection with the Fiscal 2024 NCIB, the Company also entered an automatic share purchase plan (the “Fiscal 2024 ASPP”) under which a designated broker may purchase subordinate voting shares under the Fiscal 2024 NCIB during the regularly scheduled quarterly trading blackout periods of the Company. The repurchases made under the Fiscal 2024 ASPP will be made in accordance with certain purchasing parameters and will continue until the earlier of the date in which the Company has purchased the maximum value of subordinate voting shares pursuant to the Fiscal 2024 ASPP or upon the date of expiry of the Fiscal 2024 NCIB.
During the year ended March 31, 2024, under the Fiscal 2024 NCIB, the Company purchased 3,586,124 subordinate voting shares for cancellation for total cash consideration of $56.9m. The amount to purchase the subordinate voting shares was charged to share capital, with the remaining $48.8m charged to retained earnings. Of the 3,586,124 subordinate voting shares purchased, 3,088,648 were purchased under the Fiscal 2024 ASPP for total cash consideration of $49.6m.
For the trading blackout period relating to the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024, the Company elected not to rely on the Fiscal 2024 ASPP. Therefore, there was no liability due to the designated broker as at March 31, 2024.
Normal course issuer bid for Fiscal 2023
The Board of Directors authorized the Company to initiate a normal course issuer bid, in accordance with the requirements of the Toronto Stock Exchange, to purchase and cancel up to
-80-



5,421,685 subordinate voting shares over the 12-month period from November 22, 2022 and concluded on November 21, 2023 (the “Fiscal 2023 NCIB”).
In connection with the Fiscal 2023 NCIB, the Company also entered into the Fiscal 2023 ASPP under which a designated broker purchased subordinate voting shares under the Fiscal 2023 NCIB during the regularly scheduled quarterly trading blackout periods of the Company. This Fiscal 2023 ASPP terminated on November 21, 2023, along with the Fiscal 2023 NCIB, and the liability to the broker was fully settled.
During the three fiscal quarters ended December 31, 2023, under the Fiscal 2023 NCIB until its expiration, the Company purchased 4,268,883 subordinate voting shares for cancellation for total cash consideration of $83.3m. The amount to purchase the subordinate voting shares was charged to share capital, with the remaining $73.6m charged to retained earnings. Of the 4,268,883 subordinate voting shares purchased, 1,184,152 were purchased under the automatic share purchase plan in connection with the Fiscal 2023 NCIB for total cash consideration of $25.3m.
During the validity of the Fiscal 2023 NCIB, the Company purchased 5,421,685, which represents the total authorized subordinate voting shares for cancellation for total cash consideration of $111.2m. Purchases were made during the validity of the Fiscal 2023 NCIB by means of open market transactions on the TSX, the NYSE and alternative trading systems in Canada and the United States.
Share capital transactions for the year ended April 2, 2023
In connection with the Fiscal 2023 NCIB, during the year ended April 2, 2023, the Company purchased 1,152,802 subordinate voting shares for cancellation for total cash consideration of $26.7m. The amount to purchase the subordinate voting shares has been charged to share capital, with the remaining $25.4m charged to retained earnings. Of the 1,152,802 subordinate voting shares purchased, 821,622 were purchased under the Fiscal 2023 ASPP for total cash consideration of $20.0m.
A liability representing the maximum amount that the Company could be required to pay the designated broker under the Fiscal 2023 ASPP was $20.0m as at April 2, 2023. The amount was charged to contributed surplus.

These liabilities have not been included in the table above as the timing and amount of future payments are uncertain.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
The Company uses off-balance sheet arrangements including letters of credit and guarantees in connection with certain obligations, including leases. In Europe, a subsidiary of the Company also entered into an agreement to factor, on a limited recourse basis, certain of its trade accounts receivable up to a limit of EUR20.0m in exchange for advanced funding equal to 100% of the principal value of the invoice. See the “Credit risk” section of this MD&A for additional details on the trade accounts receivable factoring program. Other than those items disclosed here and elsewhere in this MD&A and our financial statements, we did not have any material off-balance sheet arrangements or commitments as at March 31, 2024.

On April 14, 2020, Canada Goose Inc. entered into a letter of guarantee facility in the amount of $10.0m. Within the facility, letters of guarantee are available for terms of up to 12 months from the date of issuance and will be charged a fee equal to 1.0% per annum calculated against the face amount and over the term of the guarantee. Amounts issued on the facility will be used to finance working capital requirements through letters of guarantee, standby letters of credit, performance bonds, counter guarantees, counter standby letters of credit, or similar credits. The Company immediately reimburses the issuing bank for amounts drawn on issued letters of guarantees. As at March 31, 2024, the Company had $7.4m outstanding.
In addition, a subsidiary of the Company in Mainland China entered into letters of guarantee and as at March 31, 2024 the amount outstanding was $9.1m. Amounts will be used to support retail operations of such subsidiaries through letters of guarantee, standby letters of credit, performance bonds, counter guarantees, counter standby letters of credit, or similar credits.
OUTSTANDING SHARE CAPITAL
Canada Goose is a publicly traded company and the subordinate voting shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: GOOS) and on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX: GOOS).
-82-



As at May 10, 2024, there were 45,543,872 subordinate voting shares issued and outstanding, and 51,004,076 multiple voting shares issued and outstanding.
As at May 10, 2024, there were 4,375,016 options, 469,660 restricted share units, and 330,881 performance share units outstanding under the Company’s equity incentive plans, of which 1,929,815 options were vested as of such date. Each option is exercisable for one subordinate voting share. We expect that vested restricted share units (including performance restricted share units) will be paid at settlement through the issuance of one subordinate voting share per restricted share unit.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to certain market risks arising from transactions in the normal course of our business. Such risk is principally associated with credit risk, foreign exchange risk and interest rate risk.
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss.
Credit risk arises from the possibility that certain parties will be unable to discharge their obligations. The Company manages its credit risk through a combination of third party credit insurance and internal house risk. Credit insurance is provided by a third party for customers and is subject to continuous monitoring of the credit worthiness of the Company's customers. Insurance covers a specific amount of revenue, which may be less than the Company's total revenue with a specific customer. The Company has an agreement with a third party who has insured the risk of loss for up to 90% of trade accounts receivable from certain designated customers subject to a total deductible of $0.1m, to a maximum of $30.0m per year. As at March 31, 2024, trade accounts receivable totaling approximately $14.8m (April 2, 2023 - $10.3m) were insured subject to the policy cap. Complementary to third party insurance, the Company establishes payment terms with customers to mitigate credit risk and continues to closely monitor its trade accounts receivable credit risk exposure.
Within CG Japan, the Company has an agreement with a third party who has insured the risk of trade accounts receivable for certain designated customers for a maximum of JPY540.0m per annum subject to a deductible of 10% and applicable to accounts with receivables over JPY100k. As at March 31, 2024, trade accounts receivable totalling approximately $0.3m (JPY32.5m) were insured subject to the policy cap (April 2, 2023 - $0.7m (JPY72.8m)).
Customer deposits are received in advance from certain customers for seasonal orders to further mitigate credit risk, and applied to reduce accounts receivable when goods are shipped. As at March 31, 2024, customer deposits of $22.9m (April 2, 2023 - $0.2m) were included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

Trade accounts receivable factoring program
A subsidiary of the Company in Europe has an agreement to factor, on a limited recourse basis, certain of its trade accounts receivable up to a limit of EUR20.0m in exchange for advanced funding equal to 100% of the principal value of the invoice.
For the year ended March 31, 2024, the Company received total cash proceeds from the sale of trade accounts receivable with carrying values of $46.3m which were derecognized from the Company’s statement of financial position (April 2, 2023 - $45.7m). Fees of $0.4m were incurred during the year ended March 31, 2024 (April 2, 2023 - $0.3m) and included in net interest, finance and other costs in the statements of income. As at March 31, 2024, the outstanding amount of trade accounts receivable derecognized from the Company’s statement of financial position, but which the Company continued to service, was $0.6m (April 2, 2023 - $1.1m). Subsequent to the year ended March 31, 2024, the Company has terminated its factoring program.
Foreign exchange risk
Foreign exchange risk in operating cash flows
Our Annual Financial Statements are expressed in Canadian dollars, but a substantial portion of the Company’s revenues, purchases, and expenses are denominated in foreign currencies, primarily U.S. dollars, euros, British pounds sterling, Swiss francs, Chinese yuan, Hong Kong dollars, and Japanese yen. Furthermore, as our business in Greater China grows, transactions in Chinese yuan, Hong Kong dollar and Taiwanese dollar are expected to increase. Net monetary assets denominated in currencies other than Canadian dollars that are held in entities with Canadian dollar functional currency are translated into Canadian dollars at the foreign currency exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses of all foreign operations are translated into Canadian dollars at the foreign currency exchange rates that approximate the rates in effect at the dates when such items are recognized. As a result, we are exposed to foreign currency translation gains and losses from our foreign operations into Canadian dollars. Appreciating foreign currencies relative to the Canadian dollar, to the extent they are not hedged, will positively impact operating income and net income by increasing our revenue, while depreciating foreign currencies relative to the Canadian dollar will have the opposite impact.
We are also exposed to fluctuations in the prices of U.S. dollar and euro denominated purchases as a result of changes in U.S. dollar or euro exchange rates. Most of our raw
-84-



materials are sourced outside of Canada, primarily in U.S. dollars, and SG&A expenses are typically denominated in the currency of the country in which they are incurred. As a result, we are exposed to foreign currency exchange fluctuations on multiple currencies. A depreciating Canadian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar or euro will negatively impact operating income and net income by increasing our costs of raw materials, while an appreciating Canadian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar or euro will have the opposite impact.
The Company has entered into forward foreign exchange contracts to reduce the foreign exchange risk to fluctuations in the U.S. dollar, euro, British pound sterling, Swiss franc, Chinese yuan, Hong Kong dollar, and Japanese yen exchange rates for revenues and purchases. Certain forward foreign exchange contracts were designated at inception and accounted for as cash flow hedges. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company completed executing the operating hedge program for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2024.
The Company recognized the following unrealized gains and losses in the fair value of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges in other comprehensive income:

Foreign exchange risk on borrowings
Amounts available for borrowing under part of our Revolving Facility are denominated in U.S. dollars. As at March 31, 2024, there were no principal amounts owing under the Revolving Facility.
Amounts borrowed under the Term Loan are denominated in U.S. dollars. Based on our outstanding balances of $393.1m (USD290.3m) under the Term Loan as at March 31, 2024, a $0.01 depreciation in the value of the Canadian dollar compared to the U.S. dollar would have resulted in a decrease in our pre-tax income of $2.9m solely as a result of that exchange rate fluctuation’s effect on the debt.
The Company enters into derivative transactions to hedge a portion of its exposure to interest rate risk and foreign currency exchange risk related to principal and interest payments on the Term Loan denominated in U.S. dollars. The Company also entered into a five-year forward exchange contract by selling $368.5m and receiving USD270.0m as measured on the trade date, to fix the foreign exchange risk on a portion of the Term Loan.

Interest rate risk
The Company is exposed to interest rate risk related to the effect of interest rate changes on the borrowings outstanding under the Mainland China Facilities, Japan Facility, and the Term Loan, which currently bear interest rates at 3.10%, 0.45%, and 8.94%, respectively.
Interest rate risk on the Term Loan is partially mitigated by interest rate swap hedges. The Company entered into five-year interest rate swaps agreements terminating December 31, 2025 to pay fixing interest rate and receiving floating interest rates on notional debt of USD270.0m. Effective June 30, 2023, the floating interest benchmark reference rate contained within the swap agreements were amended from LIBOR to SOFR and the average fixed rates were reduced from 1.97% to 1.76%. These swap agreements fix the interest rate on the USD300.0m Term Loan. Following the amendment, the interest rate swaps continue to be designated and accounted for as cash flow hedges.
Based on the closing balance of outstanding borrowings, a 1.00% increase in the closing interest rate during the year ended March 31, 2024 would have increased interest expense on the Japan Facility and the Term Loan before hedging by $0.1m and $3.9m, respectively (April 2, 2023 - $0.3m, and $3.9m, respectively).
Until the third quarter ended December 31, 2023, the Company calculated interest rate sensitivity on debt facilities using the average balance of the facility and average interest rate in the reporting period. Following the third quarter, and applicable for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended March 31, 2024, the Company calculated interest rate sensitivity on debt facilities using the closing balance of the facility and the closing interest rate. The Company believes this change provides more relevant information on interest rate sensitivity. The Company has recognized this change as a change in estimates and had adjusted the disclosure prospectively.
RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Company enters into transactions from time to time with its principal shareholders and organizations affiliated with members of the Board of Directors by incurring expenses for business services. During the year ended March 31, 2024, the Company had transactions with related parties of $1.1m (April 2, 2023 - $1.3m, April 3, 2022 - $1.7m) from companies related to certain shareholders. Net balances owing to related parties as at March 31, 2024 were $0.2m (April 2, 2023 - $0.4m).

A lease liability due to the previous controlling shareholder of the acquired Baffin Inc. business (the "Baffin Vendor") for leased premises was $2.5m as at March 31, 2024 (April 2, 2023 - $3.1m). During the year ended March 31, 2024, the Company paid principal and interest on the lease liability, net of rent concessions, and other operating costs to entities affiliated with the Baffin Vendor totaling $1.6m (April 2, 2023 - $1.4m, April 3, 2022 - $1.4m). No amounts were owing to Baffin entities as at March 31, 2024 and April 2, 2023.
The Japan Joint Venture has lease liabilities due to the non-controlling shareholder, Sazaby League, for leased premises. Lease liabilities were $1.9m as at March 31, 2024 (April 2, 2023 - $2.7m). During the year ended March 31, 2024, the Company incurred principal and interest on lease liabilities, royalty fees, and other operating costs to Sazaby League totalling $5.2m (April 2, 2023 - $5.9m, April 3, 2022 - $nil). Balances owing to Sazaby League as at March 31, 2024 were $0.3m (April 2, 2023 - $0.2m).
During the year ended March 31, 2024, the Japan Joint Venture sold inventory of $1.5m to companies wholly owned by Sazaby League (April 2, 2023 - $1.7m, April 3, 2022 - $nil). As at March 31, 2024, the Japan Joint Venture recognized a trade receivable of $0.1m from these companies (April 2, 2023 - $0.1m).
Pursuant to the Joint Venture Agreement, during the year ended April 2, 2023, the Company sold inventory of $11.9m to Sazaby League for repurchase by the Japan Joint Venture for inventory fulfillment. There was no outstanding receivable from Sazaby League as at April 2, 2023. During the year ended April 2, 2023, the Japan Joint Venture repurchased $11.9m of inventory from Sazaby League. The Japan Joint Venture had no amounts owing to Sazaby League as at April 2, 2023. These transactions were measured based on pricing established through the Joint Venture Agreement at market terms and were not recognized as sales transactions.
In connection with the business combination, for the year ended March 31, 2024, the Company recognized $1.5m of remuneration costs related to the Earn-Out based on the estimated value of $7.4m for the payout. These costs have been included in other long-term liabilities on the statement of financial position, and reflects the amount owing to the PCML Vendors as at March 31, 2024.
A lease liability due to one of the PCML Vendors for leased premises was $1.2m as at March 31, 2024. During the year ended March 31, 2024, the Company paid principal and interest on the lease liability, to one of the PCML Vendors totalling less than $0.1m. No amounts were owing to one of the PCML Vendors as at March 31, 2024.

WITHDRAWAL OF LONG TERM OUTLOOK
In a press release dated February 7, 2023 entitled “Canada Goose Presents its Updated Strategic Growth Plan and Five-Year Financial Outlook” (the “February 2023 Press Release”), the Company released guidance relating to its 2028 fiscal year and related long-term targets. As more fully described in the earnings press release of the Company dated May 16, 2024, a copy of which is available under the Company’s profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and EDGAR at www.sec.gov, the Company is withdrawing the long-term guidance noted above as disclosed in the February 2023 Press Release.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Our Annual Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB. The preparation of our financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. While our material accounting policies are more fully described in the notes to our Annual Financial Statements, we believe that the following accounting policies and estimates are critical to our business operations and understanding our financial results.
The following are the accounting policies subject to judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty that we believe could have the most material impact on the amounts recognized in the Annual Financial Statements.
Revenue recognition. Revenue comprises DTC, Wholesale, and Other segment revenues. Revenue is measured at the amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for the sale of goods in the ordinary course of the Company’s activities. Revenue is presented net of sales tax, estimated returns, sales allowances, and discounts. The Company recognizes revenue when the Company has agreed terms with its customers, the contractual rights and payment terms have been identified, the contract has commercial substance, it is probable that consideration will be collected by the Company, and when control of the goods is transferred to the customer have been met.
It is the Company’s policy to sell merchandise through the DTC segment with a limited right to return, typically within 30 days. Accumulated experience is used to estimate and provide for such returns.
Inventories. Inventories are carried at the lower of cost and net realizable value which requires us to use estimates related to fluctuations in obsolescence, shrinkage, future retail prices, seasonality and costs necessary to sell the inventory.
-89-



We periodically review our inventories and make provisions as necessary to appropriately value obsolete or damaged raw materials and finished goods. In addition, as part of inventory valuations, we accrue for inventory shrinkage for lost or stolen items based on historical trends from actual physical inventory counts.
Leases. We exercise judgment when contracts are entered into that may give rise to a right-of-use asset that would be accounted for as a lease. Judgment is required in determining the appropriate lease term on a lease by lease basis. We consider all facts and circumstances that create an economic incentive to exercise a renewal option or to not exercise a termination option at inception and over the term of the lease, including investments in major leaseholds, operating performance, and changed circumstances. The periods covered by renewal or termination options are only included in the lease term if we are reasonably certain to exercise that option. Changes in the economic environment or changes in the retail industry may impact the assessment of the lease term.
We determine the present value of future lease payments by estimating the incremental borrowing rate specific to each leased asset or portfolio of leased assets. We determine the incremental borrowing rate of each leased asset or portfolio of leased assets by incorporating our creditworthiness, the security, term, and value of the underlying leased asset, and the economic environment in which the leased asset operates. The incremental borrowing rates are subject to change mainly due to macroeconomic changes in the environment.
Impairment of non-financial assets (goodwill, intangible assets, property, plant and equipment, and right-of-use assets). We are required to use judgment in determining the grouping of assets to identify their cash generating units (“CGU”) for the purposes of testing non-financial assets for impairment. Judgment is further required to determine appropriate groupings of CGUs for the level at which goodwill and intangible assets are tested for impairment. For the purpose of goodwill and intangible assets impairment testing, CGUs are grouped at the lowest level at which goodwill and intangible assets are monitored for internal management purposes. Judgment is also applied in allocating the carrying amount of assets to CGUs. In addition, judgment is used to determine whether a triggering event has occurred requiring an impairment test to be completed.
In determining the recoverable amount of a CGU or a group of CGUs, various estimates are employed. We determine value-in-use by using estimates including projected future revenues, earnings, working capital, and capital investment consistent with strategic plans presented to the Board of Directors of the Company. Discount rates are consistent with external industry information reflecting the risk associated with the specific cash flows.
Income and other taxes. Current and deferred income taxes are recognized in the statements of income, except when it relates to a business combination, or items recognized in equity or in other comprehensive income. Application of judgment is required regarding the classification of transactions and in assessing probable outcomes of claimed deductions including expectations about future operating results, the timing and reversal of temporary differences and possible audits of income tax and other tax filings by the tax authorities in the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates.
Warranty. The critical assumptions and estimates used in determining the warranty provision at the statement of financial position date are: the number of jackets expected to require repair or replacement; the proportion to be repaired versus replaced; the period in which the warranty claim is expected to occur; the cost of repair; the cost to replace a jacket; and the risk-free rate used to discount the provision to present value. We review our inputs to this estimate on an annual basis to ensure the provision reflects the most current information regarding our products.

CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Summary of accounting policies adopted
Standards issued and not yet adopted
Certain new standards, amendments, and interpretations to existing IFRS standards have been published but are not yet effective and have not been adopted early by the Company. Management anticipates that pronouncements will be adopted in the Company’s accounting policy for the first period beginning after the effective date of the pronouncement. Information on new standards, amendments, and interpretations is provided below.
In January 2020, the IASB issued an amendment to IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements (“IAS 1”) to clarify its requirements for the presentation of liabilities in the statement of financial position. The limited scope amendment affected only the presentation of liabilities in the statement of financial position and not the amount or timing of their recognition. The amendment clarified that the classification of liabilities as current or non-current is based on rights that are in existence at the end of the reporting period and specified that classification is unaffected by expectations about whether an entity will exercise its right to defer settlement of a liability. It also introduced a definition of ‘settlement’ to make clear that settlement refers to the transfer to the counterparty of cash, equity instruments, other assets or services. On October 31, 2022, the IASB issued Non-Current Liabilities with Covenants (Amendments to IAS 1). These amendments specify that covenants to be complied with after the reporting date do not affect the classification of debt as current or non-current at the reporting date. The amendment is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024. Earlier application is permitted, however the Company has elected not to early adopt this amendment. The Company has performed an initial assessment on the impact of the amendment and the Company expects that adoption will result in a reclassification of the non-current portion of warranty provisions to be reported as current in nature, based on the terms and conditions of the Company’s warranty program. The impact is expected to be material in the consolidated statements of financial position.
Standards issued and adopted
In February 2021, the IASB issued narrow-scope amendments to IAS 1, IFRS Practice Statement 2, Making Materiality Judgements and IAS 8, Accounting Polices, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors. The amendments require the disclosure of material accounting policy information rather than disclosing significant accounting policies and clarified how to distinguish changes in accounting policies from changes in accounting estimates. Beginning April 3, 2023, the Company adopted the amendments. The adoption of the amendments did not have a material impact on the Annual Financial Statements.
In May 2023, the IASB issued International Tax Reform, Pillar Two Model Rules, Amendments to IAS 12, Income Taxes (the “Amendments”). The Amendments provide the Company with an exception from recognition and disclosure requirements for deferred tax assets and liabilities arising from the OECD Pillar Two international tax reform. The mandatory temporary exception has been adopted by the Company.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Subsequent to the year ended March 31, 2024, the Company and Sazaby League amended the Joint Venture Agreement to extend the period by which the deferred contingent consideration is payable if an agreed cumulative adjusted EBIT target is not reached through the period ended June 30, 2026, to April 2, 2028.
Subsequent to the year ended March 31, 2024, the Company has terminated its trade receivables factoring program.
INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Management, including the CEO and CFO, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures were effective as at March 31, 2024 to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports it files is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the appropriate time periods and is accumulated and communicated to management, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the CEO and the CFO and effected by the Board of Directors, management and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that:
•Pertain to the maintenance of records that accurately and fairly reflect, in reasonable detail, the transactions and dispositions of assets of the Company;
•Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS and that the receipts and expenditures of the Company are made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors; and
•Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the assets of the Company that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
Management of the Company, under the supervision and with the participation of the CEO and CFO, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2024, using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) (“COSO 2013”). Based on evaluation performed, management concluded that, as of March 31, 2024, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective.
Deloitte LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm, has audited the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2024.
-92-



Limitations of Controls and Procedures
There has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the year ended March 31, 2024 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Due to its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect all misstatements. Management's projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as to future periods are subject to the risks that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

C. Board Practices
Composition of our Board of Directors
Under our articles, our board of directors consists of a number of directors as determined from time to time by the directors. Our board of directors is currently comprised of 10 directors. Our articles provide that a director may be removed with or without cause by a resolution passed by a special majority comprised of 66 2⁄3% of the votes cast by shareholders present in person or by proxy at a meeting and who are entitled to vote. The directors are elected by the shareholders at each annual general meeting of shareholders, and all directors hold office for a term expiring at the close of the next annual shareholders meeting or until their respective successors are elected or appointed. Our board of directors is led by Dani Reiss, as Chairman. Mr. Reiss is not considered to be an independent director as he is also our Chief Executive Officer. Ms. Chiquet is not considered to be an independent director as she entered into a consulting agreement with
-109-


the Company on April 24, 2023, whereby she received compensation in excess of $75,000 per year for consultancy services to the Company and its management.

Under the BCBCA and our articles, between annual general meetings of our shareholders, the directors may appoint one or more additional directors, but the number of additional directors may not at any time exceed one-third of the number of current directors who were elected or appointed other than as additional directors.
Director Term Limits and Other Mechanisms of Board Renewal
Our board of directors has not adopted director term limits, a retirement policy for its directors or other automatic mechanisms of board renewal. Rather than adopting formal term limits, mandatory age-related retirement policies and other mechanisms of board renewal, the nominating and governance committee of our board of directors develop appropriate qualifications and criteria for our board of directors as a whole and for individual directors. In accordance with its mandate, the nominating and governance committee oversees a process for the assessment of our board of directors, each committee and individual director regarding his, her or its effectiveness and contribution, and also reports evaluation results to our board of directors at least annually. It is further the responsibility of the nominating and governance committee to develop a succession plan for the board of directors, including maintaining a list of qualified candidates for director positions. The company is not in the practice of providing any severance benefits to directors upon termination of service.
Board Committees
Each of our board committees operates under its own written charter adopted by our board of directors.
Audit Committee

U.S. Shareholders. On March 31, 2024, we had 4 registered shareholders with addresses in the United States (which may include addresses of investment managers holding securities on behalf of non-U.S. beneficial owners) holding approximately 20,242,914 subordinate voting shares. Residents of the United States may beneficially own subordinate voting shares or multiple voting shares registered in the names of non-residents of the United States, and non-U.S. residents may beneficially own subordinate voting shares or multiple voting shares registered in the names of U.S. residents.
Controlled Company
We are currently controlled by Bain Capital. As of March 31, 2024, Bain Capital indirectly beneficially owns approximately 60.5% of our outstanding multiple voting shares, or approximately 55.6% of the combined voting power of our multiple voting and subordinate voting shares outstanding.
B. Related Party Transactions
Investor Rights Agreement
In connection with our IPO, we entered into an Investor Rights Agreement with Bain Capital and DTR LLC, an entity indirectly controlled by our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (the “Investor Rights Agreement”).
The following is a summary of certain registration rights and nomination rights of our principal shareholders (including their permitted affiliates and transferees) under the Investor Rights Agreement, which summary is not intended to be complete. The following discussion is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Investor Rights Agreement.
Registration Rights
Pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement, Bain Capital is entitled to certain demand registration rights which enable it to require us to file a registration statement and/or a Canadian prospectus and otherwise assist with public offerings of subordinate voting shares (including subordinate voting shares issuable upon conversion of multiple voting shares) under the Securities Act and applicable Canadian securities laws, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Investor Rights Agreement. DTR LLC is entitled to similar demand registration rights at such time as Bain Capital no longer holds securities subject to registration rights, as well as certain incidental registration rights in connection with demand registrations initiated by Bain Capital, and each of Bain Capital and DTR LLC is entitled to certain “piggy-back” registration rights in the event that we propose to register securities as part of a public offering.
We are entitled to postpone or suspend a registration request for a period of up to 60 days during any 12-month period where such registration request would require us to make any adverse disclosure. In addition, in connection with an underwritten offering, the number of securities to be registered thereunder may be limited, for marketing reasons, based on the opinion of the managing underwriter or underwriters for such offering.
All costs and expenses associated with any demand registration or “piggy-back” registration will be borne by us other than underwriting discounts, commissions and transfer taxes, if any, attributable to the sale of the subordinate voting shares (including following the conversion of multiple voting shares) by the applicable selling shareholder. We will also be required to provide indemnification and contribution for the benefit of Bain Capital and DTR LLC and their
-115-


respective affiliates and representatives in connection with any demand registration or “piggy-back” registration.
Nomination Rights
Pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement, Bain Capital is entitled to designate 50% of our directors (rounding up to the next whole number) and will continue to be entitled to designate such percentage of our directors for so long as it holds at least 40% of the number of subordinate voting shares and multiple voting shares outstanding, provided that this percentage will be reduced (i) to the greater of one director or 30% of our directors (rounding up to the next whole number) once Bain Capital holds less than 40% of the subordinate voting shares and multiple voting shares outstanding, (ii) to the greater of one director or 10% of our directors (rounding up to the next whole number) once Bain Capital holds less than 20% of the subordinate voting shares and multiple voting shares outstanding, and (iii) to none once Bain Capital holds less than 5% of the subordinate voting shares and multiple voting shares outstanding. DTR LLC is entitled to designate one director for as long as it holds 5% or more of the subordinate voting shares and multiple voting shares outstanding.
The nomination rights contained in the Investor Rights Agreement provide that Bain Capital and DTR LLC, at the relevant time, will cast all votes to which they are entitled to elect directors designated in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Investor Rights Agreement.
Other Related Party Transactions
During fiscal 2024, the company contributed approximately $0.5m to Polar Bears International (PBI), a charitable organization for which our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Dani Reiss, serves as a board member. The company also paid the Baffin vendor and related entities, which continue to be controlled by Paul Hubner, a member of management of the company, approximately $0.6m for lease costs associated with the Baffin manufacturing facility and other operating costs.
Interest of Management and Others in Material Transactions
Except as set out above or described elsewhere in this Annual Report, there are no material interests, direct or indirect, of any of our directors or executive officers, any shareholder that beneficially owns, or controls or directs (directly or indirectly), more than 10% of any class or series of our outstanding voting securities, or any associate or affiliate of any of the foregoing persons, in any transaction within the three years before the date in this Annual Report that has materially affected or is reasonably expected to materially affect us or any of our subsidiaries.
Indebtedness of Directors, Executive Officers and Employees
Except as set out above or described elsewhere in this Annual Report, as of the date of this Annual Report, none of our directors, executive officers, employees, former directors, former executive officers or former employees or any of our subsidiaries, and none of their respective associates, is indebted to us or any of our subsidiaries or another entity whose indebtedness is the subject of a guarantee, support agreement, letter of credit or other similar agreement or understanding provided by us or any of our subsidiaries, except, as the case may be, for routine indebtedness as defined under applicable securities legislations.

A. Consolidated Financial Statements and Other Financial Information
See Item 18. — “Financial Statements.”
A.7 Legal Proceedings
From time to time, we may be subject to legal or regulatory proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business, including proceedings to protect our intellectual property rights. As part of our monitoring program for our intellectual property rights, from time to time we file lawsuits for acts of trademark counterfeiting, trademark infringement, trademark dilution, patent infringement or breach of other state or foreign laws. These actions often result in seizure of counterfeit merchandise and negotiated settlements with defendants. Defendants sometime raise the invalidity or unenforceability of our proprietary rights as affirmative defenses or counterclaims.
A.8    Dividend Policy
Our board of directors does not currently intend to pay dividends on our subordinate voting shares or multiple voting shares. We currently intend to retain any future earnings to fund business development and growth, and we do not expect to pay any dividends in the foreseeable future. Any future determination to declare cash dividends will be made at the discretion of our board of directors, subject to applicable laws, and will depend on a number of factors, including our financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, contractual restrictions, general business conditions and other factors that our board of directors may deem relevant. Currently, the provisions of our senior secured credit facilities place certain limitations on the amount of cash dividends that our main operating subsidiary can pay.

B. Notice of Articles and Articles
The following is a summary of certain important provisions of our articles and certain related sections of the BCBCA. Please note that this is only a summary and is not intended to be exhaustive. This summary is subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, the provisions of our articles and the BCBCA.
Stated Objects or Purposes
Our articles do not contain stated objects or purposes and do not place any limitations on the business that we may carry on.
Directors
Power to vote on matters in which a director is materially interested. Under the BCBCA a director who has a material interest in a contract or transaction, whether made or proposed, that is material to us, must disclose such interest to us, subject to certain exceptions such as if the contract or transaction: (i) is an arrangement by way of security granted by us for money loaned to, or obligations undertaken by, the director for our benefit or for one of our affiliates’ benefit; (ii) relates to an indemnity or insurance permitted under the BCBCA; (iii) relates to the remuneration of the director in his or her capacity as director, officer, employee or agent of our company or of one of our affiliates; (iv) relates to a loan to our company while the director is the guarantor of some or all of the loan; or (v) is with a corporation that is affiliated with us while the director is also a director or senior officer of that corporation or an affiliate of that corporation.
A director who holds such disclosable interest in respect of any material contract or transaction into which we have entered or propose to enter may be required to absent himself or herself from the meeting while discussions and voting with respect to the matter are taking place. Directors will also be required to comply with certain other relevant provisions of the BCBCA regarding conflicts of interest.
Directors’ power to determine the remuneration of directors. The remuneration of our directors, if any, may be determined by our directors subject to our articles. The remuneration may be in addition to any salary or other remuneration paid to any of our employees (including executive officers) who are also directors.
Number of shares required to be owned by a director. Neither our articles nor the BCBCA provide that a director is required to hold any of our shares as a qualification for holding his or her office. Our board of directors has discretion to prescribe minimum share ownership requirements for directors. To align the economic interests of directors with those of our shareholders, directors are granted share-based compensation on an annual basis for their services and are further encouraged to purchase securities of the company. Moreover, the company has adopted director share ownership guidelines for non-executive directors, which are set at two times (2x) each director’s annual retainer, such ownership requirement to be progressively achieved over a period of five years from each director’s appointment to the board of directors. The director share ownership requirement can be satisfied through the ownership of shares directly owned, vested in-the-money stock options and restricted share units.
Issuance of Additional Multiple Voting Shares
The rules of the TSX generally prohibit us from issuing additional multiple voting shares, however there may be certain circumstances where additional multiple voting shares may be issued, including upon receiving shareholder approval. Notably, approval is not required in
-118-


connection with a subdivision or consolidation on a pro rata basis as between the subordinate voting shares and the multiple voting shares.
Subdivision or Consolidation
No subdivision or consolidation of the subordinate voting shares or the multiple voting shares may be carried out unless, at the same time, the multiple voting shares or the subordinate voting shares, as the case may be, are subdivided or consolidated in the same manner and on the same basis.
Certain Amendments and Change of Control
In addition to any other voting right or power to which the holders of subordinate voting shares shall be entitled by law or regulation or other provisions of our articles from time to time in effect, but subject to the provisions of our articles, holders of subordinate voting shares shall be entitled to vote separately as a class, in addition to any other vote of our shareholders that may be required, in respect of any alteration, repeal or amendment of our articles which would adversely affect the rights or special rights of the holders of subordinate voting shares or affect the holders of subordinate voting shares and multiple voting shares differently, on a per share basis, including an amendment to our articles that provides that any multiple voting shares sold or transferred to a Person that is not a Permitted Holder shall be automatically converted into subordinate voting shares.
Pursuant to our articles, holders of subordinate voting shares and multiple voting shares will be treated equally and identically, on a per share basis, in certain change of control transactions that require approval of our shareholders under the BCBCA, unless different treatment of the shares of each such class is approved by a majority of the votes cast by the holders of our subordinate voting shares and multiple voting shares, each voting separately as a class.
Our articles do not otherwise contain any change of control limitations with respect to a merger, acquisition or corporate restructuring that involves us.
Shareholder Meetings
Subject to applicable stock exchange requirements, we must hold a general meeting of our shareholders at least once every calendar year at a time and place determined by our board of directors, provided that the meeting must not be held later than 15 months after the preceding annual general meeting. A meeting of our shareholders may be held anywhere in or outside British Columbia.
A notice to convene a meeting, specifying the date, time and location of the meeting, and, where a meeting is to consider special business, the general nature of the special business must be sent to each shareholder entitled to attend the meeting and to each director not less than 21 days and no more than 60 days prior to the meeting, although, as a result of applicable securities laws, the minimum time for notice is effectively longer in most circumstances. Under the BCBCA, shareholders entitled to notice of a meeting may waive or reduce the period of notice for that meeting, provided applicable securities laws are met. The accidental omission to send notice of any meeting of shareholders to, or the non-receipt of any notice by, any person entitled to notice does not invalidate any proceedings at that meeting.
A quorum for meetings of shareholders is present if shareholders who, in the aggregate, hold at least 25% of the issued shares plus at least a majority of multiple voting shares entitled to be voted at the meeting are present in person or represented by proxy. If a quorum is not present
-119-


within one-half hour from the time set for the holding of any meeting of shareholders, the meeting stands adjourned to the same day in the next week at the same time and place, unless the meeting was requisitioned by shareholders, in which case the meeting is dissolved.
Under the BCBCA, shareholders holding not less than 5% of our issued voting shares may requisition a shareholder meeting for the purpose of transacting any business that may be transacted at a shareholder meeting by delivering a requisition in the prescribed form to us. Upon receiving such a requisition, we must call a meeting of shareholders to transact the business stated in the requisition on a date that is not more than four months after the date on which the requisition was received, unless one of the exemptions set out in the BCBCA apply. In this respect, if we do not call a shareholders’ meeting within 21 days after receiving the requisition, any shareholder who signed the requisition may call the meeting, subject to certain exceptions.
Holders of our subordinate voting shares and multiple voting shares are entitled to attend and vote at meetings of our shareholders except meetings at which only holders of a particular class are entitled to vote. Except as otherwise provided with respect to any particular series of preferred shares, and except as otherwise required by law, the holders of our preferred shares are not entitled as a class to receive notice of, or to attend or vote at any meetings of our shareholders. Our directors, our officers, our auditor and any other persons invited by our chairman or directors or with the consent of those at the meeting are entitled to attend any meeting of our shareholders but will not be counted in the quorum or be entitled to vote at the meeting unless he or she is a shareholder or proxyholder entitled to vote at the meeting.
Shareholder Proposals and Advance Notice Procedures
Under the BCBCA, qualified shareholders holding shares that constitute (i) at least one percent (1%) of our issued voting shares or (ii) have a fair market value in excess of C$2,000 may make proposals for matters to be considered at the annual general meeting of shareholders. Such proposals must be sent to us in advance of any proposed meeting by delivering a timely written notice in proper form to our registered office in accordance with the requirements of the BCBCA. The notice must include information on the business the shareholder intends to bring before the meeting. To be a qualified shareholder, a shareholder must currently be and have been a registered or beneficial owner of at least one share of the company for at least two years before the date of signing the proposal.
We have included certain advance notice provisions with respect to the election of our directors in our articles (the “Advance Notice Provisions”). The Advance Notice Provisions are intended to: (i) facilitate orderly and efficient annual general meetings or, where the need arises, special meetings; (ii) ensure that all shareholders receive adequate notice of board nominations and sufficient information with respect to all nominees; and (iii) allow shareholders to register an informed vote. Only persons who are nominated in accordance with the Advance Notice Provisions will be eligible for election as directors at any annual meeting of shareholders, or at any special meeting of shareholders if one of the purposes for which the special meeting was called was the election of directors.
Under the Advance Notice Provisions, a shareholder wishing to nominate a director would be required to provide us notice, in the prescribed form, within the prescribed time periods. These time periods include, (i) in the case of an annual meeting of shareholders (including annual and special meetings), not less than 30 days prior to the date of the meeting of shareholders; provided, that if the first public announcement of the date of the meeting of shareholders (the “Notice Date”) is less than 50 days before the meeting date, not later than the close of business
-120-


on the 10th day following the Notice Date; and (ii) in the case of a special meeting (which is not also an annual meeting) of shareholders called for any purpose which includes electing directors, not later than the close of business on the 15th day following the Notice Date, provided that, in either instance, if notice-and-access (as defined in National Instrument 54-101-Communication with Beneficial Owners of Securities of a Reporting Issuer) is used for delivery of proxy related materials in respect of a meeting described above, and the Notice Date in respect of the meeting is not less than 50 days prior to the date of the applicable meeting, the notice must be received not later than the close of business on the 40th day before the applicable meeting.
These provisions could have the effect of delaying until the next shareholder meeting the nomination of certain persons for director that are favored by the holders of a majority of our outstanding voting securities.
Take-Over Bid Protection
Under applicable securities laws in Canada, an offer to purchase multiple voting shares would not necessarily require that an offer be made to purchase subordinate voting shares. In accordance with the rules of the TSX designed to ensure that, in the event of a take-over bid, the holders of subordinate voting shares will be entitled to participate on an equal footing with holders of multiple voting shares, the holders of multiple voting shares have entered into a customary coattail agreement with us and a trustee (the “Coattail Agreement”). The Coattail Agreement contains provisions customary for dual-class, TSX-listed corporations designed to prevent transactions that otherwise would deprive the holders of subordinate voting shares of rights under applicable securities laws in Canada to which they would have been entitled if the multiple voting shares had been subordinate voting shares.
The undertakings in the Coattail Agreement do not apply to prevent a sale by the holders of multiple voting shares (including applicable transferees from time to time) if concurrently an offer is made to purchase subordinate voting shares that:
(a)offers a price per subordinate voting share at least as high as the highest price per share to be paid pursuant to the take-over bid for the multiple voting shares;
(b)provides that the percentage of outstanding subordinate voting shares to be taken up (exclusive of shares owned immediately prior to the offer by the offeror or persons acting jointly or in concert with the offeror) is at least as high as the percentage of multiple voting shares to be sold (exclusive of multiple voting shares owned immediately prior to the offer by the offeror and persons acting jointly or in concert with the offeror);
(c)has no condition attached other than the right not to take up and pay for subordinate voting shares tendered if no shares are purchased pursuant to the offer for multiple voting shares; and
(d)is in all other material respects identical to the offer for multiple voting shares.
In addition, the Coattail Agreement does not prevent the transfer of multiple voting shares to Permitted Holders, provided such transfer is not or would not have been subject to the requirements to make a take-over bid (if the vendor or transferee were in Canada) or constitutes or would be exempt from certain requirements applicable to take-over bids under applicable securities laws in Canada. The conversion of multiple voting shares into subordinate voting shares, whether or not such subordinate voting shares are subsequently sold, would not constitute a disposition of multiple voting shares for the purposes of the Coattail Agreement.
-121-


Under the Coattail Agreement, any sale of multiple voting shares by a holder of multiple voting shares party to the Coattail Agreement is conditional upon the transferee becoming a party to the Coattail Agreement, to the extent such transferred multiple voting shares are not automatically converted into subordinate voting shares in accordance with our articles.
The Coattail Agreement contains provisions for authorizing action by the trustee to enforce the rights under the Coattail Agreement on behalf of the holders of the subordinate voting shares. The obligation of the trustee to take such action is conditional on us or holders of the subordinate voting shares providing such funds and indemnity as the trustee may reasonably require. No holder of subordinate voting shares will have the right, other than through the trustee, to institute any action or proceeding or to exercise any other remedy to enforce any rights arising under the Coattail Agreement unless the trustee fails to act on a request authorized by holders of not less than 10% of the outstanding subordinate voting shares and reasonable funds and indemnity have been provided to the trustee.
Other than in respect of non-material amendments and waivers that do not adversely affect the interests of holders of subordinate voting shares, the Coattail Agreement provides that, among other things, it may not be amended, and no provision thereof may be waived, unless, prior to giving effect to such amendment or waiver, the following have been obtained: (a) the consent of the TSX and any other applicable securities regulatory authority in Canada; and (b) the approval of at least two-thirds of the votes cast by holders of subordinate voting shares represented at a meeting duly called for the purpose of considering such amendment or waiver, excluding votes attached to subordinate voting shares held by the holders of multiple voting shares or their affiliates and related parties and any persons who have an agreement to purchase multiple voting shares on terms which would constitute a sale or disposition for purposes of the Coattail Agreement, other than as permitted thereby.
No provision of the Coattail Agreement limits the rights of any holders of subordinate voting shares under applicable law.
Forum Selection
We have included a forum selection provision in our articles that provides that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Superior Court of Justice of the Province of Ontario, Canada and the appellate courts therefrom, will be the sole and exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf; (ii) any action or proceeding asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any of our directors, officers, or other employees to us; (iii) any action or proceeding asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the BCBCA or our articles; or (iv) any action or proceeding asserting a claim otherwise related to the relationships among us, our affiliates and their respective shareholders, directors and/or officers, but excluding claims related to our business or such affiliates. The forum selection provision also provides that our securityholders are deemed to have consented to personal jurisdiction of the provincial and federal courts located in the Province of Ontario and to service of process on their counsel in any foreign action initiated in violation of the foregoing provisions.
Limitation of Liability and Indemnification
Under the BCBCA, a company may indemnify: (i) a current or former director or officer of that company; (ii) a current or former director or officer of another corporation if, at the time such individual held such office, the corporation was an affiliate of the company, or if such individual held such office at the company’s request; or (iii) an individual who, at the request of the
-122-


company, held, or holds, an equivalent position in another entity (an “indemnifiable person”) against all costs, charges and expenses, and all eligible penalties, including an amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgment, reasonably incurred by him or her in respect of any civil, criminal, administrative or other legal proceeding or investigative action (whether current, threatened, pending or completed) in which he or she is involved because of that person’s position as an indemnifiable person, unless: (i) the individual did not act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of such company or the other entity, as the case may be; or (ii) in the case of a proceeding other than a civil proceeding, the individual did not have reasonable grounds for believing that the individual’s conduct was lawful. A company cannot indemnify an indemnifiable person if it is prohibited from doing so under its articles or by applicable law. A company may pay, as they are incurred in advance of the final disposition of an eligible proceeding, the expenses actually and reasonably incurred by an indemnifiable person in respect of that proceeding only if the indemnifiable person has provided an undertaking that, if it is ultimately determined that the payment of expenses was prohibited, the indemnifiable person will repay any amounts advanced. Subject to the aforementioned prohibitions on indemnification, a company must, after the final disposition of an eligible proceeding, pay the expenses actually and reasonably incurred by an indemnifiable person in respect of such eligible proceeding if such indemnifiable person has not been reimbursed for such expenses, and was wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the outcome of such eligible proceeding or was substantially successful on the merits in the outcome of such eligible proceeding. On application from an indemnifiable person or the company, a court may make any order the court considers appropriate in respect of an eligible proceeding, including the indemnification of penalties imposed or expenses incurred in any such proceedings and the enforcement of an indemnification agreement. As permitted by the BCBCA, our articles require us to indemnify our directors, officers, former directors or officers (and such individual’s respective heirs and legal representatives) and permit us to indemnify any person to the extent permitted by the BCBCA.
C. Material Contracts
The following is a summary of each material contract, other than material contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business, to which we are a party, for the two years immediately preceding the date of this Annual Report:
Employment Agreements
See Item 6.B. — “Directors, Senior Management and Employees” — “Compensation” — “Employment Agreements and Arrangements with Directors and Related Parties”.
Revolving Facility Credit Agreement
On June 3, 2016, Canada Goose Holdings Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Canada Goose Inc. and Canada Goose International AG, entered into a senior secured asset-based revolving facility (the “Revolving Facility”), with Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, as administrative agent, and certain financial institutions as lenders. A copy of the Revolving Facility Credit Agreement is included as Exhibit 10.3 to the company’s Registration Statement on Form F-1, as amended (File No. 333-216078), filed with the SEC on February 15, 2017, and is incorporated by reference herein. As amended through the date hereof, the amended Revolving Facility consists of the existing Revolving Facility with a reduced commitment in the amount of $417.5m with a seasonal increase of up to $467.5m during the peak season (being June 1 through November 30), and a first-in, last-out (“FILO”) Revolving Facility in the amount of
-123-


$50.0m. Borrowings under the existing Revolving Facility were transferred to the FILO Revolving Facility on the transaction date and future amounts will be drawn in priority of the FILO Revolving Facility. Amounts drawn on the FILO Revolving Facility are subject to an interest rate charge that is 2.00% higher than the existing Revolving Facility. The FILO Revolving Facility matured on May 25, 2021 and upon maturity, the credit commitments on the existing Revolving Facility were restored. On May 15, 2023, the Company entered into an amendment to the Revolving Facility. Following the amendment, the Revolving Facility has multiple interest rate charge options that are based on the Canadian prime rate, Banker's Acceptance rate, the lenders' Alternate Base Rate, European Base Rate, SOFR rate, or EURIBOR rate plus an applicable margin, with interest payable the earlier of quarterly or at the end of the then current interest period (whichever is earlier) and the term has been extended to May 15, 2028, which was previously expiring on June 3, 2024.
Term Loan Credit Agreement
On December 2, 2016, Canada Goose Holdings Inc. and Canada Goose Inc. entered into a senior secured term loan credit agreement (the “Term Loan Credit Agreement”), with Credit Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch, as administrative agent and collateral agent, and certain financial institutions as lenders, providing for the Term Loan. A copy of the Term Loan Credit Agreement is included as Exhibit 10.4 to the company’s Registration Statement on Form F-1, as amended (File No. 333-216078), filed with the SEC on February 15, 2017, and is incorporated by reference herein.
On August 15, 2017, the company entered into an amendment (the “2017 Term Loan Amendment”) to the Term Loan Credit Agreement. The 2017 Term Loan Amendment was executed in connection with the syndication of the outstanding term loans by the existing term loan lenders and, among other things: (i) added a provision whereby the company would be required to pay a 1% prepayment premium on any prepayment of the term loans made in connection with a “Repricing Transaction” (as defined in the 2017 Term Loan Amendment) or in connection with an amendment that constitutes a Repricing Transaction, in each case, within six months from August 15, 2017 and (ii) reset the “most-favored nation” protection in favor of the term loan lenders in the incremental facilities provisions of the Term Loan Credit Agreement, whereby if the company were to issue additional term loans under such incremental facilities provisions within 18 months from August 15, 2017 and the all-in yield on such additional term loans were to exceed the all-in-yield on the existing term loans by more than 50 basis points, the all-in-yield on such existing term loans would be increased so that the all-in-yield of the additional term loans does not exceed the all-in-yield on the existing term loans by more than 50 basis points. As further amended through the date hereof, the maturity date for the Term Loan Credit Agreement is October 7, 2027.
On April 9, 2021, the company entered into an amendment (the “2021 Term Loan Amendment) to the Term Loan Credit Agreement. The term loans issued in connection with the 2021 Term Loan Amendment (the “2021 Refinancing Term Loans”) were used, in part, to refinance in full all of the existing term loans outstanding under the Term Loan Credit Agreement. The interest rates for the 2021 Refinancing Term Loans are LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 3.50%, payable quarterly in arrears.
-124-


On May 9, 2023, the Company entered into an amendment to the Term Loan Credit Agreement (the “2023 Term Loan Amendment”). The interest rate governing the Term Loan following the 2023 Term Loan Amendment is SOFR plus an applicable margin of 3.50% payable quarterly in arrears, and SOFR may not be less than 0.75%.
Indemnification Agreements
We have entered into indemnification agreements with our directors and executive officers pursuant to which we have agreed to indemnify them against a number of liabilities and expenses incurred by such persons in connection with claims made by reason of their being a director or executive officer of the company. A copy of the Form of Indemnification Agreement is included as Exhibit 10.28 to the company’s Registration Statement on Form F-1, as amended (File No. 333-216078), filed with the SEC on February 15, 2017, and is incorporated by reference herein.
D. Exchange Controls
We are not aware of any governmental laws, decrees, regulations or other legislation in Canada that restrict the export or import of capital, including the availability of cash and cash equivalents for use by our affiliated companies, or that affect the remittance of dividends, interest or other payments to non-resident holders of our securities. Any remittances of dividends to residents of the United States and to other non-resident holders are, however, subject to withholding tax. See Item 10.E. - “Taxation”.
E. Taxation
Subject to the limitations and qualifications stated herein, this discussion sets forth certain material U.S. federal income tax considerations relating to the ownership and disposition by U.S. Holders (as defined below) of the subordinate voting shares. The discussion is based on the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), its legislative history, existing and proposed regulations thereunder, published rulings and court decisions, all as currently in effect and all subject to change at any time, possibly with retroactive effect. This summary applies only to U.S. Holders and does not address tax consequences to a non-U.S. Holder (as defined below) holding our subordinate voting shares.
This discussion of a U.S. Holder’s tax consequences addresses only those persons that hold our subordinate voting shares as capital assets and does not address the tax consequences to any special class of holders, including without limitation, holders (directly, indirectly or constructively) of 10% or more of our equity (based on voting power or value), dealers in securities or currencies, banks, tax-exempt organizations, insurance companies, financial institutions, broker-dealers, regulated investment companies, real estate investment trusts, traders in securities that elect the mark-to-market method of accounting for their securities holdings, persons that hold securities that are a hedge or that are hedged against currency or interest rate risks or that are part of a straddle, conversion or “integrated” transaction, U.S. expatriates, partnerships or other pass-through entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes and U.S. Holders whose functional currency for U.S. federal income tax purposes is not the U.S. dollar. This discussion does not address the effect of the U.S. federal alternative minimum tax, U.S. federal estate and gift tax, the 3.8% Medicare contribution tax on net investment income or any state, local or non-U.S. tax laws on a holder of subordinate voting shares.
For purposes of this discussion, a “U.S. Holder” is a beneficial owner of subordinate voting shares that is for U.S. federal income tax purposes: (a) an individual who is a citizen or resident
-125-


of the United States; (b) a corporation (or other entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia; (c) an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or (d) a trust (i) if a court within the United States can exercise primary supervision over its administration, and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all of the substantial decisions of that trust, or (ii) that has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S. person. The term “non-U.S. Holder” means any beneficial owner of our subordinate voting shares that is not a U.S. Holder, a partnership (or an entity or arrangement that is treated as a partnership or other pass-through entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes) or a person holding our subordinate voting shares through such an entity or arrangement.
If a partnership or an entity or arrangement that is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds our subordinate voting shares, the tax treatment of a partner will generally depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Partners in partnerships that hold our subordinate voting shares should consult their own tax advisors.
You are urged to consult your own independent tax advisor regarding the specific U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. income and other tax considerations relating to the ownership and disposition of our subordinate voting shares.
Cash Dividends and Other Distributions
As described in Item 8.A.8 above, we currently intend to retain any future earnings to fund business development and growth, and we do not expect to pay any dividends in the foreseeable future. However, to the extent there are any distributions made with respect to our subordinate voting shares, subject to the passive foreign investment company, or “PFIC,” rules discussed below, a U.S. Holder generally will be required to treat distributions received with respect to its subordinate voting shares (including the amount of Canadian taxes withheld, if any) as dividend income to the extent of our current or accumulated earnings and profits (computed using U.S. federal income tax principles), with the excess treated as a non-taxable return of capital to the extent of the holder’s adjusted tax basis in its subordinate voting shares and, thereafter, as capital gain recognized on a sale or exchange of such subordinate voting shares. There can be no assurance that we will maintain calculations of our earnings and profits in accordance with U.S. federal income tax accounting principles. U.S. Holders should therefore assume that any distribution with respect to our subordinate voting shares will constitute ordinary dividend income. Dividends paid on the subordinate voting shares will not be eligible for the dividends received deduction allowed to U.S. corporations.
Dividends paid to a non-corporate U.S. Holder by a “qualified foreign corporation” may be subject to reduced rates of taxation if certain holding period and other requirements are met. A qualified foreign corporation generally includes a foreign corporation (other than a PFIC) if (i) its shares are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States or (ii) it is eligible for benefits under a comprehensive U.S. income tax treaty that includes an exchange of information program and which the U.S. Treasury Department has determined is satisfactory for these purposes. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the availability of the reduced tax rate on dividends in light of their particular circumstances.
Non-corporate U.S. Holders will not be eligible for reduced rates of taxation on any dividends received from us if we are a PFIC in the taxable year in which such dividends are paid or in the preceding taxable year.
-126-


Special rules may apply to any “extraordinary dividend,” which is generally a dividend paid by us in an amount that is equal to or in excess of 10 percent of a U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis (or fair market value in certain circumstances) in a share of our subordinate voting shares. If we pay an “extraordinary dividend’ on our subordinate voting shares that is treated as “qualified dividend income,” then any loss derived by a non-corporate U.S. Holder from the sale or exchange of such subordinate voting shares will be treated as long-term capital loss to the extent of such dividend.
Distributions paid in a currency other than U.S. dollars will be included in a U.S. Holder’s gross income in a U.S. dollar amount based on the spot exchange rate in effect on the date of actual or constructive receipt, whether or not the payment is converted into U.S. dollars at that time. The U.S. Holder will have a tax basis in such currency equal to such U.S. dollar amount, and any gain or loss recognized upon a subsequent sale or conversion of the foreign currency for a different U.S. dollar amount will be U.S. source ordinary income or loss. If the dividend is converted into U.S. dollars on the date of receipt, a U.S. Holder generally should not be required to recognize foreign currency gain or loss in respect of the dividend income.
A U.S. Holder who pays (whether directly or through withholding) Canadian taxes with respect to dividends paid on our subordinate voting shares may be entitled to receive either a deduction or a foreign tax credit for such Canadian taxes paid. Complex limitations apply to the foreign tax credit, including the general limitation that the credit cannot exceed the proportionate share of a U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability that such U.S. Holder’s “foreign source” taxable income bears to such U.S. Holder’s worldwide taxable income. In applying this limitation, a U.S. Holder’s various items of income and deduction must be classified, under complex rules, as either “foreign source” or “U.S. source.” In addition, this limitation is calculated separately with respect to specific categories of income. Dividends paid by us generally will constitute “foreign source” income and generally will be categorized as “passive category income.” However, if 50% or more of our equity (based on voting power or value) is treated as held by U.S. persons, we will be treated as a “United States-owned foreign corporation,” in which case dividends may be treated for foreign tax credit limitation purposes as “foreign source” income to the extent attributable to our non-U.S. source earnings and profits and as “U.S. source” income to the extent attributable to our U.S. source earnings and profits. Because the foreign tax credit rules are complex, in the event we pay a dividend subject to Canadian dividend withholding tax, each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the foreign tax credit rules.
Sale or Disposition of Subordinate Voting Shares
A U.S. Holder generally will recognize gain or loss on the taxable sale or exchange of its subordinate voting shares in an amount equal to the difference between the U.S. dollar amount realized on such sale or exchange (determined in the case of subordinate voting shares sold or exchanged for currencies other than U.S. dollars by reference to the spot exchange rate in effect on the date of the sale or exchange or, if the subordinate voting shares sold or exchanged are traded on an established securities market and the U.S. Holder is a cash basis taxpayer or an electing accrual basis taxpayer, the spot exchange rate in effect on the settlement date) and the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the subordinate voting shares determined in U.S. dollars. The initial tax basis of the subordinate voting shares to a U.S. Holder will be the U.S. Holder’s U.S. dollar purchase price for the subordinate voting shares (determined by reference to the spot exchange rate in effect on the date of the purchase, or if the subordinate voting shares purchased are traded on an established securities market and the U.S. Holder is a cash basis taxpayer or an electing accrual basis taxpayer, the spot exchange rate in effect on the settlement date).
-127-


Assuming we are not a PFIC and have not been treated as a PFIC during a U.S. Holder’s holding period for our subordinate voting shares, such gain or loss will be capital gain or loss and will be long-term gain or loss if the subordinate voting shares have been held for more than one year. Under current law, long-term capital gains of non-corporate U.S. Holders generally are eligible for reduced rates of taxation. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations. Capital gain or loss, if any, recognized by a U.S. Holder generally will be treated as U.S. source income or loss for U.S. foreign tax credit purposes. U.S. Holders are encouraged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the availability of the U.S. foreign tax credit in their particular circumstances.
Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations
Status as a PFIC
The rules governing PFICs can have adverse tax effects on U.S. Holders. We generally will be classified as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes if, for any taxable year, either: (1) 75% or more of our gross income consists of certain types of passive income, or (2) the average value (determined on a quarterly basis), of our assets that produce, or are held for the production of, passive income is 50% or more of the value of all of our assets.
Passive income generally includes dividends, interest, rents and royalties (other than certain rents and royalties derived in the active conduct of a trade or business), annuities and gains from assets that produce passive income. If a non-U.S. corporation owns at least 25% by value of the stock of another corporation, the non-U.S. corporation is treated for purposes of the PFIC tests as owning its proportionate share of the assets of the other corporation and as receiving directly its proportionate share of the other corporation’s income.
Additionally, if we are classified as a PFIC in any taxable year with respect to which a U.S. Holder owns subordinate voting shares, we generally would continue to be treated as a PFIC with respect to such U.S. Holder in all succeeding taxable years, regardless of whether we continue to meet the tests described above.
We do not believe that we were a PFIC in 2024, and we do not anticipate becoming a PFIC in the foreseeable future. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the determination of whether we are a PFIC is made annually and depends on the particular facts and circumstances (such as the valuation of our assets, including goodwill and other intangible assets) and may also be affected by the application of the PFIC rules, which are subject to differing interpretations. No assurance can be provided that we are not currently a PFIC or that we will not become a PFIC in any future taxable year. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding our potential PFIC status.
U.S. federal income tax treatment of a shareholder of a PFIC
If we are classified as a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder owns subordinate voting shares, the U.S. Holder, absent certain elections (including the mark-to-market and QEF elections described below), generally will be subject to adverse rules (regardless of whether we continue to be classified as a PFIC) with respect to (i) any “excess distributions” (generally, any distributions received by the U.S. Holder on its subordinate voting shares in a taxable year that are greater than 125% of the average annual distributions received by the U.S. Holder in the three preceding taxable years or, if shorter, the U.S. Holder’s holding period for its subordinate voting shares) and (ii) any gain realized on the sale or other disposition, including a pledge, of its subordinate voting shares.
-128-


Under these adverse rules (a) the excess distribution or gain will be allocated ratably over the U.S. Holder’s holding period, (b) the amount allocated to the current taxable year and any taxable year prior to the first taxable year in which we are classified as a PFIC will be taxed as ordinary income and (c) the amount allocated to each other taxable year during the U.S. Holder’s holding period in which we were classified as a PFIC (i) will be subject to tax at the highest rate of tax in effect for the applicable category of taxpayer for that year and (ii) will be subject to an interest charge at a statutory rate with respect to the resulting tax attributable to each such other taxable year. In addition, if a U.S. Holder dies while owning the subordinate voting shares, the U.S. Holder’s successor would be ineligible to receive a step-up in the tax basis of such shares.
If we are a PFIC for any taxable year during a U.S. Holder’s holding period for our subordinate voting shares and any of our non-United States subsidiaries or other corporate entities in which we directly or indirectly own equity interests is also a PFIC, the U.S. Holder would be treated as owning a proportionate amount (by value) of the shares of each such non-United States entity classified as a PFIC (each such entity, a lower-tier PFIC) for purposes of the application of these rules. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisor regarding the application of the PFIC rules to any of our lower tier PFICs.
PFIC “mark-to-market” election
In certain circumstances, a U.S. Holder can avoid certain of the adverse rules described above by making a mark-to-market election with respect to its subordinate voting shares, provided that the subordinate voting shares are “marketable.” Subordinate voting shares will be marketable if they are “regularly traded” on a “qualified exchange” or other market within the meaning of applicable U.S. Treasury Regulations. The NYSE is a “qualified exchange.” U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors with respect to such rules.
A U.S. Holder that makes a mark-to-market election must include in gross income, as ordinary income, for each taxable year that we are a PFIC an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the U.S. Holder’s subordinate voting shares at the close of the taxable year over the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in its subordinate voting shares. An electing U.S. Holder may also claim an ordinary loss deduction for the excess, if any, of the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in its subordinate voting shares over the fair market value of its subordinate voting shares at the close of the taxable year, but this deduction is allowable only to the extent of any net mark-to-market gains previously included in income. A U.S. Holder that makes a mark-to-market election generally will adjust such U.S. Holder’s tax basis in its subordinate voting shares to reflect the amount included in gross income or allowed as a deduction because of such mark-to-market election. Gains from an actual sale or other disposition of subordinate voting shares in a year in which we are a PFIC will be treated as ordinary income, and any losses incurred on a sale or other disposition of subordinate voting shares will be treated as ordinary losses to the extent of any net mark-to-market gains previously included in income.
If we are classified as a PFIC for any taxable year in which a U.S. Holder owns subordinate voting shares but before a mark-to-market election is made, the adverse PFIC rules described above will apply to any mark-to market gain recognized in the year the election is made. Otherwise, a mark-to-market election will be effective for the taxable year for which the election is made and all subsequent taxable years. The election cannot be revoked without the consent of the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) unless the subordinate voting shares cease to be marketable, in which case the election is automatically terminated.
-129-


A mark-to-market election is not permitted for the shares of any of our subsidiaries that are also classified as PFICs. Prospective investors should consult their own tax advisors regarding the availability of, and the procedure for making, a mark-to-market election.
PFIC “QEF” election
In some cases, a shareholder of a PFIC can avoid the interest charge and the other adverse PFIC consequences described above by obtaining certain information from such PFIC and by making a QEF election to be taxed currently on its share of the PFIC’s undistributed income. We do not, however, expect to provide the information regarding our income that would be necessary in order for a U.S. Holder to make a QEF election with respect to subordinate voting shares if we are classified as a PFIC.
PFIC information reporting requirements
If we are a PFIC in any year, a U.S. Holder of subordinate voting shares in such year will be required to file an annual information return on IRS Form 8621 regarding distributions received on such subordinate voting shares and any gain realized on disposition of such subordinate voting shares. In addition, if we are a PFIC, a U.S. Holder will generally be required to file an annual information return with the IRS (also on IRS Form 8621, which PFIC shareholders are required to file with their U.S. federal income tax or information return) relating to their ownership of subordinate voting shares.
NO ASSURANCE CAN BE GIVEN THAT WE ARE NOT CURRENTLY A PFIC OR THAT WE WILL NOT BECOME A PFIC IN THE FUTURE. U.S. HOLDERS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS WITH RESPECT TO THE OPERATION OF THE PFIC RULES AND RELATED REPORTING REQUIREMENTS IN LIGHT OF THEIR PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES, INCLUDING THE ADVISABILITY OF MAKING ANY ELECTION THAT MAY BE AVAILABLE.
Reporting Requirements and Backup Withholding
Information reporting to the U.S. Internal Revenue Service generally will be required with respect to payments on the subordinate voting shares and proceeds of the sale, exchange or redemption of the subordinate voting shares paid within the United States or through certain U.S.-related financial intermediaries to holders that are U.S. taxpayers, other than exempt recipients. A “backup” withholding tax may apply to those payments if such holder fails to provide a taxpayer identification number to the paying agent or fails to certify that no loss of exemption from backup withholding has occurred (or if such holder otherwise fails to establish an exemption). We or the applicable paying agent will withhold on a distribution if required by applicable law. The amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules are not an additional tax and may be refunded, or credited against the holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, if any, provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.
Canadian Tax Implications for Non-Canadian Holders
The following is a general summary, as of the date hereof, of the principal Canadian federal income tax considerations under the Income Tax Act (Canada) and the regulations thereunder (collectively, the “Tax Act”) generally applicable to the holding and disposition of subordinate voting shares by a beneficial owner. This summary only applies to such a holder who, for the purposes of the Tax Act and at all relevant times: (1) is not, and is not deemed to be, resident in Canada for purposes of any applicable income tax treaty or convention; (2) deals at arm’s length with us; (3) is not affiliated with us; (4) does not use or hold, and is not deemed to use
-130-


or hold, subordinate voting shares in a business carried on in Canada; (5) has not entered into, with respect to the subordinate voting shares, a “derivative forward agreement” as that term is defined in the Tax Act and (6) holds the subordinate voting shares as capital property (a “Non-Canadian Holder”). Special rules, which are not discussed in this summary, may apply to a Non-Canadian Holder that is an insurer carrying on an insurance business in Canada and elsewhere or that is an “authorized foreign bank” as that term is defined in the Tax Act.
This summary is based on the current provisions of the Tax Act, and an understanding of the current administrative policies of the Canada Revenue Agency (“CRA”) published in writing prior to the date hereof. This summary takes into account all specific proposals to amend the Tax Act and the Canada-United States Tax Convention (1980), as amended (the “Canada-U.S. Tax Treaty”) publicly announced by or on behalf of the Minister of Finance (Canada) prior to the date hereof (the “Proposed Amendments”) and assumes that all Proposed Amendments will be enacted in the form proposed. However, no assurances can be given that the Proposed Amendments will be enacted as proposed, or at all. This summary does not otherwise take into account or anticipate any changes in law or administrative policy or assessing practice whether by legislative, regulatory, administrative or judicial action nor does it take into account tax legislation or considerations of any province, territory or foreign jurisdiction, which may differ from those discussed herein.
This summary is of a general nature only and is not, and is not intended to be, legal or tax advice to any particular shareholder. This summary is not exhaustive of all Canadian federal income tax considerations. Accordingly, you should consult your own tax advisor with respect to your particular circumstances. Generally, for purposes of the Tax Act, all amounts relating to the acquisition, holding or disposition of the subordinate voting shares must be converted into Canadian dollars based on the exchange rates as determined in accordance with the Tax Act. The amount of any dividends required to be included in the income of, and capital gains or capital losses realized by, a Non-Canadian Holder may be affected by fluctuations in the Canadian exchange rate.
Dividends
Dividends paid or credited on the subordinate voting shares or deemed to be paid or credited on the subordinate voting shares to a Non-Canadian Holder will be subject to Canadian withholding tax at the rate of 25%, subject to any reduction in the rate of withholding to which the Non-Canadian Holder is entitled under any applicable income tax convention between Canada and the country in which the Non-Canadian Holder is resident. For example, under the Canada-U.S. Tax Treaty, where dividends on the subordinate voting shares are considered to be paid to or derived by a Non-Canadian Holder that is a beneficial owner of the dividends and is a U.S. resident for the purposes of, and is entitled to benefits of, the Canada-U.S. Tax Treaty, the applicable rate of Canadian withholding tax is generally reduced to 15%. A disposition of subordinate voting shares to us may in certain circumstances result in a deemed dividend.
Dispositions
A Non-Canadian Holder will not be subject to tax under the Tax Act on any capital gain realized on a disposition or deemed disposition of a subordinate voting share, unless, at the time of disposition, the subordinate voting shares are “taxable Canadian property” to the Non-Canadian Holder for purposes of the Tax Act and the Non-Canadian Holder is not entitled to relief under an applicable income tax convention between Canada and the country in which the Non-Canadian Holder is resident.
-131-


Generally, the subordinate voting shares will not constitute “taxable Canadian property” to a Non-Canadian Holder at a particular time provided that the subordinate voting shares are listed at that time on a “designated stock exchange” (as defined in the Tax Act), which includes the NYSE and the TSX, unless at any particular time during the 60-month period that ends at that time (i) one or any combination of (a) the Non-Canadian Holder, (b) persons with whom the Non-Canadian Holder does not deal at arm’s length, and (c) partnerships in which the Non-Canadian Holder or a person described in (b) holds a membership interest directly or indirectly through one or more partnerships, has owned 25% or more of the issued shares of any class or series of our capital stock, and (ii) more than 50% of the fair market value of the subordinate voting shares was derived, directly or indirectly, from one or any combination of : (i) real or immoveable property situated in Canada, (ii) “Canadian resource properties” (as defined in the Tax Act), (iii) “timber resource properties” (as defined in the Tax Act) and (iv) options in respect of, or interests in, or for civil law rights in, property in any of the foregoing whether or not the property exists. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in certain circumstances set out in the Tax Act, subordinate voting shares could be deemed to be “taxable Canadian property.” Non-Canadian Holders whose subordinate voting shares may constitute “taxable Canadian property” should consult their own tax advisors.
THE ABOVE DISCUSSION DOES NOT COVER ALL TAX MATTERS THAT MAY BE OF IMPORTANCE TO A PARTICULAR INVESTOR. YOU ARE STRONGLY URGED TO CONSULT YOUR OWN TAX ADVISOR ABOUT THE TAX CONSEQUENCES TO YOU OF AN INVESTMENT IN THE SUBORDINATE VOTING SHARES.

ITEM 16F. CHANGE IN REGISTRANT’S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT
Not applicable.
ITEM 16G. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
The listing rules of the NYSE (the “NYSE Listing Rules”), include certain accommodations in the corporate governance requirements that allow foreign private issuers, such as us, to follow “home country” corporate governance practices in lieu of the otherwise applicable corporate governance standards of the NYSE. The application of such exceptions requires that we disclose any significant ways that our corporate governance practices differ from the NYSE Listing Rules that we do not follow. We are currently a “controlled company” as defined in the NYSE Listing Rules. Upon ceasing to be a “controlled company”, as a foreign private issuer, we intend to continue to follow Canadian corporate governance practices and TSX rules in lieu of the corporate governance requirements of the NYSE in respect of the following:
•the requirement under Section 303A.01 of the NYSE Listing Rules that a majority of the board be comprised of independent directors;
•the requirement under Section 303A.04 of the NYSE Listing Rules that director nominees be selected or recommended for selection by a nominations committee comprised solely of independent directors and to post the charter for that committee on our investor website;
•the requirement under Section 303A.05 of the NYSE Listing Rules to have a compensation committee that is comprised solely of independent directors and to post the charter for that committee on our investor website;
•the requirement under Section 303A.08 of the NYSE Listing Rules that shareholders be given the opportunity to vote on all equity-compensation plans and material revisions thereto; and
•the requirement under Section 303A.09 of the NYSE Listing Rules to have a set of corporate governance guidelines and to disclose such guidelines on our investor website.
The NYSE Listing Rules generally require that a listed company’s articles provide for a quorum for any meeting of the holders of the company’s voting shares that is sufficiently high to ensure a representative vote. Pursuant to the NYSE Listing Rules, the company, as a foreign private issuer, has elected to comply with practices that are permitted under Canadian securities laws in lieu of the provisions of NYSE. The company’s articles provide that a quorum of shareholders shall be shareholders present in person or represented by proxy who, together, hold not less than 25% of the issued shares plus at least a majority of multiple voting shares entitled to be voted at the meeting. We may in the future decide to use other foreign private issuer exemptions with respect to some of the other NYSE Listing Rules. Following the company’s home country governance practices, as opposed to the requirements that would otherwise apply to a company

listed on the NYSE, may provide less protection than is accorded to investors under the NYSE Listing Rules applicable to U.S. domestic issuers.

ITEM 16K. CYBERSECURITY
Cybersecurity Risk Management and Strategy
The safety and security of our customers and team members is our top priority. This includes working to put in place appropriate administrative, physical and technical cybersecurity safeguards to help protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the data assets that keep our operation running and securely store the information in our care. We have developed and implemented a cybersecurity risk management program intended to protect the Company and its customers from data loss, unauthorized access, use or disclosure of data as well as to prevent service interruptions.
Our cybersecurity team is tasked with assessing, identifying and managing risks related to cybersecurity threats and is responsible for:
•proactive detection and assessment of threats and vulnerabilities through vulnerability testing, penetration testing and attack simulation;
•development of risk-based action plans to manage identified vulnerabilities and implementation of new protocols and infrastructure improvements;
•cybersecurity incident investigations, with the assistance of third-party experts as required;
•monitoring threats to sensitive data and unauthorized access to Company systems, with assistance of third-party data loss prevention software and a third-party security operations center;
•performing cybersecurity risk assessments of key vendors and counterparties to ensure compliance with our and our clients’ cybersecurity standards;
•developing and executing protocols to ensure that information regarding cybersecurity incidents is promptly shared with our executive leadership team, Audit Committee and Board, as appropriate, to allow for risk and materiality assessments and to consider disclosure and notice requirements;
•developing and implementing periodic training on cybersecurity, information security and threat awareness; and
•collaborating with law enforcement and other companies on cybersecurity incidents and best practices.
There were no cybersecurity incidents during the year ended March 31, 2024, that resulted in an interruption to our operations, known losses of any critical data or otherwise had a material impact on the Company’s strategy, financial condition or results of operations. However, the
-139-



scope and impact of any future incident cannot be predicted. See “Item 3D—Risk Factors” for more information on how material cybersecurity attacks may impact our business.
Governance
Our cybersecurity risk management program is overseen by our Chief Digital Officer (“CDO”) and our Chief Technology Officer (“CTO”). The CDO and CTO assist the Board of Directors and our senior leadership team in fulfilling their responsibilities for cybersecurity governance, approval and oversight through the periodic reporting and review of security strategy and risk management practices. The Company’s current CDO has over twenty years of experience in e-commerce, digital experience and strategy, information technology, and social and omnichannel. He has held several digital marketing leadership roles across a variety of organizations. Our current CTO has over twenty years of experience in information security, and her background includes technical experience, strategy and architecture focused roles, cyber and threat experience, and various leadership roles. Our cybersecurity risk management program is integrated into our overall risk management processes and shares common reporting channels and governance processes that apply across the enterprise to other legal, compliance, strategic, operational, and financial risk governance programs.
Our Board recognizes the importance of robust cybersecurity management programs and is actively engaged in overseeing and reviewing the Company’s cybersecurity risk profile and exposures. Our Board has delegated the oversight of our process for assessing, identifying and managing material risks related to cybersecurity threats to the Audit Committee.
The responsibilities of the Audit Committee include reviewing the cybersecurity threat landscape facing the Company, as well as our strategy, policies and procedures to mitigate cybersecurity risks and any significant cybersecurity incidents. The Audit Committee also considers the impact of emerging cybersecurity developments and regulations that may affect the Company.
The Audit Committee and the Board meet periodically with relevant members of management, including the CDO and CTO, who provide reports on cybersecurity matters including, among others: recent external cybersecurity threats and attack trends; updates to threat monitoring processes; the composition of our cybersecurity team; cybersecurity awareness training and stress testing; cybersecurity strategy; cybersecurity metrics, assessments and peer ratings; and cybersecurity programs. The Audit Committee has also directed management to inform the committee promptly and, when appropriate the Board, of any investigation of a material cybersecurity incident. Where an update has not been provided directly to the Board, the Audit Committee provides the full Board with updates on cybersecurity risks and incidents and other matters as needed, and reports to the Board on an ad hoc basis with respect to material incidents and other developments that the Audit Committee believes should have the Board of directors’ consideration. The Audit Committee and the Board may, third party advisors and experts, and meet with the Company’s external advisors on cybersecurity matters, as appropriate.

Annual Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2024
F-1

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the shareholders and the Board of Directors of Canada Goose Holdings Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of Canada Goose Holdings Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of March 31, 2024 and April 2, 2023, the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 2024, and the related notes and the schedule of Condensed Financial Information of Canada Goose Holdings Inc. (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2024 and April 2, 2023 and its financial performance and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 2024, in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated May 15, 2024, expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgements. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
F-2

Inventory Obsolescence– Refer to Notes 2k, 3 and 10 to the financial statements
Critical Audit Matter Description
Inventory comprises raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods and is carried at the lower of cost and net realizable value. In estimating net realizable value, the Company uses estimates related to fluctuations in inventory levels, planned production, customer behaviour, obsolescence, future selling prices, seasonality and costs necessary to sell the inventory. As a result of management’s analysis, included in inventory are provisions for obsolete inventory.
Given the importance of inventory to the Company’s operations and the judgement involved in determining net realizable value related to finished goods inventory, specifically estimated future revenue (future selling prices and product demand); our audit procedures involved a high degree of auditor judgement and an increased extent of audit effort.
How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
Our audit procedures related to the future revenue used in determining net realizable value related to finished good inventory included the following, among others:
•Evaluated the effectiveness of controls, including those related to management’s process for developing the estimates used in the determination of net realizable value and the provisions for obsolete inventory.
•Analyzed inventory levels and revenue to evaluate the completeness of management’s identified population of inventory with obsolescence exposure.
•Performed a retrospective review on the prior year estimated future revenue and compared it to current year activity to evaluate management's ability to accurately estimate the net realizable value.
•Evaluated the reasonableness of future selling prices and product demand by:
◦Comparing future selling price assumptions to historical trends and recent transactions.
◦Assessing management’s merchandising strategy to evaluate the reasonableness of management’s assumptions relating to the expected impact on overall product demand.
◦Considering industry trends and evidence obtained in other areas of the audit.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the shareholders and the Board of Directors of Canada Goose Holdings Inc.
Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Canada Goose Holdings Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended March 31, 2024, of the Company and our report dated May 15, 2024, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.
Basis for Opinion
The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are
F-4

subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

These consolidated financial statements were authorized for issuance by the Company’s Board of Directors on May 15, 2024.
Fiscal year
The Company's fiscal year is a 52 or 53-week reporting cycle with the fiscal year ending on the Sunday closest to March 31. Each fiscal quarter is 13 weeks for a 52-week fiscal year. The additional week in a 53-week fiscal year is added to the third quarter. Fiscal 2022 was the first 53-week fiscal year, which ended on April 3, 2022. Fiscal 2024 is a 52-week fiscal year.
Operating segments
The Company classifies its business in three operating and reportable segments: Direct-to-Consumer (“DTC”), Wholesale, and Other. The DTC segment comprises sales through country-specific e-Commerce platforms available across numerous markets, which includes the newly launched recommerce platform Canada Goose Generations, currently available in the United States and Canada, and our Company-owned retail stores located in luxury shopping locations.
The Wholesale segment comprises sales made to a mix of retailers and international distributors, who are partners that have exclusive rights to an entire market. The Wholesale segment includes the introduction of travel retail in the second quarter of fiscal 2024.
The Other segment comprises revenue and costs that are not related to the Company’s DTC or Wholesale segments, such as sales to employees, friends and family sales, and results from the

(in millions of Canadian dollars, except share and per share data)
newly acquired Paola Confectii business (see "Note 5. Business Combinations" for details and definitions).
Seasonality
Our business is seasonal, and we have historically realized a significant portion of our Wholesale revenue and operating income in the second and third quarters of the fiscal year and DTC revenue and operating income in the third and fourth quarters of the fiscal year. Thus, lower-than-expected revenue in these periods could have an adverse impact on our annual operating results.
Cash flows from operating activities are typically highest in the third and fourth quarters of the fiscal year due to revenue from the DTC segment and the collection of trade receivables from Wholesale revenue earlier in the year. Working capital requirements typically increase as inventory builds. Borrowings have historically increased in the first and second quarters and been repaid in the third quarter of the fiscal year.
Note 2.    Material accounting policy information
(a)Basis of presentation
The consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, the Company’s functional and presentation currency.
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for the following items, which are recorded at fair value:
•financial instruments, including derivative financial instruments, at fair value in other comprehensive income and through profit or loss as described in “Note 21. Financial instruments and fair values” and
•initial recognition of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination.
Certain comparative figures have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation. Foreign exchange gains and losses related to the outstanding principal balance on the Term Loan, net of hedging, are reflected in the presentation of net interest, finance and other costs as outlined below (see “Note 17. Borrowings” for details and definitions); previously this was presented in SG&A expenses. This change was made to present all financing costs related to the Term Loan within the same financial statement caption in the consolidated statements of income. For the year ended April 2, 2023 and April 3, 2022, the Company reclassified foreign exchange losses of $12.1m and $2.8m, respectively. This reclassification did not impact net income, earnings per share, or the consolidated statements of financial position in the comparative year.
As at March 31, 2024, the Company amended the allocation basis for certain SG&A expenses between the operating segments to provide more relevant information on financial performance of each operating segment. The reclassification did not impact net income, earnings per share, or the consolidated statements of financial position in the comparative year. Comparative figures have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.

(in millions of Canadian dollars, except share and per share data)
(b)Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Canada Goose Holdings Inc. and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
(c)Foreign currency translation and transactions
The functional currency of each of the Company’s subsidiaries is the currency of the primary economic environment in which each entity operates. The assets and liabilities of subsidiaries whose functional currency is not the Canadian dollar are translated into the functional currency of the Company using the exchange rate at the reporting date. Revenues and expenses are translated at exchange rates prevailing at the transaction date. The resulting foreign exchange translation differences are recorded as a currency translation adjustment in other comprehensive income.
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency of each of the Company’s subsidiaries using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transactions or valuation when items are remeasured. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the changes at period-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognized in the statements of income in SG&A expenses, except when included in other comprehensive income for qualifying cash flow and net investment hedges.
    Functional currency of subsidiary
Each entity within the Company determines its functional currency based on the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. Once an entity's functional currency is determined, it is not changed unless there is a change to the underlying transactions, events, and conditions that determine the entity's primary economic environment.
(d)Revenue recognition
Revenue comprises DTC, Wholesale and Other segment revenues. Revenue is measured at the amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for the sale of goods in the ordinary course of the Company’s activities. Revenue is presented net of sales tax, estimated returns, sales allowances, and discounts. The Company recognizes revenue when the Company has agreed terms with its customers, the contractual rights and payment terms have been identified, the contract has commercial substance, it is probable that consideration will be collected by the Company, and when control of the goods is transferred to the customer.
It is the Company’s policy to sell merchandise through the DTC channel with a limited right of return, typically within 30 days. Accumulated experience is used to estimate and provide for such returns.
F-12

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2024
(in millions of Canadian dollars, except share and per share data)
(e)Business combination
Acquisitions of businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method as of the acquisition date, which is the date when control is transferred to the Company. The consideration transferred in a business combination is measured at fair value, calculated as the sum of the acquisition date fair values of the assets transferred, liabilities incurred by the Company, and the equity interests issued by the Company in exchange for control of the acquiree. Transaction costs that the Company incurs in connection with a business combination are recognized in the statements of income as incurred.
Goodwill is measured as the excess of the sum of the fair value of the consideration transferred over the net of the acquisition date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed.
When the consideration transferred in a business combination includes contingent consideration, the contingent consideration is measured at its acquisition date fair value. Contingent consideration is remeasured at subsequent reporting dates at its fair value, and the resulting gain or loss recognized in the statements of income.
(f)Non-controlling interest
Non-controlling interest is measured based on the proportionate share of the acquiree's identifiable net assets. Transactions with non-controlling interests are treated as transactions with equity owners of the Company. Changes in the Company's ownership interest are accounted for as equity transactions.
(g)Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to ordinary equity holders by the weighted average number of multiple and subordinate voting shares outstanding during the year.
Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to ordinary equity holders of the Company by the weighted average number of multiple and subordinate voting shares outstanding during the year plus the weighted average number of subordinate shares that would be issued on the exercise of stock options and settlement of restricted share units (“RSUs”) and performance share units (“PSUs”).
(h)Income taxes
Current and deferred income taxes are recognized in the statements of income, except when it relates to a business combination, or items recognized in equity or in other comprehensive income.
Current income tax
Current income tax is the expected income tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the period, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to income tax payable in respect of previous years.
F-13

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2024
(in millions of Canadian dollars, except share and per share data)
Deferred income tax
Deferred income tax is provided using the liability method for temporary differences at the reporting date between the income tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.
Deferred income tax is measured using enacted or substantively enacted income tax rates expected to apply in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. A deferred tax asset is recognized for unused income tax losses and credits to the extent that it is probable that future taxable income will be available against which they can be utilized.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable income will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilized. Unrecognized deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and are recognized to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable income will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
Deferred income tax relating to items recognized outside profit or loss is recognized outside profit or loss. Deferred tax items are recognized in correlation to the underlying transaction either in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current income tax assets against current income tax liabilities and the deferred tax relates to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.
Deferred income tax is provided on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by the Company and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
As disclosed in Note 4. Changes in accounting policies, the Company has applied the mandatory exception to recognizing and disclosing information about deferred tax assets and liabilities related to Pillar Two rules in accordance with amendments to IAS 12 Income Taxes.
(i)Cash
Cash consists of cash and cash equivalents, including cash on hand, deposits in banks, and short-term deposits with maturities of less than three months. The Company uses the indirect method of reporting cash flows from operating activities.
(j)Trade receivables
Trade receivables, including credit card receivables, consist of amounts owing on product sales where we have extended credit to customers, and are initially recognized at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less expected credit loss and sales allowances. The allowance for expected credit losses is recorded against trade receivables and is based on historical experience.
F-14

March 31, 2024
(in millions of Canadian dollars, except share and per share data)
(k)Inventories
Raw materials, work-in-process, and finished goods are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined using the weighted average cost method. The cost of work-in-process and finished goods inventories include the cost of raw materials and an applicable share of the cost of labour and fixed and variable production overhead costs, including the depreciation of property, plant and equipment used in the production of finished goods, design costs, and other costs incurred to bring the inventories to their present location and condition.
The Company estimates net realizable value as the amount at which inventories are expected to be sold, taking into consideration fluctuations in selling prices due to seasonality, less estimated costs necessary to complete the sale.
Inventories are written down to net realizable value when the cost of inventories is estimated to be unrecoverable due to obsolescence, damage, or declining selling prices. Inventory is adjusted to reflect estimated loss (“shrinkage”) incurred since the last inventory count. Shrinkage is based on historical experience. When circumstances that previously caused inventories to be written down below cost no longer exist or when there is clear evidence of an increase in realizable value, the amount of the write-down previously recorded is reversed.
Storage costs, indirect administrative overhead and certain selling costs related to inventories are expensed in the period that these costs are incurred.
(l)Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset, including costs incurred to prepare the asset for its intended use and capitalized borrowing costs, when the recognition criteria are met. The commencement date for capitalization of costs occurs when the Company first incurs expenditures for the qualifying assets and undertakes the required activities to prepare the assets for their intended use.
Property, plant and equipment assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives when the assets are available for use. When significant parts of a fixed asset have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate components and depreciated separately. Depreciation methods and useful lives are reviewed annually and are adjusted for prospectively, if appropriate. Estimated useful lives are as follows:
Asset CategoryEstimated Useful Life
Plant equipment (except moulds)10 years
Footwear moulds5 years
Computer equipment3 years
Leasehold improvementsLesser of the lease term or useful life of the asset
Show displays5 years
Furniture and fixtures
5 to 10 years

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2024
(in millions of Canadian dollars, except share and per share data)
An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognized is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset, calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset, is included in the statements of income when the asset is derecognized.
The cost of repairs and maintenance of property, plant and equipment is expensed as incurred and recognized in the statements of income.
Property, plant and equipment are reviewed at the end of each reporting period to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the asset is then tested for impairment by comparing its recoverable amount to its carrying value. Impairment losses are recorded in the statements of income.
(m)Intangible assets
Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. The cost of an intangible asset acquired in a business combination is its fair value as at the date of acquisition. Following initial recognition, intangible assets with finite lives are carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses.
The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed as either finite or indefinite.
Asset CategoryEstimated Useful Life
Brand nameIndefinite
Domain nameIndefinite
Software
5 to 7 years
Intellectual property
1 to 8 years
Customer lists (Canada Goose)10 years
Customer lists (Paola Confectii SRL)4 years
Distribution rights10 years
In connection with the acquisition of the business of Paola Confectii SRL during fiscal 2024 (See “Note 5. Business combinations” for more details), identifiable intangible assets acquired consist of the customer list and brand.
Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives consists of the Canada Goose, Baffin, and Paola Confectii SRL brand names, as well as the Canada Goose and Baffin domain names, which were acquired as part of an acquisition and were recorded at their estimated fair value. The brand names and domain name are considered to have an indefinite life based on a history of revenue and cash flow performance, and the intent and ability of the Company to support the brand with spending to maintain its value for the foreseeable future. The brand names and domain name are tested at least annually for impairment, at the cash-generating unit (“CGU”) level. The assessment of indefinite life is reviewed annually to determine whether the indefinite life assessment continues to be supportable. If not, the change in the useful life assessment from indefinite to finite is made on a prospective basis.
Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over the useful economic life on a straight-line basis. The amortization period and the amortization method for an intangible
F-16

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2024
(in millions of Canadian dollars, except share and per share data)
asset with a finite useful life are reviewed at least at the end of each reporting period. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset are considered to modify the amortization period or method, as appropriate, and treated as changes in accounting estimates. The amortization expense on intangible assets with finite lives is recognized in the statements of income over the asset’s estimated useful life.
An intangible asset is derecognized on disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use. Gains or losses arising from the derecognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are included in the statements of income when the asset is derecognized.
Intangible assets are reviewed at the end of each reporting period to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the asset is then tested for impairment by comparing its recoverable amount to its carrying value. Any resulting impairment loss is recorded in the statements of income.
(n)Leases
The Company recognizes a right-of-use asset and a lease liability based on the present value of the future lease payments at the commencement date. The commencement date is when the lessor makes the leased asset available for use by the Company, typically the possession date. The discount rate used in the present value calculation for lease payments is the incremental borrowing rate, if the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable, for each leased asset or portfolio of leased assets with similar characteristics by reference to the Company’s creditworthiness, the security, term and value of the underlying leased asset, and the economic environment in which the leased asset operates. The lease term is determined as the non-cancellable periods of a lease, together with periods covered by a renewal option if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise that option and a termination option if the Company is reasonably certain not to exercise that option.
Leases of low-value assets and short-term leases are not included in the calculation of lease liabilities. These lease expenses are recognized in cost of sales or SG&A expenses on a straight-line or other systematic basis.
    Lease liabilities
Lease liabilities are measured at the present value of future lease payments, discounted using the Company’s incremental borrowing rates, and include the fixed payments, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, less any lease incentives receivable. Subsequent to initial measurement, the Company measures lease liabilities at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. Lease liabilities are remeasured when there are changes to the lease payments, lease term, assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset, expected residual value guarantee, or future lease payments due to a change in the index or rate tied to the payment.
    Right-of-use assets
Right-of-use assets are measured at the initial amount of the lease liabilities, lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received, initial direct costs, if any, and decommissioning costs to restore the site to the
F-17

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2024
(in millions of Canadian dollars, except share and per share data)
condition required by the terms and conditions of the lease, and net of accumulated impairment losses. Subsequent to initial measurement, the Company applies the cost model to the right-of-use assets and measures the asset at cost less any accumulated depreciation, accumulated impairment losses in accordance with IAS 36, Impairment of Assets and any remeasurements of the lease liabilities. Assets are depreciated from the commencement date on a straight-line basis over the earlier of the end of the assets’ useful lives or the end of the lease terms.
Right-of-use assets are reviewed at the end of each reporting period to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the asset is then tested for impairment by comparing its recoverable amount to its carrying value. Impairment losses are recorded in the statements of income.
(o)Goodwill
Goodwill represents the difference between the purchase price of an acquired business and the Company’s share of the net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed and any contingent liabilities assumed. It is initially recorded at cost and subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses.
For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to CGUs based on the lowest level within the entity in which the goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes. The allocation is made to the CGUs that are expected to benefit from the business combination in which the goodwill arose. Any potential impairment of goodwill is identified by comparing the recoverable amount of a CGU to its carrying value. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of CGU exceeds its recoverable amount. Any loss identified is first applied to reduce the carrying amount of goodwill allocated to the CGU, and then to reduce the carrying amounts of the remaining assets in the CGU on a pro-rata basis. The Company tests goodwill for impairment annually at the reporting date.
The recoverable amount of a CGU is the higher of the estimated fair value less costs of disposal or value-in-use of the CGU. In assessing the recoverable amount, the estimated future cash flows are discounted using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.
The Company has determined that there are 12 CGUs, 11 for which goodwill contributes to the cash flows (April 2, 2023 - 11 CGUs, 10 for which goodwill contributed to the cash flows). The increase in CGUs from the comparative period is attributable to the Paola Confectii acquisition which represents an additional CGU. No other changes were made to the existing CGUs from the previous year. See “Note 5. Business combinations” for more details.

March 31, 2024
(in millions of Canadian dollars, except share and per share data)
(p)Provisions
Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present obligation, legal or constructive, as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Where the Company expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is recognized as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in the statements of income net of any reimbursement. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized in the statements of income.
The provision for warranty returns relates to the Company’s obligation for defective goods sold to customers that have yet to be returned for exchange or repair. Accruals for warranty returns are estimated on the basis of historical returns and are recorded so as to allocate them to the same period the corresponding revenue is recognized.
(q)Fair values
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:
•in the principal market for the asset or liability, or
•in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.
The Company uses valuation techniques that it believes are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs. All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:
Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.
Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3: unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs are used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.
For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Company determines classes of assets and liabilities on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the level of the fair value hierarchy as explained above.
F-19

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2024
(in millions of Canadian dollars, except share and per share data)
There was no change in the valuation techniques applied to financial instruments during all periods presented. The following table describes the valuation techniques used in the determination of the fair values of financial instruments:
Type
Valuation Approach
Cash, trade receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities
The carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short term maturity of these instruments.
Derivatives (included in other current assets, other long-term assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities or other long-term liabilities)

Specific valuation techniques used to value derivative financial instruments include:
- quoted market prices or dealer quotes for similar instruments;
- observable market information as well as valuations determined by external valuators with experience in the financial markets.
Revolving Facility, Term Loan, Mainland China Facilities, and Japan Facility
The fair value is based on the present value of contractual cash flows, discounted at the Company’s current incremental borrowing rate for similar types of borrowing arrangements or, where applicable, market rates.
Put option liability
The fair value is based on the present value of the amount expected to be paid to the non-controlling shareholder if the put option is exercised. Subsequent changes in the present value of the amount that could be required to be paid at each reporting date are recorded with the statements of income until the put option is exercised or expires.
Contingent considerationThe fair value of the applicable contingent consideration is determined based on the estimated financial outcome and the resulting expected contingent consideration to be paid, discounted using an appropriate rate. Subsequent changes in the fair value is recognized in the statements of income.
Earn-Out included in other long-term liabilities
The fair value is based on a pre-determined percentage of net equity value of Paola Confectii SRL, determined as a multiple of EBITDA and EBITDA margin for the fiscal year ending March 30, 2025, subject to a floor, less net debt adjustments. Subsequent changes in the fair value are recognized in the statements of income.
(r)Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issuance of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities classified at fair value through profit or loss) are added to, or deducted from, the fair value of the financial
F-20

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2024
(in millions of Canadian dollars, except share and per share data)
assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities classified at fair value through profit or loss are recognized immediately in profit or loss.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are measured subsequently as described below.
i)Non-derivative financial assets
Non-derivative financial assets include cash and trade receivables which are measured at amortized cost. The Company initially recognizes receivables and deposits on the date that they are originated. The Company derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows on the financial asset in a transaction in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred.
ii)Non-derivative financial liabilities
Non-derivative financial liabilities include accounts payable, accrued liabilities, the Revolving Facility (as defined below), the Term Loan (as defined below), the Mainland China Facilities (as defined below), and the Japan Facility (as defined below). The Company initially recognizes debt instruments on the date that they are originated. All other financial liabilities are recognized initially on the trade date on which the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial liabilities are recognized initially at fair value less any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, these financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. The Company derecognizes a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged or cancelled or expire.
In respect of non-controlling interests, a financial liability is recognized for the put option based on the present value of the amount expected to be paid to the non-controlling shareholder if exercised. Subsequently, the put option liability is adjusted to reflect changes in the present value of the amount that could be required to be paid at each reporting date, with fluctuations being recorded within the statements of income, until it is exercised or expires. The put option is measured at fair value through profit or loss.
iii)Derivative financial instruments
Derivatives are initially recognized at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured to their fair value at each reporting date. The method of recognizing the resulting gain or loss depends on whether the derivative is designated and effective as a hedging instrument. When a derivative financial instrument, including an embedded derivative, is not designated and effective in a qualifying hedge relationship, all changes in its fair value are recognized immediately in the statements of income; attributable transaction costs are recognized in the statements of income as incurred. The Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.
Embedded derivatives are separated from a host contract and accounted for separately if the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract and the embedded derivative are not closely related.
F-21

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2024
(in millions of Canadian dollars, except share and per share data)
iv)Hedge accounting
The Company is exposed to the risk of currency fluctuations and has entered into currency derivative contracts to hedge its exposure on the basis of planned transactions. Where hedge accounting is applied, the criteria are documented at the inception of the hedge and updated at each reporting date. The Company documents the relationship between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk management objectives and strategy for undertaking the hedging transactions. The Company also documents its assessment, at hedge inception and on an ongoing basis, of whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of hedged items.
The fair value of a hedging derivative is classified as a current asset or liability when the maturity of the hedged item is less than 12 months, and as a non-current asset or liability when the maturity of the hedged item is more than 12 months.
The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is recognized, net of tax, in other comprehensive income. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognized immediately in the statements of income. Amounts accumulated in other comprehensive income are transferred to the statements of income in the periods when the hedged item affects net income. When a forecasted transaction that is hedged results in the recognition of a non-financial asset or liability, such as inventory, the amounts are included in the measurement of the cost of the related asset or liability. The deferred amounts are ultimately recognized in the statements of income.
Hedges of net investments are accounted for similarly to cash flow hedges, with unrealized gains and losses recognized, net of tax, in other comprehensive income. Amounts included in other comprehensive income are transferred to the statements of income in the period when the foreign operation is disposed of or sold.
(s)Share-based payments
Share-based payments are valued based on the grant date fair value of these awards and the Company records compensation expense over the corresponding service period. The fair value of the share-based payments is determined using acceptable valuation techniques.
The Company has issued stock options to purchase subordinate voting shares, RSUs, and PSUs under its equity incentive plans, prior to the public offering on March 21, 2017 (the “Legacy Plan”) and subsequently (the “Omnibus Plan”). All Legacy Plan options have fully vested or been cancelled prior to the year ended March 31, 2024. Under the terms of the Omnibus Plan, options are granted to certain executives of the Company with vesting, generally over four years, contingent upon meeting the service conditions of the Omnibus Plan. The compensation expense related to the options, RSUs, and PSUs is recognized ratably over the requisite service period, provided it is probable that the
F-22

vesting conditions will be achieved and the occurrence of the exit event, if applicable, is probable.
Note 3.    Significant accounting judgments, estimates, and assumptions
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments in applying the Company’s accounting policies that affect the reported amounts and disclosures made in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.
Estimates and assumptions are used mainly in determining the measurement of balances recognized or disclosed in the consolidated financial statements and are based on a set of underlying data that may include management’s historical experience, knowledge of current events and conditions and other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Management continually evaluates the estimates and judgments it uses. These estimates and judgments have been applied in a manner consistent with prior periods and there are no known trends, commitments, events or uncertainties that we believe will materially affect the methodology or assumptions utilized in making these estimates and judgments in these financial statements.
The following are the accounting policies subject to judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty that the Company believes could have the most significant impact on the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements.
Functional currency
Judgments Made in Relation to Accounting Policies Applied: The Company assesses the relevant factors related to the primary economic environment in which its entities operate to determine the functional currency. Where the assessment of primary indicators is mixed, management assesses the secondary indicators, including the relationship between the foreign operations and reporting entity.
Income and other taxes
Key Sources of Estimation: In determining the recoverable amount of deferred tax assets, the Company forecasts future taxable income by legal entity and the period in which the income occurs to ensure that sufficient taxable income exists to utilize the attributes. Inputs to those projections are Board-approved financial forecasts and statutory tax rates.
Judgments Made in Relation to Accounting Policies Applied: The calculation of current and deferred income taxes requires management to make certain judgments regarding the tax rules in jurisdictions where the Company performs activities. Application of judgments is required regarding the classification of transactions and in assessing probable outcomes of claimed deductions including expectations about future operating results, the timing and reversal of temporary differences and possible audits of income tax and other tax filings by the tax authorities.
Trade receivables
Key Sources of Estimation: The Company has a significant number of customers which minimizes the concentration of credit risk. The Company does not have any customers which account for more than 10% of sales or accounts receivable. Ongoing estimates are made

(in millions of Canadian dollars, except share and per share data)
relating to the ability to collect our accounts receivable and maintain an allowance for estimated credit losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. In determining the amount of expected credit losses, the Company considers the historical level of credit losses and makes judgments about the creditworthiness of significant customers based on ongoing credit evaluations.
Inventories
Key Sources of Estimation: Inventories are carried at the lower of cost and net realizable value. In estimating net realizable value, the Company uses estimates related to fluctuations in inventory levels, planned production, customer behaviour, obsolescence, future selling prices, seasonality and costs necessary to sell the inventory. Inventory is adjusted to reflect shrinkage incurred since the last inventory count. Shrinkage is based on historical experience.
Leases
Judgments Made in Relation to Accounting Policies Applied: The Company exercises judgment when contracts are entered into that may give rise to a right-of-use asset that would be accounted for as a lease. Judgment is required in determining the appropriate lease term on a lease by lease basis. The Company considers all facts and circumstances that create an economic incentive to exercise a renewal option or to not exercise a termination option at inception and over the term of the lease, including investments in major leaseholds, operating performance, and changed circumstances. The periods covered by renewal or termination options are only included in the lease term if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise that option. Changes in the economic environment or changes in the retail industry may impact the assessment of the lease term and any changes in the estimate of lease terms may have a material impact on the Company’s statement of financial position.
Key Sources of Estimation: The critical assumptions and estimates used in determining the present value of future lease payments require the Company to estimate the incremental borrowing rate specific to each leased asset or portfolio of leased assets. Management determines the incremental borrowing rate of each leased asset or portfolio of leased assets by incorporating the Company’s creditworthiness, the security, term, and value of the underlying leased asset, and the economic environment in which the leased asset operates. The incremental borrowing rates are subject to change mainly due to macroeconomic changes in the environment.
Impairment of non-financial assets (goodwill, intangible assets, property, plant & equipment, and right-of-use assets)
Judgments Made in Relation to Accounting Policies Applied: Management is required to use judgment in determining the grouping of assets to identify their CGUs for the purposes of testing non-financial assets for impairment. Judgment is further required to determine appropriate groupings of CGUs for the level at which goodwill and intangible assets are tested for impairment. For the purpose of goodwill and intangible assets impairment testing, CGUs are grouped at the lowest level at which goodwill and intangible assets are monitored for internal management purposes. Judgment is also applied in allocating the carrying amount of assets to CGUs. In addition, judgment is used to determine whether a triggering event has occurred requiring an impairment test to be completed. The Company has concluded that it has 12 CGUs (April 2, 2023 - 11 CGUs) and tests impairment of non-financial assets on that basis.
F-24

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2024
(in millions of Canadian dollars, except share and per share data)
Key Sources of Estimation: In determining the recoverable amount of a CGU or a group of CGUs, various estimates are employed. The Company determines value-in-use by using estimates including projected future revenues, margins, costs, and capital investment consistent with strategic plans presented to the Board of Directors. Fair value less costs of disposal are estimated with reference to observable market transactions. Discount rates are consistent with external industry information reflecting the risk associated with the Company and its cash flows.
Warranty
Key Sources of Estimation: The critical assumptions and estimates used in determining the warranty provision at the statement of financial position date are: the number of jackets expected to require repair or replacement; the proportion to be repaired versus replaced; the period in which the warranty claim is expected to occur; the cost to repair a jacket; the cost to replace a jacket, and the risk-free rate used to discount the provision to present value.
Financial instruments
Key Sources of Estimation: The critical assumptions and estimates used in determining the fair value of financial instruments are: equity prices; future interest rates; the relative creditworthiness of the Company to its counterparties; estimated future cash flows; discount rates, and volatility utilized in option valuations.
Share-based payments
Key Sources of Estimation: Compensation expense for share-based compensation granted is measured at the fair value at the grant date using the Black Scholes option pricing model for the year ended March 31, 2024. The critical assumptions used under both of these option valuation models at the grant date are: stock price valuation; exercise price; risk-free interest rate; expected time to exercise in years; expected dividend yield, and volatility.
Consolidation
Judgments Made in Relation to Accounting Policies Applied: The Company uses judgment in determining the entities that it controls and therefore consolidates. The Company controls an entity when the Company has the existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the activities that significantly affect the entity’s returns. Judgment is applied in determining whether the Company controls the entities in which it does not have full ownership rights. Most often, judgment involves reviewing contractual rights to determine if rights are participating (giving power over the entity) or protective rights (protecting the Company’s interest without giving it power).

Note 4.    Changes in accounting policies
Standards issued and not yet adopted
Certain new standards, amendments, and interpretations to existing IFRS standards have been published but are not yet effective and have not been adopted early by the Company. Management anticipates that pronouncements will be adopted in the Company’s accounting policy for the first period beginning after the effective date of the pronouncement. Information on new standards, amendments, and interpretations is provided below.
In January 2020, the IASB issued an amendment to IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements (“IAS 1”) to clarify its requirements for the presentation of liabilities in the statement of financial position. The limited scope amendment affected only the presentation of liabilities in the statement of financial position and not the amount or timing of its recognition. The amendment clarified that the classification of liabilities as current or non-current is based on rights that are in existence at the end of the reporting period and specified that classification is unaffected by expectations about whether an entity will exercise its right to defer settlement of a liability. It also introduced a definition of ‘settlement’ to make clear that settlement refers to the transfer to the counterparty of cash, equity instruments, other assets or services. On October 31, 2022, the IASB issued Non-Current Liabilities with Covenants (Amendments to IAS 1). These amendments specify that covenants to be complied with after the reporting date do not affect the classification of debt as current or non-current at the reporting date. The amendment is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024. Earlier application is permitted, however the Company has elected not to early adopt this amendment. The Company has performed an initial assessment on the impact of the amendment and the Company expects that adoption will result in a reclassification of the non-current portion of warranty provisions to be reported as current in nature, based on the terms and conditions of the Company’s warranty program. The impact is expected to be material in the consolidated statements of financial position.
Standards issued and adopted
In February 2021, the IASB issued narrow-scope amendments to IAS 1, IFRS Practice Statement 2, Making Materiality Judgements and IAS 8, Accounting Polices, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors. The amendments require the disclosure of material accounting policy information rather than disclosing significant accounting policies and clarified how to distinguish changes in accounting policies from changes in accounting estimates. Beginning April 3, 2023, the Company adopted the amendments. The adoption of the amendments did not have a material impact on the Annual Financial Statements.
In May 2023, the IASB issued International Tax Reform, Pillar Two Model Rules, Amendments to IAS 12, Income Taxes (the “Amendments”). The Amendments provide the Company with an exception from recognition and disclosure requirements for deferred tax assets and liabilities arising from the OECD Pillar Two international tax reform. The mandatory temporary exception has been adopted by the Company.

Note 5.    Business combinations
Transactions during the year ended March 31, 2024
On November 1, 2023, a newly incorporated subsidiary of the Company, Paola Confectii Manufacturing Limited (“Paola Confectii”), acquired the business of Paola Confectii SRL, a luxury knitwear manufacturer for total cash consideration of $15.9m. This acquisition is expected to enhance product margins and supply control, while deepening in-house product expertise and capability.
The aggregate purchase consideration for the business combination is as follows:
$
Cash16.4
Working capital adjustments(0.5)
Total purchase consideration15.9
Management determined that the assets and substantive processes comprised a business and therefore accounted for the transaction as a business combination under IFRS 3, Business Combinations using the acquisition method of accounting. Under the acquisition method, assets and liabilities of the acquiree are recorded at their fair values.
Assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been recorded at the date of acquisition as follows:
$
Assets acquired
Trade receivables7.2
Inventories1.6
Prepaid expenses0.1
Property, plant and equipment2.6
Intangible assets
Customer list3.5
Brand1.0
Right-of-use assets1.2
Goodwill8.3
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities(8.4)
Lease liability(1.2)
Total assets acquired, net of liabilities assumed15.9
The determination of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is based on estimates and certain assumptions with respect to the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed that were finalized as at the reporting date, within one year of the acquisition.
Goodwill of $8.3m was recognized as the excess of the acquisition cost over the fair value of net identifiable assets at the date of acquisition. Goodwill is mainly attributable to the strengthening of our vertically integrated supply chain and expected future growth potential of the knitwear category. Goodwill recognized is not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.
F-27

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2024
(in millions of Canadian dollars, except share and per share data)
Identifiable intangible assets acquired consist of the customer list and brand. The fair value of the customer list was $3.5m, measured using the multi-period excess earnings method, which will be amortized over a 4-year period on a straight-line basis. The fair value of the brand was $1.0m, measured using the relief-from-royalty method.
In connection with the business combination, subject to the controlling shareholders of Paola Confectii SRL ("PCML Vendors") remaining employees through November 1, 2025, a further amount is payable to the PCML Vendors if certain performance conditions are met based on financial results (“Earn-Out”). The estimated value is calculated as a pre-determined percentage of net equity value, determined as a multiple of EBITDA and EBITDA margin for the fiscal year ending March 30, 2025, subject to a floor, less net debt adjustments. As at the reporting date, the estimated value of the payout was $7.4m. The Company recognized the amount payable to the PCML Vendors as a separate transaction that was not included in applying the acquisition method as the amount reflects remuneration for future services to be performed conditional on employment until November 1, 2025, and therefore this amount will be expensed over two years.
The Company incurred $0.8m in transaction related costs which are included in SG&A expenses in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income for the year ended March 31, 2024.
Paola Confectii’s results are consolidated into the Company’s financial results effective from the date of acquisition and are presented in the Company’s Other operating segment. The results of Paola Confectii were not significant for the period beginning on the date of acquisition and ended on March 31, 2024 and would not have been either during fiscal 2024 if the acquisition had occurred as of the beginning of the fiscal year.
The PCML Vendors are employed as members of key management and continue to lead and maintain regular operations at Paola Confectii. The Earn-Out to the PCML Vendors and transactions with one of the PCML Vendors in connection with the acquisition for the lease of the manufacturing facility are related party transactions as they have been retained as employees of the Company. See “Note 20. Related Party Transactions” for more details.
Transactions during the year ended April 2, 2023
The Company and a former distributor of the Company's products in Japan, Sazaby League, Ltd. ("Sazaby League"), entered into an agreement (the "Joint Venture Agreement") to form a joint venture (the “Japan Joint Venture”) pursuant to which the Company acquired 50% of the issued and outstanding voting shares of the legal entity comprising the joint venture, Canada Goose Japan, K.K. (“CG Japan”), on April 4, 2022. CG Japan was established to market, distribute and sell Canada Goose products, and to operate retail stores and e-Commerce in Japan.
Prior to the establishment of CG Japan, the Company sold its products to Sazaby League. The majority of sales historically occurred in the first and second quarters and were recorded in the Wholesale operating segment. Subsequent to the transaction, the Company has consolidated the results of CG Japan and revenue and results of operations will be aligned to the respective operating segments and are expected to occur more in line with the seasonality of the Company's Wholesale and DTC segments.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2024
(in millions of Canadian dollars, except share and per share data)
Management performed an analysis under IFRS 10, Consolidated Financial Statements and since the Company has the power to direct the relevant activities of CG Japan, is exposed to variable returns, and can use its power to influence those returns, management determined that the Company has control over CG Japan for accounting purposes. In addition, management performed an analysis under IFRS 3, Business Combinations and has determined that the Company is the acquirer of CG Japan. Management determined that the assets and processes acquired comprised a business and therefore, accounted for the transaction as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting. Under the acquisition method, assets and liabilities of the acquiree are recorded at their fair values.
The Company paid cash consideration to CG Japan of JPY250.0m ($2.6m) plus deferred contingent consideration to the non-controlling shareholder with an estimated fair value of JPY1,958.9m ($20.0m) resulting in total consideration of JPY2,208.9m ($22.6m). The deferred contingent consideration is payable if an agreed cumulative adjusted EBIT target is not reached through the period ended June 30, 2026. The fair value of the applicable contingent consideration is determined based on the estimated financial outcome and the resulting expected contingent consideration to be paid, discounted using an appropriate rate. As at April 4, 2022, the contingent consideration amount was recorded in other long-term liabilities. The amount of contingent consideration is remeasured at its fair value each reporting period, with changes in fair value recorded in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.
The Company incurred $1.3m in transaction related costs which are included in SG&A expenses in the consolidated statements of income and consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the year ended April 2, 2023. For the year ended April 3, 2022, the Company incurred $0.7m in transaction related costs.

The determination of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is based on estimates and certain assumptions with respect to the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed that were finalized as at April 2, 2023, within one year of the acquisition.
Goodwill is calculated as the difference between total consideration and the fair value of the net assets acquired and is attributable to expected synergies between CG Japan and the Company’s existing operations. Goodwill of $10.8m was recognized as the excess of the acquisition cost over the fair value of net identifiable assets at the date of acquisition. Goodwill recognized is not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. Intangible assets of $14.9m relate to the fair value of the customer list and reacquired distribution rights of the Japan market, which will be amortized over a 10-year period.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2024
(in millions of Canadian dollars, except share and per share data)
The fair value of property, plant and equipment and right-of-use assets was based on management’s assessment of the acquired assets’ condition, as well as an evaluation of the current market value for such assets. In addition, the Company considered the length of time over which the economic benefit of these assets is expected to be realized and estimated the useful life of such assets as of the acquisition date. The fair value of inventories has been measured at net realizable value, less cost to sell.
CG Japan’s results are consolidated into the Company’s financial results effective April 4, 2022. For the year ended April 2, 2023, CG Japan contributed approximately $54.0m to the Company’s consolidated revenue and $1.0m to the Company’s operating income.
In connection with the business combination, the Joint Venture Agreement includes a put option that allows the non-controlling shareholder to sell its 50% interest to the Company within six months after certain circumstances constituting a "put option trigger" event occur. If the put option is not exercised during such six-month period, the put option will expire. The Company established a financial liability for the put option in respect of non-controlling interests. The fair value of the put option is classified as Level 3 within IFRS 13, Fair value measurement. As at April 4, 2022, the fair value of the put option held in Japanese yen by the non-controlling shareholder was recorded in other long-term liabilities in the amount of JPY2,076.4m ($21.2m).
The Company recorded the put option liability based on the present value of the amount expected to be paid to the non-controlling shareholder if exercised. Subsequently, the put option liability is adjusted to reflect changes in the present value of the amount that could be required to be paid at each reporting date, with fluctuations being recorded within the Company's consolidated statements of income, until it is exercised or expires.
Note 6.    Segment information
The Company has three reportable operating segments: DTC, Wholesale, and Other. The Company measures each reportable operating segment’s performance based on revenue and segment operating income (loss), which is the profit metric utilized by the Company’s chief operating decision maker, the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, for assessing the performance of operating segments. No single customer contributed 10 per cent or more to the Company’s revenue for the years ended March 31, 2024, April 2, 2023, and April 3, 2022.
As at March 31, 2024, the performance measure for our Other segment was revised to exclude corporate general and administrative expenses; these expenses are now presented as a reconciling item to the Company’s consolidated operating income. This change in segment reporting was made to improve the understanding of financial performance in the Other segment.
Corporate expenses comprises costs that do not occur through the DTC, Wholesale, or Other segments, including the cost of marketing expenditures to build brand awareness across all segments, management overhead costs in support of manufacturing operations, other corporate

The Company has determined there to be 11 CGUs (April 2, 2023 - 10 CGUs) for which goodwill and indefinite life intangible assets are tested for impairment. The increase in CGUs from the comparative period is attributable to the recognition of goodwill from the Paola Confectii business combination which represents an additional CGU. No other changes were made to the existing CGUs from the previous year. The Company completed its annual impairment tests and concluded that there was no impairment in the years ended March 31, 2024 and April 2, 2023.

2Goodwill for the Japan Joint Venture is JPY1,059.3m; year-over-year movement in the balance in Canadian Dollars is due to the impact of foreign exchange translation from JPY to CAD of $1.4m.
Key Assumptions
The key assumptions used to calculate the VIU are those regarding discount rate, revenue and gross margin growth rates, sales channel mix, and growth in SG&A expenses. These assumptions are considered to be Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The goodwill impairment tests resulted in excess of recoverable value over carrying value of at least 23.5% for each CGU. Because the VIU amount exceeds the CGUs’ asset carrying amount, the CGU is not impaired and the fair value less costs of disposition has not been calculated.

Cash flow projections were discounted using the Company’s weighted average cost of capital, determined to be 12.80% (April 2, 2023 - 12.67%) based on a risk-free rate, an equity risk premium adjusted for betas of comparable publicly traded companies, an unsystematic risk premium, country risk premium, specific risk premium, a cost of debt based on comparable corporate bond yields and the capital structure of the Company. Cash flow projections are based on management’s most recent forecasts over a five year period. A long term growth rate of 2% has been applied to cash flows beyond the forecasted period.

Note 16.    Provisions
Provisions consist primarily of amounts recorded with respect to customer warranty obligations, sales returns, and asset retirement obligations.
The provision for warranty claims represents the present value of management’s best estimate of the future outflow of economic resources that will be required to meet the Company’s obligations for warranties upon the sale of goods, which may include repair or replacement of previously sold products. The estimate has been made on the basis of historical warranty trends and may vary as a result of new materials, altered manufacturing processes, customer behaviour and expectations, or other events affecting product quality and production.
The sales contract provision relates to management’s estimated cost of the departure of certain third-party dealers and distributors.
Sales returns relate primarily to goods sold through the DTC segment which have a limited right of return (typically within 30 days), or exchange only, in certain jurisdictions.
Asset retirement obligations relate to legal obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets, primarily for leasehold improvements that the Company is contractually obligated to remove at the end of the lease term. The Company recognizes the liability when such obligations are incurred. The fair value of the liability is estimated based on a number of assumptions requiring management’s judgment, including closing costs and inflation rates, and is accreted to its projected future value over time.

Note 17.    Borrowings
Amendments to borrowings
Effective June 30, 2023, LIBOR rates are no longer published for U.S Dollars. As a result, in the first quarter ended July 2, 2023, the Company transitioned facilities and contracts denominated in U.S dollars applying LIBOR to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (“SOFR”). At this time, the Company entered into further amendments to its Revolving Facility (as defined below), Term Loan Facility (as defined below) and the interest rate swaps to transition to SOFR. In connection with the amendments, during the first quarter ended July 2, 2023, the Company also extended the maturity of the Revolving Facility to May 15, 2028 and incurred transaction costs of $0.7m, on the extension of the Revolving Facility, which are being amortized using the effective interest rate method over the new term to maturity. There were no further amendments to borrowings in the year ended March 31, 2024.
See "Note 22. Financial risk management objectives and policies" for more details on the amendments to the interest rate swaps.
Revolving Facility
The Company has an agreement with a syndicate of lenders for a senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility ("Revolving Facility") in the amount of $467.5m, with an increase in
F-47

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2024
(in millions of Canadian dollars, except share and per share data)
commitments to $517.5m during the peak season (June 1 - November 30). The Revolving Facility matures on May 15, 2028. Amounts owing under the Revolving Facility may be borrowed, repaid and re-borrowed for general corporate purposes. The Company has pledged substantially all of its assets as collateral for the Revolving Facility. The Revolving Facility contains financial and non-financial covenants which could impact the Company’s ability to draw funds.
The Revolving Facility has multiple interest rate charge options that are based on the Canadian prime rate, Banker's Acceptance rate, the lenders' Alternate Base Rate, European Base Rate, SOFR rate, or EURIBOR rate plus an applicable margin, with interest payable the earlier of quarterly or at the end of the then current interest period (whichever is earlier).
As at March 31, 2024, the Company had repaid all amounts owing on the Revolving Facility (April 2, 2023 - $nil). As at March 31, 2024, no interest and administrative fees remain outstanding (April 2, 2023 - $nil). Deferred financing charges in the amounts of $1.0m (April 2, 2023 - $0.5m), were included in other long-term liabilities. As at and during the year ended March 31, 2024, the Company was in compliance with all covenants.
The Company had unused borrowing capacity available under the Revolving Facility of $203.7m as at March 31, 2024 (April 2, 2023 - $238.4m).
The revolving credit commitment also includes a letter of credit commitment in the amount of $25.0m, with a $5.0m sub-commitment for letters of credit issued in a currency other than Canadian dollars, U.S. dollars, euros or British pounds sterling, and a swingline commitment for $25.0m. As at March 31, 2024, the Company had letters of credit outstanding under the Revolving Facility of $1.5m (April 2, 2023 - $1.8m).
Term Loan
The Company has a senior secured loan agreement with a syndicate of lenders that is secured on a split collateral basis ("Term Loan") alongside the Revolving Facility. The Term Loan has an aggregate principal amount of USD300.0m, with quarterly repayments of USD0.75m on the principal amount and a maturity date of October 7, 2027. Moreover, the Term Loan has an interest rate of SOFR plus a term SOFR adjustment of 0.11448% with an applicable margin of 3.50% payable monthly in arrears. SOFR plus the term SOFR adjustment may not be less than 0.75%.
Voluntary prepayments of amounts owing under the Term Loan may be made at any time without premium or penalty but once repaid may not be reborrowed. As at March 31, 2024, the Company had USD290.3m (April 2, 2023 - USD293.3m) aggregate principal amount outstanding under the Term Loan. The Company has pledged substantially all of its assets as collateral for the Term Loan. The Term Loan contains financial and non-financial covenants which could impact the Company’s ability to draw funds. As at and during the year ended March 31, 2024, the Company was in compliance with all covenants.
As the Term Loan is denominated in U.S. dollars, the Company remeasures the outstanding balance plus accrued interest at each balance sheet date.

In connection with the Japan Joint Venture, for the year ended March 31, 2024, the Company recorded an increase of JPY327.0m ($0.9m, excluding translation losses of $1.9m) on the remeasurement of the contingent consideration. The Company recorded an increase of JPY129.3m (a decrease of $2.7m, excluding translation losses of $4.3m) on the remeasurement of the put option liability during the year ended March 31, 2024. The change in fair values of the contingent consideration and put option liability were driven by updated cash flow forecasts, progression through the 4-year and 10-year terms, respectively, and lower cost of equity in the market.
For the year ended April 2, 2023, the Company recorded a decrease of JPY301.2m ($3.2m, excluding translation losses of $0.3m) on the remeasurement of the contingent consideration. The Company recorded an increase of JPY1,079.9m ($10.9m, excluding translation gains of less than $0.1m) on the remeasurement of the put option liability during the year ended April 2, 2023.

Note 22.    Financial risk management objectives and policies
The Company’s primary risk management objective is to protect the Company’s assets and cash flow, in order to increase the Company’s enterprise value.
The Company is exposed to capital management risk, liquidity risk, credit risk, market risk, foreign exchange risk, and interest rate risk. The Company’s senior management and Board of Directors oversee the management of these risks. The Board of Directors reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks which are summarized below.
Capital management
The Company manages its capital and capital structure with the objectives of safeguarding sufficient working capital over the annual operating cycle and providing sufficient financial resources to grow operations to meet long-term consumer demand. The Board of Directors of the Company monitors the Company’s capital management on a regular basis. The Company will continually assess the adequacy of the Company’s capital structure and capacity and make adjustments within the context of the Company’s strategy, economic conditions, and risk characteristics of the business.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to satisfy the requirements for business operations, capital expenditures, debt service and general corporate purposes, under normal and stressed conditions. The primary source of liquidity is funds generated by operating activities; the Company also relies on the Revolving Facility, the Mainland China Facilities, and Japan Facility as sources of funds for short term working capital needs. The Company continuously reviews both actual and forecasted cash flows to ensure that the Company has appropriate capital capacity.
The following table summarizes the amount of contractual undiscounted future cash flow requirements as at March 31, 2024:

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2024
(in millions of Canadian dollars, except share and per share data)
These liabilities have not been included in the table above as the timing and amount of future payments are uncertain.
Letter of guarantee facility
On April 14, 2020, Canada Goose Inc. entered into a letter of guarantee facility in the amount of $10.0m. Within the facility, letters of guarantee are available for terms of up to 12 months from the date of issuance and will be charged a fee equal to 1.0% per annum calculated against the face amount and over the term of the guarantee. Amounts issued on the facility will be used to finance working capital requirements through letters of guarantee, standby letters of credit, performance bonds, counter guarantees, counter standby letters of credit, or similar credits. The Company immediately reimburses the issuing bank for amounts drawn on issued letters of guarantees. At March 31, 2024, the Company had $7.4m outstanding.
In addition, a subsidiary of the Company in Mainland China entered into letters of guarantee and as at March 31, 2024 the amount outstanding was $9.1m. Amounts will be used to support retail operations of such subsidiaries through letters of guarantee, standby letters of credit, performance bonds, counter guarantees, counter standby letters of credit, or similar credits.
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss.
Credit risk arises from the possibility that certain parties will be unable to discharge their obligations. The Company manages its credit risk through a combination of third party credit insurance and internal house risk. Credit insurance is provided by a third party for customers and is subject to continuous monitoring of the credit worthiness of the Company's customers. Insurance covers a specific amount of revenue, which may be less than the Company's total revenue with a specific customer. The Company has an agreement with a third party who has insured the risk of loss for up to 90% of trade accounts receivable from certain designated customers subject to a total deductible of $0.1m, to a maximum of $30.0m per year. As at March 31, 2024, trade accounts receivable totaling approximately $14.8m (April 2, 2023 - $10.3m) were insured subject to the policy cap. Complementary to the third party insurance, the Company establishes payment terms with customers to mitigate credit risk and continues to closely monitor its trade accounts receivable credit risk exposure.
Within CG Japan, the Company has an agreement with a third party who has insured the risk of trade accounts receivable for certain designated customers for a maximum of JPY540.0m per annum subject to a deductible of 10% and applicable only to accounts with receivables over JPY100k. As at March 31, 2024, trade accounts receivable totalling approximately $0.3m (JPY32.5m) were insured subject to the policy cap (April 2, 2023 - $0.7m (JPY72.8m)).
Customer deposits are received in advance from certain customers for seasonal orders to further mitigate credit risk, and applied to reduce accounts receivable when goods are shipped. As at March 31, 2024, customer deposits of $22.9m (April 2, 2023 - $0.2m) were included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

Trade accounts receivable factoring program
A subsidiary of the Company in Europe has an agreement to factor, on a limited recourse basis, certain of its trade accounts receivable up to a limit of EUR20.0m in exchange for advanced funding equal to 100% of the principal value of the invoice. Accepted currencies include euros, British pounds sterling, and Swiss francs. The Company is charged a fee of the applicable sterling overnight index average reference rate plus 1.15% per annum, based on the number of days between the purchase date and the invoice due date, which is lower than the Company’s average borrowing rate under its Revolving Facility. The program is utilized to provide sufficient liquidity to support its international operating cash needs. Upon transfer of the receivables, the Company receives cash proceeds and continues to service the receivables on behalf of the third-party financial institution. The program meets the derecognition requirements in accordance with IFRS 9, Financial Instruments as the Company transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership upon the sale of a receivable. These proceeds are classified as cash flows from operating activities in the statement of cash flows.
For the year ended March 31, 2024, the Company received total cash proceeds from the sale of trade accounts receivable with carrying values of $46.3m which were derecognized from the Company's statement of financial position (April 2, 2023 - $45.7m). Fees of $0.4m were incurred during the year ended March 31, 2024 (April 2, 2023 - $0.3m) and included in net interest, finance and other costs in the statements of income. As at March 31, 2024, the outstanding amount of trade accounts receivable derecognized from the Company’s statement of financial position, but which the Company continued to service was $0.6m (April 2, 2023 - $1.1m). Subsequent to the year ended March 31, 2024, the Company has terminated its factoring program.
Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market prices comprise foreign exchange risk and interest rate risk.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2024
(in millions of Canadian dollars, except share and per share data)
Foreign exchange risk
Foreign exchange risk in operating cash flows
The Company’s consolidated financial statements are expressed in Canadian dollars, but a substantial portion of the Company’s revenues, purchases, and expenses are denominated in other currencies, primarily U.S. dollars, euros, British pounds sterling, Swiss francs, Chinese yuan, Hong Kong dollars and Japanese yen. The Company has entered into forward foreign exchange contracts to reduce the foreign exchange risk associated with revenues, purchases, and expenses denominated in these currencies. Certain forward foreign exchange contracts were designated at inception and accounted for as cash flow hedges.
Revenues and expenses of all foreign operations are translated into Canadian dollars at the foreign currency exchange rates that approximate the rates in effect at the dates when such items are recognized. As a result, we are exposed to foreign currency translation gains and losses. Appreciating foreign currencies relative to the Canadian dollar, to the extent they are not hedged, will positively impact operating income and net income by increasing our revenue, while depreciating foreign currencies relative to the Canadian dollar will have the opposite impact.

Foreign exchange risk on borrowings
The Company enters into derivative transactions to hedge a portion of its exposure to interest rate risk and foreign currency exchange risk related to principal and interest payments on the Term Loan denominated in U.S. dollars (see “Note 17. Borrowings”). The Company also entered into a five-year forward exchange contract by selling $368.5m and receiving USD270.0m as measured on the trade date, to fix the foreign exchange risk on a portion of the term loan borrowings.

During the year ended March 31, 2024, an unrealized loss of $1.3m (April 2, 2023 - unrealized gain of $17.5m, April 3, 2022 - unrealized loss of $4.6m) in the fair value of the long-dated forward exchange contract related to a portion of the Term Loan balance has been recognized in net interest, finance and other costs in the consolidated statements of income.
Interest rate risk
The Company is exposed to interest rate risk related to the effect of interest rate changes on the borrowings outstanding under the Japan Facility, and the Term Loan, which currently bear interest rates at 0.45%, and 8.94%, respectively.
Interest rate risk on the Term Loan is partially mitigated by interest rate swap hedges. The Company entered into five-year interest rate swaps agreements terminating December 31, 2025 to pay fixing interest rate and receiving floating interest rates on notional debt of USD270.0m. Effective June 30, 2023, the floating interest benchmark reference rate contained within the swap agreements were amended from LIBOR to SOFR and the average fixed rates were reduced from 1.97% to 1.76%. These swap agreements fix the interest rate on the USD300.0m Term Loan. Following the amendment, the interest rate swaps continue to be designated and accounted for as cash flow hedges.
Based on the closing balance of outstanding borrowings, a 1.00% increase in the closing interest rate during the year ended March 31, 2024 would have increased interest expense on the Japan Facility and the Term Loan before hedging by $0.1m and $3.9m, respectively (April 2, 2023 - $0.3m, and $3.9m, respectively).
Until the third quarter ended December 31, 2023, the Company calculated interest rate sensitivity on debt facilities using the average balance of the facility and average interest rate in the reporting period. Following the third quarter, and applicable for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended March 31, 2024, the Company calculated interest rate sensitivity on debt facilities using the closing balance of the facility and the closing interest rate. The Company believes this change provides more relevant information on interest rate sensitivity. The Company has recognized this change as a change in estimates and had adjusted the disclosure prospectively.
