REPORT OF THE REVISEUR D'ENTREPRISES AGREE

Report on the annual accounts

We have audited the accompanying annual accounts of Samsonite International S.A., which comprise the balance sheet as at December 31, 2013 and the profit and loss account for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Board of Directors’ responsibility for the annual accounts

The Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these annual accounts in accordance with Luxembourg legal and regulatory requirements relating to the preparation of the annual accounts, and for such internal control as the Board of Directors determines is necessary to enable the preparation of annual accounts that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Responsibility of the Réviseur d'Entreprises agréé

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these annual accounts based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing as adopted for Luxembourg by the Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the annual accounts are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the annual accounts. The procedures selected depend on the judgement of the Réviseur d'Entreprises agréé, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the annual accounts, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the Réviseur d'Entreprises agréé considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the annual accounts in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the Board of Directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the annual accounts.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, the annual accounts give a true and fair view of the financial position of Samsonite International S.A. as of December 31, 2013, and of the results of its operations for the year then ended, in accordance with Luxembourg legal and regulatory requirements relating to the preparation of the annual accounts.

Notes to the annual accounts

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

2.1 Basis of presentation

The annual accounts have been prepared in accordance with Luxembourg legal and regulatory requirements under the going concern assumption and the historical cost convention.

The annual accounts have been prepared in accordance with legal and regulatory requirements and generally accepted accounting principles in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. Accounting policies and valuation principles are, besides the ones laid down by the law of December 19, 2012, determined and applied by the Board of Directors. According to the article 4 of the law of June 30, 2013, the Board of Directors has decided not to apply the provisions of that law for the preparation of these annual accounts.

The preparation of annual accounts requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires the Board of Directors to exercise its judgment in the process of applying the accounting policies. Changes in assumptions may have a significant impact on the annual accounts in the period in which the assumptions changed. The Board of Directors believes that the underlying assumptions are appropriate and that the annual accounts therefore present the financial position and its results fairly.

The books and records are maintained in US dollar (USD) and the annual accounts have been prepared in accordance with the valuation rules and accounting policies described below.

2.2 Basis of conversion for items originally expressed in foreign currency

Transactions expressed in currencies other than USD are translated into USD at the exchange rate effective at the time of the transaction.

Other assets and liabilities are valued individually at the lower, respectively the higher of their value at the historical exchange rate or their value determined at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date. Only unrealized exchange losses are recorded in the profit and loss account. Realized exchange gains are recorded in the profit and loss account at the moment of their realization.

Cash at bank is translated at the exchange rate effective at the balance sheet date. Exchange losses and gains are recorded in the profit and loss account of the year.

2.3 Financial fixed assets

Shares in affiliated undertakings and amounts owed by these affiliated undertakings held as fixed assets are valued at purchase price.

In case of durable depreciation in value according to the opinion of the Board of Directors, value adjustments are made in respect of fixed assets, so that they are valued at the lower figure to be attributed to them at the balance sheet date. These value adjustments are not continued if the reasons for which the value adjustments were made ceased to apply.

Notes to the annual accounts

2.4 Debtors

Debtors are valued at their nominal value. They are subject to value adjustments where their recoverability is compromised. These value adjustments are not continued if the reasons for which the value adjustments were made ceased to apply.

2.5 Provisions

Provisions are intended to cover losses or debts, the nature of which is clearly defined and which, at the date of balance sheet, are either likely to be incurred or certain to be incurred but uncertain as their amount or the date on which they will arise.

Provisions for taxation correspond to the tax liability estimated by the Company for the financial years for which the tax return has not yet been filed. The advance payments are shown in the assets of the balance sheet under the “Other receivables” Item.

2.6 Non subordinated debts

Non subordinated debts are recorded at their reimbursement value. Where the amount repayable on account is greater than the amount received, the difference is shown as an asset and is written off over the period of the debt based on a linear method.
