J. Jill is expanding into retail space which results in additional capital expenditures to construct the interiors of the companys retail
space. From J. Jills annual report management estimates that the company spends approximately $1 million dollars decorating each store
to its uniform design. These cash flows can be observed by recognizing the cash used by property and equipment investing activities
section of the cash flow statement. We can also0 observe increasing depreciation charges, which is consistent with larger amounts of
property and equipment.
As sales have increased so has its need for working capital, it is important to ensure that the company has adequate controls over its
working capital.
J. Jill is experiencing a net growth in current operating liabilities (as can be noted in the operating activities section of the cash flow
statement). This attributable to expansion into retail space as rental commitments and other store opening costs are accrued for.
Cash flows from operations are beginning to be exceed cash required by investing activities, but only because of the net change in current
operating liabilities. Income is also increasing as well as working capital from operations.
J. Jill is still issuing equity (but to a lesser degree than in 2004 and 2003) and paying down debt.
