Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

(unaudited)

Note 1.     The Company

Organization

Canada Goose Holdings Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) design, manufacture, and sell performance luxury apparel for men, women, youth, children, and babies. The Company’s apparel collections include various styles of parkas, lightweight down jackets, rainwear, windwear, knitwear, footwear, and accessories for the fall, winter, and spring seasons. The Company’s head office is located at 250 Bowie Avenue, Toronto, Canada M6E 4Y2. The use of the terms “Canada Goose”, “we”, “us”, and “our” throughout these notes to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements ("Interim Financial Statements") refer to the Company.

Canada Goose is a public company listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange and the New York Stock Exchange under the trading symbol “GOOS”. The principal shareholders of the Company are investment funds advised by Bain Capital LP and its affiliates (“Bain Capital”), and DTR LLC ("DTR"), an entity indirectly controlled by the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The principal shareholders hold multiple voting shares representing 46.3% of the total shares outstanding as at December 27, 2020, or 89.6% of the combined voting power of the total voting shares outstanding. Subordinate voting shares that trade on public markets represent 53.7% of the total shares outstanding as at December 27, 2020, or 10.4% of the combined voting power of the total voting shares outstanding.

Statement of compliance

The Interim Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). These Interim Financial Statements do not include all of the information required for annual financial statements. Certain information, which is considered material to the understanding of the Interim Financial Statements and is normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the IASB, is provided in these notes. These Interim Financial Statements have been prepared using the accounting policies described in note 2 to the Company's March 29, 2020 annual consolidated financial statements, which should be read in conjunction with these Interim Financial Statements.

The Interim Financial Statements were authorized for issuance in accordance with a resolution of the Company’s Board of Directors on February 3, 2021.

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 Direct-to-Consumer ("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.    Significant accounting policies and critical accounting estimates and judgments

Basis of presentation

The significant accounting policies and critical accounting estimates and judgments as disclosed in the Company’s March 29, 2020 annual consolidated financial statements have been applied consistently in the preparation of these Interim Financial Statements except as noted below. The Interim Financial Statements are presented in Canadian dollars, the Company’s functional and presentation currency.

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. Fiscal 2021 will end on March 28, 2021 and will be a 52-week fiscal year. Fiscal 2021 comprises four fiscal quarters ending on June 28, 2020, September 27, 2020, December 27, 2020 and March 28, 2021. In the Interim Financial Statements, the term "third quarter ended December 27, 2020" refers to the 13 week period ended December 27, 2020 and the term "third quarter ended December 29, 2019" refers to the 13 week period ended December 29, 2019. Fiscal 2020 was a 52-week fiscal year.

Certain comparative figures have been restated to conform with current year presentation.

Product development costs, primarily employee salaries and benefits, were previously included in inventories and intangible assets, with subsequent recognition in cost of sales accordingly. As we continue to emphasize our DTC expansion, we have determined these activities in fiscal 2021 to now be more closely supportive of our current selling and marketing activities. As a result, effective the first quarter of fiscal 2021, product development costs incurred in the current quarter were recognized in selling, general and administrative expenses in the statement of income. Those product development costs included in existing inventory and intangible assets will continue to be recognized within cost of sales.

COVID-19 pandemic

Globally, public health officials have imposed restrictions and recommended precautions in response to the novel coronavirus pandemic ("COVID-19"). As a result, our retail stores are operating with restrictive and precautionary measures in place such as reduced operating hours, physical distancing, enhanced cleaning and sanitation, and limited occupancy levels. We have also experienced a significant reduction to wholesale shipments due to disruptions to partner operations. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, we temporarily reduced operating hours for our retail locations in Mainland China and closed our retail locations in North America and Europe. We began a gradual reopening of these locations during the first quarter of fiscal 2021 in accordance with guidance from local authorities, and all of our retail locations were operating as at September 27, 2020. During the third quarter of fiscal 2021, 21% of our retail locations in globally were impacted by store closures of over four weeks in response to government orders. We also temporarily closed our manufacturing facilities across Canada in March 2020, partially reopening them in April 2020 for the production of personal protective equipment ("PPE"). During the second quarter of fiscal 2021, we began a limited restart of the production of outerwear alongside PPE at all of our facilities. All of our manufacturing facilities were operating as at December 27, 2020 at lower output levels than historically realized to ensure appropriate distancing measures were in place.

In response to COVID-19, various government programs have been announced to provide financial relief for affected businesses. The most significant relief measure which the Company qualifies for is the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy ("CEWS") under the COVID-19 Economic

Canada Goose Holdings Inc. Page 6 of 34

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

(unaudited)

Response Plan in Canada. For the third and three quarters ended December 27, 2020, the Company recognized government subsidies totaling $6.4m and $27.1m, respectively, under this wage subsidy program and similar plans in other jurisdictions. The Company recognizes government grants when there is reasonable assurance that it will comply with the conditions required to qualify for the grant, and that the grant will be received. These subsidies were recorded as a reduction to the associated wage costs which the Company incurred during the third and three quarters ended December 27, 2020, and were recognized in cost of sales ($4.8m and $13.9m respectively), selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") ($1.6m and $12.8m respectively), and other costs ($nil and $0.4m respectively). No such grants were applied for or received in respect of the manufacture and sale of PPE as these were sold to health authorities at cost.

In May 2020, the IASB issued an amendment to IFRS 16, Leases exempting lessees from determining whether COVID-19 related rent concessions are lease modifications. The amendment is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after June 1, 2020 and earlier application is permitted. In accordance with the guidance issued, the Company adopted the amendment effective March 30, 2020 and elected not to treat COVID-19 related rent concessions as lease modifications. Rent concessions of $0.9m and $3.3m were recognized in the statement of income for the third and three quarters ended December 27, 2020, respectively, and the Company will consider seeking further rent concessions as it continues to monitor the impact of COVID-19.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2021, we began a limited restart of the production of outerwear alongside PPE, at all of our facilities, while ensuring compliance with COVID-19 safety protocols. In the first quarter of fiscal 2021, our manufacturing facilities were temporarily closed and net overhead costs of $4.3m were recognized in cost of sales. Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The Company periodically reviews the value of inventories and makes provisions as necessary to estimate the amounts expected to be unrecoverable due to obsolescence, damage, or declining selling prices. For the three quarters ended December 27, 2020, the Company did not recognize any significant additional write-offs of inventories (note 6).

As a result of the temporary store closures, net costs of $1.0m and $8.1m were recognized in selling, general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization, and interest during the third and three quarters ended December 27, 2020, respectively.

Management assessed whether indicators of impairment existed as at December 27, 2020 in accordance with IAS 36, Impairment of Assets, and no indicators were identified.

Principles of consolidation

The Interim Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

Operating segments

The Company classifies its business in three operating and reportable segments: DTC, Wholesale, and Other. The DTC segment comprises sales through country-specific e-commerce platforms and its Company-owned retail stores located in luxury shopping locations.

The Wholesale segment comprises sales made to a mix of functional and fashionable retailers, including major luxury department stores, outdoor specialty stores, and individual shops, and to international distributors, who are partners that have exclusive rights to an entire market.

Canada Goose Holdings Inc. Page 7 of 34

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

(unaudited)

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company revised the previous Unallocated segment to the Other segment. The Other segment comprises sales and costs not directly allocated to the DTC or Wholesale channels, such as sales to employees and sales of PPE in response to COVID-19, and selling, general and administrative expenses not directly allocated to the DTC or Wholesale segments. The Other segment includes the cost of marketing expenditures and product development to build brand awareness across all segments, corporate costs in support of manufacturing operations, other corporate costs and foreign exchange gains and losses not specifically associated with DTC or Wholesale segment operations. It also includes costs incurred as a consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic including overhead costs resulting from the temporary closure of our manufacturing facilities. Comparative information has been restated to conform with the presentation adopted in the current year.

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 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. The amendment is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. Earlier application is permitted. The Company is assessing the potential impact of the amendment.

Note 3.    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, which is the profit metric utilized by the Company's chief operating decision maker, the President and Chief Executive Officer, for assessing the performance of operating segments. Our DTC and Wholesale operating segments are not reliant on any single external customer.

The Company does not report total assets or total liabilities based on its reportable operating segments.

Note 11.    Provisions

Provisions consist primarily of amounts recorded with respect to customer warranty obligations, sales returns, asset retirement obligations, and termination of sales agents and distributors.

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 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.

Sales returns relate primarily to goods sold through the Wholesale channel. Beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, the receipt of returned products was delayed in the Wholesale channel as a result of COVID-19. Goods sold through the DTC channel have a limited right of return (typically 30 days), or exchange only, in certain jurisdictions. The return policy is extended during the holiday shopping period to accommodate a higher volume of activity and purchases given as gifts. The balance as at December 27, 2020 and December 29, 2019 includes seasonal Direct-to-Consumer sales over the holiday selling season.

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.

March 29, 2020 19.4 10.7 3.9 3.0 37.0

For the three quarters ended December 27, 2020, the Company recognized a net restructuring cost of $1.6m, associated with the May 20, 2020 reorganization to address the impact of COVID-19 pandemic. The provision primarily consisted of employee severance costs which included obligations related to ongoing payments and represented the best estimate of the amount that will ultimately be paid out. This was recorded in net interest, finance and other costs in the statement of income. At December 27, 2020, all amounts were paid related to these costs.

Note 12.     Borrowings

Short-term borrowings

On July 18, 2019, a subsidiary of the Company in Greater China entered into an uncommitted loan facility in the amount of RMB 160.0m. The facility includes a non-financial bank guarantee facility in the amount of RMB 10.0m. The term of each draw on the loan is one, three or six months or such other period as agreed upon and shall not exceed twelve months (including any extension or rollover). The interest rate is equal to 105% of the applicable People's Bank of China Benchmark Lending Rate and payable at one, three or six months, depending on the term of each draw. The facility is guaranteed by the Company and proceeds drawn on the facility will be used to support working capital requirements. As at December 27, 2020, the Company had $7.0m owing on the facility (December 29, 2019 and March 29, 2020 - $nil).

Revolving facility

The Company has an agreement with a syndicate of lenders for a senior secured asset-based credit facility consisting of (i) a revolving credit facility in the amount of $417.5m (the "Existing Revolving Facility"), with an increase in commitments to $467.5m during the peak season (June 1 - November 30) (February 24, 2020 to May 25, 2020 - $467.5m with an increase to $517.5m during the peak season, May 10, 2019 to February 23, 2020 - $300.0m, with an increase to $350.0m during the peak season), and (ii) a FILO revolving facility in the amount of $50.0m (the "FILO revolving facility"). Amounts owing can be drawn in Canadian dollars, U.S. dollars, euros, British pounds sterling or other currencies. The revolving facility matures on June 3, 2024 and

Canada Goose Holdings Inc. Page 18 of 34

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

(unaudited)

the FILO revolving facility matures on May 25, 2021. Amounts owing under the revolving facility may be borrowed, repaid and re-borrowed for general corporate purposes.

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, LIBOR rate, or EURIBOR rate plus an applicable margin, with interest payable quarterly or at the end of the then current interest period (whichever is earlier). 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 December 27, 2020, December 29, 2019 and March 29, 2020, the Company had repaid all amounts owing on the revolving facility and related deferred financing charges in the amounts of $1.9m, $1.5m, and $1.7m respectively, were included in other long-term liabilities. As at and during the three quarters ended December 27, 2020, the Company was in compliance with all covenants.

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 December 27, 2020, the Company had letters of credit outstanding under the revolving facility of $5.3m (December 29, 2019 - $5.5m, March 29, 2020 - $5.7m). The Company had unused borrowing capacity available under the revolving facility of $256.2m as at December 27, 2020 (December 29, 2019 - $294.5m, March 29, 2020 - $226.6m).

Amendments to revolving facility

On May 26, 2020, the Company entered into a further amendment to the revolving facility to increase its ability to borrow against the borrowing base by up to $50.0m. Borrowings under the Existing Revolving Facility were transferred to the FILO Revolving Facility on the transaction date and future amounts are drawn in priority on 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 matures on May 25, 2021 and upon maturity, the credit commitments on the Existing Revolving Facility will be restored, resulting in no net change in aggregate commitments under the revolving facility. Transaction costs are amortized over the term of the facility.

Term loan

The Company has a senior secured loan agreement with a syndicate of lenders that is secured on a split collateral basis alongside the revolving facility, with an aggregate principal amount owing of US$300.0m (December 29, 2019 and March 29, 2020 - US$113.8m). The term loan bears the interest rate of LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 4.25%, provided that LIBOR may not be less than 0.75%, payable quarterly in arrears. The term loan matures on October 7, 2027 and US$0.8m of the principal amount is repayable quarterly beginning on March 31, 2021. Voluntary prepayments of amounts owing under the term loan may be made at any time without premium or penalty (except LIBOR breakage costs and a call premium in the case of certain repricing events prior to April 7, 2021), 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 three quarters ended December 27, 2020, 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.

The amount outstanding with respect to the term loan is as follows:

(in millions of Canadian dollars) December 27,<br>2020 December 29,<br>2019 March 29,<br>2020
$ $ $
Term loan 385.9 148.8 159.3
Unamortized portion of deferred transaction costs (6.0) (1.2) (1.2)
Original issue discount (3.8)
376.1 147.6 158.1

Amendment to the term loan facility

On October 7, 2020, the Company entered into a refinancing amendment to its existing term loan facility to increase the aggregate principal amount to US$300.0m from US$113.8m. The Company accounted for the amendment to the term loan as a debt extinguishment due to the significant changes to the terms. As a result, deferred financing costs of $1.1m on the existing term loan facility were written-off. In connection with the amendment, the Company incurred transaction costs of US$4.7m and an original issue discount of US$3.0m, which are being amortized using the effective interest rate method over the new term to maturity.

Hedging transactions on term loan

The Company enters into derivative transactions to hedge a portion of its exposure to foreign currency exchange risk and interest rate risk related to the term loan denominated in U.S. dollars. Following the refinancing of the term loan on October 7, 2020, the cross-currency swap designated and accounted for as a cash flow hedge in relation to the previous term loan was deemed ineffective; however, the other designated hedge transactions remained effective.

Canada Goose Holdings Inc. Page 20 of 34

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

(unaudited)

On October 30, 2020, the Company terminated its existing derivative contracts associated with the previous term loan and entered into new derivative transactions to better align with the refinancing amendment to the term loan. The Company entered into a five-year interest rate swap by selling US$270.0m, floating rate debt bearing interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin 4.25% as measured on the trade date, provided that LIBOR may not be less than 0.75%, for a fixed rate debt bearing interest at a rate of 5.20%. The interest rate swap was designated at inception and accounted for as a cash flow hedge, and to the extent that the hedge remains effective, unrealized gains and losses will be included in other comprehensive income until reclassified to the statement of income as the hedged interest payments and principal repayments (or periodic remeasurements) impact net income.

The Company also entered into a five-year forward exchange contract by selling $368.5m and receiving US$270.0m as measured on the trade date, to fix the foreign exchange risk on a portion of the term loan borrowings. Unrealized gains and losses in the fair value of the forward contract are recognized in selling, general and administrative expenses in the statement of income, which offset the unrealized gains and losses recognized on the principal of the term loan that are also recognized in SG&A.

Issued

Multiple voting shares - Holders of the multiple voting shares are entitled to 10 votes per multiple voting share. Multiple voting shares are convertible at any time at the option of the holder into one subordinate voting share. The multiple voting shares will automatically be converted into subordinate voting shares when they cease to be owned by one of the principal shareholders. In addition, the multiple voting shares of either of the principal shareholders will automatically be converted to subordinate voting shares at such time as the beneficial ownership of that shareholder falls below 15% of the outstanding subordinate voting shares and multiple voting shares outstanding, or additionally, in the case of DTR, when the President and Chief Executive Officer no longer serves as a director of the Company or in a senior management position.

Subordinate voting shares - Holders of the subordinate voting shares are entitled to one vote per subordinate voting share.

The rights of the subordinate voting shares and the multiple voting shares are substantially identical, except for voting and conversion. Subject to the prior rights of any preferred shares, the holders of subordinate and multiple voting shares participate equally in any dividends declared and share equally in any distribution of assets on liquidation, dissolution, or winding up.

Note 14.    Share-based payments

The Company has issued stock options to purchase subordinate voting shares under its incentive plans, prior to the public share offering on March 21, 2017, the Legacy Plan, and subsequently, the Omnibus Plan. All options are issued at an exercise price that is not less than market value at the time of grant and expire ten years after the grant date.

Legacy Plan

Under the terms of the Legacy Plan, options were granted to certain executives of the Company which are exercisable to purchase subordinate voting shares. The options vest contingent upon meeting the service, performance goals and exit event conditions of the Legacy Plan. No new options will be issued under the Legacy Plan.

a)Service-vested options

Service-vested options are subject to the executive’s continuing employment and generally are scheduled to vest 40% on the second anniversary of the date of grant, 20% on the third anniversary, 20% on the fourth anniversary and 20% on the fifth anniversary.

b)Performance-vested and exit event options

Performance-vested options that are tied to an exit event are eligible to vest pro rata on the same schedule as service-vested options, but do not vest until the exit event has occurred. All exit event conditions have been met, and no outstanding options are subject to exit event conditions.

Other performance-vested options vest based on measurable performance targets that do not involve an exit event. Performance-vested options are subject to the executive’s continued employment.

Omnibus Plan

Under the terms of the Omnibus Plan, options are granted to certain employees of the Company which are exercisable to purchase subordinate voting shares. The options vest over four years contingent upon meeting the service conditions of the Omnibus Plan, 25% on each anniversary of the date of grant.

Stock option transactions are as follows:

Three quarters ended
December 27,<br>2020 December 29,<br>2019
(in millions of Canadian dollars, except share and per share amounts) Weighted average exercise price Number of shares Weighted average exercise price Number of shares

Options outstanding, end of period $ 36.40 2,673,752 $ 28.49 2,153,772

Restricted share units

Under the Omnibus Plan, the Company has granted RSUs to employees of the Company. The RSUs are treated as equity instruments for accounting purposes. We expect that vested RSUs will be paid at settlement through the issuance of one subordinate voting share per RSU. The RSUs vest over a period of three years, a third on each anniversary of the date of grant.

RSUs transactions are as follows:

Three quarters ended
December 27,<br>2020 December 29,<br>2019

RSUs outstanding, end of period 137,666 39,432

Subordinate voting shares, to a maximum of 3,985,463 shares, have been reserved for issuance under equity incentive plans to select employees of the Company, with vesting contingent upon meeting the service, performance goals and other conditions of the Plan.

Accounting for share-based awards

For the third and three quarters ended December 27, 2020, the Company recorded $3.0m and $7.7m respectively, as contributed surplus and compensation expense for the vesting of stock options and RSUs (for the third and three quarters ended December 29, 2019 - $1.9m and $5.9m, respectively). Share-based compensation expense is included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

The assumptions used to measure the fair value of options granted under the Black-Scholes option pricing model at the grant date were as follows:

Three quarters ended
(in millions of Canadian dollars, except share and per share amounts) December 27,<br>2020 December 29,<br>2019
Weighted average stock price valuation $ 37.19 $ 59.19
Weighted average exercise price $ 37.19 $ 59.19
Risk-free interest rate 0.32 % 1.50 %
Expected life in years 5 5
Expected dividend yield % — %
Volatility 40 % 40 %
Weighted average fair value of options issued $ 9.90 $ 18.11

Fair value for RSUs is determined based on the market value of the subordinate voting shares at the time of grant. As at December 27, 2020, the weighted average fair value of the RSUs issued was $33.97 (December 29, 2019 - $45.57).

Note 15.    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. For the third and three quarters ended December 27, 2020, the Company incurred expenses with related parties of $0.4m and $0.8m, respectively (for the third and three quarters ended December 29, 2019 - $0.5m and $1.0m, respectively) from companies related to certain shareholders. Net balances owing to related parties as at December 27, 2020 were $0.9m (December 29, 2019 - $0.5m, March 29, 2020 - $0.4m).

A lease liability due to the controlling shareholder of the acquired Baffin Inc. business (the "Baffin Vendor") for leased premises was $4.8m as at December 27, 2020 (December 29, 2019 - $5.5m, March 29, 2020 - $5.3m). For the third and three quarters ended December 27, 2020, 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 $0.3m and $0.9m, respectively (for the third and three quarters ended December 29, 2019 - $0.3m and $1.0m, respectively). No amounts were owing to Baffin entities as at December 27, 2020, December 29, 2019, and March 29, 2020. Furthermore, $3.0m was paid to the Baffin Vendor on November 1, 2020 and charged to expense over two years.

Note 17.    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, which consists of equity (subordinate voting shares and multiple shares voting shares), short-term borrowings, and long-term debt (the revolving facility and the term loan), with the objectives of safeguarding sufficient net working capital over the annual operating cycle and providing sufficient financial resources to grow operations to meet long-term consumer demand. Management targets a ratio of trailing 52 or 53-week period adjusted EBITDAR (defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and rent expense) to net debt, reflecting the seasonal change in the business as net working capital builds through the second fiscal quarter. 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 short-term borrowings and the revolving 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.

Pension obligation 3.2 3.2

(1)    Interest commitments are calculated based on the loan balance and the interest rate payable on the short-term borrowings and the term loan of 4.26% and 5.00%, respectively, as at December 27, 2020.

Letter of guarantee facility

On April 14, 2020, Canada Goose Inc. entered into a letter of guarantee facility in the amount of $10.0m. Letters of guarantee are available for terms of up to twelve months and will be charged a fee equal to 1.2% 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 shall immediately reimburse the issuing bank for amounts drawn on issued letters of guarantees. At December 27, 2020, the Company had $3.8m outstanding.

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. As at December 27, 2020, accounts receivable totaling approximately $26.3m (December 29, 2019 - $68.3m, March 29, 2020 - $20.1m) were insured, under a maximum credit limit of $30.0m. Accounts receivable as at December 27, 2020 included $3.6m of receivables from government authorities related to PPE sales which were not insured.

Credit insurance is subject to continuous review by the insurer and can be reduced or eliminated if, in the view of the insurer, the customer's credit worthiness has deteriorated. Upon receiving notification of credit insurance limit modifications, credit insurance remains in place for 60 days.

During the three quarters ended December 27, 2020, the Company experienced significant reductions in the market availability of credit insurance for a number of its customers.

Complementary to the third party insurance, the Company routinely assesses the financial strength of its customers through a combination of third party financial reports, credit monitoring, publicly available information, and direct communication with those customers. The Company establishes payment terms with customers to mitigate credit risk and continues to closely monitor its accounts receivable credit risk exposure.

Customer deposits are received in advance from certain customers for seasonal orders to further mitigate credit risk, and are applied to reduce accounts receivable when goods are shipped. As at December 27, 2020, customer deposits of $5.8m (December 29, 2019 - $5.6m, March 29, 2020 - $2.1m) were included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

The aging of trade receivables was as follows:

Trade accounts receivable factoring program

On December 23, 2019, a subsidiary of the Company in Europe entered into an agreement to factor, on a limited recourse basis, certain of its trade accounts receivable up to a limit of €20.0m 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 EURIBOR or LIBOR 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 three quarters ended December 27, 2020, the Company received cash proceeds from the sale of trade accounts receivable with carrying values of $15.8m which were derecognized from the Company's statement of financial position. Fees of less than $0.1m were incurred during the three quarters ended December 27, 2020 (three quarters ended December 29, 2019 - $0.1m) and included in net interest, finance and other costs in the statement of income. As at December 27, 2020, the outstanding amount of trade accounts receivable derecognized from the Company’s statement of financial position, but which the Company continued to service was $6.0m (December 29, 2019 - $6.4m, March 29, 2020 - $2.4m).

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.

Foreign exchange risk

Foreign exchange risk in operating cash flows

The Company’s Interim Financial Statements are expressed in Canadian dollars, but a substantial portion of the Company’s revenues, inventory purchases and expenses are denominated in other currencies, principally U.S. dollars, euros, British pounds sterling, Swiss francs, Chinese yuan, and Hong Kong dollars. 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. The operating hedge program for the fiscal year ending March 28, 2021 was initiated during the fourth quarter of the 2019 fiscal year. On December 18, 2020, the Company initiated the operating hedge program for the fiscal year ending April 3, 2022.

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. Appreciating foreign currencies relative to the Canadian dollar, to the extent they are not hedged, will positively impact operating income and net income, while depreciating foreign currencies relative to the Canadian dollar will have the opposite impact.

Foreign exchange risk on borrowings

The Company hedges a portion of its exposure to foreign currency exchange risk on principal and interest payments on its term loan denominated in U.S. dollars (note 12).

The Company recognized the following unrealized losses and gains in the fair value of derivatives designed as hedging instruments in other comprehensive income:

For the third and three quarters ended December 27, 2020, unrealized losses of $14.7m and $16.4m, respectively (for the third and three quarters ended December 29, 2019 - an unrealized loss of $0.3m and an unrealized gain $0.7m, respectively) in the fair value of the long-dated forward exchange contract related to a portion of the term loan balance were recognized in selling, general and administrative expenses in the statement of income.

Interest rate risk

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk related to the effect of interest rate changes on borrowings outstanding under short-term borrowings, the revolving facility, and the term loan. As at December 27, 2020, the Company had repaid all amounts owing on the revolving facility. As at December 27, 2020, the Company had $7.0m outstanding on the short-term borrowings and $385.9m under the term loan. These currently bear interest rates at 4.26% and 5.00%, respectively. Based on the weighted average amount of outstanding borrowings on our short-term borrowings during the three quarters ended December 27, 2020, a 1.00% increase in the average interest rate on our borrowings would have increased interest expense by less than $0.1m (for the three quarters ended December 29, 2019 - less than $0.1m). Correspondingly, a 1.00% increase in the average interest rate would have increased interest expense on the revolving facility and term loan by $1.1m and $1.7m, respectively (for the three quarters ended December 29, 2019 - $0.9m and $1.1m, respectively). Interest rate risk on the term loan is partially mitigated by cross-currency swap hedges. The impact on future interest expense as a result of future changes in interest rates will depend largely on the gross amount of borrowings at that time.

Segments

Our reporting segments align with our sales channels: Direct-to-Consumer (“DTC”), Wholesale, and Other. We measure each reportable operating segment’s performance based on revenue and operating income. As at December 27, 2020, our DTC segment includes sales to customers through our 51 national e-commerce markets and 28 directly operated retail stores across North America, Europe, and Asia. Through our wholesale segment, we sell to a mix of retailers, including major luxury department stores, outdoor specialty stores, individual shops, and to international distributors.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company revised the previously disclosed Unallocated segment to the Other segment. The Other segment comprises sales and costs not directly allocated to the DTC or Wholesale channels, such as sales to employees and sales of personal protective equipment ("PPE") in response to COVID-19, and selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses not directly allocated to the DTC or Wholesale segments. The Other

Canada Goose Holdings Inc. Page 4 of 48

segment includes the cost of marketing expenditures and product development to build brand awareness across all segments, corporate costs in support of manufacturing operations, other corporate costs, and foreign exchange gains and losses not specifically associated with DTC or Wholesale segment operations. It also includes costs incurred as a consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic including overhead costs resulting from the temporary closure of our manufacturing facilities. Comparative information has been restated to conform with the presentation adopted in the current year.

Factors Affecting our Performance

We believe that our performance depends on many factors including those discussed below.

•COVID-19 pandemic. Globally, public health officials have imposed restrictions and recommended precautions to mitigate the spread of COVID-19. As a result, our retail stores are operating with restrictive and precautionary measures in place such as reduced operating hours, physical distancing, enhanced cleaning and sanitation, and limited occupancy levels. We have also experienced a significant reduction to wholesale shipments due to disruptions to partner operations. These circumstances have had material adverse consequences on our results of operations for the three quarters ended December 27, 2020 and are likely to negatively impact future fiscal periods as disruptions and prolonged consequences associated with the COVID-19 pandemic continue. Disruptions could also affect e-commerce shipments due to issues with fulfillment. The extent of the impact will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and out of our control, including, among others, the duration and intensity of the COVID-19 pandemic and the pace of roll-out of the COVID-19 vaccination programs.

We continue to monitor the situation and work closely with local authorities to prioritize the safety of our people and our guests. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, we temporarily reduced operating hours for our retail locations in Mainland China and closed our retail locations in North America and Europe. We began a gradual reopening of these locations during the first quarter of fiscal 2021 in accordance with guidance from local authorities, with all of our retail locations operating by the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2021. During the third quarter of fiscal 2021, 21% of our retail locations globally were impacted by store closures of over four weeks in response to government orders. Globally, 7 of 28 of our retail stores, representing 25% of our network, are currently closed. We also temporarily closed our manufacturing facilities across Canada in March 2020, partially reopening them in April 2020 for the production of PPE. During the second quarter of fiscal 2021, we began a limited restart of the production of outerwear alongside PPE at all of our facilities, and all of our manufacturing facilities are currently in operation. There has been a significant reduction in the capacity of our network, including our facilities, due to the distancing measures required. We expect to return to more normal levels of production as restrictions, regulations, and recommended precautions as imposed by local health authorities globally are lifted. As we have done in fiscal 2021, we will continue to leverage our subcontractor network to ensure supply is balanced with demand. It is possible that further closures may be required in response to government orders in the countries in which we operate, and any such government orders could impact our retail stores and manufacturing facilities as well as our wholesale partners.

In response to COVID-19, various government programs globally have been announced to provide financial relief for affected businesses. The most significant relief measure which the Company qualifies for is the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy ("CEWS") under the

Canada Goose Holdings Inc. Page 5 of 48

COVID-19 Economic Response Plan in Canada. For the third and three quarters ended December 27, 2020, the Company recognized government subsidies totaling $6.4m and $27.1m, respectively, under this wage subsidy program and similar plans in other jurisdictions. These subsidies were recorded as a reduction to the associated wage costs which we incurred during the third and three quarters ended December 27, 2020, and were recognized in cost of sales ($4.8m and $13.9m respectively), SG&A expenses ($1.6m and $12.8m respectively), and other costs ($nil and $0.4m respectively). We also received rent concessions in the form of abatements and deferrals and will consider seeking further rent relief as we continue to monitor the impact of COVID-19. Rent concessions of $0.9m and $3.3m were recognized in the statement of income for the third and three quarters ended December 27, 2020, respectively.

•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 in certain countries and travel corridors. We have been, and may in the future be, impacted by widespread protests such as the political disruptions in Hong Kong which began in 2019 and the protests that have occurred in many North American cities in 2020. To the extent that such disruptions persist, we expect that our operations and traffic at our retail stores may be impacted.

•Market development. Our market development strategy has been a key driver of our recent revenue growth and we plan to continue to execute our global expansion strategy, though such expansion has been delayed and may be delayed further due to COVID-19. Nevertheless, we have been expanding retail and e-commerce globally during the pandemic, including through the opening of new retail stores and the expansion of e-commerce to additional countries. Across our various markets, we intend to continue increasing brand awareness and activating local markets while expanding our distribution globally.

•Growth in our DTC Channel. We intend to continue expanding retail and e-commerce access globally, though the scale of such retail expansion has been impacted and may be delayed due to COVID-19. This is expected to further alter the seasonality of our financial performance, as customers tend to purchase goods in retail stores and on e-commerce sites at a higher rate in our third and fourth fiscal quarters, compared to the wholesale channel, where products are primarily delivered to wholesale partners in the second and third quarters.

•New Products. We intend to continue investing in innovation and the development and introduction of new products across styles, uses, and climates. Additionally, we continue to sell Baffin branded footwear through Baffin’s own distinct sales channels. We are also planning to develop a separate Canada Goose footwear offering, leveraging Baffin’s infrastructure, processes, and technology. We expect that certain new products may carry a lower gross margin per unit relative to our long-standing styles which are produced in significantly higher volumes.

Canada Goose Holdings Inc. Page 6 of 48

•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 77.9%, 75.8%, and 74.2% of our consolidated revenue in the combined second and third fiscal quarters of fiscal 2020, fiscal 2019, and fiscal 2018 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 EBIT(1) in the first and fourth quarters, respectively. As a result of our seasonality, changes that impact gross margin and adjusted EBIT(1) can have a disproportionate impact on the quarterly results when they are recorded in our off-peak revenue periods.

(1)    Adjusted EBIT is a non-IFRS measure. See “Non-IFRS Financial Measures” for a description of these measures.

Guided by expected demand and wholesale orders, prior to fiscal 2021 we have historically manufactured on a linear basis throughout the fiscal year. Net working capital requirements typically increase as inventory builds. We finance these needs through a combination of cash on hand and borrowings on the Revolving Facility and the uncommitted loan facility in China (the “Short-term Borrowings”). 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.

•Developments in international trade. We continue to monitor the impact on our operations in Europe and the U.K. as a result of the British exit from the European Union (“Brexit”) and will make the necessary adjustments in response to changes in the market. Our preparations for Brexit included, among other activities, opening a third-party logistics facility early in fiscal 2021, advanced inventory staging in the U.K. in the event of disruptions to the flow of goods, and adding processes to utilize duty savings under the Canada-U.K. Continuity Trade Agreement. Duty savings continue for U.S. shipments under the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement. We continue to benefit from reduced tariffs on certain of our products imported into Europe under the Canada-European Union Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement which entered into force provisionally on September 21, 2017 and is pending ratification by certain EU countries. We monitor developments in international trade in countries where we operate that could have an impact on our business.

•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 2020, 2019, and 2018, we generated 62.3%, 58.0%, and 53.7%, respectively, of our revenue in currencies other than Canadian dollars. Historically, most of our wholesale revenue was derived from orders made prior to the beginning of the fiscal year. This high degree of visibility into our anticipated future cash flows from wholesale operations is now significantly less certain given the current economic environment. Most of our raw 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 part of our risk management program, we have entered into foreign exchange derivative contracts to manage certain of our exposures to exchange rate fluctuations for future foreign currency transactions, which is intended to reduce the variability of our operating costs and future cash flows denominated

Canada Goose Holdings Inc. Page 7 of 48

in local currencies. We continue to monitor our risk management program to take into account the prevailing global uncertainty of COVID-19.

We are exposed to translation and transaction risks associated with foreign currency exchange fluctuations on the Chinese renminbi denominated principal and interest amounts payable on our Short-term Borrowings and U.S. dollar denominated principal and interest amounts payable on our Revolving Facility and senior secured term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”). The Company has entered into foreign exchange cross-currency swap and forward contracts to hedge a portion of the exposure to foreign currency exchange and interest rate risk on the principal amount of the Term Loan Facility. See “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk - Foreign Exchange Risk” below.

The main foreign currency exchange rates that impact our business and operations as at and for the third and three quarters ended December 27, 2020 and for the year ended March 29, 2020 are summarized below:

Components of Our Results of Operations

Revenue

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

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 sales not directly allocated to the DTC or wholesale segments, such as sales to employees and sales of PPE to federal, provincial, and local health authorities.

Gross Profit

Gross profit is our revenue less cost of sales. Cost of sales comprises the cost of manufacturing our products, including raw materials, direct labour, and overhead, plus freight, duties, and non-refundable taxes incurred in delivering the goods to distribution centres managed by third parties or to our retail stores. Product development costs, primarily employee salaries and benefits, included in inventories and intangible assets are being recognized in cost of sales accordingly. Beginning in fiscal 2021, incurred product development costs, primarily employee salaries and benefits, are recognized in SG&A expenses. 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 in the provinces of Canada, and the allocation of overhead. Gross margin measures our gross profit as a percentage of revenue.

SG&A Expenses

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. Foreign exchange gains and losses are recorded in SG&A expenses and comprise the translation of assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the Company or its subsidiaries, including cash balances, the Short-term Borrowings, the Term Loan Facility, a portion of our Revolving Facility, mark-to-market adjustments on derivative contracts, gains or losses associated with our term loan hedges, and realized gains on settlement of foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities.

Selling costs, other than headcount-related costs, generally correlate to revenue timing and previous to fiscal 2021, 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 represent costs incurred in our corporate offices, primarily related to marketing, personnel costs (including salaries, variable incentive compensation,

Canada Goose Holdings Inc. Page 9 of 48

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 and anticipate continuing to do so in the future. Beginning in fiscal 2021, incurred product development costs, primarily employee salaries and benefits, are recognized in SG&A expenses.

Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation and amortization 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 and information technology-related expenditures to support growth.

Operating Income

Operating income is our gross profit less SG&A expenses and depreciation and amortization.

Net interest, finance and other costs

Net interest, finance and other costs represents interest expense on our borrowings including the Short-term Borrowings, the Revolving Facility, the Term Loan Facility, and lease liabilities, as well as standby fees, net of interest income. In addition, corporate restructuring costs have been recognized beginning in fiscal 2021.

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.

Revenue

Revenue for the three quarters ended December 27, 2020 was $694.9m, a decrease of $122.3m, or 15.0%, from $817.2m for the three quarters ended December 29, 2019. Revenue generated from our DTC and Wholesale segments decreased due to the COVID-19 factors described below, partially offset by $46.5m of PPE sales in our Other segment.

DTC

Revenue from our DTC segment for the three quarters ended December 27, 2020 was $356.0m compared to $410.8m for the three quarters ended December 29, 2019. The decrease of $54.8m was driven by COVID-19 disruptions globally in fiscal 2021 offset by e-commerce growth and our continued retail expansion driven by Mainland China. Revenue was negatively impacted by lower retail traffic, limited occupancy levels, and reduced operating hours, as well as government mandated closures for retail stores in Canada and Europe during our peak selling season. The decline in retail revenue was partially offset by the incremental revenue generated from 28 retail stores as at December 27, 2020 compared to 20 retail stores as at December 29, 2019 and e-commerce growth of 33.1%.

Wholesale

Revenue from our Wholesale segment for the three quarters ended December 27, 2020 was $288.0m compared to $399.0m for the three quarters ended December 29, 2019. The decrease of $111.0m was due to the significant reduction in the planned order book relative to the comparative period as a result of the continued impact of COVID-19.

Other

Revenue from our Other segment for the three quarters ended December 27, 2020 was $50.9m compared to $7.4m for the three quarters ended December 29, 2019. The increase of $43.5m was driven by $46.5m of PPE sales in support of COVID-19 response efforts in fiscal 2021, partially offset by a decrease in sales to employees.

(1)Constant currency revenue is a non-IFRS financial measure. See “Non-IFRS Financial Measures” for a description of this measure.

Revenue decreased across all geographic regions excluding Asia during the three quarters ended December 27, 2020 compared to the three quarters ended December 29, 2019 due to the impact of the COVID-19 factors described above. The decline in revenue was partially offset by higher revenue generated in Asia driven by the increase in DTC revenue, including growth of 30.5% in Greater China. Revenue generated in Canada during fiscal 2021 included PPE sales of $46.5m.

Gross Profit (Loss)

Gross profit and gross margin for the three quarters ended December 27, 2020 were $415.4m and 59.8%, respectively, compared to $499.7m and 61.1%, respectively, for the three quarters ended December 29, 2019. The decrease in gross profit was attributable to the decline in revenue noted above. The decrease in gross margin was a result of a higher proportion of revenue from our Other segment, partially offset by higher gross margins in the DTC and Wholesale segments.

DTC

Gross profit in our DTC segment was $277.4m for the three quarters ended December 27, 2020 compared to $308.8m for the three quarters ended December 29, 2019. The decrease in DTC gross profit was driven by the decline in segment revenue as a result of COVID-19. The increase in gross margin was attributable to higher pricing and a favourable geographic shift to

Asia and Europe and Rest of World (+180 bps). In addition, there were $2.4m (+70 bps) of government subsidies and duty recovery related to 2019 shipments to China (+50 bps).

Wholesale

Gross profit in our Wholesale segment was $140.7m for the three quarters ended December 27, 2020 compared to $189.1m for the three quarters ended December 29, 2019. The decrease in gross profit was driven by the decline in segment revenue as a result of COVID-19. The increase in gross margin was attributable to $10.1m (+350 bps) of government subsidies and a favourable pricing and geographic shift to Europe and Rest of World (+130 bps). This was partially offset by higher costs per unit as production levels were limited and impacted by COVID-19 safety protocols at our manufacturing facilities (-220 bps), and a higher proportion of distributor sales relative to the comparative period (-110 bps).

Other

Gross loss in our Other segment was $(2.7)m for the three quarters ended December 27, 2020 compared to gross profit of $1.8m for the three quarters ended December 29, 2019. The decrease in gross loss was attributable to $4.3m of net overhead costs resulting from the temporary closure of our manufacturing facilities in the first quarter of fiscal 2021 due to COVID-19. PPE gross loss and gross margin were $(0.7)m and (1.5)%, respectively. Gross profit and gross margin from employee sales in our Other segment were $2.3m and 53.0%, respectively, for the three quarters ended December 27, 2020 and $1.8m and 24.3%, respectively, in the comparative period.

SG&A Expenses

SG&A expenses were $255.7m for the three quarters ended December 27, 2020 compared to $254.6m for the three quarters ended December 29, 2019. The increase of $1.1m or 0.4% was attributable to $10.0m of unfavourable foreign exchange losses and $8.6m of higher costs driven by e-commerce volumes, partially offset by corporate initiatives to reduce costs across the business in response to COVID-19, and supplemented by $12.8m of government subsidies. SG&A expenses in the three quarters ended December 27, 2020 included $6.3m of product development costs and $2.2m of costs related to the transition of logistics, warehousing, and freight forwarding to new agencies to enhance our global distribution structure.

Canada Goose Holdings Inc. Page 14 of 48

$3.1m, along with a 3.7% increase of SG&A expenses as a percentage of segment revenue, was attributable to both the $8.6m of higher costs related to e-commerce volume and the net impact of increased costs associated with our expanded retail network largely offset by reduced variable costs driven by lower retail revenue. Partially offsetting these higher costs were $3.3m of savings from rent abatements and $2.4m of government subsidies. COVID-19 related temporary store closure and pre-store opening costs of $2.2m and $1.9m, respectively, were recognized in the three quarters ended December 27, 2020 compared to pre-store opening costs of $3.2m in the three quarters ended December 29, 2019.

Wholesale

SG&A expenses in our Wholesale segment were $31.4m for the three quarters ended December 27, 2020 compared to $36.4m for the three quarters ended December 29, 2019. The decrease was attributable to corporate initiatives to reduce costs in response to COVID-19, supplemented by $1.4m of government subsidies.

Other

SG&A expenses in our Other segment, which include unallocated corporate expenses, were $144.5m for the three quarters ended December 27, 2020 compared to $141.5m for the three quarters ended December 29, 2019. The increase was attributable to $10.0m of unfavourable foreign exchange fluctuations related to working capital and the Term Loan Facility, net of hedge impacts, as well as $6.3m of product development costs. This was partially offset by corporate initiatives to reduce costs across the business in response to COVID-19, supplemented by $9.0m of government subsidies.

Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation and amortization was $50.6m for the three quarters ended December 27, 2020 compared to $35.8m for the three quarters ended December 29, 2019, an increase of $14.8m. Of this increase, $11.3m was driven by the expanded store network related to 28 retail stores as at December 27, 2020 from 20 retail stores as at December 29, 2019 as well as information technology-related expenditures to support growth. Depreciation expense on right-of-use assets of $2.9m and $4.6m was related to pre-store opening costs and COVID-19 temporary store closures, respectively, in the three quarters ended December 27, 2020 compared to $5.7m of pre-store opening costs in the three quarters ended December 29, 2019.

Operating Income (Loss) and Margin

Operating income and operating margin were $109.1m and 15.7% for the three quarters ended December 27, 2020 compared to operating income and operating margin of $209.3m and 25.6% for the three quarters ended December 29, 2019. Operating income decreased as a result of reduced revenue due to the COVID-19 factors described previously. Operating margin decreased due to a higher proportion of revenue from the Other segment, which carries a lower operating margin. Operating income for the three quarters ended December 27, 2020 included $4.3m of net overhead costs due to the temporary closure of our manufacturing facilities in the first quarter of fiscal 2021 and $6.8m of net temporary store closure costs, resulting from the impact of COVID-19.

DTC

DTC segment operating income was $159.6m for the three quarters ended December 27, 2020 compared to operating income of $205.4m for the three quarters ended December 29, 2019. The decrease of $45.8m in operating income was attributable to COVID-19 temporary store closures resulting in lower revenue, partially offset by $4.8m of government subsidies and $3.3m of savings from rent abatements. COVID-19 related temporary store closure costs and pre-store opening costs of $6.8m and $4.8m, respectively, were recognized in fiscal 2021 compared to pre-store opening costs of $7.7m in fiscal 2020. The decline in the DTC operating margin reflects fixed cost deleverage as a result of lower store revenues driven by the impact of COVID-19, and operating 28 stores as at December 27, 2020 from 20 as at December 29, 2019. These drivers were partially offset by e-commerce revenue growth of 33.1%, which carries lower operating costs.

Wholesale

Wholesale segment operating income was $106.7m for the three quarters ended December 27, 2020 compared to operating income of $150.6m for the three quarters ended December 29, 2019. The decrease of $43.9m in operating income was attributable to the decline in revenue, partially offset by cost reduction initiatives and supplemented by $11.5m of government subsidies.

Other

Other segment operating loss was $(157.2)m for the three quarters ended December 27, 2020 compared to $(146.7)m for the three quarters ended December 29, 2019. The increase of $10.5m in operating loss was attributable to $10.0m of unfavourable foreign exchange losses,

Canada Goose Holdings Inc. Page 16 of 48

$6.3m of product development costs, and $4.3m of net overhead costs resulting from the temporary closure of our manufacturing facilities due to COVID-19. This was offset by corporate initiatives to reduce costs in response to COVID-19, as well as $9.0m of government subsidies recognized in SG&A expenses.

Net Interest, Finance and Other Costs

Net interest, finance and other costs were $22.7m for the three quarters ended December 27, 2020 compared to $23.9m for the three quarters ended December 29, 2019. The decrease was attributable to the lower acceleration of unamortized costs in connection with the refinancing of the Term Loan Facility by $5.9m from the comparative period, offset by higher interest charges on the Term Loan Facility of $2.4m due to the Refinancing Amendment (as defined further below under “Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources - Indebtedness - Amendment to the Term Loan Facility”) and corporate restructuring costs of $1.6m in the three quarters ended December 27, 2020. Excluding the impact of interest on lease liabilities of $7.1m for the three quarters ended December 27, 2020 and $6.3m for the three quarters ended December 29, 2019, interest charges decreased by $2.0m from the comparative period as a result of a lower average interest rate on higher gross borrowings.

Income Taxes

Income tax expense was $19.1m for the three quarters ended December 27, 2020 compared to an income tax expense of $36.2m for the three quarters ended December 29, 2019. For the three quarters ended December 27, 2020, the effective and statutory tax rates were 22.1% and 25.4%, respectively, compared to 19.5% and 25.5% for the three quarters ended December 29, 2019, respectively. Given our global operations, the effective tax rate is largely impacted by our profit or loss in taxable jurisdictions relative to the applicable tax rates.

Net Income

Net income for the three quarters ended December 27, 2020 was $67.3m compared to $149.2m for the three quarters ended December 29, 2019, driven by the factors described above.

DTC

Revenue from our DTC segment for the third quarter ended December 27, 2020 was $299.4m compared to $301.8m for the third quarter ended December 29, 2019. The decrease of $2.4m was driven by COVID-19 disruptions globally, almost entirely offset by e-commerce growth of 39.3% and our continued retail expansion driven by Mainland China. Globally, 21% of our retail stores were impacted by mandatory closures of over four weeks during our peak season.

Wholesale

Revenue from our Wholesale segment for the third quarter ended December 27, 2020 was $160.8m compared to $145.3m for the third quarter ended December 29, 2019. The increase of $15.5m was due to the later timing of shipments relative to fiscal 2020 to accommodate wholesale partner operations as a result of COVID-19.

Other

Revenue from our Other segment for the third quarter ended December 27, 2020 was $13.8m compared to $5.0m for the third quarter ended December 29, 2019. The increase of $8.8m was attributable to $10.7m of PPE sales in support of COVID-19 response efforts in the third quarter of fiscal 2021, partially offset by a decrease in sales to employees from the comparative quarter.

Revenue increased in Asia and Europe and Rest of World for the third quarter ended December 27, 2020 compared to the third quarter ended December 29, 2019 resulting from an increase in DTC revenue, including growth of 35.9% in Greater China. The increase in revenue was partially offset by a decline in revenue in Canada and the United States due to the COVID-19 factors described above, including a lower wholesale order book and prolonged store closures in significant markets in Canada.

The increase in gross profit was attributable to higher revenue as well as $4.8m of government subsidies. The increase in gross margin resulted from higher DTC and Wholesale segment gross margins, partially offset by a lower Other segment gross margin.

Gross profit in our Wholesale segment was $82.8m for the third quarter ended December 27, 2020 compared to $70.4m for the third quarter ended December 29, 2019. The increase in gross profit and gross margin was attributable to the net impact of higher pricing and the positive impact of volume (+180 bps) driven by parkas, partially offset by the unfavourable impact of a higher proportion of distributor sales (-80 bps). Gross margin was also positively impacted by $3.1m (+200 bps) of government subsidies.

The increase of $6.7m, along with the 2.4% increase of SG&A expenses as a percentage of segment revenue, was attributable to both $7.7m of higher costs related to e-commerce volumes and the net impact of increased costs associated with our expanded retail network which was largely offset by reduced variable costs driven by lower retail revenue. In addition, there were $0.9m of savings from rent abatements and $0.4m of government subsidies. COVID-19 related temporary store closure and pre-store opening costs of $0.3m and $0.2m, respectively, were recognized in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to pre-store opening costs of $0.7m in the comparative quarter.

Of the increase, $4.1m was driven by the expanded store network related to 28 retail stores as at December 27, 2020 from 20 retail stores as at December 29, 2019 as well as information technology-related expenditures to support growth. Depreciation expense on right-of-use assets of $0.9m and $0.6m was related to pre-store opening costs and COVID-19 temporary store closures, respectively, in the third quarter ended December 27, 2020 compared to $1.1m of pre-store opening costs in the third quarter ended December 29, 2019.

The change in operating income was attributable to higher gross profit in the Wholesale and DTC segments. This was offset by an increase in SG&A expenses including $8.4m of higher marketing spend, $7.7m of higher costs driven by e-commerce volumes, $7.1m of unfavourable foreign exchange losses, and a $5.0m increase in depreciation and amortization.

DTC

DTC segment operating income was $164.7m for the third quarter ended December 27, 2020 compared to operating income of $168.9m for the third quarter ended December 29, 2019. The decrease in operating income and operating margin of $4.2m and 1.0%, respectively, were due to lower retail store revenues than the comparative quarter driven by the impact of COVID-19 and fixed cost deleverage related to operating 28 stores from 20. These drivers were partially offset by e-commerce revenue growth of 39.3%, which carries lower operating costs. In addition, there were $0.9m of savings from rent abatements and $2.0m of government subsidies. Pre-store opening costs and COVID-19 related temporary store closure costs of $1.1m and $1.0m, respectively, were recognized in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to pre-store opening costs of $1.7m in the third quarter of fiscal 2020.

Wholesale

Wholesale segment operating income was $69.0m for the third quarter ended December 27, 2020 compared to operating income of $55.2m for the third quarter ended December 29, 2019. The increases in operating income and operating margin of $13.8m and 6.0%, respectively, were attributable to a higher gross profit and cost reduction initiatives, supplemented by $3.1m of government subsidies.

Other

Other segment operating loss was $(80.4)m for the third quarter ended December 27, 2020 compared to $(62.7)m for the third quarter ended December 29, 2019. The increase in operating loss was attributable to higher operating costs including an $8.4m increase in marketing costs, $7.1m of unfavourable foreign exchange losses, and $3.3m of product development costs. This was partially offset by $1.3m of government subsidies.

Net Interest, Finance and Other Costs

Net interest, finance and other costs were $10.0m for the third quarter ended December 27, 2020 compared to $5.8m for the third quarter ended December 29, 2019. The increase was driven by higher interest charges on the Term Loan Facility of $3.3m, and $1.1m attributable to the acceleration of unamortized costs in connection with the Refinancing Amendment. Excluding the impact of interest on lease liabilities of $2.4m for the third quarter ended December 27, 2020 and $2.1m for the third quarter ended December 29, 2019, interest charges increased by $3.9m as a result of a higher average interest rate and higher gross borrowings from the comparative quarter.

Income Taxes

Income tax expense was $36.3m for the third quarter ended December 27, 2020 compared to income tax expense of $37.6m for the third quarter ended December 29, 2019. For the third quarter ended December 27, 2020, the effective and statutory tax rates were 25.3% and 25.4%, respectively, compared to 24.2% and 25.5% for the third quarter ended December 29, 2019. Given our global operations, the effective tax rate is largely impacted by our profit or loss in taxable jurisdictions relative to the applicable tax rates.

Net Income

Net income for the third quarter ended December 27, 2020 was $107.0m compared to $118.0m for the third quarter ended December 29, 2019, driven by the factors described above.

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 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:

•the COVID-19 pandemic beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020;

•timing of store openings;

•launch and expansion of international e-commerce sites;

•timing and extent of demand generation activities, including in-channel marketing;

•increased manufacturing flexibility through a shift to in-house production, which has an impact on the timing of wholesale order shipments and customer demand;

•timing of end-consumer purchasing in the DTC segment and the availability of new products;

•successful execution of global pricing strategy;

•shift in mix of revenue from wholesale to DTC, which has impacted the seasonality of our financial performance;

Canada Goose Holdings Inc. Page 25 of 48

•shift in geographic mix of sales to increase sales outside of Canada;

•fluctuation of foreign currencies relative to the Canadian dollar;

•political disruptions in Hong Kong beginning in June 2019;

•protests in many North American cities beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2021; and

•PPE production beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2021.

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;

•costs incurred and relief received from government programs as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020;

•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 negative and reduced net income in our seasonally low-revenue first and fourth quarters, respectively;

•impact of foreign exchange;

•fluctuations in average cost of borrowings to address growing net 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 secondary offerings of shares, the Baffin acquisition, and amendments to long-term debt agreements; and

•the proportion of taxable income in non-Canadian jurisdictions.

NON-IFRS FINANCIAL MEASURES

The Company uses certain non-IFRS financial measures in this document and other documents, including EBIT, adjusted EBIT, adjusted EBIT margin, EBITDAR, adjusted EBITDAR, adjusted net (loss) income, adjusted net (loss) income per basic and diluted share, constant currency revenue, net debt, net debt leverage, net working capital, net working capital turnover, and free operating cash flow. 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. 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.

These non-IFRS measures exclude the impact of certain non-cash items and certain other adjustments related to events that are non-recurring or unusual in nature, including the COVID-19 pandemic, that we believe are not reflective of our ongoing operations and 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.

For the three quarters ended December 27, 2020, we believe that identifying certain costs directly resulting from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and excluding these amounts from our calculation of the non-IFRS measures described above helps management and investors assess the impact of COVID-19 on our business as well as our general economic performance during the period. During the three quarters ended December 27, 2020, these primarily comprised overhead costs recognized during the temporary closure of our manufacturing facilities and temporary store closure costs including depreciation and interest expenses. These were partially offset by rent concessions and government subsidies recognized during the period.

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 the Revenue section of

Canada Goose Holdings Inc. Page 27 of 48

the “Results of Operations” for a reconciliation of reported revenue and revenue on a constant currency basis.

Net debt and net debt leverage

We define net debt as total indebtedness, net of cash, and net debt leverage as the ratio of net debt to adjusted EBITDAR, measured on a trailing 52 or 53-week period. We use, and believe that certain investors and analysts use, these non-IFRS financial measures to determine the Company’s financial leverage and ability to meet its debt obligations. See “Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources - Indebtedness” below for a table providing the calculation of net debt and discussion of net debt leverage.

Net working capital and net working capital turnover

We define net working capital as current assets, net of cash, minus current liabilities, excluding the Short-term Borrowings and current portion of lease liabilities. Net working capital turnover is the ratio of average net working capital to revenue, both measured on a trailing 52 or 53-week period. We use, and believe that certain investors and analysts use, this information to assess the Company’s liquidity and management of net working capital resources. See “Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources” below for a table providing the calculation of net working capital.

Free operating cash flow

We define free operating cash flow as net cash flows from (used in) operating activities plus net cash flows from (used in) investing activities, minus principal payments on lease liabilities. We use, and believe that certain investors and analysts use, this information to assess the Company’s financial leverage and cash available for repayment of borrowings and other financing activities and as an indicator of operational financial performance. See “Cash Flows” below for a table providing the free operating cash flow balance for the quarter.

(d)Total government subsidies globally of $6.4m and $27.1m were recognized in the third and three quarters ended December 27, 2020, respectively. These subsidies were recorded as a reduction to the associated wage costs which the Company incurred; as a result government subsidies were recorded as a reduction to excess overhead costs from temporary closure of manufacturing facilities ($nil and $1.3m), temporary store closure costs (less than $0.1m and $1.4m), and restructuring expense ($nil and $0.4m), for the third and three quarters ended December 27, 2020, respectively.

Cash Requirements

Our primary need for liquidity is to fund net working capital, capital expenditures, 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 our Short-term Borrowings, the Revolving Facility, and the Trade accounts receivable factoring program to provide short-term liquidity and to have funds available for net 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 earlier in the year.

Cash flows from operating activities

Cash from operating activities was $249.3m for the three quarters ended December 27, 2020 compared to $81.7m for the three quarters ended December 29, 2019. The increase in cash from operating activities of $167.6m was driven by favourable changes in working capital due to a decrease in inventories resulting from limited production offset by lower sales in fiscal 2021.

Canada Goose Holdings Inc. Page 32 of 48

Cash from operating activities was $332.6m for the third quarter ended December 27, 2020 compared to $262.7m for the third quarter ended December 29, 2019. The increase in cash from operating activities of $69.9m was driven by favourable changes in working capital resulting from a decrease in inventories as described above.

Cash flows used in investing activities

Cash used in investing activities was $21.4m for the three quarters ended December 27, 2020 compared to $46.5m for the three quarters ended December 29, 2019. The decrease in cash used in investing activities of $25.1m was due to the extension of payment terms for capital expenditures on retail store construction and investments in information technology for the three quarters ended December 27, 2020.

Cash used in investing activities was $12.6m for the third quarter ended December 27, 2020 compared to $20.7m for the third quarter ended December 29, 2019. The decrease in cash used in investing activities of $8.1m was due to the extension of payment terms as described above for the third quarter ended December 27, 2020.

Cash flows from (used in) financing activities

Cash generated from financing activities was $214.3m for the three quarters ended December 27, 2020 compared to cash used in financing activities of $52.1m for the three quarters ended December 29, 2019. The increase in cash generated from financing activities of $266.4m was driven by $254.6m of higher gross borrowings due to the Term Loan Refinancing Amendment and $38.7m of payments for the purchase and cancellation of subordinate voting shares in fiscal 2020. The increase was partially offset by $10.7m in higher principal paid on lease liabilities.

Cash used in financing activities was $3.3m for the third quarter ended December 27, 2020 compared to $204.0m for the third quarter ended December 29, 2019. The decrease in cash used in financing activities of $200.7m was driven by $216.4m of higher gross borrowings as described above.

Free operating cash flow increased to $200.1m for the three quarters ended December 27, 2020 from $18.1m for the three quarters ended December 29, 2019 due to improved cash flows from operating and investing activities as described above, partially offset by higher principal paid on lease liabilities.

Free operating cash flow increased to $309.6m for the third quarter ended December 27, 2020 from $234.5m for the third quarter ended December 29, 2019 due to the factors described above.

As at December 27, 2020, net debt was $184.8m compared to $296.5m as at December 29, 2019. The decrease of $111.7m was driven by a significant improvement in our cash position of $397.0m, partially offset by higher borrowings of $237.1m under the Term Loan Facility due to the Refinancing Amendment and an increase of $41.2m in lease liabilities. Net debt leverage(1) as at December 27, 2020 was 0.6 times adjusted EBITDAR.

Net debt as at December 27, 2020 was $184.8m compared to $355.5m as at March 29, 2020. The decrease in net debt of $170.7m was driven by the significant increase in cash of $437.3m, partially offset by higher borrowings of $226.6m under the Term Loan Facility due to the Refinancing Amendment and an increase of $33.0m in lease liabilities.

Short-term Borrowings

On July 18, 2019, a subsidiary of the Company in Greater China entered into an uncommitted loan facility in the amount of RMB 160.0m. The facility includes a non-financial bank guarantee facility in the amount of RMB 10.0m. The term of each draw on the loan will be one, three or six months or such other period as agreed upon and shall not exceed twelve months (including any extension or rollover). The interest rate is equal to 105% of the applicable People's Bank of China Benchmark Lending Rate and payable at one, three or six months, depending on the term of each draw. The facility is guaranteed by the Company and proceeds drawn on the facility will be used to support working capital requirements. As at December 27, 2020, the Company had $7.0m owing on the facility (December 29, 2019 and March 29, 2020 - $nil).

Revolving Facility

The Company has an agreement with a syndicate of lenders for a senior secured asset-based Revolving Facility consisting of (i) a revolving credit facility in the amount of $417.5m (the

Canada Goose Holdings Inc. Page 34 of 48

“Existing Revolving Facility”) with an increase in commitments to $467.5m during the peak season (June 1 - November 30) (February 24, 2020 to May 25, 2020 - $467.5m with an increase to $517.5m during the peak season, May 10, 2019 to February 23, 2020 - $300.0m with an increase to $350.0m during the peak season), and (ii) the FILO Revolving Facility in the amount of $50.0m (the “FILO Revolving Facility”). 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. Amounts owing under the Revolving Facility can be drawn in Canadian dollars, U.S. dollars, euros, British pounds sterling or other currencies. The Revolving Facility matures on June 3, 2024 and the FILO Revolving Facility matures on May 25, 2021. Amounts owing under the Revolving Facility may be borrowed, repaid and re-borrowed for general corporate purposes.

Loans under the Revolving Facility, at our option, may be maintained from time to time as (a) Prime Rate Loans, which bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for Prime Rate Loans plus the Prime Rate, (b) Banker’s Acceptances funded on a discounted proceeds basis given the published discount rate plus a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for stamping fees, (c) ABR Loans, which bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for ABR Loans plus the ABR, (d) European Base Rate Loans, which bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for European Base Rate Loans plus the European Base Rate, (e) LIBOR Loans, which bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for LIBOR Loans plus the LIBOR Rate or (f) EURIBOR Loans, which bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for EURIBOR Loans plus the applicable EURIBOR.

A commitment fee will be charged on the average daily unused portion of the Revolving Facility of 0.25% per annum if average utilization under the Revolving Facility is greater than 50% or 0.375% if average utilization under the Revolving Facility is less than 50%. A letter of credit fee, with respect to standby letters of credit, will accrue on the aggregate face amount of outstanding letters of credit under the Revolving Facility equal to the Applicable Margin for LIBOR Loans, and, with respect to trade or commercial letters of credit, 50% of the then Applicable Margin on LIBOR Loans. A fronting fee will be charged on the aggregate face amount of outstanding letters of credit equal to 0.125% per annum. In addition, we pay the administrative agent under the Revolving Facility a monitoring fee of one thousand dollars per month.

As at December 27, 2020, December 29, 2019 and March 29, 2020, the Company had repaid all amounts owing on the revolving facility and related deferred financing charges in the amounts of $1.9m, $1.5m, and $1.7m, respectively, were included in other long-term liabilities. The Revolving Facility contains financial and non-financial covenants which could impact the Company’s ability to draw funds. As at and during the three quarters ended December 27, 2020, the Company was in compliance with all covenants.

The Company had unused borrowing capacity available under the Revolving Facility of $256.2m as at December 27, 2020 (December 29, 2019 - $294.5m, March 29, 2020 - $226.6m).

As at December 27, 2020, the Company had letters of credit outstanding under the Revolving Facility of $5.3m (December 29, 2019 - $5.5m, March 29, 2020 - $5.7m).

Amendments to Revolving Facility

On May 26, 2020, the Company entered into a further amendment to the Revolving Facility to increase its ability to borrow against the borrowing base by up to $50.0m. Borrowings under the Existing Revolving Facility were transferred to the FILO Revolving Facility on the transaction date and future amounts are drawn in priority on 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 matures on May 25, 2021 and upon maturity, the credit commitments on the Existing Revolving Facility will be restored, resulting in no net change in aggregate commitments under the Revolving Facility. Transaction costs are amortized over the term of the facility.

Term Loan Facility

The Company has a senior secured loan agreement with a syndicate of lenders that is secured on a split collateral basis alongside the Revolving Facility, with an aggregate principal amount owing of US$300.0m. The Term Loan Facility bears interest at a rate of LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 4.25%, provided that LIBOR may not be less than 0.75%, payable quarterly in arrears. The Term Loan Facility matures on October 7, 2027 and US$0.8m of the principal amount is repayable quarterly beginning on March 31, 2021.

As the Term Loan Facility is denominated in U.S. dollars, the Company remeasures the outstanding balance in Canadian dollars at each balance sheet date. As at December 27, 2020, we had $385.9m aggregate principal amount outstanding under the Term Loan Facility (December 29, 2019 - $148.8m, March 29, 2020 - $159.3m). The difference in amounts in these periods is the result of the change in the CAD:USD exchange rate.

Voluntary prepayments of amounts owing under the Term Loan Facility may be made at any time without premium or penalty (except LIBOR breakage costs and a call premium in the case of certain repricing events prior to April 7, 2021), but once repaid may not be reborrowed. The Company has pledged substantially all of its assets as collateral for the Term Loan Facility. The Term Loan Facility contains financial and non-financial covenants. As at and during the three quarters ended December 27, 2020, the Company was in compliance with all covenants.

Amendment to the Term Loan Facility

On October 7, 2020, the Company entered into a Refinancing Amendment to the Term Loan Facility (the “Refinancing Amendment”) to increase the aggregate principal amount to US$300.0m from US$113.8m. The Company accounted for the amendment as a debt extinguishment due to the significant changes to the terms. As a result, deferred financing costs of $1.1 million on the existing Term Loan Facility were written-off. In connection with the amendment, the Company incurred transaction costs of US$4.7m and an original issue discount of US$3.0m, which are being amortized using the effective interest rate method over the new term to maturity.

Lease Liabilities

The Company had $260.9m (December 29, 2019 - $219.7m, March 29, 2020 - $227.9m) of lease liabilities as at December 27, 2020, of which $44.3m (December 29, 2019 - $33.8m, March 29, 2020 - $35.9m) are due within one year. Lease liabilities represent the discounted amount of future payments under leases for right-of-use assets.

Capital Management

The Company manages its capital, which consists of equity (subordinate voting shares and multiple voting shares), Short-term Borrowings, and long-term debt (the Revolving Facility and the Term Loan Facility), with the objectives of safeguarding sufficient net working capital(1) over the annual operating cycle and providing sufficient financial resources to grow operations to meet long-term consumer demand. Management targets a ratio of trailing 52 or 53-week period adjusted EBITDAR(1) to net debt(1), reflecting the seasonal change in the business as net working capital builds through the second fiscal quarter. The Board of Directors of the Company monitors the Company’s capital management on a regular basis. We 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.

As at December 27, 2020, we had additional liabilities which included provisions for warranty, sales returns, asset retirement obligations, and deferred income tax liabilities. 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. The Company in Europe also entered into an agreement to factor, on a limited recourse basis, certain of its trade accounts receivable up to a limit of €20.0m in exchange for advanced funding equal to 100% of the principal value of the invoice. Refer to 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 December 27, 2020.

Letter of guarantee facility

On April 14, 2020, Canada Goose Inc. entered into a letter of guarantee facility with HSBC Bank Canada in the amount of $10.0m. Letters of guarantee are available for terms of up to twelve months and will be charged a fee equal to 1.2% 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 shall immediately reimburse the issuing bank for amounts drawn on issued letters of guarantees. As at December 27, 2020, the Company had $3.8m outstanding in connection with our leases.

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). As at February 1, 2021, there were 59,334,399 subordinate voting shares issued and outstanding, and 51,004,076 multiple voting shares issued and outstanding.

As at February 1, 2021, there were 2,608,296 options and 137,666 restricted share units outstanding under the Company’s equity incentive plans, of which 815,608 options were vested as of such date. Each option is exercisable for one subordinate voting share. We expect that vested 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 currency 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. As at December 27, 2020, accounts receivable totaling approximately $26.3m (December 29, 2019 - $68.3m, March 29, 2020 - $20.1m) were insured, under a maximum credit limit of $30.0m. Accounts receivable as at December 27, 2020 included $3.6m of receivables from government authorities related to PPE sales which were not insured.

Credit insurance is subject to continuous review by the insurer and can be reduced or eliminated if, in the view of the insurer, the customer's credit worthiness has deteriorated. Upon receiving notification of credit insurance limit modifications, credit insurance remains in place for 60 days.

Canada Goose Holdings Inc. Page 38 of 48

During the three quarters ended December 27, 2020, the Company experienced significant reductions in the market availability of credit insurance for a number of its customers.

Complementary to the third party insurance, the Company routinely assesses the financial strength of its customers through a combination of third party financial reports, credit monitoring, publicly available information, and direct communication with those customers. The Company establishes payment terms with customers to mitigate credit risk and continues to closely monitor its accounts receivable credit risk exposure.

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 December 27, 2020, customer deposits of $5.8m (December 29, 2019 - $5.6m, March 29, 2020 - $2.1m) were included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

Trade accounts receivable factoring program

On December 23, 2019, a subsidiary of the Company in Europe entered into an agreement to factor, on a limited recourse basis, certain of its trade accounts receivable up to a limit of €20.0m 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 EURIBOR or LIBOR 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 three quarters ended December 27, 2020, the Company received cash proceeds from the sale of trade accounts receivable with carrying values of $15.8m which were derecognized from the Company's statement of financial position. Fees of less than $0.1m were incurred during the three quarters ended December 27, 2020 (three quarters ended December 29, 2019 - $0.1m) and included in net interest, finance and other costs in the statement of income. As at December 27, 2020, the outstanding amount of trade accounts receivable derecognized from the Company’s statement of financial position, but which the Company continued to service, was $6.0m (December 29, 2019 - $6.4m, March 29, 2020 - $2.4m).

Foreign exchange risk

Foreign exchange risk in operating cash flows

Our Interim Financial Statements are expressed in Canadian dollars, but a portion of the Company’s net assets are denominated in foreign currencies, primarily U.S. dollars, euros, British pounds sterling, Swiss francs, Chinese yuan, and Hong Kong dollars through its foreign operations in the U.S., U.K., France, Switzerland, Hong Kong, and China. Furthermore, as our business in Greater China grows, transactions in Chinese yuan and Hong Kong dollar will 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. As a result, we are exposed to foreign currency translation gains and losses. 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. Appreciating foreign currencies relative to the Canadian dollar 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 denominated purchases as a result of changes in U.S. dollar exchange rates. A depreciating Canadian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar 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 will have the opposite impact.

Canada Goose Holdings Inc. Page 40 of 48

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 Swedish krona exchange rates for revenues and purchases. Certain forward foreign exchange contracts were designated at inception and accounted for as cash flow hedges. The operating hedge program for the fiscal year ending March 28, 2021 was initiated during the fourth quarter of the 2019 fiscal year.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company recognized $1.7m of unrealized losses on foreign exchange hedges deemed ineffective as a result of uncertainties in our future cash flows among our foreign operations.

The Company recognized the following unrealized gains and losses in the fair value of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges in other comprehensive income:

For the third and three quarters ended December 27, 2020, losses of $1.9m and $1.9m, respectively (for the third and three quarters ended December 29, 2019 - gains of $0.2m and $0.8m, respectively) were reclassified from other comprehensive income to SG&A expenses on derivatives designated as cash flow hedges.

For the third and three quarters ended December 27, 2020, unrealized gains of $3.7m and $4.9m, respectively (for the third and three quarters ended December 29, 2019 - an unrealized loss of $1.7m and an unrealized gain of $0.1m, respectively) on forward exchange contracts that were not treated as hedges were recognized in SG&A expenses in the statement of income.

Foreign currency forward exchange contracts outstanding as at December 27, 2020 related to operating cash flows were:

(in millions) Aggregate Amounts Currency
Forward contract to purchase Canadian dollars US$ 98.2 U.S. dollars
69.4 euros

Foreign exchange risk on borrowings

Amounts available for borrowing under Short-term Borrowings is denominated in Chinese renminbi. Based on our outstanding balances of $7.0m under Short-term Borrowings as at December 27, 2020, a $0.01 depreciation in value of the Canadian dollar compared to the Chinese renminbi would have resulted in a decrease in our pre-tax income of $0.4m solely as a result of that exchange rate fluctuation’s effect on the debt.

Amounts available for borrowing under the Term Loan Facility and part of our Revolving Facility are denominated in U.S. dollars. Based on our outstanding balances of $385.9m (US$300.0m) under the Term Loan Facility as at December 27, 2020, 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 $3.0m solely as a result of that exchange rate fluctuation’s effect on the debt.

The Company hedges a portion of its exposure to foreign currency exchange risk on principal and interest payments related to its U.S. dollar denominated Term Loan Facility.

For the third and three quarters ended December 27, 2020, unrealized losses of $14.7m and $16.4m, respectively (for the third and three quarters ended December 29, 2019 - an unrealized loss of $0.3m and an unrealized gain $0.7m, respectively) in the fair value of the long-dated forward exchange contract related to a portion of the term loan balance were recognized in SG&A expenses in the statement of income.

The Company enters into derivative transactions to hedge a portion of its exposure to foreign currency exchange risk and interest rate risk related to the Term Loan Facility denominated in U.S. dollars. Following the refinancing of the Term Loan Facility on October 7, 2020, the cross-currency swap designated and accounted for as a cash flow hedge in relation to the previous term loan was deemed ineffective; however, the other designated hedge transactions remained effective.

On October 30, 2020, the Company terminated its existing derivative contracts associated with the previous Term Loan Facility and entered into new derivative transactions to better align with the refinancing amendment to the Term Loan Facility. The Company entered into a five-year interest rate swap by selling US$270.0m, floating rate debt bearing interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin 4.25% as measured on the trade date, provided that LIBOR may not be less than 0.75%, for a fixed rate debt bearing interest at a rate of 5.20%. The interest rate swap was designated at inception and accounted for as a cash flow hedge, and to the extent that the hedge remains effective, unrealized gains and losses will be included in other comprehensive income until reclassified to the statement of income as the hedged interest payments and principal repayments (or periodic remeasurements) impact net income.

The Company also entered into a five-year forward exchange contract by selling $368.5m and receiving US$270.0m as measured on the trade date, to fix the foreign exchange risk on a portion of the Term Loan Facility borrowings. Unrealized gains and losses in the fair value of the forward contract are recognized in SG&A expenses in the statement of income, which offset the unrealized gains and losses recognized on the principal of the Term Loan Facility that are also recognized in SG&A.

Interest rate risk

We are exposed to interest rate risk primarily related to the effect of interest rate changes on borrowings outstanding under our Short-term Borrowings, Revolving Facility, and Term Loan Facility. As at December 27, 2020, the Company had $7.0m outstanding on Short-term Borrowings and $385.9m under the Term Loan Facility. As at December 27, 2020, the Company had repaid all amounts owing on the Revolving Facility. These currently bear interest rates at 4.26% and 5.00%, respectively. Based on the weighted average amount of outstanding borrowings on our Short-term Borrowings during the three quarters ended December 27, 2020, a 1.00% increase in the average interest rate on our borrowings would have increased interest expense by less than $0.1m (for the three quarters ended December 29, 2019 - less than $0.1m). Correspondingly, a 1.00% increase in the average interest rate would have increased interest expense on the Revolving Facility and Term Loan Facility by $1.1m and $1.7m, respectively (for the three quarters ended December 29, 2019 - $0.9m and $1.1m, respectively). Interest rate risk on the Term Loan Facility is partially mitigated by cross-currency swap hedges. The impact on future interest expense as a result of future changes in interest rates will depend largely on the gross amount of our borrowings at that time.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Our Interim 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 significant accounting policies are more fully described in the notes to our Annual Financial Statements and Interim 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 significant impact on the amounts recognized in the Interim 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 channel 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.

Canada Goose Holdings Inc. Page 45 of 48

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, right-of- use assets and property, plant and equipment). We are required to use judgment in determining the grouping of assets to identify their cash generating units (“CGU”) for the purposes of testing fixed 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 impairment testing, CGUs are grouped at the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes. For the purpose of intangible assets’ impairment testing, intangible assets are assessed at the CGU level. 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 consolidated statements of income and comprehensive 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 balance sheet date are: number of jackets expected to require repair or replacement; proportion to be repaired versus replaced; period in which the warranty claim is expected to occur; cost of repair; cost of jacket replacement; and risk-free rate used to discount the

Canada Goose Holdings Inc. Page 46 of 48

provision to present value. We review our inputs to this estimate on a quarterly basis to ensure the provision reflects the most current information regarding our products.

CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Standards issued and adopted

In May 2020, the IASB issued an amendment to IFRS 16, Leases exempting lessees from determining whether COVID-19 related rent concessions are lease modifications. The amendment is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after June 1, 2020 and earlier application is permitted. In accordance with the guidance issued, the Company adopted the amendment effective March 30, 2020 and elected not to treat COVID-19 related rent concessions as lease modifications.

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 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. The amendment is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. Earlier application is permitted. The Company is assessing the potential impact of the amendment.

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 December 27, 2020 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.

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

Canada Goose Holdings Inc. Page 47 of 48

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.

There has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the three quarters ended December 27, 2020 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations of Controls and Procedures

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.

earningspressreleaseimage1a.jpg

Third Quarter Fiscal 2021 Highlights (in Canadian dollars):

•Total revenue $474.0m

•Net income $107.0m, or $0.96 per diluted share

•Non-IFRS adjusted EBIT margin 33.3%

•Non-IFRS adjusted net income per diluted share $1.01

TORONTO, ON (February 4, 2021) - Canada Goose Holdings Inc. (“Canada Goose” or the “Company”) (NYSE:GOOS, TSX:GOOS) today announced financial results for the third quarter ended December 27, 2020.

“The global strength of our brand and digital business has returned Canada Goose to growth in our biggest quarter. Through HUMANATURE, we are also rapidly advancing our sustainability and purpose-based commitments,” said Dani Reiss, President & CEO. “While we remain in an uncertain world, we are very encouraged by our strong momentum as we finish the fiscal year.”

Third Quarter Fiscal 2021 Business Highlights (compared to Third Quarter Fiscal 2020)

•Global e-Commerce revenue increased by 39.3%.

•DTC revenue in Mainland China increased by 41.7%.

•Total revenue increased for the first time since the onset of the pandemic.

Third Quarter Fiscal 2021 Results (compared to Third Quarter Fiscal 2020)

•Total revenue was $474.0m from $452.1m.

•DTC revenue was $299.4m from $301.8m driven by e-Commerce growth and continued store expansion in Mainland China, offset by lower retail revenue due to COVID-19 disruptions globally.

•Wholesale revenue was $160.8m from $145.3m. The increase was a result of the later timing of shipments as requested from partners and international distributors relative to the comparative quarter.

•Other revenue was $13.8m from $5.0m. The increase was driven by PPE sales in support of COVID-19 response efforts.

•Gross profit was $316.4m, a gross margin of 66.8%, compared to $298.4m and 66.0%. The increase in gross profit was attributable to revenue growth and $4.8m of government subsidies. The increase in gross margin was a result of higher DTC and Wholesale gross margins, partially offset by a lower Other gross margin.

•DTC gross margin of 77.9%, compared to 75.1%. The increase was attributable to higher pricing and favourable geographic mix (+210 bps). Gross margin was also positively impacted by $1.6m (+50 bps) of government subsidies.

•Wholesale gross margin of 51.5%, compared to 48.5%. The increase was attributable to the net impact of higher pricing and the positive impact of volume (+180 bps) driven by parkas, partially offset by the unfavourable impact of a higher proportion of distributor sales (-80 bps). Gross margin was also positively impacted by $3.1m (+200 bps) of government subsidies.

•Other segment gross profit was $0.3m from $1.3m. PPE gross loss and gross margin were $(0.7)m and (6.5)%.

•Operating income was $153.3m, an operating margin of 32.3%, compared to $161.4m and an operating margin of 35.7%.

•DTC operating margin of 55.0%, compared to 56.0%. The decrease was due to lower retail profitability from COVID-19 disruptions. This was partially offset by a higher gross margin and the positive impact of e-Commerce growth.

•Wholesale operating margin of 42.9%, compared to 38.0%. The increase was attributable to a higher gross margin and cost reduction initiatives, supplemented by $3.1m of government subsidies.

•Other operating loss was $(80.4)m from $(62.7)m. The increase was attributable to higher operating costs including an $8.4m increase in marketing costs, and $3.3m of product development costs. In addition, there were $7.1m of unfavourable foreign exchange losses partially offset by $1.3m of government subsidies.

•Net income was $107.0m, or $0.96 per diluted share, compared to $118.0m, or $1.07 per diluted share.

•Non-IFRS adjusted EBIT was $157.9m, an adjusted EBIT margin of 33.3%, compared to $163.8m and 36.2%.

•Non-IFRS adjusted net income was $111.9m, or $1.01 per diluted share, compared to $119.7m, or $1.08 per diluted share.

•Cash was $469.0m as at quarter end, compared to $72.0m, alongside $256.2m of available borrowing capacity in the undrawn revolving facility. The increase in cash was driven by positive free operating cash flow and refinancing proceeds.

Outlook

Given ongoing COVID-19 disruptions and uncertainties, the Company is not providing an outlook for fiscal 2021. As of the date of this release, 7 of 28 Canada Goose retail stores, representing 25% of the network, are closed.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures

This press release includes references to certain non-IFRS financial measures such as adjusted EBIT, adjusted EBIT margin, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share. 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. 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. Definitions and reconciliations of non-IFRS measures to the nearest IFRS measure can be found in our MD&A. Such reconciliations can also be found in this press release under “Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Measures”.

(b)Unrealized gains and losses on the translation of the Term Loan Facility from USD to CAD, net of the effect of derivative transactions entered into to hedge a portion of the exposure to foreign currency exchange risk.

(c)Costs incurred for the transition of logistics, warehousing, and freight forwarding agencies to enhance our global distribution structure.

(d)Total government subsidies globally of $6.4m and $27.1m were recognized in the third and three quarters ended December 27, 2020, respectively. These subsidies were recorded as a reduction to the associated wage costs which the Company incurred; as a result government subsidies were recorded as a reduction to excess overhead costs from temporary closure of manufacturing facilities ($nil and $1.3m), temporary store closure costs (less than $0.1m and $1.4m), and restructuring expense ($nil and $0.4m), for the third and three quarters ended December 27, 2020, respectively. The benefit of $6.4m and $26.7m of government subsidies therefore remained in adjusted EBIT as a reduction to the associated wage costs for the third and three quarters ended December 27, 2020, respectively.

(e)Costs incurred during pre-opening periods for new retail stores, including depreciation on right-of-use assets.

(h)Pre-store opening costs incurred in (e) above plus $0.1m and $0.6m of interest expense on lease liabilities for new retail stores during pre-opening periods in the third and three quarters ended December 27, 2020 (third and three quarters ended December 29, 2019 - $0.4m and $0.9m, respectively).

(i)The non-cash unamortized costs accelerated in connection with the amendments to the Term Loan Facility on October 7, 2020 and May 10, 2019.
