      8  PENNEY INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS LLC  Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements  (Unaudited)    1. Basis of Presentation and Consolidation     These Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting  principles in the United States. The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited), in the Company's opinion,  include all material adjustments necessary for a fair presentation and should be read in conjunction with the Audited  Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2022. The same accounting policies  are followed to prepare quarterly financial statements as are followed in preparing annual financial statements. A description of  such significant accounting policies is included in the notes to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements.     The Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) present the results of the Company and our subsidiaries. All significant  inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.  Certain amounts were reclassified to conform  with current year presentation. Because of the seasonal nature of the retail business, operating results for interim periods are not  necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.    Fiscal Year  The Company’s fiscal year consists of the 52-week period ending on the Saturday closest to January 31. As used herein, “three  months ended July 30, 2022” refers to the 13- week period ended July 30, 2022 and “three months ended July 31, 2021” refers  to the 13- week period ended July 31, 2021. Fiscal 2022 and 2021 consist of the 52-week periods ending January 28, 2023 and  January 29, 2022, respectively.    Global COVID-19 Pandemic  The global COVID-19 pandemic which began in March 2020 has had, and continues to have, an impact on the Company. The  full impact of the pandemic will continue to depend on future developments, including the continued spread and duration of the  pandemic, the emergence of future variant strains of COVID-19, the availability and distribution of effective medical treatments  or vaccines as well as any related federal, state, or local governmental orders, restrictions, or mandates. The Company did not  experience sustained store closures due to COVID-19 from January 30, 2022 to July 30, 2022.    2. Revenue    Contracts with customers primarily consist of sales of merchandise and services at the point of sale, sales of gift cards to a  customer for a future purchase, customer loyalty rewards that provide discount rewards to customers based on purchase activity,  and certain licensing and profit sharing arrangements involving the use of the Company's intellectual property by others.   Revenue includes Total net sales and Credit income and other.  Net sales are categorized by merchandise product groupings as  the Company believes it best depicts the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flow.    The components of Total net sales for the six months ended July 30, 2022 and July 31, 2021 were as follows:      Six Months Ended  Six Months Ended    July 30, 2022  July 31, 2021  Women's apparel, accessories and footwear  36 % 35 %  Men's apparel, accessories and footwear  25 % 25 %  Jewelry, Handbags, and Beauty  13 % 16 %  Home, services and other  18 % 15 %  Kid's apparel, footwear and toys  8 % 9 %  Total net sales  100 % 100 %
