PART I

Item 1.   Business.

a) General history of business.

Registrant (also referred to as the “Company”) is the parent corporation of Tiffany and Company (“Tiffany”). Charles Lewis Tiffany founded Tiffany’s business in 1837.

b) Financial information about industry segments.

Registrant’s segment information for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005 is stated in Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data (see note R. “Segment Information”).

U.S. Retail

New York Flagship Store. Tiffany’s New York Flagship store on Fifth Avenue accounts for a significant portion of the Company’s sales and is the focal point for marketing and public relations efforts. Approximately 9% of total Company net sales for Fiscal 2006 and approximately 10% of total Company net sales for Fiscal 2005 and 2004 were attributable to the New York Flagship store’s retail sales.

U.S. Branch Stores. On January 31, 2007, in addition to its New York Flagship store, Tiffany had 63 branch stores in the United States. Most of Tiffany’s U.S. branch stores display a representative selection of merchandise, but none of them maintains the extensive selection carried by the New York Flagship store.

Expansion of U.S. Retail Operations. Management currently contemplates opening new TIFFANY & CO. branch stores in the United States at the rate of approximately five to seven per year. Management regularly evaluates potential markets for new TIFFANY & CO. stores with a view to the demographics of the area to be served, consumer demand and the proximity of other luxury brands and existing TIFFANY & CO. locations. Management recognizes that over-saturation of any market could diminish the distinctive appeal of the TIFFANY & CO. brand, but believes that there are a significant number of locations remaining in the United States that meet the requirements of a TIFFANY & CO. location, particularly for 5,000 square foot format stores (see Item 2. Properties below for further information concerning U.S. Retail store leases).

Business-to-Business Sales Division. Tiffany’s Business Sales Division sales executives call on business clients throughout the United States, selling products drawn from the retail product line and items specially developed or sourced for the business market, including trophies and items designed for the particular customer. Price allowances are given to business account holders for certain purchases. Business Sales Division customers have typically purchased for business gift giving, employee service and achievement recognition awards, customer incentives and other purposes. Products and services are marketed through an organization of approximately 115 persons, through advertising in newspapers and business periodicals and through the publication of special catalogs.

Business with Mitsukoshi. On August 1, 2001, Registrant’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Tiffany & Co. Japan Inc. (“Tiffany-Japan”), entered into agreements (“Japan Agreement”) with Mitsukoshi Ltd. of Japan (“Mitsukoshi”). The Japan Agreement continued long-standing commercial relationships that Registrant and its affiliated companies have maintained with Mitsukoshi. The Japan Agreement expired as of January 31, 2007. Tiffany-Japan expects to renew the Japan Agreement on essentially the same economic terms and Mitsukoshi has agreed to do so. Management expects that a formal written agreement will be executed that will continue the relationship on a year-to-year basis. Pending a formal written agreement, Tiffany-Japan and Mitsukoshi are continuing to operate under the terms of the expired Japan Agreement.

In Fiscal 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively, total sales in Japan of TIFFANY & CO. merchandise represented 19%, 20% and 22% of Registrant’s net sales. Sales recorded in retail locations operated in connection with Mitsukoshi accounted for 9%, 10% and 12%, inclusive of the Tokyo Flagship store which represented 2%, 2% and 3%, of Registrant’s net sales in those years, respectively.

Tiffany-Japan has merchandising and marketing responsibilities in the operation of TIFFANY & CO. boutiques in Mitsukoshi’s stores and other locations throughout Japan. Mitsukoshi acts for Tiffany-Japan in the sale of merchandise. Tiffany-Japan owns the merchandise and recognizes as revenues the retail price charged to the ultimate consumer in Japan. Tiffany-Japan establishes retail prices, bears the risk of currency fluctuation, provides one or more brand managers in each boutique, controls merchandising and display within the boutiques, manages inventory and controls and funds all advertising and publicity programs with respect to TIFFANY & CO. merchandise. Mitsukoshi provides and maintains boutique facilities and assumes retail credit and certain other risks.

Mitsukoshi provides retail staff in “Standard Boutiques” and Tiffany-Japan provides retail staff in “Concession Boutiques.” At the end of Fiscal 2006, there were 8 Standard Boutiques and 10 Concession Boutiques operated with Mitsukoshi. See below for further information about the Tokyo Flagship store. Risk of inventory loss varies depending on whether the boutique is a Standard Boutique or a Concession Boutique. Mitsukoshi bears responsibility for loss or damage to the merchandise in Standard Boutiques and Tiffany-Japan bears the risk in Concession Boutiques.

Mitsukoshi retains a portion (the “basic portion”) of the net retail sales made in TIFFANY & CO. Boutiques. The basic portion varies depending on the type of Boutique and the retail price of the merchandise involved. The highest basic portion available to Mitsukoshi is 23% in a Standard Boutique and not less than 16% in a Concession Boutique.

Through Fiscal 2006, Tiffany-Japan has also paid Mitsukoshi an incentive fee of 5% of the amount by which boutique sales increase above “Target Sales” calculated on a per-boutique basis. Target Sales means a year-to-year increase that has been greater than the lesser of (i) 10% or (ii) a sales goal set by Tiffany-Japan.

Up until February 1, 2007, Mitsukoshi retained 3% of net sales made in premises indirectly owned by Tiffany-Japan in Tokyo’s Ginza shopping district where the TIFFANY & CO. Tokyo Flagship store is located. That arrangement expired on January 31, 2007.

International Internet Sales. The Company offers a selection of TIFFANY & CO. merchandise for purchase in England, Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland through its U.K. website at www.tiffany.com/uk . The Company also offers a selection of TIFFANY & CO. merchandise for purchase in Japan and Canada through websites at www.tiffany.co.jp and www.tiffany.ca. The scope and selection of merchandise offered for purchase on these International websites is comparable to the selection offered on the U.S. website (see U.S. Internet Sales below).

t i f f a n y & c o.
K - 8

International Wholesale Distribution. Selected TIFFANY & CO. merchandise is sold to independent distributors for resale in markets in the Central/South American, Caribbean, Canadian, Asia-Pacific, Russian and Middle Eastern regions. Such sales represented approximately 2% of net sales in Fiscal 2006. Management anticipates continued expansion of international wholesale distribution in these regions as markets are developed.

Expansion of International Retail Operations. Tiffany began its ongoing program of international expansion through proprietary retail stores in 1986 with the establishment of the London Flagship store. Registrant expects to continue to open TIFFANY & CO. stores in locations outside the United States and to selectively expand its channels of distribution in important markets around the world without compromising the long-term value of the TIFFANY & CO. trademark. However, the timing and success of this program will depend upon many factors, including Registrant’s ability to obtain suitable retail space on satisfactory economic terms and the extent of consumer demand for TIFFANY & CO. products in overseas markets. Such demand varies from market to market.

The Company’s commercial relationship with Mitsukoshi and Mitsukoshi’s ability to continue as a leading department store operator have been and will continue to be substantial factors in the Company’s continued success in Japan. At the end of Fiscal 2006, TIFFANY & CO. boutiques were located in 18 Mitsukoshi department stores and other retail locations operated with Mitsukoshi in Japan. Tiffany-Japan operates 4 free-standing stores and the Company operates 30 locations primarily in department stores other than Mitsukoshi, within Japan.

The arrangements with other Japanese department stores are substantially similar to the Company’s relationship with Mitsukoshi, with varying fees from store to store. In recent years, the Japanese department store industry has, in general, suffered declining sales. There is a risk that such financial difficulties will force consolidations or store closings. Should one or more Japanese department store operators elect or be required to close one or more stores now housing a TIFFANY & CO. boutique, the Company’s sales and earnings would be reduced while alternate premises were being obtained.

Other

This channel of distribution includes the consolidated results of existing businesses that sell merchandise under trademarks or tradenames other than TIFFANY & CO. In Fiscal 2004, the Company also initiated, through this channel of distribution, wholesale sales of diamonds that were found to be unsuitable for Tiffany’s needs.

Registrant believes that the sale of merchandise, under trademarks or tradenames other than TIFFANY & CO., offers an opportunity to achieve incremental growth in sales and earnings without diminishing the distinctive appeal of the TIFFANY & CO. brand. Businesses to be developed or acquired for this channel have been and will be chosen with a view to more fully exploit Registrant’s established infrastructure for distribution and manufacturing of luxury products, store development and brand management.

Little Switzerland, Inc. In October 2002, the Company, through a subsidiary, completed the acquisition of all the shares of Little Switzerland, Inc., a specialty retailer of brand name watches, jewelry, china, crystal and giftware. LITTLE SWITZERLAND currently operates 25 retail stores on 11 Caribbean islands (Bahamas (2); Cayman Islands (1); Puerto Rico (1); St. Thomas (4); St. Maarten/St. Martin (3); St. John (1); St. Kitts (1); Aruba (5); Curacao (1); Turks & Caicos(1); and Barbados (2)) and in Florida (Key West (2); and Sunrise (1)), and appeal primarily to tourists from the United States. Little Switzerland sells primarily non-TIFFANY brand products, but certain stores carry selected TIFFANY & CO. merchandise (see Item 2. Properties under LITTLE SWITZERLAND Retail Store Leases below for further information concerning LITTLE SWITZERLAND retail store leases).

Iridesse, Inc. In Fiscal 2004, the Company organized a new retail subsidiary, under the name Iridesse, Inc., to engage exclusively in the design and retail sale of pearl jewelry in the United States. In Fiscal 2004, Iridesse opened its first retail boutiques in Short Hills, New Jersey and McLean, Virginia. In Fiscal 2005, Iridesse opened stores in Schaumburg, Illinois; King of Prussia, Pennsylvania; White Plains, New York and Boca Raton, Florida. In Fiscal 2006, Iridesse opened stores in Thousand Oaks, California; Tampa, Aventura and Palm Beach Gardens, Florida; Oakbrook, Illinois; Boston, Massachusetts and Atlantic City, New Jersey (see Item 2.

Wholesale Diamond Sales. In Fiscal 2004, the Company commenced the sale of diamonds that were found unsuitable for Tiffany’s needs. Tiffany purchases parcels of rough diamonds, but not all the diamonds in a parcel are suitable for Tiffany’s production. In addition, after production not all polished diamonds are suitable for Tiffany jewelry. These diamonds that do not meet Tiffany’s quality standards

t i f f a n y & c o .

are sold to third parties through the Other channel of distribution. The Company’s objective from such sales is to recoup its original costs, thereby earning minimal, if any, gross margin on those transactions.

ADVERTISING AND PROMOTION

Registrant regularly advertises, primarily in newspapers and magazines, and periodically conducts product promotional events. In Fiscal 2006, 2005 and 2004, Registrant spent approximately $163.4 million, $137.5 million and $135.0 million, respectively, on worldwide advertising, which include costs for media, production, catalogs, promotional events and other related items.

Public Relations (promotional) activity is a significant aspect of Registrant’s business. Management believes that Tiffany’s image is enhanced by a program of charity sponsorships, grants and merchandise donations. Donations are also made to The Tiffany & Co. Foundation, a private foundation organized to support 501(c)(3) charitable organizations with efforts concentrated in arts education and preservation and environmental conservation. Tiffany also engages in a program of retail promotions and media activities to maintain consumer awareness of the Company and its products. Each year, Tiffany publishes its well-known Blue Book which showcases jewelry and other merchandise. John Loring, Tiffany’s Design Director, is the author of numerous books featuring TIFFANY & CO. products. Registrant considers these and other promotional efforts important in maintaining Tiffany’s image.

TRADEMARKS

The designations TIFFANY® and TIFFANY & CO.® are the principal trademarks of Tiffany, as well as serving as tradenames. Through its subsidiaries, the Company has obtained and is the proprietor of trademark registrations for TIFFANY and TIFFANY & CO., as well as the TIFFANY BLUE BOX® and the color TIFFANY BLUE® for a variety of product categories in the United States and in other countries.

Tiffany maintains a program to protect its trademarks and institutes legal action where necessary to prevent others either from registering or using marks which are considered to create a likelihood of confusion with the Company or its products.

Tiffany has been generally successful in such actions and management considers that its United States trademark rights in TIFFANY and TIFFANY & CO. are strong. However, use of the designation TIFFANY by third parties (often small companies) on unrelated goods or services, frequently transient in nature, may not come to the attention of Tiffany or may not rise to a level of concern warranting legal action.

Tiffany actively pursues those who counterfeit or sell counterfeit TIFFANY & CO. goods through civil action and cooperation with criminal law enforcement agencies. However, counterfeit TIFFANY & CO. goods remain available in many markets and the cost of enforcement is expected to continue to rise. In recent years, there has been an increase in the availability of counterfeit goods, predominantly silver jewelry, in various markets by street vendors and small retailers and on the Internet.

The continued availability of counterfeit goods within these various markets has the potential, in the long term, to devalue the TIFFANY brand.

In July 2004, Tiffany initiated a civil proceeding against eBay, Inc. in the Federal District Court for the Southern District of New York, alleging direct and contributory trademark infringement, unfair competition, false advertising and trademark dilution. Tiffany seeks damages and injunctive relief stemming from eBay’s alleged assistance and contribution to the offering for sale, advertising and promotion, in the United States, of counterfeit TIFFANY jewelry and any other jewelry or merchandise which bears the TIFFANY trademark and is dilutive or confusingly similar to the TIFFANY trademarks.

t i f f a n y & c o .
K - 1 2

Despite the general fame of the TIFFANY and TIFFANY & CO. name and mark for the Company’s products and services, Tiffany is not the sole person entitled to use the name TIFFANY in every category in every country of the world; third parties have registered the name TIFFANY in the United States in the food services category, and in a number of foreign countries in respect of certain product categories (including, in a few countries, the categories of fragrance, cosmetics, jewelry, clothing and tobacco products) under circumstances where Tiffany’s rights were not sufficiently clear under local law, and/or where management concluded that Tiffany’s foreseeable business interests did not warrant the expense of litigation.

DESIGNER LICENSES

Tiffany has been the sole licensee for jewelry designed by Elsa Peretti, Paloma Picasso and the late Jean Schlumberger since Fiscal 1974, 1980 and 1956, respectively.

In Fiscal 2005, Tiffany became the sole licensee for jewelry designed by the architect, Frank Gehry. The Gehry collection was made available for retail sale in the first quarter of Fiscal 2006. Merchandise designed by Mr. Gehry accounted for 1% of the Company’s net sales in Fiscal 2006.

Ms. Peretti and Ms. Picasso retain ownership of copyrights for their designs and of their trademarks and exercise approval rights with respect to important aspects of the promotion, display, manufacture and merchandising of their designs. Tiffany is required by contract to devote a portion of its advertising budget to the promotion of their respective products; each is paid a royalty by Tiffany for jewelry and other items designed by them and sold under their respective names. Written agreements exist between Ms. Peretti and Tiffany and between Ms. Picasso and Tiffany but may be terminated by either party following six months notice to the other party. Tiffany is the sole retail source for merchandise designed by Ms. Peretti worldwide; however, she has reserved by contract the right to appoint other distributors in markets outside the United States, Canada, Japan, Singapore, Australia, Italy, the United Kingdom, Switzerland and Germany. In Fiscal 1992, Tiffany acquired trademark and other rights necessary to sell the designs of the late Mr. Schlumberger under the TIFFANY-SCHLUMBERGER trademark.

The designs of Ms. Peretti accounted for 11%, 13% and 14% of the Company’s net sales in Fiscal 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Merchandise designed by Ms. Picasso accounted for 3% of the Company’s net sales in Fiscal 2006 and 4% of the Company’s net sales in both Fiscal 2005 and 2004. Registrant’s operating results could be adversely affected were it to cease to be a licensee of either of these designers or should its degree of exclusivity in respect of their designs be diminished.

MERCHANDISE PURCHASING, MANUFACTURING AND RAW MATERIALS

Merchandise offered for sale by the Company is supplied from Tiffany’s jewelry and silver goods manufacturing facilities in Cumberland and Cranston, Rhode Island; Pelham and Mount Vernon, New York; the hollowware manufacturing facility in Tiffany’s Retail Service Center and through purchases and consignments from others. It is Registrant’s long-term objective to continue its expansion of Tiffany’s internal manufacturing operations. However, it is not expected that Tiffany will ever manufacture all of its needs. Factors to be considered in its decision to outsource manufacturing include product quality, gross margin improvement, access to or mastery of various jewelry-making skills and technology, support for alternative capacity and the cost of capital investments.

t i f f a n y & c o .

The following table shows Tiffany’s sources of jewelry merchandise, based on cost, for the periods indicated:

						2006				2005				2004
Finished Goods produced by Tiffany*							58	%			65	%			63	%
Finished Goods purchased from others							42	%			35	%			37	%
							100	%			100	%			100	%

*Includes raw materials provided by Tiffany to subcontractors.

Almost all non-jewelry items are purchased from third-party vendors.

Purchases of Polished Gemstones. Gemstones and precious metals used in making Tiffany’s jewelry may be purchased from a variety of sources. Most purchases of such materials are from suppliers with which Tiffany enjoys long-standing relationships.

Products containing one or more diamonds of varying sizes, including diamonds used as accents, side-stones and center-stones, accounted for approximately 46%, 46% and 43% of Tiffany’s net sales in Fiscal 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Products containing one or more diamonds of one carat or larger accounted for 10%, 10% and 8% of net sales in each of those years, respectively.

Tiffany purchases cut diamonds principally from seven key vendors. Were trade relations between Tiffany and one or more of these vendors to be disrupted, the Company’s sales would be adversely affected in the short term until alternative supply arrangements could be established. Diamonds of one carat or greater that meet the quality demands of the Company, on a relative basis, are more difficult to acquire than smaller diamonds. Established sources for smaller stones would be more easily replaced in the event of a disruption in supply than could sources for larger stones.

Sourcing diamonds for the engagement business is increasingly difficult because of supply limitations; at times, Tiffany is not able to maintain a comprehensive assortment of diamonds in each retail location due to the broad assortment of sizes, colors, clarity grades and cuts demanded by customers.

Except as noted above, Tiffany believes that there are numerous alternative sources for gemstones and precious metals and that the loss of any single supplier would not have a material adverse effect on its operations.

Purchases of Rough Diamonds. Until Fiscal 2003, the Company did not purchase rough diamonds. In Fiscal 1999, the Company made a 14.7% equity investment ($70,636,000) in Aber Diamond Corporation (“Aber”), a publicly-traded company headquartered in Canada, by purchasing eight million unregistered shares of its common stock. In Fiscal 2004, the Company sold this investment. Aber holds a 40% interest in the Diavik Diamond Mine in Northwest Canada. Under the Company’s continuing diamond purchase agreement with Aber, Tiffany is obligated to purchase at least $50 million in diamonds annually, if available, (in assortments of diamonds expected to cut/polish to Tiffany’s quality standards) during the next seven years.

The supply and price of rough (uncut and unpolished) diamonds in the principal world markets have been and continue to be significantly influenced by a single entity, the Diamond Trading Company (the “DTC”), an affiliate of De Beers S.A., the Luxembourg-based holding company of the De Beers Group. However, the role of the DTC is rapidly changing and that change has greatly affected, and will continue to affect, traditional channels of supply in the markets for rough and cut diamonds. The DTC continues to supply a significant portion of the world market for rough, gem-quality diamonds, notwithstanding

t i f f a n y & c o .
K - 1 4

that its historical ability to control worldwide production supplies has been significantly diminished due to changing politics in diamond-producing countries and revised contractual arrangements with other diamond mine operators. Responding to pressure from the European Commission, in Fiscal 2005 the DTC entered into commitments for a three-year phase-out of purchases of rough diamonds from the world’s second largest producer, ALROSA Company Limited, which accounts for over 98% of Russian diamond production. Russia is the second largest diamond producing country in the world, in value, after Botswana. The DTC maintains separate arrangements to purchase and distribute diamonds produced in Botswana. The DTC’s three-year phase-out commitments with ALROSA are anticipated to make additional rough diamonds available for competitive bid. There is no assurance that Tiffany will be able to purchase such diamonds. The DTC no longer maintains a reserve of diamonds as a mechanism to control available supplies. Nonetheless, the DTC continues to exert a significant influence on the demand for polished diamonds through advertising and marketing efforts throughout the world and through the requirements it imposes on those who purchase rough diamonds from the DTC (“sight-holders”).

In Fiscal 2004, the Company made an investment in a joint venture that owns and operates a diamond polishing facility in South Africa and is a sight-holder. The Company will continue to invest in additional opportunities that will potentially lead to additional conflict-free sources of rough diamonds. Some, but not all, of Tiffany’s suppliers are DTC sight-holders, and it is estimated that a significant portion of the diamonds that Tiffany has purchased have had their source with the DTC.

In Fiscal 2006, approximately 40% of the polished diamonds acquired for use in jewelry were produced from rough diamonds purchased by the Company. The Company expects to continue to purchase rough diamonds in increasing amounts from Aber, the DTC and other sellers through its affiliated companies. The Company sorts, processes, and cuts/polishes some diamonds purchased from Aber and other sellers. Other diamonds are provided to contractors for cutting/polishing and return. In conducting these activities, it is the Company’s intention to supply Tiffany’s needs for cut/polished diamonds to as great an extent as possible. The Company will strive to minimize the number of rough or cut stones that do not meet Tiffany’s quality standards and must be sold to third parties; however, some such sales are inevitable and have been conducted through Registrant’s Other channel of distribution. The Company’s objective from such sales is to recoup its original costs, thereby earning minimal, if any, gross margin on those transactions.

Worldwide Availability of Diamonds. The availability and price of diamonds to the DTC, Tiffany and Tiffany’s suppliers may be, to some extent, dependent on the political situation in diamond-producing countries, the opening of new mines and the continuance of the prevailing supply and marketing arrangements for rough diamonds. As a consequence of changes in the sight-holder system and increased competition in the retail diamond trade, substantial competition exists for rough diamonds, which resulted in significant increases in diamond prices commencing in Fiscal 2004 and continued, albeit lesser, increases in diamond prices through 2006. Sustained interruption in the supply of rough diamonds, an over-abundance of supply or a substantial change in the marketing arrangements described above could adversely affect Tiffany and the retail jewelry industry as a whole. Changes in the marketing and advertising policies of the DTC and its direct purchasers could affect consumer demand for diamonds. Additionally, an affiliate of the DTC has formed a joint venture with an affiliate of a major luxury goods retailer for the purpose of retailing diamond jewelry. This joint venture has become a competitor of Tiffany. Further, the DTC has encouraged its sight-holders to engage in diamond brand development, which may also increase demand for diamonds and affect the supply of diamonds in certain categories.

Increasing attention has been focused within the last few years on the issue of “conflict” diamonds. Conflict diamonds are extracted from war-torn geographic regions and sold by rebel forces to fund

t i f f a n y & c o .
K - 1 5

insurrection. Allegations have been made in the press that diamond trading is used as a source of funds to further terrorist activities. Concerned participants in the diamond trade, including Tiffany and non-government organizations, seek to exclude such diamonds, which represent a small fraction of the world’s supply, from legitimate trade through an international system of certification and legislation. It is expected that such efforts will not substantially affect the supply of diamonds.

Manufactured diamonds have become available in small quantities. Although significant questions remain as to the ability of producers to produce manufactured diamonds economically within a full range of sizes and natural diamond colors, and as to consumer acceptance of manufactured diamonds, it is possible that manufactured diamonds may become a factor in the market. Should manufactured diamonds come into the market in significant quantities at prices significantly below those for natural diamonds of comparable quality, the price for natural diamonds may fall unless consumers are willing to pay a premium for natural diamonds. Such a price decline could affect the price that Tiffany is able to obtain for its products. Also, a significant decline in the price of natural diamonds may affect the economics of diamond mining, causing some mining operations to become uneconomic; this, in turn, could lead to shortages in natural diamonds.

Finished Jewelry. Finished jewelry is purchased from approximately 100 manufacturers, most of which have long-standing relationships with Tiffany. Tiffany believes that there are alternative sources for most jewelry items; however, due to the craftsmanship involved in certain designs, Tiffany would have difficulty finding readily available alternatives in the short term.

Watch Components. Components for TIFFANY & CO. brand timepieces are manufactured and assembled by third parties. Approximately 60% of net watch sales during Fiscal 2006 and nearly all movements for Tiffany’s line of watches were attributable to and purchased from a single manufacturer. The loss of this manufacturer could result in the unavailability of timepieces during the period necessary for Tiffany to arrange for new production.

COMPETITION

TIFFANY & CO. stores encounter significant competition in all product lines. Some competitors specialize in just one area in which Tiffany is active. Many competitors have established worldwide, national or local reputations for style, quality, expertise and customer service similar to Tiffany and compete on the basis of that reputation. Other jewelers and retailers compete primarily through advertised price promotion. Tiffany competes on the basis of its reputation for high quality products, brand recognition, customer service and distinctive value-priced merchandise and does not engage in price promotional advertising (see Merchandise Purchasing, Manufacturing and Raw Materials above).

Competition for engagement jewelry sales is particularly fierce and becoming more so. The rise of the Internet and increased use of diamond condition reports issued by independent gemological associations have given rise to the mistaken impression amongst certain consumers that diamonds are commodity items and that significant quality differences do not exist. Tiffany’s price for diamonds reflects the rarity of the stones it offers and the rigid parameters it exercises with respect to the cut, clarity and other quality factors which increase the beauty of Tiffany diamonds, but also increase Tiffany’s cost. Tiffany competes in this market by stressing quality, while some competitors offer inferior diamonds claiming they are comparable, but at lesser prices.

Registrant also faces increasing competition in the area of direct marketing. A growing number of direct sellers compete for access to the same mailing lists of known purchasers of luxury goods. Tiffany currently distributes selected merchandise through its websites and anticipates continuing competition in this area as the technology evolves. Tiffany does not offer diamond engagement jewelry through its

t i f f a n y & c o .
K - 1 6

website, while certain of Tiffany’s competitors do. Nonetheless, Tiffany will seek to maintain and improve its position in the Internet marketplace by refining and expanding its merchandise selection and services.

SEASONALITY

As a jeweler and specialty retailer, the Company’s business is seasonal in nature, with the fourth quarter typically representing a proportionally greater percentage of annual sales, earnings from operations and cash flow. Management expects such seasonality to continue.

EMPLOYEES

As of January 31, 2007, the Registrant’s subsidiary corporations employed an aggregate of approximately 8,900 full-time and part-time persons. Of those employees, approximately 6,200 are employed in the United States. Approximately 16 of the total number of Registrant’s subsidiary’s employees in the Caribbean are represented by unions, approximately 45 of the total number of Registrant’s subsidiary’s employees in South Africa are represented by unions and approximately 365 of the total number of Registrant’s subsidiaries’ employees in Vietnam are represented by unions. None of Registrant’s unionized employees are employed in the United States. Registrant believes that relations with its employees and these unions are good.

Item 1A.   Risk Factors.

As a jeweler and specialty retailer, the Registrant’s success in achieving its objectives and expectations is partially dependent upon economic conditions, competitive developments and consumer attitudes, including changes in consumer preferences for certain jewelry styles and materials. However, certain assumptions are specific to the Registrant and/or the markets in which it operates.

The following assumptions, among others, are “risk factors” which could affect the likelihood that the Registrant will achieve the objectives and expectations communicated by management:

(i) that low or negative growth in the economy or in the financial markets, particularly in the U.S. and Japan, will not occur and reduce discretionary spending on goods that are, or are perceived to be, “luxuries”;

(ii) that consumer spending does not decline substantially during the fourth quarter of any year;

(iii) that unsettled regional and/or global conflicts or crises do not result in military, terrorist or other conditions creating disruptions or disincentives to, or changes in the pattern, practice or frequency of tourist travel to the various regions where the Registrant operates retail stores nor to the Registrant’s continuing ability to operate in those regions;

(iv) that sales in Japan will not decline substantially;

(v) that there will not be a substantial adverse change in the exchange relationship between the Japanese yen and the U.S. dollar;

(vi) that Mitsukoshi and other department store operators in Japan, in the face of declining or stagnant department store sales, will not close or consolidate stores which have TIFFANY & CO. retail locations;

(vii) that Mitsukoshi will continue as a leading department store operator in Japan;

(viii) that existing product supply arrangements, including license arrangements with third-party designers Elsa Peretti and Paloma Picasso, will continue;

(ix) that the wholesale and retail market for high-quality rough and cut diamonds will provide continuity of supply and pricing within the quality grades, colors and sizes that customers demand;

(x) that the Registrant’s diamond supply initiatives achieve their financial and strategic objectives;

(xi) that the Registrant’s gross margins in Japan and for diamond products can be maintained in the face of increased competition from traditional and e-commerce retailers;

(xii) that the Registrant is able to pass on higher costs of raw materials to consumers through price increases;

(xiii) that the sale of counterfeit products does not significantly undermine the value of the Registrant’s trademarks and demand for the Registrant’s products;

(xiv) that new and existing stores and other sales locations can be leased, re-leased or otherwise obtained on suitable terms in desired markets and that construction can be completed on a timely basis;

t i f f a n y & c o .
K - 1 8

(xv) that the Registrant can achieve satisfactory results from any current and future businesses into which it enters that are operated under trademarks or tradenames other than TIFFANY & CO.; and

(xvi) that the Registrant’s expansion plans for retail and direct selling operations and merchandise development, production and management can continue to be executed without meaningfully diminishing the distinctive appeal of the TIFFANY & CO. brand.

Item 2.   Properties.

Registrant owns or leases its principal operating facilities and occupies its various store premises under lease arrangements that are generally on a two to ten-year basis.

NEW YORK FLAGSHIP STORE

In November 1999, Tiffany purchased the land and building housing its Flagship store at 727 Fifth Avenue in New York City which it had leased since 1984. The building was originally constructed for Tiffany in 1940 but was later sold by Tiffany and leased back. It was designed to be a retail store for Tiffany and is believed to be well located for this function. Currently, approximately 40,000 gross square feet of this 124,000 square foot building are devoted to retail sales, with the balance devoted to administrative offices, certain product services, jewelry manufacturing and storage. In Fiscal 2000, Tiffany commenced a multi-year renovation and reconfiguration project to increase the store’s selling space and provide additional floor space for customer service and special exhibitions. An additional selling floor was opened in November 2001 and all renovations were completed by the end of Fiscal 2006.

LONDON FLAGSHIP STORE

In October 2002, Registrant purchased a corporation owning the building housing its Flagship TIFFANY & CO. store at 25/25A Old Bond Street in London and the adjacent building at 15 Albermarle Street. The London store had been leased since Fiscal 1986 and was expanded to 15,200 gross square feet in 1991. In Fiscal 2006, a renovation and reconfiguration plan was completed, thereby increasing the store to its current 22,400 gross square feet.

TOKYO FLAGSHIP STORE

In June 2003, through its purchase of a trust beneficiary interest, Registrant’s Japanese affiliate acquired the land and building housing the TIFFANY & CO. Flagship store in Tokyo’s Ginza shopping district. The 61,000 gross square foot, nine-story building houses retail, restaurant and office tenants, including the TIFFANY & CO. store located on the street level, second and third floors. Prior to its purchase, the Tokyo Flagship store had been leased. The store was expanded to its current 12,000 gross square feet in Fiscal 1999.

U.S. TIFFANY & CO. Stores

In Fiscal 2006, Tiffany leased and operated 63 retail branch locations in the U.S. totaling approximately 446,000 gross square feet devoted to retail selling and operations (not including the New York Flagship store). Tiffany retail branch stores range from approximately 1,300 to 18,000 gross square feet with an average retail store size of approximately 7,100 gross square feet. Management currently contemplates the opening of new TIFFANY & CO. branch stores in the United States at the rate of approximately five to seven per year. Prior to Fiscal 1993, an average of approximately 45% of the floor space in each branch store was devoted to retail selling. Stores opened between Fiscal 1993 and Fiscal 2001 generally range from approximately 4,000 to 7,000 gross square feet and are designed to devote approximately 60-70% of total floor space to retail selling. Branch stores opened after Fiscal 2001 are generally smaller, approximately 5,000 gross square feet, and display primarily jewelry and timepieces, with a select assortment of china and crystal giftware. The East Hampton, Palm Desert, Carmel and Atlantic City locations, ranging from approximately 3,000 to 4,500 gross square feet in size, represent the Company’s “resort” stores.

New U.S. TIFFANY & CO. Retail Branch Store Leases. In addition to the U.S. leases described above, Registrant has entered into the following new leases for domestic stores expected to open in Fiscal 2007: a 20-year lease for an approximately 11,000 gross square foot store on Wall Street in New York, New York, a 10-year lease for an approximately 9,100 gross square foot store in Las Vegas, Nevada, a 10-year lease for an approximately 5,100 gross square foot store in Austin, Texas, a 10-year lease for an approximately 5,300 gross square foot store in Natick, Massachusetts, and a 10-year lease for an approximately 6,000 gross square foot store in Red Bank, New Jersey.

International TIFFANY & CO. Stores

At the end of Fiscal 2006, Registrant operated 103 retail locations internationally, including the London and Tokyo Flagship stores, totaling approximately 306,000 gross square feet devoted to retail selling and operations. Outside of Japan, Registrant operates 51 international retail stores ranging from approximately 500 to 22,400 gross square feet with an average retail store size of approximately 3,200 gross square feet. At the end of Fiscal 2006 Registrant operated 52 retail locations in Japan ranging from

t i f f a n y & c o .

approximately 1,100 to 12,000 gross square feet with an average retail store size of approximately 2,700 gross square feet.

New International TIFFANY & CO. Retail Branch Store Leases. In addition to the International locations listed above, Registrant has entered into the following new leases for International branch stores expected to open in Fiscal 2007: a 3-year lease for an approximately 1,100 gross square foot store in Seoul, Korea, a 3-year lease for an approximately 1,600 gross square foot store in Changi Airport, Singapore, a 10-year lease for an approximately 3,700 gross square foot store in Hamburg, Germany, and a 3-year lease for an approximately 1,200 gross square foot store in Mexico City, Mexico.

For Fiscal 2007, Registrant’s Japanese affiliate has entered into contractual obligations with Seibu Department store in Shibuya, Japan; Takashimaya Department store in Shinjuku, Japan; and Fukuya Department store in Hiroshima, Japan, for the operation of concession boutiques within said department stores of areas comprising approximately 1,700, 2,700, and 1,900 gross square feet, respectively.

LITTLE SWITZERLAND Stores

In Fiscal 2006, Little Switzerland leased and operated 25 retail locations in the U.S. and Caribbean totaling approximately 93,000 gross square feet devoted to retail selling and operations. Little Switzerland’s retail store leases range from approximately 250 to 6,000 gross square feet of selling space with an average retail store size of approximately 2,500 gross square feet. Little Switzerland leases most of its retail store locations for an average of five years, with two exercisable five-year renewal options. Little Switzerland has three pending lease renewals in 2007. Additionally, Little Switzerland leases approximately 29,000 square feet for office space and storage.

IRIDESSE Stores

In Fiscal 2006, Iridesse leased and operated 13 retail locations in the U.S. totaling approximately 19,000 gross square feet devoted to retail selling and operations. Iridesse retail stores range from approximately 1,300 to 1,600 gross square feet with an average retail store size of approximately 1,500 gross square feet. Iridesse rents its retail store locations under standard shopping mall leases, which may contain minimum rent escalations, for an average term of 10 years. Iridesse leases are all directly or indirectly guaranteed by Registrant. There are no pending lease expirations or renewals in Fiscal 2007.

New IRIDESSE Store Leases. In addition to the U.S. leases described above, Iridesse has entered into 10-year leases for stores averaging approximately 1,500 gross square feet in Paramus, New Jersey; Century City, California and Santa Clara, California.

RETAIL SERVICE CENTER

In April 1997, construction of the Retail Service Center (“RSC”) in the Township of Parsippany-Troy Hills in New Jersey was completed and Tiffany commenced operations. The RSC comprises approximately 370,000 square feet, of which approximately 186,000 square feet are devoted to office and computer operations use, with the balance devoted to warehousing, shipping, receiving, light manufacturing, merchandise processing and other distribution functions. The RSC specializes in receipt of merchandise from around the world and replenishment of retail stores. Registrant believes that the RSC has been properly designed to handle worldwide distribution functions and that it is suitable for that purpose.

In September 2005, Tiffany entered into a purchase and sale agreement pursuant to which it sold and conveyed the RSC. Under the terms of the agreement, the purchaser paid Tiffany $75,000,000 and

t i f f a n y & c o .
K - 2 1

entered into a long term lease with Tiffany for the RSC. The lease expires in 2025, subject to Tiffany’s option to extend the term of the lease for two 10-year renewal periods.

CUSTOMER FULFILLMENT CENTER

In Fiscal 2001 Tiffany entered into a ground lease of undeveloped property in Hanover Township, New Jersey in order to construct and occupy a Customer Fulfillment Center (“CFC”) to manage the warehousing and processing of direct-to-customer orders and to perform other distribution functions. Construction of the CFC was completed and Tiffany commenced operations at this facility in September 2003 under a temporary certificate of occupancy. A permanent certificate of occupancy is anticipated when the landlord completes certain corrective work to the property to the satisfaction of the Township. Tiffany and the landlord have a dispute over the landlord’s entitlement to reimbursement of certain costs associated with the landlord’s site work and landlord’s performance of such work. The CFC is approximately 266,000 square feet; an area of approximately 34,500 square feet that is devoted to office use and the balance of which is devoted to warehousing, shipping, receiving, merchandise processing and other warehouse functions.

MANUFACTURING FACILITIES

Since 2001, Tiffany has owned and operated a manufacturing facility in Cumberland, Rhode Island. It is an approximately 100,000 square foot facility that was specially designed and constructed for Tiffany for the manufacture of jewelry. It produces a significant portion of the silver, gold and platinum jewelry and silver accessory items sold under the TIFFANY & CO. trademark.

On January 31, 2003, Tiffany purchased a warehouse facility and land located in Cranston, Rhode Island. During Fiscal 2003, Tiffany renovated the approximately 75,000 square foot building to process metals for use in jewelry manufacturing.

On July 1, 1997, Tiffany entered into a lease for an approximately 34,000 square foot manufacturing facility in Pelham, New York, to expire on June 30, 2008. In Fiscal 2004, Tiffany modified the lease to add an additional 10,200 square feet to the lease, subject to the original expiration date.

On February 16, 2005, Tiffany purchased approximately 22,000 square feet of space to be used as a manufacturing facility for jewelry setting in Mount Vernon, New York.

Item 3.   Legal Proceedings.

Registrant and Tiffany are from time to time involved in routine litigation incidental to the conduct of Tiffany’s business, including proceedings to protect its trademark rights, litigation with parties claiming infringement of their intellectual property rights by Tiffany, litigation instituted by persons alleged to have been injured upon premises within Registrant’s control and litigation with present and former employees and customers. Although litigation with present and former employees is routine and incidental to the conduct of Tiffany’s business, as well as for any business employing significant numbers of U.S.-based employees, such litigation can result in large monetary awards when a civil jury is allowed to determine compensatory and/or punitive damages for actions claiming discrimination on the basis of age, gender, race, religion, disability or other legally protected characteristic or for termination of employment that is wrongful or in violation of implied contracts. However, Registrant believes that litigation currently pending to which it or Tiffany is a party or to which its properties are subject will be resolved without any material adverse effect on Registrant’s financial position, earnings or cash flows.

On or about July 1, 2004, both Tiffany and the landlord of Tiffany’s Customer Fulfillment Center (“River Park”) requested arbitration of the parties’ continuing dispute over their respective obligations surrounding completion of River Park’s site work (Tiffany and Company v. River Park Business Center, Inc., American Arbitration Association). In connection with the arbitration, River Park’s then pending civil claim in the Superior Court of New Jersey (Morris County), River Park Business Center, Inc. v. Tiffany and Company, was dismissed in September 2004.

In the arbitration, Tiffany asserts River Park’s continuing breach of its obligations to complete Landlord’s Work by the close of Fiscal 2001, as originally required under the Ground Lease, and to obtain timely site plan approval from the Township of Hanover. Tiffany seeks damages stemming from River Park’s continuous delays in completing its obligations, which damages Tiffany contends are in excess of $1,000,000. In its arbitration complaint, River Park seeks an unspecified amount in damages alleging entitlement to reimbursement of grading costs and excess installation costs of the landfill gas venting system.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related notes. All references to years relate to the fiscal year that ends on January 31 of the following calendar year.

KEY GROWTH STRATEGIES

The Company’s key growth strategies are:

	•		To selectively expand its channels of distribution in important markets around the world without compromising the value of the TIFFANY & CO. trademark;
	•		To provide superior customer service;
	•		To maintain an active product development program;
	•		To increase its control over product supply through direct diamond sourcing and internal jewelry manufacturing;
	•		To achieve improved profit margins; and
	•		To enhance customer awareness through marketing and public relations programs.

2006 HIGHLIGHTS

	•		Net sales increased 11% to $2.6 billion due to growth in all channels of distribution.
	•		Worldwide comparable store sales increased 6% on a constant-exchange-rate basis (see Non-GAAP Measures). Comparable TIFFANY & CO. store sales in the U.S. increased 5%. Comparable international store sales increased 8%. Growth in most countries more than offset weakness in Japan.
	•		Net earnings of $254 million were approximately equal to the prior year, although earnings before income taxes increased 10%. Net earnings in 2005 included non-recurring tax benefits related to the repatriation provisions of the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004.
	•		Net earnings per diluted share rose 3% due to fewer shares outstanding.
	•		The Board of Directors authorized increased repurchases of Common Stock and extended the expiration of the repurchase program. The Company repurchased 8.1 million shares of its Common Stock in 2006.
	•		The number of Company-operated TIFFANY & CO. stores and boutiques increased 8%. The Company added 16 retail locations: five in the U.S., four in Japan, three in China and one each in Mexico, Korea, Austria and Canada. Three existing locations were closed: two in Japan and one in Korea.
	•		The Company introduced a wide range of new products, highlighted by the launch of jewelry designed by Frank Gehry, the world-renowned architect.
	•		The Company launched an informational website in China.
	•		The Board of Directors increased the quarterly dividend rate by 25%.

NON-GAAP MEASURES

The Company’s reported sales reflect either a translation-related benefit from strengthening foreign currencies or a detriment from a strengthening U.S. dollar.

The Company reports information in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). Internally, management monitors its international sales performance on a non-GAAP basis that eliminates the positive or negative effects that result from translating international sales into U.S. dollars (“constant-exchange-rate basis”). Management believes this constant-exchange-rate measure provides a more representative assessment of the sales performance and provides better comparability between reporting periods.

The Company’s management does not, nor does it suggest that investors should, consider such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company presents such non-GAAP financial measures in reporting its financial results to provide investors with an additional tool to evaluate the Company’s operating results.

The following table reconciles sales percentage increases (decreases) from the GAAP to the non-GAAP basis versus the previous year:

		2006												2005

A store’s sales are included in “comparable store sales” when the store has been open for more than 12 months. In markets except Japan, sales for relocated stores are included in comparable store sales if the relocation occurs within the same geographical market. In Japan, sales for a new store or boutique are not included if the store was relocated from one department store to another or from a department store to a free-standing location. In all markets, the results of a store in which the square footage has been expanded or reduced remain in the comparable store base.

U.S. Retail. U.S. Retail includes sales in TIFFANY & CO. stores in the U.S. and sales of TIFFANY & CO. products through business-to-business direct selling operations in the U.S. The following table presents the U.S. Retail channel and its components as a percentage of worldwide net sales:

		2006				2005				2004
New York Flagship store			9	%			10	%			10	%
Branch stores			39	%			39	%			39	%
Business-to-business			2	%			2	%			2	%
			50	%			51	%			51	%

U.S. Retail sales increased in 2006 and 2005 as a result of comparable store sales growth of 5% and 7% in 2006 and 2005 and the opening of new stores. In 2006 and 2005, the New York Flagship store’s sales increased 9% and 5% and comparable branch store sales increased 4% and 7%. Comparable store sales

t i f f a n y & c o .
K - 2 9

growth in both years resulted from increases in the average sales amount per transaction. Management attributes the increased amount per transaction to sales of higher-priced merchandise as well as generally favorable conditions for consumer spending. In 2006 and 2005, the Company experienced growth across a range of jewelry categories, with especially strong results in jewelry with diamonds. The Company opened five new U.S. stores in 2006 and four new U.S. stores in 2005.

International Retail. International Retail includes sales in TIFFANY & CO. stores and department store boutiques outside the U.S. and, to a lesser extent, business-to-business, Internet and wholesale sales of TIFFANY & CO. products outside the U.S. The following table presents the sales contribution in U.S. dollars of each geographic region within the International Retail channel as a percentage of worldwide net sales:

		2006				2005				2004
Japan			19	%			20	%			22	%
Other Asia-Pacific			9	%			8	%			7	%
Europe			7	%			6	%			6	%
Other International			3	%			4	%			4	%
			38	%			38	%			39	%

International Retail sales, on a constant-exchange-rate basis, increased 13% in 2006 and 7% in 2005, and comparable store sales rose 8% in 2006 and 2% in 2005. When compared with the prior year, the weighted-average U.S. dollar exchange rate was stronger in both 2006 and 2005.

Japan retail sales, on a constant-exchange-rate basis, increased 4% in both 2006 and 2005 due to an increase in unit sales of engagement and other fine jewelry. Comparable store sales were unchanged in both years. Management’s operational focus in Japan is to increase sales by improving the in-store shopping experience and cultivating more long-term customer relationships, while also upgrading certain boutiques through renovation or relocation. In addition, management believes that Japan sales will continue to be affected by increased “luxury-goods” competition.

In 2006, the Company opened four locations in Japan and closed two. In 2005, the Company opened two locations and five were closed. The store closings are consistent with management’s intention to enhance the quality of its selling locations in Japan. The Company also launched an e-commerce website in 2005.

In the Asia-Pacific region outside of Japan, comparable store sales on a constant-exchange-rate basis increased 22% in 2006 and 8% in 2005 due to growth in most markets. In Europe, comparable store sales on a constant-exchange-rate basis increased 20% in 2006 due to growth in all markets including the United Kingdom (which represents more than half of European sales) and 1% in 2005.

Store Data. Gross square feet of Company-operated TIFFANY & CO. stores increased 6% to 792,000 in 2006, following a 2% increase to 745,000 in 2005. Sales per gross square foot generated by those stores were $2,746 in 2006, $2,666 in 2005 and $2,546 in 2004. The Company’s newer U.S. stores use a smaller footprint and are more productive than the Company’s average. Management’s objective is to increase sales per square foot by improving customer traffic through more targeted advertising and improving the conversion rate through continued sales training initiatives.

Given the success of new stores opened in recent years, management has adopted a more aggressive program for store openings. The Company’s revised worldwide expansion strategy is to add 15-17 Company-operated TIFFANY & CO. stores and boutiques annually. Beginning in 2007, the Company expects to add 5-7 new U.S. stores and approximately 10 international stores

t i f f a n y & c o .
K - 3 0

each year. 2007 store openings announced to date for the U.S. are: Austin, Texas, Wall Street, New York City, Las Vegas, Nevada (the second store in that market), Natick, Massachusetts and Red Bank, New Jersey. 2007 openings announced to date for non-U.S. markets are stores in: Japan, Singapore, Korea, Germany and Mexico.

Direct Marketing. Direct Marketing includes Internet and catalog sales of TIFFANY & CO. products in the U.S. Direct Marketing sales rose in both 2006 and 2005 due to increases in both the number of orders shipped and the average order size. Website traffic and orders have continued to increase as consumers have shifted their purchases from catalogs to the Internet. Catalogs remain an effective marketing tool for both retail and Internet sales, but the Company has reduced catalog circulation and in 2006 began e-mail marketing communications to customers.

Other. Other includes worldwide sales of businesses operated under trademarks or tradenames other than TIFFANY & CO. (“specialty retail”). Other also includes wholesale sales of diamonds obtained through bulk purchases deemed not suitable for the Company’s needs. Other sales increased in 2006 and 2005. More than half of the increase resulted from wholesale sales of diamonds. Sales in LITTLE SWITZERLAND stores (which represent the majority of Other sales) increased 6% in 2006 and 7% in 2005. IRIDESSE store sales increased in both years largely due to an increased store base.

Gross Margin

Gross margin (gross profit as a percentage of net sales) declined in 2006 by 0.3 percentage point and improved in 2005 by 0.2 percentage point. The primary components of the net decline in 2006 were: (i) a 0.4 percentage point decline due to increased low-margin wholesale sales of diamonds; (ii) a 0.3 percentage point decline due to changes in product sales mix and increased product costs; which was partially offset by (iii) a 0.5 percentage point improvement due to the leverage effect of fixed product-related costs, which includes costs associated with merchandising and distribution. The increase in 2005 was primarily attributable to changes in geographic and product sales mix and selective price increases (0.6 percentage point), partially offset by increased low-margin wholesale sales of diamonds (0.5 percentage point). Wholesale diamond sales are made to divest gemstones that do not meet Tiffany’s quality requirements; typically, the Company purchases such gemstones in mixed lots which are then culled.

The Company’s hedging program (see note K to consolidated financial statements) uses yen put options to stabilize product costs in Japan over the short-term despite exchange rate fluctuations. The Company adjusts its retail prices in Japan from time to time to address longer-term changes in the yen/dollar relationship and local competitive pricing.

Management’s objective is to improve gross margin through greater product manufacturing/sourcing efficiencies (including increased direct rough-diamond sourcing and internal manufacturing), increased utilization of distribution center capacity, and selective price adjustments to address higher product costs.

Selling, General and Administrative (“SG&A”) Expenses

SG&A expenses increased $100,605,000, or 10%, in 2006 largely due to increased labor and benefit costs of $31,400,000 and increased depreciation and occupancy expenses of $25,900,000, which is largely due to new and existing stores. In addition, marketing expenses increased $25,800,000, which included the launch of the Frank Gehry jewelry collection. In 2006, the Company recorded total charges of $6,893,000 related to the impairment of goodwill for its Little Switzerland business as a result of store performance and cash flow projections (see note E to consolidated financial statements). Despite increasing the

t i f f a n y & c o .
K - 3 1

advertising-to-sales ratio from 5.7% in 2005 to 6.2% in 2006, SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales improved by 0.1 percentage point in 2006.

SG&A expenses increased $23,591,000, or 3%, in 2005. However, excluding several one-time costs in 2004 (a $25,000,000 contribution to The Tiffany & Co. Foundation, a $12,193,000 impairment charge and $2,932,000 of exit costs associated with discontinuing a specialty retail concept that the Company decided not to pursue), SG&A expenses would have increased 7% in 2005 due to higher labor and benefit costs (representing $33,400,000 of the increase) and higher depreciation and occupancy expenses attributable to new stores and variable rent (representing $19,200,000 of the increase). In addition, in 2005, the Company recorded $2,201,000 of losses associated with the sale of the Company’s equity investment in a retail designer and distributor and $2,115,000 of losses associated with the sale of a glassware manufacturing operation. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses improved 2.3 percentage points in 2005. Excluding the one-time costs in 2004 discussed above, SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales would have improved 0.5 percentage point in 2005 due to overall sales growth.

Management’s objective is to improve the ratio of SG&A expenses to net sales by controlling expenses so that sales growth can result in a higher rate of earnings growth.

*Percentages represent earnings (losses) from operations as a percentage of each segment’s net sales.

Reclassifications were made to the prior years’ earnings (losses) from operations by segment to conform to the current year presentation and to reflect the revised manner in which management evaluates the performance of segments (see note R to consolidated financial statements for further information on the reclassifications that were made).

Earnings from operations rose 9% in 2006. On a segment basis, the ratio of earnings (losses) from operations (before the effect of unallocated corporate expenses and interest expense, financing costs and other income, net) to each segment’s net sales in 2006 compared with 2005 was as follows:

	•		U.S. Retail – decreased 2 percentage points primarily due to a decline in gross margin (due to higher product costs) and increased SG&A expenses (due to new and existing stores as well as increased marketing expenses);
	•		International Retail – increased 2 percentage points primarily due to an improved gross margin (due to the leveraging of product-related costs) and the leveraging of operating expenses which benefited from increased sales growth;
	•		Direct Marketing – decreased 1 percentage point primarily due to a decline in gross margin (due to higher product costs); and

t i f f a n y & c o .
K - 3 2

•

Other – increased loss of 5 percentage points primarily due to continued investments in the development of the specialty retail businesses and greater than expected losses from the Little Switzerland business, including a $6,893,000 loss related to the impairment of all goodwill. 2005 included losses associated with business dispositions.

Earnings from operations rose 30% in 2005. On a segment basis, the ratio of earnings (losses) from operations (before the effect of unallocated corporate expenses and interest expense, financing costs and other income, net) to each segment’s net sales in 2005 compared with 2004 was as follows:

	•		U.S. Retail – increased 2 percentage points primarily due to increased sales and gross margin and the leveraging of fixed expenses;
	•		International Retail – decreased 1 percentage point primarily due to a decline in gross margin (due to increased product costs);
	•		Direct Marketing – increased 5 percentage points primarily due to increased sales and gross margin and the leveraging of fixed expenses; and
	•		Other – reduced loss of 10 percentage points primarily due to the absence of impairment and exit costs incurred in 2004. Excluding these charges from the 2004 loss from operations, the ratio of losses from operations to net sales in 2005 would have been equal to 2004.

Unallocated corporate expenses include costs related to the Company’s administrative support functions, such as information technology, finance, legal and human resources. Unallocated corporate expenses decreased 1% in 2006 and 13% in 2005. The 13% decrease in 2005 was primarily due to the $25,000,000 contribution to The Tiffany & Co. Foundation made in 2004, which was partially offset by incremental labor and benefit costs.

Interest Expense and Financing Costs

Interest expense in 2006 was higher than 2005 primarily due to increased borrowings to support inventory growth and share repurchases. Interest expense in 2005 was slightly higher than 2004.

Other Income, Net

Other income, net includes interest income, gains/losses on investment activities and foreign currency transactions, and minority interest income/expense. Other income, net increased in 2006 and 2005. The increase in 2006 was primarily due to (i) $6,774,000 of gains associated with the sale of equity investments and marketable securities; (ii) increased interest income; partially offset by (iii) a change of $4,080,000 in foreign currency transaction gains/losses. The increase in 2005 was primarily due to increased interest income associated with a higher level of average investments and higher interest rates, as well as transaction gains on settlement of foreign payables.

Gain on Sale of Equity Investment

In December 2004, the Company sold its entire investment holdings of eight million shares in Aber Diamond Corporation (“Aber”), which had been acquired in July 1999, and recorded a pre-tax gain of $193,597,000, or a gain of $125,064,000 net of tax (see Liquidity and Capital Resources).

Provision for Income Taxes

The effective income tax rate was 37.2% in 2006, compared with 30.8% in 2005 and 35.6% in 2004. The lower effective tax rates in 2005 and 2004 primarily reflected tax benefits associated with the repatriation provisions of the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 (“AJCA”). The 2004 rate also benefited from the favorable state tax treatment on the gain from the Company’s sale of its equity investment in Aber.

The AJCA, which was signed into law on October 22, 2004, created a temporary incentive for U.S. companies to repatriate accumulated foreign earnings by providing an 85% dividends received deduction for certain dividends from controlled foreign corporations. The incentive effectively reduced the amount of U.S. Federal income tax due on repatriation. Taking advantage of the AJCA, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $8,600,000 in 2004 to reflect the Company’s plan to repatriate $100,000,000 of accumulated foreign earnings. In 2005, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $22,588,000 due to the Internal Revenue Service clarifying certain provisions of the AJCA in May 2005, which also resulted in the Company’s decision to repatriate additional foreign earnings. The tax benefit to the Company occurred because the Company had previously accrued income taxes on un-repatriated foreign earnings at statutory tax rates. In total, the Company repatriated $178,245,000 of accumulated foreign earnings.

2007 Outlook

Management’s financial performance objectives for 2007 are based on the following assumptions and should be read in conjunction with Item 1A “Risk Factors” on page K-18:

	•		Net sales growth of 11%-12%. This objective assumes a high-single-digit percentage increase in worldwide comparable store sales on a constant-exchange-rate basis, including a high-single-digit percentage increase in both the U.S. and internationally. It also assumes adding 17 Company-operated TIFFANY & CO. stores.
	•		An increase in the operating margin primarily due to an improvement in gross margin as a result of a stabilization of product costs, favorable sales mix and the leverage of fixed costs against sales growth.
	•		Other expenses, net of approximately $21 million-$23 million.
	•		An increase in the effective tax rate to 38%.
	•		Net earnings per diluted share growth of 15%.
	•		Net inventories increasing by a high-single-digit percentage.
	•		Capital expenditures of approximately $180 million.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company’s liquidity needs have been, and are expected to remain, primarily a function of its seasonal and expansion-related working capital requirements and capital expenditure needs. The ratio of total debt (short-term borrowings, current portion of long-term debt and long-term debt) to stockholders’ equity was 29% and 26% at January 31, 2007 and 2006.

The following table summarizes cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities:

(in thousands)		2006				2005				2004
Net cash provided by (used in):
Operating activities		$	233,582			$	262,691			$	130,853

Net (decrease) increase in cash and cash equivalents		$	(217,106)			$	205,928			$	(60,984)

Operating Activities

The Company had net cash inflows from operating activities of $233,582,000 in 2006, $262,691,000 in 2005 and $130,853,000 in 2004. The decrease in 2006 resulted from higher inventory purchases, partly offset by increased net earnings after adjustment for non-cash items and lower payments for taxes made in 2006 (in 2005 payments for taxes were higher due to the gain on the sale of the Company’s equity investment in Aber). Increased net cash inflows in 2005 resulted from increased net earnings after adjustment for non-cash items and smaller growth in inventories, partly offset by increased tax payments largely associated with a gain recognized on the sale of the Company’s equity investment in Aber in the fourth quarter of 2004.

Working Capital. Working capital (current assets less current liabilities) and the corresponding current ratio (current assets divided by current liabilities) were $1,253,973,000 and 3.8 at January 31, 2007, compared with $1,334,233,000 and 4.7 at January 31, 2006.

Accounts receivable, less allowances, at January 31, 2007 were 19% higher than January 31, 2006 due to sales growth, a shift in credit card usage toward the Company’s in-house card and an increase in reimbursements from landlords related to new store build-outs. On a 12-month rolling basis, accounts receivable turnover was 18 times in 2006 and 19 times in 2005.

Inventories, net at January 31, 2007 were 15% above January 31, 2006. Combined raw material and work-in-process inventories increased 26% due to expanded diamond sourcing operations, as well as higher precious metal costs. Finished goods inventories increased 10% reflecting store openings, broadened product assortments and higher costs. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates had an insignificant effect on the change in inventory balances from January 31, 2006.

Investing Activities

The Company had a net cash outflow from investing activities of $204,979,000 in 2006, a net cash inflow of $31,943,000 in 2005 and a net cash outflow of $30,265,000 in 2004. Investing activities in 2005 included higher net proceeds from the sale of marketable securities and short-term investments and proceeds from the sale-leaseback of assets. Investing activities in 2004 included the proceeds from the sale of an equity investment.

Capital Expenditures. Capital expenditures were $182,393,000 in 2006, $157,036,000 in 2005 and $142,321,000 in 2004, representing 7%, 7% and 6% of net sales in those respective years. In all three years, expenditures were primarily related to the opening, renovation and expansion of stores and distribution facilities and ongoing investments in new systems.

In 2002, the Company acquired the property housing its Flagship store on Old Bond Street in London and an adjacent building, in order to renovate and reconfigure the interior retail selling space. Construction commenced in 2004 and was completed in 2006 at a cost of approximately $36,000,000.

In 2000, the Company began a multi-year project to renovate and reconfigure its New York Flagship store in order to increase the total sales area by approximately 25% and to provide additional space for customer service, customer hospitality and special exhibitions. The increase in the sales area was completed in 2001 when the renovated second floor opened to provide an expanded presentation of engagement and other jewelry. The renovated sixth floor that now houses the customer service department opened in 2002. The renovated fourth floor that offers tableware merchandise opened in 2003. The renovated third floor with silver jewelry and accessories opened in 2004. In conjunction with the New York store project, the Company relocated its after-sales service functions and several of its administrative functions. The Company completed the project in 2006 with the renovation of the main floor, for a total cost of approximately $110,000,000.

Acquisitions, Investments and Dispositions. In October 2005, the Company acquired a corporation that specializes in polishing small carat weight diamonds. The price payable by the Company for the entire equity interest in this corporation is $2,000,000, of which $1,200,000 was paid in 2005 and $400,000 in 2006; the balance will be paid when certain post-acquisition requirements are satisfied but no later than a fixed due date. This acquisition was not significant to the Company’s financial position, earnings or cash flows.

The Company made a $10,000,000 investment ($4,500,000 in 2004 and $5,500,000 in 2005) in a joint venture that owns and operates a diamond polishing facility. The Company’s interest in, and control over, this venture are such that its results are consolidated with those of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Company expects, through its investment, to gain access to additional supplies of diamonds that meet its quality standards.

In December 2004, the Company sold its entire investment in Aber through a private offering. To gain Aber’s consent to the sale, the Company paid a fee and ceded its right to representation on Aber’s Board of Directors. Aber, in turn, paid the Company the present value of the right to purchase diamonds at a discount, under a purchase agreement, which obligates the Company to purchase, subject to availability and the Company’s quality standards, a minimum of $50,000,000 of diamonds per year through 2013. Inclusive of the payments described above, the Company received proceeds of $278,081,000, net of investment banking and legal fees, related to the sale of its equity investment. A pre-tax gain of $193,597,000 was recognized on the sale of the stock, and $10,843,000 related to the present value of the discount under the purchase agreement was deferred. As the deferred amount represents the present value of the discount, interest will be recorded on the deferred amount, and the undiscounted amount

t i f f a n y & c o .

will be recognized as a reduction of inventory costs. The Company used $25,000,000 of the proceeds for a charitable contribution to The Tiffany & Co. Foundation; management used the balance for general corporate purposes, including share repurchases and additional investments to secure a greater supply of rough diamonds. The Company continues to maintain its commercial relationship with Aber through the diamond purchase agreement.

In December 2002, the Company made a $4,000,000 investment in a privately-held company that designs and sells jewelry. In 2004 and 2003, the Company made additional investments of $2,500,000 and $4,500,000. In October 2005, the Company sold its equity interest and recorded a loss of $2,201,000 in SG&A expenses. Prior to the sale of the equity interest, the Company consolidated those results in its financial statements based on the percentage of ownership and effective control over the direction of the operations of the business.

In September 2005, the Company entered into a sale-leaseback arrangement for its Retail Service Center, a distribution and administrative office facility. The Company received proceeds of $75,000,000 resulting in a gain of $5,300,000, which has been deferred and is being amortized over the lease term. The lease has been accounted for as an operating lease. The lease expires in 2025 and has two ten-year renewal options.

The Company continuously evaluates its manufacturing operations and supply chain to ensure that it has the optimal production mix to support long-term growth needs. In August 2005, the Company sold a glassware manufacturing operation. The Company recorded a loss of approximately $2,115,000 in SG&A expenses associated with the sale of the operation.

Marketable Securities. The Company invests excess cash in short-term investments and marketable securities. The Company had (net purchases of) or net proceeds from investments in marketable securities and short-term investments of ($13,063,000), $147,994,000 and ($146,470,000) during 2006, 2005 and 2004.

Financing Activities

The Company had net cash outflows from financing activities of $248,871,000 in 2006, $85,151,000 in 2005 and $163,937,000 in 2004. Financing activities reflected progressively increased share repurchases and changes in borrowings.

Dividends. Cash dividends paid were $52,611,000 in 2006, $42,903,000 in 2005 and $33,569,000 in 2004. The dividend payout ratio (dividends as a percentage of net earnings) was 21% in 2006, 17% in 2005 and 11% in 2004. In May 2006, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a 25% increase in the quarterly rate on common shares, increasing it from $0.08 per share to $0.10 per share. In May 2005, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a 33% increase in the quarterly dividend rate on common shares, increasing it from $0.06 per share to $0.08 per share. In May 2004, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a 20% increase in the quarterly dividend rate on common shares, increasing it from $0.05 per share to $0.06 per share.

Stock Repurchases. In March 2005, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program (“2005 Program”) that authorized the repurchase of up to $400,000,000 of the Company’s Common Stock through March 2007 by means of open market or private transactions. The 2005 Program replaced and terminated an earlier program. In August 2006, the Company’s Board of Directors extended the expiration date of the Company’s 2005 Program to December 2009, and authorized the repurchase of up to an additional $700,000,000 of the Company’s Common Stock through open market or private

t i f f a n y & c o .

transactions. The timing of repurchases and the actual number of shares to be repurchased depend on a variety of discretionary factors such as price and other market conditions.

The Company’s stock repurchase activity was as follows:

(in thousands, except per share amounts)		2006				2005				2004
Cost of repurchases		$	281,176			$	132,816			$	86,732
Shares repurchased and retired			8,149				3,835				2,735
Average cost per share		$	34.50			$	34.63			$	31.71

At January 31, 2007, there remained $695,414,000 of authorization for future repurchases.

At least annually, the Company’s Board of Directors reviews its policies with respect to dividends and share repurchases with a view to actual and projected earnings, cash flow and capital requirements for expansion.

Recent Borrowings. The Company’s current sources of working capital are internally-generated cash flows and borrowings available under a revolving credit facility.

In July 2005, the Company entered into a new $300,000,000 revolving credit facility (“Credit Facility”) and, in October 2006, exercised its option to increase the Credit Facility by $150,000,000 to $450,000,000. The Company has the option to increase such commitments to $500,000,000. The Credit Facility is available for working capital and other corporate purposes and contains covenants that require maintenance of certain debt/equity and interest-coverage ratios, in addition to other requirements customary to loan facilities of this nature. Borrowings may be made from eight participating banks and are at interest rates based upon local currency borrowing rates plus a margin that fluctuates with the Company’s fixed charge coverage ratio. The weighted-average interest rate at January 31, 2007 and 2006 was 2.44% and 3.59%. The Credit Facility expires in July 2010.

In January 2006, the Company borrowed HKD 300,000,000 ($38,672,000 at issuance) (“Hong Kong Term Loan”), SGD 13,100,000 ($8,043,000 at issuance) (“Singapore Term Loan”) and CHF 19,500,000 ($15,145,000 at issuance) (“Switzerland Term Loan”) due in January 2011. These funds were used to partially finance the repatriation of dividends related to the AJCA (see Provision for Income Taxes above). Principal payments of 10% of the original principal amount are due each year, with the balance due upon maturity. Amounts may be prepaid without incurring penalties. The covenants of the term loans are similar to the Credit Facility. Interest rates are based upon local currency borrowing rates plus a margin that fluctuates with the Company’s fixed charge coverage ratio. In 2006, the Singapore Term Loan was paid in full with existing funds. The interest rates for the Hong Kong Term Loan and the Switzerland Term Loan were 4.28% and 2.40%, respectively, at January 31, 2007 and 4.28% and 1.28%, respectively, at January 31, 2006. The interest rate for the Singapore Term Loan was 3.65% at January 31, 2006.

In October 2004, the Company’s obligation to repay a yen 5,500,000,000 ($51,530,000 at maturity) borrowing came due and was paid in full, primarily with proceeds from a new yen 5,000,000,000 short-term loan. The yen 5,000,000,000 ($46,845,000 at issuance) short-term loan agreement was entered into in October 2004, had an interest rate of 0.59%, came due in January 2005 and was paid in full with existing funds.

At January 31, 2007, the Company was in compliance with all covenants.

a)		Excludes interest payments on amounts outstanding under available lines of credit, as the outstanding amounts fluctuate based on the Company’s working capital needs. Variable-rate interest payments were estimated based on rates at January 31, 2007. Actual payments will differ based on changes in interest rates.
b)		Other contractual obligations consist primarily of royalty and maintenance commitments.

The summary above does not include cash contributions for the Company’s pension plan and cash payments for other postretirement obligations. The Company plans to contribute approximately $15,000,000 to the pension plan in 2007. However, this expectation is subject to change if actual asset performance is different than the assumed long-term rate of return on pension plan assets. The Company estimates cash payments for postretirement health-care and life insurance benefit obligations to be $1,227,000 in 2007. In addition, the summary above does not include the credit facility that the Company is providing to Tahera Diamond Corporation (“Tahera”), see below.

The following is a summary of the Company’s outstanding borrowings and available capacity under the Credit Facility and other lines of credit at January 31, 2007:

		Total				Borrowings				Available
(in thousands)		capacity				outstanding				capacity
Credit Facility*		$	450,000			$	106,681			$	343,319
Other lines of credit			13,829				–				13,829
		$	463,829			$	106,681			$	357,148

*This facility matures in July 2010 and the capacity may be increased to $500,000,000.

In addition, the Company had letters of credit and financial guarantees of $20,386,000 at January 31, 2007, of which $19,431,000 expires within one year.

In November 2004, the Company entered into an agreement with Tahera, a Canadian diamond mining and exploration company, to purchase or market all of the diamonds to be mined at the Jericho mine, which has been developed and constructed by Tahera in Nunavut, Canada (the “Project”). In consideration of that agreement, the Company provided a credit facility to Tahera which allows Tahera to draw up to CDN$35,000,000 (U.S. $29,653,000 at January 31, 2007) to finance the development and

t i f f a n y & c o .
K - 3 9

construction of the Project. This credit facility matures in December 2013. In 2006, the credit facility was amended to defer the start of principal and interest payments until September 2007 and to include a working capital loan commitment of CDN$8,000,000 (U.S. $6,778,000 at January 31, 2007), which can be borrowed against until December 2007. At January 31, 2007, CDN$44,044,000 (U.S. $37,315,000 at January 31, 2007), including accrued interest of CDN$3,506,000 (U.S. $2,970,000 at January 31, 2007), was outstanding under the credit facility and working capital loan commitment. The Company began purchasing diamonds from Tahera in 2006.

Based on the Company’s financial position at January 31, 2007, management anticipates that cash on hand, internally-generated cash flows and the funds available under the Credit Facility will be sufficient to support the Company’s planned worldwide business expansion, share repurchases, debt service and seasonal working capital increases for the foreseeable future.

Seasonality

As a jeweler and specialty retailer, the Company’s business is seasonal in nature, with the fourth quarter typically representing a proportionally greater percentage of annual sales, earnings from operations and cash flow. Management expects such seasonality to continue.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These principles require management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported and disclosed in the financial statements and related notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Periodically, the Company reviews all significant estimates and assumptions affecting the financial statements and records the effect of any necessary adjustments.

The development and selection of critical accounting estimates and the related disclosures below have been reviewed with the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors. The following critical accounting policies that rely on assumptions and estimates were used in the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements:

Inventory. The Company writes down its inventory for discontinued and slow-moving products. This write-down is equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and its estimated market value, and is based on assumptions about future demand and market conditions. If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory write-downs might be required. The Company has not made any material changes in the accounting methodology used to establish its reserve for discontinued and slow-moving products during the past three years. At January 31, 2007, a 10% change in the reserve for discontinued and slow-moving products would have resulted in a change of $2,235,000 in inventory and cost of sales. The Company’s domestic and foreign branch inventories, excluding Japan, are valued using the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method, and inventories held by foreign subsidiaries and Japan are valued using the average cost method. Fluctuation in inventory levels, along with the costs of raw materials, could affect the carrying value of the Company’s inventory.

Long-lived assets. The Company’s long-lived assets are primarily property, plant and equipment. The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment when management determines that the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable due to events or changes in circumstances. Recoverability of long-lived assets is evaluated by comparing the carrying value of the asset with estimated future undiscounted cash flows. If the comparisons indicate that the value of the asset is not recoverable, an impairment loss is calculated as the difference between the carrying value and the fair value of the asset

t i f f a n y & c o .
K - 4 0

and the loss is recognized during that period. The Company recorded impairment charges of $10,230,000 in 2004 and did not record any impairment charges in 2006 or 2005.

Goodwill. The Company performs its annual impairment evaluation of goodwill during the fourth quarter of its fiscal year or when circumstances otherwise indicate an evaluation should be performed. The evaluation, based upon discounted cash flows, requires management to estimate future cash flows, growth rates and economic and market conditions. The Company recorded impairment charges of $6,893,000 in 2006 and $1,963,000 in 2004. The 2005 evaluation resulted in no impairment charges.

Income taxes. Foreign and domestic tax authorities periodically audit the Company’s income tax returns. These audits often examine and test the factual and legal basis for positions the Company has taken in its tax filings with respect to its tax liabilities, including the timing and amount of deductions and the allocation of income among various tax jurisdictions (“tax filing positions”). Management believes that its tax filing positions are reasonable and legally supportable. However, in specific cases, various tax authorities may take a contrary position. In evaluating the exposures associated with the Company’s various tax filing positions, management records reserves for probable exposures. Earnings could be affected to the extent the Company prevails in matters for which reserves have been established or is required to pay amounts in excess of established reserves. The Company also records valuation allowances when management determines it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets will not be realized in the future.

Employee benefit plans. The Company maintains several pension and retirement plans, as well as provides certain postretirement health-care and life insurance benefits for current and retired employees. The Company makes certain assumptions that affect the underlying estimates related to pension and other postretirement costs. Significant changes in interest rates, the market value of securities and projected health-care costs would require the Company to revise key assumptions and could result in a higher or lower charge to earnings.

The Company used a discount rate of 5.75% to determine its 2006 pension and postretirement expense for all U.S. plans. Holding all other assumptions constant, a 0.5% increase in the discount rate would have decreased 2006 pension and postretirement expenses by $3,640,000 and $201,000. A decrease of 0.5% in the discount rate would have increased the 2006 pension and postretirement expenses by $4,106,000 and $213,000. The discount rate is subject to change each year, consistent with changes in the yield on applicable high-quality, long-term corporate bonds. Management selects a discount rate at which pension and postretirement benefits could be effectively settled based on (i) analysis of expected benefit payments attributable to current employment service and (ii) appropriate yields related to such cash flows.

The Company used an expected long-term rate of return of 7.50% to determine its 2006 pension expense. Holding all other assumptions constant, a 0.5% change in the long-term rate of return would have changed the 2006 pension expense by $780,000. The expected long-term rate of return on pension plan assets is selected by taking into account the average rate of return expected on the funds invested or to be invested to provide for the benefits included in the projected benefit obligation. More specifically, consideration is given to the expected rates of return (including reinvestment asset return rates) based upon the plan’s current asset mix, investment strategy and the historical performance of plan assets.

For postretirement benefit measurement purposes, the following annual rates of increase in the per capita cost of covered health care were assumed for 2007: 9.00% (for pre-age 65 retirees) and 10.00% (for post-age 65 retirees). The rate was assumed to decrease gradually to 4.75% by 2016 (for pre-age 65 retirees) and by 2018 (for post-age 65 retirees) and remain at that level thereafter. A one-percentage-point increase in the assumed health-care cost trend rate would have increased the aggregate service and

t i f f a n y & c o .
K - 4 1

interest cost components of the 2006 postretirement expense by $466,000. Decreasing the assumed health-care cost trend rate by one-percentage-point would have decreased the aggregate service and interest cost components of the 2006 postretirement expense by $357,000.

The Company is exposed to market risk from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates, which could affect its consolidated financial position, earnings and cash flows. The Company manages its exposure to market risk through its regular operating and financing activities and, when deemed appropriate, through the use of derivative financial instruments. The Company uses derivative financial instruments as risk management tools and not for trading or speculative purposes, and does not maintain such instruments that may expose the Company to significant market risk.

Foreign Currency Risk

In Japan, the Company uses yen put options to minimize the effect of a weakening yen on U.S. dollar- denominated transactions. To a lesser extent, the Company uses foreign-exchange forward contracts to protect against changes in local currencies. Gains or losses on these instruments substantially offset losses or gains on the assets, liabilities and transactions being hedged. Management neither foresees nor expects significant changes in foreign currency exposure in the near future.

The fair value of yen put options is sensitive to changes in yen exchange rates. If the market yen exchange rate at the time of an option’s expiration is stronger than the contracted exchange rate, the Company allows the option to expire, limiting its loss to the cost of the option contract. The cost of outstanding option contracts at January 31, 2007 and 2006 was $2,978,000 and $2,828,000. At January 31, 2007 and 2006, the fair value of outstanding yen put options was $6,056,000 and $7,083,000. The fair value of the options was determined using quoted market prices for these instruments. At January 31, 2007 and 2006, a 10% appreciation in yen exchange rates (i.e. a strengthing yen) from the prevailing market rates would have resulted in a fair value of $563,000 and $1,083,000. At January 31, 2007 and 2006, a 10% depreciation in yen exchange rates (i.e. a weakening yen) from the prevailing market rates would have resulted in a fair value of $16,784,000 and $15,644,000.

At January 31, 2007 and 2006, the Company had $5,885,000 and $7,481,000 of outstanding forward foreign-exchange contracts, which subsequently matured in February and March 2007 and February 2006, respectively. Due to the short-term nature of the Company’s forward foreign-exchange contracts, the book value of the underlying assets and liabilities approximates fair value.

Interest Rate Risk

The Company uses interest-rate swap contracts related to certain debt arrangements to manage its net exposure to interest rate changes. The interest-rate swap contracts effectively convert fixed-rate obligations to floating-rate instruments. Additionally, since the fair value of the Company’s fixed-rate long-term debt is sensitive to interest rate changes, the interest-rate swap contracts serve as a hedge to changes in the fair value of these debt instruments. A 100 basis-point increase in interest rates at January 31, 2007 and 2006 would have decreased the market value of the Company’s fixed-rate long-term debt, including the effect of the interest-rate swap, by $8,652,000 and $11,484,000. A 100 basis-point decrease in interest rates at January 31, 2007 and 2006 would have increased the market value of the Company’s fixed-rate long-term debt, including the effect of the interest-rate swap, by $9,006,000 and $11,868,000.

Management does not expect significant changes in exposure to interest rate fluctuations, nor in market risk-management practices.

Item 8.   Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of Tiffany & Co.:

We have completed our integrated audits of Tiffany & Co.’s consolidated financial statements and of its internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2007, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Our opinions, based on our audits, are presented below.

Consolidated financial statements

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the related consolidated statements of earnings, of stockholders’ equity and comprehensive earnings, and of cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Tiffany & Co. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) at January 31, 2007 and 2006, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended January 31, 2007 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In addition, in our opinion, the financial statement schedule listed in the index appearing under Item 15(a) (2) presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein when read in conjunction with the related consolidated financial statements. These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit of financial statements includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

As discussed in note B, due to the implementation of SFAS No. 158, Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R), the Company changed the manner in which it accounts for pensions and other benefits as of January 31, 2007.

Internal control over financial reporting

Also, in our opinion, management’s assessment, included in Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A, that the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2007 based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on those criteria. Furthermore, in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2007, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the COSO. The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express opinions on management’s assessment and on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit of internal control over financial reporting in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and

perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. An audit of internal control over financial reporting includes obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, evaluating management’s assessment, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures as we consider necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinions.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
