DOCUMENTS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE None. Explanatory Note Michaels Stores Inc. (“Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 (this “Form 10-K/A”) to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 2, 2013, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 15, 2013 (the “Form 10- K”), for the purpose of correcting historical share-based compensation expense caused by the Company’s immediate repurchase of shares following the exercise of stock options under its equity incentive plans. Since the participants held such shares for less than six months following exercise (“immature shares”), liability accounting applies to the plan. The Company has determined its previously issued audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended February 2, 2013 and January 28, 2012, contained an error with respect to ASC 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation. Specifically, former participants in the Company’s Equity Incentive Plan and its successor Plan (The Michaels Companies, Inc. (“Parent”) Equity Incentive Plan, together the “Plan”) exercised stock options upon their termination from the Company, and the Company repurchased the immature shares. The Company consistently repurchased shares in this manner and therefore, under accounting rules, established a pattern of repurchasing immature shares during the third quarter of 2011. The Company determined all stock options should have been treated as liability awards in accordance with the rules of ASC 718-10-25-9. Under liability accounting, the Company re-measures the fair value of stock compensation each period and recognizes changes in fair value as awards vest and until the award is settled. The Company originally recognized expense ratably over the vesting period based on the grant date fair value of the option in accordance with the fixed method of accounting. The Company determined the accounting error was material to fiscal 2011 and fiscal 2012 financial statements and those financial statements required restatement. The non-cash impact to share-based compensation expense was $18 million ($11, net of taxes) and $32 million ($20, net of taxes) for the fiscal years ended February 2, 2013 and January 28, 2012, respectively. As part of the restatement, the Company also recorded other adjustments related to merchandise inventories and closed store reserve which were previously determined to be immaterial to the respective periods. In total, the adjustments resulted in a decline of net income by $14 million for fiscal year ended February 2, 2013, and $19 million for fiscal year ended January 28, 2012. In connection with the restatement of our consolidated financial statements described herein, management re-evaluated the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting and disclosure controls and share repurchase procedures. It was determined a material weakness existed beginning in the third quarter of 2011 due to management’s failure to identify the accounting implications under ASC 718 related to the Company’s practice of immediately repurchasing immature shares following option exercises by employees upon termination of employment, as well as its failure to follow internal controls relating to the repurchase of shares. For a discussion of management’s consideration of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and the material weakness identified, see Item 4. Management will implement the following procedures related to this material weakness and expects testing of the operating effectiveness to be successfully completed during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013. • Establish and monitor additional internal control procedures related to share repurchases to ensure all required approvals are received prior to repurchase, including our Board, CEO and CFO. In addition, the accounting department will review repurchases for appropriate accounting under ASC 718 prior to a commitment to repurchase. • Perform a formal review with the Company’s officers and Board members responsible for the administration of stock repurchases regarding the terms of the Plan and the Stockholders Agreement with recurring training when responsibilities change. • Provide enhanced education of the Company’s financial reporting staff on ASC 718 and ensure the Company compiles with all aspects of the accounting standard. Additionally, the Company will distribute formal communication to all option holders and stockholders emphasizing the exercise terms under the Plan and related option agreements, and the call feature repurchase restrictions contained in the Stockholders Agreement. Consequently, the Company expects to account for share-based compensation under the equity method beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013.
