Neal Black, President and CEO of JoS. A. Bank Clothiers, Inc. "The fourth quarter, compared to a very strong performance last year, has started out more slowly than we had planned.

November comparable store sales declined, while our direct segment sales increased, compared to the same period last year. As a result, we have adjusted our December merchandising and marketing plans for stores. We believe our efforts will be effective and appealing to our customers. Therefore we remain cautiously optimistic for the outcome of this year's fourth quarter," continued Mr. Black.
