In the coming year, we expect to deliver strong results with increased revenue, expanding gross margins and improved operating margins, while making significant investments in our lifestyle brands."

Mr. Lanier continued, "During the first eight weeks of fiscal 2011, our direct to consumer results across all brands have been stellar. We believe the strategic moves we made last year have positioned us well for 2011 and beyond. The sale of Oxford Apparel and the addition of Lilly Pulitzer have not only left us with a collection of great aspirational lifestyle brands, but also the balance sheet and financial flexibility to support the sustained growth we expect from these businesses."
