Six-Month Results
For the six months ended July 30, 2005, DSW had net income of $16.2 million on net sales of $558.0 million, compared with net income for the comparable period last year of $16.7 million on net sales of $467.0 million. The fiscal 2005 six-month results include $6.6 million of interest expense on the dividend notes to RVI that were repaid in full from the net proceeds of the initial public offering, and $6.5 million for the accrual for losses associated with the data theft announced in March 2005.

Diluted earnings per share for the six months ended July 30, 2005 were $0.53 compared with $0.60 for the comparable six-month period last year. After adjusting for the dividend interest, the data theft accrual and the increase in shares as a result of the initial public offering, pro forma net income for the six months was $24.1 million, or $0.55 per share, compared with $16.7 million, or $0.38 per share, for the six-month period last year. The exhibit at the end of this release reconciles net income for the 2005 and 2004 six-month periods to non-GAAP pro forma net income.
