Robert Greenberg, the Company's CEO, commented: "This is a great start to the year: record first quarter sales, a phenomenal product offering that now includes three new lines - Kitson footwear, multi-platinum recording artist The Game's signature 310 line and Siren by Mark Nason - and new print and television advertising campaigns.
This growing stable of brands, which now also includes Zoo York Footwear, allows us to reach into nearly every market to meet most consumers' footwear needs. Each has its own reputation and following, and they have become solid businesses. We are very pleased with our firmly established SKECHERS lines and our newer brands, and we believe our great start is a step toward a great year and of more good things to come."
Mr. Weinberg continued: "We believe the momentum we are seeing will continue into the second quarter based on key indicators including a backlog and strong retail comp sales. Our consistent performance over the past two years combined with our new position as a leading billion dollar brand marks a new era for SKECHERS -- one of increased profitability and continued growth."
