Our focus remains full price profitable sales, improving our financial performance through margin, cost and markdown management. We have made good progress. This has enabled us to delay the Summer Sale by 18 days. We go on Sale tomorrow with 40% less stock than last year.
"While the trading environment remains very challenging, better buying, stock and cost control should enable us to make further progress."
