Investor Information
Cautionary statement regarding forward-looking information:
The transcripts or recordings of our quarterly conference calls made available on this website contain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the securities laws, including statements regarding our planned retail expansion, sales and revenue growth and financial performance. These statements are subject to a number of uncertainties and risks. Actual results may differ materially. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from estimates or projections contained in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, our inability to realize the full value of merchandise currently in inventory as a result of sluggish sales, ever-changing customer tastes and buying trends; unanticipated increases in mailing and printing costs; the cost of additional overhead that may be required to expand our brand; unexpected or increased costs or delays in the development and expansion of our retail chain and our potential inability to recover these costs due to sluggish sales; the inherent difficulty in forecasting consumer buying patterns and trends and the possibility that any recent improvements in our product margins, or in customer response to our merchandise, may not be sustained; our inability to continue to fund our retail expansion with operating cash as a result of either lower sales or higher than anticipated costs, or both; uncertainties related to our shift to a triple-channel model, in particular, the effects of shifting patterns of e-commerce or retail purchases versus catalog purchases; and such other factors as are discussed in our Form 10-Q Quarterly Reports and in our most recent Form 10-K Annual Report filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). We provide a detailed discussion of risk factors in periodic SEC filings, and you are encouraged to review these filings.
Furthermore, the transcripts or recordings of our quarterly conference calls made available on this website speak only as of the date of the respective calls. Business conditions, including economic and industry trends that affect our financial performance, change over time. We undertake no obligation to update our forward-looking statements to reflect events after the date of the calls. Consequently, no one should assume later in the quarter that the forward-looking statements provided in any call are still valid. |
