That, plus the sluggish economies in Mexico
and Central and South America, and our preference to forego certain
sales in these regions due to credit risk, are reasons for the decline
in mass market sales. Our
accounts receivable and inventories increased 8% and 2%, respectively,
from December 31, 2004, which is quite modest considering that net
sales for the current first quarter was up 22% from last year first
quarter and 10% compared to the fourth quarter of 2004. Net income rose 13% to
$15. The increase in S,G+A as a percent of sales is primarily due
to the higher Burberry royalty rate that went into effect on July 1,
2004 and, to a lesser extent, because of increased expenses incurred
in connection with compliance with the new Sarbanes-Oxley internal
controls requirements."
He went on to say , "The decline in fourth quarter net income and
diluted earnings per share were also attributable to several other
factors including: net interest expense in the fourth quarter of 2004
versus net interest income in the final quarter of 2003, and a
substantially higher fourth quarter tax rate . At December 31,
2004, working capital aggregated $130 million and we had a working
capital ratio of 3. This conference call will also be distributed
