“For the full year, revenue increased 18%, adjusted operating earnings increased by more than 20%, and we generated over $450 million of cash from operations. Relative to the outlook we provided following the Helly Hansen acquisition, we outperformed our commitments across every measure.”

“For the balance of the call, I'd like to focus on three topics. First, I'll provide an update on the acquisition of Helly Hansen. Second, I'll review the highlights of our first quarter results.”

“We are pleased with our strong finish to the year, which came in above our outlook driven by better-than-expected revenue growth, earnings, and cash flow. In what remains an uneven environment, we are operating from a position of strength and executing well.”
