Forward-LookingStatements
Certain statements included in this Current Report, including Exhibit 99.1 hereto, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements are made based on our expectations and beliefs concerning future events impacting the Company and therefore, involve several risks and uncertainties. You can identify these statements by the fact that they use words such as “will,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “should,” and “may” and other words and terms of similar meaning or use of future dates; however, the absence of these words or similar expressions does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. All statements regarding the Company’s plans, objectives, projections and expectations relating to the Company’s operations or financial performance, and assumptions related thereto are forward-looking statements. We caution that forward-looking statements are not guarantees and that actual results could differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. Potential risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results of operations or financial condition of the Company to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, risks arising from the widespread outbreak of an illness or any other communicable disease, or any other public health crisis; the level of consumer demand for apparel and accessories; disruption to the Company’s distribution system; the financial strength of the Company’s customers; fluctuations in the price, availability and quality of raw materials and contracted products; disruption and volatility in the global capital and credit markets; the Company’s response to changing fashion trends, evolving consumer preferences and changing patterns of consumer behavior; intense competition from online retailers; manufacturing and product innovation; increasing pressure on margins; the Company’s ability to implement its business strategy; the Company’s ability to grow its wholesale and direct-to-consumer businesses; retail industry changes and challenges; the Company’s and its vendors’ ability to maintain the strength and security of information technology systems; the risk that the Company’s facilities and systems and those of our third-party service providers may be vulnerable to and unable to anticipate or detect data security breaches and data or financial loss; the Company’s ability to properly collect, use, manage and secure consumer and employee data; stability of the Company’s manufacturing facilities and foreign suppliers; continued use by the Company’s suppliers of ethical business practices; the Company’s ability to accurately forecast demand for products; continuity of members of the Company’s management; the Company’s ability to protect trademarks and other intellectual property rights; possible goodwill and other asset impairment; the Company’s ability to execute and integrate acquisitions; changes in tax laws and liabilities; legal, regulatory, political and economic risks; adverse or unexpected weather conditions; the Company’s indebtedness and its ability to obtain financing on favorable terms, if needed, could prevent the Company from fulfilling its financial obligations; and climate change and increased focus on sustainability issues. More information on potential factors that could affect the Company’s financial results is included from time to time in its reports filed with the SEC, including Annual Reports on Form 10-K, and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and Current Reports on Form 8-K.
