April comparable store sales results of 2 percent were measured against last year’s incredibly strong increase of 12 percent. Total revenue growth for the month was below the Company’s year-to-date level of 24 percent due to lower comparable store sales in the retail business coupled with the extraordinarily difficult comparison to April of last year when total revenue grew at 36 percent, the second highest monthly growth rate in the last two years.
“We believe April was an aberration caused by the difficult year ago comparisons, the overall slowing of the retail environment, and the timing of shipments in our non-retail business,” stated Orin Smith, president and ceo. “We are encouraged by the current trends in our business and fully expect that total revenue growth will be in the 20-25% range for the remainder of the fiscal year and remain confident that we will achieve our goal of 23-25% total revenue growth for the full year.” Additionally, Smith indicated that April’s results were incorporated into the Company’s most recent guidance and reiterated the Company’s fiscal 2001 earnings per share target of $0.46.
