Highlight of Business Operations:

Consolidated net sales in the third quarter of 2010 were $319.0 million, a decrease of $7.2 million, or 2.2%, compared to $326.2 million in the third quarter of 2009.

Excluding the unfavorable impact of foreign currency fluctuations of $5.8 million, consolidated net sales in the third quarter of 2010 were essentially unchanged from the third quarter of 2009, as lower net sales in the U.S. were largely offset by higher net sales in the Companys Latin America and Europe, Middle East and Africa regions. Net sales in the Companys Canada and Asia Pacific regions in the third quarter of 2010 were essentially unchanged from the third quarter of 2009. Excluding the favorable impact of foreign currency fluctuations of $2.7 million, consolidated net sales in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010 were essentially unchanged from the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009, as lower net sales in the U.S. and the Companys Asia Pacific region were largely offset by higher net sales in the Companys Latin America and Europe, Middle East and Africa regions.

Consolidated net income for the third quarter of 2010 was $12.5 million, compared to $23.1 million in the third quarter of 2009. The decline in consolidated net income in the third quarter of 2010, compared to the third quarter of 2009, was primarily due to $13.9 million of higher SG&A expenses, driven primarily by $16.3 million of higher advertising expenses to support the Companys brands. In the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010, consolidated net income was $31.1 million, compared to $36.0 million in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009. The decline in consolidated net income in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010 compared to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009 was primarily due to:

Consolidated net sales in the third quarter of 2010 were $319.0 million, a decrease of $7.2 million, or 2.2%, compared to $326.2 million in the third quarter of 2009. Excluding the unfavorable impact of foreign currency fluctuations of $5.8 million, consolidated net sales in the third quarter of 2010 were essentially unchanged from the third quarter of 2009, as lower net sales of Revlon and Almay color cosmetics were largely offset by higher net sales of Revlon ColorSilk hair color and fragrances.

Excluding the favorable impact of foreign currency fluctuations of $2.7 million, consolidated net sales in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010 were essentially unchanged from the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009, as lower net sales of Almay color cosmetics, due to the cycling of the 2009 launch of Almay Pure Blends, and lower net sales of Mitchum anti-perspirant deodorant, were largely offset by higher net sales of Revlon ColorSilk hair color, fragrances and Revlon color cosmetics.
