Highlight of Business Operations:

The addition of $31.3 million and $20.2 million of net sales attributable to growth in our Tommy Hilfiger North America and Tommy Hilfiger International segments, respectively. The revenue increase in Tommy Hilfiger North America was driven by retail comparable store sales growth of 16%. The revenue increase in the Tommy Hilfiger International segment was principally due to high single-digit growth in our European wholesale business, combined with retail comparable store sales growth of 5% for our Tommy Hilfiger Europe retail business, partially offset by a negative impact of approximately $20 million related to foreign currency translation.

Royalty, advertising and other revenue in the first quarter of 2012 increased by $2.4 million to $114.6 million as compared to $112.2 million in the prior year s first quarter. Despite challenging business for the jeanswear and underwear product categories in Europe and a planned reduction in United States jeanswear sold to secondary channels, royalty revenue within the Calvin Klein Licensing segment increased 1%, including the negative impact of approximately 1% related to foreign currency translation. Tommy Hilfiger royalty revenue increased by $2.9 million, or 25%, compared to the prior year s first quarter, due

Our revenue for the full year 2012 is expected to increase 1% to 2% as compared to the 2011 amount of $5.891 billion. This includes the negative revenue impact of approximately 4%, of which approximately $150 million is attributable to projected foreign currency translation and approximately $100 million is attributable to the exit from the Timberland men s and Izod women s wholesale sportswear businesses. Revenue for the Tommy Hilfiger business is expected to increase 2% to 3% as compared to the 2011 amount of $3.051 billion, including the negative impact of approximately 5% due to projected foreign currency translation. Revenue for the Calvin Klein business is expected to grow 6% to 7% as compared to the 2011 amount of $1.065 billion. Calvin Klein royalty revenue is expected to be negatively impacted by foreign currency translation, the upcoming reacquisition of the ck Calvin Klein European apparel and accessories licenses, challenging business for the jeanswear and underwear product categories in Europe and a reduction of United States jeanswear sales to secondary channels. Revenue for the Heritage Brand business is expected to decrease 4% to 5% as compared to the 2011 amount of $1.775 billion, including the negative impact of approximately 6% due to the previously mentioned exit of businesses.

SG&A expenses in the first quarter of 2012 were $606.5 million, or 42.5% of total revenue, as compared to $591.9 million, or 43.2% of total revenue, in the first quarter of the prior year. The 70 basis point decrease in SG&A expenses as a percentage of total revenue was due primarily to a decrease in one-time integration and restructuring costs.

We currently anticipate that our 2012 effective tax rate will be between 23.5% and 24.0%. As compared to the United States statutory tax rate, the 2012 effective tax rate is expected to be lower as a result of being favorably impacted by growth in our Tommy Hilfiger International segment, a significant portion of which is subject to favorable tax rates. This international growth is also expected to favorably impact the 2012 effective tax rate as compared to 2011, for which the effective income tax rate was 26.3%. In addition, the 2012 effective tax rate as compared to 2011 is expected to be favorably impacted by the continuation of tax synergies resulting from the Tommy Hilfiger acquisition and the absence of foreign earnings taxed in the United States. It is possible that our estimated rate could change from the mix of international and domestic pre-tax earnings, or from discrete events arising from specific transactions, audits by tax authorities or the receipt of new information.
