SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements often use words such as "will", "anticipate", "estimate", "expect", "should", "may", "believe" and other words and terms of similar meaning or reference future dates. Forward-looking statements include any statements related to our expectations regarding the effectiveness of our investments, future performance or market position, the promotional environment, our utilization of temporary clearance locations, storage and processing capacity, inventory levels, inventory carrying costs, shipment timing, consumer and customer spending and preferences, freight charges, scale efficiencies, inflationary pressures, foreign currency translation, the geopolitical environment, consumer and customer behaviors and expectations, the regulatory environment, the impact of seasonal trends, materiality of legal matters, risk management strategies, the performance of our profit improvement program, capital expenditures, our short and long-term cash needs and our ability to meet those needs, amortization expenses, and maturities of liabilities.

These forward-looking statements, and others we make from time to time expressed in good faith, are believed to have a reasonable basis; however, each forward-looking statement involves risks and uncertainties. Many factors may cause actual results to differ materially from projected results in forward-looking statements, including the risks described in Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Forward-looking statements are inherently less reliable than historical information. Except as required by law, we do not undertake any duty to update forward-looking statements after the date they are made or to conform them to actual results or to changes in circumstances or to reflect changes in events, circumstances or expectations. New factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for us to predict or assess the effects of all such factors or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement.
