Commenting on the results, Mike Stornant, senior vice president and chief financial officer of Wolverine said, “This last quarter was incredibly volatile for the whole industry as global economic pressures worsened, holiday sales were tepid and unseasonably warm weather impacted many regions. We foreshadowed these challenging conditions in mid-September.”

“Since early September, we’ve made important leadership and organisational changes focused on fixing under-performing areas of the business. We are confident we are well-positioned to navigate the challenging global landscape in front of us,” he added. (MCJ)
