Management Comments
Jeffrey Lubell, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Merchant of True Religion Apparel, commented: "The introduction of new jeans and related sportswear and licensed merchandise was both the foundation and catalyst for another year of record sales and profitability for True Religion. The growth of our U.S. consumer direct platform as well as the ongoing development of the True Religion brand in international markets provided incremental sales and earnings over the past year and should continue to offer our company future growth opportunities. We were also pleased to have exceeded our 2009 sales and earnings goals and delivered against our strategic and financial objectives despite the tremendous changes in the global macro-economy that occurred throughout last year."
Mr. Lubell continued, "We recognize the importance of always looking to evolve the organization in a manner that will best position the True Religion brand for healthy long-term growth. We believe our performance in 2009 reinforces our strategy: to continually design and introduce trend-setting jeans and related sportswear; to balance our distribution between wholesale and consumer direct; and to increase our presence in the international market, which we believe has the potential of being larger than the domestic market. We also believe the strategic investments in our personnel, systems and infrastructure that we made over the past year will position our organization to take advantage of the many growth opportunities we have in front of us."
