Additional Results and 2008 Outlook

Earnings and Effective Tax Rate

The company stated that it expects diluted earnings per share of $1.20 to $1.27 for fiscal year 2008. This guidance takes into account a range of outcomes dependent in part on product acceptance and the volatile macroeconomic environment.

The company’s fourth quarter tax rate was 38.8 percent. The effective tax rate for fiscal year 2007 was 38.3 percent. The company expects the effective tax rate to be about 39 percent for fiscal year 2008.

Cash

The company ended the fourth quarter with $1.9 billion in cash and short-term investments. Fiscal year 2007 free cash flow, defined as net cash provided by operating activities less purchases of property and equipment, was an inflow of $1.4 billion compared with $678 million last year. The increase was driven primarily by lower inventory levels as well as changes in vendor payment terms. The company expects free cash flow to be about $900 million in fiscal year 2008. Please see the reconciliation of free cash flow, a non-GAAP financial measure, to a GAAP financial measure in the table at the end of this release.

During the fourth quarter, the company completed its $1.5 billion share repurchase program and repurchased about 30 million shares for a total of $613 million in the quarter.

In a separate press release today, the company announced that its board of directors authorized an additional $1 billion share repurchase program, and that it has entered into purchase agreements with individual members of the Fisher family whose ownership represents approximately 16 percent of the company’s outstanding shares. The company expects that about $158 million (approximately 16 percent) of the $1 billion share repurchase program will be purchased from these Fisher family members.

Dividends

In a separate press release today, the company announced that it intends to increase the annual dividend per share from $0.32 in fiscal year 2007 to $0.34 for fiscal year 2008. The dividend is expected to be paid quarterly in April, July, October, and January.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release and related conference call and webcast contain unaudited financial information for the fiscal year and fourth quarter of 2007 and forward-looking statements within the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than those that are purely historical are forward-looking statements. Words such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” and similar expressions also identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include statements regarding: (i) diluted earnings per share for fiscal year 2008; (ii) effective tax rate for fiscal year 2008; (iii) free cash flow for fiscal year 2008; (iv) net cash provided by operating activities for fiscal year 2008; (v) share repurchases, including repurchases from members of the Fisher family; (vi) dividend per share for fiscal year 2008 and timing of payments; (vii) operating margin for fiscal year 2008; (viii) year-over-year change in inventory per square foot at the end of the first quarter of fiscal year 2008; (ix) interest expense for fiscal year 2008; (x) depreciation and amortization for fiscal year 2008; (xi) capital expenditures for fiscal year 2008; (xii) store openings, closings, repositions, and remodels, and weightings by brand; (xiii) real estate square footage for fiscal year 2008; and (xiv) commitment to distributing excess cash.

Because these forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, there are important factors that could cause the company’s actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. These factors include, without limitation, the following: the risk that adjustments to the company’s unaudited financial statements may be identified through the course of the company’s independent registered public accounting firm completing its integrated audit of the company’s financial statements and financial controls; the risk that additional information may arise during the company’s close process or as a result of subsequent events that would require the company to make adjustments to the financial information; the risk that the adoption of new accounting pronouncements will impact future results; the risk that the company will be unsuccessful in gauging fashion trends and changing consumer preferences; the highly competitive nature of the company’s business in the U.S. and internationally and its dependence on consumer spending patterns, which are influenced by numerous other factors; the risk that the company will be unsuccessful in identifying and negotiating new store locations effectively; the risk that comparable store sales and margins will experience fluctuations; the risk that the company will be unsuccessful in implementing its strategic, operating and people initiatives; the risk that adverse changes in the company’s credit ratings may have a negative impact on its financing costs and structure in future periods; the risk that trade matters, events causing disruptions in product shipments from China and other foreign countries, or IT systems changes may disrupt the company’s supply chain or operations; the risk that acts or omissions by the company’s third party vendors could have a negative impact on the company’s reputation or operations; the risk that the company will not be successful in defending various proceedings, lawsuits, disputes, claims, and audits; the risk that the company does not repurchase some or all of the shares it anticipates purchasing pursuant to its repurchase program; and the risk that either the company or members of the Fisher family terminate the repurchase agreements; any of which could impact net sales, costs and expenses, and/or planned strategies. Additional information regarding factors that could cause results to differ can be found in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 3, 2007. Readers should also consult the company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended November 3, 2007.

Future economic and industry trends that could potentially impact net sales and profitability are difficult to predict. These forward-looking statements are based on information as of February 28, 2008 and the company assumes no obligation to publicly update or revise its forward-looking statements even if experience or future changes make it clear that any projected results expressed or implied therein will not be realized.

RECONCILIATION OF DILUTED EARNINGS PER SHARE ON A GAAP BASIS TO DILUTED EARNINGS PER SHARE ON A NON-GAAP BASIS

	52 Weeks Ended February 2, 2008
Diluted earnings per share on a GAAP basis	$	1.05
Add: loss from the discontinued operation of Forth & Towne (a)		0.04
Add: expenses related to the cost reduction initiatives (b)		0.03
Diluted earnings per share on a non-GAAP basis (c)	$	1.12

(a) In fiscal year 2007, the company closed its Forth & Towne store locations. Forth & Towne is presented as a discontinued operation in the accompanying consolidated statements of earnings.

(b) In fiscal year 2007, the company recognized $34 million of expenses on a pre-tax basis relating to its cost reduction initiatives, of which $32 million were operating expenses and $2 million were cost of goods sold and occupancy expenses. The majority of these expenses are related to severance benefits to employees at headquarter locations.

(c) Diluted earnings per share excluding the amounts noted above is a non-GAAP financial measure. We believe this is an important metric as it represents our diluted earnings per share from ongoing operations. However, this non-GAAP financial measure is not intended to supersede or replace our GAAP results.

RECONCILIATION OF NET CASH PROVIDED BY OPERATING ACTIVITIES TO FREE CASH FLOW

($ in millions)	52 Weeks Ended February 2, 2008			53 Weeks Ended February 3, 2007
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	2,081		$	1,250

RECONCILIATION OF EXPECTED NET CASH PROVIDED BY OPERATING ACTIVITIES TO EXPECTED FREE CASH FLOW

Expected net cash provided by operating activities	$	1,400
Less: expected purchases of property and equipment		(500	)
Expected free cash flow (d)	$	900

(d) Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure. We believe free cash flow is an important metric as it represents a measure of how much cash a company has available after the deduction of capital expenditures as we require regular capital expenditures to build and maintain stores and purchase new equipment to keep the business growing. We use this metric internally, as we believe our sustained ability to increase free cash flow is an important driver of value creation. However, this non-GAAP financial measure is not intended to supersede or replace our GAAP results.

RECONCILIATION OF OPERATING EXPENSES ON A GAAP BASIS TO OPERATING EXPENSES ON A NON-GAAP BASIS

($ in millions)	52 Weeks Ended February 2, 2008			53 Weeks Ended February 3, 2007
Operating expenses on a GAAP basis	$	4,377		$	4,432
Less: operating expenses related to cost reduction initiatives (b)		(32	)		—

Add: unredeemed gift card income (f)		—			31
Operating expenses on a non-GAAP basis (g)	$	4,345		$	4,477

(e) $14 million of income was recognized in fiscal year 2006 relating to the Visa/Mastercard litigation settlement.

(f) $31 million of income was recognized in fiscal year 2006 relating to the change in the company’s estimate of the elapsed time for recording income associated with unredeemed gift cards.

(g) Operating expenses excluding the amounts noted above is a non-GAAP financial measure. It is intended to supplement the user’s overall understanding of our current financial performance and our prospects for the future. We use this metric internally and adjust for these items because they are not essential to evaluating the ongoing operations of our business. However, this non-GAAP financial measure is not intended to supersede or replace our GAAP results.
