COMPANY MAINTAINS FULL YEAR 2008 EARNINGS GUIDANCE

New York, New York – Phillips-Van Heusen Corporation [NYSE: PVH] reported 2008 second quarter and year to date results.

For the second quarter of 2008:

·

Earnings per share excluding the operating results and exit costs associated with the Company’s Geoffrey Beene outlet retail division was $0.66, which was at the top end of the Company’s previous guidance and exceeded the consensus estimate. GAAP earnings per share was $0.56.  (Please see reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP earnings per share for 2008 later in this release.)  The prior year’s second quarter earnings per share was $0.68.

·

The current year’s second quarter includes approximately $5 million, or $0.06 per share, of start-up costs associated with new businesses.  

·

Total revenue increased 2% to $561.0 million from $552.4 million in the prior year’s second quarter.  

1

For the six months of 2008:

·

Earnings per share excluding the operating results and exit costs associated with the Company’s Geoffrey Beene outlet retail division was $1.55.  GAAP earnings per share was $1.45.  (Please see reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP earnings per share for 2008 later in this release.)  For the prior year’s six month period, earnings per share was $1.60.

·

The current year’s six months includes approximately $12 million, or $0.14 per share, of start-up costs associated with new businesses.

·

Total revenue increased 4% to $1,186.7 million from $1,144.3 million in the prior year’s six month period.  

Second Quarter Results

The Calvin Klein licensing business continued its strong performance during the second quarter and posted revenue and earnings growth of 30% and 47%, respectively.  This performance was driven by continued growth across virtually all product categories and regions of the globe, with jeans and underwear performing exceptionally well.  This growth mostly offset earnings decreases experienced by the Company’s combined wholesale and retail heritage brand businesses.

Revenue in the second quarter of 2008 decreased 2% in the Company’s combined wholesale and retail businesses.  The Company’s Calvin Klein outlet retail business continued to exhibit strong sales performance, and revenue benefited from the addition of sales associated with the new Timberland wholesale men’s sportswear business and the new Calvin Klein specialty retail stores.  These increases were more than offset by decreases in the Company’s heritage brand businesses, which continued to be adversely affected by the difficult macroeconomic retail environment.  Total outlet retail comparable store sales in the quarter decreased 2%, with the Calvin Klein outlet retail business achieving comparable store sales growth of 9% and the heritage brand outlet retail businesses experiencing a comparable store sales decline of 5%.  

2

Earnings in the second quarter of 2008 were negatively impacted by approximately $5 million, or $0.06 per share, of start-up costs associated with the Company’s Timberland wholesale men’s sportswear business and Calvin Klein specialty retail stores.  In addition, the recent bankruptcy filings of certain of our wholesale customers resulted in a sales shortfall of approximately $6 million in the quarter and negatively impacted pre-tax earnings by approximately $3 million, or $0.03 per share, which includes the related reserves for uncollectible receivables.

Six Months Results

For the six months in 2008, earnings growth in the Company’s Calvin Klein licensing business was 32%, which partially offset earnings decreases in the Company’s heritage brand outlet retail and sportswear businesses.  Earnings for the six months in 2008 were also negatively impacted by approximately $12 million, or $0.14 per share, of start-up costs associated with the Company’s Timberland wholesale men’s sportswear business and Calvin Klein specialty retail stores.  

For the six months, total revenue increased 4% to $1,186.7 million in 2008 from $1,144.3 million for the same period in 2007, driven by revenue growth of 24% in the Company’s Calvin Klein licensing business.

Balance Sheet

The Company ended the second quarter with $260.5 million in cash, a decrease of $105.8 million from the prior year’s second quarter. This decrease was driven by the completion of the Company’s stock repurchase program during the fourth quarter of 2007, in which the Company utilized $200 million of cash to repurchase approximately 5.2 million shares of its common stock.  Inventories ended the quarter on plan and were up 1% compared to the prior year’s second quarter.  Inventories at the end of the second quarter of 2008 include inventories for the new Timberland wholesale men’s sportswear business, the new Calvin Klein specialty retail stores and the recently-acquired Calvin Klein Collection wholesale business, which total  approximately $19

3

million, or a 6% increase in total inventories from the prior year.  Excluding the inventories of these new businesses, inventories were down 5%, which reflects the Company’s continued focus on maintaining clean inventory levels.

CEO Comments

Commenting on these results, Emanuel Chirico, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, noted, “We are very pleased with our second quarter results, particularly given the current economic environment.  Calvin Klein remains a key driver of our growth and profitability as it continues to outperform our expectations, both internationally and domestically.  The broad global presence and continued international growth of Calvin Klein has helped to offset the impact of the economic downturn in the U.S. on our heritage brand businesses.”

Mr. Chirico added, “We have been aggressive in taking action to keep inventory levels clean heading into the second half of the year.  This has been a benefit to gross margin rates, even as sales have been under pressure.  In addition, our exit plan for our Geoffrey Beene outlet retail division is proceeding well.  We are on track to convert 25 of the Geoffrey Beene outlet retail stores into Calvin Klein outlet retail stores, which will accelerate the growth of our most productive and profitable outlet retail division, and help us to reach more quickly our desired number of Calvin Klein outlet retail stores.  Further, in the second quarter, we launched our Timberland wholesale men’s sportswear line. This outdoor inspired sportswear brand has strong consumer awareness and complements and expands our existing stable of strong brands.”

Mr. Chirico concluded, “We continue to invest in our heritage brands, which, despite being impacted by the difficult economic environment, continue to generate strong profits and cash flows.  Our balance sheet remains strong, which provides us with the flexibility to pursue opportunities that will enhance our business model and contribute to our future growth."

2008 Guidance

Total revenue for the full year 2008 is projected to be approximately $2.56 billion to $2.58 billion, an increase of approximately 6% over 2007.  For the full year, the Company is currently projecting revenue in the Calvin Klein licensing business to grow approximately 15%.  Total revenue for the full year in the Company’s combined wholesale and retail businesses is planned to grow between 3% and 5%.  

For the third quarter, revenue is expected to be $730 million to $740 million in 2008, or an increase of 5% to 6% over the third quarter of 2007.  For the third quarter, revenue in the Calvin Klein licensing business is expected to grow 9% to 11%, and revenue in the Company’s combined wholesale and retail businesses is expected to grow between 2% and 4%.

Comparable store sales growth in the Calvin Klein outlet retail business is planned at approximately 7% for the second half and approximately 8% for the full year.  Comparable store sales in the heritage brand outlet retail businesses are planned to decrease between 2% and 3% for the second half and between 3% and 4% for the full year.  Comparable store sales for the Company’s total outlet retail business are projected to be flat to down 1% for the second half and full year.  While second half projections for comparable store sales are planned to improve in comparison to first half results, the projected improvement is due to weaker sales comparisons in the second half of the prior year.

Excluding the operating results and exit costs associated with the Company’s Geoffrey Beene outlet retail division, the Company is maintaining its previous projection for full year earnings per share to be in a range of $3.32 to $3.41.  (Please see reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP earnings per share estimates later in this release.)  Full year earnings for the Calvin Klein licensing business are expected to grow between 20% and 25%, while operating margins for the Company’s combined wholesale and retail businesses will continue to be impacted by pressure at retail and are projected to decrease 100 to 130 basis points (excluding a projected 150 basis point decline

5

attributable to the operating results and exit costs associated with the Company’s Geoffrey Beene outlet retail division).  (Please see reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP operating margin estimates later in this release).

Excluding the operating results and exit costs associated with the Company’s Geoffrey Beene outlet retail division, third quarter earnings per share is expected to be $1.07 to $1.13.  (Please see reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP earnings per share estimates later in this release.)  Earnings in the third quarter will be impacted by a shift in advertising spending, as approximately $10 million is anticipated to be shifted from the fourth quarter into the third quarter when compared to the prior year.  This represents advertising spending associated with the Company’s celebration of the 40^th anniversary of Calvin Klein in September 2008, as well as opportunistic spending to capitalize on the high audience reach during the Olympics.  

The Company is currently projecting full year GAAP earnings per share to be in a range of $3.03 to $3.12, which includes Geoffrey Beene operating results and exit costs of approximately $24 million pre-tax, or $15 million after tax.  For the third quarter of 2008, GAAP earnings per share is expected to be $1.02 to $1.08, which includes Geoffrey Beene operating results and exit costs of approximately $4 million pre-tax, or $3 million after tax.

The Company continues to estimate that cash flow for 2008 will be $80 million to $90 million, which is after the acquisition of the Mulberry Neckwear assets and approximately $90 million of capital spending to support the Company’s growth initiatives and for infrastructure investments to support the growth of its existing businesses.  This estimate includes the one-time costs associated with the closing of the Company’s Geoffrey Beene outlet retail business, net of the benefit associated with liquidating the working capital of this business.

Notes to Consolidated Income Statements:

1.

The Company believes presenting its 2008 results excluding the operating results and exit costs associated with the Company’s Geoffrey Beene outlet retail division, which is on a non-GAAP basis, provides useful additional information to investors. The Company believes that the exclusion of such amounts facilitates the comparability of the Company's results from period to period and provides a basis for comparing current results against future results by eliminating amounts that it believes are not comparable between periods, thereby permitting management to evaluate performance and investors to make decisions based on the ongoing operations of the Company. The Company believes that investors often look at ongoing operations of an enterprise as a measure of assessing performance. The Company will use its results excluding these amounts to evaluate its operating performance and to discuss i ts business with investment institutions, the Company’s Board of Directors and others. Such results will also be the basis for certain incentive compensation calculations.

Reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP 2008 Estimates

The Company believes presenting its estimated 2008 results excluding the operating results and exit costs associated with the Company’s Geoffrey Beene outlet retail division, which is on a non-GAAP basis, provides useful additional information to investors. The Company believes that the exclusion of such amounts facilitates the comparability of the Company's results from period to period and provides a basis for comparing current results against future results by eliminating amounts that it believes are not comparable between periods, thereby permitting management to evaluate performance and investors to make decisions based on the ongoing operations of the Company. The Company believes that investors often look at ongoing operations of an enterprise as a measure of assessing performance. The Company has provided the reconciliations set forth below to present its estimates of earnings per share and operating margin on a GAAP basis and excluding these amounts. The Company will use its results excluding these amounts to evaluate its operating performance and to discuss its business with investment institutions, the Company’s Board of Directors and others. The Company’s earnings per share excluding these amounts will also be the basis for certain incentive compensation calculations.
