FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

WARNACO REPORTS FIRST QUARTER 2006 RESULTS

NEW YORK — May 9, 2006 — The Warnaco Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: WRNC) today reported results for the first quarter ended April 1, 2006.

For the first quarter of fiscal 2006, the Company reported:

•  Net revenues of $466.3 million, up from $439.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2005;
•  Gross profit margin of 37.4% of net revenues, compared to 35.7% in the first quarter of fiscal 2005;
•  Operating income of $34.6 million compared to $52.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2005; and
•  Net income of $16.1 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, versus $29.4 million, or $0.63 per diluted share in the first quarter of fiscal 2005.

The Company notes that the results cited above include approximately two months of operations of the Calvin Klein Jeans and related businesses in Europe and Asia (the "CKJEA Business"), which were acquired on January 31, 2006. For the two month period, net revenues from the CKJEA Business were $60.4 million and operating income was $6.1 million.

"The strong performance of our Intimate Apparel Group and international businesses, including our newly acquired International Calvin Klein businesses, was overshadowed by a disappointing first quarter for our Swimwear Group, where disruptions caused by the implementation of a new systems infrastructure negatively affected shipping in the quarter, resulting in sales declines year over year and additional expense. The quarter was also negatively impacted by the effects of retail consolidation and a significant timing shift in certain sportswear sales from the first half of this year into the latter half of this year," said Joe Gromek, Warnaco's President and Chief Executive Officer.

The Company believes that revenue and operating income for the Swimwear Group fell short of targeted amounts by approximately $30.0 million and $10.0 million, respectively, during the quarter, primarily due to difficulties with the implementation of a new systems infrastructure and its effect on shipping, re-orders and order cancellations. The Company has addressed many of the critical issues related to the new systems infrastructure and is working to complete the implementation at the Swimwear Group.

Additionally, the timing shift in sales of certain sportswear product offerings resulted in the absence of approximately $12.0 million of net revenues and $5.0 million of operating income, which revenues and operating income occurred in the first quarter of 2005 but are not expected to occur until the latter half of this year.

"Overall, our brands are performing well at retail, with strong sell through rates in each of our three operating groups. While we expect the effects of consolidation in the retail sector to negatively impact shipping in all three business segments through the second quarter, we believe that these effects will diminish in the second half of the year and that our diverse business model positions Warnaco for continued growth in 2006 and beyond," Mr. Gromek concluded.




Financial data as of April 1, 2006, December 31, 2005 and April 2, 2005, and for the three month periods ended April 1, 2006 and April 2, 2005, can be found on Schedules 1, 2, 3 and 4 to this release.

First Quarter Operating Highlights

First quarter net revenues increased 6.1% to $466.3 million, including $60.4 million in revenues from the newly acquired CKJEA Business. Intimate Apparel Group revenues increased, reflecting the continued momentum of Warner's and the ongoing expansion of the Calvin Klein underwear retail business, while revenues in both the Swimwear Group and Sportswear Group (excluding the CKJEA Business) declined compared to the prior year period. Net revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 were negatively affected by approximately $4.4 million related to the translation of foreign currencies, primarily as a result of a stronger dollar relative to the first quarter of fiscal 2005.

Gross profit was $174.3 million, or 37.4% of net revenues, including $33.9 million in gross profit from the CKJEA Business, compared to $157.0 million, or 35.7% of net revenues, for the first quarter of fiscal 2005. The 170 basis point improvement in gross profit margin reflects improvement in the Intimate Apparel Group's Core Brands gross profit margin, coupled with the strong gross profit margins of the acquired CKJEA Business, offset by declines in the gross profit margins of the Sportswear Group (excluding the CKJEA Business) and Swimwear Group. The decline in the Sportswear Group's gross profit margin was primarily due to a change in the distribution mix in Calvin Klein jeans (excluding the CKJEA Business) and an increase in dilution as well as the timing of certain other costs in Chaps. The Swimwear Group's gross profit margin was negatively affected by costs associated with the implementation of a new systems infrastructure, continued investments in Ocean Pacific and increased provisions for excess inventories. Gross profit for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 was also negatively affected by approximately $2.5 million related to the translation of foreign currencies, primarily as a result of a stronger dollar relative to the first quarter of fiscal 2005.

Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses were $136.3 million, or 29.3% of net revenues, compared to $102.8 million, or 23.4% of net revenues, for the prior year quarter. Contributing to the increase in SG&A was $25.8 million of SG&A from the CKJEA Business along with (i) the addition of approximately $2.0 million due to an increased percentage of revenues generated from higher SG&A businesses (including international and retail); (ii) over $2.0 million related to investments in the Company's brands, including the vertical integration of core apparel categories at OP; (iii) approximately $1.6 million of incremental information technology expense and other costs primarily associated with the implementation of the new systems infrastructure at the Swimwear Group; and (iv) approximately $1.2 million in marketing expense related to the recently introduced nationwide Speedo advertising campaign. SG&A expenses for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 benefited from approximately $1.9 million related to the translation of foreign currencies, primarily as a result of a stronger dollar relative to the first quarter of fiscal 2005.

Amortization of intangible assets was $3.4 million, up from $1.0 million in the prior year period, primarily due to an increase in intangible assets associated with the acquisition of the CKJEA Business.

Operating income for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 was $34.6 million, or 7.4% of net revenues, including $6.1 million of operating income from the CKJEA Business, compared to $52.9 million, or 12.0% of net revenues, in the prior year period. Increased sales and higher gross margins primarily driven by the recently acquired CKJEA Business and the Intimate Apparel Group's Core Brands were offset by the net effects of the challenges in the Swimwear Group, ongoing investment in Ocean Pacific and the timing of certain shipments in the Sportswear Group. Operating income for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 was also negatively affected by approximately $0.5 million related to the translation of foreign currencies, primarily as a result of a stronger dollar relative to the first quarter of fiscal 2005.

Other expenses were $2.1 million, up from a nominal gain in the prior year quarter. The majority of the increase is the result of the impact of foreign exchange rates on the Company's purchase of euros in connection with the acquisition of the CKJEA Business.




Interest expense increased to $7.7 million compared to $5.0 million in the prior year period. The $2.7 million increase is the result of incremental indebtedness incurred in connection with the acquisition of the CKJEA Business.

The provision for income tax was $8.7 million, or an effective tax rate of 35.1%, compared to $18.7 million, or an effective tax rate of 39.1%, for the first quarter of fiscal 2005. The reduction in the effective tax rate is the result of a change in the mix of income from the Company's international business relative to its domestic business.

Net income was $16.1 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, compared to $29.4 million, or $0.63 per diluted share, for the first quarter of fiscal 2005. The decline is the result of the combined shortfall in pre-acquisition business revenues and gross profit coupled with the higher SG&A expense described above.

The Company noted the following balance sheet highlights as of April 1, 2006:

Cash and cash equivalents were $63.2 million, compared to $45.9 million of cash and cash equivalents at April 2, 2005. On January 31, 2006, the Company used approximately $70.8 million of cash (net of cash acquired) in connection with the acquisition of the CKJEA Business. At the same time, in connection with and to finance a portion of the purchase price for the acquisition, the Company borrowed $180.0 million under a new term loan facility due 2013. The Company also assumed approximately $45.0 million of debt of the newly acquired entities.

Net inventories were $357.0 million, up from $324.5 million at April 2, 2005. Inventories at April 1, 2006 include an increase of $45.3 million of inventory of the CKJEA Business and a $24.1 million increase in inventory in the Swimwear Group partially offset by declines in Intimate Apparel and Sportswear (excluding the CKJEA Business) inventories.

Fiscal 2006 Outlook

"While we are dissatisfied with our first quarter performance, the integration of the CKJEA Business is proceeding on plan, with those acquired businesses positively contributing to our first quarter operating results," commented Larry Rutkowski, Warnaco's Chief Financial Officer. "Currently we expect second quarter 2006 operating results for our pre-acquisition businesses to be similar to those of last year. However, consolidated operating income is expected to decline significantly due to the effect of the CKJEA Business, which, on a stand alone unaudited basis, posted operating losses in excess of $6.0 million in the second quarter of 2005 due to its seasonal sales cycle. We also expect to incur incremental amortization and interest expense related to the acquisition."

Mr. Rutkowski continued, "For the year, due to the effect of the system conversion on the Swimwear Group's financial performance, we now expect our pre-acquisition business revenue growth to be in the low single digits. In addition, for our pre-acquisition businesses, we continue to expect at least a 100 basis point improvement in gross margin percentage and we now expect mid single digit percentage improvement in the operating margin percentage over the prior year (assuming minimal pension expense in fiscal 2006), based on the declines in revenues and higher SG&A expenses. We have also identified several strategies to control future costs and intend to take specific actions to reduce our ongoing SG&A expenses."

Mr. Rutkowski concluded, "Overall, for the Company (including the acquired CKJEA Business), we now expect (i) revenue growth in 2006 to be at least in the low 20 percent range; (ii) mid single digit percentage improvement in the operating margin percentage over the prior year (assuming minimal pension expense in fiscal 2006); and (iii) that the acquisition of the CKJEA Business will be accretive to Warnaco's 2006 earnings per share."
