the expectations of management as to future occurrences and trends,
including statements expressing optimism or pessimism about future

views and assumptions regarding future events and operating
performance and are applicable only as of the dates of such
statements. Although the company believes the expectations
expressed in forward-looking statements are based on reasonable
assumptions within the bounds of knowledge, forward-looking
statements, by their nature, involve risks, uncertainties and other
factors, any one or a combination of which could materially affect
business, financial condition, results of operations or
liquidity.
Forward-looking statements that the company makes herein and in
other reports and releases are not guarantees of future performance
and actual results may differ materially from those discussed in
such forward-looking statements as a result of various factors,
including, but not limited to, developments related to the COVID-19
coronavirus pandemic, current economic and credit conditions, the
cost of goods, the inability to successfully execute strategic
initiatives, competitive pressures, economic pressures on customers
and the company, the availability of brand name closeout

from time to time in other filings with the SEC, including
Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K.
This release should be read in conjunction with such filings, and
you should consider all of these risks, uncertainties and other
factors carefully in evaluating forward-looking statements.
You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking
statements, which speak only as of the date thereof. The company
