For the quarter:
-- Net revenues were $538.4 million, down 5% from the prior year quarter
-- Net revenues, on a constant currency basis, rose 6% compared to the prior year quarter
-- Gross margin decreased 290 basis points from the prior year quarter to 42% of net revenues
-- Selling, general & administrative (SG&A) expense, as a percent of net revenues, declined 510 basis points to 29%
-- Operating income was $64.1 million, or 12% of net revenues, compared to $55.7 million, or 10% of net revenues in the prior year quarter
-- Income per diluted share from continuing operations was $0.83 compared to $0.15 in the prior year quarter, and includes $0.17 and $0.79, respectively, of costs related to restructuring expenses, pension expense, certain tax related items and other items
-- Adjusted, non-GAAP (excluding the items above) income per diluted share from continuing operations was $1.00 compared to $0.94 for the prior year quarter.
The accompanying tables provide a reconciliation of actual results to the adjusted results.
The Company believes it is valuable for users of the Company's financial statements to be made aware of the adjusted financial information, as such measures are used by management to evaluate the operating performance of the Company's continuing businesses on a comparable basis.
Joe Gromek, Warnaco's President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "We are very pleased with our first quarter results. Our business model, predicated on powerful brands, global diversification and disciplined execution, continues to demonstrate strength and resiliency in a challenging global environment. First quarter revenues, in constant currency, increased as we continued to capitalize on the growth opportunities for our Calvin Klein businesses. Earnings from continuing operations increased, driven by positive comparable store sales, continued direct-to-consumer growth and geographic expansion in our Calvin Klein business. Earnings also benefited from the actions we have taken to align our costs with today's economic realities and a more efficient business model."
"As we look forward, we remain committed to our long-term strategies of growing the Calvin Klein business, expanding internationally and broadening our direct-to-consumer platform. We are continuing to invest in our retail initiative as we seek to accelerate revenue and market share growth. At the same time, we remain focused on controlling expenses and managing inventory and receivables. We are confident that the strength of the Calvin Klein brand and the powerful global platform we have developed to support our Calvin Klein business will enable us to gain market share and create long-term shareholder value," concluded Mr. Gromek.
Fiscal 2009 Outlook
Based on our results to date, the Company is refining its 2009 earnings outlook. For fiscal 2009, on an adjusted basis (excluding restructuring expense, certain tax related items and assuming minimal pension expense):
-- The Company now anticipates net revenues will decline 9% - 12%, primarily as a result of the impact of foreign currency exchange rates
-- Based on recent currency exchange rates, the Company now expects diluted earnings per share from continuing operations in the range of $2.50 - $2.66
-- The Company's prior guidance was for net revenue declines in the range of 9% - 14% and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations of $2.40 - $2.66 per diluted share.
The accompanying tables provide a reconciliation of expected diluted earnings per share from continuing operations, on a GAAP basis (and based on recent currency exchange rates) of $2.25 - $2.38 per diluted share (assuming minimal pension expense), to the adjusted fiscal 2009 outlook above.
First Quarter 2009 Highlights
Total Company
Notwithstanding one less week in the current year quarter compared to the prior year quarter, net revenues rose 6% on a constant currency basis. Double digit growth, in constant currency, in the Company's Calvin Klein businesses was the primary contributor to the positive results. On a reported basis however, net revenues for the Company's Calvin Klein businesses fell 5% and total Company net revenues fell 5% to $538.4 million. The quarter benefited from an incremental $25.3 million of sales to certain domestic channels, reflecting both a shift in timing from later quarters as well as expanded penetration.
Gross margin decreased 290 basis points to 42% of net revenues. Gross margin was adversely affected by currency exchange rates and a more promotional environment.
SG&A expense declined 19% to $158.8 million. SG&A as a percent of net revenues decreased 510 basis points to 29% of net revenues. The decrease reflects the effects of currency exchange rates as well as the initial benefits of the Company's previously announced expense reduction initiatives.
Operating income increased 15% to $64.1 million compared to $55.7 million in the prior year quarter. Operating income for the first quarter of fiscal 2009 and 2008 was adversely affected by $9.1 million and $20.1 million, respectively, of restructuring charges and pension expense. On an adjusted basis (excluding costs related to restructuring expenses, pension expense, certain tax related items and other items) operating income was $73.2 million compared to $75.5 million in the prior year period, due primarily to the effects of currency exchange rates.
The Company recorded income from continuing operations of $38.5 million, or $0.83 per diluted share, compared to $7.0 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, in the prior year period. Income from continuing operations for the first quarter of fiscal 2008 included an initial tax charge of $19.5 million, or $0.42 per diluted share, related to the repatriation of proceeds connected to the sale of the Company's Lejaby(R) business.
Income from continuing operations, on an adjusted basis (excluding costs related to restructuring expenses, pension expense, certain tax related items and other items), as detailed in the accompanying schedules, was $1.00 per diluted share compared to $0.94 per diluted share in the prior year period.
The impact of foreign currency exchange rates decreased fiscal 2009 first quarter net revenues, gross profit, SG&A and operating profit by approximately $60.9 million, $34.4 million, $20.4 million and $14.0 million, respectively, and decreased income from continuing operations by approximately $0.20 per diluted share.
Segment Results
Sportswear
Sportswear Group net revenues fell 7% to $280.1 million and were up 6% on a constant currency basis, which included the benefit of a shift in timing of certain membership club shipments. Sportswear Group operating income was $38.3 million, or 14% of Sportswear Group net revenues, compared to $22.1 million, or 7% of Group net revenues in the prior year period (which included a charge of $18.5 million related to the Company's transfer of the Calvin Klein Collection License business). Domestically, both Chaps and Calvin Klein Jeans recorded gains in profits compared to the prior year period. However, reported results in the international Calvin Klein sportswear businesses were adversely affected primarily by currency exchange rates and the softening in the economy.
Intimate Apparel
Intimate Apparel Group net revenues decreased 3% to $162.4 million and increased 8% on a constant currency basis. Intimate Apparel Group operating income was $29.4 million, or 18% of Intimate Apparel Group net revenues, down compared to $32.3 million, or 19% of Group net revenues in the prior year quarter. Calvin Klein Underwear benefited from ongoing direct-to-consumer expansion, strong international performance and the timing of shipments to the value channel in the U.S., partially offset by the adverse effects of currency exchange rates. The Core brands were negatively affected due to reduced shipments when compared to last year resulting from fixture roll out and door expansion in 2008. However, increases in sales at retail resulted in market share gains for the Core brands.
Swimwear
Swimwear Group net revenues decreased 5% to $95.9 million and decreased 1% on a constant currency basis. Swimwear Group operating income was $12.6 million, or 13% of Swimwear Group net revenues, compared to $14.8 million, or 15% of Group revenue, in the prior year period. Group results were adversely affected by currency exchange rates and delayed deliveries in its Calvin Klein swim business. Speedo(R), however, leveraged its leadership position and recorded a 1% increase in revenues and a 120 basis point improvement in operating margin.
Balance Sheet
Cash and cash equivalents at April 4, 2009 were $122.1 million compared to $138.0 million at April 5, 2008. At quarter-end, the Company had approximately $52.0 million drawn on its U.S. revolving credit facility, which it expects to pay down by mid-year. Additionally, the Company's net debt (total debt net of cash and cash equivalents) at quarter-end was $166.1 million.
Inventories were $316.2 million at April 4, 2009, a 2% decline, compared to $321.0 million at April 5, 2008.
Accounts receivable were $362.5 million at April 4, 2009, up 1% compared to $357.6 million at April 5, 2008, due primarily to timing. The vast majority of the Company's receivable balance is current and days of sales outstanding (DSO) in accounts receivable are down by two days compared to prior year levels.

(f) Effective January 4, 2009, the Company adopted the provisions of
FSP EITF 03-6-1, Determining Whether Instruments Granted in
Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities
("FSP EITF 03-6-1'), which clarifies that unvested share-based
payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or
dividend equivalents are participating securities and are required
to be included in the computation of both basic and diluted
earnings per share. All prior period earnings per share data are
required to be adjusted retrospectively to give effect to FSP EITF
03-6-1. Consequently earnings per share data for the Three Months
Ended April 5, 2008 was adjusted accordingly. The effect of the
adoption of FSP EITF 03-6-1 resulted in a $0.01 decrease in the
calculation of both basic and diluted net income per share, on an
"As Adjusted" basis, compared to amounts previously reported.

revenue growth and per share amounts related to the Company's
income from continuing operations as such measures are used by
management to evaluate the operating performance of the Company's
continuing businesses on a comparable basis. Management does not,
nor should investors, consider such non-GAAP financial measures in
isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information
prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company presents such
non-GAAP financial measures in reporting its projected results to
provide investors with an additional tool to evaluate the
Company's operating results.
