Forward Guidance

Given the current circumstances regarding the coronavirus (or “COVID-19”) crisis and its uncertain impact on our operations, we are not providing detailed guidance for the second quarter or the full fiscal year ending January 29, 2022. We expect revenues in the second quarter of fiscal 2022 to be down mid-single digits versus the second quarter of fiscal 2020 as pandemic-related shutdowns and traffic declines are partially offset by continued momentum in our global e-commerce business. For the full fiscal year 2022, assuming no COVID-related shutdowns past the second quarter, we expect revenues to be down mid-single digits versus fiscal 2020 and operating margin to reach approximately 8.6%.
