These are items the company does not state in this document. We do not leave them blank, nor fill them in from other sources or by inference.
The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.Short-sleeved dress shirts performed well at retail stores, while jackets, slacks and casual pants also remained solid as promotions were adjusted to rising temperatures. Meanwhile, cut-and-sew products were weak due to the discontinuation of certain brands, and online customer traffic declined as the business was resized, including through a reduction in the range of products offered.
