ABERCROMBIE & FITCH REPORTS SECOND QUARTER RESULTS
New Albany, Ohio, August 28, 2014: Abercrombie & Fitch Co. (NYSE: ANF) today reported unaudited financial results that reflected GAAP net income of $12.9 million and net income per diluted share of $0.17 for the thirteen weeks ended August 2, 2014, compared to GAAP net income of $11.4 million and net income per diluted share of $0.14 for the thirteen weeks ended August 3, 2013.
Excluding certain charges, the Company reported adjusted non-GAAP net income of $14.1 million and adjusted non-GAAP net income per diluted share of $0.19 for the second quarter compared to adjusted non-GAAP net income of $13.0 million and adjusted non-GAAP net income per diluted share of $0.16 for the second quarter of last year.
A reconciliation of the GAAP financial measures to the non-GAAP financial measures is included in a table accompanying the consolidated financial statements with this release. As used in the release, "GAAP" refers to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Mike Jeffries, Chief Executive Officer, said:
"In the past quarter, we believe we have made great progress in evolving the fashion component of our assortment, and this progress is clearly evident in our Back-to-School presentation. In a continued challenging environment, our sales for the second quarter were somewhat below plan, but we have seen modest improvement since the Back-to-School floorset. We are confident that the evolution of our assortment will drive further improvements going forward, in particular as we move past the headwind of adverse likes in our logo business as we work to strategically reduce that element in our assortment.
Despite the challenging conditions, we were able to exceed our earnings expectations coming into the quarter through continued excellent progress on our profit improvement initiative. We remain highly focused on returning to top-line growth and driving long-term value for our shareholders."

Additional Second Quarter Results Commentary
The gross profit rate for the second quarter was 62.1%, 180 basis points lower than last year, reflecting an increase in promotional activity.
Stores and distribution expense for the second quarter was $426.3 million, down from $471.7 million last year. Stores and Distribution expense for the quarter included $1.2 million of charges related to the profit improvement initiative. The stores and distribution expense rate for the quarter was 47.9% of net sales, down 200 basis points from last year, driven primarily by savings in store payroll partially offset by higher direct-to-consumer expense.
Marketing, general and administrative expense for the second quarter was $111.0 million, a 6% decrease compared to $117.6 million last year. Marketing, general and administrative expense for the quarter included $0.7 million of charges related to the profit improvement initiative. The decline was primarily due to a reduction in compensation expense, partially offset by an increase in marketing expense.
Net other operating income was $4.3 million for the second quarter, compared to $4.4 million last year, both of which included insurance recoveries.
The effective tax rate for the second quarter was 26.3% compared to 34.7% for last year. On an adjusted non-GAAP basis, the effective tax rate for the second quarter was 29.2%.
The Company ended the second quarter with $550 million in inventory at cost, a decrease of 13% versus the prior year.
During the second quarter, the Company repurchased 1.5 million shares of its common stock at an aggregate cost of $60 million. As of August 2, 2014, the Company had approximately 11.0 million shares remaining available for purchase under its publicly announced stock repurchase authorizations.
The Company ended the second quarter with $311 million in cash and cash equivalents and borrowings of $188 million, compared to $335 million in cash and cash equivalents and borrowings of $143 million last year.
A summary of store openings and closings for the second quarter is included with the financial statement schedules following this release.
Other Developments
On August 7, 2014, the Company, completed the previously announced refinancing of its credit facilities. The new credit facilities consist of a $400 million Asset-Based Revolving Credit Facility, subject to a borrowing base, and a $300 million Term Loan Facility. A portion of the proceeds from the new Term Loan Facility were used to repay the outstanding balance of approximately $128 million under the previously existing Term Loan Facility, to repay outstanding borrowings of $60 million under the existing Revolving Credit Facility, and to pay related fees and expenses associated with the transaction. The balance of the proceeds will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes, including potential share repurchases in accordance with the Company’s previously announced stock repurchase authorizations. As of August 7, 2014, the Asset-Based Revolving Credit Facility had not been drawn upon.
As previously announced, on August 20, 2014, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.20 per share on the Class A Common Stock of Abercrombie & Fitch Co., payable on September 10, 2014 to stockholders of record at the close of business on September 2, 2014.

Outlook
The Company continues to expect full year diluted earnings per share in the range of $2.15 to $2.35. The guidance is based on the assumption that full year comparable sales will be down by a mid-single-digit percentage.
The guidance also assumes a gross margin rate for the full year that is down slightly compared to Fiscal 2013, with
average unit retail pressure and lower shipping and handling revenues partially offset by average unit cost improvement. In addition, the guidance includes an increase in interest expense associated with the refinancing of the Company's credit facilities, and a full year effective tax rate in the mid 30's, which remains sensitive to the mix between international and domestic income.
The above guidance does not include charges related to the Gilly Hicks brand restructuring, the Company's profit improvement initiative, certain corporate governance matters, other potential impairment and store closure charges, or the effect of additional share repurchases.
The Company now anticipates opening a total of 14 full-price international stores throughout the year, including 8 Hollister stores and 5 Abercrombie & Fitch stores. The Company also plans to open approximately 8 to 10 international and U.S. outlet stores during the fiscal year. In addition, the Company now expects to close approximately 60 stores in the U.S. during the fiscal year through natural lease expirations.
The Company continues to expect total capital expenditures for the fiscal year to be approximately $210 million to $220 million.
An investor presentation of second quarter results will be available in the "Investors" section of the Company's website at www.abercrombie.com at approximately 8:00 AM, Eastern Daylight Saving Time, today.

SAFE HARBOR STATEMENT UNDER THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995
A&F cautions that any forward-looking statements (as such term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995) contained in this Press Release or made by management or spokespeople of A&F involve risks and uncertainties and are subject to change based on various important factors, many of which may be beyond the Company's control. Words such as "estimate," "project," "plan," "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "intend," and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements. Except as may be required by applicable law, we assume no obligation to publicly update or revise our forward-looking statements. The following factors, in addition to those included in the disclosure under the heading "FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND RISK FACTORS" in "ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS" of A&F's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 1, 2014, in some cases have affected and in the future could affect the Company's financial performance and could cause actual results for Fiscal 2014 and beyond to differ materially from those expressed or implied in any of the forward-looking statements included in this Press Release or otherwise made by management: changes in economic and financial conditions, and the resulting impact on consumer confidence and consumer spending, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and liquidity; changing fashion trends and consumer preferences, and the ability to manage our inventory commensurate with customer demand, could adversely impact our sales levels and profitability; fluctuations in the cost, availability and quality of raw materials, labor and transportation, could cause manufacturing delays and increase our costs; a significant component of our growth strategy is international expansion, which requires significant capital investment, adds complexity to our operations and may strain our resources and adversely impact current store performance; our international expansion plan is dependent on a number of factors, any of which could delay or prevent successful penetration into new markets or could adversely affect the profitability of our international operations; we have increased the focus of our growth strategy on direct-to-consumer sales channels and the failure to successfully develop our position in these channels could have an adverse impact on our results of operations; our direct-to-consumer operations are subject to numerous risks that could adversely impact sales, failure to successfully implement certain growth initiatives may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations; fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates could adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations; our business could suffer if our information technology systems are disrupted or cease to operate effectively; comparable sales, including direct-to-consumer, may continue to fluctuate on a regular basis and impact the volatility of the price of our Common Stock; extreme weather conditions may negatively impact our results of operations; our market share may be negatively impacted by increasing competition and pricing pressures from companies with brands or merchandise competitive with ours; our ability to attract customers to our stores depends, in part, on the success of the shopping malls or area attractions in which most of our stores are located; our net sales fluctuate on a seasonal basis, causing our results of operations to be susceptible to changes in Back-to-School and Holiday shopping patterns; our failure to protect our reputation could have a material adverse effect on our brands; we rely on the experience and skills of our senior executive officers, the loss of whom could have a material adverse effect on our business; interruption in the flow of merchandise from our key vendors and international manufacturers could disrupt our supply chain, which could result in lost sales and increased costs; in a number of our European stores, associates are represented by workers’ councils and unions, whose demands could adversely affect our profitability or operating standards for our brands; we depend upon independent third parties for the manufacture and delivery of all our merchandise; our reliance on two distribution centers domestically and four third-party distribution centers internationally makes us susceptible to disruptions or adverse conditions affecting our distribution centers; we rely on third-party vendors as well as other third-party arrangements for many aspects of our business and the failure to successfully manage these relationships could negatively impact our results of operations or expose us to liability for the actions of third-party vendors acting on our behalf; we may be exposed to risks and costs associated with credit card fraud and identity theft that would cause us to incur unexpected expenses and loss of revenues; our facilities, systems and stores, as well as the facilities and systems of our vendors and manufacturers, are vulnerable to natural disasters, pandemic disease and other unexpected events, any of which could result in an interruption to our business and adversely affect our operating results; our litigation exposure could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations; our inability or failure to adequately protect our trademarks could have a negative impact on our brand image and limit our ability to penetrate new markets; actions of activist stockholders could have a negative effect on our business; fluctuations in our tax obligations and effective tax rate may result in volatility in our operating results; the effects of war or acts of terrorism could have a material adverse effect on our operating results and financial condition; our inability to obtain commercial insurance at acceptable prices or our failure to adequately reserve for self-insured exposures might increase our expenses and adversely impact our financial results; operating results and cash flows at the store level may cause us to incur impairment charges; we are subject to customs, advertising, consumer protection, privacy, zoning and occupancy and labor and employment laws that could require us to modify our current business practices, incur increased costs or harm our reputation if we do not comply; changes in the regulatory or compliance landscape could adversely affect our business and results of operations; our asset-based revolving credit facility and our Term Loan Facility include financial and other covenants that impose restrictions on our financial and business operations; compliance with changing regulations and standards for accounting, corporate governance and public disclosure could adversely affect our business, results of operations and reported financial results; our inability to successfully implement our long-range strategic plan could have a negative impact on our growth and profitability and our estimates of the expenses that we may incur in connection with the closures of the Gilly Hicks stores could prove to be inaccurate.
