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 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. 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 January 31,
2010, in some cases have affected and in the future could
affect the Company's financial performance and could cause actual
results for the 2010 fiscal year 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: current general and financial economic conditions;
changes in consumer spending patterns and consumer preferences; the
effects of political and economic events and conditions
domestically and in foreign jurisdictions in which the Company
operates, including, but not limited to, acts of terrorism or war;
the impact of competition and pricing; changes in weather patterns;
availability and market prices of key raw materials; ability to
source product from its global supplier base; political stability;
currency and exchange risks and changes in existing or potential
duties, tariffs or quotas; availability of suitable store locations
at appropriate terms; ability to develop new merchandise; ability
to hire, train and retain associates; and the outcome of pending
litigation or other adversarial proceedings. Future economic and
industry trends that could potentially impact revenue and
profitability are difficult to predict. Therefore, there can
be no assurance that the forward-looking statements included in
this Press Release will prove to be accurate. In light of the
significant uncertainties in the forward-looking statements
included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be
regarded as a representation by the Company, or any other person,
that the objectives of the Company will be achieved. The
forward-looking statements herein are based on information
presently available to the management of the Company. Except
as may be required by applicable law, the Company assumes no
obligation to publicly update or revise its forward-looking
statements even if experience or future changes make it clear that
any projected results expressed or implied therein will not be
realized.
