We commenced the development of Ted Baker in Middle East and Asia through our
licence agreements, while considering further opportunities for new stores in
both the UK and the US. We remain confident in the long term strength of the
Group and look forward to the year with confidence."

Notes to Editors


'No Ordinary Designer Label...' Ted Baker has grown steadily from a single shirt
specialist store in Glasgow to an international brand that distributes through
retail showcases, leading department stores and key independents in Europe, USA,
Canada, the Middle East, Asia and Australasia.


Using three distinct channels of distribution, retail, wholesale and licensing,
allows Ted to pursue a policy of careful brand management and growth by
extending the breadth of the collections, controlling distribution channels and
developing our presence within key markets.


Ted's collections include three men's ranges: Global, which consists of limited
edition opulent pieces; Endurance, a fusion of traditional tailoring with 21st
century technology and high performance fabrics; and Men's Mainline which is a
combined collection of laid-back denim pieces, casual shirts and contemporary
suiting. Ted's Womenswear collection includes tailoring, silk jerseys,
directional knitwear, sophisticated dresses, and appliqued denim pieces. Both
the men's and women's offer is complimented by individual accessory collections.
The Childrenswear and Babywear ranges are aptly named Teddy Boy, Teddy Girl and
Teddy Baby and are treated as 'small cuts dressed by Ted.' Fragrances, Footwear,
Eyewear, Watches and Intimates are designed by Ted and distributed through
licensees.


Renowned for the brand's quirky sense of humour and attention to detail, Ted
Baker has always had a very clear unswerving focus on quality. Ted creates
collections that appeal to a broad range of style conscious men and women
looking for that certain something a little out of the ordinary.





                              CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

I am pleased to report another year of strong results for Ted Baker. Growth,
both in the UK and internationally was supported by our continued multi-channel
distribution strategy. The year saw a particularly strong performance in the
retail and licence divisions with retail sales increasing by 11.4% and licence
income increasing by 14.3%. Wholesale sales fell by 3.5% reflecting the
difficult market conditions experienced by some of our wholesale trustees.


I would like to take this opportunity to thank the team at Ted Baker for its
hard work during the year. The passion, commitment and dedication of our teams
continue to drive the business forward in what is an exciting period for the
Group.

Results

Group revenue increased by 6.6% to #125.6m (2006: #117.8m) for the 52 weeks
ended 27 January 2007. Operating profit increased by 9.4% to #20.0m (2006:
#18.3m) and profit before tax increased by 9.2% to #20.0m (2006: #18.4m). Basic
earnings per share increased by 10.8% to 33.9p per share (2006: 30.6p per
share).

Dividends

The Board is pleased to recommend a final dividend of 10.3p per share (2006:
8.2p per share) making a total for the year of 14.6p per share (2006: 12.1p per
share) an increase of 20.7% on the previous year. The directors feel it is
appropriate to recommend a more progressive dividend policy to reflect the
strong cash generation of the business. The final dividend will be payable on 22
June 2007 to those shareholders on the register on 18 May 2007.


Share Buy-back

In line with market practice, the Company will seek to renew the authority from
shareholders to buy back up to 10% of the ordinary issued share capital of the
Company in the next twelve months. As the exercise of such authority could give
rise to an obligation on the part of Ray Kelvin, Founder and Chief Executive of
the Company, to make a mandatory offer under Rule 9 of The City Code on
Takeovers and Mergers, such authority will also be conditional on the Panel on
Takeovers and Mergers agreeing to grant a dispensation from that obligation.
Further details of this will be sent out in a letter accompanying the Notice of
Meeting.



Current Trading and Outlook

The reaction to our Spring Summer 2007 collection has been encouraging with
total retail sales ahead by 12.1% for the first seven weeks, compared with the
same period last year. Retail square footage was some 7.8% higher at the start
of the current financial year compared to last year. We plan to open stores in
Gatwick North and Brighton this year and expect retail square footage to
increase by some 10,000 square feet in total. Our retail licensees have opened a
third store in Dubai and one in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia since the end of the
year.


Wholesale sales were 11.2% ahead of the same period last year. Whilst this
improvement is encouraging, it is against a weak comparative and we anticipate
that conditions will remain difficult for some of our wholesale customers. We
have also taken action in respect of certain customers where their profile is no
longer appropriate for our brand. As a result, we expect wholesale sales to be
slightly below the level achieved last year.


We have made an encouraging start to the current year and the Ted Baker brand is
in excellent health. At this early stage we remain confident of another year of
growth and development.

Chief Executive's Review


INTRODUCTION


I am delighted to report another year of strong growth for the Group. The
brand's performance in the UK has once again been strong and Ted Baker continues
to develop its global presence. During the year we opened a store in Southern
California and our licence partners opened six stores in Dubai (2), Singapore,
Bangkok, Jakarta and Hong Kong.


Quality, design and attention to detail are key strengths of the Ted Baker brand
and we remain focused on these areas. These strengths are not only seen in our
products but are evident across our stores and working environments and underpin
our culture. We continue to maintain close control of our brand as we expand
internationally.



GLOBAL GROUP PERFORMANCE


Retail

The retail division performed strongly during the year with sales growth up
11.4% to #89.2m (2006: #80.1m). Average retail square footage rose by 7.5% over
the period to 147,861 sq.ft. (2006: 137,538 sq.ft.). At 27 January 2007, total
retail square footage was 152,937 sq.ft. (2006: 141,022 sq.ft.), representing an
increase of 8.4%. Retail sales per square foot increased from #582 to #603 as
our newer space and overseas stores continue to mature.


Wholesale

In the interim statement we reported that some of our trustees had experienced
difficult market conditions, which would impact on our wholesale performance for
the year. Wholesale sales for the year were #36.5m (2006: #37.8m), representing
a decline of 3.5%. This outturn was better than anticipated at the half year due
to an improved performance in the second half.


Licence income

Ted Baker operates two types of licences: territorial licences covering North
America, the Middle East, Asia, Australia and New Zealand; and product licences
covering lingerie, eyewear, perfume & fragrance, watches and footwear.


Licence income for the year was up 14.3% to #4.0m (2006: #3.5m) and we were
particularly pleased with the performances of our perfume and fragrance
licensees and of our footwear licencee who both delivered above average growth.


Our other product and territorial licensees continue to perform in line with our
expectations.


Collections


Ted Baker Menswear enjoyed good growth in the period with sales up 7.5% to
#71.4m (2006: #66.4m). Menswear represented 56.8% of total sales (2006: 56.4%).


Ted Baker Womenswear enjoyed good growth in the period with sales up 6.6% to
#48.9m (2006: #45.9m). Womenswear represented 39.0% of total sales (2006:
39.0%).


Sales of other collections, comprising Childrenswear and Footwear were #5.3m
(2006: #5.5m) and these collections represented 4.2% of our total sales (2006:
4.6%).


UNITED KINGDOM & EUROPE


Our UK & Europe retail division performed strongly during the year with sales up
9.2% to #80.0m (2006: #73.2m).


Average square footage rose by 5.1% over the period to 125,333 (2006: 119,304).
At 27 January 2007, total retail square footage was 128,481 (2006: 120,461)
representing an increase of 6.7%. Retail sales per square foot increased from
#614 to #638.


In November 2006, we opened a store in Bath on Milsom Street, a premier street
in the City centre. Situated in a 2,100 sq ft listed building, the store houses
both the Ted Baker menswear and womenswear collections. We also opened 12 new
concessions during the year in leading department stores.


At 27 January 2007, we operated 21 stores (2006: 20), 78 concessions (2006: 68)
and 8 outlet stores (2006: 8).


In November 2006, Ted Baker's new website went live. Our new transactional
website has undergone a complete redesign, offering our customers a more
user-friendly interface with a wider product range. The site offers the largest
range of Ted Baker collections and customer reaction has been positive. We have
seen a significant increase in activity compared to the previous site.


US


Our US retail division performed strongly during the year with sales up 35.2% to
#9.2m (2006: #6.8m). We continue to develop our presence in the United States
and in May 2006 opened our second largest US store in Southern California's
luxury shopping destination, South Coast Plaza. We now have 7 stores across the
United States and will continue to review suitable opportunities to open further
stores as they arise.


Average square footage rose by 23.5% over the period to 22,528 (2006: 18,234).
At 27 January 2007, total retail square footage was 24,456 (2006: 20,561)
representing an increase of 18.9%. Retail sales per square foot increased from
#374 to #409.


Our US wholesale licensee, Hartmarx Corporation continues to make progress.
During the year, a sub-licence was granted to Swank Inc for mens small leather
goods and jewellery and progress to date has been encouraging.




MIDDLE EAST AND ASIA


In the second quarter of 2005, we signed territorial licence agreements with RSH
Limited and Li and Fung Group of Companies to develop our brand across the
Middle East and Asia.


Our expansion in these territories has commenced with the opening of six
licensed stores in Dubai (2), Singapore, Bangkok, Jakarta and Hong Kong. The
initial reaction from customers has been promising and expansion will continue
at a similar level in the current year.


Although the financial impact of these new stores is not material in the year,
they represent significant progress in our global expansion. The stores were
designed by our in-house design teams and we have been closely involved in the
visual merchandising of the stores and the training of the retail teams to
ensure these new stores effectively reflect the culture and ethos of the brand.

Chief Executive



Finance Director's Report


We continue to focus on margin led growth and strong cash management. Our net
margin before taxation increased to 16.0% (2006: 15.6%) and opening cash and
cash equivalents of #10.1m improved to closing cash and cash equivalents of
#13.5m.


Gross Margin

Retail gross margins were slightly below last year at 65.0% (2006: 66.1%). As
previously reported in the interim statement the margins in the first half were
1.6% below last year. In the second half, the retail margin was 65.7% against
66.1% reflecting a higher proportion of sales being generated in the United
States. The wholesale gross margin was slightly up at 42.9% (2006: 42.2%). The
composite gross margin improved to 58.6% (2006: 58.4%) mainly reflecting a
change in mix towards a higher proportion of retail sales.


Operating Expenses

Operating expenses rose by 6.8% to #58.0m (2006: #54.3m). Distribution costs,
which include the costs of retail stores, outlets and concessions increased by
6.1% to #41.4m (2006: #39.0m), which was below the increase in average retail
selling space. Administration expenses increased by 8.5% to #16.6m (2006:
#15.3m), largely reflecting the growth in the business activity and our support
of the retail business in the Middle East and Asia.


Finance Income and Expenses

The net interest income during the year was above last year at #0.1m (2006: nil)
reflecting continued generation of cash from operations. This was offset by a
small foreign exchange loss compared to a gain in the prior year as a result of
the weakening dollar.


Taxation

The tax charge for the year was #5.6m (2006: #5.4m), an effective tax rate of
28.1% (2006: 29.6%). The effective rate was lower, due to a deferred tax
adjustment on the recognition of tax losses in overseas subsidiaries. Our
underlying effective rate was 30.9%.


Cash Flow and Working Capital

Net cash generated from operations was #13.9m (2006: #15.1m) primarily
reflecting higher working capital requirements.


Inventory levels increased by #4.7m or 18.5% largely reflecting the planned
growth in the business for the current year. As expected, due to a disappointing
wholesale performance, inventory levels also include a slightly higher level of
prior season stock. We have made appropriate provisions for this stock which
will be dealt with through the usual channels.


Capital expenditure was #5.0m (2006: #5.1m) and largely comprised investment in
new retail stores and our second distribution facility.


Shareholder Return

Basic earnings per share increased by 10.8% to 33.9p per share (2006: 30.6p per
share) and the proposed dividend per share increased by 25.6% from 8.2p to
10.3p. Free cash flow per share reduced by 8.4% from 35.6p to 32.6p, primarily
reflecting higher inventory levels at the year-end.



Treasury and Risk Management

The principal risks to the Group arise from exchange rate and interest rate
fluctuations. The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing these risks on
a regular basis. Where appropriate, the Group uses financial instruments to
mitigate these risks. All transactions in derivatives, principally forward
foreign exchange contracts, are taken solely to manage these risks. No
transactions of a speculative nature are entered into.


The most significant exposure to foreign exchange fluctuations relates to
purchases in foreign currencies. The Group's policy is to hedge substantially
all the risks of such currency fluctuations by using forward contracts taking
into account forecast foreign currency cash inflows and outflows. There has been
no change since the year-end to the major financial risks faced by the Group or
the Group's approach to the management of those risks.
