ALEXANDER CITY, Ala.--(BUSthe previous year, an increase of 2.4%. For the
quarter,
the Company recorded a loss of $14,156,000, or $.39 per share, versus
income of $23,234,000 in the same period of 1997. These results
include an after-tax charge of $39,407,000, or $1.09 per share related
to severance and the write-down and sale of certain assets in the
quarter included as part of a multi-year strategic plan which was
previously announced.
Excluding charges associated with the plan, net income for the
13-week period ended October 4, 1998, increased 8.7% to $25,251,000
from $23,234,000 last year. Earnings were up more than 9% to $.70
versus $.64 on a per share basis, for basic and diluted, in the same
period of 1997.
For the 39-week period, sales increased to $905,261,000, up 1%
from $896,706,000 recorded year-to-date for the previous year.
Including the after-tax charge, earnings for the year-to-date reflect
a $5,747,000 loss, equivalent to $.16 per common share, on both a
basic and fully diluted basis.
"Despite current difficult industry conditions, Russell continues
to be energized by our new strategic direction. Specifically, our
restructuring plan is moving along well, as we are currently on plan
to re-focus Russell as a consumer products company. We have spent in
excess of one million dollars in consumer market research and are
forging ahead with plans to build the `New' Russell, and our brands,
into leadership positions," according to Jack Ward, chairman,
president and CEO.
Regarding near term prospects, Mr. Ward added, "Recent softness
in retail sales, delayed cold weather and price reductions in the
screenprint channel place additional emphasis on executing our
restructuring plans. Additionally, we will incur several non-recurring
expenses in the current quarter and next year that are associated with
the implementation of our reorganization. While these pressures may
dampen prospects for 1998 and early 1999, it confirms our long-term
strategic initiatives. Based on current conditions, we continue to
believe that on an ongoing basis, we will improve fourth quarter
earnings per share by more than 50 percent."
He continued, "We are well underway with the execution of our
plan to increase competitiveness by shifting production to lower cost
areas. Additionally, our initiatives in distribution have begun to
make positive impacts by reducing costs and improving customer
service. We are also making progress in improving asset utilization.
Already, we have seen working capital requirements drop as we increase
management emphasis on improving shareholder returns."
