CEO address: FY12 outlook

==> picture [178 x 73] intentionally omitted <==

The Market

  • Unlikely to see improvement in the current retail conditions in the short term

  • Operating costs such as rent and payroll outpacing retail sales growth

  • More competition– regionally & globally “active outdoor” seen as an attractive sector

  • Volatility and unpredictability becoming the norm

Summary

  • Difficult to provide specific guidance due to the market uncertainty, but Kathmandu is planning for continued growth and remains positive about the FY12 outlook
