In a challenging retail ordsprog

In a challenging retail environment, I am pleased to report our first year with net earnings in excess of $6 billion and our first-ever quarter with earnings over $2 billion,

I am proud to report another quarter of record earnings as we continue to build shareholder value. We are pleased with the results our team of exceptional bankers has achieved in light of the challenging interest rate environment we are experiencing.

Although we had anticipated tepid guidance, the company was far more conservative than we anticipated. The company projected April quarter revenue in the range of $14.2 billion to $14.6 billion, with earnings of 39 cents to 41 cents per share. This was below our previous revenue and earnings estimates of $14.6 billion and 41 cents per share.

As we enter the final month of the quarter, we are very confident in our previously stated guidance of revenue and EPS from operations in the fourth quarter in the range of $8.5 billion to $8.8 billion and earnings per share of 26 cents on a fully diluted basis,

We're very pleased to report year-over-year revenue growth of 65 percent and net income that was nearly twice the year-ago level. Looking ahead to the second quarter of fiscal 2006, we expect revenue of about $4.3 billion. We expect GAAP earnings per diluted share of about $.38, including an estimated $.04 per share expense impact from non-cash stock-based compensation, translating to non-GAAP EPS of about $.42.

It has been a very good year in an extremely challenging environment. We took several strategic steps to enhance and distribute wealth to our shareholders. What is even more gratifying is the growth in our profits from a little over US$ 1 billion to over US$ 2 billion in a span of just 24 months.

In the short term, the market remains volatile and thus difficult to predict with much certainty, ... However, we expect third quarter revenue to be in the range of $8 billion to $8.4 billion ... and earnings per share of 7 cents to 9 cents.

Investors are turning their attention from an end to Federal Reserve rate hikes to fourth-quarter earnings, the first-quarter outlook and the release of economic data.

[DETROIT - General Motors Corp. chairman and CEO Rick Wagoner said Tuesday that the automaker's turnaround plan for its North American division is on track, but he wouldn't update the company's earnings forecast. GM withdrew its earnings guidance in April after it lost $1.1 billion in the first quarter. Wagoner noted that the company had previously estimated earnings of $4 to $5 a share for the year.] We will not meet that, ... North America is missing, and missing badly.

I am pleased to report another record quarter of sales and earnings. Each of our divisions achieved profits in excess of their own aggressive plans while continuing to grow sales and market share.

We expect Jones to report total revenue of $1.15 billion, a decline of 14.4 percent versus last year, and earnings of 47 cents per share. Management did not provide quarterly guidance, and this quarter will reflect a decline in revenue due to the sale of Polo Jeans Company.

We are pleased with our results in a challenging 2005, even though the 4% improvement in diluted earnings per share from operations was below our goal to increase those earnings 10% to 15% per year over time.

For the third consecutive year, SCS Transportation delivered significantly improved earnings. Revenue surpassed $1 billion in 2005 and we achieved record results in earnings per share, even excluding a large real estate gain. We further strengthened our financial position, providing flexibility to take advantage of future opportunities. As we enter 2006, we are also encouraged by the strength of our consolidated fourth-quarter trends.

It's a good outcome because we have an attractive price of £8.9 billion. We will be returning six billion of that to shareholders and that is enhancing to our earnings per share.

Consider this: Apple says its stores are now making more than $1 billion in sales per quarter. Just two years ago, the stores were making $1 billion a year -- and at that time they were the fastest-growing retail operation in history, beating the previous record holder The Gap to $1 billion annual sales in just three years, according to Ron Johnson, the executive in charge of Apple's retail operations.
