The quarterly cash dividend will be increased from $0.31 to $0.33 per common share and is payable on May 28, 2014 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on April 25, 2014. The aggregate quarterly dividend is estimated at approximately $31 million based on the current number of outstanding common shares.

Our decision today to increase the dividend has been based on the ongoing improvement we have seen in our performance over the past year and the fiscal year 2014 guidance we are providing today. This, combined with our multi-year share repurchase authorization announced last year, demonstrates our commitment to returning value to our shareholders. We remain confident in the cash-generating power of our multi-channel, multi-brand business model that enables us to continue to invest in our strategic long-term initiatives while also returning capital to our shareholders.”
