“This is a very strategic transaction for both companies,” said E. Scott Beattie, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Elizabeth Arden, Inc. “We have worked closely together through our existing distribution relationship and are very familiar with the Liz Claiborne fragrance portfolio. Specifically, this transaction will allow us to (i) benefit from improved market share and productivity in our North American fragrance business, (ii) gain efficiencies from a larger fragrance business, particularly within our supply chain, logistics and sales organizations, (iii) increase gross margins by converting existing mass customer sales from a distribution margin to an owned/licensed margin and (iv) provide additional sales volume to our fast-growing international business. We look forward to working collaboratively with the Liz Claiborne brand teams to continue Liz Claiborne’s success with respect to the marketing and brand development of these distinctive fragrance brands.”

William L. McComb, Chief Executive Officer of Liz Claiborne Inc., said, “Fragrance is an important equity enhancing category for our brands. For us to maximize profitability in this business going forward, however, we would have to make significant changes to how it is operated. Doing that right now would distract us from other initiatives currently underway that are core to our strategy. Through this partnership with Elizabeth Arden, we can continue to successfully develop and market brand enhancing fragrances in a more capital efficient manner, leveraging our strength in brand building with Arden’s expertise in developing and growing fragrance businesses. This is another example of how diligently we are pursuing our strategy. We expect this transaction to have a positive impact on our 2008 cash flows and to have no impact on 2008 projected adjusted EPS and operating margin. Looking forward to 2009 and beyond, we expect the impact of the royalty income from this transaction to be accretive to both EPS and operating margin.”

Elizabeth Arden expects this transaction to contribute to both net sales and earnings growth in fiscal 2009. Elizabeth Arden expects to incur advertising and marketing expenses paid by Liz Claiborne and other transaction related expenses during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008 and the first half of fiscal 2009. Additionally, Elizabeth Arden expects its gross margins to be impacted in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008 and through the first half of fiscal 2009 by the sale of Liz Claiborne inventory that Elizabeth Arden acquired prior to the effective date as a distributor. After including the full impact of these costs, Elizabeth Arden expects this transaction to be accretive to earnings in the first half of fiscal 2009. Elizabeth Arden will provide further discussion and guidance for fiscal 2009 during its fourth quarter fiscal year 2008 conference call in August 2008.

The effectiveness of the licensing agreement is subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, including satisfaction of the requirements of the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended. Terms of the agreement were not disclosed.

THIRD QUARTER RESULTS

Net sales increased 14.6% to $219.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007 from $191.3 million in the comparable period of the prior year. Net sales growth was driven by increased sales of prestige fragrances to mass retail customers, sales of new fragrances, including Elizabeth Arden Mediterranean and with Love… Hilary Duff, and higher sales globally of the Elizabeth Arden brand. Excluding the favorable impact of foreign currency translation, net sales increased 12.6%.

Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was $3.2 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, compared to net income of $0.7 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, in the same period last year. Earnings for the current year period were positively impacted by a tax benefit of $0.01 per diluted share related to R&D tax credits. Earnings for the prior year period include debt extinguishment charges of $0.02 per diluted share.

E. Scott Beattie, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Elizabeth Arden, Inc., commented, “The key drivers of our business performed well this quarter, and we expect this trend to continue for the remainder of this fiscal year and into fiscal 2008. Our U.S. mass retail business delivered another strong quarter. Net sales of the mass business unit grew by 26%, well ahead of the category growth, and we are expanding our market share with those retailers. The second key driver, our international business, increased over 10% led by strong growth in the Asia Pacific and travel retail markets. Global sales of Elizabeth Arden branded skin care and color products are growing rapidly and have experienced double-digit increases so far this fiscal year. We expect growth of the Elizabeth Arden brand in total to continue to accelerate due to the recent launch of our new fragrance Elizabeth Arden Mediterranean.”

Mr. Beattie continued, “During the third quarter we also integrated the remaining functions related to the acquisition of Sovereign Sales. With the transition costs essentially behind us, we expect the acquisitions, along with a strong pipeline of new fragrance brands for the U.S. mass retail market, to contribute to improved operating earnings and earnings growth for the balance of this fiscal year and fiscal 2008.”

NINE MONTHS RESULTS

For the nine months ended March 31, 2007, net sales rose 15.7% to $884.8 million from $764.6 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2006. Excluding the favorable impact of foreign currency translation, net sales increased 14.5%. Net income was $27.7 million, or $0.97 per diluted share, versus $34.7 million, or $1.17 per diluted share, for the year-ago period. The results for the nine months ended March 31, 2007 include restructuring charges of $0.05 per diluted share related to the Company’s previously announced restructuring, and results for the prior nine-month period include debt extinguishment charges of $0.02 per diluted share.

OUTLOOK

The Company confirms its fiscal 2007 net sales and earnings guidance and expects diluted earnings per share in the range of $1.15 to $1.20 and net sales to increase by 15% to 18% over prior fiscal year net sales of $954.6 million. The Company notes that it utilizes foreign currency hedges and that its net sales guidance is based on current foreign currency rates. The earnings guidance reflects no change to the full fiscal year anticipated effective tax rate of 25.6%. The earnings guidance also excludes restructuring charges.

(a) EBITDA is defined as net income plus the provision for income
 taxes, plus interest expense, plus depreciation and amortization.
 EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to operating income
 or net income (as determined in accordance with generally accepted
 accounting principles (GAAP)) as a measure of our operating
 performance or to net cash provided by operating, investing and
 financing activities (as determined in accordance with GAAP) or as a
 measure of our ability to meet cash needs. We believe that EBITDA is
 a measure commonly reported and widely used by investors and other
 interested parties as a measure of a company’s operating performance
 and debt servicing ability because it assists in comparing
 performance on a consistent basis without regard to capital
 structure, depreciation and amortization or non-operating factors
 (such as historical cost). Accordingly, as a result of our capital
 structure, we believe EBITDA is a relevant measure. This information
 has been disclosed here to permit a more complete comparative
 analysis of our operating performance relative to other companies and
 of our debt servicing ability. EBITDA may not, however, be comparable
 in all instances to other similar types of measures.

The following is a reconciliation of net income, as determined in
 accordance with GAAP, to EBITDA: (For a reconciliation of net income
 to EBITDA for prior periods, see the Company’s filings with the

SECOND QUARTER RESULTS

Net sales increased 18.8% to $410.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2006 from $345.9 million in the comparable period of the prior year. Sales growth was driven by a significant increase in fragrance brands sold to the Company’s mass retail customers, sales of new brands, including the With Love… Hilary Duff fragrance and the fragrance brands resulting from the June 2006 Riviera Concepts acquisition. In addition, higher sales of the Company’s Elizabeth Arden branded skin care and color products and growth in the Company’s businesses in China and Taiwan contributed to the net sales increase. Excluding the favorable impact of foreign currency translation, net sales increased 17.3%.

Net income for the three months ended December 31, 2006 was $26.2 million, or $0.92 per diluted share, excluding previously announced restructuring charges of $0.3 million after taxes related to the Company’s restructuring in its European operations, compared to net income of $33.1 million, or $1.12 per diluted share, in the same period last year. On a reported basis, net income was $25.9 million, or $0.91 per diluted share. As previously announced, the Company’s earnings for the second quarter of fiscal 2007 were impacted by transition and integration expenses associated with the Company’s recent acquisitions.

E. Scott Beattie, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Elizabeth Arden, Inc., commented, “We are pleased with our second quarter results and the general execution of our business. Our better than planned earnings reflect the strength of our broad-based business model, which spans multiple retail channels and geographies, as well as the strength of our brand portfolio. Overall, the recent acquisitions are performing ahead of our original expectations. We have completed the transition of the distribution activities out of the Sovereign Sales facility and are on schedule to integrate all remaining functions during the third fiscal quarter. Although With Love… Hilary Duff ranked among the top three Fall fragrance launches at U.S. department stores, our recently launched fragrances were short of our internal retail sales expectations, largely due to a softer than expected holiday season for fragrances at U.S. department stores. The rest of our business units, however, performed at or better than plan.”

Mr. Beattie continued, “Our U.S. mass retail business increased significantly, and we are expanding our market share. This growth was led by the acquisitions and the strength of the Britney Spears fragrance franchise, which experienced double-digit gains this quarter in sales to mass retailers as well as in our international markets.”

Mr. Beattie added, “In addition, net sales of our Elizabeth Arden branded skin care and color products rose 18% this quarter and 20% for the first half of the fiscal year. This is a result of our very strong product innovation and improved brand promotion and advertising globally. Our international business achieved another quarter of solid sales growth, with increases across most markets and particularly in Asia. Our focus on the Elizabeth Arden brand, including the introduction of products such as PREVAGE™ anti-aging treatment, is also resulting in improved retail sales and productivity at U.S. department stores. The repositioning of PREVAGE™ to the beauty counter, for example, has lifted the retail performance of our Elizabeth Arden skin care and color business.”

SIX MONTHS RESULTS

For the six-months ended December 31, 2006, net sales rose 16.1% to $665.6 million from $573.3 million for the six months ended December 31, 2005. Excluding the favorable impact of foreign currency translation, net sales increased 15.0%. Net income was $25.8 million, or $0.91 per diluted share, versus $34.0 million, or $1.15 million per diluted share, for the year-ago period. The results for the six months ended December 31, 2006 exclude restructuring charges of $1.2 million after taxes related to the Company’s previously announced restructuring charges. On a reported basis, net income was $24.5 million, or $0.86 per diluted share.

OUTLOOK

The Company confirms its fiscal 2007 annual net sales guidance. For the fiscal year, the Company currently anticipates net sales will increase by approximately 15% to 18%, assuming current foreign currency rates. The Company is raising the lower end of its fiscal 2007 earnings guidance range and currently estimates diluted earnings per share in the range of $1.15 to $1.20, versus its previous guidance range of $1.10 to $1.20.

The Company currently expects net sales to range between $215 million to $230 million for each of the third and fourth fiscal quarters. Diluted earnings per share for the third fiscal quarter are currently estimated to be in the range of $0.01 to $0.06. The Company expects to incur in its third fiscal quarter the final transition expenses for the Sovereign Sales acquisition and increased investment to support the global roll-out of the With Love… Hilary Duff fragrance, PREVAGE™ Eye skin treatment and the Intervene skin care line and the global launch of the new Elizabeth Arden fragrance, Elizabeth Arden Mediterranean.

Mr. Beattie concluded, “As we look forward to the second half of the year, we are excited about the global introduction of the new Elizabeth Arden fragrance, Elizabeth Arden Mediterranean, to support the strong growth of the Elizabeth Arden skin care and color business globally. Prevage Eye continues to gain traction and is lifting total sales of the Prevage™ skin care line and the entire Elizabeth Arden skin care and color business. In addition, we anticipate sales from the recent acquisitions, a strong pipeline of new distributed brands in the U.S. mass retail market, the successful roll-out of recently launched brands and continued growth of our international business to contribute to the second half results.”

(a) EBITDA is defined as net income plus the provision for income
 taxes, plus interest expense, plus depreciation and amortization.
 EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to operating income
 or net income (as determined in accordance with generally accepted
 accounting principles (GAAP)) as a measure of our operating
 performance or to net cash provided by operating, investing and
 financing activities (as determined in accordance with GAAP) or as a
 measure of our ability to meet cash needs. We believe that EBITDA is
 a measure commonly reported and widely used by investors and other
 interested parties as a measure of a company’s operating performance
 and debt servicing ability because it assists in comparing
 performance on a consistent basis without regard to capital
 structure, depreciation and amortization or non-operating factors
 (such as historical cost). Accordingly, as a result of our capital
 structure, we believe EBITDA is a relevant measure. This information
 has been disclosed here to permit a more complete comparative
 analysis of our operating performance relative to other companies and
 of our debt servicing ability. EBITDA may not, however, be comparable
 in all instances to other similar types of measures.

The following is a reconciliation of net income, as determined in
 accordance with GAAP, to EBITDA: (For a reconciliation of net income

SECOND QUARTER RESULTS

Net sales increased 18.8% to $410.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2006 from $345.9 million in the comparable period of the prior year. Sales growth was driven by a significant increase in fragrance brands sold to the Company’s mass retail customers, sales of new brands, including the With Love… Hilary Duff fragrance and the fragrance brands resulting from the June 2006 Riviera Concepts acquisition. In addition, higher sales of the Company’s Elizabeth Arden branded skin care and color products and growth in the Company’s businesses in China and Taiwan contributed to the net sales increase. Excluding the favorable impact of foreign currency translation, net sales increased 17.3%.

Net income for the three months ended December 31, 2006 was $26.2 million, or $0.92 per diluted share, excluding previously announced restructuring charges of $0.3 million after taxes related to the Company’s restructuring in its European operations, compared to net income of $33.1 million, or $1.12 per diluted share, in the same period last year. On a reported basis, net income was $25.9 million, or $0.91 per diluted share. As previously announced, the Company’s earnings for the second quarter of fiscal 2007 were impacted by transition and integration expenses associated with the Company’s recent acquisitions.

E. Scott Beattie, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Elizabeth Arden, Inc., commented, “We are pleased with our second quarter results and the general execution of our business. Our better than planned earnings reflect the strength of our broad-based business model, which spans multiple retail channels and geographies, as well as the strength of our brand portfolio. Overall, the recent acquisitions are performing ahead of our original expectations. We have completed the transition of the distribution activities out of the Sovereign Sales facility and are on schedule to integrate all remaining functions during the third fiscal quarter. Although With Love… Hilary Duff ranked among the top three Fall fragrance launches at U.S. department stores, our recently launched fragrances were short of our internal retail sales expectations, largely due to a softer than expected holiday season for fragrances at U.S. department stores. The rest of our business units, however, performed at or better than plan.”

Mr. Beattie continued, “Our U.S. mass retail business increased significantly, and we are expanding our market share. This growth was led by the acquisitions and the strength of the Britney Spears fragrance franchise, which experienced double-digit gains this quarter in sales to mass retailers as well as in our international markets.”

Mr. Beattie added, “In addition, net sales of our Elizabeth Arden branded skin care and color products rose 18% this quarter and 20% for the first half of the fiscal year. This is a result of our very strong product innovation and improved brand promotion and advertising globally. Our international business achieved another quarter of solid sales growth, with increases across most markets and particularly in Asia. Our focus on the Elizabeth Arden brand, including the introduction of products such as PREVAGE™ anti-aging treatment, is also resulting in improved retail sales and productivity at U.S. department stores. The repositioning of PREVAGE™ to the beauty counter, for example, has lifted the retail performance of our Elizabeth Arden skin care and color business.”

SIX MONTHS RESULTS

For the six-months ended December 31, 2006, net sales rose 16.1% to $665.6 million from $573.3 million for the six months ended December 31, 2005. Excluding the favorable impact of foreign currency translation, net sales increased 15.0%. Net income was $25.8 million, or $0.91 per diluted share, versus $34.0 million, or $1.15 million per diluted share, for the year-ago period. The results for the six months ended December 31, 2006 exclude restructuring charges of $1.2 million after taxes related to the Company’s previously announced restructuring charges. On a reported basis, net income was $24.5 million, or $0.86 per diluted share.

OUTLOOK

The Company confirms its fiscal 2007 annual net sales guidance. For the fiscal year, the Company currently anticipates net sales will increase by approximately 15% to 18%, assuming current foreign currency rates. The Company is raising the lower end of its fiscal 2007 earnings guidance range and currently estimates diluted earnings per share in the range of $1.15 to $1.20, versus its previous guidance range of $1.10 to $1.20.

The Company currently expects net sales to range between $215 million to $230 million for each of the third and fourth fiscal quarters. Diluted earnings per share for the third fiscal quarter are currently estimated to be in the range of $0.01 to $0.06. The Company expects to incur in its third fiscal quarter the final transition expenses for the Sovereign Sales acquisition and increased investment to support the global roll-out of the With Love… Hilary Duff fragrance, PREVAGE™ Eye skin treatment and the Intervene skin care line and the global launch of the new Elizabeth Arden fragrance, Elizabeth Arden Mediterranean.

Mr. Beattie concluded, “As we look forward to the second half of the year, we are excited about the global introduction of the new Elizabeth Arden fragrance, Elizabeth Arden Mediterranean, to support the strong growth of the Elizabeth Arden skin care and color business globally. Prevage Eye continues to gain traction and is lifting total sales of the Prevage™ skin care line and the entire Elizabeth Arden skin care and color business. In addition, we anticipate sales from the recent acquisitions, a strong pipeline of new distributed brands in the U.S. mass retail market, the successful roll-out of recently launched brands and continued growth of our international business to contribute to the second half results.”

(a) EBITDA is defined as net income plus the provision for income
 taxes, plus interest expense, plus depreciation and amortization.
 EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to operating income
 or net income (as determined in accordance with generally accepted
 accounting principles (GAAP)) as a measure of our operating
 performance or to net cash provided by operating, investing and
 financing activities (as determined in accordance with GAAP) or as a
 measure of our ability to meet cash needs. We believe that EBITDA is
 a measure commonly reported and widely used by investors and other
 interested parties as a measure of a company’s operating performance
 and debt servicing ability because it assists in comparing
 performance on a consistent basis without regard to capital
 structure, depreciation and amortization or non-operating factors
 (such as historical cost). Accordingly, as a result of our capital
 structure, we believe EBITDA is a relevant measure. This information
 has been disclosed here to permit a more complete comparative
 analysis of our operating performance relative to other companies and
 of our debt servicing ability. EBITDA may not, however, be comparable

I am about to fly on a long distance holiday. Not all of your customers fly first class with limitless luggage allowed. Fortunately I am near the end of my current container, so will tip some from the new one into it for traveling. Also the cost of shipping worldwide by Arden must also have increased.

Unfortunately the new container is a disappointing non-descript colour. I much prefer the more sophisticated gold and black combination.

Is there anyway you can convey my concerns to the Parent Company? I have been an Elizabeth Arden customer for more years than would care to reveal and have had no cause to complain before.

Thank you for your consideration of the above.
All the best

FISCAL 2006 RESULTS

In line with prior guidance, net sales increased 3.7% to $954.6 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006 from $920.5 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2005. Excluding the unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation, net sales increased 4.4%.

Net income for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006, was $34.2 million, or $1.15 per diluted share, excluding pre-tax charges of $0.8 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, associated with the early retirement of the remaining 11 3/4% Senior Notes and $1.2 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, associated with the previously announced organizational changes in the Company’s European operations. Adjusted for these charges and stock compensation expense related to FAS 123R, net income was $38.5 million or $1.29 per diluted share. This compares to $39.1 million or $1.30 per diluted share for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2005. The prior year results exclude the pre-tax impairment charge related to the sale of the Miami Lakes facility of $2.2 million, or $0.05 per diluted share. On a reported basis, net income for fiscal 2006 was $32.8 million, or $1.10 per diluted share.

Cash flow from operations was in-line with the Company’s expectations and increased over 80% to $65 million for fiscal 2006 from $35.5 million in fiscal 2005. In fiscal 2006, the Company also repurchased 1,338,127 shares of its common stock at an aggregate cost of $25.3 million, prepaid $9.3 million of long-term debt and completed the acquisition of the brand portfolio from Riviera Concepts Inc., a prestige fragrance company.

E. Scott Beattie, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Elizabeth Arden, Inc., commented, “While results were in line with our previous guidance, they were short of our original budget for fiscal 2006. Despite the strength of our new product introductions, external factors including the May Company and Federated Department Stores merger and resultant store closings, inventory reduction initiatives led by Wal-Mart, Target and other mass retailers and the general weakness experienced in the European markets in the first half of the fiscal year all had a negative impact on sales and operating margins this fiscal year. In addition, while the impact was incorporated into our original budget, the loss of distribution of certain brands related to the sale of the Unilever prestige fragrance brand portfolio resulted in a loss of mass retail volume this year as compared to last year. Fortunately, much of the impact from these factors is behind us and we expect improved revenue growth and operating performance from our business this year.”

The Company recently completed two acquisitions, including the acquisition of prestige fragrance distributor Sovereign Sales, LLC on August 11, 2006 and the acquisition of the brand licenses of Riviera Concepts Inc. in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006. Sovereign Sales has been a distributor of prestige fragrances to mass retail customers in North America for over 20 years and distributes many top-ranked prestige fragrance brands to these retailers. The Company financed the acquisitions with a combination of free cash flow and borrowings under an expanded bank credit facility. The acquisitions are expected to be dilutive to earnings in the first half of fiscal 2007 due to integration-related costs, including redundant distribution, warehousing and other operating costs, increased investment to support the acquired brands and additional amortization and interest expense.

Mr. Beattie continued, “The recent acquisitions represent a great strategic fit for our Company, complementing our existing brand portfolio. The acquisitions will provide us with increased market share in the mass channel in North America and allow us to better leverage our sales and distribution infrastructure. In addition, the Riviera acquisition provides us with a number of exciting brands for specialty and prestige retailers globally. While transition costs related to the acquisitions will be dilutive to earnings in the first half of fiscal 2007, particularly in the first quarter, we expect the acquisitions to be accretive beginning in the second half of this fiscal year and into fiscal 2008. The revenue contribution from the acquisitions combined with the level of new product launches planned should position us to deliver double-digit increases in annual sales this year and to contribute strongly to our profitability and cash flow beginning in the second half of this fiscal year and in fiscal 2008.”

FOURTH QUARTER RESULTS

Net sales increased to $189.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006 from $187.1 million in the comparable three-month period of the prior fiscal year. The impact of foreign currency translation was not material.

Net loss per share improved to breakeven for the fourth quarter ended June 30, 2006 compared to a loss of $0.11 in the prior year period. Earnings results for the current year period exclude the FAS123R stock compensation expense and restructuring charges discussed above. Results for the comparable period of the prior year exclude the pre-tax impairment charge related to the sale of the Company’s Miami Lakes facility. Including the FAS 123R stock compensation expense, the loss for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006 was $0.04 per share. On a reported basis, the Company had a loss of $0.07 per share for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006 compared to a loss of $0.16 per share for same period of the prior fiscal year.

OUTLOOK

The Company currently anticipates annual net sales will increase by approximately 15% to 18% to $1.10 billion to $1.13 billion, assuming no impact from foreign currency translation. The net sales guidance is based on the successful introductions of the new fragrance launches and the expected contribution of the recent acquisitions. Certain external factors, including the impact to the Company’s travel retail business as a result of recent security measures implemented at airports, and the ability to integrate the acquisitions as planned may impact the Company’s guidance.

With respect to earnings guidance, acquisition-related costs, including transition expenses and higher interest and amortization costs are expected to impact earnings in fiscal 2007. In addition, the Company expects to incur increased advertising expenditures to support a significant level of launch activity, including the Hilary Duff, Danielle Steel and Badgley Mischka fragrances and the PREVAGE(TM) Eye anti-aging skin care product, all of which are launching in U.S department stores in the fall of 2006, and the new Mariah Carey and Elizabeth Arden fragrances scheduled to launch in the Spring of 2007. As a result of these activities, advertising and marketing expenses are expected to increase by approximately 20% in fiscal 2007 as compared to fiscal 2006. After considering these factors, the Company expects earnings for fiscal 2007 to be in the range of $1.10 to $1.20. The Company also expects cash flow from operations, excluding cash used for the purchase of Sovereign, to increase to approximately $100 million.

Regarding the first half of fiscal 2007, net sales are anticipated to increase by approximately 15% to 18% over the first half of fiscal 2006. Earnings per diluted share are expected to be below the first half of fiscal 2006, with the first quarter to be impacted more than the second quarter. The Company’s earnings for the first and second fiscal quarters are expected to reflect the acquisition-related costs and the timing of brand development and marketing expenditures to support the launches, which will be incurred primarily in the first fiscal quarter, and the leverage from increased sales volumes realized in the second fiscal quarter. Taking these factors into account, earnings per diluted share are expected to range between $0.75 and $0.85 for the six months ended December 31, 2006.

Mr. Beattie concluded, “This will be a busy year for us in terms of innovation as we are launching several new fragrance brands this year. Retailer reception for the fragrances from Hilary Duff and Danielle Steel is enthusiastic, with retailers expecting With Love… Hilary Duff to be a top three fragrance launch this fall season, and many retailers speculating it will be the number one launch and Danielle by Danielle Steel to surpass their original expectations after reviewing the brand and marketing campaign. In addition, the Badgley Mischka fragrance launched in July exclusively at Neiman Marcus and is off to a strong start. In the spring, we are launching a new fragrance under a license with Mariah Carey and a new Elizabeth Arden fragrance. PREVAGE(TM) remains a top three anti-aging product in its category, and we are launching an eye product this fall. Finally, our business in China and Taiwan is growing rapidly, with net sales more than doubling in the fourth quarter over the third quarter, and we will continue to invest in and develop these markets.”

(a) Based on the percentage of net sales for the periods.

(b) EBITDA is defined as net income plus the provision for income
taxes (or net loss less the benefit from income taxes), plus interest
expense, plus depreciation and amortization. EBITDA should not be
considered as an alternative to operating income (loss) or net income
(loss) (as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles (GAAP)) as a measure of our operating performance or to net
cash provided by operating, investing and financing activities (as
determined in accordance with GAAP) or as a measure of our ability to
meet cash needs. We believe that EBITDA is a measure commonly reported
and widely used by investors and other interested parties as a measure
of a company’s operating performance and debt servicing ability
because it assists in comparing performance on a consistent basis
without regard to capital structure, depreciation and amortization or
non-operating factors (such as historical cost). Accordingly, as a
result of our capital structure, we believe EBITDA is a relevant
measure. This information has been disclosed here to permit a more
complete comparative analysis of our operating performance relative to
other companies and of our debt servicing ability. EBITDA may not,
however, be comparable in all instances to other similar types of
measures.

The following is a reconciliation of net income (loss), as determined
in accordance with GAAP, to EBITDA: (For a reconciliation of net
income to EBITDA for prior periods, see the Company’s filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission which can be found on the Company’s
website at corporate.elizabetharden.com).

(c) The following tables reconcile the calculation of net income per
share on a basic and fully diluted basis from the amounts reported in
accordance with GAAP to such amounts before giving effect to the
impact of adopting FAS 123R, share-based payments, net of taxes, debt
extinguishment charge and other charges. This disclosure is being
provided because we believe it is meaningful to our investors and
other interested parties to understand the Company’s operating
performance for comparability purposes and on a consistent basis
without regard to the impact of adopting FAS 123R, share-based
payments, debt extinguishment charge and other charges. The
presentation of the non-GAAP information titled “Net income per share
as adjusted, before giving effect to the adoption of FAS 123R,
share-based payments, debt extinguishment charge and other charges,
net of taxes” or “Net income per diluted share as adjusted, before
giving effect to the adoption of FAS 123R, share-based payments, debt
extinguishment charge and other charges, net of taxes” is not meant to
be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income or
diluted income per share prepared in accordance with GAAP.
