Mr. Kathwari further stated, "Our focus has been to position the Company for growth in sales and profitability. Our initiatives in our vertically integrated structure have helped us to reduce costs, improve the efficiency of our manufacturing, logistics and retail while at the same time improving quality and personal service. While pleased with the recent results, we remain cautious due to uncertain economic times.”
