rue21 inc. and subsidiaries (“rue21 inc.” or the “Company”) were originally incorporated in Pennsylvania in October 1976. We changed our name to rue21 inc. in May 2003 and reincorporated in Delaware on October 30, 2009. rue21 is a fast growing specialty apparel retailer offering the newest fashion trends at every day great value. At the end of fiscal year 2012, we operated 877 stores in 47 states. Many of our stores are located in small and middle market communities that we believe have been underserved by traditional specialty apparel retailers. We offer a broad selection of merchandise for anyone who wants to look and feel 21. Over the last few years, rue21 has expanded and developed a number of product categories to complement our extensive apparel offerings including rue21 etc!, our girls jewelry and accessories category, tarea by rue21, our intimate apparel, Carbon Elements, our guys accessories, and a full line of fragrances and beauty products. Our coordinated merchandise assortment allows our customer to create a complete look from head to toe, and our merchandising model allows us to quickly identify and respond to trends and bring proven concepts and styles to our customers every day at great value. We believe that the mix of fashion and key items we offer at attractive price points allows us to compete effectively against all of our competitors, from traditional specialty retailers to larger department stores and mass merchant discount retailers.
