The Burlington Stores, Inc. (the “Company”) press release furnished earlier today and dated December 10, 2013, regarding its operating results for the fiscal quarter ended November 2, 2013 (the “Initial Press Release”), contained an error in the second bullet point under the caption entitled “Outlook” on the second page.
That bullet point in the Initial Press Release provided as follows: “Fourth quarter Adjusted EBITDA margin rate to be 30-40 basis points better than last year.” The corrected bullet point in the corrected press release issued subsequent to the Initial Press Release and attached to this Form 8-K/A as Exhibit 99.1 provides as follows: “Full year Adjusted EBITDA margin rate to be 30-40 basis points better than last year.” In addition, Todd Weyhrich, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, issued this correction in response to a question received during the conference call held earlier today to discuss the Company’s third quarter fiscal 2013 results.
The information contained in this report, and the exhibit attached hereto, is being furnished and shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of, or otherwise regarded as filed under, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or in the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
