Item 2.02.Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On May 2, 2006, The Timberland Company (referred to as “Timberland”, “Company”, “we”, “our”, or “us”) issued a press release setting forth the Company’s first-quarter 2006 results. A copy of our press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.
The attached press release includes a discussion of constant dollar revenue growth and diluted earnings per share excluding restructuring and related costs, and diluted EPS excluding restructuring and related costs and including stock-based employee compensation costs, which are non-GAAP measures, and a reconciliation of each to a GAAP measure. We provide constant dollar revenue growth for total Company and international results because we use the measure to understand revenue growth excluding any impact from foreign exchange rate changes. We provide diluted earnings per share excluding restructuring and related costs because we use the measure to understand earnings excluding non-recurring costs. We provide diluted EPS excluding restructuring and related costs and including stock-based employee compensation costs for 2005 to provide comparability to 2006 reported results.
