REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 2006 FINANCIAL RESULTS
New York, New York - July 26, 2006 - Jones Apparel Group, Inc. (NYSE:JNY) today reported results for the second quarter ended July 1, 2006. Revenues totaled $1,074.1 million versus $1,176.4 million for the second quarter of 2005. The decrease in revenues was primarily attributable to the sale of the Polo Jeans Company business during the first quarter of 2006. Polo Jeans Company contributed $69.3 million in revenues during the prior year comparable period.
Earnings per share were $0.32 for the second quarter of 2006, as compared to $0.46 in the same period last year. Excluding the impact of severance and other expenses related to the strategic operating initiatives, and expenses relating to the settlement of litigation concerning a license agreement, adjusted earnings per share for the second quarter of 2006 versus the prior year comparable period was $0.45 and $0.48, respectively, as detailed in the accompanying schedule.
Peter Boneparth, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "Our adjusted second quarter results were stronger than we had anticipated, primarily due to the continuation of similar trends that we experienced during the first quarter. The better wholesale apparel business expanded its operating profit margin by over 200 basis points, benefiting from improved gross margins and lower operating expenses versus the year ago period. Additionally, our collective moderate apparel business maintained its operating margin on a year-over-year basis and exceeded plan. While the operating margin performance of the wholesale footwear business was basically even with the prior year period, challenges within our handbag and costume jewelry businesses combined to have a negative overall effect on the business segment. Comparable store sales from our owned footwear and ready-to-wear stores (excluding Barneys New York) were down 0.8%. We were very pleased with the performance of our Barneys New York luxury retail business, which generated a comparable store sales increase of 8.9% in the quarter as it continues to exceed our expectations."
Efthimios P. Sotos, Chief Financial Officer, commented, "Inventory at July 1, 2006 totaled $585.7 million, compared to $661.7 million at the end of the prior year period. Accounts receivable at the end of the second quarter was $410.1 million, compared to $509.2 million at the end of the prior year period. We ended the quarter with $794.5 million of funded debt and, net of $88.4 million cash on hand, our debt to book capitalization ratio was 21.4%, down from 32.0% in the prior year period. Our operating cash flow for the first six months of 2006 was $261.1 million, an improvement of $109.0 million versus the comparable period in 2005, as our working capital planning remained disciplined."
Mr. Boneparth added, "We remain very pleased with the results of our strategic operating initiatives, which are well underway. As the financial results within our wholesale better apparel business demonstrate, we are achieving substantial improvements and cost reductions within the areas of pre-production, supply-chain management, customer service and compliance, and non-merchandise purchasing. We also remain on plan with the phased implementation of a single enterprise resource management system during the fourth quarter of this year. After 12 months of reviewing our business operations and implementing process improvements, we remain very comfortable with our stated cost reduction goal of approximately $30 million in 2006 and over $100 million annually by the end of 2007. These business improvements will serve to offset the impact from the department store consolidations and to expand our future operating margin."
Mr. Boneparth concluded, "Overall, we were very pleased with the Company's first half financial performance as we achieved meaningful business improvements that allowed us to exceed our plan. We believe we are heading in the right direction, and remain very comfortable with the long-term prospects of the Company. However, we are not immune from the many near-term uncertainties that continue to impact our industry. In particular, volatile consumer spending patterns, consolidation in our wholesale distribution channel, historically high fuel prices and increased interest rates, combine to form meaningful obstacles for the back half of 2006. While we expect to continue achieving business process improvements, we feel it is prudent to maintain a cautious outlook for the remainder of the year. As such, we continue to target 2006 full year adjusted earnings per share of $2.19, which is consistent with our prior guidance. Over the long term, we remain confident in our multi-brand, multi-channel business model, which serves as the cornerstone of our strategy."
The Company's Board of Directors has declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.12 per share to all common stockholders of record as of August 11, 2006 for payment on August 25, 2006.
The Company will host a conference call with management to discuss these results at 8:30 a.m. eastern time today, which is accessible by dialing 412-858-4600 or through a web cast at www.jny.com. The call will be recorded and made available through August 3 and may be accessed by dialing 877-344-7529. Enter account number 393649.

Certain statements contained herein are "forward-looking statements"within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements regarding the Company's expected financial position, business and financing plans are forward-looking statements. The words "believes,""expect,""plans,""intends,""anticipates"and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements also include representations of the Company's expectations or beliefs concerning future events that involves risks and uncertainties, including:
those associated with the effect of national and regional economic conditions;
lowered levels of consumer spending resulting from a general economic downturn or lower levels of consumer confidence;
the performance of the Company's products within the prevailing retail environment;
customer acceptance of both new designs and newly-introduced product lines;
the Company's reliance on a few department store groups for large portions of the Company's business;
consolidation of the Company's retail customers;
financial difficulties encountered by customers;
the effects of vigorous competition in the markets in which the Company operates;
uncertainties associated with the exploration of a possible sale of the Company's business, including uncertainties as to the occurrence or terms of any such transaction;
the Company's ability to identify acquisition candidates and, in an increasingly competitive environment for such acquisitions, acquire such businesses on reasonable financial and other terms;
the integration of the organizations and operations of any acquired businesses into the Company's existing organization and operations;
the Company's reliance on independent foreign manufacturers;
changes in the costs of raw materials, labor, advertising and transportation;
the general inability to obtain higher wholesale prices for the Company's products that the Company has experienced for many years;
the uncertainties of sourcing associated with the new environment in which general quota has expired on apparel products (while China has agreed to safeguard quota on certain classes of apparel products through 2008, political pressure will likely continue for restraint on importation of apparel);
the Company's ability to successfully implement new operational and financial computer systems; and
the Company's ability to secure and protect trademarks and other intellectual property rights.
A further description of these risks and uncertainties and other important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the Company's expectations can be found in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005, including, but not limited to, the Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Disclosure and Item 1A - Risk Factors therein, and in the Company's other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, such expectations may prove to be incorrect. The Company does not undertake to publicly update or revise its forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
