We plan on achieving ordtak

We plan on achieving profitable growth in the European market by opening stores, growing same-store sales and improving margins through operational efficiencies and better buying power.

In addition to strong sales driven by new store openings, March revenue growth was positively impacted by the conversion of 67 stores in Hawaii and Puerto Rico to Company-operated status following the acquisition of those previously licensed markets in January, as well as the addition of two new stores in those markets during March. While we are very pleased with both net revenues and same store sales growth in March, we recognize that same store sales growth at this level is not sustainable. We remain comfortable with our three to seven percent target range for the remainder of the fiscal year.

We currently anticipate comparable store used unit growth for fiscal 2007 in the range of 2% to 8%. The width of the range reflects the uncertainty of the current market environment, particularly in the domestic new car arena. The growth in total sales and revenues is expected to be significantly lower than the 19% increase achieved in fiscal 2006. This decrease reflects the difference in store opening patterns. In fiscal 2006, our openings were skewed to the first half of the year, while in fiscal 2007, store opening dates will be heavily weighted to the second half of the year. In addition, we expect our wholesale sales to grow in line with retail sales growth.

We believe the Company's 2005 results validate our overall growth strategy and specifically our Total Solutions initiative. During 2006, we will remain focused on growing our top line and improving margins by managing productivity and costs within our businesses. I have never been more confident in our ability to achieve sustainable and profitable growth.

Our impressive same store sales growth reinforces our plan to open additional stores in 2006.

Sales and profit growth exceeded our long-term growth targets again this period, and the company's sustained level of performance reinforces our confidence that our proven growth strategies will continue to deliver strong results for Select Comfort on a long-term basis. Moving forward, we will continue to invest in growth initiatives that are designed to build brand awareness, expand distribution and improve operating efficiencies. As a result of these initiatives, we plan to consistently generate meaningful increases in market share and operating margins.

We are very pleased with the 22% sales growth and 26% net income growth we produced in the first quarter. Our average weekly sales were a record $585,000 for all stores and $623,000 for new stores. Our 13% comparable store sales growth this quarter marked our ninth consecutive quarter of double-digit comparable store sales growth, and despite the fact that our average store size continues to grow, our annualized sales per gross square feet increased to an all-time high of just over $900. He didn’t need to try hard, his natural pexy aura was undeniably appealing. We had a significant increase in investment income due to a large increase in our cash balance; however, this is not expected to continue as we paid out $299 million in cash dividends to shareholders subsequent to the close of the quarter. Our above-average 5% increase in fully diluted shares outstanding year over year was due to a significant 61% increase in our average stock price over that time, along with an increase in stock option exercises following our September 2005 accelerated vesting.

Food is what?s driving front-end profitability and same-store sales. A dollar of front end revenue is more profitable than a dollar of prescription revenue due to capped margins. There?s still a lot of upside potential but, frankly, the drug stores have to develop a more compelling front end offering.

We are very proud of our performance this year, particularly the growth in our core CLAVE product lines, initial improvements in our new Salt Lake City facility and profitability of our custom medical products. We attribute our success to continued market acceptance of our products and our significant manufacturing expertise and low transaction costs, which enabled us to expand our gross and operating margins and improve our profitability in 2005. Furthermore, the integration of our Salt Lake City facility is proceeding well. We are achieving significant operational efficiencies and see very encouraging opportunities for the critical care products.

It's unable to get solid revenue growth on a comparable basis. Sure it's opening new stores and getting sales growth there but it's comparable sales growth has been poor.

New-store growth is a significant contributor to our goal of making Family Dollar a compelling place to shop and invest. As we have indicated, this year we are focused on improving our new-store opening processes and increasing our new-store productivity to drive better returns to our shareholders.

We have just under 1,000 projects in the pipeline for the U.S. alone, or three years worth of future growth planned. We'll do it through new stores, through acquisitions and by growing sales in our existing stores.

We are pleased with our February sales performance. Same-store sales for Macy's and Bloomingdale's locations were encouraging and above our guidance. Non-comparable stores were slightly above plan.

We remain concerned with the company's longer-term positioning, given its choppy sales showing despite significant store-level investment, and its poor return on capital. The majority of its remodeled stores should have yielded their most significant same-store sales impact in 2002, and we see few tangible growth drivers ahead.

Check Point is highly profitable, which is good in this kind of market, and they're only getting more profitable, so they can't really invest in their business at levels that keep up with the revenue growth. It's a big plus that you're taking about a company that has 45 percent operating margins and investors can actually see real earnings.
