On November 6, 2013, American Eagle Outfitters, Inc. (the "Company") issued a press release announcing, among other things, the Company's revised earnings guidance for the third quarter ended November 2, 2013. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1. The revised earnings guidance excludes non-cash charges associated with closing a distribution center, as previously disclosed in the Form 8-K dated September 5, 2013 and filed on September 9, 2013. Non-GAAP Measures The revised earnings guidance includes information on non-GAAP earnings per diluted share ("non-GAAP" or "adjusted"). This measure is not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and is not necessarily comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. The company believes that this non-GAAP information is useful as an additional means for investors to evaluate the company's operating performance, when reviewed in conjunction with the company's GAAP financial statements. These amounts are not determined in accordance with GAAP and therefore, should not be used exclusively in evaluating the company's business and operations.
