Ron Snyder, President and Chief Executive Officer of Crocs, Inc. commented, “Our better than expected fourth quarter results were driven by strong retail sell-through of our entire product offering and represents a great finish to an important year for our Company. Throughout the quarter we witnessed ongoing demand for our classic footwear both here and abroad, coupled with growing consumer acceptance of our new styles. At the same time, our Collegiate and Disney collections are both off to a tremendous start which bodes well as we look to further expand and evolve our licensing programs. We enter the new year with great momentum evidenced by our heightened outlook for 2007.”
Guidance

Equally important, we made tremendous progress diversifying our product line, expanding our business both domestically and overseas, increasing our brand recognition, further building our infrastructure, and creating new vehicles for growth. We are very pleased with all we have accomplished over the past 12-months and move forward more excited than ever about the significant near- and long-term opportunities we believe exist for our company.”
