Total net sales for fiscal 2010 (52 weeks) increased 17.5% to $478.8 million from $407.6 million in fiscal 2009 (52 weeks). The Company posted net income of $24.2 million, or $0.79 per diluted share, including costs of $2.4 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, associated with the relocation of the Company's distribution center to Corona, CA from Everett, WA, and $2.1 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, for the settlement of a previously disclosed lawsuit.

"We are very pleased with the strength of our fiscal and fourth quarter 2010 sales, up over 17%, and the significant increase in earnings for both the year and the quarter," commented Rick Brooks, Chief Executive Officer of Zumiez. "Our record fourth quarter earnings reflect great execution by our team and underscores the uniqueness of our concept. We believe the actions we are taking by focusing on a wide selection of brands and strong customer service, combined with the people and infrastructure investments have us well positioned to carry this momentum forward and pursue our growth initiatives."

2011 Outlook

The Company is introducing guidance for the three months ending April 30, 2011 of a net loss per diluted share of approximately $0.03 to $0.00. This guidance is based on an anticipated comparable store sales increase in the mid to high single digit range for the first quarter of fiscal 2011.

The Company currently intends to open approximately 44 new stores in fiscal 2011, including its first stores in Canada, with an opening cadence similar to fiscal 2010.

A conference call will be held today to discuss fourth quarter results and there will be a webcast at 5:00 p.m. ET on http://ir.zumiez.com. Participants may also dial (857) 350-1679 followed by the conference identification code of 16262619.
