Forcats unchaged for 2008
Continued growth expected in 2009
Monday, November 24^th, 2008

In a particularly difficult economic and foreign exchange environment, the year-end outlook for 2008 provides a number of reasons for satisfaction:

• Burberry fragrances achieved good results driven by the successful worldwide launch of the new women’s line Burberry The Beat and the strength of the brand’s existing lines
• Lanvin fragrances also performed well, particularly in the second half, with steady sales by Eclat d’Arpège and the launch of the Jeanne Lanvin line
• Van Cleef & Arpels’ sales largely exceeded forecasts in response to solid performances by the First line and the very successful launch of the Féerie line, the Group’s first creation under this brand.

Based on very satisfactory sales for the fall season, the Group maintains its target for 2008 full-year sales of €260 million.
