Thank you, Oona, and good afternoon, everyone.
Today I will discuss our total company second quarter results versus the prior year followed by some more detailed notes by brand. I will also provide some commentary on our current trends and the macro environment.
Overall, the teams delivered an exceptional quarter which was nicely ahead of our plans as discussed on the first quarter call. Total URBN sales grew by 6% to a Q2 record of $1.4 billion and four of our five brands continued to perform remarkably well, posting record second quarter sales and profits.
