Andrew McLean: Thanks, Tom. Good evening, and thank you for joining us. To begin today’s call, I want to spend a moment talking about a key theme we have seen over the past several months, including over the course of the second quarter and importantly, continuing into the third quarter. That theme is a noticeable increase in momentum across our business. Across our key product categories, channels, and engagement, we are seeing improvements that give us confidence that our strategy to serve our customers’ every journey is working. Our weatherproof assortment that prioritizes newness and speed to market continues to resonate with customers, enables more high-quality sales, and deepens customer loyalty. Turning to the second quarter, we continued to reach new and existing customers across a broad base of channels as we have done in previous quarters.

Q&A Session

We are engaging with them where and when they want to shop and providing considered merchandise stories that resonate individually and create leverage as we reposition the brand via a sophisticated distributed commerce model. Our increasing shift towards an asset-light, low capital intensity model allows us to rapidly deploy newness to optimize customer engagement. And with GMV holding steady year on year, we are beginning to see the benefits of that work. In the B2B channel, our team built on their successes by deepening relationships in the travel and banking sectors, extending a number of our long-term enterprise contracts. Critically, we continue to invest in our brand. Our deliberate strategy to weatherproof our assortment with solutions for life’s every journey and deliver for our customers in any environment while also enhancing speed across our supply chain has enabled us to be nimble and react quickly.

Especially as we see buying patterns shifting to more wear and out items. In the second quarter, the B2C businesses were dominated by our licensing and third-party marketplaces, we continue to see vastly expanded reach resulting in a more balanced model that importantly, delivers over half of our new customer growth on virtually no capital investment. With regard to sourcing, as you have heard us talk about over the past several quarters, we have been intentionally repositioning our sourcing network to better serve the business we are building leading to a more balanced supply chain that enables us to bring new solutions to customers with more speed and frequency throughout the year. For example, our license partners are becoming part of our sourcing network.

Allowing us low lift access to their vendor networks while also providing those same partners with leverage from the Lands’ End, Inc. sourcing footprint. Another consequential outcome of our updated sourcing strategy has been the ability to navigate tariffs. By tapping into the full breadth of our sourcing matrix, we are able to swiftly and strategically reposition fabric and manufacturing as tariff conditions evolve. The resilience is there to see as we continue to deliver gross margin rates above last year in the quarter, even as we felt initial tariff headwinds. We feel confident that we have mitigated the near-term impact of tariffs for the remainder of fiscal 2025. Especially with the majority of our fall holiday items already shipped.

As Bernie will detail, this is reflected in our guidance. Turning to product. We had notable wins, We launched a focused Lands’ End Essentials line on Amazon, consisting of approximately 40 styles providing access points to new and existing customers. The product key item basics across women’s, men’s, and swim, is priced at the good end of our merchandising pyramid. If the taste of the solutions Lands’ End, Inc. is famous for, invites the customer to find the better, best assortment on our brand site. This Essentials product line is a perfect segue from our licensing product to our brand and is attracting new customers. In the brand channels, credit to the tote bag, where our ongoing efforts to collaborate and innovate ranging in size from Meade to Maxi and in construction from canvas to straw have allowed us to expand the assortment.

We also added a customization package that is unique in the industry. As seasonal buying habits are changing, we are benefiting from the work we have done to weatherproof our assortment. Allowing us to deliver customers what they want when they want it, be it swim for summer recreation or outerwear to battle the elements. Following a colder spring and slower start for swim, saw momentum build throughout the summer. As weather improved and experienced a strong August, both swim and outerwear were top five items over Labor Day weekend, reflecting changing consumer tastes around weatherproofing. As a nod to Q3, our customers are responding positively to our on-trend assortments. Embroidered jeans are our best seller. Without the need to discount.

And we have expanded our popular barrel leg fit. We are pleased to report that these trends with our wear now full product are resonating strongly with customers laying the foundation for a strong third quarter in these important franchise categories. Turning to the performance of our various businesses. Beginning with our B2B business. Our B2B business continues to set us apart from competitors and had a terrific quarter with growth in both top and bottom line performance. On the commercial uniform side, our focus on building scale and contract duration with our enterprise customers yielded significant results. This year, we have won and are extending contracts with several large clients. Marking our highest growth in contract durations that we have recorded during the second quarter.

This side of the company’s spin has been 2014. As we dial up this strategy, we expect to add other household names in our key industry sectors over the coming year. Our school uniform business had another strong quarter. With revenue up high single digits fueled by new customer wins. We are continuing to win by leveraging the strength of our brand, our steadfast focus on quality, our market-leading embroidery and personalization capabilities, and our great customer service. Turning to our B2C business. Our asset-light licensing business remains a significant growth vehicle for the Lands’ End, Inc. brand. We saw particularly strong performance in the club stores with continued wins across men’s, women’s, and kids categories, and the expected introduction of footwear in that channel later in the year.

Lands’ End, Inc. remains a highly desirable brand, with licensed partners reporting new interest from a number of distributors in both the department store and club channels. Our third-party marketplace business delivered strong top-line results, driven by performance in Macy’s and a record-setting prime week on Amazon. Where we launched the Lands’ End Essentials line I mentioned earlier. This targeted approach continues to enhance discoverability, conversion, and drive brand equity across platforms. Marketplaces are relatively low lift, capital light, and fit neatly into our distributed commerce go-to-market model. Along with licensing, we see marketplaces as a compelling driver of continued growth in the reach and brand value of Lands’ End, Inc.

And importantly, it is where our consumer is shopping where we are meeting those new to our iconic brands. Our U.S. E-commerce business continues its evolutionary journey as the central hub of our commerce strategy. Representing the most fashion-forward collection-oriented manifestation of the brand, we continue to elevate the site. Creating a more immersive and experiential look and feel that best presents our collection to customers. Existing and new. Our recent momentum put a strong start to the third quarter. Is positioning Lands’ End, Inc. as a trusted, high-quality brand with broad consumer appeal especially among the all-important thirty-five to fifty-year-old demographic. The website in both mobile and desktop showcases ever greater levels of personalization.

Our deployment of our new AI-driven recommendation and outfitting engine makes it easier for customers to mix and match products. Additionally, we are driving more segmented and personalized campaigns leveraging our SMS and email platforms while expanding communications with AI agents a rapidly evolving search sector. Social commerce, is the final part of our distributed commerce platform. While we do not break out this segment and include it within our U.S. E-commerce results, had a wonderful quarter. With our Instagram followers growing by over 100% since last year. Our total social traffic increased nearly 19% versus last year, and nearly 60% in June and July versus last year. Reaching a new and younger customer we created bespoke campaigns.

For example, our toad crawl summer campaign, offering our iconic pocket tote with personalization options and a series of pop-up shops, in popular summer destinations we continue to attract new customers at a rapid clip and the Tote remains our number one new to brand acquisition product. Europe showed improvement during the second quarter. With revenue declines beginning to moderate as we became more effective sellers and positioned the brand to build on the distributed commerce success that we are seeing in The U.S. Specifically, we launched the French language website with limited discounting and a more evolved look and feel. In addition, we began to elevate the look and feel of the German and UK sites collaborating with more premium partners like Shearlux and Secret Escapes.

For fall holiday, we plan to launch several designer collaborations as part of that reposition. As with The U.S, we look to asset-light low lift launches to broaden our reach, including opening on Amazon, Devon, and NeXT, with results significantly ahead of expectations. Europe will continue to be a test bed for us. And while each market has its own dynamics, we are committed to building a global brand and view the halo that these markets can provide Lands’ End, Inc. as invaluable. I will now turn it over to Bernie to discuss our second quarter performance in more detail.

Bernie McCracken: Thank you, Andrew. For the second quarter, total revenue performance was $294 million, a decrease of 7% compared to the second quarter last year and GMV was approximately flat year over year. Licensing and our presence across our third-party marketplace partners continue to help the business diversify. And reduce risk from any one business unit product or partner. Our U.S. E-commerce business saw sales decrease 11% compared to 2024. The decrease was largely driven by the slow start to the swim season. And as Andrew discussed, we saw strong swim results through Labor Day which we have incorporated into our third-quarter forecast. Our third-party marketplace business grew approximately 14% with year-over-year growth across our marketplace.

We are very pleased with our performance in Macy’s and Amazon and we believe improved performance at Kohl’s has positioned the marketplace business well for the back half of the year. Sales from Lands’ End Outfitters increased 5% from 2024. Sales from our school uniform channel increased high single digits. Driven by our acquisition of new school accounts. Revenues from the business uniform channel were up year over year driven by our enterprise accounts. Sales in Europe decreased 15% year over year. Primarily due to supply chain challenges on key seasonal products and broader macroeconomic pressures. However, we are encouraged by the early progress from adding additional channels and expect this business to improve in the back half of the year.

Revenue from our licensing business grew 19% year over year, reflecting the continued momentum of our licensing program. This growth was fueled by increased brand visibility from existing licensees, further expanding our reach and impact. Gross profit decreased by 6% compared to last year. Gross margin in the second quarter was 49%. Approximately 90 basis point improvement from 2024. The margin improvement was driven by continued strength in full price selling across key categories expansion of our licensing business. SG&A expenses decreased by $6 million year over year. As a percentage of net revenue, SG&A increased 130 basis points primarily driven by deleverage from lower revenues. For the second quarter, we had an adjusted net loss of $1.9 million or $0.06 per share.

We delivered adjusted EBITDA of $14 million in the second quarter. Representing a year-over-year decrease of 18%. The decrease was driven by initial tariff headwinds, Europe e-commerce performance, and the slow start to the swim season. Partially offset by marketplaces, licensing outfitters. Moving to our balance sheet. Inventories at the end of the second quarter were $302 million, down 3% compared to last year. Reflecting disciplined inventory management and proactive measures to mitigate tariff impacts. In terms of our debt, at the end of the second quarter, our term loan balance was $241 million and our ABL had $35 million of borrowings outstanding. Total long-term debt was flat to last year. During the second quarter, we repurchased $2 million of shares under our $25 million share repurchase authorization announced in March.

Bringing the balance of the remaining authorization to $9 million as of the end of the quarter. Now moving to guidance. Our guidance includes the impact of tariffs at the current implemented rates, We are implementing mitigation measures to effectively manage tariff headwinds at current levels for the remainder of fiscal 2025. For the third quarter, we expect net revenue to be between $320 million to $350 million while GMV is expected to be mid to high single-digit growth. Adjusted net income of $3 million to $7 million and adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.10 to $0.02 and our adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $24 million to $28 million. Turning to full year. We now expect net revenue to be between $1.33 billion to $1.4 billion while GMV is expected to be low to mid single-digit growth.

Adjusted net income of $19 million to $27 million and adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.62 to $0.88 and our adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $98 million to $107 million. Our guidance for the full year incorporates

Operator: $25 million in capital expenditures. With that, I will turn the call back over to Andrew.

Andrew McLean: Thanks, Bernie. I want to thank Lands’ End, Inc.’s employees for their hard work and dedication during the quarter. With their support, we have created a truly distributed commerce retailer, with the reach to deliver for customers existing and new across channels, geographies, and categories. Looking ahead to the third quarter, we are seeing broad strength across all categories in our U.S. Business, building on our positive momentum and the trends we saw develop over the course of the second quarter. Our sales and margin over Labor Day weekend was the best we have had in the last decade. Bringing significant use to file sign up. As I mentioned earlier, this reflects the intentional work we have done to weatherproof our business and ensure our customers have what they want when they want it.

It also underscores the strength of our strategy to be promotional around holidays while maintaining full price selling. In between. Finally, the Board’s previously announced process to explore strategic alternatives remains ongoing. We will not be commenting further on it at this time. And we will provide an update once appropriate. With that, we look forward to your questions.

Operator: We will go first this afternoon to Dana Telsey of The Telsey Group.

Dana Telsey: Hi, good afternoon everyone and nice to hear about the progress. Andrew, the acceleration in momentum on the top line that you are talking about frankly, into the third quarter now, What are you seeing by product category? How much of it is lower promotions? And given the tariff environment, have you taken price? And then also, it sounds like the Lands’ End Essentials is a new opportunity. What are you seeing that is driving the business? How is the margin and price points relative to the rest of the mix? Thank you.

Andrew McLean: Hey, thanks, Dana. It is nice to hear from you. Really been progressing the business towards a distributed commerce model over the last twelve months. In fact, we saw this with our customers’ shopping habits as we sort of like moved from our very traditional customer, our resolver to our revolver. And I know I have talked

Operator: about that on previous calls. We started to

Andrew McLean: actually look at where that customer was shopping. And quite a lot of the work we did around working with AI agents. So took it down this path where we started to see these customer habits are changing, customers are migrating to different channels. There are new customers to tap into. And so it became clear to us that we had opportunities that lay beyond just a traditional brand site. The brand site will always be the to us. It is going to be the most fashion-forward version of the brand. It is going to be the most complete version. But we know that those customers are shopping. And we see within our

Operator: top marketplaces the distributed model, We see that there is an Amazon customer who wants a price point. And by really focusing in on a couple of handfuls of SKUs, we put ourselves in a position that we can really lean in, put the marketing behind those SKUs and reach them at price points that matter. And we think we can build a significant business. Our Q3 numbers have been absolutely astonishing actually. As we have lent further into this. And in fact, what we are seeing is a tremendous amount of those customers then migrate to see the full assortment on landsend.com. So we think that there is a flywheel effect that is going to be happening and that will continue. To accelerate and spin the business forward as we see that momentum continue.

Operator: I would just note that at the top end of that, we have Macy’s.

Andrew McLean: And Nordstrom where we sell some of the highest price points that we have. In the company and our AOVs have been somewhat astonishing. We see that as we are reaching the top of our merchandise pyramid. So again, we are putting the product we see a certain customer and we are matching that product to the customer all the better. And now we are able to manage promotions differently against each of those. In fact, one thing I want to call out, I think the team has done a great job on this is we built an AI engine that

Operator: basically creates product display pages, PVPs, and it will build language that is appropriate to each page. So

Andrew McLean: if you see a product that is on landsend.com, how the page materializes the time you get to Amazon, it will read differently. It will read more appropriate

Operator: to the Amazon bots and AI search tools, and it will read differently

Andrew McLean: and probably more elevated in all candor to a Nordstrom’s customer. So we are starting we are being much more thoughtful about how we address each of these

Operator: segments. In terms of the category conversation that is out there,

Andrew McLean: we have seen strength across all categories. And it was

Operator: the second quarter was definitely there was momentum all the way through it. Slower May with SWIM, which is really important to us. One-third of the business in May. What we saw was that

Andrew McLean: build in June, it built in July. And then interestingly, it built into August. And what I am starting to see is that the strategy that designers and merchants put in place around weatherproofing has been incredible for us. Because we are able to sell to the customer when they want it, not just where they want it. And so it was

Operator: something I had not seen in the company’s history before.

Andrew McLean: Over Labor Day weekend, where we had both swim and outerwear as

Operator: top five categories, which was new to us

Andrew McLean: and that was relatively full price selling. Because, again, we are trying to meet more of the discounting in different channels. Like having the customer on landsend.com with something more premium. We were able to manage markdown around that.

Operator: You asked me about

Andrew McLean: tariffs and are we handing anything on to the customer. I am going to be honest, yes, we are. As little as we possibly can, we look at our tariff and the view we took for 2025, which is in the guidance and into 2026 is that we are making a number of changes. We have made a number of changes in our sourcing network.

Operator: They have been very successful for us, and they have given us the nimbleness to move in and out of markets. As tariffs come. And we have also worked with our vendors and narrowed the number of vendors. And that has given us the ability to share some of the

Andrew McLean: burden with them. So we think about them for half of the tariff rise that we are seeing. Of the remainder, we are

Operator: splitting that fairly evenly between internal changes that we are making as we

Andrew McLean: get after below margin and then the rest of it is going through to what I would say is a relatively small increase to the customer. And we will endeavor to make that the smallest number it can be. But I do not want to sugarcoat it that we can absorb the whole thing. So I think I got everything in there. I am happy to go back to it if you have got more.

Operator: David, the only thing I would add on product categories would be that you know, one of the exciting things for us is as people are shifting their timing on purchases whilst we noted that ‘2, but it has actually been a nice tailwind to start Q3 as that swim kicks in. And when Andrew was talking about essentials, it is a smaller part of our business, but it has been really a big lift in its early days in both Amazon and the other places that we are putting in.

Dana Telsey: Thank you.

Andrew McLean: Thank you. We go next now to Eric Beder of SCC Research.

Eric Beder: Good afternoon.

Operator: Right. Hey, Eric. Could you talk a little bit about the flow of licensing here? I know that the first half had kind of a little bit of puts and takes because you were shifting. Licensing to from all categories you previously had into a licensing category. What are we going to see in the back half in terms of potentially now becoming expanding the categories beyond what you have done before with the licensing mechanism?

Andrew McLean: Hey, Eric. I am going to take the I am going to take the front half, and then I will let Bernie take the back half. We are up 36% on our licensing revenues, then a number you will see in the Q, but I really wanted to call that out. We continue to look at how we will drive the business forward in the back half with that. And in the back half, we think that there is upside to it because there are new licenses. And then on top of that, we get into the holiday season. And it is like we were really still sort of in our infancy last year on this. So we see tremendous upside opportunity. And actually, the sky is the limit in terms of the licenses we can go after. We have been a little slower for reasons. For some reasons this year. And I think as we get into the future, we see opportunity to accelerate those number of licenses.

Operator: Yes. And what I would add to that, we started the year you know, the the licensees started the business in early last year, there is a ramp up for those. So what we are starting to see as we hit the back half of this year is them accelerating. Our current licensees are accelerating to their full potential. And we will get that benefit in the back half of this year while we also have the new licensees starting to build their program, and then we will get the benefit next year of them building up to full potential. One of the leverage points that I have

Andrew McLean: found really interesting is as we sort of like go down this path and I have done this before in my career, which is to pull the licensees to get the licenses together. And go to a big customer, a big department store customer and really have them all present as a complete house of Lands’ End, Inc. And in doing that, it is very powerful to have that leverage. And as we negotiate into that, we see that as an amplification of licenses that was not originally anticipated and what we how we were laying out the business model, but it is now it became very obvious as we went further into this. So we see upside here.

Operator: Great. When you look in outerwear, last year, you shifted the continued to shift the outerwear to more wear now and thinner and kind of not as heavy product. And that was a big success. What should we be thinking about how you are going to handle outerwear this year? Obviously, it seems like it started out pretty well in Labor Day.

Andrew McLean: Eric, I was in product meetings all morning, and you should see like the outerwear that is to come. It was it is absolutely darling. And actually, in as much as in as much as I want to give you the full answer, and I will, I mean, I would point you to some of the new products that we have out there around squall in particular. And that we will send you the the PDP of the rain jacket and it is it is you will see a couple of things. You will see

Operator: new product.

Andrew McLean: New innovation and you will see new PDPs that really speak to how the customer wants to shop and the PDP almost in its own way acts as a landing page for the brand. So there is incredible use of imagery. There is incredible use of storyline in there. And actually, we lean heavily into customer reviews. And part of why I was loving the product so much this morning is the team was showing me early reviews on it.

Operator: Which

Andrew McLean: are many of them are five star and we see it from our resolver and our revolver customer and we know when

Operator: both of those

Andrew McLean: are loving the product that it is going to be a home run. So I do not think you are necessarily going to see new new franchises being added, but I think you will see those franchises being ened. I am not going to give you the whole story. You are going to have to wait to see some of it because we have got some astonishing product coming up.

Operator: Great. Last question. So when you look at the catalogs, there has been an increasing focus on events and lifestyle and driving kind of multiple purchases for that. When you look at your customer base, that thirty-five to fifty-year-old customer is your focus. How has been their response to that versus kind of the prior core? And are you seeing those customers continue to increase

Andrew McLean: on the price in terms of percentage of buying all pieces? Thank you.

Operator: Yes. We continue to see the evolve. Think thirty-five to fifty-year-old new to file customer is is coming to the brand and they are

Andrew McLean: buying across product categories. And buy a bigger basket. And it has been an incredibly successful strategy for us to lean into that versus the more traditional Resolver customer who tends to come back and buy something that is worn out or to stick with the one in one particular category. They just may be a swim customer and that is who they are going to be.

Operator: We are starting to see behavior of new cohorts, resolvers with

Andrew McLean: evolver tendencies. And so we are starting to break down that barrier. What we have done with catalogs, and in particular, as we came into Q3,

Operator: we were extremely thoughtful about this. We really leaned in with the

Andrew McLean: our data scientists and began to

Operator: be thoughtful about the particular kind of catalog that goes to

Andrew McLean: a 5x shopper, which is effectively a resolver for us at this point. Versus a customer we are trying to encourage to a second purchase because we know recency is very important to us. And actually, we began to segment the file more to chase that after lapsed customers. We know there is tremendous amount of value in there. And we have begun actually with the catalog to prospect to gain that for a number of years. Of not using the catalog to prospect and relying probably a little too much on performance marketing because I think performance marketing is under pressure in any case from AI agents. But I think it has a tendency to be more transactional. Versus emotional. And we find that we can handle transactional better on, say, Amazon. That is a better place to be with that kind of with that kind of customer purchase decision. So for us, the catalog is

Operator: I think it is fair to say we have taken the catalog on the offensive

Andrew McLean: this quarter, and I think you are going to see more and more of that from us. And actually, you just might get different catalogs sent to you. And I will give you a very good example.

Operator: Our traditional customer, that resolver,

Andrew McLean: she likes to see red lines. What do I mean by that? She wants to see a was his pricing. Our revolver does not want to see that. So you might find that you get a different catalog depending on how we have evaluated you as a customer. And we will continue to lean into this. The data science behind this is fascinating. And hopefully, we can spend some time walking you through it when you visit next.

Operator: Okay. Good. Look forward to it. Thank you.

Andrew McLean: Thank you. We will go next now to Steve Silver of Argus Research.

Operator: Thanks, operator, and thanks for taking my questions. It is great to hear the progress in the outfitters business. It sounds like there might be some new opportunities to be announced over the course of the rest of the year. Just curious as to your view of this state of the pipeline in outfitters broadly. And then maybe if you can just put in some context how many prospects may be in in more advanced stages of conversation at any point in time.

Andrew McLean: Yeah. Thanks. How is it going, Steve? It is nice to hear from you as well.

Operator: So we break it up into we break out figures out into several buckets. I am just going to start school. We are very deliberately targeting growth in school.

Andrew McLean: We have found that the product that we bring to market is OCATEC certified and that means that there is absolutely nothing bad in it. And we find it to be very competitively priced. And if something none of our competitors can do. So we have a competitive advantage that we can lean in and go after progressively more schools from large to small. And so we have really tasked our team to grow that business. And I would say not just because one of our competitors fell out last year, but because of our own doubling down and having more having a better go to market strategy, where we see opportunities to pick those schools. And I tend to think about

Operator: adding schools in

Andrew McLean: anywhere from about $5 million to $3 million buckets. Given the size of those. So opportunity in there with multiple customers. I think when it gets into the commercial uniforms business, I am going to split it into just to simplify over here all night. I think there is the smaller customers. We have completely rebuilt our experience for smaller customers. And it is paying starting to pay dividends for us. The site which in my opinion had become extremely sort of B2C focused and was more cat category driven is now about the emphasis of differentiation. Of what we can bring to your business. And I think the other part is we have done we changed our IT philosophy to be more about sprints rather than sort of like longer projects, and we are delivering continual upgrades. And that is allowing us to be much more focused on getting turnaround for the customer in there. I would say that it does not stop there because what we tend to find is many

Operator: big companies who may well become the second group, which is our enterprise accounts tend to start off by shopping as small. And so we can use that to prospect quite heavily. In terms of the enterprise accounts,

Andrew McLean: I have got so much good news in there, but I am really not in the position to share it. Obviously, the last call, we talked about winning Delta back and we are extremely proud about that. Our team just got back from Italy where they had been with Delta assessing uniforms for the future. And it is like it is there is a lot of goodness to come from that. I would say that the of bringing a a delta back is not lost on other airlines out there. I am going to leave it at that. And in financial services, we continue to dominate. The big play for us

Operator: is going to be now building adjacent categories. And one of the adjacent categories we really like is in the healthcare industry. And I think you will see us start to add that category more consistently and carefully. I just want to

Andrew McLean: like blanket everyone everywhere Lands’ End, Inc. does better when it focuses on something and decides to win. And that is how we work as a team.

Operator: That is helpful. Thank you so much. And one last one, if I may. You cited some progress in Europe with the narrowing of the declines there. Also the implementation of new websites in some key European markets. I am curious if you could put some context around, the expectations for completing the turnaround of the European business? And moving just towards something more of a contribution to the overall business? Yes, it is a great question.

Andrew McLean: Usually, I am in Europe testing out ideas.

Operator: Good, bad or indifferent. One idea that we are taking from

Andrew McLean: The U.S. That is really important to us is this distributed commerce model. So

Operator: just so we are on the same page and it really allows the customer to purchase directly from where they are browsing. So we are meeting customers

Andrew McLean: where they are rather than waiting for them to come to the brand site. So that might be social media, it might be from online articles. It might be from smart devices, and it could be from marketplaces. And so we are working our way into social media. We are working our way into marketplaces. And I think I want to put emphasis on the marketplaces because Europe’s retail has always been more marketplace driven. Than in North America. And that is an area of growth for us. So we opened NeXT. We opened Devenham’s. We opened Amazon. And we have seen terrific

Operator: starts to each of those. And I think you will see us continue to grow those

Andrew McLean: and take from the strategy that has been already really successful. In The U.S. I think that is focusing around product that is appropriate. To that channel and product that is

Operator: that is priced appropriately and narrow assortments

Andrew McLean: that then encourage you to be curious about coming back to see other landsend.co.uk or the German site or actually the French site. So

Operator: that is the first part of it. In terms of the

Andrew McLean: In terms of the sort of brand sites themselves,

Operator: The UK is in pretty good shape. I think we have turned the corner there. We understood The UK consumer. And we have made inroads with them.

Andrew McLean: I think we have got the product assortment right. Right now, the area we are working on, and again, there is a meeting I was in earlier today, is to get focused around our German resolver. Customer. The Evolver customer we have got nailed. It is about now

Operator: working on the Resolver customer, and that arguably is going to come through catalog. So we are spending time working out

Andrew McLean: taking excuse the pun, a page out of what we have done in The U.S. And then working at how we can use the catalog as an effective tool to engage with that resolver German customer and then that will bring us fully back. To where the brand is contributing from Europe. Because again, I am absolutely committed to it because the halo that we will get from Europe is key. And the last point I will make on this

Operator: particularly to reach our revolver customers, watch for a couple of really powerful collabs. Coming. The collab model that we have had

Andrew McLean: from the really, this is the success of the tote bag in The U.S. Has created a halo for the brand everywhere. We are that on the road

Operator: and we are now going to be doing that in Europe. And again, I would love to

Andrew McLean: would love to share who those co labs are for. But I think my team in Europe would be really, really upset with me. So I am going to keep I am going stay quiet. And watch this space.

Steve Silver: Great. Thank you so much for the color and best of luck in the second half.

Andrew McLean: Thank you. Take care. Thank you. And gentlemen, that was our final question for today. So that will bring us to the conclusion of today’s Lands’ End, Inc. earnings conference call. Again, everyone, we would like to thank you all so much for joining us this afternoon and wish you all a great remainder of your day. Goodbye.
