Nick Robertson, CEO, commented:

 

"I am pleased to report our strong sales momentum continued through the first quarter. Our retail sales are up 54% over the period, despite the impact of an extra week of sale activity in the comparable period last year.

 

"UK sales continue to perform strongly, up 32% and international sales, which now represent 37% of the total, remain robust at 111%.

 

"It is too early in the financial year to assume that these levels of sales will continue for the remaining three quarters; however we remain confident that this year will be another year of excellent progress."
