Perry Ellis Records Beat on Lower Profits

The Miami-based firm reported that it would launch its spring 2013 Perry Ellis by Duckie Brown collection exclusively with New York-based Scoop as the brand continued to gain visibility from its Very Perry marketing campaign.

Oscar Feldenkreis, president and chief operating officer, said the third quarter was marked by “continued positive momentum in our golf and direct-to-consumer platforms, substantial progress on our initiatives to improve our Perry Ellis and Rafaella collection businesses and the disciplined management of expenses and continued strong cash flow.”
