Our highly profitable e-commerce business represented more than 50% of our revenues in 2014, a significant milestone for Williams-Sonoma, Inc., as we capitalize on our position at the intersection of retail and technology. We are very pleased with our fourth quarter results despite the effects of the west coast port disruption.

Notes:

(1) Impact of Unusual Business Events – During Q4 14, we received our share of the VISA/MasterCard antitrust litigation settlement. This settlement (a benefit) totaled approximately $0.05 and $0.04 per diluted share in Q4 14 and FY 14, respectively, and is recorded in SG&A expenses within the unallocated segment.
(2) Impact of Unusual Business Events – During Q1 13 and FY 13, we incurred charges of approximately $0.02 per diluted share associated with the previously announced retirement of the former President of the Williams-Sonoma brand. These charges were recorded within the unallocated segment.
(3)

SEC Regulation G – Non-GAAP Information – These tables include non-GAAP operating income, operating margin and diluted EPS. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information for investors regarding the performance of our business and facilitate a meaningful evaluation of our quarterly and FY 14 actual results on a comparable basis with prior periods. Our management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in order to have comparable financial results to analyze changes in our underlying business from quarter to quarter. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.
