ITEM 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition
On March 30, 2006, Casual Male Retail Group, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release revising its previously announced results of operations for the fourth quarter and fiscal year 2005. The revised press release was issued to change the Company’s fourth quarter of fiscal 2005 weighted average shares outstanding, on a dilutive basis, to include the impact of the Company’s convertible securities due to their dilutive impact on the fourth quarter. Net income for the fourth quarter of 2005 was not impacted by this change. For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005, the weighted average shares outstanding were originally reported at 35.8 million with a corresponding diluted earnings of $0.38 per share. The adjusted weighted average shares outstanding are 45.1 million with a corresponding diluted earnings for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005 of $0.33 per share. Diluted earnings per share for fiscal 2005 and basic earnings per share for both the fourth quarter and fiscal year 2005 were not affected by this revision.
A copy of the revised press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
The press release contains certain non-GAAP measures which the Company believes is important for investors to help gain a better understanding of the Company. The release includes a reconciliation of such non-GAAP measures.

REPORTS SIGNIFICANTLY IMPROVED RESULTS FOR
FOURTH QUARTER AND FISCAL 2005 – REVISED WEIGHTED AVERAGE SHARES
The Company has revised its press release issued earlier today to change its fourth quarter of fiscal 2005 weighted average shares outstanding, on a dilutive basis, to include the impact of the Company’s convertible securities due to their dilutive impact on the fourth quarter. Net income was not impacted by this change. For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005, the weighted average shares outstanding were originally reported at 35.8 million with a corresponding dilutive earnings of $0.38 per share. The adjusted weighted average shares are 44.7 million with a corresponding earnings for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005 of $0.33 per diluted share. Diluted earnings per share for fiscal 2005 and basic earnings per share for both the fourth quarter and fiscal year 2005 were not affected by this revision.
CANTON, MA (March 30, 2006) — Casual Male Retail Group, Inc. (NASDAQ/NMS: “CMRG”), retail brand operator of Casual Male Big & Tall, Casual Male XL and Rochester Big & Tall, announced its operating results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended January 28, 2006 (“fiscal 2005”).
For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005, net income was $13.5 million, or $0.33 per diluted share, compared to net income of $7.9 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004. Results for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005 include a net tax benefit of $2.8 million primarily related to the reversal of a portion of the Company’s deferred tax valuation allowance. In addition, the results for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005 include a net charge of $1.0 million associated with the Company’s $1.2 million expense for the prepayment of its mortgage note payable partially offset by a gain from the buyback of $5.3 million of its convertible notes. Assuming a normalized tax rate of 37.5% and without regard to these special items, earnings per share for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005 was $0.18 per diluted share versus $0.14 per diluted share for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004.
For fiscal 2005, the Company reported net income of $10.8 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, compared to a net income of $1.5 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, in fiscal 2004. Assuming a normalized tax rate of 37.5% and without regard to the special items noted above, earnings per share for the fiscal year 2005 was $0.16 per diluted share compared to $0.03 per diluted share for fiscal year 2004.
Dennis Hernreich, Executive Vice President, COO and CFO, stated, “The fourth quarter of fiscal 2005 was our most successful quarter since the acquisition of Casual Male in 2002. We believe our comparable sales increase of 7.9% for the fourth quarter resulted from the culmination of a number of key initiatives that we started over two years ago. Just as important, the Company generated a 340 basis point improvement in gross margin during the fourth quarter which drove a sustainable operating margin improvement for the year of 200 basis points.” Mr. Hernreich added, “As a result of our growing profitability, the Company’s earnings for fiscal 2005 benefited from approximately $0.08 per diluted share as we were able to recognize a portion of the Company’s previously reserved tax assets, which had been previously written off due to prior year losses.”
Investors are invited to listen to a broadcast of the Company’s conference call to discuss its fiscal 2005 earnings results. The conference call will broadcast live today on Thursday, March 30, 2006 at 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time at www.casualmale.com/investor. The call will be archived online within one hour after its completion. Participating in the call will be David Levin, President and Chief Executive Officer, and Dennis Hernreich, Executive Vice President, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer.
During the conference call, the Company may discuss and answer questions concerning business and financial developments and trends. The Company’s responses to questions, as well as other matters discussed during the conference call, may contain or constitute information that has not been disclosed previously.
In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), our above discussion refers to a normalized tax rate, which is a non-GAAP measure. Normalized tax basis reflects a 37.5% effective tax rate on pre-tax income (loss). The Company believes that the inclusion of this non-GAAP measure helps investors to gain a better understanding of the Company’s performance, especially when comparing such results to previous periods or forecasts. However, this non-GAAP financial measure included in this press release is not meant to be considered superior to or as a substitute for results of operations prepared in accordance with GAAP. The following table shows the reconciliation of net income for the fourth quarter and fiscal year of 2005 of $0.18 and $0.16 per diluted share, respectively, as compared to net income for the fourth quarter and fiscal year of 2004 of $0.14 and $0.03 per diluted share, respectively, on a GAAP basis affected for the adjustment for normalized taxes and without the net tax benefit of $2.8 million, primarily related to the reversal of the Company’s valuation allowance, and the $1.0 million in net charges incurred in connection with the retirement of the Company’s long-term debt.
