Oxford Industries Issues Correction to Statement
ATLANTA, GA. — Oxford Industries, Inc. (NYSE:OXM) issues the following correction to its Third Quarter Fiscal 2007 earnings release issued earlier today. In its discussion regarding fourth quarter fiscal 2007, the Company incorrectly stated that it is expecting year-over-year improvement in sales and operating income for the Menswear Group. This incorrect statement was also made by the Company during its conference call following the earnings release. The Company should have stated that it is expecting year-over-year improvement in operating income for the Menswear Group, but not in net sales for the Group.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Various statements in this press release, in future filings by us with the Securities and Exchange Commission and in oral statements made by or with the approval of our management include forward-looking statements about future events. Generally, the words “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “project,” “will” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, which generally are not historical in nature. We intend for all such forward-looking statements contained herein, the entire contents of our web site, and all subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf, to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and the provisions of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (which Sections were adopted as part of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995). Important assumptions relating to these forward-looking statements include, among others, assumptions regarding demand for our products, expected pricing levels, raw material costs, the timing and cost of planned capital expenditures, expected outcomes of pending litigation and regulatory actions, competitive conditions, general economic conditions and expected synergies in connection with acquisitions and joint ventures. Forward-looking statements reflect our current expectations, based on currently available information, and are not guarantees of performance. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, these expectations could prove inaccurate as such statements involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our ability to control or predict. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, estimated or projected. You are encouraged to review the information in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 2, 2006 under the heading “Risk Factors” (and those described from time to time in our future reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission), which contains additional important factors that may cause our actual results to differ materially from those projected in any forward-looking statements. We disclaim any intention, obligation or duty to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.
