Item 12. Regulation FD Disclosure.

On August 21, 2003, Genesco Inc. issued a press release regarding its results of operations for the quarter ended August 2, 2003 and its financial condition as of that date. Included in the press release is a calculation of earnings excluding loss on early retirement and other expenses associated with the Company’s issuance of Convertible Subordinated Debentures and its redemption of Convertible Subordinated Notes during the quarter. The Company believes this calculation is useful to investors because it allows them to consider the Company’s performance for the period on a basis they may consider more comparable to the same period last year, which did not reflect similar items. A copy of the press release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is not deemed to be filed for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or incorporated by reference in the Company’s filings under the Securities Act of 1933.
