on Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1 and Exhibit 99.2, contains forward-looking statements made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions
of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including but not limited to statements relating to the Company&rsquo;s
forecasts regarding comparable retail sales and adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share. Forward-looking statements typically
are identified by use of terms such as &ldquo;may,&rdquo; &ldquo;will,&rdquo; &ldquo;should,&rdquo; &ldquo;plan,&rdquo; &ldquo;project,&rdquo;
&ldquo;expect,&rdquo; &ldquo;anticipate,&rdquo; &ldquo;estimate&rdquo; and similar words, although some forward-looking statements
are expressed differently.</I> <I>These forward-looking statements are based upon the Company's current expectations and assumptions
and are subject to various risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results and performance to differ materially. Some of
these risks and uncertainties are described in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including in
the &ldquo;Risk Factors&rdquo; section of its annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2015. Included among
the risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results and performance to differ materially are the risk that the Company
will be unsuccessful in gauging fashion trends and changing consumer preferences, the risks resulting from the highly competitive
nature of the Company&rsquo;s business and its dependence on consumer spending patterns, which may be affected by the weakness
in the economy that continues to affect the Company&rsquo;s target customer, the risk that the Company&rsquo;s strategic initiatives
to increase sales and margin are delayed or do not result in anticipated improvements, the risk that the cost of raw materials
or energy prices will increase beyond current expectations or that the Company is unable to offset cost increases through value
engineering or price increases, and the uncertainty of weather patterns. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these
forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they were made. The Company undertakes no obligation to release publicly
any revisions to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or
to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. The inclusion of any statement in this release does not constitute an admission
by the Company or any other person that the events or circumstances described in such statement are material.</I></P>

Place, Inc. (Nasdaq: PLCE),</B> the largest pure-play children&rsquo;s specialty apparel retailer in North America, today announced
expected financial results for the thirteen weeks ended May 2, 2015.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Jane Elfers, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented,
&ldquo;Our customers responded very positively to our Spring product offering. Our business picked up meaningfully in the second
half of the quarter driving positive comparable retail sales and a robust gross margin. As a result, we expect our first quarter
adjusted EPS to be in the range of $0.81 to $0.83, versus our guidance range of $0.60 to $0.65. This compares to adjusted EPS of
$0.68 in the first quarter of 2014. Our inventories are in excellent shape &ndash; down approximately 7% at quarter-end compared
to last year. We successfully navigated the recent year-long labor disruption at the West Coast ports without incurring any additional
costs and ensuring 100% on-time delivery of merchandise.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Elfers continued: &ldquo;We are making significant progress
on our systems transformation. The initial insights from the implementation of our assortment planning tool enabled us to significantly
improve our inventory management capabilities by adding enhanced data driven analytical rigor to our internal processes. This
resulted in improved inventory metrics and significantly improved gross margin in the first quarter. Further, our state of the
art inventory allocation and replenishment tool is on track to go live for Back to School 2015. Our digital initiatives continue
to gain traction and are focused on driving improvements in customer acquisition, retention and engagement.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&ldquo;We continue to make the necessary investments in technology
with the goal of accelerating our channel expansion through our international, wholesale and ecommerce channels. We believe that
as we further develop our relationships with our international and wholesale partners and realize these technology enhancements,
we will accelerate growth in these channels. In addition, our fleet optimization efforts remain on track.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Elfers concluded: &ldquo;Our ongoing business transformation
is generating strong momentum across the board, and we expect to continue to drive substantial, sustainable improvements in 2015
and over the long term.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0"><B>&nbsp;</B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The Company&rsquo;s projected first quarter results reflect
significant progress across multiple strategic initiatives.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Comparable retail sales increased 0.7% during the quarter despite
adverse weather in many parts of the country. This represents The Children&rsquo;s Place&rsquo;s fourth consecutive quarter of
positive comps and further demonstrates the continuing momentum in our business. The Company expects total sales to be approximately
$405 million in the quarter. The Company expects adjusted gross margin to increase by 130 to 150 basis points compared to last
year, significantly above the previously announced guidance range of down 20 to up 10 basis points. These estimated results reflect
merchandise margin leverage and a higher AUR compared to last year, driven by strong product acceptance and well-managed inventories.
The Company expects adjusted SG&amp;A expense to be flat, deleveraging 20 to 40 basis points compared to last year. This would
result in an expected increase in adjusted operating margin of approximately 100 to 110 basis points compared to last year.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The Company is working to utilize the significant cash balances
it has outside of the US while enhancing vendor management. In the first quarter, the Company began making vendor payments deploying
our cash in Asia, improving U.S. and Canada cash flow and reducing the outstanding debt balance on our revolver.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0"><B><U>Capital Return Program Update</U></B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The Company increased the pace of its share repurchase program
in the first quarter, returning approximately $43 million to shareholders through the repurchase of 647,700 shares and its quarterly
dividend payment. As also announced today, the Company&rsquo;s Board of Directors declared another quarterly dividend of $0.15
per share, payable on July 9, 2015 to shareholders of record at the close of business on June 18, 2015. These programs reflect
the Company&rsquo;s continued confidence in its growth strategy and its ongoing commitment to return excess capital to shareholders.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The Children&rsquo;s Place has approximately $100 million remaining
on its January 2015 share buyback authorization. This provides the Company with the flexibility to continue to return capital to
shareholders at a significant rate. Since 2009, the Company has returned over a half billion dollars to investors through share
repurchases and dividends.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">For fiscal 2015, the Company now expects adjusted net income
per diluted share will be in the range of $3.30 to $3.45, inclusive of a $0.15 negative impact from foreign exchange. This compares
to adjusted net income per diluted share of $3.05 in fiscal 2014. This guidance assumes an increase in comparable retail sales
for the year of approximately 1%.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The Company is providing initial guidance for the second quarter
of 2015, and expects adjusted net loss per diluted share between ($0.36) and ($0.32), inclusive of an estimated $0.02 negative
impact from foreign exchange. This compares to adjusted net loss per diluted share of ($0.37) in the second quarter of 2014. This
guidance assumes an increase in comparable retail sales of approximately 1%.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0"><B>&nbsp;</B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Because the Company has not completed its quarter-end fiscal
close, the results presented in this press release are estimated and preliminary, and, therefore, may change. These preliminary
results are unaudited. Adjusted net income, adjusted gross profit, adjusted SG&amp;A, and adjusted operating income are non-GAAP
measures that exclude certain non-recurring items, including costs related to the proxy contest initiated by Macellum SPV II, LP,
Barington Companies Equity Partners, L.P., and each of their affiliates, restructuring costs, and store disposition and distribution
center exit costs, and are not intended to replace GAAP financial information. The Company believes the excluded items are not
indicative of the performance of its core business and that by providing this supplemental disclosure to investors it will facilitate
comparisons of its past and present performance.</P>
