The sales growth reported by the company for both the fourth quarter and full year of 2023 preceded the launch of four new product lines, Nautica Powered by Lucyd, Eddie Bauer Powered by Lucyd, Reebok Powered by Lucyd, and the Lucyd Armor smart safety glasses line, all of which are expected to present additional revenue-generating opportunities in 2024.
