NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. Business Operations

Boot Barn Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”), the parent holding company of the group of operating subsidiaries that conduct the Boot Barn business, was formed on November 17, 2011, and is incorporated in the State of Delaware. The equity of the Company consists of 100,000,000 authorized shares and 30,~~983~~984,~~037~~145 issued and 30,~~578~~506,~~522~~423 outstanding shares of common stock as of ~~June~~September 2827, 2025. The shares of common stock have voting rights of one vote per share.

The Company operates specialty retail stores and e-commerce websites that sell western and work boots and related apparel and accessories. The Company operates retail locations throughout the United States and sells its merchandise via the internet. The Company operated a total of ~~473~~489 stores in 49 states as of ~~June~~September 2827, 2025 and 459 stores in 49 states as of March 29, 2025. As of ~~June~~September 2827, 2025, all stores operate under the Boot Barn name.

Recent Developments

The Company’s business and opportunities for growth depend on consumer discretionary spending, and as such, the Company’s results are particularly sensitive to economic conditions and consumer confidence. Inflation, tariff and import/export regulations, and other challenges affecting the global economy could impact the Company’s operations and will depend on future developments, which are uncertain. These and other effects make it more challenging for management to estimate the future performance of the Company’s business, particularly over the near-to-medium term. For further discussion of the uncertainties and business risks affecting the Company, see Item 1A, Risk Factors, of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 29, 2025 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 15, 2025 (the “Fiscal 2025 10-K”).

Basis of Presentation

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as of ~~June~~September 2827, 2025 and March 29, 2025 and for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended ~~June~~September 2827, 2025 and ~~June~~September 2928, 2024 are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), and include the accounts of the Company and each of its subsidiaries, consisting of Boot Barn, Inc., RCC Western Stores, Inc., Baskins Acquisition Holdings, LLC, Sheplers, LLC and Sheplers Holding LLC (together with Sheplers, LLC, “Sheplers”). All intercompany accounts and transactions among the Company and its subsidiaries have been eliminated in consolidation. The vast majority of the Company’s identifiable assets are in the United States. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements have been condensed or omitted.

In the opinion of management, the interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are of a normal and recurring nature necessary to fairly present the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows in all material respects as of the dates and for the periods presented. The results of operations presented in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the full-year results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending March 28, 2026.

Fiscal Periods

The Company reports its results of operations and cash flows on a 52- or 53-week basis ending on the last Saturday of March unless April 1st is a Saturday, in which case the fiscal year ends on April 1st. In a 52-week year, each quarter includes thirteen weeks of operations; in a 53-week fiscal year, the first, second, and third quarters each include thirteen weeks of operations, and the fourth quarter includes fourteen weeks of operations. Both the current fiscal year ending on March 28, 2026 (“fiscal 2026”) and the fiscal year ended on March 29, 2025 (“fiscal 2025”) consist of 52 weeks.

Table of Contents

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Information regarding the Company’s significant accounting policies is contained in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies”, to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Fiscal 2025 10-K. Presented below and in the following notes is supplemental information that should be read in conjunction with those consolidated financial statements.

Comprehensive Income

The Company does not have any components of other comprehensive income recorded within its condensed consolidated financial statements and, therefore, does not separately present a statement of comprehensive income in its condensed consolidated financial statements.

Segment Reporting

GAAP has established guidance for reporting information about a company’s operating segments, including disclosures related to a company’s products and services, geographic areas and major customers. The Company monitors and reviews its segment reporting structure in accordance with authoritative guidance to determine whether any changes have occurred that would impact its reportable segments. The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is its Chief Executive Officer. The CODM regularly reviews operations and financial performance at a consolidated level, based on a single operating segment. The Company operates as one operating and one reportable segment. Further, the Company’s operations represent one reporting unit for the purpose of its goodwill impairment analysis.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Among the significant estimates affecting the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements are those relating to revenue recognition, lease accounting, inventories, goodwill, intangible and long-lived assets, stock-based compensation, and income taxes. Management regularly evaluates its estimates and assumptions based upon historical experience and various other factors that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. To the extent actual results differ from those estimates, the Company’s future results of operations may be affected.

Inventories

Inventories consist primarily of purchased merchandise and are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using the weighted-average cost method and includes the cost of merchandise and import-related costs, including freight, duty, and agent commissions. The Company assesses the recoverability of inventory through a periodic review of historical usage and present demand. When the inventory on hand exceeds the foreseeable demand, the value of inventory that, at the time of the review, is not expected to be sold at or above cost is written down to its estimated net realizable value.

Leases

Operating and finance lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of the fixed lease payments using the Company’s incremental borrowing rates for its population of leases. Related operating and finance lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets are recognized based on the initial present value of the fixed lease payments, reduced by cash payments received from landlords as lease incentives, plus any prepaid rent and other direct costs from executing the leases. Amortization of both operating and finance lease ROU assets is performed on a straight-line basis and recorded as part of rent expense in cost of goods sold and selling, general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statements of operations. The majority of total lease costs, related to the Company’s retail stores and

Table of Contents

distribution centers, is recorded as part of cost of goods sold, with the balance recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The interest expense amortization component of the finance lease liabilities is recorded within interest expense on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Leases with initial terms of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet; the Company recognizes lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Variable lease payments are recognized as lease expense as they are incurred.

Fair Value of Certain Financial Assets and Liabilities

The Company follows Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), which requires disclosure of the estimated fair value of certain assets and liabilities defined by the guidance as financial instruments. The Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and debt. ASC 820 defines the fair value of financial instruments as the price that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 establishes a three-level hierarchy for disclosure that is based on the extent and level of judgment used to estimate the fair value of assets and liabilities.

●

Level 1 uses unadjusted quoted prices that are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

●

Level 2 uses inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are either directly or indirectly observable through correlation with market data. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; and inputs to valuation models or other pricing methodologies that do not require significant judgment because the inputs used in the model, such as interest rates, incremental borrowing rates, and volatility, can be corroborated by readily observable market data.

●

Level 3 uses one or more significant inputs that are unobservable and supported by little or no market activity, and reflect the use of significant management judgment. Level 3 assets and liabilities include those whose fair value measurements are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar valuation techniques and significant management judgment or estimation. The Company’s Level 3 assets include certain acquired businesses and the evaluation of store impairment.

Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable are classified according to the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. As a result, the asset or liability could be classified as Level 2 or Level 3 even though there may be certain significant inputs that are readily observable. The Company believes that the recorded value of its financial instruments approximates their current fair values because of their nature and respective relatively short maturity dates or duration.

Although market quotes for the fair value of the outstanding debt arrangement discussed in Note 5, “Revolving Credit Facility”, is not readily available, the Company believes that its carrying value approximates fair value due to the variable interest rates, which are Level 2 inputs. There were no financial assets or liabilities requiring fair value measurements on a recurring basis as of ~~June~~September 2827, 2025.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recorded for store sales upon the purchase of merchandise by customers. Sales are recorded net of taxes collected from customers. Transfer of control takes place at the point at which the customer receives and pays for the merchandise at the register. E-commerce sales are recorded when control transfers to the customer, which generally occurs upon delivery of the product. Shipping and handling revenues are included in total net sales. Shipping costs incurred by the Company are included in cost of goods sold.

Revenue is recorded net of estimated and actual sales returns and deductions for coupon redemptions, estimated future award redemption, and other promotions. The sales returns reserve reflects an estimate of sales returns based on projected merchandise returns determined through the use of historical average return percentages. The total reserve for returns is recorded in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company accounts for the return asset and liability separately on a gross basis.

The Company maintains a customer loyalty program. Under the program, customers accumulate points based on purchase activity. For customers to maintain their active point balance, they must make a qualifying purchase of merchandise at least once in a 365-day period. Once a loyalty program member achieves a certain point level, the member earns awards that may be redeemed for credits on merchandise purchases. To redeem awards, the member must make a qualifying purchase of merchandise within 60 days of the date the award was granted. Unredeemed awards and accumulated partial points are accrued as unearned revenue until redemption or expiration and, upon redemption or expiration, as an adjustment to net sales using the relative standalone selling price method. The unearned revenue for this program is recorded in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets and was $6.7.0 million and $5.24 million as of ~~June~~September 2827, 2025 and ~~June~~September 2928, 2024, respectively. The following table provides a reconciliation of the activity related to the Company’s customer loyalty program:

Proceeds from the sale of gift cards are deferred until the customers use the cards to acquire merchandise. Gift cards, gift certificates, and store credits do not have expiration dates, and unredeemed gift cards, gift certificates, and store credits are subject to state escheatment laws. Amounts remaining after escheatment are recognized in net sales in the period escheatment occurs and the liability is considered to be extinguished. The Company defers recognition of a layaway sale and its related profit to the accounting period when the customer receives the layaway merchandise. Income from the redemption of gift cards, gift card breakage, and the sale of layaway merchandise is included in net sales. Deferred revenue is recorded in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. The following table provides a reconciliation of the activity related to the Company’s gift card program:

5. Revolving Credit Facility

The Company has a $250.0 million syndicated senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility (the “Wells Fargo Revolver”) for which Wells Fargo Bank, National Association is agent (“Wells Fargo”). Under the Wells Fargo Revolver, the sublimit for letters of credit is $10.0 million, and the maturity date is July 11, 2027.

Revolving credit loans under the Wells Fargo Revolver bear interest at per annum rates equal to, at the Company’s option, either (i) Adjusted Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (defined as “Term SOFR” for the applicable interest period plus a fixed credit spread adjustment of 0.10%) plus an applicable margin for Term SOFR loans, or (ii) the base rate plus an applicable margin for base rate loans. The base rate is calculated at the highest of (a) the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, (b) the Wells Fargo prime rate, and (c) Term SOFR for a one-month tenor in effect on such day plus 1.0%. The applicable margin is calculated based on a pricing grid that in each case is linked to quarterly average excess availability. For Term SOFR loans, the applicable margin ranges from 1.00% to 1.25%, and for base rate loans it ranges from 0.00% to 0.25%. The interest on base rate loans under the Wells Fargo Revolver is payable in quarterly installments ending on the maturity date and for Term SOFR loans is payable on the earlier of the last day of each interest period applicable thereto, or on each three-month interval of such interest period. The Company also pays a commitment fee of 0.25% per annum of the actual daily amount of the unutilized revolving loans.

The borrowing base of the Wells Fargo Revolver is calculated on a monthly basis and is based on the amount of eligible credit card receivables, commercial accounts, inventory, and available reserves.

The amounts outstanding under the Wells Fargo Revolver and letter of credit commitments as of ~~June~~September 2827, 2025 and March 29, 2025 were zero and $2.9 million, respectively. Total interest expense incurred on the Wells Fargo Revolver during the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended ~~June~~September 2827, 2025 was $0.2 million and $0.4 million, respectively, and the weighted average interest rate for the thirteen weeks ended ~~June~~September 2827, 2025 was 7.53%. Total interest expense incurred on the Wells Fargo Revolver during the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended ~~June~~September 2928, 2024 was $0.2 million and $0.4 million, respectively, and the weighted average interest rate for the thirteen weeks ended ~~June~~September 2928, 2024 was 8.5%.

All obligations under the Wells Fargo Revolver are unconditionally guaranteed by the Company and each of its direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries (other than certain immaterial subsidiaries), which are not named as borrowers under the Wells Fargo Revolver.

The Wells Fargo Revolver contains customary provisions relating to mandatory prepayments, restricted payments, voluntary payments, affirmative and negative covenants, and events of default. In addition, the terms of the Wells Fargo Revolver require the Company to maintain, on a consolidated basis, a Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Wells Fargo Revolver) of at least 1.00:1.00 during such times as a covenant trigger event shall exist. The Wells Fargo Revolver also requires the Company to pay additional interest of 2.0% per annum upon triggering certain specified events of default set forth therein.

The performance periods for PSUs granted during: (i) the twenty-six weeks ended September 27, 2025, began March 30, 2025 and ends April 1, 2028; and (ii) the twenty-six weeks ended September 28, 2024, began March 31, 2024 and ends March 27, 2027.

The grant date fair values of the PSUs granted during the twenty-six weeks ended September 27, 2025 and September 28, 2024 were initially measured using the Company’s closing stock price on the date of grant with the resulting stock-based compensation expense recognized on a straight-line basis over the three-year vesting period, subject to certain exceptions. The expense recognized over the vesting period is adjusted up or down on a quarterly basis based on the anticipated performance level during the performance period. If the performance goals are not probable of achievement during the performance period, any previously recognized stock-based compensation expense is reversed. The PSUs are forfeited if the threshold performance goals are not achieved as of the end of the performance period.

7. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is involved, from time to time, in litigation that is incidental to its business. The Company has reviewed these matters to determine if reserves are required for losses that are probable and reasonable to estimate in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 450, Contingencies. The Company evaluates such reserves, if any, based upon several criteria, including the merits of each claim, settlement discussions, and advice from outside legal counsel, as well as indemnification of amounts expended by the Company’s insurers or others pursuant to indemnification policies or agreements, if any.

Table of Contents

The Company is also subject to certain other pending or threatened litigation matters incidental to its business. In management’s opinion, as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, none of these legal matters, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.

During the normal course of its business, the Company has made certain indemnifications and commitments under which the Company may be required to make payments for certain transactions. These indemnifications include those given to various lessors in connection with facility leases for certain claims arising from such facility leases, and indemnifications to directors and officers of the Company to the maximum extent permitted under the laws of the State of Delaware. The majority of these indemnifications and commitments do not provide for any limitation of the maximum potential future payments the Company could be obligated to make, and their duration may be indefinite. The Company has not recorded any liability for these indemnifications and commitments in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as the impact is expected to be immaterial.

8. Leases

The Company does not own any real estate. Instead, most of its retail store locations are occupied under operating leases. The store leases generally have a base lease term of five or 10 years, with one or more renewal periods of five years, on average, exercisable at the Company’s option. The Company is generally responsible for the payment of property taxes and insurance, utilities, and common area maintenance fees. Some leases also require additional payments based on percentage of sales. Lease terms include the non-cancellable portion of the underlying leases along with any reasonably certain lease periods associated with available renewal periods, termination options, and purchase options.

ROU assets are tested for impairment in the same manner as long-lived assets. The Company did not record ROU asset impairment charges related to its stores during the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended ~~June~~September 2827, 2025 and ~~June~~September 2928, 2024.

ROU assets and lease liabilities as of June 28, 2025 and March 29, 2025 consisted of the following:

9. Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). In accordance with ASC 740, the Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the liability method, which requires an adjustment to the deferred tax asset or liability to reflect income tax rates currently in effect. When income tax rates increase or decrease, a corresponding adjustment to income tax expense is recorded by applying the rate change to the cumulative temporary differences. ASC 740 prescribes the recognition threshold and measurement principles for financial statement disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. ASC 740 requires the Company to determine whether it is “more likely than not” that a tax position will be sustained upon examination by the appropriate taxing authorities before any part of the benefit can be recognized. Additionally, ASC 740 provides guidance on recognition measurement, derecognition, classification, related interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition.

The income tax rate was 25.18% and 2227.94% for the thirteen weeks ended ~~June~~September 27, 2025 and September 28, 2024, respectively, and 25.4% and 24.9% for the twenty-six weeks ended September 27, 2025 and ~~June~~September 2928, 2024, respectively. The income tax rate for the thirteen weeks ended ~~June~~September 27, 2025 was lower than the income tax rate for the thirteen weeks ended September 28, 2024, primarily due to reductions in nondeductible expenses in the current-year period. The income tax rate for the twenty-six weeks ended September 27, 2025 was higher than the income tax rate for the ~~thirteen~~twenty-six weeks ended ~~June~~September 2928, 2024, primarily due to a lower income tax benefit from income tax accounting for stock-based compensation in the current-year period.

Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred income tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized. To this end, the Company has considered and evaluated its sources of taxable income, including forecasted future taxable income, and has concluded that a valuation allowance was not required as of ~~June~~September 2827, 2025. The Company will continue to evaluate the need for a valuation allowance at each period end.

The Company’s policy is to accrue interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. At ~~June~~September 2827, 2025 and March 29, 2025, the Company had no accrued liability for penalties and interest.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state jurisdictions. As of ~~June~~September 2827, 2025, the Company was not aware of any ongoing state tax examinations. As of ~~June~~September 2827, 2025, the Company was informed that the Internal Revenue Service will be examining the fiscal 2023 tax year but has not accrued any additional tax liability in connection therewith.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was signed into law, which enacts significant changes to U.S. tax and related laws. The most significant provision of the OBBBA affecting the Company is the one hundred percent bonus depreciation on eligible property acquired after January 19, 2025. The Company has reflected the impact of the OBBBA on its condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 27, 2025 and for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended September 27, 2025.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was signed into law, which enacts significant changes to U.S. tax and related laws. Some of the provisions of the OBBBA affecting corporations include but are not limited to permanent extension, with modifications, of the Foreign Derived Intangible Income (“FDII”) tax provision, increasing the limit of the deduction of interest expense deduction to thirty percent of EBITDA, and one hundred percent bonus depreciation on eligible property acquired after January 19, 2025. The Company is currently evaluating the impacts that the OBBBA may have on its financial condition and results of operations.

10. Related Party Transactions

One member of the Board served on the board of directors at Floor & Decor Holdings, Inc., a specialty retail vendor in the flooring market, through February 2025, and one member of the Board served as an executive officer at Floor & Decor Holdings, Inc. through April 2022. Beginning in March 2025, the Company no longer has a related party relationship with Floor & Decor Holdings, Inc.

During both the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended ~~June~~September 2928, 2024, the Company had no capital expenditures with Floor & Decor Holdings, Inc. that amounted to less than $0.1 million, and were recorded as property and equipment, net on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

11. Earnings Per Share

Earnings per share is computed under the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings per share is computed based on the weighted average number of outstanding shares of common stock during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock plus the effect of dilutive potential shares of common stock outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method, whereby proceeds from such exercise and unamortized compensation, if any, on stock-based awards, are assumed to be used by the Company to purchase the shares of common stock at the average market price during the period. The dilutive effect of stock options and restricted stock is applicable only in periods of net income. PSUs are included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share to the extent that shares underlying such awards would be issuable if the end of the reporting period were the end of the contingency period. Market-based stock option awards are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share until their respective market criteria has been achieved.

Overview

We believe that Boot Barn is the largest lifestyle retail chain devoted to western and work-related footwear, apparel, and accessories in the U.S. As of ~~June~~September 2827, 2025, we operated ~~473~~489 stores in 49 states, as well as our e-commerce websites consisting primarily of bootbarn.com, sheplers.com, countryoutfitter.com, idyllwind.com, and third-party marketplaces, as well as the Boot Barn app. Our product offering is anchored by an extensive selection of western and work boots and is complemented by a wide assortment of coordinating apparel and accessories. Our stores feature a comprehensive assortment of brands and styles, coupled with attentive, knowledgeable store associates. Many of the items that we offer are basics or necessities for our customers’ daily lives and typically represent enduring styles that are not meaningfully impacted by changing fashion trends.

We strive to offer an authentic, one-stop shopping experience that fulfills the everyday lifestyle needs of our customers, and as a result, many of our customers make purchases in both the western and work wear sections of our stores. We target a broad and growing demographic, ranging from passionate western and country enthusiasts, to workers seeking dependable, high-quality footwear and apparel. Our broad geographic footprint, which comprises more than four times as many stores as our nearest direct competitor that sells primarily western and work wear, provides us with significant economies of scale, enhanced supplier relationships, the ability to recruit and retain high quality store associates, and the ability to reinvest in our business at levels that we believe exceed those of our competition.

How We Assess the Performance of Our Business

In assessing the performance of our business, we consider a variety of performance and financial measures. The key indicators we use to evaluate the financial condition and operating performance of our business are net sales and gross profit. In addition, we also review other important metrics, such as same store sales, new store openings, selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses, operating income, and net income.

Net sales

Net sales reflect revenue from the sale of our merchandise at retail locations, as well as sales of merchandise through our e-commerce websites and app. We recognize revenue upon the purchase of merchandise by customers at our stores and upon delivery of the product in the case of our e-commerce websites and app. Net sales also include shipping and handling fees for e-commerce shipments that have been delivered to our customers. Net sales are net of estimated and actual sales returns and deductions for estimated future award redemptions. Revenue from the sale of gift cards is deferred until the gift cards are used to purchase merchandise.

Our business is moderately seasonal, and as a result, our revenues fluctuate from quarter to quarter. In addition, our revenues in any given quarter can be affected by a number of factors, including the timing of holidays, weather patterns, rodeos, and country concerts. The third quarter of our fiscal year, which includes the Christmas shopping season, has historically produced higher sales and disproportionately larger operating income than the other quarters of our fiscal year. However, neither the western nor the work component of our business has been meaningfully impacted by fashion trends or seasonality historically. We believe that many of our customers are driven primarily by utility and brand, and our best-selling styles.

Same store sales

The term “same store sales” generally refers to net sales from stores that have been open at least 13 full fiscal months (“comparable stores”) as of the end of the current reporting period, although we include or exclude stores from our calculation of same store sales in accordance with the following additional criteria:

●

stores that are closed for five or fewer consecutive days in any fiscal month are included in same store sales;

●

stores that are closed temporarily, but for more than five consecutive days in any fiscal month, are excluded from same store sales beginning in the fiscal month in which the temporary closure begins (and for the comparable periods of the prior or subsequent fiscal periods for comparative purposes) until the first full month of operation once the store re-opens;

●

stores that are closed temporarily and relocated within their respective trade areas are included in same store sales;

●

stores that are permanently closed are excluded from same store sales beginning in the month preceding closure (and for the comparable periods of the prior or subsequent fiscal periods for comparative purposes); and

●

acquired stores are added to same store sales beginning on the later of (a) the applicable acquisition date and (b) the first day of the first fiscal month after the store has been open for at least 13 full fiscal months, regardless of whether the store has been operated under our management or predecessor management.

If the criteria described with respect to acquired stores above are met, then all net sales of such acquired store, excluding those net sales before our acquisition of that store, are included for the period presented. However, when an acquired store is included for the period presented, the net sales of such acquired store for periods before its acquisition are included (to the extent relevant) for purposes of calculating “same store sales growth” and illustrating the comparison between the applicable periods. Pre-acquisition net sales numbers are derived from the books and records of the acquired company, as prepared prior to the acquisition, and are not independently verified by us.

In addition to retail store sales, same store sales also include e-commerce sales, e-commerce shipping and handling revenue, and actual retail store or e-commerce sales returns. Sales as a result of an e-commerce asset acquisition are excluded from same store sales until the 13th full fiscal month subsequent to the Company’s acquisition of such assets.

Table of Contents

We exclude gift card escheatment, provision for sales returns and estimated future loyalty award redemptions from sales in our calculation of net sales per store.

Measuring the change in year-over-year same store sales allows us to evaluate how our store base is performing. Numerous factors affect our same store sales, including:

●

national and regional economic trends;

●

our ability to identify and respond effectively to regional consumer preferences;

●

changes in our product mix;

●

changes in pricing;

●

competition;

●

changes in the timing of promotional and advertising efforts;

●

holidays or seasonal periods; and

●

weather.

Opening new stores is an important part of our growth strategy, and we anticipate that a percentage of our net sales in the near future will come from stores not included in our same store sales calculation. Accordingly, same store sales are only one measure that we use to assess the success of our business and growth strategy. Some of our competitors and other retailers may calculate “same” or “comparable” store sales differently than we do. As a result, data in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q regarding our same store sales may not be comparable to similar data made available by other retailers.

Table of Contents

New store openings

New store openings reflect the number of stores, excluding acquired stores, that are opened during a particular reporting period. In connection with opening new stores, we incur pre-opening costs. Pre-opening costs consist of costs incurred prior to opening a new store and primarily consist of manager and other employee payroll, travel and training costs, marketing expenses, initial opening supplies, and costs of transporting initial inventory and certain fixtures to store locations, as well as occupancy costs incurred from the time that we take possession of a store site to the opening of that store. Occupancy costs are included in cost of goods sold, and the other pre-opening costs are included in SG&A expenses. All of these costs are expensed as incurred.

New stores often open with a period of high sales levels, which subsequently decrease to normalized sales volumes. In addition, we experience typical inefficiencies in the form of higher labor, advertising, and other direct operating expenses, and as a result, store-level profit margins at our new stores are generally lower during the start-up period of operation. The number and timing of store openings has had, and is expected to continue to have, a significant impact on our results of operations. In assessing the performance of a new store, we review its actual sales against the sales that we projected that store to achieve at the time we initially approved its opening. We also review the actual number of stores opened in a fiscal year against the number of store openings that we included in our budget at the beginning of that fiscal year.

Gross profit

Gross profit is equal to our net sales less our cost of goods sold. Cost of goods sold includes the cost of merchandise, obsolescence and shrinkage provisions, store and distribution center occupancy costs (including rent, depreciation, and utilities), inbound and outbound freight, supplier allowances, occupancy-related taxes, compensation costs for merchandise purchasing, exclusive brand design and development, distribution center personnel, and other inventory acquisition-related costs. These costs are significant and can be expected to continue to increase as we grow. The components of our reported cost of goods sold may not be comparable to those of other retail companies, including our competitors.

Our gross profit generally follows changes in net sales. We regularly analyze the components of gross profit, as well as gross profit as a percentage of net sales. Specifically, we examine the initial markup on purchases, markdowns and reserves, shrinkage, buying costs, distribution costs, and occupancy costs. Any inability to obtain acceptable levels of initial markups, a significant increase in our use of markdowns or in inventory shrinkage, or a significant increase in freight and other inventory acquisition costs, could have an adverse impact on our gross profit and results of operations.

Table of Contents

initial markups, a significant increase in our use of markdowns or in inventory shrinkage, or a significant increase in freight and other inventory acquisition costs, could have an adverse impact on our gross profit and results of operations.

Gross profit is also impacted by shifts in the proportion of sales of our exclusive brand products compared to third-party brand products, as well as by sales mix changes within and between brands and major product categories such as footwear, apparel, or accessories.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Our SG&A expenses are composed of labor and related expenses, other operating expenses and general and administrative expenses not included in cost of goods sold. Specifically, our SG&A expenses include the following:

●

Labor and related expenses - Labor and related expenses include all store-level salaries and hourly labor costs, including salaries, wages, benefits and performance incentives, labor taxes, and other indirect labor costs.

●

Other operating expenses - Other operating expenses include all operating costs, including those for advertising, pay-per-click, marketing campaigns, operating supplies, certain utilities, and repairs and maintenance, as well as credit card fees and costs of third-party services.

●

General and administrative expenses - General and administrative expenses include expenses associated with corporate and administrative functions that support the development and operations of our stores, including compensation and benefits, travel expenses, corporate occupancy costs, stock-based compensation costs, legal and professional fees, insurance, long-lived asset impairment charges, and other related corporate costs.

Table of Contents

The components of our SG&A expenses may not be comparable to those of our competitors and other retailers. We expect our SG&A expenses will increase in future periods as a result of incremental stock-based compensation, legal, and accounting-related expenses and increases resulting from growth in the number of our stores.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses, as well as the related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. A summary of our significant accounting policies is included in Note 2 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in the Fiscal 2025 10-K.

Certain of our accounting policies and estimates are considered critical, as these policies and estimates are the most important to the depiction of our consolidated financial statements and require significant, difficult, or complex judgments, often about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Such policies are summarized in the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” section of our Fiscal 2025 10-K. As of the date of this filing, there were no significant changes to any of the critical accounting policies and estimates described in the Fiscal 2025 10-K.

Results of Operations

We operate on a fiscal calendar that results in a 52- or 53-week fiscal year ending on the last Saturday of March unless April 1st is a Saturday, in which case the fiscal year ends on April 1st. In a 52-week fiscal year, each quarter includes thirteen weeks of operations; in a 53-week fiscal year, the first, second, and third quarters each include thirteen weeks of operations, and the fourth quarter includes fourteen weeks of operations. Both the current fiscal year ending on March 28, 2026 (“fiscal 2026”) and the fiscal year ended on March 29, 2025 (“fiscal 2025”) consist of 52 weeks.

Gross profit increased primarily due to an increase in sales and merchandise margin, partially offset by the occupancy costs of new stores. The ~~210~~50 basis-point increase in gross profit rate was driven primarily by aan ~~180~~80 basis-point increase in merchandise margin rate, ~~and~~partially offset by 30 basis points of ~~leverage~~deleverage in buying, occupancy and distribution center costs. The increase in merchandise margin rate was primarily the result of better buying economies of scale, ~~lower freight expense,~~ and growth in exclusive brand penetration, partially offset by higher freight expense. The ~~leverage~~deleverage in buying, occupancy and distribution center costs was primarily driven by ~~lower incentive-based compensation and lower distribution center labor costs in~~ the ~~current-year period partially offset by the~~ occupancy costs of new stores.

Gross profit increased primarily due to an increase in sales and merchandise margin, partially offset by the occupancy costs of new stores. The increase in gross profit rate was driven primarily by a 130 basis-point increase in merchandise margin rate. The increase in merchandise margin rate was primarily the result of better buying economies of scale and growth in exclusive brand penetration.

Selling, general and administrative expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We rely on cash flows from operating activities and our credit facility as our primary sources of liquidity. Our primary cash needs are for inventories, operating expenses, occupancy expenses, capital expenditures associated with opening new stores and remodeling or refurbishing existing stores, improvements to our distribution facilities, marketing and information technology expenditures, debt service, and taxes. We have historically used cash for acquisitions and the subsequent rebranding and integration of the stores acquired in those acquisitions. In addition to cash and cash equivalents, the most significant components of our working capital are accounts receivable, inventories, accounts payable, and accrued expenses and other current liabilities. We also use cash to repurchase shares of our common stock under our authorized Repurchase Program. We believe that cash flows from operating activities and the availability of cash under our credit facility will be sufficient to cover working capital requirements, anticipated capital expenditures, and other anticipated cash needs for at least the next 12 months from the date of this filing.

Table of Contents

Our liquidity is moderately seasonal. Our cash requirements generally increase in our third fiscal quarter as we increase our inventory in advance of the Christmas shopping season.

We are planning to continue to open new stores, remodel and refurbish our existing stores, make continued investments in our distribution centers, and make improvements to our e-commerce and information technology infrastructure, which will result in increased capital expenditures. We estimate that our total capital expenditures in fiscal 2026 will be between $115.0 million and $120.0 million (including the capital expenditures made during the thirteen weeks ended June 28, 2025), which is net of estimated landlord tenant allowances of $35.5 million. We anticipate that we will use cash flows from operations to fund these expenditures.27

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of ~~June~~September 2827, 2025. The term “disclosure controls and procedures”, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of ~~June~~September 2827, 2025, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During the quarter ended ~~June~~September 2827, 2025, no changes occurred with respect to our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting.

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

Because of the inherent limitations of internal control over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

As of ~~June~~September 2827, 2025, there were no material changes to the risks described in our Fiscal 2025 10-K.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

On May 8, 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) authorized the Company to repurchase up to $200 million of its common stock (the “Repurchase Program”). Repurchases under the Repurchase Program may be made through a variety of methods, which could include open market purchases, which may or may not be pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 trading plans, privately negotiated transactions, block trades, accelerated share repurchase plans, or any combination of such methods. The timing and amount of shares repurchased will depend on the stock price, business and market conditions, corporate and regulatory requirements, alternative investment opportunities, acquisition opportunities, and other factors. The Company is not obligated to repurchase any specific amount of shares of common stock. The Repurchase Program does not have an expiration date and may be amended or terminated by the Board at any time without prior notice.
