Item 2.02Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

Fourth Quarter 2023 Preliminary Unaudited Results

While the results are preliminary and subject to the Company’s detailed year-end closing process and an independent audit, the Company announced that it now expects to report the following results for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023:

·Net sales are expected to be approximately $454 million to $456 million, versus the Company’s prior guidance of $460 million to $465 million.

·Adjusted operating loss, which will exclude certain non-recurring costs, the gain from the settlement of a lawsuit, and non-cash asset impairments, if any, for the quarter is expected to be in the range of (9.0%) to (8.0%) of net sales, versus the Company’s prior guidance of adjusted operating income of approximately 2% to 3% of net sales. The adjusted operating loss reflects the impact of lower than expected merchandise margin resulting from more aggressive promotions in an effort to maximize sales, higher than anticipated split shipments to meet customer e-commerce demand, and increased inventory valuation adjustments. The Company projects to end the year in a clean inventory position with inventory expected to be down 16% to 20% versus the prior year.  Information reconciling the above non-GAAP measure to the most comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP is not available without unreasonable effort due to high variability, complexity and uncertainty with respect to finalizing and quantifying the components that are necessary for such reconciliation at this time.

·Total liquidity as of February 3, 2024 is expected to be approximately $45 million (including approximately $13 million of cash and cash equivalents and approximately $32 million of excess availability under the Company's Credit Facility after excluding all necessary reserves and excess availability requirements). As previously anticipated, total indebtedness is expected to decrease by more than $100 million versus the third quarter of fiscal 2023 and, as of February 3, 2024, is expected to be approximately $277 million as compared to $408 million as of the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2023.

The Company plans to provide further commentary on the fourth quarter and full fiscal year 2023 actual results, and the Company’s outlook for fiscal 2024, during the first quarter of fiscal 2024 as part of its earnings release and conference call.

The preliminary unaudited information in this Current Report is being furnished pursuant to Item 2.02 of Form 8-K, insofar as it discloses information regarding the Company’s results of operations and financial condition as of and for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023.
