Zumiez Inc

1. Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation

Nature of Business—Zumiez Inc., including its wholly owned subsidiaries, (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” “its” and “our”) is a leading specialty retailer of apparel, footwear, accessories and hardgoods for young men and women who want to express their individuality through the fashion, music, art and culture of action sports, streetwear, and other unique lifestyles. We operate under the names Zumiez, Blue Tomato and Fast Times. We operate ecommerce websites atzumiez.com, zumiez.ca, blue-tomato.com and fasttimes.com.au. At May 3, 2025, we operated 730 stores;569 in the United States (“U.S.”),87 in Europe,46 in Canada, and 28 in Australia.

Fiscal Year—We use a fiscal calendar widely used by the retail industry that results in a fiscal year consisting of a 52- or 53-week period ending on the Saturday closest to January 31. Each fiscal year consists of four 13-week quarters, with an extra week added to the fourth quarter every five or six years. The three months ended May 3, 2025 and May 4, 2024 were 13-week periods.

Basis of Presentation—The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Zumiez Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.

In our opinion, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated balance sheets, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented.

The financial data at February 1, 2025 is derived from audited consolidated financial statements, which are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 1, 2025, and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for the full fiscal year due to seasonality and other factors.

Use of Estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates can also affect supplemental information disclosed by us, including information about contingencies, risk and financial condition. Actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions.

Restricted Cash—Cash and cash equivalents that are restricted as to withdrawal or use under the terms of certain contractual agreements are recorded asrestricted cash in other current assets and other long-term assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash reported within the condensed consolidated balance sheets that sum to the total of the same such amounts shown in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows (in thousands):

As of May 3, 2025, restricted cash included in other current assets and other long-term assets amounted to$3.6 million and$5.7 million, resp ectively. As of February 1, 2025, restricted cash in other current assets and other long-term assets amounted to$3.6 million and$5.3 million, resp ectively. Restricted cash represents amounts held as insurance collateral and collateral for bank guarantees on certain store operating leases.

Recent Accounting Standards—We review recent account pronouncements on a quarterly basis and have excluded discussion of those that are not applicable and those that we determined did not have, or are not expected to have, a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2024-03, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires additional disclosure of the nature of expenses included in the income statement in response to longstanding requests from investors for more information about an entity’s expenses. The new standard requires disclosures about specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented on the face of the income statement as well as disclosures about selling expenses. In January 2025, FASB issued ASU 2025-01, which revises the effective date of ASU 2024-03 to clarify that all public business entities are required to adopt the guidance in annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption of ASU 2024-03 is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that the new ASU will have on its disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (Topic 740). The ASU requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as additional information on income taxes paid. The ASU is effective on a prospective basis for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is also permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. This ASU will result in the required additional disclosures being included in our consolidated financial statements, once adopted. The Company will adopt ASU 2023-09 and include relevant disclosures in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year 2025.

2. Revenue

The following table disaggregates net sales by geographic region (in thousands):

Net sales for the three months ended May 3, 2025 included a$0.5 million decrease due to the change in foreign exchange rates, which consisted of a$0.4 million decrease in Canada,$0.2 million decrease in Australia, partially offset by$0.1 million increase in Europe.

Our contract liabilities include deferred revenue related to our customer loyalty program and gift cards. The current liability for gift cards was$2.9 million at May 3, 2025 and $3.6 million at February 1, 2025, respectively. Deferred revenue related to our STASH loyalty program was$1.1 million at May 3, 2025 and February 1, 2025.

4. Leases

At May 3, 2025, we had operating leases for our retail stores, certain distribution and fulfillment facilities, vehicles and equipment. Our remaining lease terms vary from underone monthto eleven years, with varying renewal and termination options.

The following table presents components of lease expense (in thousands):

(1)

Amounts in the table do not include contingent rent, common area maintenance charges and other non-lease components.

At May 3, 2025, we have excluded from the table above$1.0 million of operating leases that were contractually executed, but had not yet commenced. These operating leases are expected to commence by the end of fiscal 2025.

5. Commitments and Contingencies

Purchase Commitments—At May 3, 2025, we had outstanding purchase orders to acquire merchandise from vendors of$192.6 million. We have an option to cancel these commitments with no notice prior to shipment, except for certain private label and international purchase orders in which we are obligated to repay contractual amounts upon cancellation.

Litigation—We are involved from time to time in claims, proceedings and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business.

We have made accruals with respect to these matters, where appropriate, which are reflected in our condensed consolidated financial statements. For some matters, the amount of liability is not probable or the amount cannot be reasonably estimated and therefore accruals have not been made. We may enter into discussions regarding settlement of these matters, and may enter into settlement agreements, if we believe settlement is in the best interest of our shareholders.

On October 14, 2022, former employee Seana Neihart filed a representative action under California’s Private Attorneys General Act, California Labor Code section 2698 et seq (“PAGA”), against us. An answer to the complaint was filed on December 8, 2022. A first amended complaint was filed on February 8, 2023 adding Jessica King as a plaintiff. The lawsuit alleges a series of wage and hour violations under California’s Labor Code. After mediation on April 18, 2025, the parties have reached a settlement in principle in the amount of $2,890,000 that is subject to preliminary and final court approval. The parties anticipate that a motion seeking preliminary approval of the settlement will be filed in the next 45 to 60 days.

Insurance Reserves—We use a combination of third-party insurance and self-insurance for a number of risk management activities including workers’ compensation, general liability and employee-related health care benefits. We maintain reserves for our self-insured losses, which are estimated based on historical claims experience and actuarial and other assumptions. The self-insurance reserve at May 3, 2025 and February 1, 2025 was$1.8 million and$1.5 million, respectively.

6. Revolving Credit Facilities and Debt

On December 20, 2024, we entered into a credit agreement with PNC Bank, National Association (the “bank”). The Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility of up to $25 million (the “credit facility”) and is available for general corporate purpose. This Credit Facility also provides for the issuances of standby letters of credit in an amount not to exceed $17.5 million, commercial letters of credit in an amount not to exceed $10 million and borrowings in foreign currency with a borrowing sublimit not to exceed $15 million in equivalent U.S. dollars. The amount of borrowing available at any time under the Credit Facility is reduced by the amount of standby and commercial letters of credit outstanding at that time. This credit facility replaced our previously maintained agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. which we terminated on May 3, 2024.

The new Credit Facility is secured by cash and marketable securities that are in an account held and monitored by the Bank. The value of this collateral must always be greater than or equal to the new Credit Facility commitment amount of $25 million. Amounts borrowed under the new Credit Facility bear interest at the rate of SOFR plus 1.00%per annum. The Credit Agreement does not providefor any financial covenants but does include standard and customary covenants consistent with credit facilities of this nature. The new Credit Facility does not carry any ongoing or unused balance fees. The Credit Facility will mature on December 20, 2025.

There wereno borrowings or open commercial letters of credit outstanding under the secured credit facility at May 3, 2025 or February 1, 2025. We had$2.7 million in issued, but undrawn, standby letters of credit at February 1, 2025. As of May 3, 2025, we have$4.2 million in issued, but undrawn, standby letters of credit backed by restricted cash deposits and marketable securities at the bank.

7. Fair Value Measurements

We apply the following fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement:

•

Level 1— Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

•

Level 2— Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable; and

•

Level 3— Inputs that are unobservable.

The following tables summarize assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis (in thousands):

The Level 2 marketable securities include U.S treasury and government agency securities, corporate debt securities, state and local municipal securities and variable-rate demand notes. Fair values are based on quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities or determined using inputs that use readily observable market data that are actively quoted and can be validated through external sources, including third-party pricing services, brokers, and market transactions. We review the pricing techniques and methodologies of the independent pricing service for Level 2 investments and believe that its policies adequately consider market activity, either based on specific transactions for the security valued or based on modeling of securities with similar credit quality, duration, yield, and structure that were recently traded. We monitor security-specific valuation trends and we make inquiries with the pricing service about material changes or the absence of expected changes to understand the underlying factors and inputs and to validate the reasonableness of the pricing.

Assets and liabilities recognized or disclosed at fair value on the consolidated financial statements on a nonrecurring basis include items such as fixed assets, operating lease right-of-use-assets, goodwill, other intangible assets, and other assets. These assets are measured at fair value if determined to be impaired. During the three months ended May 3, 2025, we recognized $0.2 in impairment losses related to fixed assets and $0.3 million in impairment losses related to operating lease right-of-use assets. During the three months ended May 4, 2024, we recognized $0.1 million in impairment losses related to fixed assets andno impairment losses related to operating lease right-of-use assets.

8. Stockholders’ Equity

Share Repurchase—On March 12, 2025, Zumiez Inc. approved the repurchase of up to an aggregate of $25 million of its Common Stock (the “Repurchase Program”). As of May 3, 2025, we have used all of $25 million approved amount to repurchase common stock under the share repurchase program.

The following table summarizes common stock repurchase activity during three months ended May 3, 2025. There wereno common stock repurchases during the three months ended May 4, 2024. (in thousands, except per share amount):

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss —The components of accumulated other comprehensive loss and the adjustments to other comprehensive loss for amounts reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss into net loss are as follows (in thousands):

(1)

Other comprehensive loss before reclassifications was$0.4 million, net of taxes for net unrealized losses on marketable securities for the three months ended May 3, 2025. Other comprehensive loss before reclassifications was$0.1 million, net of taxes for net unrealized losses on marketable for the three months ended May 4, 2024. There wereno net unrealized losses, net of taxes, reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss for the three months ended May 3, 2025 and May 4, 2024, respectively.

(2)

Foreign currency translation adjustments are not adjusted for income taxes as they relate to permanent investments in our international subsidiaries.

9. Equity Awards

We maintain several equity incentive plans under which we may grant incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock bonuses, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units and stock appreciation rights to employees (including officers), non-employee directors and consultants.

We account for stock-based compensation by recording the estimated fair value of stock-based awards granted as compensation expense over the vesting period, net of estimated forfeitures. Stock-based compensation expense is attributed to earnings using a straight-line method. We estimate forfeitures of stock-based awards based on historical experience and expected future activity.

The fair value of restricted stock awards and units is measured based on the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant. The fair value of stock option grants is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

Total stock-based compensation expense is recognized on our condensed consolidated statements ofloss as follows (in thousands):

At May 3, 2025, there was$14.2 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units. This cost has a weighted-average remaining recognition period of 1.4 years.

The following table summarizes restricted stock awards and restricted stock units, collectively defined as “restricted equity awards” (in thousands, except grant date weighted-average fair value):

We had 0.6 million stock options outstanding at May 3, 2025 with a grant date weighted average exercise price of$19.28 and 0.4 million stock options outstanding at February 1, 2025 with a grant date weighted average exercise price of$21.24.

10. Loss per Share, Basic and Diluted

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted loss per share (in thousands, except per share amounts):

There were 0.7 million and 0.6 million anti-dilutive common shares related to stock-based awards for the three months ended May 3, 2025 and May 4, 2024, respectively.

11. Segment Reporting

We identify our operating segments according to how our business activities are managed and evaluated. As of May 3, 2025, our operating segments included our United States operations, Canadian operations, European operations, and Australian operations. Our operating segments have been aggregated and are reported asone reportable segment based on the similar nature of products sold, production, merchandising and distribution processes involved, target customers and economic characteristics. We continually monitor and review our segment reporting structure in accordance with authoritative guidance to determine whether any changes have occurred that would impact our reportable segments.

We identified our CEO as our CODM as the CEO allocates resources and evaluates the performance of our operating segments based on our key performance indicators as outlined in Part I Item 2 of this Form 10-Q.

The CODM uses these measures to monitor trends in year over year performance comparisons, sequential quarter performance comparisons, compare actual results to forecasts and to make investment decisions.

The following table is a summary of significant segment expenses and results of operations:

(1)

Product COGS consists of branded merchandise costs and our private label merchandise costs including design, sourcing, importing, and inbound freight costs.

(2)

Other COGS consists of buying, occupancy, ecommerce fulfillment, distribution and warehousing costs (including associated depreciation) freight costs for store merchandise transfers, inventory shrinkage and impairment of operating lease right-of-use-assets.

(3)

Store SG&A consists of store personnel wages and benefits, freight costs for merchandise shipments from the distribution centers to the stores, store supplies, store depreciation, the cost of our website and supporting teams, and other costs allocated to the operations of our stores.

(4)

Corporate SG&A consists of administrative staff wages and benefits, information technology expenses, depreciation on fixed assets at the home office, facility expenses, impairment costs, training expenses, advertising and marketing costs.

12. Subsequent Event

On June 4, 2025, Zumiez Inc. approved the repurchase of up to an aggregate of $15 million of its Common Stock (the “Repurchase Program”). The repurchases will be made from time to time on the open market at prevailing market prices. The Repurchase Program is expected to continue through June 30, 2026, unless the time period is extended or shortened by the Board of Directors.
