Reworded paragraphs (40)
Previous wording
Macroeconomic issues which impact consumer discretionary spending, such as realized inflation-based price increases and high interest rates, have continued to have an impact on our business. Apparel purchases historically have been influenced by domestic and global economic conditions, which may negatively impact customer demand and may require higher levels of promotion in order to attract and retain customers. Additionally, the variable interest rates associated with our Debt Facilities are negatively affected by higher interest rate environments. Macroeconomic challenges may lead to increased cost of raw materials, packaging materials, labor, energy, fuel, debt and other inputs necessary for the production and distribution of our products. Moreover, uncertainty with respect to trade policy and tariffs, including increased tariffs applicable to countries where our vendors manufacture our product, may result in an increase in the cost of our products.

We are monitoring these developments and are actively pursuing mitigation strategies, but escalating trade tensions may pressure margins and disrupt supply chain efficiency.

We use Net revenue to evaluate revenue performance for the U.S. eCommerce, Europe eCommerce, Outfitters, Third Party and Licensing distribution channels.

Our primary need for liquidity is to fund working capital requirements of our business, which are inventory purchases, payments on debt, capital expenditures and for general corporate purposes. Our cash and cash equivalents and the ABL Facility serve as sources of liquidity for short-term working capital needs and general corporate purposes. The ABL Facility had a balance outstanding of $40.0 million on May 2, 2025, other than letters of credit. Cash generated from our net revenue and profitability, and to a lesser extent our changes in working capital, are driven by the seasonality of our business, with a significant amount of net revenue and operating cash flows generally occurring in the fourth fiscal quarter of each year. We expect that our cash on hand and cash flows from operations, along with revolving on the ABL Facility, will be adequate to meet our capital requirements and operational needs for at least the next 12 months.
