Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

**1.**Description of Business, Organization and Liquidity

Organization and Business

Lulu’s Fashion Lounge Holdings, Inc., a Delaware Corporation (“Lulus”, “we”, “our”, or the “Company”), was formed on August 25, 2017 as a holding company and its primary asset is an indirect membership interest in Lulu’s Fashion Lounge, LLC, the operating company. Prior to the Company’s initial public offering, the Company was majority-owned by Lulu’s Holdings, L.P. (the “LP”), the prior parent company. In connection with the Company’s initial public offering, the LP was liquidated.

Lulu’s Fashion Lounge, LLC was founded in 1996, starting as a vintage boutique in Chico, California that began selling online in 2005 and transitioned to a purely online business in 2008. The LP was formed in 2014 as a holding company and purchased 100% of Lulu’s Fashion Lounge, LLC’s outstanding common stock in 2014. The Company, based in Chico, California, through Lulu’s Fashion Lounge, LLC, is a women’s clothing brand offering modern, feminine styles at accessible prices for every occasion. Our goal is to make every customer feel their most confident and beautiful for the moments that matter most.

Impact of Macroeconomic Trends on Business

Changing macroeconomic factors, including inflation, interest rates, tariffs or bans, world events, wars and domestic and international conflicts, existing and future laws, regulations, directives and executive orders, and overall consumer confidence with respect to current and future economic conditions have directly impacted our sales as discretionary consumer spending levels and shopping behavior fluctuate with these factors. We have responded to these factors by taking appropriate pricing, promotional and other actions to stimulate customer demand. These factors are expected to continue to have an impact on our business, results of operations, our growth and financial condition.

Liquidity

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The primary sources of funds for our business activities are cash flows from operations and cash available under the Loan and Security Agreement with White Oak Commercial Finance, LLC (the “2025 Credit Agreement”). We believe the cash on hand, cash provided by operations and cash available under the 2025 Credit Agreement will enable us to meet our obligations for at least the next 12 months. For further information on the 2025 Credit Agreement, see Note 5,Debt.

**2.**Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Fiscal Year

The Company’s fiscal year consists of a 52-week or 53-week period ending on the Sunday nearest to December 31. The fiscal year ending January 3, 2027 consists of 53-weeks, and the fiscal year ended December 28, 2025 consists of 52-weeks.

The condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, after elimination of all intercompany balances and transactions. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the requirements of the SEC for interim reporting. As permitted under these rules, certain information and disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited.

As discussed in the “Reverse Stock Split” section within Note 8,Stockholders’ Equity (Deficit), all per share amounts and common stock amounts have been adjusted on a retroactive basis to reflect the Reverse Stock Split (as defined below). The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of March 29, 2026 and its results of operations for the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2026 and March 30, 2025 and its cash flows for the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2026 and March 30, 2025. The results of operations for the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending January 3, 2027 or for any other future annual or interim period.

The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on March 30, 2026.

Significant Accounting Policies

Thesignificant accounting policies used in preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those discussed in Note 2 to the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 28, 2025, except as noted below and within the "Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements" section.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The significant estimates and assumptions made by management relate to sales return reserves and related assets for recovery, store credit breakage, lease right-of-use assets and related lease liabilities, income tax valuation allowance and fair value of equity awards. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment, which management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The Company adjusts such estimates and assumptions when facts and circumstances dictate. Changes in those estimates resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment will be reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements in future periods. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could materially differ from those estimates and assumptions.

Concentration of Credit Risks

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents. Such amounts may exceed federally insured limits. The Company reduces credit risk by depositing its cash with major credit-worthy financial institutions within the United States. To date, the Company has not experienced any losses on its cash deposits. As of March 29, 2026, two wholesale customers represented 10% and 13%, respectively, of the Company’s accounts receivable balance. As of December 28, 2025, two wholesale customers represented 15% and 37%, respectively, of the Company’s accounts receivable balance. No single customer accounted for greater than 10% of the Company’s net revenue during the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2026 and March 30, 2025.

Revenue Recognition

The Company generates revenue primarily from the sale of merchandise products directly to end customers. The sale of products is a distinct performance obligation, and revenue is recognized at a point in time when control of the promised product is transferred to customers, which the Company determined occurs upon shipment based on its evaluation of the related shipping terms. Revenue is recognized in an amount that reflects the transaction price consideration that the

Company expects to receive in exchange for those products. The Company’s payment terms are typically at the time of order processing and shipment.

The Company elected to exclude from revenue taxes assessed by governmental authorities, including value-added and other sales-related taxes, that are imposed on and concurrent with revenue-producing activities. The Company has elected to apply the practical expedient, relative to e-commerce sales, which allows an entity to account for shipping and handling as fulfillment activities, and not a separate performance obligation. Accordingly, the Company recognizes revenue for onlyone performance obligation, the sale of the product, at shipping point (when the customer gains control). Shipping and handling costs associated with outbound freight are accounted for as fulfillment costs and are included in cost of goods sold. The Company has elected to apply thepractical expedient to expense costs as incurred for incremental costs to obtain a contract when the amortization period would have been one year or less.

Revenue from merchandise product sales is reported net of sales returns, which includes an estimate of future returns based on historical return rates, with a corresponding reduction to cost of sales. There is judgment in utilizing historical trends for estimating future returns. The Company’s refund liability for sales returns is included in the returns reserve on its condensed consolidated balance sheets and represents the expected value of the refund that will be due to the Company’s customers. The Company’s returns reserve may fluctuate period over period due to seasonal trends, including fluctuation in sales volumes, merchandise mix and the timing of associated customer returns. The Company also has corresponding assets for recovery that represent the expected net realizable value of the merchandise inventory to be returned.

The Company sells stored-value gift cards to customers and offers online store credit for certain returns and promotions. The stored-value gift cards and store credits do not have an expiration date. The Company recognizes revenue from stored-value gift cards and store credits when the card or credit is redeemed by the customer. The Company has determined that sufficient evidence exists to support an estimate for stored-value gift card and store credit breakage. The Company estimates breakage related to store credits using historical redemption rates for each store credit issuance year, which reflects customer redemption patterns. The Company evaluates redemption patterns and may record adjustments to its breakage estimate from time to time. Subject to requirements to remit balances to governmental agencies, breakage is recognized as revenue in proportion to the pattern of rights exercised by the customer, which is substantially within thirty-six months from the date of issuance. The amount of breakage recognized in revenue during the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2026 and March 30, 2025 was$0.5 million for each respective period.

The Company hastwo types of contractual liabilities: (i) cash collections from its customers prior to delivery of products purchased (“deferred revenue”), which are initially recorded within accrued expenses and recognized as revenue when the products are shipped, (ii) unredeemed gift cards and online store credits, which are initially recorded as a stored-value card liability and are recognized as revenue in the period they are redeemed.

The following table summarizes the significant changes in the contract liabilities balances during the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2026 and March 30, 2025 (in thousands):

​ · ​ · ​ · ​
​​ ​ ​Stored-Value
​​ ​ ​Cards

Balance as of March 30, 2025​$19,012

Selling and Marketing Expenses

Advertising costs included in selling and marketing expenses were $10.1 million and $12.0 million for the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2026 and March 30, 2025, respectively.

Net Loss Per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders

Basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed using net loss attributable to common stockholders divided by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders represents net loss attributable to common stockholders divided by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, including the effects of any dilutive securities outstanding. Due to the net loss for all periods presented, no potentially dilutive securities had an impact on diluted loss per share for any period.

The following securities were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders for the periods presented because including them would have been anti-dilutive (on an as-converted basis):

Goodwill, Tradename and Intangible Assets

The Company tests for goodwill impairment at the reporting unit level on the first day of the fourth quarter of each year and between annual tests if significant indicators exist that would suggest the Company's goodwill and intangible assets could potentially be impaired. The Company monitors macroeconomic conditions, industry, competitive environment conditions, overall financial performance, reporting unit specific events and market considerations, among others, for events which could trigger the need for an interim impairment analysis.

The Company performed a qualitative assessment of its goodwill, tradename and intangible assets as of March 29, 2026 and determined that no events or changes in circumstances were identified that would indicate potential impairment related to the goodwill, tradename, and intangible assets recorded during the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2026.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

The Company is an emerging growth company, as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act until such time as those standards apply to private companies. The Company has elected to use this extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until the earlier of the date that it (i) is no longer an emerging growth company or (ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opts out of the extended transition period provided in the JOBS Act. As a result, these condensed consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with the new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.

In July 2025, FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326):Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets, which provides all entities with practical expedient of developing reasonable and supportable forecasts as part of estimating expected credit losses, that assumes that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the asset. ASU 2025-05 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025 (and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods). Early adoption is permitted in both interim and annual reporting periods in which financial statements have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. The Company adopted this guidance for fiscal year 2026, and it did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03,Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40), to disclose specific information about certain income statement expense line items in the notes to its financial statements for interim and annual reporting periods. In January 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-01,Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date, to clarify that ASU 2024-03 is effective for 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. We are currently evaluating this pronouncement to determine its impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In September 2025, FASB issued ASU 2025-06,*Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal Use Software (Topic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software,*to amend certain aspects of the accounting for and disclosure of software costs under ASC 350-40. ASU 2025-06 is effective for all entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027 (and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods). Early adoption is permitted in both interim and annual reporting periods in which financial statements have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. We are currently evaluating this pronouncement to determine its impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In December 2025, FASB issued ASU 2025-11,Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements, which clarifies the guidance in Topic 270 to improve the consistency of interim financial reporting. The ASU provides a comprehensive list of required interim disclosures and introduces a disclosure principle requiring entities to disclose events since the end of the last annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity. ASU 2025-11 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating this pronouncement to determine its impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In December 2025, FASB issued ASU 2025-12,Codification Improvements as part of its standing project to correct, clarify, and make narrow improvements to U.S. GAAP across a broad range of topics. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating this pronouncement to determine its impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

**3.**Fair Value Measurements

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable, accrued expenses, other current liabilities and borrowings under the 2025 Credit Agreement. As of March 29, 2026 and March 30, 2025, the carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate fair value due to their short-term maturities.

Borrowings under the 2025 Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate equal to the 30-day SOFR rate plus 3.95% and is secured by a first-priority security interest in and lien upon all tangible and intangible personal property of the Borrowers, now owned or acquired in the future. Because the interest rate is variable and reset based on SOFR with a market-based margin, the fair value of amounts outstanding under the 2025 Credit Agreement approximates carrying value.

The Company performs the annual goodwill, tradename and intangible assets impairment assessment on the first day of the fourth quarter of each fiscal year. During the Company’s most recent annual impairment assessment for fiscal year 2025, the Company determined that no events or changes in circumstances were identified that would indicate potential impairment related to the goodwill, tradename, and intangible assets recorded during the fifty-two weeks ended December 28, 2025.

The Company does not have any financial instruments that were determined to be Level 3. There were no transfers in or out of Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 assets or liabilities.

**5.**Debt

Credit Facility

On November 15, 2021, the Company entered into the prior credit agreement with Bank of America (the “Prior Credit Agreement”) for a revolving facility that provided for borrowings up to $50.0 million with a maturity date of November 15, 2024. The Prior Credit Agreement was amended subsequently by five amendments which modified a number of terms, including extending the maturity date to August 22, 2025, reducing and ultimately prohibiting further borrowings, revising the applicable interest rates, revising or providing limited waivers of compliance with certain financial covenants, and adding covenants related to achieving a refinancing transaction.

On August 14, 2025, the Company and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Borrowers”) entered into the 2025 Credit Agreement for an asset-based revolving credit facility with a $20.0 million commitment, a $5.0 million uncommitted accordion and a $1.0 million sublimit for letters of credit. The amount that the Borrowers may borrow under the 2025 Credit Agreement is based on a borrowing base calculated based on advance rates for various assets serving as collateral for the 2025 Credit Agreement. Borrowings under the 2025 Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate equal to the 30-day SOFR rate plus 3.95%. The 2025 Credit Agreement is secured by a first-priority security interest in and lien upon all tangible and intangible personal property of the Borrowers, now owned or acquired in the future. The 2025 Credit Agreement includes covenants that limit the Borrowers’ ability to incur indebtedness, to create liens or other encumbrances, to make certain payments and investments, to engage in transactions with affiliates, to guarantee indebtedness and to sell or otherwise dispose of assets and merge or consolidate with other entities. The 2025 Credit Agreement also includes a financial covenant for minimum excess availability under the 2025 Credit Agreement. It also requires the Company to maintain lockbox accounts and cash management arrangements under the control of the Administrative Agent, who has full dominion and control over each Collection Account and all Deposit Accounts (except Excluded Accounts). Outstanding borrowings are classified as current liabilities, however, the 2025 Credit Agreement does not mature until August 14, 2028. On October 28, 2025, the Company entered into an amendment to the 2025 Credit Agreement, which included some clarifying and non-material changes to certain terms in the 2025 Credit Agreement.

The initial funding of the 2025 Credit Agreement occurred on August 14, 2025, and the proceeds were used in part to repay approximately $6.0 million outstanding under the Prior Credit Agreement. In connection with entering into the 2025 Credit Agreement and the repayment in full of all outstanding obligations under the Prior Credit Agreement, the Prior Credit Agreement and the related forbearance agreement and amendments with Bank of America, were terminated.

As of March 29, 2026, the outstanding borrowing under the 2025 Credit Agreement was $13.3 million in addition to a $0.3 million letter of credit outstanding. After giving effect to the excess availability covenant and the outstanding letter of credit, the unused availability was $2.4 million. During the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2026, the Company borrowed $60.7 million and repaid $61.8 million under the 2025 Credit Agreement and borrowings had a weighted average interest rate of 10.1% inclusive of amortization of debt issuance cost.

Debt Discounts and Issuance Costs

Debt discounts and issuance costs are deferred and amortized over the life of the related loan. The associated expense is included in interest expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Debt issuance costs related to the 2025 Credit Agreement are included in prepaids and other current assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of March 29, 2026 and December 28, 2025, unamortized debt issuance costs recorded within prepaids and other current assets were $0.5 million and $0.6 million related to the 2025 Credit Agreement, respectively.

6**.**Leases

The Company primarily leases its distribution facilities, corporate offices and retail stores under operating lease agreements expiring on various dates through January 2029, most of which contain options to extend. In addition to payment of base rent, the Company is also required to pay property taxes, insurance, and common area maintenance expenses. The Company records lease expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. The Company’s corporate headquarters are located in a leased facility in Chico, California, which lease will terminate on May 31, 2026. In early 2026, the Company entered into a lease agreement for a new facility in Chico, California, which will become our new corporate headquarters, effective May 15, 2026.

The Company also leases equipment under finance lease agreements expiring on various dates through April 2029. During the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2026, the Company executed a renewal to extend the lease term of certain finance leases related to equipment by 1.2 years. The extension was not previously considered reasonably certain and was accounted for as a lease modification in the first quarter of 2026. As a result, the Company remeasured the associated lease liabilities using an updated incremental borrowing rate of 5.91%. In addition the lease liabilities were remeasured with a corresponding adjustment to the right-of-use asset of $1.1 million.

In early 2025, the Company consolidated two of its distribution facilities by moving operations from its former distribution facility in Chico, California to its existing distribution facility in Ontario, California. During the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2025, the Company modified the terms and discount rate of two of its operating leases. As a result of the modification, the Company derecognized the related right-of-use asset and lease liability of$3.1 million and$3.2 million, respectively. The modification resulted in the recognition of a gain of$0.1 million.

As of March 29, 2026, the future minimum lease payments for the Company’s operating and finance leases for each of the fiscal years were as follows (in thousands):

​​​​​​​​​​
Fiscal Year: · ​ ​ ​ · ​ · Operating Leases · ​ · Finance Leases · ​ · Total
2026 remaining 9 months​$4,789​$967​$5,756
2027​5,666​​493​​6,159
2028​5,502​​13​​5,515
2029​—​​2​​2
2030​—​​—​​—
Thereafter​​—​​—​​—
Total undiscounted lease payments​​15,957​​1,475​​17,432

Less: lease liabilities, current​​(5,762)​​(1,224)​​(6,986)
Lease liabilities, noncurrent​$9,011​$209​$9,220

Under the terms of the remaining lease agreements, the Company is also responsible for certain variable lease payments that are not included in the measurement of the lease liability, including non-lease components such as common area maintenance fees, taxes, and insurance.

**7.**Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation and Other

From time to time, the Company may be a party to litigation and subject to claims incurred in the ordinary course of business, including personal injury and indemnification claims, labor and employment claims, threatened claims, breach of contract claims, and other matters. The Company accrues a liability when management believes information available prior to the issuance of the condensed consolidated financial statements indicates it is probable a loss has been incurred as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company adjusts its accruals to reflect the impact of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and other information and events pertaining to a particular case. Legal costs are expensed as incurred. Although the results of litigation and claims are inherently unpredictable, management concluded that it was not probable that it had incurred a material loss during the periods presented related to such loss contingencies.

During the normal course of business, the Company may be a party to claims that are not covered by insurance. While the ultimate liability, if any, arising from these claims cannot be predicted with certainty, management does not believe that the resolution of any such claims would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. As of March 29, 2026, the Company was not aware of any currently pending legal matters or claims, individually or in the aggregate, that are expected to have a material adverse impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

Indemnification

The Company also maintains director and officer insurance, which may cover certain liabilities arising from its obligation to indemnify the Company’s directors and officers. To date, the Company has not incurred any material costs and has not accrued any liabilities in the condensed consolidated financial statements as a result of these provisions.

As of March 29, 2026, the Company had 345,679 shares and 68,857 shares available for issuance under the Omnibus Equity Plan and ESPP, respectively. The compensation committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”) administers the Omnibus Equity Plan and determines to whom awards will be granted, the exercise price of any options, the rates at which awards vest and the other terms and conditions of the awards granted under the Omnibus Equity Plan. The Compensation Committee may or may not issue the full number of shares that are reserved for issuance.

The Company’s initial ESPP offering period commenced on August 26, 2022. The ESPP consists of consecutive, overlapping 12-month offering periods that begin on each August 26 and February 26 during the term of the ESPP, and end on each August 25 and February 25 occurring 12 months later, as applicable. Each offering period is comprised oftwo consecutivesix-month purchase periods that begin on each August 26 and February 26 within each offering period and end on each February 25 and August 25, respectively, thereafter. The duration and timing of offering periods and purchase periods may be changed by the Company’s Board of Directors or Compensation Committee at any time. The ESPP allows participants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at a 15 percent discount from the lower of the Company’s stock price on (i) the first day of the offering period or on (ii) the last day of the purchase period and includes a rollover mechanism for the purchase price if the stock price on the purchase date is less than the stock price on the offering date. The ESPP also allows participants to reduce their percentage election once during the offering period, but they cannot increase their election until the next offering period.

The Company recognizes equity-based compensation expense related to shares issued pursuant to the ESPP on a graded vesting approach over each offering period. For the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2026, and March 30, 2025, equity-based compensation expense related to our ESPP was immaterial. During the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2026 and March 30, 2025, the Company issued 5,822 shares and 3,951 shares, respectively, pursuant to the ESPPsix-month purchase periods ended February 25, 2026 and February 25, 2025, respectively.

The Company used the Black-Scholes model to estimate the fair value of the purchase rights under the ESPP. For the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2026, the Company utilized the following assumptions:

​​​​​
Expected term (in years)​​0.50 to 1.00​
Expected volatility​​102.85 to 117.46%
Risk-free interest rate​​3.85 to 4.06%
Dividend yield​​-​
Weighted-average fair value per share of ESPP awards granted​$0.86 to 2.01​

Equity-based compensation expense is included in general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

2024 Stock Repurchase Program

On May 8, 2024, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program allowing the Company to repurchase up to an aggregate amount of$2.5 million of its shares of common stock (the "2024 Repurchase Program"). During the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2026, no shares were repurchased pursuant to the Company’s 2024 Repurchase Program.

As of March 29, 2026, $1.1 million remained available under the 2024 Repurchase Program authorization. The actual timing, number, and value of shares repurchased in the future will be determined by the Company in its discretion and will depend on a number of factors, including market conditions, applicable legal requirements, our capital needs, and whether there is a better alternative use of capital. The 2024 Repurchase Program does not require the Company to purchase a minimum number of shares, and may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time without prior notice.

Reverse Stock Split

On June 11, 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a 1-for-15 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share. On June 26, 2025, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to effect the Reverse Stock Split. As a result, each stockholder of record on June 26, 2025 receivedone share of common stock for every fifteen shares held on the record date. No fractional shares were issued as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders who otherwise would have been entitled to receive fractional shares because they held a number of shares of common stock not evenly divisible by the Reverse Stock Split ratio, received such number of shares of common stock rounded up to the nearest whole number. All share, equity award, and per share amounts presented herein have been retroactively adjusted to reflect this Reverse Stock Split, as applicable. The Reverse Stock Split was effective for purposes of trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market as of the opening of business on July 7, 2025.

2021 Equity Plan

**9.**Income Taxes

All of the Company’s loss before income taxes is from the United States. The following table presents the components of the income tax benefit (provision) for income taxes (in thousands):

​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​
​ · ​ · Thirteen Weeks Ended · ​
​ · ​ · March 29, · ​ · March 30,
​ · ​ ​ ​ · 2026 · ​ ​ ​ · 2025
Loss before benefit (provision) for income taxes​$(3,897)​$(8,072)​
Benefit (provision) for income taxes​(193)​74​
Effective tax rate​5.0%(0.9)%

The Company’s benefit (provision) for income taxes during interim reporting periods has historically been calculated by applying an estimate of the annual effective tax rate for the full year to “ordinary” income or loss (pre-tax income or loss excluding unusual or infrequently occurring discrete items) for the reporting period. However, for fiscal 2025, due to the uncertain and evolving impacts related to tariffs, the Company believed that using the year-to-date actual operating result was more reasonable. As such, beginning with the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2025, the Company’s tax benefit for interim periods was determined using a discrete effective tax rate method, as allowed by ASC Topic 740-270, Income Taxes, Interim Reporting.

For fiscal 2026, the Company was able to provide a reasonable annual forecast. As such, beginning with the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2026, the Company's tax provision for the interim period was determined using an estimated annual effective tax rate method, as the primary method for ASC Topic 740-270, Income Tax, Interim Reporting.

For the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2026 and March 30, 2025, the Company's effective tax rate differed from the federal income tax rate of 21% primarily due to the establishment or adjustment of a valuation allowance against its deferred taxes, as the Company could not provide sufficient positive evidence that the deferred tax assets (“DTAs”) will be more-likely-than-not realized in the future.

The Company regularly assesses the realizability of DTAs and records a valuation allowance to reduce the DTAs to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. In assessing the realizability of our DTAs, we weigh all available positive and negative evidence. This evidence includes, but is not limited to, historical earnings, scheduled reversal of taxable temporary differences, tax planning strategies and projected future taxable income. Due to the weight of objectively verifiable negative evidence, the Company maintained a valuation allowance of $16.7 million as of December 28, 2025 and maintained the same position as of March 29, 2026.

**10.**Related Party Transactions

Significant Shareholder Relationships

The Company identified three shareholders with aggregate ownership interest in the Company greater than 10%. The Company reviewed the respective investment portfolio holdings of these shareholders and identified investments in other entities that the Company engages in business with. All of these business relationships were obtained without the support of these shareholders, and as such, are believed to be at terms comparable to those that would be obtained through arm’s length dealings with unrelated third parties.

**11.**Segment Reporting

The Company identifies operating segments based on whether the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, who is the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), regularly reviews operating results of particular components of the Company’s activities and allocates resources and assesses performance based on those results.

The Company hasone reportable segment related to the sale of merchandise directly to end customers. Neither sales to wholesale customers nor international customers are greater than 10% of total revenue, and therefore, neither requires separate disclosure as a reportable segment. All long-lived assets are located in the United States and substantially all revenue is attributable to customers based in the United States.

The measurement of segment assets is reported on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as total condensed consolidated assets. All assets, liabilities, cash flows, revenue and expenses are reported in the Company’sone reportable segment. When evaluating the Company’s financial performance and making strategic decisions, the CODM focuses their review of expenses incurred by the nature of those expenses.

The table below is a summary of the segment profit or loss, including significant segment expenses (in thousands):
