In the first quarter of 2026, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $2.7 million, which consisted of a right-of-use asset of $2.0 million and associated leasehold improvements of $0.7 million relating to the closure of the Salt Lake City fulfillment center as discussed in further detail in Note 13. The Company performed a recoverability test on the asset group. This test indicated that the carrying amount of the asset was not recoverable, as it exceeded the sum of the future undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the assets. Consequently, the Company proceeded to measure the impairment loss by comparing the asset group's carrying amount to its fair value. The fair value, which is considered to be a level 3 non-recurring fair value measurement, was determined using a discounted cash flow analysis (an income approach). The discounted cash flow analysis utilized level 3 fair value inputs including cash flow projections and discount rates. The resulting impairment charge of $2.7 million represents the amount by which the carrying value exceeded the calculated fair value. The impairment charge recorded is included in impairment of long-lived assets in the Company's condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended May 3, 2026.

TRI Holdings, LLC

TRI entered into a senior secured note (“TRI Senior Secured Note”) with an original balance of $26.7 million. The TRI Senior Secured Note is scheduled to mature on October 15, 2038 and requires installment payments with an interest rate of 4.95%. See Note 6 “Variable Interest Entities” for further information.

TRI entered into a promissory note (“TRI Note”) with an original balance of $3.5 million. The TRI Note is scheduled to mature in November 2038 and requires annual interest payments at a rate of 3.05%, with a final balloon payment due in November 2038.

While the above notes are consolidated in accordance with ASC Topic 810, Consolidation, the Company is not the guarantor nor the obligor of these notes.

Credit Agreement

On April 28, 2025, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) among the Company, certain financial institutions as Lenders thereto, and BMO Bank N.A., as Administrative Agent, a Swing Line Lender and a Letter of Credit Issuer. The Credit Agreement provides for borrowings of up to $100.0 million in aggregate principal amount that are available under an asset-based revolving senior credit facility (the “Revolver”) with a $10.0 million sublimit for the issuance of standby letters of credit.

Under the Credit Agreement, (i) each Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) loan will bear interest on the outstanding principal amount at a rate per annum equal to adjusted term SOFR plus 150 basis points; (ii) each base rate loan will bear interest on the outstanding principal amount from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus 50 basis points; (iii) each swing line loan will bear interest on the outstanding principal amount from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the base rate plus the applicable margin; and (iv) each other obligation will bear interest on the unpaid amount at a rate per annum equal to the base rate plus the applicable margin.

The Company is also permitted to voluntarily prepay the Credit Agreement in whole or in part at any time, where borrowings bearing interest based on the base rate may be prepaid at any time without penalty and borrowings bearing interest based on SOFR may be prepaid, subject to payment of usual and customary breakage and redeployment costs. The revolver will mature on April 28, 2030. Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Company may request an increase in the revolving credit commitments in the aggregate amount of up to $25.0 million during the term of the Credit Agreement and with the consent of the Administrative Agent, subject to credit approval of the Lenders and the satisfaction of certain conditions. The Credit Agreement contains customary events of default and financial, affirmative and negative covenants and is secured by a first-priority perfected security interest in substantially all of the tangible and intangible assets of the Company.

The new $100.0 million Revolver replaced the prior revolving credit facility at a lower interest rate and extends the availability of funds to April 28, 2030. The Company believes the Credit Agreement will provide the Company with flexibility and liquidity to finance seasonal inventory builds.

On July 16, 2025, the Company entered into the First Amendment to the Credit Agreement, pursuant to which all revolving credit loans advanced or prepaid pursuant to such Sweep to Loan Arrangement shall bear interest based on the Base Rate.

On October 1, 2025, the Company entered into the Second Amendment to the Credit Agreement, which, among other things, (i) temporarily increased the aggregate revolving credit commitment under the Credit Agreement from $100.0 million to $125.0 million, as allowed by the existing Credit Agreement, beginning on October 1, 2025 until March 31, 2026, as of which date the revolving credit commitment returned to $100.0 million.

As of May 3, 2026, the Company had drawn $6.0 million and had issued and outstanding letters of credit of $0.7 million under the Revolver, which reduced the amount available for cash advances under the facility to $93.3 million.

  1. FAIR VALUE

ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures(“ASC 820”), defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e., an exit price). The exit price is based on the amount that the holder of the asset or liability would receive or need to pay in an actual transaction (or in a hypothetical transaction if an actual transaction does not exist) at the measurement date. ASC 820 describes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, as follows:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 – Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value are categorized as Level 3 instruments. The fair value of the Company’s available-for-sale security was valued based on a discounted cash flow method (Level 3), which incorporates the U.S. Treasury yield curve, credit information and an estimate of future cash flows. During the three months ended May 3, 2026, certain changes in the inputs did impact the fair value of the available-for-sale security. The calculated fair value is based on estimates that are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

The amortized cost and fair value of the Company’s available-for-sale security and the corresponding amount of gross unrealized gains and losses recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income are as follows:

The Company does not intend to sell the available-for-sale-security in the near term and does not believe that it will be required to sell the security. The Company reviews its securities on a quarterly basis to monitor its exposure to other-than-temporary impairment.

No other-than-temporary impairment was recorded in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended May 3, 2026 or May 4, 2025.

The following table presents future principal receipts related to the Company’s available-for-sale security by contractual maturity as of May 3, 2026.

The above long-term debt, including short-term portion is attributable to the consolidation of TRI in accordance with ASC Topic 810, Consolidation. The fair value was also based on a discounted cash flow method (Level 3) based on credit information and an estimate of future cash flows.

  1. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

Based upon the criteria set forth in ASC 810, Consolidation, the Company consolidates variable interest entities (“VIEs”) in which it has a controlling financial interest and is therefore deemed the primary beneficiary. A controlling financial interest will have both of the following characteristics: (a) the power to direct the VIE activities that most significantly impact economic performance; and (b) the obligation to absorb the VIE losses and the right to receive benefits that are significant to the VIE. The Company has determined that it was the primary beneficiary ofone VIE as of May 3, 2026 and February 1, 2026.

The Company leases the Company’s headquarters in Mt. Horeb, Wisconsin from TRI. In conjunction with the lease, the Company originally invested $6.3 million in a trust that loaned funds to TRI for the construction of the Company’s headquarters. TRI is a Wisconsin limited liability company whose primary purpose and activity is to own this real property. The Company considers itself the primary beneficiary for TRI as the Company has both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and is expected to receive benefits that are significant to TRI. As the Company is the primary beneficiary, it consolidates TRI and the lease is eliminated in consolidation. The Company does not consolidate the trust as the Company is not the primary beneficiary.

The condensed consolidated balance sheets include the following amounts as a result of the consolidation of TRI as of May 3, 2026 and February 1, 2026:

  1. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Earnings per share is computed under the provisions of ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares plus the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method. Dilutive potential common shares include outstanding restricted stock and are considered only for dilutive earnings per share unless considered anti-dilutive. The reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic and diluted earnings per share calculation is as follows:

Three Months Ended

Numerator - net loss attributable to controlling interest$(10,101)$(15,293)

Dilutive shares——
Diluted34,71233,714
Loss per share (Class A and Class B)
Basic and diluted$(0.29)$(0.45)

The computation of diluted loss per share excluded 1.5 million and 0.8 million of unvested restricted stock for the three months ended May 3, 2026 and May 4, 2025, respectively, because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive due to a net loss.

  1. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation plan in accordance with ASC 718, Stock Compensation, which requires the Company to measure all share-based payments at grant date fair value and recognize the cost over the requisite service period of the award.

Total stock compensation expense associated with restricted stock recognized by the Company was $0.7 million and $0.3 million for the three months ended May 3, 2026 and May 4, 2025, respectively. The Company’s total stock compensation expense is included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

A summary of the activity in the Company’s unvested restricted stock during the three months ended May 3, 2026 is as follows:

  1. INCOME TAXES

The Company’s provision for income taxes during the 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. The effective tax rate related to controlling interest was (1.2%) and (9.0%) for the three months ended May 3, 2026 and May 4, 2025, respectively. The income from TRI was excluded from the calculation of the Company’s effective tax rate, as TRI is a limited liability company and not subject to income tax. The Company maintains a valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets as of the three months period ended May 3, 2026.

  1. SEGMENT REPORTING

As of May 3, 2026 and May 4, 2025, the Company hadone reportable segment. The Company’s operating segment is based on how the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) makes decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance. The Company's CODM is its Chief Executive Officer. The CODM has the ultimate decision-making authority for resource allocation and assessing the performance of the Company. Thereby, the CODM regularly reviews consolidated net income as the measure of segment profit or loss, as well as significant segment expenses included in the below table, to evaluate operating performance, generate future operating plans and make strategic decisions regarding the allocation of capital. The CODM also uses these measures in monitoring plan versus actual results. The CODM does not review segment assets at a different level or category than those disclosed in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The following table summarizes the Company’s gross margin and selling, general and administrative expenses.
