Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(in thousands, except share and per share data)
Note 1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation
(A) Description of Business: The Company is a global retail company that operates the Vince brand women's and men's ready-to-wear business. Vince, established in 2002, is a leading global luxury apparel and accessories brand best known for creating elevated yet understated pieces for every day effortless style. Previously, the Company also owned and operated the Rebecca Taylor and Parker brands until the sale of the respective intellectual property was completed, as discussed below.
On April 21, 2023 the Company entered into a strategic partnership ("Authentic Transaction") with Authentic Brands Group, LLC ("Authentic"), a global brand development, marketing and entertainment platform, whereby the Company contributed its intellectual property to a newly formed Authentic subsidiary ("ABG Vince") for cash consideration and a membership interest in ABG Vince. The Company closed the Asset Sale (as defined below) on May 25, 2023. On May 25, 2023, in connection with the Authentic Transaction, V Opco, LLC (formerly, Vince, LLC) ("V Opco"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a License Agreement (the "License Agreement") with ABG-Vince LLC, which provides V Opco with an exclusive, long-term license to use the Licensed Property in the Territory to the Approved Accounts (each as defined in the License Agreement). See Note 2 "Significant Transactions" for additional information.
Rebecca Taylor, founded in 1996 in New York City, was a contemporary womenswear line lauded for its signature prints, romantic detailing and vintage inspired aesthetic, reimagined for a modern era. On September 12, 2022, the Company announced its decision to wind down the Rebecca Taylor business. On December 22, 2022, the Company's indirectly wholly owned subsidiary, Rebecca Taylor, Inc., completed the sale of its intellectual property and certain related ancillary assets to RT IPCO, LLC, an affiliate of Ramani Group. On May 3, 2024, V Opco completed the sale of all outstanding shares of Rebecca Taylor, Inc., which held the Rebecca Taylor business prior to the wind down, to Nova Acquisitions, LLC.
Parker, founded in 2008 in New York City, was a contemporary women's fashion brand that was trend focused. During the first half of fiscal 2020 the Company decided to pause the creation of new products for the Parker brand to focus resources on the operations of the Vince and Rebecca Taylor brands. On February 17, 2023, the Company's indirectly wholly owned subsidiary, Parker Lifestyle, LLC, completed the sale of its intellectual property and certain related ancillary assets to Parker IP Co. LLC, an affiliate of BCI Brands.
On January 22, 2025, P180, a venture focused on accelerating growth and profitability in the luxury apparel sector, acquired a majority stake in the Company (the “P180 Acquisition”) from affiliates of Sun Capital Partners, Inc. (collectively, “Sun Capital”). Simultaneously with the P180 Acquisition, V Opco amended its existing credit agreement with Bank of America, N.A. (“BofA”). The amendment consented to, among other things, the change in control in connection with the P180 Acquisition, as well as a partial pay down of the subordinated debt with SK Financial Services, LLC, an affiliate of Sun Capital, through increased borrowings under the credit agreement with BofA. See Note 2 "Significant Transactions" for additional information.
The Company reaches its customers through a variety of channels, specifically through major wholesale department stores and specialty stores in the United States ("U.S.") and select international markets, as well as through the Company's branded retail locations and the Company's website. The Company designs products in the U.S. and sources the vast majority of products from contract manufacturers outside the U.S., primarily in Asia. Products are manufactured to meet the Company's product specifications and labor standards.
(B) Basis of Presentation: The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. Therefore, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with VHC's audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, as set forth in the 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the Company's accounts and the accounts of the Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries as of August 1, 2026. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) and disclosures necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for these periods are not necessarily comparable to, or indicative of, results of any other interim period or the fiscal year as a whole.
(C) Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires that management make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at thedate of the financial statements which affect revenues and expenses during the period reported. Estimates are adjusted when necessary to reflect actual experience. Significant estimates and assumptions may affect many items in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from estimates and assumptions in amounts that may be material to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
(D) Sources and Uses of Liquidity: The Company's sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents, cash flows from operations, if any, borrowings available under the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility (as defined in Note 4 "Long-Term Debt and Financing Arrangements") and the Company's ability to access the capital markets, including the Sales Agreement entered into with Virtu Americas LLC in June 2023 (see Note 7 "Stockholders' Equity" for further information). The Company's primary cash needs are funding working capital requirements, including royalty payments under the License Agreement, meeting debt service requirements and capital expenditures for new stores and related leasehold improvements. The most significant components of the Company's working capital are cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, inventories, accounts payable and other current liabilities.
The Company’s future financial results may be subject to substantial fluctuations, and may be impacted by business conditions and macroeconomic factors, particularly in light of the recently implemented tariffs. While we expect to meet our monthly Excess Availability (as defined in the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility Agreement) covenant and believe that our other sources of liquidity will generate sufficient cash flows to meet our obligations for the next twelve months from the date these financial statements are issued, the foregoing expectation is dependent on a number of factors, including, among others, our ability to generate sufficient cash flow from a combination of tariff mitigating initiatives, our ongoing ability to manage our operating obligations, the ability of our partners to satisfy their payment obligations to us when due, the results of the currently ongoing inventory valuation and potential borrowing restrictions imposed by our lenders based on their credit judgment, all of which could be significantly and negatively impacted by the recently implemented and new retaliatory and/or reciprocal tariffs, as well as changing trade policies between the U.S. and its trading partners, in addition to other macroeconomic factors. Any material negative impact from these factors or others could require us to implement alternative plans to satisfy our liquidity needs which may be unsuccessful. In the event that we are unable to timely service our debt, meet other contractual payment obligations or fund our other liquidity needs, we may need to refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness before maturity, seek waivers of or amendments to our contractual obligations for payment, reduce or delay scheduled expansions and capital expenditures, liquidate inventory through additional discounting, sell material assets or operations, or seek other financing opportunities. There can be no assurance that these options would be readily available to us and our inability to address our liquidity needs could materially and adversely affect our operations and jeopardize our business, financial condition and results of operations.
(E) Revenue Recognition: The Company recognizes revenue when performance obligations identified under the terms of contracts with its customers are satisfied, which generally occurs upon the transfer of control in accordance with the contractual terms and conditions of the sale. Sales are recognized when the control of the goods are transferred to the customer for the Company's wholesale business, upon receipt by the customer for the Company's e-commerce business, and at the time of sale to the consumer for the Company's retail business. See Note 12 "Segment Financial Information" for disaggregated revenue amounts by segment.
Revenue associated with gift cards is recognized upon redemption and unredeemed balances are considered a contract liability and recorded within other accrued expenses, which are subject to escheatment within the jurisdictions in which the Company operates. As of August 1, 2026 and January 31, 2026, the contract liability was $1,356 and $1,450, respectively. For thethree months ended August 1, 2026, the Company recognized $78 of revenue that was previously included in the contract liability as of May 2, 2026. For thesix months ended August 1, 2026, the Company recognized $149 of revenue that was previously included in the contract liability as of January 31, 2026.
(F) Recent Accounting Pronouncements: Except as noted below, the Company has considered all recent accounting pronouncements and has concluded that there are no recent accounting pronouncements that may have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements, based on current information.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements and Disclosure Rules
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03: Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. The ASU is intended to improve disclosures about a public business entity's expenses, primarily through additional disaggregation of income statement expenses. The FASB further clarified the effective date in January 2025 with the issuance of ASU 2025-01: Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The requirements of the ASU will be applied prospectively with the option for retrospective application. We are currently evaluating the ASU to determine the impact on the Company's disclosures.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-06: Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40). This ASU modernizes and clarifies the threshold for when an entity is required to start capitalizing internal-use software costs, which occurs when (i) management has authorized and committed to funding a software project and (ii) it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. The guidance in this ASU, which can be applied prospectively, retrospectively, or via a modified transition approach, becomes effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the ASU to determine the impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
Note 2. Significant Transactions
Sale of Vince Intellectual Property
On April 21, 2023, the Company entered into the Asset Purchase Agreement (defined below), pursuant to which V Opco agreed to sell and transfer to ABG-Vince LLC (f/k/a ABG-Viking, LLC) ("ABG Vince"), an indirect subsidiary of Authentic, all intellectual property assets related to the business operated under the Vince brand in exchange for total consideration of $76,500 in cash and a 25% membership interest in ABG Vince (the "Asset Sale"). The Asset Sale was consummated in accordance with the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement on May 25, 2023 (the "Closing Date"). Through the agreement, Authentic owns the majority stake of 75% membership interest in ABG Vince.
Operating Agreement
On May 25, 2023, in connection with the closing (the "Closing") of the Asset Sale pursuant to the Intellectual Property Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Asset Purchase Agreement"), dated as of April 21, 2023, by and among V Opco, ABG Vince, the Company and ABG Intermediate Holdings 2 LLC, V Opco and ABG Vince entered into an Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of ABG-Vince, LLC (the "Operating Agreement"), which, among other things, provides for the management of the business and the affairs of ABG Vince, the allocation of profits and losses, the distribution of cash of ABG Vince among its members and the rights, obligations and interests of the members to each other and to V Opco.
The Company accounts for its 25% interest in ABG Vince under the equity method. In applying the equity method, the Company recorded the initial investment at cost and subsequently increases or decreases the carrying amount of the investment by the Company's proportionate share of net income or loss. Distributions received from ABG Vince are recognized as a reduction of the carrying amount of the investment. The Company's proportionate share of ABG Vince's net income or loss is recorded within Equity in net income of equity method investment on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). The carrying value for the Company's investment in ABG Vince is recorded within Equity method investment on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company records its share of net income or loss using a one-month lag. This convention does not materially impact the Company's results.
The Company reviews its investment in ABG Vince for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that an other-than-temporary decline in value may have occurred. If the carrying value of the investment exceeds its fair value and the loss in value is other than temporary, the investment is considered impaired and reduced to fair value, and the impairment is recognized in the period identified. Factors providing evidence of such a loss include changes in ABG Vince's operations or financial condition, significant continuing losses, and significant negative economic conditions, among others. During the three and six months ended August 1, 2026 and the fiscal year 2025, there wasno impairment of the investment in ABG Vince.
License Agreement
On May 25, 2023, in connection with the Closing, V Opco and ABG Vince entered into a License Agreement (the "License Agreement"), which provides V Opco with a license to use the Licensed Property in the Territory, which is defined as the United States, Canada, Andorra, Austria, Germany, Switzerland, Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg, France, Monaco, Liechtenstein, Italy, San Marino, Vatican City, Iceland, Norway, Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Spain, Portugal, Greece, Republic of Cyprus (excluding Northern Cyprus), United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, Mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, Singapore, Japan and Korea (the "Core Territory"), together with all other territories (the "Option Territory"), to the Approved Accounts (each as defined in the License Agreement). V Opco is required to operate and maintain a minimum of 45 Retail Stores and Shop-in-Shops in the Territory. The Option Territory may be changed unilaterally by ABG Vince at any time after the effective date of the License Agreement.
Additionally, the License Agreement provides V Opco with a license to use the Licensed Property to design, manufacture, promote, market, distribute, and sell ready-to-wear Sportswear Products and Outerwear Products (the "Core Products") and Home Décor (the "Option Products," together with the Core Products, the "Licensed Products"), which Option Products may be changed unilaterally by ABG Vince at any time after the effective date of the License Agreement.
The initial term of the License Agreement began on May 25, 2023, the date on which the Closing actually occurred, and ends at the end of the Company's 2032 fiscal year, unless sooner terminated pursuant to the terms of the License Agreement. V Opco has the option to renew the License Agreement on the terms set forth in the License Agreement for eight consecutive periods of ten years each, unless the License Agreement is sooner terminated pursuant to its terms or V Opco is in material breach of the License Agreement and such breach has not been cured within the specified cure period. V Opco may elect not to renew the term for a renewal term.
V Opco is required to pay ABG Vince a royalty on net sales of Licensed Products and committed to an annual guaranteed minimum royalty of $11,000 and annual minimum net sales as specified in the License Agreement, in each case, during the initial term of the License Agreement, except that the guaranteed minimum royalty and minimum net sales for the first contract year during the initial term was prorated to the period beginning on the Closing Date and ended at the end of the Company's 2023 fiscal year. The annual guaranteed minimum royalty and annual minimum net sales for each subsequent renewal term is equal to the greater of (i) a percentage as set forth in the License Agreement of the guaranteed minimum net royalty or the minimum net sales (as applicable) of the immediately preceding contract year, and (ii) the average of actual Royalties (as defined in the License Agreement, with respect to the guaranteed minimum royalty) or actual Net Sales (as defined in the License Agreement, with respect to the annual minimum net sales) during certain years as set forth in the License Agreement of the preceding initial term or renewal term (as applicable). V Opco is required to pay royalties comprised of a low single digit percentage of net sales arising from retail and e-commerce sales of Licensed Products and a mid single digit percentage of net sales arising from wholesale sales of such Licensed Products.
In the event that the annual guaranteed minimum royalty paid to ABG Vince in any given contract year is greater than the actual royalties earned by ABG Vince in the same contract year, the difference between the royalty actually earned and the annual guaranteed minimum royalty paid is credited for the next two contract years against any amount of royalty earned by ABG Vince in excess of the annual guaranteed minimum royalty paid during each such contract year, if any. Royalty expense is included within Cost of product sold on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).
P180 Acquisition
On January 22, 2025, P180 Vince Acquisition Co. (“P180”) purchased 8,481,318 shares of common stock of the Company, which constituted approximately 67% of the Company’s outstanding common stock, from affiliates of Sun Capital in a privately negotiated stock purchase transaction (the “P180 Acquisition”) for approximately $19,800 in cash. Of these purchased shares,1,262,933 were held back at the closing by the affiliates of Sun Capital and all or a portion of such shares were to be transferred to P180 in the event the remaining outstanding obligations under the Sun Amended Credit Agreement were purchased by P180 (or any of its affiliates or designees) from SK Financial Services, or otherwise repaid in full, prior to September 22, 2025. P180 agreed to forfeit its right to, and such affiliates of Sun Capital would be entitled to retain, a portion of such held back shares if such purchase or repayment occurred after January 24, 2025, and to forfeit its right to all held back shares if such purchase or repayment did not occur on or prior to September 22, 2025. The affiliates of Sun Capital agreed to various voting, transfer and other restrictions on the held back shares. As a purchase or repayment of the remaining outstanding obligations under the Sun Amended Credit Agreement did not occur on or prior to September 22, 2025, P180 forfeited its right to all held back shares.
Note 3. Fair Value Measurements
We define the fair value of a financial instrument as the amount that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. We are responsible for the determination of the value of the investments carried at fair value and the supporting methodologies and assumptions. The Company's financial assets and liabilities are to be measured using inputs from three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:
| Level 1— | quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities |
|---|---|
| Level 2— | observable market-based inputs (quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active) or inputs that are corroborated by observable market data |
| Level 3— | significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Company's assumptions and are not substantially supported by market data |
The Company didnot have any non-financial assets or non-financial liabilities recognized at fair value on a recurring basis at August 1, 2026 or January 31, 2026. At August 1, 2026 and January 31, 2026, the Company believes that the carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, and accounts payable approximate fair value, due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. The Company's debt obligations with a carrying value of$12,250 and$19,462 as of August 1, 2026 and January 31, 2026, respectively, are at variable interest rates. Borrowings under the Company's 2023 Revolving Credit Facility are recorded at carrying value, which approximates fair value due to the frequent nature of such borrowings and repayments. The Company considers this as a Level 2 input. The carrying values of the Company's Third Lien Credit Facility as of August 1, 2026 and January 31, 2026 approximate fair value, due to the variable rates associated with this obligation. The Company considers this a Level 3 input.
The Company's non-financial assets, which primarily consist of operating lease right-of-use ("ROU") assets and property and equipment, are not required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis and are reported at their carrying values. However, on a periodic basis whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be fully recoverable, non-financial assets are assessed for impairment and, if applicable, written down to (and recorded at) fair value. There wasno impairment of non-financial assets during thethree and six months ended August 1, 2026.
The inputs used in determining the fair value of the ROU assets are the current comparable market rents for similar properties and a store discount rate. The fair value of the property and equipment is based on its estimated liquidation value. The measurement of fair value of these assets are considered Level 3 valuations as certain of these inputs are unobservable and are estimated to be those that would be used by market participants in valuing these or similar assets.
Note 4. Long-Term Debt and Financing Arrangements
Debt obligations consisted of the following:
| August 1, | January 31, | |
|---|---|---|
| (in thousands) | 2026 | 2026 |
| Long-term debt: | ||
| Revolving Credit Facility | $2,950 | $10,700 |
| Third Lien Credit Facility | 9,300 | 8,762 |
| Total long-term debt | $12,250 | $19,462 |
2023 Revolving Credit Facility
On June 23, 2023, V Opco, entered into a new $85,000 senior secured revolving credit facility (the "2023 Revolving Credit Facility") pursuant to a Credit Agreement (the "2023 Revolving Credit Agreement") by and among V Opco, the guarantors named therein, Bank of America, N.A. ("BofA"), as Agent, the other lenders from time to time party thereto, and BofA Securities, Inc., as sole lead arranger and sole bookrunner. All outstanding amounts under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility were repaid in full and such facility was terminated pursuant to the terms thereof as a result of all parties completing their obligations under such facility.
The 2023 Revolving Credit Facility provides for a revolving line of credit of up to the lesser of (i) the Borrowing Base (as defined in the 2023 Revolving Credit Agreement) and (ii) $85,000, as well as a letter of credit sublimit of $10,000. The 2023 Revolving Credit Agreement also permits V Opco to request an increase in aggregate commitments under the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility of up to $15,000, subject to customary terms and conditions. The 2023 Revolving Credit Facility matures on the earlier of June 23, 2028, and 91 days prior to the earliest maturity date of any Material Indebtedness (as defined in the 2023 Revolving Credit Agreement), including the subordinated indebtedness pursuant to the Third Lien Credit Agreement.
Interest is payable on the loans under the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility, at Vince LLC's request, either at Term SOFR, the Base Rate, or SOFR Daily Floating Rate, in each case, with applicable margins subject to a pricing grid based on an average daily excess availability calculation. The "Base Rate" means, for any day, a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the highest of (i) the Federal Funds Rate for such day, plus 0.5%; (ii) the rate of interest in effect for such day as publicly announced from time to time by BofA as its prime rate; (iii) the SOFR Daily Floating Rate on such day, plus 1.0%; and (iv)1.0%.

The applicable margins for SOFR Term and SOFR Daily Floating Rate Loans are: (i)2.0% when the average daily Excess Availability (as defined in the 2023 Revolving Credit Agreement) is greater than 66.7% of the Loan Cap (as defined in the 2023 Revolving Credit Agreement); (ii)2.25% when the average daily Excess Availability is greater than or equal to 33.3% but less than or equal to 66.7% of the Loan Cap; and (iii)2.5% when the average daily Excess Availability is less than 33.3% of the Loan Cap. The applicable margins for Base Rate Loans are: (a)1.0% when the average daily Excess Availability is greater than 66.7% of the Loan Cap; (b)1.25% when the average daily Excess Availability is greater than or equal to 33.3% but less than or equal to 66.7% of the Loan Cap; and (c)1.5% when the average daily Excess Availability is less than 33.3% of the Loan Cap. In accordance with the First Amendment, from the First Amendment Effective Date (January 21, 2025) until the first Adjustment Date occurring after the twelve (12) month anniversary of the First Amendment Effective Date, the applicable margin will be 2.50% with respect to SOFR Term Loans and SOFR Daily Floating Rate Loans and 1.50% with respect to Base Rate Loans.
The 2023 Revolving Credit Facility contains a financial covenant requiring Excess Availability at all times to be no less than the greater of (i)10.0% of the Loan Cap in effect at such time and (ii) $7,500.
The 2023 Revolving Credit Facility contains representations and warranties, covenants and events of default that are customary for this type of financing, including limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness, liens, burdensome agreements, investments, loans, asset sales, mergers, acquisitions, prepayment of certain other debt, the repurchase of capital stock, transactions with affiliates, and the ability to change the nature of its business or its fiscal year. The 2023 Revolving Credit Facility generally permits dividends in the absence of any default or event of default (including any event of default arising from a contemplated dividend), so long as (i) after giving pro forma effect to the contemplated dividend and on a pro forma basis for the 30-day period immediately preceding such dividend, Excess Availability will be at least the greater of 20.0% of the Loan Cap and $15,000 and (ii) after giving pro forma effect to the contemplated dividend, the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the 2023 Revolving Credit Agreement) for the 12 months preceding such dividend will be greater than or equal to 1.0 to 1.0. In accordance with the First Amendment, V Opco shall not make certain Restricted Payments as defined in the Agreement until the earlier of (i) the date that is eighteen (18) month anniversary of the First Amendment Effective Date, which date is July 21, 2026 and (ii) the first date following the twelve (12) month anniversary of the First Amendment Effective Date on which the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is greater than or equal to 1.0 to 1.0.
All obligations under the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility are guaranteed by the Company and Vince Intermediate and any future subsidiaries of the Company (other than Excluded Subsidiaries as defined in the 2023 Revolving Credit Agreement) and secured by a lien on substantially all of the assets of the Company, V Opco and Vince Intermediate and any future subsidiary guarantors, other than among others, equity interests in ABG Vince, as well as the rights of V Opco under the License Agreement.
No financing costs were incurred during thethree and six months ended August 1, 2026 and August 2, 2025, respectively.
As of August 1, 2026, the Company was in compliance with applicable covenants. As of August 1, 2026,$63,571 was available under the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility, net of the Loan Cap, and there were$2,950 of borrowings outstanding and$5,160 of letters of credit outstanding under the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility. The weighted average interest rate for borrowings outstanding under the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility as of August 1, 2026 was 6.0%.
On January 22, 2025, V Opco, LLC entered into that certain First Amendment (the “First Amendment”) to the 2023 Revolving Credit Agreement. The First Amendment amends the 2023 Revolving Credit Agreement to, among other things, (a) consent to the P180 Acquisition (see Note 2 "Significant Transactions" for additional information); (b) provide that, until the first Adjustment Date following January 22, 2026, the applicable margin will be 2.50% with respect to SOFR Term Loans and SOFR Daily Floating Rate Loans and 1.50% with respect to Base Rate Loans; (c) eliminate the ability to make certain Restricted Payments until the earlier of (i) the date that is eighteen (18) month anniversary of the First Amendment Effective Date, which date is July 21, 2026 and (ii) the first date following the twelve (12) month anniversary of the First Amendment Effective Date on which the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is greater than or equal to 1.0 to 1.0; and (d) until January 22, 2026, modify the thresholds applicable for the Agent’s rights to conduct field exams and inventory appraisals to Excess Availability being less than the greater of 25% of Loan Cap and $18,750 and, following January 24, 2026, such thresholds shall revert back to Excess Availability being less than the greater of 20% of Loan Cap and $15,000.
On March 18, 2026, V Opco entered into the Second Amendment (the "2023 Revolving Credit Facility Second Amendment") to the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility which, among other things, (a) modified the definition of Eligible Trade Receivables in the 2023 Revolving Credit Agreement to increase concentration limits and (b) expanded the eligibility criteria for Accounts owed by certain customers that may be included in the Borrowing Base.
Third Lien Credit Facility
On December 11, 2020, V Opco entered into a $20,000 subordinated term loan credit facility (the "Third Lien Credit Facility") pursuant to a credit agreement (the "Third Lien Credit Agreement"), as amended from time to time, dated December 11, 2020, by and among V Opco, as the borrower, VHC and Vince Intermediate, as guarantors, and SK Financial Services, LLC ("SK Financial"), as administrative agent and collateral agent, and other lenders from time to time party thereto. The proceeds were received on December 11, 2020 and were used to repay a portion of the borrowings outstanding under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility.
SK Financial is an affiliate of Sun Capital Partners, Inc. ("Sun Capital"). The Third Lien Credit Facility was reviewed and approved by the Special Committee of the Company's Board of Directors, consisting solely of directors not affiliated with Sun Capital, which committee was represented by independent legal advisors. Immediately prior to the P180 Acquisition, the affiliates of Sun Capital owned approximately 67% of the Company's common stock.
Interest on loans under the Third Lien Credit Facility is payable in kind at a rate revised in connection with the Third Lien Third Amendment (as defined and discussed below) to be equal to the Daily Simple SOFR, subject to a credit spread adjustment of 0.10% per annum, plus 9.0%. During the continuance of certain specified events of default, interest may accrue on the loans under the Third Lien Credit Facility at a rate of 2.0% inexcess of the rate otherwise applicable to such amount.
The Company had incurred $485 in deferred financing costs associated with the Third Lien Credit Facility, of which a $400 closingfee is payable in kind and was added to the principal balance. These deferred financing costs were recorded as deferred debt issuance costs.

Additionally, in September 2020, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-8 to register an additional 1,000,000 shares of common stock available for issuance under the Vince 2013 Incentive Plan. On June 4, 2026, the Company’s stockholders approved an amendment (the “Share Increase Amendment”) to the Vince 2013 Incentive Plan to increase the maximum aggregate number of shares of common stock with respect to which awards may be granted thereunder from 2,000,000 to 3,000,000 shares. The shares available for issuance under the Vince 2013 Incentive Plan may be, in whole or in part, either authorized and unissued shares of the Company's common stock or shares of common stock held in or acquired for the Company's treasury. In general, if awards under the Vince 2013 Incentive Plan are canceled for any reason, or expire or terminate unexercised, the shares covered by such award may again be available for the grant of awards under the Vince 2013 Incentive Plan. As of August 1, 2026, there were 999,427 shares under the Vince 2013 Incentive Plan available for future grants. Effective June 8, 2026, the Share Increase Amendment provides for an additional 1,000,000 shares to be issued by the Company.

Note 7. Stockholders' Equity
At-the-Market Offering
On June 30, 2023, the Company entered into a Sales Agreement (the “Virtu Sales Agreement”) with Virtu Americas LLC ("Virtu"), as sales agent and/or principal (the "Virtu At-the-Market Offering") under which the Company was able to sell from time to time through Virtu shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.01 per share, having an offering price of up to $7,825, and any shares were to be issued pursuant to the Company's previously filed shelf registration statement on Form S-3, which was declared effective on September 21, 2021 (the “2021 S-3 Registration Statement”). Under the 2021 S-3 Registration Statement, the Company was able to offer and sell up to 3,000,000 shares of common stock from time to time in one or more offerings at prices and terms to be determined at the time of the sale.
Following the expiration of the 2021 S-3 Registration Statement, on September 23, 2024, the Company filed a replacement shelf registration statement on Form S-3, which was declared effective on October 3, 2024 (the "2024 S-3 Registration Statement"). Under the 2024 S-3 Registration Statement, the Company may offer and sell up to $10 million of shares of common stock from time to time in one or more offerings at prices and terms to be determined at the time of the sale. The 2024 S-3 Registration Statement also included a prospectus supplement, whereby the Company may offer and sell from time to time under the Virtu Sales Agreement shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share, having an aggregate offering price of up to $2,925.
During the three and six months ended August 1, 2026 and August 2, 2025, the Company didnot make any offerings or sales of shares of common stock under the Virtu At-the-Market Offering. At August 1, 2026, $861 was available under the Virtu At-the-Market Offering.
Note 8. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Except when the effect would be anti-dilutive, diluted earnings per share is calculated based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus the dilutive effect of share-based awards calculated under the treasury stock method. In periods when the Company incurs a net loss, share-based awards are excluded from the calculation of earnings per share as their inclusion would have an anti-dilutive effect.
The following is a reconciliation of weighted average basic shares to weighted average diluted shares outstanding:
| Three Months Ended | Six Months Ended | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| August 1, | August 2, | August 1, | August 2, | |
| 2026 | 2025 | 2026 | 2025 | |
| Weighted-average shares—basic | 12,891,384 | 12,906,045 | 12,868,995 | 12,863,100 |
| Effect of dilutive equity securities | 298,260 | 52,694 | 276,034 | 87,728 |
| Weighted-average shares—diluted | 13,189,644 | 12,958,739 | 13,145,029 | 12,950,828 |
For the three and six months ended August 1, 2026,150,533 and 87,266, respectively, of weighted average shares were excluded from the computation of weighted average shares for diluted earnings per share, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive. For thethree and six months ended August 2, 2025,522,638 and 182,809, respectively, of weighted average shares were excluded from the computation of weighted average shares for diluted earnings per share, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.
Note 9. Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
The Company is a party to legal proceedings, compliance matters, environmental, as well as wage and hour and other labor claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. Although the outcome of such items cannot be determined with certainty, management believes that the ultimate outcome of these items, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
IEEPA Tariff Refund
In February 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (“IEEPA”) on goods imported into the United States were unauthorized. The Company serves as the importer of record for certain products previously subject to IEEPA tariffs and paid approximately $13,700 in such tariffs since their inception. The U.S. Court of International Trade subsequently ordered U.S. Customs and Border Protection (“CBP”) to refund all collected IEEPA tariffs. The Company has complied with CBP’s prescribed administrative process through their Consolidated Administration and Processing of Entries (“CAPE”) system for seeking these refunds.
To account for potential recoveries of previously paid IEEPA tariffs, the Company applies a gain contingency model in accordance with ASC 450-30, Gain Contingencies. Under this model, a gain contingency is not recognized until the gain is realized or realizable, which is at the earlier of when U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) affirms the Company’s refund claim or the refund is received in cash. Any recovery, when recognized, would be reflected as a reduction of Inventory to the extent the related goods remain on hand, or as a reduction of Cost of goods sold for amounts related to goods already sold. As of August 1, 2026, the Company received cash refund payments of $13,448, including $488 in interest. Accordingly, the Company has recognized a corresponding offset to Cost of products sold of $10,368, Other income of $488, and an offset to Inventory of $2,592 in the condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six-month periods ended August 1, 2026. The Company continues to monitor these developments and their potential impact on our results of operations.
Contingencies
Beginning in 2020, the U.S. government enacted various relief packages in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, one of which was the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the "CARES Act"). The CARES Act included, among other items, provisions relating to refundable employee retention payroll tax credits. The Company applied for these employee retention tax credits relating to the first and second quarters of 2021. Due to uncertainties regarding approval by the Internal Revenue Service of the Company's eligibility for the credit and the complex nature of the Employee Retention Credit ("ERC") computations, the Company accounts for the ERC by analogy to ASC 450-30, Contingencies - Gain Contingencies. In accordance with ASC 450-30, the ERC is recognized after the related contingency is resolved and deemed realizable, which the Company has determined is upon receipt of payment and completion of any potential audit or examination or the expiration of the related statute of limitations.
In the second quarter of fiscal 2025, the Company received payments totaling $7,173 from the U.S. Department of the Treasury relating to the ERC for the first and second quarters of 2021, including $1,560 ininterest. As the related statute of limitations expired, the Company recorded the ERC benefit of $5,613 within Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses as an offset to compensation expense and recorded $1,560 as Other (income) in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for Fiscal 2025.
Note 10. Income Taxes
The Company provides for income taxes at the end of each interim period based on the estimated effective tax rate for the full fiscal year. Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (“IRC”) subjects the future utilization of net operating losses to an annual limitation in the event of certain ownership changes, as defined ("382 limitation"). The Company determined that under Section 382, the P180 Acquisition resulted in an ownership change in January 2025. Thus, the Company’s ability to offset current year taxable income with net operating loss carryforwards is limited.
The provision for income taxes for the three and six months ended August 1, 2026 is $3,139 and $2,731, respectively.
For the six months ended August 2, 2025, the Company had year-to-date ordinary pre-tax losses for the interim period and anticipated annual ordinary pre-tax income for the fiscal year. The Company determined that it is more likely than not that the tax benefit of the year-to-date ordinary pre-tax loss will not be realized in the current or future years and as such, tax provisions for the interim periods would not be recognized until the Company has year-to-date ordinary pre-tax income. The provision for income taxes of $58 for the three and six months ended August 2, 2025 represents a discrete tax expense recorded during the second quarter of fiscal 2025 relating to interest received in connection with the ERC.
Each reporting period, the Company evaluates the realizability of its deferred tax assets and has maintained a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets. The valuation allowance will be maintained until there is sufficient positive evidence to conclude that it is more likely than not that these deferred tax assets will be realized.
Note 11. Leases
The Company determines if a contract contains a lease at inception. The Company has operating leases for real estate (primarily retail stores, storage, and office spaces) some of which have initial terms of 10 years, and in many instances can beextended for an additional term, while certain recent leases are subject to shorter terms as a result of the implementation of the strategy to pursue shorter lease terms when evaluating certain markets. The Company will not include renewal options in the underlying lease term unless the Company is reasonably certain to exercise the renewal option. Substantially all of the Company's leases require a fixed annual rent, and most require the payment of additional rent if store sales exceed a negotiated amount. These percentage rent expenses are considered as variable lease costs and are recognized in the consolidated financial statements when incurred. In addition, the Company's real estate leases may also require additional payments for real estate taxes and other occupancy-related costs which it considers as non-lease components.
ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based upon the present value of the future lease payments over the lease term. As the Company's leases do not provide an implicit borrowing rate, the Company uses an estimated incremental borrowing rate based upon a combination of market-based factors, such as market quoted forward yield curves and company specific factors, such as the Company's credit rating, lease size and duration to calculate the present value.
Total lease cost is included in SG&A expense in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) and is recorded net of sublease income. Some leases have a non-cancelable lease term of less than one year and therefore, the Company has elected to exclude these short-term leases from its ROU asset and lease liabilities. Short term lease costs were immaterial for the three and six months ended August 1, 2026 and August 2, 2025. The Company's lease cost is comprised of the following:
| Three Months Ended | Six Months Ended | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| August 1, | August 2, | August 1, | August 2, | |
| (in thousands) | 2026 | 2025 | 2026 | 2025 |
| Operating lease cost | $5,764 | $5,765 | $11,443 | $11,445 |
| Variable operating lease cost | 67 | 29 | 149 | 94 |
| Sublease income | (216) | (216) | (432) | (432) |
| Total lease cost | $5,615 | $5,578 | $11,160 | $11,107 |
As of August 1, 2026, the future maturity of lease liabilities are as follows:
| August 1, | |
|---|---|
| (in thousands) | 2026 |
| Fiscal 2026 | $11,916 |
| Fiscal 2027 | 22,388 |
| Fiscal 2028 | 21,634 |
| Fiscal 2029 | 20,341 |
| Fiscal 2030 | 16,144 |
| Thereafter | 33,413 |
| Total lease payments | 125,836 |
| Less: Imputed interest | (23,609) |
| Total operating lease liabilities | $102,227 |
In fiscal 2024, the Company entered into a sublease with a third party for the 18th floor of the Company’s corporate offices in New York, NY, for a period ofthree years with no option to renew. In accordance with ASC Topic 842, the Company treated the sublease as a separate lease, as the Company was not relieved of the primary obligation under the original lease. The Company continues to account for the corporate office lease as a lessee and in the same manner as prior to the commencement date of the sublease. The Company accounted for the sublease as a lessor of the lease. The sublease was classified as an operating lease, as it did not meet the criteria of a sales-type or direct financing lease.
As of August 1, 2026, future minimum tenant operating lease payments remaining under this sublease were approximately $1,100, with a remaining sublease term of 1.2 years. Subsequently on August 7, 2026, an extension was signed with the sublessee. Inclusive of this extension, the future minimum tenant operating lease payments remaining under this sublease are approximately $7,600, with a remaining sublease term of 7.8 years.
The operating lease payments do not include any renewal options as such leases are not reasonably certain of being renewed as of August 1, 2026. As of August 1, 2026, there wereno leases signed but not yet commenced.
Note 12. Segment Financial Information
The Company has identifiedtwo reportable segments based on the information used by its chief operating decision maker (“CODM”). The CODM has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer. Management considered both similar and dissimilar economic characteristics, internal reporting and management structures, as well as products, customers, and supply chain logistics to identify the following reportable segments:
Vince Wholesale segment—consists of the Company's operations to distribute Vince brand products to major department stores and specialty stores in the United States and select international markets;
Vince Direct-to-consumer segment—consists of the Company's operations to distribute Vince brand products directly to the consumer through its Vince branded full-price specialty retail stores, outlet stores, and e-commerce platform.
The accounting policies of the Company's reportable segments are consistent with those described in Note 1 to the audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026 included in the 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The Company’s CODM evaluates segment performance based on several factors, including Income before income taxes and equity in net income of equity method investment. The CODM uses Income before income taxes and equity in net income of equity method investment as the key performance measure of segment profitability because it excludes the impact of certain items that our
CODM believes do not directly reflect our underlying operations, including the impact of income taxes and equity in net income of equity method investment. The CODM also considers budget-to-actual and period-over-period variances for this performance measure when making decisions about the allocation of operating and capital resources to each segment. Unallocated corporate expenses are comprised of SG&A expenses attributable to corporate and administrative activities (such as marketing, design, finance, information technology, and legal and human resource departments), transaction-related expenses, and other charges, including interest expense, that are not directly attributable to the Company's Vince Wholesale and Vince Direct-to-consumer reportable segments. Unallocated corporate assets are comprised of the carrying values of the Company's equity method investment and other assets that will be utilized to generate revenue for the Company's Vince Wholesale and Vince Direct-to-consumer reportable segments.
