Current report

Net sales during the thirteen weeks ended June 26, 2025 increased $81.0 million, or 7.1%, compared to the corresponding prior year period primarily due to sales from the 28 new warehouse-format stores that we opened since June 27, 2024 and an increase in comparable store sales of 0.4%. The comparable store sales increase during the period of 0.4%, or $4.5 million, was due to a 3.8% increase in comparable average ticket, partially offset by a 3.3% decrease in comparable transactions. Non-comparable sales increased $76.5 million from the corresponding prior year period primarily driven by new stores.

Current report

We believe the decreases in comparable transactions during the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 26, 2025 were largely driven by the impact of lower existing home sales. The increases in comparable average ticket during the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 26, 2025 were primarily due to changes in sales mix.

Current report

The increases in gross margin during the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 26, 2025 were primarily driven by a decrease in supply chain costs.

Current report

General and administrative expenses during the twenty-six weeks ended June 26, 2025 increased $4.1 million, or 3.1%, compared to the corresponding prior year period.

Current report

The increases in general and administrative expenses in total for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 26, 2025 were primarily driven by an increase of $3.5 million and $6.5 million, respectively, in personnel expenses, partially offset by a decrease of $2.1 million and $1.7 million, respectively, in other operating expenses. The decreases in general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 26, 2025 were primarily driven by decreases in other operating expenses and leverage of our general and administrative costs on higher net sales.

Current report

Pre-opening expenses during the thirteen weeks ended June 26, 2025 decreased $5.5 million, or 51.8%, compared to the corresponding prior year period.

Current report

Net interest expense during the thirteen weeks ended June 26, 2025 increased $0.4 million, or 62.3%, compared to the corresponding prior year period primarily due to a decrease in interest capitalized, partially offset by higher interest income as a result of higher cash balances.

Current report

Net interest expense during the twenty-six weeks ended June 26, 2025 was relatively flat compared to the corresponding prior year period.

Current report

Income tax expense was $31.4 million during the twenty-six weeks ended June 26, 2025 compared to $21.3 million during the twenty-six weeks ended June 27, 2024. The effective tax rate was 21.9% for the twenty-six weeks ended June 26, 2025 compared to 16.7% in the corresponding prior year period.

Current report

The effective tax rate increases during the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 26, 2025 were primarily due to decreases in excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation awards.

Previous wording

In fiscal 2024, approximately 73% of the products we sold were produced outside of the U.S., including around 18% from China. The current geopolitical environment, particularly related to existing and potential changes in global trade and tariffs, has created uncertainty surrounding the future state of the global economy and related impacts to our supply chain. In early 2025, the U.S. imposed significant additional tariffs on products from most countries where we source products, with further tariffs being considered. Although some of those tariffs were subsequently paused, it is unclear whether the pause will remain in place, and if so, for how long. Additionally, certain countries where we source products, such as China, either have imposed or are considering imposing new tariffs on U.S. products in response, resulting in potentially escalating tariffs from both the U.S. and its trading partners.

Previous wording

As we continue to manage the impact these tariffs may have on our business and the complexities of the various trade policy actions, we continue taking steps to mitigate some of the cost increases through negotiations with our vendors, sourcing from alternative countries, and increasing retail pricing as we deem appropriate. We also intend to continue to significantly decrease the amount of our products that are sourced from China. While we continue to mitigate the overall effect of increased tariffs, these tariffs have increased and will continue to increase our inventory costs and associated cost of sales, which may result in increased retail prices and may adversely impact sales. Furthermore, the broader impact of increased tariffs on the economy may negatively impact consumer demand, which may also have an adverse impact on sales.
