Substantially all of the Company’s operating assets and liabilities are held by Outlets.

Fiscal Year

The Company’s fiscal year is the 52- or 53-week period ending on the Thursday on or preceding December 31st. The fiscal years ended December 25, 2025 (“fiscal 2025”), December 26, 2024 (“fiscal 2024”), and December 28, 2023 (“fiscal 2023”) include 52 weeks. 52-week fiscal years consist of thirteen-week periods in each quarter of the fiscal year. When a 53-week fiscal year occurs, the Company reports the additional week at the end of the fiscal fourth quarter.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements requires management of the Company to make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amount of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of sales and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash consists of currency and demand deposits with banks.

Receivables

Receivables consist primarily of amounts due from credit card companies, vendor receivables, and commercial credit receivables. The Company typically collects its credit card receivables within three tofive business days of the underlying sale to the customer, while commercial credit receivables are typically collected within 40 days after the customer takes possession of the goods. The Company has agreements with a majority of its large merchandise vendors that allow for specified rebates based on purchasing volume. Generally, these agreements are on an annual basis, and the Company collects the majority of rebates earned each quarter subsequent to quarter end. Additionally, the Company has agreements with substantially all vendors that allow for the return of certain damaged or defective merchandise throughout the normal course of business. When inventory is identified to return to a vendor, it is removed from inventory and recorded as a receivable on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, and any variance between capitalized inventory cost associated with the return and the expected vendor reimbursement is expensed in cost of sales in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income when the inventory is identified to be returned to the vendor. The Company reserves for estimated uncollected receivables based on historical trends, which historically have been immaterial. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $1.7 million and $1.2 million as of December 25, 2025 and December 26, 2024, respectively.

Credit Program

Credit is offered to the Company’s customers through a proprietary credit card underwritten by third-party financial institutions at no recourse to the Company. The Company also offers limited credit to its commercial clients. The Company’s total credit exposure for receivables not insured by a third party at the end of fiscal years 2025 and 2024 was $13.0 million and $11.4 million, respectively.

Merchandise Inventories

Inventories consist of merchandise held for sale and are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. If the net realizable value of inventory falls below its cost, the difference is recorded in cost of sales in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income in the period in which it occurs. The Company determines inventory costs using the moving weighted average cost method. The Company capitalizes transportation, duties, and other costs to get product to its retail locations. The Company records reserves for estimated losses related to shrink, net realizable value, aged inventory, special order merchandise, and other amounts that are otherwise not expected to be fully recoverable. These reserves are calculated based on historical shrink, selling prices, margins, and current business trends. The estimates have calculations that require management to make assumptions based on the current rate of sales, age, salability, and profitability of inventory, historical percentages that can be affected by changes in the Company’s merchandising mix, customer preferences, and changes in actual shrink trends. These reserves totaled $18.4 million and $19.4 million as of December 25, 2025 and December 26, 2024, respectively.

Physical inventory counts and cycle counts are performed on a regular basis in each store and distribution center to ensure that amounts reflected in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets are properly stated. During the period between physical inventory counts in its stores, the Company accrues for estimated losses related to shrink on a store-by-store basis. Shrink is the difference between the recorded amount of inventory and the physical inventory. Shrink may occur due to theft or loss, among other things.

Fixed Assets

Fixed assets consist primarily of furniture, fixtures, and equipment, computer software and hardware, leasehold improvements (including those that are reimbursed by landlords as tenant improvement allowances), buildings and improvements, and land. The Company capitalizes interest on borrowings during the active construction period of certain capital projects. Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated utilizing the straight-line method over the assets’ estimated useful lives.

Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of (i) the original term of the lease, (ii) renewal term of the lease if the renewal is reasonably certain or (iii) the useful life of the improvement. The Company’s fixed assets are depreciated using the following estimated useful lives:

The cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets sold or otherwise disposed are removed from the accounts, and the related gain or loss is reported in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

Internal-Use Software Costs

The Company capitalizes certain costs related to the acquisition and development of internal-use software, which are included within fixed assets, net in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Capitalized internal-use software costs are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the software within selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. Costs related to internal-use software not meeting the criteria for capitalization are expensed as incurred.

Cloud Computing Arrangements

The Company capitalizes certain costs to implement cloud computing arrangements (“CCA”) that are service contracts hosted by third-party vendors. CCA implementation costs meeting the criteria for capitalization are included within other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are amortized using the straight-line method over the expected term of the related contract, which may include reasonably certain renewals. Amortization expense for capitalized implementation costs is presented in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income within SG&A expenses.

As of December 25, 2025 and December 26, 2024, CCA implementation costs included in other assets were $38.1 million and $7.5 million, respectively.

Goodwill and Other Indefinite-lived Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired. The Company does not amortize goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives resulting from business combinations but, in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other, does assess the recoverability of goodwill annually in the fourth quarter of each fiscal year, or more often if events occur or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of goodwill may not be recoverable. Such circumstances could include, but are not limited to, a significant adverse change in customer demand or business climate or an adverse action or assessment by a regulator. Each year, the Company may assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to complete quantitative impairment assessments. The Company hastwo reporting units, which are Floor & Decor Retail (“Retail”) and Spartan.

Impairment Assessment of Goodwill and Other Indefinite-lived Intangible Assets

The Company tests goodwill and its trade names, which are indefinite-lived intangible assets, for impairment annually in the fourth quarter of each fiscal year, or more often if events occur or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible assets may not be recoverable. The Company has the option to assess the value of its goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets under either a qualitative or quantitative approach. Under a qualitative approach, the Company evaluates various market and other factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the Company’s goodwill or other indefinite-lived intangible assets have been impaired. In performing the qualitative assessment, the Company considers the carrying value of each reporting unit compared to its fair value as well as events and changes in circumstances that could include, but are not limited to, a significant adverse change in customer demand or business climate, an adverse action or assessment by a regulator, and significant adverse changes in the price of the Company’s common stock. If such qualitative assessment indicates that impairment may have occurred, an additional quantitative assessment is performed by comparing the carrying value of the assets to their respective estimated fair values. If the recorded carrying value of goodwill or an other indefinite-lived intangible asset exceeds its estimated fair value, an impairment charge is recorded to write the asset down to its estimated fair value.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, the Company qualitatively assessed whether it was more likely than not that the goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets were impaired. Based on these assessments, the Company determined it was more likely than not that its goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets were not impaired as of October 24, 2025. No events or changes in circumstances have occurred since the date of the Company’s most recent annual impairment assessment that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount.

The Company’s goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets impairment assessments contain uncertainties because they require management to make significant judgments in estimating the fair value of the Company’s reporting unit and other indefinite-lived intangible assets and, if a quantitative assessment is deemed necessary, may include the projection of future cash flows, assumptions about which market participants are the most comparable, the selection of discount rates, and the weighting of the income and market approaches. These calculations contain uncertainties because they require management to make assumptions such as estimating economic factors, including the profitability of future business operations and, if necessary, the fair value of the reporting unit’s assets and liabilities. Further, the Company’s ability to realize the future cash flows used in its fair value calculations is affected by factors such as changes in economic conditions, changes in the Company’s operating performance, and changes in the Company’s business strategies. Significant changes in any of the assumptions involved in calculating these estimates could affect the estimated fair value of the Company’s reporting unit and indefinite-lived intangible assets and could result in impairment charges in a future period.

Long-lived Assets

Long-lived assets, such as fixed assets, operating lease right-of-use assets, and intangible assets with finite lives, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Conditions that may indicate impairment include, but are not limited to, a significant adverse change in customer demand or business climate that could affect the value of an asset, significant changes or planned changes in the Company’s use of an asset, a product recall, or an adverse action by a regulator. In accordance with ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment, the evaluation is performed at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are available that are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets or asset groups. If the sum of the estimated undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying value of the related asset or asset group, an impairment loss is recognized equal to the difference between carrying value and fair value.

Since there is typically no active market for the Company’s definite-lived intangible assets, the Company estimates fair value based on expected future cash flows at the time they are identified. When events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable, the Company estimates future cash flows based on store-level historical results, current trends, and operating and cash flow projections. Definite-lived intangible assets are amortized over their respective estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis, which the Company believes to be the amortization methodology that best matches the pattern of economic benefit that is expected from the assets. The useful lives of definite-lived intangible asset are evaluated on an annual basis.

Leases

The Company recognizes lease right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities for all operating leases on the balance sheet, excluding short-term leases (leases with terms of 12 months or less) as described under ASC 842, Leases(“ASC 842”). The majority of the Company’s long-term operating lease agreements include options to extend, which are also factored into the recognition of their respective assets and liabilities when appropriate based on management’s assessment of the probability that the options will be exercised. Lease payments are discounted using the rate implicit in the lease, or, if not readily determinable, a third-party secured incremental borrowing rate based on information available at lease commencement. The secured incremental borrowing rate is estimated based on yields obtained from Bloomberg for U.S. consumers with a BB credit rating and is adjusted for collateralization as well as inflation. Additionally, certain of the Company’s lease agreements include escalating rents over the lease terms, which, under ASC 842, results in rent being expensed on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease that commences on the date the Company has the right to control the property.

Insurance Reserves

The Company maintains insurance coverage with individual and aggregate limits for workers’ compensation and general liability claims above certain dollar amounts and is responsible for costs below these limits. The Company’s liabilities represent estimates of the ultimate cost for claims incurred, including loss adjusting expenses, as of the balance sheet date. The estimated liabilities are not discounted and are established based upon analysis of historical data, actuarial estimates, regulatory requirements, an estimate of claims incurred but not yet reported, and other relevant factors. Management utilizes independent third-party actuarial studies to help assess the liability on a regular basis.

Commitments and Contingencies

Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines, penalties, and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated.

Asset Retirement Obligations

An asset retirement obligation (“ARO”) represents a legal obligation associated with the retirement of a tangible long-lived asset that is incurred upon the acquisition, construction, development, or normal operation of that long-lived asset. The Company’s AROs are primarily associated with leasehold improvements that, at the end of a lease, the Company is contractually obligated to remove in order to comply with certain lease agreements. The ARO is recorded in other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and will be subsequently adjusted for changes in fair value. The associated estimated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset and depreciated over its useful life.

Changes in (i) inflation rates and (ii) the estimated costs, timing, and extent of future store closure activities each result in (a) a current adjustment to the recorded liability and related asset and (b) a change in the liability and asset amounts to be recorded prospectively. Any changes related to the assets are then recognized in accordance with the Company’s depreciation policy, which would generally result in depreciation expense being recognized prospectively over the shorter of the remaining lease term or estimated useful life.

As of December 25, 2025 and December 26, 2024, ARO assets included in fixed assets, net were $12.7 million and $13.6 million, respectively, and ARO liabilities included in other long-term liabilities were $21.6 million and $18.5 million, respectively.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company estimates fair values in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement(“ASC 820”). ASC 820 provides a framework for measuring fair value and requires disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. Additionally, ASC 820 defines levels within a hierarchy based upon observable and non-observable inputs. If the inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the category level is based on the lowest priority level input that is significant to the overall fair value measurement of the instrument.

•Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date;

•Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date; and

•Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own estimates about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Derivative Financial Instruments

Changes in interest rates impact the Company’s results of operations. In an effort to manage exposure to this risk, the Company enters into derivative contracts and may adjust its derivative portfolio as market conditions change. Derivative contracts are recognized at fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Unrealized changes in the fair value of hedged derivative instruments are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”) within the stockholders’ equity section of the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The effective portion of the gain or loss on effective cash flow hedges is reported as a component of AOCI and reclassified into earnings in the same period in which the hedged transaction affects earnings. To the extent that hedges are not highly effective, the ineffective portion of the hedge is immediately recognized in earnings. The Company performs an assessment of the effectiveness of its derivative contracts designated as hedges, including assessing the possibility of counterparty default. If it is determined that a derivative is no longer expected to be highly effective, hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively, and subsequent changes in the fair value of the hedge are recognized in earnings. See Note 8, “Derivatives and Risk Management” for additional information.

Business Combinations

The Company accounts for acquisitions in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”). The purchase price of an acquisition is measured as the aggregate fair value of the consideration transferred at the date of acquisition. The purchase price is allocated to the fair values of the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with any excess recorded as goodwill. These fair value determinations require judgment and may involve the use of significant estimates and assumptions. The purchase price allocation may be provisional during a measurement period of up to one year from the acquisition date to provide reasonable time to obtain the information necessary to identify and measure the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Only facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date are considered for subsequent adjustment to the purchase price allocation, and any such adjustment will be recognized in the period in which it is determined prior to completion of the measurement period. Transaction costs associated with acquisitions are expensed as incurred.

Revenue Recognition

In accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), revenue and cost of sales are recognized when the related performance obligations in contracts with customers are settled. Performance obligations for the Company’s retail store sales, as well as for orders placed through its website and shipped to customers, are satisfied at the point at which the customer obtains control of the inventory, which is typically at the point-of-sale. In some cases, merchandise is not physically ready for transfer to the customer at the point-of-sale, and revenue recognition is deferred until the customer has control of the inventory. Shipping and handling activities are accounted for as activities to fulfill the promise to transfer goods rather than as separate performance obligations as outlined within ASC 606. Payment is generally due from the customer immediately at the point-of-sale for both retail store sales and website sales. The nature of the goods offered primarily includes hard surface flooring and related accessories. The Company does not perform installation services, and free design services are offered in-store. The transaction price recognized in revenue represents the selling price of the products offered. Sales taxes collected are not recognized as revenue as these amounts are ultimately remitted to the appropriate taxing authorities.

The Company provides customers the right to return the goods sold to them within a reasonable time period, typically 90 days. The right of return is an element of variable consideration as defined within ASC 606. Reserves for future returns of previously sold goods are estimated based on historical experience and various other assumptions that management believes to be reasonable. These reserves reduce sales and cost of sales and establish a related return asset and refund liability as defined in ASC 606. The return asset is included within prepaid expenses and other current assets, and the refund liability is included within accrued expenses and other current liabilities, each respectively on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Merchandise exchanges of similar product and price are not considered merchandise returns and, therefore, are excluded when calculating the sales returns reserve.

Gift Cards and Merchandise Credits

The Company sells gift cards to customers and also issues merchandise credits in its stores. Gift cards and merchandise credits are accounted for by recognizing a liability at the time the gift card is sold or the merchandise credit is issued. The liability is relieved and revenue is recognized upon redemption. We recognize breakage revenue that is not subject to escheatment based on historical redemption patterns for the portion of gift card values that are not expected to be redeemed. Accordingly, in fiscal years 2025, 2024, and 2023, the Company recognized gift card breakage income related to unredeemed gift cards of $3.3 million, $7.7 million, and $5.1 million, respectively, within net sales in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

Loyalty Program

Our Pro Premier loyalty program allows customers to earn points through purchases in our stores and our website. Eligible transactions typically earn loyalty points at a rate ofone percent of the merchandise selling price. However, our high-volume customers may earn loyalty points at a rate ofthree percent. The Company defers the estimated standalone selling price of the loyalty points as a reduction to revenue and establishes a corresponding liability. The estimated selling price accounts for the portion of loyalty points expected to be redeemed. The loyalty program represents a material right to the customer as points may be redeemed on future purchases of Company merchandise, as well as goods and services fulfilled by third parties. Breakage for loyalty point rewards is estimated based on historical customer redemption patterns and may change in the future as the program matures.

Sales Returns and Allowances

The Company accrues for estimated sales returns based on historical results. The allowance for sales returns at December 25, 2025 and December 26, 2024, was $29.0 million and $28.4 million, respectively.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales consists of merchandise costs as well as freight, duty, and other costs to transport inventory to the Company’s distribution centers and stores. Cost of sales also includes costs for shrink, damaged product disposals, distribution, warehousing, sourcing, compliance, and arranging and paying for freight to deliver products to customers. The Company receives cash consideration from certain vendors related to vendor allowances and volume rebates, which is recorded as a reduction to the carrying value of inventory if the inventory is on hand and a reduction to cost of sales when the inventory is sold.

Vendor Rebates and Allowances

Vendor allowances consist primarily of volume rebates that are earned as a result of attaining certain inventory purchase levels and advertising allowances or incentives for the promotion of vendors’ products. These vendor allowances are accrued as earned and are estimated based on annual projections.

Vendor allowances are recorded as a reduction to the carrying value of inventory when earned and subsequently reduce cost of sales when the related product is sold. Certain incentive allowances that are reimbursements of specific, incremental, and identifiable costs incurred to promote vendors’ products are recorded as an offset against these promotional expenses.

SG&A expenses consist primarily of store and store support center wages, incentive compensation and benefits, store and store support center occupancy costs, depreciation and amortization, advertising costs, credit card fees, pre-opening costs, information technology costs, and other miscellaneous operating costs.

In the current year, the Company combined selling and store operating expenses, general and administrative expenses, and pre-opening expenses into SG&A expenses within the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

Advertising Expenses

The Company expenses advertising costs as the advertising takes place. Advertising costs incurred during the fiscal years ended December 25, 2025, December 26, 2024, and December 28, 2023 were $103.6 million, $108.2 million, and $112.1 million, respectively, and are included in SG&A expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

Pre-Opening Expenses

The Company accounts for operating expenditures incurred prior to opening a new store as SG&A expenses in its Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation, including employee stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, and employee stock purchase plans, in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation(“ASC 718”), which requires measurement of compensation cost for all stock awards at fair value on the date of grant and recognition of compensation, net of forfeitures, over the requisite service period for awards expected to vest. As necessary, the Company obtains independent third-party valuation studies to assist with determining the grant date fair value of employee stock awards. Stock-based compensation cost is recognized as expense over the requisite service period based on the number of years for which the requisite service is expected to be rendered. Refer to Note 11, “Stockholders’ Equity” for additional details related to the Company’s stock-based compensation awards.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the liability method in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes(“ASC 740”), which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and tax basis of existing assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Changes in tax laws and rates could affect recorded deferred tax assets and liabilities in the future. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax laws or rates is recognized in the period that includes the enactment date of such a change.

The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which the associated temporary differences became deductible. On a quarterly basis, the Company evaluates whether it is more likely than not that its deferred tax assets will be realized in the future and concludes whether a valuation allowance must be established.

The Company includes any estimated interest and penalties on tax-related matters in income taxes payable and income tax expense. The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions in accordance with ASC 740. ASC 740-10 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements using a two-step process for evaluating tax positions taken, or expected to be taken, on a tax return. The Company may only recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. In addition, the Company recognizes a loss contingency for uncertain tax positions when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Amounts recognized for uncertain tax positions require that management make estimates and judgments based on provisions of the tax law, which may be subject to change or varying interpretations. The Company includes estimated interest and penalties related to uncertain tax position accruals within accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and within income tax expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Codification Improvements. In March 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2024-02,“Codification Improvements - Amendments to Remove References to the Concepts Statements.”ASU No. 2024-02 removes references to various FASB Concepts Statements within the Codification. In the first quarter of fiscal 2025, the Company adopted ASU No. 2024-02 on a prospective basis. The adoption of ASU No. 2024-02 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.

Income Taxes. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09,“Income Taxes (Topic 740).”The amendments in this ASU improve the transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. Additionally, this ASU improves the effectiveness and comparability of disclosures by adding disclosures of pretax income (or loss) and income tax expense (or benefit) to be consistent with SEC Regulation S-X §210.4-08(h) and by removing disclosures that no longer are considered cost beneficial or relevant. In fiscal 2025, the Company adopted ASU No. 2023-09 on a retrospective basis. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows as the standard only impacts financial statement footnote disclosures. For additional information, refer to Note 6, “Income Taxes.”

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Interim Reporting. In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-11,“Interim Reporting (Topic 270).” ASU 2025-11 clarifies interim disclosure requirements and the applicability of Topic 270. This ASU adds a comprehensive list of required interim disclosures, clarifies the form and content of interim financial statements, and requires disclosure of events since the end of the previous annual reporting period that materially affect the entity.

The ASU was issued in response to the SEC’s August 2018 final amendments in Release No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification, that updated and simplified disclosure requirements that the SEC believed were duplicative, overlapping, or outdated. The guidance in ASU 2023-06 is intended to align GAAP requirements with those of the SEC and to facilitate the application of GAAP for all entities. The amendments introduced by ASU 2023-06 are effective if the SEC removes the related disclosure or presentation requirement from its existing regulations by June 30, 2027. If, by June 30, 2027, the SEC has not removed the applicable requirements from its existing regulations, the pending content of the associated amendment will be removed from the ASC and will not become effective for any entities. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2023-06 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.

2. Revenue

Net sales consist of revenue associated with contracts with customers for the sale of goods and services in amounts that reflect the consideration the Company is entitled to receive in exchange for those goods and services.

Deferred Revenue & Contract Liabilities

In accordance with ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue when the customer obtains control of the inventory. Amounts in deferred revenue at period-end reflect orders for which the inventory was not yet ready for physical transfer to customers.

Contract liabilities within the Consolidated Balance Sheets primarily consisted of deferred revenue as well as amounts in accrued expenses and other current liabilities related to the Pro Premier Rewards loyalty program and unredeemed gift cards. During fiscal 2025, the Company modified its loyalty program to include a redemption option that allows customers to redeem earned points for gift cards. As of December 25, 2025, contract liabilities totaled $77.9 million and included $57.9 million of loyalty program liabilities, $10.7 million of deferred revenue, and $9.3 million of unredeemed gift cards. As of December 26, 2024, contract liabilities totaled $20.2 million and included $13.2 million of deferred revenue and $7.0 million of unredeemed gift cards. Of the contract liabilities outstanding as of December 26, 2024, approximately $15.9 million was recognized in revenue during fiscal 2025.

As of December 25, 2025, the estimated future amortizable expense related to other intangible assets is $3.6 million for each of 2026, 2027, 2028, 2029, and 2030 and $9.9 million thereafter.

6. Income Taxes

The components of income tax expense are as follows:

The following is a summary of the differences in amounts and percentages between the federal statutory tax rate of 21% and the Company’s effective tax rate for each of the last three fiscal years:

(1)For fiscal 2025, California, New Jersey, and New York contributed to the majority of the tax effect in this category. For fiscal 2024, California and Texas contributed to the majority of the tax effect in this category. For fiscal 2023, California, Georgia, and Illinois contributed to the majority of the tax effect in this category.

(2)Includes state excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation awards for fiscal years 2025, 2024, and 2023 of $0.3 million, $2.1 million, and $1.8 million, respectively.

Cash paid for income taxes, net of refunds, consisted of the following:

The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of the deferred income tax assets and (liabilities) are presented below:

The Company utilizedno tax-effected state net operating losses in fiscal years 2025 and 2024. As of December 25, 2025, approximately $0.8 million of tax-effected state net operating losses were available to reduce future income taxes. The state net operating losses expire in various amounts beginning in fiscal 2034.

Pursuant to provisions under the Inflation Reduction Act, the Company purchased transferable federal tax credits during fiscal 2025. These federal tax credits were purchased at negotiated discounts, resulting in an income tax benefit recorded during the fiscal year ended December 25, 2025. Receivables associated with the transferable federal tax credits are recorded as an adjustment to income taxes payable.

In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, including net operating losses, management considered whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers taxable income in prior carryback periods, future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, tax planning strategies, and future taxable income exclusive of reversing temporary differences and carryforwards in making this assessment, and accordingly, has concluded thatno valuation allowance is necessary as of December 25, 2025 or December 26, 2024.

The Company files income tax returns with the U.S. Federal government and various state jurisdictions. Prior tax years beginning in fiscal year 2022 remain open to examination by the Internal Revenue Service. Foreign, state, and local income tax returns are generally subject to examination for a period of three to five years after filing of the respective returns.

There was no unrecognized tax benefits activity in fiscal 2023. The following is a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balance of unrecognized tax benefits for the periods presented:

As of December 25, 2025 and December 26, 2024, there were unrecognized tax benefits of $1.3 million and $0.8 million, respectively, that, if recognized, would affect the Company’s effective tax rate. The Company’s policy is to classify interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. The Company didnot recognize interest expense related to unrecognized tax benefits during fiscal years 2025, 2024, or 2023.

One Big Beautiful Bill Act

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted into law. The OBBBA contains numerous amendments to federal income tax provisions such as making key elements of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act permanent, including 100% bonus depreciation and domestic research cost expensing. The legislation has multiple effective dates, with certain provisions effective in 2025 and others implemented in later years. There was no material impact to the Company’s fiscal 2025 effective tax rate or consolidated financial statements. We have realized a reduction in our fiscal 2025 cash tax payments due to the above mentioned provisions.

7. Fair Value Measurements

As of December 25, 2025 and December 26, 2024, the Company had certain financial assets and liabilities on its Consolidated Balance Sheets that were required to be measured at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis. The estimated fair values of financial assets and liabilities such as cash and cash equivalents, receivables, prepaid expenses and other current assets, other assets, accounts payable, and accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate their respective carrying values as reported within the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Refer to Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” and Note 15, “Acquisition” for a discussion of the valuation of goodwill and intangible assets, respectively. See Note 10, “Debt” for discussion of the fair value of the Company’s debt.

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

As of December 25, 2025, the Company’s contingent earn-out liability had an aggregate estimated fair value of $0.8 million, which is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities within the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The contingent earn-out liability is classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy due to the use of unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation. For the fiscal year ended December 25, 2025, $0.4 million was recognized as a benefit in SG&A expenses within the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income due to a decrease in the fair value of the contingent earn-out liability. The table below summarizes changes in contingent earn-out liabilities during the fiscal year ended December 25, 2025:

In fiscal 2025, the Company adjusted the fair value of the contingent earn-out liability based on actual performance relative to performance period targets. The earn-out related to the fiscal 2025 performance period will be paid in the first quarter of fiscal 2026.

Interest Rate Cap Contract

The Company has an outstanding interest rate cap contract that was valued primarily using Level 2 inputs based on data readily observable in public markets. The Company’s interest rate cap contract was negotiated with a counterparty without going through a public exchange. Accordingly, the Company’s fair value assessment for the derivative contract gave consideration to the risk of counterparty default as well as the Company’s own credit risk. Refer to Note 8, “Derivatives and Risk Management” for additional details related to the Company’s interest rate cap contract.

Non-recurring Fair Value Measurements

Fair value measurements are made in connection with the Company’s acquisitions. Refer to Note 15, “Acquisition,” for additional details. There were no other assets or liabilities as of December 25, 2025 or December 26, 2024 that resulted from fair value measurements made on a non-recurring basis.

8. Derivatives and Risk Management

Interest Rate Risk

The Company’s exposure to market risk from adverse changes in interest rates is primarily associated with its long-term debt obligations, which carry variable interest rates. Market risk associated with the Company’s variable interest rate long-term debt relates to the potential negative impact to future earnings and cash flows from an increase in interest rates.

In an effort to manage exposure to the risk associated with variable interest rate long-term debt, the Company periodically enters into interest rate derivative contracts. These interest rate derivative contracts are used to convert the interest rate exposure on a portion of the Company’s debt portfolio from a floating rate to a capped rate and are designated as cash flow hedges.

Cash Flow Hedge

As of December 25, 2025 and December 26, 2024, the Company’s outstanding interest rate cap contract was designated as a cash flow hedge. The contract has a notional value of $150.0 million and effectively caps Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) based interest payments on a portion of the Company’s Term Loan Facility at 5.50% beginning in May 2024 and will continue until the interest rate cap contract expires in April 2026. The table below presents the location and fair value of the interest rate cap on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 25, 2025 and December 26, 2024:

Effects of the Company’s designated hedge contracts are as follows:

Credit Risk

The counterparty to the Company’s derivative contract is a financial institution with an investment grade credit rating. The Company periodically monitors the credit risk of its counterparty. The impact of credit risk, as well as the ability of each party to fulfill its obligation under the derivative financial instrument, is considered in determining the fair value of the contract. Credit risk has not had a significant effect on the fair value of the Company’s derivative contract. The Company’s derivative financial instrument does not have any credit risk-related contingent features or collateral requirements.

9. Commitments and Contingencies

Lease Commitments

The Company accounts for leases in accordance with ASC 842. The majority of the Company’s long-term operating lease agreements are for its retail locations, distribution centers, and corporate office, which expire in various years through 2055. Most of these agreements are retail leases wherein both the land and building are leased. The Company also has ground leases in which only the land is leased. The initial lease terms for the Company’s retail locations, distribution centers, and corporate office typically range from 10-20 years. The majority of the Company’s leases also include options to extend, which are factored into the recognition of their respective assets and liabilities when appropriate based on management’s assessment of the probability that the options will be exercised. Lease payments used in measurement of the lease liability typically do not include executory costs, such as taxes, insurance, and maintenance, unless those costs can be reasonably estimated at lease commencement. Certain of the lease agreements include escalating rents over the lease terms, which, under ASC 842, results in rent being expensed on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease that commences on the date the Company has the right to control the property. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any residual value guarantees or restrictive covenants that would reasonably be expected to have a material impact on the business.

When readily determinable, the rate implicit in the lease is used to discount lease payments to present value; however, substantially all of the Company’s leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. If the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable, the Company uses a third party to assist in the determination of a secured incremental borrowing rate, determined on a collateralized basis, to discount lease payments based on information available at lease commencement. The secured incremental borrowing rate is estimated based on yields obtained from Bloomberg for U.S. consumers with a BB credit rating and is adjusted for collateralization as well as inflation. As of December 25, 2025 and December 26, 2024, the Company’s weighted average discount rate was 6.0% and 5.8%, respectively. As of both December 25, 2025 and December 26, 2024, the weighted average remaining lease term of the Company’s leases was approximately 12 years.

Lease Costs

The table below presents components of lease expense for operating leases within the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income:

(1)Includes variable costs for common area maintenance, property taxes, and insurance on leased real estate.

(2)Excludes short-term lease costs, which were immaterial for the fiscal years ended December 25, 2025, December 26, 2024, and December 28, 2023.

Undiscounted Cash Flows

Future minimum lease payments under non-cancelable operating leases as of December 25, 2025 were as follows:

(1)Future lease payments exclude approximately $49.1 million of legally binding minimum lease payments for operating leases signed but not yet commenced.

(2)Operating lease payments include $288.7 million related to options to extend lease terms that are reasonably certain of being exercised.

For the fiscal years ended December 25, 2025, December 26, 2024, and December 28, 2023, cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of operating lease liabilities was $248.6 million, $213.6 million, and $194.0 million, respectively.

Litigation

On November 15, 2021, the Company was added as a defendant in a wrongful death lawsuit, Nguyen v. Inspections Now, Inc., No. 21-DCV-287142, in the 434th Judicial District Court of Fort Bend County, Texas. Bestview International Company was also named as a defendant in the case. The Company maintained insurance to cover liability arising out of this lawsuit up to the policy limits and subject to meeting certain deductibles and to other terms and conditions thereof. In 2022, the Company exhausted its deductible for this lawsuit. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, the Company and the plaintiff and intervenors settled the case and resolved all claims related to the lawsuit. The entire settlement amount was within our coverage limits, and our insurance carriers fully funded the settlement. Accordingly, there is no loss related to this settlement.

The Company is also subject to various other legal actions, claims, and proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, which may include claims related to general liability, workers’ compensation, personal injury, product liability, intellectual property, and employment-related matters resulting from its business activities. As with most actions such as these, an estimation of any possible and/or ultimate liability cannot always be determined. The Company establishes reserves for specific legal proceedings when it determines that the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome is probable and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. These various other ordinary course proceedings are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, cash flows, or results of operations. Regardless of the outcome, however, litigation can have an adverse impact on the Company because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources, and other factors.

10. Debt

The following table summarizes the Company’s long-term debt as of December 25, 2025 and December 26, 2024:

(1)The applicable interest rate for the Term Loan Facility as presented herein does not include the effect of the interest rate cap contract. Refer to Note 8, “Derivatives and Risk Management” for additional details related to the Company’s interest rate cap contract.

The following table summarizes scheduled maturities of the Company’s debt as of December 25, 2025:

Components of interest expense are as follows for the periods presented:

(1)Includes interest income related to the Company’s cash on hand and interest rate cap contracts. Refer to Note 8, “Derivatives and Risk Management” for additional details related to the Company’s interest rate cap contract.

Term Loan Facility

The Term Loan Facility bears interest at a rate equal to either (a) a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (1) the “Prime Rate,” (2) the U.S. federal funds rate plus 0.5% and (3) the one-month Term SOFR plus 1.0%, or (b) Adjusted Term SOFR, plus, in each case, the Applicable Margin (each term as defined in the Term Loan Facility credit agreement). The Applicable Margin for base rate loans will be between 1.00% and 1.25%, and the Applicable Margin for SOFR loans will be between 2.00% and 2.25% (subject to a floor of 0.00%), in each case, if the Company exceeds certain leverage ratio tests.

All obligations under the Term Loan Facility are secured by (1) a first-priority security interest in substantially all of the property and assets of Outlets and the other guarantors under the Term Loan Facility (other than the collateral that secures the ABL Facility on a first-priority basis), with certain exceptions, and (2) a second-priority security interest in the collateral securing the ABL Facility on a first-priority basis.

ABL Facility

As of December 25, 2025, the Company’s ABL Facility had a maximum availability of $800.0 million with actual available borrowings limited to the sum, at the time of calculation, of (a) eligible credit card receivables multiplied by the credit card advance rate, plus (b) the cost of eligible inventory, net of inventory reserves, multiplied by the applicable appraisal percentage, plus (c)85% of eligible net trade receivables, plus (d) all eligible cash on hand, plus (e)100% of the amount for which any eligible letter of credit must be honored after giving effect to any draws, minus certain Availability Reserves (each component as defined in the ABL Facility). The ABL Facility is available for issuance of letters of credit and contains a sublimit of $50.0 million for standby letters of credit and commercial letters of credit combined. Available borrowings under the facility are reduced by the face amount of outstanding letters of credit. The Company’s ABL Facility allows for the Company, under certain circumstances, to increase the size of the facility by an additional amount up to $200.0 million.

All obligations under the ABL Facility are secured by (1) a first-priority security interest in the cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, inventory, and related assets of Outlets and the other guarantors under the ABL Facility, with certain exceptions, and (2) a second-priority security interest in substantially all of the other property and assets of Outlets and the other guarantors that secure the Term Loan Facility on a first-priority basis.

As of December 25, 2025, net availability under the ABL Facility was $660.5 million as reduced by letters of credit of $38.1 million.

Covenants

The credit agreements governing the Term Loan Facility and ABL Facility contain customary restrictive covenants, which, among other things and with certain exceptions, limit the Company’s ability to (i) incur additional indebtedness and liens in connection with such indebtedness, (ii) pay dividends and make certain other restricted payments, (iii) effect mergers or consolidations, (iv) enter into transactions with affiliates, (v) sell or dispose of property or assets, and (vi) engage in unrelated lines of business. In addition, these credit agreements subject the Company to certain reporting obligations and require that the Company satisfy certain financial covenants, including, among other things, a requirement that if borrowings under the ABL Facility exceed 90% of availability, the Company will maintain a certain fixed charge coverage ratio (defined as Consolidated EBITDA less non-financed capital expenditures and income taxes paid to consolidated fixed charges, in each case as more fully defined in the ABL Facility).

The Term Loan Facility has no financial maintenance covenants. The Company is currently in compliance with all covenants under the credit agreements.

Deferred Debt Issuance Costs and Original Issue Discounts

Deferred debt issuance costs related to the ABL Facility were approximately $0.8 million as of December 25, 2025 and $1.2 million as of December 26, 2024 and are included in other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Deferred debt issuance costs and original issue discounts related to the Term Loan Facility were $2.0 million as of December 25, 2025 and $3.7 million as of December 26, 2024 and are included in term loan on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. For each of the fiscal years ended December 25, 2025, December 26, 2024, and December 28, 2023, deferred debt issuance and original issue discount amortization expense was $2.2 million and is included in interest expense, net on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

Fair Value of Debt

Market risk associated with the Company’s long-term debt relates to the potential change in fair value and negative impact to future earnings, respectively, from a change in interest rates. The aggregate fair value of debt is based primarily on the Company’s estimates of interest rates, maturities, credit risk, and underlying collateral. The estimated fair value and classification within the fair value hierarchy of the Term Loan Facility was as follows as of December 25, 2025 and December 26, 2024:

The Term Loan Facility fair value is classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy due to the use of unobservable inputs significant to the valuation, including indicative pricing from counterparties and discounted cash flow methods. No amounts were outstanding under the ABL Facility as of December 25, 2025 and December 26, 2024.

11. Stockholders’ Equity

Common Stock

The Company hasone class of common stock known as Class A. The holders of Class A common stock are entitled to share equally, on a per share basis, in dividends or other distributions. Class A common stockholders are entitled toone vote per share held. In the event of the voluntary liquidation or dissolution of the Company, Class A common stockholders will share equally, on a per share basis, in all the assets of the Company that are available for distribution to stockholders.

Stock Incentive Plans

On January 13, 2011, the Company adopted the 2011 Stock Option Plan (as amended, restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, the “2011 Plan”) to provide for the grant of stock options to employees (including officers), consultants, and non-employee directors of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Company ceased granting awards under the 2011 Plan upon the implementation of the 2017 Plan (as defined below).

On April 13, 2017, the board of directors approved the Floor & Decor Holdings, Inc. 2017 Stock Incentive Plan (as amended, restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, the “2017 Plan”), which was subsequently approved by the Company’s stockholders. The 2017 Plan authorizes the Company to grant equity awards, including options, restricted stock units, restricted stock awards, and other stock-based awards to eligible employees (including officers), consultants, and non-employee directors up to an aggregate of 9,000,000 shares of Class A common stock. As of December 25, 2025 and December 26, 2024, there were 4,679,225 and 4,952,065 shares available for grant pursuant to awards under the 2017 Plan, respectively.

Stock-based Compensation

In accordance with ASC 718, the Company measures compensation cost for all stock-based awards at fair value on the date of grant and recognizes compensation expense, net of forfeitures, using the straight-line method over the requisite service period of awards expected to vest, which for each of the awards is the service vesting period. Stock-based compensation expense within the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income for the fiscal years ended December 25, 2025, December 26, 2024, and December 28, 2023 was $29.5 million, $33.7 million, and $27.2 million, respectively.

Stock Options

Stock options are granted with an exercise price equal to the closing price of the Company’s Class A common stock on the date of grant, as authorized by the Company’s board of directors or compensation committee. Options granted have contractual terms often years and vesting provisions ranging fromone year tofive years. Stock option grants are generally subject to forfeiture if employment terminates prior to vesting. Stock option award grant date fair values were estimated using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. No stock options were granted during fiscal years 2025, 2024, and 2023.

The table below summarizes stock option activity for the fiscal year ended December 25, 2025:

The Company hadno unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options as of December 25, 2025.

The fair value of stock options vested during the fiscal years ended December 25, 2025, December 26, 2024, and December 28, 2023 was $0.5 million, $1.9 million, and $3.0 million, respectively. The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options exercised was $9.4 million, $42.2 million, and $37.9 million for the fiscal years ended December 25, 2025, December 26, 2024, and December 28, 2023, respectively.

Restricted Stock Units

The Company periodically grants restricted stock units (“RSUs”), each of which represents an unfunded, unsecured right to receive a share of the Company’s Class A common stock upon vesting. During the fiscal years ended December 25, 2025, December 26, 2024, and December 28, 2023, the Company granted RSUs to certain employees, executive officers, and non-employee directors comprised of service-based RSUs, performance-based RSUs, and total shareholder return (“TSR”) awards. Service-based RSUs vest based on the grantee’s continued service through the vesting date. The performance-based RSUs cliff vest based on (i) the Company’s achievement of predetermined financial metrics at the end of athree-year performance period and (ii) the grantee’s continued service through the vesting date. Depending on the performance-based RSU grant and the extent to which the relevant performance goals are achieved, the number of common shares earned upon vesting may range from 0% to 200% of the award granted. The TSR awards cliff vest based on (i) the Company’s relative TSR compared to a specified peer group and (ii) the grantee’s continued service through the vesting date. The number of common shares earned upon vesting of the TSR awards may range from 0% to 150% of the TSR awards granted with no vesting above the target awards amount if the Company’sthree-year absolute TSR is negative. The Company assesses the probability of achieving all performance goals on a quarterly basis. The service period for RSUs granted during the period varies by grantee and isone year from the grant date for non-employee directors and ranges betweentwo tofour years from the grant date for employees and executive officers.

The following table summarizes RSU activity during the fiscal year ended December 25, 2025:

The grant-date fair value of service-based RSUs and performance-based RSUs is based on the closing market price of the Company’s Class A common stock on the date of grant. The grant-date fair value of TSR awards is estimated using a Monte Carlo valuation method, which included the following assumptions for TSR awards granted during fiscal 2023:

The total unrecognized compensation cost related to RSUs as of December 25, 2025 was $40.1 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.8 years.

The weighted average grant date fair value per share of RSUs granted during the fiscal years ended December 25, 2025, December 26, 2024, and December 28, 2023 was $93.92, $115.08, and $91.86, respectively. The total fair value of RSUs that vested during the fiscal years ended December 25, 2025, December 26, 2024, and December 28, 2023 was $26.7 million, $26.7 million, and $13.7 million, respectively.

Restricted Stock Awards

Restricted stock awards are issued to certain executive officers and non-employee directors. The fair value of service-based restricted stock awards is based on the closing market price of the Company’s Class A common stock on the date of grant. Compensation cost for service-based restricted stock awards is recognized using the straight-line method over the requisite service period, which is the service vesting period, typically three tofour years. No restricted stock awards were granted during fiscal years 2025, 2024, and 2023. The following table summarizes restricted stock award activity during the fiscal year ended December 25, 2025:

The Company hadno unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted stock awards as of December 25, 2025.

The total fair value of restricted stock awards that vested during the fiscal years ended December 25, 2025, December 26, 2024, and December 28, 2023 was $0.3 million, $12.8 million, and $19.2 million, respectively.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”) is a tax-qualified plan under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code and permits eligible employees to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock through payroll deductions, subject to certain limitations. The Company has designated a purchase price per share of common stock acquired under the ESPP at the lesser of 90% of the lower of the fair market value of its common stock on either the first or last trading day of eachsix-month offering period. There are 1,500,000 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share, approved for issuance under the ESPP,78,187,58,665, and 83,686 of which were issued during fiscal years 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively. During fiscal years 2025, 2024, and 2023, the Company recognized stock-based compensation expense related to the ESPP totaling $1.3 million, $1.4 million, and $1.3 million, respectively.

12. Earnings Per Share

Net Income per Common Share

The Company calculates basic earnings per share by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding adjusted for the dilutive effect of share-based awards using the treasury stock method.

The following table shows the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the periods presented:

The following potentially dilutive securities were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share as a result of their anti-dilutive effect:

13. Supply Chain Finance

The Company facilitates supply chain finance programs through financial intermediaries, which provide certain suppliers the option to be paid by the financial intermediaries earlier than the due date on the applicable invoice. When a supplier utilizes one of the supply chain finance programs and receives an early payment from a financial intermediary, the supplier takes a discount on the invoice. The Company then pays the financial intermediary the full amount of the invoice on the original due date. The Company does not reimburse suppliers for any costs they incur for participation in the program. Supplier participation is voluntary, and there are no assets pledged as security or other forms of guarantees provided for the committed payment to the financial intermediaries. As a result, all amounts owed to the financial intermediaries are presented as trade accounts payable in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Amounts due to the financial intermediaries reflected intrade accounts payable at December 25, 2025 and December 26, 2024 were $133.2 million and $167.7 million, respectively.

The following table shows a rollforward of obligations confirmed and paid during fiscal years 2025 and 2024:

14. Segment Reporting

The Company operates as a multi-channel specialty retailer of hard surface flooring and related accessories and seller of commercial surfaces. The Company primarily sells hard surface flooring and related accessories through retail stores located in the United States and through its website.

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which discrete financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) for purposes of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance. The Company’s CODM, its Chief Executive Officer, reviews financial information about the Company’stwo operating segments, Retail and Spartan, for purposes of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance. The Spartan segment, which engages in selling commercial surfaces and is entirely comprised of the Company’s Spartan subsidiary, does not meet the materiality criteria of ASC 280, Segment Reporting (“ASC 280”), and is therefore not disclosed separately as a reportable segment. The Company files a consolidated income tax return and does not allocate income taxes and other corporate-level expenses, including interest expense, to Spartan.
