Savers Value Village Inc

Note 1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

Description of business

Savers Value Village, Inc., a Washington State based company, together with its wholly owned subsidiaries (the “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”), sells secondhand merchandise primarily in retail stores located in the United States (“U.S.”), Canada and Australia. Items that are unsuited for or unsold at retail stores are marketed to wholesale customers.

Basis of presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. These consolidated financial statements present the results of operations, financial position and cash flows of the Company in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).

The Company reports on a fiscal year basis, which ends on the Saturday nearest December 31. Fiscal year 2024 consisted of the 52 weeks ended December 28, 2024, fiscal year 2023 consisted of the 52 weeks ended December 30, 2023 and fiscal year 2022 consisted of the 52 weeks ended December 31, 2022. All amounts in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, with the exception of per share amounts, are rounded to the nearest thousand unless otherwise indicated.

Corporate Conversion

On January 7, 2022, S-Evergreen Holding LLC converted into a Delaware corporation and the name of the Company was changed to Savers Value Village, Inc. (the “Corporate Conversion”). In the Corporate Conversion, equityholders of S-Evergreen Holding LLC receivedone share of common stock of Savers Value Village, Inc. for each Class A Unit of S-Evergreen Holding LLC and corresponding adjustments were made to the Company’s outstanding equity awards.

Initial public offering

The registration statement related to our initial public offering (“IPO”) was declared effective on June 28, 2023, and our common stock began trading on the New York Stock Exchange on June 29, 2023. On July 3, 2023, we completed our IPO for the sale of 18.8 million shares of our common stock, $0.000001 par value per share, at a public offering price of $18.00 per share. Net proceeds to the Company from the IPO were $295.0 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of $22.8 million and offering expenses of $19.7 million.

In addition to the 18.8 million shares sold by the Company, certain funds, investment vehicles or accounts managed or advised by the Private Equity Group of Ares Management Corporation (the “selling stockholders”) sold 6.9 million shares, including 3.3 million shares pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option. The Company did not receive any proceeds from sales made by the selling stockholders.

Authorized shares

In connection with the Company’s IPO, the Company filed an amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the “A&R Charter”) on June 29, 2023. The Company also amended and restated its bylaws, effective as of June 28, 2023. The A&R Charter authorized 800.0 million shares of common stock, par value $0.000001 per share, and 100.0 million shares of preferred stock, par value $0.000001 per share.

Each share of common stock entitles its holder toone vote per share on all matters to be voted on by stockholders and to receive dividends when and as declared by the board of directors from legally available sources, subject to the prior rights of the holders of our preferred stock. Common stockholders are not entitled to preemptive rights and are therefore subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of shares of any series of preferred stock that the board of directors may designate and issue in the future. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, the assets legally available for distribution to the Company’s stockholders would be distributable ratably among the holders of common stock and any participating preferred stock outstanding at that time after payment of liquidation preferences, if any, on any outstanding shares of preferred stock and payment of claims of creditors.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Use of estimates

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. These estimates are based on available information and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Certain items subject to such estimates and assumptions include, but are not limited to, the valuation of insurance reserves, impairment assessments associated with our goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, and income taxes. Actual results could vary from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Foreign currency

The functional currency of the Company’s foreign entities is the local currency of the country in which the entity operates. Assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into U.S. dollars, the reporting currency of Savers Value Village, Inc., using rates of exchange in effect at the end of the reporting period. The net gain or loss resulting from translation is shown as a foreign currency translation adjustment and is included in other comprehensive(loss) income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehe nsive Income andin accumulated other comprehensive income on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Income and expense accounts of the Company’s foreign entities are translated into U.S. dollars using average rates of exchange during the reporting period.

(Loss) gain on foreign currency, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income comprises realized gains and losses upon settlement of foreign currency transactions, remeasurement gains and losses on unsettled foreign currency transactions, and realized and unrealized gains and losses on cross currency swaps and forward contracts (see Note 10. Derivative Financial Instruments). Realized and unrealized gains and (losses) on foreign currency transactions totaled $27.3 million in fiscal year 2024, $9.8 million in fiscal year 2023 and $(30.0) million in fiscal year 2022.

Foreign currency gains and losses relating to intercompany loans issued by or to foreign subsidiaries are not eliminated during consolidation and are included in (loss) gain on foreign currency, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

Revenue recognition

Retail sales. Revenue is recorded for store sales upon the purchase of merchandise by customers. Sales taxes collected from customers are not considered revenue and are included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets until remitted to the taxing authorities.

Revenue is recorded net of coupons, promotional discounts and sales discounts under reward programs. Revenue from gift cards is recognized upon redemption, and estimated breakage is recognized based on redemption data. The Company accounts for outstanding gift card balances as a liability, net of estimated breakage. Gift card liabilities are included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company does not record a sales return reserve as no right of return exists for customers.

Wholesale sales. Sales of products are recognized at the point of delivery with no right of return and exclude shipping and handling costs, which are paid by the customer. The Company’s revenue arrangements do not contain a significant financing component.

The following table disaggregates our revenue by retail and wholesale for the periods presented:

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash, demand deposits with banks, proceeds due from credit and debit card transactions and money market funds with maturity dates of three months or less from the date of purchase. The carrying amounts reported for cash and cash equivalents are considered to approximate fair value based upon their short maturities.

The Company’s cash deposits are maintained in accounts primarily withtwo major financial institutions in the U.S. and Canada. Substantially all cash on deposit exceeds the federally insured limits for such deposits. Money market funds are invested in a single fund that invests in U.S. Government and U.S. Treasury securities.

Trade accounts receivable

Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount, net of any allowances. Both trade accounts receivable and the allowance for credit losses relate to wholesale sales.

Inventories

Inventories consist almost entirely of used clothing and other household goods purchased from nonprofit partners. Inventory is valued at the lower of average purchase cost or net realizable value. The allowance for excess inventory as of December 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023 was immaterial.

Property and equipment

Property and equipment are stated at historical cost net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from 3 to 15 years for furniture, fixtures and equipment. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of 7 years or the remaining lease term.

Long-lived assets

The carrying values of long-lived assets, consisting of property and equipment, right-of-use lease assets and long-lived intangible assets, are reviewed for impairment when store performance expectations, events or changes in circumstances - such as a decision to relocate or close a store, office or distribution center - indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. When testing for impairment, we group assets and liabilities at the lowest level for which cash flows are separately identifiable - which is primarily at the individual store level. We then assess the risk of impairment by comparing an estimate of the undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset group against the carrying value of the asset group (the “recoverability test”). Impairment is indicated when the carrying value of the asset group exceeds the estimated future undiscounted cash flows generated by those assets. When impairment is indicated and the fair value of the asset group is determined to be less than the carrying value of the asset group, the Company records an impairment charge equal to the amount by which the carrying value of the asset group exceeds the asset group’s fair value. Performing the recoverability test requires management to make judgments relating to future cash flows, growth rates and economic and market conditions. Depending on the asset class, estimated fair value may be determined either by the use of a discounted cash flow model and/or by reference to estimated selling prices of assets in similar condition.

In fiscal year 2024, the Company recorded an impairment charge on itslong-lived assets of $4.3 million which was recorded in selling, general and administrative in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehe nsive Income. In fiscal years 2023 and 2022, no triggering events were identified andno impairment charges were recorded on the Company’s long-lived assets.

Goodwill

Goodwill is reviewed for impairment annually in the Company’s fourth quarter and whenever circumstances indicate goodwill might be impaired. The Company has the option of performing a qualitative assessment that involves evaluating relevant events and circumstances to determine whether it is more likely than not (i.e. a likelihood of greater than 50%) that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If not, no further impairment testing is performed. If the assessment indicates that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the Company performs a quantitative assessment by comparing the carrying value of the reporting unit to the estimated fair value of the reporting unit, both as of the testing date. If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds the estimated fair value, the Company will recognize an impairment charge equal to the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the reporting unit’s estimated fair value up to but not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit.

While the Company generally performs a qualitative assessment, we may choose periodically to forgo the qualitative assessment and proceed directly to a quantitative analysis. Factors considered in determining whether to forgo the qualitative assessment and proceed directly to the quantitative analysis include the significance of the excess of a reporting unit’s estimated fair value over its carrying value at the last quantitative assessment date, the amount of time between quantitative assessments, the desirability of establishing an updated baseline quantitative analysis, and other performance and market indicators.

The Company’s reporting units are consistent with its operating segments, with goodwill balances allocated entirely to the U.S. Retail and Canada Retail reporting units. No goodwill impairment was recorded during fiscal years 2024, 2023 and 2022.

Intangible assets

Intangible assets represent the Company’s trade names, trademarks and charity licensing agreements. The Company’s trade names and trademarks, which have indefinite lives, are not amortized, but rather, reviewed for impairment at least annually in the fourth quarter, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired. Charity licensing agreements are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful life, which is usually 15 years.

No impairment of intangible assets was recorded during fiscal years 2024, 2023 and 2022.

Insurance reserves

The Company is self-insured for general liability, medical and workers’ compensation and regularly reviews the related insurance reserves and adjusts the balances as necessary. Self-insurance claims filed and claims incurred-but-not-reported are accrued based on management’s estimates of cost by considering historical claims experience, demographic factors, severity factors and other actuarial assumptions. Additionally, the Company reviews specific large insurance claims to determine whether there is a need for any additional accruals. Changes in these assumptions could materially impact the required reserve balances and it is possible that the Company’s actual loss experience could differ materially from recorded insurance reserves.

Advertising costs

Advertising production costs and media placement costs are expensed the first time the advertisement takes place. Total advertising costs during fiscal years 2024, 2023 and 2022 were $10.7 million, $9.0 million and $11.9 million, respectively, and are included in selling, general and administrative in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

Income taxes

The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the consolidated financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce deferred income tax assets to the amount more likely than not expected to be realized. Income tax expense represents the current expense incurred for the period plus or minus the change during the period in net deferred tax assets and liabilities.

Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code and similar state regulations, contain provisions that may limit the net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards and other tax attributes available to be used to offset income and tax liabilities in any given year upon the occurrence of certain events, including changes in ownership of more than 50%.

The Company recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not to be sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount of the benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company records interest related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense, net and penalties in income tax expense (benefit) in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

Stock-based compensation

The Company’s stock-based incentive plan allows for the issuance of various types of stock-based awards, including time-based options, performance-based options and restricted stock units (“RSUs”). Options are generally granted with an exercise price equal to the fair value of our common stock at the date of grant. Prior to July 3, 2023, the date we completed our IPO, the fair value of our common stock was established by the Board at the date of grant. Upon completion of our IPO, the fair value of our common stock is determined based on the closing price of our common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the date of grant.

We estimate the fair value of time-based options using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. We also used the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model to determine the grant-date fair value of performance-based options that were tied to the Company’s IPO, and a Monte Carlo simulation under the option pricing framework to determine the grant-date fair value of performance-based options subject to market-specific conditions.

We recognize expense for time-based options on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the awards. We recognize expense for performance-based options subject to Company-specific conditions when it is probable that performance conditions will be achieved, and recognize the expense on a graded vesting basis over the expected vesting period. For performance-based options subject to market-specific conditions, expense is recognized on a graded vesting basis over the expected vesting period and is recognized regardless of whether the market-specific conditions are achieved.

The fair value of RSUs is estimated based on the fair value of our common stock on the date of grant. RSUs are recognized in compensation expense over the service period, which is generally the vesting period. For a more detailed discussion of stock-based compensation, see Note 13. Stock-Based Compensation.

Share repurchases

Repurchased shares are retired and the excess of cost over par value is recorded as an increase in accumulated deficit.

Derivative instruments

In the normal course of business, the Company may use derivative financial instruments, including interest rate swaps, cross currency swaps and foreign exchange forwards, to hedge against fluctuations in interest rates or foreign exchange rates thereby reducing our exposure to variability in cash flows on our floating-rate debt or from foreign operations.

Derivative instruments are measured at fair value and classified as assets or liabilities, current or non-current, depending on the settlement dates of the individual contracts. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative depends on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation.

Derivative instruments that are not designated as hedges are intended to economically hedge a portion of our foreign exchange risk. All gains and losses on these economic hedges are recorded immediately in (loss) gain on foreign currency, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

For derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges, unrealized gains and losses from changes in fair value are initially reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are reclassified to interest expense, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable-rate debt. For derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges, realized gains and losses from monthly settlement are a component of interest expense, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

Realized gains and losses on interest rate swaps with an other-than-insignificant financing element at inception are reported within cash flows from financing activities on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Realized gains and losses on interest rate swaps without an other-than-insignificant financing element at inception are reported within cash flows from operating activities on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Realized gains and losses on cross currency swaps and forward contracts are reported within cash flows from investing activities on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

The Company does not use derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes and does not use any leveraged derivative financial instruments.

Leases

The Company leases various real estate, including retail stores, offsite processing facilities, wholesale warehouses and office space, as well as vehicles. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in right-of-use (“ROU”) lease assets, lease liabilities – current and lease liabilities – non-current in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 28, 2024, finance leases of $8.5 million, $2.7 million and $5.7 million were included inproperty and equipment, net, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, andother liabilities, respectively, in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet and are expensed as paid.

Our lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of the fixed lease payments over the lease term. As an implicit rate is not provided for most of our leases, we use an incremental borrowing rate which represents the rate used for a secured borrowing of a similar term as the lease. Our real estate leases typically require payment of real estate taxes, common area maintenance and insurance. These components comprise the majority of our variable lease costs and are excluded from the present value of our lease obligations.

The Company’s leases have remaining lease terms of greater than 1 year to 21 years. The lease term includes the initial contractual term as well as any options to extend the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. The option periods are generally not included in the lease term used to measure our lease liabilities and lease assets upon commencement as exercise of the options is not reasonably certain. We remeasure the lease liability and lease asset when we are reasonably certain to exercise a renewal option. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

Note 3. 2 Peaches Acquisition

On May 6, 2024, the Company acquired all of the equity of 2 Peaches Group, LLC (“2 Peaches”) for $5.4 million, which is comprised of cash consideration of $3.5 million, including a holdback of $0.5 million, and acquisition-related contingent consideration with an initial fair value of $1.9 million (the “2 Peaches Acquisition”). 2 Peaches is a thrift store chain with seven locations in the Atlanta, Georgia, metropolitan area. The acquired stores are the Company’s first locations in the state of Georgia and will serve as a base for the Company’s entrance and expansion into the southeast region of the U.S.

The 2 Peaches Acquisition was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Topic 805, Business Combinations, and the purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed based on their fair value at the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill, which is deductible for income tax purposes. Under the acquisition method, the consolidated financial statements of the Company include the operations of 2 Peaches from the acquisition date.

Goodwill arising from the acquisition amounted to less than $0.1 million. Goodwill was allocated to the U.S. Retail reporting unit. The fair value of assets acquired was $12.5 million, which primarily comprised $8.5 million for right-of-use assets, $2.9 million for a charity licensing agreement, $0.5 million for inventory, $0.4 million for property and equipment, and $0.1 million of cash. The charity licensing agreement was fully amortized during fiscal year 2024. The fair value of liabilities assumed was $7.1 million.

The acquisition-related contingent consideration arrangement with an initial fair value of $1.9 million requires us to make a future cash payment of up to $2.7 million upon achievement of specific milestones; the associated liability is classified in other liabilities in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. See Note 8. Fair Value Measurements, for information related to the fair value of the contingent consideration.

We have not presented pro forma results of operations including 2 Peaches since their results of operations are not material to our consolidated financial results.

Note 4. Property and Equipment

Property and equipment, net, consisted of the following:

Depreciation expense for fiscal years 2024, 2023 and 2022 was $61.3 million, $56.0 million and $49.6 million, respectively.

Note 5. Goodwill

Changes in the carrying value of goodwill by reportable segments were as follows:

Note 6. Intangible Assets

The components of intangible assets were as follows:

The amortization expense associated with intangible assets was $8.3 million, $5.2 million and $6.1 million for fiscal years 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The estimated aggregate amortization expense of intangible assets for each of the five years commencing after December 28, 2024 is $4.3 million.

Note 7. Indebtedness

Long-term debt consisted of the following:

In 2023, the Company used the net proceeds from its IPO, the net proceeds from issuing $550.0 million aggregate principal amount of Senior Secured Notes (the “Notes”) and cash on hand, in whole or in part, to repay $485.8 million in outstanding borrowings on its Term Loan Facility and $55.0 million aggregate principal amount of its Notes, resulting in a loss on extinguishment of debt of $16.6 million. Proceeds from the February 2023 Notes issuance were also used to pay a $262.2 million dividend and a $23.6 million one-time bonus to certain employees and directors participating in our management equity incentive plan who were unable to participate in the dividend. The bonus was recorded in salaries, wages and benefits in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

On January 30, 2024, the Company entered into the third amendment to its Senior Secured Credit Facilities resulting in a loss on extinguishment of debt of $0.7 million. On March 4, 2024, the Company redeemed $49.5 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes, equal to 10% of the outstanding balance at December 30, 2023. In addition to paying accrued interest, the Company paid a premium of 3%, or $1.5 million, on the partial redemption. This transaction resulted in a loss on extinguishment of debt of $3.4 million.

On February 6, 2025, the Company redeemed $44.5 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes, equal to 10% of the outstanding balance at December 28, 2024. In addition to paying accrued interest, the Company paid a premium of 3%, or $1.3 million, on the partial redemption. This transaction resulted in a loss on extinguishment of debt of $2.7 million.

Senior Secured Notes

The Notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 9.75% with interest due every February 15 and August 15. As of December 28, 2024, the Company had a $16.1 million balance for accrued interest on the Notes, which is classified in accounts payable & accrued liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Notes are due in full at maturity in April 2028, coterminous with the Term Loan Facility. The Company’s principal subsidiaries in the U.S. are issuers of the Notes. The Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a senior secured basis by most of the Company’s U.S. and Canadian subsidiaries (other than the issuers). The Notes are secured by a first priority lien on substantially all assets of the issuers and guarantors, subject to certain exceptions, on an equal and ratable basis with indebtedness under the Term Loan Facility. The Notes rank pari passu with the Term Loan Facility in right of payment and are subordinated to our existing super-priority Revolving Credit Facility in right of payment.

We may redeem the Notes in whole or in part at the redemption prices set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest:

If a change in control occurs, we will be required to repurchase the Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest.

The indenture, pursuant to which the Notes were issued, contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, which are similar in scope to those in the Senior Secured Credit Facilities (see below), although there are no financial maintenance covenants in the indenture governing the Notes. Certain covenants may be suspended in the event the Notes are assigned an investment grade rating from two of three rating agencies.

Senior Secured Credit Facilities

The Senior Secured Credit Facilities consist of a term loan facility (“Term Loan Facility”) and a revolving credit facility (“Revolving Credit Facility”). The Company’s principal subsidiaries in the U.S. and Canada are borrowers under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities and most of the Company’s U.S. and Canadian subsidiaries are guarantors. The Senior Secured Credit Facilities are secured by a first priority lien on substantially all assets of the borrowers and guarantors, subject to certain exceptions. The Revolving Credit Facility is senior to the Term Loan Facility in right of payment.

The Senior Secured Credit Facilities have customary affirmative and negative covenants, including restrictions on our ability to incur additional indebtedness, incur liens, make investments, make restricted payments (including restrictions on the payment of dividends), make optional prepayments on junior financings, engage in transactions with affiliates and make asset sales, in each case subject to customary exceptions and baskets.

The Senior Secured Credit Facilities also have a customary uncommitted incremental facility of (i) the greater of $136.0 million or EBITDAfor the prior four fiscal quarters plus (ii) additional amounts based on the Company’s net leverage ratio or interest coverage ratio plus (iii) certain specific additional amounts.

Term Loan Facility

Borrowings under the Term Loan Facility are due in full at maturity in April 2028. The Term Loan Facility bears interest at a variable rate equal to a reference rate plus a margin ranging from 2.50% to 3.75% based on loan type and our first lien net leverage ratio.

The Company is required to prepay the Term Loan Facility with a percentage of the Company’s annual excess cash flow if the first lien net leverage ratio is greater than or equal to 3.50 to 1.00. The Company is also required to prepay the Term Loan Facility with a percentage of the net cash proceeds of certain asset sales, subject to customary reinvestment provisions, when the first lien net leverage ratio is greater than or equal to 3.50 to 1.00. The Company is able to prepay amounts outstanding under the Term Loan Facility without a prepayment premium.

Revolving Credit Facility

The Revolving Credit Facility matures in April 2027. The maximum available amount under the Revolving Credit Facility is $125.0 million, with $60.0 million available for letters of credit and a swingline sublimit of $10.0 million. As of December 28, 2024, there were no advances on the Revolving Credit Facility, there were $1.2 million of letters of credit outstanding and $123.8 million was available to borrow.

The interest rate on revolver draws is variable at a rate equal to the reference rate plus a margin of 2.25% or 3.25% based onloan type. A 0.5% commitment fee is payable quarterly on the unused portion of the Revolving Credit Facility.

The Revolving Credit Facility is subject to a financial maintenance covenant that requires us to ensure the first lien net leverage ratio, which is tested quarterly, does not exceed 7.75 to 1.00. The financial maintenance covenant is only applicable if the aggregate amount of revolving loans, swingline loans and letters of credit outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility (excluding up to$20 million of undrawn letters of credit and certain other amounts) exceeds 35% of the committed amount. The Revolving Credit Facility provides for customary equity cure rights.

Note 8. Fair Value Measurements

The Company utilizes fair value measurements for its financial assets and financial liabilities and fair value measurements of nonfinancial items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. Fair value is based upon a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to measurements involving significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

•Level 1 inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

•Level 2 inputs are inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

•Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

The level in the fair value hierarchy within which a fair value measurement in its entirety falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Recurring fair value measurements

The following table presents financial assets and financial liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 28, 2024:

The following table presents financial assets and financial liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 30, 2023:

There were no transfers of financial assets or liabilities between Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 for fiscal year 2024 or fiscal year 2023.

Money market funds, consisting of short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less, are valued based on quoted market prices of identical assets and are classified within Level 1. Interest rate swaps, cross currency swaps and forward contracts are fair valued using independent valuation services, and the valuations are based on observable market data. As such, the interest rate swaps, cross currency swaps and forward contracts are classified within Level 2. The Company reviews the independent valuation and obtains an understanding of the methods used in pricing the instruments.

The fair value of the acquisition-related contingent consideration liability is measured using the probability-weighted present value of the potential payment. The probability-weighted present value of the potential payment is based on significant unobservable inputs, including management estimates and assumptions. Accordingly, the fair value of the acquisition-related contingent consideration is classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy.

The following table provides quantitative information regarding Level 3 inputs used in the fair value measurement of the acquisition-related contingent consideration liability as of December 28, 2024:

The following table provides a reconciliation of the acquisition-related contingent consideration liability measured at fair value using Level 3 significant unobservable inputs:

Non-recurring fair value measurements

The Company’s non-financial assets, such as goodwill, intangible assets, property and equipment, and ROU lease assets, are recorded at cost. Fair value adjustments are made to these non-financial assets in the period an impairment charge is recognized. In fiscal year 2024, the Company recognized impairment charges of $2.5 million on ROU lease assets and $1.8 million on property and equipment which are recorded in selling, general and administrative in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. Fair value of these assets was determined using discounted cash flow models based on significant unobservable inputs, including projected store-level cash flows, discount rates and market rental data. Accordingly, the fair value of these assets are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy.

Other fair value disclosures

The fair value of the Company’s Senior Secured Notes, based on Level 1 inputs, was $467.6 million and $525.5 million at December 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023, respectively. The fair value of borrowings under the Company’s Senior Secured Credit Facilities approximate their carrying value as the current rates approximate rates on similar debt and were based on rate notices provided by the Administrative Agent (Level 2 inputs) at December 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023.

Note 9. Leases

The components of total lease costs, net, consisted of the following:

The maturities of our lease obligations at December 28, 2024 were as follows:

Supplemental cash flow information related to leases is as follows:

Supplemental balance sheet information related to leases is as follows:

Note 10. Derivative Financial Instruments

As a result of its operating and financing activities, the Company is exposed to market risks from changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. These market risks may adversely affect the Company’s operating results, cash flows and financial position. The Company seeks to manage risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates through the use of forward contracts or cross currency swaps or both, and from time to time, may use interest rate swaps to manage the risk of changes in interest rates. The Company’s forward contracts are not collateralized and are entered into with large, reputable financial institutions that are monitored for counterparty risk. Refer to Note 8 for additional information on the fair value of our derivative financial instruments.

Foreign currency contracts

The Company operates in foreign countries, which exposes it to market risk associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. The Company uses forward contracts to manage its exposure to fluctuations in the U.S. dollar (“USD”) – Canadian dollar (“CAD”) and may also use cross currency swaps for the same reason. Forward contracts lock in the exchange rate for a portion of the estimated cash flows of the Company’s Canadian operations. As of December 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023, the Company’s forward contracts had USD equivalent gross notional amounts of $102.5 million and $33.2 million, respectively. In April 2024, the Company terminated its cross currency swaps, resulting in net proceeds of $28.1 million. These cross currency swaps were not designated in hedging relationships. Cross currency swaps with notional amounts of $275.0 million were outstanding at December 30, 2023.

Interest rate swap contracts

The Company’s market risk is affected by changes in interest rates. The Company’s Senior Secured Credit Facilities bear interest based on market rates plus an applicable margin. Because the interest rate on the Company’s floating-rate debt is tied to market rates, the Company may from time to time manage its exposure to interest rate movements by effectively converting a portion of its floating-rate debt to fixed-rate debt using interest rate swaps. Interest rate swaps, as used by the Company, involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreement without exchange of the underlying notional amount. The Company previously entered into two interest rate swaps that were designated as cash flow hedges. In April 2024, the Company terminated its interest rate swaps, resulting in net proceeds of $10.3 million. All amounts deferred into accumulated other comprehensive income prior to termination will be amortized to interest expense through May 2025, being the original maturity date of the interest rate swaps. Interest rate swaps with notional amounts of $275.0 million were outstanding at December 30, 2023.

The fair values of cross currency swap contracts, forward contracts and interest rate swap contracts were as follows:

The impact of derivative financial instruments on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income was as follows:

The table below presents the effect of cash flow hedge accounting on other comprehensive (loss) income, net of tax:

Amounts reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income into net income are recognized in interest expense, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. Within the next 12 months, the Company estimates that an additional $4.4 million of gains recognized within accumulated other comprehensive income will be reclassified as a decrease in interest expense, net.

Note 11. Segments

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer, who is the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), assesses segment performance and makes resource allocation decisions based on the geographies in which it conducts its retail operations, and separately for its wholesale operations, each of which represents an operating segment. For disclosure purposes, U.S. Retail and Canada Retail were determined to be reportable segments. Neither the Company’s retail operations in Australia nor its wholesale operations meet the quantitative thresholds to be reported separately and since they do not share similar economic characteristics, they have been combined and disclosed within Other.

The Company’s CODM assesses segment performance and makes resource allocation decisions primarily based on weekly, monthly and quarterly reports that focus predominantly on segment net sales, the drivers of segment net sales, and key non-financial operating metrics by segment. These weekly, monthly and quarterly reports compare actual segment performance against performance in the comparative period in the prior year, against budget, against forecast, or as a trend over time, or any combination of the foregoing. Collectively, these factors provide the CODM with insight into segment profitability. The Company’s CODM is provided with segment profit as well as significant segment expenses on a recurring basis.

General corporate expenses include unallocated corporate overhead recorded in salaries, wages and benefits, and selling, general and administrativein the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

Segment profit may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other entities. These measures should not be considered as alternatives to our GAAP measures of operating income, net income or cash flows from operating activities as an indicator of the Company’s performance or as a measure of its liquidity.

Our segment results are presented in the tables below. In each table, “Other profit” is attributable to the Australia Retail and Wholesale operating segments which have been combined.

We do not separately present assets for our reportable segments because the Company’s CODM is not provided these amounts. The Company’s long-lived assets are primarily located in the U.S. and Canada, with a portion located in Australia. Long-lived assets consist of property and equipment, ROU lease assets and charity licensing agreements. The following table disaggregates our long-lived assets by location:

The following table reconciles total reportable segment net sales to consolidated net sales. “Other sales” is attributable to the Australia Retail and Wholesale operating segments which have been combined.

The following table disaggregates the Company’s net sales by geography, based on the location of the Company’s customers:

Note 12. Net Income Per Share

Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share gives effect to all potentially dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding for the period under the treasury stock method.

Basic and diluted net income per share were as follows:

(1)For fiscal years 2024,2023 and 2022, the calculation of diluted net income per share excludes the effect of 3.1 million,0.8 million and 0.6 million, respectively, of potential shares of common stock because the effect of including these potential shares was antidilutive.

Note 13. Stock-Based Compensation

2019 Management Incentive Plan

On March 28, 2019, the Company adopted the 2019 Management Incentive Plan (the “2019 Plan”) which allows for the issuance of stock options to directors, officers, key employees and other key individuals. Stock options awarded under the 2019 Plan contain both service and performance conditions. Awards issued under the 2019 Plan have a 10-year contractual term. In connection with the adoption of the Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan (as defined below), the Company ceased issuing awards under the 2019 Plan. As a result, no shares remain available for issuance under the 2019 Plan; however, the 2019 Plan continues to govern awards that are outstanding under it. As of December 28, 2024,12.7 million shares remain outstanding under the 2019 Plan.

Omnibus Incentive Plan

In connection with the IPO, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Omnibus Incentive Plan”), which became effective on June 28, 2023, the date the SEC declared our IPO registration statement on Form S-1 effective.

The Omnibus Incentive Plan allows for issuance of up to 15.0 million new shares of common stock. In addition, should any awards under the 2019 Plan expire, terminate or be canceled, the shares of common stock underlying those awards will become available for issuance under the Omnibus Incentive Plan. Awards under the Omnibus Incentive Plan may be in the form of incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock awards, stock units, other stock-based awards and cash awards. Awards issued under the Omnibus Incentive Plan have a maximum contractual term of 10 years. As of December 28, 2024, there were 14.6 million shares available for future issuance under the Omnibus Incentive Plan.

Stock-based compensation

The Company classifies stock-based compensation expense in salaries, wages and benefits in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $61.6 million, $72.6 million and $1.9 million during fiscal years 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The total tax benefit associated with stock-based compensation for fiscal years 2024, 2023 and 2022 was $6.0 million, $7.2 million and $0.4 million, respectively.

Time-based options

Stock option awards containing only a service condition (“time-based options”) generally vest in equal annual installments over aone-year, three-year orfive-year period from the date of grant provided the participant continues to be employed by, or provide service to, the Company through each vesting date. Stock-based compensation cost for time-based options is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model and is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award. The Company accounts for forfeitures of time-based options as they occur.

The following assumptions apply to time-based options awarded during fiscal years 2024, 2023 and 2022 under the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model:

The dividend yield assumption iszero. Although the Company paid a cash dividend in February 2023 and December 2022, the Company has no history of making regular dividends, nor does it anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

The weighted average grant-date fair value of time-based stock options awarded during fiscal years 2024,2023 and 2022 was $9.26, $6.01 and $5.70, respectively.

Expected volatility is based on historic share price volatilities of comparable publicly traded companies consistent with the expected term. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of each grant, which corresponds to the expected term of the stock options. Based upon limited exercise history, the Company has elected to use the simplified method for estimating the expected term. The expected term of options granted represents the period of time that options are expected to be outstanding.

The following table summarizes activity related to time-based options:

The total intrinsic value of time-based options exercised during fiscal years 2024,2023 and 2022 was $21.8 million, $2.6 million and $0.9 million, respectively. As of December 28, 2024, unrecognized compensation expense related to outstanding time-based options was $9.8 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average remaining vesting period of 2.93 years.

Performance-based options

Stock option awards containing a performance condition (“performance-based options”) vest in 25% increments as performance conditions are achieved through the term of the options. Twenty-five percent of outstanding performance-based options vested upon completion of the Company’s IPO, with the remainder scheduled to vest in equal increments over three years starting on June 30, 2024 provided market-specific conditions, including stock price performance, are achieved. The vesting of performance-based options is subject to continued employment through the vesting date. To the extent that the requisite service is rendered, compensation cost for accounting purposes is not reversed; rather, it is recognized regardless of whether the market-specific conditions are achieved. The Company accounts for forfeitures of performance-based options as they occur.

In October 2022, May 2023 and on July 2, 2023, the Company modified the vesting terms of its performance-based options to reflect the vesting terms above. The Company determined that the modified vesting terms constituted modifications under Topic 718 and thus remeasured the fair value of the outstanding performance-based options as of their respective modification dates. Forty-one grantees were affected by the modifications that occurred in October 2022, May 2023 and on July 2, 2023. A Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model was used to determine the grant-date fair value of the performance-based options that were tied to the Company’s IPO and a Monte Carlo simulation under the option pricing framework was used to determine the grant-date fair value of the performance-based options subject to market-specific conditions.

During fiscal years 2024 and 2023, we recognized $51.3 million and $38.8 million, respectively, of expense related to amortization of the remaining outstanding performance-based options that are recognized on a graded vesting basis over their expected vesting period. During fiscal year 2023, we also recognized $28.0 million of expense related to performance-based options that vested upon completion of our IPO.

Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model

The following assumptions were used to remeasure the fair value of performance-based options resulting from the October 2022 and May 2023 modifications under the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model:

The dividend yield assumption iszero. Although the Company paid a cash dividend in February 2023 and December 2022, the Company has no history of making regular dividends, nor does it anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

The weighted average grant-date fair value of performance-based stock options modified during fiscal years 2023 and 2022 was $16.32 and $13.51, respectively.

Expected volatility is based on historic share price volatilities of comparable publicly traded companies consistent with the expected term. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of each grant, which corresponds to the expected term of the stock options. Based upon limited exercise history, the Company has elected to use the simplified method for estimating the expected term. The expected term of options granted represents the period of time that options are expected to be outstanding.

Monte Carlo simulation

The following assumptions were used to remeasure the fair value of performance-based options resulting from the July 2023 modifications under the Monte Carlo simulation:

The dividend yield assumption iszero. Although the Company paid a cash dividend in February 2023 and December 2022, the Company has no history of making regular dividends, nor does it anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

The weighted average grant-date fair value of performance-based stock options modified during July 2023 was $21.18.

Expected volatility is based on historic share price volatilities of comparable publicly traded companies consistent with the expected term. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of each grant, which corresponds to the expected term of the stock options. Based upon limited exercise history, the Company has elected to use the simplified method for estimating the expected term. The expected term of options granted represents the period of time that options are expected to be outstanding.

The following table summarizes activity related to performance-based options:

The total intrinsic value of performance-based options exercised during fiscal year 2024 was$4.1 million. No performance-based options were exercised during fiscal years 2023 and 2022. The Company did not award performance-based options during fiscal years 2024, 2023 or 2022. As of December 28, 2024, unrecognized compensation expense related to outstanding performance-based options was $29.0 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average remaining vesting period of 1.5 years.

Restricted Stock Units

RSUs contain only a service condition and generally vest in equal annual installments over aone-year orthree-year period from the date of grant, provided the participant continues to be employed by, or provide service to, the Company through each vesting date. The fair value of RSUs is determined using the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant. All RSUs were granted after the Company’s common stock commenced trading on June 29, 2023.

The following table summarizes activity related to RSUs as of December 28, 2024:

As of December 28, 2024, unrecognized compensation expense related to outstanding RSUs was $12.4 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average remaining vesting period of 2.2 years.

Note 14. Share Repurchases

During fiscal year 2024, under our $50.0 million share repurchase program announced in November 2023, we repurchased 3.2 million shares at a weighted average price of $9.95 and a total cost of $31.9 million, of which $0.3 million was paid subsequent to December 28, 2024. As of December 28, 2024, we had $18.1 million remaining under the share repurchase program. The share repurchase program does not obligate us to purchase any minimum number of shares, and the program may be suspended, modified, or discontinued at any time without prior notice. The timing, actual number and value of any additional shares purchased will depend on a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, the market price of the Company’s common stock, general business and market conditions, other investment opportunities, and applicable regulatory requirements.

Note 15. Income Taxes

Income before income taxes consisted of the following:

Components of income tax expense (benefit) are summarized as follows:

The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows for the consolidated taxable entities at December 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023:

As of December 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023, the Company did not have U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards and had $11.4 million and $11.5 million, respectively, of U.S. state net operating loss carryforwards. These net operating loss carryforwards expire between 2028 and 2041. As of December 28, 2024, the Company had $0.3 million of federal foreign tax credit, no federal R&D credits andno other federal tax credits. As of December 30, 2023, the Company had $0.3 million federal foreign tax credit, no federal R&D tax credits andno other federal tax credits.

Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code and similar state regulations, contain provisions that may limit certain tax attributes available to be used to offset income in any given year upon the occurrence of certain events, including changes in the ownership within the meaning of Section 382.

The Company maintains a valuation allowance of $6.7 million and $3.6 million related to its Canadian and Australian operations, respectively. A valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts that are more-likely-than-not expected to be realized. Management evaluates and weighs all available positive and negative evidence such as historic results, projected future taxable income, future reversals of existing deferred tax liabilities, as well as prudent and feasible tax-planning strategies. Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are utilizable, we believe it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the net benefits of its deferred tax assets, other than the deferred tax assets related to the unrealized foreign exchange loss in Canada and deferred tax assets in Australia for which a valuation allowance has been maintained due to uncertainties relating to their realization.

The differences between income taxes expected by applying the 21% U.S. federal statutory tax rate and the amount of income taxes provided for are as follows:

(1)In October 2023 the Company underwent an internal legal entity restructuring.

(2)GILTI and FDII refer to Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income and Foreign-Derived Intangible Income, respectively.

The following table summarizes the activity related to the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits:

In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by taxing authorities in the countries in which it operates. As of December 28, 2024 the operations for tax years 2021 to 2024 remain subject to examination in the US federal jurisdiction, and the operations for tax years 2020 to 2024 remain subject to examination in Canada, Australia, and most US state jurisdictions. Although the outcome of tax audits is always uncertain, the Company has assessed the probable outcomes and potential exposure and believes that it has provided adequate amounts of tax, interest and penalties for any adjustments that may arise from these open tax years. The Company’s continuing practice is to recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense (benefit) in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

In October 2023, the Company went through an internal legal entity restructuring. As a result of the restructuring, the Company’s deferred tax liability on the outside basis difference in these partnerships was reduced from $42.0 million as of December 31, 2022, tozero as of December 30, 2023 and December 28, 2024.

As of December 30, 2023, the Company adjusted its deferred tax assets and liabilities to account for the basis differences related to the assets it received in the distribution noted above, including Internal Revenue Code Section 732 basis adjustments to the distributed property. Deferred taxes are not recorded for the distributed non-deductible goodwill. As of December 30, 2023, the Company recognized a deferred tax benefit of $31.3 million for the reduction of the partnership outside basis difference deferred tax liability, combined with any deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities recognized on the distributed property.

As of December 28, 2024, the Company hadnot recognized a deferred tax liability on the excess of the amount for financial reporting over the tax basis in the stock of certain foreign subsidiaries that is essentially permanent in duration. This amount becomes taxable upon a repatriation of assets from the subsidiaries or a disposal of the subsidiaries. It is not practicable to determine the amount of the related unrecognized deferred income tax liability.

The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (“OECD”) proposed model rules to ensure a minimal level of taxation (commonly referred to as Pillar II) and the European Union member states have agreed to implement Pillar II’s proposed global corporate minimum tax rate of 15%. Many countries are actively considering, have proposed or have enacted, changes to their tax laws based upon the Pillar II proposals. To mitigate the administrative burden for multinational enterprises in complying with the OECD Global Anti-Base Erosion rules during the initial years of implementation, the OECD developed the temporary “Transitional Country-by-Country Safe Harbor.” We considered the applicable tax law changes from Pillar II implementation in the relevant countries in which we operate, and there is no material impact to our tax provision for fiscal year 2024. We will continue to evaluate the impact of these tax law changes in future reporting periods.

Note 16. Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation and regulatory matters

The Company is involved from time to time in claims, proceedings and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company has made accruals with respect to these matters, where appropriate, which are reflected in the consolidated financial statements. For some matters, the amount of liability is not probable or the amount cannot be reasonably estimated and therefore accruals have not been made. The Company may enter into discussions regarding settlement of these matters and may enter into settlement agreements, if in the best interest of the Company. From time to time, the Company is involved in routine litigation that arises in the ordinary course of business. There are no pending significant legal proceedings to which the Company is a party for which management believes the ultimate outcome would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position.
