Savers Value Village, Inc.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the 1934 Act) as of September 27, 2025. Based on the evaluation of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 27, 2025 due to the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting as described below. In light of this fact, our management has performed additional analyses, reconciliations and other procedures and has concluded that, notwithstanding the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, the financial statements for the periods covered by and included in this Quarterly Report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with GAAP.

Material Weakness in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

As previously reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 21, 2025, we have identified a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting. The material weakness resulted from ineffective information technology general controls (“ITGCs”) in the areas of user access and program change-management over certain information technology (“IT”) systems that support the Company’s financial reporting processes. These control deficiencies were a result of: IT control processes lacked sufficient documentation; insufficient training and accountability of certain individuals with IT expertise; and inadequate risk-assessment processes to identify and assess changes in IT environments and controls that could impact internal control over financial reporting. As a result, process level automated controls that are dependent on the affected IT environment and manual controls that rely on system-generated data or reports from the affected IT environment were ineffective because they could have been adversely impacted.

Management Remediation Activities

To address the material weakness over ITGCs, we continue to execute on a plan to establish more robust processes to support our design and operating effectiveness of ITGCs, which includes the addition of information systems compliance personnel. In addition, we have engaged external advisors who are assisting in strengthening our ITGCs.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Other than the changes intended to remediate the material weaknesses noted above, there was no change in our internal controls over financial reporting, as defined under Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
