    Important Information Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    In addition to evaluating the financial condition and results of our operations in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), from time to time our management evaluates and analyzes results and any impact on the Company of certain events outside of normal, or “core,” business and operations, by considering adjusted financial measures not prepared in accordance with GAAP. Examples of items that we consider non-core include store impairment and lease abandonment charges, an asset impairment charge and a change in revenue recognition method for Nuuly. In order to improve the transparency of our disclosures, provide a meaningful presentation of results from our core business operations and improve period-over-period comparability, we have included certain adjusted financial measures for fiscal 2024 and 2023 that exclude the impact of these non-core business items.

    We believe these adjusted financial measures are important indicators of our recurring results of operations because they exclude items that may not be indicative of, or are unrelated to, our underlying results of operations and provide a useful baseline for analyzing trends in our underlying business. Management uses adjusted financial measures for planning, forecasting and evaluating business and financial performance.

    Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed as supplementing, and not as an alternative or substitute for, the Company’s financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Certain of the items that may be excluded or included in non-GAAP financial measures may be significant items that could impact the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows and should therefore be considered in assessing the Company’s actual and future financial condition and performance. These adjusted financial measures are not consistent with GAAP and may not be calculated the same as similarly titled measures used by other companies.

    (a) During the three months ended January 31, 2024, the Company changed the revenue recognition method for Nuuly Rent from recognizing the monthly subscription fee revenue in the period the customer is billed to recognizing over the monthly period over which the customer’s subscription fee pertains. The Company also changed the period over which it amortizes rental product to align with the change in revenue recognition method. The impact was a reduction in “Net sales” of $9,072 and a reduction in “Cost of sales” of $1,975, resulting in a net reduction of $7,097 in “Gross profit.”
                    
    (b) Store impairment charges relate to 11 and 15 retail locations during the three and twelve months ended January 31, 2024, respectively, and 15 and 19 retail locations during the three and twelve months ended January 31, 2023, respectively. During the three months ended January 31, 2024, the Company also recorded lease abandonment charges for two store locations which it has committed to cease operations but the lease has not been terminated.
                    
    (c) The asset impairment charge relates to the write-off of “Property and equipment, net” of the Nuuly Thrift marketplace which the Company has decided to wind down in fiscal 2025.
                    
    (d) The income tax impact of non-GAAP adjustments is calculated using the estimated tax rate in effect for the respective non-GAAP adjustments.
