1 Omni-channel Comparable Net Sales includes sales at all retail locations and online, open greater than 12 months (including remodels and relocations) and excludes closed stores.

Highlights for the Quarter Ended May 5, 2024:

•Net sales decreased $8.6 million, or 6.1%, in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to the prior year period primarily driven by a decrease of 14.8% in omni-channel comparable net sales, partially offset by the net addition of 35 new showrooms compared to the prior year period. During the first quarter of fiscal 2025, we opened 24 additional showrooms and closed 3 showrooms and 5 kiosks.

•Gross profit increased $1.4 million, or 2.1%, in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to the prior year period. Gross margin increased 430 basis points to 54.3% of net sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 from 50.0% of net sales in the prior year period primarily driven by a decrease of 790 basis points in inbound transportation costs, partially offset by an increase of 240 basis points in outbound transportation and warehousing costs and a decrease of 120 basis points in product margin driven by higher promotional discounting.

•SG&A expense increased $11.9 million, or 21.0%, in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to the prior year period due to investments in payroll, professional fees, rent, infrastructure, selling related expenses, and equity based compensation. Selling related expenses include customer financing fees which increased $0.6 million, or 8.6%, to $6.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 from $6.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2024.
•Advertising and marketing expense increased $1.1 million, or 6.4% in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to the prior year period.
•Operating loss was $17.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to $5.7 million in the prior year period. Operating margin was (13.5)% of net sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to (4.0)% of net sales in the prior year period.

•Net loss was $13.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 or $(0.83) net loss per common share compared to $4.1 million or $(0.27) net loss per common share in the prior year period. During the first quarter of fiscal 2025, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $4.2 million, compared to $1.3 million in the prior year period. The change in benefit is primarily driven by higher net loss before taxes and an increase in the effective tax rate.



Exhibit 99.1
Other Financial Highlights as of May 5, 2024:

•The cash and cash equivalents balance as of May 5, 2024 was $72.4 million as compared to $45.1 million as of April 30, 2023. There was no balance on the Company’s line of credit as of May 5, 2024 and April 30, 2023. The Company’s availability under the line of credit was $33.7 million and $36.0 million as of May 5, 2024 and April 30, 2023, respectively. As previously announced, on March 24, 2023, we amended our existing credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. to extend the maturity date to September 30, 2024. All other terms of the credit agreement remain unchanged.

•Total merchandise inventory was $94.7 million as of May 5, 2024 as compared to $104.5 million as of April 30, 2023 principally related to a planned stock inventory decrease of $10.2 million coupled with a decrease in freight capitalization of $1.4 million related to the decrease in inbound freight expense.

Non-GAAP Information:

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as a non-GAAP financial measure by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) that is a supplemental measure of financial performance not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. We define “Adjusted EBITDA” as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted for the impact of certain non-cash and other items that we do not consider in our evaluation of ongoing operating performance. These items include management fees, equity-based compensation expense, write-offs of property and equipment, deferred rent, financing expenses and certain other charges and gains that we do not believe reflect our underlying business performance. We have reconciled this non-GAAP financial measure with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure within the schedules attached hereto. Statements regarding our expectations as to fiscal 2025 Adjusted EBITDA do not include certain charges and costs. These items include equity-based compensation expense and certain other charges and gains that we do not believe reflect our underlying business performance. We are not able to provide a reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial guidance to the corresponding GAAP measures without unreasonable effort because of the uncertainty and variability of the nature and amount of these future charges and costs. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing of certain events that have not yet occurred and are out of the Company’s control.

We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures not only provide its management with comparable financial data for internal financial analysis but also provide meaningful supplemental information to investors. Specifically, these non-GAAP financial measures allow investors to better understand the performance of our business, facilitate a more meaningful comparison of our actual results on a period-over-period basis and provide for a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. We have provided this information as a means to evaluate the results of our ongoing operations alongside GAAP measures such as gross profit, operating income (loss) and net income (loss). Other companies in our industry may calculate these items differently than we do. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered as a substitute for the most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, such as net income (loss) or net income (loss) per share as a measure of financial performance, cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and investors should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP.
