Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

In the opinion of management of Destination XL Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (collectively with its subsidiaries, referred to as the “Company”), the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial statements. These financial statements do not include all disclosures associated with annual financial statements and, accordingly, should be read in conjunction with the notes to the Company’s audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the fiscal year ended February 3, 2024 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 21, 2024.

The information set forth in these statements may be subject to normal year-end adjustments. The information reflects all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the Company’s results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the periods indicated. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company’s business historically has been seasonal in nature, and the results of the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

The Company’s fiscal year is a 52- or 53- week period ending on the Saturday closest to January 31. Fiscal 2024 is a 52-week period ending on February 1, 2025 and fiscal 2023 was a 53-week period ending on February 3, 2024.

Segment Information

The Company has two principal operating segments: its stores and its direct business. The Company considers its stores and direct operating segments to be similar in terms of economic characteristics, production processes and operations, and has therefore aggregated them into one reportable segment, retail segment, consistent with its omni-channel business approach.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash in banks and short-term investments, which have a maturity of ninety days or less when acquired. Included in cash equivalents are credit card and debit card receivables from banks, which generally settle within two to four business days.

Short-Term Investments

Short-term investments consist of those investments that have a maturity date, when acquired, that is greater than three months and twelve months or less. These investments are classified as held-to-maturity and are carried at amortized cost, which approximates fair value due to the short period between purchase and maturity.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Cash and cash equivalents include amounts due from third party financial institutions, which from time to time, may be in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance limits. The Company is potentially exposed to a concentration of credit risk when cash and cash equivalent deposits in these financial institutions are in excess of FDIC limits. The Company considers the credit risk associated with these financial instruments to be minimal as cash and cash equivalents are held by financial institutions with high credit ratings and it has not historically sustained any credit losses associated with its cash and cash equivalents balances. In addition, the Company's cash and cash equivalents include money market accounts with Citizens Bank, N.A. and investments in U.S. government-backed securities held with Fidelity Investments.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, requires disclosure of the fair value of certain financial instruments. ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and enhances disclosures about fair value measurements.

The valuation techniques utilized are based upon observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect internal market assumptions. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of assets or liabilities.

The Company utilizes observable market inputs (quoted market prices) when measuring fair value whenever possible.

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. See Note 9 - Fair Value Measurement for information regarding the fair value of certain financial assets.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) - (“AOCI”)

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company terminated its frozen retirement plans, which was the only AOCI activity. As a result, there was no remaining AOCI as of February 3, 2024.

For the first three and six months of fiscal 2023, other comprehensive income and reclassifications from AOCI was as follows:



in thousands	For the three months ended July 29, 2023			For the six months ended July 29, 2023
Balance at beginning of fiscal year	$	(4,879	)	$	(4,928	)

Other comprehensive income before reclassifications, net of taxes		23			29

Other comprehensive income for the period		3,128			3,177

Balance at end of quarter	$	(1,751	)	$	(1,751	)

(1)

In connection with the Company's decision to terminate its pension plan, during the second quarter of fiscal 2023 the Company completed a partial settlement and accordingly recognized a pro-rated portion of AOCI in the amount of $4.2 million, or $3.1 million net of taxes.

(2)

Includes the amortization of the unrecognized loss on retirement plans, which was charged to “Selling, General and Administrative” Expense on the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended July 29, 2023. The Company recognized expense of $34,000, or $25,000 net of taxes, for the three months ended July 29, 2023 and expense of $92,000, or $68,000 net of taxes, for the six months ended July 29, 2023.

Stock-based Compensation

All share-based payments, including grants of employee stock options and restricted stock, are recognized as an expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations based on their fair values and vesting periods. The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model and requires the input of subjective assumptions. These assumptions include estimating the length of time employees will retain their vested stock options before exercising them (the “expected term”), the estimated volatility of the Company’s common stock price over the expected term and the number of options that will ultimately not complete their vesting requirements (“forfeitures”). The Company reviews its valuation assumptions at each grant date and, as a result, is likely to change its valuation assumptions used to value employee stock-based awards granted in future periods. The values derived from using the Black-Scholes model are recognized as an expense over the vesting period, net of estimated forfeitures. The estimation of stock-based awards

that will ultimately vest requires judgment. Actual results and future changes in estimates may differ from the Company’s current estimates.

There were no grants of stock options in the first six months of fiscal 2024. For the first six months of fiscal 2023, the fair value of each stock option grant was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model based on the assumptions in the table below as it relates to stock options granted.


	July 29, 2023
Expected volatility	86.3% - 92.1%
Risk-free interest rate	3.71%-4.42%
Expected term	2.5 yrs.
Dividend rate		—
Weighted average fair value of options granted	$	3.24

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews its long-lived assets for events or changes in circumstances that might indicate the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. The Company’s judgment regarding the identification of impairment indicators is based on operational performance at the store level. Factors considered by the Company that could result in an impairment triggering event include significant changes in the use of assets, a current period operating or cash flow loss, underperformance of a store relative to historical or expected operating results, and an accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the construction of the long-lived store assets. The Company assesses the recoverability of the assets by determining whether the carrying value of such assets over their respective remaining lives can be recovered through projected undiscounted future cash flows. The model for undiscounted future cash flows includes assumptions, at the individual store level, with respect to expectations for future sales and gross margin rates as well as an estimate for occupancy costs used to estimate the fair value of the respective store’s operating lease right-of-use asset. The amount of impairment, if any, is measured based on projected discounted future cash flows using a discount rate reflecting the Company’s average cost of funds.

There were no impairments or non-cash gains recognized in the first six months of fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023.

Advertising Costs

The Company expenses in-store advertising costs as incurred. Creative production costs, if any, are expensed in the period in which the advertising is first aired, and media costs are expensed as incurred. Direct response advertising costs, if any, are expensed in the period in which the mailing occurs. Advertising expense, which is included in selling, general and administrative expenses, was $11.0 million and $7.1 million for second quarter of fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, respectively, and was $18.3 million and $14.0 million for the first six months of fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, respectively.

Leases

The Company determines if an arrangement contains a lease at the inception of a contract. Right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of the remaining future minimum lease payments, initial direct costs. Lease incentives are included in the value of the ROU assets. As the interest rate implicit in the Company’s leases is not readily determinable, the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate, based on information available at the lease measurement date, to determine the present value of future payments. The Company elected the lessee non-lease component separation practical expedient, which permits the Company to not separate non-lease components from the lease components to which they relate. The Company also made an accounting policy election that the recognition requirement of ASC 842 will not be applied to certain, if any, non-store leases, with a term of 12 months or less, recognizing those lease payments on a straight-line basis over the lease term. At August 3, 2024, the Company had no short-term leases.

The Company’s store leases typically contain options that permit renewals for additional periods of up to five years each. In general, for store leases with an initial term of 10 years or more, the options to extend are not considered reasonably certain at lease commencement. For store leases with an initial term of 5 years, the Company evaluates each lease independently and, when the Company considers it reasonably certain that it will exercise an option to extend, the associated payment of that option will be included in the measurement of the ROU asset and lease liability. Renewal options are not included in the lease term for automobile and equipment leases because they are not considered reasonably certain of being exercised at lease commencement. Renewal options were not considered for the Company’s corporate headquarters and distribution center lease, which was entered into in 2006 and was for an initial 20-year term. At the end of the initial term, the Company will have the opportunity to extend this lease for six additional successive periods of five years.

For store leases, the Company accounts for lease components and non-lease components as a single lease component. Certain store leases may require additional payments based on sales volume, as well as reimbursement for real estate taxes, common area maintenance

and insurance, and are expensed as incurred as variable lease costs. Other store leases contain one periodic fixed lease payment that includes real estate taxes, common area maintenance and insurance. These fixed payments are considered part of the lease payment and included in the ROU assets and lease liabilities. Tenant allowances are included as an offset to the ROU asset and amortized as reductions to rent expense over the associated lease term.

See Note 4, "Leases" for additional information.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements - Not Yet Adopted

In July 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-03, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205), Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480), Equity (Topic 505), and Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 120, SEC Staff Announcement at the March 24, 2022 EITF Meeting, and Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 6.B, Accounting Series Release 280 - General Revision of Regulation S-X: Income or Loss Applicable to Common Stock, which amends or supersedes various SEC paragraphs within the Accounting Standards Codification to conform to past SEC announcements and guidance issued by the SEC. The ASU does not provide any new guidance, and as such, there is no transition effective date. ASU 2023-03 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.

In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendment in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative. ASU-2023-06 incorporates several disclosure and presentation requirements currently residing in the SEC Regulations S-X and S-K. The amendments will be applied prospectively and are effective when the SEC removes the related requirements from Regulations S-X or S-K. Any amendments the SEC does not remove by June 30, 2027 will not be effective. The ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements or related disclosures because the Company is currently subjected to the reporting requirements of Regulations S-X and S-K.

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280), which requires all public entities to provide enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The amendments in this ASU are to be applied retrospectively and are effective for our annual financial statements starting in fiscal 2024 and interim periods starting in fiscal 2025, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this accounting standard on our financial statements or related disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740), which enhances transparency about income tax information through improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid and to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. This ASU will be effective in fiscal 2025, and allows for adoption on a prospective basis, with a retrospective option. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this accounting standard on our financial statements or related disclosures.

There were no other new accounting pronouncements, issued or effective during the first six months of fiscal 2024, which had or are expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

2. Revenue Recognition

The Company operates as a retailer of big and tall men’s clothing, which includes stores and direct. Revenue is recognized by the operating segment that initiates a customer’s order. Store sales are defined as sales that originate and are fulfilled directly at the store level. Direct sales are defined as sales that originate online, including those initiated online at the store level, on its website or on third-party marketplaces. Generally, all revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods is transferred to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration in exchange for those goods. Sales tax collected from customers and remitted to taxing authorities is excluded from revenue and is included as part of accrued expenses on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Unredeemed Gift Cards, Gift Certificates, and Credit Vouchers. Upon issuance of a gift card, gift certificate, or credit voucher, a liability is established for its cash value. The liability is relieved and net sales are recorded upon redemption by the customer. Based on historical redemption patterns, the Company can reasonably estimate the amount of gift cards, gift certificates, and credit vouchers for which redemption is remote, which is referred to as “breakage.” Breakage is recognized over two years in proportion to historical redemption trends and is recorded as sales in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The gift card liability, net of breakage, was $2.1 million and $3.2 million at August 3, 2024 and February 3, 2024, respectively.

Unredeemed Loyalty Coupons. The Company offers a free loyalty program to its customers for which points accumulate based on the purchase of merchandise. Under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, these loyalty points provide the customer with a material right and a distinct performance obligation with revenue deferred and recognized when the points are expected to be redeemed or expire. The cycle of earning and redeeming loyalty points is generally under one year in duration. The loyalty accrual, net of breakage, was $1.1 million and $1.7 million at August 3, 2024 and February 3, 2024, respectively.

Shipping. Shipping and handling costs are accounted for as fulfillment costs and are included in cost of sales for all periods presented. Amounts related to shipping and handling that are billed to customers are recorded in sales, and the related costs are recorded in cost of goods sold, including occupancy costs, in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Disaggregation of Revenue

As noted above under Segment Information in Note 1, the Company’s business consists of one reportable segment, its retail segment. Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is generated from its stores and direct businesses. Accordingly, the Company has determined that the following sales channels depict the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of how revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors:


	For the Three Months Ended						For the Six Months Ended
(in thousands)	August 3, 2024			July 29, 2023			August 3, 2024				July 29, 2023
Store sales	$	87,845	70.4%	$	97,445	69.6%	$	168,693	70.2	%	$	184,742	69.6	%
Direct sales		36,975	29.6%		42,598	30.4%		71,616	29.8	%		80,743	30.4	%
Total sales	$	124,820		$	140,043		$	240,309			$	265,485

3. Debt

Credit Agreement with Citizens Bank, N.A.

The Company has a credit facility with Citizens Bank, N.A, which provides for a $125.0 million secured, asset-based credit facility with a maturity date of October 28, 2026 (the "Credit Facility"). The maximum committed borrowing of $125.0 million includes a sublimit of $20.0 million for commercial and standby letters of credit and a sublimit of up to $15.0 million for swing line loans. The Company’s ability to borrow under the Credit Facility is determined using an availability formula based on eligible assets.

Borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at either a Base Rate loan or Daily Simple SOFR rate, at the Company's option. Base Rate loans will bear interest at a rate equal to (i) the greater of: (a) the Prime Rate, (b) the Federal Funds effective rate plus 0.50% per annum and (c) the Daily Simple SOFR rate plus 1.00% per annum (provided the Base Rate shall never be less than the Floor (as defined in the Credit Facility)), plus (ii) a varying percentage, based on the Company’s average excess availability, of either 0.25% or 0.50% (the “Applicable Margin”). Daily Simple SOFR loans will bear interest at a rate equal to (i) the Daily Simple SOFR rate plus an adjustment of 0.10% (provided the Daily Simple SOFR rate shall never be less than the Floor), plus (ii) the Applicable Margin. Any swingline loan will continue to bear interest at a rate equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin. The Company is subject to an unused line fee of 0.25%.

The Company’s obligations under the Credit Facility are secured by a lien on substantially all of its assets. If the Company’s availability under the Credit Facility at any time is less than the greater of (i) 10% of the Revolving Loan Cap (the lesser of the aggregate revolving commitments or the borrowing base) and (ii) $7.5 million, then the Company is required to maintain a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.0:1.0 until such time as availability has exceeded the greater of (1) 10% of the Revolving Loan Cap and (2) $7.5 million for 30 consecutive days.

At August 3, 2024, the Company had no borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility and unused availability was $69.9 million. The Company had no borrowings during the first six months of fiscal 2024, resulting in an average unused excess availability of approximately $73.4 million. Outstanding standby letters of credit were $4.2 million and outstanding documentary letters were $0.9 million at August 3, 2024. At August 3, 2024, the Company’s prime-based interest rate was 8.75%.

4. Leases

The Company leases all of its store locations and its corporate headquarters, which also includes its distribution center, under operating leases. The store leases typically have initial terms of 5 years to 10 years, with options that usually permit renewal for additional five-year periods. The initial term of the lease for the corporate headquarters is for 20 years, with the opportunity to extend for six additional consecutive periods of five years, beginning in fiscal 2026. The Company also leases certain equipment and other assets under operating leases, typically with initial terms of 3 to 5 years. The Company is generally obligated for the cost of property taxes, insurance and common area maintenance fees relating to its leases, which are considered variable lease costs and are expensed as incurred.

ASC 842 requires the assessment of any lease modification to determine if the modification should be treated as a separate lease and if not, modification accounting would be applied. Lease modification accounting requires the recalculation of the ROU asset, lease liability and lease expense over the respective lease term. As of August 3, 2024, the Company’s operating leases liabilities represent the present value of the remaining future minimum lease payments updated based on concessions and lease modifications.

Lease costs related to store locations are included in cost of goods sold including occupancy costs on the Consolidated Statements of Operations, and expenses and lease costs related to the corporate headquarters and equipment leases are included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The following table is a summary of the Company’s components of net lease cost for the three and six months ended August 3, 2024 and July 29, 2023:


	For the three months ended				For the six months ended
	August 3, 2024		July 29, 2023		August 3, 2024		July 29, 2023

As of August 3, 2024, the Company had entered into three ten-year store leases that have not yet commenced with aggregated estimated future lease payments of approximately $6.2 million, which are not included in the above table. The leases are expected to commence during the second half of fiscal 2024.

5. Long-Term Incentive Plans

The following is a summary of the Company’s Long-Term Incentive Plan (“LTIP”). All equity awards granted under long-term incentive plans are issued from the Company’s stockholder-approved 2016 Plan. See Note 6, Stock-Based Compensation.

The LTIPs are granted annually and each LTIP covers a three-year performance period. Each participant in the LTIP participates based on that participant’s “Target Cash Value” which is defined as the participant’s annual base salary (on the participant’s effective date) multiplied by his or her LTIP percentage. Under each LTIP, 50% of each participant’s Target Cash Value is subject to time-based vesting and 50% is subject to performance-based vesting. Awards for any achievement of performance targets are not granted until the

performance targets are achieved and then are subject to additional vesting through August 31 following the end of the applicable performance period.

2021-2023 LTIP

The performance targets for the Company’s 2021-2023 LTIP were approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Compensation Committee”) on March 8, 2021, and covered a three-year period performance period, which ended on February 3, 2024. The time-vested portion of the 2021-2023 LTIP vests in four annual installments, with the remaining installment vesting on April 1, 2025.

On March 29, 2024, the Compensation Committee approved a grant of awards, effective April 1, 2024, equal to $3.0 million for the achievement of the performance target for the 2021-2023 LTIP. In an effort to preserve share availability under the 2016 Plan, all awards, which are subject to further vesting through August 31, 2024, were granted in cash.

Active LTIPs

At August 3, 2024, the Company had three active LTIPs: the 2022-2024 LTIP, the 2023-2025 LTIP and the 2024-2026 LTIP. The time-based awards under each LTIP were granted in a combination of 50% RSUs and 50% cash.

Performance targets for the 2022-2024 LTIP, the 2023-2025 LTIP and the 2024-2026 LITP were established and approved by the Compensation Committee on April 9, 2022, May 1, 2023 and April 1, 2024, respectively. The performance period for each LTIP is three years. Awards for any achievement of performance targets will not be granted until the performance targets are achieved and then will be subject to an additional service requirement through August 31, 2025, August 31, 2026 and August 31, 2027, respectively. The time-based awards under the 2022-2024 LTIP, the 2023-2025 LTIP, and the 2024-2026 LTIP vest in four equal installments through April 1, 2026, April 1, 2027 and April 1, 2028, respectively. Assuming that the Company achieves the performance targets at target levels and all time-based awards vest, the compensation expense associated with the 2022-2024 LTIP, 2023-2025 LTIP and 2024-2026 LTIP is estimated to be approximately $4.8 million, $5.1 million and $5.3 million, respectively. Approximately half of the compensation expense for each LTIP relates to the time-based awards, which are being expensed straight-line over 48 months, 47 months and 49 months, respectively.

At August 3, 2024, the Company had accrued $1.6 million under the 2022-2024 LTIP, $0.2 million under the 2023-2025 LTIP and $0.2 million under the 2024-2026 LTIP for the performance awards.

6. Stock-Based Compensation

The Company has one active stock-based compensation plan: the 2016 Incentive Compensation Plan (as amended, the “2016 Plan”). A grant of a stock option award or stock appreciation right will reduce the outstanding reserve on a one-for-one basis, meaning one share for every share granted. A grant of a full-value award, including, but not limited to, restricted stock, restricted stock units and deferred stock, will reduce the outstanding reserve by a fixed ratio of 1.9 shares for every share granted. At August 3, 2024, 15,120,538 shares were authorized under the 2016 Plan, of which 1,425,262 shares remained available for grant. Subsequent to the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2024, at the Company's Annual Meeting of Stockholders, which was held on August 8, 2024, the shareholders approved an increase of 6,150,000 shares authorized for future grant under the 2016 Plan.

The 2016 Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee is authorized to make all determinations with respect to amounts and conditions covering awards. Options are not granted at a price less than fair value on the date of the grant. Except with respect to 5% of the shares available for awards under the 2016 Plan, no award will become exercisable unless such award has been outstanding for a minimum period of one year from its date of grant.

The following tables summarize the share activity and stock option activity for the first six months of fiscal 2024:


	RSUs (1)			Deferred shares (2)		Performance Share Units (3)		Fully-Vested Shares (4)			Total number of shares			Weighted- average grant-date fair value

Outstanding non-vested shares at end of quarter		790,180			455,469		573,000		—			1,818,649		$	3.45

(1)

During the first six months of fiscal 2024, the Company granted time-based RSUs under its 2024-2026 LTIP. See Note 5, Long-Term Incentive Plans. As a result of net share settlements, of the 129,112 RSUs that vested, 115,292 shares of common stock were issued.

(2)

The 19,901 shares of deferred stock, with a fair value of $72,495 represent director compensation in lieu of cash, in accordance with the director's irrevocable election. The shares of deferred stock will be issued upon the director's separation from service.

(3)

On August 11, 2023, the Company granted 573,000 performance share units ("PSUs") in connection with the extension of Mr. Kanter's employment agreement. The award consists of nine tranches, with the first tranche vesting if and when the 30-day volume-weighted closing price of the Company's common stock is equal to or greater than $6.50 per share. Each subsequent tranche will vest upon achievement of the 30-day volume-weighted closing price of the Company's common stock in $0.25 increments with the ninth tranche vesting when such price is equal to or greater than $8.50 per share. The PSUs are subject to a one-year minimum vesting period, and any unvested PSUs will expire on August 11, 2026. The $2.4 million fair value is being expensed over the respective derived service periods of each tranche which range from 12 to 13 months. The respective fair value and derived service periods assigned to the PSUs were determined using a Monte Carlo model based on: a weighted historical volatility of 57.8%, a term of 3 years, stock price on the date of grant of $4.98 per share, a risk-free rate of 4.6% and a cost of equity of 11.0%.

(4)

Represented compensation, with a fair value of $80,993, to certain directors, who are required to receive shares, in lieu of cash, in order to satisfy their minimum equity ownership under the Non-Employee Director Compensation Plan. Voluntary shares received, in lieu of cash, are reported below under Non-Employee Director Compensation Plan.


	Number of shares			Weighted- average exercise price per option		Weighted- average remaining contractual term		Aggregate intrinsic value (000's)

Options exercisable at end of quarter		2,745,724		$	0.66	6.0 years		$	7,491

For the first six months of fiscal 2024, the Company granted 383,007 restricted stock units, 19,901 shares of deferred stock and 22,234 fully-vested shares. For the first six months of fiscal 2023, the Company granted stock options to purchase an aggregate of 1,317 shares of common stock, 547,294 restricted stock units and 11,924 fully-vested shares.

Non-Employee Director Compensation Plan

The Company granted 19,214 shares of common stock, with a fair value of approximately $69,992, to certain of its non-employee directors as compensation in lieu of cash in the first six months of fiscal 2024. These shares are in addition to any shares that may be granted under the 2016 Plan related to the requirement to receive equity if a director has not yet satisfied his or her minimum equity ownership requirement under the Non-Employee Director Compensation Plan.

Stock Compensation Expense

The Company recognized total stock-based compensation expense of $1.8 million and $0.8 million for the first six months of fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, respectively. The total compensation cost related to time-vested stock options, RSU awards, and PSU awards not yet recognized as of August 3, 2024 was approximately $3.0 million, net of estimated forfeitures, which will be expensed over a weighted average remaining life of 32 months.

7. Equity and Earnings per Share

The following table provides a reconciliation of the number of shares outstanding for basic and diluted earnings per share:


	For the three months ended				For the six months ended
	August 3, 2024		July 29, 2023		August 3, 2024		July 29, 2023
(in thousands)
Common stock outstanding:
Basic weighted average common shares outstanding		58,233		61,977		58,135		62,334
Common stock equivalents – stock options, restricted stock units and deferred stock		2,884		3,472		2,900		3,495
Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding		61,117		65,449		61,035		65,829

The following potential common stock equivalents were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share in each period, because the exercise price of such options was greater than the average market price per share of common stock for the respective periods or because the unearned compensation associated with stock options or restricted stock units had an anti-dilutive effect.


	For the three months ended				For the six months ended
	August 3, 2024		July 29, 2023		August 3, 2024		July 29, 2023
(in thousands, except exercise prices)
Stock options		36		100		36		100
Restricted stock units and deferred stock		350		179		363		24
Range of exercise prices of such options	$4.48-$6.59		$4.48 - $6.59		$4.48 - $6.59		$4.48 - $6.59

The above options, which were outstanding at August 3, 2024, expire from November 10, 2024 to March 20, 2033.

Excluded from the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share were 573,000 shares for the first three and six months of fiscal 2024. These performance-based awards will be included in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share if, and when, the respective performance targets are achieved. In addition, 455,469 shares and 435,568 shares of deferred stock at August 3, 2024 and July 29, 2023, respectively, were excluded from the computation of basic earnings per share. Shares of deferred stock are not considered issued and outstanding until the vesting date of the deferral period.

8. Income Taxes

The Company's tax provision for income taxes for interim periods is determined using an estimate of its annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items, if any. Each quarter, the Company updates its estimate of the annual effective tax rate and makes a year-to-date adjustment to the provision.

For the first six months of fiscal 2024 and 2023, the Company’s effective tax rate was 32.3% and 26.5%, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily due to permanent book to tax differences combined with a lower pretax income as compared to the first six months of fiscal 2023.

9. Fair Value Measurement

At August 3, 2024 and February 3, 2024, the Company held U.S. treasury bills which were classified as held-to maturity and carried at amortized cost.


			Fair Value
(in thousands)	Carrying value		Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)
At August 3, 2024:
Cash equivalents:		4,031		4,032		—		—
Short-term investments		41,732		41,757		—		—

At February 3, 2024:
Cash equivalents		6,047		6,052		—		—
Short-term investments		32,459		32,479		—		—

10. Stock Repurchase Program

On March 14, 2023, the Company's Board of Directors (“Board”) approved a stock repurchase program, effective March 16, 2023, which was subsequently amended in November 2023. Under the amended program, the Company was authorized to repurchase up to $25.0 million of its common stock, including excise tax, through open market and privately negotiated transactions.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company repurchased 52,802 shares at a total cost, including fees, of $211,182, completing its stock repurchase program.

The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 imposed a nondeductible 1% excise tax on the net value of certain share repurchases made after December 31, 2022. Beginning in fiscal year 2023, the applicable excise tax is being charged to additional paid-in capital in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet as part of the cost basis of the shares repurchased, with the corresponding liability for the excise tax payable recorded in accrued expenses and other current liabilities until paid. This liability is partially offset by a 1% credit permitted

under the rules for the fair value of shares issued by the Company. At August 3, 2024, the Company had accrued $0.2 million for the payment of excise taxes.

11. Termination of Noncontributory Pension Plan

In connection with the acquisition of Casual Male Corp. in May 2002, the Company assumed the assets and liabilities of the Casual Male Noncontributory Pension Plan “Casual Male Corp. Retirement Plan,” which was previously known as the J. Baker, Inc. Qualified Plan (the “Pension Plan”). Casual Male Corp. froze all future benefits under this plan on May 1, 1997.

In the second quarter of fiscal 2023, the Board of Directors approved the termination of the Pension Plan, and on July 1, 2023, the Company completed a partial settlement through the purchase of nonparticipating annuities. In connection with the partial settlement, in the second quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company recognized a charge of $4.2 million, representing a pro-rata portion of the unrealized loss in "Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss" on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company settled the remaining obligation and terminated the Pension Plan in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023.

BUSINESS SUMMARY

Destination XL Group, Inc., together with our consolidated subsidiaries (the “Company”), is the largest specialty retailer of big and tall men’s clothing with retail and direct operations in the United States. We operate under the trade names of Destination XL®, DXL®, DXL Outlets, Casual Male XL® and Casual Male XL Outlets. At August 3, 2024, we operated 233 Destination XL stores, 15 DXL outlet stores, 17 Casual Male XL retail stores, 19 Casual Male XL outlet stores and a digital business, including an e-commerce site at dxl.com and a mobile site, m.destinationXL.com, mobile app and third-party marketplaces.

Unless the context indicates otherwise, all references to “we,” “our,” “us” and “the Company” refer to Destination XL Group, Inc. and our consolidated subsidiaries. We refer to our fiscal years, which end on February 1, 2025, February 3, 2024 and January 28, 2023 as "fiscal 2024", “fiscal 2023,” and “fiscal 2022” respectively. Fiscal 2024 is a 52-week period, fiscal 2023 was a 53-week period and fiscal 2022 was a 52-week period.

SEGMENT REPORTING

We currently have two principal operating segments: our stores and direct business. We consider our stores and direct business segments to be similar in terms of economic characteristics, production processes and operations, and have therefore aggregated them into one reportable segment, retail segment, consistent with our omni-channel business approach.

COMPARABLE SALES

Our customer’s shopping experience continues to evolve across multiple channels, and we are continually adapting to meet the guest’s needs. The majority of our stores have the capability of fulfilling online orders if merchandise is not available in the warehouse. As a

result, certain transactions that begin online are ultimately completed at the store level. Similarly, if a customer visits a store and the item is out of stock, the associate can order the item through our website. A customer also has the ability to order online and pick-up in a store and at curbside. We define store sales as sales that originate and are fulfilled directly at the store level. Digital commerce sales, which we also refer to as direct sales, are defined as sales that originate online, whether through our website, at the store level or through a third-party marketplace.

Stores that have been open for at least 13 months are included in comparable sales. Stores that have been remodeled or relocated during the period are also included in our determination of comparable stores sales. Stores that have been expanded by more than 25% are considered non-comparable for the first 13 months. If a store is temporarily closed for more than 7 days, it is removed from the calculation of comparable sales until it reopens and upon its anniversary is once again removed from the calculation until the reopen date. The method of calculating comparable sales varies across the retail industry and, as a result, our calculation of comparable sales is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other retailers.

Our second quarter results reflect a challenging men's apparel market that was punctuated by a lack of foot traffic to our stores and lower conversion rates in our direct business. Customers gravitated towards promotions and lower price point goods, which signals a consumer who is carefully choosing where and how he spends his money. This was evident with the double-digit decrease we saw in store traffic and the lower conversion rates in our direct business, both of which were the primary contributors to our comparable sales decrease for the second quarter of 10.9%. Comparable sales for our stores were down 10.0% and our direct business was down 12.8%. Despite a disappointing sales performance, we maintained a flat merchandise margin, with meaningfully less inventory, and a strong balance sheet. Our occupancy costs and selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 were in line with our expectations and included an increase in marketing costs, specifically related to our brand awareness campaign that launched mid-May. While we continued to diligently manage our operating expenses, given the pressure on sales, some of our cost structure was negatively deleveraged by the sales shortfall.

As of August 3, 2024, we had cash and investments of $63.2 million as compared to $62.8 million at July 29, 2023 with no debt outstanding and unused excess availability of $69.9 million. We continued to maintain our strong financial position, successfully managing our liquidity and our inventory levels, which were down 10.2% to last year's second quarter.

Progress on Our Long-Range Plan and Future Growth Strategy

We have made substantial progress on our long-term strategic growth initiatives and continue to believe that these initiatives will lead to greater brand awareness, enabling us to take a greater share of the addressable market, and grow our top line. However, given the current environment and the concern that this continued pressure on sales will continue, our near-term priority is to focus on our balance sheet, achieving profitable sales, and generating free cash flow. For this reason, we have made the difficult decision to pivot from the next wave of our planned brand campaign in the Fall, in favor of other advertising spend that we believe will stimulate traffic in the short term. We have also decided to slow our store roll out to lower our capital expenditure burden. It is important to emphasize, we remain very enthusiastic about the brand campaign and store development, and we are not abandoning our growth ambitions. We will stay focused on executing our fundamentals and controlling what we can control as we cycle through the current environment.

Marketing & Brand Building: We launched our new brand advertising campaign on May 13th to build awareness of our brand. The campaign ran in a three-matched-market test in Boston, Detroit, and St. Louis and the results were positive in all three markets, with increased traffic, sessions, and customer acquisition. Our initial plan was to run a second similar campaign in the second half of the year, however, given current market conditions, we believe pivoting the brand marketing dollars back into our traditional marketing channels will be more productive.

Store Development: While we have stores in every major metropolitan market across the United States, there are geographic voids in certain markets where big + tall consumers are not being served by a DXL store. Our consumer research has indicated that 44% of big

+ tall men self-reported they do not shop with us because a store is not near them, while 35% self-reported that they do not shop with us because a store location is not convenient. During the first six months of fiscal 2024, we opened two new stores and subsequent to the end of the quarter, on August 17th, we opened our third store, with five more expected later this year. We are evaluating our current rollout schedule and will likely reduce the number of expected stores, opening in fiscal 2025, from 15 to 10.

New Website Platform: We are transitioning to a new and improved eCommerce platform. The platform addresses friction online and will drive a richer and simpler consumer experience, as well as drive measurably greater speed and agility. We completed our first phase of this project in the first quarter, our second phase is expected to be released by the end of September, and the last phase is on schedule to be completed in January 2025. We believe this upgrade will provide immediate performance improvements and customer experience benefits by eliminating friction points, optimizing search capability, and enhancing speed and response times. We expect this new platform, engineered by a leading eCommerce technology provider, will position us to respond faster and more effectively to make changes in the future.

Alliances & Collaborations: Last quarter we announced our alliance with Nordstrom to launch DXL's Big & Tall assortment on their digital marketplace platform. Our merchandise offering launched on the marketplace on May 28th. To date, we have been pleased with the results and we are currently looking to expand our current product offering. We believe this collaboration will allow us to bring the DXL experience beyond our four walls and directly to the Nordstrom customer, thereby further extending DXL’s relationship with the female consumer. We are currently in discovery mode for collaborative offers with several other brands and we are optimistic that some of these brands could play a role in our assortment, similar to the collaboration with UNTUCKIT.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Sales

The following table presents sales by segment for the three and six months ended August 3, 2024 and July 29, 2023:


	For the Three Months Ended						For the Six Months Ended
(in thousands)	August 3, 2024			July 29, 2023			August 3, 2024				July 29, 2023
Store sales	$	87,845	70.4%	$	97,445	69.6%	$	168,693	70.2	%	$	184,742	69.6	%
Direct sales		36,975	29.6%		42,598	30.4%		71,616	29.8	%		80,743	30.4	%
Total sales	$	124,820		$	140,043		$	240,309			$	265,485

Total sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 were $124.8 million, as compared to $140.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2023. The decrease in total sales was primarily attributable to a decrease in comparable sales for the second quarter of 10.9%. The remainder of the decrease was due to a $1.9 million decrease due to the shift in calendar weeks due to the 53rd week in fiscal 2023 which was partially offset by an increase in non-comparable sales of $1.7 million.

The comparable sales decrease of 10.9% consisted of comparable sales from our stores down 10.0% and our direct business down 12.8%. Similar to our first quarter results, the decrease in comparable sales during the second quarter of fiscal 2024 was principally driven by a decrease in traffic in our stores and decreased conversion in our direct business.

For the first six months of fiscal 2024, total sales of $240.3 million decreased 9.5% as compared to $265.5 million for the first six months of fiscal 2023. The decrease was primarily driven by a decrease in comparable sales of 11.1%, with stores down 10.7% and our direct business down 12.0%. This decrease in comparable sales was slightly offset by an increase in non-comparable sales of $3.4 million and a $1.0 million shift in calendar weeks due to the 53rd week in fiscal 2023.

Gross Margin Rate

For the second quarter of fiscal 2024, our gross margin rate, inclusive of occupancy costs, was 48.2% as compared to a gross margin rate of 50.3% for the second quarter of fiscal 2023.

Our gross margin rate decreased by 210-basis points, which was driven by an increase in occupancy costs, as a percentage of sales, primarily due to the deleveraging of sales and increased rents as a result of lease extensions. Our merchandise margin, which was flat to the second quarter of fiscal 2023, was achieved despite an increase in markdowns associated with selected price matching for some of our national brands, as well as markdowns on seasonal merchandise to ensure inventory levels remain healthy as we head into the fall season. These increases were offset by favorable shipping costs and a reduction in loyalty expense.

For the first six months of fiscal 2024, our gross margin rate, inclusive of occupancy costs, was 48.2% as compared to a gross margin rate of 49.5% for the first six months of fiscal 2023. The decrease of 130-basis points was due to an increase of 190-basis points in occupancy costs due to the deleveraging of sales and increased rents. This increased cost was partially offset by an increase in merchandise margin of 60-basis points, driven by favorable shipping costs and a reduction in loyalty expense and marketplace commissions.

For 2024, we expect gross margin rates to be approximately 60 to 110-basis points lower than fiscal 2023 and reflect some occupancy deleveraging due to lower sales expectations.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

As a percentage of sales, SG&A (selling, general and administrative) expenses for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 were 43.0% as compared to 33.9% for the second quarter of fiscal 2023. For the first six months of fiscal 2024, SG&A expenses, as a percentage of sales, were 42.1% as compared to 36.1% for the first six months of fiscal 2023.

On a dollar basis, SG&A expenses increased by $6.2 million and $5.5 million for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2024 as compared to the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2023. The increase was principally due to an increase in marketing costs, which included our brand campaign that launched in the second quarter, of $3.9 million and $4.3 million for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2024, as compared to the respective prior year periods. The remainder of the increase was due to an increase in operating costs to support our long-range growth initiatives and increased healthcare costs.

Marketing costs were 8.8% of sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 as compared to 5.0% of sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2023. For the first six months of fiscal 2024, marketing costs were 7.6% as compared to 5.3% for the first six months of fiscal 2023. For fiscal 2024, marketing costs are expected to be approximately 7.0% of sales.

Management views SG&A expenses through two primary cost centers: Customer Facing Costs and Corporate Support Costs. Customer Facing Costs, which include store payroll, marketing and other store and direct operating costs, represented 24.2% of sales in the first six months of fiscal 2024 as compared to 20.3% of sales in the first six months of fiscal 2023. Corporate Support Costs, which include the distribution center and corporate overhead costs, represented 17.9% of sales in the first six months of fiscal 2024 as compared to 15.8% of sales in the first six months of fiscal 2023.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 decreased to $3.4 million as compared to $3.5 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2023. For the first six months of fiscal 2024 depreciation and amortization was $6.7 million as compared to $6.9 million for the first six months of fiscal 2023. The decrease was due to a lower depreciable cost base, especially from our store assets, due to our limited capital spending since fiscal 2020. Our capital expenditures have increased in fiscal 2024 as we have started to open new store locations and are investing in certain other infrastructure and technology projects.

Loss from Termination of Retirement Plan

Results for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2023 included a charge of $4.2 million related to a partial settlement of our pension obligation. The termination and final settlement of the remaining pension obligation was completed in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023.

Interest Income, Net

Net interest income for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 was $0.6 million, as compared to $0.5 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2023. Net interest income for the first six months of fiscal 2024 was $1.1 million, as compared to $0.8 million for the first six months of fiscal 2023. Interest income was earned from investments in U.S. government-backed investments and money market accounts. Interest costs for all periods were immaterial because we had no outstanding debt and no borrowings under our credit facility.

Income Taxes

Our provision for income taxes for interim periods is determined using an estimate of our annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items, if any. Each quarter, we update our estimate of the annual effective tax rate and make a year-to-date adjustment to the provision.

For the second quarter of fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, our effective tax rate was 35.2% and 26.4%, respectively, and for the first six months of fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, our effective tax rate was 32.3% and 26.5%, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily due to permanent book to tax differences combined with a lower pretax income as compared to the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2023.

Net Income

For the second quarter of fiscal 2024, we recorded net income of $2.4 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, as compared to net income of $11.6 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, for the second quarter of fiscal 2023. For the first six months of fiscal 2024, net income was $6.2 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, as compared to $18.6 million, or $0.28 per diluted share, for the first six months of fiscal 2023. The decrease in earnings was driven primarily by a decrease in sales and to a lesser extent an increase in marketing costs associated with our brand campaign.

Results for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2023 included a charge of $4.2 million related to the partial settlement of the pension plan.

Inventory

As of August 3, 2024, our inventory decreased by approximately $8.9 million to $78.6 million, as compared to $87.5 million at July 29, 2023. We continue to take proactive measures to manage our inventory and adjust our receipt plan given the ongoing macroeconomic factors affecting consumer spending. At August 3, 2024, our clearance inventory was 10.4% of our total inventory, as compared to 9.3% at July 29, 2023. Our inventory position is very strong and our clearance levels, while slightly above our benchmark of 10%, are in line with expectations given our 10% decrease in total inventory. Our inventory turnover rate has improved by almost 30% from fiscal 2019.

SEASONALITY

Historically, and consistent with the retail industry, we have experienced seasonal fluctuations as it relates to our operating income, net income, and free cash flow. Traditionally, a significant portion of our operating income, net income, and free cash flow is generated in the second and fourth quarters. Our inventory is typically at peak levels by the end of the third quarter, which represents a significant use of cash, which is then relieved in the fourth quarter as we sell-down our inventory through the holiday shopping season.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our primary sources of liquidity are our cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, cash generated from operations and availability under our credit facility, which is discussed below. At August 3, 2024, we had no outstanding debt, including no borrowings under our credit facility during the first six months of fiscal 2024. Cash that is in excess of our forecasted needs may be invested in money market accounts and U.S. government-backed securities.

We believe that our cash and cash equivalent balances, short-term investments, cash generated from operations, and borrowings available to us under our credit facility will be adequate to meet our liquidity needs and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months. However, we remain cautious regarding the effect that the current macroeconomic conditions may have on consumer spending, including inflation, high interest costs, and other geopolitical conflicts around the world. We also believe that cash flows from operating activities and cash on hand will be sufficient to satisfy our current capital requirements. In the longer term, to the extent future capital requirements exceed cash on hand plus cash flows from operating activities, we anticipate that working capital will be financed by our credit facility.

For the first six months of fiscal 2024, cash flow from operations was $16.0 million as compared to $26.2 million for the first six months of fiscal 2023. Free cash flow, a non-GAAP measure, was $3.2 million for the first six months of fiscal 2024 as compared to $21.6 million for the first six months of fiscal 2023. The decrease in free cash flow was primarily due to a decrease in operating income, driven by our sales decrease, and increases in capital expenditures of $4.4 million for store development and $3.7 million for other capital projects.

Cash flow used for investing activities was $21.9 million for the first six months of fiscal 2024 as compared to $48.1 million for the first six months of fiscal 2023. This decrease of $26.2 million was primarily due to a decrease in net purchases of short-term investments, partially offset by an increase in capital expenditures.

Stock Repurchase Program

In March 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program, which was subsequently amended in November 2023. Under the stock repurchase program, as amended, the Company was authorized to repurchase up to $25.0 million of its common stock through open market and privately negotiated transactions.

The stock repurchase program was completed in the first quarter of fiscal 2024, with the repurchase of 52,802 shares at a total cost, including fees, of $211,182.

Credit Facility

The Company has a $125.0 million revolving credit agreement with Citizens Bank, N.A., with a maturity date of October 28, 2026 (the "Credit Facility"). The Credit Facility includes a sublimit of $20.0 million for commercial and standby letters of credit and a sublimit of up to $15.0 million for swingline loans. Borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at either a Base Rate loan or Daily Simple SOFR rate, at the Company's option. Base Rate loans will bear interest at a rate equal to (i) the greater of: (a) the Prime Rate, (b) the Federal Funds effective rate plus 0.50% per annum and (c) the Daily Simple SOFR rate plus 1.00% per annum (provided the Base Rate shall never be less than the Floor (as defined in the Credit Facility)), plus (ii) a varying percentage, based on the Company’s average excess availability, of either 0.25% or 0.50% (the “Applicable Margin”). Daily Simple SOFR loans will bear interest at a rate equal to (i) the Daily Simple SOFR rate plus an adjustment of 0.10% (provided the Daily Simple SOFR rate shall never be less than the Floor), plus (ii) the Applicable Margin. Any swingline loan will continue to bear interest at a rate equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin. We are subject to an unused line fee of 0.25%.

We had no outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility at August 3, 2024 and no borrowings during the first six months of fiscal 2024. At August 3, 2024, outstanding standby letters of credit were $4.2 million and outstanding documentary letters of credit were $0.9 million. The average unused excess availability during the first six months of fiscal 2024 was approximately $73.4 million and the unused excess availability at August 3, 2024 was $69.9 million.

Capital Expenditures

The following table sets forth the open stores and related square footage at August 3, 2024 and July 29, 2023, respectively:


	August 3, 2024				July 29, 2023
Store Concept	Number of Stores		Square Footage		Number of Stores		Square Footage
(square footage in thousands)
DXL Retail		233		1,729		219		1,666
DXL Outlets		15		76		16		80
Casual Male XL Retail		17		55		27		88
Casual Male Outlets		19		57		19		57
Total Stores		284		1,917		281		1,891

During the first six months of fiscal 2024, we opened two new DXL stores, located in Coon Rapids, Minnesota and Thousand Oaks, California, completed a DXL remodel and closed one of our DXL stores. During the second half of fiscal 2024, we expect to open six additional DXL stores, convert five Casual Male stores to the DXL store format and remodel four more of our existing DXL stores. We expect our capital expenditures to range from $22.0 million to $25.0 million, net of tenant incentives, in fiscal 2024. Over the next five years, we believe we could potentially open approximately 50 net new DXL stores across the country, which could average 6,000 square feet or 300,000 sq. ft. in total, a 15% increase over our current square footage. In an effort to better manage our capital expenditures, we expect to open 10 stores in 2025 which is down from our previous estimate of 15 new stores in 2025.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

There have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies and estimates disclosed in our Fiscal 2023 Annual Report. See Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report for information on recent accounting pronouncements and changes in accounting principles.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Free cash flow, free cash flow before capital expenditures for store development, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin are non-GAAP measures. These non-GAAP measures are not presented in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered superior to or as a substitute for net income, net income per diluted share or cash flows from operating activities or any other measure of performance derived in accordance with GAAP. In addition, all companies do not calculate non-GAAP financial measures in the same manner and, accordingly, the non-GAAP measures presented in this Quarterly Report may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. We believe that inclusion of these non-GAAP measures helps investors gain a better understanding of our performance, especially when comparing such results to previous periods and that they are useful as an additional means for investors to evaluate our operating results, when reviewed in conjunction with our GAAP financial statements.

Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures are presented in the following tables (certain columns may not foot due to rounding):

Free Cash Flow. We define free cash flow as cash flow from operating activities less capital expenditures. We define free cash flow before capital expenditures for store development as cash flow from operations activities less all capital expenditures except capital expenditures for store development. Capital expenditures for store development includes capital expenditures for new stores, conversions of Casual Male XL stores to DXL and remodels. Capital expenditures related to store relocations and maintenance are not included in store development. Free cash flow excludes the mandatory and discretionary repayment of debt. Free cash flow is a metric that management uses to monitor liquidity. Management believes this metric is important to investors because it demonstrates the Company's ability to strengthen liquidity while supporting its capital projects and new store development. We expect to fund our ongoing capital expenditures with cash flow from operations.

The following table reconciles free cash flow:


	For the six months ended
(in millions)	August 3, 2024			July 29, 2023
Cash flow from operating activities (GAAP basis)	$	16.0		$	26.2
Capital expenditures, excluding store development		(7.6	)		(3.9	)
Free Cash Flow before capital expenditures for store development (non-GAAP basis)	$	8.4		$	22.4
Capital expenditures for store development		(5.2	)		(0.8	)
Free Cash Flow (non-GAAP basis)	$	3.2		$	21.6

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and adding back impairment (gain) of assets, if any, and loss on termination of retirement plans. Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Sales. We believe that providing adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin is useful to investors in evaluating our performance and are key metrics to measure profitability and economic productivity. The following table reconciles adjusted EBITDA from net income and calculates adjusted EBITDA margin:


	For the three months ended						For the six months ended

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

In the normal course of business, our financial position and results of operations are routinely subject to a variety of risks, including market risk associated with interest rate movements on borrowings. We regularly assess these risks and have established policies and business practices to protect against the adverse effects of these and other potential exposures.

There have not been any material changes to our interest rate previously disclosed in Part II, Item 7A of our Fiscal 2023 Annual Report.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of August 3, 2024. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of August 3, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have not experienced any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the three months ended August 3, 2024 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

We are subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. Management currently believes that the resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse impact on our future results of operations or financial position.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

There have been no material changes to the risk factors as previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of our Fiscal 2023 Annual Report.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

None.

Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities.

None.

Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures.

Not applicable.

Item 5. Other Information.

During the three months ended August 3, 2024, none of our directors or officers (as defined in Rule 16a-1(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) adopted or terminated a Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement or non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement (as such terms are defined in Item 408 of Regulation S-K of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended).
