Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

The discussion in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 27, 2026 (this “Quarterly Report”) contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based on our current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding the future of our business, future plans and strategies and other future conditions. Forward-looking statements can generally be identified by words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “envision,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “predict,” “project,” “target,” “potential,” “will,” “would,” “could,” “should,” “continue,” “contemplate” and other similar expressions, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements concerning: plans to open new stores, expand into new regions and increase market share; our ability to manage supplier relationships; new store unit economics and new store growth as a driver of net revenue growth; the impact and future applicability of tariffs on our imported products and the timing and amount of any additional recovery of tariffs previously paid; expected future selling, general and administrative expenses and capital expenditures; and plans to increase brand awareness and increase comparable sales.

The preceding list is not intended to be an exhaustive list of all of our forward-looking statements. We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Actual results or events could differ materially from the plans, intentions and expectations disclosed in the forward-looking statements we make. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy and financial needs. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties, factors and assumptions described in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 28, 2025, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 18, 2026 (the “2025 Annual Report”), including those relating to, among other things:

•our reliance on foreign manufacturing, suppliers and imports for our products;

•the significant competition within our industry;

•our ability to successfully anticipate or respond to changes in consumer preferences;

•global economic conditions and the effect of economic pressures and other business factors on discretionary consumer spending;

•managing the challenges associated with our planned new store growth;

•failures by our third-party suppliers or the unavailability of suitable suppliers at reasonable prices;

•failures of our vendors to meet our quality standards or applicable regulatory frameworks;

•disruption in our distribution capabilities or supply chain, including due to the ongoing conflict in Iran and associated fuel price increases;

•our ability to protect our intellectual property rights;

•compliance with applicable governmental regulations;

•our ability to protect the privacy and security of information related to our customers, us, our employees or others;

•disruption in our information systems; and

•our ability to effectively manage our eCommerce platform and digital marketing efforts.

The forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report represent our views as of the date of this Quarterly Report. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as required by law.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Three and Nine-Month Fiscal Periods Ended September 27, 2026 and September 28, 2025

(Unaudited)

1. Nature of Business

Bob’s Discount Furniture, Inc. is a Delaware corporation and omni-channel retailer of quality home furnishings offering a wide variety of merchandise assortments across several categories including upholstery, case goods, bedding and other. This assortment of merchandise can be purchased through both retail and eCommerce sales channels. As used in these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, “the Company” refers to Bob's Discount Furniture, Inc. and its subsidiaries. At September 27, 2026, the Company operated 229 stores in 28 states across the United States.

On February 5, 2026, the Company completed an initial public offering (the “IPO”), pursuant to which an aggregate of 19,450,000 shares of common stock were sold at a price of $17.00 per share. The Company received aggregate net proceeds of $304.2 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering expenses. The Company used the net proceeds from the IPO, cash on hand and borrowings under its Asset Based Revolving Credit Facility (“Revolving Credit Facility”) to repay the amounts outstanding under its $350.0 million Term Loan. Refer to “Note 3, Long-Term Debt” for further information on the Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facility.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts and those of the Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries and have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements.

In the opinion of management, these condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature, unless otherwise disclosed in this report. The results reported in these condensed consolidated financial statements should not necessarily be taken as indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2025.

The Company's fiscal quarters follow a 13-week convention (“three-month fiscal period”), with each quarter ending on a Sunday. The third quarters for 2026 and 2025 ended on September 27, 2026 and September 28, 2025, respectively.

Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Areas in which significant estimates have been made include, but are not limited to, leased assets and the Company's evaluation of retail stores for impairment. Actual results could differ from the estimates made and such differences could be material to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Tariff Refunds

In February 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (“IEEPA”) were not authorized, and subsequent legal proceedings have directed U.S. Customs and Border Protection (“CBP”) to process refunds of such tariffs. The Company evaluates potential tariff refunds as gain contingencies. Accordingly, no amounts are recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements until the refund becomes realized or realizable, which the Company defines as the earlier of CBP approval of the refund claim or receipt of cash. When recognized, tariff refunds will be recorded as a reduction of cost of sales for inventory previously sold or as a reduction to inventory for products remaining on hand. The portion of refunds received that represent interest will be recorded as interest income. During the nine-month fiscal period ended September 27, 2026, the Company received approval from the CBP for $46.4 million in IEEPA tariff refund claims. Of this amount, the Company recognized $4.9 million and $42.8 million of tariff refunds for claims as a reduction of costs of sales, related to inventory previously sold, in the three and nine-month fiscal periods ended September 27, 2026, respectively, and $1.5 million in interest income in the nine-month fiscal period ended September 27, 2026 on the Company's condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income. Interest income related to the IEEPA tariff refund claims was not material for the three-month fiscal period ended September 27, 2026.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

Recent Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

In December 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270) - Narrow Scope Improvements. The standard update clarifies interim disclosure requirements and the applicability of Topic 270. This ASU adds a comprehensive list of required interim disclosures, clarifies the form and content of interim financial statements, and requires disclosure of events since the end of the previous annual reporting period that materially affect the entity. This update will be effective for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, and can be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect this update to have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-10, Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities. The standard update establishes the accounting for a government grant received by a business entity, including guidance for (1) a grant related to an asset and (2) a grant related to income. This update will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2028, including interim periods within those fiscal years, and can be applied modified retrospectively or retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The impact that this standard update will have on the Company is dependent on future government grants.

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. The standard update eliminates accounting consideration of software project development stages that exists under current U.S. GAAP. Capitalization of software development costs would begin when (1) management has authorized and committed to funding a software development project and (2) it is probable that the software development project will be completed and the software will be used to perform its intended function. This update will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, including interim periods within those fiscal years, and can be applied prospectively, using a modified transition based on status of the project and whether software costs were capitalized before the date of adoption, or retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this standard update will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements when adopted.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. The standard update requires disclosure of additional information about specific expense categories to provide investors with a better understanding of an entity’s cost structure and forecasting cash flows. The new requirements will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and can be applied prospectively or retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact on its disclosures from adopting this new accounting standard.

Term Loan

On October 31, 2025, the Company entered into a $350.0 million Term Loan (the “Term Loan”) having a maturity date of October 31, 2032 and bearing interest of 4.0% plus the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), with a SOFR floor of 0%. Contracted payments were 1% of the Term Loan annually, with 0.25% paid quarterly beginning in June 2026. The Company was required to prepay the Term Loan with any proceeds received from an IPO of the Company’s common

shares. In the nine-month fiscal period ended September 27, 2026, the Company repaid the Term Loan using net proceeds from the IPO completed in February 2026, cash on hand and borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility. Refer to “Note 1, Nature of Business” for further information on the IPO.

Debt Issuance Costs

In connection with the Term Loan, the Company incurred $11.0 million of financing costs, which were deferred as a reduction to the carrying value of the long-term debt obligation. The amounts deferred were amortized over the life of the Term Loan using the effective interest method and recognized as interest expense in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. In connection with the repayment of the Term Loan, the Company recognized an acceleration of amortization of debt issuance costs of $10.7 million in the nine-month fiscal period ended September 27, 2026.

Asset Based Revolving Credit Facility

On April 29, 2026, the Company amended its Revolving Credit Facility, increasing the maximum availability from $125.0 million to $200.0 million and extending the maturity date to April 2031. The availability of credit at any given time is constrained by the terms and conditions of the facility, including the amount of collateral available and a borrowing base formula based on several factors including the value of eligible qualified cash, accounts receivable and inventory. In connection with the Revolving Credit Facility, the Company has entered into a letter of credit of $0.6 million issued on the Company's behalf by a financial institution related to the guarantee of future payment on certain lease agreements. Borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility was $178.0 million and $124.4 million at September 27, 2026 and December 28, 2025, respectively. In connection with the amendment, the Company incurred $0.6 million in financing costs that will be amortized over the term of the Revolving Credit Facility using the effective interest method. Amortization of debt issuance costs associated with the Revolving Credit Facility was not material for the three and nine-month fiscal periods ended September 27, 2026 and September 28, 2025.

8. Commitments and Contingencies

Contingencies

The Company is a defendant in lawsuits arising in the ordinary course of business. Such matters are subject to many uncertainties and the outcomes of individual litigated matters are not predictable with assurance. While the Company is unable to predict the outcome, based on information currently available, the Company does not believe that resolution of any of these matters, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Company's condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Government Grants

In 2016, the State of Connecticut Department of Economic and Community Development (“DECD”) agreed to provide the Company with up to $20.7 million in subsidies comprised primarily of a $1.7 million grant, up to $11.0 million of tax credits and a $7.0 million forgivable loan in consideration of certain minimum investments that the Company agreed to make in Connecticut. The grant, which has no continuing conditions, was received in prior years, and no material benefit has been or is expected to be realized from the tax credits. The terms of the forgivable loan are described below.

DECD Loan Forgiveness Program

Under an agreement dated December 14, 2016, as most recently amended on December 3, 2025, the DECD provided a direct forgivable loan of $7.0 million which bears interest at an annual rate of 2%. The funds were specifically designated for use in the purchase of leasehold improvements, machinery and equipment, and furniture and fixtures in conjunction with the construction of the Company's corporate headquarters. Monthly interest-only payments commenced at the time the loan was granted with principal payments deferred until January 1, 2028. The final payment of principal and interest is due on September 1, 2029, if not sooner paid or forgiven. The Company will be entitled to prorated loan forgiveness so long as the Company has achieved at least 50% of its full-time Connecticut jobs creation requirement for twenty-four consecutive months, of which it can choose the twenty-four consecutive months with the highest average full-time employment in Connecticut during the period from December 14, 2016, through October 31, 2027, does not relocate its Manchester, Connecticut corporate headquarters through December 14, 2038 and does not relocate its Connecticut distribution center operations outside of the State of Connecticut through December 3, 2035. The Company believes it will meet all the requirements for loan forgiveness and accordingly has not recognized the forgivable loan in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. As the Company believes it will meet all requirements for loan forgiveness, the proceeds from the loan offset the carrying cost of the $7.9 million of assets generated in Connecticut associated with this program included in prepaids and other current assets on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Company assesses the likelihood of the conditions attached to the loan each reporting period. If the Company determines that it is no longer probable it will meet the conditions outlined in the DECD agreement, the change will be accounted for as a change in estimate.

Letters of Credit

The Company has entered into a letter of credit issued on the Company's behalf by a financial institution related to the guarantee of collateral for our workers' compensation and automobile liability insurance contracts. There was $10.2 million and $9.4 million of outstanding letters of credit at September 27, 2026 and December 28, 2025, respectively, related to these insurance programs, which were included in restricted cash on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets.

12. Income Taxes

The following table summarizes the effective income tax rate for the three and nine-month fiscal periods ended September 27, 2026 and September 28, 2025:


	Three-Month Fiscal Period Ended				Nine-Month Fiscal Period Ended
	September 27, 2026		September 28, 2025		September 27, 2026		September 28, 2025
Effective Income Tax Rate	27.1	%	27.3	%	26.6	%	26.6	%

The effective income tax rate represents the combined federal and state tax effects attributable to pre-tax earnings for the period. The effective income tax rate for the three-month fiscal period ended September 27, 2026 decreased when compared to the corresponding rate in the prior year period, primarily driven by an increase in research and development tax credits, partially offset by an increase in non-deductible executive compensation expense resulting from the Company's transition to a publicly traded company in 2026 and the application of the executive compensation deduction limitations under applicable U.S. tax law.

The effective income tax rate for the nine-month fiscal period ended September 27, 2026 remained flat when compared to the corresponding rate in the prior year period, primarily driven by an increase in research and development tax credits and a larger excess tax benefit from stock-based compensation, offset by an increase in non-deductible executive compensation as discussed above.

We have a proven, profitable and portable store model that has produced consistent financial returns across vintages, geographic regions and population densities. Nearly all of our stores remained profitable on a four-wall basis in the nine-months ended September 27, 2026 and we expect new stores to achieve average unit volumes (“AUVs”) of $9.0 million, cash-on-cash returns exceeding 80% by their fifth year of operation, with returns exceeding 60% by year two and a payback period of approximately two years. We believe our business model and new store unit economics, plus the expansive and fragmented home furnishings industry, provides us with an opportunity to expand our store base in both existing and new geographies to over 500 stores by 2035. Our ability to open profitable new stores depends on multiple factors, including our ability to identify suitable markets and sites, negotiate leases with acceptable terms, support new locations with qualified managers and achieve brand awareness in new markets. For further information see “Item 1A. Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business” in our 2025 Annual Report.

During the third quarter of fiscal year 2026, we continued to make progress to support our key long-term growth strategies. Accomplishments within the quarter include the following:

•opening 11 new stores and expanding our footprint into Tennessee, our 28th state;

•delivering comparable sales growth of 3.8% through increases in average order value (“AOV”) and eCommerce traffic; and

•reducing selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses as a percentage of revenue to 36.7% in the third quarter of fiscal year 2026 from 37.7% in the third quarter of fiscal year 2025 due to broad-based expense leverage on higher sales performance.

Tariffs

In early 2025, the U.S. Government began imposing significant new or increased tariffs on goods imported into the U.S. from numerous countries from which the Company sources merchandise. The global trade environment remains fluid and highly uncertain in 2026. The U.S. Government imposes a 25% tariff on imports of certain upholstered wooden furniture, which is scheduled to increase to 30% on January 1, 2027.

In February 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (“IEEPA”) exceeded the President’s statutory authority. The ruling invalidated the affected IEEPA tariffs but

did not invalidate tariffs imposed under other statutory authorities. The U.S. presidential administration has indicated that it may seek to reinstate all or a portion of these tariffs under alternative legal authorities or mechanisms. These developments have also introduced uncertainty regarding the timing and ultimate realization of potential refunds of tariffs previously paid, although U.S. Customs and Border Protection (“CBP”) has established a process to administer such refund claims. In the nine-month fiscal period ended September 27, 2026, the Company received approval from CBP for $46.4 million in IEEPA tariff refund claims. Of this amount, we recognized $4.9 million and $42.8 million of tariff refund claims related to inventory previously sold, which reduced costs of sales and favorably impacted gross profit in the three and nine-month fiscal periods ended September 27, 2026, respectively. Additionally, we recognized $1.5 million of related interest income in the nine-month fiscal period ended September 27, 2026. The tariff refunds and related interest income recognized during the three and nine-month fiscal periods ended September 27, 2026 materially affected the comparability of our results of operations relative to prior periods and are not indicative of future period results.

In April 2026, the President issued a proclamation modifying tariffs imposed under Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962, as amended (the “TEA”) on certain steel and aluminum derivative products, including changing the basis for calculating applicable duties to the full customs value of the imported product rather than solely the metal content. The proclamation excluded certain products, including the Company's covered products from the TEA Section 232 steel and aluminum duties; as a result, the Company's affected products became subject to the temporary 10% surcharge imposed under TEA Section 122. Effective July 24, 2026, the TEA Section 122 temporary surcharge expired and affected products became subject to applicable additional tariffs imposed under Section 301 of the TEA relating to forced labor, at rates generally ranging from 10% to 12.5%, depending on country of origin. The Company will continue to monitor developments in trade policy, including ongoing investigations that could result in additional tariffs or other trade measures affecting countries from which we source merchandise. The Company will evaluate these developments and make appropriate sourcing, pricing and other operational decisions as appropriate to manage the potential impact on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Geopolitical Events

Since late February 2026, the conflict in Iran has resulted in heightened volatility in fuel prices and geopolitical uncertainty. Geopolitical events, increased raw material costs, fuel prices and geopolitical uncertainty, including changes in U.S. tariff policy, have resulted in increased freight and distribution costs and have in the past resulted in supply chain disruptions and impacts on consumer spending. Ongoing geopolitical events may further materially increase the cost and reduce or delay the supply of our products and impact discretionary consumer spending, which may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and stock price. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our 2025 Annual Report, including the risk factor titled “Our business, results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected by global economic conditions and the effect of economic pressures, including inflation, and other business factors on discretionary consumer spending and consumer preferences.” We will continue to monitor developments in and the impacts of such conflicts and geopolitical events and uncertainties, evaluate their impact on the Company, and make appropriate sourcing and pricing decisions in an effort to minimize any impacts on our financial condition and results of operations.

How We Assess the Performance of Our Business

We consider a variety of performance and financial measures in assessing the performance of our business. In addition to our results determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we regularly review key performance indicators (“KPIs”) and certain non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted gross profit, adjusted net income and adjusted earnings before interest, tax expense/(benefit), depreciation and amortization (“adjusted EBITDA”), to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends in our business, prepare projections and make strategic decisions. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures and KPIs are useful to our investors as they present an informative supplemental view of our results from period to period by removing the effect of items not indicative of ongoing business operations and performance. The non-GAAP financial measures and KPIs presented herein are specific to us and may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other companies because of differing methods used by other companies in calculating them. The key measures we use to determine how our business is performing are: net revenues, gross profit and gross margin, SG&A, operating income, net income, comparable sales growth, adjusted comparable sales growth, number of new stores, number of stores, adjusted gross profit, adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA.

Net Revenues

We recognize revenue when merchandise is transferred or services are provided to the customer. This primarily occurs when inventory is delivered and accepted by the customer and also occurs when inventory is purchased and picked up at a retail store or distribution center. The revenue from delivery and the sale of our third-party product protection plan, Goof

Proof, net of costs, is recognized at the time of the delivery of the related merchandise to the customer. Net revenues are presented net of returns and sales tax.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

Gross profit is equal to our net revenues less our cost of sales. Cost of sales consists of actual product cost, the cost of transportation between our warehouses, suppliers, depots and retail stores and to deliver to customers’ homes, warranty costs, the cost of warehousing, inventory reserves and write-downs, and inventory shrinkage. Gross margin is gross profit as a percentage of our net revenues. Our gross margin is impacted by product mix, as some products generally provide higher gross margins, and by our merchandise costs and retail prices. Gross margin is also impacted by freight costs, the costs of distributing and transporting product to our stores, and occupancy costs related to distribution operations.

Selling, General and Administrative (“SG&A”) Expenses

SG&A expenses include the costs of selling our products and other general and administrative costs. Selling expenses consist primarily of compensation and benefits for our employees performing various sales functions, the occupancy costs of our retail stores and transaction losses. Compensation includes both variable costs, including commissions related to net revenue, and salaries and benefits. We expect certain of these expenses to continue to increase as we open new stores, develop new product categories and otherwise pursue our current business initiatives. General and administrative expenses included in SG&A expenses comprise primarily advertising expense, excluding pre-opening related costs, compensation and benefit costs for administrative employees, stock-based compensation, bank charges, and other administrative costs.

We expect that our SG&A expenses will increase in future periods due to additional legal, finance, insurance and other expenses that we expect to incur as a result of being a public company.

Pre-opening expenses

Pre-opening expenses include costs associated with opening new stores and new distribution centers for the duration of setup and preparation for opening. These costs primarily consist of rent and related occupancy expenses, marketing, payroll, and initial legal, permit, recruiting, and supplies expenses.

Operating Income

Operating income is gross profit less SG&A expenses, pre-opening expenses, loss (gain) on disposal of fixed assets, impairment of long-lived assets, restructuring charges and insurance recoveries. Operating income excludes interest income or expense, and income tax expense. We use operating income as an indicator of the productivity of our business and our ability to manage expenses.

Net Income

Net income is operating income less other expense, net, and income tax expense.

Key Performance Indicators and Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Comparable Sales Growth

Comparable sales growth measures performance during the current reporting period against the performance of the comparable store sales and of the eCommerce sales in the corresponding period of the previous fiscal year. Comparable store sales consist of revenues from our stores beginning on the first day of the 14th full fiscal month following the store’s opening, which is when we believe comparability is achieved. eCommerce sales consist of revenues from online purchases during the current reporting period. Any change in the square footage of an existing comparable store, including for remodels and relocations within the same primary trade area of the existing store being relocated, does not eliminate that store from inclusion in the calculation of comparable store sales.

Opening new stores is a critical component of our growth strategy. Accordingly, comparable sales growth is only one measure we use to assess the success of our growth strategy. Definitions and calculations of comparable sales differ among companies in the retail industry; therefore, comparable sales growth disclosed by us may not be comparable to the metrics disclosed by other companies.

Various factors affect comparable sales growth, including:

•national and regional economic trends;

•adverse weather conditions and other seasonal factors;

•housing affordability;

•the retail sales environment and other retail trends;

•the impact of competition;

•changes in our merchandise mix;

•the ability to identify and respond effectively to regional consumer preferences;

•spending habits of our customers, including levels of discretionary income;

•pricing;

•the growth of our channel mix in eCommerce;

•the ability to source and distribute products efficiently; and

•the use and timing of advertising and holiday events.

Adjusted Comparable Sales Growth

Adjusted comparable sales reflects comparable sales growth as adjusted for the impact of a $10.2 million anomalous timing shift in comparable sales for the third quarter of fiscal year 2024 as a result of a system outage impacting the final two delivery days of the third quarter of fiscal year 2024. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our 2025 Annual Report, including the risk factor titled “Risks Related to Data Privacy and Information Technology—We rely extensively on computer systems to process transactions, summarize results and manage our business. Disruptions in both our primary and back-up systems could adversely affect our business and operating results.”

Number of Stores and Number of New Stores

The number of stores reflects the number of stores as of a particular date. The number of new stores reflects the number of stores opened during a particular reporting period. New stores require an initial capital investment from us for store build-outs, fixtures and equipment that we amortize over time, as well as cash required for inventory and pre-opening expenses. We expect new store growth to be the primary driver of our net revenue growth over the long-term. We lease all of our store locations. Our typical initial lease terms are approximately 10 to 15 years with options to renew for two successive five-year periods.

Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin

Adjusted gross profit is defined as gross profit less items that are not indicative of ongoing business operations and performance, including refunds related to duties previously paid under IEEPA. Adjusted gross margin is defined as adjusted gross profit as a percentage of net revenues. We believe that excluding items from gross profit and gross margin that may not be indicative of, or are unrelated to, our core operating results, and that may vary in frequency or magnitude, enhances the comparability of our results and is useful for analyzing trends in our business.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted net income is defined as net income less items that are not indicative of the operating performance of the business, including, but not limited to, IEEPA tariff refunds and related interest income, restructuring charges, insurance recoveries, gains on hedge accounting de-designation of interest rate cap, gains and losses on disposal of fixed assets, impairment of long-lived assets, senior executive termination benefits, management fee and other expenses and income not indicative of ongoing business operations and performance.

We define EBITDA as net income before interest expense, interest income, income tax expense/(benefit), and depreciation and amortization expenses. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA as further adjusted for items that are not indicative of the operating performance of the business, including but not limited to, stock-based compensation expense, IEEPA tariff refunds, restructuring charges, insurance recoveries, gains on hedge accounting de-designation of interest rate cap, gains and losses on disposal of fixed assets, impairment of long lived assets, senior executive termination benefits, management fee and other expenses or income not indicative of ongoing business operations and performance.

Adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA are key metrics used by management and our Board of Directors to assess our financial performance. We use these non-GAAP measures to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies, to make budgeting decisions, to evaluate our performance in connection with compensation decisions and to compare our performance against that of peer companies using similar measures. These non-GAAP measures are frequently used by analysts, investors, and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry. Management believes it is useful for

investors and analysts to be able to evaluate these non-GAAP measures to help them evaluate our operating results by facilitating an enhanced understanding of our operating performance and enabling them to make more meaningful period-to-period comparisons. We believe that excluding items from net income and adjusted EBITDA that may not be indicative of, or are unrelated to, our core operating results, and that may vary in frequency or magnitude, enhances the comparability of our results and is useful for analyzing trends in our business.

Adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures and should not be considered as alternatives to net income as a measure of financial performance or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, and they should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by items not indicative of ongoing business operations and performance. You are encouraged to evaluate these adjustments and the reasons we consider them appropriate for supplemental analysis. In evaluating adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in this presentation. There can be no assurance that we will not modify the presentation of adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA, and any such modification may be material. Our presentation of adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA should not be construed to imply that our future results will be unaffected by any such adjustments. In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, may not calculate adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA at all or may calculate adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA differently and accordingly, are not necessarily comparable to similarly entitled measures of other companies, which reduces the usefulness of adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA as tools for comparison.

Adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA have their limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are that adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA:

•do not reflect every expenditure, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;

•do not reflect changes in our working capital needs;

•do not reflect income tax expense, and because the payment of taxes is part of our operations, tax expense is a necessary element of our costs and ability to operate;

•do not reflect non-cash equity compensation, which will remain a key element of our overall equity-based compensation package; and

•do not reflect the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations.

Although depreciation and amortization are eliminated in the calculation of adjusted EBITDA, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any costs of such replacements.

Management compensates for these limitations by primarily relying on our GAAP results, while using adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA as supplements to the corresponding GAAP financial measures.

Comparison of the three-month fiscal periods ended September 27, 2026 and September 28, 2025

Net Revenues

Net revenues increased $63.5 million or 10.3%, in the three months ended September 27, 2026 compared to the corresponding prior year period. Our retail channel increased $37.5 million, or 7.2%, and our eCommerce channel increased $26.0 million, or 27.8% for the three months ended September 27, 2026 compared to the corresponding prior year period. The increase in total net revenues was primarily due to non-comparable sales of $52.7 million and comparable sales growth.

Comparable sales increased 3.8% in the three months ended September 27, 2026, predominately driven by higher AOV and increased eCommerce traffic. These improvements were partially offset by lower in-store traffic.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

Gross profit increased $32.2 million or 11.3% in the three months ended September 27, 2026 compared to the corresponding prior year period. This increase was primarily driven by the impact of higher net revenues and $4.9 million in IEEPA tariff refunds, partially offset by higher inventory and fuel-related costs and increased tariffs.

Gross margin increased to 46.4% in the three months ended September 27, 2026, which is inclusive of $4.9 million in IEEPA tariff refunds discussed above. Excluding the tariff refunds, adjusted gross margin was 45.7% compared to 46.0% in the corresponding prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to higher inventory and fuel-related costs and increased tariffs, partially offset by favorable product mix shift into the “Best” product category relative to historical levels, higher delivery margins and selective pricing actions.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

SG&A increased $17.7 million or 7.6% in the three months ended September 27, 2026 compared to the corresponding prior year period, primarily due to increases in payroll-related expenses of $6.1 million related to new store growth, higher occupancy costs of approximately $5.4 million related to new stores and increases in rent in existing stores, growth in marketing spend of $5.4 million and an increase in depreciation expense of $1.8 million, partially offset by lower incentive compensation compared to elevated levels in the prior-year period.

SG&A as a percentage of revenue of 36.7% in the three months ended September 27, 2026 decreased compared to 37.7% in the corresponding prior year period. The decrease was primarily driven by broad-based expense leverage on higher sales performance and lower incentive compensation as discussed above, partially offset by higher occupancy expense for existing stores and the timing of new store openings in the current year, as well as incremental marketing spend associated with greenfield market expansion.

Pre-Opening Expenses

Pre-opening expenses increased $0.1 million in the three months ended September 27, 2026 compared to the corresponding prior year period driven by the timing of new store openings, partially offset by lower pre-opening expenses associated with new distribution centers.

Interest Expense

Interest expense in the three months ended September 27, 2026 increased $0.5 million compared to the corresponding prior year period primarily due to higher finance lease interest resulting from an expanded transportation fleet and financing costs associated with a distribution center.

Interest Income

Interest income in the three months ended September 27, 2026 decreased $0.2 million compared to the corresponding prior year period, primarily related to income earned on lower balances in our money market funds.

Other Expense (Income), Net

Other expense, net in the three months ended September 27, 2026 increased $1.0 million compared to the corresponding prior year period, primarily due to costs associated with a litigation settlement.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense in the three months ended September 27, 2026 increased $3.3 million compared to the corresponding prior year period, primarily due to higher pre-tax earnings. The effective income tax rate of 27.1% for the three months ended September 27, 2026 decreased from 27.3% in the corresponding prior year period, primarily driven by an increase in research and development tax credits, partially offset by an increase in non-deductible executive compensation expense resulting from the Company's transition to a publicly traded company in 2026 and the application of the executive compensation deduction limitations under applicable U.S. tax law.

Comparison of the nine-month fiscal periods ended September 27, 2026 and September 28, 2025

Net Revenues

Net revenues increased $158.9 million or 9.2% in the nine months ended September 27, 2026 compared to the corresponding prior year period. Our retail channel increased $100.9 million, or 6.9%, and our eCommerce channel increased $58.0 million, or 22.1% for the nine months ended September 27, 2026 compared to the corresponding prior year period. The increase in total net revenues was primarily due to non-comparable sales of $137.0 million and comparable sales growth discussed below.

Comparable sales increased 2.5% in the nine months ended September 27, 2026, predominately driven by higher AOV and increased eCommerce traffic. These improvements were partially offset by lower in-store traffic.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

Gross profit increased $106.8 million or 13.6% in the nine months ended September 27, 2026 compared to the corresponding prior year period, primarily driven by the impact of higher net revenues, $42.8 million in IEEPA tariff refunds and efficiencies from improved product flow, partially offset by higher inventory and fuel-related costs, increased tariffs and the addition of costs associated with our new distribution center.

Gross margin increased to 47.5% in the nine months ended September 27, 2026, which is inclusive of $42.8 million in IEEPA tariff refunds. Excluding the tariff refunds, adjusted gross margin was 45.2% compared to 45.6% in the corresponding prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to higher inventory and fuel-related costs and increased tariffs, partially offset by customer preference for the “Best” product category mix relative to historical levels, as well as higher protection plan and delivery margins and selective pricing actions.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

SG&A increased $57.3 million or 8.6% in the nine months ended September 27, 2026 compared to the corresponding prior year period, primarily due to increases in payroll-related expenses of $17.7 million related to new store growth, higher occupancy costs of approximately $16.8 million related to new stores and increases in rent in existing stores, growth in marketing spend of $16.1 million, and an increase in depreciation expense of $5.3 million.

SG&A as a percentage of revenue decreased to 38.3% in the nine months ended September 27, 2026 compared to 38.6% in the corresponding prior year period due to broad-based expense leverage on higher sales performance, partially offset by incremental marketing and occupancy expense associated with greenfield market expansion.

Pre-Opening Expenses

Pre-opening expenses increased $2.0 million in the nine months ended September 27, 2026 compared to the corresponding prior year period driven by the timing of new store openings, partially offset by lower pre-opening expenses associated with new distribution centers.

Restructuring Charges

In the first quarter of fiscal year 2025, the Company identified efficiencies to optimize overhead costs resulting in workforce reductions at the corporate headquarters. Restructuring costs of $0.3 million were recognized in the nine-month fiscal period ended September 28, 2025 for these workforce reductions. No significant restructuring actions were initiated during the nine-month fiscal period ended September 27, 2026.

Insurance Recoveries

In the nine-month fiscal periods ended September 27, 2026 and September 28, 2025, the Company received $0.7 million and $4.5 million, respectively, in insurance recoveries for lost profits associated with an information technology system outage and the related interruption of our business that occurred at the end of September 2024.

Interest Expense

Interest expense in the nine-month fiscal period ended September 27, 2026 increased $15.6 million compared to the corresponding prior year period driven by the acceleration of $10.7 million in debt issuance costs in connection with the pay down of the Term Loan, interest expense associated with higher average outstanding borrowings, and higher finance lease interest resulting from an expanded transportation fleet and financing costs associated with a distribution center, partially offset by a lower weighted average interest rate.

Interest Income

Interest income in the nine-month fiscal period ended September 27, 2026 increased $0.9 million compared to the corresponding prior year period, primarily related to interest earned on duties previously paid under IEEPA, partially offset by income earned on lower balances in our money market funds.

Other Income, Net

Other income, net in the nine-month fiscal period ended September 27, 2026 decreased $0.3 million compared to the corresponding prior year period, primarily due to costs associated with a litigation settlement and the absence of income earned on our interest rate cap which matured in the third quarter of fiscal year 2025, partially offset by a bankruptcy settlement associated with a former vendor.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense increased $7.6 million for the nine-month fiscal period ended September 27, 2026, compared to the corresponding prior year period, primarily due to higher pre-tax income. The effective tax rate of 26.6% for the nine-month fiscal period ended September 27, 2026 remained flat when compared to the corresponding prior year period, primarily driven by an increase in research and development tax credits and a larger excess tax benefit from stock-based compensation, offset by an increase in non-deductible executive compensation resulting from the Company's transition to a publicly traded company in 2026 and the application of the executive compensation deduction limitations under applicable U.S. tax laws.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

Our primary sources of liquidity are net cash flows provided by operating activities and available borrowings under our $200.0 million Revolving Credit Facility. Our primary cash needs have historically been for merchandise inventories, payroll, advertising, rent, interest payments, and capital expenditures associated with opening new stores and updating existing stores, as well as the development of our infrastructure and information technology. We expect further investments in inventory to be commensurate with higher sales from new stores and comparable sales growth. We expect that our cash on hand, cash generated from operations and the availability of borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility will be sufficient to meet our liquidity requirements for at least the next twelve months. We seek out and evaluate opportunities for effectively managing and deploying capital in ways that improve working capital and support and enhance our business initiatives and strategies. At September 27, 2026, we had total liquidity of $287.9 million, comprised of cash and cash equivalents of $109.9 million and available borrowing capacity of $178.0 million.

Material Cash Commitments

We consider our material contractual obligations when assessing liquidity.

Debt and Related Interest Payments

At September 27, 2026, we had no amounts outstanding under our Revolving Credit Facility. The Company amended its Revolving Credit Facility on April 29, 2026, increasing the maximum availability from $125.0 million to $200.0 million and extending the maturity date to April 2031. Interest payments on our financing arrangements for the fiscal year ending January 3, 2027 (“fiscal year 2026”) will be dependent on our cash flow needs and any short-term borrowing under our Revolving Credit Facility in fiscal year 2026. The interest rate and subsequent payments related to the Revolving Credit Facility are dependent on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”).

In fiscal year 2025, we entered into a $350.0 million Term Loan having a maturity date of October 31, 2032. The Company was required to prepay the Term Loan with any proceeds received from an IPO of the Company’s common shares. In the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, the Company repaid the Term Loan using net proceeds from the IPO, cash on hand and borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility. In connection with the Term Loan, we paid $3.3 million in interest payments in the first quarter of fiscal year 2026.

We may be impacted by increases in interest rates on debt outstanding; to mitigate this risk, we evaluate interest rate cap agreements to manage our exposure to interest rate movements.

Leasing

Future rental payments for operating and financing leases total $1.4 billion and $98.3 million, respectively, as of September 27, 2026.

Capital Expenditures

Historically, we have invested significant capital in opening new stores and distribution centers and we anticipate additional capital expenditures as we open more stores and distribution centers. Our capital expenditures are related to construction activities to design and build landlord-owned leased assets, net of tenant allowances received. Certain lease arrangements require the landlord to fund a portion of the construction related costs through payments directly to us. New stores may require different levels of capital investment on our part in the future. Total capital expenditures, net of tenant allowances, were $70.7 million for the nine-month fiscal period ended September 27, 2026. Total estimated capital expenditures, net of tenant allowances for fiscal year 2026 are expected to be in the range of approximately $110.0 million to $115.0 million, the largest portion of which is expected to relate to new and remodeled stores and a new distribution center.

Restricted Cash

The Company maintains certain cash balances that are restricted as to withdrawal or use. Restricted cash is comprised primarily of cash used as collateral with the Company’s insurance carrier related to a portion of our workers’ compensation and automobile insurance obligations. At September 27, 2026 and December 28, 2025, we had $10.2 million and $9.4 million in restricted cash, respectively.

Net cash used in financing activities in the nine months ended September 28, 2025 was $8.6 million, primarily consisting of $8.3 million in principal payments on financing lease obligations and $1.1 million in payments for the acquisition of treasury stock, both partially offset by $1.2 million in net proceeds related to the exercise of employee stock options.

Contractual Obligations and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

There have been no material changes outside the ordinary course of business in our contractual obligations or off-balance sheet arrangements during the first nine months of fiscal year 2026. See our 2025 Annual Report for a discussion of our contractual obligations and off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Preparation of the Company’s financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Management believes the most complex and sensitive judgments, because of their significance to the consolidated financial statements, result primarily from the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. Management’s Discussion and Analysis and the notes to consolidated financial statements in the Company’s 2025 Annual Report describe the critical accounting estimates and significant accounting policies used in preparing the consolidated financial statements. Actual results in these areas could differ from management’s estimates.

Recent Accounting Standards

There have been no changes in accounting standards during the first nine months of fiscal year 2026. Refer to Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies for further information on accounting standards not yet adopted.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

There have been no significant changes to the Company's exposure to market risk during the first three and nine months of fiscal year 2026. See the Company's 2025 Annual Report for a discussion of the Company's exposure to market risk.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and to ensure that information required to be disclosed is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer, Executive Vice President and Treasurer (“CFO”), as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Our management has evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of our CEO and CFO, 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 the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based on that evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 27, 2026.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no 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 fiscal quarter ended September 27, 2026 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II - Other Information

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we have and we may become involved in litigation, claims and other proceedings relating to the conduct of our business including but not limited to claims related to our employment practices, commercial disputes, claims of intellectual property infringement and claims related to personal injuries and product liability for the products that we sell and the stores we operate. Any claims could result in litigation against us and could result in regulatory proceedings being brought against us by various federal and state agencies that regulate our business. Defending such litigation is costly and can impose significant burden on management and employees. Further, we could receive unfavorable preliminary or interim rulings in the course of litigation, and there can be no assurance that favorable final outcomes will be obtained.

In the opinion of management, we are currently not a party to any legal proceedings, the outcome of which, if determined adversely to us, would individually or in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully review and consider the information regarding certain factors that could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results set forth under the heading “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the 2025 Annual Report. There have been no material changes to those risk factors during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

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

None.

Item 5. Other Information

During the fiscal quarter ended September 27, 2026, none of our directors or executive officers adopted, modified or terminated any contract, instruction or written plan for the purchase or sale of our securities that was intended to satisfy the affirmative defense conditions of Rule 10b5-1(c) or any “non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement” as defined in Item 408(c) of Regulation S-K.
