THE LOVESAC COMPANY

CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE THIRTEEN AND ~~THIRTY-NINE~~TWENTY-SIX WEEKS ENDED ~~NOVEMBER~~AUGUST 1, ~~2020~~2021 AND ~~NOVEMBER 3, 2019~~AUGUST 2, 2020

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION, OPERATIONS AND LIQUIDITY

The condensed consolidated balance sheet of The Lovesac Company (the “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”) as of ~~February 2, 2020,~~January 31, 2021, which has been derived from our audited financial statements as of and for the 52-week year ended ~~February 2, 2020,~~January 31, 2021, and the accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements, prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”), have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. The financial information presented herein, which is not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full current fiscal year, reflects all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements filed in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended ~~February 2, 2020.~~January 31, 2021.

Due to the seasonality of the Company’s business, with the majority of our activity occurring in the fourth quarter of each fiscal year, the results of operations for the thirteen and ~~thirty-nine~~twenty-six weeks ended ~~November~~August 1, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~November 3, 2019~~August 2, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year.

Nature of Operations

The Company is a technology driven company that designs, manufactures and sells unique, high quality furniture derived through its proprietary “Designed for Life” approach which results in products that are built to last a lifetime and designed to evolve as our customers’ lives do. The Company markets and sells its products through modern and efficient showrooms and, increasingly, through online sales ~~primarily online~~ directly at www.lovesac.com, supported by direct-to-consumer touch-feel points in the form of our own showrooms as well as through shop-in-shops and online pop-up-shops with third party retailers. The Company was formed as a Delaware corporation on January 3, 2017, in connection with a corporate reorganization with SAC Acquisition LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“SAC LLC”), the predecessor entity to the Company.

COVID-19

Operations and Donna Dellomo, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. The base salaries of all other senior management and full-time headquarter team members has been temporarily reduced by graduated amounts.The Company’s Board of Directors has also agreed to a temporary reduction of its retainer and monitoring fees and an extension of the associated payment timeline. The Company continues to monitor the situation closely and it is possible that the Company will implement further measures. As of November 1, 2020, we have re-hired 348 part time showroom associates to assist with showroom sales. As of October 1, 2020, we restored cash compensation for all headquarter associates other then senior management.Liquidity

The Company ~~has~~had incurred significant operating losses and used cash in its operating activities since ~~inception.~~inception through fiscal 2020. Operating losses ~~have~~ resulted from inadequate sales levels for the cost structure and expenses as a result of impact of tariffs on inventory, expanding into new markets, opening new showrooms, and investments into advertising, marketing and infrastructure to support increases in revenues. The Company plans to continue to open new retail showrooms in larger markets and increase its shop-in-shop relationships to increase sales levels ~~and~~ invest in advertising and marketing initiatives to increase brand ~~awareness. Of course, there~~awareness and invest in infrastructure to support growth of the Company. There can be no assurance that anticipated sales levels will be achieved. The Company believes that based on its current sales and expense levels, projections for the next twelve months, current cash on hand and the credit facility with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, see Note 7, the Company will have sufficient working capital to cover operating cash needs through the ~~twelve month~~twelve-month period from the financial statement issuance date.

NOTE 2 – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Except as described below, the Company has considered all other recently issued accounting pronouncements and does not believe the adoption of such pronouncements will have a material impact on its financial statements. The Company, as an emerging growth company, has elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised financial accounting standards.

The following new accounting pronouncements ~~and related impacts on adoption are being evaluated by the Company:~~were adopted in fiscal 2022:

In February 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) amending lease guidance to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. ASU No. 2020-05 extended the effective date to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, ~~2022,~~2021, with early adoption permitted. The Company ~~will adopt~~adopted the guidance in fiscal 2022 and there was not a material effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations.

Adoption of this standard resulted in ~~fiscal 2022. Management has evaluated~~ the ~~impact ASU No. 2016-02 will have on these condensed consolidated financial statements. Based~~recognition of operating lease right-to-use (“ROU”) assets and corresponding lease liabilities of approximately $90 million and $97 million, respectively, and reclassification of deferred rent of $6.7 million as a reduction of the right-of-use assets on the ~~initial evaluation, we have determined that adopting this standard will have a material impact on our condensed~~ consolidated balance sheet as ~~we have a significant number~~ of ~~operating leases.~~

While we continue to assess all of the effects of adoption, we currently believe the most significant effects relate to the recognition of new Right of Use “ROU” assets and lease liabilities on our balance sheet for our showroom and office real estate leases. We do not expect a significant change in our leasing activities between now and adoption. On adoption, we currently expect to recognize additional liabilities of approximately $91 million, of which $14 million will be short-term and $77 million will be long-term with corresponding ROU assets of the same amount based on the present value of the remaining minimum rental payments under current leasing standards for existing operating leases.February 1, 2021. The new standard also provides practical expedients for an entity’s ongoing accounting. We ~~currently expect to elect~~elected the short-term lease recognition exemption for all leases that qualify. This means, for those leases that qualify, we will not recognize ROU assets or lease liabilities, and this includes not recognizing ROU assets or lease liabilities for existing short-term leases of those assets in transition. We also ~~currently expect to elect~~elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for all of our leases.

~~In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07,~~ ~~Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting~~ (Topic 718). ASU 2018-07 eliminates the separate accounting model for nonemployee share-based payment awards and generally requires companies to account for share-based payment transactions with nonemployees in the same way as share-based payment transactions with employees. The accounting remains different for attribution, which represents how the equity-based payment cost is recognized over the vesting period, and a contractual term election for valuing nonemployee equity share options. ASU 2018-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than an entity’s adoption of Topic 606. Management does not expect there to be a material impact on these condensed consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 4 – INCOME TAXES

The Company continues to provide a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty as to when business conditions will improve sufficiently to enable it to utilize its deferred tax assets. As a result, the Company did not record a federal or state tax benefit on its operating losses for the thirteen and ~~thirty-nine~~twenty-six weeks ended ~~November~~August 1, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~November 3, 2019.~~August 2, 2020.

The Company does not anticipate any material adjustments relating to unrecognized tax benefits within the next twelve months; however, the ultimate outcome of tax matters is uncertain and unforeseen results can occur. We had 0no material interest or penalties during the thirteen and ~~thirty-nine~~twenty-six weeks ended ~~November~~August 1, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~November 3, 2019,~~August 2, 2020, respectively, and we do not anticipate any such items during the next twelve months. Our policy is to record interest and penalties directly related to uncertain tax positions as income tax expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

NOTE 5 – BASIC AND DILUTED NET INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE

Basic ~~earnings~~net income (loss) per common share is computed asby dividing net ~~earnings divided~~income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding ~~for~~during the period. Diluted ~~earnings~~net income (loss) per common share is computed asby dividing net ~~earnings divided~~income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and common stock equivalents outstanding ~~for~~during the period.

Diluted net ~~income(loss)~~income (loss) per common share includes, in periods in which they are dilutive, the effect of those potentially dilutive securities where the average market price of the common stock exceeds the exercise prices for the respective periods.

For the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended ~~November~~August 1, ~~2020, there were 495,366 shares~~2021, the effects of common stock underlying stock options of potentially dilutive shares which may be issued in the future that were excluded from the diluted net income per share calculation because the effect of including these potentially dilutive shares was antidilutive.

~~For the thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 2020, there were 1,973,607 of potentially dilutive shares which may be issued in the future, including 685,743~~558,021 shares of common stock related to restricted stock units, 495,366 shares of common stock underlying stock options and warrants to purchase ~~792,498~~281,750 shares of common ~~stock. For~~stock were included in the ~~thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended November 3, 2019,~~diluted share calculation.

As of August 2, 2020, there were ~~1,729,331 of~~2,241,802 potentially dilutive shares which may be issued in the future, including ~~194,845~~707,316 shares of common stock related to restricted stock units, 495,366 shares of common stock underlying stock options and warrants to purchase 1,039,120 shares of common stock. These were excluded from the diluted loss per share calculation in the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 2020, because the effect of including these potentially dilutive shares was antidilutive.

NOTE 6 – COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCY AND RELATED PARTIES

~~Operating Lease Commitments~~Leases

The Company leases its office, warehouse facilities and retail showrooms under operating lease agreements which expire at various dates through ~~September~~June 2031. ~~Monthly payments related~~The Company determines if a contract contains a lease at inception based on our right to control the use of an identified asset and our right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of that identified asset. Certain operating leases have renewal options and rent escalation clauses. We assess these ~~leases range from $2,040~~options to ~~$45,600.~~determine if we are reasonably certain of exercising these options based on all relevant economic and financial factors. Any options that meet these criteria are included in the lease term at lease commencement.

~~Expected future annual minimum rental~~Lease right-of-use assets represent the right to use an underlying asset pursuant to the lease for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments ~~under these~~arising from the lease. Lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement of an arrangement where it is determined at inception that a lease exists. These assets and liabilities are initially recognized based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term calculated using our incremental borrowing rate generally applicable to the location of the lease right-of-use asset, unless an implicit rate is readily determinable. We combine lease and certain non-lease components for our showroom real estate leases ~~follow:~~in determining the lease payments subject to the initial present value calculation. Lease right-of-use assets include upfront lease payments and exclude lease incentives, where applicable. Lease terms include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that those options will be exercised.

Lease expense for operating leases consists of both fixed and variable components. Expense related to fixed lease payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Variable lease payments are generally expensed as incurred, where applicable, and include certain index-based changes in rent, certain non-lease components, such as maintenance and other services provided by the lessor, and other charges included in the lease. Leases with an initial term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. In addition, certain of our equipment lease agreements include variable lease payments, which are based on the usage of the underlying asset. The variable portion of payments are not included in the initial measurement of the asset or lease liability due to uncertainty of the payment amount and are recorded as lease expense in the period incurred.

$ 89,774,697

ASC 842 requires companies to use the rate implicit in the lease whenever that rate is readily determinable and if the interest rate is not readily determinable, then a lessee may use its incremental borrowing rate. Most of our leases do not have an interest rate implicit in the lease. As a result, for purposes of measuring our ROU asset and lease liability, we determined our incremental borrowing rate by computing the rate of interest that we would have to pay to (i) borrow on a collateralized basis (ii) over a similar term (iii) at an amount equal to the total lease payments and (iv) in a similar economic environment. We used the incremental borrowing rates we determined as of February 1, 2021 for operating leases that commenced prior to that date. In the case an interest rate is implicit in a lease we will use that rate as the discount rate for that lease. The lease term for all of our lease arrangements include the noncancelable period of the lease plus, if applicable, any additional periods covered by an option to extend the lease that is reasonably certain to be exercised by the Company. Our leases generally do not include termination options for either party to the lease or restrictive financial or other covenants. Some of our leases contain variable lease payments based on a Consumer Price Index or percentage of sales, which are excluded from the measurement of the lease liability.

The Company’s lease terms and rates are as follows:

	August 1, 2021
Weighted average remaining lease term (in years)
Operating Leases		7.0

Weighted average discount rate
Operating Leases		3.76	%

During the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2021, we recognized operating lease expense of $4.6 million and $9.1 million, respectively. In addition, during the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2021, we recognized $3.0 million and $4.3 million, respectively, for index-based changes in rent, maintenance, real estate taxes, insurance and other charges included in the lease as well as rental expenses related to short term leases.

During the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2021, we recognized impairment charges totaling $0.6 million associated with showroom-level ROU assets that are included as part of selling, general and administrative expenses. We did not recognize any impairment charges associated with showroom-level ROU assets during fiscal year 2021 as we did not adopt the guidance in ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) until fiscal 2022.

The following table discloses the location and amount of our operating lease costs within our condensed consolidated balance sheets:

Severance Contingency

The Company has various employment agreements with its senior level executives. A number of these agreements have severance provisions, ranging from 12 to 18 months of salary, in the event those employees are terminated without cause. The total amount of exposure to the Company under these agreements was ~~$3,165,978~~$4.7 million at ~~November~~August 1, ~~2020~~2021 if all executives with employment agreements were terminated without cause and the full amount of severance was payable.

Legal Contingency

The Company is involved in various legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. Management cannot presently predict the outcome of these matters, although management believes, based in part on the advice of counsel, that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTE 8 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Common Stock Warrants

In fiscal 2020, the Company issued 18,166 warrants to a third party in connection with previous equity raise. These warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes model. The warrants had a fair value of approximately $130,000. Of these warrants, 17,396 were exercised on May 14, 2019.

The warrants may be exercised at any time following the date of issuance during the period prior to their expiration date. The fair value of each warrant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes model. Expected volatilities are based on comparable companies’ historical volatility, with consideration of the Company’s volatility, which management believes represents the most accurate basis for estimating expected future volatility under the current circumstances. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. treasury yield in effect at the time of the grant.

Stock Options

In June 2019, the Company granted 495,366 non-statutory stock options to certain officers of the Company with an option price of $38.10 per share. 100% of the stock options are subject to vesting on the ~~first trading day after~~third anniversary of the date ~~on which~~of grant if the officers is still employed by the Company and the average closing price of the Company’s common stock ~~price~~for the prior 40 consecutive trading days has been at least $75 ~~for 60 consecutive trading days so long as this goal has been attained~~ by the third anniversary of the grant. Both the employment and the market condition must be satisfied no later than June 5, ~~2022~~2024 or the options will terminate. These options were valued using a Monte Carlo simulation model to account for the path dependent market conditions that stipulate when and whether or not the options shall vest.

The 495,366 stock options were modified in fiscal 2021 to extend the term of the options through June 5, 2024. This resulted in additional compensation of approximately $874,000, of which, $315,000 was recorded upon modification and the remaining expense to be recognized over the remaining expected term. The ~~modification~~market condition was met on June 5, 2021, which was the date on which the average closing price of the ~~option term resulted in approximately $0.4 million in~~Company’s common stock had been at least $75 for 40 consecutive trading days. The options will vest and become exercisable on June 5, 2022 as long as the officers are still employed on that date. As a result of the market condition being met, the Company accelerated the amortization and recognized additional ~~equity~~stock-based compensation expense ~~recorded~~ during the thirteen weeks ended ~~November~~August 1, ~~2020.~~2021 of approximately $0.2 million.

In December 2019, SAC LLC distributed the shares of the Company’s common stock it held. In connection with the distribution, officers of the Company agreed to exchange and modify options that were held at SAC LLC for shares of vested common stock of the Company. Pursuant to the exchange, SAC LLC transferred 175,478 shares of common stock to the Company and the Company immediately cancelled these shares. The Company then issued to the former option holders an equivalent number of shares under the Plan and withheld 73,507 shares to satisfy taxes associated with the issuance.

In June 2020, the stockholders of the Company approved an amendment to the Plan that increased the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the Plan by 690,000 shares of common stock. The number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the Plan increased from 1,414,889 to 2,104,889 shares of common stock.

There ~~was an~~were no additional barter ~~arrangement~~arrangements entered into during the thirteen weeks ~~ended November 1 2020. During the thirteen~~and twenty-six weeks ended ~~November~~August 1, 2020, the Company exchanged $432,630 of inventory plus the cost of freight for certain media credits, related to the recent barter arrangement.

The Company accounts for barter transactions under ASC Topic No. 845 “Nonmonetary Transactions.” Barter transactions with commercial substance are recorded at the estimated fair value of the products exchanged, unless the products received have a more readily determinable estimated fair value. Revenue associated with barter transactions is recorded at the time of the exchange of the related assets.

NOTE 12 – REVENUE RECOGNITION

~~The Company implemented ASU 2015-04,~~ ~~Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606~~, “ASC 606”), in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 using modified retrospective method, which required the Company to apply the new guidance retrospectively to revenue transactions completed on or after the effective date. Adopting this new standard had no material financial impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements but did result in enhanced presentation and disclosures.

The Company’s revenue consists substantially of product sales. The Company reports product sales net of discounts and recognizes them at the point in time when control transfers to the customer, which occurs when shipment is confirmed.

Estimated refunds for returns and allowances are recorded using our historical return patterns, adjusting for any changes in returns policies. The Company records estimated refunds for net sales returns on a monthly basis as a reduction of net sales and cost of sales on the condensed consolidated statement of operations and an increase in inventory and customers returns liability on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. As of ~~November~~August 1, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~February 2, 2020,~~January 31, 2021, there was a returns allowance recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheet in the amount of ~~$1,593,840~~$1,534,078 and ~~$2,177,715,~~$2,226,723, respectively, which was included in accrued expenses and ~~$192,856~~$319,361 and ~~$442,390,~~$334,896, respectively, associated with sales returns included in merchandise inventories.

In some cases, deposits are received before the Company transfers control, resulting in contract liabilities. These contract liabilities are reported as deposits on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet. As of ~~November~~August 1, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~February 2, 2020,~~January 31, 2021, the Company recorded under customer deposit liabilities the amount of ~~$11,668,452~~$13,365,940 and ~~$1,653,597,~~$5,992,633, respectively. During the ~~thirty-nine~~twenty-six weeks ended ~~November~~August 1, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~November 3, 2019,~~August 2, 2020, the Company recognized approximately ~~$1,653,597~~$5,992,633 and ~~$1,059,957,~~$1,653,597, respectively, related to our customer deposits.

Upon adoption of ASC 606, we have elected the following accounting policies and practical expedients:

The Company recognizes shipping and handling expense as fulfilment activities (rather than as a promised good or service) when the activities are performed even if those activities are performed after the control of the good has been transferred. Accordingly, we record the expenses for shipping and handling activities at the same time we recognize revenue.

The Company excludes from the measurement of the transaction price all taxes imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction and collected by the Company from a customer, including sales, use, excise, value-added, and franchise taxes (collectively referred to as sales taxes).

The Company does not adjust revenue for the effects of any financing components if the contract has a duration of one year or less, as the Company receives payment from the customer within one year from when it transferred control of the related goods.

The Company offers its products through an inventory lean omni-channel platform that provides a seamless and meaningful experience to its customers in showrooms and through the internet. The ~~other~~Other channel predominantly represents sales through the use of ~~pop-up shops that typically average ten days at a time~~online pop-up-shops and shop-in-shops that are staffed with associates trained to demonstrate and sell our product.

~~The Company has evaluated events and transactions subsequent to November 1, 2020 through the date the condensed consolidated financial statements were issued.~~

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended ~~February 2, 2020.~~January 31, 2021. As discussed in the section titled “Forward-Looking Statements,” the following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, as well as assumptions that, if they never materialize or prove incorrect, could cause our results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include, but are not limited to, those identified in the Forward-Looking Statements section herein and set forth below and those discussed in the sections titled “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” ~~herein and~~ in our most recent report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

We operate on a 52- or 53-week fiscal year that ends on the Sunday closest to February 1. Each fiscal year generally is comprised of four 13-week fiscal quarters, although in the years with 53 weeks, the fourth quarter represents a 14-week period.

Overview

We are a technology driven company that designs, manufactures and sells unique, high quality furniture derived through our proprietary “Designed for Life” approach which results in products that are built to last a lifetime and designed to evolve as our customers’ lives do. Our current product offering is comprised of modular couches called Sactionals, premium foam beanbag chairs called Sacs, and their associated home decor accessories. Innovation is at the center of our design philosophy with all of our core products protected by a robust portfolio of utility patents. We market and sell our products primarily online directly at www.lovesac.com, supported by direct-to-consumer touch-feel points in the form of our own showrooms as well as through shop-in-shops and online pop-up-shops with third party ~~retailers.~~retailers. We believe that our ecommerce centric approach, coupled with our ability to deliver our large, upholstered products through express couriers, is unique to the furniture industry.

The name “Lovesac” was derived from our original innovative product, a premium foam beanbag chair, the Sac. The Sac was developed in 1995 and provided the foundation for the Company. We believe that the large size, comfortable foam filling and irreverent branding of our Sacs products have been instrumental in growing a loyal customer base and our positive, fun image. Sales of this product were $10.2 million and $27.7 million in the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 2020, as compared to $7.8 million and $23.4 million for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended November 3, 2019.

Our Sactional product line represents a majority of our sales. Sactionals are a couch system that consists of two components, seats and sides, which can be arranged, rearranged and expanded into thousands of configurations easily and without tools. Our Sactional products include a number of patented features relating to their geometry and modularity, coupling mechanisms and other features. We believe that these high quality, premium priced products enhance our brand image and customer loyalty and expect them to continue to garner a significant share of our sales. Our Sactionals represented 84.7% and 84.1% of our sales for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 2020, respectively or $63.3 million and $160.7 million as compared to 82.8% and 80.9% of sales for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended November 3, 2019 or $43.1 million and $114.3 million, respectively.

Sacs and Sactionals come in a wide variety of colors and fabrics that allow consumers to customize their purchases in numerous configurations and styles. We provide lifetime warranties on our Sactional frames and the foam used in both product lines, and 3-year warranties on our covers. Our Designed for Life trademark reflects our dynamic product line that is built to last and evolve throughout a customer’s life. Customers can continually update their Sacs and Sactionals with new covers, additions, and configurations to accommodate changes in their family and housing situations.

We believe that our products complement one another and have generated a loyal customer base, evidenced by our recent estimate of 35% of our transactions in fiscal 2020 from repeat customers. We believe the strength of our brand is reflected in the number of customers who routinely share their purchases of Lovesac products with their friends through social media, often displaying our logos or company name in their posts. Our customers include celebrities and other influencers who support our brand through postings made on an uncompensated and unsolicited basis.

We market and sell our products through 107 showrooms at top tier malls, lifestyle centers and street locations in 36 states in the U.S. Our modern, efficient showrooms are designed to appeal to millennials and other purchasers looking for comfortable, enduring, premium furniture. They showcase the different sizes of our Sacs, the myriad forms into which our Sactionals can be configured, and the large variety of fabrics that can be used to cover our products. Our retail showrooms are technology driven and focus on educating prospective customers about the many benefits of our unique products, enabling us to require just 498 to 1,794 square feet for each showroom. All of our showroom locations closed in March 2020 as a result of COVID-19, as further discussed below. All of our showrooms have since reopened to walk-in phase. We have followed and will continue to follow the guidance of federal, state, and local governments as well as local health organizations, to determine the operating status of our showrooms.

Through our direct-to-consumer sales approach, we also generate significant interest and demand and sell our products through our ecommerce platform. We believe our products are uniquely suited to this channel. Each of our Sactionals components weighs less than 50 pounds upon shipping and our foam-based Sacs can be reduced to one-eighth of their normal size. With furniture especially suited to ecommerce applications, our sales completed through this channel accounted for 34.4% and 53.3% of total sales for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 2020; up from 21.9% and 20.8% for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended November 3, 2019. Our showrooms and other direct advertising and marketing efforts work in concert to drive brand and product research as well as customer conversion in ecommerce. As a result of COVID-19, we had shifted the focus of our salesforce to our ecommerce platform when our showrooms were closed and experienced accelerated sales growth through this channel. We have adapted our systems, technology and logistics capabilities to manage the increase in online demand. During the thirteen weeks ended November 1, 2020, we launched a new ecommerce platform partnering with Adobe and Magento which contains numerous enhancements including the launch of an interactive 3D visualization product configuration experience that brings the customization found in showrooms to life on our website. We plan to continue to develop our digital capabilities and invest in our technological infrastructure.

We also utilize other sales channels, such as pop-up shops and shop-in-shops and will continue to explore other partnerships and opportunities to promote our products and to facilitate customers interacting with our products. The pop-up shop showrooms display select Sacs and Sactionals and are staffed with associates trained to demonstrate and sell our products. Unlike the pop-up shops which are typically 10-day shows, and pop-up locations, shop-in-shops are designed to be in permanent locations carrying the same digital technology of our showrooms and are also staffed with associates trained to demonstrate and sell our products. We have operated pop-up shop showrooms with Costco, as well as temporary online pop-ups on Costco.com. In the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 2020, we hosted 0 and 154 pop-up shop showrooms at Costco locations respectively, down from 192 and 560 Costco shop-in-shops hosted in the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended November 3, 2019, respectively. We expect to continue hosting temporary online pop-ups on Costco.com and do not currently expect any contribution from Costco showroom pop-up shops for the balance of the fiscal year. We also have an ongoing relationship with Macy’s to operate shop-in-shop showrooms. Other sales which includes pop-up shop sales and shop-in-shop sales accounted for 10.0% and 8.7% of our total sales for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 2020, respectively, down from 15.8% and 15.0% for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended November 3, 2019, respectively.

Net income was $2.5 million and net loss was $7.0 million for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 2020, respectively, and net losses were $6.7 million and $20.6 million for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended November 3, 2019, respectively. SG&A as a percent to net sales for the thirteen weeks ended November 1, 2020 decreased 12.3% primarily due to leveraging employment costs, rent, selling related expenses such as credit card fees and pop-up shop fees, and travel expenses, partially offset by an increase in equity compensation. SG&A as a percent to net sales for the thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 2020 decreased 10.5% primarily due to leveraging employment costs, rent, selling related expenses such as credit card fees and pop-up shop fees, equity based compensation and travel expenses, partially offset by increases in insurance and computer expense related to infrastructure investments.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of COVID-19 as a global pandemic and, in the following weeks, ~~many~~the U.S. ~~states~~federal, state and ~~localities~~local governments issued lockdown orders and related safety measures impacting the operations of our ~~stores~~showrooms and consumer demand. ~~Since then,~~Although there has been a general improvement in conditions, there continues to be significant uncertainties around the ~~COVID-19 situation within~~scope and severity of the ~~U.S. has rapidly escalated.

We ~~have followed and will~~ continue to follow the guidance ofissued by federal, state and local governments ~~as well as~~and health organizations and have taken measures to ~~determine~~protect the ~~operating status~~safety of our showrooms. Additionally, we implemented a reduction in workforce of approximately 447 part time employees (representing 57% of our total headcount) as well as a temporary reduction in executive cash compensation. Cash compensation was reduced by 20% for Shawn Nelson, Chief Executive Officer, Jack Krause, Presidentassociates and Chief Operating Officer, and Donna Dellomo, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. The base salaries of all other senior management and full-time headquarter team members has been temporarily reduced by graduated amounts. Our Board of Directors has also agreed to a temporary reduction of its retainer and monitoring fees and an extension of the associated payment timeline. As of November 1, 2020, we had hired 348 part time showroom associates to assist with showroom sales. As of October 1, 2020, we restored cash compensation for all headquarter associates other than senior management. We continue to monitor the situation closely and it is possible that we will implement further measures.customers.

In an effort to appropriately manage the business in this uncertain environment, we tightly managed our cash outlay. In addition to temporary reduction in compensation of employees and Board of Directors, we also tightly managed inventory purchases, marketing and promotion spend, working capital and capital expenditures. As a result, we had a cash and cash equivalent position of $47.7 million as of November 1, 2020.

Product Overview

Our products serve as a set of building blocks that can be rearranged, restyled and re-upholstered with any new setting, mitigating constant changes in fashion and style. They are built to last and evolve throughout a customer’s life.

●

Sactionals. Our Sactional product line currently represents a majority of our net sales. We believe our Sactionals platform is unlike competing products in its adaptability yet is comparable aesthetically to similarly priced premium couches and sectionals. Our Sactional products include a number of patented features relating to their geometry and modularity, coupling mechanisms and other features. Utilizing only two, standardized pieces, “seats” and “sides,” and approximately 200 high quality, tight-fitting covers that are removable, washable, and changeable, customers can create numerous permutations of a sectional couch with minimal effort. Customization is further enhanced with our specialty-shaped modular offerings, such as our wedge seat and roll arm side. Our custom features and accessories can be added easily and quickly to a Sactional to meet endless design, style, storage and utility preferences, reflecting our Designed for Life philosophy. Sactionals are built to meet the highest durability and structural standards applicable to fixed couches. Sactionals are comprised of standardized units and we guarantee their compatibility over time, which we believe is a major pillar of their value proposition to the consumer. Our Sactionals represented 87.0% and 88.0% of our sales for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2021 as compared to 86.4% and 83.7% of our sales for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 2020, respectively.

●

Sacs. We believe that our Sacs product line is a category leader in oversized beanbags. The Sac product line offers 6 different sizes ranging from 22 pounds to 95 pounds with capacity to seat 3+ people on the larger model Sacs. Filled with Durafoam, a blend of shredded foam, Sacs provide serene comfort and guaranteed durability. Their removable covers are machine washable and may be easily replaced with a wide selection of cover offerings.

●

Accessories. Our accessories complement our Sacs and Sactionals by increasing their adaptability to meet evolving consumer demands and preferences. Our current product line offers Sactional-specific drink holders, Footsac blankets, decorative pillows, fitted seat tables and ottomans in varying styles and finishes and our unique Sactionals Power Hub, providing our customers with the flexibility to customize their furnishings with decorative and practical add-ons to meet evolving style preferences.

Sales Channels

We offer our products through an omni-channel platform that provides a seamless and meaningful experience to our customers online and in-store. Our distribution strategy allows us to reach customers through four distinct, brand-enhancing channels.

●

Ecommerce. Through our ecommerce channel, we believe we are able to significantly enhance the consumer shopping experience for home furnishings, driving deeper brand engagement and loyalty, while also realizing more favorable margins than our showroom locations. We believe our robust technological capabilities position us well to benefit from the growing consumer preference to transact at home and via mobile devices. With furniture especially suited to ecommerce applications, our net sales completed through this channel accounted for 29% and 30% of total net sales for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2021, respectively, down from 74% and 66% of total net sales for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 2020, respectively.

●

Showrooms. We market and sell our products through 123 showrooms at top tier malls, lifestyle centers and street locations in 38 states in the U.S. We carefully select the best small-footprint retail locations in high-end malls and lifestyle centers for our showrooms. Compared to traditional retailers, our showrooms require significantly less square footage because of our need to have only a few in-store sample configurations for display and our ability to stack our inventory for immediate sale. The architecture and layout of these showrooms is designed to communicate our brand personality and key product features. Our goal is to educate first-time customers, creating an environment where people can touch, feel, read, and understand the technology behind our products. We are updating and remodeling many of our showrooms to reflect our new showroom concept, which emphasizes our unique product platform, and will be the standard for future showrooms. Our new showroom concept utilizes technology in more experiential ways to increase traffic and sales. Net sales completed through this channel accounted for 61% and 60% of total net sales for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2021, respectively, up from 21% and 27% of total net sales for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 2020, respectively.

●

Other touchpoints. We augment our showrooms with other touchpoint strategies including online pop-up-shops and shop-in-shops. We utilize in store pop-up-shops to increase the number of locations where customers can experience and purchase our products, a low-cost alternative to drive brand awareness, in store sales, and ecommerce sales. These in-store pop-up-shops are staffed similarly to our showrooms with associates trained to demonstrate and sell our products and promote our brand. Unlike the in-store pop-up-shops which are typically 10-day shows, and pop-up locations, shop-in-shops are designed to be in permanent locations carrying the same digital technology of our showrooms and are also staffed with associates trained to demonstrate and sell our products. Shop-in-shops require less capital expenditure to open a productive space to drive brand awareness and touchpoint opportunities for demonstrating and selling our products. We did not host any in-store pop-up-shops in the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2021. We hosted 19 and 154 in store pop-up-shops at Costco for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 2020, respectively.

We operated 2 and 4 temporary online pop-up-shops on Costco.com for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2021, respectively, up from 1 and 2 for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 2020, respectively. We expect to continue hosting temporary online pop-ups on Costco.com and do not currently expect any further contribution from Costco for in-store pop-up-shops. We operated 4 Best Buy shop-in-shops for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2021, respectively, up from 3 for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 2020, respectively. Other sales which includes pop-up-shop sales and shop-in-shop sales accounted for 10.1% and 10.3% of our total sales for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2021, respectively, up from 4.9% and 7.9% of our total sales for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 2020, respectively.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are “Non-GAAP Measures” that are supplemental measures of financial performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. We believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful measures of operating performance, as they eliminate expenses that are not reflective of the underlying business performance, facilitate a comparison of our operating performance on a consistent basis from period-to-period and provide for a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. Additionally, EBITDA is frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry. We use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, alongside GAAP measures such as gross profit, operating income (loss) and net income (loss), to measure and evaluate our operating performance and we believe these measures are useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance.

These Non-GAAP Measures should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss) or net income (loss) per share as a measure of financial performance, cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP. They should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. Additionally, our Non-GAAP Measures are not intended to be measures of free cash flow for management’s discretionary use, as they do not consider certain cash requirements such as tax payments and debt service requirements and certain other cash costs that recur in the future. Our Non-GAAP Measures contain certain other limitations, including the failure to reflect our cash expenditures, cash requirements for working capital needs and cash costs to replace assets being depreciated and amortized. In addition, our Non-GAAP Measures exclude certain non-recurring and other charges.

In the future, we may incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in our Non-GAAP Measures. Our presentation of our Non-GAAP Measures should not be construed to imply that our future results will be unaffected by any such adjustments. Management compensates for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and by using our Non-GAAP Measures as supplemental information. Our Non-GAAP Measures are not necessarily comparable to other similarly titled captions of other companies due to different methods of calculation.

(3)

We define “EBITDA” as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. We define “Adjusted EBITDA” as EBITDA adjusted for the impact of certain non-cash and other items that we do not consider in our evaluation of ongoing operating performance. These items include management fees, equity-based compensation expense, write-offs of property and equipment, deferred rent, financing expenses and certain other charges and gains that we do not believe reflect our underlying business performance.

How We Assess the Performance of Our Business

~~In assessing the performance of our business, we~~We consider a variety of financial and operating measures, including the ~~following:~~following, to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, formulate business plans, and make strategic decisions.

Net Sales

Net sales reflect our sale of merchandise plus shipping and handling revenue less returns and discounts. Sales made at Company operated showrooms, including shop-in-shops and pop-up shops, and via the web are recognized in accordance with the guidance set forth in ASC 606, which is typically at the point of transference of title when the goods are shipped.

Gross Profit

Gross profit is equal to our net sales less cost of merchandise sold. Gross profit as a percentage of our net sales is referred to as gross margin. In September 2018, the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative began imposing a 10 percent ad valorem duty on a subset of products imported from China, inclusive of various furniture product categories. In September 2019, the Office of U.S. Trade Representative imposed an additional 15 percent ad valorem duty on products imported from China.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses include all operating costs, other than advertising and marketing expense, not included in cost of merchandise sold. These expenses include all payroll and payroll-related expenses; showroom expenses, including occupancy costs related to showroom operations, such as rent and common area maintenance; occupancy and expenses related to many of our operations at our headquarters, including utilities, ~~equity based~~equity-based compensation, financing related expense and public company expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales is usually higher in lower volume quarters and lower in higher volume quarters because a significant portion of the costs are relatively fixed.

Our recent revenue growth has been accompanied by increased selling, general and administrative expenses. The most significant components of these increases are payroll and rent costs. We expect these expenses, as well as rent expense associated with the opening of new showrooms, to increase as we grow our business. We expect to leverage total selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales as sales volumes continue to grow. We expect to continue to invest in infrastructure to support the Company’s growth. These investments will lessen the impact of expense leveraging during the period of investment with the greater impact of expense leveraging happening after the period of investment. However, total selling, general and administrative expenses generally will leverage during the periods of investments with the most deleverage occurring in the first three quarters of the fiscal year, and the greatest leverage occurring in the fourth quarter.

Advertising and Marketing Expense

Advertising and marketing expense include digital, social, and traditional advertising and marketing initiatives that cover all of our business channels. Advertising and marketing expense is expected to continue to increase as a percentage to sales as we continue to invest in advertising and marketing which has accelerated sales growth.

Thirteen weeks ended ~~November~~August 1, ~~2020~~2021 Compared to the Thirteen weeks ended ~~November 3, 2019~~August 2, 2020

Net sales

Net sales increased ~~$22.6~~$40.5 million, or ~~43.5%~~65.4%, to ~~$74.7~~$102.4 million in the thirteen weeks ended ~~November~~August 1, ~~2020~~2021 as compared to ~~$52.1~~$61.9 million in the thirteen weeks ended ~~November 3, 2019.~~August 2, 2020. The increase in overall net sales was driven by our Showroom and Other channel sales, partially offset by the decrease in Internet sales. New customers increased by ~~34.0%~~16.5% in the thirteen weeks ended ~~November~~August 1, ~~2020~~2021 as compared to ~~12.1%~~47.8% in the thirteen weeks ended ~~November 3, 2019.~~August 2, 2020 driven by the successful Heroes’ campaign. We had ~~107~~123 and 8497 showrooms as of ~~November~~August 1, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~November 3, 2019,~~August 2, 2020, respectively. We opened 107 additional showrooms, and we did not close or remodel any showrooms in the thirteen weeks ended ~~November~~August 1, 2021, as compared to opening 8 additional showrooms, closing 2 showrooms and remodeling 1 showroom in the thirteen weeks ended August 2, 2020. ~~Showrooms~~Showroom sales increased ~~$9.1~~$49.7 million, or ~~27.9%~~387.1%, to ~~$41.5~~$62.6 million in the thirteen weeks ended ~~November~~August 1, ~~2020~~2021 as compared to ~~$32.5~~$12.9 million in the thirteen weeks ended ~~November 3, 2019.~~August 2, 2020. This increase was due in large part to ~~our~~ comparable ~~showroom point of~~ sales ~~transaction~~ increase of ~~$7.4~~$40.3 million, or ~~25.5%~~290.9%, to ~~$36.6~~$54.1 million in the thirteen weeks ended ~~November~~August 1, ~~2020~~2021, compared to ~~$29.1~~$13.8 million in the thirteen weeks ended ~~November 3, 2019 as well as the addition~~August 2, 2020, related to higher point of ~~23 new showrooms as compared to same in the prior year.~~sales transactions with lower promotional discounting. Point of sales transactions represent orders placed through our showrooms which does not always reflect the point at which control transfers to the customer, which occurs upon shipment being confirmed. See Note 12 to the condensed consolidated financial statements. We believe point of sales transactions is a more accurate way to measure showroom performance and how our showroom associates are incentivized. Retail sales per selling square foot increased ~~$16,~~$418, or ~~3.5%~~215.6%, to ~~$482~~$611 in the thirteen weeks ended ~~November~~August 1, ~~2020~~2021 as ~~a result of our comparable showroom point of sales transaction increase and point of sales transaction in the 23 new showrooms,~~ compared to ~~$466~~$194 in the thirteen weeks ended ~~November 3, 2019.~~August 2, 2020. Total number of units sold at point of ~~sales~~ transaction increased by approximately ~~3.3%~~222.6% driven by higher comparable sales. The increase in comparable sales, retail sales per selling square foot and ~~new~~total number of units sold over prior years is the result of limited showroom ~~sales volumes.~~operations due to COVID-19 in the prior year period. Internet sales (sales made directly to customers through our ecommerce channel) ~~increased $14.3~~decreased $16.6 million, or ~~125.2%~~36.0%, to ~~$25.7~~$29.5 million in the thirteen weeks ended ~~November~~August 1, ~~2020~~2021 as compared to ~~$11.4~~$46.1 million ~~for~~in the thirteen weeks ended ~~November 3, 2019. We believe that the increase~~August 2, 2020. The decrease in Internet sales was due primarily to ~~our partial~~the shift of sales into the internet channel in prior year as a result of the limited showroom ~~closures related~~operations due to ~~the impact of COVID-19 and our increased advertising and marketing initiatives.~~COVID-19. Other sales, which include ~~pop-up shop~~pop-up-shop sales and shop-in-shop sales ~~decreased $0.7~~increased $7.4 million, or ~~8.7%~~243.4%, to ~~$7.5~~$10.4 million in the thirteen weeks ended ~~November~~August 1, ~~2020~~2021 as compared to ~~$8.2~~$3.0 million in the thirteen weeks ended ~~November 3, 2019.~~August 2, 2020. This ~~decrease~~increase was due to ~~no Costco in store pop-up shops as a result of vendor negotiations partially offset by shop-in-shops and the addition of~~hosting 1 additional temporary online ~~pop-ups~~pop-up-shop on ~~Costco.com.~~Costco.com compared to the prior year period and sales increase from shop-in-shop locations that were closed in the prior year period due to COVID-19.

Gross profit

Gross profit increased ~~$15.1~~$28.0 million, or ~~57.3%~~90.1%, to ~~$41.3~~$59.0 million in the thirteen weeks ended ~~November~~August 1, ~~2020~~2021 from ~~$26.3~~$31.1 million in the thirteen weeks ended ~~November 3, 2019.~~August 2, 2020. Gross margin increased to ~~55.3%~~57.6% of net sales in the thirteen weeks ended ~~November~~August 1, ~~2020~~2021 from ~~50.4%~~50.1% of net sales in the thirteen weeks ended ~~November 3, 2019.~~August 2, 2020. The ~~487 basis point~~ increase in gross margin ~~versus the prior year period reflects 535~~percentage of 749 basis points improvement in gross profit as a result of a reduction in promotional discounts, positive mix impact and lower product costs related to vendor negotiated tariff mitigation initiatives, partially offsetwas primarily driven by an increase of approximately 48506 basis points due to lower promotional discounting, continuing vendor negotiations to assist with the mitigation of tariffs and continued shift of products from China to Vietnam, Malaysia, and Indonesia. Distribution expenses improved by 243 basis points over the prior year due to higher leverage of 793 basis points in warehousing and distribution ~~and~~costs, partially offset by the increase in inbound freight of 550 basis points due to escalating inbound container costs as well as some shift of inventory purchases back to China, which are impacted by the 25% tariff ~~related expenses.~~rate to help alleviate container congestion coming from our other overseas vendors.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased ~~$1.5~~$12.0 million, or ~~6.0%~~51.3%, to ~~$25.9~~$35.4 million in the thirteen weeks ended ~~November~~August 1, ~~2020~~2021 as compared to ~~$24.5~~$23.4 million in the prior year period. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily related to an increase in employment costs, ~~of $1.4~~overhead expenses, rent, and selling related expenses. Employment costs increased by $6.9 million driven by an increase in ~~equity compensation expense of $0.4~~new hires and variable compensation. Rent increased by $2.4 million related to ~~the modification~~our net addition of ~~stock options and $0.3~~26 showrooms. Selling related expenses increased $1.7 million ~~of increased rent associated with our 107 showrooms. Those expenses were partially offset by a decrease of expenses related~~due to ~~sales of $0.5 million consisting of a reduction of $0.9 million of pop-up shop sales agent fees related to the decrease in in-store pop-up sales offset by~~ an increase of ~~approximately $0.4~~$1.9 million in credit card fees related to the increase in ~~internet and showroom sales.~~sales, partially offset by a decrease of $0.2 million due to a lower fee structure relating to online pop-up shops at Costco.com. Overhead expenses ~~decreased approximately $0.2~~increased $1.0 million ~~principally~~consisting of an increase of $0.6 million in equity-based compensation related to ~~Covid-19 related~~an option trigger event that caused an acceleration of the recognition of stock option equity compensation expense, an increase of $0.4 million in infrastructure investments, and an increase of $0.1 million in travel ~~restrictions.~~expenses, partially offset by a decrease of $0.1 million in insurance expenses.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were ~~34.7%~~34.5% of net sales in the thirteen weeks ended ~~November~~August 1, ~~2020~~2021 as compared to ~~47.0%~~37.7% of net sales in the thirteen weeks ended ~~November 3, 2019.~~August 2, 2020. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses of ~~12.3%~~3.2% of net sales was primarily due to ~~leveraging employment costs partially related to temporary pay cuts~~higher leverage within infrastructure investments, rent, insurance and ~~reduction of part time sales associates in our showrooms, rent,~~ selling related expenses, ~~such as credit card fees and pop-up shop fees, and reduced travel,~~ partially offset by ~~an increase~~deleverage in ~~equity~~employment costs, equity-based compensation, and travel. The deleverage in certain expenses relate to the investments we are making into the business that were put on hold in the prior year relating to COVID-19 financial resilience measures and the acceleration of stock compensation expense related to stock options vesting as ~~noted above.~~a required market condition was achieved in the thirteen weeks ended August 1, 2021.

Advertising and Marketing

Advertising and marketing expenses increased ~~$3.7~~$5.9 million, or ~~51.2%~~81.9%, to ~~$11.0~~$13.0 million for the thirteen weeks ended August 1, 2021 as compared to $7.2 million in the thirteen weeks ended ~~November 1, 2020 compared to $7.3 million in the thirteen weeks ended November 3, 2019.~~August 2, 2020. The majority of the increase in advertising and marketing dollars relates to ~~increased media and direct~~the reinstatement of marketing spends as showroom locations are fully open in the current period versus the limited showroom operations due to ~~consumer programs which are expected to drive revenue beyond~~COVID-19 in the ~~period of the expense.~~prior year period. The ~~investments~~investment by quarter may vary greatly. Advertising and marketing expenses were ~~14.7%~~12.7% of net sales in the thirteen weeks ended ~~November~~August 1, ~~2020~~2021 as compared to ~~13.9%~~11.6% of net sales in the thirteen weeks ended ~~November 3, 2019.~~August 2, 2020. The majority of the increase in advertising and marketing as a percent of net sales is ~~principally due~~related to increased ~~rates~~media activities and higher media costs compared to the COVID-19 related marketing environment in ~~media coupled with increased media spending during key minor market share events.~~the prior year period.

Depreciation and amortization expenses

Depreciation and amortization expenses increased ~~$0.5~~$0.1 million, or ~~34.6% in the thirteen weeks ended November 1, 2020~~3.8%, to ~~$1.9 million compared to $1.4~~$1.6 million in the thirteen weeks ended ~~November 3, 2019.~~August 1, 2021 as compared to $1.5 million in the thirteen weeks ended August 2, 2020. The increase in depreciation and amortization expense principally relates to capital investments for new and remodeled showrooms.

Interest (expense) income, net

The ~~decrease~~increase in net interest ~~income~~expense from prior year was the result of a decrease in interest rates being earned on the Company’s cash and cash equivalents during the thirteen weeks ended ~~November~~August 1, ~~2020~~2021 as compared to the same period in the prior year.

Provision for income taxes

Income tax provision was less than ~~0.01%~~0.60% and ~~0.03%~~0.06% of sales for the thirteen weeks ended ~~November~~August 1, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~November 3, 2019,~~August 2, 2020, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

Our business relies on cash flows from operations, our revolving line of credit (see “Revolving Line of Credit” below) and securities issuances as our primary sources of liquidity. Our primary cash needs are for advertising and marketing, inventory, payroll, showroom rent, capital expenditures associated with opening new showrooms and updating existing showrooms, as well as infrastructure and information technology. The most significant components of our working capital are cash and cash equivalents, inventory, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other current liabilities and customer deposits. Borrowings generally increase in our third fiscal quarter as we prepare for the holiday selling season, which is in our fourth fiscal quarter. We believe that cash expected to be generated from operations, the availability under our revolving line of credit and our existing cash balances are sufficient to meet working capital requirements and anticipated capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no material off balance sheet arrangements as of ~~November~~August 1, ~~2020,~~2021, except for ~~operating leases and~~ employment agreements entered in the ordinary course of business.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in conformity with GAAP. Certain accounting policies and estimates are particularly important to the understanding of our financial position and results of operations and require the application of significant judgment by our management or can be materially affected by changes from period to period in economic factors or conditions that are outside of our control. As a result, they are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. In applying these policies, management uses their judgment to determine the appropriate assumptions to be used in the determination of certain estimates. Those estimates are based on our historical operations, our future business plans and projected financial results, the terms of existing contracts, observance of trends in the industry, information provided by our customers and information available from other outside sources, as appropriate. Please see Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on April ~~29, 2020~~14, 2021 for a complete description of our significant accounting policies. There have been no material changes to the significant accounting policies during the ~~thirty-nine~~twenty-six weeks ended ~~November~~August 1, ~~2020.~~2021.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

~~Except as described below,~~Refer to Note 2, Recent Accounting Pronouncements, contained in the ~~Company has considered all other recently issued~~Condensed Consolidated Notes to Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a full description of the recent accounting pronouncements and ~~does not believe the adoption~~our expectation of ~~such pronouncements will have a material~~their impact, ~~on its financial statements. The Company, as an emerging growth company, has elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised financial accounting standards.~~

~~In February 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02,~~ ~~Leases (Topic 842)~~ amending lease guidance to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. ASU No. 2019-10 extended the effective date to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted. The Company will adopt this standard in fiscal 2022. Management has evaluated the impact ASU No. 2016-02 will have on these condensed consolidated financial statements. Based on the initial evaluation, we have determined that adopting this standard will have a material impactif any, on our ~~condensed consolidated balance sheet as we have a significant number~~results of ~~operating leases.~~

~~While we continue to assess all of the effects of adoption, we currently believe the most significant effects relate to the recognition of new Right of Use “ROU” assets~~operations and lease liabilities on our balance sheet for our showroom and office real estate leases. We do not expect a significant change in our leasing activities between now and adoption. On adoption, we currently expect to recognize additional liabilities of approximately $91 million, of which $14 million will be short-term and $77 million will be long-term with corresponding ROU assets of the same amount based on the present value of the remaining minimum rental payments under current leasing standards for existing operating leases. The new standard also provides practical expedients for an entity’s ongoing accounting. We currently expect to elect the short-term lease recognition exemption for all leases that qualify. This means, for those leases that qualify, we will not recognize ROU assets or lease liabilities, and this includes not recognizing ROU assets or lease liabilities for existing short-term leases of those assets in transition. We also currently expect to elect the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for all of our leases.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

~~Not Applicable.~~In the normal course of business, we are exposed to a variety of risks, including fluctuations in interest rates that could affect our financial position and results of operations.

Interest Rate Risk

Debt

Interest rate risk exists primarily through our borrowing activities. We use U.S. dollar denominated borrowings to fund our working capital and investment needs. It is anticipated that the fair market value of any future debt under the line of credit will continue to be immaterially affected by fluctuations in interest rates and we do not believe that the value of such debt would be significantly impacted by current market events. Under the line of credit, the Company may elect that revolving loans bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the base rate plus the applicable margin or the LIBOR rate plus the applicable margin. The applicable margin is based on tier’s relating to the quarterly average excess availability. The tiers range from 2.00% to 2.25%. We currently do not engage in any interest rate hedging activity and we have no intention of doing so in the foreseeable future. A hypothetical 100 basis point change (up or down) in the one-month LIBOR rate would not have a material effect on our condensed consolidated results of operations.

LIBOR Transition

Borrowings under our revolving line of credit have an interest rate tied to LIBOR, which is the subject of recent national, international, and other regulatory guidance and proposals for reform. These reforms and other pressure may cause LIBOR to disappear entirely or to perform differently than in the past. It is expected that certain banks will stop reporting information used to set LIBOR at the end of 2021 when their reporting obligations cease. This will effectively end the usefulness of LIBOR and end its publication. If LIBOR is no longer available, or otherwise at our option, we will pursue alternative interest rate calculations in our Credit Agreement, including the use of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR). A number of other alternatives to LIBOR have been proposed or are being developed, but it is not clear which, if any, will be adopted. Any of these alternative methods may result in interest payments that are higher than expected or that do not otherwise correlate over time with the payments that would have been made on such indebtedness for the interest periods if the applicable LIBOR rate was available in its current form.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (our principal executive ~~officer~~officer) and Chief Financial Officer (our principal financial ~~officer,~~officer), has evaluated the effectiveness of 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”)), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on such evaluation, our ~~principal executive officer~~Chief Executive Officer and ~~principal financial officer~~Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the thirteen ~~and thirty-nine~~ weeks ended ~~November~~August 1, ~~2020~~2021 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 may become involved in legal proceedings or be subject to claims arising in the ordinary course of our business. We are not presently a party to any legal proceedings that, if determined adversely to us, would individually or taken together have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, financial condition or cash flows. Regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

~~There~~Other than as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended ~~February 2, 2020 and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarterly periods ended May 3, 2020 and August 2, 2020~~January 31, 2021.
