NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1—THE COMPANY

Nature of Business

RH, a Delaware corporation, together with its subsidiaries (collectively, “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”), is a leading retailer and luxury lifestyle brand operating primarily in the home furnishings retailer that offersmarket. Our curated and fully integrated assortments are presented consistently across our sales channels, including our retail locations, websites and Sourcebooks. We offer merchandise assortments across a growing number of categories, including furniture, lighting, textiles, bathware, décor, outdoor and garden, tableware, and baby, child and teen furnishings. These products are sold through the Company’s stores, catalogs and websites.

On May 27, 2016, the Company acquired a controlling interest in Design Investors WW Acquisition Company, LLC, which owns the business operating under the name “Waterworks”. Refer to Note 3—Business Combination.

As of October 28, 2017, the CompanyJuly 29, 2023, we operated a total of 84 retail68 RH Galleries and 31 outlet40 RH Outlet stores, in 32 states, the District of Columbia and Canada, and includes 15one RH Guesthouse, as well as 14 Waterworks showrooms inShowrooms throughout the United States, Canada and in the U.K.,United Kingdom and had sourcing operations in Shanghai and Hong Kong.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared from the Company’sour records and, in management’sour senior leadership team’s opinion, include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly state the Company’sour financial position as of October 28, 2017,July 29, 2023, and the results of operations for the three and ninesix months ended October 28, 2017July 29, 2023 and October 29, 2016. The Company’sJuly 30, 2022. Our current fiscal year, which consists of 53 weeks, ends on February 3, 20182024 (“fiscal 2017”2023”).

The condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our wholly-owned subsidiaries, as well as the financial information of variable interest entities (“VIEs”) where we represent the primary beneficiary and have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s performance. Accordingly, all intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated through the consolidation process.

Certain information and disclosures normally included in the notes to annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted for purposes of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements, in conformity with GAAP, requires our senior leadership team to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences could be material to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

We have assessed various accounting estimates and other matters, including those that require consideration of forecasted financial information, using information that is reasonably available to us at this time. The accounting estimates and other matters we have assessed include, but were not limited to, sales return reserve, inventory reserve, allowance for doubtful accounts, goodwill, and intangible and other long-lived assets. Our current assessment of these estimates is included in our condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended July 29, 2023. As additional information becomes available to us, our future assessment of these estimates, as well as other factors, could change and the results of any such change could materially and adversely impact our condensed consolidated financial statements in future reporting periods.

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’sour Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 28, 20172023 (the “2016“2022 Form 10-K”). Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current period presentation. Refer to “Revision” below.

The results of operations for the three and ninesix months ended October 28, 2017July 29, 2023, presented herein, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year. Our business, like the businesses of retailers generally, is subject to uncertainty surrounding the financial impact of the factors as discussed in Business Conditions below.

PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

2023 SECOND QUARTER FORM 10-Q | 11

Table of Contents

Business Conditions

RevisionThere are a number of macroeconomic factors and uncertainties affecting the overall business climate as well as our business, including increased inflation, substantially higher interest and mortgage rates, and unpredictability in the global financial markets related to the foregoing as well as, among other things, the recent failures of several financial institutions. We experienced increased demand for our products during the pandemic, and there have been significant shifts in consumer consumption patterns with the easing of the pandemic including increases in travel and services rather than spending on home furnishings. These and other macroeconomic factors may have a number of adverse effects on macroeconomic conditions and markets in which we operate, including the housing market, with the potential for an economic recession and a sustained downturn in the housing market. Factors such as a slowdown in the housing market or negative trends in stock market prices could have an adverse impact on demand for our products. We believe that these macroeconomic and other factors have contributed to the slowdown in demand that we have experienced in our business over the last several fiscal quarters.

DuringOur decisions regarding the fourthsources and uses of capital will continue to reflect and adapt to changes in market conditions and our business, including further developments with respect to macroeconomic factors.

For more information, refer to the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our 2022 Form 10-K.

NOTE 2—RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

New Accounting Standards or Updates Adopted

Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations

In September 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2022-04Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations (“ASU 2022-04”). ASU 2022-04 requires entities to disclose a program’s nature, activity during the period, changes from period to period and potential magnitude. Under ASU 2022-04, the buyer in a supplier finance program is required to disclose information about the key terms of the program, outstanding confirmed amounts as of the end of the period, a rollforward of such amounts during each annual period, and a description of where in the financial statements outstanding amounts are presented. With the exception of the disclosure of rollforward information, the guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and is required to be applied retrospectively to all periods for which a balance sheet is presented. The rollforward requirement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and is required to be applied prospectively. We adopted ASU 2022-04 in the first quarter of fiscal 2016, management determined that2023.

Supplier Finance Program

We facilitate a voluntary supply chain financing program (the “Financing Program”) with a third-party financial institution (the “Bank”) to provide participating suppliers with the Company had incorrectly reported negative cash balances dueopportunity to outstanding checksreceive early payment on invoices, net of a discount charged to the supplier by the Bank. We are not a party to the supplier agreements with the Bank, and the terms of our payment obligations to suppliers are not impacted by a supplier’s participation in the Financing Program. Our responsibility is limited to making payments to the Bank on the terms originally negotiated with our suppliers, which are typically either 30 days or 60 days. There are no assets pledged as security or other forms of guarantees provided under the Financing Program.

The Financing Program is not indicative of a borrowing arrangement and the liabilities under the Financing Program are included in accounts payableand accrued expenses financial statement line item in its on the condensed consolidated balance sheets without properly applying the limited right of offset against cash and cash equivalents in accordance with ASC 210Balance Sheet. This resulted in an overstatement of cash and cash equivalents and an overstatement of accounts payable and accrued expenses on its condensed consolidated balance sheets, as well as a misstatement of the cash provided byassociated payments are included within operating activities on the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. There was no impact onAs of July 29, 2023 and January 28, 2023, supplier invoices that have been confirmed as valid under the condensed consolidated statementsFinancing Program included in accounts payableand accrued expenses were $20 million and $26 million, respectively.

NOTE 2—RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Stock-Based CompensationInitial Measurement

In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2016-09Improvements to Employee Share Based Payment Accounting (“ASU 2016-09”). The new guidance simplifies several aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. One provision requires that the excess income tax benefits and tax deficiencies related to share-based payments be recognized within income tax expense in the statement of operations, rather than within additional paid-in capital on the balance sheet. The new guidance was effective for the Company beginning on January 29, 2017. As a result of the adoption of this new guidance, the Company recognized an excess tax benefit of $1.9 million and $4.3 million in the provision for income taxes as a discrete item during the three and nine months ended October 28, 2017, respectively. These amounts may not necessarily be indicative of future amounts that may be recognized as any excess tax benefits recognized would be dependent on future stock price, employee exercise behavior and applicable tax rates. As permitted, the Company elected to classify excess tax benefits (shortfalls) as an operating activity in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows instead of as a financing activity on a prospective basis and did not retrospectively adjust prior periods.

In May 2017,August 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2017-09—Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718)ASU 2023-05—Business Combinations—Joint Venture Formations (Subtopic 805-60): Scope of Modification AccountingRecognition and Initial Measurement (“ASU 2023-05”). The new guidance clarifies when modification accounting should be applied for changesASU 2023-05 applies to terms or conditionsthe formation of a share-based payment award.“joint venture” or a “corporate joint venture” and requires a joint venture to initially measure all contributions received upon its formation at fair value. The guidance does not impact accounting by the venturers. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginningapplicable to joint venture entities with a formation date on or after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period, with early adoption permitted. The standard will be applied prospectively. The Company is evaluating the impact of adopting this new accounting standard on its consolidated financial statements.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

In May 2014, the FASB and International Accounting Standards Board issued their converged accounting standard update on revenue recognition, Accounting Standards Update 2014-09—Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This guidance outlines a single comprehensive model for companies to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The core principle of the revenue model is that revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of a good or service. A customer obtains control when it has the ability to direct the use of and obtain the benefits from the good or service. Under the new guidance, transfer of control is no longer the same as transfer of risks and rewards as indicated in the prior guidance. The FASB deferred the effective date for the new revenue reporting standard for entities reporting under GAAP for one year from the original effective date. In 2016, the FASB issued several amendments to the standard, including principal versus agent considerations when another party is involved in providing goods or services to a customer, the application of identifying performance obligations, and the recognition of expected breakage amounts.

The Company continues to assess all potential impacts of the standard. In applying the guidance under Topic 606, specifically related to the indicators of transfer of control, the Company continues to assess the guidance and has not yet concluded how such guidance will be applied to its revenue streams. The Company plans to elect to adopt the practical expedient related to shipping and handling activities. The Company has concluded that the new standard will have an impact related to the accounting for gift card breakage. Under Topic 606 the Company expects to recognize breakage, which is currently recorded as a reduction to selling, general and administrative expenses, as revenue and breakage will be recognized proportional to actual gift card redemptions.

Topic 606 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period, with early adoption permitted for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company will adopt Topic 606 in

8


the first quarter of fiscal 2018. The Company has elected to adopt using a modified retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially applying the new standard recognized in retained earnings at the date of adoption.

Accounting for Leases

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-02Leases, which, for operating leases, requires a lessee to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability, initially measured at the present value of the lease payments, in its balance sheet. The standard also requires a lessee to recognize a single lease cost, calculated so that the cost of the lease is allocated over the lease term, on a generally straight-line basis. The ASU is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effects that the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on its consolidated financial statements and anticipates the new guidance will significantly impact its consolidated financial statements given the Company has a significant number of leases.

Financial Instruments

In January 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-01Financial InstrumentsOverall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, which amends various aspects of the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure for financial instruments. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted only for certain provisions. The Company is evaluating the impact of adopting this new accounting standard on its consolidated financial statements.

Cash Flow Classification

In August 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2016-15Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. The new guidance addresses eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing an existing diversity in practices regarding the matter in which certain cash receipts and payments are presented and classified in the consolidated statements of cash flows. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of adopting this new accounting standard on its consolidated financial statements.

Income Taxes: Intra-Entity Asset Transfers

In October 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2016-16Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory. The new guidance requires the recognition of the income tax consequences of an intercompany asset transfer, other than transfers of inventory, when the transfer occurs. For intercompany transfers of inventory, the income tax effects will continue to be deferred until the inventory has been sold to a third party. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of adopting this new accounting standard on its consolidated financial statements.

Goodwill and Intangibles

In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2017-04IntangiblesGoodwill and Other (Topic 350). The updated guidance simplifies the measurement of goodwill impairment by removing step two of the goodwill impairment test, which requires the determination of the fair value of individual assets and liabilities of a reporting unit. The new guidance requires goodwill impairment to be measured as the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The amendments should be applied1, 2025 on a prospective basis. The newWhile ASU 2023-05 is not currently applicable to us because our existing arrangements in variable interest entities do not meet the definition of joint ventures as described in the proposed standard, we will apply this guidance in future reporting periods after the guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 with early adoption permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed after January 1, 2017. The Company is evaluatingto any future arrangements meeting the impactdefinition of adopting this new accounting standard on its consolidated financial statements.a joint venture.

NOTE 3—BUSINESS COMBINATION

On May 27, 2016, the Company acquired a controlling interest in Design Investors WW Acquisition Company, LLC, which owns the business operating under the name “Waterworks”. The purchase price of the acquisition was approximately $119.9 million consisting of $118.4 million funded with available cash and $1.5 million representing the fair value of rollover units, which amount is subject to adjustment for changes in working capital and other items. The rollover units, which are classified as a liability, are included in non-current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets (refer to Note 15—Stock-Based Compensation). After the transaction, and giving effect to equity interests acquired by management in the business, the Company owns in excess of 90% of the total equity interest in Waterworks, and owns 100% of the voting equity interest.

9


During the nine months ended October 29, 2016, the Company incurred $2.8 million, of acquisition-related costs associated with the transaction. The Company did not incur any acquisition-related costs during the three months ended October 29, 2016. These costs and expenses include fees associated with financial, legal and accounting advisors, and employment related costs, and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The Company recorded a purchase price allocation adjustment of $1.9 million during the first half of 2017. The adjustment primarily related to a subset of inventory acquired for which the Company completed a fair value analysis based on the facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. Subsequent to the acquisition date, only a small portion of such inventory had been sold and therefore the impact on the Company’s results of operations for historical periods since the acquisition was insignificant. The following table summarizes the purchase price allocation based on the estimated fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities, prior to and after the purchase price allocation adjustments (in thousands):

Any future changes to the purchase price will be recorded directly to the consolidated statements of operations and will not impact the goodwill recorded as a result of this acquisition.

Under purchase accounting rules, the Company valued the acquired finished goods inventory to fair value, which is defined as the estimated selling price less the sum of (a) costs of disposal and (b) a reasonable profit allowance for the Company’s selling effort. This valuation resulted in an increase in inventory carrying value of approximately $9.7 million for marketable inventory.

Trademarks have been assigned an indefinite life and therefore are not subject to amortization. The goodwill is representative of the benefits and expected synergies from the integration of Waterworks products and Waterworks’ management and employees, which do not qualify for separate recognition as an intangible asset. A portion of the trademarks and goodwill are not deductible for tax purposes.

Results of operations of Waterworks have been included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations since the May 27, 2016 acquisition date. Pro forma results of the acquired business have not been presented as the results were not considered material to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements for all periods presented and would not have been material had the acquisition occurred at the beginning of fiscal 2016.

NOTE 4—ASSET HELD FOR SALE

Building and Land

During the first quarter of fiscal 2017, the Company committed to a plan to sell the building and land at one of its owned retail Galleries, resulting in a reclassification of building and land of $8.2 million from property and equipment to asset held for sale on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of April 29, 2017. In May 2017, the Company completed the sale of the building and land for approximately $10.2 million and entered into a short-term five month lease agreement to lease the property. As a result, the gain associated with the sale of this property was amortized over a five month period. During the three and nine months ended October 28, 2017, the Company recorded a gain of $0.8 million and $2.1 million, respectively, which is included as a reduction of selling, general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. No additional gain associated with this transaction will be recognized in future periods.

Aircraft

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016, the Company committed to a plan to sell an aircraft, which resulted in a reclassification of such aircraft from property and equipment to asset held for sale on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of January 28, 2017. The asset held for sale had a carrying value of $4.9 million as of January 28, 2017. In April 2017, the sale of the aircraft was completed for a purchase price of $5.2 million and the Company incurred costs of $0.3 million to dispose of the asset.

NOTE 5—VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

Consolidated Variable Interest Entities (“VIE”) and Noncontrolling Interests

In fiscal 2022, we formed eight privately-held limited liability companies (each, a “Member LLC” and collectively, the “Member LLCs” or the “consolidated variable interest entities”) for real estate development activities related to our Gallery transformation and global expansion strategies. We hold a 50 percent membership interest in seven of the Member LLCs, and the remaining noncontrolling interest of 50 percent in each Member LLC is held by a third-party real estate development partner affiliated with the managing member of the Aspen LLCs (as defined in “Equity Method Investments” below). In one Member LLC we hold approximately 75 percent membership interest with the remaining noncontrolling interest of approximately 25 percent held in the same way by a real estate development partner affiliated with the managing member of the Aspen LLCs.

The following sets forthMember LLCs are qualitatively determined to be VIEs due to their having insufficient equity investment at risk to finance their activities without additional subordinated financial support. Upon the goodwillformation of each Member LLC we determined that the power to direct the most significant activities of each Member LLC is either controlled by us or shared between the members of the Member LLCs. In the instances where there is shared power among related parties as defined in the consolidation accounting guidance, we evaluated the related-party tiebreaker guidance and intangibledetermined that we are most closely associated with each Member LLC. Accordingly, we are the primary beneficiary of the Member LLCs and we consolidate the results of operations, financial condition and cash flows of the Member LLCs in our consolidated financial statements.

We measure the noncontrolling interests in the consolidated variable interest entities using the distribution provisions set out in the operating agreements of each Member LLC. As of July 29, 2023 and January 28, 2023, the noncontrolling interest holders had no claim to the net assets of each Member LLC based upon such distribution provisions. Accordingly, we did not recognize any noncontrolling interests as of July 29, 2023 and January 28, 2017 (in thousands):2023.

The Promissory Note bears interest at a fixed rate per annum equal to 5.37% until September 15, 2027, on which date the interest rate will reset based on the five-year treasury rate plus 2.00%, subject to a total interest rate floor of 3.00%.

Equity Method Investments

Equity method investments represent our membership interests in three privately-held limited liability companies in Aspen, Colorado (each, an “Aspen LLC” and collectively, the “Aspen LLCs” or the “equity method investments”) that were formed for the purpose of acquiring, developing, operating and selling certain real estate projects in Aspen, Colorado. We hold a 50 percent membership interest in two of the Aspen LLCs and a 70 percent membership interest in the third Aspen LLC. The Aspen LLCs are VIEs, however, we are not the primary beneficiary of these VIEs because we do not have the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance. Accordingly, we account for these investments using the equity method of accounting.

We have previously made contractually required contributions to the Aspen LLCs in an aggregate amount of $105 million in prior periods. In February 2023, we elected to make equity contributions to two of the Aspen LLCs totaling $31 million whereby such funding was used to repay a portion of third-party debt secured by certain real estate assets held by the Aspen LLCs. In April 2023, we made an additional equity contribution to one Aspen LLC of $1.8 million whereby such funding was used in connection with the acquisition of additional real estate assets. Inclusive of the equity contributions made during the six months ended July 29, 2023, we have made in excess of $135 million in capital contributions to the Aspen LLCs. Our maximum exposure to loss with respect to these equity method investments is the carrying value of the equity method investments as of July 29, 2023.

During the six months ended July 29, 2023 and July 30, 2022, we did not receive any distributions or have any undistributed earnings of equity method investments.

The 2020 Notes are governed by the terms of an indenture between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as the Trustee. The 2020 Notes will mature on July 15, 2020, unless earlier purchased by the Company or converted. The 2020 Notes will not bear interest, except that the 2020 Notes will be subject to “special interest”In September 2019, we issued in certain limited circumstances in the event of the failure of the Company to perform certain of its obligations under the indenture governing the 2020 Notes. The 2020 Notes are unsecured obligations and do not contain any financial covenants or restrictions on the payments of dividends, the incurrence of indebtedness or the issuance or repurchase of securities by the Company or any of its subsidiaries. Certain events are also considered “events of default” under the 2020 Notes, which may result in the acceleration of the maturity of the 2020 Notes, as described in the indenture governing the 2020 Notes. The 2020 Notes are guaranteed by the Company’s primary operating subsidiary, Restoration Hardware, Inc., as Guarantor. The guarantee is the unsecured obligation of the Guarantor and is subordinated to the Guarantor’s obligations from time to time with respect to its credit agreement and ranks equal in right of payment with respect to Guarantor’s other obligations.

Bond Hedge and Warrant Terminations

During the three months ended April 30, 2022, we entered into agreements with certain financial institutions (collectively, the “Counterparties”) to repurchase all of the warrants issued in connection with the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes at an initial conversionaggregate purchase price of approximately $118.13 per share. The conversion rate will be$184 million and $203 million, respectively, subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified events, but will not be adjusted for any accrued and unpaid special interest. In addition, upon the occurrence of a “make-whole fundamental change” as defined in the indenture, the Company will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate by a number of additional shares for a holder that electssettlement feature based on pricing formulations linked to convert its 2020 Notesthe trading price of our common stock over a volume weighted-average price measurement period of two or three days. Upon entering into these agreements, the warrants were reclassified from stockholders’ equity to current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, and accordingly, we recognized a corresponding net loss on the fair value adjustment of the warrants of $4.2 million, which is classified within other (income) expense—net on the condensed consolidated statements of income. Upon settlement of these agreements in April 2022, we paid an aggregate of $391 million in cash to terminate the warrants.

During the three months ended April 30, 2022, we entered into agreements with the Counterparties to terminate all of the convertible note bond hedges issued in connection with the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes to receive an aggregate closing price of $56 million and $180 million, respectively, subject to adjustment for a settlement feature based on pricing formulations linked to the trading price of our common stock over a three day volume weighted-average price measurement period. Upon entering into these agreements, the bond hedges were reclassified from stockholders’ equity to current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, and accordingly, we recognized a corresponding loss on the fair value adjustment of the settlement feature of $4.3 million, which is classified within other (income) expense—net on the condensed consolidated statements of income. Upon settlement of these agreements in April 2022, we received an aggregate of $232 million in cash for the termination of the bond hedges.

Notes Repurchase

During the first quarter of fiscal 2022, we entered into individual privately negotiated transactions with a limited number of sophisticated investors that were holders of the 2023 Notes and/or the 2024 Notes to repurchase in cash $45 million and $135 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes, respectively (the “Notes Repurchase”). The Notes Repurchase provided for an estimated settlement cost of $325 million, subject to adjustment to the final settlement cost for an embedded feature based on pricing formulations linked to the trading price of our common stock over a five day volatility weighted-average price measurement period that ended on April 29, 2022. Upon execution of these agreements, we determined that we had modified the debt substantially and applied an extinguishment accounting model. Accordingly, we derecognized the aggregate principal amount of $180 million of the Convertible Senior Notes related to the extinguishment of such make-whole fundamental change.notes, and subsequently recognized a new financing liability with a fair value of $325 million. An embedded derivative related to the conversion feature was bifurcated from the new financing liability and separately recognized with an initial fair value of $278 million, with the remaining $47 million classified as debt and recognized at its amortized cost basis. Accordingly, we recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $146 million upon the execution of these agreements, inclusive of acceleration of amortization of debt issuance costs of $1.0 million. Upon the remeasurement of the amount owed to the holders in terms of the embedded feature, a total of $314 million was paid in cash to the holders, representing the combined carrying value of the debt liability of $47 million, as well as the fair value of the bifurcated embedded equity derivative upon settlement of $267 million. Accordingly, we recognized a gain on the fair value adjustment of the bifurcated embedded equity derivative of $11 million, which is classified within other (income) expense—net on the condensed consolidated statements of income.

As of October 28, 2017, none of these conditions have occurredThe first condition was satisfied from the calendar quarter ended September 30, 2020 through the calendar quarter ended March 31, 2022. However, this condition was not met for the calendar quarter ended June 30, 2022 through the calendar quarter ended June 30, 2023, and as a result, the 20202024 Notes arewere not convertible as of October 28, 2017.June 30, 2023. On and after MarchJune 15, 2020,2024, until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders may convert all or a portion of their 20202024 Notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances.

of the Company’sour common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of the Company’sour common stock. If the Company has not delivered a notice of its election of settlement method prior to the final conversion period, it will be deemed to have elected combination settlement with a dollar amount per note to be received upon conversion of $1,000.

The Company may not redeemDuring the 2020 Notes; however, uponsix months ended July 30, 2022, holders of $3.6 million in aggregate principal amount of the occurrence2024 Notes elected to exercise the early conversion option and we elected to settle such conversions using combination settlement comprised of a fundamental change (as defined in the indenture governing the notes), holders may require the Company to purchase all or a portion of their 2020 Notes for cash at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 20202024 Notes to be purchased plus any accruedconverted and unpaid special interest to, but excluding,shares of our common stock for the fundamental change purchase date.

During the six months ended July 30, 2022, we paid $3.6 million in cash onand delivered 9,760 shares of common stock to settle the early conversion are required to be separately accounted for as liability and equity componentsof these 2024 Notes. We also received 9,760 shares of common stock from the exercise of a portion of the instrument in a manner that reflects the issuer’s non-convertible debt borrowing rate. Accordingly, in accounting forconvertible bond hedge we purchased concurrently with the issuance of the 2020 Notes, the Company separated the 2020 Notes into2024 Notes.

The remaining liability and equity components. The carrying amount of the liability component was calculated by measuring the fair value of a similar liability that does not have an associated convertible feature. The carrying amount of the equity component, which is recognized as a debt discount, represents the difference between the proceeds from the issuance of the 2020 Notes and the fair value of the liability component of the 2020 Notes. The excess of the principal amount of the liability component over its carrying amount (“debt discount”) will be amortized to interest expense using an effective interest rate of 6.47% over the expected life of the 2020 Notes. The equity component is not remeasured as long as it continues to meet the conditions for equity classification.

In accounting for the debt issuance costs related to the issuance of the 20202024 Notes the Company allocated the total amount incurred to the liability and equity components basedis classified as anon-current obligation on their relative values. Debt issuance costs attributable to the liability component are amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the expected life of the 2020 Notes, and debt issuance costs attributable to the equity component are netted with the equity component in stockholders’ equity.

Debt issuance costs related to the 2020 Notes were comprised of discounts upon original issuance of $3.8 million and third party offering costs of $2.3 million. Discounts and third party offering costs attributable to the liability component are recorded as a contra-liability and are presented net against the convertible senior notes due 2020 balance on theour condensed consolidated balance sheets. Duringsheets since the three months ended October 28, 2017 and October 29, 2016, the Company recorded $0.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively, related to the amortization of debt issuance costs. During the nine months ended October 28, 2017 and October 29, 2016, the Company recorded $0.8 million and $0.7 million, respectively, related to the amortization of debt issuance costs.

2020 Notes—Convertible Bond Hedge and Warrant Transactions

In connection with the offering of the 2020 Notes in June 2015 and the exercise in full of the overallotment option in July 2015, the Company entered into convertible note hedge transactions whereby the Company has the option to purchase a total of approximately 2.5 million shares of its common stock at a price of approximately $118.13 per share. The total cost of the convertible note hedge transactions was $68.3 million. In addition, the Company sold warrants whereby the holders of the warrants have the option to purchase a total of approximately 2.5 million shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $189.00 per share. The warrants contain certain adjustment mechanisms whereby the total number of shares to be purchased under such warrants may be increased up to a cap of 5.1 million shares of common stock (which cap may also be subject to adjustment). The Company received $30.4 million in cash proceeds from the sale of these warrants. Taken together, the purchase of the convertible note hedges and sale of

the warrants are intended to offset any actual earnings dilution from the conversion of the 2020 Notes until the Company’s common stock is above approximately $189.00 per share. As these transactions meet certain accounting criteria, the convertible note hedges and warrants are recorded in stockholders’ equity, are not accounted for as derivatives and are not remeasured each reporting period. The net costs incurred in connection with the convertible note hedge and warrant transactions were recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Company recorded a deferred tax liability of $32.8 million in connection with the debt discount associated with the 2020 Notes and recorded a deferred tax asset of $26.6 million in connection with the convertible note hedge transactions. The deferred tax liability and deferred tax asset are recorded in deferred tax assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

0.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2019

In June 2014, the Company issued $350 million principal amount of 0.00% convertible senior notes due 2019 (the “2019 Notes”) in a private offering. The 2019 Notes are governed by the terms of an indenture between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as the Trustee. The 2019 Notes will mature on June 15, 2019, unless earlier purchased by the Company or converted. The 2019 Notes will not bear interest, except that the 2019 Notes will be subject to “special interest” in certain limited circumstances in the event of the failure of the Company to perform certain of its obligations under the indenture governing the 2019 Notes. The 2019 Notes are unsecured obligations and do not contain any financial covenants or restrictions on the payments of dividends, the incurrence of indebtedness or the issuance or repurchase of securities by the Company or any of its subsidiaries. Certain events are also considered “events of default” under the 2019 Notes, which may result in the acceleration of the maturity of the 2019 Notes, as described in the indenture governing the 2019 Notes.

The initial conversion rate applicable to the 2019 Notes is 8.6143 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2019 Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $116.09 per share. The conversion rate will be subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified events, but will not be adjusted for any accrued and unpaid special interest. In addition, upon the occurrence of a “make-whole fundamental change,” the Company will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate by a number of additional shares for a holder that elects to convert its 2019 Notes in connection with such make-whole fundamental change.2023

Prior to March 15, 2019,2023, the 20192023 Notes will beare convertible only under the following circumstances: (1) during any calendar quarter commencing after September 30, 2014,2018, if, for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during the 30 consecutive trading day period ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding fiscalcalendar quarter, the last reported sale price of the Company’sour common stock on such trading day is greater than or equal to 130% of the applicable conversion price on such trading day; (2) during the five consecutive business day period after any ten consecutive trading day period in which, for each day of that period, the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of 20192023 Notes for such trading day was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the Company’sour common stock and the applicable conversion rate on such trading day; or (3) upon the occurrence of specified corporate transactions. As of October 28, 2017, none of these conditions have occurredThe first condition was satisfied from the calendar quarter ended September 30, 2020 through the calendar quarter ended June 30, 2022 and, as a result,accordingly, holders were eligible to convert their 2023 Notes beginning in the 2019calendar quarter ended December 31, 2020 and were eligible to convert their 2023 Notes are not convertible as of October 28, 2017.through March 15, 2023. On and after March 15, 2019,2023, until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders maywere able to convert all or a portion of their 20192023 Notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances. Upon conversion,

If the Company has not delivered a notice of its election of settlement method prior to the final conversion period it will be deemed to have elected combination settlement with a dollar amount of $1,000.

The Company may not redeem the 2019 Notes; however, upon the occurrence of a fundamental change (as defined in the indenture governing the notes), holders may require the Company to purchase all or a portion of their 2019 Notes for cash at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 20192023 Notes to be purchased plus any accruedconverted and unpaid special interest to, but excluding,shares of our common stock for the fundamental change purchase date.

During the six months ended July 30, 2022, we paid $9.4 million in cash onand delivered 27,214 shares of common stock to settle the early conversion are required to be separately accounted for as liability and equity componentsof these 2023 Notes. We also received 27,208 shares of common stock from the exercise of a portion of the instrument in a manner that reflects the issuer’s non-convertible debt borrowing rate. Accordingly, in accounting forconvertible bond hedge we purchased concurrently with the issuance of the 20192023 Notes, and therefore, on a net basis issued six shares of our common stock in respect to such settlement of the converted 2023 Notes.

In June 2023, upon the maturity of the 2023 Notes, the Company separated the 2019 Notes into liability and equity components. The carrying amount of the liability component was calculated by measuring the fair value of a similar liability that does not have an associated convertible feature. The carrying amount of the equity component, which is recognized as a debt discount, represents the difference between the proceeds from the issuance of the 2019 Notes and the fair value of the liability component of the 2019 Notes. The excess of theremaining $1.7 million in aggregate principal amount of the liability component over its carrying amount (“debt discount”) will be amortized to interest expense using an effective interest rate2023 Notes settled for $1.7 million in cash. During the six months ended July 29, 2023, we issued in aggregate 1,931 shares of 4.51% over the expected lifecommon stock upon settlement of the 20192023 Notes. The equity component is not remeasured as long as it continues to meet the conditions for equity classification.

In accounting for the debt issuance costs related to the issuance of the 2019 Notes, the Company allocated the total amount incurred to the liability and equity components based on their relative values. Debt issuance costs attributable to the liability component are amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the expected life of the 2019 Notes, and debt issuance costs attributable to the equity component are netted with the equity component in stockholders’ equity.

Debt issuance costs related to the 2019 Notes were comprised of discounts and commissions payable to the initial purchasers of $4.4 million and third party offering costs of $1.0 million. Discounts, commissions payable to the initial purchasers and third party offering costs attributable to the liability component are recorded as a contra-liability and are presented net against the convertible senior notes due 2019 balance on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

2019 Notes—Convertible Bond Hedge and Warrant Transactions

In connection with the offering of the 2019 Notes, the Company entered into convertible note hedge transactions whereby the Company has the option to purchase a total of approximately 3.0 million shares of its common stock at a price of approximately $116.09 per share. The total cost of the convertible note hedge transactions was $73.3 million. In addition, the Company sold warrants whereby the holders of the warrants have the option to purchase a total of approximately 3.0 million shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $171.98 per share. The warrants contain certain adjustment mechanisms whereby the total number of shares to be purchased under such warrants may be increased up to a cap of 6.0 million shares of common stock (which cap may also be subject to adjustment). The Company received $40.4 million in cash proceeds from the sale of these warrants. Taken together, the purchase of the convertible note hedges and sale of the warrants are intended to offset any actual dilution from the conversion of the 2019 Notes and to effectively increase the overall conversion price from $116.09 per share to $171.98 per share. As these transactions meet certain accounting criteria, the convertible note hedges and warrants are recorded in stockholders’ equity, are not accounted for as derivatives and are not remeasured each reporting period. The net costs incurred in connection with the convertible note hedge and warrant transactions were recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Company recorded a deferred tax liability of $27.5 million in connection with the debt discount associated with the 2019 Notes and recorded a deferred tax asset of $28.6 million in connection with the convertible note hedge transactions.

The second lien credit agreement contained various restrictive and affirmative covenants generally in line with the covenants and restrictions contained in the credit agreement including required financial reporting, limitations on the ability to incur liens, make loans or other investments, incur additional debt, make certain restricted payments, or enter into transactions with affiliates, along with other restrictions and limitations typical to credit agreements of this type and size.

The second lien credit agreement also contained a financial ratio covenant not found in the credit agreement based upon a senior secured leverage ratio of consolidated secured debt to consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”).

The second lien credit agreement also containedthan a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio generally(“FCCR”) covenant based on the same formulation set forthratio of (i) consolidated EBITDA to the amount of (ii) debt service costs plus certain other amounts, including dividends and distributions and prepayments of debt as defined in the creditABL Credit Agreement (the “FCCR Covenant”). The FCCR Covenant only applies in certain limited circumstances, including when the unused availability under the ABL Credit Agreement drops below the greater of (A) $40 million and (B) an amount based on 10% of the total borrowing availability at the time. The FCCR Covenant ratio is set at 1.0 and measured on a trailing twelve-month basis. As of July 29, 2023, RHI was in compliance with the FCCR Covenant.

The ABL Credit Agreement requires a daily sweep of all cash receipts and collections to prepay the loans under the agreement such thatwhile (i) an event of default exists or (ii) when the borrower may not make certain “restricted payments” inunused availability under the event that certain ratios were not metABL Credit Agreement drops below the greater of (A) $40 million and contained certain(B) an amount based on 10% of the total borrowing availability at the time.

The ABL Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, events of default and other customary terms and conditions for an asset based credit facility.

The availability of the revolving line of credit at any given time under the ABL Credit Agreement is limited by the terms and conditions of the ABL Credit Agreement, including the amount of collateral available, a second lienborrowing base formula based upon numerous factors, including the value of eligible inventory and eligible accounts receivable, and other restrictions contained in the ABL Credit Agreement. As a result, actual borrowing availability under the revolving line of credit agreement.could be less than the stated amount of the revolving line of credit (as reduced by the actual borrowings and outstanding letters of credit under the revolving line of credit). As of July 29, 2023, the amount available for borrowing under the revolving line of credit under the ABL Credit Agreement was $454 million, net of $27 million in outstanding letters of credit.

IntercreditorTerm Loan Credit Agreement

On July 7, 2017, in connection with the second lien credit agreement, Restoration Hardware, Inc.October 20, 2021, RHI entered into an intercreditor agreementa Term Loan Credit Agreement (the “intercreditor agreement”“Term Loan Credit Agreement”) withby and among RHI as the borrower, the lenders party thereto and Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent and collateral agent (in such capacities, the “Term Agent”) with respect to an initial term loan (the “Term Loan B”) in an aggregate principal amount equal to $2,000 million with a maturity date of October 20, 2028.

Through the second quarter of fiscal 2023, the Term Loan B bore interest at an annual rate based on LIBOR subject to a 0.50% LIBOR floor plus an interest rate margin of 2.50% (with a stepdown of the interest rate margin if RHI achieves a specified public corporate family rating). LIBOR was a floating interest rate that reset periodically during the life of the Term Loan B. At the date of borrowing, the interest rate was set at the LIBOR floor of 0.50% plus 2.50% and the Term Loan B was issued at a discount of 0.50% to face value. As of June 30, 2023, LIBOR is no longer a referenced rate and Term Loan Credit Agreement has transitioned from LIBOR to SOFR. Beginning in August 2023, the Term Loan B bears interest at an annual rate based on SOFR subject to a 0.50% SOFR floor plus an interest rate margin of 2.50% plus a credit spread adjustment.

On May 13, 2022, RHI entered into a 2022 Incremental Amendment (the “2022 Incremental Amendment”) with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, amending the Term Loan Credit Agreement (the Term Loan Credit Agreement as amended by the 2022 Incremental Amendment, the “Amended Term Loan Credit Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the 2022 Incremental Amendment, RHI incurred incremental term loans (the “Term Loan B-2”) in an aggregate principal amount equal to $500 million with a maturity date of October 20, 2028. The Term Loan B-2 constitutes a separate class from the Term Loan B under the Term Loan Credit Agreement.

The Term Loan B-2 bears interest at an annual rate based on the SOFR subject to a 0.50% SOFR floor plus an interest rate margin of 3.25% plus a credit agreementspread adjustment of 0.10%. Other than the terms relating to the Term Loan B-2, the terms of the Amended Term Loan Credit Agreement remain substantially the same as the terms of the existing Term Loan Credit Agreement, including representations and warranties, covenants and events of default.

All obligations under the Term Loan B are guaranteed by certain domestic subsidiaries of RHI. Further, RHI and such subsidiaries have granted a security interest in substantially all of their assets (subject to customary and other exceptions) to secure the Term Loan B. Substantially all of the collateral securing the Term Loan B also secures the loans and other credit extensions under the ABL Credit Agreement. On October 20, 2021, in connection with the Term Loan Credit Agreement, RHI and certain other subsidiaries of RH party to the Term Loan Credit Agreement and the administrative agentABL Credit Agreement, as the case may be, entered into an Intercreditor Agreement (the “Intercreditor Agreement”) with the Term Agent and collateral agent under the second lien credit agreement.ABL Agent.

NOTE 11—FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Financial Assets and Liabilities

Certain financial assets and liabilities are required to be carried at fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In determining the fair value, the Company utilizes market data or assumptions that it believes market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, which would maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs of the valuation technique.

The degree of judgment used in measuring the fair value of financial instruments generally correlates to the level of pricing observability. Pricing observability is impacted by a number of factors, including the type of financial instrument, whether the financial instrument is new to the market and not yet established and the characteristics specific to the transaction. Financial instruments with readily available active quoted prices for which fair value can be measured generally will have a higher degree of pricing observability and a lesser degree of judgment used in measuring fair value. Conversely, financial instruments rarely traded or not quoted will generally have less, or no, pricing observability and a higher degree of judgment used in measuring fair value.

The Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured and reported at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following categories:

Level 1—Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical investments as of the reporting date.

Level 2—Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date, and fair value is determined through the use of models or other valuation methodologies.

Level 3—Pricing inputs are unobservable for the investment and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the investment. The inputs used in the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation.

A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The Company invests excess cash primarily in investment-grade interest-bearing securities such as money market funds, certificates of deposit, commercial paper, government agency obligations and guaranteed obligations of the U.S. government, all of which are subject to minimal credit and market risks. The Company estimates the fair value of its commercial paper and U.S. government agency bonds by taking into consideration valuations obtained from third party pricing services. The pricing services utilize industry standard valuation models, including both income and market based approaches, for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly, to estimate fair value. These inputs include reported trade dates of and broker/dealer quotes on the same or similar securities; issuer credit spreads; benchmark securities, prepayment/default projections based on historical data; and other observable inputs.

There were no purchases, sales, issuances, or settlements related to recurring level 3 measurements during the three and nine months ended October 28, 2017 or October 29, 2016.

The option contains dual-condition restrictions consisting of both time-based service restrictions over four years and performance-based restrictions linked to achieving the Company’s common stock price objectives of $100, $125 and $150 per share. The option is fully vested on the date of grant but the shares underlying the option remain subject to transfer restrictions to the extent the performance-based and time-based requirements have not been met. The option resulted in a one-time non-cash stock compensation charge of $23.9 million in the nine months ended October 28, 2017. The Company did not record any expense related to this grant in the three months ended October 28, 2017.

Time-Based Restrictions

The time-based restrictions are measured over an initial four year service period from the date of the award and these restrictions will lapse at the end of each of these first four years at a rate of 250,000 shares per year if (i) Mr. Friedman remains employed at the end of such year, and (ii) the stock price goals have been achieved in such year as described further below.

Performance-Based Restrictions

The stock price objectives are measured each year and are set at prices for the Company’s common stock of $100, $125 and $150 per share. If all three stock price objectives are met in the first performance year, restrictions will lapse as to 250,000 shares in aggregate at the end of such year, with 83,333 shares tied to a $100 price per share 83,333 shares tied to a $125 price per share and 83,334 shares tied to a $150 price per share.

The same price performance tests are applied in the second year of performance such that restrictions will lapse for an additional 250,000 shares at the end of the second year and then again as to an additional 250,000 shares at the end of each of the third and fourth years so long as Mr. Friedman remains employed at the end of each year.

To the extent that any of the price performance objectives is not reached within one of these first four performance years, the stock price objective can be achieved in any subsequent year until the 8th anniversary of the date of grant.

During the third quarter

PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

2023 SECOND QUARTER FORM 10-Q | 35

Table of fiscal 2017, the Company committed to a plan to close its Mira Loma, CA and Dallas, TX furniture distribution centers by the end of fiscal 2017, prior to the end of the respective lease terms. The Mira Loma, CA distribution center closed in November 2017 and the Dallas, TX distribution center is expected to close by the end of fiscal 2017. During the three months ended October 28, 2017, the Company incurred costs in its RH Segment of $1.9 million associated with the distribution center closures, including $1.4 million of severance which is included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and $0.5 million of inventory transfers costs which is included in cost of goods sold on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of October 28, 2017, the remaining accrual associated with these closures was $1.7 million which is included in accounts payable and accrued expenses on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company expects to record additional expenses related to the distribution center closures during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017, primarily related to liabilities for lease losses and losses on disposal of capitalized property and equipment. The Company estimates that the remaining charge will be approximately $0.5 million to $1.0 million for the Mira Loma, CA distribution center closure. The Company is not currently able to estimate the remaining charge expected to be incurred upon the Dallas, TX distribution center closure due to the uncertainty in the timing and the market rental rates the Company will be able to obtain for a sublease agreement for the space.Contents

Forward-looking statements are subject to risk and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those that we expected. We derive many of our forward-looking statements from our operating budgets and forecasts, which are based upon many detailed assumptions.

2023 SECOND QUARTER FORM 10-Q | 37

We have recently undertaken substantial efforts to introduce the most prolific collection of new products in our history, with over 70 new furniture and upholstery collections across RH Interiors, Contemporary, Modern, Outdoor, Baby & Child and TEEN. These new collections reflect a level of design and quality inaccessible in our current market, and a value proposition that will be disruptive across multiple markets. Over the next several quarters we will be increasing our investment in Sourcebooks in connection with the introduction of these new products.

Business Conditions

There are a number of macroeconomic factors and uncertainties affecting the overall business climate as well as our business, including increased inflation, substantially higher interest and mortgage rates, and unpredictability in the United States and in the U.K. In addition, as of October 28, 2017, we operated 31 outlet stores throughout the United States and Canada.

In fiscal 2016, we experienced a slowdown in sales and substantially lower level of profits than in prior periods. We have undertaken initiatives to specifically address the temporal factors affecting our results in fiscal 2016, in additionglobal financial markets related to the foregoing as well as, among other numerous initiatives we are undertaking to improvethings, the recent failures of several financial institutions. We experienced increased demand for our businessproducts during the pandemic and financial performancethere have been significant shifts in fiscal 2017consumer consumption patterns with the easing of the pandemic, including increases in travel and beyond. If these initiatives are successful, we may return to rates of growth in revenuesservices rather than spending on home furnishings. These and improvements in margins and profitability that are more in line with our historical growth patterns prior to the downturn that we experienced in fiscal 2016. However, there can be no assurance that these efforts will be successful or that we will not encounter other operational difficulties during fiscal 2017 and future time periods thatmacroeconomic factors may have a negative impactnumber of adverse effects on growthmacroeconomic conditions and profitability. For further information on the temporal factors affecting our results and our initiatives, see Item 2—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Overview—Key Value Driving Strategies in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Item 7—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Factors Affecting our Results of Operations in our 2016 Form 10-K.

Over the past 18 months, we transformed our business from a promotional to a membership model that is enhancing our brand, streamlining our operations, and improving the customer experience. We believe that the transition to a membership model has had a

27


favorable impact on our business and financial performance including through a reduction in our return rate, exchange rate and cancel rate resulting in higher conversion of demand into revenues. As of October 28, 2017, we had approximately 380,000 members which drove approximately 95% of sales of our core RH business during the three months ended October 28, 2017.

Simultaneously we began the redesign of our supply chain network, rationalizing our product offerings, and transitioning inventory into fewer facilities, creating a more capital efficient model. As a result, we were able to forego building a fifth furniture distribution center planned to open in 2017 and we expect to consolidate our current furniture distribution center network from four to two locations by the fourth quarter of 2017. We anticipate that managing our business in fewer facilities will reduce inventory risk, increase turns, improve merchandise margins and eliminate the occupancy and overhead of approximately 1.75 million square feet of distribution space.

We continue to pursue and test numerous initiatives to improve many aspects of our business including through efforts to optimize inventory, elevate the home delivery experience and simplify our distribution network, as well as to expand our product offering and transform our real estate. There can be no assurance as to the timing and extent of the operational benefits and financial contributions of these strategic efforts. In addition, our pursuit of multiple initiatives with respect to our business in any given period may result in period-to-period changes in, and increased fluctuation in, our results of operations. For example, our efforts to optimize our distribution network could cause us to incur costs and expenses in the short term with respect to changes in the waymarkets in which we operate, including the housing market, with the potential for an economic recession and a sustained downturn in the housing market. Factors such as a slowdown in the housing market or negative trends in stock market prices could have an adverse impact on demand for our products. We believe that these macroeconomic and other factors have contributed to the slowdown in demand that we have experienced in our business such as charges relatedover the last several fiscal quarters.

Our decisions regarding the sources and uses of capital will continue to closure of distribution centers. The above factorsreflect and other currentadapt to changes in market conditions and future operational initiatives of the Company may create additional uncertaintyour business, including further developments with respect to macroeconomic factors.

We also face uncertainties related to the large number of new business initiatives that we are undertaking at the same time, including efforts to grow our consolidated net revenuesbusiness through (i) international expansion, (ii) developing innovative new Gallery designs and profit in the near term.

Acquisitionlocations for our business, (iii) pursuing new areas of Waterworks

On May 27, 2016, we acquired a controlling interest in Design Investors WW Acquisition Company, LLC, which owns the business operating under the name “Waterworks,” for consideration consisting of approximately $119.9 million, consisting of $118.4 million funded with available cashoperations including real estate development and $1.5 million representing the fair value of rollover units, which amount is subject to adjustment for changes in working capital and other items. After the transaction, and giving effect to equity interests acquired by management in the business, we own in excess of 90% of the total equity interests in Waterworks.

Waterworks has long been the definition of the well-appointed bath, and is the only complete bath and kitchen business offering fittings, fixtures, furniture, furnishings, accessories, lighting, hardware and surfaces under one brand in the market. Waterworks is composed of the Waterworks, Waterworks Kitchen and Waterworks Studio brands, all built on a foundation of impeccable style, design integrity, quality and craftsmanship. Waterworks prides itself on its deep relationships in the design community and the technical expertise and tenure of its people.

Key Value DrivingValue-Driving Strategies

In order to achieve our long-term strategies of Product Elevation, Platform Expansion and Cash Generation as well as drive growth across our business, we are focused on the following long-term key strategies:strategies and business initiatives:

PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Transform Our Real Estate Platform.Table of Contents

Product Elevation. We believe we have built the most comprehensive and compelling collection of luxury home furnishings under one brand in the world. Our products are presented across multiple collections, categories and channels that we control, and their desirability and exclusivity has enabled us to achieve industry-leading revenues and margins. Our customers know our brand concepts as RH Interiors, RH Modern, RH Contemporary, RH Outdoor, RH Beach House, RH Ski House, RH Baby & Child, RH TEEN and Waterworks. Our strategy is to continue to elevate the design and quality of our product. Over the next year we will be introducing a large number of new products as we have continued our efforts to enhance our merchandise assortment. In addition, over the next few years, we plan to introduce RH Couture, RH Bespoke and RH Color.

Gallery Transformation. Our product is elevated and rendered more valuable by our architecturally inspiring Galleries. We believe our strategy to open new Design Galleries in every major market in North America will unlock the value of our vast assortment, generating an expected annual revenue opportunity for our business of $5 to $6 billion. We believe we can significantly increase our sales by transforming our real estate platform from our existing legacy retail footprint to a portfolio of next generation Design Galleries that are sized to the potential of each market and the size of our assortment. New next generation Design Gallery sites are identified based on a varietyIn addition, we plan to incorporate hospitality into most of factors, including timing of legacy Gallery lease expiration, availability of suitable new site locations, the negotiation of favorable economic terms to the Company for the new location, as well as satisfactory and timely completion of real estate development including procurement of permits and completion of construction. The number of next generation Design Galleries that we open in any fiscal year is highly dependent upon these variablesthe future, which further elevates and individual new Design Galleries may be subject to delay or postponement depending on the circumstances of specific projects. We opened RH Toronto in October 2017renders our product and RH West Palm in November 2017, both with integrated food and beverage offerings, and expect to open at least three Design Galleries in fiscal 2018.

growing our merchandise assortment;

introducingunique new productsretail experience that cannot be replicated online, and categories, including our introduction of RH Modern, RH TEEN andthat the addition of hospitality drives incremental sales of home furnishings in these Galleries.

Brand Elevation. We are evolving the Waterworks business;

exploringRH brand beyond curating and testingselling product to conceptualizing and selling spaces by building an ecosystem of Products, Places, Services and Spaces designed to elevate and render our product more valuable while establishing the RH brand as a thought leader, taste and place maker. We believe our seamlessly integrated ecosystem of immersive experiences inspires customers to dream, design, dine, travel and live in a world thoughtfully curated by RH, creating an impression and connection unlike any other brand in the world. Our hospitality efforts will continue to elevate the RH brand as we extend beyond the four walls of our Galleries into RH Guesthouses, where our goal is to create a new business opportunities complementarymarket for travelers seeking privacy and luxury in the $200 billion North American hotel industry. We entered this industry with the opening of the RH Guesthouse in New York in September 2022, and are in the process of constructing our second RH Guesthouse in Aspen. Additionally, we are creating bespoke experiences like RH Yountville, an integration of Food, Wine, Art & Design in the Napa Valley; RH1 & RH2, our private jets; and RH3, our luxury yacht that is available for charter in the Caribbean and Mediterranean, where the wealthy and affluent visit and vacation. These immersive experiences expose new and existing customers to our core business;evolving authority in architecture, interior design and landscape architecture.

Digital Reimagination. Our strategy is to digitally reimagine the RH brand and business model both internally and externally. Internally, our multi-year effort began with the reimagination of our Center of Innovation & Product Leadership to incorporate digitally integrated visuals and decision data designed to amplify the creative process from product ideation to product presentation. Externally, our strategy comes to life digitally through The World of RH, an online portal where customers can explore and be inspired by the depth and dimension of our brand. Launched in the spring of 2022, The World of RH includes rich, immersive content with simplified navigation and search functionality, all designed to enhance the shopping experience and render our product and brand awareness and customer loyalty through our Source Book circulation strategy, our digital marketing initiatives and our advertising and public relations activities and events.

Elevate the Customer Experience. We are focused on improving the end-to-end customer experience. As we have elevated our brand, especially at retail, we are also working to enhance the brand experience in other aspects of our business. We are making changes in many aspects of our business processes that affect our customers, including improvements in product quality and enhancements in sourcing, product availability, in-home delivery and all aspects of customer care and service. We have invested significant time in fiscal 2017 architecting a new fully integrated back-end operating platform, inclusive of the supply chain network, the home delivery experience as well as a new metric driven quality system and company-wide decision data. We also believe that the introduction of experiential brand-enhancing products and services, such as expanded design ateliers, the RH Interior Design program and the planned launch of an integrated food and beverage experience in a number of our new Galleries, will further enhance our customers’ in-store experience, in addition to allowing us to further disrupt the highly fragmented home furnishings landscape and achieve market share gains.

We have the opportunityexpect to continue to improve our operating margins by leveraging our fixed occupancy, advertisingelevate the customer experience on The World of RH with further enhancements to content, navigation and corporate general and administrative costs, as well as leveraging our scalable infrastructure. Key areas in which we believe we will increase operating margins include:

Advertising cost leverage;

Improved product margin and shipping efficiencies; and

Other selling, general and administrative expenses.

Optimize the Allocation of Capital in the Business.search functionality. We believe that our operations and current initiatives present a significantan opportunity exists to optimize the allocation of capital in our business, including generating free cash flow and optimizing cash on our balance sheetcreate similar strategic separation online as well as deploying capital to repurchase shares of our common stock which we believe creates a long term benefit to our shareholders. We have also incurred additional debt to fund a portion of our share repurchase programs and we believe that was a good capital allocation given favorable interest rates on debt and the ability of our business to generate cash in light of current business initiatives in order to paydown and service such debt. During fiscal 2017, one of our initiatives has been to generate additional cash flow through the optimization of inventory and other efforts to make our business more efficient in its use of capital to support operations. Our current efforts to generate more cash flow in our business include rationalizing our SKU count and reducing overall levels of inventory, which involves selling slower moving, discontinued and other inventory through markdowns and through our outlet channel. We have also undertaken initiatives to optimize our distribution network and make significant improvements in the way that we handle merchandise in the distribution and delivery part of our business. We expect that these improvements will result in operational efficiencies in the handling and transportation of merchandise and will enable us to achieve greater efficiency and lower requirements for carrying inventory to meet customer demand. We plan to lower our new Gallery opening cadence to three to five Galleries per year, which we believe will result in improved deal economics, lower build out costs and higher returns and will lower our capital requirements and execution risk over the course of our real estate transformation. We also believe the slower opening cadence will put less pressure on our infrastructure, enabling greater capital discipline throughout the organization. In addition, we have with our Galleries offline, reconceptualizing what a number of assets thatwebsite can be sold to third parties in order to generate cash. We expect to transition from a lease to a development model and may enter into sale leaseback transactions with respect to certain real estate that we own, for example, and may enter into capital or operating leases in lieu of purchasing or holding certain assets that are used in our business. We intend to continue to seek out and evaluate opportunities for effectively managing and deploying capital in ways that support and enhance our business initiatives and strategies.should be.

Pursue International Expansion. We plan to strategically expand our business into select countries outside of the United States, Canada and the U.K. in the future.

Global Expansion. We believe that our luxury brand positioning and unique aesthetic will have strong international appeal.

In fiscal 2016,appeal, and that pursuit of global expansion will provide RH with a substantial opportunity to build over time a projected $20 to $25 billion global brand in terms of annual revenues. Our view is that the competitive environment globally is more fragmented and primed for disruption than the North American market, and there is no direct competitor of scale that possesses the product, operational platform, and brand of RH. As such, we made several strategic investments and changes to our business modelare actively pursuing the expansion of the RH brand globally with the objective of launching international locations in order to strengthen our brand and positionEurope, which began with the business for growth in the future. Our fiscal 2016 results also reflected the effect of temporal issues that we faced, including the costs related to the launchopening of RH Modern; the timing of recognizing Membership revenues related to the transition from

a promotional to a membership model; efforts to reduce inventories and rationalize our SKU count; and the decision to move our 2016 Source Book mailing from the spring to the fall.

In fiscal 2017, we have continued our efforts to optimize inventory and rationalize our SKU count. In the nine months ended October 28 2017, net revenues increased 14%, of which 3 points of growth was related to higher outlet and warehouse sales stemming from our accelerated inventory optimization efforts. While our higher outlet revenues and inventory optimization efforts had a positive impact on revenues and working capital in the first nine months of the year, they had a negative impact on margins and earnings.

Additionally, in fiscal 2017, we expect incremental revenues from the four new Design Galleries opened in 2016, our new Design Gallery in Toronto which opened in October 2017, and the Design Gallery in West Palm Beach which opened in November 2017. The majority of our new Design Galleries under development include a dedicated floor for RH Modern as well as an RH Hospitality offering including restaurants, wine vaults, and pantries, similar to our successful hospitality offering at RH Chicago,England, The Gallery at the Three Arts Club.Historic Aynho Park, in June 2023. We have secured a number of locations in various markets in the U.K. and continental Europe for future Design Galleries and are currently in lease or purchase negotiations for additional locations.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, we use non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted capital expenditures. We compute these measures by adjusting the applicable GAAP measures to remove the impact of certain recurring and non-recurring charges and gains and to adjust for the impact of income tax items related to such adjustments to our GAAP financial statements. The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. We use these non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision-making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. We believe that they provide useful information about operating results, enhance the overall understanding of past financial performance and future prospects, and allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by senior leadership in its financial and operational decision-making. The non-GAAP financial measures used by us in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may be different from the non-GAAP financial measures, including similarly titled measures, used by other companies.

For more information on the non-GAAP financial measures, please see the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures tables outlined below. These accompanying tables include details on the GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to non-GAAP financial measures and the related reconciliations between these financial measures.

Comparable brand revenue growth includes direct net revenues and retail comparable store sales, including RH Baby & Child and RH Modern Galleries. Comparable brand revenue growth excludes retail non-comparable store sales, closed store sales and outlet net revenues. Comparable store sales have been calculated based upon retail stores, excluding outlet stores, that were open at least fourteen full months as of the end of the reporting period and did not change square footage by more than 20% between periods. If a store is closed for seven days during a month, that month will be excluded from comparable store sales. Membership revenue was included in comparable brand revenue growth beginning April 2017, which is the first full month following the one-year anniversary of the program launch. Waterworks revenue was included in comparable brand revenue growth beginning June 2017, which is the first full month following the one-year anniversary of the acquisition.

Adjusted net income is a supplemental measure of financial performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. We define adjusted net income as net income (loss), adjusted for the impact of certain non-recurring and other items that we do not consider representative of our underlying operating performance. Adjusted net income is included in this filing because management believes that adjusted net income provides meaningful supplemental information for investors regarding the performance of our business and facilitates a meaningful evaluation of actual results on a comparable basis with historical results. Our management uses this non-GAAP financial measure in order to have comparable financial results to analyze changes Contingencies in our underlying business from quarter to quarter.

Comparable brand revenue was 7% for the nine months ended October 28, 2017.July 30, 2022.

A number ofJuly 30, 2022. The below discussion highlights several significant factors contributed to the increase inthat impacted RH Segment net revenues during the nine months ended October 28, 2017, the most significant of which was our decision to move the mailing of our 2016 Interiors Source Book to the fall of 2016. The 2016 Interiors Source Book mailing was complete in mid-December and therefore was a contributor to net revenues in the first three quarters of fiscal 2017, whereas the first three quarters of fiscal 2016 did not benefit from a similarly timed mailing.

In addition, the following factors resulted in increased RH Segment net revenues, which are listed in order of magnitude.Outlet sales, which include sales via warehouse locations, increased $49.2 million in the nine months ended October 28, 2017 compared to the nine months ended October 29, 2016, representing 3.3% of growth in RH Segment net revenues. Increased outlet sales occurred primarily as a result of our inventory optimization efforts as we increased our outlet promotional activity, including through warehouse sales, and we increased outlet selling square footage by approximately 32% compared to the prior period. Additionally, the performance of our new Design Galleries and an increase in retail weighted-average leased selling square footage contributed to the increase in RH Segment net revenues. Net revenues also increased related to deeper markdowns on discontinued merchandise based on our continued efforts to rationalize our SKU count. We also had an increase in Membership revenue recognized of $18.2 million.

RH Segment net revenues for the ninesix months ended October 28, 2017 were negatively impacted by $3.8 million relatedJuly 29, 2023 decreased primarily due to lower demand compared to the reductionfirst half of revenue associated with product recalls. Duringfiscal 2022, during which demand still benefited from the nineelevated pandemic-driven home spending. Outlet sales decreased $23 million to $116 million in the six months ended OctoberJuly 29, 2016, RH Segment net revenues were reduced by an estimated $162023 compared to $139 million due to customer accommodation and related expenses as a result of our initiative to elevatein the customer experience, including in response to production delays related to RH Modern. We did not experience similar production delays during the ninesix months ended October 28, 2017.July 30, 2022.

Waterworks net revenues

On May 27, 2016, we acquired a controlling interest in Waterworks. As a result of this acquisition, we acquired 15 Waterworks showrooms and included such additional retail stores in our weighted-average leased selling square footage for both the nine months

Waterworks net revenues increased $40.3decreased $4.2 million, or 82.2%4.2%, to $89.4$96 million in the ninesix months ended October 28, 2017July 29, 2023 compared to $49.1$100 million in the ninesix months ended October 29, 2016. Waterworks net revenues represented 5.1% and 3.2% of our net revenues for the nine months ended October 28, 2017 and October 29, 2016, respectively. The increase in Waterworks net revenues is primarily due to the nine months ended October 28, 2017 representing thirty-nine weeks of results, whereas the nine months ended October 29, 2016 only includes twenty-two weeks of results as Waterworks was acquired on May 27, 2016.July 30, 2022.

Gross profit

Consolidated gross profit increased $107.3decreased $294 million, or 22.2%28.8%, to $590.4$728 million in the ninesix months ended October 28, 2017 from $483.1July 29, 2023 compared to $1,022 million in the ninesix months ended October 29, 2016.July 30, 2022.

RH Segment gross profit for the nine months ended October 28, 2017 was negatively impacted by $8.2 million related to the reduction of revenue, incremental costs and inventory charges associated with product recalls and $0.5 million related to costs associated with anticipated distribution center closures. RH Segment gross profit for the nine months ended October 29, 2016 was negatively impacted by $7.7 million related to the estimated cumulative impact of coupons redeemed in connection with a legal claim alleging that the Company violated California’s Song-Beverly Credit Card Act of 1971 by requesting and recording ZIP codes from customers paying with credit cards. The coupons expired in March 2016.

Waterworks gross profit for the nine months ended October 28, 2017 and October 29, 2016 was negatively impacted by $2.1 million and $5.2 million, respectively, of amortization related to the inventory fair value adjustment recorded in connection with the acquisition.

Excluding the product recall costs, costs associated with the distribution center closure, impact of the coupons redeemed in connection with the legal claim and amortization related to the inventory fair value adjustment mentioned above, consolidated gross margin would have increased 1.9% to 33.9% of net revenues in the nine months ended October 28, 2017 from 32.0% of net revenues in the nine months ended October 29, 2016.July 30, 2022.

Excluding the product recall costs, costs associated with anticipated distribution center closures and impact of the coupons redeemedJuly 30, 2022. The decrease in connection with the legal claim mentioned above, RH Segment gross margin would have increased 1.8%was primarily attributable to 33.5% ofa decrease in product margins in the Core business, primarily driven by higher discounts on discontinued product collections, as well as lower net revenues resulting in the nine months ended October 28, 2017 from 31.7% of net revenuesdeleverage in the nine months ended October 29, 2016.

The increase in gross margin was primarily due to incremental shipping charges incurred during the nine months ended October 29, 2016 related to RH Modern production delays and our investment to elevate the customer experience. In addition, our merchandise margins were impacted by our SKU rationalization efforts that had a reduced impact on our margins this year compared to last year, partially offset by higher outlet and warehouse sales driven by increased promotions and higher discounts. During the nine months ended October 28, 2017, we experienced occupancy leverage in our fixed distribution and retail occupancy costs, partially offset by increased outlet occupancy costs.

Other income (expense)—net was income of $0.8 million in the six months ended July 29, 2023, which represents a foreign exchange gain from the remeasurement of intercompany loans with U.K. and Switzerland subsidiaries, offset by a loss due to unfavorable exchange rate changes affecting foreign currency denominated transactions, primarily between the U.S. dollar as compared to Pound Sterling and Euro.

Other income (expense)—net was an expense of $2.9 million during the six months ended July 30, 2022, which included a $4.6 million loss due to unfavorable exchange rate changes affecting foreign currency denominated transactions, primarily between the U.S. dollar as compared to Pound Sterling and Euro, in addition to a foreign exchange loss from the remeasurement of an intercompany loan with a U.K. subsidiary. The foreign currency loss was partially offset by a net gain on derivative instruments of $1.7 million during the six months ended July 30, 2022, resulting from the completion of certain transactions related to the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes, including bond hedge and warrant terminations and convertible senior notes repurchases.

General

The primary cash needs of our business have historically been for merchandise inventories, payroll, Source Books, store rent for our retail and outlet locations, capital expenditures associated with opening new stores andlocations, updating existing stores,locations, as well as the development of our infrastructure and information technology.technology, and Sourcebooks. 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. We completedDuring the three months ended July 29, 2023, we invested $1,208 million of cash, inclusive of excise taxes paid, in the purchase of shares of our first share repurchase program in an amount of $300 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2017 and completedcommon stock pursuant to our second repurchase program in an amount of $700 million during the second quarter of fiscal 2017Share Repurchase Program (refer to “Share Repurchase Programs” below)Item 2¾Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds within Part II of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for information related to timing). We intend tocontinuously evaluate our capital allocation from time to timestrategy and may engage in future investments in connection with existing or new share repurchasesrepurchase programs (refer to “Share Repurchase Program and Share Retirement” below), which may include investments in circumstances where buying sharesderivatives or other equity linked instruments. We have in the past been, and continue to be, opportunistic in responding to favorable market conditions regarding both sources and uses of capital. Capital raised from debt financings has enabled us to pursue various investments, including our common stock represents a good valueinvestments in joint ventures. We expect to continue to take an opportunistic approach regarding both sources and provides a favorable return foruses of capital in connection with our shareholders.business.

We have $650 million in aggregate principal amount of convertible notes outstanding, of which $350 million mature in June 2019believe our capital structure provides us with substantial optionality regarding capital allocation. Our near-term decisions regarding the sources and $300 million mature in June 2020, and we may need to pursue additional sources of liquidity to repay such convertible notes in cash at their respective maturity dates. There can be no assurance as to the availabilityuses of capital will continue to fund such repayments, or that if capital is available through additional debt issuances or refinancing of the convertible notes, that such capital will be available on terms that are favorablereflect and adapt to us.

We extendedchanges in market conditions and amended our revolving line of credit in June 2017, which has a total availability of $600.0 million, of which $10.0 million is available to Restoration Hardware Canada, Inc., and includes a $200.0 million accordion feature under which the revolving line of credit may be expanded by agreement of the parties from $600.0 million to up to $800.0 million if and to the extent the lenders revise their credit commitments to encompass a larger facility. In addition, we have an $80.0 million last out, delayed draw term loan (“LILO term loan”) facility. The revolving line of credit and LILO term loan facility have a maturity date of June 28, 2022.

In July 2017, Restoration Hardware, Inc. entered into a credit agreement (the “second lien credit agreement”)business, including further developments with respect to an initial term loanmacroeconomic factors affecting business conditions, such as the pandemic, inflation and increases in an aggregate principal amount equal to $100.0 million with a maturity date of January 7, 2023 (the “second lien term loan”). Refer to Second Lien Credit Agreement below. The proceeds of the second lien term loan were used to support our share repurchase program. We repaid this debt in full in October 2017.

We believe thatour existing cash expected to be generated from operations, netbalances and operating cash proceeds from the issuance of the convertible senior notes, borrowing availability under the revolving line of credit, borrowings under our term loan and otherflows, in conjunction with available financing arrangements, will be sufficient to repay our debt obligations as they become due, meet working capital requirements anticipated capital expenditures and fulfill other capital needs for more than the next 12 months.

Our business has relied on cash flows fromWhile we do not require additional debt to fund our operations, net cash proceeds from the issuanceour goal continues to be in a position to take advantage of the convertible senior notes, as well as borrowings undermany opportunities that we identify in connection with our credit facilities as our primary sources of liquidity.business and operations. We have pursued in the past, and may pursue in the future, additional strategies to generate liquidity for our operations,capital to pursue opportunities and investments, including through the strategic sale of existing assets, utilization of our credit facilities, and entry into various credit agreements and other new debt financing arrangements that present attractive terms.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2017, we received cash of $4.9 million for the sale of an aircraft, net of $0.3 million of costs We expect to dispose of the aircraft, which was classified as asset held for sale, and during the second quarter of fiscal 2017 we received cash of $10.2 million for the sale of a real estate parcel that we owned on which one of our retail Galleries was located, which was classified as asset held for sale. We may in the future pursuecontinue to use additional strategies, through the use of existing assets and debt facilities, or through the pursuit of new external sources of liquidity and debt financings,financing in future periods as a source of additional capital to fund our strategies to enhance stockholder value. There can be no assurance that additional capital, whether raised through the sale of assets, utilization of our existing debt financing sources, or pursuit of additional debt financing sources, will be available to us on a timely manner, on favorable terms or at all. various investments.

To the extent we pursuechoose to secure additional debt as a sourcesources of liquidity our capitalization profile may change and may include significant leverage, and as a result we maythrough incremental debt financing, there can be required to use future liquidity to repay such indebtedness and may be subject to additional terms and restrictions which affect our operations and future uses of capital.

In addition, our capital needs may change in the future due to changes in our business or new opportunities that we choose to pursue. We have invested significant capital expenditures in remodeling and opening new Galleries, and these capital expenditures have increased in the past and may continue to increase in future periods as we open additional next generation Design Galleries, which may require us to undertake upgrades to historical buildings or construction of new buildings. During fiscal 2016, we spent $157.6 million for capital expenditures. Additionally, we made payments of $23.4 million in fiscal 2016 to escrow accounts for future construction of next generation Design Galleries.

We anticipate our gross capital expenditures to be approximately $120 million to $130 million for fiscal 2017. Our fiscal 2017 capital expenditures will be offset by cash flows from operating activities. Our efforts to optimize inventory and reduce capital spending generated substantial free cash flow in the nine months ended October 28, 2017, and we expect to generate additional free cash flow for the remainder of the year.

The majority of the current lease arrangements for our new Galleries require the landlord to fund a portion of the construction related costs directly to third parties, rather than through traditional construction allowances and accordingly, we do not expect to receive significant contributions directly from our landlords related to the building of our larger format and next generation Design Galleries in fiscal 2017. As we develop new Galleries, as well as potentially other strategic initiatives in the future like our integrated hospitality experience; we may explore other models for our real estate, which could include longer lease terms or further purchases of, or joint ventures or other forms of equity ownership in, real estate interests associated with new sites and buildings. These approaches might require greater capital investment on our part than a traditional store lease with a landlord. In the event that such capital and other expenditures require us to pursue additional funding sources, we can provide no assurances that we will be successful in securing additional funding on attractive terms or at all. 

There can be no assurance that we will have sufficient financial resources, or will be able to arrangeraise such financing on favorable terms, if at all, or that future financing requirements will not require us to the extent necessaryraise money through an equity financing or by other means that could be dilutive to fund allholders of our initiatives,capital stock.

In addition, agreements governing existing or new debt facilities may restrict our ability to operate our business in the manner we currently expect or to make required payments with respect to existing commitments, including the repayment of the principal amount of our convertible senior notes in cash, whether upon stated maturity, early conversion or otherwise of such convertible senior notes. To the extent we need to seek waivers from any provider of debt financing, or we fail to observe the covenants or other requirements of existing or new debt facilities, any such event could have an impact on our other commitments and obligations, including triggering cross defaults or other consequences with respect to other indebtedness. Our current level of indebtedness, and any additional indebtedness that we may incur, exposes us to certain risks with regards to interest rate increases and fluctuations. Our ability to make interest payments or to refinance any of our indebtedness to manage such interest rates may be limited or negatively affected by credit market conditions, macroeconomic trends and other risks.

41Credit Facilities and Debt Arrangements


We amended and restated our asset based credit facility in July 2021, which has an initial availability of up to $600 million, of which $10 million is available to Restoration Hardware Canada, Inc., and includes a $300 million accordion feature under which the revolving line of credit may be expanded by agreement of the parties from $600 million to up to $900 million if and to the extent the lenders revise their credit commitments to encompass a larger facility. The accordion feature may be added as a first-in, last-out term loan facility. The ABL Credit Agreement further provides the borrowers may request a European sub-credit facility under the revolving line of credit or under the accordion feature for borrowing by certain European subsidiaries of RH if certain conditions set out in the asset based credit facility are met. The maturity date of the asset based credit facility is July 29, 2026.

52 | 2023 SECOND QUARTER FORM 10-Q

PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

We entered into a $2,000 million term debt financing in October 2021 (the “Term Loan B”) by means of a Term Loan Credit Agreement through RHI as the borrower, Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent and collateral agent, and the various lenders party thereto (the “Term Loan Credit Agreement”). The Term Loan B has a maturity date of October 20, 2028. As of July 29, 2023, we had $1,965 million outstanding under the Term Loan Credit Agreement. We are required to make quarterly principal payments of $5.0 million with respect to the Term Loan B.

In May 2022, we entered into an incremental term debt financing (the Term Loan B-2”) in an aggregate principal amount equal to $500 million by means of an amendment to the Term Loan Credit Agreement with RHI as the borrower, Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent and the various lenders parties thereto (the “Amended Term Loan Credit Agreement”). The Term Loan B-2 has a maturity date of October 20, 2028. The Term Loan B-2 constitutes a separate class from the existing Term Loan B under the Term Loan Credit Agreement. As of July 29, 2023, we had $496 million outstanding under the Amended Term Loan Credit Agreement. We are required to make quarterly principal payments of $1.3 million with respect to the Term Loan B-2 from December 2022.

Convertible Senior Notes

In September 2019, we issued in a private offering $350 million principal amount of 0.00% convertible senior notes due 2024 (the “2024 Notes”).

As of July 29, 2023, we had $42 million remaining in aggregate principal amount of the 2024 Notes, which have a scheduled maturity in September 2024. We anticipate having sufficient cash available to repay the principal amount of the 2024 Notes in cash with respect to any convertible notes for which the holders elect early conversion, as well as upon maturity of the 2024 Notes in September 2024.

Capital

We have invested significant capital expenditures in developing and opening new Design Galleries, and these capital expenditures have increased in the past, and may continue to increase in future periods, as we open additional Design Galleries, which may require us to undertake upgrades to historical buildings or construction of new buildings. Our adjusted capital expenditures include capital expenditures from investing activities and cash outflows of capital related to construction activities to design and build landlord-owned leased assets, net of tenant allowances received during the construction period. During the six months ended July 29, 2023, adjusted capital expenditures were $96 million in aggregate, net of cash received related to landlord tenant allowances of $4.1 million. In addition, we also received landlord tenant allowances subsequent to lease commencement of $2.4 million, which are reflected as a reduction to principal payments under finance leases within financing activities on the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. We anticipate our adjusted capital expenditures to be $225 million to $275 million in fiscal 2023, primarily related to our growth and expansion, including construction of new Design Galleries and infrastructure investments. Nevertheless, we may elect to pursue additional capital expenditures beyond those that are anticipated during any given fiscal period inasmuch as our strategy is to be opportunistic with respect to our investments and we may choose to pursue certain capital transactions based on the availability and timing of unique opportunities. There are a number of macroeconomic factors and uncertainties affecting the overall business climate as well as our business, including increased inflation and higher interest rates and we may make adjustments to our allocation of capital in fiscal 2023 or beyond in response to these changing or other circumstances. We may also invest in other uses of our liquidity such as share repurchases, acquisitions and growth initiatives, including through joint ventures and real estate investments.

Table of ContentsAny weakening

Certain lease arrangements require the landlord to fund a portion of the construction related costs through payments directly to us. As we develop new Galleries, as well as other potential strategic initiatives in the future like our integrated hospitality experience, we are exploring other models for our real estate activities, which include different terms and conditions for real estate transactions. These transactions may involve longer lease terms or further purchases of, or joint ventures or other adverse developmentsforms of equity ownership in, real estate interests associated with new sites and buildings that we wish to develop for new Gallery locations or other aspects of our business. These approaches might require different levels of capital investment on our part than a traditional store lease with a landlord.

Convertible Senior Notes

0.00% Refer to Note 9—Convertible Senior Notes due 2020

In June 2015, we issued in a private offering $250 million principal amount of 0.00% convertible senior notes due 2020our condensed consolidated financial statements for further information on the 2023 Notes and in July 2015, we issued an additional $50 million principal amount pursuant to the exercise of the overallotment option granted to the initial purchasers as part of our June 2015 offering (collectively, the “2020 Notes”). The 2020 Notes are governed by the terms of an indenture between us and U.S. Bank National Association, as the Trustee. The 2020 Notes will mature on July 15, 2020, unless earlier purchased by us or converted. The 2020 Notes will not bear interest, except that the 2020 Notes will be subject to “special interest” in certain limited circumstances in the event of our failure to perform certain of our obligations under the indenture governing the 20202024 Notes. The 20202023 Notes are unsecured obligations and do not contain any financial covenants or restrictions on the payments of dividends, the incurrence of indebtedness or the issuance or repurchase of securities by us or any of our subsidiaries. Certain events are also considered “events of default” under the 2020 Notes, which may result in the acceleration of the maturity of the 2020 Notes, as described in the indenture governing the 2020 Notes. The 2020 Notes are guaranteed by our primary operating subsidiary, Restoration Hardware, Inc., as Guarantor. The guarantee is the unsecured obligation of the Guarantor and is subordinated to the Guarantor’s obligations from time to time with respect to its credit agreement and ranks equal in right of payment with respect to Guarantor’s other obligations.

43


The initial conversion rate applicable to the 2020 Notes is 8.4656 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2020 Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $118.13 per share. The conversion rate will be subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified events, but will not be adjusted for any accrued and unpaid special interest. In addition, upon the occurrence of a “make-whole fundamental change” as defined in the indenture, we will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate by a number of additional shares for a holder that elects to convert its 2020 Notes in connection with such make-whole fundamental change.

Prior to March 15, 2020, the 2020 Notes will be convertible only under the following circumstances: (1) during any calendar quarter commencing after September 30, 2015, if, for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during the 30 consecutive trading day period ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter, the last reported sale price of our common stock on such trading day is greater than or equal to 130% of the applicable conversion price on such trading day; (2) during the five consecutive business day period after any ten consecutive trading day period in which, for each day of that period, the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of 2020 Notes for such trading day was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of our common stock and the applicable conversion rate on such trading day; or (3) upon the occurrence of specified corporate transactions. As of October 28, 2017, none of these conditions have occurred and, as a result, the 2020 Notes are not convertible as of October 28, 2017. On and after March 15, 2020, until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders may convert all or a portion of their 2020 Notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances. Upon conversion, the 2020 Notes will be settled, at our election, in cash, shares of our common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock.

We may not redeem the 2020 Notes; however, upon the occurrence of a fundamental change (as defined in the indenture governing the notes), holders may require us to purchase all or a portion of their 2020 Notes for cash at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2020 Notes to be purchased plus any accrued and unpaid special interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change purchase date.

Under GAAP, certain convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash on conversion are required to be separately accounted for as liability and equity components of the instrument in a manner that reflects the issuer’s non-convertible debt borrowing rate. Accordingly, in accounting for the issuance of the 2020 Notes, we separated the 2020 Notes into liability and equity components. The carrying amount of the liability component was calculated by measuring the fair value of a similar liability that does not have an associated convertible feature. The carrying amount of the equity component, which is recognized as a debt discount, represents the difference between the proceeds from the issuance of the 2020 Notes and the fair value of the liability component of the 2020 Notes. The excess of the principal amount of the liability component over its carrying amount (“debt discount”) will be amortized to interest expense using an effective interest rate of 6.47% over the expected life of the 2020 Notes. The equity component is not remeasured as long as it continues to meet the conditions for equity classification.

In accounting for the debt issuance costs related to the issuance of the 2020 Notes, we allocated the total amount incurred to the liability and equity components based on their relative values. Debt issuance costs attributable to the liability component are amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the expected life of the 2020 Notes, and debt issuance costs attributable to the equity component are netted with the equity component in stockholders’ equity.

Debt issuance costs related to the 2020 Notes were comprised of discounts upon original issuance of $3.8 million and third party offering costs of $2.3 million. Discounts and third party offering costs attributable to the liability component are recorded as a contra-liability and are presented net against the convertible senior notes due 2020 balance on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

2020 Notes—Convertible Bond Hedge and Warrant Transactions

In connection with the offering of the 2020 Notesmatured in June 2015 and the exercise in full of the overallotment option in July 2015, we entered into convertible note hedge transactions whereby we have the option to purchase a total of approximately 2.5 million shares of our common stock at a price of approximately $118.13 per share. The total cost of the convertible note hedge transactions was $68.3 million. In addition, we sold warrants whereby the holders of the warrants have the option to purchase a total of approximately 2.5 million shares of our common stock at a price of $189.00 per share. The warrants contain certain adjustment mechanisms whereby the total number of shares to be purchased under such warrants may be increased up to a cap of 5.1 million shares of common stock (which cap may also be subject to adjustment). We received $30.4 million in cash proceeds from the sale of these warrants. Taken together, the purchase of the convertible note hedges and sale of the warrants are intended to offset any actual earnings dilution from the conversion of the 2020 Notes until our common stock is above approximately $189.00 per share. As these transactions meet certain accounting criteria, the convertible note hedges and warrants are recorded in stockholders’ equity, are not accounted for as derivatives and are not remeasured each reporting period. The net costs incurred in connection with the convertible note hedge and warrant transactions were recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

44


We recorded a deferred tax liability of $32.8 million in connection with the debt discount associated with the 2020 Notes and recorded a deferred tax asset of $26.6 million in connection with the convertible note hedge transactions. The deferred tax liability and deferred tax asset are recorded in deferred tax assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

0.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2019

In June 2014, we issued $350 million aggregate principal amount of 0.00% convertible senior notes due 2019 (the “2019 Notes”) in a private offering. The 2019 Notes are governed by the terms of an indenture between us and U.S. Bank National Association, as the Trustee. The 2019 Notes will mature on June 15, 2019, unless earlier purchased by us or converted. The 2019 Notes will not bear interest, except that the 2019 Notes will be subject to “special interest” in certain limited circumstances in the event of our failure to perform certain of our obligations under the indenture governing the 2019 Notes. The 2019 Notes are unsecured obligations and do not contain any financial covenants or restrictions on the payments of dividends, the incurrence of indebtedness or the issuance or repurchase of securities by us or any of our subsidiaries. Certain events are also considered “events of default” under the 2019 Notes, which may result in the acceleration of the maturity of the 2019 Notes, as described in the indenture governing the 2019 Notes.

The initial conversion rate applicable to the 2019 Notes is 8.6143 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2019 Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $116.09 per share. The conversion rate will be subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified events, but will not be adjusted for any accrued and unpaid special interest. In addition, upon the occurrence of a “make-whole fundamental change,” we will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate by a number of additional shares for a holder that elects to convert its 2019 Notes in connection with such make-whole fundamental change.

Prior to March 15, 2019, the 2019 Notes will be convertible only under the following circumstances: (1) during any calendar quarter commencing after September 30, 2014, if, for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during the 30 consecutive trading day period ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter, the last reported sale price of our common stock on such trading day is greater than or equal to 130% of the applicable conversion price on such trading day; (2) during the five consecutive business day period after any ten consecutive trading day period in which, for each day of that period, the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of 2019 Notes for such trading day was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of our common stock and the applicable conversion rate on such trading day; or (3) upon the occurrence of specified corporate transactions. As of October 28, 2017, none of these conditions have occurred and, as a result, the 2019 Notes are not convertible as of October 28, 2017. On and after March 15, 2019, until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders may convert all or a portion of their 2019 Notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances. Upon conversion, the 2019 Notes will be settled, at our election, in cash, shares of our common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock.

We may not redeem the 2019 Notes; however, upon the occurrence of a fundamental change (as defined in the indenture governing the notes), holders may require us to purchase all or a portion of their 2019 Notes for cash at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2019 Notes to be purchased plus any accrued and unpaid special interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change purchase date.

Under GAAP, certain convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash on conversion are required to be separately accounted for as liability and equity components of the instrument in a manner that reflects the issuer’s non-convertible debt borrowing rate.

The carrying amount of the equity component, which is recognized as a debt discount, represents the difference between the proceeds from the issuance of the 2019 Notes and the fair value of the liability component of the 2019 Notes. The debt discount will be amortized to interest expense using an effective interest rate of 4.51% over the expected life of the 2019 Notes. The equity component is not remeasured as long as it continues to meet the conditions for equity classification.

In accounting for the debt issuance costs related to the issuance of the 2019 Notes, we allocated the total amount incurred to the liability and equity components based on their relative values. Debt issuance costs attributable to the liability component are amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the expected life of the 2019 Notes, and debt issuance costs attributable to the equity component are netted with the equity component in stockholders’ equity.

Debt issuance costs related to the 2019 Notes were comprised of discounts and commissions payable to the initial purchasers of $4.4 million and third party offering costs of $1.0 million. Discounts, commissions payable to the initial purchasers and third party offering costs attributable to the liability component are recorded as a contra-liability and are presented net against the convertible senior notes due 2019 balance on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

2019 Notes—Convertible Bond Hedge and Warrant Transactions

In connection with the offering of the 2019 Notes, we entered into convertible note hedge transactions whereby we have the option to purchase a total of approximately 3.0 million shares of our common stock at a price of approximately $116.09 per share. The total cost of the convertible note hedge transactions was $73.3 million. In addition, we sold warrants whereby the holders of the warrants have the option to purchase a total of approximately 3.0 million shares of our common stock at a price of $171.98 per share. The warrants contain certain adjustment mechanisms whereby the total number of shares to be purchased under such warrants may be increased up to a cap of 6.0 million shares of common stock (which cap may also be subject to adjustment). We received $40.4 million in cash proceeds from the sale of these warrants. Taken together, the purchase of the convertible note hedges and sale of the warrants are intended to offset any actual dilution from the conversion of the 2019 Notes and to effectively increase the overall conversion price from $116.09 per share to $171.98 per share.

The net costs incurred in connection with the convertible note hedge and warrant transactions were recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

We recorded a deferred tax liability of $27.5 million in connection with the debt discount associated with the 2019 Notes and recorded a deferred tax asset of $28.6 million in connection with the convertible note hedge transactions.

In addition, the credit agreement establishes an up to $80.0 million LILO term loan facility.

The availability of credit at any given time under the credit agreement is limited by reference to a borrowing base formula based upon numerous factors,facility, including the value of eligible inventory and eligible accounts receivable. As a result of theamount available for borrowing base formula, actual borrowing availability under the revolving line of credit could be less than the stated amount of the revolving line of credit (as reduced by the actual borrowings and outstanding letters of credit under the revolving line of credit). All obligations under the credit agreement are secured by substantially all of the assets, including accounts receivable, inventory, intangible assets, property, equipment, goods and fixtures of Restoration Hardware, Inc., Restoration Hardware Canada, Inc., RH US, LLC, Waterworks Operating Co., LLC and Waterworks IP Co., LLC.

If the availability under the credit agreement is less than the foregoing amount, then Restoration Hardware, Inc. is required to maintain a consolidated fixed-charge coverage ratio (“FCCR”) of at least one to one. The consolidated FCCR is based upon the ratio on the last day of each month on a trailing twelve-month basis of (a) (i) consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the agreement) minus (ii) capital expenditures, minus (iii) the income taxes paid in cash to (b) the sum of (i) debt service charges plus (ii) certain dividends and distributions paid. As of October 28, 2017, Restoration Hardware, Inc. was in compliance with all applicable covenants of the credit agreement.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires managementsenior leadership to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes, as well as the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management evaluates itsWe evaluate our accounting policies, estimates, and judgments on an on-going basis. Management bases itsWe base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions and such differences could be material to theour condensed consolidated financial statements.

Management evaluatedWe evaluate the development and selection of itsour critical accounting policies and estimates and believesbelieve that the followingcertain of our significant accounting policies involve a higher degree of judgment or complexity and are most significant to reporting our consolidated results of operations and financial position, and are therefore discussed as critical:

Revenue Recognition

Merchandise InventoriesInventories—Reserves

Advertising Expenses

Impairment of Goodwill

Tradenames, Trademarks and Other Intangible Assets

Long-Lived Assets

Lease Accounting

Reasonably Certain Lease Term

Incremental Borrowing Rate

For further discussion regarding these policies, refer to Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationsCritical Accounting Policies and Estimates in the 2016 Form 10-K. There have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies and estimates listed above from the disclosures included in the 2016our 2022 Form 10-K. For further discussion regarding these policies, refer to Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationsCritical Accounting Policies and Estimates in our 2022 Form 10-K.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Refer to Note 2—Recently Issued Accounting Standards in our condensed consolidated financial statements for a description of recently proposedissued accounting standards whichthat may impact our consolidated financial statementsresults in future reporting periods.

ITEM 3.     QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE OF MARKET RISKS

There have been no significant changes in our exposures to market risk since January 28, 2023, other than factors discussed below. Refer to Part II, Item 3. 7A—Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure ofDisclosures about Market RisksRisk in our 2022 Form 10-K for a discussion on our exposures to market risk.

Interest Rate Risk

We currently do not engageAs described in any interest rate hedging activity and we have no intention to do so in the foreseeable future.

We are subject to interest rate risk in connection with borrowings under our revolving line of credit which2022 Form 10-K, our Term Loan Credit Agreement bears interest at variable rates and we may incur additional indebtedness that bears interest at variable rates. At October 28, 2017, $341.0 million was outstanding under the revolving line of credit. As of October 28, 2017, the undrawn borrowing availability under the revolving line of credit was $189.0 million, net of $27.7 million in outstanding letters of credit. As a result of the FCCR restriction that limits the last 10% of borrowing availability, actual incremental borrowing available under the revolving line of credit would be approximately $125.2 million. Based on the average interest rate on the revolving line of credit during the three months ended October 28, 2017, and to the extent that borrowings were outstanding on such line of credit, we do not believe that a 10% change in the interest rate would have a material effect on our consolidated results of operations or financial condition. To the extent that we incur additional indebtedness, we may increase our exposure to risk from interest rate fluctuations.

We are subjectexposed to interest rate risk in connection with borrowings underrelated to our LILO term loan, which bears interest at variable rates. At October 28, 2017, $80.0 million was outstanding under the LILO term loan. Based on the averagedebt. For every 100-basis point change in interest rates, on the LILO term loan during the three months ended October 28, 2017, we do not believe that a 10%our annual interest expense could change in the interest rate would have a material effect on our consolidated resultsby approximately $39 million.

Table of operations or financial condition.Contents

As of October 28, 2017, we had $350 million principal amount of 0.00% convertible senior notes due 2019 outstanding (the “2019 Notes”). As this instrument does not bear interest, we do not have interest rate risk exposure related to this debt.

As of October 28, 2017, we had $300 million principal amount of 0.00% convertible senior notes due 2020 outstanding (the “2020 Notes”). As this instrument does not bear interest, we do not have interest rate risk exposure related to this debt.

Market Price Sensitive Instruments

0.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2019

In connection with the issuance of the 2019 Notes, we entered into privately-negotiated convertible note hedge transactions with certain counterparties. The convertible note hedge transactions relate to, collectively, 3.0 million shares of our common stock, which represents the number of shares of our common stock underlying the 2019 Notes, subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to those applicable to the 2019 Notes. These convertible note hedge transactions are expected to reduce the potential earnings dilution with respect to our common stock upon conversion of the 2019 Notes and/or reduce our exposure to potential cash or stock payments that may be required upon conversion of the 2019 Notes.

We also entered into separate warrant transactions with the same group of counterparties initially relating to the number of shares of our common stock underlying the convertible note hedge transactions, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. The warrant transactions will have a dilutive effect with respect to our common stock to the extent that the price per share of our common stock exceeds the strike price of the warrants unless we elect, subject to certain conditions, to settle the warrants in cash. The strike price of the warrant transactions is initially $171.98 per share. Refer to Note 9—Convertible Senior Notes in our condensed consolidated financial statements.

0.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2020

In connection with the issuance of the 2020 Notes, we entered into privately-negotiated convertible note hedge transactions with certain counterparties. The convertible note hedge transactions relate to, collectively, 2.5 million shares of our common stock, which represents the number of shares of our common stock underlying the 2020 Notes, subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to those applicable to the 2020 Notes. These convertible note hedge transactions are expected to reduce the potential earnings

Impact of Inflation

Our results of operations and financial condition are presented based on historical cost. While it is difficult to accurately measure the impact of inflation due to the imprecise nature of the estimates required, we believe the effects of inflation, if any, on our consolidated results of operations and financial condition have been immaterial.

Our senior leadership team, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide the reasonable assurance described above as of July 29, 2023.

Remediation of Material Weakness in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

As previously disclosed in our 2022 Form 10-K, the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q/A for the fiscal periods ended April 30, 2022, July 30, 2022, and October 29, 2022, and the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal period ended April 29, 2023, we identified the following material weakness:

We did not design and maintain an effective control activity over the presentation and disclosure of net income per share, specifically the application of authoritative guidance, including new accounting standards, to the net income per share computations.

This material weakness resulted in errors in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the fiscal periods ended April 30, 2022, July 30, 2022, and October 29, 2022 that were restated on Form 10-Q/A.

As previously disclosed in our 2022 Form 10-K, we designed and implemented an enhanced control activity related to the presentation and disclosure of net income per share, including the application of authoritative guidance and new accounting standards, to the net income per share computations. The enhanced control activity has operated for a sufficient period of time in order for us to conclude, through testing, that the control is designed and is operating effectively. As such, we concluded that the previously reported material weakness has been remediated as of July 29, 2023.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter ended July 29, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

From time to time, we and/or members of our managementsenior leadership team are involved in litigation, claims, investigations and other proceedings relating to the conduct of our business, including purported class action litigation, as well as securities class action litigation. Such legal proceedings may include claims related to our employment practices, wage and hour claims, claims of intellectual property infringement, including with respect to trademarks and trade dress, claims asserting unfair competition and unfair business practices, claims with respect to our collection and sale of reproduction products, and consumer class action claims relating to our consumer practices including the collection of zip code or other information from customers.practices. In addition, from time to time, we are subject to product liability and personal injury claims for the products that we sell and the stores we operate. Subject to certain exceptions, our purchase orders generally require the vendor to indemnify us against any product liability claims; however, if the vendor does not have insurance or becomes insolvent, we may not be indemnified. In addition, we could face a wide variety of employee claims against us, including general discrimination, privacy, labor and employment, ERISA and disability claims. Any claims could result in litigation against us and could also result in regulatory proceedings being brought against us by various federal and state agencies that regulate our business, including the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. Often these cases raise complex factual and legal issues, which are subject to risks and uncertainties and which could require significant managementsenior leadership time. Litigation and other claims and regulatory proceedings against us could result in unexpected expenses and liability and could also materially adversely affect our operations and our reputation.
