CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements about us and our industry that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. All statements other than statements of historical factsfact contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including statements regarding our future results of operations or financial condition, business strategy and plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “contemplate,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “target,” “will,” or “would” or the negative of these words or other similar terms or expressions. Our actualActual results or outcomes could differ materially from those indicated in these forward-looking statements for a variety of reasons, including, among others:
• our ability to execute on our growth strategies; • our ability to maintain favorable relationships with suppliers and manufacturers; • competition from mass merchants and specialty retailers; • impacts on our business from the sensitivity of our business to weather conditions, changes in the economy, and the housing market; • our ability to implement technology initiatives that deliver the anticipated benefits, without disrupting our operations; • our ability to attract and retain senior management and other qualified personnel; • regulatory changes and development affecting our current and future products; • our ability to obtain additional capital to finance operations; • commodity price inflation and deflation; • impacts on our business from the COVID-19 pandemic; • impacts on our business from cyber incidents and other security threats or disruptions; and • other risks and uncertainties, including those listed in the section titled “Risk Factors” in our filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.

You should not rely on forward-looking statements as predictions of future events.

The outcome of the events described in these forward-looking statements is subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors described in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 3, 2020, Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended January 2, 2021, Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.10-Q, and in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all risks and uncertainties that could have an impact on the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The results, events, and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements may not be achievedachieved or occur, and actual results events, or circumstancesoutcomes could differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements.
In addition, statements that “we believe” and similar statements reflect our beliefs and opinions on the relevant subject. These statements are based on information available to us as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. And10-Q and while we believe that information provides a reasonable basis for these statements, that information may be limited or incomplete. Our statements should not be read to indicate that we have conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all relevant information. These statements are inherently uncertain, and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely on these statements.
The forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are based on events or circumstances as of the date on which the statements are made. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or to reflect new information or the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by law.

Use of Estimates
To prepare financial statements that conform to GAAP, we make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our financial statements and accompanying notes. Our most significant estimates relate to the allowance for doubtful accounts,sales returns, inventory obsolescence reserves, lease assumptions, vendor rebate programs, income taxes, self-insurance, valuation of intangible assets and goodwill, and intangible asset impairment evaluations. We continually review our estimates and make adjustments as necessary, but actual results could be significantly different from what we expected when we made these estimates.

Fair Value Measurements
We use fair value measurements to record fair value of certain assets and to estimate fair value of financial instruments 0t recorded at fair value but required to be disclosed at fair value.
As of July 3, 2021April 2, 2022 and October 3, 2020,2, 2021, we held 0 assets that wereare required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
We evaluate our financial assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurements on a recurring basis to determine the appropriate level of classification for each reporting period.
The fair value of the our amended and restated term loan credit agreement (“Term LoanLoan”) due in 2028 (see Note 7)9—Long-Term Debt, Net) was determined to be $804.4$790.9 million and $802.9 million as of July 3, 2021.April 2, 2022 and October 2, 2021, respectively. These fair value estimates, determined to be Level 2, are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect these estimates.
The fair value of the interest rate cap agreements (see Note 7) was determined to be Level 2 and is included in other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of October 3, 2020. Our interest rate cap agreements expired in March 2021; consequently, we had 0 interest rate cap agreements as of July 3, 2021. Changes in fair value of the interest rate cap are recorded in other expenses, net on our condensed consolidated statements of operations.
The carrying amounts of cash, and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments.
There were 0 transfers between levels in the fair value hierarchy during the three and ninesix months ended JulyApril 2, 2022 and April 3, 2021, and June 27, 2020, respectively.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Prior Period Reclassifications
ReclassificationsIn December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (“Topic 740”): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions related to intraperiod tax allocations, foreign subsidiaries and interim reporting that are present within existing GAAP rules. The ASU also provides updated guidance regarding the tax treatment of certain immaterial priorfranchise taxes, goodwill and nontaxable entities, among other items. In addition, ASU 2019-12 clarifies that the effect of a change in tax laws or rates should be reflected in the annual effective tax rate computation during the interim period amountsthat includes the enactment date. We adopted ASU 2019-12 as of October 3, 2021, (as of the beginning of the current annual period) and its adoption did not have been madea material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, Business Combinations (“Topic 805”): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers, which includes certain amendments to conform to currentimprove, simplify, and provide consistency for recognition and measurement of acquired contract assets and contract liabilities from revenue contracts in a business combination. The amendments require that an acquirer recognize and measure such contract assets and contract liabilities under Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as if it had originated the contracts. The amendments also allow for election of certain practical expedients, which are applied on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including for any interim period, presentation.and if elected, the amendments are applied retrospectively for any acquisitions that occurred in the fiscal year of interim adoption. We adopted ASU 2021-08 during the second quarter of fiscal 2022 and its adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Note 3—Business Combinations
The following acquisitions did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations. Our condensed consolidated financial statements include the results of operations of these acquisitions from the date of acquisition. The total purchase consideration was allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and the liabilities assumed at their estimated fair values as of each acquisition date, with the date of acquisition, as determined by management. The excess of the purchase price over the amounts allocatedrecorded to assets acquired and liabilities assumed has been recorded as goodwill. The goodwill resulting from these acquisitions areis expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. During the measurement periods, which will not exceed one year from each closing, we will continue to obtain information to assist us in finalizing the acquisition date fair values. Any qualifying changes to our preliminary estimates will be recorded as adjustments to the respective assets and liabilities, with any residual amounts allocated to goodwill.
Fiscal 2022 Acquisitions
During the six months ended April 2, 2022, we acquired 2 businesses for an aggregate purchase price of $30.0 million. These acquisitions expanded our pool and spa footprint and added 14 new retail locations. We are in the process of obtaining third-party valuations of certain intangible assets and inventories; thus, the provisional measurement of inventories, intangible assets and goodwill are subject to change. The following table sets forth the preliminary allocation of these acquisitions in the aggregate (in thousands):

Note 14—Equity-Based Compensation
Equity-Based Compensation
2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan
In October 2020, we adopted the Leslie’s, Inc. 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan provides for the grant of awards such as stock options to purchase Leslie’s common stock (each, a “Stock Option”) and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) which may settle in Leslie’s, Inc. common stock to our directors, executives and eligible employees of the Company. Stock Options granted under the Plan generally expire ten years from the date of grant and consist of Stock Options that vest upon the satisfaction of time-based requirements (“Service Stock Option”) and performance-based Stock Options that vest upon satisfaction of a performance-based requirement (“Performance Stock Options”). RSUs consist of grants that vest ratably upon the satisfaction of time-based requirements (“Service RSU”) and performance-based RSUs that vest upon satisfaction of performance-based requirements (“Performance RSU”). In each case, vesting of the Company’s outstanding and unvested Stock Options and RSUs is contingent upon the holder’s continued service through the date of each applicable vesting event. As of April 2, 2022, we had approximately 7.5 million shares of common stock available for future grants under the Plan.
As of April 2, 2022, the aggregate unamortized value of all outstanding equity-based compensation awards was approximately $34.8 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 2.8 years.

The key non-GAAP measures and other operating measures we use are comparable sales, comparable sales growth, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net income (loss), and Adjusted net incomeearnings per share.

Sales
We offer a broad range of products that consists of regularly purchased, non-discretionary pool and spa maintenance items such as chemicals, equipment, cleaning accessories and parts, as well as installation and repair services for pool and spa equipment. Our offering of proprietary, owned and third-party brands across diverse product categories drives sales growth by attracting new consumers and encouraging repeat visits from our existing consumers. Revenue from merchandise sales at retail locations is recognized at the point of sale, revenue from services areis recognized when the services are rendered, and revenue from e-commerce merchandise sales is generally recognized upon shipment of the merchandise. Revenue is recorded net of related discounts and sales tax. Payment from retail customers is generally at the point of sale and payment terms for commercialprofessional pool operator customers are based on the Company’sour credit requirements and generally have terms of less than 60 days. When we receive payment from a consumer before the consumer has taken possession of the merchandise or the service has been performed, the amount received is recorded as deferred revenue or as a customer deposit until the sale or service is complete. Sales are impacted by product mix and availability, as well as promotional and competitive activities and the spending habits of our consumers. Growth of our sales is primarily driven by comparable sales growth and expansion of our locations in existing and new markets.
Comparable Sales and Comparable Sales Growth
We measure comparable sales growth as the increase or decrease in sales recorded by the comparable base in any reporting period, compared to sales recorded by the comparable base in the prior reporting period. The comparable base includes sales through our locations and through our e-commerce websites and third-party marketplaces. Comparable sales is a key measure used by management and our board of directors to assess our financial performance.
We consider a new or acquired location comparable in the first full month after it has completed 52 weeks of sales. Closed locations become non-comparable during their last partial month of operation. Locations that are relocated are considered comparable at the time the relocation is complete. Comparable sales areis not calculated in the same manner by all companies, and accordingly, are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies and may not be an appropriate measure for performance relative to other companies.
The number of new locations reflects the number of locations opened during a particular reporting period. New locations require an initial capital investment in location build-outs, fixtures, and equipment, which we amortize over time as well as cash required for inventory.
We operated 946 and 934 retail locationsAs of April 2, 2022, we operated 965 retail locations in 38 and 37 states across the United States as of July 3, 2021 and June 27, 2020, respectively.States. We ownowned 27 locations and leaseleased the remainder of our locations. Our initial lease terms are typically five years with options to renew for multiple successivesuccessive five-year periods. We evaluate new opportunities in new and existing markets based on the number of pools and spas in the market, competition, our existing locations, availability and cost of real estate, and distribution and operating costs of our locations. We review performance of our locations on a regular basis and evaluate opportunities to strategically close locations to improve our profitability. Our limited investment costs in individual locations and our ability to transfer sales to our extensive network of remaining locations and e-commerce websites allows us to improve profitability as a result of any strategic closures.
Gross Profit and Gross Margin
Gross profit is equal to our sales less our cost of merchandise and services sold. Cost of merchandise and services sold reflects the direct cost of purchased merchandise, costs to package certain chemical products, including direct materials and labor, costs to provide services, including labor and materials, as well as distribution and occupancy costs. The direct cost of purchased merchandise includes vendor rebates, which are generally treated as a reduction of merchandise costs. We recognize such vendor rebates at the time the obligations to purchase products or perform services have been completed, and the related inventory has been sold. Distribution costs include warehousing and transportation expenses, including costs associated with third-party fulfillment centers used to ship merchandise to our e-commerce consumers. Occupancy costs include the rent, common area maintenance, real estate taxes, and depreciation and amortization costs of all retail locations. These costs are significant and are expected to continue increase proportionate to increase as our company grows.growth.
Gross margin is gross profit as a percentage of our sales. Gross margin is impacted by merchandise costs, pricing and promotions, product mix and availability, inflation, and service costs, which can vary. Our proprietary brands, custom-formulated products, and vertical integration provide us with cost savings, as well as greater control over product availability and quality as compared to other companies in the industry. Gross margin is also impacted by the costs of distribution and occupancy costs, which can vary.
14
Our gross profit is variable in nature and generally follows changes in sales. The components of our cost of merchandise and services sold may not be comparable to the components of cost of sales or similar measures of other companies. As a result, our gross profit and gross margin may not be comparable to similar data made available by other companies.
16
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Our selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) include&A includes selling and operating expenses at across our retail locations, digital platform, and corporate-levelcorporate-level general and administrative expenses. Selling and operating expenses at retail locations include payroll, bonus and benefit costs for personnel, supplies, and credit and debit card processing costs. Corporate expenses include payroll, bonus, and benefit costs for our corporate and field support functions, equity-based compensation, marketing and advertising, insurance, utilities, occupancy costs related to our corporate office facilities, professional services, and depreciation and amortization for all assets, except those related to our retail locations and distribution operations, which are included in cost of merchandise and services sold. Selling and operating expenses generally vary proportionately with sales and the change in the number of locations. In contrast, general and administrative expenses are generally not directly proportional to sales and the change in the number of locations but will beare expected to increase over time to support the needs of our growing company.growth and public company obligations. The components of our SG&A may not be comparable to the components of similar measures of other companies.
Operating Income (Loss)
Operating income (loss) is gross profit less SG&A. Operating income (loss) excludes interest expense, loss on debt extinguishment, income tax expense (benefit), and other expenses, net. We use operating income (loss) as an indicator of the productivity of our business and our ability to manage expenses.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest (including amortization of debt issuance costs), taxes, depreciation and amortization, management fees, equity-based compensation expense, loss on debt extinguishment, costs related to equity offerings, strategic project costs, executive transition costs, loss (gain) on disposition of assets, management fees, equity-based compensation expense, mark-to-market on interest rate cap, and other non-recurring, non-cash or discrete items. Adjusted EBITDA is a key measure used by management and our board of directors to assess our financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA is also frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry, when considered alongside other GAAP measures. We use Adjusted EBITDA to supplement GAAP measures of performance to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies, to make budgeting decisions and to compare our performance against that of other companies using similar measures.
Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized measure of financial performance under GAAP but is used by some investors to determine a company’s ability to service or incur indebtedness. Adjusted EBITDA is not calculated in the same manner by all companies, and accordingly, is not necessarily comparable to similarly entitled measures of other companies and may not be an appropriate measure for performance relative to other companies. Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an indicator of a company’s operating performance in isolation from, or as a substitute for, net income (loss), cash flows from operations or cash flow data, all of which are prepared in accordance with GAAP. We have presented Adjusted EBITDA solely as supplemental disclosure because we believe it allows for a more complete analysis of results of operations. Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to represent, and should not be considered more meaningful than, or as an alternative to, measures of operating performance as determined in accordance with GAAP. In the future, we may incur expenses or charges such as those added back to calculate Adjusted EBITDA. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by these items.
Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Net IncomeEarnings per Share
Adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted net incomeAdjusted earnings per share are additional key measures used by management and our board of directors to assess our financial performance. Adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted net incomeAdjusted earnings per share are also frequently used by analysts, investors, and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry, when considered alongside other GAAP measures.
Adjusted net income (loss) is defined as net income (loss) adjusted to exclude management fees, equity-based compensation expense, loss on debt extinguishment, costs related to equity offerings, strategic project costs, executive transition costs, loss (gain) on disposition of assets, management fees, equity-based compensation expense, mark-to-market on interest rate cap, and other non-recurring, non-cash or discrete items. Adjusted net incomediluted earnings per share is defined as adjustedAdjusted net income (loss) divided by the diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding.

Factors Affecting the Comparability of our Results of Operations
Our reported results have been affected by, among other events, the following events, which must be understood in order to assess the comparability of our period-to-period financial performance and condition.
15
Impact of COVID-19
We are closely monitoringcontinue to closely monitor the continuingongoing impact of COVID-19 on all aspects of our business and in all of our locations. As of July 3, 2021, we operated 946 locations in 38 states and all locations are currently open. During the 13- and 39- weeks ended July 3, 2021, we maintained operations as an ‘essential’ business, as defined by various federal, state, and local authorities, by providing essential products and services that maintain the safety and sanitization of homes and businesses. From time to time, certain of our locations may be temporarily closed or restricted to curbside service only. Closures and restrictions did not have a material impact on our performance during the 13- and 39-13 weeks ended JulyApril 2, 2022 and April 3, 2021.2021, respectively. We remain committed to supporting federal, state, and locallocal mandates to prevent the spread of COVID-19 while we operate our business and to do our part in protecting public health.
We help keep our communities safe from serious public health risks by providing essential products and services. Water that is not properly maintained can serve as a breeding ground for potentially fatal bacteria and viruses.
As a business, the health and safety of our consumers, communities, and associates remain our highest priority, and we continue to take all precautions recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to ensure their safety and well-being. We have proactively implemented extensive measures in response to COVID-19 throughout our business operations, including:
• Required employees who are experiencing symptoms or have been in close contact with someone who has symptoms or have been exposed to the coronavirus to stay home; • Provided additional employee benefits related to COVID-19, including paid sick leave while employees recover from receiving the COVID-19 vaccine; • Provided vaccination clinics for our employees at our corporate office and distribution centers; • Distributed personal protective equipment and implemented new monitoring protocols, including the installation of contactless temperature scanners in our corporate offices and distribution centers; • Enhanced facility cleaning including routine sanitization of high touch surfaces; • Implemented social distancing guidelines in our locations; • Implemented mask guidelines for all locations and distribution centers; • Encouraged contactless payments and introduced curbside pickup and contact-free service calls; • Executed remote workforce plan for associates in our corporate offices. Effective October 2021, all corporate office employees returned to work at the corporate office on a hybrid schedule; and • Effective October 2021, enacted a vaccination policy requiring certain employees to provide proof of vaccination or receive a religious or medical exemption. The vaccination policy currently applies to all corporate office employees.

We have also closely coordinated with our vendor partners to minimize the impact of supply disruptions and maintain the flow of essential products to meet the elevated demand from consumers in the current environment. The full impact of COVID-19 on our financial and operating performance depends significantly on the duration and severity of the pandemic, the actions taken to contain or mitigate its impact, and any changes in consumer behaviors. It is not possible to predict the likelihood, timing, or severity of the aforementioned direct and indirect impacts of COVID-19 on our business. Restrictions on the operation of our locations and distribution facilities could have a material impact on our sales and earnings. COVID-19 could also lead to significant disruption to our supply chain for products we sell and could have a material impact on our sales and earnings.
Business Acquisitions
Our business acquisitions did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations. See Note 3 – 3—Business Combinations to the accompanying unauditedour condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for information regarding ourour business acquisitions.
18
Incremental Public Company Expenses
As a newly public company we will incur significant expenses on an ongoing basis that we did not incur as a private company. Those costs include additional director compensation and director and officer liability insurance expenses, as well as third-party and internal resources related to accounting, auditing, Sarbanes-Oxley Act compliance, legal, and investor and public relations expenses. These costs will generally be expensed underincluded in SG&A in theour condensed consolidated statementstatements of operations.

Income tax benefit increased to $3.7 million for the three months ended July 3, 2021, consisted primarily of $18.2 million attributed to the increase in overall sales and our continued investments to support Company growth and $5.9 million related to higher non-cash equity-based compensation charges, partially offset by $6.0 million of lower costs compared to the prior year period associated with COVID-19.
SG&A increased to $265.1 million for the nine months ended July 3, 2021April 2, 2022 from $214.9$3.3 million in the prior year period, an increase of $50.2 million or 23.4%.

Seasonality and Quarterly Fluctuations
Our business is highly seasonal. In general, sales and earnings are highest during our fiscal yearthe third and fourth fiscal quarters, which include April through September, and represent the peak months of swimming pool use. In fiscal year 2020,2021, we generated 77%75% of our sales and 109%97% of our Adjusted EBITDA in the third and fourth quarters of our fiscal year. Sales are substantially lower during our fiscal first and second fiscal quarters. We have a long track record of investing in our business throughout the year, including in operating expenses, working capital, and capital expenditures related to new locations and other growth initiatives. While these investments drive performance during the primary selling season in our third and fourth fiscal quarters, they have a negative impact during our first and second fiscal quarters.
We experience a build-up of inventory and accounts payable during the fiscal first and second fiscal quarters of the year in anticipation of the peak swimming pool supply selling season. We negotiate extended payment terms with certain of our primary suppliers as we receive merchandise in December through March and we pay for merchandise in April through July. As a result of lower sales volumes during our fiscal first and second quarters, we reach peak borrowing during our fiscal second quarter.
The principal external factor affecting our business is weather. Hot weather can increase purchases of chemicals and other non-discretionary products and purchases of discretionary products, and can drive increased activity aroundpurchases of installation and repair services we offer.services. Unseasonably cool weather or significant amounts of rainfall during the peak sales season can reduce chemical consumption in pools and spas and decrease consumer purchases of our products and services. In addition, unseasonably early or late warming trends can increase or decrease the length of the pool season and impact timing around pool openings and closings and, therefore, our total sales and timing of our sales.
We generally open new locations before our peak selling season begins and we close locations after our peak selling season ends. We expect that our quarterly results of operations will fluctuate depending on the timing and amount of sales contributed by new locations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
Our primary sources of liquidity are net cash provided by operating activities and borrowing availability under our ABLRevolving Credit Facility. Historically, we have funded working capital requirements, capital expenditures, payments related to acquisitions, and debt service requirements and repurchases of shares of our common stock with internally generated cash on hand and borrowings underthrough our ABLRevolving Credit Facility.
Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of cash on deposit with banks. Cash and cash equivalents totaled $309.1$52.0 million and $343.5 million as of July 3,April 2, 2022 and October 2, 2021, and $157.1respectively. As of April 2, 2022, we had $45.0 million outstanding on our Revolving Credit Facility as compared to $0 as of October 3, 2020. On2, 2021. Subsequent to April 12, 2021,2, 2022, we entered into an amendment torepaid the $200.0outstanding balance of $45.0 million ABLon the Revolving Credit Facility. See Note 7-Long-Term Debt to the notes of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for more detail.
Our primary working capital requirements are for the purchase of inventory, payroll, rent, other facility costs, distribution costs, and general and administrative costs. Our working capital requirements fluctuate during the year, driven primarily by seasonality and the timing of inventory purchases.
23
Our capital expenditures are primarily related to infrastructure-related investments, including investments related to upgrading and maintaining our information technology systems, ongoing location improvements, expenditures related to our distribution centers, and new location openings. We expect to fund capital expenditures from net cash provided by operating activities.
Based on our growth plans, we believe our cash and cash equivalents position, net cash provided by operating activities and borrowing availability under our ABLRevolving Credit Facility will be adequate to finance our working capital requirements, planned capital expenditures, share repurchases, and debt service over the next 12 months. In the future, we may also allocate capital toward additional strategic acquisitions.acquisitions and share repurchases. If cash provided by operating activities and borrowings under our ABLRevolving Credit Facility are not sufficient or available to meet our capital requirements, then we will be requiredmay need to obtain additional equity or debt financing in the future.financing. There can be no assurance that equity or debt financing will be available to us if we need it or, if available, whether the terms will be satisfactory to us.
As of July 3, 2021,April 2, 2022, outstanding standby letters of credit totaled $9.2$10.0 million and, after considering borrowing base restrictions, we had $190.8$145.0 million of available borrowing capacity under the terms of the ABLRevolving Credit Facility. As of July 3, 2021,April 2, 2022, we were in compliance with the covenants under our ABLthe Revolving Credit Facility and our Term Loan agreements.

21Share Repurchase Program
On December 3, 2021, the Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program for up to an aggregate amount of $300 million of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock over a period of three years. The amount and timing of repurchases depends on a number of factors, including the Company's financial condition, capital requirements, cash flows, results of operations, future business prospects and other factors our management may deem relevant. The timing, volume and nature of repurchases, are subject to market conditions, applicable securities laws and other factors and may be amended, suspended or discontinued at any time. Shares may be repurchased from time to time on the open market, in privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC for interim reporting. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, and related disclosures. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Our estimates are based on historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Our actual results could differ from these estimates.
There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates during the 13- and 39-26- weeks ended July 3, 2021April 2, 2022 from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 3, 2020 filed with the SEC on December 23, 2020.2, 2021.

Item 3. QuantitativeWe experience inflation and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Interest Rate Risk
Our operating results are subjectdeflation related to risk from interest rate fluctuationsour purchase of certain products. This price volatility could potentially have a material impact on our borrowings, which carry variable interest rates. Our borrowings includefinancial condition and/or our ABL Credit Facility and Term Loan. Our ABL Credit Facility provides for revolving loans of up to $200.0 million, with a sub-commitment for issuance of letters of credit of $25.0 million. Because our borrowings bear interest at a variable rate, we are exposed to market risks relating to changes in interest rates. As of July 3, 2021, we had variable rate debt outstanding of $808.0 million under our Term Loan. No amounts were outstanding under our ABL Credit Facility as of July 3, 2021. In conjunction with our IPO all of our obligations related to the Senior Unsecured Notes have been settled. Based on the outstanding variable rate loan balance for the Term Loan an increase or decrease of 1% in the effective interest rate would cause an increase or decrease in interest cost of approximately $8.1 million over the next 12 months. From time to time we enter into interest rate cap agreements to manage interest rate risk. Such agreements cap the borrowing rate on variable debt to provide a hedge against the risk of rising rates. As of October 3, 2020, we had two interest rate cap agreements with a total notional amount of $750 million (the “Cap Agreements”) to mitigate the impact of fluctuations in the three-month LIBOR and effectively cap the LIBOR applicable to our variable rate debt at a rate of 3.00%. Fluctuations in the market value of the Cap Agreements are recorded in other expenses, net on our condensed consolidated statements of operations. In March 2021, our Cap Agreements expired.
Impact of Inflation
Our results of operations and financial condition are presented based on historical cost.operations. We actively manage the impact of inflation, including tariffs, through strong relationships with our diverse supplier base, vendor negotiation, and price and promotion management. We also strategically invest through inventory purchases in order to obtain favorable pricing ahead of any vendor price increases. AsIn order to mitigate price volatility, we monitor price fluctuations and may adjust our selling prices accordingly, however, our ability to recover higher costs through increased pricing may be limited by the competitive environment in which we operate. Although we may experience periodic effects on sales, gross profit, gross margins and cash flows as a result of changing prices, including most recently from inflationary pressures due primarily to supply chain disruptions complicated by the COVID-19 pandemic, we believe wedo not expect the effect of inflation or deflation to have ana material impact on our ability to substantially mitigate negative impactsexecute our long-term business strategy. We currently do not use derivative instruments to manage these risks.

PART II—II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
