| Pay vs Performance [Table Text Block] | Pay Versus Performance As required by Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following information about the relationship between executive compensation actually paid and certain financial performance of the Company. For further information concerning the Company’s core compensation objectives, refer to the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” Fiscal Year Summary Compensation Table Total for PEO ($) (1) Compensation Actually Paid to PEO ($) (2) Average Summary Compensation Table Total for Non-PEO NEOs ($) (3) Average Compensation Actually Paid to Non-PEO NEOs ($) (4) Value of Initial Fixed $100 Investment Based On: Net Income ($) (7) Adjusted EBITDA ($) (8) Total Shareholder Return ($) (5) Peer Group Total Shareholder Return ($) (6) (a) (b) (c) (d) (e) (f) (g) (h) (i) 2022 4,117,437 5,902,431 973,808 1,075,052 101.75 120.56 102,790 168,875 2021 4,253,126 1,021,150 814,046 712,250 84.71 142.67 157,455 237,332 2020 2,265,783 4,725,192 839,257 1,158,624 178.60 137.26 242,696 306,500 (1) The dollar amounts reported in column (b) are the amounts of total compensation reported for Mr. Swygert for each corresponding year in the “Total” column of the “Summary Compensation Table.” (2) The dollar amounts reported in column (c) represent the amount of “compensation actually paid” to Mr. Swygert, as computed in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K. The dollar amounts do not reflect the actual amount of compensation earned by or paid to Mr. Swygert during the applicable year and were not considered by the Compensation Committee at the time it made decisions with respect to Mr. Swygert’s compensation. In accordance with the requirements of Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, the following adjustments were made to Mr. Swygert’s total compensation for each year to determine the compensation actually paid to him for the relevant year: Year Reported Summary Compensation Table Total for PEO ($) Reported Value of Equity Awards ($) (a) Equity Award Adjustments ($) (b) Compensation Actually Paid to PEO ($) 2022 4,117,437 (3,199,971) 4,984,965 5,902,431 2021 4,253,126 (3,199,997) (31,979) 1,021,150 2020 2,265,783 — 2,459,409 4,725,192 (a) The grant date fair value of equity awards represents the total amounts reported in the “Stock Awards” and “Option Awards” column of the “Summary Compensation Table” (b) The equity award adjustments for each applicable year include the addition (or subtraction, as applicable) of the following: (i) the year-end fair value of any equity awards granted in the applicable year that are outstanding and unvested as of the end of the year; (ii) the amount of change as of the end of the applicable year (from the end of the prior fiscal year) in fair value of any equity awards granted in prior years that are outstanding and unvested as of the end of the applicable year; and (iii) for equity awards granted in prior years that vest in the applicable year, the amount equal to the change as of the vesting date (from the end of the prior fiscal year) in fair value. The Company did not (i) grant any equity awards that were granted and vested in the same year, (ii) grant any performance-based vesting equity awards, or (iii) pay any dividends or other earnings on equity awards that are not otherwise reflected in the fair value of the equity award. The amounts deducted or added in calculating the equity award adjustments are as follows: Fiscal Year 2022 2021 2020 Year End Fair Value of Equity Awards Granted During the Year ($) 4,162,954 1,698,456 — Year over Year Change in Fair Value of Outstanding and Unvested Equity Awards Granted in Prior Years ($) 675,099 (1,362,003) 2,455,150 Year over Year Change in Fair Value of Equity Awards Granted in Prior Years that Vested in the Year ($) 146,912 (368,432) 4,259 Subtract: Forfeitures During Current Year Equal to Prior Year-end Fair Value ($) — — — Total Equity Award Adjustments ($) 4,984,965 (31,979) 2,459,409 (3) The dollar amounts reported in column (d) represent the average of the amounts reported for the Company’s NEOs as a group (excluding Mr. Swygert) in the “Total” column of the “Summary Compensation Table” (4) The dollar amounts reported in column (e) represent the average amount of “compensation actually paid” to the NEOs as a group (excluding Mr. Swygert), as computed in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K. The dollar amounts do not reflect the actual average amount of compensation earned by or paid to the NEOs as a group (excluding Mr. Swygert) during the applicable year and were not considered by the Compensation Committee at the time it made decisions with respect to the compensation of the NEOs. In accordance with the requirements of Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, the following adjustments were made to average total compensation for the NEOs as a group (excluding Mr. Swygert) for each year to determine the compensation actually paid, using the same methodology described above in Note 2: Year Average Reported Summary Compensation Table Total for Non-PEO NEOs ($) Average Reported Value of Equity Awards ($) Average Equity Award Adjustments ($) (a) Average Compensation Actually Paid to Non-PEO NEOs ($) 2022 973,808 (346,132) 447,376 $1,075,052 2021 814,046 (233,445) 131,649 712,250 2020 839,257 (182,360) 501,727 1,158,624 (a) The amounts deducted or added in calculating the total average equity award adjustments are as follows: Fiscal Year 2022 2021 2020 Average Year End Fair Value of Equity Awards Granted During the Year ($) 678,828 245,981 433,545 Year over Year Average Change in Fair Value of Outstanding and Unvested Equity Awards Granted in Prior Years ($) 28,942 (109,640) 75,332 Year over Year Average Change in Fair Value of Equity Awards Granted in Prior Years that Vested in the Year ($) 1,034 (4,692) (7,150) Subtract: Forfeitures During Current Year Equal to Prior Year-end Fair Value ($) (261,428) — — Total Average Equity Award Adjustments ($) 447,376 131,649 501,727 (5) Cumulative TSR is calculated by dividing the sum of the cumulative amount of dividends for the measurement period, assuming dividend reinvestment, and the difference between the Company’s share price at the end and the beginning of the measurement period by the Company’s share price at the beginning of the measurement period. (6) Represents the weighted peer group TSR, weighted according to the respective companies’ stock market capitalization at the beginning of each period for which a return is indicated. The peer group used for this purpose is the following published industry index: the NASDAQ US Benchmark Retail Index over the same period. (7) The dollar amounts reported represent the amount of net income reflected in the Company’s audited financial statements for the applicable year. (8) Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income before net interest income or expense, depreciation and amortization expenses, and income taxes, further adjusted for non-cash stock-based compensation expense and gains on insurance settlements. While the Company uses various financial and non-financial performance measures for the purpose of evaluating performance for the Company’s compensation programs, the Company has determined that Adjusted EBITDA is the financial performance measure that, in the Company’s and the Compensation Committee’s assessment, represents the most important performance measure (that is not otherwise required to be disclosed in the table) used by the Company to link compensation actually paid to the company’s NEOs, for the most recently completed fiscal year, to company performance. Reconciliation and further information for Adjusted EBITDA can be found on page 39 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 24, 2023. | ||
