Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation | 1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION A. Nature of Operations Duluth Holdings Inc. (“Duluth Trading” or the “Company”), a Wisconsin corporation, is a lifestyle brand of men’s and women’s casual wear, workwear and accessories sold primarily through the Company’s own omnichannel platform. The Company’s products are marketed under the Duluth Trading name, with the majority of products being exclusively developed and sold as Duluth Trading branded merchandise. The Company identifies its operating segments according to how its business activities are managed and evaluated. The Company continues to report one reportable external segment, consistent with the Company’s omnichannel business approach. The Company’s revenues generated outside the United States were insignificant. The Company has two classes of authorized common stock: Class A common stock and Class B common stock. The rights of holders of Class A common stock and Class B common stock are identical, except for voting and conversion rights. Each share of Class A common stock is entitled to ten votes per share and is convertible at any time into one share of Class B common stock. Each share of Class B common stock is entitled to one vote per share. The Company’s Class B common stock trades on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol “DLTH.” B. Basis of Presentation The condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”). The Company consolidates TRI Holdings, LLC (“TRI”) as a variable interest entity (see Note 6 “Variable Interest Entity” for further information). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company’s fiscal year ends on the Sunday nearest to January 31 of the following year. Fiscal 2023 is a 52-week period and ends on January 28 , 2024 . Fiscal 2022 was a 52-week period and ended on January 29, 2023. The three months of fiscal 2023 and fiscal 2022 represent the Company’s 13-week periods ended April 30, 2023 and May 1, 2022, respectively. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended April 30, 2023 and May 1, 2022 have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and, in the opinion of the Company, include all adjustments (which are normal and recurring in nature) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the interim periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations as of and for the three months ended April 30, 2023 and May 1, 2022. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2023. C. Impairment Analysis As of April 30, 2023 and for the three months ended, no triggering events or indicators of asset impairment were noted. D. Inventory Inventory, consisting of purchased product, is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value, under the first-in, first-out method. The significant estimates used in inventory valuation are obsolescence (including excess and slow-moving inventory and lower of cost or market reserves) and estimates of inventory shrinkage. Both estimates have calculations that require the Company to make assumptions and apply judgment regarding a number of factors, including market conditions, the selling environment, historical results and current inventory trends. Inventory is adjusted periodically to reflect current market conditions, which requires management’s judgment that may significantly affect the ending inventory valuation, as well as gross margin. The reserve for inventory shrinkage is adjusted to reflect the trend of historical physical inventory count results. The Company performs its retail store physical inventory counts in July and the difference between actual and estimated shrinkage, recorded in Cost of goods sold, may cause fluctuations in second fiscal quarter results. E. Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets Prepaid expenses and other assets consist of the following: April 30, 2023 January 29, 2023 (in thousands) Prepaid expenses & other current assets Pending returns inventory, net $ 2,001 $ 2,373 Current software hosting implementation costs, net 3,024 3,074 Other prepaid expenses 10,893 9,707 Prepaid expenses & other current assets $ 15,918 $ 15,154 Other assets, net Goodwill $ 402 $ 402 Intangible assets, net 445 450 Non-current software hosting implementation costs 6,047 6,148 Other assets, net 1,697 1,727 Other assets, net $ 8,591 $ 8,727 F. Seasonality of Business The Company’s business is affected by the pattern of seasonality common to most apparel businesses. Historically, the Company has recognized a significant portion of its revenue and operating profit in the fourth fiscal quarter of each year due to increased sales during the holiday season. G. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Amounts receivable from credit card issuers are typically converted to cash within 2 to 4 days of the original sales transaction and are considered to be cash equivalents. H. Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2022 financial statements in order to conform to 2023 presentation. The Company reclassified $ 4.2 million and ($ 4.2 ) million from Property, Plant & Equipment and Prepaid Expenses, respectively, in the prior period. There were no changes to previously reported shareholders' equity, statement of cash flows or net income (loss) as a result of the reclassifications. I.
