Upon reaching specified point values, customers are issued a reward, which they may redeem on merchandise purchases at the Company’s stores or on its website. Generally, rewards earned must be redeemed within 60 days from the date of issuance. The Company defers a portion of merchandise sales based on the estimated standalone selling price of the points earned. This deferred revenue is recognized as certificates are redeemed or expire. To calculate this deferral, the Company makes assumptions related to loyalty point and certificate redemption rates based on historical experience. The loyalty liability is included in deferred revenue on the unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets.</span></div><div style="text-align:center"><table

These gift cards do not expire or lose value over periods of inactivity. The Company accounts for gift cards by recognizing a liability at the time a gift card is sold. The gift card liability balance was $23.7 million and $25.6 million, as of April 29, 2023 and January 28, 2023, respectively, and is included in deferred revenue on the unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the thirteen weeks ended April 29, 2023 and April 30, 2022, the Company recognized approximately $3.7 million and $4.3 million of revenue that was previously included in the beginning gift card contract liability, respectively. The Company recognizes revenue from gift cards when they are redeemed by the customer. The Company also recognizes income on unredeemed gift cards, referred to as “gift card breakage.” Gift card breakage is recognized proportionately using a time-based attribution method from issuance of the gift card to the time when it can be determined that the likelihood of the gift card being redeemed is remote and that there is no legal obligation to remit unredeemed gift cards to relevant jurisdictions. The gift card breakage rate is based on historical redemption patterns. Gift card breakage is included within the other revenue component of net sales in the unaudited Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.</span></div><div

Revenue related to eCommerce transactions is recognized upon shipment based on the fact that control transfers to the customer at that time. The Company has made a policy election to treat shipping and handling as costs to fulfill the contract, and as a result, any amounts received from customers are included in the transaction price allocated to the performance obligation of providing goods with a corresponding amount accrued within cost of goods sold, buying and occupancy costs in the unaudited Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income for amounts paid to applicable carriers. Associate discounts on merchandise purchases are classified as a reduction of net sales.

Upon reaching specified point values, customers are issued a reward, which they may redeem on merchandise purchases at the Company’s stores or on its website. Generally, rewards earned must be redeemed within 60 days from the date of issuance. The Company defers a portion of merchandise sales based on the estimated standalone selling price of the points earned. This deferred revenue is recognized as certificates are redeemed or expire. To calculate this deferral, the Company makes assumptions related to loyalty point and certificate redemption rates based on historical experience. The loyalty liability is included in deferred revenue on the unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets.</span></div><div style="margin-bottom:7pt;margin-top:14pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Sales Returns Reserve</span></div><div style="margin-bottom:10pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Company reduces net sales and provides a reserve for projected merchandise returns based on prior experience.

The gift card liability balance was $23.7 million and $25.6 million, as of April 29, 2023 and January 28, 2023, respectively, and is included in deferred revenue on the unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the thirteen weeks ended April 29, 2023 and April 30, 2022, the Company recognized approximately $3.7 million and $4.3 million of revenue that was previously included in the beginning gift card contract liability, respectively. The Company recognizes revenue from gift cards when they are redeemed by the customer. The Company also recognizes income on unredeemed gift cards, referred to as “gift card breakage.” Gift card breakage is recognized proportionately using a time-based attribution method from issuance of the gift card to the time when it can be determined that the likelihood of the gift card being redeemed is remote and that there is no legal obligation to remit unredeemed gift cards to relevant jurisdictions. The gift card breakage rate is based on historical redemption patterns.

Royalty distributions received from the investee are recognized as a reduction of the carrying amount of the investment. The Company's share of equity (income) losses and other adjustments associated with this equity method investment is included in royalty income in the unaudited Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. The carrying value for the Company's equity investment is reported in Equity Method Investment on the unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The current lease term for the corporate headquarters expires in 2026, with one optional five-year extension period. The Company also leases certain equipment and other assets under operating leases, typically with initial terms of 3 to 5 years.

limited number of senior executive-level employees, which entitle these employees to receive a specified number of shares of the Company’s common stock upon vesting. The number of shares earned could range between 0% and 200% of the target amount depending upon performance achieved over a three-year vesting period. The performance conditions of the award include adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA") targets and total shareholder return ("TSR") of the Company’s common stock relative to a select group of peer companies. A Monte Carlo valuation model was used to determine the fair value of the awards. The TSR performance condition is a market condition. Therefore, the fair value of the portion of the awards which vest based on the TSR performance condition is fixed at the measurement date and is not revised based on actual performance during the three-year vesting period. The number of shares underlying the portion of the awards which vest based on the Company’s Adjusted EBITDA performance in relation to the pre-established targets will change during the three-year vesting period based on estimates.

The Company records the fair value of share-based payments to employees in the unaudited Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income as compensation expense, net of forfeitures, over the requisite service period. The Company issues shares of common stock from treasury stock, at average cost, upon exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted stock units, including those with performance conditions.The fair value of RSUs is generally determined based on the Company’s closing stock price on the day prior to the grant date in accordance with the 2018 Plan.

The Company may repurchase shares on the open market, including through Rule 10b5-1 plans, in privately negotiated transactions, through block purchases, or otherwise in compliance with applicable laws, including Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act of 1934. The timing and amount of stock repurchases will depend on a variety of factors, including business and market conditions as well as corporate and regulatory considerations. The share repurchase program may be suspended, modified, or discontinued at any time and the Company has no obligation to repurchase any amount of its common stock under the program. During the thirteen weeks ended April 29, 2023 and April 30, 2022, the Company did not repurchase any shares of its common stock. As of April 29, 2023, the Company had approximately $34.2 million remaining under this Board authorization.</span></div>

The Bonobos License Agreement has an initial term of 10 years from the effective date, and will automatically renew for successive renewal terms of 10 years unless (i) the Company provides notice of non-renewal at least 24 months prior to the end of the initial or applicable renewal term, or (ii) WHP exercises its right to not renew in the event of certain failures by the Company to pay the annual guaranteed minimum royalty.

The Company will pay WHP a royalty on net sales of certain licensed goods and will commit to an annual guaranteed minimum royalty during the term of the Bonobos License Agreement (ranging from $6.5 million in the first contract year to $11.5 million in the tenth contract year and each contract year thereafter). The Company will pay royalties at a rate of (i) 3.25% of net sales arising from retail sales of certain licensed goods in the first through the fifth contract years (and 3.5% thereafter), and (ii) 8% of net sales arising from wholesale sales of such goods.</span></div>
