Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this "Report") contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. All statements other than statements of historical or current fact included in this Report are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements refer to our current expectations and projections relating to our financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, strategies, future performance and business. You can identify forward-looking statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. These statements may include words such as “anticipate”, “estimate”, “expect”, “project”, “plan”, “intend”, “believe”, “may”, “might”, “will”, “should”, “can have”, “likely” and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of the timing or nature of future operating or financial performance or other events. For example, all statements we make relating to our estimated and projected earnings, revenues, comparable store sales, operating income, earnings per share, costs, expenditures, cash flows, growth rates and financial results, our plans and objectives for future operations, growth or initiatives, strategies or the expected outcome or impact of pending or threatened litigation are forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those that we expected, including:

•The impacts of inflation on consumer spending generally and on our expense management, operating results and financial condition;

•most of our merchandise is made in foreign countries, making price and availability of our merchandise susceptible to international trade conditions, including tariffs, which may negatively impact the cost of our merchandise purchased for sale and/or the retail price to consumers, both of which could have a negative impact on our results of operations;

•our ability to adapt to declines in consumer confidence and decreases in consumer spending;

•our ability to continue to produce comparable net sales growth in light of our recent history of operating losses, which could adversely impact our cash position if negative comparable net sales results were to occur for an extended period of time;

•the impact of fluctuations in the price and availability of raw materials, labor, and transportation;

•our ability to compete effectively in an environment of intense competition in stores, online and via social media marketing platforms;

•our ability to effectively manage inventory levels;

•our ability to adapt to changing trends in traffic for our stores and changes in our customers' purchasing patterns;

•our ability to identify and respond to new and changing customer fashion preferences and fashion-related trends;

•our ability to secure desirable lease arrangements and other economics to improve our profitability;

•our ability to successfully open new stores, profitably operate our existing stores, and/or to cost-effectively close unprofitable stores ahead of natural lease expirations;

•our ability to attract customers to our website and generate acceptable levels of return from our digital marketing efforts and other e-com growth initiatives;

•our ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to support our business, satisfy our contractual obligations, and/or to recover our investment in long-lived and right-of-use assets;

•our ability to generate sufficient pre-tax income to fully utilize our deferred tax assets;

•the success of the malls, power centers, neighborhood and lifestyle centers, outlet centers and street-front locations in which our stores are located;

•our ability to adapt to unseasonable weather impacting sales of our seasonal merchandise;

•our dependence on third-party vendors to provide us with sufficient quantities of merchandise at acceptable prices and on time;

•our ability to adapt to significant changes in sales due to the seasonality of our business;

•our dependence upon key executive management or our inability to hire or retain the talent required for our business;

•our ability to establish, maintain and enhance a strong brand image;

•our ability to balance proprietary branded merchandise with the third-party branded merchandise we sell;

•our ability to efficiently utilize our e-com fulfillment center;

•our ability to attract customers in the various retail venues and geographies in which our stores are located;

•our ability to respond to litigation claims we are subject to;

•our ability to respond to changes in employment and wage and hour laws;

•failure of our vendors and their manufacturing sources to use acceptable labor or other practices;

•our ability to effectively respond to disruptions in our supply chain and distribution center;

•our ability to adjust to increasing costs of mailing catalogs, paper and printing;

•failure of our information technology systems to support our business, before and after our planned upgrades;

•our ability to secure our data and comply with privacy laws and the security standards of the credit card industry;

•disruptions to our information systems in the ordinary course of business, as a result of systems upgrades or due to intentional attacks;

•our ability to protect our trademarks or other intellectual property rights;

•our potential liability if we or our vendors unknowingly infringe upon the intellectual property rights of third parties;

Table of Contents

•natural disasters, unusually adverse weather conditions, port delays, boycotts, epidemics, pandemics, acts of war, terrorism, civil unrest and other unanticipated events;

•the potential effects of unionization and work stoppages or slowdowns by our employees;

•continuing costs incurred as a result of being a public company; and

•our ability to respond to risks associated with climate change, environmental, social and governance initiatives, and sustainability initiatives.

We derive many of our forward-looking statements from our operating budgets and forecasts, which are based upon detailed assumptions. While we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, we caution that it is very difficult to predict the impact of known factors, and it is impossible for us to anticipate all factors that could affect our actual results.

See “Risk Factors” within our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for a more complete discussion of the risks and uncertainties mentioned above and for discussion of other risks and uncertainties. All forward-looking statements attributable to us are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements as well as others made in this Report and hereafter in our other SEC filings and public communications. You should evaluate all forward-looking statements made by us in the context of these risks and uncertainties.

We caution you that the risks and uncertainties identified by us may not be all of the factors that are important to you. Furthermore, the disclosures and forward-looking statements included in this Report are made only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as otherwise required by law.
