SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND MARKET DATA

This quarterly report contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements give our current expectations and projections relating to our financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, 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," "will," "short-term," "non-recurring," "one-time," "unusual," "should," "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.

Forward-looking statements are subject to risk and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those that we expected. We derive many of our forward-looking statements from our operating budgets and forecasts, which are based upon many 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. Matters that we identify as "short term," "non-recurring," "unusual," "one-time," or other words and terms of similar meaning may, in fact, not be short term and may recur in one or more future financial reporting periods. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations, or cautionary statements, are disclosed under the section entitled Risk Factors in our 2024 Form 10-K, and Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Part I of this quarterly report and in our 2024 Form 10-K. All forward-looking statements attributable to us, or persons acting on our behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements, as well as other cautionary statements. You should evaluate all forward-looking statements made in this quarterly report in the context of these risks and uncertainties.

We cannot assure you that we will realize the results or developments we expect or anticipate or, even if substantially realized, that they will result in the consequences or affect us or our operations in the way we expect, or that future developments affecting us will be those that we have anticipated. The forward-looking statements included in this quarterly report are made only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

Overview

We are a leading retailer and luxury lifestyle brand operating primarily in the home furnishings market. Our curated and fully integrated assortments are presented consistently across our sales channels, including our retail locations, websites and Sourcebooks. We offer merchandise assortments across a number of categories, including furniture, lighting, textiles, bathware, décor, outdoor and garden, and baby, child and teen furnishings. Our retail business is fully integrated across our multiple channels of distribution. We position our Galleries as showrooms for our brand, while our websites and Sourcebooks act as virtual and print extensions of our physical spaces, respectively. We operate our retail locations throughout the United States and Canada as well as in the United Kingdom, Germany, Belgium and Spain and have an integrated RH Hospitality experience in 21 of our Design Gallery locations, which includes restaurants and wine bars.

We have recently undertaken efforts to introduce the most prolific collection of new products in our history, with a substantial number of new furniture and upholstery collections across RH Interiors, RH Modern, RH Outdoor, RH Baby & Child and RH TEEN. These new collections reflect a level of design and quality inaccessible in our current market, and a value proposition that we believe will be disruptive across multiple markets.

Business Conditions

In recent years, our business has been negatively affected and limited by macroeconomic conditions, including high interest rates and mortgage rates, volatility in the global financial markets and the slowdown in the luxury home market as well as other negative factors related to the effects of lingering higher inflation and increased costs, including higher construction expenses.

Since the majority of our product assortment is imported from vendors outside the U.S., we also face uncertainty and risks related to tariffs and other trade policies, which may increase the costs of securing products from our vendors. Tariffs and other non-tariff trade practices and policies may adversely affect our business in other ways beyond increased costs for our products. We have taken steps to move our supply chain away from countries with higher tariff rates in favor of other jurisdictions, but these countermeasures may prove to be ineffective and the ability to predict tariff rates in different countries may be difficult as policies may change on short notice. Uncertainty about trade policy, tariff rates, and other changes in practices affecting international trade might have an adverse effect on our business and results of operation and we may face challenges in implementing the optimal responses to changing trade conditions.

In addition, there is meaningful uncertainty related to the confluence of different macroeconomic factors that could influence business conditions in the U.S. While our expectation is that these different factors will moderate in the future, the timing and precise outlook for these improvements is uncertain. We also believe we have positioned the business to take advantage of any favorable progression in macroeconomic conditions.

Our decisions regarding the sources and uses of capital will continue to reflect and adapt to changes in market conditions and our business, including further developments with respect to macroeconomic factors.

Strategic Initiatives

We are in the process of implementing a number of significant business initiatives that have had, and will continue to have, an impact on our results of operations. As a result, we have experienced in the past, and may experience in the future, significant period-to-period variability in our financial performance and results of operations. While we anticipate that these initiatives will support the growth of our business, costs and timing issues associated with pursuing these initiatives can negatively affect our growth rates in the short term and may amplify fluctuations in our growth rates from quarter to quarter. Delays in the rate of opening new Galleries and pursuit of our international expansion have resulted in delays in the corresponding increase in net revenues that we ordinarily experience as new Design Galleries are introduced. In addition, we anticipate that our net revenues, adjusted net income (loss) and other performance metrics will remain variable as our business model continues to emphasize high growth and numerous, concurrent and evolving business initiatives.

For more information, refer to the sections entitled Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Risk Factors in our 2024 Form 10-K.

Key Value-Driving Strategies

In order to achieve our long-term strategies of product transformation, platform expansion and cash generation as well as drive growth across our business, we are focused on the following key strategies and business initiatives:

Product Elevation. We believe we have built the most comprehensive and compelling collection of luxury home furnishings under one brand in the world. Our products are presented across multiple collections, categories and channels that we control, and we believe their desirability and exclusivity have enabled us to achieve strong revenues and margins. Our customers know our brand concepts as RH Interiors, RH Modern, RH Outdoor, RH Beach House, RH Ski House, RH Baby & Child, RH TEEN and Waterworks. Our strategy is to continue to elevate the design and quality of our product. Beginning with the mailing of our RH Interiors Sourcebook in the fall of 2023 and with additional Sourcebook mailings throughout 2024 and the beginning of 2025, we have introduced the most prolific collection of new products in our history. In addition, over the next few years, we plan to introduce RH Couture, RH Bespoke and RH Color.

Gallery Transformation. Our products are elevated and rendered more valuable by our architecturally inspiring Galleries. We believe our strategy to open new Design Galleries in every major market in North America will unlock the value of our vast assortment, generating an expected annual revenue opportunity for our business of $5 to $6 billion. We believe we can significantly increase our sales by transforming our real estate platform from our existing legacy retail footprint to a portfolio of Design Galleries sized to the potential of each market and the size of our assortment. In addition, we plan to incorporate hospitality into many of the new Design Galleries that we open in the future, which further elevates and renders our product and brand more valuable. We believe hospitality has created a unique new retail experience that cannot be replicated online, and that the addition of hospitality drives incremental sales of home furnishings in these Galleries.

Brand Elevation. Our strategy is to move the brand beyond curating and selling product to conceptualizing and selling spaces, by building an ecosystem of Products, Places, Services and Spaces that establishes the RH brand as a global thought leader, taste and place maker. We believe our seamlessly integrated ecosystem of immersive experiences inspires customers to dream, design, dine, travel and live in a world thoughtfully curated by RH, creating an impression and connection unlike any other brand in the world. Our hospitality efforts will continue to elevate the RH brand as we extend beyond the four walls of our Galleries into RH Guesthouses, where our goal is to create a new market for travelers seeking privacy and luxury in the $200 billion North American hotel industry. We entered this industry with the opening of the RH Guesthouse New York in September 2022 and are in the process of constructing our second RH Guesthouse in Aspen. In June 2023, we opened RH England, The Gallery at the Historic Aynho Park, a 400-year-old landmark estate representing the most inspiring and immersive physical expression of the brand to date. RH England marked the beginning of our global expansion beyond North America. Additionally, we offer bespoke experiences like RH Yountville, an integration of Food, Wine, Art & Design in the Napa Valley; RH1 & RH2, our private jets; and RH3, our luxury yacht that is available for charter in the Caribbean and Mediterranean, where the wealthy and affluent visit and vacation. These immersive experiences expose both new and existing customers to our evolving authority in architecture, interior design and landscape architecture.

2025 FIRST QUARTER FORM 10-Q | 31

Global Expansion. We believe that our luxury brand positioning and unique aesthetic have strong international appeal, and that pursuit of global expansion will provide RH with a substantial opportunity to build over time a projected $20 to $25 billion global brand in terms of annual revenues. Our view is that the competitive environment globally is more fragmented and primed for disruption than the North American market, and there is no direct competitor of scale that possesses the product, operational platform, and brand strength of RH. As such, we are actively pursuing the expansion of the RH brand globally, which began with the opening of RH England, RH Munich and RH Düsseldorf in 2023, followed by the opening of RH Brussels in March 2024 and RH Madrid in June 2024. We are also under construction in Paris, London and Milan in inspiring spaces that will celebrate the heritage of the historic structures and will integrate full expressions of our hospitality experiences. In addition, we plan to open RH Sydney, The Gallery in Double Bay, in Australia in the coming years.

Digital Reimagination. Our strategy is to digitally reimagine the RH brand and business model both internally and externally. Internally, our multiyear effort began with the reimagination of our Center of Innovation to incorporate digitally integrated visuals and decision data designed to amplify the creative process from product ideation to product presentation. Externally, our strategy comes to life digitally through The World of RH, an online portal where customers can explore and be inspired by the depth and dimension of our brand. We expect to continue to elevate the customer experience on The World of RH with further enhancements to content, navigation and search functionality. We believe an opportunity exists to create similar strategic separation online as we have with our Galleries offline, reconceptualizing what a website can and should be. We are making meaningful investments to elevate and differentiate our online experience with plans to upgrade our website throughout 2025.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, we use non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted operating income, adjusted net income (loss), EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted capital expenditures (collectively, "non-GAAP financial measures"). We compute these measures by adjusting the applicable GAAP measures to remove the impact of certain recurring and non-recurring charges and gains and the tax effect of these adjustments. The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. We use these non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision-making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. We believe that they provide useful information about operating results, enhance the overall understanding of past financial performance and future prospects, and allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by senior leadership in its financial and operational decision-making. The non-GAAP financial measures used by us in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may be different from the non-GAAP financial measures, including similarly titled measures, used by other companies.

For more information on the non-GAAP financial measures, please see the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures tables outlined below. These accompanying tables include details on the GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to non-GAAP financial measures and the related reconciliations between these financial measures.

Adjusted Operating Income. Adjusted operating income is a supplemental measure of financial performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. We define adjusted operating income as consolidated operating income, adjusted for the impact of certain non-recurring and other items that we do not consider representative of our underlying operating performance.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are supplemental measures of financial performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. We define EBITDA as consolidated net income (loss) before depreciation and amortization, interest expense-net and income tax expense (benefit). Adjusted EBITDA reflects further adjustments to EBITDA to eliminate the impact of non-cash compensation, as well as certain non-recurring and other items that we do not consider representative of our underlying operating performance.

(1) The results for the Real Estate segment were immaterial in the three months ended May 3, 2025 and May 4, 2024, thus, such results are presented within the RH Segment each period. Refer to Note 14-Segment Reportingin the condensed consolidated financial statements. Additionally, all intercompany transactions are immaterial and have been eliminated.
(2) RH Segment net revenues include outlet revenues of $67 million and $62 million for the three months ended May 3, 2025 and May 4, 2024, respectively.

Net revenues

Consolidated net revenues increased $87 million, or 12.0%, to $814 million in the three months ended May 3, 2025 compared to $727 million in the three months ended May 4, 2024.

RH Segment net revenues

RH Segment net revenues increased $88 million, or 13.0%, to $765 million in the three months ended May 3, 2025 compared to $677 million in the three months ended May 4, 2024. The below discussion highlights the primary factors that impacted RH Segment net revenues, which are listed in order of magnitude.

RH Segment net revenues for the three months ended May 3, 2025 increased primarily due to higher revenue in our core business driven by our continued product transformation and platform expansion. In addition, hospitality revenue increased as a result of new Gallery openings and we had higher outlet revenue.

Waterworks net revenues

Waterworks net revenues decreased $0.9 million, or 1.9%, to $49 million in the three months ended May 3, 2025 compared to $50 million in the three months ended May 4, 2024.

Gross profit

Consolidated gross profit increased $39 million, or 12.4%, to $355 million in the three months ended May 3, 2025 compared to $316 million in the three months ended May 4, 2024. As a percentage of net revenues, consolidated gross margin increased 20 basis points to 43.7% of net revenues in the three months ended May 3, 2025 from 43.5% of net revenues in the three months ended May 4, 2024.

RH Segment gross profit

RH Segment gross profit increased $40 million, or 13.8%, to $330 million in the three months ended May 3, 2025 from $290 million in the three months ended May 4, 2024. As a percentage of net revenues, RH Segment gross margin increased 30 basis points to 43.1% of net revenues in the three months ended May 3, 2025 from 42.8% of net revenues in the three months ended May 4, 2024. The increase in RH Segment gross margin was primarily attributable to leverage in occupancy costs and shipping costs as well as increased margins in the RH core business year over year. This increase in gross margin was partially offset by an increase in other product costs.

Waterworks gross profit

Waterworks gross profit was $26 million in both the three months ended May 3, 2025 and May 4, 2024. As a percentage of net revenues, Waterworks gross margin decreased 40 basis points to 52.2% of net revenues in the three months ended May 3, 2025 from 52.6% of net revenues in the three months ended May 4, 2024.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses increased $38 million, or 14.6%, to $299 million in the three months ended May 3, 2025 from $261 million in the three months ended May 4, 2024.

RH Segment selling, general and administrative expenses

RH Segment selling, general and administrative expenses increased $35 million, or 14.4%, to $279 million in the three months ended May 3, 2025 compared to $244 million in the three months ended May 4, 2024.

RH Segment selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended May 3, 2025 and May 4, 2024 included non-cash compensation of $0.9 million and $1.9 million, respectively, related to an option grant made to Mr. Friedman in October 2020. In addition, RH Segment selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended May 4, 2024 included favorable net legal settlements of $6.2 million.

RH Segment selling, general and administrative expenses were 36.4% and 36.7% of net revenues for the three months ended May 3, 2025 and May 4, 2024, respectively, excluding the adjustments mentioned above. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net revenues was primarily driven by leverage in pre-opening and travel, occupancy and compensation costs year over year. We also recognized an increase in advertising costs primarily due to the circulation of the Spring 2025 RH Interiors Sourcebook with no comparable mailing in the prior year, which was partially offset by a decrease in costs for the RH Outdoor Sourcebook in 2025 as compared to 2024.

Waterworks selling, general and administrative expenses

Waterworks selling, general and administrative expenses increased $3.0 million, or 17.5%, to $20 million in the three months ended May 3, 2025 compared to $17 million in the three months ended May 4, 2024.

Waterworks selling, general and administrative expenses in the three months ended May 4, 2024 included $3.2 million related to a favorable legal settlement. Excluding the adjustment for the legal settlement, Waterworks selling, general and administrative expenses would have increased 40 basis points to 41.4% of net revenues in the three months ended May 3, 2025, compared to 41.0% of net revenues for the three months ended May 4, 2024.

Refer to Note 8-Credit Facilitiesin the condensed consolidated financial statements for further information on our ABL Credit Agreement.

General

The primary cash needs of our business have historically been for merchandise inventories, payroll, rent for our retail and outlet locations, capital expenditures associated with opening new locations and related real estate investments, updating existing locations, as well as the development of our infrastructure and information technology, and Sourcebooks. We seek out and evaluate opportunities for effectively managing and deploying capital in ways that improve working capital and support and enhance our business initiatives and strategies. During fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2023, we invested $2,265 million of cash, inclusive of excise taxes paid, in the purchase of shares of our common stock pursuant to our Share Repurchase Program. We continuously evaluate our capital allocation strategy and may engage in future investments in connection with existing or new share repurchase programs (refer to "Share Repurchase Program" below), which may include investments in derivatives or other equity linked instruments. We have in the past been, and continue to be, opportunistic in responding to favorable market conditions regarding both sources and uses of capital. Capital raised from debt financing arrangements has enabled us to pursue various investments, including our investments in joint ventures. We expect to continue to take an opportunistic approach regarding both sources and uses of capital in connection with our business.

We believe our capital structure provides us with substantial optionality regarding capital allocation. Our near-term decisions regarding the sources and uses of capital will continue to reflect and adapt to changes in market conditions and our business, including further developments with respect to macroeconomic factors affecting business conditions, such as trends in luxury housing, increases in interest rates, equity market performance and inflation. We believe our existing cash balances and operating cash flows, in conjunction with available financing arrangements, will be sufficient to repay our debt obligations as they become due, meet working capital requirements and fulfill other capital needs for more than the next 12 months.

PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

2025 FIRST QUARTER FORM 10-Q | 40

While we do not anticipate that we will require additional debt financing to fund our operations, our goal is to continue to be in a position to take advantage of the many opportunities that we identify in connection with our business and operations. We have pursued in the past, and may pursue in the future, additional strategies to generate capital to pursue opportunities and investments, including through the strategic sale of existing assets, utilization of our credit facilities, entry into various credit agreements and other new debt financing arrangements that present attractive terms. We expect to continue to use additional sources of debt financing in future periods as a source of additional capital to fund our various investments.

To the extent we choose to secure additional sources of liquidity through incremental debt financing, there can be no assurances that we will be able to raise such financing on favorable terms, if at all, or that future financing requirements will not require us to raise money through an equity financing or by other means that could be dilutive to holders of our capital stock. Any adverse developments in the U.S. or global credit markets could affect our ability to manage our debt obligations and our ability to access future debt. In addition, agreements governing existing or new debt facilities may restrict our ability to operate our business in the manner we currently expect or to make required payments with respect to existing commitments, including the repayment of the principal amount of our convertible senior notes in cash, whether upon stated maturity, early conversion or otherwise of such convertible senior notes. To the extent we need to seek waivers from any provider of debt financing, or we fail to observe the covenants or other requirements of existing or new debt facilities, any such event could have an impact on our other commitments and obligations, including triggering cross defaults or other consequences with respect to other indebtedness. Our current level of indebtedness, and any additional indebtedness that we may incur, exposes us to certain risks with regards to interest rate increases and fluctuations. Our ability to make interest payments or to refinance any of our indebtedness to manage such interest rates may be limited or negatively affected by credit market conditions, macroeconomic trends and other risks.

Credit Facilities and Debt Arrangements

We amended and restated the ABL Credit Agreement in July 2021, which provides an asset based credit facility with an initial availability of up to $600 million, of which $10 million is available to Restoration Hardware Canada, Inc., and includes a $300 million accordion feature under which the revolving line of credit may be expanded by agreement of the parties from $600 million to up to $900 million if and to the extent the lenders revise their credit commitments to encompass a larger facility. The accordion feature may be added as a first-in, last-out term loan facility. The ABL Credit Agreement further provides the borrowers may request a European sub-credit facility under the revolving line of credit or under the accordion feature for borrowing by certain European subsidiaries of RH if certain conditions set out in the ABL Credit Agreement are met. The maturity date of the asset based credit facility is July 29, 2026.

We entered into a $2,000 million term debt financing in October 2021 (the "Term Loan B") by means of a Term Loan Credit Agreement through RHI as the borrower, Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent and collateral agent, and the various lenders party thereto (the "Term Loan Credit Agreement"). Term Loan B has a maturity date of October 20, 2028. We are required to make quarterly principal payments of $5.0 million with respect to Term Loan B.

In May 2022, we entered into an incremental term debt financing (the "Term Loan B-2") in an aggregate principal amount equal to $500 million by means of an amendment to the Term Loan Credit Agreement with RHI as the borrower, Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent and the various lenders parties thereto (the "Amended Term Loan Credit Agreement"). Term Loan B-2 has a maturity date of October 20, 2028. Term Loan B-2 constitutes a separate class from the existing Term Loan B under the Term Loan Credit Agreement. We are required to make quarterly principal payments of $1.3 million with respect to Term Loan B-2.

2025 FIRST QUARTER FORM 10-Q | 41

Capital

We have invested significant capital expenditures in developing and opening new Design Galleries, and these capital expenditures have increased in the past, and may continue to increase in future periods, as we open additional Design Galleries, which may require us to undertake upgrades to historical buildings or construction of new buildings. Our adjusted capital expenditures include capital expenditures from investing activities and cash outflows of capital related to construction activities to design and build landlord-owned leased assets, net of tenant allowances received during the construction period. During the three months ended May 3, 2025, adjusted capital expenditures were $70 million in aggregate, net of cash received related to landlord tenant allowances of $4.1 million. In addition, we also received landlord tenant allowances under finance leases subsequent to lease commencement of $1.4 million during the three months ended May 3, 2025. We anticipate our adjusted capital expenditures to be $275 million to $325 million in fiscal 2025, primarily related to our growth and expansion, including construction of new Design Galleries and infrastructure investments. Nevertheless, we may elect to pursue additional capital expenditures beyond those that are anticipated during any given fiscal period inasmuch as our strategy is to be opportunistic with respect to our investments and we may choose to pursue certain capital transactions based on the availability and timing of unique opportunities. There are a number of macroeconomic factors and uncertainties affecting the overall business climate as well as our business, including increased inflation and higher interest rates, and we may make adjustments to our allocation of capital in fiscal 2025 or beyond in response to these changing or other circumstances. We may also invest in other uses of our liquidity such as share repurchases, acquisitions and growth initiatives, including through joint ventures and real estate investments.

Certain lease arrangements require the landlord to fund a portion of the construction related costs through payments directly to us. As we develop new Galleries, as well as other potential strategic initiatives in the future like our integrated hospitality experience, we are exploring other models for our real estate activities, which include different terms and conditions for real estate transactions. These transactions may involve longer lease terms or further purchases of, or joint ventures or other forms of equity ownership in, real estate interests associated with new sites and buildings that we wish to develop for new Gallery locations or other aspects of our business. These approaches might require different levels of capital investment on our part than a traditional store lease with a landlord. We have also begun executing changes in our real estate strategy to transition some projects from a leasing model to a development model, where we buy and develop real estate for our Design Galleries either directly or through joint ventures and other structures with the ultimate objective of (i) recouping a majority of the investment through a sale-leaseback arrangement and (ii) resulting in lower capital investment and lower rent. For example, we have entered into arrangements with a third-party development partner to develop real estate for future RH Design Galleries. In the event that such capital and other expenditures require us to pursue additional funding sources, we can provide no assurance that we will be successful in securing additional funding on attractive terms or at all. In addition, our capital needs and uses of capital may change in the future due to changes in our business or new opportunities that we may pursue.

PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

2025 FIRST QUARTER FORM 10-Q | 42

For the three months ended May 3, 2025, net cash provided by operating activities was $87 million and consisted of net income of $8.0 million and an increase in non-cash items of $81 million, partially offset by a change in working capital and other activities of $2.0 million. The use of cash from working capital was primarily driven by a decrease in operating lease liabilities of $35 million, an increase in landlord assets under construction, net of tenant allowances, of $18 million, a decrease in other current and non-current liabilities of $12 million and a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $10 million. These uses of cash from working capital were partially offset by an increase in deferred revenue and customer deposits of $54 million and a decrease in merchandise inventory of $18 million.

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities

Investing activities consist primarily of investments in capital expenditures related to investments in retail stores, information technology and systems infrastructure, as well as supply chain investments. Investing activities also include our strategic investments.

For the three months ended May 3, 2025, net cash used in investing activities was $45 million and was comprised of investments in retail stores, information technology and systems infrastructure of $53 million and an acquisition of an intangible asset of $2.8 million. These cash outflows were partially offset by cash received from a distribution of return of equity method investments of $7.9 million and receipt of a promissory note repaid by our equity method investee of $1.8 million.

Net Cash Used in Financing Activities

Financing activities consist primarily of borrowings and repayments related to credit facilities, convertible senior notes and other financing arrangements, and cash used in connection with such financing activities include investments in our share repurchase program, repayment of indebtedness, including principal payments under finance lease agreements and other equity related transactions.

For the three months ended May 3, 2025, net cash used in financing activities was $27 million primarily due to net repayments under the asset based credit facility of $15 million, net payments under finance lease agreements of $6.5 million and payments under term loans of $6.3 million.

Non-Cash Transactions

Non-cash transactions consist of non-cash additions of property and equipment and landlord assets under construction, as well as excise tax from share repurchases, included in accounts payable and accrued expenses at period-end.

Cash Requirements from Contractual Obligations

Leases

We lease nearly all of our retail and outlet locations, corporate headquarters, distribution centers and home delivery center locations, as well as other storage and office space. Refer to Note 7-Leases in the condensed consolidated financial statements for further information on our lease arrangements, including the maturities of our operating and finance lease liabilities.

Most lease arrangements provide us with the option to renew the leases at defined terms. The table presenting the maturities of our lease liabilities included in Note 7-Leases in the condensed consolidated financial statements includes future obligations for renewal options that are reasonably certain to be exercised and are included in the measurement of the lease liability. Amounts presented therein do not include future lease payments under leases that have not commenced or estimated contingent rent due under operating and finance leases.

Real Estate Loans

Refer to Note 5-Variable Interest Entities in the condensed consolidated financial statements for further information on the real estate loan held as part of our joint ventures with a third-party development partner.

Share Repurchase Program

In 2018, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or other means, including through Rule 10b-18 open market repurchases, Rule 10b5-1 trading plans or through the use of other techniques such as the acquisition of other equity linked instruments, accelerated share repurchases, including through privately negotiated arrangements in which a portion of the share repurchase program is committed in advance through a financial intermediary and/or in transactions involving hedging or derivatives.

On June 2, 2022, the Board of Directors authorized an additional $2,000 million for the purchase of shares of our outstanding common stock, which increased the total authorized size of the share repurchase program to $2,450 million (the "Share Repurchase Program"). We did not repurchase any shares of our common stock under the Share Repurchase Program during the three months ended May 3, 2025. As of May 3, 2025, $201 million remains available for future share repurchases under the Share Repurchase Program.

We regularly review share repurchase activity and consider various factors in determining whether and when to execute investments in connection with our share repurchase program, including, among others, current cash needs, capacity for leverage, cost of borrowings, results of operations and the market price of our common stock. We believe that our share repurchase program will continue to be an excellent allocation of capital for the long-term benefit of our shareholders. We may undertake other repurchase programs in the future with respect to our securities. Since January 1, 2023, share repurchases under our Share Repurchase Program are subject to a 1% excise tax imposed under the Inflation Reduction Act.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires senior leadership to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes, as well as the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We evaluate our accounting policies, estimates, and judgments on an on-going basis. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions and such differences could be material to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Our senior leadership team evaluates the development and selection of our critical accounting policies and estimates and believes that certain of our significant accounting policies involve a higher degree of judgment or complexity and are most significant to reporting our consolidated results of operations and financial position and are therefore discussed as critical:

Merchandise Inventories-Reserves

Impairment-Long-Lived Assets

Lease Accounting-Determination of the Classification of New Real Estate Lease Contracts

Reasonably Certain Lease Term

Incremental Borrowing Rate

Fair Value

Variable Interest Entities

There have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies and estimates listed above from the disclosures included in the 2024 Form 10-K. For further discussion regarding these policies, refer to Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates in the 2024 Form 10-K.
