Analysis of Quarterly Results:

Total sales revenue for the three months ended March 1, 2025 decreased $4,392 or 5.1% from the prior year period due primarily to the additional week in the prior year quarter.

Normalizing the first fiscal quarter of 2024 to adjust for the additional week, sales revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2025 increased $1,790 or 2.2%.

Gross margins for the three months ended March 1, 2025 increased 170 basis points over the prior year period primarily due to improved margins in the wholesale segment.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses as a percentage of sales for the three months ended March 1, 2025 decreased 150 basis points from 2024 primarily due to the benefit of cost reductions implemented during the second half of fiscal 2024.

Total sales revenue for the three months ended May 31, 2025 increased $938 or 1.1% over the prior year period.

This consisted of a $3,764 or 7.5% increase in retail sales from our Company-owned stores partially offset by a $1,742 or 5.5% decline in sales to external wholesale customers and a $1,084 decline in sales by Noa Home, which was closed during the second half of fiscal 2024.

Gross margins for the three months ended May 31, 2025 increased 310 basis points over the prior year period as we recorded $2,700 of additional inventory valuation charges during the three months ended June 1, 2024 ($1,729 in the wholesale segment, $471 in the retail segment and $500 associated with Noa Home).

Excluding those charges, gross margins would have been essentially flat.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses as a percentage of sales for the three months ended May 31, 2025 decreased 330 basis points from 2024 primarily due to the benefit of cost reductions implemented during the second half of fiscal 2024.

Analysis of Year-to-Date Results:

Total sales revenue for the six months ended May 31, 2025 decreased $3,454 or 2.0% from the prior year period.

Normalizing for the additional week in the first half of 2024, consolidated sales increased 1.7% which included a 7.1% increase in retail sales, partially offset by a 2.5% decrease in sales to external wholesale customers and a $2,946 decline due to the closure of Noa Home during the second half of 2024.

Gross margins for the six months ended May 31, 2025 increased 240 basis points over the prior year period.

Excluding the above-mentioned additional inventory valuation charges in 2024, gross margins would have increased 80 basis points primarily due to improved margins in the wholesale segment.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses as a percentage of sales for the six months ended May 31, 2025 decreased 370 basis points from 2024 primarily due to the benefit of cost reductions implemented during the second half of fiscal 2024.
