Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) 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 brand, 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 2021 is a 52-week period and ends on January 30, 2022 . Fiscal 2020 was a 52-week period and ended on January 31, 2021. The three months of fiscal 2021 and fiscal 2020 represent the Company’s 13 week periods ended May 2, 2021 and May 3, 2020, respectively. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended May 2, 2021 and May 3, 2020 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 May 2, 2021 and May 3, 2020. 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 31, 2021. C. COVID-19 In March 2020, a novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) was declared a global pandemic by the World Health Organization. This pandemic has negatively affected the U.S. and global economies, disrupted global supply chains and financial markets, led to significant travel and transportation restrictions, including mandatory business closures and orders to shelter in place. These impacts are discussed within these notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements. The ultimate impact of COVID-19 on our operational and financial performance still depends on future developments outside of our control. Given the uncertainty, we cannot reasonably estimate the continued impact on our business and whether that impact will be different than what we have already experienced. D. Impairment Analysis As of May 2, 2021 and for the three months then ended, no triggering events or indicators of asset impairment were noted. At May 3, 2020, the Company determined that the effects of COVID-19 represented indicators of asset impairment, and as a result, performed interim impairment assessments for the Company’s intangible assets, long-lived assets and goodwill. Due to the nature of the Company’s intangible assets balance, the Company concluded that no indicators of impairment were present. 10 Table of Contents DULUTH HOLDINGS INC. Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) Based on these assessments, the Company concluded that no impairment losses had been incurred. However, the Company cannot predict the future impact or duration of the negative effect of COVID-19 and as a result, cannot reasonably predict the probability or amount of impairment losses that may be incurred in future periods. There were no triggering events subsequent to the quarter ended May 3, 2020. E. Inventory Inventory consists of finished goods stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost determined using the first-in, first-out valuation method. The Company records an inventory reserve for the anticipated loss associated with selling inventories below cost. Inventory reserve for excess and obsolete items was $ 1.8 million and $ 1.6 million as of May 2, 2021 and January 31, 2021, respectively F. Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets Prepaid expenses and other assets consist of the following: May 2, 2021 January 31, 2021 (in thousands) Prepaid expenses & other current assets Pending returns inventory, net $ 2,072 $ 2,490 Current software hosting implementation costs, net 1,246 1,149 Other prepaid expenses 7,662 6,564 Prepaid expenses & other current assets $ 10,980 $ 10,203 Other assets, net Goodwill $ 402 $ 402 Intangible assets, net 260 264 Non-current software hosting implementation costs 2,493 2,755 Other assets, net 912 540 Other assets, net $ 4,067 $ 3,961 G. 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 as a result of increased sales during the holiday season. H. 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. I. Significant Accounting Policies There have been no significant changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies as described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2021. 2. LEASES Based on the criteria set forth in ASC Topic 842, Leases (“ASC 842”), the Company recognizes ROU assets and lease liabilities related to leases on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The Company determines if an arrangement is, or contains, a lease at inception. ROU assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities reflect the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. At any given time during the lease term, the lease liability represents the present value of the remaining lease payments and the ROU asset is measured at the amount of the lease liability, adjusted for pre-paid rent, unamortized initial direct costs and the remaining balance of lease incentives received. Both the lease ROU asset and liability are reduced to zero at the end of the lease. The Company leases retail space under non-cancelable lease agreements, which expire on various dates through 2036. Substantially all of these arrangements are store leases. Store leases generally have initial lease terms ranging from five years to 11 Table of Contents DULUTH HOLDINGS INC. Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) fifteen years with renewal options and rent escalation provisions. At the commencement of a lease, the Company includes only the initial lease term as the option to extend is not reasonably certain. The Company does not record leases with a lease term of 12 months or less on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. When calculating the lease liability on a discounted basis, the Company applies its estimated discount. The Company bases this discount on a collateralized interest rate as well as publicly available data for instruments with similar characteristics. In addition to rent payments, leases for retail space contain payments for real estate taxes, insurance costs, common area maintenance, and utilities that are not fixed. The Company accounts for these costs as variable payments and does not include such costs as a lease component. Due to the adverse impacts of COVID-19, the Company negotiated rent deferral and payback periods with a number of the Company’s store landlords for the months of April and May 2020. Based on the guidance set forth in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Staff Q&A “Topic 842 and Topic 840: Accounting for Lease Concessions Related to the Effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic” the Company has accounted for these deferrals as if no changes to the lease contract were made and will not elect to apply the lease modification guidance under ASC 842. As of May 2, 2021 the Company has deferred rent of approximately $ 0.4 million which was recorded within accrued expenses and other current liabilities and will be paid in accordance with the concession arrangements. The expense components of the Company’s leases reflected on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations were as follows: Consolidated Statement Three Months Ended of Operations May 2, 2021 May 3, 2020 (in thousands) Finance lease expenses Amortization of right-of-use ‎ assets Selling, general and ‎ administrative expenses $ 838 $ 657 Interest on lease liabilities Interest expense 495 438 Total finance lease expense $ 1,333 $ 1,095 Operating lease expense Selling, general and ‎ administrative expenses $ 3,951 $ 4,136 Amortization of build-to-suit ‎ leases capital contribution Selling, general and ‎ administrative expenses 328 324 Variable lease expense Selling, general and ‎ administrative expenses 2,059 1,761 Total lease expense $ 7,671 $ 7,316 ‎ 12 Table of Contents DULUTH HOLDINGS INC.

The TRI Senior Secured Note is scheduled to mature on October 15, 2038 and requires installment payments with an interest rate of 4.95 %. See Note 6 “Variable Interest Entities” for further information. TRI entered into a promissory note (“TRI Note”) with an original balance of $ 3.5 million. The TRI Note is scheduled to mature in November 2038 and requires annual interest payments at a rate of 3.05 %, with a final balloon payment due in November 2038 . While the above notes are consolidated in accordance with ASC Topic 810, Consolidation , the Company is not the guarantor nor obligor of these notes. Credit Agreement On May 17, 2018, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) which provided for borrowing availability of up to $ 80.0 million in revolving credit (the “Revolver”), and borrowing availability of up to $ 50.0 million in a delayed draw term loan (“DDTL”), for a total credit facility of $ 130.0 million. The $ 80.0 million revolving credit facility was scheduled to mature on May 17, 2023 . The $ 50.0 million DDTL was available to draw upon in differing amounts through May 17, 2020 and was scheduled to mature on May 17, 2023 . Outstanding balances under the DDTL required quarterly principal payments with a final balloon payment at maturity. The Credit Agreement was secured by essentially all Company assets and required the Company to maintain compliance with certain financial and non-financial covenants, including a maximum rent adjusted leverage ratio and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio as defined in the Credit Agreement. On April 30, 2020, the Credit Agreement was amended to include an incremental DDTL of $ 20.5 million (the “Incremental DDTL”) that was available to draw upon before March 31, 2021, and matured on April 29, 2021 , for a total credit facility of $ 150.5 million. As of and for the three months ended May 2, 2021, no amount of the Incremental DDTL was funded. The loan covenants were also amended to allow for greater flexibility during the Company’s peak borrowing periods in fiscal 2020. The interest rate applicable to the Revolver or DDTL was a fixed rate for a one-, two-, three- or six-month interest period equal to LIBOR (with a 1 % floor) for such interest period plus a margin of 225 to 300 basis points, based upon the Company’s rent adjusted leverage ratio (effective rate of 3.5 % for the Revolver and the DDTL at May 2, 2021). The interest rate applicable to the Incremental DDTL was also a fixed rate over the aforementioned interest periods equal to LIBOR (with a 1 % floor) for such interest period plus a margin of 275 to 350 basis points. As of May 2, 2021 and for the three months then ended, the Company was in compliance with all financial and non-financial covenants for all debts discussed above. Subsequent to the May 2, 2021 quarter end, the Company refinanced the above credit agreement. See Note 13 “Subsequent Events” for further information. 14 Table of Contents DULUTH HOLDINGS INC.

ACCRUED EXPENSES AND OTHER CURRENT LIABILITIES Accrued expenses and other current liabilities consist of the following: May 2, 2021 January 31, 2021 (in thousands) Salaries and benefits $ 8,261 $ 8,826 Deferred revenue 8,588 9,944 Freight 4,031 6,769 Product returns 4,615 5,304 Catalog costs 692 396 Unpaid purchases of property & equipment 132 503 Accrued advertising 2,794 981 Other 1,790 4,963 Total accrued expenses and other current liabilities $ 30,903 $ 37,686 5. FAIR VALUE ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”) , defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e., an exit price). The exit price is based on the amount that the holder of the asset or liability would receive or need to pay in an actual transaction (or in a hypothetical transaction if an actual transaction does not exist) at the measurement date. ASC 820 describes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, as follows: Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 – Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. The fair value of the Company’s available-for-sale security was valued based on a discounted cash flow method (Level 3), which incorporates the U.S. Treasury yield curve, credit information and an estimate of future cash flows. During the three months ended May 2, 2021, certain changes in the inputs did impact the fair value of the available-for-sale security. The calculated fair value is based on estimates that are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgement and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates. ‎ 15 Table of Contents DULUTH HOLDINGS INC. Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) The amortized cost and fair value of the Company’s available-for-sale security and the corresponding amount of gross unrealized gains and losses recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income are as follows: May 2, 2021 Cost or Gross Gross Amortized Unrealized Unrealized Estimated Cost Gains Losses Fair Value (in thousands) Level 3 security: Corporate trust $ 6,012 $ 334 $ — $ 6,346 January 31, 2021 Cost or Gross Gross Amortized Unrealized Unrealized Estimated Cost Gains Losses Fair Value (in thousands) Level 3 security: Corporate trust $ 6,047 $ 64 $ — $ 6,111 The Company does not intend to sell the available-for-sale-security in the near term and does not believe that it will be required to sell the security. The Company reviews its securities on a quarterly basis to monitor its exposure to other-than-temporary impairment. No other-than-temporary impairment was recorded in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended May 2, 2021 or May 3, 2020. The following table presents future principal receipts related to the Company’s available-for-sale security by contractual maturity as of May 2, 2021. Amortized Estimated Cost Fair Value (in thousands) Within one year $ 151 $ 170 After one year through five years 1,028 1,124 After five years through ten years 1,596 1,691 After ten years 3,237 3,361 Total $ 6,012 $ 6,346 The carrying values and fair values of other financial instruments in the Consolidated Balance Sheets are as follows: May 2, 2021 January 31, 2021 Carrying Amount Fair Value Carrying Amount Fair Value (in thousands) TRI Long-term debt, including short-term portion $ 27,719 $ 29,787 $ 27,852 $ 28,697 The above long-term debt, including short-term portion is attributable to the consolidation of TRI in accordance with ASC Topic 810, Consolidation . The fair value was also based on a discounted cash flow method (Level 3) based on credit information and an estimate of future cash flows. As of May 2, 2021 and January 31, 2021, the carrying value of the delayed draw term loan and line of credit both approximated their fair value. 16 Table of Contents DULUTH HOLDINGS INC.

VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITY Based upon the criteria set forth in ASC 810, Consolidation , the Company consolidates variable interest entities (“VIEs”) in which it has a controlling financial interest and is therefore deemed the primary beneficiary. A controlling financial interest will have both of the following characteristics: (a) the power to direct the VIE activities that most significantly impact economic performance; and (b) the obligation to absorb the VIE losses and the right to receive benefits that are significant to the VIE. The Company has determined that it was the primary beneficiary of one variable interest entity (“VIE”) as of May 2, 2021 and January 31, 2021. The Company leases the Company’s headquarters in Mt. Horeb, Wisconsin from TRI. In conjunction with the lease, the Company invested $ 6.3 million in a trust that loaned funds to TRI for the construction of the Company’s headquarters. TRI is a Wisconsin limited liability company whose primary purpose and activity is to own this real property. The Company considers itself the primary beneficiary for TRI as the Company has both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and is expected to receive benefits that are significant to TRI. As the Company is the primary beneficiary, it consolidates TRI and the lease is eliminated in consolidation. The Company does not consolidate the trust as the Company is not the primary beneficiary. The condensed consolidated balance sheets include the following amounts as a result of the consolidation of TRI as of May 2, 2021 and January 31, 2021: May 2, 2021 January 31, 2021 (in thousands) Cash $ 747 $ 747 Property and equipment, net 24,644 24,800 Total assets $ 25,391 $ 25,547 Other current liabilities $ 81 $ 58 Current maturities of long-term debt 640 623 TRI Long-term debt 27,079 27,229 Noncontrolling interest in VIE ( 2,409 ) ( 2,363 ) Total liabilities and shareholders' equity $ 25,391 $ 25,547 7. EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE Earnings (loss) per share is computed under the provisions of ASC 260 , Earnings Per Share . Basic earnings (loss) per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares plus the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method. Dilutive potential common shares include outstanding restricted stock and are considered only for dilutive earnings (loss) per share unless considered anti-dilutive. The reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share calculation is as follows: Three Months Ended May 2, 2021 May 3, 2020 (in thousands, except per share data) Numerator - net income (loss) attributable to ‎ controlling interest $ 544 $ ( 15,135 ) Denominator - weighted average shares ‎ (Class A and Class B) Basic 32,540 32,372 Dilutive shares 180 — Diluted 32,720 32,372 Earnings (loss) per share (Class A and Class B) Basic $ 0.02 $ ( 0.47 ) Diluted $ 0.02 $ ( 0.47 ) 17 Table of Contents DULUTH HOLDINGS INC. Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) The Computation of diluted loss per share for the three months ended May 3, 2020 excluded 0.1 million shares of unvested restricted stock respectively, because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive due to a net loss. 8. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation plan in accordance with ASC 718, Stock Compensation , which requires the Company to measure all share-based payments at grant date fair value and recognize the cost over the requisite service period of the award. Total stock compensation expense associated with restricted stock recognized by the Company was $ 0.4 million for the three months ended May 2, 2021 and May 3, 2020. The Company’s total stock compensation expense (benefit) is included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. A summary of the activity in the Company’s unvested restricted stock during the three months ended May 2, 2021 is as follows: Weighted average fair value Shares per share Outstanding at January 31, 2021 338,239 $ 9.74 Granted 90,914 15.45 Vested ( 68,502 ) 11.70 Forfeited ( 595 ) 17.95 Outstanding at May 2, 2021 360,056 $ 10.79 At May 2, 2021, the Company had unrecognized compensation expense of $ 3.2 million related to the restricted stock awards, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.9 years. 9.

The Company’s contract liabilities primarily consist of gift card liabilities and are recorded in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities under deferred revenue (see Note 4 “Accrued Expenses and Other Current Liabilities”) on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Upon issuance of a gift card, a liability is established for its cash value. The gift card liability is relieved and revenues on gift cards are recorded at the time of redemption by the customer. Contract assets and liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets are presented in the following table: May 2, 2021 January 31, 2021 (in thousands) Contract assets $ 2,072 $ 2,490 Contract liabilities $ 8,432 $ 9,788 Revenue from gift cards is recognized when the gift card is redeemed by the customer for merchandise, or as a gift card breakage, an estimate of gift cards which will not be redeemed. The Company does not record breakage revenue when escheat liability to the relevant jurisdictions exists. Gift card breakage is recorded within Net sales on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations. The following table provides the reconciliation of the contract liability related to gift cards for the nine months ended: May 2, 2021 May 3, 2020 (in thousands) Balance as of beginning of period $ 9,788 $ 9,790 Gift cards sold 1,739 1,545 Gift cards redeemed ( 2,990 ) ( 2,606 ) Gift card breakage ( 105 ) ( 996 ) Balance as of end of period $ 8,432 $ 7,733 11. INCOME TAXES The provision for income taxes for the interim period is based on an estimate of the annual effective tax rate adjusted to reflect the impact of discrete items. Management judgment is required in projecting ordinary income to estimate the Company’s annual effective tax rate. The effective tax rate related to controlling interest was 16 % for the three months ended May 2, 2021, which was impacted by changes to certain discrete items during the quarter. Excluding these non-recurring discrete items, the effective tax rate related to controlling interest was 25 % for both the three months ended May 2, 2021 and May 3, 2020. The income from TRI was excluded from the calculation of the Company’s effective tax rate, as TRI is a limited liability company and not subject to income taxes. 19 Table of Contents DULUTH HOLDINGS INC.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13 “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” (“ASU 2016-13”), which amends the impairment model by requiring entities to use a forward-looking approach based on expected losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments, which include trade and other receivables, loans and held-to-maturity debt securities, to record an allowance for credit risk based on expected losses rather than incurred losses, otherwise known as “CECL”. In addition, this guidance changes the recognition for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities, which can occur as a result of market and credit risk and requires additional disclosures. On November 15, 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10 “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815, and Leases (Topic 842),” (ASU 2019-10”), which provides framework to stagger effective dates for future major accounting standards and amends the effective dates for certain major new accounting standards to give implementation relief to certain types of entities. ASU 2019-10 amends the effective dates for ASU 2016-13 for smaller reporting companies with fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within those years. The Company expects to adopt ASU 2016-13 on January 30, 2023, the first day of the Company’s first quarter for the fiscal year ending January 28, 2024, the Company’s fiscal year 2023. The Company is evaluating the level of impact adopting ASU 2016-13 will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. 13. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS On May 14, 2021, the Company terminated the aforementioned Credit Agreement, dated as of May 17, 2018, as amended, and entered into a new credit agreement (the “New Credit Agreement”). The New Credit Agreement matures on May 14, 2026 and provides for borrowings of up to $ 150.0 million that are available under a revolving senior credit facility, with a $ 5.0 million sublimit for issuance of standby letters of credit, as well as a $ 10.0 million sublimit for swing line loans. At the Company’s option, the interest rate applicable to the Revolver will be a floating rate equal to: (i) the Bloomberg Short-Term Bank Yield Index rate (“BSBY”) plus the applicable rate of 1.25 % to 2.00 % determined based on the Company’s rent adjusted leverage ratio, or (ii) the base rate plus the applicable rate of 0.25 % to 1.00 % based on the Company’s rent adjusted leverage ratio. The New Credit Agreement is secured by essentially all Company assets and requires the Company to maintain compliance with certain financial and non-financial covenants, including a maximum rent adjusted leverage ratio and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio as defined in the New Credit Agreement. 20 Table of Contents
