LA-Z-BOY INCORPORATED
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
Note 1: Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the consolidated accounts of La-Z-Boy Incorporated and our majority-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company"). We derived the April 26, 2025 balance sheet from our audited financial statements. We prepared the interim financial information in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles ("US GAAP"), which we applied on a basis consistent with those reflected in our fiscal 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), but the information does not include all of the disclosures required by US GAAP. In management’s opinion, the interim financial information includes all adjustments and accruals, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments (except as otherwise disclosed), that are necessary for a fair statement of results for the respective interim periods. The interim results reflected in the accompanying financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that will occur for the full fiscal year ending April 25, 2026.
Accounting Pronouncements Adopted in Fiscal 2026
The following table summarizes Accounting Standards Updates ("ASUs"), which were adopted in fiscal 2026, but did not have a material impact on our accounting policies or our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

The following table summarizes additional accounting pronouncements which we have not yet adopted, but we believe will not have a material impact on our accounting policies or our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Note 2: Acquisitions
We did not complete any acquisitions during the first quarter of fiscal 2026.
Prior Year Acquisitions
The Retail acquisition completed in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 reflects a core component of our strategic priorities, which is to grow our company-owned retail business and leverage our integrated retail model (where we earn a combined profit on both the wholesale and retail sales) in suitable geographic markets, alongside the existing La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries ® network.
Prior to the Retail acquisition, we licensed to the counterparty the exclusive right to own and operate the La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries ® store (and to use the associated trademarks and trade name) in its market, and we reacquired these rights when we consummated the transaction. These required rights are indefinite-lived because our retailer agreements are perpetual agreements that have no specific expiration date and no renewal options. The effective settlement date of this arrangement resulted in no settlement gain or loss as the contractual terms were at market. For federal income tax purposes, we amortize and deduct the indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill over 15 years.
The acquisition below was not significant to our consolidated financial statements, and, therefore, pro-forma financial information is not presented.

Davenport, Iowa Acquisition
On July 22, 2024, we completed our acquisition of the Davenport, Iowa business that operates one independently owned La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries ® store for $ 7.4 million, inclusive of customary adjustments. We paid total cash of $ 6.9 million during the first and second quarters of fiscal 2025 and the remaining consideration included forgiveness of accounts receivable and payments based on working capital adjustments. As part of the acquisition, we recorded an indefinite-lived intangible asset of $ 1.7 million related to the reacquired rights described above. We also recognized $ 5.1 million of goodwill in our Retail segment related primarily to synergies we expect from the integration of the acquired store and future benefits of these synergies.

As of July 26, 2025, we held $ 6.4 million of fixed income marketable securities, classified as available-for-sale securities, all of which do not have a single contractual maturity date.
Note 6: Debt
On October 15, 2021, we entered into a credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, the other agents and lenders named therein and the other parties thereto (as amended prior to July 1, 2025, the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement provides for an unsecured revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $ 200 million, which includes a $ 50 million letter of credit sub-limit (the “Credit Facility”).
On July 1, 2025, we entered into an amendment to the Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement Amendment”). The Credit Agreement Amendment, among other things, (i) extended the maturity date of the Credit Facility from October 15, 2026 to July 1, 2030, (ii) increased the accordion basket for additional revolving commitments and/or incremental term loans from $ 100 million to $ 125 million, (iii) removed the secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) credit spread adjustment, and (iv) decreased the consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio required to be satisfied under the Company’s financial covenant.
Borrowings under the Credit Facility may be used by the Company for general corporate purposes. The Credit Facility will mature on July 1, 2030, and provides us the ability to extend the maturity date for two additional one-year periods, subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions.
The Credit Facility contains certain restrictive loan covenants, including, among others, financial covenants requiring a maximum consolidated net lease adjusted leverage ratio and a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio, as well as customary covenants limiting our ability to incur indebtedness, grant liens, make acquisitions, merge or consolidate, and dispose of certain assets.
As of July 26, 2025, we have no borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility and we were in compliance with our financial covenants under the Credit Facility.
Note 7: Product Warranties
We accrue an estimated liability for product warranties when we recognize revenue on the sale of warrantied products. We estimate future warranty claims on product sales based on sales volume and our historical claims experience and periodically adjust the provision to reflect changes in actual experience. We incorporate repair costs into our liability estimates, including materials, labor and overhead amounts necessary to perform repairs, and any costs associated with delivering repaired product to our customers. Over 90 % of our warranty liability relates to our Wholesale reportable segment, as we generally warrant our products against defects for one to three years on fabric and leather, from one to five years on cushions and padding, and provide a limited lifetime warranty on certain mechanisms and frames, unless otherwise noted in the warranty. Additionally, our Wholesale segment warranties cover labor costs relating to our parts for one year . We provide a limited lifetime warranty against defects on a majority of the Joybird products, which are a part of our Corporate and Other results. For all our manufacturer warranties, the warranty period begins when the consumer receives our product. We use considerable judgment in making our estimates, and we record differences between our actual and estimated costs when the differences are known.

A reconciliation of the changes in our product warranty liability is as follows:

We recorded accruals during the periods presented in the table above, primarily to reflect charges that relate to warranties issued during the respective periods.
Note 8: Stock-Based Compensation
The table below summarizes the total stock-based compensation expense we recognized for all outstanding grants in our consolidated statement of income:
Quarter Ended
(Unaudited, amounts in thousands) 7/26/2025 7/27/2024
Equity-based awards expense $ 3,420 $ 3,175
Liability-based awards expense (1)
( 14 ) 161
Total stock-based compensation expense $ 3,406 $ 3,336
(1) Includes stock appreciation rights, deferred stock units issued to Directors, restricted stock units, and performance-based units. Compensation expense for these awards is based on the market price of our common stock on the grant date and is remeasured each reporting period based on the market value of our common shares on the last day of the reported period.
Restricted Stock . During the first quarter of fiscal 2026, we granted 263,509 shares of restricted stock units to employees and we also have restricted stock awards outstanding from previous grants. We issue restricted stock at no cost to the employees and account for restricted stock awards as equity-based awards because when they vest, they will be settled in common shares. We recognize compensation expense for restricted stock over the vesting period equal to the fair value on the date our Compensation and Talent Oversight Committee of our board of directors approved the awards. Restricted stock awards vest at 25 % per year, beginning one year from the grant date for a term of four years , with continued vesting upon retirement. We accelerate the expense for restricted stock granted to retirement-eligible employees over the vesting period, with expense recognized from the grant date through their retirement eligibility date or over the ten months following the grant date, whichever period is longer. We have elected to recognize forfeitures as an adjustment to compensation expense in the same period as the forfeitures occur. The weighted average fair value of the restricted stock that was awarded in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 was $ 38.24 per share, the market value of our common shares on the date of grant.
Performance Shares. During the first quarter of fiscal 2026, we granted 182,671 performance-based shares, and we also have performance-based share awards outstanding from previous grants. Payouts of these grants depend on our financial performance ( 50 %) and a market-based condition based on the total return our shareholders receive on their investment in our stock relative to returns earned through investments in other public companies ( 50 %). The performance share opportunity ranges from 50 % of the employee’s target award if minimum performance requirements are met to a maximum of 200 % of the target award based on the attainment of certain financial and shareholder-return goals over a specific performance period, which is generally three fiscal years.
We account for performance-based shares as equity-based awards because when they vest, they will be settled in common shares. In the event of an employee's termination during the vesting period, the potential right to earn shares under this program is generally forfeited and we have elected to recognize forfeitures as an adjustment to compensation expense in the same period in which the forfeitures occur. For shares that vest based on our results relative to the performance goals, we expense as compensation cost the fair value of the shares as of the day we granted the awards recognized over the performance period, taking into account the probability that we will satisfy the performance goals. The fair value of each share of the awards we granted in fiscal 2026 that vest based on attaining performance goals was $ 35.62 , the market value of our common shares on the date we granted the awards less the dividends we expect to pay before the shares vest. For shares that vest based on market conditions, we use a Monte Carlo valuation model to estimate each share’s fair value as of the date of grant. The Monte Carlo valuation model uses multiple simulations to evaluate our probability of achieving various stock price levels to determine our
12
Table of Contents
expected performance ranking relative to our peer group. For shares that vest based on market conditions, we expense compensation cost over the vesting period regardless of whether the market condition is ultimately satisfied. Based on the Monte Carlo valuation model, the fair value as of the grant date of the fiscal 2026 grant of shares that vest based on market conditions was $ 52.91 .
Stock Options. We did not grant stock options to employees during the first quarter of fiscal 2026, but we have stock options outstanding from grants from prior years. We account for stock options as equity-based awards because when they are exercised, they will be settled in common shares. We recognize compensation expense for stock options over the vesting period equal to the fair value on the date our Compensation and Talent Oversight Committee of our board of directors approved the awards. The vesting period for our stock options ranges from one to four years , with accelerated vesting upon retirement. The vesting date for retirement-eligible employees is the later of the date they meet the criteria for retirement or ten months after the grant date. We accelerate the expense for options granted to retirement eligible employees over the vesting period, with expense recognized from the grant date through their retirement eligibility date or over the ten months following the grant date, whichever period is longer. We have elected to recognize forfeitures as an adjustment to compensation expense in the same period as the forfeitures occur. Granted options outstanding under the former long-term equity award plan remain in effect and have a term of 10 years. We estimated the fair value of the employee stock options granted in prior years at their respective grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which requires management to make certain assumptions.

Note 10: Revenue Recognition
Our revenue is primarily derived from product sales. We report product sales net of discounts and recognize them when control (rights and obligations associated with the product) passes to the customer. For sales to furniture retailers or distributors, control typically transfers when we ship the product. In cases where we sell directly to the end consumer, control of the product is generally transferred upon delivery.
For shipping and handling activities, we have elected to apply the accounting policy election permitted in ASC 606-10-25-18B, which allows an entity to account for shipping and handling activities as fulfillment activities (rather than as a promised good or service) when the activities are performed even if those activities are performed after the control of the good has been transferred. We expense shipping and handling costs at the time we recognize revenue in accordance with this election.
For sales tax, we have elected to apply the accounting policy election permitted in ASC 606-10-32-2A, which allows an entity to exclude from the measurement of the transaction price all taxes imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction and collected by the entity from a customer, including sales, use, excise, value-added, and franchise taxes (collectively referred to as sales taxes). This allows us to present revenue net of these certain types of taxes.
We have elected the practical expedient permitted in ASC 606-10-32-18, which allows an entity to recognize the promised amount of consideration without adjusting for the effects of a significant financing component if the contract has a duration of one year or less. As our contracts typically are less than one year in length and do not have significant financing components, we have not adjusted consideration.
The following table presents our revenue disaggregated by product category and by segment or unit:

Upholstered Furniture - Includes revenue for upholstered furniture, such as recliners, sofas, loveseats, chairs, sectionals, modulars, and ottomans. This revenue includes sales to La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries ® stores (including company-owned stores), operators of La-Z-Boy Comfort Studio ® and branded space locations, England Custom Comfort Center locations, other major dealers, independent retailers, and the end consumer.
Casegoods Furniture - Includes revenue for casegoods furniture typically found in a bedroom, such as beds, chests, dressers, nightstands and benches; furniture typically found in the dining room, such as dining tables, storage units, and stools; and furniture typically found throughout the home, such as cocktail tables, chairsides, sofa tables, end tables, and entertainment centers. This revenue includes sales to La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries ® stores (including company-owned stores), independent retailers, and the end consumer.
Contract Assets and Liabilities. We receive customer deposits from end consumers before we recognize revenue and in some cases, we have the unconditional right to collect the remaining portion of the order price before we fulfill our performance obligation, resulting in a contract asset and a corresponding deferred revenue liability. In our consolidated balance sheet, customer deposits and deferred revenue (collectively, the "contract liabilities") are reported in accrued expenses and other current liabilities while contract assets are reported as other current assets.

Note 11: Segment Information
We report segment information consistent with the way our chief operating decision maker, (the "CODM"), our Board Chair, President and Chief Executive Officer, evaluates the operating results and performance of the Company. Our reportable operating segments include the Wholesale segment and the Retail segment.
Wholesale Segment . Our Wholesale segment consists primarily of four operating segments: La-Z-Boy, our largest operating segment, our England subsidiary, our casegoods operating segment that sells furniture under three brands (American Drew ® , Hammary ® , and Kincaid ® ), and our international operating segment, which includes our international La-Z-Boy wholesale and manufacturing businesses. We aggregate these operating segments into one reportable segment because they are economically similar and meet the other aggregation criteria for determining reportable segments. Our Wholesale segment manufactures and imports upholstered furniture, such as recliners and motion furniture, sofas, loveseats, chairs, sectionals, modulars, ottomans and sleeper sofas and imports casegoods (wood) furniture such as bedroom sets, dining room sets, entertainment centers and occasional pieces. The Wholesale segment sells directly to La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries ® stores, operators of La-Z-Boy Comfort Studio ® and branded space locations, England Custom Comfort Center locations, major dealers, and a wide cross-section of other independent retailers.
Retail Segment . Our Retail segment consists of one operating segment comprised of our 205 company-owned La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries ® stores. The Retail segment sells primarily upholstered furniture, in addition to some casegoods and other home furnishings accessories, to end consumers through these stores.
Corporate and Other . Corporate and Other includes the shared costs for corporate functions, including human resources, information technology, finance and accounting, and legal, in addition to revenue generated through royalty agreements with companies licensed to use the La-Z-Boy ® brand name on various products. We consider our corporate functions to be other business activities and have aggregated them with our other insignificant operating segments, including our global trading company in Hong Kong and Joybird, an omni-channel retailer that manufactures upholstered furniture, such as sofas, loveseats, chairs, ottomans, sleeper sofas and beds, and also imports casegoods (wood) furniture, such as occasional tables and other accessories. Joybird sells to the end consumer online through its website, www.joybird.com, and through small-format stores in key markets. None of the operating segments included in Corporate and Other meet the requirements of reportable segments.
We use operating income to evaluate segment performance and to allocate resources. Segment operating income is based on profit or loss from operations before interest expense, interest income, other income (expense), net and income taxes. The CODM assesses performance by regularly reviewing each segment's significant expense categories which include cost of sales, selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses, and goodwill impairment, if applicable.
The accounting policies of the operating segments are the same as those described in our Annual Report on form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 26, 2025. We account for intersegment revenue transactions between our segments consistent with independent third-party transactions, that is, at current market prices. As a result, the manufacturing profit related to sales to our Retail segment is included within the Wholesale segment. Operating income realized on intersegment revenue transactions is therefore generally consistent with the operating income realized on our revenue from independent third-party transactions.
Identifiable assets are cash and equivalents, accounts receivable, net inventories, net property, plant and equipment, right-of-use lease assets, goodwill and other intangible assets. Our unallocated assets include deferred income taxes, corporate assets (including a portion of cash and equivalents), and various other assets. Asset information is regularly reviewed by the CODM at the consolidated level and segment-level asset information is not used for purposes of making decisions, assessing financial performance, or allocating resources.

Note 12: Income Taxes
Our effective tax rate was 25.0 % for the quarter ended July 26, 2025 compared with 25.5 % for the quarter ended July 27, 2024. Our effective tax rate varies from the 21 % federal statutory rate primarily due to state taxes.
On July 4, 2025, the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" ("OBBBA"), was signed into law, making several provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act permanent. Under ASC 740, Income Taxes, the effects of changes in tax laws must be recognized in the period of enactment. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of OBBBA, but based on a preliminary assessment, the provisions of the new law are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Note 13: Earnings per Share
The following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators we used in our computations of basic and diluted earnings per share:
Quarter Ended
(Unaudited, amounts in thousands, except per share data) 7/26/2025 7/27/2024
Numerator (basic and diluted):
Net income available to common Shareholders $ 18,204 $ 26,159
Denominator:
Basic weighted average common shares outstanding 41,027 42,052
Contingent common shares 246 351
Stock option dilution 152 161
Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding 41,425 42,564
Earnings per Share:
Basic $ 0.44 $ 0.62
Diluted (1)
$ 0.44 $ 0.61
(1) Diluted earnings per share was computed using the treasury stock method.
The values for contingent common shares set forth above reflect the dilutive effect of common shares that we would have issued to employees under the terms of performance-based share awards if the relevant performance period for the award had been the reporting period.
We exclude the effect of options from our diluted share calculation when the weighted average exercise price of the options is higher than the average market price, since including the options' effect would be anti-dilutive. For the quarter ended July 26, 2025, we did not exclude any outstanding options from the diluted share calculation. For the quarter ended July 27, 2024, we excluded options to purchase 0.2 million shares from the diluted share calculation.
Note 14: Fair Value Measurements
Accounting standards require that we put financial assets and liabilities into one of three categories based on the inputs we use to value them:
• Level 1 — Financial assets and liabilities, the values of which are based on unadjusted quoted market prices for identical assets and liabilities in an active market that we have the ability to access.
• Level 2 — Financial assets and liabilities, the values of which are based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or on model inputs that are observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
• Level 3 — Financial assets and liabilities, the values of which are based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.
Accounting standards require that in making fair value measurements, we use observable market data when available. When inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, we categorize the fair value measurement as being in the lowest level that is significant to the measurement. We recognize transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period in which they occur.
In addition to assets and liabilities that we record at fair value on a recurring basis, we are required to record assets and liabilities at fair value on a non-recurring basis. We measure non-financial assets such as other intangible assets, goodwill, and other long-lived assets at fair value when there is an indicator of impairment, and we record them at fair value only when we recognize an impairment loss.
The following table presents the fair value hierarchy for those assets and liabilities we measured at fair value on a recurring basis at July 26, 2025 and April 26, 2025. There were no transfers into or out of Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 for any of the periods presented.

(1) Certain marketable securities investments are measured at fair value using net asset value per share under the practical expedient methodology.
At July 26, 2025 and April 26, 2025, we held marketable securities to fund future obligations of certain retirement plans.
The fair value measurements for our Level 1 and Level 2 securities are based on quoted prices in active markets, as well as through broker quotes and independent valuation providers, multiplied by the number of shares owned exclusive of any transaction costs.
