Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation | Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation We prepare our unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and, therefore, do not include all information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 28, 2024 has been derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet for the fiscal year then ended. These condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the Company’s consolidated results of the interim period. Certain information and disclosures normally included in our annual consolidated financial statements have been condensed or omitted; however, we believe that the disclosures included herein are sufficient for a fair presentation of the information presented. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2024 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 26, 2025 (the “2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K.”) The Company’s significant accounting policies are set forth in Note 1. within those consolidated financial statements. We use the same accounting policies in preparing interim condensed consolidated financial information and annual consolidated financial statements. There were no changes to our significant accounting policies during the six months ended June 28, 2025. The condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Refer to Part II. Item 8. Note 2. “Discontinued Operations” of the 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K for more information on discontinued operations. The Company has consolidated certain entities meeting the definition of a variable interest entity (“VIE”) as the Company concluded that it is the primary beneficiary of the entities under the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification 810, Consolidation.

Fiscal Year | Fiscal Year Our fiscal year consists of 52 or 53 weeks ending on the Saturday closest to December 31. Fiscal year 2025 contains 53 weeks and will end on January 3, 2026. All three and six month periods presented herein contain 13 and 26 weeks, respectively. All references to years and quarters relate to fiscal periods rather than calendar periods.
|
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
|
Lease income | Lease income Rental income primarily from sub-leasing store space to independent optometrists, which is presented in selling, general and administrative “SG&A” expenses in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, was $0.3 million and $0.7 million for the three and six months ended June 28, 2025 compared to $0.3 million and $0.7 million for the three and six months ended and June 29, 2024.
|
Stock-Based Compensation | Stock-Based Compensation During the six months ended June 28, 2025, we granted performance stock units to certain employees. The number of shares issued at the end of the three-year performance period will be determined by the level of achievement of predefined performance goals, including adjusted operating income, return on invested capital and relative total shareholder return versus a peer group. We recognize compensation expense on performance stock units ratably over the requisite performance period of the award to the extent management views the performance goals as probable of attainment. We recognize compensation expense for the fair value of the relative total shareholder return versus the peer group component over the requisite service period of such awards using a Monte Carlo simulation.
|
Asset Impairment | Asset Impairment Non-cash impairment charges of $0.5 million were recorded for the six months ended June 28, 2025 related to our tangible long-lived store assets and Right of Use (“ROU”) assets, compared to $3.5 million and $4.0 million related to tangible long-lived store assets and ROU assets for the three and six months ended June 29, 2024. The impairments were recognized in Corporate and other, and are reflected in Asset impairment in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.
|
Income Taxes | Income Taxes For the first and second quarters of 2025, the Company’s quarterly provision (benefit) for income taxes was calculated using the annualized effective tax rate (“AETR”) method, which applies an estimated annual effective tax rate to pre-tax income or loss. For the three and six months ended June 29, 2024, the Company calculated the provision (benefit) for income taxes using a discrete effective tax rate (“ETR”) method. The Company determined that due to the fact that small changes in the Company’s estimated pretax income or loss would result in significant changes in the estimated AETR, the AETR method would not provide a reliable estimate for the three and six months ended June 29, 2024. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended June 28, 2025 was 28.7%, reflecting our statutory federal and state rate of 25.2% and other effects of other permanent items. Our effective tax rate for the six months ended June 28, 2025 was 32.2%, reflecting our statutory federal and state rate of 25.2%, discrete effects of permanent adjustments related to equity compensation and other effects of permanent items. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended June 29, 2024 was 60.0%, reflecting our statutory federal and state rate of 25.2%, tax impacts of consolidated VIEs and effects of other permanent items. Our effective tax rate for the six months ended June 29, 2024 was 35.4%, reflecting our statutory federal and state rate of 25.2%, non-deductible compensation expense, tax impacts of consolidated VIEs and other permanent items. Subsequent to the date of the financial statements, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted on July 4, 2025. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of this legislation on its financial position. The OBBBA is not currently expected to materially impact the Company’s effective tax rate in the current fiscal year.

Investments | Investments In the second quarter of fiscal year 2023, we completed an investment in the equity of an entity specializing in applying artificial intelligence-powered screening and diagnostic tools to retinal imaging. As of June 28, 2025, we have invested a total of $3.3 million in the equity of the entity. The investment is valued at cost. In addition, we completed an investment in a convertible promissory note issued by this entity. Refer to Note 5. “Fair Value Measurement” for more information on the promissory note. These investments are recognized in Other assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and in Other in the investing section of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
|
Discontinued Operations | Discontinued Operations In accordance with ASC 205-20 “Presentation of Financial Statements: Discontinued Operations,” a disposal of a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity is required to be reported as discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results. In the period in which the component meets held-for-sale or discontinued operations criteria, the major current assets, non-current assets, current liabilities, and non-current liabilities shall be reported as components of total assets and liabilities separate from those balances of the continuing operations. Our operations related to Walmart, including our former Legacy reportable segment, as well as the majority of our AC Lens operations, are classified as discontinued operations. Accordingly, we classified the results of these operations as discontinued operations in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for all periods presented. The results of all discontinued operations, less applicable income taxes, are reported as components of net income separate from the net income of continuing operations for the periods presented. Additionally, the cash flows and other comprehensive income of discontinued operations have not been segregated and are included in the interim Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income, respectively, for all periods presented.

Future Adoption of Accounting Pronouncements | Future Adoption of Accounting Pronouncements Income taxes. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 is intended to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 address investor requests for enhanced income tax information primarily through changes to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the guidance on the consolidated financial statements and disclosures. Expense Disaggregation Disclosures. In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220-40): Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (“ASU 2024-03”). This update requires, among other things, more detailed disclosure about types of expenses in commonly presented expense captions such as cost of sales and SG&A, and is intended to improve the disclosures about an entity’s expenses including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation and amortization. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the guidance on the consolidated financial statements and disclosures. Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt Instruments. In November 2024, FASB issued ASU 2024-04, Debt-Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20): Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt Instruments, which clarifies the requirements for determining whether certain settlements of convertible debt instruments should be accounted for as an induced conversion or extinguishment of convertible debt. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim periods within those annual reporting periods, with early and retrospective adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the guidance on the consolidated financial statements and disclosures. Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets. In July 2025, FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets. This update provides a practical expedient which allows an entity to assume that, for purposes of estimating expected credit losses related to an asset, current conditions as of a balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the asset. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the guidance on the consolidated financial statements and disclosures. The FASB issued other accounting guidance during the period that is not currently applicable or expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements, and therefore, is not described above.
