ABL Credit Facility
The Company and certain subsidiaries maintain the $350.0 million asset-based revolving credit facility (the “ABL Credit Facility”) under its Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated May 9, 2019 (as amended from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells Fargo”), as the sole lender party thereto, and as Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, and Swing Line Lender. The ABL Credit Facility will mature on the earlier of December 16, 2030, or the maturity date under the Company’s term loan agreement with SLR Credit Solutions (“SLR”) as further described below.
As of December 16, 2025, which is the effective date of the eighth amendment to the Credit Agreement (the “Eighth Amendment”), the ABL Credit Facility includes a $25.0 million Canadian sublimit and a $30.0 million sublimit for standby and documentary letters of credit.
As of February 1, 2026, and on the first day of each fiscal quarter thereafter, based on the amount of the Company’s average daily excess availability under the facility, borrowings outstanding under the ABL Credit Facility bear interest, at the Company’s option at:
(i)the prime rate per annum, plus a margin of 1.000%, 1.250% or 1.500%; or
(ii)the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) per annum, plus a margin of 2.000%, 2.250% or 2.500%.
As of April 18, 2024, based on the size of the unused portion of the commitments, the Company is charged a fee ranging from 0.250% to 0.375%.
As of February 1, 2026, letter of credit fees range from 0.500% to 0.750% for commercial letters of credit and range from 1.000% to 1.500% for standby letters of credit. These fees are determined based on the amount of the Company’s average daily excess availability under the facility.
As of December 16, 2025, the amount available for loans and letters of credit under the ABL Credit Facility is determined by a borrowing base consisting of certain credit card receivables, certain trade receivables, and certain inventory, subject to certain reserves.
For the Second Quarter 2026 and Second Quarter 2025, the Company recognized $2.6 million and $5.4 million, respectively, in interest expense related to the ABL Credit Facility. During the Year-To-Date 2026 and the Year-To-Date 2025, the Company recognized $4.8 million and $10.2 million, respectively, in interest expense related to the ABL Credit Facility.
As of December 16, 2025, credit extended under the ABL Credit Facility is secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the Company’s U.S. and Canadian assets, other than intellectual property, real estate, certain furniture, fixtures and equipment, and pledges of subsidiary capital stock, and a second priority security interest in the Company’s intellectual property, real estate, certain furniture, fixtures and equipment, and pledges of subsidiary capital stock.
The outstanding obligations under the ABL Credit Facility may be accelerated upon the occurrence of certain customary events of default, as described below. The Company is not subject to any early termination fees.
The ABL Credit Facility contains covenants, which include conditions on stock buybacks and the payment of cash dividends or similar payments. These covenants also limit the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to incur certain liens, to incur certain indebtedness, to make certain investments, acquisitions, or dispositions or to change the nature of its business. Pursuant to a prior amendment, the requisite payment condition thresholds for some of these covenants were heightened, resulting in certain actions such as the repurchase of shares and payment of cash dividends becoming more difficult to perform. Additionally, if the Company is unable to maintain a certain amount of excess availability for borrowings, the Company may be subject to cash dominion, and pursuant to the Eighth Amendment, the Company is required to maintain excess availability of at least $35.0 million, subject to increase based on the Company’s borrowing base (the “excess availability requirement”). The Company was in compliance with this excess availability requirement as of August 1, 2026.
The ABL Credit Facility contains customary events of default, which include (subject in certain cases to customary grace and cure periods) nonpayment of principal or interest, breach of covenants, failure to pay certain other indebtedness, and certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization, such as a change of control.
As of August 1, 2026, January 31, 2026, and August 2, 2025, unamortized deferred financing costs amounted to $5.0 million, $5.6 million, and $2.7 million, related to the ABL Credit Facility.

SLR Term Loan
On December 16, 2025, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a term loan agreement (the “SLR Loan Agreement”) with SLR and other affiliated SLR entities as the lenders party thereto, and SLR as Administrative Agent, and Collateral Agent, providing for a $100.0 million term loan (the “SLR Term Loan”). The Company used the net proceeds from the SLR Term Loan to partially pay down its borrowings under the ABL Credit Facility.
The SLR Term Loan (i) matures on the earlier of December 16, 2030, or the maturity date under the ABL Credit Facility, (ii) bears interest, payable monthly, (a) until June 16, 2026, at the SOFR per annum plus 5.250% for any portion that is a SOFR loan, or at the base rate per annum plus 4.250% for any portion that is a base rate loan; or (b) from and after June 17, 2026, at the SOFR per annum plus 5.250% or 6.250% for any portion that is a SOFR loan, or at the base rate per annum plus 4.250% or 5.250% for any portion that is a base rate loan, based on the Company’s consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio for the trailing twelve-month period as of the most recent fiscal quarter just ended.
The SLR Term Loan is secured by a first priority security interest in the Company’s intellectual property, real estate, certain furniture, fixtures and equipment, and pledges of subsidiary capital stock, and a second priority security interest in the collateral secured by a first priority security interest under the ABL Credit Facility. The SLR Term Loan is guaranteed by each of the Company’s subsidiaries that guarantees the ABL Credit Facility.
The SLR Term Loan is, in whole or in part, pre-payable any time and from time to time, subject to certain prepayment premiums specified in the SLR Loan Agreement, plus accrued and unpaid interest.
The SLR Term Loan contains customary affirmative and negative covenants substantially similar to a subset of the covenants set forth in the Credit Agreement, including limits on the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to incur certain liens, to incur certain indebtedness, to make certain investments, acquisitions, dispositions or restricted payments, or to change the nature of its business.
The SLR Term Loan contains certain customary events of default, which include (subject in certain cases to customary grace periods), nonpayment of principal, breach of other covenants of the SLR Term Loan, inaccuracy in representations or warranties, acceleration of certain other indebtedness (including under the Credit Agreement), certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization, such as a change of control, and invalidity of any part of the SLR Term Loan. Additionally, the SLR Term Loan contains the same excess availability requirement as the ABL Credit Facility. The Company was in compliance with this excess availability requirement as of August 1, 2026.
For the Second Quarter 2026 and Year-To-Date 2026, the Company recognized $2.4 million and $4.6 million in interest expense related to the SLR Term Loan. As of August 1, 2026, the interest rate was 10.1%.
As of August 1, 2026 and January 31, 2026, unamortized deferred financing costs amounted to $2.3 million and $2.4 million, respectively, related to the SLR Term Loan.
Initial Mithaq Term Loans
Mithaq Capital SPC, a Cayman segregated portfolio company (“Mithaq”), is a controlling stockholder of the Company. The Company and certain subsidiaries maintain an interest-free, unsecured and subordinated promissory note with Mithaq (the “First Mithaq Term Loan”), dated February 29, 2024, by and among the Company, certain of its subsidiaries, and Mithaq. During Fiscal 2025, $60.2 million under the First Mithaq Term Loan was repaid pursuant to the completion of the Company’s rights offering on February 6, 2025 (“Rights Offering”), leaving $18.4 million outstanding under the First Mithaq Term Loan as of August 1, 2026.
The First Mithaq Term Loan matures on April 16, 2031 and is guaranteed by each of the Company’s subsidiaries that guarantees the ABL Credit Facility and the SLR Term Loan.
The Company and certain subsidiaries also maintain an unsecured and subordinated promissory note with Mithaq for a $90.0 million term loan (the “Second Mithaq Term Loan”; and together with the First Mithaq Term Loan, collectively, the “Initial Mithaq Term Loans”), dated April 16, 2024, by and among the Company, certain of its subsidiaries, and Mithaq.
The Second Mithaq Term Loan also matures on April 16, 2031, and requires monthly payments equivalent to interest charged at the SOFR per annum plus 4.000%, with the first year’s monthly payments to Mithaq deferred until April 30, 2025. On April 28, 2025, the Company and Mithaq entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Second Mithaq Term Loan promissory note, which subjected these deferred monthly payments due as of April 30, 2025 to a payment plan, payable in installments prior to the end of Fiscal 2025. The Second Mithaq Term Loan is guaranteed by each of the Company’s subsidiaries that guarantees the ABL Credit Facility and the SLR Term Loan.
Pursuant to the Company’s refinancing transactions on December 16, 2025, the Second Mithaq Term Loan was further amended to allow the Company to defer its monthly payments upon written notice to Mithaq, and as an amendment consent fee, its principal amount was increased by $2.7 million to $92.7 million, leaving an aggregate of $111.1 million outstanding under the Initial Mithaq Term Loans. These amendments were evaluated under FASB ASC 470 — Debt, and accounted for as debt modifications.
For the Second Quarter 2026 and Second Quarter 2025, the Company recognized $1.8 million and $1.9 million, respectively, in interest-equivalent expense related to the Second Mithaq Term Loan. During the Year-To-Date 2026 and the Year-To-Date 2025, the Company recognized $3.5 million and $3.7 million, respectively, in interest expense related to the Second Mithaq Term Loan. As of August 1, 2026, the interest-equivalent rate was 7.6%.
During the Second Quarter 2026, the Company deferred all interest-equivalent payments to Mithaq, which is expected to be settled upon maturity of the Second Mithaq Term Loan. During the Second Quarter 2025, the Company paid $3.3 million in interest-equivalent charges to Mithaq. These payments were made in the form of Murabaha transactions to be compliant with Shariah law. The purchase and sale of commodities as a result of these transactions were accounted for in accordance with FASB ASC 610 — Other income, and presented on a net basis within Related party interest expense. As of August 1, 2026, January 31, 2026, and August 2, 2025, interest-equivalent expense payable to Mithaq was $9.1 million, $5.6 million, and $7.0 million, respectively. As the payments due as of August 1, 2026 are not expected to be settled within 12 months due to payment condition restrictions within the Credit Agreement, the amounts payable are recorded within Other long-term liabilities.
The Initial Mithaq Term Loans are subject to an amended and restated subordination agreement (as amended from time to time, the “Mithaq Subordination Agreement”), dated as of April 16, 2024, by and among the Company and certain subsidiaries, Wells Fargo and Mithaq, pursuant to which the Initial Mithaq Term Loans are subordinated in payment priority to the obligations of the Company and its subsidiaries under the Credit Agreement.
Pursuant to the Company’s refinancing transactions in December 2025, the Initial Mithaq Term Loans are also subordinated in payment priority to the obligations of the Company and its subsidiaries under the SLR Term Loan. Subject to such subordination terms, the Initial Mithaq Term Loans are prepayable at any time and from time to time without penalty and do not require any mandatory prepayments.
The Initial Mithaq Term Loans contain customary affirmative and negative covenants substantially similar to a subset of the covenants set forth in the Credit Agreement, including limits on the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to incur certain liens, to incur certain indebtedness, to make certain investments, acquisitions, dispositions or restricted payments, or to change the nature of its business. The Initial Mithaq Term Loans, however, do not provide for any closing, prepayment or exit fees, or other fees typical for transactions of this nature, do not impose additional reserves on borrowings under the Credit Agreement, and do not contain certain other restrictive covenants.
The Initial Mithaq Term Loans contain certain customary events of default, which include (subject in certain cases to customary grace periods), nonpayment of principal, breach of other covenants of the Initial Mithaq Term Loans, inaccuracy in representations or warranties, acceleration of certain other indebtedness (including under the Credit Agreement), certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization, such as a change of control, and invalidity of any part of the Initial Mithaq Term Loans.
As of August 1, 2026, January 31, 2026, and August 2, 2025, unamortized deferred financing costs amounted to $3.2 million, $3.6 million, and $1.2 million, respectively, related to the Initial Mithaq Term Loans.
Mithaq Commitment Letter
On May 2, 2024, the Company entered into a commitment letter (the “Commitment Letter”) with Mithaq for a $40.0 million credit facility (the “Mithaq Credit Facility”). Initially, under the Mithaq Credit Facility, the Company had the ability to request for advances at any time prior to July 1, 2025. On December 16, 2025, the Company and Mithaq entered into an Amendment No. 3 to the Commitment Letter, that extended the deadline for requesting advances until December 16, 2030.
If any debt is incurred under the Mithaq Credit Facility, it shall require monthly payments equivalent to interest charged at the SOFR per annum plus 9.000%. Such debt shall be unsecured and shall be guaranteed by each of the Company’s subsidiaries that guarantees the ABL Credit Facility and the SLR Term Loan. Similar to the Initial Mithaq Term Loans, such debt shall also be subject to the Mithaq Subordination Agreement, contain customary affirmative and negative covenants substantially similar to a subset of the covenants set forth in the Credit Agreement, and contain certain customary events of default. Additionally, such debt shall require no mandatory prepayments and shall mature no earlier than December 16, 2030.
On July 1, 2026, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a Shariah compliant, unsecured and subordinated promissory note with Mithaq for a $15.0 million term loan (the “Third Mithaq Term Loan”; and collectively with the Initial Mithaq Term Loans, the “Mithaq Term Loans”), as the first advance under the Company’s $40.0 million Mithaq Credit Facility. The net proceeds from the Third Mithaq Term Loan were received by the Company on July 1, 2026 and used to partially pay down its borrowings under the ABL Credit Facility, to reduce a portion of its accounts payable balances with vendors, and for other working capital purposes. As of August 1, 2026, the Company’s remaining availability under the Mithaq Credit Facility was $25.0 million.
Similar to the Initial Mithaq Term Loans, the Third Mithaq Term Loan matures on April 16, 2031, and is guaranteed by each of the Company’s subsidiaries that guarantees the ABL Credit Facility and the SLR Term Loan.
Similar to the Second Mithaq Term Loan, the Third Mithaq Term Loan requires monthly payments equivalent to interest charged at the SOFR per annum plus 9.000%, with such payments subject to deferral by the Company upon written notice to Mithaq.
For the Second Quarter 2026 and Year-To-Date 2026, the Company recognized $0.2 million in interest expense related to the Third Mithaq Term Loan. As of August 1, 2026, the interest-equivalent rate was 12.6%.
In addition, similar to the Initial Mithaq Term Loans, the Third Mithaq Term Loan is subject to the Mithaq Subordination Agreement, pursuant to which the Third Mithaq Term Loan is also subordinated in payment priority to the obligations of the Company and its subsidiaries under the Credit Agreement and the SLR Loan Agreement. Subject to such subordination terms, the Third Mithaq Term Loan is also prepayable at any time and from time to time without penalty and does not require any mandatory prepayments.
Similar to the Initial Mithaq Term Loans, the Third Mithaq Term Loan also contains customary affirmative and negative covenants substantially similar to a subset of the covenants set forth in the Credit Agreement, including limits on the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to incur certain liens, to incur certain indebtedness, to make certain investments, acquisitions, dispositions or restricted payments, or to change the nature of its business. The Third Mithaq Term Loan, however, does not provide for any closing, prepayment or exit fees, or other fees typical for transactions of this nature, does not impose additional reserves on borrowings under the Credit Agreement, and does not contain certain other restrictive covenants.
Similar to the Initial Mithaq Term Loans, the Third Mithaq Term Loan also contains certain customary events of default, which include (subject in certain cases to customary grace periods), nonpayment of principal, breach of other covenants of the Third Mithaq Term Loan, inaccuracy in representations or warranties, acceleration of certain other indebtedness (including under the Credit Agreement), certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization, such as a change of control, and invalidity of any part of the Third Mithaq Term Loan.

Monetization of Income Tax Receivable Claim
On February 5, 2026, the Company entered into a Receivables Purchase Agreement (the “RPA”) with TRMEF Basis II LLC (“TRMEF”) to monetize its CARES Act income tax receivable claim of $19.1 million plus accrued interest of $3.7 million at a purchase rate of 88.5%, for a total purchase price of $20.1 million. The Company received net cash proceeds of $15.9 million, after insurance and legal fees amounting to $0.7 million. The remaining proceeds of $3.5 million are expected to be received in two tranches as follows: (i) upon confirmation by the IRS of submission by the IRS of the Revenue Agent Report to the Joint Committee on Taxation, TRMEF shall pay $2.5 million to the Company, less the amount of any downward adjustments in respect of the tax refund claim set forth in such Revenue Agent Report, and (ii) on the date on which TRMEF receives payment in full in cash of the refund claim, TRMEF shall pay $1.0 million to the Company, less 10% of accrued interest as of the effective date of the RPA.
The monetization of the Company’s income tax receivable claim was accounted for in accordance with FASB ASC 470 — Debt, and presented as Short-term debt. As of August 1, 2026, the unamortized financing costs amounted to $2.2 million. These costs are being amortized through the expected settlement date of the claim and recorded in Interest expense based on an effective interest rate of 18.0%.
Monetization of IEEPA Tariff Refund Claims
On March 31, 2026, the Company entered into a Claim Sale and Purchase Agreement with Alnus Investors, LLC (“Alnus”) to monetize its claims for refunds of tariffs previously paid to the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (“CBP”), related to those tariffs originally invoked under the International Emergency Economics Powers Act of 1977, for which such tariffs were ruled unlawful by the United States Supreme Court on February 20, 2026. Alnus purchased an aggregate amount of $38.2 million of the approximately $40 million refund claims submitted to the CBP at a purchase rate of 67.2%, for a total purchase price of $25.7 million.
The monetization of the Company’s tariff refund claims was accounted for in accordance with FASB ASC 470 — Debt, and presented as Short-term debt. During the Second Quarter 2026, the Company received tariff refunds amounting to approximately $39 million (excluding interest), the majority of which was remitted to Alnus which reduced the Short-term debt outstanding. As of August 1, 2026, the unamortized financing costs amounted to $0.6 million. These costs are being amortized through the expected settlement date of the claim and recorded in Interest expense.
