Adjusted net income (loss) is also expressed on a diluted per share basis. We believe presenting non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors, allowing them to assess how the business performed excluding the effects of significant non-recurring or non-operational amounts. We believe the use of the non-GAAP financial measures facilitates comparing the results being reported against past and future results by eliminating amounts that we believe are not comparable between periods and assists investors in evaluating the effectiveness of our operations and underlying business trends in a manner that is consistent with management’s own methods for evaluating business performance. Our management uses Adjusted net income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate the operating performance of our business for comparable periods and to discuss our business with our Board of Directors, institutional investors and other market participants. Adjusted EBITDA is also used as the basis for a performance measure used in executive incentive compensation. The methods we use to calculate our non-GAAP financial measures may differ significantly from methods other companies use to compute similar measures. As a result, any non-GAAP financial measures presented herein may not be comparable to similar measures provided by other companies. Adjusted net income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA should not be used by investors or other third parties as the sole basis for formulating investment decisions as these measures may exclude a number of important cash and non-cash recurring items. Adjusted net income (loss) is defined as net income (loss) excluding significant non-recurring or non-operational items as set forth below. Adjusted net income (loss) is also presented on a diluted per share basis. While Adjusted net income (loss) is a non-GAAP measurement, management believes that it is an important indicator of operating performance and useful to investors. Other significant non-recurring or non-operational items, while periodically affecting our results, may vary significantly from period to period and have a disproportionate effect in a given period, which affects comparability of results and are described below:For the 52 and 53 weeks ended January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, we excluded the impact of the non-cash write down of certain long-lived assets and goodwill.For the 13 and 52 weeks ended January 31, 2025 and the 14 and 53 weeks ended February 2, 2024, we excluded the charges to exit the kids and footwear lines of business, including inventory excess and obsolescence reserves, inventory discounts and operational costs, in conjunction with our licensing arrangements which commenced in first quarter fiscal 2024.For the 14 weeks and 53 weeks ended February 2, 2024, we excluded the loss on extinguishment of debt.For the 14 weeks and 53 weeks ended February 2, 2024, we excluded the net operating income (loss) from liquidation and closing costs for Lands’ End Japan closure.For the 13 and 52 weeks ended January 31, 2025 and the 14 and 53 weeks ended February 2, 2024, we excluded the costs associated with restructuring, primarily severance and benefit costs.For the 13 and 52 weeks ended January 31, 2025, we excluded the gain on sale of building and excess land. The following tables set forth, for the periods indicated, a reconciliation of Net income (loss) to Adjusted net income and Adjusted diluted earnings per share: 13 Weeks Ended 14 Weeks Ended (in thousands, except per share amounts)January 31, 2025 February 2, 2024 Net income (loss) 18,519 (8,620)Corporate restructuring 1,077 4,649 Goodwill and long-lived asset impairment — — Exit costs 240 9,279 Loss on extinguishment of debt — 6,666 Lands' End Japan closure — (338)Gain on disposal of property and equipment (2,501) — Tax effects on adjustments (1) 356 (3,634)ADJUSTED NET INCOME$17,691 $8,002 ADJUSTED DILUTED NET EARNINGS PER SHARE$0.57 $0.25 Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding 31,299 31,653 (1) The tax impact of adjustments is calculated at the applicable U.S. and non-U.S. Federal and State statutory rates. 52 Weeks Ended 53 Weeks Ended (in thousands, except per share amounts)January 31, 2025 February 2, 2024 Net income (loss) 6,233 (130,684)Corporate restructuring 5,558 7,305 Goodwill and long-lived asset impairment 3,818 106,700 Exit costs 927 9,279 Loss on extinguishment of debt — 6,666 Lands' End Japan closure — (215)Gain on disposal of property and equipment (2,501) — Tax effects on adjustments (1) (1,463) (3,834)ADJUSTED NET INCOME (LOSS)$12,572 $(4,783)ADJUSTED DILUTED NET EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE$0.40 $(0.15) Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding 31,664 31,970 (1) The tax impact of adjustments is calculated at the applicable U.S. and non-U.S. Federal and State statutory rates. While Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measurement, management believes that it is an important indicator of operating performance, and is useful to investors, because EBITDA excludes the effects of financings, investing activities and tax structure by eliminating the effects of interest, depreciation and income tax. Other significant items, while periodically affecting our results, may vary significantly from period to period and have a disproportionate effect in a given period, which affects comparability of results and are described below: For the 52 and 53 weeks ended January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, we excluded the impact of the non-cash write down of certain long-lived assets and goodwill.For the 13 and 52 weeks ended January 31, 2025 and the 14 and 53 weeks ended February 2, 2024, we excluded the charges to exit the kids and footwear lines of business, including inventory excess and obsolescence reserves, inventory discounts and operational costs, in conjunction with our licensing arrangements which commenced in first quarter fiscal 2024.For the 13 and 52 weeks ended January 31, 2025 and the 14 and 53 weeks ended February 2, 2024, we excluded the costs associated with restructuring, primarily severance and benefit costs.For the 14 weeks and 53 weeks ended February 2, 2024, we excluded the net operating income (loss) from liquidation and closing costs for Lands’ End Japan closure.For the 13 and 52 weeks ended January 31, 2025 and the 14 and 53 weeks ended February 2, 2024, we excluded the respective net gain or loss on disposal of property and equipment.
