Fourth Quarter Results Net sales increased 2.8% to $667.1 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 from $648.9 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023. The increase in net sales was driven by new store growth and a comparable store sales increase of 2.8%, partially offset by the impact of last year’s 53rd week, which accounted for $34.0 million in sales. The comparable store sales increase was driven by fairly equal increases in both transactions and basket size. Gross margin increased 20 basis points to 40.7% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 from 40.5% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023. The increase in gross margin was primarily driven by lower supply chain costs, partially offset by a slightly lower merchandise margin, primarily driven by changes in sales mix between product categories. Selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales increased to 25.5% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 from 24.1% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023. Excluding a one-time expense of $5.5 million for the accelerated expense resulting from the modification of existing equity awards for our Executive Chairman, SG&A as a percentage of net sales, increased 50 basis points to 24.6% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 compared to 24.1% the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, primarily driven by higher expenses related to our new store growth and the earlier timing of new store openings in fiscal 2025 as compared to fiscal 2024. Pre-opening expenses increased to $4.8 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 from $1.6 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023. The increase was primarily driven by higher expenses related to our new store growth and the earlier timing of new store openings in fiscal 2025 as compared to fiscal 2024. Included in fiscal 2024 are dark rent expenses associated with bankruptcy acquired locations of $1.1 million. Operating income was $87.7 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, and included a one-time expense of $5.5 million for the accelerated expense resulting from the modification of existing equity awards for our Executive Chairman. Excluding this one-time expense, adjusted operating income(1) decreased 4.5% to $93.2 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 from $97.7 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023. Adjusted operating margin(1) decreased 100 basis points to 14.0% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 from 15.0% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023. Net income decreased 10.4% to $68.6 million, or $1.11 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 from $76.5 million, or $1.23 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023. Adjusted net income(1), which excludes excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation and the one-time equity awards expense decreased 3.8% to $73.4 million, or $1.19 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 from $76.3 million, or $1.23 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023. Adjusted EBITDA(1) decreased 1.1% to $109.4 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 from $110.6 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023. Adjusted EBITDA margin(1) decreased 60 basis points to 16.4% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 from 17.0% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023. Fiscal 2024 Results Net sales increased 8.0% to $2.272 billion in fiscal 2024 from $2.103 billion in fiscal 2023. Excluding the $34.0 million impact of the 53rd week in fiscal 2023, net sales increased 9.8%. The increase in net sales was driven by new store growth and a comparable store sales increase of 2.8%. Gross margin increased 70 basis points to 40.3% in fiscal 2024 from 39.6% in fiscal 2023. The increase in gross margin is primarily due to favorable supply chain costs. Selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales increased to 27.0% in fiscal 2024 from 26.8% in fiscal 2023. Excluding a one-time expense of $5.5 million for the accelerated expense resulting from the modification of existing equity awards for our Executive Chairman, SG&A as a percentage of net sales, decreased 10 basis points to 26.7% in fiscal 2024 from 26.8% in fiscal 2023, primarily the result of increased leverage of fixed expenses from the increase in comparable store sales. Pre-opening expenses increased to $19.3 million in fiscal 2024 from $14.1 million in fiscal 2023. The increase was primarily due to the earlier timing of new store openings in fiscal 2025 as compared to fiscal 2024, start-up costs related to opening the Princeton, IL distribution center, and dark rent expense associated with the bankruptcy acquired new store locations. Operating income was $249.5 million in fiscal 2024, and included a one-time expense of $5.5 million for the accelerated expense resulting from the modification of existing equity awards for our Executive Chairman. Excluding this one-time expense, adjusted operating income(1) increased 11.9% to $255.0 million in fiscal 2024 from $227.8 million in fiscal 2023. Adjusted operating margin(1) increased 40 basis points to 11.2% in fiscal 2024 from 10.8% in fiscal 2023. Net income increased 10.1% to $199.8 million, or $3.23 per diluted share, in fiscal 2024 from $181.4 million, or $2.92 per diluted share, in fiscal 2023. Adjusted net income(1), which excludes excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation and the one-time equity awards expense, increased 12.2% to $202.4 million, or $3.28 per diluted share, in fiscal 2024 from $180.4 million, or $2.91 per diluted share, in fiscal 2023. Adjusted EBITDA(1) increased 13.8% to $313.1 million in fiscal 2024 from $275.2 million in fiscal 2023. Adjusted EBITDA margin(1) increased 70 basis points to 13.8% in fiscal 2024 from 13.1% in fiscal 2023. Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Highlights The Company's cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments were $428.7 million as of the end of fiscal 2024 compared with $353.2 million as of the end of fiscal 2023. The Company had no outstanding borrowings under its $100 million revolving credit facility and $85.8 million of availability under the facility as of the end of fiscal 2024. The Company ended the period with total borrowings, consisting solely of finance lease obligations, of $1.6 million as of the end of fiscal 2024. Inventories as of the end of fiscal 2024 increased 9.2% to $552.5 million compared with $505.8 million as of the end of fiscal 2023, primarily driven by our accelerating store growth and earlier cadence of new store openings for fiscal 2025. On a per store basis, inventories were relatively flat year-over-year. Capital expenditures were $120.6 million in fiscal 2024, primarily related to the development of new stores, the completion of the Company’s fourth distribution center in Princeton, IL, the acquisition of the former 99 Cents Only Stores and Big Lots Stores locations through the bankruptcy auction process, and the remodeling of existing stores. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company invested $5.7 million of cash to repurchase 52,155 shares of its common stock, resulting in $53.0 million invested in fiscal 2024. As of February 1, 2025, $32.7 million remained available for future share repurchases under the Company’s existing share repurchase program authorization. This morning, the Company issued a separate press release announcing a new share repurchase authorization for the repurchase of an additional $300 million of the Company’s outstanding common stock, which was unanimously approved by the Company’s Board of Directors, and is effective through March 31, 2029. Real Estate Update The Company recently announced the acquisition of an additional 40 former Big Lots store locations subsequent to year-end, securing the path to our accelerated growth target of 75 stores for fiscal 2025. These store locations are leased properties with below market rent and favorable leasing structures, located in good trade areas, and have been serving value-oriented customers for many years. The purchase price for these acquired stores was funded by cash on hand. Fiscal 2025 Outlook The Company is accelerating new store openings during fiscal 2025 to 75 stores from 50 in fiscal 2024. With that framework in place, the Company estimates the following for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2026:   New store openings75Net sales$2.564 to $2.586 billionComparable store sales increase1% to 2%Gross margin40%Operating income(1)$283 to $292 millionAdjusted net income(1)(2)(3)$225 to $232 millionAdjusted net income per diluted share(1)(2)(3)$3.65 to $3.75Annual effective tax rate (excludes excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation)25%Diluted weighted average shares outstanding62 millionCapital expenditures$83 to $88 million   (1) The earnings outlook noted above includes dark rent expenses of approximately $5 million, or $0.06 in adjusted earnings per share, included within pre-opening expenses resulting from the Company’s acquisition of leases of former Big Lots stores. (2) The outlook ranges as provided for adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share exclude the excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation as the Company cannot predict such estimates without unreasonable effort.(3) The earnings outlook noted above includes interest income of approximately $17 million. This assumes the potential for lower interest rates in fiscal 2025.

We have included the non-GAAP measures of EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, and adjusted net income per diluted share in this press release as these are key measures used by our management and our board of directors to evaluate our operating performance and the effectiveness of our business strategies, make budgeting decisions, and evaluate compensation decisions. Management believes it is useful to investors and analysts to evaluate these non-GAAP measures on the same basis as management uses to evaluate the Company’s operating results. We believe that excluding items that may not be indicative of, or are unrelated to, our core operating results, and that may vary in frequency or magnitude from net income and net income per diluted share, enhances the comparability of our results and provides a better baseline for analyzing trends in our business. The tables below reconcile the most directly comparable GAAP measure to non-GAAP financial measures: operating income to adjusted operating income, net income to adjusted net income, net income per diluted share to adjusted net income per diluted share, and net income to EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted operating income excludes the one-time expense for the accelerated expense resulting from the modification of existing equity awards for our Executive Chairman; adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share exclude the one-time expense for the accelerated expense resulting from the modification of existing equity awards for our Executive Chairman and adjustments to the provisions for income taxes and excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation, each of which may not occur with the same frequency or magnitude in future periods. We define EBITDA as net income before net interest income or expense, depreciation and amortization expenses, and income taxes. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA as further adjusted for non-cash stock-based compensation expense. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed as supplementing, and not as an alternative to, or substitute for, the Company’s financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Certain of the items that may be excluded or included in non-GAAP financial measures may be significant items that could impact the Company's financial position, results of operations, and cash flows and should therefore be considered in assessing the Company's actual financial condition and performance.
