Forward-Looking Statements This presentation contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this presentation are forward-looking statements. You can identify forward-looking statements by the fact that they generally include words such as "anticipate," "estimate," "expect," "project," "plan,“ "intend," "believe," “outlook” and other words of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of the timing or nature of future operating orfinancial performance or other events but not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. These forward-looking statements are based on assumptions that the Company’s management has made in light oftheir industry experience and on their perceptions of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors they believe are appropriate under the circumstances. As you consider this presentation, you should understand that these statements are not guarantees of performance or results. They involve risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond the Company’s control) and assumptions. These risks, uncertainties and assumptions include, but are not limited to, the following: the effect of COVID-19 on our business operations, growth strategies, store traffic, employee availability, financial condition, liquidity and cash flow; decreases in consumer spending due to declines in consumer confidence, local economic conditions or changes in consumer preferences and the Company’s ability to effectively: execute on its growth strategy; maintain and enhance its strong brand image; compete effectively; maintain good relationships with its key suppliers; and improve and expand its exclusive product offerings. The Company discusses the foregoing risks and other risks in greater detail under the heading “Risk factors” in the periodic reports filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Although the Company believes that these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, you should be aware that many factors could affect the Company’s actual financial results and cause them to differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements. Because of these factors, the Company cautions that you should not place undue reliance on any of these forward-looking statements. New risks and uncertainties arise from time to time, and it is impossible for the Company to predict those events or how they may affect the Company. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date onwhich it is made. Except as required by law, the Company does not intend to update or revise the forward-looking statements in this presentation after the date of this presentation. Industry and Market Information Statements in this presentation concerning our industry and the markets in which we operate, including our general expectations and competitive position, business opportunity and market size, growth and share, are based on information from independent industry organizations and other third-party sources, data from our internal research and management estimates. Management estimates are derived from publicly available information and the information and data referred to above and are based on assumptions and calculations made by us based upon our interpretation of such information and data. The information and data referred to above are imprecise and may prove to be inaccurate because the information cannot always be verified with complete certainty due to the limitations on the availability and reliability of raw data, the voluntary nature of the data gathering process and other limitations and uncertainties. As a result, please be aware that the data and statistical information in this presentation may differ from information provided by our competitors or from information found in current or future studies conducted by market research institutes, consultancy firms or independent sources. COVID-19 Impact The extent to which COVID-19 impacts our operations will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and difficultto predict, including, among others, the duration of the outbreak, new information that may emerge concerning the severity of COVID-19 and the actions, especially those taken by governmental authorities, to contain the pandemic or treat its impact. As events are rapidly changing, additional impacts may arise that we are not aware of currently. For more information about the risks, uncertainties, and other factors that could affect our future results, please see the risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Non-GAAP Financial Measures The Company presents Adjusted EBIT because it is an important financial measure that its management, board of directors and lenders use to assess the Company’s operating performance. However, Adjusted EBIT is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income or any other measure of financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company defines Adjusted EBIT as earnings before interest and income tax, adjusted to exclude non-cash stock-based compensation, the non-cash accrual for future award redemptions, acquisition-related expenses, acquisition-related integration costs, amortization of inventory fair value adjustment, loss on disposal of assets and contract termination costs, loss/(gain) on adjustment of ROU asset and liability, store impairment charges, secondary offering costs, andother due diligence expenses. In addition, for fiscal year 2017, which was a 53-week fiscal year, the Company has made further adjustments to account for the extra week. Since Adjusted EBIT is a non-GAAP financial measure, it is susceptible to varying calculations and the Company’s Adjusted EBIT may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, includingcompanies in its industry. See the Appendix to this presentation for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBIT to Net Income.
