Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Dillard’s, Inc. (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended August 1, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending January 30, 2021 due to, among other factors, the seasonal nature of the business and the COVID-19 pandemic.

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 1, 2020 filed with the SEC on March 31, 2020.

COVID-19

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a novel coronavirus (COVID-19) as a pandemic, which continues to spread throughout the United States and the world. The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic have had and continue to have a significant impact on the Company's business, results of operations and financial position. At present, the COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant negative effect on the Company's liquidity and net sales. Due to heightened uncertainty relating to the impacts of COVID-19 on the Company’s business operations, including the duration and impact on overall customer demand, our liquidity, net sales and profitability may be further impacted if we are unable to appropriately manage our inventory levels and expenses.

The Company began closing stores on March 19, 2020 as mandated by state and local governments, and by April 9, 2020, all 285 store locations were temporarily closed. The Company began re-opening stores on May 5, 2020, and by June 2, 2020, all stores had been re-opened using the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention ("CDC") guidelines to promote a safe environment for our customers and employees. All stores remain open and operating at reduced hours with the exception of one location.

As part of the Company's liquidity strategy during the COVID-19 pandemic, in March 2020, the Company borrowed $779 million under the credit agreement, which was repaid concurrent with the execution of the amended credit agreement. At August 1, 2020, borrowings of $229.6 million were outstanding, and letters of credit totaling $21.0 million were issued under the amended credit agreement leaving unutilized availability under the facility of $447.0 million. See Note 7, Revolving Credit Agreement, for additional information.

We assess the impairment of long-lived assets, primarily fixed assets and operating lease assets, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. We evaluated the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and determined that as of August 1, 2020, the carrying values of our property and equipment and operating lease assets were recoverable. Accordingly, no impairment charge was recorded for the six months ended August 1, 2020. We

will continue to monitor these factors and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on future periods and continue to assess these assets for impairment as needed.
