NOTE 2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

There were no new accounting standards adopted that had an impact on the Company’s financial statements during the 13 weeks ended April 29, 2022.

NOTE 3. EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

The numerator for both basic and diluted EPS is net income (loss). The denominator for basic EPS is based upon the number of weighted average shares of Lands’ End common stock outstanding during the reporting periods. The denominator for diluted EPS is based upon the number of weighted average shares of Lands’ End common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding during the reporting periods using the treasury stock method in accordance with GAAP. Potentially dilutive securities for the diluted EPS calculations consist of non-vested equity shares of common stock and in-the-money outstanding options where the current stock price exceeds the option strike price.

The following table summarizes the components of basic and diluted EPS:

|  | 13 Weeks Ended |
(in thousands, except per share amounts) |  | April 29, 2022 |  |  | April 30, 2021 |
Net (loss) income |  | $ | (2,371 | ) |  | $ | 2,639 |
Basic weighted average common shares outstanding |  |  | 33,163 |  |  |  | 32,769 |
Dilutive effect of stock awards |  |  | — |  |  |  | 943 |
Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding |  |  | 33,163 |  |  |  | 33,712 |
Basic (loss) earnings per share |  | $ | (0.07 | ) |  | $ | 0.08 |
Diluted (loss) earnings per share |  | $ | (0.07 | ) |  | $ | 0.08 |

Stock awards are considered anti-dilutive based on the application of the treasury stock method or in the event of a net loss. Anti-dilutive shares excluded from the diluted weighted average shares outstanding were 1,427,987 and 115,345 in the 13 weeks ended April 29, 2022 and April 30, 2021, respectively.

NOTE 4. OTHER COMPREHENSIVE (LOSS) INCOME

Long-Term Debt

On September 9, 2020, the Company entered into the Term Loan Facility which provided borrowings of $275.0 million. Origination costs, including an Original Issue Discount (“OID”) of 3% and $5.1 million in debt origination fees, were paid in connection with entering into the Term Loan Facility. The OID and the debt origination fees are presented as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the Term Loan Facility and are amortized over the term of the loan to Interest expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Interest; Fees

The Third Amendment to the ABL Facility, effective July 31, 2021, lowered the applicable margin interest rates applicable to the referenced rate, selected at the borrower’s election, either (1) adjusted LIBOR or (2) a base rate which the greater of (a) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (b) the one month LIBOR rate plus 1.00%, or (c) the Wells Fargo “prime rate”. For all loans, the borrowing margin is based upon the average daily total loans outstanding for the previous quarter. The applicable borrowing margin for LIBOR loans is (i) less than $95.0 million, 1.25%, (ii) equal to or greater than $95.0 million but less than $180.0 million, 1.50%, and (iii) greater than or equal to $180.0 million, 1.75%.

Maturity; Amortization and Prepayments

The Third Amendment to the ABL Facility extended the maturity from November 16, 2022 to the earlier of (a) July 29, 2026 and (b) June 9, 2025 if, on or prior to such date, the Term Loan Facility has not been refinanced, extended or repaid in full in accordance with the terms thereof and not replaced with other indebtedness.

The Term Loan Facility matures on September 9, 2025 and amortizes at a rate equal to 1.25% per quarter. It is subject to mandatory prepayments in an amount equal to a percentage of the borrower’s excess cash flows in each fiscal year, ranging from 0% to 75% depending on the Company’s total leverage ratio, and with the proceeds of certain asset sales, casualty events and extraordinary receipts. The loan may not be voluntarily prepaid during the first two years of its term, without significant penalties. After the initial two-year period, a prepayment premium of 3% applies to voluntary prepayments and certain mandatory prepayments made after September 9, 2022 and on or prior to September 9, 2023, 1% for such prepayments made after September 9, 2023 and on or prior to September 9, 2024 and no premium on such prepayments thereafter.

Guarantees; Security

The ABL Facility is secured by a first priority security interest in certain working capital of the borrowers and guarantors consisting primarily of accounts receivable and inventory. The Term Loan Facility is secured by a second priority security interest in the same collateral with certain exceptions.

The Term Loan Facility is secured by a first priority security interest in certain property and assets of the borrowers and guarantors, including certain fixed assets such as real estate, stock of the subsidiaries and intellectual property, in each case, subject to certain exceptions. The ABL Facility is secured by a second priority interest in the same collateral, with certain exceptions.

Representations and Warranties; Covenants

The Debt Facilities contain certain affirmative covenants, including reporting requirements such as delivery of financial statements, certificates and notices of certain events, maintaining insurance, and providing additional guarantees and collateral in certain circumstances.

As of April 29, 2022, the Company was in compliance with its financial covenants in the Debt Facilities.

Events of Default

The Debt Facilities include customary events of default including non-payment of principal, interest or fees, violation of covenants, inaccuracy of representations or warranties, cross defaults related to certain other material indebtedness, bankruptcy and insolvency events, invalidity or impairment of guarantees or security interests, and material judgments and change of control.

NOTE 6. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company expenses the fair value of all stock awards over their respective vesting periods, ensuring that the amount of cumulative stock-based compensation expense recognized at any date is at least equal to the portion of the grant-date fair value of the award that is vested at that date. The Company has elected to adjust stock-based compensation expense for an estimated forfeiture rate for those shares not expected to vest and to recognize stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis for awards that only have a service requirement with multiple vest dates.

9

Table of Contents

The Company has granted the following types of stock awards to employees at management levels and above, each of which are granted under the Company’s stockholder approved stock plans, other than inducement grants outside of the Company’s stockholder approved stock plans in accordance with NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(c)(4):

| • | Deferred Awards are in the form of restricted stock units and only require each recipient to complete a service period for the awards to be earned. Deferred Awards generally vest over three years. The fair value of Deferred Awards is based on the closing price of the Company's common stock on the grant date. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized ratably over the service period and is reduced for estimated forfeitures of those awards not expected to vest due to employee turnover.

| • | Performance Awards are in the form of restricted stock units and have, in addition to a service requirement, performance criteria that must be achieved for the awards to be earned. For Performance Awards granted, the Target Shares earned can range from 50% to 200% once minimum thresholds have been reached and depend on the achievement of Adjusted EBITDA and revenue performance measures for the cumulative period comprised of three-consecutive fiscal years beginning with the fiscal year of the grant date. The applicable percentage of the Target Shares, as determined by performance, vest after the completion of the applicable three-year performance period and upon determination of achievement of the performance measures by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, and unearned Target Shares are forfeited. The fair value of the Performance Awards granted are based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized ratably over the related service period reduced for estimated forfeitures of those awards not expected to vest due to employee turnover and adjusted based on the Company’s estimate of the percentage of the aggregate Target Shares expected to be earned. Typically, the Company accrues for Performance Awards on a 100% payout unless it becomes probable that the outcome will be significantly different, or the performance can be accurately measured. The performance period has been completed for the Performance Awards granted during First Quarter 2019 and, based on the Company’s performance relative to the Adjusted EBITDA and revenue performance measures, these awards vested on March 25, 2022 at 118% of Target Shares. The stock-based compensation expense associated with the Performance Awards granted to employees during First Quarter 2022 and First Quarter 2021 is accrued at 100% and 114% payout, respectively.

| • | Option Awards provide the recipient with the option to purchase a set number of shares at a stated exercise price over the term of the contract, which is ten years for all Option Awards currently outstanding. Options are granted with a strike price equal to the stock price on the date of grant and vest ratably over a four-year period. The fair value of each Option Award is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

The following table provides a summary of the Company’s stock-based compensation expense, which is included in Selling and administrative expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations:

NOTE 9. INCOME TAXES

Provision for Income Taxes

At the end of each quarter, the Company estimates its effective income tax rate pursuant to ASC 740. The rate for the period consists of the tax rate expected to be applied for the full year to ordinary income adjusted for any discrete items recorded in the period.

The Company recorded a tax benefit at an overall effective tax rate of 42.3% for the 13 weeks ended April 29, 2022 and a tax expense at an overall effective tax rate of 11.3% for the 13 weeks ended April 30, 2021. The overall effective tax rates for the 13 weeks ended April 29, 2022 and the 13 weeks ended April 30, 2021 reflect a tax benefit as a result of stock-based compensation.

NOTE 10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Proceedings

The Company is party to various claims, legal proceedings and investigations arising in the ordinary course of business. Some of these actions involve complex factual and legal issues and are subject to uncertainties. At this time, the Company is not able to either predict the outcome of these legal proceedings or reasonably estimate a potential range of loss with respect to the proceedings. While it is not feasible to predict the outcome of such pending claims, proceedings and investigations with certainty, management is of the opinion that their ultimate resolution should not have a material adverse effect on results of operations, cash flows or financial position taken as a whole.

As disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 28, 2022, the Company is the defendant in three separate lawsuits, each of which allege adverse health events and personal property damage as a result of wearing uniforms manufactured by Lands’ End: (1) Gilbert et al. v. Lands’ End, Inc., United States District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin, Civil Action No. 3:19-cv-00823-JDP, complaint filed October 3, 2019; (2) Andrews et al. v. Lands’ End, Inc., United States District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin, Civil Action No. 3:19-cv-01066-JDP, complaint filed on December 31, 2019, on behalf of 521 named plaintiffs, later amended to include 1,089 named plaintiffs; and (3) Davis et al. v. Lands’ End, Inc. and Lands’ End Business Outfitters, Inc., United States District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin, Case No. 3:20-cv-00195, complaint filed on March 4, 2020. Plaintiffs in Gilbert, Andrews, and Davis seek nationwide class certification on behalf of similarly situated Delta employees.

By order dated April 20, 2020, the Court consolidated the Gilbert and Andrews cases (the “Consolidated Wisconsin Action”) and stayed the Davis case.

Plaintiffs in the Consolidated Wisconsin Action and Davis each assert that the damages sustained by the members of the proposed class exceed $5,000,000. Plaintiffs in each case seek damages for personal injuries, pain and suffering, severe emotional distress, financial or economic loss, including medical services and expenses, lost income and other compensable injuries. Plaintiffs in the Consolidated Wisconsin Action seek class certification with respect to performance of the uniforms and warranty claims and maintain individual claims for personal injury by numerous named plaintiffs.

On August 18, 2021, the Court ruled on several pending motions in the Consolidated Wisconsin Action. The Court denied Plaintiffs’ motion for class certification with respect to performance of the uniforms and warranty claims. The Court denied Plaintiffs’ motion for partial summary judgment regarding crocking claims and granted Lands’ End’s motion for partial summary judgment related to certain warranty claims. In addition, giving effect to both the addition and voluntary dismissal of individual plaintiffs over the course of the litigation, the number of individual plaintiffs had been reduced from 1,089 to 603 as of August 18, 2021. On September 1, 2021, Plaintiffs filed a Rule 23(f) petition, seeking interlocutory review of the Court’s decision denying class certification. On September 22, 2021, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit denied plaintiffs’ petition.

The Consolidated Wisconsin Action has several motions pending before the Court and continues to be in discovery. Lands’ End is vigorously defending these lawsuits and believes they are without merit.

NOTE 11. SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company’s operating segments consist of: U.S. eCommerce, Europe eCommerce, Japan eCommerce, Outfitters, Third Party and Retail. The Company determined that each of the operating segments have similar economic and other qualitative characteristics, thus the results of the operating segments are aggregated into one reportable external segment.

Table of Contents

Lands’ End identifies five separate distribution channels for revenue reporting purposes:

| • | U.S. eCommerce offers products through the Company’s eCommerce website.

| • | International offers products primarily to consumers located in Europe and Japan through eCommerce international websites and third-party affiliates.

| • | Outfitters sells uniform and logo apparel to businesses and their employees, as well as to student households through school relationships, located primarily in the U.S.

| • | Third Party sells the same products as U.S. eCommerce but direct to consumers through third-party marketplace websites and through domestic wholesale customers.

| • | Retail sells products through Company Operated stores.

Net revenue is presented by distribution channel in the following table:

NOTE 12. REVENUE

Revenue includes sales of merchandise and delivery revenue related to merchandise sold. Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is recognized when control of product passes to customers, which for the U.S. eCommerce, International, Outfitters and Third Party distribution channels is when the merchandise is received by the customer and for the Retail distribution channel is at the time of sale in the store. The Company recognizes revenue, including shipping and handling fees billed to customers, in the amount expected to be received when control of the Company's products transfers to customers, and is presented net of various forms of promotions, which range from contractually-fixed percentage price reductions to sales returns, discounts, and other incentives that may vary in amount. Variable amounts are estimated based on an analysis of historical experience and adjusted as better estimates become available.

The Company’s revenue is disaggregated by distribution channel and geographic location. Revenue by distribution channel is presented in Note 11, Segment Reporting. Revenue by geographic location was:

Contract Liabilities

Contract liabilities consist of payments received in advance of the transfer of control to the customer. As products are delivered and control transfers, the Company recognizes the deferred revenue in Net revenue in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The following table summarizes the deferred revenue associated with payments received in advance of the transfer of control to the customer, which is reported in Other current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, as well as amounts recognized through Net revenue for each period presented. The majority of deferred revenue as of April 29, 2022 is expected to be recognized in Net revenue in the fiscal quarter ending July 29, 2022, as products are delivered to customers.

Deferred revenue end of period |  | $ | 6,074 |  |  | $ | 25,374 |

Revenue from gift cards is recognized when (i) the gift card is redeemed by the customer for merchandise, or (ii) as gift card breakage, an estimate of gift cards which will not be redeemed where the Company does not have a legal obligation to remit the value of the unredeemed gift cards to the relevant jurisdictions. Gift card breakage is recorded within Net revenue in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Prior to their redemption, gift cards are recorded as a liability and included within Other current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The liability is estimated based on expected breakage that considers historical patterns of redemption. The following table provides the reconciliation of the contract liability related to gift cards:

|  | 13 Weeks Ended |

Balance as of end of period |  | $ | 32,015 |  |  | $ | 27,466 |

Refund Liabilities

Refund liabilities, primarily associated with product sales returns and retrospective volume rebates, represent variable consideration and are estimated and recorded as a reduction to Net revenue based on historical experience. As of April 29, 2022, April 30, 2021 and January 28, 2022, $15.6 million, $18.7 million and $23.4 million, respectively, of refund liabilities, primarily associated with product returns, were reported in Other current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. An asset for product returns is recorded in Prepaid expenses and other current assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Executive Overview

Description of the Company

Lands’ End is a leading uni-channel retailer of casual clothing, accessories, footwear and home products. Operating out of America’s heartland, we believe our vision and values make a strong connection with our core customers. We offer products online at www.landsend.com, through our own Company Operated stores and through third-party distribution channels. We are a classic American lifestyle brand with a passion for quality, legendary service and real value. We seek to deliver timeless style for women, men, kids and the home.

Lands’ End was founded in 1963 by Gary Comer and his partners to sell sailboat hardware and equipment by catalog. While our product focus has shifted significantly over the years, we have continued to adhere to our founder’s motto as one of our guiding principles: “Take care of the customer, take care of the employee and the rest will take care of itself.”

Table of Contents

We seek to provide a common customer experience regardless of whether our customers are interacting with us on our company websites, at Company Operated stores or through third-party distribution channels.

We have one external reportable segment and identify our operating segments according to how our business activities are managed and evaluated. Our operating segments consist of: U.S. eCommerce, Europe eCommerce, Japan eCommerce, Outfitters, Third Party and Retail. We have determined that each of our operating segments share similar economic and other qualitative characteristics, and therefore the results of our operating segments are aggregated into one external reportable segment.

Distribution Channels

We identify five separate distribution channels for revenue reporting purposes:

| • | U.S. eCommerce offers products through our eCommerce website.

| • | International offers products primarily to consumers located in Europe and Japan through our eCommerce international websites and third-party affiliates.

| • | Outfitters sells uniform and logo apparel to businesses and their employees, as well as to school households through school relationships, located primarily in the U.S.

| • | Third Party sells the same products as U.S. eCommerce but direct to consumers through third-party marketplace websites and through domestic wholesale customers.

| • | Retail sells products through our Company Operated stores.

Global Supply Chain and Macroeconomic Challenges

Like many companies, we continue to experience global supply chain challenges and disruptions. These global supply chain challenges and disruptions have caused manufacturing and transportation delays that have resulted in lower inventory positions, at times, on key products, higher than normal back orders and increased transportation and distribution costs. We continually monitor our supply chain for manufacturing and transportation delays caused or exacerbated by the COVID pandemic, among other factors. We have leveraged our relationships with suppliers to shift production schedules and increase lead times in comparison to prior years. In addition, we have rerouted shipments as we attempt to mitigate our exposure of unpredictable transportation delays with potential labor disruptions at the two major West Coast ports.

Macroeconomic issues, such as recent inflationary pressures and the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine have had an impact on our business. Since apparel purchases are discretionary expenditures that historically have been influenced by domestic and global economic conditions, higher prices of consumer goods due to inflation may result in less discretionary spending for consumers which may negatively impact customer demand. Additionally, macroeconomic challenges have led to increased cost of raw materials, packaging materials, labor, energy, fuel and other inputs necessary for the production and distribution of our products and may impact our gross margin.

We expect the global supply chain challenges, increased transportation and distribution costs and inflationary pressures to continue through the remainder of Fiscal 2022.

Basis of Presentation

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and include the accounts of Lands’ End, Inc. and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

Seasonality

We experience seasonal fluctuations in our Net revenue and operating results and historically have realized a significant portion of our net revenue and earnings for the year during our fourth fiscal quarter. We generated 33.9% and 37.7% of our net revenue in the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2021 and Fiscal 2020 respectively. The Fiscal 2021 percentage decrease of net revenue in the fourth quarter was primarily attributed to the global supply chain challenges. Thus, lower than expected fourth quarter net revenue has had and may continue to have an adverse impact on our annual operating results.

16

Table of Contents

Working capital requirements typically increase during the second and third quarters of the fiscal year as inventory builds to support peak shipping/selling periods and, accordingly, typically decrease during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year as inventory is shipped/sold. Cash provided by operating activities is typically higher in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year due to reduced working capital requirements during that period.

Results of Operations

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, selected income statement data, both in dollars and as a percentage of Net revenue:

NET (LOSS) INCOME |  | $ | (2,371 | ) |  |  | (0.8 | )% |  | $ | 2,639 |  |  |  | 0.8 | %

Depreciation and amortization are not included in our cost of sales because we are a reseller of inventory and do not believe that including depreciation and amortization is meaningful. As a result, our gross margins may not be comparable to other entities that include depreciation and amortization related to the sale of their product in their gross margin measure.

Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted EBITDA

We recorded a Net loss of $2.4 million in First Quarter 2022 compared to Net income of $2.6 million in First Quarter 2021. In addition to our Net income (loss) determined in accordance with GAAP, for purposes of evaluating operating performance, we use an Adjusted EBITDA measurement. Adjusted EBITDA is computed as Net income (loss) appearing on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations net of Income tax expense/(benefit), Interest expense, Depreciation and amortization and certain significant items as set forth below. Our management uses Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate the operating performance of our business for comparable periods and as a basis for an executive compensation metric. 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 EBITDA should not be used by investors or other third parties as the sole basis for formulating investment decisions as it excludes a number of important cash and non-cash recurring items.

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. We have adjusted our results for these items to make our statements more comparable and therefore more useful to investors as the items are not representative of our ongoing operations.

| • | Other – amortization of transaction related costs associated with Third Party distribution channel for the 13 weeks ended April 29, 2022 and April 30, 2021.

| • | Loss on disposal of property and equipment – management considers the net gain or loss on asset valuation to result from investing decisions rather than ongoing operations for the 13 weeks ended April 30, 2021.

Adjusted EBITDA |  | $ | 13,826 |  |  |  | 4.6 | % |  | $ | 22,465 |  |  |  | 7.0 | %

In assessing the operational performance of our business, we consider a variety of financial measures. We operate in five separate distribution channels for revenue reporting purposes: U.S. eCommerce, International, Outfitters, Third Party and Retail. A key measure in the evaluation of our business is revenue performance by distribution channel. We also consider Gross margin and Selling and administrative expenses in evaluating the performance of our business.

We use Net revenue to evaluate revenue performance for the U.S. eCommerce, International, Outfitters and Third Party distribution channels. For our Retail distribution channel, we use Same Store Sales as a key measure in evaluating performance. A store is included in Same Store Sales calculations when it has been open for at least 14 months and selling square footage has not changed by 15% or more within the past year. Online sales and sales generated through our in-store web portal are considered revenue in our U.S. eCommerce and International distribution channels and are excluded from Same Store Sales. Starting in First Quarter 2020, due to the COVID pandemic, we temporarily ceased using Same Store Sales as a key measure in evaluating performance. We reverted back to Same Store Sales beginning with Third Quarter 2021 as we believe there is greater comparability of year-on-year store and economic dynamics.

Discussion and Analysis

First Quarter 2022 compared with First Quarter 2021

Net Revenue

Net revenue for First Quarter 2022 was $303.7 million, a decrease of $17.6 million or 5.5% compared to $321.3 million from First Quarter 2021.

U.S. eCommerce Net revenue was $174.9 million for First Quarter 2022, a decrease of $28.7 million or 14.1%, from $203.6 million during the First Quarter 2021. Compared to First Quarter 2021, the decrease in revenue in First Quarter 2022 was driven by delayed receipts of key products due to the global supply chain challenges and macroeconomic challenges.

International eCommerce Net revenue was $44.2 million for First Quarter 2022, a decrease of $12.2 million or 21.7%, from $56.4 million during the First Quarter 2021. The decrease in revenue in First Quarter 2022 was driven by delayed receipts of key products due to the global supply chain challenges and macroeconomic challenges.

Outfitters Net revenue was $54.0 million for First Quarter 2022, an increase of $13.3 million or 32.6%, from $40.7 million during the First Quarter 2021. Compared to First Quarter 2021, the increase was attributed to stronger demand within our small and medium-sized business customers, national accounts and school uniform households.

Third Party Net revenue was $21.6 million for First Quarter 2022, an increase of $9.8 million or 83.3% from $11.8 million during the First Quarter 2021. The increase was primarily attributed to expanding the number of Kohl’s stores in the Third Quarter 2021 to a total of 300 retail locations, growth in existing online marketplaces, and the on-air launch of select product at QVC in First Quarter 2022.

Retail Net revenue was $9.0 million for First Quarter 2022, an increase of $0.2 million or 2.2% from $8.8 million during the First Quarter 2021. Our U.S. Company Operated stores experienced an increase of 3.6% in Same Store Sales as compared to the First Quarter 2021.

Gross Profit

Gross profit was $129.2 million for First Quarter 2022, a decrease of $18.5 million or 12.6% from $147.7 million during the First Quarter of 2021. Gross margin decreased approximately 350 basis points to 42.5% in First Quarter 2022, compared with 46.0% in First Quarter 2021. Compared to First Quarter 2021, gross margin decreased due to an incremental $13.6 million of transportation costs as a result of the global supply chain challenges.

Selling and Administrative Expenses

Selling and administrative expenses decreased $9.8 million to $115.7 million or 38.1% of total Net revenue in First Quarter 2022 compared with $125.5 million or 39.1% of Net revenue in First Quarter 2021. The approximately 100 basis point decrease was a result of continued expense controls and lower digital marketing spend partially offset by deleverage on lower sales.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense was $9.6 million in First Quarter 2022, a decrease of $0.3 million compared with $9.9 million in First Quarter 2021.

Other Operating Expense

There was no Other operating expense in First Quarter 2022 compared to $0.4 million in First Quarter 2021. The Other operating expense of $0.4 million in First Quarter 2021 was loss on disposal of property and equipment.

Operating Income

Operating income was $3.9 million in First Quarter 2022 compared to $11.9 million in First Quarter 2021. The $8.0 million decrease was driven by the decrease in Gross profit due to increased transportation costs attributed to the global supply chain challenges slightly offset by lower selling and administrative expenses.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $8.2 million in First Quarter 2022 compared to $9.1 million in First Quarter 2021. The $0.9 million decrease was primarily attributed to lower interest rates as a result of the Third Amendment to the ABL Facility and lower interest on Term Loan due to scheduled principal payments.

Other Income

Other income was $0.2 million in First Quarter 2022 compared to Other income of $0.2 million in First Quarter 2021.

Income Tax (Benefit) Expense

We recorded an income tax benefit at an overall effective tax rate of 42.3% for First Quarter 2022 and income tax expense at an overall effective tax rate of 11.3% for First Quarter 2021.

Net Income (Loss)

As a result of the above factors, Net loss was $2.4 million and diluted loss per share was $(0.07) in First Quarter 2022 compared with Net income of $2.6 million and diluted earnings per share of $0.08 in First Quarter 2021.

Adjusted EBITDA

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary need for liquidity is to fund working capital requirements of our business, capital expenditures, debt service and for general corporate purposes. Our cash and cash equivalents and the ABL Facility serve as sources of liquidity for short-term working capital needs and general corporate purposes. The ABL Facility had a balance outstanding of $125.0 million on April 29, 2022, other than letters of credit. Cash generated from our net revenue and profitability, and to a lesser extent our changes in working capital, are driven by the seasonality of our business, with a significant amount of net revenue and operating cash flows generally occurring in the fourth fiscal quarter of each year. We expect that our cash on hand and cash flows from operations, along with revolving on the ABL Facility, will be adequate to meet our capital requirements and operational needs for at least the next 12 months.

Description of Material Indebtedness

Debt Arrangements

Our $275.0 million revolving ABL Facility includes a $70.0 million sublimit for letters of credit and is available for working capital and other general corporate liquidity needs. On July 29, 2021, we executed the Third Amendment to the ABL Facility resulting in favorable financial terms and extension of the maturity date of the ABL Facility, as discussed below. The amount available to borrow is subject to the Loan Cap, as defined in the agreement, which considers the Borrowing Base calculated from eligible inventory, trade receivables and credit card receivables as defined in the agreement. The balance outstanding was $125.0 million and $80.0 million on April 29, 2022 and April 30, 2021, respectively. The balance of outstanding letters of credit was $14.6 million and $16.9 million on April 29, 2022 and April 30, 2021, respectively.

On September 9, 2020, we entered into the Term Loan Facility which provided borrowings of $275.0 million. Origination costs, including an Original Issue Discount (OID) of 3% and $5.1 million in debt origination fees were paid upon entering into the Term Loan Facility.

Interest; Fees

The Third Amendment to the ABL Facility, effective July 31, 2021, lowered the applicable margin interest rates applicable to the referenced rate, selected at the borrower’s election, either (1) adjusted LIBOR or (2) a base rate which the greater of (a) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (b) the one month LIBOR rate plus 1.00%, or (c) the Wells Fargo “prime rate”. For all loans, the borrowing margin is based upon the average daily total loans outstanding for the previous quarter. The applicable borrowing margin for LIBOR loans is (i) less than $95.0 million, 1.25%, (ii) equal to or greater than $95.0 million but less than $180.0 million, 1.50%, and (iii) greater than or equal to $180.0 million, 1.75%. For base rate loans, the applicable borrowing margin is (i) less than $95.0 million for the previous quarter, 0.50%, (ii) equal to or greater than $95.0 million but less than $180.0 million, 0.75%, and (iii) greater than or equal to $180.0 million, 1.00%. The Third Amendment to the ABL Facility replaced the 0.75% LIBOR floor with a 0.0% LIBOR floor.

The interest rates per annum applicable to the loans under the Term Loan Facility are based on a fluctuating rate of interest measured by reference to, at the borrower’s election, either (1) an adjusted LIBOR (with a minimum rate of 1.00%) plus 9.75% or (2) an alternative base rate (which is the greater of (i) the prime rate published in the Wall Street Journal, (ii) the federal funds rate, which shall be no lower than 0.00% plus ½ of 1.00%, or (iii) the one month LIBOR rate plus 1.00% per annum) plus 8.75%.

The ABL Facility fees include (i) commitment fees of 0.25% based upon the average daily unused commitment (aggregate commitment less loans and letter of credit outstanding) under the ABL Facility for the preceding fiscal quarter and (ii) customary letter of credit fees. As of April 29, 2022, we had borrowings of $125.0 million on the ABL Facility.

Customary agency fees are payable in respect of the Debt Facilities.

Maturity; Amortization and Prepayments

The Third Amendment to the ABL Facility extended the maturity from November 16, 2022 to the earlier of (a) July 29, 2026 and (b) June 9, 2025 if, on or prior to such date, the Term Loan Facility has not been refinanced, extended or repaid in full in accordance with the terms thereof and not replaced with other indebtedness.

Table of Contents

The Term Loan Facility matures on September 9, 2025 and amortizes at a rate equal to 1.25% per quarter. It is subject to mandatory prepayments in an amount equal to a percentage of the borrower’s excess cash flows in each fiscal year, ranging from 0% to 75% depending on our total leverage ratio, and with the proceeds of certain asset sales, casualty events and extraordinary receipts. The loan may not be voluntarily prepaid during the first two years of its term, without significant penalties. After the initial two-year period, a prepayment premium of 3% applies to voluntary prepayments and certain mandatory prepayments made after September 9, 2022 and on or prior to September 9, 2023, 1% for such prepayments made after September 9, 2023 and on or prior to September 9, 2024, and no premium on such prepayments thereafter.

Guarantees; Security

All obligations under the Debt Facilities are unconditionally guaranteed by Lands’ End, Inc. and, subject to certain exceptions, each of its existing and future direct and indirect subsidiaries. The ABL Facility is secured by a first priority security interest in certain working capital of the borrowers and guarantors consisting primarily of accounts receivable and inventory. The Term Loan Facility is secured by a second priority security interest in the same collateral, with certain exceptions.

The Term Loan Facility is secured by a first priority security interest in certain property and assets of the borrowers and guarantors, including certain fixed assets such as real estate, stock of the subsidiaries and intellectual property, in each case, subject to certain exceptions.

The Term Loan Facility contains certain financial covenants, including a quarterly maximum total leverage ratio test, a weekly minimum liquidity test and an annual maximum capital expenditure amount.

Under the ABL Facility, if excess availability falls below the greater of 10% of the Loan Cap amount or $15.0 million, we will be required to comply with a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.0 to 1.0.

The Debt Facilities contain certain affirmative covenants, including reporting requirements such as delivery of financial statements, certificates and notices of certain events, maintaining insurance and providing additional guarantees and collateral in certain circumstances.

As of April 29, 2022, we were in compliance with our financial covenants in the Debt Facilities.

Events of Default

The Debt Facilities include customary events of default including non-payment of principal, interest or fees, violation of covenants, inaccuracy of representations or warranties, cross defaults related to certain other material indebtedness, bankruptcy and insolvency events, invalidity or impairment of guarantees or security interests and material judgments and change of control.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities increased to $122.4 million during First Quarter 2022 from $38.7 million during First Quarter 2021. The $83.7 million increase in cash used in operating activities was primarily driven by an increase year over year in inventories and year over year change in other current liabilities. The $42.6 million increase in inventory compared to First Quarter 2021 was due to our in-transit inventory as a result of extended lead times due to global supply chain challenges and increased transportation costs.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $7.0 million and $4.9 million during First Quarter 2022 and First Quarter 2021, respectively. Cash used in investing activities for both periods was primarily used for investments to update our digital information technology infrastructure.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $117.3 million and $46.5 million during First Quarter 2022 and First Quarter 2021, respectively, primarily from borrowings through the ABL Facility to support increased supply chain costs and timing of our inventory purchases.

Contractual Obligations and Off-Balance-Sheet Arrangements

There have been no material changes to our contractual obligations and off-balance-sheet arrangements as discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 28, 2022.

Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

This document contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements reflect our current views with respect to, among other things, future events and performance. These statements may discuss, among other things, our net sales, gross margin, operating expenses, operating income, net income, adjusted EBITDA, cash flow, financial condition, financings, impairments, expenditures, growth, strategies, plans, achievements, dividends, capital structure, organizational structure, future store openings, market opportunities and general market and industry conditions. We generally identify forward-looking statements by words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “project,” “plan,” “predict,” “believe,” “seek,” “continue,” “outlook,” “may,” “might,” “will,” “should,” “can have,” “likely,” “targeting” or the negative version of these words or comparable words. Forward-looking statements are based on beliefs and assumptions made by management using currently available information. These statements are only predictions and are not guarantees of future performance, actions or events. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties. If one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or if management’s underlying beliefs and assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by a forward-looking statement. These risks and uncertainties include those risks, uncertainties and factors discussed in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 28, 2022 and “Part II, Item 1A Risk Factors” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made. We expressly disclaim any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable securities laws and regulations.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The market risk inherent in our financial instruments represents the potential loss arising from adverse changes in currency rates. A significant portion of our business is transacted in U.S. dollars, and is expected to continue to be transacted in U.S. dollars or U.S. dollar-based currencies. As of April 29, 2022, we had $9.3 million of cash denominated in foreign currencies, principally in British pound sterling, Euro and Japanese yen. We do not utilize financial instruments for trading purposes or hedging and have not used any derivative financial instruments. We do not consider our foreign earnings to be permanently reinvested.

We are subject to interest rate risk with the Term Loan Facility and the ABL Facility, as both require the Company to pay interest on outstanding borrowings at variable rates. Each one percentage point change in interest rates (above the 1.00% LIBOR floor) associated with the Term Loan Facility would result in a $2.5 million change in our annual cash interest expenses. Assuming our ABL Facility was fully drawn to a principal amount equal to $275.0 million, each one percentage point change in interest rates would result in a $2.8 million change in our annual cash interest expense.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company is party to various claims, legal proceedings and investigations arising in the ordinary course of business. Some of these actions involve complex factual and legal issues and are subject to uncertainties. At this time, the Company is not able to either predict the outcome of these legal proceedings or reasonably estimate a potential range of loss with respect to the proceedings. While it is not feasible to predict the outcome of pending claims, proceedings and investigations with certainty, management is of the opinion that their ultimate resolution should not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows or financial position taken as a whole.

For a description of our legal proceedings, see Note 10, Commitments and Contingencies in Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which description of legal proceedings is incorporated by reference herein.
