Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
SEGMENT INFORMATION SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company’s reportable segments are based on the financial information the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) uses to allocate resources and assess performance of its business. The Company’s President and Interim Chief Executive Officer is the CODM. The Company’s CODM evaluates the performance of each segment and measures its segment profitability based on operating income (loss), defined as income (loss) before interest and taxes. Operating income (loss) is used as a key metric during the annual budget process, and on a quarterly basis to monitor actual performance against the annual budget and forecasts.
The Company reports segment data based on geography: The Children’s Place U.S. and The Children’s Place International. Each segment includes an e-commerce business located at www.childrensplace.com and www.gymboree.com. Included in The Children’s Place U.S. segment are the Company’s U.S. and Puerto Rico-based stores and net sales from the Company’s U.S.-based wholesale business. Included in The Children’s Place International segment are the Company’s Canadian-based stores and net sales from international franchisees. Net sales and direct costs are recorded by each segment. Certain inventory procurement functions, such as production and design, as well as corporate overhead, including executive management, finance, real estate, human resources, legal, and information technology services, are managed by The Children’s Place U.S. segment. Expenses related to these functions, including depreciation and amortization, are allocated to The Children’s Place International segment based primarily on net sales. The assets related to these functions are not allocated. The Company periodically reviews these allocations and adjusts them based upon changes in business circumstances.
Major Customers
Net sales to external customers are derived from merchandise sales, and the Company has one U.S. wholesale customer that individually accounted for more than 10% of its net sales, amounting to $32.2 million for the First Quarter 2025, and accounts for a majority of the Company’s accounts receivable, amounting to $25.2 million as of May 3, 2025.
