Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Basis of Presentation | 1. Basis of Presentation In the opinion of management of Destination XL Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (collectively with its subsidiaries, referred to as the “Company”), the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial statements. These financial statements do not include all disclosures associated with annual financial statements and, accordingly, should be read in conjunction with the notes to the Company’s audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the fiscal year ended February 3, 2024 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 21, 2024. The information set forth in these statements may be subject to normal year-end adjustments. The information reflects all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the Company’s results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the periods indicated. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company’s business historically has been seasonal in nature, and the results of the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The Company’s fiscal year is a 52- or 53- week period ending on the Saturday closest to January 31. Fiscal 2024 is a 52-week period ending on February 1, 2025 and fiscal 2023 was a 53-week period ending on February 3, 2024. Segment Information The Company has two operating segments: its stores and its direct business. The Company considers its stores and direct operating segments to be similar in terms of economic characteristics, production processes and operations, and has therefore aggregated them into one reportable segment, retail segment, consistent with its omni-channel business approach. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash in banks and short-term investments, which have a maturity of ninety days or less when acquired. Included in cash equivalents are credit card and debit card receivables from banks, which generally settle within two to four business days. Short-Term Investments Short-term investments consist of those investments that have a maturity date, when acquired, that is greater than three months and twelve months or less. These investments are classified as held-to-maturity and are carried at amortized cost, which approximates fair value due to the short period between purchase and maturity. Concentration of Credit Risk Cash and cash equivalents include amounts due from third party financial institutions, which from time to time, may be in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance limits. The Company is potentially exposed to a concentration of credit risk when cash and cash equivalent deposits in these financial institutions are in excess of FDIC limits. The Company considers the credit risk associated with these financial instruments to be minimal as cash and cash equivalents are held by financial institutions with high credit ratings and it has not historically sustained any credit losses associated with its cash and cash equivalents balances. In addition, the Company's cash and cash equivalents include money market accounts with Citizens Bank, N.A. and investments in U.S. government-backed securities held with Fidelity Investments. Fair Value of Financial Instruments ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, requires disclosure of the fair value of certain financial instruments. ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and enhances disclosures about fair value measurements. The valuation techniques utilized are based upon observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect internal market assumptions. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy: Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities. Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of assets or liabilities. The Company utilizes observable market inputs (quoted market prices) when measuring fair value whenever possible. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. See Note 9 - Fair Value Measurement for information regarding the fair value of certain financial assets. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) - (“AOCI”) In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company terminated its frozen retirement plans, which was the only AOCI activity. As a result, there was no remaining AOCI as of February 3, 2024. For the first three and nine months of fiscal 2023, other comprehensive income and reclassifications from AOCI was as follows:
in thousands |  | For the three months ended October 28, 2023 |  |  | For the nine months ended October 28, 2023 |
Balance at beginning of fiscal year |  | $ | (1,751 | ) |  | $ | (4,928 | )
Other comprehensive income before reclassifications, net of taxes |  |  | 14 |  |  |  | 43 |
Recognition of loss on retirement plan termination, net of taxes (1) |  |  | 31 |  |  |  | 3,111 |
Amounts reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income, net of taxes (2) |  |  | 35 |  |  |  | 103 |
Other comprehensive income for the period |  |  | 80 |  |  |  | 3,257 |
Balance at end of quarter |  | $ | (1,671 | ) |  | $ | (1,671 | )
(1) In connection with the Company's decision to terminate its frozen retirement plans, the Company completed a termination of its Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan ("SERP") in the third quarter of fiscal 2023 and recognized the loss in AOCI of $31,000, with no related tax effect. Results for the nine months ended October 28, 2023 also reflect the partial settlement of the Pension Plan which resulted in the recognition of $4.2 million loss on termination, or $3.1 million net of taxes. (2) Includes the amortization of the unrecognized loss on retirement plans, which was charged to “Selling, General and Administrative” Expense on the Consolidated Statements of Operations for all periods presented. The Company recognized expense of $47,000, or $35,000 net of taxes, for the three months ended October 28, 2023 and expense of $139,000, or $103,000 net of taxes, for the nine months ended October 28, 2023. Stock-based Compensation All share-based payments, including grants of employee stock options and restricted stock, are recognized as an expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations based on their fair values and vesting periods. The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model and requires the input of subjective assumptions. These assumptions include estimating the length of time employees will retain their vested stock options before exercising them (the “expected term”), the estimated volatility of the Company’s common stock price over the expected term and the number of options that will ultimately not complete their vesting requirements (“forfeitures”). The Company reviews its valuation assumptions at each grant date and, as a result, is likely to change its valuation assumptions used to value employee stock-based awards granted in future periods. The values derived from using the Black-Scholes model are recognized as an expense over the vesting period, net of estimated forfeitures. The estimation of stock-based awards that will ultimately vest requires judgment. Actual results and future changes in estimates may differ from the Company’s current estimates. There were no grants of stock options in the first nine months of fiscal 2024. For the first nine months of fiscal 2023, the fair value of each stock option grant was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model based on the assumptions in the table below as it relates to stock options granted.
|  | October 28, 2023 |
Expected volatility |  | 86.3% - 92.1% |
Risk-free interest rate |  | 3.71%-4.42% |
Expected term |  | 2.5 yrs. |
Dividend rate |  |  | — |
Weighted average fair value of options granted |  | $ | 3.24 |
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets The Company reviews its long-lived assets for events or changes in circumstances that might indicate the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. The Company’s judgment regarding the identification of impairment indicators is based on operational performance at the store level. Factors considered by the Company that could result in an impairment triggering event include significant changes in the use of assets, a current period operating or cash flow loss, underperformance of a store relative to historical or expected operating results, and an accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the construction of the long-lived store assets. The Company assesses the recoverability of the assets by determining whether the carrying value of such assets over their respective remaining lives can be recovered through projected undiscounted future cash flows. The model for undiscounted future cash flows includes assumptions, at the individual store level, with respect to expectations for future sales and gross margin rates as well as an estimate for occupancy costs used to estimate the fair value of the respective store’s operating lease right-of-use asset. The amount of impairment, if any, is measured based on projected discounted future cash flows using a discount rate reflecting the Company’s average cost of funds. There were no impairments or non-cash gains recognized in the first nine months of fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023. Advertising Costs The Company expenses in-store advertising costs as incurred. Creative production costs, if any, are expensed in the period in which the advertising is first aired, and media costs are expensed as incurred. Direct response advertising costs, if any, are expensed in the period in which the mailing occurs. Advertising expense, which is included in selling, general and administrative expenses, was $6.1 million and $7.5 million for third quarter of fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, respectively, and was $24.4 million and $21.5 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, respectively. Leases The Company determines if an arrangement contains a lease at the inception of a contract. Right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of the remaining future minimum lease payments, initial direct costs. Lease incentives are included in the value of the ROU assets. As the interest rate implicit in the Company’s leases is not readily determinable, the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate, based on information available at the lease measurement date, to determine the present value of future payments. The Company elected the lessee non-lease component separation practical expedient, which permits the Company to not separate non-lease components from the lease components to which they relate. The Company also made an accounting policy election that the recognition requirement of ASC 842 will not be applied to certain, if any, non-store leases, with a term of 12 months or less, recognizing those lease payments on a straight-line basis over the lease term. At November 2, 2024, the Company had no short-term leases. The Company’s store leases typically contain options that permit renewals for additional periods of up to five years each. In general, for store leases with an initial term of 10 years or more, the options to extend are not considered reasonably certain at lease commencement. For store leases with an initial term of 5 years, the Company evaluates each lease independently and, when the Company considers it reasonably certain that it will exercise an option to extend, the associated payment of that option will be included in the measurement of the ROU asset and lease liability. Renewal options are not included in the lease term for automobile and equipment leases because they are not considered reasonably certain of being exercised at lease commencement. Renewal options were not considered for the Company’s corporate headquarters and distribution center lease, which was entered into in 2006 and was for an initial 20-year term. At the end of the initial term, the Company will have the opportunity to extend this lease for six additional successive periods of five years. For store leases, the Company accounts for lease components and non-lease components as a single lease component. Certain store leases may require additional payments based on sales volume, as well as reimbursement for real estate taxes, common area maintenance and insurance, and are expensed as incurred as variable lease costs. Other store leases contain one periodic fixed lease payment that includes real estate taxes, common area maintenance and insurance. These fixed payments are considered part of the lease payment and included in the ROU assets and lease liabilities. Tenant allowances are included as an offset to the ROU asset and amortized as reductions to rent expense over the associated lease term. See Note 4, "Leases" for additional information. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements - Not Yet Adopted In July 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-03, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205), Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480), Equity (Topic 505), and Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 120, SEC Staff Announcement at the March 24, 2022 EITF Meeting, and Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 6.B, Accounting Series Release 280 - General Revision of Regulation S-X: Income or Loss Applicable to Common Stock, which amends or supersedes various SEC paragraphs within the Accounting Standards Codification to conform to past SEC announcements and guidance issued by the SEC. The ASU does not provide any new guidance, and as such, there is no transition effective date. ASU 2023-03 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements. In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendment in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative. ASU-2023-06 incorporates several disclosure and presentation requirements currently residing in the SEC Regulations S-X and S-K. The amendments will be applied prospectively and are effective when the SEC removes the related requirements from Regulations S-X or S-K. Any amendments the SEC does not remove by June 30, 2027 will not be effective. The ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements or related disclosures because the Company is currently subjected to the reporting requirements of Regulations S-X and S-K. In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280), which requires all public entities to provide enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The amendments in this ASU are to be applied retrospectively and are effective for our annual financial statements starting in fiscal 2024 and interim periods starting in fiscal 2025, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this accounting standard on our financial statements and anticipate expanding our segment reporting disclosures in accordance with this new standard. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740), which enhances transparency about income tax information through improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid and to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. This ASU will be effective in fiscal 2025, and allows for adoption on a prospective basis, with a retrospective option. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this accounting standard on our financial statements or related disclosures. In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40), which will require disclosure, in the notes to financial statements, of specified information about certain costs and expenses, including disclosure of amounts for (a) purchases of inventory, (b) employee compensation, (c) depreciation and (d) intangible asset amortization, included in each relevant expense caption. This ASU will be effective for our annual financial statements starting in fiscal 2027 and interim periods starting in fiscal 2028. We are currently evaluating the impact of this accounting standard on our financial statements or related disclosures. There were no other new accounting pronouncements, issued or effective during the first nine months of fiscal 2024, which had or are expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
