Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
Description of Business and Basis of Presentation | Note 1 – Description of Business and Basis of Presentation Nature of business — Kirkland’s, Inc. (the “Company”, “we”, “our” or “us”) is a specialty retailer of home décor and furnishings in the United States operating 329 stores in 35 states as of May 4, 2024, as well as an e-commerce website, www.kirklands.com, under the Kirkland’s Home brand. Principles of consolidation — The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of Kirkland’s, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Kirkland’s Stores, Inc., Kirkland’s DC, Inc., and Kirkland’s Texas, LLC. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Basis of presentation — The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and are presented in accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q and pursuant to the reporting and disclosure rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In the opinion of management, all adjustments, including normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 29, 2024. Seasonality — The results of the Company’s operations for the 13-week period ended May 4, 2024 are not indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or for the entire fiscal year due to seasonality factors. Fiscal year — The Company’s fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to January 31, resulting in years of either 52 or 53 weeks. Accordingly, fiscal 2024 represents the 52 weeks ending on February 1, 2025, and fiscal 2023 represents the 53 weeks ended on February 3, 2024. Reclassifications — Certain amounts in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the 13-week period ended April 29, 2023 in the operating activities section have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Income taxes payable or receivable is no longer material to be presented as a separate line item and has been reclassified into prepaid and other current assets and accrued expenses. Use of estimates — The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from the estimates and assumptions used. It should be understood that accounting measurements at interim dates inherently involve greater reliance on estimates than those at fiscal year-end. Changes in estimates are recognized in the period when new information becomes available to management. Areas where the nature of the estimate makes it reasonably possible that actual results could materially differ from amounts estimated include, but are not limited to, impairment assessments on long-lived assets, inventory reserves, self-insurance reserves and deferred tax asset valuation allowances. Going concern assessment and management’s plans — The Company’s revenues, results of operations and cash flows have been materially adversely impacted by strategic and macroeconomic factors during the last several fiscal quarters. The persistently challenging home furnishings retail environment, including reduced consumer spending in the category and increased price sensitivity, has significantly impacted the Company’s performance and liquidity levels. During the 13-week period ended May 4, 2024, net sales decreased approximately $5.1 million compared to the 13-week period ended April 29, 2023. This decline drove gross margin and operating loss to be worse than the Company’s expectations. For the 13-week period ended May 4, 2024, the Company reported a net loss of $8.8 million and net cash used in operating activities of $13.7 million. When conditions and events, in the aggregate, raise substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, management evaluates the mitigating effect of its plans to determine if it is probable that the plans will be effectively implemented within the assessment period and, when implemented, will mitigate the relevant conditions and events to alleviate substantial doubt. The Company’s plans are focused on improving its operating results and liquidity through sales growth and cost reductions. Subsequent to May 4, 2024, the Company decided to implement expense reductions to streamline its cost structure and improve its liquidity profile. The Company believes these actions are necessary as part of improving its profitability and liquidity trajectory, while minimizing any disruption to the Company’s focus on its strategic initiatives and the overall customer experience. The cost savings initiatives include a reduction in corporate overhead, store payroll, marketing and third-party technology expenses. The Company expects to realize approximately $6 million of savings in fiscal 2024 and estimates approximately $7 million in ongoing annual pre-tax savings from these initiatives. In addition, the Company retained an investment banking firm specializing in consumer-facing companies to serve as financial advisor to the Board of Directors in the pursuit and evaluation of potential strategic opportunities to support the Company and its initiatives. The Company has not set a deadline or definitive timetable for the completion of the strategic alternatives review process, and there can be no assurance that this process will result in any particular outcome. The Company does not intend to comment further regarding the review of strategic alternatives until it determines disclosure is necessary or advisable. The Company believes these plans will result in adequate cash flows to support its ongoing operations and to meet its covenant requirements for one year following the date these financial statements are issued. However, the Company cannot provide any assurance that its efforts will be successful, and if the Company encounters unforeseen circumstances that place further constraints on its capital resources, management will be required to take various additional measures to conserve liquidity. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
