Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
Nature of Business | 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 325 stores in 35 states as of November 2, 2024, as well as an e-commerce website, www.kirklands.com, under the Kirkland’s Home brand.
Principles of consolidation | 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 | 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 | Seasonality — The results of the Company’s operations for the 13-week and 39-week periods ended November 2, 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 | 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 | Reclassifications — Certain amounts in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the 39-week period ended October 28, 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 | 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.
Strategic partnership with Beyond, Inc. ("Beyond") | Strategic partnership with Beyond, Inc. (“Beyond”) — The Company entered into a strategic partnership with Beyond on October 21, 2024, with the purpose of enabling cohesive collaboration between the companies, leveraging the strengths of each business to drive sustainable profitable growth and value for all stakeholders. As part of this partnership with Beyond, the companies entered into a $17 million term loan credit agreement (the “Beyond Credit Agreement”), an $8 million subscription agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”), a seven-year collaboration agreement (the “Collaboration Agreement”) and a trademark license agreement (the “Trademark License Agreement”). Proceeds of $17 million from the Beyond Credit Agreement, in the form of an $8.5 million non-convertible term loan (“Non-Convertible Term Loan”) and an $8.5 million convertible term loan (“Convertible Term Loan”) were used by Kirkland's to repay its existing FILO term loan (“FILO Term Loan”), including prepayment fees and transaction expenses, and to reduce borrowings under Kirkland's existing revolving credit facility. The $8 million equity purchase under the Subscription Agreement and the mandatory conversion of the Convertible Term Loan are both subject to the approval of Kirkland's shareholders at the Company’s special meeting of shareholders on December 23, 2024 (“Special Shareholders Meeting”) in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rules and other customary closing conditions. For further discussion on the agreements with Beyond, refer to “Note 5 — Fair Value Measures”, “Note 9 — Long-Term Debt” and “Note 10 — Subscription Agreement”.
Collaboration Agreement fees | Collaboration Agreement fees — Under the terms of the Collaboration Agreement, the Company gave Beyond the right to receive a percentage of future revenues generated by Kirkland’s over the life of the Collaboration Agreement. The sale of a percentage of Kirkland’s future revenue to Beyond has been accounted for as debt financing, as the Company has significant continuing involvement in the generation of the related cash flows. As a result, the Company recorded the proceeds from these fees as debt, which will be accreted in interest expense using the effective interest rate method over the life of the arrangement. The debt was initially recorded at its fair value, net of allocated discount and deferred costs. The liability and the related interest expense for these fees are based on the Company’s current estimates of future payments expected to be made over the life of the Collaboration Arrangement. The Company will periodically assess the expected payments using internal projections. To the extent our future estimates of payments are greater or less than previous estimates, the Company will prospectively recognize related non-cash interest expense. For further discussion refer to “Note 5 — Fair Value Measures” and “Note 9 — Long-Term Debt”.
Trademark License Agreement | Trademark License Agreement — The Trademark License Agreement with Beyond grants Kirkland’s the exclusive license to operate small format, neighborhood brick-and-mortar retail stores and “Shops-within-a-Shop” locations under licensed Beyond-owned trademarks. Kirkland’s will pay royalty fees as a percentage of net store sales generated under the Bed Bath & Beyond banner during the term of the Collaboration Agreement with that rate increasing as a percentage of net sales after the Collaboration Agreement has terminated, if the locations are still operating. There is also a fixed guaranteed minimum royalty fee during the term of the Collaboration Agreement that takes effect after the opening of the first Bed Bath & Beyond retail store. There were no royalty fees during the 13-week period ended November 2, 2024.
Going concern assessment and management's plans | 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. Operating loss and negative cash flows from operations continue to reduce the Company’s liquidity levels. For the 39-week period ended November 2, 2024, the Company reported a net loss of $31.0 million and net cash used in operating activities of $39.0 million compared to a net loss of $37.9 million and net cash used in operating activities of $42.7 million in the prior year period. 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, cost reductions and additional financing. Throughout fiscal 2024, the Company implemented 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 included a reduction in corporate overhead, store payroll, marketing and third-party technology expenses. In addition, through the strategic partnership with Beyond, the Company received proceeds of $17 million from the Beyond Credit Agreement, which were used by the Company to repay the outstanding balance on the FILO Term Loan, to pay prepayment fees and transaction expenses, and to reduce borrowings under its existing revolving credit facility. If the $8 million equity purchase under the Subscription Agreement and the mandatory conversion of the Convertible Term Loan are both approved at the Special Shareholders Meeting, the Company will receive additional proceeds of $8 million, and the Convertible Term Loan will convert to equity. If these provisions are not approved, the Company will consider additional cost reductions and financing options. The Company believes these plans and arrangements 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 plans 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. Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments or charges that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern, such as charges related to impairment of the Company’s assets, the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities or other similar adjustments.
