INTRODUCTORY NOTE

On November 27, 2013, Vince Holding Corp. ("VHC" or the "Company"), previously known as Apparel Holding Corp., closed an initial public offering ("IPO") of its common stock and completed a series of restructuring transactions (the "Restructuring Transactions") through which Kellwood Holding, LLC acquired the non-Vince businesses, which included Kellwood Company, LLC, from the Company. The Company continues to own and operate the Vince business, which includes V Opco, LLC (formerly, Vince, LLC) ("V Opco").

Prior to the IPO and the Restructuring Transactions, VHC was a diversified apparel company operating a broad portfolio of fashion brands, which included the Vince business. As a result of the IPO and Restructuring Transactions, the non-Vince businesses were separated from the Vince business, and the stockholders immediately prior to the consummation of the Restructuring Transactions (the "Pre-IPO Stockholders") (through their ownership of Kellwood Holding, LLC) retained the full ownership and control of the non-Vince businesses.

On April 21, 2023, V Opco, the Company's wholly owned indirect subsidiary, entered into an Intellectual Property Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Asset Purchase Agreement"), by and among V Opco, ABG-Vince, LLC (f/k/a ABG-Viking, LLC) ("ABG Vince"), a newly formed indirect subsidiary of Authentic Brands Group, LLC, the Company and ABG Intermediate Holdings 2 LLC, whereby V Opco sold its intellectual property assets related to the business operated under the Vince brand to ABG Vince at closing (the "Asset Sale"). The Company closed the Asset Sale on May 25, 2023.

On January 22, 2025, P180 Vince Acquisition Co. ("P180"), a subsidiary of P180, Inc., a venture focused on accelerating growth and profitability in the luxury apparel sector, acquired a majority stake in the Company (the “P180 Acquisition”) from affiliates of Sun Capital Partners, Inc. (collectively, “Sun Capital”).

For purposes of this Annual Report on Form 10-K (this "Annual Report"), the "Company," "we," and "our," refer to Vince Holding Corp. and our wholly owned subsidiaries, including Vince Intermediate Holding, LLC ("Vince Intermediate") and V Opco. References to "Vince," "Rebecca Taylor" or "Parker" refer only to the referenced brands. References to "Kellwood" refer, as applicable, to Kellwood Holding, LLC and its consolidated subsidiaries (including Kellwood Company, LLC) or the operations of the non-Vince businesses after giving effect to the Restructuring Transactions and prior to the Kellwood Sale.

ITEM 1. B USINESS.

Overview

We are a global retail company that operates the Vince brand women's and men's ready to wear business. Previously, the Company also owned and operated the Rebecca Taylor and Parker brands until the sale of the respective intellectual property was completed, as discussed below under "Recent Developments". We serve our customers through a variety of channels that reinforce the brand images.

We have a select number of wholesale partners who account for a significant portion of our net sales. In fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, sales to one wholesale partner, Nordstrom Inc., accounted for more than ten percent of the Company's net sales. These sales represented 26% of fiscal 2024 and 20% of fiscal 2023 net sales, respectively.

We design our products in the U.S. and source the vast majority of our products from contract manufacturers outside the U.S., primarily in Asia.

The Company operates on a fiscal calendar widely used by the retail industry that results in a given fiscal year consisting of a 52 or 53-week period ending on the Saturday closest to January 31.

The Transaction was completed pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”), dated May 3, 2024, entered into between V Opco and Nova Acquisitions, LLC.

On January 22, 2025, P180 Vince Acquisition Co., a subsidiary of P180, Inc., a venture focused on accelerating growth and profitability in the luxury apparel sector, acquired a majority stake in the Company (the “P180 Acquisition”) from affiliates of Sun Capital Partners, Inc. (collectively, “Sun Capital”).

The Brand

Vince

Vince Holding Corp. is a global retail company that operates the Vince brand women’s and men’s ready to wear business. Vince, established in 2002, is a leading global luxury apparel and accessories brand best known for creating elevated yet understated pieces for every day effortless style. As of February 1, 2025, we operate 43 full-price retail stores, 14 outlet stores, the e-commerce site, vince.com, and the subscription service Vince Unfold, vinceunfold.com. Vince is also available through premium wholesale channels globally.

Our wholesale business is comprised of sales to major department stores and specialty stores in the U.S. and in select international markets. We have distribution arrangements with a small number of wholesale partners for non-licensed product which has improved profitability in the wholesale business and enables us to focus on other areas of growth for the brand, particularly in the direct-to-consumer business. We continue to collaborate with our wholesale partners in various areas, including merchandising and logistics to build a more profitable and focused wholesale business.

Our direct-to-consumer business includes our company-operated retail and outlet stores and our e-commerce business. During fiscal 2024, we closed six net retail stores. The direct-to-consumer business also includes our e-commerce website, vince.com, and our subscription service, Vince Unfold, vinceunfold.com.

Net (closed) opened |  | (6 | ) |  |  | (4 | )
End of fiscal year |  | 57 |  |  |  | 63 |

Rebecca Taylor and Parker

Rebecca Taylor and Parker consisted of our operations to distribute Rebecca Taylor and Parker brand products to major department and specialty stores in the U.S. and select international markets and directly to the consumer through their own branded e-commerce platforms, our Rebecca Taylor retail and outlet stores and through our subscription service, Rebecca Taylor RNTD. On September 12, 2022, the Company announced its decision to wind down the Rebecca Taylor business. On December 22, 2022, the Company's indirectly wholly owned subsidiary, Rebecca Taylor, Inc., completed the sale of its intellectual property and certain related ancillary assets to RT IPCO, LLC, an affiliate of Ramani Group. Substantially all Rebecca Taylor inventory was liquidated as of January 28, 2023. Additionally, all Rebecca Taylor retail and outlet stores operated by the Company were closed as of January 28, 2023 and the e-commerce site operated by the Company ceased in December 2022. A nominal sale of all outstanding shares of Rebecca Taylor, Inc. to Nova Acquisitions, LLC was completed on May 3, 2024. On February 17, 2023, the Company's indirectly wholly owned subsidiary, Parker Lifestyle, LLC, completed the sale of its intellectual property and certain related ancillary assets to Parker IP Co. LLC, an affiliate of BCI Brands.

Business Segments

We serve our customers through a variety of channels that reinforce the brand images. Our diversified channel strategy allows us to introduce our products to customers through multiple distribution points that are presented in two reportable segments: Vince Wholesale and Vince Direct-to-consumer. As a result of the completion of the wind down and sale, and the determination by the CODM that Parker would not be considered in the Company’s future operating plans, Rebecca Taylor and Parker is no longer an operating segment of the Company.

Total net sales |  | $ | 293,452 |  |  |  | 100.0 | % |  | $ | 292,890 |  |  |  | 100.0 | %

Our Vince Wholesale segment is comprised of sales to major department stores and specialty stores in the U.S. and in select international markets. Until the Asset Sale closed, our Vince Wholesale segment also included our licensing business related to our licensing arrangements for our women's and men's footwear line, as well as soft accessories and cold weather goods.

Our Vince Direct-to-consumer segment includes our Vince company-operated retail and outlet stores, our Vince e-commerce business and our subscription service, Vince Unfold.

Products

We believe that the Vince brand's differentiated design aesthetic and strong attention to detail and fit allow us to maintain premium pricing, and that the combination of quality and value positions us as an everyday luxury brand that encourages repeat purchases among our customers.

The Vince women's collection includes seasonal collections of luxurious cashmere sweaters, silk blouses, a leather and suede collection that encompasses all classifications, and jackets, dresses, skirts, pants, t-shirts, footwear, outerwear, and accessories. The Vince men's collection includes cashmere sweaters, woven shirts, core and fashion pants, blazers, outerwear, footwear and accessories.

Design and Merchandising

Our creative team is focused on developing and implementing the design direction for the Vince brand. Our design efforts are supported by well-established product development and production teams. We believe continued collaboration between design and merchandising will ensure we respond to consumer preferences and market trends with new innovative product offerings while maintaining the brand's fashion foundation.

Marketing, Advertising and Public Relations

We use marketing, advertising and public relations as critical tools to deliver a consistent and compelling message to consumers. The message and marketing strategies of the Vince brand are cultivated by dedicated creative, design, marketing, visual merchandising, and public relations teams. These teams work closely together to develop and execute campaigns that appeal to both our core and aspirational customers.

To execute our marketing strategies, we engage in a wide range of campaign tactics that include traditional media (such as direct mail, print advertising, cooperative advertising with wholesale partners and outdoor advertising), digital media (such as email, search, social, and display) and experiential campaigns (such as events) to drive traffic, brand awareness, conversion and ultimately sales across all channels. Our marketing strategies also include utilizing a customer data platform from which we are able to achieve improved segmentation and personalization for an enhanced customer experience. In addition, we use social platforms such as Instagram and Facebook as we further invest in leveraging micro and macro influencer networks to increase brand awareness, engage customers and create excitement about loyalty towards the Vince brand. The visits to vince.com also provide an opportunity to grow our customer base and communicate directly with our customers both on line and in stores.

See Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors — "Risks Related to Our Business and Industry — We may not be able to realize the benefits of our strategic initiatives."

Our public relations team conducts a wide variety of press activities to reinforce the brand image and create excitement around the Vince brand. Our apparel has appeared in the pages of major fashion magazines such as Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, Elle, InStyle, GQ, Esquire and WSJ. Well-known trend setters in entertainment and fashion are also regularly seen wearing the brand.

Sourcing and Manufacturing

We do not own or operate any manufacturing facilities. We contract for the purchase of finished goods with manufacturers who are responsible for the entire manufacturing process, including the purchase of piece goods and trim. Although we do not have long-term written contracts with manufacturers, we have long-standing relationships with a diverse base of vendors which we believe to be mutually satisfactory. We work with more than 30 manufacturers across 12 countries, with 66% of our products produced in China in fiscal 2024. For cost and control purposes, we contract with select third-party vendors in the U.S. to produce a small portion of our merchandise.

All of our garments are produced according to our specifications, and we require that all of our manufacturers adhere to strict regulatory compliance and standards of conduct. Our vendors' factories are monitored by our production team to ensure quality control, and they are monitored by independent third-party inspectors we employ for compliance with local manufacturing standards and regulations on an annual basis. We also monitor our vendors' manufacturing facilities regularly, providing technical assistance and performing in-line and final audits to ensure the highest possible quality.

Distribution Facilities

As of February 1, 2025, we operated out of three distribution centers, one located in the U.S., one in Hong Kong and one in Belgium.

Our warehouse in the U.S., located in California, is operated by a third-party logistics provider and includes dedicated space to fulfilling orders to support our wholesale partners, retail locations and e-commerce business and utilizes a warehouse management system that is fully customer and vendor compliant.

Our warehouse in Hong Kong is operated by a third-party logistics provider and supports our wholesale orders for international customers located primarily in Asia and the Middle East.

Our warehouse in Belgium is operated by a third-party logistics provider and supports our Vince wholesale orders for international customers located primarily in Europe and our Vince UK store.

We believe we have sufficient capacity in our domestic and international distribution facilities to support our current and projected business.

Information Systems

During fiscal 2021, we completed the rollout of a new point of sale ("POS") system for the Vince brand to expand our omni-channel capabilities to promote direct-to-consumer growth and enhance the customer engagement and shopping experience. During fiscal 2022, we completed the implementation of a customer data platform and the front-end re-platforming of our Vince e-commerce website. In fiscal 2023 and 2024, we improved our cybersecurity environment through the implementation of true end-point protection and improved network infrastructure. Our continued strategy includes investing in customer facing technologies to further expand our omni-channel capabilities and to further consolidate systems over time to create operational efficiencies and to achieve a common platform across the Company.

See Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors — "Risks Related to Our Information Technology and Security — We are continuing to adopt, optimize and improve our information technology systems, processes and functions. If these systems, processes, and functions do not operate successfully, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be materially harmed" and Part II, Item 9A. "Controls and Procedures."

Seasonality

The apparel and fashion industry in which we operate is cyclical and, consequently, our revenues are affected by general economic conditions and the seasonal trends characteristic to the apparel and fashion industry. Purchases of apparel are sensitive to a number of factors that influence the level of consumer spending, including economic conditions and the level of disposable consumer income, consumer debt, interest rates and consumer confidence as well as the impact of adverse weather conditions. In addition, fluctuations in the amount of sales in any fiscal quarter are affected by the timing of seasonal wholesale shipments and other events affecting direct-to-consumer sales. As such, the financial results for any particular quarter may not be indicative of results for the fiscal year. We expect such seasonality to continue.

Competition

We face strong competition in each of the product categories and markets in which we compete on the basis of style, quality, price, and brand recognition. Some of our competitors have achieved significant recognition for their brand names or have substantially greater financial, marketing, distribution and other resources compared to us. However, we believe that we have established a sustainable and distinct position in the current marketplace, driven by a product assortment that combines classic and fashion-forward styling, and a pricing strategy that offers customers accessible luxury.

Human Capital

As of February 1, 2025, we had 578 employees, of which 344 were employed in our company-operated retail stores. Except for 8 employees in France, who are covered by collective bargaining agreements pursuant to French law, none of our employees are currently covered by a collective bargaining agreement and we believe our employee relations are good.

Our key human capital measures include associate turnover, pay equity, and professional development as well as safety. We have programs in place to provide associates with feedback on performance and professional development, including our formal annual performance review process. We frequently benchmark our compensation and benefits practices against comparable peers and assess them, so we continue to attract and retain talent throughout our organization.

We strive to maintain an inclusive environment free from discrimination of any kind. Associates have multiple ways to report inappropriate behavior, including through a confidential hotline. All reports of inappropriate behavior are promptly investigated with appropriate action taken to stop such behavior.

Trademarks and Licensing

On April 21, 2023, V Opco, the Company's wholly owned indirect subsidiary, entered into the Asset Purchase Agreement, by and among V Opco, ABG Vince, a newly formed indirect subsidiary of Authentic Brands Group, LLC, the Company and ABG Intermediate Holdings 2 LLC, whereby V Opco sold its intellectual property assets related to the business operated under the Vince brand to ABG Vince at closing. The Company closed the Asset Sale on May 25, 2023 (the “Closing”).

On May 25, 2023, in connection with the Closing, V Opco and ABG Vince entered into a License Agreement (the “License Agreement”), which provides V Opco with a license to use the Licensed Property in the Territory, which is defined as the United States, Canada, Andorra, Austria, Germany, Switzerland, Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg, France, Monaco, Liechtenstein, Italy, San Marino, Vatican City, Iceland, Norway, Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Spain, Portugal, Greece, Republic of Cyprus (excluding Northern Cyprus), United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, Mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, Singapore, Japan and Korea (the "Core Territory"), together with all other territories (the "Option Territory," together with the Core Territory, the

8

“Territory”), to the Approved Accounts (each as defined in the License Agreement). The Option Territory may be changed unilaterally by ABG Vince at any time after the effective date of the License Agreement. The License Agreement also provides V Opco with a license to operate the Vince e-commerce site, www.vince.com, as well as to operate all retail stores in the Territory. V Opco is required to operate and maintain a minimum of 45 Retail Stores and Shop-in-Shops in the Territory.

Additionally, the License Agreement provides V Opco with a license to use the Licensed Property in the Territory to design, manufacture, promote, market, distribute, and sell ready-to-wear Sportswear Products and Outerwear Products (the "Core Products") and Baby Layettes (the "Option Products," together with the Core Products, the "Licensed Products"), which Option Products may be changed unilaterally by ABG Vince at any time after the effective date of the License Agreement.

The initial term of the License Agreement began on May 25, 2023, the date on which the Closing actually occurred, and ends at the end of the Company's 2032 fiscal year, unless sooner terminated pursuant to the terms of the License Agreement. V Opco has the option to renew the License Agreement on the terms set forth in the License Agreement for eight consecutive periods of ten years each, unless the License Agreement is sooner terminated pursuant to its terms or V Opco is in material breach of the License Agreement and such breach has not been cured within the specified cure period. V Opco may elect not to renew the term for a renewal term.

V Opco is required to pay ABG Vince a royalty on net sales of Licensed Products and committed to an annual guaranteed minimum royalty of $11,000 and annual minimum net sales as specified in the License Agreement, in each case, during the initial term of the License Agreement, except that the guaranteed minimum royalty and minimum net sales for the first contract year during the initial term will be prorated to the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending at the end of the Company's 2023 fiscal year. The annual guaranteed minimum royalty and annual minimum net sales for each subsequent renewal term will be the greater of (i) a percentage as set forth in the License Agreement of the guaranteed minimum net royalty or the minimum net sales (as applicable) of the immediately preceding contract year, and (ii) the average of actual Royalties (as defined in the License Agreement, with respect to the guaranteed minimum royalty) or actual Net Sales (as defined in the License Agreement, with respect to the annual minimum net sales) during certain years as set forth in the License Agreement of the preceding initial term or renewal term (as applicable). V Opco is required to pay royalties comprised of a low single digit percentage of net sales arising from retail and e-commerce sales of Licensed Products and a mid single digit percentage of net sales arising from wholesale sales of such Licensed Products. In the event that the annual guaranteed minimum royalty paid to ABG Vince in any given contract year is greater than the actual royalties earned by ABG Vince in the same contract year, the difference between the royalty actually earned and the annual guaranteed minimum royalty paid is credited for the next two contract years against any amount of royalty earned by ABG Vince in excess of the annual guaranteed minimum royalty paid during each such contract year, if any.

ITEM 1A. RI SK FACTORS.

The following risk factors should be carefully considered when evaluating our business in addition to the forward-looking statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report. See “Disclosures Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.” Any of the following factors could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently view as immaterial may also materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. All amounts disclosed are in thousands except shares, per share amounts, percentages, stores, and number of leases.

Risks Related to Our Business and Industry

Changes to and unpredictability in the trade policies and tariffs imposed by the U.S. government and the governments of other nations could materially affect our financial condition, liquidity and results of operations.

The United States recently announced changes to U.S. trade policy, which included increasing tariffs on imports, in some cases significantly, and potentially renegotiating or terminating existing trade agreements. For example, in April 2025, the United States announced a new universal baseline tariff of 10%, plus additional country-specific tariffs for select trading partners, including a 145%

9

tariff on substantially all products of Chinese origin, on all U.S. imports. These tariffs significantly raise the per-unit cost of our products. While to date our responses have included further diversification of our sourcing base, strategic price increases, collaboration with partners across our network to help absorb increased costs, measured spending across the organization, and other cost-mitigation measures, the situation surrounding the recently implemented tariffs remains uncertain and continues to evolve on a daily or weekly basis as ongoing uncertainty relating to international trade policy and regulations as well as trade disputes, protectionist measures, and threat of a trade war persist. Accordingly, the overall impact on our business will depend on multiple factors, including the duration and potential expansion of current tariffs, future changes to tariff rates, scope, or enforcement, retaliatory measures by impacted exporting countries, inflationary effects and broader macroeconomic responses, changes to consumer purchasing behavior, and the effectiveness of our responses in managing these challenges. Because we cannot predict future trade policy in the United States and other countries, there is no assurance that we will be able to fully mitigate the financial and competitive impacts related to tariffs or other trade restrictions, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, liquidity and financial results.

Our ability to continue to have the liquidity necessary to service our debt, meet contractual payment obligations, including royalty payments under the License Agreement (as defined below), and fund our operations, particularly in light of the recently implemented tariffs, depends on many factors, including our ability to generate sufficient cash flow from operations, maintain adequate availability under our 2023 Revolving Credit Facility (as defined below) or obtain other financing.

Our ability to timely service our indebtedness, meet contractual payment obligations, including royalty payments under the License Agreement, and to fund our operations, particularly in light of the recently implemented tariffs, will depend on our ability to generate sufficient cash, either through cash flows from operations, borrowing availability under the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility or other financing, and our ability to access the capital markets if other sources of financing are unavailable on acceptable terms. While we expect to meet our monthly Excess Availability (as defined in the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility Agreement) covenant and believe that our other sources of liquidity will generate sufficient cash flows to meet our obligations for the next twelve months, the foregoing expectation is dependent on a number of factors, including, among others, our ability to generate sufficient cash flow from operations, our ongoing ability to manage our operating obligations, the ability of our partners to satisfy their payment obligations to us when due, the results of any future inventory valuations and the potential borrowing restrictions imposed by our lenders based on their credit judgment, all of which could be significantly and negatively impacted by the recently implemented and new retaliatory and/or reciprocal tariffs, as well as changing trade policies between the U.S. and its trading partners, in addition to other macroeconomic factors. Any such negative impact could materially and negatively impact our borrowing capacity. In the event that we are unable to timely service our debt, meet other contractual payment obligations or fund our other liquidity needs, we may need to refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness before maturity, seek waivers of or amendments to our contractual obligations for payment, reduce or delay scheduled expansions and capital expenditures, liquidate inventory through additional discounting, sell material assets or operations or seek other financing opportunities. There can be no assurance that these options would be readily available to us and our inability to address our liquidity needs could materially and adversely affect our operations and jeopardize our business, financial condition and results of operations, including a default under the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility which could result in all amounts outstanding under such facility becoming immediately due and payable. See “— Changes to and unpredictability in the trade policies and tariffs imposed by the U.S. government and the governments of other nations could materially affect our financial condition and results of operations.”

General economic conditions in the U.S. and other parts of the world, including a weakening of the economy and restricted credit markets, can affect consumer confidence and consumer spending patterns.

The success of our operations depends on consumer spending. Consumer spending is impacted by a number of factors, including actual and perceived economic conditions affecting disposable consumer income, customer traffic within shopping and selling environments, business conditions, interest rates and availability of credit and tax rates in the general economy and in the international, regional and local markets in which our products are sold, including those resulting from inflation and other macroeconomic pressures in the United States and the global economy, particularly in light of the financial impacts of recently implemented and new retaliatory and/or reciprocal tariffs, as well as changing trade policies between the U.S. and its trading partners (including rising interest rates, fears of recession and continued market volatility and instability in the banking sector), health epidemics or pandemics, climate change, catastrophic events, such as war (including the armed conflicts between Ukraine and Russia and in the Middle East and the related governmental and non-governmental global responses to such conflict), terrorist attacks, civil unrest, and other acts of violence. A worsening of the economy may negatively affect consumer and wholesale purchases of our products and could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial conditions.

Our operations are restricted by our credit facilities.

Our credit facility contains significant restrictive covenants. The 2023 Revolving Credit Facility includes covenants that may impair our financing and operational flexibility and make it difficult for us to react to market conditions and satisfy our ongoing capital needs and unanticipated cash requirements.

10

Specifically, such covenants significantly restrict our ability and, if applicable, the ability of our subsidiaries to, among other things: incur additional debt; make certain investments and acquisitions; enter into certain types of transactions with affiliates; use assets as security in other transactions; pay dividends; sell certain assets or merge with or into other companies; guarantee the debt of others; enter into new lines of businesses; make capital expenditures; prepay, redeem, or exchange our debt; and form any joint ventures or subsidiary investments.

Our ability to comply with the covenants and other terms of our debt obligations, particularly in light of the financial impacts of recently implemented and new retaliatory and/or reciprocal tariffs, as well as changing trade policies between the U.S. and its trading partners, will depend on our future operating performance. If we fail to comply with such covenants and terms, and are unable to cure such failure under the terms of our credit facilities, if applicable, we would be required to obtain additional waivers from our lenders to maintain compliance with our debt obligations. If we are unable to obtain any necessary waivers and the debt is accelerated, a material adverse effect on our financial condition and future operating performance would likely result.

We may be unable to improve our profitability.

We have enhanced our focus on driving profitability through disciplined inventory management, lower promotional activity, a pullback in the off-price channel, an improved gross margin profile and an optimized expense structure, including through our transformation program. However, our profitability is impacted by multiple factors, including royalty payments under the License Agreement as well as macroeconomic factors. In particular, in light of the financial impacts of recently implemented and new retaliatory and/or reciprocal tariffs, as well as changing trade policies between the U.S. and its trading partners, our profitability could be significantly and adversely impacted. See “— Changes to and unpredictability in the trade policies and tariffs imposed by the U.S. government and the governments of other nations could materially affect our financial condition and results of operations.” As a result, there can be no assurance that we will continue to be successful in driving margin expansion and profitability to the extent required to positively impact our financial results and our profitability may not improve as intended.

A substantial portion of our revenue is derived from a small number of large wholesale partners, and the loss of, or other changes with, any of these wholesale partners could substantially reduce our total revenue.

We historically had and continue to have a small number of wholesale partners who account for a significant portion of our net sales. Our consolidated net sales to the full-price, off-price and e-commerce operations of our largest wholesale partner comprised 26% of our total revenue for fiscal 2024. We do not have formal written agreements with any of our wholesale partners and purchases generally occur on an order-by-order basis. A decision by any of our major wholesale partners, whether motivated by marketing strategy, competitive conditions, financial difficulties or otherwise, to significantly decrease the amount of merchandise purchased from us, or to change their manner of doing business with us, could substantially reduce our revenue and have a material adverse effect on our profitability. Furthermore, the foregoing could be exacerbated by the financial impacts on our wholesale partners of recently implemented and new retaliatory and/or reciprocal tariffs, as well as changing trade policies between the U.S. and its trading partners.

In addition, due to the concentration of and/or ownership changes in our wholesale partner base, our results of operations could be adversely affected if any of these wholesale partners fails to satisfy its payment obligations to us when due or no longer takes part in the distribution arrangements. Moreover, continued consolidation in the retail industry could further decrease the number of, or concentrate, our wholesale partner base, and financial difficulties of one of our major customers could result in reduced business and higher credit risk with respect to that customer. All of these changes could also decrease our opportunities in the market and decrease our negotiating strength with our wholesale partners. Furthermore, under the License Agreement, ABG Vince may remove any customer account that was pre-approved at the time of the closing of the Asset Sale if it believes using its good faith, commercially reasonable judgment, that such account is no longer consistent with the brand positioning for the Licensed Property or reject at its sole good faith discretion any new customer account we submit for its approval. If we lose any of our existing wholesale partners as a result of ABG Vince's decision to remove them, or if we are unable to expand our wholesale partnership or any addition of new wholesale partners is rejected by ABG Vince, our results of operations could be significantly and negatively impacted. These factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and operating results.

If we are unable to accurately forecast customer demand for our products, our results of operations could be materially impacted.

We stock our stores, and provide inventory to our wholesale partners, based on our or their estimates of future demand for particular products. Our inventory management and planning team determines the number of pieces of each product that we will order from our manufacturers based upon past sales of similar products, sales trend information and anticipated demand at our suggested retail prices. Our ability to accurately forecast demand for our products could be affected by many factors, including an increase or decrease in demand for our products or for products of our competitors, product introductions by competitors, unanticipated changes in general market conditions (including the recently implemented tariffs as discussed below), and weakening of economic conditions or consumer confidence in future economic conditions. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to match supply with demand in all cases in the future, to produce sufficient levels of desirable product or to forecast demand accurately. In particular, the financial and competitive impacts resulting from recently implemented and new retaliatory and/or reciprocal tariffs, as well as changing trade

11

policies between the U.S. and its trading partners, could significantly impact our ability to procure desirable products in appropriate categories to meet consumer demand or at prices that are satisfactory to customers. If we fail to accurately forecast customer demand, we may experience excess inventory levels or a shortage of products. Inventory levels in excess of customer demand may result in inventory write-downs or write-offs and the sale of excess inventory at discounted prices, which would negatively impact our gross margin, as was the case in fiscal 2022. Conversely, if we underestimate customer demand for our products, our manufacturers may not be able to deliver products to meet our requirements, and this could harm our business. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully manage our inventory at a level appropriate for future customer demand.

The failure to maintain our license agreement relating to the Vince brand would cause us to lose all our revenues.

On May 25, 2023, V Opco, the Company's wholly owned indirect subsidiary, sold all its intellectual property assets related to the business operated under the Vince brand to ABG Vince, an indirect subsidiary of Authentic Brands Group, LLC (“Authentic”), pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, entered into by and among V Opco, ABG Vince, the Company and ABG Intermediate Holdings 2 LLC. Simultaneously with the Asset Sale, V Opco entered into a license agreement (as amended from time to time, the “License Agreement”) with ABG Vince which provides us with a license to use the Licensed Property in the Territory (as defined in the License Agreement) in the Territory, which is defined as the United States, Canada, Andorra, Austria, Germany, Switzerland, Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg, France, Monaco, Liechtenstein, Italy, San Marino, Vatican City, Iceland, Norway, Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Spain, Portugal, Greece, Republic of Cyprus (excluding Northern Cyprus), United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, Mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, Singapore, Japan and Korea (the “Core Territory”), together with all other territories (the “Option Territory,” together with the Core Territory, the “Territory”), which Option Territory may be changed unilaterally by ABG Vince at any time after the effective date of the License Agreement. Additionally, we may use in the Territory, the Licensed Property in the Territory to design, manufacture, promote, market, distribute, and sell ready-to-wear sportswear products and outerwear products (the “Core Products”) and home décor and baby layettes (the “Option Products,” together with the Core Products, the “Licensed Products”), which Option Products may be changed unilaterally by ABG Vince at any time after the effective date of the License Agreement. The License Agreement has an initial term of ten years with eight options to renew for a ten-year period each.

Our revenues are generated solely from sales of products pursuant to the license granted under the License Agreement. We are required under the License Agreement, among other things, to achieve specified minimum net sales, make specified royalty payments, spend specified advertising and promotion expenditures, and maintain a minimum number of retail stores. If we do not satisfy any of the material requirements of the License Agreement, ABG Vince has the right to terminate the license or not renew the License Agreement. The failure to maintain or renew the License Agreement will cause us to lose all our revenues and have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

Our business is impacted by ABG Vince's expansion of the Vince brand into other categories and territories.

Under the License Agreement, ABG Vince may produce and sell Vince products other than the Licensed Products and operate the Vince brand in Option Territories into which it may decide to enter in the future. ABG Vince may do so by granting additional licenses to other third parties. For example, in August 2023, ABG Vince granted to a third party licensee a license to use the Licensed Property in the Territory to manufacture and distribute men’s tailored clothing and accessories across the US and Canada. We are unable to control the business strategies of ABG Vince relating to the expansion of the Vince brand outside of the license granted to us under the License Agreement, including how those strategies impact our own business strategies, the quality of products produced by other Vince brand licensees as well as how the overall Vince brand image may evolve. If there is a change in the parameters of the Vince brand's design, pricing, distribution, target market or competitive set as a result of the brand's expansion into other categories and territories, we may be unable to maintain our historical product design and marketing direction or appeal to the brand's customer base as originally intended and our results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

Our business is subject to ABG Vince's approval rights and other actions.

Under the License Agreement, ABG Vince has broad approval rights at its sole good faith discretion, including over, among other things, design direction of Licensed Products and marketing strategies, as well as any addition of new customer accounts and new retail locations. In addition, ABG Vince may remove any customer account that was pre-approved at the time of the closing of the Asset Sale if using its good faith, commercially reasonable judgment, it believes that such account is no longer consistent with the brand positioning for the Licensed Property. If ABG Vince chooses to exercise any of these approval rights, we may be unable to operate our business as intended. Furthermore, as part of the Asset Sale, our license agreements, including our e-commerce website domain name license, were sold to ABG Vince. ABG Vince will be required to maintain such license agreements going forward, and its failure to do so could materially and adversely affect our business and operations. Lastly, V Opco's governance rights as a minority equity holder of ABG Vince are limited and therefore, ABG Vince could choose to take corporate actions that would materially and negatively impact the results of operations of ABG Vince, which could in turn adversely affect the amount of cash available for distribution to V Opco.

We may not be able to realize the benefits of our strategic initiatives.

12

Our business growth depends on the successful execution of our strategic initiatives. However, the continued success of our strategic initiatives depends on a number of factors, which historically included positioning our retail and e-commerce businesses for further strategic growth, particularly through enhancement of our customer data platform to create improved segmentation and personalization for an enhanced customer experience, expanding our presence internationally including in Asia and Europe, growing men's business, properly identifying appropriate future growth opportunities, and other macroeconomic impacts on our business. However, there can be no assurance that these strategic initiatives will produce their intended positive results and, particularly in light of the financial impacts of recently implemented and new retaliatory and/or reciprocal tariffs, as well as changing trade policies between the U.S. and its trading partners, some or all of our strategic initiatives may become operationally infeasible or impractical. If we are unable to realize the benefits of the strategic initiatives, our financial conditions, results of operations and cash flows could be materially and adversely affected.

We are subject to risks associated with leasing retail and office space, which are historically subject to long-term non-cancellable leases and are required to make substantial lease payments under our operating leases, and any failure to make these lease payments when due would likely harm our business, profitability and results of operations.

We do not own any of our stores or our offices, including our New York, Los Angeles or Paris offices and showroom spaces, but instead lease all of such space under operating leases. Substantially all of our leases require a fixed annual rent, and most require the payment of additional rent if store sales exceed a negotiated amount. Most of our leases are “net” leases, which require us to pay the cost of insurance, taxes, maintenance, and utilities. Some of our leases are subject to initial terms that are as long as 10 years, and we generally cannot cancel these leases solely at our option. Additionally, certain of our leases allow the lessor to terminate the lease if we do not achieve a specified gross sales threshold. There can be no assurance that we will be able to achieve these required thresholds and in the event we are not able to do so, we may be forced to find an alternative store location and may not be successful in doing so. Any loss of our store locations due to underperformance may harm our results of operations, stock price and reputation.

Payments under these leases account for a significant portion of our selling, general and administrative expenses. For example, as of February 1, 2025, we were a party to 61 operating leases associated with our retail stores and our office and showroom spaces requiring future minimum lease payments of $22,466 in the aggregate through fiscal 2025 and $109,209 thereafter. Any new retail stores leased by us under operating leases will further increase our operating lease expenses, and some of those stores may require significant capital expenditures. We depend on cash flows from operations to pay our lease expenses and to fulfill our other cash needs. Particularly in light of the financial impacts of recently implemented and new retaliatory and/or reciprocal tariffs, as well as changing trade policies between the U.S. and its trading partners, if our business does not generate sufficient cash flow from operating activities, and sufficient funds are not otherwise available to us from borrowings under our credit facilities or from other sources, we may not be able to service our operating lease expenses, grow our business, respond to competitive challenges or fund our other liquidity and capital needs, which would harm our business. In addition, we may remain obligated under the applicable lease for, among other things, payment of the base rent for the remaining lease term, even after the space is exited or otherwise closed (such as our temporary store closures resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic). Such costs and obligations related to the early or temporary closure of our stores or termination of our leases could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

If an existing or future store is not profitable, and we decide to close it, we may nonetheless be committed to perform our obligations under the applicable lease including, among others, paying the base rent for the balance of the lease term if we cannot negotiate a mutually acceptable termination payment. In fiscal 2025, 11 of our existing store leases will expire, many for which we have already extended or secured an alternative location. As our leases expire, we may fail to negotiate renewals, either on commercially acceptable terms or at all, or to find a suitable alternative location, which could cause us to close stores in desirable locations or in the case of office leases, incur costs in relocating our office space.

We may be unable to open retail stores in select locations under favorable lease terms and operate and maintain our new and existing retail stores successfully, which could materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

We continue to seek retail opportunities in targeted streets or malls with desirable size and adjacencies, typically near luxury retailers that we believe are consistent with our key customers' demographics and shopping preferences, and seek to negotiate favorable leases. The success of this strategy depends on a number of factors, including the identification of suitable markets and sites, negotiation of acceptable lease terms while securing those favorable locations, including desired term, rent and tenant improvement allowances, and if entering a new market, the timely achievement of brand awareness and proper evaluation of the market, affinity and purchase intent in that market, as well as our business condition in funding the opening and operations of stores. In addition, under the License Agreement, we are required to maintain a minimum number of retail locations as well as obtain prior approval from ABG Vince with respect to new retail locations which may be provided at its sole good faith discretion. We may be unable to open new retail locations as intended if ABG Vince chooses to withhold such approval. Furthermore, we may not be able to maintain the successful operation of our retail stores if the areas around our existing retail locations undergo changes that result in reductions in customer foot traffic or otherwise render the locations unsuitable, such as economic downturns in the area (particularly in light of the financial impacts of recently implemented and new retaliatory and/or reciprocal tariffs, as well as changing trade policies between the U.S. and its trading partners), changes in demographics and customer preferences, and the closing or decline in popularity of adjacent stores.

13

As of February 1, 2025, we operated 57 stores, including 42 company-operated Vince full-price stores and 14 company-operated Vince outlet stores throughout the United States and one company-operated Vince full price store in the United Kingdom.

Our limited operating experience and brand recognition in international markets may delay our expansion strategy and cause our business and growth to suffer.

We face risks with respect to our strategy to expand internationally, including our efforts to further expand our business in Asia and Europe through company-operated locations, wholesale arrangements as well as with international partners. Our current operations are based largely in the U.S., with international wholesale sales representing approximately 7% of net sales for fiscal 2024. Therefore, we have a limited number of customers and experience in operating outside of the U.S. We also do not have extensive experience with regulatory environments and market practices outside of the U.S. and cannot guarantee that we will be able to penetrate or successfully operate in any market outside of the U.S. Many of these markets also have different operational characteristics, including employment and labor regulations, transportation, logistics, real estate (including lease terms) and local reporting or legal requirements, and the impact on the international markets remains unclear. In addition, changes in regulatory, geopolitical, social or economic policies, particularly in light of the financial impacts of recently implemented and new retaliatory and/or reciprocal tariffs, as well as changing trade policies between the U.S. and its trading partners, may present further barriers to expanding in international markets, including China and other neighboring countries in Asia. Furthermore, pursuant to the License Agreement, our exclusive license to operate the Vince brand may be limited by the terms of the License Agreement. Some of the regions in which we currently operate are designated as Option Territories, including the Middle East and Latin America. If Authentic chooses to operate in these Option Territories, we become unable to directly operate in those areas.

We have identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting that could, if not remediated, result in material misstatements in our financial statements.

A material weakness continued to exist relating to our internal control over financial reporting which was previously identified in fiscal 2016. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of an entity's financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The material weakness will not be remediated until all necessary internal controls have been implemented, tested and determined to be operating effectively. In addition, we may need to take additional measures to address such material weakness or modify the planned remediation steps, and we cannot be certain that the measures we have taken, and expect to take, to improve our internal controls will be sufficient to address the issues identified, to ensure that our internal controls are effective or to ensure that the identified material weakness will not result in a material misstatement of our consolidated financial statements. Moreover, other material weaknesses or deficiencies may develop or be identified in the future. If we are unable to correct material weaknesses or deficiencies in internal controls in a timely manner, our ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information accurately and within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, will be adversely affected. This failure could negatively affect the market price and trading liquidity of our common stock, cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, subject us to civil and criminal investigations and penalties, and otherwise materially and adversely impact our business and financial condition.

For so long as we remain a “non-accelerated filer” under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, our independent registered public accounting firm is not required to deliver an annual attestation report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. We will cease to be a non-accelerated filer if either (i) the aggregate market value of our outstanding common stock held by non-affiliates as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter (our “public float”) is $75,000 or more and our annual revenues for the most recently completed fiscal year are $100,000 or more or (ii) our public float is $700,000 or more, in which case we would become subject to the requirement for an annual attestation report by our independent registered public accounting firm on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.

Failure to comply with laws and regulations could adversely impact our business.

We are subject to numerous domestic and international laws, regulations and advisories, including labor and employment, environmental, wage and hour, customs and tariffs, truth- in-advertising, consumer protection, data and privacy protection, and zoning and occupancy laws and ordinances that regulate retailers generally or govern the importation, promotion and sale of merchandise and the operation of stores and warehouse facilities, all of which may change from time to time. If these regulations were violated by our management, employees, vendors, independent manufacturers or partners, the costs of certain goods could increase, or we could experience delays in shipments of our products, be subject to fines or penalties, or suffer reputational harm, which could reduce demand for our merchandise and hurt our business and results of operations. In addition, we are subject to laws and regulations related to us being a public company, including the rules and regulations of the SEC and the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE"). Any violation of or not meeting compliance standards under such laws and regulations could impact our status as a public company, including our ability to continue being listed on the NYSE. Moreover, changes in product safety or other consumer protection laws could lead to increased costs to us for certain merchandise, or additional labor costs associated with readying merchandise for sale. It is often difficult for us to

14

plan and prepare for potential changes to applicable laws and future actions or payments related to such changes could be material to us.

Increased scrutiny from investors, regulators and others regarding our approach to sustainability matters and environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) practices could result in additional costs or risks that adversely impact our business operations, including our reputation and our financial results.

Increasingly, regulators, customers, investors, employees and other stakeholders are focusing on sustainability matters and ESG practices and related disclosures. The emergence of new and more stringent legislation, regulation and oversight related to sustainability and ESG practices (such as the marketing of goods and business practices, and corresponding mandatory and voluntary public reporting and disclosures related to such practices, including the SEC’s recent climate-related reporting requirements) are likely to result in increased costs and expenses and increased management time and attention spent monitoring, complying with or meeting sustainability and ESG-related requirements and expectations, which could impact our business operations, including our financial results. For example, developing and acting on sustainability and ESG-related initiatives, including design, sourcing and operations decisions, and collecting, measuring and reporting related data and metrics can be costly, difficult and time-consuming. Furthermore, the Company’s approach to sustainability matters and ESG practices may be based on assumptions and standards for measuring progress that are still evolving, internal controls and processes that are developing, and reporting standards that may be subject to change in the future. Failure or perceived failure to adapt to or sufficiently comply with evolving or expanding regulatory requirements or stakeholder expectations and standards could further increase costs and expenses, including through potential regulatory enforcement and consumer actions, and could negatively impact the Company’s reputation, consumer patronage and, in turn, our results of operations.

Intense competition in the apparel and fashion industry could reduce our sales and profitability.

As a fashion company, we face intense competition from other domestic and foreign apparel, footwear and accessories manufacturers and retailers. Competition has and may continue to result in pricing pressures, reduced profit margins, lost market share or failure to grow our market share, any of which could substantially harm our business and results of operations. Some of our competitors have more established relationships with a broader set of suppliers, greater brand recognition and greater financial, research and development, marketing, distribution and other resources than we do. These capabilities of our competitors may allow one or more of them to better withstand downturns in the economy or apparel and fashion industry. Any increased competition, or our failure to adequately address any of these competitive factors which we have seen from time to time, could result in reduced sales, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and operating results.

Competition, along with such other factors as consolidation within the retail industry and changes in consumer spending patterns, could also result in significant pricing pressure and cause the sales environment to be more promotional, as it has been in recent years, impacting our financial results. For instance, we operated through a highly promotional sales environment during fiscal 2022 which had a negative impact on our operating results. If promotional pressure remains intense, either through actions of our competitors or through customer expectations, this may cause a further reduction in our sales and gross margins and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results.

We may not successfully manage the transition associated with the appointment of a new Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, which could have an adverse impact on us.

On February 5, 2025, we announced that, in connection with the P180 Acquisition, we appointed Brendan Hoffman as our Chief Executive Officer, effective as of February 6, 2025. David Stefko resigned from the position of Interim Chief Executive Officer, effective February 6, 2025, and remains a member of the Board. Additionally, on March 28, 2025, John Szczepanski resigned from his position as Chief Financial Officer of the Company. In connection with Mr. Szczepanski’s resignation, effective April 14, 2025, the board appointed Yuji Okumura, the Company’s Interim Chief Financial Officer since March 2025 and Vice President, Controller since September 2020, as Chief Financial Officer. The effectiveness of our new Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and our senior leadership team generally, following the foregoing transitions, could have a significant impact on our ability to operate the business effectively. The failure to ensure a smooth transition, including required knowledge transfers, could negatively affect our results of operations and financial condition as well as our ability to execute our business strategies.

If we lose any key personnel, are unable to attract key personnel, or assimilate and retain our key personnel, we may not be able to successfully operate or grow our business.

Our continued success is dependent on our ability to attract, assimilate, retain, and motivate qualified management, designers, administrative talent, and sales associates to support existing operations and future growth. Competition for qualified talent in the apparel and fashion industry is intense, and we compete for these individuals with other companies that in many cases have greater financial and other resources. The loss of the services of any members of senior management or board of directors or the inability to attract and retain qualified executives or members of our board of directors could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. In addition, we will need to continue to attract, assimilate, retain, and motivate highly talented

15

employees with a range of other skills and experience. Competition for employees in our industry, especially at the store management levels, is intense and we may from time to time experience difficulty in retaining our associates or attracting the additional talent necessary to support the growth of our business. We will also need to attract, assimilate, and retain other professionals across a range of disciplines, including design, production, sourcing, and international business, as we develop new product categories and continue to expand our international presence.

Our operating results may be subject to seasonal and quarterly variations in our net revenue and income from operations.

The apparel and fashion industry in which we operate is cyclical and, consequently, our revenues are affected by general economic conditions and the seasonal trends characteristic to the apparel and fashion industry. Purchases of apparel are sensitive to a number of factors that influence the level of consumer spending, including economic conditions and the level of disposable consumer income, consumer debt, interest rates, consumer confidence as well as the impact from adverse weather conditions. In addition, fluctuations in the amount of sales in any fiscal quarter are affected by the timing of seasonal wholesale shipments and other events affecting direct-to-consumer sales; as such, the financial results for any particular quarter may not be indicative of results for the fiscal year. Any future seasonal or quarterly fluctuations in our results of operations may not match the expectations of market analysts and investors to assess the longer- term profitability and strength of our business at any particular point, which could lead to increased volatility in our stock price.

Our competitive position could suffer if the intellectual property rights relating to the Vince brand are not protected.

As a result of the Asset Sale, the intellectual property rights relating to the Vince brand will be protected and enforced by Authentic and we have no control over their actions to do so. If Authentic does not protect the intellectual property rights of the Vince brand, we may become unable to operate our business as intended, which could harm our business and cause our results of operations, liquidity, and financial condition to suffer.

We may be unable to successfully conclude remaining matters following the wind down of the Rebecca Taylor business.

On September 12, 2022, the Company announced its decision to wind down the Rebecca Taylor business. On December 22, 2022, the Company's indirectly wholly owned subsidiary, Rebecca Taylor, Inc., completed the sale of its intellectual property and certain related ancillary assets to RT IPCO, LLC, an affiliate of Ramani Group. Substantially all Rebecca Taylor inventory was liquidated as of January 28, 2023. All Rebecca Taylor retail and outlet stores operated by the Company were closed as of January 28, 2023 and the e-commerce site operated by the Company ceased in December 2022. On July 7, 2023, Rebecca Taylor, Inc. and Rebecca Taylor Retail Stores, LLC, each as an assignor, made a General Assignment for the Benefit of the Creditors (the “Assignment”) to a respective assignee, an unaffiliated California limited liability company, pursuant to California state law. The Assignment resulted in the residual rights and assets of each of Rebecca Taylor, Inc. and Rebecca Taylor Retail Stores, LLC being assigned and transferred to such assignees. The wind down of the Rebecca Taylor business was completed on May 3, 2024 with the nominal sale of all outstanding shares of Rebecca Taylor, Inc. to Nova Acquisitions, LLC. Following completion of the wind down, there remains certain risks and uncertainties surrounding the actions of vendors and other counterparties, including legal risks associated with the wind down. As a result, the overall cost of the wind down may exceed our expectations and the Vince business may be adversely impacted.

Risks Related to Our Supply Chain

The extent of our foreign sourcing may adversely affect our business.

In fiscal 2024 we worked with more than 30 manufacturers across 12 countries, with 66% of our costs related to products produced in China throughout fiscal 2024. A manufacturing contractor's failure to ship products to us in a timely or cost-effective manner or to meet the required quality standards could cause us to miss the delivery date requirements of our customers for those items. The failure to make timely deliveries may cause customers to cancel orders, refuse to accept deliveries or demand reduced prices, any of which could have a material adverse effect on us. As a result of the magnitude of our foreign sourcing, our business is subject to the following additional risks:

•
imposition of duties, taxes, tariffs and other charges on imports, and regulations, quotas, bans and other trade restrictions relating to imports (particularly in light of the financial impacts of recently implemented and new retaliatory and/or reciprocal tariffs, as well as changing trade policies between the U.S. and its trading partners), as further discussed below;
•
imposition of regulations, quotas and other trade restrictions relating to imports, including quotas imposed by bilateral textile agreements between the U.S. and foreign countries;
•
currency exchange rates, including decreases in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies, which could increase the cost of products we purchase from foreign suppliers;

16

•
political and economic instability in countries or regions, especially Asia and in connection with armed conflict (such as conflicts between Ukraine and Russia and in the Middle East), including heightened terrorism, diplomatic and other security concerns, which could subject imported or exported goods to additional or more frequent inspections, leading to delays in deliveries or impoundment of goods;
•
increases in the costs of fuel, travel and transportation, both related and unrelated to the armed conflict between Ukraine and Russia and in the Middle East, and demand for freight services at a time of reduced ocean freight capacity;
•
disease epidemics and health-related concerns, which could result in travel restrictions, closed factories, reduced workforces and higher labor costs, scarcity of and increased prices for raw materials and scrutiny or embargoing of goods produced in infected areas;
•
labor union strikes at ports through which our products enter the U.S.;
•
labor shortages in countries where contractors and suppliers are located;
•
restrictions on the transfer of funds to or from foreign countries;
•
the migration and development of manufacturing contractors, which could affect where our products are or are planned to be produced;
•
reduced manufacturing flexibility because of geographic distance between our foreign manufacturers and us, increasing the risk that we may have to mark down unsold inventory as a result of misjudging the market for a foreign-made product; and
•
violations by foreign contractors of labor and wage standards and resulting adverse publicity.

If these risks limit or prevent us from manufacturing products in any significant international market, prevent us from acquiring products from foreign suppliers, or continue to significantly increase the cost of our products, our operations could be seriously disrupted until alternative suppliers are found or alternative markets are developed, which could negatively and significantly impact our business.

Furthermore, to date, the current U.S. Administration has imposed, and continues to propose to impose, additional tariffs on all U.S. imports, which significantly raises the per-unit cost of our products. While we have implemented certain strategies to mitigate such impact, including further diversification of our sourcing base to mitigate some negative macroenvironmental impact of a particular region such as China, executing such diversification is and will be time consuming, may be difficult or impracticable for many products, may result in further increases in our per-unit costs and/or may negatively impact the quality of our products. Any increase in the prices of our products and/or decline in the quality of our products could in turn negatively impact the demand for our products and negatively impact our business and results of operations. See “— Changes to and unpredictability in the trade policies and tariffs imposed by the U.S. government and the governments of other nations could materially affect our financial condition and results of operations.”

Our reliance on independent manufacturers could cause delays or quality issues which could damage customer relationships.

We use independent manufacturers to assemble or produce all of our products, whether inside or outside the U.S. We are dependent on the ability of these independent manufacturers to adequately finance the production of goods ordered, maintain sufficient manufacturing capacity, and otherwise provide products that are consistent with our quality and ethical standards. We receive from time to time shipments of product that fail to conform to our quality control standards or products that are damaged during shipment as they were not properly packed. Failures such as these in our quality control program may result in diminished product quality, which in turn may result in increased order cancellations and returns, decreased consumer demand for our products, or product recalls, any of which may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. In addition, products that fail to meet our standards, or other unauthorized products, could end up in the marketplace without our knowledge. This could materially harm our brand and our reputation in the marketplace.

We generally do not have long-term written agreements with any independent manufacturers. As a result, any single manufacturing contractor could unilaterally terminate its relationship with us at any time or attempt to change historical terms of engagement, such as demanding accelerated payment terms, all and any of such actions by a manufacturing contractor could disrupt our supply chain strategies and our operations. Our top five manufacturers accounted for the production of approximately 59% of our finished products during fiscal 2024. Supply disruptions from these manufacturers (or any of our other manufacturers) could have a material adverse effect on our ability to meet customer demands if we are unable to source suitable replacement materials at acceptable prices or at all. Moreover, alternative manufacturers, if available, may not be able to provide us with products or services of a comparable quality, at an acceptable price or on a timely basis.

Furthermore, as we pursue further diversification of our sourcing base, particularly in light of the financial impacts of recently implemented and new retaliatory and/or reciprocal tariffs, as well as changing trade policies between the U.S. and its trading partners, we may replace one or more of our vendors and also enter into relationships with new manufacturers. Identifying suitable suppliers is an involved process that requires us to become satisfied with their quality control, responsiveness and service, financial stability and

17

labor and other responsible and/or ethical business practices. There can be no assurance that there will not be a disruption in the supply of our products from independent manufacturers or that any new manufacturers will be successful in producing our products in a manner we expected, and as a result, our business and financial results could be negatively affected.

Problems with our distribution process could materially harm our ability to meet customer expectations, manage inventory, complete sale transactions, and achieve targeted operating efficiencies.

In the U.S., we rely on a distribution facility operated by a third-party logistics provider in California. Our ability to meet the needs of our wholesale partners and our own direct-to-consumer business depends on the proper operation of this distribution facility. Because substantially all of our products are distributed from one state, our operations could be interrupted by labor difficulties, by floods, fires, earthquakes or other natural disasters and health crises and pandemics, at or near such facility, or by the indirect effects of macroeconomic events, such as recently implemented, new and retaliatory and/or reciprocal tariffs. For example, a majority of our ocean shipments go through the ports in California, which are subject to significant processing delays, particularly in light of the financial impacts of recently implemented and new retaliatory and/or reciprocal tariffs, as well as changing trade policies between the U.S. and its trading partners, which in turn results not only in shipment disruptions but also in significantly increased freight costs. We also have warehouses overseas, including in Hong Kong and Belgium, operated by third-party logistics providers, supporting our wholesale orders for customers located primarily in the nearby regions. Disruptions at any of these facilities located outside the U.S. (including disruptions related to tariff risks and the armed conflict between Ukraine and Russia and in the Middle East) could also materially and negatively impact our business.

We maintain business interruption insurance. These policies, however, may not adequately protect us from the adverse effects that could result from significant disruptions to our distribution system. If we encounter problems with any of our distribution processes, our ability to meet customer expectations, manage inventory, complete sales, and achieve targeted operating efficiencies could be harmed. Any of the foregoing factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and operating results.

Fluctuations in the price, availability and quality of raw materials could cause delays and increase costs and cause our operating results and financial condition to suffer.

Fluctuations in the price, availability and quality of the fabrics or other raw materials, particularly cotton, silk, leather and synthetics used in our manufactured apparel, could have a material adverse effect on cost of sales or our ability to meet customer demands. The prices of fabrics depend largely on the market prices of the raw materials used to produce them. The price and availability of the raw materials and, in turn, the fabrics used in our apparel may fluctuate significantly, depending on many factors, including crop yields, weather patterns, labor costs and changes in oil prices as well as other economic factors, particularly in light of the financial impacts of recently implemented and new retaliatory and/or reciprocal tariffs, as well as changing trade policies between the U.S. and its trading partners, and the armed conflict between Ukraine and Russia and in the Middle East. We may not be able to create suitable design solutions that utilize raw materials with attractive prices or, alternatively, to pass higher raw materials prices and related transportation costs on to our customers. We are not always successful in our efforts to protect our business from the volatility of the market price of raw materials, and our business can be materially affected by dramatic movements in prices of raw materials. The ultimate effect of this change on our earnings cannot be quantified, as the effect of movements in raw materials prices on industry selling prices are uncertain, but any significant increase in these prices could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results.

If our independent manufacturers fail to use ethical business practices and comply with applicable laws and regulations, our business could be harmed due to negative publicity.

We have established operating guidelines which promote responsible and ethical business practices such as fair wage practices, compliance with child labor laws and other local laws. While we monitor compliance with those guidelines, we do not control our independent manufacturers or their business practices. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee their compliance with our guidelines. From time to time, our audit results have revealed a lack of compliance in certain respects, including with respect to local labor, safety, and environmental laws. Other fashion companies have faced criticism after highly publicized incidents or compliance issues have occurred or been exposed at factories producing their products. To the extent our manufacturers do not bring their operations into compliance with such laws or resolve material issues identified in any of our audit results, we may face similar criticism and negative publicity. In addition, other fashion companies have encountered organized boycotts of their products in such situations. If we, or other companies in our industry, encounter similar problems in the future, it could harm our business, stock price and results of operations. In addition, a lack of demonstrated compliance by our suppliers, and especially by any new suppliers with whom we may have little or no experience, could lead or require us to seek alternative suppliers, which could increase our costs and result in delayed delivery of our products, product shortages or other disruptions of our operations. Furthermore, expectations of ethical business practices continually evolve, may be substantially more demanding than applicable legal requirements and are driven in part by legal developments and by diverse groups active in publicizing and organizing public responses to perceived ethical shortcomings. Accordingly, we cannot predict how

18

expectations of ethical business practices might develop in the future and cannot be certain that our guidelines would satisfy all parties who are active in monitoring and publicizing perceived shortcomings in labor and other business practices worldwide.

Risks Related to Our Information Technology and Security

System or data security issues, such as cyber or malware attacks, as well as other major system failures could disrupt our internal operations or information technology services, and any such disruption could negatively impact our net sales, increase our expenses and harm our reputation.

From time to time, we are subject to system or data security problems, including viruses and bugs as well as security issues created by third-party software and applications, employee errors and malfeasance and other various causes. None of these incidents has resulted in any data or information breaches or any other material impact to our financial results. There is no assurance, however, that we would not be subject to material security problems in the future, including cyber or malware attacks, including as an indirect result of our ability to direct sufficient human and capital resources towards systems and data security, malicious actors using artificial intelligence to carry out more sophisticated attacks and increasing the potential for harm, changes to domestic and international regulations or other policies or the armed conflicts between Ukraine and Russia and in the Middle East, and we could incur significant expenses or disruptions of our operations in connection with resulting system failures or data and information breaches. The increased use of smartphones, tablets, and other wireless devices, as well as the hybrid and remote work environments, and advancements in and increasing business integration of artificial intelligence may also heighten these and other operational risks. The costs to us to eliminate or alleviate security problems, viruses and bugs could be significant, and the efforts to address these problems could result in interruptions, delays or cessation of service that may impact our reputation and/or impede our sales, distribution or other critical functions. Furthermore, any security issues that involve the compromise of personal information of our customers or employees could subject us to litigation and/or penalties and harm our reputation, materially and adversely affecting our business and growth. We also do not control our third-party service providers and cannot guarantee that no electronic or physical computer break-ins and security breaches will occur in the future, nor can we guarantee that any loss we experience can be recovered from such third-party service providers. Lastly, in the case of a disaster affecting our information technology systems, we may experience delays in recovery of data, inability to perform vital corporate functions, tardiness in required reporting and compliance, failures to adequately support our operations and other breakdowns in normal communication and operating procedures that could materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

We are continuing to adopt, optimize and improve our information technology systems, processes, and functions. If these systems, processes, and functions do not operate successfully, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be materially harmed.

We continue to optimize and improve our information technology environment. For example, in fiscal 2022, we completed the implementation of a customer data platform and the front-end re-platforming of our Vince e-commerce website and in fiscal 2023 and 2024, we improved our cybersecurity environment through the implementation of true end-point protection and improved network infrastructure. We plan to progress these strategies, including investing in customer facing technologies to further expand our omni-channel capabilities and to further consolidate systems over time to create operational efficiencies and to achieve a common platform across the Company. If we fail in our efforts to continue adopting, optimizing and improving these systems, processes and functions as currently planned or fail to effectively utilize technological advancements in areas such as artificial intelligence and data analytics, we could incur further disruptions to our business and operations, including lost e-commerce sales, a negative mobile experience for our customers, deficiencies or weaknesses in our internal controls, as well as additional costs to replace those systems and functions.

Failure to comply with privacy‑related obligations, including privacy laws and regulations in the U.S. and internationally as well as other legal obligations, could materially adversely affect our business.

A variety of laws and regulations, in the U.S. and internationally, govern the collection, use, retention, sharing, transfer and security of personally identifiable information and data, including the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), which became effective during fiscal 2018, the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”), which became effective on January 1, 2020 and the California Privacy Rights Act of 2020 (“CPRA”), which became effective January 1, 2023. Since the enactment of the CCPA and CPRA, data security laws have been proposed in more than half of the U.S. states and in the U.S. Congress, reflecting a trend toward more stringent privacy legislation in the U.S. Additionally, the Federal Trade Commission and many state attorneys general are interpreting federal and state consumer protection laws as imposing standards for the online collection, use, dissemination, and security of data. It is possible that these laws, rules and regulations, which evolve frequently and may be inconsistent from one jurisdiction to another, could be interpreted to conflict with our practices. In addition to the costs of compliance with and other burdens imposed by privacy and data security laws and regulations, any failure or perceived failure by us or any third parties with whom we do business to comply with these laws, rules and regulations, or with other obligations to which we may be or become subject, may result in actions against us by governmental entities, private claims and litigation, fines, penalties or

19

other liabilities. Any such action would be expensive to defend, could damage our reputation and could adversely affect our business and operating results.

Risks Related to Our Structure and Ownership

We may not be able to maintain a listing of our common stock on the NYSE.

Our common stock is currently listed on the NYSE, and we must meet certain financial and liquidity criteria to maintain our listing on NYSE. If we violate the continued listing requirements set forth in the NYSE Listed Company Manual, which includes the requirement to maintain a 30-trading day average market capitalization of at least $50,000 or $50,000 of stockholders’ equity, our common stock may be delisted. No assurance can be given that the Company will be able to maintain compliance with the NYSE’s continued listing requirements. If the Company's common stock ultimately were to be suspended from trading and delisted for any reason, it could have adverse consequences including, among others, reduced trading liquidity for our common stock, lower demand and market price for our common stock, adverse publicity and a reduced interest in the Company from investors, analysts and other market participants. In addition, a suspension or delisting could impair the Company’s ability to raise additional capital through the public markets and the Company’s ability to attract and retain employees by means of equity compensation.

We are a “controlled company,” controlled by investment funds advised by affiliates of P180, whose interests in our business may be different from yours.

On January 22, 2025, P180 acquired a majority stake of our outstanding common stock from affiliates of Sun Capital Partners, Inc. and as of April 21, 2025, P180 owned approximately 56% of our outstanding common stock. Additionally, Brendan Hoffman, our Chief Executive Officer, also serves as chairman of the board of directors of P180, Inc., which directly and wholly owns P180. P180 could control matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors, amendments to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, and approval of significant corporate actions that require the vote of stockholders, and P180, as well as Mr. Hoffman, have significant influence over our management and policies. While we believe we have taken steps to align the interests of P180 as well as Mr. Hoffman with the interests of the Company and/or our other stockholders, it is possible that, in certain circumstances as P180 makes operational decisions for itself, including litigation activities and tax determinations, its interests may conflict with our interests and the interests of our other stockholders, including you.

We are a “smaller reporting company” and intend to avail ourselves of reduced disclosure requirements applicable to smaller reporting companies, which could make our common stock less attractive to investors.

We are a “smaller reporting company,” as defined in the Exchange Act, and we intend to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “smaller reporting companies,” including reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements. We cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our stock price may be more volatile. We intend to take advantage of these reporting exemptions until we are no longer a “smaller reporting company.” We will remain a “smaller reporting company” until the aggregate market value of our outstanding common stock held by non-affiliates as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter is $250,000 or more and annual revenue as of our most recently completed fiscal year is $100,000 or more, or the aggregate market value of our outstanding common stock held by non-affiliates as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter is $700,000 or more, regardless of annual revenue.

ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVE D STAFF COMMENTS.

None.

ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY.

Cybersecurity Risk Management and Strategy

The Company is committed to, and recognizes the importance of, information security, cyber readiness, and data privacy protections to our business and reputation, which includes assessing, identifying, and managing material risks associated with cybersecurity threats. Our cybersecurity program uses processes, technologies, and controls to assist in our efforts to assess, identify, and manage material cybersecurity-related risks.

20

The Company employs a number of tools and services, such as network monitoring and vulnerability assessments to inform our risk identification and assessment processes. We also maintain an incident response plan that outlines processes designed to triage, assess the severity of, escalate, contain, investigate, and remediate cybersecurity incidents while also complying with relevant legal obligations. Our employees receive cybersecurity awareness and sensitive information protection training on a regular basis, which we also periodically test for effectiveness through simulations, which may include simulated phishing emails and tabletop exercises. Additionally, the Company regularly makes assessments related to the potential impact of a security incident at a third-party vendor, service provider or customer or otherwise implicating the third-party technology and systems the Company uses. We also maintain cybersecurity risk insurance.

Our information security team serves as a first line of defense, including managing cyber risk strategy execution and owning the day-to-day management of these risks. Our enterprise risk management function, which includes members of our executive leadership team, serves as a second line of defense, bringing holistic risk oversight while serving as a partner to the business to help strategically manage risk. In particular, cybersecurity risks are monitored by a team composed of members of our executive team, who in turn provides updates to the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors, who is responsible for assisting the Board of Directors with oversight over cybersecurity risks.

Through the processes described above, we did not identify risks from current or past cybersecurity incidents that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition. However, despite our efforts, we cannot eliminate all risks from cybersecurity threats, or provide assurances that we have not experienced undetected cybersecurity incidents. See Part I, Item IA. Risk Factors – “Risks Related to Our Information Technology and Security”.

Cybersecurity Governance

Our Board of Directors and Audit Committee are actively engaged in the oversight of our information security program, including the Company’s technology and information security policies and practices, the internal controls relating to information security, and the steps taken by management to identify, monitor, and control any risk exposures. Our management has general responsibility for day-to-day implementation of our information technology, cybersecurity, and privacy strategies and policies, including deployment and use of security tools, applications, and employee training. Role or project specific employee training, as well as other training, may also occur, as needed. Our cybersecurity risk management and strategy processes, which are discussed in greater detail above, are led by our Chief Information Officer (“CIO”), who is assisted by other members of our senior management team. The team engaged in the cybersecurity risk management process, including the CIO, has risk management backgrounds, certifications, and/or cyber experience in prior professional roles and at the Company. The team also maintains expertise on cyber risk management through third party consultants, external training, and affiliations with relevant organizations.

Given the importance of information security to our customers, employees, suppliers and other partners, our Board and/or the Audit Committee receives reports as needed from our CIO on cybersecurity-related matters, including the status of projects to strengthen our security systems and to improve our cyber threat readiness, as well as on the existing and emerging cyber threat landscape and our program for managing these security risks.

ITEM 2. PR OPERTIES.

The following table sets forth the location, use and size of our significant corporate facilities and showrooms as of February 1, 2025, all of which are leased under various agreements expiring at various times through fiscal 2035, subject to renewal options.

Location |  | Use |  | Approximate Square Footage |
New York, NY |  | Corporate Office |  |  | 49,492 |
Los Angeles, CA |  | Vince Design Studio |  |  | 28,541 |
Paris, France |  | Vince Showroom |  |  | 4,209 |

As of February 1, 2025, we leased 139,908 gross square feet related to our 57 company-operated Vince retail stores. Although certain recent leases are subject to shorter terms as a result of the implementation of our strategy to pursue shorter lease terms when evaluating certain markets, some of our leases have initial terms of 10 years, and in some instances, can be extended for an additional term. Substantially all of our leases require a fixed annual rent, and most require the payment of additional rent if store sales exceed a negotiated amount. Most of our leases are "net" leases, which require us to pay all of the cost of insurance, taxes, maintenance, and utilities. Although we generally cannot cancel these leases at our option, certain of our leases allow us, and in some cases, the lessor, to terminate the lease if we do not achieve a specified gross sales threshold.

The following store list shows the location, opening date, type, and size of our company-operated retail locations as of February 1, 2025:

Our common stock trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "VNCE".

Record Holders

As of March 31, 2025, there were 6 holders of record of our common stock.

Dividends

We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock. We currently intend to retain all available funds and any future earnings to fund the development and growth of our business, and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. In addition, because we are a holding company, our ability to pay dividends depends on our receipt of cash distributions from our subsidiaries. The terms of our indebtedness substantially restrict the ability to pay dividends. See "Item 7—Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Financing Activities" of this Annual Report for a description of the related restrictions.

Any future determination to pay dividends will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on our financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, restrictions contained in current and future financing instruments and other factors that our board of directors deems relevant.

Purchases of Equity Securities by the Issuer and Affiliated Purchasers

We did not repurchase any shares of common stock during the three months ended February 1, 2025.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Annual Report. All amounts disclosed are in thousands except store counts, share and per share data and percentages.

This discussion contains forward-looking statements involving risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause our results to differ materially from expectations. For a discussion of the risks facing our business, see "Part I, Item 1A—Risk Factors" included in this Annual Report.

Executive Overview

We are a global retail company that operates the Vince brand women's and men's ready to wear business. We serve our customers through a variety of channels that reinforces the brand image. Previously, we also owned and operated the Rebecca Taylor and Parker brands until the sale of the respective intellectual property was completed, as discussed below.

Vince, established in 2002, is a leading global luxury apparel and accessories brand best known for creating elevated yet understated pieces for every day effortless style. As of February 1, 2025, we operate 43 full-price retail stores, 14 outlet stores, the e-commerce site, vince.com, and the subscription service Vince Unfold, vinceunfold.com. Vince is also available through premium wholesale channels globally.

On April 21, 2023 the Company entered into a strategic partnership ("Authentic Transaction") with Authentic Brands Group, LLC ("Authentic"), a global brand development, marketing and entertainment platform, whereby the Company contributed its intellectual property to a newly formed Authentic subsidiary ("ABG Vince") for cash consideration and a membership interest in ABG Vince. The Company closed the Asset Sale on May 25, 2023. On May 25, 2023, in connection with the Authentic Transaction, V Opco, entered into a License Agreement (the "License Agreement") with ABG Vince, which provides V Opco with an exclusive, long-term license to use the Licensed Property in the Territory to the Approved Accounts (each as defined in the License Agreement). See Note 2 "Recent Transactions" to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this Annual Report for additional information.

On January 22, 2025, P180 Vince Acquisition Co., a subsidiary of P180, Inc., a venture focused on accelerating growth and profitability in the luxury apparel sector, acquired a majority stake in the Company (the “P180 Acquisition”) from affiliates of Sun Capital Partners, Inc. (collectively, “Sun Capital”).

Rebecca Taylor, founded in 1996 in New York City, was a contemporary womenswear line lauded for its signature prints, romantic detailing and vintage inspired aesthetic, reimagined for a modern era. On September 12, 2022, the Company announced its decision to wind down the Rebecca Taylor business. On December 22, 2022, the Company's indirectly wholly owned subsidiary, Rebecca Taylor, Inc., completed the sale of its intellectual property and certain related ancillary assets to RT IPCO, LLC, an affiliate of Ramani Group. On May 3, 2024, V Opco completed the sale of all outstanding shares of Rebecca Taylor, Inc. to Nova Acquisitions, LLC. See Note 2 "Recent Transactions" within the notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this Annual Report for further information.

Parker, founded in 2008 in New York City, was a contemporary women's fashion brand that was trend focused. During the first half of fiscal 2020 the Company decided to pause the creation of new products to focus resources on the operations of the Vince and Rebecca Taylor brands. On February 17, 2023, the Company's indirectly wholly owned subsidiary, Parker Lifestyle, LLC, completed the sale of its intellectual property and certain related ancillary assets to Parker IP Co. LLC, an affiliate of BCI Brands. See Note 2 "Recent Transactions" to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this Annual Report for further information.

The Company has identified two reportable segments: Vince Wholesale and Vince Direct-to-consumer. As a result of the completion of the wind down and sale, and the determination by the CODM that Parker would not be considered in the Company’s future operating plans, Rebecca Taylor and Parker is no longer an operating segment of the Company.

Transformation Program

On October 31, 2023, the Company announced its Transformation Program focused on driving enhanced profitability through an improved gross margin profile and an optimized expense structure. The Transformation Program achieved its goal set out for fiscal 2024.

Given the evolving tariff policies, we are in the process of re-evaluating our goals under the Transformation Program as we expect to leverage the program infrastructure to help mitigate the potential impact from tariffs.

Results of Operations

Comparable Sales

Comparable sales include our e-commerce sales in order to align with how we manage our brick-and-mortar retail stores and e-commerce online stores as a combined single direct-to-consumer channel of distribution. As a result of our omni-channel sales and inventory strategy, as well as cross-channel customer shopping patterns, there is less distinction between our brick-and-mortar retail stores and our e-commerce online stores and we believe the inclusion of e-commerce sales in our comparable sales metric is a more meaningful representation of these results and provides a more comprehensive view of our year over year comparable sales metric.

A store is included in the comparable sales calculation after it has completed 13 full fiscal months of operations and includes stores, if any, that have been remodeled or relocated within the same geographic market the Company served prior to the relocation. Non-comparable sales include new stores which have not completed 13 full fiscal months of operations, sales from closed stores, and relocated stores serving a new geographic market. For 53-week fiscal years, we continue to adjust comparable sales to exclude the additional week. There may be variations in the way in which some of our competitors and other retailers calculate comparable sales.

Net sales for fiscal 2024 were $293,452, increasing $562, or 0.2%, versus $292,890 for fiscal 2023. The change was partly offset by the effect of the 53rd week in the prior comparative period.

Gross profit increased $11,887, or 8.9%, to $145,179 in fiscal 2024 from $133,292 in fiscal 2023. As a percentage of sales, gross margin was 49.5%, compared with 45.5% in the prior year. The total gross margin rate increase was primarily driven by the following factors:

•
The favorable impact from lower promotional activity in the Direct-to-consumer segment and lower discounting, which contributed positively by approximately 330 basis points;

25

•
The favorable impact from lower product costing and freight costs, and higher pricing, which contributed positively by approximately 320 basis points; partially offset by
•
The unfavorable impact from royalty expense associated with the License Agreement with ABG Vince, which contributed negatively by approximately 150 basis points; and
•
The unfavorable impact of channel and product mix, which contributed negatively by approximately 80 basis points.

Impairment of goodwill for fiscal 2024 was $31,973. There was no impairment of goodwill in fiscal 2023.

Gain on sale of intangible assets for fiscal 2023 was $32,808, of which $32,043 is related to the sale of the Vince intellectual property and certain related ancillary assets and $765 is related to the sale of the Parker intellectual property and certain ancillary assets. See Note 2 "Recent Transactions" to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this Annual Report for additional information.

Gain on sale of subsidiary for fiscal 2024 was $7,634 related to the sale of Rebecca Taylor. See Note 2 "Recent Transactions" to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this Annual Report for additional information.

Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses for fiscal 2024 were $138,016, increasing $3,540, or 2.6%, versus $134,476 for fiscal 2023. SG&A expenses as a percentage of sales were 47.0% and 45.9% for fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, respectively. The change in SG&A expenses compared to the prior year period was primarily due to:

•
$4,718 of increased rent expense primarily due to lease modifications effective in fiscal 2023;
•
$4,308 of increased compensation and benefits;
•
$703 of increased marketing and advertising costs; partly offset by
•
$5,030 decrease related to transaction related expenses associated with the Asset Sale in fiscal 2023;
•
$1,306 of decreased consulting and information technology costs; and
•
$504 net decrease in total SG&A expenses resulting from the wind down of the Rebecca Taylor brand;

Interest expense, net decreased $4,549, or 40.9%, to $6,569 in fiscal 2024 from $11,118 in fiscal 2023 primarily due to $1,755 write-off of deferred financing costs and a $553 prepayment penalty both associated with the termination of the Term Loan Credit Facility (as defined below), as well as an $828 write-off of deferred financing costs associated with the termination of the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility (as defined below). In addition, the decrease was attributable to an overall reduction of debt primarily through the termination of the Term Loan Credit Facility in the second quarter of fiscal 2023 and lower levels of debt under the revolving credit facilities, partially offset by an increase in interest expense related to the Third Lien Credit Facility.

Benefit for income taxes for fiscal 2024 was $3,642 as compared to $3,478 for fiscal 2023. Our effective tax rate for fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023 was 15.6% and (17.0)%, respectively. The effective tax rate for fiscal 2024 differed from the U.S. statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the tax benefits from the reversal of the non-cash deferred tax liability associated with the goodwill impairment, which previously could not be used as a source of income to support the realization of certain deferred tax assets related to the Company's net operating losses, and the reversal of a portion of the Company’s non-cash deferred tax liability associated with the equity method investment, which portion can now be used as a source of income to support the realization of certain deferred tax assets related to the Company's net operating losses. These tax benefits were offset by the current federal and state income tax expense.

The effective tax rate for fiscal 2023 differed from the U.S. statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the tax impacts associated with the Authentic Transaction, offset by state and foreign taxes and tax expense related to a portion of the non-cash deferred tax liability related to the Company’s equity method investment, which cannot be used as a source of income to support the realization of certain deferred tax assets related to the Company’s net operating losses. See Note 11 "Income Taxes" to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this Annual Report for further information.

Equity in net income of equity method investment for the fiscal years 2024 and 2023 was $712 and $1,462, respectively, and consists of the Company's proportionate share of ABG Vince's net income.

Performance by Segment

The Company has identified two reportable segments as further described below:

•
Vince Wholesale segment—consists of the Company's operations to distribute Vince brand products to major department stores and specialty stores in the United States and select international markets; and

26

•
Vince Direct-to-consumer segment—consists of the Company's operations to distribute Vince brand products directly to the consumer through its Vince branded full-price specialty retail stores, outlet stores, and e-commerce platform, and its subscription service Vince Unfold.

On September 12, 2022, the Company announced its decision to wind down the Rebecca Taylor business. On December 22, 2022, the Company's indirectly wholly owned subsidiary, Rebecca Taylor, Inc., completed the sale of its intellectual property and certain related ancillary assets to RT IPCO, LLC, an affiliate of Ramani Group. Substantially all Rebecca Taylor inventory was liquidated as of January 28, 2023. Additionally, all Rebecca Taylor retail and outlet stores operated by the Company were closed as of January 28, 2023 and the e-commerce site operated by the Company ceased in December 2022.

On May 3, 2024, V Opco completed the sale of all outstanding shares of Rebecca Taylor, Inc., which held the Rebecca Taylor business prior to the wind down, to Nova Acquisitions, LLC.

On February 17, 2023, the Company's indirectly wholly owned subsidiary, Parker Lifestyle, LLC, completed the sale of its intellectual property and certain related ancillary assets to Parker IP Co. LLC, an affiliate of BCI Brands. See Note 2 "Recent Transactions" to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this Annual Report for additional information.

As a result of the completion of the wind down and sale, and the determination by the CODM that Parker would not be considered in the Company’s future operating plans, Rebecca Taylor and Parker is no longer an operating segment of the Company.

Unallocated corporate expenses are related to the Vince brand and are comprised of SG&A expenses attributable to corporate and administrative activities (such as marketing, design, finance, information technology, legal and human resource departments), and other charges that are not directly attributable to the Company's Vince Wholesale and Vince Direct-to-consumer reportable segments. In addition, unallocated corporate includes the transaction related expenses associated with the Asset Sale. As the Company’s goodwill is not allocated to the Company’s reportable segments in the measure of segment assets regularly reported to and used by our CODM, the corresponding impairment charge associated with goodwill is not reflected in the operating results of the Company’s reportable segments.

27

Net sales from our Vince Wholesale segment increased $15,746, or 10.5%, to $165,349 in fiscal 2024 from $149,603 in fiscal 2023, due primarily to higher full-price shipments.

Income from operations from our Vince Wholesale segment increased $14,489, or 33.4%, to $57,905 in fiscal 2024 from $43,416 in fiscal 2023 primarily driven by increased net sales and improved gross margin. This gross margin improvement was partially offset by the unfavorable impact of royalty expense associated with the License Agreement with ABG Vince, as royalty expenses were not incurred for the full duration of the comparative period due to the commencement of the License Agreement occurring in the second quarter of the prior fiscal year.

Income from operations |  |  | 2,970 |  |  |  | 5,774 |  |  |  | (2,804 | )

Net sales from our Vince Direct-to-consumer segment decreased $14,993, or 10.5%, to $128,103 in fiscal 2024 from $143,096 in fiscal 2023. Comparable sales, including e-commerce, decreased $6,145, or 4.8%, primarily due to a decrease in promotional activity. Non-comparable sales, which includes new stores that have not completed 13 full fiscal months of operations and Vince Unfold, declined by $8,848, which includes $1,066 of sales attributable to the 53rd week of the prior year. Since the end of fiscal 2023, six net stores have closed, bringing our total retail store count to 57 (consisting of 43 full price stores and 14 outlet stores) as of February 1, 2025, compared to 63 (consisting of 48 full price stores and 15 outlet stores) as of February 3, 2024.

Our Vince Direct-to-consumer segment had income from operations of $2,970 in fiscal 2024 compared to income from operations of $5,774 in fiscal 2023. The change was primarily driven by lower net sales and an increase in SG&A expenses, due mainly to lower rent expense in the prior comparative period related to lease modifications, partially offset by lower expenses primarily related to staffing and an improved gross margin rate. This gross margin improvement was partially offset by the unfavorable impact of royalty expense associated with the License Agreement with ABG Vince, as royalty expenses were not incurred for the full duration of the comparative period due to the commencement of the License Agreement occurring in the second quarter of the prior fiscal year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents, cash flows from operations, if any, borrowings available under the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility (as defined in Note 5 "Long-Term Debt and Financing Arrangements") and the Company's ability to access the capital markets, including the Sales Agreement entered into with Virtu Americas LLC in June 2023 (see Note 9 "Stockholders' Equity" for further information). The Company's primary cash needs are funding working capital requirements, including royalty payments under the License Agreement, meeting debt service requirements and capital expenditures for new stores and related leasehold improvements. The most significant components of the Company's working capital are cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, inventories, accounts payable and other current liabilities.

The Company’s future financial results may be subject to substantial fluctuations, and may be impacted by business conditions and macroeconomic factors, particularly in light of the recently implemented tariffs . While we expect to meet our monthly Excess Availability (as defined in the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility Agreement) covenant and believe that our other sources of liquidity will generate sufficient cash flows to meet our obligations for the next twelve months from the date these financial statements are issued, the foregoing expectation is dependent on a number of factors, including, among others, our ability to generate sufficient cash flow from a combination of tariff mitigating initiatives, our ongoing ability to manage our operating obligations, the ability of our partners to satisfy their payment obligations to us when due, the results of the currently ongoing inventory valuation and potential borrowing restrictions imposed by our lenders based on their credit judgment, all of which could be significantly and negatively impacted by the recently implemented and new retaliatory and/or reciprocal tariffs, as well as changing trade policies between the U.S. and its trading partners, in addition to other macroeconomic factors. Any material negative impact from these factors or others could require us to implement alternative plans to satisfy our liquidity needs which may be unsuccessful. In the event that we are unable to timely service our debt, meet other contractual payment obligations or fund our other liquidity needs, we may need to refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness before maturity, seek waivers of or amendments to our contractual obligations for payment, reduce or delay scheduled expansions and capital expenditures liquidate inventory through additional discounting, sell material assets or operations or seek other financing opportunities. There can be no assurance that these options would be readily available to us and our inability to address our liquidity needs could materially and adversely affect our operations and jeopardize our business, financial condition and results of operations, as further discussed under “— Item 1A. Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business”.

Term Loan Credit Facility

On September 7, 2021, V Opco entered into a $35,000 senior secured term loan credit facility (the "Term Loan Credit Facility") pursuant to a Credit Agreement (the "Term Loan Credit Agreement"), as amended from time to time, by and among V Opco, as the borrower, the guarantors named therein, PLC Agent, LLC, as administrative agent and collateral agent, and the other lenders from time to time party thereto. Vince Holding Corp. and Vince Intermediate Holding, LLC ("Vince Intermediate") were guarantors under the Term Loan Credit Facility. The Term Loan Credit Facility would have matured on the earlier of September 7, 2026, and 91 days after the maturity date of the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility.

On May 25, 2023, utilizing proceeds from the Asset Sale, the Company repaid all outstanding amounts of $28,724, which included accrued interest and a prepayment penalty of $553 (which is included within financing fees on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows), under the Term Loan Credit Facility.

Prior to May 25, 2023, on an inception to date basis, the Company had made repayments of $7,335 on the Term Loan Credit Facility.

2023 Revolving Credit Facility

On June 23, 2023, V Opco, entered into a new $85,000 senior secured revolving credit facility (the "2023 Revolving Credit Facility") pursuant to a Credit Agreement (the "2023 Revolving Credit Agreement") by and among V Opco, the guarantors named therein, Bank of America, N.A. ("BofA"), as Agent, the other lenders from time to time party thereto, and BofA Securities, Inc., as sole lead arranger and sole bookrunner.

All outstanding amounts under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility (as defined below) were repaid in full and such facility was terminated pursuant to the terms thereof as a result of all parties completing their obligations under such facility.

The 2023 Revolving Credit Facility provides for a revolving line of credit of up to the lesser of (i) the Borrowing Base (as defined in the 2023 Revolving Credit Agreement) and (ii) $85,000, as well as a letter of credit sublimit of $10,000. The 2023 Revolving Credit Agreement also permits V Opco to request an increase in aggregate commitments under the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility of up to $15,000, subject to customary terms and conditions. The 2023 Revolving Credit Facility matures on the earlier of June 23, 2028, and 91 days prior to the earliest maturity date of any Material Indebtedness (as defined in the 2023 Revolving Credit Agreement), including the subordinated indebtedness pursuant to the Third Lien Credit Agreement.

Interest is payable on the loans under the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility, at Vince LLC's request, either at Term SOFR, the Base Rate, or SOFR Daily Floating Rate, in each case, with applicable margins subject to a pricing grid based on an average daily excess availability calculation. The "Base Rate" means, for any day, a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the highest of (i) the Federal Funds Rate for such day, plus 0.5%; (ii) the rate of interest in effect for such day as publicly announced from time to time by BofA as its prime rate; (iii) the SOFR Daily Floating Rate on such day, plus 1.0%; and (iv) 1.0%. During the continuance of certain specified events of default, at the election of BofA in its capacity as Agent, interest will accrue at a rate of 2.0% in excess of the applicable non-default rate.

The applicable margins for SOFR Term and SOFR Daily Floating Rate Loans are: (i) 2.0% when the average daily Excess Availability (as defined in the 2023 Revolving Credit Agreement) is greater than 66.7% of the Loan Cap (as defined in the 2023 Revolving Credit Agreement); (ii) 2.25% when the average daily Excess Availability is greater than or equal to 33.3% but less than or equal to 66.7% of the Loan Cap; and (iii) 2.5% when the average daily Excess Availability is less than 33.3% of the Loan Cap. The applicable margins for Base Rate Loans are: (a) 1.0% when the average daily Excess Availability is greater than 66.7% of the Loan Cap; (b) 1.25% when the average daily Excess Availability is greater than or equal to 33.3% but less than or equal to 66.7% of the Loan Cap; and (c) 1.5% when the average daily Excess Availability is less than 33.3% of the Loan Cap. In accordance with the First Amendment, from the First Amendment Effective Date (January 21, 2025) until the first Adjustment Date occurring after the twelve (12) month anniversary of the First Amendment Effective Date, the applicable margin will be 2.50% with respect to SOFR Term Loans and SOFR Daily Floating Rate Loans and 1.50% with respect to Base Rate Loans.

The 2023 Revolving Credit Facility contains a financial covenant requiring Excess Availability at all times to be no less than the greater of (i) 10.0% of the Loan Cap in effect at such time and (ii) $7,500.

The 2023 Revolving Credit Facility contains representations and warranties, covenants and events of default that are customary for this type of financing, including limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness, liens, burdensome agreements, investments, loans, asset sales, mergers, acquisitions, prepayment of certain other debt, the repurchase of capital stock, transactions with affiliates, and the ability to change the nature of its business or its fiscal year. The 2023 Revolving Credit Facility generally permits dividends in the absence of any default or event of default (including any event of default arising from a contemplated dividend), so long as (i) after giving pro forma effect to the contemplated dividend and on a pro forma basis for the 30-day period immediately preceding such dividend, Excess Availability will be at least the greater of 20.0% of the Loan Cap and $15,000 and (ii) after giving pro forma effect to the contemplated dividend, the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the 2023 Revolving Credit Agreement) for the 12 months preceding such dividend will be greater than or equal to 1.0 to 1.0. In accordance with the First Amendment, V Opco shall not make certain Restricted Payments as defined in the Agreement until the earlier of (i) the date that is eighteen (18) month anniversary of the First Amendment Effective Date, which date is July 21, 2026 and (ii) the first date following the twelve (12) month anniversary of the First Amendment Effective Date on which the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is greater than or equal to 1.0 to 1.0.

All obligations under the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility are guaranteed by the Company and Vince Intermediate and any future subsidiaries of the Company (other than Excluded Subsidiaries as defined in the 2023 Revolving Credit Agreement) and secured by a lien on substantially all of the assets of the Company, V Opco and Vince Intermediate and any future subsidiary guarantors, other than among others, equity interests in ABG Vince, as well as the rights of V Opco under the License Agreement.

The Company incurred a total of $466 (of which $458 were incurred in connection with the P180 Acquisition) and $1,150 of financing costs during fiscal years 2024 and 2023, respectively. In accordance with ASC Topic 470, "Debt", these financing costs were recorded as deferred debt issuance costs (which is presented within Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets) and are amortized over the term of the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility.

31

As of February 1, 2025, the Company was in compliance with applicable covenants. As of February 1, 2025, $39,820 was available under the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility, net of the Loan Cap, and there were $11,413 of borrowings outstanding and $6,215 of letters of credit outstanding under the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility. The weighted average interest rate for borrowings outstanding under the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility as of February 1, 2025 was 7.0%.

On January 22, 2025, V Opco, LLC entered into that certain First Amendment (the “First Amendment”) to the 2023 Revolving Credit Agreement. The First Amendment amends the 2023 Revolving Credit Agreement to, among other things, (a) consent to the P180 Acquisition (see Note 2 "Recent Transactions" for additional information); (b) provide that, until the first Adjustment Date following January 22, 2026, the applicable margin will be 2.50% with respect to SOFR Term Loans and SOFR Daily Floating Rate Loans and 1.50% with respect to Base Rate Loans; (c) eliminate the ability to make certain Restricted Payments until the earlier of (i) the date that is eighteen (18) month anniversary of the First Amendment Effective Date, which date is July 21, 2026 and (ii) the first date following the twelve (12) month anniversary of the First Amendment Effective Date on which the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is greater than or equal to 1.0 to 1.0; and (d) until January 22, 2026, modify the thresholds applicable for the Agent’s rights to conduct field exams and inventory appraisals to Excess Availability being less than the greater of 25% of Loan Cap and $18,750 and, following January 24, 2026, such thresholds shall revert back to Excess Availability being less than the greater of 20% of Loan Cap and $15,000.

2018 Revolving Credit Facility

On August 21, 2018, V Opco entered into an $80,000 senior secured revolving credit facility (the "2018 Revolving Credit Facility") pursuant to a credit agreement, as amended and restated from time to time, by and among V Opco, as the borrower, VHC and Vince Intermediate, as guarantors, Citizens Bank, N.A. ("Citizens"), as administrative agent and collateral agent, and the other lenders from time to time party thereto. On January 31, 2023, the Company repaid $125 of fees due in accordance with an amendment entered into on September 30, 2022. Upon the contemporaneous consummation of the Asset Sale, the lenders' commitments to extend credit was reduced to $70,000. The 2018 Revolving Credit Facility would have matured on June 30, 2024.

On June 23, 2023, all outstanding amounts under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility were repaid in full and the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility was terminated pursuant to the terms thereof as a result of all parties completing their obligations under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility. The Company recorded expense of $828 during fiscal 2023, related to the write-off of the remaining deferred financing costs. As of February 1, 2025, no letters of credit remained in place with Citizens that were secured with restricted cash. Restricted cash is included in Prepaid Expenses and other current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Third Lien Credit Facility

On December 11, 2020, V Opco entered into a $20,000 subordinated term loan credit facility (the "Third Lien Credit Facility") pursuant to a credit agreement (the "Third Lien Credit Agreement"), as amended from time to time, dated December 11, 2020, by and among V Opco, as the borrower, VHC and Vince Intermediate, as guarantors, and SK Financial Services, LLC ("SK Financial"), as administrative agent and collateral agent, and other lenders from time to time party thereto. The proceeds were received on December 11, 2020 and were used to repay a portion of the borrowings outstanding under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility.

SK Financial is an affiliate of Sun Capital Partners, Inc. ("Sun Capital"). The Third Lien Credit Facility was reviewed and approved by the Special Committee of the Company's Board of Directors, consisting solely of directors not affiliated with Sun Capital, which committee was represented by independent legal advisors. Immediately prior to the P180 Acquisition, the affiliates of Sun Capital owned approximately 67% of the Company's common stock.

Interest on loans under the Third Lien Credit Facility is payable in kind at a rate revised in connection with the Third Lien Third Amendment (as defined and discussed below) to be equal to the Daily Simple SOFR, subject to a credit spread adjustment of 0.10% per annum, plus 9.0%. During the continuance of certain specified events of default, interest may accrue on the loans under the Third Lien Credit Facility at a rate of 2.0% in excess of the rate otherwise applicable to such amount.

The Company had incurred $485 in deferred financing costs associated with the Third Lien Credit Facility, of which a $400 closing fee is payable in kind and was added to the principal balance. These deferred financing costs were recorded as deferred debt issuance costs. In connection with the debt extinguishment (see below), unamortized debt issuance costs of $179 were included in the calculation of the gain on extinguishment.

All obligations under the Third Lien Credit Facility are guaranteed by the Company, Vince Intermediate and the Company's existing material domestic restricted subsidiaries as well as any future material domestic restricted subsidiaries and are secured on a junior basis relative to the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility by a lien on substantially all of the assets of the Company, Vince Intermediate, V Opco and the Company's existing material domestic restricted subsidiaries as well as any future material domestic restricted subsidiaries.

On April 21, 2023, V Opco entered into that certain Consent and Third Amendment to Credit Agreement (the "Third Lien Third Amendment"), which, among other things, (a) permitted the sale of the intellectual property of the Vince Business contemplated in the

32

Asset Sale, (b) replaced LIBOR as an interest rate benchmark in favor of Daily Simple SOFR, subject to a credit spread adjustment of 0.10% per annum, plus 9.0% (c) amended the Third Lien Credit Agreement's maturity date to the earlier of (i) March 30, 2025 and (ii) 180 days after the maturity date under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility, (d) reduced the capacity to incur indebtedness and liens, make investments, restricted payments and dispositions and repay certain indebtedness and (e) modified certain representations and warranties, covenants and events of default in respect of documentation related to the Asset Sale. The Third Lien Third Amendment became effective upon the consummation of the Asset Sale, the prepayment of the Term Loan Credit Facility in full and other transactions contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement.

On June 23, 2023, V Opco entered into the Fourth Amendment (the "Third Lien Fourth Amendment") to the Third Lien Credit Agreement which, among other things, (a) extended the Third Lien Credit Agreement's maturity date to the earlier of (i) September 30, 2028 and (ii) 91 days prior to the earliest maturity date of any Material Indebtedness (as defined therein) other than the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility and (b) modified certain representations and warranties, covenants and events of default in respect of documentation conforming to the terms of the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility.

On January 22, 2025, V Opco entered into the Fifth Amendment (the “Third Lien Fifth Amendment”) to the Third Lien Credit Agreement which, among other things, consents to the P180 Acquisition. On the same day, V Opco paid $15,000 to SK Financial Services, LLC using proceeds from the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility, which resulted in a pay-down of $20,000 of the Third Lien Credit Facility (the “Sun Debt Paydown”). In addition, in connection with the P180 Acquisition, P180 acquired and assumed $7,000 of the Third Lien Credit Facility outstanding and immediately thereafter cancelled such $7,000 (the “P180 Debt Forgiveness”). Following the Sun Debt Paydown and P180 Debt Forgiveness, the outstanding principal amount of the Third Lien Credit Facility was reduced by approximately $27,000 with $7,500 remaining outstanding, which will continue to accrue payment-in-kind interest in accordance with, and otherwise be subject to, the terms and conditions therein.

The Company determined that modification to the Third Lien Credit Facility under the Fifth Amendment and the corresponding Sun Debt Paydown and P180 Debt Forgiveness should be recorded as debt extinguishment of the Third Lien Credit Facility in accordance with ASC 470. The Company derecognized the old debt and recorded the new debt at fair value in the amount of $7,713, and a gain upon extinguishment in the amount of $11,575. As Sun Capital and affiliates and P180 maintain an equity interest in the Company, the gain on extinguishment was recorded as a capital contribution within equity.

The summary above does not include the following items:

•
The Company has available the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility, which provides for a revolving line of credit of up to the lesser of (i) the Borrowing Base (as defined in the 2023 Revolving Credit Agreement) and (ii) $85,000, as well as a letter of credit sublimit of $10,000. The 2023 Revolving Credit Agreement also permits V Opco to request an increase in aggregate commitments under the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility of up to $15,000, subject to customary terms and conditions. The 2023 Revolving Credit Facility matures on the earlier of June 23, 2028, and 91 days prior to the earliest maturity date of any Material Indebtedness (as defined in the 2023 Revolving Credit Agreement), including the subordinated indebtedness pursuant to the Third Lien Credit Agreement.
•
Interest is payable under the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility, which is calculated either at Term SOFR, the Base Rate, or SOFR Daily Floating Rate, in each case, with applicable margins subject to a pricing grid based on an average daily excess availability calculation. The "Base Rate" means, for any day, a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the highest of (i) the Federal Funds Rate for such day, plus 0.5%; (ii) the rate of interest in effect for such day as publicly announced from

33

time to time by BofA as its prime rate; (iii) the SOFR Daily Floating Rate on such day, plus 1.0%; and (iv) 1.0%. During the continuance of certain specified events of default, at the election of BofA in its capacity as Agent, interest will accrue at a rate of 2.0% in excess of the applicable non-default rate. In accordance with the First Amendment, from the First Amendment Effective Date (January 21, 2025) until the first Adjustment Date occurring after the twelve (12) month anniversary of the First Amendment Effective Date, the applicable margin will be 2.50% with respect to SOFR Term Loans and SOFR Daily Floating Rate Loans and 1.50% with respect to Base Rate Loans. See Note 5 "Long-Term Debt and Financing Arrangements" to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this Annual Report for additional information.
•
Interest on loans under the Third Lien Credit Facility is payable in kind at a rate revised in connection with the Third Lien Third Amendment to be equal to the Daily Simple SOFR, subject to a credit spread adjustment of 0.10% per annum, plus 9.0%. During the continuance of certain specified events of default, interest may accrue on the loans under the Third Lien Credit Facility at a rate of 2.0% in excess of the rate otherwise applicable to such amount. See Note 5 "Long-Term Debt and Financing Arrangements" to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this Annual Report for additional information.

Seasonality

The apparel and fashion industry in which we operate is cyclical and, consequently, our revenues are affected by general economic conditions and the seasonal trends characteristic to the apparel and fashion industry. Purchases of apparel are sensitive to a number of factors that influence the level of consumer spending, including economic conditions and the level of disposable consumer income, consumer debt, interest rates and consumer confidence as well as the impact of adverse weather conditions. In addition, fluctuations in the amount of sales in any fiscal quarter are affected by the timing of seasonal wholesale shipments and other events affecting direct-to-consumer sales; as such, the financial results for any particular quarter may not be indicative of results for the fiscal year. We expect such seasonality to continue.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The preparation of these financial statements requires estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of our assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Management bases estimates on historical experience and other assumptions it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances and evaluates these estimates on an on-going basis. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

While our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 1 "Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this Annual Report, we believe the following discussion addresses our most critical accounting estimates, which involve significant subjectivity and judgment, and changes to such estimates or assumptions could have a material impact on our financial condition or operating results. Therefore, we consider an understanding of the variability and judgment required in making these estimates and assumptions to be critical in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results. With respect to critical accounting estimates, even a relatively minor variance between actual and expected experience can potentially have a materially favorable or unfavorable impact on subsequent consolidated results of operations. For more information on our accounting estimates and policies, please refer to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in this Annual Report.

Revenue Recognition and Reserves for Allowances

The Company recognizes revenue when performance obligations identified under the terms of contracts with its customers are satisfied, which generally occurs upon the transfer of control in accordance with the contractual terms and conditions of the sale. Sales are recognized when the control of the goods are transferred to the customer for the Company's wholesale business, upon receipt by the customer for the Company's e-commerce businesses, and at the time of sale to the consumer for the Company's retail business. Sales are measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring goods, which includes estimates for variable consideration. Variable consideration mainly includes discounts, chargebacks, markdown allowances, cooperative advertising programs, and sales returns. Estimated amounts of discounts, chargebacks, markdown allowances, cooperative advertising programs, and sales returns are accounted for as reductions of sales when the associated sale occurs. These estimated amounts are adjusted periodically based on changes in facts and circumstances when the changes become known. On the Company's consolidated balance sheet, reserves for sales returns are included within other accrued liabilities, and the value of inventory associated with reserves for sales returns are included in prepaid expenses and other current assets. The Company continues to estimate the amount of sales returns based on known trends and historical return rates.

Accounts receivable are recorded net of allowances for expected future chargebacks and estimated margin support from wholesale partners. It is the nature of the apparel and fashion industry that suppliers like us face significant pressure from wholesale partners in the retail industry to provide allowances to compensate for their margin shortfalls. This pressure often takes the form of

34

customers requiring us to provide price concessions on prior shipments as a prerequisite for obtaining future orders. Pressure for these concessions is largely determined by overall retail sales performance and, more specifically, the performance of our products at retail. To the extent our wholesale partners have more of our goods on hand at the end of the season, there will be greater pressure for us to grant markdown concessions on prior shipments. Our accounts receivable balances are reported net of expected allowances for these matters based on the historical level of concessions required and our estimates of the level of markdowns and allowances that will be required in the coming season. We evaluate the allowance balances on a continual basis and adjust them as necessary to reflect changes in anticipated allowance activity.

At February 1, 2025, a hypothetical 1% change in the reserves for allowances would have resulted in a change of $69 in accounts receivable and net sales.

Inventory Valuation

Inventory values are reduced to net realizable value when there are factors indicating that certain inventories will not be sold on terms sufficient to recover their cost. Out-of-season inventories may be sold to off-price retailers and other customers who serve a customer base that will purchase prior year fashions and may be liquidated through our outlets and our e-commerce websites. The amount, if any, that these customers will pay for prior year fashions is determined by the desirability of the inventory itself as well as the general level of prior year goods available to these customers. The assessment of inventory value, as a result, is highly subjective and requires an assessment of the seasonality of the inventory, its future desirability, and future price levels in the off-price sector.

In our wholesale businesses, some of our products are purchased for and sold to specific customers' orders. For the remainder of our business, products are purchased in anticipation of selling them to a specific customer based on historical trends. The loss of a major customer, whether due to the customer's financial difficulty or other reasons, could have a significant negative impact on the value of the inventory expected to be sold to that customer. This negative impact can also extend to inventory in-transit for which ownership has transferred to the Company. These obligations involve product to be received into inventory over the next one to six months.

At February 1, 2025, a hypothetical 1% change in the inventory obsolescence reserve would have resulted in a change of $25 in inventory, net of cost of products sold.

Fair Value Assessment of Goodwill

Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually and in an interim period if a triggering event occurs.

An entity may elect to perform a qualitative impairment assessment for goodwill. If adverse qualitative trends are identified during the qualitative assessment that indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, a quantitative impairment test is required. "Step one" of the quantitative impairment test for goodwill requires an entity to determine the fair value of each reporting unit and compare such fair value to the respective carrying amount. If the estimated fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the net assets assigned to that reporting unit, goodwill is not impaired, and we are not required to perform further testing. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value, an impairment loss is recorded for the amount by which a reporting unit's carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. The goodwill impairment test is dependent on a number of factors, including estimates of projected revenues, EBITDA margins, long-term growth rates, working capital, and discount rates. We base our estimates on assumptions we believe to be reasonable, but which are unpredictable and inherently uncertain. Actual future results may differ from those estimates.

An entity may pass on performing the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit and directly perform the quantitative assessment. This determination can be made on an asset by asset basis, and an entity may resume performing a qualitative assessment in subsequent periods.

In both fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, the Company performed its annual impairment test during the fourth quarter. In fiscal 2024, concurrent with the performance of the annual impairment test, the P180 Acquisition was consummated (see Note 2 "Recent Transactions" for additional information). As the P180 Acquisition represented a change of control transaction with an unrelated third party, the fair value of the Company’s Vince Wholesale reporting unit was estimated based on the transaction price of the P180 Acquisition. The estimated fair value of the Company implied by the P180 Acquisition was allocated to the Company’s reporting units, Vince Wholesale and Vince Direct-to-consumer, using a market-based approach, considering the relative contributions of each reporting unit to the Company as well as appropriate valuation multiples for each reporting unit relative to the implied P180 Acquisition multiple. The results of this quantitative test determined that the fair value of the Vince Wholesale reporting unit was below its carrying value by an amount greater than its total goodwill balance. As a result, the Company recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $31,973 to write-off the goodwill for the Vince Wholesale reporting unit. The charge was recorded within Impairment of goodwill on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024.

35

In fiscal 2023, the Company elected to perform a quantitative impairment test on goodwill allocated to the Company’s Vince Wholesale reporting unit. The results of the quantitative test did not result in any impairment because the fair value of the Company’s Vince Wholesale reporting unit exceeded its carrying value.

Goodwill was $0 and $31,973 as of February 1, 2025 and February 3, 2024, respectively.

Property and Equipment, Operating Lease Assets and Other Finite-Lived Intangible Assets

The Company reviews its property and equipment, operating lease assets and finite-lived intangible assets for impairment when the existence of facts and circumstances indicate that the useful life is shorter than previously estimated or that the carrying amount of the asset groups to which these assets relate may not be recoverable. The asset group is defined as the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are available and largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets, which for our retail stores is at the store level. Recoverability of these assets is evaluated by comparing the carrying value of the asset group with its estimated future undiscounted cash flows. If the comparisons indicate that the value of the asset is not recoverable, an impairment loss is calculated as the difference between the carrying value and the fair value of the assets within the asset group and the loss is recognized during that period. The estimates regarding recoverability and fair value can be affected by factors such as future store results, real estate demand, store closure plans, and economic conditions that can be difficult to predict.

On April 21, 2023, the Company entered into the Authentic Transaction with Authentic and as a result, the Vince tradename and Vince customer relationships were classified as held for sale and amortization of the Vince customer relationships ceased. The Company closed the Asset Sale on May 25, 2023, and therefore no longer carried finite-lived intangible assets as of February 3, 2024. See Note 2 "Recent Transactions" for further information.

Income taxes and Valuation Allowances

We account for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities at enacted rates. We assess the likelihood of the realization of deferred tax assets and adjust the carrying amount of these deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance to the extent we believe it more likely than not that all or a portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. We consider many factors when assessing the likelihood of future realization of deferred tax assets, including recent earnings results within taxing jurisdictions, expectations of future taxable income, the carryforward periods available and other relevant factors. Changes in the required valuation allowance are recorded in income in the period such determination is made. Significant judgment is required in determining the provision for income taxes. Changes in estimates may create volatility in our effective tax rate in future periods for various reasons, including changes in tax laws or rates, changes in forecasted amounts of pretax income (loss), settlements with various tax authorities, either favorable or unfavorable, the expiration of the statute of limitations on some tax positions and obtaining new information about particular tax positions that may cause management to change its estimates. The ultimate tax outcome is uncertain for certain transactions. We recognize tax positions in our Consolidated Balance Sheets as the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement with tax authorities assuming full knowledge of the position and all relevant facts.

Due to the uncertain nature of the realization of our deferred income tax assets, during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016, we recorded valuation allowances within Provision for income taxes on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). During fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, the Company maintained a full valuation allowance on all deferred tax assets that have a definite life as we do not believe it is more likely than not that such deferred tax assets will be recognized. Indefinite-lived net operating losses have been recognized to the extent we believe they can be utilized against indefinite-lived deferred tax liabilities. This valuation allowance is subject to periodic review, and if the allowance is reduced, the tax benefit will be recorded in the future operations as a reduction of our income tax expense.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Attached as exhibits to this Annual Report are certifications of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Rule 13a-14 of the Exchange Act requires that we include these certifications with this report. This Controls and Procedures section includes information concerning the disclosure controls and procedures referred to in the certifications. You should read this section in conjunction with the certifications.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, management has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of February 1, 2025.

Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting as described below.

As a result of the material weakness identified, we performed additional analysis, substantive testing and other post-closing procedures intended to ensure that our consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, management believes that the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K fairly present, in all material respects, the Company's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act), that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended February 1, 2025 that have materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of February 1, 2025. In making this assessment, management used the criteria established by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO") in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013). Based on this assessment, management has concluded that, as of February 1, 2025, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective, as management identified a deficiency in internal control over financial reporting that was determined to rise to the level of a material weakness. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

37

We previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended February 3, 2024, as well as in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for each interim period in fiscal 2024, a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting relating to the following:

IT general controls

We did not maintain adequate user access controls to ensure appropriate segregation of duties and to adequately restrict access to financial applications and data.

This material weakness did not result in a material misstatement to the annual or interim consolidated financial statements. However, this material weakness could impact the effectiveness of IT-dependent controls (such as automated controls that address the risk of material misstatement to one or more assertions, along with the IT controls and underlying data that support the effectiveness of system-generated data and reports) that could result in a misstatement impacting account balances or disclosures that would result in a material misstatement to the annual or interim consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the company to provide only management's report in this Annual Report.

Remediation Efforts to Address the Material Weakness

To date, we made continued progress on our comprehensive remediation plan related to this material weakness by implementing the following controls and procedures:

•
The Company modified its system access rights to limit the use of generic ID's, particularly in instances where those ID's possessed privileged access rights
•
The Company effectively designed and implemented a full recertification of AX user access rights, and;
•
Improved operational processes around user provisioning and de-provisioning and enhanced general security controls and standards.

To fully address the remediation of deficiencies related to segregation of duties, we will need to fully remediate the deficiencies regarding systems access.

Management continues to follow a comprehensive remediation plan to fully address this material weakness. The remediation plan includes implementing and effectively operating controls related to the routine reviews of user system access and user re-certifications, inclusive of those related to users with privileged access, as well as, to ensure user's access rights to systems are removed timely upon termination.

While we have reported a material weakness that is not yet remediated, we believe we have made continued progress in addressing financial, compliance, and operational risks and improving controls across the Company. Until the material weakness is remediated, we will continue to perform additional analysis, substantive testing, and other post-closing procedures to ensure that our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Accordingly, our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of our disclosure system are met. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Report of Independent Registe red Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Vince Holding Corp.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Vince Holding Corp. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of February 1, 2025 and February 3, 2024, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), of stockholders’ equity and of cash flows for the years then ended, including the related notes and financial statement schedule listed in the index appearing on page F-1 for the years ended February 1, 2025 and February 3, 2024 (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of February 1, 2025 and February 3, 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matters

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Revenue Recognition

As described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company recognizes revenue when performance obligations identified under the terms of contracts with its customers are satisfied, which generally occurs upon the transfer of control in accordance with the contractual terms and conditions of the sale. Sales are recognized when the control of the goods are transferred to the customer for the Company's wholesale business, upon receipt by the customer for the Company's e-commerce business, and at the time of sale to the consumer for the Company's retail business. The Company’s net sales were $293.5 million for the year ended February 1, 2025.

The principal consideration for our determination that performing procedures relating to revenue recognition is a critical audit matter is a high degree of auditor effort in performing procedures related to the Company’s revenue recognition.

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included, among others, (i) testing revenue recognized for a sample of revenue transactions by obtaining and inspecting source documents, such as sales orders, invoices, shipping and delivery documents, and payment receipts from customers and (ii) for the wholesale business, confirming a sample of outstanding customer invoice balances

as of February 1, 2025 and, for confirmations not returned, obtaining and inspecting source documents, such as invoices, proof of shipment, and subsequent payment receipts.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(In thousands, except per share data and share amounts)

Note 1. Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(A) Description of Business: The Company is a global retail company that operates the Vince brand women's and men's ready to wear business. Vince, established in 2002, is a leading global luxury apparel and accessories brand best known for creating elevated yet understated pieces for every day effortless style. Previously, the Company also owned and operated the Rebecca Taylor and Parker brands until the sale of the respective intellectual property was completed, as discussed below.

On April 21, 2023 the Company entered into a strategic partnership ("Authentic Transaction") with Authentic Brands Group, LLC ("Authentic"), a global brand development, marketing and entertainment platform, whereby the Company contributed its intellectual property to a newly formed Authentic subsidiary ("ABG Vince") for cash consideration and a membership interest in ABG Vince. The Company closed the Asset Sale (as defined below) on May 25, 2023. On May 25, 2023, in connection with the Authentic Transaction, V Opco, LLC (formerly, Vince, LLC) ("V Opco"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a License Agreement (the "License Agreement") with ABG-Vince LLC, which provides V Opco with an exclusive, long-term license to use the Licensed Property in the Territory to the Approved Accounts (each as defined in the License Agreement). See Note 2 "Recent Transactions" for additional information.

Rebecca Taylor, founded in 1996 in New York City, was a contemporary womenswear line lauded for its signature prints, romantic detailing and vintage inspired aesthetic, reimagined for a modern era. On September 12, 2022, the Company announced its decision to wind down the Rebecca Taylor business. On December 22, 2022, the Company's indirectly wholly owned subsidiary, Rebecca Taylor, Inc., completed the sale of its intellectual property and certain related ancillary assets to RT IPCO, LLC, an affiliate of Ramani Group. On May 3, 2024, V Opco completed the sale of all outstanding shares of Rebecca Taylor, Inc., which held the Rebecca Taylor business prior to the wind down, to Nova Acquisitions, LLC. See Note 2 "Recent Transactions" for further information.

Parker, founded in 2008 in New York City, was a contemporary women's fashion brand that was trend focused. During the first half of fiscal 2020 the Company decided to pause the creation of new products for the Parker brand to focus resources on the operations of the Vince and Rebecca Taylor brands. On February 17, 2023, the Company's indirectly wholly owned subsidiary, Parker Lifestyle, LLC, completed the sale of its intellectual property and certain related ancillary assets to Parker IP Co. LLC, an affiliate of BCI Brands. See Note 2 "Recent Transactions" for additional information.

On January 22, 2025, P180, a venture focused on accelerating growth and profitability in the luxury apparel sector, acquired a majority stake in the Company (the “P180 Acquisition”) from affiliates of Sun Capital Partners, Inc. (collectively, “Sun Capital”). Simultaneously with the P180 Acquisition, V Opco amended its existing credit agreement with Bank of America, N.A. (“BofA”). The amendment consented to, among other things, the change in control in connection with the P180 Acquisition, as well as a partial pay down of the subordinated debt with SK Financial Services, LLC, an affiliate of Sun Capital, through increased borrowings under the credit agreement with BofA. On the same day, V Opco paid $15,000 to SK Financial Services, LLC using proceeds from the credit facility, which resulted in a pay-down of $20,000 of the subordinated debt (the “Sun Debt Paydown”).

In addition, in connection with the P180 Acquisition, P180 acquired and assumed $7,000 of the loans outstanding pursuant to the subordinated debt and immediately thereafter cancelled such $7,000 (the “P180 Debt Forgiveness”). Following the Sun Debt Paydown and P180 Debt Forgiveness, the outstanding principal amount of subordinated debt was reduced by approximately $27,000 with $7,500 remaining outstanding, which will continue to accrue payment-in-kind interest in accordance with, and otherwise be subject to, the terms and conditions therein. See Note 2 "Recent Transactions" for additional information.

The Company reaches its customers through a variety of channels, specifically through major wholesale department stores and specialty stores in the United States ("U.S.") and select international markets, as well as through the Company's branded retail locations and the Company's websites. The Company designs products in the U.S. and sources the vast majority of products from contract manufacturers outside the U.S., primarily in Asia. Products are manufactured to meet the Company's product specifications and labor standards.

(B) Basis of Presentation: The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").

The consolidated financial statements include the Company's accounts and the accounts of the Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries as of February 1, 2025. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, the financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) and disclosures necessary for a fair presentation.

F-8

(C) Fiscal Year: The Company operates on a fiscal calendar widely used by the retail industry that results in a given fiscal year consisting of a 52 or 53-week period ending on the Saturday closest to January 31.

•
References to "fiscal year 2024" or "fiscal 2024" refer to the fiscal year ended February 1, 2025; and
•
References to "fiscal year 2023" or "fiscal 2023" refer to the fiscal year ended February 3, 2024.

Fiscal year 2024 consisted of a 52-week period and fiscal year 2023 consisted of a 53-week period.

(D) Sources and Uses of Liquidity: The Company's sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents, cash flows from operations, if any, borrowings available under the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility (as defined in Note 5 "Long-Term Debt and Financing Arrangements") and the Company's ability to access the capital markets, including the Sales Agreement entered into with Virtu Americas LLC in June 2023 (see Note 9 "Stockholders' Equity" for further information). The Company's primary cash needs are funding working capital requirements, including royalty payments under the License Agreement, meeting debt service requirements and capital expenditures for new stores and related leasehold improvements. The most significant components of the Company's working capital are cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, inventories, accounts payable and other current liabilities.

The Company’s future financial results may be subject to substantial fluctuations, and may be impacted by business conditions and macroeconomic factors, particularly in light of the recently implemented tariffs . While we expect to meet our monthly Excess Availability (as defined in the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility Agreement) covenant and believe that our other sources of liquidity will generate sufficient cash flows to meet our obligations for the next twelve months from the date these financial statements are issued, the foregoing expectation is dependent on a number of factors, including, among others, our ability to generate sufficient cash flow from a combination of tariff mitigating initiatives, our ongoing ability to manage our operating obligations, the ability of our partners to satisfy their payment obligations to us when due, the results of the currently ongoing inventory valuation and potential borrowing restrictions imposed by our lenders based on their credit judgment, all of which could be significantly and negatively impacted by the recently implemented and new retaliatory and/or reciprocal tariffs, as well as changing trade policies between the U.S. and its trading partners, in addition to other macroeconomic factors. Any material negative impact from these factors or others could require us to implement alternative plans to satisfy our liquidity needs which may be unsuccessful. In the event that we are unable to timely service our debt, meet other contractual payment obligations or fund our other liquidity needs, we may need to refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness before maturity, seek waivers of or amendments to our contractual obligations for payment, reduce or delay scheduled expansions and capital expenditures, liquidate inventory through additional discounting, sell material assets or operations, or seek other financing opportunities. There can be no assurance that these options would be readily available to us and our inability to address our liquidity needs could materially and adversely affect our operations and jeopardize our business, financial condition and results of operations.

(E) Use of Estimates: The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires that management 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 which affect revenues and expenses during the period reported. Estimates are adjusted when necessary to reflect actual experience. Significant estimates and assumptions may affect many items in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from estimates and assumptions in amounts that may be material to the consolidated financial statements.

(F) Cash and cash equivalents: All demand deposits and highly liquid short-term deposits with original maturities of three months or less are considered cash equivalents.

(G) Accounts Receivable and Concentration of Credit Risk: The Company maintains an allowance for accounts receivable estimated to be uncollectible. The adjustments to the provision are recorded in Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expense. Substantially all of the Company's trade receivables are derived from sales to retailers and are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its wholesale partners' financial condition and requires collateral as deemed necessary. The past due status of a receivable is based on its contractual terms. Account balances are charged off against the allowance when it is probable the receivable will not be collected.

Accounts receivable are recorded net of allowances including expected future chargebacks from wholesale partners and estimated margin support. It is the nature of the apparel and fashion industry that suppliers similar to the Company face significant pressure from customers in the retail industry to provide allowances to compensate for wholesale partner margin shortfalls. This pressure often takes the form of customers requiring the Company to provide price concessions on prior shipments as a prerequisite for obtaining future orders. Pressure for these concessions is largely determined by overall retail sales performance and, more specifically, the performance of the Company's products at retail. To the extent the Company's wholesale partners have more of the Company's goods on hand at the end of the season, there will be greater pressure for the Company to grant markdown concessions on prior shipments. Accounts receivable balances are reported net of expected allowances for these matters based on the historical level of concessions required and estimates of the level of markdowns and allowances that will be required in the coming season. The

F-9

Company evaluates the allowance balances on a continual basis and adjusts them as necessary to reflect changes in anticipated allowance activity. The Company also provides an allowance for sales returns based on known trends and historical return rates.

In fiscal 2024 and 2023, sales to one wholesale partner accounted for more than ten percent of the Company's net sales. Sales to this partner represented 26% of fiscal 2024 net sales and 20% of fiscal 2023 net sales.

Two wholesale partners represented greater than ten percent of the Company's gross accounts receivable balances as of the end of both fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023. One partner represented 32% and 36% as of February 1, 2025 and February 3, 2024, respectively, and the other represented 24% and 22% as of February 1, 2025 and February 3, 2024, respectively. In addition, another wholesale partner represented greater than ten percent of the Company's gross accounts receivable balance as of February 1, 2025, with 14% of such balance.

(H) Inventories: Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined on the first-in, first-out basis. The cost of inventory includes purchase cost as well as sourcing, transportation, duty, and other processing costs associated with acquiring, importing, and preparing inventory for sale. Inventory costs are included in cost of products sold at the time of their sale. Product development costs are expensed in SG&A expense when incurred. Inventory values are reduced to net realizable value when there are factors indicating that certain inventories will not be sold on terms sufficient to recover their cost. Inventories consist of finished goods. As of February 1, 2025 and February 3, 2024 finished goods, net of reserves were $59,146 and $58,777, resp ectively.

The Company has three major suppliers that accounted for approximately 16%, 16% and 13%, respectively, of inventory purchases for fiscal 2024. In fiscal 2023, the Company had two major suppliers that accounted for approximately 18% and 17%, respectively, of inventory purchases. Amounts due to these suppliers were $4,021 as of February 1, 2025 and $1,509 as of February 3, 2024, and were included in Accounts payable in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

(I) Property and Equipment: Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of three to ten years for furniture, fixtures, and equipment. Leasehold improvements are depreciated on the straight-line basis over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the lease term, excluding renewal terms. Capitalized software is depreciated on the straight-line basis over the estimated economic useful life of the software, generally three to seven years. Maintenance and repair costs are charged to earnings while expenditures for major renewals and improvements are capitalized. Upon the disposition of property and equipment, the accumulated depreciation is deducted from the original cost and any gain or loss is reflected in current earnings. Property and equipment consisted of the following:

|  | February 1, |  |  | February 3, |
(in thousands) |  | 2025 |  |  | 2024 |
Leasehold improvements |  | $ | 30,009 |  |  | $ | 32,694 |
Furniture, fixtures and equipment |  |  | 9,716 |  |  |  | 9,748 |
Capitalized software |  |  | 14,696 |  |  |  | 14,775 |
Construction in process |  |  | 1,026 |  |  |  | 585 |
Total property and equipment |  |  | 55,447 |  |  |  | 57,802 |
Less: accumulated depreciation |  |  | (48,069 | ) |  |  | (50,830 | )
Property and equipment, net |  | $ | 7,378 |  |  | $ | 6,972 |

Depreciation expense was $3,887 and $4,692 for fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, respectively.

(J) Impairment of Long-lived Assets: The Company reviews long-lived assets which consist of property and equipment and operating lease assets when the existence of facts and circumstances indicate that the useful life is shorter than previously estimated or that the carrying amount of the asset groups to which these assets relate may not be recoverable. The asset group is defined as the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are available and largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets, which for our retail stores is at the store level. Recoverability of these assets is evaluated by comparing the carrying value of the asset group with its estimated future undiscounted cash flows. The recoverability assessment is dependent on a number of factors, including estimates of future growth and profitability, as well as other variables. If the comparisons indicate that the value of the asset is not recoverable, an impairment loss is calculated as the difference between the carrying value and the fair value of the assets within the asset group and the loss is recognized during that period. The fair value of the operating lease right-of-use assets is determined from the perspective of a market participant considering various factors. The judgments and assumptions used in determining the fair value of the operating lease right-of-use assets are the current comparable market rents for similar properties and a store discount rate. The fair value of the property and equipment is based on its estimated liquidation value. The estimates regarding recoverability and fair value can be affected by factors such as future store results, real estate demand, store closure plans, and economic conditions that can be difficult to predict.

There were no impairment charges during fiscal 2024 and 2023.

F-10

(K) Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets: Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually and in an interim period if a triggering event occurs.

Goodwill is not allocated to the Company's operating segments in the measure of segment assets regularly reported to and used by management; however, goodwill is allocated to operating segments (goodwill reporting units) for the purpose of the annual impairment test for goodwill.

Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of acquired businesses over the fair market value of the identifiable net assets. As of January 28, 2023, the indefinite-lived intangible asset was the Vince tradename. On April 21, 2023, the Company entered into the Authentic Transaction with Authentic and as a result, the Vince tradename and Vince customer relationships were classified as held for sale and amortization of the Vince customer relationships ceased. The Company closed the Asset Sale on May 25, 2023. See Note 2 "Recent Transactions" for further information.

On February 17, 2023, the Company completed the sale of the Parker tradename and certain related ancillary assets to Parker IP Co. LLC, an affiliate of BCI Brands. See Note 2 "Recent Transactions" for further information.

An entity may elect to perform a qualitative impairment assessment for goodwill. If adverse qualitative trends are identified during the qualitative assessment that indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, a quantitative impairment test is required. "Step one" of the quantitative impairment test for goodwill requires an entity to determine the fair value of each reporting unit and compare such fair value to the respective carrying amount. If the estimated fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the net assets assigned to that reporting unit, goodwill is not impaired, and the Company is not required to perform further testing. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value, an impairment loss is recorded for the amount by which a reporting unit's carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill.

An entity may pass on performing the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit and directly perform the quantitative assessment. An entity may resume performing a qualitative assessment in subsequent periods.

Determining the fair value of goodwill is judgmental in nature and requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including, when a discounted cash flows method is used, estimates of projected revenues, EBITDA margins, long-term growth rates, working capital, and discount rates. It is possible that estimates of future operating results could change adversely and impact the evaluation of the recoverability of the carrying value of goodwill and that the effect of such changes could be material.

In fiscal 2024, the Company performed its annual impairment test during the fourth quarter. Concurrent with the performance of the annual impairment test, the P180 Acquisition was consummated. As the P180 Acquisition represented a change of control transaction with an unrelated third party, the fair value of the Company’s Vince Wholesale reporting unit was estimated based on the transaction price of the P180 Acquisition. The estimated fair value of the Company implied by the P180 Acquisition was allocated to the Company’s reporting units, Vince Wholesale and Vince Direct-to-consumer, using a market-based approach, considering the relative contributions of each reporting unit to the Company as well as appropriate valuation multiples for each reporting unit relative to the implied P180 Acquisition multiple. The results of the quantitative test determined that the fair value of the Vince Wholesale reporting unit was below its carrying value by an amount greater than its total goodwill balance and as a result, the Company recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $31,973 to write-off the goodwill for the Vince Wholesale reporting unit. The charge was recorded within Impairment of goodwill on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024.

In fiscal 2023, the Company performed its annual impairment test during the fourth quarter. The fair value of the Company's Vince Wholesale reporting unit was estimated using a combination of the income approach (the discounted cash flows method) and the market approach (guideline public company method). In fiscal 2023, the Company elected to perform a quantitative impairment test on goodwill allocated to the Company's Vince Wholesale reporting unit. The results of the quantitative test did not result in any impairment because the fair value of the Company's Vince Wholesale reporting unit exceeded its carrying value. Goodwill was $31,973 as of February 3, 2024.

See Note 3 "Goodwill and Intangible Assets" for more information on the details surrounding goodwill and intangible assets.

(L) Deferred Financing Costs: Deferred financing costs, such as underwriting, financial advisory, professional fees, and other similar fees are capitalized and recognized in interest expense over the contractual life of the related debt instrument using the straight-line method, as this method results in recognition of interest expense that is materially consistent with that of the effective interest method.

(M) Leases: The Company determines if a contract contains a lease at inception. The Company leases various office spaces, showrooms and retail stores. Although certain recent leases are subject to shorter terms as a result of the implementation of the strategy to pursue shorter lease terms when evaluating certain markets, some of the Company's leases have initial terms of 10 years, and in many instances can be extended for an additional term. The Company will not include renewal options in the underlying lease

F-11

term unless the Company is reasonably certain to exercise the renewal option. Substantially all of the Company's leases require a fixed annual rent, and most require the payment of additional rent if store sales exceed a negotiated amount. These percentage rent expenses are considered as variable lease costs and are recognized in the consolidated financial statements when incurred. In addition, the Company's real estate leases may also require additional payments for real estate taxes and other occupancy-related costs which it considers as non-lease components.

Operating lease right-of-use ("ROU") assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based upon the present value of the future lease payments over the lease term. As the Company's leases do not provide an implicit borrowing rate, the Company uses an estimated incremental borrowing rate based upon a combination of market-based factors, such as market quoted forward yield curves and company specific factors, such as the Company's credit rating, lease size and duration to calculate the present value.

(N) Revenue Recognition: The Company recognizes revenue when performance obligations identified under the terms of contracts with its customers are satisfied, which generally occurs upon the transfer of control in accordance with the contractual terms and conditions of the sale. Sales are recognized when the control of the goods are transferred to the customer for the Company's wholesale business, upon receipt by the customer for the Company's e-commerce business, and at the time of sale to the consumer for the Company's retail business. See Note 13 "Segment and Geographical Financial Information" for disaggregated revenue amounts by segment.

Revenue associated with gift cards is recognized upon redemption and unredeemed balances are considered a contract liability and recorded within Other accrued expenses, which are subject to escheatment within the jurisdictions in which it operates. As of February 1, 2025 and February 3, 2024, the contract liability was $1,544 and $1,628, respectively. In fiscal 2024, the Company recognized $265 of revenue that was previously included in the contract liability as of February 3, 2024.

Amounts billed to customers for shipping and handling costs are not material. Such shipping and handling costs are accounted for as a fulfillment cost and are included in cost of products sold. Sales taxes that are collected by the Company from a customer are excluded from revenue.

Sales are measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring goods, which includes estimates for variable consideration. Variable consideration mainly includes discounts, chargebacks, markdown allowances, cooperative advertising programs, and sales returns. Estimated amounts of discounts, chargebacks, markdown allowances, cooperative advertising programs, and sales returns are accounted for as reductions of sales when the associated sale occurs. These estimated amounts are adjusted periodically based on changes in facts and circumstances when the changes become known. On the Company's consolidated balance sheet, reserves for sales returns are included within other accrued liabilities, and the value of inventory associated with reserves for sales returns are included in prepaid expenses and other current assets. The Company continues to estimate the amount of sales returns based on known trends and historical return rates.

(O) Cost of Products Sold: The Company's cost of products sold and gross margins may not necessarily be comparable to that of other entities as a result of different practices in categorizing costs. The primary components of the Company's cost of products sold are as follows:

•
the cost of purchased merchandise, including raw materials;
•
the cost of inbound transportation, including freight;
•
the cost of the Company's production and sourcing departments;
•
other processing costs associated with acquiring and preparing the inventory for sale; and
•
shrink and valuation reserves.

(P) Marketing and Advertising: The Company provides cooperative advertising allowances to certain of its customers. These allowances are accounted for as reductions in sales as discussed in "Revenue Recognition" above. Production expense related to company-directed advertising is deferred until the first time at which the advertisement runs. All other expenses related to company-directed advertising are expensed as incurred. Marketing and advertising expense recorded in SG&A expenses was $12,532 and $11,843 in fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, respectively. At February 1, 2025 and February 3, 2024, deferred production expenses associated with company-directed advertising w ere $792 and $698, respectively.

(Q) Share-Based Compensation: New, modified and unvested share-based payment transactions with employees, such as stock options and restricted stock units, are measured at fair value and recognized as compensation expense over the requisite service period and is included as a component of SG&A expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). Forfeitures are accounted for as they occur.

F-12

(R) Income Taxes: The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities at enacted rates. The Company assesses the likelihood of the realization of deferred tax assets and adjusts the carrying amount of these deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance to the extent the Company believes it more likely than not that all or a portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Many factors are considered when assessing the likelihood of future realization of deferred tax assets, including recent earnings results within taxing jurisdictions, expectations of future taxable income, the carryforward periods available and other relevant factors. Changes in the required valuation allowance are recorded in income in the period such determination is made. The Company recognizes tax positions in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement with tax authorities assuming full knowledge of the position and all relevant facts. Accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits are included in income taxes in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).

(S) Earnings (Loss) Per Share: Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Except when the effect would be anti-dilutive, diluted earnings per share is calculated based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus the dilutive effect of share-based awards calculated under the treasury stock method.

(T) Recent Accounting Pronouncements: Except as noted below, the Company has considered all recent accounting pronouncements and has concluded that there are no recent accounting pronouncements that may have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements, based on current information.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-07: Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which updates reportable segment disclosure requirements primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. All disclosure requirements under ASU 2023-07 are also required for public entities with a single reportable segment. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this pronouncement in fiscal 2024 and retrospectively to all prior periods using the significant segment expense categories identified. The impact of the adoption of the amendments in this update was no t material to the Company’s financial position and results of operations, as the requirements impact only segment reporting disclosures in the footnotes to the Company’s financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09: Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires expanded disclosure within the rate reconciliation as well as disaggregation of annual taxes paid. This amendment is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, and is applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this new guidance may have on its financial statement disclosures.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03: Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. The ASU is intended to improve disclosures about a public business entity's expenses, primarily through additional disaggregation of income statement expenses. The FASB further clarified the effective date in January 2025 with the issuance of ASU 2025-01: Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The requirements of the ASU will be applied prospectively with the option for retrospective application. We are currently evaluating the ASU to determine the impact on the Company's disclosures.

Note 2. Recent Transactions

Wind Down of Rebecca Taylor Business

On September 12, 2022, the Company announced its decision to wind down the Rebecca Taylor business. On September 30, 2022, the Company entered into amendments to the Term Loan Credit Facility, the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility and the Third Lien Credit Facility (as defined in Note 5 "Long-Term Debt and Financing Arrangements"), which in part, permitted the sale of the intellectual property of the Rebecca Taylor, Inc. and the Rebecca Taylor, Inc. liquidation. On December 22, 2022, the Company's indirectly wholly owned subsidiary, Rebecca Taylor, Inc., completed the sale of its intellectual property and certain related ancillary assets to RT IPCO, LLC, an affiliate of Ramani Group.

On July 7, 2023, Rebecca Taylor, Inc. and Rebecca Taylor Retail Stores, LLC, each as an assignor, made a General Assignment for the Benefit of the Creditors (the "Assignment") to a respective assignee, an unaffiliated California limited liability company, pursuant to California state law. The Assignment resulted in the residual rights and assets of each of Rebecca Taylor, Inc. and Rebecca Taylor Retail Stores, LLC being assigned and transferred to such assignees. As a result, Rebecca Taylor, Inc. and Rebecca Taylor Retail Stores, LLC no longer held any assets.

On May 3, 2024, V Opco, LLC (formerly, Vince, LLC) ("V Opco") completed the sale of all outstanding shares of Rebecca Taylor, Inc., which held the Rebecca Taylor business prior to the wind-down, to Nova Acquisitions, LLC. Nova Acquisitions, LLC is wholly owned by James Carroll, who served as the sole director and officer of Rebecca Taylor, Inc. at the time of the Transaction, pursuant to a service agreement between Mr. Carroll and Rebecca Taylor, Inc. that was previously entered into in September 2022 in connection with the wind-down. While serving as the sole director and officer of Rebecca Taylor, Inc., Mr. Carroll did not serve as an agent to the Company and was not a related party to the Company. Following the completion of the Transaction, there exists no relationship or arrangement whatsoever between Mr. Carroll and the Company or any of its affiliates. The Transaction was completed pursuant to the SPA, dated May 3, 2024, entered into between the Seller and Nova Acquisitions, LLC. The SPA contains customary representations, warranties and covenants for a transaction of this nature, but does not include any indemnification provisions for the benefit of either party. Following the completion of the Transaction, there is no ongoing involvement between the Company and Rebecca Taylor, Inc. As Rebecca Taylor Inc. was in a net liability position, as a result of the Transaction the Company recognized a gain on sale of subsidiary of $7,634, which is presented in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for fiscal 2024.

There were no Rebecca Taylor wind down related charges (benefits) for fiscal 2024. For fiscal 2023, the Company reported wind down related benefits of $1,750, primarily related to the release of operating lease liabilities as a result of lease terminations.

Sale of Parker Intellectual Property

On February 17, 2023, the Company's indirectly wholly owned subsidiary, Parker Lifestyle, LLC, completed the sale of its intellectual property and certain related ancillary assets to Parker IP Co. LLC, an affiliate of BCI Brands, for $1,025. The Company recognized a gain of $765 on the sale, which was recorded within Gain on sale of intangible assets in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for fiscal 2023. Net cash proceeds from the sale were used to repay $838 of borrowings under the Term Loan Credit Facility (as defined in Note 5 "Long-Term Debt and Financing Arrangements").

Sale of Vince Intellectual Property

On April 21, 2023 the Company entered into the Asset Purchase Agreement (defined below), pursuant to which V Opco agreed to sell and transfer to ABG-Vince LLC (f/k/a ABG-Viking, LLC) ("ABG Vince"), an indirect subsidiary of Authentic, all intellectual property assets related to the business operated under the Vince brand in exchange for total consideration of $76,500 in cash and a 25% membership interest in ABG Vince (the "Asset Sale"). The Asset Sale was consummated in accordance with the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement on May 25, 2023 (the "Closing Date"). Through the agreement, Authentic owns the majority stake of 75% membership interest in ABG Vince.

Upon the closing of the Asset Sale, the Company derecognized the intellectual property assets at their carrying amount of $69,957. In exchange for the Company's sale of its intellectual property assets, which included the Vince tradename and Vince customer relationships, to ABG Vince, Authentic paid $76,500 in cash and a 25% interest in ABG Vince valued at $25,500. As a result, the Company recognized a gain of $32,043, which was recorded within Gain on sale of intangible assets in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) during fiscal 2023. Additionally, during fiscal 2023, the Company incurred total transaction related costs of approximately $5,555. Of these transaction costs, approximately $525 was incurred to acquire the investment in ABG Vince. As such, these costs were included in the initial measurement of the investment and recorded as part of the equity method investment on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The remaining transaction related costs were included in selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expense in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) in fiscal 2023. The Company utilized the net proceeds received to prepay in full the Term Loan Credit

F-14

Facility and to repay a portion of the outstanding borrowings under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility (as defined in Note 5 "Long-Term Debt and Financing Arrangements"). See Note 5 "Long-Term Debt and Financing Arrangements" for further information.

Operating Agreement

On May 25, 2023, in connection with the closing (the "Closing") of the Asset Sale pursuant to the Intellectual Property Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Asset Purchase Agreement"), dated as of April 21, 2023, by and among V Opco, ABG Vince, the Company and ABG Intermediate Holdings 2 LLC, V Opco and ABG Vince entered into an Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of ABG-Vince, LLC (the "Operating Agreement"), which, among other things, provides for the management of the business and the affairs of ABG Vince, the allocation of profits and losses, the distribution of cash of ABG Vince among its members and the rights, obligations and interests of the members to each other and to V Opco.

The Company accounts for its 25% interest in ABG Vince under the equity method. In applying the equity method, the Company recorded the initial investment at cost and subsequently increases or decreases the carrying amount of the investment by the Company's proportionate share of net income or loss. Distributions received from ABG Vince are recognized as a reduction of the carrying amount of the investment. The Company's proportionate share of ABG Vince's net income or loss is recorded within Equity in net income of equity method investment on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). The carrying value for the Company's investment in ABG Vince is recorded within Equity method investment on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company records its share of net income or loss using a one-month lag. This convention does not materially impact the Company's results.

The Company reviews its investment in ABG Vince for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that an other-than-temporary decline in value may have occurred. If the carrying value of the investment exceeds its fair value and the loss in value is other than temporary, the investment is considered impaired and reduced to fair value, and the impairment is recognized in the period identified. Factors providing evidence of such a loss include changes in ABG Vince's operations or financial condition, significant continuing losses, and significant negative economic conditions, among others. During the fiscal years 2024 and 2023 there was no impairment of the investment in ABG Vince.

License Agreement

On May 25, 2023, in connection with the Closing, V Opco and ABG Vince entered into a License Agreement (the "License Agreement"), which provides V Opco with a license to use the Licensed Property in the Territory, which is defined as the United States, Canada, Andorra, Austria, Germany, Switzerland, Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg, France, Monaco, Liechtenstein, Italy, San Marino, Vatican City, Iceland, Norway, Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Spain, Portugal, Greece, Republic of Cyprus (excluding Northern Cyprus), United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, Mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, Singapore, Japan and Korea (the "Core Territory"), together with all other territories (the "Option Territory"), to the Approved Accounts (each as defined in the License Agreement). V Opco is required to operate and maintain a minimum of 45 Retail Stores and Shop-in-Shops in the Territory. The Option Territory may be changed unilaterally by ABG Vince at any time after the effective date of the License Agreement.

Additionally, the License Agreement provides V Opco with a license to use the Licensed Property to design, manufacture, promote, market, distribute, and sell ready-to-wear Sportswear Products and Outerwear Products (the "Core Products") and Home Décor and Baby Layettes (the "Option Products," together with the Core Products, the "Licensed Products"), which Option Products may be changed unilaterally by ABG Vince at any time after the effective date of the License Agreement.

The initial term of the License Agreement began on May 25, 2023, the date on which the Closing actually occurred, and ends at the end of the Company's 2032 fiscal year, unless sooner terminated pursuant to the terms of the License Agreement. V Opco has the option to renew the License Agreement on the terms set forth in the License Agreement for eight consecutive periods of ten years each, unless the License Agreement is sooner terminated pursuant to its terms or V Opco is in material breach of the License Agreement and such breach has not been cured within the specified cure period. V Opco may elect not to renew the term for a renewal term.

V Opco is required to pay ABG Vince a royalty on net sales of Licensed Products and committed to an annual guaranteed minimum royalty of $11,000 and annual minimum net sales as specified in the License Agreement, in each case, during the initial term of the License Agreement, except that the guaranteed minimum royalty and minimum net sales for the first contract year during the initial term was prorated to the period beginning on the Closing Date and ended at the end of the Company's 2023 fiscal year. The annual guaranteed minimum royalty and annual minimum net sales for each subsequent renewal term is equal to the greater of (i) a percentage as set forth in the License Agreement of the guaranteed minimum net royalty or the minimum net sales (as applicable) of the immediately preceding contract year, and (ii) the average of actual Royalties (as defined in the License Agreement, with respect to the guaranteed minimum royalty) or actual Net Sales (as defined in the License Agreement, with respect to the annual minimum net sales) during certain years as set forth in the License Agreement of the preceding initial term or renewal term (as applicable). V Opco

F-15

is required to pay royalties comprised of a low single digit percentage of net sales arising from retail and e-commerce sales of Licensed Products and a mid single digit percentage of net sales arising from wholesale sales of such Licensed Products.

In the event that the annual guaranteed minimum royalty paid to ABG Vince in any given contract year is greater than the actual royalties earned by ABG Vince in the same contract year, the difference between the royalty actually earned and the annual guaranteed minimum royalty paid is credited for the next two contract years against any amount of royalty earned by ABG Vince in excess of the annual guaranteed minimum royalty paid during each such contract year, if any.

Royalty expense is included within Cost of product sold on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).

P180 Acquisition

On January 22, 2025, P180 Vince Acquisition Co. (“P180”) purchased 8,481,318 shares of common stock of the Company, which constituted approximately 67% of the Company’s outstanding common stock, from affiliates of Sun Capital in a privately negotiated stock purchase transaction (the “P180 Acquisition”) for approximately $19,800 in cash. 1,262,933 of these purchased shares were held back at the closing by the affiliates of Sun Capital and all or a portion of such shares will be transferred to P180 in the event the remaining outstanding obligations under the Sun Amended Credit Agreement are purchased by P180 (or any of its affiliates or designees) from SK Financial Services, or otherwise repaid in full, prior to September 22, 2025. P180 will forfeit its right to, and such affiliates of Sun Capital will be entitled to retain, a portion of such held back shares if such purchase or repayment occurs after January 24, 2025, and P180 will forfeit its right to all held back shares if such purchase or repayment does not occur on or prior to September 22, 2025. The affiliates of Sun Capital agreed to various voting, transfer and other restrictions on the held back shares. As of February 1, 2025, the remaining outstanding obligations under the Sun Amended Credit Agreement have not been repurchased by P180 (or any of its affiliates or designees) from SK Financial Services and therefore 252,587 of the shares held back have been forfeited by P180 as of February 1, 2025. See Note 14 "Related Party Transactions" for additional information.

In connection with the P180 Acquisition, on January 22, 2025, V Opco entered into the First Amendment (the “First Amendment”) to its 2023 Revolving Credit Facility or "ABL Credit Agreement", and, simultaneously with the entry into the First Amendment, entered into the Fifth Amendment (the “Third Lien Fifth Amendment”) to its Third Lien Credit Facility or "Sun Credit Agreement" and paid $15,000 to SK Financial Services, LLC with the proceeds from additional borrowings under the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility as repayment of $20,000 in outstanding principal amount of the loans outstanding under the Third Lien Credit Facility (such pay-down transaction, the “Sun Debt Paydown”). In addition, in connection with the P180 Acquisition, P180 acquired and assumed from SK Financial Services LLC approximately $7,000 of the remaining outstanding balance owed by the Company under the Third Lien Credit Facility. Immediately thereafter, P180 agreed to forgive and cancel such $7,000 (the “P180 Debt Forgiveness”) such that there remained outstanding an aggregate of approximately $7,500 under the Third Lien Credit Facility, which will continue to accrue interest in accordance with, and otherwise be subject to the terms and conditions set forth in, the Third Lien Credit Facility. In addition, pursuant to the Debt Forgiveness, P180 and its parent company, P180, Inc., agreed to reimburse the Company for its fees and expenses associated with the transactions relating to the P180 Acquisition. See Note 5 "Long Term Debt and Financing Arrangements" for additional discussion.

The Company determined that the changes to the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility under the First Amendment did not result in a change to the borrowing capacity of the arrangement, and therefore $458 of costs incurred in connection with the First Amendment have been deferred and will be recognized over the term of the arrangement, which is presented within Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The Company determined that modification to the Third Lien Credit Facility under the Fifth Amendment and the corresponding Sun Debt Paydown and P180 Debt Forgiveness should be recorded as debt extinguishment of the Third Lien Credit Facility in accordance with ASC 470. The Company derecognized the old debt and recorded the new debt at fair value in the amount of $7,713, and a gain upon extinguishment in the amount of $11,575. As Sun Capital and affiliates and P180 maintain an equity interest in the Company, the gain on extinguishment was recorded as a capital contribution within equity.

SK Financial Services, LLC is an affiliate of Sun Capital Partners, Inc. (“Sun Capital”), whose affiliates owned approximately 67% of the Company’s outstanding common stock prior to the P180 Acquisition. Immediately following the P180 Acquisition, affiliates of Sun Capital continued to own approximately 10% of the Company’s outstanding common stock. In addition, the P180 Acquisition resulted in accelerated vesting of certain restricted stock units. See Note 7 "Share Based Compensation" for additional information.

Note 3. Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Net goodwill balances and changes therein by segment were as follows:

(in thousands) |  | Vince Wholesale |  |  | Vince Direct-to-consumer |  |  | Total Net Goodwill |
Balance as of February 3, 2024 |  | $ | 31,973 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 31,973 |
Impairment charges |  |  | (31,973 | ) |  |  | — |  |  |  | (31,973 | )
Balance as of February 1, 2025 |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |

The total carrying amount of goodwill was net of accumulated impairments of $133,818 as $101,845 as of February 1, 2025 and February 3, 2024, respectively.

In fiscal 2024, the Company performed its annual impairment test during the fourth quarter. Concurrent with the performance of the annual impairment test, the P180 Acquisition was consummated. As the P180 Acquisition represented a change of control transaction with an unrelated third party, the fair value of the Company’s Vince Wholesale reporting unit was estimated based on the transaction price of the P180 Acquisition. The estimated fair value of the Company implied by the P180 Acquisition was allocated to the Company’s reporting units, Vince Wholesale and Vince Direct-to-consumer, using a market-based approach, considering the relative contributions of each reporting unit to the Company as well as appropriate valuation multiples for each reporting unit relative to the implied P180 Acquisition multiple. The results of the quantitative test determined that the fair value of the Vince Wholesale reporting unit was below its carrying value by an amount greater than its total goodwill balance and as a result, the Company recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $31,973 to write-off the goodwill for the Vince Wholesale reporting unit. The charge was recorded within Impairment of goodwill on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024.

There were no impairments recorded as a result of the Company's annual goodwill impairment test performed during fiscal 2023.

On April 21, 2023, the Company entered into the Authentic Transaction with Authentic and as a result, the Vince tradename and Vince customer relationships were classified as held for sale and amortization of the Vince customer relationships ceased. The Company closed the Asset Sale on May 25, 2023. See Note 2 "Recent Transactions" for further information.

On February 17, 2023, the Company's indirectly wholly owned subsidiary, Parker Lifestyle, LLC, completed the sale of its intellectual property and certain related ancillary assets to Parker IP Co. LLC, an affiliate of BCI Brands. See Note 2 "Recent Transactions" for further information.

Amortization of identifiable intangible assets was $0 and $149 for fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, respectively, which is included in SG&A expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).

Note 4. Fair Value Measurements

We define the fair value of a financial instrument as the amount that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. We are responsible for the determination of the value of the investments carried at fair value and the supporting methodologies and assumptions. The Company's financial assets and liabilities are to be measured using inputs from three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:

| Level 1— |  | quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
| Level 2— |  | observable market-based inputs (quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active) or inputs that are corroborated by observable market data
| Level 3— |  | significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Company's assumptions and are not substantially supported by market data

The Company did no t have any non-financial assets or non-financial liabilities recognized at fair value on a recurring basis at February 1, 2025 or February 3, 2024. At February 1, 2025 and February 3, 2024, the Company believes that the carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, and accounts payable approximate fair value, due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. The Company's debt obligations with a carrying value of $19,156 and $44,209 as of February 1, 2025 and February 3,

F-17

2024, respectively, are at variable interest rates. Borrowings under the Company's 2023 Revolving Credit Facility are recorded at carrying value, which approximates fair value due to the frequent nature of such borrowings and repayments. The Company considers this as a Level 2 input. The carrying values of the Company's Third Lien Credit Facility as of February 1, 2025 and February 3, 2024, approximate fair value, due to the variable rates associated with this obligation. The Company considers this a Level 3 input.

The Company's non-financial assets, which primarily consist of goodwill, operating lease right-of-use ("ROU") assets, and property and equipment, are not required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis and are reported at their carrying values. However, on a periodic basis whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be fully recoverable (and at least annually for goodwill), non-financial assets are assessed for impairment and, if applicable, written down to (and recorded at) fair value.

The following table presents the non-financial assets of the Company measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis in fiscal 2024, based on such fair value hierarchy.

|  | Net Carrying Value of Impaired Assets as of |  |  | Fair Value Measured and Recorded at Reporting Date Using: |  |  | Total Losses - Year Ended |  |
(in thousands) |  | February 1, 2025 |  |  | Level 1 |  |  | Level 2 |  |  | Level 3 |  |  | February 1, 2025 |  |

Note 5. Long-Term Debt and Financing Arrangements

Debt obligations consisted of the following:

|  | February 1, |  |  | February 3, |

On January 22, 2025, V Opco entered into the Fifth Amendment (the “Third Lien Fifth Amendment”) to the Third Lien Credit Agreement which, among other things, consents to the P180 Acquisition. On the same day, V Opco paid $15,000 to SK Financial Services, LLC using proceeds from the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility, which resulted in a pay-down of $20,000 of the Third Lien Credit Facility (the “Sun Debt Paydown”). In addition, in connection with the P180 Acquisition, P180 acquired and assumed $7,000 of the Third Lien Credit Facility outstanding and immediately thereafter cancelled such $7,000 (the “P180 Debt Forgiveness”). Following the Sun Debt Paydown and P180 Debt Forgiveness, the outstanding principal amount of the Third Lien Credit Facility was reduced by approximately $27,000 with $7,500 remaining outstanding, which will continue to accrue payment-in-kind interest in accordance with, and otherwise be subject to, the terms and conditions therein.

The Company determined that modification to the Third Lien Credit Facility under the Fifth Amendment and the corresponding Sun Debt Paydown and P180 Debt Forgiveness should be recorded as debt extinguishment of the Third Lien Credit Facility in accordance with ASC 470. The Company derecognized the old debt and recorded the new debt at fair value in the amount of $7,713, and a gain upon extinguishment in the amount of $11,575. As Sun Capital and affiliates and P180 maintain an equity interest in the Company, the gain on extinguishment was recorded as a capital contribution within equity.

Note 10. (Loss) Earnings Per Share

Basic (loss) earnings per share is calculated by dividing net (loss) income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Except when the effect would be anti-dilutive, diluted earnings per share is calculated based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus the dilutive effect of share-based awards calculated under the treasury stock method. In periods when the Company incurs a net loss, share-based awards are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share as their inclusion would have an anti-dilutive effect.

The following is a reconciliation of weighted average basic shares to weighted average diluted shares outstanding:

|  | Fiscal Year |
|  | 2024 |  |  | 2023 |
Weighted-average shares—basic |  |  | 12,579,588 |  |  |  | 12,442,781 |
Effect of dilutive equity securities |  |  | — |  |  |  | 35,434 |
Weighted-average shares—diluted |  |  | 12,579,588 |  |  |  | 12,478,215 |

Because the Company incurred a net loss for the fiscal year ended February 1, 2025, weighted-average basic shares and weighted-average diluted shares outstanding are equal for this period.

For the fiscal year ended February 3, 2024, 391,102 of weighted average shares were excluded from the computation of weighted average shares for diluted earnings per share, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

Note 11. Income Taxes

The (benefit) provision for income taxes consisted of the following:

| Fiscal Year |

Current: |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Domestic: |  |  |  |  |  |

Total deferred |  | (4,282 | ) |  |  |  | (4,021 | )
Total benefit for income taxes | $ | (3,642 | ) |  |  | $ | (3,478 | )

The sources of (loss) income before income taxes and equity in net income of equity method investment are from the United States, the Company's subsidiaries in the United Kingdom and the Company's French branch. The Company files U.S. federal income tax returns and income tax returns in various state and local jurisdictions.

Current income taxes are the amounts payable under the respective tax laws and regulations on each year's earnings. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities represent the tax effects of revenues, costs and expenses, which are recognized for tax purposes in different periods from those used for financial statement purposes.

The benefit for income taxes was $3,642 for the year ended February 1, 2025. This benefit was primarily driven by a tax benefit of $3,006 associated with the impairment of goodwill primarily due to the reversal of the non-cash deferred tax liability previously created by the amortization of the Vince goodwill indefinite-lived intangible asset recognized for tax, but not for book purposes, which previously could not be used as a source of income to support the realization of certain deferred tax assets related to the Company's net operating losses. The tax benefit was also driven by a tax benefit of $1,276 related to the reversal of a portion of the non-cash deferred tax liability related to the Company's equity method investment, which a portion can now be used as a source of income to support the realization of certain deferred tax assets related to the Company's net operating losses. The tax benefit was offset primarily by the current federal and state tax expense of $611.

The benefit for income taxes was $3,478 for the year ended February 3, 2024. This benefit was primarily driven by a tax benefit of $5,523 associated with the Authentic Transaction primarily due to the reversal of a portion of the non-cash deferred tax liability

previously created by the amortization of the Vince tradename indefinite-lived intangible asset recognized for tax, but not for book purposes, which previously could not be used as a source to support the realization of certain deferred tax assets related to the Company's net operating losses. This benefit was offset by a portion of the non-cash deferred tax liability related to the Company's equity method investment which cannot be used as a source of income to support the realization of certain deferred tax assets related to the Company's net operating losses which resulted in deferred tax expense o f $1,907.

A reconciliation of the federal statutory income tax rate to the effective tax rate is as follows:

As of February 1, 2025, the Company had a gross federal net operating loss of $186,821 (federal tax effected amount of $39,232) that may be used to reduce future federal taxable income. Federal net operating losses of 12,044 that were incurred in tax years that began before January 1, 2018 will expire through 2038. Net operating losses of $174,777 incurred in tax years beginning after January 1, 2018 have an indefinite carryforward period.

As of February 1, 2025, the Company had gross state net operating loss carryforward of $175,240 (tax effected amount of $5,021) that may be used to reduce future state taxable income. The net operating loss carryforwards for state income tax purposes expire at varying rates.

Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (“IRC”) subjects the future utilization of net operating losses to an annual limitation in the event of certain ownership changes, as defined. The Company determined that under Section 382, the P180 Acquisition resulted in an ownership change in January 2025. Due to the annual limitation of the Company’s net operating losses, gross federal net operating losses of $232,595 (federal tax effected amount of $48,844) incurred in tax years beginning before January 1, 2018 will expire unused prior to becoming available and therefore, the Company recorded an adjustment to write off these net operating losses. A corresponding adjustment was recorded to release the valuation allowance that was maintained on these net operating losses.

The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets was $53,394 and $125,913 as of February 1, 2025 and February 3, 2024, respectively. The valuation allowance decreased by $72,519 during fiscal 2024. The decrease was due primarily to the adjustment to the valuation allowance from the P180 Acquisition as described above, and the sale of Rebecca Taylor which resulted in the write-off of net operating losses for which a corresponding adjustment was recorded to release the valuation allowance. The Company maintains a full valuation allowance on all deferred tax assets except to the extent that the indefinite lived deferred tax assets (related to interest expense and net operating loss carryforwards) offset the future reversal of indefinite lived deferred tax liabilities. Adjustments to the valuation allowance are made when there is a change in management's assessment of the amount of deferred tax assets that are realizable.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest and penalties, is as follows:

| Fiscal Year |
(in thousands) | 2024 |  |  | 2023 |
Beginning balance | $ | 556 |  |  | $ | 556 |
Decreases for tax positions in prior years |  | (556 | ) |  |  | — |
Ending balance | $ | — |  |  | $ | 556 |

As of February 1, 2025 and February 3, 2024, the Company had unrecognized tax benefits in the amount of $0 and $556, respectively. The reduction in the unrecognized tax benefit resulted from the write-off of certain net operating losses under IRC section 382, whereby, the impact of the unrecognized tax benefit would no longer result in a change to the realizable net operating loss carryforward of the Company.

The Company includes accrued interest and penalties on underpayments of income taxes in its income tax provision. As of February 1, 2025 and February 3, 2024, the Company did no t have any interest and penalties accrued on its Consolidated Balance Sheets and no related provision or benefit was recognized in each of the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the years ended February 1, 2025 and February 3, 2024. Interest is computed on the difference between the tax position recognized net of any unrecognized tax benefits and the amount previously taken or expected to be taken in the Company's tax returns.

With limited exceptions, fiscal years January 29, 2022 through February 1, 2025 remain subject to examination. For years prior to fiscal year 2021, adjustments can be made by the taxing authorities only to the extent of the net operating losses carried forward.

Note 12. Leases

The Company determines if a contract contains a lease at inception. The Company has operating leases for real estate (primarily retail stores, storage, and office spaces) some of which have initial terms of 10 years, and in many instances can be extended for an additional term, while certain recent leases are subject to shorter terms as a result of the implementation of the strategy to pursue shorter lease terms when evaluating certain markets. The Company will not include renewal options in the underlying lease term unless the Company is reasonably certain to exercise the renewal option. Substantially all of the Company's leases require a fixed annual rent, and most require the payment of additional rent if store sales exceed a negotiated amount. These percentage rent expenses are considered as variable lease costs and are recognized in the consolidated financial statements when incurred. In addition, the

F-26

Company's real estate leases may also require additional payments for real estate taxes and other occupancy-related costs which it considers as non-lease components.

ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based upon the present value of the future lease payments over the lease term. As the Company's leases do not provide an implicit borrowing rate, the Company uses an estimated incremental borrowing rate based upon a combination of market-based factors, such as market quoted forward yield curves and company specific factors, such as the Company's credit rating, lease size and duration to calculate the present value. The Company does not have any finance leases. The Company's lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. The weighted-average remaining lease term and weighted-average discount rate for our operating leases are 7 years and 7.15% as of February 1, 2025 and 6.3 years and 7.17% as of February 3, 2024.

Total lease cost is included in SG&A expense in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) and is recorded net of immaterial sublease income. Some leases have a non-cancelable lease term of less than one year and therefore, the Company has elected to exclude these short-term leases from the ROU asset and lease liabilities. Short term lease costs were immaterial for the fiscal years ended February 1, 2025 and February 3, 2024. The Company's lease cost is comprised of the following:

|  | Fiscal Year |
(in thousands) |  | 2024 |  |  | 2023 |
Operating lease cost |  | $ | 22,372 |  |  | $ | 18,482 |
Variable operating lease cost |  |  | 270 |  |  |  | 390 |
Sublease income |  |  | (289 | ) |  |  | — |
Total lease cost |  | $ | 22,353 |  |  | $ | 18,872 |

The operating lease cost for fiscal 2023 included a benefit of $779 for the correction of an error recorded within SG&A expenses related to a lease modification that occurred during fiscal 2022 for a Vince retail store, leading to an overstatement of the ROU assets and an overstatement of the lease obligations in fiscal 2022.

Supplemental cash flow and non-cash information related to leases is as follows:

|  | Fiscal Year |
(in thousands) |  | 2024 |  |  | 2023 |
Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities: |  |  |  |  |  |

Right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for operating lease liabilities |  |  | 36,791 |  |  |  | 22,972 |

As of February 1, 2025, the future maturity of lease liabilities are as follows:

During fiscal 2024, the Company entered into a sublease with a third party for the 18th Floor of the Company’s corporate offices in New York, NY, for a period of three years with no option to renew. In accordance with ASC Topic 842, the Company treated the sublease as a separate lease, as the Company was not relieved of the primary obligation under the original lease. The Company continues to account for the corporate office lease as a lessee and in the same manner as prior to the commencement date of the sublease. The Company accounted for the sublease as a lessor of the lease. The sublease was classified as an operating lease, as it

F-27

did not meet the criteria of a sales-type or direct financing lease. As of February 1, 2025, future minimum tenant operating lease payments remaining under this sublease were approximately $2,500, with a remaining sublease term of 2.7 years.

The operating lease payments do not include any renewal options as such leases are not reasonably certain of being renewed as of February 1, 2025 and do not include $6,521 legally binding minimum lease payments for leases signed but not yet commenced.

Note 13. Segment and Geographical Financial Information

The Company has identified two reportable segments based on the information used by its chief operating decision maker (“CODM”). The CODM has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer. Management considered both similar and dissimilar economic characteristics, internal reporting and management structures, as well as products, customers, and supply chain logistics to identify the following reportable segments:

•
Vince Wholesale segment—consists of the Company's operations to distribute Vince brand products to major department stores and specialty stores in the United States and select international markets;
•
Vince Direct-to-consumer segment—consists of the Company's operations to distribute Vince brand products directly to the consumer through its Vince branded full-price specialty retail stores, outlet stores, e-commerce platform, and its subscription service Vince Unfold.

As a result of the completion of the wind down and sale (see Note 2 "Recent Transactions"), and the determination by the CODM that Parker would not be considered in the Company’s future operating plans, Rebecca Taylor and Parker is no longer an operating segment of the Company. The financial results of the historical Rebecca Taylor and Parker reportable segment are included as an other reconciling item in the table below.

The accounting policies of the Company's reportable segments are consistent with those described in Note 1 "Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies."

The Company’s CODM evaluates segment performance based on several factors, including Income before equity in net income of equity method investment. The CODM uses Income before equity in net income of equity method investment as the key performance measure of segment profitability because it excludes the impact of certain items that our CODM believes do not directly reflect our underlying operations, including the impact of income taxes and equity in net income of equity method investment. The CODM also considers budget-to-actual and period-over-period variances for this performance measure when making decisions about the allocation of operating and capital resources to each segment. Unallocated corporate expenses are comprised of SG&A expenses attributable to corporate and administrative activities (such as marketing, design, finance, information technology, legal and human resource departments), and other charges, including interest expense, that are not directly attributable to the Company's Vince Wholesale and Vince Direct-to-consumer reportable segments. Unallocated corporate assets are comprised of the carrying values of the Company's goodwill, equity method investment and other assets that will be utilized to generate revenue for the Company's Vince Wholesale and Vince Direct-to-consumer reportable segments. As the Company’s goodwill is not allocated to the Company’s reportable segments in the measure of segment assets regularly reported to and used by our CODM, the corresponding impairment charge associated with goodwill is not reflected in the operating results of the Company’s reportable segments.

Note 14. Related Party Transactions

Operating Agreement

On May 25, 2023, V Opco and ABG Vince entered into the Operating Agreement, which, among other things, provides for the management of the business and the affairs of ABG Vince, the allocation of profits and losses, the distribution of cash of ABG Vince among its members and the rights, obligations and interests of the members to each other and to V Opco. See Note 2 "Recent Transactions" for further information. During fiscal 2024 and 2023, the Company received $3,395 and $1,341, respectively, of cash distributions under the Operating Agreement.

License Agreement

On May 25, 2023, V Opco and ABG Vince entered into the License Agreement, whereby V Opco is required to pay ABG Vince a royalty on net sales of Licensed Products and committed to an annual guaranteed minimum royalty of $11,000. See Note 2 "Recent Transactions" for further information. During fiscal 2024 and 2023, the Company paid $10,811 and $6,945 under the License Agreement. As of February 1, 2025 and February 3, 2024, $3,513 and $361, respectively, of accrued royalty expense was included within Other accrued expenses on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

P180 Expense Reimbursement

In connection with the P180 Acquisition, P180 agreed to reimburse the Company for certain fees and expenses incurred in connection with such transactions, including the Company’s legal fees as well as the consent fee to BofA. As of February 1, 2025, the Company had recorded approximately $614 of outstanding reimbursements with P180, which are included in Trade receivables.

CaaStle Platform Services

On September 7, 2018, V Opco and CaaStle Inc. (“CaaStle”) entered into a platform services agreement, whereby CaaStle provided logistical services for the Company's Vince Unfold clothing rental service. The agreement was amended on November 1, 2024. P rior to the P180 Acquisition, CaaStle was an unrelated party to the Company. Due to CaaStle’s relationship with P180, as a result of the P180 Acquisition, CaaStle is considered a related party to the Company as of February 1, 2025. Subsequently, due to organizational changes at CaaStle and P180, CaaStle is no longer considered a related party to the Company.

During fiscal 2024, the Company recognized $1,106 of net sales, $38 of cost of products sold and $625 of SG&A expenses from the arrangement. During fiscal 2023, the Company recognized $2,810 of net sales, $1,299 of cost of products sold, and $1,288 of SG&A expenses from the arrangement. As of February 1, 2025 and February 3, 2024, $24 and $189 of outstanding amounts due from CaaStle were included in Trade receivables on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

On April 24, 2025, the Company terminated the Vince Unfold program and the platform services agreement in its entirety.

The Third Lien Credit Facility was reviewed and approved by the Special Committee of the Company's Board of Directors, consisting solely of directors not affiliated with Sun Capital, which committee was represented by independent legal advisors. SK Financial is an affiliate of Sun Capital, whose affiliates, prior to the P180 Acquisition, owned approximately 67% of the Company's common stock. Subsequent to the P180 Acquisition, SK Financial is no longer a related party.

Sun Capital Consulting Agreement

On November 27, 2013, the Company entered into an agreement with Sun Capital Management to (i) reimburse Sun Capital Management Corp. ("Sun Capital Management") or any of its affiliates providing consulting services under the agreement for out-of-pocket expenses incurred in providing consulting services to the Company and (ii) provide Sun Capital Management with customary indemnification for any such services.

The initial term of the agreement expired on November 27, 2023, the tenth anniversary of the Company's IPO, and the agreement currently is automatically extended on a year-to-year basis. Under the consulting agreement, the Company has no obligation to pay Sun Capital Management or any of its affiliates any consulting fees other than those which are approved by a majority of the Company's directors that are not affiliated with Sun Capital. To the extent such fees are approved in the future, the Company will be obligated to pay such fees in addition to reimbursing Sun Capital Management or any of its affiliates that provide the Company services under the consulting agreement for all reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred by such party in

F-31

connection with the provision of consulting services under the consulting agreement and any related matters. Reimbursement of such expenses shall not be conditioned upon the approval of a majority of the Company's directors that are not affiliated with Sun Capital Management and shall be payable in addition to any fees that such directors may approve.

Neither Sun Capital Management nor any of its affiliates are liable to the Company or the Company's affiliates, security holders or creditors for (1) any liabilities arising out of, related to, caused by, based upon or in connection with the performance of services under the consulting agreement, unless such liability is proven to have resulted directly and primarily from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such person or (2) pursuing any outside activities or opportunities that may conflict with the Company's best interests, which outside activities the Company consents to and approves under the consulting agreement, and which opportunities neither Sun Capital Management nor any of its affiliates will have any duty to inform the Company of. In no event will the aggregate of any liabilities of Sun Capital Management or any of its affiliates exceed the aggregate of any fees paid under the consulting agreement.

In addition, the Company is required to indemnify Sun Capital Management, its affiliates and any successor by operation of law against any and all liabilities, whether or not arising out of or related to such party's performance of services under the consulting agreement, except to the extent proven to result directly and primarily from such person's willful misconduct or gross negligence. The Company is also required to defend such parties in any lawsuits which may be brought against such parties and advance expenses in connection therewith. In the case of affiliates of Sun Capital Management that have rights to indemnification and advancement from affiliates of Sun Capital, the Company agrees to be the indemnitor of first resort, to be liable for the full amounts of payments of indemnification required by any organizational document of such entity or any agreement to which such entity is a party, and that the Company will not make any claims against any affiliates of Sun Capital Partners for contribution, subrogation, exoneration or reimbursement for which they are liable under any organizational documents or agreement. Sun Capital Management may, in its sole discretion, elect to terminate the consulting agreement at any time. The Company may elect to terminate the consulting agreement if SCSF Cardinal, Sun Cardinal, or any of their respective affiliates' aggregate ownership of the Company's equity securities falls below 30%.

During fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, the Company incurred expenses of $37 and $10, respectively, under the Sun Capital Consulting Agreement. Subsequent to the P180 Acquisition, Sun Capital is no longer a related party and the agreement is no longer operative per the terms thereof. See Note 2 "Recent Transactions" for additional information.

Indemnification Agreements

The Company has entered into indemnification agreements with each of its executive officers and directors. The indemnification agreements provide the executive officers and directors with contractual rights to indemnification, expense advancement and reimbursement, to the fullest extent permitted under the Delaware General Corporation Law.

Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation

The Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that for so long as affiliates of Sun Capital own 30% or more of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock, Sun Cardinal, a Sun Capital affiliate, has the right to designate a majority of the Company’s Board of Directors. For so long as Sun Cardinal has the right to designate a majority of the Company’s Board of Directors, the directors designated by Sun Cardinal are expected to constitute a majority of each committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (other than the Audit Committee), and the chairperson of each of the committees (other than the Audit Committee) is expected to be a director serving on the committee who is selected by affiliates of Sun Capital, provided that, at such time as the Company is not a “controlled company” under the NYSE corporate governance standards, the Company’s committee membership will comply with all applicable requirements of those standards and a majority of the Company’s Board of Directors will be “independent directors,” as defined under the rules of the NYSE, subject to any applicable phase in requirements.

Second and Third Amended and Restated Bylaws

On January 22, 2025, the Board approved an amendment and restatement of the Company’s bylaws (the “Second Amended and Restated Bylaws”) to provide P180, following the P180 Acquisition, with the right to designate (i) a majority of the directors of the Board, (ii) the Chairman of the Board, and (iii) the chairman of each committee of the Board, in each case for so long as P180 continues to beneficially own at least thirty percent (30%) of the Company’s outstanding common stock. Subsequently, on April 4, 2025, the Board approved an amendment and restatement of the Second Amended and Restated Bylaws to remove such rights granted to P180 under the Second Amended and Restated Bylaws.
