THE LOVESAC COMPANY DETAILS STRATEGIC FRAMEWORK AND MULTI-YEAR FINANCIAL ALGORITHM AT INVESTOR DAY

STAMFORD, Conn., December 17, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Lovesac Company (Nasdaq: LOVE) (“Lovesac” or the “Company”), the home furnishing brand best known for its Sactionals, The World's Most Adaptable Couch, will host an Investor Day today, December 17, 2024, at 10:00 am ET. Interested parties may access the webcast of the event, related published materials and a replay of the event by accessing Lovesac’s IR website at https://investor.lovesac.com/.

In connection with the event, the Company has introduced a multi-year financial algorithm. The Company estimates a normalized year to achieve the following:

•Annual Net Sales Growth of +10% to +15%;
•Gross Margin Rate of 59% to 60%;
•Advertising & Marketing of ~12.5% of Net Sales;
•Annual Adjusted EBITDA Margin Rate Expansion of 50 basis points to 100 basis points; and
•Annual EPS Growth of at least 25%.

Specifically for Fiscal 2026, the Company provided the following preliminary expectations:

•Annual Net Sales Growth of +7% to +12%;
•Gross Margin Rate of ~59%;
•Advertising & Marketing of ~12.5% of Net Sales;
•Annual Adjusted EBITDA Margin Rate Expansion of 100 basis points to 150 basis points; and
•Annual EPS Growth of at least 100%.

The above financial targets assume annual industry outperformance of +10% to +15% and a tax rate of ~26.5%, and does not consider any potential impact from any new tariffs.

Non-GAAP Information:

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as a non-GAAP financial measure by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) that is a supplemental measure of financial performance not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. We define “Adjusted EBITDA” as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted for the impact of certain non-cash and other items that we do not consider in our evaluation of ongoing operating performance. These items include management fees, equity-based compensation expense, write-offs of property and equipment, deferred rent, financing expenses and certain other charges and gains that we do not believe reflect our underlying business performance. We have reconciled this non-GAAP financial measure with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure within the schedules attached hereto. Statements regarding our expectations as to fiscal 2025 Adjusted EBITDA do not include certain charges and costs. These items include equity-based compensation expense and certain other charges and gains that we do not believe reflect our underlying business performance. We are not able to provide a reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial guidance to the corresponding GAAP measures without unreasonable effort because of the uncertainty and variability of the nature and amount of these future charges and costs. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing of certain events that have not yet occurred and are out of the Company’s control.

We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures not only provide its management with comparable financial data for internal financial analysis but also provide meaningful supplemental information to investors. Specifically, these non-GAAP financial measures allow investors to better understand the performance of our business, facilitate a more meaningful comparison of our actual results on a period-over-period basis and provide for a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. We have provided this information as a means to evaluate the results of our ongoing operations alongside GAAP measures such as gross profit, operating income (loss) and net income (loss). Other companies in our industry may calculate these items differently than we do. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered as a substitute for the most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, such as net income (loss) or net income (loss) per share as a measure of financial performance, cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and investors should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP.
