NOTE 1—THE COMPANY

Nature of Business

RH, a Delaware corporation, together with its subsidiaries (collectively, “we,” “us,” or the “Company”), is a luxury home furnishings retailer that offers a growing number of categories, including furniture, lighting, textiles, bathware, décor, outdoor and garden, and child and teen furnishings. These products are sold through our stores, catalogs and websites.

As of August 1, 2020, we operated a total of 68 RH Galleries and 38 RH outlet stores in 31 states, the District of Columbia and Canada, as well as 15 Waterworks showrooms throughout the United States and in the U.K., and had sourcing operations in Shanghai and Hong Kong.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared from our records and, in our opinion, include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly state our financial position as of August 1, 2020, and the results of operations for the three and six months ended August 1, 2020 and August 3, 2019. Our current fiscal year, which consists of 52 weeks, ends on January 30, 2021 (“fiscal 2020”).

Certain information and disclosures normally included in the notes to annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted for purposes of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences could be material to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

We have assessed various accounting estimates and other matters, including those that require consideration of forecasted financial information, in context of the unknown future impacts of the novel coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”) using information that is reasonably available to us at this time. The accounting estimates and other matters we have assessed include, but were not limited to, sales return reserve, inventory reserve, allowance for doubtful accounts, goodwill, intangible and other long-lived assets. Our current assessment of these estimates are included in our condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended August 1, 2020 and August 3, 2019. As additional information becomes available to us, our future assessment of these estimates, including our expectations at the time regarding the duration, scope and severity of the pandemic, as well as other factors, could materially and adversely impact our condensed consolidated financial statements in future reporting periods.

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 1, 2020 (the “2019 Form 10-K”).

The results of operations for the three and six months ended August 1, 2020 and August 3, 2019 presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year. Our business, like the businesses of retailers generally, is subject to uncertainty surrounding the financial impact of the novel coronavirus disease as discussed in Recent Developments—COVID-19 below.

Recent Developments—COVID-19

The initial wave of the COVID-19 outbreak starting in March 2020 caused disruption to our business operations as we temporarily closed all of our retail locations on March 17, 2020. While our retail locations were substantially closed at the end of the first fiscal quarter on May 2, 2020, during the second fiscal quarter we have reopened substantially all of our retail locations. As of the end of the second fiscal quarter on August 1, 2020 we had reopened 66 out of 68 of our Galleries, all of our Outlets, and 8 out of 10 of our restaurants. In addition, our business has substantially recovered during the second fiscal quarter as a result of both the reopening of most of our retail locations and also due to strong consumer demand for our products.

Our global supply chain has not fully recovered from the impact of the COVID-19 dislocation. Despite the strong growth in consumer demand in our business during the second fiscal quarter, revenue growth has lagged the increase in customer orders. As manufacturing and inventory receipts catch up with this backlog, we expect this demand will convert into revenue in the next several quarters as our supply chain recalibrates to the new level of our business.

While we have continued to serve our customers and operate our business through the initial phase of the COVID-19 health crisis, and have now substantially reopened our retail locations in the U.S. and Canada, there can be no assurance that future events will not have an impact on our business, results of operations or financial condition since the extent and duration of the health crisis remains uncertain. Future adverse developments in connection with the COVID-19 crisis, including additional waves of COVID-19 outbreaks, evolving international, federal, state and local restrictions and safety regulations in response to COVID-19 risks, changes in consumer behavior and health concerns, the pace of economic activity in the wake of the COVID-19 crisis, or other similar issues could adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition in the future, or our financial results and business performance for the fiscal year ending January 30, 2021.

In our initial response to the COVID-19 health crisis we undertook immediate adjustments to our business operations including curtailing expenses and delaying investments. Our approach to the crisis evolved quickly as our business trends substantially improved during the second fiscal quarter. We will continue to make decisions regarding the sources and uses of capital in our business to reflect and adapt to changes in market conditions including any lasting effects of COVID-19. While we deferred some capital expenditures and other expenses in response to the initial circumstances of the COVID-19 health crisis, we are continuing both long term investments and shorter term initiatives necessary to support our business and the recent increase in consumer demand.
