The Company
Nature of Business	Nature of Business RH, a Delaware corporation, together with its subsidiaries (collectively, “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”), is a leading retailer and luxury lifestyle brand operating primarily in the home furnishings market. Our curated and fully integrated assortments are presented consistently across our sales channels, including our retail locations, websites and Source Books. We offer merchandise assortments across a number of categories, including furniture, lighting, textiles, bathware, décor, outdoor and garden, and baby, child and teen furnishings. As of October 29, 2022, we operated a total of 67 RH Galleries and 39 RH Outlet stores in 31 states, the District of Columbia and Canada, as well as 14 Waterworks Showrooms throughout the United States and in the U.K., and had sourcing operations in Shanghai and Hong Kong. In September 2022, we opened our first RH Guesthouse in New York.
Macro-Economic Factors and COVID-19 Pandemic	Macro-Economic Factors and COVID-19 Pandemic There are a number of macro-economic factors and uncertainties affecting the overall business climate as well as our business, including increased inflation and rising interest rates. These factors may have a number of adverse effects on macro-economic conditions and markets in which we operate, with the potential for an economic recession and a sustained downturn in the housing market. Factors such as a slowdown in the housing market or negative trends in stock market prices could have a negative impact on demand for our products. We believe that these macro-economic factors have contributed to the slowdown in demand that we have experienced in our business over the last several fiscal quarters. The COVID-19 pandemic continues to cause challenges in certain aspects of our business operations primarily related to our supply chain, including delays in our receipt of products from vendors, which have affected our ability to convert demand into revenues at normal historic rates. While our performance during the pandemic demonstrates the desirability of our exclusive products, consumer spending have shifted away from spending on the home and home-related categories toward travel and leisure and other areas. Our decisions regarding the sources and uses of capital will continue to reflect and adapt to changes in market conditions and our business including further developments with respect to macro-economic factors and the pandemic.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards	New Accounting Standards or Updates Adopted Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update 2020-06—Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity (“ASU 2020-06”). ASU 2020-06 simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts in an entity’s own equity. Specifically, ASU 2020-06 removes the separation models for convertible debt with a cash conversion feature or convertible instruments with a beneficial conversion feature. As a result, after adopting ASU 2020-06’s guidance, we no longer separately present in equity an embedded conversion feature of such debt. Instead, we account for a convertible debt instrument wholly as debt unless (i) a convertible instrument contains features that require bifurcation as a derivative or (ii) a convertible debt instrument was issued at a substantial premium. Additionally, ASU 2020-06 removes certain conditions for equity classification related to contracts in an entity’s own equity (e.g., warrants) and amends certain guidance related to the computation of earnings per share for convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity.
Reference Rate Reform	Reference Rate Reform In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04—Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (“ASU 2020-04”). In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01—Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope, (“ASU 2021-01” and, together with ASU 2020-04, the “ASUs”). The ASUs provide optional expedients and exceptions, if certain criteria are met, for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by the expected market transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates, such as the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). These transactions include contract modifications, hedge accounting, and the sale or transfer of debt securities classified as held-to-maturity. The primary contracts for which we currently use LIBOR include our asset based credit facility and certain term loan debt arrangements. The guidance was effective upon issuance and allows entities to adopt the amendments on a prospective basis through December 31, 2022. All new arrangements are using alternative reference rates and we are evaluating the impact of adoption on our existing contracts, including with respect to our asset based credit facility and Term Loan B (as defined in Note 10—Credit Facilities), which we anticipate amending in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 to reference SOFR.
