Lands’ End, Inc. is a leading digital retailer of solution-based apparel, swimwear, outerwear, accessories, footwear, home products and uniforms. We offer products online at www.landsend.com, through third-party distribution channels, our own Company Operated stores and third-party license agreements. We also offer products to businesses and schools, for their employees and students, through the Outfitters distribution channel. Lands’ End is a classic American lifestyle brand that creates solutions for life’s every journey.

Lands’ End was founded in 1963 by Gary Comer and his partners to sell sailboat hardware and equipment by catalog. While our product focus has shifted significantly over the years, we have continued to adhere to our founder’s motto as one of our guiding principles: “Take care of the customer, take care of the employee and the rest will take care of itself.”

Segment Reporting

The Company identifies our operating segments according to how business activities are managed and evaluated. Following internal organizational changes and realignment of distribution channel responsibilities in Fourth Quarter 2024, the Company’s operating segments consisted of: U.S. eCommerce, Europe eCommerce, Outfitters, Third Party, Licensing and Retail. Beginning Fourth Quarter 2024, the Wholesale business is included in Licensing and prior periods were recast to reflect the change in operating segments for comparability purposes. The Company has determined that the U.S. eCommerce, Outfitters and Third Party operating segments share similar economic and other qualitative characteristics, and therefore, the results of these operating segments are aggregated into one external reportable segment, the U.S. Digital segment. The Europe eCommerce, Licensing and Retail operating segments are not quantitatively significant to be separately reported. See Note 13, Segment Reporting.

Distribution Channels

Lands’ End identifies six separate distribution channels for revenue reporting purposes.

•U.S. eCommerce offers products through the Company’s eCommerce website.

•Europe eCommerce offers products primarily to consumers located in Europe and through eCommerce international websites and third-party affiliates.

•Outfitters sells uniform and logo apparel to businesses and their employees, as well as to student households through school relationships, located primarily in the U.S.

•Third Party sells products direct to consumers through third-party marketplace websites.

•Licensing earns royalties on the use of Lands’ End trademark and any fulfillment fees for fulfillment services provided by the Company.

•Retail sells products through Company Operated stores, located in the U.S.

Strategy

We continue to leverage our iconic American brand, which was founded on the principles of delivering great quality, uncompromising service and exceptional value to our customers. We strive to be the innovative, solutions brand for life’s every journey. We operate both in the B2C channels, with our customer-centric, digitally enabled retail business in the U.S. and internationally; and in the B2B market, with our industry leading uniform solutions for schools and businesses. Additionally, we are executing a licensing strategy, designed to grow the reach of our brand beyond the categories and channels that are our historical and core competencies. In exchange for royalty payments on net sales, licensees are granted the right to manufacture, market and sell product to consumers utilizing the Company’s channels and third-party channels. In line with this asset-light strategy, we plan to continue to explore additional licensing relationships for new and existing product categories, channels and geographies.

In Fiscal 2025, we will continue to focus on building our brand, growing our reach and customer base and increasing our margins, through our commitment to our core principles and our approach.

Customer First. At Lands’ End, we are customer obsessed and strive to bring our customer what they want, when they want it and where they want it, regardless of the product category or means they use to shop our brand. We are focused on further penetrating our existing customer base and seek to build their loyalty through cross-category shopping, as well as introducing new customers to our brand. Additionally, we are focused on creating more personal

4

and compelling journeys geared toward our targeted key customer cohorts to drive higher quality sales with more productive inventories. We strive to operate with lower inventory levels and speed to market, to provide flexibility to refresh our assortment with new styles and fabrics on an ongoing basis.

Solutions Orientation. We plan to continue our solutions-focused merchandising strategy which drove higher quality sales resulting in enhanced gross margins in Fiscal 2024 across key items, categories and franchises including swimwear, outerwear, bottoms, and school and business uniforms.

Innovation. Lands’ End has long been an innovator, epitomized as being an early adopter of eCommerce for apparel retail, through our embrace of data analytics to better organize our business and service our customers. We strive to be innovative throughout our business to drive stronger results. We are focused on advancing our technologies, challenging ourselves to think and operate differently, embracing change, testing and learning, and applying our learning to best serve evolving customer needs. We maintain a leading digital presence in both our B2C and B2B digital markets. With over 90% of our business being done online, we seek to leverage data and analytics to drive personalization and higher quality sales with improved gross margins and increased gross profit. Digital operations is a core competency and our conversion rate is consistently greater than apparel industry norms.

Stakeholder Responsibility. Lands’ End is committed to serving all of our stakeholders – our customers, our shareholders, our hard working and dedicated employees and the supportive communities in which we operate – with a commitment to a high level of integrity, trust and respect as we build and maintain those relationships. Our goal is to drive deep and meaningful engagement with all stakeholders to achieve our collective goals.

History

We were founded in 1963, incorporated in Delaware in 1986, and our common stock was listed on the New York Stock Exchange from 1986 to 2002. On June 17, 2002, we became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sears Roebuck and Co., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sears Holdings Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries (“Sears Holdings”). On April 4, 2014, Sears Holdings distributed 100 percent of the outstanding common stock of Lands’ End to its stockholders and our common stock was listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market.

Competition

We operate primarily in the apparel industry which is highly competitive. We compete with a diverse group of direct-to-consumer companies and retailers, including national department store chains, women’s and men’s specialty apparel chains, outdoor specialty stores, apparel catalog businesses, sportswear marketers and online apparel businesses that sell similar lines of merchandise. We find our competitive edge by providing solutions for our customers’ needs through merchandise value (quality and price), product attributes and innovation, our established customer file and award-winning customer service.

Seasonality

We experience seasonal fluctuations in our net revenue and operating results and historically have realized a significant portion of our yearly net revenue and earnings during our fourth fiscal quarter. We generated approximately 34.0% of our yearly net revenue in the fourth quarters of Fiscal 2024, Fiscal 2023 and Fiscal 2022. Lower than expected fourth quarter net revenue could have an adverse impact on our annual operating results. See also Item 1A, Risk Factors, in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Working capital requirements typically increase during the second and third quarters of the fiscal year as inventory builds to support peak selling periods and, accordingly, working capital requirements typically decrease during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year as inventory is sold. Cash provided by operating activities is typically higher in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year due to reduced working capital requirements during that period.

Intellectual Property

Lands’ End owns or has rights to use certain word and design trademarks, service marks, and trade names that are registered or exist under common law in the United States and other jurisdictions. The Lands’ End® trade name and trademark are used both in the United States and internationally and are material to our business. Our trademarks are also integral to the execution of our licensing strategy. Trademarks that we commonly use to identify and distinguish our products and services are Lands’ End Lighthouse®, Squall®, Tugless Tank®, Drifter™, Outrigger®, Marinac®, Wanderweight®, and Beach Living®, all of which are owned by us, as well as the licensed marks Supima®, No-Gape®, and others. Other recognized trademarks owned by Lands’ End include Anyweather™, Waveshaper™, Starfish™, Little Black Suit™, Iron Knees®, Hyde Park®, Year’Rounder®, ClassMate®, Willis & Geiger® and ThermaCheck®. Lands’ End’s rights to some of these trademarks are limited to select markets. Lands’ End has a patent pending for targeted control swimwear and a provisional patent for swimwear with a removable wire feature.

Product Design and Merchandising

We seek to develop new, innovative products that provide solutions for our customers’ needs by utilizing modern fabrics and quality construction to create timeless, affordable styles with excellent fit. We also seek to present our products in an engaging and inspiring way. We devote significant time and resources to quality assurance, fit testing and product compliance.

Our product teams seek to determine optimal inventory levels that align with merchandising and marketing plans and initiatives. The product team also supports efforts to optimize product margin through active management of in-season promotions and post-season clearance activities. In addition, the product teams partner with our global sourcing team through long range planning efforts designed to better manage global supply chain costs.

Consistent with our merchandising strategy, we make inventory investments intended to support the growth of key products. In addition, we strive to improve assortment efficiency to increase seasonal sell through. We continue to leverage technology solutions to assist us in these strategic initiatives.

Sourcing and Vendors

Our products are produced globally by independent manufacturers who are selected, monitored and coordinated by our sourcing team and external sourcing experts. In Fiscal 2024, the top five countries where our vendors are located accounted for approximately 65% of our merchandise purchases in dollars. Our products are manufactured in approximately 20 countries and the majority are imported from Asia.

In Fiscal 2024, our top 10 vendors accounted for approximately 63% of our merchandise purchases in dollars and we worked with approximately 100 vendors that manufactured substantially all of our products. We generally do not enter into long-term merchandise supply contracts. We continue to take advantage of opportunities to more efficiently source our products worldwide, consistent with our high standards of quality and value. Significant areas of non-product spend include logistics, information systems, marketing, packaging and catalog paper and print. We use third-party shipping companies to transport the product to our facilities. We face risks associated with relying on imported products, including manufacturing disruptions, port congestion, transportation delays, and heightened security measures, which have impacted—and could continue to impact—timely deliveries to our points of distribution.

It is important to us that our partners share the same core values as we do. Therefore, we require that all vendors comply with applicable legal requirements, agree to our global compliance requirements and meet our product quality standards. Our vendors are required to provide us with full access to their facilities and to relevant records relating to their employment practices, such as, but not limited to, child labor, wages and benefits, forced labor, discrimination, freedom of association, unlawful inducements, safe and healthy working conditions and other business practices so

6

that we may monitor their compliance with ethical and legal requirements relating to the conduct of their business. See also Item 1A, Risk Factors, in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Corporate Citizenship

Lands’ End is working towards improving its sustainable footprint through key practices like waste reduction, purchasing recycled consumables and corporate partnerships. Lands’ End hopes to inspire customers and other corporations to increase sustainability awareness and initiatives.

We have a focus on raising awareness and educating our employees on reducing our internal use of consumables and natural resources. In addition, we have a broad range of recycling and waste management initiatives at our corporate office and distribution centers. We also focus on efficient water and energy management programs.

Marketing

We believe that our most important asset is our brand. Lands’ End is well-recognized and has a deeply rooted tradition of excellent quality, value and service. Lands’ End is an iconic American brand with a large and loyal customer base.

We invest significantly in brand development through our focus on providing excellent customer service, emphasis on digital and innovative product development. We believe that this commitment to our brand has helped to generate our large and loyal customer base for over sixty years.

We attempt to build on our brand recognition through multi-channel marketing campaigns including through our eCommerce website, www.landsend.com, catalog distribution, digital marketing and social media. Creative designs for these marketing platforms are developed in-house by our creative team with supplemental work by external agencies on a project basis.

Customer Service

We are committed to building on Lands’ End’s legacy of strong customer service. We believe we have a strong track record of improving the customer service experience through innovation. Lands’ End is focused on using our extensive customer data to make the shopping experience as convenient and personalized as possible. Customer service agents are available on the phone, via chat, email, text and social media, and we maintain a digital self-service platform. These all have contributed to our award-winning customer service, which we believe is one of our core strengths and a key point of differentiation from our competitors.

We have received many accolades over the years and Lands’ End was recognized in the Newsweek list of America’s Best Customer Service in 2024, 2023, 2022 and 2021, for best customer service in the Online Retailers: Clothing in the Apparel category.

Distribution

We own and operate three distribution centers in Wisconsin. Our Dodgeville facility is approximately 1.3 million square feet, our Reedsburg facility is approximately 550,000 square feet and our Stevens Point facility is approximately 150,000 square feet. Our customer orders are shipped via third-party carriers.

We own and operate a distribution center in the United Kingdom based in Oakham, a community north of London. Our Oakham facility is approximately 185,000 square feet.

Information Technology

Lands’ End employs a variety of third-party and internally-developed systems to enhance our customer experience and support efficient, cost-effective operations. In support of our business strategies, we implement new solutions and upgrade existing ones to offer, sell and fulfill our products through Lands’ End distribution channels. See also Item 1A, Risk Factors, in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Human Capital Management

Philosophy and Approach

Since our founding in 1963, Lands’ End has recognized that our people are a critical asset. People, the individuals we employ, the customers we serve, and their families, are the heart of our company. We are committed to creating an inspiring culture that is welcoming for all who work and shop with us. Our founder, Gary Comer set the foundation with this quote: “The really important thing that makes Lands’ End what it has become is people. You, me, everyone around us. It is what we do as people that makes this a great place to come to work.”

We employ approximately 4,400 employees: approximately 4,100 employees in the United States and approximately 300 employees outside the United States. The U.S. workforce consists of approximately 48% part-time employees, 33% full-time hourly employees and 18% full-time salaried employees. With the seasonal nature of the fourth quarter holiday shopping season in the retail industry, approximately 1,500 additional, flexible, part-time employees are hired in the U.S. to support our customer service and distribution centers.

Recruitment and Retention

Lands’ End leverages a multifaceted recruitment approach to source and hire top talent aligned with our corporate priorities. We maintain a strong digital presence to represent our brand and proactively target talent, in addition to a meaningful employee referral bonus program. Annually, we have performance reviews for all employees and talent reviews, focused on director level and above positions, to evaluate and align on high potential talent with development actions that prepare employees for internal promotion and career growth opportunities, including succession planning for key leadership positions.

Our efforts to retain talent and maintain strong employee engagement have been very effective, as evidenced by approximately 47% of our full-time U.S. employee base having a tenure of 10 years or more.

Turnover within our workforce is closely monitored to alert management of potential issues aside from our normal and desired turnover. Our three-year average U.S. salaried turnover rate is approximately 10%, and the turnover rate for our U.S. hourly full-time staff is approximately 7%. We maintain a strong focus on employee retention by providing meaningful work aligned with business goals, strong and supportive leadership, and opportunities for growth and development.

Employee Engagement

As we strive to be a great place to work, we continue to focus on key initiatives to educate and support our employees’ personal and professional development. We continually benchmark and evolve our benefits to provide offerings that are competitive in the industry and look to provide support to our employees in each aspect of the employee journey.

We maintain Business Resource Groups (“BRGs”) to provide support for our employees. The BRGs are open to all employees, are employee-led and consist of individuals with common interests, backgrounds or demographic factors. It is our belief that encouraging and supporting BRGs contributes to making Lands’ End collaborative, welcoming, and successful.

Compensation and Benefits

We are committed to fostering an environment where contributions are recognized, valued, and rewarded. Our Total Rewards Philosophy is rooted in the fundamental principle that our employees are the driving force behind our success, and we are committed to offering a competitive rewards program that includes compensation, benefits, and opportunities. We align our total rewards programs, core values, and strategic business objectives to attract, retain, and engage top talent, while fostering a culture of collaboration, growth, and excellence.

8

We believe in upholding pay equity and fairness and are committed to providing equal pay for equal work, ensuring that compensation decisions are based on objective criteria such as skills, experience, and performance.

In addition to paying competitive salaries and wages, Lands’ End has various compensation awards and programs in place for all employees based on their position, such as annual incentive plans, long-term (cash and/or equity) incentive awards, sales incentive plans, peak incentives, and discretionary bonuses based on Company performance.

We are committed to offering a variety of benefits that support the well-being and diverse needs of our employees and their families.

Training and Development

Lands’ End partners with employees to discover and develop their talents and abilities through various programs. Targeted development opportunities are available throughout the employee lifecycle, including internships, mentorship programs, workshops, self-paced learning and leader coaching. Senior management regularly reviews organizational talent to identify employees who possess the potential for advancement and to identify, recommend and address developmental needs.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider the following risks and other information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K in evaluating our company and our common stock. Any of the following risks could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition.

RISKS RELATED TO MACROECONOMIC CONDITIONS

The impact of economic conditions on consumer discretionary spending and customers has in the past and could, in the future, adversely affect our financial performance.

Apparel purchases are discretionary expenditures that historically have been influenced by domestic and global economic conditions. Higher prices for consumer goods may result in less discretionary spending for consumers. Changes in consumer spending have resulted and may continue to result in reduced demand for our products, increased inventories, lower revenues, higher discounts, pricing pressures and lower gross margins.

Global and domestic conditions that have an effect on consumer discretionary spending include but may not be limited to: unemployment, general and industry-specific inflation, consumer confidence, consumer purchasing and saving habits, credit conditions, stock market performance, home values, population growth, household incomes and tax policies. Material changes to governmental policies related to domestic and international fiscal concerns, and/or changes in central bank policies with respect to monetary policy also could affect consumer discretionary spending. Any of these additional factors affecting consumer discretionary spending may further influence our customers’ purchasing preferences, potentially having a further material impact on our financial performance.

Global economic conditions have had and could, in the future, adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.

Global economic conditions have impacted, and will likely continue to impact, businesses around the world. Macroeconomic changes in the U.S. and the global economy such as interest rates, tariffs, material costs and energy prices have created and may continue to create a challenging economic environment. The following factors attributable to uncertain economic and financial market conditions could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition:

•Inflationary pressures may continue to cause increases in costs of core consumer products, such as gasoline, food and energy, which in turn are likely to reduce household spending on the consumer discretionary products we offer;

•Volatility in the availability and prices for commodities and raw materials that we use in our products and in our supply chain (such as cotton);

•Our interest expense could increase if prevailing interest rates increase, because our debt bears interest at variable rates;

•Our International distribution channel conducts business in various currencies, which creates exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency rates relative to the U.S. Dollar.

In the current uncertain economic environment, we cannot predict whether or when such circumstances may improve or worsen, or what impact, if any, such circumstances could have on our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial position.

Our business, results of operations and information technology systems could be negatively impacted by natural disasters, extreme weather conditions, public health emergencies, including pandemics, or political crises or other catastrophic events.

Our vendors and operations are located throughout the world including locations subject to natural disasters or extreme weather conditions, public health emergencies, including pandemics, or terrorist attacks, political or military conflicts as well as other potential catastrophic events. The occurrence of any of these events could disrupt our

12

operations and/or technology and therefore negatively impact sales of our products and may also heighten other risks described in this section, including but not limited to those related to consumer behavior and expectations, competition, brand reputation, implementation of strategic initiatives, cybersecurity threats, payment-related risks, technology systems disruption, global supply chain disruptions, labor availability and cost, litigation, operational risk as a result of remote work arrangements and regulatory requirements.

Climate change, unseasonal or severe weather conditions or significant weather events caused by climate change may adversely affect our merchandise sales.

Our business is adversely affected by unseasonal weather conditions and may be affected by significant weather events due to climate change. Sales of our spring and summer products, which traditionally consist of lighter clothing and swimwear, are adversely affected by cool or wet weather. Similarly, sales of our fall and winter products, which are traditionally weighted toward outerwear, are adversely affected by mild, dry or warm weather. In addition, severe weather events typically result in reduced traffic at Company Operated store locations which could lead to reduced sales of our merchandise. Severe weather events may impact our ability to deliver orders to customers in a timely manner, supply our Company Operated stores and adequately staff our distribution centers and Company Operated stores, which could have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

RISKS RELATED TO MICROECONOMIC CONDITIONS

Our business is seasonal in nature and any decrease in our sales or margins, especially during the fourth quarter of our fiscal year, could have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

Our business is seasonal, with the highest levels of sales typically occurring during the fourth quarter of our fiscal year. Our fourth quarter results in the future may fluctuate based upon factors such as the timing of holiday season dates, inventory positions, global supply chain challenges, promotions, level of markdowns, competitive factors, weather and general economic conditions. Any decrease in sales or margins, for example, as a result of increased promotional activity, increased costs, economic conditions, poor weather or other factors, could have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations. In addition, seasonal fluctuations also affect our inventory levels since we usually order merchandise in advance of peak selling periods. To manage customer demand, we need to maintain an appropriate, but large amount of inventory, especially increasing it before the fourth quarter peak selling periods. If we are not successful in selling inventory during these periods, we may have to sell the inventory after the peak selling period at significantly reduced prices, which could adversely affect our business and results of operations. Furthermore, with the seasonal nature of our business, over 1,500 flexible part-time employees join us each year to support our fourth quarter holiday shopping season. An inability to attract qualified flexible part-time personnel could interrupt our sales during such peak seasons.

Fluctuations and anticipated increases in the cost and availability of catalog paper, printing services, distribution, and postage have had and could continue to have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

Catalog mailings are an important aspect of our marketing efforts. Costs relating to postage, paper, and printing have increased and may continue to increase the cost of our catalog marketing and could reduce our profitability to the extent that we are unable to offset such increases by raising retail prices, or by implementing more efficient printing, mailing, delivery, and order fulfillment systems, or by using alternative direct-mail formats.

Paper for catalogs and promotional mailings is an essential resource in the success of our business. The continuous changes to the global paper market have resulted in plant closures and equipment conversion and lower available volume of specialty paper grades. The market price for paper has fluctuated significantly and may continue to fluctuate in the future. In addition, future pricing and supply availability of catalog paper may be impacted in the United States and Europe. The multi-year price of paper may be subject to fluctuation under our contracts for the supply of paper and we are not guaranteed access to, or reasonable prices for, the amounts required for the operation of our business over the long term.

13

We also depend upon external vendors to print and mail our catalogs. Partially due to the consolidation of printing companies, there are a limited number of printers that can handle such needs which subjects us to risks if any printer fails to perform as required. The cost to print catalogs may also fluctuate based on several factors beyond our control, including commodity prices for ink and solvents, changes in supply and demand, labor costs, and energy.

We currently use national mail carriers for distribution of substantially all our catalogs and a fluctuating quantity of our outbound customer deliveries. Therefore, we are vulnerable to postal rate increases, changes in discounts for bulk mailings and sorting by zip code and carrier routes which we currently leverage for cost savings.

Our approach to merchandise promotions and markdowns to encourage consumer purchases could adversely affect our gross margins and results of operations.

The apparel industry is dominated by large brands and national/mass retailers, where price competition, promotion, and branded product assortment drive differentiation between competitors. In order to be competitive, we must offer customers compelling products at attractive prices. In recent periods, the use of promotions and markdowns, as appropriate, is a strategy we have employed to offer attractive prices. Heavy reliance on promotions and markdowns to encourage customers to purchase our merchandise could have a negative impact on our gross margins and results of operations.

We may need additional financing in the future for our general corporate purposes or growth strategies and such financing may not be available on favorable terms, or at all, and may be dilutive to existing stockholders.

We may need to seek additional financing for our general corporate purposes or growth strategies. We may be unable to obtain any desired additional financing on terms favorable to us, or at all, depending on macroeconomic or other market conditions which are outside of our control. The ability to raise additional financing depends on numerous factors, including general economic and market conditions, the health of financial institutions, our credit ratings and lenders’ assessments of our prospects and the prospects of the retail industry in general, which are impacted by current macroeconomic conditions. The lenders, under our existing or any future credit facilities, may not be able to meet their commitments if they experience shortages of capital and liquidity. With negative changes in market conditions, we may be subject to limitations on our operations due to restrictive covenants in current Debt Facilities. If adequate funds required through debt issuance are not available on acceptable terms, we may be unable to fund our capital needs required to successfully develop or enhance our products, or respond to competitive pressures, any of which could negatively affect our business. If we are not able to fulfill our liquidity needs through operating cash flows and/or borrowings under credit facilities or otherwise in the capital markets, our business and financial condition would be adversely affected.

Our total debt and the underlying debt agreements, which contain terms and conditions which impose restrictions on us, may affect our ability to operate our business, placing us at a competitive disadvantage in our industry.

Our debt and debt service requirements could adversely affect our ability to operate our business and may limit our ability to take advantage of potential business opportunities. Our level of debt presents the following risks, among others:

•we could be required to use a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to pay principal (including amortization) and interest on our debt, thereby reducing the availability of our cash flow to fund working capital, capital expenditures, strategic acquisitions and other general corporate requirements;

•our net debt leverage ratio could limit our ability to raise additional financing on satisfactory terms, which increases our vulnerability to an economic downturn or a change in market conditions, limits our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to changes in our business or industry, and decreases our ability to fund working capital, capital expenditures, strategic acquisitions and other general corporate requirements, placing us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors that are less leveraged;

14

•the agreements governing our debt contain certain financial covenants, including a quarterly maximum total leverage ratio test, and a monthly minimum liquidity test (the “financial covenants”) and other covenants which limit our ability to pay dividends or make other restricted payments and investments; and

•the failure to comply with the operating and financial covenants could result in an event of default which, if not cured or waived, could result in the acceleration of the applicable debt or may result in the acceleration of any other debt to which a cross-acceleration or cross-default provision applies, and in the event our creditors accelerate the repayment of our borrowings, we and our subsidiaries may not have sufficient assets to repay that debt and the lenders could proceed against the collateral granted to them to secure such indebtedness. Our ability to meet these covenants can be affected by events beyond our control, and we cannot assure that we will meet them.

We have incurred and could continue to incur non-cash charges due to impairment of intangible assets and long-lived assets.

As of January 31, 2025, our intangible asset consists of our trade name, which is subject to testing for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. Any event that impacts our reputation could result in impairment charges for our trade name. Long-lived assets, primarily property and equipment, are also subject to testing for impairment if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. A significant amount of judgment is involved in our impairment assessment. If actual results fall short of our estimates and assumptions used in estimating revenue growth, future cash flows and asset fair values, we could incur further impairment charges for intangible assets or long-lived assets, which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations.

RISKS RELATED TO BRAND AND BRAND EXECUTION

If customer preference for our branded merchandise and services change or we cannot compete effectively in the apparel industry, our business and results of operations may be adversely affected.

Our products and services must satisfy the desires of customers, whose preferences change over time. Sales of branded merchandise account for substantially all our total revenues and the Lands’ End brand is a critical differentiating factor for our business. Our inability to develop products that resonate with our existing customers and attract new customers, our inability to maintain our strict quality standards or to develop, produce and deliver innovative products in a timely manner, or any unfavorable publicity with respect to the foregoing or otherwise could negatively impact the image of our brand with our customers and could result in diminished appeal of our brand. As customer preferences change, our failure to anticipate, identify and react in a timely manner to emerging trends and appropriately provide attractive high-quality products that maintain or enhance the appeal of our brand through our websites, catalogs, licensed products and Company Operated stores could have an adverse effect on our sales, operating margins and results of operations.

The apparel industry is highly competitive. We compete with a diverse group of direct-to-consumer companies and retailers, including national department store chains, women’s and men’s specialty apparel chains, apparel catalog businesses, sportswear marketers and online apparel businesses that sell similar lines of merchandise. Brand image, marketing, design, price, service, quality, image presentation, fulfillment and customer service are all competitive factors. Our competitors may be able to adopt more aggressive pricing policies, adapt to changes in customer preferences or requirements more quickly, devote greater resources to the design, sourcing, distribution, marketing and sale of their products, or generate greater national brand recognition than we can. An inability to overcome these potential competitive disadvantages or effectively market our products relative to our competitors could have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

15

The success of our business depends on our overall marketing strategies for digital marketing and direct mail catalogs and customers’ use of our digital platform, including our eCommerce websites.

The success of our business depends on customers’ use of our eCommerce websites and their response to our digital marketing and direct mail catalogs. The level of customer traffic and volume of customer purchases on our eCommerce website is substantially dependent on the ability to provide attractive and accessible websites, maintain a robust customer list, provide a high-quality customer experience and reliable delivery of our merchandise. If we are unable to maintain and increase customer traffic to our eCommerce website and the volume of goods they purchase, including, as a result of changes to the level and types of marketing or amount of spend allocated to each type of marketing, or through the failure to otherwise successfully promote and maintain websites and their associated services, our revenue and results of operations could be adversely affected. In addition, any future privacy rules or other regulations could adversely impact our business to the extent we need to limit or change our digital marketing efforts.

We have been increasing our investment in digital marketing and social media and optimizing our catalog productivity. This shift in marketing strategy could have a negative impact if customers that previously relied on the direct mail catalog do not respond as favorably through the digital marketing channel.

If we are unable to protect or preserve the image of our brands, our reputation and our intellectual property rights, our business may be adversely affected.

We regard our copyrights, service marks, trademarks, trade dress, trade secrets and similar intellectual property as critical to our success. As such, we rely on trademark and copyright law, trade secret protection and confidentiality agreements with our associates, consultants, vendors and others to protect our proprietary rights. Nevertheless, the steps we take to protect our proprietary rights may be inadequate and we may have trouble in effectively limiting unauthorized use of our trademarks and other intellectual property worldwide. Unauthorized use of our trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets or other proprietary rights may cause significant damage to our brands and our ability to effectively represent ourselves to agents, suppliers, vendors, licensees and/or customers.

Additionally, our efforts to pursue licensing and wholesale relationships with third parties increases risk of brand damage. If third parties do not adhere to our standards or if we fail to maintain the image of our brands due to merchandise and service quality issues, adverse publicity, governmental investigations or litigation, or other reasons, our brands and reputation could be damaged, and our business may be adversely affected.

Third parties may sue us for alleged infringement of their proprietary rights. The party claiming infringement might have greater resources than we do to pursue its claims, and we could be forced to incur substantial costs and devote significant management resources to defend against such litigation. If the party claiming infringement were to prevail, we could be forced to discontinue the use of the related trademark or design, pay significant damages, or enter into expensive royalty or other arrangements with the prevailing party, assuming these royalty or other arrangements are economically feasible, which they may not be.

We rely on vendors to provide us with services in connection with certain aspects of our business, and any failure by these vendors to perform their obligations could have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

We have entered into agreements with vendors for logistics services, information technology systems (including website hosting), credit card processing, onshore and offshore software development and support, catalog production, distribution and packaging, customer returns and employee benefits. Services provided by any of our vendors could be interrupted as a result of many factors, such as acts of nature or contract disputes. Any failure by a vendor to provide us with contracted-for services on a timely basis or within service level expectations and performance standards could result in a disruption of our business and have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

16

Our Company Operated stores may not be successful, and as a result our business and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Our Company Operated stores are dependent on our ability to operate all locations effectively and attract customers with a compelling assortment. Our Company Operated store operations include managing the store and recruiting and hiring store management and associates. In addition, we are required to implement retail-specific marketing plans, and enhance inventory management skills specific to retail, such as those related to allocation and replenishment of product. If customers are not receptive of our store locations and concept, customer traffic, projected store sales and profitability may suffer.

RISKS RELATED TO SUPPLY CHAIN AND GLOBAL OPERATIONS

If we fail to timely and effectively obtain shipments of products from our vendors and deliver merchandise to our customers, our business and operating results could be adversely affected.

We do not own or operate any manufacturing facilities and therefore depend upon independent merchandise suppliers and vendors for the manufacture of our merchandise. We cannot control all of the various factors that might affect timely and effective procurement of supplies of product from our vendors, including labor issues and other disruptions. From time to time, some of our factories that produce our product have experienced temporary suspension of operations due to labor issues and other disruptions.

The products that we purchase are shipped to our distribution centers in Wisconsin and the United Kingdom. Our reliance on a limited number of distribution centers makes us more vulnerable to unforeseen events that could delay or impair our ability to fulfill customer orders and/or ship merchandise to our Company Operated stores. Our ability to mitigate the adverse impacts of these events depends in part upon the effectiveness of our disaster preparedness and response planning, as well as business continuity planning which may not be adequate or perform as intended.

Our utilization of imports also makes us vulnerable to risks associated with products manufactured abroad, including, among other things, transportation and other delays in ocean shipments, unexpected or significant port congestion, lack of freight availability, increased cost to secure freight availability, freight cost increases, risks of damage, destruction or confiscation of products while in transit to a distribution center, organized labor strikes and work stoppages, heightened security screening and inspection processes or other port-of-entry limitations or restrictions in the United States and the United Kingdom.

We rely upon third-party land-based and air freight carriers for merchandise shipments from our distribution centers to customers. Accordingly, we are subject to the risks, including labor disputes, union organizing activity, trucking shortages, inclement weather and increased logistics costs, associated with such carriers’ ability to provide delivery services to meet outbound shipping needs. The changing mix of our outbound freight carriers may result in higher costs and customer delays. In addition, if the cost of fuel rises or surcharges increase, the cost to deliver merchandise from distribution centers to customers may rise, and, although some of these costs are paid by our customers, such costs could have an adverse impact on our profitability. Any increase in order fulfillment, shipping costs and surcharges may have an adverse effect on our profitability and future financial performance.

Fluctuations and increases in the cost, availability, and quality of raw materials as well as fluctuations in other production and distribution related costs could adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Our products are manufactured using several key raw materials, including wool and cotton, which are subject to fluctuations in price and availability and many of which are produced in emerging markets in Asia and South America. The prices of these raw materials may also fluctuate based on a number of other factors beyond our control, including commodity prices such as prices for oil, changes in supply and demand, labor costs, competition, import duties, tariffs, anti-dumping duties, currency exchange rates and government regulation. These fluctuations in cost, availability and quality of raw materials used to manufacture our merchandise may result in an increase in our costs

17

to purchase products from our vendors and could have an adverse effect on our cost of goods. Increases in raw material cost may cause us to increase our prices, which may not be acceptable to our customers.

If we do not accurately forecast our inventory needs, efficiently manage inventory levels and have proper controls to protect our inventory, our results of operations could be adversely affected.

We must maintain sufficient inventory levels to operate our business successfully. Sufficient inventory levels are maintained by our ability to accurately forecast the product needs for each distribution channel, our ability to accurately report our inventory levels and our ability to protect those assets.

If we do not accurately anticipate the future customer demand for a particular product, forecast the inventory levels by distribution center and third-party logistics warehouse, report the current inventory level for a particular product, protect the physical inventory or project the time it will take to obtain new inventory, inventory levels will not be appropriate, and our results of operations could be adversely affected. We must also avoid accumulating excess inventory, which increases working capital needs, increases carrying costs of the inventory, including an increase in interest expense on variable rate debt, and could lower gross margins. On the other hand, if we underestimate demand for a particular product, we may experience inventory shortages resulting in lost revenues.

We obtain substantially all our inventory from vendors located outside the United States. Some of these vendors require lengthy advance notice of order requirements in order to be able to supply products in the quantities requested. This usually requires us to order merchandise and enter into commitments for the purchase of such merchandise well in advance of the time these products will be offered for sale, which makes responding to changing markets challenging.

Our own websites, third-party suppliers and third-party marketplaces rely on our ability to report and exchange accurate inventories by style, color and size to support customer orders. If we are not able to accurately report inventory information our results of operations could be negatively impacted.

We store high volumes of inventory and are subject to the attendant risks of inventory loss, spoilage, shrink, scrap and theft (which we collectively refer to as “shrinkage”). Although some level of inventory shrinkage is unavoidable, if we were to experience higher than expected rates of inventory shrinkage, be unable to accurately record inventory transactions or incur increased security costs to combat inventory theft, it could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Deterioration of relationships with our vendors and/or the failure of our new merchandise sourcing initiatives could have an adverse effect on our competitive position and operational results.

We have long standing relationships with the vendors that supply a significant portion of our merchandise but do not operate under long-term agreements. Therefore, our success relies on maintaining good relations with these vendors. Our growth strategy depends to a significant extent on the willingness and ability of our vendors to efficiently supply merchandise that is consistent with our standards for quality and value. In the event we engage new vendors, it may cause us to encounter delays in production and added costs as a result of the time it takes to guide and educate our vendors in producing our products and adhering to our standards. If we cannot obtain a sufficient amount and variety of quality product at acceptable prices, it could have a negative impact on our competitive position. This could result in lower revenues and decreased customer interest in our product offerings, which, in turn, could adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Our arrangements with our vendors are generally not exclusive. As a result, our vendors might be able to sell similar products to our competitors, some of which purchase products in significantly greater volume. Our competitors may enter into arrangements with suppliers that could impair our ability to sell those suppliers’ products, including by requiring suppliers to enter into exclusive arrangements, which could limit our access to such arrangements or products.

18

Our merchandising sourcing strategies are designed to increase the efficiency and responsiveness of our supply chain and include both vendor rationalization, vendor productivity and third-party sourcing assistance. In the event these strategies are unsuccessful, our business could be adversely affected.

Our reputation and customers’ willingness to purchase our products depend in part on our independent vendors and licensing partners compliance with ethical employment practices, such as with respect to child labor, wages and benefits, forced labor, discrimination, freedom of association, unlawful inducements, safe and healthy working conditions, and with all legal and regulatory requirements relating to the conduct of their business and safety standards of materials. While we operate compliance and monitoring programs to promote ethical and lawful business practices and verify compliance with safety standards, we do not exercise ultimate control over our independent vendors and licensing partners or their business practices and cannot guarantee their compliance with ethical and lawful business practices and safety standards. Violation of ethical, labor, safety, or other standards by independent vendors and licensing partners, or the divergence of an independent vendor’s or licensing partner’s labor practices from those generally accepted as ethical in the United States could hurt our reputation or materially impact our ability to import products manufactured by these vendors or from the regions in which they operate, which could have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

We conduct business in and rely on sources for merchandise located in foreign markets and our business may therefore be adversely affected by legal, regulatory, economic and political risks associated with international trade in those markets.

The majority of our merchandise is manufactured in Asia and South America, depending on the nature of the product mix. These products are either imported directly by us or indirectly by distributors who, in turn, sell products to us. Any increase in the cost of merchandise purchased from these vendors or restrictions on the merchandise made available by these vendors could have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

The U.S. government has in the past made, and may in the future make, significant changes in U.S. trade policy and has taken certain actions that could negatively impact U.S. trade, including imposing tariffs on certain goods imported into the United States. In retaliation, China has in the past implemented, and may in the future implement, tariffs on a wide range of American products. There is also a concern that the imposition of tariffs by the United States could result in the adoption of tariffs by other countries as well, leading to a global trade war. More specifically, the U.S. government has from time to time imposed significant tariffs on certain product categories imported from China, including apparel, footwear, beauty and accessories. As of the date of this report, tariffs have not had a material impact on our business, but increased tariffs or trade restrictions implemented by the United States or other countries could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We also sell our products globally. Our reliance on vendors in foreign markets and the marketing of products to customers in foreign markets creates risks inherent in doing business in foreign jurisdictions, including:

•the burdens of complying with a variety of foreign laws and regulations, including trade and labor restrictions;

•economic instability in the countries and regions where our customers or vendors are located;

•adverse fluctuations in currency exchange rates;

•compliance with United States and other country laws relating to foreign operations, including the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the U.K. Modern Slavery Act, the U.K. Bribery Act, the European Union General Data Protection Regulation (the GDPR), the U.K. Data Protection Act 2018, and a growing number of customer privacy initiatives throughout the world;

•changes in United States and non-United States laws affecting the importation and taxation of goods, including duties, tariffs and quotas, enhanced security measures at United States ports, or imposition of new legislation relating to import quotas;

•increases in shipping, labor, fuel, travel and other logistics costs;

19

•the imposition of anti-dumping or countervailing duty proceedings resulting in the potential assessment of special anti-dumping or countervailing duties;

•transportation delays and interruptions, including those due to the failure of vendors or distributors to comply with import regulations;

•political instability, war, such as the current conflict between Russia and Ukraine, hostilities in the Middle East, increasing tension in Southeast Asia, and acts of terrorism; and

•changes in tariffs in the United States that may have an impact on the trading status of certain countries and may include retaliatory duties or other trade sanctions.

Any inability on our part to successfully operate in foreign jurisdictions and rely on our foreign sources of production, due to any of the factors listed above, could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our efforts to expand our distribution channels and geographic reach may not be successful.

Our strategy includes initiatives to further our reach in the United States and in several countries throughout the world through various distribution channels and brands, including through relationships with third-party eCommerce marketplaces. We have limited experience operating in many of these locations and with third parties and face major, established competitors. We may also experience barriers to entry. We may seek additional business partners or licensees to assist us in these efforts, however we may not be successful in establishing such relationships. Moreover, consumer tastes and trends may differ in many of these locations from those in our existing locations, and as a result, the sales of our products may not be successful or profitable. If our expansion efforts are not successful or do not deliver an appropriate return on our investments, our business could be adversely affected.

RISKS RELATED TO INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY, CYBERSECURITY AND DATA PRIVACY

If we fail to maintain or implement new information technology systems, we could experience significant disruptions to our operations.

We employ a variety of third-party and internally-developed systems including web sites, point of sale, telecommunications, email, design and merchandising, production management, inventory management, warehouse management, financial, and human resources systems to maintain our business. Some of these systems are aged and difficult to maintain. All systems are subject to damage or interruption from power outages, computer and telecommunications failures, computer viruses, security breaches, catastrophic events such as fires, tornadoes and hurricanes, and usage errors by our employees or vendors. Such damage or interruption, if pervasive or prolonged, may have a material adverse impact on our business or results of operation.

In support of our business strategies, we implement new solutions and upgrade existing ones to offer, sell and fulfill our products through Lands’ End distribution channels and with wholesale partners, licensees and external marketplaces. As we deploy such changes, we must maintain effective internal controls and operational processes. Any difficulties encountered in completing these activities, as well as problems in technical resources, system performance or system adequacy, including loss or corruption of data, could have an adverse impact on our business.

If we do not adequately protect against cyber security threats, maintain customer privacy, or secure employee and company information, we could experience significant business interruption and become subject to litigation.

Our information technology systems are potentially vulnerable to malicious intrusion and targeted or random cyber-attacks. Although we have invested in the protection and monitoring of our information technology network, proprietary and customer data and systems, there can be no assurance that these efforts will prevent breaches in our information technology systems that could adversely affect our business.

The regulatory environment related to information security and privacy is increasingly rigorous with new and rapidly changing requirements applicable to our business. Compliance with the European Union General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), the California Privacy Rights Act

20

(CPRA) and other privacy laws requires and will continue to require significant management and financial resources. We could be held liable to government agencies, our customers or other parties or be subject to significant fines, regulatory or other actions for breaching privacy and information security laws and regulations, and our business and reputation could be adversely affected by any resulting loss of customer confidence, litigation, civil or criminal penalties or adverse publicity.

Any significant compromise or breach of customer, employee or company data security, could significantly damage our reputation and result in additional costs, lost sales, fines and lawsuits. There can be no assurance that the procedures that we or our third-party providers have implemented to protect against unauthorized access to secured data are adequate to safeguard against all data security breaches.

Our operations are highly dependent upon our information technology systems and failures or interruptions of service or security breaches in our systems may interrupt our operations and harm our business.

Our operations are dependent upon the successful and uninterrupted functioning of our computer and information technology systems. We rely heavily on information technology systems across our operations, including those we use for finance and accounting functions, supply chain management, point-of-sale processing, online and mobile platforms, mobile payment processing, and various other processes and functions. Many of these systems are interdependent on one another for their functionality. Additionally, the success of several of our initiatives to drive growth, including our priority to expand digital engagement with our customers, is highly dependent on the reliability, availability, integrity, scalability and capacity of our information technology systems. We also rely on third-party providers and platforms for some of these information technology systems and support.

Our operational safeguards may not be effective in preventing the failure of these systems to operate effectively and be continuously available to run our business. Such failures may be caused by various factors, including fire, natural disaster, power loss, telecommunications failure, problems with transitioning to upgraded or replacement systems, physical break-ins, programming errors, flaws in third-party software or services, disruptions or service failures of technology infrastructure facilities, such as storage servers, provided by third parties, errors or malfeasance by our employees or third-party service providers or breaches in the security of these systems or platforms, including unauthorized entry and computer viruses. We cannot assure you that we will resolve these system failures and restore our systems and operations in an effective and timely manner. Such system failures and any delayed restore process could result in:

•loss of customers and sales;

•loss or theft of customer, employee or other data;

•negative publicity;

•harm to our business and reputation;

•exposure to litigation claims, government investigations and enforcement actions, fraud losses or other liabilities;

•additional computer and information security and systems development costs; and

•diversion of technical and other resources.

RISKS RELATED TO MAJORITY OWNERSHIP

Edward Lampert and his investment affiliates, whose interests may be different from the interests of other stockholders, may be able to exert substantial influence over Lands’ End.

According to an amendment to Schedule 13D filed with the SEC on February 25, 2025, Edward S. Lampert beneficially owned 55.3% of our outstanding shares of common stock as of February 24, 2025. Accordingly, Mr. Lampert could have substantial influence over any action by us that requires approval by our stockholders, including but not limited to the election of directors and any transactions involving a change of control. The interests of Mr.

21

Lampert, who has direct and indirect investments in other companies, including ESL Investments, Inc., may from time to time diverge from the interests of our other stockholders.

Our common stock price may decline if Mr. Lampert decides to sell a portion of his holdings of our common stock.

Mr. Lampert is not subject to any contractual obligation to maintain his ownership position in Lands’ End, and we cannot assure you that he will. Any sale by Mr. Lampert of our common stock, or any announcement by Mr. Lampert that he has decided to sell shares of our common stock, could have an adverse impact on the price of our common stock. In a letter to the Board of Directors of Lands’ End sent on February 24, 2025, Mr. Lampert stated that if Lands’ End chooses not to pursue a process to sell the company, he intends to seek a buyer for his controlling interest at a fair and appropriate price.

GENERAL RISKS

Our exploration and pursuit of strategic alternatives may not be successful.

On March 7, 2025, we announced that our Board of Directors initiated a process to explore strategic alternatives to maximize shareholder value. Our exploration of strategic alternatives, including a sale, merger or similar transaction, may not result in the identification or consummation of any transaction. In addition, the process of exploring strategic alternatives may be disruptive to our operations and we may incur substantial expenses associated with identifying and evaluating potential strategic alternatives. Any potential transaction and the related valuation would be dependent upon a number of factors that may be beyond our control, including, among other factors, market conditions and industry trends. Further, speculation regarding any developments related to the strategic alternatives process could cause our stock price to fluctuate significantly.

Failure to retain our existing workforce and to attract qualified new personnel in the current labor market and remote and hybrid work models could adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Due to the seasonal nature of our business, we rely heavily on flexible part-time employees to staff our distribution and customer service centers to support our peak seasons, including back-to-school shopping season and fourth quarter holiday shopping season. A potential labor shortage may impact our ability to hire and retain qualified personnel and impact our ability to operate our business effectively. Depending on their position, our employees either work 100% on-site, remotely from home or in a hybrid work model which allows employees to work both remotely from home and in the office. While we have developed and occasionally adjust our work model to achieve what we believe is best for operating our business, we may not be able to attract, hire or retain qualified personnel if competing companies offer a more desirable work model.

Failure to retain our executive management team and to attract qualified new personnel could adversely affect our business and results of operations.

We depend on the talents and continued efforts of our executive management team. The loss of members of our executive management may disrupt our business and adversely affect our results of operations. Furthermore, our ability to manage further expansion will require us to continue to train, motivate and manage employees and to attract, motivate and retain additional qualified personnel. Competition for these types of personnel is intense, and we may not be successful in attracting, assimilating and retaining the personnel required to grow and operate our business profitably.

Other factors may have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Many other factors may affect our profitability and financial condition, including:

•changes in laws and regulations and changes in their interpretation or application, including changes in accounting standards, taxation rates and requirements, product marketing application standards as well as environmental laws, including climate change related legislation, regulations and international accords;

22

•differences between the fair value measurement of assets and liabilities and their actual value, particularly for intangibles and goodwill, contingent liabilities such as litigation, the absence of a recorded amount, or an amount recorded at the minimum, compared to the actual amount;

•changes in the rate of inflation, such as current inflationary pressures, interest rates and the performance of investments held by us;

•changes in the creditworthiness of counterparties that transact business with or provide services to us;

•changes in business, economic and political conditions, including political instability, war, or other geopolitical conflict, terrorist attacks, the threat of future terrorist activity and related military action, natural disasters, the cost and availability of insurance due to any of the foregoing events, labor disputes, strikes, slow-downs or other forms of labor or union activity, and pressure from third-party interest groups;

•negative claim experiences and higher than expected large claims under our self-insured health and workers’ compensation insurance programs; and

•the failure of financial institutions in which we maintain cash deposits, including those where balances may exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance limits.

Our share price may be volatile.

The market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly due to several factors, some of which may be beyond our control, including:

•actual or anticipated fluctuations in our operating results;

•changes in earnings estimated by securities analysts or our ability to meet those estimates;

•the operating and stock price performance of comparable companies;

•changes to the regulatory and legal environment under which we operate; and

•domestic and worldwide economic conditions.

Further, when the market price of a company’s common stock drops significantly, stockholders often initiate securities class action lawsuits against the company. A lawsuit against us could cause us to incur substantial costs and could divert the time and attention of our senior management and other resources.

Your percentage ownership in Lands’ End may be diluted in the future.

In the future, your percentage ownership in Lands’ End may be diluted because of equity issuances for acquisitions, strategic investments, capital market transactions or otherwise, including equity awards that we may grant to our directors, officers and employees.

Exposure to periodic litigation and other regulatory proceedings, including with respect to product liability claims. These proceedings may be affected by changes in laws and government regulations or changes in their enforcement.

From time to time, we may be involved in lawsuits and regulatory actions relating to our business or products we sell or have sold. These proceedings may be in jurisdictions with reputations for aggressive application of laws and procedures against corporate defendants. We are impacted by trends in litigation, including class-action allegations brought under various consumer protection and employment laws, including wage and hour laws, privacy laws, and laws relating to eCommerce. Due to the inherent uncertainties of litigation and regulatory proceedings, we cannot accurately predict the ultimate outcome of any such proceedings. An unfavorable outcome could have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

23

Potential assessments for additional state taxes, which could adversely affect our business.

In accordance with current law, we pay, collect and/or remit taxes for Federal, State and local and foreign jurisdictions where we are required by law. While we believe that we have appropriately remitted all taxes based on our interpretation of applicable law, tax laws are complex, and their application differs by taxing jurisdiction.

An increasing number of taxing jurisdictions may attempt to assess additional taxes and penalties on us or assert an error in our calculation. These include new obligations to collect sales, consumption, value added, or other taxes on online marketplaces and remote sellers, or other requirements that may result in liability for third-party obligations. A change in the application of law, or an interpretation of the law that differs from our own may, if successful, adversely affect our business and results of operations.

ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS

Not applicable.

ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY

We have developed and implemented a cybersecurity risk management program intended to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of our critical systems and information. Our cybersecurity risk management program includes a written data security incident response policy and a security incident response plan, which were first developed in 2017 and are periodically reviewed and updated.

We have designed and assessed our program using the National Institute of Standards and Technology Cybersecurity Framework (“NIST CSF”) as a guide to help us identify, assess, and manage cybersecurity risks relevant to our business.

Our cybersecurity risk management program is integrated into our overall enterprise risk management program, and shares common methodologies, reporting channels and governance processes that apply across the enterprise risk management program to our legal, compliance, strategic, operational, and financial risk areas.

Our cybersecurity risk management program includes:

•a written data security incident response policy and a security incident response plan that include detailed procedures for responding to cybersecurity incidents, determining severity of cybersecurity incidents and notifying appropriate internal and external parties;

•third-party and internal risk assessments designed to help identify material cybersecurity risks to our critical systems, information, products, services, and our broader enterprise information technology environment;

•a security team consisting of members of our information technology department, principally responsible for managing (1) our cybersecurity risk assessment processes, (2) our security controls, and (3) our response to cybersecurity incidents;

•periodic tabletop exercises involving the security team, the data security incident management team, and members of management, with special sessions for the Board of Directors;

•annual audit by a Payment Card Industry (“PCI”) qualified security risk assessor to validate our PCI-Data Security Standard (“PCI-DSS”) compliance;

•the use of external service providers, where appropriate, to assess, test or otherwise assist with aspects of our security controls;

•regular cybersecurity awareness training, including social engineering and phishing testing of our employees, incident response personnel, and senior management;

•deployment of external tools designed to detect and protect against spam, malware and other cybersecurity threats and train personnel; and

24

•third-party security event monitoring.

There can be no assurance that our cybersecurity risk management program and processes, including our policies, controls or procedures, will be adequate, fully complied with or effective in protecting our systems and information.

We have not identified risks from known cybersecurity threats, including as a result of any prior cybersecurity incidents, that have materially affected us, including our operations, business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition. We face risks from cybersecurity threats that, if realized, are reasonably likely to materially affect us, including our operations, business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition. See “Risk Factors – RISKS RELATED TO INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY, CYBERSECURITY AND DATA PRIVACY.”

Cybersecurity Governance

Our Board considers cybersecurity risk as part of its risk oversight function and has delegated to the Audit Committee oversight of data protection and cybersecurity risks as part of the Audit Committee’s oversight of the Company’s enterprise risk management framework. The Audit Committee regularly reports to the full Board regarding its activities, including those related to cybersecurity.

The Audit Committee receives regular reports from management on our cybersecurity risks, which include updates on trends and threats, the Company’s backup and restore systems, internal and external risk assessments, results of PCI and other security audits, and planned updates and upgrades. The Audit Committee also receives regular enterprise risk management updates, which include management of cybersecurity risks.

In accordance with our data security incident response plan, management is required to promptly update and discuss with the Audit Committee any material or potentially material cybersecurity incidents and provide an update to the Board upon determination that an incident is material. Management regularly updates the Audit Committee regarding incidents with lesser impact potential.

Our management team, including our Chief Financial Officer, Chief Technology Officer and General Counsel (the cybersecurity disclosure committee), is responsible for assessing material risks from cybersecurity threats and our General Counsel oversees any required reporting obligations and notifications. Our Chief Technology Officer has primary responsibility for overseeing our security incident response plan, including identification and initial assessment of threat levels and escalations.

Critical incidents are escalated to a cross functional data security incident management team for review, which then escalates potentially material incidents and threats to the cybersecurity disclosure committee for determinations of materiality and Audit Committee and Board communications. Our Chief Technology Officer has over 20 years of experience with cybersecurity management response, and multiple direct reports who have 10 or more years of experience leading technology infrastructure and security incident response. Our General Counsel has over eight years of experience leading our incident response management team.

Our Chief Technology Officer is the primary point of responsibility for cybersecurity risk management program and supervises both our internal cybersecurity personnel and our retained external cybersecurity consultants. Our management team supervises efforts to prevent, detect, mitigate, and remediate cybersecurity risks and incidents through various means, which may include briefings from internal security personnel; threat intelligence and other information obtained from governmental, public or private sources, including external consultants engaged by us; and alerts and reports produced by security tools deployed in the information technology environment.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

Facilities and Store Locations

We own or lease domestic and international properties used as offices, customer service centers, distribution centers and Company Operated stores. We believe that our existing facilities are well maintained and are sufficient to meet our current needs. We review all leases with upcoming expiration dates in the short term to determine the appropriate action to take with respect to them, including exercising an option to renew, if any, moving or closing facilities or entering into new leases.

Domestic Headquarters, Customer Service and Distribution Properties

The headquarters for our business is located on an approximately 200 acre campus in Dodgeville, Wisconsin. The Dodgeville campus includes approximately 1.8 million square feet of building space between multiple different buildings that are all owned by the Company. The primary functions of these buildings are customer service, distribution center and corporate headquarters. We also own customer service and distribution centers in Reedsburg and Stevens Point, Wisconsin.

International Offices, Customer Service and Distribution Properties

We own a distribution center and customer service center in Oakham, United Kingdom that supports our European business. We lease one building in Mettlach, Germany for offices supporting our European Union business. We also lease office space for our global sourcing office located in Kwun Tong, Hong Kong.

Lands’ End Retail Properties

As of January 31, 2025, our U.S. retail footprint consists of 24 Company Operated stores. The U.S. Company Operated stores are leased and average approximately 7,900 square feet. Additionally, we have two smaller school uniform showrooms that are used for fittings.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company is party to various claims, legal proceedings and investigations arising in the ordinary course of business. Some of these actions involve complex factual and legal issues and are subject to uncertainties. At this time, the Company is not able to either predict the outcome of these legal proceedings or reasonably estimate a potential range of loss with respect to the proceedings. While it is not feasible to predict the outcome of pending claims, proceedings and investigations with certainty, management is of the opinion that their ultimate resolution should not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows or financial position taken as a whole.

Lands’ End is the defendant in three separate lawsuits, each of which allege adverse health events and personal property damage as a result of wearing uniforms manufactured by Lands’ End: (1) Gilbert et al. v. Lands’ End, Inc., United States District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin, Civil Action No. 3:19-cv-00823-JDP, complaint filed October 3, 2019; (2) Andrews et al. v. Lands’ End, Inc., United States District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin, Civil Action No. 3:19-cv-01066-JDP, complaint filed on December 31, 2019, on behalf of 521 named plaintiffs, later amended to include 1,089 named plaintiffs; and (3) Davis et al. v. Lands’ End, Inc. and Lands’ End Business Outfitters, Inc., United States District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin, Case No. 3:20-cv-00195, complaint filed on March 4, 2020. Plaintiffs in Gilbert, Andrews, and Davis seek nationwide class certification on behalf of similarly situated Delta employees.

By order dated April 20, 2020, the Court consolidated the Gilbert and Andrews cases (the “Consolidated Wisconsin Action”) and stayed the Davis case. Plaintiffs in the Consolidated Wisconsin Action and Davis each assert that the damages sustained by the members of the proposed class exceed $5,000,000. Plaintiffs in each case seek damages for personal injuries, pain and suffering, severe emotional distress, financial or economic loss, including medical services and expenses, lost income and other compensable injuries. Plaintiffs in the Consolidated Wisconsin

26

Action seek class certification with respect to performance of the uniforms and warranty claims and maintain individual claims for personal injury by numerous named plaintiffs.

On August 18, 2021, the Court ruled on several pending motions in the Consolidated Wisconsin Action. The Court denied Plaintiffs’ motion for class certification with respect to performance of the uniforms and warranty claims. The Court denied Plaintiffs’ motion for partial summary judgment regarding crocking claims and granted Lands’ End’s motion for partial summary judgment related to certain warranty claims. In addition, giving effect to both the addition and voluntary dismissal of individual plaintiffs over the course of the litigation, the number of individual plaintiffs had been reduced from 1,089 to 603 as of August 18, 2021. On September 1, 2021, Plaintiffs filed a Rule 23(f) petition, seeking interlocutory review of the Court’s decision denying class certification. On September 22, 2021, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit denied plaintiffs’ petition.

On July 8, 2022, the Court issued an Opinion and Order in the Consolidated Wisconsin Action (the “July 8 Opinion”), ruling in the Company’s favor on several additional pending motions. The Court granted the Company’s motion to exclude Plaintiffs’ expert opinions because the opinions were not based on reliably applied and scientifically valid methods. Accordingly, because Plaintiffs failed to submit evidence sufficient to show that the uniforms were defective or that a defect in the uniforms caused Plaintiffs’ alleged health problems, the Court granted the Company’s motion for summary judgement on Plaintiffs’ personal injury claims.

After giving effect to the July 8 Opinion, the remaining claims under the Consolidated Wisconsin Action related to claims for property damage and breach of warranty. Following these rulings and an order of the court dated December 1, 2022, 277 named Plaintiffs remained in the case who claim they have suffered personal property damage as a result of dye transferring to personal items, with aggregate claims of approximately $110,000 in damages. The Court set a deadline for the parties to voluntarily resolve these remaining outstanding claims, and on July 19, 2023 the parties reported to the Court that they had reached a settlement in principle of the matter, and subsequently entered into a Confidential Settlement, fully resolving the outstanding property damage claims, which were the only remaining claims in the action.

Following the entry of the Final Order by the Court on October 12, 2023, Plaintiffs filed an appeal to the Seventh Circuit. On November 13, 2023, the Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit issued an Order suspending the briefing schedule pending a remand to the district court for the limited purpose of issuing a revised final judgement order. On February 15, 2024, the Court of Appeals for the Seventh District remanded the case to the District Court for entry of a final judgement. On February 20, 2024, the District Court entered final judgement in favor of Lands’ End. On March 18, 2024, the Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit issued a briefing schedule. All briefs have been filed and oral argument occurred on November 14, 2024. The parties await the decision of the appellate court. Lands’ End continues its vigorous defense of this case and believes the claims are without merit.

Executive Overview

Description of the Company

Lands’ End, Inc. is a leading digital retailer of solution-based apparel, swimwear, outerwear, accessories, footwear, home products and uniforms. We offer products online at www.landsend.com, through third-party distribution channels, our own Company Operated stores and third-party license agreements. We also offer products to businesses and schools, for their employees and students, through the Outfitters distribution channel. We are a classic American lifestyle brand that creates solutions for life’s every journey.

Lands’ End was founded in 1963 by Gary Comer and his partners to sell sailboat hardware and equipment by catalog. While our product focus has shifted significantly over the years, we have continued to adhere to our founder’s motto as one of our guiding principles: “Take care of the customer, take care of the employee and the rest will take care of itself.”

Segment Reporting

We identify our operating segments according to how our business activities are managed and evaluated. Following internal organizational changes and realignment of distribution channel responsibilities in Fourth Quarter 2024, our operating segments consisted of: U.S. eCommerce, Europe eCommerce, Outfitters, Third Party, Licensing and Retail. Beginning Fourth Quarter 2024, the Wholesale business is included in Licensing and prior periods were recast to reflect the change in operating segments for comparability purposes. During Fiscal 2022, the Company’s operating segments included Japan eCommerce.

We have determined that the U.S. eCommerce, Outfitters and Third Party operating segments share similar economic and other qualitative characteristics, and therefore, the results of these operating segments are aggregated into the U.S. Digital segment. The Europe eCommerce, Licensing and Retail operating segments are not quantitatively significant to be separately reported. See Note 13, Segment Reporting.

30

Distribution Channels

We identify six separate distribution channels for revenue reporting purposes.

•U.S. eCommerce offers products through our eCommerce website.

•Europe eCommerce offers products primarily to consumers located in Europe and through eCommerce international websites and third-party affiliates.

•Outfitters sells uniform and logo apparel to businesses and their employees, as well as to student households through school relationships, located primarily in the U.S.

•Third Party sells products direct to consumers through third-party marketplace websites.

•Licensing earns royalties on the use of Lands’ End trademark and any fulfillment fees for fulfillment services provided by the Company.

•Retail sells products through Company Operated stores, located in the U.S.

Macroeconomic Challenges

Macroeconomic issues which impact consumer discretionary spending, such as realized inflation-based price increases and high interest rates have continued to have an impact on our business. Apparel purchases historically have been influenced by domestic and global economic conditions, which may negatively impact customer demand and may require higher levels of promotion in order to attract and retain customers. Additionally, the variable interest rates associated with our Debt Facilities are negatively affected by higher interest rate environments. Macroeconomic challenges may lead to increased cost of raw materials, packaging materials, labor, energy, fuel, debt and other inputs necessary for the production and distribution of our products. Moreover, uncertainty with respect to trade policy and tariffs, including increased tariffs applicable to countries where our vendors manufacture our product, may result in an increase in the cost of our products.

Restructuring

During Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023, we reduced approximately 10% of our corporate office positions and incurred restructuring charges, primarily severance and benefit and other related costs. The reductions in the corporate office positions were made to better align with the evolving needs of the business and to invest in key growth areas. For the 52 and 53 weeks ended January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, we incurred restructuring charges, primarily severance and benefit costs, related to cost optimization of business operations and strategic initiatives of $5.6 million and $7.3 million, respectively, recorded in Other operating expense, net in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Lands’ End Japan Closure

During Second Quarter 2022, the Board of Directors approved a plan to wind down and cease operations of Lands’ End Japan KK. Lands’ End Japan KK represents the Japan eCommerce operating segment. The final liquidation occurred in First Quarter 2024. We incurred no closing costs in Fiscal 2024 and approximately $0.3 million during Fiscal 2023, respectively, recorded in Other operating expense, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. See Note 8, Lands’ End Japan Closure.

Basis of Presentation

The Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and include the accounts of Lands’ End, Inc. and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

We experience seasonal fluctuations in our Net revenue and operating results and historically have realized a significant portion of our yearly net revenue and earnings during our fourth fiscal quarter. We generated approximately

31

34.0% of our yearly net revenue in the fourth quarters of Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023. Thus, lower than expected fourth quarter net revenue may have an adverse impact on our annual operating results.

Working capital requirements typically increase during the second and third quarters of the fiscal year as inventory builds to support peak selling periods and typically decrease during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year as inventory is sold. Cash provided by operating activities is typically higher in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year due to reduced working capital requirements during that period.

Results of Operations

Fiscal Year. Our fiscal year end is on the Friday preceding the Saturday closest to January 31 each year. The fiscal periods in this report are presented as follows, unless the context otherwise requires:

Fiscal Year	Ended	Weeks

Depreciation and amortization are not included in our cost of sales because we are a reseller of inventory and do not believe that including depreciation and amortization is meaningful. As a result, our gross margins may not be comparable to other entities that include depreciation and amortization related to the sale of their product in their gross margin measure.

Definitions, Reconciliations and Uses of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to our Net income (loss) determined in accordance with GAAP, for purposes of evaluating operating performance, we report the following non-GAAP measures: Adjusted net income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted net income (loss) is also expressed on a diluted per share basis.

We believe presenting non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors, allowing them to assess how the business performed excluding the effects of significant non-recurring or non-operational amounts. We believe the use of the non-GAAP financial measures facilitates comparing the results being reported against past and future results by eliminating amounts that we believe are not comparable between periods and assists investors in evaluating the effectiveness of our operations and underlying business trends in a manner that is consistent with management’s own methods for evaluating business performance.

32

Our management uses Adjusted net income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate the operating performance of our business for comparable periods and to discuss our business with our Board of Directors, institutional investors and other market participants. Adjusted EBITDA is also used as the basis for a performance measure used in executive incentive compensation.

The methods we use to calculate our non-GAAP financial measures may differ significantly from methods other companies use to compute similar measures. As a result, any non-GAAP financial measures presented herein may not be comparable to similar measures provided by other companies. Adjusted net income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA should not be used by investors or other third parties as the sole basis for formulating investment decisions as these measures may exclude a number of important cash and non-cash recurring items.

Adjusted net income (loss) is defined as net income (loss) excluding significant non-recurring or non-operational items as set forth below. Adjusted net income (loss) is also presented on a diluted per share basis. While Adjusted net income (loss) is a non-GAAP measurement, management believes that it is an important indicator of operating performance and useful to investors.

•Other significant non-recurring or non-operational items, while periodically affecting our results, may vary significantly from period to period and have a disproportionate effect in a given period, which affects comparability of results and are described below:

•Restructuring – primarily severance and benefit costs for Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023, respectively.

•Goodwill and long-lived asset impairment – charges associated with the non-cash write down of certain long-lived assets and goodwill for Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023, respectively.

•Exit costs – charges associated to exit the kids and footwear lines of business including inventory excess and obsolescence reserves, inventory discounts and operational charges recorded in Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023, respectively, in conjunction with our licensing arrangements commencing in Fiscal 2024.

•Loss on extinguishment of debt – prepayment premium associated with the repayment of the Former Term Loan Facility before the scheduled maturity date and the write off of related unamortized original issue discount and debt issuance costs of the Former Term Loan Facility for Fiscal 2023.

•(Gain) loss on disposal of property and equipment – gain on sale of a building and excess land in Fiscal 2024.

•Lands’ End Japan closure – net operating income (loss) from liquidation and closing costs recorded for Fiscal 2023.

Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding		31,664			31,970

(1)The tax impact of adjustments is calculated at the applicable U.S. and non-U.S. Federal and State statutory rates.

While Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measurement, management believes that it is an important indicator of operating performance, and useful to investors because EBITDA excludes the effects of financings, investing activities and tax structure by eliminating the effects of interest, depreciation and income tax.

•Other significant items, while periodically affecting our results, may vary significantly from period to period and have a disproportionate effect in a given period, which affects comparability of results and are described below:

•Restructuring – primarily severance and benefit costs for Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023, respectively.

•Goodwill and long-lived asset impairment – charges associated with the non-cash write down of certain long-lived assets and goodwill in Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023.

•Exit costs – charges associated to exit the kids and footwear lines of business including inventory excess and obsolescence reserves, inventory discounts and operational charges recorded in Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023, respectively, in conjunction with our licensing arrangements commencing in Fiscal 2024.

•Lands’ End Japan closure – net operating income (loss) from liquidation and closing costs recorded in Fiscal 2023.

•Net gain or loss on disposal of property and equipment – disposal of property and equipment in Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023.

•Other – amortization of transaction related costs associated with our Licensing distribution channel in Fiscal 2023.

In assessing the operational performance of our business, we consider a variety of financial measures. We operate in six separate distribution channels for revenue reporting purposes: U.S. eCommerce, Europe eCommerce, Outfitters, Third Party, Licensing and Retail. A key measure in the evaluation of our business is revenue performance by distribution channel as well as consolidated Gross margin. We manage and assess the performance of each of our operating segments using Variable profit, which is defined as Net revenue minus cost of sales and variable selling expenses. This segment measure excludes fixed personnel costs, incentive compensation, office occupancy, information technology, professional fees and depreciation and amortization. See Note 13, Segment Reporting for more information regarding Variable profit, which is a non-GAAP measure, as well as a reconciliation of Variable profit to Income (loss) before income taxes.

We use Net revenue to evaluate revenue performance for the U.S. eCommerce, Europe eCommerce, Outfitters, Third Party and Licensing distribution channels. We use GMV, which equals total order value of all Lands’ End branded merchandise sold to customers through business-to-consumer and business-to-business channels, as well as the retail value of the merchandise sold through third party distribution channels, as an important indicator of the performance of the comparable growth of the total brand. For our Retail distribution channel, we use Same Store Sales as a key measure in evaluating performance. A Company Operated store is included in U.S. Same Store Sales calculations when it has been open for at least 14 months. Online sales and sales generated through our in-store web portal are considered revenue in our U.S. eCommerce and are excluded from U.S. Same Store Sales.

Discussion and Analysis

Fiscal 2024 Compared to Fiscal 2023

Gross Merchandise Value

Gross Merchandise Value (“GMV”) increased low-single digits compared to Fiscal 2023. Excluding the 53rd week of Fiscal 2023, GMV increased mid-single digits.

Net Revenue

Total Net revenue was $1.36 billion in Fiscal 2024, a decrease of $109.6 million or 7.4% from $1.47 billion in Fiscal 2023. The decrease in Net revenue was driven by the transition of the kids and footwear product lines to licensing arrangements and optimizing promotional activity as we focused on higher quality sales resulting in higher gross margins and increased gross profit. Excluding the net impact of transitioning kids and footwear product lines to licensing arrangements of $96.6 million, the $31.2 million inventory buyout by a corporate client at the end of its contract in Fiscal 2023 and the impact of the 53rd week in Fiscal 2023 of $16.2 million, total Net revenue increased $34.5 million or 2.6% compared to Fiscal 2023.

U.S. Digital Segment Net revenue was $1.15 billion in Fiscal 2024, a decrease of $138.6 million or 10.7% from $1.29 billion in Fiscal 2023. Excluding the net impact of the licensing transition, the inventory buyout and the 53rd week, U.S. Digital Segment Net revenue increased $3.7 million or 0.3% compared to Fiscal 2023.

U.S. eCommerce Net revenue decreased 9.4%, driven by the transition of kids and footwear products from a direct to a license model, continued promotional productivity within swimwear, outerwear and newness in adjacent product categories and improved inventory management resulting in higher margins with lower clearance inventory sales. Excluding the net impact of the licensing transition and the 53rd week, U.S. eCommerce Net revenue increased 2.3% compared to Fiscal 2023.

Outfitters Net revenue decreased 15.5%, primarily driven by inventory sales to a corporate client at the conclusion of their contract in the First Quarter 2023. Excluding the inventory buyout and the 53rd week, Outfitters Net revenue decreased 2.9% compared to Fiscal 2023.

Third Party Net revenue decreased 10.1%, primarily driven by continued promotional productivity with curated assortments and improved inventory management resulting in higher gross margins. Excluding the impact of the 53rd week, Third Party Net revenue decreased 8.7% compared to Fiscal 2023.

Europe eCommerce Net revenue was $103.1 million in Fiscal 2024, a decrease of $9.8 million or 8.7% from $112.9 million in Fiscal 2023. The decrease in Europe eCommerce Net revenue was primarily driven by the continued focus on gross margin improvement through higher gross profit sales as well as a decrease in markdown and clearance sales.

Licensing and Retail Net revenue was $105.4 million in Fiscal 2024, an increase of $38.9 million or 58.5% from $66.5 million in Fiscal 2023, primarily driven by revenue from licensing arrangements including Lands’ End produced inventory sold to a licensee in First Quarter 2024 in connection with the transition of kids’ products from a direct to a license model. Our U.S. Company Operated Stores experienced an increase of 3.0% in Same Store Sales as compared to Fiscal 2023. On January 31, 2025, there were 23 U.S. Company Operated stores included in Same Store Sales compared to 26 U.S. Company Operated stores on February 2, 2024.

Gross Profit

In Fiscal 2024, total Gross profit increased 4.4% to $653.3 million compared to $625.5 million for Fiscal 2023. Gross margin increased 550 basis points to 47.9% in Fiscal 2024 compared to 42.5% in Fiscal 2023. The improvement in Gross margin was primarily driven by leveraging the strength in the swimwear, outerwear and newness in adjacent

36

product categories across the channels, lower promotional activity and improvements in both inventory management and supply chain costs for Fiscal 2024 compared to Fiscal 2023.

Selling and Administrative Expenses

Selling and administrative expenses were $561.8 million, or 41.2% of total Net revenue in Fiscal 2024, compared to $550.2 million, or 37.4% of total Net revenue in Fiscal 2023. The approximately 380 basis points increase was driven by deleveraging from lower revenues, higher digital marketing spend focused on new customer acquisition and third party professional services.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization were $33.8 million in Fiscal 2024, a decrease of $4.7 million or 12.2%, compared to $38.5 million in Fiscal 2023. The decrease in depreciation and amortization is primarily driven by lower software depreciation in Fiscal 2024 as a result of major projects becoming fully depreciated.

Other Operating Expense, Net

Other operating expense, net was $6.8 million in Fiscal 2024 compared to $7.7 million in Fiscal 2023.

Operating Income (Loss)

Operating income was $51.0 million in Fiscal 2024, compared to Operating loss of $77.5 million in Fiscal 2023. The increase of $128.5 million was primarily attributed to the $106.7 million non-cash goodwill impairment charge recorded in Third Quarter 2023.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $40.4 million in Fiscal 2024, compared to $48.3 million in Fiscal 2023. The $7.9 million decrease was primarily driven by lower ABL Facility interest related to lower average outstanding balances and lower amortization of debt issuance costs and lower applicable interest rates on the Current Term Loan Facility.

Loss on Extinguishment of Debt

There was no loss on extinguishment of debt in Fiscal 2024, compared to $6.7 million in Fiscal 2023. We incurred a 1% prepayment premium and recorded the write-off of unamortized original issue discount and debt issuance costs related to the repayment of our Former Term Loan Facility before the scheduled maturity date in Fiscal 2023.

Other Expense (Income)

Other expense was insignificant in Fiscal 2024 compared to other income of $0.7 million in Fiscal 2023.

Income Tax Expense (Benefit)

Income tax expense of $4.3 million was recorded for Fiscal 2024 which resulted in an effective tax rate of 40.6%. This compared to Income tax benefit of $1.1 million in Fiscal 2023 which resulted in an effective tax rate of 0.9%. The Fiscal 2024 tax rate was higher than Fiscal 2023 primarily due to an impairment of goodwill recorded in Fiscal 2023 that was not deductible for tax purposes and as a result of pretax income in Fiscal 2024 compared to a pretax loss in Fiscal 2023.

Net Income (Loss)

As a result of the above factors, Net income was $6.2 million, or diluted earnings per share of $0.20 in Fiscal 2024 compared to Net loss of $130.7 million, or diluted loss per share of $4.09 in Fiscal 2023.

37

Adjusted Net Income (Loss)

As a result of the above factors, Adjusted net income was $12.6 million and Adjusted diluted earnings per share was $0.40 in Fiscal 2024 compared to Adjusted net loss of $4.8 million and Adjusted diluted net loss per share of $0.15 in Fiscal 2023, representing an increase of $17.4 million, or $0.55 per diluted share.

Adjusted EBITDA

As a result of the above factors, Adjusted EBITDA was $92.6 million in Fiscal 2024, compared to $84.3 million in Fiscal 2023.

U.S. Digital Segment Results of Operations

Variable Profit

U.S. Digital Segment Variable profit was $265.4 million in Fiscal 2024, a decrease of $0.5 million compared to $265.9 million in Fiscal 2023. U.S. Digital Segment Variable profit was 23.0% of Net revenue in Fiscal 2024, which is an increase of 240 basis points compared to 20.6% of Net revenue in Fiscal 2023. The increase in Variable profit as a percentage of Net revenue was driven by continued promotional activity, supply chain improvements in Product and Shipping cost of goods sold partially offset by an increase in Marketing expenses.

Product cost of goods sold was $444.1 million or 38.5% of Net revenue in Fiscal 2024 compared to $553.2 million or 42.8% of Net revenue in Fiscal 2023. Shipping cost of goods sold was $157.6 million or 13.6% of Net revenue in Fiscal 2024 compared to $190.1 million or 14.7% of Net revenue in Fiscal 2023. The improvement in Product and Shipping cost of goods sold as a percent of Net revenue was primarily due to improvements in both inventory management and supply chain costs for Fiscal 2024 compared to Fiscal 2023. Marketing expenses were $179.5 million or 15.5% of Net revenue in Fiscal 2024 compared to $174.7 million or 13.5% of Net revenue in Fiscal 2023. The increase in Marketing expenses was primarily due to higher digital spend focused on new customer acquisition.

U.S. Digital Segment Fiscal 2023 Compared to Fiscal 2022

U.S. Digital Segment Net revenue was $1.29 billion in Fiscal 2023, a decrease of $15.6 million or 1.2% from $1.31 billion in Fiscal 2022. U.S. eCommerce Net revenue decreased by 2.7%, primarily driven by promotional productivity in key product solutions and adjacent product categories with improved inventory management resulting in higher margins with lower clearance inventory sales. Outfitters Net revenue increased 1.5%. Third Party Net revenue increased 6.6%, primarily driven by growth in online sales through existing marketplaces.

U.S. Digital Segment Variable profit was $265.9 million in Fiscal 2023, an increase of $31.3 million compared to $234.6 million in Fiscal 2023. U.S. Digital Segment Variable profit was 20.6% of Net revenue in Fiscal 2023, which was an increase of 270 basis points compared to 17.9% of Net revenue in Fiscal 2022. The increase in Variable profit as a percentage of Net revenue was driven by continued promotional productivity, supply chain improvements in Product and Shipping cost of goods sold partially offset by an increase in Marketing expenses.

Product cost of goods sold was $553.2 million or 42.8% of Net revenue in Fiscal 2023 compared to $590.1 million or 45.1% of Net revenue in Fiscal 2022. Shipping cost of goods sold was $190.1 million or 14.7% of Net revenue in Fiscal 2023 compared to $213.8 million or 16.3% of Net revenue in Fiscal 2022. The improvement in Product and Shipping cost of goods sold as a percent of Net revenue was primarily driven by leveraging the strength in product solutions and newness across the channels, reduction in clearance inventory and improvements in supply chain costs for Fiscal 2023 compared to Fiscal 2022. Marketing expenses were $174.7 million or 13.5% of Net

38

revenue in Fiscal 2023 compared to $167.4 million or 12.8% of Net revenue in Fiscal 2022. The increase in Marketing expenses was primarily due to higher digital spend focused on new customer acquisition.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity

Our primary need for liquidity is to fund working capital requirements of our business, capital expenditures, debt service and for general corporate purposes. Our cash and cash equivalents and the ABL Facility serve as sources of liquidity for short-term working capital needs and general corporate purposes. The ABL Facility had no balance outstanding as of January 31, 2025, other than letters of credit. Cash generated from our net revenue and profitability, and to a lesser extent our changes in working capital, are driven by the seasonality of our business, with a significant amount of net revenue and operating cash flows generally occurring in the fourth fiscal quarter of each year. We expect that our cash on hand and cash flows from operations, along with revolving on the ABL Facility, will be adequate to meet our capital requirements and operational needs for at least the next 12 months.

ABL Facility

Our $275.0 million committed revolving ABL Facility includes a $70.0 million sublimit for letters of credit and is available for working capital and other general corporate liquidity needs and matures on July 29, 2026. The amount available to borrow is the lesser of (1) the Aggregate Commitments of $275.0 million (“ABL Facility Limit”) or (2) the Borrowing Base or Loan Cap which is calculated from Eligible Inventory, Trade Receivables and Credit Card Receivables, all foregoing capitalized terms not defined herein are as defined in the ABL Facility.

Effective with the Fourth Amendment to the ABL Facility executed May 12, 2023, the benchmark interest rate was changed from LIBOR to SOFR plus an adjustment of 0.10% for all loans (“ABL Adjusted SOFR”). Loan interest rates are selected at the borrower’s election, is either (1) ABL Adjusted SOFR, or (2) a base rate which is the greater of (a) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (b) the one-month ABL Adjusted SOFR rate plus 1.00%, or (c) the Wells Fargo “prime rate.” The borrowing margin for ABL Adjusted SOFR loans is (i) less than $95.0 million, 1.25%, (ii) equal to or greater than $95.0 million but less than $180.0 million, 1.50%, and (iii) greater than or equal to $180.0 million, 1.75%. For base rate loans, the borrowing margin is (i) less than $95.0 million, 0.50%, (ii) equal to or greater than $95.0 million but less than $180.0 million, 0.75%, and (iii) greater than or equal to $180.0 million, 1.00% (“Applicable Borrowing Margin”). The Applicable Borrowing Margin for all loans is based upon the average daily total loans outstanding for the previous quarter. The Fourth Amendment had no material interest rate impact.

The ABL Facility fees include (i) commitment fees of 0.25% based upon the average daily unused commitment (aggregate commitment less loans and letter of credit outstanding) under the ABL Facility for the preceding fiscal quarter, (ii) customary letter of credit fees and (iii) customary annual agent fees.

There was no balance outstanding under the ABL Facility as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024. The balance of outstanding letters of credit was $10.1 million and $9.1 million as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, respectively. The borrowing availability under the ABL Facility was $129.3 million and $167.2 million as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, respectively

Long-Term Debt

On December 29, 2023, we entered into the Current Term Loan Facility which provides borrowings of $260.0 million, the proceeds of which were used to repay all of the indebtedness under the Former Term Loan Facility and to pay fees and expenses in connection with the financing. Origination costs, including a 3% original issue discount of $7.8 million and debt origination fees of $3.8 million, were incurred in connection with entering into the Current Term Loan Facility.

The Current Term Loan Facility will mature on December 29, 2028, and amortizes at a rate equal to 1.25% per quarter. Depending upon the Company’s Total Leverage Ratio, as defined in the Current Term Loan Facility,

39

mandatory prepayments in an amount equal to a percentage of the Company’s excess cash flows in each fiscal year, ranging from 0% to 75% are required. The Current Term Loan Facility also has typical prepayment requirements for the proceeds of certain asset sales, casualty events and extraordinary receipts. Voluntary prepayment and certain mandatory prepayments made (i) between December 30, 2024 and December 29, 2025 would result in a prepayment premium equal to 2% of the principal amount of the loan prepaid, (ii) between December 30, 2025 and December 29, 2026, would result in a prepayment premium equal to 1% of the principal amount of the loan prepaid, (iii) between December 30, 2026 and December 29, 2027, would result in a prepayment premium equal to 0.5% of the principal amount of the loan prepaid and (iv) thereafter no prepayment premium is due.

The interest rates per annum applicable to the loans under the Current Term Loan Facility are based on a fluctuating rate of interest equal to, at the Company’s election, either (1) Term Loan Adjusted SOFR loan (subject to a 2% floor) plus an applicable margin, or (2) an alternative base rate loan plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin is based on the Company’s net leverage and will be, (i) for Term Loan Adjusted SOFR loans, 8.25% per annum if the total leverage ratio is greater than or equal to 2.75:1.00, 8.00% per annum if the total leverage ratio is less than 2.75:1.00 but greater than or equal to 2.25:1.00, and 7.75% per annum if the total leverage ratio is less than 2.25:1.00 and (ii) for base rate loans, 7.25% per annum if the total leverage ratio is greater than or equal to 2.75:1.00, 7.00% per annum if the total leverage ratio is less than 2.75:1.00 but greater than or equal to 2.25:1.00, and 6.75% per annum if the total leverage ratio is less than 2.25:1.00. In each case, the net leverage is determined as of the last day of each applicable measurement period.

Effective with the First Amendment to the Former Term Loan Facility executed June 22, 2023, the interest rate benchmark changed from LIBOR to Term Loan Adjusted SOFR. The annual interest rate applicable to the loans under the Former Term Loan Facility was based on a fluctuating rate of interest measured by reference to, at the borrower’s election, either (1) a Term Loan Adjusted SOFR rate plus 9.75% or (2) an alternative base rate (which was the greater of (i) the prime rate published in the Wall Street Journal, (ii) the federal funds rate, which was to be no lower than 0.00% plus ½ of 1.00%, or (iii) the one month Term Loan Adjusted SOFR rate plus 1.00% per annum) plus 8.75%.

Both the Current Term Loan Facility and the Former Term Loan Facility contain customary agency fees.

Subject to specified exceptions, the Debt Facilities contain various representations and warranties and restrictive covenants that, among other things, restrict Lands’ End, Inc.’s and its subsidiaries’ ability to incur indebtedness (including guarantees), grant liens, make investments, make dividends or distributions with respect to capital stock, make prepayments on other indebtedness, engage in mergers or change the nature of their business.

The Current Term Loan Facility contains financial covenants, including a quarterly maximum total leverage ratio test and a monthly minimum liquidity test.

40

Under the ABL Facility, if excess availability falls below the greater of 10% of the Loan Cap amount or $15.0 million, the Company will be required to comply with a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.0 to 1.0.

The Debt Facilities contain certain affirmative covenants, including reporting requirements such as delivery of financial statements, certificates and notices of certain events, maintaining insurance and providing additional guarantees and collateral in certain circumstances.

As of January 31, 2025, we were in compliance with our financial covenants in the Debt Facilities.

Events of Default

The Debt Facilities include customary events of default including non-payment of principal, interest or fees, violation of covenants, inaccuracy of representations or warranties, cross defaults related to certain other material indebtedness, bankruptcy and insolvency events, invalidity or impairment of guarantees or security interests, material judgments and change of control.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Operating activities generated net cash of $53.1 million and $130.6 million in Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023, respectively. In Fiscal 2024, net cash generated by operating activities decreased $77.5 million compared to Fiscal 2023 due to changes in working capital, primarily the reduction of cash used for inventories during Fiscal 2023.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $35.0 million and $34.9 million during Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023, respectively. Cash used in investing activities for both years was primarily used for investments to update our digital information technology infrastructure.

For Fiscal 2025, we plan to invest approximately $30.0 million in capital expenditures for strategic investments and infrastructure, primarily in technology and general corporate needs.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $26.6 million and $110.1 million during Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023, respectively. The decrease in net cash used in financing activities is primarily due to lower inventory levels.

Contractual Obligations and Off-Balance-Sheet Arrangements

We have no material off-balance-sheet arrangements other than the guarantees and contractual obligations that are discussed below.

Information concerning our obligations and commitments to make future payments under contracts such as lease agreements and other contingent commitments, as of January 31, 2025, is aggregated in the following table:

Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk

The $275.0 million committed revolving ABL Facility includes a $70.0 million sublimit for letters of credit and has a maturity date of July 29, 2026. The ABL Facility is available for working capital and other general corporate liquidity needs. There was no balance outstanding as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024. The balance of outstanding letters of credit was $10.8 million and $9.1 million as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, respectively.

Application of Critical Accounting Estimates

Our Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect amounts reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. While our estimates and assumptions are based on our knowledge of current events and actions we may undertake in the future, actual results may ultimately differ from our estimates and assumptions. Our estimation processes contain uncertainties because they require management to make assumptions and apply judgment to make these estimates. Should actual results be different than our estimates, we could be exposed to gains or losses from differences that may be material.

Inventory Valuation

Our inventories consist of merchandise purchased for resale and are recorded at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The nature of our business requires that we make a significant amount of our merchandising decisions and corresponding inventory purchase commitments with vendors several months in advance of the time in which a particular merchandise item is intended to be included in the merchandise offerings. These decisions and commitments are based upon, among other possible considerations, historical sales with identical or similar merchandise, our understanding of then-prevailing trends and influences, and an assessment of likely economic conditions and various competitive factors.

For financial reporting and tax purposes, our United States inventory, primarily merchandise held for sale, is stated at last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) cost, which is adjusted to the lower of cost or market. We account for our non-United States inventory on the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method. The United States inventory accounted for using the LIFO method as of percentage of the total inventory was 93% at January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024.

We continually make assessments as to whether the carrying cost of inventory exceeds its market value and, if so, by what dollar amount. Excess inventories may be disposed of through our normal course of business. Based on historical results experienced through various methods of disposition, we will write down the carrying value of inventories that are not expected to be sold at or above cost. The excess and obsolete reserve balances were $11.7 million and $18.1 million as of January 31, 2025, and February 2, 2024, respectively. The decrease in the excess and obsolete reserve balance is primarily due to reduction in kids and footwear inventory in conjunction with our licensing arrangements. For the inventory marked down to net realizable value, a one percentage point increase in our assumed recovery rates at January 31, 2025, would have had an immaterial impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Goodwill and Indefinite-lived Intangible Asset Impairment Assessments

Goodwill and the indefinite-lived trade name intangible asset are tested separately for impairment on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Impairment assessments contain multiple uncertainties because the calculation requires management to make assumptions and to apply judgment to estimate future cash flows and asset fair values. If actual results fall short of our estimates and assumptions used in estimating future cash flows and asset fair values, we may incur future impairment charges that could be material.

42

Goodwill impairment assessments

In Fiscal 2023, in connection with the preparation of the financial statements for the quarter ended October 27, 2023, we considered the decline in our stock price and market capitalization, as well as the then current market and macroeconomic conditions, to be a triggering event for the U.S. eCommerce and Outfitters reporting units and therefore completed an interim test for impairment of goodwill for these reporting units as of October 27, 2023. We tested goodwill for impairment using a one-step quantitative test. The quantitative test compared the reporting unit’s fair value to its carrying value. An impairment was recorded for any excess carrying value above the reporting unit’s fair value, not to exceed the amount of goodwill. We estimated fair value of its reporting units using a discounted cash flow model, commonly referred to as the income approach. The income approach used a reporting unit’s projection of estimated operating results and cash flows that was discounted using a weighted-average cost of capital that reflected then current market conditions appropriate to our reporting unit. The discounted cash flow model used management’s best estimates of economic and market conditions over the projected period using the best information available, including growth rates in revenues, costs and estimates of future expected changes in operating margins and cash expenditures. Other significant estimates and assumptions included terminal value growth rates, weighted average cost of capital and changes in future working capital requirements.

The testing resulted in goodwill impairment of the remaining $70.4 million and $36.3 million of goodwill allocated to our U.S. eCommerce and Outfitters reporting units, respectively.

Indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment assessments

Our indefinite-lived intangible asset is the Lands’ End trade name. We review the trade name for impairment on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. The fair value of the trade name indefinite-lived intangible asset is estimated using the relief from royalty method. The relief from royalty method is based on the assumption that, in lieu of ownership, a firm would be willing to pay a royalty in order to exploit the related benefits of this asset class. The relief from royalty method involves two steps: (1) estimation of reasonable royalty rates for the assets and (2) the application of these royalty rates to a forecasted net revenue stream and discounting the resulting cash flows to determine a present value. We multiplied the selected royalty rate by the forecasted net revenue stream to calculate the cost savings (relief from royalty payment) associated with the asset. The cash flows are then discounted to present value using the selected discount rate and compared to the carrying value of the asset.

In Fiscal 2024, Fiscal 2023 and Fiscal 2022, we tested the indefinite-lived intangible asset for impairment. In Fiscal 2024, the fair value was substantially in excess of the carrying value. In Fiscal 2023 and Fiscal 2022, fair value exceeded the carrying value by less than 15%. As such, no trade name impairment charges were recorded in any of the periods presented.

Revenue Recognition

While revenue recognition for us does not involve significant judgment, it represents an important accounting policy. For sales shipped from our distribution centers, we recognize revenue and the related cost of goods sold at the time the products are received by the customers. For sales transacted at stores, revenue is recognized when the customer receives and pays for the merchandise at the register.

We record an allowance for estimated returns based on our historical return patterns and various other assumptions that management believes to be reasonable. We do not believe there is a reasonable likelihood that there will be a material change in the future estimates or assumptions we use to calculate our sales return allowance. A one percentage point increase in our assumed returns rate at January 31, 2025 would have an immaterial impact on our

43

Consolidated Financial Statements. We have not made any material changes in the accounting methodology used to estimate future sales returns in the past three fiscal years.

Provision for Income Taxes

We record a valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of such deferred tax assets will not be realized. In determining the need for a valuation allowance, management is required to make assumptions and to apply judgment, including forecasting future income, taxable income and the mix of income or losses in the jurisdictions in which we operate. Our effective tax rate in a given financial statement period may also be materially impacted by changes in the mix and level of income or losses, changes in the expected outcome of audits, or changes in the deferred tax valuation allowance.

At any point in time, many tax years are subject to or in the process of being audited by various taxing authorities. To the extent our estimates of settlements change, or the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts recorded, such differences will impact the income tax provision in the period in which such determinations are made. Our income tax expense includes changes in our estimated liability for exposures associated with our various tax filing positions. Determining the income tax expense for these potential assessments requires management to make assumptions that are subject to factors such as proposed assessments by tax authorities, changes in facts and circumstances, issuance of new regulations, and resolution of tax audits. We performed an evaluation over our deferred tax assets and determined that a valuation allowance is considered necessary. See Note 11, Income Taxes, for further details on the valuation allowance.

We believe the judgments and estimates discussed above are reasonable. However, if actual results fall short of our estimates or assumptions, we may be exposed to losses or gains that could be material.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

This document contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements reflect our current views with respect to, among other things, future events and performance. These statements may discuss, among other things, our net sales, gross merchandise value (GMV), gross margin, operating expenses, operating income, net income, adjusted net income, Adjusted EBITDA, cash flow, financial condition, financings, impairments, expenditures, growth, strategies, plans, achievements, dividends, capital structure, organizational structure, future store openings, market opportunities and general market and industry conditions. We generally identify forward-looking statements by words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “project,” “plan,” “predict,” “believe,” “seek,” “continue,” “outlook,” “may,” “might,” “will,” “should,” “can have,” “likely,” “targeting” or the negative version of these words or comparable words. Forward-looking statements are based on beliefs and assumptions made by management using currently available information. These statements are only predictions and are not guarantees of future performance, actions or events. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties. If one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or if management’s underlying beliefs and assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by a forward-looking statement. These risks and uncertainties include those set forth under Item 1A, Risk Factors, in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made. We expressly disclaim any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable securities laws and regulations.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

The Company’s international subsidiaries operate with functional currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Since the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements are presented in U.S. dollars, the Company must translate all components of these financial statements from the functional currencies into U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect during or at the end of the reporting period. Net revenue generated from the International distribution channel represented 8% of our total net revenue in Fiscal 2024. The fluctuation in the value of the U.S. dollar against other currencies affects the reported amounts of net revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities. Assuming a 10% change in foreign currency exchange rates, Fiscal 2024 net revenue would have increased or decreased by approximately $10.3 million. Translation gains or losses, which are recorded in other comprehensive income or loss, result from translation of the assets and liabilities of our international subsidiaries into U.S. dollars. Foreign currency translation losses, net, for Fiscal 2024 totaled approximately $0.4 million related to our international subsidiaries in United Kingdom, Germany and Japan. Additionally, the Company has foreign currency denominated intercompany receivables and payables that when settled result in a transaction gain or loss. A 10% change in foreign currency exchanges rates would not result in a significant transaction gain or loss in earnings. The Company does not utilize financial instruments for trading purposes or hedging and have not used any derivative financial instruments to limit foreign currency exchange rate exposures. The Company does not consider our foreign earnings to be permanently reinvested.

As of January 31, 2025, the Company had $8.7 million of cash and cash equivalents denominated in foreign currency, principally in British pound sterling, euro and Hong Kong dollar.

Interest Rate Risk

The Company is subject to interest rate risk with the Current Term Loan Facility and the ABL Facility, as both require the Company to pay interest on outstanding borrowings at variable rates. Each one percentage point change in interest rates (above the 2% SOFR floor) associated with the Current Term Loan Facility would result in a $2.5 million change in our annual cash interest expenses. Assuming our ABL Facility was fully drawn to a principal amount equal to $275.0 million, each one percentage point change in interest rates would result in a $2.8 million change in our annual cash interest expense.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the stockholders and the Board of Directors of Lands’ End, Inc.

Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Lands’ End, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive operations, cash flows, and changes in stockholders’ equity, for each of the three fiscal years in the period ended January 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). We also have audited the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended January 31, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO.

Basis for Opinions

The Company’s management is responsible for these financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting 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 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 financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.

Our audits of the financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures to respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the 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 financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

A company’s 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. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally

47

accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the 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.

Critical Audit Matter

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the 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.

Indefinite-lived Intangible Asset – Refer to Notes 2 and 10 to the financial statements

Critical Audit Matter Description

The Company has an indefinite-lived intangible asset that is the Lands’ End trade name. As of January 31, 2025, the carrying value of the trade name is $257.0 million. The indefinite-lived trade name intangible asset is tested for impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. The fair value of the trade name indefinite-lived intangible asset is estimated using the relief-from-royalty valuation method. The relief from royalty valuation method is based on the assumption that, in lieu of ownership, a firm would be willing to pay a royalty in order to exploit the related benefits of this asset class. The relief from royalty method involves two steps: (1) estimation of reasonable royalty rates for the assets and (2) the application of these royalty rates to a forecasted net revenue stream and discounting the resulting cash flows to determine a present value. If actual results fall short of the Company's estimates and assumptions used in estimating future cash flows and the asset fair values, the Company may be exposed to losses that could be material.

We identified the indefinite-lived intangible asset as a critical audit matter because of the significant judgments made by management to estimate the fair value of the trade name. This required a high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort, including the need to involve our fair value specialists, when performing audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of management’s estimates and assumptions related to selection of the discount rate and forecasts of future revenue.

How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit

Our audit procedures related to the projected future net revenue, and the selection of the discount rate for the trade name included the following, among others:

•We tested the operating effectiveness of controls over management’s evaluation of the impairment evaluation of the indefinite-lived intangible asset, including those over the forecast of future revenues and the selection of the discount rate.

•We evaluated the reasonableness of management’s forecast of future revenues, by comparing to (1) current and historical performance, (2) external market and industry data, and (3) forecasted information included in Company press releases and internal communications to management and the Board of Directors.

•We evaluated the impact of changes in management’s forecasts from the annual measurement date to January 31, 2025.

48

•With the assistance of our fair value specialists, we evaluated management’s judgments as it relates to the selection of the discount rate, assessed the appropriateness of the Company’s selected valuation methodology, and tested the underlying source information and the mathematical accuracy of the calculations by developing a range of independent estimates and comparing those to the rate selected by management.

Basis of Presentation

The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Lands’ End, Inc. and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. In the opinion of management, all material adjustments of a normal and recurring nature necessary for a fair presentation of the results have been reflected for the periods presented. Dollar amounts are reported in thousands, except per share data, unless otherwise noted.

Macroeconomic Challenges

Macroeconomic issues which impact consumer discretionary spending, such as realized inflation-based price increases and high interest rates have continued to have an impact on the Company’s business. Apparel purchases historically have been influenced by domestic and global economic conditions, which may negatively impact customer demand and may require higher levels of promotion in order to attract and retain customers. Additionally, the variable interest rates associated with the Company’s Debt Facilities are negatively affected by higher interest rate environments. Macroeconomic challenges may lead to increased cost of raw materials, packaging materials, labor, energy, fuel, debt and other inputs necessary for the production and distribution of the Company’s products. Moreover, uncertainty with respect to trade policy and tariffs, including increased tariffs applicable to countries where the Company’s vendors manufacture Lands’ End product, may result in an increase in the cost of the Company’s products.

Restructuring

During Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023, the Company reduced approximately 10% of its corporate office positions and incurred restructuring charges, primarily severance and benefit and other related costs. The reductions in the corporate office positions were made to better align with the evolving needs of the business and to invest in key growth areas.

The following table summarizes the restructuring costs recognized in Other operating expense, net in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023:

(in thousands)	Fiscal 2024		Fiscal 2023
Employee severance and benefit costs	$	4,291	$	5,088
Other costs		1,267		2,217
Total restructuring	$	5,558	$	7,305

Included in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets are approximately $2.0 million of the employee severance and benefit costs as of January 31, 2025 and approximately $2.9 million of the employee severance and benefit costs and $1.1 million of the other related costs as of February 2, 2024 yet to be paid.

56

Lands’ End Japan Closure

During Fiscal 2022, the Board of Directors approved a plan to wind down and cease operations of Lands’ End Japan KK. Lands’ End Japan KK represents the Japan eCommerce operating segment. The final liquidation occurred in First Quarter 2024. The Company incurred no closing costs in Fiscal 2024 and approximately $0.3 million and $3.0 million during Fiscal 2023 and Fiscal 2022, respectively, recorded in Other operating expense, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. See Note 8, Lands’ End Japan Closure.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Fiscal Year

The Company’s fiscal year end is on the Friday preceding the Saturday closest to January 31 each year. The fiscal periods in this report are presented as follows, unless the context otherwise requires:

Fiscal Year	Ended	Weeks
2024	January 31, 2025	52
2023	February 2, 2024	53
2022	January 27, 2023	52

Seasonality

The Company’s operations have historically been seasonal, with a disproportionate amount of net revenue occurring in the fourth fiscal quarter, reflecting increased customer demand during the year-end holiday selling season. The impact of seasonality on results of operations is more pronounced since the level of certain fixed costs, such as occupancy and overhead expenses, do not vary with sales. The Company’s results of operations also may fluctuate based upon such factors as the timing of certain holiday season dates and promotions, the amount of net revenue contributed by new and existing stores, the timing and level of markdowns, competitive factors, weather and general economic conditions.

Working capital requirements typically increase during the second and third quarters of the fiscal year as inventory builds to support peak selling periods and, accordingly, typically decrease during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year as inventory is sold. Cash provided by operating activities is typically higher in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year due to reduced working capital requirements during that period.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reportable amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements include timing of revenue recognition, estimated merchandise returns, inventory valuation, impairment assessments for goodwill, indefinite-lived intangible assets and long-lived assets and income taxes. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management, which could have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of highly liquid temporary instruments purchased with original maturities of three months or less. It also includes deposits in-transit from banks for payments related to third-party credit card and debit card transactions. The Company maintains a portion of its cash in Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insured bank deposit accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. To date, the Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. The Company does not believe, based on the size and strength of the banking institutions used, it is exposed to any significant credit risks in cash.

57

Restricted cash

The Company classifies cash balances pledged as collateral as Restricted cash on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The Company provides an allowance for credit losses based on historical loss experience, collection experience, delinquency trends, economic conditions and specific identification. The Accounts receivable balance on the Consolidated Balance Sheets is presented net of the Company’s allowance for credit losses and is comprised of various customer-related accounts receivable.

Changes in the balance of the allowance for credit losses are as follows:

(in thousands)	Fiscal 2024			Fiscal 2023
Beginning balance	$	650		$	728
Provision		177			89
Write-offs		(356	)		(167	)
Ending balance	$	471		$	650

Inventory

Inventories primarily consist of merchandise purchased for resale. For financial reporting and tax purposes, the Company’s United States inventory, primarily merchandise held for sale, is stated at last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) cost, which is lower than net realizable value. The Company accounts for its non-United States inventory on the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method. The United States inventory accounted for using the LIFO method was 93% of total inventory as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024. If the FIFO method of accounting for inventory had been used, the effect on inventory would have been an increase of $0.5 million and $1.5 million as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, respectively.

The Company maintains a reserve for excess and obsolete inventory. The reserve is calculated based on historical experience related to liquidation and disposal of identified inventory. The excess and obsolescence reserve balances were $11.7 million and $18.1 million as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, respectively.

Deferred Catalog Costs and Marketing

Costs incurred for direct response marketing consist primarily of catalog production and mailing costs that are generally amortized within two months from the date catalogs are mailed. Unamortized marketing costs reported as prepaid assets were $10.1 million and $10.3 million as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, respectively. The Company expenses the costs of marketing for website, magazine, newspaper, radio and other general media when the marketing takes place. Marketing expenses, including catalog costs amortization, digital-related costs and other print media were $207.6 million, $200.5 million and $205.6 million for Fiscal 2024, Fiscal 2023 and Fiscal 2022, respectively. These costs are included within Selling and administrative expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Additions and substantial improvements are capitalized and include expenditures that materially extend the useful lives of existing facilities and

58

equipment. Maintenance and repairs that do not materially improve or extend the lives of the respective assets are expensed as incurred. As of the balance sheet dates, Property and equipment, net consisted of the following:

(in thousands)	Asset Lives (years)	January 31, 2025			February 2, 2024
Land	—	$	3,328		$	3,450
Buildings and improvements	15-30		102,472			101,232
Furniture, fixtures and equipment	3-10		70,199			66,373
Computer hardware and software	3-10		274,299			261,764
Leasehold improvements	3-7		11,737			12,673
Construction in progress			25,972			17,706
Gross property and equipment			488,007			463,198
Less: Accumulated depreciation			(372,389	)		(345,165	)
Total property and equipment, net		$	115,618		$	118,033

As of both January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, construction in progress relates primarily to technological investments.

Depreciation expense is recorded over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets using the straight-line method. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the associated lease term or the estimated useful life of the asset. Depreciation expense was $33.8 million, $38.5 million and $38.7 million for Fiscal 2024, Fiscal 2023 and Fiscal 2022, respectively.

Leases

The Company is a lessee under various lease agreements for its Company Operated store locations and certain international distribution and office facilities. All leases are classified as operating leases. The Company’s leases have remaining lease terms ranging from less than one year up to six years with renewal options. The lease term is defined as the noncancelable portion of the lease term plus any periods covered by an option to extend the lease, if it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised.

The determination of whether an arrangement contains a lease and the classification of a lease, if applicable, is made at lease inception. Lease commencement is the date in which the lessor provides the Company access to, and the right to control, the identified asset. At lease commencement, the Company recognizes a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability measured at the present value of the future minimum lease payments. Minimum lease payments include the fixed lease component of the agreement, as well as any variable rate payments that depend on an index, initially measured using the index at the lease commencement date. The right-of-use asset is recorded at the amount of the lease liability, increased for prepaid lease and initial direct costs paid and reduced by any lease incentives.

The Company has elected the practical expedient of not recognizing a right-of-use asset or lease liability for short-term leases, which are leases with a term of twelve months or less. Lease payments on short-term leases are expensed as incurred. The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components. The Company has elected the practical expedient to combine lease and non-lease components. The Company does not have any leases with residual value guarantees or restrictions or covenants imposed by the lease.

Due to the absence of an implicit rate in the Company’s lease agreements, the Company estimates its incremental borrowing rate at lease commencement in determining the present value of lease payments for each lease based on the lease term, lease currency and the Company’s credit spread. The yield curve selected at the lease commencement date represents one notch above the Company’s unsecured credit rating, and therefore is considered a close proxy for the incremental borrowing rate the Company would incur for secured debt.

In addition to rent payments, the lease agreements contain payments for real estate taxes, insurance, common area maintenance and utilities that are not fixed. The Company accounts for these costs as variable payments and does not include such costs as a lease component.

59

The Company’s leases are classified as operating leases, which are included in the Operating lease right-of-use asset, Lease liability – current and Lease liability – long-term on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in Selling and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. See Note 4, Leases.

Long-lived Asset Impairment Analysis

Property and equipment are subject to a review for impairment if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. In accordance with ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment (“ASC 360”) the Company reviewed the long-lived asset groups for impairment as of January 31, 2025.

During Second Quarter 2024, the Company considered management’s decision to replace the existing information technology infrastructure with an enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) software system within the next 18 to 24 months to be a triggering event. The Company determined that certain long-lived assets, primarily capitalized internal-use software projects and computer software, would no longer be utilized or have future benefit with the planned ERP platform and recognized impairment in the amount of $3.8 million during the 52 weeks ended January 31, 2025, recorded in Other operating expense, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company Operated store long-lived asset groups, including Operating right-of-use assets, are regularly reviewed for impairment indicators when the Company Operated store meets Same Store Sales status. A Company Operated store is included in U.S. Same Store Sales calculations when it has been open for at least 14 months. Impairment is assessed at the individual store level which is the lowest level of identifiable cash flows and considers the estimated undiscounted cash flows over the asset’s remaining life. If estimated undiscounted cash flows are insufficient to recover the investment, an impairment loss is recognized equal to the difference between the estimated fair value of the asset and its carrying value, net of salvage, and any costs of disposition. The fair value estimate is generally the discounted amount of estimated store-specific cash flows. During Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023, the Company recognized no impairment. In Fiscal 2022, the Company recognized impairment of $0.5 million for right-of-use assets and property and equipment of Company Operated store locations.

Goodwill and Indefinite-lived Intangible Asset Impairment Assessments

Goodwill and the indefinite-lived trade name intangible asset are tested separately for impairment on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Impairment assessments contain multiple uncertainties because the calculation requires management to make assumptions and to apply judgment to estimate future cash flows and asset fair values. If actual results fall short of the Company’s estimates and assumptions used in estimating future cash flows and asset fair values, the Company may incur future impairment charges that could be material.

Goodwill impairment assessments

In Fiscal 2023, in connection with the preparation of the financial statements for the quarter ended October 27, 2023, the Company considered the decline in the Company’s stock price and market capitalization, as well as the then current market and macroeconomic conditions, to be a triggering event for the U.S. eCommerce and Outfitters reporting units and therefore completed an interim test for impairment of goodwill for these reporting units as of October 27, 2023. The Company tested goodwill for impairment using a one-step quantitative test. The quantitative test compared the reporting unit’s fair value to its carrying value. An impairment was recorded for any excess carrying value above the reporting unit’s fair value, not to exceed the amount of goodwill. The Company estimated fair value of its reporting units using a discounted cash flow model, commonly referred to as the income approach. The income approach used a reporting unit’s projection of estimated operating results and cash flows that was discounted using a weighted-average cost of capital that reflected then current market conditions appropriate to the Company’s reporting unit. The discounted cash flow model used management’s best estimates of economic and market conditions over the projected period using the best information available, including growth rates in revenues, costs and estimates of future

60

expected changes in operating margins and cash expenditures. Other significant estimates and assumptions included terminal value growth rates, weighted average cost of capital and changes in future working capital requirements.

The testing resulted in goodwill impairment of the remaining $70.4 million and $36.3 million of goodwill allocated to the Company’s U.S. eCommerce and Outfitters reporting units, respectively.

Indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment assessments

The Company’s indefinite-lived intangible asset is the Lands’ End trade name. The Company reviews the trade name for impairment on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. The fair value of the trade name indefinite-lived intangible asset is estimated using the relief from royalty method. The relief from royalty method is based on the assumption that, in lieu of ownership, a firm would be willing to pay a royalty in order to exploit the related benefits of this asset class. The relief from royalty method involves two steps: (1) estimation of reasonable royalty rates for the assets and (2) the application of these royalty rates to a forecasted net revenue stream and discounting the resulting cash flows to determine a present value. The Company multiplied the selected royalty rate by the forecasted net revenue stream to calculate the cost savings (relief from royalty payment) associated with the asset. The cash flows are then discounted to present value using the selected discount rate and compared to the carrying value of the asset.

There was no impairment of the trade name during any period presented.

Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk

The $275.0 million ABL Facility includes a $70.0 million sublimit for letters of credit and the maturity date is July 29, 2026. The ABL Facility is available for working capital and other general corporate liquidity needs. There was no balance outstanding as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024. The balance of outstanding letters of credit was $10.9 million and $9.1 million on January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company determines the fair value of financial instruments in accordance with accounting standards pertaining to fair value measurements. Such standards define fair value and establish a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP. Under fair value measurement accounting standards, fair value is considered to be the exchange price in an orderly transaction between market participants to sell an asset or transfer a liability at the measurement date. The Company reports or discloses the fair value of financial assets and liabilities based on the fair value hierarchy prescribed by accounting standards for fair value measurements, which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels.

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist principally of accounts receivable. Total accounts receivable, net was $47.8 million and $35.3 million as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, respectively.

Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, net, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities and revolving long-term borrowings on ABL Facility are reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at cost, which approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Long-term debt, net is reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at amortized cost. The fair value of debt was determined utilizing Level 3 valuation techniques as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024. See Note 9, Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities.

Foreign Currency Translations and Transactions

The Company translates the assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries from their respective functional currencies to United States dollars at the appropriate spot rates as of the balance sheet date. Revenue and expenses of operations are translated to United States dollars using weighted average exchange rates during the year. The foreign subsidiaries use the local currency as their functional currency. The effects of foreign currency translation adjustments

61

are included as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive loss in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Changes in Stockholders’ Equity. Foreign currency translation losses, net, for Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2022 total approximately $0.6 million and $4.4 million, respectively. Foreign currency translation gains, net for Fiscal 2023 totaled approximately $1.0 million. The Company recognized a foreign exchange transaction loss of $0.4 million and $1.0 million in Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2022, respectively. The Company recognized a foreign exchange transaction gain of $1.0 million in Fiscal 2023. These are recorded in either Cost of sales (excluding depreciation and amortization) or Selling and administrative in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations based on the underlying nature of the transactions giving rise to the gain or loss.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue includes sales of merchandise and delivery revenue related to merchandise sold. Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is recognized when control of product passes to customers, which for the U.S. eCommerce, Europe eCommerce, Outfitters and Third Party distribution channels is when the merchandise is received by the customer and for the Retail distribution channel is at the time of sale in the store. The Company recognizes revenue, including shipping and handling fees billed to customers, in the amount expected to be received when control of the Company’s products transfers to customers, and is presented net of various forms of promotions, which range from contractually fixed percentage price reductions to sales returns, discounts, and other incentives that may vary in amount. Variable amounts are estimated based on an analysis of historical experience and adjusted as better estimates become available.

The Company generates royalty revenue from licensing the right to use its trademarks to third parties. The licensing agreements generally are exclusive to a product category, selling channel and/or geography, have terms in excess of one year, provide for annual guaranteed minimum royalties and, in most cases, include renewal options. In certain agreements, the licensee pays the Company a fulfillment fee for licensed product sold on the Company’s website and fulfilled from the Company’s distribution center. The trademark royalty revenue and fulfillment fee are included in Net revenue and reported in the Licensing distribution channel.

In exchange for providing these rights, the license agreements require the licensees to pay the Company a trademark royalty based on net sales as defined in the license agreements. The Company recognizes sales-based royalty revenue at the later of (i) when the related sales of the licensed product occur, or (ii) when the performance obligation has been satisfied, when the Company expects the annual guaranteed minimums will be met, where such provisions exist. If a sales-based royalty is not ultimately expected to exceed a contractually guaranteed minimum royalty amount, the minimum is recognized straight-line as revenue over the contractual period, if all other criteria of revenue recognition have been met. In certain licensing agreements, the Company agreed to perform transitional activities, such as marketing, for the licensed products. The Company receives reimbursement for such services at cost. The amount of these reimbursements, which are recorded as a reduction of Selling and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, for Fiscal 2024 was $9.3 million.

The Company excludes from revenue, taxes assessed by governmental authorities, including value-added and other sales-related taxes, that are imposed on and concurrent with revenue-producing activities.

Contract Liabilities

Contract liabilities consist of payments received in advance of the transfer of control to the customer. As products are delivered and control transfers, the Company recognizes the deferred revenue in Net revenue in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The following table summarizes the deferred revenue associated with payments received in advance of the transfer of control to the customer reported in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and amounts recognized through Net revenue for each period presented. The majority of deferred revenue as of January 31, 2025 is expected to be recognized in Net revenue in First Quarter 2025, as products are delivered to customers.

(in thousands)	Fiscal 2024			Fiscal 2023
Deferred revenue beginning of period	$	4,314		$	7,484
Deferred revenue recognized in period		(4,100	)		(7,270	)
Revenue deferred in period		6,370			4,100
Deferred revenue end of period	$	6,584		$	4,314

Revenue from gift cards is recognized when (i) the gift card is redeemed by the customer for merchandise, or (ii) as gift card breakage, an estimate of gift cards which will not be redeemed where the Company does not have a legal obligation to remit the value of the unredeemed gift cards to the relevant jurisdictions. Gift card breakage is recorded within Net revenue in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Prior to their redemption, gift cards are recorded as a liability, included within Accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The liability is estimated based on expected breakage that considers historical patterns of redemption. The following table provides the reconciliation of the contract liability related to gift cards:

(in thousands)	Fiscal 2024			Fiscal 2023
Balance as of beginning of period	$	35,604		$	33,029
Gift cards sold		68,555			66,392
Gift cards redeemed		(64,783	)		(60,374	)
Gift card breakage		(4,630	)		(3,443	)
Balance as of end of period	$	34,746		$	35,604

Refund Liabilities

Refund liabilities, primarily associated with product sales returns and retrospective volume rebates, represent variable consideration and are estimated and recorded as a reduction to Net revenue based on historical experience. As of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, $15.2 million and $21.6 million, respectively, of refund liabilities, primarily associated with estimated product returns, were recorded in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales are comprised principally of the costs of merchandise sold, inbound shipping and handling, duty, warehousing and distribution (including receiving, picking, packing, store delivery and value-added costs), customer shipping and handling costs and physical inventory losses. Depreciation and amortization are not included in the Company’s Cost of sales.

Selling and Administrative Expenses

Selling and administrative expenses are comprised principally of payroll and benefits costs, marketing, information technology expenses, third-party services, occupancy costs of Company Operated stores and corporate facilities, and other administrative expenses. All stock-based compensation is recorded in Selling and administrative expenses. See Note 5, Stock-Based Compensation.

63

Income Taxes

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are based on the estimated future tax effects of differences between the financial and tax basis of assets and liabilities based on currently enacted tax laws. The tax balances and income tax expense recognized are based on management’s interpretation of the tax laws of multiple jurisdictions. Income tax expense also reflects best estimates and assumptions regarding, among other things, the level of future taxable income and tax planning. Future changes in tax laws, changes in projected levels of taxable income, tax planning and adoption and implementation of new accounting standards could impact the effective tax rate and tax balances recorded.

Tax positions are recognized when they are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination. The amount recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is more likely than not to be realized upon settlement. The Company is subject to periodic audits by the United States Internal Revenue Service and other state and local taxing authorities. These audits may challenge certain of the Company’s tax positions such as the timing and amount of income and deductions and the allocation of taxable income to various tax jurisdictions. The Company evaluates its tax positions and establishes liabilities in accordance with the applicable accounting guidance on uncertainty in income taxes. These tax uncertainties are reviewed as facts and circumstances change and are adjusted accordingly. This requires significant management judgment in estimating final outcomes. Interest and penalties are classified as Income tax expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. See Note 11, Income Taxes, for further details.

The Company performed an evaluation over its deferred tax assets and determined that a valuation allowance is considered necessary for certain jurisdictions. See Note 11, Income Taxes, for further details on the valuation allowance.

Self-Insurance

The Company has a self-insured plan for health and welfare benefits and provides an accrual to cover the obligation. The accrual for the self-insured liability is based on claims filed and an estimate of claims incurred but not yet reported. The Company considers a number of factors, including historical claims information, when determining the amount of the accrual. Costs related to the administration of the plan and related claims are expensed as incurred. Total expenses, net of employee contributions, were $21.8 million, $18.9 million and $17.7 million for Fiscal 2024, Fiscal 2023 and Fiscal 2022, respectively.

The Company also has a self-insured plan for certain costs related to workers’ compensation. The Company obtains third-party insurance coverage to limit exposure to this workers’ compensation self-insured risk.

Retirement Benefit Plan

The Company has a 401(k) retirement plan, which covers most regular employees and allows them to make contributions. The Company also provides a matching contribution on a portion of the employee contributions. Total expenses incurred under this plan were $3.7 million for Fiscal 2024 and $3.9 million for Fiscal 2023 and Fiscal 2022.

64

Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Other comprehensive income (loss) encompasses all changes in equity other than those arising from transactions with stockholders and is comprised solely of foreign currency translation adjustments. The Company’s foreign subsidiaries use their local currency as their functional currency. Functional currency assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. Dollars using exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, and revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates during the period. Resulting translation gains and losses are reported in other comprehensive income (loss), until the substantial liquidation of a subsidiary, at which time accumulated transactions gains or losses are reclassified into net income. During Fiscal 2023, the Company recognized a net gain of $0.4 million of cumulative foreign currency translation adjustments related to the substantial liquidation of Lands’ End Japan. See Note 8, Lands’ End Japan Closure.

(in thousands)	Fiscal 2024			Fiscal 2023			Fiscal 2022
Beginning balance: Accumulated other comprehensive loss (net of tax of $4,271, $4,525, and $3,361, respectively)	$	(16,069	)	$	(17,022	)	$	(12,642	)

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation expense for restricted stock units is comprised of both Deferred Awards and Performance Awards. Deferred awards only require each recipient to complete a service period for the awards to be earned. The fair value of Deferred Awards is based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date. Performance awards have, in addition to a service agreement, financial performance criteria or stock performance criteria that must be achieved for the awards to be earned. The Performance Awards, granted in Fiscal 2023 are also subject to a relative total shareholder return (TSR) modifier. The fair value of Performance Awards granted prior to Fiscal 2023, as well as the portion of the Fiscal 2024 Performance Awards with financial performance criteria, are based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date. The fair value for both the Performance Awards granted in Fiscal 2024 with stock performance criteria and the Performance Awards granted in Fiscal 2023 with a relative TSR modifier are based on the Monte Carlo simulation model. Option Awards provide the recipient with the option to purchase a set number of shares at a stated exercise price over the term of the contract, which is ten years for all Option Awards currently outstanding. Options are granted with a strike price equal to the stock price on the date of grant and vest over the requisite service period of the award.

The Company recognizes stock-based compensation cost net of estimated forfeitures and revises the estimated forfeitures in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from the estimates. The Company estimates the forfeiture rate based on historical data as well as expected future behavior. Stock-based compensation is recorded in Selling and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations over the period in which the employee is required to provide service in exchange for the Deferred Awards and Option awards and over the applicable performance period for Performance Awards.

Earnings (Loss) per Share

The numerator for both basic and diluted EPS is net income (loss) attributable to the Company. The denominator for basic EPS is based upon the number of weighted average shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding

65

during the reporting periods. The denominator for diluted EPS is based upon the number of weighted average shares of the Company’s common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding during the reporting periods using the treasury stock method in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share.

The following table summarizes the components of basic and diluted EPS:

(in thousands)	Fiscal 2024		Fiscal 2023			Fiscal 2022
Net income (loss)	$	6,233	$	(130,684	)	$	(12,530	)
Basic weighted average shares outstanding		31,213		31,970			33,108
Dilutive impact of stock awards		451		—			—
Diluted weighted average shares outstanding		31,664		31,970			33,108
Earnings (loss) per share
Basic	$	0.20	$	(4.09	)	$	(0.38	)
Diluted	$	0.20	$	(4.09	)	$	(0.38	)
Anti-dilutive shares excluded from diluted earnings (loss) per common share calculation		285		1,021			1,186

Stock awards are considered anti-dilutive based on the application of the treasury stock method or in the event of a net loss.

Repurchases of Common Stock

Shares of the Company’s common stock may be repurchased by the Company through open market transactions. The par value of the shares retired was charged against Common stock and the remaining purchase price, including any broker commissions and excise taxes paid, was either (i) allocated between Additional paid-in capital and Retained earnings, or (ii) charged directly against Additional paid-in capital. To the extent the shares are repurchased at a price less than that of initial issuance, or to the extent the Company does not have sufficient reserves in Retained earnings at the time of repurchase, the excess of the purchase price over par value is accounted for entirely as a deduction from Additional paid-in capital. The Company retired all shares that were purchased through the 2024 Share Repurchase Program and the 2022 Share Repurchase Program. See Note 6, Stockholders’ Equity.

NOTE 3. DEBT

ABL Facility

The Company’s $275.0 million committed revolving ABL Facility includes a $70.0 million sublimit for letters of credit and is available for working capital and other general corporate liquidity needs and matures on July 29, 2026. The amount available to borrow is the lesser of (1) the Aggregate Commitments of $275.0 million (“ABL Facility Limit”) or (2) the Borrowing Base or Loan Cap which is calculated from Eligible Inventory, Trade Receivables and Credit Card Receivables, all foregoing capitalized terms not defined herein are as defined in the ABL Facility.

The following table summarizes the Company’s ABL Facility borrowing availability:

	January 31, 2025		February 2, 2024
(in thousands)	Amount		Amount
ABL Facility limit	$	275,000	$	275,000
Borrowing Base		140,202		176,311
Outstanding borrowings		—		—
Outstanding letters of credit		10,888		9,070
ABL Facility utilization at end of period		10,888		9,070
ABL Facility borrowing availability	$	129,314	$	167,241

Effective with the Fourth Amendment to the ABL Facility executed May 12, 2023, the benchmark interest rate was changed from LIBOR to SOFR plus an adjustment of 0.10% for all loans (“ABL Adjusted SOFR”). Loan interest rates are selected at the borrower’s election, is either (1) ABL Adjusted SOFR, or (2) a base rate which is the greater of (a) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (b) the one-month ABL Adjusted SOFR rate plus 1.00%, or (c) the Wells Fargo “prime rate”. The borrowing margin for ABL Adjusted SOFR loans is (i) less than $95.0 million, 1.25%, (ii) equal to or greater than $95.0 million but less than $180.0 million, 1.50%, and (iii) greater than or equal to $180.0 million, 1.75%. For base rate loans, the borrowing margin is (i) less than $95.0 million, 0.50%, (ii) equal to or greater

67

than $95.0 million but less than $180.0 million, 0.75%, and (iii) greater than or equal to $180.0 million, 1.00% (“Applicable Borrowing Margin”). The Applicable Borrowing Margin for all loans is based upon the average daily total loans outstanding for the previous quarter. The Fourth Amendment had no material interest rate impact.

The ABL Facility fees include (i) commitment fees of 0.25% based upon the average daily unused commitment (aggregate commitment less loans and letter of credit outstanding) under the ABL Facility for the preceding fiscal quarter, (ii) customary letter of credit fees and (iii) customary annual agent fees. As of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, the Company had no borrowings outstanding under the ABL Facility.

Long-Term Debt

On December 29, 2023, the Company entered into the Current Term Loan Facility which provides borrowings of $260.0 million, the proceeds of which were used to repay all of the indebtedness under the Former Term Loan Facility and to pay fees and expenses in connection with the financing. Origination costs, including a 3% original issue discount of $7.8 million and debt origination fees of $3.8 million, were incurred in connection with entering into the Current Term Loan Facility. The original issue discount and the debt origination fees are presented as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the Current Term Loan Facility and Former Term Loan Facility and are amortized over the term of the loan to Interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Current Term Loan Facility will mature on December 29, 2028, and amortizes at a rate equal to 1.25% per quarter. Depending upon the Company’s Total Leverage Ratio, as defined in the Current Term Loan Facility, mandatory prepayments in an amount equal to a percentage of the Company’s excess cash flows in each fiscal year, ranging from 0% to 75% are required. The Current Term Loan Facility also has typical prepayment requirements for the proceeds of certain asset sales, casualty events and extraordinary receipts. Voluntary prepayment and certain mandatory prepayments made (i) between December 30, 2024 and December 29, 2025 would result in a prepayment premium equal to 2% of the principal amount of the loan prepaid, (ii) between December 30, 2025 and December 29, 2026, would result in a prepayment premium equal to 1% of the principal amount of the loan prepaid, (iii) between December 30, 2026 and December 29, 2027, would result in a prepayment premium equal to 0.5% of the principal amount of the loan prepaid and (iv) thereafter no prepayment premium is due.

As a result of the Former Term Loan Facility repayment before the scheduled maturity date, the transaction was subject to a 1% prepayment premium of $2.3 million. Additionally, the Company recorded $4.4 million for the write off of unamortized original issue discount and debt issuance costs of the Former Term Loan Facility. These charges resulted in a loss on extinguishment of debt of $6.7 million in Fiscal 2023.

The Company’s long-term debt consisted of the following:

	January 31, 2025					February 2, 2024
(in thousands)	Amount		Interest Rate			Amount		Interest Rate
Current Term Loan Facility	$	247,000		12.66	%		260,000		13.70	%
Less: Current portion of long-term debt		13,000					13,000
Less: Unamortized debt issuance costs		9,112					10,830
Long-term debt, net	$	224,888				$	236,170

The interest rates per annum applicable to the loans under the Current Term Loan Facility are based on a fluctuating rate of interest equal to, at the Company’s election, either (1) Term Loan Adjusted SOFR loan (subject to a 2% floor) plus an applicable margin, or (2) an alternative base rate loan plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin is based on the Company’s net leverage and will be, (i) for Term Loan Adjusted SOFR loans, 8.25% per annum if the total leverage ratio is greater than or equal to 2.75:1.00, 8.00% per annum if the total leverage ratio is less than 2.75:1.00 but greater than or equal to 2.25:1.00, and 7.75% per annum if the total leverage ratio is less than 2.25:1.00 and (ii) for base rate loans, 7.25% per annum if the total leverage ratio is greater than or equal to 2.75:1.00, 7.00% per annum if the total leverage ratio is less than 2.75:1.00 but greater than or equal to 2.25:1.00, and 6.75% per annum if

68

the total leverage ratio is less than 2.25:1.00. In each case, the net leverage is determined as of the last day of each applicable measurement period.

Effective with the First Amendment to the Former Term Loan Facility executed June 22, 2023, the interest rate benchmark changed from LIBOR to Term Loan Adjusted SOFR. The annual interest rate applicable to the loans under the Former Term Loan Facility was based on a fluctuating rate of interest measured by reference to, at the borrower’s election, either (1) a Term Loan Adjusted SOFR rate plus 9.75% or (2) an alternative base rate (which was the greater of (i) the prime rate published in the Wall Street Journal, (ii) the federal funds rate, which was to be no lower than 0.00% plus ½ of 1.00%, or (iii) the one month Term Loan Adjusted SOFR rate plus 1.00% per annum) plus 8.75%.

Both the Current Term Loan Facility and the Former Term Loan Facility contain customary agency fees.

Maturity; Amortization and Prepayments

The ABL Facility maturity date is July 29, 2026.

The Current Term Loan Facility will mature on December 29, 2028, will amortize at a rate equal to 1.25% per quarter. Depending upon the Company’s Total Leverage Ratio, as defined in the Current Term Loan Facility, mandatory prepayments in an amount equal to a percentage of the Company’s excess cash flows in each fiscal year, ranging from 0% to 75% are required. The Current Term Loan Facility also has typical prepayment requirements for the proceeds of certain asset sales, casualty events and extraordinary receipts. Voluntary prepayment and certain mandatory prepayments made (i) between December 30, 2024 and December 29, 2025 would result in a prepayment premium equal to 2% of the principal amount of the loan prepaid, (ii) between December 30, 2025 and December 29, 2026, would result in a prepayment premium equal to 1% of the principal amount of the loan prepaid, (iii) between December 30, 2026 and December 29, 2027, would result in a prepayment premium equal to 0.5% of the principal amount of the loan prepaid and (iv) thereafter no prepayment premium is due.

NOTE 5. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company expenses the fair value of all stock awards over their requisite service period, ensuring that the amount of cumulative stock-based compensation expense recognized at any date is at least equal to the portion of the grant-date fair value of the award that is vested at that date. The Company has elected to adjust stock-based compensation expense for an estimated forfeiture rate for those shares not expected to vest and to recognize stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis for awards that only have a service requirement with multiple vest dates.

The Company has granted the following types of stock awards to employees at management levels and above, each of which are granted under the Company’s stockholder approved stock plans, other than inducement grants outside of the Company’s stockholder approved stock plans in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c)(4):

i.Deferred Awards are in the form of restricted stock units and only require each recipient to complete a service period for the awards to be earned. Deferred Awards generally vest over three years. The fair value of Deferred Awards is based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized ratably over the service period and is reduced for estimated forfeitures of those awards not expected to vest due to employee turnover.

ii.Performance Awards are in the form of restricted stock units and have, in addition to a service requirement, financial performance criteria and/or stock performance criteria that must be achieved for the awards to be earned. For Performance Awards with financial performance criteria, the Target Shares earned can range from 50% to 200% (such result, the “Earned Shares”) once minimum thresholds have been reached and depend on the achievement of certain financial measures for the cumulative period comprised of three-consecutive fiscal years beginning with the fiscal year of the grant date. Performance Awards are also subject to limitations under the Company’s stockholder approved stock plans. The applicable percentage of the Target Shares, as determined by the applicable performance measure, vest after the completion of the applicable three-year performance period and upon determination of achievement of the performance measures by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Unearned Target Shares are forfeited.

The Performance Awards granted in Fiscal 2023 are also subject to a relative total shareholder return (“TSR”) modifier which is based on the Company’s total return to stockholders over the measurement period relative to a custom peer group. The Fiscal 2023 Performance Award TSR modifier can result in an adjustment of 75% to 125% of the Earned Shares, subject to an overall cap of 200% of Target Shares and a modifier limitation to 100% of Target Shares in the event TSR is negative.

For the Performance Awards granted in Fiscal 2024 with stock performance criteria, the Target Shares earned can range from 0% to 100% based on the Company’s highest average per share common stock closing price, measured over any 20 consecutive trading-day period during the three-consecutive fiscal years beginning with the fiscal year of the grant date.

71

The grant date fair value of the Performance Awards granted prior to Fiscal 2023, as well as the Fiscal 2024 Performance Awards with financial performance criteria, are based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date.

The grant date fair value for both the Performance Awards granted in Fiscal 2024 with stock performance criteria and the Performance Awards granted in Fiscal 2023 with a relative TSR modifier are based on the Monte Carlo simulation model.

Stock-based compensation expense, including awards with market conditions, is recognized ratably over the related service period, reduced for estimated forfeitures of those awards not expected to vest due to employee turnover and adjusted based on the Company’s estimate of the percentage of the aggregate Target Shares expected to be earned. The Company accrues for Performance Awards on a 100% payout unless it becomes probable that the outcome will be significantly different, or the performance can be accurately measured.

iii.Option Awards provide the recipient with the option to purchase a set number of shares at a stated exercise price over the term of the contract, which is ten years for all Option Awards currently outstanding. Options are granted with a strike price equal to the stock price on the date of grant and vest over the requisite service period of the award. The fair value of each Option Award is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

The following table provides a summary of the Company’s stock-based compensation expense, which is included in Selling and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations:

(in thousands)	Fiscal 2024		Fiscal 2023			Fiscal 2022
Deferred awards	$	3,541	$	3,491		$	5,744

NOTE 6. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Share Repurchase Program

On June 28, 2022, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to $50.0 million of the Company’s common stock through February 2, 2024 (the “2022 Share Repurchase Program”). Under the 2022 Share Repurchase Program, the Company could repurchase its common stock through open market purchases, in privately negotiated transactions, or by other means in accordance with federal securities laws, including Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act. The amount and timing of purchases were determined by the Company’s management depending upon market conditions and other factors and at times were made pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan. The 2022 Share Repurchase Program expired on February 2, 2024.

On March 15, 2024, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to $25.0 million of the Company’s common stock through March 31, 2026 (the “2024 Share Repurchase Program”). Under the 2024 Share Repurchase Program, the Company may repurchase its common stock through open market purchases, in privately negotiated transactions, or by other means in accordance with federal securities laws, including Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act. The amount and timing of purchases will be determined by the Company’s management depending upon market conditions and other factors and may be made pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan. The 2024 Share Repurchase Program may be suspended or discontinued at any time. As of January 31, 2025, additional purchases of up to $13.5 million could be made under the 2024 Share Repurchase Program. All repurchases are subject to compliance with the Current Term Loan Facility which imposes a per fiscal year limitation on share repurchases.

The following table summarizes the Company’s share repurchases during Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023:

(in thousands except per share amounts)	January 31, 2025		February 2, 2024
Number of shares repurchased		774		1,487
Total cost	$	11,501	$	11,872
Average per share cost	$	14.85	$	7.98

The Company retired all shares that were repurchased through the 2024 Share Repurchase Program and the 2022 Share Repurchase Program during Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023. In accordance with FASB ASC 505—Equity, the par value of the shares retired was charged against Common stock and the remaining purchase price, including any broker commissions and excise taxes paid, was either (i) allocated between Additional paid-in capital and Retained earnings, or (ii) charged directly against Additional paid-in capital. To the extent the shares are repurchased at a price less than that of initial issuance, or to the extent the Company does not have sufficient reserves in Retained earnings at the time of repurchase, the excess of the purchase price over par value is accounted for entirely as a deduction from Additional paid-in capital.

NOTE 8. LANDS’ END JAPAN CLOSURE

In July 2022, the Board of Directors approved a plan to cease operations of Lands’ End Japan KK, a subsidiary of Lands’ End, Inc. (“Lands’ End Japan”) by the end of Fiscal 2022. Lands’ End Japan comprises the Japan eCommerce operating segment. The closing and subsequent disposal of the assets does not represent a strategic shift with a major effect on the consolidated financial condition. Accordingly, the closing of Lands’ End Japan was not presented in the Consolidated Financial Statements as discontinued operations.

In August 2022, the Company notified all employees of the closure and commenced closing activities. Liquidation sales commenced in the month of September 2022 through the end of Fiscal 2022. The dissolution of Lands’ End Japan was authorized and approved on January 31, 2023. The Company recorded closing costs for employee severance and benefit costs, early termination and restoration costs of lease facilities and contract cancellation and other costs. The final liquidation occurred in First Quarter 2024.

There were no closing costs of Lands’ End Japan recognized in Fiscal 2024. Closing costs of Lands’ End Japan recognized in Other operating expense, net in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for Fiscal 2023 was $0.3 million.

NOTE 9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS OF FINANCIAL ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash is reflected on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value based on Level 1 inputs. Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash amounts are valued based upon statements received from financial institutions. The fair value of restricted cash was $2.6 million and $2.0 million as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, respectively.

Carrying amounts and fair values of long-term debt, including current portion, in the Consolidated Balance Sheets are as follows:

	January 31, 2025				February 2, 2024
(in thousands)	Carrying Amount		Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Fair Value
Long-term debt, including current portion	$	247,000	$	251,690	$	260,000	$	258,139

The Company’s valuation of long-term debt, including current portion, at fair value is considered a Level 3 instrument under the fair value hierarchy. The Company’s valuation techniques include the Black-Derman-Toy (“BDT”) model as well as market inputs from management. The BDT modeling approach is particularly relevant given the Current Term Loan Facility’s features, including the optional redemption provision. There were no

75

nonfinancial assets or nonfinancial liabilities recognized at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024.

NOTE 10. GOODWILL AND INDEFINITE-LIVED INTANGIBLE ASSET

The Company’s intangible assets, consisting of a goodwill and trade name, were originally valued in connection with a business combination accounted for under the purchase accounting method. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired. Goodwill was fully impaired in Fiscal 2023.

The following table summarizes the activity of the Company’s Goodwill:

(in thousands)	Goodwill
Balance January 27, 2023
Gross amount	$	110.0
Accumulated impairment losses		(3.3	)
Carrying Value		106.7
Impairment loss booked in Fiscal 2023		106.7
Balance February 2, 2024
Gross amount		110.0
Accumulated impairment losses		(110.0	)
Carrying Value	$	—

The carrying value of Intangible asset, net was $257.0 million as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024.

ASC 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other, requires companies to test goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually, or more often if an event or circumstance indicates that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. In connection with the preparation of the financial statements included in the Company’s Third Quarter 2023 Form 10-Q, the Company considered the decline in the Company’s stock price and market capitalization, as well as current market and macroeconomic conditions, to be a triggering event for the U.S. eCommerce and Outfitters reporting units and therefore completed a test for impairment of goodwill for these reporting units as of October 27, 2023. The Company tested goodwill for impairment using a one-step quantitative test. The quantitative test compares the reporting unit’s fair value to its carrying value. An impairment is recorded for any excess carrying value above the reporting unit’s fair value, not to exceed the amount of goodwill. The Company estimates fair value of its reporting units using a discounted cash flow model, commonly referred to as the income approach. The income approach uses a reporting unit’s projection of estimated operating results and cash flows that is discounted using a weighted-average cost of capital that reflects current market conditions appropriate to the Company’s reporting unit. The discounted cash flow model uses management’s best estimates of economic and market conditions over the projected period using the best information available, including growth rates in revenues, costs and estimates of future expected changes in operating margins and cash expenditures. Other significant estimates and assumptions include terminal value growth rates, weighted average cost of capital and changes in future working capital requirements.

The impairment test resulted in full impairment of $70.4 million and $36.3 million of goodwill allocated to the Company’s U.S. eCommerce and Outfitters reporting units, respectively.

There was no impairment of the trade name during any period presented.

Total deferred tax liabilities		91,190			93,852
Net deferred tax liability	$	51,450		$	48,020

As of January 31, 2025, the Company had $117.5 million of federal and state net operating loss (“NOL”) and interest expense carryforwards (generating a $12.2 million deferred tax asset) available to offset future taxable income. The federal carryforwards have an indefinite life. The state NOL carryforwards generally expire between 2025 and 2044 with certain state NOLs and interest expense carryforwards generated after 2017 having indefinite lives. The Company’s foreign subsidiaries had $49.3 million of NOL carryforwards (generating a $14.1 million deferred tax asset) available to offset future taxable income. These foreign NOLs can be carried forward indefinitely, however, a valuation allowance was established since the future utilization of these NOLs is uncertain.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending gross amount of unrecognized tax benefits (“UTBs”) is as follows:

(in thousands)	Fiscal 2024			Fiscal 2023			Fiscal 2022
Gross UTBs balance at beginning of period	$	1,141		$	1,297		$	1,477
Tax positions related to the prior periods - gross    increases (decreases)		7,980			(156	)		(180	)
Settlements		(123	)		—			—
Gross UTBs balance at end of period	$	8,998		$	1,141		$	1,297

As of January 31, 2025, the Company had gross UTBs of $9.0 million. Of this amount, $0.8 million would, if recognized, impact its effective tax rate. The remaining liability relates to tax positions for which there are offsetting tax benefits, or the uncertainty was related only to timing. The Company does not expect that UTBs will fluctuate significantly in the next 12 months for tax audit settlements and the expiration of the statute of limitations for certain jurisdictions. Tax years 2021 through 2025 remain open for examination by the Internal Revenue Service as well as various state and foreign jurisdictions.

The Company classifies interest expense and penalties related to UTBs and interest income on tax overpayments as components of income tax expense. As of January 31, 2025, the total amount of interest expense and penalties

78

recognized on the balance sheet was $0.5 million ($0.4 million net of federal benefit). As of February 2, 2024, the total amount of interest and penalties recognized on the balance sheet was $0.6 million ($0.5 million net of federal benefit). The total amount of net interest expense recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations was insignificant for all periods presented. The Company files income tax returns in both the United States and various foreign jurisdictions.

NOTE 12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Proceedings

The Company is party to various claims, legal proceedings and investigations arising in the ordinary course of business. Some of these actions involve complex factual and legal issues and are subject to uncertainties. At this time, the Company is not able to either predict the outcome of these legal proceedings or reasonably estimate a potential range of loss with respect to the proceedings. While it is not feasible to predict the outcome of such pending claims, proceedings and investigations with certainty, management is of the opinion that their ultimate resolution should not have a material adverse effect on results of operations, cash flows or financial position taken as a whole.

NOTE 13. SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company identifies operating segments according to how business activities are managed and evaluated. Following internal organizational changes and realignment of distribution channel responsibilities in Fourth Quarter 2024, the Company’s operating segments consisted of: U.S. eCommerce, Europe eCommerce, Outfitters, Third Party, Licensing and Retail. Beginning Fourth Quarter 2024, the Wholesale business is included in Licensing and prior periods were recast to reflect the change in operating segments for comparability purposes. During Fiscal 2022, the Company’s operating segments included Japan eCommerce. See Note 8, Lands’ End Japan Closure.

•U.S. eCommerce offers products through the Company’s eCommerce website.

•Europe eCommerce offers products primarily to consumers located in Europe and through eCommerce international websites and third-party affiliates.

•Outfitters sells uniform and logo apparel to businesses and their employees, as well as to student households through school relationships, located primarily in the U.S.

•Third Party sells products direct to consumers through third-party marketplace websites.

•Licensing earns royalties on the use of Lands’ End trademark and any fulfillment fees for fulfillment services provided by the Company.

•Retail sells products through Company Operated stores, located in the U.S.

The internal reporting of these operating segments is based, in part, on the reporting and review process used by the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), its Chief Executive Officer. The CODM assesses segment performance based on variable profit, which is defined as net revenue minus cost of sales and variable selling expenses to evaluate segment profitability and make decisions about resource allocations. The Company’s CODM monitors actual segment variable profit results relative to operating plan and forecast to assess the performance of the business and allocate resources. The CODM does not utilize segment asset information to evaluate performance and make resource allocation decisions, and thus such disclosures are not provided.

The Company determined the U.S. eCommerce, Outfitters and Third Party operating segments share similar economic and other qualitative characteristics, and therefore the results of these operating segments are aggregated into the U.S. Digital segment. The Europe eCommerce, Licensing and Retail operating segments are not quantitatively significant to be separately reported.

79

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 2. The Company has determined its significant segment expense categories based on amounts regularly provided to the Company’s CODM to evaluate segment profitability and drive strategic decision making. The following presents U.S. Digital segment sales and expenses:

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We have established disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the officers who certify the Company’s financial reports and to other members of senior management and the Board of Directors as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Based on their evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15-d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) are effective as of January 31, 2025.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting is not intended to provide absolute assurance that a misstatement of our financial statements would be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer conducted an evaluation of the design and effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria set forth in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of January 31, 2025. Our independent registered public accounting firm has issued an audit report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, see Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Regulations under the Exchange Act require public companies including our Company, to evaluate any change in our “internal control over financial reporting” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and Rule 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act. There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fourth fiscal quarter ended January 31, 2025 that have materially impacted, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION

During the fiscal quarter ended January 31, 2025, none of the Company’s directors or executive officers adopted or terminated any contract, instruction or written plan for the purchase or sale of Company securities that was intended to satisfy the affirmative defense conditions of Rule 10b5-1(c) or any “non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement.”

•The primary work location will be in our Dodgeville, WI office. All requested business travel and lodging will be at company expense subject to Lands’ End’s applicable Travel & Entertainment Employee Expense Policy.

•Annualized base salary of $525,000 (less applicable withholdings and deductions) paid in bi-weekly payments in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practice. Any increases will be determined based on a number of factors, with performance typically being the most significant factor. You will be eligible for merit increase consideration in the 2025 merit cycle.

WHEREAS, the Company has shared with Executive certain aspects of its business acumen and know-how as well as specific confidential and proprietary information about the products, markets, processes, costs, developments, ideas, and personnel of the Company; and

c.“Competitive Business” means any corporation, partnership, association, or other person or entity (including but not limited to Executive) that is listed on Appendix A, each of which Executive acknowledges is a Competitive Business.

Executive acknowledges that the Company shall have the right to propose modifications to Appendix A periodically to include (i) emergent Competitive Businesses in the existing lines of business of the Company, and (ii) Competitive Businesses in lines of business that are new for the Company, in each case, with the prior written consent of Executive, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

d.“Code” means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

e.“Confidential Information” means information related to the Company’s business, not generally known in the trade or industry, which Executive learns or creates during the period of Executive’s Company Employment, which may include but is not limited to product specifications, manufacturing procedures, methods, equipment, compositions, technology, formulas, know-how, research and development programs, sales methods, customer lists, customer usages and requirements, personnel evaluations and compensation data, computer programs and other confidential technical or business information and data that is not otherwise in the public domain.

i.Executive fails to provide the above-referenced written notice of the Good Reason event within thirty (30) days of its occurrence;

ii.Company remedies the Good Reason event within the above-referenced sixty (60) day remediation period; or

iii.Executive fails to resign within ninety (90) days of Executive’s written notice of the Good Reason event.

This Policy applies to transactions in the Company’s securities (collectively referred to in this Policy as “Company Securities”), including the Company’s common stock, options to purchase common stock, restricted stock or any other type of securities that the Company may issue, as well as derivative securities that are not issued by the Company, such as exchange- traded put or call options or swaps relating to the Company’s securities.

IV.Individual Responsibility

You have ethical and legal obligations to maintain the confidentiality of information about the Company and to not engage in transactions in Company Securities while in possession of material nonpublic information. You are responsible for making sure that you comply with this Policy and that your Family Members and Controlled Entities, also comply with this Policy. In all cases, the responsibility for determining whether you are in possession of material nonpublic information rests with you, and any action on the part of the Company, the Compliance Officer or any other employee or director pursuant to this Policy (or otherwise) does not in any way constitute legal advice or insulate you from liability under applicable securities laws. You could also be subject to severe legal penalties and disciplinary action by the Company for any conduct prohibited by this Policy or applicable securities laws, as described below in more detail under the heading “Consequences of Violations.”

V.Administration of this Policy

The Company’s General Counsel will serve as the Compliance Officer for the purposes of this Policy, and in their absence, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, or another employee designated by the Compliance Officer will be responsible for administration of this Policy. All determinations and interpretations by the Compliance Officer will be final and not subject to further review.

VI.Statement of Policy

It is the policy of the Company that no director, officer or other employee of the Company (or any other person who this Policy or the Compliance Officer designates as subject to this Policy) who is aware of material nonpublic information relating to the Company may, directly, or indirectly through Family Members, Controlled Entities, or any other persons or entities:

EXHIBIT 19.1

A.Engage in transactions in Company Securities, except as otherwise specified in this Policy under the headings “Transactions Under Company Plans,” “Transactions Not Involving a Purchase or Sale” and “Rule 10b5-1 Plans”;

B.Recommend the purchase or sale of any Company Securities;

C.Disclose material nonpublic information to persons within the Company whose jobs do not require them to have that information or outside of the Company to other persons, including, but not limited to, family, friends, business associates, investors and expert consulting firms, unless any such disclosure is made in accordance with the Company’s policies regarding the protection or authorized external disclosure of information regarding the Company; or

D.Assist anyone engaged in the above activities.

In addition, it is the policy of the Company that no director, officer or other employee of the Company (or any other person designated as subject to this Policy) who, in the course of working for the Company, learns of material nonpublic information about a company with which the Company does business, including a customer or supplier of the Company, may trade in that company’s securities until the information becomes public or is no longer material.

There are no exceptions to this Policy, except as specifically noted in this Policy. There is no exception from this Policy for transactions that may be necessary or justifiable for independent reasons (such as the need to raise money for an emergency expenditure) or small transactions. The securities laws do not recognize any mitigating circumstances, and in any event, even the appearance of an improper transaction must be avoided to preserve the Company’s reputation for adhering to the highest standards of conduct.

VII.Definition of Material Nonpublic Information

Material Information. Information is considered “material” if a reasonable investor would consider that information significant in making a decision to buy, hold or sell securities. Any information that could be expected to affect the Company’s stock price, whether it is positive or negative, should be considered material. There is no bright-line standard for assessing materiality; rather, materiality is based on an assessment of all of the facts and circumstances, and enforcement authorities often evaluate it with the benefit of hindsight. In simple terms, material information is any type of information that could reasonably be expected to affect the price of Company securities. While it is not possible to define all categories of material information, some examples of information that ordinarily would be regarded as material are:

•Projections of future earnings or losses, or other earnings guidance;

•Changes to previously announced earnings guidance;

•A pending or proposed merger, acquisition or tender offer;

•A pending or proposed acquisition or disposition of a significant asset;

•A pending or proposed joint venture;

•A Company restructuring;

•Significant related party transactions;

•A change in dividend policy, the declaration of a stock split, or an offering of additional securities;

•Bank borrowings or other financing transactions out of the ordinary course;

•The establishment of a repurchase program for Company Securities;

•A significant change in the Company’s pricing or cost structure;

•Cybersecurity risks and incidents, including vulnerabilities;

•Major marketing changes;

•New major contracts, orders, suppliers, customers or finance sources, or the loss thereof;

•Significant changes or developments in supplies or inventory, including significant product defects or returns;

•Significant labor disputes or negotiations;

•The contents of forthcoming publications or statements by stock market analysts regarding the Company and/or its subsidiaries;

EXHIBIT 19.1

•A change in senior management;

•A change in auditors or notification that the auditor’s reports may no longer be relied upon;

•Pending or threatened significant litigation, or the resolution of such litigation;

•Impending bankruptcy or the existence of severe liquidity problems; and

•The imposition of a ban on trading in Company Securities or the securities of another company.

When Information is Considered Public. Information that has not been disclosed to the public is generally considered to be nonpublic information. To establish that information has been disclosed to the public, it may be necessary to demonstrate that the information has been widely disseminated. Information generally would be considered widely disseminated if it has been disclosed through newswire services, a broadcast on a widely-available radio or television program, publication in a widely-available newspaper, magazine or news website, or public disclosure documents filed with the SEC that are available on the SEC’s website. By contrast, information would likely not be considered widely disseminated if it is available only to the Company’s employees or if it is only available to a select group of analysts, brokers and institutional investors.

Once information is widely disseminated, it is still necessary to afford the investing public sufficient time to absorb the information. As a general rule, information should not be considered fully absorbed by the marketplace until after the second full trading day after the Company releases the information. If, for example, the Company were to make an announcement on a Tuesday morning before the commencement of trading, you should not trade in Company Securities until Thursday. Depending on the particular circumstances, the Company may determine that a longer or shorter period should apply to the release of specific material nonpublic information.

VIII.Information Concerning Other Companies

In the course of your association with the Company, you may have access to information that is material and nonpublic to other companies, including, but not limited to, customers, partners and competitors of the Company. For example, an individual may possess nonpublic information that a major prospective vendor has chosen to sell products to the Company instead of a competitor. Such material and nonpublic information is the property of the Company and trading, tipping or rendering trading advice relating to the securities of such other companies while aware of such material and nonpublic information could violate federal and state securities laws. In addition, inappropriate trading, tipping or trading advice could irretrievably damage the Company’s customer or partnership relationships. For these reasons, the Company prohibits persons from trading, tipping and rendering trading advice relating to other companies while aware of information that is material and nonpublic relating to such companies.

IX.Transactions Under Company Plans

This Policy does not apply in the case of the following transactions, except as specifically noted:

Stock Option Exercises. This Policy does not apply to the exercise of an employee stock option acquired pursuant to the Company’s equity incentive plans or to the exercise of a share withholding right pursuant to which you have elected to have the Company withhold shares subject to an option to satisfy tax withholding requirements or the exercise price for the option. This Policy does apply, however, to any sale of stock as part of a broker-assisted cashless exercise of an option or any other market sale for the purpose of generating the cash needed to pay tax withholding amounts or the exercise price of an option or otherwise.

Restricted Stock Awards. This Policy does not apply to the vesting of restricted stock or the exercise of a tax withholding right pursuant to which you elect to have the Company withhold shares of stock necessary to satisfy tax withholding obligations arising exclusively from the vesting of restricted stock. This Policy does apply, however, to any market sale of restricted stock that has vested.

X.Gifts of Company Securities

Gifts of Company Securities to or from Designated Persons are considered transactions subject to this Policy.

XI.Transactions Not Involving a Purchase or Sale

Transactions in mutual funds, most exchange traded funds, index funds or similar funds that are invested in Company Securities are not transactions subject to this Policy.

EXHIBIT 19.1

XII.Special and Prohibited Transactions

The Company has determined that there is a heightened legal risk and/or the appearance of improper or inappropriate conduct if the persons subject to this Policy engage in certain types of transactions. It therefore is the Company’s policy that any persons covered by this Policy may not engage in any of the following transactions, or should otherwise consider the Company’s preferences as described below:

Short-Term Trading. Short-term trading of Company Securities may be distracting to you and may unduly focus you on the Company’s short-term stock market performance instead of the Company’s long-term business objectives. For these reasons, it is against Company policy to engage in short-term or speculative transactions in Company Securities.

Short Sales. Short sales of Company Securities (i.e., the sale of a security that the seller does not own) may evidence an expectation on the part of the seller that the securities will decline in value and therefore have the potential to signal to the market that you lack confidence in the Company’s prospects. In addition, short sales may reduce your incentive to seek to improve the Company’s performance. For these reasons, short sales of Company Securities are prohibited. In addition, Section 16(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), prohibits officers and directors from engaging in short sales.

Publicly-Traded Options. Given the relatively short term of publicly-traded options, transactions in options may create the appearance that you are trading based on material nonpublic information and focus your attention on short-term performance at the expense of the Company’s long-term objectives. Accordingly, transactions in put options, call options or other derivative securities, on an exchange or in any other organized market, are prohibited by this Policy.

Hedging Transactions. Hedging or monetization transactions can be accomplished through a number of possible mechanisms, including through the use of financial instruments such as prepaid variable forwards, equity swaps, collars and private exchange funds. Such hedging transactions may permit you to continue to own Company Securities obtained through employee benefit plans or otherwise but without the full risks and rewards of ownership. When that occurs, you may no longer have the same objectives as the Company’s other stockholders. Therefore, you are prohibited from engaging in any such transactions.

Margin Accounts and Pledged Securities. Securities held in a margin account as collateral for a margin loan may be sold by the broker without the customer’s consent if the customer fails to meet a margin call. Similarly, securities pledged (or hypothecated) as collateral for a loan may be sold in foreclosure if the borrower defaults on the loan. Because a margin sale or foreclosure sale may occur at a time when you as the pledger are aware of material nonpublic information or otherwise are not permitted to trade in Company Securities, you are prohibited from holding Company Securities in a margin account or otherwise pledging Company Securities as collateral for a loan.

Standing and Limit Orders. Standing and limit orders (except standing and limit orders under approved Rule 10b5-1 Plans, as described below) create heightened risks for insider trading violations similar to the use of margin accounts. There is no control over the timing of purchases or sales that result from standing instructions to a broker, and as a result, the broker could execute a transaction when a director, officer or other employee is in possession of material nonpublic information. The Company therefore discourages placing standing or limit orders on Company Securities. If you determine that you must use a standing order or limit order, the order should be limited to short duration and should otherwise comply with the restrictions and procedures outlined below under the heading “Additional Procedures for Certain Designated Persons.”

XIII.Additional Procedures for Certain Designated Persons

The Company has established additional procedures to assist the Company in the administration of this Policy, to facilitate compliance with laws prohibiting insider trading while in possession of material nonpublic information, and to avoid the appearance of any impropriety. These additional procedures apply to you only if you are a member of the Company’s Board of Directors or an officer or key employee that the Compliance Officer designates from time to time (the “DesignatedPersons”).

Pre-Clearance Procedures. If you are a Designated Person, then you, your Family Members and your Controlled Entities may not engage in any transaction in Company Securities without first obtaining pre-clearance of the transaction from the Compliance Officer. You should submit a request for pre-clearance to the Compliance Officer at least two (2) business days in advance of the proposed transaction. The Compliance Officer is under no obligation to approve a transaction that you submit for pre-clearance and may determine not to permit the transaction. If you seek pre-clearance and permission to engage in the transaction is denied, then you should refrain from initiating any transaction in Company Securities and should not inform any other person of the restriction. When you make a request for pre-clearance, you should carefully consider whether you may be aware of any material nonpublic information about the Company. You should also indicate whether you have effected any non-exempt “opposite-way” transactions within the past six months and should be prepared to report the proposed transaction on an appropriate Form 4 or Form 5. You should also be prepared to comply with SEC Rule 144 and file Form 144, if

EXHIBIT 19.1

necessary, at the time of any sale.

Quarterly Trading Windows. The Designated Persons, as well as their Family Members and Controlled Entities, may only conduct transactions in Company Securities during the four quarterly “Window Periods” beginning after the second full trading day following the Company’s press release announcing its quarterly or annual financial results and ending as follows: (i) for the Window Periods occurring during the first three quarters of the Company’s fiscal year (i.e., following the press release announcing financial results for the immediately preceding fiscal year or the immediately preceding first or second quarter), the final day of the tenth fiscal week of each such quarter; or (ii) for the Window Period occurring during the fourth quarter of the Company’s fiscal year (i.e., following the press release announcing the immediately preceding third quarter financial results), the final day of the sixth fiscal week of the fourth quarter, in all cases regardless of the timing of the press release. The Window Periods will be announced from time to time by the Compliance Officer (these will be subject to change as the earnings release dates change).

Event-Specific Trading Restriction Periods. From time to time, circumstances may occur that are or may be material to the Company and, in the judgment of the Compliance Officer, all or certain of the Designated Persons should refrain from trading in Company Securities even during a Window Period. In that situation, the Compliance Officer may notify these persons that they should not trade in the Company’s Securities without disclosing the reason for the restriction. The existence of an event-specific trading restriction period will not be announced to the Company as a whole and should not be communicated to any other person.

Exceptions. The quarterly trading restrictions and event-specific trading restrictions do not apply to those transactions to which this Policy does not apply, as described above under the headings “Transactions Under Company Plans” and “Transactions Not Involving a Purchase or Sale.” Further, the requirement for pre-clearance, the quarterly trading restrictions and event-driven trading restrictions do not apply to transactions conducted pursuant to approved Rule 10b5-1 plans described below under the heading “Rule 10b5-1 Plans.”

Compliance Officer Trades. If the Compliance Officer desires to complete any trades involving Company securities, he or she must first obtain the approval of the Chief Executive Officer of the Company.

XIV.Rule 10b5-1 Plans

Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act provides a defense from insider trading liability under Rule 10b-5. To be eligible to rely on this defense, a person subject to this Policy must enter into a Rule 10b5-1 plan for transactions in Company Securities that meet certain conditions specified in the Rule (a “Rule 10b5-1 Plan”). If the plan meets the requirements of Rule 10b5-1, it provides an affirmative defense that the purchase or sale of Company Securities was not made on the basis of material nonpublic information. Under this Policy, only Designated Persons may utilize Rule 10b5-1 Plans. For a Designated Person to comply with this Policy, the Compliance Officer must approve the Rule 10b5-1 Plan (and any modification, amendment or termination of a plan) in advance. In addition, a Rule 10b5-1 Plan must be entered into in good faith at a time when the Designated Person entering into the plan is not aware of material nonpublic information. Once the plan is adopted, the Designated Person must not exercise any influence over the amount of securities to be traded, the price at which they are to be traded or the date of the trade. The plan must either specify the amount, pricing and timing of transactions in advance or delegate discretion on these matters to an independent third party.

A Designated Person submitting a Rule 10b5-1 Plan to the Compliance Officer for approval must submit it to the Compliance Officer no less than 10 days prior to adoption (or any modification or termination) of the plan. Any transactions under the Rule 10b5-1 Plan must commence at least 30 days after adoption (or any modification) of the plan, or such additional time as may be required by applicable rules and regulations (the “cooling off period”). For the Company’s Board of Directors and officers (as defined in Rule 16a–1(f)), the minimum cooling off period shall be the later of: (i) 90 days after the adoption (or any modification) of the plan; or (ii) two business days following the filing of the Company’s Form 10-Q or 10-K for the fiscal quarter in which the plan was adopted or modified, not to exceed 120 days following adoption (or modification) of the plan. If a Designated Person has received advance approval of a Rule 10b5-1 Plan and has not modified or amended the plan, then this Policy does not require further pre-approval of transactions conducted pursuant to the approved Rule 10b5-1 Plan, unless otherwise required by Rule 10b5-1. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company reserves the right from time to time to suspend, discontinue, or otherwise prohibit transactions under a Rule 10b5-1 Plan if the Compliance Officer or the Board of Directors, in its discretion, determines that such suspension, discontinuation, or other prohibition is in the best interests of the Company or fails to comply with Rule 10b5-1 as amended from time to time.

XV.Post-Termination Transactions

This Policy continues to apply to transactions in Company Securities even after termination of service to the Company. If you are in possession of material nonpublic information when your service terminates, then you may not trade in Company Securities until that information has become public or is no longer material.

EXHIBIT 19.1

XVI.Consequences of Violations

The purchase or sale of securities while aware of material nonpublic information, or the disclosure of material nonpublic information to others who then trade in the Company’s Securities, is prohibited by the federal and state laws. Insider trading violations are pursued vigorously by the SEC, U.S. Attorneys and state and foreign enforcement authorities. Punishment for insider trading violations is severe and could include significant fines and imprisonment. While the regulatory authorities concentrate their efforts on the individuals who trade, or who tip inside information to others who trade, the federal securities laws also impose potential liability on companies and other “controlling persons” if they fail to take reasonable steps to prevent insider trading by company personnel.

In addition, your failure to comply with this Policy may subject you to Company- imposed sanctions, including dismissal for cause, whether or not your failure to comply results in a violation of law. Needless to say, a violation of law, or even an SEC investigation that does not result in prosecution, can tarnish a person’s reputation and irreparably damage a career.

XVII.Company Assistance

If you have a question about this Policy or its application to any proposed transaction, you may obtain additional guidance from the Compliance Officer, who can be reached by contacting the Company’s Legal Department.

XVIII.Certification

This Policy will be delivered to all directors, officers, employees and designated outsiders, and to all new directors, officers, employees and designated outsiders at the start of their employment or relationship with the Company. Upon first receiving a copy of the Policy or any revised versions, each individual subject to the Policy must sign an acknowledgment that he or she has received a copy of the Policy and agrees to comply with the Policy’s terms.

XIX.Priority of Statutory or Regulatory Trading Restrictions

The trading prohibitions and restrictions set forth in the Policy will be superseded by any greater prohibitions or restrictions under federal or state securities laws and regulations, such as short-swing trading prohibitions or restrictions on the sale of securities subject to Rule 144 under the Securities Act. Anyone who is uncertain whether other prohibitions or restrictions apply should contact the Compliance Officer.

Auditor Opinion

Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Lands’ End, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive operations, cash flows, and changes in stockholders’ equity, for each of the three fiscal years in the period ended January 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). We also have audited the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended January 31, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO.

Cybersecurity Risk Management, Strategy, and Governance [Line Items]

Cybersecurity Risk Management Processes for Assessing, Identifying, and Managing Threats [Text Block]

ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY

We have developed and implemented a cybersecurity risk management program intended to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of our critical systems and information. Our cybersecurity risk management program includes a written data security incident response policy and a security incident response plan, which were first developed in 2017 and are periodically reviewed and updated.

We have designed and assessed our program using the National Institute of Standards and Technology Cybersecurity Framework (“NIST CSF”) as a guide to help us identify, assess, and manage cybersecurity risks relevant to our business.

Our cybersecurity risk management program is integrated into our overall enterprise risk management program, and shares common methodologies, reporting channels and governance processes that apply across the enterprise risk management program to our legal, compliance, strategic, operational, and financial risk areas.

Our cybersecurity risk management program includes:

•a written data security incident response policy and a security incident response plan that include detailed procedures for responding to cybersecurity incidents, determining severity of cybersecurity incidents and notifying appropriate internal and external parties;

•third-party and internal risk assessments designed to help identify material cybersecurity risks to our critical systems, information, products, services, and our broader enterprise information technology environment;

•a security team consisting of members of our information technology department, principally responsible for managing (1) our cybersecurity risk assessment processes, (2) our security controls, and (3) our response to cybersecurity incidents;

•periodic tabletop exercises involving the security team, the data security incident management team, and members of management, with special sessions for the Board of Directors;

•annual audit by a Payment Card Industry (“PCI”) qualified security risk assessor to validate our PCI-Data Security Standard (“PCI-DSS”) compliance;

•the use of external service providers, where appropriate, to assess, test or otherwise assist with aspects of our security controls;

•regular cybersecurity awareness training, including social engineering and phishing testing of our employees, incident response personnel, and senior management;

•deployment of external tools designed to detect and protect against spam, malware and other cybersecurity threats and train personnel; and

•third-party security event monitoring.

There can be no assurance that our cybersecurity risk management program and processes, including our policies, controls or procedures, will be adequate, fully complied with or effective in protecting our systems and information.

We have not identified risks from known cybersecurity threats, including as a result of any prior cybersecurity incidents, that have materially affected us, including our operations, business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition. We face risks from cybersecurity threats that, if realized, are reasonably likely to materially affect us, including our operations, business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition. See “Risk Factors – RISKS RELATED TO INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY, CYBERSECURITY AND DATA PRIVACY.”

Cybersecurity Governance

Our Board considers cybersecurity risk as part of its risk oversight function and has delegated to the Audit Committee oversight of data protection and cybersecurity risks as part of the Audit Committee’s oversight of the Company’s enterprise risk management framework. The Audit Committee regularly reports to the full Board regarding its activities, including those related to cybersecurity.

The Audit Committee receives regular reports from management on our cybersecurity risks, which include updates on trends and threats, the Company’s backup and restore systems, internal and external risk assessments, results of PCI and other security audits, and planned updates and upgrades. The Audit Committee also receives regular enterprise risk management updates, which include management of cybersecurity risks.

In accordance with our data security incident response plan, management is required to promptly update and discuss with the Audit Committee any material or potentially material cybersecurity incidents and provide an update to the Board upon determination that an incident is material. Management regularly updates the Audit Committee regarding incidents with lesser impact potential.

Our management team, including our Chief Financial Officer, Chief Technology Officer and General Counsel (the cybersecurity disclosure committee), is responsible for assessing material risks from cybersecurity threats and our General Counsel oversees any required reporting obligations and notifications. Our Chief Technology Officer has primary responsibility for overseeing our security incident response plan, including identification and initial assessment of threat levels and escalations.

Critical incidents are escalated to a cross functional data security incident management team for review, which then escalates potentially material incidents and threats to the cybersecurity disclosure committee for determinations of materiality and Audit Committee and Board communications. Our Chief Technology Officer has over 20 years of experience with cybersecurity management response, and multiple direct reports who have 10 or more years of experience leading technology infrastructure and security incident response. Our General Counsel has over eight years of experience leading our incident response management team.

Our Chief Technology Officer is the primary point of responsibility for cybersecurity risk management program and supervises both our internal cybersecurity personnel and our retained external cybersecurity consultants. Our management team supervises efforts to prevent, detect, mitigate, and remediate cybersecurity risks and incidents through various means, which may include briefings from internal security personnel; threat intelligence and other information obtained from governmental, public or private sources, including external consultants engaged by us; and alerts and reports produced by security tools deployed in the information technology environment.

Basis of Presentation

The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Lands’ End, Inc. and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. In the opinion of management, all material adjustments of a normal and recurring nature necessary for a fair presentation of the results have been reflected for the periods presented. Dollar amounts are reported in thousands, except per share data, unless otherwise noted.

Macroeconomic Challenges

Macroeconomic issues which impact consumer discretionary spending, such as realized inflation-based price increases and high interest rates have continued to have an impact on the Company’s business. Apparel purchases historically have been influenced by domestic and global economic conditions, which may negatively impact customer demand and may require higher levels of promotion in order to attract and retain customers. Additionally, the variable interest rates associated with the Company’s Debt Facilities are negatively affected by higher interest rate environments. Macroeconomic challenges may lead to increased cost of raw materials, packaging materials, labor, energy, fuel, debt and other inputs necessary for the production and distribution of the Company’s products. Moreover, uncertainty with respect to trade policy and tariffs, including increased tariffs applicable to countries where the Company’s vendors manufacture Lands’ End product, may result in an increase in the cost of the Company’s products.

Restructuring

During Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023, the Company reduced approximately 10% of its corporate office positions and incurred restructuring charges, primarily severance and benefit and other related costs. The reductions in the corporate office positions were made to better align with the evolving needs of the business and to invest in key growth areas.

The following table summarizes the restructuring costs recognized in Other operating expense, net in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023:

(in thousands)	Fiscal 2024		Fiscal 2023
Employee severance and benefit costs	$	4,291	$	5,088
Other costs		1,267		2,217
Total restructuring	$	5,558	$	7,305

Included in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets are approximately $2.0 million of the employee severance and benefit costs as of January 31, 2025 and approximately $2.9 million of the employee severance and benefit costs and $1.1 million of the other related costs as of February 2, 2024 yet to be paid.

Lands’ End Japan Closure

During Fiscal 2022, the Board of Directors approved a plan to wind down and cease operations of Lands’ End Japan KK. Lands’ End Japan KK represents the Japan eCommerce operating segment. The final liquidation occurred in First Quarter 2024. The Company incurred no closing costs in Fiscal 2024 and approximately $0.3 million and $3.0 million during Fiscal 2023 and Fiscal 2022, respectively, recorded in Other operating expense, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Fiscal Year

The Company’s fiscal year end is on the Friday preceding the Saturday closest to January 31 each year. The fiscal periods in this report are presented as follows, unless the context otherwise requires:

Fiscal Year	Ended	Weeks
2024	January 31, 2025	52
2023	February 2, 2024	53
2022	January 27, 2023	52

Seasonality

The Company’s operations have historically been seasonal, with a disproportionate amount of net revenue occurring in the fourth fiscal quarter, reflecting increased customer demand during the year-end holiday selling season. The impact of seasonality on results of operations is more pronounced since the level of certain fixed costs, such as occupancy and overhead expenses, do not vary with sales. The Company’s results of operations also may fluctuate based upon such factors as the timing of certain holiday season dates and promotions, the amount of net revenue contributed by new and existing stores, the timing and level of markdowns, competitive factors, weather and general economic conditions.

Working capital requirements typically increase during the second and third quarters of the fiscal year as inventory builds to support peak selling periods and, accordingly, typically decrease during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year as inventory is sold. Cash provided by operating activities is typically higher in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year due to reduced working capital requirements during that period.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reportable amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements include timing of revenue recognition, estimated merchandise returns, inventory valuation, impairment assessments for goodwill, indefinite-lived intangible assets and long-lived assets and income taxes. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management, which could have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of highly liquid temporary instruments purchased with original maturities of three months or less. It also includes deposits in-transit from banks for payments related to third-party credit card and debit card transactions. The Company maintains a portion of its cash in Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insured bank deposit accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. To date, the Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. The Company does not believe, based on the size and strength of the banking institutions used, it is exposed to any significant credit risks in cash.

Restricted cash

The Company classifies cash balances pledged as collateral as Restricted cash on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The Company provides an allowance for credit losses based on historical loss experience, collection experience, delinquency trends, economic conditions and specific identification. The Accounts receivable balance on the Consolidated Balance Sheets is presented net of the Company’s allowance for credit losses and is comprised of various customer-related accounts receivable.

Changes in the balance of the allowance for credit losses are as follows:

(in thousands)	Fiscal 2024			Fiscal 2023
Beginning balance	$	650		$	728
Provision		177			89
Write-offs		(356	)		(167	)
Ending balance	$	471		$	650

Inventory

Inventories primarily consist of merchandise purchased for resale. For financial reporting and tax purposes, the Company’s United States inventory, primarily merchandise held for sale, is stated at last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) cost, which is lower than net realizable value. The Company accounts for its non-United States inventory on the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method. The United States inventory accounted for using the LIFO method was 93% of total inventory as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024. If the FIFO method of accounting for inventory had been used, the effect on inventory would have been an increase of $0.5 million and $1.5 million as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, respectively.

The Company maintains a reserve for excess and obsolete inventory. The reserve is calculated based on historical experience related to liquidation and disposal of identified inventory. The excess and obsolescence reserve balances were $11.7 million and $18.1 million as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, respectively.

Deferred Catalog Costs and Marketing

Costs incurred for direct response marketing consist primarily of catalog production and mailing costs that are generally amortized within two months from the date catalogs are mailed. Unamortized marketing costs reported as prepaid assets were $10.1 million and $10.3 million as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, respectively. The Company expenses the costs of marketing for website, magazine, newspaper, radio and other general media when the marketing takes place. Marketing expenses, including catalog costs amortization, digital-related costs and other print media were $207.6 million, $200.5 million and $205.6 million for Fiscal 2024, Fiscal 2023 and Fiscal 2022, respectively. These costs are included within Selling and administrative expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Additions and substantial improvements are capitalized and include expenditures that materially extend the useful lives of existing facilities and

equipment. Maintenance and repairs that do not materially improve or extend the lives of the respective assets are expensed as incurred. As of the balance sheet dates, Property and equipment, net consisted of the following:

(in thousands)	Asset Lives (years)	January 31, 2025			February 2, 2024
Land	—	$	3,328		$	3,450
Buildings and improvements	15-30		102,472			101,232
Furniture, fixtures and equipment	3-10		70,199			66,373
Computer hardware and software	3-10		274,299			261,764
Leasehold improvements	3-7		11,737			12,673
Construction in progress			25,972			17,706
Gross property and equipment			488,007			463,198
Less: Accumulated depreciation			(372,389	)		(345,165	)
Total property and equipment, net		$	115,618		$	118,033

As of both January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, construction in progress relates primarily to technological investments.

Depreciation expense is recorded over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets using the straight-line method. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the associated lease term or the estimated useful life of the asset. Depreciation expense was $33.8 million, $38.5 million and $38.7 million for Fiscal 2024, Fiscal 2023 and Fiscal 2022, respectively.

Leases

The Company is a lessee under various lease agreements for its Company Operated store locations and certain international distribution and office facilities. All leases are classified as operating leases. The Company’s leases have remaining lease terms ranging from less than one year up to six years with renewal options. The lease term is defined as the noncancelable portion of the lease term plus any periods covered by an option to extend the lease, if it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised.

The determination of whether an arrangement contains a lease and the classification of a lease, if applicable, is made at lease inception. Lease commencement is the date in which the lessor provides the Company access to, and the right to control, the identified asset. At lease commencement, the Company recognizes a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability measured at the present value of the future minimum lease payments. Minimum lease payments include the fixed lease component of the agreement, as well as any variable rate payments that depend on an index, initially measured using the index at the lease commencement date. The right-of-use asset is recorded at the amount of the lease liability, increased for prepaid lease and initial direct costs paid and reduced by any lease incentives.

The Company has elected the practical expedient of not recognizing a right-of-use asset or lease liability for short-term leases, which are leases with a term of twelve months or less. Lease payments on short-term leases are expensed as incurred. The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components. The Company has elected the practical expedient to combine lease and non-lease components. The Company does not have any leases with residual value guarantees or restrictions or covenants imposed by the lease.

Due to the absence of an implicit rate in the Company’s lease agreements, the Company estimates its incremental borrowing rate at lease commencement in determining the present value of lease payments for each lease based on the lease term, lease currency and the Company’s credit spread. The yield curve selected at the lease commencement date represents one notch above the Company’s unsecured credit rating, and therefore is considered a close proxy for the incremental borrowing rate the Company would incur for secured debt.

In addition to rent payments, the lease agreements contain payments for real estate taxes, insurance, common area maintenance and utilities that are not fixed. The Company accounts for these costs as variable payments and does not include such costs as a lease component.

The Company’s leases are classified as operating leases, which are included in the Operating lease right-of-use asset, Lease liability – current and Lease liability – long-term on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in Selling and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. See Note 4, Leases.

Long-lived Asset Impairment Analysis

Property and equipment are subject to a review for impairment if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. In accordance with ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment (“ASC 360”) the Company reviewed the long-lived asset groups for impairment as of January 31, 2025.

During Second Quarter 2024, the Company considered management’s decision to replace the existing information technology infrastructure with an enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) software system within the next 18 to 24 months to be a triggering event. The Company determined that certain long-lived assets, primarily capitalized internal-use software projects and computer software, would no longer be utilized or have future benefit with the planned ERP platform and recognized impairment in the amount of $3.8 million during the 52 weeks ended January 31, 2025, recorded in Other operating expense, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company Operated store long-lived asset groups, including Operating right-of-use assets, are regularly reviewed for impairment indicators when the Company Operated store meets Same Store Sales status. A Company Operated store is included in U.S. Same Store Sales calculations when it has been open for at least 14 months. Impairment is assessed at the individual store level which is the lowest level of identifiable cash flows and considers the estimated undiscounted cash flows over the asset’s remaining life. If estimated undiscounted cash flows are insufficient to recover the investment, an impairment loss is recognized equal to the difference between the estimated fair value of the asset and its carrying value, net of salvage, and any costs of disposition. The fair value estimate is generally the discounted amount of estimated store-specific cash flows. During Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023, the Company recognized no impairment. In Fiscal 2022, the Company recognized impairment of $0.5 million for right-of-use assets and property and equipment of Company Operated store locations.

Goodwill and Indefinite-lived Intangible Asset Impairment Assessments

Goodwill and the indefinite-lived trade name intangible asset are tested separately for impairment on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Impairment assessments contain multiple uncertainties because the calculation requires management to make assumptions and to apply judgment to estimate future cash flows and asset fair values. If actual results fall short of the Company’s estimates and assumptions used in estimating future cash flows and asset fair values, the Company may incur future impairment charges that could be material.

Goodwill impairment assessments

In Fiscal 2023, in connection with the preparation of the financial statements for the quarter ended October 27, 2023, the Company considered the decline in the Company’s stock price and market capitalization, as well as the then current market and macroeconomic conditions, to be a triggering event for the U.S. eCommerce and Outfitters reporting units and therefore completed an interim test for impairment of goodwill for these reporting units as of October 27, 2023. The Company tested goodwill for impairment using a one-step quantitative test. The quantitative test compared the reporting unit’s fair value to its carrying value. An impairment was recorded for any excess carrying value above the reporting unit’s fair value, not to exceed the amount of goodwill. The Company estimated fair value of its reporting units using a discounted cash flow model, commonly referred to as the income approach. The income approach used a reporting unit’s projection of estimated operating results and cash flows that was discounted using a weighted-average cost of capital that reflected then current market conditions appropriate to the Company’s reporting unit. The discounted cash flow model used management’s best estimates of economic and market conditions over the projected period using the best information available, including growth rates in revenues, costs and estimates of future

expected changes in operating margins and cash expenditures. Other significant estimates and assumptions included terminal value growth rates, weighted average cost of capital and changes in future working capital requirements.

The testing resulted in goodwill impairment of the remaining $70.4 million and $36.3 million of goodwill allocated to the Company’s U.S. eCommerce and Outfitters reporting units, respectively.

Indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment assessments

The Company’s indefinite-lived intangible asset is the Lands’ End trade name. The Company reviews the trade name for impairment on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. The fair value of the trade name indefinite-lived intangible asset is estimated using the relief from royalty method. The relief from royalty method is based on the assumption that, in lieu of ownership, a firm would be willing to pay a royalty in order to exploit the related benefits of this asset class. The relief from royalty method involves two steps: (1) estimation of reasonable royalty rates for the assets and (2) the application of these royalty rates to a forecasted net revenue stream and discounting the resulting cash flows to determine a present value. The Company multiplied the selected royalty rate by the forecasted net revenue stream to calculate the cost savings (relief from royalty payment) associated with the asset. The cash flows are then discounted to present value using the selected discount rate and compared to the carrying value of the asset.

There was no impairment of the trade name during any period presented.

Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk

The $275.0 million ABL Facility includes a $70.0 million sublimit for letters of credit and the maturity date is July 29, 2026. The ABL Facility is available for working capital and other general corporate liquidity needs. There was no balance outstanding as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024. The balance of outstanding letters of credit was $10.9 million and $9.1 million on January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company determines the fair value of financial instruments in accordance with accounting standards pertaining to fair value measurements. Such standards define fair value and establish a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP. Under fair value measurement accounting standards, fair value is considered to be the exchange price in an orderly transaction between market participants to sell an asset or transfer a liability at the measurement date. The Company reports or discloses the fair value of financial assets and liabilities based on the fair value hierarchy prescribed by accounting standards for fair value measurements, which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels.

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist principally of accounts receivable. Total accounts receivable, net was $47.8 million and $35.3 million as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, respectively.

Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, net, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities and revolving long-term borrowings on ABL Facility are reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at cost, which approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Long-term debt, net is reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at amortized cost. The fair value of debt was determined utilizing Level 3 valuation techniques as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024. See Note 9, Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities.

Foreign Currency Translations and Transactions

The Company translates the assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries from their respective functional currencies to United States dollars at the appropriate spot rates as of the balance sheet date. Revenue and expenses of operations are translated to United States dollars using weighted average exchange rates during the year. The foreign subsidiaries use the local currency as their functional currency. The effects of foreign currency translation adjustments

are included as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive loss in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Changes in Stockholders’ Equity. Foreign currency translation losses, net, for Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2022 total approximately $0.6 million and $4.4 million, respectively. Foreign currency translation gains, net for Fiscal 2023 totaled approximately $1.0 million. The Company recognized a foreign exchange transaction loss of $0.4 million and $1.0 million in Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2022, respectively. The Company recognized a foreign exchange transaction gain of $1.0 million in Fiscal 2023. These are recorded in either Cost of sales (excluding depreciation and amortization) or Selling and administrative in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations based on the underlying nature of the transactions giving rise to the gain or loss.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue includes sales of merchandise and delivery revenue related to merchandise sold. Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is recognized when control of product passes to customers, which for the U.S. eCommerce, Europe eCommerce, Outfitters and Third Party distribution channels is when the merchandise is received by the customer and for the Retail distribution channel is at the time of sale in the store. The Company recognizes revenue, including shipping and handling fees billed to customers, in the amount expected to be received when control of the Company’s products transfers to customers, and is presented net of various forms of promotions, which range from contractually fixed percentage price reductions to sales returns, discounts, and other incentives that may vary in amount. Variable amounts are estimated based on an analysis of historical experience and adjusted as better estimates become available.

The Company generates royalty revenue from licensing the right to use its trademarks to third parties. The licensing agreements generally are exclusive to a product category, selling channel and/or geography, have terms in excess of one year, provide for annual guaranteed minimum royalties and, in most cases, include renewal options. In certain agreements, the licensee pays the Company a fulfillment fee for licensed product sold on the Company’s website and fulfilled from the Company’s distribution center. The trademark royalty revenue and fulfillment fee are included in Net revenue and reported in the Licensing distribution channel.

In exchange for providing these rights, the license agreements require the licensees to pay the Company a trademark royalty based on net sales as defined in the license agreements. The Company recognizes sales-based royalty revenue at the later of (i) when the related sales of the licensed product occur, or (ii) when the performance obligation has been satisfied, when the Company expects the annual guaranteed minimums will be met, where such provisions exist. If a sales-based royalty is not ultimately expected to exceed a contractually guaranteed minimum royalty amount, the minimum is recognized straight-line as revenue over the contractual period, if all other criteria of revenue recognition have been met. In certain licensing agreements, the Company agreed to perform transitional activities, such as marketing, for the licensed products. The Company receives reimbursement for such services at cost. The amount of these reimbursements, which are recorded as a reduction of Selling and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, for Fiscal 2024 was $9.3 million.

The Company excludes from revenue, taxes assessed by governmental authorities, including value-added and other sales-related taxes, that are imposed on and concurrent with revenue-producing activities.

Contract Liabilities

Contract liabilities consist of payments received in advance of the transfer of control to the customer. As products are delivered and control transfers, the Company recognizes the deferred revenue in Net revenue in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The following table summarizes the deferred revenue associated with payments received in advance of the transfer of control to the customer reported in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and amounts recognized through Net revenue for each period presented. The majority of deferred revenue as of January 31, 2025 is expected to be recognized in Net revenue in First Quarter 2025, as products are delivered to customers.

(in thousands)	Fiscal 2024			Fiscal 2023
Deferred revenue beginning of period	$	4,314		$	7,484
Deferred revenue recognized in period		(4,100	)		(7,270	)
Revenue deferred in period		6,370			4,100
Deferred revenue end of period	$	6,584		$	4,314

Revenue from gift cards is recognized when (i) the gift card is redeemed by the customer for merchandise, or (ii) as gift card breakage, an estimate of gift cards which will not be redeemed where the Company does not have a legal obligation to remit the value of the unredeemed gift cards to the relevant jurisdictions. Gift card breakage is recorded within Net revenue in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Prior to their redemption, gift cards are recorded as a liability, included within Accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The liability is estimated based on expected breakage that considers historical patterns of redemption. The following table provides the reconciliation of the contract liability related to gift cards:

(in thousands)	Fiscal 2024			Fiscal 2023
Balance as of beginning of period	$	35,604		$	33,029
Gift cards sold		68,555			66,392
Gift cards redeemed		(64,783	)		(60,374	)
Gift card breakage		(4,630	)		(3,443	)
Balance as of end of period	$	34,746		$	35,604

Refund Liabilities

Refund liabilities, primarily associated with product sales returns and retrospective volume rebates, represent variable consideration and are estimated and recorded as a reduction to Net revenue based on historical experience. As of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, $15.2 million and $21.6 million, respectively, of refund liabilities, primarily associated with estimated product returns, were recorded in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales are comprised principally of the costs of merchandise sold, inbound shipping and handling, duty, warehousing and distribution (including receiving, picking, packing, store delivery and value-added costs), customer shipping and handling costs and physical inventory losses. Depreciation and amortization are not included in the Company’s Cost of sales.

Selling and Administrative Expenses

Selling and administrative expenses are comprised principally of payroll and benefits costs, marketing, information technology expenses, third-party services, occupancy costs of Company Operated stores and corporate facilities, and other administrative expenses. All stock-based compensation is recorded in Selling and administrative expenses. See Note 5, Stock-Based Compensation.

Income Taxes

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are based on the estimated future tax effects of differences between the financial and tax basis of assets and liabilities based on currently enacted tax laws. The tax balances and income tax expense recognized are based on management’s interpretation of the tax laws of multiple jurisdictions. Income tax expense also reflects best estimates and assumptions regarding, among other things, the level of future taxable income and tax planning. Future changes in tax laws, changes in projected levels of taxable income, tax planning and adoption and implementation of new accounting standards could impact the effective tax rate and tax balances recorded.

Tax positions are recognized when they are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination. The amount recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is more likely than not to be realized upon settlement. The Company is subject to periodic audits by the United States Internal Revenue Service and other state and local taxing authorities. These audits may challenge certain of the Company’s tax positions such as the timing and amount of income and deductions and the allocation of taxable income to various tax jurisdictions. The Company evaluates its tax positions and establishes liabilities in accordance with the applicable accounting guidance on uncertainty in income taxes. These tax uncertainties are reviewed as facts and circumstances change and are adjusted accordingly. This requires significant management judgment in estimating final outcomes. Interest and penalties are classified as Income tax expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. See Note 11, Income Taxes, for further details.

The Company performed an evaluation over its deferred tax assets and determined that a valuation allowance is considered necessary for certain jurisdictions. See Note 11, Income Taxes, for further details on the valuation allowance.

Self-Insurance

The Company has a self-insured plan for health and welfare benefits and provides an accrual to cover the obligation. The accrual for the self-insured liability is based on claims filed and an estimate of claims incurred but not yet reported. The Company considers a number of factors, including historical claims information, when determining the amount of the accrual. Costs related to the administration of the plan and related claims are expensed as incurred. Total expenses, net of employee contributions, were $21.8 million, $18.9 million and $17.7 million for Fiscal 2024, Fiscal 2023 and Fiscal 2022, respectively.

The Company also has a self-insured plan for certain costs related to workers’ compensation. The Company obtains third-party insurance coverage to limit exposure to this workers’ compensation self-insured risk.

Retirement Benefit Plan

The Company has a 401(k) retirement plan, which covers most regular employees and allows them to make contributions. The Company also provides a matching contribution on a portion of the employee contributions. Total expenses incurred under this plan were $3.7 million for Fiscal 2024 and $3.9 million for Fiscal 2023 and Fiscal 2022.

Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Other comprehensive income (loss) encompasses all changes in equity other than those arising from transactions with stockholders and is comprised solely of foreign currency translation adjustments. The Company’s foreign subsidiaries use their local currency as their functional currency. Functional currency assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. Dollars using exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, and revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates during the period. Resulting translation gains and losses are reported in other comprehensive income (loss), until the substantial liquidation of a subsidiary, at which time accumulated transactions gains or losses are reclassified into net income. During Fiscal 2023, the Company recognized a net gain of $0.4 million of cumulative foreign currency translation adjustments related to the substantial liquidation of Lands’ End Japan. See Note 8, Lands’ End Japan Closure.

(in thousands)	Fiscal 2024			Fiscal 2023			Fiscal 2022
Beginning balance: Accumulated other comprehensive loss (net of tax of $4,271, $4,525, and $3,361, respectively)	$	(16,069	)	$	(17,022	)	$	(12,642	)
Other comprehensive income (loss)
Foreign currency translation adjustments (net of tax of $(37), $(348), and $1,164, respectively)		(600	)		1,307			(4,380	)

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation expense for restricted stock units is comprised of both Deferred Awards and Performance Awards. Deferred awards only require each recipient to complete a service period for the awards to be earned. The fair value of Deferred Awards is based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date. Performance awards have, in addition to a service agreement, financial performance criteria or stock performance criteria that must be achieved for the awards to be earned. The Performance Awards, granted in Fiscal 2023 are also subject to a relative total shareholder return (TSR) modifier. The fair value of Performance Awards granted prior to Fiscal 2023, as well as the portion of the Fiscal 2024 Performance Awards with financial performance criteria, are based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date. The fair value for both the Performance Awards granted in Fiscal 2024 with stock performance criteria and the Performance Awards granted in Fiscal 2023 with a relative TSR modifier are based on the Monte Carlo simulation model. Option Awards provide the recipient with the option to purchase a set number of shares at a stated exercise price over the term of the contract, which is ten years for all Option Awards currently outstanding. Options are granted with a strike price equal to the stock price on the date of grant and vest over the requisite service period of the award.

The Company recognizes stock-based compensation cost net of estimated forfeitures and revises the estimated forfeitures in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from the estimates. The Company estimates the forfeiture rate based on historical data as well as expected future behavior. Stock-based compensation is recorded in Selling and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations over the period in which the employee is required to provide service in exchange for the Deferred Awards and Option awards and over the applicable performance period for Performance Awards.

Earnings (Loss) per Share

The numerator for both basic and diluted EPS is net income (loss) attributable to the Company. The denominator for basic EPS is based upon the number of weighted average shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding

during the reporting periods. The denominator for diluted EPS is based upon the number of weighted average shares of the Company’s common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding during the reporting periods using the treasury stock method in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share.

The following table summarizes the components of basic and diluted EPS:

(in thousands)	Fiscal 2024		Fiscal 2023			Fiscal 2022
Net income (loss)	$	6,233	$	(130,684	)	$	(12,530	)
Basic weighted average shares outstanding		31,213		31,970			33,108
Dilutive impact of stock awards		451		—			—
Diluted weighted average shares outstanding		31,664		31,970			33,108
Earnings (loss) per share
Basic	$	0.20	$	(4.09	)	$	(0.38	)
Diluted	$	0.20	$	(4.09	)	$	(0.38	)
Anti-dilutive shares excluded from diluted earnings (loss) per common share calculation		285		1,021			1,186

Stock awards are considered anti-dilutive based on the application of the treasury stock method or in the event of a net loss.

Repurchases of Common Stock

Shares of the Company’s common stock may be repurchased by the Company through open market transactions. The par value of the shares retired was charged against Common stock and the remaining purchase price, including any broker commissions and excise taxes paid, was either (i) allocated between Additional paid-in capital and Retained earnings, or (ii) charged directly against Additional paid-in capital. To the extent the shares are repurchased at a price less than that of initial issuance, or to the extent the Company does not have sufficient reserves in Retained earnings at the time of repurchase, the excess of the purchase price over par value is accounted for entirely as a deduction from Additional paid-in capital. The Company retired all shares that were purchased through the 2024 Share Repurchase Program and the 2022 Share Repurchase Program. See Note 6, Stockholders’ Equity.

The borrowing margin for ABL Adjusted SOFR loans is (i) less than $95.0 million, 1.25%, (ii) equal to or greater than $95.0 million but less than $180.0 million, 1.50%, and (iii) greater than or equal to $180.0 million, 1.75%. For base rate loans, the borrowing margin is (i) less than $95.0 million, 0.50%, (ii) equal to or greater

than $95.0 million but less than $180.0 million, 0.75%, and (iii) greater than or equal to $180.0 million, 1.00% (“Applicable Borrowing Margin”). The Applicable Borrowing Margin for all loans is based upon the average daily total loans outstanding for the previous quarter. The Fourth Amendment had no material interest rate impact.

The ABL Facility fees include (i) commitment fees of 0.25% based upon the average daily unused commitment (aggregate commitment less loans and letter of credit outstanding) under the ABL Facility for the preceding fiscal quarter, (ii) customary letter of credit fees and (iii) customary annual agent fees. As of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, the Company had no borrowings outstanding under the ABL Facility.

Long-Term Debt

On December 29, 2023, the Company entered into the Current Term Loan Facility which provides borrowings of $260.0 million, the proceeds of which were used to repay all of the indebtedness under the Former Term Loan Facility and to pay fees and expenses in connection with the financing. Origination costs, including a 3% original issue discount of $7.8 million and debt origination fees of $3.8 million, were incurred in connection with entering into the Current Term Loan Facility. The original issue discount and the debt origination fees are presented as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the Current Term Loan Facility and Former Term Loan Facility and are amortized over the term of the loan to Interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Current Term Loan Facility will mature on December 29, 2028, and amortizes at a rate equal to 1.25% per quarter. Depending upon the Company’s Total Leverage Ratio, as defined in the Current Term Loan Facility, mandatory prepayments in an amount equal to a percentage of the Company’s excess cash flows in each fiscal year, ranging from 0% to 75% are required. The Current Term Loan Facility also has typical prepayment requirements for the proceeds of certain asset sales, casualty events and extraordinary receipts. Voluntary prepayment and certain mandatory prepayments made (i) between December 30, 2024 and December 29, 2025 would result in a prepayment premium equal to 2% of the principal amount of the loan prepaid, (ii) between December 30, 2025 and December 29, 2026, would result in a prepayment premium equal to 1% of the principal amount of the loan prepaid, (iii) between December 30, 2026 and December 29, 2027, would result in a prepayment premium equal to 0.5% of the principal amount of the loan prepaid and (iv) thereafter no prepayment premium is due.

As a result of the Former Term Loan Facility repayment before the scheduled maturity date, the transaction was subject to a 1% prepayment premium of $2.3 million. Additionally, the Company recorded $4.4 million for the write off of unamortized original issue discount and debt issuance costs of the Former Term Loan Facility. These charges resulted in a loss on extinguishment of debt of $6.7 million in Fiscal 2023.

The Company’s long-term debt consisted of the following:

	January 31, 2025					February 2, 2024
(in thousands)	Amount		Interest Rate			Amount		Interest Rate
Current Term Loan Facility	$	247,000		12.66	%		260,000		13.70	%
Less: Current portion of long-term debt		13,000					13,000
Less: Unamortized debt issuance costs		9,112					10,830
Long-term debt, net	$	224,888				$	236,170

The interest rates per annum applicable to the loans under the Current Term Loan Facility are based on a fluctuating rate of interest equal to, at the Company’s election, either (1) Term Loan Adjusted SOFR loan (subject to a 2% floor) plus an applicable margin, or (2) an alternative base rate loan plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin is based on the Company’s net leverage and will be, (i) for Term Loan Adjusted SOFR loans, 8.25% per annum if the total leverage ratio is greater than or equal to 2.75:1.00, 8.00% per annum if the total leverage ratio is less than 2.75:1.00 but greater than or equal to 2.25:1.00, and 7.75% per annum if the total leverage ratio is less than 2.25:1.00 and (ii) for base rate loans, 7.25% per annum if the total leverage ratio is greater than or equal to 2.75:1.00, 7.00% per annum if the total leverage ratio is less than 2.75:1.00 but greater than or equal to 2.25:1.00, and 6.75% per annum if

the total leverage ratio is less than 2.25:1.00. In each case, the net leverage is determined as of the last day of each applicable measurement period.

Effective with the First Amendment to the Former Term Loan Facility executed June 22, 2023, the interest rate benchmark changed from LIBOR to Term Loan Adjusted SOFR. The annual interest rate applicable to the loans under the Former Term Loan Facility was based on a fluctuating rate of interest measured by reference to, at the borrower’s election, either (1) a Term Loan Adjusted SOFR rate plus 9.75% or (2) an alternative base rate (which was the greater of (i) the prime rate published in the Wall Street Journal, (ii) the federal funds rate, which was to be no lower than 0.00% plus ½ of 1.00%, or (iii) the one month Term Loan Adjusted SOFR rate plus 1.00% per annum) plus 8.75%.

Both the Current Term Loan Facility and the Former Term Loan Facility contain customary agency fees.

Maturity; Amortization and Prepayments

The ABL Facility maturity date is July 29, 2026.

The Current Term Loan Facility will mature on December 29, 2028, will amortize at a rate equal to 1.25% per quarter. Depending upon the Company’s Total Leverage Ratio, as defined in the Current Term Loan Facility, mandatory prepayments in an amount equal to a percentage of the Company’s excess cash flows in each fiscal year, ranging from 0% to 75% are required. The Current Term Loan Facility also has typical prepayment requirements for the proceeds of certain asset sales, casualty events and extraordinary receipts. Voluntary prepayment and certain mandatory prepayments made (i) between December 30, 2024 and December 29, 2025 would result in a prepayment premium equal to 2% of the principal amount of the loan prepaid, (ii) between December 30, 2025 and December 29, 2026, would result in a prepayment premium equal to 1% of the principal amount of the loan prepaid, (iii) between December 30, 2026 and December 29, 2027, would result in a prepayment premium equal to 0.5% of the principal amount of the loan prepaid and (iv) thereafter no prepayment premium is due.

Stock-Based Compensation

Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]

Stock-Based Compensation

NOTE 5. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company expenses the fair value of all stock awards over their requisite service period, ensuring that the amount of cumulative stock-based compensation expense recognized at any date is at least equal to the portion of the grant-date fair value of the award that is vested at that date. The Company has elected to adjust stock-based compensation expense for an estimated forfeiture rate for those shares not expected to vest and to recognize stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis for awards that only have a service requirement with multiple vest dates.

The Company has granted the following types of stock awards to employees at management levels and above, each of which are granted under the Company’s stockholder approved stock plans, other than inducement grants outside of the Company’s stockholder approved stock plans in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c)(4):

i.Deferred Awards are in the form of restricted stock units and only require each recipient to complete a service period for the awards to be earned. Deferred Awards generally vest over three years. The fair value of Deferred Awards is based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized ratably over the service period and is reduced for estimated forfeitures of those awards not expected to vest due to employee turnover.

ii.Performance Awards are in the form of restricted stock units and have, in addition to a service requirement, financial performance criteria and/or stock performance criteria that must be achieved for the awards to be earned. For Performance Awards with financial performance criteria, the Target Shares earned can range from 50% to 200% (such result, the “Earned Shares”) once minimum thresholds have been reached and depend on the achievement of certain financial measures for the cumulative period comprised of three-consecutive fiscal years beginning with the fiscal year of the grant date. Performance Awards are also subject to limitations under the Company’s stockholder approved stock plans. The applicable percentage of the Target Shares, as determined by the applicable performance measure, vest after the completion of the applicable three-year performance period and upon determination of achievement of the performance measures by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Unearned Target Shares are forfeited.

The Performance Awards granted in Fiscal 2023 are also subject to a relative total shareholder return (“TSR”) modifier which is based on the Company’s total return to stockholders over the measurement period relative to a custom peer group. The Fiscal 2023 Performance Award TSR modifier can result in an adjustment of 75% to 125% of the Earned Shares, subject to an overall cap of 200% of Target Shares and a modifier limitation to 100% of Target Shares in the event TSR is negative.

For the Performance Awards granted in Fiscal 2024 with stock performance criteria, the Target Shares earned can range from 0% to 100% based on the Company’s highest average per share common stock closing price, measured over any 20 consecutive trading-day period during the three-consecutive fiscal years beginning with the fiscal year of the grant date.

The grant date fair value of the Performance Awards granted prior to Fiscal 2023, as well as the Fiscal 2024 Performance Awards with financial performance criteria, are based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date.

The grant date fair value for both the Performance Awards granted in Fiscal 2024 with stock performance criteria and the Performance Awards granted in Fiscal 2023 with a relative TSR modifier are based on the Monte Carlo simulation model.

Stock-based compensation expense, including awards with market conditions, is recognized ratably over the related service period, reduced for estimated forfeitures of those awards not expected to vest due to employee turnover and adjusted based on the Company’s estimate of the percentage of the aggregate Target Shares expected to be earned. The Company accrues for Performance Awards on a 100% payout unless it becomes probable that the outcome will be significantly different, or the performance can be accurately measured.

iii.Option Awards provide the recipient with the option to purchase a set number of shares at a stated exercise price over the term of the contract, which is ten years for all Option Awards currently outstanding. Options are granted with a strike price equal to the stock price on the date of grant and vest over the requisite service period of the award. The fair value of each Option Award is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

The following table provides a summary of the Company’s stock-based compensation expense, which is included in Selling and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations:

(in thousands)	Fiscal 2024		Fiscal 2023			Fiscal 2022
Deferred awards	$	3,541	$	3,491		$	5,744
Performance awards (1)		917		(87	)		(2,090	)
Option awards		415		423			99
Total stock-based compensation expense	$	4,873	$	3,827		$	3,753

(1)Net credit expense for Fiscal 2023 and Fiscal 2022 includes a reduction of the accrual for Performance Awards based on actual and projected results relative to performance measures and forfeitures.

The 2022 Share Repurchase Program expired on February 2, 2024.

On March 15, 2024, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to $25.0 million of the Company’s common stock through March 31, 2026 (the “2024 Share Repurchase Program”).

NOTE 9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS OF FINANCIAL ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash is reflected on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value based on Level 1 inputs. Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash amounts are valued based upon statements received from financial institutions. The fair value of restricted cash was $2.6 million and $2.0 million as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, respectively.

Carrying amounts and fair values of long-term debt, including current portion, in the Consolidated Balance Sheets are as follows:

Goodwill and Indefinite Lived Intangible Assets

NOTE 10. GOODWILL AND INDEFINITE-LIVED INTANGIBLE ASSET

The Company’s intangible assets, consisting of a goodwill and trade name, were originally valued in connection with a business combination accounted for under the purchase accounting method. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired. Goodwill was fully impaired in Fiscal 2023.

The following table summarizes the activity of the Company’s Goodwill:

(in thousands)	Goodwill
Balance January 27, 2023
Gross amount	$	110.0
Accumulated impairment losses		(3.3	)
Carrying Value		106.7
Impairment loss booked in Fiscal 2023		106.7
Balance February 2, 2024
Gross amount		110.0
Accumulated impairment losses		(110.0	)
Carrying Value	$	—

The carrying value of Intangible asset, net was $257.0 million as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024.

ASC 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other, requires companies to test goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually, or more often if an event or circumstance indicates that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. In connection with the preparation of the financial statements included in the Company’s Third Quarter 2023 Form 10-Q, the Company considered the decline in the Company’s stock price and market capitalization, as well as current market and macroeconomic conditions, to be a triggering event for the U.S. eCommerce and Outfitters reporting units and therefore completed a test for impairment of goodwill for these reporting units as of October 27, 2023. The Company tested goodwill for impairment using a one-step quantitative test. The quantitative test compares the reporting unit’s fair value to its carrying value. An impairment is recorded for any excess carrying value above the reporting unit’s fair value, not to exceed the amount of goodwill. The Company estimates fair value of its reporting units using a discounted cash flow model, commonly referred to as the income approach. The income approach uses a reporting unit’s projection of estimated operating results and cash flows that is discounted using a weighted-average cost of capital that reflects current market conditions appropriate to the Company’s reporting unit. The discounted cash flow model uses management’s best estimates of economic and market conditions over the projected period using the best information available, including growth rates in revenues, costs and estimates of future expected changes in operating margins and cash expenditures. Other significant estimates and assumptions include terminal value growth rates, weighted average cost of capital and changes in future working capital requirements.

The impairment test resulted in full impairment of $70.4 million and $36.3 million of goodwill allocated to the Company’s U.S. eCommerce and Outfitters reporting units, respectively.

There was no impairment of the trade name during any period presented.

As of January 31, 2025, the Company had $117.5 million of federal and state net operating loss (“NOL”) and interest expense carryforwards (generating a $12.2 million deferred tax asset) available to offset future taxable income. The federal carryforwards have an indefinite life. The state NOL carryforwards generally expire between 2025 and 2044 with certain state NOLs and interest expense carryforwards generated after 2017 having indefinite lives. The Company’s foreign subsidiaries had $49.3 million of NOL carryforwards (generating a $14.1 million deferred tax asset) available to offset future taxable income. These foreign NOLs can be carried forward indefinitely, however, a valuation allowance was established since the future utilization of these NOLs is uncertain.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending gross amount of unrecognized tax benefits (“UTBs”) is as follows:

(in thousands)	Fiscal 2024			Fiscal 2023			Fiscal 2022
Gross UTBs balance at beginning of period	$	1,141		$	1,297		$	1,477

Settlements		(123	)		—			—
Gross UTBs balance at end of period	$	8,998		$	1,141		$	1,297

As of January 31, 2025, the Company had gross UTBs of $9.0 million. Of this amount, $0.8 million would, if recognized, impact its effective tax rate. The remaining liability relates to tax positions for which there are offsetting tax benefits, or the uncertainty was related only to timing. The Company does not expect that UTBs will fluctuate significantly in the next 12 months for tax audit settlements and the expiration of the statute of limitations for certain jurisdictions. Tax years 2021 through 2025 remain open for examination by the Internal Revenue Service as well as various state and foreign jurisdictions.

The Company classifies interest expense and penalties related to UTBs and interest income on tax overpayments as components of income tax expense. As of January 31, 2025, the total amount of interest expense and penalties

recognized on the balance sheet was $0.5 million ($0.4 million net of federal benefit). As of February 2, 2024, the total amount of interest and penalties recognized on the balance sheet was $0.6 million ($0.5 million net of federal benefit). The total amount of net interest expense recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations was insignificant for all periods presented. The Company files income tax returns in both the United States and various foreign jurisdictions.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

Segment Reporting

NOTE 13. SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company identifies operating segments according to how business activities are managed and evaluated. Following internal organizational changes and realignment of distribution channel responsibilities in Fourth Quarter 2024, the Company’s operating segments consisted of: U.S. eCommerce, Europe eCommerce, Outfitters, Third Party, Licensing and Retail. Beginning Fourth Quarter 2024, the Wholesale business is included in Licensing and prior periods were recast to reflect the change in operating segments for comparability purposes. During Fiscal 2022, the Company’s operating segments included Japan eCommerce. See Note 8, Lands’ End Japan Closure.

•U.S. eCommerce offers products through the Company’s eCommerce website.

•Europe eCommerce offers products primarily to consumers located in Europe and through eCommerce international websites and third-party affiliates.

•Outfitters sells uniform and logo apparel to businesses and their employees, as well as to student households through school relationships, located primarily in the U.S.

•Third Party sells products direct to consumers through third-party marketplace websites.

•Licensing earns royalties on the use of Lands’ End trademark and any fulfillment fees for fulfillment services provided by the Company.

•Retail sells products through Company Operated stores, located in the U.S.

The internal reporting of these operating segments is based, in part, on the reporting and review process used by the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), its Chief Executive Officer. The CODM assesses segment performance based on variable profit, which is defined as net revenue minus cost of sales and variable selling expenses to evaluate segment profitability and make decisions about resource allocations. The Company’s CODM monitors actual segment variable profit results relative to operating plan and forecast to assess the performance of the business and allocate resources. The CODM does not utilize segment asset information to evaluate performance and make resource allocation decisions, and thus such disclosures are not provided.

The Company determined the U.S. eCommerce, Outfitters and Third Party operating segments share similar economic and other qualitative characteristics, and therefore the results of these operating segments are aggregated into the U.S. Digital segment. The Europe eCommerce, Licensing and Retail operating segments are not quantitatively significant to be separately reported.

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 2. The Company has determined its significant segment expense categories based on amounts regularly provided to the Company’s CODM to evaluate segment profitability and drive strategic decision making. The following presents U.S. Digital segment sales and expenses:

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

12 Months Ended

Jan. 31, 2025

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Fiscal Year

Fiscal Year

The Company’s fiscal year end is on the Friday preceding the Saturday closest to January 31 each year. The fiscal periods in this report are presented as follows, unless the context otherwise requires:

Fiscal Year	Ended	Weeks
2024	January 31, 2025	52
2023	February 2, 2024	53
2022	January 27, 2023	52

Seasonality

Seasonality

The Company’s operations have historically been seasonal, with a disproportionate amount of net revenue occurring in the fourth fiscal quarter, reflecting increased customer demand during the year-end holiday selling season. The impact of seasonality on results of operations is more pronounced since the level of certain fixed costs, such as occupancy and overhead expenses, do not vary with sales. The Company’s results of operations also may fluctuate based upon such factors as the timing of certain holiday season dates and promotions, the amount of net revenue contributed by new and existing stores, the timing and level of markdowns, competitive factors, weather and general economic conditions.

Working capital requirements typically increase during the second and third quarters of the fiscal year as inventory builds to support peak selling periods and, accordingly, typically decrease during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year as inventory is sold. Cash provided by operating activities is typically higher in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year due to reduced working capital requirements during that period.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reportable amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements include timing of revenue recognition, estimated merchandise returns, inventory valuation, impairment assessments for goodwill, indefinite-lived intangible assets and long-lived assets and income taxes. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management, which could have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of highly liquid temporary instruments purchased with original maturities of three months or less. It also includes deposits in-transit from banks for payments related to third-party credit card and debit card transactions. The Company maintains a portion of its cash in Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insured bank deposit accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. To date, the Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. The Company does not believe, based on the size and strength of the banking institutions used, it is exposed to any significant credit risks in cash.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash

The Company classifies cash balances pledged as collateral as Restricted cash on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Allowance for Credit Losses

Allowance for Credit Losses

The Company provides an allowance for credit losses based on historical loss experience, collection experience, delinquency trends, economic conditions and specific identification. The Accounts receivable balance on the Consolidated Balance Sheets is presented net of the Company’s allowance for credit losses and is comprised of various customer-related accounts receivable.

Changes in the balance of the allowance for credit losses are as follows:

(in thousands)	Fiscal 2024			Fiscal 2023
Beginning balance	$	650		$	728
Provision		177			89
Write-offs		(356	)		(167	)
Ending balance	$	471		$	650

Inventory

Inventory

Inventories primarily consist of merchandise purchased for resale. For financial reporting and tax purposes, the Company’s United States inventory, primarily merchandise held for sale, is stated at last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) cost, which is lower than net realizable value. The Company accounts for its non-United States inventory on the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method. The United States inventory accounted for using the LIFO method was 93% of total inventory as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024. If the FIFO method of accounting for inventory had been used, the effect on inventory would have been an increase of $0.5 million and $1.5 million as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, respectively.

The Company maintains a reserve for excess and obsolete inventory. The reserve is calculated based on historical experience related to liquidation and disposal of identified inventory. The excess and obsolescence reserve balances were $11.7 million and $18.1 million as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, respectively.

Deferred Catalog Costs and Marketing

Deferred Catalog Costs and Marketing

Costs incurred for direct response marketing consist primarily of catalog production and mailing costs that are generally amortized within two months from the date catalogs are mailed. Unamortized marketing costs reported as prepaid assets were $10.1 million and $10.3 million as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, respectively. The Company expenses the costs of marketing for website, magazine, newspaper, radio and other general media when the marketing takes place. Marketing expenses, including catalog costs amortization, digital-related costs and other print media were $207.6 million, $200.5 million and $205.6 million for Fiscal 2024, Fiscal 2023 and Fiscal 2022, respectively. These costs are included within Selling and administrative expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Property and Equipment

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Additions and substantial improvements are capitalized and include expenditures that materially extend the useful lives of existing facilities and

equipment. Maintenance and repairs that do not materially improve or extend the lives of the respective assets are expensed as incurred. As of the balance sheet dates, Property and equipment, net consisted of the following:

(in thousands)	Asset Lives (years)	January 31, 2025			February 2, 2024
Land	—	$	3,328		$	3,450
Buildings and improvements	15-30		102,472			101,232
Furniture, fixtures and equipment	3-10		70,199			66,373
Computer hardware and software	3-10		274,299			261,764
Leasehold improvements	3-7		11,737			12,673
Construction in progress			25,972			17,706
Gross property and equipment			488,007			463,198
Less: Accumulated depreciation			(372,389	)		(345,165	)
Total property and equipment, net		$	115,618		$	118,033

As of both January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, construction in progress relates primarily to technological investments.

Depreciation expense is recorded over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets using the straight-line method. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the associated lease term or the estimated useful life of the asset. Depreciation expense was $33.8 million, $38.5 million and $38.7 million for Fiscal 2024, Fiscal 2023 and Fiscal 2022, respectively.

Leases

Leases

The Company is a lessee under various lease agreements for its Company Operated store locations and certain international distribution and office facilities. All leases are classified as operating leases. The Company’s leases have remaining lease terms ranging from less than one year up to six years with renewal options. The lease term is defined as the noncancelable portion of the lease term plus any periods covered by an option to extend the lease, if it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised.

The determination of whether an arrangement contains a lease and the classification of a lease, if applicable, is made at lease inception. Lease commencement is the date in which the lessor provides the Company access to, and the right to control, the identified asset. At lease commencement, the Company recognizes a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability measured at the present value of the future minimum lease payments. Minimum lease payments include the fixed lease component of the agreement, as well as any variable rate payments that depend on an index, initially measured using the index at the lease commencement date. The right-of-use asset is recorded at the amount of the lease liability, increased for prepaid lease and initial direct costs paid and reduced by any lease incentives.

The Company has elected the practical expedient of not recognizing a right-of-use asset or lease liability for short-term leases, which are leases with a term of twelve months or less. Lease payments on short-term leases are expensed as incurred. The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components. The Company has elected the practical expedient to combine lease and non-lease components. The Company does not have any leases with residual value guarantees or restrictions or covenants imposed by the lease.

Due to the absence of an implicit rate in the Company’s lease agreements, the Company estimates its incremental borrowing rate at lease commencement in determining the present value of lease payments for each lease based on the lease term, lease currency and the Company’s credit spread. The yield curve selected at the lease commencement date represents one notch above the Company’s unsecured credit rating, and therefore is considered a close proxy for the incremental borrowing rate the Company would incur for secured debt.

In addition to rent payments, the lease agreements contain payments for real estate taxes, insurance, common area maintenance and utilities that are not fixed. The Company accounts for these costs as variable payments and does not include such costs as a lease component.

The Company’s leases are classified as operating leases, which are included in the Operating lease right-of-use asset, Lease liability – current and Lease liability – long-term on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in Selling and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. See Note 4, Leases.

Long-lived Asset Impairment Analysis

Long-lived Asset Impairment Analysis

Property and equipment are subject to a review for impairment if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. In accordance with ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment (“ASC 360”) the Company reviewed the long-lived asset groups for impairment as of January 31, 2025.

During Second Quarter 2024, the Company considered management’s decision to replace the existing information technology infrastructure with an enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) software system within the next 18 to 24 months to be a triggering event. The Company determined that certain long-lived assets, primarily capitalized internal-use software projects and computer software, would no longer be utilized or have future benefit with the planned ERP platform and recognized impairment in the amount of $3.8 million during the 52 weeks ended January 31, 2025, recorded in Other operating expense, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company Operated store long-lived asset groups, including Operating right-of-use assets, are regularly reviewed for impairment indicators when the Company Operated store meets Same Store Sales status. A Company Operated store is included in U.S. Same Store Sales calculations when it has been open for at least 14 months. Impairment is assessed at the individual store level which is the lowest level of identifiable cash flows and considers the estimated undiscounted cash flows over the asset’s remaining life. If estimated undiscounted cash flows are insufficient to recover the investment, an impairment loss is recognized equal to the difference between the estimated fair value of the asset and its carrying value, net of salvage, and any costs of disposition. The fair value estimate is generally the discounted amount of estimated store-specific cash flows. During Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023, the Company recognized no impairment. In Fiscal 2022, the Company recognized impairment of $0.5 million for right-of-use assets and property and equipment of Company Operated store locations.

Goodwill and Indefinite-lived Intangible Asset Impairment Assessments

Goodwill and Indefinite-lived Intangible Asset Impairment Assessments

Goodwill and the indefinite-lived trade name intangible asset are tested separately for impairment on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Impairment assessments contain multiple uncertainties because the calculation requires management to make assumptions and to apply judgment to estimate future cash flows and asset fair values. If actual results fall short of the Company’s estimates and assumptions used in estimating future cash flows and asset fair values, the Company may incur future impairment charges that could be material.

Goodwill impairment assessments

In Fiscal 2023, in connection with the preparation of the financial statements for the quarter ended October 27, 2023, the Company considered the decline in the Company’s stock price and market capitalization, as well as the then current market and macroeconomic conditions, to be a triggering event for the U.S. eCommerce and Outfitters reporting units and therefore completed an interim test for impairment of goodwill for these reporting units as of October 27, 2023. The Company tested goodwill for impairment using a one-step quantitative test. The quantitative test compared the reporting unit’s fair value to its carrying value. An impairment was recorded for any excess carrying value above the reporting unit’s fair value, not to exceed the amount of goodwill. The Company estimated fair value of its reporting units using a discounted cash flow model, commonly referred to as the income approach. The income approach used a reporting unit’s projection of estimated operating results and cash flows that was discounted using a weighted-average cost of capital that reflected then current market conditions appropriate to the Company’s reporting unit. The discounted cash flow model used management’s best estimates of economic and market conditions over the projected period using the best information available, including growth rates in revenues, costs and estimates of future

expected changes in operating margins and cash expenditures. Other significant estimates and assumptions included terminal value growth rates, weighted average cost of capital and changes in future working capital requirements.

The testing resulted in goodwill impairment of the remaining $70.4 million and $36.3 million of goodwill allocated to the Company’s U.S. eCommerce and Outfitters reporting units, respectively.

Indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment assessments

The Company’s indefinite-lived intangible asset is the Lands’ End trade name. The Company reviews the trade name for impairment on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. The fair value of the trade name indefinite-lived intangible asset is estimated using the relief from royalty method. The relief from royalty method is based on the assumption that, in lieu of ownership, a firm would be willing to pay a royalty in order to exploit the related benefits of this asset class. The relief from royalty method involves two steps: (1) estimation of reasonable royalty rates for the assets and (2) the application of these royalty rates to a forecasted net revenue stream and discounting the resulting cash flows to determine a present value. The Company multiplied the selected royalty rate by the forecasted net revenue stream to calculate the cost savings (relief from royalty payment) associated with the asset. The cash flows are then discounted to present value using the selected discount rate and compared to the carrying value of the asset.

There was no impairment of the trade name during any period presented.

Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk

Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk

The $275.0 million ABL Facility includes a $70.0 million sublimit for letters of credit and the maturity date is July 29, 2026. The ABL Facility is available for working capital and other general corporate liquidity needs. There was no balance outstanding as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024. The balance of outstanding letters of credit was $10.9 million and $9.1 million on January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company determines the fair value of financial instruments in accordance with accounting standards pertaining to fair value measurements. Such standards define fair value and establish a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP. Under fair value measurement accounting standards, fair value is considered to be the exchange price in an orderly transaction between market participants to sell an asset or transfer a liability at the measurement date. The Company reports or discloses the fair value of financial assets and liabilities based on the fair value hierarchy prescribed by accounting standards for fair value measurements, which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels.

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist principally of accounts receivable. Total accounts receivable, net was $47.8 million and $35.3 million as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, respectively.

Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, net, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities and revolving long-term borrowings on ABL Facility are reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at cost, which approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Long-term debt, net is reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at amortized cost. The fair value of debt was determined utilizing Level 3 valuation techniques as of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024. See Note 9, Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities.

Foreign Currency Transactions and Translations

Foreign Currency Translations and Transactions

The Company translates the assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries from their respective functional currencies to United States dollars at the appropriate spot rates as of the balance sheet date. Revenue and expenses of operations are translated to United States dollars using weighted average exchange rates during the year. The foreign subsidiaries use the local currency as their functional currency. The effects of foreign currency translation adjustments

are included as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive loss in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Changes in Stockholders’ Equity. Foreign currency translation losses, net, for Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2022 total approximately $0.6 million and $4.4 million, respectively. Foreign currency translation gains, net for Fiscal 2023 totaled approximately $1.0 million. The Company recognized a foreign exchange transaction loss of $0.4 million and $1.0 million in Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2022, respectively. The Company recognized a foreign exchange transaction gain of $1.0 million in Fiscal 2023. These are recorded in either Cost of sales (excluding depreciation and amortization) or Selling and administrative in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations based on the underlying nature of the transactions giving rise to the gain or loss.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

Revenue includes sales of merchandise and delivery revenue related to merchandise sold. Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is recognized when control of product passes to customers, which for the U.S. eCommerce, Europe eCommerce, Outfitters and Third Party distribution channels is when the merchandise is received by the customer and for the Retail distribution channel is at the time of sale in the store. The Company recognizes revenue, including shipping and handling fees billed to customers, in the amount expected to be received when control of the Company’s products transfers to customers, and is presented net of various forms of promotions, which range from contractually fixed percentage price reductions to sales returns, discounts, and other incentives that may vary in amount. Variable amounts are estimated based on an analysis of historical experience and adjusted as better estimates become available.

The Company generates royalty revenue from licensing the right to use its trademarks to third parties. The licensing agreements generally are exclusive to a product category, selling channel and/or geography, have terms in excess of one year, provide for annual guaranteed minimum royalties and, in most cases, include renewal options. In certain agreements, the licensee pays the Company a fulfillment fee for licensed product sold on the Company’s website and fulfilled from the Company’s distribution center. The trademark royalty revenue and fulfillment fee are included in Net revenue and reported in the Licensing distribution channel.

In exchange for providing these rights, the license agreements require the licensees to pay the Company a trademark royalty based on net sales as defined in the license agreements. The Company recognizes sales-based royalty revenue at the later of (i) when the related sales of the licensed product occur, or (ii) when the performance obligation has been satisfied, when the Company expects the annual guaranteed minimums will be met, where such provisions exist. If a sales-based royalty is not ultimately expected to exceed a contractually guaranteed minimum royalty amount, the minimum is recognized straight-line as revenue over the contractual period, if all other criteria of revenue recognition have been met. In certain licensing agreements, the Company agreed to perform transitional activities, such as marketing, for the licensed products. The Company receives reimbursement for such services at cost. The amount of these reimbursements, which are recorded as a reduction of Selling and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, for Fiscal 2024 was $9.3 million.

The Company excludes from revenue, taxes assessed by governmental authorities, including value-added and other sales-related taxes, that are imposed on and concurrent with revenue-producing activities.

Contract Liabilities

Contract liabilities consist of payments received in advance of the transfer of control to the customer. As products are delivered and control transfers, the Company recognizes the deferred revenue in Net revenue in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The following table summarizes the deferred revenue associated with payments received in advance of the transfer of control to the customer reported in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and amounts recognized through Net revenue for each period presented. The majority of deferred revenue as of January 31, 2025 is expected to be recognized in Net revenue in First Quarter 2025, as products are delivered to customers.

(in thousands)	Fiscal 2024			Fiscal 2023
Deferred revenue beginning of period	$	4,314		$	7,484
Deferred revenue recognized in period		(4,100	)		(7,270	)
Revenue deferred in period		6,370			4,100
Deferred revenue end of period	$	6,584		$	4,314

Revenue from gift cards is recognized when (i) the gift card is redeemed by the customer for merchandise, or (ii) as gift card breakage, an estimate of gift cards which will not be redeemed where the Company does not have a legal obligation to remit the value of the unredeemed gift cards to the relevant jurisdictions. Gift card breakage is recorded within Net revenue in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Prior to their redemption, gift cards are recorded as a liability, included within Accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The liability is estimated based on expected breakage that considers historical patterns of redemption. The following table provides the reconciliation of the contract liability related to gift cards:

(in thousands)	Fiscal 2024			Fiscal 2023
Balance as of beginning of period	$	35,604		$	33,029
Gift cards sold		68,555			66,392
Gift cards redeemed		(64,783	)		(60,374	)
Gift card breakage		(4,630	)		(3,443	)
Balance as of end of period	$	34,746		$	35,604

Refund Liabilities

Refund liabilities, primarily associated with product sales returns and retrospective volume rebates, represent variable consideration and are estimated and recorded as a reduction to Net revenue based on historical experience. As of January 31, 2025 and February 2, 2024, $15.2 million and $21.6 million, respectively, of refund liabilities, primarily associated with estimated product returns, were recorded in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Cost of Sales

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales are comprised principally of the costs of merchandise sold, inbound shipping and handling, duty, warehousing and distribution (including receiving, picking, packing, store delivery and value-added costs), customer shipping and handling costs and physical inventory losses. Depreciation and amortization are not included in the Company’s Cost of sales.

Selling and Administrative Expenses

Selling and Administrative Expenses

Selling and administrative expenses are comprised principally of payroll and benefits costs, marketing, information technology expenses, third-party services, occupancy costs of Company Operated stores and corporate facilities, and other administrative expenses. All stock-based compensation is recorded in Selling and administrative expenses. See Note 5, Stock-Based Compensation.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are based on the estimated future tax effects of differences between the financial and tax basis of assets and liabilities based on currently enacted tax laws. The tax balances and income tax expense recognized are based on management’s interpretation of the tax laws of multiple jurisdictions. Income tax expense also reflects best estimates and assumptions regarding, among other things, the level of future taxable income and tax planning. Future changes in tax laws, changes in projected levels of taxable income, tax planning and adoption and implementation of new accounting standards could impact the effective tax rate and tax balances recorded.

Tax positions are recognized when they are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination. The amount recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is more likely than not to be realized upon settlement. The Company is subject to periodic audits by the United States Internal Revenue Service and other state and local taxing authorities. These audits may challenge certain of the Company’s tax positions such as the timing and amount of income and deductions and the allocation of taxable income to various tax jurisdictions. The Company evaluates its tax positions and establishes liabilities in accordance with the applicable accounting guidance on uncertainty in income taxes. These tax uncertainties are reviewed as facts and circumstances change and are adjusted accordingly. This requires significant management judgment in estimating final outcomes. Interest and penalties are classified as Income tax expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. See Note 11, Income Taxes, for further details.

The Company performed an evaluation over its deferred tax assets and determined that a valuation allowance is considered necessary for certain jurisdictions. See Note 11, Income Taxes, for further details on the valuation allowance.

Self Insurance

Self-Insurance

The Company has a self-insured plan for health and welfare benefits and provides an accrual to cover the obligation. The accrual for the self-insured liability is based on claims filed and an estimate of claims incurred but not yet reported. The Company considers a number of factors, including historical claims information, when determining the amount of the accrual. Costs related to the administration of the plan and related claims are expensed as incurred. Total expenses, net of employee contributions, were $21.8 million, $18.9 million and $17.7 million for Fiscal 2024, Fiscal 2023 and Fiscal 2022, respectively.

The Company also has a self-insured plan for certain costs related to workers’ compensation. The Company obtains third-party insurance coverage to limit exposure to this workers’ compensation self-insured risk.

Retirement Benefit Plan

Retirement Benefit Plan

The Company has a 401(k) retirement plan, which covers most regular employees and allows them to make contributions. The Company also provides a matching contribution on a portion of the employee contributions. Total expenses incurred under this plan were $3.7 million for Fiscal 2024 and $3.9 million for Fiscal 2023 and Fiscal 2022.

Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Other comprehensive income (loss) encompasses all changes in equity other than those arising from transactions with stockholders and is comprised solely of foreign currency translation adjustments. The Company’s foreign subsidiaries use their local currency as their functional currency. Functional currency assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. Dollars using exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, and revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates during the period. Resulting translation gains and losses are reported in other comprehensive income (loss), until the substantial liquidation of a subsidiary, at which time accumulated transactions gains or losses are reclassified into net income. During Fiscal 2023, the Company recognized a net gain of $0.4 million of cumulative foreign currency translation adjustments related to the substantial liquidation of Lands’ End Japan. See Note 8, Lands’ End Japan Closure.

(in thousands)	Fiscal 2024			Fiscal 2023			Fiscal 2022

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation expense for restricted stock units is comprised of both Deferred Awards and Performance Awards. Deferred awards only require each recipient to complete a service period for the awards to be earned. The fair value of Deferred Awards is based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date. Performance awards have, in addition to a service agreement, financial performance criteria or stock performance criteria that must be achieved for the awards to be earned. The Performance Awards, granted in Fiscal 2023 are also subject to a relative total shareholder return (TSR) modifier. The fair value of Performance Awards granted prior to Fiscal 2023, as well as the portion of the Fiscal 2024 Performance Awards with financial performance criteria, are based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date. The fair value for both the Performance Awards granted in Fiscal 2024 with stock performance criteria and the Performance Awards granted in Fiscal 2023 with a relative TSR modifier are based on the Monte Carlo simulation model. Option Awards provide the recipient with the option to purchase a set number of shares at a stated exercise price over the term of the contract, which is ten years for all Option Awards currently outstanding. Options are granted with a strike price equal to the stock price on the date of grant and vest over the requisite service period of the award.

The Company recognizes stock-based compensation cost net of estimated forfeitures and revises the estimated forfeitures in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from the estimates. The Company estimates the forfeiture rate based on historical data as well as expected future behavior. Stock-based compensation is recorded in Selling and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations over the period in which the employee is required to provide service in exchange for the Deferred Awards and Option awards and over the applicable performance period for Performance Awards.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Earnings (Loss) per Share

The numerator for both basic and diluted EPS is net income (loss) attributable to the Company. The denominator for basic EPS is based upon the number of weighted average shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding

during the reporting periods. The denominator for diluted EPS is based upon the number of weighted average shares of the Company’s common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding during the reporting periods using the treasury stock method in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share.

The following table summarizes the components of basic and diluted EPS:

(in thousands)	Fiscal 2024		Fiscal 2023			Fiscal 2022
Net income (loss)	$	6,233	$	(130,684	)	$	(12,530	)
Basic weighted average shares outstanding		31,213		31,970			33,108
Dilutive impact of stock awards		451		—			—
Diluted weighted average shares outstanding		31,664		31,970			33,108
Earnings (loss) per share
Basic	$	0.20	$	(4.09	)	$	(0.38	)
Diluted	$	0.20	$	(4.09	)	$	(0.38	)
Anti-dilutive shares excluded from diluted earnings (loss) per common share calculation		285		1,021			1,186

Stock awards are considered anti-dilutive based on the application of the treasury stock method or in the event of a net loss.

Repurchase of Common Stock

Repurchases of Common Stock

Shares of the Company’s common stock may be repurchased by the Company through open market transactions. The par value of the shares retired was charged against Common stock and the remaining purchase price, including any broker commissions and excise taxes paid, was either (i) allocated between Additional paid-in capital and Retained earnings, or (ii) charged directly against Additional paid-in capital. To the extent the shares are repurchased at a price less than that of initial issuance, or to the extent the Company does not have sufficient reserves in Retained earnings at the time of repurchase, the excess of the purchase price over par value is accounted for entirely as a deduction from Additional paid-in capital. The Company retired all shares that were purchased through the 2024 Share Repurchase Program and the 2022 Share Repurchase Program. See Note 6, Stockholders’ Equity.

As of January 31, 2025, the Company had $117.5 million of federal and state net operating loss (“NOL”) and interest expense carryforwards (generating a $12.2 million deferred tax asset) available to offset future taxable income. The federal carryforwards have an indefinite life. The state NOL carryforwards generally expire between 2025 and 2044 with certain state NOLs and interest expense carryforwards generated after 2017 having indefinite lives. The Company’s foreign subsidiaries had $49.3 million of NOL carryforwards (generating a $14.1 million deferred tax asset) available to offset future taxable income. These foreign NOLs can be carried forward indefinitely, however, a valuation allowance was established since the future utilization of these NOLs is uncertain.

Schedule of Unrecognized Tax Benefits

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending gross amount of unrecognized tax benefits (“UTBs”) is as follows:

(in thousands)	Fiscal 2024			Fiscal 2023			Fiscal 2022

Settlements		(123	)		—			—
Gross UTBs balance at end of period	$	8,998		$	1,141		$	1,297

As of January 31, 2025, the Company had gross UTBs of $9.0 million. Of this amount, $0.8 million would, if recognized, impact its effective tax rate. The remaining liability relates to tax positions for which there are offsetting tax benefits, or the uncertainty was related only to timing. The Company does not expect that UTBs will fluctuate significantly in the next 12 months for tax audit settlements and the expiration of the statute of limitations for certain jurisdictions. Tax years 2021 through 2025 remain open for examination by the Internal Revenue Service as well as various state and foreign jurisdictions.

The Company classifies interest expense and penalties related to UTBs and interest income on tax overpayments as components of income tax expense. As of January 31, 2025, the total amount of interest expense and penalties

recognized on the balance sheet was $0.5 million ($0.4 million net of federal benefit). As of February 2, 2024, the total amount of interest and penalties recognized on the balance sheet was $0.6 million ($0.5 million net of federal benefit). The total amount of net interest expense recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations was insignificant for all periods presented. The Company files income tax returns in both the United States and various foreign jurisdictions.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Segment Reporting, CODM, Profit (Loss) Measure, How Used, Description	The CODM assesses segment performance based on variable profit, which is defined as net revenue minus cost of sales and variable selling expenses to evaluate segment profitability and make decisions about resource allocations. The Company’s CODM monitors actual segment variable profit results relative to operating plan and forecast to assess the performance of the business and allocate resources. The CODM does not utilize segment asset information to evaluate performance and make resource allocation decisions, and thus such disclosures are not provided.
