Leases

6 Months Ended

Jul. 01, 2023

The Company leases its retail, office and manufacturing space under operating leases which, in addition to the minimum lease payments, may require payment of a proportionate share of the real estate taxes and certain building operating expenses. While the Company’s local market development approach generally results in long-term participation in given markets, the retail store leases generally provide for an initial lease term of five to 10 years. The Company’s office and manufacturing leases provide for an initial lease term of up to 15 years. In addition, the Company’s mall-based retail store leases may require payment of variable rent based on net sales in excess of certain thresholds. Certain leases may contain options to extend the term of the original lease. The exercise of lease renewal options is at the Company’s sole discretion. Lease options are included in the lease term only if exercise is reasonably certain at lease commencement. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees. The Company also leases vehicles and certain equipment under operating leases with an initial lease term of three to six years.

The Company’s operating lease costs include facility, vehicle and equipment lease costs, but exclude variable lease costs. Operating lease costs are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, after consideration of rent escalations and rent holidays. The lease term for purposes of the calculation begins on the earlier of the lease

commencement date or the date the Company takes possession of the property. During lease renewal negotiations that extend beyond the original lease term, the Company estimates straight-line rent expense based on current market conditions. Variable lease costs are recorded when it is probable the cost has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated.

At July 1, 2023, the Company’s finance right-of-use assets and lease liabilities were not significant.
