The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared from our records and, in our senior leadership team’s opinion, include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly state our financial position as of July 30, 2022, and the results of operations for the three and six months ended July 30, 2022 and July 31, 2021. Our current fiscal year, which consists of 52 weeks, ends on January 28, 2023 (“fiscal 2022”).

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

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

We have assessed various accounting estimates and other matters, including those that require consideration of forecasted financial information, in context of the unknown future impacts of the novel coronavirus disease (“COVID-19” or “the pandemic”) using information that is reasonably available to us at this time. The accounting estimates and other matters we have assessed include, but were not limited to, sales return reserve, inventory reserve, allowance for doubtful accounts, goodwill, and intangible and other long-lived assets. Our current assessment of these estimates is included in our condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended July 30, 2022. As additional information becomes available to us, our future assessment of these estimates, including our expectations at the time regarding the duration, scope and severity of the pandemic, as well as other factors, could materially and adversely impact our condensed consolidated financial statements in future reporting periods.

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2022 (the “2021 Form 10-K”).

The results of operations for the three and six months ended July 30, 2022 and July 31, 2021 presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year. Our business, like the businesses of retailers generally, is subject to uncertainty surrounding the financial impact of the pandemic and other factors as discussed in Macro-Economic Factors and COVID-19 Pandemic below.

Macro-Economic Factors and COVID-19 Pandemic

There are a number of macro-economic factors and uncertainties affecting the overall business climate as well as our business, including increased inflation and rising interest rates. These factors may have a number of adverse effects on macro-economic conditions and markets in which we operate, with the potential for an economic recession and a sustained downturn in the housing market. Factors such as a slowdown in the housing market or negative trends in stock market prices could have a negative impact on demand for our products.

The COVID-19 pandemic continues to cause challenges in certain aspects of our business operations primarily related to our supply chain, including delays in our receipt of products from vendors, which have affected our ability to convert demand into revenues at normal historic rates. While our performance during the pandemic demonstrates the desirability of our exclusive products, we may see consumer spending patterns shift away from spending on the home and home-related categories toward travel and leisure and other areas.

Our decisions regarding the sources and uses of capital will continue to reflect and adapt to changes in market conditions and our business including further developments with respect to macro-economic factors and the pandemic. For more information, refer to the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our 2021 Form 10-K.

NOTE 2—RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

New Accounting Standards or Updates Adopted

Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity

In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update 2020-06—Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity (“ASU 2020-06”). ASU 2020-06 simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts in an entity’s own equity. Specifically, ASU 2020-06 removes the separation models for convertible debt with a cash conversion feature or convertible instruments with a beneficial conversion feature. As a result, after adopting ASU 2020-06’s guidance, we no longer separately present in equity an embedded conversion feature of such debt. Instead, we account for a convertible debt instrument wholly as debt unless (i) a convertible instrument contains features that require bifurcation as a derivative or (ii) a convertible debt instrument was issued at a substantial premium. Additionally, ASU 2020-06 removes certain conditions for equity classification related to contracts in an entity’s own equity (e.g., warrants) and amends certain guidance related to the computation of earnings per share for convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity.

We adopted ASU 2020-06 in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 using a modified retrospective transition method. Accordingly, the cumulative effect of the adoption on our opening fiscal 2022 condensed consolidated balance sheets was as follows:

Reference Rate Reform

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04—Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (“ASU 2020-04”). In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01—Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope, (“ASU 2021-01” and, together with ASU 2020-04, the “ASUs”). The ASUs provide optional expedients and exceptions, if certain criteria are met, for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by the expected market transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates, such as the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). These transactions include contract modifications, hedge accounting, and the sale or transfer of debt securities classified as held-to-maturity. The primary contracts for which we currently use LIBOR include our asset based credit facility and certain term loan debt arrangements. The guidance was effective upon issuance and allows entities to adopt the amendments on a prospective basis through December 31, 2022. All new arrangements are using alternative reference rates and we are evaluating the impact of adoption on our existing contracts.

NOTE 5—EQUITY METHOD INVESTMENTS

Equity method investments represent our membership interests in three privately-held limited liability companies in Aspen, Colorado (each, an “Aspen LLC” and collectively, the “Aspen LLCs” or the “equity method investments”) which were formed during fiscal 2020 for the purpose of acquiring, developing, operating and selling certain real estate projects in Aspen, Colorado. We hold a 50 percent membership interest in two of the Aspen LLCs and a 70 percent interest in the third Aspen LLC. As we have the ability to exercise significant influence over the Aspen LLCs, but do not have a controlling financial interest in the Aspen LLCs, we account for these investments using the equity method of accounting.

As of July 30, 2022 and January 29, 2022, $35 million and $8.4 million, respectively, of promissory notes receivable, inclusive of accrued interest, are outstanding with the managing member or entities affiliated with the managing member for the Aspen LLCs, which promissory notes are included in prepaid expense and other current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Promissory notes related specifically to the Aspen LLCs are expected to be settled in cash and not converted into additional equity investment in the Aspen LLCs. Certain of the promissory notes outstanding as of July 30, 2022 are related to other real estate joint ventures with entities affiliated with the managing member and such promissory notes are expected to be converted in additional investments in future privately-held limited liability companies for real estate development activities related to our Gallery transformation global expansion strategies. We have made in excess of $100 million in capital contributions to the Aspen LLCs as contractually required. Our maximum exposure to loss with respect to these real estate joint ventures that are accounted for under the equity method is the carrying value of equity capital contributed to the equity method investments as of July 30, 2022.

During the three months ended July 30, 2022 and July 31, 2021, we recorded our proportionate share of equity method investments losses of $2.8 million and $2.5 million, respectively, which is included in the condensed consolidated statements of income and a corresponding decrease to the carrying value of equity method investments on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. During the six months ended July 30, 2022 and July 31, 2021, we recorded our proportionate share of equity method investments losses of $4.2 million and $4.6 million, respectively. During the three and six months ended July 30, 2022, we did not receive any distributions or have any undistributed earnings of equity method investments.

Contract Liabilities

We defer revenue associated with merchandise delivered via the home-delivery channel. We expect that substantially all of the deferred revenue and customer deposits as of July 30, 2022 will be recognized within the next six months as the performance obligations are satisfied. Deferred revenue also includes the unrecognized portion of the annual RH Members Program fee. New membership fees are recorded as deferred revenue when collected from customers and recognized as revenue based on expected product revenues over the annual membership period, based on historical trends of sales to members. Membership renewal fees are recorded as deferred revenue when collected from customers and are recognized as revenue on a straight-line basis over the membership period, or one year.

In addition, we defer revenue when cash payments are received in advance of performance for unsatisfied obligations related to our gift cards. During the three months ended July 30, 2022 and July 31, 2021, we recognized $6.0 million and $4.9 million, respectively, of revenue related to previous deferrals related to our gift cards. During the six months ended July 30, 2022 and July 31, 2021, we recognized $11 million and $9.8 million, respectively, of revenue related to previous deferrals related to our gift cards.

Build-to-Suit Asset

During the second quarter of fiscal 2021, we opened the Dallas Design Gallery. During the construction period of this Design Gallery, we were the “deemed owner” for accounting purposes and classified the construction costs as build-to-suit asset within property & equipment—net on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Upon construction completion and lease commencement, we performed a sale-leaseback analysis and determined that we could not derecognize the build-to-suit asset. Therefore, the asset remains classified as a build-to-suit asset within property and equipment—net and is depreciated over the term of the useful life of the asset.

NOTE 9—CONVERTIBLE SENIOR NOTES

In June 2018, we issued in a private offering $300 million principal amount of 0.00% convertible senior notes due 2023 and issued an additional $35 million principal amount in connection with the overallotment option granted to the initial purchasers as part of the offering (collectively, the “2023 Notes”). In September 2019, we issued in a private offering $350 million principal amount of 0.00% convertible senior notes due 2024 (the “2024 Notes” and, together with the 2023 Notes, the “Convertible Senior Notes” or the “Notes”). Refer to Note 12—Convertible Senior Notes in our consolidated financial statements in our 2021 Form 10-K for further information and terms of the Notes, including the accounting policies related to the Notes that were in effect through fiscal 2021. In connection with our adoption of ASU 2020-06 in the first quarter of fiscal 2022, we recombined the previously outstanding equity component, which resulted in an increase in the balance of convertible debt outstanding.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2022, we entered into agreements with certain financial institutions (collectively, the “Counterparties”) to repurchase all of the warrants issued in connection with the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes at an aggregate purchase price of $184 million and $203 million, respectively, subject to adjustment for a settlement feature based on pricing formulations linked to the trading price of our common stock over a volume weighted-average price measurement period of two or three days. Upon entering into these agreements, the warrants were reclassified from stockholders’ equity to current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, and accordingly, we recognized a corresponding net loss on the fair value adjustment of the warrants of $4.2 million, which is classified within other expense—net in the condensed consolidated statements of income. Upon settlement of these agreements in April 2022, we paid an aggregate of $391 million in cash to terminate the warrants.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2022, we entered into agreements with the Counterparties to terminate all of the convertible note bond hedges issued in connection with the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes to receive an aggregate closing price of $56 million and $180 million, respectively, subject to adjustment for a settlement feature based on pricing formulations linked to the trading price of our common stock over a three day volume weighted-average price measurement period. Upon entering into these agreements, the bond hedges were reclassified from stockholders’ equity to current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, and accordingly, we recognized a corresponding loss on the fair value adjustment of the settlement feature of $4.3 million, which is classified within other expense—net in the condensed consolidated statements of income. Upon settlement of these agreements in April 2022, we received an aggregate of $232 million in cash for the termination of the bond hedges.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2022, we entered into individual privately negotiated transactions with a limited number of sophisticated investors that were holders of the 2023 Notes and/or the 2024 Notes to repurchase in cash $45 million and $135 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes, respectively (the “Notes Repurchase”). The Notes Repurchase provided for an estimated settlement cost of $325 million, subject to adjustment to the final settlement cost for an embedded feature based on pricing formulations linked to the trading price of our common stock over a five day volatility weighted-average price measurement period that ended on April 29, 2022. Upon execution of these agreements, we determined that we had modified the debt substantially and applied an extinguishment accounting model. Accordingly, we derecognized the aggregate principal amount of $180 million of the Convertible Senior Notes related to the extinguishment of such notes, and subsequently recognized a new financing liability with a fair value of $325 million. An embedded derivative related to the conversion feature was bifurcated from the new financing liability and separately recognized with an initial fair value of $278 million, with the remaining $47 million classified as debt and recognized at its amortized cost basis. Accordingly, we recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $146 million upon the execution of these agreements, inclusive of acceleration of amortization of debt issuance costs of $1.0 million. Upon the completion of the price measurement period in April 2022, a total of $314 million was due to the holders, representing the combined carrying value of the debt liability of $47 million, as well as the fair value of the bifurcated embedded equity derivative of $267 million. Accordingly, we recognized a gain on the fair value adjustment of the bifurcated embedded equity derivative of $11 million, which is classified within other expense—net in the condensed consolidated statements of income. The resulting debt liability and bifurcated embedded equity derivative were settled in full for $314 million in cash upon closing of the Notes Repurchase on May 3, 2022.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2022, we entered into additional individual privately negotiated transactions with a limited number of sophisticated investors that were holders of the 2023 Notes and/or the 2024 Notes to repurchase in cash $18 million and $39 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes, respectively (the “Additional Notes Repurchase”). The Additional Notes Repurchase provided for an estimated settlement cost of $80 million, subject to adjustment to the final settlement cost for an embedded feature based on pricing formulations linked to the trading price of our common stock over a one day volatility weighted-average price measurement period occurring in July 2022. Upon execution of these agreements, we determined that we had modified the debt substantially and applied an extinguishment accounting model. Accordingly, we derecognized the aggregate principal amount of $57 million of the Convertible Senior Notes related to the extinguishment of such notes, and subsequently recognized a new financing liability with a fair value of $25 million. An embedded derivative related to the conversion feature was bifurcated from the new financing liability and separately recognized with an initial fair value of $55 million. We recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $23 million upon the execution of these agreements, inclusive of acceleration of amortization of debt issuance costs of $0.3 million. Upon the remeasurement of the amount owed to the holders in terms of the embedded feature, a total of $82 million was paid in cash to the holders, representing the combined carrying value of the financing liability of $25 million, as well as the fair value of the bifurcated embedded equity derivative upon settlement of $57 million. Accordingly, we recognized a loss on the fair value adjustment of the bifurcated embedded equity derivative of $1.5 million, which is classified within other expense—net in the condensed consolidated statements of income.

$350 million 0.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2024

Prior to June 15, 2024, the 2024 Notes are convertible only under the following circumstances: (1) during any calendar quarter commencing after December 31, 2019, if, for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during the 30 consecutive trading day period ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter, the last reported sale price of our common stock on such trading day is greater than or equal to 130% of the applicable conversion price on such trading day; (2) during the five consecutive business day period after any ten consecutive trading day period in which, for each day of that period, the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of 2024 Notes for such trading day was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of our common stock and the applicable conversion rate on such trading day; or (3) upon the occurrence of specified corporate transactions. The first condition was satisfied from the calendar quarter ended September 30, 2020 through the calendar quarter ended March 31, 2022. However, this condition was not met for the calendar quarter ended June 30, 2022 and, as a result, the 2024 Notes were not convertible as of June 30, 2022. On and after June 15, 2024, until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders may convert all or a portion of their 2024 Notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances. Upon conversion, the 2024 Notes will be settled, at our election, in cash, shares of our common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock. If the Company has not delivered a notice of its election of settlement method prior to the final conversion period, it will be deemed to have elected combination settlement with a dollar amount per note to be received upon conversion of $1,000.

During the six months ended July 30, 2022, holders of $3.6 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2024 Notes elected to exercise the early conversion option and we elected to settle such conversions using combination settlement comprised of cash equal to the principal amount of the 2024 Notes converted and shares of our common stock for the remaining conversion value. During the six months ended July 30, 2022, we paid $3.6 million in cash and delivered 9,760 shares of common stock to settle the early conversion of these 2024 Notes. We also received 9,760 shares of common stock from the exercise of a portion of the convertible bond hedge we purchased concurrently with the issuance of the 2024 Notes.

The remaining liability for the 2024 Notes is classified as a non-current obligation on our condensed consolidated balance sheets since the settlement of the outstanding 2024 Notes will be made, at our election, in cash, shares of our common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock.

$335 million 0.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2023

Prior to March 15, 2023, the 2023 Notes are convertible only under the following circumstances: (1) during any calendar quarter commencing after September 30, 2018, if, for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during the 30 consecutive trading day period ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter, the last reported sale price of our common stock on such trading day is greater than or equal to 130% of the applicable conversion price on such trading day; (2) during the five consecutive business day period after any ten consecutive trading day period in which, for each day of that period, the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of 2023 Notes for such trading day was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of our common stock and the applicable conversion rate on such trading day; or (3) upon the occurrence of specified corporate transactions. The first condition was satisfied from the calendar quarter ended September 30, 2020 through the calendar quarter ended June 30, 2022 and, accordingly, holders were eligible to convert their 2023 Notes beginning in the calendar quarter ended December 31, 2020 and are currently eligible to convert their 2023 Notes during the calendar quarter ending September 30, 2022. On and after March 15, 2023, until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders may convert all or a portion of their 2023 Notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances. Upon conversion, the 2023 Notes will be settled, at our election, in cash, shares of our common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock. If the Company has not delivered a notice of its election of settlement method prior to the final conversion period, it will be deemed to have elected combination settlement with a dollar amount per note to be received upon conversion of $1,000.

During the six months ended July 30, 2022, holders of $9.4 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2023 Notes elected to exercise the early conversion option and we elected to settle such conversions using combination settlement comprised of cash equal to the principal amount of the 2023 Notes converted and shares of our common stock for the remaining conversion value. During the six months ended July 30, 2022, we paid $9.4 million in cash and delivered 27,214 shares of common stock to settle the early conversion of these 2023 Notes. We also received 27,208 shares of common stock from the exercise of a portion of the convertible bond hedge we purchased concurrently with the issuance of the 2023 Notes, and therefore, on a net basis issued 6 shares of our common stock in respect to such settlement of the converted 2023 Notes.

The remaining liability for the 2023 Notes is classified as a current obligation on our condensed consolidated balance sheets since the settlement of the outstanding 2023 Notes is due on June 15, 2023. The settlement of additional early conversions received, if any, will be made, at our election, in cash, shares of our common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock.

Asset Based Credit Facility & Term Loan Facilities

On August 3, 2011, Restoration Hardware, Inc. (“RHI”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of RH, along with its Canadian subsidiary, Restoration Hardware Canada, Inc., entered into the Ninth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (as amended prior to June 28, 2017, the “Original Credit Agreement”) by and among RHI, Restoration Hardware Canada, Inc., certain other subsidiaries of RH named therein as borrowers or guarantors, the lenders party thereto and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent (the “ABL Agent”).

On June 28, 2017, RHI entered into the Eleventh Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (as amended prior to July 29, 2021, the “11^th A&R Credit Agreement”) by and among RHI, Restoration Hardware Canada, Inc., certain other subsidiaries of RH named therein as borrowers or guarantors, the lenders party thereto and the ABL Agent, which amended and restated the Original Credit Agreement.

On July 29, 2021, RHI entered into the Twelfth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (as amended, the “ABL Credit Agreement”) by and among RHI, Restoration Hardware Canada, Inc., certain other subsidiaries of RH named therein as borrowers or guarantors, the lenders party thereto and the ABL Agent, which amended and restated the 11^th A&R Credit Agreement. The ABL Credit Agreement has a revolving line of credit with initial availability of up to $600 million, of which $10 million is available to Restoration Hardware Canada, Inc., and includes a $300 million accordion feature under which the revolving line of credit may be expanded by agreement of the parties from $600 million to up to $900 million if and to the extent the lenders revise their credit commitments to encompass a larger facility. The ABL Credit Agreement provides that the $300 million accordion, or a portion thereof, may be added as a first-in, last-out term loan facility if and to the extent the lenders revise their credit commitments for such facility. The ABL Credit Agreement further provides that the borrowers may request a European sub-credit facility under the revolving line of credit or under the accordion feature for borrowing by certain European subsidiaries of RH if certain conditions set out in the ABL Credit Agreement are met. The maturity date of the ABL Credit Agreement is July 29, 2026.

The availability of credit at any given time under the ABL Credit Agreement will be constrained by the terms and conditions of the ABL Credit Agreement, including the amount of collateral available, a borrowing base formula based upon numerous factors, including the value of eligible inventory and eligible accounts receivable, and other restrictions contained in the ABL Credit Agreement. All obligations under the ABL Credit Agreement are secured by substantial assets of the loan parties, including inventory, receivables and certain types of intellectual property.

Borrowings under the revolving line of credit (other than swing line loans, which are subject to interest at the base rate) bear interest, at the borrower’s option, at either the base rate or LIBOR subject to a 0.00% LIBOR floor (or, in the case of the Canadian borrowings, the “BA Rate” or the “Canadian Prime Rate”, as such terms are defined in the ABL Credit Agreement, for the Canadian borrowings denominated in Canadian dollars, or the “U.S. Index Rate”, as such term is defined in the ABL Credit Agreement, or LIBOR for Canadian borrowings denominated in United States dollars) plus an applicable interest rate margin, in each case. The ABL Credit Agreement contains customary provisions addressing the transition from LIBOR.

The ABL Credit Agreement contains various restrictive and affirmative covenants, including required financial reporting, limitations on granting certain liens, limitations on making certain loans or investments, limitations on incurring additional debt, restricted payment limitations limiting the payment of dividends and certain other transactions and distributions, limitations on transactions with affiliates, along with other restrictions and limitations similar to those frequently found in credit agreements of a similar type and size.


22 \| 2022 SECOND QUARTER FORM 10-Q	PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Table of Contents

The ABL Credit Agreement does not contain any significant financial ratio covenants or coverage ratio covenants other than a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio (“FCCR”) covenant based on the ratio of (i) consolidated EBITDA to the amount of (ii) debt service costs plus certain other amounts, including dividends and distributions and prepayments of debt as defined in the ABL Credit Agreement (the “FCCR Covenant”). The FCCR Covenant only applies in certain limited circumstances, including when the unused availability under the ABL Credit Agreement drops below the greater of (A) $40 million and (B) an amount based on 10% of the total borrowing availability at the time. The FCCR Covenant ratio is set at 1.0 and measured on a trailing twelve-month basis. As of July 30, 2022, RHI was in compliance with the FCCR Covenant.

The ABL Credit Agreement requires a daily sweep of all cash receipts and collections to prepay the loans under the agreement while (i) an event of default exists or (ii) when the unused availability under the ABL Credit Agreement drops below the greater of (A) $40 million and (B) an amount based on 10% of the total borrowing availability at the time.

The ABL Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, events of defaults and other customary terms and conditions for an asset based credit facility.

The availability of the revolving line of credit at any given time under the ABL Credit Agreement is limited by the terms and conditions of the ABL Credit Agreement, including the amount of collateral available, a borrowing base formula based upon numerous factors, including the value of eligible inventory and eligible accounts receivable, and other restrictions contained in the ABL Credit Agreement. As a result, actual borrowing availability under the revolving line of credit could be less than the stated amount of the revolving line of credit (as reduced by the actual borrowings and outstanding letters of credit under the revolving line of credit). As of July 30, 2022, the amount available for borrowing under the revolving line of credit under the ABL Credit Agreement was $528 million, net of $25 million in outstanding letters of credit.

Term Loan Credit Agreement

On October 20, 2021, RHI entered into a Term Loan Credit Agreement (the “Term Loan Credit Agreement”) by and among RHI as the borrower, the lenders party thereto and Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent and collateral agent (in such capacities, the “Term Agent”) with respect to an initial term loan (the “Term Loan B”) in an aggregate principal amount equal to $2,000,000,000 with a maturity date of October 20, 2028.

The Term Loan B bears interest at an annual rate based on LIBOR subject to a 0.50% LIBOR floor plus an interest rate margin of 2.50% (with a stepdown of the interest rate margin if RHI achieves a specified public corporate family rating). LIBOR is a floating interest rate that resets periodically during the life of the Term Loan B. At the date of borrowing, the interest rate was set at the LIBOR floor of 0.50% plus 2.50% and the Term Loan B was issued at a discount of 0.50% to face value. The Term Loan Credit Agreement contains customary provisions addressing future transition from LIBOR.

On May 13, 2022, RHI entered into a 2022 Incremental Amendment (the “2022 Incremental Amendment”) with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, amending the Term Loan Credit Agreement (the Term Loan Credit Agreement as amended by the 2022 Incremental Amendment, the “Amended Term Loan Credit Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the 2022 Incremental Amendment, RHI incurred incremental term loans (the “Term Loan B-2”) in an aggregate principal amount equal to $500 million with a maturity date of October 20, 2028. The Term Loan B-2 constitutes a separate class from the Term Loan B under the Term Loan Credit Agreement.

The Term Loan B-2 bears interest at an annual rate based on the SOFR subject to a 0.50% SOFR floor plus an interest rate margin of 3.25% plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.10%. Other than the terms relating to the Term Loan B-2, the terms of the Amended Term Loan Credit Agreement remain substantially the same as the terms of the existing Term Loan Credit Agreement, including representations and warranties, covenants and events of default.

All obligations under the Term Loan B are guaranteed by certain domestic subsidiaries of RHI. Further, RHI and such subsidiaries have granted a security interest in substantially all of their assets (subject to customary and other exceptions) to secure the Term Loan B. Substantially all of the collateral securing the Term Loan B also secures the loans and other credit extensions under the ABL Credit Agreement. On October 20, 2021, in connection with the Term Loan Credit Agreement, RHI and certain other subsidiaries of RH party to the Term Loan Credit Agreement and the ABL Credit Agreement, as the case may be, entered into an Intercreditor Agreement (the “Intercreditor Agreement”) with the Term Agent and the ABL Agent. The Intercreditor Agreement establishes various customary inter-lender terms, including, without limitation, with respect to priority of liens, permitted actions by each party, application of proceeds, exercise of remedies in case of default, releases of liens and certain limitations on the amendment of the ABL Credit Agreement and the Term Loan Credit Agreement without the consent of the other parties.

Table of Contents

The borrowings under the Term Loan Credit Agreement may be prepaid in whole or in part at any time, subject to a prepayment premium of 1.0% in connection with any repricing transaction within the six months following the closing date of the Term Loan Credit Agreement.

The Term Loan Credit Agreement contains various restrictive and affirmative covenants, including required financial reporting, limitations on granting certain liens, limitations on making certain loans or investments, limitations on incurring additional debt, restricted payment limitations limiting the payment of dividends and certain other transactions and distributions, limitations on transactions with affiliates, along with other restrictions and limitations similar to those frequently found in credit agreements of a similar type and size, but provides for unlimited exceptions in the case of incurring indebtedness, granting of liens and making investments, dividend payments, and payments of material junior indebtedness, subject to satisfying specified leverage ratio tests.

The Term Loan Credit Agreement does not contain a financial maintenance covenant.

The Term Loan Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, events of defaults and other customary terms and conditions for a term loan credit agreement.

Equipment Loan Facility

On September 5, 2017, RHI entered into a Master Loan and Security Agreement with Banc of America Leasing & Capital, LLC (“BAL”) pursuant to which BAL and RHI agreed that BAL would finance certain equipment of ours from time to time, with each such equipment financing to be evidenced by an equipment security note setting forth the terms for each particular equipment loan. Each equipment loan is secured by a purchase money security interest in the financed equipment. The maturity dates of the equipment security notes varied, but generally had a maturity of three or four years and required us to make monthly installment payments. As of July 30, 2022, one equipment security note remains outstanding with a maturity date in April 2023.

NOTE 11—FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair Value Measurements—Recurring

Amounts reported as cash and equivalents, receivables, and accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of activity within these accounts. The estimated fair value of the asset based credit facility approximates cost as the interest rate associated with the facility is variable and resets frequently (Level 2).

The estimated fair value and carrying value of the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes and the Term Loan Credit Agreement were as follows:

The carrying value of the convertible senior notes as of July 30, 2022 represents the principal amount of the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes following our adoption of ASU 2020-06 in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 (refer to Note 2—Recently Issued Accounting Standards). The carrying value as of January 29, 2022 represents the principal amount less the equity component of the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes classified in stockholders’ equity, which was required prior to the adoption of ASU 2020-06. The carrying value in both periods excludes the discounts upon original issuance, discounts and commissions payable to the initial purchasers and third party offering costs, as applicable. The carrying values of the Term Loan B and Term Loan B-2 represent the outstanding amount under each class excluding discounts upon original issuance and third party offering costs.

Table of Contents

The fair value of each of the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes was determined based on inputs that are observable in the market or that could be derived from, or corroborated with, observable market data, including the trading price of our convertible notes, when available, our stock price and interest rates based on similar debt issued by parties with credit ratings similar to ours (Level 2). The estimated fair values of the Term Loan B and Term Loan B-2 were derived from discounted cash flows using risk-adjusted rates (Level 2).

Fair Value Measurements—Non-Recurring

The fair value of the Waterworks reporting unit tradename was determined based on unobservable (Level 3) inputs and valuation techniques.

The fair value of the real estate assets associated with our investment in the Aspen LLCs in fiscal 2020, as discussed in Note 5—Equity Method Investments, were determined based on unobservable (Level 3) inputs and valuation techniques.

Prior to the adoption of ASU 2020-06 and through fiscal 2021, upon settlement of our convertible senior notes, including the settlements in which holders of the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes elected to exercise the early conversion option, we recognized a gain or loss on extinguishment of debt in the condensed consolidated statements of income, which represented the difference between the carrying value and fair value of the convertible senior notes immediately prior to the settlement date. The fair value of each of the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes related to the settlement of the early conversions was determined based on inputs that are observable in the market or that could be derived from, or corroborated with, observable market data, including the trading price of our convertible notes, when available, our common stock price and interest rates based on similar debt issued by parties with credit ratings similar to ours (Level 2).

NOTE 12—INCOME TAXES

We recorded income tax expense of $56 million and $3.0 million in the three months ended July 30, 2022 and July 31, 2021, respectively. We recorded an income tax benefit of $107 million and income tax expense of $45 million in the six months ended July 30, 2022 and July 31, 2021, respectively. The effective tax rate was 31.6% and 1.3% in the three months ended July 30, 2022 and July 31, 2021, respectively. The effective tax rate was (49.6)% and 11.1% in the six months ended July 30, 2022 and July 31, 2021, respectively. The increase in our effective tax rate for the three months ended July 30, 2022 as compared to the three months ended July 31, 2021 is primarily attributable to significantly lower net excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation and amounts related to the extinguishment of debt in the three months ended July 30, 2022. The decrease in our effective tax rate for the six months ended July 30, 2022 as compared to the six months ended July 31, 2021 is primarily attributable to significantly higher net excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation in the six months ended July 30, 2022.

As of July 30, 2022, we had $8.6 million of unrecognized tax benefits, of which $7.9 million would reduce income tax expense and the effective tax rate, if recognized. The remaining unrecognized tax benefits would offset other deferred tax assets, if recognized. As of July 30, 2022, we had $5.9 million of exposures related to unrecognized tax benefits that are expected to decrease in the next 12 months.

(1)	Effective the first quarter of fiscal 2022 upon adoption of ASU 2020-06, the loss on extinguishment of debt related to convertible securities is added back to net income to calculate net income per share.

(2)

We adopted ASU 2020-06 in the first quarter of fiscal 2022, and the adoption requires the dilutive impact of the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes for diluted net income per share purposes to be determined under the if-converted method which assumes share settlement of the entire convertible debt instrument. Prior to adoption of ASU 2020-06, we applied the treasury stock method to determine the dilutive impact of the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes for diluted net income per share purposes.

The 2023 Notes and the 2024 Notes have an impact on our dilutive share count beginning at stock prices of $193.65 per share and $211.40 per share, respectively. The warrants associated with the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes had an impact on our dilutive share count beginning at stock prices of $309.84 per share and $338.24 per share, respectively. The warrants associated with the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes were repurchased in April 2022 and, as a result, no warrant instruments are outstanding as of July 30, 2022. Accordingly, the warrants have no impact on our dilutive shares post-repurchase. Refer to Note 9—Convertible Senior Notes.

The following number of options and restricted stock units were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive:

NOTE 14—SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM AND SHARE RETIREMENT

Share Repurchase Program

In 2018, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program. On June 2, 2022, the Board of Directors authorized an additional $2.0 billion for the purchase of shares of our outstanding common stock, increasing the total authorized size of the share repurchase program to $2,450 million (the “Share Repurchase Program”).

During the second quarter of fiscal 2022, we repurchased 1,000,000 shares of our common stock under the Share Repurchase Program at an average price of $254.72 per share, for an aggregate repurchase amount of approximately $255 million. As of July 30, 2022, $2,195 million remains available for future share repurchases under this program.

Share Retirement

During the second quarter of fiscal 2022, we retired 1,000,000 shares of common stock related to shares we repurchased under the Share Repurchase Program. As a result of this retirement, we reclassified a total of $255 million from treasury stock to additional paid-in capital on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and condensed consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity as of July 30, 2022.

NOTE 15—STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

We recorded stock-based compensation expense of $11 million and $10 million during the three months ended July 30, 2022 and July 31, 2021, respectively, which is included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of income. We recorded stock-based compensation expense of $24 million and $25 million during the six months ended July 30, 2022 and July 31, 2021, respectively. No stock-based compensation cost has been capitalized in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

On October 18, 2020, our Board of Directors granted Mr. Friedman an option to purchase 700,000 shares of our common stock with an exercise price equal to $385.30 per share under the 2012 Stock Incentive Plan. Refer to Note 18—Stock-Based Compensation in the 2021 Form 10-K. The option will result in aggregate non-cash stock compensation expense of $174 million, of which $4.3 million and $5.8 million was recognized during the three months ended July 30, 2022 and July 31, 2021, respectively, and $10 million and $12 million was recognized during the six months ended July 30, 2022 and July 31, 2021, respectively (which is included in the stock-based compensation expense recorded during the three and six months ended July 30, 2022 and July 31, 2021 noted above).

NOTE 16—COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Commitments

We had no material off balance sheet commitments as of July 30, 2022.

Contingencies

We are subject to contingencies, including in connection with lawsuits, claims, investigations and other legal proceedings incident to the ordinary course of our business. These disputes are increasing in number as we expand our business and provide new product and service offerings, such as restaurants and hospitality, and as we enter new markets and legal jurisdictions and face increased complexity related to compliance and regulatory requirements. In addition, we are subject to governmental and regulatory examinations, information requests, and investigations from time to time at the state and federal levels.

With respect to such matters and others, we review the need for any loss contingency reserves and establish reserves when, in the opinion of our senior leadership team, it is probable that a matter would result in liability, and the amount of loss, if any, can be reasonably estimated. In view of the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of those matters, particularly in cases in which claimants seek substantial or indeterminate damages, it is not possible to determine whether a liability has been incurred or to reasonably estimate the ultimate or minimum amount of that liability until the case is close to resolution, in which case no reserve is established until that time. When and to the extent that we do establish a reserve, there can be no assurance that any such recorded liability for estimated losses will be for the appropriate amount, and actual losses could be higher or lower than what we accrue from time to time. Although we believe that the ultimate resolution of our current legal proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements, the outcome of legal matters is subject to inherent uncertainty.

Certain legal proceedings that we currently face involve various class-action allegations regarding employment practices, including under state wage-and-hour laws. We have faced similar litigation in the past. Due to the inherent difficulty of predicting the course of legal actions related to these class-action allegations, such as the eventual scope, duration or outcome, we are unable to estimate the amount or range of any potential loss that could result from an unfavorable outcome arising from such matters.

Although we are self-insured or maintain deductibles in the United States for workers’ compensation, general liability and product liability up to predetermined amounts, above which third party insurance applies, depending on the facts and circumstances of the underlying claims, coverage under our insurance policies may not be available. Even if we believe coverage does apply under our insurance programs, our insurance carriers may dispute coverage based on the underlying facts and circumstances.


28 \| 2022 SECOND QUARTER FORM 10-Q	PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Table of Contents

As a result, the outcome of any matters in which we are involved could result in unexpected expenses and liability that could adversely affect our operations. In addition, any claims against us, whether meritorious or not, could be time consuming, result in costly litigation, require significant amounts of our senior leadership team’s time, result in the diversion of significant operational resources, and require changes to our business operations, policies and practices.

NOTE 17—SEGMENT REPORTING

We define reportable and operating segments on the same basis that we use to evaluate our performance internally by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (the “CODM”), which we have determined is our Chief Executive Officer. We have three operating segments: RH Segment, Waterworks and Real Estate Development. The RH Segment and Waterworks operating segments (the “retail operating segments”) include all sales channels accessed by our customers, including sales through retail locations and outlets, websites, Source Books, and the commercial channel. The Real Estate Development segment represents operations associated with our equity method investments (refer to Note 5—Equity Method Investments).

The retail operating segments are strategic business units that offer products for the home furnishings customer. While RH Segment and Waterworks have a shared senior leadership team and customer base, we have determined that their results cannot be aggregated as they do not share similar economic characteristics, as well as due to other quantitative factors.

Segment Information

We use operating income to evaluate segment profitability for the retail operating segments and allocate resources. Operating income is defined as net income before interest expense—net, loss on extinguishment of debt, other expense—net, income tax expense (benefit) and our share of equity method investments losses. Segment operating income excludes (i) employer payroll tax expense related to the option exercise by Mr. Friedman, (ii) asset impairments, (iii) the amortization of the non-cash compensation charge related to the fully vested option grant made to Mr. Friedman in October 2020, (iv) professional fees related to the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes transactions (refer to Note 9—Convertible Senior Notes), (v) compensation settlements related to the Rollover Units and Profit Interest Units in the Waterworks subsidiary, (vi) product recalls and (vii) severance costs associated with reorganizations. These items are excluded from segment operating income in order to provide better transparency of segment operating results. Accordingly, these items are not presented by segment because they are excluded from the segment profitability measure that the CODM and our senior leadership team reviews.

Forward-looking statements give our current expectations and projections relating to our financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance and business. You can identify forward-looking statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. These statements may include words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “plan,” “intend,” “believe,” “may,” “will,” “short-term,” “non-recurring,” “one-time,” “unusual,” “should,” “likely” and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of the timing or nature of future operating or financial performance or other events.


32 \| 2022 SECOND QUARTER FORM 10-Q	PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Table of Contents

Forward-looking statements are subject to risk and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those that we expected. We derive many of our forward-looking statements from our operating budgets and forecasts, which are based upon many detailed assumptions. While we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, we caution that it is very difficult to predict the impact of known factors and it is impossible for us to anticipate all factors that could affect our actual results, and matters that we identify as “short term,” “non-recurring,” “unusual,” “one-time,” or other words and terms of similar meaning may, in fact, recur in one or more future financial reporting periods. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations, or cautionary statements, include those factors disclosed under the section entitled Risk Factors in our 2021 Form 10-K, and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Part I of this quarterly report, in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended April 30, 2022 (the “First Quarter Form 10-Q”) and in our 2021 Form 10-K. All forward-looking statements attributable to us, or persons acting on our behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements, as well as other cautionary statements. You should evaluate all forward-looking statements made in this quarterly report in the context of these risks and uncertainties.

We cannot assure you that we will realize the results or developments we expect or anticipate or, even if substantially realized, that they will result in the consequences or affect us or our operations in the way we expect. The forward-looking statements included in this quarterly report are made only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

Key Value-Driving Strategies

In order to drive growth across our business, we are focused on the following long-term key strategies and business initiatives:

Product Elevation. We believe we have built the most comprehensive and compelling collection of luxury home furnishings under one brand in the world. Our products are presented across multiple collections, categories and channels that we control, and their desirability and exclusivity has enabled us to achieve industry-leading revenues and margins. Our customers know our brand concepts as RH Interiors, RH Modern, RH Contemporary, RH Outdoor, RH Beach House, RH Ski House, RH Baby & Child, RH TEEN and Waterworks. Our strategy is to continue to elevate the design and quality of our product. Over the next few years, we plan to introduce RH Couture Upholstery, RH Bespoke Furniture and RH Color.

Gallery Transformation. Our product is elevated and rendered more valuable by our architecturally inspiring Galleries. We believe our strategy to open new Design Galleries in every major market will unlock the value of our vast assortment, generating a revenue opportunity for our business of $5 to $6 billion in North America. We believe we can significantly increase our sales by transforming our real estate platform from our existing legacy retail footprint to a portfolio of Design Galleries that is sized to the potential of each market and the size of our assortment. In addition, we plan to incorporate hospitality into most of the new Design Galleries that we open in the future, which further elevates and renders our product and brand more valuable. We believe hospitality has created a unique new retail experience that cannot be replicated online, and that the addition of hospitality drives incremental sales of home furnishings in these Galleries.

Brand Elevation. We are evolving the brand beyond curating and selling product to conceptualizing and selling spaces by building an ecosystem of Products, Places, Services and Spaces designed to elevate and render our product more valuable while establishing the RH brand as a thought leader, taste and place maker. We believe our seamlessly integrated ecosystem of immersive experiences inspires customers to dream, design, dine, travel and live in a world thoughtfully curated by RH, creating an impression and connection unlike any other brand in the world. Our hospitality efforts will continue to elevate the RH brand as we extend beyond the four walls of our Galleries into RH Guesthouses, where our goal is to create a new market for travelers seeking privacy and luxury in the $200 billion North American hotel industry. In September 2022, we opened our first RH Guesthouse in New York. Additionally, we are creating bespoke experiences like RH Yountville, an integration of Food, Wine, Art & Design in the Napa Valley, RH1 & RH2, our private jets, and RH3, our luxury yacht that is available for charter in the Caribbean and Mediterranean, where the wealthy and affluent visit and vacation. These immersive experiences expose new and existing customers to our evolving authority in architecture, interior design and landscape architecture.

Digital Reimagination. Our strategy is to digitally reimagine the RH brand and business model both internally and externally. Internally, our multi-year effort began with the reimagination of our Center of Innovation & Product Leadership to incorporate digitally integrated visuals and decision data designed to amplify the creative process from product ideation to product presentation. Externally, our strategy comes to life digitally with The World of RH, an online portal where customers can explore and be inspired by the depth and dimension of our brand. Launched this spring, The World of RH includes rich, immersive content with simplified navigation and search functionality, all designed to enhance the shopping experience and render our product and brand more valuable. We expect to continue to elevate the customer experience on The World of RH with further enhancements to content, navigation and search functionality. We believe an opportunity exists to create similar strategic separation online as we have with our Galleries offline, reconceptualizing what a website can and should be.

Global Expansion. We believe that our luxury brand positioning and unique aesthetic have strong international appeal, and that pursuit of global expansion will provide RH a substantial long-term market opportunity to build a $20 to $25 billion global brand over time. Our view is that the competitive environment globally is more fragmented and primed for disruption than the North American market, and there is no direct competitor of scale that possesses the product, operational platform, and brand of RH. As such, we are actively pursuing the expansion of the RH brand globally with the objective of launching international locations in Europe beginning with the opening of RH England, The Country House at the Historic Aynho Park, in the spring of 2023. We have secured a number of locations in various markets in the United Kingdom and continental Europe for future Design Galleries and are in lease or purchase negotiations for additional locations.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), we use non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted capital expenditures (collectively, our “non-GAAP financial measures”). We compute these measures by adjusting the applicable GAAP measures to remove the impact of certain recurring and non-recurring charges and gains and the tax effect of these adjustments. The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. We use these non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. We believe that they provide useful information about operating results, enhance the overall understanding of past financial performance and future prospects, and allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by senior leadership in its financial and operational decision making. The non-GAAP financial measures used by us in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may be different from the non-GAAP financial measures, including similarly titled measures, used by other companies.

For more information on the non-GAAP financial measures, please see the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures tables outlined below. These accompanying tables include details on the GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to non-GAAP financial measures and the related reconciliations between these financial measures.

Adjusted Operating Income. Adjusted operating income is a supplemental measure of financial performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. We define adjusted operating income as consolidated operating income, adjusted for the impact of certain non-recurring and other items that we do not consider representative of our underlying operating performance.

Prior to the adoption of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-06—Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity (which was adopted as of the first quarter of fiscal 2022) (“ASU 2020-06”), certain convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash on conversion were required to be separately accounted for as liability and equity components of the instrument in a manner that reflected the issuer’s non-convertible debt borrowing rate. Accordingly, in accounting for GAAP purposes through fiscal 2021 for the $335 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes that were issued in June 2018 (the “2023 Notes”) and the $350 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes that were issued in September 2019 (the “2024 Notes”), we separated the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes into liability (debt) and equity (conversion option) components and we amortized as debt discount an amount equal to the fair value of the equity components as interest expense on the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes over their expected lives. The equity components represented the difference between the proceeds from the issuance of the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes and the fair value of the liability components of the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes, respectively. Amounts were presented net of interest capitalized for capital projects of $2.9 million and $5.6 million during the three and six months ended July 31, 2021, respectively. No amortization of the debt discounts were recognized during the three and six months ended July 30, 2022, since we recombined the previously outstanding equity component of the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes upon the adoption of ASU 2020-06.

(4)

The adjustment for both the three and six months ended July 30, 2022 is based on an adjusted tax rate of 0.0%, which represents our expected cash tax liability associated with anticipated fiscal 2022 results as we do not expect to pay taxes for fiscal 2022 due to the tax benefits primarily resulting from Mr. Friedman’s option exercise in the first quarter of fiscal 2022. The adjustment for the three and six months ended July 31, 2021 is based on an adjusted tax rate of 1.3% and 9.3%, respectively, which excludes the tax impact associated with our share of equity method investments losses.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are supplemental measures of financial performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. We define EBITDA as consolidated net income before depreciation and amortization, interest expense—net and income tax expense (benefit). Adjusted EBITDA reflects further adjustments to EBITDA to eliminate the impact of non-cash compensation, as well as certain non-recurring and other items that we do not consider representative of our underlying operating performance.

Net revenues

Consolidated net revenues increased $2.8 million, or 0.3%, to $992 million in the three months ended July 30, 2022 compared to $989 million in the three months ended July 31, 2021.

RH Segment net revenues

RH Segment net revenues decreased $7.4 million, or 0.8%, to $940 million in the three months ended July 30, 2022 compared to $948 million in the three months ended July 31, 2021. The below discussion highlights several significant factors that resulted in a decrease in RH Segment net revenues, which are listed in order of magnitude.

The decrease in RH Segment net revenues for the three months ended July 30, 2022 was driven primarily by softening demand trends, which began in the first quarter of fiscal 2022, and have remained below prior year trends during the second quarter of fiscal 2022. This decrease was partially offset by backlog relief, as well as increased revenue in our RH Hospitality business compared to the three months ended July 31, 2021 due to new Restaurant openings in fiscal 2021 and fiscal 2022. Outlet sales were $69 million in both the three months ended July 30, 2022 and July 31, 2021.

Waterworks net revenues

Waterworks net revenues increased $10 million, or 24.7%, to $51 million in the three months ended July 30, 2022 compared to $41 million in the three months ended July 31, 2021.

Gross profit

Consolidated gross profit increased $36 million, or 7.3%, to $523 million in the three months ended July 30, 2022 compared to $488 million in the three months ended July 31, 2021. As a percentage of net revenues, consolidated gross margin increased 350 basis points to 52.8% of net revenues in the three months ended July 30, 2022 from 49.3% of net revenues in the three months ended July 31, 2021.

RH Segment gross profit

RH Segment gross profit increased $28 million, or 6.0%, to $495 million in the three months ended July 30, 2022 from $467 million in the three months ended July 31, 2021. As a percentage of net revenues, RH Segment gross margin increased 340 basis points to 52.7% of net revenues in the three months ended July 30, 2022 from 49.3% of net revenues in the three months ended July 31, 2021. The increase in gross margin was primarily driven by an increase in product margins in the Core business, as well as leverage in our shipping costs during the three month period ended July 30, 2022, offset by increases in retail occupancy costs due to new Gallery openings in fiscal 2021 and fiscal 2022.

Waterworks gross profit

Waterworks gross profit increased $7.5 million, or 36.6%, to $28 million in the three months ended July 30, 2022 from $21 million in the three months ended July 31, 2021. As a percentage of net revenues, Waterworks gross margin increased 470 basis points to 54.7% of net revenues in the three months ended July 30, 2022 from 50.0% of net revenues in the three months ended July 31, 2021.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses increased $50 million, or 21.0%, to $289 million in the three months ended July 30, 2022 compared to $239 million in the three months ended July 31, 2021.

RH Segment selling, general and administrative expenses

RH Segment selling, general and administrative expenses increased $41 million, or 18.2%, to $264 million in the three months ended July 30, 2022 compared $224 million in the three months ended July 31, 2021.

RH Segment selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended July 30, 2022 include amortization of non-cash compensation of $4.3 million related to a fully vested option grant made to Mr. Friedman in October 2020, $2.0 million of asset impairments and a $0.3 million professional fee which was contingent upon the completion of our debt transactions related to the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes.

RH Segment selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended July 31, 2021 include $7.4 million related to asset impairments, amortization of the non-cash compensation of $5.8 million related to the option grant made to Mr. Friedman in October 2020 and $0.4 million related to severance costs and related payroll taxes associated with reorganizations.

Excluding the adjustments mentioned above, RH Segment selling, general and administrative expenses would have been 27.4% and 22.1% of net revenues for the three months ended July 30, 2022 and July 31, 2021, respectively. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net revenues was primarily driven by increased advertising costs due to the mailing of the new RH Contemporary Source Book, the launch of The World of RH, as well as higher employment and employment-related costs, occupancy costs, professional fees and pre-opening costs.

Waterworks selling, general and administrative expenses

Waterworks selling, general and administrative expenses increased $9.4 million, or 61.9%, to $25 million in the three months ended July 30, 2022 compared to $15 million in the three months ended July 31, 2021. Waterworks selling, general and administrative expenses were 47.8% and 36.8% of net revenues for the three months ended July 30, 2022 and July 31, 2021, respectively.

Waterworks selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended July 30, 2022 include $3.5 million in compensation settlements related to the Rollover Units and Profit Interests Units and a $0.2 million asset impairment. Excluding the adjustments, Waterworks Segment selling, general and administrative expenses would have been 40.7% and 36.8% of net revenues for the three months ended July 30, 2022 and July 31, 2021, respectively.

Loss on extinguishment of debt

During the three months ended July 30, 2022, we recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $23 million related to the repurchase of $57 million of principal value of convertible senior notes, inclusive of the acceleration of amortization of debt issuance costs of $0.3 million. The loss represents the difference between the carrying value and the fair value of the convertible senior notes upon entering into the repurchase agreements with the noteholders. Refer to Note 9—Convertible Senior Notes in our condensed consolidated financial statements. During the three months ended July 31, 2021, we recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $3.2 million for a portion of the 2023 Notes that were early converted at the option of the noteholders.

Other expense—net

Other expense—net was $3.2 million during the three months ended July 30, 2022, which included a loss on derivative instruments of $1.5 million resulting from the completion of certain transactions related to the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes. Refer to Note 9—Convertible Senior Notes in our condensed consolidated financial statements. Other expense—net also includes a $1.7 million loss due to unfavorable exchange rate changes affecting foreign currency denominated transactions, primarily between the U.S. dollar as compared to Pound Sterling and Euro, in addition to a foreign exchange loss from the remeasurement of an intercompany loan with a U.K. subsidiary.

Income tax expense (benefit)

Income tax expense was $56 million and $3.0 million in the three months ended July 30, 2022 and July 31, 2021, respectively. Our effective tax rate was 31.6% and 1.3% for the three months ended July 30, 2022 and July 31, 2021, respectively. The increase in our effective tax rate is primarily attributable to lower net excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation and amounts related to the loss on extinguishment of debt in the three months ended July 30, 2022.

Net revenues

Consolidated net revenues increased $99 million, or 5.4%, to $1,949 million in the six months ended July 30, 2022 compared to $1,850 million in the six months ended July 31, 2021.

RH Segment net revenues

RH Segment net revenues increased $82 million, or 4.6%, to $1,849 million in the six months ended July 30, 2022 compared to $1,767 million in the six months ended July 31, 2021. The below discussion highlights several significant factors that resulted in an increase in RH Segment net revenues, which are listed in order of magnitude.

RH Segment net revenues for the six months ended July 30, 2022 increased due to fulfillment of orders generated in prior quarters as elements of our supply chain continued to catch up with customer demand. However, beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2022, we began to experience softening demand trends that have remained below prior year trends during the first half of fiscal 2022. Additionally, net revenues from our RH Hospitality business increased compared to the six months ended July 31, 2021 due to new Restaurant openings in fiscal 2021 and fiscal 2022.

Outlet sales increased $8.0 million to $139 million in the six months ended July 30, 2022 compared to $131 million in the six months ended July 31, 2021.

Waterworks net revenues

Waterworks net revenues increased $18 million, or 21.4%, to $100 million in the six months ended July 30, 2022 compared to $82 million in the six months ended July 31, 2021.

Gross profit

Consolidated gross profit increased $127 million, or 14.2%, to $1,022 million in the six months ended July 30, 2022 from $895 million in the six months ended July 31, 2021. As a percentage of net revenues, consolidated gross margin increased 400 basis points to 52.4% of net revenues in the six months ended July 30, 2022 from 48.4% of net revenues in the six months ended July 31, 2021.

RH Segment gross profit

RH Segment gross profit increased $114 million, or 13.4%, to $968 million in the six months ended July 30, 2022 from $854 million in the six months ended July 31, 2021. As a percentage of net revenues, RH Segment gross margin increased 400 basis points to 52.3% of net revenues in the six months ended July 30, 2022 from 48.3% of net revenues in the six months ended July 31, 2021. The increase in gross margin was primarily driven by an increase in product margins in the Core business, as well as leverage in shipping costs during the six month period ended July 30, 2022, offset by increases in retail occupancy costs driven by new Gallery openings in fiscal 2021 and fiscal 2022.

Waterworks gross profit

Waterworks gross profit increased $13 million, or 31.4%, to $54 million in the six months ended July 30, 2022 from $41 million in the six months ended July 31, 2021. As a percentage of net revenues, Waterworks gross margin increased 410 basis points to 54.0% of net revenues in the six months ended July 30, 2022 from 49.9% of net revenues in the six months ended July 31, 2021 primarily driven by higher revenues, favorable changes in product mix, and leverage in Waterworks occupancy costs, offset by an increase in shipping costs related to customer deliveries.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses increased $124 million, or 27.2%, to $582 million in the six months ended July 30, 2022 compared to $458 million in the six months ended July 31, 2021.

RH Segment selling, general and administrative expenses

RH Segment selling, general and administrative expenses increased $112 million, or 26.1%, to $540 million in the six months ended July 30, 2022 compared to $428 million in the six months ended July 31, 2021.

RH Segment selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended July 30, 2022 include $12 million of employer payroll tax expense associated with Mr. Friedman’s stock option exercise during the first quarter of fiscal 2022, amortization of non-cash compensation of $10 million related to a fully vested option grant made to Mr. Friedman in October 2020, $8.0 million related to asset impairments, $7.5 million of professional fees which were contingent upon the completion of our debt transactions related to the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes and $0.6 million related to product recalls.

RH Segment selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended July 31, 2021 include amortization of the non-cash compensation of $12 million related to the option grant made to Mr. Friedman in October 2020, $7.4 million related to asset impairments and $0.4 million related to severance costs and related payroll taxes associated with reorganizations.

RH Segment selling, general and administrative expenses would have been 27.1% and 23.1% of net revenues for the six months ended July 30, 2022 and July 31, 2021, respectively, excluding the costs incurred in connection with the adjustments mentioned above. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net revenues was primarily driven by increased advertising costs due to the mailing of the new RH Contemporary Source Book, the launch of The World of RH, as well as higher employment and employment-related costs, occupancy costs, professional fees and pre-opening costs.

Waterworks selling, general and administrative expenses

Waterworks selling, general and administrative expenses increased $12 million, or 41.8%, to $42 million in the six months ended July 30, 2022 compared to $30 million in the six months ended July 31, 2021. Waterworks selling, general and administrative expenses were 42.5% and 36.3% of net revenues for the six months ended July 30, 2022 and July 31, 2021, respectively.

Waterworks selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended July 30, 2022 include $3.5 million in compensation settlements related to the Rollover Units and Profit Interest Units and a $0.2 million asset impairment. Waterworks selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended July 31, 2021 include $0.5 million related to product recalls.

Excluding the adjustments mentioned above, Waterworks selling, general and administrative expenses would have been 38.8% and 35.7% of net revenues for the six months ended July 30, 2022 and July 31, 2021.

Income tax expense (benefit)

Income tax benefit was $107 million and income tax expense was $45 million in the six months ended July 30, 2022 and July 31, 2021, respectively. Our effective tax rate was (49.6)% and 11.1% for the six months ended July 30, 2022 and July 31, 2021, respectively. The decrease in our effective tax rate is primarily due to significantly higher discrete tax benefits from stock-based compensation in fiscal 2022.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

Our principal sources of liquidity are cash flows generated from operations, our current balances of cash and cash equivalents, and amounts available under our ABL Credit Agreement. In fiscal 2021, we entered into the ABL Credit Agreement, which amended and extended our asset based credit facility, and issued the Term Loan B in the amount of $2.0 billion pursuant to the Term Loan Credit Agreement. The issuance of the Term Loan B was assigned a Ba2 rating from Moody’s Investors Service and BB rating from S&P Global. Additionally, in May 2022, we entered into the 2022 Incremental Amendment, which amended the Term Loan Credit Agreement and raised an incremental $500 million of financing by means of the Term Loan B-2. The issuance of the Term Loan B-2 was assigned a Ba3 rating from Moody’s Investors Service and BB rating from S&P Global. Refer to Note 10—Credit Facilities in our condensed consolidated financial statements.

A summary of our net debt, and availability under the ABL Credit Agreement, is set forth in the following table:

General

The primary cash needs of our business have historically been for merchandise inventories, payroll, rent for our retail and outlet locations, capital expenditures associated with opening new locations, Source Books and updating existing locations, as well as the development of our infrastructure and information technology. We seek out and evaluate opportunities for effectively managing and deploying capital in ways that improve working capital and support and enhance our business initiatives and strategies. We continuously evaluate our capital allocation strategy and may engage in future investments in connection with existing or new share repurchase programs (refer to “Share Repurchase Program” below), which may include investments in derivatives or other equity linked instruments. We have in the past been, and continue to be, opportunistic in responding to favorable market conditions regarding both sources and uses of capital. Capital raised from debt financings has enabled us to pursue various investments. We expect to continue to take an opportunistic approach regarding both sources and uses of capital in connection with our business.


PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION	2022 SECOND QUARTER FORM 10-Q \| 47

Table of Contents

We believe our capital structure provides us with substantial optionality regarding capital allocation. Our near-term decisions regarding the sources and uses of capital will continue to reflect and adapt to changes in market conditions and our business, including further developments with respect to macro-economic factors and the pandemic affecting business conditions including inflation and a rising interest rate environment. We believe our existing cash balances and operating cash flows, in conjunction with available financing arrangements, will be sufficient to repay our debt obligations as they become due, meet working capital requirements and fulfill other capital needs for more than the next 12 months.

While we do not require additional debt to fund our operations, our goal continues to be in a position to take advantage of the many opportunities that we identify in connection with our business and operations. We have pursued in the past, and may pursue in the future, additional strategies to generate capital to pursue opportunities and investments, including through the strategic sale of existing assets, utilization of our credit facilities, entry into various credit agreements and other new debt financing arrangements that present attractive terms. We expect to continue to use additional sources of debt financing in future periods as a source of additional capital to fund our various investments. In addition to funding the normal operations of our business, we have used our liquidity to fund significant investments and strategies such as our share repurchase program, various acquisitions, and growth initiatives, including through joint ventures and real estate investments. In the second quarter of fiscal 2022, we repurchased 1,000,000 shares of our common stock under the Share Repurchase Program at an average price of $254.72 per share, for an aggregate repurchase amount of approximately $255 million.

To the extent we choose to secure additional sources of liquidity through incremental debt financing, there can be no assurances that we will be able to raise such financing on favorable terms, if at all, or that future financing requirements will not require us to raise money through an equity financing or by other means that could be dilutive to holders of our capital stock. Any adverse developments in the U.S. or global credit markets as a result of the pandemic or any other reason could affect our ability to manage our debt obligations and our ability to access future debt. In addition, agreements governing existing or new debt facilities may restrict our ability to operate our business in the manner we currently expect or to make required payments with respect to existing commitments including the repayment of the principal amount of our convertible senior notes in cash, whether upon stated maturity, early conversion or otherwise of such convertible senior notes. To the extent we need to seek waivers from any provider of debt financing, or we fail to observe the covenants or other requirements of existing or new debt facilities, any such event could have an impact on our other commitments and obligations including triggering cross defaults or other consequences with respect to other indebtedness. Our current level of indebtedness, and any additional indebtedness that we may incur, exposes us to certain risks with regards to interest rate increases and fluctuations. Our ability to make interest payments or to refinance any of our indebtedness to manage such interest rates may be limited or negatively affected by credit market conditions, macroeconomic trends and other risks.

Credit Facilities and Debt Arrangements

We amended and restated our asset based credit facility in July 2021, which has an initial availability of up to $600 million, of which $10 million is available to Restoration Hardware Canada, Inc., and includes a $300 million accordion feature under which the revolving line of credit may be expanded by agreement of the parties from $600 million to up to $900 million if and to the extent the lenders revise their credit commitments to encompass a larger facility. The accordion feature may be added as a first-in, last-out term loan facility. The ABL Credit Agreement further provides the borrowers may request a European sub-credit facility under the revolving line of credit or under the accordion feature for borrowing by certain European subsidiaries of RH if certain conditions set out in the asset based credit facility are met. The maturity date of the asset based credit facility is July 29, 2026.

We entered into a $2.0 billion term debt financing in October 2021 (the “Term Loan B”) by means of a Term Loan Credit Agreement through RHI as the borrower, Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent and collateral agent, and the various lenders party thereto (the “Term Loan Credit Agreement”). The Term Loan B has a maturity date of October 20, 2028. As of July 30, 2022, we had $1,985 million outstanding under the Term Loan Credit Agreement. We are required to make quarterly principal payments of $5.0 million with respect to the Term Loan B.

Table of Contents

On May 13, 2022, we entered into an incremental term debt financing (the “Term Loan B-2”) in an aggregate principal amount equal to $500 million by means of an amendment to the Term Loan Credit Agreement with RHI as the borrower, Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent and the various lenders parties thereto (the “Amended Term Loan Credit Agreement”). The Term Loan B-2 has a maturity date of October 20, 2028. The Term Loan B-2 constitutes a separate class from the existing Term Loan B under the Term Loan Credit Agreement. As of July 30, 2022, we had $500 million outstanding under the Amended Term Loan Credit Agreement. We are not required to make quarterly principal payments with respect to the Term Loan B-2 until December 2022.

Certain Transactions Related to Convertible Senior Notes

In the first and second quarters of fiscal 2022, we entered into certain transactions in connection with the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes.

Warrant Termination Agreements

In the first quarter of fiscal 2022, we entered into individual privately negotiated agreements with a limited number of sophisticated financial institutions (collectively, the “Counterparties”) to repurchase all of the warrants previously issued in connection with the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes. Upon closing of these transactions, we paid an aggregate of $391 million in cash to terminate warrants representing 3,385,580 shares of our common stock.

Convertible Bond Hedge Unwind Transactions

In the first quarter of fiscal 2022, we entered into individual privately negotiated agreements with the Counterparties to terminate all of the remaining convertible note bond hedges previously entered into in connection with the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes. Upon closing of these transactions, we received an aggregate of $232 million in cash for the termination of the bond hedges.

Convertible Senior Notes Repurchases

In the first and second quarters of fiscal 2022, we entered into individual privately negotiated transactions with certain holders of the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes to repurchase $237 million in aggregate principal amount of the convertible senior notes representing $63 million and $174 million in principal amount of 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes, respectively. Upon closing of these transactions, we paid an aggregate of $396 million in cash to repurchase such convertible senior notes.

Result of the Convertible Notes Transactions

In aggregate, we expended a net total amount of approximately $563 million in cash (inclusive of expenses) in the six months ended July 30, 2022 to complete the above transactions.

As a result of the bond hedge termination agreements, all convertible note hedges entered into in connection with the issuance of the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes have been terminated, including convertible note hedges with respect to any 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes that remain outstanding.

As a result of the warrant termination agreements, all warrants entered into in connection with the issuance of the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes have been terminated, including warrants with respect to any 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes that remain outstanding.

Following the completion of the above convertible senior notes repurchases, we had $44 million remaining in aggregate principal amount of convertible notes outstanding as of July 30, 2022, comprised of $1.7 million of 2023 Notes and $42 million of 2024 Notes. The remaining 2023 Notes have a scheduled maturity in June 2023 and the remaining 2024 Notes have a scheduled maturity in September 2024. We anticipate having ample cash available in order to repay the principal amount of our convertible notes in cash with respect to any convertible notes for which the holders elect early conversion, as well as upon maturity in June 2023 and September 2024, in each case in order to minimize dilution.

Capital

We have invested significant capital expenditures in developing and opening new Design Galleries, and these capital expenditures have increased in the past, and may continue to increase in future periods, as we open additional Design Galleries, which may require us to undertake upgrades to historical buildings or construction of new buildings. Our adjusted capital expenditures include capital expenditures from investing activities and cash outflows of capital related to construction activities to design and build landlord-owned leased assets, net of tenant allowances received during the construction period. During the six months ended July 30, 2022, adjusted capital expenditures were $95 million in aggregate, net of cash received related to landlord tenant allowances of $5.4 million. In addition, we also received landlord tenant allowances of $4.4 million, which are reflected as a reduction to principal payments under finance leases within financing activities on the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. We anticipate our adjusted capital expenditures to be $200 million to $225 million in fiscal 2022, primarily related to our growth and expansion, including construction of new Design Galleries and infrastructure investments. Nevertheless, we may elect to pursue additional capital expenditures beyond those that are anticipated during any given fiscal period inasmuch as our strategy is to be opportunistic with respect to our investments and we may choose to pursue certain capital transactions based on the availability and timing of unique opportunities. There are a number of macro-economic factors and uncertainties affecting the overall business climate, as well as our business, including increased inflation and rising interest rates and we may make adjustments to our allocation of capital in fiscal 2022 or beyond in response to these changing or other circumstances. We may also invest in other uses of our liquidity such as share repurchases, acquisitions, and growth initiatives, including through joint ventures and real estate investments.

Certain lease arrangements require the landlord to fund a portion of the construction related costs through payments directly to us. As we develop new Galleries, as well as other potential strategic initiatives in the future like our integrated hospitality experience, we are exploring other models for our real estate activities, which include different terms and conditions for real estate transactions. These transactions may involve longer lease terms or further purchases of, or joint ventures or other forms of equity ownership in, real estate interests associated with new sites and buildings that we wish to develop for new Gallery locations or other aspects of our business. These approaches might require different levels of capital investment on our part than a traditional store lease with a landlord. We also are pursuing change in our real estate strategy to transition some projects from a leasing model to a development model, where we buy and develop real estate for our Design Galleries either directly or through joint ventures and other structures with the objective of ultimately (i) recouping a majority of the investment through a sale-leaseback arrangement and (ii) resulting in lower capital investment and lower rent. For example, in fiscal 2019 we executed a sale-leaseback transaction for the Yountville Design Gallery for sales proceeds of $24 million and in fiscal 2020 we executed a sale-leaseback transaction for the Minneapolis Design Gallery for sales proceeds of $26 million, both of which qualified for sale-leaseback accounting. In the event that such capital and other expenditures require us to pursue additional funding sources, we can provide no assurance that we will be successful in securing additional funding on attractive terms or at all. In addition, our capital needs and uses of capital may change in the future due to changes in our business or new opportunities that we may pursue.

Net Cash Provided By Operating Activities

Operating activities consist primarily of net income adjusted for non-cash items including depreciation and amortization, impairments, stock-based compensation, loss on extinguishment of debt, cash paid attributable to accretion of debt discount upon settlement of debt (prior to the adoption of ASU 2020-06 in fiscal 2022) and the effect of changes in working capital and other activities.

For the six months ended July 30, 2022, net cash provided by operating activities was $193 million and consisted of net income of $323 million and an increase in non-cash items of $317 million, partially offset by a change in working capital and other activities of $447 million. The use of cash from working capital was primarily driven by an increase in prepaid expenses and other assets of $153 million primarily due to federal and state tax receivables and the issuance of additional promissory notes receivable, an increase in merchandise inventory of $125 million, a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $64 million, a decrease in operating lease liabilities of $38 million primarily due to payments made under the related lease agreements, an increase in landlord asset under construction, net of tenant allowances, of $32 million and a decrease in other current liabilities of $25 million.

Net Cash Used In Investing Activities

Investing activities consist primarily of investments in capital expenditures related to investments in retail stores, information technology and systems infrastructure, as well as supply chain investments. Investing activities also include our strategic investments.

For the six months ended July 30, 2022, net cash used in investing activities was $64 million and was comprised of investments in retail stores, information technology and systems infrastructure of $63 million and additional funding of our equity method investments of $1.5 million.

Financing activities consist primarily of borrowings and repayments related to convertible senior notes, credit facilities and other financing arrangements, and cash used in connection with such financing activities include investments in our share repurchase program, repayment of indebtedness including principal payments under finance lease agreements and other equity related transactions.

For the six months ended July 30, 2022, net cash used in financing activities was $224 million, primarily due to the completion of certain transactions related to the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes in the first quarter of fiscal 2022. These transactions resulted in payments of $391 million for the termination of all such outstanding common stock warrants, partially offset by proceeds of $232 million from the termination of all of the remaining convertible note bond hedges. Net cash used in financing activities also included uses of cash of $395 million for the settlement of the convertible senior notes repurchase obligation, as well as payments of $13 million in aggregate principal amount of certain 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes as a result of early conversions by the noteholders. Refer to Note 9—Convertible Senior Notes in our condensed consolidated financial statements.

These cash outflows were partially offset by the issuance of the Term Loan B-2 in May 2022 in the amount of $500 million pursuant to the 2022 Incremental Amendment to the Term Loan Credit Agreement, for which we incurred debt issuance costs of $28 million. During the six months ended July 30, 2022, we made payments on equipment notes of $13 million, payments under our term loans of $10 million and net payments under finance lease agreements of $3.1 million.

During the six months ended July 30, 2022, we repurchased 1,000,000 shares of our common stock for an aggregate repurchase amount of $255 million and we received proceeds from option exercises of $152 million, primarily due to Mr. Friedman’s option exercise activity in the first quarter of fiscal 2022.

Non-Cash Transactions

Non-cash transactions consist of non-cash additions of property and equipment and landlord assets and reclassification of assets from landlord assets under construction to finance lease right-of-use assets. In addition, non-cash transactions consist of the extinguishment of convertible senior notes related to our repurchase obligations and associated financing liabilities and embedded derivatives arising from the convertible senior notes repurchases (refer to Note 9—Convertible Senior Notes in our condensed consolidated financial statements), as well as shares issued and received related to convertible senior note transactions.

Share Repurchase Program and Share Retirement

We regularly review share repurchase activity and consider various factors in determining whether and when to execute investments in connection with our share repurchase program, including, among others, current cash needs, capacity for leverage, cost of borrowings, results of operations and the market price of our common stock. We believe that our share repurchase program will continue to be an excellent allocation of capital for the long-term benefit of our shareholders. We may undertake other repurchase programs in the future with respect to our securities.

Share Repurchase Program

In 2018, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or other means, including through Rule 10b-18 open market repurchases, Rule 10b5-1 trading plans or through the use of other techniques such as the acquisition of other equity linked instruments, accelerated share repurchases including through privately-negotiated arrangements in which a portion of the share repurchase program is committed in advance through a financial intermediary and/or in transactions involving hedging or derivatives.

On June 2, 2022, the Board of Directors authorized an additional $2.0 billion for the purchase of shares of our outstanding common stock, which increased the total authorized size of the share repurchase program to $2,450 million (the “Share Repurchase Program”). In the second quarter of fiscal 2022, we repurchased 1,000,000 shares of our common stock under the Share Repurchase Program at an average price of $254.72 per share, for an aggregate repurchase amount of approximately $255 million. As of July 30, 2022, approximately $2,195 million remains available for future share repurchases under the Share Repurchase Program.

Share Retirement

During the second quarter of fiscal 2022, we retired 1,000,000 shares of common stock related to shares we repurchased under the Share Repurchase Program. As a result of this retirement, we reclassified a total of $255 million from treasury stock to additional paid-in capital on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and condensed consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity as of July 30, 2022.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires senior leadership to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and related notes, as well as the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We evaluate our accounting policies, estimates, and judgments on an on-going basis. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions and such differences could be material to the consolidated financial statements.

We evaluate the development and selection of our critical accounting policies and estimates and believe that certain of our significant accounting policies involve a higher degree of judgment or complexity and are most significant to reporting our consolidated results of operations and financial position, and are therefore discussed as critical:

Merchandise Inventories—Reserves

Impairment

Tradenames, Trademarks and Other Intangible Assets

Long-Lived Assets

Lease Accounting

Reasonably Certain Lease Term

Incremental Borrowing Rate

Fair Value

Stock-Based Compensation—Performance-Based Awards

Equity Method Investments

There have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies and estimates listed above from the disclosures included in the 2021 Form 10-K. For further discussion regarding these policies, refer to Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates in the 2021 Form 10-K.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Refer to Note 2—Recently Issued Accounting Standards in our condensed consolidated financial statements for a description of recently issued accounting standards that may impact our consolidated financial statements in future reporting periods.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE OF MARKET RISKS

Interest Rate Risk

We currently do not engage in any interest rate hedging activity and we have no intention to do so in the foreseeable future.


PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION	2022 SECOND QUARTER FORM 10-Q \| 53

Table of Contents

We are subject to interest rate risk in connection with borrowings under the ABL Credit Agreement and the Term Loan Credit Agreement, as amended, in each case bearing interest at variable rates and we may incur additional indebtedness that bears interest at variable rates. The Federal Reserve continued increasing short-term interest rates in the first half of 2022, compared to the historically low levels in the same period in 2021 and there is widespread expectation in the market for rate increases to continue during the remainder of 2022. Such interest rate increases, if they continue, may increase the interest rate applicable to our borrowings that have rates that are subject to adjustment pursuant to floating rate indices such as LIBOR or SOFR. As of July 30, 2022, we had no outstanding borrowings under the revolving line of credit and $2,485 million outstanding under the Term Loan Credit Agreement. The ABL Credit Agreement provides for a borrowing amount based on the value of eligible collateral and a formula linked to certain borrowing percentages based on certain categories of collateral. Under the terms of such provisions, the amount under the revolving line of credit borrowing base that could be available pursuant to the ABL Credit Agreement as of July 30, 2022 was $528 million, net of $25 million in outstanding letters of credit. Based on the average interest rate on the revolving line of credit under the ABL Credit Agreement and the Term Loan B and Term Loan B-2 under the Term Loan Credit Agreement during the six months ended July 30, 2022, and to the extent that borrowings were outstanding under any facility, we do not believe that a 10% change in the interest rate would have a material effect on our consolidated results of operations or financial condition. To the extent that we incur additional indebtedness, we may increase our exposure to risk from interest rate fluctuations.

Following announcements by the United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority (the “FCA”), which regulates LIBOR, and the Intercontinental Exchange Benchmark Administration, the administrator of LIBOR, publication of 1-week and 2-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings and all tenors for other currencies ceased after December 31, 2021. While publication of the remaining U.S. Dollar settings (overnight and 1, 3, 6 and 12 month U.S. Dollar LIBOR) is expected to cease after June 20, 2023. U.S. banking and other global financial services regulators have directed regulated institutions to cease entering into new LIBOR-based contracts as soon as practicable and in any event by the end of 2021.

A number of our current debt facilities entered into prior to the end of 2021, including the facilities under the ABL Credit Agreement and the Term Loan B, have an interest rate tied to LIBOR. At this time, it is not possible to predict the effect of transitioning from LIBOR. SOFR, which is currently published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York based on overnight U.S. Treasury repurchase agreement transactions, has been recommended as the alternative to LIBOR by the Alternative Reference Rates Committee convened by the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and is provided as an alternative rate for our current debt facilities having an interest rate tied to LIBOR. However, SOFR or any other alternative rates may result in interest payments that are higher than expected or that do not otherwise correlate over time with the payments that would have been made on such indebtedness for the interest periods if the applicable LIBOR rate was available in its current form. We intend to continue to evaluate and monitor the risks associated with the LIBOR transition which include identifying and monitoring our exposure to LIBOR and ensuring operational processes are updated to accommodate alternative rates. We expect that the interest rates under our ABL Credit Agreement and Term Loan B will transition from LIBOR to SOFR upon the cessation of applicable published LIBOR rates by June 2023. Due to uncertainty surrounding alternative rates, we are unable to predict the overall impact of this change at this time.

As of July 30, 2022, we had $1.7 million principal amount of 0.00% convertible senior notes due 2023 outstanding (the “2023 Notes”). As this instrument does not bear interest, we do not have interest rate risk exposure related to this debt.

As of July 30, 2022, we had $42 million principal amount of 0.00% convertible senior notes due 2024 outstanding (the “2024 Notes”). As this instrument does not bear interest, we do not have interest rate risk exposure related to this debt.

Foreign Currency Risk

Our revenues are predominately denominated in U.S. dollars, and accordingly, our net revenues are not currently subject to significant foreign currency risk. However, as we are currently expanding our operations into select European markets, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates are beginning to impact our results of operations. Certain of our operating expenses are denominated in the currencies of the countries in which our operations exist or are expanding, and accordingly, we have exposure to adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates, particularly changes in the Pound sterling, Euro and Canadian Dollar, as our international operations are translated from local currency, or functional currency, into U.S. dollars upon consolidation. Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates may cause us to recognize transaction gains and losses in our consolidated statements of income, which are presented in other expense—net on the consolidated statements of income. We minimize this exposure by managing cash balances at levels appropriate to meet forthcoming expenses in U.S. dollars and applicable foreign currencies.


54 \| 2022 SECOND QUARTER FORM 10-Q	PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Table of Contents

To date, we have not engaged in foreign currency hedging transactions because our foreign currency transaction gains and losses have not been material to our consolidated financial statements, but we may begin foreign currency risk management strategies in the future.

Market Price Sensitive Instruments

Convertible Senior Notes

In connection with the issuance of the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes, we entered into privately-negotiated convertible note hedge transactions with certain counterparties. We also entered into separate warrant transactions with the same group of counterparties initially relating to the number of shares of our common stock underlying the convertible note hedge transactions, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. During the first and second quarters of fiscal 2022, we entered into agreements to repurchase $237 million in aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes consisting of approximately $63 million and $174 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes, respectively. In addition to such convertible senior notes repurchases, in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 we also terminated all of the remaining bond hedges as well as all of the outstanding warrants originally issued in conjunction with the 2023 Notes and the 2024 Notes. Refer to Note 9—Convertible Senior Notes in our condensed consolidated financial statements for further information on these transactions related to the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes.

Impact of Inflation

Our results of operations and financial condition are presented based on historical cost. While it is difficult to accurately measure the historical impact of inflation due to the imprecise nature of the estimates required, we believe the effects of inflation, if any, on our consolidated results of operations and financial condition have been immaterial to date. However, there can be no assurance that our results of operations and financial condition will not be materially impacted by inflation in the future, including by heightened levels of inflation that were being experienced globally at the end of our first fiscal quarter. We may be unable to overcome these issues through measures such as price increases for our products. Risks related to inflation could include increased costs for many products and services that are necessary for the operation of our business, as well as the impact of interest rate increases, which could have among other consequences a negative effect on the housing market and impact to consumer demand for our products.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our senior leadership team, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and include controls and procedures designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in such reports is accumulated and communicated to our senior leadership team, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our fiscal quarter ended July 30, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, we and/or our senior leadership team are involved in litigation, claims and other proceedings relating to the conduct of our business, including purported class action litigation, as well as securities class action litigation. Such legal proceedings may include claims related to our employment practices, wage and hour claims, claims of intellectual property infringement, including with respect to trademarks and trade dress, claims asserting unfair competition and unfair business practices, claims with respect to our collection and sale of reproduction products, and consumer class action claims relating to our consumer practices including the collection of zip code or other information from customers. In addition, from time to time, we are subject to product liability and personal injury claims for the products that we sell and the stores we operate. Subject to certain exceptions, our purchase orders generally require the vendor to indemnify us against any product liability claims; however, if the vendor does not have insurance or becomes insolvent, we may not be indemnified. In addition, we could face a wide variety of employee claims against us, including general discrimination, privacy, labor and employment, ERISA and disability claims. Any claims could result in litigation against us and could also result in regulatory proceedings being brought against us by various federal and state agencies that regulate our business, including the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. Often these cases raise complex factual and legal issues, which are subject to risks and uncertainties and which could require significant senior leadership team’s time. Litigation and other claims and regulatory proceedings against us could result in unexpected expenses and liability and could also materially adversely affect our operations and our reputation.

For additional information refer to Note 16—Commitments and Contingencies in our condensed consolidated financial statements within Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

We operate in a rapidly changing environment that involves a number of risks that could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, prospects, operating results or cash flows. For a detailed discussion of certain risks that affect our business, refer to the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our 2021 Form 10-K. There have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our 2021 Form 10-K.

The risks described in our 2021 Form 10-K are not the only risks we face. We describe in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q certain known trends and uncertainties that affect our business. Additional risks and uncertainties that we are unaware of, or that we currently believe are not material, may also become important factors that adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.
