HIBBETT SPORTS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1.	1. Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Hibbett Sports, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (including the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of February ~~2, 2019,~~1, 2020, which has been derived from audited financial statements) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial information and are presented in accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. References to “we,” “our,” “us” and the “Company” refer to Hibbett Sports, Inc. and its subsidiaries as well as its predecessors.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February ~~2, 2019~~1, 2020 filed on April ~~18, 2019.~~16, 2020. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a basis consistent in all material respects with the accounting policies described in our ~~2019~~2020 Annual Report ~~except as described in Note 4,~~ ~~Leases~~, and reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature that are, in management’s opinion, necessary for the fair presentation of the results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the periods presented.

~~Acquisition~~Impact of the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19)

~~We acquired City Gear, LLC (City Gear)~~COVID-19 was declared a global pandemic by the World Health Organization on ~~November 5, 2018 with an effective date~~March 11, 2020 and has led to adverse impacts on the U.S. and global economies. The outbreak of ~~November 4, 2018 for approximately $88.0 million,~~COVID-19 and related measures to quell the outbreak have impacted our inventory supply chain, operations and customer demand. The Company’s stores and distribution centers have continued to operate where permitted by governmental jurisdictions during the COVID-19 pandemic, and the Company is committed to maintaining a safe work and shopping environment. The COVID-19 pandemic could further affect the Company's operations and the operations of its suppliers and vendors as a result of continuing shelter-in-place orders, restrictions and limitations on travel, limitations on store or facility operations up to and including ~~$86.8 million of cash paid. (See Note 3, Acquisition~~)closures, and other governmental, business or consumer actions. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will impact the Company’s operations, liquidity or financial results in subsequent periods is uncertain, but such impact could be material.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, when control of the merchandise is transferred to our customer. Sales are recorded net of expected returns at the time the customer takes possession of the merchandise. Net sales exclude sales taxes because we are a pass-through conduit for collecting and remitting these taxes.

Index

Retail Store Sales: For merchandise sold in our stores, revenue is recognized at the point of sale when tender is accepted and the customer takes possession of the merchandise.

~~Index~~

Retail Store Orders: Retail store customers may order merchandise available in other retail store locations for pickup in the selling store at a later date. Customers make a deposit with the remaining balance due at pickup. These deposits are recorded as deferred revenue until the transaction is completed and the customer takes possession of the merchandise. Retail store customers may also order merchandise to be shipped to home. Payment is received in full at the time of order and recorded as deferred revenue until delivery.

Layaways: We offer a retail store program giving customers the option of paying a deposit and placing merchandise on layaway. The customer may make further payments in installments, but the full purchase price must be received by us within 30 days. The payments are recorded as deferred revenue until the transaction is completed and the customer takes possession of the merchandise.

Digital Channel Sales: For merchandise shipped to home, customer payment is received when the order ships. Revenue is deferred until control passes to the customer at delivery. Shipping and handling costs billed to customers are included in net sales. We offer an extended payment option through a third party who assumes all credit risk. On these orders, payment is received by us when the order ships and revenue is recorded when the product is delivered to the customer.

Loyalty ~~Programs~~Program: We offer ~~two loyalty programs;~~ the Hibbett Rewards program ~~and the City Gear Reward Points program. Upon~~whereby upon registration and in accordance with the terms of the ~~programs,~~program, customers earn points on certain purchases. Points convert into rewards at defined thresholds. The short-term future performance obligation liability is estimated at each reporting period based on historical conversion and redemption patterns.

Gift Cards: Proceeds received from the issuance of our non-expiring gift cards are initially recorded as deferred revenue. Revenue is subsequently recognized at the time the customer redeems the gift cards and takes possession of the merchandise. Unredeemed gift cards are recorded in accounts payable on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The net deferred revenue liability for gift cards, customer orders and layaways at ~~both~~May 2, 2020, February 1, 2020 and May 4, 2019 was $13.2 million, $7.7 million and ~~February 2, 2019 was~~ $7.5 million, respectively, and is recognized in accounts payable on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Gift card breakage income is recognized in net sales in proportion to the redemption pattern of rights exercised by the customer and was not material in any period presented.

Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets

Goodwill and the City Gear tradename are indefinite-lived assets which are not amortized but rather tested for impairment at least annually, or on an interim basis if events and circumstances have occurred that indicate that it is more likely than not that

Index

an asset is impaired. Such events or circumstances could include, but are not limited to, significant negative industry or economic trends, unanticipated changes in the competitive environment and a significant sustained decline in the market price of our stock. If it is more likely than not than an asset is impaired, the amount that the carrying value exceeds the fair value is recorded as an impairment charge to current income.

Due to the macroeconomic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, we determined that indicators of potential impairment were present during the 13-weeks ended May 2, 2020. As a result, we performed interim impairment testing on goodwill and the City Gear tradename as of April 15, 2020, using updated assumptions around prospective financial information, growth rates, discount rates applied to future cash flows, and comparable multiples from publicly traded companies in our industry.

In valuing goodwill, we use a combination of the Discounted Cash Flow methodology and the Guideline Public Company methodology which require assumptions related to future cash flows, discount rate and comparable public company entities. In the 13-weeks ended May 2, 2020, we determined that goodwill of our City Gear reporting unit was fully impaired and recognized a non-cash impairment charge of $19.7 million. NaN impairment related to goodwill was recognized during the year ended February 1, 2020 or the 13-weeks ended May 4, 2019.

~~We adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-02, Topic 842,~~ ~~Leases, as~~the City Gear tradename was partially impaired and recognized a non-cash impairment charge of February 3, 2019 using the modified retrospective transition method with the cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings as of the effective date (effective date method). Under the effective date method, financial results reported$8.9 million in ~~periods prior to Fiscal 2020 are unchanged.~~

We elected the package of practical expedients, which among other things, does not require reassessment of lease classification. We did not elect to use hindsight in determining the lease term of existing contracts at the effective date. We also elected the short-term lease recognition exemption for all our leases. For those leases that qualified as short-term, we did not recognize ROU assets or lease liabilities at adoption. We have lease agreements with non-lease components that relate to the lease components. We elected not to separate the non-lease components for store ~~lease assets. We elected to separate the non-lease components for office~~operating, selling and ~~transportation equipment lease assets.~~

The adoption of ASU 2016-02 had a material impact on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance. Adoption of the standard resulted in the recognition of operating and finance lease ROU assets and operating and finance lease liabilities of $234.0 million and $265.6 million, respectively, and a reduction to retained earnings of $2.1 million, net of tax, as of February 3, 2019. The operating lease ROU assets recorded at transition include the impact of net unfavorable lease rights of approximately $2.0 million, deferred rent of approximately $25.4 million, and the impairment of ROU assets recognized in retained earnings as of February 3, 2019 of approximately $3.4 million.

3.	~~Acquisition~~

On November 5, 2018, through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Hibbett Sporting Goods, Inc., we acquired City Gear, a Tennessee limited liability company. Under the Purchase Agreement, we agreed to acquire all the outstanding warrants and equity interests, other than certain preferred membership interests, of City Gear, a privately held city specialty retailer.3. Leases

The purchase price was $88.0 million (Purchase Price) in cash payable at the closing of the transaction (Closing), subject to customary adjustments for City Gear’s cash on hand and net working capital as of the Closing date. The Purchase Agreement provided that a portion of the Purchase Price be used at Closing to pay off and redeem the outstanding preferred membership interests in City Gear as well as certain other outstanding indebtedness. In addition, the aggregate consideration payable to the Sellers in connection with the transaction includes two contingent payments (Earnout) based on City Gear’s achievement of certain EBITDA thresholds (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) for the 52-week periods ended February 1, 2020 and January 30, 2021, respectively. The aggregate amount of the Earnout, if any, will not exceed $25.0 million. The preliminary fair value of the Earnout is recorded in other liabilities on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

~~Index~~

With over 130 stores, the acquisition provides us with substantially greater scale in the athletic specialty market and is an extension of our strategy to provide high demand, branded products to underserved markets. During the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2019, we have incurred $1.7 million in acquisition-related expenses, excluding acquisition-related interest expense.

The following table summarizes the preliminary estimates of the fair values of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date of November 4, 2018. The preliminary estimates of the fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on estimates and assumptions and are subject to revisions, which may result in adjustments to the preliminary values presented below, when management’s estimates are finalized (in thousands):

Net working capital and debt-like items adjustment (1,085 ) (1,085 ) -
$ 94,952 $ 91,752 $ (3,200 )

The adjustments recorded in the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2019 to the preliminary estimates of the fair values of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of November 4, 2018 are due to continued refinement of management’s appraisals and estimates. Measurement period adjustments are calculated as if they were known at the acquisition date but are recognized during the quarter they became determined. The provisional fair values of lease-to-market intangibles and the contingent earnout were adjusted during the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2019 when third party valuation services were updated. The provisional fair value of tenant allowance receivables related to contributions from landlords was adjusted during the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2019 when the assessment of amounts and likelihood of collection were updated. The adjustments recorded did not have a material impact on results reported in prior reporting periods.

We are still in the process of completing our fair market valuations and the purchase price allocation. As such, the amounts above are preliminary, pending the completion of procedures related to intangible assets and liabilities, inventory, property and equipment, lease-related matters and the tax effect of any identified changes.

Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the purchase price over the net assets acquired and represents the value of City Gear’s brand, our expansion in the city specialty market and expected synergies resulting from the acquisition. Goodwill is amortized for tax purposes.

~~Index~~

Intangible assets and liabilities represent two separately identified assets and one liability. First, we identified the City Gear tradename as an indefinite-lived intangible asset with a fair value of $32.4 million. The tradename is not subject to amortization but will be evaluated at least annually for impairment. Second, we recognized an intangible asset of $1.4 million for favorable City Gear leases and a liability of $3.4 million for unfavorable City Gear leases (as compared to prevailing markets). Under ASU Topic 842, these intangible lease assets and lease liabilities became a component of the ROU asset as of February 3, 2019. (~~See Note 2, Recent Accounting Pronouncements~~)

The results of operations of City Gear are included in our results of operations beginning on November 5, 2018. From February 3, 2019 through May 4, 2019, City Gear generated net sales of $59.4 million. Also, $1.0 million related to the amortization of the step-up of the inventory value related to purchase accounting was included in gross margin for the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2019.

The following unaudited consolidated pro forma summary has been prepared by adjusting the Company’s historical data to give effect to the City Gear acquisition as if it had occurred on January 29, 2017 (the beginning of Hibbett’s fiscal year ended February 3, 2018).

~~The results for the 13 weeks ended May 5, 2018 have been primarily adjusted to include:~~

~~the pro forma impact of amortization of intangible assets;~~

~~the depreciation of property and equipment, based on purchase price allocations;~~

~~the pro forma impact of additional interest expense relating to the acquisition;~~

~~the pro forma impact of acquisition-related costs incurred by the Company directly attributable to the transaction; and~~

~~the pro forma tax effect of income taxes on the above adjustments.~~

~~Results have been adjusted to exclude the impact of acquisition-related expenses and purchase accounting adjustments incurred by the Company that are directly attributable to the transaction.~~

The pro forma financial information has been prepared for comparative purposes only and includes certain adjustments, as noted above. The adjustments are based on estimates derived from currently available information and not indicative of the results of operations that would have occurred if the City Gear acquisition had been completed on the date indicated. They do not reflect the effect of costs or synergies that were expected to result from the integration of the City Gear acquisition.

4.	~~Leases~~

We lease all of our retail store locations; nearly all of which are operating leases. Store leases typically provide for initial terms of five to ten years. Many of our store leases contain the following provisions:

•scheduled increases in rent payments over the lease term,

•tenant inducements,

•free rent periods,

•contingent rent based on net sales in excess of stipulated amounts,

•one or more renewal options at our discretion, and

•payments for common area maintenance, insurance and real estate taxes, most of which are variable in nature.

~~Index~~

~~Our store leases typically contain one or more options for us to renew the lease beyond the initial five to ten year term. In addition, most~~Most of our store leases contain provisions that allow for early termination between the third and fifth year of the term if predetermined sales levels are not met, or upon the occurrence of other specified contingent events. When we have the option to extend the lease term (including by not exercising an available termination option) or purchase the leased asset, and it is reasonably certain that we will do so, we consider these options in determining the classification and measurement of the lease. However, generally at ~~store~~ lease commencement, it is not reasonably certain that we will exercise an extension or purchase option. ~~When considering~~For contingent termination provisions, we generally consider both the likelihood of the contingency occurring in addition to the economic factors we consider when assessing any other termination or renewal option.

We also lease certain office space, office equipment and transportation equipment under operating and finance leases. Generally, these leases have initial terms of two to six years.

We determine whether a contract is or contains a lease at contract inception. ~~Beginning in Fiscal~~We have lease agreements that contain both lease and non-lease components. For store leases, we account for the lease components together with the non-lease components, such as common area maintenance. For office and transportation equipment leases, we separate the non-lease components from the lease components.

In April 2020, ~~operating~~the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued a staff question-and-answer document (Staff Q&A) to respond to some frequently asked questions about accounting for lease ~~liabilities are recognized based on~~concessions related to the ~~present value~~effects of ~~remaining fixed~~the COVID-19 pandemic. Under current U.S. GAAP, subsequent changes to lease payments ~~over~~that are not stipulated in the original lease ~~term. Operating~~are generally accounted for as lease ~~ROU assets are recognized based on~~modifications under ASC Topic 842, Leases. The Staff Q&A grants relief by allowing companies to make an accounting policy election to not evaluate lease concessions related to the calculated lease liability, as adjusted for lease prepayments, initial direct costs and landlord incentives. Because the implicit rate is generally not readily determinable for our leases, we use our estimated incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate for the leases when measuring operating lease liabilities. The incremental borrowing rate represents an estimateeffects of the ~~interest rate we would incur at~~COVID-19 pandemic as lease ~~commencement~~modifications. We did not elect to ~~borrow an amount equal to the~~utilize this alternative accounting.

Our lease payments on a collateralized basis over a similar term as the lease term. Operating lease cost for fixed lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Variable lease payments are generally expensed as incurred.

~~None of our leases~~agreements do not contain material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. ROU lease assets are periodically reviewed for impairment losses. The Company uses the long-lived assets impairment guidance in ASC Subtopic 360-10, Property, Plant, and Equipment - Overall, to determine when to test ROU assets (or asset groups that contain one or more ROU assets) for impairment, whether ROU assets are impaired, and if so, the amount of the impairment loss to recognize. ~~This review resulted in a related~~An asset group impairment charge of approximately $4.1 million and $1.1 million was recognized in the ~~13 weeks~~13-weeks ended May 2, 2020 and May 4, ~~2019.~~

5.	4. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

We utilize a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

Level I – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level II – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level I.

Index

Level III– Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The table below segregates all financial assets and financial liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis (at least annually) into the most appropriate level within the fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used to determine the fair value as of May ~~4, 2019~~2, 2020, February 1, 2020 and ~~February 2,~~May 4, 2019 (in thousands):

The total earnout was valued using a Monte Carlo simulation analysis in a risk-neutral framework with assumptions for volatility, risk-free rate and dividend yield. The earnout is re-valued each quarter and any change in valuation is recognized in our statements of operations. As a result of the revaluation for the ~~13 weeks~~13-weeks ended May 2, 2020, a decrease of $11.0 million was recognized in store operating, selling and administrative expenses. As a result of the revaluation for the 13-weeks ended May 4, 2019, an increase of $0.6 million was recognized in store operating, selling and administrative expenses.

5. Debt

In October 2018, we entered into amended agreements with Bank of America, N.A. and Regions Bank providing for an aggregate amount of credit available to us under each line of credit of $50.0 million for the purpose of financing a portion of the cash purchase price payable in the acquisition of City Gear.

The terms of the Bank of America facility ~~allow~~allowed for borrowings up to $50.0 million with an interest rate agreed upon between the lender and us at the time a loan is made. The terms of the Regions Bank facility ~~allow~~allowed for borrowings up to $50.0 million with an interest rate at one-month LIBOR plus 1.5%. Both facilities ~~are~~were unsecured, due on demand and set to expire in October 2021. Under the provisions of both facilities, we dodid not pay commitment fees. However, both ~~are~~were subject to negative pledge agreements that, among other things, ~~restrict~~restricted liens or transfers of assets including inventory, tangible or intangible personal property and land and land improvements.

In March 2020, we borrowed $50.0 million under these credit agreements as a precautionary measure in order to increase our cash position and preserve financial flexibility in light of current uncertainty in the global markets resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. The proceeds from such borrowings were used for working capital, capital expenditures and general corporate purposes.

On April 16, 2020, we entered into the Second Amended and Restated Note with Regions Bank (Amended Credit Facility) that provides for an aggregate amount of credit available to us of $75.0 million. The Amended Credit Facility supersedes the Regions Bank credit agreement dated October 2018, matures April 19, 2021, and is secured by all assets of the Company with the exception of real property. Simultaneous to the execution of the Amended Credit Facility, the $50.0 million outstanding under the previous credit agreements were paid in full, the Bank of America credit agreement dated October 2018 was terminated and we incurred borrowings under the Amended Credit Facility of $50.0 million.

Borrowings under the Amended Credit Facility bear interest at the one-month LIBOR rate plus 2.5% from April 16, 2020 through October 16, 2020 and the one-month LIBOR rate plus 3.0% from October 17, 2020 through the maturity date. There were no origination fees and we do not pay any commitment fees. The Amended Credit Facility includes a loan fee of $50,000 payable to Regions Bank at the maturity date or if the agreement is terminated prior to the maturity date for any reason

Index

including due to an event of default. The loan fee will be waived if the Amended Credit Facility is terminated due to refinancing of the loan with an asset-based loan facility provided by Regions Bank.

The Amended Credit Facility has one financial covenant which requires us to maintain inventory with a minimum value of $150.0 million at all times (measured at the lower of cost or market consistent with generally accepted accounting principles). As of May 2, 2020, we were in compliance with this covenant. The Amended Credit Facility also restricts us from engaging in certain acquisitions and from incurring indebtedness, other than certain customary permitted indebtedness related to business operations.

There were 58 days during the 13-weeks ended May 2, 2020, where we incurred borrowings against all credit facilities for an average and maximum borrowing of $38.7 million and $50.0 million, respectively. The average interest rate during the 13-weeks ended May 2, 2020 was 3.22%. At May 2, 2020, a total of $25.0 million was available to us from the Amended Credit Facility.

There were 331 days during the 52-weeks ended February 1, 2020, where we incurred borrowings against these credit facilities for an average and maximum borrowing of $21.5 million and $38.0 million, respectively, and an average interest rate of 3.73%. There were 91 days during the ~~13 weeks~~13-weeks ended May 4, 2019 where we incurred borrowings against ~~our~~these credit facilities ~~with Bank of America and Regions Bank~~ for an average and maximum borrowing of $30.9 million and $35.0 million, respectively, and an average interest rate of 4.00%. ~~There~~

On June 5, 2020, we entered into a Note Modification Agreement that extends the maturity date of the Amended Credit Facility from April 19, 2021 to July 18, 2021. No other provisions of the Amended Credit Facility were 95 days during the 52 weeks ended February 2, 2019, where we incurred borrowings against these credit facilities for an average and maximum borrowing of $45.4 million and $75.0 million, respectively, and an average interest rate of 3.70%. At May 4, 2019, a total of $74.0 million was available to us from these facilities.affected.

At May ~~4, 2019,~~2, 2020, the total compensation costs related to ~~nonvested~~unvested restricted stock unit awards not yet recognized was ~~$7.3~~$7.9 million and the weighted-average period over which such awards are expected to be recognized was 2.9 years. There were no compensation costs related to ~~nonvested~~unvested stock options at May ~~4, 2019.~~

2, 2020.

Under the 2012 Non-Employee Director Equity Plan (2012 Plan), ~~a total of 13,858 and 4,435~~0 shares of our common stock were awarded during the ~~13 weeks~~13-weeks ended May 2, 2020. A total of 13,858 shares of our common stock were awarded during the 13-weeks ended May 4, 2019, ~~and May 5, 2018, respectively,~~ as part of the annual equity award to directors in the first quarter.

During the 13-weeks ended May 2, 2020 and May 4, 2019, 27,000 and 16,798 stock options were granted, respectively. The weighted-average grant date fair value of stock options granted during the ~~13 weeks~~13-weeks ended May 2, 2020 and May 4, 2019 was $3.33 and ~~May 5, 2018 was~~ $5.46 ~~and $7.15~~ per share, respectively.

8.	7. Earnings Per Share

The computation of basic earnings per share (EPS) is based on the number of weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. The computation of diluted EPS is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding plus the incremental shares that would be outstanding assuming exercise of dilutive stock options and issuance of restricted stock. The number of incremental shares is calculated by applying the treasury stock method. The following table sets forth the weighted average common shares outstanding (in thousands):

For the ~~13 weeks~~13-weeks ended May 2, 2020, all stock-based awards were excluded from the computation of diluted weighted-average common shares and common share equivalents outstanding because of their anti-dilutive effect. For the 13-weeks ended May 4, 2019, we excluded 253,142 options from the computation of diluted weighted-average common shares and common share equivalents outstanding because of their anti-dilutive effect. ~~For the 13 weeks ended May 5, 2018,~~

During periods of net income, we ~~excluded 225,534 options from the computation of diluted weighted-average common shares and common share equivalents outstanding because of their~~exclude anti-dilutive ~~effect.~~

~~We also excluded 72,300 nonvested stock~~stock-based awards granted to certain employees from the computation of diluted weighted-average common shares and common share equivalents outstanding because they are subject to certain performance-based annual vesting conditions which had not been achieved by ~~May 4, 2019.

9.	8. Stock Repurchase Activity

In November 2018, the Board of Directors (Board) authorized the extension of our Stock Repurchase Program (Program) in the amount of $300.0 million to repurchase our common stock through ~~January~~Jan. 29, 2022. The Program authorizes repurchases of our common stock in open market or negotiated transactions, with the amount and timing of repurchases dependent on market conditions and at the discretion of our management. In addition to the Program, we also acquire shares of our common stock from holders of restricted stock unit awards to satisfy tax withholding requirements due at vesting. Shares acquired from holders of restricted stock unit awards to satisfy tax withholding requirements do not reduce the Program authorization.

~~Index~~

During the 13-weeks ended May 2, 2020, we repurchased 428,018 shares of our common stock under a 10b5-1 plan at a cost of $9.7 million under the Program and acquired 30,895 shares from holders of restricted stock unit awards to satisfy tax

withholding requirements of $0.4 million. During the 13-weeks ended May 4, 2019, we repurchased 230,000 shares of our common stock at a cost of $4.8 million ~~under the Program~~ and acquired 29,432 shares from holders of restricted stock unit awards to satisfy tax withholding requirements of $0.6 million. During the 13 weeks ended May 5, 2018, we repurchased 21,534 shares of our common stock at a cost of $0.5 million under the Program and acquired 18,765 shares from holders of restricted stock unit awards to satisfy tax withholding requirements of $0.4 million.

9. Commitments and Contingencies

Annual Bonuses and Equity Incentive Awards.

Specified officers and corporate employees of our Company are eligible to receive annual bonuses, based on measures of Company operating performance. ~~At May 4, 2019~~For Fiscal 2021, the Compensation Committee of our Board again based the short-term cash incentive on earnings before interest and ~~February 2, 2019, there was $1.5 million and $3.9 million, respectively,~~taxes (EBIT) for Fiscal 2021 but in light of ~~annual~~the COVID-19 pandemic, the Compensation Committee expects that adjustments to the set goal will be made in its discretion. Annual bonus related expenses included in accrued payroll expenses on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance ~~sheets.~~sheets was $0.9 million, $8.7 million and $1.5 million at May 2, 2020, February 1, 2020 and May 4, 2019, respectively.

In addition, the Compensation Committee of the Board has placed performance criteria on awards of restricted stock units (PSUs) to our “named executive officers” as determined in accordance with Item 402(a) of Regulation S-K. The performance criteria are tied to performance targets with respect to future return on invested capital and earnings before interest and taxes over a specified period of time. These PSUs are expensed under the provisions of ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, and are evaluated each quarter to determine the probability that the performance conditions set within will be met.

Subsequent to May 4, 2019, our President and CEO, Jeffry Rosenthal, entered into a Retirement Agreement (Agreement) with the Company. The Agreement provides, among other things, a salary continuation of $0.6 million payable after his effective retirement date in equal installments over one year and a lump sum cash payment equal Due to the ~~number~~current macroeconomic environment and unprecedented disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the resulting significant global market decline, and its effect on the value of ~~outstanding~~our common stock, the Compensation Committee decided to make adjustments to the compensation structure for Fiscal 2021. For Fiscal 2021 only, equity awards ~~granted~~ to ~~Mr. Rosenthal multiplied by a computed value defined in the Agreement, but not less than $1.0 million.~~

executive officers were service-based only, with no performance criteria.

Legal Proceedings and Other Contingencies.

If we believe that a loss is both probable and estimable for a particular matter, the loss is accrued in accordance with the requirements of ASC Topic 450, Contingencies. No material amounts were accrued at May ~~4, 2019~~2, 2020, February 1, 2020 or ~~February 2,~~May 4, 2019 pertaining to legal proceedings or other contingencies.

~~11.~~

10. Income Taxes

Our effective tax rate is based on expected annual income, statutory tax rates and tax planning opportunities available in the various jurisdictions in which we operate. For interim financial reporting, we estimate the annual effective tax rate based on expected taxable income or loss for the full year and record a quarterly income tax provision (benefit) in accordance with the anticipated annual effective rate and adjust for discrete items. We update the estimates of the taxable income or loss throughout the year as new information becomes available, including year-to-date financial results. This process often results in a change to our expected effective tax rate for the year. When this occurs, we adjust the income tax provision (benefit) during the quarter in which the change in estimate occurs so that the year-to-date provision reflects the expected annual effective tax rate.

We apply the provisions of ASC Subtopic 740-10 in accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. In accordance with ASC Subtopic 740-10, we recognize a tax benefit associated with an uncertain tax position when, in our judgment, it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination by a taxing authority. For a tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, we initially and subsequently measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that we judge to have a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with a taxing authority. Our liability associated with unrecognized tax benefits is adjusted periodically due to changing circumstances, such as the progress of tax audits, case law developments and new or emerging legislation. Such adjustments are recognized entirely in the period in which they are identified. Our effective tax rate includes the net impact of changes in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits and subsequent adjustments as considered appropriate by management.

~~Index~~

At May ~~4, 2019,~~2, 2020, we had a liability of ~~$1.4~~$1.0 million associated with unrecognized tax benefits. We file income tax returns in ~~the~~ U.S. federal and various state jurisdictions. Generally, we are not subject to changes in income taxes by the U.S. federal taxing jurisdiction for years prior to Fiscal ~~2016~~2017 or by most state taxing jurisdictions for years prior to Fiscal ~~2015.~~2016.

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) was enacted on March 27, 2020. The CARES Act includes, among other things, refundable payroll tax credits, deferral of employer-side social security payments, net operating loss carryback periods, alternative minimum tax credit refunds, modifications to the net interest deduction limitations, and

Index

technical amendments regarding the income tax depreciation of qualified improvement property placed in service after December 31, 2017. We have recognized an income tax benefit of $1.9 million in the 13-weeks ended May 2, 2020, due to enactment of the CARES Act.

11. Related-Party Transactions

Adapting to the COVID-19 Business Environment

Throughout this challenging time, the Company was able to navigate a rapidly changing retail landscape by leveraging omni-channel and distribution capabilities, having access to and availability of in-demand products, taking decisive action to protect liquidity and demonstrating the ability to reopen stores quickly when circumstances allowed. A few highlights include:

•Total comparable sales were down less than 20% versus the prior year despite having our store fleet open for approximately 60% of the total available selling days in the quarter.

•Digital traffic was up over 80% for the quarter compared to the prior year. Over 40% of online sales in the second half of the quarter were new customers.

•Inventory allocation systems and distribution infrastructure ramped up to support increased online demand.

•The Merchandise team proactively managed the flow of goods in collaboration with our vendor partners, resulting in a decrease in year-over-year inventory and an inventory balance that remained in line with demand.

•We worked with merchandise and non-merchandise vendors to extend terms.

•We borrowed $50.0 million under our two unsecured, demand lines of credit as a precautionary measure in order to increase our cash position and preserve financial flexibility, and subsequently converted these lines of credit into a single secured line of credit with a one-year term.

•Nearly 700 stores were open to the public at the end of the quarter and over 1,000 are open as of the date of this filing with a majority of them reporting significant comparable sales increases upon their reopening.

In addition, the Company continues to be proactive in protecting the health and safety of our team members and customers and all locations are subject to the following safety guidelines:

•Stores are being extensively cleaned on a daily basis.

•The number of customers allowed in stores open to the public is limited and social distancing is being practiced and maintained.

•Store employees or customers exhibiting any symptoms are not permitted to enter the store.

•Hand sanitizer is readily available to all team members and customers.

•Curbside pick-up is available for all Buy Online, Pick-up In-Store orders where allowed.

•Contactless payment is available in all stores.

The COVID-19 pandemic remains a rapidly evolving situation. We continue to actively monitor developments that may cause us to take further actions that alter our business operations as may be required by federal, state or local authorities or that we determine are in the best interests of our team members, customers, suppliers and stockholders.

While we cannot predict the duration or the severity of the COVID-19 pandemic or the impact it will have on our business, results of operations or liquidity, it is important to share the impact to-date, how our response is progressing, and how our results and financial condition may change going forward.

General Overview

Hibbett Sports, Inc. is a leading athletic-inspired fashion retailer primarily located in small and mid-sized communities across the country. Founded in 1945, Hibbett has a rich history of convenient locations, personalized customer service and access to coveted footwear, apparel and equipment from top brands like Nike, Jordan, Adidas and Under Armour. Consumers can browse styles, find new releases, shop looks and make purchases online or in their nearest store or by visiting www.hibbett.comor ~~www.citygear.com.~~ ~~Follow~~www.citygear.com and can follow us ~~@hibbettsports~~@HibbettSports and ~~@citygear.~~@CityGear. We became a public company in October 1996. As of May ~~4, 2019,~~2, 2020, we operated a total of ~~1,144~~1,078 retail stores in 35 states composed of ~~985~~908 Hibbett Sports stores, ~~141~~152 City Gear stores and 18 Sports Additions athletic shoe stores.

Our Hibbett Sports stores average ~~5,700~~5,800 square feet and are located primarily in strip centers, which are usually near a major chain retailer such as Wal-Mart. Our City Gear stores average 5,000 square feet and are located primarily in strip centers. OfAs of May 2, 2020, our store base ~~78% are~~consisted of 798 stores located in strip centers, ~~which includes~~31 free-standing stores and ~~22% are in~~249 enclosed mall ~~locations as of May 4, 2019.~~locations.

Ourprimary merchandising strategy is to provide ~~underserved markets~~ a broad assortment of quality brand name footwear, apparel, accessories and ~~athletic~~team sports equipment at competitive prices in conveniently located full-service environment. In July 2017, we successfully launched our e-commerce website. We continue to grow our online business aggressively, while enhancing our stores ~~and online.~~to imporve the overall customer experience. We believe that the breadth and depth of our brand name merchandise consistently exceeds the product selection carried by most of our competitors, particularly in our smaller markets. Many of these brand name products are highly technical and require expert sales assistance. We continuously educate our sales staff on new products and trends through coordinated efforts with our vendors.

As the retail environment continues to evolve, we remain focused on improving the productivity of the store base while continuing to grow our omni-channel business to serve customers where and when they want to shop and improve the overall customer experience. As a result, subsequent to the year ended February 2, 2019, we decided to close approximately 95 underperforming Hibbett stores during Fiscal 2020, while opening 10 to 15 new Hibbett and City Gear stores in more relevant locations. We expect these closures will result in non-recurring impairment and store closure charges in the range of $0.15 to $0.20 per diluted share in Fiscal 2020.

Comparable sales data for the periods presented reflects sales for our retail stores open throughout the entire period and the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year, and e-commerce sales. ~~Our~~We consider comparable store sales to be a key indicator of our current performance; measuring the growth in sales and sales productivity of existing stores. Management believes that positive comparable store sales contribute to greater leveraging of operating costs, particularly payroll and occupancy costs, while negative comparable store sales contribute to de-leveraging of costs. Comparable store sales also have a direct impact on our total net sales and the level of cash flow.

Inclusion of our City Gear stores ~~will not be included~~began in ~~comparable store sales data until~~ the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2020. If a store remodel, relocation or expansion results in the store being closed for a significant period of time, its sales are removed from the comparable sales base until it has been open a full 12 months. During the ~~13 weeks~~13-weeks ended May ~~4, 2019,~~2, 2020, we included ~~970~~1,047 stores in comparable sales. We did not exclude any stores from the comparable sales base that were temporarily closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Executive Summary

Net sales for the ~~13 weeks~~13-weeks ended May 2, 2020, decreased 21.4% to $269.8 million compared with $343.3 million for the 13-weeks ended May 4, ~~2019, increased 25.0% to $343.3 million compared with $274.7 million for the 13 weeks ended May 5, 2018.~~2019.

The decrease in the gross margin percentage was ~~mainly~~ due to ~~increased freight costs from strong~~the higher concentration of e-commerce sales to brick and mortar sales in addition to a ~~$1.0~~$5.1 million increase in our lower of cost or net realizable value (LCM) inventory reserve.

The main drivers of the SG&A increase were non-cash ~~expense incurred to amortize an inventory step-up value~~impairment charges for goodwill of $19.7 million, City Gear tradename of $8.9 million and other asset impairment of $4.1 million, partially offset by a reduction of $11.0 million for the second year earnout liability related to the ~~acquisition of~~ City Gear ~~partially offset by leverage of logistics and store occupancy expenses associated with higher net sales.~~

About Non-GAAP Measures

This MD&A includes certain non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted net income, earnings per share, gross margin and SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales. Management believes ~~that~~these non-GAAP ~~net income, earnings per share, gross margin~~financial measures are useful to investors to facilitate comparisons of our current financial results to historical operations and ~~SG&A expenses~~the financial results of peer companies, as ~~a percentage of net sales, which~~they exclude the effects of ~~non-recurring~~items that may not be indicative of, or are unrelated to, our underlying operating results, such as expenses related to the COVID-19 pandemic, the acquisition of City Gear and our accelerated store closure plan ~~are useful measures for providing more accurate comparisons~~in Fiscal 2020. The costs related to the COVID-19 pandemic include impairment charges of ~~our current financial results to historical operations, forward looking guidance~~goodwill, tradename and ~~the financial results~~other assets, paid-not-worked labor costs net of ~~peer companies.~~related tax credits and excess LCM inventory reserve charges. The ~~non-recurring~~ costs related to the acquisition of City Gear include amortization of inventory step-up value, professional service fees, and legal and accounting fees. The change in valuation of the contingent earnout ~~legal~~was included in COVID-19 costs for the 13-weeks ended May 2, 2020 and ~~accounting fees. In future periods, such acquisition-related~~in acquisition of City Gear costs ~~may include one or more of~~for the ~~following categories of expenses: (i) transition and integration costs, (ii) professional service fees and expenses and (iii) acquisition-related adjustments. Future non-recurring costs~~13-weeks ended May 4, 2019.

While ~~we use~~our management uses these non-GAAP financial measures as a tool to enhance ~~our understanding of~~their ability to assess certain aspects of our financial performance, our management does not consider these measures to be a substitute for, or superior to, the information provided by GAAP financial statements. Consistent with this approach, we believe that disclosing non-GAAP financial measures to the readers of our financial statements provides such readers with useful supplemental data that, while not a substitute for GAAP financial statements, allows for greater transparency in the review of our financial and operational performance. It should be noted as well that our non-GAAP information may be different from the non-GAAP information provided by other companies.

Reconciliations of our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for the 13 weeks ended May 2, 2020 and May 4, 2019, respectively as reported on a GAAP basis, to statements of operations for the same period prepared on a non-GAAP basis, are provided below under the heading “Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

Accessories experienced a high single-digit increase with strong performance in items that had strong sneaker-connectivity to our footwear business. Licensed business remains soft, down high single-digits.

~~Equipment experienced a mid single-digit decline due to weakness in football, baseball bats and inflatables, partially offset by positive results in softball, volleyball and track.~~

Gross margin. Cost of goods sold includes the cost of merchandise, occupancy costs for stores, occupancy and operating costs for our wholesale and logistics facility and ship-to-home freight.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Impact of COVID-19 on Liquidity

In response to the uncertain market conditions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, we have enhanced our liquidity position through the following actions:

•In March 2020, we borrowed $50.0 million under our two unsecured, demand lines of credit as a precautionary measure in order to increase our cash position and preserve financial flexibility;

•In April 2020, we converted these lines of credit into a single secured line of credit with a one-year term;

•We worked with merchandise and non-merchandise vendors to extend terms; and

•We temporarily suspended our stock repurchase program.

Analysis of Cash Flows

Our capital requirements relate primarily to new store openings, stock repurchases, facilities and systems to support company growth and working capital requirements. Our working capital requirements are somewhat seasonal in nature and typically reach their peak near the end of the third and the beginning of the fourth quarters of our fiscal year. Historically, we have funded our cash requirements primarily through our cash flow from operations and occasionally from borrowings under our credit facilities. We use excess cash to invest in interest-bearing securities and money market accounts, as well as to offset bank fees.

Our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows are summarized as follows (in thousands):

Operating Activities.

Cash flow from operations is seasonal in our business. Typically, we use cash flow from operations to increase inventory in advance of peak selling seasons, such as winter holidays, the spring sales period and late summer back-to-school shopping. Inventory levels are reduced in connection with higher sales during the peak selling seasons and this inventory reduction, combined with proportionately higher net income, typically produces a positive cash flow.

~~Index~~

Net cash provided by operating activities was ~~$72.1~~$3.9 million for the ~~13 weeks~~13-weeks ended May ~~4, 2019~~2, 2020 compared with net cash provided by operating activities of ~~$47.0~~$72.1 million for the ~~13 weeks~~13-weeks ended May ~~5, 2018.~~4, 2019. Operating activities consist primarily of net income, adjusted for certain non-cash items and changes in operating assets and liabilities. Adjustments to net income for non-cash items include depreciation and amortization, valuation of the contingent earnout liability, impairments, deferred income taxes, amortization of inventory step-up valuation from the City Gear opening balance sheet, and stock-based compensation. Net cash provided by operating activities for May ~~4, 2019~~2, 2020 and May ~~5, 2018~~4, 2019 was impacted by the following:

•Net income used cash of $15.3 million and provided cash of $27.9 million during the 13-weeks ended May 2, 2020 and ~~$21.5~~May 4, 2019, respectively.

•Net inventories decreased $46.0 million and $30.8 million during the ~~13 weeks~~13-weeks ended May 2, 2020 and May 4, 2019, ~~and May 5, 2018,~~ respectively.

~~Net inventories decreased $30.8 million and $25.1 million~~ Inventory levels typically decline during the ~~13 weeks ended May 4, 2019 and May 5, 2018, respectively, partially~~first quarter, but the decrease was more pronounced this year due to ~~a lower store base resulting from store closures.~~

Depreciation expense ~~increased in each period~~decreased due to ~~the City Gear acquisition, investments in facilities and information technology systems, and accelerated depreciation taken from an increase in~~a lower store ~~closures.~~sales base.

•Other non-cash adjustments to net income for the 13-weeks ended May 2, 2020 included ~~$1.5~~$32.6 million of impairment charges ~~$1.0 million inventory amortization related to~~of intangible assets resulting from a significant decrease in the ~~acquisition~~market valuation of ~~City Gear and $0.6~~the Company during the pandemic, partially offset by an $11.0 million change in the valuation of the contingent earnout related to City Gear.

•The change in receivables of $11.9 million resulted primarily from employee retention credits under the CARES Act and an increase in receivables related to strong e-commerce sales.

Investing Activities.

Net cash used in investing activities in the ~~13 weeks~~13-weeks ended May ~~4, 2019~~2, 2020 totaled ~~$2.5~~$3.4 million compared with net cash used in investing activities of ~~$4.1~~$2.5 million in the ~~13 weeks~~13-weeks ended May ~~5, 2018.~~4, 2019. Capital expenditures used $4.1 million of cash in the13-weeks ended May 2, 2020 versus $2.5 million of cash in the ~~13 weeks~~13-weeks ended May 4, ~~2019 versus $4.1 million of cash in the 13 weeks ended May 5, 2018.~~2019. Capital expenditures were used mainly to open new stores, remodel, expand or relocate existing stores, and continued investment in digital initiatives.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements.

We have not provided any financial guarantees as of May ~~4, 2019.~~2, 2020. All merchandise purchase obligations are cancelable. We have not created, and are not party to, any special-purpose or off-balance sheet entities for the purpose of raising capital, incurring debt or operating our business. We do not have any arrangements or relationships with entities that are not included in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Quarterly and Seasonal Fluctuations

We experience seasonal fluctuations in our net sales and results of operations. We typically experience higher net sales in early spring due to spring sports and annual tax refunds, late summer due to back-to-school shopping and winter due to holiday shopping. In addition, our quarterly results of operations may fluctuate significantly as a result of a variety of factors, including

weather fluctuations, the timing of high demand footwear launches, demand for merchandise driven by local interest in sporting events, back-to-school sales and the timing of sales tax holidays and annual income tax refunds.

Although our operations are influenced by general economic conditions, we do not believe that, historically, inflation has had a material impact on our results of operations as we are generally able to pass along inflationary increases in costs to our customers.

Investment and Credit Availability Risk

We manage cash and cash equivalents in various institutions at levels beyond federally insured limits per institution, and we purchase investments not guaranteed by the FDIC. Accordingly, there is a risk that we will not recover the full principal of our investments or that their liquidity may be diminished. In an attempt to mitigate this risk, our investment policy emphasizes preservation of principal and liquidity.

We also have a financial ~~institutions~~institution that ~~are~~is committed to provide loans under our credit ~~facilities.~~facility.

Interest Rate Risk

Our exposure to market risks results primarily from fluctuations in interest rates. There have been no material changes to our exposure to market risks from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February ~~2, 2019~~1, 2020 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April ~~18, 2019.~~16, 2020.

Borrowing under the Amended Credit Facility uses the London Interbank Offering Rate (LIBOR) as a benchmark for establishing the interest rate. LIBOR has been the subject of recent national, international and other regulatory guidance and proposals for reform, and the financial industry is currently transitioning away from LIBOR as a benchmark for the interbank lending market. Due to the short-term nature of our current secured credit facility, the potential transition away from LIBOR does not impact us.

ITEM 1A. Risk Factors.

We operate in an environment that involves a number of risks and uncertainties which are described in our Form 10-K for the year ended February ~~2, 2019.~~1, 2020. If any of the risks described in our Fiscal ~~2018~~2020 Form 10-K were to actually occur, our business, ~~operating~~ results of operations and financial results could be adversely affected. There were no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February ~~2, 2019.~~1, 2020, except as the supplemental information set forth below.

The continuing impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic are highly unpredictable, volatile, and uncertain, and could continue to adversely affect our business operations, demand for our products and services, our costs of doing business, availability of labor, access to inventory, supply chain operations, our ability to predict future performance, our exposure to litigation, and our financial performance, among other things.

The COVID-19 pandemic has created significant public health concerns as well as economic disruption, uncertainty, and volatility, all of which have impacted and may continue to adversely impact our business, results of operations, liquidity, cash flow and financial condition. While we have taken numerous steps to mitigate the impact of the pandemic on our results of operations, there can be no assurance that these efforts will be successful.

Due to numerous uncertainties and factors beyond our control, we are unable to predict the impact that COVID-19 will have going forward on our business, results of operations, liquidity, cash flows, and financial condition. These factors and uncertainties include, but are not limited to:

•the severity and duration of the pandemic, including whether there is a “second wave” or other additional periods of increases or spikes in the number of COVID-19 cases in future periods in the communities or states we operate;

•the rapidly changing and fluid circumstances caused by the pandemic and our ability to respond quickly enough or appropriately to those circumstances;

•the duration and degree of governmental, business or other actions in response to the pandemic, including but not limited to quarantine or shelter-in-place measures; restrictions on our operations up to and including complete or partial closure of our stores and distribution centers; economic measures; access to unemployment compensation; fiscal policy changes; or additional measures that may yet be effected;

•the health of, and effect of, the pandemic on our team members and our ability to maintain staffing needs to effectively operate our business;

•evolving macroeconomic factors, including general economic uncertainty, unemployment rates, and recessionary pressures;

•our ability to enter into rent deferral arrangements with our landlords;

•our ability to move existing inventory, including potentially having to sell existing inventory at a discount or write-down of value of inventory, and the costs and expenses of updating and replacing inventory;

•our ability to attract customers to our stores when, or if, they reopen, given the risks, or perceived risks, of gathering in public places;

•the impact of the pandemic and related economic uncertainty on consumer confidence, economic well-being, spending, and shopping behaviors, both during and after the crisis;

•impacts – financial, operational or otherwise – on our supply chain, including manufacturers or suppliers of our products and logistics or transportation providers;

•unknown consequences on our business performance and strategic initiatives stemming from the substantial investment of time and other resources to the pandemic response, including potential delays in or adjustments to our strategic investments;

•the incremental costs of doing business during and/or after the crisis;

•volatility in the credit and financial markets during and after the pandemic;

•the potential effects on our internal control environment and data security as a result of changes to a remote work environment;

•the impact of regulatory and judicial changes in liability for workers compensation;

•potential increases in insurance premiums, medical claims costs, and workers’ compensation claim costs;

•the availability of, and prevalence of access to, effective medical treatments and vaccines for COVID-19;

•the impact of litigation or claims from customers, team members, suppliers, regulators or other third parties relating to COVID-19 or our actions in response thereto;

•the pace of recovery when the pandemic subsides; and

•the long-term impact of the pandemic on our business.

~~ITEM 2.~~

~~Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.~~

The above factors and uncertainties, or others of which we are not currently aware, may result in additional adverse impacts to our business, results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition.

In addition to the factors above, the COVID-19 pandemic has subjected our business to a number of risks, including, but not limited to those discussed below:

Team Member and Customer Safety-Related Risks. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we have taken a number of actions across our business to help protect our team members, customers, and others in the communities we serve. These measures include, among other things, adjusted store hours; remote working opportunities for our store support center, increased cleaning and sanitizing measures; limits on customer traffic in stores to maintain physical and social distancing protocols; other physical and social distancing efforts such as markings on floors, signage and plexiglass shields; providing masks to team members in stores, store support center and distribution centers; offering curbside pick-up from stores; and instituting contactless payment in all stores.

We have also taken other steps to support our team members, including expanding our paid time off policy to help alleviate some of the challenges our team members are facing as a result of COVID-19 and expanding health care benefits. The actions that we have taken in response to the pandemic have resulted in incremental costs, and we expect that we will continue to incur additional costs due to the pandemic going forward, which in turn will have an adverse impact on our results of operations.

The health and safety of our team members and customers are of primary concern to our management team. However, due to the unpredictable nature of COVID-19 and the consequences of our actions, we may see unexpected outcomes from our added safety measures. For example, if we do not respond appropriately to the pandemic, or if our customers do not participate in social distancing and other safety measures, the well-being of our team members and customers could be at risk. Furthermore, any failure to appropriately respond, or the perception of an inadequate response, could cause reputational harm to our brand and/or subject us to claims and litigation from team members, customers, suppliers, regulators or other third parties. Additionally, a future outbreak of confirmed cases of COVID-19 in our stores, store support center or distribution centers could result in temporary or sustained workforce shortages or facility closures, which would negatively impact our business and results of operations.

Additionally, some jurisdictions have taken measures intended to expand the availability of workers compensation or to change the presumptions applicable to workers compensation measures. These actions may increase our exposure to workers compensation claims and increase our cost of insurance.

Information Technology-Related Risks. As a result of the pandemic and related quarantines, shelter-in-place orders, and similar restrictions, we have experienced increased demand for online purchases of products. While we have managed this increased volume to date without interruption, there are no assurances that we will continue to be able to do so. We have also had to rapidly modify certain technology to support our interconnected offerings in connection with the pandemic, such as the addition of curbside pick-up. Disruptions, failures or other performance issues with our customer-facing technology systems, either due to the increased volume or other factors, could impair the benefits they provide, adversely impact our sales, and negatively affect our relationship with our customers. In addition, as more business activities have shifted online due to COVID-19 restrictions, and as many of our store support team members are working remotely, we face an increased risk due potential failure of internal or external information technology infrastructure as well as increased cybersecurity threats and attempts to breach our security networks.

Supply Chain-Related Risks. Circumstances related to the COVID-19 pandemic have significantly impacted the global supply chain, particularly those products that are sourced from China, with restrictions and limitations on business activities causing disruption and delay. These disruptions and delays, which may expand depending on the progression of the pandemic, are placing strain on the domestic and international supply chain, which has affected and could continue to negatively affect the flow or availability of certain products. Customer demand for certain products has also fluctuated as the pandemic has progressed and customer behaviors have changed, which has challenged our ability to anticipate and/or adjust inventory levels to meet that demand. These factors have challenged our management of inventory positions as well as some delays in delivering products to our distribution centers, stores or customers. Increased demand for online purchases of products has impacted our fulfillment operations and, if it continues, could result in delays in delivering products to customers. The operation of our distribution centers and stores as fulfillment centers is crucial to our business operations.

If our distribution centers or significant number of stores experience closures or labor shortages, whether temporary or sustained, we could face adverse impacts related to the flow or availability of products to our stores and customers. Any of these circumstances could impair our ability to meet customer demand for products and result in lost sales, increased supply chain costs, or damage to our reputation.

Index

Financial and Liquidity Risks. In an effort to strengthen our liquidity position while navigating the COVID-19 pandemic, we took proactive steps during the first quarter of Fiscal 2021, including suspending our share repurchase program, converting two unsecured, demand lines of credit into a single secured line of credit with a one-year term, working with merchandise and non-merchandise vendors to extend terms, ramping up inventory allocation systems and distribution infrastructure to support increased online demand and managing the flow of goods in collaboration with our vendor partners, resulting in a decrease in year-over-year inventory and an inventory balance that remained in line with demand.

Additionally, changes in our capital allocation strategy could have adverse impacts, both short- and long-term, on our results of operations and financial position. Temporary suspension of our share repurchase program impacts our earnings per share and return on invested capital, which in turn could adversely impact our stock price.

To the extent the COVID-19 pandemic continues to adversely affect the U.S. and global economy and/or adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash flows, or financial condition, it may also have the effect of heightening other risks described in the “Risk Factors” section in our Fiscal 2020 Form 10-K, including but not limited to those related to consumer behavior and expectations, competition, brand reputation, implementation of strategic initiatives, cybersecurity threats, technology systems disruption, supply chain disruptions, labor availability and cost, litigation, and regulatory requirements.
