NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1—THE COMPANY

Nature of Business

RH, a Delaware corporation, together with its subsidiaries (collectively, “we,” “us,” or the “Company”), is a luxury home furnishings retailer that offers a growing number of categories, including furniture, lighting, textiles, bathware, décor, outdoor and garden, and child and teen furnishings. These products are sold through the Company’sour stores, catalogs and websites.

As of August 3, 2019, the Company1, 2020, we operated a total of 7068 RH Galleries and 4038 RH outlet stores in 3231 states, the District of Columbia and Canada, as well as 15 Waterworks showrooms throughout the United States and in the U.K., and had sourcing operations in Shanghai and Hong Kong.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared from the Company’sour records and, in management’sour opinion, include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, and revisions due to the adoption of the new lease accounting standard described in Note 2—Recently Issued Accounting Standards, necessary to fairly state the Company’sour financial position as of August 3, 2019,1, 2020, and the results of operations for the three and six months ended August 3, 20191, 2020 and August 4, 2018. The Company’s3, 2019. Our current fiscal year, which consists of 52 weeks, ends on February 1, 2020January 30, 2021 (“fiscal 2019”2020”).

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 management 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”) 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, intangible and other long-lived assets. Our current assessment of these estimates are included in our condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended August 1, 2020 and August 3, 2019. 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 the Company’sour Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 2, 20191, 2020 (the “2018“2019 Form 10-K”). Certain prior year amounts have been adjusted to conform to the current period presentation due to the adoption of the new lease accounting standard. Refer to Note 2—Recently Issued Accounting Standards.

The results of operations for the three and six months ended August 1, 2020 and August 3, 2019 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 novel coronavirus disease as discussed in Recent Developments—COVID-19 below.

Table of Contents

Recent Developments—COVID-19

RevisionsThe initial wave of the COVID-19 outbreak starting in March 2020 caused disruption to our business operations as we temporarily closed all of our retail locations on March 17, 2020. While our retail locations were substantially closed at the end of the first fiscal quarter on May 2, 2020, during the second fiscal quarter we have reopened substantially all of our retail locations. As of the end of the second fiscal quarter on August 1, 2020 we had reopened 66 out of 68 of our Galleries, all of our Outlets, and 8 out of 10 of our restaurants. In addition, our business has substantially recovered during the second fiscal quarter as a result of both the reopening of most of our retail locations and also due to strong consumer demand for our products.

As previously disclosedOur global supply chain has not fully recovered from the impact of the COVID-19 dislocation. Despite the strong growth in consumer demand in our Annual Report on Form 10-K as of and for the year ended February 2, 2019,business during the thirdsecond fiscal quarter, revenue growth has lagged the increase in customer orders. As manufacturing and inventory receipts catch up with this backlog, we expect this demand will convert into revenue in the next several quarters as our supply chain recalibrates to the new level of fiscal 2018, management determinedour business.

While we have continued to serve our customers and operate our business through the initial phase of the COVID-19 health crisis, and have now substantially reopened our retail locations in the U.S. and Canada, there can be no assurance that future events will not have an impact on our business, results of operations or financial condition since the Company had incorrectly reportedextent and duration of the impact duringhealth crisis remains uncertain. Future adverse developments in connection with the COVID-19 crisis, including additional waves of COVID-19 outbreaks, evolving international, federal, state and local restrictions and safety regulations in response to COVID-19 risks, changes in consumer behavior and health concerns, the pace of economic activity in the wake of the COVID-19 crisis, or other similar issues could adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition in the future, or our financial results and business performance for the fiscal year ended February 3,ending January 30, 2021.

In our initial response to the COVID-19 health crisis we undertook immediate adjustments to our business operations including curtailing expenses and delaying investments. Our approach to the crisis evolved quickly as our business trends substantially improved during the second fiscal quarter. We will continue to make decisions regarding the sources and uses of capital in our business to reflect and adapt to changes in market conditions including any lasting effects of COVID-19. While we deferred some capital expenditures and other expenses in response to the initial circumstances of the COVID-19 health crisis, we are continuing both long term investments and shorter term initiatives necessary to support our business and the recent increase in consumer demand.

NOTE 2—RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Cloud Computing

In August 2018, of retiring its common stock in accordance withthe Financial Accounting Standards CodificationBoard (“ASC”FASB”) 505issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2018-15—Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement that is a Service Contract,Equity, which resultedamends Accounting Standards Update 2015-05—Customers Accounting for Fees in a Cloud Computing Agreement. The amendments in this ASU more closely align the Company revising its previously issued financial statementsrequirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal use software license).

We adopted the ASU as of and for the year ended February 3, 2018. The common stock being retired was2, 2020 using a prospective method. We capitalize implementation costs related to shares repurchased under the Company’s equity plans. This error resulted in an overstatement ofhosted arrangements, which typically include three-year service terms with additional paid-in capital of $19.5 million,renewal periods generally ranging from $944.6 million as reportedone to $925.1 million as revised, and an overstatement of treasury stock of $19.5 million, from $1,020.1 million as reported to $1,000.6 million as revised,three years.

Current Expected Credit Losses

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-13—Financial Instruments—Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments and also issued subsequent amendments to the initial guidance through ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04, ASU 2019-05, ASU 2019-10, ASU 2019-11, ASU 2020-02 and ASU 2020-03 (collectively, the “ASUs”). The ASUs amend the impairment model to utilize an expected loss methodology in place of the currently used incurred loss methodology to result in more timely recognition of losses. The guidance in the ASUs applies to financial assets measured at amortized cost basis, such as receivables that result from revenue transactions.

Accounts receivable consist primarily of receivables from our credit card processors for sales transactions, receivables related to this misstatement. Although this error was not considered to be material to anyour contract business and other miscellaneous receivables. Accounts receivable is presented net of allowance for doubtful accounts as a result of the previouslyassessment of the collectability of customer accounts, which is recorded by considering factors such as historical experience, credit quality, the age of the accounts receivable balances, and current economic conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to pay. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $3.0 million and $2.2 million as of August 1, 2020 and February 1, 2020, respectively.

We adopted the ASUs as of February 2, 2020 using a modified retrospective transition method, which requires a cumulative-effect adjustment, if any, to the opening balance of retained earnings. We did not recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment upon adoption as the adoption of the ASUs did not have a material effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Income Taxes

In December 2019, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2019-12—Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The ASU impacts various topic areas within ASC 740, including accounting for taxes under hybrid tax regimes, accounting for increases in goodwill, allocation of tax amounts to separate company financial statements within a group that files a consolidated tax return, intra period tax allocation, interim period accounting, and accounting for ownership changes in investments, among other minor codification improvements. The guidance in this ASU becomes effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. We will adopt this standard in the Company has revisedfirst quarter of fiscal 2021 and are currently evaluating the accompanying unauditedeffects that the adoption of this ASU will have on our consolidated financial statements.

Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity

In August 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2020-06—Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. The ASU 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, the ASU 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 the ASU’s guidance, we will not separately present in equity an embedded conversion feature of such debt. Instead, we will 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, the ASU 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. The guidance in this ASU can be adopted using either a full or modified retrospective approach and becomes effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2021. We are currently evaluating the effects that the adoption of this ASU will have on our consolidated financial statements, to reflectincluding the correction of this error.timing and adoption approach.

DuringNOTE 4—GOODWILL, TRADENAMES, TRADEMARKS AND DOMAIN NAMES

The following sets forth the adoption process ofgoodwill, tradenames, trademarks and domain names activity for the new lease accounting standard (refer toRH Segment and Waterworks (See Note 2—17—Recently Issued Accounting StandardsSegment Reporting), the Company identified a lease agreement that was incorrectly accounted for as an impaired lease under ASC 420—Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations in fiscal 2017 and the first quarter of fiscal 2018. This error resulted in an overstatement of net income of $1.4 million and $0.9 million for the year ended February 3, 2018 and the six months ended August 4, 2018, respectively. This error also resulted in an overstatement of retained earnings as of February 3, 2018 of $1.4 million, from $152.4 million as reported to $151.0 million as revised, and as of August 4, 2018 of $2.3 million, from $223.5 million as reported to $221.2 million as revised, prior to the impact of the modified retrospective application of the new lease accounting standard as further discussed in Note 2. In addition, as of February 2, 2019, this error resulted in an understatement of other non-current obligations of $3.3 million, an overstatement of other current liabilities of $1.0 million and understatement of accumulated deficit of $2.3 million, from $376.8 million as reported to $379.1 million as revised. Although these errors are not considered to be material to any of the previously issued financial statements, the Company has revised the accompanying unaudited interim financial statements to reflect the correction of these errors.

In addition, during the adoption process of the new lease accounting standard, the Company identified an error in its previously reported consolidated statement of cash flows for the quarterly and annual periods in fiscal 2018. This error resulted in an understatement of $9.2 million of net cash provided by operating activities and an understatement of $9.2 million of net cash used in investing activities for each reporting period in fiscal 2018. There was no impact on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, condensed consolidated statements of income or the condensed consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity (deficit) related to this error. Although these errors are not considered to be material to any of the previously issued financial statements, the Company has revised the accompanying unaudited interim financial statements to reflect the correction of these errors.

The following are selected line items from the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of cash flows illustrating the effect of the corrections, prior to the adoption of the modified retrospective application of the new lease accounting standard1, 2020 (in thousands):

Waterworks Tradename Impairment

During the first quarter of fiscal 2020, as a result of the COVID-19 health crisis and related Showroom closures and slowdown in construction activity, management updated the long-term financial projections for the Waterworks reporting unit which resulted in a significant decrease in forecasted revenues and profitability. We performed an interim impairment test on the Waterworks tradename and the estimated future cash flows of the Waterworks reporting unit indicated the fair value of the tradename asset was below its carrying amount. We determined fair value utilizing a discounted cash flow methodology under the relief-from-royalty method. Significant assumptions under this method include forecasted net revenues and the estimated royalty rate, expressed as a percentage of revenues, in addition to the discount rate based on the weighted-average cost of capital. Based on the impairment test performed, we concluded that the Waterworks reporting unit tradename was impaired as of the first quarter of fiscal 2020.

As a result, we recognized a $20.5 million non-cash impairment charge for the Waterworks reporting unit tradename during the first quarter of fiscal 2020, and the carrying value of the Waterworks indefinite-lived tradename asset after the impairment charge was $17.0 million.

NOTE 2—RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS5—INVESTMENTS IN JOINT VENTURES

Accounting for Leases

In February 2016,During the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-02—Leases, which requiressecond quarter of fiscal 2020, we entered into transactions whereby we became a lessee to distinguish all leases as operating leases or finance leases50 percent member of 2 privately held limited liability companies (the “JVs”) that each have the purpose of acquiring, constructing, developing and recognize all leases on the balance sheet as a right-of-use asset with a corresponding lease liability representing the present value of lease payments. The standard also requires a lessee to recognize a single lease cost for operating leases, calculated so that the cost of the lease is allocated over the lease term, generally on a straight-line basis. The lease cost for finance leases includes both principal and interest components, and is higher than the corresponding cash payment at the beginning of the lease term and declines over the lease term as the liability is reduced. In July 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2018-10—Codification Improvements to Topic 842 (Leases), and Accounting Standards Update 2018-11—Leases (Topic 842)—Targeted Improvements, which (i) narrows amendments to clarify how to applyultimately selling certain aspects of the new lease standard, (ii) provides entities with an additional transition method to adopt the new standard, and (iii) provides lessors with a practical expedient for separating components of a contract. Accounting Standards Update 2016-02, Accounting Standards Update 2018-10 and Accounting Standards Update 2018-11 are collectively referred to as the “ASUs.”

The Company adopted the ASUs as of February 3, 2019 using a modified retrospective approach. Under this adoption method, the results of prior comparative periods are presented with an adjustment to opening retained earnings of the earliest comparative period presented. In addition, the Company elected to adopt the package of transition practical expedients, which permitted the Company not to reassess its prior conclusions regarding lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. The Company adopted the policy election to not separate lease and non-lease components for certain asset classes (such asspecified real estate leases),projects. The JVs are financed by capital contributions from the members on an as-needed basis, as well as via third-party debt secured by the short-term lease policy election offered underunderlying real estate projects and guaranteed by a member other than us. The JVs are considered variable interest entities because the ASUs wherebyequity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the Company doesJV’s to finance their activities without additional financial support. A variable interest entity is consolidated by its primary beneficiary, which is defined as the party who has a controlling financial interest in the variable interest entity. As we do not recognize righthave a controlling financial interest in the JVs but have the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of use assets and lease liabilities for leases with terms of 12 months or less. The Company did not apply the hindsight practical expedient upon adoption.JVs, we recognized these investments using the equity method.

As a resultof August 1, 2020, we had $3.1 million of investments in the JVs, which is included in other non-current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

We expect that substantially all of the tax impact.deferred revenue, customer deposits and deferred membership fees as of August 1, 2020 will be recognized within the next six months (with the exception of cancelled orders) as the performance obligations are satisfied.

In addition, we defer revenue when cash payments are received in advance of performance for unsatisfied obligations related to our gift cards and merchandise credits. During the three months ended August 1, 2020 and August 3, 2019, we recognized $6.5 million and $4.6 million, respectively, of revenue related to previous deferrals related to our gift cards and merchandise credits. During the six months ended August 1, 2020 and August 3, 2019, we recognized $10.6 million and $9.3 million, respectively, of revenue related to previous deferrals related to our gift cards and merchandise credits. During the three months ended August 1, 2020 and August 3, 2019, we recorded gift card breakage of $0.2 million and $0.4 million, respectively. During both the six months ended August 1, 2020 and August 3, 2019, we recorded gift card breakage of $0.8 million. We expect that approximately 70% of the remaining gift card and merchandise credit liabilities as of August 1, 2020 will be recognized within the next twelve months as the gift cards are redeemed by customers.

Cloud Computing

In August 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2018-15—Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement that is a Service Contract, which amends Accounting Standards Update 2015-05—Customers Accounting for Fees in a Cloud Computing Agreement. The amendments in this ASU more closely align the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal use software license). The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effects that the adoption of this new accounting standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Contract Liabilities

The Company defers revenue associated with merchandise delivered via the home-delivery channel. The Company expects that substantially all of the deferred revenue, customer deposits and deferred membership fees as of August 3, 2019 will be recognized within the next six months as the performance obligations are satisfied.

In addition, the Company defers revenue when cash payments are received in advance of performance for unsatisfied obligations related to its gift cards and merchandise credits. During the three months ended August 3, 2019 and August 4, 2018, the Company recognized $4.6 million and $4.8 million, respectively, of revenue related to previous deferrals related to its gift cards and merchandise credits. During the six months ended August 3, 2019 and August 4, 2018, the Company recognized $9.3 million and $9.7 million, respectively, of revenue related to previous deferrals related to its gift cards and merchandise credits. During both the three months ended August 3, 2019 and August 4, 2018, the Company recorded gift card breakage of $0.4 million. During both the six months ended August 3, 2019 and August 4, 2018, the Company recorded gift card breakage of $0.8 million. The Company expects that approximately 70% of the remaining gift card and merchandise credit liabilities as of August 3, 2019 will be recognized within the next twelve months as the gift cards are redeemed by customers.

NOTE 7—LEASES

Accounting Policy

The Company leases nearly all of its retail and outlet store locations, corporate headquarters, distribution and home delivery facilities, as well as other storage and office space. The initial lease terms of the Company’s real estate leases generally range from ten to fifteen years, and certain leases contain renewal options for up to an additional 25 years, the exercise of which is at the Company’s sole discretion. In recognizing the lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, the Company utilizes the lease term for which it is reasonably certain to use the underlying asset, including consideration of options to extend or terminate the lease. The Company also leases certain equipment with lease terms generally ranging from three to seven years. The Company’s lease agreements generally do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictions or covenants.

Leases, or lease extensions, with a term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, and the Company recognizes lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The Company accounts for lease and non-lease components as a single lease component for real estate leases, and for all other asset classes the Company accounts for the components separately. The Company determines the lease classification and begins to recognize lease and any related financing expenses upon the lease’s commencement, which for real estate leases is generally upon store opening or, to a lesser extent, when the Company takes possession or control of the asset.

As most of the Company’s leases do not include an implicit interest rate, the Company determines the discount rate for each lease based upon the incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”) in order to calculate the present value of lease payments at the commencement date. The IBR is computed as the rate of interest that the Company would have to pay to (i) borrow on a collateralized basis (ii) over a similar term (iii) an amount equal to the total lease payments and (iv) in a similar economic environment. The Company utilizes its asset based credit facility as the basis for determining the applicable IBR for each lease.

Certain of the Company’s lease agreements include rental payments based on a percentage of retail sales over contractual levels. Due to the variable and unpredictable nature of such payments, the Company does not recognize a lease right-of-use asset and lease liability related to such payments. Estimated variable rental payments are included in accounts payable and accrued expenses on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Company has a small group of leases that include rental payments periodically adjusted for inflation (e.g., based on the consumer price index). The Company includes these variable payments in the initial measurement of the lease right-of-use asset and lease liability if such increases have a minimum rent escalation (e.g., floor). However, the Company excludes these variable payments from the initial measurement of the lease right-of-use asset and lease liability in the case of lease arrangements that do not specify a minimum rent escalation.

The Company rents or subleases certain real estate to third parties under operating leases and recognizes rental income received on a straight-line basis over the lease term, which is recorded as an offset to selling, general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of income.

Lease arrangements may require the landlord to provide tenant allowances directly to the Company. Standard tenant allowances received from landlords, typically those received under operating lease agreements, are recorded as cash and cash equivalents with an offset recorded in lease right-of-use assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. In certain instances tenant allowances are provided for the Company to design and build the leased asset. Tenant allowances received from landlords during the construction phase of a leased asset and prior to lease commencement are recorded as cash and cash equivalents with an offset recorded in other non-current assets (to the extent the Company has incurred related capital expenditure for construction costs) or in other current liabilities (to the extent that payments are received prior to capital construction expenditures by the Company) on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. After the leased asset is constructed and the lease commences, the Company reclassifies the tenant allowance from other non-current assets or other current liabilities to lease right-of-use assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Table of Contents

Lease Classification

Certain of the Company’s real estate and property and equipment are held under finance leases. Lease related assets are included in finance lease right-of-use assets within property and equipment—net on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Leases that do not meet the definition of a finance lease are considered operating leases. Lease related assets are included in operating lease right-of-use assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Construction Related Activities

The Company is sometimes involved in the construction of leased stores for certain of its newer Design Galleries. Prior to construction commencement, the Company evaluates whether or not it, as lessee, controls the asset being constructed and, depending on the extent to which it is involved, the Company may be the “deemed owner” of the leased asset for accounting purposes during the construction period.

If the Company is not the “deemed owner” for accounting purposes during the construction period, such lease is classified as either an operating or finance lease upon lease commencement. During the construction period and prior to lease commencement, any capital amounts contributed by the Company toward the construction of the leased asset (excluding normal leasehold improvements, which are recorded within property and equipment—net) are recorded as “Landlord assets under construction” within other non-current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets (refer to Note 3—Prepaid Expense and Other Assets). Upon completion of the construction project, and upon lease commencement, the Company reclassifies amounts of the construction project determined to be the landlord asset to lease right-of-use assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The construction costs determined not to be part of the leased asset are classified as property and equipment—net on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

If the Company is the “deemed owner” for accounting purposes, upon commencement of the construction project, it is required to capitalize (i) costs incurred by the Company and (ii) the cash and non-cash assets contributed by the landlord for construction as property and equipment on its condensed consolidated balance sheets as build-to-suit assets, with an offsetting financing obligation under build-to-suit lease transactions. The contributions by the landlord toward construction, including the building, existing site improvements at construction commencement and any amounts paid by the landlord to those responsible for construction, are included as property and equipment additions due to build-to-suit lease transactions within the non-cash section of the consolidated statements of cash flows. Over the lease term, these non-cash additions to property and equipment do not impact the Company’s cash outflows, nor do they impact net income within the consolidated statements of income.

Upon completion of the construction project, the Company performs a sale-leaseback analysis to determine if it can derecognize the build-to-suit asset and corresponding financing obligation. If the asset and liability cannot be derecognized, the Company accounts for the agreement as a debt-like arrangement.

Sale-Leaseback Transaction

In July 2020, we executed a sale-leaseback transaction for the Minneapolis Design Gallery for sales proceeds of $25.5 million, which qualified for sale-leaseback accounting in accordance with ASC 842. Concurrently with the sale, we entered into an operating leaseback arrangement with an initial lease term of 20 years and a renewal option for an additional 10 years. We recognized a loss related to the execution of the sale transaction of $9.4 million in the three months ended August 1, 2020, which was recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of income.

Long-lived Asset Impairment

During the first quarter of fiscal 2020, we recognized long-lived asset impairment charges of $3.5 million related to one RH Baby & Child Gallery and one Waterworks showroom, comprised of lease right-of-use asset impairment of $2.0 million and property and equipment impairment of $1.5 million.

NOTE 9—CONVERTIBLE SENIOR NOTES

$350 million 0.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2024

In September 2019, we issued in a private offering $350 million principal amount of 0.00% convertible senior notes due 2024 (the “2024 Notes”). The 2024 Notes are governed by the terms of an indenture between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as the Trustee. The 2024 Notes will mature on September 15, 2024, unless earlier purchased by us or converted. The 2024 Notes will not bear interest, except that the 2024 Notes will be subject to “special interest” in certain limited circumstances in the event of our failure to perform certain of our obligations under the indenture governing the 2024 Notes. The 2024 Notes are unsecured obligations and do not contain any financial covenants or restrictions on the payments of dividends, the incurrence of indebtedness or the issuance or repurchase of securities by us or any of our subsidiaries. Certain events are also considered “events of default” under the 2024 Notes, which may result in the acceleration of the maturity of the 2024 Notes, as described in the indenture governing the 2024 Notes. Events of default under the indenture for the 2024 Notes include, among other things, the occurrence of an event of default by us as defined under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued, or by which there may be secured or evidenced, any indebtedness of the Company or any of its significant subsidiaries for money borrowed, if that event of default (i) constitutes the failure to pay when due indebtedness in the aggregate principal amount in excess of $20 million and (ii) such event of default continues for a period of 30 days after written notice is delivered to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the holders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2024 Notes then outstanding.

The initial conversion rate applicable to the 2024 Notes is 4.7304 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2024 Notes, or a total of approximately 1.656 million shares for the total $350 million principal amount. This initial conversion rate is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $211.40 per share, which represents a 25% premium to the $169.12 closing share price on the day the 2024 Notes were priced. The conversion rate will be subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified events, but will not be adjusted for any accrued and unpaid special interest. In addition, upon the occurrence of a “make-whole fundamental change” as defined in the indenture governing the 2024 Notes, we will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate by a number of additional shares for a holder that elects to convert its 2024 Notes in connection with such make-whole fundamental change.

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 5 consecutive business day period after any 10 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. As

Table of Contents

The maturities of lease liabilities areAugust 1, 2020, none of these conditions have occurred and, as followsa result, the 2024 Notes were not convertible as of August 3, 20191, 2020. 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.

We may not redeem the 2024 Notes; however, upon the occurrence of a fundamental change (as defined in the indenture governing the notes), holders may require us to purchase all or a portion of their 2024 Notes for cash at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2024 Notes to be purchased plus any accrued and unpaid special interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change purchase date.

Under GAAP, certain convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash on conversion are required to be separately accounted for as liability and equity components of the instrument in a manner that reflects the issuer’s non-convertible debt borrowing rate. Accordingly, in accounting for the issuance of the 2024 Notes, we separated the 2024 Notes into liability and equity components. The carrying amount of the liability component was calculated by measuring the fair value of a similar liability that does not have an associated convertible feature. The carrying amount of the equity component, which is recognized as a debt discount, represents the difference between the proceeds from the issuance of the 2024 Notes and the fair value of the liability component of the 2024 Notes. The excess of the principal amount of the liability component over its carrying amount (“debt discount”) will be amortized to interest expense using an effective interest rate of 5.74% over the expected life of the 2024 Notes. The equity component is not remeasured as long as it continues to meet the conditions for equity classification.

Debt issuance costs related to the 2024 Notes were comprised of discounts upon original issuance of $3.5 million and third party offering costs of $1.3 million. In accounting for the debt issuance costs related to the issuance of the 2024 Notes, we allocated the total amount incurred to the liability and equity components based on their relative values. Debt issuance costs attributable to the liability component are amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the expected life of the 2024 Notes, and debt issuance costs attributable to the equity component are netted with the equity component in stockholders’ equity.

Discounts and third party offering costs attributable to the liability component are recorded as a contra-liability and are presented net against the convertible senior notes due 2024 balance on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. During the three months ended August 1, 2020, we recorded $0.1 million related to the amortization of debt issuance costs related to the 2024 Notes. During the six months ended August 1, 2020 we recorded $0.3 million related to the amortization of debt issuance costs related to the 2024 Notes.

NOTE 8—CONVERTIBLE SENIOR NOTES2024 Notes—Convertible Bond Hedge and Warrant Transactions

In connection with the offering of the 2024 Notes and exercise of the overallotment option in September 2019, we entered into convertible note hedge transactions whereby we have the option to purchase a total of approximately 1.656 million shares of our common stock at a price of approximately $211.40 per share. The total cost of the convertible note hedge transactions was approximately $91.4 million. In addition, we sold warrants whereby the holders of the warrants have the option to purchase a total of approximately 1.656 million shares of our common stock at a price of $338.24 per share, which represents a 100% premium to the $169.12 closing share price on the day the 2024 Notes were priced. The warrants contain certain adjustment mechanisms whereby the total number of shares to be purchased under such warrants may be increased up to a cap of approximately 3.3 million shares of common stock (which cap may also be subject to adjustment). We received approximately $50.2 million in cash proceeds from the sale of these warrants. Taken together, the purchase of the convertible note hedges and sale of the warrants are intended to offset any actual earnings dilution from the conversion of the 2024 Notes until our common stock is above approximately $338.24 per share. As these transactions meet certain accounting criteria, the convertible note hedges and warrants are recorded in stockholders’ equity, are not accounted for as derivatives and are not remeasured each reporting period. The net costs incurred in connection with the convertible note hedge and warrant transactions were recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

We recorded a deferred tax liability of $21.7 million in connection with the debt discount associated with the 2024 Notes and recorded a deferred tax asset of $22.7 million in connection with the convertible note hedge transactions. The deferred tax liability and deferred tax asset are recorded in deferred tax assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

$335 million 0.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2023

In June 2018, the Companywe 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”). The 2023 Notes are governed by the terms of an indenture between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as the Trustee. The 2023 Notes will mature on June 15, 2023, unless earlier purchased by the Companyus or converted. The 2023 Notes will not bear interest, except that the 2023 Notes will be subject to “special interest” in certain limited circumstances in the event of theour failure of the Company to perform certain of itsour obligations under the indenture governing the 2023 Notes. The 2023 Notes are unsecured obligations and do not contain any financial covenants or restrictions on the payments of dividends, the incurrence of indebtedness or the issuance or repurchase of securities by the Companyus or any of itsour subsidiaries. Certain events are also considered “events of default” under the 2023 Notes, which may result in the acceleration of the maturity of the 2023 Notes, as described in the indenture governing the 2023 Notes. Events of default under the indenture for the 2023 Notes include, among other things, the occurrence of an event of default by us as defined under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued, or by which there may be secured or evidenced, any indebtedness of the Company or any of its significant subsidiaries for money borrowed, if that event of default (i) constitutes the failure to pay when due indebtedness in the aggregate principal amount in excess of $20 million and (ii) such event of default continues for a period of 30 days after written notice is delivered to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the holders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2023 Notes then outstanding.

The initial conversion rate applicable to the 2023 Notes is 5.1640 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2023 Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $193.65 per share. The conversion rate will be subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified events, but will not be adjusted for any accrued and unpaid special interest. In addition, upon the occurrence of a “make-whole fundamental change” as defined in the indenture governing the Company2023 Notes, we will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate by a number of additional shares for a holder that elects to convert its 2023 Notes in connection with such make-whole fundamental change.

Prior to March 15, 2023, the 2023 Notes will beare 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 the Company’sour 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 5 consecutive business day period after any 10

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 the Company’sour common stock and the applicable conversion rate on such trading day; or (3) upon the occurrence of specified corporate transactions. As of August 3, 2019,1, 2020, none of these conditions have occurred and, as a result, the 2023 Notes were not convertible as of August 3, 2019.1, 2020. 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 the Company’sour election, in cash, shares of the Company’sour common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of the Company’sour 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.

The CompanyWe may not redeem the 2023 Notes; however, upon the occurrence of a fundamental change (as defined in the indenture governing the notes), holders may require the Companyus to purchase all or a portion of their 2023 Notes for cash at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2023 Notes to be purchased plus any accrued and unpaid special interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change purchase date.

Taken together, the purchase of the convertible note hedges and sale of the warrants arewere intended to offset any actual earnings dilution from the conversion of the 2020 Notes until the Company’sour common stock is above approximately $189.00 per share. As these transactions meetmet certain accounting criteria, the convertible note hedges and warrants arewere recorded in stockholders’ equity, are not accounted for as derivatives and are not remeasured each reporting period. The net costs incurred in connection with the convertible note hedge and warrant transactions were recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

As a result of the operation of the bond hedge in connection with the maturity of the 2020 Notes, we were not required to issue any new shares to settle the notes as these shares were delivered to us under the terms of the bond hedge. The Companybond hedge was exercised in connection with the maturity date of the 2020 Notes. The warrants will expire through January 2021. To the extent they are exercised prior to expiration, the warrant transactions will have a dilutive effect with respect to our common stock to the extent that the price per share of our common stock exceeds the strike price of the warrants.

We recorded a deferred tax liability of $32.8 million in connection with the debt discount associated with the 2020 Notes and recorded a deferred tax asset of $26.6 million in connection with the convertible note hedge transactions. The deferred tax liability and deferred tax asset are recorded in deferred tax assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

0.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2019

In June 2014, the Company issued $350 million principal amount of 0.00% convertible senior notes due 2019 (the “2019 Notes”) in a private offering. The 2019 Notes were governed by the terms of an indenture between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as the Trustee. The 2019 Notes did not bear interest, except that the 2019 Notes were subject to “special interest” in certain limited circumstances in the event of the failure of the Company to perform certain of its obligations under the indenture governing the 2019 Notes. The 2019 Notes were unsecured obligations and did not contain any financial covenants or restrictions on the payments of dividends, the incurrence of indebtedness or the issuance or repurchase of securities by the Company or any of its subsidiaries. Certain events were also considered “events of default” under the 2019 Notes, which could result in the acceleration of the maturity of the 2019 Notes, as described in the indenture governing the 2019 Notes. The 2019 Notes matured on June 15, 2019.

The initial conversion rate applicable to the 2019 Notes was 8.6143 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2019 Notes, which was equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $116.09 per share. The conversion rate was subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified events, but was not adjusted for any accrued and unpaid special interest. In addition, upon the occurrence of a “make-whole fundamental change,” the Company would, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate by a number of additional shares for a holder that elected to convert its 2019 Notes in connection with such make-whole fundamental change.

Prior to March 15, 2019, the 2019 Notes were convertible only under the following circumstances: (1) during any calendar quarter commencing after September 30, 2014, 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 the Company’s 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 5 consecutive business day period after any 10 consecutive trading day period in which, for each day of that period, the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of 2019 Notes for such trading day was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock and the applicable conversion rate on such trading day; or (3) upon the occurrence of specified corporate transactions. On and after March 15, 2019, until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders could have converted all or a portion of their 2019 Notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances.

Under GAAP, certain convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash on conversion are required to be separately accounted for as liability and equity components of the instrument in a manner that reflects the issuer’s non-convertible debt borrowing rate. Accordingly, in accounting for the issuance of the 2019 Notes, the Company separated the 2019 Notes into liability and equity components. The carrying amount of the liability component was calculated by measuring the fair value of a similar liability that does not have an associated convertible feature. The carrying amount of the equity component, which is recognized as a debt discount, represents the difference between the proceeds from the issuance of the 2019 Notes and the fair value of the liability component of the 2019 Notes. The debt discount was amortized to interest expense using an effective interest rate of 4.51% over the expected life of the 2019 Notes. The equity component was not remeasured as long as it continued to meet the conditions for equity classification.

In accounting for the debt issuance costs related to the issuance of the 2019 Notes, the Company allocated the total amount incurred to the liability and equity components based on their relative values. Debt issuance costs attributable to the liability component were amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the expected life of the 2019 Notes, and debt issuance costs attributable to the equity component were netted with the equity component in stockholders’ equity (deficit).

Debt issuance costs related to the 2019 Notes were comprised of discounts and commissions payable to the initial purchasers of $4.4 million and third party offering costs of $1.0 million. Discounts, commissions payable to the initial purchasers and third party offering costs attributable to the liability component were recorded as a contra-liability and were presented net against the convertible senior notes due 2019 balance on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. During the three months ended August 3, 2019 and August 4, 2018, the Company recorded $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively, related to the amortization of debt issuance costs. During the six months ended August 3, 2019 and August 4, 2018, the Company recorded $0.4 million and $0.5 million, respectively, related to the amortization of debt issuance costs.

In June 2019, upon the maturity of the 2019 Notes, $350.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2019 Notes were settled for $349.0 million in cash and 42 shares of common stock. As a result, the Company recognized a gain on extinguishment of debt of $1.0 million.

As of August 3, 2019, the 2019 Notes are no longer outstanding. As of February 2, 2019, the carrying value of the 2019 Notes, excluding the discounts and commissions payable to the initial purchasers and third party offering costs, was as follows (in thousands):

2019 Notes—Convertible Bond Hedge and Warrant Transactions

In connection with the offering of the 2019 Notes, the Company entered into convertible note hedge transactions whereby the Company had the option to purchase a total of approximately 3.0 million shares of its common stock at a price of approximately $116.09 per share. The total cost of the convertible note hedge transactions was $73.3 million. The convertible note hedge terminated upon the maturity date of the 2019 Notes. In addition, the Company sold warrants whereby the holders of the warrants have the option to purchase a total of approximately 3.0 million shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $171.98 per share. The warrants contain certain adjustment mechanisms

whereby the total number of shares to be purchased under such warrants may be increased up to a cap of 6.0 million shares of common stock (which cap may also be subject to adjustment). The warrants will expire through December 2019. The Company received $40.4 million in cash proceeds from the sale of these warrants. Taken together, the purchase of the convertible note hedges and sale of the warrants are intended to offset any actual dilution from the conversion of the 2019 Notes and to effectively increase the overall conversion price from $116.09 per share to $171.98 per share. As these transactions met certain accounting criteria, the convertible note hedges were, and warrants are, recorded in stockholders’ equity, are not accounted for as derivatives and are not remeasured each reporting period.

NOTE 10—11—FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Certain financial assets and liabilities are required to be carried at fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In determining the fair value, the Company utilizeswe utilize market data or assumptions that it believeswe believe market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, which would maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs of the valuation technique.

25

Table of Contents

The degree of judgment used in measuring the fair value of financial instruments generally correlates to the level of pricing observability. Pricing observability is impacted by a number of factors, including the type of financial instrument, whether the financial instrument is new to the market and not yet established and the characteristics specific to the transaction. Financial instruments with readily available active quoted prices for which fair value can be measured generally will have a higher degree of pricing observability and a lesser degree of judgment used in measuring fair value. Conversely, financial instruments rarely traded or not quoted will generally have less, or no, pricing observability and a higher degree of judgment used in measuring fair value.

The Company’sOur financial assets and liabilities measured and reported at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following categories:

Level 1—Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical investments as of the reporting date.
Level 2—Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date, and fair value is determined through the use of models or other valuation methodologies.
Level 3—Pricing inputs are unobservable for the investment and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the investment. The inputs used in the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation.

A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Fair Value MeasurementsRecurring

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.

Commitments

The CompanyWe had 0 material off balance sheet commitments as of August 3, 2019.1, 2020.

Contingencies

The Company isWe are involved in lawsuits, claims and proceedings incident to the ordinary course of itsour business. These disputes are increasing in number as the business expands and the Company growswe grow larger. Litigation is inherently unpredictable. As a result, the outcome of matters in which the Company iswe are involved could result in unexpected expenses and liability that could adversely affect the Company’sour operations. In addition, any claims against the Company,us, whether meritorious or not, could be time consuming, result in costly litigation, require significant amounts of management time and result in the diversion of significant operational resources.

The Company reviewsWe review the need for any loss contingency reserves and establishes reserves when, in the opinion of management, it is probable that a matter would result in liability, and the amount of loss, if any, can be reasonably estimated. Generally, 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 the Company doeswe 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 the Company accrueswe accrue from time to time. The Company believesWe believe that the ultimate resolution of itsour current matters will not have a material adverse effect on itsour condensed consolidated financial statements.

(No. 18-cv-03930). On July 29, 2018, the court consolidated both derivative actions, and the consolidated action is captioned In re RH Shareholder Derivative Litigation. On August 24, 2018, plaintiffs filed an amended complaint that names RHthe Company as a nominal defendant and Gary Friedman, Karen Boone, Carlos Alberini, Keith Belling, Eri Chaya, Mark Demilio, Katie Mitic, Ali Rowghani and Leonard Schlesinger as defendants.

On August 28, 2020, we completed the acquisition of a home furnishings brand for a preliminary purchase price of $20 million. Due to the close proximity of the acquisition date to the filing date of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended August 1, 2020, the initial accounting for this business combination is incomplete, and therefore we are unable to disclose certain information in accordance with ASC 805—Business Combinations.

Overview

We are a leading luxury retailer in the home furnishings marketplace. Our curated and fully-integrated assortments are presented consistently across our sales channels in sophisticated and unique lifestyle settings that we believe are on par with world-class interior designers. We offer dominant merchandise assortments across a growing number of categories, including furniture, lighting, textiles, bathware, décor, outdoor and garden, and child and teen furnishings. We position our Galleries as showrooms for our brand, while our Source Books and websites act as virtual extensions of our stores. In 2015 we began to introduce an integrated hospitality experience, including cafés, wine vaults and barista bars, into a number of our new Gallery locations. We believe this has created a unique newOur retail experience that cannot be replicated online, and that the addition of hospitality is helping to drive incremental sales of home furnishings in these Galleries.

Our business is fully integrated across our multiple channels of distribution, consisting of our stores, Source Books, and websites. We have an integrated RH Hospitality experience in ten of our new Design Gallery locations, which include restaurants and wine vaults.

The initial wave of the novel coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”) outbreak starting in March 2020 caused disruption to our business operations as we temporarily closed all of our retail locations on March 17, 2020. While our retail locations were substantially closed at the end of the first fiscal quarter on May 2, 2020, during the second fiscal quarter we have reopened substantially all of our retail locations. As of the end of the second fiscal quarter on August 3, 2019, six1, 2020 we had reopened 66 out of 68 of our RH Design Galleries, include an integrated RH Hospitality experienceall of our Outlets, and we plan8 out of 10 of our restaurants. In addition, our business has substantially recovered during the second fiscal quarter as a result of both the reopening of most of our retail locations and also due to incorporate hospitality, including cafés, wine vaults and barista barsstrong consumer demand for our products.

As our business has strengthened during the second fiscal quarter, the reduction in manyinventory receipts together with dislocations in our supply chain has resulted in some delays in our ability to convert business demand into shipped sales. Our global supply chain has not fully recovered from the impact of the new Galleries thatCOVID-19 dislocation. Despite the strong growth in consumer demand in our business during the second fiscal quarter, revenue growth has lagged the increase in customer orders. As manufacturing and inventory receipts catch up with this backlog, we openexpect this demand will convert into revenue in the future.next several quarters as our supply chain recalibrates to the new level of our business.

While we have continued to serve our customers and operate our business through the initial phase of the COVID-19 health crisis, and have now substantially reopened our retail locations in the U.S. and Canada, there can be no assurance that future events will not have an impact on our business, results of operations or financial condition since the extent and duration of the health crisis remains uncertain. Future adverse developments in connection with the COVID-19 crisis, including additional waves of COVID-19 outbreaks, evolving international, federal, state and local restrictions and safety regulations in response to COVID-19 risks, changes in consumer behavior and health concerns, the pace of economic activity in the wake of the COVID-19 crisis, or other similar issues could adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition in the future, or our financial results and business performance for the fiscal year ending January 30, 2021.

The COVID-19 pandemic may continue to have an adverse impact on elements of our supply chain including the manufacture, supply, distribution, transportation and delivery of our products and our inventory levels. The presence of the virus and the response to the health crisis in various countries can affect the speed at which the factories that manufacture our products are able to resume normal operations and production levels, and the extent to which business conditions are able to return to normal in areas that affect our supply chain including factories and transportation. Furthermore, our hospitality business may not recover as quickly as other parts of our business, as in most of our retail locations that have reopened, substantial operational restrictions related to COVID-19 health and safety considerations, for example limits to seating capacity, have been imposed on such business by various governmental authorities. Such operational restrictions may cause our hospitality offerings to be less attractive to customers or may lower its margins and profitability.

In our initial response to the COVID-19 health crisis we undertook immediate adjustments to our business operations including curtailing expenses and delaying investments including scaling back some inventory orders while we assessed the status of our business. Our approach to the crisis evolved quickly as our business trends substantially improved during the second fiscal quarter.

While we are pursuing a large number of new business initiatives, the COVID-19 health crisis has had a short-term impact on some of those efforts and initiatives such as the timing of some construction efforts with respect to opening new Gallery locations and optimizing our inventory in light of Outlet inventory buildup resulting from our temporary retail closures. For example, while we have generally experienced positive and improving business trends during the second quarter of fiscal 2020, counterparties with respect to some of our Gallery development projects may experience capital or liquidity constraints due to COVID-19 related difficulties, which may impact the timing or scope of some of our development projects. The impact of COVID-19 abroad, including travel restrictions imposed by various countries, may affect certain aspects of our planned international expansion. Given the pace at which business conditions are evolving in response to the COVID-19 health crisis, we may adjust our investments in various business initiatives including our capital expenditures over the course of fiscal 2020.

We will continue to closely manage our expenses and investments while considering both the overall economic environment as well as the needs of our business operations. In addition, our near term decisions regarding the sources and uses of capital in our business will continue to reflect and adapt to changes in market conditions and our business related to the impact of COVID-19. While we have taken measures to defer some capital expenditures and other expenses in response to the COVID-19 health crisis, we expect to resume those investments as and to the extent that conditions for our business continue to improve during the COVID-19 crisis. For more information, refer to Item 1A—Risk Factors—The COVID-19 pandemic poses significant and widespread risks to our business as well as to the business environment and the markets in which we operate in Part II of this quarterly report.

Key Value Driving Strategies

In order to drive growth across our business, we are focused on a number of key long-term strategies, including:

Elevate and Expand RH Product. Consistent with our luxury brand positioning, we are driving improvements in our product offering as one of the key value driving strategies of our business. While we have expanded our merchandise assortment substantially over a number of years, we are increasingly focused on efforts to elevate our product as opposed to only increasing the size of our product offering. As part of this effort, we are driving continuing enhancements in the taste, quality and style of our products as well as integrating our product offering to offer our customers authoritative collections of home furnishings at the high end of the market.

As part of these efforts, we continue to attract and collaborate with the following long-term key strategies:best designers, artisans, and manufacturers in our industry, scaling their work across our integrated platform and thereby rendering it more valuable, enabling us to curate a compelling collection of luxury home furnishings to our customers. Our vision is not only to elevate our merchandise offering, but also to offer a broader ecosystem of products and experiences as we move the brand beyond curating and selling product to conceptualizing and selling spaces by building an integrated platform of products, places, services and spaces that elevate and establish the RH brand as a global thought leader, taste and placemaker.

As an example, our product is elevated and rendered more valuable by our architecturally inspiring Galleries, which are further elevated and rendered more valuable by our seamlessly integrated hospitality experience. Our Hospitality efforts will continue to elevate the RH brand as we move 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 hotel industry. Additionally, we are creating bespoke hospitality experiences like RH Yountville, an integration of Food, Wine, Art & Design in the Napa Valley. These immersive experiences expose existing and new customers to our evolvoing authority in interior design, architecture, landscape architecture and hospitality.

Transform Our Real Estate Platform. 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 have an opportunity tocan significantly increase our sales by transforming our real estate platform from our existing legacy retail footprint to a portfolio of Design Galleries that are sized to the potential of each market and the size of our merchandise assortment.

Table of Contents

New Design Gallery sites are identified based on a variety of factors, such as (i) the availability of suitable new site locations based on several store specific aspectsfactors including geographic location, demographics, and proximity to affluent consumers, and(ii) the negotiation ofability to negotiate favorable economic terms, to us for the new location, as well as (iii) the satisfactory and timely completion of real estate development including procurement of permits and completion of construction. Based on our analysis, we believe we have the opportunity to operate Design Galleries in 60 to 70 locations in the United States and Canada. The number of Design Galleries we open in any fiscal year is highly dependent upon these variables and individual new Design Galleries may be subject to delay or postponement depending on the circumstances of specific projects.projects, which we have experienced with some of our new Gallery openings from time to time including in connection with the COVID-19 crisis.

Today we operate 24 Design Galleries, and based on our analysis, we believe we have the opportunity to operate Design Galleries in 60 to 70 locations in the United States and Canada. We opened our PortlandMinneapolis Design Gallery in March 2018,September 2019, our NashvilleColumbus Design Gallery in December 2019, our Charlotte Design Gallery in June 2018, as well as2020 and our New York Design Gallery and ourMarin Design Gallery in Yountville, California in the Napa Valley, in September 2018. OurJuly 2020. Nearly all of our new Design Galleries in Nashville, New York and Yountville include integrated cafés,restaurants and wine vaults and barista bars.vaults.

We have identified key learnings from our real estate transformation that have supported the development of a new multi-tier market approach that we believe will optimize both market share and return on invested capital.

First, we have developed a new RH prototype Design Our Gallery that is an innovative and flexible blueprint which we believe will enable us to more quickly place our disruptive product assortment and immersive retail experience into the market. The new model is a standard we will utilize in the future that is based on key learnings from our recent Gallery openings and will range in size from 33,000 leased selling square feet inclusive of our integrated hospitality experience to 29,000 leased selling square feet without. These new Galleries will represent our assortments from RH Interiors, Modern, Baby & Child, Teen and Outdoor and contain interior design offices and presentation rooms where design professionals can work with clients on their projects. Due to the reduced square footage compared to our recent Design Gallery openings and efficient design, this new model will be more capital efficient with less time and cost risk, but yield similar productivity. We anticipate the newdesigns include (i) prototype Design Galleries will represent approximately two thirds of our target markets. Future prototype location examples include Edina, MN, Corte Madera, CA, Columbus, OHthat are suited to many North American markets, similar to those we opened most recently in Charlotte and Charlotte, NC.

Second, we will continue to develop and open larger Bespoke Design Galleries in the top metropolitan markets, similar to those we opened in New York and Chicago. These iconic locations are highly profitable statements for our brand,Chicago, and we believe they create a long-term competitive advantage that will be difficult to duplicate.

Third, we will continue to open(iii) indigenous Bespoke Galleries in the best second home markets where the wealthy and affluent visit and vacation. These Galleries are tailored to reflect the local culture and are sized to the potential of each market. Examples of indigenous Bespoke Galleries include the Hamptons, Palm Beach,vacation including our location in Yountville, and Aspen.

Fourth, we are developing a newCalifornia as well as our Gallery model tailored to secondary markets. Targeted to be 10,000 to 18,000 square feet, we believe these smaller expressions of our brand will enable us to gain shareunder development in markets currently only served by smaller competitors. Examples of target secondary markets include Hartford, CT, Oklahoma City, OK and Milwaukee, WI, among others. We expect these Galleries to require a substantially smaller net investment than our larger Design Galleries and to pay back our capital investment within two years in most instances. Our plan is to test a few of these Galleries over the next several years, and if proven successful, this format could lead to an increase in our long-term Gallery targets.

We believe our multi-tier market approach to transforming our real estate will enable us to ramp our opening cadence from 3 to 5 new Galleries per year, to a pace of 5 to 7 new Galleries per year commencing in fiscal 2020.

We continue to evaluate potential opportunities for standalone RH Baby & Child, RH Teen and RH Modern Galleries in select markets.Aspen, Colorado.

Like our evolving multi-tier market approach, we have developed a multi-tier real estate strategy that is designed to significantly increase our unit level profitability and return on invested capital. Our threeSeveral of our primary deal constructs are outlined below:

First, due to the productivity and proof of concept of our recent new Galleries, and the addition of a powerful, traffic-generating hospitality experience, we are able to negotiate “capital light” leasing deals, where as much as 65% to 100%a substantial portion of the capital requirement would be funded by the landlord, versus 35% to 50% previously.landlord.
Second, in several of our currentselect projects we are migrating from a leasing to a development model. We currently have two Galleries, Yountville and Edina, usingMinneapolis, that have used this new model, and have additional projects in the pipeline. In the case of Yountville and Edina,Minneapolis, we expect to complete ahave completed sale-leaseback transactions that shouldhave allow us to recoup all or a large portion of our capital. In some cases we believe we may be able to pre-sell the property and structure the transaction where the capital to build the project is advanced by the buyer during construction, which could require zero upfront capital from us.
Third, we are working on joint venture projects, where we share the upside of a development with the developer/landlord. An example of this new model would be our future Gallery and Guesthouse in Aspen, where we are contributing the value of our lease to the development in exchange for a profits interest in the project. The developer will deliver to RH a substantially turnkey Gallery and Guesthouse, while we continue to retain a 20% and 25% profits interest in the properties, respectively. We would expect to monetize the profits interest at the time of sale of the properties, during the firstwhich we anticipate would occur within five years.years of such properties’ development. The net result should be a minimal capital investment to operationalize the business, with the expectation for a net positive capital benefit at time of monetization of the profits interest.

We anticipate that all of the above deal structures should lead to lower capital requirements, higher unit profitability, and significantly higher return on invested capital versus our prior Gallery development strategies.

Pursue International Expansion. We believe that our luxury brand positioning and unique aesthetic has strong international appeal, and pursuit of global expansion will provide RH access to a substantial long-term market opportunity to build a $20 billion global brand over time. As such, we are actively pursuing expanding the RH brand globally with the objective of launching in several international locations in 2021 or 2022. We have secured a number of locations in various markets in the United Kingdom and continental Europe in which we

Grow Our Integrated Hospitality Experience. transforming our real estate platform;
growing our merchandise assortment and introducing new products and categories;
expanding our service offerings,In 2015 we began to introduce an integrated hospitality experience, including design servicesrestaurants and cafes, wine vaults, into a number of our new Gallery locations. The success of our initial hospitality offering in Chicago led us to broaden this initiative by adding hospitality to a number of our other new Gallery locations. We believe this has created a unique new retail experience that cannot be replicated online, and coffee bars at our Design Galleries;that the addition of hospitality is helping to drive incremental sales of home furnishings in these Galleries. We plan to incorporate hospitality in many of the new Galleries that we open in the future.
exploring and testing new business opportunities complementary to our core business; and
increasing our brand awareness and customer loyalty through our Source Book circulation strategy, membership program, our digital marketing initiatives, advertising, and public relations activities and events.

During fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2018 we deferred the introduction of major new product category expansions other than the ongoing development of RH Hospitality in conjunction with new Design Galleries. In fiscal 2019, we have resumed introducing expansions in our merchandise assortment including a number of new merchandise collections in both RH Interiors and RH Modern, as well as the launch of RH Beach House in the Spring and RH Ski House in the Fall.

We also plan to increase our investment in RH Interior Design in fiscal 2019 with a goal of building the leading interior design firm in North America. We believe there is a significant revenue opportunity by offering world class design and installation services as we move the brand beyond creating and selling products, to conceptualizing and selling spaces.

Architect New Operating Platform. We have spent the last threeapproximately four years architecting a new operating platform, inclusive of transitioning from a promotional to membership model, our distribution center network redesign, the redesign of our reverse logistics and outlet business, and the reconceptualization of our home delivery and customer experience, which enables us to drive lower costs and inventory levels, and higher earnings and inventory turns. Looking forward, we expect this multi-year effort to result in a dramatically improved customer experience, continued margin enhancement and significant cost savings over the next several years.
GrowMaximize Cash Flow and Optimize the Allocation of Capital in the Business. From fiscal 2017 through and including fiscal 2020, we have increasingly operated our business with a goal to maximize cash flow and the allocation of capital. We believe that our operations and current initiatives are providing a significant opportunity to optimize the allocation of capital in our business, including generating free cash flow and optimizing our balance sheet. Our Integrated Hospitality Experience. focus on cash flow and capital allocation has permitted us to make long term decisions that benefit our business including deploying capital to repay debt and repurchase shares of our common stock, which we believe creates a benefit to our shareholders.

During fiscal 2017, we repurchased approximately 20.2 million shares of our common stock under two separate repurchase programs for an aggregate repurchase amount of approximately $1 billion. During fiscal 2018, we repurchased approximately 2.0 million shares of our common stock under a separate repurchase program for an aggregate repurchase amount of approximately $250 million. During fiscal 2019, we repurchased approximately 2.2 million shares of our common stock under a separate repurchase program for an aggregate repurchase amount of approximately $250 million. Our focus on cash also resulted in our generating substantial free cash flow in fiscal 2017 through 2019 and we expect this objective to continue to be a priority in fiscal 2020 and 2021 .

Increase Operating Margins.In 2015 Since fiscal 2016 and continuing through fiscal 2020, we beganhave substantially increased the operating margins in our business. While the time period during which we have had to introduce an integrated hospitality experience, including cafés, wine vaults and barista bars, intoadjust our operations to respond to the COVID-19 crisis will have some negative impact on margins, we believe that our longer term effort to increase operating margins will continue as the business continues to normalize after the effects of COVID-19 moderate. We anticipate continued improvements in operating margins as a result of our focus on a number of our new Gallery locations. The success ofstrategic initiatives including (i) the occupancy leverage we expect to gain from our initial hospitality offering in Chicago led us to broaden this initiative by adding hospitality to a number of our other new Gallery locations. We believe this has created a unique new retail experience that cannot be replicated online, and that the addition of hospitality is helpingreal estate transformation, (ii) product margin expansion as we continue to drive incremental saleshigher full price selling in our core business, and (iii) the continued cost savings of home furnishings in these Galleries.
Pursue International Expansion. We believe thatimprovements to our luxury brand positioningoperating platform and unique aesthetic will have strong international appeal. As such, we believe there is tremendous opportunity for the RH brand to expand globally and are currently exploring opportunities for Design Galleries in several locations outside the United States, including the United Kingdom and Europe.organizational structure.

Business Initiatives

We are undertaking a large number of new business initiatives in support of our key value driving strategies. In particular, beginning in fiscal 2016 and continuing through fiscal 2019,2020, we have pursued a range of strategic efforts to improve our business and operations including the following:

Introduction of Membership Model. In March 2016, we introduced the RH Members Program, an exclusive membership modelprogram that reimagines and simplifies the shopping experience. For an annual fee, the RH Members Program provides a set discount every day across all RH brands, excluding RH Hospitality and Waterworks, in addition to other benefits including complimentary interior design services through the RH Interior Design program and eligibility for

Table of Contents

preferred financing plans on the RH Credit Card, among others.other benefits. The RH Members Program allows our customers to shop for what they want, when they want, and receive the greatest value, which has resulted in orders and sales being more evenly distributed throughout the year as opposed to the peaks and valleys of orders and sales we experienced under the prior promotional model. We believe that transitioning our business from a promotional to membership model has enhanced our brand, simplified and streamlined our business as well as allowed us to develop deeper connections with our customers.
We believe that the shift to a membership model has positively affectedenhanced the financial results ofcustomer experience, rendered our business. Specifically, we believe some of the benefits include:brand more valuable, improved operational execution and reduced costs.

We believe that the shift to a membership model has positively affected the financial results of our business. Specifically, we believe some of the benefits include:

Improved customer experience. Our interior design professionals can now work with customers based on their timeline and project deadlines, as opposed to our prior promotional calendar. We believe this will lead to larger overall sales transactions for individual customer design projects.

Lower cancellations and returns. As a result of the elimination of time-limited promotional events and the associated pressure of placing an order before a promotion expires, we believe the shift to a membership model has also resulted in lower rates of cancelled orders and returns.

Improved operational costs. The volume of sales, orders and shipments in our business under the prior promotional model was characterized by large spikes in customer orders based upon promotional events followed by lower orders and sales after the end of an event. This buying pattern also affected numerous other aspects of our business, including staffing and costs as we required elevated staffing levels to service the increased number of customers during peak sales events. Likewise, significant fluctuations in sales had downstream implications for our supply chain related to merchandise orders, manufacturing and production, shipment to our distribution centers and final delivery to our customers. All of these aspects of our operations are experiencing improved efficiencies as a result of the membership model whereby sales are more evenly distributed throughout the year as opposed to the peaks and valleys of orders and sales under the prior model.

Distribution Center Network Redesign. As a result of our work to redesign our distribution network and optimize inventory, in fiscal 2017 we were able to forego building a fifth furniture distribution center planned to open and consolidate our current furniture distribution center network from four primary locations to two primary locations (Northern California and Baltimore, Maryland area). In fiscal 2017, we completed the closure of our furniture distribution centers in Los Angeles and Dallas, eliminating 1.75 million square feet of distribution center space, resulting in savings in excess of $20 million annually. In fiscal 2018, we completed the closure of a smaller furniture distribution center in Essex, Maryland, eliminating 500,000 square feet of distribution center space, resulting in savings in excess of $5 million annually. We believe managing our business in fewer facilities while decreasing our on-hand inventory will reduce fulfillment complexity, lower inventory transfer costs, increase inventory turns, improve working capital and should result in higher gross margins over time.
Reconceptualize Reverse Logistics Business. In fiscal 2017, we implemented initiatives to re-conceptualize our Outlet and reverse logistics business. Previously, returns of furniture would be transferred via our home delivery hubs back to a furniture distribution center, then eventually to one of our Outlet locations. Now, returns of furniture are transferred directly from our home delivery hubs to Outlets, which has reduced transportation and handling costs, and improved selling margins across our Outlet network. We believe this initiative yielded substantial savings and margin enhancement of approximately $20 million annually.
Luxury In-Home Furniture Delivery Experience. We believe there is an opportunity to improve the customer experience by enhancing our approach to services in connection with in-home delivery. We are in the process of implementing a number of measures that are designed to increase our level of control and improve servicesservice levels overthroughout the delivery experience to the customer’s residence. We believe that we are well positioned to develop improved solutions for in-home delivery to the customer in the luxury market. We have already adopted a number of service improvements that are yielding improvements in the customer experience and reductions in product return and exchange rates. We expect to continue to optimize our service offering to customers in connection with the in-home delivery experience and are confident that our efforts in this regard will continue to achieve substantial results.
Elevate the Customer ExperienceExperience.. We are continuing to pursue the positioning of our business as a luxury brand. As one part of this ongoing initiative, we are focused on improving the end-to-end customer experience. As we have elevated our brand, especially at retail, we are also working to enhance the brand experience in other aspects of our business. We are making changes in many aspects of our business processes that affect our

customers, including the in-home delivery experience, improvements in product quality and enhancements in sourcing, product availability, and all aspects of customer care and service. We also believe that the introduction of experiential brand-enhancing products and services, such as expanded design ateliers, the RH Interior Design program and the launch of an integrated hospitality experience in a number of our new Galleries, will further enhance our customers’ in-store experience, allowing us to further disrupt the highly fragmented home furnishings landscape and achieve market share gains.

In fiscal 2017, fiscal 2018 and continuing into fiscal 2019, we have focused on the allocation of capital. We believe that our operations and current initiatives are providing a significant opportunity to optimize the allocation of capital in our business, including generating free cash flow and optimizing our balance sheet, as well as deploying capital to repay debt and repurchase shares of our common stock, which we believe creates a long-term benefit to our shareholders.

We continue to pursue and test numerous initiatives to improve many aspects of our business including through efforts to optimize inventory, elevate the home delivery experience, simplify our distribution network and improve our organizational design including by streamlining and realigning our home office operations, as well as to expandelevate our product offering, and transform our real estate using a range of different models for specific real estate development projects.projects and expand our brand internationally. Many of these initiatives and other initiatives such as our transition to a direct sourcing model for our rug business have improved our operating margins, but other initiatives such as RH Hospitality, Waterworks and investments to develop our international expansion strategy are expected to offset some planned margin improvement in fiscal 2020 due to our investments in these platforms. There can be no assurance as to the timing and extent of the operational benefits and financial contributions of these strategic efforts. In addition, our pursuit of multiple initiatives with respect to our business in any given period may result in period-to-period changes in, and increased fluctuation in, our results of operations. For example,We have also experienced delays in development timelines for some of our efforts to optimize our distribution network could cause us to incur costsrecent projects, and expenses in the short term with respect to changes in the way in which we operate our business. Delaysdelays in completion of our real estate development projects or costs overruns could also negatively affect our results of operation.operations and revenues. Further, macroeconomic or political events outside of our control could impact our ability to pursue our initiatives or the success of such initiatives. For example, whileWhile we believe that the tariffs imposed to date on most of our goods sourced from China have not had an adverse effect on our results of operations, including our revenues, margins and earnings, there can be no assurance that the existing tariffs and the additional tarriffstariffs that will become effective, as well as other future tariffs that may be imposed, will not adversely affect our results of operation in future time periods. In addition, in recent periods the

The stock market has experienced significant increases in volatility during fiscal 2020. In general we have experienced some correlation between stock market performance and consumer spending patterns in our business. Accordingly, we may encounter shifts in consumer spending in future time periods as well as periodsa result of significant decline, which may negatively affect the financial health and demand levels of high-end consumers, and we can provide no assurance as to whether such trends will occurstock market declines including in the future.event that heightened market volatility related to the COVID-19 health crisis or other factors including deterioration in market conditions leads to stock price declines. Our business is also correlated to the housing market. The housing market is affected by a range of factors including home prices and interest rates and slowdowns in the housing market can have a negative impact on demand for our products. Factors that affect the higher end housing market in particular may have an outsized influence on our levels of consumer demand since our business is geared toward the higher end of the home furnishings market. The above factors and other current and future operational initiatives may create additional uncertainty with respect to our consolidated net revenues and profit in the near term.

Matters Affecting Comparability

The disruption to our business operations from the initial wave of the COVID-19 outbreak has had a significant impact on the comparability of certain ratios and year-over-year trends for our operating results for the three and six months ended August 1, 2020 as compared to the three and six months ended August 3, 2019. The primary negative impact to our revenues from store closures occurred during the first quarter of fiscal 2020, but despite the reopening of most of our Galleries during the second fiscal quarter and a strong resurgence in customer demand for our products, we have continued to address a range of business circumstances related to COVID-19 including delays in inventory receipts and manufacturing as our supply chain recovers from the impact of the global health crisis. We have also changed the cadence of our expenses and investments as we have sought to address the impact of COVID-19 on the business. During the first quarter of fiscal 2020, we implemented a number of short-term and long-term initiatives in response to COVID-19 including the implementation of a business reorganization and the deferral of certain investments. During the second fiscal quarter of 2020 we have resumed many investments and previously deferred expenditures but we anticipate that our decisions regarding these matters will continue to evolve in response to changing business circumstances including further developments with respect to COVID-19.

(1)Adjusted net income is a supplemental measure of financial performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). We define adjusted net income as consolidated net income, adjusted for the impact of certain non-recurring and other items that we do not consider representative of our underlying operating performance. Adjusted net income is included in this filing because management believes that adjusted net income provides meaningful supplemental information for investors regarding the performance of our business and facilitates a meaningful evaluation of operatingactual results on a

(a)Under GAAP, certain convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash on conversion are required to be separately accounted for as liability and equity components of the instrument in a manner that reflects the issuer’s non-convertible debt borrowing rate. Accordingly, in accounting for GAAP purposes for the $350 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes that were issued in June 2014 (the “2019 Notes”), for the $300 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes that were issued in June and July 2015 (the “2020 Notes”) and 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 2019 Notes, 2020 Notes, 2023 Notes and 20232024 Notes into liability (debt) and equity (conversion option) components and we are amortizing as debt discount an amount equal to the fair value of the equity components as interest expense on the 2019 Notes, 2020 Notes, 2023 Notes and 20232024 Notes over their expected lives. The equity components represent the difference between the proceeds from the issuance of the 2019 Notes, 2020 Notes, 2023 Notes and 20232024 Notes and the fair value of the liability components of the 2019 Notes, 2020 Notes, 2023 Notes and 20232024 Notes, respectively. Amounts are presented net of interest capitalized for capital projects of $0.7$1.3 million and $0.8$0.7 million during the three months ended August 3, 20191, 2020 and August 4, 2018,3, 2019, respectively.

(2)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 expenseexpense—net and income tax expense. 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. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are included in this filing because management believes that these metrics provide meaningful supplemental information for investors regarding the performance of our business and facilitate a meaningful evaluation of operating results on a comparable basis with historical results. Our management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in order to have comparable financial results to analyze changes in our underlying business from quarter to quarter. Our measures of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not necessarily comparable to other similarly titled captions for other companies due to different methods of calculation.

Consolidated net revenues for the three months ended August 4, 2018 were negatively impacted by $1.9 million related to the reduction of revenue associated with product recalls. Excluding the product recall adjustment, consolidated net revenues increased $63.9 million, or 9.9%, to $706.5 million in the three months ended August 3, 2019 compared to $642.7 million in the three months ended August 4, 2018. Product recalls and the establishment or adjustment of any related recall accruals can affect our results and cause quarterly fluctuations affecting the period-to-period comparisons of our results. No assurance can be provided that any accruals will be for the appropriate amount, and actual losses could be higher or lower than what we accrue from time to time, which could further affect results.

RH Segment net revenues

RH Segment net revenues increased $64.7 million, or 10.7%, to $672.3 million in the three months ended August 3, 2019 compared to $607.6 million in the three months ended August 4, 2018. The below discussion highlights several significant factors that resulted in increased RH Segment net revenues, which are listed in order of magnitude.

RH Segment core net revenues increased primarily due to existing Galleries, as well as an increase in retail weighted-average selling square footage related to new store openings, including New York, Nashville and Yountville, and we experienced better than expected delivered sales in the last few weeks of the quarter. Net revenues also increased from our RH Hospitality operations and Contract business.

RH Segment outlet sales increased $16.0 million to $53.9 million in the three months ended August 3, 2019 compared to $37.9 million in the three months ended August 4, 2018 primarily due to increased promotional activity as a result of our efforts to reduce inventory subsequent to the distribution center closures of as part of the distribution center network redesign, as well as an increase of four outlet locations year over year.

RH Segment net revenues for the three months ended August 4, 2018 were negatively impacted by $1.9 million related to the reduction of revenue associated with product recalls.

Waterworks net revenues

Waterworks net revenues increased $1.0 million, or 3.0%, to $34.2 million in the three months ended August 3, 2019 compared to $33.2 million in the three months ended August 4, 2018.

Gross profit

Consolidated gross profit increased $26.6 million, or 9.9%, to $295.0 million in the three months ended August 3, 2019 from $268.3 million in the three months ended August 4, 2018. As a percentage of net revenues, consolidated gross margin decreased 0.2% to 41.7% of net revenues in the three months ended August 3, 2019 from 41.9% of net revenues in the three months ended August 4, 2018.

RH Segment gross profit for the three months ended August 3, 2019 was negatively impacted by $1.9 million related to the acceleration of depreciation due to a change in the estimated useful lives of certain assets. RH Segment gross profit for the three months ended August 3, 2019 and August 4, 2018 was positively impacted by $0.3 million and $1.4 million, respectively, related to reserve adjustments associated with product recalls initiated in prior years, partially offset by the reduction of revenue and incremental costs associated with such product recalls.

Waterworks gross profit for the three months ended August 4, 2018 was negatively impacted by $0.2 million of amortization related to the inventory fair value adjustment recorded in connection with the acquisition.

Excluding the acceleration of depreciation, the product recall adjustments and the impact of the amortization related to the inventory fair value adjustment mentioned above, consolidated gross margin would have increased 0.4% to 42.0% of net revenues in the three months ended August 3, 2019 from 41.6% of net revenues in the three months ended August 4, 2018.

RH Segment gross profit

RH Segment gross profit increased $25.0 million, or 9.8%, to $280.5 million in the three months ended August 3, 2019 from $255.5 million in the three months ended August 4, 2018. As a percentage of net revenues, RH Segment gross margin decreased 0.4% to 41.7% of net revenues in the three months ended August 3, 2019 from 42.1% of net revenues in the three months ended August 4, 2018.

Excluding the acceleration of depreciation and product recall adjustments mentioned above, RH Segment gross margin would have increased 0.3% to 42.0% of net revenues in the three months ended August 3, 2019 from 41.7% of net revenues in the three months ended August 4, 2018. The increase was primarily related to improvements in our

48

Table of Contents

distribution center network redesign resulting in reduced delivery expense and leverage in occupancy costs. The overall increase was partially offset by lower outlet product margins due to increased promotional activity and higher discounts due to our efforts to reduce inventory subsequent to the distribution center closures.

Waterworks gross profit

Waterworks gross profit increased $1.7 million, or 12.9%, to $14.5 million in the three months ended August 3, 2019 from $12.8 million in the three months ended August 4, 2018. As a percentage of net revenues, Waterworks gross margin increased 3.7% to 42.4% of net revenues in the three months ended August 3, 2019 from 38.7% of net revenues in the three months ended August 4, 2018.

Excluding the impact of the amortization related to the inventory fair value adjustment mentioned above, Waterworks gross margin would have increased 3.1% to 42.4% of net revenues in the three months ended August 3, 2019 from 39.3% of net revenues in the three months ended August 4, 2018.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses increased $4.5 million, or 2.4%, to $191.0 million in the three months ended August 3, 2019 compared to $186.5 million in the three months ended August 4, 2018.

RH Segment selling, general and administrative expenses

RH Segment selling, general and administrative expenses increased $4.3 million, or 2.5%, to $177.4 million in the three months ended August 3, 2019 compared $173.2 million in the three months ended August 4, 2018.

RH Segment selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended August 3, 2019 included a favorable $1.2 million legal settlement related to historical freight charges, partially offset by a $0.6 million asset impairment.

RH Segment selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended August 4, 2018 included a favorable $7.2 million legal settlement, net of related legal expenses, partially offset by a $1.7 million charge related to the supply chain reorganization, including the closure of the Dallas customer call center, and $0.3 million related to product recalls.

Excluding the adjustments for the legal settlements, asset impairments, reorganization and product recalls mentioned above, RH Segment selling, general and administrative expenses were 26.5% and 29.3% of net revenues for the three months ended August 3, 2019 and August 4, 2018, respectively. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net revenues was primarily driven by leverage in our employment and employment related costs as a result of our organization redesign and, to a lesser extent, leverage in our corporate expenses and advertising and marketing costs.

(Gain) loss on extinguishment of debt

We recognized a $1.0 million gain on extinguishment of debt in the three months ended August 3, 2019 due to the maturity and settlement of the 2019 Notes in June 2019. We incurred a $0.9 million loss on extinguishment of debt in the three months ended August 4, 2018 due to the repayment in full of the LILO term loan, the promissory note secured by our aircraft and the equipment security notes in June 2018, which includes acceleration of amortization of debt issuance costs of $0.6 million and a prepayment penalty of $0.3 million.

Income tax expense

Income tax expense was $16.7 million and $2.5 million in the three months ended August 3, 2019 and August 4, 2018, respectively. Our effective tax rate was 20.7% and 3.9% for the three months ended August 3, 2019 and August 4, 2018, respectively. The increase in our effective tax rate is primarily due to lower discrete tax benefits related to net excess tax windfalls from stock-based compensation in the three months ended August 3, 2019 as compared to the three months ended August 4, 2018, as well as a discrete tax impact related to the legal settlement in the three months ended August 4, 2018.

(Gain) lossGain on extinguishment of debt

We recognized a $0.2 million gain on extinguishment of debt in the six months ended August 1, 2020 related to the maturity and settlement of the 2020 Notes in July 2020. We recognized a $1.0 million gain on extinguishment of debt in the six months ended August 3, 2019 duerelated to the maturity and settlement of the 2019 Notes in June 2019. We incurred a $0.9 million loss on extinguishment of debt in the six months ended August 4, 2018 due to the repayment in full of the LILO term loan, the promissory note secured by our aircraft and the equipment security notes in June 2018, which includes acceleration of amortization of debt issuance costs of $0.6 million and a prepayment penalty of $0.3 million.

Income tax expense

Income tax expense was $28.5$17.5 million and $10.1$28.5 million in the six months ended August 3, 20191, 2020 and August 4, 2018,3, 2019, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The primary cash needs of our business have historically been for merchandise inventories, payroll, Source Books, store rent, capital expenditures associated with opening new stores and updating existing stores, 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. In fiscal 2017, we completed two share repurchase programs in an aggregate amount of $1 billion. A $300 million share repurchase was completed during the first quarter of fiscal 2017 and a $700 million share repurchase was completed during the second quarter of fiscal 2017. In October 2018, our Board of Directors approved a new $700 million share repurchase program, of which $250 million in share repurchases were completed in fiscal 2018, and the $700 million authorization amount was replenished by the Board of Directors in March 2019. During the first quarter of fiscal 2019, we repurchased approximately 2.2 million shares of our common stock for an aggregate repurchase amount of approximately $250 million, with $450 million still available under the $700 million repurchase program. Refer to “Share Repurchase Programs” below. We intend to evaluate our capital allocation from time to time and may engage in future share repurchases in circumstances where buying shares of our common stock represents a good value and provides a favorable return for our shareholders.

We have $635$685 million in aggregate principal amount of convertible notes outstanding as of August 1, 2020, of which $300 million mature in June 2020 and $335 million mature in June 2023.2023 (the “2023 Notes”) and $350 million mature in September 2024 (the “2024 Notes”). Based on the anticipated strong cash flow generation in 20192020 and beyond, we expect to repay the outstanding principal amount of theour convertible notes at maturity in June 20202023 and June 2023September 2024 in cash, in each case to minimize dilution. While we purchased convertible note hedges and sold warrants with respect to each convertible note transaction, which are intended to offset any actual earnings dilution from the conversion of the 2024 Notes until our common stock is above approximately $338.24 per share and from the conversion of the 2023 Notes until our common stock is above approximately $309.84 per share, our shareholders may still experience dilution to the extent our common stock trades above such levels. While we anticipate using excess cash, free cash flow and borrowings on our revolving line ofasset based credit facility to repay the convertible notes in cash to minimize dilution, we may need to pursue additional sources of liquidity to repay such convertible notes in cash at their respective maturity dates.dates or upon early conversion, as applicable. There can be no assurance as to the availability of capital to fund such repayments, or that if capital is available through additional debt issuances or refinancing of the convertible notes, that such capital will be available on terms that are favorable to us.

Our business has historically relied on cash flows from operations, net cash proceeds from the issuance of the convertible senior notes, as well as borrowings under our credit facilities as our primary sources of liquidity. We believe our 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 strengthnext 12 months.

While we have taken measures to defer some capital expenditures and other expenses in response to the COVID-19 health crisis, we expect to resume those investments as and to the extent that conditions for our business continue to improve during the COVID-19 crisis. We will continue to closely manage our expenses and investments while considering both the overall economic environment as well as the needs of our business operations. In addition, our near term decisions regarding the sources and uses of capital in our business will continue to reflect and adapt to changes in market conditions and our business related to the impact of COVID-19.

While we have continued to serve our customers and operate our business through the initial phase of the COVID-19 health crisis, and have now substantially reopened our retail locations in the U.S. and Canada, there can be no assurance that future events will not have an impact on our business, results of operations or financial condition since the extent and duration of the health crisis remains uncertain. Future adverse developments in connection with the COVID-19 crisis, including additional waves of COVID-19 outbreaks, evolving international, federal, state and local restrictions and safety regulations in response to COVID-19 risks, changes in consumer behavior and health concerns, the pace of economic activity in the wake of the COVID-19 crisis, or other similar issues could adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition in the future, or our financial results and business performance for the fiscal year ending January 30, 2021.

In recognition of the significant threat to economic conditions and the reductionliquidity of financial markets posed by COVID-19, the Federal Reserve and Congress have taken dramatic actions to provide liquidity to businesses and the banking system in leveragethe U.S. For example, on March 27, 2020, the President signed into law the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), a sweeping stimulus bill intended to bolster the U.S. economy, among other things, and provide emergency assistance to qualifying businesses and individuals. There can be no assurance that these interventions by the government will be successful, and the financial markets may experience significant contractions in available liquidity. While we have achieved during the past year puts us inmay receive financial, tax or other relief and other benefits under and as a strong position to take advantageresult of the capital markets opportunistically. We believe we have multiple financing alternatives availableCARES Act, it is not possible to us on favorable terms that could provide us with additional financial flexibility with respect to capital allocation.estimate at this time the availability, extent or impact of any future relief.

We extended and amended our revolving line ofasset based credit facility in June 2017, which has a total availability of $600 million, of which $10 million is available to Restoration Hardware Canada, Inc., and includes a $200 million accordion feature under which the revolving line of credit may be expanded by agreement of the parties from $600 million to up to $800 million if and to the extent the lenders revise their credit commitments to encompass a larger facility. The revolving line of credit has a maturity date of June 28, 2022.

We have pursuedwhich qualified for sale-leaseback accounting in the past, and may pursue in the future, additional strategies to generate liquidity for our operations, including through the strategic sale of assets, utilization of our credit facilities, and entry into new debt financing arrangements that present attractive terms.

accordance with ASC 842. We may pursue strategies in the future, through the use of existing assets and debt facilities, or through the pursuit of new external sources of liquidity and debt financings,financing, to fund our strategies to enhance stockholder value. There can be no assurance that additional capital, whether raised through the sale of assets, utilization of our existing debt financing sources, or pursuit of additional debt financing sources, will be available to us on a timely manner, on favorable terms or at all. To the extent we pursue additional debt as a source of liquidity, our capitalization profile may change and may include significant leverage, and as a result we may be required to use future liquidity to repay such indebtedness and may be subject to additional terms and restrictions which affect our operations and future uses of capital.

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 choose to pursue. We have invested significant capital expenditures in remodeling 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 net capital expenditures include (i) capital expenditures from investing activities and (ii) cash outflows of capital related to construction activities to design and build landlord leased assets, net of tenant allowances received. Given the pace at which business conditions are evolving in response to the COVID-19 health crisis, we may further adjust our investments in various business initiatives including our capital expenditures over the course of fiscal 2020. We anticipate our adjusted net capital expenditures, net of asset sales, to be $160$125 million to $170$150 million in fiscal 2019,2020, primarily related to our efforts to continue our growth and expansion, including construction of new Design Galleries and infrastructure investments. We anticipate that our fiscal 2019 adjusted net capital expenditures will be partially offset by proceeds from sales of assets of $50 million to $60 million. During the six months ended August 3, 2019,1, 2020, adjusted net capital expenditures were $52.8$70.5 million, inclusivenet of cash received related to landlord tenant allowances of $15.7$10.2 million. Our fiscal 2020 adjusted capital expenditures are partially offset by net proceeds from sales of assets of $25.0 million.

Certain lease arrangements require the landlord to fund a portion of the construction related costs through payments directly to us. Other lease arrangements for our new Design Galleries require the landlord to fund a portion of the construction related costs directly to third parties, rather than through traditional construction allowances and accordingly, under these arrangements we do not expect to receive contributions directly from our landlords related to the building of our Design Galleries. As we develop new Galleries, as well as other potential strategic initiatives in the future like our integrated hospitality experience, we may explore other models for our real estate, which could include 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. These approaches might require greater capital investment on our part than a traditional store lease with a landlord. We also believe there is an opportunity to transition our real estate strategy from a leasing model to a development model, where we potentially buy and develop our Design Galleries then recoup the investments through a sale leasebacksale-leaseback arrangement resulting in lower capital investment and lower rent. For example, we have used this strategy in fiscal 2019 through the sale-leaseback transaction for the Yountville Design Gallery and in July 2020 through the sale-leaseback transaction for the Minneapolis Design Gallery. In the event that such capital and other expenditures require us to pursue additional funding sources, we can provide no assurances that we will be successful in securing additional funding on attractive terms or at all.

In addition, we continue to address the effects of COVID-19 on our business with respect to real estate development and the introduction of new Galleries in both the US and internationally. A range of factors involved in the development of new Gallery and RH Hospitality may be affected by the COVID-19 health crisis including delays in construction as well as permitting and other necessary governmental actions. In addition, the scope and cadence of investments by third parties including landlords and other real estate counterparties may be adversely affected by the health crisis. Actions taken by international as well as federal, state and local government authorities, and in some instances mall and shopping center owners, in response to the outbreak, may require changes to our real estate strategy and related capital expenditure and financing plans. In addition, we may continue to be required to make lease payments in whole or in part for our Galleries, restaurants and outlets that were temporarily closed or are required to close in the future in the event of future COVID-19 outbreaks or for other reasons. Any efforts to mitigate the costs of construction delays and deferrals, retail closures and other operational difficulties, including any such difficulties resulting from COVID-19, such as by negotiating with landlords and other third parties regarding the timing and amount of payments under existing contractual arrangements, may not be successful, and as a result, our real estate strategy may have ongoing significant liquidity needs even as we make changes to our planned operations and expansion cadence.

There can be no assurance that we will have sufficient financial resources, or will be able to arrange financing on favorable terms to the extent necessary to fund all of our initiatives, or that sufficient incremental debt will be available to us in order to fund our cash payments in respect of the repayment of our outstanding convertible senior notes in an aggregate principal amount of $635$685 million at maturity of such senior convertible notes. To the extent we need to secure additional sources of liquidity, we cannot assure you that we will be able to raise necessary funds on favorable terms, if at all, or that future financing requirements would 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 COVID-19 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 upon maturity of such 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.

Any weakening of, or other adverse developments in, the U.S. or global credit markets could affect our ability to manage our debt obligations and our ability to access future debt. We cannot assure you that we will be able to raise necessary funds on favorable terms, if at all, or that future financing requirements would not require us to raise money through an equity financing or by other means that could be dilutive to holders of our capital stock. If we fail to raise sufficient additional funds, we may be required to delay or abandon some of our planned future expenditures or aspects of our current operations.

Convertible Senior Notes

Refer to Note 9—Convertible Senior Notes in our condensed consolidated financial statements for further information on our 0.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2024, 0.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2023

In June 2018, we issued in a private offering $300 million principal amount of and 0.00% convertible senior notesConvertible 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”). The 2023 Notes are governed by the terms of an indenture between us and U.S. Bank National Association, as the Trustee. The 2023 Notes will mature on June 15, 2023, unless earlier purchased by us or converted. The 2023 Notes will not bear interest, except that the 2023 Notes will be subject to “special interest” in certain limited circumstances in the event of our failure to perform certain of our obligations under the indenture governing the 2023 Notes. The 2023 Notes are unsecured obligations and do not contain any financial covenants or restrictions on the payments of dividends, the incurrence of indebtedness or the issuance or repurchase of securities by us or any of our subsidiaries. Certain events are also considered “events of default” under the 2023 Notes, which may result in the acceleration of the maturity of the 2023 Notes, as described in the indenture governing the 2023 Notes.

The initial conversion rate applicable to the 2023 Notes is 5.1640 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2023 Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $193.65 per share. The conversion rate will be subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified events, but will not be adjusted for any accrued and unpaid special interest. In addition, upon the occurrence of a “make-whole fundamental change” as defined in the indenture, we will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate by a number of additional shares for a holder that elects to convert its 2023 Notes in connection with such make-whole fundamental change.

Prior to March 15, 2023, the 2023 Notes will be 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. As of August 3, 2019, none of these conditions have occurred and, as a result, the 2023 Notes were not convertible as of August 3, 2019. 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.

57

Table of Contents

We may not redeem the 2023 Notes; however, upon the occurrence of a fundamental change (as defined in the indenture governing the notes), holders may require us to purchase all or a portion of their 2023 Notes for cash at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2023 Notes to be purchased plus any accrued and unpaid special interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change purchase date.

Under GAAP, certain convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash on conversion are required to be separately accounted for as liability and equity components of the instrument in a manner that reflects the issuer’s non-convertible debt borrowing rate. Accordingly, in accounting for the issuance of the 2023 Notes, we separated the 2023 Notes into liability and equity components. The carrying amount of the liability component was calculated by measuring the fair value of a similar liability that does not have an associated convertible feature. The carrying amount of the equity component, which is recognized as a debt discount, represents the difference between the proceeds from the issuance of the 2023 Notes and the fair value of the liability component of the 2023 Notes. The excess of the principal amount of the liability component over its carrying amount (“debt discount”) will be amortized to interest expense using an effective interest rate of 6.35% over the expected life of the 2023 Notes. The equity component is not remeasured as long as it continues to meet the conditions for equity classification.

In accounting for the debt issuance costs related to the issuance of the 2023 Notes, we allocated the total amount incurred to the liability and equity components based on their relative values. Debt issuance costs attributable to the liability component are amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the expected life of the 2023 Notes, and debt issuance costs attributable to the equity component are netted with the equity component in stockholders’ equity (deficit).

Debt issuance costs related to the 2023 Notes were comprised of discounts upon original issuance of $1.7 million and third party offering costs of $4.6 million. Discounts and third party offering costs attributable to the liability component are recorded as a contra-liability and are presented net against the convertible senior notes due 2023 balance on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

2023 Notes—Convertible Bond Hedge and Warrant Transactions

In connection with the offering of the 2023 Notes and the exercise of the overallotment option in June 2018, we entered into convertible note hedge transactions whereby we have the option to purchase a total of approximately 1.7 million shares of our common stock at a price of approximately $193.65 per share. The total cost of the convertible note hedge transactions was $91.9 million. In addition, we sold warrants whereby the holders of the warrants have the option to purchase a total of approximately 1.7 million shares of our common stock at a price of $309.84 per share. The warrants contain certain adjustment mechanisms whereby the total number of shares to be purchased under such warrants may be increased up to a cap of 3.5 million shares of common stock (which cap may also be subject to adjustment). We received $51.0 million in cash proceeds from the sale of these warrants. Taken together, the purchase of the convertible note hedges and sale of the warrants are intended to offset any actual earnings dilution from the conversion of the 2023 Notes until our common stock is above approximately $309.84 per share. As these transactions meet certain accounting criteria, the convertible note hedges and warrants are recorded in stockholders’ equity (deficit), are not accounted for as derivatives and are not remeasured each reporting period. The net costs incurred in connection with the convertible note hedge and warrant transactions were recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

We recorded a deferred tax liability of $22.3 million in connection with the debt discount associated with the 2023 Notes and recorded a deferred tax asset of $22.5 million in connection with the convertible note hedge transactions. The deferred tax liability and deferred tax asset are recorded in deferred tax assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

2020. Our 0.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2020

In June 2015, we issued in a private offering $250 million principal amount of 0.00% convertible senior notes due 2020 and, in July 2015, we issued an additional $50 million principal amount pursuant to the exercise of the overallotment option granted to the initial purchasers as part of our June 2015 offering (collectively, the “2020 Notes”). The 2020 Notes are governed by the terms of an indenture between us and U.S. Bank National Association, as the

Table of Contents

Trustee. The 2020 Notes will mature matured on July 15, 2020, unless earlier purchased by us or converted. The 2020 Notes will not bear interest, except that the 2020 Notes will be subject to “special interest” in certain limited circumstances in the event of our failure to perform certain of our obligations under the indenture governing the 2020 Notes. The 2020 Notes are unsecured obligations and do not contain any financial covenants or restrictions on the payments of dividends, the incurrence of indebtedness or the issuance or repurchase of securities by us or any of our subsidiaries. Certain events are also considered “events of default” under the 2020 Notes, which may result in the acceleration of the maturity of the 2020 Notes, as described in the indenture governing the 2020 Notes. The 2020 Notes are guaranteed by our primary operating subsidiary, Restoration Hardware, Inc., as Guarantor. The guarantee is the unsecured obligation of the Guarantor and is subordinated to the Guarantor’s obligations from time to time with respect to its credit agreement and ranks equal in right of payment with respect to Guarantor’s other obligations.2020.

The initial conversion rate applicable to the 2020 Notes is 8.4656 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2020 Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $118.13 per share. The conversion rate will be subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified events, but will not be adjusted for any accrued and unpaid special interest. In addition, upon the occurrence of a “make-whole fundamental change” as defined in the indenture, we will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate by a number of additional shares for a holder that elects to convert its 2020 Notes in connection with such make-whole fundamental change.

Prior to March 15, 2020, the 2020 Notes will be convertible only under the following circumstances: (1) during any calendar quarter commencing after September 30, 2015, 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 2020 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. As of August 3, 2019, none of these conditions have occurred and, as a result, the 2020 Notes were not convertible as of August 3, 2019. On and after March 15, 2020, 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 2020 Notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances. Upon conversion, the 2020 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.

We may not redeem the 2020 Notes; however, upon the occurrence of a fundamental change (as defined in the indenture governing the notes), holders may require us to purchase all or a portion of their 2020 Notes for cash at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2020 Notes to be purchased plus any accrued and unpaid special interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change purchase date.

Under GAAP, certain convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash on conversion are required to be separately accounted for as liability and equity components of the instrument in a manner that reflects the issuer’s non-convertible debt borrowing rate. Accordingly, in accounting for the issuance of the 2020 Notes, we separated the 2020 Notes into liability and equity components. The carrying amount of the liability component was calculated by measuring the fair value of a similar liability that does not have an associated convertible feature. The carrying amount of the equity component, which is recognized as a debt discount, represents the difference between the proceeds from the issuance of the 2020 Notes and the fair value of the liability component of the 2020 Notes. The debt discount will be amortized to interest expense using an effective interest rate of 6.47% over the expected life of the 2020 Notes. The equity component is not remeasured as long as it continues to meet the conditions for equity classification.

In accounting for the debt issuance costs related to the issuance of the 2020 Notes, we allocated the total amount incurred to the liability and equity components based on their relative values. Debt issuance costs attributable to the liability component are amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the expected life of the 2020 Notes, and debt issuance costs attributable to the equity component are netted with the equity component in stockholders’ equity (deficit).

Debt issuance costs related to the 2020 Notes were comprised of discounts upon original issuance of $3.8 million and third party offering costs of $2.3 million. Discounts and third party offering costs attributable to the liability

2020 Notes—Convertible Bond Hedge and Warrant Transactions

In connection with the offering of the 2020 Notes in June 2015 and the exercise in full of the overallotment option in July 2015, we entered into convertible note hedge transactions whereby we have the option to purchase a total of approximately 2.5 million shares of our common stock at a price of approximately $118.13 per share. The total cost of the convertible note hedge transactions was $68.3 million. In addition, we sold warrants whereby the holders of the warrants have the option to purchase a total of approximately 2.5 million shares of our common stock at a price of $189.00 per share. The warrants contain certain adjustment mechanisms whereby the total number of shares to be purchased under such warrants may be increased up to a cap of 5.1 million shares of common stock (which cap may also be subject to adjustment). We received $30.4 million in cash proceeds from the sale of these warrants. Taken together, the purchase of the convertible note hedges and sale of the warrants are intended to offset any actual earnings dilution from the conversion of the 2020 Notes until our common stock is above approximately $189.00 per share. As these transactions meet certain accounting criteria, the convertible note hedges and warrants are recorded in stockholders’ equity (deficit), are not accounted for as derivatives and are not remeasured each reporting period. The net costs incurred in connection with the convertible note hedge and warrant transactions were recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

We recorded a deferred tax liability of $32.8 million in connection with the debt discount associated with the 2020 Notes and recorded a deferred tax asset of $26.6 million in connection with the convertible note hedge transactions. The deferred tax liability and deferred tax asset are recorded in deferred tax assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

0.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2019

In June 2014, we issued $350 million aggregate principal amount of 0.00% convertible senior notes due 2019 (the “2019 Notes”) in a private offering. The 2019 Notes were governed by the terms of an indenture between us and U.S. Bank National Association, as the Trustee. The 2019 Notes did not bear interest, except that the 2019 Notes were subject to “special interest” in certain limited circumstances in the event of our failure to perform certain of our obligations under the indenture governing the 2019 Notes. The 2019 Notes were unsecured obligations and did not contain any financial covenants or restrictions on the payments of dividends, the incurrence of indebtedness or the issuance or repurchase of securities by us or any of our subsidiaries. Certain events were also considered “events of default” under the 2019 Notes, which could result in the acceleration of the maturity of the 2019 Notes, as described in the indenture governing the 2019 Notes. The 2019 Notes matured on June 15, 2019.

The initial conversion rate applicable to the 2019 Notes was 8.6143 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2019 Notes, which was equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $116.09 per share. The conversion rate was subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified events, but was not adjusted for any accrued and unpaid special interest. In addition, upon the occurrence of a “make-whole fundamental change,” we would, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate by a number of additional shares for a holder that elected to convert its 2019 Notes in connection with such make-whole fundamental change.

Prior to March 15, 2019, the 2019 Notes were convertible only under the following circumstances: (1) during any calendar quarter commencing after September 30, 2014, 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 2019 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. On and after March 15, 2019, until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders could have converted all or a portion of their 2019 Notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances.

In June 2019, upon the maturity of the 2019 Notes, $350.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2019 Notes were settled for $349.0 million in cash and 42 shares of our common stock. As a result, we recognized a gain on extinguishment of debt of $1.0 million. As of August 3, 2019, the 2019 Notes are no longer outstanding.

Upon the occurrence of a fundamental change (as defined in the indenture governing the notes), holders could have required us to purchase all or a portion of their 2019 Notes for cash at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2019 Notes to be purchased plus any accrued and unpaid special interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change purchase date.

Under GAAP, certain convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash on conversion are required to be separately accounted for as liability and equity components of the instrument in a manner that reflects the issuer’s non-convertible debt borrowing rate. Accordingly, in accounting for the issuance of the 2019 Notes, we separated the 2019 Notes into liability and equity components. The carrying amount of the liability component was calculated by measuring the fair value of a similar liability that does not have an associated convertible feature. The carrying amount of the equity component, which is recognized as a debt discount, represents the difference between the proceeds from the issuance of the 2019 Notes and the fair value of the liability component of the 2019 Notes. The debt discount was amortized to interest expense using an effective interest rate of 4.51% over the expected life of the 2019 Notes. The equity component was not remeasured as long as it continued to meet the conditions for equity classification.

In accounting for the debt issuance costs related to the issuance of the 2019 Notes, we allocated the total amount incurred to the liability and equity components based on their relative values. Debt issuance costs attributable to the liability component were amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the expected life of the 2019 Notes, and debt issuance costs attributable to the equity component were netted with the equity component in stockholders’ equity (deficit).

Debt issuance costs related to the 2019 Notes were comprised of discounts and commissions payable to the initial purchasers of $4.4 million and third party offering costs of $1.0 million. Discounts, commissions payable to the initial purchasers and third party offering costs attributable to the liability component were recorded as a contra-liability and were presented net against the convertible senior notes due 2019 balance on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

2019 Notes—Convertible Bond Hedge and Warrant Transactions

In connection with the offering of the 2019 Notes, we entered into convertible note hedge transactions whereby we had the option to purchase a total of approximately 3.0 million shares of our common stock at a price of approximately $116.09 per share. The total cost of the convertible note hedge transactions was $73.3 million. The convertible note hedge terminated upon the maturity date of the 2019 Notes. In addition, we sold warrants whereby the holders of the warrants have the option to purchase a total of approximately 3.0 million shares of our common stock at a price of $171.98 per share. The warrants contain certain adjustment mechanisms whereby the total number of shares to be purchased under such warrants may be increased up to a cap of 6.0 million shares of common stock (which cap may also be subject to adjustment). The warrants will expire through December 2019. We received $40.4 million in cash proceeds from the sale of these warrants. Taken together, the purchase of the convertible note hedges and sale of the warrants are intended to offset any actual dilution from the conversion of the 2019 Notes and to effectively increase the overall conversion price from $116.09 per share to $171.98 per share. As these transactions met certain accounting criteria, the convertible note hedges were, and warrants are, recorded in stockholders’ equity and are not accounted for as derivatives. The net costs incurred in connection with the convertible note hedge and warrant transactions were recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

We recorded a deferred tax liability of $27.5 million in connection with the debt discount associated with the 2019 Notes and recorded a deferred tax asset of $28.6 million in connection with the convertible note hedge transactions. The deferred tax liability and deferred tax asset were recorded in deferred tax assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. There is no deferred tax asset or liability remaining as of August 3, 2019 due to the maturity of the 2019 Notes.

The Refer to Note 10—Credit Agreement has a revolving line of credit with initial availability of up to $600.0 million, of which $10.0 million is available to Restoration Hardware Canada, Inc., and includes a $200.0 million accordion feature under which the revolving line of credit may be expanded by agreement of the parties from $600.0 million to up to $800.0 million if and to the extent the lenders, whether existing lenders or new lenders, agree to increase their credit commitments. In addition, the Credit Agreement established an $80.0 million lastFacilities in last out (“LILO”) term loan facility which was repaid in full in June 2018. The Credit Agreement has a maturity date of June 28, 2022.

On June 12, 2018, Restoration Hardware, Inc. entered into a First Amendment to the Credit Agreement (the “First Amendment”). The First Amendment (i) changed the Credit Agreement’s definition of “Eligible In-Transit Inventory” to clarify the requirements to be fulfilled by the borrowers with respect to such in-transit inventory, and (ii) clarified that no default or event of default was caused by any prior non-compliance with such requirements with respect to in-transit inventory. Eligible In-Transit Inventory consists of inventory being shipped from vendor locations outside of the United States. Qualifying in-transit inventory is included within the borrowing base for eligible collateral for purposes of determining the amount of borrowing available to borrowers under the Credit Agreement.

The Third Amendment, among other things, (a) established a $120.0 million first in, last out (“FILO”) term loan facility, which amount was fully borrowed as of April 4, 2019 and which incurs interest at a rate that is 1.25% greater than the interest rate applicable to the revolving loans under the Credit Agreement, (b) provided for additional Permitted Indebtedness, as defined in the Credit Agreement, that the loan parties can incur, and (c) modified the borrowing availability under the Credit Agreement in certain circumstances. The FILO term loan facility has a maturity date of June 28, 2022.

The availability of credit at any given time under the Credit Agreement is limited by reference to a borrowing base formula based upon numerous factors, including the value of eligible inventory and eligible accounts receivable.

All obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of the assets, including accounts receivable, inventory, intangible assets, property, equipment, goods and fixtures of Restoration Hardware, Inc., Restoration Hardware Canada, Inc., RH US, LLC, Waterworks Operating Co., LLC and Waterworks IP Co., LLC.

Borrowings under the revolving line of credit are subject to interest, at the borrowers’ option, at either the bank’s reference rate or London Inter-bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) (or, in the case of the revolving line of credit, the Bank of America “BA” Rate or the Canadian Prime Rate, as such terms are defined in the Credit Agreement, for Canadian borrowings denominated in Canadian dollars or the United States Index Rate or LIBOR for Canadian borrowings denominated in United States dollars) plus an applicable margin rate, in each case.

In addition, under the Credit Agreement, we are required to meet specified financial ratios in order to undertake certain actions, and we may be required to maintain certain levels of excess availability or meet a specifiedour condensed consolidated fixed-charge coverage ratio (“FCCR”).

If the availability under the Credit Agreement is less than the foregoing amount, then Restoration Hardware, Inc. is required subject to certain exceptions to maintain an FCCR of at least one to one.

The 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) the availability under the revolving line of credit for extensions of credit is less than the greater of (A) $40.0 million and (B) 10% of the sum of (a) the lesser of (x) the aggregate revolving commitments under the credit agreement and (y) the aggregate revolving borrowing base, plus (b) the lesser of (x) the then outstanding amount of the LILO term loan or (y) the LILO term loan borrowing base.

Second Lien Credit Agreement

On April 10, 2019, Restoration Hardware, Inc., entered into a credit agreement, dated as of April 9, 2019 and effective as of April 10, 2019 (the “Second Lien Credit Agreement”), among (i) Restoration Hardware, Inc., as lead borrower, (ii) the guarantors party thereto, (iii) the lenders party thereto, each of whom are funds and accounts managed or advised by either Benefit Street Partners L.L.C. and its affiliated investment managers or Apollo Capital Management, L.P. and its affiliated investment managers, as applicable, and (iv) BSP Agency, LLC, as administrative agent and collateral agent (the “Second Lien Administrative Agent”) with respect to a second lien term loan in an aggregate principal amount equal to $200.0 million with a maturity date of April 9, 2024 (the “Second Lien Term Loan”).

The Second Lien Term Loan bears interest at an annual rate generally based on LIBOR plus 6.50%. This rate is a floating rate that resets periodically based upon changes in LIBOR rates during the life of the Second Lien Term Loan. At the date of the initial borrowing, the rate was set at one month LIBOR plus 6.50%.

All obligations under the Second Lien Term Loan are secured by a second lien security interest in substantially all of the assets of the loan parties, including inventory, receivables and certain types of intellectual property. The second lien security interest encumbers substantially the same collateral that secures the credit. The second lien ranks junior in priority and is subordinated to the first lien in favor of the lenders with respect to the Credit Agreement.

The borrowings under the Second Lien Credit Agreement may be prepaid in whole or in part at any time, subject to certain minimum payment requirements, and including (i) a prepayment premium in the amount of 2.0% of the

principal amount of the Second Lien Term Loan being prepaid during the first year after the effective date of the Second Lien Credit Agreement, (ii) 1.0% of the principal amount of the Second Lien Term Loan being prepaid during the second year after the effective date of the Second Lien Credit Agreement, and (iii) no prepayment premium after the second anniversary of the effective date of the Second Lien Credit Agreement.

The Second Lien Credit Agreement contains a financial ratio covenant not found in the Credit Agreement based upon a net senior secured leverage ratio of consolidated secured debt to consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the Credit Agreement, as follows:

The net senior secured leverage ratio test is based on the ratio of (i) the sum of (a) all obligations outstanding under the Second Lien Term Loan and the Credit Agreement plus (b) all other secured indebtedness of RH and certain of its subsidiaries that is (x) senior or pari passu to the lien on the Second Lien Term Loan collateral or (y) secured by property that does not constitute Second Lien Term Loan collateral under the Second Lien Term Loan, less (c) all unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of RH and certain of its subsidiaries subject to a blocked account control agreement, to (ii) consolidated EBITDA of RH and certain of its subsidiaries (the “Net Senior Secured Leverage Ratio”).
The Net Senior Secured Leverage Ratio may not exceed 3.50 to 1.00 as of the last day of any fiscal quarter. The Second Lien Credit Agreement also contains a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio generally based on the same formulation set forth in the Credit Agreement such that the borrower may not make certain “restricted payments” in the event that the ratio of (i) consolidated EBITDA minus certain costs to the amount of (ii) debt service costs plus certain other costs is not less than 1.00 to 1.00 and the level of unused availability under the Credit Agreement meets certain levels.

The Second Lien Credit Agreement also contains certain events of default and other customary terms and conditions typical to a second lien credit agreement.

On May 31, 2019, Restoration Hardware, Inc. entered into a first amendment to the Second Lien Credit Agreement (the “First Amendment”). The First Amendment, among other things, amends the Second Lien Credit Agreement to (a) remove the requirement to deliver monthly financial statements to the lenders for the last fiscal month of any fiscal quarter and (b) waive any default or event of default under the Second Lien Credit Agreement relating to the delivery of monthly financial statements or other information to lenders for the fiscal months ending February 2019 and March 2019.

As of August 3, 2019, the Company had $200.0 million in outstanding borrowings and no availability under the Second Lien Credit Agreement.

The Second Lien Credit Agreement contains various restrictive and affirmative covenants generally in line with the covenants and restrictions contained in the Credit Agreement, including required financial reporting, limitations on the ability to incur liens, make loans or other investments, incur additional debt, issue additional equity, merge or consolidate with or into another person, sell assets, pay dividends or make other distributions, or enter into transactions with affiliates, along with other restrictions and limitations typical to credit agreements of a similar type and size.

Equipment Loan Facility

On September 5, 2017, Restoration Hardware, Inc. entered into a Master Loan and Security Agreement with Banc of America Leasing & Capital, LLC (“BAL”) pursuantRefer to which BAL and we 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 termsNote 10—Credit Facilities in our condensed consolidated financial statements for each particular equipment loan. Eachfurther information on our equipment loan is secured by a purchase money security interest in the financed equipment.

The maturity dates of the equipment security notes vary, but generally have a maturity of three or four years. We are required to make monthly installment payments under the equipment security notes.facility.

Share Repurchase Programs

We regularly review share repurchase activity and consider various factors in determining whether and when to execute share repurchases, including, among others, current cash needs, capacity for leverage, cost of borrowings, results of operations and the market price of the our common stock. We believe that these share repurchase programs 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.

$300 Million Repurchase Program (Completed)

On February 21,We generated $330 million, $163 million and $415 million in free cash flow in fiscal 2019, fiscal 2018 and fiscal 2017, respectively, which supported our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase programprograms. Free cash flow is calculated as net cash provided by operating activities, the non-cash accretion of up to $300 million (the “$300 Million Repurchase Program”) through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or other means, including through Rule 10b18 open market repurchases, Rule 10b5-1 trading plans or throughdebt discount upon settlement of debt and proceeds from sale of assets, less capital expenditures and principal payments under finance leases. Free cash flow excludes all non-cash items. Free cash flow is included in this filing because management believes that free cash flow provides meaningful supplemental information for investors regarding the use of other techniques such as accelerated share repurchases. During the three months ended April 29, 2017, we repurchased approximately 7.8 million sharesperformance of our common stock under the $300 Million Repurchase Program at an average pricebusiness and facilitates a meaningful evaluation of $38.24 per share, for an aggregate repurchase amount of approximately $300 million. No additional shares will be repurchasedoperating results on a comparable basis with historical results.

$950 Million Share Repurchase Program (Existing)

On October 10, 2018, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program of up to $700 million through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or other means, including through Rule 10b18 open market repurchases, Rule 10b5-1 trading plans or through the use of other techniques such as 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, of which $250.0 million in share repurchases were completed in fiscal 2018. The $700 million authorization amount was replenished by the Board of Directors on March 25, 2019 (as replenished, the “$950 Million Repurchase Program”). In the first quarter of fiscal 2019, we repurchased approximately 2.2 million shares of our common stock under the $950 Million Repurchase Program at an average price of $115.36 per share, for an aggregate repurchase amount of approximately

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management 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. Management evaluates itsWe evaluate our accounting policies, estimates, and judgments on an on-going basis. Management bases itsWe 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.

Management evaluatedWe evaluate the development and selection of itsour critical accounting policies and estimates and believesbelieve that the followingcertain 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:

oFair Market Value

In the first quarter of fiscal 2019, we adopted Accounting Standards Update 2016-02—Leases. The adoption of this standard resulted in a material change to the “Lease Accounting” critical accounting policy in fiscal 2019. Please refer below for our updated “Lease Accounting” critical accounting policy. There have been no material changes to the other critical accounting policies and estimates listed above from the disclosures included in the 20182019 Form 10-K. For further discussion regarding these policies, refer to Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationsCritical Accounting Policies and Estimates in the 20182019 Form 10-K.

Lease Accounting

We lease nearly all of our retail and outlet store locations, corporate headquarters, distribution and home delivery facilities, as well as other storage and office space. The initial lease terms of our real estate leases generally range from ten to fifteen years, and certain leases contain renewal options for up to an additional 25 years, the exercise of which is at our sole discretion. In recognizing the lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, we utilize the lease term for which we are reasonably certain to use the underlying asset, including consideration of options to extend or terminate the lease. We also lease certain equipment with lease terms generally ranging from three to seven years. Our lease agreements generally do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictions or covenants.

Leases, or lease extensions, with a term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, and we recognize lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

6657

Table of Contents

We account for lease and non-lease components as a single lease component for real estate leases, and for all other asset classes we account for the components separately. We determine the lease classification and begin to recognize lease and any related financing expenses upon the lease’s commencement, which for real estate leases is generally upon store opening or, to a lesser extent, when we take possession or control of the asset.

As most of our leases do not include an implicit interest rate, we determine the discount rate for each lease based upon the incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”) in order to calculate the present value of lease payments at the commencement date. The IBR is computed as the rate of interest that we would have to pay to (i) borrow on a collateralized basis (ii) over a similar term (iii) an amount equal to the total lease payments and (iv) in a similar economic environment. We utilize our asset based credit facility as the basis for determining the applicable IBR for each lease.

Certain of our lease agreements include rental payments based on a percentage of retail sales over contractual levels. Due to the variable and unpredictable nature of such payments, we do not recognize a lease right-of-use asset and lease liability related to such payments. Estimated variable rental payments are included in accounts payable and accrued expenses on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

We have a small group of leases that include rental payments periodically adjusted for inflation (e.g., based on the consumer price index). We include these variable payments in the initial measurement of the lease right-of-use asset and lease liability if such increases have a minimum rent escalation (e.g., floor). However, we exclude these variable payments from the initial measurement of the lease right-of-use asset and lease liability in the case of lease arrangements that do not specify a minimum rent escalation.

We rent or sublease certain real estate to third parties under operating leases and recognize rental income received on a straight-line basis over the lease term, which is included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of income.

Lease arrangements may require the landlord to provide tenant allowances directly to us. Standard tenant allowances received from landlords, typically those received under operating lease agreements, are recorded as cash and cash equivalents with an offset recorded in lease right-of-use assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. In certain instances tenant allowances are provided for us to design and build the leased asset. Tenant allowances received from landlords during the construction phase of a leased asset and prior to lease commencement are recorded as cash and cash equivalents with an offset recorded in other non-current assets (to the extent we have incurred related capital expenditure for construction costs) or in other current liabilities (to the extent that payments are received prior to capital construction expenditures by us) on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. After the leased asset is constructed and the lease commences, we reclassify the tenant allowance from other non-current assets or other current liabilities to lease right-of-use assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Lease Classification

Certain of our real estate and property and equipment are held under finance leases. Lease related assets are included in finance lease right-of-use assets within property and equipment—net on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Leases that do not meet the definition of a finance lease are considered operating leases. Lease related assets are included in operating lease right-of-use assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Construction Related Activities

We are sometimes involved in the construction of leased stores for certain of our newer Design Galleries. Prior to construction commencement, we evaluate whether or not we, as lessee, control the asset being constructed and, depending on the extent to which we are involved, may be the “deemed owner” of the leased asset for accounting purposes during the construction period.

67

Table of Contents

If we are not the “deemed owner” for accounting purposes during the construction period, such lease is classified as either an operating or finance lease upon lease commencement. During the construction period and prior to lease commencement, any capital amounts contributed by us toward the construction of the leased asset (excluding normal leasehold improvements, which are recorded within property and equipment—net) are recorded as “Landlord assets under construction” within other non-current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets (refer to Note 3—Prepaid Expense and Other Assets). Upon completion of the construction project, and upon lease commencement, we reclassify amounts of the construction project determined to be the landlord asset to lease right-of-use assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The construction costs determined not to be part of the leased asset are classified as property and equipment—net on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

If we are the “deemed owner” for accounting purposes, upon commencement of the construction project, we are required to capitalize (i) costs incurred by us and (ii) the cash and non-cash assets contributed by the landlord for construction as property and equipment on its condensed consolidated balance sheets as build-to-suit assets, with an offsetting financing obligation for the amount funded by the landlord. The contributions by the landlord toward construction, including the building, existing site improvements at construction commencement and any amounts paid by the landlord to those responsible for construction, are included as property and equipment additions due to build-to-suit lease transactions within the non-cash section of the consolidated statements of cash flows. Over the lease term, these non-cash additions to property and equipment do not impact our cash outflows, nor do they impact net income within the consolidated statements of income.

Upon completion of the construction project, we perform a sale-leaseback analysis to determine if we can derecognize the build-to-suit asset and corresponding financing obligation. If the asset and liability cannot be derecognized, we account for the agreement as a debt-like arrangement.

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.

We are subject to interest rate risk in connection with borrowings under our revolving line of credit under the Credit Agreement which bears interest at variable rates and we may incur additional indebtedness that bears interest at variable rates. As of August 3, 2019, $145.01, 2020, $91.6 million was outstanding under the revolving line of credit. The 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 Credit Agreement as of August 3, 20191, 2020 was $254.6$259.2 million, net of $12.8$14.5 million in outstanding letters of credit. Based on the average interest rate on the revolving line of credit during the three months ended August 3, 2019,1, 2020, and to the extent that borrowings were outstanding on such line of credit, 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.

A number of our current debt agreements, including the Credit Agreement, have an interest rate tied to LIBOR, which is expected to be discontinued after 2021. A number of alternatives to LIBOR have been proposed or are being developed, but it is not clear which, if any, will be adopted. Any of these alternative methods 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.

As of August 3, 2019, we had $300 million principal amount of 0.00% convertible senior notes due1, 2020, outstanding (the “2020 Notes”). As this instrument does not bear interest, we do not have interest rate risk exposure related to this debt.

As of August 3, 2019, we had $335 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.

Impact of Inflation

Our results of operations and financial condition are presented based on historical cost. While it is difficult to accurately measure the 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.

PART II

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we and/or our management 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 management 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 regarding certain pending securities litigation, refer to Note 15—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 sectionsections entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 2, 1, 2020 (“2019 (“2018 Form 10-K”) and in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended May 2, 2020 (“First Quarter Form 10-Q”).

The risks described herein and those described in our 20182019 Form 10-K and in our First Quarter Form 10-Q 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 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. We have identified additional material changes to our risk factors set forth below.

We are undertaking a large numberRisks Related to Our Business

The COVID-19 pandemic poses significant and widespread risks to our business as well as to the business environment and the markets in which we operate.

The global outbreak of business initiatives at the same time, including exploring opportunities to expand into new categoriesnovel coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”) and complementary businesses. If these initiatives are not successful, they may have a negativeresulting health crisis had an immediate and widespread impact on our resultscustomers, our business environment, the economic climate in the U.S. and globally, and financial and consumer markets. The initial wave of operations.

We are undertaking a large number of newthe COVID-19 outbreak caused disruption to our business initiatives at the same time in order to support our future growth. For example,operations, as we have developed and continue to refine and enhance our Gallery format, which involves larger store square footage. We also continue to add new product categories and to expand product assortments. For example, in fiscal 2015 we launched our new RH Modern and RH Teen categories and in fiscal 2019 we are launching RH Beach House and RH Ski House. We are currently contemplating other new product lines and extensions. We introduced RH Hospitality in fiscal 2015 at RH Chicago, The Gallery at the Three Arts Club. As of August 3, 2019, sixtemporarily closed all of our RH Design Galleries include an integrated RH Hospitality experience and, basedretail locations on the success of our hospitality offering to date, we plan to incorporate an integrated RH Hospitality offering, including cafés, wine vaults, and barista bars,March 17, 2020 in many of the new Galleries that we open in the future. We continue to refine and develop the RH Hospitality model as we seek to optimize this part of our business and its integration with the operation of our Gallery locations. RH Hospitality is different from our traditional home furnishings business and involves evolving strategies that are untested and unproven and may expose us to a number of risks including risks relatedresponse to the management and execution of food and hospitality operations in various locations where we operate retail Galleries. Although we have experienced a number ofpublic health crisis.

Future adverse developments in connection with the COVID-19 crisis, including additional waves of COVID-19 outbreaks, evolving international, federal, state and local restrictions and safety regulations in response to COVID-19 risks, changes in consumer behavior and health concerns, the pace of economic activity in the wake of the COVID-19 crisis, or other complicationssimilar issues could adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition in the future, or our financial results and business performance for the fiscal year ending January 30, 2021.

Volatility in consumer demand and sentiment as the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve can also expose us to risks in our operations. In our immediate response to COVID-19, we aggressively scaled back some inventory orders while we assessed the status of our business. As our business has strengthened during the second fiscal quarter, the reduction in inventory receipts together with dislocations in our supply chain resulted in some delays in our ability to convert business demand into shipped sales. In addition, our near term decisions regarding the sources and uses of capital in our business will continue to reflect and adapt to changes in market conditions and our business related to the impact of COVID-19. The global scale and scope of COVID-19 is unknown and the duration of the business disruption is uncertain. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts our business will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain, including developing information concerning the severity of COVID-19 and the actions taken by governments and private businesses to attempt to contain COVID-19.

We may face operational restrictions with respect to some or all of our physical locations for prolonged periods of time due to, among other factors, evolving international, federal, state and local restrictions, standards and safety regulations including recommendations related to “social distancing.” Public health officials and other governmental authorities have adopted numerous mitigation measures to address the spread of the virus, and in particular to discourage people from congregating in public, commercial or private spaces. Federal, state and local authorities in the U.S. and Canada have implemented a number of different directives that may require changes in our business practices. The scope and duration of these directives is evolving and not entirely clear. In response to future COVID-19 outbreaks or other concerns, states and municipalities in the U.S. where we operate may implement or reinstate temporary closure requirements with respect to non-essential business operations and the duration of these requirements is unknown. Governmental restrictions applicable to our restaurants have different terms and conditions than those that apply to our Galleries. For example, in most of our retail locations that have reopened, substantial operational restrictions related to COVID-19 health and safety considerations, such as limits to seating capacity, have been imposed on our hospitality business by various governmental authorities. Such operational restrictions may cause our hospitality offerings to be less attractive to customers or may lower its margins and profitability. Many of our Galleries are located in malls or otherwise located in proximity to a number of other retail stores. Mall operators and other retailers have imposed, and may continue to impose, additional health and safety practices and procedures and may in the future elect to temporarily cease operations in response to renewed or localized outbreaks.

In addition, new regulation or requirements that governmental authorities may impose with respect to the compensation of our employees or the manner or location in which our employees may work could also have an adverse effect on our business. ThereAt various times since the beginning of the pandemic, substantially all of our management personnel, including those in our corporate office in Corte Madera, CA, have been subject to state and local shelter-in-place requirements, which have varied over time and which have resulted in most of our management team being required to work remotely. These working arrangements as well as other related restrictions including severe limitations on travel may have an impact on our operations and management effectiveness. Although we have technology and other resources to support these new work requirements, there can be no assurance that we will successfully scale RH Hospitality, that we will optimally balance the resources and square footage allocatednot suffer material risks to our hospitality offerings versus our product offerings at our Galleries, or that our hospitality offerings will be attractive to consumers in our market over a sustained period of time. 

We have also embarked on an initiative to expand our product sales to international markets and are currently exploring opportunities for Design Galleries in several locations outside the United States, including the United Kingdom and Europe. International expansion would expose us to new risks, including, but not limited to, risks related to currency fluctuation, supply chain and product sourcing, international economic or political events including but not limited to the U.K.’s impending withdrawal from the European Union, commonly referred to as “Brexit,” that may negatively impact the luxury market, and new regulatory regimes applicable to our products, Galleries and employees. We may be unsuccessful in adapting ourbusiness, operations, to address such risks. We also may be unsuccessful in accurately selecting which international markets would support demand for our products or sizing our Gallery openings to such markets. If we are not successful in managing the large number of new initiatives that are underway, we might experience an adverse impact on our financial conditionproductivity and results of operations.

Furthermore, we can provide no assurances that customers will respond favorably to our new product offerings, Galleries or complementary businesses or that we will successfully execute on such business initiatives. Such new business opportunities may not achieve market acceptance or may only achieve market acceptance in limited geographic areas or at certain Design Galleries. In addition, developing and testing new and multiple business opportunities and strategies often requires knowledge in areas of expertise that may be new to our organization and may require significant time of our management and resources. For example, RH Hospitality extended our business into an area where we have had limited historical operating and management experience and where low margins and high customer expectations can put pressure on results and performance. Expanding our business internationally will also require that we develop management expertise in new markets and regulatory regimes, and an inability to adapt our business quickly and efficiently to support our international expansion could materially adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. We can provide no assurances that we will be successful in expanding our operations into any new businesses and product lines.

Any new businesses we enter may also expose us to additional laws, regulations and risks, including the risk that we may incur ongoing operating expenses in such businesses in excess of revenues, which could harm our financial condition and results of operations. The financial profile of any such new businesses may be different than our current financial profile, which could affect our financial performance and the market price for our common stock. For example, RH Hospitality may expose us to new risks related to consumer litigation and longer lease terms. 

We often have in the past, and may in the future, incur significant costs for any new initiative before we realize any corresponding revenue with respect to such initiative. In addition, we may incur costs as we revise, restructure or discontinue existing product categories or business offerings in favor of pursuing new initiatives or retail concepts. For example, as we continue to open larger format Design Galleries in select major metropolitan markets, we expect to close a number of legacy Galleries and replace them with our Design Gallery format. The introduction of an integrated hospitality experience, including roll out of an integrated food and beverage experience at a new Gallery location often requires significant investments by us before the location is open to customers and able to generate revenues, and we anticipate that a number of Galleries to be opened during the next several years will continue to require this form of upfront investment before they generate revenue from the food and beverage offerings. In addition, during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016, we initiated and executed a plan to integrate the RH Contemporary Art (“RHCA”) product line into the broader RH platform and we no longer operate RHCA as a separate division, and as a result we incurred restructuring related costs. To the extent that these new business opportunities do not generate sufficient revenue to recoup the cost of developing and operating such new concepts, our results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

In addition, we are continuing a number of new initiatives to improve the operations of our business, including ongoing refinements to our management structure and organizational design. Some of the improvements we are pursuing include changing the ways we source and deliver our products to our customers, as well as streamlining and realigning the management structure in our home office operations. We have also focused on elevating the customer experience,

which includes improving our distribution and delivery of products to our customers and architecting a new fully integrated back-end operating platform, inclusive of the supply chain network, the home delivery experience as well as a new metric-driven quality system and company-wide decision data. We have focused on rationalizing our SKU count and optimizing inventory, which includes selling slower moving, discontinued and other inventory through markdowns and our outlet channel, as well as enhancing and optimizing our product sourcing capabilities and adding new management information systems. We also transitioned from a promotional to a membership model, in the early part of fiscal 2016, by introducing the RH Members Program, which provides a range of benefits to our customers in return for payment of an annual membership fee. We introduced the RH Members Program as an alternative to prior practices involving numerous event-driven promotional programs. Although we are extremely satisfied with the results of the RH Members Program to date, this program is still new to our business, and there can be no certainty as to exactly how our customers may react to this program over time or how the RH Members Program will affect our financial results from quarter to quarter.

Given the large number of organizational initiatives we are pursuing, as well as the complexity and untested nature of many of these efforts, there can be no certainty that we will be successful in executing on these initiatives including changes to our organizational design and management structure. We may not experience the operational or financial benefits we expect these improvements to generate and we may face unanticipated costs related to pursuing these initiatives such as personnel turnover, management distraction, or compliance and quality control risks, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

All of the foregoing risks may be compounded due to various factors including any economic downturn. If we fail to achieve the intended results of our current business initiatives, or if the implementation of these initiatives is delayed or abandoned, diverts management’s attention or resources from other aspects of our business or costs more than anticipated (including, as a result of personnel turnoverthese restrictions. If a significant percentage of our workforce is unable to work, including because of illness or compliance and control risks), wetravel or government restrictions in connection with COVID-19, our operations may experience inadequate return on investment for some or all suchbe negatively impacted, potentially materially adversely affecting our business, initiatives, which could have a material adverse effect on ourliquidity, financial condition or results of operations.

We are subject to risks associated with our dependence on foreign manufacturing and imports for our merchandise.

Based on total dollar volume of purchases, in fiscal 2018 we sourced approximately 85% of our merchandise from outside the United States, including 73% from Asia, with approximately 39% of our products sourced from China and approximately 3% of our products sourced from Mexico, and in fiscal 2017 we sourced approximately 85% of our merchandise from outside the United States, including 76% from Asia, with approximately 42% of our products sourced from China and approximately 3% of our products sourced from Mexico. We expect the amount of products that we source from China will be lower in fiscal 2019 compared to fiscal 2018, but the exact product mix in terms of vendor factory locations is subject to a range of different factors and is inherently difficult to predict with accuracy. In addition, some of the merchandise we purchase from vendors in the United States also depends, in whole or in part, on vendors located outside the United States. As a result, our business highly depends on global trade, as well as any trade and or other factors that impact the specific countries where our vendors’ production facilities are located. Our future success will depend in large part upon our ability to maintain our existing foreign vendor relationships and to develop new ones based on the requirements of our business and any changes in trade dynamics that might dictate changes in the locations for sourcing of products. In addition, we face risks related to the ability of our vendors to scale their operations whether in connection with new products we introduce or new production manufacturing locations that may be added to our supply chain, which in some cases would require substantial ongoing investments to support additional capacity. In addition, we have previously encountered difficulties in the ability of our vendors to scale production commensurate with demand from our customers. While we rely on long-term relationships with many of our vendors, we do not rely on long-term contracts with our vendors and generally transact business with them on an order-by-order basis.

Many of our imported products are subject to existing duties, tariffs, anti-dumping duties and other similar trade restrictions that may limit the quantity or affect the price of some types of goods that we import into the United States. In addition, substantial regulatory uncertainty exists regarding international trade relations and trade policy, both in the United States and abroad. An introduction of new duties, tariffs, quotas or other similar trade restrictions, or increases in existing duties or tariff rates, on products imported into the United States, whether actual, pending or threatened, may have a negative impact on our results of operations. Significant uncertainty exists as to whether and when tariffs may be

73

Table of Contents

imposed, and what countries may be implicated. For example, proposed tariffs on goods imported from Mexico have been introduced and subsequently withdrawn by the U.S. government. Additionally, such uncertainties, even if not directly applicable to our imported products, may have a negative influence on the domestic and international economy generally and indirectly reduce market demand for our products.

A significant subset of our products sourced from China has been affected by increased levels of tariffs that were imposed in 2018 and 2019. The initial round of these increased tariffs became effective on certain products that we source from China including furniture and lighting initially as a 10 percent ad valorem duty on September 24, 2018, which amount increased to 25 percent on May 10, 2019, and is expected to increase further to 30 percent on October 1, 2019. On August 1, 2019, President Trump announced a new 10 percent ad valorem duty on additional categories of goods imported from China, which amount was then increased to 15 percent on August 23, 2019. The new tariff at the rate of 15 percent became effective September 1, 2019 with respect to certain categories of goods and is expected to become effective for additional categories of goods on December 15, 2019.

While we have been working with our vendor partners on mitigation strategies to seek to address the impact of the tariffs on goods imported from China, such efforts may not be fully sufficient to remediate the impact of the existing ad valorem duty on certain products imported from China or the future ad valorem duties to be imposed on products from China. In addition, such mitigation efforts may not be successful with respect to other pending or future increases in tariffs. There is substantial uncertainty regarding the possible application of additional tariffs with respect to China, or the possible imposition of tariffs on trade with additional countries other than China. We may not be able to anticipate the exact contours of tariffs and other burdens on global trade that may become applicable and our efforts to respond to these circumstances may be inadequate. In particular, we may not be able to receive or sustain adequate pricing concessions from our vendors with respect to applicable tariffs and any applicable pricing increases that we seek to pass through to our customers may not be successful in achieving our objectives. Our sales may fall in response to any price increases and our vendors may not be able to support the level of pricing concessions that we seek.

In addition, we are undertaking ongoing efforts to examine our sourcing strategy in a comprehensive way in order to achieve the best possible outcomes for our business. Such efforts include addressing among other factors the country of origin and the current and potential future imposition of tariffs with respect to particular countries of origin. These efforts to optimize our supply chain may not be successful and we may encounter various obstacles to these and other related initiatives. Although we have moved some of our merchandise sourcing away from China to other countries, these efforts may not achieve the desired outcomes. For example, we may not be able to move sufficient quantities of our product manufacturing to new locations outside of China and the quality of products manufactured in new factories may not meet the requirements of our business. In addition, we may encounter logistics and other challenges in moving manufacturing to new jurisdictions including the potential imposition of new tariffs on products sourced from such other jurisdictions.

In addition, there can be no assurance that tariffs that are imposed or proposed will not become effective on a longer term basis. In the event that any tariffs applicable to our business become applicable on a longer term basis, there can be no assurance that our efforts to mitigate the impact of such longer term tariffs will be successful.

There can be no assurance that we will not experience disruption in our business related to tariffs or other changes in trade practices and applicable rules or as a result of our efforts to respond to these matters. Tariffs and other similar trade actions are inherently unpredictable and can change quickly based on political or economic pressures or policy changes. Any changes to tariffs or other rules and practices related to cross border trade, including the possible implementation of additional tariffs, could materially increase our cost of goods sold with respect to merchandise that we purchase from vendors who manufacture products in China or other countries outside the United States, which could in turn require us to increase our prices and, in the event consumer demand declines as a result, negatively impact our financial performance. While we may seek to adopt mitigation measures and changes to our business practices to seek to counteract the effect of such tariffs on our business and results of operations, due to multiple factors that can occur in the context of trade disputes and the inherent unpredictability of how customers and market participants may respond, any mitigation measures we adopt may be not achieve their intended purpose. Certain of our competitors may be better positioned than us to withstand or react to these kinds of changes including border taxes, tariffs or other restrictions on global trade and as a result we may lose market share to such competitors. In addition, to the extent that our competitors, our vendors or companies in other industries that manufacture products in China respond to the tariffs imposed to date or the possibility of future tariffs by shifting production to other countries in Asia or to other regions, the costs of

74

Table of Contents

production in such countries may increase, which may increase our costs or otherwise have an adverse impact on our product supply chain. Similarly, to the extent that we or our vendors respond to the tariffs imposed to date or the possibility of future tariffs by shifting merchandise purchases or production to other countries in Asia or to other regions, we may face delays or costs associated with developing new vendor relationships and our vendors may face delays or costs associated with bringing online new manufacturing facilities, which may increase the cost of our products or cause delays in the shipment of our merchandise that result in the cancellation of orders by our customers. An interruption or delay in supply from our foreign sources, or the imposition of additional duties, taxes or other charges on these imports, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations unless and until alternative supply arrangements are secured. Due to broad uncertainty regarding the timing, content and extent of any regulatory changes in the U.S. or abroad, we cannot predict the impact, if any, that these changes could have to our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our dependence on foreign imports also makes us vulnerable to risks associated with products manufactured abroad, including, among other things, risks of damage, destruction or confiscation of products while in transit to our distribution centers located in the United States, product quality control charges on or assessment of additional import duties, tariffs, anti-dumping duties and quotas, loss of “most favored nation” trading status by our foreign trading partners with the United States, work stoppages, including without limitation as a result of events such as longshoremen strikes, transportation and other delays in shipments, including without limitation as a result of heightened security screening and inspection processes or other port-of-entry limitations or restrictions in the United States, freight cost increases, political unrest, economic uncertainties, including inflation, foreign government regulations, trade restrictions, increased labor costs and other similar factors that might affect the operations of our vendors in specific countries such as China.

In addition, there is a risk of compliance violations by our vendors, which could lead to adverse consequences related to the failure of our vendors to adhere to applicable manufacturing requirements or other applicable rules or government regulations. Any such noncompliance could have an adverse impact on our business and may result in product recalls, regulatory action, product liabilities, investigation by governmental agencies and other similar adverse consequences. Any failure by our vendors outside the United States to adhere to applicable legal requirements or our global compliance standards such as fair labor standards, prohibitions on child labor and other product safety or manufacturing safety standards could give rise to a range of adverse consequences including the disruption of our supply chain as well as potential liability to us and harm our reputation and brand and could subject us to other adverse consequences including boycotts by our consumer or special interest groups including activists, any of which actions could negatively affect our business and results of operations.

Changes to accounting rules or regulations may adversely affect our results of operations.

New accounting rules or regulations and varying interpretations of existing accounting rules or regulations have occurred and may occur in the future. It is difficult to predict the impact of future changes to accounting principles or current accounting practice and the exact impact of such changes may not be what we anticipate. A change in accounting rules or regulations may even affect our reporting of transactions completed before the change is effective and future changes to accounting rules or regulations or the questioning of current accounting practices may adversely affect our results of operations. For example, we adopted Accounting Standards Update 2014-09—Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) in the first quarter of fiscal 2018, the adoption of which materially impacted the timing of recognizing advertising expense related to direct response advertising, including costs associated with our Source Books. In addition, we adopted Accounting Standards Update 2016-02—Leases (Topic 842) in the first quarter of fiscal 2019, the adoption of which materially impacted our financial statements including (i) our consolidated balance sheets due to the initial recognition of right of use assets and lease liabilities for our operating and finance lease arrangements, (ii) our consolidated statements of income, specifically cost of goods sold and interest expense—net, primarily due to the change from the build-to-suit lease transactions under the previous accounting guidance to the new finance lease classification treatment, and (iii) our cash flows due to amortization and interest expense for our operating and finance lease arrangements and classification of landlord assets under construction. For information regarding recently issued accounting pronouncements, refer to Note 2—Recently Issued Accounting Standards in our condensed consolidated financial statements within Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

The adoptionCOVID-19 outbreak may continue to have an adverse impact on elements of our supply chain including the manufacture, supply, distribution, transportation and applicationdelivery of new accounting standards can expose us to certain risks similar to the risks we faceour products and our inventory levels. There have been substantial disruptions that have already occurred with respect to the global supply chain as a result of the COVID-19 health crisis. Our business depends on the successful operation of a global supply chain. Based on total dollar volume of purchases for fiscal 2019, approximately 70% of our abilityproducts were sourced from Asia (including a substantial portion from China), 16% from the United States and the remainder from other countries and regions. Although China was at the center of the initial outbreak of the COVID-19, the health crisis has spread to maintain effective internal controlsnumerous other countries throughout the world. The presence of the virus and the response to the health crisis in various countries is likely to have a continuing impact on our supply chain, for example by affecting the speed at which the factories that manufacture our products are able to resume normal operations and production levels after initial or subsequent waves of closures, and the extent that the health crisis may abate in particular countries such as China is uncertain.

Given the pace at which business conditions are evolving in response to the COVID-19 health crisis, we may further adjust our investments in various business initiatives including our capital expenditures over the course of fiscal 2020. If we are not able to access capital at the time and on terms that our business requires, we may encounter difficulty funding our business requirements including debt repayments when due. We may not be able to access liquidity or the terms and conditions of available credit may be substantially more expensive than previously expected due to changes in financial reportingconditions and any failurecredit markets. We may require waivers or amendments to our existing credit facilities and these requirements may trigger pricing increases from lenders for available credit. If we are not able to access credit to fund our business requirements for liquidity, or the cost of available credit increases, we may need to curtail our business operations including various business initiatives that require capital investment. We have recently commenced an effort to expand our business internationally by establishing a new retail presence in global markets including Europe and the United Kingdom. The impact of COVID-19 abroad, including travel restrictions imposed by various countries, may affect certain aspects of our planned international expansion. In addition, we are in the process of developing a number of new Gallery locations in the U.S. Counterparties with respect to some of our Gallery development projects may experience capital or liquidity constraints due to COVID-19 related difficulties, which may impact the timing or scope of some of our development projects. In addition, our RH Guesthouse initiative may be negatively impacted by the disease outbreak as international, federal, state and local governments have restricted travel, conferences, events and gatherings. Any reductions in our adoption liquidity position and the need to use capital for other day-to-day requirements of our business could affect a number of our business initiatives and long-term investments and as a result we may be required to curtail and/or applicationpostpone business investments including those related to international expansion, the pace of opening new accounting rulesGalleries in the U.S. as well as other initiatives that require capital investment.

Our business also depends on a number of third parties including vendors, landlords, lenders and other suppliers. One or more of these third parties may experience financial distress, staffing shortages or liquidity challenges, file for bankruptcy protection, go out of business, or suffer disruptions in their business due to the maintenanceCOVID-19 outbreak. The health crisis, resulting deterioration in financial markets and overall economic conditions could have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of effective internal controls overthird parties that are essential to our business operations and we may incur losses and other negative impacts for difficulties experienced by our vendors and other third parties.

The magnitude and duration of the negative impact to general economic and market conditions from the COVID-19 pandemic cannot be predicted with certainty, and there can be no assurance that the pace of economic activity in the wake of COVID-19 outbreaks will not have a negative impact on our business. The COVID-19 pandemic and mitigation measures have had an adverse impact on global economic conditions as well as the business climate in our primary consumer markets in the U.S. and Canada. Our business also depends to some extent on conditions in financial reporting or disclosure controls could expose us to material risksmarkets. We have determined that our customer purchasing patterns are influenced by economic factors including the inabilityhealth and volatility of the stock market. We have seen that previous downturns in the stock market have been correlated with a reduction in consumer demands for our products. The timing, magnitude and duration of disruptions of financial markets and weakening of overall economic conditions as a result of COVID-19 is unknown, and the precise impact of such trends on our business is also unknown. Uncertainties regarding the economic impact of COVID-19 have resulted in, and are likely to accurately report our financial informationcontinue to result in, sustained impact on the economy. Our business is particularly sensitive to reductions in discretionary consumer spending, which may be adversely impacted by a recession or fears of a recession, volatility and results of operationdeclines in a timely manner. Our results of operations could be materially adversely affected by thesethe stock market and similiar risks including,increasingly pessimistic consumer sentiment due to the extent we experience any increases in costsperceived or diversions in managerial actual economic and/or personnel resources in order to adopt new accounting rules or regulations or to adopt and maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting or disclosure controls.health risks.
