NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Dillard’s, Inc. (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine months ended October 29, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending January 28, 2023 due to, among other factors, the seasonal nature of the business.

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2022 filed with the SEC on March 29, 2022.

During the fiscal quarter ended July 30, 2022, the Company began purchasing short-term investments. Short-term investments are securities with original maturities of greater than three months but less than twelve months and are comprised of U.S. Treasury Bills. The Company determines the classification of these securities as trading, available for sale or held to maturity at the time of purchase and re-evaluates these determinations at each balance sheet date. Our short-term investments are classified as held-to-maturity for the period presented as we have the positive intent and ability to hold these investments to maturity. Our held-to-maturity investments are stated at amortized cost, which approximated fair value, and are periodically assessed for other-than-temporary impairment.

Note 2. Accounting Standards

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Except as noted below, the Company has considered all recent accounting pronouncements and Management believes there is no accounting guidance issued but not yet effective that would be relevant to the Company’s current condensed consolidated financial statements.

Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations

In September 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued accounting standards update ("ASU") No. 2022-04, Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations. The ASU is intended to enhance the transparency of the use of supplier finance programs by requiring that the buyers in those programs provide additional disclosures about the program’s nature and potential magnitude, including a rollforward of the obligations and activity during the period. The ASU is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2022, except for the amendment on rollforward information, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. The amendments in the update should be applied retrospectively, except for the amendment on rollforward information, which should be applied prospectively. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this ASU on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note 3. Business Segments

The Company operates in two reportable segments: the operation of retail department stores (“retail operations”) and a general contracting construction company (“construction”).

For the Company’s retail operations, the Company determined its operating segments on a store by store basis. Each store’s operating performance has been aggregated into one reportable segment. The Company’s operating segments are

Table of Contents

aggregated for financial reporting purposes because they are similar in each of the following areas: economic characteristics, class of consumer, nature of products and distribution methods. Revenues from external customers are derived from merchandise sales, and the Company does not rely on any major customers as a source of revenue. Across all stores, the Company operates one store format under the Dillard’s name where each store offers the same general mix of merchandise with similar categories and similar customers. The Company believes that disaggregating its operating segments would not provide meaningful additional information.

The following table summarizes the percentage of net sales by segment and major product line:

The loyalty program liability and a portion of the gift card liability is included in trade accounts payable and accrued expenses, and a portion of the gift card liability is included in other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Our retail operations segment contract liabilities are as follows:

Table of Contents

Note 6. Benefit Plans

The Company has an unfunded, nonqualified defined benefit plan (“Pension Plan”) for its officers. The Pension Plan is noncontributory and provides benefits based on years of service and compensation during employment. The Company determines pension expense using an actuarial cost method to estimate the total benefits ultimately payable to officers and allocates this cost to service periods. The actuarial assumptions used to calculate pension costs are reviewed annually. The Company contributed $1.5 million and $4.6 million to the Pension Plan during the three and nine months ended October 29, 2022, respectively, and expects to make additional contributions to the Pension Plan of approximately $1.7 million during the remainder of fiscal 2022.

The components of net periodic benefit costs are as follows (in thousands):

The service cost component of net periodic benefit costs is included in selling, general and administrative expenses, and the interest cost and net actuarial loss components are included in other expense.

Note 7. Revolving Credit Agreement

The Company maintains a credit facility (“credit agreement”) for general corporate purposes including, among other uses, working capital financing, the issuance of letters of credit, capital expenditures and, subject to certain restrictions, the repayment of existing indebtedness and share repurchases. The credit agreement provides a borrowing capacity of $800 million, subject to certain limitations as outlined in the credit agreement, with a $200 million expansion option.

In April 2021, the Company amended the credit agreement (the "2021 amendment"). Pursuant to the 2021 amendment, the Company pays a variable rate of interest on borrowings under the credit agreement and a commitment fee to the participating banks. The rate of interest on borrowings is LIBOR plus 1.75% if average quarterly availability is less than 50% of the total commitment, as defined in the 2021 amended credit agreement ("total commitment"), and the rate of interest on borrowings is LIBOR plus 1.50% if average quarterly availability is greater than or equal to 50% of the total commitment. The commitment fee for unused borrowings is 0.30% per annum if average borrowings are less than 35% of the total commitment and 0.25% if average borrowings are greater than or equal to 35% of the total commitment. As long as availability exceeds $80 million and certain events of default have not occurred and are not continuing, there are no financial covenant requirements under the credit agreement. The credit agreement, as amended by the 2021 amendment, matures on April 28, 2026.

At October 29, 2022, no borrowings were outstanding, and letters of credit totaling $19.3 million were issued under the credit agreement leaving unutilized availability under the facility of $780.7 million.

Note 8. Stock Repurchase Programs

In March 2018, the Company announced that its Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program authorizing the Company to repurchase up to $500 million of its Class A Common Stock ("March 2018 Stock Plan"). In May 2021, the Company announced that its Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program authorizing the Company to repurchase up to $500 million of its Class A Common Stock ("May 2021 Stock Plan"). In February 2022, the Company announced that its Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program authorizing the Company to repurchase up to $500 million of its Class A Common Stock under an open-ended plan (“February 2022 Stock Plan”).

Table of Contents

The February 2022 Stock Plan permits the Company to repurchase its Class A Common Stock in the open market, pursuant to preset trading plans meeting the requirements of Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or through privately negotiated transactions.

The following is a summary of share repurchase activity for the periods indicated (in thousands, except per share data):


	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended
	October 29,		October 30,		October 29,		October 30,
	2022		2021		2022		2021

As of October 29, 2022, the Company had completed the authorized purchases under the March 2018 Stock Plan and the May 2021 Stock Plan, and $175.4 million of authorization remained under the February 2022 Stock Plan.

Note 9. Income Taxes

During the three and nine months ended October 29, 2022 and October 30, 2021, income tax expense differed from what would be computed using the statutory federal income tax rate primarily due to the effects of state and local income taxes.

Note 10. Gain on Disposal of Assets

During the nine months ended October 29, 2022, the Company recorded proceeds of $8.1 million primarily from the sale of one store property, resulting in a gain of $7.2 million that was recorded in gain on disposal of assets.

During the nine months ended October 30, 2021, the Company recorded proceeds of $29.3 million primarily from the sale of three store properties, resulting in a gain of $24.7 million that was recorded in gain on disposal of assets.

Note 11. Fair Value Disclosures

The estimated fair values of financial instruments presented herein have been determined by the Company using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. However, considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of amounts the Company could realize in a current market exchange.

The fair value of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable approximates their carrying values at October 29, 2022 due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. The Company’s short-term investments are recorded at amortized cost, which is consistent with the Company’s held-to-maturity classification. The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt at October 29, 2022 was approximately $370 million. The carrying value of the Company’s long-term debt at October 29, 2022 was $366.1 million. The fair value of the Company’s subordinated debentures at October 29, 2022 was approximately $205 million. The carrying value of the Company’s subordinated debentures at October 29, 2022 was $200 million.

The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt and subordinated debentures is based on market prices and is categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.

Note 12. Subsequent Event

On November 17, 2022, the Company announced that its Board of Directors declared a special dividend of $15.00 per share. The dividend is payable on the Class A and Class B Common Stock of the Company on January 9, 2023 to shareholders of record as of December 15, 2022.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and the footnotes thereto included elsewhere in this report, as well as the financial and other information included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 29, 2022.

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

Excluding the unprecedented performance for the three months ended October 30, 2021, the Company’s results for the three months ended October 29, 2022 were notably better than historical third quarter performances.

Comparable retail store sales increased 3% for the three months ended October 29, 2022 compared to the prior year third quarter. Retail gross margin declined 100 basis point of sales to 45.7% compared to the prior year record high third quarter gross margin of 46.7%, marking the Company’s seventh consecutive quarter of gross margin exceeding 40%. The Company continued its efforts to control inventory during the quarter. Inventory increased 8% at October 29, 2022 compared to October 30, 2021, primarily as a result of rising inflation throughout the Company’s supply chain.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for the three months ended October 29, 2022 increased to $413.8 million (26.8% of sales) compared to $393.2 million (26.5% of sales) for the prior year third quarter. The increase in SG&A expenses is primarily due to increased payroll and payroll-related expenses in the current highly competitive wage environment which began in 2021 and has continued throughout 2022.

For the three months ended October 29, 2022, the Company reported net income of $187.9 million ($10.96 per share) compared to net income of $197.3 million ($9.81 per share) for the prior year third quarter.

Cash flows provided by operating activities were $558.4 million for the nine months ended October 29, 2022. The Company repurchased approximately 99,000 shares of its outstanding Class A Common Stock for $24.3 million under its stock repurchase plan during the three months ended October 29, 2022. The Company repurchased approximately 1.7 million shares of its outstanding Class A Common Stock for $436.6 million under its stock repurchase plans during the nine months ended October 29, 2022. At October 29, 2022, $175.4 million of authorization remained under the Company’s open stock repurchase plan.

As of October 29, 2022, the Company had working capital of $1,159.2 million (including cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments of $532.7 million and $198.0 million, respectively) and $566.1 million of total debt outstanding, excluding operating lease liabilities, and including one scheduled debt maturity of $44.8 million at the end of fiscal 2022.

The Company maintained 277 Dillard’s stores, including 28 clearance centers, and an internet store as of October 29, 2022.

At present, a number of economic and geopolitical factors are affecting the U.S. and world economies (including countries from which we source some of our merchandise): fluctuating gas prices (in part due to the war in Ukraine and the resulting sanctions imposed on Russia by the U.S. and other countries), inflation and interest rate increases, uncertainty around shipping costs and shipping capacity, U.S. port slowdowns, increasing U.S. wages in a tight labor market as well as some continuing effects from the COVID-19 pandemic. The extent to which our business will be affected by these factors depends on our customer’s ability and willingness to accept price increases and our ability to receive merchandise timely. Accordingly, the related financial impact to fiscal 2022 from these factors cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.

General

Net sales. Net sales includes merchandise sales of comparable and non-comparable stores and revenue recognized on contracts of CDI Contractors, LLC (“CDI”), the Company’s general contracting construction company. Comparable store sales includes sales for those stores which were in operation for a full period in both the most recently completed quarter and the corresponding quarter for the prior fiscal year, including our internet store. Comparable store sales excludes changes in the allowance for sales returns. Non-comparable store sales includes: sales in the current fiscal year from stores opened during the previous fiscal year before they are considered comparable stores; sales from new stores opened during the current fiscal year; sales in the previous fiscal year for stores closed during the current or previous fiscal year that are no longer considered comparable stores; sales in clearance centers; and changes in the allowance for sales returns.

Sales occur as a result of interaction with customers across multiple points of contact, creating an interdependence between in-store and online sales. Online orders are fulfilled from both fulfillment centers and retail stores. Additionally, online customers have the ability to buy online and pick up in-store. Retail in-store customers have the ability to purchase items that may be ordered and fulfilled from either a fulfillment center or another retail store location. Online customers may return orders via mail, or customers may return orders placed online to retail store locations. Customers who earn reward points under the private label credit card program may earn and redeem rewards through in-store or online purchases.

Service charges and other income. Service charges and other income includes income generated through the long-term marketing and servicing alliance with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (“Wells Fargo Alliance”). Other income includes rental income, shipping and handling fees and gift card breakage.

Cost of sales. Cost of sales includes the cost of merchandise sold (net of purchase discounts, non-specific margin maintenance allowances and merchandise margin maintenance allowances), bankcard fees, freight to the distribution centers, employee and promotional discounts, shipping to customers and direct payroll for salon personnel. Cost of sales also includes CDI contract costs, which comprise all direct material and labor costs, subcontract costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, employee benefits and insurance program costs.

Table of Contents

Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses include buying, occupancy, selling, distribution, warehousing, store and corporate expenses (including payroll and employee benefits), insurance, employment taxes, advertising, management information systems, legal and other corporate level expenses. Buying expenses consist of payroll, employee benefits and travel for design, buying and merchandising personnel.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expenses include depreciation and amortization on property and equipment.

Rentals. Rentals includes expenses for store leases, including contingent rent, data processing and other equipment rentals and office space leases.

Interest and debt expense, net. Interest and debt expense includes interest, net of interest income from demand deposits and short-term investments and capitalized interest, relating to the Company’s unsecured notes, subordinated debentures and commitment fees and borrowings, if any, under the Company’s credit agreement. Interest and debt expense also includes the amortization of financing costs and interest on finance lease obligations.

Other expense. Other expense includes the interest cost and net actuarial loss components of net periodic benefit costs related to the Company’s unfunded, nonqualified defined benefit plan and charges related to the write off of certain deferred financing fees in connection with the amendment and extension of the Company's secured revolving credit facility, if any.

Gain on disposal of assets. Gain on disposal of assets includes the net gain or loss on the sale or disposal of property and equipment, as well as gains from insurance proceeds in excess of the cost basis of insured assets, if any.

LIBOR

On March 5, 2021, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR, announced that all LIBOR settings will either cease to be provided by any administrator or no longer be representative: (a) immediately after December 31, 2021, in the case of the 1-week and 2-month U.S. dollar settings; and (b) immediately after June 30, 2023, in the case of the remaining U.S. dollar settings. The 2021 amendment to our credit agreement included an approach to replace LIBOR with a SOFR-based rate. We have not yet transitioned to a SOFR-based rate and will continue to monitor, assess and plan for the replacement of LIBOR with an alternative rate. We also intend to work with the Wells Fargo Alliance and any other applicable agreements to determine a suitable alternative reference rate.

Seasonality

Our business, like many other retailers, is subject to seasonal influences, with a significant portion of sales and income typically realized during the last quarter of our fiscal year due to the holiday season. Because of the seasonality of our business, results from any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for a full fiscal year.

Gross margin from retail operations, as a percentage of sales, increased to 44.9% from 43.7% during the nine months ended October 29, 2022 compared to the nine months ended October 30, 2021, respectively. Management attributes the improvement in gross margin to positive customer response to the company’s merchandise assortment combined with continued inventory management leading to decreased markdowns in the first nine months of 2022. Gross margin increased moderately in men’s apparel and accessories and ladies’ apparel, while increasing slightly in juniors’ and children’s apparel and cosmetics. Gross margin remained flat in shoes. Gross margin decreased slightly in ladies’ accessories and lingerie, while decreasing moderately in home and furniture.

Total inventory increased 8% as of October 29, 2022 compared to October 30, 2021, primarily as a result of rising inflation throughout the Company’s supply chain. A 1% change in the dollar amount of markdowns would have impacted net income by approximately $1 million and $5 million for the three and nine months ended October 29, 2022, respectively.

We source a significant portion of our private label and exclusive brand merchandise from countries that continue to be impacted by the COVID-19 virus. Additionally, many of our branded merchandise vendors may also source a significant portion of their merchandise from these same countries. This issue continues to negatively impact our supply chain, resulting in shipping delays as well as increased shipping costs.

Additionally, disruptions continue in the global transportation network, and it is unclear when these issues will be resolved. The California ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, which together handle a significant portion of United States merchandise imports, have experienced delays in processing imported merchandise, thereby resulting in untimely deliveries of merchandise. While these ports are currently operating with few delays, further shipping delays may occur if the ongoing west coast port labor contract negotiations fail or if the ongoing labor contract negotiations related to United States railroads, which move goods out of these ports, fail.

At present, while monitoring all of these situations closely, management is unable to quantify the effects of these factors on the Company's results of operations and inventory position for fiscal 2022.

The dollar increase in operating expenses in both the three and nine-month periods is primarily due to increased payroll and payroll-related expenses in the current highly competitive wage environment. Payroll expense and related payroll taxes for the three months ended October 29, 2022 was $276.3 million compared to $261.5 million for the three months ended October 30, 2021, increasing $14.8 million.

Net interest and debt expense decreased $3.6 million and $5.7 million during the three and nine months ended October 29, 2022 compared to the three and nine months ended October 30, 2021, respectively. The net decrease is primarily due to an increase in interest income from increasing rates on cash and cash equivalent balances and the purchases of short-term investments in the current year that did not occur in the prior period.

Interest income was $3.8 million and $0.5 million for the three months ended October 29, 2022 and October 30, 2021, respectively. Interest income was $5.8 million and $1.1 million for the nine months ended October 29, 2022 and October 30, 2021, respectively.

Net cash flows from operations decreased $169.7 million during the nine months ended October 29, 2022 compared to the nine months ended October 30, 2021. This decrease was primarily due to changes in working capital items, notably increases in merchandise inventories and trade accounts payable and accrued expenses and other liabilities.

During the nine months ended October 29, 2022, the Company purchased certain treasury bills for $196.8 million that are classified as short-term investments.

The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $532.7 million as of October 29, 2022. The Company maintains a credit facility (“credit agreement”) for general corporate purposes including, among other uses, working capital financing, the issuance of letters of credit, capital expenditures and, subject to certain restrictions, the repayment of existing indebtedness and share repurchases. The credit agreement provides a borrowing capacity of $800 million, subject to certain limitations as outlined in the credit agreement, with a $200 million expansion option.

In April 2021, the Company amended the credit agreement (the “2021 amendment”). See Note 7, Revolving Credit Agreement, in the “Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements,” in Part I, Item 1 hereof for additional information. During the nine months ended October 30, 2021, the Company paid $3.0 million in issuance costs related to the 2021 amendment, which were recorded in other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheet, and the Company recognized a loss on the early extinguishment of debt of $2.8 million for the write-off of certain remaining deferred financing fees related to the previous agreement. This charge was recorded in other expense on the condensed consolidated statement of income.

At October 29, 2022, no borrowings were outstanding, and letters of credit totaling $19.3 million were issued under the credit agreement leaving unutilized availability of $780.7 million.

During the nine months ended October 29, 2022, the Company repurchased 1.7 million shares of Class A Common Stock at an average price of $255.49 per share for $436.6 million under its stock repurchase plans, and the Company paid $16.2 million for share repurchases that had not yet settled but were accrued at January 29, 2022.

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 ("the Act") was signed into law. Under the Act share repurchases after December 31, 2022 will be subject to a 1% excise tax. This excise tax and the remaining corporate tax changes included in the Act are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

The Company expects to finance its operations during fiscal 2022 from cash on hand, cash flows generated from operations and, if necessary, utilization of the credit facility. Depending upon our actual and anticipated sources and uses of liquidity, the Company will from time to time consider other possible financing transactions, the proceeds of which could be used to fund working capital or for other corporate purposes.

There have been no material changes in the information set forth under caption “Commercial Commitments” in Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2022.
