Exhibit 99.1

2<br>IMPORTANT INFORMATION<br>Forward-Looking Statements<br>This presentation contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this presentation are forward-<br>looking statements. You can identify forward-looking statements by the fact that they generally include words such as "anticipate," "estimate," "expect," "project," "plan,“ "intend," "believe,"<br>“outlook” and other words of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of the timing or nature of future operating or financial performance or other events but not all forward-looking<br>statements contain these identifying words. These forward-looking statements are based on assumptions that the Company’s management has made in light of their industry experience and on<br>their perceptions of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors they believe are appropriate under the circumstances. As you consider this presentation,<br>you should understand that these statements are not guarantees of performance or results. They involve risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond the Company’s control) and assumptions.<br>These risks, uncertainties and assumptions include, but are not limited to, the following: the effect of COVID-19 on our business operations, growth strategies, store traffic, employee availability,<br>financial condition, liquidity and cash flow; decreases in consumer spending due to declines in consumer confidence, local economic conditions or changes in consumer preferences and the<br>Company’s ability to effectively: execute on its growth strategy; maintain and enhance its strong brand image; compete effectively; maintain good relationships with its key suppliers; and improve<br>and expand its exclusive product offerings. The Company discusses the foregoing risks and other risks in greater detail under the heading “Risk factors” in the periodic reports filed by the<br>Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Although the Company believes that these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, you should be aware that<br>many factors could affect the Company’s actual financial results and cause them to differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements. Because of these factors, the<br>Company cautions that you should not place undue reliance on any of these forward-looking statements. New risks and uncertainties arise from time to time, and it is impossible for the Company<br>to predict those events or how they may affect the Company. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made. Except as required by law, the Company does<br>not intend to update or revise the forward-looking statements in this presentation after the date of this presentation.<br>Industry and Market Information<br>Statements in this presentation concerning our industry and the markets in which we operate, including our general expectations and competitive position, business opportunity and market size,<br>growth and share, are based on information from independent industry organizations and other third-party sources, data from our internal research and management estimates. Management<br>estimates are derived from publicly available information and the information and data referred to above, and are based on assumptions and calculations made by us based upon our<br>interpretation of such information and data. The information and data referred to above are imprecise and may prove to be inaccurate because the information cannot always be verified with<br>complete certainty due to the limitations on the availability and reliability of raw data, the voluntary nature of the data gathering process and other limitations and uncertainties. As a result, please<br>be aware that the data and statistical information in this presentation may differ from information provided by our competitors or from information found in current or future studies conducted<br>by market research institutes, consultancy firms or independent sources.<br>COVID-19 Impact<br>The extent to which COVID-19 impacts our operations will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and difficult to predict, including, among others, the duration of the<br>outbreak, new information that may emerge concerning the severity of COVID-19 and the actions, especially those taken by governmental authorities, to contain the pandemic or treat its impact.<br>As events are rapidly changing, additional impacts may arise that we are not aware of currently. For more information about the risks, uncertainties, and other factors that could affect our future<br>results, please see the risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and our subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.<br>Non-GAAP Financial Measures<br>The Company presents Adjusted EBIT because it is an important financial measure that its management, board of directors and lenders use to assess the Company’s operating performance.<br>However, Adjusted EBIT is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income or any other measure of financial performance calculated and<br>presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company defines Adjusted EBIT as earnings before interest and income tax, adjusted to exclude non-cash stock-based compensation, the non-cash<br>accrual for future award redemptions, acquisition-related expenses, acquisition-related integration costs, amortization of inventory fair value adjustment, loss on disposal of assets and contract<br>termination costs, loss/(gain) on adjustment of ROU asset and liability, store impairment charges, secondary offering costs, and other due diligence expenses. In addition, for fiscal year 2017,<br>which was a 53-week fiscal year, the Company has made further adjustments to account for the extra week. Since Adjusted EBIT is a non-GAAP financial measure, it is susceptible to varying<br>calculations and the Company’s Adjusted EBIT may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, including companies in its industry. See the Appendix to this presentation<br>for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBIT to Net Income.

Fiscal 2016 includes an adjustment to normalize the gross margin impact of sales of discontinued inventory from Sheplers, which<br>was sold at a discount or written off. The adjustment assumes such inventory was sold at Sheplers’ normalized margin rate.<br>(e) Represents the amortization of purchase-accounting adjustments that adjusted the value of inventory acquired to its fair value.<br>(f) Represents loss on disposal of assets and contract termination costs.<br>(g) Represents gain/(loss) on adjustment of ROU assets and liabilities.<br>(h) Represents professional fees and expenses incurred in connection with secondary offerings conducted in January 2018, May 2018 and February 2015 and a Form S-1 Registration Statement filed<br>in July 2015 and withdrawn in November 2015.<br>(i) Represents professional fees and expenses incurred in connection with acquisition activity.<br>(j) Represents store impairment charges recorded in order to reduce the carrying amount of the assets to their estimated fair values.<br>1The fiscal 2017 column has been adjusted to reflect management’s estimated 52-week results as fiscal 2017 was a 53-week year. The Company estimated that included in fiscal 2017 reported earnings<br>per share was $0.03 attributed to the 53rd week. As such, the Company has estimated fiscal 2017 net income, excluding the 53rd week, to be $13.4 million compared to GAAP net income of $14.2<br>million. In calculating estimated Adjusted EBIT on a 52-week basis, the Company also adjusted income tax expense, interest expense, and stock based compensation expense by taking 52/53rds of the<br>GAAP reported fiscal 2017 numbers.
