Ollie’s Bargain Outlet Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Company” or “Ollie’s”) is a leading off-price retailer of brand-name household products. The Company principally buys and sells overproduced, overstocked, and closeout merchandise from manufacturers, wholesalers, and other retailers.

Since its first store opened in 1982, the Company has grown to
| (b) | Fiscal Year |
Ollie’s follows a 52/53-week fiscal year, which ends on the Saturday nearer to January 31st of the following calendar year. References to “fiscal year 2026” or “fiscal 2026” refer to the period from February 1, 2026 to January 30, 2027 and references to “fiscal year 2025” or “fiscal 2025” refer to the period from February 2, 2025 to January 31, 2026. Both periods consist of 52 weeks. References to the thirteen weeks ended August 1, 2026 and August 2, 2025 refer to the thirteen weeks from May 3, 2026 to August 1, 2026 and from May 4, 2025 to August 2, 2025, respectively. References to the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2026 and August 2, 2025 refer to the twenty-six weeks from February 1, 2026 to August 1, 2026 and from February 2, 2025 to August 2, 2025, respectively.
| (c) | Basis of Presentation |
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. The condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments which management believes are necessary to present fairly the Company’s results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows for all periods presented. The Company’s business is seasonal in nature and results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year or any other period. All intercompany accounts, transactions, and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
The Company’s balance sheet as of January 31, 2026, presented herein, has been derived from the audited balance sheet included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2025 as filed with the SEC on March 19, 2026 and referred to herein as the “Annual Report”, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for fiscal 2025 and footnotes thereto included in the Annual Report.
For purposes of the disclosure requirements for segments of a business enterprise, it has been determined that the Company is comprised of

| (d) | Use of Estimates |
The preparation of the 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 the disclosure 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.
(e)Fair Value Disclosures
Fair value is defined as the price which the Company would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. In determining fair value, GAAP establishes a three-level hierarchy used in measuring fair value, as follows:
| ● | Level 1 inputs are quoted prices available for identical assets and liabilities in active markets. |
| ● | Level 2 inputs are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. |
| ● | Level 3 inputs are unobservable, developed using the Company’s estimates and assumptions, which reflect those that market participants would use. |
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, investment securities, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and the Company’s credit facilities. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable are representative of their respective fair value because of their short-term nature. The carrying amount of the Company’s credit facilities approximates its fair value because the interest rates are adjusted regularly based on current market conditions. Under the fair value hierarchy, the fair market values of cash equivalents and the investments in treasury bonds are Level 1 while the investments in U.S. agency bonds, asset-backed securities, municipal, and corporate bonds are Level 2 and generally have counterparties with high-quality, investment-grade credit ratings. Since quoted prices in active markets for identical assets are not available, these prices are determined by a third-party pricing service using observable market information such as quotes from less active markets and quoted prices of similar securities.

| (f) | Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements |
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03 “Income Statement–Reporting Comprehensive Income–Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses” (“ASU 2024-03”) which requires disaggregated disclosure of certain costs and expenses, including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization and depletion, within relevant income statement captions. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06 “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software.” This ASU modernizes the capitalization criteria for internal-use software by eliminating references to project stages and clarifying the threshold applied to begin capitalizing costs. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027 and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual reporting period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2025-06 on its consolidated financial statements.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11 “Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements.” This ASU amends Topic 270 to clarify interim reporting requirements and enhance consistency. It is not intended to significantly change interim reporting or expand or reduce interim disclosure requirements. This ASU is effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-12 “Codification Improvements” to correct, clarify, and otherwise improve U.S. GAAP. This ASU includes 33 improvements that span a wide range of topics and is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements.

(2) | Net Sales |
Revenue Recognition
Ollie’s recognizes retail sales in its stores when merchandise is sold, and the customer takes possession of merchandise. Also included in net sales is revenue allocated to certain redeemed discounts earned via the Ollie’s Army loyalty program, revenue from Ollie’s co-branded credit card, and gift card breakage. Net sales are presented net of returns and sales tax. The Company provides an allowance for estimated retail merchandise returns based on prior experience.
Ollie’s Army
The Company operates a customer loyalty program called Ollie’s Army. Revenue is deferred for the Ollie’s Army loyalty program where members accumulate points that can be redeemed for discounts on future purchases. The Company has determined it has an additional performance obligation to Ollie’s Army members at the time of the initial transaction. The Company allocates the transaction price to the initial transaction and the discount awards based upon its relative standalone selling price, which considers historical redemption patterns for the award. Revenue is recognized as those discount awards are redeemed. Discount awards issued upon the achievement of specified point levels are subject to expiration. Unless it is temporarily extended, the maximum redemption period is

Gift Card Breakage
Gift card breakage for gift card liabilities not subject to escheatment is recognized as revenue in proportion to the redemption of gift cards. Gift cards do not expire. The rate applied to redemptions is based upon a historical breakage rate. Gift cards are combined in one homogeneous pool and are not separately identifiable. Therefore, the revenue recognized consists of gift cards that were included in the liability at the beginning of the period as well as gift cards that were issued during the period.

The Company offers a co-branded credit card that can be used by customers for purchases at Ollie’s and everywhere else the co-branded credit card is accepted, and credit is extended to such customers by a third-party financial institution on a non-recourse basis to the Company. The co-branded credit card includes a performance obligation for the Company which includes marketing and promoting the program on behalf of the bank and the operation of the Company’s loyalty rewards program. Loyalty members earn points through purchases made using the card.
The third party reimburses the Company for certain credit card program costs such as advertising and loyalty points, which help promote the credit card program. The Company recognizes revenue when collectability is reasonably assured, under the assumption the amounts are not constrained and it is probable that a significant revenue reversal will not occur in future periods, which is generally the time at which the actual usage of the credit cards or specified transaction occurs.
Under the program, the Company receives a percentage of the sales generated by Ollie’s co-branded credit card, in exchange for primary marketing functions. As a result, all amounts associated with the program are recognized within net sales on the consolidated statements of income. Additionally, the Company is entitled to certain bonuses based on performance of the program.
(3) | Earnings per Common Share |
Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding after giving effect to the potential dilution, if applicable, from the assumed exercise of stock options into shares of common stock as if those stock options were exercised and the assumed lapse of restrictions on restricted stock units.
The following table summarizes those effects for the diluted earnings per common share calculation:

(4) | Leases |
The Company generally leases its stores, offices, and distribution facilities under operating leases that expire at various dates through the year 2043. These leases generally provide for fixed annual rentals; however, several provide for minimum annual rentals plus contingent rentals based on a percentage of annual sales. A majority of the Company’s leases also require a payment for all or a portion of common-area maintenance, insurance, real estate taxes, water and sewer costs, and repairs, on a fixed or variable payment basis. Many of the Company’s lease agreements provide options to extend the lease term beyond the initial non-cancelable period. Most of the leases contain options to renew for
The Company determines if an arrangement contains a lease at the inception of a contract. All of the Company’s leases are classified as operating leases and the associated assets and liabilities are presented as separate captions in the consolidated balance sheets. Operating lease assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and operating lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease.
Store and office lease costs are classified in selling, general, and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) and distribution center lease costs are classified in cost of sales on the condensed consolidated statements of income.

Contingencies
From time to time, the Company may be involved in claims and legal actions that arise in the ordinary course of its business. The Company cannot predict the outcome of any claim or legal action to which it is a party. However, the Company does not believe that an unfavorable decision of any of the current claims or legal actions against it, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations, liquidity, or capital resources.
IEEPA Tariff Refunds
In February 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court issued a ruling that certain tariffs previously imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (“IEEPA”) were invalid, and in March 2026, the U.S. Court of International Trade ruled that the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (“CBP”) must refund duties imposed under IEEPA. In April 2026, the CBP launched a platform for submitting IEEPA tariff refund claims. During the second quarter of fiscal 2026, the Company received $

(8) | Income Taxes |
The effective income tax rates for the thirteen weeks ended August 1, 2026 and August 2, 2025 were
On July 4, 2025, the U.S. federal government enacted the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” resulting in significant changes to the federal tax code, most notably the permanent extension of certain expiring provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 and the restoration of favorable tax treatment for certain business provisions. The Company has evaluated and incorporated the effects of the legislation in its income tax provision.
The Company is subject to tax in the United States. The Company files a consolidated U.S. income tax return for federal income tax purposes. The Company is no longer subject to income tax examinations by U.S. federal, or state and local tax authorities for tax years prior to 2022.
Management believes that an adequate provision has been made for any adjustments that may result from tax examinations. However, the outcome of tax audits cannot be predicted with certainty. If any issues arise as a result of a tax audit and are resolved in a manner not consistent with management’s expectations, the Company could be required to adjust its provision for income taxes in the period such resolution occurs.
(9) | Equity Incentive Plans |
In connection with its initial public offering, the Company adopted the 2015 equity incentive plan (the “2015 Plan”) pursuant to which the Company’s Board of Directors may grant stock options, restricted shares or other awards to employees, directors, and consultants. The 2015 Plan allowed for the issuance of up to

To estimate the expected life of stock options, the Company uses its historical information to develop reasonable expectations about future exercise patterns and post-vesting employment termination behavior for its stock option grants. For expected volatility, the Company uses its historical information over the expected life of the option granted to calculate the fair value of option grants. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury notes with a term approximating the expected life of the option.

The shares to be repurchased may be purchased from time to time in open market conditions (including blocks), privately negotiated transactions, accelerated share repurchase programs or other derivative transactions, issuer self-tender offers, or any combination of the foregoing. The timing of repurchases and the actual amount purchased will depend on a variety of factors, including the market price of the Company’s shares, general market, economic and business conditions, and other corporate considerations. Repurchases may be made pursuant to plans intended to comply with Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which could allow the Company to purchase its shares during periods when it otherwise might be prevented from doing so under insider trading laws or because of self-imposed trading blackout periods. Repurchases are expected to be funded from cash on hand or through the utilization of the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility. The repurchase authorization does not require the purchase of a specific number of shares and is subject to suspension or termination by the Company’s Board of Directors at any time.

You are advised, however, to consult any further disclosures we make on related subjects in our public announcements and SEC filings.
Overview
Ollie’s Bargain Outlet is a leading off-price retailer of brand-name household products. Since our founding in 1982, the Company’s mission has been to sell Good Stuff Cheap®. We do this through a flexible buying model that focuses on closeout merchandise and excess inventory from suppliers and manufacturers around the world. Our stores offer Real Brands! Real Bargains! ® in a treasure hunt shopping environment at prices up to 70% below traditional retailers.
Our highly experienced merchandise team is constantly scouring the market and leveraging deep, long-standing relationships across the supply chain to find the best products at the best prices. We focus on buying cheap and selling cheap, and source products as unique buying opportunities present themselves. While the individual products sold in our stores are constantly changing, our overall merchandise mix is designed to save people money on a wide variety of brand-name household products that they need and use in their everyday lives.
Our primary point of differentiation against other retailers is the pricing of our products. Our goal is to be the lowest- priced retailer of any product offered by our stores. We believe our flexible business model, opportunistic buying strategy, low-cost structure, experienced merchant team with deep relationships across the vendor community, and extensive experience of buying and selling closeout merchandise and excess inventory differentiate us from traditional retailers.
Since the founding of Ollie’s in 1982, our principal growth strategy has been the opening of new stores. Historically, we have expanded our store base by opening new stores organically. In fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2025, we expanded our store base by acquiring former store locations of bankrupt retailers through the bankruptcy auction process. Our growth strategy continuously evaluates the best opportunities in the marketplace and combines organic new store openings with the acquisition of store locations. We follow a contiguous unit growth strategy that combines backfilling existing markets and states with entering new markets and states in a contiguous manner. As of August 1, 2026 we operated 686 stores in 36 states.
While we are focused on driving comparable store sales and managing our expenses, the biggest driver of our net sales and profitability growth has historically been the opening of new stores. As we continue to grow, we believe we will have greater access to brand-name closeout merchandise and an increased deal selection, resulting in more potential offerings for our customers.
Our ability to grow and our results of operations may be impacted by additional factors and uncertainties, such as consumer spending levels, which are subject to macroeconomic conditions and changes in discretionary income. Our customers’ discretionary income is impacted by changes in wages, gasoline and energy prices, interest rates, inflation, housing prices, rental rates, and consumer trends and preferences. The potential consolidation of our competitors or other changes in our competitive landscape could also impact our results of operations or our ability to grow. However, because we offer a broad selection of merchandise at extreme values, we believe we are generally less impacted than other retailers by economic cycles that correspond with declines in general consumer spending habits. We believe we also benefit from periods of increased consumer spending.
Management looks at a number of financial and operating measures in assessing the performance of the business, including new store openings, net sales, comparable store sales, gross profit and gross margin, operating expenses, operating income, earnings per share, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA.
20
The number of new stores reflects the number of stores opened during a particular reporting period. Before we open new stores, we incur pre-opening expenses described below under “Pre-Opening Expenses” and we make an initial investment in inventory. We also make initial capital investments in fixtures and equipment, which we amortize over time. Sales of new stores are typically strong in the first few months of operation because of the advertising and marketing spending associated with a new store grand opening and the word of mouth in the local community.
Comparable store sales measure performance of a store during the current reporting period against the performance of the same store in the corresponding period of the previous year. Comparable store sales consist of net sales from our stores beginning on the first day of the sixteenth full fiscal month following the store’s opening, which is when we believe comparability is achieved. Stores that remain open during a remodel or refresh process, stores that are relocated within the same trade area, and stores that changed in size are generally classified in the same way as the original store, and we believe that their impact on the percentage change in consolidated comparable store sales is immaterial. Comparable store sales are also referred to as “same-store” sales by other retail companies.
Gross profit is equal to our net sales less our cost of sales. Cost of sales includes: merchandise costs, inventory markdowns, inventory shrinkage and tariff, transportation, distribution, and warehousing costs, including wages, benefits, and depreciation and amortization.
SG&A expenses are comprised of wages and benefits for store, field support, and support center associates. SG&A expenses also include marketing and advertising expense, occupancy and operating costs for stores and the store support center, insurance, corporate infrastructure, and other general expenses.
Pre-opening expenses consist of all expenses associated with the opening of new stores and distribution centers, as well as all expenses associated with the remodel and/or closing of an existing store.
The method of calculating comparable store sales, gross profit, SG&A and pre-opening expenses varies across the retail industry. As a result, our calculation of these items may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other retail companies.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are key metrics used by management and our Board to assess our financial performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are also frequently used by analysts, investors, and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry. We use Adjusted EBITDA to supplement GAAP measures of performance to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies, to make budgeting decisions, to evaluate our performance in connection with compensation decisions and to compare our performance against that of other peer companies using similar measures. Management believes it is useful to investors and analysts to evaluate these non-GAAP measures on the same basis as management uses to evaluate the Company’s operating results. We believe that excluding items from operating income, net income, and net income per diluted share that may not be indicative of, or are unrelated to, our core operating results, and that may vary in frequency or magnitude, enhances the comparability of our results and provides a better baseline for analyzing trends in our business.
We define EBITDA as net income before net interest income or expense, depreciation and amortization expenses, and income taxes. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA as further adjusted for non-cash stock-based compensation expense and gains on insurance settlements. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP measures and may not be comparable to similar measures reported by other companies. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. In the future we may incur expenses or charges such as those added back to calculate Adjusted EBITDA. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by these items. For further discussion of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA and for reconciliations of net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, see “Results of Operations.”

Factors Affecting the Comparability of our Results of Operations
Our results over the past two years have been affected by the following factors, which must be understood in order to assess the comparability of our period-to-period financial performance and condition.
Historical Results
Historical results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period.
Store Openings and Closings
During the second quarter of fiscal 2026, we opened 15 new stores and closed one store due to storm-related damage, compared with 29 new store openings in the second quarter of fiscal 2025. Pre-opening expenses related to these store openings were $5.2 million and $9.0 million for the second quarters of fiscal 2026 and 2025, respectively.
During the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2026, we opened 42 new stores and closed one store, compared with 54 new store openings during the same period in fiscal 2025. Pre-opening expenses related to these store openings were $11.6 million and $15.6 million for the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2026 and August 2, 2025, respectively.
Seasonality
There is some seasonality to our business. Net sales are generally the highest in our fourth fiscal quarter due to the holiday sales season. To prepare for the holiday sales season, we must order and keep in stock more merchandise than we carry during other times of the year and generally engage in additional marketing efforts. We expect inventory levels, along with accounts payable and accrued expenses, to reach their highest levels in our third and fourth fiscal quarters in anticipation of increased net sales during the holiday sales season. As a result of this holiday-related seasonality and other variations in consumer spending habits, we experience fluctuations in net sales and working capital requirements during the year. Because we offer a broad selection of merchandise at extreme values, we believe we are less impacted than other retailers by economic cycles which correspond with declines in general consumer spending habits, and we believe we still benefit from periods of increased consumer spending.
IEEPA Tariff Refunds
In February 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court issued a ruling that certain tariffs previously imposed under IEEPA were invalid, and in March 2026, the U.S. Court of International Trade ruled that the CBP must refund duties imposed under IEEPA. In April 2026, the CBP launched a platform for submitting IEEPA tariff refund claims. During the second quarter of fiscal 2026, we received $29.4 million in tariff refunds, of which $28.3 million was included in cost of sales and $1.1 million was included in interest income.
22
Results of Operations
The following tables summarize key components of our results of operations for the periods indicated, both in dollars and as a percentage of our net sales.
We derived the condensed consolidated statements of income for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2026 and August 2, 2025 from our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes.

Second Quarter of Fiscal 2026 Compared to Second Quarter of Fiscal 2025
Net Sales
Net sales increased to $741.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 from $679.6 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2025, an increase of $61.7 million, or 9.1%. The increase in net sales was the result of new store unit growth, partially offset by a comparable store sales decrease of 1.8%.
Comparable store sales decreased 1.8% in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 compared with a 5.0% increase in the second quarter of fiscal 2025. The decrease in comparable store sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 was driven by a decrease in basket size.
Gross Profit and Gross Margin
Gross profit increased to $322.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 from $271.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2025, an increase of $50.8 million, or 18.7%. Gross margin increased 360 basis points to 43.5% in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 from 39.9% in the second quarter of fiscal 2025. The increase in gross margin was driven by lower supply chain costs, primarily from IEEPA tariff refunds received and lower tariff rates incurred in the period.
Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses
SG&A expenses increased to $197.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 from $175.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2025, an increase of $21.7 million, or 12.4%. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A increased 80 basis points to 26.6% in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 from 25.8% in the second quarter of fiscal 2025. The increase in SG&A as a percentage of net sales was primarily driven by the deleveraging of fixed costs from the decline in comparable store sales and higher marketing expense due to the timing shift of one merchandise flyer.
Pre-Opening Expenses
Pre-opening expenses decreased to $5.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 from $9.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2025, a decrease of $3.8 million, or 42.0%. The decline was primarily driven by fewer new store openings. We opened 15 stores in the second quarter of fiscal 2026, compared with 29 stores in the prior-year period. As a percentage of net sales, pre-opening expenses decreased to 0.7% in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to 1.3% in the second quarter of fiscal 2025.
24
Interest Income, Net
Interest income, net was $6.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 compared with $4.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2025. The increase was primarily due to tariff interest received in the quarter and higher investment balances, partially offset by lower interest rates.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 was $29.2 million compared to $20.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2025. The effective tax rates for the second quarters of fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2025 were 25.4% and 24.8%, respectively. The change in the effective income tax rate was driven by the impact of discrete items recognized, primarily excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation and the expiration of the Work Opportunity Tax Credit.
Net Income
As a result of the foregoing, net income increased to $85.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 from $61.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2025, an increase of $24.2 million or 39.4%.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA increased to $127.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 from $93.8 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2025, an increase of $33.3 million, or 35.5%.
Year-to-Date Fiscal 2026 Compared to Year-to-Date Fiscal 2025
Net Sales
Net sales increased to $1.400 billion in the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2026 from $1.256 billion in the twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 2025, an increase of $143.9 million, or 11.5%. The increase in net sales was the result of new store unit growth.
Comparable store sales were flat in the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2026 compared with a 3.9% increase in the twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 2025.
Gross Profit and Gross Margin
Gross profit increased to $598.1 million in the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2026 from $508.4 million in the twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 2025, an increase of $89.7 million, or 17.7%. Gross margin increased 220 basis points to 42.7% in the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2026 from 40.5% in the twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 2025. The increase in gross margin was driven by lower supply chain costs, primarily from IEEPA tariff refunds received and lower tariff rates incurred in the second quarter.
Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses
SG&A expenses increased to $385.9 million in the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2026 from $340.3 million in the twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 2025, an increase of $45.6 million, or 13.4%. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A increased 50 basis points to 27.6% in the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2026 from 27.1% in the twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 2025. The increase in SG&A as a percentage of net sales was primarily driven by the deleveraging of fixed costs from the decline in comparable store sales in the second quarter and higher marketing expense due to the timing shift of one merchandise flyer.
25
Pre-Opening Expenses
Pre-opening expenses decreased to $11.6 million in the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2026 from $15.6 million in the twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 2025, a decrease of $4.0 million, or 25.5%. The decline was primarily driven by fewer new store openings. We opened 42 stores in the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2026, compared with 54 stores in the prior-year period. As a percentage of net sales, pre-opening expenses decreased to 0.8% in the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2026 compared to 1.2% in the twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 2025.
Interest Income, Net
Interest income, net increased to $11.1 million in the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2026 from $9.3 million in the twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 2025. The increase was primarily due to tariff interest received in the second quarter and higher investment balances, partially offset by lower interest rates.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense in the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2026 was $47.3 million compared to $33.6 million in the twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 2025. The effective tax rates for the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2026 and August 2, 2025 were 25.0% and 23.6%, respectively. The change in the effective income tax rate was driven by the impact of discrete items recognized, primarily excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation and the expiration of the Work Opportunity Tax Credit.
Net Income
As a result of the foregoing, net income increased to $141.9 million in the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2026 from $108.9 million in the twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 2025, an increase of $33.0 million or 30.3%.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA increased to $215.0 million in the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2026 from $165.9 million in the twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 2025, an increase of $49.0 million, or 29.6%.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
Our primary sources of liquidity are net cash flows provided by operating activities and available borrowings under our $100.0 million Revolving Credit Facility. Our primary cash needs are for capital expenditures and working capital. As of August 1, 2026, we had $88.4 million available to borrow under our Revolving Credit Facility and $187.5 million of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments on hand. For further information regarding our Revolving Credit Facility, see Note 7 under “Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.”
Our capital expenditures are primarily related to new store openings, lease acquisitions and related build-out costs, store resets, which consist of improvements to stores as they are needed, expenditures related to our distribution centers, and infrastructure-related investments, including investments related to upgrading and maintaining our information technology systems. We spent $43.3 million and $26.4 million for capital expenditures during the second quarters of fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2025, respectively. For the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2026, we spent $68.8 million for capital expenditures compared to $53.2 million for the twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 2025. We opened 15 new stores during the second quarter of fiscal 2026 and opened 29 new stores during the second quarter of fiscal 2025.
Capital expenditures in fiscal 2026 are planned to be approximately $103 to $113 million, primarily for the opening of 75 new stores, store-level initiatives at our existing stores, the expansion of one existing distribution center, as well
26
as general corporate capital expenditures, including information technology. We have experienced, and may continue to experience, delays in construction and permitting of new stores and other projects.
Our primary working capital requirements are for the purchase of merchandise inventories, payroll, store rent associated with our operating leases, other store operating costs, distribution costs, and general and administrative costs. Our working capital requirements fluctuate during the year, rising in our third fiscal quarter as we increase quantities of inventory in anticipation of our peak holiday sales season in our fourth fiscal quarter. Fluctuations in working capital are also driven by the timing of new store openings.
Historically, we have funded our capital expenditures and working capital requirements during the fiscal year with cash flows from operations.
A financial instrument which potentially subjects the Company to a concentration of credit risk is cash. Ollie’s currently maintains its day-to-day operating cash balances with major financial institutions. The Company’s operating cash balances are in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance limit. From time to time, Ollie’s invests temporary excess cash in overnight investments with expected minimal volatility, such as money market funds. Although the Company maintains balances which exceed the FDIC insured limit, it has not experienced any losses related to these balances.
We believe our cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments position, net cash provided by operating activities and availability under our Revolving Credit Facility will be adequate to finance our planned capital expenditures, working capital requirements, debt service and other financing activities over the next 12 months. If cash provided by operating activities and borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility are not sufficient or available to meet our capital requirements, we will then be required to obtain additional equity or debt financing in the future. There can be no assurance equity or debt financing will be available to us when needed or, if available, the terms will be satisfactory to us and not dilutive to our then-current stockholders.
Share Repurchase Program
In December 2020, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program, which has subsequently been increased and extended from time to time. Through August 1, 2026, our Board had authorized an aggregate of $700.0 million for share repurchases under the program. The current authorization is effective through March 31, 2029.
The shares to be repurchased may be purchased from time to time in open market conditions (including blocks), privately negotiated transactions, accelerated share repurchase programs or other derivative transactions, issuer self-tender offers or any combination of the foregoing. The timing of repurchases and the actual amount purchased will depend on a variety of factors, including the market price of our shares, general market, economic and business conditions, and other corporate considerations. Repurchases may be made pursuant to plans intended to comply with Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which could allow us to purchase our shares during periods when we otherwise might be prevented from doing so under insider trading laws or because of self-imposed trading blackout periods. Repurchases are expected to be funded from cash on hand or through the utilization of our Revolving Credit Facility. The repurchase authorization does not require the purchase of a specific number of shares and is subject to suspension or termination by our Board at any time.
During the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2026, we repurchased 1,649,889 shares of our common stock for $137.3 million, inclusive of transaction costs, pursuant to our share repurchase program. During the twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 2025, we repurchased 257,434 shares of our common stock for $28.6 million, inclusive of transaction costs, pursuant to our share repurchase program. The repurchases were funded by cash generated from operations. As of August 1, 2026, we had approximately $121.5 million remaining under our share repurchase authorization. There can be no assurance that any additional repurchases will be completed, or as to the timing or amount of any repurchases.

Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents | $ | (138,915) | $ | 26,040 | |||
Cash Provided by Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities was $153.6 million for the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2026 as compared to $109.4 million for the twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 2025. Operating cash flow was positively impacted by higher net income and higher operating expense related accruals, partially offset by an increase in inventory resulting from new store growth and the timing of merchandise payments.
Cash Used in Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities for the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2026 and August 2, 2025 was $150.7 million and $58.0 million, respectively. Cash used in investing activities includes capital expenditures of $68.8 million and purchases of investments, net of maturities, of $82.3 million.
Cash Used in Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities for the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2026 and August 2, 2025 was $141.9 million and $25.4 million, respectively. Cash used in financing activities reflects payments of $137.3 million for the repurchase of common stock and $4.9 million for taxes related to restricted stock vestings.
Contractual Obligations
We enter into long-term contractual obligations and commitments in the normal course of business, primarily operating leases. Except as set forth in Note 4 of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, there have been no material changes to our contractual obligations as disclosed in our Annual Report, other than those which occur in the ordinary course of business.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and related disclosures. There have been no significant changes in the significant accounting policies and estimates.

ITEM 3.QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Interest Rate Risk
We are subject to interest rate risk in connection with borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility, which bears interest at variable rates. As of August 1, 2026, we had no outstanding variable rate debt.
As of August 1, 2026, there were no material changes in the market risks described in the “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure of Market Risks” section of our Annual Report.
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 historical results of operations and financial condition have been immaterial. We cannot be assured that our results of operations and financial condition will not be materially impacted by inflation in the future.
ITEM 4.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management has evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) of the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are effective at a reasonable assurance level in ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is: (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported in a timely manner, and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. While our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of their effectiveness, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting during the second quarter of fiscal 2026 that have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
29
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1.LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
From time to time we may be involved in claims and legal actions that arise in the ordinary course of our business. We cannot predict the outcome of any litigation or suit to which we are a party. However, we do not believe that an unfavorable decision of any of the current claims or legal actions against us, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, liquidity or capital resources.
ITEM 1A.RISK FACTORS
See Item 1A in our Annual Report for a detailed description of risk factors affecting the Company. There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in that filing.
