CONDENSED
CONSOLIDATED NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR
THE THIRTEEN WEEKS ENDED MAY 5, 2019 AND MAY 6, 2018
(Unaudited)
NOTE
1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION, OPERATIONS AND LIQUIDITY
The
condensed consolidated balance sheet of The Lovesac Company (the “Company”) as of February 3, 2019, which has been
derived from our audited financial statements as of and for the 52-week year ended February 3, 2019, and the accompanying interim
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally
included in annual financial statements, prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America (“US GAAP”), have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. The financial information
presented herein, which is not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full current fiscal year, reflects all
adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the interim unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements. Such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. These condensed consolidated financial statements should
be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our audited consolidated financial
statements for the fiscal year ended February 3, 2019.
Due
to the seasonality of the Company’s business, with the majority of our activity occurring in the second half of the fiscal
year, the results of operations for the thirteen weeks ended May 5, 2019 and May 6, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of results
to be expected for the full fiscal year.
The
Company was formed as a Delaware corporation on January 3, 2017, in connection with a corporate reorganization with SAC
Acquisition LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, the predecessor entity to the Company and currently the largest
stockholder of the Company. Pursuant to the terms of the reorganization, which was completed on March 22, 2017, SAC
Acquisition LLC assigned, and the Company assumed all rights, title and interest to all assets and liabilities of SAC
Acquisition LLC, including the intellectual property that is currently owned by the Company, in exchange for 6,000,000
shares of common stock of the Company.
The
Company designs and sells foam filled furniture, sectional couches, and related accessories throughout the world. As of May 5,
2019, the Company operated 75 leased retail showrooms located throughout the United States. In addition, the Company operates
a retail Internet website and does business to business transactions through its wholesale operations.
The
Company has incurred significant operating losses and used cash in its operating activities since inception. Operating losses
have resulted from inadequate sales levels for the cost structure and expenses as a result of expanding into new markets, opening
new showrooms, and investments into marketing and infrastructure to support increases in revenues. The Company continues to open
new retail showrooms in larger markets to increase sales levels and invest in marketing initiatives to increase brand awareness.
Of course, there can be no assurance that anticipated sales levels will be achieved.
On
June 22, 2018, the board of directors of the Company approved a 1-for-2.5 reverse stock split of the Company’s shares of
common stock. The reverse stock split became effective immediately prior to the closing of its initial public offering (“IPO”).
All stock amounts included in these financial statements have been adjusted to reflect this reverse stock split.
On June 27, 2018, the Company completed its IPO, selling 4,025,000 shares of
common stock at a price of $16.00 per share. Net proceeds to the Company from the offering were approximately $58.9 million
after legal and underwriting expenses. The Company believes that based on its current sales and expense levels, projections
for the next twelve months, the credit facility with Wells Fargo Bank, see Note 7, and the proceeds from the IPO, as well as
the follow-on offering that was completed on May 21, 2019 in which the Company received approximately $25.5 million (see
below), the Company will have sufficient working capital to cover operating cash needs through the twelve-month period from
the financial statement
issuance
date.
On
October 29, 2018, certain selling stockholders conducted a secondary offering of 2,220,000 shares of common stock of the Company.
The Company did not sell any shares or receive any proceeds from the sale of the common stock by the selling stockholders.
On May 21, 2019, the Company and certain
of the Company’s stockholders completed a primary and secondary public offering of an aggregate of 2,500,000 shares of common
stock, which included 750,000 shares offered by the Company and 1,750,000 shares offered by certain selling stockholders of the
Company, at a public offering price of $36.00 per share. Net proceeds to the Company from the offering were approximately $25.5
million after legal and underwriting expenses. On May 29, 2019, the underwriters also exercised an option to purchase up to an
additional 375,000 shares of common stock from the selling stockholders. The Company did not receive any proceeds from the sale
of the common stock by the selling stockholders.
Immediately prior to the follow-on offerings
in October 2018 and May 2019, Mistral and its affiliates owned approximately 56% and 41% of our common stock, respectively. Immediately
after the completion of the follow-on offerings, such entities owned approximately 41% and 28.8% of our common stock, respectively.
As a result, we are no longer a “controlled company” within the meaning of the corporate governance standards of Nasdaq
and we will, subject to certain transition periods permitted by Nasdaq rules, no longer rely on exemptions from corporate governance
requirements that are available to controlled companies.
NOTE
2 – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Except
as described below, the Company has considered all other recently issued accounting pronouncements and does not believe the adoption
of such pronouncements will have a material impact on its financial statements. The Company, as an emerging growth company, has
elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised financial accounting standards.
The
following new accounting pronouncements were adopted in fiscal 2020:
In August 2015, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-14, which defers the effective
date of ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) by one year. ASU 2014-09 is a comprehensive new revenue
recognition model requiring a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount
reflecting the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. As a result, ASU 2015-14 is now effective
for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018, which for the Company is fiscal 2020.
We reviewed substantially all of our contracts and other revenue streams and determined that while the application of the new standard
did not have a material change in the amount of or timing for recognizing revenue, it did have a significant impact on our financial
statement disclosures which are further discussed in Note 12 – Revenue Recognition.
In
August 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows: Clarification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which
eliminates the diversity in practice related to classification of certain cash receipts and payments in the statement of cash
flows, by adding or clarifying guidance on eight specific cash flow issues. ASU 2016-15 is effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted,
including adoption in an interim period. The Company adopted the guidance retrospectively effective February 4, 2019, which did
not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.
The
following new accounting pronouncements, and related impacts on adoption are being evaluated by the Company:
In
February 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) amending lease guidance to increase transparency and
comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key
information about leasing arrangements. ASU No. 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019,
and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. This standard will
be effective beginning with our fiscal 2021. Management is currently evaluating the impact ASU No. 2016-02 will have on these
condensed consolidated financial statements. We anticipate that adopting this standard will have a material impact on our
consolidated balance sheet as we have a significant number of operating leases.
In
June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07,
Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting
(Topic 718). ASU 2018-07
eliminates the separate accounting model for nonemployee share-based payment awards and generally requires companies to account
for share-based payment transactions with nonemployees in the same way as share-based payment transactions with employees. The
accounting remains different for attribution, which represents how the equity-based payment cost is recognized over the vesting
period, and a contractual term election for valuing nonemployee equity share options. ASU 2018-07 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is
permitted, but no earlier than an entity’s adoption of Topic 606. Management is currently evaluating the impact ASU 2018-07
will have on these consolidated financial statements.

NOTE
4 – INCOME TAXES
The
Company continues to provide a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty as to when
business conditions will improve sufficiently to enable it to utilize its deferred tax assets. As a result, the Company did not
record a federal or state tax benefit on its operating losses for the thirteen weeks ended May 5, 2019 and May 6, 2018.
The
Company does not anticipate any material adjustments relating to unrecognized tax benefits within the next twelve months; however,
the ultimate outcome of tax matters is uncertain and unforeseen results can occur. We had no material interest or penalties during
the thirteen weeks ended May 5, 2019 and May 6, 2018, respectively, and we do not anticipate any such items during the next twelve
months. Our policy is to record interest and penalties directly related to uncertain tax positions as income tax expense in the
condensed consolidated statements of operations.

where the average market price of the common stock exceeds the exercise prices for the respective periods.
As
of May 5, 2019, there were 1,179,697, of potentially dilutive shares which may be issued in the future, including 104,681 shares
of common stock related to restricted stock units and warrants to purchase 1,075,016 shares of common stock. As of May 6, 2018,
there were 1,031,853 of potentially dilutive shares which may be issued in the future, including 232,878 shares of common stock
relating to restricted stock and warrants to purchase 798,975 shares of common stock. These were excluded from the diluted loss
per share calculation because the effect of including these potentially dilutive shares was antidilutive.

NOTE
7 – FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS
The
Company had a line of credit with Siena Lending Group, LLC to borrow up to $7.0 million, which matured on May 14, 2018. Borrowings
were limited to the lesser of 75% of inventory or 85% of the net orderly liquidation value of inventory and may be reduced by
certain liabilities of the Company. All amounts outstanding bore interest at the base rate, defined as the greatest of (i) Prime
Rate published by The Wall Street Journal, (ii) Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5% or (iii) 3.25%, plus 3% (7.00% at February 4, 2018).
The line was subject to a monthly unused line fee of 0.75%. The agreement was secured by the first lien on substantially all assets
of the Company. In February 2018, the Company paid the outstanding loan balance of $405, an early termination fee of $70,000 and
fully amortized the remaining deferred financing fees of $48,149 on its line of credit with Siena Lending Group, LLC.
On
February 6, 2018, the Company established a line of credit with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells”).
The line of credit with Wells allows the Company to borrow up to $25.0 million and will mature in February 2023. Borrowings are
limited to 90% of eligible credit card receivables plus 85% of eligible wholesale receivables plus 85% of the net recovery percentage
for the eligible inventory multiplied by the value of such eligible inventory of the Company for the period from December 16 of
each year until October 14 of the immediately following year, with a seasonal increase to 90% of the net recovery percentage for
the period from October 15 of each year until December 15 of such year, seasonal advance rate, minus applicable reserves established
by Wells. As of May 5, 2019, and February 3, 2019, the Company’s borrowing availability under the line of credit with Wells
Fargo was $13.4 million and $11.5 million, respectively. As of May 5, 2019, and February 3, 2019, there was $0 and $31,373 outstanding
on this line of credit.
Under
the line of credit with Wells, the Company may elect that revolving loans bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the base
rate plus the applicable margin or the LIBOR rate plus the applicable margin. The applicable margin is based on tier’s relating
to the quarterly average excess availability. The tiers range from 2.00% to 2.25%. The loan agreement calls for certain covenants
including a timing of the financial statements threshold and a minimum excess availability threshold. On May 3, 2018, the Company
elected a one-month revolving loan with a maturity date of June 4, 2018, that bears interest at the LIBOR rate plus the applicable
margin for an all-in-rate of 3.1875%. The one-month revolving loan matured and was paid in full on June 4, 2018.
NOTE
8 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Common
Stock Warrants
In fiscal 2018, the Company completed financing transactions with funds and investment vehicles advised
by Mistral, Satori, and executive management in which the Company originally issued 930,054 warrants to purchase common stock subject
to adjustments in the exercise price as defined below. In consideration for agreeing to amend the outstanding preferred stock to
automatically convert immediately prior to the completion of the IPO, on April 19, 2018, the Company and a majority of the holders
of the warrants issued along with the preferred stock, agreed to amend and restate the warrants to replace the aggregate dollar
value of each warrant with a fixed number of warrant shares. In order to prevent dilution of the purchase rights granted under
the warrants, the exercise price was calculated based on certain factors described in the amendment.
On April 19, 2018, the above warrants were modified, and the Company updated the fair value of the warrants
using the assumptions detailed below using a probability-weighted expected return. As the total fair value of the modified warrants
was less than the total fair value of the original warrants, there was no financial statement impact on April 19, 2018. The modification
resulted in the cancellation of the 930,054 warrants and the reissuance of 798,975 warrants.
On June 29, 2018, the Company completed a Qualified IPO and the exercise price was adjusted to equal the
purchase price per share of common stock of $16.00. The Company computed the value of the warrants with the updated assumptions
using the Black-Scholes Model, as described below, and recorded the difference between the fair value of the new warrants compared
to the old warrants as a deemed dividend of $1,498,079.
There
were 281,750 warrants, with a five-year term, issued to Roth Capital Partners, LLC as part of the underwriting agreement in connection
with the Company’s IPO. These warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes model, and remain outstanding as of May 5, 2019.
In the third quarter of fiscal 2019, the
Company amended and restated warrants totaling 56,077 with a three-year term, valued using the Black-Scholes model. The Company
recorded the difference between the fair value of the new warrants compared to the old warrants as a deemed dividend of $408,919.
These warrants were exercised in September 2018.
In fiscal 2020, the Company issued 18,166 warrants to a third party in connection with previous equity
raise. These warrants were, valued using the Black-Scholes model, with similar assumptions to the June 2018 warrants. The warrants
had a fair value of approximately $130,000. Of these warrants, 17,396 were exercised on May 14, 2019.
The
warrants may be exercised at any time following the date of issuance during the period prior to their expiration date. The fair
value of each warrant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes model. Expected volatilities are based on comparable
Companies’ historical volatility, which management believes represents the most accurate basis for estimating expected future
volatility under the current circumstances. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. treasury yield in effect at the time of the
grant.

11 – BARTER ARRANGEMENTS
The Company entered into a bartering arrangement
with Icon International, Inc., a vendor, whereas the Company provided inventory in exchange for media credits. During fiscal 2018,
the Company exchanged $577,326 of inventory plus the cost of freight for certain media credits. To account for the exchange, the
Company recorded the transfer of the inventory asset as a reduction of inventory and an increase to a prepaid media asset of $534,407
which is included in “Prepaid and other current assets” on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. The Company
had $307,417 of unused media credits remaining as of February 4, 2018 that were used in full during fiscal 2019. There were no
additional barter arrangements entered into during fiscal 2019 or the thirteen weeks ended May 5, 2019.
The
Company accounts for barter transactions under ASC Topic No. 845 “Nonmonetary Transactions.” Barter transactions with
commercial substance are recorded at the estimated fair value of the products exchanged, unless the products received have a more
readily determinable estimated fair value. Revenue associated with barter transactions is recorded at the time of the exchange
of the related assets.
NOTE
12 – REVENUE RECOGNITION
We implemented ASU 2015-04, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Accounting Standards Codification Topic
606, “ASC 606”), in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 using modified retrospective method, which required us to apply
the new guidance retrospectively to revenue transactions completed on or after the effective date. Adopting this new standard had
no material financial impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements but did result in enhanced presentation and disclosures.
Our
revenue consists substantially of product sales. We report product sales net of discounts and recognize them at the point in time
when control transfers to the customer, which generally gets transferred upon shipment.
Estimated
refunds for returns and allowances are recorded using our historical return patterns, adjusting for any changes in returns
policies. We record estimated refunds for net sales returns on a monthly basis as a reduction of net sales and cost of sales
on the statement of operations and an increase in inventory and customers returns liability on the balance sheet. At May 5,
2019, there was a returns allowance recorded on the balance sheet in the amount $548,974, which was in accrued expenses and
$164,083 associated with sales returns in merchandise inventories.
In some cases, deposits are received before we have transferred control, resulting in contract liabilities.
These contract liabilities are reported as deposits on our balance sheet. As of May 5, 2019, and February 3, 2019, we had customer
deposit liabilities in the amount of $1,331,493 and $1,059,957, respectively.
Upon
adoption of ASC 606, we have elected the following accounting policies and practical expedients:
We
recognize shipping and handling expense as fulfillment activities (rather than as a promised good or service) when the activities
are performed even if those activities are performed after the control of the good has been transferred. Accordingly, we record
the expenses for shipping and handling activities at the same time we recognize revenue.
We
exclude from the measurement of the transaction price all taxes imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction
and collected by the entity from a customer, including sales, use, excise, value-added, and franchise taxes (collectively referred
to as sales taxes).
We
do not adjust revenue for the effects of financing components if the contract has a duration of one year or less, as we believe
that we will receive payment from the customer within one year of when we transfer control of the related goods.
The
Company offers its products through an inventory lean omni-channel platform that provides a seamless and meaningful experience
to its customers in showrooms and through the internet. The other channel predominantly represents sales through the use of shop
in shops that typically average ten days at a time and are staffed with associates trained to demonstrate and sell our product.
