FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This report contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. All statements other than statements of historical or current fact included in this report are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include references to our current expectations and projections relating to our financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, strategies, future performance, and business. You can identify forward-looking statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. These statements may include words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “plan,” “intend,” “believe,” “may,” “might,” “will,” “should,” “can have,” and “likely” and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of the timing or nature of future operating or financial performance or other events. For example, all statements we make relating to our estimated and projected earnings, revenues, costs, expenditures, cash flows, growth rates, and financial results, our plans and objectives for future operations, growth, initiatives, or strategies, or the expected outcome or impact of pending or threatened litigation are forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those that we expected, including:

•possible inability to successfully implement our long-term strategic plans, including Project Restoration;

•possible declines in our comparable sales;

•possible inability to maintain and enhance our brands;

•possible failure of our multi-channel distribution model;

•possible adverse changes in general economic conditions and their impact on consumer confidence and consumer spending, including political unrest, social unrest, acts of war and terrorism, and other related matters;

•possible inability to predict and respond in a timely manner to changes in consumer demand;

•possible inability to successfully open new stores and/or operate current stores as planned;

•possible loss of key management or design associates or inability to attract and retain the talent required for our business;

•possible data security or privacy breaches or disruptions in our computer systems or websites;

•possible disruptions in our supply chain;

•possible new or increased tariffs on our products and increases in inbound and outbound freight expense that could lead to increased product costs and lower profit margins; and

•public health pandemics and actions by governmental or other actors regarding containment.

We derive many of our forward-looking statements from our operating plans and forecasts, which are based upon detailed assumptions. While we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, we caution that it is difficult to predict the impact of known factors, and it is impossible for us to anticipate all factors that could affect our actual results.

For a discussion of the above described risks and uncertainties and other risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in our forward-looking statements, please refer to “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 1, 2025, as well as in Item 1A herein.

We caution you that the risks and uncertainties identified by us may not be all of the factors that are important to you. Furthermore, the forward-looking statements included in this report are made only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by law.

1.Description of the Company and Basis of Presentation

The term “Company” refers to Vera Bradley, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, except where the context requires otherwise or where otherwise indicated.

Vera Bradley is a leading designer of women’s handbags, luggage and travel items, fashion and home accessories, and unique gifts. Founded in 1982 by friends Barbara Bradley Baekgaard and Patricia R. Miller, the brand’s innovative designs, iconic patterns, and brilliant colors continue to inspire and connect women.

On March 11, 2025, the Company entered into an Interest Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) to sell one hundred percent (100%) of Creative Genius, Inc., (“Creative Genius”) which operates under the name Pura Vida Bracelets. The sale consummated on March 31, 2025. As a result, the operations of Pura Vida have been classified as discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements in accordance with ASC 205-20, Discontinued Operations. Prior period amounts have been retrospectively adjusted to conform to the current period presentation. Unless otherwise specified, disclosures in these condensed consolidated financial statements reflect continuing operations only. Certain prior period data, primarily related to discontinued operations, have been reclassified in the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements and accompanying notes to conform to the current period presentation.

Following the sale, Pura Vida is no longer included in the Company’s consolidated financial results. Refer to Note 14 for additional information.

The Company has two reportable segments: Vera Bradley Direct (“VB Direct”) and Vera Bradley Indirect (“VB Indirect”). During the quarter ended May 3, 2025, the Company completed the sale of Pura Vida, which was previously considered a reportable segment.

•The VB Direct segment consists of sales of Vera Bradley products through Vera Bradley full-line and outlet stores in the United States; e-commerce sites (verabradley.com, outlet.verabradley.com, and international.verabradley.com); and the Vera Bradley annual outlet sale in Fort Wayne, Indiana. As of May 3, 2025, the Company operated 39 full-line stores and 87 outlet stores.

•The VB Indirect segment consists of revenues generated through the distribution of Vera Bradley-branded products to specialty retailers representing approximately 1,200 locations, substantially all of which are located in the United States; key accounts, which include department stores, national accounts, third-party e-commerce sites, and third-party inventory liquidators; and royalties recognized through licensing agreements related to the Vera Bradley brand.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted as permitted by such rules and regulations. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 1, 2025, filed with the SEC.

The interim financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the results for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. The results of operations for the thirteen weeks ended May 3, 2025, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year due to, in part, seasonal fluctuations in the business and the uncertainty of macroeconomic factors on future periods, including inflation and other related matters.

Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The Company has eliminated intercompany balances and transactions in consolidation.

During the quarter ended May 3, 2025, the Company completed the sale of its wholly owned subsidiary, Creative Genius, also referred to as Pura Vida. As a result, the operations of Pura Vida have been classified as discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements in accordance with ASC 205-20. Prior period amounts have been retrospectively adjusted to conform to the current period presentation.

Fiscal Periods

The Company’s fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to January 31. References to the fiscal quarters ended May 3, 2025 and May 4, 2024 refer to the thirteen week periods ended on those dates.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, "Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures". This ASU establishes new income tax disclosure requirements in addition to modifying and eliminating certain existing requirements. Under the new guidance, entities must consistently categorize and provide greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation. They must also further disaggregate income taxes paid. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 (the Company's fiscal year 2026), with retrospective application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact on its disclosures; however, adoption will not impact our consolidated financial statements.

In November, 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ASU 2024-03, "Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses". The ASU requires financial statement footnote disclosure of specified information about certain costs and expenses, including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 (the Company’s fiscal year 2028) and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027 (interim periods for the Company’s fiscal year 2029). Public business entities are required to apply the guidance prospectively, however, retrospective application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU, but expects the impact to be limited to financial statement footnote disclosures.

accrued liabilities on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Substantially all contract liabilities are recognized within one year. The Company did not have contract assets as of May 3, 2025 and February 1, 2025.

The balance for accounts receivable from contracts with customers, net of allowances, as of May 3, 2025 and February 1, 2025, was $13.9 million and $13.3 million, respectively, which is recognized within accounts receivable, net, on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The provision for doubtful accounts was $0.8 million as of May 3, 2025 and February 1, 2025, respectively. The provision for doubtful accounts is based upon the likelihood of default expected during the life of the receivable.

Remaining Performance Obligations

The Company does not have remaining performance obligations in excess of one year or contracts that it does not have the right to invoice as of May 3, 2025.

3.Leases

Discount Rate

The weighted-average discount rate as of May 3, 2025, and May 4, 2024 was 5.0% and 4.9%, respectively. The discount rate is not readily determinable in the lease; therefore, the Company estimated the incremental borrowing rate, at the commencement date of each lease, which is the rate of interest it would have to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term with similar payments.

Leases Not Yet Commenced

As of May 3, 2025, there were no executed leases in which the Company did not have control of the underlying asset.

Amounts Recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

The following lease expense is recorded within cost of sales for the Asia sourcing office and certain equipment leases and within selling, general, and administrative expenses for all other leases, including retail store leases, in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the thirteen weeks ended May 3, 2025 and May 4, 2024 (in thousands):

4.Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, plus the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method. Dilutive potential common shares represent outstanding restricted stock units.

The components of basic and diluted earnings per share were as follows (in thousands, except per share data):


	Thirteen Weeks Ended
		May 3, 2025		May 4, 2024
Numerator:
Net loss from continuing operations		$	(18,260)	$	(7,604)
Loss from discontinued operations, net of income tax		(15,200)		(517)

Net loss		$	(33,460)	$	(8,121)

Dilutive effect of stock-based awards		—		—
Weighted-average number of common shares (diluted)		27,773		30,660

Basic net loss per share:
Continuing operations		$	(0.66)	$	(0.25)
Discontinued operations		$	(0.54)	$	(0.01)
Basic net loss per share		$	(1.20)	$	(0.26)

5.Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified using the following hierarchy, which is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation as of the measurement date:

•Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

•Level 2 – Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly;

•Level 3 – Unobservable inputs based on the Company’s own assumptions.

The classification of fair value measurements within the hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the measurement.

The carrying amounts reflected on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other current assets, and accounts payable as of May 3, 2025 and February 1, 2025, approximated their fair values.

The following table details the fair value measurements of the Company's instruments as of May 3, 2025 and February 1, 2025 (in thousands):


	Level 1				Level 2				Level 3
	May 3, 2025		February 1, 2025		May 3, 2025		February 1, 2025		May 3, 2025		February 1, 2025
Cash equivalents(1)	$	—	$	15,000	$	—	$	—	$	—	$	—












Contingent consideration related to sale of business(2)	—		—		—		—		2,552		—

(1) Cash equivalents primarily represent a money market fund that has a maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase. Due to the short maturity, the Company believes the carrying value approximates fair value.
(2) Established during the thirteen weeks ended May 3, 2025. Refer to Note 14 herein for additional information.

The Company assesses potential impairments to its long-lived assets, which includes property, plant, and equipment and lease right-of-use assets, on a quarterly basis or whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Store-level assets and right-of-use assets are grouped at the individual store-level for the purpose of the impairment assessment. Recoverability of an asset group is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset group to its estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset group. If the carrying amount of the asset group exceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset group exceeds the fair value of the asset group. The fair value of the store assets is determined using the discounted future cash flow method of anticipated cash flows through the store’s lease-end date using fair value measurement inputs classified as Level 3. The fair value of right-of-use assets is estimated using market comparative information for similar properties. Level 3 inputs are derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. The Company recorded $1.0 million for store property, plant, and equipment charges for the thirteen weeks ended May 3, 2025. These charges are included in selling, general, and administrative ("SG&A") expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and in impairment charges in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. There were no long-lived asset impairment charges for the thirteen weeks ended May 4, 2024.

The discounted cash flow models used to estimate the applicable fair values involve numerous estimates and assumptions that are highly subjective. Changes to these estimates and assumptions could materially impact the fair value estimates. The estimates and assumptions critical to the overall fair value estimates include: (1) estimated future cash flow generated at the store level; (2) discount rates used to derive the present value factors used in determining the fair values; and (3) market rentals at the retail store. These and other estimates and assumptions are impacted by economic conditions and our expectations and may change in the future based on period-specific facts and circumstances. If economic conditions were to deteriorate, future impairment charges may be required which may be material.

On a nonrecurring basis, assets recognized or disclosed at fair value on the consolidated financial statements include items such as property, plant, and equipment, including leasehold improvements, and operating lease assets.

6.Debt

The Credit Agreement provides for certain credit facilities to VBD in an aggregate principal amount not to initially exceed the lesser of $75.0 million or the amount of borrowing availability determined in accordance with a borrowing base of certain assets. Any proceeds of the credit facilities will be used to finance general corporate purposes of VBD and its subsidiaries, including but not limited to Vera Bradley International, LLC, Vera Bradley Sales, LLC, and Creative Genius, LLC (collectively, the “Named Subsidiaries”). The Credit Agreement also contains an option for VBD to arrange with lenders to increase the aggregate principal amount by up to $50.0 million. The Fourth Amendment allowed for the sale of Creative Genius and irrevocably released Creative Genius from the loan documents upon completion of the sale.

Amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a per annum rate equal to (i) for CBFR borrowings (including swingline loans), the CB Floating Rate, where the CB Floating Rate is the greater of the prime rate or 2.5%, plus the Applicable Rate, where the Applicable Rate is a percentage spread ranging from -1.25% to -1.50%, (ii) for each Term Benchmark Borrowing, the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate, where the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate is the Term SOFR rate for such interest period plus 0.10% for the interest period in effect for such borrowing, plus the Applicable Rate, where the Applicable Rate is a percentage ranging from 1.25% to 1.50%, or (iii) for RFR Loans, the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR Rate, where the adjusted Daily Simple SOFR Rate is equal to the Daily Simple SOFR plus 0.10%, plus the Applicable Rate, where the Applicable Rate is a percentage ranging from 1.25% to 1.50% The applicable CB Floating Rate, Adjusted Term SOFR Rate, Term SOFR Rate, Daily Simple SOFR, and Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR shall be determined by the administrative agent. The Credit Agreement also requires VBD to pay a commitment fee for the unused portion of the revolving facility of up to 0.30% per annum.

VBD’s obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by the Company and the Named Subsidiaries. The obligations of VBD under the Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of the respective assets of VBD, the Company, and the Named Subsidiaries and are further secured by the equity interests in VBD and the Named Subsidiaries.

The Credit Agreement contains various affirmative and negative covenants, including restrictions on the Company's ability to incur debt or liens; engage in mergers or consolidations; make certain investments, acquisitions, loans, and advances; sell assets; enter into certain swap agreements; pay dividends or make distributions or make other restricted payments; engage in certain transactions with affiliates; and amend, modify, or waive any of its rights related to subordinated indebtedness and certain charter and other organizational, governing, and material agreements. The Company may avoid certain of such restrictions by meeting payment conditions defined in the Credit Agreement.

The Credit Agreement also requires the loan parties, as defined in the Credit Agreement, to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.00 to 1.00 during periods when borrowing availability is less than the greater of (A) $25.0 million, and (B) 12.5% of the lesser of (i) the aggregate revolving commitment, and (ii) the borrowing base. The fixed charge coverage ratio, availability, aggregate revolving commitment, and the borrowing base are further defined in the Credit Agreement.

The Credit Agreement contains customary events of default, including, among other things: (i) the failure to pay any principal, interest, or other fees under the Credit Agreement; (ii) the making of any materially incorrect representation or warranty; (iii) the failure to observe or perform any covenant, condition, or agreement in the Credit Agreement or related agreements; (iv) a cross default with respect to other material indebtedness; (v) bankruptcy and insolvency events; (vi) unsatisfied material final judgments; (vii) Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”) events that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect; and (viii) a change in control (as defined in the Credit Agreement).

The Credit Agreement matures in May 2028.

As of May 3, 2025 and February 1, 2025, the Company had no borrowings outstanding and availability of $75.0 million under the Credit Agreement.

7.Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes for interim periods is based on an estimate of the annual effective tax rate adjusted to reflect the impact of discrete items. Management judgment is required in projecting ordinary income to estimate the Company’s annual effective tax rate.

The effective tax rate for the thirteen weeks ended May 3, 2025, was (2.3)%, compared to 25.1% for the thirteen weeks ended May 4, 2024. The change in year-over-year effective tax rate was primarily attributable to a full valuation allowance recorded against the Company's net deferred tax assets for the fiscal year ended February 1, 2025.

Refer to Note 14 herein for the information regarding the income tax impact associated with the sale of Pura Vida on March 31, 2025.

8.Stock-Based Compensation

The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense, for its awards of restricted stock units, in an amount equal to the fair market value of the underlying stock on the grant date of the respective award.

The Company reserved 6,000,000 shares of common stock for issuance or transfer under the 2020 Equity and Incentive Plan, as amended, which allows for grants of restricted stock units, as well as other equity awards. The Company maintains the 2010 Equity and Incentive Plan for awards granted prior to the effectiveness of the 2020 Equity and Incentive Plan.

Awards of Restricted Stock Units

During the thirteen weeks ended May 3, 2025, the Company granted 1,503,502 time-based and performance-based restricted stock units with an aggregate fair value of $3.2 million to certain employees and non-employee directors under the 2020 Equity and Incentive Plan compared to 741,035 time-based and performance-based restricted stock units with an aggregate fair value of $5.0 million in the same period of the prior year.

Time-based restricted stock units vest and settle in shares of the Company’s common stock, on a one-for-one basis, with most vesting in equal installments on each of the first three anniversaries of the grant date. Restricted stock units issued to non-employee directors vest after a one-year period from the grant date. The Company recognizes the expense relating to these units, net of estimated forfeitures, on a straight-line basis over the vesting period.

Performance-based restricted stock units vest upon the completion of a three-year period of time (cliff vesting), subject to the employee’s continuing employment throughout and the Company’s achievement of annual earnings per share targets, or other Company performance targets, during the three-year performance period. The Company recognizes the expense relating to these units, net of estimated forfeitures, based on the probable outcome of achievement of the financial targets, on a straight-line basis over three years.

As of May 3, 2025, there was $5.0 million of total unrecognized compensation cost, net of estimated forfeitures, related to nonvested restricted stock units. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.0 years, subject to meeting performance conditions.

9.Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is subject to various claims and contingencies arising in the normal course of business, including those relating to product liability, legal claims, employee benefits, environmental issues, and other matters. Management believes that at this time it is not probable that any of these claims will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. However, the outcomes of legal proceedings and claims brought against the Company are subject to uncertainty, and future developments could cause these actions or claims, individually or in aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows of a particular reporting period.

The Company is subject to other legal proceedings from time to time in the ordinary course of business but does not believe any of these such claims would have a material adverse impact on the Company at this time.

10.Common Stock

In December 2021, the Company's board of directors approved a share repurchase plan (the “2021 Share Repurchase Program”) which authorized Company management to utilize up to $50.0 million of available cash for repurchases of shares of the Company's common stock. The 2021 Share Repurchase Program went into effect beginning December 13, 2021 and expired in December 2024.

During the fourth quarter fiscal 2025, the Company's board of directors approved a new share repurchase plan (the “2024 Share Repurchase Program”) which authorized Company management to utilize up to $30.0 million of available cash for repurchases of shares of the Company's common stock. The 2024 Share Repurchase Program went into effect beginning December 14, 2024 and expires in December 2027. The Company does not currently plan to purchase under the 2024 Share Repurchase Program, but anticipates utilizing it in the future depending on the Company's cash position.

As of May 3, 2025, there was $30.0 million remaining available to repurchase shares of the Company's common stock under the 2024 Share Repurchase Program.

As of May 3, 2025, the Company held as treasury shares 15,834,579 shares of its common stock at an average price of $9.90 per share, excluding commissions, for an aggregate carrying amount of $156.8 million. The Company’s treasury shares may be issued under the 2010 Equity and Incentive Plan (with respect to outstanding awards under that plan), under the 2020 Equity and Incentive Plan, or for other corporate purposes.

11.Cloud Computing Arrangements

The Company capitalizes implementation costs associated with its Cloud Computing Arrangements (“CCA”) consistent with costs capitalized for internal-use software. The CCA costs are amortized over the term of the related hosting agreement, taking into consideration renewal options, if any. The renewal period is included in the amortization period if determined that the option is reasonably certain to be exercised. The amortization expense is recorded within selling, general, and administrative expenses in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, which is within the same line item as the related hosting fees. The balance of the unamortized CCA implementation costs totaled $0.4 million and $0.6 million as of May 3, 2025 and February 1, 2025, respectively. Of this total, $0.2 million and $0.4 million was recorded within prepaid expenses and other current assets and $0.2 million was recorded within other assets on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of May 3, 2025 and February 1, 2025, respectively. The CCA implementation costs are recorded within operating activities in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

13.Segment Reporting

The Company has two operating segments, which are also its reportable segments: VB Direct and VB Indirect. During the quarter ended May 3, 2025, the Company completed the sale of its wholly owned subsidiary, Creative Genius, also referred to as Pura Vida and was the Company's third reporting segment. Refer to Note 14 for additional information. These operating segments are components of the Company for which separate financial information is available and for which operating results are evaluated on a regular basis by the chief operating decision maker ("CODM") in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing the performance of the segments. The Company's CODM is our Chief Executive Officer.

The VB Direct segment includes Vera Bradley full-line and outlet stores; e-commerce sites (verabradley.com, outlet.verabradley.com, and international.verabradley.com); and the Vera Bradley annual outlet sale. Revenues generated from this segment are driven through the sale of Vera Bradley-branded products from Vera Bradley to end consumers.

The VB Indirect segment represents revenues generated through the distribution of Vera Bradley-branded products to specialty retailers representing approximately 1,200 locations, substantially all of which are located in the United States; key accounts, which include department stores, national accounts, third-party e-commerce sites, and third-party inventory liquidators; and royalties recognized through licensing agreements related to the Vera Bradley brand.

Corporate costs represent the Company’s administrative expenses, which include, but are not limited to: human resources, legal, finance, information technology, design, product development, merchandising, corporate-level marketing and advertising, and various other corporate-level-activity-related expenses not directly attributable to a reportable segment. All intercompany-related activities are eliminated in consolidation and are excluded from the segment reporting.

The CODM’s primary or key performance indicator for evaluating segment operating results is operating income. The CODM uses operating income for each segment predominantly in the annual budget and forecasting process. The CODM considers budget-to-actual variances on a quarterly basis for this key performance operating measure when making decisions about the allocation of operating and capital resources to each segment. The CODM also uses segment operating income to assess the performance of each segment by comparing the results of each segment with one another and in determining the compensation of certain employees. The CODM reviews cost of sales and SG&A expense on a consolidated basis.

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 2. The Company does not report depreciation or amortization expense, total assets, or capital expenditures by segment as such information is neither used by management nor accounted for at the segment level.

14.Discontinued Operations

On March 11, 2025, the Company completed the sale of Creative Genius pursuant to an Interest Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) to sell one hundred percent (100%) of Creative Genius, which operates under the name Pura Vida Bracelets. The sale consummated on March 31, 2025. In connection with the transaction, the Company received total consideration of $3.5 million, consisting of a combination of cash consideration, subject to net working capital and net cash adjustments as well as contingent consideration.

At closing, the Company received cash proceeds of $0.9 million. In addition, the Company is entitled to receive contingent consideration with an estimated fair value of $2.5 million, based on the present value of expected future payments. The contingent consideration is calculated as 5% of total sales generated by the divested business, as operated by the buyer, net of customary shipping costs, during the earn-out period specified in the agreement. The earn-out period and related terms are consistent with customary provisions for transactions of this nature. The fair value of the contingent consideration was determined using a probability-weighted discounted cash flow analysis based on internal projections of the buyer’s expected future sales. The fair value measurement is classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy due to the use of unobservable inputs.

The Company will assess changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration at each reporting date, with any adjustments recognized in earnings in the period in which such changes are identified.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion summarizes the significant factors affecting the condensed consolidated operating results, financial condition, liquidity, and cash flows of the Company as of and for the thirteen weeks ended May 3, 2025 and May 4, 2024. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 1, 2025, and our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report. The results of operations for the thirteen weeks ended May 3, 2025, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year.

Strategic Progress, Macroeconomic Factors, and Other Factors Impacting our Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Strategic Progress. We continued to advance our long-term strategic initiative, Project Restoration, aimed at transforming our business model and brand positioning. As an organization, we remain focused on disciplined expense management and have fostered a culture centered on financial responsibility. We’ve taken further steps to streamline our organizational structure, right-size our leadership team, and align our cost base with the scale of our business efforts that are especially important in today’s challenging macroeconomic environment and critical to achieving our long-term goals.

In parallel, we’ve invested in key capabilities such as customer data science, business analytics, and pricing optimization. These investments enhance our ability to gather insights, analyze trends, and make data-driven decisions to operate more efficiently. While we remain confident in our strategic path, we are continuously refining our approach based on sales performance and customer feedback.

Macroeconomic and Other Factors. We continue to closely monitor the dynamic economic landscape and are actively managing the impact of elevated tariff costs. Ongoing inflationary pressures and related macroeconomic factors have continued to affect consumer discretionary spending. As a result, our Vera Bradley outlet and full-line stores continue to experience softer performance during the first quarter of fiscal 2026. We remain focused on executing our strategic initiatives and adapting to current market conditions to position the business for long-term growth.

Recent Transactions

We completed the sale of Pura Vida on March 31, 2025. See Note 14 to the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements herein for additional information. The loss on sale was presented as part of results of the discontinued operations. We have reflected the results of operations of the Pura Vida business as discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. This business was historically presented as its own reporting unit.

How We Assess the Performance of Our Business

In assessing the performance of our business, we consider a variety of performance and financial measures.

Net Revenues

Net revenues reflect sales of our merchandise and revenue from distribution and shipping and handling fees, less returns and discounts. Revenues for the VB Direct segment reflect sales through Vera Bradley full-line and outlet stores; e-commerce sites (verabradley.com, outlet.verabradley.com, and international.verabradley.com); and the Vera Bradley annual outlet sale. Revenues for the VB Indirect segment reflect sales of Vera Bradley-branded products to specialty retail partners; key accounts consisting of department stores, national accounts, third-party e-commerce sites, and third-party inventory liquidators; and royalties recognized through licensing agreements related to the Vera Bradley brand.

Table of Contents

Comparable Sales

Comparable sales are calculated based upon our stores that have been open for at least 12 full fiscal months and net revenues from our Vera Bradley e-commerce operations. Remodeled stores are included in both comparable sales and comparable store sales unless the store was closed for more than one week of the current or comparable prior period, in which case the non-comparable temporary closure periods are not included, or the remodel resulted in a significant change in square footage. Some of our competitors and other retailers calculate comparable or “same store” sales differently than we do. As a result, data in this report regarding our comparable sales and comparable store sales may not be comparable to similar data made available by other companies. Non-comparable sales include sales from stores not included in comparable sales or comparable store sales.

Measuring the change in year-over-year comparable sales allows us and our investors to evaluate how our store base and e-commerce operations are performing. Various factors affect our comparable sales, including:

•Overall economic trends;

•Consumer preferences and fashion trends;

•Competition;

•The timing of our releases of new patterns and collections;

•Changes in our product mix;

•Pricing, as well as timing and level of promotions;

•Amount of store, mall, and e-commerce traffic;

•The level of customer service that we provide in stores and to our on-line customers;

•Our ability to source and distribute products efficiently;

•The number of stores we open and close in any period; and

•The timing and success of promotional and marketing efforts.

Gross Profit

Gross profit is equal to our net revenues less our cost of sales. Cost of sales includes the direct cost of purchased merchandise, distribution center costs, operations overhead, duties, all inbound freight costs incurred, and inventory adjustments, if any. The components of our reported cost of sales may not be comparable to those of other retail and wholesale companies.

Gross profit can be impacted by changes in volume; fluctuations in sales price; inbound freight and other logistical costs; operational efficiencies, such as leveraging of fixed costs; promotional activities, including free shipping; commodity prices, such as for cotton; tariffs; and labor costs.

Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses (“SG&A”)

SG&A expenses include selling; advertising, marketing, and product development; and administrative expenses. Selling expenses include:

•VB Direct business expenses, such as store expenses, employee compensation, and store occupancy and supply costs;

•VB Indirect business expenses consisting primarily of employee compensation and other expenses associated with sales to Indirect retailers; and

Advertising, marketing, and product development expenses include employee compensation, media costs, creative production expenses, marketing agency fees, new product design costs, public relations expenses, and market research expenses. Administrative expenses include employee compensation for corporate functions, corporate headquarters occupancy costs, consulting and software expenses, and charitable donations, as well as severance charges and consulting fees associated with cost savings initiatives disclosed in Note 12 to the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements herein.

Thirteen Weeks Ended May 3, 2025, Compared to Thirteen Weeks Ended May 4, 2024

Net Revenues

For the thirteen weeks ended May 3, 2025, net revenues decreased $16.2 million, or 24.0%, to $51.7 million, from $67.9 million in the comparable prior-year period.

VB Direct. For the thirteen weeks ended May 3, 2025, net revenues in the VB Direct segment decreased $13.3 million, or 23.6%, to $43.1 million, from $56.4 million in the comparable prior-year period. Vera Bradley comparable sales decreased 25.0%, which includes a 34.3% decrease in comparable store sales as well as a decrease in e-commerce sales of 11.7%. In

Table of Contents

addition, non-comparable revenue decreased $0.3 million. The decrease in comparable sales and comparable store sales was primarily due to reduced traffic, conversion, and units sold in the full-line, outlet, and e-commerce channels.

VB Indirect. For the thirteen weeks ended May 3, 2025, net revenues in the VB Indirect segment decreased $3.0 million, or 25.6%, to $8.6 million, from $11.5 million in the comparable prior-year period. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in key account orders, specialty account orders, and liquidation sales.

Gross Profit

For the thirteen weeks ended May 3, 2025, gross profit decreased $11.2 million, or 33.1%, to $22.8 million, from $34.0 million in the comparable prior-year period. As a percentage of net revenues, gross profit decreased to 44.1% for the thirteen weeks ended May 3, 2025, from 50.1% in the comparable prior-year period. Current year gross margin was negatively impacted by channel mix shifts from higher to lower margin channels and increased incremental shipping costs from a higher mix of digital channels.

Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses

For the thirteen weeks ended May 3, 2025, SG&A expenses decreased $4.3 million, or 9.5%, to $40.8 million, from $45.1 million in the comparable prior-year period. As a percentage of net revenues, SG&A expenses increased to 79.0% for the thirteen weeks ended May 3, 2025, from 66.4% in the comparable prior-year period. For the thirteen weeks ended May 3, 2025, consolidated SG&A expenses decreased primarily due to a $4.0 million reduction in employee-related costs, including reduced headcount and lower variable compensation; a $1.5 million reduction in advertising costs resulting from sales decreases as described above; and $0.1 million reduction in net other expenses. These decreases were partially offset by $1.0 million of property, plant, and equipment impairment charges in the current year period.

Other Income, Net

For the thirteen weeks ended May 3, 2025, net other income decreased $0.2 million to $0.2 million, from $0.4 million in the comparable prior-year period. The decrease in net other income was primarily due to a legal settlement that occurred in the prior year period.

Operating Loss from Continuing Operations

For the thirteen weeks ended May 3, 2025, operating loss from continuing operations increased $7.3 million, or 68.2%, to $(17.9) million, from $(10.6) million in the comparable prior-year period. As a percentage of net revenues, operating loss from continuing operations was (34.6)% and (15.6)% for the thirteen weeks ended May 3, 2025 and May 4, 2024, respectively. Operating loss from continuing operations increased due to the factors described in the captions above.

VB Direct. For the thirteen weeks ended May 3, 2025, there was an operating loss in the VB Direct segment of $(5.5) million, a $9.5 million increase, or 238.6%, from operating income of $4.0 million in the comparable prior-year period. As a percentage of VB Direct segment net revenues, operating (loss) income in the VB Direct segment was (12.8)% and 7.1% for the thirteen weeks ended May 3, 2025 and May 4, 2024, respectively. The increase in operating (loss) income as a percentage of VB Direct segment net revenues was primarily due to a decrease in gross margin as a percentage of net revenues as described above, SG&A expense deleverage associated with decreased sales, as well as property, plant, and equipment impairment charges of $1.0 million.

VB Indirect. For the thirteen weeks ended May 3, 2025, operating income in the VB Indirect segment decreased $1.8 million, or 48.2%, to $2.0 million from $3.8 million in the comparable prior-year period. As a percentage of VB Indirect segment net revenues, operating income in the VB Indirect segment was 23.1% and 33.2% for the thirteen weeks ended May 3, 2025 and May 4, 2024, respectively. The decrease in operating income as a percentage of VB Indirect segment net revenues was due to a decrease in gross margin as a percentage of net revenues as well as SG&A expense deleverage associated with decreased sales.

Corporate Unallocated. For the thirteen weeks ended May 3, 2025, unallocated expenses decreased $4.1 million, or 22.4%, to $14.3 million from $18.4 million in the comparable prior-year period. The decrease in unallocated expenses was primarily due to a $2.0 million reduction in employee-related costs, including reduced headcount and lower variable compensation; $1.8 million reduction in advertising spend; $0.3 million reduction in net other expenses.

Net Loss from Continuing Operations

For the thirteen weeks ended May 3, 2025, there was a net loss from continuing operations of $(18.3) million, a $10.7 million increase, from $(7.6) million in the comparable prior-year period due to the factors described in the captions above.

Net Loss from Discontinued Operations

For the thirteen weeks ended May 3, 2025, there was a net loss from discontinued operations of $(15.2) million, a $14.7 million increase, from $(0.5) million in the comparable prior-year period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash on hand and cash equivalents, as well as cash flow from operations. We also have access to additional liquidity, if needed, through borrowings under our $75.0 million asset-based revolving credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”). There was no debt outstanding as of May 3, 2025. Historically, our primary cash needs have been for merchandise inventories; payroll; store rent; capital expenditures associated with operational equipment, buildings, information technology, and opening new stores; and share repurchases. The most significant components of our working capital are cash and cash equivalents, merchandise inventories, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and other current liabilities.

We believe that cash on hand and cash equivalents, cash flows from operating activities, and the availability of borrowings under our Credit Agreement or other financing arrangements will be sufficient to meet working capital requirements and anticipated capital expenditures, and other strategic uses of cash, if any, for the foreseeable future.

Cash Flow Analysis

A summary of operating, investing, and financing activities is shown in the following table (in thousands):


	Thirteen Weeks Ended
	May 3, 2025		May 4, 2024
Net cash used in operating activities	$	(17,902)	$	(14,549)
Net cash used in investing activities	(968)		(863)
Net cash used in financing activities	(171)		(6,704)

Net Cash Used in Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities consists primarily of net loss adjusted for non-cash items, including depreciation, amortization, impairment charges, deferred taxes, and stock-based compensation; and the effect of changes in assets and liabilities.

Net cash used in operating activities for the thirteen weeks ended May 3, 2025 was $17.9 million compared to $14.5 million for the thirteen weeks ended May 4, 2024. The increase in cash used in operating activities was primarily related to a net loss of $(33.5) million, a $25.4 million increase, from the comparable prior-year period, partially offset by a loss on sale of business of $15.2 million, and a change in assets and liabilities of $6.1 million.

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities

Investing activities consist primarily of investments and capital expenditures related to new store openings, buildings, operational equipment, and information technology investments.

Table of Contents

Net cash used in investing activities was $1.0 million for the thirteen weeks ended May 3, 2025 compared to $0.9 million for the thirteen weeks ended May 4, 2024. The decrease in cash used in investing activities was a result of a decrease in property, plant, and equipment spending of $1.0 million primarily as a result of Project Restoration initiatives in the prior-year period, partially offset by $0.9 million proceeds from the sale of Pura Vida.

Net Cash Used in Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $0.2 million for the thirteen weeks ended May 3, 2025 compared to $6.7 million for the thirteen weeks ended May 4, 2024. The decrease in cash used in financing activities was primarily due to $6.3 million of common stock repurchases in the prior-year period compared to no common stock repurchases in the current-year period.

Credit Agreement

On September 7, 2018, Vera Bradley Designs, Inc. (“VBD”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into an asset-based revolving Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) among VBD, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and the lenders from time to time party thereto. On March 11, 2025, certain subsidiaries of the Company, JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., as the administrative agent, and lenders from time to time party thereto, entered into a Fourth Amendment (the “Fourth Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement provides for certain credit facilities to VBD in an aggregate principal amount not to initially exceed the lesser of $75.0 million or the amount of borrowing availability determined in accordance with a borrowing base of certain assets. Borrowings under the credit facilities are available to finance general corporate purposes of VBD and its subsidiaries, including but not limited to Vera Bradley International, LLC, Vera Bradley Sales, LLC, and Creative Genius, LLC (collectively, the “Named Subsidiaries”).

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, as well as the related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. A summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies is included in Note 2 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 1, 2025.

Certain accounting policies and estimates of the Company are considered critical, as these policies and estimates are the most important to the depiction of the Company’s consolidated financial statements and require significant, difficult, or complex judgments, often about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Such policies are summarized in the “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 February 1, 2025. There were no significant changes to any of the critical accounting policies and estimates described in the Annual Report as of May 3, 2025.
