Discussion of Consolidated Results - Q1'24 vs. Q1'23:
•The 7.7% decrease in consolidated revenues was primarily due to lower lease revenues and fees at the Aaron's Business and lower retail sales at BrandsMart.
•Net loss included restructuring charges of $7.9 million, intangible amortization expense of $2.5 million, stock compensation expense of $2.7 million, and BrandsMart acquisition-related costs of $0.9 million.
•The decrease in net earnings was primarily due to lower lease revenues and fees at the Aaron's Business, lower retail sales at BrandsMart, and higher other operating expenses and write-offs, partially offset by lower personnel costs.
•The 50.4% decrease in adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to the same factors that impacted net earnings.
•The decrease in adjusted free cash flow was primarily due to purchases of lease merchandise inventory to support the growth in new agreement deliveries at the Aaron’s Business and lower earnings at both business segments.
•As of March 31, 2024, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $41.0 million and debt of $212.9 million. The Company also ended the quarter with $211.0 million of availability under its $275.0 million revolving credit facility.

Discussion of Aaron's Business Results - Q1'24 vs. Q1'23:
•The 7.5% decrease in revenues was primarily due to a smaller lease portfolio size and a lower lease renewal rate.
•The lease portfolio size began the quarter down 7.0% compared to the beginning of Q1 2023 and ended the quarter down 4.8% compared to the end of Q1 2023; this improvement was due to 6.8% growth in lease merchandise deliveries.
•The same store lease portfolio size began the quarter down 4.4% compared to the beginning of Q1 2023 and ended the quarter down 1.4% compared to the end of Q1 2023, driven by 10.1% growth in same store lease merchandise deliveries.
•The 30.8% decrease in adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to lower revenues and increased investments in advertising, partially offset by actions taken to lower personnel costs.
•The provision for lease merchandise write-offs as a percentage of lease revenues and fees was 5.9%, a 50 basis point increase primarily due to an increasing mix of e-commerce agreements written into the portfolio; write-offs improved sequentially by 60 basis points compared to Q4 2023.
•E-commerce revenues increased 20.8% and represented 24.0% of lease revenues; e-commerce recurring revenue written into the portfolio increased 94.1%.
•Opened 11 GenNext stores, which included three stores in new markets, ending the quarter with 265 stores; GenNext stores accounted for 33.4% of lease revenues and fees and retail sales.
•Lease originations in GenNext stores, open less than one year, continued growing at a rate of more than 20 percentage points higher than our legacy store average.

Discussion of BrandsMart Results - Q1'24 vs. Q1'23:
•The 8.1% decrease in revenues was primarily due to a 9.4% decrease in comparable sales, driven primarily by ongoing weaker customer traffic and customer trade down to lower priced products across major categories.
•Revenues in Q1 2024 included sales from the new store that recently opened in Augusta, GA.
•E-commerce product sales were 8.7% of product sales, down from 9.2% in the prior year quarter, primarily due to increased trade down to lower priced products and change in category mix.
•The 220 basis point decrease in gross profit margin was primarily due to inventory-related reserve adjustments in Q1 2023.
•The decrease in adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin were due to lower gross profit, higher advertising costs, and operating costs associated with the new store in Augusta, GA, partially offset by actions taken to lower personnel costs.
1.Year-over-year comparisons may vary due to rounding.
2.Comparable sales was calculated by comparing BrandsMart retail and other sales for the comparable period in 2023 for all BrandsMart stores open for the entire 15-month period ended March 31, 2024. Comparable sales includes retail sales generated at BrandsMart stores (including retail sales to BrandsMart Leasing), e-commerce sales initiated on the website or app, warranty revenue, gift card breakage, and sales of merchandise to wholesalers and dealers, as applicable.

USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION | ||||||||||||||
Non-GAAP net earnings, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, adjusted free cash flow, net debt, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are supplemental measures of our performance that are not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). Non-GAAP net earnings and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share for 2024 exclude certain charges including amortization expense resulting from acquisitions, restructuring charges, separation costs associated with the separation and distribution transaction that resulted in our spin-off into a separate publicly-traded company, acquisition-related costs, and debt modification costs associated with the debt amendment entered into on February 23, 2024. Non-GAAP net earnings and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share for 2023 exclude certain charges including amortization expense resulting from acquisitions, restructuring charges and separation costs associated with the separation and distribution transaction that resulted in our spin-off into a separate publicly-traded company and acquisition-related costs, which are tax-effected using estimated tax rates which are commensurate with non-GAAP pre-tax earnings, can be found in the Reconciliation of Net Earnings and Earnings Per Share Assuming Dilution to non-GAAP Net Earnings and non-GAAP Earnings Per Share Assuming Dilution table in this news release.
The EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA figures presented in this news release are calculated as the Company’s earnings before interest expense, depreciation on property, plant and equipment, amortization of intangible assets and income taxes. Adjusted EBITDA also excludes the other adjustments described in the calculation of non-GAAP net earnings above. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue. The amounts for these pre-tax non-GAAP adjustments can be found in the Quarterly EBITDA table in this news release.
Management believes that non-GAAP net earnings, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA provide relevant and useful information, and are widely used by analysts, investors and competitors in our industry as well as by our management in assessing both consolidated and business unit performance.
Non-GAAP net earnings and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share provide management and investors with an understanding of the results from the primary operations of our business by excluding the effects of certain items that generally arise from larger, one-time transactions that are not reflective of the ordinary earnings activity of our operations. This measure may be useful to an investor in evaluating the underlying operating performance of our business.
EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA also provide management and investors with an understanding of one aspect of earnings before the impact of investing and financing charges and income taxes. These measures may be useful to an investor in evaluating our operating performance and liquidity because the measures:
•Are widely used by investors to measure a company’s operating performance without regard to items excluded from the calculation of such measure, which can vary substantially from company to company depending upon accounting methods, book value of assets, capital structure and the method by which assets were acquired, among other factors.
•Are a financial measurement that is used by rating agencies, lenders and other parties to evaluate our creditworthiness.
•Are used by our management for various purposes, including as a measure of performance of our operating entities and as a basis for strategic planning and forecasting.
12
The adjusted free cash flow figures presented in this news release are calculated as the Company’s cash flows provided by operating activities, adjusted for acquisition-related transaction costs and proceeds from real estate transactions, less capital expenditures. Net debt represents total debt less cash and cash equivalents. Management believes that adjusted free cash flow and net debt are important measures of liquidity, provide relevant and useful information, and are widely used by analysts, investors and competitors in our industry as well as by our management team in assessing liquidity.
Non-GAAP financial measures, however, should not be used as a substitute for, or considered superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP, such as the Company’s GAAP basis net earnings and diluted earnings per share, the Company’s GAAP revenues and earnings before income taxes and GAAP cash provided by operating activities, which are also presented in the news release. Further, we caution investors that amounts presented in accordance with our definitions of non-GAAP net earnings, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted free cash flow may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other companies, because not all companies and analysts calculate these measures in the same manner.
