In the opinion of management of Destination XL Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (collectively with its subsidiaries, referred to as the “Company”), the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial statements. These financial statements do not include all disclosures associated with annual financial statements and, accordingly, should be read in conjunction with the notes to the Company’s audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the fiscal year ended February 1, 2020 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 19, 2020.

The information set forth in these statements may be subject to normal year-end adjustments. The information reflects all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the Company’s results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the periods indicated. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company’s business historically has been seasonal in nature, and the results of the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

The Company’s fiscal year is a 52- or 53- week period ending on the Saturday closest to January 31. Fiscal 2020 and fiscal 2019 are 52-week periods ending on January 30, 2021 and February 1, 2020, respectively.

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the current outbreak of a novel coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”) as a global pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has had an adverse effect on the Company’s operations, employees, distribution and logistics, its vendors and customers. All of the Company’s store locations were closed temporarily on March 17, 2020. The Company began reopening stores in late April and by the end of June 2020 all retail stores had been reopened. While all of the Company’s stores are open, they are operating with reduced operating hours and it has been and may continue to be necessary to close and re-open stores in response to any ongoing COVID concerns.

In response to the uncertainty that exists relating to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company has taken significant precautionary measures to reduce expenses, preserve liquidity, and mitigate the adverse impact of the pandemic to the Company. The majority of the Company’s workforce was furloughed in March 2020. As store locations were reopened, employees were gradually brought back, however, due to the reduced store traffic and sales, the Company’s field organization has been reduced by 1,078 associates, or 54%, since March 2020. For the safety of its employees, employees at the Company’s headquarters will continue to work from home, where possible, until at least July 2021. For store personnel and roles that require employees to be on-site, such as its distribution center, the Company is providing protective equipment, practicing social distancing and has increased sanitizing standards. The management team (director-level and above) took a temporary salary reduction ranging from 10%-20% during the period April 5, 2020 through August 2, 2020 and the Company’s non-employee directors suspended their second quarter fiscal 2020 compensation.

In March 2020, as a proactive measure, the Company drew $30.0 million under its revolving facility in order to increase the Company’s cash position and preserve financial flexibility. In addition, in April 2020 the Company entered into an amendment to its credit facility to, among other things, increase its borrowing base availability and permit the Company the ability to enter into promissory notes with its merchandise vendors. See Note 3, Debt, for a discussion of the amendment. During the second quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company entered into rent concessions with the majority of its landlords, in the form of rent abatements, rent deferments and, to a lesser extent, lease term extensions. See Note 4, Leases, for more discussion. Further, since early March, the Company has taken proactive steps to manage cash by substantially eliminating capital spend, negotiating deferred payment terms with vendors and, in limited cases, entering into short term notes, reducing operating expenses and cancelling purchase orders for merchandise, where possible.

Subsequent to the end of the third quarter, on November 2, 2020 the Company implemented an additional corporate restructuring to further align its cost structure with the potential continuation of reduced sales levels. The Company eliminated an additional 45 corporate positions, terminated certain service agreements, eliminated certain professional services and reduced its marketing costs. In aggregate, the Company’s corporate workforce has been reduced by 101 positions, or 29%, since March 2020. The Company expects that these additional steps will result in annualized savings of $9.7 million, of which $3.8 million is related to the reduction in corporate payroll. The Company expects to incur an aggregate cash charge in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020 of approximately $0.5

million for employee severance and one-time termination benefits. The Company intends to proceed cautiously and continue to take proactive steps to manage its liquidity.

The Company has three principal operating segments: its stores, direct and wholesale businesses. The Company considers its stores and direct operating segments to be similar in terms of economic characteristics, production processes and operations, and has therefore aggregated them into one reportable segment, retail segment, consistent with its omni-channel business approach. Due to the immateriality of the wholesale segment’s revenues, profits and assets, its operating results are aggregated with the retail segment for both periods.

In fiscal 2018, the Company purchased the rights to the domain name “dxl.com.” The domain name has a carrying value of $1.2 million and is considered an indefinite-lived asset. Due to the significant impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business, the Company performed a qualitative review of the domain name as of May 2, 2020, August 1, 2020 and October 31, 2020, and concluded at each date that it was more likely than not that the intangible asset was not impaired and therefore no quantitative assessment was required. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company will perform a similar qualitative review as part of annual impairment testing.

During the first nine months of fiscal 2020, the Company received extended payment terms with certain of its merchandise vendors, by entering into short-term notes. The short-term notes, totaling $3.5 million, have terms of less than one-year and accrue interest at an annual rate of 4.0%, with payments due monthly. At October 31, 2020, the outstanding balance of the notes was $1.3 million and is included in Accounts Payable on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, requires disclosure of the fair value of certain financial instruments. ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and enhances disclosures about fair value measurements.

The valuation techniques utilized are based upon observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect internal market assumptions. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:

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

Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of assets or liabilities.

The Company utilizes observable market inputs (quoted market prices) when measuring fair value whenever possible.

The fair value of long-term debt is classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. At October 31, 2020, the fair value approximated the carrying amount based upon terms available to the Company for borrowings with similar arrangements and remaining maturities.

The fair value of the “dxl.com” domain name, an indefinite-lived asset, is measured on a non-recurring basis in connection with the Company’s annual impairment test and is classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy. See Intangibles above.

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and short-term borrowings approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.

Other comprehensive income (loss) includes amounts related to foreign currency and pension plans and is reported in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss). Other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassifications from AOCI for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2020 and November 2, 2019, respectively, were as follows:

All share-based payments, including grants of employee stock options and restricted stock, are recognized as an expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations based on their fair values and vesting periods. The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model and requires the input of subjective assumptions. These assumptions include estimating the length of time employees will retain their vested stock options before exercising them (the “expected term”), the estimated volatility of the Company’s common stock price over the expected term and the number of options that will ultimately not complete their vesting requirements (“forfeitures”). The Company reviews its valuation assumptions at each grant date and, as a result, is likely to change its valuation assumptions used to value employee stock-based awards granted in future periods. The values derived from using the Black-Scholes model are recognized as an expense over the vesting period, net of estimated forfeitures. The estimation of stock-based awards that will ultimately vest requires judgment. Actual results and future changes in estimates may differ from the Company’s current estimates.

The fair value of each stock option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model based on the assumptions in the table below as it relates to stock options granted during the first nine months of fiscal 2020. There were no grants of stock options during the first nine months of fiscal 2019.

The Company has outstanding performance stock units (PSUs) with a market condition. The respective grant-date fair value and derived service periods assigned to the PSUs were determined using a Monte Carlo model. The valuation included assumptions with respect to the Company’s historical volatility, risk-free rate and cost of equity.

The Company reviews its long-lived assets for events or changes in circumstances that might indicate the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. The Company assesses the recoverability of the assets by determining whether the carrying value of such assets over their respective remaining lives can be recovered through projected undiscounted future cash flows. The amount of impairment, if any, is measured based on projected discounted future cash flows using a discount rate reflecting the Company’s average cost of funds.

As a result of the significant impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business during the first quarter of fiscal 2020 and the continued uncertainty, the Company reassessed the recoverability of the carrying value for its long-lived assets as of May 2, 2020, assuming that its stores would gradually open throughout the second quarter of fiscal 2020 but that consumer retail spending will remain substantially curtailed for a period of time. Due to uncertainty around the duration and extent of the pandemic’s impact on future cash flows, the Company’s projections were based on multiple probability-weighted scenarios. Based on the results of that assessment, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $16.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2020. The impairment charge included approximately $12.5 million for the write-down of certain right-of-use assets and $3.8 million for the write-down of property and equipment, related to stores where the carrying value exceeded fair value.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company recorded a $1.2 million non-cash gain on the reduction of its operating lease liability in connection with its decision to close three retail stores, which resulted in a revaluation of the lease liability. Approximately $1.1 million of this gain related to two leases where the right-of-use assets had previously been impaired and, therefore, is included as a reduction in the impairment charge for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2020. The remaining gain of $0.1 million is included as an offset to store occupancy costs.

There was no material impairment of long-lived assets in the first nine months of fiscal 2019.

The Company adopted ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 on a modified retrospective basis and applied the new standard to all leases through a cumulative-effect adjustment to beginning accumulated deficit.

Under ASC 842, the Company determines if an arrangement contains a lease at the inception of a contract. Right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of the remaining future minimum lease payments, initial direct costs and any lease incentives are included in the value of those right-of use assets. As the interest rate implicit in the Company’s leases is not readily determinable, the Company

utilizes its incremental borrowing rate, based on information available at the lease measurement date to determine the present value of future payments. The Company elected the lessee non-lease component separation practical expedient, which permits the Company to not separate non-lease components from the lease components to which they relate. The Company also made an accounting policy election that the recognition requirement of ASC 842 will not be applied to certain, if any, non-store leases, with a term of 12 months or less, recognizing those lease payments on a straight-line basis over the lease term. At October 31, 2020, the Company had no short-term leases.

The Company’s store leases typically contain options that permit renewals for additional periods of up to five years each. In general, for store leases with an initial term of 10 years or more, the options to extend are not considered reasonably certain at lease commencement. For stores leases with an initial term of 5 years, the Company evaluates each lease independently and, only when the Company considers it reasonably certain that it will exercise an option to extend, will the associated payment of that option be included in the measurement of the right-of-use asset and lease liability. Renewal options are not included in the lease term for automobile and equipment leases because they are not considered reasonably certain of being exercised at lease commencement. Renewal options were not considered for the Company’s corporate headquarters and distribution center lease, which was entered into in 2006 and was for an initial 20-year term. At the end of the initial term, the Company will have the opportunity to extend this lease for six additional successive periods of five years.

For store leases, the Company accounts for lease components and non-lease components as a single lease component. Certain store leases may require additional payments based on sales volume, as well as reimbursement for real estate taxes, common area maintenance and insurance, and are expensed as incurred as variable lease costs. Other store leases contain one periodic fixed lease payment that includes real estate taxes, common area maintenance and insurance. These fixed payments are considered part of the lease payment and included in the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. Tenant allowances are included as an offset to the right-of-use asset and amortized as reductions to rent expense over the associated lease term.

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326) — Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” This guidance amends several aspects of the measurement of credit losses on financial instruments, including trade receivables. Topic 326 replaces the existing incurred credit loss model with an impairment model (known as the current expected credit loss ("CECL") model), which is based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. The amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company adopted this standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 and it did not have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement.” This guidance modifies the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements in Topic 820 by removing disclosures regarding transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, by modifying the measurement uncertainty disclosure, and by requiring additional disclosures for Level 3 fair value measurements, among others. The Company adopted this standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 with new disclosures adopted on a prospective basis. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.” This standard simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC 740, Income Taxes, while also clarifying and amending existing guidance, including interim-period accounting for enacted changes in tax law. This standard is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. In the first quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company elected early adoption of ASU 2019-12. The provisions related to intra period tax allocation and interim recognition of enactment of tax laws are being adopted on a prospective basis. The effect of the adoption of ASU 2019-12 was not material to the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.

No new accounting pronouncements, issued or effective during the first nine months of fiscal 2020, have had or are expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
