THE CHILDREN’S PLACE REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 2025 RESULTS

ANNOUNCES TRANSFORMATION INITIATIVE

Secaucus, New Jersey – September 5, 2025 – The Children’s Place, Inc. (Nasdaq: PLCE), the largest pure-play children’s specialty retailer in North America with an omni-channel portfolio of brands and an industry-leading digital-first model, today announced financial results for the Company’s second fiscal quarter ended August 2, 2025.

Muhammad Umair, President and Interim Chief Executive Officer said, “This quarter began with operating results that reflected the difficulties we faced in the previous quarter, including unusually cold and wet weather early in the quarter that dampened seasonal demand. However, we ended the quarter with strong momentum for our back-to-school season, and we saw a significant improvement in comparable sales relative to the start of the year. The expansion of licensing, a greater emphasis on fashion-forward assortments, and new partnerships are resonating strongly with our core customer, helping to reinforce our brand promise of delivering amazing fashion at a great value for parents. While we continue to be challenged by the macroeconomic environment, we remain laser-focused on driving profitability in the near and long term.”

Mr. Umair continued, “July marked the first month in the last 18 months in which the Company’s owned and operated direct-to-consumer business generated positive comparative sales growth. We are encouraged by this positive trend shift during the back-to-school period, and we have experienced further increased momentum in underlying demand in August, driven primarily through our stores channel. We have also improved our inventory position with a $78 million reduction from the prior year, as we prioritize working capital management and free cash flow generation. We have been quick to assess and react to the evolving environment, enabling us to make informed business decisions. We have confidence in our long-term plan to revitalize our business and optimize our distribution channels, particularly through investment in new wholesale partnerships. However, our focus remains on long-term investment decisions, and large-scale changes to our business model will still take time. Our progress will continue to be gradual as we reinvest in every way to delight our customers and deliver a great customer experience, by investing in our stores and real estate portfolio, as we return to our true omni-channel retailing identity.”

Company Announces Transformation Initiative

John Szczepanski, Chief Financial Officer said, “We will be implementing an in-depth long-range plan that will better streamline the Company’s operations to yield over $40 million of gross benefits over the next three years. We will be focused on reducing unnecessary corporate office costs, optimizing our distribution network, and rightsizing non-merchandise and third-party spending. In addition, these expense savings will further support our changing business model, including the Company’s strategic shift from closing stores to opening stores instead, as we revitalize the look, feel and experience for our customers when they enter our stores and visit our website, with a focus on improving top-line sales.”

Mr. Szczepanski continued, “Our transformation efforts also include a review of our corporate cost structure, to seek further opportunities to augment our staffing and optimize our corporate payroll, which peaked above $120 million at the beginning of fiscal year 2023 and is planned to be below an $80 million run rate in fiscal year 2026. These transformation efforts are expected to incur certain one-time costs amounting to approximately $5 million to $10 million. The savings from these actions will allow us to reinvest in our business, including the launch of our new loyalty program in the third quarter to drive retention and enhance lifetime value. We are excited and energized by these plans to grow top-line sales and profitability. We plan to further review our long-range plan for the business and other strategic initiatives during the Sidoti Fall Virtual Small Cap Conference, with further information for all investors to be posted to our website following the conference on September 18, 2025.”

Tariff Update

Mr. Umair said, “The tariff environment remains unpredictable. Based on the current environment we are projecting approximately $20 million to $25 million in additional tariff and duty expenses for fiscal year 2025. However, we believe we are well-positioned to manage these impacts, having plans to mitigate approximately 80% of the effects of these tariffs through a range of strategic initiatives. Our diversified sourcing strategy, strong vendor partnerships, and improvements in inbound ocean rates will all contribute to offset the additional tariff and duty expenses. These proactive measures are critical to minimizing the impacts of tariffs on profitability, strengthening our foundation for continued resilience to drive long-term success, and ensuring we can deliver exceptional value with minimal increases in ticket prices for our customers.”

Second Quarter 2025 Results

Net sales decreased $21.7 million, or 6.8%, to $298.0 million in the three months ended August 2, 2025, compared to $319.7 million in the three months ended August 3, 2024. The decrease in net sales was driven by a decrease in brick-and-mortar revenue due to a lower store count and lower sales volume due to lower traffic. The Company also experienced a decrease in e-commerce sales due to lower traffic and conversion compared to the comparable period last year, however these trends have improved since the first quarter of fiscal year 2025, due to shifts in our marketing strategies combined with the impact of our new product strategies. Our stores and e-commerce sales were both negatively impacted by the current macroeconomic environment, including uncertainty around potential tariffs, which has negatively affected consumer sentiment. Comparable retail sales decreased 4.7% for the quarter.

Gross profit decreased $10.5 million to $101.3 million in the three months ended August 2, 2025, compared to $111.8 million in the three months ended August 3, 2024. Gross margin decreased 100 basis points to 34.0% during the three months ended August 2, 2025, compared to 35.0% in the prior year. The decrease in gross margin was caused by adjustments associated with our decrease in inventory balance compared to the prior year and shifts in channel mix, partially offset by favorable product margins and improvements in product mix, pricing and promotions.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $89.6 million in the three months ended August 2, 2025, compared to $96.1 million in the three months ended August 3, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to a reduction in one-time restructuring costs incurred in the prior year due to the departure of certain members of the senior leadership team, partially offset by an increase in marketing expense as we continue to invest in top of funnel and brand building initiatives. Adjusted selling, general, and administrative expenses were $87.6 million in the three months ended August 2, 2025, compared to $88.3 million in the comparable period last year, and deleveraged 180 basis points to 29.4% of net sales, due to lower sales.

Operating income was $4.1 million in the three months ended August 2, 2025, compared to an operating loss of $(21.8) million in the three months ended August 3, 2024. The prior year operating loss included an impairment charge of $28.0 million on the Gymboree tradename. Adjusted operating income was $6.1 million in the three months ended August 2, 2025, compared to $14.2 million in the comparable period last year.

Net interest expense was $8.0 million in the three months ended August 2, 2025, compared to $9.2 million in the three months ended August 3, 2024. The decrease was due to lower average borrowings on the Company’s revolving credit facility with Wells Fargo and other bank lenders, in addition to lower average interest rates during the quarter.

Provision for income taxes was $1.5 million in the three months ended August 2, 2025, compared to $1.1 million during the three months ended August 3, 2024. The Company continues to adjust its valuation allowance based on ongoing operating results.

Net loss was $(5.4) million, or $(0.24) per diluted share, in the three months ended August 2, 2025, compared to $(32.1) million, or $(2.51) per diluted share, in the three months ended August 3, 2024. Adjusted net loss was $(3.4) million, or $(0.15) per diluted share, compared to an Adjusted net income of $3.9 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, in the comparable period last year.

Fiscal Year-To-Date 2025 Results

Net sales decreased $47.4 million, or 8.1%, to $540.1 million in the six months ended August 2, 2025, compared to $587.5 million in the six months ended August 3, 2024. The decrease in net sales was driven by a decrease in e-commerce sales due to lower traffic and conversion. The Company also experienced a decrease in brick-and-mortar revenue due to a lower store count and lower sales volume. Our stores and e-commerce sales were both negatively impacted by the current macroeconomic environment, including uncertainty around potential tariffs, which has negatively affected consumer sentiment. This was partially offset by an increase in wholesale revenue. Comparable retail sales decreased 8.9% for the six months ended August 2, 2025.

Gross profit decreased $32.5 million to $172.1 million in the six months ended August 2, 2025, compared to $204.5 million in the six months ended August 3, 2024. Gross margin decreased 290 basis points to 31.9% during the six months ended August 2, 2025, compared to 34.8% in the prior year period. The decrease in gross margin was caused by adjustments associated with our decrease in inventory balance compared to the prior year and shifts in channel mix from the higher penetration of wholesale sales, partially offset by favorable product margins and improvements in pricing and promotions.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $176.3 million in the six months ended August 2, 2025, compared to $205.2 million in the six months ended August 2, 2024. The decrease was due to a reduction in one-time costs incurred in the prior year, primarily associated with the Company’s change of control and broken financing deal costs. Adjusted selling, general, and administrative expenses were $174.2 million in the six months ended August 2, 2025, compared to $177.0 million in the prior year, and deleveraged 210 basis points to 32.2% of net sales.

Operating loss was $(20.0) million in the six months ended August 2, 2025, compared to $(49.8) million in the six months ended August 3, 2024. Adjusted operating loss was $(17.9) million in the six months ended August 2, 2025, compared to Adjusted operating income of $9.2 million in the comparable period last year.

Net interest expense was $16.6 million in the six months ended August 2, 2025, compared to $17.0 million in the six months ended August 3, 2024. The decrease in interest expense was due to lower average interest rates for the Company’s revolving credit facility, partially offset by the write-off of deferred financing costs associated with the partial paydown of the first term loan entered into with the Company’s majority shareholder, Mithaq Capital SPC (“Mithaq”) as a result of the Company’s rights offering which was completed during the first quarter.

Provision for income taxes was $2.8 million in the six months ended August 2, 2025, compared to $3.2 million during the six months ended August 2, 2024. The Company continues to adjust its valuation allowance based on ongoing operating results.

Net loss was $(39.4) million, or $(1.80) per diluted share, in the six months ended August 2, 2025, compared to $(69.9) million, or $(5.49) per diluted share, in the six months ended August 3, 2024. Adjusted net loss was $(36.3) million, or $(1.66) per diluted share, compared to $(11.0) million, or $(0.86) per diluted share, in the prior year.

Store Update

During the second quarter, the Company opened one store and closed two stores and ended the quarter with 494 stores. The store count at the end of the second quarter of 2024 was 515.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow

As of August 2, 2025, the Company had $7.8 million in cash and cash equivalents, $43.8 million in borrowing availability under its revolving credit facility and an additional $40.0 million in availability under the unsecured Commitment Letter provided by Mithaq, representing total liquidity of $91.6 million. The Company had $294.4 million outstanding on its revolving credit facility and has not drawn down on its Mithaq credit facility. Additionally, the Company used $73.4 million in operating cash flows in the six months ended August 2, 2025.

Inventories were $442.7 million as of August 2, 2025, compared to $520.6 million as of August 3, 2024. These reduced inventory levels were a result of improved inventory management as we continue to align our inventory levels with our growth and product strategy, and better balance the mix of fashion and basic product.

Non-GAAP Reconciliation

The Company’s results are reported in this press release on a GAAP and as adjusted, non-GAAP basis. Adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share, adjusted gross profit, adjusted selling, general, and administrative expenses, and adjusted operating income (loss) are non-GAAP measures, and are not intended to replace GAAP financial information, and may be different from non-GAAP measures reported by other companies. The Company believes the income and expense items excluded as non-GAAP adjustments are not reflective of the performance of its core business, and that providing this supplemental disclosure to investors will facilitate comparisons of the past and present performance of its core business.
