Exhibit 99.1
Torrid Reports Third Quarter Fiscal 2024 Results

•Delivered Net Sales of $263.8 million
•Generated gross margin expansion of 285 basis points to 36.1%
•Net Loss of $1.2 million compared to Net Loss of $2.7 million last year
•Updated 2024 Net Sales and Adjusted EBITDA(1) Outlook

CITY OF INDUSTRY, Calif. – December 3, 2024 – Torrid Holdings Inc. (“Torrid” or the “Company”) (NYSE: CURV), a direct-to-consumer apparel, intimates, and accessories brand in North America for women sizes 10 to 30, today announced its financial results for the quarter ended November 2, 2024.

Lisa Harper, Chief Executive Officer of Torrid, stated, “Our third quarter results were below our expectations as our fall assortments did not offer enough newness and novelty. We also saw the environment change meaningfully from the end of September and into October. Despite the weaker top line sales, we delivered a positive full-price comp, 285 basis points of gross profit expansion, and modest Adjusted EBITDA(1) growth. We ended the quarter with clean inventory levels, down 19% to last year, and $44 million in cash.”
Ms. Harper continued, “While we are encouraged by our customers’ response to the newness in our assortments, given the volatility we have seen in our business, and recognizing that there is still considerable amount of the quarter ahead of us, we are taking a prudent approach to our fourth quarter outlook. As we move into fiscal 2025, we are confident that we have put in place the necessary changes and strategies to position us for growth.”
Financial Highlights for the Third Quarter of Fiscal 2024
•Net sales decreased 4.2% to $263.8 million compared to $275.4 million for the third quarter of last year. Comparable sales(2) decreased 6.5% in the third quarter of this year compared to the third quarter of last year.
•Gross profit margin was 36.1% compared to 33.2% in the third quarter of last year. The 285-bps improvement was primarily driven by reduced product costs and an increase in sales of regular-priced products.
•Net loss of $1.2 million, or ($0.01) per share, compared to net loss of $2.7 million, or ($0.03) per share in the third quarter of last year.
•Adjusted EBITDA(1) was $19.6 million, or 7.4% of net sales, compared to $19.4 million, or 7.0% of net sales, in the third quarter of last year.
•In the third quarter, we opened two Torrid stores and closed four Torrid stores. The total store count at quarter end was 655 stores.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow
Cash and cash equivalents at the end of the third quarter of 2024 totaled $44.0 million. Total liquidity at the end of the quarter, including available borrowing capacity under our revolving credit agreement, was $151.8 million.
Cash flow from operations for the nine-month period ended November 2, 2024, was $65.4 million, compared to $33.7 million for the nine-month period ended October 28, 2023.

Outlook
For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 the Company expects:
•Net sales between $255.0 million and $270.0 million.
•Adjusted EBITDA(1) between $9.0 million and $15.0 million.
For the full year 2024, which has 52 weeks compared to 53 weeks in full year 2023, the Company expects:
•Net sales between $1.083 billion and $1.098 billion.
•Adjusted EBITDA(1) between $101.0 million and $107.0 million.
•Capital expenditures between $20 million and $25 million reflecting infrastructure and technology investments as well as new stores for the year.
•As part of our previously announced store fleet optimization program, we intend to open 12 to 16 new Torrid stores while closing 30 to 40 stores to move towards balancing outdoor centers and enclosed mall locations.

The above outlook is based on several assumptions, including, but not limited to, the macroeconomic challenges in the industry in fiscal 2024 as well as higher labor costs.



The above outlook does not take into consideration the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ruling which mandates, among other things, decreases in credit card late fees, and could alter the profitability of our agreements with our private label credit card financing company. See “Forward-Looking Statements” for additional information.


Conference Call Details

A conference call to discuss the Company’s third quarter 2024 results is scheduled for December 3, 2024, at 4:30 p.m. ET. Those who wish to participate in the call may do so by dialing (877) 407-9208 or (201) 493-6784 for international callers.

For those unable to participate, a replay of the conference call will be available approximately three hours after the conclusion of the call until December 10, 2024.

Notes
(1)Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and “Non-GAAP Reconciliation” for additional information on non-GAAP financial measures and the accompanying table for a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP measure. The Company does not provide reconciliations of the forward-looking non-GAAP measures of Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measure because the timing and amount of excluded items are unreasonably difficult to fully and accurately estimate. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could be material to future results.
(2)Comparable sales for any given period are defined as the sales of our e-Commerce operations and stores that we have included in our comparable sales base during that period. We include a store in our comparable sales base after it has been open for 15 full fiscal months. If a store is closed during a fiscal year, it is only included in the computation of comparable sales for the full fiscal months in which it was open. Comparable sales for the third quarter of fiscal year 2024 compares sales for the 13-week period ended November 2, 2024, with sales for the 13-week period ended November 4, 2023. Partial fiscal months are excluded from the computation of comparable sales. We apply current year foreign currency exchange rates to both current year and prior year comparable sales to remove the impact of foreign currency fluctuation and achieve a consistent basis for comparison. Comparable sales allow us to evaluate how our unified commerce business is performing exclusive of the effects of non-comparable sales and new store openings.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to results determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), management utilizes certain non-GAAP performance measures, such as Adjusted EBITDA, for purposes of evaluating ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We believe that these non-GAAP operating measures, when reviewed collectively with our GAAP financial information, provide useful supplemental information to investors in assessing our operating performance.
Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental measure of our operating performance that is neither required by, nor presented in accordance with, GAAP and our calculations thereof may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA represents GAAP net income (loss) plus interest expense less interest income, net of other expense (income), plus provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), and share-based compensation, non-cash deductions and charges, and other expenses
We believe Adjusted EBITDA facilitates operating performance comparisons from period to period by isolating the effects of certain items that vary from period to period without any correlation to ongoing operating performance. We also use Adjusted EBITDA as one of the primary methods for planning and forecasting the overall expected performance of our business and for evaluating on a quarterly and annual basis, actual results against such expectations.
Further, we recognize Adjusted EBITDA as a commonly used measure in determining business value and, as such, use it internally to report and analyze our results and as a benchmark to determine certain non-equity incentive payments made to executives.
Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool. This measure is not a measurement of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to or substitute for net income (loss), income (loss) from operations, earnings (loss) per share or any other performance measures determined in accordance with GAAP or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.
