Depreciation is an accounting term which is used to spread the cost of an asset over its useful life. It is a method of allocating the cost of an asset over a period of time. It is used to match the cost of the asset to the revenue it generates. Depreciation is a non-cash expense and is used to reduce the value of an asset on the balance sheet. It is important to understand how depreciation works and how it affects the financial statements of businesses. Read the latest news and articles on depreciation below.

Caledonia Mining Corporation Plc: Results for the year ended December 31, 2024 - ForexTV

Restated previous financial statements and non-reliance to the extent set out in this announcement Details of investor and analyst presentation Record Profit, Stable Production and Exploration Success ST HELIER, Jersey, March 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Caledonia Mining Corporation Plc ("Caledonia" or "the Company") announces its operating and financial results for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the "Year"). Caledonia also announces the restatement of previous financial statements due to an error that was identified in the accounting interpretation related to the calculation of deferred tax liabilities of Blanket Mine (“Blanket”). The restatement has no effect on historic reported cash or cashflow statements and has no effect on historic income tax calculations or submissions to the tax authorities. Further information on the financial and operating results for the Year and the quarter ended December 31, 2024 (the "Quarter" or "Q4"), as well as the restatement, can be found in the Management Discussion and Analysis ("MD&A"), and the Consolidated Audited Financial Statements (“Financial Statements”), which are available on the Company's website and are being filed on SEDAR+ and EDGAR. Financial Highlights Gross revenue of $183.0 million, up from $146.3 million in 2023, reflecting higher gold prices.Record gross profit of $77.0 million, up 86% from 2023 driven by a combination of higher gold prices and lower production costs at the Bilboes oxide mine (2023: $41.5 million).Net attributable profit of $17.9 million (2023: net loss of $7.9 million).Substantially stronger operating cash flow of $42.0 million compared to $14.8 million in 2023.Basic IFRS earnings per share (“EPS”) of 91.2 cents (2023: loss per share of 43.6 cents).Adjusted EPS1 of 125.2 cents (2023: loss per share of 10.3 cents).Net cash and cash equivalents improved to negative $8.7 million (31 December 2023: negative $11.0 million).As set out in news releases issued on March 24 and 28, 2025, Caledonia has declared a quarterly dividend of 14 cents per share, payable on April 17, 2025. Operating Highlights Blanket performed well with gold production of 76,656 ounces (2023: 75,416 ounces), within guidance.Bilboes oxide mine gold production of 1,645 ounces (2023: 3,050 ounces), reflecting the decision to place the mine on care and maintenance from September 30, 2023.Consolidated average realised gold price per ounce2 of $2,347 (2023: $1,910).On-mine cost per ounce2 of $1,073 (2023: $1,097).All-in sustaining cost (AISC)2 per ounce of $1,506 (2023: $1,499).In May 2024, the Company announced a 63% increase in measured and indicated mineral resources and a 26% increase in inferred mineral resources at Blanket.Encouraging results announced in November 2024 from the initial exploration programme at Motapa with more exploration work planned at the site in 2025. ______________________________1 Adjusted EPS excludes net foreign exchange movements (including the deferred tax effect and the non-controlling interest thereon) and deferred tax. A reconciliation of IFRS EPS to Adjusted EPS is set out in section 8 of the MD&A2 Non-IFRS measures such as “On-mine cost per ounce”, “All-in sustaining cost per ounce”, “average realised gold price per ounce” and “adjusted EPS” are used throughout this announcement. Refer to section 3.2 of the MD&A for a discussion of non-IFRS measures. Update on Bilboes Feasibility Study As announced on March 27, 2025, Caledonia, with the support of DRA Projects (Pty) Ltd and other technical consultants, has been making good progress on the Feasibility Study (“FS”) for the Bilboes project. While the FS was initially targeted for completion in Q1 2025, the Company has decided to extend the timeline to fully explore several material optimisation opportunities that have the potential to enhance project economics and reduce upfront capital requirements. Key areas of optimisation currently under review include: Engaging with the authorities to explore the potential sale of concentrate, which could significantly reduce upfront capital expenditures by deferring the capital expenditure on a BIOX processing circuit, at least in the first few years of production;Evaluating the potential relocation of the Tailings Storage Facility to a more efficient site, including on Caledonia’s Motapa property adjacent to Bilboes, where the topography could lead to lower initial construction costs; andIncorporating near-term opportunities at Motapa into the FS, following encouraging exploration results in 2024 and the additional exploration and development work planned at Motapa this year. In addition, Caledonia continues to assess near-term revenue opportunities across its portfolio. In particular, high-grade mineralisation recently identified at Blanket could make a meaningful contribution to the initial capital requirements for Bilboes, providing further flexibility around funding. The board remains fully committed to maximising shareholder value: this means ensuring that Bilboes is optimised both technically and financially, while continuing discussions with funding partners and relevant authorities in Zimbabwe. The optimisation work is advancing well, and the Company will provide a further update on the expected timing of the FS in due course. Board and Management Changes On February 14, 2025, Mr. Stefan Buys and Ms. Lesley Goldwasser joined the board as independent non-executive directors.As previously announced on February 19, 2025 and March 21, 2025, Mr. Chester Goodburn steps down as CFO today and is succeeded by Mr. Ross Jerrard.Mr. Johan Holtzhausen is not putting himself forward for reappointment as a director at the next annual general meeting in May 2025. Ms. Tariro Gadzikwa will take over as chair of the Audit Committee provided she is reappointed as a director at the annual general meeting. Strategy and Outlook Capital investment for 2025 is budgeted at $41.0 million, with $34.1 million allocated to Blanket and $6.3 million for the Bilboes and Motapa projects.Strong start to 2025 with 11,782 ounces produced at the end of February.Caledonia’s strategic focus remains on: Maintaining stable production at Blanket while investing in modernising operations to improve efficiency;Continuing to optimise Bilboes to maximise net present value per share;Continued exploration activities at Blanket and Motapa; andBecoming a multi-asset, Zimbabwe-focused gold producer. Mark Learmonth, Chief Executive Officer, commented: “2024 was a year of significant progress for Caledonia, both financially and operationally. We delivered solid gold production at Blanket, achieving 76,656 ounces, towards the upper end of our guidance. Our financial performance benefited from a higher gold price environment, which resulted in a significant increase in gross profit and operating cashflows. “Bilboes remains a highly attractive project, and we are confident that we will find the optimal development method to maximise returns for shareholders. We continue to refine the feasibility study, exploring ways to enhance project economics and reduce upfront capital requirements. We are confident that by taking a disciplined approach we can develop the project in a way that creates long term value while maintaining financial prudence. “Our strategic vision remains to become a multi-asset, Zimbabwe-focused gold producer that delivers sustainable value for shareholders and respective stakeholders. I would like to thank our team and shareholders for your continued support, and I look forward to another year of progress and growth.” Restated previous financial statements In preparation of the Financial Statements, an error was identified in the accounting interpretation related to the calculation of deferred tax liabilities at Blanket. The restatement has no effect on historic reported cash or cashflow statements and has no effect on historic income tax calculations or submissions to the tax authorities. The restatement of financial statements due to this error is summarised below and is qualified in its entirety by the more comprehensive disclosure relating to the restatement in Caledonia’s MD&A. In October 2018, the local Zimbabwe currency known as RTGS$ was introduced in Zimbabwe at 1:1 to the USD. The RTGS$ was deemed the only legal tender in Zimbabwe, and all liabilities held previously were to be denominated in RTGS$. In 2019, Practice Note 26 (as described in note 3.1.5 of the Financial Statements) required all income tax returns to be calculated in RTGS$ for transactions occurring prior to introducing the multi-currency regime in 2023. Blanket’s deferred tax liabilities were incorrectly calculated in RTGS$ and accounted for as a monetary item where RTGS$ deferred tax temporary differences were translated to the USD functional currency. Gains related to the devaluation of the deferred tax liabilities were realised in profit or loss. Transactions from 2019 to 2022 affected the deferred tax liability calculation and continued to be denominated in RTGS$ in accordance with the legislated tax regime after the multi-currency regime was introduced. The accounting for the deferred tax liabilities in RTGS$ with the translation to USD remained consistent in all previous consolidated financial statements, yet the carrying value of the deferred tax liabilities should have been denominated in USD rather than RTGS$. The error, stemming from January 1, 2019, was corrected from the earliest period presented in the Financial Statements, as presented in the table below.

Going forward, management plans to reconsider critical accounting interpretations every 3 years. The remediation efforts to-date have included engaging and consulting with the external accounting advisors, considering authoritative and non-authoritative guidance available in the accounting literature, and conducting a detailed analysis of deferred tax accounting rules. The management team, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, have reaffirmed and re-emphasized the importance of internal control, control consciousness and a strong control environment. Should these remedial measures be insufficient to address the material weakness described above, or additional deficiencies arise in the future, material misstatements in our interim or annual financial statements may occur in the future. Material weakness and non-reliance on previous financial statements In the preparation of the Financial Statements, management identified the prior period error and determined that the restatement of financial information presented was necessary. As a result, management has determined that the control over accounting for deferred tax liabilities did not operate effectively and constitutes a material weakness for the annual and interim filings for the period January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2024. Based on the foregoing, each of the previously filed annual and interim financial statements for the annual and interim periods between January 1, 2019 and September 30, 2024 should not be relied upon in respect of the items set out in the tables above. Commentary Financial Performance In 2024, Caledonia achieved a significant financial turnaround, reporting a net attributable profit of $17.9 million, an improvement from the net loss of $7.9 million in 2023. This positive shift was driven by a 23% increase in the average realised gold price, rising to $2,347 per ounce from $1,910 per ounce in 2023 and cost improvements. Gross profit for the year reached $77.0 million, up from $41.5 million in the previous year, reflecting both the higher gold prices and effective cost management. Operating cash flow also saw an increase to $42.0 million compared to $14.8 million in 2023. This improvement in cash generation has strengthened the company’s financial position, with net cash and cash equivalents improving to negative $8.7 million from negative $11.0 million in the prior year. Outlook for 2025 Looking ahead, Blanket’s production guidance for 2025 is between 73,500 and 77,500 ounces of gold. On-mine cost per ounce is expected to be between $1,050 and $1,150, reflecting anticipated increases in labour and operating expenses. All-in sustaining cost per ounce is expected to be between $1,690 to $1,790 due to a high level of sustaining capital expenditure as Caledonia continues to invest in Blanket’s future. Capital investment for 2025 is budgeted at $41.0 million, with $34.1 million allocated to Blanket and $6.3 million designated for the Bilboes and Motapa projects. These investments aim to enhance operational efficiency and support the Company’s growth objectives.

Thank you to our employees, partners, clients and shareholders for their confidence, trust and loyalty”. KEY DEVELOPMENTS In 2024, DÉKUPLE made solid progress, thanks to the ramping up of its BtoB Digital Marketing activities, which now represent 65.6% of consolidated net sales, compared with 60.0% one year ago. Their gross margin, up + 15.8%, was supported by the development of consulting activities, the strengthening of marketing solutions and agencies, the international expansion and the acquisition of new expertise, including the full-year contribution by Le Nouveau Bélier (expert advertising strategy agency for Retail), as well as the integration of Ereferer (automated netlinking platform), GUD.Berlin (German communications agency) and Coup de Poing (expert BtoB client loyalty agency). On a like-for-like basis, our Digital Marketing activities recorded sustained organic growth, with their gross margin climbing + 7.4%, outpacing the market. This robust development helped offset the slowdown in BtoC activities, which, despite a challenging consumption environment, are continuing to roll out their investments with a view to acquiring recurring clients. In a press market that shows a marked decrease, the Magazine business limited its contraction to - 6.7%, while the Insurance business continued to perform well thanks to its innovative marketing approach. EARNINGS Consolidated net sales2 came to €217.8m, up + 9.1% compared with 2023, while the gross margin3 is up + 4.8% to €169.0m. Against a backdrop of sustained investments, restated EBITDA came to €23.6m, representing 13.9% of the full-year gross margin. Income from ordinary operations totaled €16.4m, representing 9.7% of the gross margin, compared with 10.8% in 2023. This change reflects contrasting trends: on the one hand, the decrease in EBIT for the Magazine business due to sustained commercial investments; on the other hand, the positive contribution by the Insurance business and the solid progress with results for Digital Marketing, making it possible to offset these effects. EBIT came to €14.1m, including -€2.3m of non-current expenses linked primarily to the partial depreciation of goodwill for the subsidiaries Groupe Grand Mercredi and Dékuple Ingénierie Marketing B2B (formerly AWE). Following a €4.6m tax expense, consolidated net income represents €10.3m, down - 19.8% from 2023, with a net margin rate of 6.1%, versus 8.0% in 2022. After deducting minority interests, net income (Group share) totaled €10.1m, compared with €12.4m in 2023.

At 31 December 2024, the Group had €58.0m of cash, compared with €63.6m one year earlier, in line with the increase in investments for external growth, which reached €11.6m in 2024, compared with €4.6m in 2023. Financial debt totaled €55.0m, compared with €44.4m at 31 December 2023, including commitments to buy out minority interests in the Group’s subsidiaries. It also includes €21.3m of bank borrowings set up in 2022 at favorable interest rates to support the Group’s development. Cash net of financial liabilities4 at 31 December 2024 came to €3.0m, compared with €19.2m one year earlier.

For acquisition and management commissions linked to sales of insurance policies, net sales comprise current and future commissions issued, acquired by the accounting reporting date, net of cancellations.3 For the digital marketing business, the gross margin represents the total amount of net sales (total invoices issued: fees, commissions and purchases charged back to clients) less the total amount of costs for external purchases made on behalf of clients.

The Children’s Place Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2024 Results - ForexTV

Reports Third Consecutive Quarter of Adjusted Operating Profits Net Sales of $409 million for Fourth Quarter and $1.386 billion for Full Year Significant Improvement in Gross Profit Margin to 29% for Fourth Quarter and 33% for Full Year Lowest Level of SG&A Spending in more than 15 Years during Fourth Quarter and Full Year Improvement in Operating Income of $68.6 million for Fourth Quarter 2024 versus 2023 Significant Improvement in Liquidity Position with Completion of $90 Million Rights Offering subsequent to Year-End SECAUCUS, N.J., April 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- 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 fourth quarter ended February 1, 2025. Muhammad Umair, President and Interim Chief Executive Officer said, “During the fourth quarter, we continued our efforts to expand gross margin, reduce inefficient SG&A spending and remain laser-focused on improving the profitability of the business, which has enabled us to achieve a third consecutive quarter of adjusted operating profits. As expected, along with the ongoing transformation of our business model, these strategic changes and other macroeconomic headwinds have continued to put pressure on top-line sales. However, we remain extremely pleased with the resulting sequential improvement in the gross profit margin for all four quarters this year.” Mr. Umair added, “With the recent completion of our rights offering, we were also successful in deleveraging our balance sheet. We were able to raise additional capital of $90 million, with $29.8 million in gross cash proceeds, and the remaining $60.2 million being used to pay down a substantial portion of our first term loan from Mithaq. A pro forma balance sheet has been presented in this press release to reflect the impact of the rights offering on our balance sheet, had it been settled prior to the close of our fiscal 2024 year-end.” Mr. Umair continued, “Looking ahead for fiscal 2025, we remain determined to deliver profitable top-line sales as we continue to refine our omni-channel strategy and rebalance our product mix, by offering relevant product that resonates with parents. As we continue to optimize our marketing spend, we will re-invest in a revitalized loyalty program with a best-in-class unified customer database that will allow us to acquire, retain and reactivate our customers. As part of our reimagined business strategy, we are committed to strengthening and enhancing our store portfolio by improving the performance of our existing store fleet, while developing innovative designs to be used in targeted store openings for both The Children’s Place and Gymboree brands in the back-half of 2025 and beyond. Our Executive Chairman, Turki S. AlRajhi, provides a long-term outlook for the Company, with further details on these strategic initiatives and other business priorities, in his letter to shareholders that can be found on our corporate website at: https://corporate.childrensplace.com/chairmans-letters.” Mr. Umair concluded, “At a time when many families are already feeling pressure on their wallets, potential tariffs could represent additional headwinds for the apparel sector. We do expect margin pressure as a result, though we believe our existing country migration and diversification strategies have us well-positioned to partially offset potential impacts. At the same time, we see an opportunity as families grow increasingly value-conscious to continue to deliver quality at accessible prices, which can position us to capture trade-down traffic and support our customers when they need us most.” Fourth Quarter 2024 ResultsNet sales decreased $46.4 million, or 10.2%, to $408.6 million in the three months ended February 1, 2025, compared to $455.0 million in the three months ended February 3, 2024. The decrease in net sales was driven by a combination of the anticipated decrease in e-commerce revenue, as the Company proactively rationalized its unprofitable promotional strategies, inflated marketing spending and “free shipping” offers to improve profitability. The Company also experienced a decrease in brick-and-mortar revenue due to a lower store count and lower sales volume. This was partially offset by an increase in wholesale revenue, as we continue to strengthen relationships with our partners. We are exploring opportunities to expand our wholesale relationships and identify new revenue streams that can drive further revenue growth and profitability. Comparable retail sales decreased 15.3% for the quarter, largely driven by the planned decrease in e-commerce revenue, as the Company proactively sacrificed unprofitable sales to improve profitability. Gross profit increased $17.7 million to $116.6 million in the three months ended February 1, 2025, compared to $98.9 million in the three months ended February 3, 2024. The gross margin rate increased 680 basis points to 28.5% during the three months ended February 1, 2025, compared to 21.7% in the prior year period. The increase in margin was caused by a combination of factors, including reductions in product input costs, including cotton and supply chain costs, which negatively impacted margins in the prior year. These improvements in input costs were combined with the success of the Company’s strategies to rationalize profit-draining promotions and limit unprofitable shipping offers, in addition to optimized shipping carrier rates, which resulted in a significant reduction in freight costs. Selling, general, and administrative expenses were well-controlled at $100.6 million in the three months ended February 1, 2025, compared to $117.6 million in the three months ended February 3, 2024. Adjusted selling, general, and administrative expenses were $99.5 million in the three months ended February 1, 2025, compared to $118.7 million in the comparable period last year, and leveraged 170 basis points to 24.4% of net sales, despite the planned lower sales. This decrease was due to significant reductions in marketing expenses, as the Company eliminated inflated and unprofitable marketing costs and to a lesser extent, due to reductions in store payroll and corporate payroll. Similar to the third quarter, this represents the lowest level of Adjusted selling, general, and administrative expenses in more than 15 years for the fourth quarter of a fiscal year. Operating income was $6.8 million in the three months ended February 1, 2025, compared to Operating loss of $(61.8) million in the three months ended February 3, 2024. Adjusted operating income was $8.3 million in the three months ended February 1, 2025, compared to an Adjusted operating loss of $(30.9) million in the comparable period last year, and leveraged 880 basis points to 2.0% of net sales.  Net interest expense was $8.7 million in the three months ended February 1, 2025, compared to $8.5 million in the three months ended February 3, 2024. The increase was due to the higher amortization of deferred financing costs associated with the unsecured loans entered into with the Company’s majority shareholder, Mithaq Capital SPC (“Mithaq”), partially offset by lower average interest rates associated with the Company’s revolving credit facility. Provision for income taxes was $6.1 million in the three months ended February 1, 2025, compared to $58.6 million during the three months ended February 3, 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by the establishment of a valuation allowance against the Company’s net deferred tax assets in the comparable period last year. The Company continues to adjust the valuation allowance based upon its ongoing operating results. Net loss was $(8.0) million, or $(0.62) per diluted share, in the three months ended February 1, 2025, compared to $(128.8) million, or $(10.24) per diluted share, in the three months ended February 3, 2024. Adjusted net loss was $(9.6) million, or $(0.75) per diluted share, compared to $(92.7) million, or $(7.37) per diluted share, in the comparable period last year. Fiscal Year 2024 ResultsNet sales decreased $216.2 million, or 13.5%, to $1.386 billion in the twelve months ended February 1, 2025, compared to $1.603 billion in the twelve months ended February 3, 2024. The decrease in net sales was primarily due to anticipated declines in e-commerce demand due to the rationalization of promotions, reductions in inflated and unprofitable marketing spend and the strategic decision to change “free shipping” offers, as the Company proactively sacrificed unprofitable sales in an effort to improve profitability. The Company also experienced a decrease in brick-and-mortar revenue due to a lower store count and lower sales volume. This was partially offset by an increase in wholesale revenue, as we continue to strengthen relationships with our partners. Comparable retail sales decreased 13.4% for the twelve months ended February 1, 2025, largely due to the planned decrease in e-commerce revenue.  Gross profit increased $14.2 million to $459.5 million in the twelve months ended February 1, 2025, compared to $445.3 million in the twelve months ended February 3, 2024. The gross margin rate increased 530 basis points to 33.1% during the twelve months ended February 1, 2025, compared to 27.8% in the prior year period. The increase in margin was primarily due to reductions in product input costs, including cotton and supply chain costs, which negatively impacted margins in the prior year. These improvements in input costs were combined with the success of the Company’s strategies to rationalize profit-draining promotions and limit unprofitable shipping offers, in addition to optimized shipping carrier rates, which resulted in a significant reduction in freight costs. Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $405.6 million in the twelve months ended February 1, 2025, compared to $447.3 million in the twelve months ended February 3, 2024. Adjusted selling, general, and administrative expenses were $370.3 million in the twelve months ended February 1, 2025, compared to $432.5 million in the prior year, and leveraged 30 basis points to 26.7% of net sales. This decrease was due to significant reductions in marketing expenses, as the Company eliminated inflated and unprofitable marketing costs and to a lesser extent, due to reductions in store payroll, corporate payroll and professional fees. The Company was successful in reducing Adjusted selling, general, and administrative expenses by $62.3 million despite an increase in incentive compensation and equity compensation of $11.1 million. This represents the lowest level of Adjusted selling, general, and administrative expenses in more than 15 years for a full fiscal year. Operating loss was $(13.7) million in the twelve months ended February 1, 2025, compared to $(83.8) million in the twelve months ended February 3, 2024. Operating loss was impacted by incremental expenses of $66.4 million, which included an impairment charge of $28.0 million on the Gymboree tradename, primarily due to reductions in Gymboree sales forecasts, restructuring costs of $11.7 million primarily due to changes in the senior leadership team, several charges due to the Company’s change of control due to the investment in the Company by Mithaq, including $10.8 million of non-cash equity compensation charges and $3.8 million in other fees, and $7.0 million of financing-related charges related to several new financing initiatives. These charges have been classified as non-GAAP adjustments leading to a shift back to profitability with an Adjusted operating income of $52.7 million in the twelve months ended February 1, 2025, or an improvement of $85.2 million compared to an Adjusted operating loss of $(32.5) million in the prior year, and leveraged 580 basis points to 3.8% of net sales. Net interest expense was $35.7 million in the twelve months ended February 1, 2025, compared to $30.0 million in the twelve months ended February 3, 2024. The increase in interest expense was primarily driven by higher interest-equivalent charges from loans entered into with Mithaq, and higher average interest rates associated with the Company’s revolving credit facility due to the impact of refinancings, partially offset by lower average borrowings on the revolving credit facility. Provision for income taxes was $8.4 million in the twelve months ended February 1, 2025, compared to $40.7 million during the twelve months ended February 3, 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by the establishment of a valuation allowance against the Company’s net deferred tax assets in the prior year and a shift in the jurisdictional earnings mix. The Company continues to adjust the valuation allowance based upon its ongoing operating results. Net loss, which included certain non-cash impairment charges, restructuring charges, and charges due to the Company’s change in control, was $(57.8) million, or $(4.53) per diluted share, in the twelve months ended February 1, 2025, compared to $(154.5) million, or $(12.34) per diluted share, in the twelve months ended February 3, 2024. Adjusted net income was $5.5 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, compared to an Adjusted net loss of $(103.3) million, or $(8.25) per diluted share, in the prior year. Store Update During the fourth quarter, the Company opened its first new store in more than two years, which was a Gymboree stand-alone store located in Garden State Plaza Mall. The Company closed 16 stores in the three months ended February 1, 2025, and ended the year with 495 stores. Balance Sheet and Cash FlowAs of February 1, 2025, the Company had $5.3 million of cash and cash equivalents, $40.2 million of borrowing availability under its revolving credit facility and an additional $40.0 million of availability under the unsecured Commitment Letter provided by Mithaq, representing total liquidity of $85.5 million. The Company had $245.7 million outstanding on its revolving credit facility and has not drawn down on its Mithaq credit facility. Additionally, the Company used $117.6 million in operating cash flows in the twelve months ended February 1, 2025. Inventories were $399.6 million as of February 1, 2025, compared to $362.1 million as of February 3, 2024. On February 6, 2025, the Company raised $90 million in capital and issued 9.2 million shares of Common Stock, pursuant to the completion of its rights offering. The shares issued were settled through the receipt of $29.8 million in cash, which was substantially used to prepay amounts owed under our revolving credit facility with Wells Fargo and other bank lenders, and a reduction of $60.2 million in the amount owed by the Company under its first term loan from Mithaq. Had the transaction been completed on February 1, 2025, the cash available to prepay our revolving credit facility would have increased to $35.2 million and our aggregate long-term debt due to Mithaq would have decreased to $106.8 million, as of the end of the fiscal year. Refer to the “Pro forma Balance Sheet” presented later in this press release which reflects the impact of the rights offering on the Company’s financial position. Non-GAAP ReconciliationThe 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. Please refer to the “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Information to GAAP” later in this press release, which sets forth the non-GAAP operating adjustments for the 13-week period and 52-week period ended February 1, 2025, and for the 14-week period and 53-week period ended February 3, 2024.
