Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information and Non-GAAP Measures
This current report on Form 8-K contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company intends forward-looking terminology such as “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “intends,” “anticipates,” “plans,” or similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include the information under “Updated 2024 Financial and Capital Allocation Outlook.” Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, which could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from those anticipated by the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, risks described more fully in Item 1A in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, which is expressly incorporated herein by reference, and other factors as may periodically be described in the Company’s filings with the SEC. Forward-looking statements relate to the date initially made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update them.
In the attached presentation materials, the Company provides information regarding adjusted free cash flow, which is not a recognized term under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and does not purport to be an alternative to net income as a measure of operating performance. A reconciliation of adjusted free cash flow is provided in the presentation materials attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2. The Company believes that the use of this non-GAAP financial measure provides investors with enhanced visibility into its results with respect to the impact of certain costs. Because not all companies use identical calculations, this presentation may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

Kohls Reports Third Quarter Fiscal 2024 Financial Results
MENOMONEE FALLS, Wis.(BUSINESS WIRE)November 26, 2024 Kohls Corporation (NYSE:KSS) today reported results for the third quarter
ended November 2, 2024.
|
|
Net sales decreased 8.8% and comparable sales decreased 9.3% |
|
|
Diluted earnings per share of $0.20 |
|
|
Updates full year 2024 financial outlook |
|
|
Kohls Board announces CEO transition process |
Tom Kingsbury, Kohls chief executive officer, said Our third quarter results did not meet our expectations as sales remained soft in our apparel
and footwear businesses. Although we had a strong collective performance across our key growth areas, including Sephora, home decor, gifting, and impulse, and also benefited from the opening of Babies R Us shops in 200 of our stores,
these were unable to offset the declines in our core business. Importantly, we delivered gross margin expansion and managed expenses tightly in the quarter.
We are not satisfied with our performance in 2024 and are taking aggressive action to reverse the sales declines. We must execute at a higher level and
ensure we are putting the customer first in everything we do. We are approaching our financial outlook for the year more conservatively given the third quarter underperformance and our expectation for a highly competitive holiday season,
Kingsbury continued.
CEO Transition Process
As announced on November 25, 2024, Chief Executive Officer Tom Kingsbury plans to step down as CEO, effective January 15, 2025. He will stay on in an
advisory role to the new CEO and retain his position on Kohls Board of Directors (the Board) through his retirement in May 2025. The Board appointed retail veteran Ashley Buchanan as CEO and Board member, effective January 15,
2025.

“We have taken significant action to reposition Kohl’s for
future growth. And while we are making progress against our strategic priorities, our efforts have yet to fully yield the intended outcome due in part to a continued challenging consumer environment. During the second quarter, our customers
exhibited more discretion in their spending, which pressured our sales even as customers transacted more frequently. This overshadowed strong performance in our key growth areas, including Sephora, home decor, gifting, and impulse. In spite of this,
we continued to execute well operationally, enabling us to deliver a 13% increase in earnings driven by gross margin expansion and strong inventory and expense management.” ” However, We “Our third quarter results did not meet our
expectations as sales remained soft in our apparel and footwear businesses. Although we had a strong collective performance across our key growth areas, including Sephora, home decor, gifting, and impulse, and also benefited from the opening
of Babies “R” Us shops in 200 of our stores, these were unable to offset the declines in our core business. Importantly, we delivered gross margin expansion and managed expenses tightly in the quarter. “We are not satisfied
with our performance in 2024 and are taking aggressive action to reverse the sales declines. Our conviction in our strategy remains strong, however we must execute at a higher level and ensure we are putting the customer first in everything we
do. We are approaching our financial outlook for the year more conservatively given the third quarter underperformance and our expectation for a highly competitive holiday season,” ” “We have taken significant action to
reposition Kohl’s for future growth. And while we are making progress against our strategic priorities, our efforts have yet to fully yield the intended outcome due in part to a continued challenging consumer environment and softness in some
of our core businesses. During the second quarter, our customers exhibited more discretion in their spending, which pressured our sales even as customers transacted more frequently. This overshadowed strong performance in our key growth areas,
including Sephora, home decor, gifting, and impulse. In spite of this, we continued to execute well operationally, enabling us to deliver a 13% increase in earnings driven by gross margin expansion and strong inventory and expense management.”
“Looking ahead, we are focused on ensuring that the substantial work that we’ve done across product, value, and experience is fully recognized by both new and existing customers. We will also capitalize on new opportunities such as our
partnership with Babies “R” Us and continue to benefit from our key growth areas. Our conviction in our strategy remains strong and our operating discipline, solid cash flow generation, and healthy balance sheet will continue to support
us as we work to return Kohl’s to growth.”
