Adjusted EBITDA financial
"Adjusted EBITDA(1) was $17.6 million, or 7.2% of net sales, compared to $27.1 million"
Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.
comparable sales financial
"Comparable sales(2) decreased 1.7% in the first quarter."
"Comparable sales" are the total sales from stores or products that have been open for a certain period, usually the same time last year or last quarter. They help show whether a business is growing by comparing similar locations or products over time, much like checking if your favorite store's sales are going up compared to previous years.
Store Footprint Optimization Project financial
"we closed 20 Torrid stores as part of the Store Footprint Optimization Project."
Non-GAAP financial measures financial
"management utilizes certain non-GAAP performance measures, such as Adjusted EBITDA"
Non-GAAP financial measures are numbers companies use to show their financial performance that exclude certain expenses or income. They help investors see how the company might perform without one-time costs or other unusual items, giving a different perspective from official reports. However, since they can be adjusted, they don’t always tell the full story and should be looked at alongside standard financial figures.
omni-channel experience financial
"our ability to develop and maintain a relevant and reliable omni-channel experience for our customers"
Net sales $245.8 million -7.6% year over year
Net income $0.4 million down from $5.9 million prior year
Adjusted EBITDA $17.6 million down from $27.1 million prior year
Gross profit margin 35.3% down from 38.1% prior year
Guidance

For Q2 2026, net sales expected at $232–$240 million and Adjusted EBITDA at $12–$16 million. For full-year 2026, net sales expected at $940–$960 million and Adjusted EBITDA at $65–$75 million.

Torrid Reports First Quarter 2026 Results and Fiscal 2026 Guidance
Exceeded First Quarter Net Sales guidance
First Quarter Net Income of $0.4 million
Delivered First Quarter Adjusted EBITDA(1) at the high end of guidance

CITY OF INDUSTRY, Calif. – June 2, 2026 – 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 first quarter ended May 2, 2026.
Lisa Harper, Chief Executive Officer, stated, “We are pleased to report first quarter net sales of $245.8 million, slightly above our guidance, and adjusted EBITDA(1) of $17.6 million at the high end of our guidance range. These results reflect disciplined execution across our strategic initiatives and signal progress in positioning us for comparable sales growth in the back half of the year and beyond. Our portfolio of five Sub-Brands is off to a strong start, and our Opening Price Point strategy has proven to be both a meaningful conversion driver and a basket-building lever.”
Harper continued, “With our product and pricing foundation in place and the completion of our store optimization program, our primary focus for 2026 is customer file growth through acquisition, reactivation, and retention. We have strengthened our marketing capabilities with AI-powered personalization and improved paid media ROAS. We are also relaunching our Casting Call platform in July as a year-round customer engagement initiative. This is a powerful community ambassadorship program, and we are scaling it significantly this year with a Times Square activation and store events throughout the country. Together, these initiatives are positioned to deliver improved performance - with meaningful benefits expected in the second half of the year — and to create lasting shareholder value.”

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow
Cash and cash equivalents in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 totaled $22.8 million. Total liquidity at the end of the first quarter, including available borrowing capacity under our revolving credit agreement, was $100.0 million.
Net cash provided by operations for the first quarter ended May 2, 2026 was $11.2 million, compared to net cash used in operations of $18.0 million for the first quarter ended May 3, 2025.
Outlook:
For the second quarter of fiscal 2026 the Company expects:
Net sales between $232 million and $240 million.
Adjusted EBITDA(1) between $12 million and $16 million.
For the full year fiscal 2026 the Company expects:
Net sales between $940 million and $960 million.



Adjusted EBITDA(1) between $65 million and $75 million.
Capital expenditures between $8 million and $10 million.
The above outlook is based on several assumptions, including, but not limited to, the macroeconomic challenges in the industry in fiscal 2026. The above outlook does not take into consideration the volatility of tariff changes, tariff rebates/refunds, or its impact on inflation or consumer demand. See “Forward-Looking Statements” for additional information.
Conference Call Details
A conference call to discuss the Company’s first quarter fiscal 2026 results is scheduled for June 4, 2026, 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. The conference call will also be webcast live at https://investors.torrid.com. For those unable to participate, a replay of the conference call will be available approximately three hours after the conclusion of the call until June 18, 2026.
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 Torrid’s e-Commerce operations and stores that it has included in its comparable sales base during that period. The Company includes a store in its 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. The Company also determines when certain store remodels and relocations are reintegrated into our comparable sales base. Partial fiscal months are excluded from the computation of comparable sales. Comparable sales allow the Company to evaluate how its unified commerce business is performing exclusive of the effects of non-comparable sales and new store openings. The Company applies 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.

Our brand experience and product offerings establish us as a differentiated and reliable choice for plus- and mid-size customers, which we believe sets us apart in the market. We strive to be everything our customer needs in her closet, consistently delivering products that make her feel confident and stylish.
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.

You should evaluate all forward-looking statements made in this earnings release in the context of these risks and uncertainties.
We derive many of our forward-looking statements from our operating budgets and forecasts, which are based upon many detailed assumptions. While we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, we caution that it is very difficult to predict the effect of known factors, and, it is impossible for us to anticipate all factors that could affect our actual results. We caution you that the important factors referenced above may not include all of the factors that are important to you. In addition, we cannot assure you that we will realize the results or developments we expect or anticipate or, even if substantially realized, that they will result in the outcomes or affect us or our operations in the way we expect. The forward-looking statements included in this earnings release are made only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except to the extent required by law. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, joint ventures, or investments.
