Shoe Station Group, Inc. amended its $100 million revolving credit facility, extending its maturity to October 15, 2031. The amendment revises borrowing margins: Base Rate loans carry a margin of 0.00% to 1.00%, while Adjusted Term SOFR loans carry a margin of 1.00% to 2.00%; both depend on the Company’s Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio. The amended Adjusted Term SOFR definition removes the 0.10% credit spread adjustment. Fees on unused commitments range from 0.20% to 0.30% per annum, also based on that ratio.
It increases the annual restricted-payment basket, subject to applicable conditions, to $40 million and permits up to $35 million of debt secured by real property acquired, constructed or developed for the corporate headquarters. Specified add-backs in Consolidated EBIT are subject to a 20% cap. The default threshold for certain defaults is the greater of $10 million and 10% of Consolidated EBITDA. The amendment also permits certain sale-leaseback transactions involving the Evansville, Indiana real property and any corporate headquarters property, subject to its conditions.

Shoe Station Group, Inc. (SHOE) reported weaker results for the quarter ended August 1, 2026, as a more promotional footwear environment and misaligned assortments pressured sales and margins. Net sales fell to $284.3 million, down 7.2% year over year, driven by a 7.1% decline in comparable store net sales and a 4% drop in units sold.
Gross margin declined to 31.9% from 38.8%, mainly due to heavier promotions and liquidation of aged and excess inventory, plus the absence of prior-year tariff-related pricing benefits. Quarterly net income dropped to $6.3 million (diluted EPS $0.23) from $19.2 million ($0.70). Year-to-date net income was only $0.6 million versus $28.6 million, reflecting $13.6 million of CEO transition and strategic review charges booked in the first quarter.
Despite profit pressure, the company remains financially strong, with $131.6 million in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, no debt and $99.0 million of unused credit capacity.
