Confirming evidence

  • • Value remains the lead driver in the composite, 7D delta -0.6.

Contradictions & invalidation

  • • FY2026 guidance assumes no additional IEEPA refunds and includes approximately $122 million of net interest expense. [#SEC-8K-2026-09-02]
  • • High membership-points redemption disrupted Q2 sales, and the pace of normalization is unproven. [#SEC-8K-2026-09-02]
  • • Q2's apparent EBITDA and gross-margin improvement relied heavily on a $6.8 million tariff-refund benefit; normalized gross margin was approximately flat year over year.
