1 PENNEY INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS LLC Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) October 28, 2023 and October 29, 2022

Third Quarter Narrative Report The following discussion, which presents results for the third quarter, should be read in conjunction with the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto. Unless otherwise indicated, all references in Narrative are as of the date presented and the Company does not undertake any obligation to update these numbers, or to revise or update any statement being made related thereto. Third Quarter Update During the quarter, the Company maintained its commitment to serving working families across America and to its transformation efforts. In early September, the Company formally introduced its ‘Make It Count’ brand proposition, which is a key strategic initiative designed to drive long-term growth and sustainable traffic and build customer loyalty. Customers responded favorably and as a result, customer frequency increased 300 bp in the period while digital sales as a percent of total sales improved 200 bp over last year. In addition to making trips more frequently, customers’ average sales increased 11% in the quarter, a reflection of customers’ confidence in the value and quality of the merchandise the Company offers. Investments in store environment yielded additional positive increases in net promoter scores and improved overall brand awareness. Over the quarter, the overall store traffic trend improved 160 bp. While all these improvements reflect the positive impact of the Company’s transformational investments and efforts, macroeconomic challenges continued during the quarter and led to a decline in sales. During the period, customer engagement continued to expand as the loyalty program saw significant increases in new enrollments and private-label credit card approval rates remained strong. Amid rising interest rates and declining consumer savings, the underlying credit card portfolio remained healthy, but declining late fees, cyclical rising losses and higher program costs reduced the Company share of credit income when compared to last year. Merchandise gross profit rates improved 270 basis points for the quarter over last year with margin expansion coming from both national and private brand merchandise. Notable category margin improvements were seen in the areas of women’s apparel, adult active, and footwear and handbags. Private brands continued to see selling margin improvements in brands like St John’s Bay and Liz Claiborne, while national brand performance benefited from the reintroduction of brands like Adidas, Dickies and Wrangler. Strong performance in fragrances drove momentum increases for JCP Beauty, along with cross-shopping increases from Beauty customers. The exclusive cookware collaboration with celebrity chef Jenny Martinez, Mesa Mia, drove additional customer engagement both in store and online through personal appearances and digital events, which are planned to continue during the holiday season. Along with these important brand initiatives, ongoing discipline in promotional and markdown activities, supported by strategic investments in planning and allocation tools, resulted in bottom line benefits and further improved the inventory position for the Company. Overall inventory was down 12% over the same period last year. Selling, general, and administrative costs increased slightly over prior year as the Company made additional strategic investments in employee wages, infrastructure and growth-minded activities. Strict expense control helped to mitigate the impact of lower sales. The Company generated positive operating cash flow and reported Adjusted EBITDA of $181M for the first nine months of the year. Self-funded capital investments during the period totaled $95M, expanding the efforts to transform the store and omni-channel experience for customers. The Company continues to prioritize maintaining a very healthy balance sheet with significant liquidity. As a result of tight inventory management and improved working capital efficiencies, the Company decreased its required utilization of its working capital line of credit for the seasonal build in inventory. The outstanding balance on the line of credit at the end of the third quarter was $102M compared to $366M last year. The entire amount outstanding was repaid in November and the facility remains undrawn as of the issuance date of this report. At the end of the third quarter, the Company had available liquidity of over $1.5B, long-term debt of less than $500M, and continued to report one of the lowest debt leverage ratios in the retail industry.
