Confirming Full Year 2026 Guidance and Providing Q2 Update

In connection with participation in upcoming investor meetings and conferences, National Vision Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) is confirming its guidance.

As previously announced, the Company will be presenting at the William Blair 46th Annual Growth Stock Conference on June 3, 2026. At the conference, the Company will reaffirm its fiscal 2026 outlook as provided in its press release issued on May 13, 2026, in connection with the announcement of the Company’s financial results for the first quarter of 2026. The Company has now completed the migration of its e-commerce platform across all brands and is seeing sequential improvement in traffic trends after the temporary disruption primarily related to the re-platform. Second quarter to date, Adjusted Comparable Store Sales Growth (defined below) is tracking in the low-single-digit range, and the Company expects Adjusted Comparable Store Sales Growth for the second quarter in the low-single-digit range.

Additional Information

The Company’s fiscal 2026 outlook is forward-looking, subject to significant business, economic, regulatory and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the control of the Company and its management, and based upon assumptions with respect to future decisions, which are subject to change. These uncertainties include, but are not limited to, dynamic market conditions, unexpected disruptions including additional regulatory actions impacting international trade such as tariffs, issues relating to the implementation of our transformation initiatives, geopolitical issues, higher transportation or other costs due to rising fuel or energy costs, and other macroeconomic risks and uncertainties. Actual results may vary and those variations may be material. As such, the Company’s results may not fall within the ranges contained in its fiscal 2026 outlook.

Adjusted Comparable Store Sales Growth is a non-GAAP measure defined as the increase or decrease in sales recorded by the comparable store base in any reporting period, compared to sales recorded by the comparable store base in the prior reporting period, which the Company calculates as follows: (i) sales are recorded at the point of sale (ii) sales are adjusted for managed care insurance collection estimates (iii) stores are added to the calculation during the 13th full fiscal month following the store’s opening; (iv) closed stores are removed from the calculation for time periods that are not comparable; (v) sales from partial months of operation are excluded when stores do not open or close on the first day of the month; and (vi) when applicable, the Company adjusts for the effect of the 53rd week; (vii) in fiscal years following a 53-week fiscal year, there is a one week calendar shift to the comparable prior year period. For the calculation of the adjusted comparable store sales growth in the first quarter of 2026, the Company compared weeks 1 through 13 in fiscal 2026 against weeks 2 through 14 in fiscal 2025. Quarterly, year-to-date and annual adjusted comparable store sales are aggregated using only sales from all whole months of operation included in both the current reporting period and the prior reporting period. When a partial month is excluded from the calculation, the corresponding month in the subsequent period is also excluded from the calculation. There may be variations in the way in which some of our competitors and other retailers calculate comparable store sales. As a result, the Company’s adjusted comparable store sales may not be comparable to similar data made available by other retailers.

Repurchase Program Update

Additionally, the Company is providing a status update to its stock repurchase program. As previously announced, effective March 2, 2026, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to $50 million aggregate amount of shares of the Company’s common stock until December 28, 2030 (the “Repurchase Authorization”). As of the date hereof, the Company has repurchased approximately $20 million of shares of common stock under the Repurchase Authorization. The timing and amounts of any further repurchases under the Repurchase Authorization will depend on a variety of factors, including the market price of the Company’s shares, general market and economic conditions, legal requirements and tax implications.

The information in this Current Report on Form 8-K under Item 7.01 is being furnished to the SEC and shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference into any of National Vision’s filings with the SEC under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act.

not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statement as such statements speak only as of the date when made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as required by law. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees and are subject to various risks and uncertainties, which may cause actual results to differ materially from those implied in forward-looking statements.
