Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Basis of Presentation
The accompanying interim financial statements of BJ’s Wholesale Club Holdings, Inc. are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, reflect all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial statements in accordance with GAAP. 
The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of February 3, 2024 is derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet as of that date. The Company’s business, as is common with the business of retailers generally, is subject to seasonal influences. The Company’s sales and operating income have typically been highest in the fourth quarter holiday season and lowest in the first quarter of each fiscal year. 
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2023, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 18, 2024.
(b) Fiscal Year
The Company follows the National Retail Federation’s fiscal calendar and reports financial information on a 52- or 53-week year ending on the Saturday closest to January 31. The thirteen-week periods ended November 2, 2024 and October 28, 2023 are referred to herein as the "third quarter of fiscal year 2024" and the "third quarter of fiscal year 2023," respectively. The thirty-nine week periods ended November 2, 2024 and October 28, 2023 are referred to herein as the "thirty-nine weeks ended November 2, 2024" and the "thirty-nine weeks ended October 28, 2023," respectively. Operating results for the thirteen week and thirty-nine week periods ended November 2, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the 52-week fiscal year ending February 1, 2025.
(c) Recent Accounting Pronouncements and Policies
The Company’s accounting policies are set forth in the audited financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2023. There have been no material changes to these accounting policies and no accounting pronouncements adopted that had a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. ASU 2023-09 will require public companies to disclose, on an annual basis, a tabular reconciliation, using both percentages and amounts, broken out into specific categories with certain reconciling items at or above 5% of the statutory tax, further broken out by nature and/or jurisdiction. ASU 2023-09 requires all entities to disclose, on an annual basis, the amount of income taxes paid (net of refunds received), disaggregated between federal, state/local and foreign, and amounts paid to an individual jurisdiction when 5% or more of the total income taxes paid. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, on a prospective basis. Early adoption and retrospective application are permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this new pronouncement will have on its financial statement disclosures.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which expands the segment reporting disclosures and requires disclosure of segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker ("CODM") and included within each reported measure of segment
profit or loss, amounts and description of its composition for other segment items, and interim disclosure of a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets. Additionally, the amendments require the disclosure of the title and position of the CODM and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing performance and deciding how to allocate resources. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, on a retrospective basis. The new pronouncement will not have an impact on the Company's consolidated balance sheet, statement of operations and comprehensive income, statement of stockholders' equity, or statement of cash flows. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of enhanced disclosure requirements on the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. ASU 2024-03 requires disclosure of certain costs and expenses on an interim and annual basis in the notes to the financial statements. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The disclosures required under the guidance can be applied either prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date or retrospectively to any or all periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this guidance will have on its financial statement disclosures.

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]  
Revenue Recognition Revenue Recognition
Net sales
The Company recognizes net sales at clubs and gas stations when the customer takes possession of the goods and tenders payment. Sales tax is recorded as a liability at the point-of-sale. Revenue is recorded at the point-of-sale based on the transaction price, net of any applicable discounts, sales tax, and expected refunds. For e-commerce sales, the Company recognizes sales when control of the merchandise is transferred to the customer, which is typically at the time of shipment.
Rewards programs
The Company’s BJ’s Perks Rewards membership program which was in place in fiscal year 2022 and the first month of fiscal year 2023, allowed participating members to earn 2% cash back, up to a maximum of $500 per year, on qualified purchases made at BJ’s. The Company also offered a co-branded credit card program, the My BJ’s Perks program, which allowed My BJ’s Perks Mastercard credit card holders to earn up to a 10-cent per gallon discount on gasoline, up to 5% cash back on eligible purchases made in BJ’s clubs or online at bjs.com, and up to 2% cash back on purchases made with the card outside of BJ’s. Cash back was in the form of electronic awards issued in $10 increments that could be used online or in-club and expired six months from the date issued. 
In the first quarter of fiscal year 2023, the Company rebranded the rewards program. The former BJ's Perks Rewards membership program is now the Club+ program, whereby participating members earn 2% cash back, up to a maximum of $500 per year, on qualified purchases made at BJs and a 5-cent per gallon discount at BJ's gas locations. Cash back is in the form of electronic awards issued to each member once $10 in rewards have been earned. Earned rewards under the Club+ program do not expire.
The Company's co-branded credit card program is now the BJ's One and BJ's One+ program, which allows cardholders with the opportunity to earn up to 5% cash back on purchases made in BJ's clubs or online at bjs.com and up to a 15-cent per gallon discount on gasoline when paying with a BJ's One or BJ's One+ Mastercard at our BJ’s gas locations. Cash back is in the form of electronic awards issued to each member monthly on their credit card statement date. Earned rewards under the co-branded credit card program do not expire.
The Company accounts for these transactions as multiple-element arrangements and allocates the transaction price to separate performance obligations using their relative fair values. The Company includes the fair value of award dollars earned in deferred revenue at the time the award dollars are earned. Earned awards may be redeemed on future purchases made at the Company. The Company recognizes revenue related to earned awards when customers redeem such awards as part of a purchase at one of the Company’s clubs or on the Company’s website or mobile app. The Company recognizes royalty revenue related to the outstanding My BJ's Perks and BJ's One and BJ's One+ credit card programs based upon actual customer activities, such as reward redemptions. Additionally, the Company deferred revenue for funds received related to marketing, integration costs, and other long-term initiatives in connection with the new co-brand credit card program and will recognize these funds into revenue as performance obligations are satisfied.
Membership
The Company charges a membership fee to its customers, which allows customers to shop in the Company’s clubs, shop on the Company’s website, and purchase gasoline at the Company’s gas stations for the duration of the membership, which is generally 12 months. In addition, members have access to other ancillary services, coupons, and promotions. As the Company has the obligation to provide access to its clubs, website, and gas stations for the duration of the membership term, the Company recognizes membership fees on a straight-line basis over the life of the membership.
Gift Card Program
The Company sells BJ’s gift cards that allow customers to redeem the cards for future purchases equal to the amount of the face value of the gift card. Revenue from gift card sales is recognized upon redemption of the gift cards and control of the purchased goods or services is transferred to the customer.

The timing and recognition of gift card redemptions varies depending on consumer behavior and spending patterns.
Disaggregation of Revenue
The Company’s club retail operations, which include retail club and other sales procured from our clubs and distribution centers, represent substantially all of its consolidated total revenues and are the Company’s only reportable segment. Substantially all of the Company’s identifiable assets are located in the United States. The Company does not have significant sales outside the United States, nor does any customer represent more than 10% of total revenues for any period presented.

ABL Revolving Facility
On July 28, 2022, the Company entered into the ABL Revolving Facility with an ABL Revolving Commitment of $1.2 billion pursuant to that certain credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent, and the other lenders party thereto. The maturity date of the ABL Revolving Facility is July 28, 2027.
Revolving loans under the ABL Revolving Facility are available in an aggregate amount equal to the lesser of the aggregate ABL Revolving Commitment or a borrowing base based on the value of certain inventory and accounts and credit card receivables, subject to specified advance rebates and reserves as set forth in the Credit Agreement. Indebtedness under the ABL Revolving Facility is secured by substantially all of the assets (other than real estate) of the Company and its subsidiaries, subject to customary exceptions. As amended, interest on the ABL Revolving Facility is calculated either at SOFR plus a range of 100 to 125 basis points or a base rate plus 0 to 25 basis points, based on excess availability. The Company will also pay an unused commitment fee of 20 basis points per annum on the unused ABL Revolving Commitment. Each borrowing is for a period of one, three, or six months, as selected by the Company, or for such other period that is twelve months or less requested by the Company and consented to by the lenders and administrative agent.
The ABL Revolving Facility places certain restrictions (i.e., covenants) upon the Borrower’s, and its subsidiaries’, ability to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends, and make certain loans, investments, and divestitures. The ABL Revolving Facility contains customary events of default (including payment defaults, cross-defaults to certain of our other indebtedness, breach of representations and covenants and change of control). The occurrence of an event of default under the ABL Revolving Facility would permit the lenders to accelerate the indebtedness and terminate the ABL Revolving Facility.
As of November 2, 2024, there was $245.0 million outstanding in loans under the ABL Revolving Facility and $12.8 million in outstanding letters of credit. The interest rate on the ABL Revolving Facility was 5.77% and unused capacity was $942.2 million. As of February 3, 2024 and October 28, 2023, the interest rate on the ABL Revolving Facility was 6.44% and 6.43%, respectively.
First Lien Term Loan
On October 12, 2023, the Company entered into an amendment (the “Fourth Amendment”) to the First Lien Term Loan Credit Agreement, with Nomura Corporate Funding Americas, LLC, as administrative agent and collateral agent, and the lenders party thereto.
The Fourth Amendment, among other things, extended the maturity date with respect to the term loans outstanding under the First Lien Term Loan Credit Agreement from February 3, 2027 to February 3, 2029. In addition, the Fourth Amendment reduced applicable margin in respect of the interest rate from SOFR plus 275 basis points per annum to SOFR plus 200 basis points per annum.
Voluntary prepayments are permitted. Principal payments must be made on the First Lien Term Loan pursuant to an annual excess cash flow calculation when the net leverage ratio exceeds 3.50 to 1.00. As of November 2, 2024, the Company's net leverage ratio did not exceed 3.50 to 1.00, and therefore, no incremental principal payments were required. The First Lien Term Loan is subject to certain affirmative and negative covenants. It is secured on a senior basis by certain "fixed assets" of the Company and on a junior basis by certain "liquid" assets of the Company.
There was $400.0 million outstanding under the First Lien Term Loan as of each of November 2, 2024, February 3, 2024, and October 28, 2023. The interest rate on the First Lien Term Loan was 6.76%, 7.33%, and 7.35% at November 2, 2024, February 3, 2024, and October 28, 2023, respectively.
On November 4, 2024, the Company entered into an amendment (the "Fifth Amendment") to the First Lien Term Loan Credit Agreement, with Nomura Corporate Funding Americas, LLC, as administrative agent and collateral agent, and the lenders party thereto.
The Fifth Amendment, among other things, provided for a new tranche of term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $400.0 million, which refinanced and replaced in full the existing Tranche B term loans outstanding under the First Lien Term Loan Credit Agreement immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Fifth Amendment. In addition, the Fifth Amendment reduced applicable margin in respect of the interest rate from SOFR plus 200 basis points per annum to SOFR plus 175 basis points per annum.

Income Taxes Income Taxes
The Company projects the estimated annual effective tax rate for fiscal year 2024 to be 28.1%, excluding the tax effect of discrete events, such as excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation, changes in tax legislation, settlements of tax audits and changes in uncertain tax positions, among others.
The Company’s effective income tax rate from continuing operations was 28.2% and 28.1% for the thirteen weeks ended November 2, 2024 and October 28, 2023, respectively. For the thirty-nine weeks ended November 2, 2024 and October 28, 2023, the Company's effective tax rate from continuing operations was 25.7% and 29.7%, respectively.
The increase in the effective tax rate for the thirteen weeks ended November 2, 2024 compared to the thirteen weeks ended October 28, 2023 was primarily driven by lower excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation in the current period. The decrease in the effective tax rate for the thirty-nine weeks ended November 2, 2024 compared to the thirty-nine weeks ended October 28, 2023 was primarily driven by higher tax benefits from stock-based compensation in the current period.
The Company is subject to taxation in the U.S. federal and various state taxing jurisdictions. The Company’s tax years from 2019 forward remain open and subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and various state taxing authorities.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]  
Fair Value Measurements Fair Value Measurements
Certain assets and liabilities are required to be carried at fair value in accordance with GAAP. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.
The Company uses a three-level hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. This hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value are to be classified and disclosed in one of the following three levels of the fair value hierarchy, of which the first two are considered observable and the last is considered unobservable:
Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Observable inputs other than quoted market prices included in Level 1 such as quoted market prices for markets that are not active or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities, including certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.
Financial Assets and Liabilities
The fair value of the Company's long-term debt is estimated based on current market rates for our specific debt instrument. Judgment is required to develop these estimates. As such, the estimated fair value of long-term debt is classified within Level 2, as defined under U.S. GAAP.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis
The Company measures certain non-financial assets and liabilities, including long-lived assets, at fair value on a non-recurring basis.
The Company believes that the carrying amounts of its other financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable, approximate their fair values due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation Basis of Presentation
The accompanying interim financial statements of BJ’s Wholesale Club Holdings, Inc. are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, reflect all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial statements in accordance with GAAP. 
The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of February 3, 2024 is derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet as of that date. The Company’s business, as is common with the business of retailers generally, is subject to seasonal influences. The Company’s sales and operating income have typically been highest in the fourth quarter holiday season and lowest in the first quarter of each fiscal year. 
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2023, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 18, 2024.
Fiscal Year Fiscal YearThe Company follows the National Retail Federation’s fiscal calendar and reports financial information on a 52- or 53-week year ending on the Saturday closest to January 31. The thirteen-week periods ended November 2, 2024 and October 28, 2023 are referred to herein as the "third quarter of fiscal year 2024" and the "third quarter of fiscal year 2023," respectively. The thirty-nine week periods ended November 2, 2024 and October 28, 2023 are referred to herein as the "thirty-nine weeks ended November 2, 2024" and the "thirty-nine weeks ended October 28, 2023," respectively. Operating results for the thirteen week and thirty-nine week periods ended November 2, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the 52-week fiscal year ending February 1, 2025.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements and Policies Recent Accounting Pronouncements and Policies
The Company’s accounting policies are set forth in the audited financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2023. There have been no material changes to these accounting policies and no accounting pronouncements adopted that had a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. ASU 2023-09 will require public companies to disclose, on an annual basis, a tabular reconciliation, using both percentages and amounts, broken out into specific categories with certain reconciling items at or above 5% of the statutory tax, further broken out by nature and/or jurisdiction. ASU 2023-09 requires all entities to disclose, on an annual basis, the amount of income taxes paid (net of refunds received), disaggregated between federal, state/local and foreign, and amounts paid to an individual jurisdiction when 5% or more of the total income taxes paid. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, on a prospective basis. Early adoption and retrospective application are permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this new pronouncement will have on its financial statement disclosures.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which expands the segment reporting disclosures and requires disclosure of segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker ("CODM") and included within each reported measure of segment
profit or loss, amounts and description of its composition for other segment items, and interim disclosure of a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets. Additionally, the amendments require the disclosure of the title and position of the CODM and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing performance and deciding how to allocate resources. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, on a retrospective basis. The new pronouncement will not have an impact on the Company's consolidated balance sheet, statement of operations and comprehensive income, statement of stockholders' equity, or statement of cash flows. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of enhanced disclosure requirements on the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. ASU 2024-03 requires disclosure of certain costs and expenses on an interim and annual basis in the notes to the financial statements. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The disclosures required under the guidance can be applied either prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date or retrospectively to any or all periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this guidance will have on its financial statement disclosures.
