Employee Benefit Plans	12 Months Ended
Employee Benefit Plans	Jan. 29, 2022
Compensation and Retirement Disclosure [Abstract]
Employee Benefit Plans	10. Employee Benefit Plans: The Company has a defined contribution retirement savings plan (“401(k) plan”) which covers all associates who meet minimum age and service requirements. The 401(k) plan allows participants to contribute up to 75% of their annual compensation up to the maximum elective deferral, designated by the IRS. The Company is obligated to make a minimum contribution to cover plan administrative expenses. Further Company contributions are at the discretion of the Board of Directors. The Company’s contributions for the years ended January 29, 2022, January 30, 2021 and February 1, 2020 were approximately $ 1,210,000 , $ 0 and $ 1,499,000 , respectively. The Company has a trusteed, non-contributory Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”), which covers substantially all associates who meet minimum age and service requirements. The amount of the Company’s discretionary contribution to the ESOP is determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors and can be made in Company Class A Common stock or cash. The Committee approved a contribution to the ESOP for the year ended January 29, 2022 of $29,430,000, of which $15,000,000 was contributed in the third quarter of fiscal 2021. The Company’s contribution was $ 0 and $ 7,198,000 for the years ended January 30, 2021 and February 1, 2020, respectively. The Company is primarily self-insured for healthcare. These costs are significant primarily due to the large number of the Company’s retail locations and associates. The Company’s self-insurance liabilities are based on the total estimated costs of claims filed and estimates of claims incurred but not reported, less amounts paid against such claims. Management reviews current and historical claims data in developing its estimates. If the underlying facts and circumstances of the claims change or the historical trend is not indicative of future trends, then the Company may be required to record additional expense or a reduction to expense which could be material to the Company’s reported financial condition and results of operations. The Company funds healthcare contributions to a third-party provider.

Leases	12 Months Ended
Leases	Jan. 29, 2022
LeasesOperatingAbstract
Leases	11. Leases: The Company determines whether an arrangement is a lease at inception. The Company has operating leases for stores, offices and equipment. Its leases have remaining lease terms of one year to 10 years, some of which include options to extend the lease term for up to five years, and some of which include options to terminate the lease within one year. The Company considers these options in determining the lease term used to establish its right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its estimated incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date of the lease in determining the present value of lease payments. The components of lease cost are shown below (in thousands): ` Twelve Months Ended January 29, 2022 January 30, 2021 Operating lease cost (a) $ 68,763 $ 69,601 Variable lease cost (b) $ 3,041 $ 1,555 (a) Includes right-of-use asset amortization of ($ 2.2 ) million and ($ 4.6 ) million for the twelve months ended January 29, 2022 and January 30, 2021, respectively. (b) Primarily related to monthly percentage rent for stores not presented on the balance sheet. Supplemental cash flow information and non-cash activity related to the Company’s operating leases are as follows (in thousands): Operating cash flow information: Twelve Months Ended January 29, 2022 January 30, 2021 Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities $ 63,201 $ 62,559 Non-cash activity: Right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for lease obligations, net of rent violations $ 40,756 $ 58,978 Weighted-average remaining lease term and discount rate for the Company’s operating leases are as follows: ` As of January 29, 2022 January 30, 2021 Weighted-average remaining lease term 2.7 years 2.9 years Weighted-average discount rate 3.55% 4.06% Maturities of lease liabilities by fiscal year for the Company’s operating leases are as follows (in thousands): Fiscal Year 2022 $ 71,250 2023 52,791 2024 36,066 2025 21,230 2026 10,035 Thereafter 2,456 Total lease payments 193,828 Less: Imputed interest 9,499 Present value of lease liabilities $ 184,329

Income Taxes	12 Months Ended
Income Taxes	Jan. 29, 2022
Income Taxes [Abstract]
Income Taxes	12. Income Taxes: Unrecognized tax benefits for uncertain tax positions, primarily recorded in Other noncurrent liabilities, are established in accordance with ASC 740 when, despite the fact that the tax return positions are supportable, the Company believes these positions may be challenged and the results are uncertain. The Company adjusts these liabilities in light of changing facts and circumstances. As of January 29, 2022, the Company had gross unrecognized tax benefits totaling approximately $5.3 million, of which approximately $ 6.4 million (inclusive of interest) would affect the effective tax rate if recognized. The Company had approximately $ 2.0 million, $ 2.8 million and $ 3.3 million of interest and penalties accrued related to uncertain tax positions as of January 29, 2022, January 30, 2021 and February 1, 2020, respectively. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to the resolution of uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense. The Company recognized $ 452,000 , $ 424,000 and $ 574,000 of interest and penalties in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the years ended January 29, 2022, January 30, 2021 and February 1, 2020, respectively. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations for years before 2018. In state and local tax jurisdictions, the Company has limited exposure before 2011. During the next 12 months, various state and local taxing authorities’ statutes of limitations will expire and certain state examinations may close, which could result in a potential reduction of unrecognized tax benefits for which a range cannot be determined. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits is as follows (in thousands): ` January 29, 2022 January 30, 2021 February 1, 2020 Fiscal Year Ended Balances, beginning $ 5,946 $ 7,942 $ 8,485 Additions for tax positions of the current year 1,312 286 375 Additions for tax positions prior years 680 - - Reduction for tax positions of prior years for: Settlements during the period - 614 2 Lapses of applicable statutes of limitations (2,652) (2,896) (920) Balances, ending $ 5,286 $ 5,946 $ 7,942 The provision for income taxes consists of the following (in thousands): ` January 29, 2022 January 30, 2021 February 1, 2020 Fiscal Year Ended Current income taxes: Federal $ 2,532 $ (31,927) $ 3,321 State 802 1,842 96 Foreign 1,984 1,731 1,763 Total 5,318 (28,354) 5,180 Deferred income taxes: Federal (2,558) 1,905 574 State (639) 1,129 1,556 Foreign - (3) - Total (3,197) 3,031 2,130 Total income tax expense (benefit) $ 2,121 $ (25,323) $ 7,310 Significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities as of January 29, 2022 and January 30, 2021 are as follows (in thousands): ` January 29, 2022 January 30, 2021 Deferred tax assets: Allowance for customer credit losses $ 171 $ 131 Inventory valuation 1,176 1,004 Non-deductible accrued liabilities 1,367 1,613 Other taxes 1,135 1,184 Federal benefit of uncertain tax positions 972 1,001 Equity compensation expense 3,666 4,097 Net operating losses 4,206 4,531 Charitable contribution carryover 241 394 State tax credits 1,115 1,115 Lease liabilities 42,268 47,428 Other 4,293 2,204 Total deferred tax assets before valuation allowance 60,610 64,702 Valuation allowance (4,473) (5,256) Total deferred tax assets after valuation allowance 56,137 59,446 Deferred tax liabilities: Property and equipment - 1,480 Accrued self-insurance reserves 504 466 Right-of-Use assets 46,320 51,350 Other - 465 Total deferred tax liabilities 46,824 53,761 Net deferred tax assets $ 9,313 $ 5,685 The changes in the valuation allowance are presented below: January 29, 2022 January 30, 2021 Valuation Allowance Beginning Balance $ (5,256) $ (1,079) Net Valuation Allowance (Additions) / Reductions 783 (4,177) Valuation Allowance Ending Balance $ (4,473) $ (5,256) As of January 29, 2022, the Company had $1.1 million of state tax credits to offset future state income tax expense, which are set to expire by fiscal 2023. Based on the available evidence, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance of $1.1 million. As of January 29, 2022, the Company had $4.2 million of state net operating loss carryforwards. The Company assessed the likelihood that deferred tax assets related to state net operating loss carryforwards will be realized in light of the adverse impact on the Company’s financial statements and operations due to COVID-19. Based on this assessment, the Company concluded that it is more likely than not the Company will not be able to realize net operating losses and, accordingly, has recorded a valuation allowance of $3.4 million for the portion it expects to not be realized. The net change in the valuation allowance for January 29, 2022 and January 30, 2021 is for state net operating losses. As of January 29, 2022, the Company’s position is that its overseas subsidiaries will not invest undistributed earnings indefinitely. Future unremitted earnings when distributed are expected to be either distributions of GILTI-previously taxed income or eligible for a 100% dividends received deduction. The withholding tax rate on any unremitted earnings is zero and state income taxes on such earnings are considered immaterial. Therefore, the Company has not provided deferred U.S. income taxes on approximately $26.9 million of earnings from non-U.S. subsidiaries. The reconciliation of the Company’s effective income tax rate with the statutory rate is as follows: ` January 29, 2022 January 30, 2021 February 1, 2020 Fiscal Year Ended Federal income tax rate 21.0 % 21.0 % 21.0 % State income taxes 2.7 4.0 1.7 CARES ACT - Carryback differential (5.8) 18.3 - Global intangible low-taxed income 6.7 (5.3) 5.9 Foreign tax credit (4.3) - (3.7) Foreign rate differential (2.8) 1.2 (2.5) Offshore claim (5.5) 2.5 (5.2) Limitation on officer compensation 1.9 (0.4) 1.4 Work opportunity credit (1.8) 0.2 (3.2) Addback on wage related credits 0.4 - 0.7 Tax exempt interest - - (0.2) Charitable contribution of inventory (1.1) (0.2) - Uncertain tax positions (3.5) 3.3 (1.0) Deferred rate change 0.1 (0.1) - Valuation allowance (2.1) (5.7) 2.6 Other (0.5) (4.0) (0.6) Effective income tax rate 5.4 % 34.8 % 16.9 %

Disclosures may include net deferred tax liability or asset recognized in an enterprise's statement of financial position, net change during the year in the total valuation allowance, approximate tax effect of each type of temporary difference and carryforward that gives rise to a significant portion of deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets, utilization of a tax carryback, and tax uncertainties information.

Reportable Segment Information [Abstract]
Reportable Segment Information	13. Reportable Segment Information: The Company has determined that it has four operating segments, as defined under ASC 280-10, including Cato, It’s Fashion, Versona and Credit. As outlined in ASC 280-10, the Company has two reportable segments: Retail and Credit. The Company has aggregated its three retail operating segments, including e-commerce, based on the aggregation criteria outlined in ASC 280-10, which states that two or more operating segments may be aggregated into a single reportable segment if aggregation is consistent with the objective and basic principles of ASC 280-10, which require the segments have similar economic characteristics, products, production processes, clients and methods of distribution. The Company’s retail operating segments have similar economic characteristics and similar operating, financial and competitive risks. They are similar in terms of product offered, as they all offer women’s apparel, shoes and accessories. Merchandise inventory of the Company’s retail operating segments is sourced from the same countries and some of the same vendors, using similar production processes. Merchandise for the Company’s retail operating segments is distributed to retail stores in a similar manner through the Company’s single distribution center and is subsequently distributed to clients in a similar manner. The Company offers its own credit card to its customers and all credit authorizations, payment processing, and collection efforts are performed by a separate subsidiary of the Company. The following schedule summarizes certain segment information (in thousands): ` Fiscal 2021 Retail Credit Total Revenues $ 767,205 $ 2,066 $ 769,271 Depreciation 12,354 2 12,356 Interest and other income 2,141 - 2,141 Income (loss) before taxes 38,340 625 38,965 Capital expenditures 4,101 4 4,105 Fiscal 2020 Retail Credit Total Revenues $ 572,453 $ 2,658 $ 575,111 Depreciation 14,680 1 14,681 Interest and other income 6,630 - 6,630 Income (loss) before taxes (73,972) 1,166 (72,806) Capital expenditures 13,955 1 13,956 Fiscal 2019 Retail Credit Total Revenues $ 821,730 $ 3,605 $ 825,335 Depreciation 15,484 1 15,485 Interest and other income 6,065 - 6,065 Income (loss) before taxes 41,386 1,821 43,207 Capital expenditures 8,287 19 8,306 Retail Credit Total Total assets as of January 29, 2022 $ 595,487 $ 38,279 $ 633,766 Total assets as of January 30, 2021 549,349 42,103 591,452 The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in Note 1.

	Jan. 29, 2022
Stock Based Compensation [Abstract]
Stock Based Compensation	14. Stock Based Compensation: As of January 29, 2022, the Company had two long-term compensation plans pursuant to which stock- based compensation was outstanding. The 2018 Incentive Compensation Plan and 2013 Incentive Compensation Plan are for the granting of various forms of equity-based awards, including restricted stock and stock options for grant, to officers, directors and key employees. Effective May 24, 2018, shares for grant were no longer available under the 2013 Incentive Compensation Plan. The following table presents the number of options and shares of restricted stock initially authorized and available for grant under each of the plans as of January 29, 2022: ` 2013 2018 Plan Plan Total Options and/or restricted stock initially authorized 1,500,000 4,725,000 6,225,000 Options and/or restricted stock available for grant: January 30, 2021 - 3,961,473 3,961,473 January 29, 2022 - 3,580,471 3,580,471 In accordance with ASC 718, the fair value of current restricted stock awards is estimated on the date of grant based on the market price of the Company’s stock and is amortized to compensation expense on a straight-line basis over a five-year vesting period. As of January 29, 2022, there was $ 11,096,000 of total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested restricted stock awards, which is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted-average vesting period of 2.3 years. The total grant date fair value of the shares recognized as compensation expense during the twelve months ended January 29, 2022, January 30, 2021 and February 1, 2020 was $ 4,055,000 , $ 4,023,000 and $ 4,559,000 , respectively. The expenses are classified as a component of Selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss). The following summary shows the changes in the shares of unvested restricted stock outstanding during the years ended January 29, 2022, January 30, 2021 and February 1, 2020: ` Weighted Average Number of Grant Date Fair Shares Value Per Share Restricted stock awards at February 2, 2019 771,851 $ 24.22 Granted 361,170 14.89 Vested (129,108) 34.44 Forfeited or expired (61,351) 19.61 Restricted stock awards at February 1, 2020 942,562 $ 19.55 Granted 335,317 11.11 Vested (129,682) 34.01 Forfeited or expired (124,241) 16.37 Restricted stock awards at January 30, 2021 1,023,956 $ 15.33 Granted 407,910 13.49 Vested (176,575) 22.22 Forfeited or expired (59,003) 13.95 Restricted stock awards at January 29, 2022 1,196,288 $ 13.76 The Company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan allows eligible full-time employees to purchase a limited number of shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock during each semi-annual offering period at a 15% discount through payroll deductions. During the twelve month period ended January 29, 2022, the Company sold 24,398 shares to employees at an average discount of $ 1.47 per share under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan. The compensation expense recognized for the 15% discount given under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan was approximately $ 36,000 , $ 69,000 and $ 111,000 for fiscal years 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. These expenses are classified as a component of Selling, general and administrative expenses.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	15. Commitments and Contingencies: The Company is, from time to time, involved in routine litigation incidental to the conduct of our business, including litigation regarding the merchandise that we sell, litigation regarding intellectual property, litigation instituted by persons injured upon premises under our control, litigation with respect to various employment matters, including alleged discrimination and wage and hour litigation, and litigation with present or former employees. Although such litigation is routine and incidental to the conduct of our business, as with any business of our size with a significant number of employees and significant merchandise sales, such litigation could result in large monetary awards. Based on information currently available, management does not believe that any reasonably possible losses arising from current pending litigation will have a material adverse effect on our Consolidated Financial Statements. However, given the inherent uncertainties involved in such matters, an adverse outcome in one or more such matters could materially and adversely affect the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows in any particular reporting period. The Company accrues for these matters when the liability is deemed probable and reasonably estimable.

Summary Of Accounting Policies - (Policies)	12 Months Ended
Summary Of Accounting Policies - (Policies)	Jan. 29, 2022
General Dsiclosure [Abstract]
Principles Of Consolidation	Principles of Consolidation: The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of The Cato Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Description of Fiscal Year	Description of Business and Fiscal Year: The Company has two reportable segments — the operation of a fashion specialty stores segment (“Retail Segment”) and a credit card segment (“Credit Segment”). The apparel specialty stores operate under the names “Cato,” “Cato Fashions,” “Cato Plus,” “It’s Fashion,” “It’s Fashion Metro” and “Versona,” including e-commerce websites. The stores are located primarily in strip shopping centers principally in the southeastern United States. The Company’s fiscal year ends on the Saturday nearest January 31 of the subsequent year.
Use Of Estimates	Use of Estimates: The preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Company’s financial statements include the allowance for customer credit losses, inventory shrinkage, the calculation of potential asset impairment, workers’ compensation, general and auto insurance liabilities, reserves relating to self-insured health insurance, and uncertain tax positions.
Cash And Cash Equivalents	Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.
Short-Term Investments	Short-Term Investments: Investments with original maturities beyond three months are classified as short-term investments. See Note 3 for the Company’s estimated fair value of, and other information regarding, its short-term investments. The Company’s short-term investments are all classified as available-for-sale. As they are available for current operations, they are classified on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as Current Assets. Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value, with unrealized gains and temporary losses, net of income taxes, reported as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive income. Other than temporary declines in the fair value of investments are recorded as a reduction in the cost of the investments in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets and a reduction of Interest and other income in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. The cost of debt securities is adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts to maturity. The amortization of premiums, accretion of discounts and realized gains and losses are included in Interest and other income.
Restricted Cash And Short-Term Investments	Restricted Cash and Restricted Short-term Investments: The Company had $ 3.9 million and $ 3.9 million in escrow at January 29, 2022 and January 30, 2021, respectively, as security and collateral for administration of the Company’s self-insured workers’ compensation and general liability coverage, which is reported as Restricted cash and Restricted short-term investments on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Supplemental Cash Flow Information	Supplemental Cash Flow Information: Income tax payments, net of refunds received, for the fiscal years ended January 29, 2022, January 30, 2021 and February 1, 2020 were a payment of $ 13,176,000 , a payment of $ 6,825,000 and a refund of $ 4,681,000 , respectively.
Inventories	Inventories: Merchandise inventories are stated at the net realizable value as determined by the weighted-average cost method.
PropertyAnd Equipment	Property and Equipment: Property and equipment are recorded at cost, including land. Maintenance and repairs are expensed to operations as incurred; renewals and betterments are capitalized. Depreciation is determined on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets excluding leasehold improvements. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the estimated useful life or lease term. For leases with renewal periods at the Company’s option, the Company generally uses the original lease term plus reasonably assured renewal option periods (generally one five-year option period) to determine estimated useful lives. Typical estimated useful lives are as follows: ` Estimated Classification Useful Lives Land improvements 10 years Buildings 30-40 years Leasehold improvements 5-10 years Fixtures and equipment 3-10 years Information technology equipment and software 3-10 years Aircraft 20 years
Impairment Of Long-Lived Assets	Impairment of Long-Lived Assets: The Company invests in leaseholds, right-of-use assets and equipment primarily in connection with the opening and remodeling of stores and in computer software and hardware. The Company periodically reviews its store locations and estimates the recoverability of its long- lived assets, which primarily relate to Fixtures and equipment, Leasehold improvements, Right-of-use assets net of Lease liabilities and Information technology equipment and software. An impairment charge is recorded for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value when the Company determines that projected cash flows associated with those long-lived assets will not be sufficient to recover the carrying value. This determination is based on a number of factors, including the store’s historical operating results and future projected cash flows, which include contribution margin projections. The Company assesses the fair value of each lease by considering market rents and any lease terms that may adjust market rents under certain conditions, such as the loss of an anchor tenant or a leased space in a shopping center not meeting certain criteria. Further, in determining when to close a store, the Company considers real estate development in the area and perceived local market conditions, which can be difficult to predict and may be subject to change. Asset impairment charges of $ 900,719 , $ 13,702,022 and $ 146,026 were incurred in fiscal 2021, fiscal 2020 and fiscal 2019, respectively.
Leases	Leases: In 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 842 - Leases , with amendments issued in 2018. The guidance requires lessees to recognize most leases on the balance sheet but does not change the manner in which expenses are recorded in the income statement. For lessors, the guidance modifies the classification criteria and the accounting for sales-type and direct financing leases. The Company utilized a comprehensive approach to assess the impact of this guidance on its financial statements and related disclosures, including the increase in the assets and liabilities on its balance sheet and the impact on its current lease portfolio from a lessee perspective. The Company completed its comprehensive review of its lease portfolio, which includes mostly store leases impacted by the new guidance. The Company reviewed its internal controls over leases and, as a result, the Company enhanced these controls; however, these changes are not considered material. In addition, the Company implemented a new software platform, and corresponding controls, for administering its leases and facilitating compliance with the new guidance. The Company elected the transition package of practical expedients that is permitted by the standard. The package of practical expedients allows the Company to not reassess previous accounting conclusions regarding whether existing arrangements are or contain leases, the classification of existing leases, and the treatment of initial direct costs. The Company did not elect the hindsight transition practical expedient allowed for by the new standard, which allows entities to use hindsight when determining lease term and impairment of right-of-use assets. The Company adopted ASC 842 utilizing the modified retrospective approach as of February 3, 2019. The modified retrospective approach the Company selected provides a method of transition allowing recognition of existing leases as of the beginning of the period of adoption (i.e., February 3, 2019), and which does not require the adjustment of comparative periods. See Note 11 for further information. The Company leases all of its retail stores. Most lease agreements contain construction allowances and rent escalations. For purposes of recognizing incentives and minimum rental expenses on a straight- line basis over the terms of the leases, including renewal periods considered reasonably assured, the Company begins amortization as of the initial possession date which is when the Company enters the space and begins to make improvements in preparation for intended use.
Revenue Recognition	Revenue Recognition: The Company recognizes sales at the point of purchase when the customer takes possession of the merchandise and pays for the purchase, generally with cash or credit. Sales from purchases made with Cato credit, gift cards and layaway sales from stores are also recorded when the customer takes possession of the merchandise. E-commerce sales are recorded when the risk of loss is transferred to the customer. Gift cards are recorded as deferred revenue until they are redeemed or forfeited. Layaway sales are recorded as deferred revenue until the customer takes possession or forfeits the merchandise. Gift cards do not have expiration dates. A provision is made for estimated merchandise returns based on sales volumes and the Company’s experience; actual returns have not varied materially from historical amounts. A provision is made for estimated write-offs associated with sales made with the Company’s proprietary credit card. Amounts related to shipping and handling billed to customers in a sales transaction are classified as Other revenue and the costs related to shipping product to customers (billed and accrued) are classified as Cost of goods sold. In accordance with ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“Topic 606”), in fiscal 2021, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized $ 1,482,000 , $ 891,000 and $ 921,000 , respectively, of income on unredeemed gift cards (“gift card breakage”) as a component of Other Revenue on the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss). Under Topic 606, the Company recognizes gift card breakage using an expected breakage percentage based on redeemed gift cards. See Note 2 for further information on miscellaneous income. The Company offers its own proprietary credit card to customers. All credit activity is performed by the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries. None of the credit card receivables are secured. The Company estimated customer credit losses of $ 485,000 and $ 435,000 for the twelve months ended January 29, 2022 and January 30, 2021, respectively, on sales purchased on the Company’s proprietary credit card of $ 18.7 million and $ 15.2 million for the twelve months ended January 29, 2022 and January 30, 2021, respectively. The following table provides information about receivables and contract liabilities from contracts with customers (in thousands): ` Balance as of January 29, 2022 January 30, 2021 Proprietary Credit Card Receivables, net $ 8,998 $ 9,606 Gift Card Liability $ 8,308 $ 8,155
Cost Of Goods Sold	Cost of Goods Sold: Cost of goods sold includes merchandise costs, net of discounts and allowances, buying costs, distribution costs, occupancy costs, freight, and inventory shrinkage. Net merchandise costs and in-bound freight are capitalized as inventory costs. Buying and distribution costs include payroll, payroll-related costs and operating expenses for our buying departments and distribution center. Occupancy expenses include rent, real estate taxes, insurance, common area maintenance, utilities and maintenance for stores and distribution facilities. Buying, distribution, occupancy and internal transfer costs are treated as period costs and are not capitalized as part of inventory. The direct costs associated with shipping goods to customers are recorded as a component of Cost of goods sold.
Stock Repurchase Program	Stock Repurchase Program: For the fiscal year ended January 29, 2022, the Company had 450,047 shares remaining in open authorizations. There is no specified expiration date for the Company’s repurchase program. Share repurchases are recorded in Retained earnings, net of par value. From year end through March 23, 2022, the Company repurchased 156,707 shares for $2,515,310. The Board of Directors increased the Company’s open share repurchase authorization by one million shares at the February 24, 2022 Board of Directors meeting.
Advertising	Advertising: Advertising costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. Advertising expense was approximately $ 6,037,000 , $ 4,385,000 and $ 5,600,000 for the fiscal years ended January 29, 2022, January 30, 2021 and February 1, 2020, respectively.
Earnings Per Share	Earnings Per Share: ASC 260 - Earnings Per Share requires dual presentation of basic EPS and diluted EPS on the face of all income statements for all entities with complex capital structures. The Company has presented one basic EPS and one diluted EPS amount for all common shares in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss). While the Company’s certificate of incorporation provides the right for the Board of Directors to declare dividends on Class A shares without declaration of commensurate dividends on Class B shares, the Company has historically paid the same dividends to both Class A and Class B shareholders and the Board of Directors has resolved to continue this practice. Accordingly, the Company’s allocation of income for purposes of EPS computation is the same for Class A and Class B shares and the EPS amounts reported herein are applicable to both Class A and Class B shares. Basic EPS is computed as net income less earnings allocated to non-vested equity awards divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur from common shares issuable through stock options and the Employee Stock Purchase Plan. The following table reflects the basic and diluted EPS calculations for the fiscal years ended January 29, 2022, January 30, 2021 and February 1, 2020: ` Fiscal Year Ended January 29, 2022 January 30, 2021 February 1, 2020 Numerator (Dollars in thousands) Net earnings (loss) $ 36,844 $ (47,483) $ 35,897 (Earnings) loss allocated to non-vested equity awards (1,937) 2,096 (1,280) Net earnings (loss) available to common stockholders $ 34,907 $ (45,387) $ 34,617 Denominator Basic weighted average common shares outstanding 21,113,828 22,536,090 23,738,443 Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding 21,113,828 22,536,090 23,738,443 Net income (loss) per common share Basic earnings (loss) per share $ 1.65 $ (2.01) $ 1.46 Diluted earnings (loss) per share $ 1.65 $ (2.01) $ 1.46
Income Taxes	Income Taxes: The Company files a consolidated federal income tax return. Income taxes are provided based on the asset and liability method of accounting, whereby deferred income taxes are provided for temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Unrecognized tax benefits for uncertain tax positions are established in accordance with ASC 740 – Income Taxes when, despite the fact that the tax return positions are supportable, the Company believes these positions may be challenged and the results are uncertain. The Company adjusts these liabilities in light of changing facts and circumstances. Potential accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits within operations are recognized as a component of Income before income taxes. The Company assesses the likelihood that deferred tax assets will be able to be realized, and based on that assessment, the Company will determine if a valuation allowance should be recorded. In addition, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act implemented a new minimum tax on global intangible low- taxed income (“GILTI”). The Company has elected to account for GILTI tax in the period in which it is incurred, which is included as a component of its current year provision for income taxes.
Store Opening Costs	Store Opening Costs: Costs relating to the opening of new stores or the relocating or expanding of existing stores are expensed as incurred. A portion of construction, design, and site selection costs are capitalized to new, relocated and remodeled stores.
Insurance	Insurance: The Company is self-insured with respect to employee health care, workers’ compensation and general liability. The Company’s self-insurance liabilities are based on the total estimated cost of claims filed and estimates of claims incurred but not reported, less amounts paid against such claims, and are not discounted. Management reviews current and historical claims data in developing its estimates. The Company has stop-loss insurance coverage for individual claims in excess of $ 325,000 for employee healthcare, $ 350,000 for workers’ compensation and $ 250,000 for general liability.
Fair Value Of Financial Instruments	Fair Value of Financial Instruments: The Company’s carrying values of financial instruments, such as cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, restricted cash and short-term investments, approximate their fair values due to their short terms to maturity and/or their variable interest rates.
Stock Based Compensation	Stock Based Compensation: The Company records compensation expense associated with restricted stock and other forms of equity compensation in accordance with ASC 718 - Compensation – Stock Compensation. Compensation cost associated with stock awards recognized in all years presented includes: 1) amortization related to the remaining unvested portion of all stock awards based on the grant date fair value and 2) adjustments for the effects of actual forfeitures versus initial estimated forfeitures.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	Recently Adopted Accounting Policies: In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes . The new accounting rules reduce complexity by removing specific exceptions to general principles related to intraperiod tax allocations, ownership changes in foreign investments, and interim period income tax accounting for year-to-date losses that exceed anticipated losses. The new accounting rules also simplify accounting for franchise taxes that are partially based on income, transactions with a government that result in a step up in the tax basis of goodwill, separate financial statements of legal entities that are not subject to tax, and enacted changes in tax laws in interim periods. The Company adopted this accounting standards update on the first day of the first quarter of 2021 with no material impact on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Other Asset Accounting Policy	Other Assets: Other assets are comprised of long-term assets, primarily insurance contracts related to deferred compensation assets and land held for investment purposes. ` Fiscal Year Ended January 29, 2022 January 30, 2021 (Dollars in thousands) Other Assets Deferred Compensation Investments $ 11,472 $ 11,264 Miscellaneous Investments 1,818 1,264 Other Deposits 1,319 522 Land Held for Investment 9,334 9,334 Other 494 466 Total Other Assets $ 24,437 $ 22,850
