Investment & Employee Stock Ownership Plan Opinion on the financial statements We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of Dillard’s, Inc.Investment & Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the “Plan”) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, therelated statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2025, andthe related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financialstatements present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as ofDecember 31, 2025 and 2024, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year endedDecember 31, 2025 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ofAmerica. Basis for opinion These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to expressan opinion on the Plan’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firmregistered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and arerequired to be independent with respect to the Plan in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws andthe applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that weplan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are freeof material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Plan is not required to have, nor were weengaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we arerequired to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose ofexpressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plan’s internal control over financial reporting.Accordingly, we express no such opinion. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financialstatements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Suchprocedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in thefinancial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significantestimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
