**Exhibit 99.1**

**Destination XL Group, Inc. Reports Holiday Sales Results**

Updates 2022 Full Year Sales Guidance to Upper Half of Range and Announces New Exclusive Merchandise Brands

CANTON, Mass., January 9, 2023 – Destination XL Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: DXLG), the leading integrated commerce retailer of Big + Tall men's clothing and shoes, today announced the following results for the 9-week holiday sales period ended December 31, 2022 (unaudited):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Total sales were $111.7 million compared to $106.6 million for the 9-week holiday sales period ended January 1, 2022.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Comparable sales for the same 9-week holiday period increased 7.5%, with a comparable sales increase of 8.9% from stores and 4.9% from the direct business.

Based on the holiday sales and expectations for the remainder of the fourth quarter, the Company is updating its guidance toward the upper half of its sales range for fiscal 2022 as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Total sales for fiscal 2022 are expected to be $540.0 million to $545.0 million, or the upper half of its previous guidance of $535.0 million to $545.0 million.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Adjusted EBITDA margin of 12.5% to 13.5%, unchanged from previous guidance. Adjusted EBITDA margin is a non-GAAP financial measure. <sup>(1)</sup>

"We are pleased with our sales results during this nine-week holiday period which we believe demonstrates the power of the brand's transformational repositioning resonating with Big + Tall men. Both our stores and our direct business performed well this holiday season and we were able to drive our sales at regular price, only deploying promotions to address customer file and inventory opportunities. Today we are updating our sales guidance toward the upper half of the range for fiscal 2022," said Harvey Kanter, President and Chief Executive Officer.

"I am also pleased to announce that DXL will be launching two new national merchandise brands that will be exclusive to DXL in Big + Tall sizes. Life is Good and Original Penguin Golf will be available both on our website and in selected stores starting in the Spring 2023 season. At DXL, Big + Tall is all we do and we trade on the belief that we offer superior fit, assortment, and experience to him. We believe this leads to a relationship with our customers that is built on respect, trust, and belonging. We exist to provide the Big + Tall man with the freedom to choose his own style, to wear what he wants to wear. Both of these brands will further enhance our exclusive assortment," Kanter concluded.

The Company plans to report its actual fourth-quarter and fiscal 2022 financial results on March 16, 2023, when management also will conduct its quarterly conference call to discuss its results. The earnings call will be hosted by Harvey Kanter, President and Chief Executive Officer, and Peter Stratton, Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer, and Treasurer.

_______

(1) The Company has not provided guidance for net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure to adjusted EBITDA margin. To do so would require unreasonable efforts at this time to estimate and quantify, with a reasonable degree of certainty, various necessary GAAP components, specifically those related to tax items, that are reconciling items between net income and EBITDA. However, such tax items could have a material impact on the amount of the directly comparable net income GAAP measure and may differ significantly from non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA margin. See also "Non-GAAP Measures" below.

**<u>2023 ICR Conference</u>**

Destination XL Group, Inc. will participate in the 2023 ICR Conference to be held at the JW Marriott Orlando Grande Lakes in Orlando, Florida on January 9-11, 2023. Management is scheduled to present on Monday, January 9, 2023. The presentation will be hosted by Harvey Kanter, President and Chief Executive Officer, and John Cooney, Senior Vice President, Chief Accounting Officer & Corporate Controller. An audio of the presentation will be webcast live at 8:30 a.m. on January 9, 2023 at https://wsw.com/webcast/icr8/dxlg/1603210 and available for replay in the Investor Relations section of Destination XL's website at investor.destinationxl.com.

**<u>Non-GAAP Measures</u>**

In addition to financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), this press release contains a projection for adjusted EBITDA margin for fiscal 2022, a non-GAAP measure. The presentation of this non-GAAP measure is not in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered superior to or as a substitute for net income, or any other measure of performance derived in accordance with GAAP. In addition, not all companies calculate non-GAAP financial measures in the same manner and, accordingly, this non-GAAP measure presented in this release may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. The Company believes the inclusion of this non-GAAP measure help investors gain a better understanding of the Company's performance, especially when comparing such results to previous periods, and that it is useful as an additional means for investors to evaluate the Company's operating results, when reviewed in conjunction with the Company's GAAP financial statements.

Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and adjusted for asset impairment charges. Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as adjusted EBITDA divided by total sales. The Company believes that providing adjusted EBITDA margin is useful to investors to evaluate the Company's performance and are key metrics to measure profitability and economic productivity.

This presentation regarding Destination XL Group, Inc. ("the Company", "Destination XL", "DXLG", "we", "us" or "our") is for you to familiarize yourself with the Company. This presentation contains information, statements, beliefs and opinions which are forward-looking, and which reflect current estimates, expectations and projections about future events, referred to herein and which constitute "forward-looking statements" or "forward-looking information" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this document, regarding our strategy, future operations, financial position, prospects, plans and objectives of management are forward-looking statements. Statements containing the words "could", "believe", "expect", "intend", "should", "seek", "anticipate", "will", "positioned", "project", "risk", "plan", "may", "estimate" or, in each case, their negative and words of similar meaning are intended to identify forward-looking statements. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond the Company's control, concerning, among other things, the global COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on the Company's results of operations; the impact of rising inflation and the Russian invasion on Ukraine on the global economy; supply chain challenges due to ongoing global supply chain disruption; potential labor shortages; and the Company's ability to execute on its digital and store strategy and ability to grow its market share, predict customer tastes and fashion trends, forecast sales growth trends and compete successfully in the United States men's big and tall apparel market, that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. These risks, uncertainties and assumptions could adversely affect the outcome and financial effects of the plans and events described herein. In addition, even if the outcome and financial effects of the plans and events described herein are consistent with the forward-looking statements contained in this presentation, those results or developments may not be indicative of results or developments in subsequent periods. Although the Company has attempted to identify important risks and factors that could cause actual actions, events or results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking information, there may be other factors and risks that cause actions, events or results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. Forward-looking information contained in this presentation is based on the Company's current estimates, expectations and projections, which the Company believes are reasonable as of the current date. The Company can give no assurance that these estimates, expectations and projections will prove to have been correct. Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. All statements contained in this presentation are made only as of the date of this presentation, and the Company undertakes no duty to update this information unless required by law. You are also reminded that during this presentation, certain non-GAAP financial measures, such as Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and free cash flow, may be discussed. These measures should not be considered an alternative to net income, cash provided by operating activities, or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). These measures are not necessarily comparable to a similarly titled measure of another company. Please refer to our reconciliations of these discussed figures with the most comparable GAAP measures. The Company has not reconciled forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin to its most directly comparable GAAP measure, as such reconciliation would require unreasonable efforts at this time to estimate and quantify with a reasonable degree of certainty various GAAP components, specifically related to tax items. These components and other factors could materially impact the amount of the future comparable GAAP measure, which may differ significantly from non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin.

"I came into the store stressed out and feeling pretty demeaned by the fact that no-one in the community felt it was worth stocking clothing that could fit someone my size. I left the store feeling respected, understood, and like there was nothing really wrong with me as an individual." - Thomas; Reno, NV (Customer)

"At DXL, Big + Tall is all we do – and our positioning is in direct contrast to other retailers. The Big + Tall man has largely been ignored by the broader apparel industry. Few brands, fewer styles, and sizing based on someone else's definition of 'regular' limit him every time he tries to find clothing. While most retailers of men's apparel offer some level of a big and tall assortment to their customers, it is often a single rack or a small sub-department – for no other omni-channel retailer is it their top priority. We trade on the belief that we offer superior fit, assortment, and experience to him, period. We believe this leads to a relationship with our customers that is built on respect, trust, and belonging". - Harvey Kanter, President and CEO AT DXL, BIG + TALL IS ALL WE DO…

Store opportunities and development will drive growth We have identified three distinct cohorts which represent opportunities to grow and enhance our store portfolio by driving greater levels of traffic, improved conversion and higher average order value: WHITE SPACE MARKETS CASUAL MALE STORES DXL STORE REMODEL There are undeveloped pockets of the country that have meaningful trade areas and an addressable big + tall market with no DXL presence. Our legacy Casual Male portfolio can leverage the DXL brand to drive greater store productivity by converting-in-place our existing stores. Certain stores withing our existing DXL fleet will be optimized to better reflect the DXL brand message through a combination of exterior and interior remodel projects. Est.

Store Growth & Development financials are Improving We believe there is opportunity to grow our store portfolio by up to 50 new stores in whitespace markets in the next few years. We also believe up to 80 existing CMXL and DXL stores will become more productive through our remodel strategy. We expect a meaningful lift in Sales per square foot and a healthy return on invested capital. WHITE SPACE STORES CMXL STORES DXL REMODEL STORES Full Store Incremental \* Incremental \* $(000s) % Sq.
