Item 1.

Security and Issuer

This Schedule 13D relates to the common stock, no par value per share (the “Common Stock”) of Kirkland’s Inc., a Tennessee corporation (the “Issuer”). The principal executive office of the Issuer is located at 5310 Maryland Way, Brentwood, TN 37027. The Reporting Persons (as defined below) previously filed a Schedule 13G on August 24, 2020, as amended on January 18, 2022, April 28, 2022 and December 21, 2022 (the “Schedule 13G”). This Schedule 13D constitutes a fourth amendment of the Schedule 13G.

Item 2.

Identity and Background.

(a) This Schedule 13D is being filed by John H. Lewis, the controlling member of Osmium Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Osmium Partners”), which serves as the general partner of Osmium Capital, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Fund I”), Osmium Capital II, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Fund II”), Osmium Spartan, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Fund III”), and Osmium Diamond, LP a Delaware limited partnership (“Fund IV” and together with Fund I, Fund II and Fund III, the “Funds”) (all of the foregoing, collectively, the “Reporting Persons”). The Reporting Person and Osmium Partners may be deemed to share with the Funds (and not with any third party) voting and dispositive power with respect to such shares. Each Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership with respect to any shares other than the shares owned directly by such Reporting Person.

(b) The principal business office of the Reporting Persons is 5 Ross Ave, San Anselmo, CA 94960.

(c) The principal business of each of the Funds is that of a private investment vehicle engaged in investing and trading in a wide variety of securities and financial instruments for its own account. The principal business of Osmium Partners is providing investment management services and serving as the general partner of the Funds. Mr. Lewis’ principal occupation is serving as the Managing Member of Osmium Partners.

(d) During the past five years, no Reporting Person has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors).

(e) During the past five years, no Reporting Person has been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

(f) Mr. Lewis is a citizen of the United States. The other Reporting Persons were organized in the State of Delaware.

The source and amount of funds (excluding commissions) used by the Reporting Persons in making their purchase of the shares of Common Stock owned by each of them in the aggregate was $18 million from working capital.

One or more of the Reporting Persons effect purchases of securities through margin accounts which may extend margin credit to the Reporting Persons as and when required to open or carry positions in the margin accounts, subject to applicable federal margin regulations, stock exchange rules and brokers' credit policies. In such instances, the positions held in the margin accounts are pledged as collateral security for the repayment of debit balances in the accounts.

Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction.

The Reporting Persons purchased the Common Stock based on the belief that such securities, when purchased, were undervalued and represented an attractive investment opportunity. Although no Reporting Person has any specific plan or proposal to acquire or dispose of the Common Stock, consistent with its investment purpose, each Reporting Person at any time and from time to time may acquire additional Common Stock or dispose of any or all of its Common Stock depending upon an ongoing evaluation of the investment in the Common Stock, prevailing market conditions, other investment opportunities, liquidity requirements of the Reporting Persons, and/or other investment considerations. The purpose of the acquisitions of the Common Stock was for investment, and the acquisitions of the Common Stock were made in the ordinary course of business and were not made for the purpose of acquiring control of the Issuer.

On May 24, 2024, the Reporting Persons delivered a letter to the Issuer’s board of directors stating, among other things, the belief that the Issuer is materially undervalued and urging the Issuer’s board of directors to consider a transaction with a strategic buyer or partner and for the Issuer to hold an investor day before June 26, 2024. The letter is attached as Exhibit 3 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.

Except as disclosed above, none of the Reporting Persons has any other plans or proposals which relate to, or would result in, any of the matters referred to in paragraphs (a) through (j), inclusive, of the instructions to Item 4 of Schedule 13D. The Reporting Persons may, at any time and from time to time, review or reconsider their position and/or change their purpose and/or formulate plans or proposals with respect thereto.

Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

(a)-(b) The information contained in lines 7 to 11 and 13 of the cover pages of this Schedule 13D is incorporated herein by reference. The percentage ownership reflected in line 13 of the cover pages is based on 12,926,022 shares of Common Stock outstanding on March 18, 2024, as disclosed in the Issuer’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 29, 2024.

(c) None of the Reporting Persons have effected any transaction in Common Stock during the past sixty (60) days.

(d) To the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, no other person has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds of the sale of, the securities that are the subject of this Schedule 13D.

(e) Not applicable.

Item 6.

Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

On April 28, 2022, the Reporting Persons entered into a Joint Filing Agreement in which the Reporting Persons agreed to the joint filing on behalf of each of them of statements on Schedule 13D with respect to securities of the Issuer, to the extent required by applicable law. The Joint Filing Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 2 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 7.

Material to be Filed as Exhibits.

After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief, I certify that the information set forth in this statement is true, complete and correct.
