Current report
Throughout fiscal 2026, global textile demand remained weak resulting from geopolitical events and continued global trade uncertainty. However, certain demand began to improve in the second half of the fiscal year. Looking ahead, we believe our operations remain well-positioned to capture long-term growth opportunities, our liquidity position has improved significantly.
Current report
The Americas Segment experienced significant improvement due to higher manufacturing utilization and production levels after UNIFI implemented the Fiscal 2026 Profit Improvement Plan as a cost-saving initiative that included reducing variable manufacturing costs across labor, spend, and support functions, while also eliminating salaried positions in the U.S. In addition, in early March 2026, disruptions to certain supply routes associated with the Iran conflict resulted in a sharp increase in crude oil and related feedstock prices. As a result of higher raw material costs stemming from disruptions in the Middle East, UNIFI implemented responsive price increases and surcharges that began in April 2026 and are expected to continue while petrochemical-related inflation remains elevated.
Current report
In fiscal 2026, UNIFI recorded a foreign currency gain of $1,892. In December 2025, Brazil declared dividends against the majority of its retained earnings in connection with certain tax law changes related to future dividends. Foreign currency transaction gains (losses) are recorded to reflect changes in the exchange rate of the Brazilian Real to the U.S. Dollar while the dividend payable is outstanding.

Foreign currency transaction gains (losses) are recorded to reflect changes in the exchange rate of the Brazilian Real to the U.S. Dollar while the dividend payable is outstanding. The associated tax impact was estimated to be $488, based on the relevant jurisdiction's statutory tax rate for the period.
Current report
In fiscal 2026, UNIFI recorded employee separation costs of $1,093 in connection with the Fiscal 2026 Profit Improvement Plan and a $308 gain from disposals of assets from the consolidation of Americas yarn manufacturing operations. The associated tax impact was estimated to be $11 related to employee separation costs in the Asia Segment. In fiscal 2024, UNIFI incurred severance costs of $2,351 in connection with the Profitability Improvement Plan in the U.S. and a loss of $2,750 related to the dissolution of a nylon joint venture.
Current report
Consolidated net sales for fiscal 2026 decreased by $40,041, or 7.0%, and consolidated sales volumes decreased 5.1%, compared to fiscal 2025. Net sales in fiscal 2026 were lower primarily due to (i) lower sales volumes in the Asia Segment, (ii) lower sales volumes and lower-priced sales mix in the Americas Segment, and (iii) lower sales volumes and prices in the Brazil Segment. Overall sales remain depressed, particularly in the Americas and Asia Segments as a result of continued volatility from uncertainty over ongoing geopolitical events, global trade policies, and competition from lower-priced products. Additionally, UNIFI’s strategic pricing initiatives in the Americas Segment led to a decline in lower-margin sales.
Current report
Gross profit for fiscal 2026 increased to $30,456 from $8,418 in fiscal 2025. Gross profit increased primarily due to (i) variable cost-saving initiatives and (ii) improved utilization in certain manufacturing areas. This increase was partially offset by (a) lower sales volumes and (b) production volatility from an inability to forecast demand due to the uncertainty caused by geopolitical events and tariffs impacting the Americas Segment. Gross profit continues to be unfavorably impacted by demand volatility in the Americas Segment and import pricing pressures in the Brazil Segment.
Current report
Americas Segment gross profit increased primarily due to overall cost-saving initiatives, including reductions in manufacturing costs from the consolidation of Americas yarn manufacturing operations and the Fiscal 2026 Profit Improvement Plan, partially offset by demand and production volatility stemming from geopolitical events and tariff uncertainty.

Current report
The increase in Segment Profit for the Americas Segment from fiscal 2025 to fiscal 2026 was primarily attributable to overall cost-saving initiatives, including reductions in manufacturing costs from the consolidation of Americas yarn manufacturing operations and the Fiscal 2026 Profit Improvement Plan, contributing to improved facility utilization.
Current report
The decrease in net sales for the Brazil Segment from fiscal 2025 to fiscal 2026 was primarily attributable to (i) lower selling prices associated with competitive import pricing pressures and (ii) lower sales volumes due to market conditions, partially offset by favorable foreign currency translation effects from the strengthening of the BRL versus the USD.
Current report
The decrease in net sales for the Asia Segment from fiscal 2025 to fiscal 2026 was primarily attributable to (i) an overall decrease in sales volumes due to competitive pricing pressures and the continued volatility stemming from geopolitical events and tariffs and (ii) a change in sales mix of REPREVE products, partially offset by favorable foreign currency translation effects from the strengthening of the RMB versus the USD.
Current report
Net debt decreased from fiscal 2025 to fiscal 2026 primarily due to improved operating cash flow generation, driven by higher gross profit and lower working capital levels, which enabled the Company to repay $16,300 on its ABL Facility reducing overall debt principal.

Previous report
During fiscal 2020, our financial results began to improve following more stable import and raw material cost environments. However, the COVID-19 pandemic had a significant unfavorable impact to product demand and our annual profitability suffered accordingly. Near the end of fiscal 2020, we divested a minority interest investment and significantly improved our liquidity position, supporting business preservation and the ability to capture long-term growth opportunities.
Previous report
The Americas Segment experienced lower than anticipated manufacturing utilization and production levels, despite stable raw material costs during fiscal 2025. In response to these challenges, we initiated a plan to transition the Madison, North Carolina manufacturing operations to other production facilities in North and Central America.
Previous report
For the majority of our portfolio, we were able to implement selling price adjustments throughout fiscal 2022 in response to rising inputs costs. Despite the responsive selling price increases, we still experienced meaningful gross profit pressure during fiscal 2022 and 2023, primarily from the U.S. labor shortage and speed at which input costs increased. In fiscal 2024, we experienced stable raw material prices for most of the fiscal year, although lower REPREVE sales to apparel markets impacted our profitability. In fiscal 2025, the Americas and Asia Segments experienced lower input and freight costs, but the demand volatility and uncertainty persisted. The Brazil Segment had increased raw material costs for the majority of the fiscal year coupled with pricing pressure from low-cost imports limiting its ability to recover all of the higher costs.
Previous report
In fiscal 2023, UNIFI abandoned certain specialized machinery in the Americas and recorded an impairment charge. The impairment charge was recorded to reflect the lack of future positive cash flows associated with the machinery, following multiple years of investment recovery since its fiscal 2017 installation.
Previous report
In fiscal 2023, UNIFI amended certain existing contracts related to future purchases of texturing machinery by delaying the scheduled receipt and installation of such equipment for approximately 18 months. UNIFI paid the associated vendor $623 to establish the 18-month delay.
Previous report
In fiscal 2023, UNIFI abandoned certain specialized machinery in the Americas and recorded an impairment charge. The associated tax impact was estimated to be $0 due to a valuation allowance against net operating losses in the U.S.
Previous report
In fiscal 2023, UNIFI amended certain existing contracts related to future purchases of texturing machinery by delaying the scheduled receipt and installation of such equipment in the U.S. and El Salvador for 18 months. UNIFI paid the associated vendor $623 to establish the 18-month delay. The associated tax impact was estimated to be $0 due to (i) a valuation allowance against net operating losses in the U.S. and (ii) UNIFI's effective tax rate in El Salvador.
Previous report
In fiscal 2023, UNIFI recorded a recovery of income taxes in connection with filing amended tax returns in Brazil relating to certain income taxes paid in prior fiscal years following favorable legal rulings in fiscal 2023.
Previous report
Consolidated net sales for fiscal 2024 decreased by $41,318, or 6.6%, and consolidated sales volumes increased 8.2%, compared to fiscal 2023. Despite sales volume improvements in each of the reportable segments, volumes remain depressed, particularly in the Americas and Asia Segments as a result of continued customer-demand headwinds.
Previous report
Consolidated weighted average sales prices decreased 14.8% which drove the decrease in net sales. The decrease in sales prices was primarily attributable to (i) lower selling prices in response to lower raw material input costs and (ii) a greater mix of Chip and Flake sales, both particularly in the Americas Segment, together with (iii) competitive pricing pressures in Brazil.
Previous report
REPREVE Fiber products for fiscal 2024 comprised 32%, or $188,517, of consolidated net sales, up from 30%, or $186,161, for fiscal 2023.
Previous report
Gross profit for fiscal 2024 increased by $2,375, or 16.7%, compared to fiscal 2023. Gross profit increased primarily due to (i) increased sales volumes, (ii) variable cost saving initiatives, (iii) improved productivity, and (iv) more stable raw material costs. These were partially offset by (a) higher manufacturing costs and (b) lower conversion margins. However, gross profit continues to be unfavorably impacted by low manufacturing utilization in the Americas Segment, where utilization and productivity remain below expected levels due to depressed demand.
Previous report
For the Americas Segment, gross profit declined primarily due to (i) higher manufacturing costs and (ii) lower conversion margins. These were partially offset by (i) higher sales volumes, (ii) variable cost management efforts, and (ii) a more stable raw material cost environment.
Previous report
For the Brazil Segment, gross profit increased primarily due to higher sales volumes from market share gains and favorable foreign currency translation effects, partially offset by decreasing market prices in Brazil due to low-cost import competition.
Previous report
For the Asia Segment, gross profit increased primarily due to (i) a strong sales mix and (ii) higher sales volumes compared to fiscal 2023, despite continued macro-driven customer-demand headwinds.
Previous report
SG&A expenses decreased from fiscal 2023, primarily due to lower marketing, compensation, and amortization expenses.

Loss (Earnings) from Unconsolidated Affiliates
Previous report
Adjusted EBITDA decreased from $(4,085) for fiscal 2023 to $(5,197) for fiscal 2024, primarily due to higher bad debt expense, lower earnings from unconsolidated affiliates, and other operating expenses, net.
Previous report
Adjusted Net Loss increased from $(41,273) for fiscal 2023 to $(42,294) for fiscal 2024, primarily due to higher bad debt expense, lower earnings from unconsolidated affiliates, and a decrease in other operating expenses, net.
Previous report
The decrease in net sales for the Americas Segment from fiscal 2023 to fiscal 2024 was primarily attributable to the net change in average selling price and sales mix that included lower raw material input costs, partially offset by an increase in sales volumes. Both periods were unfavorably impacted by customer-demand headwinds and the volatile global textile demand environment.
Previous report
The decrease in Segment Profit for the Americas Segment from fiscal 2023 to fiscal 2024 was primarily attributable to (i) higher manufacturing costs and (ii) lower conversion margins. Segment Profit for the Americas Segment continues to be negatively impacted by a lower proportion of fiber sales volumes. As fiber products carry a higher selling price and allocation of production costs versus Chip and Flake, lower fiber production drives weaker manufacturing utilization and adversely impacts gross profit and gross margin. These negative impacts were partially offset by variable cost management efforts, more stable raw material costs and an increase in sales volumes in fiscal 2024.
Previous report
The decrease in net sales for the Brazil Segment from fiscal 2023 to fiscal 2024 was primarily attributable to lower average selling prices due to pressure from low-priced import competition, partially offset by (i) an improvement in sales volumes from market share gains and (ii) favorable foreign currency translation effects from the strengthening of the BRL versus the USD.
Previous report
The increase in net sales for the Asia Segment from fiscal 2023 to fiscal 2024 was primarily attributable to improved sales volumes despite continued macro-driven customer-demand headwinds and inventory destocking by brands and retailers, particularly for apparel. This was partially offset by (i) unfavorable foreign currency translation effects due to the weakening of the RMB versus the USD and (ii) the changes in average selling prices and sales mix.
Previous report
The increase in Segment Profit for the Asia Segment from fiscal 2023 to fiscal 2024 was attributable to (i) the increase in sales volumes discussed above and (ii) an improved gross margin rate associated with a strong sales mix of REPREVE products, partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency translation effects.
Previous report
Recognizing the continuing weak demand environment, in fiscal 2023, UNIFI negotiated a contract modification with an equipment vendor from which significant capital expenditures had occurred and were planned to continue through September 2024. The contract modification was executed at a cost to UNIFI of $623 and allowed UNIFI to delay the associated equipment purchases and installation activities for 18 months, deferring approximately $25,000 of capital expenditures. In fiscal 2024, UNIFI extended this delay by an additional 12 months at no cost to the Company. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, UNIFI terminated the overall contract in exchange for the forfeiture of $1,448 in deposits. These actions allow for (i) improved short- and mid-term liquidity in light of the current subdued levels of sales and facility utilization and (ii) a better matching of future capital expenditures with the consolidation of UNIFI's yarn manufacturing operations.
Previous report
In connection with entering into the 2022 Credit Agreement, UNIFI recorded a $273 loss on debt extinguishment to interest expense in fiscal 2023 related to its prior debt instrument.
Previous report
Construction Financing
Previous report
In May 2021, UNIFI entered into an agreement with a third party lender that provides for construction-period financing for certain texturing machinery included in our capital allocation plans. UNIFI records project costs to construction in progress and the corresponding liability to construction financing (within long-term debt). The agreement provides for monthly, interest-only payments during the construction period, at a rate of SOFR plus 1.25%, and contains terms customary for a financing of this type.
Previous report
Each borrowing under the agreement provides for 60 monthly payments, which will commence upon the completion of the construction period with a fixed interest rate of approximately SOFR plus 1.0% to 1.2%. In connection with this construction financing arrangement, UNIFI has borrowed a total of $9,755 and transitioned $9,755 of completed asset costs to finance lease obligations as of June 29, 2025. No borrowings occurred during fiscal 2025.

During fiscal 2026, we expect the majority of our capital will be deployed to support further working capital needs in response to the demand environment and product sales. However, given the current global economic risks, we are prepared to act swiftly and diligently to ensure the vitality of the business. Our recent actions, specifically the transition of our Madison operations to other production facilities within North and Central America, will improve our operational efficiency as a result of the cost savings that will be realized. Furthermore, the sale of the Madison manufacturing facility allowed us to repay a portion of the principal balance of the term loan and revolving credit facility outstanding under the 2022 Credit Agreement lowering our future debt service costs.

Our recent actions, specifically the transition of our Madison operations to other production facilities within North and Central America, will continue to provide better operational efficiency as a result of the cost savings that have been realized. We have also entered into an agreement to sell certain non-strategic real estate assets in North Carolina, and the closing of this transaction would have a significant positive impact to deleveraging the balance sheet and operating structure.

Previous wording
The decrease in receivables, net was primarily due to the overall decrease in sales and the timing of cash receipts. The decrease in inventories was primarily attributable to concerted efforts to reduce inventory levels in response to the depressed demand environment and in relation to the consolidation of yarn manufacturing operations with the closure of the Madison, North Carolina facility. The decrease in other current assets was primarily due to the fiscal 2025 sale of a warehouse in Yadkinville, North Carolina previously classified in assets held for sale in fiscal 2024. The decrease in accounts payable followed the decrease in inventories and production activity in fiscal 2025. The increase in other current liabilities primarily reflects the change in compensation-related accruals in fiscal 2025 and the timing of payroll and operating expense payments between the two period-ends. The increase in income taxes receivable was primarily due to a reclassification of Brazil’s income tax recovery from other non-current assets to income taxes receivable due to the expectation of realizing the tax benefit within 12 months. The change in income taxes payable, current operating lease liabilities, and current portion of long-term debt were insignificant.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. ASU No. 2023-09 modifies the rules on income tax disclosures to require entities to disclose (i) specific categories in the rate reconciliation, (ii) the income or loss from continuing operations before income tax expense or benefit (separated between domestic and foreign) and (iii) income tax expense or benefit from continuing operations (separated by federal, state, and foreign). The ASU also requires entities to disclose their income tax payments to international, federal, state, and local jurisdictions, among other changes. The ASU is effective for UNIFI's fiscal 2026, with early adoption permitted, and should be applied on a prospective basis, but retrospective application is permitted. UNIFI is currently evaluating the impact on the Company’s disclosures but does not expect this standard will have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
