Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
- Background
Overview
Unifi, Inc., a New York corporation formed in 1969 (together with its subsidiaries, “UNIFI,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), is a multinational company that manufactures and sells innovative recycled and synthetic products, made from polyester and nylon, primarily to other yarn manufacturers and knitters and weavers (UNIFI’s “direct customers”) that produce yarn and/or fabric for the apparel, hosiery, home furnishings, automotive, industrial, medical, and other end-use markets (UNIFI’s “indirect customers”). We sometimes refer to these indirect customers as “brand partners.” Polyester products include partially oriented yarn (“POY”) and textured, solution and package dyed, twisted, beamed, and draw wound yarns, and each is available in virgin or recycled varieties. Recycled solutions, made from both pre-consumer and post-consumer waste, include plastic bottle flake (“Flake”), polyester polymer beads, and staple fiber. Nylon products include virgin or recycled textured, solution dyed, and spandex covered yarns.
UNIFI maintains one of the textile industry’s most comprehensive product offerings that include a range of specialized, value-added and commodity solutions, with principal geographic markets in North America, Central America, South America, Asia, and Europe. UNIFI has direct manufacturing operations infour countries and participates in a joint venture operating in the United States (the “U.S.”).
All amounts, except per share amounts, are presented in thousands (000s), unless otherwise noted.
Fiscal Year
The fiscal year for Unifi, Inc., its domestic subsidiaries, and its subsidiary in El Salvador ends on the Sunday in June or July nearest to June 30 of each year. Unifi, Inc.’s fiscal 2026, 2025, and 2024 ended on June 28, 2026, June 29, 2025, and June 30, 2024, respectively. Unifi, Inc.’s remaining material operating subsidiaries’ fiscal years end on June 30. For fiscal 2026 and 2025, there were no significant transactions or events that occurred between Unifi, Inc.’s fiscal year end and such wholly owned subsidiaries’ fiscal year ends. Unifi, Inc.’s fiscal 2026, 2025, and 2024 each consisted of 52 weeks.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications of prior fiscal years’ data within the effective tax rate, deferred income taxes, and unrecognized tax benefits reconciliations in Note 14, "Income Taxes," and within Other operating (income) expenses, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations have been made to conform to the current presentation.
- Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
UNIFI follows U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The significant accounting policies described below, together with the other notes to the accompanying consolidated financial statements that follow, are an integral part of the consolidated financial statements. UNIFI evaluated GAAP requirements for the consideration of forecasted financial information, including, but not limited to, the carrying value of long-lived assets in context with the information reasonably available to UNIFI and the unknown future impacts of the economic environment as of June 28, 2026 and through the date of this filing.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Unifi, Inc. and its subsidiaries in which it maintains a controlling financial interest. All account balances and transactions between Unifi, Inc. and the subsidiaries which it controls have been eliminated. For transactions with entities accounted for under the equity method, any intercompany profits on amounts still remaining within inventory are eliminated. Amounts originating from any deferral of intercompany profits are recorded within the account balance to which the transaction specifically relates (e.g., inventory). Only upon settlement of the intercompany transaction with a third party is the deferral of the intercompany profit recognized by UNIFI.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, certain financial statement disclosures at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. UNIFI’s consolidated financial statements include amounts that are based on management’s best estimates and judgments. Actual results may vary from these estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents are defined as highly liquid, short-term investments having an original maturity of three months or less. Book overdrafts, for which the bank has not advanced cash, if any, are reclassified to accounts payable and reflected as an offset thereto within the accompanying consolidated statements of cash flows.
Receivables
Receivables are stated net of expected lifetime credit losses. Allowances are provided for known and potential losses arising from quality claims and for amounts owed by customers. Reserves for quality claims have not been material and are based on historical claim experience and known pending claims and are recorded as a reduction of net sales. The allowance for uncollectible accounts is recorded against operating income and reflects UNIFI’s best estimate of probable losses inherent in its accounts receivable portfolio determined on the basis of historical write off experience, aging of trade receivables, specific allowances for known troubled accounts, and other currently available information. Customer accounts are written off against the allowance for uncollectible accounts when they are no longer deemed to be collectible.
Inventories
UNIFI’s inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with the cost for the majority of its inventories determined using the first-in, first-out method. Certain foreign inventories and limited categories of supplies are valued using the average cost method. UNIFI’s estimates for net realizable value related to obsolete, slow-moving, or excess inventories are based upon many factors, including historical recovery rates, inventory age, the expected net realizable value of specific products, and current economic conditions.
Debt Issuance Costs
Debt issuance costs for revolving credit arrangements are recorded to other non-current assets. All other debt issuance costs are recorded against long-term debt and amortized as additional interest expense using the effective interest method. In the event of any prepayment of its debt obligations, UNIFI accelerates the recognition of a pro-rata amount of issuance costs.
Property, Plant, and Equipment
Property, plant, and equipment (“PP&E”) are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation. Plant and equipment under finance leases are stated at the present value of minimum lease payments less accumulated amortization. Additions or improvements that substantially extend the useful life of a particular asset are capitalized. Depreciation is calculated primarily utilizing the straight-line method over the following useful lives:
| Asset categories | Useful lives in years |
|---|---|
| Land improvements | 5 to 20 |
| Buildings and improvements | 7 to 40 |
| Machinery and equipment | 2 to 25 |
| Computer, software and office equipment | 3 to 7 |
| Internal software development costs | 3 |
| Transportation equipment | 3 to 15 |
Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the lesser of their estimated useful lives or the remaining term of the lease.
Assets under finance leases are amortized in a manner consistent with UNIFI’s normal depreciation policy if ownership is transferred by the end of the lease or if there is a bargain purchase option. If such ownership criteria are not met, amortization occurs over the shorter of the lease term or the asset’s useful life.
UNIFI capitalizes eligible costs of developing internal software when the software is used as an integral part of its manufacturing or business processes. Internal software costs are amortized over a period ofthree years and, in accordance with the nature of the project, charged to cost of sales or selling, general, and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses.
Fully depreciated assets are retained in cost and accumulated depreciation accounts until they are disposed. In the case of disposals, asset costs and related accumulated depreciation amounts are removed from the accounts, and the net amounts, less proceeds from disposal, are included in the determination of net loss and presented within (Gain) loss on sales and disposals of assets. For fiscal 2025, certain machinery and equipment that was disposed of as part of the consolidation of yarn manufacturing operations resulted in $762 of net losses that were included within Restructuring costs in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. These net losses were included within the (Gain) loss on sales and disposals of assets in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows together with the net gains realized on the sale of the Yadkinville, North Carolina warehouse and Madison, North Carolina manufacturing facility that occurred during fiscal 2025.
Repair and maintenance costs related to PP&E, which do not significantly increase the useful life of an existing asset or do not significantly alter, modify, or change the capabilities or production capacity of an existing asset, are expensed as incurred.
Interest is capitalized for capital projects requiring a construction period.
PP&E and other long-lived assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable. UNIFI periodically evaluates the reasonableness of the useful lives of these assets. Long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale within one year are classified as held for sale and are reported at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Depreciation ceases for all assets classified as held for sale. Long-lived assets to be disposed of other than by sale are classified as held for use until they are disposed of and these assets, along with assets subject to abandonment, are reported at the lower of their carrying amount or estimated fair value.
Intangible Assets
Finite-lived intangible assets, such as customer lists, non-compete agreements, and trademarks are amortized over their estimated useful lives. UNIFI periodically evaluates the reasonableness of the useful lives of these assets. Once these assets are fully amortized, they are removed from the accounts. These assets (asset groups) are reviewed for impairment or obsolescence whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If impaired, intangible assets are written down to fair value based on discounted cash flows or other valuation techniques. UNIFI hasno intangible assets with indefinite lives.
Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates
UNIFI evaluates its investments in unconsolidated affiliates for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.
Fair Value Measurements
The accounting guidance for fair value measurements and disclosures establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants in the principal market, or, if none exists, the most advantageous market, for the specific asset or liability at the measurement date (the exit price). Fair value is based on assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. UNIFI uses the following to measure fair value for its assets and liabilities.
Level 1 – Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either indirectly or directly.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs reflecting management’s own assumptions about the inputs used in pricing the asset or liability.
The classification of assets and liabilities within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. There were no transfers into or out of the levels of the fair value hierarchy for any years presented.
UNIFI believes that there have been no significant changes to its credit risk profile or the interest rates available to UNIFI for debt issuances with similar terms and average maturities, and UNIFI estimates that the fair values of its debt obligations approximate the carrying amounts using Level 2 inputs. Other financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable, and accrued expenses. The financial statement carrying amounts of these items approximate the fair values due to their short-term nature.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded to recognize the expected future tax benefits or costs of events that have been, or will be, reported in different tax years for financial statement purposes than for tax purposes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which these items are expected to reverse. UNIFI reviews deferred tax assets to determine if it is more-likely-than-not they will be realized. If UNIFI determines it is not more-likely-than-not that a deferred tax asset will be realized, it records a valuation allowance to reverse the previously recognized benefit. Provision is made for taxes on undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries and related companies to the extent that such earnings are not deemed to be permanently invested.
UNIFI recognizes tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions if it believes it is more-likely-than-not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. UNIFI accrues for other tax contingencies when it is probable that a liability to a taxing authority has been incurred and the amount of the contingency can be reasonably estimated. Penalties and interest related to income tax expense, if incurred, are included in provision for income taxes.
Stock-Based Compensation
Compensation expense for stock awards is based on the grant date fair value and expensed over the applicable vesting period. UNIFI has a policy of issuing new shares to satisfy award exercises and conversions. For awards with a service condition and a graded vesting schedule, UNIFI has elected an accounting policy of recognizing compensation cost on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for each separate vesting portion of the award as if the award was, in-substance, multiple awards.
Foreign Currency Translation
Assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries whose functional currency is other than the U.S. Dollar (“USD”) are translated at exchange rates existing at the respective balance sheet dates. Translation gains and losses are not included in determining net (loss) income but are presented in a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. UNIFI translates the results of its foreign operations at the average exchange rates during the respective periods. Transaction gains and losses are included within other operating (income) expense, net.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized when performance obligations under the terms of a contract with a customer are satisfied, which primarily occurs at a point in time, upon either shipment or delivery to the customer. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration UNIFI expects to receive in exchange for completing its performance obligations (i.e., transferring goods or providing services), which includes estimates for variable consideration. Variable consideration includes volume-based incentives and product claims, which are offered within certain contracts between UNIFI and its customers and is not material. Sales taxes and value-added taxes assessed by governmental entities are excluded from the measurement of consideration expected to be received. Shipping and handling costs incurred after a customer has taken control of our goods are treated as a fulfillment cost and are not considered a separate performance obligation.
Cost of Sales
The major components of cost of sales are: (i) materials and supplies, (ii) labor and fringe benefits, (iii) utility and overhead costs associated with manufactured products, (iv) shipping, handling and warehousing costs, (v) depreciation expense, and (vi) all other costs related to production or service activities.
Shipping, Handling, and Warehousing Costs
Shipping, handling, and warehousing costs include costs to store goods prior to shipment, prepare goods for shipment, and physically move goods to customers.
Research and Development Costs
Research and development costs include employee costs, production costs related to customer samples, operating supplies, consulting fees, and other miscellaneous costs. The cost of research and development is charged to cost of sales as incurred. Research and development costs were as follows:
| Fiscal 2026 | Fiscal 2025 | Fiscal 2024 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Research and development costs | $7,707 | $8,750 | $9,599 |
Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses
The major components of SG&A expenses are: (i) costs of UNIFI’s sales organization, marketing and advertising efforts, and external commissions; (ii) costs of maintaining UNIFI’s general and administrative support functions including executive management, information technology, human resources, legal, and finance; (iii) amortization of intangible assets; and (iv) all other costs required to be classified as SG&A expenses.
Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and included in SG&A expenses. UNIFI’s advertising costs include spending for items such as consumer marketing and branding initiatives, promotional items, trade shows, sponsorships, and other programs. Advertising costs were as follows:
| Fiscal 2026 | Fiscal 2025 | Fiscal 2024 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Advertising costs | $2,331 | $2,783 | $3,091 |
Self-Insurance
UNIFI self-insures certain risks such as employee healthcare claims and maintains stop-loss coverage. Reserves for incurred but not reported healthcare claims are estimated using historical data, the timeliness of claims processing, medical trends, inflation, and any changes, if applicable, in the nature or type of the plan.
Contingencies
At any point in time, UNIFI may be a party to various pending legal proceedings, claims, or environmental actions. Accruals for estimated losses are recorded at the time information becomes available indicating that losses are probable and estimable. Any amounts accrued are not discounted. Legal costs such as outside counsel fees and expenses are charged to expense as incurred.
- Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Issued and Pending Adoption
In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. ASU No. 2024-03 does not change or remove existing expense disclosure requirement but requires disaggregated disclosures about certain expense categories and captions, including but not limited to, purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization, and selling expenses. This ASU will become effective for UNIFI's fiscal 2028 and in the first quarter of fiscal 2029 for interim reporting, with retrospective application permitted. UNIFI is currently evaluating the impact on the Company's disclosures on its consolidated financial statements.
There have been no other newly issued accounting pronouncements that are expected to have a significant impact on UNIFI’s consolidated financial statements.
Recently Adopted
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. UNIFI adopted the ASU this fiscal year and the adoption did not have a material impact to UNIFI's consolidated financial statements.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. ASU No. 2023-07 expands annual and interim disclosure requirements for reportable segments, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. UNIFI adopted the ASU this fiscal year and the adoption did not have a material impact to UNIFI's consolidated financial statements.
- Leases
UNIFI has adopted the following post-implementation practical expedients related to its accounting for leases:
short-term lease accounting policy election allowing lessees to not recognize right-of-use assets and liabilities for leases with a term of 12 months or less and to recognize lease payments on a straight-line basis over the lease term and variable payments in the period the obligation is incurred; and
the option not to separate lease and non-lease components for the transportation equipment asset class.
UNIFI leases sales and administrative office space, warehousing and distribution centers, manufacturing space, transportation equipment, manufacturing equipment, and other information technology and office equipment from third parties. The lease terms range from 1 to 15 years with various options for renewal. There are no residual value guarantees, restrictions, covenants, or sub-leases related to these leases. Variable lease payments are determined as the amounts included in the lease payment that are based on the change in index or usage. Disclosures related to the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases are included below.
The following table sets forth the balance sheet location and values of the Company’s lease assets and lease liabilities:
| Classification | Balance Sheet Location | June 28, 2026 | June 29, 2025 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lease Assets | |||
| Operating lease assets | Operating lease assets | $6,532 | $7,879 |

The following table sets forth the components of UNIFI’s total lease cost for fiscal 2026 and 2025:
| Lease Cost | Fiscal 2026 | Fiscal 2025 |
|---|---|---|
| Operating lease cost | $2,324 | $2,730 |
| Variable lease cost | 609 | 643 |
| Finance lease cost: | ||
| Amortization of lease assets | 2,323 | 1,785 |
| Interest on lease liabilities | 459 | 418 |
| Short-term lease cost | 476 | 1,397 |
| Total lease cost | $6,191 | $6,973 |
The following table presents supplemental information related to leases:
| Other Information | Fiscal 2026 | Fiscal 2025 |
|---|---|---|
| Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities: | ||
| Operating cash flows used by operating leases | $2,324 | $2,730 |
| Financing cash flows used by finance leases | $3,311 | $3,093 |

| Leased assets obtained in exchange for new operating lease liabilities | $977 | $2,365 |
| Leased assets obtained in exchange for new finance lease liabilities | $4,117 | $1,716 |
UNIFI calculates its operating lease liabilities and finance lease liabilities based upon UNIFI’s incremental borrowing rate (the “IBR”). When determining the IBR, we consider our centralized treasury function and our current credit profile. UNIFI makes adjustments to this rate for securitization, the length of the lease term (tenure), and leases denominated in foreign currencies. Generally, the IBR for each jurisdiction approximates the specific risk-free rate for the respective jurisdiction incremented for UNIFI’s corporate credit risk and adjusted for tenure.
The following table sets forth UNIFI's weighted average remaining lease term in years and discount rate percentage used in the calculation of its outstanding lease liabilities:
| Weighted Average Remaining Lease Term and Discount Rate | June 28, 2026 | June 29, 2025 |
|---|---|---|
| Weighted average remaining lease term (years): | ||
| Operating leases | 4.1 | 4.5 |
| Finance leases | 3.8 | 3.3 |
| Weighted average discount rate (percentage): | ||
| Operating leases | 5.6% | 5.1% |
| Finance leases | 4.8% | 5.2% |

| Net sales | $531,303 | $571,344 | $582,209 |
Third-Party Manufacturer Revenue
Third-party manufacturer revenue is primarily generated through sales to direct customers. Such sales represent satisfaction of UNIFI’s performance obligations required by the associated revenue contracts. Each of UNIFI’s reportable segments derives revenue from sales to third-party manufacturers.
Service Revenue
Service revenue is primarily generated, as services are rendered, through fulfillment of toll manufacturing of textile products or transportation services governed by written agreements. Such toll manufacturing and transportation services represent satisfaction of UNIFI’s performance obligations required by the associated revenue contracts.
REPREVE Fiber
REPREVE Fiber represents our collection of fiber products on our recycled platform, with or without added technologies.
Variable Consideration
For all variable consideration, where appropriate, UNIFI estimates the amount using the expected value method, which takes into consideration historical experience, current contractual requirements, specific known market events, and forecasted customer buying and payment patterns. Overall, these reserves reflect UNIFI’s best estimates of the amount of consideration to which the customer is entitled based on the terms of the contracts. Variable consideration was immaterial to UNIFI’s financial statements for all years presented.
Product Claims
UNIFI generally offers customers claims support or remuneration for defective products. UNIFI estimates the amount of its product sales that may be claimed as defective by its customers and records this estimate as a reduction of revenue in the period the related product revenue is recognized.
- Receivables, Net
Receivables, net consists of the following:
| June 28, 2026 | June 29, 2025 | |
|---|---|---|

| Net customer receivables | 75,299 | 73,231 |
| Banker's acceptance notes | 810 | 1,334 |
| Other receivables | 557 | 818 |
| Total receivables, net | $76,666 | $75,383 |
Banker’s acceptance notes (“BANs”), denominated in the Chinese Renminbi, relate to the settlement of certain customer receivables generated from trade activity in the Asia Segment. The BANs are redeemable upon maturity from the drawing financial institutions, or earlier at a discount.
The changes in UNIFI’s allowance for uncollectible accounts and reserves for quality claims were as follows:
| Allowance forUncollectibleAccounts | Reserves for Quality Claims | |
|---|---|---|
| Balance at July 2, 2023 | $(1,362) | $(682) |

| Translation activity | (62) | (1) |
| Deductions | 814 | 1,354 |
| Balance at June 28, 2026 | $(1,543) | $(716) |
Amounts credited (charged) to costs and expenses for the allowance for uncollectible accounts are reflected in the benefit for bad debts and deductions represent amounts written off which were deemed to not be collectible, net of any recoveries. Amounts charged to costs and expenses for the reserves for quality claims are primarily reflected as a reduction of net sales and deductions represent adjustments to either increase or decrease claims based on negotiated amounts or actual versus estimated claim differences.

Grantor Trust
During fiscal 2022, UNIFI established a grantor (or “rabbi”) trust to facilitate the payment of obligations under the Unifi, Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan (the “DCP”), which was also established in fiscal 2022. In addition to providing certain key employees with the ability to defer earned cash incentive compensation into the DCP, participants can generally choose the form and timing of deferred amounts. The DCP assumed the participants, obligations, and major terms of the Unifi, Inc. Supplemental Key Employee Retirement Plan (together with amendments, the “SERP”), an unfunded plan established in 2006 for purposes of generating supplemental retirement income for key employees of UNIFI. The amounts credited to participant accounts are reflected in SG&A expenses. The assets of the trust are subject to the claims of UNIFI’s creditors in the event of insolvency. Investments held for the DCP consist of mutual funds and are recorded based on market values. A change in the value of the trust assets would substantially be offset by a change in the liability to the participants, resulting in an immaterial net impact to the consolidated financial statements.
The fair value of the investment assets held by the trust were approxim ately $2,830 and $2,310 as of June 28, 2026 and June 29, 2025, respectively, and are classified as trading securities within Other non-current assets. Trading gains and losses associated with these investments are recorded to Other operating expense (income), net. The associated DCP liability is recorded within Other current liabilities and Other long-term liabilities based on expected payment timing, and any increase or decrease in the liability is reflected as compensation in SG&A expenses. During fiscal 2026, 2025, and 2024, we recorded gains on investments held by the trust of $397, $219, and $308, respectively.
Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates
U.N.F. Industries, Ltd.
In September 2000, UNIFI and Nilit Ltd. ("Nilit") formed a 50/50 joint venture, U.N.F. Industries Ltd. (“UNF”), for the purpose of operating nylon extrusion assets to manufacture nylon POY. Raw material and production services for UNF were provided by Nilit under separate supply and services agreements. UNF’s fiscal year end was December 31 and it was a registered Israeli private company located in Migdal Ha-Emek, Israel.
In December 2023, UNIFI dissolved its interest in UNF under an agreement whereby UNIFI agreed to pay the former joint venture partner $2,750 and recorded it as an associated contract termination cost within Restructuring costs on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. UNIFI made a payment to the former joint venture partner of $1,200 in the second quarter of fiscal 2024 and the remaining $1,550 was paid in the third quarter of fiscal 2024. Accordingly, the balance sheet information presented below as of June 28, 2026 and June 29, 2025 does not include any amounts related to UNF.
UNF America, LLC
In October 2009, UNIFI and Nilit America Inc. (“Nilit America”) formed a 50/50 joint venture, UNF America LLC (“UNFA”), for the purpose of operating a nylon extrusion facility which manufactures nylon POY. Raw material and production services for UNFA are provided by Nilit America under separate supply and services agreements. UNFA’s fiscal year end is December 31 and it is a limited liability company located in Ridgeway, Virginia. UNFA is treated as a partnership for its income tax reporting.
In conjunction with the formation of UNFA, UNIFI entered into a supply agreement with UNF and UNFA (collectively, “UNFs”) whereby UNIFI agreed to purchase all of its first quality nylon POY requirements for texturing (subject to certain exceptions) from either UNF or UNFA. The agreement has no stated minimum purchase quantities, and pricing is negotiated every six months based on market rates. As of June 28, 2026, UNIFI’s open purchase orders related to this supply agreement, all with UNFA, were $1,964.
UNIFI’s raw material purchases under this supply agreement consist of the following:
| Fiscal 2026 | Fiscal 2025 | Fiscal 2024 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| UNFA | $15,672 | $14,974 | $13,477 |
As of June 28, 2026 and June 29, 2025, UNIFI had accounts payable due to UNFA of $2,010 and $1,368, respectively.
UNIFI has determined that UNF was, and UNFA is, a variable interest entity and has also determined that UNIFI has been the primary beneficiary of these entities, based on the terms of the supply agreement. As a result, these entities should be consolidated with UNIFI’s financial results. As (i) UNIFI purchases substantially all of the output and all intercompany sales would be eliminated in consolidation, (ii) the entity balance sheets constitute 5% or less of UNIFI’s current assets and total assets, and (iii) such balances are not expected to comprise a larger portion in the future, UNIFI has not included the accounts of UNF and UNFA in its consolidated financial statements and instead is accounting for these entities as equity investments. As of June 28, 2026 and June 29, 2025, UNIFI’s investment in UNFAwas $925 and $1,151, respectively. The financial results of UNF and UNFA are included in UNIFI’s consolidated financial statements with a one-month lag, using the equity method of accounting and with intercompany profits eliminated in accordance with UNIFI’s accounting policy. Other than the supply agreement discussed above, UNIFI does not provide any other commitments or guarantees related to UNFA.

Recovery of Taxes
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. In fiscal 2025, Brazil's expected recovery of income taxes was reclassified from Other non-current assets to income taxes receivable due to the expectation of realizing the tax benefit within 12 months. Brazil received a cash refund of $2,339 in fiscal 2025 related to this receivable and expects to realize approximately half of the remaining income tax recovery through cash refunds and the other half through credits offsetting future federal tax liabilities in Brazil.
Deposits on Contracts for Machinery
In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, UNIFI terminated a contract related to future purchases of texturing machineryin exchange for the forfeiture of $1,448 in deposits which is included in Restructuring costs within the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

2022 ABL Facility and Amendments
On October 28, 2022, Unifi, Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “2022 Credit Agreement”) with a syndicate of lenders. The 2022 Credit Agreement provides for a $230,000 senior secured credit facility (the “2022 ABL Facility”), including a $115,000 revolving credit facility (the "2022 ABL Revolver") and a term loan (the "2022 ABL Term Loan") that can be reset up to a maximum amount of $115,000, once per fiscal year, if certain conditions are met. The 2022 ABL Facility has a maturity date of October 28, 2027. The 2022 ABL Term Loan requires quarterly principal payments of $2,300 that began on February 1, 2023. Borrowings under the 2022 ABL Facility bear interest at the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus 0.10% plus an applicable margin of 2.0%, or the Base Rate (as defined in the 2022 Credit Agreement) plus an applicable margin of 1.0%, with interest paid most commonly on a monthly basis.
On September 5, 2024, UNIFI, Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a First Amendment to the 2022 Credit Agreement (the “First Amendment”) with a syndicate of lenders. The First Amendment primarily (i) permits the sale of a Company-owned real estate asset (consisting of an industrial warehouse building and land acreage) located in Yadkinville, North Carolina with application of the net proceeds to reduce the outstanding ABL Revolver balance, in lieu of the prescribed mandatory prepayment to the ABL Term Loan; (ii) reduces the Maximum Revolver Amount from $115,000 to $80,000; (iii) modifies the definition of the Trigger Level as of any date of determination to the greater of (a) $16,500 and (b)10% of the sum of (i) the Maximum Revolver Amount plus (ii) the outstanding principal amount of the ABL Term Loan on such date of determination; (iv) increases the range of the Applicable Margin on (a) SOFR-based loans to a new range of 1.50% to 2.00% and (b) Base Rate-based loans to a new range of 0.50% to 1.00%, with such new ranges of Applicable Margin rates becoming immediately effective and continuing until the Company achieves a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of 1.05 to 1.00 or better; (v) for a Term Loan Reset, establishes an additional requirement to obtain lender approval; and (vi) modifies certain terms and conditions of the 2022 Credit Agreement including, but not limited to, Swing Loans, Letter of Credit sublimits, and costs related to normal course collateral valuations for the ABL Facility.
On April 10, 2025, UNIFI entered into a Second Amendment to the 2022 Credit Agreement (the “Second Amendment”). The Second Amendment primarily (i) permits the Company to enter into the purchase agreement related to, and consummate the sale of, the Madison, North Carolina property, (ii) permits the Company to allocate a portion of the net proceeds from the sale to repay outstanding revolving loans under the 2022 Credit Agreement, after the application of the greater of $25,000 or 50% of such net proceeds toward outstanding term loans, and (iii) requires the consent of all lenders, rather than the Required Lenders (as defined in the 2022 Credit Agreement), in order to reset the maximum amount of the term loans available under the 2022 Credit Agreement.
The 2022 ABL Facility is secured by a first-priority perfected security interest in substantially all owned property and assets (together with all proceeds and products) of Unifi, Inc., Unifi Manufacturing, Inc., and a certain subsidiary guarantor (collectively, the “Loan Parties”). It is also secured by a first-priority security interest in all (or 65% in the case of UNIFI’s first-tier controlled foreign subsidiary, as required by the lenders) of the stock of (or other ownership interests in) each of the Loan Parties (other than Unifi, Inc.) and certain subsidiaries of the Loan Parties, together with all proceeds and products thereof.
If excess availability under the 2022 ABL Revolver falls below the Trigger Level (as defined in the 2022 Credit Agreement), a financial covenant requiring the Loan Parties to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio on a quarterly basis of at least 1.05 to 1.00 becomes effective. The Trigger Level as of June 28, 2026 was $16,500. Inaddition, the 2022 ABL Facility contains restrictions on particular payments and investments, including certain restrictions on the payment of dividends and share repurchases. Subject to specific provisions, the 2022 ABL Term Loan may be prepaid at par, in whole or in part, at any time before the maturity date, at UNIFI’s discretion.
The applicable margin is based on (i) the excess availability under the 2022 ABL Revolver and (ii) the consolidated leverage ratio, calculated as of the end of each fiscal quarter. UNIFI’s ability to borrow under the 2022 ABL Revolver is limited to a borrowing base equal to specified percentages of eligible accounts receivable and inventories and is subject to certain conditions and limitations. There is also a monthly unused line fee under the 2022 ABL Revolver of 0.25%.
2024 Facility
On October 25, 2024, UNIFI entered into a new credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association for a $25,000 revolving credit facility (the "2024 Facility"). The maturity date of the 2024 Facility is the earlier of (i)October 28, 2027 and (ii) the termination or refinancing of the 2022 Credit Agreement. The 2024 Facility is deemed unsecured financing for UNIFI, but is collateralized by certain assets pledged by related party Kenneth G. Langone, one of the members of UNIFI's Board of Directors. Borrowings under the 2024 Facility bear interest at a rate of SOFR plus 0.90%. The 2024 Facility contains no additional financial covenants beyond those already in effect for the 2022 Credit Agreement and is subject to a monthly unused line fee of 0.25% on available borrowing capacity. UNIFI borrowed $22,000 against the 2024 Facility during the third fiscal quarter and used the proceeds to reduce the outstanding ABL Revolver balance. There was no impact to debt principal from these transactions.
Finance Lease Obligations
During fiscal 2026, UNIFI entered into finance lease obligations totaling $4,117 for transportation equipment. The maturity dates of these obligations range from October 2030 to October 2032 with interest rates ranging from 4.2% to 4.5%.
During fiscal 2025, UNIFI entered into finance lease obligations totaling $1,716 for transportation equipment. The maturity dates of these obligations range from March 2028 to August 2032 with interest rates ranging from 4.2% to 5.4%.

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation H.R. 1, formerly known as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (“GILTI”) provisions included in H.R. 1 require that certain income earned by foreign subsidiaries must be currently included in the gross income of the U.S. shareholder. UNIFI has elected to recognize GILTI as a current-period expense. Under this policy, UNIFI has not provided deferred taxes related to temporary differences that, upon their reversal, will affect the amount of income subject to GILTI in the period.
On July 4, 2025, the U.S. government enacted The One Big Beautiful Bill Act of 2025 (“Act”), making significant changes to the U.S. corporate income tax system including, among other provisions, the immediate expensing of research and development expenditures, and 100 percent bonus depreciation on qualified property. The impacts of the Act are reflected in our results for the fiscal year ended June 28, 2026, and there was no material impact to our income tax expense. As of the fiscal year ended June 28, 2026, certain provisions of the Act have impacted the expected timing of deferred tax asset utilization, and the distribution of valuation allowance balances on those assets.
Utilization of Net Operating Loss Carryforwards
Domestic deferred tax expense includes the utilization of federal net operating loss (“NOL”) carryfor wards of $0, $0, and $0 for fiscal 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively. Foreign deferred tax expense includes the utilization of NOL carryforwards of $636, $941, and $896 for fiscal 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively.

Deferred Income Taxes – Valuation Allowance
In assessing its ability to realize deferred tax assets, UNIFI considers whether it is more-likely-than-not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. UNIFI considers the scheduled reversal of taxable temporary differences, taxable income in carryback years, cumulative losses in recent years, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Since UNIFI operates in multiple jurisdictions, the assessment is made on a jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction basis, taking into account the effects of local tax law. Based on consideration of these items, management believes that UNIFI will be able to utilize a portion of foreign tax credits claimed by one of its non-U.S. subsidiaries in the foreseeable future, and has released $174 of the valuation allowance previously applied to this deferred tax asset. Management has also determined that there is not enough positive evidence to support the realization of its deferred income tax asset balances of its U.S. consolidated group and certain foreign subsidiaries, and that a full valuation allowance against these deferred tax assets is warranted as of June 28, 2026.
Components of UNIFI’s deferred tax valuation allowance are as follows:
| Fiscal 2026 | Fiscal 2025 | Fiscal 2024 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Capital loss carryforwards | $(50) | $(3,628) | $(16,442) |
| NOL carryforwards and reversing temporary differences | (46,905) | (36,049) | (27,231) |
| Disallowed interest deduction carryforwards | (558) | (3,838) | (1,860) |
| Tax credits | (12,286) | (10,549) | (9,717) |
| Other deferred tax assets | (565) | (1,144) | — |
| Total deferred tax valuation allowance | $(60,364) | $(55,208) | $(55,250) |
During fiscal 2026, UNIFI’s valuation allowance increased by $5,156. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in the valuation allowance on federal NOL and R&D credit carryforwards. This increase was partially offset by decreases in the valuation allowances for i) capital loss carryforwards that expired during the year, and ii) disallowed interest carryforwards.
During fiscal 2025, UNIFI’s valuation allowance decreased by $42. The decrease was primarily driven by a decrease in the valuation allowance on capital loss carryforwards that were utilized or expired, which was partially offset by an increase in the valuation allowance on federal NOL and disallowed interest carryforwards.
During fiscal 2024, UNIFI’s valuation allowance increased by $11,340. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in the valuation allowance on federal and state NOL carryforwards, partially offset by a decrease in the valuation allowance following the conclusion of the IRS audit.
Unrecognized Tax Benefits
A reconciliation of beginning and ending gross amounts of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:
| Fiscal 2026 | Fiscal 2025 | Fiscal 2024 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Balance at beginning of year | $3,748 | $3,230 | $4,353 |
| Gross increases related to tax positions in prior periods | 736 | 266 | 1,145 |
| Gross decreases related to tax positions in prior periods | (195) | (2) | (1,015) |
| Gross increases related to current period tax positions | 382 | 300 | 300 |
| Gross decreases related to settlements with tax authorities | — | — | (1,553) |
| Gross decreases related to lapse of applicable statute of limitations | (1) | (46) | — |
| Balance at end of year | $4,670 | $3,748 | $3,230 |
Unreco gnized tax benefits would generate a favorable impact of $1,996 on UNIFI’s effective tax rate if recognized. UNIFI does not expect material changes in uncertain tax positions within the next 12 months. Expense (benefit) for interest and penalties recognized by UNIFI within the provision for income taxes was $136, $120, and $(657) for fiscal 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively. UNIFI had $558, $422, and$302 accrued for interest and/or penalties related to uncertain tax positions as of June 28, 2026, June 29, 2025, and June 30, 2024, respectively.
Expiration of NOL Carryforwards and Tax Credit Carryforwards
As of June 28, 2026, UNIFI had U.S. federal capital loss carryforwards of $50, U.S. federal NOL carryforwards of $29,216, U.S. state NOL carryforwards of $4,844, and foreign NOL carryforwards of $4,133. The state NOL carryforwards begin expiring in varying amounts in fiscal 2028. As of June 28, 2026, UNIFI had the following carryforward attributes held outside of the U.S. consolidated tax filing group: U.S. federal NOL carryforwards of $553 and U.S. state NOL carryforwards of $573. The NOL carryforwards held outside of the U.S. consolidated tax filing group begin expiring in fiscal 2028. As of June 28, 2026, UNIFI had U.S. federal foreign tax credit carryforwards of $226 and foreign tax credit carryforwards in foreign jurisdictions of $2,254. The U.S. federal foreign tax credit carryforwards begin expiring in varying amounts in fiscal 2028. As of June 28, 2026, UNIFI had U.S. federal and state research and other business tax credit carryforwards of $10,456, with state tax credits beginning to expire in fiscal 2027 and federal tax credits beginning to expire in fiscal 2039. As of June 28, 2026, UNIFI had U.S. federal disallowed interest deduction carryforwards of $7,243.
Tax Years Subject to Examination
Unifi, Inc. and its domestic subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return, as well as income tax returns in multiple state and foreign jurisdictions. The tax years subject to examination vary by jurisdiction. UNIFI regularly assesses the outcomes of both completed and ongoing examinations to ensure that UNIFI’s provision for income taxes is sufficient.
In fiscal 2024, the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) concluded the audit of UNIFI's domestic operations for fiscal 2014 through 2019 with a refund of $1,275, which has been received along with $457 of interest on the overpayments. No penalty or interest was assessed by the IRS. Following the conclusion of the IRS audit, UNIFI recorded a tax benefit of $(103) for audit related adjustments to its tax balances and reserves for uncertain tax positions, and a benefit of $853 from related penalties and interest, that have been effectively settled.
The IRS generally has three years after an original return is filed to assess income taxes. Fiscal years 2023 through 2025 are subject to examination. Certain carryforward tax attributes generated in years prior remain subject to examination and could change in subsequent tax years.
UNIFI is also subject to examination by various state and international tax authorities. The tax years subject to examination vary by jurisdiction. The statute of limitations for material foreign jurisdictions is five years, therefore tax years 2021 through 2025 are open for examination. Statues related to material US state jurisdictions are open from filing dates of state tax returns ended on June 30,2022. The IRS audit settlement opened the statute of limitations of certain US state jurisdictions for tax years adjusted by the IRS of fiscal 2014 through 2019. Additionally, certain carryforward tax attributes generated in years prior remain subject to examination and could change in subsequent tax years.
Indefinite Reinvestment Assertion
UNIFI considers $44,110 of its unremitted foreign earnings to be permanently reinvested to fund working capital requirements and operations abroad, and has therefore not recognized a deferred tax liability for the estimated future taxes that would be incurred upon repatriation. If these earnings were distributed in the form of dividends or otherwise, or if the shares of the relevant foreign subsidiaries were sold or otherwise transferred, UNIFI could be subject to additional tax liabilities of approximately $13,728.
- Shareholders’ Equity
On October 31, 2018, the Board approved a share repurchase program (the “2018 SRP”) under which UNIFI is authorized to acquire up to $50,000 of its common stock. Under the 2018 SRP, purchases may be made from time to time in the open market at prevailing market prices or through private transactions or block trades. The timing and amount of repurchases will depend on market conditions, share price, applicable legal requirements, and other factors. The share repurchase authorization is discretionary and has no expiration date. Repurchases, if any, are expected to be financed through cash generated from operations and borrowings, and are subject to applicable limitations and restrictions as set forth in the 2022 ABL Facility. UNIFI may discontinue repurchases at any time that management determines additional purchases are not beneficial or advisable.
The following table summarizes UNIFI’s repurchases and retirements of its common stock under the 2018 SRP for the fiscal periods noted:
| Total Numberof SharesRepurchasedas Part of PubliclyAnnounced Plansor Programs | Average PricePaid per Share | ApproximateDollar Value thatMay Yet BeRepurchasedUnder Publicly Announced Plans or Programs | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fiscal 2019 | — | $— | $50,000 |
| Fiscal 2020 | 84 | $23.72 | $48,008 |
| Fiscal 2021 | — | $— | $48,008 |
| Fiscal 2022 | 617 | $14.84 | $38,859 |
| Fiscal 2023 | — | $— | $38,859 |

| Fiscal 2026 | — | $— | $38,859 |
| Total | 701 | $15.90 | $38,859 |
Repurchased shares are retired and have the status of authorized and unissued shares. The cost of the repurchased shares is recorded as a reduction to common stock to the extent of the par value of the shares acquired and the remainder is allocated between capital in excess of par value and retained earnings, on a pro rata basis.
No dividends were paid in the three most recent fiscal years.
- Stock-Based Compensation
On October 23, 2013, UNIFI’s shareholders approved the Unifi, Inc. 2013 Incentive Compensation Plan (the “2013 Plan”). The 2013 Plan replaced the 2008 Unifi, Inc. Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2008 LTIP”). No additional awards can be granted under the 2008 LTIP; however, prior awards outstanding under the 2008 LTIP remain subject to that plan’s provisions. The 2013 Plan authorized the issuance of 1,000 shares of common stock, subject to certain increases in the event outstanding awards under the 2008 LTIP expired, were forfeited, or otherwise terminated unexercised.
The 2013 Plan expired in accordance with its terms on October 24, 2018, and the Unifi, Inc. Amended and Restated 2013 Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Amended 2013 Plan”) became effective on that same day, upon approval by shareholders at UNIFI’s annual meeting of shareholders held on October 31, 2018. The Amended 2013 Plan set the number of shares available for future issuance pursuant to awards granted under the Amended 2013 Plan to 1,250 and removed provisions no longer applicable due to the recent changes to Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The material terms and provisions of the Amended 2013 Plan are otherwise similar to those of the 2013 Plan.
On October 29, 2020, UNIFI’s shareholders approved the Unifi, Inc. Second Amended and Restated 2013 Incentive Compensation Plan (the “2020 Plan”). The 2020 Plan set the number of shares available for future issuance pursuant to awards granted under the 2020 Plan to 850. On October 31, 2023, UNIFI’s shareholders approved the First Amendment to the 2020 Plan (the "First Amendment"), which increased the remaining share reserve by 1,100. On October 28, 2025, UNIFI’s shareholders approved the Second Amendment to the 2020 Plan (the "Second Amendment"), which increased the remaining share reserve by 1,240. No additional awards can be granted under prior plans; however, awards outstanding under a respective prior plan remain subject to that plan’s provisions.
The following table provides information as of June 28, 2026 with respect to the number of securities remaining available for future issuance under the 2020 Plan, as amended:
| Authorized under the 2020 Plan | 850 |
|---|---|
| Plus: Share reserve increase from the First Amendment | 1,100 |
| Plus: Share reserve increase from the Second Amendment | 1,240 |
| Plus: Awards expired, forfeited or otherwise terminated unexercised | 579 |
| Less: Awards granted to employees | (2,390) |
| Less: Awards granted to non-employee directors | (384) |
| Available for issuance under the 2020 Plan | 995 |
Stock Options
No stock options, other than those issued under the existing employee stock purchase plan described below, were issued in fiscal 2026, 2025, and 2024. A summary of stock option activity for fiscal 2026 is as follows:
| Stock Options | WeightedAverageExercise Price | WeightedAverageRemainingContractual Life(Years) | AggregateIntrinsicValue | |

| Exercisable at June 28, 2026 | 453 | $15.59 | 3.6 | $— |
There was no unrecognized compensation cost at June 28, 2026, and stock option activity for fiscal 2026, 2025, and 2024 was insignificant.
Stock Units and Share Units
UNIFI grants stock unit awards to certain key employees and non-employee directors. Stock unit awards may be subject to service- and/or performance-based vesting conditions, and may be settled in cash (“cash units”) or Common Stock (“equity units”) depending on the terms of the grant. Equity units convey no rights of ownership until they have vested and been distributed to the grantee in the form of Common Stock. Cash units are settled in cash based on the fair value of Common Stock on the vesting date.
Vested share units (“VSUs”), which become fully vested on the grant date, and director restricted stock units (“DRSUs”), which vest quarterly over aone-year service period, are granted to non-employee directors. VSUs and DRSUs are converted into an equivalent number of shares of Company Common Stock and distributed to the grantee following their termination of service as a member of the Board.
Restricted stock units (“RSUs”) granted to employees are subject to a service vesting condition, and vest over athree-year period, as long as employment continues through the respective vesting date. Performance share units (“PSUs”) granted to employees are subject to service and performance-based vesting conditions. Consistent with the vesting provisions of each grant, between 50% and 300% of the PSUs may become vested, contingent upon achieving the prescribed performance metric(s). RSUs and PSUs may be granted as equity units or cash units.
During fiscal 2026 UNIFI granted 108 DRSUs to UNIFI’s non-employee directors. The weighted average grant-date fair value of DRSUs granted during fiscal 2026 was $4.53 per share.
During fiscal 2025 and 2024, UNIFI granted 71 and 84 VSUs, respectively, to UNIFI’s non-employee directors. The weighted average grant-date fair value of each VSU granted during fiscal 2025 and 2024 was $6.85, and $6.71 per share, respectively.
During fiscal 2026, 2025, and 2024, UNIFI granted 333,508, and 349 RSUs, and 255,189, and 212 PSUs, respectively, as equity units to certain key employees. The weighted average grant-date fair value of RSUs granted during fiscal 2026, 2025, and 2024 was $3.29, $6.85, and $6.43 per share, respectively. The weighted average grant-date fair value of PSUs granted during fiscal 2026, 2025, and 2024 was $3.29, $6.94, and $6.47 per share, respectively.
During fiscal 2026, UNIFI also granted 24 RSUs and 24 PSUs as cash units. Grants of cash units in fiscal 2025 and 2024 are not significant. The weighted average grant date fair value for cash units granted during fiscal 2026 was $3.29.
Equity units are accounted for as equity awards. Equity units are measured based on the fair value of Common Stock on the award’s grant date. A summary of activity of equity units for fiscal 2026 is as follows:
| Non-vested | WeightedAverageGrant DateFair Value | Vested | Total | WeightedAverageGrant DateFair Value | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Outstanding at June 29, 2025 | 1,128 | $6.83 | 403 | 1,531 | $9.10 |
| Granted | 696 | $3.48 | — | 696 | $3.48 |

| Outstanding at June 28, 2026 | 1,251 | $5.04 | 474 | 1,725 | $7.47 |
Cash units are accounted for as liability awards. Cash units are initially measured based on the fair value of Common Stock on the award’s grant date, and then remeasured quarterly until the liability is settled. A summary of activity for non-vested cash units for fiscal 2026 is as follows:
| Non-vested | WeightedAverageFair Value | |
|---|---|---|
| Outstanding at June 29, 2025 | 73 | $5.19 |
| Granted | 49 | $3.29 |
| Vested | (19) | $3.65 |
| Cancelled or forfeited | (16) | $4.75 |
| Outstanding at June 28, 2026 | 87 | $4.75 |
UNIFI reassesses the probability of each potential vesting outcome for all performance units at the end of each reporting period in accordance with ASC 718-20-55-37. In fiscal 2026, management updated its vesting expectation to 200% of target for the first tranche of PSUs granted in November 2025.
At June 28, 2026, the number of equity units vested and expected to vest was 1,810, with an aggregate intrinsic value of $8,597. The number of cash units expected to vest was 94, with an aggregate intrinsic value of $447. There wereno vested performance units at June 28, 2026. The aggregate intrinsic value of the 474 vested RSUs, VSUs and DRSUs at June 28, 2026 was $2,250.
The unrecognized compensation cost related to the unvested equity units at June 28, 2026 was $2,672, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.3 years. The unrecognized compensation cost related to the unvested cash units at June 28, 2026 was $294, which is expected to be recognized over the weighted average period of 1.4 years.
For fiscal 2026, 2025, and 2024, the total intrinsic value of equity units converted was $1,049, $731, and $978, respectively. The tax benefit realized from the conversion of equity units was $200, $171, and $232 for fiscal 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively. For fiscal 2026, total cash payments remitted for vesting and conversion of cash units was 70, and the tax benefit realized was $16. Payments and tax benefits realized for cash units in previous years was not significant.
Employee Stock Purchase Plan
On October 27, 2021, Unifi, Inc.’s shareholders approved the Unifi, Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”), under which an aggregate of 100 shares of Company common stock have been authorized and reserved for issuance pursuant to the ESPP. The ESPP permits employees to purchase common stock through payroll deductions at 85 percent of the fair market value of Company common stock on a quarterly basis. For fiscal 2026, 2025, and 2024,0,12, and 12 shares of common stock were purchased under the ESPP, respectively. As of June 28, 2026,70 shares were available for purchase under the ESPP.
Stock-based compensation expense associated with options granted under the ESPP is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award, which is equal to the purchase discount, and is recognized over the service period (generally the vesting period) on a straight-line basis.
Cost Summary
The total cost related to stock-based compensation for options and equity units was as follows:
| Fiscal 2026 | Fiscal 2025 | Fiscal 2024 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Stock options | $— | $90 | $157 |

| Cash RSUs and Cash PSUs | 139 | — | — |
| ESPP | — | 8 | 11 |
| Total compensation cost | $3,491 | $3,260 | $2,024 |
The total income tax benefit recognized for stock-based compensation was $528, $585, and $366 for fiscal 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively.
Tax benefit recognized in fiscal 2026 was $32. Expense and tax benefit for cash units in prior years was not significant.
In each of fiscal 2026, 2025, and 2024, UNIFI issued 0,0, and 7 shares of common stock for $0, $0, and $50 of expense, respectively, in connection with Board compensation.
- Defined Contribution Plans
401(k) Plan
UNIFI matches employee contributions made to the Unifi, Inc. Retirement Savings Plan (the “401(k) Plan”), a 401(k) defined contribution plan, which covers eligible U.S. salary and hourly employees. Under the terms of the 401(k) Plan, UNIFI matches 100% of the first 3% of eligible employee contributions and 50% of the next 2% of eligible contributions.
The following table presents the employer matching contribution expense related to the 401(k) Plan:
| Fiscal 2026 | Fiscal 2025 | Fiscal 2024 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Matching contribution expense | $2,463 | $2,888 | $2,787 |
Non-qualified Deferred Compensation Plan
The DCP, established in fiscal 2022, is an unfunded non-qualified deferred compensation plan in which certain key employees are eligible to participate. Under the DCP, participants may elect to defer all or a portion of their annual cash incentive compensation to their account. The deferred amounts are paid in accordance with each participant’s elections. In addition to elective deferrals, the DCP assumed the obligations of the SERP, which includes amounts credited to eligible employees’ accounts based on a percentage of their annual base compensation. Amounts due within the next operating cycle are reflected in Other current liabilities and the remaining DCP obligation is reflected in Other long-term liabilities. The total DCP obligation as of June 28, 2026 and June 29, 2025, was $2,984 and $2,432, respectively.
- Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss
The components of and the changes in accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, as applicable, consist of the following:
| Accumulated OtherComprehensiveLoss | |
|---|---|
| Balance at July 2, 2023 | $(53,891) |
| Foreign currency translation loss | (14,898) |
| Balance at June 30, 2024 | $(68,789) |
| Foreign currency translation gain | 3,280 |
| Balance at June 29, 2025 | $(65,509) |
| Foreign currency translation gain | 4,211 |
| Balance at June 28, 2026 | $(61,298) |
- Computation of Earnings Per Share
The computation of basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) is as follows:
| Fiscal 2026 | Fiscal 2025 | Fiscal 2024 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Basic EPS | |||
| Net loss | $(24,562) | $(20,348) | $(47,395) |
| Weighted average common shares outstanding | 18,488 | 18,314 | 18,154 |
| Basic EPS | $(1.33) | $(1.11) | $(2.61) |
| Diluted EPS | |||
| Net loss | $(24,562) | $(20,348) | $(47,395) |
| Weighted average common shares outstanding | 18,488 | 18,314 | 18,154 |
| Net potential common share equivalents | — | — | — |
| Adjusted weighted average common shares outstanding | 18,488 | 18,314 | 18,154 |
| Diluted EPS | $(1.33) | $(1.11) | $(2.61) |
| Excluded from the calculation of common share equivalents: | |||
| Anti-dilutive common share equivalents | 462 | 858 | 491 |
| Excluded from the calculation of diluted shares: | |||
| Unvested stock options that vest upon achievement of certain market conditions | — | — | 333 |
The calculation of earnings per common share is based on the weighted average number of UNIFI’s common shares outstanding for the applicable period. The calculation of diluted earnings per common share presents the effect of all potential dilutive common shares that were outstanding during the respective period, unless the effect of doing so is anti-dilutive.
- Restructuring Costs
On February 3, 2025, UNIFI announced the pending closure of a manufacturing facility in Madison, North Carolina, and a plan to transition the associated manufacturing operations to other production facilities in North and Central America. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, UNIFI sold the Madison, North Carolina facility, as well as certain machinery and equipment located thereon, for a cash purchase price of $45,000 ("Madison Sale"). The net proceeds of the Madison Sale were used to repay a portion of the principal balance of the term loan and revolving credit facility outstanding under the 2022 Credit Agreement.
As part of the Madison Sale, there is an amendment to the purchase agreement for the potential payment of deferred compensation to UNIFI in the amount of (i) $8,000, if certain energy supply conditions are met within two years of closing, (ii) $5,000, if the same conditions are not met within two years of closing but are met within three years of closing, and (iii) up to $5,000, if certain additional energy conditions beyond those referred to in (i) and (ii) are met within four years of closing. No amounts related to the future occurrence of these events have been recorded in the Consolidated Financial Statements as of June 29, 2025.
During fiscal 2025, UNIFI incurred transition costs related to the consolidation of Americas yarn manufacturing operations discussed above for facility closure and equipment relocation costs including asset impairments and disposals, deposits for texturing machinery forfeitures and employee retention or separation costs that were recorded within Restructuring costs in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. UNIFI incurred additional restructuring costs during the first two quarters of fiscal 2026 related to the closure of the Madison, North Carolina facility.
In fiscal 2024, UNIFI initiated the Profitability Improvement Plan intended to lower operating expenses for both production and administrative activities.
The restructuring expenses incurred in all periods primarily impacted the Americas Segment.
A summary of the restructuring activities consists of the following:
| Fiscal 2026 | Fiscal 2025 | Fiscal 2024 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Facility closure and equipment relocation costs | $713 | $5,896 | $— |
| Employee separation or retention costs | 1,140 | 1,580 | 2,351 |

| Restructuring costs, net | 1,853 | 8,924 | 5,101 |
| Cash payments | 1,412 | 5,527 | 4,456 |
| Non-cash charges | 730 | 3,753 | — |
| Ending Liability | — | 289 | 645 |
- Other Operating (Income) Expense, Net

- Commitments and Contingencies
Collective Bargaining Agreements
While employees of UNIFI’s Brazilian operations are unionized, none of the labor force employed by UNIFI’s domestic or other foreign subsidiaries is currently covered by a collective bargaining agreement.
Environmental
On September 30, 2004, Unifi Kinston, LLC (“UK”), a subsidiary of Unifi, Inc., completed its acquisition of polyester filament manufacturing assets located in Kinston, North Carolina (“Kinston”) from Invista S.a.r.l. (“INVISTA”). The land for the Kinston site was leased pursuant to a 99-year ground lease (the “Ground Lease”) with E.I. DuPont de Nemours (“DuPont”). Since 1993, DuPont has been investigating and cleaning up the Kinston site under the supervision of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (the “DEQ”) pursuant to the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act Corrective Action program. The program requires DuPont to identify all potential areas of environmental concern (“AOCs”), assess the extent of containment at the identified AOCs and remediate the AOCs to comply with applicable regulatory standards. Effective March 20, 2008, UK entered into a lease termination agreement associated with conveyance of certain assets at the Kinston site to DuPont. This agreement terminated the Ground Lease and relieved UK of any future responsibility for environmental remediation, other than participation with DuPont, if so called upon, with regard to UK’s period of operation of the Kinston site, which was from 2004 to 2008. At this time, UNIFI has no basis to determine if or when it will have any responsibility or obligation with respect to the AOCs or the extent of any potential liability for the same. UK continues to own property (the “Kentec site”) acquired in the 2004 transaction with INVISTA that has contamination from DuPont’s prior operations and is monitored by DEQ. The Kentec site has been remediated by DuPont, and DuPont has received authority from DEQ to discontinue further remediation, other than natural attenuation. Prior to transfer of responsibility to UK, DuPont and UK had a duty to monitor and report the environmental status of the Kentec site to DEQ. Effective April 10, 2019, UK assumed sole remediator responsibility of the Kentec site pursuant to its contractual obligations with INVISTA and received $180 of net monitoring and reporting costs due from DuPont. In connection with monitoring, UK expects to sample and report to DEQ annually. At this time, UNIFI does not expect any active site remediation will be required but expects that any costs associated with active site remediation, if ever required, would likely be immaterial.
Unconditional Obligations
UNIFI is a party to unconditional obligations for certain utility and other purchase or service commitments. These commitments are non-cancelable, have remaining terms in excess of one year, and qualify as normal purchases.
On a fiscal year basis, the minimum payments expected to be made as part of such commitments are as follows:
| Fiscal 2027 | Fiscal 2028 | Fiscal 2029 | Fiscal 2030 | Fiscal 2031 | Thereafter | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Unconditional purchase obligations | $7,532 | $6,198 | $3,159 | $— | $— | $— |
| Unconditional service obligations | 3,555 | 2,284 | 1,675 | 1,007 | 767 | 767 |
| Total unconditional obligations | $11,087 | $8,482 | $4,834 | $1,007 | $767 | $767 |
For fiscal 2026, 2025, and 2024 total costs incurred under these commitments consist of the following:
| Fiscal 2026 | Fiscal 2025 | Fiscal 2024 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Costs for unconditional purchase obligations | $24,244 | $28,649 | $26,389 |
| Costs for unconditional service obligations | 1,113 | 1,044 | 1,134 |
| Total | $25,357 | $29,693 | $27,523 |

During the six-month period ended June 29, 2025, UNIFI borrowed $22,000 on the 2024 Facility and used the proceeds to reduce the outstanding ABL Revolver balance.
- Business Segment Information
UNIFI defines operating segments as components of the organization for which discrete financial information is available and operating results are evaluated on a regular basis by UNIFI’schief executive officer, who is the chief operating decision maker (the “CODM”), in order to assess performance and allocate resources. Characteristics of UNIFI which were relied upon in making the determination of reportable segments include the nature of the products sold, the internal organizational structure, the trade policies in the geographic regions in which UNIFI operates, and the information that is regularly provided to and reviewed by the CODM for the purpose of assessing performance and allocating resources.
UNIFI'sthree reportable segments are organized as follows:
The operations within the Americas Segment exhibit similar long-term economic characteristics and primarily sell into an economic trading zone covered by the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement and the Dominican Republic-Central America Free Trade Agreement to similar customers utilizing similar methods of distribution. These operations derive revenues primarily from manufacturing recycled and synthetic textile products with sales primarily to yarn manufacturers, knitters, and weavers that produce yarn and/or fabric for the apparel, hosiery, automotive, home furnishings, industrial, medical, and other end-use markets principally in North and Central America. The Americas Segment consists of sales and manufacturing operations in the U.S., El Salvador, and Colombia.
The Brazil Segment primarily manufactures and sells recycled and synthetic textile products to knitters and weavers that produce fabric for the apparel, home furnishings, automotive, industrial, and other end-use markets principally in Brazil. The Brazil Segment includes a manufacturing location and sales offices in Brazil.
The operations within the Asia Segment exhibit similar long-term economic characteristics and sell to similar customers utilizing similar methods of distribution primarily in Asia and Europe. The Asia Segment primarily sources recycled and synthetic textile products from third-party suppliers and sells to yarn manufacturers, knitters, and weavers principally in Asia and Europe that produce fabric for the apparel, automotive, home furnishings, industrial, and other end-use markets. The Asia Segment includes sales offices in China, Turkey, Hong Kong, and India.
UNIFI evaluates the operating performance of its segments based upon Segment Profit, which represents segment gross profit (loss) plus segment depreciation expense. This measurement of segment profit or loss best aligns segment reporting with the current assessments and evaluations performed by, and information provided to, the CODM.
The accounting policies for the segments are consistent with UNIFI’s accounting policies. Intersegment sales are omitted from segment disclosures, as they are (i) insignificant to UNIFI’s segments and eliminated from consolidated reporting and (ii) excluded from segment evaluations performed by the CODM. However, intersegment technologies expense charged from the Americas Segment to the Asia Segment is not eliminated from segment results. The technologies expense (i) reflects the sharing of certain manufacturing know-how, processes, and product technical information and design and (ii) is included in the segment evaluations performed by the CODM.

- Subsequent Event
On August 17, 2026, UNIFI announced that it entered into an agreement for the sale of two non-strategic real estate assets across its operating base in Yadkin County, North Carolina for approximately $60,000 before fees and expenses. The non-strategic real estate assets include approximately 120 acres of land and 500,000 square feet of warehouse space across two separate operating locations in Yadkin County, North Carolina. An earnest money deposit of $2,250 was deposited in escrow pursuant to the terms of the agreement, of which $1,000 may become non-refundable. The transaction is expected to close in UNIFI's second fiscal quarter of fiscal 2027, unless extended by the parties, subject to satisfaction of certain closing conditions as described in the associated Form 8-K filing.
The net proceeds of the transaction will be used to repay a portion of the principal balance of the ABL Term Loan outstanding under UNIFI's 2022 Credit Agreement. The total net book value associated with the property was less than $5,000 as of June 28, 2026.
