Current wording

The following table has been prepared as an aid in understanding the Company’s results of operations on a comparative basis for the three and six months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. The amounts presented are percentages of the Company’s net sales.

Previous wording

Net sales were $110.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared to net sales of $104.0 million in the prior year quarter, an increase of 6.2%. The increase was driven by our sourced soft seating products, partially offset by lower unit volume in our made-to-order soft seating products and homestyles branded ready-to-assemble category.

Current wording

Net sales were $118.2 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2025, compared to net sales of $108.5 million in the prior year quarter, an increase of 9.0%. The increase was driven by higher unit volume of sourced soft seating products and pricing from tariff surcharges, partially offset by lower unit volume in our made-to-order soft seating products and homestyles branded ready-to-assemble products.

Previous wording

Home furnishings backlog was $67 million as of the quarter ended September 30, 2025, an increase of 9.8% compared to $61 million in the prior year quarter.

Current wording

Sales order backlog, inclusive of estimated tariff surcharges, was $82.4 million as of the quarter ended December 31, 2025, an increase of 6.5% compared to $77.3 million in the prior year quarter.

Previous wording

Gross margin as a percent of net sales for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, was 23.5%, compared to 21.5% for the prior year quarter, an increase of 200 basis points (“bps”). The 200-bps increase was primarily driven by sales leverage, and favorable foreign currency translation of our peso denominated assets in Mexico in the current quarter versus unfavorable foreign currency translation in the prior year quarter.

Current wording

Gross margin as a percent of net sales for the quarter ended December 31, 2025, was 22.7%, compared to 21.0% for the prior year quarter, an increase of 170 basis points (“bps”). The 170-bps increase was primarily driven by favorable sales composition of higher margin products, partially offset by the dilutive impact of tariffs.

Previous wording

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses increased $0.7 million to $17.0 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2025, as compared to $16.3 million in the prior year quarter. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A was 15.4% in the quarter ended September 30, 2025 compared to 15.7% of net sales in the prior year quarter. The 30-bps decrease was mainly due to leverage on higher sales, partially offset by investments in growth initiatives.

Current wording

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses increased $1.7 million to $17.8 million in the quarter ended December 31, 2025, as compared to $16.1 million in the prior year quarter. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A was 15.1% in the quarter ended December 31, 2025 compared to 14.9% of net sales in the prior year quarter. The 20-bps increase was mainly due to investments in growth initiatives.

Previous wording

Income tax expense was $2.1 million, or an effective rate of 21.9% for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared to an income tax expense of $1.9 million, or an effective rate of 31.0% during the quarter ended September 30, 2024. For the quarter ended September 30, 2025, the effective tax rate differs from the statutory tax rate of 21% primarily due to state taxes and the impact of foreign operations, offset by credits for research and development and the impact associated with uncertain tax positions. The decrease in tax rate from the prior year quarter is primarily the result of lesser impact of taxes on foreign operations due to higher profits, a benefit in the current period for the adjustment of uncertain tax positions and a larger credit for research and development compared to the prior year.

Current wording

Income tax expense was $2.7 million, or an effective rate of 28.9% for the quarter ended December 31, 2025, compared to income tax expense of $2.6 million, or an effective rate of 22.4% for the quarter ended December 31, 2024. For the quarter ended December 31, 2025, the effective tax rate differs from the statutory tax rate of 21% primarily due to the impact of foreign operations, state taxes and non-deductible compensation offset by credits for research and development and the impact associated with uncertain tax positions.
