Financial Outlook

Due to macro-economic and increasing tariff uncertainty, the company expects continued industry sales pressure and is only providing limited financial guidance at this time.
- Consolidated net sales for the fourth quarter expected to show some growth year-over-year (and expected to remain flat sequentially), with an expected increase in the mattress fabrics segment, offset by ongoing pressure on residential upholstery fabric sales due to weak industry demand and impact from the timing of the Chinese new year holiday (which this year falls entirely in the fourth quarter).
- Currently expect continued sequential improvement in adjusted EBITDA (excluding restructuring and related charges), with further improvement in mattress fabrics profitability in the fourth quarter; and a foundation for a return to consolidated operating income in fiscal 2026.
The company’s expectations are based on information available at the time of this press release and reflect certain assumptions by management regarding the company’s business and trends, the projected impact of restructuring actions, and ongoing market headwinds. The company\'s expectations also assume no further meaningful impacts from tariffs and trade negotiations.
