Crown Crafts, Inc. is a leading American company specializing in the design, marketing, and distribution of infant, toddler, and juvenile consumer products, including bedding, diaper bags, bibs, toys, and disposable products. Operating through its subsidiaries, Crown Crafts serves a diverse range of retail channels with both company-owned trademarks and licensed collections.
Crown Crafts has released its financial results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, reporting a slight decline in net sales and gross profit compared to the previous year. The company’s performance was notably impacted by increased tariffs, although the acquisition of Baby Boom contributed positively to sales figures.
The company reported net sales of $15.5 million, a decrease from $16.2 million in the same quarter last year, and a net loss of $1.10 million, or $0.10 per share, compared to a net loss of $0.3 million, or $0.03 per share, in the prior-year quarter. While sales of bedding and diaper bags increased, other product categories saw a decline. The gross profit margin also decreased due to higher tariff costs, and marketing and administrative expenses rose, partly due to the Baby Boom acquisition.
Despite these challenges, Crown Crafts declared a quarterly dividend of $0.08 per share, reflecting its commitment to returning value to shareholders. The company remains focused on navigating the tariff environment and exploring strategies to mitigate their impact while aiming to increase sales and market share.
Looking ahead, Crown Crafts’ management is cautiously optimistic, focusing on strategic initiatives to enhance market presence and operational efficiency, while continuing to adapt to the evolving economic landscape.
