Crown Crafts, Inc. is a leading designer, marketer, and distributor of infant, toddler, and juvenile consumer products, operating primarily through its subsidiaries NoJo Baby & Kids, Inc. and Sassy Baby, Inc. The company offers a wide range of products including bedding, diaper bags, bibs, toys, and disposable items, catering to various retail channels and direct-to-consumer sales.
In its latest earnings report for the second quarter of fiscal 2026, Crown Crafts announced a slight decline in net sales to $23.7 million from $24.5 million in the previous year. Despite this, the company achieved a notable increase in net income, rising to $1.2 million or $0.11 per share, compared to $0.9 million or $0.08 per share in the prior year quarter.
Key financial highlights include a decrease in gross profit margin to 27.7% from 28.4%, attributed to increased tariff costs on imports from China. However, the company successfully reduced marketing and administrative expenses by $0.7 million, which now represent 19.9% of net sales, down from 22.3% in the previous year. This improvement was partly due to the integration of last year’s acquisition.
Crown Crafts continues to focus on cost management and operational efficiency, with plans to consolidate internal operations to eliminate redundant costs. The company is also exploring opportunities to expand its product lines and increase market share, aiming to create long-term shareholder value as consumer demand stabilizes.
Looking ahead, Crown Crafts remains committed to leveraging its acquisitions and strategic initiatives to navigate industry challenges and enhance profitability, positioning itself for sustained growth in the evolving market landscape.
