Hooker Furnishings divests casegoods brands to Magnussen Home

Hooker Furniture ( (HOFT) ) has provided an update.

On December 12, 2025, Hooker Furnishings completed the sale of its Pulaski Furniture and Samuel Lawrence Furniture casegoods brands, along with related assets and liabilities, to Magnussen Home Furnishings for approximately $6.1 million, subject to customary post-closing adjustments, with about $5.5 million received at closing and roughly 10% of the price held back for 210 days for indemnification and final pricing true-ups. The deal, announced in a December 15, 2025 press release, allows Hooker to retain its Samuel Lawrence Hospitality line under an exclusive, royalty-free license to continue using the brand name while securing a three-year non-compete from Magnussen in the U.S. hospitality market, and it also removes about $4.8 million in showroom lease liabilities as Magnussen assumes the High Point showroom lease, positioning Hooker for improved profitability and a more focused portfolio as it pursues shareholder value initiatives and growth in its remaining businesses.
