The latest announcement is out from Jewett-Cameron Trading Company ( (JCTC) ).
Jewett-Cameron reported a 7% year-over-year decline in fiscal Q1 2026 revenue to $8.7 million, as growth in its core metal fencing and Greenwood industrial wood lines was more than offset by weaker lumber and pet product sales amid efforts to sell excess inventory in challenging market conditions. Gross margin swung sharply to negative 12.5% from a positive 18.3%, largely due to $2.2 million in inventory write-downs on pet and lumber products and liquidation of previously reserved stock, contributing to an expanded net loss of $3.9 million versus $659,000 a year earlier, even as the company cut headcount, renegotiated customer agreements to better align prices with costs, secured a more flexible lending agreement, and pursued monetization of non-core assets and potential divestitures to refocus on its core businesses and long-term sustainable growth.
The most recent analyst rating on (JCTC) stock is a Hold with a $2.50 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Jewett-Cameron Trading Company stock, see the JCTC Stock Forecast page.
Spark’s Take on JCTC Stock
According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, JCTC is a Neutral.
The score is held down primarily by weakening financial performance (multi-year revenue decline, latest-year net loss, and highly volatile/negative recent cash flow) despite a conservatively levered balance sheet. Technicals are neutral-to-weak with the stock below key longer-term moving averages, and valuation is constrained by negative earnings. Earnings-call commentary shows credible cost-cut plans and a focus on the stable metal fence business, but tariffs, segment weakness, and liquidity actions remain significant overhangs.
