Meet Samuel – Your Personal Investing Prophet

Spin Master ( (TSE:TOY) ) has provided an update.

Spin Master reported a challenging fourth quarter of 2025 as revenue fell 4.8% to $618.2 million and it swung to a net loss of $184.3 million, driven largely by $229.1 million in non‑cash goodwill and intangible asset impairments. Despite softer sales and lower free cash flow, underlying profitability remained relatively resilient, with adjusted EBITDA down only slightly and margin improving, while strong operating cash flow supported continued investment in technology, supply chain diversification, toy innovation, entertainment content and digital platforms.

The company also maintained shareholder returns, repurchasing shares under its normal course issuer bid, declaring a quarterly dividend and signaling confidence in its balance sheet and leverage. Looking to 2026, Spin Master projects stable to low single‑digit revenue growth and mid to high single‑digit adjusted EBITDA growth, suggesting a focus on a return to sustainable expansion through innovation in its core toy portfolio, digital platforms and expanded collaboration across creative centers.
