The earnings call highlighted Lifetime Brands' effective strategies in cost management, tariff mitigation, and product innovation, positioning the company for future growth. However, the current challenges from a declining shipment and sales volume, along with the impact of tariffs, resulted in a net loss for the quarter, balancing the overall sentiment.

Company Guidance

During the Lifetime Brands Third Quarter 2025 earnings call, the company provided guidance underlining several financial metrics and strategic initiatives. The company reported a net loss of $1.2 million or $0.05 per diluted share, compared to a net income of $0.3 million or $0.02 per diluted share in the same quarter of 2024. Adjusted net income was $2.5 million, or $0.11 per share, down from $4.5 million or $0.21 per share in the previous year. The revenue for the third quarter stood at $171.9 million, marking a decline of 6.5% from the previous year. The company observed a gross margin decrease to 35.1% from 36.7% in 2024, primarily due to price increases aimed at offsetting higher tariffs. SG&A expenses in the U.S. decreased by 5% year-over-year, reflecting disciplined cost management and operational efficiencies. The company also highlighted its liquidity position at $51 million and adjusted EBITDA of $47.2 million for the trailing 12 months ended September 30, 2025. Furthermore, Lifetime Brands is adapting its sourcing strategy, with a flexible supply chain responding to evolving tariff environments, and is exploring M&A opportunities with attractive valuations due to the current market conditions.
