Mixed Impact 3 of 5 earnings Written later

Culp reported fourth-quarter fiscal 2026 net sales of $51.6 million, up 5.8% from a year earlier, but its net loss widened slightly to $2.2 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, from $2.1 million, or $0.17 per share. For the full year ended May 3, 2026, sales fell 4.6% to $203.5 million while the net loss narrowed to $10.2 million, or $0.81 per share, from $19.1 million. The company expects to recover about $7.0 million in IEEPA tariff refunds in the first quarter of fiscal 2027, which it says should reduce net debt to about $5.0 million at that quarter-end.
