MARTINSVILLE, Va., June 11, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hooker Furnishings Corporation (NASDAQ-GS: HOFT) (“Hooker” or the “Company”), a global leader in home furnishings, today reported its operating results for its fiscal 2027 first quarter ended May 3, 2026.
Key Results for the Fiscal 2027 First Quarter:
- The Company generated operating income of $1.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2027, compared to an operating loss of $498,000 in the prior-year period, a $2.1 million improvement.
- Consolidated net sales decreased $1.7 million, or 2.4%, but consolidated gross profit increased $2.7 million, and gross margin improved 440 basis points.
- Hooker Branded drove profitability improvement, with gross profit increasing $2.9 million, and gross margin improving 960 basis points, contributing $1.2 million of operating income despite a 4.8% decrease in net sales.
- All Other net sales increased $605,000, or 11.7%, and the segment generated $1.1 million of operating income.
- The Company reported consolidated net income of $1.1 million, or $0.10 per share, reflecting improved gross margin, results from prior cost-reduction actions and progress toward a leaner, higher-margin operating model focused on core businesses.
Executive Commentary
“We are encouraged to report $1.1 million in consolidated net income for the quarter, a $4.1 million improvement over the prior-year first quarter,” said Jeremy Hoff, Chief Executive Officer. “These improvements were achieved despite a challenging demand environment characterized by depressed housing activity and low consumer confidence.”
“These improvements were primarily attributable to the $17.5 million reduction in fixed costs related to the continuing operations achieved in the prior year. Hooker Branded performed exceptionally well despite lower sales compared to the prior year. Domestic Upholstery’s performance was driven largely by lower sales volume but was bolstered by operational efficiencies implemented last fiscal year,” he continued. “Looking forward, retailer commitments to Margaritaville products, galleries, and free-standing stores continue to exceed our expectations, with meaningful shipments expected to begin in the second half of fiscal 2027.”
“We are also encouraged by the positive retailer response and commitments to products debuted at the April 2026 High Point Market. During the Market, we introduced Hooker Custom Upholstery, bringing together the Sam Moore and Bradington-Young brands under a unified platform. This updated market approach combines these upscale product lines under a unified premium Hooker Custom Upholstery identity, supported by a refreshed showroom presentation, enhanced marketing efforts, and a mix of new introductions and established products. The initiative is further supported by the capabilities of our new website launched in February 2026. Once market conditions improve, we believe this strategy will ultimately drive higher sales by creating a more cohesive brand narrative and presenting all offerings under the Hooker name, which carries the strongest brand recognition across our portfolio.”
Segment Reporting
Hooker Branded
Hooker Branded net sales decreased $1.8 million, or 4.8%, in the first quarter of fiscal 2027. Approximately 70% of the net sales decrease was attributed to the imported upholstery line, where results were impacted by inventory constraints, supply chain delays, product mix transitions and softer retail demand. These headwinds were partially offset by higher average selling prices from price increases implemented to mitigate higher product costs. Despite the sales decrease, Hooker Branded gross profit increased $2.9 million and gross margin improved 960 basis points, contributing $1.2 million of operating income to the Company’s consolidated operating income of $1.6 million for the quarter. Backlog increased nearly 30% compared to the prior-year first quarter, reflecting retailer commitments to new products, including Margaritaville, with meaningful shipments expected in the second half of the current fiscal year.
Domestic Upholstery
Domestic Upholstery net sales decreased $558,000, or 1.9% in the first quarter of fiscal 2027, due to the continued soft demand environment. Gross profit decreased $315,000 and gross margin decreased 80 basis points, driven primarily by lower revenue and higher overhead. The segment recorded an operating loss of $689,000, primarily driven by its indoor residential furnishings businesses. Domestic Upholstery backlog increased modestly compared to both the prior-year first quarter and fiscal 2026 year-end.
All Other
All Other’s performance was driven largely by increased sales and operating income in the hospitality division. Improved operating income was driven by lower costs due to cost-cutting measures implemented in the previous fiscal year.
Import Tariffs
In February 2026, during the Company’s fiscal first quarter, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that certain tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act were not authorized by statute. In March 2026, the U.S. Court of International Trade directed U.S. Customs and Border Protection to implement a refund process for previously collected duties. The order remains subject to appeal and further litigation.
Due to uncertainty regarding the ultimate recoverability timing and amount of any refunds, the Company did not recognize a receivable or any reduction of cost of sales or inventory related to these claims in its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the first quarter of fiscal 2027. Under U.S. GAAP, the Company is applying a gain contingency model to evaluate potential tariff refunds, recognizing such amounts only when recovery is realized or realizable.
Cash, Debt, and Inventory
Cash and cash equivalents stood at $10.6 million, an increase of $9.5 million from prior year-end, with no outstanding term loan balance. Cash generated from operations was used to repay $3.6 million of principal amount of outstanding loans, distribute $1.3 million in cash dividends, and fund $403,000 capital expenditures. Inventory levels decreased by $3.7 million from $48.7 million at year-end to $45.0 million at the current quarter-end.
Despite these outflows, the Company maintained its financial flexibility with $54.2 million in available borrowing capacity under its Amended and Restated Loan Agreement as of the current quarter-end, net of standby letters of credit, and no outstanding balance on the credit facility.
As of June 9, 2026, the Company had over $15 million in cash on hand.
Capital Allocation
“In late fiscal 2026, we announced that our Board authorized a new share repurchase program under which we intend to repurchase up to $5 million of our outstanding common shares beginning in fiscal 2027,” said Earl Armstrong, Chief Financial Officer. “In connection with the repurchase authorization, the Board recalibrated the annual dividend to $0.46 per share, beginning with the Company’s December 31, 2025 dividend payment.”
“The share repurchase program began on April 21, 2026, pursuant to a plan structured to comply with the safe harbors of Rules 10b5-1 and 10b-18, which included a customary 90-day waiting period before the first purchases were made. During the quarter, we repurchased 7,615 shares of our stock for approximately $96,000 at an average price of $12.53 per share.”
“As we position the Company for sustainable growth, the new share repurchase program and adjusted dividend provide a balanced framework for returning capital to shareholders while preserving flexibility to invest in strategic priorities,” said Armstrong. “We believe this approach supports both near-term returns and long-term shareholder value,” he concluded.
Outlook
“Consolidated incoming orders increased 8% in May compared to the prior-year period, while backlog was up 14% year-over-year. The improvement was primarily driven by Margaritaville orders, which had its initial shipment in May,” Hoff added.
“However, housing activity remains pressured, and recent consumer confidence readings continue to reflect a very cautious consumer environment. The Department of Commerce’s April advance monthly estimates showed retail sales for furniture and home furnishings stores declined 2.0% from March and 3.6% from the prior year,” Hoff said.
“Additionally, we continue to monitor tariff developments. Based on currently available information, we expect certain tariffs to be levied on our imported goods later this fiscal year, which will replace, at least in part, the tariffs overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court earlier this year.”
“Our outlook for the fiscal 2027 second quarter is cautious, given the current macro-economic pressures. While we do not expect meaningful near-term improvement in market conditions, our more efficient cost structure and streamlined portfolio should help position us to deliver improved results versus the prior-year period, even if current conditions persist,” he continued.
“Our advantage is a sharper focus on our core businesses, a more disciplined operating model, and an organization aligned around profitable growth,” Hoff said. “While macroeconomic conditions remain challenging and tariff uncertainty persists, we believe the actions taken over the past year have positioned the Company to generate improved and more consistent earnings as market conditions improve.”
“Retailer commitments to Margaritaville products, galleries, and free-standing stores continue to exceed our expectations, with commitments to 100 in-store galleries and 10-free standing retail stores to-date, as compared with about half those numbers when we reported in December. Meaningful shipments are expected to begin in the second half of fiscal 2027 and are expected to build through the end of the current fiscal year and beyond. Combined with continued momentum in incoming orders across our core businesses, we believe we are well positioned to capitalize on opportunities as demand recovers,” Hoff concluded.

Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Those risks and uncertainties include but are not limited to: (1) adverse political acts or developments affecting the international markets from which we import products and certain components used in our Domestic Upholstery segment, including the imposition of duties or tariffs by the U.S. or foreign governments, such as the tariffs under Section 301, antidumping and countervailing duty orders on raw materials like timber and lumber, the potential for additional or higher reciprocal tariffs on imports from key sourcing countries, and other trade restrictions, could affect our supply chain and increase our costs, and adversely affect our sales, earnings, and liquidity; (2) general economic or business conditions, both domestically and internationally, including the current macroeconomic uncertainties and challenges to the retail environment for home furnishings along with instability in the financial and credit markets, in part due to elevated interest rates and housing market volatility, which can affect consumer spending patterns, existing home sales, and demand for home furnishings, including their potential impact on (i) our sales and operating costs and access to financing, (ii) our customers, and (iii) our suppliers and their ability to obtain financing or generate the cash necessary to conduct their respective businesses; (3) the impairment of our long-lived assets, which can result in reduced earnings and net worth; (4) the cyclical nature of the furniture industry, which is particularly sensitive to changes in consumer confidence, the amount of consumers’ income available for discretionary purchases, and the availability and terms of consumer credit; (5) achieving and managing growth and change, and the risks associated with new business lines including the Margaritaville launch, and inherent risks associated with possible acquisitions, including the selection of suitable acquisition targets, restructurings, strategic alliances and international operations; (6) risks associated with the ultimate outcome of our cost reduction efforts, including the amounts and timing of savings realized and the ability to scale the business appropriately as customer demand increases or decreases based on the macroeconomic environment; (7) risks associated with our reliance on offshore sourcing and the cost of imported goods, including fluctuation in the prices of purchased finished goods, customs issues, freight costs, including the price and availability of shipping containers, ocean vessels, domestic trucking, and warehousing costs and the risk that a disruption in our supply chain or the transportation and handling industries, including labor stoppages, strikes, slowdowns, or geopolitical conflicts or instability affecting key global shipping routes and our suppliers, could adversely affect our ability to timely fulfill customer orders; (8) interruption, inadequacy, security breaches or integration failure of our information systems or information technology infrastructure, related service providers or the internet or other related issues including unauthorized disclosures of confidential information, hacking or other cybersecurity threats or inadequate levels of cyber insurance or risks not covered by cyber insurance; (9) difficulties in forecasting demand for our imported products and raw materials used in our domestic operations; (10) our inability to collect amounts owed to us or significant delays in collecting such amounts; (11) the risks associated with our Amended and Restated Loan Agreement, including the fact that our asset-based lending facility is secured by substantially all of our assets and contains provisions which limit the amount of our future borrowings under the facility, as well as financial and negative covenants that, among other things, may limit our ability to incur additional indebtedness; (12) risks associated with domestic manufacturing operations, including fluctuations in capacity utilization and the prices and availability of key raw materials, as well as changes in transportation, warehousing and domestic labor costs, availability of skilled labor, and environmental compliance and remediation costs; (13) risks associated with our self-insured healthcare and workers compensation plans, which utilize stop-loss insurance for aggregate claims above specified thresholds and can be impacted by higher healthcare inflation and expenditures, all of which may cause our healthcare and workers compensation costs to rise unexpectedly, adversely affecting our earnings, financial condition, and liquidity; (14) disruptions and damage (including those due to weather) affecting our Virginia or North Carolina warehouses, our Virginia, North Carolina or California administrative and manufacturing facilities, our High Point, Las Vegas, and Atlanta showrooms or our representative office or warehouse in Vietnam; (15) changes in U.S. and foreign government regulations and in the political, social and economic climates of the countries from which we source our products; (16) risks associated with product defects, including higher than expected costs associated with product quality and safety, regulatory compliance costs related to the sale of consumer products and costs related to defective or non-compliant products, product liability claims and costs to recall defective products and the adverse effects of negative media coverage; (17) the direct and indirect costs and time spent by our associates related to the implementation of our Enterprise Resource Planning system (“ERP”), including costs resulting from unanticipated disruptions to our business; (18) risks associated with distribution through third-party retailers, such as non-binding dealership arrangements; (19) changes in domestic and international monetary policies and fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates affecting the price of our imported products and raw materials; (20) price competition in the furniture industry; (21) changes in consumer preferences, including increased demand for lower-priced furniture, especially in light of recently imposed tariffs on imported furniture; (22) the risks specifically related to the concentrations of a material part of our sales and accounts receivable in only a few customers, including the loss of several large customers through business consolidations, failures or other reasons, or the loss of significant sales programs with major customers; (23) decisions concerning the allocation of capital including the extent to which we repurchase shares of our common stock which will affect shares outstanding and earnings per share (EPS); (24) future actions by activist stockholders that could divert management attention, create uncertainty around our strategic direction, disrupt relationships with key shareholders, increase our costs, drive stock price volatility, and otherwise materially impact our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows; and (25) other risks and uncertainties described under Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 1, 2026 and other filings with the SEC.
