What Happened?
On February 10, 2026, the Company reported fourth quarter full year 2025 results, including, among other things, that net sales fell -1% year over year, missing the Company’s prior guidance of 1%-3% growth, and adjusted operating income also fell to $620 million, missing the Company’s prior guidance of $700 million to $750 million.
During the associated earnings call, management revealed “trade-related uncertainty led retailers to shift orders from the second and third quarters into the fourth quarter” but December results nonetheless “finished lower.” Management further explained that “in response, [the Company] took actions to manage owned inventory… which had a larger-than-expected impact on margins and profitability.”
On this news, shares fell $5.26, or 24.98%, to close at $15.90 on February 11, 2026, thereby injuring investors.
