Ethan Allen Interiors (NYSE:ETD – Get Free Report) announced its quarterly earnings data on Wednesday. The company reported $0.36 EPS for the quarter, beating the consensus estimate of $0.34 by $0.02, FiscalAI reports.

Here are the key takeaways from Ethan Allen Interiors’ conference call:
- Demand weakened in the fourth quarter, with retail written orders down 10.8% and wholesale orders down 11.9% amid lower traffic, macroeconomic uncertainty, and a difficult prior-year comparison. Wholesale backlog fell 9% to $44 million.
- Fourth-quarter adjusted operating margin declined to 7.4% from 9.7% a year earlier, pressured by tariffs, higher manufacturing input costs, lower clearance margins, and fixed-cost deleveraging from lower sales. Management estimates total tariff exposure at approximately $15 million.
- Despite lower sales, Ethan Allen generated $52 million of full-year operating cash flow and ended fiscal 2026 with $187.5 million in cash and investments, while remaining debt-free. The board approved a regular quarterly dividend of $0.39 and a special dividend of $0.25, both payable in August.
- Management said its vertically integrated model, North American manufacturing, redesigned retail network, interior-design services, new products, and increased use of technology position the company for growth in fiscal 2027. State Department orders also began to recover late in the quarter, although the broader consumer environment remains uncertain.
