“We completed our fiscal year with another quarter of solid results reflecting the strength of our many exciting brands and the hard work of our talented team,” said Olivia Elliott, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We drove improved gross margins and generated more than $8 million of operating cash flow during the fiscal year, through strategic pricing, a more favorable mix of higher-margin products, and ongoing spending discipline, while the operating environment continued to be challenging. In May, we successfully relaunched Manhattan Toy’s Groovy Girls which reflects our ongoing internal focus on new product development. Looking ahead to the new fiscal year, we’re confident in our positioning and ability to capitalize on any improvement in consumer demand, and we will continue our efforts with respect to creative product development and internal efficiencies as we seek to further enhance long-term stockholder value.”

Third Quarter Summary

• Net sales of $20.7 million compared with $23.4 million in the prior-year quarter.
• Gross profit margin of 23.5% compared with 26.1% in the prior-year quarter.
• Net income of $1.5 million increased from $0.9 million in the prior-year quarter.

• Declared a quarterly dividend of $0.08 per share of Series A common stock.
  

“We believe our third quarter results demonstrate the diligent efforts of our team and resilience of our business model as we work to overcome the challenging demand environment and the ongoing effects of higher tariffs,” said Olivia Elliott, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We are committed to driving profitability as we continue to execute on pricing and cost actions to offset the pressure on sales and are encouraged by the positive performance in our bibs, toys and disposable categories during the holiday season.”

“Looking ahead, we are thrilled to announce the relaunch of Manhattan Toy’s Groovy Girls and remain focused on what we can control – internal product development, driving mix toward higher-margin product, carefully managing expenses, and prudently managing our balance sheet,” added Ms. Elliott. “We continue to navigate an environment marked by uneven consumer spending and elevated tariffs, but we believe our brands, customer relationships and category positions have us well prepared to enhance long-term shareholder value as conditions normalize.”

GONZALES, Louisiana, Feb. 09, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Crown Crafts, Inc. (NASDAQ-CM: CRWS) (the “Company”) today announced that its Manhattan Toy® brand’s Groovy Girls, the iconic soft fashion dolls that sparked joy and self-expression for a generation, are back! Launching at the North American International Toy Fair, the new Groovy Girls collection features fresh designs and diverse characters that celebrate confidence, creativity, and inclusive play.

Originally introduced in the late 1990s, Groovy Girls quickly became a favorite for their bold styles, soft construction, wholesome play, and celebration of individuality. Now, they’re reimagined for today’s kids, and for the Millennial and Gen Z parents who remember the fun and funky originals. Each doll is uniquely designed with vibrant hairstyles, diverse skin tones, and fashion-forward outfits while still embracing the brand’s original soft, huggable form and groovy spirit.

“Groovy Girls have always been more than just dolls, they’re characters that kids connect with, stories waiting to be told,” said Kelly Anderson, Vice President of Marketing of Sassy Baby, Inc. (“Sassy”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. “We’ve designed this new collection to reflect the world kids see around them today - full of diversity, color, and possibility - while keeping the playful essence that made Groovy Girls so popular in the first place.”

The Groovy Girls doll collection includes five keepsake dolls, each with her own unique style and personality. Every posable soft doll features stylable hair, removable, fashionable outfits that are collectible, and new magnetic hands for interactive play. Dolls are crafted for children aged 3 to 6 with a suggested retail price of $29.99 each, and will be available starting May 2026:

• Rose: A star athlete and a total style icon! Whether she’s crossing the finish line or hanging out with her friends, she loves rocking outfits that move with her through every activity. She may not win every race, but she is always looking to grow, improve, and cheer on others along the way. With a competitive spirit and a love for teamwork, Rose is always ready to lift others up while chasing her own dreams!
  
  
• Saige: A sweetheart with endless energy and a soft spot for all things furry, Saige is always on the go – whether with her built-in bestie, her mom, or a four-legged friend. Dressed in comfy-cute leisure gear, she views every day as an adventure and smiles through life with confidence and charisma. From the playground to the dog park, Saige makes new friends wherever she goes.
  
  
• Poppy: Top of her class and always ready to lend a helping hand. Whether she's tutoring younger students or solving tricky homework problems, she's your go-to girl for answers and encouragement. Her signature schooltime-chic style is as polished as her report card and perfect for moving from the classroom to after-school fun with friends. With a passion for learning and a heart for helping others, Poppy is proof that smart is seriously stylish!
  
  
• Iris: All about fun, flair, and everything pink! She twirls through life in her favorite tutu, always ready for a spontaneous dance party filled with spins, leaps, and laughter. Her half-up hairstyle is tied with a sweet bow, keeping her look perfectly in place no matter where the day takes her. With a free spirit and a heart full of adventure, Iris brings her own sparkle to every moment because being bold, bright, and true to herself is what she does best!
  
  
• Daisy: With a heart as warm as the sunshine! Daisy spends her days tending flowers in her garden, making friends with the animals who stop by, and sharing the joy of nature with everyone she meets. Dressed in her favorite floral overalls and trusty rain boots, she’s always ready for a day filled with planting, creating, and enjoying the warmth of the sun. Whether she’s picking wildflowers for her friends or introducing them to her furry companions, Daisy feels most like herself when she’s connected to the world around her.
  
  

The new Groovy Girls doll collection, featuring (from left) Rose, Saige, Poppy, Iris, and Daisy,
will be available beginning in May 2026 at specialty retailers and manhattantoy.com.

Second Quarter Summary

• Net sales of $23.7 million compared to $24.5 million in the prior year quarter
  
• Gross profit of 27.7 percent compared to 28.4 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2025
  
• Net income grew to $1.2 million or $0.11 per share, up from $0.9 million or $0.08 per share in the prior year quarter
  
• Declared quarterly dividend of $0.08 per share of Series A common stock
  

“Our stronger net income reflects our ability to successfully navigate what is widely believed to be one of the most disruptive backdrops our industry has faced in recent history,” stated Olivia Elliott, President and Chief Executive Officer. “While overall sales declined slightly during the quarter, we were able to grow the bottom line despite tariff costs continuing to pressure margins and overall profitability.

We are working diligently to manage costs during this period, successfully reducing marketing and administrative expenses as we integrate last year’s acquisition. Since the end of the quarter, we announced that we are consolidating our internal operations in an effort to eliminate redundant costs and realize additional savings that arise from right-sizing administrative costs. We will continue to search for opportunities to reduce costs while at the same time focusing on increasing sales and market share.

Overall, we continue to seek to leverage our prior acquisitions, expand product lines as appropriate, and utilize pricing actions to position the company for success and create long-term shareholder value as consumer demand normalizes.”

Second Quarter Fiscal 2026 Results

Net sales were $23.7 million for the three months ended September 28, 2025, compared with $24.5 million for the three months ended September 29, 2024. Sales of bedding and diaper bags decreased by $1.6 million, while the sales of bibs, toys and disposable products increased by $0.8 million.  

Gross profit for the second quarter decreased by $0.4 million from the prior year reflecting a margin of 27.7% as compared to 28.4% in the prior year period, primarily due to increased tariff costs associated with products imported from China.

Marketing and administrative expenses improved $0.7 million representing 19.9% of net sales for the three-month period ended September 28, 2025 from 22.3% of net sales for the three-month period ended September 29, 2024.
