Culp Announces First Quarter Fiscal 2027 Results

$CULPPress releaseSep 9, 2026, 4:05 PM ETRead the release

Culp posted Q1 fiscal 2027 net sales of $54.0 million, up 6.5% year-over-year despite one fewer selling week, and swung to net income of $6.0 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, from a $231 thousand loss a year ago. Earnings quality carries a caveat: $6.9 million of one-time IEEPA tariff refunds from U.S. Customs and Border Protection sit in GAAP results; excluding them, adjusted gross margin still improved roughly 17% to 15.6% of sales and the adjusted operating loss narrowed to $271 thousand from $1.9 million, with adjusted EBITDA positive at $566 thousand.
