    MONROE, Mich., Feb. 17, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- La-Z-Boy Incorporated (NYSE:LZB), a global leader in the retail and manufacture of residential furniture, today reported third quarter results for the period ended January 24, 2026. For the quarter, sales totaled $542 million, up 4% against the prior year comparable period, reflecting growth in Retail and Wholesale segments, partially offset by a decline in Joybird sales. Operating margin was 5.5% for the quarter on a GAAP basis and 6.1% on an adjusted(1) basis. Diluted earnings per share totaled $0.52 on a GAAP basis and $0.61 on an adjusted(1) basis.

    Third quarter total written sales for the Retail segment (company-owned La-Z-Boy stores) increased 11% versus a year ago and written same-store sales (which exclude the impact of both newly opened stores and newly acquired stores) were down 4%. During the quarter, same-store sales trends were strongest in January with the exception of adverse weather, which slowed traffic late in the month.

    Melinda D. Whittington, Board Chair, President and Chief Executive Officer of La-Z-Boy Incorporated, said, "Our strong third quarter results are proof that we continue to strengthen our enterprise and increase the agility of our business. Amid the ongoing challenging consumer environment, we continue to create our own momentum, led by Retail expansion through both acquired and new stores, driving double-digit sales growth in our written and delivered business in the quarter. Over the last twelve months, we have added 29 net company-owned stores, reflecting 16 new, 17 acquired, and four closed. And our current proportion of company-owned stores is now at an all-time high of ~60% of total network. Growing our La-Z-Boy brand reach by expanding our direct-to-consumer business remains a key pillar of our Century Vision strategy.

    Furthermore, the momentum in our Wholesale segment remains solid, delivering our seventh consecutive quarter of growth in our core North America La-Z-Boy wholesale business. In addition, we are making meaningful progress on the strategic initiatives announced last quarter to focus on our core business of branded, customized upholstered furniture. Our vertically integrated model with ~90% of upholstered products produced in the U.S. is a key competitive advantage. This has served as the foundation throughout our 99-year history and continues to be a strength as we navigate the challenging macroeconomic environment."

    Whittington added, "As a testament to our enduring impact and cultural relevance, La-Z-Boy Incorporated has been recognized by TIME magazine as one of America's Most Iconic Companies for 2026. This award reflects the lasting connection generations of families have built with our beloved brand. Looking ahead, we will continue to honor our heritage of comfort and quality while evolving to succeed in any environment, guided by our mission of transforming rooms, homes, and communities."

    Fourth Quarter Outlook:

    Taylor Luebke, SVP and Chief Financial Officer of La-Z-Boy Incorporated, said, "During the quarter, we made meaningful advancements in our Century Vision strategic initiatives and executed well operationally, with delivered sales and adjusted(1) operating margin both towards the high end of our guidance range even in a challenging environment. We expect fourth quarter sales to be in the range of $560-580 million and adjusted operating margin(2) to be in the range of 7.5-9.0%, reflecting a continued cautious view on the macroeconomic backdrop as well as the short-term impact of recent adverse weather events."

    Fiscal 2026 Third Quarter Results versus Fiscal 2025 Third Quarter
    :

    • Consolidated sales in the third quarter of Fiscal 2026 increased 4% to $542 million versus last year, as growth in our Retail and Wholesale business was partially offset by lower delivered volume in our Joybird business
    • Consolidated GAAP operating margin was 5.5% versus 6.7%
      • Consolidated adjusted(1) operating margin was 6.1% versus 6.8% last year, with the change driven by investments in our distribution and home delivery transformation project
    • GAAP diluted EPS was $0.52 versus $0.68 in the prior year period, and adjusted(1) diluted EPS of $0.61 versus $0.68 last year in the comparable period

    Retail Segment:

    • Sales:
      • Written sales for the Retail segment (company-owned La-Z-Boy stores) increased 11% compared to the year ago period driven by acquired and new stores
        • Written same-store sales (which exclude the impact of new and acquired stores) decreased 4%, as lower traffic was partially offset by higher conversion rates, average ticket, and design sales. During the quarter, same-store sales trends were strongest in January with the exception of dramatic weather events late in the month
      • Delivered sales increased 11% to $252 million, primarily due to growth from acquired and new stores
    • Operating Margin:
      • GAAP operating margin was 10.5% versus 10.7%
        • Adjusted(1) operating margin was 10.7% versus 10.7%, as accretion from acquisitions was offset by investment in new stores and fixed cost deleverage from lower delivered same-store sales

    Wholesale Segment:

    • Sales:
      • Sales increased 1% to $367 million versus last year, driven by modest growth across the majority of our businesses, including our core North America La-Z-Boy wholesale business
    • Operating Margin:
      • GAAP operating margin was 5.2% versus 6.5%
        • Adjusted(1) operating margin was 6.0% versus 6.5%, driven primarily by expenses related to investments in our distribution and home delivery transformation project and unfavorable foreign exchange rates

    Corporate & Other:

    • Joybird written sales decreased 13%, as this consumer segment continues to be particularly volatile against the current macroeconomic backdrop
    • Joybird delivered sales decreased 3% to $36 million on lower delivered volume
    • Corporate & Other operating loss increased versus the prior year, primarily due to expense deleverage on lower Joybird delivered sales

    Balance Sheet and Cash Flow, Fiscal 2026 Third Quarter:

    • Ended the quarter with $306 million in cash(3) and no external debt
    • Generated $89 million in cash from operating activities, increasing 57% versus the third quarter of last fiscal year. Year to date, cash flow from operations was $176 million, up 40% from last year's comparable period
    • Invested $18 million in capital expenditures, primarily related to La-Z-Boy stores (new stores and remodels), manufacturing-related investments, and spending related to our distribution and home delivery transformation
    • Returned approximately $24 million to shareholders, including $10 million in dividends, and resumed more normalized share repurchases of $14 million

    Dividend:

    On February 17, 2026, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.242 per share on the common stock of the company. The dividend will be paid on March 13, 2026, to shareholders of record on March 3, 2026.

    (2)This reference to adjusted operating margin for a future period is an adjusted financial measure. We have not provided a reconciliation of adjusted operating margin for future periods in this press release because such reconciliation cannot be provided without unreasonable efforts.

    (3)Cash includes cash and cash equivalents.

    Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements:

    This news release contains "forward-looking" statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. Generally, forward-looking statements include information concerning expectations, projections or trends relating to our results of operations, financial results, financial condition, strategic initiatives and plans, acquisitions, divestitures, expenses, dividends, share repurchases, liquidity, use of cash and cash requirements, borrowing capacity, investments, future economic performance, and our business and industry.

    The forward-looking statements in this press release are based on certain assumptions and currently available information and are subject to various risks and uncertainties, many of which are unforeseeable and beyond our control. Additional risks and uncertainties that we do not presently know about or that we currently consider to be immaterial may also affect our business operations and financial results. Our actual future results and trends may differ materially depending on a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, the risks and uncertainties discussed in our Fiscal 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K and other factors identified in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. Given these risks and uncertainties, you should not rely on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results. We are including this cautionary note to make applicable and take advantage of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 for forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or for any other reason.

    Adjusted Financial Measures:

    In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"), this press release also includes adjusted financial measures. Management uses these adjusted financial measures when assessing our ongoing performance. This press release contains references to adjusted operating income (on a consolidated basis and by segment), adjusted operating margin (on a consolidated basis and by segment), and adjusted net income attributable to La-Z-Boy Incorporated per diluted share, adjusted diluted earnings per share (and components thereof, including adjusted income before income taxes and adjusted net income attributable to La-Z-Boy Incorporated), each of which may exclude, as applicable, distribution and home delivery transformation charges, business realignment charges or gains, supply chain optimization charges or gains, and purchase accounting charges. The distribution and home delivery transformation charges in Fiscal 2026 include accelerated lease expense, severance costs, and costs associated with exiting former distribution centers. The business realignment charges in Fiscal 2026 include a gain on sale of Casegoods headquarters building and related fixed assets and the impairment of casegoods inventory held for sale. The supply chain optimization charges in Fiscal 2026 include severance costs related to the closure of our U.K. manufacturing operations. The purchase accounting charges include the amortization of intangible assets and incremental expense upon the sale of inventory acquired at fair value. These adjusted financial measures are not meant to be considered superior to or a substitute for La-Z-Boy Incorporated's results of operations prepared in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Reconciliations of such adjusted financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are set forth in the accompanying tables.

    Management believes that presenting certain adjusted financial measures will help investors understand the long-term profitability trends of our business and compare our profitability to prior and future periods and to our peers. Management excludes purchase accounting charges because the amount and timing of such charges are significantly impacted by the timing, size, number and nature of the acquisitions consummated and the success with which we operate the businesses acquired. While the company has a history of acquisition activity, it does not acquire businesses on a predictable cycle, and the impact of purchase accounting charges is unique to each acquisition and can vary significantly from acquisition to acquisition. Similarly, distribution and home delivery transformation charges, business realignment charges, and supply chain optimization charges are dependent on the timing, size, number and nature of the operations being opened or closed, consolidated or centralized, and the charges may not be incurred on a predictable cycle. Management believes that exclusion of these items facilitates more consistent comparisons of the company's operating results over time. Where applicable, the accompanying "Reconciliation of GAAP to Adjusted Financial Measures" tables present the excluded items net of tax calculated using the effective tax rate from operations for the period in which the adjustment is presented.
