Executive summary
Fourth quarter revenue was flat at $212.9 million, marking a sequential improvement from double-digit declines in Q2 and Q3, driven by gains in Commercial and Health segments and offsetting a modest decline in core consumer business.
Q4 operating profit grew 8% to $25.4 million, with gross margin up 220 basis points to 28.3%, reflecting successful pricing strategies and improved product mix.
Full-year 2025 revenue declined 7.3% to $606.9 million, with gross margin down 30 basis points to 25.7% and operating profit down 15.3% to $36.6 million, mainly due to lower U.S. consumer volumes as retailers adjusted to higher tariffs.
Net income for Q4 was $18.5 million ($1.38/share), down from $24.0 million ($1.75/share) last year; full-year net income was $26.5 million ($1.95/share), down from $30.8 million ($2.20/share) in 2024.
Strategic actions included manufacturing diversification, selective pricing, cost management, and inventory control, positioning the company for growth in 2026.
Financial highlights
Q4 revenue: $212.9M, down 0.3% year-over-year; full-year revenue: $606.9M, down 7.3%.
Q4 gross profit: $60.2M (up 8%, 28.3% margin); Q4 operating profit: $25.4M (up 8%, 11.9% margin).
Q4 SG&A expenses increased to $34.7M, driven by higher compensation, advertising, and ERP system write-off.
Full-year SG&A decreased to $119.3M from $126.7M, reflecting restructuring and lower incentive compensation.
Cash flow from operating activities for 2025 was $13.8M, down from $65.4M in 2024, mainly due to increased net working capital and lower payables.
Outlook and guidance
2026 revenue expected to return to mid-single-digit growth, despite a $22M headwind from the expiration of the Bartesian license.
Gross margins in 2026 expected to be similar or slightly better than 2025; operating profit projected to decline low teens percent due to $6M accelerated ERP depreciation and $6M incremental advertising spend.
Cash flow from operating activities less investing expected at $35M–$45M in 2026.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
