Ethan Allen Offers Peace of Mind for Pet Owners with Stylish, Durable Pet-Friendly Fabrics
Ethan Allen, a leader in classic and contemporary home furnishings, announces the launch of a thoughtfully curated selection of pet-friendly fabrics designed to blend style, comfort, and practicality—perfect for today's pet-loving households. Crafted to meet the unique challenges pets can bring into the home, these fabrics are treated with Scotchgard™ for enhanced durability and stain resistance. The collection allows pet owners to enjoy elegant, stylish furniture—without the worry of muddy paws or fur-covered cushions. The Scotchgard™ treatment forms a protective barrier that repels spills and resists stains caused by common pet accidents. Whether dealing with a tipped water bowl or an unexpected mishap, clean-up is simple and effective—helping upholstery stay fresh and looking new for longer. Beyond stain resistance, the fabrics are tightly woven to withstand everyday wear and tear, including potential scratches or snags from claws. These high-performance materials are engineered to endure without compromising on appearance or comfort. Another thoughtful feature is pet hair resistance. Thanks to the fabric's treated surfaces, fur doesn't cling easily—making it easier to maintain with just a vacuum or a quick wipe-down. As a design-driven brand, Ethan Allen ensures that functionality never comes at the expense of aesthetics. The pet-friendly fabric range is available in a wide variety of colors, textures, and patterns, allowing customers to find upholstery that complements any room and personal style. With this innovative collection, Ethan Allen empowers pet owners to create beautiful, pet-friendly spaces without compromise. Visit Ethan Allen UAE in-store or online to explore the full range.

Ethan Allen Interiors (NYSE:ETD) Is Due To Pay A Dividend Of $0.39
The board of Ethan Allen Interiors Inc. (NYSE:ETD) has announced that it will pay a dividend on the 29th of May, with investors receiving $0.39 per share. The dividend yield will be 7.5% based on this payment which is still above the industry average. Our free stock report includes 2 warning signs investors should be aware of before investing in Ethan Allen Interiors. Read for free now. If the payments aren't sustainable, a high yield for a few years won't matter that much. Based on the last dividend, Ethan Allen Interiors is earning enough to cover the payment, but then it makes up 96% of cash flows. While the company may be more focused on returning cash to shareholders than growing the business at this time, we think that a cash payout ratio this high might expose the dividend to being cut if the business ran into some challenges. EPS is set to fall by 7.0% over the next 12 months. If the dividend continues along the path it has been on recently, the payout ratio in 12 months could be 103%, which is definitely a bit high to be sustainable going forward. Check out our latest analysis for Ethan Allen Interiors The company has a long dividend track record, but it doesn't look great with cuts in the past. Since 2015, the annual payment back then was $0.48, compared to the most recent full-year payment of $1.96. This implies that the company grew its distributions at a yearly rate of about 15% over that duration. Dividends have grown rapidly over this time, but with cuts in the past we are not certain that this stock will be a reliable source of income in the future. With a relatively unstable dividend, it's even more important to see if earnings per share is growing. Ethan Allen Interiors has impressed us by growing EPS at 28% per year over the past five years. The company doesn't have any problems growing, despite returning a lot of capital to shareholders, which is a very nice combination for a dividend stock to have. In summary, while it's good to see that the dividend hasn't been cut, we are a bit cautious about Ethan Allen Interiors' payments, as there could be some issues with sustaining them into the future. With cash flows lacking, it is difficult to see how the company can sustain a dividend payment. This company is not in the top tier of income providing stocks. Market movements attest to how highly valued a consistent dividend policy is compared to one which is more unpredictable. However, there are other things to consider for investors when analysing stock performance.

A: Farooq Kathwari, CEO, explained that Ethan Allen is less impacted by tariffs due to its North American manufacturing base, with only a small portion of products affected by tariffs.

A: Farooq Kathwari, CEO, indicated that while the contract remains, there has been a cautious approach from the State Department recently. They continue to buy, but the volume has decreased slightly due to changes within the department. For the complete transcript of the earnings call, please refer to the full earnings call transcript.
