Tandy Leather Factory Reports First Quarter 2025 Results

FORT WORTH, Texas, May 12, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tandy Leather Factory, Inc. (Nasdaq: TLF) today announced the Company's financial results for the first fiscal quarter of 2025. Highlights from first quarter 2025: Revenues were $19.0 million, down 1.2% from 2024 Generated operating income of $0.3 million Net income from operations of $0.3 million, down from $0.7 million in 2024 Gross margins of 56.3%, down from 56.7% in 2024 Operating expenses $10.5 million, up 1.8% from 2024 Adjusted net income of $0.4 million Adjusted EBITDA* (from operations) of $0.6 million Ended quarter with $23.6 million of cash and cash equivalents Tandy Leather Factory's first quarter sales were $19.0 million in 2025, down from $19.3 million in 2024. First quarter 2025 gross profit was $10.7 million, down from $10.9 million in 2024. As of March 31, 2025, the Company held $23.6 million of cash and cash equivalents, up from $12.3 million a year earlier; this increase reflects the proceeds from the sale of the Company's corporate headquarters in January 2025 (the 'HQ Sale'), offset by cash used in operations in the first quarter of approximately $0.5 million and the payment of a special dividend to stockholders of approximately $12.7 million. The Company held inventory of $34.4 million, down from $35.6 million as of December 31, 2024. The Company had basic net income in the quarter of $1.49 and diluted net income of $1.47 per share, versus $0.06 basic and diluted per share in the prior year; first quarter 2025 includes adjusted net income from operations of $0.05 basic and diluted per share. Johan Hedberg, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, said, 'In the first quarter, we completed the sale of our corporate headquarters building, which allowed us to pay our stockholders a substantial dividend of $1.50 per share. As we have announced previously, our move to a new headquarters in Q3 of this year is still expected to lead to significantly increased costs and likely operating losses for full year 2025. Already underway with moving-related efforts, we were pleased to still achieve first quarter sales and operating income that were somewhat ahead of our internal forecasts. We hope to continue that momentum through the second quarter and beyond, while noting that we have not yet felt the full impact of the coming tariffs on the U.S. economy and our products, which are nearly all imported. If tariffs remain at the currently-announced levels, this will necessarily require us to increase our retail prices and likely lead to unavoidable declines in our sales and profits.' Investors are encouraged to send their questions to the Company's investor relations hotline at investorrelations@ * Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that the Company believes helps investors to compare its operating performance to that of other companies.

Tandy Leather Factory (NASDAQ:TLF) shareholders have endured a 14% loss from investing in the stock a year ago

The simplest way to benefit from a rising market is to buy an index fund. But if you buy individual stocks, you can do both better or worse than that. Investors in Tandy Leather Factory, Inc. (NASDAQ:TLF) have tasted that bitter downside in the last year, as the share price dropped 38%. That's disappointing when you consider the market declined 1.9%. We note that it has not been easy for shareholders over three years, either; the share price is down 36% in that time. The share price has dropped 39% in three months. But this could be related to the weak market, which is down 16% in the same period. It's worthwhile assessing if the company's economics have been moving in lockstep with these underwhelming shareholder returns, or if there is some disparity between the two. So let's do just that. This technology could replace computers: discover the 20 stocks are working to make quantum computing a reality. While the efficient markets hypothesis continues to be taught by some, it has been proven that markets are over-reactive dynamic systems, and investors are not always rational. One flawed but reasonable way to assess how sentiment around a company has changed is to compare the earnings per share (EPS) with the share price. Unfortunately Tandy Leather Factory reported an EPS drop of 78% for the last year. This fall in the EPS is significantly worse than the 38% the share price fall. It may have been that the weak EPS was not as bad as some had feared. The graphic below depicts how EPS has changed over time (unveil the exact values by clicking on the image). Before buying or selling a stock, we always recommend a close examination of historic growth trends, available here . As well as measuring the share price return, investors should also consider the total shareholder return (TSR). The TSR incorporates the value of any spin-offs or discounted capital raisings, along with any dividends, based on the assumption that the dividends are reinvested. So for companies that pay a generous dividend, the TSR is often a lot higher than the share price return. As it happens, Tandy Leather Factory's TSR for the last 1 year was -14%, which exceeds the share price return mentioned earlier. And there's no prize for guessing that the dividend payments largely explain the divergence! We regret to report that Tandy Leather Factory shareholders are down 14% for the year (even including dividends). Unfortunately, that's worse than the broader market decline of 1.9%. However, it could simply be that the share price has been impacted by broader market jitters. It might be worth keeping an eye on the fundamentals, in case there's a good opportunity. Longer term investors wouldn't be so upset, since they would have made 2%, each year, over five years. It could be that the recent sell-off is an opportunity, so it may be worth checking the fundamental data for signs of a long term growth trend. I find it very interesting to look at share price over the long term as a proxy for business performance. But to truly gain insight, we need to consider other information, too.

FORT WORTH, Texas, Feb. 26, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tandy Leather Factory, Inc. (Nasdaq: TLF) today announced the Company's financial results for the fourth fiscal quarter and full year 2024. Highlights from 2024: Revenues were $74.4 million, down 2.4% from 2023 Generated operating income of $0.6 million Net income of $0.8 million, down from $3.8 million in 2023 Gross margins of 56.2%, down from 59.2% in 2023 Operating expenses $41.2 million, up 1.0% from 2023 Adjusted EBITDA* of $2.6 million Ended year with $13.3 million of cash and cash equivalents Tandy Leather Factory's fourth quarter sales were $20.5 million in 2024, down from $20.8 million in 2023. Fourth quarter 2024 gross profit was $10.8 million, down from $11.5 million in 2023. As of December 31, 2024, the Company held $13.3 million of cash and cash equivalents, up from $12.2 million a year earlier. The Company held inventory of $35.6 million, down from $38.0 million as of December 31, 2023. The Company had basic and diluted net income in the quarter of $0.04 per share, versus $0.23 in the prior year. The Company's full year sales were $74.4 million in 2024, down from $76.2 million in 2023. Operating expenses increased to $41.2 million up from $40.8 million in 2023 and increased as a percentage of sales to 55.4% from 53.5% in 2023. 2024 full year gross profit was $41.8 million, or 56.2%, vs $45.2 million, or 59.2%, in 2023. Net income was $0.8 million in 2024, compared to $3.8 million in 2023. Additional details regarding the Company's 2024 results can be found in its Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on February 26, 2025. Johan Hedberg, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, said, 'In 2024, against a backdrop of weaker retail sales in the U.S., Tandy was able to slow, but not fully stop, the trend of decreasing retail sales. At the same time, inflation in labor and materials drove an increase in our operating expenses. While we were able to remain profitable and increase our year-end cash, we are disappointed with the Company's results. We were able to return substantial value to our stockholders with the sale of our corporate headquarters building, which closed last month, and the payment this month of a substantial dividend of $1.50 per share. 'Looking ahead to 2025, we hope to drive improved sales in our stores and e-commerce channel and plan to decrease the number of store moves, which led to short-term sales declines last year. However, we expect that significant costs relating to the move of our headquarters facilities and flagship store in Fort Worth, and shifting from owning to leasing those properties, will negatively impact our ability to be profitable in 2025, and cause some unavoidable disruption to sales. Our goal is to accomplish this transition as smoothly and efficiently as possible to position the Company for a rebound in both sales and profits in 2026,' Mr. Hedberg continued. Investors are encouraged to send their questions to the Company's investor relations hotline at investorrelations@ * Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that the Company believes helps investors to compare its operating performance to that of other companies.
