The group recorded a net loss of $3.7m, or $0.16 per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $7.7m, or $0.59 per diluted share, in Q3 of fiscal 2024.
During Q3, which ended on 1 November 2025, gross profit decreased to $21.1m, equal to 20.4% of net sales, down from $32.1m, or 28.1%, in the same quarter of the previous year.
The decline was mainly due to weaker merchandise margins and the impact of fixed store occupancy costs on lower sales.
Merchandise margins were affected by inventory liquidation ahead of the expansion of Bed Bath & Beyond assortments, and by incremental tariff costs.
