Dividend sets the near-term calendar

Latest quarter missed sales forecast

For the first quarter of fiscal 2027, ended August 1, 2026, revenue reached USD 290.6 million, up 0.80 percent from the year-earlier quarter, according to StockTitan.

MarketBeat reported a diluted loss per share of USD 0.37 against a consensus loss of USD 0.48, a USD 0.11 improvement versus expectations, while revenue trailed the USD 306.66 million estimate.
