The risks most specific to Crown Crafts
The loss of one or more of the Company’s key customers could result in a material loss of revenues
The company's top two customers represented approximately 66% of gross sales in fiscal year 2025, and the loss of any key customer would severely reduce revenues.
The loss of one or more of the Company’s licenses could result in a material loss of revenues
Licensed products generated 50% of gross sales in fiscal year 2025, with Disney agreements alone accounting for 21% of sales.
The imposition of tariffs on imports from China have adversely affected the cost and sourcing of the Company’s products, among other things
The company relies on foreign contract manufacturers primarily in China, exposing product costs and sourcing to U.S.-imposed tariffs.
The Company’s business is impacted by general economic conditions and related uncertainties, including a declining birthrate, affecting markets in which the Company operates
Company growth depends heavily on the birthrate, particularly first births, which face pressure from declining rates and economic uncertainties.
Economic conditions could result in an increase in the amounts paid for the Company’s products
Significant increases in freight costs, labor, and raw materials like cotton and oil could increase supplier prices for finished goods.
Recalls or product liability claims could increase costs or reduce sales
The Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act imposes strict standards and mandatory testing for lead and phthalates on infant and toddler products.
The Company’s debt covenants may affect its liquidity or limit its ability to pursue acquisitions, incur debt, make investments, sell assets or complete other significant transactions
