At the Midwest IDEAS conference, Flexsteel reported eleven consecutive quarters of year‑over‑year growth and an adjusted operating margin that rose from about 1% (2022) to 7.5% (fiscal 2026). Annual revenue is around $500 million, free cash flow recently exceeded $40 million per year, and more than $160 million has been returned to shareholders since 2020. The company uses a hybrid supply model (Asia plus in‑house production in Mexico) and cites product innovations—especially in the health & wellness category—as margin drivers. Flexsteel expects Q1 revenue growth of 1–4% and an operating margin of 6.5–7%, and targets long-term revenue of $750 million with an operating margin of >=8%, but sees near-term risks from high ocean freight costs and rising tariffs on furniture from Vietnam. » Altro su de.investing.com

Flexsteel Industries reported fiscal 2026 sales of about $459 million and a record adjusted diluted EPS of $4.94, with adjusted operating margin around 7.5%. Fourth-quarter results included a 780-basis-point benefit from tariff refunds and a 70-basis-point hit from exiting the Homestyles ready-to-assemble category, which contributed roughly $12 million in sales. The company repurchased about 1.3 million shares for $62.6 million, increased its dividend by 25% and ended the quarter debt-free with $16.7 million in cash. For fiscal Q1 2027 Flexsteel forecasts sales of $111 million to $115 million and an operating margin of 6.5% to 7%, citing inflation and supply-chain pressures and ongoing cost-mitigation actions. » Altro su finance.yahoo.com
