Lifetime Brands, Inc. is a global leader in designing, developing, and marketing a wide array of branded consumer products for the home, operating primarily in the kitchenware and home solutions sector. The company is recognized for its diverse portfolio of well-known brands and its commitment to providing quality products to consumers worldwide.
In its third-quarter earnings report for 2025, Lifetime Brands highlighted its strategic initiatives and financial performance amidst challenging market conditions. Despite a decrease in net sales, the company emphasized its effective cost management and the progress of Project Concord, which aims to enhance operational efficiency and market positioning.
The financial results for the third quarter of 2025 showed a 6.5% decline in consolidated net sales compared to the same period in 2024, amounting to $171.9 million. Gross margin also decreased to 35.1% from 36.7% in the previous year. However, the company managed to reduce its selling, general, and administrative expenses by 8.5%, reflecting strong cost control measures. Despite these efforts, the company reported a net loss of $1.2 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, compared to a net income of $0.3 million in the third quarter of 2024.
Lifetime Brands is navigating a volatile tariff environment and industry dislocation, which have impacted its financial performance. The company is leveraging its tariff-mitigation strategy and exploring merger and acquisition opportunities to strengthen its market share. The goodwill impairment charge of $33.2 million significantly affected the nine-month financial results, resulting in a net loss of $45.1 million.
Looking ahead, Lifetime Brands remains focused on advancing Project Concord and exploring strategic opportunities to enhance its competitive positioning. While the company refrains from providing formal financial guidance due to ongoing market uncertainties, management is optimistic about achieving stronger performance and growth momentum as market conditions stabilize.
