This page shows its income statement, balance sheet, cash flow statement, and key financial ratios.

Margin recovery without cash recovery leaves a shrinking asset base increasingly dependent on financing.
Gross margin recovered from24.0% in FY2022 to27.6% in FY2024 even as revenue fell to$441M , but operating margin remained negative at-3.2% . That combination suggests improved merchandise economics are not yet sufficient to absorb overhead and financing costs, rather than a simple volume problem.

Kirklands has an operating margin of -3.2%, meaning the company loses $3 on every $100 of revenue. This results in a profitability score of 24/100. This is up from -5.2% the prior year.
Kirklands's revenue declined 5.8% year-over-year, from $468.7M to $441.4M. This contraction results in a growth score of 14/100.
Kirklands's current ratio of 0.60 is below the typical benchmark, resulting in a score of 6/100. This tight liquidity could limit financial flexibility if cash inflows slow.
