Financial Reporting Analyst

Earnings release furnished with use of non-GAAP measures; no performance details given here, so impact assessment remains neutral and procedural.

Build-A-Bear Workshop, Inc. furnished an earnings press release for the fiscal quarter ended November 1, 2025 under Form 8-K Item 2.02. The filing itself provides no revenue, profit, or cash flow figures, but signals a standard quarterly financial communication, with the detailed numbers and discussion contained in Exhibit 99.1.

The company highlights that it uses non-GAAP financial measures alongside GAAP results to present its performance. Management states these measures are intended to clarify underlying business trends by excluding certain items from GAAP results. The filing also clarifies that these non-GAAP metrics are a supplement, not a replacement, for GAAP figures, which aligns with common SEC expectations.

The 8-K characterizes the information as "furnished" rather than "filed," which limits potential liability under Section 18 of the Exchange Act. It also includes a standard forward-looking statements disclaimer, stressing that projections and goals involve risks and uncertainties and may differ from actual results. A practical focal point is the detailed press release dated December 4, 2025, which contains the actual quarterly metrics and any outlook comments and will be most relevant for assessing performance over the coming quarter.

* * * * *

The Company reports its financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). In the press release furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto, the Company has supplemented the reporting of its financial information determined in accordance with GAAP with certain non-GAAP financial measures. These results are included as a complement to results provided in accordance with GAAP because management believes these non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in the Company’s business and provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of the Company’s core operating results. These measures should not be considered as a substitute for or superior to GAAP results.         

The information furnished in, contained, or incorporated by reference into Item 2.02 above, including Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto, is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”), as amended, or the Exchange Act, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing. In addition, this report (including Exhibit 99.1) shall not be deemed an admission as to the materiality of any information contained herein that is required to be disclosed solely as a requirement of Item 2.02.

This Current Report on Form 8-K and the press release attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 contain certain statements that may be deemed to be “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. All statements in this report and in such exhibit not dealing with historical results are forward-looking and are based on various assumptions. The forward-looking statements in this report and in such exhibit are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by the statements. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements include, among other things: statements regarding the Company’s goals, intentions, and expectations; business plans and growth strategies; estimates of the Company’s risks and future costs and benefits; forecasted demographic and economic trends relating to the Company’s industry; and other risk factors referred to from time to time in filings made by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Forward-looking statements speak only as to the date they are made. The Company does not undertake to update forward-looking statements to reflect circumstances or events that occur after the date the forward-looking statements are made.
