Sentiment and the balance of points

Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.

How this balance works

Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.

It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.

Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

Filing Explained

The renewed facility provides up to four million dollars in borrowing capacity through October 31, 2027; no amount had been drawn as of filing.

This unaudited quarterly report says TLF’s board made director RSU grants immediately vest on June 9, 2026 and accelerated all previously granted unvested director RSUs. TLF says it issues shares when RSU restrictions lapse, and common shares outstanding rose from 8,072,875 at December 31, 2025 to 8,192,075 at September 30, 2026; issuing shares reduces existing holders’ ownership percentages absent offsets.

At September 30, 2026, the filing says CEO Johan Hedberg’s 900,000 performance- and market-based RSUs vest upon achievement of stated targets.

After quarter-end, TLF renewed its JPMorgan Chase facility through October 31, 2027, with up to $4 million available; it says no funds had been borrowed as of filing, so this is borrowing capacity rather than cash already drawn.

Third-quarter net sales $18.522 million Three months ended September 30, 2026; up 7.3% year over year.

Gross margin percentage financial
"Gross margin percentage for the quarter ended September 30, 2026 increased"
Gross margin percentage shows how much money a company keeps from sales after paying for the direct costs of producing its products or services, expressed as a percentage of total sales. It indicates how efficiently a company turns sales into profit before other expenses are considered. Higher gross margin percentages generally suggest better profitability potential and cost control, making it an important measure for investors assessing a company's financial health.
contract liability financial
"recorded as a contract liability until the points are redeemed or expire"
A contract liability is a legally binding obligation a company has under a contract to deliver goods, services, or a refund in the future in exchange for money or another benefit already received. Investors care because these obligations represent future cash outflows or performance risks—like an IOU on a household chore list—that can reduce available cash, affect earnings reliability, and change how risky or valuable a company’s financial position looks.
treasury stock method financial
"Diluted EPS is computed using the treasury stock method."
A bookkeeping technique used to estimate how many additional shares would exist if all outstanding stock options, warrants and convertible securities were exercised, assuming the company uses the cash received to buy back shares at the current market price. Investors use it to calculate diluted earnings per share and to gauge potential ownership and profit dilution—like figuring out how a pie would be divided if more people claimed slices and some money was used to buy slices back.
incremental borrowing rate financial
"We discount lease payments using our incremental borrowing rate"

TANDY LEATHER FACTORY, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND CERTAIN SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Tandy Leather Factory, Inc. (“TLF,” “we,” “our,” “us,” “the Company,” “Tandy,” or “Tandy Leather” mean Tandy Leather Factory, Inc., together with its subsidiaries) is one of the world’s largest specialty retailers of leather and leathercraft-related items.  Founded in 1919 in Fort Worth, Texas, the Company introduced leathercrafting to millions of American and later Canadian and other international customers and has built a track record as the trusted source of quality leather, tools, hardware, supplies, kits and teaching materials for leatherworkers everywhere.  Today, our mission remains to build on our legacy of inspiring the timeless art and trade of leatherworking.
 
What differentiates Tandy from the competition is our high brand awareness and strong brand equity and loyalty, our network of retail stores that provides convenience, a high-touch customer service experience, a hub for the local leathercrafting community, and our 100+ year heritage.  We believe that this combination of qualities is unique to Tandy and gives the brand competitive advantages that are difficult for others to replicate.
 
We sell our products primarily through company-owned stores, through orders generated from our global websites, and through direct account representatives in our commercial division. We also manufacture leather lace, cut leather pieces and most of the do-it-yourself kits that are sold in our stores and on our websites.  We also offer production services to our business customers such as cutting (“clicking”), splitting, and some assembly.  We maintain our principal offices at 7602 Southwest Loop 820, Benbrook, Texas 76126.
 
The Company currently operates a total of 102 retail stores as of September 30, 2026.  There are 93 stores in the United States (“U.S.”), eight stores in Canada and one store in Spain.  As of September 30, 2026 the Company had temporarily closed one of its Canadian stores for relocation and we anticipate to open this store in Q4 2026.
 
The Company’s common shares currently trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “TLF.”
 
We operate as a single segment and report on a consolidated basis. The Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), which is our CEO, uses both the net sales, cost of goods sold and net operating income to assess the Company’s performance and allocation of resources. All three measures are currently included on the face of our income statement.
 
The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for annual audited financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for Tandy Leather Factory, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly our financial position as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, our results of operations and our cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, and our statements of stockholders’ equity as of and for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with US GAAP requires the use of estimates that affect the reported value of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. These estimates are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for the Company’s conclusions. The Company continually evaluates the information used to make these estimates as the business and the economic environment changes. Actual results may differ from these estimates, and estimates are subject to change due to modifications in the underlying conditions or assumptions. These unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes included in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Significant Accounting Policies

Cash and cash equivalents.  The Company considers investments with a maturity, at time of purchase, of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  All credit card, debit card and electronic transfer transactions pending settlement in less than seven days are classified as cash and cash equivalents.

Foreign currency translation and transactions.  Foreign currency translation adjustments arise from activities of our foreign subsidiaries.  Results of operations are translated into U.S. dollars using the average exchange rates during the period, while assets and liabilities are translated using period-end exchange rates.  Foreign currency translation adjustments of assets and liabilities are recorded in stockholders’ equity and presented net of tax. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency translations are reported in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income under the caption “Foreign currency translation adjustments, net of tax” for all periods presented.

Revenue Recognition.  Our revenue is earned from sales of merchandise and generally occurs via three methods: (1) at the store, (2) via web sales, and (3) sales of product directly to commercial customers. We recognize revenue when we satisfy the performance obligation of transferring control of product merchandise to a customer. At the store, our performance obligation is met and revenue is recognized when a sales transaction occurs with a customer. When merchandise is shipped to a customer, our performance obligation is met, and revenue is recognized when control passes to the customer. Shipping terms are normally free on board (“FOB”) shipping point, and control passes when the merchandise is shipped to the customer. Sales tax and comparable foreign tax are excluded from net sales, while shipping charged to our customers is included in net sales. Net sales are based on the amount of consideration that we expect to receive, reduced by estimates for future merchandise returns.

The sales return allowance is based each year on historical customer return behavior and other known factors and reduces net sales and cost of sales, accordingly. The sales return allowance included in accrued expense and other liabilities was $0.2 million as of September 30, 2026, and $0.2 million as of December 31, 2025, and $0.2 million as of January 1, 2025. The estimated value of merchandise expected to be returned included in other current assets was less than $0.1 million as of September 30, 2026, December 31, 2025, and January 1, 2025, respectively.

We record a gift card liability for the unfulfilled performance obligation on the date we issue a gift card to a customer. We record revenue and reduce the gift card liability as the customer redeems the gift card. In addition, for gift card breakage, we recognize a proportionate amount for the expected unredeemed gift cards over the expected customer redemption period, which is one year. Our gift card liability, included in accrued expenses and other liabilities, was $0.3 million as of September 30, 2026, and $0.4 million as of December 31, 2025, and $0.3 million as of January 1, 2025.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, we recognized $0.2 million respectively in net sales associated with gift cards.   For the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, we recognized $0.1 million respectively in net sales associated with gift cards.

As of July 2026, the Company operates a customer loyalty rewards program in which customers earn points based on qualifying purchases. Points may be redeemed for discounts on future merchandise purchases.

Table of Contents
The loyalty points represent a material right and therefore constitute a separate performance obligation under ASC 606. A portion of the transaction price is allocated to the loyalty points based on their relative standalone selling price and recorded as a contract liability until the points are redeemed or expire.
Points are generally redeemable for discounts equivalent to approximately $0.05 per point.

The Company estimates the standalone selling price of loyalty points by considering the expected redemption value and estimated breakage. The Company currently estimates that some of the  issued points will not be redeemed and recognizes breakage proportionally as points are redeemed.

The estimate of breakage is reviewed quarterly and updated as necessary based on historical redemption patterns and program activity.

The loyalty points contract liability is included in accrued liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2026 is less than $0.1 million.

Disaggregated Revenue.  In the following table, revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 is disaggregated by geographic areas as follows:

Geographic sales information is based on the location of the customer.  As a percentage of our consolidated net sales, excluding Canada, our other international net sales were less than 2.0% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, and 2025, respectively.

Discounts.  We offer seven classes of customer discounts: 1) Retail, 2) Military/First Responder, 3) Business, 4) Commercial, 5) Commercial Pro, 6) Tandy Club (Loyalty Points Program) and 7) Employees. There are no other classes of discounts, and any discounts given will fall into one of these six categories.  Such discounts are not deemed to be variable consideration nor convey a material right to these customers since the discounted pricing they receive in a discount class is not incremental to others within the same class and there is no retrospective impact of such discounts.  As a result, sales are reported after deduction of discounts at the point of sale.  We do not pay slotting fees or make other payments to resellers.

Operating expenses.  Operating expenses include all selling, general and administrative costs, including wages and benefits, rent and occupancy costs, depreciation, advertising, store operating expenses, outbound freight charges (to ship merchandise to customers), and corporate office costs.

Property and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation.  Property and equipment are stated at cost.  Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which are three to ten years for equipment and machinery, seven to fifteen years for furniture and fixtures, five years for vehicles, and forty years for buildings and related improvements.  Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the life of the lease or the useful life of the asset.  Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred but are capitalized if the related cost extends the life of the assets.

Table of Contents
Inventory. Inventory is stated at the lower of first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) cost or net realizable value, and FIFO layers are maintained at the location level. Finished goods held for sale include the cost of merchandise purchases, the costs to bring the merchandise to our Texas distribution center, warehousing and handling expenditures, and distributing and delivering merchandise to our stores.  These costs include depreciation of long-lived assets utilized in acquiring, warehousing and distributing inventory.  Manufacturing inventory including raw materials and work-in-process is valued on a first in, first out basis using full absorption accounting which includes material, labor, and other applicable manufacturing overhead.  Carrying values of inventory are analyzed and, to the extent that the cost of inventory exceeds the net realizable value, provisions are made to reduce the carrying amount of the inventory.

We regularly review all inventory items to determine if there are (i) damaged goods (e.g., for leather, excessive scars or damage from ultra-violet light), (ii) items that need to be removed from our product line (e.g., slow-moving items, inability of a supplier to provide items of acceptable quality or quantity, and to maintain freshness in the product line) and (iii) pricing actions that need to be taken to adequately value our inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value.
Since the determination of net realizable value of inventory involves both estimation and judgment with regard to market values and reasonable costs to sell, differences in these estimates could result in ultimate valuations that differ from the recorded asset.

The majority of inventory purchases and commitments are paid for in U.S. dollars in order to limit the Company’s exposure to foreign currency fluctuations. Goods shipped to us are recorded as inventory owned by us when the risk of loss shifts to us from the supplier.

Inventory is physically counted partially during each quarter and fully at year-end in the Texas distribution center.  At the store level, inventory is partially counted each quarter for high value items and fully at year-end.  Inventory is then adjusted in our accounting system to reflect actual count results.

Leases.  We lease real estate for our principal office (including distribution center), retail store locations and may lease warehouse equipment for our Texas distribution center under long-term lease agreements. We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception and recognize right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities at commencement date based on the present value of the lease payments over the lease term.  We elected not to record leases with an initial term of 12 months or less on the balance sheet for all our asset classes.

For operating leases, the present value of our lease liabilities may include: (1) rental payments adjusted for inflation or market rates, and (2) lease terms with options to renew the lease or options to purchase leased equipment, when it is reasonably certain we will exercise such an option.  The exercise of lease renewal or purchase option is generally at our discretion.  Payments based on a change in an index or market rate are not considered in the determination of lease payments for purposes of measuring the related lease liability.  We discount lease payments using our incremental borrowing rate based on information available as of the measurement date.

11

Table of Contents
We recognize rent expense related to our operating leases assets on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Rent expense is recorded in operating expenses.

The depreciable life of related leasehold improvements is based on the shorter of the useful life or the lease term.  We also perform interim reviews of our lease assets for impairment when evidence exists that the carrying value of an asset group, including a lease asset, may not be recoverable.  None of our lease agreements contain contingent rental payments, material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.  We have no sublease agreements and no lease agreements in which we are named as a lessor.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets.  We evaluate long-lived assets on a quarterly basis to identify events or changes in circumstances (“triggering events”) that indicate the carrying value of certain assets may not be recoverable.  Upon the occurrence of a triggering event, ROU lease assets, property and equipment and definite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment and an impairment loss is recorded in the period in which it is determined that the carrying amount of the assets is not recoverable.  The determination of recoverability is made based upon the estimated undiscounted future net cash flows of assets grouped at the lowest level for which there are identifiable cash flows independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets with such cash flows to be realized over the estimated remaining useful life of the primary asset within the asset group.  The Company determined the lowest level of identifiable cash flows that are independent of other asset groups to be primarily at the individual store level.  If the estimated undiscounted future net cash flows for a given store are less than the carrying amount of the related store assets, an impairment loss is determined by comparing the estimated fair value with the carrying value of the related assets.  The impairment loss is then allocated across the asset group’s major classifications which in this case are operating lease assets and property and equipment.  Triggering events at the store level could include material declines in operational and financial performance or planned changes in the use of assets, such as store relocation or store closure.  This evaluation requires management to make judgements relating to future cash flows, growth rates and economic and market conditions.  The fair value of an asset group is estimated using a discounted cash flow valuation method.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments.  We measure fair value as an exit price, which is the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants.  As a basis for considering such assumptions, accounting standards establish a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:


●
Level 1 – observable inputs that reflect quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.


●
Level 2 – significant observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, such as quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.


●
Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs reflecting our own assumptions, consistent with reasonably available assumptions made by other market participants.

Classification of the financial asset or liability within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Our principal financial instruments held consist of T-Bills as of September 30, 2026, which are cash equivalent, fall under level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the carrying values of our financial instruments included in our Consolidated Balance Sheets approximated their fair values.  There were no transfers into or out of Levels 1, 2 and 3 during the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025.

Table of Contents
Income Taxes.  Income taxes are estimated for each jurisdiction in which we operate.  This involves assessing current tax exposure together with temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items for tax and financial statement accounting purposes.  Any resulting deferred tax assets are evaluated for recoverability based on estimated future taxable income.  To the extent it is more –likely –than not that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recorded.  Our evaluation regarding whether a valuation allowance is required or should be adjusted also considers, among other things, the nature, frequency, and severity of recent losses, forecasts of future profitability and the duration of statutory carryforward periods.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates in effect in the years when those temporary differences are expected to reverse.  The effect on deferred taxes from a change in tax rate is recognized through continuing operations in the period that includes the enactment date of the change.  Changes in tax laws and rates could affect recorded deferred tax assets and liabilities in the future.

A tax benefit from an uncertain tax position may be recognized when it is more-likely-than-not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits. Income tax positions must meet a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold to be recognized.

We recognize tax liabilities for uncertain tax positions and adjust these liabilities when our judgment     changes as a result of the evaluation of new information not previously available.  Due to the complexity of some of these uncertainties, the ultimate resolution may result in a payment that is materially different from the current estimate of the tax liabilities.  These differences will be reflected as increases or decreases to income tax expense and the effective tax rate in the period in which new information becomes available.  We recognize interest and/or penalties related to all tax positions in income tax expense. To the extent that accrued interest and penalties do not ultimately become payable, amounts accrued will be reduced and reflected as a reduction of the overall income tax provision in the period that such determination is made.

We may be subject to periodic audits by the Internal Revenue Service and other taxing authorities.  These audits may challenge certain of our tax positions, such as the timing and amount of deductions and allocation of taxable income to the various jurisdictions.

Stock-based compensation.  The Company’s stock-based compensation relates primarily to restricted stock unit (“RSU”) awards.  Accounting guidance requires measurement and recognition of compensation expense at an amount equal to the grant date fair value.  Compensation expense is recognized for service-based stock awards on a straight-line basis or ratably over the requisite service period, based on the closing price of the Company’s stock on the date of grant.  The service-based awards typically vest ratably over the requisite service period, provided that the participant is employed on the vesting date.  Compensation expense is reduced by actual forfeitures as they occur over the requisite service period of the awards.

Performance-based and market-based RSUs vest, if at all, upon the Company satisfying certain performance and market targets.  The Company records compensation expense for awards with a performance condition when it is probable that the condition will be achieved.  If the Company determines it is not probable a performance condition will be achieved, no compensation expense is recognized.  If the Company changes its assessment in a subsequent period and concludes it is probable a performance condition will be achieved, the Company will recognize compensation expense ratably between the period of the change in assessment through the expected date of satisfying the performance condition for vesting.  If the Company subsequently assesses that it is no longer probable that a performance condition will be achieved, the accumulated expense that has been previously recognized will be reversed.  The compensation expense ultimately recognized, if any, related to performance-based awards will equal the grant date fair value based on the number of shares for which the performance condition has been satisfied.  We issue shares from authorized shares upon the lapsing of vesting restrictions on RSUs.  We do not use cash to settle equity instruments issued under stock-based compensation awards.  The payments of the employees’ tax liability for a portion of the vested shares are generally satisfied by withholding shares with a fair value equal to the tax liability.

The Company also granted a market based award which consist of the Company’s common stock trading on its principal stock market/exchange for 15 consecutive trading days with a daily closing price of $5.50 or more; the Company’s common stock trading on its principal stock market/exchange for 15 consecutive trading days with a daily closing price of $6.50 or more; and the Company’s common stock trading on its principal stock market/exchange for 15 consecutive trading days with a daily closing price of $7.50 or more. The Company determined the grant date fair value based on the authoritative guidance and the expense is recorded over the derived service period.

Accounts Receivable - Trade and Expected Credit Losses.  Our receivables primarily arise from the sale of merchandise to customers that have applied for and been granted credit.  Accounts receivable is stated at amounts due, net of an allowance.  Accounts receivable is generally due within 30 days of invoicing.  We estimate expected credit losses based on factors such as the composition of accounts receivable, the age of the accounts, historical bad debt experience, and our evaluation of the financial condition and past collection history of each customer.  Management believes that the historical loss information it has compiled is a reasonable base on which to determine expected credit losses for trade receivables held at September 30, 2026, because the composition of the trade receivables at that date is consistent with that used in developing the historical credit-loss percentages (i.e., the similar risk characteristics of its customers and its credit practices have not changed significantly over time).  Accordingly, the allowance for expected credit losses at September 30, 2026, December 31, 2025, and January 1, 2025, each totaled less than $0.1 million.

Other Intangible Assets.  Our intangible assets and related accumulated amortization relate to trademarks and copyrights that are definite-lived intangibles and are subject to amortization.  The weighted average amortization period is 15 years for trademarks and copyrights. Amortization expense related to other intangible assets was less than $0.01 million during each of the 3 months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025.  Based on the current amount of intangible assets subject to amortization, we estimate amortization expense to be less than $0.01 million annually over the next five years.

Comprehensive Income.  Comprehensive income includes net income or loss and certain other items that are recorded directly to stockholders’ equity. The Company’s only source of other comprehensive income is foreign currency translation adjustments, and those adjustments are presented net of tax.

2. NOTES PAYABLE AND LONG-TERM DEBT

On January 3, 2023, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.  Under the Credit Agreement, the bank provides the Company a credit facility of up to $5,000,000 on standard terms and conditions, including affirmative and negative covenants set forth in the Credit Agreement.

In the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company renewed the promissory note under its Credit Agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. through October 31, 2026. Under the Credit Agreement, the bank provides the Company a credit facility of up to $4,000,000 on standard terms and conditions, including affirmative and negative covenants set forth in the Credit Agreement.  As security for the credit facility, the Company has pledged, as collateral, certain of its assets, including the Company’s cash in deposit accounts, inventory and equipment.  The interest rate is based on CME term SOFR + 210 basis points, and the credit facility renews annually. As of the date of this filing, no funds had been borrowed under this facility, and we are in compliance with all covenants.

3.  INCOME TAX

Our effective income tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, was 29.5% and 25.1%, respectively. Our effective tax rate differs from the federal statutory rate primarily due to U.S. state income tax expense, expenses that are nondeductible for tax purposes, and any change in our valuation allowance associated with our deferred tax assets, and differences in tax rates in foreign jurisdictions.

4.  STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Tandy Leather Factory, Inc. 2023 Incentive Stock Plan (the “2023 Plan” and, together with the 2013 Plan, the “Plans”) was adopted by our Board of Directors in April 2023 and approved by our stockholders in June 2023.  The 2023 Plan initially reserved up to 800,000 shares of our common stock for a variety of equity awards (including, but not limited to, RSUs, the only type of awards that have been granted to date) to our executive officers, non-employee directors and other key employees.    In June 2026 and 2025, the Company granted 24,140 and 17,344 shares respectively to various members of the Board of Directors under the 2023 Plan.

The Board adopted a new compensation policy at its June 2026 meeting for its Directors. This policy consists of immediate vesting of annual RSU grants. Consequently, the 24,140 RSUs granted to board members on June 9, 2026 immediately vested. Further the Board determined, all RSUs previously granted with unvested units would accelerate and immediately vest on June 9, 2026 to align with this new compensation policy. The previous vesting period was four years. The Company recorded the expense in Q2 2026 according to the appropriate guidance.

In February 2025, in connection with hiring Johan Hedberg as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, the Company granted Mr. Hedberg 100,000 RSUs, which vested in February 2026, and 900,000 RSUs, which will vest upon the Company’s achievement of certain performance and market targets.  In June 2025, the Company’s stockholders approved an increase to the plan reserve of an additional 900,000 shares of our common stock for the potential vesting of those performance-based and market based RSU grants to Mr. Hedberg.

A summary of the activity for RSU awards as of September 30, 2026 is presented below:

The Company’s stock-based compensation relates primarily to RSU awards. For these service-based awards, our stock-based compensation expense, included in operating expenses, was $0.1 million and $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025, and $0.2 million and $0.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025.
respectively.

We issue shares from authorized shares upon the lapsing of vesting restrictions on restricted stock and RSUs.  . We do not use cash to settle equity instruments issued under stock-based compensation awards. The payment of the employees’ tax liability for a portion of the vested shares may be satisfied by withholding shares with a fair value equal to the tax liability.

5.  EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) are computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted EPS includes additional common shares that would have been outstanding if potential common shares with a dilutive effect, such as stock awards from the Company’s restricted stock plan, had been issued.  Anti-dilutive securities represent potentially dilutive securities which are excluded from the computation of diluted EPS as their impact would be anti-dilutive.  Diluted EPS is computed using the treasury stock method.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted EPS for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025:

6.  CASH DIVIDEND

On February 2, 2026, our Board of Directors authorized a $0.75 per share special one-time cash dividend that was paid to our stockholders of record at the close of business on February 9, 2026. The dividend of approximately $6.1 million, was paid to our stockholders on February 24, 2026.

On January 24, 2025, our Board of Directors authorized a $1.50 per share special one-time cash dividend that was paid to our stockholders of record at the close of business on February 3, 2025. The dividend of approximately $12.7 million, was paid to our stockholders on February 18, 2025.

Our Board will determine future cash dividends after giving consideration to our existing levels of profit and cash flow, capital requirements, current and forecasted liquidity, as well as financial and other business conditions existing at the time.

7.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Proceedings

We are periodically involved in litigation that arises in the ordinary course of business and operations.  There are no such matters pending that we expect to have a material impact on our financial position or operating results.  Legal costs associated with the resolution of claims, lawsuits and other contingencies are expensed as incurred.

8.  SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM AND SHARE REPURCHASES

On September 15, 2026, the Board of Directors renewed the stock repurchase plan and the Company was authorized to repurchase up to $5 million (at then-current market value) of the Company’s common stock in open-market transactions at prevailing market prices upon periodic instructions from the Board or an authorized sub-committee of the Board until September 30, 2028. As of September 30, 2026, $5.0 million remained available for repurchase under this new program.

On June 17, 2025, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement with Janet Carr, our former Chief Executive Officer; wherein the Company agreed to purchase 430,987 shares from Ms. Carr at $3.00 per share, for a total of $1,292,691. The transaction was completed on July 18, 2025; accordingly, the Company immediately cancelled the shares and the impact of this transaction was reflected in our cash balance, common shares and additional paid-in-capital in our financial statements as of the quarter of the transaction.

9.  SALES OF CORPORATE HEADQUARTERS

The Company concluded the sale of our corporate headquarters, and the net proceeds of the sale are recorded on the face of our Condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income as Gain on disposal of Headquarters.

Table of Contents
On January 22, 2025, the Company finalized the sale of its corporate headquarters and distribution facilities in Fort Worth, Texas for net proceeds of $24.9 million after deduction of commission and relevant closing fees. The total net book value disposed was $8.7 million, resulting in a gain of $16.2 million as the result of the sale, and this is included in ‘Other income’ on the face of our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. The Company has elected to include all one-time move expenses in ‘Other income’ as management deems these are not part of our normal operations.

During the third quarter of 2025, the Company identified and corrected an immaterial error related to the accounting for the sale of property and land completed earlier in the year. The error resulted from assets associated with the sale that was initially not included in the gain calculation in the amount of approximately $1.4 million pre-tax.  As a result, the gain on sale and total assets were overstated in the first and second quarters of 2025. The correction did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025.

Net income and earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was overstated by $1.1 million net of tax and $0.11 per share basic, and $0.12 per share diluted. Net income for the six month period ended June 30, 2025 was overstated by $1.1 million net of tax and $0.13 cents per share for basic and diluted. This correction does not affect any metric used in management compensation or any of our Company’s normal operations as this was a one-time unusual transaction. The transaction is not a part of the Company operating activities.

On January 28, 2025, the Company signed a 10-year lease for new corporate headquarters and distribution facilities in Benbrook, Texas that became effective on July 1, 2025, and the Company has the ability to renew the lease for an additional 10 years at market rate. We also signed a short-term lease through September 1, 2025 for our former facility that was evaluated as a sale leaseback. Due to the short-term nature of the lease, it was not recorded under ASC 842, in accordance with our policy of not recording short-term leases.

10.          SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent to September 30, 2026, the Company renewed the promissory note under its Credit Agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. through October 31, 2027.

Under the Credit Agreement, the bank provides the Company a credit facility of up to $4,000,000 on standard terms and conditions, including affirmative and negative covenants set forth in the Credit Agreement.  As security for the credit facility, the Company has pledged, as collateral, certain of its assets, including the Company’s cash in deposit accounts, inventory and equipment.  The interest rate is based on CME term SOFR + 210 basis points, and the credit facility renews annually. As of the date of this filing, no funds had been borrowed under this facility, and we are in compliance with all covenants.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The Business and Strategy

Tandy Leather Factory, Inc. is one of the world’s largest specialty retailers of leather and leathercraft-related items. Founded in 1919 in Fort Worth, Texas, and organized in 2005 as a Delaware corporation, the Company introduced leathercrafting to millions of American and later Canadian and other international customers and has built a track record as the trusted source of quality leather, tools, hardware, supplies, kits and teaching materials for leatherworkers everywhere.  Today, our mission remains to build on our legacy of inspiring the timeless art and trade of leatherworking.
 
What differentiates Tandy from the competition is our high brand awareness and strong brand equity and loyalty, our network of retail stores that provides convenience, a high-touch customer service experience, and a hub for the local leathercrafting community, and our 100+-year heritage. We believe that this combination of qualities is unique to Tandy and gives the brand competitive advantages that are difficult for others to replicate.
 
We sell our products primarily through company-owned stores and through orders generated from our global websites, and through direct account representatives in our commercial division.  We also manufacture leather lace, cut leather pieces and most of the do-it-yourself kits that are sold in our stores and on our websites.  We also offer production services to our business customers such as cutting (“clicking”), splitting, and some assembly. We maintain our principal offices at 7602 S.W. Loop 820, Benbrook, Texas 76126.
 
Currently, the Company operates a total of 102 retail stores. There are 93 stores in the United States (“U.S,”), eight stores in Canada and one store in Spain.  As of September 30, 2026, the Company had temporarily closed one of its Canadian stores for relocation and we anticipate to open this store in Q4 2026.
 
Tandy Leather has been introducing people to leatherworking for over 100 years.  Our stores have been and continue to be our competitive advantage: where our customers learn the craft in classes, open table, and from the expertise of our store staff, where they can touch, feel and test the product, and where they can connect and commune with others passionate about leather.  Our websites provide inspiration, detailed product descriptions and specifications, educational information and videos, and a convenient place to also purchase products – especially for those who are far from our retail stores, including a growing international customer base.  For many of our retail and web customers, leatherworking evolves from a passion to a trade.  Our Commercial Division is tailored to the needs of those customers who build businesses around leather.  With dedicated direct account representatives, a direct-from-our-warehouse shipping model, bulk and volume-based competitive pricing, customized product development, and production and pre-production services, we are providing choices for long-term, strategic relationships with our largest customers.
 
We continue to focus on improving our financial sustainability and profitability.  In the short term, we are managing operating expenses and gross margin to deliver free operating cash and operating income even in the face of possible continued economic headwinds.  We will also continue to selectively invest in profitable sales growth where it makes sense, but rebuilding a durable, profitable business model is the highest priority.

Net Sales

Consolidated net sales for the quarter ended September 30, 2026 increased by $1.3 million or a 7.3% increase compared to the same period in the prior year period. We believe the increase was mainly due to our sales campaign and improved allocation of the correct product mix in our stores during those sales periods and better execution in stores and in our E-Com channels. The improved sales is also due in part to closure of our distribution operations for at least six weeks during the third quarter of 2025 due to the relocation of our corporate offices. We also saw marginal improvement in our non-traditional sales such as classes and other community engagements.

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the quarter increased by $1.4 million, or 13.6%, compared to the same period in 2025. Gross margin percentage for the quarter ended September 30, 2026 increased 350 basis points compared to the prior-year quarter, primarily driven by sales growth, pricing changes, and tariff refunds received in the quarter which represented about 270 basis points of the 350 basis points of the margin improvement. The Company’s estimates of overhead allocation and the timing of inventory receipts may also have a temporary impact on gross margin percentage fluctuations from quarter to quarter.

Operating expenses

Operating expenses for the quarter increased by $0.1 million or 1.4% compared to the corresponding prior year period, primarily as a result of an increase in employee benefits compared to prior year of $0.1 million, an increase in salaries of $0.1 million, an increase in selling expenses of $0.1 million, an increase of depreciation of $0.1 million; offset by a reduction in property tax of $0.1 million, and a reduction of rent of $0.2 million.

Income Taxes

Our effective income tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025 was 17.7% and 26.2%, respectively. Our effective tax rate differs from the federal statutory rate primarily due to U.S. state income tax expense, expenses that are non-deductible for tax purposes, and any change in estimates in our valuation allowance associated with our deferred tax assets.

Net Sales

Consolidated net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 increased $2.1 million, or 4.0%, compared to the corresponding prior year period. We believe the increase was mainly due to our sales campaign and improved allocation of the correct product mix in our stores during those sales periods. The improved sales is also due in part to closure of our distribution operations for at least six weeks during the third quarter last year due to the relocation of our corporate offices. We also saw improvement in our non-traditional sales such as classes and other community engagements and Web sales.

Gross Profit

Gross profit increased by $3.8 million, or 12.0%, compared to the same period in 2025, and our gross margin percentage for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, increased year over year by 450 basis points, of which approximately 100 basis points  is due to tariff refunds received in the third quarter of 2026, which we do not expect to recur. The margin improvement for the nine months ending September 30, 2026 is primarily driven by pricing changes, slightly offset by promotional discounts for the same period compared to prior year. The Company’s estimates of overhead allocation and the timing of inventory receipts may also have a temporary impact on gross margin percentage fluctuations from quarter to quarter.

Operating expenses

Operating expenses increased $1.9 million or 6.2% compared to the corresponding prior year period, primarily as a result of an increase in employment cost of $0.8 million, occupancy costs by $0.6 million, an increase in depreciation of $0.2 million, an increase in credit card fees of $0.2 million, an increase of $0.1 million in software expense, an increase in legal expense of $0.1 million; partially offset by a decrease in freight to customer of $0.1 million.

Income Taxes

Our effective income tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025 was 29.5% and 25.1% respectively and are primarily due to improvement in our projected taxable income in 2026 and the recognition of tax benefits on the sales of our corporate property in 2025, partially offset by forecasted income taxes loss projected due to our 2025 operation and certain foreign and state jurisdictions obligation in which we operate. Our effective tax rate differs from the federal statutory rate primarily due to U.S. state income tax expense, expenses that are nondeductible for tax purposes, and the change in our valuation allowance associated with our deferred tax assets.

Capital Resources, Liquidity and Financial Condition

We require cash principally for day-to-day operations, to purchase inventory and to finance capital investments.  We expect to fund our operating and liquidity needs primarily from a combination of current cash balances and cash generated from operating activities.  Any excess cash will be invested as determined by our Board of Directors in accordance with its approved investment policy.  Our cash balances as of September 30, 2026, totaled $5.7 million.

On January 3, 2023, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.  Under the Credit Agreement, the bank provides the Company a credit facility of up to $5,000,000 on standard terms and conditions, including affirmative and negative covenants set forth in the Credit Agreement.

In the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company renewed the promissory note under its Credit Agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. through October 31, 2026. Under the Credit Agreement, the bank provides the Company a credit facility of up to $4,000,000 on standard terms and conditions, including affirmative and negative covenants set forth in the Credit Agreement.  As security for the credit facility, the Company has pledged, as collateral, certain of its assets, including the Company’s cash in deposit accounts, inventory and equipment.  The interest rate is based on CME term SOFR + 210 basis points, and the credit facility renews annually.

Share Repurchase Program and Share Repurchase

On September 15, 2026, the Board of Directors approved the renewal of the stock plan and the Company shall be authorized to repurchase up to $5 million (at then-current market value) of the Company’s common stock in open-market transactions at prevailing market prices upon periodic instructions from the Board or an authorized sub-committee of the Board until September 30, 2028.  As of September 30, 2026, $5.0 million remained available for repurchase under this new program.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, cash used in operations was $2.8 million, driven by net income from operations of $1.1 million, non-cash expense of $5.1 million, including depreciation, amortization, and stock-based compensation; offset by an increase in inventory of $4.5 million, a decrease in operating lease liabilities of $3.7 million, a decrease in accrued expenses of $0.3 million, an increase in prepaid expenses of $0.2 million, an increase in tax payments of $0.2 million, and a decrease in accounts payable trade of $0.1 million. Cash used in investing activities was $1.4 million mainly for purchases of property and equipment for new stores and investment in software for our new loyalty program. Cash used in financing activities was $6.2 million, primarily for dividend payments and withheld shares used as taxes at vesting for the employees. These activities, together with the effect of exchange rate changes of less than  $0.1 million, resulted in a net decrease in cash of $10.4 million.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, cash used in operations was $5.5 million, driven by a net loss from operations of $0.4 million, non-cash expense of $0.9 million, including depreciation, amortization, and stock-based compensation, an increase in inventory of $0.2 million, an increase in prepaid expenses of $0.2 million, a decrease in accounts payable of $0.8 million, a reduction in accrued expense and other liabilities of $0.9 million, an increase in other assets of $0.2 million, and a decrease in operating lease liabilities of $3.7 million. Cash provided by investing activities was $18.3 million, which included net proceeds from the sale of our corporate headquarters of $24.9 million, partially offset by purchases of property and equipment of $6.6 million. Cash used in financing activities was $14.2 million, primarily for dividend payments. These activities, together with the effect of exchange rate changes of $0.2 million, resulted in a net decrease in cash of $1.3 million.

Our management team, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (who serves as our principal executive officer and principal financial officer), evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of the last day of the fiscal period covered by this report, September 30, 2026. The term disclosure controls and procedures means our controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, concluded that, as of September 30, 2026, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level.

Item 1A.
Risk Factors.

Our Risk Factors are discussed fully in Part I Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, and incorporated herein by reference.  In addition, we have identified the following additional risk factors:

Recent Changes to U.S. Tariff Rates.  The products we sell are primarily purchased from third parties across multiple countries, most notably China, Mexico and Brazil.  In February 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (“IEEPA”) were not authorized, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection subsequently established a process for importers to request refunds of IEEPA tariffs previously paid. The Company has submitted refund requests under this process. These refunds are non-recurring, and the timing and amount of any further refunds are uncertain and remain subject to ongoing legal and administrative proceedings.  We continue to focus on opportunities to mitigate negative impacts and increase efficiencies and scale within our supply chain.  However, significant increases in tariff rates, particularly for products imported mainly from China and Brazil, would substantially increase our cost for those products and may require us to increase our prices to customers , which could in turn lead to a decrease in our sales.  Even if we are able to avoid raising the prices of our own products, the macro-economic inflationary impact of tariffs  on other products  could also harm our sales by reducing our customers’ ability to make discretionary purchases of items such as our products.  We may also be exposed to retaliatory tariffs implications for our intercompany sales to Canadian stores if implemented. The global tariff environment is changing rapidly, and we cannot be assured that we will not be materially negatively impacted by these changes .

Increased Expenses from Renting Headquarters Facilities and Flagship Store.  Until January 2025, the Company owned the buildings housing its principal offices, distribution center and flagship retail store in Fort Worth, Texas.  Since the sale of those buildings in January 2025, the Company has leased spaces for all of these facilities.  Excluding buildout, furniture, equipment and other costs associated with the move to the new facilities, the Company expects to pay combined rent for new headquarters and flagship store facilities in excess of $1.6 million per year (adjusted for inflation annually over the term).  If the Company is unable to generate additional sales and profits to offset these added expenses, this could have a material adverse effect on the Company and its operations.
