Our operations are classified into two business segments: bedding and upholstery.
On April 24, 2025, the company announced a strategic transformation of its operating model to combine certain activities within the bedding and upholstery segments and create one integrated Culp-branded business. This strategic transformation was completed by the end of fiscal 2026.

Risk factors
Text removed vs the prior filing · source: 10-Q · 2026-03-13
Our business may be adversely affected by increased tariffs or other changes in U.S. trade policy related to imported products.
Many of our products are manufactured or sourced outside of the U.S. Since early 2025, the U.S. government has imposed tariffs on imports from various countries, including China, where a significant amount of our products is manufactured. Many of these tariffs were imposed pursuant to the Internatio…
These tariff actions compelled us to raise prices on our products and, as a result, our sales and gross margins on certain products are likely to be impacted. Moreover, the current tariff and trade regulatory environment is unpredictable, making it difficult to for us, and for our customers, to mana…
Following the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision finding tariffs under IEEPA to be unlawful, we filed a claim with U.S. Court of International Trade seeking a refund for the amounts we paid pursuant to IEEPA tariffs. However, the availability, timing, and amount of any related refunds associated with pay…
In addition to tariffs, the U.S. government has considered, and is expected to continue to consider, other proposals for substantial changes to its trade and tax policies, which could include import restrictions, changes to or withdrawal from existing trade agreements, and border-adjustment taxes, a…

How to read Risk Factors (Item 1A) in a 10-Q
A 10-Q risk-factor section usually takes one of three forms; this page classifies it as one of:
- Pointer — the filer states there have been no material changes and points back to the annual 10-K risk factors; there is no own risk text to compare this quarter.
- Partial update — the filer carves out specific updated risks ("except as set forth below"); the excerpts show exactly what is new this quarter.
- Restated in full — the quarter carries the complete risk-factor text. When the prior quarter was only a pointer there is no prior full text to diff against, so the page flags the section as restated instead.
This describes the filing structure only — it is never a judgement on whether risk went up or down.
