Before we begin, I would like to remind listeners of the cautionary language regarding forward-looking statements contained in the press release. That same language applies to comments made in today's conference call. I will now turn the call over to Olivia. Thank you, Craig. Good morning, everyone. Thank you for joining us for our third quarter fiscal year 2023 conference call. As we noted in our press release that went out this morning, the ongoing macroeconomic challenges related to inflation continued to impact our consumer demand, which was, in general, worse than expected during our third quarter. We also continue to experience lower replenishment orders for some items for which retailers still have excess inventory. In spite of these challenges, our balance sheet remains strong. We believe we're well-positioned to withstand the current headwinds and take advantage of future growth opportunities when the markets return to more normal conditions. I'm gonna look at the third quarter results at a high level. Then I'm gonna turn over the call to Craig as he'll go into a little more detail. Third quarter net sales were $19 million, down from $22.7 million last year. Year-to-date net sales were $53.4 million, down from $61.7 million last year. Multiple forces in the marketplace have contributed to the sales decline. After experiencing empty shelves during the 2021 holiday season due to port issues, retailers responded by building up their inventory levels during the first calendar quarter of 2022, resulting in over-inventory situation by late spring. This situation has been exacerbated by a change in consumer buying patterns, whereby many consumers are now trading down to lower priced items, buying fewer items, or foregoing some items altogether due to inflationary concerns. In response, many retailers have lowered their in-stock levels. At retailers where we can see data on sell-through to consumers, in many cases, replenishment orders aren't keeping up with sell-through. It is important to note that our retail partnerships remain strong and we continue to place new items. Third quarter net income was $1.3 million or $0.13 per diluted share, compared with $2.4 million or $0.24 per diluted share last year. Year-to-date net income was $4.8 million or $0.48 per diluted share, compared with $7.5 million last year or $0.74 per diluted share. Prior year-to-date net income included an almost $2 million gain of forgiveness of our Paycheck Protection Program loan and a $797,000 loss related to Carousel Designs. Excluding the impact of the loan forgiveness in Carousel Designs, prior year-to-date net income would have been $6.3 million or $0.63 per diluted share. We finished the quarter with $3.1 million in cash and no borrowings on our revolving line of credit. Although our inventory remains a little high at $25.8 million at the end of the quarter, compared with $24.5 million at the end of December 2021, we were able to reduce our inventory levels during the third quarter, a period in which we typically see an increase in inventory as we approach Chinese New Year. We continue to be diligent in managing inventory, the majority of which is current inline products. In order to move some inventory to make room for new programs, we have provided higher than normal discounts to retailers in some cases, and we've also taken some reserves on inventory that we intend to sell to closeout customers. We believe that our inventory will return to close to normal levels over the next couple of quarters. We also announced that our board of directors declared an $0.08 per share cash dividend on the company's common stock that will be paid on April 7, 2023 to shareholders of record at the close of business on March 17, 2023. This represents an annualized yield of 5.4% based on yesterday's closing price. We're very pleased that our balance sheet remains strong, and we can continue our commitment to return long-term value to our stockholders. We remain excited about our long-term opportunities as we move forward with our strategic plan, which includes expanding in the toy category, growing our product offerings both organically and through acquisition, increasing our direct-to-consumer sales, reducing operating costs, and making further investments to enhance our technology and improve our organizational structure. The same time, we're managing our business to maximize profitability in the face of current challenges. Now I'll turn the call over to Craig Demarest. Thanks, Olivia. I'll only give financial highlights for a more detailed analysis. I'll refer you to the company's Form 10-Q filed with the SEC this morning. As Olivia mentioned, net sales were $19 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2023, compared with $22.7 million for the third quarter of the prior year, a decrease of $3.7 million or 16.4%. Sales of bedding, blankets, and accessories decreased by $2.8 million, while sales of bibs, toys, and disposable products decreased by $963,000. Sales declined in part due to sales to a struggling retail customer that were approximately $600,000 lower in the current year quarter. We're also seeing the effect of current macroeconomic conditions, more so in the current quarter than in prior quarters and as consumers diverted their discretionary spending to holiday purchases. Net sales decreased to $53.4 million for the first 9 months of fiscal 2023, compared with $61.7 million for the same period in the prior year, a decrease of $8.2 million or 13.4%. Sales of bedding, blankets, and accessories decreased by $6.8 million, and sales of bibs, toys, and disposable products decreased by $1.4 million. The decreases in sales are primarily due to lower replenishment orders at retailers as the company's customers continue to reduce purchases because their inventories increased, which we believe resulted from customers' excess inventory purchases during the first quarter of calendar '22 and consumers' response to macroeconomic conditions. Gross profit decreased by $1.7 million and decreased from 27.1% of net sales for the prior year quarter to 23.7% of net sales for the current year quarter. Gross profit decreased by $1.8 million, but increased from 27.4% of the net sales for the prior year nine-month period to 28.3% of net sales for the same period in the current year. The decrease in the gross profit amount is associated with the decline in sales during the periods and is net of the positive impact of the closure of Carousel, which in the prior year nine-month period recognized a gross loss of $689,000 as a result of the closure of the business in the first quarter of fiscal 2022. Although the gross profit in the prior year 9 month period was impacted by increases in costs across the entire supply chain, the company in the current year has realized some stabilization in its input costs. Finally, the company has benefited from recent increases in the selling prices of our products. Marketing and administrative expenses decreased by $352,000, but increased from 13.6% of net sales for the prior year quarter to 14.4% of net sales for the current year quarter. Marketing and administrative expenses decreased by $733,000, but increased from 15.6% of net sales for the prior year 9 month period to 16.6% of net sales for the same period in the current year. The prior year 9 month period included $496,000 of charges incurred by Carousel. Other items in the prior year 9 month period include a just under $2 million gain recognized from the forgiveness of the PPP loan. The current year-to-date provision for income taxes is based upon an estimated annual effective tax rate from continuing operations of 23.3%, as compared with an estimated annual effective tax rate from continuing operations of 20% for the prior year. The gain on extinguishment of debt associated with the forgiveness of the PPP loan was permitted to be excluded from taxable income, the effect of which lowered the effective tax rate for the prior year period by approximately 4 percentage points. During both the current and prior year quarters, the company recorded discrete reserves for unrecognized tax liabilities, as well as adjustments to income tax expense associated with excess tax benefits or shortfalls arising from the vesting of non-vested stock and the exercise of stock options. The effective tax rate from continuing operations, combined with the effect of the discrete income tax items, resulted in an overall provision for income taxes of 24.4% for the current year nine-month period and 19.4% for the comparable prior year period. Net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2023 was $1.3 million or $0.13 per diluted share, compared to net income of $2.4 million or $0.24 per diluted share for the third quarter of fiscal 2022. Net income for the first 9 months of fiscal 2023 was $4.8 million or $0.48 per diluted share, compared to net income of $7.5 million or $0.74 per diluted share for the same period in fiscal 2022. With that, I will turn the call back to Olivia. Thank you, Craig. Jason will now open up the line for questions. Thank you. We will now begin the question-and-answer session. To ask a question, you may press Star then 1 on your touchtone phone. If you're using a speakerphone, please pick up your handset before pressing the keys. To withdraw your question, please press Star then 2. At this time, we will pause momentarily to assemble our roster. If you have a question, please press Star then 1. Our first question comes from Michael Bernstein from Laurelcrest Capital. Please go ahead. Olivia, good morning. Morning. How are you? Good. How are you? How much are you I noticed you said sales were down $600,000 with one customer. That's probably buybuy BABY. Are you getting credit coverage with that customer now? We are not. Do you have. We're no longer shipping them. You're not shipping them. Do you have any exposure? We do have a little bit of exposure. It's not very much, but we have some. How much business did you do with them the prior year? They were about 2% of our business. To 2%? 2%. I'm sorry. Did you say two or three? I'm sorry, I couldn't hear you. Somewhere about 2%. 2%-3%. Yes. Okay. Thank you very much. You're welcome. Our next question comes from John Deysher from Pinnacle. Please go ahead. Good morning. Just a quick question in terms of shelf space here. It sounds like you're making a lot of accommodations to your customers. I just wanna confirm that you feel those accommodations are allowing you to maintain your shelf space. We do. I mean, you know, as anything goes, you lose a peg, you gain a peg. Overall, our shelf space remains very strong. You know, I think the biggest problem is that the customers aren't reordering to the same levels as the consumers are buying. Okay, it's more of a macro, headwind than you losing shelf space, as the reason for the sales decline? Correct. Okay. Okay. Regarding the buybuy BABY exposure, can you give us an idea of what the dollar amount is? It's less than a quarter of a million dollars. Less than a quarter of a million. Okay. All right. Very good. Are any of your other customers in any kind of distressed situation like that? Not that we're aware of. I mean, everybody else, we continue to ship and continue to get the credit coverage. Okay, no difficulty collecting receivables? No. Okay, great. Thank you very much. Thank you. If you have a question, please press Star then 1. There are no more questions in the queue. This concludes our question and answer session. I would like to turn the conference back over to Olivia Elliott for any closing remarks. Thank you. Thank you everyone for your continued support and interest in the company. A special thanks to all of our employees, suppliers, and customers. We look forward to talking to you again in June when we re-release our fourth quarter and fiscal year 2023 results. Thank you. Conference has now concluded.
