Albert Carey, Executive Chairman at Unifi, spoke during the company's Q4 fiscal 2026 earnings call. He stated that the company is seeing progress in its efforts to reposition itself for long-term sustainable growth, an effort that began approximately 18 months ago. Carey outlined a three-step transformation plan, the first of which was to significantly reduce costs, and noted that the company is starting the new fiscal year on solid footing. Regarding business segments, Carey said the company expects its Brazil segment to see improved sales and profitability year-over-year, leveraging its competitive position and supply chain. He described the Asia segment as the most challenged in terms of revenues but anticipated improved volumes of new innovations as the fiscal year progresses. In the Americas, he expects the broader market environment to remain challenging but said the focus is on driving growth in margin-accretive revenues from value-added products and beyond-apparel initiatives. Carey also noted that brands are quietly working toward more circular solutions and have not backed off their sustainability targets, with the company's REPREVE brand being 100% recycled. He expressed confidence in the growth of the company's circular offerings, including REPREVE Thermal Loop insulation.
