In the fourth-quarter, Vera repurchased approximately $0.6 million of its shares under the 2021 share repurchase program that expired in December 2024. The Board of Directors has approved an additional $30.0 million repurchase authorization, which commenced December 14, 2024, and expires December 2027.&nbsp;&nbsp;
&#8220;The fourth quarter remained challenging as we continued to navigate the early stages of Project Restoration, our comprehensive strategic initiative to transform our business model and brand positioning,&#8221; said CEO Jackie Ardrey.
&#8220;Separately, in order to further focus our efforts on Vera Bradley&#8217;s long term transformation, yesterday we signed an interest purchase agreement to sell all of the ownership interests of the Pura Vida business. This sale of Pura Vida represents a significant step in our strategic evolution.&#8221;
Pura Vida segment revenues totaled&nbsp;$13.6 million, a&nbsp;43.8%&nbsp;decrease from&nbsp;the prior year&nbsp;fourth quarter, driven by decreased ecommerce and wholesale sales.
&#8220;Finally, as part of our planned Board transition, Barbara Bradley Baekgaard, the co-founder of Vera Bradley, is stepping down from the Board and will not be standing for re-election,&#8221; concluded Ardrey.
Outlook: Vera Bradley sees FY26 revenue of $280 million versus net revenues of $318.8 million in fiscal 2025, excluding the Pura Vida segment. The analyst consensus estimate stands at $398.545 million.
The company anticipates FY26 loss per share of $0.15 versus the EPS estimate of $0.10.
Vera sees net capital spending of approximately $4 million and end of year <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" rel="noreferrer noopener">cash balance of about $40 million.</a>
