10-Q filed 2026-05-01 against the comparable filing from 2025-05-06.
“37 International segment income decreased to $19.9 million in the first quarter of 2026 from $23.3 million in the first quarter of 2025, primarily due to higher cost of sales of $27.2 million, higher other selling and administrative expenses of $15.2 million, and higher advertising and promotion expenses of $12.8 million, partially offset by higher net sales of $51.8 million.”
“Sales adjustments as a percentage of net sales increased to 12.7% in the first quarter of 2026, as compared to 11.8% in the first quarter of 2025, primarily due to a higher proportion of sales occurring in regions with higher average sales rates and a shift in sales channel mix resulting in a higher proportion of sales with higher average sales adjustment rates.”
