The impact of Unifi ‘s cost-cutting measures were evident in the company’s Q3 earnings . The maker of the branded recycled performance fiber Repreve reported lower year-over-year net sales in the third fiscal quarter of 2026, though the company posted an increase in gross profit compared with the same period last year. The North Carolina-based recycled textile manufacturer reported that Q3 net sales were $130 million, an 11.3 percent decrease from third quarter 2025 ($146.6 million), but a 7.1 percent increase from the second quarter of fiscal 2026.
