Yahoo Finance ·

Shares of Barnes & Noble Education ( BNED +20.13% ) closed Thursday's trading 19.7% higher thanks to a mixed preliminary earnings report for Q4 2026. The stock is now up 128% from a deep dip last November, but it has only gained 14% over the last year. The analyst consensus pointed to roughly $295 million in Q4 revenues with an adjusted net loss near $0.16 per share. Based on preliminary figures, Barnes & Noble Education expects approximately $263 million in top-line sales, down from $278.3 million in the year-ago period. On the bottom line, however, the quarter is shaping up to adjusted profits of at least $0.05 per share. So the quarter was a mixed bag, but the board of directors still saw it fit to start the dividend program. The first payout will be sent on July 30, at $0.08 per share. That works out to an annual yield of 2.4% if the company maintains the payout over the next four quarters.
