Build-A-Bear Workshop (ISIN US1200761047) stock traded at USD 25.96 on the NYSE on September 23, 2026, down 1.55 percent from USD 26.37. The near-term shareholder event is a USD 0.23 quarterly dividend, with September 24, 2026, set as the record date.

Dividend sets a dated checkpoint

Business Wire reported on September 9, 2026, that Build-A-Bear declared the USD 0.23 payment for holders of record on September 24, with distribution scheduled for October 8, 2026. The dividend gives the stock a defined shareholder timetable even as operating figures remain under pressure.

The payment is part of the company capital-return program. Build-A-Bear said in its first-half fiscal 2026 update that it returned USD 22.7 million through share repurchases and quarterly dividends.

Revenue and EPS weaken

In fiscal Q2 2026, revenue fell 7.2 percent year over year to USD 115.3 million from USD 124.2 million. Diluted EPS declined to USD 0.70 from USD 0.94, while pre-tax income fell to USD 11.6 million from USD 15.3 million, according to Build-A-Bear Workshop in its August 27, 2026 release.

The comparison matters because the revenue decline was paired with a lower profit base, not merely a slower sales rate. The company also lowered fiscal 2026 revenue guidance to USD 500 million to USD 525 million from USD 530 million to USD 550 million.

Stock sits above yearly low

Build-A-Bear Workshop stock closed at USD 25.96 on the NYSE on September 23, 2026. Its 52-week range was USD 24.15 to USD 74.38, placing the latest price USD 1.81, or 7.5 percent, above the low and USD 48.42 below the high.
