Spin Master to acquire toy brand Melissa & Doug for US$950M
Spin Master Corp. says its net income for the third quarter was US$155.4 million, up from US$141.4 million from a year earlier.
The Toronto-based toy and entertainment company says revenue for the quarter ended Sept. 30 was US$710.2 million, up from US$624 million.
Excluding its Paw Patrol movie, which came out at the end of September, the company says revenue was US$694.6 million.
Diluted earnings per share were $1.45, up from $1.33.
Spin Master chief executive Max Rangel says the company expects pressure on the toy industry in the fourth quarter amid macroeconomic pressure on consumer spending.
As a result, the company revised its guidance for sales and revenue lower for the full financial year.
