Full-year revenue for 2025 was down 15.5% from 2024. The last positive month was February 2025, when the company's revenue increased by 30.9%.\n\nSome progress is being made on resolving the ban. Giant met with US Customs and Border Protection's Forced Labour Division last week, with CBP indicating the case remains \"one of its priority matters\" and that it is working to accelerate its review. Giant described the meeting as \"constructive and productive.\"\n\nUntil the WRO is lifted, Giant's US-bound product will come from its factory in Vietnam.",
