Carthage, MO, Sept. 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Leggett & Platt (NYSE:LEG), a diversified manufacturer of engineered products serving several major markets, will release third quarter earnings results on Monday, October 27, 2025 after the market closes, and hold its quarterly conference call to discuss third quarter results, annual guidance, market conditions, company initiatives, and related matters on Tuesday, October 28, 2025, at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time (7:30 a.m. Central Time).

In July, we (my wife and I) received a dividend income total of $4,161.64. My other two Vanguard ETFs – S&P 500 (VOO) and Dividend Appreciation ETF (VIG) - both paid in July. We had a solid increase month, 3 stocks is fine with me here in 2025. Dividend growth has been soft, so 3 stocks increasing dividends is great with me.

Leggett & Platt's capitalization on restructuring efforts continues to pay off with improved efficiency and profitability. Robust liquidity is the cornerstone of its recovery and growth prospects amid potential opportunities in the housing market. Stock underpricing now makes sense as improved fundamentals justify its upside.

AMRZ, HRL and LEG have been added to the Zacks Rank #5 (Strong Sell) List on September 5, 2025.

I remain committed to dividend growth investing, adapting my strategy to balance growth, yield, and defensiveness amid demographic and economic shifts. My 'galley ship' portfolio model uses ballast (cash), rowers (compounders), and sails (high-yielders) to optimize for both income growth and stability. Recent portfolio adjustments focus on defensive, recession-resistant stocks and ETFs, emphasizing passive income growth regardless of market cycles.
