American Outdoor Brands, Inc. Reports First Quarter Fiscal 2026 Financial Results

COLUMBIA, Mo., Sept. 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- American Outdoor Brands, Inc. (NASDAQ Global Select: AOUT), an innovation company that provides product solutions for outdoor enthusiasts, today announced financial results for the first quarter fiscal 2026 ended July 31, 2025.

First Quarter Fiscal 2026 Financial Highlights

  • Quarterly net sales were $29.7 million, a decrease of $11.9 million, or 28.7%, compared with net sales of $41.6 million for the comparable quarter last year.

  • Quarterly gross margin was 46.7%, compared with quarterly gross margin of 45.4% for the comparable quarter last year.

  • Quarterly GAAP net loss was $6.8 million, or $(0.54) per diluted share, compared with a GAAP net loss of $2.4 million, or $(0.18) per diluted share, for the comparable quarter last year.

  • Quarterly non-GAAP net loss was $(3.3) million, or $(0.26) per diluted share, compared with non-GAAP net income of $748,000, or $0.06 per diluted share, for the comparable quarter last year. GAAP to non-GAAP adjustments for net income exclude acquired intangible amortization, stock compensation, and other costs. For a detailed reconciliation, see the schedules that follow in this release.

  • Quarterly non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA was $(3.1) million, or (10.5)% of net sales, compared with Adjusted EBITDA of $2.0 million, or 4.8% of net sales, for the comparable quarter last year. For a detailed reconciliation, see the schedules that follow in this release.

Brian Murphy, President and CEO, said, "Our brands continue to resonate with consumers, fueling stronger point-of-sale performance versus peers across several strategic product categories, a result that is supported by feedback from key retail partners and third-party data. You'll recall that many of these partners accelerated orders late in the fourth quarter to get ahead of tariff-related price changes, ensuring inventory of both our most popular products and exciting new products - such as the Caldwell ClayCopter and BUBBA Smart Fish Scale Lite. We believe the strength in consumer pull-through speaks to the power of our innovation engine and enduring appeal of our portfolio, especially during a seasonally light period of the year. In fact, new products represented nearly 29% of our net sales during the first quarter."

Purchasing activity from our retailers during the first quarter reflected replenishment cycles that were periodically turned on and off on a retailer-by-retailer basis, as each one sought to optimize pricing, product mix, and cash flows, tailored to their specific situation. These ordering patterns created a year-over-year net sales decline in the first quarter. However, if we adjust for the acceleration of orders by our retailers into the fourth quarter, total first quarter net sales would have declined approximately 5% - a favorable result given the environment - and net sales in our traditional channel would have increased by about 15%. This tells us our strategy is effective, and that - coupled with our POS performance - our brands are winning at retail."

Throughout the quarter, our teams did a great job navigating a rapidly changing tariff environment with agility and discipline, while advancing our long-term growth strategy and maintaining our commitment to innovation. That commitment was on full display with our announcement of an expanded partnership between our BUBBA brand and Major League Fishing (MLF). Together, we are integrating MLF SCORETRACKER® technology into the BUBBA app to launch SCORETRACKER LIVE in Spring 2026-delivering real-time tournament hosting and live scoring for anglers, organizers, and fans. We expect this innovation will accelerate our recurring subscription revenue stream and extend BUBBA's reach."

With the first quarter under our belt, these first few months of our fiscal year suggest that the near-term environment will continue to reflect shifting market conditions and evolving consumer trends, requiring us to remain agile and adaptable as we navigate quarterly fluctuations. Going forward, we will continue to lean on a strategy that, we believe, has proven to be resilient across cycles by continuing to innovate, staying close to our consumers, strengthening our retail partnerships, and executing with discipline. These fundamentals, combined with our strong financial position, are not only helping us manage through today's uncertainty, but also positioning us to continue executing on our strategic objectives to maximize long-term value."

Andrew Fulmer, Chief Financial Officer, said, "Including approximately $10 million of net sales that were accelerated by our retailers from the first quarter of fiscal 2026 into the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, first-quarter fiscal 2026 net sales would have declined 4.7% compared with the prior-year period. We believe this performance underscores the continued strength of our popular brands, while also reflecting retailers' measured approach to order flow during this seasonally quiet period ahead of the fall hunting and holiday shopping seasons."

Our balance sheet remains a source of strength, providing us with the resources and flexibility to pursue our strategic objectives. During the quarter, we demonstrated disciplined capital deployment by repurchasing approximately 240,000 shares of our stock for $2.5 million, and we ended the first quarter debt-free with $17.8 million in cash. This strong financial foundation gives us the flexibility to pursue growth opportunities that create long-term, lasting value for shareholders."

Conference Call and Webcast
The Company will host a conference call and webcast today, September 4, 2025, to discuss its first quarter fiscal 2026 financial and operational results. Speakers on the conference call will include Brian Murphy, President and Chief Executive Officer, and Andrew Fulmer, Chief Financial Officer. The conference call may include forward-looking statements and a discussion of non-GAAP financial measures. The conference call and webcast will begin at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time (2:00 p.m. Pacific Time). Those interested in listening to the conference call via telephone may call directly at (833) 630-1956 and ask to join the American Outdoor Brands call. No RSVP is necessary.

Reconciliation of U.S. GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In this press release, certain non-GAAP financial measures, including "non-GAAP net loss" and "Adjusted EBITDA" are presented. A reconciliation of these and other non-GAAP financial measures is contained at the end of this press release. From time to time, the Company considers and uses these non-GAAP financial measures as supplemental measures of operating performance in order to provide the reader with an improved understanding of underlying performance trends. The Company believes it is useful for itself and the reader to review, as applicable, both (1) GAAP measures that include (i) amortization of acquired intangible assets, (ii) stock compensation, (iii) non-recurring inventory reserve adjustment, (iv) emerging growth status transition costs, (v) income tax adjustments, (vi) interest income, (vii) income tax expense, and (viii) depreciation and amortization; and (2) the non-GAAP measures that exclude such information. The Company presents these non-GAAP measures because it considers them an important supplemental measure of its performance and believes the disclosure of such measures provides useful information to investors regarding the Company's financial condition and results of operations. The Company's definition of these adjusted financial measures may differ from similarly named measures used by others. The Company believes these measures facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period by eliminating potential differences caused by the existence and timing of certain expense items that would not otherwise be apparent on a GAAP basis. These non-GAAP measures have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the Company's GAAP measures. The principal limitations of these measures are that they do not reflect the Company's actual expenses and may thus have the effect of inflating its financial measures on a GAAP basis.

Solarbranche vor dem Mega-Comeback?
Lange galten Solaraktien als Liebling der Börse, dann kam der herbe Absturz: Zinsschock, Überkapazitäten aus China und ein Preisverfall, der selbst Marktführer wie SMA Solar, Enphase Energy oder SolarEdge massiv unter Druck setzte. Viele Anleger haben der Branche längst den Rücken gekehrt.

Doch genau das könnte jetzt die Chance sein!
Die Kombination aus KI-Explosion und Energiewende bringt die Branche zurück ins Rampenlicht:
  • Rechenzentren verschlingen Megawatt – Solarstrom bietet den günstigsten Preis je Kilowattstunde
  • Moderne Module liefern Wirkungsgrade wie Atomkraftwerke
  • hina bremst Preisdumping & pusht massiv den Ausbau
Gleichzeitig locken viele Solar-Aktien mit historischen Tiefstständen und massiven Short-Quoten, ein perfekter Nährboden für Kursrebound und Squeeze-Rally.

In unserem exklusiven Gratis-Report zeigen wir dir, welche 4 Solar-Aktien besonders vom Comeback profitieren dürften und warum jetzt der perfekte Zeitpunkt für einen Einstieg sein könnte.
