GrowGeneration Reports Third Quarter 2026 Financial Results

A $2.6 million tariff-refund reduction in cost of sales helped the quarter's return to profitability.

Rhea-AI Summary

GrowGeneration (NASDAQ: GRWG) returned to GAAP net income in the third quarter of 2026 despite lower year-over-year sales. Net income was $237,000, versus a $2.437 million loss, while sales fell to $44.8 million from $47.3 million. Gross margin rose to 32.4% from 27.2%, helped by a $2.6 million tariff-refund reduction in cost of sales. Proprietary-brand sales increased 19.3% to $14.4 million. Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP earnings measure, reached $2.3 million versus $1.3 million.

GrowGeneration narrowed full-year revenue guidance to $163 million–$165 million from $162 million–$168 million. It withdrew its $2 million–$3 million adjusted EBITDA guidance because of potential fourth-quarter closure and restructuring costs and the timing of savings. The company expects four to five fourth-quarter store closures, including two already completed. Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities totaled $41.8 million, with no debt.

How this balance works

Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.

It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.

Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

controlled environment agriculture technical

"specialty products for controlled environment agriculture (CEA)"

Controlled environment agriculture is the practice of growing fruits, vegetables or herbs inside purpose-built spaces—such as greenhouses or indoor farms—where light, temperature, humidity and water are tightly managed to produce consistent crops year-round. Investors watch it because it turns farming into a predictable, scalable operation (like a factory for plants), affecting yields, costs, supply reliability and price stability, and therefore the revenue and risk profile of businesses involved.

gaap financial

"reconciliation table of U.S. GAAP to non-GAAP information"

GAAP, or Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, are a set of standardized rules and guidelines that companies follow when preparing their financial statements. They ensure consistency, transparency, and comparability across different companies, making it easier for investors to understand and compare financial information accurately. This helps investors make informed decisions based on trustworthy and uniform financial reports.

non-gaap financial

"reconciliation table of U.S. GAAP to non-GAAP information"

Non-GAAP refers to financial measures that companies use to show their earnings or performance without including certain expenses or income that are often added back to give a different picture. It matters because it can make a company's results look better or more favorable, but it may also hide important costs, so investors need to look at both GAAP (official rules) and non-GAAP numbers to get a full understanding.

ieepa regulatory

"reduction in cost of sales associated with IEEPA tariff refunds"

A U.S. law that gives the president broad authority to control trade, freeze assets, and block financial transactions during a declared national emergency. Investors care because those powers can abruptly restrict a company's ability to sell products, access cash, or do business with certain countries or parties, creating sudden risks to revenues, supply chains and share prices — like an emergency brake that can stop or reroute parts of a business overnight.

DENVER, Nov. 10, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GrowGeneration Corp. (NASDAQ: GRWG) (“GrowGeneration,” “GrowGen,” or the “Company”), one of the nation’s largest suppliers of specialty products for controlled environment agriculture (CEA), commercial cultivation, and garden centers, today announced financial results for the third quarter of 2026.

Third Quarter 2026 Summary

• Net sales of $44.8 million, compared to $47.3 million in the prior-year period;
• Proprietary brand sales increased 19.3% year-over-year to $14.4 million, representing 40.6% of Cultivation and Gardening revenue, compared to 31.6% in the prior-year period;
• Gross profit margin of 32.4%, compared to 27.2% for the third quarter of 2025;
• Store and other operating expenses declined approximately 11.9% to $6.4 million, compared to $7.2 million in the third quarter of 2025;
• Total operating expenses decreased $1.1 million, or 7.1%, to $14.6 million in the third quarter of 2026, compared to $15.7 million for the same period in the prior-year;
• Net income improved $2.7 million to $0.2 million, compared to a net loss of $2.4 million for the same period in 2025;
• Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ of $2.3 million, a $0.9 million year-over-year improvement compared to $1.3 million for the comparable prior-year period; and
• Cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities of $41.8 million and no debt.

Darren Lampert, GrowGen’s Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Our third-quarter results reflect the continued progress of GrowGeneration's transformation into a national commercial cultivation supply and proprietary-brand platform. We delivered $44.8 million in revenue, expanded gross margin to 32.4%, and generated $2.3 million in Adjusted EBITDA. Proprietary-brand sales increased approximately 19% year-over-year and represented more than 40% of Cultivation and Gardening revenue, demonstrating the progress we are making in shifting our business toward higher-margin products and commercial customers.

"We are also continuing to take meaningful actions to improve our cost structure, including a strategic restructuring plan initiated in the fourth quarter. Store and other operating expenses declined approximately 12% year-over-year, and we are moving forward with four to five store closures in the fourth quarter, along with additional restructuring initiatives designed to further reduce fixed costs and improve operating efficiency. While these actions may impact near-term profitability, we believe they will position GrowGeneration to operate more efficiently and achieve higher levels of profitability in 2027.

"We are pleased with our progress through the first nine months of 2026 and remain focused on building a stronger, more profitable business. With $41.8 million in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities and no debt, we have the financial flexibility to execute our strategic initiatives while maintaining a disciplined approach to capital allocation. Our priorities remain consistent, expanding our commercial business, increasing proprietary-brand penetration, and leveraging our distribution infrastructure and technology investments to support profitable growth,” added Mr. Lampert.

Third Quarter 2026 Consolidated Results

Net sales were $44.8 million for the third quarter of 2026, compared to $43.2 million in the second quarter of 2026 and $47.3 million in the third quarter of 2025. Sequential revenue growth was driven largely by our commercial B2B business and continued expansion of proprietary brand penetration; the year-over-year change reflects our lower store count compared to last year. Cultivation and Gardening net sales were $35.6 million for the third quarter of 2026, compared to $34.9 million in the second quarter of 2026 and $38.4 million for the same period in the prior-year. Net sales in our Storage Solutions segment were $9.2 million for the third quarter of 2026, compared to $8.3 million last quarter and $8.9 million in the third quarter of 2025.

Proprietary brand sales as a percentage of Cultivation and Gardening net sales increased to 40.6%, compared to 31.6% for the same period in the prior year. Our increasing proprietary brands penetration continues to be driven by our strategic initiatives to expand our sales mix of higher-margin proprietary products.

Gross profit was $14.5 million for the third quarter of 2026, compared to gross profit of $12.9 million for the third quarter of 2025. The improvement included a $2.6 million reduction in cost of sales associated with IEEPA tariff refunds. A higher mix of proprietary-brand products also contributed favorably to gross margin, partially offset by higher transportation costs, increased estimated inventory obsolescence expenses, and lower sales volume associated with the Company's reduced store footprint.

Total operating expenses, which include store operations and other operational expenses, selling, general, and administrative expense, estimated credit losses, depreciation and amortization, and impairment loss decreased in the third quarter of 2026 by $1.1 million, or 7.1%, to $14.6 million, compared to $15.7 million in the third quarter of 2025.

Store and other operating expenses in the third quarter of 2026 declined by approximately 11.9% to $6.4 million, compared to $7.2 million in the third quarter of 2025, reflecting the benefits of our streamlined retail footprint and cost-reduction initiatives.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses in the third quarter of 2026 were $6.8 million, compared to $5.7 million in the third quarter of 2025. The year-over-year change was primarily due to increases in our commercial sales structure that support our growth initiatives and certain non-recurring expenses incurred during the quarter.

GAAP net income was $0.2 million in the third quarter of 2026, a $2.7 million improvement compared to a net loss of $2.4 million in the third quarter of 2025. The improvement was primarily driven by higher gross profit, driven largely by the IEEPA tariff refund and higher proprietary brand penetration, reduced operating expenses, and lower depreciation and amortization.

Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA(1) was $2.3 million in the third quarter of 2026, our second consecutive quarter of positive Adjusted EBITDA and a $0.9 million year-over-year improvement compared to $1.3 million in the third quarter of 2025, reflecting gross margin improvement and the continued realization of operational cost-reduction initiatives.

Cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities as of September 30, 2026 were $41.8 million. Inventory as of September 30, 2026 was $33.6 million, and prepaid and other current assets were $9.3 million. During the third quarter, the Company repurchased approximately 0.7 million shares of common stock at an average price of $1.46 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $1.0 million, with approximately $8.0 million remaining available under its share repurchase authorization as of September 30, 2026.

Total current liabilities, including accounts payable, accrued payroll, and other liabilities, as of September 30, 2026 were $28.9 million.

Geographic Footprint

Our geographic footprint for our Cultivation and Gardening segment spans 492,000 square feet of retail and warehouse space and includes 19 retail locations across 9 states as of September 30, 2026. During the first nine months of 2026, we closed four retail locations. In connection with our strategic restructuring plan initiated in the fourth quarter of 2026, we expect to close four to five additional locations during the fourth quarter, including two locations that have already been closed, as part of our ongoing efforts to reduce fixed costs and improve operating efficiency. We continue to serve customers through our remaining locations, commercial sales organization, and online platforms, including growgeneration.com and GrowGenPro.

2026 Outlook

GrowGeneration is narrowing its full-year 2026 net revenue guidance to a range of $163 million to $165 million, compared to its previous guidance of $162 million to $168 million. The Company exceeded its previously established year-end target of approximately 40% proprietary-brand penetration of Cultivation and Gardening revenue during the third quarter, achieving 40.6%, ahead of expectations.

While the Company is satisfied with its third-quarter performance and results through the first nine months of 2026, which exceeded its initial operating plan, management is taking additional steps during the fourth quarter to further reduce its ongoing cost structure and position the business for improved profitability in 2027.

These initiatives include four to five retail store closures during the fourth quarter, two of which have already been completed, as well as other restructuring and operational efficiency measures. Given the potential fourth-quarter financial impact of these activities, including closure-related and restructuring costs and the timing of anticipated savings, the Company is withdrawing its previously issued full-year 2026 Adjusted EBITDA guidance of $2 million to $3 million.

The Company expects these initiatives to reduce its ongoing fixed-cost base and support higher levels of profitability in 2027, while maintaining its focus on commercial sales growth, proprietary-brand expansion, and disciplined capital allocation.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

The following non-GAAP financial measures of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures, when used in conjunction with their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, net income (loss), provide meaningful supplemental information to both management and investors, facilitating the evaluation of performance across reporting periods, identification of trends affecting our business, and projection of future performance. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures for internal planning and reporting purposes, and we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures may be useful to investors in their assessment of our operating performance, our ability to generate cash, and valuation. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures address questions routinely received from analysts and investors and, in order to ensure that all investors have access to the same data, we have determined that it is appropriate to make this data available to all investors. These non-GAAP financial measures may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures commonly used in our industry and should not be construed in isolation as substitutes for net income (loss) as indicators of operating performance or as alternatives to cash flow provided by operating activities as a measure of liquidity (each as determined in accordance with GAAP). GrowGeneration defines EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest income, interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, and Adjusted EBITDA as further adjusted to exclude certain items such as stock-based compensation, impairment losses, restructuring and corporate rationalization costs, and other non-core or non-recurring expenses and to include income from our marketable securities as these investments are part of our operational business strategy and increase the cash available to us.
