Key Terms

5 terms
ebitda financial
"EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) excluding interest income/expense"
EBITDA stands for earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. It measures a company's profitability by focusing on the money it makes from its core operations, ignoring expenses like taxes and accounting adjustments. Investors use EBITDA to compare how well different companies are performing financially, as it provides a clearer picture of operational success without the influence of financial structure or accounting choices.
View in glossary
non-gaap financial measure financial
"EBITDA is a “non-GAAP financial measure” as defined under Regulation G"
A non-GAAP financial measure is a way companies present their financial results that excludes certain expenses or income to show how they believe their core business is performing. It matters because it can give a clearer picture of how the company is really doing, but it can also be used to make results look better than they actually are.
regulation g regulatory
"as defined under Regulation G under the Exchange Act"
Regulation G is a U.S. securities rule that requires companies to show and explain how any highlighted financial numbers that differ from standard accounting figures were calculated, and to provide a clear bridge to the official results. For investors this acts like a recipe card: when a company presents a simplified or adjusted profit number, Regulation G forces them to show the original ingredients and steps so readers can judge whether the adjusted figure gives a clearer or misleading picture of financial health.
weighted-average price financial
"at a weighted-average price of $1.81 per share"
Weighted-average price is the average of multiple prices where each price is counted according to its size or importance—larger trades carry more weight than smaller ones, like averaging course grades by credit hours. It matters to investors because it gives a more realistic picture of the true price paid or received, helping assess trade execution, compare performance, calculate cost basis, and value positions more accurately than a simple average.
operating leverage financial
"These results demonstrate the operating leverage embedded in our platform"
Operating leverage measures how much a company's profits are affected by changes in sales volume. When a business has high operating leverage, small increases in sales can lead to much larger increases in profit, much like a lever amplifies force. It matters to investors because it indicates how sensitive a company's earnings are to fluctuations in sales, affecting risk and potential returns.

QUINCY, Mass., Aug. 11, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Stran & Company, Inc. ("Stran" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: SWAG) (NASDAQ: SWAGW), a leading outsourced marketing solutions provider that leverages its promotional products and loyalty incentive expertise, today announced its financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, and provided a business update. Management will host a conference call at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on Wednesday, August 12, 2026.

Second Quarter Financial Highlights

  • Sales: $33.4 million, up 2.4% year-over-year
  • Gross Profit: $10.0 million, up 1.6% year-over-year
  • Net Income: $0.3 million
  • EBITDA: $0.6 million
  • Cash, Cash Equivalents and Investments: $12.6 million as of June 30, 2026

First-Half 2026 Financial Highlights

  • Sales: $64.6 million, up 5.4% year-over-year
  • Gross Profit: $19.7 million, up 7.2% year-over-year
  • Net Income: $1.1 million
  • EBITDA: $1.6 million

“The first half of 2026 represents the strongest six-month period in Stran’s history as a public company,” said Andy Shape, Chief Executive Officer of Stran. “Revenue grew 5.4% to $64.6 million, gross profit increased 7.2% to $19.7 million, and we delivered net income of $1.1 million compared to $0.3 million in the first half of 2025. EBITDA more than doubled to $1.6 million from $0.7 million. These results demonstrate the operating leverage embedded in our platform and the progress we have made in building a sustainably profitable business.”

“Our core Stran segment continued to be the primary growth engine in the second quarter, with revenue increasing 6.9% year-over-year to $23.3 million and gross margin of 32.5%. We expanded our enterprise footprint during the quarter with a new contract with a leading construction solutions provider expected to generate nearly seven figures in annual revenue and the onboarding of an industry veteran with a book of business focused on the gaming market. Our Stran Loyalty Solutions, LLC (“SLS”) segment continued to improve operationally, increasing gross profit 7.8% to $2.5 million and nearly doubling operating income to $443 thousand, with gross margin expanding to 24.3% from 21.0% in the prior-year period. While the timing of customer orders created some variability in SLS revenue, the segment’s trajectory toward sustainable profitability remains firmly intact.”

“During the second quarter, we also resumed share repurchase activity under our $10 million authorized program, repurchasing and retiring approximately 131,000 shares at a cost of $272,000. Since program inception in May 2022, the Company has repurchased a total of 2.3 million shares for $4.2 million at a weighted-average price of $1.81 per share. We were also pleased to advance to No. 21 on the 2026 ASI Counselor Top 40 Distributors list, up from No. 23 in 2025.”

“Looking ahead, our growing enterprise pipeline, diversified customer base of more than 2,000 active clients including over 30 Fortune 500 companies, and a strong balance sheet with approximately $12.6 million in cash, cash equivalents and investments position us well for the balance of 2026. We remain committed to expanding both our Stran and SLS segments, pursuing disciplined acquisition opportunities when appropriate, and delivering sustainable, long-term value for our customers and shareholders.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

EBITDA is a numerical measure that the Company believes helps investors to compare its operating performance to that of other companies. “EBITDA” is defined as net income (loss) excluding interest income/expense, income tax expense and depreciation and amortization expense. The Company believes EBITDA is an important measure of operating performance because it allows management, investors and others to evaluate and compare the Company’s core operating results from period to period by removing (i) the impact of the Company’s capital structure (interest income/expense), (ii) tax consequences and (iii) asset base (depreciation and amortization). EBITDA is a “non-GAAP financial measure” as defined under Regulation G under the Exchange Act. EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income, cash flows from operating activities or any other measure determined in accordance with GAAP. The items excluded to calculate EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing the Company’s results of operations. The Company’s EBITDA may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure of another company because other entities may not calculate EBITDA in the same manner.
