Bridgford Foods Corporation (BRID) reported another loss-making quarter for the twelve weeks ended July 10, 2026, with net sales of $47.0 million versus $52.0 million a year earlier and a net loss of $2.0 million compared with $1.6 million last year. For the thirty-six weeks, net sales were $152.4 million (down modestly from $155.1 million) and the net loss widened to $7.8 million from $6.6 million.
Despite lower sales, gross margin for the quarter improved to 23.1% from 20.5% as cost of products sold fell 12.5%, helped by pricing and some lower input costs, while SG&A declined slightly. Liquidity is pressured: cash was $333 thousand, the company had $6.0 million outstanding on its Wells Fargo revolver, and it violated quick ratio and net income covenants at quarter-end, which were subsequently waived.
Wells Fargo extended the $7.5 million revolving credit facility maturity to September 29, 2026 and then notified Bridgford it will not renew the line. Management is seeking a replacement facility and may need to rely on cash from operations and overfunded life insurance policies if one is not secured. Working capital was $35.0 million and net cash used in operating activities for the thirty-six weeks improved to $4.0 million from $5.6 million in the prior-year period.
