Welcome to our dedicated page for HELEN OF TROY SEC filings (Ticker: HELE), a comprehensive resource for investors and traders seeking official regulatory documents including 10-K annual reports, 10-Q quarterly earnings, 8-K material events, and insider trading forms.
Helen of Troy Limited filings document formal disclosures for a Bermuda consumer products company with branded home, outdoor, beauty and wellness categories. Form 8-K reports furnish quarterly and fiscal-year operating results, including discussion of net sales, margins, tariffs, freight, promotional expense, inventory effects and brand-category demand.
The company's filings also record capital-structure and governance matters, including amendments to its revolving credit facility, financial covenant terms, board and executive officer changes, the 2025 Stock Incentive Plan and annual shareholder voting results. These records connect Helen of Troy's brand portfolio and operating performance with its debt arrangements, compensation plans and public-company governance.
Helen of Troy Limited entered into a First Amendment to its existing Credit Agreement with Bank of America and other lenders. The amendment reduces the revolving credit facility commitment from $1.0 billion to $750.0 million and adjusts interest rate pricing for higher leverage levels, so that when the Net Leverage Ratio is at or above 4.00 to 1.00, borrowings bear floating interest at the Base Rate plus a 1.375% margin or Term SOFR plus a 2.375% margin, with an additional 0.10% credit spread for Term SOFR.
The amendment also revises key financial covenants. The interest coverage test now uses a Consolidated EBITDA measure in the numerator, and the maximum permitted Leverage Ratio steps down over time, from 4.50 to 1.00 through August 31, 2026 to 3.50 to 1.00 from August 31, 2027 onward. Subject to conditions for a Qualified Acquisition, the borrower may elect a Leverage Holiday after August 31, 2027. Certain investment and indebtedness baskets are reduced until August 31, 2027, while customary events of default remain in place.
Helen of Troy Limited appointed its Chief Executive Officer, G. Scott Uzzell, to the Company’s Board of Directors effective November 4, 2025. He will serve as a director until the next annual general meeting of shareholders or until a successor is elected or appointed.
The Board does not plan to assign Mr. Uzzell to any Board committee, and he will not receive compensation for his Board service. The Board intends to nominate him for election at the next annual meeting. The Company states there are no arrangements or understandings tied to his appointment, no family relationships with current directors or officers, and no related person transactions under Item 404(a) of Regulation S‑K.

Ms. Judge will continue in her role through the effective date to support a smooth transition, and the company expressed appreciation for her contributions and leadership.
Helen of Troy Limited reported weaker first-half fiscal 2026 results driven by softer consumer demand, tariff pressures and significant non-cash impairments. Consolidated net sales for the six months ended August 31, 2025 were $803.4 million, down 9.8% from prior year, with Organic declines largely in Beauty & Wellness and insulated beverageware categories. Management recorded substantial pre-tax asset impairment charges of approximately $326.4 million (including goodwill, indefinite-lived and definite-lived intangibles) and operating losses that reflect those write-downs. The Olive & June acquisition contributed $60.3 million to year-to-date sales; purchase consideration included initial cash of $224.7 million plus contingent consideration up to $15.0 million. Net leverage and covenant flexibility are in focus: $625 million of debt was hedged with swaps and credit facility headroom was effectively limited to $212.7 million; management expects to seek a temporary covenant amendment. Cost actions, working-capital measures and Project Pegasus initiatives were initiated to preserve liquidity.
