The Honest Company reported Q1 2026 results showing lower sales but steadier profitability. Revenue was $78.1 million, down 19.7% from $97.3 million a year earlier, mainly from strategic exits tied to its Powering Honest Growth restructuring and weaker diaper sales.

Honest ended the quarter with $90.4 million in cash and cash equivalents, no borrowings under its $35 million revolving credit facility, and had repurchased about $3.0 million of stock under a new $25 million buyback plan.
