Gross margin was 41.9%, boosted by $753,000 of U.S. tariff refunds; excluding refunds, margin was 36.1%. The company reported a loss before tax of $0.38 million, narrower than 2025. Liquidity remained strong with $3.0 million in cash and $16.8 million in U.S. Treasuries, and a $5.0 million undrawn credit facility. Key risks include heavy reliance on contract manufacturing in China, tariff and trade-policy volatility, customer concentration (Amazon DTC about 22% of 2026 sales), significant stock ownership by the Koss family, and pronounced stock-price and volume volatility.
Koss Corporation (KOSS) reported improved fourth quarter and full-year results for the periods ended June 30, 2026. Fourth quarter net sales were $3.26 million, up 5.8% from $3.08 million a year earlier, with net income of $476,801 versus a net loss of $232,696, and earnings of $0.05 per share versus a loss of $0.02.
Growth in the quarter was driven by direct-to-consumer sales, which increased 36.2% year over year, including a 45.6% increase in Koss.com sales, and roughly 12% growth to certain domestic distributors, while European markets declined as distributors reduced inventory.
For fiscal 2026, net sales were $13.0 million, up 3.1% from $12.6 million, primarily from a custom headphones sale to an Education customer and stronger DTC and domestic distributor sales. The company’s net loss narrowed to $391,464 from $874,831, with loss per share improving to $0.04 from $0.09. Tariff refunds of $1.0 million and a more favorable sales mix lifted gross margin from 37.8% to 41.9%. Koss highlighted a “diversification by acquisition” strategy aimed at building additional recurring revenue streams over the next five years.

Koss Corporation reported modest sales growth but wider losses for the quarter ended March 31, 2026. Net sales for the quarter inched up to $2.8 million, with stronger U.S. demand and direct-to-consumer sales offset by sharply lower export revenue. For the nine months, sales reached $9.8 million, helped by education and distribution orders.
Gross margin fell to 35.5% from 39.0% as tariffs and earlier high freight costs pressured profitability, leading to a nine‑month net loss of $868,265. Koss reclassified about $17.0 million of U.S. Treasury securities to available-for-sale to support a diversification-by-acquisition strategy. The company ended the period with $1.9 million in cash, $17.0 million in liquid investments, no borrowings on a $5 million credit facility, and significant tax loss carryforwards.
Koss Corporation reported slightly higher third-quarter net sales but a wider loss. Net sales for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 rose 1.6% to $2.82 million, yet the company posted a net loss of $546,587, compared with a $316,742 loss a year earlier. Basic and diluted loss per share doubled to $0.06.
For the first nine months, net sales increased 2.3% to $9.76 million, while the net loss widened to $868,265. Gross margins fell from 38.4% to 35.5%, pressured by higher-tariff Chinese inventory and earlier elevated freight costs. Management highlighted 23% year-over-year growth in higher-margin direct-to-consumer sales, now the largest segment, partially offsetting weaker European demand.
Koss Corporation President and CEO Michael J. Koss, who is also a director and more than 10% owner of KOSS, reported a trust-related transfer involving 12,000 shares of common stock on February 17, 2026. The shares were distributed from a trust benefiting an adult child, where he serves as co-trustee.
Following this distribution, the filing shows 0 shares held through that specific trust, while he continues to hold 774,907 common shares directly, 2,696,634 shares as voting trustee of a family voting trust, and 157,801 shares through an ESOP, with beneficial ownership disclaimed except to the extent of his pecuniary interest.
Koss Corporation reported a weaker quarter ended December 31, 2025. Net sales fell to $2.9 million from $3.6 million, mainly because prior-year European new product orders did not repeat, while domestic sales grew modestly and an education customer drove first-half growth.
Gross margin dropped to 29.0% from 39.5%, pressured by high tariffs on China-sourced inventory, some as high as 145%, and slightly higher freight. Selling, general and administrative costs rose to $1.8 million, largely from $250,000 of patent-related legal expenses that fully offset a $250,000 licensing gain, resulting in a net loss of $565,407, or $0.06 per share.
The company ended the quarter with $2.5 million in cash, $13.0 million in short-term U.S. Treasury investments, $4.0 million in long-term Treasuries and an undrawn $5.0 million credit facility, supporting liquidity despite ongoing macroeconomic, tariff and supply chain uncertainties.
