Revenue was $102.9 million, down from $107.0 million a year earlier, and the company posted a net loss of $2.4 million versus prior net income of $15.9 million. Loss per diluted share was $0.80, compared with diluted earnings of $5.05 a year ago.

Despite the loss, cash increased to $15.2 million, total assets were $392.5 million, and stockholders’ equity was $92.9 million. The company’s segments generated combined quarterly Adjusted EBITDA of $5.9 million, led by Retail-Entertainment and Steel Manufacturing, while Retail-Flooring remained weak. Management also details significant revolving credit facilities, related-party financing, and mentions ongoing legal and regulatory matters.
Live Ventures reported fiscal second-quarter 2026 revenue of $102.9 million, down 3.8% from the prior year, as weakness in the Retail-Flooring segment outweighed gains elsewhere. Gross margin improved to 33.6% on better mix and efficiencies.
The company posted an operating loss of $2.0 million versus operating income of $2.1 million a year ago, driven mainly by a $4.0 million non-cash goodwill impairment in Steel Manufacturing. Net loss was $2.4 million, compared with net income of $15.9 million in the prior-year quarter, which had benefited from a large gain on a seller note modification.
Adjusted EBITDA was $5.9 million, down 8.8%. Retail-Entertainment delivered double-digit revenue and profit growth, while Retail-Flooring experienced a 26.2% revenue decline and deeper losses amid continued housing-market headwinds. As of March 31, 2026, total cash availability was $39.8 million.

Live Ventures reported quarterly results for the three months ended December 31, 2025. Revenue was 108,544 (thousands of dollars), down slightly from the prior year, but gross margin improved to 32.6% from 31.7% as mix and efficiencies improved in several segments.
The company posted a small net loss of 64 (thousands of dollars), compared with net income of 492 (thousands) a year earlier, mainly due to interest expense. Adjusted EBITDA rose to 7,792 (thousands), helped by stronger Retail-Entertainment and Flooring Manufacturing performance.
Cash from operating activities was 9,847 (thousands), increasing cash on hand to 15,133 (thousands).
