CarParts.com, Inc. reported results for the second quarter 2026 ended July 4, 2026. Net sales were $135.6 million, down 10.7% from $151.9 million a year earlier, primarily reflecting profitability initiatives, including rationalizing marketing spend away from lower-margin and lower-lifetime-value customers. Gross profit was $45.1 million versus $49.8 million, while gross margin expanded to 33.2%, up 40 basis points year over year, driven by product mix and favorable freight costs.
Total operating expenses declined to $48.3 million from $62.2 million, contributing to a narrower net loss of $3.2 million compared with $12.7 million in the prior-year quarter. Adjusted EBITDA turned positive at $1.8 million versus ($3.1) million a year ago, which management described as the highest since the third quarter of 2023 and the sixth consecutive quarter of improvement. As of July 4, 2026, cash was $38.2 million and convertible notes payable were $25.4 million, with no revolver borrowings outstanding. Management also highlighted A-Premium approaching a $50 million annualized revenue run rate and fee income from the CarParts.com Mastercard, CarParts+ membership and warranty products nearing a $5 million annualized run rate.
CarParts.com, Inc. entered into a new asset-based revolving credit facility with First Business Specialty Finance, LLC, providing up to $25,000,000 in borrowing capacity secured by substantially all company assets. Availability is limited by a borrowing base tied to cash, receivables, and inventory, and borrowings bear interest at 1‑month Term SOFR plus 3.25% per year, with potential rate reductions if the company achieves specified Fixed Charge Coverage Ratios in its audited results.
The facility matures on March 31, 2028 and auto-renews annually unless terminated, but early termination requires a prepayment premium of $750,000 if before June 15, 2027 or $500,000 thereafter. The agreement includes customary negative covenants, financial maintenance requirements if liquidity falls below $15,000,000 or availability below $7,500,000, and standard events of default that allow acceleration and secured creditor remedies. In connection with this transaction, the company terminated its prior revolving credit facility with JPMorgan Chase Bank, which had no amounts outstanding at termination.

The company’s common stock closed at or above $1.00 per share for 10 consecutive business days, from May 26, 2026 through June 8, 2026.
