Solo Brands, Inc. reported fiscal 2026 second-quarter net sales of $88.5 million, down 4.1% from 2025, as softer direct-to-consumer demand in Solo Stove and Chubbies offset growth in Watersports retail and international channels. Despite lower revenue, profitability improved: net loss attributable to Solo Brands narrowed to $4.4 million from $13.5 million, and adjusted EBITDA rose to $13.5 million, or 15.3% of net sales, up from 11.4%. Operating expenses fell 25.5% to $49.5 million, aided by payroll reductions and lower marketing, seller fees and shipping costs.
For the first half of 2026, net sales declined 10.7% to $151.3 million, but net loss attributable to Solo Brands improved to $9.9 million from $25.7 million, and adjusted EBITDA increased to $15.1 million (10.0% margin). Cash and cash equivalents increased to $35.4 million while inventory declined to $59.6 million, reflecting supply-chain optimization and tariff refunds. Term-loan borrowings were $258.3 million, and the company fully repaid its revolver, leaving $57.2 million of availability. Solo Brands reaffirmed full-year 2026 guidance for net sales of $280–$310 million and adjusted EBITDA of $24–$30 million.
Solo Brands, Inc. held its 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders on May 22, 2026, where stockholders approved an Amended and Restated 2021 Incentive Award Plan that increases the number of shares of Class A common stock authorized for issuance under the plan. A total of 2,005,034 shares of Class A common stock outstanding as of March 24, 2026 were present in person or by proxy, representing a quorum. Stockholders elected Class II directors Paul Furer and Peter Laurinaitis to terms ending at the 2029 annual meeting, ratified the appointment of BDO USA, P.C. as independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2026, and approved an adjournment proposal that ultimately was not used because the incentive plan proposal passed.
Solo Brands, Inc. reported first quarter 2026 results showing weaker sales but a smaller loss and continued progress on its restructuring. Net sales were $62.9 million, down 18.6% from $77.3 million a year ago, as Solo Stove and Chubbies both saw lower direct-to-consumer and retail revenue. Gross profit was $32.9 million, or 52.3% of net sales, compared with 55.2% in the prior year, reflecting tariff impacts and sales mix.
Operating expenses fell sharply to $37.6 million from $53.2 million, driven by lower compensation, marketing and restructuring charges. Net loss attributable to Solo Brands narrowed to $5.5 million, or $2.18 per diluted share, versus a $12.2 million loss, while adjusted EBITDA was $1.6 million, or 2.5% of net sales, down from $3.5 million. Cash and cash equivalents were $16.5 million and inventory was $82.9 million as of March 31, 2026, with $258.9 million outstanding on the 2025 Term Loan and $15.0 million drawn on the revolving credit facility.
The company said new Solo Stove and watersports product launches contributed to improving sales trends exiting the quarter and reaffirmed its full-year 2026 outlook for net sales of $280 million to $310 million and adjusted EBITDA of $24 million to $30 million.
Solo Brands, Inc. announced a leadership change in its finance team, appointing Paul Seeds as Chief Accounting Officer and principal accounting officer effective May 2, 2026, succeeding David McGuire.
McGuire will remain in his role through May 1, 2026 to support a smooth transition, and his resignation is explicitly stated not to result from any disagreement over operations, financial reporting, or internal controls. Seeds, age 55, currently serves as Vice President of Internal Audit and has more than 20 years of experience in accounting, financial reporting, and internal controls at public companies, including leadership positions at The Vitamin Shoppe Industries, Inc. and Pier 1 Imports, Inc.
Solo Brands, Inc. received notice from the New York Stock Exchange that it will commence proceedings to delist the company’s Class A common stock for failing to meet the NYSE’s Rule 802.01B requirement of at least $15 million average global market capitalization over 30 trading days. Trading on the NYSE was suspended after market close on April 2, 2026.
The company is evaluating whether to appeal this determination to an NYSE committee. If it does not appeal or an appeal is unsuccessful, the NYSE is expected to file a Form 25, and the delisting would become effective 10 days after that filing.
Solo Brands expects its common stock to begin trading on the OTCQB Venture Market on April 6, 2026 under the symbol “SBDS,” though there is no guarantee a broker will maintain a market or that OTCQB or other trading will continue. Management states operations, strategic priorities, and financial position are unchanged, that the balance sheet remains sound, debt covenants are in compliance, and the company is prioritizing cash flow generation to reduce debt and ultimately return to a national exchange.
Solo Brands, Inc. reclassified one director to rebalance its staggered board. On March 21, 2026, the Board moved Peter Laurinaitis from Class III, with a term through the 2027 annual meeting, to Class II, with a term through the 2026 annual meeting. He resigned as a Class III director and was immediately re-elected as a Class II director, with his Board and Audit Committee service treated as continuous. The Board now has three Class I directors, two Class II directors, and two Class III directors. The company also filed a revised consent from Ernst & Young LLP to update the consent date in its Form 10-K, without changing any previously reported financial results or disclosures.
Solo Brands, Inc. issued financial guidance for 2026, projecting net sales between $280 million and $310 million compared with $316.8 million in 2025, and adjusted EBITDA between $24 million and $30 million versus $18.5 million in 2025. Management describes entering 2026 as a leaner business with a better cost structure, expecting a softer first quarter due to retail timing and marketing for new product launches but seeing early signs of improving demand into the second quarter. Full-year guidance assumes an uneven demand environment, tariff-related refunds and rate reductions, and benefits from payroll reductions and restructuring efforts. The company highlights adjusted EBITDA as a key non-GAAP performance measure and provides a 2025 reconciliation showing a net loss of $145.4 million converting to adjusted EBITDA of $18.5 million after significant restructuring and related adjustments.
Solo Brands, Inc. reported sharply lower results for fiscal 2025 as it restructures into a smaller, profit-focused business. Net sales fell to $316.6 million, down 30.4% from 2024, driven mainly by a 43.8% decline at Solo Stove as the company kept pricing disciplined and retailers worked through excess inventory.
Despite the revenue drop, gross margin improved to 59.4%, and selling, general and administrative expenses fell 32.8% to $176.2 million through cost-cutting and lower marketing spend. However, restructuring, contract termination and impairment charges of $93.5 million and higher interest costs contributed to a net loss of $145.4 million, although this was better than the prior year’s $180.2 million loss.
On an adjusted basis, the company swung from adjusted net income of $11.4 million in 2024 to an adjusted net loss of $14.7 million in 2025, and adjusted EBITDA declined to $18.5 million. Chubbies was a bright spot, with net sales up 9.1% to $122.9 million and segment EBITDA rising to $22.4 million. Cash increased to $20.0 million and inventory fell to $81.6 million, but total outstanding borrowings under the 2025 Term Loan reached $253.1 million, leaving leverage elevated as the turnaround continues.
Solo Brands, Inc. reported that Michael Dennison has resigned from its Board of Directors, including all Board committees and his role as Lead Independent Director, effective March 3, 2026. The company stated that his departure is not due to any disagreement over operations, policies, or practices.
The Board expects to appoint Peter Laurinaitis to fill the resulting vacancy on the Board’s Audit Committee before Mr. Dennison’s resignation becomes effective. Solo Brands also included standard cautionary language about forward-looking statements, particularly around expectations for future Board and committee composition.

As of November 11, 2025, Mr. Larson received a one-time RSU award equal to 6% of the Company’s fully diluted outstanding equity. Of this grant, 31.25% vested immediately on the grant date, with the remainder vesting in quarterly installments from June 23, 2025 so that the award is fully vested on the third anniversary of that date, subject to his continued service.
