(TR) reported that its subsidiary, Tutsi, S.A. de C.V., completed the acquisition of the confectionery business of The Klass Company in Mexico on September 1, 2026, including the Winis brand. The company states that this acquisition is expected to complement its existing Mexico confectionery business, which features the Tutsi Pop brand.
Tootsie Roll Industries reported softer results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026. Total revenue was $154,219 versus $155,088 a year earlier, with net product sales at $151,943 (down 0.8%). Net earnings attributable to the company were $13,347 versus $17,544, and EPS was $0.18 compared with $0.23. First‑half 2026 net earnings were $31,008, down from $35,602, or $0.41 per share versus $0.47.
Management cites timing shifts of seasonal sales, higher cocoa and chocolate unit costs, elevated energy-driven packaging costs, and increased freight fuel surcharges as key pressures. Higher trade promotions, advertising, and professional fees also weighed on profitability. Adjusted operating income fell to $14,334 in Q2 2026 from $22,991, with adjusted operating margin at 9.4% versus 15.0%.
Liquidity remains strong: at June 30, 2026, aggregate cash, cash equivalents, and investments totaled $572,908, though first‑half operating cash flow was $(10,879) due to inventory build and tax timing. Capital expenditures reached $20,614 in the first half, including a U.S. plant expansion expected to cost $75,000–$85,000 over several years, funded from internal resources. The company again highlights exposure to a multi‑employer pension plan, where estimated withdrawal liability for 2025 was $102,800, and notes ongoing tariff and food‑dye regulatory uncertainties.

Tootsie Roll Industries, Inc. reported second quarter and first half 2026 results. Second quarter 2026 net sales were $151,943,000 compared to $153,190,000 in second quarter 2025.

Management attributed performance to timing of sales, including seasonal sales between the second and third quarters, and higher trade promotions that reduce reported net sales. Gross profit margins were pressured by significantly higher cocoa and chocolate unit costs, elevated energy costs affecting freight and packaging, unfavorable international results, and increased marketing and professional fees. Effective income tax rates were 26.9% in second quarter 2026 and 33.1% in 2025, and 25.9% and 27.7% for the first half 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Tootsie Roll Industries reported modest first quarter 2026 growth in sales but slightly lower profits. Net sales were $149,488,000, up from $146,521,000 in first quarter 2025, a 2% increase. Net earnings were $17,661,000 versus $18,058,000, while net earnings per share held steady at $0.24 in both periods.
Management cited successful marketing and trade promotions as sales drivers but noted gross profit margins were pressured by significantly higher cocoa and chocolate unit costs, unfavorable international results, and increased trade promotions. The company benefited from higher investment income, but its effective income tax rate rose to 25.1% from 21.6%, weighing on earnings. Tootsie Roll is continuing to invest in manufacturing capacity and efficiency and expects lower cocoa and chocolate costs to flow through its supply chain in late 2026 and into 2027.
Tootsie Roll Industries, Inc. reports solid full-year 2025 results with net product sales of $724.7M, up 1.3% from 2024. Total revenue reached $732.5M.
Net earnings attributable to the company rose to $100.1M, with earnings per share increasing to $1.37 from $1.18. Operating earnings were $100.9M, essentially flat year over year, as higher pricing and cost controls offset ingredient inflation, especially cocoa and chocolate.
The company ended 2025 with cash, cash equivalents and investments totaling $613.7M and generated operating cash flow of $130.6M. Capital expenditures were $34.3M, including spending on a multi-year U.S. plant expansion, while cash dividends paid were $26.1M and share repurchases were $6.5M.
Tootsie Roll Industries reported modestly higher sales and significantly stronger profits for the fourth quarter and full year 2025.

Earnings per share increased to $0.40 from $0.31, a 29% gain driven by improved margins and higher investment income despite higher ingredient costs and unfavorable foreign exchange.
For the full year 2025, net sales were $724.7 million compared with $715.5 million in 2024, and net earnings grew to $100.1 million from $86.8 million. Earnings per share increased to $1.37 from $1.18, supported by pricing actions, marketing initiatives, and investment income, partially offset by elevated cocoa and packaging costs, tariff expenses, and adverse foreign operations.
