Management Commentary

“During the first fiscal quarter, the Company executed with discipline, delivering strong operational and financial results across all business segments. These results demonstrate our ability to generate consistent operational performance and advance our strategic priorities in a dynamic market environment,” commented CEO John Lindsay.

“Our NAS segment continued to hold its industry-leading position, supported by solid financial performance and strong execution. With a presence across all major U.S. basins, the team continued to deliver reliable, high‑quality solutions that support customer programs. We effectively managed basin‑level activity churn, including in the Permian, where we maintain leading market share by delivering reliable results and differentiated offerings.”

“Notably, our new FlexRoboticsTM Technology was successfully deployed on a rig for a Super Major in the Permian Basin, supporting the drilling of multiple pads and delivering strong, reliable rig-floor performance. We are seeing growing customer interest in adding additional units to the fleet. Also significant, NAS technology adoption continues to increase year‑over‑year, with deployment now occurring on nearly every active rig. As customers continue to recognize the efficiencies these technologies provide, we expect adoption to remain strong and further deepen alignment with our customers.”

“For our International Solutions segment, the first fiscal quarter marked continued progress in advancing our global strategy and bringing U.S. unconventional expertise to key international markets,” Lindsay said. “With rig reactivations underway in Saudi Arabia, we expect startups to be completed by mid‑2026. Discussions with national and international oil companies across our core regions remain encouraging, reinforcing our confidence in the value our drilling solutions deliver worldwide.”

“Our Offshore Solutions segment delivered stable and consistent performance in the first fiscal quarter. The business continues to generate consistent cash flows driven by low capital intensity, strong customer relationships, and activity across the Gulf of America, the Caspian Sea, Norway and UK North Sea, Africa, and Canada. With approximately 30% of the global platform operations and maintenance market, we remain encouraged by the segment’s outlook.”

Senior Vice President and CFO Kevin Vann added, “As we progress through fiscal 2026, our disciplined approach to capital deployment continues to support strong free cash flow and ongoing balance sheet improvement. We have repaid $260 million on the $400 million term loan and remain on track to retire the remaining balance ahead of schedule using free cash flow. This progress highlights our commitment to prudent capital allocation.”

Lindsay concluded, “We remain encouraged by the opportunities ahead through the remainder of 2026 and beyond. Our expanded global scale and the continued strengthening of our competitive position give me confidence in the path forward. In NAS, our differentiated solutions, super‑spec fleet investments, peer‑leading cost structure, and steady technology adoption provide meaningful durability. H&P is anchored by a strong safety culture and a customer‑focused approach, all driven by a workforce that is second to none in this industry. As we enter this new chapter of leadership, I am confident that Trey and his team are well equipped to continue delivering long-term term value for shareholders. We look forward to building on this momentum throughout the year.”

The Company also noted that, as previously announced, John Lindsay plans to retire in March, with a leadership transition underway and no change to the Company’s strategic direction or financial priorities.

All statements other than statements of historical facts included in this release, including, without limitation, outlook for fiscal 2026, the Company’s business strategy, future financial position, operations outlook, future cash flow, future use of generated cash flow, dividend amounts and timing, amounts of any future dividends, investments, active rig count projections, projected costs and plans, objectives of management for future operations, contract terms, financing and funding, debt reduction plans, capex spending and budgets, outlook for domestic and international markets, future commodity prices, and future customer activity and relationships are forward-looking statements.

Note Regarding Trademarks. Helmerich & Payne, Inc. owns or has rights to the use of trademarks, service marks and trade names that it uses in conjunction with the operation of its business.

(1) Adjusted net income, which is considered a non-GAAP metric, is defined as net income (loss), excluding the impact of ‘select items’ which management defines as certain items that do not reflect the ongoing performance of our core business operations. Adjusted net income is included as supplemental disclosure as management uses it to assess and understand current operational performance, especially in analyzing historical trends which are used in forecasting future period results. For this reason, we believe this measure will be useful information to investors. The presence of non-GAAP metrics is not intended to suggest that such measures should be considered as a substitute for certain GAAP metrics and, given that not all companies define adjusted net income the same way, this financial measure may not be comparable to similarly titled metrics disclosed by other companies. See Non-GAAP Measurements for a reconciliation of net income (loss) to adjusted net income.

(2) Direct margin, which is considered a non-GAAP metric, is defined as operating revenues (less reimbursements) less direct operating expenses (less reimbursements) and is included as a supplemental disclosure. We believe it is useful in assessing and understanding our current operational performance, especially in making comparisons over time. See Non-GAAP Measurements for a reconciliation of segment operating income (loss) to direct margin. Expected direct margin for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 is provided on a non-GAAP basis only because certain information necessary to calculate the most comparable GAAP measure is unavailable due to the uncertainty and inherent difficulty of predicting the occurrence and the future financial statement impact of certain items. Therefore, as a result of the uncertainty and variability of the nature and amount of future items and adjustments, which could be significant, we are unable to provide a reconciliation of expected direct margin to the most comparable GAAP measure without unreasonable effort.

(3) Adjusted EBITDA is considered to be a non-GAAP metric. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before taxes, depreciation and amortization, gains and losses on asset sales, other income and expense – which includes interest income and interest expense, and excludes the impact of ‘select items’ which management defines as certain items that do not reflect the ongoing performance of our core business operations. Adjusted EBITDA is included as supplemental disclosure as management uses it to assess and understand current operational performance, especially in analyzing historical trends which are used in forecasting future period results. For this reason, we believe this measure will be useful to information to investors. The presence of non-GAAP metrics is not intended to suggest that such measures should be considered as a substitute for certain GAAP metrics and, given that not all companies define Adjusted EBITDA the same way, this financial measure may not be comparable to similarly titled metrics disclosed by other companies. See Non-GAAP Measurements for a reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDA.

(4) Select items are considered non-GAAP metrics and are included as a supplemental disclosure as the Company believes identifying and excluding select items is useful in assessing and understanding current operational performance, especially in making comparisons over time involving previous and subsequent periods and/or forecasting future periods results. Select items are excluded as they are deemed to be outside the Company’s core business operations. See Non-GAAP Measurements.

(5) Does not include 24 rigs that have either suspended operations or have been notified to suspend operations in Saudi Arabia

Interim Financial Information

Prior to the three months ended March 31, 2025, foreign currency exchange gains and losses were presented in the operating costs and expense line items to which they relate, namely within Drilling services operating expenses, on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. To conform with the current period presentation, we reclassified amounts previously presented in separate line items within operating costs and expenses to the Foreign currency exchange gain (loss) line on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three months ended December 31, 2025. The impact of this change was not material to any period presented.

(1)

These operating metrics and financial data, including average active rigs, are provided to allow investors to analyze the various components of segment financial results in terms of activity, utilization and other key results. Management uses these metrics to analyze historical segment financial results and as the key inputs for forecasting and budgeting segment financial results.

(2)

Direct margin, which is considered a non-GAAP metric, is defined as operating revenues less direct operating expenses and is included as a supplemental disclosure because we believe it is useful in assessing and understanding our current operational performance, especially in making comparisons over time. See — Non-GAAP Measurements below for a reconciliation of segment operating income (loss) to direct margin.

(3)

Defined as the number of contractual days during the reporting period in which revenue was recognized from Company owned rigs. This metric excludes revenue days associated with leased rigs.

(4)

Active rigs generate revenue for the Company; accordingly, ‘average active rigs’ represents the average number of rigs generating revenue during the applicable time period. This metric is calculated by dividing revenue days by total days in the applicable period (i.e. 92 days for the three months ended December 31, 2025, September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024.)

(5)

Defined as the number of contractual days for owned and leased rigs with recognized revenue for during the period.

Segment operating income (loss) for all segments is a non-GAAP financial measure of the Company’s performance, as it excludes gain on reimbursement of drilling equipment, other gain (loss) on sale of assets, corporate selling, general and administrative costs, corporate depreciation, corporate acquisition transaction costs, corporate asset impairment charges, and corporate restructuring charges. The Company considers segment operating income (loss) to be an important supplemental measure of operating performance for presenting trends in the Company’s core businesses. This measure is used by the Company to facilitate period-to-period comparisons in operating performance of the Company’s reportable segments in the aggregate by eliminating items that affect comparability between periods. The Company believes that segment operating income (loss) is useful to investors because it provides a means to evaluate the operating performance of the segments and the Company on an ongoing basis using criteria that are used by our internal decision makers. Additionally, it highlights operating trends and aids analytical comparisons. However, segment operating income (loss) has limitations and should not be used as an alternative to operating income or loss, a performance measure determined in accordance with GAAP, as it excludes certain costs that may affect the Company’s operating performance in future periods.

The following table reconciles operating income (loss) per the information above to income (loss) before income taxes as reported on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations:

(**)The Company believes identifying and excluding select items is useful in assessing and understanding current operational performance, especially in making comparisons over time involving previous and subsequent periods and/or forecasting future period results. Select items are excluded as they are deemed to be outside of the Company’s core business operations.

NON-GAAP RECONCILIATION OF DIRECT MARGIN

Direct margin is considered a non-GAAP metric. We define “direct margin” as operating revenues (less reimbursements) less direct operating expenses (less reimbursements). Direct margin is included as a supplemental disclosure because we believe it is useful in assessing and understanding our current operational performance, especially in making comparisons over time. Direct margin is not a substitute for financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP and should therefore be considered only as supplemental to such GAAP financial measures.

The following table reconciles direct margin to segment operating income (loss), which we believe is the financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP that is most directly comparable to direct margin.

NON-GAAP RECONCILIATION OF ADJUSTED EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA and ‘Select Items’ are considered to be non-GAAP metrics. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before taxes, depreciation and amortization, gains and losses on asset sales, other income and expense – which includes interest income and interest expense, and excludes the impact of ‘select items’ which management defines as certain items that do not reflect the ongoing performance of our core business operations. These metrics are included as supplemental disclosures as management uses them to assess and understand current operational performance, especially in analyzing historical trends which are used in forecasting future period results. For this reason, we believe this measure will be useful to information to investors. The presence of non-GAAP metrics is not intended to suggest that such measures should be considered as a substitute for certain GAAP metrics and, given that not all companies define Adjusted EBITDA the same way, this financial measure may not be comparable to similarly titled metrics disclosed by other companies.

The following table reconciles adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss), which we believe is the financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP that is most directly comparable to direct margin.

LifeVantage Announces Financial Results for the Second Quarter of Fiscal 2026

Announces New $60 Million Share Repurchase Authorization

SALT LAKE CITY, Feb. 04, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — LifeVantage Corporation (Nasdaq: LFVN), a leading health and wellness company with products designed to activate optimal health processes at the cellular level, today reported financial results for its second fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2025.

Second
Quarter Fiscal
2026
Summary*:

  • Revenue was $48.9 million, a decrease of 27.8% from the prior year period. Revenue was up 2.9% sequentially from the first quarter.
  • Revenue in the Americas decreased 32.6%, and revenue in Asia/Pacific & Europe decreased 2.1%.
  • Net income per diluted share was $0.02, versus $0.19 per diluted share a year ago;
  • Adjusted earnings per diluted share was $0.15, compared to $0.22 a year ago; and
  • Adjusted EBITDA was $3.9 million compared to $6.5 million a year ago.

* All comparisons are on a year over year basis and compare the second quarter of fiscal 2026 to the second quarter of fiscal 2025, unless otherwise noted.

“The second quarter reflected challenging competitive dynamics in the weight loss market as we cycled the launch of our MindBody GLP-1 System™ in October 2024,” said Steve Fife, President and CEO of LifeVantage. “We acknowledge that our performance during the quarter did not meet your expectations or ours and we are redoubling our efforts to stabilize our GLP-1 business and make the other changes necessary to return to revenue growth. While the growth trajectory of MindBody may have changed, we remain committed to this proven, scientifically validated natural weight loss solution.”

“We continue to be very well positioned across the broader health and wellness ecosystem and are particularly excited about the momentum we are seeing in LoveBiome®, including several new products launching over the next couple quarters that will expand the portfolio into adjacent, high-growth categories. This summer and beyond, LifeVantage also plans to expand into new international markets, another key element of our overall growth strategy. With a strong balance and proven track record of returning capital to shareholders, we remain steadfast in our commitment to driving long-term shareholder value.”

Second
Quarter Fiscal
2026
Results

For the second quarter ended December 31, 2025, the Company reported revenue of $48.9 million, a 27.8% decrease over the second quarter of fiscal 2025. Excluding the impact of foreign currency fluctuations, second quarter revenue decreased 28.1%. Revenue in the Americas region for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 decreased 32.6%. The decrease in revenue was primarily driven by declines in sales of the Company’s MindBody GLP-1 System as we cycled the launch of the product in October 2024, partially offset by sales of the LoveBiome product line, which the Company acquired in October 2025. Revenue in the Asia/Pacific & Europe region decreased 2.1%; on a constant currency basis, revenue in the Asia/Pacific & Europe region decreased 3.7%.

Gross profit for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 was $36.2 million, or 74.0% of revenue, compared to $54.6 million, or 80.5% of revenue, for the same period in fiscal 2025. The decrease in gross profit as a percentage of revenue was primarily due to an allowance for inventory obsolescence of $2.4 million related to the MindBody GLP-1 System, along with increases in shipping and warehouse related expenses. Adjusted for the allowance for inventory obsolescence, non-GAAP gross profit was $38.6 million, or 78.8% of revenue.

Commissions and incentives expense for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 was $19.9 million, or 40.7% of revenue, compared to $32.5 million, or 48.0% of revenue, for the same period in fiscal 2025. The decrease in commissions and incentives expenses as a percentage of revenue compared to the prior year periods is primarily due to the timing and magnitude of promotional and incentive programs and changes to the mix of customers and independent consultants in our overall Active Accounts.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 was $15.8 million, or 32.3% of revenue, compared to $18.6 million, or 27.5% of revenue, for the same period in fiscal 2025. The increase in SG&A expenses as a percentage of revenue was primarily due to the overall decrease in sales volume.

Operating income for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 was $0.5 million compared to $3.4 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2025. Adjusted non-GAAP operating income for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 was $2.6 million compared to adjusted non-GAAP operating income of $3.9 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2025.

Net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 was $0.3 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, compared to $2.6 million, or $0.19 per diluted share for the second quarter of fiscal 2025. Adjusted non-GAAP net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 was $1.9 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, compared to adjusted non-GAAP income of $3.0 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, for the second quarter of fiscal 2025.

Adjusted EBITDA was $3.9 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2026, versus $6.5 million for the comparable period in fiscal 2025.

Balance Sheet & Liquidity

The Company generated $0.5 million of cash from operations during the first six months of fiscal 2026 compared to $8.6 million in the same period in fiscal 2025. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2025 were $10.2 million, compared to $20.2 million at June 30, 2025, and there was no debt outstanding.

Share Repurchase

During the first six months of fiscal 2026, the Company repurchased 44,000 of its common shares for an aggregate price of approximately $0.6 million. In January 2026, the Company’s Board of Directors also approved a new $60 million share repurchase program. The new program, which replaces the Company’s previous share repurchase program in its entirety, authorizes the Company to repurchase shares in both open market and private transactions through December 31, 2027 under the terms of the program.

Dividend Announcement

Today the Company announced the declaration of a cash dividend of $0.045 per common share. The dividend will be paid on March 16, 2026 to all stockholders of record at the close of business on March 2, 2026.

Fiscal Year 2026 Guidance

The Company anticipates fiscal 2026 revenue in the range of $185 million to $200 million, adjusted EBITDA of $15 million to $19 million, and adjusted earnings per share in the range of $0.60 to $0.80. The Company expects a full year tax rate of approximately 22% to 24%. This guidance reflects the current trends in the business and the Company’s strategic initiatives, including international expansion and new product launches. The Company’s guidance for adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA and adjusted non-GAAP earnings per diluted share excludes any non-operating or non-recurring expenses that may materialize during fiscal 2026.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements

This document contains forward-looking statements made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Words and expressions reflecting optimism, satisfaction or disappointment with current prospects, as well as words such as “believe,” “will,” “hopes,” “intends,” “estimates,” “expects,” “projects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “look forward to,” “goal,” “may be,” and variations thereof, identify forward-looking statements, but their absence does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. The declaration and/or payment of a dividend during any quarter provides no assurance as to future dividends, and the timing and amount of future dividends, if any, could vary significantly in comparison both to past dividends and to current expectations. Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, expected financial performance, including revenue margins, statements we make regarding executing against and the benefits of our key initiatives, future growth, including geographic and product expansion, and expected dividend payments in future quarters. Such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance and the Company’s actual results could differ materially from those contained in such statements. These forward-looking statements are based on the Company’s current expectations and beliefs concerning future events affecting the Company and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that may cause the Company’s actual results or outcomes to be materially different from those anticipated and discussed herein. These risks and uncertainties include, among others, further deterioration to the global economic and operating environments, as well as those discussed in greater detail in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q under the caption “Risk Factors,” and in other documents filed by the Company from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The Company cautions investors not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements contained in this document. All forward-looking statements are based on information currently available to the Company on the date hereof, and the Company undertakes no obligation to revise or update these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this document, except as required by law.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We define Non-GAAP EBITDA as earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization and Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock compensation expense, other income, net, and certain other adjustments. Non-GAAP EBITDA and Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. We define Non-GAAP Net Income as GAAP net income less certain tax adjusted non-recurring one-time expenses incurred during the period and Non-GAAP Earnings per Share as Non-GAAP Net Income divided by weighted-average shares outstanding.

We are presenting Non-GAAP EBITDA, Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP Earnings Per Share because management believes that they provide additional ways to view our operations when considered with both our GAAP results and the reconciliation to net income, which we believe provides a more complete understanding of our business than could be obtained absent this disclosure. Non-GAAP EBITDA, Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP Earnings Per Share are presented solely as supplemental disclosure because: (i) we believe these measures are a useful tool for investors to assess the operating performance of the business without the effect of these items; (ii) we believe that investors will find this data useful in assessing shareholder value; and (iii) we use Non-GAAP EBITDA, Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP Earnings Per Share internally as benchmarks to evaluate our operating performance or compare our performance to that of our competitors. The use of Non-GAAP EBITDA, Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP Earnings per Share has limitations and you should not consider these measures in isolation from or as an alternative to the relevant GAAP measure of net income prepared in accordance with GAAP, or as a measure of profitability or liquidity.

The tables set forth below present reconciliations of Non-GAAP EBITDA, Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP Earnings per Share, which are non-GAAP financial measures to Net Income and Earnings per Share, our most directly comparable financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP.

CEO Comment

John Farahi, Co-Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Monarch, commented: “With all-time high fourth quarter financial results, we delivered another record year in 2025. Fourth quarter net revenue and adjusted EBITDA increased year-over-year by 4.1% and 9.6%, respectively. Fourth quarter adjusted EBITDA margin increased by approximately 185 basis points from 35.1% in the fourth quarter of 2024 to a record fourth quarter margin of 37.0%. Full year 2025 adjusted EBITDA margin increased by approximately 197 basis points from 34.5% in 2024 to a record 36.5% in 2025.

“In the fourth quarter and full year, we increased market share year-over-year at both Atlantis and Monarch Black Hawk. We remain committed to the ongoing capital investment and enhancement at both properties and setting the standard for luxury resorts in each market. We continue to believe that we have opportunities to increase revenue in both markets, while deploying technology to reduce operating costs.

”In the fourth quarter of 2025, we purchased, in open market transactions, 445,715 shares of Monarch common stock for $41.0 million. For the full year, we have purchased 797,279 shares of common stock for $72.2 million.”

Summary of 2025 Fourth Quarter Operating Results

In the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company generated net revenues of $140.0 million compared to $134.5 million in the corresponding prior-year period. Casino revenue increased 5.3%, food and beverage (“F&B”) revenue increased 4.8% and hotel revenues decreased 1.9%, all compared to the same prior-year period.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expense for the fourth quarter of 2025 was $27.9 million compared to $27.8 million in the corresponding prior-year period. As a percentage of net revenue, SG&A expense decreased to 19.9% from 20.7% in the corresponding prior-year period. Casino operating expense as a percentage of casino revenue decreased to 35.8% during the fourth quarter of 2025 from 36.8% in the corresponding prior-year period, primarily due to improved labor management and operational efficiencies. During the fourth quarter of 2025, F&B operating expense as a percentage of F&B revenue decreased to 70.0% from 73.4% in the corresponding prior-year period due to labor and cost of sale efficiencies, as well as increases in F&B revenue per cover. Hotel operating expense as a percentage of hotel revenue increased to 36.2% in the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to 34.8% in the corresponding prior-year period primarily due to lower average cash rates at Monarch Black Hawk.

Net income and diluted EPS for the fourth quarter of 2025 increased 445% and 468%, respectively, reflecting the impact of the accrued loss in 2024 related to the Colorado court’s judgment on the litigation between the Company and the Monarch Black Hawk’s general contractor, PCL Construction Services, Inc., accrued interest expense in 2025 relating to the same judgment and year-over-year increase in legal and consulting costs relating to the same litigation and the appeal of the related judgment. In addition, in the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company accrued $3.9 million for other litigation expenses.

In the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company generated consolidated Adjusted EBITDA of $51.8 million, which represents a $4.5 million, or 9.6%, increase, compared to the corresponding prior-year period. In the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company generated consolidated Adjusted EBITDA of $199.1 million, representing $18.7 million, or 10.4%, increase, compared to the prior-year.

Credit Facility and Liquidity

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $96.5 million and no borrowings under its credit facility.

Capital expenditures of $3.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 were funded from operating cash flow and primarily relate to ongoing maintenance capital expenditures at the Company’s two properties.

On December 15, 2025, the Company paid a cash dividend of $0.30 per share to stockholders of record as of December 1, 2025. The cash dividend was also funded from operating cash flow.

In the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company purchased, under its repurchase plan on the open market, 445,715 shares of its common stock for an aggregate amount of $41.0 million. The purchases were funded from operating cash flow. As of December 31, 2025, the Company has remaining authorization to purchase up to 1,152,761 additional shares under the repurchase plan.

Monarch believes its strong balance sheet and free cash flow favorably position the Company to continue investing in its properties and returning capital to stockholders through cash dividends and share repurchases. The Company continuously evaluates potential M&A transaction opportunities, which, if executed, could drive additional long-term value for stockholders.

Quarterly Dividend Declaration

Today, the Company announced a cash dividend of $0.30 per share of its outstanding common stock. The dividend is payable on March 16, 2026 to stockholders of record as of March 2, 2026. This cash dividend is part of the previously announced annual cash dividend of $1.20 per share payable in quarterly payments and subject to quarterly review and evaluation by the Company’s Board of Directors.

This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260204131823/en/

“We delivered a solid start to the fiscal year, with disciplined execution across the business, particularly when measured against a strong prior-year first quarter,” said Niko Lahanas, CEO of Central Garden & Pet. “First quarter results also reflected shipment timing, with volumes shifting into the second quarter. With Cost and Simplicity firmly embedded in our operations, we are sharpening our focus on growth and innovation across the portfolio, recognizing that results will build over time. We remain encouraged by the momentum in the business and confident in our outlook for the year as we advance our Central to Home strategy.”

Fiscal 2026 First Quarter Financial Results

(All comparisons versus Q1 FY 2025)

Net sales were $617 million compared with $656 million.

Gross margin expanded by 110 basis points to 30.9%, compared with 29.8% driven by improved productivity. Non-GAAP gross margin was 30.8%.

Operating income totaled $17 million, compared with $28 million. Non-GAAP operating income was $24 million. Operating margin moved to 2.7% from 4.3%, while non-GAAP operating margin was 3.9%.

Net income was $7 million compared with $14 million. Non-GAAP net income was $13 million. GAAP diluted earnings per share were $0.11 compared with $0.21, while non-GAAP diluted earnings per share were $0.21.

Adjusted EBITDA was $50 million compared with $55 million.

Pet Segment First Quarter Fiscal 2026 Results

(All comparisons versus Q1 FY 2025)

Net sales in the Pet segment were $416 million compared with $427 million, primarily reflecting portfolio optimization efforts, including the rationalization of lower-margin categories and the closure of Central’s U.K. operations, as well as shipment timing.

Operating income was $50 million compared with $51 million. Non-GAAP operating income was also $50 million. Operating margin was 12.0%, in line with the prior year, and non-GAAP operating margin was 12.1%.

Adjusted EBITDA was $60 million compared with $61 million.

Garden Segment First Quarter Fiscal 2026 Results

(All comparisons versus Q1 FY 2025)

Net sales in the Garden segment were $202 million, compared with $229 million, reflecting shipment timing, with volumes shifting into the second quarter, and portfolio optimization efforts, including the rationalization of select Live Plants categories.

Operating loss was $10 million, compared with operating income of $2 million, and non-GAAP operating loss was $2 million. Operating margin moved to (4.8)% from 1.1%, while non-GAAP operating margin was (1.2)%.

Cash and cash equivalents at December 27, 2025, totaled $721 million, compared with $618 million.

Cash used by operations was $70 million, compared with $69 million.

Total debt was $1.2 billion, consistent with the prior year. Gross leverage, calculated using the definitions for Indebtedness and EBITDA in Central’s credit agreement, ended the first quarter at 2.9x, consistent with the prior year and below the target range of 3.0 to 3.5x. Central had no borrowings outstanding under its credit facility at quarter end.

Central repurchased 660,000 shares for $18.5 million during the quarter. As of December 27, 2025, $28 million remained available for future stock repurchases.

Cost and Simplicity Agenda

Central made further progress in its multi-year Cost and Simplicity agenda, a broad-based effort spanning sourcing, manufacturing, distribution, portfolio optimization, and overhead efficiency. These actions are streamlining operations, reducing complexity, and driving margin improvement across the organization.

During the quarter, non-GAAP adjustments totaled $8 million, primarily related to facility closures in the Garden segment, with costs largely associated with lease exit and severance expenses.

Fiscal 2026 Guidance

Central continues to expect fiscal 2026 non-GAAP diluted EPS of $2.70 or better, reflecting continued margin discipline, cost efficiency initiatives, and portfolio optimization.

The outlook incorporates current assumptions regarding a competitive and promotional retail environment, value-oriented consumer behavior, current tariffs, and inflation in select commodity categories, within a dynamic macroeconomic and geopolitical environment.

Capital expenditures are projected to be approximately $50 million to $60 million, focused on maintenance, productivity initiatives, and targeted growth investments across both segments.

This outlook excludes any potential impacts from acquisitions, divestitures, or restructuring activities that may occur during fiscal 2026, including projects under Central’s Cost and Simplicity agenda.

Conference Call

Central will hold a conference call today at 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time (1:30 p.m. Pacific Time), hosted by CEO Niko Lahanas and CFO Brad Smith, to discuss these results and to provide a general business update. The conference call and related materials can be accessed at http://ir.central.com.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We report our financial results in accordance with GAAP. However, to supplement the financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP, we use non-GAAP financial measures including non-GAAP net income and diluted net income per share, non-GAAP operating income, and adjusted EBITDA. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures that exclude the impact of specific items (described below) in making financial, operating and planning decisions and in evaluating our performance. Also, Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures may be useful to investors in their assessment of our ongoing operating performance and provide additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results in prior operating periods. While Management believes that non-GAAP measures are useful supplemental information, such adjusted results are not intended to replace our GAAP financial results and should be read in conjunction with those GAAP results.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined by us as income before income tax, net other expense, net interest expense and depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation expense (or operating income plus depreciation and amortization expense and stock-based compensation expense). Adjusted EBITDA further excludes charges related to facility closures. We present adjusted EBITDA because we believe that adjusted EBITDA is a useful supplemental measure in evaluating the cash flows and performance of our business and provides greater transparency into our results of operations. Adjusted EBITDA is used by our management to perform such evaluations. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for cash flow from operations, income from operations or other income statement measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. We believe that adjusted EBITDA is frequently used by investors, securities analysts and other interested parties in their evaluation of companies, many of which present adjusted EBITDA when reporting their results. Other companies may calculate adjusted EBITDA differently and it may not be comparable.

The reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP are shown in the tables below.

Non-GAAP financial measures reflect adjustments based on the following items:

  • Facility closures and business exit: we have excluded charges related to the closure of distribution and manufacturing facilities and our decisions to exit businesses as they represent infrequent transactions that impact the comparability between operating periods. We believe these exclusions supplement the GAAP information with a measure that may be useful to investors in assessing the sustainability of our operating performance.
  • Tax impact: adjustment represents the impact of the tax effect of the pre-tax non-GAAP adjustments excluded from non-GAAP net income. The tax impact of the non-GAAP adjustments is calculated based on the consolidated effective tax rate on a GAAP basis, applied to the non-GAAP adjustments.

From time to time in the future, there may be other items that we may exclude if we believe that doing so is consistent with the goal of providing useful supplemental information to investors and management.

We have not provided a reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to the corresponding GAAP measures on a forward-looking basis as we cannot do so without unreasonable efforts due to the potential variability and limited visibility of excluded items; these excluded items may include facility closures and exit costs, impairment charges and restructuring costs, among others.

  1. During the first quarter of fiscal 2026, we recognized incremental expense of $7.7 million in the consolidated statement of operations, $7.2 million in our Garden segment related to the closure of three distribution centers in fiscal 2025 and 2024, and an incremental $0.5 million in our Pet segment related to the closure of a sales and logistics facility in Pennsylvania.
