Q2 2026 earnings summary
3 Feb, 2026Executive summary
Achieved record Q2 FY2026 revenue of $1,042.2 million, up 11% year-over-year, with 4% organic constant-currency growth; all segments contributed to growth.
Adjusted EBITDA grew by $6.6 million to $138.8 million, while net income declined to $49.5 million, mainly due to lower unrealized gains on currency hedges.
Raised full-year FY2026 guidance for revenue, adjusted EBITDA, and free cash flow, and reaffirmed FY2028 targets of at least $600 million EBITDA, $200 million net income, and net leverage below 2.0x.
Strategic focus on elevated products, manufacturing efficiencies, and technology-driven cost reductions is driving higher customer lifetime value and operational leverage.
Cross-segment technology and fulfillment initiatives are accelerating new product introductions and cost efficiencies.
Financial highlights
Q2 FY2026 revenue grew 11% to $1,042.2 million; gross profit increased 8% to $487.7 million.
Adjusted EBITDA for Q2 was $138.8 million, up 5% year-over-year; adjusted free cash flow was $124 million, down year-over-year due to lower net working capital inflows and higher CapEx.
Net leverage at quarter-end was just below 3.0x trailing twelve months EBITDA, down sequentially despite share repurchases.
Gross margin declined 110 bps year-over-year, mainly due to tariff impacts at National Pen.
Cash and cash equivalents stood at $258 million, with a $250 million undrawn credit facility.
Outlook and guidance
FY2026 guidance raised: revenue growth 7%-8% reported, 3%-4% organic constant-currency, net income at least $79 million, adjusted EBITDA at least $460 million, and adjusted free cash flow about $145 million.
FY2028 targets reaffirmed: at least $200 million net income, $600 million adjusted EBITDA, and ~45% EBITDA-to-free-cash-flow conversion.
Net leverage expected to decrease slightly by end of FY2026 and to exit FY2028 below 2.0x.
Management expects continued growth in revenue and adjusted EBITDA, supported by investments in technology and production capacity.
Guidance incorporates ongoing macroeconomic and trade risks, including tariffs and supply chain volatility.
