The Lovesac Company Reports Second Quarter Fiscal 2027 Financial Results

Q2 Net Sales Increased to $161.2M
Record Product Launches On Track for Second Half FY27

STAMFORD, Conn., Sept. 10, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Lovesac Company (Nasdaq: LOVE) (“Lovesac” or the “Company”), the Designed for Life home and technology brand best known for its Sactionals, The World's Most Adaptable Couch, today announced financial results for the second quarter of fiscal 2027, which ended August 2, 2026.

Shawn David Nelson, Chief Executive Officer, stated, “Second quarter results reflected a record Q2 performance and came in within our guidance range against a choppy category backdrop. We continued to do what Lovesac has done throughout this cycle: execute with discipline, build the brand, and invest in innovation to drive long-term results. The high end of our business remained a clear source of strength, with resilience building as customers configure larger setups and add value enhancers like Reclining Seat, Lovesoft and Storage. While the environment remains dynamic, we are appropriately measured in our outlook for the balance of the year. We enter the back half in a position of real financial strength, with no debt and a strong cash position. In addition, we are underway with our most prolific year of new product introductions – a roadmap we believe will build through the second half and meaningfully strengthen our position entering fiscal 2028.”

¹ Omni-channel Comparable Net Sales includes sales at all retail locations and online, open greater than 12 months (including remodels and relocations) and excludes closed showrooms.

Highlights for the Quarter Ended August 2, 2026:

Net sales increased $0.7 million, or 0.4%, in the second quarter of fiscal 2027 compared to the prior year period primarily driven by 14 net new showrooms, partially offset by a 1.9% decrease in omni-channel comparable net sales and the closure of the Company's Best Buy shop-in-shop locations. During the second quarter of fiscal 2027, we opened 5 additional showrooms and closed 2 showrooms.

Gross profit increased $19.7 million, or 21.7% in the second quarter of fiscal 2027 compared to the prior year period. Gross margin increased 1,200 basis points to 68.4% of net sales in the thirteen weeks ended August 2, 2026 from 56.4% of net sales in the prior year period. Gross margin increased primarily due to recoveries of IEEPA tariffs, which contributed 1,240 basis points, and a 250 basis point improvement in product margin driven primarily by price increases, partially offset by higher promotional discounting. These favorable impacts were partially offset by increases of 160 basis points in inbound transportation and tariff costs and 130 basis points in outbound transportation and warehousing costs. Excluding IEEPA tariff recoveries, gross margin in the second quarter of fiscal 2027 was 56.0%, representing a 40 basis point reduction in gross margin compare to the prior year period.

SG&A expense increased $0.2 million, or 0.3%, in the second quarter of fiscal 2027 compared to the prior year period primarily due to increases in payroll associated with severance and higher incentive compensation and other overhead costs, partially offset by impairment charges related to the Best Buy partnership termination that were recognized in the prior year period and a decrease in equity-based compensation.

Advertising and marketing expense decreased $0.7 million, or 2.9% in the second quarter of fiscal 2027 compared to the prior year period, primarily due to the strategic timing of marketing investments and continued emphasis on efficiency.

Operating income was $10.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2027 compared to operating loss of $8.8 million in the prior year period. Operating margin was 6.9% of net sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2027 compared to (5.5)% of net sales in the prior year period.

Net income was $7.4 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2027 or $0.51 net income per diluted share compared to net loss of $6.7 million or $(0.45) net loss per diluted share in the prior year period. Net income per diluted share in the second quarter of fiscal 2027 includes $0.86 of net benefit from tariff refunds. During the second quarter of fiscal 2027, the Company recorded an income tax expense of $4.7 million, compared to an income tax benefit of $2.1 million in the prior year period. The change in the tax provision was primarily attributable to the Company's generation of pre-tax income in the current quarter compared to a pre-tax loss in the prior-year period, and an increase in the effective tax rate.

Highlights for the Year-to-date Period Ended August 2, 2026:

Net sales increased $0.5 million, or 0.2%, in the year-to-date period ended August 2, 2026 compared to the prior year period primarily driven by the net addition of 14 new showrooms, partially offset by the closure of the Company's Best Buy shop-in-shop locations and a 1.3% decrease in omni-channel comparable net sales.

Gross profit increased $17.3 million, or 10.5%, in the year-to-date period ended August 2, 2026 compared to the prior year period. Gross margin increased 570 basis points to 60.9% of net sales in the twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 2026 from 55.2% of net sales in the prior year period. Gross margin increased primarily due to recoveries of IEEPA tariffs, which contributed 670 basis points, and a 280 basis point improvement in product margin driven primarily by price increases, partially offset by higher promotional discounting. These favorable impacts were partially offset by increases of 260 basis points in inbound transportation and tariff costs and 120 basis points in outbound transportation and warehousing costs. Excluding IEEPA tariff recoveries, gross margin in the twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 2026 was 54.2%, representing a 100 basis point reduction in gross margin compared to the prior year period.

SG&A expense increased $1.7 million, or 1.2%, in the year-to-date period ended August 2, 2026 compared to the prior year period primarily due to increases in payroll associated with severance and higher incentive compensation, new product innovation costs, and other overhead expenses, partially offset by impairment charges related to the Best Buy partnership termination that were recognized in the prior year period, and a decrease in equity-based compensation.

Advertising and marketing expense decreased $2.7 million, or 6.4% in the year-to-date period ended August 2, 2026 compared to the prior year period primarily due to the strategic timing of marketing investments and continued emphasis on efficiency.

Operating loss was $6.4 million in the year-to-date period ended August 2, 2026 compared to $23.8 million in the prior year period. Operating margin was (2.1)% of net sales in the year-to-date period ended August 2, 2026 compared to (8.0)% of net sales in the prior year period.

Net loss was $3.7 million in the year-to-date period ended August 2, 2026 or $(0.25) net loss per diluted share compared to $17.5 million or $(1.19) net loss per diluted share in the prior year period. Net loss per diluted share in the year-to-date period ended August 2, 2026 includes $0.86 of net benefit from tariff refunds. During the year-to-date period ended August 2, 2026, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $0.9 million, compared to $5.9 million for the prior year period. The change in benefit was primarily driven by lower pre-tax loss and a decrease in the effective tax rate.

Other Financial Highlights as of August 2, 2026:

The cash and cash equivalents balance as of August 2, 2026 was $68.8 million as compared to $34.2 million as of August 3, 2025. There was no balance on the Company’s line of credit as of August 2, 2026 and August 3, 2025. The Company’s availability under the line of credit was $34.0 million and $36.0 million as of August 2, 2026 and August 3, 2025, respectively.

Total merchandise inventory was $130.2 million as of August 2, 2026 as compared to $124.0 million as of August 3, 2025 primarily related to a planned stock inventory increase of $7.2 million, partially offset by a decrease in freight capitalization of $0.5 million.

Non-GAAP Information:

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as a non-GAAP financial measure by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) that is a supplemental measure of financial performance not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. We define “Adjusted EBITDA” as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted for the impact of certain non-cash and other items that we do not consider in our evaluation of ongoing operating performance. These items include management fees, equity-based compensation expense, write-offs of property and equipment, deferred rent, financing expenses and certain other charges and gains that we do not believe reflect our underlying business performance, such as refunds collected related to IEEPA tariffs. We have reconciled this non-GAAP financial measure with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure within the schedules attached hereto. Statements regarding our expectations as to fiscal 2027 Adjusted EBITDA do not include certain charges and costs. These items include equity-based compensation expense and certain other charges and gains that we do not believe reflect our underlying business performance. We are not able to provide a reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial guidance to the corresponding GAAP measures without unreasonable effort because of the uncertainty and variability of the nature and amount of these future charges and costs. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing of certain events that have not yet occurred and are out of the Company’s control.

We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures not only provide management with comparable financial data for internal financial analysis but also provide meaningful supplemental information to investors. Specifically, these non-GAAP financial measures allow investors to better understand the performance of our business, facilitate a more meaningful comparison of our actual results on a period-over-period basis and provide for a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. We have provided this information as a means to evaluate the results of our ongoing operations alongside GAAP measures such as gross profit, operating income (loss) and net income (loss). Other companies in our industry may calculate these items differently than we do. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered as a substitute for the most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, such as net income (loss) or net income (loss) per share as a measure of financial performance, cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and investors should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP.
