Fox Factory Holding Corp. Reports Second Quarter Fiscal 2026 Financial Results
DULUTH, Georgia, August 6, 2026 - Fox Factory Holding Corp. (NASDAQ: FOXF) (“FOX” or the “Company”), a premium brand and a global leader in the design, engineering and manufacturing of performance-defining products and systems for customers worldwide, today reported financial results for the second fiscal quarter ended July 3, 2026.
Second Quarter Fiscal 2026 Highlights
•Net sales of $358.1 million, driven by continued strength in powersports, compared to $374.9 million in the prior year
•Net income of $4.1 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, compared to net income of $2.7 million, or $0.07 per diluted share in the prior year
•Adjusted net income of $15.5 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, compared to adjusted net income of $16.6 million, or $0.40 per diluted share in the prior year
•Adjusted EBITDA of $45.5 million, included approximately $2 million of IEEPA tariff refunds, and exceeded the high end of the guidance range
•Adjusted EBITDA margin (includes 50 bps of IEEPA tariff refunds) expanded 300 basis points sequentially to 12.7%, reflecting profit optimization execution across portfolio rationalization, supply chain, and operating expense management
•Profit optimization initiative delivered $25+ million of gross savings in the first half; operational improvements to drive second half margin despite tariff, commodity, and freight headwinds
•Reduced net debt by $9.1 million since 2025 fiscal year end and improved the cash conversion cycle by approximately 12 days year over year, further strengthening the balance sheet
Mike Dennison, FOX's Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Our second quarter results met or exceeded our guidance, with adjusted EBITDA margin expanding approximately 250 basis points sequentially, excluding tariff refunds. Our profit optimization actions remain on track to deliver approximately $50 million of gross cost savings this year, driven by continued execution across portfolio rationalization, supply chain, and cost discipline. A portion of what we captured in the first half was offset by higher input costs driven by geopolitical disruption and commodity inflation, including freight surcharges and fuel costs above original expectations. We are encouraged by signs of stabilization in powersports, bike, and aftermarket in general, while our upfit businesses continue to be constrained by limited availability of Ford F-150 chassis. Our team remains focused on sharpening the portfolio and becoming a more efficient organization that is positioned for growth and profitability.”
Mr. Dennison continued, "We expect to see continued strength in revenue through the back half driven by PVG with overall adjusted EBITDA margin tempered by continued macro headwinds and mix shifts. Our outlook assumes Ford F-150 chassis availability remains constrained through August and begins to recover in early September.”
Second Quarter 2026 Results
Net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 were $358.1 million, a decrease of 4.5%, as compared to net sales of $374.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2025. This decrease reflects a $12.9 million, or 9.4%, decrease in Specialty Sports Group (“SSG”) net sales, and a $4.6 million, or 4.0%, decrease in Aftermarket Applications Group (“AAG”) net sales, partially offset by a $0.7 million, or 0.6%, increase in Powered Vehicles Group (“PVG”) net sales. The decrease in SSG net sales from $137.2 million to $124.3 million primarily reflects original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”) order timing, and channel destocking in response to market-wide economic conditions. AAG net sales decreased from $114.2 million to $109.6 million. The Phoenix, Arizona operations divested in the first quarter contributed $5.5 million of net sales in the prior year period and none in the current period. Excluding those operations, AAG net sales increased approximately 0.9%, as growth in the segment was partially offset by limited availability of Ford F-150 chassis for our upfit businesses following the 2025 fires at Novelis’ Oswego, New York aluminum facility. The slight increase in PVG net sales from $123.5 million to $124.2 million is mainly attributed to strengthening demand in powersports, where net sales increased 22.5% compared to the prior year period, partially offset by lower net sales in our autos-related product lines.
Gross margin was 30.6% for the second quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to gross margin of 31.2% in the second quarter of fiscal 2025. The decrease in gross margin was primarily driven by shifts in our product line mix and higher external input costs, including tariffs, freight, commodities and fuel, partially offset by cost savings realization.
Total operating expenses were $92.2 million, or 25.7% of net sales, in the second quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to $98.5 million, or 26.3% of net sales, in the second quarter of fiscal 2025. Operating expenses decreased by $6.3 million, driven by our optimization initiative, including lower general and administrative expense and reduced discretionary spending. Adjusted operating expenses were $78.5 million, or 21.9% of net sales, in the second quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to $83.5 million, or 22.3% of net sales, in the second quarter of the prior fiscal year.
Income tax expense was $2.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to $2.8 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2025. In the second quarter of fiscal 2026, the difference between the Company’s effective tax rate of 36.0% and the 21% federal statutory rate was primarily attributable to unfavorable impact of discrete items in proportion to lower levels of pre-tax income.
Net income attributable to FOX stockholders in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 was $4.1 million, compared to net income attributable to FOX stockholders of $2.7 million in the second quarter of the prior fiscal year. Earnings per diluted share for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 was $0.10, compared to earnings per diluted share of $0.07 for the second quarter of fiscal 2025. Adjusted net income in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 was $15.5 million, or $0.37 of adjusted earnings per diluted share, compared to adjusted net income of $16.6 million, or $0.40 of adjusted earnings per diluted share, in the same period of the prior fiscal year.
Adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 was $45.5 million and includes an approximate $2 million benefit associated with IEEPA tariff refunds, compared to $49.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2025. Adjusted EBITDA margin in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 was 12.7% or approximately 12.2% excluding the tariff refunds, compared to 13.1% in the second quarter of fiscal 2025.
First Six Months Fiscal 2026 Results
Net sales for the six months ended July 3, 2026, were $726.8 million, a decrease of 0.4% compared to the six months ended July 4, 2025. This decrease reflects a $23.4 million or 9.1% decrease in SSG net sales and a $1.8 million or 0.8% decrease in AAG net sales, offset by a $22.0 million or 9.0% increase in PVG net sales. The decrease in SSG net sales from $258.2 million to $234.8 million is mainly due to OEM order timing and channel destocking in response to market-wide economic conditions. AAG net sales decreased from $226.1 million to $224.3 million. The divested Phoenix, Arizona operations contributed $12.5 million of net sales in the prior year period and $3.7 million in the current period. Excluding those operations, AAG net sales increased approximately 3.3%, with growth limited by constrained availability of Ford F-150 chassis for our upfit businesses. The increase in PVG net sales from $245.6 million to $267.6 million is primarily due to strengthening demand in powersports.
Gross margin was 29.7% in the six months ended July 3, 2026, compared to gross margin of 31.1% in the six months ended July 4, 2025. The decrease in gross margin is primarily driven by the net impact of tariffs and other external input costs, including freight, commodities and fuel, and by shifts in our product line mix, partially offset by cost savings realization.
Total operating expenses were $192.6 million, or 26.5% of net sales, in the six months ended July 3, 2026, compared to $458.7 million, or 62.8% of net sales in the six months ended July 4, 2025. Operating expenses decreased by $266.1 million primarily due to goodwill impairment of $262.1 million recorded in the first six months of fiscal 2025 and our optimization initiative. Adjusted operating expenses were $164.0 million in the six months ended July 3, 2026, compared to $167.9 million in the six months ended July 4, 2025.
Other expense, net for the six months ended July 3, 2026 was $9.0 million, an increase of $10.5 million from $1.5 million other income, net in the six months ended July 4, 2025. The increase in other expense, net was primarily attributable to a $10.6 million loss on divestiture of the Phoenix, Arizona AAG operations.
Net loss attributable to FOX stockholders in the six months ended July 3, 2026 was $10.9 million, compared to net loss attributable to FOX stockholders of $257.0 million in the six months ended July 4, 2025. Net loss per diluted share for the six months ended July 3, 2026 was $0.26, compared to net loss per diluted share of $6.15 for the six months ended July 4, 2025. Adjusted net income in the six months ended July 3, 2026 was $22.9 million, or $0.54 of adjusted earnings per diluted share, compared to $26.4 million, or $0.63 of adjusted earnings per diluted share in the prior fiscal year.
Adjusted EBITDA in the six months ended July 3, 2026 was $81.2 million and includes an approximate $2 million benefit associated with IEEPA tariff refunds, compared to $88.9 million in the six months ended July 4, 2025. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 11.2% or approximately 10.9% excluding the tariff refunds in the six months ended July 3, 2026, compared to 12.2% in the prior fiscal year.
Reconciliations to non-GAAP measures are provided at the end of this press release.
Balance Sheet Summary
As of July 3, 2026, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $61.3 million, compared to $58.0 million as of January 2, 2026. Inventory was $382.9 million as of July 3, 2026, compared to $388.6 million as of January 2, 2026. As of July 3, 2026, accounts receivable and accounts payable were $198.8 million and $134.9 million, respectively, compared to $190.7 million and $141.4 million, respectively, as of January 2, 2026. Prepaids and other current assets and other assets were $121.2 million as of July 3, 2026, compared to $108.4 million as of January 2, 2026. Accrued expenses were $84.4 million as of July 3, 2026, compared to $92.1 million as of January 2, 2026. Total debt was $667.7 million as of July 3, 2026, a decrease of $5.8 million, compared to $673.5 million as of January 2, 2026. Net debt, defined as total debt less cash and cash equivalents, was $606.4 million as of July 3, 2026, a decrease of $9.1 million compared to $615.5 million as of January 2, 2026.
In May, the Company proactively amended its credit agreement to provide additional financial flexibility, including the expansion of the net leverage covenant to 5.0x, compared to the prior 4.5x. As of July 3, 2026, the Company’s net leverage ratio calculated under the credit agreement was 3.7x in compliance with the applicable covenant levels.
The increase in cash and cash equivalents was mainly due to proceeds from the divestiture of our AAG operations in Phoenix, Arizona, including the collection of principal on the related note receivable, and proceeds from asset sales, partially offset by changes in working capital, debt repayments, capital expenditures, and debt modification costs. Inventory decreased by $5.7 million from January 2, 2026, driven by divested inventory, partially offset by an inventory build to support second half demand. Days inventory on hand improved to approximately 136 days from approximately 150 days in the prior year period. The increase in accounts receivable is due to timing of collections. The decrease in accounts payable reflects the timing of vendor payments. The increase in prepaids and other current assets is mainly attributable to receivables arising from the divestiture of our Phoenix, Arizona AAG operations.
Progress on Phase 2 Profit Optimization Initiative
Fox Factory continues to execute its multi-phase profit optimization strategy targeting approximately $50 million of gross realized savings in fiscal 2026. In the first six months of fiscal 2026, the Company captured more than $25 million of gross savings, a portion of which was offset by external cost increases, including tariffs, freight, commodities and fuel. The Company expects those external costs to remain elevated and has reflected an incremental amount beyond its original plan in its second half outlook. Phase 2 focuses on three strategic elements: business line rationalization to exit operations that are not accretive from a margin perspective; supply chain and materials cost productivity improvements; and reduction in operating expenses across sales, marketing, and G&A functions. The Company continues to evaluate strategic alternatives for other non-core assets to ensure alignment with profitability standards and strategic objectives.
Outlook
For the third quarter of fiscal 2026, the Company expects:
•Net sales in the range of $355 million to $380 million; and
•Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $46 million to $54 million.
For the fiscal year 2026, the Company is raising its net sales guidance and narrowing its adjusted EBITDA guidance:
•Net sales in the range of $1.42 billion to $1.47 billion; and
•Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $176 million to $196 million.
Guidance for the third quarter and the full fiscal year assumes that commodity, freight and fuel costs remain at or near current elevated levels for the balance of the year. In addition, guidance absorbs nearly $20 million of incremental input cost inflation beyond the Company’s original fiscal 2026 plan. Guidance also assumes that availability of Ford F-150 chassis for the Company’s upfit businesses remains constrained.
The Company may become eligible to recover as much as $8 million of additional tariff costs previously incurred under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) framework. Any such recoveries are subject to significant uncertainty regarding timing and amount, and a portion of any amounts recovered may be shared with the Company’s commercial counterparties. The Company has not included any potential recovery in its outlook and will recognize amounts only upon receipt.
A quantitative reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter and full fiscal year 2026 is not available without unreasonable efforts because management cannot predict, with sufficient certainty, all of the elements necessary to provide such a reconciliation. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could be material to future results.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to reporting financial measures in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States (“U.S.”), FOX includes in this press release certain non-GAAP financial measures consisting of “adjusted operating expense,” “adjusted operating expense margin”, “adjusted net income,” “adjusted earnings per share,” “adjusted EBITDA,” and “adjusted EBITDA margin,” all of which are non-GAAP financial measures. FOX defines adjusted operating expense as operating expense adjusted for amortization of purchased intangibles, goodwill impairment, litigation and settlement-related expenses, acquisition and integration-related expenses, organizational restructuring expenses, and certain strategic transformation costs. FOX defines adjusted operating expense margin as adjusted operating expense divided by net sales. FOX defines adjusted net income as net income (loss) attributable to FOX stockholders adjusted for amortization of purchased intangibles, goodwill impairment, litigation and settlement-related expenses, acquisition and integration-related expenses, organizational restructuring expenses, loss on divestiture, and strategic transformation costs, all net of applicable tax. Adjusted earnings per share is defined as adjusted net income divided by the weighted average number of basic or diluted shares of common stock outstanding during the period. FOX defines adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) adjusted for interest expense, net other expense, income taxes or tax benefits, amortization of purchased intangibles, goodwill impairment, depreciation, stock-based compensation, litigation and settlement related expenses, organizational restructuring expenses, acquisition and integration-related expenses, loss on divestiture, and strategic transformation costs that are more fully described in the tables included at the end of this press release. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales. These adjustments are more fully described in the tables included at the end of this press release.
FOX includes these non-GAAP financial measures to provide investors with additional insight on the Company’s operating performance and trends, as well as to supplement their understanding of the results of the Company’s core operations. In particular, the exclusion of certain items in calculating the non-GAAP financial measures consisting of adjusted operating expense, adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA (and accordingly, adjusted operating expense margin, adjusted earnings per diluted share and adjusted EBITDA margin) can provide a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of the Company’s core business. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, including the fact that such non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies because other companies may calculate adjusted operating expense, adjusted operating expense margin, adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per diluted share, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin differently than FOX does. For more information regarding these non-GAAP financial measures, see the tables included at the end of this press release.

Certain statements in this press release including earnings guidance may be deemed to be forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company intends that all such statements be subject to the “safe-harbor” provisions contained in those sections. Forward-looking statements generally relate to future events or the Company’s future financial or operating performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as “may,” “might,” “will,” “would,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “could,” “can,” “intend,” “target,” “project,” “contemplate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “likely,” “potential”, “remain” or “continue” or the negative of these words or other similar terms or expressions that concern the Company’s expectations, strategy, plans or intentions. Such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements with regard to expectations related to the future performance of FOX; the Company’s expected demand for its products; the Company’s execution on its organizational restructuring initiatives and strategy to improve operating efficiencies, which may include divestitures, sales, or related transactions involving one or more of the Company’s businesses or assets and other actions related to the Company’s strategic review of its portfolio; the Company’s expectation regarding its operating results and future growth prospects; the Company’s expected future sales and future adjusted earnings per diluted share; and any other statements in this press release that are not of a historical nature. Many important factors may cause the Company’s actual results, events or circumstances to differ materially from those discussed in any such forward-looking statements, including but not limited to: the Company’s decision and ability to market and execute potential strategic transactions, which depend on, among other factors, third-party interest, valuation considerations and regulatory requirements; the Company’s ability to maintain its suppliers for materials, component parts and product without significant supply chain disruptions; the Company’s ability to improve operating and supply chain efficiencies; the Company’s ability to enforce its intellectual property rights; the Company’s future financial performance, including its sales, cost of sales, gross profit or gross margin, operating expenses, ability to generate positive cash flow, ability to maintain profitability, and ability to remain in compliance with financial covenants; the Company’s ability to monitor the effects of new technological applications, such as artificial intelligence; the Company’s ability to protect against cybersecurity incidents and disruptions or failures of our information technology systems; the Company’s ability to adapt its business model to mitigate the impact of certain changes in tax laws, tariffs, and international trade policies, including regulations or orders related to the import and export of industry products;
