MANCHESTER, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Bob’s Discount Furniture, Inc. (NYSE:BOBS) (“We”, “our”, the “Company”, “Bob’s Discount Furniture” or “Bob’s”) today announced financial results for the second fiscal quarter ended June 28, 2026.

"Our strong second quarter results demonstrate the resilience of Bob’s business model and the effectiveness of our strategy in a demanding retail environment.

By remaining disciplined in our investments and focused on delivering exceptional value and a differentiated experience to our customers, we are well positioned to capitalize on the significant growth opportunities ahead."

Second Quarter of Fiscal Year 2026

• Net revenue of $619.6 million increased 8.8% from $569.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2025 driven by new stores and comparable sales growth.
• The Company opened 4 new stores and ended the quarter with 218 stores in 27 states.
• Comparable sales growth of 2.3% was driven by higher average order value and conversion, partially offset by lower in-store traffic.
• The Company received approval for $45.1 million in International Emergency Economic Powers Act (“IEEPA”) tariff refunds in the second quarter of fiscal year 2026. Of this amount, the Company recognized $37.9 million of tariff refunds in cost of sales related to inventory previously sold, $5.7 million as a reduction to inventory on hand, and $1.5 million in interest income. At June 28, 2026, we had $41.9 million in IEEPA tariff refund receivables, which was received subsequent to fiscal quarter end.
• Gross profit increased 20.7% to $319.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2026, which is inclusive of $37.9 million in IEEPA tariff refunds discussed above, resulting in gross margin of 51.5%. Excluding the IEEPA tariff refunds, adjusted gross margin* decreased to 45.4% compared to 46.4% in the prior year period due to unusually favorable freight rates in the prior year, partially offset by favorable product mix shift into the “Better” and “Best” product categories relative to historical levels, and higher protection plan and delivery margins.
• Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) increased 9.3% to $235.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2026 due to payroll-related expenses for new stores, higher occupancy costs associated with new and existing stores and an increase in marketing spend due to greenfield store expansion. SG&A as a percentage of revenue increased slightly to 37.9% compared to 37.7% in the prior year period due to incremental marketing, and higher payroll and occupancy costs associated with new stores and greenfield market expansion, substantially offset by efficiencies at existing stores.
• Net income of $57.8 million compared to $35.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2025. Adjusted net income* was $27.8 million compared to $32.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2025.
• Diluted net income per share of $0.43 compared to $0.31 in the second quarter of fiscal year 2025. Adjusted diluted net income per share* was $0.20 compared to $0.29 in the second quarter of fiscal year 2025.
• Adjusted EBITDA* of $60.8 million or 9.8% compared to $62.8 million or 11.0% in the second quarter of fiscal year 2025.

*See Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures below for further information. All Non-GAAP Financial Measure exclude IEEPA tariff refunds, and related interest income as applicable.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

• Total liquidity of $176.6 million, comprised of cash and cash equivalents of $32.0 million and available borrowing capacity of $144.6 million at June 28, 2026. Subsequent to quarter end, we received $41.9 million in IEEPA tariff refunds further strengthening our liquidity.
• Inventories were $345.9 million as of the end of the second quarter of fiscal year 2026, a decrease of 1.3% compared to year end primarily related to $5.7 million in IEEPA tariff refunds recorded as a reduction of inventory in the period.
• Net cash provided by operating activities was $93.1 million in the year-to-date period, an increase of $57.0 million compared to the prior year, primarily driven by the timing of payments on inventory purchases.
• Investments in capital expenditures, net of tenant allowances of $47.3 million in the year-to-date period was primarily associated with our new store program and early development of a new distribution center in Georgia.

Recent Developments

The Company has reaffirmed its top- and bottom-line guidance for full fiscal year 2026 financial operating results, presented in the table below. Within our outlook, net income now reflects the tariff refund received in the second quarter, whereas adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income do not, and we now expect pre-opening expenses of approximately $26 million compared to our prior expectation of $23-$24 million. Fiscal year 2026 includes 53 weeks. The “53rd week” is expected to deliver $40.0 million in net revenues, $3.5 million in net income and $5.0 million in adjusted EBITDA.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to the results provided in accordance with U.S. GAAP, this earnings release and related tables include adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted diluted net income per share, which present operating results on an adjusted basis. We define adjusted gross profit as gross profit adjusted to eliminate the impact of certain items that we do not consider indicative of our core operating performance and adjusted gross margin as adjusted gross profit as a percentage of net sales. We define adjusted net income as net income adjusted to eliminate the impact of certain items that we do not consider indicative of our core operating performance and the tax effect related to those items. We define adjusted diluted net income per share as adjusted net income divided by weighted average shares outstanding. We define adjusted EBITDA as net income before interest expense, interest income, income tax expense/(benefit), and depreciation and amortization, adjusted for items that are not indicative of the operating performance of the business. We believe that excluding certain items from our GAAP results allows management to better understand our financial performance from period to period. Moreover, we believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide our stakeholders with useful information to help them evaluate our operating results by facilitating an enhanced understanding of our operating performance and enabling them to make more meaningful period-to-period comparisons. We use these non-GAAP measures to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies, to make budgeting decisions, to evaluate our performance in connection with compensation decisions and to compare our performance against that of peer companies using similar measures. However, our inclusion of these adjusted measures should not be construed as an indication that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or infrequent items or that the items for which we have made adjustments are unusual or infrequent or will not recur. These non-U.S. GAAP measures are not a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, the presentations of these measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and can differ significantly from company to company. These measures should only be read together with the corresponding U.S. GAAP measures. Please refer to the reconciliations of adjusted gross profit to gross profit, adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA to net income and adjusted diluted net income per share to diluted net income per share, the most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, below.
