Consolidated Results – First Quarter Fiscal 2027 Compared to First Quarter Fiscal 2026
- Consolidated net sales revenue increased $30.5 million, or 8.2%, to $402.1 million, with growth in both segments. Home & Outdoor growth was driven by strong international demand for packs, new product launches, and a favorable comparison to the prior year as tariff uncertainty pulled retailer orders out of the first quarter of fiscal 2026 and into the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025. Beauty & Wellness growth was driven by sales of nail care, fans and thermometers.
- Consolidated gross profit margin decreased 110 basis points to 46.0% primarily reflecting the net unfavorable impact of tariffs, a less favorable inventory obsolescence impact year-over-year, and a less favorable customer mix within Home & Outdoor.
- Consolidated selling, general and administrative expense (“SG&A”) ratio decreased to 31.0% primarily reflecting a pre-tax gain of $54.9 million on the sale of a distribution facility, lower outbound freight costs, lower depreciation and amortization, favorable operating leverage, and the favorable comparative impact of $3.5 million in CEO succession costs(6) recognized in the prior year period.
- Consolidated operating income was $60.3 million, or 15.0% of net sales revenue, which includes a pre-tax gain of $54.9 million on the sale of a distribution facility, compared to an operating loss of $407.0 million, or (109.5)% of net sales revenue, which includes non-cash asset impairment charges of $414.4 million. The remaining decrease of 60 basis points was primarily due to the decrease in gross profit margin reflecting the net unfavorable impact of tariffs.
- Interest expense was $12.2 million, compared to $13.8 million. The decrease primarily reflects lower average borrowings outstanding, partially offset by a lower balance of debt benefitting from interest rate swaps, compared to the same period last year.
- Income tax expense was $12.6 million on pre-tax income of $48.3 million, compared to income tax expense of $30.2 million on a pre-tax loss of $420.5 million for the same period last year. The decrease in tax expense is primarily due to the comparative impact of non-deductible impairment charges and valuation allowances on deferred tax assets recorded during the same period last year, partially offset by the tax expense recognized for the gain on the sale of a distribution facility.
- Net income was $35.8 million, compared to net loss of $450.7 million. Diluted earnings per share was $1.51, which includes an after-tax gain on the sale of a distribution facility of $1.74, compared to diluted loss per share of $19.65, which includes asset impairment charges and related valuation allowances on deferred tax assets of $19.71.
- Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) was $25.5 million for both the first quarter of fiscal 2027 and 2026, representing 6.3% and 6.9% of net sales, respectively.
On an adjusted basis (non-GAAP) for the first quarters of fiscal 2027 and 2026, excluding asset impairment charges(4), CEO succession costs(6), gain on sale of distribution facility(3), intangible asset reorganization(7), amortization of intangible assets and non-cash share-based compensation, as applicable:
- Adjusted operating income was $16.1 million for both the first quarter of fiscal 2027 and 2026, representing 4.0% and 4.3% of net sales revenue, respectively, a decrease of 30 basis points. The decrease was primarily driven by the net unfavorable impact of tariffs, a less favorable inventory obsolescence impact year-over-year, and an unfavorable customer mix within Home & Outdoor, partially offset by lower outbound freight and favorable operating leverage.
- Adjusted income decreased $5.5 million, or 58.3%, to $4.0 million and adjusted diluted EPS decreased 58.5% to $0.17. The decrease in adjusted diluted EPS was primarily due to an increase in adjusted income tax expense, partially offset by a decrease in interest expense.
Segment Results – First Quarter Fiscal 2027 Compared to First Quarter Fiscal 2026
Home & Outdoor
Home & Outdoor net sales revenue increased $16.9 million, or 9.5%, to $194.9 million. The increase was primarily driven by:
- strong international demand for technical, lifestyle and travel packs;
- incremental sales from new product launches;
- higher sales from expanded distribution in the home and insulated beverageware categories; and
- a favorable comparison to the prior year period, as tariff uncertainty pulled retailer orders out of the first quarter of fiscal 2026 and into the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025.
These factors were partially offset by lower international sales in the home and insulated beverageware categories.
Home & Outdoor operating income was $8.2 million, or 4.2% of segment net sales revenue, compared to operating loss of $213.8 million, or (120.1)% of segment net sales revenue, which included $219.1 million of pre-tax asset impairment charges. The remaining 120 basis point increase in segment operating margin was primarily due to:
- the favorable comparative impact of CEO succession costs of $1.7 million recognized in the prior year period;
- lower outbound freight costs; and
- the impact of favorable operating leverage.
These factors were partially offset by:
- the net unfavorable impact of tariffs;
- an increase in share-based compensation expense; and
- unfavorable customer mix.
Adjusted operating income increased 39.2% to $12.3 million, or 6.3% of segment net sales revenue.
Beauty & Wellness
Beauty & Wellness net sales revenue increased $13.5 million, or 7.0%, to $207.2 million. The increase was primarily driven by:
- growth in nail care due to new and expanded distribution;
- higher fan and thermometer sales benefitting from the favorable comparative impact of tariff related direct import cancellations and disruption in the China thermometry market during the same period last year; and
- growth in Wellness driven by incremental sales from new product launches.
Beauty & Wellness operating income was $52.2 million, or 25.2% of segment net sales revenue, compared to an operating loss of $193.2 million, or (99.8)% of segment net sales revenue, which included $195.3 million of pre-tax asset impairment charges. The remaining increase in segment operating margin was primarily due to:
- a pre-tax gain on sale of distribution facility of $54.9 million;
- the favorable comparative impact of CEO succession costs of $1.7 million recognized in the prior year period;
- reduced outbound freight costs; and
- the impact of favorable operating leverage.
These factors were partially offset by:
- the net unfavorable impact of tariffs;
- an increase in share-based compensation expense; and
- a less favorable inventory obsolescence impact year-over-year.
Adjusted operating income decreased 48.2% to $3.8 million, or 1.8% of segment net sales revenue.
Balance Sheet and Cash Flow – First Quarter Fiscal 2027 Compared to First Quarter Fiscal 2026
- Cash and cash equivalents totaled $21.7 million, compared to $22.7 million.
- Accounts receivable turnover(8) was 66.6 days, compared to 69.7 days.
- Inventory was $467.4 million, which includes approximately $15 million of incremental tariff costs, compared to $484.1 million.
- Total short- and long-term debt was $716.1 million, compared to $871.0 million.
- Net cash used by operating activities for the first three months of the fiscal year was $0.6 million, compared to net cash provided of $58.3 million for the same period last year.

Key Annual Outlook Assumptions and Drivers
- Market and Consumption Environment: The Company’s outlook reflects management’s view of continued inflationary pressures, softness in discretionary categories, conservative retailer inventory management and an increasingly competitive and promotional landscape.
- Tariffs: Tariff rates in place as of June 2026 are assumed to remain in effect for the balance of fiscal 2027. The Company’s outlook includes the benefit from Phase 1 tariff refunds of approximately $9.2 million, but excludes any potential benefit from future refund phases due to the uncertainty surrounding the timing and collectability of those refunds.
- Commodity Costs, Freight and Supply Availability: Heightened geopolitical and supply-chain risks, including ongoing tensions in the Middle East, have begun to drive volatility in energy and commodity markets that could continue, increasing uncertainty around input costs and supply chain continuity across key regions and transportation routes. The Company’s outlook now includes the expectation of higher product costs driven by increases in commodity inputs and pressure from unfavorable Chinese Yuan fluctuations, increased inbound and outbound freight expense, and higher costs to secure goods to avoid supply disruption.
- Strategic Investment: An increase in growth investments of 40 basis points, prioritizing high return marketing and innovation initiatives.
- Illness Incidence: In line with the average of the three prior seasons, which is well below pre-Covid historical averages.
- Interest and Debt Leverage: Interest expense in the range of $45.5 million to $47.5 million with cash flow prioritized for debt reduction, and an expected net leverage ratio(1)(9), as defined in the Company’s credit agreement, of approximately 3.2x or lower by the end of fiscal 2027.
- Tax: GAAP effective tax rate of 27.2% to 29.7%; adjusted effective tax rate of 24.0% to 26.0%.
- Working Capital Efficiency and Capital Investment: Continued working capital efficiency during fiscal 2027, with an emphasis on further inventory reduction. The Company expects capital expenditures of $30 million to $34 million with an emphasis on product innovation and supply chain diversification.
- Currency: June 2026 foreign currency exchange rates remain constant for the remainder of the fiscal year.
- Shares Outstanding: Weighted average diluted shares outstanding of 23.8 million.
The likelihood, timing and potential impact of a significant or prolonged recession, any fiscal 2027 acquisitions and divestitures, future asset impairment charges, additional interest rate changes, litigation or share repurchases are unknown and cannot be reasonably estimated; therefore, they are not included in the Company’s outlook.

HELEN OF TROY LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Press Release
|
(1) |
|
This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures. Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Operating Margin, Adjusted Effective Tax Rate, Adjusted Income, Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Free Cash Flow and Net Leverage Ratio (“Non-GAAP Financial Measures”) that are discussed in the accompanying press release or in the preceding tables may be considered non-GAAP financial measures as defined by SEC Regulation G, Rule 100. Accordingly, the Company is providing the preceding tables that reconcile these measures to their corresponding GAAP-based financial measures. The Company is unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking expected net leverage ratio to its most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measure because such information is not available, and management cannot reliably predict all of the necessary components of such GAAP financial measure without unreasonable effort or expense. In addition, the Company believes such reconciliation would imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or misleading to investors. The Company believes that these Non-GAAP Financial Measures provide useful information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to its financial condition and results of operations. The Company believes that these Non-GAAP Financial Measures, in combination with the Company’s financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP, provide investors with additional perspective regarding the impact of certain charges and benefits on applicable income, margin and earnings per share measures. The Company also believes that these Non-GAAP Financial Measures reflect the operating performance of its business and facilitate a more direct comparison of the Company’s performance with its competitors. The material limitation associated with the use of the Non-GAAP Financial Measures is that the Non-GAAP Financial Measures do not reflect the full economic impact of the Company’s activities. These Non-GAAP Financial Measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, are not an alternative to GAAP financial measures and may be calculated differently than non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by other companies. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed on non-GAAP financial measures. |

|

|
|
|

|
(9) |
|
Net leverage ratio is calculated as (a) total borrowings under the Company’s credit agreement, net of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, including readily marketable obligations issued, guaranteed or insured by the U.S. with maturities of two years or less, at the end of the current period, divided by (b) Adjusted EBITDA per the Company’s credit agreement (calculated as EBITDA plus non-cash charges and certain allowed addbacks, less certain non-cash income, plus the pro forma effect of acquisitions and certain pro forma run-rate cost savings for acquisitions and dispositions, as applicable for the trailing twelve months ended as of the current period). |
|
|
|
|
|
(10) |
|
Domestic net sales revenue includes net sales revenue from the U.S. and Canada. |
