Published on 10/05/2026 at 13:31 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWSDuluth Holdings stock (ISIN US26443V1017) was last at USD 3.93 on Nasdaq on October 2, 2026, with a market capitalization of USD 149.3 million. The company reported a sharp Q2 2026 profit rebound on September 3, while fiscal-year adjusted EBITDA guidance increased.
Profit improves as sales fall
According to The Globe and Mail on September 3, 2026, Duluth Holdings generated Q2 net sales of USD 121.4 million, down 7.8 percent from the prior-year quarter. Net income reached USD 18.4 million, compared with USD 1.3 million a year earlier.
Adjusted EBITDA rose to USD 27.0 million from USD 12.0 million in the prior-year quarter. The transcript attributed part of the result to USD 16.3 million in tariff refunds, making the margin improvement stronger than the underlying sales trend alone suggests.
Guidance rises despite weaker revenue
Duluth Holdings raised fiscal 2026 adjusted EBITDA guidance to USD 38 million-USD 42 million from USD 28 million-USD 32 million, according to The Globe and Mail. Fiscal 2026 net sales guidance remained USD 540 million-USD 560 million, with second-half sales projected between a 2 percent decline and a 2 percent increase.
The operating tradeoff is clear: profitability improved while demand remained pressured. Inventory fell 15.5 percent year over year to USD 125.2 million, while adjusted gross margin excluding tariff refunds expanded to 59.6 percent, up 490 basis points, according to the same September 3 call transcript.
