CarParts.com stock was trading at USD 8.30 on Nasdaq on September 23, 2026 at 3:49 p.m. ET, down 1.66 percent. The latest operating signal is more constructive: Q2/2026 revenue reached USD 135.64 million while the adjusted loss was USD 0.43 per share.
Q2 loss beats the forecast
MarketBeat said CarParts.com exceeded quarterly revenue and adjusted EPS expectations for Q2/2026. The USD 0.43 adjusted loss was USD 0.37 per share better than the USD 0.80 loss expected, while revenue of USD 135.64 million topped the USD 129.04 million forecast.
Revenue also increased from USD 131.961 million in Q1/2026 to USD 135.64 million in Q2/2026, a gain of 2.79 percent. The sequential improvement matters because the company still reported a net loss of USD 3.222 million in Q2/2026, making cost control as important as sales growth.
Insiders commit USD 1.5 million
Insider transactions add a second measurable signal. According to Stock Titan, CEO David Meniane bought 79,539 shares in transactions dated September 4, September 8, and September 9, 2026. COO Michael Huffaker bought 79,458 shares across the same dates, taking the combined purchases to 158,997 shares.
The reported prices ranged from USD 9.11 to USD 9.64 for both executives. That purchase band sits above the September 23 intraday quote of USD 8.30, so the market price was 8.98 percent below the lowest reported insider purchase price.
Stock remains below its yearly high
PRTS had a 52-week range of USD 3.70 to USD 10.98 as of September 23, 2026. The current quote was 24.41 percent below the yearly high, while the market capitalization stood at USD 67,219,625.
For investors, the numbers point to a company improving its quarterly revenue and loss performance while the share price remains below its recent high. The next test is whether the Q2 revenue gain can translate into a smaller net loss in subsequent quarters.
