Koss stock reports a quarterly profit after a loss
Published on 09/30/2026 at 12:30 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWSKoss stock reported quarterly net income of USD 0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, reversing a prior-year loss of USD 0.2 million. The result marked a sharp improvement for the headphone maker as direct-to-consumer demand lifted the fiscal fourth-quarter performance.
Sales grew in fiscal Q4
According to Zacks on September 2, 2026, Koss posted fourth-quarter fiscal 2026 earnings of USD 0.05 per share, compared with a loss of USD 0.02 per share in the year-earlier quarter. Net sales increased 5.8 percent to USD 3.3 million from USD 3.1 million.
The company also generated USD 2.0 million in quarterly gross profit, up 79.1 percent from USD 1.1 million. Gross margin expanded to 61 percent from 36 percent, while operating income reached USD 0.3 million compared with an operating loss of USD 0.4 million in the prior-year quarter.
Direct sales led the recovery
Direct-to-consumer sales increased 36.2 percent year over year, with the Porta Pro wired and wireless headphone family leading the gain. Koss.com sales rose 45.6 percent, while domestic distributor sales increased 12 percent, according to Zacks.
Tariff refunds of USD 1.0 million for previously paid import duties also supported profitability in the quarter. European markets remained under pressure as distributors reduced inventory replenishment, creating a counterweight to the stronger direct-sales mix.
Fiscal results set the checkpoint
For fiscal 2026, sales increased 3.1 percent to USD 13.0 million from USD 12.6 million, while the full-year net loss narrowed to USD 0.4 million from USD 0.9 million. Full-year gross profit rose to USD 5.5 million from USD 4.8 million, according to Zacks.
Koss had a market capitalization of USD 37.7 million on September 29, 2026. Its 52-week range was USD 3.30 to USD 8.59, placing the small-cap audio company in a valuation context ahead of its next scheduled report on October 28, 2026, as listed by AltIndex.
