Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
For the Three and Nine Months Ended August 31, 2025 and 2024
| 1. | NATURE OF OPERATIONS |
Byrna Technologies Inc. (the “Company” or “Byrna”) is a technology company, specializing in next generation alternatives to traditional firearms without the risk of taking a life. The Company's launchers can be used for self-defense and personal security by consumers in all 50 states without a firearms license, subject to local regulations. The Company also sells accessories, pepper sprays, and other personal safety tools. Most of the sales are to consumers in the United States via the Company's e-commerce site, its Amazon storefront, its Company owned brick and mortar locations, and through retailers, including big box stores. The Company's products also may be sold to private security and public security officers. Since 2020, the Company has not manufactured or sold any products to or for use by the military. The Company operates manufacturing facilities: a square foot facility located in Fort Wayne, Indiana; a square foot facility located in Fort Wayne, Indiana; and a
| 2. | OPERATIONS AND MANAGEMENT PLANS |
As of August 31, 2025, the Company has incurred an accumulated deficit of approximately $
| 3. | BASIS OF PRESENTATION |
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2025 and 2024 include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and therefore do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”); however, such information reflects all adjustments consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto together with management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations contained in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2024. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the results of its operations for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2025 and 2024, and its cash flows for the nine months ended August 31, 2025 and August 31, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year.
| 4. | USE OF ESTIMATES |
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty. Therefore, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and any such differences may be material to our condensed consolidated financial statements. Significant estimates include assumptions about stock-based compensation expense, valuation for deferred tax assets, incremental borrowing rate on leases, useful life of long-lived assets, inventory reserves, and allowance for credit losses.
| 5. | RECENT ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE |
The Company considers the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standards Updates ("ASUs"). ASUs not discussed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are expected to have minimal impact on the financial statements.
Accounting Pronouncements Issued but Not Adopted
The FASB issued ASU 2023-07: Segment Reporting Topic 280 - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. This update requires expanded annual and interim disclosures for significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss. This update will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and is to be applied retrospectively to all periods presented in the financial statements. The Company will reflect any needed changes in its annual financial statements for the year ended November 30, 2025, and believes the adoption of ASU 2023-07 will not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements other than expanded disclosures.
In 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. This update standardizes categories for the effective tax rate reconciliation, requires disaggregation of income taxes and additional income tax-related disclosures. This update is required to be effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, which for the Company will be the year ended November 30, 2026. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU 2023-09 will have on its financial statements and disclosures.
In March 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (as clarified by ASU 2025-01). This guidance focuses on the disaggregation of income statement expenses. This update requires entities to provide more detailed disclosures about the components of significant expense categories, enhancing the transparency and decision-usefulness of financial statements. The objective is to provide users with a clearer understanding of the nature and variability of expenses reported in the income statement. The standard is effective for annual periods of fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods in years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of ASU 2024-03 on its financial statement disclosures. While the Company anticipates that the adoption of this standard will require additional disclosures, it does not expect it to have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.
In July 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2025-05, which addresses the measurement of credit losses for accounts receivable and contract assets. This update introduces a practical expedient that allows entities to assume that current conditions will remain unchanged until the maturity of the asset, simplifying the estimation of expected credit losses. ASU 2025-05 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and for interim periods thereafter, requiring prospective application to estimates of expected credit losses post-adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2025-05 will have on its financial statements and disclosures. While it is too early to determine the specific effects, the Company anticipates that the adoption may improve the relevance and usability of the financial information provided to users without having a material impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.
| 6. | Goodwill |
Goodwill resulting from a business combination is not amortized but is reviewed for impairment annually or more frequently when events or changes in circumstances occur that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. The Company has the option to perform a qualitative assessment over goodwill when events occur or circumstances change that would, more likely than not, reduce the fair value of a reporting unit or to bypass the qualitative assessment in any period and proceed directly to performing the quantitative goodwill impairment test. If the Company concludes, based on the qualitative assessment, that the carrying value of a reporting unit would more likely than not exceed its fair value, a quantitative assessment is performed which is based upon a comparison of the reporting unit’s fair value to its carrying value. The fair values used in this evaluation are estimated by the Company based upon future discounted cash flow projections for the reporting unit. An impairment charge is recognized for any amount by which the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its fair value.
The Company assesses goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level, which is defined as an operating segment or one level below an operating segment, referred to as a component. The Company’s operations constitute a single reporting unit and goodwill is assessed for impairment at the Company level as a whole.
| 7. | MARKETABLE DEBT SECURITIES |
Marketable debt securities consist of U.S. Treasury Securities and Corporate Bonds. Management determines the appropriate classification of these securities at the time they are acquired and evaluates the appropriateness of such classifications at each balance sheet date. The Company classifies its investments as available-for-sale pursuant to ASC 320, Investments—Debt Securities. Investments are recorded at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income in stockholders’ equity and a component of total comprehensive income in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, until realized. Realized gains and losses are included in investment income on a specific-identification basis. The Company estimates expected credit losses for investments when unrealized losses exist. Unrealized losses that are credit related are recognized in net income and unrealized losses that are not credit related are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income. For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2025, there were realized gains on investments of less than $

Fair Value Measurement
The Company follows a consistent framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure for each major asset and liability category measured at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to settle a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, a three-tier fair value hierarchy has been established, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
● Level 1- Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.
● Level 2- Inputs (other than quoted prices included in Level 1) are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability through correlation with market data at the measurement date and for the duration of the instrument’s anticipated life.
● Level 3- Inputs reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Consideration is given to the risk inherent in the valuation technique and the risk inherent in the inputs to the model.

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and reported in Operating Expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income, and include costs of advertising, tradeshows, and other activities designed to enhance demand for the Company's products. The Company recorded advertising costs of approximately $
| 10. | REVENUE, DEFERRED REVENUE AND ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE |
The Company generates most of its revenue through e-commerce portals to consumers, as well as wholesale distribution of its products and accessories to dealers/distributors and retail stores. The Company also sells products to large end-users such as private security companies and law enforcement agencies. The Company does not manufacture or sell any products regulated by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives or for military applications. Revenue is recognized upon the transfer of control of goods to the customer, which occurs when the Company has satisfied its performance obligation by making the goods available to the customer’s designated carrier in accordance with the Company’s shipping terms. Under the Company’s standard terms, which are Ex-Works (EXW), title and risk of loss pass to the customer once the goods are picked, packed, and loaded into the carrier’s trailer at the Company’s facility and the order is marked as shipped in the Company’s ERP system. At that point, the Company has a present right to payment, the customer has obtained legal title, and the carrier—acting as the customer’s agent—has physical possession of the goods. Accordingly, revenue is recognized as of the date goods are loaded into the carrier’s trailer, regardless of when the carrier physically removes the trailer from the Company’s premises. Payment terms to customers other than e-commerce customers are generally 30-60 days for established customers, whereas new wholesale and large end-user customers have prepaid terms for their first order. The amount of revenue recognized is net of returns and discounts that the Company offers to its customers. Products purchased include a standard warranty that cannot be purchased separately. This allows customers to return defective products for repair or replacement within year of sale. The Company also sells an extended warranty for the same terms over years. The extended 3-year warranty can be purchased separately from the product and is classified as a service warranty. Since a warranty for the first year after sale is included and non-separable from all launcher purchases, the Company considers this extended warranty to represent a service obligation during the second and third years after sale. Therefore, the Company accumulates billings of these transactions on the balance sheet as deferred revenue, to be recognized on a straight-line basis during the second and third year after sale. The Company recognizes an estimated reserve for warranty based on its analysis of historical experience, and an evaluation of current market conditions.
During the second quarter of 2025, the Company offered a complimentary -year extended warranty with the purchase of any launcher during the month of May. The Company determined the standalone selling price of the five-year extended warranty and, in accordance with ASC 606, allocated a portion of the total transaction price to the warranty using the relative standalone selling price method. The amount allocated to the -year extended warranty is recorded as deferred revenue and is recognized on a straight-line basis over the five-year warranty period. Revenue related to the five and three-year extended warranty was immaterial.
The Company offers e-commerce customers a 14-day money-back guarantee, which allows for a full refund of the purchase price, excluding shipping charges, within 14 days from the date of delivery. The right of return creates a variable component to the transaction price and needs to be considered for any possible constraints. The Company estimates returns using the expected value method, as there will likely be a range of potential return amounts. The Company’s reserve for returns under the 14-day money back guarantee for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2025 and 2024 was immaterial. For customer purchases made through Amazon, certain Byrna products are designated as non-returnable, including Byrna launchers, CO₂ tubes, chemical irritant projectiles, and pepper sprays. All other Byrna accessories sold on Amazon are subject to Amazon’s standard return policy, which generally permits returns within 30 days of delivery. The Company evaluates expected returns from Amazon sales using the same expected value method applied to its direct-to-consumer sales. The Company’s reserve for Amazon-related returns for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2025 and 2024 was immaterial.
The Company does not offer a money-back guarantee to dealers or retailers. These customers may request a return or credit for unforeseen reasons or may have agreed discounts or allowances to be netted from amounts invoiced. Accordingly, the Company reserves for returns, discounts and allowances based on past performance and on agreement terms and reports revenue net of the estimated reserve. The Company's reserve for returns, discounts, and allowances for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2025 and 2024 was immaterial.
The Company accounts for shipping and handling activities related to contracts with customers as costs to fulfill the promise to transfer the associated products. Shipping and handling costs associated with the distribution of finished products to customers, are recorded in operating expenses in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income and are recognized when the product is shipped to the customer.
Included as cost of goods sold are costs associated with the production and procurement of products, such as labor and overhead, inbound freight costs, manufacturing depreciation, purchasing and receiving costs, and inspection costs.
The Company has granted Byrna LATAM an exclusive license under the LATAM Licensing Agreement to manufacture, market, sell, and distribute Byrna products within specified territories. Under the LATAM Licensing Agreement, Byrna LATAM is authorized to use the Byrna® trademark and logo for marketing and sales of approved products, subject to the terms outlined in the LATAM Licensing Agreement. In consideration for these rights, Byrna LATAM is required to pay the Company a royalty fee based on quantities and values of licensed products manufactured. The Company recognizes revenue as the licensed products are manufactured as reported to the Company by Byrna LATAM. The LATAM Licensing Agreement establishes minimum revenue requirements for designated countries. There is no minimum guaranteed royalty fee unless otherwise stipulated by the minimum revenue provisions of the LATAM Licensing Agreement.
Accounts Receivable
The Company records accounts receivables due from dealers/distributors, large end-users such as retail stores, security companies, and law enforcement agencies. Accounts receivable, net of allowances, was $
Allowance for Expected Credit Losses
The Company estimates the balance of its allowance for expected credit losses. In determining the amount of the allowance for credit losses, the Company considers historical collectability based on past due status and makes judgments about the creditworthiness of customers based on ongoing credit evaluations. The Company also considers customer-specific information, current market conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions. Account balances are written off against the allowance when it is determined that the receivable will not be recovered. As of August 31, 2025, November 30, 2024, and November 30, 2023, the total allowance for credit losses recorded was less than $

2020 Plan
On October 23, 2020, the Company's Board of Directors approved and on November 19, 2020, the stockholders approved the Byrna Technologies Inc. 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”). The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance in connection with options and other awards granted under the 2020 Plan is
The Company accounts for all stock-based payment awards granted to employees and non-employees as stock-based compensation expense at their grant date fair value. The Company’s stock-based payments include stock options, RSUs, and incentive warrants. The measurement date for employee awards is the date of grant, and stock-based compensation costs are recognized as expense over the employees’ requisite service period, on a straight-line basis. The measurement date for non-employee awards is generally the date the services were completed, resulting in financial reporting period adjustments to stock-based compensation during either the expected term or the contractual term. Stock-based compensation costs for non-employees are recognized as expense over the vesting period on a straight-line basis. Forfeitures are accounted for as they occur.
The fair value of each grant is estimated on the date of grant by using either the Black-Scholes, Binomial Lattice, or the quoted stock price on the date of grant, unless the awards are subject to market conditions in which case the Company uses the Monte Carlo simulation model. Due to the Company’s limited history, the expected term of the Company’s stock options granted to employees has been determined utilizing the method as prescribed by the SEC’s Staff Accounting Bulletin, Topic 14. The risk-free interest rate is determined by reference to the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant of the award for time periods approximately equal to the expected term of the award. Expected dividend yield is based on the fact that the Company has never paid cash dividends on Common Stock and does not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
Stock-Based Compensation Expense
Stock-based compensation costs are recognized as expense over the employee's requisite service period, on a straight-line basis. Total stock-based compensation expense was $
Restricted Stock Units
During the nine months ended August 31, 2025, the Company granted performance-based RSUs (“PSUs”) to certain employees. The number of PSUs that may ultimately vest is contingent upon the achievement of specified GAAP revenue targets for the fiscal year 2026 performance period ( December 1, 2025 through November 30, 2026), as well as the participant’s continued employment through November 30, 2027. The actual number of shares that may be earned ranges from
The assumptions that the Company used in a Monte Carlo simulation model to determine the grant-date fair value of RSUs granted with a double trigger for the nine months ended August 31, 2024 were as follows:
| Risk free rate | % | |||
| Expected dividends | $ | |||

For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded net income and, as such, used diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding when calculating diluted income per share for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2025 and 2024. Stock options and RSUs that could potentially dilute basic earnings per share (“EPS”) in the future are included in the computation of diluted income per share.

Legal Proceedings
In the ordinary course of our business, the Company may be involved in various legal actions and claims, including but not limited to product liability, consumer, commercial, tax, and governmental matters, which may arise from time to time. Currently, the Company is engaged in a number of legal proceedings; however, in the opinion of management, there was not at least a reasonable possibility the Company may have incurred a material loss concerning loss contingencies for asserted legal and other claims. While the Company does not anticipate any adverse outcomes from these proceedings, legal actions inherently carry uncertainties, and an unfavorable ruling could result in monetary damages that may impact the Company’s business, financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. Although the Company maintains specific insurance coverage for certain risks, it may still face judgments or need to settle claims in the future that could have potential material adverse effects on its business, financial condition, or results of operations.

The CEO, who is also the Chief Operating Decision Maker, evaluates the entire business as a single entity, which includes reviewing financial information and making business decisions based on the overall results of the business. As such, the Company’s operations constitute a operating segment and reportable segment.

The Company is exposed to risks that arise from its use of financial instruments. This note describes the Company’s objectives, policies and processes for managing those risks and the methods used to measure them.
| i) | Currency Risk |
The Company held its cash balances within banks in the U.S. in U.S. dollars and with banks in South Africa in U.S. dollars and South African rand. The Company’s operations are conducted in the U.S. and South Africa. The value of the South African rand against the U.S. dollar may fluctuate with changes in economic conditions.
During the nine months ended August 31, 2025, in comparison to the prior year period, the U.S. dollar on average was stronger in relation to the South African rand, and upon the translation of the Company’s subsidiaries’ revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities held in South African rand. The Company recorded a translation adjustment gain of less than $
The Company’s South African subsidiary revenues, cost of goods sold, operating costs and capital expenditures are denominated in South African rand. Consequently, fluctuations in the U.S. dollar exchange rate against the South African rand increases the volatility of sales, cost of goods sold and operating costs and overall net earnings when translated into U.S. dollars. The Company is not using any forward or option contracts to fix the foreign exchange rates. Using a

OVERVIEW
The following discussion and analysis is intended to help you understand us, our operations and our financial performance. It should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes, which are included in Item 1 of this report.
Byrna Technologies is a designer, manufacturer, retailer and distributor of innovative technological solutions for security situations that do not require the use of lethal force. Our mantra is Live Safe, and our core mission is to empower individuals to safely and fully engage in life and adventure. Our design team’s directive is to build easy-to-use self-defense tools to enhance the safety of our customers and their loved ones at home and outdoors. We are also focused on developing tools that can be used instead of firearms by professional law enforcement and private security customers to reduce shootings and facilitate trust between police and the communities they seek to serve. Our strategy is to establish Byrna® as a consumer lifestyle brand associated with the confidence people can achieve by knowing they can protect themselves, their loved ones and those around them. We believe we have a significant opportunity to leverage the Byrna brand to expand our product line, broaden our user base and generate increasing sales from new and existing customers.
Our business strategy is twofold: (1) to fulfill the growing demand for less-lethal products in the law enforcement, correctional services, and private security markets and (2) to provide civilians – including those whose work or daily activities may put them at risk of being a victim – with easy access to an effective, non-lethal way to protect themselves and their loved ones from threats to their person or property.
We believe that the United States, along with many other parts of the world, is experiencing a significant spike in the demand for less-lethal products and that the less-lethal market will be one of the faster growing segments of the security market over the next decade. We plan to respond to this demand for less-lethal products through the serial production and distribution of the Byrna® SD and expansion of the Byrna product line.
On January 10, 2023, we created a new joint venture, Byrna LATAM, with Fusady S.A. ("Fusady") located in Uruguay, to expand our operations and presence in South American markets. We held 51% of the stock in Byrna LATAM, and the remaining 49% of stock in Byrna LATAM was held by Fusady. Under the terms of the joint venture, we did not control the Byrna LATAM. On August 19, 2024 we sold our 51% ownership interest to Fusady for $1 and entered into an exclusive distribution, manufacturing and licensing agreement with Byrna LATAM. The LATAM Licensing Agreement allows Byrna LATAM to exclusively manufacture the Byrna SD launcher and ammunition in certain South American countries and requires Byrna LATAM to pay us a royalty on Byrna products manufactured. The LATAM Share Purchase Agreement also includes put and call rights based on defined triggers that expire August 19, 2029.
On July 31, 2024, our Board of Directors approved a plan to buy back up to $10 million worth of shares of our common stock (the “Stock Buyback Program”). The Stock Buyback Program is intended to return capital to shareholders and to minimize the dilutive impact of stock options and other share-based awards. The Stock Buyback Program will expire on the sooner of the two-year anniversary of its initiation or until we reach the aggregate limit of $10 million for the repurchases under the program.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three months ended August 31, 2025 as compared to three months ended August 31, 2024:
Net Revenue
The Company presents revenue net of returns, allowances, and discounts. Net revenues were $28.2 million in the second fiscal quarter of 2025 which represents an increase of $7.3 million, or 35.1%, as compared to the prior year period revenues of $20.9 million. Most of the increase in revenue can be attributed to a new marketing strategy, implemented in September of 2023, shifting advertising efforts away from social media platforms and towards celebrity endorsers. Direct to customer sales, via Amazon and our website, increased by $0.2 million, or 1.4%, from $16.1 million in the third fiscal quarter of 2024 to $16.3 million in the same fiscal quarter of 2025. Sales to domestic dealers and retailers also improved in the three months ended August 31, 2025, increasing by 155.2% to $8.7 million from $3.4 million in the three months ended August 31, 2024. Sales to international markets, including Canada, increased from $1.3 million in the three months ended August 31, 2024 to $2.9 million in the three months ended August 31, 2025. In addition, the Company recognized $0.3 million in royalty revenue related to the LATAM Licensing Agreement during the third fiscal quarter of 2025.
Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of goods sold was $11.3 million in the second fiscal quarter of 2025 compared to $7.8 million in the prior year period. This increase of $3.5 million, or 44.9%, is primarily due to the increase in sales volumes.
Gross Profit
Gross profit is calculated as total revenue less cost of goods sold and gross margin is calculated as gross profit divided by total revenue. Included as cost of goods sold are costs associated with the production and procurement of products, such as labor and overhead, inbound freight costs, manufacturing depreciation, purchasing and receiving costs, and inspection costs. Gross profit was $16.9 million in the third fiscal quarter of 2025, or 60.1% of net revenue, as compared to gross profit of approximately $13.0 million, or 62.4% of net revenue, in the prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to a shift in sales channel mix as a larger proportion of sales were generated through wholesale channels, which typically carry lower gross margins than our higher-margin ecommerce sales.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses were $14.1 million in the third fiscal quarter of 2025, an increase of $1.9 million, as compared to the prior year period expenses of $12.2 million. The increase is due to an increase of $0.8 million in marketing expenses, an increase of $0.8 million in variable expenses, which increase in proportion to sales volume, an increase of $0.3 million in employee compensation costs.
Other Income (Expense)
We recorded $0.1 million of foreign currency transaction loss during the three months ended August 31, 2025 compared to $0.1 million during the three months ended August 31, 2024. We recorded $0.1 million of interest income during the three months ended August 31, 2025 compared to $0.3 million in the three months ended August 31, 2024.
Income Tax Provision
For the three months ended August 31, 2025 and August 31, 2024, we recorded $0.6 million and a nominal amount of income tax expense, respectively. For the three months ended August 31, 2025 and August 31, 2024, the effective tax rate was 20.56% and 0.1%, respectively. Our tax rate differs from the statutory rate of 21.0% due to the effects of state taxes net of federal benefit, the foreign tax rate differential as a result of Byrna South Africa, effects of permanent non-deductible expenses, and other effects.
Net Income
Net income was $2.2 million for the three months ended August 31, 2025, an improvement of $1.2 million compared to $1.0 million for the three months ended August 31, 2024.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to providing financial measurements based on generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP), we provide an additional financial metric that is not prepared in accordance with GAAP (non-GAAP) with presenting non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA. Management uses this non-GAAP financial measure, in addition to GAAP financial measures, to understand and compare operating results across accounting periods, for financial and operational decision making, for planning and forecasting purposes and to evaluate our financial performance. We believe that this non-GAAP financial measure helps us to identify underlying trends in our business that could otherwise be masked by the effect of certain expenses that we exclude in the calculations of the non-GAAP financial measure.
Accordingly, we believe that this non-GAAP financial measure reflects our ongoing business in a manner that allows for meaningful comparisons and analysis of trends in the business and provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results, enhancing the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects.
This non-GAAP financial measure does not replace the presentation of our GAAP financial results and should only be used as a supplement to, not as a substitute for, our financial results presented in accordance with GAAP. There are limitations in the use of non-GAAP measures, because they do not include all the expenses that must be included under GAAP and because they involve the exercise of judgment concerning exclusions of items from the comparable non-GAAP financial measure. In addition, other companies may use other non-GAAP measures to evaluate their performance, or may calculate non-GAAP measures differently, all of which could reduce the usefulness of our non-GAAP financial measure as a tool for comparison.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income as reported in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income excluding the impact of (i) depreciation and amortization; (ii) income tax provision (benefit); (iii) interest income (expense); (iv) stock-based compensation expense, (v) impairment loss and (vi) one-time, non-recurring other expenses or income. Our Adjusted EBITDA measure eliminates potential differences in performance caused by variations in capital structures (affecting finance costs), tax positions, the cost and age of tangible assets (affecting relative depreciation expense) and the extent to which intangible assets are identifiable (affecting relative amortization expense). We also exclude certain one-time and non-cash costs. Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, is as follows (in thousands):

Nine months ended August 31, 2025 as compared to nine months ended August 31, 2024:
Net Revenue
The Company presents revenue net of returns, allowances, and discounts. Net revenues were $82.9 million in the nine months ended August 31, 2025 which represents an increase of $25.1 million, or 43.4%, as compared to the prior year period revenues of $57.8 million. Most of the increase in revenue can be attributed to a new marketing strategy, implemented in September of 2023, shifting advertising efforts away from social media platforms and towards celebrity endorsers. Direct to customer sales, via Amazon and our website, which increased by $7.7 million, or 17.3%, from $44.4 million in the nine months ended August 31, 2024 to $52.1 million in the nine months ended August 31, 2025. Sales to domestic dealers and retailers also improved, increasing by 122.4% to $21.8 million from $9.8 million in the nine months ended August 31, 2024. Sales to international markets, including Canada, increased from $3.6 million in the nine months ended August 31, 2024 to $7.9 million in the nine months ended August 31, 2025. In addition, the Company recognized $1.1 million in royalty revenue related to the LATAM Licensing Agreement during the nine months ended August 31, 2025.
Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of goods sold was $32.5 million in the nine months ended August 31, 2025, compared to $22.6 million in the prior year period. This increase of $9.9 million, or 43.9%, is primarily due to the increase in sales volumes.
Gross Profit
Gross profit is calculated as total revenue less cost of goods sold and gross margin is calculated as gross profit divided by total revenue. Included as cost of goods sold are costs associated with the production and procurement of products, such as labor and overhead, inbound freight costs, manufacturing depreciation, purchasing and receiving costs, and inspection costs. Gross profit was $50.4 million in the nine months ended August 31, 2025, or 60.8% of net revenue, as compared to gross profit of approximately $35.2 million, or 60.9% of net revenue, in the prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to a shift in sales channel mix as a larger proportion of sales were generated through wholesale channels, which typically carry lower gross margins than our higher-margin ecommerce sales.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses were $42.5 million in the nine months ended August 31, 2025, an increase of $9.9 million, as compared to the prior year period expenses of $32.6 million. The increase is due to an increase of $3.3 million in marketing expenses, an increase of $2.7 million in variable expenses, which increase in proportion to sales volume, and an increase of $2.4 million in employee compensation costs.
Other Income (Expense)
We recorded $0.3 million of foreign currency transaction loss during the nine months ended August 31, 2025, compared to $0.4 million during the nine months ended August 31, 2024. We recorded $0.4 million of interest income during the nine months ended August 31, 2025, compared to $0.9 million in the nine months ended August 31, 2024.
Income Tax Provision
For the nine months ended August 31, 2025 and August 31, 2024, we recorded $1.7 million of income tax expense and $0.1 million of income tax benefit, respectively. For the nine months ended August 31, 2025 and August 31, 2024, the effective tax rate was 18.3% and 0.2%, respectively. Our tax rate differs from the statutory rate of 21.0% due to the effects of state taxes net of federal benefit, the foreign tax rate differential as a result of Byrna South Africa, effects of permanent non-deductible expenses, and other effects.
Net Income
Net income was $6.3 million for the nine months ended August 31, 2025, an improvement of $3.2 million compared to $3.1 million for the nine months ended August 31, 2024.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We require significant capital to meet our obligations as they become due. Throughout the next twelve months, we intend to fund our operations primarily from the funds raised through our operations. We may pursue secondary equity offerings or debt financings to provide working capital and satisfy debt obligations. There can be no assurance as to the availability or terms upon which such financing and capital might be available in the future. If we are required to raise capital to support our operations and are unable to secure additional funding, we may be forced to curtail or suspend our business plans.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
See Note 5, “Recent Accounting Guidance,” in the Notes to unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of this report for a discussion of recently issued and adopted accounting standards.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are based on the selection and application of significant accounting policies, which require management to make significant estimates and assumptions. Our significant accounting policies are outlined in Note 4, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of the 2024 10-K. During the three and nine months ended August 31, 2025, there were no significant changes to our critical accounting policies from those described in our 2024 10-K.
| QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
Not applicable.
| CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, including the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of August 31, 2025 pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) of the Exchange Act. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that material information that we are required to disclose in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that material information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives. Management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Our CEO and CFO concluded with reasonable assurance, that as of August 31, 2025, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes that occurred during the third quarter of 2025 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
| LEGAL PROCEEDINGS |
In the normal course of business, we occasionally become involved in various legal proceedings. The results of any such proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty because such matters are inherently uncertain. Significant damages or penalties may be sought in some matters, and some matters may require years to resolve. In our opinion, at this time, any liability from such proceedings would not have a material adverse effect on our business or financial condition.
| RISK FACTORS |
Factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in this report include the “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2024, filed with the SEC on February 7, 2025, as amended on March 31, 2025. Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our 2024 Form 10-K.
Tariffs, sanctions, restrictions on imports or other trade barriers between the United States and various countries may impact our revenue and results of operations.
Political changes and trends such as populism, protectionism, economic nationalism and sentiment toward internationally operating companies, and resulting tariffs, export controls, trade sanctions, sanctions blocking statutes, or other trade barriers, or changes to tax or other laws and policies, have been and may continue to be disruptive and costly to our business, and these can interfere with our expanding international sales, supply chain, production costs, customer relationships, and competitive position. For example, the current presidential administration has imposed tariffs on goods from a variety of countries. These tariffs currently affect a small portion of the components of our products that we import and we may be required to raise our prices on those products due to the tariffs or share the cost of such tariffs with our customers, which could harm our operating performance. We work closely with third parties who monitor, evaluate and keep us informed about the potential impact of the effective and proposed tariffs as well as other recent changes in foreign trade policy on our supply chain, costs, sales and profitability and seek to implement strategies to mitigate such impact, including reviewing sourcing options and working with our vendors and merchants to seek to minimize product coming from China and other countries both in existing and new product development and select suppliers in low cost regions where tariff issues are less challenging. Notwithstanding these efforts, it is possible that further tariffs may be imposed on our other imports, or that our business will be impacted by retaliatory trade measures taken by other countries in response to existing or future tariffs, causing us to raise prices or make changes to our operations, any of which could materially harm our revenue or operating results. Further escalation of specific trade tensions, such as those between the United States and China, or in global trade conflict more broadly could be harmful to global economic growth, and related decreases in confidence or investment activity in the global markets would adversely affect our business performance. We do business in emerging market jurisdictions, such as South Africa and South America, where economic, political and legal risks are heightened.
| UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS. |
On July 31, 2024, our Board of Directors approved a program to buy back up to $10 million worth of shares of our Common Stock from the open market during a period of two years (the “Stock Buyback Program”). The Stock Buyback Program is intended to return capital to shareholders and to minimize the dilutive impact of stock options and other share-based awards. During the three months ended August 31, 2025, no shares of common stock were repurchased. See Note 15 of our notes to condensed consolidated financial statements for information regarding the Stock Buyback Program.
