AI Brief

Q3 FY26 earnings call · Nov 5, 2026
Q3 FY26

TL;DR. Cadre exceeded third-quarter expectations, delivered 30% year-over-year sales growth with 10% organic growth excluding distribution, expanded quarterly margins, raised full-year guidance for the second consecutive quarter and reported FBI, BMO and RCMP contract wins. It also completed an EOD bolt-on acquisition. Offsets included lower distribution revenue, weaker nine-month net income and gross margins, increased debt and net debt, and potential pressure on highly profitable holster demand.
