Funko Reports Strong Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results;
Reiterates Full-Year Net Sales Outlook and Raises Adjusted EBITDA Guidance
--Q2 Net Sales Grew 7%; Core Collectibles Sales Increased 9%; Record Gross Margin;
Adjusted EBITDA Well Above Expectation; Debt Reduced by $15M --
EVERETT, Wash. August 6, 2026 -- Funko, Inc. (Nasdaq: FNKO), a leading pop culture lifestyle brand, today reported its consolidated financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026.
Second Quarter Financial Results Summary: 2026 vs 2025
•Net sales increased 7% to $207.7 million, compared with $193.5 million
•Gross profit was $117.6 million, equal to gross margin of 56.6%, compared with $62.0 million, equal to gross margin of 32.1%
•SG&A expenses were $79.7 million compared with $82.3 million, and improved 413 basis points as a percentage of sales to 38.4% from 42.5%
•Net income was $15.4 million, or $0.27 per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $40.5 million, or $0.74 per diluted share
•Adjusted net income* was $15.0 million, or $0.26 per diluted share*, compared with an adjusted net loss* of $26.7 million, or $0.48 per diluted share*
•Adjusted EBITDA* was $40.9 million, compared with negative Adjusted EBITDA* of $16.5 million
•Gross margin, net income, adjusted net income* and adjusted EBITDA* for the second quarter of 2026 each included a pre-tax benefit of $25.4 million related to the recognition of expected tariff refunds and the release of accrued tariffs
“Q2 was a strong quarter for Funko. We delivered 7% sales growth, above the high end of our guidance range. Core Collectibles grew 9%, and gross margin reached a record high for the second consecutive quarter. Together with continued SG&A discipline, that performance drove adjusted EBITDA well above our guidance range.
These results are evidence that Make Culture Pop! is becoming a more deliberate and disciplined growth engine. We are getting better at identifying where fan demand is forming, moving faster to turn those signals into distinctive and repeatable products, and scaling them through the channels with the strongest economics. That progress showed up in broad-based POS momentum across theatrical, anime, gaming and sports, as well as rapid-response releases around live cultural moments and the launch of POP! Mystery.
At the same time, we are improving the quality of the business through tighter assortments, better SKU productivity, continued cost discipline, and concentrating our resources behind the products, fandoms and channels with the greatest demand and return potential.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release contains references to non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted net income (loss), per share amounts, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin and adjusted net income (loss) margin, which are financial measures that are not prepared in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP). Management uses these measures internally for evaluating its operating performance, for planning purposes, including the preparation of our annual operating budget and financial projections, to assess incentive compensation for our employees, and to evaluate our capacity to expand our business. The company's management believes that the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplementary information regarding operational performance because it enhances an investor's overall understanding of the financial results for the company's core business. Additionally, it provides a basis for the comparison of the financial results for the company's core business between current, past and future periods as they remove the impact of items not directly resulting from our core operations. The company also believes that including adjusted EBITDA and the other non-GAAP financial measures presented in this release is appropriate to provide additional information to investors and help to compare against other companies in our industry. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should be considered only as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for or as a superior measure to, financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We caution investors that amounts presented in accordance with our definitions of adjusted net income (loss), including per share amounts, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by our competitors, because not all companies and analysts calculate these measures in the same manner.
Detailed reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the financial tables following this release. A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA outlook to the corresponding GAAP measure on a forward-looking basis cannot be provided without unreasonable efforts, as we are unable to provide reconciling information with respect to certain items. However, for the third quarter of 2026 the company expects equity-based compensation of approximately $4 million, depreciation and amortization of approximately $15 million and interest expense of approximately $5 million. For the full year 2026, the company expects equity-based compensation of approximately $13 million, depreciation and amortization of approximately $60 million and interest expense of approximately $20 million, each of which is a reconciling item to net income. See “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and the attached reconciliations for more information.
