Tandy Leather Factory Reports Second Quarter 2026 Results
BENBROOK, TEXAS – August 11, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – Tandy Leather Factory, Inc. (Nasdaq: TLF) today announced the Company’s financial results for the second fiscal quarter of 2026.
Highlights from second quarter 2026:
| • |
Revenues were $18.0 million, up 1.5% from 2025
|
| • |
Generated operating income of $0.5 million up 722.9% from 2025
|
| • |
Net income of $0.4 million versus net loss of ($0.2) million in 2025
|
| • |
Gross margins of 64.8%, up from 59.5% in 2025
|
| • |
EBITDA from operations of $0.9 million
|
| • |
Ended quarter with $6.4 million of cash and cash equivalents
|
Tandy Leather Factory’s second quarter sales were $18.0 million in 2026, up from $17.8 million in 2025. Second quarter 2026 gross profit was $11.7 million, up from
$10.6 million in 2025. As of June 30, 2026, the Company held $6.4 million of cash and cash equivalents, down from $16.1 million as of December 31, 2025. This decrease reflects $6.0 million in dividends paid to shareholders in Q1 2026 and
approximately $4.0 million related to an increase in inventory purchases to support sales, investment in a new POS system, and some capital investments in our new store we opened in Waco, Texas during the second quarter of 2026 and other
existing stores. The Company had basic and diluted net income in the quarter of $0.05 per share, versus $0.02 basic and diluted net loss per share in the prior year.
Johan Hedberg, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, said, “We are happy to have delivered another growth quarter with sales gains across both retail and e-commerce
channels and a considerable improvement in operating income versus the prior year. Gross margin also increased, primarily due to better pricing of our products. Operating expenses increased year-over-year, reflecting higher compensation,
investments in a new POS system, launching a new Loyalty program to further improve the customer experience, and occupancy costs including rent for our headquarters and flagship store in Fort Worth. Nonetheless, our sales increases and margin
growth more than offset those expenses, driving a strong improvement in profit from operations.”
