• Lovesac reported Q2 net sales of $161.2 million, up 0.4%, with comparable sales down 1.9%. Premium customers and larger Sactionals configurations remained strong, while demand below the $6,000 price point continued to lag.
• The company is preparing its most extensive product launch cycle to date, including Snugg extensions, a personalized-comfort Sactionals innovation, and a larger premium sectional platform. Most launches are expected to contribute meaningfully in Q4, ahead of the planned fiscal 2028 expansion into a new room of the home.
• Q2 gross margin was 68.4%, benefiting from approximately $21 million of IEEPA tariff refunds; excluding the refunds, gross margin was about 56%. Lovesac also ended the quarter with $68.8 million in cash, no debt, and continued share repurchases, supporting financial flexibility.
• Management adopted a more conservative outlook because pricing and promotional changes are still being tested, Labor Day results were not yet fully visible, and product launches were delayed toward late Q3 and Q4. Q3 guidance calls for sales of $140 million-$150 million and an adjusted EBITDA loss of $7 million-$10 million, while full-year sales guidance was set at $690 million-$710 million.
