Key Takeaways

- Gross margin increased 120 basis points year over year to 37.4%, supported by premium products and higher average selling prices despite rising memory and component costs.
- Adjusted operating expenses rose to $34.8 million from $26.4 million a year earlier, largely due to foreign exchange effects and higher spending on product launches and brand building. Adjusted operating loss widened to $11.1 million.
- Premiumization continued across the T-Rex, Active and Balance product families. Higher-end T-Rex models represented about 50% of recent family activations, while $169 Active products reached approximately 57% through August 25.
- Management guided Q3 2026 revenue to $68 million-$73 million, implying a year-over-year decline of approximately 4%-10% against the prior-year quarter’s high comparison base.
