Complete event summary combining all related documents: earnings call transcript, report, and slide presentation.Business transformation and leadership changes
New CEO appointed after previous leadership resigned; focus shifted to operational turnaround and brand strength.
Company faced challenges from overbuilt cost structure, declining sales, and excess retailer inventory.
Debt was refinanced through June 2028, and the going concern disclaimer was removed, restoring NYSE listing.
Cost structure was aggressively reduced, with SG&A down 36% year-over-year and further cuts ongoing.
AI and efficiency initiatives are being implemented to drive further operational improvements.
Brand portfolio and market positioning
Two main brands, Solo Stove and Chubbies, account for 90% of revenue; water sports brands ISLE and Oru Kayak make up the rest.
Solo Stove boasts an NPS of 73, indicating strong customer loyalty; Chubbies also maintains high brand engagement.
Chubbies saw record sales and EBITDA growth in the first half, while Solo Stove faced significant retail headwinds.
DTC and retail channels are now more closely aligned, with coordinated promotional calendars and MAP strategy.
International sales are about 10% but targeted to grow to 25–30% with new distribution in India, Europe, and the UK.
Financial performance and cost management
LTM revenue is around $366 million with EBITDA of $15 million; Q3 saw a sharp revenue drop from $94M to $53M.
Cost reductions included renegotiating audit and insurance contracts, saving over $2 million.
Marketing spend was cut and refocused, eliminating unproductive sponsorships and shifting to performance-based analytics.
Margins on new products average around 60%, with DTC margins higher than retail; griddle margins are tighter due to tariffs.
Company is not relying on revenue upside for 2026 financial targets, focusing on continued cost discipline.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.
One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
This is genuinely one of the cleanest and fastest finance apps out there to track the market.
