Barfresh Food Group ( (BRFH) ) has issued an update.

On May 14, 2026, Barfresh Food Group reported that first-quarter 2026 revenue surged 92% year over year to a record $5.6 million, driven largely by the October 2025 acquisition of Arps Dairy’s raw and processed milk business. While gross margin fell to 18% from 31% due to the lower-margin milk operations and startup costs at its new Ohio facility, the company narrowed its net loss to $661,000 and improved adjusted EBITDA loss to $238,000.

Barfresh advanced construction of its 44,000-square-foot Defiance, Ohio plant, funded in part by a $7.5 million senior convertible note used to clear the facility’s mortgage and a $2.4 million government grant for specialized equipment, positioning it for expanded in-house production. Management issued second-quarter 2026 revenue guidance of $5.2 million to $5.6 million and reiterated full-year 2026 targets of $28 million to $32 million in revenue and $3.2 million to $3.8 million in adjusted EBITDA, signaling confidence that its integrated manufacturing model and scaling operations will drive substantial growth and improving profitability.

The most recent analyst rating on (BRFH) stock is a Buy with a $4.50 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Barfresh Food Group stock, see the BRFH Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on BRFH Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, BRFH is a Neutral.

The score is held back primarily by weak financial performance—persistent losses, margin deterioration, and negative free cash flow—despite strong revenue growth. Earnings-call guidance and financing support improve the outlook toward revenue acceleration and adjusted-EBITDA profitability, while technical indicators are only mildly constructive and valuation support is limited due to negative earnings and no dividend.
