Smith & Wesson Brands, Inc., a prominent U.S. firearm manufacturer, is known for its extensive range of handguns, long guns, and suppressor products under the Smith & Wesson and Gemtech brands. The company also offers forging and machining services to third parties.
In its latest earnings report, Smith & Wesson Brands, Inc. revealed a decline in both quarterly and annual financial performance for fiscal 2025. The company faced challenges due to macroeconomic and industry trends, which impacted its sales and profit margins.
For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, the company reported net sales of $140.8 million, marking an 11.6% decrease compared to the same period last year. The gross margin also fell to 28.8% from 35.5% a year ago. Additionally, the company reported a GAAP net income of $8.6 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, down from $27.3 million, or $0.59 per diluted share, in the prior year. For the full fiscal year, net sales were $474.7 million, an 11.4% decrease from the previous year, with a gross margin of 26.8% compared to 29.5% in the prior year.
Despite these challenges, Smith & Wesson’s management remains optimistic about the company’s ability to navigate the current economic landscape. They anticipate that demand for firearms in fiscal 2026 will be similar to fiscal 2025, although economic headwinds such as inflation and tariff-related cost increases may persist. The company continues to focus on cost management and leveraging its flexible manufacturing model to maintain its market position.
