Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. is a prominent American manufacturer of firearms, known for its rugged and reliable products in the commercial sporting market, offering nearly 800 variations across more than 40 product lines under the Ruger and Marlin brands.
In its latest earnings report for the second quarter of 2025, Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. reported net sales of $132.5 million and a diluted loss of $1.05 per share. Adjusted earnings per share stood at 41 cents, reflecting strategic initiatives that impacted the quarter’s financial results.
Key financial metrics highlighted a slight increase in net sales compared to the same period last year, but the company faced significant charges due to inventory and product rationalization, as well as organizational realignment. These strategic moves resulted in a $17 million inventory write-off and a $5.7 million product rationalization cost. Despite these challenges, the company declared a quarterly dividend of 16 cents per share, maintaining its commitment to shareholder returns.
The company also expanded its operations by acquiring a manufacturing facility in Hebron, Kentucky, for $16 million, which is expected to enhance production capacity and broaden product offerings. New product sales, including the RXM pistol and Marlin lever-action rifles, contributed significantly to the quarter’s sales, representing 33.5% of firearm sales.
Looking ahead, Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. remains focused on strengthening its market position through strategic realignments and acquisitions. The management anticipates continued industry challenges but is committed to delivering innovative products and creating long-term value for shareholders through disciplined financial operations.
