▲(6.16% Upside)
Action:ReiteratedDate:03/20/26
The score is led by improving fundamentals (profitability turnaround, strong revenue expansion, and low leverage) and a constructive earnings outlook for margin and EBITDA improvement. These positives are tempered by weak and volatile cash flow (including negative 2025 OCF/FCF), a clear bearish technical trend, and a relatively high P/E with no dividend yield provided.
Positive Factors
Revenue Growth
Sustained multi-year top-line expansion demonstrates durable product-market fit and expanding distribution. Scale supports operating leverage, retail penetration, and channel diversification, improving long-run revenue visibility even if near-term growth moderates.
Negative Factors
Cash Flow Volatility
Reversal to negative operating and free cash flow after prior strength signals fragile cash conversion. Persistent volatility in OCF can force external financing, constrain reinvestment, and lengthen payback on growth initiatives, raising execution risk over the medium term.

Revenue by Geography
Revenue by Geography
Chart InsightsByrna Technologies has seen a notable shift in its revenue distribution, with the United States & Mexico driving substantial growth, reflecting the successful launch of the Compact Launcher and strategic retail expansions. Canada shows a consistent upward trend, while South Africa's revenue remains volatile. Despite challenges in Europe, South America, and Asia, international sales surged by 86% year-over-year, supported by a one-time royalty boost from Latin America. The earnings call highlights robust growth and strategic initiatives, but increased operating expenses and economic headwinds could pose risks.

Byrna Technologies Earnings Call Summary

Earnings Call Date:Feb 05, 2026
(Q4-2025)
|
% Change Since: |
Next Earnings Date:Apr 09, 2026
Earnings Call Sentiment Positive
Overall the call conveyed strong operational momentum and notable achievements — robust revenue growth (Q4 +26%, FY +38%), improving adjusted EBITDA and a rapidly expanding brick-and-mortar footprint — balanced against transitory margin pressure from channel mix and one-time startup/amortization costs, higher operating spend to scale the business, elevated inventory and a YoY cash decline. Management laid out clear actions to drive margin recovery (price increases, manufacturing efficiencies, onshoring benefits, and expected savings from closing the South African operation) and a concrete product roadmap (CLXL, modular launcher with ~40% lower BOM, Byrna Cam), plus a $20M credit facility for strategic flexibility. Given the magnitude and sustainability of the growth metrics and profitability progress versus the largely temporary/capitalization-related lowlights, the overall tone is constructive.
Positive Updates
Strong Top-Line Growth
Q4 2025 net revenue of $35.2M, up 26% YoY from $28.0M. Full-year 2025 net revenue $118.1M, up 38% YoY from $85.8M, driven by expanded brand visibility, broader retail presence, and the launch of the Byrna SCL.
Negative Updates
Gross Margin Compression in FY2025
Q4 gross margin declined to 60% of net revenue (from 63% in Q4 2024). Full-year gross margin slipped to 61% (from 62% in FY2024). Management attributes the decline to heavier dealer/chain-store mix and amortization of startup product costs related to the CL launcher and ammunition factory relocation.

Company Guidance
Guidance highlighted margin and profitability improvement for fiscal 2026: management expects gross margin to rise from ~60% in Q4 (61% for FY2025) to roughly 63%–65% by the end of 2026 driven by a 4%–5% price increase (effective Feb 1, 2026), a more favorable mix toward higher‑margin compact launchers, manufacturing efficiencies (monthly production +33%), and the $1.5M run‑rate savings from closing the South African operation; cash was $15.5M at 11/30/25 (down from $25.7M YoY but up $6.5M from $9M at Q3), inventory was $32.7M (vs. $20.0M prior year) with Q1 expected to be the low point before rebuild, and the company closed a $20M credit facility ($5M revolver, $15M delayed draw with $15M earmarked for acquisitions) to support growth; management expects revenue to increase year‑over‑year each quarter in 2026, operating expenses to grow materially slower than revenue (driving OpEx leverage), continued adjusted EBITDA expansion, and to remain well above the “rule of 40,” while retail footprint expands from >1,500 stores to ~2,000 in 2026.

Byrna Technologies Financial Statement Overview

Summary
Strong multi-year revenue scaling and a return to profitability in 2024–2025, supported by a conservatively levered balance sheet with very low debt and growing equity. The key offset is cash-flow quality: 2025 operating and free cash flow turned negative after prior strength, and cash flow has been historically volatile.
