Stable Gross MarginA consistent gross margin in the low-to-mid 40% range implies resilient unit economics for iPower's e-commerce product mix. That structural margin buffer supports recovery if revenue stabilizes, allowing reinvestment in owned brands, marketing, or fulfillment without immediate margin erosion.
Improving LeverageReduced leverage from roughly 1.0 to 0.44 materially lowers refinancing and interest-rate risk, improving financial flexibility. A more conservative capital structure gives management room to fund operations or strategic moves and reduces the probability that short-term cash stress forces distressed asset sales.
GPM Divestiture & Supply DealSelling GPM while retaining exclusive supply rights and a $2.3M note removes a high-cost sales operation and preserves revenue channels. This structural simplification reduces operating overhead, strengthens reported liquidity and focuses iPower on core supply, fulfillment and e-commerce capabilities.
