The company's gross profit also improved, totaling $45.0 million compared to $39.0 million in the prior year, reflecting a gross margin of 32.3%.

The company reported a net income of $5.9 million for the quarter, a turnaround from a net loss of $2.3 million in the same quarter of 2025.

The increase in revenue was primarily driven by strong sales in the Toys/Consumer Products segment, which saw a 21.3% increase to $97.5 million, largely due to the success of products related to the Super Mario Movie. The Costumes segment also contributed positively, with sales rising 7.8% to $41.7 million.

Operationally, JAKKS Pacific reported a total of 11,445,012 shares outstanding as of July 31, 2026. The company has maintained a strong cash position, with cash and cash equivalents totaling $59.5 million as of June 30, 2026, compared to $52.2 million at the end of 2025. The company also reported a working capital of $116.0 million, down from $121.0 million at the end of 2025, primarily due to cash used in investing and financing activities. The company’s total liabilities increased to $200.6 million from $193.1 million, largely due to higher accounts payable.

Looking ahead, JAKKS Pacific remains optimistic about its growth trajectory, citing the successful launch of new products and the potential for increased market share in the toy industry. The company is also focused on managing its costs effectively while continuing to invest in product development and marketing initiatives. The management anticipates that the seasonal nature of the toy industry will continue to influence sales patterns, with expectations for higher sales in the upcoming quarters. The company is committed to maintaining compliance with its financial covenants under its new $70 million revolving credit facility, which provides flexibility for future growth and operational needs.
