Gross margin increased year-over-year to 74.5% from 74.0%, reflecting cost reduction initiatives implemented in the first quarter of 2025.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $59.6 million in the second quarter of 2026, compared to $62.8 million in the second quarter of 2025.

March 28, 2025, lower inventory provisions, and decreased freight and other cost of sales as a percentage of sales. This was partially offset by higher per unit manufacturing costs resulting from lower production volume in 2025.

How to read Risk Factors (Item 1A) in a 10-Q
A 10-Q risk-factor section usually takes one of three forms; this page classifies it as one of:
- Pointer — the filer states there have been no material changes and points back to the annual 10-K risk factors; there is no own risk text to compare this quarter.
- Partial update — the filer carves out specific updated risks ("except as set forth below"); the excerpts show exactly what is new this quarter.
- Restated in full — the quarter carries the complete risk-factor text. When the prior quarter was only a pointer there is no prior full text to diff against, so the page flags the section as restated instead.
This describes the filing structure only — it is never a judgement on whether risk went up or down.
