Hamilton Beach Brands Company Q3 2025 earnings summary
Complete event summary combining all related documents: earnings call transcript, report, and slide presentation.Executive summary
Q3 2025 revenue declined 15.2% year-over-year to $132.8 million, mainly due to lower U.S. Consumer volumes and delayed retailer orders following new tariffs on Chinese imports, though sequential sales trends improved as retailer purchasing normalized and tariff rates moderated.
Profitability declined more than revenue due to a one-time $5 million incremental tariff cost and timing mismatch between tariff increases and pricing adjustments, with gross margin dropping to 21.1% from 28.0%.
Strategic actions included accelerated manufacturing diversification away from China, price increases to offset tariff impacts, and cost management measures generating $10 million in annualized savings.
Net income for Q3 2025 was $1.7 million ($0.12 per diluted share), compared to $1.9 million ($0.14) last year; for the first nine months, net income rose 17% to $7.9 million.
Commercial and Health segments experienced revenue growth, partially offsetting consumer weakness, with Health division reaching positive operating profit for the first time.
Financial highlights
Q3 2025 revenue was $132.8 million, down $23.9 million or 15.2% year-over-year, but up 300 basis points sequentially from Q2's year-over-year performance.
Gross profit was $28.0 million (21.1% margin), down from $43.9 million (28%) last year, mainly due to a $5 million one-time tariff cost.
Excluding the $5 million tariff, gross margin would have been $33 million (24.8%).
Operating profit was $2.9 million (2.2% margin), down from $10.6 million (6.8%) last year; adjusted operating profit would have been $7.9 million (5.9%).
Net income was $1.7 million ($0.12 per diluted share), compared to $1.9 million ($0.14) last year; for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, net income was $7.9 million (up 17%).
Outlook and guidance
Management expects improved visibility and potential top-line and margin recovery in Q4 as trade relations and tariff rates stabilize, with further recovery anticipated in 2026 from sourcing diversification and lower fixed costs.
Funds from cash, credit facility, and operations are expected to provide sufficient liquidity for the next twelve months.
No specific business outlook or guidance provided due to ongoing uncertainty from U.S. tariffs, especially on Chinese imports.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.
One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
This is genuinely one of the cleanest and fastest finance apps out there to track the market.
