Net product sales increased 3.0% year-over-year to $230.6 million in Q3 2025 and 1.2% to $530.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, driven by higher domestic sales and successful marketing programs, though foreign sales declined.
Net earnings attributable to shareholders rose 8.6% year-over-year to $35.7 million in Q3 and 10.8% to $71.3 million for the nine months, with EPS up 8.9% and 12.6% respectively.
Gross margin improved due to higher price realization, manufacturing efficiencies, and cost reductions, despite elevated input costs, especially for cocoa and chocolate.
Marketing and pre-Halloween sales programs drove third quarter growth, while price resistance affected nine-month results.
Financial highlights
Q3 2025 total revenue was $232.7 million, up from $225.9 million in Q3 2024; nine-month revenue reached $536.2 million.
Q3 gross margin was $79.4 million (34.1% of revenue), up from $77.1 million; nine-month gross margin was $188.3 million.
Operating income for Q3 was $32.4 million, down from $35.2 million; nine-month operating income was $67.5 million, up from $61.8 million.
Other income, net, increased to $16.2 million in Q3 (from $7.2 million) and $30.3 million for nine months (from $21.1 million), reflecting higher investment income and out-of-period bond accretion adjustments.
Effective tax rate increased to 26.7% in Q3 2025 from 22.6% in Q3 2024; nine months rate rose to 27.2% from 22.4%.
Outlook and guidance
Management expects continued margin pressure from elevated cocoa and chocolate costs into Q4 2025 and 2026 as older supply contracts expire.
Plant expansion is planned over the next five years, with $75–85 million in capital expenditures, mostly in 2026–2027, to meet higher demand and improve efficiency.
Company remains focused on long-term investments in manufacturing and operational efficiency.

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.
