Funko (FNKO) Q2 2026: Sales Growth, Profit Rebound, and One-Time Tariff Benefits

Funko reported Q2 2026 net sales of $207.7 million, up 7.4% from $193.5 million a year earlier. Net income was $15.4 million versus a $41.0 million loss. The rebound was substantial, but the filing states that results benefited from one-time recognition of a receivable for previously paid tariffs and release of related tariff accruals.

Quarter in context

Net sales$193.5 million$207.7 million
Gross margin, excluding D&A32.1%56.6%
Net income (loss)-$41.0 million$15.4 million

Core Collectibles sales rose 9.0% to $171.6 million, while Loungefly sales declined 1.7% to $31.3 million. U.S. sales increased 3.4%, European sales increased 19.4%, and other international sales declined 5.1%.

The quality-of-earnings test

The filing attributes improvement to higher sales and lower operating expenses, but also identifies the tariff receivable and accrual release as one-time benefits. The next quarter should show how much gross-margin improvement persists without those items. Funko also identifies debt, retail demand, licensing dependence, inventory management, and strategic-alternative uncertainty as material risks.
