(\u201cFitLife\u201d or the \u201cCompany\u201d) (NASDAQ: FTLF), a provider of innovative and proprietary nutritional supplements and wellness products, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026.<\/p>\n<p>Highlights for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026 include:<\/p>\n<p>  Total revenue was $25.3 million, an increase of 59% compared to the first quarter of 2025.\u00a0\u00a0Wholesale revenue was $14.1 million, or 56% of total revenue, an increase of 166% compared to the first quarter of 2025.Online revenue was $11.2 million, or 44% of total revenue, an increase of 6% compared to the first quarter of 2025.Gross margin was 37.6% compared to 43.1% during the first quarter of 2025, with the decline in gross margin primarily attributable to the acquisition of Irwin, which historically operated at a lower gross margin than Legacy FitLife.Net income was $1.7 million compared to $2.0 million during the first quarter of 2025, with the decline driven by higher amortization expense and interest expense associated with the acquisition of Irwin.Basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share were $0.18 and $0.17, respectively, compared to $0.22 and $0.20 during the first quarter of 2025.Adjusted EBITDA was $3.3 million, a 3% decrease compared to the first quarter of 2025.The Company ended the quarter with $37.6 million outstanding on its term loan and $4.2 million outstanding on its revolving line of credit.  <\/p>\n<p>For the first quarter ended March 31, 2026, total revenue was $25.3 million, an increase of 59% compared to $15.9 million during the same period last year.<\/p>\n<p>Wholesale revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 was $14.1 million, a 166% increase from the same period last year. The Company\u2019s recent acquisition of Irwin contributed $10.3 million of wholesale revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, while Legacy FitLife wholesale revenue declined $1.5 million, or 28%, compared to the same period last year.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Online revenue for the quarter was $11.2 million, an increase of 6% compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2025. Online revenue accounted for 44% and 67% of the Company\u2019s total revenue during the quarters ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.<\/p>\n<p>Gross margin for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 was 37.6% compared to 43.1% during the same period in the prior year. The decrease in gross margin is primarily attributable to the acquisition of Irwin, which historically generated a lower gross margin than Legacy FitLife.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Net income for the first quarter of 2026 was $1.7 million compared to $2.0 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2025. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the first quarter of 2026 were $0.18 and $0.17, respectively, compared to $0.22 and $0.20 during the first quarter of 2025.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 was $3.3 million, a decrease of 3% compared to the same period in 2025.<\/p>\n<p>As of March 31, 2026, the Company had $37.6 million outstanding on its term loan and $4.2 million outstanding on the revolver, and cash of $1.2 million, or total net debt of approximately $40.6 million, compared to $43.1 million as of December 31, 2025.<\/p>\n<p>Performance of Brands<\/p>\n<p>One of the primary metrics used by management to evaluate the performance of the Company\u2019s brands is contribution, a non-GAAP financial measure which management defines as gross profit less advertising and marketing expenditures.\u00a0\u00a0 Other companies may also report contribution as a performance metric, but their definition or calculation of contribution may differ from the Company\u2019s. Management believes that contribution, as defined by the Company, is a particularly relevant performance metric since it incorporates the gross profit associated with a specific brand or collection of brands as well as the advertising and marketing expenditures associated with the same brand or brands. With limited exceptions, other operating expenses incurred by the Company are generally not allocable to a specific brand or collection of brands.<\/p>\n<p>Legacy FitLife consists of thirteen brands, and Irwin consists of three brands. These collections of brands do not meet the definition of operating segments and are not managed as such.<\/p>\n<p> Legacy FitLife\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0(Unaudited)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a02025\u00a02026\u00a0Q1Q2Q3Q4\u00a0Q1\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Wholesale revenue5,306\u00a05,696\u00a06,686\u00a04,238\u00a0\u00a03,798\u00a0\u00a0Online revenue10,630\u00a010,431\u00a09,978\u00a09,028\u00a0\u00a08,678\u00a0\u00a0Total revenue15,936\u00a016,127\u00a016,664\u00a013,266\u00a0\u00a012,476\u00a0\u00a0Gross profit6,874\u00a06,904\u00a06,542\u00a05,395\u00a0\u00a05,143\u00a0Gross margin43.1%42.8%39.3%40.7%\u00a041.2%Advertising and marketing1,053\u00a01,191\u00a01,285\u00a01,077\u00a0\u00a0887\u00a0Contribution5,821\u00a05,713\u00a05,257\u00a04,318\u00a0\u00a04,256\u00a0Contribution as % of revenue36.5%35.4%31.5%32.5%\u00a034.1%\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">For the first quarter of 2026, revenue for Legacy FitLife declined 22% compared to the same period last year due to declines in both online and wholesale revenue. Wholesale revenue decreased 28% as compared to the first quarter of 2025 due to lower sales to certain retail partners, primarily GNC. Online revenue decreased by 18% compared to the first quarter of 2025, primarily driven by lower online sales from MRC.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Gross margin for Legacy FitLife decreased to 41.2% during the first quarter of 2026 compared to 43.1% during the first quarter of last year.\u00a0Contribution as a percentage of revenue decreased to 34.1% compared to 36.5% during the first quarter of last year.<\/p>\n<p> Irwin\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0(Unaudited)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a02025<br \/>\u00a02026<br \/>\u00a0Q3Q4\u00a0Q1\u00a0Wholesale revenue6,510\u00a011,216\u00a0\u00a010,295\u00a0\u00a0Online revenue311\u00a01,428\u00a0\u00a02,554\u00a0\u00a0Total revenue6,821\u00a012,644\u00a0\u00a012,849\u00a0\u00a0Gross profit2,194\u00a03,544\u00a0\u00a04,374\u00a0Gross margin32.2%28.0%\u00a034.0%Advertising and marketing72\u00a0182\u00a0\u00a0358\u00a0Contribution2,122\u00a03,362\u00a0\u00a04,016\u00a0Contribution as % of revenue31.1%26.6%\u00a031.3%\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/p>\n<p>During the first quarter of 2026, Irwin generated 80% of its revenue from the wholesale channel and 20% from online sales. Total revenue for Irwin for the first quarter of 2026 increased 2% sequentially from the fourth quarter of 2025.<\/p>\n<p>Normalizing for loss of the customers that occurred prior to the acquisition of Irwin by the Company, as well as for the results of Irwin\u2019s CBD business, which the Company is in the process of exiting, total revenue for Irwin decreased approximately 13% in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025.\u00a0\u00a0 Management believes that the year-over-year revenue decline for Irwin is primarily a function of a weak consumer environment, a lack of new product launches, and supply chain challenges including inventory out-of-stock situations.<\/p>\n<p>Online revenue during the quarter represents transactions through Irwin\u2019s websites as well as through Amazon and other e-commerce platforms. The Company began selling Irwin products on Amazon in mid-October, and sales increased rapidly throughout the quarter, with a sequential increase in online revenue of 79% compared to the fourth quarter of 2025. At the end of the first quarter of 2026, Irwin\u2019s Amazon sales reached a run-rate of approximately $9.6 million in annual revenue.<\/p>\n<p>Irwin generated gross margin of 34.0% and contribution as a percentage of revenue of 31.3% during the first quarter of 2026. Excluding amortization of the inventory step-up during the fourth quarter of 2025, Irwin\u2019s gross margin and contribution as a percentage of revenue would have been 33.2% and 31.8%, respectively. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p> FitLife Consolidated\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0(Unaudited)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a02025<br \/>\u00a02026<br \/>\u00a0Q1Q2Q3Q4\u00a0Q1\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Wholesale revenue5,306\u00a05,696\u00a013,196\u00a015,454\u00a0\u00a014,093\u00a0\u00a0Online revenue10,630\u00a010,431\u00a010,289\u00a010,456\u00a0\u00a011,232\u00a0\u00a0Total revenue15,936\u00a016,127\u00a023,485\u00a025,910\u00a0\u00a025,325\u00a0\u00a0Gross profit6,874\u00a06,904\u00a08,736\u00a08,939\u00a0\u00a09,517\u00a0Gross margin43.1%42.8%37.2%34.5%\u00a037.6%Advertising and marketing1,053\u00a01,191\u00a01,357\u00a01,259\u00a0\u00a01,245\u00a0Contribution5,821\u00a05,713\u00a07,379\u00a07,680\u00a0\u00a08,272\u00a0Contribution as % of revenue36.5%35.4%31.4%29.6%\u00a032.7%\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">For the Company overall, revenue for the first quarter of 2026 increased 59%, gross profit increased 38%, and contribution increased 42% compared to the first quarter of 2025.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Gross margin decreased to 37.6% compared to 43.1% during the first quarter of last year, with the decline in gross margin primarily attributable to the acquisition of Irwin, which historically operated at a lower gross margin than Legacy FitLife.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Contribution as a percentage of revenue decreased to 32.7% compared to 36.5% during the first quarter of last year.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Management commentary<\/p>\n<p>Dayton Judd, the Company\u2019s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, \u201cAs previously disclosed, the first quarter of 2026 was a challenging one. The consumer weakness that we initially observed early in the fourth quarter of 2025 accelerated late in the fourth quarter and into the first quarter of 2026. In addition, apparent changes in the Amazon algorithms are causing the Company to alter how it promotes its products.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn addition to those exogenous challenges, supply chain difficulties at Irwin also negatively impacted revenue as we dealt with a number of out-of-stock situations for some of our high-velocity products. We estimate that out-of-stock situations resulted in lost revenue of $1.0-1.5 million for Irwin during the first quarter, or more than half of the year-over-year organic decline experienced in the first quarter of 2026.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs has been our practice, we continue to allocate our available free cash flow to debt reduction. During the first quarter, we made a scheduled amortization payment of $1.5 million on our term loan in addition to a $1.4 million paydown on our revolving line of credit.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhile the macro environment and other variables remain challenging, I am encouraged by some signs of improvement in our business. More specifically, monthly revenue increased sequentially throughout the first quarter. In addition, most of our Amazon selling accounts showed sequential improvement over the course of the quarter.\u00a0\u00a0 Also, we are pleased to announce the launch of two MusclePharm SKUs in several hundred Kroger stores nationwide beginning in June.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLast, we remain excited about the growth of Irwin on Amazon. As previously disclosed, monthly revenue for Irwin on Amazon increased from approximately $0.5 million in December of 2025 to approximately $0.8 million in March of 2026. In the month of April, Irwin revenue on Amazon was approximately $0.9 million. Although the growth rate is slowing due to the higher base of sales, we have experienced further sequential growth in the May month-to-date period. Going forward, we expect continued future growth on Amazon for Irwin as we (1) continue to resolve the out-of-stock situations, (2) successfully set up listings for our remaining products that have not yet been available for sale on Amazon, and (3) launch our portfolio of Canadian products on Amazon Canada later in the second quarter.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Earnings Conference Call<\/p>\n<p>The Company will hold an investor conference call on Thursday, May 14, 2026 at 5:00 pm ET.

information included in this release and the presentation below contain certain financial measures defined as \u201cnon-GAAP financial measures\u201d by the SEC, including non-GAAP EBITDA and non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA. These measures may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The presentation of this financial information, which is not prepared under any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles, is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.\u00a0<br \/>\u00a0\u00a0<br \/>As presented below, non-GAAP EBITDA excludes interest, foreign exchange gains and losses, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA\u00a0excludes, in addition to interest, foreign exchange gains and losses, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation and merger and acquisition related expense and non-recurring gains or losses. The Company believes the non-GAAP measures provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain expense and other items that may not be indicative of its core operating results and business outlook. The Company believes that the inclusion of non-GAAP measures in the financial presentation below allows investors to compare the Company\u2019s financial results with the Company\u2019s historical financial results and is an important measure of the Company\u2019s comparative financial performance.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Company\u2019s calculation of Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended\u00a0March 31, 2026\u00a0and 2025 is as follows:<\/p>\n<p>   \u00a0\u00a0Three months ended March 31,\u00a0\u00a0\u00a02026\u00a02025\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0(Unaudited)\u00a0(Unaudited)\u00a0Net income\u00a0$1,720\u00a0$2,018\u00a0Interest expense, net\u00a0\u00a0735\u00a0\u00a0218\u00a0Foreign exchange (gain) loss\u00a0\u00a0(21)\u00a021\u00a0Provision for income taxes\u00a0\u00a0627\u00a0\u00a0701\u00a0Depreciation and amortization\u00a0\u00a0248\u00a0\u00a019\u00a0EBITDA\u00a0\u00a03,309\u00a0\u00a02,977\u00a0Non-cash and non-recurring adjustments\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Stock-based compensation\u00a0\u00a017\u00a0\u00a0107\u00a0Merger and acquisition related\u00a0\u00a0&#8211;\u00a0\u00a0332\u00a0Adjusted EBITDA\u00a0$3,326\u00a0$3,416\u00a0   <br \/><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/FitLife-Brands-Inc-.png\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"OMAHA, NE, May 14, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) &#8212; FitLife Brands, Inc.
