Hour Loop, Inc. delivered higher sales and profit in the quarter ended March 31, 2026. Net revenues rose to $29.9 million from $25.8 million a year earlier, driven mainly by a 10.5% increase in order volume and a higher average order value.
Net income increased to $823,482 from $654,517, while gross profit reached $16.0 million on cost of revenues of $13.9 million. Operating expenses also grew, particularly selling and marketing, but remained below gross profit, supporting positive operating income.
Cash declined to $992,886 from $3.8 million at year-end as the company invested heavily in inventory, resulting in $2.2 million of operating cash outflow. Hour Loop remains highly dependent on Amazon, which accounted for about 98% of revenues, and is managing new cost pressures from global trade surcharges and changes in Amazon’s fee and labeling policies.
Hour Loop, Inc. reported first quarter 2026 net revenues of $29.9 million, up 16% from $25.8 million a year earlier, driven mainly by expanded inventory that improved product availability and sales execution. Net income rose to $0.82 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, compared to $0.65 million, also $0.02 per diluted share, in the prior-year period.
Gross profit margin slipped to 53.5% from 54.7% as higher inbound costs and storage fees from larger inventory weighed on results, while operating expenses grew 12% and fell to 49.7% of revenue, reflecting better operating leverage. Operating activities used $2.2 million of cash, contributing to a decline in cash and cash equivalents to $0.99 million as of March 31, 2026, from $3.79 million at year-end 2025, alongside higher inventory of $21.1 million. The company reaffirmed its 2026 outlook for net revenue of $143.0–$163.0 million and net income of $0.75–$1.5 million.

Hour Loop, Inc. reports modest 2025 growth while outlining heavy platform dependence and rising trade-policy risks. Net revenue reached $142,440,236, up 3% from 2024, and net income improved to $1,704,849, supported by disciplined purchasing, inventory optimization and proprietary pricing software.
About 98% of 2025 revenue flowed through Amazon, underscoring concentration risk alongside increasing Amazon fulfillment fees. The company front-loaded 2025 inventory to manage China-related tariffs but now faces a temporary 10% global import surcharge, loss of de minimis treatment, and new trade investigations that may pressure margins despite prior buffering actions.
Hour Loop, Inc. reported full-year 2025 net revenues of $142.4 million, up from $138.3 million in 2024, with net income rising to $1.7 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, compared to $0.7 million, or $0.02 per diluted share. Cash provided by operating activities improved to $2.6 million from $0.3 million, and cash and cash equivalents increased to $3.8 million as of December 31, 2025, from $2.1 million a year earlier.
Profitability strengthened despite tariff pressures, as gross margin expanded to 52.4% and operating income more than tripled to $2.5 million, helped by lower operating expenses as a percentage of revenue. For 2026, Hour Loop forecasts net revenue between $143 million and $163 million and net income between $0.75 million and $1.5 million.
Hour Loop, Inc. updated its bylaws after approval by the Board of Directors on March 16, 2026.

The bylaws now also require that any direct or derivative claims arising under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 must be filed exclusively in U.S. federal district courts, unless the company consents in writing to another forum.
