Coffee Holding SEC Filings

Coffee Holding Co., Inc. reported lower profitability for the quarter ended April 30, 2026 as coffee commodity prices fell sharply. Net sales were $22.1 million, down 5.1% from $23.3 million a year earlier, mainly because green coffee prices dropped and the company reduced prices and ran heavier promotions.

Gross profit slipped to $3.5 million, with margin easing to 15.8% from 16.0% as product and packaging costs rose. Operating expenses increased to $3.1 million, driven by higher selling and administrative costs. Quarterly net income declined to $262,489 or $0.05 per share, compared with $644,055 or $0.11 per share.

For the first six months of fiscal 2026, net sales rose to $47.7 million from $44.6 million and net income improved to $1.9 million from $1.8 million. Cash from operating activities was $6.6 million, helped by lower receivables and inventories, and the company reduced its bank line of credit balance to $2.65 million. Management noted recent new business wins and expects to maintain profitability for the rest of 2026 despite coffee price volatility.

Coffee Holding Co., Inc. reported a strong start to fiscal 2026, with first quarter revenue rising 20% to $25.566 million, up from $21.305 million a year earlier. Net income improved to $0.29 per share, compared with $0.20 per share in the prior-year quarter.

Management attributed the higher profitability to having most tariff fees and related expenses behind the company and to efficiencies from operating a single East Coast manufacturing facility instead of two. The company noted that sales remain solid across private label, branded products, and green coffee beans, while acknowledging ongoing coffee market volatility and broader macroeconomic challenges.

Coffee Holding Co., Inc. reported stronger results for the quarter ended January 31, 2026. Net sales rose to $25,565,840 from $21,305,285, driven by higher sales to existing and new customers and a full quarter of Second Empire revenue, partially offset by the closure of Comfort Foods.

Gross profit increased to $7,029,017, keeping margin at 27%. Net income grew to $1,648,320, or $0.29 per share, compared with $1,153,256 and $0.20 per share a year earlier. Operating cash flow improved sharply to $6,608,764, helping reduce the line-of-credit balance to $2,650,000 and lift cash to $2,746,491 as of January 31, 2026.

The company declared a cash dividend of $0.08 per share, approximately one-third of quarterly net income, and invested $850,000 in The Ryl Company LLC. Total assets were $41,153,601 and stockholders’ equity $28,761,513.

Coffee Holding Co., Inc. (JVA) reports higher sales but lower profit for the year ended October 31, 2025. Net sales rose 23% to $96.3 million, driven by growth from legacy customers and several significant new accounts in the second half of the year.
