What the filing says
Sturm, Ruger reported Q3 2026 net sales of $147.6M (+16.5% YoY), diluted EPS of $0.36 (+260% YoY), and adjusted EPS of $0.44 (+340% YoY). Gross margin expanded to 20.7% from 15.1%. The company suspended production of ~$25M in underperforming product families as part of portfolio rationalization. Board declared $0.18/share quarterly dividend (payable Dec 4, 2026). Year-to-date 2026: $447M sales (+13% YoY), adjusted EPS $1.23 (+89% YoY); cash position $101.4M with no debt.
Why this rating
Strong YoY growth in sales, margins, and profitability materially exceeds prior performance. Product rationalization (~$25M revenue, 4.3% of $582.8M cap) is disciplined but non-transformational. Execution on 2030 strategy credible; no external financing risk.
