📊 MIXED Sonos returns to growth: Q2 revenue up 8% to $282M, launches Play and Era 100 SL
Revenue & Profitability
Q2 fiscal 2026 revenue was $282 million, up 8% year-over-year. GAAP gross profit grew 10% to $125 million; non-GAAP gross profit grew 6% to $130 million. Adjusted EBITDA turned positive at +$2 million (first positive Q2 in four years), up from -$1 million last year. Non-GAAP EPS improved to -$0.02 from -$0.18. Share repurchases totaled $40 million, buying back 2.5 million shares.
Outlook
Management sees strengthening demand in the second half of fiscal 2026, with Q3 revenue guided at $355-375 million (6% growth at midpoint). However, they face headwinds from rising memory costs (DDR4 supply tightening due to AI/data center demand) expected to pressure gross margin by ~400 bps in Q3 and likely more in Q4. Tariffs are being managed, and a potential refund of up to $40 million could offset some cost increases.
Growth Drivers
Growth is driven by five dimensions: product innovation (e.g., Play, Era 100 SL, Amp Multi), customer advocacy (improved system reliability and positive press), more intentional marketing under new CMO Colleen DeCourcy, geographic expansion (APAC and EMEA grew double digits in Q2), and tapping emerging demand trends. Existing customers expanding from 4.5 to 6 devices per household could yield ~$5 billion in incremental revenue.
Balance Sheet & CapEx
CapEx in Q2 was $5 million, down from $6 million a year ago. Management highlighted ongoing investments in AI to improve productivity across software engineering, IT, accounting, and customer support, but no specific CapEx guidance for future periods was provided.
Margins
Q2 GAAP gross margin was 44.3% and non-GAAP gross margin 46%, with higher memory costs creating a ~200 bps headwind. For Q3, GAAP gross margin is guided at 42-44.5% (non-GAAP ~150 bps higher), with memory headwinds of ~400 bps year-over-year. Operating expenses decreased 11% GAAP year-over-year and non-GAAP OpEx remained flat. Adjusted EBITDA margin improved 510 bps to positive in Q2.
Key Risks
Key risks include rising memory costs (DDR4 supply tightening due to AI/data center demand) pressuring gross margins, uncertainty around tariff refund timing (potentially up to $40 million), and ongoing geopolitical conflicts that could affect consumer demand. Management noted they are monitoring macro conditions but currently see strong demand for Sonos products.

Q3 2026 Q3 2026 2026-07-29
Revenue grew 9% year-over-year to $375 million, with strong regional and product performance. Despite a $14 million headwind from memory costs, adjusted EBITDA rose 24%, and guidance anticipates continued growth but ongoing margin pressure from elevated component costs.
Q2 2026 Q2 2026 2026-05-04
Q2 revenue grew 8% YoY to $282M, with strong gross profit and positive adjusted EBITDA. New products and growth markets are driving momentum, but higher memory costs are pressuring margins. Guidance calls for continued revenue growth and margin management in the second half.
Q1 2026 Q1 2026 2026-02-03
Q1 saw revenue of $546M, gross profit up 5% year-over-year, and adjusted EBITDA up 45%, with strong performance from Era 100 and plug-ins. Guidance points to flat first-half revenue and margin expansion, with new products expected to drive growth in the second half.
Q4 2025 Q4 2025 2025-11-05
Q4 closed fiscal 2025 with 13% revenue growth and strong adjusted EBITDA, driven by EMEA and growth markets. The company is transitioning to a system-centric strategy, reducing costs, and mitigating tariff impacts, with Q1 2026 guidance projecting margin expansion and continued investment in growth.
Q3 2025 Q3 2025 2025-08-06
Q3 revenue and adjusted EBITDA exceeded guidance despite a 13% year-over-year revenue decline, driven by strong performance in portables and home theater. Cost reductions and operational efficiencies improved margins, while new tariffs prompt upcoming price increases. Growth is expected to resume as market conditions improve.

A comprehensive, bias-free framework for analyzing and ranking stocks by Financial Strength, Growth Potential, Competitive Edge, Management Quality, and Value.

Financial Model
Projections are built from each company's audited annual financials (Income Statement, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow) over the last 5 fiscal years. Forward assumptions — revenue growth %, EBITDA margin, D&A (USD millions), interest expense, tax rate, and capex — are AI-generated using historical context and refreshed twice a year: after the December results season and after the September/Q4 results season.

DCF Valuation
Fair Value = Σ(FCFt / (1+WACC)t) + Terminal Value. Terminal Value uses the Gordon Growth Model: FCF5 × (1+g) / (WACC−g). Default WACC: 10% (US risk-free ~4.5%, equity risk premium ~5.5%). Default terminal growth: 3% (long-run US nominal GDP proxy).

CAGR Tracker
Expected 5-year CAGR = (DCF Fair Value / Current Price)1/5 − 1. Assumes fair value is reached in exactly 5 years — a mechanical estimate only.
