Escalade Q2 Revenue Falls 13%
(NASDAQ:ESCA), a maker of sporting goods and recreation equipment, reported its second quarter 2025 earnings on August 1, 2025. In this release, Escalade missed Wall Street expectations across key metrics, with both GAAP revenue and earnings coming in noticeably below analyst forecasts. Revenue (GAAP) was $54.3 million, significantly below the $60.02 million analyst estimate and lower than the $62.5 million in GAAP net sales reported for Q2 2024. Diluted earnings per share (GAAP) measured $0.13, well under the $0.23 GAAP consensus, and also down from $0.20 GAAP diluted earnings per share in Q2 2024. Despite this, gross margin (GAAP) improved slightly, and the company made meaningful progress cutting debt. The quarter reflected persistent softness in market demand, but also showed disciplined financial management and efforts to adapt to ongoing tariff and supply chain pressures.
