Clarus Cuts 2026 Outlook and Starts Strategic Review; Q1 Sales Rise 2.5%

Mixed Impact 4 of 5 guidance Written later

Clarus reported first quarter 2026 sales of $61.9 million, up 2.5%, and a net loss of $3.3 million, narrower than the $5.2 million loss a year earlier. The company also lowered its fiscal 2026 sales and adjusted EBITDA outlook and said its Board has started a review of strategic alternatives, including a possible sale of all or part of the business. The guidance cut and the review add uncertainty for shareholders, while the company reported no debt at March 31, 2026.
