Utz Brands swings to $16.0 million Q2 net loss as net sales rise 1.4%

Mixed Impact 4 of 5 earnings Written later

Utz Brands reported second-quarter 2026 results for the quarter ended June 28, 2026, showing net sales up 1.4% to $371.8 million but a net loss of $16.0 million, compared with net income of $10.1 million a year earlier. The company said it will not provide 2026 guidance or hold a call because of its pending take-private agreement with Intersnack Group at $14.25 per share in cash, which it expects to close in the fourth quarter of 2026.
