Gross margin expanded to 39.6% in Q2 2025 from 38.5% a year earlier, driven by more favorable vendor pricing and an improved product mix (GlobeNewswire).

Import costs, including ocean freight and duty, increased by $2.1 million in Q2 2025 as a result of higher import tariffs and duty rates, posing a headwind to future gross margins (GlobeNewswire).
Operating expenses rose 0.8% year-over-year to $32.6 million in Q2 2025, driven by $1.7 million in higher offline shipping costs and $1.2 million in rent expenses, which may offset revenue gains (GlobeNewswire).
Inventories climbed to $88.8 million at June 30, 2025 from $70.7 million at December 31, 2024, tying up working capital and raising potential obsolescence risks if demand softens (GlobeNewswire).
