GURU Organic Energy reported record net revenue of $8.547 million for the second quarter ended April 30, 2026, representing a 31.6% increase from $6.494 million in the prior year. This growth was primarily driven by a 46.8% increase in Canadian net revenue to $6.6 million, supported by the company's direct distribution model and sustained product innovation. The company reduced its net loss to $1.0 million compared to a net loss of $1.4 million in the same period last year, with the net loss per share improving to $(0.03) from $(0.05).

Gross margin expanded 390 basis points to 63.6%, up from 59.7% in Q2 2025, as structural benefits of the direct distribution model offset input cost pressures from aluminum and freight. Adjusted EBITDA loss improved 33.8% to $0.8 million. On a trailing twelve-month basis, net revenue grew approximately 30% and Adjusted EBITDA reached $1.2 million, marking the second consecutive period of positive Adjusted EBITDA since the company went public.

Financial Performance

Operational Highlights

Canadian operations delivered accelerating results under the direct distribution model. The Sorbet-inspired series exceeded internal expectations, with GURU Zero Dragon Fruit Cherry Sorbet reaching top five SKU status on guruenergy.com. The company launched its "Boost Your Summer" seasonal marketing campaign in May 2026 and activated an 18-pack Sorbet Variety format with a leading Quebec wholesale club partner.

In the United States, net revenue was $1.9 million in Canadian dollars, essentially flat in U.S. dollar terms at +0.6%. Distributor inventory dynamics impacted shipment timing, while consumer takeaway accelerated. Consumer scan data across listed U.S. natural retail accounts showed combined sales up approximately 15% over the last twelve weeks, outpacing the natural-channel category by roughly 1.7 times.

Outlook

GURU is entering the seasonally stronger second half of fiscal 2026 with expanded gross margins, demonstrated operating leverage, and a differentiated clean label Zero Sugar portfolio. Priorities for the remainder of the year include the launch of another GURU Zero Sorbet in July 2026 and expanded U.S. distribution with a leading national natural-channel retailer in Q3. The company announced a partnership with Sprouts Farmers Market, with availability beginning June 22, 2026.

GURU Organic Energy Corp. has expanded its distribution network in the United States by securing a nationwide listing at Sprouts Farmers Market. The company announced that GURU Lite and its four Zero Sugar flavors will be available at Sprouts locations across the country starting June 22, 2026. This move provides immediate access to a health-conscious consumer base through a retailer operating more than 483 stores across 25 states.

The listing represents a significant milestone in GURU's U.S. growth strategy. Sprouts Farmers Market is recognized as a trusted natural grocery destination, making it a suitable partner for GURU's clean-label product lineup. The energy drinks feature organic ingredients, zero sugar, no sucralose, and no aspartame, attributes that align with the preferences of Sprouts shoppers.

Carl Goyette, President and Chief Executive Officer of GURU Organic Energy Corp., emphasized the strategic fit of the partnership. "Sprouts is exactly the kind of retail partner we want to grow with. Their shoppers come in looking for products they can trust. GURU was built for that," Goyette stated.

This new major listing is consistent with GURU's U.S. expansion priorities outlined for the third quarter of fiscal 2026. The company has been building its retail network store by store across selective natural and specialty grocers. GURU has established itself as a top energy drink brand in these curated environments through its clean ingredient story rather than volume incentives.

Recent performance data indicates strong momentum in the U.S. market. Across the company's listed U.S. natural retail accounts, combined consumer scan sales grew approximately 15% over the most recent twelve-week period compared to the prior year. GURU outpaced the natural-channel energy drink category by approximately 1.7 times during this period.

Key Expansion Metrics

GURU Organic Energy Corp. markets its organic energy drinks in Canada and the United States through an estimated distribution network of about 25,000 points of sale. The company focuses on providing clean energy through organic ingredients and natural caffeine without artificial sweeteners.
