**Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. Reports<br> Fourth Quarter and Full-Year 2025 Results**

*Delivered Fourth Quarter Net Sales of $151.1 million and<br> Full-Year Net Sales of $546.1 Million*

 

*Generated $54.3 Million of Cash from Operations in 2025*

 

*Returned $36.2 Million of Cash to Shareholders in 2025*

 

*Declares Quarterly Dividend of $0.08 Per Share*

**MAYODAN, NORTH CAROLINA – March 2, 2026 – Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc.** (NYSE: RGR) ("Ruger" or the "Company") announced today its financial results for the fourth quarter and full-year 2025.

**Fourth Quarter 2025 Financial Highlights**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· The Company achieved fourth quarter net sales of $151.1 million, a 3.6% increase over the $145.8 million achieved in the corresponding
period in 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· For the fourth quarter, Ruger saw diluted earnings of $0.21 per share compared to $0.62 per share in the corresponding period in 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· On an adjusted basis, diluted earnings for the fourth quarter of 2025 were $0.26 per share.

**Full-Year 2025 Financial Highlights**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· The Company achieved full-year net sales of $546.1 million, a 1.9% increase over the $535.6 million achieved in the corresponding
period in 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· For the full-year, Ruger lost $0.27 per share in 2025 compared to diluted earnings of $1.77 per share in the corresponding period
in 2024. Adjusted diluted earnings per share were $0.84 in 2025 and $1.86 in 2024.

The Company also announced today that its Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.08 per share for the fourth quarter for stockholders of record as of March 16, 2026, payable on March 31, 2026. This dividend equates to approximately 40% of net income.

"We are encouraged by our fourth quarter and full-year results, with revenues exceeding the same periods last year despite a challenging consumer environment. This performance reflects the strength of our product strategy and our continued focus on innovation," said Todd Seyfert, President and Chief Executive Officer. "During the fourth quarter, we launched 65 new models, including three new platforms – the Glenfield by Ruger rifle, the Red Label III shotgun and the Harrier rifle – all of which are seeing strong consumer demand. Along with the continued expansion of Marlin rifles, the American Rifle Gen II family and the RXM lineup, our product pipeline is delivering as planned and enabling Ruger to outperform the broader market."

![](image_002.jpg)

**Additional Highlights**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· The estimated sell-through of the Company's products from the independent distributors to retailers in 2025 increased by 4.5%
from 2024, despite a 4.1% decrease in adjusted NICS during the same period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Sales of new products, including the RXM pistol, Marlin lever-action rifles and American Centerfire Rifle Generation II, represented
$173 million, or 33%, of firearm sales in 2025. New product sales include only major new products that were introduced in the past two
years.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· In 2025, the Company's finished goods inventories decreased 47,700 units from the elimination of the models that were rationalized
in the second quarter, while distributors' inventories decreased 33,500 units reflecting strong retail pull through of our new products.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· For 2025, cash generated from operations totaled $54.3 million. As of December 31, 2025, Ruger's cash and short-term investments
totaled $92.5 million. The Company's current ratio is 3.9 to 1 and there is no debt.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· In 2025, capital expenditures totaled $30.9 million, including $15.0 million for the Anderson acquisition in Hebron, KY.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· In 2025, the Company returned $36.1 million to its shareholders through the payment of $10.1 million in quarterly dividends and $26.0
million through the repurchase of 733,000 shares of its common stock at an average cost of $35.60 per share.

"While our product momentum and demand remain strong, we must stay focused on improving our bottom-line performance. As I outlined last year, increasing profitability, aligning our manufacturing footprint with demand and right-sizing the business for the future are not optional – they are essential," Seyfert added. "Over the past year, we have begun taking decisive actions to better balance capacity, control costs and position Ruger for long-term success. As we start 2026 our team continues to be focused on executing the plan, continuing to improve our cost structure and investing in the products and capabilities that will enable our growth and performance in the future."

Today, the Company filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2025. The financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K are attached to this press release.

The Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2025 is available on the SEC website at **<u>SEC.gov</u>** and the Ruger website at **<u>Ruger.com/corporate</u>**.

**Non-GAAP Financial Measure**

In an effort to provide investors with additional information regarding its results, the Company refers to various United States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") financial measures and three non-GAAP financial measures, EBITDA, EBITDA margin, and adjusted diluted earnings per share ("Adjusted EPS"), which management believes provides useful information to investors. These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures being disclosed by other companies. In addition, the Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not in lieu of, GAAP financial measures. The Company believes that EBITDA and EBITDA margin are useful to understanding its operating results and the ongoing performance of its underlying business, as EBITDA provides information on the Company's ability to meet its capital expenditure and working capital requirements, and is also an indicator of profitability. The Company believes that this reporting provides better transparency and comparability to its operating results. The Company believes that Adjusted EPS is useful to understanding its operating results and the ongoing performance of its underlying business by identifying unusual and infrequent non-operating items that are not related to our ongoing operations and presenting our earnings per share independent of those items. The Company uses both GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate its financial performance.

EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, and depreciation and amortization. The Company calculates this by adding the amount of interest expense, income tax expense and depreciation and amortization expenses that have been deducted from net income back into net income, and subtracting the amount of interest income that was included in net income from net income to arrive at EBITDA. The Company's EBITDA calculation also excludes certain one-time non-cash, non-operating expenses.
