Mr. Jenkins, the floor is yours.
Jim Jenkins, Chief Executive Officer and President
Thank you, Operator, and good afternoon everyone. Thank you for joining us today to discuss the results of our fiscal 2027 second quarter ended July 31, 2026. Our second quarter results reflect continued progress in the underlying business with sequential improvement across revenue, margin and profitability. Net sales were 50.1 million, down 4.5% year over year, but up 5.7% sequentially, supported by a 12% sequential increase in fire. Excluding 3.7 million of prior year revenue from the product lines we divested in March, net sales increased 2.8%.
Gross margin was 37% compared with 35.9% a year ago and 31.4% in the first quarter, and adjusted EBITDA excluding FX more than doubled sequentially to 2.7 million. Rather than walk you through everything we announced during the quarter, I want to highlight important business updates that I believe matter most. First, tender wins. These are important because they are often recurring revenue opportunities. For several years we secured multiple tender and contract awards across nine countries globally spanning fire, disaster response, law enforcement, industrial and utility markets.
These included notification of an intended award across multiple product categories under the UK National Fire Chiefs Council National Firefighter PPE Framework, a seven-year program with a total potential value of up to 220 million pounds across all awarded suppliers, as well as significant contract wins across Asia Pacific and Latin America. We have significantly expanded our offering of certified products and manufacturing capacity across fire and critical environments, strengthening capacity, supply chain flexibility and support for higher value growth opportunities, which enhances our margin profile for the long term.
Certification and product development work continues across our product lines, our higher growth recurring revenue fire services platform, while repositioning the broader operating footprint. This includes our Denver ISP startup planned to open this month. ISPs generate recurring revenue and support higher margin revenue over time in our high-growth space. Our industrial businesses generated 24 million of revenue in the second quarter, down 10.8% on a reported basis.
Excluding 3.7 million contributions from the divested product lines in the prior year quarter, industrial revenue increased approximately 3%. Growth was led by three product lines. Chemical protective grew 9% and critical environment grew 28%. Critical environment is back on plan following the forecasting, demand planning and capacity actions we put in place earlier in the year. Our primary manufacturing facilities remain at capacity, supported by improving demand and better order visibility.
Our priorities for the balance of the year are channel execution, pricing discipline, inventory alignment and converting the demand we are seeing into revenue and margin. Fire revenue was 26.1 million in the second quarter, up 2% from 25.6 million a year ago and up approximately 12% from 23.4 million in the first quarter. Fire represented 52% of net sales compared with 49% in the prior year quarter and the first quarter. Growth was broad based. Helmets increased 41%, hoods increased 66% and turnout gear increased 5.5%.
Adjusting for the prior year tender and current year service acquisitions, comparable fire revenue grew approximately 10%. Demand continues to strengthen as customers transition to the updated NFPA standards. Our certified head-to-toe portfolio spanning helmets, turnout gear, boots and gloves lets customers order a complete certified range from a single global provider, and we believe that breadth is a real competitive advantage. On the Fire Services side, revenue grew 78% year over year, with our independent service provider business contributing $3.5 million in the quarter, and we are accelerating investment in that platform.
Three items worth noting: the quarter absorbed approximately $600,000 of expedited freight tied to a strategic fire inventory build, and foreign exchange was a meaningful headwind with a significant impact of 1.3 million compared with $43,000 a year ago. Our finance team is taking a hard look at hedging strategies where they are reasonably available and financially appropriate. During the quarter the company also recorded a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of approximately 3.2 million related to LHD, attributed exclusively to the performance and revised outlook of LHD Germany.
The impairment reflects the accounting valuation of goodwill at a specific point in time and does not represent a cash outflow, affect the company's liquidity or impact its ability to invest in strategic priorities. We have taken actions to address the performance of LHD Germany, including leadership and organizational changes, and are executing a broader repositioning of the business focused on improving operating performance, cost structure and long-term returns.
LHD's operations in Australia and Hong Kong continue to perform well, and the impairment charge is not reflective of the performances of those businesses. Lastly, the resolution of the Monterrey lease matter resulted in a 1.9 million second quarter gain and the permanent elimination of approximately $400,000 in related quarterly cash usage, removing an ongoing obligation and supporting our broader effort to simplify the business, reduce complexity and provide greater clarity into our underlying operating performance.
Inventory ended the quarter at 74.9 million, down 2.8 million sequentially and 15.3 million year over year. Inventory is starting to move, and we expect that trend to continue as sales increase in the coming quarters. With that, I'd like to pass the call to Calvin to walk through the financial results.
Calvin Sweeney, Chief Financial Officer
Thank you, Jim, and good afternoon everyone. Net sales were 50.1 million, down 4.5% from 52.5 million a year ago and up 5.7% sequentially from 47.4 million. Gross margin was 37% versus 35.9% a year ago and 31.4% in the first quarter. Adjusted gross margin was 37.7%, up 410 basis points sequentially from 33.6%. Adjusted operating expenses excluding FX were $16.2 million versus $14.6 million. Net loss was 4.9 million, or $0.50 per basic share, versus net income of 0.8 million, or $0.08, a year ago.
The net loss for the quarter included the non-cash goodwill impairment charge of approximately $3.2 million related to LHD. Adjusted EBITDA excluding FX was 2.7 million versus 5.1 million a year ago and $1.1 million in the first quarter for a margin of 5.4%. We ended the quarter with cash of 17.9 million, up from 12.5 million at year end. A few drivers behind those numbers: Gross profit was 18.5 million, down 1.5% from 18.8 million, with a year-over-year margin increase of 114 basis points on tariff refunds and a favorable fire mix, partially offset by higher inbound freight.
An important note on margins: excluding the net tariff benefit of 1.4 million, gross margins still showed a sequential improvement to 34%, up 280 basis points, demonstrating that margin improvement was structural and not solely attributable to the tariff refunds. Operating expenses were 20.6 million, up 7% from 19.3 million. Adjusted operating expenses excluding FX were $16.2 million, up 11.1%, reflecting roughly $0.5 million of Interschutz trade show cost, new service location startup cost and a full quarter of service operating costs.
On a trailing twelve-month basis, revenue was approximately $191 million and adjusted EBITDA excluding FX approximately $5.4 million. Both still carry the weaker back half of fiscal 2026, so the sequential trend is the better read. Gross margin improved 114 basis points on tariff refunds and fire mix, partially offset by higher inbound freight, including roughly $0.6 million of expedited freight for our fire inventory build. The 410 basis point of sequential improvement is the clearest evidence yet that our margin recovery processes are working.
On adjusted EBITDA excluding FX, the move from 5.1 million to 2.7 million was about $0.7 million from adjusted gross profit and $1.7 million from higher adjusted operating expenses. The prior year quarter also carried a 3.1 million tender in revenue from the divested product lines. The divested business lines contributed $0.5 million of adjusted EBITDA excluding FX in a comparable year ago. Fire was approximately 52% of revenue this quarter, up from roughly 49% in both Q2 FY26 and Q1 FY27.
That is the clearest picture of our shift toward global fire protection. Geographically, the mix reflects a more diversified footprint. As fire margins recover toward their structural potential, that concentration should become a margin tailwind. On the balance sheet, we ended the quarter with cash of $17.9 million and working capital of approximately $90.8 million. Cash was up $5.4 million from year end and total debt declined to $28.7 million from $32.3 million at January 31, 2026.
We had $24.9 million drawn on the revolving credit facility with $15.1 million availability, and we're in compliance with all covenants. Most importantly, we generated $5.4 million of operating cash flow in the first half of fiscal 27, a $15.1 million improvement year over year. Inventory ended at $74.9 million, down $2.8 million sequentially, $7.6 million from $82.5 million at the end of fiscal 26, and $15.3 million year over year. And we did that while taking in expedited finished goods and building raw materials for fire.
We expect the trend to continue as sales increase while building selectively in fire categories where availability is essential to capturing demand. With that, I'll turn it back to Jim.
Jim Jenkins, Chief Executive Officer and President
Thank you, Calvin. The second quarter reflected continued progress against our plan. Net sales increased 5.7% sequentially to 50.1 million. Gross margin improved to 37% from 35.9% a year ago and from 31.4% in the first quarter, and adjusted gross margin expanded 410 basis points sequentially to 37.7%. Adjusted EBITDA excluding FX more than doubled sequentially to 2.7 million, and we generated 5.4 million of operating cash flow in the first half, a 15.1 million year-over-year improvement. Heading to the third quarter, our outlook is optimistic.
We generated approximately 47 million of revenue in last year's third quarter at a gross margin well below where we are operating today and a cash operating loss. So the comparison ahead of us is a materially better one. Two things to be clear about in the near term: we do expect the timing of certain fire orders to shift into the fourth quarter and we expect some near-term impact from repositioning parts of the portfolio and reallocating capital toward our higher growth opportunities.
We believe those actions strengthen the business. Looking ahead, four themes frame our outlook: a higher mix of turnout gear at higher volumes and higher margin; industrial improvement in building North America and Asia with the third quarter shaping up materially better year over year; another quarter of sequential margin improvement; continued simplification and repositioning the business geographically; higher revenue in our independent service provider platform in the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
We remain focused on generating positive cash flow from operations in fiscal 2027 and driving sustainable margin and EBITDA improvement. We want to thank all our customers, partners, and team members worldwide for their continued trust and commitment, and especially those first responders around the world who risk their lives every single day to protect us all. With that, we will now open the call for questions. Operator.

Our first question comes from the line of Mark Smith with Lake Street Capital. Please proceed with your question.
Mark Smith, Analyst at Lake Street Capital
Hi, guys. I wanted to dig into the gross margin just a little bit more. You know, great jump up to 37%. You know, looks like helped a little bit by tariff refund. I'm just curious, any additional insight you can give us into kind of the underlying gross margin run rate here as we look at its second half, especially as you said, you know, it looks good versus the comparables from second half last year.
OPERATOR
I apologize. It seems that we may have some technical difficulties. Please stand by. All right. And gentlemen, you may proceed.
Jim Jenkins, Chief Executive Officer and President
Hi. Sorry, we got disconnected. Mark, just as you were asking us a question about margins.
Mark Smith, Analyst at Lake Street Capital
Hey, Jim. Can you guys hear me now?
Jim Jenkins, Chief Executive Officer and President
Yeah, we can.
Mark Smith, Analyst at Lake Street Capital
Perfect. Hey, I just wanted to ask about gross profit margin a little bit, you know, good improvement sequentially and year over year. But just curious if you can give us more insight into second half of this year and, you know, excluding the tariff refund and what the underlying gross margin run rate looks like here in second half.
Calvin Sweeney, Chief Financial Officer
Sure, Mark. Yes. So the tariff refund, not expecting a significant impact in the second half of the year. I think we're going to see, though, the build off of where we were kind of in the normal, if you want to call it a normalized run rate, which was in the mid-30s. I think we'll see continued improvement with the growth on the fire and improvement in turnout gear. All of those are higher margins. So we'll see strengthening in the second half of the year, kind of continuing the trend from Q1 to Q2 and a little bit of improvement in Q3 and Q4.
Mark Smith, Analyst at Lake Street Capital
Perfect. And then, you know, you bring up fire services, you know, still a small piece of the business. I think you guys said about three and a half million, but curious, kind of what, you know, what kind of trends that business is having as we think about, you know, revenue and margin and even any insight into your capital outlay for building out some of these new locations like Denver.
Jim Jenkins, Chief Executive Officer and President
Yeah. So building out a location, a greenfield, is roughly about 350 to 500 of capital. So that, from a return on investment for my money, I like that model. You know, the trend in the industry is quite positive. I've got, you know, Barry on the line here who drives our fire growth here and particularly is very, is a lot closer to this than I am in the, in the U.S., and I might defer to Barry to respond to some of these questions as well. Barry?
Barry Phillips, Chief Revenue Officer
Absolutely. We have with Denver just starting to open up this month, just got our validation. The short side of that cost basis for the 350 to 5 is a sign that's worked out well for us in opening up the Fresno earlier in the year and then Denver now, looking at greenfield opportunities where we're going to focus on some of those expanded sites where we're being called in by departments in the regions that we're spotting based on the size of departments and the demand in the areas.
Mark Smith, Analyst at Lake Street Capital
Okay. And maybe if I squeeze in one more question here. Just you guys talked a bit about kind of simplifying the business and just kind of looking through areas that really maybe aren't producing acceptable returns. Can you just elaborate any more on what kind of portfolio actions you may be looking at today?
Jim Jenkins, Chief Executive Officer and President
Yeah, we're looking at geographies where we can consolidate warehousing and other sort of synergies in markets. We've got a European fire presence and a European industrial presence, and likely consolidating some of that I think would be a healthy exercise. We're kind of looking hard into how that might play out. We're doing, you know, a similar exercise. We're taking a look at some of our manufacturing footprint and, you know, where we should be and where it doesn't make a lot of sense for us to be and whether it be, you know, we'd be drawing away from capacity from some of the folks that are at capacity at this point.
So we're still running that out, but I would expect some meaningful changes in the next six months that inure to the bottom line beneficially, I think into fiscal 28.
Mark Smith, Analyst at Lake Street Capital
Perfect. Thank you guys.
Jim Jenkins, Chief Executive Officer and President
Thanks, Mark.
OPERATOR
Thank you. Our next question comes from the line of Mike Schleske with DA Davidson. Please proceed with your question.
Mike Schleske, Analyst at DA Davidson
Yes. Hi, good afternoon. Thanks for taking my questions. A lot of moving parts in what grew and what shrunk in the fire business and what changed in fire. But when I back everything out, did you suggest that the organic growth or kind of consistent year-over-year measure of growth was 10% in the quarter here? Let me make sure that that's—I'm thinking about this correctly—that you really are, when all is said and done with some of the one-time items and large contracts, you do see a kind of high single-digit or even 10% growth rate in that business in the near to medium term.
Jim Jenkins, Chief Executive Officer and President
Yes, Mike, that's what we're seeing is the high single, low double-digit growth in the fire space organically.
Mike Schleske, Analyst at DA Davidson
And that is what you saw in the quarter once you strip out a couple of the larger stuff.
Jim Jenkins, Chief Executive Officer and President
And yeah, I mean when you think about it, there's a tender that we had last year for the Italian government that was 3.1 or $2 million. Now look, tenders come and go and those are good things, but you don't necessarily bank on those. So if you back that out and you back out 3.7 million of SPFR, you're staring at 46ish million and we did 50.1 million.
Mike Schleske, Analyst at DA Davidson
Okay. And when you think about—speaking of tenders—when you think about what was announced in the UK and Hong Kong and Thailand and elsewhere throughout the last couple of months, you know that adds up to could be well over a year, a year and a half of top line just from those contracts alone, if I'm reading it correctly. So can you maybe comment on the timing of when these will flow to the bottom line, if it's going to be seven years or less for most of it?
Jim Jenkins, Chief Executive Officer and President
Well, yeah, I mean you've got the—I think as we described in the press release on the UK tender, and I have Kevin Ray on the phone here to talk about that a little bit—but, you know, we were sort of one of a couple of winners in that. And now the process begins where, you know, we are competing with three or four others for opportunities within the UK, but they all start to commence on that front. Kevin, I don't want to talk a little bit about that.
But before you do, some of these others, some come quicker, some take a little bit longer depending upon the region. And, you know, we would expect to continue to drive additional tender wins into this quarter that will be reflective both—part of them will be reflected in this quarter, part of them will be reflected in future quarters. It's just a function of how each of those tenders operates. But Kevin, I don't know if you want to talk a little bit about—I mean, that 220 million pound opportunity obviously is not 220 million pounds, but it is a significant longer-term opportunity.
Kevin Ray (Executive Vice President of EMEA Fire Sales)
Yeah, thanks, Jim. Yeah, it's a seven-year scheme which basically we've qualified for now on multiple sectors. We qualify for the gloves, turnout gear, the boots. And that means that we can actually really use the benefit of the work we've done over the last two years in new product development. We're very well positioned. There are 25 brigades in the UK and they go at different times when they need new contracts. But there will be a considerable amount coming up in the next 12 to 18 months.
So we've got an exhibition and big meetings next week, and we've got a pretty solid picture of how that looks and some really strong prospects.
Mike Schleske, Analyst at DA Davidson
Okay, okay. Maybe one last one for me. I just wanted to get a sense of the cadence in the third and fourth quarters here. Your comments, Jim, on the fire orders being maybe the fourth quarter, but some of the areas still being pretty strong. Does it suggest that we'll be seeing sequential growth from 2Q into 3Q and then 3Q into 4Q? Is that the right way to look at it?
Jim Jenkins, Chief Executive Officer and President
Yes, that's correct.
Mike Schleske, Analyst at DA Davidson
Is that a good platform for 2020?
Jim Jenkins, Chief Executive Officer and President
That's what we're seeing based on our pipeline and order flow, yes.
Mike Schleske, Analyst at DA Davidson
Okay. Appreciate that color. I'll leave it there. Thank you.

Thank you. Our next question comes from the line of Jerry Sweeney with Ross Capital Partners. Please proceed with your question.
Jerry Sweeney, Analyst at Ross Capital Partners
Hey, good afternoon, Jim and Calvin. Thanks for taking my call. Just wanted to talk about OPEX or operating expenses. I mean revenue looked solid, improvement of course, margins heading in the right direction. But obviously I think there were maybe some one-time items in or schutz on the OPEX line, some expedited freight, some ISP build-out. You know, can you frame that out a little bit—what should SG&A or operating expense be running at? And what is truly one time and what maybe needs to be leveraged through some revenue expansion—that is, like the ISP stuff?
Jim Jenkins, Chief Executive Officer and President
Yeah, I mean, I'll let you answer that.
Calvin Sweeney, Chief Financial Officer
Yeah, I think exactly on the ISP that will be leveraged through revenue going forward. There'll be still a little bit of a build probably in the third quarter, but we'll see the ISPs take off, especially the new ones that have come online. Interschutz is once every five years, so we won't see that for a while. And of course, that was the German fire show, and then the expedited freight, we needed to move some products to be in the right places internally to support fire growth.
And we've done that, and I think we're now positioned. But you're not going to see that. Of course, it'll be supported by revenue going forward, but it will be. If we do any type of expedited freight, it'll be directly attached to a PO and we'd have revenue support. But in general, no, that will go away looking, you know, looking down the road. But I will say the OPEX line for us is something that we are, we are keenly aware of. I need to get that into the mid to high 20s as opposed to the 30 where it is now, 32.
I think this quarter that's got to come down, and then, you know, the FX stuff is stuff that we're going to have to. We have to find a way, you know, that has become, as the dollar weakens, that is not a good, not a good thing for us. And so we're going to be looking at some hedging strategies on that as well.
Jerry Sweeney, Analyst at Ross Capital Partners
Is that, I mean, is that hedgeable? I mean, that's not Argentina. Correct? That's.
Calvin Sweeney, Chief Financial Officer
Well, a lot of it's Argentina, but it's Europe. It's other. I mean, the renminbi is actually stronger than it's been in 15 years. So all those things are sort of impacting, you know, how we play. The other thing we're doing in Latin America is we're moving inventory as quickly as we can because as the peso declines, that impacts our FX hit. So Argentina is rapidly moving on inventory and that will, I think, help alleviate an area where we can't hedge.
And Jerry, we also have a million dollar bond that will probably this time next year come to fruition. That gets released that will actually help us in Argentina next year. But it's what we're working on.
Jerry Sweeney, Analyst at Ross Capital Partners
Got it. ISP obviously, really good business, nice returns, et cetera. I think you said 3.5 million probably across the portfolio. And you're adding Denver and I think you added expansion in another location. California, Arizona, I forget. I apologize. But what is the capacity of that business on a revenue front? I'm not sure if that's readily available, but I'm just curious as to. As it stands today, you know.
Barry Phillips, Chief Revenue Officer
Well, yeah, sorry. If they're in a market that's growing, and virtually every one of these are, you get to capacity at between probably two and a half to three and a half million. It depends upon the size of the facility. But that's not limiting to us because we'll just build out the facility or find an additional facility. One of the things we did in Riverside was we ended up expanding in Riverside so that we could have the rental capacity there.
And then we also built into Fresno because Riverside was servicing that market. And so Fresno picked up a lot of that additional demand as well. And we'll probably, you know, daisy chain our way up to Northern California because Fresno's starting to service opportunities in the north that we probably need additional location on that front as well. You know, I would expect, as I said, we've got opportunities in the Midwest, we've got some opportunities in Texas, we've got some opportunities on the East Coast, all of which may be either built or bought.
Probably more likely to build.
Jerry Sweeney, Analyst at Ross Capital Partners
Gotcha. But if I look three and a half million, I mean, just with your footprint today, could you be doing 5 or 6 million of revenue per quarter?
Barry Phillips, Chief Revenue Officer
It just, we could, we could be with our, with the growth that we've got planned. Absolutely.
Jerry Sweeney, Analyst at Ross Capital Partners
And then you're, you're looking at newer, new locations geographically outside of what you're already.
Barry Phillips, Chief Revenue Officer
That's correct.
Jerry Sweeney, Analyst at Ross Capital Partners
Got it. Okay. Got it. All right, great. Thanks guys. I appreciate the clarity.
Barry Phillips, Chief Revenue Officer
