• Second-quarter revenue rose 190% year over year to $4.7 million, including $3.2 million from the Arps Dairy acquisition. The legacy frozen beverage and food segment also grew 9%.
• Production inefficiencies and startup costs at the Arps facility drove a $150,000 gross loss, a $1.9 million net loss, and a $1.2 million adjusted EBITDA loss. Full-year guidance was reduced to $23 million–$26 million of revenue and a $1 million–$2 million adjusted EBITDA loss.
• Management said throughput and yields at the existing facility have improved, and it expects sequential revenue and margin improvement in the second half as new school-district wins and returning customers ramp for the 2026–27 school year.
• Barfresh said it has sufficient production capacity and inventory to fulfill existing education-channel contracts, while continuing to use some co-manufacturers during the transition.
• Construction of the 44,000-square-foot Defiance, Ohio facility remains the top operational priority, with partial commissioning targeted by year-end. Project costs have risen, and the company is still evaluating mortgages and equipment financing to complete the facility.
