• Adjusted gross margin came in slightly below expectations at 29.6%, citing product mix, tariffs, higher freight and temporary labor inefficiencies from the factory move—management calls Q1 the gross‑margin low point but expects sequential improvement.
• Management raised guidance, now expecting full‑year revenue of $600–$640 million and adjusted EBITDA of $118–$132 million, with Q2 revenue guide of $150–$170 million.
• Operating cash use was $41.4 million in Q1 to build inventory for demand, leaving cash and equivalents at $1.9 million and net debt at $179.9 million (net debt/adj. EBITDA ~1.6x); the company plans a moderate revolver expansion to support working capital.
• Legal/IP update is mixed— the ITC declined to review contested ALJ issues (encouraging; final determination due in early June), while SG&A included ~$6.2 million of ongoing legal costs and a proposed class‑action settlement had a ~$5 million net impact on GAAP results.
