CHICAGO, Aug. 19, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cosmos Health Inc. ("Cosmos Health" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:COSM), a diversified, vertically integrated global healthcare group, today reported financial results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2026.

Second Quarter and First Half 2026 Financial Highlights

Income Statement
Cosmos Health delivered its highest second-quarter and first-half revenue in Company history, with growth contributed by every core division. Decahedron nearly doubled its revenue in the United Kingdom, Cana Laboratories built its contract manufacturing orderbook to an all-time high of over 25 million units, CosmoFarm added more than 75 new pharmacies to its distribution network, and the Company's proprietary brands - including Sky Premium Life, C-Sept and C-Scrub - continued their international expansion.

• Revenue was $18.99 million in Q2 2026, an increase of 28.8% from $14.75 million in Q2 2025, and $36.91 million for the first half, up 29.7% from $28.46 million in the prior-year period, driven by higher sales volumes across all core segments.
  • Adjusted revenue was $19.32 million in Q2 2026, up 31.0%, and $37.72 million for the first half, up 32.5%, excluding sales discount reversals of $0.33 million and $0.80 million, respectively.
• Gross profit was $1.51 million in Q2 2026, an increase of 29.9% from $1.16 million in Q2 2025, broadly in line with revenue growth. For the first half, gross profit was $2.89 million compared to $3.21 million in the prior-year period, primarily reflecting $0.80 million of sales discount reversals with no corresponding reduction in cost of goods sold.
  • Adjusted gross profit, excluding those reversals, was $1.84 million in Q2 2026, up 58.4%, and $3.70 million for the first half, up 15.0%.
• Gross margin was 7.96% in Q2 2026, compared to 7.89% in Q2 2025, and 7.84% for the first half, compared to 11.29% in the prior-year period, with the first-half decline reflecting the same reversals.
  • Adjusted gross margin, excluding those reversals, expanded 165 basis points to 9.54% in Q2 2026 and was 9.80% for the first half.
• Total operating expenses were $4.44 million in Q2 2026, an increase of 16.5% from $3.81 million in Q2 2025, and $8.00 million for the first half, up 19.6% from $6.69 million in the prior-year period - in both periods growing well below revenue, which rose 28.8% and 29.7%, respectively.
  • The increase reflected higher administrative costs supporting Decahedron's expansion in the United Kingdom, together with higher advertising and promotional spend behind the Company's proprietary nutraceutical brands.
  • Salaries and wages declined 0.7% year-over-year in Q2 2026, despite significant revenue growth, demonstrating positive operating leverage.
• Net income (loss) was ($6.09 million) in Q2 2026, compared to ($2.83 million) in Q2 2025, and ($8.89 million) for the first half, compared to ($3.65 million) in the prior-year period, primarily reflecting $2.65 million of non-cash charges in the quarter, principally related to fair value adjustments on the Company's financing arrangements.
  • EBITDA was ($5.18 million) in Q2 2026, compared to ($2.19 million) in Q2 2025, and ($7.26 million) for the first half, compared to ($2.59 million) in the prior-year period, also impacted by the same non-cash fair-value charges.
  • Adjusted EBITDA was ($1.13 million) in Q2 2026, an improvement from ($1.31 million) in Q2 2025, and ($1.72 million) for the first half, compared to ($1.14 million) in the prior-year period, as revenue growth was offset by strategic investments supporting the Company's expansion.
  • Adjusted net income (loss) was ($1.69 million) in Q2 2026, compared to ($1.60 million) in Q2 2025, and ($2.65 million) for the first half, compared to ($1.52 million) in the prior-year period, primarily reflecting higher net interest expense.
    
    

Balance Sheet
Cosmos Health strengthened its capital structure during the first half of 2026, reducing total liabilities for a second consecutive quarter while lifting stockholders' equity and improving working capital efficiency, with receivables and inventory both declining against nearly 30% revenue growth on improved collections and more disciplined inventory management.

• Total liabilities decreased by $6.27 million, or 13.3%, to $40.79 million as of June 30, 2026, from $47.05 million at year-end 2025.
• Total assets were $61.46 million as of June 30, 2026, compared to $65.48 million at year-end 2025. The asset base remains diversified, including a solid real estate and intellectual property portfolio.
  • Liquid assets totaled $4.15 million, comprising cash and cash equivalents of $2.45 million and digital assets and marketable securities of $1.70 million.
• Total stockholders' equity increased by $2.25 million, or 12.2%, to $20.67 million from $18.42 million at December 31, 2025, while the liabilities-to-assets ratio improved by 550 basis points to 66.4% from 71.9%.

Cosmos Health repurchased 2,650,000 shares for approximately $513,000 during the second quarter, and open market purchases have continued into Q3 2026, bringing total repurchases as of this date to 5,112,000 shares for approximately $1.11 million.

Management Commentary

Greg Siokas, CEO of Cosmos Health, stated: "Q2 2026 was a record second quarter, with revenue of $18.99 million, up 29% year-over-year, capping a record first half of $36.91 million. On an adjusted basis, this represents an annualized revenue run-rate in excess of $75 million - a new milestone for Cosmos, and one achieved before any impact from potential acquisitions or from second-half seasonality, which was materially stronger last year and which we expect again this year. Every core division contributed: CosmoFarm added over 75 pharmacies, Cana built its contract manufacturing orderbook to over 25 million units, and Decahedron nearly doubled its revenue in the United Kingdom.

Our proprietary brands continued to gain ground. Sky Premium Life extended its reach across Europe and the UAE through new distribution agreements. C-Scrub and C-Sept continued to build momentum, with C-Sept PRO gaining traction across leading Greek hospital groups, and C-Scrub cleared EN 12791 for surgical hand disinfection - opening the hospital and surgical channels as well as an entirely new vertical for us in animal health.

During the quarter we also took our U.S. expansion from concept to execution with the 18 Series, a portfolio we are building toward 18 clinically validated products spanning liver health, joint and inflammation support, cardiovascular health, men's wellness and healthy aging, among other areas. Supported by local manufacturing, we expect the United States to become one of our principal growth engines.

Equally important is how we achieved this growth. Adjusted gross profit rose 58% in the quarter with adjusted gross margin expanding 165 basis points, operating expenses grew at little more than half the rate of revenue, and we reduced both receivables and inventory while revenue grew nearly 30%. That is the operating leverage we have been building toward, and we are investing to extend it - a new capsule production line at Cana, robotic automation and AI systems at CosmoFarm, and AI integration across order management, warehousing and supply chain, where we see scope to reduce certain operating expenses further.

We also cut total liabilities by $6.3 million since year-end, lifting stockholders' equity 12% to $20.7 million and improving our liabilities-to-assets ratio by 550 basis points. Separately, we began buying back our own stock because we believe our shares trade well below the underlying value of our diversified asset base and growth prospects.

Moving forward, we are starting to see the benefits of economies of scale and vertical integration, and we expect increased efficiencies to play an important role as we progress toward sustained profitability. That momentum carries into Q3 2026 across every core segment, with our U.S. platform beginning to contribute."

(*) See "Definitions of Non-GAAP Measures" and "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures" sections herein for an explanation and reconciliations of non-GAAP measures used throughout this release.

Definitions of Non-GAAP Measures

We collect and analyze operating and financial data to evaluate the health of our business and assess our performance. In addition to Revenue, Gross Profit, Income (Loss) from Operations and Net Income (Loss) under GAAP, we use: Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted Gross Profit, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted Net Income (Loss). We have included these non-GAAP financial measures because they are key measures used by our management to evaluate our operating performance. Accordingly, we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management team and Board of Directors. Therefore, these non-GAAP financial measures are presented here. Our calculation of these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from similarly titled non-GAAP measures, if any, reported by our peer companies. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as substitutes for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted Revenue
We define Adjusted Revenue as GAAP Revenue adjusted to include revenues subject to revenue recognition timing adjustments. Adjusted Revenue is supplemental in nature and is not meant as a substitute for Revenue prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted Gross Profit
We define Adjusted Gross Profit as GAAP Gross Profit adjusted for the same revenue recognition timing adjustments described under Adjusted Revenue above. Adjusted Gross Profit is supplemental in nature and is not meant as a substitute for Gross Profit prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted EBITDA
We define Adjusted EBITDA as Income (Loss) before Income Taxes, excluding (i) depreciation and amortization expense, (ii) interest income (expense), net, (iii) non-cash interest expense and change in fair value of convertible notes, (iv) stock-based compensation expense, (v) non-recurring and extraordinary items, (vi) other income (expense), net, (vii) gain (loss) on equity investments, net, (viii) change in fair value of derivative liability, (ix) gain (loss) on digital assets, (x) foreign currency transaction, net, and (xi) sales discount reversals.

We have included Adjusted EBITDA because it is a key measure used by our management team to evaluate our operating performance, generate future operating plans, and make strategic decisions. Accordingly, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management team and Board of Directors. In addition, it provides a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our business, as it removes the effect of certain non-cash expenses and non-recurring and extraordinary items.

For investors to better evaluate the Company's performance and compare results across reporting periods, Cosmos Health provides a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures. These adjustments exclude certain non-cash and non-recurring items, including stock-based compensation, non-cash interest expense, changes in the fair value of derivatives and convertible notes, gains or losses on digital assets, foreign currency transactions, sales discount reversals, and other non-operating or non-recurring items, as applicable and as further described above.

The presentation of the Company's non-GAAP financial measures is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the Company's financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP, and the Company's non-GAAP measures may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as a financial measure, should be considered as supplemental in nature, and is not meant as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted Net Income (Loss)

We define Adjusted Net Income (Loss) as Adjusted EBITDA (see above) adding provision for income taxes and deducting interest expense.

Adjusted Net Income (Loss) has limitations as a financial measure, should be considered as supplemental in nature, and is not meant as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures
