Vital Farms swings to $6.46 million net loss in Q3 2026 from year-earlier profit

By Public Technologies
  • Vital Farms swung to a third-quarter 2026 net loss of $6.46 million from a year-earlier profit.
  • Net revenue fell 8% year over year to $182.16 million, primarily driven by unfavorable price/mix.
  • Gross margin declined to 23.1% from a year earlier, reflecting higher input and production costs and unfavorable sales mix.
  • Farmer contract amendments reduced volumes sent to breaker and wholesale channels, the biggest driver of the sequential margin recovery.
  • Management cut 2026 net revenue guidance to around $730 million, assuming no fourth-quarter holiday lift.
