"We closed the year with two consecutive quarters of solid financial results,” said Josh Simon, Chief Executive Officer of Funko.

Yourself in Europe.
"Turning to our balance sheet, we reduced our inventory levels and paid down $16 million of debt in Q4. And, as previously announced, we reached an agreement with our lender group to amend our credit agreement, which extends the maturity to December 31, 2027 and provides us with the financial flexibility to deliver on our long-term plans.
"Looking ahead, we’re excited about the 2026 entertainment slate and executing our 'Make Culture POP!' strategy -- winning the moments that shape culture, scaling storytelling across new products and platforms, expanding our touchpoints with fans and driving profitable growth.”

*Adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share and adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures. For a reconciliation of historical adjusted net income (loss), adjusted income (loss) per diluted share, and adjusted EBITDA, to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures, please refer to the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section of this press release. A reconciliation of adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share and adjusted EBITDA outlook to the corresponding GAAP measure on a forward-looking basis cannot be provided without unreasonable efforts, as we are unable to provide reconciling information with respect to certain items. However, for the first quarter of 2026 the company expects equity-based compensation of approximately $4 million, depreciation and amortization of approximately $15 million and interest expense of approximately $5 million. For the full year 2026, the company expects equity-based compensation of approximately $15 million, depreciation and amortization of approximately $60 million and interest expense of approximately $18 million, each of which is a reconciling item to net loss. See "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" and the attached reconciliations for more information.
Conference Call and Webcast
The company will host a webcast at 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time (1:30 p.m. Pacific Time) today, March 12, 2026, to further discuss its fourth-quarter and full-year results and business update. A live webcast, presentation materials and a replay of the event will be available on the Investor Relations section on the Company’s website at investor.funko.com. The replay of the webcast will be available for one year.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release contains references to non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted net income (loss), including per share amounts, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin and adjusted net income (loss) margin, which are financial measures that are not prepared in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP). Management uses these measures internally for evaluating its operating performance, for planning purposes, including the preparation of our annual operating budget and financials projections, to assess incentive compensation for our employees, and to evaluate our capacity to expand our business. The company's management believes that the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplementary information regarding operational performance because it enhances an investor's overall understanding of the financial results for the company's core business. Additionally, it provides a basis for the comparison of the financial results for the company's core business between current, past and future periods as they remove the impact of items not directly resulting from our core operations. The company also believes that including adjusted EBITDA and the other non-GAAP financial measures presented in this release is appropriate to provide additional information to investors and help to compare against other companies in our industry. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should be considered only as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for or as a superior measure to, financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We caution investors that amounts presented in accordance with our definitions of adjusted net income (loss), including per share amounts, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by our competitors, because not all companies and analysts calculate these measures in the same manner.
Detailed reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the financial tables following this release.
