MIAMI, Feb. 17, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Earth Science Tech, Inc. (OTC: ETST) (“ETST” or the “Company”), a strategic holding company focused on acquiring and scaling high-potential operating businesses, today announced its financial and operational results for the third fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2025.

“We exited the third fiscal quarter with strong strategic momentum and continued progress across our diversified platform,” said Giorgio R. Saumat, CEO and Chairman of the Board of Earth Science Tech, Inc. “Results were largely consistent with the prior quarter and reflected typical seasonality, including holiday timing and temporary macro and supply-related headwinds. Importantly, multiple operating units are now generating positive cash flow, underscoring the strength and resilience of our portfolio approach.”

Mr. Saumat continued, “While our reported results reflect the current stage of our growth and investment cycle, they do not yet fully capture the operating leverage inherent in the model. Moving ahead, we see a clear and verifiable path to a materially higher earnings baseline through expense rationalization and scale, a view reinforced by our ongoing share repurchases and my long-term ownership position acquired entirely with cash. With calendar 2026 off to a strong start and several geographic and product expansion initiatives underway, we believe the Company is well positioned for accelerating growth in the periods ahead.”

Third Fiscal Quarter 2026 Financial Results

Revenue

Revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2025, was $8.4 million, an increase of 14%, as compared to $7.4 million during the third quarter of last year primarily due to an increase in product sales.

Gross Profit/Margin

Gross profit for the third quarter of fiscal 2026 was $6.4 million, or a 76.3% gross margin, compared to gross profit of $5.1 million, or a 69.2% gross margin, for the same period in 2024. The increase in gross profit was primarily attributable to higher product sales, with incremental volume contributing to improved operating leverage and margin expansion.

Operating Expenses

For the three months ended December 31, 2025, operating expenses were $5.1 million as compared to $4.9 million for the same period in 2024. The increase in operating expenses was primarily the result of an increase in advertising and marketing and office/selling, general and administrative expenses, which were partially offset by a decrease in salaries expense.

Net Income

Net income was $910,000, or $0.003 per diluted share, for the three months ended December 31, 2025, as compared to $206,000, or $0.001 for the same period in 2024.

The decrease in cash on hand is primarily due to investments in inventory to support higher sales volumes and improve product availability, as well as increased operating activity during the period.

The Company repurchased and retired 1,143,000 and 3,703,296 shares of its common stock for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2025, respectively.

Non-GAAP Measures

In addition to disclosing financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), this document references certain non-GAAP financial measures. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as earnings excluding interest, tax, depreciation and amortization. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with useful supplemental information about our operating performance and enable comparison of financial trends and results between periods where certain items may vary, independent of business performance.
