Ltd. in China, Sonos Japan GK in Japan, and Sonos Australia Pty Ltd. in Australia.
Basis of presentation and preparation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 27, 2025, has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements. They should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 27, 2025, (the "Annual Report"), filed with the SEC on November 14, 2025.
In management’s opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair statement of the Company’s financial position, its results of operations, and its cash flows for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the three months ended December 27, 2025, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year or any other period.
The Company operates on a 52- week or 53- week fiscal year ending on the Saturday nearest September 30 each year. The Company’s fiscal year is divided into four quarters of 13 weeks, each beginning on a Sunday and containing two 4-week periods followed by a 5-week period. An additional week is included in the fourth fiscal quarter approximately every five years to realign fiscal quarters with calendar quarters. This last occurred in the fourth quarter of the Company’s fiscal year ended October 3, 2020, and will reoccur in the fiscal year ending October 3, 2026. The three months ended December 27, 2025 and December 28, 2024, spanned 13 weeks each. As used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, "fiscal 2026" refers to the fiscal year ending October 3, 2026, "fiscal 2025" refers to the fiscal year ended September 27, 2025, and "fiscal 2024" refers to the fiscal year ending September 28, 2024..
Use of estimates and judgments
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates and judgments compared to historical experience and expected trends.
Segment Information
The Company operates as one operating segment as it only reports aggregate financial information on a consolidated basis, accompanied by disaggregated information about revenue by geographic region and product category, to its Chief Executive Officer, who is the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"). The CODM reviews financial information on a consolidated basis for purposes of making operating decisions, allocating resources, and evaluating financial performance. The CODM uses consolidated net income (loss) to measure segment profit or loss and make key operating decisions, such as allocation of the budget and monitoring budget versus actual results.
Significant expenses within net income (loss) include cost of revenue, research and development, sales and marketing, and general and administrative, which are each separately presented on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. Other segment items include interest income, interest expense, other income (expense), and provision for (benefit

from) income taxes, which are also each separately presented on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. The CODM does not evaluate segment performance or allocate resources using asset information.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
There have been no changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies, recently adopted accounting pronouncements, or recent accounting pronouncements pending adoption from those disclosed in the Annual Report, except as noted below.
Recent accounting pronouncements pending adoption
In December 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements. This update provides clarifications intended to improve the consistency and usability of interim disclosure requirements, including a comprehensive listing of required interim disclosures and a new disclosure principle for reporting material events occurring after the most recent annual reporting period. The amendments do not change the underlying objectives of interim reporting but are designed to enhance clarity in application. The amendments are effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The amendments may be applied retrospectively or prospectively, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the pronouncement to determine the impact it may have on the Company's consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures ("ASU 2023-09"). This update includes amendments that further enhance income tax disclosures, primarily through standardization and disaggregation of rate reconciliation categories and income taxes paid by jurisdiction. The amendments will be effective for our fiscal year ending October 3, 2026. The Company expects adoption of ASU 2023-09 to result in expanded income tax disclosures with no material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
3. Financial Instruments
The carrying values of the Company’s accounts receivable and accounts payable, approximate their fair values due to the short period of time to maturity or repayment. The Company utilizes the following fair value hierarchy to establish priorities of the inputs used to measure fair value:
Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Observable inputs other than quoted market prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Marketable securities
As of December 27, 2025, the Company held no securities with original maturities exceeding one year. There were no realized gains or losses on sales of marketable securities during the three months ended December 27, 2025.
For securities in an unrealized loss position, the Company does not intend to sell the securities, and it is more-likely-than-not that it will not be required to sell before recovery of their amortized cost basis. The Company evaluated whether the decline in fair value resulted from credit losses or other factors and concluded these amounts were related to temporary fluctuations in value of the securities and were due primarily to changes in interest rates and market conditions of the underlying securities. Accordingly, an allowance for credit losses was deemed unnecessary for these securities as of December 27, 2025.
Accrued interest receivable related to our marketable securities was nominal as of December 27, 2025. No accrued interest receivables were written off during the three months ended December 27, 2025.

6. Debt
On October 13, 2021, the Company entered into a Revolving Credit Agreement (the "Revolving Credit Agreement") which was amended in October 2025 (“Amendment No. 2") with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., KeyBank National Association and Goldman Sachs Bank USA. Amendment No. 2 provides for (i) a five-year senior secured revolving credit facility in the amount of up to 80.0 million and (ii) an uncommitted incremental facility subject to certain conditions. Proceeds are to be used for working capital and general corporate purposes. The facility may be drawn as an Alternative Base Rate Loan (at 1.00% plus an applicable margin) or Term Benchmark Loan (SOFR plus an applicable margin). The Company must also pay (i) an unused commitment fee ranging from 0.200% to 0.275% per annum of the average daily unused portion of the aggregate revolving credit commitment under the agreement and (ii) a per annum fee equal to the applicable margin over SOFR multiplied by the aggregate face amount of outstanding letters of credit. As of December 27, 2025, the Company did not have any outstanding borrowings and had $2.4 million in undrawn letters of credit that reduce the availability under the Revolving Credit Agreement.

The Company's obligations under the Revolving Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of its assets. The Revolving Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, customary affirmative and negative covenants, a financial covenant that is tested quarterly and requires the Company to maintain a certain consolidated leverage ratio, and customary events of default. As of December 27, 2025, the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants under the Revolving Credit Agreement.
7. Commitments and Contingencies
Legal proceedings
From time to time, the Company is involved in legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business, including claims relating to employee relations, business practices, and patent infringement. Litigation can be expensive and disruptive to normal business operations. Moreover, the results of complex legal proceedings are difficult to predict, and the Company’s view of these matters may change in the future as the litigation and events related thereto unfold. The Company expenses legal fees as incurred. The Company records a provision for contingent losses when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. An unfavorable outcome to any legal matter, if material, could have an adverse effect on the Company’s operations or its financial position, liquidity or results of operations.
The Company’s Lawsuits Against Google:
On January 7, 2020, the Company filed a complaint with the U.S. International Trade Commission ("ITC") against Alphabet Inc. ("Alphabet") and Google LLC ("Google") and a counterpart lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California against Google. The complaint and lawsuit each allege infringement by Alphabet and Google of certain Sonos patents related to its smart speakers and related technology. The counterpart lawsuit was stayed pending completion of the ITC investigation and appeal thereof. The ITC concluded its investigation in January 2022, finding all five of the Company’s asserted patents to be valid and infringed by Google, and further finding that one redesign per patent proposed by Google would avoid infringement. The ITC issued a limited exclusion order and a cease-and-desist order with respect to Google’s infringing products. The Company and Google each appealed the ITC’s determination, which was upheld in its entirety by the appeals court. The stay in the counterpart lawsuit has been lifted. Google moved to file counterclaims on two of its own patents related to device setup and the court has added those patents to the case. No trial date has been set.
On September 29, 2020, the Company filed another lawsuit against Google alleging infringement of additional Sonos patents and seeking monetary damages and other non-monetary relief. A jury trial was held in May 2023, which found one Sonos patent to be infringed and another Sonos patent not infringed, and returned an award of $32.5 million based on a royalty rate of $2.30 per infringing unit. After trial, the court held Sonos’ patents unenforceable under the doctrine of prosecution laches and invalid as a result of amendments made during prosecution. In September 2025, the Federal Circuit overturned the lower court decision that had invalidated the jury verdict against Google, and is now set to decide the post-trial motions, including the Company’s motion for injunctive relief and additional damages.
Google’s Lawsuits Against the Company:
On June 11, 2020, Google filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California against the Company alleging infringement by the Company of five Google patents and seeking monetary damages and other non-monetary relief. All five of these patents have since been found invalid or non-infringed by the Court or by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office or have been withdrawn from the case by Google. The Court has now entered final judgment for Sonos and against Google. Google has appealed the non-infringement rulings.
On August 8, 2022, Google filed two complaints with the ITC against the Company and two counterpart lawsuits in the Northern District of California against the Company, collectively alleging infringement by the Company of seven Google patents generally related to wireless charging, device setup, and voice control, and seeking monetary damages and other non-monetary relief. The counterpart lawsuits are stayed pending completion of the ITC investigations. In the first ITC investigation, the ITC terminated the investigation as to one Google patent as a result of the expiration of that Google patent and determined the other two Google patents to be invalid as indefinite, thus concluding the first investigation. Google has appealed this first ITC determination. The second ITC investigation concluded in December 2023 with a final determination of no violation by the Company. Google did not appeal this determination.
Implicit
On March 10, 2017, Implicit, LLC (“Implicit”) filed a patent infringement action in the United States District Court, District of Delaware against the Company. Implicit is asserting that the Company has infringed on certain claims of two patents in this case. The Company denies the allegations. The claims at issue have been held unpatentable by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. Implicit has appealed this ruling, and an oral argument related to the appeal was held by the Federal Circuit in October 2025. A range of loss, if any, associated with this matter is not probable or reasonably estimable as of December 27, 2025.

8. Stockholders' Equity
On February 24, 2025, the Board of Directors (the "Board") authorized a common stock repurchase program of up to $150.0 million. During the three months ended December 27, 2025, the Company repurchased 1,488,226 shares for an aggregate purchase price of $25.0 million and at an average price of $16.79 per share under the repurchase program. Aggregate purchase price and average price per share exclude commission and excise tax. As of December 27, 2025, the Company had $104.6 million available for share repurchases under the share repurchase program. The Company's share repurchases in excess of issuances are subject to a 1% excise tax enacted by the Inflation Reduction Act. Any excise tax incurred is recognized as part of the cost basis of the shares acquired in the condensed consolidated statements of equity.
Treasury stock during the three months ended December 27, 2025, included 655,542 shares withheld to satisfy employees' tax withholding requirements in connection with vesting of stock awards. Additionally, during the three months ended December 27, 2025, the Company retired 1,927,278 shares of treasury stock.

10. Income Taxes
The Company’s income tax provision and the resulting effective tax rate for interim periods is generally determined based upon its estimated annual effective tax rate ("AETR"), adjusted for the effect of discrete items arising in that quarter. The impact of such inclusions could result in a higher or lower effective tax rate during a quarter, based upon the mix and timing of actual earnings or losses versus annual projections. In each quarter, the Company updates its estimate of the AETR, and if the estimated AETR changes, a cumulative adjustment is made in that quarter.
The Company recorded an income tax provision of $8.3 million and an income tax benefit of $6.4 million for the three months ended December 27, 2025 and December 28, 2024, respectively, related to U.S. and non-U.S. income taxes. The effective tax rate for the three months ended December 27, 2025 was favorably impacted by provisions of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act ("OBBBA"), including the repeal of the requirement to capitalize and amortize specified domestic research and experimental expenditures under Section 174 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code. This resulted in a reduction in the Company’s US current tax expense with no impact to deferred tax expense as a result of the full valuation allowance maintained against the Company’s net U.S. deferred tax assets. The tax benefit for the three months ended December 28, 2024 primarily resulted from the application of a negative annual effective tax rate to year-to-date U.S. pre-tax income for the quarter, which was driven in part by the capitalization of research and experimental expenditures under Section 174 and the valuation allowance maintained against U.S. deferred tax assets.
In 2021, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (“OECD”) released model rules for a global minimum tax (“Pillar Two Rules”), intended to ensure that large multinational enterprises are subject to an effective minimum tax rate of 15% in each jurisdiction in which they operate. Certain jurisdictions in which the Company conducts business have enacted local legislation implementing Pillar Two or equivalent minimum tax rules that apply for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2024. In January 2026, the OECD released administrative guidance describing a coordinated “side-by-side” package applicable to certain U.S.-parented multinational groups for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2026. Based on currently enacted legislation and available guidance, the Company does not expect the Pillar Two Rules to have a material impact on its effective tax rate for fiscal year 2026. The Company continues to monitor developments in Pillar Two legislation and guidance and will assess the impact of any legislative changes to future periods.
For the three months ended December 27, 2025, the Company concluded that a full valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets in the U.S. continued to be appropriate considering cumulative pre-tax losses in recent years and uncertainty with respect to future taxable income. Release of the valuation allowance in the U.S. would result in a benefit to the income tax provision in the period the release is recorded, which could have a material impact on net earnings. The timing and amount of the potential valuation allowance release are subject to significant management judgment, as well as prospective earnings in the U.S.

11. Earnings Per Share
Earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding less shares subject to repurchase. Diluted earnings per share adjusts the basic earnings per share and the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the potentially dilutive impact of stock awards, using the treasury stock method.
The following table sets forth the computation of the Company’s basic and diluted earnings per share:

12. Retirement Plans
The Company has a defined contribution 401(k) plan (the "401(k) Plan") for the Company’s U.S.-based employees, as well as various defined contribution plans for its international employees. Eligible U.S. employees may make tax-deferred contributions under the 401(k) plan but are limited to the maximum annual dollar amount allowable under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The Company matches contributions towards the 401(k) Plan and international defined contribution plans. The Company's matching contributions totaled $2.1 million and $2.3 million for the three months ended December 27, 2025 and December 28, 2024, respectively.

Item 2. Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with our audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report.
We operate on a 52- week or 53- week fiscal year ending on the Saturday nearest September 30 each year. Our fiscal year is divided into four quarters of 13 weeks, each beginning on a Sunday and containing two 4-week periods followed by a 5-week period. An additional week is included in the fourth fiscal quarter approximately every five years to realign fiscal quarters with calendar quarters.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including statements regarding future operations and performance, are forward-looking statements. In some cases, forward-looking statements may be identified by words such as "believe," "may," "will," "estimate," "continue," "anticipate," "intend," "could," "would," "expect," "objective," "plan," "potential," "seek," "grow," "target," "if," and similar expressions intended to identify forward-looking statements. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy, short-term and long-term business operations, objectives, restructuring efforts, cost initiatives, timing of certain tax impacts and financial needs. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including those described in the section titled "Risk Factors" set forth in Part I, Item 1A of the Annual Report and in our other SEC filings. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the future events and trends discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may not occur and actual results may differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements. You should read this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q with the understanding that our actual future results, levels of activity, performance and events and circumstances may be materially different from what we expect. Except as required by law, we do not undertake any obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.
Overview
Sonos is a leading audio company dedicated to elevating life through sound. Since pioneering multi-room wireless audio in 2005, Sonos has built a system that unites every dimension of sound - music, movies, stories and conversations - into one connected platform. The portfolio includes home theater speakers, components, plug-in and portable speakers, and headphones that compound in value with every room and device its customers add. Known for exceptional sound, thoughtful design, ease of use and seamless access to the world’s audio content, Sonos is trusted by more than 17 million households in 60+ countries around the world.
We are building on the strong foundation established during our transformational year in fiscal 2025. With Tom Conrad now in place as our Chief Executive Officer we are well-positioned to continue building upon the improvements we have made to our software products and operational efficiency. Under Mr. Conrad's direction, we have restored our software with reliability now exceeding historical levels, reorganized our operations to improve our efficiency and effectiveness and recommitted to delivering the kind of premium experience our customers expect. We have also recommitted to new product introductions, including the announcement of Amp Multi in January 2026. With every new product, software feature and integration, the Sonos platform becomes more powerful, provides greater value to our customers, and further strengthens as the differentiated system for connected home audio.
Our cost transformation initiative, which began in fiscal 2024, has delivered meaningful results. The organizational restructuring we completed—including workforce reductions of 6% in August 2024 and 12% in February 2025—has created a more streamlined, agile organization. We remain focused on transformation efforts to continually improve both our operational efficiency and effectiveness. Additionally, during the third quarter of fiscal 2025, we began the process of exiting a partnership with one of our contract manufacturers to consolidate and improve supply chain efficiency. We expect to complete this exit with minimal disruption to our business by the second quarter of fiscal 2026. We continue to maintain diversified contract manufacturing partnerships.
Macroeconomic environment
Our business and financial performance depend significantly on worldwide economic conditions. We face global macroeconomic challenges such as inflation, ongoing geopolitical conflicts, uncertainty in the financial markets, volatility in exchange rates, low or negative growth in certain regions, declining consumer sentiment of international customers towards U.S.-based companies as a result of
19

Table of contents
U.S. trade policy, and uncertainty in consumer demand. In addition, our business may be adversely impacted by the potential expansion of tariffs on goods imported into the U.S., as well as any retaliatory tariffs or policies enacted in other countries or any "trade wars."
Global economic and political conditions and uncertainties, including global trade tensions, have caused and may continue to cause volatility in demand for our products as well as cost of materials and logistics, and as a result may impact our results of operations. We are continuing to evaluate and implement mitigating actions, including taking measures to manage our expenses and contain costs, leveraging our supply chain flexibility and evaluating potential pricing and promotion strategies.
For additional information, see Part II, Item 1A "Risk Factors."
Seasonality
Historically, we have typically experienced the highest levels of revenue in the first fiscal quarter of the year coinciding with the holiday shopping season and our promotional activities.
Key Metrics
In addition to the measures presented in our condensed consolidated financial statements, we use the following key metrics to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business and assist us in making operational and strategic decisions. Our key metrics are total revenue, products sold, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA margin. The most directly comparable financial measure calculated under U.S. GAAP for Adjusted EBITDA is net income. The most directly comparable financial measure calculated under U.S. GAAP for Adjusted EBITDA margin is net income margin.

Products Sold
Products sold represents the number of products that are sold during a period, net of returns, and includes units sold from the Sonos speakers and Sonos system products categories, as well as architectural speakers sold through our partnerships from our Partner products and other revenue category. Growth rates between products sold and revenue are not perfectly correlated because our revenue is affected by other variables, such as the mix of products sold during the period, promotional discount activity, the price at which we sell our products, the introduction of new products that may have higher or lower than average selling prices, the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations, as well as the impact of recognition of previously deferred revenue.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we use Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, and constant currency which are non-GAAP financial measures. We use these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate our operating performance and trends and make planning decisions. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in our business that could otherwise be masked by the effect of the expenses and other items that we exclude from these non-GAAP financial measures. Accordingly, we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results, enhancing the overall understanding of our past

performance and future prospects, and allowing for greater transparency with respect to a key financial metric used by our management in its financial and operational decision-making.
We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income adjusted to exclude the impact of depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, interest income, interest expense, other income (expense), income taxes, legal and transaction related costs, restructuring and other costs, and other items that we do not consider representative of underlying operating performance. We define Adjusted EBITDA margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue.
We present percentage sales growth in constant currency to show performance unaffected by fluctuations in currency exchange rates. We calculate constant currency growth percentages by translating our current period financial results using the prior period average currency exchange rates and comparing these amounts to our prior period reported results.
These non-GAAP financial measures are not based on standardized methodology prescribed by U.S. GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Furthermore, other companies may not publish these or similar metrics. These metrics may also have certain limitations as they do not include the impact of certain expenses that are reflected in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, including stock-based compensation, which has been and will continue to be, a significant recurring expense for our business and an important part of our compensation strategy. Because of these limitations, these non-GAAP financial measures should be considered along with other operating and financial performance measures presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

We generate substantially all of our revenue from the sale of Sonos speakers and Sonos system products. We also generate a portion of revenue from Partner products and other revenue sources, such as architectural speakers from our Sonance partnership, accessories such as speaker stands and wall mounts, professional services, licensing, and advertising revenue.
Total revenue decreased $5.2 million, or 0.9%, for the three months ended December 27, 2025 compared to the three months ended December 28, 2024, attributable to softer demand due to market conditions, partially offset by favorability from foreign exchange rates.
Sonos speakers revenue represented 84.2% of total revenue for the three months ended December 27, 2025 and decreased 1.7% compared to the three months ended December 28, 2024, primarily driven by expected declines in Arc, as well as Sub and portables, partially offset by higher sales of Arc Ultra and Era 100. Sonos system products represented 11.9% of total revenue for the three months ended December 27, 2025 and increased 7.9% compared to the three months ended December 28, 2024, due to higher sales to our installed solutions channel. Partner products and other revenue represented 3.9% of total revenue for the three months ended December 27, 2025 and decreased 8.9% compared to the three months ended December 28, 2024.

Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue consists of product costs, including costs of our contract manufacturers for production, components, shipping and handling, tariffs, duty costs, warranty replacement costs, packaging, fulfillment costs, manufacturing and tooling equipment depreciation, warehousing costs, hosting costs, and excess and obsolete inventory write-downs. It also includes licensing costs, such as royalties to third parties, and amortization attributable to acquired developed technology. In addition, we allocate certain costs related to management and facilities, personnel-related expenses, and supply chain logistic costs. Personnel-related expenses consist of salaries, bonuses, benefits, and stock-based compensation expenses.
Cost of revenue decreased $17.2 million, or 5.6%, for the three months ended December 27, 2025 compared to the three months ended December 28, 2024, primarily due to a decrease in product and material costs and inventory-related write-downs, partially offset by increased tariff expenses.
Gross Margin
Our gross margin fluctuates from period to period based on a number of factors, including the mix of products we sell, the mix of channels through which we sell our products, fluctuations of our product and material cost savings, fluctuations in our product and material and logistics markets, product pricing strategies and promotional activity, the foreign currency in which our products are sold, and tariffs and duty costs implemented by governmental authorities.
Gross margin increased 270 basis points for the three months ended December 27, 2025 compared to the three months ended December 28, 2024, primarily due to a decrease in product and material costs and inventory-related write-downs, in addition to foreign exchange rate favorability and the net impact of pricing changes, partially offset by tariff expenses and unfavorable product mix.

Research and Development
Research and development expenses consist primarily of personnel-related expenses, third-party resource expenses, tooling, test equipment, prototype materials, and related overhead costs. To date, software development costs have been expensed as incurred because the period between achieving technological feasibility and the release of the software has been short and development costs qualifying for capitalization have been insignificant.
Research and development expenses decreased $21.1 million, or 26.1%, for the three months ended December 27, 2025, compared to the three months ended December 28, 2024. This decrease was primarily driven by lower personnel-related costs due to lower headcount and our reorganization efforts.
Sales and Marketing
Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of advertising and marketing activity for our products and personnel-related expenses, maintenance and repair expenses for our product displays, as well as depreciation, customer experience expenses, revenue related sales fees from our direct-to-consumer and installer solution sales channels, and related overhead costs.
Sales and marketing expenses decreased $21.4 million, or 24.7%, for the three months ended December 27, 2025, compared to the three months ended December 28, 2024. This decrease was primarily driven by ongoing savings resulting from our cost transformation initiatives, lower marketing costs due to the timing of our launch of Arc Ultra in October 2024, and lower personnel-related costs due to lower headcount.

General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses consist of administrative personnel-related expenses for our information technology, finance, legal, human resources, and similar personnel, as well as the costs of professional services, information technology, litigation, patents, related overhead, and other administrative expenses.
General and administrative expenses increased $2.2 million, or 8.4%, for the three months ended December 27, 2025, compared to the three months ended December 28, 2024. This increase was primarily driven by an increase in legal fees mainly related to our IP litigation, partially offset by lower personnel-related costs due to lower headcount.

Interest income consists primarily of interest income earned on our cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities balances. Interest expense consists primarily of interest expense associated with our debt financing arrangements and amortization of debt issuance costs. Other income (expense), net consists primarily of our foreign currency exchange gains and losses relating to transactions and remeasurement of asset and liability balances denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. We expect our foreign currency gains and losses to continue to fluctuate in the future due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates.
Interest income for the three months ended December 27, 2025 compared to the three months ended December 28, 2024, decreased due to higher international cash balances with lower yields. Interest expense for the three months ended December 27, 2025 compared to the three months ended December 28, 2024, remained relatively consistent. Other income (expense), net for the three months ended December 27, 2025 compared to the three months ended December 28, 2024, increased from other expenses of $6.0 million for the three months ended December 28, 2024 to other income of $0.4 million for the three months ended December 27, 2025 due to foreign currency exchange fluctuations.

$8,270 $(6,422)$14,692 *
* Not meaningful
We are subject to income taxes in the United States and foreign jurisdictions in which we operate. Foreign jurisdictions have statutory tax rates different from those in the United States. Accordingly, our effective tax rate will vary depending on jurisdictional mix of earnings, and changes in tax laws. In addition, certain U.S. tax regulations subject the earnings of our non-U.S. subsidiaries to current taxation in the United States. Our effective tax rate will be impacted by our ability to claim deductions and foreign tax credits to offset the taxation of foreign earnings in the United States. On July 4, 2025, H.R. 1, commonly referred to as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”), was enacted. The legislation includes provisions such as accelerated cost recovery of qualified property, immediate expensing of U.S.-based research and development costs, and changes to the U.S. international taxation regime.

Table of contents
We recognized an income tax provision of $8.3 million and an income tax benefit of $6.4 million for the three months ended December 27, 2025 and December 28, 2024, respectively. For the three months ended December 27, 2025, the repeal of the requirement to capitalize research and experimental expenditures under the OBBBA resulted in a reduction in the Company’s U.S. current tax expense with no impact to deferred tax expense as a result of the full valuation allowance maintained against the Company’s net U.S. deferred tax assets. The tax benefit for the three months ended December 28, 2024 primarily resulted from the application of a negative annual effective tax rate to year-to-date U.S. pre-tax income for the quarter, which was driven in part by the capitalization of research and experimental expenditures under Section 174 and the valuation allowance maintained against U.S. deferred tax assets.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our operations are financed primarily through cash flows from operating activities. As of December 27, 2025, our principal sources of liquidity consisted of cash flows from operating activities, cash and cash equivalents of $312.5 million, including $195.7 million held by our foreign subsidiaries, marketable securities of $51.0 million, proceeds from the exercise of stock options, and borrowing capacity under the credit facility under our Revolving Credit Agreement. In accordance with our policy, the undistributed earnings of our non-U.S. subsidiaries remain indefinitely reinvested outside of the United States as of December 27, 2025, as they are required to fund needs outside of the United States. In the event funds from foreign operations are needed to fund operations in the United States and if U.S. tax has not already been previously provided, we may be required to accrue and pay additional U.S. taxes to repatriate these funds.
As of December 27, 2025, our open purchase orders to contract manufacturers for finished goods were approximately $125 million, the majority of which are expected to be paid over the next six months. As of December 27, 2025, our expected commitments to suppliers for components were in the range of $141 million to $159 million, the majority of which is expected to be paid and/or utilized by our contract manufacturers in building finished goods within the next two years. The expected commitments are subject to change as a result of fluctuations in the demand forecast, as well as ongoing negotiations with contract manufacturers and suppliers. These commitments are related to components that can be specific to Sonos products and comprised 1) indirect obligations to third-party manufacturers and suppliers, 2) the inventory owned by contract manufacturers procured to manufacture Sonos products, and 3) purchase commitments made by contract manufacturers to their upstream suppliers.
We believe our existing cash and cash equivalent balances, cash flows from operations and committed credit lines will be sufficient to meet our long-term working capital and capital expenditure needs for at least the next 12 months. We hold our cash with a diverse group of major financial institutions and have processes and safeguards in place to manage our cash balances and mitigate the risk of loss. In October 2021, we entered into the Revolving Credit Agreement, which was amended in October 2025 to provide for aggregate commitments of up to $80.0 million with a maturity date in October 2030. Our future capital requirements may vary materially from those currently planned and will depend on many factors, including our rate of revenue growth, the timing and extent of spending on research and development efforts and other business initiatives, our planned sales and marketing activities, the timing of new product introductions, our potential merger and acquisition activity, market acceptance of our products, and overall economic conditions. To the extent that current and anticipated sources of liquidity are insufficient to fund our future business activities and requirements, we may be required to seek additional equity or debt financing. The sale of additional equity would result in increased dilution to our stockholders. If we were to incur additional debt financing, it would result in increased debt service obligations and the instruments governing such debt could require additional operating and financing covenants that would restrict our operations.
Debt Obligations

On October 13, 2021, we entered into the Revolving Credit Agreement which was amended in October 2025 with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., KeyBank National Association and Goldman Sachs Bank USA. Amendment No. 2 to the Revolving Credit Agreement provides for (i) a five-year senior secured revolving credit facility in the amount of up to $80.0 million and (ii) an uncommitted incremental facility subject to certain conditions. Proceeds are to be used for working capital and general corporate purposes. The facility may be drawn as an Alternative Base Rate Loan (at 1.00% plus an applicable margin) or Term Benchmark Loan (SOFR plus an applicable margin). We must also pay (i) an unused commitment fee ranging from 0.200% to 0.275% per annum of the average daily unused portion of the aggregate revolving credit commitment under the agreement and (ii) a per annum fee equal to the applicable margin over SOFR multiplied by the aggregate face amount of outstanding letters of credit. As of December 27, 2025, we did not have any outstanding borrowings and had $2.4 million in undrawn letters of credit that reduce the availability under the Revolving Credit Agreement.
Our obligations under the Revolving Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of our assets. The Revolving Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, customary affirmative and negative covenants, a financial covenant that is tested quarterly and requires us to maintain a certain consolidated leverage ratio, and customary events of default. As of December 27, 2025, we were in compliance with all financial covenants under the Revolving Credit Agreement

Net increase in cash and cash equivalents
$137,836 $110,223 
Cash flows from operating activities
Net cash provided by operating activities of $163.3 million for the three months ended December 27, 2025, consisted of net income of $93.8 million, non-cash adjustments of $29.8 million, and a favorable impact of net changes in operating assets and liabilities of $39.7 million. Non-cash adjustments primarily consisted of stock-based compensation expense and depreciation and amortization. The net increase in cash from the change in operating assets and liabilities was primarily due to a decrease in inventories of $45.5 million due to higher sales volumes during the holiday season, an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $31.2 million, and an increase in other liabilities of $5.2 million. The net increase in cash from the change in operating assets and liabilities was partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable of $49.1 million.
Cash flows from investing activities
Cash used in investing activities of $4.1 million for the three months ended December 27, 2025, primarily consisted of the purchases of marketable securities of $12.5 million and purchases of property and equipment of $6.0 million mainly related to manufacturing-related tooling and test equipment to support the launch of new products, partially offset by cash provided by maturities of marketable securities of $14.4 million.
Cash flows from financing activities
Cash used in financing activities of $23.4 million for the three months ended December 27, 2025, primarily consisted of payments for repurchases of common stock of $25.0 million, and payments for repurchases of common stock related to shares withheld for tax in connection with vesting of stock awards of $10.9 million, partially offset by proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $13.2 million.
Commitments and Contingencies
See Note 7. Commitments and Contingencies in the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, and related disclosures. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Our estimates are based on historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Other than items discussed in Note 2 of our condensed consolidated financial statements, there have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies as compared to the critical accounting policies and significant judgments and estimates disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Item 3.     Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are exposed to financial market risks, including changes in currency exchange rates and interest rates. For quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk, refer to Part II, Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. Our exposure to market risk has not changed materially, except as follows:
Foreign Currency Risk
Our inventory purchases are primarily denominated in U.S. dollars. Our international sales are primarily denominated in foreign currencies and any movement in the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the currencies in which we conduct sales in foreign countries could have an impact on our revenue, principally for sales denominated in the euro and the British pound. A portion of our operating expenses are incurred outside the United States and are denominated in foreign currencies, which are also subject to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. In certain countries where we may invoice customers in the local currency our revenues benefit from a weaker dollar and are adversely affected by a stronger dollar. The opposite impact occurs in countries where we record expenses in local currencies. In those cases, our costs and expenses benefit from a stronger dollar and are adversely affected by a weaker dollar.
We have not entered into any material foreign exchange contracts or derivatives to hedge any foreign currency exposures. The volatility of exchange rates depends on many factors that we cannot forecast with reliable accuracy. Our continued international expansion increases our exposure to exchange rate fluctuations and, as a result, such fluctuations could have a significant impact on our future results of operations.
For the three months ended December 27, 2025 and December 28, 2024, we recognized a gain from foreign currency exchange of $0.4 million and a loss of $6.0 million, respectively. Based on transactions denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar as of December 27, 2025, a hypothetical adverse change of 10% would have resulted in an adverse impact on income before provision for income taxes of approximately $9.2 million for the three months ended December 27, 2025.
Item 4.     Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as required under Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act") as of December 27, 2025. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Changes in Internal Control
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting in management's evaluation pursuant to Rule 13a-15(f) during the quarter ended December 27, 2025, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Our operations and financial results are subject to various risks and uncertainties, including the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 27, 2025, which could adversely affect our business, reputation, financial condition and operating results, and affect the trading price of our common stock.
