e.l.f. Beauty Profit Doubles on $50M Tariff Refunds, Lifts Outlook
ELF sits 72% above its 52-week low of $48.82.
Summary
e.l.f. Beauty's fiscal Q1 profit nearly doubled, driven by $50 million in tariff refunds from the federal government. Net income rose about 100%, gross margin expanded 14 percentage points, and adjusted earnings hit $1.75 per share on revenue of $479 million, both above estimates. The company raised its full-year sales forecast to $1.94-$1.97 billion and adjusted EPS outlook to $3.50-$3.55, up from prior guidance. CEO Tarang Amin plans to reinvest the refund in pricing and marketing, with an additional $8 million in refunds expected. This follows a blowout Q1 report earlier today that already showed a 36% sales jump, but the tariff refunds and margin expansion are new, material details that significantly strengthen the bull case.
