QUINCY, Mass., Nov. 12, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Stran & Company, Inc. (“Stran” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: SWAG) (NASDAQ: SWAGW), a leading provider of outsourced marketing solutions specializing in promotional products and loyalty incentives, today announced its financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, and provided a business update. Management will host a conference call at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on Thursday, November 13, 2025.
“The third quarter reflected another period of disciplined execution and consistent progress,” commented Andy Shape, Chief Executive Officer of Stran. “As a result, sales increased 29.0% year-over-year to $26.0 million, and for the first nine months of 2025, sales increased 56.7% to $87.3 million. These results demonstrate the scalability of our platform and the steady demand we continue to see from both new and long-standing customers.”
“Specifically, for the Stran segment, revenue grew to $60.3 million for the nine-month period, up from $52.2 million last year, reflecting higher spend from existing enterprise customers and new account wins. Stran Loyalty Solutions (“SLS”) revenue increased sharply to $26.9 million from $3.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, highlighting the continued strength of the Gander Group acquisition completed in August 2024. That business has integrated smoothly and is now an important growth engine, expanding our presence in the casino, gaming, and hospitality sectors. Importantly, for the nine-month period, gross profit increased 49.3% to $25.4 million, net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was reduced by $2.6 million to $(1.0) million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024, while EBITDA for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 improved by $2.8 million to $(0.4) million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024 - reflecting our ability to reduce expenses and improve margins. We believe this trajectory confirms that our strategy is taking hold and that we are moving toward sustainable profitability.”
“During the quarter, we also repurchased approximately 267,000 shares of common stock at prices between $1.45 and $1.81 per share, for a total of $408,000, under our ongoing share repurchase program. We continue to view this as a disciplined and opportunistic use of capital that reflects our confidence in Stran’s long-term outlook. With a strong balance sheet of $11.8 million in cash, cash equivalents and investments, we remain well-positioned to fund growth initiatives, pursue strategic opportunities, and continue to opportunistically execute our share repurchase program, enhancing value for our shareholders.”
“We were also honored to be recognized by the Promotional Products Association International (PPAI) as one of the ‘Greatest Companies to Work For’ in 2025. At Stran, we believe that an engaged workforce directly translates into stronger execution, better client outcomes, and consistent financial performance. Being recognized by one of the industry’s leading associations validates that approach and reinforces that our people and culture are key competitive advantages. We’re proud of the environment we’ve created, one that encourages accountability, collaboration, and creativity, and we remain committed to investing in our team as we continue to scale.”
“As we move into our historically strongest quarter of the year, our focus remains consistent — deepening client relationships, improving operational efficiency through automation and data, and maintaining financial discipline as we strengthen our foundation for long-term growth. As we approach 2026, we intend to continue our momentum via continued organic growth as well as acquisitions. We’re executing with focus, managing the business responsibly, and positioning Stran to deliver sustainable value for years to come,” concluded Mr. Shape.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that the Company believes helps investors to compare its operating performance to that of other companies. “EBITDA” is defined as net income (loss) excluding interest income, income tax expense and depreciation and amortization expense. The Company believes EBITDA is an important measure of operating performance because it allows management, investors and others to evaluate and compare the Company’s core operating results from period to period by removing (i) the impact of the Company’s capital structure (interest expense from outstanding debt), (ii) tax consequences and (iii) asset base (depreciation and amortization). EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP. EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income, cash flows from operating activities or any other measure determined in accordance with GAAP. The items excluded to calculate EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing the Company’s results of operations. The Company’s EBITDA may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure of another company because other entities may not calculate EBITDA in the same manner.
The following table presents the reconciliation of EBITDA to its most comparable GAAP measure, net loss, as reported (unaudited):
