HFFG HF Foods Group Inc.
Price Chart
Executive Summary
HF Foods reported Q1 2026 GAAP EPS of $0.02 (vs $0.06 consensus, a 66.7% miss) and revenue of $312.0M (vs $308.5M consensus, a 1.1% beat). Revenue grew 4.5% YoY, but gross margin compressed to 16.2% from 17.1%, and adjusted EPS declined 14.3% YoY to $0.06. The stock is likely to trade down on the EPS miss and margin pressure, partially offset by revenue growth and improved operating cash flow.
Key Financial Metrics
Actionable Insight
The EPS miss and margin compression are the dominant signals. Monitor the earnings call for guidance on gross margin trajectory and whether the revenue growth from lower-margin seafood can sustain. The improved operating cash flow is a positive, but not enough to offset the earnings disappointment.
