Overview

Turning Point Brands, Inc. is a leading manufacturer, marketer and distributor of branded consumer products. We sell a wide range of products to adult consumers consisting of staple products with our iconic brands Zig-Zag® and Stoker’s® and our next-generation products to fulfill evolving consumer preferences. Among other markets, we compete in the alternative smoking accessories and Other Tobacco Products (“OTP”) industries. The alternative smoking accessories market is a dynamic market experiencing robust secular growth driven by cannabinoid legalization in the U.S. and Canada and positively evolving consumer perception and acceptance in North America. The OTP industry, which consists of non-cigarette tobacco products, exhibited flat consumer unit annualized growth during the full year period ended 2025 as reported by MSAi a third-party analytics and information company. Our segments are led by our core proprietary and iconic brands: Zig-Zag® in the Zig-Zag products segment and Stoker’s® along with FRE®, Beech-Nut® and Trophy® in the Stoker’s products segment. Our businesses generate solid cash flow which we use to invest in our business, finance acquisitions, increase brand support, expand our distribution infrastructure, and strengthen our capital position. We currently ship to approximately 900 distributors with an additional approximately 600 secondary, indirect wholesalers in the U.S. that carry and sell our products. Under the leadership of a senior management team with extensive experience in the consumer products, alternative smoking accessories and tobacco industries, we have grown and diversified our business through new product launches, category expansions and acquisitions while concurrently improving operational efficiency.

We believe there are meaningful opportunities to expand through investing in organic growth via acquisitions and joint ventures across all product categories. Our products are currently available in approximately 220,000 retail locations in North America. Our sales team targets widespread distribution to all traditional retail channels, including convenience stores, and we have a growing e-commerce business.

Recent Developments

On February 20, 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court issued a ruling regarding tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act ("IEEPA") on goods imported into the United States, concluding that such tariffs were unauthorized. The Company paid approximately $17.9 million in IEEPA tariffs.

The ruling did not address the availability, timing, or amount of any potential refunds. Subsequently, the U.S. Court of International Trade ("CIT") ordered U.S. Customs and Border Protection ("CBP") to refund the collected IEEPA tariffs. On April 20, 2026, CBP launched the Consolidated Administration and Processing of Entries ("CAPE") system to facilitate IEEPA tariff refunds. In June 2026, the Company received approximately $17.8 million of tariff refunds from CBP related to previously paid IEEPA tariffs. The refund consisted of $5.5 million in costs that were capitalized and on the balance sheet with the remaining $12.3 million recognized as a reduction of cost of goods sold.

The Company continues to monitor developments related to the ruling, including any ongoing legal, regulatory, or administrative actions. In addition, following the U.S. Supreme Court's decision, the U.S. administration announced additional tariffs under Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974 and could implement additional tariffs in the future. Changes in U.S. and foreign trade, import, and export policies could have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

Products

We operate in two segments: Zig-Zag products and Stoker’s products segments. In our Zig-Zag products segment, we principally market and distribute (i) rolling papers, tubes and related products; (ii) finished cigars and make-your-own (“MYO”) cigar wraps; and (iii) lighters and other accessories. In addition, we have a majority stake in Turning Point Brands Canada which is a specialty marketing and distribution firm focused on building brands in the Canadian cannabis accessories, tobacco and alternative products categories. In our Stoker’s products segment, we (i) manufacture and market moist snuff tobacco (“MST”); (ii) contract for and market modern oral products; and (iii) contract for and market loose-leaf chewing tobacco products.

Operations

Our Zig-Zag products and Stoker’s products segments primarily generate revenues from the sale of our products to wholesale distributors who, in turn, resell the products to retail operations. Our net sales, which include federal excise taxes, consist of gross sales net of cash discounts, returns, and selling and marketing allowances.

We rely on long-standing relationships with high-quality, established manufacturers to provide the majority of our produced products. Approximately 75% of our production, as measured by net sales, is outsourced to suppliers. The remaining production consists primarily of our moist snuff tobacco operations located in Dresden, Tennessee and Louisville, Kentucky. Our principal operating expenses include the cost of raw materials used to manufacture the limited number of our products which we produce in-house; the cost of finished products, which are generally purchased goods; federal excise taxes; legal expenses; and compensation expenses, including benefits and costs of salaried personnel.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended June 30, 2026, to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2025

Net Sales: For the three months ended June 30, 2026, consolidated net sales increased $26.3 million, or 22.6% compared to the prior year period, driven primarily by an increase in the Stoker’s products segment. 

For the three months ended June 30, 2026, net sales in the Zig-Zag products segment decreased $11.6 million, or 24.8% compared to the prior year period. The decrease in net sales was driven primarily by declines of $4.7 million in U.S. papers and wraps, $6.2 million in the Clipper lighter business, and $1.0 million in our Canadian products. We were able to sell the majority of the Clipper inventory in the prior year and do not expect meaningful additional revenue from Clipper in future periods.

For the three months ended June 30, 2026, net sales in the Stoker’s products segment increased $38.0 million, or 54.5% compared to the prior year period. The increase in net sales was primarily driven by $38.4 million of growth in modern oral products.

Gross Profit: For the three months ended June 30, 2026, consolidated gross profit increased $27.1 million, or 40.6% compared to the prior year period. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased to 65.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to 57.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The overall increase in gross profit was driven by increases in net sales in the Stoker's products segment, margin contribution from modern oral products, and $12.3 million r

The following discussion relates to the audited financial statements of Turning Point Brands, Inc., included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. In this discussion, unless the context requires otherwise, references to “the Company” “we,” “our,” or “us” refer to Turning Point Brands, Inc., and its consolidated subsidiaries. References to “TPB” refer to Turning Point Brands, Inc., without any of its subsidiaries. We were incorporated in 2004 under the name North Atlantic Holding Company, Inc. On November 4, 2015, we changed our name to Turning Point Brands, Inc. Many of the amounts and percentages in this discussion have been rounded for convenience of presentation.

Overview

Turning Point Brands, Inc. is a leading manufacturer, marketer and distributor of branded consumer products. We sell a wide range of products to adult consumers consisting of staple products with our iconic brands Zig-Zag® and Stoker’s® and our next-generation products to fulfill evolving consumer preferences. Among other markets, we compete in the alternative smoking accessories and Other Tobacco Products (“OTP”) industries. The alternative smoking accessories market is a dynamic market experiencing robust secular growth driven by cannabinoid legalization in the U.S. and Canada and positively evolving consumer perception and acceptance in North America. The OTP industry, which consists of non-cigarette tobacco products, exhibited flat consumer unit annualized growth during the full year period ended 2025 as reported by MSAi a third-party analytics and information company. Our segments are led by our core proprietary and iconic brands: Zig-Zag® in the Zig-Zag products segment and Stoker’s® along with FRE®, Beech-Nut® and Trophy® in the Stoker’s products segment. Our businesses generate solid cash flow which we use to invest in our business, finance acquisitions, increase brand support, expand our distribution infrastructure, and strengthen our capital position. We currently ship to approximately 900 distributors with an additional 600 secondary, indirect wholesalers in the U.S. that carry and sell our products. Under the leadership of a senior management team with extensive experience in the consumer products, alternative smoking accessories and tobacco industries, we have grown and diversified our business through new product launches, category expansions and acquisitions while concurrently improving operational efficiency.

We believe there are meaningful opportunities to expand through investing in organic growth via acquisitions and joint ventures across all product categories. Our products are currently available in approximately 220,000 retail locations in North America. Our sales team targets widespread distribution to all traditional retail channels, including convenience stores, and we have a growing e-commerce business.

Recent Developments

As a result of the U.S. trade policies beginning in 2025, we incurred tariff charges on certain products we import from overseas manufacturers.  Certain of these tariffs were imposed by the administration utilizing the International Emergency Economic Powers Act(IEEPA).   In February 2026, the United States Supreme Court held that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act does not authorize the president to impose tariffs and the government immediately ceased collecting such tariffs.  While this ruling prohibits the imposition of tariffs under IEEPA it does not provide for a refund mechanism, and we cannot assure as to when or how much of the tariffs the Company previously paid under IEEPA will be refunded.

In addition, the ruling does not prohibit the imposition of tariffs pursuant to other statutes.   For instance, in response to the ruling the administration imposed a blanket 10% on all products importers pursuant to section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974.

Products

We operate in two segments: Zig-Zag products and Stoker’s products segments. In our Zig-Zag products segment, we principally market and distribute (i) rolling papers, tubes, and related products; (ii) finished cigars and make-your-own (“MYO”) cigar wraps; and (iii) lighters and other accessories.  In addition, we have a majority stake in Turning Point Brands Canada which is a specialty marketing and distribution firm focused on building brands in the Canadian cannabis accessories, tobacco and alternative products categories. In our Stoker’s products segment, we (i) manufacture and market moist snuff tobacco (“MST”) and (ii) contract for and market FRE®, our modern oral product; and (iii) contract for and market loose-leaf chewing tobacco products.

We subscribe to a sales tracking system from MSAi that records all OTP product shipments (ours as well as those of our competitors) from approximately 600 wholesalers to over 265,000 traditional retail stores in the U.S. This system enables us to understand individual product share and volume trends across multiple categories down to the individual retail store level, allowing us to allocate field salesforce coverage to the highest opportunity stores. Our sales and marketing group of approximately 257 professionals utilize the MSAi system to efficiently target markets and sales channels with the highest sales potential.

Our Zig-Zag products and Stoker’s products segments primarily generate revenues from the sale of our products to wholesale distributors who, in turn, resell the products to retail operations. Our net sales, which include federal excise taxes, consist of gross sales net of cash discounts, returns, and selling and marketing allowances.

We rely on long-standing relationships with high-quality, established manufacturers to provide the majority of our produced products. Approximately 75% of our production, as measured by net sales, is outsourced to suppliers. The remaining production consists primarily of our moist snuff tobacco operations located in Dresden, Tennessee, and Louisville, Kentucky. Our principal operating expenses include the cost of raw materials used to manufacture the limited number of our products which we produce in-house; the cost of finished products, which are generally purchased goods; federal excise taxes; legal expenses; and compensation expenses, including benefits and costs of salaried personnel.
