Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory's first quarter fiscal 2027 revenue declined as its net loss widened on higher costs.

Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory reported fiscal first quarter 2027 revenue of $6.1 million, a decrease from $6.4 million in the prior-year period. The company posted a net loss of $1.2 million, or ($0.12) per share, which widened from a loss of $0.3 million, or ($0.04) per share, year-over-year.

Key Highlights

• Net loss widened to $1.2 million from $0.3 million in the prior year, driven by a 9% increase in total costs and expenses to $7.1 million.
• EBITDA turned negative, reporting a loss of $0.6 million compared to a positive $0.2 million in the same quarter last year.
