Achieved record adjusted EBITDA and positive operating cash flow of $2.2 million, driven by operational efficiency and a 315 basis point expansion in gross margins.
Initiated a voluntary safety update for camera Cable Guards following a tragic entanglement incident, resulting in a stop-ship notice for Dream Sight and Dream Duo products across retail channels.
Capitalized on a shifting competitive landscape as Amazon removed all non-FDA cleared vital sign monitors, leaving Owlet Dream Sock as the only compliant product in its category on the platform.
Expanded the connected health ecosystem with the launch of the FDA-registered Smart Thermometer, designed to drive everyday engagement and provide a lower-cost entry point to the Owlet app.
Grew the Owlet360 subscription base to 142,000 paying members, with annual plan adoption nearly tripling quarter-over-quarter to reach 13% of the total subscriber mix.
Reported a 59% year-over-year increase in Babylist registry additions, signaling strong brand resonance and demand among expecting parents despite broader market volatility.
Withdrew full-year 2026 guidance due to uncertainties regarding the timing of retailer replenishment and the potential impact of the safety update on holiday demand.
Anticipates a total net financial impact of $13 million to $18 million in Q4, comprising retailer returns, direct program costs, and partially offsetting inventory rework assets.
Expects to roll out new 'Owlet OnCall' features starting in late 2026 and continuing into 2027, including localized CDC health snapshots and a digital visit note-taker to integrate pediatric care into the app.
Plans to transition 'Owlet One' from the test-and-learn phase to a broader rollout, targeting price-sensitive segments with a lower upfront cost paired with a monthly subscription.
Assumes a potential insurance recovery of up to $10 million to offset safety program costs, though the timing and final amount remain unconfirmed.
The safety update is strictly limited to the Cable Guard accessory and does not involve the camera hardware itself or the FDA-cleared Dream Sock.
Management estimates approximately 40,000 units of Dream Sight and Dream Duo are currently in the retail channel and subject to the return process.
A stop-ship notice is in effect for retail partners, but Dream Sight and Dream Duo remain available on the company's direct website with the new enclosed Cable Guard system.
Dream Sock, which represents approximately 70% of total revenue, remains unaffected and will be available in all channels throughout the Black Friday period.

Testing shows Owlet One converts at approximately four times the non-promotional rate of the Dream Sock, reaching a new customer segment.
The $19 per month subscription model reaches a break-even point against traditional hardware sales within just a few months.
Management noted that while non-compliant products lingered past the August deadline, Amazon had removed all third-party vital sign monitors by the end of September.
Dream Sock sell-through during Amazon's October event grew 48% year-over-year, which management views as a positive signal of market leadership.
The company is utilizing an in-app update to identify affected users and facilitate free replacement orders for the new interlocking Cable Guard system.
Manufacturing of the new safety components is already active to support both direct sales and the replenishment of retail inventory.
