A recall covering every Tractor Wheels flavor

On the call, Chief Executive John Foraker said the company received a single complaint from a parent about a choking incident and that the FDA later told the company it had received three reports of choking incidents, two of them submitted directly to the FDA. The company said it is not aware of any reported injuries. It decided to recall all Tractor Wheels flavors and SKUs, though it said its investigation has not yet identified a root cause linked to the reports.

Tractor Wheels share of sales

The company said Tractor Wheels accounted for approximately 18% of total company net sales year-to-date, and that sales will be affected until shipments resume. It said it is still assessing the financial impact, including product, retailer and recall-related costs, and that it is too early to give a reliable estimate of total costs or insurance recovery.

Cash and borrowing capacity

As of Sept. 30, 2026, the company had about $106 million in cash and cash equivalents and no outstanding debt, according to the filing. It also has up to $95.0 million of borrowing capacity under existing credit facilities, subject to borrowing base limits and covenants. The company said it will report full third-quarter results on Nov. 12, 2026, after the market close.

The company did not say when Tractor Wheels would return to shelves.
