Tom Conrad inherited a Sonos (NASDAQ:SONO) in disarray, damaged by a botched app redesign and a shrinking top line. Roughly 18 months into his tenure, the company is growing again, expanding margins, and returning cash. Shares closed most recently at $14.66, up 35.6% over one year but down 16.5% year to date, with a market cap around $1.73 billion.

The Turnaround Scorecard Conrad’s fingerprints are on every line of the income statement. A 12% workforce reduction in February 2025 carrying $33.49 million in charges reset the cost base. Operating expenses in Q1 FY2026 fell to $153.04 million from $193.31 million a year prior, helping the quarter produce more profit than all of fiscal 2025, with adjusted EBITDA of $132.14 million at a 24.2% margin.
