"Fiscal 2025 was a landmark year for American Outdoor Brands, as we exceeded our expectations across the board – thanks to continued innovation momentum, strong execution, and deepening partnerships with our retail and distribution channels. A portion of our anticipated fiscal 2026 demand was accelerated by retailers who acted to secure inventory of our most popular products – and our new products – including the ClayCopter™ and the BUBBA SFS Lite™. In many cases, those decisions were not only a reflection of excitement around our innovation pipeline, but also a prudent step by our partners to get ahead of a dynamic tariff environment and broader consumer uncertainty. "We believe these actions highlight the strength of our brands and the trust we've earned with our retail partners to provide instant and reliable access to the industry's most innovative products year after year — even when the external environment is less predictable. Across the business, we made major progress on our long-term strategic goals: we successfully transitioned DTC brands like Grilla and MEAT! into retail, delivered double-digit international growth, and continued our strategic mix shift toward the Outdoor Lifestyle category, which now represents 57% of our revenue, up from 40% in fiscal 2021. "Behind the scenes, we capitalized on our operational leverage, achieving nearly 81% EBITDA growth and delivering improved efficiency across our new ERP platform and expanded distribution center. With over 400 patents and patents pending, and what we believe is the strongest product pipeline in our company's history, we're entering the new fiscal year with momentum, discipline, and a long-term strategy designed to create significant value. While macro-level unknowns remain, we are confident in our ability to adapt, respond, and continue delivering value for our stakeholders." Andrew Fulmer , Chief Financial Officer, said, "We achieved strong financial results in fiscal 2025, exceeding our prior guidance on both the top and bottom line. We saw healthy demand across our portfolio, driven by recent product launches and strong retail engagement. While some orders were accelerated by retailers into our fourth quarter, our performance throughout the year reflected consistent operating discipline, gross margin expansion, and improved profitability. We also maintained our commitment to shareholder returns, repurchasing approximately 374,000 shares during the year, and ended fiscal 2025 with a very strong, debt-free balance sheet with $23.4 million in cash. "Looking ahead, we acknowledge that the macro environment remains dynamic, particularly with respect to evolving tariff policies and consumer behavior. Given this uncertainty, combined with our retailers choosing to accelerate purchases of approximately $8 million to $10 million in orders originally planned for fiscal 2026, we are suspending our previously issued fiscal 2026 net sales guidance. This decision reflects prudence, not a change in conviction – we remain confident in our innovation capabilities, our cost discipline, and our flexible, asset-light operating model. The strategic initiatives we've implemented – enhanced retail placement, operational efficiencies, and a robust new product pipeline – give us the tools to remain agile and well-positioned for long-term growth."

Reconciliation of U.S. GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures In this press release, certain non-GAAP financial measures, including "non-GAAP net income" and "Adjusted EBITDA" are presented. A reconciliation of these and other non-GAAP financial measures is contained at the end of this press release. From time to time, the Company considers and uses these non-GAAP financial measures as supplemental measures of operating performance in order to provide the reader with an improved understanding of underlying performance trends. The Company believes it is useful for itself and the reader to review, as applicable, both (1) GAAP measures that include (i) amortization of acquired intangible assets, (ii) stock compensation, (iii) technology implementation, (iv) non-recurring inventory reserve adjustment, (v) emerging growth status transition costs, (vi) tariff drawback adjustment, (vii) income tax adjustments, (viii) interest income, (ix) income tax expense/(benefit), and (x) depreciation and amortization; and (2) the non-GAAP measures that exclude such information. The Company presents these non-GAAP measures because it considers them an important supplemental measure of its performance and believes the disclosure of such measures provides useful information to investors regarding the Company's financial condition and results of operations. The Company's definition of these adjusted financial measures may differ from similarly named measures used by others. The Company believes these measures facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period by eliminating potential differences caused by the existence and timing of certain expense items that would not otherwise be apparent on a GAAP basis. These non-GAAP measures have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the Company's GAAP measures. The principal limitations of these measures are that they do not reflect the Company's actual expenses and may thus have the effect of inflating its financial measures on a GAAP basis.
