•Entered into a $100 million accelerated share repurchase agreement

Matt Reintjes, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “First quarter results were highlighted by balanced, double-digit growth across both our wholesale and direct-to-consumer channels, as well as our Drinkware and Coolers & Equipment categories. This performance was punctuated by our international sales mix reaching a record 19% coupled with re-acceleration in domestic growth. Profitability continued to show strength with both adjusted gross margin and adjusted operating margin expanding nearly 450 basis points during the period. Additionally, we completed our previously announced acquisitions, and entered into a $100 million accelerated share repurchase agreement.”

Mr. Reintjes continued, “We remain confident as we move into the second quarter and second half of the year. We are well positioned in Coolers & Equipment to leverage new innovation, expanded color options, and impactful product marketing. On top of that, we continue to see strong demand for our diverse range of Drinkware, as our brand continues to grow both domestically and internationally.”

First Quarter 2024 Results

Sales and adjusted sales both increased 13% to $341.4 million, compared to $302.8 million during the same period last year.

•Direct-to-consumer (“DTC”) channel sales increased 12% to $187.8 million, compared to $167.0 million in the prior year quarter, due to growth in both Drinkware and Coolers & Equipment.

•Wholesale channel sales increased 13% to $153.6 million, compared to $135.8 million in the same period last year, due to growth in both Coolers & Equipment and Drinkware.

•Drinkware sales increased 13% to $214.6 million, compared to $190.3 million in the prior year quarter, driven by the continued expansion and innovation of our Drinkware product offerings and new seasonal colorways.

•Coolers & Equipment sales increased 15% to $119.9 million, compared to $104.4 million in the same period last year, driven by strong performance in bags, soft coolers, and hard coolers.

Gross profit increased 20% to $194.8 million, or 57.1% of sales, compared to $161.9 million, or 53.5% of sales, in the first quarter of 2023. The 360 basis point increase in gross margin was primarily due to lower inbound freight costs and lower product costs.

Adjusted gross profit increased $35.7 million to $196.4 million, or 57.5% of adjusted sales, compared to $160.6 million, or 53.0% of adjusted sales, in the first quarter of 2023. The 450 basis point increase in gross margin was primarily due to lower inbound freight costs and lower product costs.

Selling, general, and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses increased 15% to $169.0 million, compared to $146.8 million in the first quarter of 2023. As a percentage of sales, SG&A expenses increased 100 basis points to 49.5% from 48.5% in the prior year period. This increase was primarily due to higher employee costs and marketing expenses, partially offset by lower warehousing costs.

Adjusted SG&A expenses increased 13% to $156.8 million, compared to $139.0 million in the first quarter of 2023. As a percentage of adjusted sales, adjusted SG&A expenses were flat at 45.9% compared to the prior year period, as higher employee costs and marketing expenses were offset by lower warehousing costs.

Operating income increased 71.0% to $25.8 million, or 7.6% of sales, compared to $15.1 million, or 5.0% of sales during the prior year quarter.

Adjusted operating income increased 82% to $39.6 million, or 11.6% of adjusted sales, compared to $21.7 million, or 7.2% of adjusted sales during the same period last year.

Net income increased 50% to $15.9 million, or 4.6% of sales, compared to $10.6 million, or 3.5% of sales in the prior year quarter; Net income per diluted share was $0.18, compared to $0.12 in the prior year quarter.

Adjusted net income increased 89% to $29.3 million, or 8.6% of adjusted sales, compared to $15.5 million, or 5.1% of adjusted sales in the prior year quarter; Adjusted net income per diluted share increased 89% to $0.34, compared to $0.18 per diluted share in the prior year quarter.

Balance Sheet and Other Highlights

Cash increased $6.1 million to $173.9 million, compared to $167.8 million at the end of the first quarter of 2023.

Inventory increased 5% to $363.9 million, compared to $347.0 million at the end of the prior year quarter.

Total debt, excluding finance leases and unamortized deferred financing fees, was $81.2 million, compared to $84.4 million at the end of the first quarter of 2023. During the first quarter of 2024, we made mandatory debt payments of $1.1 million.

Updated 2024 Outlook

Mr. Reintjes concluded, “With the bulk of the year ahead of us, we are maintaining our topline outlook as we weigh our strong first quarter execution with the ongoing uncertainties that persist in the market. However, with the continued momentum in our gross margin improvement and the execution of our accelerated share repurchase, we have raised our full year bottom line range. We remain focused on strategic investments to drive the YETI brand, product innovation, channel growth and global expansion.”

For Fiscal 2024, YETI expects:

•Adjusted sales to increase between 7% and 9% (consistent with previous outlook);

•Adjusted operating income as a percentage of adjusted sales between 16.0% and 16.5% (versus previous outlook of approximately 16.0%);

•An effective tax rate of approximately 25.3% (compared to 24.8% in the prior year period);

•Adjusted net income per diluted share between $2.49 and $2.62 (versus previous outlook of between $2.45 and $2.50), reflecting an 11% to 16% increase;

•Diluted weighted average shares outstanding of approximately 86.1 million (versus previous outlook of 87.4 million); and

•Capital expenditures of approximately $60 million primarily to support investments in technology and new product innovation.

2024 Accelerated Share Repurchase

As previously announced, during the first quarter of 2024, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program of up to $300 million of YETI’s common stock (the “Share Repurchase Program”). On February 27, 2024, we entered into an accelerated share repurchase agreement (the “ASR Agreement”) with Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Goldman Sachs”) to repurchase $100 million of YETI’s common stock. Pursuant to the ASR Agreement, we made a payment of $100 million to Goldman Sachs and received an initial delivery of approximately 2.0 million shares of YETI’s common stock. In the second quarter of 2024, the ASR Agreement was completed, and we received approximately 0.6 million additional shares of YETI’s common stock. The ASR Agreement resulted in the total repurchase of approximately 2.6 million shares. As of March 30, 2024, $200 million remained available under the Share Repurchase Program.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to our results determined in accordance with GAAP, we supplement our results with non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted net sales, adjusted gross profit, adjusted SG&A expenses, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted share as well as adjusted gross profit and adjusted SG&A expenses, adjusted operating income and adjusted net income as a percentage of adjusted net sales. Our management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with GAAP financial measures to measure our profitability and to evaluate our financial performance. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the underlying operating performance of our business and are appropriate to enhance an overall understanding of our financial performance. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with our results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. Because of these limitations, these non-GAAP financial measures should be considered along with GAAP financial performance measures. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to such GAAP measures can be found below.

YETI does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP to GAAP financial measures because such reconciliations are not available without unreasonable efforts. This is due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting with reasonable certainty certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation, including in particular the impact of the voluntary recalls and realized and unrealized foreign currency gains and losses reported within other expense. For the same reasons, we are unable to forecast with reasonable certainty all deductions and additions needed in order to provide a forward-looking GAAP financial measures at this time. The amount of these deductions and additions may be material and, therefore, could result in forward-looking GAAP financial measures being materially different or less than forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures. See “Forward-looking statements” below.

All statements other than statements of historical or current fact included in this press release are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include statements containing words such as “anticipate,” “assume,” “believe,” “can have,” “contemplate,” “continue,” “could,” “design,” “due,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “goal,” “intend,” “likely,” “may,” “might,” “objective,” “plan,” “predict,” “project,” “potential,” “seek,” “should,” “target,” “will,” “would,” and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of the timing or nature of future operational performance or other events. For example, all statements made relating to our future expectations relating to our share repurchase program, demand and market conditions, pricing conditions, expected sales, gross margin, operating expense and cash flow levels, and our expectations for opportunity, growth, investments, and new products, including those set forth in the quotes from YETI’s President and CEO, and the 2024 financial outlook provided herein, constitute forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those that are expected and, therefore, you should not unduly rely on such statements. The risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements include but are not limited to: (i) economic conditions or consumer confidence in future economic conditions; (ii) our ability to maintain and strengthen our brand and generate and maintain ongoing demand for our products; (iii) our ability to successfully design, develop and market new products; (iv) our ability to effectively manage our growth; (v) our ability to expand into additional consumer markets, and our success in doing so; (vi) the success of our international expansion plans; (vii) our ability to compete effectively in the outdoor and recreation market and protect our brand; (viii) the level of customer spending for our products, which is sensitive to general economic conditions and other factors; (ix) problems with, or loss of, our third-party contract manufacturers and suppliers, or an inability to obtain raw materials; (x) fluctuations in the cost and availability of raw materials, equipment, labor, and transportation and subsequent manufacturing delays or increased costs; (xi) our ability to accurately forecast demand for our products and our results of operations; (xii) our relationships with our national, regional, and independent retail partners, who account for a significant portion of our sales; (xiii) the impact of natural disasters and failures of our information technology on our operations and the operations of our manufacturing partners; (xiv) our ability to attract and retain skilled personnel and senior management, and to maintain the continued efforts of our management and key employees; (xv) the impact of our indebtedness on our ability to invest in the ongoing needs of our business, and (xvi) our ability to successfully execute our share repurchase program and its impact on stockholder value and the volatility of the price of our common stock.

These forward-looking statements are made based upon detailed assumptions and reflect management’s current expectations and beliefs. While YETI believes that these assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements are reasonable, YETI cautions that it is very difficult to predict the impact of known factors, and it is impossible for YETI to anticipate all factors that could affect actual results.

The forward-looking statements included here are made only as of the date hereof. YETI undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by law.
