Item 2.02.                      Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On July 30, 2020, Brunswick Corporation (“Brunswick”) announced its financial results for the second quarter 2020. The news release Brunswick issued announcing its second quarter 2020 earnings is incorporated herein by reference and is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

In the news release, Brunswick uses non-GAAP financial measures. A “non-GAAP financial measure” is a numerical measure of a registrant’s historical or future financial performance, financial position, or cash flows that excludes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding amounts, that are included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the statements of operations, balance sheets, or statements of cash flows of the issuer; or includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of including amounts, that are excluded from the most directly comparable measure so calculated and presented. Operating and statistical measures and certain ratios and other statistical measures are not non-GAAP financial measures. GAAP refers to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.

Brunswick has used certain of the financial measures that are included in the news release for several years, both in presenting its results to shareholders and the investment community and in its internal evaluation and management of its businesses. Brunswick’s management believes that these measures (including those that are non-GAAP financial measures) and the information they provide are useful to investors because they permit investors to view Brunswick’s performance using the same tools that Brunswick uses and to better evaluate Brunswick’s ongoing business performance.

The measure diluted earnings per common share (EPS), as adjusted, is believed to be useful to investors because it represents a measure of Brunswick’s earnings, without the impact of certain charges that do not reflect the Company's ongoing business performance. Brunswick defines this measure as diluted earnings (loss) per common share from continuing operations, excluding the earnings per share impact of restructuring, exit, and impairment charges; impairment charges or gain on sale of an equity investment; loss on early extinguishment of debt; special tax items; acquisition-related costs; purchase accounting amortization; or other applicable charges. Brunswick’s management also believes that the measures adjusted operating earnings and adjusted pretax earnings are useful to investors because they provide a necessary and important perspective on Brunswick's operating performance and improve comparability of performance against prior periods. Brunswick defines adjusted operating earnings as operating earnings (loss), excluding the earnings impact of restructuring, exit, and impairment charges; purchase accounting amortization; acquisition-related costs; and other non-recurring or applicable charges. Brunswick defines adjusted pretax earnings as earnings (loss) before income taxes, excluding the earnings impact of restructuring, exit, and impairment charges; acquisition-related costs; purchase accounting amortization; impairment charges or gain on sale of an equity investment; loss on early extinguishment of debt; and other applicable charges. Brunswick’s management believes that the non-GAAP financial measure free cash flow is useful to investors because it is an indication of cash flow that may be available to fund investments in future growth initiatives. Brunswick defines free cash flow as cash flow from operating and investing activities (excluding cash provided by or used for acquisitions, investments, purchases or sales/maturities of marketable securities, and other investing activities) and the effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents. Brunswick does not provide forward-looking guidance for certain financial measures on a GAAP basis because it is unable to predict certain items contained in the GAAP measures without unreasonable efforts. These items may include restructuring, exit, and impairment charges, special tax items, acquisition-related costs, and certain other unusual adjustments.

To reflect the impact of changes in currency exchange rates on net sales, Brunswick may use constant currency reporting. To present this information, net sales transacted in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated to U.S. dollars using prior year exchange rates for the comparative period, using the average exchange rates in effect during that period. The percentage change in net sales expressed on a constant currency basis may better reflect changes in the underlying business trends, excluding the impact of translation arising from foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations.

The information in this report and the exhibit attached hereto shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

"Our second quarter performance again demonstrated the power of our marine-focused portfolio despite the unprecedented disruption to the global economy resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic," said Brunswick Chief Executive Officer David Foulkes. "Our operations and supply-chain teams did a wonderful job of quickly and safely restarting


and ramping-up our global production facilities, while rigorously applying our COVID-19 health and safety protocols. We continue to enhance these protocols to keep our 13,000 global employees safe, and I want to thank them for all their hard work, sacrifice, and vigilance during this challenging time.

All our businesses outperformed our expectations in the quarter. Our resilient, aftermarket-driven parts and accessories business supported consumers as stay-at-home restrictions were lifted and boaters returned to the water in force. Demand in the U.S. retail marine market accelerated into May and June resulting in robust new boat and engine sales, with sales to first-time purchasers or returning lapsed boaters representing approximately half of new boat sales. This surge in demand, together with the suspension of production at most of our manufacturing facilities from late-March into mid-April due to the pandemic, resulted in our lowest mid-season pipeline inventory levels in almost twenty years, with 34% fewer boats in dealer inventory versus the second quarter of 2019.

This strengthening demand, combined with market share gains, resulted in stronger top-line, earnings, and cash flow performance than anticipated. As evidenced by Mercury's announced partnership with BRP as its global outboard engine supplier of choice, our Mercury lineup of industry-leading products is driving continued share gains in areas where we have concentrated our investment. Our boat business remained profitable in the quarter despite significantly lower volume in April due to the shutdowns, and our businesses de-levered consistent with the assumptions provided on the first quarter earnings call. Finally, Freedom Boat Club continues to exceed our expectations, as evidenced by its growth to 33,000 memberships company-wide, with over 4,600 new memberships added in the second quarter alone. The Freedom fleet now exceeds 3,000 boats, with strong sales of Brunswick products into the franchise network.

Uncertainty in the global economy remains as a result of the unpredictable trajectory of the pandemic, and we will continue to focus on controlling costs through structural cost reduction actions, while remaining flexible with our capital strategy to enable investments in new products and technology. Absent significant additional disruption to demand or to our operations, we believe that these investments, together with the continued successful


execution of our strategic plan, allow our 2022 financial targets, shared at our Investor Day in February, to remain in reach," Foulkes concluded.

Reportable Segment Changes

As a reminder, effective January 1, 2020, we changed our management reporting and updated our reportable segments to Propulsion, Parts and Accessories, and Boats to align with our strategy. Therefore, for all periods presented in this release, all figures and outlook statements incorporate this change unless otherwise noted. Please see the Current Report on Form 8-K dated January 30, 2020 for more information.

2020 Second Quarter Results

For the second quarter of 2020, Brunswick reported consolidated net sales of $987.8 million, down from $1,163.5 million in 2019. Diluted EPS for the quarter was $0.89 on a GAAP basis and $0.99 on an as adjusted basis. Comparative second quarter earnings results, including reconciliations of GAAP to as adjusted amounts, are shown below:

Operating Earnings Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per Share
$ millions (except per share data) Q2 2020 Q2 2019 Q2 2020 Q2 2019

bps = basis points

Review of Cash Flow and Balance Sheet

Cash and marketable securities totaled $553.9 million at the end of the second quarter, up $221.2 million from year-end 2019 levels. This change includes net cash provided by operating activities during the first six months of the year of $215.7 million, which increased by $68.3 million versus the prior year, primarily as a result of more favorable changes in working capital, driven mainly by decreases in inventory levels, partially offset by lower net earnings.

Investing and financing activities resulted in net cash provided of $7.0 million during the first-half of 2020, including $185.0 million of precautionary revolving credit facility net borrowings, and also included $90.7 million of capital expenditures, $38.2 million of dividend payments, and $34.1 million of share repurchases through early March.

Propulsion Segment - Financial Highlights

$ millions Q2 2020 Q2 2019 (Decr)
Net Sales $395.4 $461.5 (14.3 )%
Operating Earnings $47.7 $71.0 (32.8 )%

The Propulsion segment, which manufactures and distributes marine engines and related controls, rigging, and propellers, reported a sales decrease in the quarter as continued strong demand for higher horsepower outboard engine categories and related controls and systems was offset by the impact of production suspensions at Mercury and its OEM customers due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Operating earnings also decreased as benefits from cost reduction activities were more than offset by lower sales and the unfavorable absorption resulting from COVID-19 production disruptions, as well as the unfavorable impact of changes in foreign exchange rates and tariffs.


Parts and Accessories Segment - Financial Highlights

$ millions Q2 2020 Q2 2019 (Decr)
Net Sales $386.5 $410.0 (5.7 )%
Operating Earnings GAAP $80.1 $88.2 (9.2 )%
Restructuring, exit, and impairment charges 0.6 NM
Purchase accounting amortization 7.2 7.2 %
Operating Earnings, as adjusted $87.3 $96.0 (9.1 )%
NM = not meaningful

The Parts and Accessories segment, which contains engine parts and consumables, electrical products, boat parts and systems, and the distribution business, reported lower sales in the quarter as strong growth in the distribution business was offset by lower sales in other businesses. Both revenue and earnings were negatively affected by stay-at-home restrictions, which disrupted dealer, retail, and OEM operations in many locations in the first-half of the quarter, and offset the impact of cost reduction actions.

Boat Segment - Financial Highlights

$ millions Q2 2020 Q2 2019 Incr (Decr)
Net Sales $249.9 $366.6 (31.8 )%
Operating Earnings GAAP $2.0 $25.8 (92.2 )%
Restructuring, exit, and impairment charges 0.3 2.6 (88.5 )%
Acquisition related costs 0.6 1.3 (53.8 )%
Purchase accounting amortization 0.4 0.1 NM
Sport Yacht & Yachts 2.9 NM
Operating Earnings, as adjusted $3.3 $32.7 (89.9 )%
NM = not meaningful

The Boat segment, which manufactures and distributes recreational boats, and includes Business Acceleration operations, reported lower sales and earnings against prior year due to the temporary suspension of manufacturing in most plants in April and ramp-up activities into May. Freedom Boat Club, which is part of Business Acceleration, contributed approximately 2 percent of sales in the quarter, despite many locations being impacted by local business closure orders early in the quarter.


2020 Outlook

"While we remain very cognizant of potential future macroeconomic headwinds and other uncertainties, our resilient second quarter performance, together with a surging marine retail environment, has created substantial growth opportunities for the remainder of 2020 and 2021," said Foulkes. "Given recent sustained demand, elevated production levels over time will be required to rebuild pipelines, and together with substantial upcoming new product offerings, should drive wholesale growth through 2021 and potentially beyond. Our focus on structural cost containment, along with our strong financial profile and healthy balance sheet and liquidity, enable us to invest in our businesses, consistent with our standing objective of driving shareholder value, while ensuring that we continue to prioritize and devote our best efforts to protecting the health and welfare of our employees in the COVID-19 environment.

Although we are through a majority of the retail selling season, projecting the demand environment and operating results for the remainder of 2020 still involves a high degree of uncertainty. The progression of the pandemic remains fluid, and the resulting impact on our dealers, OEM partners, suppliers, and the macro-economy remains unclear. These factors will ultimately influence the performance of the marine market and the health of the global consumer. In response, our businesses continue to prepare for a range of scenarios, and our plan for the remainder of the year is based on the following assumptions:

1. We anticipate that U.S. marine industry retail unit demand will be up low-single digit percent for the year, with stronger demand in the U.S. than in international regions. We assume that wholesale comparisons will be significantly better than retail in the back-half of the year due mostly to the pipeline reduction actions executed in the second-half of 2019, and the current low pipeline inventory levels due to the strong retail demand and production suspensions in the second quarter.
2. We expect operating expenses of between $560 and $575 million for the year, which represents an approximate 10 percent decrease from our initial 2020 plan. While slightly higher than our estimate after the first quarter, this increase represents costs necessary to drive growth in the improved market, while
--- ---

continuing to invest in the critical product and technology programs that we believe will generate future market share gains and earnings growth.

3. We are not making any major changes to our capital strategy for the year. However, we do plan to repay an additional $60 million of long-term debt in the second-half of the year, bringing our full-year debt reduction to $100 million. In addition, yesterday we repaid $100 million of borrowings under our revolving credit facility, and plan to repay the remaining $85 million during the third quarter.

It cannot be overstated that the level of recovery of the global economy, normalized channel operations, and the absence of significant additional disruption to our global operations will be the most important factors in determining whether we ultimately perform in line with our current assumptions. Subject to this uncertainty, and although our formal guidance for 2020 remains withdrawn, we would anticipate our second-half 2020 performance to result in:

A. Second-half 2020 revenue and operating earnings exceeding second-half 2019, as our parts & accessories business should remain steady and our propulsion and boat businesses will ramp-up production to meet demand and refill pipelines.
B. Second-half 2020 operating leverage to fall between high-teens and low-twenties percent.
--- ---
C. Full-year free cash flow generation in excess of $325 million, which was our original pre-COVID-19 target for 2020.
--- ---

Finally, I remain confident in our 2020-2022 strategic plan. The growth trajectory in longer-term plans is rarely linear, and we expect this plan to be no different. However, given our strong financial position, investment in new product and technology development leading to market share gains, current low pipeline levels, continued growth at Freedom Boat Club, and our focus on operational efficiency and cost containment, we believe that our 2022 financial objectives as shared in Miami in February remain in reach," Foulkes concluded.


Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures used in this release is provided in the reconciliation sections of the consolidated financial statements accompanying this release.

In order to better align Brunswick's reported results with the internal metrics used by Brunswick's management to evaluate business performance as well as to provide better comparisons to prior periods and peer data, non-GAAP measures used in this release exclude the impact of purchase accounting amortization related to the Power Products and Freedom Boat Club acquisitions.

Brunswick does not provide forward-looking guidance for certain financial measures on a GAAP basis because it is unable to predict certain items contained in the GAAP measures without unreasonable efforts. These items may include restructuring, exit, and impairment costs, special tax items, acquisition-related costs, and certain other unusual adjustments.
