Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition

 

On November 7, 2024, 2024, Clarus Corporation (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024 (the “Press Release”). A copy of the Press Release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference. Attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2 and incorporated herein by reference is a presentation regarding the Company’s financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024 (the “Presentation”).

 

The Press Release and/or the Presentation contain the non-GAAP measures: (i) adjusted gross margin and adjusted gross profit, (ii) adjusted (loss) income from continuing operations and related earnings (loss) per diluted share, (iii) earnings before interest, taxes, other income or expense, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA margin, and (iv) free cash flow (defined as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures). The Company believes that the presentation of certain non-GAAP measures, i.e.: (i) adjusted gross margin and adjusted gross profit, (ii) adjusted (loss) income from continuing operations and related earnings (loss) per diluted share, (iii) EBITDA, EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin, and (iv) free cash flow, provide useful information for the understanding of its ongoing operations and enables investors to focus on period- over -period operating performance, and thereby enhances the user's overall understanding of the Company's current financial performance relative to past performance and provides, along with the nearest GAAP measures, a baseline for modeling future earnings expectations. Non-GAAP measures are reconciled to comparable GAAP financial measures within the Press Release and/or the Presentation. We do not provide a reconciliation of the non-GAAP guidance measures adjusted EBITDA and/or adjusted EBITDA margin for the fiscal year 2024 to net income for the fiscal year 2024, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting certain types of expenses and gains, without unreasonable effort, which affect net income but not adjusted EBITDA and/or adjusted EBITDA margin. The Company cautions that non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the Company's reported GAAP results. Additionally, the Company notes that there can be no assurance that the above referenced non-GAAP financial measures are comparable to similarly titled financial measures used by other publicly traded companies.

 

The information in Item 2.02 of this Current Report on Form 8-K (including Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2) shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Act of 1934, as amended, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

Management Commentary

“While macroeconomic headwinds have continued to limit consumer demand in the near-term, our focus in the third quarter was on advancing our strategic plan to position Clarus for long-term profitable growth,” said Warren Kanders, Clarus’ Executive Chairman. “Specifically, in the Outdoor segment we continued to improve the quality and composition of our inventory to focus on the best and most profitable styles across categories. In line with our stated strategic objective, inventory was down 4% year-over-year. Our Adventure business performed in line with expectations for the first two months of the quarter, but results were ultimately affected by market softness in September in both North America and Australia/New Zealand.”

 

Mr. Kanders added, “There remains significant work outstanding to execute our multi-year growth initiatives, but we believe we are on track at Outdoor as we continue to simplify the business operationally and drive SKU rationalization, despite the challenging global market conditions. Our objective to scale the Adventure segment to a global footprint has not yet come to fruition. We have established a strategic roadmap that we are executing on and remain confident that the significant investments we have made in 2024 will enable our Adventure businesses to accelerate traction, particularly in the US and international markets, and strengthen our global OEM initiatives. All of this is supported by a debt-free balance sheet, to take the next steps in our turnaround.”

 

 

 

 

Third Quarter 2024 Financial Results

 

Sales in the third quarter were $67.1 million compared to $81.3 million in the same year-ago quarter. This decrease was primarily driven by softness across all selling channels in Outdoor, as well as the effect from the product line simplification strategy. The decrease was further driven by lower Adventure segment sales, specifically in the OEM channel and challenging wholesale markets globally, partially offset by the benefit from the TRED Outdoors acquisition.

 

Sales in the Outdoor segment were $49.3 million, compared to $61.1 million in the year-ago quarter. Sales in the Adventure segment decreased 11.9% to $17.8 million, or $17.5 million on a constant currency basis, compared to $20.2 million in the year-ago quarter.

Gross margin in the third quarter was 35.0% compared to 33.6% in the year-ago quarter. The increase in gross margin was primarily due to favorable product mix at the Outdoor segment as a result of product simplification and SKU rationalization efforts, as well as a favorable channel mix due to lower OEM sales and higher MAXTRAX revenue at the Adventure segment. This was partially offset by an increase in polyfluoroalkyl substances (“PFAS”) related inventory reserve expenses at the Outdoor segment, as well as sales return reserve and rebate expenses at the Adventure segment. Adjusted gross margin reflecting the PFAS related inventory reserve was 37.8% for the quarter.

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses in the third quarter were $27.9 million compared to $28.4 million in the same year-ago quarter. The decrease was primarily a result of lower retail expenses due to store closures and other expense reduction initiatives to manage costs at the Outdoor segment. These decreases were partially offset by investments in global marketing and e-commerce initiatives to accelerate growth at the Adventure segment and incremental SG&A from the TRED Outdoors acquisition.

 

The loss from continuing operations in the third quarter of 2024 was $3.2 million, or $(0.08) per diluted share, compared to loss from continuing operations of $2.2 million, or $(0.06) per diluted share in the year-ago quarter. Loss from continuing operations in the third quarter included $0.4 million of charges relating to legal cost and regulatory matter expenses and $1.9 million of PFAS inventory reserves.

 

Adjusted income from continuing operations in the third quarter of 2024 was $1.9 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, compared to adjusted income from continuing operations of $1.8 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, in the year-ago quarter. Adjusted income from continuing operations excludes legal cost and regulatory matters expenses, PFAS inventory reserves, restructuring charges and transaction costs, as well as non-cash items for intangible amortization and stock-based compensation.

 

 

 

 

Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations in the third quarter was $2.4 million, or an adjusted EBITDA margin of 3.6%, compared to adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations of $3.6 million, or an adjusted EBITDA margin of 4.5%, in the same year-ago quarter.

 

Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended September 30, 2024, was $8.3 million compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $0.1 million in the prior year quarter. Capital expenditures in the third quarter of 2024 were $1.1 million compared to $1.2 million in the prior year quarter. Free cash flow for the third quarter of 2024 was an outflow of $9.4 million compared to an outflow of $1.1 million in the prior year quarter.

 

Liquidity at September 30, 2024 vs. December 31, 2023

 

·Cash and cash equivalents totaled $36.4 million compared to $11.3 million.
·Total debt of $0.0 million compared to $119.8 million.

 

2024 Outlook

 

The Company now expects fiscal year 2024 sales to range between $260 million to $266 million. Due to softer global revenue and the continued investments in the Adventure segment to scale the business, the Company now expects adjusted EBITDA of approximately $7 million to $9 million, or an adjusted EBITDA margin of 3.0% at the mid-point of revenue and adjusted EBITDA. In addition, the Company now expects capital expenditures to range between $5.0 million to $6.0 million, of which $0.9 million related to Precision Sport prior to disposal, and free cash flow to range between $(6) million to $(8) million for the full year 2024, which includes approximately $7.0 of cash outflow related to the Precision Sport disposal.

 

Net Operating Loss (NOL)

 

The Company has net operating loss carryforwards (“NOLs”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes of $7.7 million which we expect to fully utilize in 2024.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures

 

The Company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). This press release contains the non-GAAP measures: (i) adjusted gross margin and adjusted gross profit, (ii) adjusted (loss) income from continuing operations and related earnings (loss) per diluted share, (iii) earnings before interest, taxes, other income or expense, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA margin, and (iv) free cash flow (defined as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures). The Company believes that the presentation of certain non-GAAP measures, i.e.: (i) adjusted gross margin and adjusted gross profit, (ii) adjusted (loss) income from continuing operations and related earnings (loss) per diluted share , (iii) EBITDA, EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin, and (iv) free cash flow, provide useful information for the understanding of its ongoing operations and enables investors to focus on period-over-period operating performance, and thereby enhances the user's overall understanding of the Company's current financial performance relative to past performance and provides, along with the nearest GAAP measures, a baseline for modeling future earnings expectations. Non-GAAP measures are reconciled to comparable GAAP financial measures within this press release. We do not provide a reconciliation of the non-GAAP guidance measures Adjusted EBITDA and/or Adjusted EBITDA Margin for the fiscal year 2024 to net income for the fiscal year 2024, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting certain types of expenses and gains, without unreasonable effort, which affect net income but not Adjusted EBITDA and/or Adjusted EBITDA Margin. The Company cautions that non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the Company's reported GAAP results. Additionally, the Company notes that there can be no assurance that the above referenced non-GAAP financial measures are comparable to similarly titled financial measures used by other publicly traded companies.

6 February 2023 PAGE 2 Forward - Looking Statements Please note that in this presentation we may use words such as “appears,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “plans,” “expects,” “int end s,” “future,” and similar expressions which constitute forward - looking statements within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward - looking statem ents are made based on our expectations and beliefs concerning future events impacting the Company and therefore involve a number of risks and uncertainties. We caution that forward - looking statements are not guarantees and that actual results could differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward - looking statements. Potential risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results of operations or financial condition of the Company to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward - looking statements in this presentation, include, but are not limited to, those risks and uncert ainties more fully described from time to time in the Company's public reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including under the section titled “Risk Factors” in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10 - K, and/or Quarterly Reports on Form 10 - Q, as well as in the Company’s Current Reports on Form 8 - K. All forward - looking statements included in this presentation are based upon information available t o the Company as of the date of this presentation and speak only as of the date hereof. We assume no obligation to update any forward - looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of t his presentation. Non - GAAP Financial Measures The Company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). This pre sen tation contains the non - GAAP measures: ( i ) adjusted gross margin and adjusted gross profit, (ii) adjusted (loss) income from continuing operations and related earnings (loss) per diluted share, (iii) ear nin gs before interest, taxes, other income or expense, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA margin , (iv) segment EBITDA and adjusted segment EBITDA, and (v) free cash flow (defined as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures). The Company believes that the presentation of certain non - GAAP measures, i.e.: ( i ) adjusted gross margin and adjusted gross profit, (ii) adjusted (loss) income from continuing operations and related earnings (loss) per diluted share , (iii) EBITDA, EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin, (iv) segment EBITDA and adjusted segment EBITDA, an d (v) free cash flow, provide useful information for the understanding of its ongoing operations and enables investors to focus on period - over - period operating per formance, and thereby enhances the user's overall understanding of the Company's current financial performance relative to past performance and provides, along with the nearest GAAP measures, a ba sel ine for modeling future earnings expectations. Non - GAAP measures are reconciled to comparable GAAP financial measures herein. We do not provide a reconciliation of the non - GAAP guidance measures, i.e.: ( i ) a djusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA m argin, and mid - point adjusted EBITDA margin (ii) adjusted corporate costs, and (iii) adjusted free cash flow for the fiscal year 2024 to the most comparab le GAAP financial measure, due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting certain types of expenses and gains, without unreasonable effort. The Company cautions that non - GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the Company's repo rted GAAP results. Additionally, the Company notes that there can be no assurance that the above referenced non - GAAP financial measures are compara ble to similarly titled financial measures used by other publicly traded companies. Market and Industry Data The market and industry data used throughout this presentation was obtained from various sources, including the Company’s own re search and estimates, surveys or studies conducted by third parties and industry or general publications and forecasts. Industry publications, surveys and forecasts generally state that they have o bta ined information from sources believed to be reliable, but there can be no assurance as to the accuracy and completeness of such information. While the Company believes that each of these surveys, studies, publ ica tions and forecasts is reliable, it has not independently verified such data and the Company is not making any representation as to the accuracy of such information. Similarly, the Company believes its internal re search and estimates are reliable but it has not been verified by any independent sources. In addition, while the Company believes that the industry and market information included herein is generally reliab le, such information is inherently imprecise. While the Company is not aware of any misstatements regarding the industry and market data presented herein, its estimates involve risks and uncertainties and are sub ject to change based on various factors, including those discussed under the heading “Forward - Looking Statements” above.
