I would now like to turn the call over to Matt.

Thanks, Arvind, and good morning. YETI's third quarter performance highlights growing momentum from consistent and strong execution against our long-standing strategic priorities, driving product innovation, broadening our brand and addressable market and expanding our global presence. These initiatives are yielding meaningful results and building towards what we believe is a long-term top line growth range of high single to low double digits. Our product innovation pipeline has never been more robust, extending and deepening our portfolio. Our brand is connecting with both legacy and new customers domestically and abroad. Our international growth is accelerating with exceptional performance in the U.K. and Europe, robust consumer demand in Australia and Canada, and a great early read in Asia with more opportunities to come. Strong consumer demand for our products across channels and geographies, combined with recent innovation, continues to reinforce the durability and growing relevance of the YETI brand. This demand translated into top line growth, fueled by robust double-digit gains in our Coolers & Equipment category in our international markets. These results were achieved despite softer U.S. e-commerce performance and significant caution in wholesale sell-in, which created a notable gap compared to very strong double-digit sell-through across both Drinkware and Coolers as reported in that channel. The quarter underscores the strength of our diversified go-to-market strategy, our ability to meet consumers where they shop and the accelerating impact of our international expansion. Turning to growth and starting with product innovation. Our products continue to set the standard for durability, design, and performance. Our two core categories, Drinkware and Coolers & Equipment, anchor a dynamic portfolio built on 13 scalable product platforms, fueling innovation and long-term growth. These platforms are featured in our updated quarterly highlights presentation available on our Investor Relations website. Across these platforms, we are on track to launch more than 30 new products in 2025, even as we navigate strategic trade-offs to advance supply chain diversification. Importantly, we have a robust pipeline that is aligned with the continued momentum of our brand and positions us for sustained expansion. As we stoke the brand globally, we create natural opportunities for product innovation, expansion, and vitality. Within Drinkware, the strength of our core portfolio and our uptempo focus on innovation is driving accelerated momentum despite ongoing wholesale inventory pressure and promotional intensity in the U.S. market. Even as overall sell-in was down year-over-year in U.S. wholesale, sell-through strength highlights the underlying momentum of YETI, in particular, the durability of our Drinkware business in that highly contested market. It reinforces our global strategy of building a sound foundation through diversification to set up for growth in Drinkware in Q4 and beyond. Our innovation this year has spanned across several Drinkware platforms, showcasing the diversity and range of our portfolio. Recent launches include our insulated food jars, travel bottles, updated Rambler Jug, ceramic lined Drinkware, and a cast iron expansion with our 6-quart Ranch Pan. Within the last two weeks, we launched our Silo Jug built for everything from sports to job sites and outdoor adventures. This is a great product that works not only for athletes but for anyone looking for large capacity, easy-to-access hydration with YETI's cold holding power. We believe this launch continues to position YETI as a go-to brand across a wide range of use environments and naturally fits with our expanding focus on sports. Looking at the remainder of the year and into 2026, we're energized by feedback we've received from our partners about the innovation ahead in Drinkware, including the upcoming release of our YETI Shaker Bottle, featuring a patented design that improves upon the standard shaker, providing an incredible mixing experience while removing the traditional wire ball. This speed to launch is enabled by the acquisition of the design, tooling, and IP we communicated in our second quarter call. With the shaker bottle, which will be manufactured in the United States, we are targeting a roughly $2.5 billion market fueled by the rapidly growing demand for hydration powders, protein supplements, and wellness products, aligning with YETI's expansion into sport, health, and wellness. Early feedback from wholesale sports and health partners has been very positive. The acquired design and IP comes from Helimix, which will cease operations as we relaunch an updated design to build upon the market awareness and momentum from Helimix's over 39,000 4.5-star reviews on Amazon. This quick turn launch represents a compelling opportunity to drive organic growth going into 2026 and deliver a margin-accretive product line with a strong ROI. Importantly, this further deepens our connection with consumers in new and existing markets. The breadth of innovation across our Drinkware portfolio is demonstrating clear traction and is setting us up for continued success and long-term category leadership. In Coolers & Equipment, our double-digit growth for the quarter underscores the broad demand we're seeing across the portfolio. On the innovation front, our Daytrip soft coolers saw significant demand. Additionally, we have several highly anticipated Daytrip line expansions planned in the coming months to address an even wider market opportunity. In bags and packs, we continue to see strength across new and legacy products with notable performance in backpacks, totes, and duffles. Following strong demand for Camino totes, which sold out across channels a number of times, we've worked to replenish inventory through limited re-releases and are partnering with our retailers to capture some of the anticipated holiday demand and sustained momentum of this iconic product. In hard coolers, our Roadie and Tundra families continue to extend reach even as we lapped the significant debut of the Roadie 15 and Roadie 32 in the prior year. The recent additions of customization capabilities on a range of our coolers unlock significant opportunities, particularly among our existing partnerships and sports relationships. Last month, we launched an expansion of our storage and protective case platform with the GoBox 1, which comes at a giftable price point right in time for the holiday shopping season. Expect to see much broader expansion here in 2026. I'm also very excited about the build-out of our global innovation capabilities. Our Thailand innovation center focused on hard goods is now fully operational and already driving impact, giving us the capability to significantly increase our speed and capacity for product development. In addition, I'm pleased to announce a new development and innovation office in Vietnam to open in early 2026, dedicated to the design and development of bags and soft cooler bags. This will complement our existing product talent and capabilities in Austin, Denver, Bozeman, and Thailand. Together, these innovation centers will enable a 24/7 global cycle across both current and future products and will provide us with the ability to respond with even greater agility to market opportunities, fueling long-term growth and competitive advantage. It's clear that our product expansion and innovation are working. And as we look forward with our pipeline stronger than ever and significant white space ahead, we are very well positioned to execute. Our second strategic growth priority focuses on broadening our brand and our global customer base through brand awareness, community engagement, and a unique omnichannel strategy that enables us to reach consumers where and how they shop. We are amplifying our brand marketing as we approach YETI's 20th anniversary. Starting later this month, we will release our largest ever U.S. brand campaign around major sporting events in the run-up to peak holiday shopping. Partnering with the incredible talent at Wieden + Kennedy, we are on the front end of shaping the next decade of our brand. This brand campaign will span linear, connected, and digital media. Additionally, to amplify our reach, particularly on social platforms like TikTok, we've added a new media partner to drive this effort. These initiatives mark a significant step towards elevating YETI's always-on brand presence and impact, connecting to our powerful foundational audience while broadening our reach. In terms of engagement at a local level, in Q3, YETI activated at over 80 events worldwide, deepening connections with consumers across diverse passions and communities. To that end, our sports presence has never been higher. Following the launch of our strategic partnership with Fanatics, we are now licensed with the NBA, rounding out Major League relationships across NFL, NHL, MLS, and MLB. We're also proud to have recently signed on as an exclusive partner, including courtside presence for League One Volleyball, a fast-growing women's professional volleyball league and parent to roughly 2,000 youth and junior teams and 24,000 players. Internationally, YETI's footprint is expanding through continued partnerships with top clubs and teams, including Tottenham Hotspur, now featuring YETI on the front of the women's team training kit, the New Zealand All Blacks, Oracle Red Bull Racing, and more to come. Our limited edition product launches and signature programs continue to power these partnerships into consumers' hands. At the collegiate level, YETI has outfitted over 50 NCAA schools and 80-plus Division 1 teams covering almost 4,000 athletes, including a strong combination of both women's and men's sports. As we continue to grow our sports relationships, we see further exciting potential to expand our channels to market from youth up to professional. These initiatives highlight YETI's accelerating momentum in sports from grassroots to the global stage supporting athletes with high-performance products and driving brand growth across new audiences and markets. As we execute our brand-building strategy, YETI is unlocking significant opportunities for global growth, leveraging strategic partnerships and a refreshed media approach to expand our reach and our influence. Shifting to our channel performance. The continued expansion of our product portfolio, combined with our diversified presence across channels, is a key part of our strategy to broaden our audience. Our wholesale channel demonstrated very strong momentum despite a continuation of more cautious ordering and tighter inventory management from our retail partners, particularly in the U.S. Sell-through trends remained strong, reflecting healthy consumer demand throughout the quarter. As we enter year-end, we are well positioned from a channel inventory perspective and feel great about our setup heading into 2026. Last month, we started a new wholesale partnership with Nordstrom, where YETI is being featured in their holiday gift activation across 91 doors and online and permanent placement in 70 Nordstrom home doors. This new retail partnership underscores our focus on adding complementary distribution channels to support our diverse product portfolio. In our direct-to-consumer channels, we continue to leverage our omnichannel approach to meet evolving shopping behaviors with speed and agility. YETI's Amazon marketplace continues to see strong performance, and our corporate sales business once again exceeded expectations, supported by expanded customization capabilities across hard coolers and select bags, as well as our growing partnerships in sports and hospitality. Notably, our collaboration with Fanatics, a leading global digital sports platform, is off to an exceptional start. This partnership significantly expands YETI's presence in the sports licensing market and is already driving strong engagement across fan communities. We're incredibly excited about the momentum we're seeing and the opportunities ahead as we build on this performance and further accelerate growth across our consumer and commercial channels. On yeti.com, traffic and average order value grew in Q3 with strong engagement around new product launches. Conversion rates remained pressured in the quarter, impacting our overall performance and reflecting a greater prevalence of deal shopping by consumers. In response, we focused on effective deployment of performance marketing spend, prioritized higher-quality traffic, and launched targeted initiatives to improve conversion efficiency. In the near term, we're optimistic about our upcoming gear garage event, which is expected to further elevate customer engagement and drive traffic and purchase intent. These efforts are laying a strong foundation for yeti.com in 2026. In retail, we remain focused on maximizing the performance of our existing stores. During the quarter, we launched localized branded apparel and accessories in 16 stores to add a unique impulse purchase moment. We also introduced immersive walk-throughs on yeti.com to showcase the YETI retail experience. With more initiatives planned for Q4, we're building upon our retail foundation to support the next phase of growth and continued impact on the rest of our channels to market. Our third key growth driver is expanding our global presence. The YETI brand continues to build as we execute our proven go-to-market strategy across our international markets. I recently spent time in the U.K. and Europe with a number of iconic global brand partners. I walked away from those meetings incredibly energized about the mutual brand respect, passion, and creativity for working together. Mike will talk further about the performance in the quarter and the setup for Q4, but suffice it to say, we're on the front of the global wave. Europe continues to show outstanding growth led by excellent performance in the U.K. and continued traction across key European markets. In addition to the recent partner meetings in the U.K. and Europe, I also joined partners across Asia earlier this year. The energy and momentum are undeniable. Combined, these markets echo the early surge we saw during YETI's rapid U.S. expansion and again in Canada and Australia. What's unfolding is not just market growth; it's a product-led brand-endorsed movement. We're confident in the trajectory ahead and energized by the opportunity it represents. In Japan, our presence continues to scale quickly with over 270 doors opened to date and 400-plus stores expected by year-end. Looking ahead, with our core leadership team in place, our priority is consistent execution of our go-to-market strategy, leveraging the strong fit between YETI's premium positioning and the Japanese consumers' appreciation for quality. We see the broader Asia region as a key long-term driver of international growth potential. This year, complementing our launch directly in Japan, we added distribution in Thailand. In addition, we have signed distributor partners and are planning launches in three Asian markets next year: Malaysia, Singapore, and the Philippines. We're also making progress against our plans and potential partnerships in Korea, China, Indonesia, Taiwan, and Hong Kong. In Canada, end consumer demand for YETI products continues to be robust, even as our wholesale partners remain cautious during the third quarter. Seasonal colorways and innovation across categories are resonating in Canada, highlighting the relevance of our diverse product offering and the impact of our localized brand strategy. In Australia, we delivered growth across all channels and core categories during the quarter, and we anticipate further acceleration in Q4. Brand enthusiasm remains strong, positioning us for sustained momentum through the end of the year and into 2026. Going into 2026 and beyond, we continue to see attractive opportunities for further global expansion across the Middle East and South America. In terms of supply chain transformation, our diversification plan is well on track with key factory partners now live across multiple geographies. These partners are consistently meeting our high standards for quality and cost. We continue to expect that by year-end, on a go-forward basis, less than 5% of our total cost of goods sold will be exposed to U.S. tariffs on goods sourced from China. Importantly, our multi-country sourcing strategy will be fully operational. As we look ahead to 2026, we're extremely well positioned with a more resilient, flexible, and diversified supply base that strengthens our ability to scale globally while mitigating geopolitical and operational risks. As we navigate a dynamic macro environment, our fortress balance sheet and very robust free cash flow generation continue to underpin strategic investments in growth and innovation. At the same time, it enables us to execute our growth-oriented capital allocation priorities in addition to creating value through share buybacks. With $173 million in share repurchases year-to-date, we are upsizing our 2025 plan from $200 million, now targeting $300 million by year-end, bringing our total repurchase to $500 million across 2024 and 2025, representing approximately 14% of our shares outstanding. Alongside our growth and disciplined capital allocation, we're making investments and focusing resources on potentially transformative technologies, including artificial intelligence, to unlock new growth opportunities, enhance consumer engagement, and drive efficiency. We're early on this journey but committed to it. Our AI strategy spans high-impact applications from automated custom image moderation, reducing the necessity for manual processes, customer support, site search, advanced marketing analytics, and back-office automation tests. We are also leveraging AI to amplify brand visibility in the evolving search landscape. Recent initiatives include AI-enabled product customization, including the launch of a Gen AI photo-to-line-art feature to elevate consumer creativity, and the launch of Ranger, a conversational shopping assistant designed to boost conversion on yeti.com. Our efforts around AI-driven content optimization helped secure YETI the number one share of voice across major AI discovery platforms over the past quarter, and we've modernized our marketing measurement with AI-powered ROAS modeling. These initiatives not only differentiate YETI, but also deepen consumer insights, enable data-driven decisions, and create the potential to strengthen long-term margins. As it relates to our full year 2025 outlook, we remain confident in our disciplined execution against a well-established strategy, and we believe we are well positioned to continue our momentum into year-end. I'm incredibly encouraged by the global feedback we're receiving, underscoring growing passion for the YETI brand, strong enthusiasm for our products, and anticipation for the innovation ahead. As mentioned last quarter, we plan to hold our Investor Day in the first half of next year. Today, we're excited to announce that we'll be hosting the event in Austin, Texas to fully showcase YETI and where we are going. We will be providing additional details on the event in the near future. Looking ahead, we're entering an incredibly exciting chapter for YETI, driven by immense passion for our brand, the amazing quality and innovation in our products, and the scalable nature of the business model. We have a strong foundation to build off as we advance the business toward the global growth potential for YETI with a clear focus on execution against our strategic priorities. I'll finish by thanking our team and partners for their commitment to building this brand the right way, setting us up for the incredible potential in front of us. With that, I’ll now turn the call over to Mike.

Thanks, Matt, and good morning, everyone. I appreciate you all joining us today. I'll start by reviewing our third quarter 2025 performance, then share our outlook for the full year. Following that, we look forward to taking your questions. As a reminder, all results presented on today's call will be on a non-GAAP basis to better focus on the operating performance of the business during the quarter. Let's begin with the top line. In the third quarter, we delivered sales growth of 2%, reaching $487.8 million, which was above our expectations. This performance was driven by double-digit growth in both our Coolers & Equipment category and in our international business. In addition, we are incredibly encouraged by the underlying momentum we are seeing across the business. Consumer demand is strong, and our recent innovation is resonating even as caution persists among consumers and wholesale partners. Looking at our product categories, Drinkware sales declined 4% to $263.8 million, which was in line with our expectations. The U.S. Drinkware market remains challenged during Q3 with similar levels of promotional activity as compared to the prior quarter. However, there was real strength within key pieces of our broad and diversified Drinkware portfolio. And outside the U.S., Drinkware continued its growth trend. As we said last quarter, we believe that our global Drinkware business will return to growth in Q4, driven by innovation, international growth, and as we lap the more challenging market dynamics that began in the fourth quarter of last year. Coolers & Equipment had a strong quarter globally with sales up 12% to $215.4 million. Bags had a fantastic quarter across the full portfolio of products, and we saw strong growth from soft coolers. Both categories benefited from recent innovation, and we believe that there is tremendous opportunity for growth in each category going forward. Diving into performance by channel. Direct-to-consumer sales grew 3% to $288.7 million. Our Amazon Marketplace continued its strong performance even in the face of a softer Prime Day event as compared to last year, underscoring consistently strong consumer demand for the YETI brand within this channel. Corporate sales continued to deliver solid growth, and we are excited about the growing number of strategic partnerships that we are developing around the world. When combined with an expanding portfolio of customization capabilities, we believe this will enable us to capture demand while at the same time, growing our brand on a global basis. As for e-commerce, while we were pleased with the performance of our international sites in the U.S., yeti.com saw a continuation of trends from Q2. Traffic and average order values grew year-over-year, but conversion continued to be a challenge, which we believe is a sign of a discerning consumer. In the wholesale channel, sales increased 1% to $199 million in the third quarter. Our international wholesale business delivered good growth, both on a sell-in and sell-through basis. In the U.S. wholesale channel, strong C&E performance was offset by a decline in the Drinkware category, stemming from a continuation of trends seen in the second quarter, elevated promotional intensity, coupled with conservative ordering from some of our wholesale partners. But we believe the underlying trends in sell-through are incredibly important. We observed double-digit sell-through growth in the U.S. for both C&E and Drinkware. This accelerated the trend we saw in the prior quarter, where sell-through growth is exceeding sell-in growth and has resulted in a reduction in our channel inventory levels versus the prior year. We believe this positions us well for the future, especially when combined with the exciting new U.S. distribution opportunities that we have announced this year, including Fanatics and Nordstrom. Moving to our international business. Sales outside the U.S. grew 14% to $100.4 million, representing approximately 21% of total sales in the third quarter. This reflects growth in every region, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and Canada, as well as very early contributions from our launch of Japan. Europe was the real growth highlight in Q3, continuing the trends that we have seen this year. We have tremendous momentum in the U.K., where we continue to benefit from growing brand awareness, strong consumer engagement, and increasing interest from wholesale partners. Also, we are pleased with the progress we are making in Japan. This is a foundational year for us in Japan, hiring the team, establishing relationships, and building the infrastructure that we need to capitalize on what we believe is a tremendous opportunity. Now moving down the P&L. Adjusted gross profit decreased 2% to $272.5 million, or 55.9% of adjusted sales, compared to 58.2% of adjusted sales in the third quarter of last year. This 230 basis point year-over-year decline was driven by a 320 basis point unfavorable impact from higher tariff costs. In addition, a lower mix of Drinkware sales in the quarter had an 80 basis point unfavorable impact on gross margin. These were partially offset by a 60 basis point benefit from continued product cost savings, a 50 basis point benefit from selective price increases executed early this year, and a 60 basis point benefit from a number of other smaller factors. Adjusted SG&A expenses in the third quarter increased 3% to $205.9 million, or 42.2% of sales compared to 41.7% in the prior year period. We continue to make strategic investments to drive future growth in key areas such as product development and technology, while at the same time, taking a disciplined approach to managing our operating expenses. On an adjusted basis, operating income decreased 16% to $66.6 million, or 13.7% of sales, and net income decreased 18% to $49.6 million, or 10.2% of sales. Adjusted net income per share decreased 14% to $0.61 versus $0.71 in the prior year period. Our EPS this quarter includes a $0.14 net impact from incremental costs associated with tariffs announced in 2025. Turning to our balance sheet. We ended the quarter with $164.5 million in cash compared to $280.5 million in the prior year quarter. During the third quarter, we repurchased 4.3 million shares of YETI's common stock on the open market for $150 million, bringing the year-to-date total to 5 million shares for $173 million. Total debt, excluding finance leases and unamortized deferred financing fees, was $74.9 million compared to $79.1 million at the end of last year's third quarter. From a total liquidity standpoint, we ended Q3 in a substantial net cash position and with our $300 million revolving credit facility fully available. Inventory decreased 12% year-over-year to $324 million, reflecting strategic management of our inventory purchases and continued supply constraints related to our supply chain transformation. Now turning to our updated fiscal 2025 outlook. We now expect full-year sales to increase between 1% and 2% versus fiscal 2024's adjusted net sales, and as compared to our prior outlook of flat to up 2%. This updated guidance continues to include an approximately 300 basis point unfavorable impact related to our supply chain diversification efforts and subsequent inventory supply disruptions, which is consistent with our previous outlook. From a product perspective, we expect C&E to be up mid-single digits and Drinkware to be down slightly for the full year fiscal 2025. As I mentioned earlier, for the fourth quarter, we continue to expect positive growth in Drinkware, reflecting the impact of recent innovation, growth outside the United States, and the lapping of market dynamics that we began to see in Q4 of 2024. From a channel standpoint, we expect DTC growth to be slightly above wholesale growth in fiscal 2025. Geographically, we are maintaining our outlook for our international business, as we continue to expect growth of between 15% and 20% in fiscal 2025. This implies an acceleration in international growth in Q4, reflecting the timing of order patterns that we mentioned last quarter and the continued strong consumer demand that we have seen throughout this year. In the U.S., we anticipate a low single-digit decline for the year, largely due to the dynamics within the Drinkware category that we have discussed. That said, we remain encouraged by the resilience of our U.S. Drinkware business, and we anticipate improving growth trends in the fourth quarter. We continue to expect gross margins for the year to be between 56.5% and 57%. As was the case last quarter, this reflects an approximately $40 million or 220 basis point net impact from tariffs. Trade policy discussions are ongoing, and the ultimate outcome regarding tariff rates remains uncertain. In our guidance, we are assuming that the latest tariff rates as announced remain through the end of the year. But given the late timing in the year and our successful efforts to transition our supply chain, the recent reduction in the tariff rate on goods imported from China will not have a material impact on our gross margins in 2025. We continue to expect operating expense growth of between 2% and 4% versus the prior year. This reflects the impact of ongoing investment in our growth initiatives, partially offset by continued cost optimization. We continue to expect operating income for the full year to be between 14% and 14.5% of adjusted sales, reflecting a net unfavorable impact of approximately 220 basis points from higher tariff costs versus the prior year. Below the operating line, we continue to expect an effective tax rate of approximately 25.5%. We now expect full-year 2025 diluted shares outstanding of approximately 81.5 million versus our previous outlook of 82 million. This reflects the impact of our increased share repurchase target through fiscal year-end to $300 million versus $200 million in our prior outlook. Reflecting the narrowing of our sales guidance and the impact of our increased share repurchase target, we now expect adjusted earnings per diluted share of between $2.38 and $2.49, including an approximately $0.40 net unfavorable impact from higher tariff costs versus the prior year. Consistent with our previous outlook, our capital expenditures for the year are projected to be approximately $50 million. Our capital spending remains focused on advancing our technology, launching innovative products, and strengthening our supply chain. We now expect free cash flow of approximately $200 million in 2025, compared to the prior outlook of $150 million to $200 million. As it relates to year-end inventory, we continue to expect a decline year-over-year. We are proud of the results we delivered and the growing momentum we created in the third quarter, especially against the backdrop of a persistently dynamic macroeconomic environment and heightened overall consumer caution. This performance reflects our unwavering commitment to executing on our strategic growth priorities. At the same time, we continue to focus on fortifying our supply chain, exercising cost discipline and capital management, and driving operational excellence. These efforts are designed to support sustainable long-term global growth and deliver value to our shareholders. Now I will turn the call over to the operator to take your questions.

Our first question comes from Randy Konik, Jefferies.

Matt, you started the call this morning by mentioning that you foresee this business having long-term growth potential in the high single digits to low double digits. While I’m not particularly looking for the timing of that, could you elaborate on the key components you believe are necessary to get back to that growth trajectory over time? How do you envision integrating all those elements, particularly regarding product development and geographic expansion? A bit more context on your approach would be appreciated.

Thanks, Randy. I appreciate the question. And I think as people have followed along with the story since our IPO, everything in this business is built on product and making great products. I look at where we were a year ago, growing 9%. I look at where we've been since the IPO, low double-digit growth CAGR. I look at the setup that we have across innovation, both the strength of our existing portfolio. I think you started to hear that on the call today, the things that we saw in the third quarter, the buildup for the rest of the year in the U.S., in particular, the expansion opportunity, the drive we've seen in C&E, which is really driven by both legacy products and new expansions and the things that we're seeing that are really exciting in the bags. The second big one is the brand reach. And I think as this brand continues to grow globally, we reach new audiences. We have new interactions with consumers. We create more opportunities to bring YETI products into different parts of their life. And the third one is, as I said on the call, I think we're from a global perspective, we're on the front end of the wave. And so when you step back and think about what the growth algorithm going forward for YETI is, it's going to be built on innovation, both the performance of the products we have today and the expansion. It's going to be built on the continued brand relevance and deep connection and the reach that we have with the brand. And the third one is the global opportunity we have in front of us. And I think that's what we started to see in Q3. I think we've indicated the things that we'll see in Q4, and it's what we're excited about as we go into 2026 and beyond.

That's great. And then I guess my follow-up, on the wholesale side, can you just kind of elaborate a little bit more? It sounds like the sell-through is very strong, sell-in is more subdued, and I'm talking about the United States market in the wholesale. Should we expect that the sell-in start to improve as inventories get worked down, improve into 2026? And then on the direct-to-consumer side, you talked about, I believe, conversion down, but traffic and average order value, I believe, up. As you launch more things like the Silo Jug, my 8-year-old thanks you because I bought it for him, he loves it. As you kind of keep pushing out more and more newness and the consumer gets more and more attention to it, do you think that these traffic levels and AOV continue to rise and conversion starts to improve as we head into 2026 on the DTC side? Just want to get your perspective there.

Yes. Great question, Randy. Thanks to your 8-year-old. It is an incredible product that we're really excited about. And I think it exemplifies the strategy we have in Drinkware. And I think it's why we've had the results and why we continue to be bullish on what's happening in Drinkware, particularly in the U.S. And we're building on that incredible foundation we have and really think that the forward look and the opportunity in that category is great. I think when you talk about the U.S. wholesale, the sell-in, sell-through dynamic, I think we always start with looking at sell-through, where is the consumer demand. And that importance of wholesale to us, that importance of that moment to sell to and interact with consumers and see their demand for YETI is outstanding, and we're really excited about what we see there. The sell-in dynamic is sensitive to what's happening from an inventory position. I think it's disproportionately a Drinkware story. And we've said this for the last number of quarters. We expected the Drinkware category to settle out. We work very closely with our wholesale partners on what their inventory is. And we've seen, we believe, categorical destocking happening around Drinkware. The great news is we're seeing the strength on the consumer demand. We're seeing the strength from the innovation. We're seeing the strength of the opportunity going forward as we talk about the portfolio that we have coming in Drinkware in particular. As it relates to DTC, we always want to look for strength and that traffic and AOV are both really positive signs, I think, in our dot-com. The conversion rate is really something that we're focused on, how do we drive more efficiency, more productivity, and higher conversion of the people that are showing up on our dot-com site. But I think what the results show is it exemplifies the power of our omnichannel strategy. And we talk a lot about we want to be where consumers are shopping. We're thrilled with the performance we've seen on the Amazon marketplace. We love to see our wholesale partners showing really strong sell-through growth and consumer demand. And we continue to invest behind making yeti.com a flagship place for discovery consideration and ultimately purchase, which should continue to improve the conversion.

Our next question today comes from Brooke Roach, Goldman Sachs.

Mike, I was hoping you could help us understand the scaling opportunity of some of the new sport-focused launches that you are putting into the marketplace in the back half of this year, whether that is the co-branded Drinkware with Fanatics or also the Sport Jug and some of the Blender bottles that you're putting into the marketplace. What kind of contribution do you expect from that as you scale over the course of the next year? And will that be the driver of the return to growth? What's the forecast for your core business of legacy products?

Thanks, Brooke. I'll take the front end of that, and Mike can step down on the forecast topic. What I would say largely is we feel really good as we look at our Drinkware portfolio and the innovation our team has been driving and the diversification. We've had these conversations over a number of quarters as that category had a lot of attention around it. And we said our strategy has been to diversify, be relevant, build a strong foundation and base, and then grow off of it. I think that when we look across the portfolio we have today, it isn't about leaving behind the things we've done. We're really excited about the innovation we have coming in bottles and jugs. We're really excited about the tumblers and cups. We just had a release yesterday of a large-format straw, and you can see what the social response to that was in leakproof large handled tumbler. And so we're really excited about that travel mug. But when we look to sport and where we're going, we believe we can play from the sideline to the home, to the outdoors, to the job site. And I think the jug is an incredible versatile, very YETI product in that way. I think where the sports partnerships come into play is that connection of fandom and connecting brands, the channels to market that Fanatics offers, the licensing partnerships that go through existing wholesale partners that we have and provide a direct-to-consumer opportunity, I think, are really exciting. You'll see us continue to innovate in that category because we believe that sports, on top of our outdoor legacy, on top of our historical fishing legacy, is an incredible way of expanding our audience through innovation and through connection to consumers. And so we're really excited about where this is going.

Brooke, it's Mike. So in terms of the forecast, I mean, I'd say it's all part of what we talked about as why we believe Drinkware will return to growth in Q4. I mean we said it was driven by innovation. This is obviously a piece of that. The Sports Jug we talked about, Silo, we talked about, the Shaker Bottle launching this quarter. It will be late in the quarter, not a huge amount, but it's all just part of that overall innovation story. And then the second thing we talked about is why we believe that Drinkware can return to growth in Q4 is just the international growth story and the opportunities that we see to continue to grow Drinkware as we expand internationally. So it's all part of the overall story.

Our next question today comes from Peter Benedict, Baird.

I guess I'll ask about the promotional environment. As you think about the double-digit sell-through U.S. wholesale for Drinkware, how much are promotions driving that? And then how do we square that with kind of the lower conversion that's happening on yeti.com? Is there just a higher promotional cadence in wholesale and not as much on your site? Just trying to understand that and understand how you think about the promotional cadence in the holiday and going forward, how much you do and how much your partners do?

Peter, thank you for your question. There are a few points I’d like to make. We've mentioned in previous quarters that we anticipated Drinkware, particularly in the U.S., would be promotional, and this has proven to be consistent across our brands. Market surveys confirm this. We have experienced a strong sell-through driven by the innovations we've introduced. For instance, our Wetlands Camo and the recent launch of the Silo Jug, along with the new travel straw we announced yesterday, highlight our efforts. Over the past quarters, we've brought various innovations to market in terms of color, material finish, and product form, which we believe are key to YETI's success in a promotional environment. Our promotional strategies remain aligned with our previous practices as we phase out old colors and styles. As our portfolio expands, we may introduce incremental promotions based on demand, but our main focus is on maintaining YETI's premium quality, fostering innovation, and being the go-to brand for new products. I’m particularly proud of what our team has achieved this year, especially given the complex supply chain transitions, and the groundwork we have laid for both innovation and our global supply chain for 2026. Regarding our website and conversion rates, we’re closely monitoring consumer shopping preferences, which are evolving. This relates to our discussions about AI and its impact on search and our approach to it. We believe in the strength of our diverse omnichannel strategy, which encompasses wholesale, direct-to-consumer, our website, and retail stores. Our goal is to position YETI for success in these markets.

Our next question today comes from Phillip Blee from William Blair.

So I just wanted to talk a little bit about the fourth quarter. The implied guide assumes a bit of a sales acceleration. Can you maybe just provide a bit more color around your confidence there? A lot of retailers are calling out consumer demand that's been increasingly choppy. But are you seeing any of that? Or have you already seen some of that improvement in sell-in or sell-through quarter-to-date? And then just a clarification question on Drinkware. The category should inflect positive in the fourth quarter, but do you see the potential for the U.S. market to return to growth? Or is it going to be more of an international story?

Phillip, thank you for your question. I believe your questions are interconnected. As we approach Q4, we have consistently mentioned our strengths in C&E, which were evident in Q3. We experienced a robust quarter for bags, a strong performance in soft coolers, and an overall solid C&E quarter both in the U.S. and internationally. In terms of Drinkware, we saw strong performance outside the U.S. in Q3, while in the U.S., the results aligned with our expectations. We have consistently stated that with the innovations we have planned and the anticipated growth outside the U.S., along with some comparisons from last year's market dynamics in Q4, we expect to see stabilization in the U.S. Drinkware market. All these factors lead us to believe we can return Drinkware to growth in Q4, continue the growth we have experienced in C&E, and improve our outcomes in the U.S. market. The figures indicate that the U.S. will definitely see an improvement from Q3 to Q4. Regarding consumer demand, as Matt noted, the sell-through level was strong in Q3, and we are optimistic as we enter Q4. On the DTC front, the inconsistency is seen across different channels. While Amazon and corporate sales have performed well, U.S. e-commerce has faced some challenges. Nevertheless, we are confident about our position going into Q4.

Our next question comes from Peter Keith, Piper Sandler. Consumer demand has been inconsistent. However, as mentioned by Matt, sell-through levels were strong in Q3, and we are optimistic as we move into Q4. On the direct-to-consumer side, the inconsistency is noted across channels. Both Amazon and corporate sales have performed well, while U.S. e-commerce has faced some challenges. Nevertheless, we are confident about our position as we approach Q4.

This is Alexia Morgan on for Peter. I was wanting to follow up on the previous question. So international in Q4 implies a pretty big step-up just to get to the 15% to 20% guidance for the year. I was wondering what gives you confidence there on that step-up? And then also what level of international growth is sustainable to support your provided long-term algo for high single to low double-digit sales growth?

Thank you for the question, Alexia. You're correct that the guidance suggests an increase from Q3 to Q4. However, I would point out a couple of things. First, the anticipated growth aligns with the levels we've experienced over the past six quarters, including last year and the first quarter of this year. So, we are returning to levels we've seen before. Second, throughout the year, we've mentioned timing differences related to international wholesale, which means growth may fluctuate a bit. We saw a return to double-digit growth in Q3, and we expect that momentum to carry into Q4. Similar to the U.S., we have strong consumer demand reported outside the U.S. When we consider all these factors together, we are confident in our ability to meet the necessary levels in Q4 to maintain our guidance for the year. Regarding long-term international prospects, we are not providing guidance beyond 2025 at this time. However, we believe there are significant opportunities in both Europe and Asia, including Japan, based on Matt's comments earlier. We remain optimistic about the substantial potential ahead of us outside the U.S.

Our next question today comes from Joe Altobello, Raymond James.

I want to quickly touch on tariffs. You have a net tariff impact this year of about $0.40 per share. I realize you're not giving any kind of guidance for next year, but just trying to get an idea of what that might look like going forward.

Thank you for the question. You're correct that we are not providing any guidance beyond 2025 during this call. There are many factors at play. Recently, the import rates from China to the U.S. have decreased, but this won't have a significant effect on 2025 given the timing. For most of this year, the rate from China has been at 30%, and by the end of this year, we will largely cease importing goods from China. We will experience the full annual impact of tariffs from other countries outside of China this year. Additionally, our diversified supply chain gives us the chance to evaluate our production locations and optimize sourcing based on tariff rates. There are certain countries we source from that currently do not incur tariffs. Moving forward, we will seek ways to reduce costs, continue collaborating with our suppliers, and examine pricing strategies. There are many moving parts, and there's work ahead of us that we will pursue diligently. While we aren't providing specific guidance beyond this year, it's something we are monitoring closely, and it remains a significant priority for us. We will continue to address it.

That's helpful. And just kind of quickly looking at this quarter, were U.S. sales up if you exclude Drinkware?

I think it's fair to say that U.S. sales were up if you exclude Drinkware.

The only thing I would add to that is if you really think about, and you'll see it in our revised investor deck, a more blown out view of our product portfolio. But really, the drag in our Drinkware business is pretty concentrated around that trend-driven last couple of years style. The overall strength in our Drinkware business is what gives us confidence in the expansionary strategy, the innovation, the growth we're driving, the relevance to consumers. So I think that's why we feel good about the forward look.

Our next question comes from Molly Baum, Morgan Stanley.

I want to follow up on your thoughts around Q4, specifically the holiday season. I know you mentioned that you had a softer Prime Day versus last year. So can you maybe give a little bit more detail on what drove this? And if there's any read-through there on what we might expect for some of these key holiday selling periods?

We noted strong performance on Amazon, even though July Prime Day was softer compared to last year. This observation wasn't unique to us. The holiday season is different because it spans a longer timeframe, which benefits us as we experienced sustained strong consumer demand on Amazon in Q3. This demand is just one aspect of our overall growth strategy for Q4. Our dot-com business and initiatives like gear garage are crucial for our Q4 performance, and we are optimistic about our plans. Given the solid performance on Amazon, we believe we're positioned for a successful holiday season. This perspective is primarily from the U.S., but we are also optimistic about our international business and its anticipated growth in Q4. It's important to note that you shouldn't draw direct comparisons between Prime Day results and the holiday season, as there are many factors to consider.

Our next question today comes from Noah Zatzkin at KeyBanc Capital Markets.

I guess just on the M&A front, I think there was kind of a thought some time ago that maybe tuck-ins would play a role in how you're thinking about the long-term algo. So how do kind of tuck-in acquisitions factor into the high single-digit to low double-digit long-term growth rate? And then just in general, kind of how are you thinking about M&A more near term?

Thanks, Noah. I appreciate the question. We have discussed our capital allocation priorities extensively, particularly regarding the strong buybacks we've completed. We mentioned on the call that our target for this year is $500 million in buybacks over the last two years, reflecting our confidence in YETI and our future. Regarding acquisitions, we are focused on targeted capital deployment around technologies, designs, and intellectual property, all aimed at innovation. If you look at our recent efforts, they don't fit the traditional mold of tuck-ins; instead, they allow us access to capabilities that accelerate our innovation pipeline. For instance, we've expanded our bags under the YETI brand, with plans for further developments in '26 and beyond. In the cast iron category, we took a unique design, made it a YETI product, and brought it to market to establish our presence in the evolving cookware and culinary space. Likewise, we enhanced a unique shaker bottle design that we plan to reintroduce in Q4. I see these opportunities as complementary to the investments we make in our people, technologies, and processes. We will continue to seek opportunities that enhance our product offerings and technology, as well as expand our open innovation and acqui-hire approach. Overall, we believe our future outlook for this business will drive growth for the YETI brand, aligning well with our market channels and brand extension strategy while addressing consumer needs and opportunities.

Our next question today comes from John Kernan, TD Cowen.

This is Krista Zuber speaking on behalf of John. Looking at the international perspective, considering the double-digit growth achieved this year and the international sales mix now at about 20%, how do you assess the margin profile of this business compared to the U.S. or the overall company average? Additionally, regarding product launches, you've mentioned the opening of the Thailand Innovation Center alongside the Austin center, and now you're adding Vietnam. You're set to surpass 30 new product launches this year. How are you planning for the run rate of launches going forward?

Thank you for the question. I'll address the first part, and then Matt will handle the innovation question. Regarding international margins, we've noted that there are some differences in channel and product mix across various regions. However, when we adjust for that, our gross margins outside the U.S. are quite comparable to those within the U.S. In terms of operating margins, it really depends on how mature each region is. For example, Canada and Australia, where we have a long-standing presence, show strong profitability, whereas in Europe and Asia, where we are still building brand awareness, we are investing, and it looks a bit different. As Europe continues to grow and mature like Australia and Canada, we expect to see it progress similarly. In Asia, we plan to continue investing as well. So that's the overall perspective I have. There are several factors at play, but from a gross margin viewpoint, at the channel level, they are quite similar.

What I would add is as we think about the cadence and pace of innovation, it's really less about 30 this year versus 35 next year versus 25 or whatever the numbers may be last year. It's really about opportunity we see, product market fit, opportunity to merchandise in our existing channels to market, opportunity to expand our channels to market, intercept the consumer at a new buying occasion. But what I think Thailand, Vietnam, Bozeman, Denver, Austin offer us is immense capabilities to respond to market opportunities we see to bring innovative products to market, to control our innovation, to partner with the best contract manufacturers around the world to bring it to the consumer and our partners in the most efficient and effective manner. And so I think everything from ideation to the innovation, to the development to ultimately the sourcing and execution, we're building capabilities to take advantage of the global opportunity that we see. And that includes the continued penetration growth, deepening of our relationships in the U.S., which is an incredibly important market to us and the expansionary opportunities that the rest of the world offers.

Our next question comes from Anna Glaessgen from B. Riley Securities.

I have a broader question regarding the long-term strategy. Why do we emphasize the projected high single-digit to low double-digit growth at this point? How do we balance the necessary investments for innovation to achieve that growth with the potential for greater operational expense leverage in the coming years?

Anna, thanks for the question. I'm going to do my best. I think I got most of that, but let me kind of take a crack at it. The timing is when you really think about we're building this brick by brick. We've always been product-focused. We've always been brand-expansionary focused. We've always talked about the international opportunity. I think what we have seen build over the last number of quarters and really kind of came together in Q3 is the kind of foundational opportunity we continue to see in the U.S., the global opportunity we're seeing outside of the U.S., the proof points of the reach the brand is getting in this next evolution and connection as we talked a lot about sport and the innovation both the investment we've made, which we think is a very scalable investment that has a high return, but the strength of our existing portfolio to continue to drive us forward and the impact of the expansionary growth. And so it was a great time for us to start that build towards this moment. Then we'll go into our 2026 guide in the Q4 call when we're back together. And then we'll go into an Investor Day. And all along, what I expect from YETI is what we have seen since we went public in 2018, which is we just continue to execute. We continue to build this brand the right way. We continue to innovate and lead the market, and we continue to find new market opportunities around the world. And I think that's as simple as the rationale is, and we think the algorithm builds into that.

Thank you. There are no further questions at this time. I will now turn the call over to CEO, Matt Reintjes. Please go ahead.

Thanks, everyone, for joining us. We look forward to connecting on our fourth-quarter call. Have a wonderful rest of the week.

Ladies and gentlemen, this concludes today's conference call. Thank you for your participation. You may now disconnect.
