American Outdoor Brands, Inc. Reports First Quarter Fiscal 2025 Financial Results

• Net Sales $41.6 Million
• GAAP Gross Margin 45.4%
• Traditional Channel Sales $25.1 Million
• E-Commerce Channel Sales $16.5 Million
• International Net Sales $4.4 Million - Up 21%

COLUMBIA, Mo., Sept. 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- American Outdoor Brands, Inc. (NASDAQ Global Select: AOUT), an innovation company that provides product solutions for outdoor enthusiasts, today announced financial results for the first quarter of fiscal 2025 ended July 31, 2024.

First Quarter Fiscal 2025 Financial Highlights

  • Quarterly net sales were $41.6 million, a decrease of $1.8 million, or 4.1%, compared with net sales of $43.4 million for the prior year.
  • Quarterly gross margin was 45.4%, consistent with quarterly gross margin of 45.4% for the comparable quarter last year. Non-GAAP gross margin for the quarter was 46.0%. For a detailed reconciliation, see the schedules that follow in this release.
  • Quarterly GAAP net loss was $2.4 million, or ($0.18) per diluted share, compared with a GAAP net loss of $4.1 million, or ($0.31) per diluted share, last year.
  • Quarterly non-GAAP net income was $748,000 or $0.06 per diluted share, compared with non-GAAP net income of $98,000, or $0.01 per diluted share, last year. GAAP to non-GAAP adjustments for net income exclude acquired intangible amortization, stock compensation, non-recurring inventory reserve costs, technology implementation, and other costs. For a detailed reconciliation, see the schedules that follow in this release.
  • Quarterly Adjusted EBITDAS was $2.0 million, or 4.8% of net sales, compared with Adjusted EBITDAS of $1.1 million, or 2.6% of net sales, for the prior year. For a detailed reconciliation, see the schedules that follow in this release.

Brian Murphy, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "Net sales results for our first quarter came in as expected, declining slightly year-over-year, driven by a combination of order timing and recent trends in certain consumer markets. Nevertheless, I am pleased with our performance, which included a significant increase of more than 76% in Adjusted EBITDAS, and reflected a consumer preference for innovative products from our popular brands in Outdoor Lifestyle and Shooting Sports categories. New product innovation and expanded distribution opportunities are core to our long-term growth strategy, and both played a key role in our first quarter results.

"Innovation allows us to forge strong relationships with our consumers and retailers and expand our access to new markets. New products launched within the past 24 months generated 23% of our net sales in the first quarter. In Outdoor Lifestyle, new products from our BOG and BUBBA brands, including our Smart Fish Scale, delivered strong hunting and fishing performance and helped to largely offset softness in outdoor cooking and rugged outdoor. In Shooting Sports, new products from our Caldwell Claymore family, including our Solo and PullPup clay target throwers, drove strength in shooting accessories and helped partially offset weakness in personal protection products, which is reflective of recent trends in that market. We believe our consumer is resilient, and with innovation as our growth engine, we are excited about the new products we have in store and the future growth they can fuel.

"Expanded distribution opportunities are also a key part of our growth strategy and during the quarter we remained focused on ensuring our brands are increasingly accessible to a broad audience of consumers, both domestically and internationally. Accordingly, our efforts to introduce more of our brands to Canadian consumers helped deliver international net sales of $4.4 million, comprising over 10% of our net sales in the quarter and representing growth of over 21%. These results demonstrate the tremendous potential the international market holds for our brands," concluded Murphy.

Andrew Fulmer, Chief Financial Officer, said, "Our balance sheet remained strong in the first quarter, and we continued to demonstrate disciplined capital management. We ended the quarter with $23.5 million in cash and no debt after replenishing our inventories in preparation for the fall hunting and holiday seasons, and after repurchasing our common stock during the quarter. We remain excited about the opportunities that lie ahead for fiscal 2025 and beyond. While we anticipate that headwinds in the Shooting Sports category may continue, we believe that our initiatives to drive channel expansion, combined with our robust new product pipeline, will help deliver growth in our Outdoor Lifestyle category. Therefore, we continue to believe that we remain well positioned to deliver growth in both net sales and profitability in fiscal 2025."

Conference Call and Webcast
The Company will host a conference call and webcast today, September 5, 2024, to discuss its first quarter fiscal 2025 financial and operational results. Speakers on the conference call will include Brian Murphy, President and Chief Executive Officer, and Andrew Fulmer, Chief Financial Officer. The conference call may include forward-looking statements and a discussion of non-GAAP financial measures. The conference call and webcast will begin at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time (2:00 p.m. Pacific Time). Those interested in listening to the conference call via telephone may call directly at (833) 630-1956 and ask to join the American Outdoor Brands call. No RSVP is necessary.

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