Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On October 24, 2024, Brunswick Corporation (“Brunswick”) announced its financial results for the third quarter 2024. The news release Brunswick issued announcing its third quarter 2024 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. GAAP refers to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. 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.

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 the measures presented (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; purchase accounting amortization; IT security incident costs; acquisition, integration, and IT-related costs; special tax items; release of dissolved entity foreign currency translation; TN-BC Holdings LLC joint venture impairment; and other applicable charges. Brunswick’s management also believes that the measure adjusted operating earnings is useful to investors because it provides a necessary and important perspective on Brunswick's operating performance and improves 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; IT security incident costs; acquisition, integration, and IT-related costs; 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 of continuing operations (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 businesses delivered solid results as our continued market share gains, wealth of new products, and expanded contribution from recurring revenue businesses resulted in third quarter financial performance in-line with expectations despite the challenging marine market," said Brunswick Chief Executive Officer, David Foulkes. "We continue to tightly manage field inventory across all our channels, and have adjusted production accordingly, yet are still gaining or maintaining


share in key categories, including U.S. outboard engines, where Mercury delivered 420 basis points of share gains in the third quarter versus prior year.

As we enter the final months of the year, we estimate full year new boat retail unit sales to finish in-line with our expectations of down approximately 10 percent versus prior year. With the core retail selling season behind us and retail discounting levels remaining elevated, dealer re-ordering in some segments is slower than anticipated, leading most boat OEMs to maintain lower production rates, impacting Propulsion and Navico Group OEM orders. However, our aftermarket-based engine parts, accessories, and distribution businesses and Freedom Boat Club continue to perform well as boating participation remains strong. Prudent capital management remains a priority and we recently executed an amendment increasing our revolving credit facility to $1.0 billion and extending the maturity to October 2029. We also increased the size of our commercial paper program permitting the issuance of commercial paper notes up to $1.0 billion to provide further capital flexibility.

As anticipated, our propulsion business delivered lower sales and operating earnings versus the third quarter of 2023, but we continue to outpace the market at retail and have gained 130 basis points of U.S. outboard engine share year-to-date.

Our engine parts and accessories business had another strong quarter, with record operating margins for any quarter and strong year-over-year earnings growth despite slightly lower sales. The completed transition of engine parts and accessories distribution to our new, state-of-the-art facility in Brownsburg, Indiana continues to provide efficiency and delivery time benefits, enabling modest international sales growth versus the prior year quarter.

Navico Group had lower sales and operating earnings versus the third quarter of 2023 as anticipated due to continued soft marine OEM order rates and retailers delaying aftermarket orders until closer to the holiday selling season, which was partially offset by slight international sales growth. Our accelerated pace of product investments is showing benefits including at the recent Cannes Boat Festival where Navico Group products were present on approximately 70 percent of boats exhibited.

Finally, our boat business had sales and operating earnings below the third quarter of 2023, consistent with lower planned production levels and fewer manufacturing days due to the annual summer shutdowns. Freedom Boat Club continues to deliver steady membership sales growth and completed its acquisition of the South Florida franchise operations and territory, further solidifying its leadership position in the largest U.S. boating state.
            

Our third quarter results again demonstrated the resiliency of our portfolio, with our recurring revenue businesses and channels, including our Engine P&A business, Propulsion’s repower business, Freedom Boat Club, and Navico Group's aftermarket sales, contributing nearly 70 percent of our third quarter adjusted operating earnings. In addition, our businesses delivered strong cash flow, completing $190 million in share repurchases year-to-date and maintaining our commitment to return value to shareholders," Foulkes concluded.

2024 Third Quarter Results

For the third quarter of 2024, Brunswick reported consolidated net sales of $1,273.3 million, down from $1,593.6 million in the third quarter of 2023. Diluted EPS for the quarter was $0.71 on a GAAP basis and $1.17 on an as adjusted basis. Third quarter sales were below prior year as the impact of continued lower wholesale ordering by dealers and OEMs, combined with higher discounts in certain business segments, was only partially offset by annual price increases and benefits from well-received new products. Operating earnings were down versus prior year as a result of the impact of lower sales and lower absorption from decreased production levels, partially offset by new product momentum, annual price increases and ongoing cost control measures throughout the enterprise. In addition, versus the third quarter of 2023:
Propulsion segment reported a 32 percent decrease in sales resulting from the enterprise factors listed above, partially offset by market share gains. Operating earnings were below prior year primarily due to lower sales and the impact of lower absorption from decreased production levels, partially offset by cost control measures.
Engine Parts and Accessories segment reported a 3 percent decrease in sales versus the same period last year. The Products business sales were down 3 percent, and Distribution business sales were down 2 percent compared to prior year. Segment operating margin was a record 26 percent, up more than 300 basis points versus prior year resulting from the efficient performance of the operations in Brownsburg, Indiana and cost control across the business.
Navico Group segment reported a sales decrease of 14 percent, primarily driven by reduced sales to marine OEMs resulting from lower boat production levels to match retail ordering patterns, partially offset by higher international sales and strong new product momentum. Segment operating earnings decreased as the impact from lower sales was only partially offset by lower operating expenses.
            

Boat segment reported a 19 percent decrease in sales resulting from softer wholesale orders, as its channel partners continued to order cautiously, and higher incentives and discounting were only partially offset by the favorable impact of modest model-year price increases. Freedom Boat Club had another strong quarter, contributing approximately 12 percent of segment sales including the benefits from recent acquisitions. Segment operating earnings were within expectations as the impact of net sales declines and lower absorption from the reduced production was partially offset by pricing and continued cost control.
Review of Cash Flow and Balance Sheet
Cash and marketable securities totaled $301.7 million at the end of the third quarter, down $178.0 million from 2023 year-end levels.
Net cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations during the first nine months of the year was $137.5 million including net earnings net of non-cash items and the impact of working capital.
Investing and financing activities resulted in net cash used of $301.0 million during the first nine months of 2024 including $451.9 million of repayments of long-term debt, $190.0 million of share repurchases, $137.1 million of capital expenditures, $84.6 million of dividend payments, and $80.9 million of purchases of marketable securities, net of $396.9 million of proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt, $200.8 million of proceeds from the issuance of short-term debt, and $82.1 million of sales or maturities of marketable securities.
2024 Outlook

"With the majority of the retail selling season behind us, the 2024 U.S. marine retail market is trending to our most recent forecast of down approximately 10 percent, with wholesale production of boats and engines down more significantly. While consumers have begun to experience some interest rate relief, given the time in the selling season, we do not foresee this catalyzing an acceleration in OEM and channel partner order patterns through the balance of the year, and we anticipate more meaningful benefits to begin to emerge in the 2025 season. The recent hurricanes impacting Florida and the Southeastern U.S. are also expected to have a modest negative impact on demand in those areas; we wish all those impacted a speedy recovery. In these challenging conditions, our resilient, recurring revenue businesses and channels are demonstrating their
            

earnings and cash flow power, which is helping to mitigate the impacts from the softer market conditions.

We are not anticipating any change in market conditions for the fourth quarter, and are responding by adjusting production to ensure field inventory levels remain appropriate, setting us up for what we anticipate to be a stronger 2025. We will be optimizing promotional activity in the fourth quarter to avoid pulling forward excessive wholesale sales out of 2025, however, we will to continue to launch many exciting new products in the balance of the year to support future share gains while investing in our long-term growth initiatives, and driving resilient EPS and free cash flow," said Foulkes. "The result is the following updated guidance:
1.Net sales between $5.1 to $5.2 billion;
2.Adjusted diluted EPS of approximately $4.50;
3.Free Cash Flow of approximately $250 million; and
4.Annual share repurchases of approximately $200 million."
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures used in this release, including adjusted operating earnings, adjusted operating margin, free cash flow, and adjusted diluted EPS, 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 acquisitions, among other adjustments.
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.
