Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

Note 1 – Significant Accounting Policies

Interim Financial Statements. Brunswick's unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. Therefore, certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements and related notes prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with, and have been prepared in conformity with, the accounting principles reflected in the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in Brunswick's 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the 2023 Form 10-K). These results include, in management's opinion, all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly Brunswick's financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Due to the seasonality of Brunswick's businesses, the interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the remainder of the year.

The Company maintains its financial records on the basis of a fiscal year ending on December 31, with the fiscal quarters spanning approximately thirteen weeks. The first quarter ends on the Saturday closest to the end of the first thirteen-week period. The second and third quarters are thirteen weeks in duration and the fourth quarter is the remainder of the year. The second quarter of fiscal year 2024 ended on June 29, 2024 and the second quarter of fiscal year 2023 ended on July 1, 2023.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

Segment Reporting: In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280) — Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which adds new disclosure requirements related to significant segment expenses regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (CODM) and included in each reported measure of segment profit or loss, other segment items that constitute the difference between segment revenues less significant segment expenses and the measure of profit or loss, disclosure of the CODMs title and position as well as an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measures and expanded interim disclosures. ASU 2023-07 is effective for financial statements for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting this guidance on the consolidated financial statements.

Income Taxes: In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) — Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. Under this ASU, entities must disclose, on an annual basis, specific categories in the rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. In addition, ASU 2023-09 requires entities to disclose additional information about income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 is effective for financial statements for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting this guidance on the consolidated financial statements.

Note 4 – Acquisitions

2023 Acquisitions

During the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company acquired additional Freedom Boat Club franchise operations and territories in the Southeast United States. These acquisitions should unlock operational efficiencies while providing members with additional boating destinations, as the Company plans for continued expansion across the Southeast Coastal region. These acquisitions are included as part of the Company's Boat segment.

The Company paid net cash consideration of $16.0 million for these acquisitions. The opening balance sheets, which are preliminary and subject to change in the measurement period as the Company finalizes the purchase price allocation and fair value estimates, include $12.9 million of goodwill and $3.3 million of customer relationships. The amount assigned to customer relationships will be amortized over the estimated useful life of 10 years. Transaction costs associated with these acquisitions were not material to the Company's consolidated results of operations.

On September 1, 2023, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Fliteboard Pty Ltd (Fliteboard) for $88.3 million net cash consideration. Fliteboard is a leader in eFoiling technology, which combines advanced hydrofoils and electric propulsion on the water. The acquisition of Fliteboard allows the Company to enter the emerging electric-foiling surfboard market and presents the opportunity for technological, manufacturing, commercial and consumer synergies with our existing portfolio. Fliteboard is included as part of the Company's Propulsion segment.

The opening balance sheet, which is preliminary and subject to change in the measurement period as the Company finalizes the purchase price allocation and fair value estimates, includes $37.3 million of goodwill, $20.7 million of trade names, $8.4 million of customer relationships, and $7.1 million of developed technology. The amounts assigned to customer relationships and developed technology will be amortized over the estimated useful lives of 15 years and 10 years, respectively. Transaction costs associated with the acquisition of $1.9 million were expensed as incurred within Selling, general and administrative expense in 2023.

These 2023 acquisitions are not material to the Company's net sales, results of operations, or total assets during any period presented. Accordingly, the Company's consolidated results of operations do not differ materially from historical performance as a result of the acquisitions, and pro forma results for prior periods are not presented.

Note 5 – Financial Instruments

The Company operates globally with manufacturing and sales facilities around the world. Due to the Company’s global operations, the Company engages in activities involving both financial and market risks. The Company utilizes normal operating and financing activities, along with derivative financial instruments, to minimize these risks. See Note 12 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2023 Form 10-K for further details regarding the Company's financial instruments and hedging policies.

Note 11 – Income Taxes

The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023 was 20.9 percent and 21.2 percent, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 29, 2024 was lower than the same period in the prior year, primarily due to lower pretax income in high tax jurisdictions.

The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023 was 21.1 percent and 35.3 percent, respectively. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 29, 2024 was lower than the same period in the prior year, primarily due to the prior year intercompany sale of certain intellectual property rights from one of our affiliates in Norway to the United States and lower pretax income in high tax jurisdictions.

The Company has evaluated the effects of the Global Anti-Base Erosion Model Rules set forth by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), referred to as “Pillar Two”, which establishes a global minimum corporate tax rate of 15 percent. The Company has determined that Pillar Two legislation has been enacted in one or more of the jurisdictions in which we operate and the Company is within the scope of the legislation. The Company assessed such enacted legislation, and, as applicable, the transitional safe harbor provisions of Pillar Two, and concluded that the tax effects are not material to the financial statements.

(A) During the first quarter of 2024, $400.0 million of 5.850% Senior Notes due 2029 were issued.

As of June 29, 2024, Brunswick was in compliance with the financial covenants associated with its debt.

2029 Notes

In March 2024, the Company issued an aggregate principal amount of $400.0 million of 5.850% Senior Notes due 2029 (the 2029 Notes) in a public offering, which resulted in aggregate net proceeds to the Company of $396.9 million. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of the 2029 Notes for general corporate purposes, which may include the repayment, repurchase or redemption of certain of its outstanding securities, including its 0.85% Senior Notes due 2024, as may be determined by management from time to time.

The 2029 Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.850% per year. Interest on the 2029 Notes is payable semiannually in arrears on March 18 and September 18 of each year, and the first interest payment date will be September 18, 2024. The 2029 Notes will mature on March 18, 2029.

The Company may, at its option, redeem the 2029 Notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time prior to maturity. If the Company elects to redeem any (or all) of the 2029 Notes at any time prior to February 18, 2029 (the date that is one month prior to the maturity of the 2029 Notes), it will pay a "make-whole" redemption price set forth in the Sixth Supplemental Indenture dated as of March 18, 2024 (Sixth Supplemental Indenture) to the Indenture dated as of October 3, 2018. On or after February 18, 2029, the Company may, at its option, redeem the 2029 Notes, in whole or in part at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof. In addition to the redemption price, the Company will pay accrued and unpaid interest, if any.

If the Company experiences a change of control triggering event with respect to the 2029 Notes, as defined in the Sixth Supplemental Indenture, each holder of the 2029 Notes may require the Company to repurchase some or all of its 2029 Notes at a price equal to 101% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest.

Debentures

During the third quarter of 2023, the Company made the remaining principal repayments, totaling $79.7 million, of its 7.375% debentures due 2023. The debentures were repaid at 100 percent of the principal amount plus accrued interest in accordance with the provisions of the debentures.

Note 13 – Supplier Finance Program Obligations

Under our supplier finance program, the Company agrees to pay Bank of America (the Bank) the stated amount of confirmed invoices from our suppliers on the original invoice payment due date. Our suppliers may request payment from the Bank at a date earlier than the payment due date stated on the original invoice in exchange for a fee in the form of a discounted invoice amount. Brunswick or the Bank may terminate the agreement upon at least 90 days notice. The supplier invoices that have been confirmed as valid under the program require payment ranging from 60 to 120 days from the invoice date, consistent with the terms of the original invoice. The Company does not pay the Bank any service fees or subscription fees under the program. In addition, the Company does not pledge any assets as security or provide other forms of guarantees for the committed payment to the Bank.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Certain statements in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of Brunswick Corporation (the Company, we, us, our) are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations, estimates, and projections about our business and by their nature address matters that are, to different degrees, uncertain. Actual results may differ materially from expectations and projections as of the date of this filing due to various risks and uncertainties. For additional information regarding forward-looking statements, refer to Forward-Looking Statements below.

Certain statements in Management's Discussion and Analysis are based on 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 consolidated 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. For example, the discussion of our cash flows includes an analysis of free cash flows and total liquidity; the discussion of our net sales includes net sales on a constant currency basis; the discussion of our net sales includes net sales excluding acquisitions; and the discussion of our earnings includes a presentation of operating earnings and operating margin excluding restructuring, exit and impairment charges, purchase accounting amortization, acquisition, integration, and IT related costs, IT security incident costs and other applicable charges and of diluted earnings per common share, as adjusted. Non-GAAP financial measures do not include operating and statistical measures.

We include non-GAAP financial measures in Management's Discussion and Analysis as management believes these measures and the information they provide are useful to investors because they permit investors to view our performance using the same tools that management uses to evaluate our ongoing business performance. In order to better align our reported results with the internal metrics management uses to evaluate business performance as well as to provide better comparisons to prior periods and peer data, non-GAAP measures exclude the impact of purchase accounting amortization related to acquisitions, among other adjustments.

We do not provide forward-looking guidance for certain financial measures on a GAAP basis because we are 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.

Acquisitions

During the fourth quarter of 2023, we acquired additional Freedom Boat Club franchise operations and territory rights as well as certain marine assets in the Southeast United States for net cash consideration of $16.0 million. On September 1, 2023, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Fliteboard for $88.3 million net cash consideration. Refer to Note 4 – Acquisitions in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

Overview

Net sales decreased 15 percent during the second quarter of 2024 when compared with the second quarter of 2023, as the impact of continued lower wholesale ordering by dealers and OEMs, coupled with higher discounts in certain business segments, was only partially offset by annual price increases and benefits from well-received new products. Despite our Propulsion segment delivering lower sales and operating earnings versus the second quarter of 2023, year-to-date we continue to gain share in outboard engines, with more than 48 percent overall share of the U.S. outboard market. In addition, Propulsion's controls, rigging, and propeller product category had a strong quarter with operating margins ahead of the same period in 2023. Our Engine Parts and Accessories (Engine P&A) segment had a strong quarter, with sales and operating earnings up versus the second quarter of 2023, and we completed the full transition of Engine P&A distribution to our new, state-of-the-art facility in Brownsburg, Indiana. As anticipated, our Navico Group segment had lower sales and operating earnings versus the second quarter of 2023, due to reduced marine OEM order rates and persistently slow RV orders but continued to show stability, with sequential improvement in aftermarket sales and overall sales and operating earnings consistent with first quarter results. Our Boat segment had a solid performance given market conditions, with sales and operating earnings below the prior year quarter, consistent with lower planned production levels. Our international net sales decreased 8 percent and 6 percent in the second quarter on a GAAP and constant currency basis, respectively.

Net sales decreased 19 percent during the first half of 2024, when compared with the first half of 2023, due to the same factors described above. Our international net sales decreased 14 percent and 13 percent in the first half on a GAAP and constant currency basis, respectively.

Operating earnings in the second quarter of 2024 were $158.3 million and $180.8 million on a GAAP and As Adjusted basis, respectively. This compares to operating earnings during the second quarter of 2023 of $194.4 million and $234.9 million on a GAAP and As Adjusted basis, respectively.

Operating earnings in the first half of 2024 were $268.9 million and $322.3 million on a GAAP and As Adjusted basis, respectively. This compares to operating earnings during the first half of 2023 of $430.5 million and $497.3 million on a GAAP and As Adjusted basis, respectively.

Matters Affecting Comparability

Changes in Foreign Currency Rates. Percentage changes in net sales expressed in constant currency reflect the impact that changes in currency exchange rates had on comparisons of net sales. To determine this information, net sales transacted in currencies other than the U.S. dollar have been translated to U.S. dollars using the average exchange rates that were in effect during the comparative period. The percentage change in net sales expressed on a constant currency basis better reflects the changes in the underlying business trends, excluding the impact of translation arising from foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. Approximately 26 percent of our annual net sales are transacted in a currency other than the U.S. dollar. Our most material exposures include sales in Euros, Canadian dollars, Australian dollars, and Brazilian real.

The table below summarizes the impact of changes in currency exchange rates and also the impact of acquisitions on our net sales:

Gross margin decreased 60 basis points in the second quarter of 2024 when compared to the same prior year period, driven by higher manufacturing costs including absorption (210 bps), material and labor inflation (65 bps) and depreciation (15 bps), partially offset by unfavorable timing of capitalized variances in the prior year (170 bps), favorable foreign currency exchange-rate fluctuations (20 bps), sales-related drivers (20 bps) and acquisitions (20 bps).

Gross margin decreased 120 basis points in the first half of 2024 when compared to the same prior year period, driven by higher manufacturing costs including absorption (120 bps) and depreciation (20 bps) as well as foreign currency exchange-rate fluctuations (20 bps), partially offset by sales-related drivers (25 bps) and acquisitions (15 bps).

Selling, general and administrative expense as a percentage of net sales was flat during the second quarter of 2024 when compared with the same prior year period, due to lower sales (230 bps), offset by cost control measures across the enterprise, including lower employee compensation costs associated with headcount reductions and lower variable compensation (230 bps). Research and development expense decreased in the second quarter of 2024 versus the same period in 2023.

Selling, general and administrative expense as a percentage of net sales increased 130 basis points during the first half of 2024 when compared with the same prior year period, due to lower sales (280 bps), partially offset by cost control measures across the enterprise, including lower employee compensation costs associated with headcount reductions and lower variable compensation (150 bps). Research and development expense decreased in the first half of 2024 versus the same period in 2023.

We recorded Restructuring, exit and impairment charges of $7.9 million and $21.4 million during the three and six months ended June 29, 2024, respectively. We recorded Restructuring, exit and impairment charges of $13.9 million and $23.4 million during the three and six months ended July 1, 2023, respectively. We estimate the first half 2024 actions will result in approximately $14 million of cost savings. Refer to Note 3 – Restructuring, Exit and Impairment Activities in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

We recorded Equity earnings of $2.9 million and $5.4 million in the three and six months ended June 29, 2024, respectively, which were primarily related to our marine and technology-related joint ventures. This compares with Equity earnings of $2.2 million and $4.4 million in the three and six months ended July 1, 2023, respectively.

We recognized $(0.8) million of Other (expense) income, net in the three and six months ended June 29, 2024, respectively. This compares with $1.8 million and $0.9 million of Other (expense) income, net in the three and six months ended July 1, 2023, respectively. Other (expense) income, net primarily includes remeasurement gains and losses resulting from changes in foreign currency rates and other postretirement benefit costs.

Net interest expense increased for the three and six months ended June 29, 2024 when compared with the same prior year period due to an increase in average daily debt outstanding, which was influenced by the timing of debt issuances. Refer to Note 12 – Debt in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Note 14 – Debt in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2023 Form 10-K.

We recognized an income tax provision for the three and six months ended June 29, 2024 of $27.7 million and $46.3 million, respectively, compared to $36.3 million and $135.3 million for the three and six months ended July 1, 2023, respectively. The decrease in the income tax provision for the three months ended June 29, 2024 is due to lower pretax income in high tax jurisdictions. The decrease in the income tax provision for the six months ended June 29, 2024 is due to the prior year intercompany sale of certain intellectual property rights and lower pretax income in high tax jurisdictions. We have also evaluated the effects of Pillar Two legislation and concluded that the tax effects are not material to the financial statements. Refer to Note 11 – Income Taxes in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

The effective tax rate, which is calculated as the income tax provision as a percentage of earnings before income taxes, was 20.9 percent and 21.1 percent for the three and six months ended June 29, 2024, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended July 1, 2023 was 21.2 percent and 35.3 percent, respectively.

Due to the factors described in the preceding paragraphs, operating earnings, net earnings from continuing operations, and diluted earnings per common share from continuing operations decreased during both the three and six months ended June 29, 2024 when compared with the same prior year period.

Plus: Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents	(7.0)		1.6

Total free cash flow (A)	$	(35.1)	$	88.9

(A) We define "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, net of tax) and the effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents. Free cash flow is not intended as an alternative measure of cash flow from operations, as determined in accordance with GAAP in the United States. We use this financial measure both in presenting our results to shareholders and the investment community and in our internal evaluation and management of our businesses. We believe that this financial measure and the information it provides are useful to investors because it permits investors to view our performance using the same tool that we use to gauge progress in achieving our goals. We believe that the non-GAAP financial measure "Free cash flow" is also useful to investors because it is an indication of cash flow that may be available to fund investments in future growth initiatives.

Our major sources of funds for capital investments, acquisitions, share repurchase programs and dividend payments are cash generated from operating activities, available cash and marketable securities balances, divestitures and borrowings. We evaluate potential acquisitions, divestitures and joint ventures in the ordinary course of business.

2024 Cash Flow

Net cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations in the six months ended June 29, 2024 totaled $67.6 million compared to $254.4 million in the six months ended July 1, 2023. The decrease is primarily due to a higher build of working capital and lower net earnings. Working capital is defined as Accounts and notes receivable, Inventories and Prepaid expenses and other, net of Accounts payable and Accrued expenses as presented in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, excluding the impact of acquisitions and non-cash adjustments.

The levels of borrowing capacity under our Credit Facility and CP Program are limited by both a leverage and interest coverage test. These covenants also pertain to termination provisions included in our wholesale financing joint-venture arrangements with Wells Fargo Commercial Distribution Finance. Based on our anticipated earnings generation throughout the year, we expect to maintain sufficient cushion against the existing debt covenants.

2024 Capital Strategy

We continue to moderate our capital expenditure spending for the year and now anticipate less than $175 million of spending for the year. We have revised our share repurchase plan and now anticipate share repurchases between $200 and $220 million of shares in 2024, consistent with our initial assumptions for the year.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations, estimates, and projections about Brunswick’s business and by their nature address matters that are, to different degrees, uncertain. Words such as “may,” “could,” “should,” “expect,” "anticipate," "project," "position," “intend,” “target,” “plan,” “seek,” “estimate,” “believe,” “predict,” “outlook,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from expectations as of the date of this report. These risks include, but are not limited to: the effect of adverse general economic conditions, including rising interest rates, and the amount of disposable income consumers have available for discretionary spending; changes in currency exchange rates; fiscal and monetary policy changes; adverse capital market conditions; competitive pricing pressures; higher energy and fuel costs; managing our manufacturing footprint and operations; loss of key customers; international business risks, geopolitical tensions or conflicts, sanctions, embargoes, or other regulations; actual or anticipated increases in costs, disruptions of supply, or defects in raw materials, parts, or components we purchase from third parties; supplier manufacturing constraints, increased demand for shipping carriers, and transportation disruptions; adverse weather conditions, climate change events and other catastrophic event risks; our ability to develop new and innovative products and services at a competitive price; our ability to meet demand in a rapidly changing environment; absorbing fixed costs in production; public health emergencies or pandemics, such as the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic; risks associated with joint ventures that do not operate solely for our benefit; our ability to successfully implement our strategic plan and growth initiatives; attracting and retaining skilled labor, implementing succession plans for key leadership, and executing organizational and leadership changes; our ability to integrate acquisitions and the risk for associated disruption to our business; our ability to identify, complete, and integrate targeted acquisitions; the risk that restructuring or strategic divestitures will not provide business benefits; maintaining effective distribution; dealers and customers being able to access adequate financing; inventory reductions by dealers, retailers, or independent boat builders; requirements for us to repurchase inventory; risks related to the Freedom Boat Club franchise business model; outages, breaches, or other cybersecurity events regarding our technology systems, which have affected and could further affect manufacturing and business operations and could result in lost or stolen information and associated remediation costs; our ability to protect our brands and intellectual property; changes to trade policy and tariffs; an impairment to the value of goodwill and other assets; product liability, warranty, and other claims risks; legal, environmental, and other regulatory compliance, including increased costs, fines, and reputational risks; changes in income tax legislation or enforcement; managing our share repurchases; and risks associated with certain divisive shareholder activist actions.

Additional risk factors are included in the 2023 Form 10-K. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made, and Brunswick does not undertake any obligation to update them to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Item 5. Other Information

Securities Trading Plans of Executive Officers and Directors

Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act provides an affirmative defense that enables pre-arranged transactions in securities in a manner that avoids concerns about initiating transactions at a future date while possibly in possession of material nonpublic information. Our Insider Trading and Unauthorized Disclosures Policy permits our officers and directors to enter into trading plans designed to comply with Rule 10b5-1.

During the quarterly period ended June 29, 2024, none of our officers (as defined in Rule 16a-1(f) under the Exchange Act) or directors adopted or terminated a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan or adopted or terminated a non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement (as defined in Item 408(c) of Regulation S-K).
