OUTLOOK
CFO Andrew Page said, “Our strong financial performance in Q2 reinforces my confidence in our near- and long-term path forward. Organic revenue growth in the high-teens and significant gross- and operating-margin expansion reflects the combination of great brands, strong management execution, and a disciplined approach to expenses and working capital. These outstanding results give us the confidence to raise our full-year sales and earnings guidance."
FULL-YEAR 2024
Amer Sports is updating guidance for the year ending December 31, 2024 (all guidance figures reference adjusted amounts):
•Reported revenue growth: 15 - 17%
•Gross margin: approximately 54.5%
•Operating margin: toward high-end of 10.5 - 11.0%
•D&A: approximately $250 million, including approximately $110 million of ROU depreciation
•Net finance cost: $200 - $220 million, including approximately $15 million of finance costs in the first quarter 2024 that won’t be recurring
•Effective tax rate: approximately 38%
•Fully diluted share count: 500 million
•Fully diluted EPS: $0.40 - $0.44
•Technical Apparel: greater than 30% revenue growth; segment operating margin slightly above 20%
•Outdoor Performance: mid-to-high-single-digit revenue growth; segment operating margin high-single digit %.
•Ball & Racquet: low-to-mid single-digit revenue growth, and low-to-mid single-digit segment operating margin

Note: In the second quarter, we recognized an incremental tax benefit of $20 million related primarily to the resolution of uncertain tax positions, which benefited Q2 diluted EPS by approximately $0.04 per share. Additionally, approximately $20 million of wholesale orders shipped earlier than anticipated, which benefited Q2 sales growth by approximately 2% and diluted EPS by $0.01 per share. These timing shifts do not impact our full year guidance.

3 Net debt is defined as the principal value of loans from financial institutions and other interest-bearing liabilities, less cash and cash equivalents

Amer Sports is providing the following guidance for the third quarter ending September 30, 2024 (all guidance figures reference adjusted amounts):
•Reported revenue growth: 12 - 13%

•Effective tax rate: 50 - 55%
•Fully diluted share count: 510 million
•Fully diluted EPS: $0.08 - $0.10
Other than with respect to revenue, Amer Sports only provides guidance on a non-IFRS basis. The Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking non-IFRS measures to the most directly comparable IFRS Accounting Standards measures due to the difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations without unreasonable efforts. The Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable reconciling items, which could have a potentially significant impact on its future IFRS financial results. The above outlook reflects the Company’s current and preliminary estimates of market and operating conditions and customer demand, which are all subject to change. Actual results may differ materially from these forward-looking statements, including as a result of, among other things, the factors described under “Forward-Looking Statements” below and in our filings with the SEC.

NON-IFRS MEASURES
Adjusted gross profit margin, adjusted SG&A expenses, adjusted operating profit margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net (loss)/income, and adjusted diluted (loss)/income per share are financial measures that are not defined under IFRS Accounting Standards. Adjusted gross profit margin is calculated as adjusted gross profit divided by revenue. Adjusted gross profit is calculated as gross profit excluding amortization related to certain purchase price adjustments (PPA) in connection with the acquisition and delisting of Amer Sports in 2019 and restructuring expenses. Adjusted SG&A also excludes PPA amortization, as well as adjustments to exclude restructuring expenses, expenses related to transaction activities, expenses related to certain legal proceedings, and certain share-based payments. Adjusted operating profit margin is calculated as adjusted operating profit divided by revenue. Adjusted operating profit is calculated as loss before tax with adjustments to exclude PPA amortization, restructuring expenses, impairment losses on goodwill and intangible assets, expenses related to transaction activities, expenses related to certain legal proceedings, certain share-based payments, finance costs, and finance income. EBITDA is calculated as net (loss)/income attributable to equity holders of the Company, plus net income attributable to non-controlling interests, income tax expense, finance cost, loss on debt extinguishment, depreciation and amortization and minus finance income, from both continuing and discontinued operations. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as EBITDA with adjustments to exclude results from discontinued operations, restructuring expenses, impairment losses on goodwill and intangible assets, expenses related to transaction activities, expenses related to certain legal proceedings and certain share-based payments. Adjusted net (loss)/income is calculated as net (loss)/income attributable to equity holders with adjustments to exclude PPA amortization, loss from discontinued operations, restructuring expenses, impairment losses on goodwill and intangible assets, expenses related to transaction activities, expenses related to certain legal proceedings, certain share-based payments, loss on debt extinguishment and related income tax expense. “Omni-comp” is defined as year over year revenue growth from owned retail stores and e-commerce sites that have been open at least 13 months.
The Company believes that these non IFRS measures, when taken together with its financial results presented in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards, provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its operating performance and facilitate internal comparisons of its historical operating performance on a more consistent basis by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of our business, results of operations or outlook. In particular, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net (loss)/income are helpful to investors as they are measures used by management in assessing the health of the business and evaluating operating performance, as well as for internal planning and forecasting purposes. Non-IFRS financial measures however are subject to inherent limitations, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to IFRS measures. The supplemental tables below provide reconciliations of each non-IFRS financial measure presented to its most directly comparable IFRS Accounting Standards financial measure.
