American Outdoor Brands Corporation Reports Second Quarter Fiscal 2020 Financial Results
Second Quarter Fiscal 2020 Financial Highlights
- Quarterly net sales were
$154.4 million compared with$161.7 million for the second quarter last year, a decrease of 4.5%. It should be noted that$8.1 million of incremental revenue in the quarter was the result of a change required by theTax and Trade Bureau related to the timing of federal excise tax assessment within the company's Firearms segment. That change had no impact on gross margin dollars or operating expenses. Further details related to that change are outlined in the company's Form 10-Q filed concurrently with this press release. - Gross margin for the quarter was 32.6% compared with 34.9% for the comparable quarter last year.
- Quarterly GAAP net income was
$1.3 million , or$0.02 per diluted share, compared with net income of$6.7 million , or$0.12 per diluted share, for the comparable quarter last year. - Quarterly non-GAAP net income was
$5.2 million , or$0.09 per diluted share, compared with$11.0 million , or$0.20 per diluted share, for the comparable quarter last year. GAAP to non-GAAP adjustments to net income exclude a number of acquisition-related costs and other costs. For a detailed reconciliation, see the schedules that follow in this release. - Quarterly non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDAS was
$20.9 million , or 13.5% of net sales, compared with$26.7 million , or 16.5% of net sales, for the comparable quarter last year.
"Subsequent to the end of the second quarter, we announced a plan to spin-off our outdoor products and accessories business as a tax-free stock dividend to our stockholders. We expect to complete the transaction in the second half of calendar 2020, thereby creating two independent publicly traded companies:
The consummation of the spin-off is subject to final approval of the company's Board of Directors, customary regulatory approvals, and tax and legal considerations.

Reconciliation of U.S. GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In this press release, certain non-GAAP financial measures, including "non-GAAP net income," "Adjusted EBITDAS," and "free cash flow" are presented. From time-to-time, the company considers and uses these 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) transition costs, (iii) fair value inventory step-up expense, (iv) recall related expenses, (v) change in contingent consideration; (vi) the tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments, (vii) net cash (used in)/provided by operating activities, (viii) net cash used in investing activities, (ix) interest expense, (x) income tax expense, (xi) depreciation and amortization, and (xii) stock-based compensation expenses, ; 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. 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.
