Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

June 26, 2021

(In thousands, except per share information)

1. Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified or presented to conform to the current period presentation. Additionally, the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with Part I, Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of this Form 10-Q. Operating results for the 13-week and 26-week periods ended June 26, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 25, 2021.

The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 26, 2020 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 26, 2020.

The Company’s fiscal year is based on a 52- or 53-week period ending on the last Saturday of the calendar year. Therefore, the financial results of certain 53-week fiscal years, and the associated 14-week quarters, will not be exactly comparable to the prior and subsequent 52-week fiscal years and the associated 13-week quarters. The quarters ended June 26, 2021 and June 27, 2020 both contain operating results for 13 weeks.

Significant Accounting Policies

For a description of the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, refer to Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 26, 2020. There were no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies during the 26-week period ended June 26, 2021.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards and Pronouncements

We do not expect any recently adopted accounting standards, or recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted, to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, accounting policies, processes, or systems.

2. Inventories

The components of inventories consist of the following:

|  | June 26, 2021 |  |  | December 26, 2020 |
Raw materials |  | $ | 395,295 |  |  | $ | 282,287 |

4. Segment Information

Garmin is organized in the six operating segments of fitness, outdoor, aviation, marine, consumer auto, and auto OEM. The fitness, outdoor, aviation, and marine operating segments represent reportable segments. The consumer auto and auto OEM operating segments, which serve the auto market, do not meet the quantitative thresholds to separately qualify as reportable segments, and they are therefore reported together in an “all other” category captioned as auto. Fitness, outdoor, aviation, marine, and auto are collectively referred to as our reported segments.

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer, who has been identified as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), uses operating income as the measure of profit or loss, combined with other measures, to assess segment performance and allocate resources. Operating income represents net sales less costs of goods sold and operating expenses. Net sales are directly attributed to each segment. Most costs of goods sold and the majority of operating expenses are also directly attributed to each segment, while certain other costs of goods sold and operating expenses are allocated to the segments in a manner appropriate to the specific facts and circumstances of the expenses being allocated.

Net sales (“revenue”), gross profit, and operating income for each of the Company’s five reported segments are presented below, along with supplemental financial information for the auto OEM and consumer auto operating segments that management believes is useful.

5. Warranty Reserves

The Company’s standard warranty obligation to its end-users provides for a period of one to two years from the date of shipment, while certain auto, aviation, and marine OEM products have a warranty period of two years or more from the date of installation. The Company’s estimates of costs to service its warranty obligations are based on historical experience and management’s expectations and judgments of future conditions, and are recorded as a liability on the balance sheet. The following reconciliation provides an illustration of changes in the aggregate warranty reserve.

6. Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments

The Company is party to certain commitments, which include purchases of inventory, capital expenditures, advertising, and other services in connection with conducting our business. The aggregate amount of purchase orders and other commitments open as of June 26, 2021 was approximately $1,298,000. We cannot determine the aggregate amount of such purchase orders that represent contractual obligations because purchase orders may represent authorizations to purchase rather than binding agreements.

Certain cash balances are held as collateral in relation to bank guarantees. This restricted cash is reported within Other assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and totaled $773 and $306 on June 26, 2021 and December 26, 2020, respectively. The total of the Cash and cash equivalents balance and the restricted cash reported within Other assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets equals the total Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash shown in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries are parties to various legal claims, investigations and complaints, including matters alleging patent infringement and other intellectual property claims. The Company evaluates, on a quarterly and annual basis, developments in legal proceedings, investigations, claims, and other loss contingencies that could affect any required accrual or disclosure or estimate of reasonably possible loss or range of loss. An estimated loss from a loss contingency is accrued by a charge to income if it is probable that an asset has been impaired or a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. If a range of loss is estimated, and some amount within that range appears to be a better estimate than any other amount within that range, then that amount is accrued. If no amount within the range can be identified as a better estimate than any other amount, the Company accrues the minimum amount in the range.

If an outcome unfavorable to the Company is determined to be probable, but the amount of loss cannot be reasonably estimated or is determined to be reasonably possible, but not probable, we disclose the nature of the contingency and an estimate of the possible loss or range of loss or a statement that such an estimate cannot be made. The Company’s aggregate range of reasonably possible losses includes (1) matters where a liability has been accrued and there is a reasonably possible loss in excess of the amount accrued for that liability, and (2) matters where a loss is believed to be reasonably possible, but not probable, and a liability therefore has not been accrued. This aggregate range only represents the Company’s estimate of reasonably possible losses and does not represent the Company’s maximum loss exposure. The assessment regarding whether a loss is probable or reasonably possible, and whether the loss or a range of loss is estimable, often involves a series of complex judgments about future events. In assessing the probability of an outcome in a lawsuit, claim or assessment that could be unfavorable to the Company, we consider the following factors, among others: a) the nature of the litigation, claim, or assessment; b) the progress of the case; c) the opinions or views of legal counsel and other advisers; d) our experience in similar cases; e) the experience of other entities in similar cases; and f) how we intend to respond to the lawsuit, claim, or assessment. Costs incurred in defending lawsuits, claims or assessments are expensed as incurred.

Management of the Company currently does not believe it is reasonably possible that the Company may have incurred a material loss, or a material loss in excess of recorded accruals, with respect to loss contingencies in the aggregate, for the fiscal quarter ended June 26, 2021. The results of legal proceedings, investigations and claims, however, cannot be predicted with certainty. An adverse resolution of one or more of such matters in excess of management’s expectations could have a material adverse effect in the particular quarter or fiscal year in which a loss is recorded, but based on information currently known, the Company does not believe it is likely that losses from such matters would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business or its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The Company settled or resolved certain matters during the 13-week and 26-week periods ended June 26, 2021 that did not individually or in the aggregate have a material impact on the Company’s business or its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

7. Income Taxes

The Company recorded income tax expense of $55,062 in the 13-week period ended June 26, 2021, compared to income tax expense of $13,412 in the 13-week period ended June 27, 2020. The effective tax rate was 14.8% in the second quarter of 2021, compared to 6.8% in the second quarter of 2020. The increase was primarily due to a decrease in uncertain tax position reserves released in the 13-week period ended June 26, 2021 compared to the year-ago quarter.

The Company recorded income tax expense of $85,548 in the first half of 2021, compared to income tax expense of $29,866 in the first half of 2020. The effective tax rate was 13.7% in the first half of 2021, compared to 8.0% in the first half of 2020. The increase was primarily due to a decrease in uncertain tax position reserves released in the first half of 2021 compared to the first half of 2020.

8. Marketable Securities

The FASB ASC topic entitled Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The accounting guidance classifies the inputs used to measure fair value into the following hierarchy:

| Level 1 | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for the identical asset or liability

| Level 2 | Observable inputs for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability

| Level 3 | Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability

The Company endeavors to utilize the best available information in measuring fair value. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation is based on prices obtained from an independent pricing vendor using both market and income approaches. The primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, contractual cash flows, benchmark yields, and credit spreads.

The method described above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while the Company believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date.

Marketable securities classified as available-for-sale securities are summarized below:

|  | Available-For-Sale Securities as of June 26, 2021 |
|  | Fair Value Level |  | Amortized Cost |  |  | Gross Unrealized Gains |  |  | Gross Unrealized Losses |  |  | Fair Value |

The Company’s investment policy targets low risk investments with the objective of minimizing the potential risk of principal loss. The fair value of securities varies from period to period due to changes in interest rates, the performance of the underlying collateral, and the credit performance of the underlying issuer, among other factors.

Accrued interest receivable, which totaled $10,160 as of June 26, 2021, is excluded from both the fair value and amortized cost basis of available-for-sale securities and is included within Prepaid expenses and other current assets on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company writes off impaired accrued interest on a timely basis, generally within 30 days of the due date, by reversing interest income. No accrued interest was written off during the 26-week period ended June 26, 2021.

The Company recognizes impairments relating to credit losses of available-for-sale securities through an allowance for credit losses and Other income on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Impairment not relating to credit losses is recorded in Other comprehensive income on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method. Approximately 34% of securities in the Company’s portfolio were at an unrealized loss position as of June 26, 2021.

The following tables display additional information regarding gross unrealized losses and fair value by major security type for available-for-sale securities in an unrealized loss position as of June 26, 2021 and December 26, 2020.

As of June 26, 2021 and December 26, 2020, the Company had no t recognized an allowance for credit losses on any securities in an unrealized loss position.

12

The Company has no t recorded an allowance for credit losses and charge to Other income for the unrealized losses on agency, mortgage-backed, corporate, municipal, and other securities presented above because we do not consider the declines in fair value to have resulted from credit losses. We have not observed a significant deterioration in credit quality of these securities, which are highly rated with moderate to low credit risk. Declines in value are largely attributable to current global economic conditions. The securities continue to make timely principal and interest payments, and the fair values are expected to recover as they approach maturity. The Company does not intend to sell the securities, and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the securities, before the respective recoveries of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity.

The amortized cost and fair value of marketable securities at June 26, 2021, by maturity, are shown below.

10. Revenue

In order to further depict how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of our revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors, we disaggregate revenue (or “net sales”) by geographic region, major product category, and pattern of recognition.

Disaggregated revenue by geographic region (Americas, APAC, and EMEA) is presented in Note 4 – Segment Information. Note 4 also contains disaggregated revenue information of the six major product categories identified by the Company – fitness, outdoor, aviation, marine, consumer auto, and auto OEM.

13

A large majority of the Company’s sales are recognized on a point in time basis, usually once the product is shipped and title and risk of loss have transferred to the customer. Sales recognized over a period of time are primarily within the auto segment and relate to performance obligations that are satisfied over the life of the product or contractual service period. Revenue disaggregated by the timing of transfer of the goods or services is presented in the table below:

|  | 13-Weeks Ended |  |  | 26-Weeks Ended |
|  | June 26, 2021 |  |  | June 27, 2020 |  |  | June 26, 2021 |  |  | June 27, 2020 |
Point in time |  | $ | 1,274,569 |  |  | $ | 825,579 |  |  | $ | 2,297,346 |  |  | $ | 1,635,876 |
Over time |  |  | 52,336 |  |  |  | 44,288 |  |  |  | 101,886 |  |  |  | 90,099 |
Net sales |  | $ | 1,326,905 |  |  | $ | 869,867 |  |  | $ | 2,399,232 |  |  | $ | 1,725,975 |

Transaction price and costs associated with the Company’s unsatisfied performance obligations are reflected as deferred revenue and deferred costs, respectively, on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Such amounts are recognized ratably over the applicable service period or estimated useful life. Changes in deferred revenue and costs during the 26-week period ended June 26, 2021 are presented below:

|  | 26-Weeks Ended |
|  | June 26, 2021 |
|  | Deferred Revenue (1) |  |  | Deferred Costs (2) |
Balance, beginning of period |  | $ | 136,799 |  |  | $ | 36,655 |
Deferrals in period |  |  | 94,529 |  |  |  | 7,197 |
Recognition of deferrals in period |  |  | (101,886 | ) |  |  | (13,072 | )
Balance, end of period |  | $ | 129,442 |  |  | $ | 30,780 |

(1) Deferred revenue is comprised of both Deferred revenue and Noncurrent deferred revenue per the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets

(2) Deferred costs are comprised of both Deferred costs and Noncurrent deferred costs per the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets

Of the $101,886 of deferred revenue recognized in the 26-week period ended June 26, 2021, $50,481 was deferred as of the beginning of the period.

Approximately two-thirds of the $129,442 of deferred revenue at the end of the period, June 26, 2021, is recognized ratably over a period of three years or less.

Company Overview

The Company is a leading worldwide provider of wireless devices and applications that are designed for people who live an active lifestyle, many of which feature Global Positioning System (GPS) navigation. We are organized in the six operating segments of fitness, outdoor, aviation, marine, consumer auto, and auto OEM. The operating segments offer products through our network of subsidiary distributors and independent dealers and distributors, our own webshop, as well as through various auto, aviation, and marine original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). Each of the operating segments is managed separately.

Business Environment Update

The COVID-19 pandemic has created disruption and uncertainty in the global economy and has affected our business, suppliers, and customers. The pandemic has generally had an unfavorable impact on net sales and profitability of our aviation and auto segments, however, the impact has lessened during the first half of 2021. Conversely, we believe net sales and profitability of our fitness, outdoor, and marine segments have benefited from a shift in consumer behavior and demand toward the products these segments offer, which continued through the second quarter of 2021.

Our global supply chain is routinely subject to component shortages, increased lead times, cost fluctuations, and logistics constraints. These factors have been further amplified by the pandemic. While we have not yet experienced material impacts, we expect these supply chain challenges to continue through at least the end of calendar year 2021.

The current business environment may evolve in ways that could impact our operations and financial results. Further, the nature and degree of the effects of the pandemic and supply chain challenges over time remains uncertain. Refer to Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of this Quarterly Report for further discussion of the risks and uncertainties facing our Company.

Comparison of 13-Weeks ended June 26, 2021 and June 27, 2020

Net Sales

Net Sales |  | 13-Weeks Ended June 26, 2021 |  |  | Year-over-Year Change |  |  | 13-Weeks Ended June 27, 2020 |
Fitness |  | $ | 413,201 |  |  |  | 40 | % |  | $ | 294,642 |
Percentage of Total Net Sales |  |  | 31 | % |  |  |  |  |  | 34 | %
Outdoor |  |  | 323,405 |  |  |  | 57 | % |  |  | 206,200 |
Percentage of Total Net Sales |  |  | 24 | % |  |  |  |  |  | 24 | %
Aviation |  |  | 180,832 |  |  |  | 43 | % |  |  | 126,140 |
Percentage of Total Net Sales |  |  | 14 | % |  |  |  |  |  | 14 | %
Marine |  |  | 261,790 |  |  |  | 66 | % |  |  | 157,827 |
Percentage of Total Net Sales |  |  | 20 | % |  |  |  |  |  | 18 | %
Auto |  |  | 147,677 |  |  |  | 74 | % |  |  | 85,058 |
Percentage of Total Net Sales |  |  | 11 | % |  |  |  |  |  | 10 | %
Consumer Auto |  |  | 86,278 |  |  |  | 56 | % |  |  | 55,270 |
Percentage of Total Net Sales |  |  | 7 | % |  |  |  |  |  | 6 | %
Auto OEM |  |  | 61,399 |  |  |  | 106 | % |  |  | 29,788 |
Percentage of Total Net Sales |  |  | 5 | % |  |  |  |  |  | 4 | %
Total |  | $ | 1,326,905 |  |  |  | 53 | % |  | $ | 869,867 |

Net sales increased 53% for the 13-week period ended June 26, 2021 when compared to the year-ago quarter. Net sales of most segments were adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic in the prior year quarter, and therefore a portion of the year-over-year growth is attributable to the relatively low prior year comparable. We believe the fitness, outdoor, and marine segments have since benefited from a shift in consumer behavior and demand, and the generally unfavorable impact that the pandemic has had on the aviation and auto segments has lessened during the current period. Additionally, certain product lines have experienced continued strength in the current period.

The increase in fitness revenue was driven by sales growth in cycling and advanced wearables products. Outdoor revenue increased due to sales growth across all categories, led by strong demand for our adventure watches. The increase in aviation revenue was driven by contributions from both OEM and aftermarket product categories. Marine revenue increased due to growth across multiple product categories, led by strong demand for our chartplotters. The consumer auto revenue increase was driven by growth in specialty categories, while the auto OEM increase was due to sales growth in new OEM programs.

Total unit sales in the second quarter of 2021 increased to 4,303 when compared to total unit sales of 3,093 in the second quarter of 2020, which was a smaller increase than that of revenue primarily due to shifts in segment and product mix. Fitness was the largest portion of our revenue mix at 31% in the second quarter of 2021 compared to 34% in the second quarter of 2020.

Percentage of Total Net Sales |  |  | 59 | % |  |  |  |  |  | 59 | %

Gross profit dollars in the second quarter of 2021 increased 51%, primarily due to the increase in net sales compared to the year-ago quarter, as described above. Consolidated gross margin was relatively flat when compared to the year-ago quarter.

The fitness, outdoor, marine, and consumer auto gross margins were adversely impacted by higher freight costs, which were partially offset in the fitness and outdoor segments by lower costs of goods, and fitness further benefited from a favorable product mix. The auto OEM gross margin decrease was primarily attributable to product mix associated with growth in new auto OEM programs, which have lower gross margin. The auto OEM gross margin is generally expected to be lower than the prior year and current quarter through 2021 and beyond, as new auto OEM programs continue to increase as a percentage of product mix.

17

Selling, general and administrative expense increased 26% in absolute dollars and was 270 basis points lower as a percent of revenue compared to the year-ago quarter. The absolute dollar increase in the second quarter of 2021 was primarily attributable to increased personnel related expenses and information technology costs, and the decrease as a percent of revenue was primarily due to greater leverage of operating costs.

Research and Development Expense

Percentage of Total Net Sales |  |  | 15 | % |  |  |  |  |  | 19 | %

Research and development expense as a percent of revenue decreased 390 basis points when compared to the year-ago quarter and increased 21% in absolute dollars. The decrease as a percent of revenue was primarily due to the increase in sales, as described above, and greater leverage of expenses. The absolute dollar increase was primarily due to higher engineering personnel costs across all of our operating segments. The auto OEM increase in absolute dollars and as a percent of revenue was primarily attributable to higher engineering personnel costs related to investments in auto OEM programs and a lower proportion of such costs being contractually reimbursable. This trend of increased auto OEM research and development expense compared to the prior year is expected to continue through 2021 as we expect higher total costs and the majority of costs will not be contractually reimbursable.

Operating income increased 97% in absolute dollars and increased 630 basis points as a percent of revenue when compared to the year-ago quarter. This increase was due to revenue growth and lower operating expenses as a percent of revenue, as described above. Auto OEM experienced an operating loss in the current quarter, and we expect this trend to continue through 2021, primarily due to a lower gross margin and increased expense associated with certain programs, as described above.

The average return on cash and investments, including interest and capital gains/loss returns during the second quarter of 2021 was 0.9% compared to 1.6% during the same quarter of 2020. Interest income decreased primarily due to lower yields on fixed-income securities.

Foreign currency gains and losses for the Company are driven by movements of a number of currencies in relation to the U.S. Dollar. The Taiwan Dollar is the functional currency of Garmin Corporation, the Euro is the functional currency of several subsidiaries, and the U.S. Dollar is the functional currency of Garmin (Europe) Ltd., although some transactions and balances are denominated in British Pounds. Other notable currency exposures include the Australian Dollar, Chinese Yuan, and Japanese Yen. The majority of the Company’s consolidated foreign currency gain or loss is typically driven by the significant cash and marketable securities, receivables and payables held in a currency other than the functional currency at a given legal entity.

The $7.3 million currency loss recognized in the second quarter of 2021 was primarily due to the U.S. Dollar weakening against the Taiwan Dollar, partially offset by the U.S. Dollar weakening against the Euro and the British Pound Sterling, within the 13-week period ended June 26, 2021. During this period, the U.S. Dollar weakened 2.5% against the Taiwan Dollar, resulting in a loss of $9.5 million, while the U.S. Dollar weakened 1.2% against the Euro and 0.7% against the British Pound Sterling, resulting in gains of $1.2 million and $0.4 million, respectively. The remaining net currency gain of $0.6 million was related to the timing of transactions and impacts of other currencies, each of which was individually immaterial.

The $4.5 million currency loss recognized in the second quarter of 2020 was primarily due to the U.S. Dollar weakening against the Taiwan Dollar, partially offset by the U.S. Dollar weakening against the Australian Dollar, within the 13-week period ended June 27, 2020. During this period, the U.S. Dollar weakened 2.4% against the Taiwan Dollar, resulting in a loss of $10.8 million, while the U.S. Dollar weakened 13.6% against the Australian Dollar, resulting in a gain of $4.5 million. The remaining net currency gain of $1.8 million was related to the timing of transactions and impacts of other currencies, each of which was individually immaterial.

Income Tax Provision

The Company recorded income tax expense of $55.1 million in the 13-week period ended June 26, 2021, compared to income tax expense of $13.4 million in the 13-week period ended June 27, 2020. The effective tax rate was 14.8% in the second quarter of 2021, compared to 6.8% in the second quarter of 2020. The increase was primarily due to a decrease in uncertain tax position reserves released in the 13-week period ended June 26, 2021 compared to the year-ago quarter.

Net Income

As a result of the above, net income for the 13-week period ended June 26, 2021 was $317.0 million compared to $184.2 million for the 13-week period ended June 27, 2020, an increase of $132.8 million.

Net sales increased 39% for the 26-week period ended June 26, 2021 when compared to the year-ago period. Net sales of most segments were adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic for part of the prior year period, and therefore a portion of the year-over-year growth is attributable to the relatively low prior year comparable. We believe the fitness, outdoor, and marine segments have since benefited from a shift in consumer behavior and demand, and the generally unfavorable impact that the pandemic has had on the aviation and auto segments has lessened during the current period. Additionally, certain product lines have experienced continued strength in the current period.

The increase in fitness revenue was driven by sales growth in cycling and advanced wearables products. Outdoor revenue increased due to sales growth across all categories, led by strong demand for our adventure watches. The increase in aviation revenue was driven by sales growth in the OEM product category. Marine revenue increased due to growth across multiple product categories, led by strong demand for our chartplotters. The consumer auto revenue increase was driven by growth in specialty categories, while the auto OEM increase was due to sales growth in new OEM programs.

Total unit sales in the first half of 2021 increased to 7,763 when compared to total unit sales of 6,024 in the first half of 2020, which was a smaller increase than that of revenue primarily due to shifts in segment and product mix. Fitness was the largest portion of our revenue mix at 30% in the first half of 2021 compared to 30% in the first half of 2020.

Gross profit dollars in the first half of 2021 increased 39%, primarily due to the increase in net sales compared to the year-ago period, as described above. Consolidated gross margin was relatively flat when compared to the year-ago quarter.

The fitness, outdoor, and consumer auto gross margin increases of 330, 110, and 170 basis points, respectively, were primarily attributable to product mix, partially offset by higher freight costs. The auto OEM gross margin decrease of 1,430 basis points was primarily attributable to product mix associated with growth in new auto OEM programs. This auto OEM product mix and associated lower gross margin trend is generally expected to continue through 2021 and beyond.

Research and development expense as a percent of revenue decreased 230 basis points when compared to the year-ago quarter and increased 22% in absolute dollars. The decrease as a percent of revenue was primarily due to the increase in sales, as described above, and greater leverage of expenses. The absolute dollar increase was primarily due to higher engineering personnel costs across all of our operating segments. The auto OEM increase in absolute dollars and as a percent of revenue was primarily attributable to higher engineering personnel costs related to investments in auto OEM programs and a lower proportion of such costs being contractually reimbursable. This trend of increased auto OEM research and development expense compared to the prior year is expected to continue through 2021 as we expect higher total costs and the majority of costs will not be contractually reimbursable.

Operating income increased 70% in absolute dollars and increased 470 basis points as a percent of revenue when compared to the year-ago period. This increase was due to revenue growth and lower operating expenses as a percent of revenue, as described above. Auto OEM experienced an operating loss in the current quarter, and we expect this trend to continue through 2021, primarily due to a lower gross margin and increased expense associated with certain programs, as described above.

Other Income (Expense)

Other Income (Expense) |  | 26-Weeks Ended June 26, 2021 |  |  | 26-Weeks Ended June 27, 2020 |

Other Income |  |  | 2,679 |  |  |  | 6,789 |
Total |  | $ | 1,742 |  |  | $ | 9,354 |

The average return on cash and investments, including interest and capital gain/loss returns during the 26-week periods ended June 26, 2021 and June 27, 2020 was 1.0% and 1.7%, respectively. Interest income decreased primarily due to lower yields on fixed-income securities.

Foreign currency gains and losses for the Company are driven by movements of a number of currencies in relation to the U.S. Dollar. The Taiwan Dollar is the functional currency of Garmin Corporation, the Euro is the functional currency of several subsidiaries, and the U.S. Dollar is the functional currency of Garmin (Europe) Ltd., although some transactions and balances are denominated in British Pounds. Other notable currency exposures include the Australian Dollar, Chinese Yuan, and Japanese Yen. The majority of the Company’s consolidated foreign currency gain or loss is typically driven by the significant cash and marketable securities, receivables and payables held in a currency other than the functional currency at a given legal entity.

The $15.6 million currency loss recognized in the 26-week period ended June 26, 2021 was primarily due to the U.S. Dollar weakening against the Taiwan Dollar and strengthening against the Euro, partially offset by the U.S. Dollar weakening against the British Pound Sterling, within the 26-week period ended June 26, 2021. During this period, the U.S. Dollar weakened 0.8% against the Taiwan Dollar and strengthened 2.2% against the Euro, resulting in losses of $4.8 million and $9.8 million, respectively, while the U.S. Dollar weakened 2.4% against the British Pound Sterling resulting in a gain of $1.8 million. The remaining net currency loss of $2.8 million was related to the timing of transactions and impacts of other currencies, each of which was individually immaterial.

The $19.9 million currency loss recognized in the 26-week period ended June 27, 2020 was primarily due to the U.S. Dollar weakening against the Taiwan Dollar and strengthening against the British Pound Sterling and Australian Dollar, within the 26-week period ended June 27, 2020. During this period, the U.S. Dollar weakened 2.1% against the Taiwan Dollar, resulting in a loss of $8.7 million, while the U.S. Dollar strengthened 5.7% against the British Pound Sterling and 0.9% against the Australian Dollar, resulting in losses of $2.5 million and $0.5 million, respectively. The remaining net currency loss of $8.2 million was related to the timing of transactions and impacts of other currencies, each of which was individually immaterial.

Income Tax Provision

The Company recorded income tax expense of $85.5 million in the first half of 2021 compared to income tax expense of $29.9 million in the first half of 2020. The effective tax rate was 13.7% in the first half of 2021, compared to 8.0% in the first half of 2020. The increase was primarily due to a decrease in uncertain tax position reserves released in the first half of 2021 compared to the first half of 2020.

Net Income

As a result of the above, net income for the 26-week period ended June 26, 2021 was $537.0 million compared to $345.4 million for the 26-week period ended June 27, 2020, an increase of $191.6 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 26, 2021, we had approximately $3.2 billion of cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities. We primarily use cash flow from operations, and expect that future cash requirements may be used, to fund our capital expenditures, support our working capital requirements, pay dividends, and fund strategic acquisitions. We believe that our existing cash balances and cash flow from operations will be sufficient to meet our short- and long-term projected working capital needs, capital expenditures, and other cash requirements.

It is management’s goal to invest the on-hand cash in accordance with the investment policy, which has been approved by the Company’s Board of Directors. The investment policy’s primary purpose is to preserve capital, maintain an acceptable degree of liquidity, and maximize yield within the constraint of low credit risk. Garmin’s average interest rate returns on cash and investments during the first half of 2021 and 2020 were approximately 1.0% and 1.7%, respectively. The fair value of our securities varies from period to period due to changes in interest rates, in the performance of the underlying collateral, and in the credit performance of the underlying issuer, among other factors. See Note 8 for additional information regarding marketable securities.

The $172.9 million increase in cash provided by operating activities during the first half of 2021 compared to the first half of 2020 was due to an increase in net income of $191.7 million and an increase in other non-cash adjustments to net income of $33.7 million. These increases were partially offset by an increase in cash used in working capital of $52.5 million (which included an increase of $120.1 million in cash paid for inventory and a decrease of $74.2 million in net receipts of accounts receivable, partially offset by a decrease of $95.6 million net cash used in accounts payable, a decrease of $33.7 million in net cash used for income taxes, and a decrease of $12.5 million in net cash used in other activities).

The $313.0 million decrease in cash used in investing activities during the first half of 2021 compared to the first half of 2020 was primarily due to an increase in net purchases of marketable securities of $255.0 million, an increase in net purchases of property and equipment of $50.2 million, and an increase in cash payments for acquisitions of $8.0 million.

The $1.6 million increase in cash used in financing activities during the first half of 2021 compared to the first half of 2020 was due to an increase in dividend payments of $16.4 million and an increase in purchases of treasury stock related to equity awards of $5.7 million, partially offset by an increase in proceeds from the issuance of treasury stock of $20.5 million.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

General

Garmin’s discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon Garmin’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The presentation of these financial statements requires Garmin to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, Garmin evaluates its estimates, including those related to bad debts, inventories, investments, intangible assets, income taxes, warranty obligations, contingencies, customer sales programs and incentives, product returns, relative standalone selling prices, and progress toward completion of performance obligations in certain contracts with customers. Garmin bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

For a description of the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, refer to Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8 and “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” in Part II, Item 7 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 26, 2020.

There are numerous market risks that can affect our future business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part II, Item 7A, "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 26, 2020.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. The Company maintains a system of disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information, which is required to be timely disclosed, is accumulated and communicated to management in a timely fashion. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. As of June 26, 2021, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded as of June 26, 2021 that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the information relating to the Company, required to be disclosed in our Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting. There has been no change in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s fiscal quarter ended June 26, 2021 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Part II - Othe r Information

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

In the normal course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries are parties to various legal claims, actions, and complaints, including matters involving patent infringement, other intellectual property, product liability, customer claims and various other risks. It is not possible to predict with certainty whether or not the Company and its subsidiaries will ultimately be successful in any of these legal matters, or if not, what the impact might be. However, the Company’s management does not expect that the results in any of these legal proceedings will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows. For additional information, see Note 6 – Commitments and Contingencies in the above Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Part I, Item 3, “Legal Proceedings” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 26, 2020.

Item 1A. Ri sk Factors

There are many risks and uncertainties that can affect our future business, financial performance or share price. In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 26, 2020, as supplemented by the risk factor set forth below. These risks, however, are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties, including those not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial, also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.

The following is an amended and restated version of a risk factor included in Part II, Item 1A, "Risk Factors” of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Form 10-Q/A for the period ended March 27, 2021, and supplemental to the risk factors included in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 26, 2020:

Public health emergencies or outbreaks of epidemics, pandemics, or contagious diseases have had and will likely continue to have significant impacts on our business.

Widespread public health emergencies or outbreaks of epidemics, pandemics, or contagious diseases, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, have had, and will likely continue to have, significant impacts on our business. The COVID-19 pandemic continues to rapidly evolve, creating disruption and uncertainty around the world, which has resulted in, and we expect will continue to result in, a change in overall demand for certain of our products and other operational impacts. There are unknown factors, such as the duration and severity of the pandemic, evolving variants of the virus that causes COVID-19, the nature and length of actions taken by governments, businesses and individuals to contain or mitigate its impact, the severity and duration of the economic impact caused by the pandemic, the uncertainty surrounding the efficacy, distribution and uptake of vaccines, along with the effectiveness of our response, that may affect the magnitude of effects to our business operations, results of operations, and its ultimate impact on our financial condition.

Demand for certain of our products has been, and may continue to be, affected in several ways during the COVID-19 pandemic. Some consumers have been and may continue to be less able or less likely to purchase certain of our products due to economic hardships, governmental restrictions affecting them and the retail outlets that sell our products, voluntary behavior changes associated with public health guidance, the prioritization of other goods and services by online retailers that sell our products, restrictions on the ability of online retailers to ship products to certain areas, the cancellation of trade shows and other events that are otherwise important in the marketing and sale of our products, and the potential failure and closure of retail outlets and online retailers that sell our products. Certain of our sales and distribution offices have experienced and may again experience temporary closure due to governmental restrictions. Additional or prolonged closures of certain sales and distribution offices could affect our ability to market and distribute products to meet customer demand. The adverse impacts of the pandemic have created economic stress in the global marketplace, high levels of unemployment, loss of income and/or wealth for some individuals, and general economic uncertainty. These conditions have affected and are expected to continue to affect the willingness or ability of some customers to purchase certain of our products or those of original equipment manufacturers in which our products are installed. We have also experienced increased demand for certain of our products during the COVID-19 pandemic as consumer behavior and demand shifted toward products offered by our fitness, outdoor, and marine segments. It is not yet known whether these behaviors and demand will persist, and there could be a decline in the demand for certain of these products as the overall pandemic situation improves.

Our supply chain has been and may continue to be adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. We have experienced delays in procuring and may be unable to procure certain components from our suppliers, and the cost of procuring certain components has increased and could continue to increase. We have faced logistics constraints, the scope and severity of which may intensify. Reduced demand for certain of our products has resulted in, and may continue to result in, reduced utilization of certain of our manufacturing facilities and higher per-unit costs for certain products. Certain of our manufacturing facilities may also experience inopportune temporary closures or reduced hours, which could adversely affect the costs incurred to produce our products and our ability to meet demand.

The COVID-19 pandemic has had and will continue to have several other operational impacts on our business, which will or may include employees working remotely, temporarily ceasing operations in some offices due to government restrictions, business travel restrictions, and the cancellation of events that are otherwise important in the development, marketing and sale of our products. These changes in our business operations may result in reduced efficiency and lower productivity. We have incurred and are expected to continue to incur increased costs as we provide additional benefits to assist our employees during the pandemic and provide a safe and healthy workplace for employees who continue or begin to return to work in our facilities. Similar operational and financial hardships on our business partners may result in aged or uncollectable receivables, and the reduced demand for certain of our products could result in obsolescence of certain inventory. If the economy experiences a sustained downturn of significant proportion that impacts portions of our business, we may also need to incur the costs and organizational impacts of personnel restructuring.

Additional risks and impacts including gross margin fluctuation, foreign currency fluctuations, successful continued product development, impacts to our key personnel, and dependencies on third party suppliers, may be heightened as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and evolving variants of the virus that causes COVID-19. There are further unknown risks and impacts due to the uncertainty and rapidly evolving nature of the pandemic including, but not limited to, uncertainty around the evolution of the pandemic, the unprecedented imposition of preventative measures by governments that impact the economy and normal operations of a business and the timing and manner of relaxation of those measures. Potential future health emergencies may present risks and impacts similar to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. If we are unable to manage these risks and uncertainties, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be materially impacted.
