NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
1 BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein are unaudited. In the opinion of management, these statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring items) necessary to present fairly the financial position of Johnson Outdoors Inc. and subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) as of July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021, and their results of operations for the three and nine month periods then ended and cash flows for the nine month periods then ended. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 1, 2021 which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 10, 2021.
Due to seasonal variations and other factors, some of which are described herein, including related to the ongoing coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak and resulting pandemic and the continued disruption to the global supply chain and logistics infrastructure, the results of operations for the three and nine months ended July 1, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the Company’s full 2022 fiscal year. See "Coronavirus (COVID-19)" below and “Seasonality” and "Coronavirus (COVID-19)" in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included elsewhere herein for additional information.
The Company considers all short-term investments in interest-bearing accounts and all securities and other instruments with an original maturity of three months or less, to be equivalent to cash. Cash equivalents are stated at cost which approximates market value.
All monetary amounts, other than share and per share amounts, are stated in thousands.
Coronavirus (COVID-19)
In March 2020, the World Health Organization recognized the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak as a global pandemic. In response to the COVID-19 outbreak, the governments of many countries, states, cities and other geographic regions imposed varying degrees of restrictions on social and commercial activity, including travel restrictions, quarantine guidelines, and related actions. These actions promoted social distancing, and subsequently resulted in adopting programs and taking actions to encourage and promote vaccination and implementing other similar programs all in an effort to slow the spread of the virus. These measures have had significant adverse impacts upon many sectors of the economy, including manufacturing and retail commerce.
While government mandates eased in the latter half of fiscal 2020, these mandates continued to emphasize social distancing measures to the general public. As a result, because we sell products that are used in a safe and socially distant manner in the great outdoors, the COVID-19 pandemic has had an overall favorable effect on our sales levels and the demand for our products starting at the end of our fiscal 2020 and continuing into fiscal 2022. Nonetheless, the continued evolution of the pandemic has resulted in disruptions to the global supply chain and the logistics infrastructure (including with respect to the sourcing, timing, availability and cost of raw materials and components that are necessary to manufacture our products). The lingering impact of these disruptions is not fully known as they, along with certain inflationary pressures in the economy, have resulted in increased costs associated with building certain items of our inventory, and may result in future economic slowdowns and ultimately lower demand for discretionary goods like our outdoor recreational products. Furthermore, the continued impact of the pandemic on the global supply chain (including with respect to impacting the sourcing, timing, availability and cost of raw materials and components that are necessary to manufacture our products) is beyond our control and remains highly uncertain and cannot be predicted at his time.
2 ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
Accounts receivable are stated net of allowances for doubtful accounts of $1,208, $2,494 and $1,446 as of July 1, 2022, October 1, 2021 and July 2, 2021, respectively. The increase in net accounts receivable to $103,244 as of July 1, 2022 from $71,321 as of October 1, 2021 is attributable to the seasonal nature of the Company’s business. The determination of the allowance for doubtful accounts is based on a combination of factors. In circumstances where specific collection concerns about a receivable exist, a reserve is established to value the affected account receivable at an amount the Company believes will be collected. For all other customers, the Company recognizes allowances for doubtful accounts based on historical experience of bad debts as a percent of accounts receivable outstanding for each

business segment. Uncollectible accounts are written off against the allowance for doubtful accounts after collection efforts have been exhausted. The Company typically does not require collateral on its accounts receivable.
3 EARNINGS PER SHARE (“EPS”)
Net income or loss per share of Class A common stock and Class B common stock is computed using the two-class method. Grants of restricted stock which receive non-forfeitable dividends are classified as participating securities and are required to be included as part of the basic weighted average share calculation under the two-class method.
Holders of Class A common stock are entitled to cash dividends equal to 110% of all dividends declared and paid on each share of Class B common stock. The Company grants shares of unvested restricted stock in the form of Class A shares, which carry the same distribution rights as the Class A common stock described above. As such, the undistributed earnings for each period are allocated to each class of common stock based on the proportionate share of the amount of cash dividends that each such class is entitled to receive.
Basic EPS
Basic net income or loss per share is computed by dividing net income or loss allocated to Class A common stock and Class B common stock by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock outstanding, respectively. In periods with cumulative year to date net income and undistributed income, the undistributed income for each period is allocated to each class of common stock based on the proportionate share of the amount of cash dividends that each such class is entitled to receive. In periods where there is a cumulative year to date net loss or no undistributed income because distributions through dividends exceed net income, Class B shares are treated as anti-dilutive and, therefore, net losses are allocated equally on a per share basis among all participating securities.
For the three and nine month periods ended July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021, basic income per share for the Class A and Class B shares has been presented using the two class method and reflects the allocation of undistributed income described above.
Diluted EPS
Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing allocated net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, adjusted for the effect of dilutive stock options, restricted stock units (“stock units” or “units”) and non-vested restricted stock. Anti-dilutive stock options, units and non-vested stock are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS. The computation of diluted net income per share of Class A common stock assumes that Class B common stock is converted into Class A common stock. Therefore, diluted net income per share is the same for both Class A and Class B common shares. In periods where the Company reports a net loss, the effect of anti-dilutive stock options and units is excluded and diluted loss per share is equal to basic loss per share for both classes of stock.
For the three and nine month periods ended July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021, diluted net income per share reflects the effect of dilutive stock units and assumes the conversion of Class B common stock into Class A common stock.
Shares of non-vested stock that could potentially dilute earnings per share in the future which were not included in the fully diluted computation because they would have been anti-dilutive totaled 38,353 and 40,743 for the Third months ended July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021, respectively, and 38,477 and 40,471 for the nine months ended July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021, respectively. Stock units that could potentially dilute earnings per share in the future and which were not included in the fully diluted computation because they would have been anti-dilutive were 37,152 and 20,277 for the Third month periods ended July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021, respectively, and 35,413 and 27,411 for the nine month periods ended July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021, respectively.
Dividends per share
Dividends per share for the three and nine month periods ended July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021 were as follows:

4 STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION AND STOCK OWNERSHIP PLANS
The Company’s current stock ownership plans allow for issuance of stock options to acquire shares of Class A common stock by key executives and non-employee directors. Current plans also allow for issuance of shares of restricted stock, restricted stock units or stock appreciation rights in lieu of stock options.
Under the Company’s 2012 Non-Employee Director Stock Ownership Plan and the 2020 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the only plans where shares currently remain available for future equity incentive awards) there were a total of 466,598 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock available for future grant to non-employee directors and key executives at July 1, 2022. Share awards previously made under the Company's 2010 Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan, which no longer allows for additional share grants, also remain outstanding.
Non-vested Stock
All shares of non-vested restricted stock awarded by the Company have been granted in the form of shares of Class A common stock at their fair market value on the date of grant and vest within one year from the date of grant for stock granted to directors and four years from the date of grant for stock granted to officers and employees. The fair value at date of grant is based on the number of shares granted and the average of the Company’s high and low Class A common stock price on the date of grant or, if the Company’s Class A shares did not trade on the date of grant, the average of the Company’s high and low Class A common stock price on the last preceding date on which the Company’s Class A shares traded.
A summary of non-vested stock activity for the nine months ended July 1, 2022 related to the Company’s stock ownership plans is as follows:

| Shares | Weighted Average Grant Price
Non-vested stock at October 1, 2021 | 37,591 |  | $ | 80.86 |
Non-vested stock grants | 14,958 |  | 90.58 |
Restricted stock vested | (11,326) |  | 95.33 |
Forfeitures | (2,040) |  | 73.52 |
Non-vested stock at July 1, 2022 | 39,183 |  | 80.76 |

Non-vested stock grantees may elect to reimburse the Company for withholding taxes due as a result of the vesting of shares by tendering a portion of the vested shares back to the Company. Shares tendered back to the Company were 1,778 and 2,341 during the nine month periods ended July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021, respectively.
Stock compensation expense, net of forfeitures, related to non-vested stock was $335 and $286 for the three month periods ended July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021, respectively, and $896 and $862 for the nine month periods ended July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021, respectively. Unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock as of July 1, 2022 was $1,737, which amount will be amortized to expense through February 2026 or adjusted for changes in future estimated or actual forfeitures.
The fair value of restricted stock vested during the nine month periods ended July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021 was $1,002 and $1,950, respectively.
Restricted Stock Units
- 9 -

Index | JOHNSON OUTDOORS INC. |

All restricted stock units (RSUs) awarded by the Company have been granted in the form of units payable in shares of Class A common stock upon vesting. The units are valued at the fair market value of a share of Class A common stock on the date of grant and vest within one year from the date of grant for RSUs granted to directors and three years from the date of grant for RSUs granted to employees. The fair value at the date of grant is based on the number of units granted and the average of the Company’s high and low Class A common stock trading price on the date of grant or, if the Company’s Class A shares did not trade on the date of grant, the average of the Company’s high and low Class A common stock trading price on the last preceding date on which the Company’s Class A shares traded.
A summary of RSU activity for the nine months ended July 1, 2022 follows:

| Number of RSUs | Weighted Average Grant Price
RSUs at October 1, 2021 | 69,768 |  | $ | 73.60 |
RSUs granted | 19,758 |  | 101.22 |
RSUs vested | (22,192) |  | 71.42 |
RSU's forfeited | (1,340) |  | 74.62 |
RSUs at July 1, 2022 | 65,994 |  | 82.58 |

Stock compensation expense, net of forfeitures, related to RSUs was $636 and $735 for the three month periods ended July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021, respectively, and $1,961 and $1,678 for the nine month periods ended July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021, respectively. Unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested RSUs as of July 1, 2022 was $2,746, which amount will be amortized to expense through September 2024 or adjusted for changes in future estimated or actual forfeitures.
RSU grantees may elect to reimburse the Company for withholding taxes due as a result of the vesting of units and issuance of unrestricted shares of Class A common stock by tendering a portion of such unrestricted shares back to the Company. Shares tendered back to the Company for this purpose were 3,311 and 3,320 during the nine month periods ended July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021, respectively.
The fair value of restricted stock units recognized as a tax deduction during the nine month periods ended July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021 was $3,240 and $3,353, respectively.
Compensation expense related to units earned by employees (as opposed to grants to outside directors) is based upon the attainment of certain Company financial goals related to cumulative net sales and cumulative operating profit over a three-year performance period. Awards are only paid if at least 80% of the target levels are met and maximum payouts are made if 120% or more of target levels are achieved. The payouts for achievement at the threshold levels of performance are equal to 50% of the target award amount. The payouts for achievement at maximum levels of performance are equal to 150% of the target award amount. To the extent earned, awards are issued in shares of Company Class A common stock after the end of the three-year performance period.
Employees’ Stock Purchase Plan
The Company’s shareholders have adopted the Johnson Outdoors Inc. 2009 Employees’ Stock Purchase Plan, which was most recently amended on March 2, 2017, and which provides for the issuance of shares of Class A common stock at a purchase price of not less than 85% of the fair market value of such shares on the date of grant or on the date of purchase, whichever is lower.
During the Third month period ended July 1, 2022, the Company issued 5,112 shares of Class A common stock and recognized $90 of expense in connection with the Employees' Stock Purchase Plan. During the nine month period ended July 1, 2022, the Company issued 5,112 shares of Class A common stock and recognized $289 of expense in connection with the Employees' Stock Purchase Plan. During the Third month period ended July 2, 2021, the Company issued 0 shares of Class A common stock and recognized $31 of expense in connection with the Plan. During the nine month period ended July 2, 2021, the Company issued 0 shares of Class A common stock and recognized $31 of expense in connection with the Plan.

5 PENSION PLANS
The Company has non-contributory defined benefit pension plans covering certain of its U.S. employees. Retirement benefits are generally provided based on the employees’ years of service and average earnings. Normal retirement age is 65, with provisions for earlier retirement.
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company terminated its Johnson Outdoors Inc. Mankato Operations Pension Plan and Old Town Canoe Company Pension Plan (collectively, "the Terminated Plans"), both of which were frozen defined benefit pension plans at the time of termination. In connection with the plan terminations, the Company settled all future obligations under the Terminated Plans through a combination of lump-sum payments to eligible participants who elected to receive them, and the transfer of any remaining benefit obligations under the Terminated Plans to a third-party insurance company under a group annuity contract.
The Company still maintains the Johnson Outdoors Inc. Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan ("SERP"), and all future benefit payments to participants under this plan are made from the Company's general assets.
The Company made contributions of $25 and $42 to its pension plans for the three months ended July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021, respectively, and contributions of $74 and $130 for the nine months ended July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021, respectively.
The components of net periodic benefit cost related to Company sponsored defined benefit plans for the three and nine month periods ended July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021 were as follows:

| Three Months Ended | Nine Months Ended
| July 1, 2022 | July 2, 2021 | July 1, 2022 | July 2, 2021

Net periodic benefit cost | $ | (10) |  | $ | 320 |  | $ | 47 |  | $ | 734 |

6 INCOME TAXES
For the three and nine months ended July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021, the Company’s earnings before income taxes, income tax expense and effective income tax rate were as follows:

| Three Months Ended | Nine Months Ended
(thousands, except tax rate data) | July 1, 2022 | July 2, 2021 | July 1, 2022 | July 2, 2021
Profit before income taxes | $ | 19,244 |  | $ | 39,074 |  | $ | 47,043 |  | $ | 102,395 |
Income tax expense | 5,162 |  | 10,300 |  | 12,205 |  | 25,940 |
Effective income tax rate | 26.8 | % | 26.4 | % | 25.9 | % | 25.3 | %

The effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended July 1, 2022 and the prior year periods were relatively consistent with no primary factors materially impacting the rate.
The impact of the Company’s operations in jurisdictions where a valuation allowance is assessed is removed from the overall effective tax rate methodology and recorded directly based on year to date results for the year for which no tax expense or benefit can be recognized. The significant tax jurisdictions that have a valuation allowance for the periods ended July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021 were:

The Company regularly assesses the adequacy of its provisions for income tax contingencies in accordance with the applicable authoritative guidance on accounting for income taxes. As a result, the Company may adjust the reserves for unrecognized tax benefits due to the impact of changes in its assumptions or as a result of new facts and developments, such as changes to interpretations of relevant tax law, assessments from taxing authorities, settlements with taxing authorities and lapses of statutes of limitation. The Company’s 2022 fiscal year tax expense is anticipated to be unchanged related to uncertain income tax positions.
In accordance with its accounting policy, the Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized benefits as a component of income tax expense. The Company is projecting accrued interest of $100 related to uncertain income tax positions for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2022.
The Company files income tax returns, including returns for its subsidiaries, with federal, state, local and foreign taxing jurisdictions. As of the date of this report, the following tax years remain open to examination by the respective significant tax jurisdictions:

The Company evaluates the carrying value of goodwill for a reporting unit on an annual basis or more frequently when events and circumstances warrant such an evaluation. In conducting this analysis, the Company uses the income approach to compare the reporting unit's carrying value to its indicated fair value. Fair value is determined primarily by using a discounted cash flow methodology that requires considerable management judgment and long-term assumptions and is considered a Level 3 (unobservable) fair value determination in the fair value hierarchy (see Note 13) below.
9 WARRANTIES
The Company provides warranties on certain of its products as they are sold. The following table summarizes the Company’s warranty activity for the nine months ended July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021.

10 CONTINGENCIES
The Company is subject to various legal actions and proceedings in the normal course of business, including those related to commercial disputes, product liability, intellectual property and regulatory matters. The Company is insured against loss for certain of these matters. Although litigation is subject to many uncertainties and the ultimate exposure with respect to these matters cannot be ascertained, management does not believe the final outcome of any pending litigation will have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations, liquidity or cash flows of the Company.
11 INDEBTEDNESS
The Company had no debt outstanding at July 1, 2022, October 1, 2021, or July 2, 2021.
Revolvers
The Company and certain of its subsidiaries have entered into an unsecured credit facility with PNC Bank National Association and Associated Bank, N.A. ("the Lending Group"). This credit facility consists of a $75 million Revolving Credit Facility among the Company, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries, PNC Bank National Association, as lender and as administrative agent, and the other lender named therein (as amended, the “Credit Agreement” or “Revolver”). The Revolver provides for borrowing of up to an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $75,000 with a $50,000 accordion feature that gives the Company the option to increase the maximum financing availability (i.e., an aggregate borrowing amount of $125,000) subject to the conditions of the Credit Agreement and subject to the approval of the lenders. On July 15, 2021, the Company entered into a First Amendment to this credit facility that extended its expiration date from November 15, 2022, to July 15, 2026. Other key provisions of the credit facility remained as outlined herein and the description herein is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the original Debt Agreement (a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 99.1 to the current report on Form 8-K dated and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 20, 2017) and the Amendment, (a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the current report on Form 8-K dated and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 16, 2021).
The interest rate on the Revolver is based on LIBOR plus an applicable margin, which margin resets each quarter. The applicable margin ranges from 1.00% to 1.75% and is dependent on the Company’s leverage ratio for the trailing twelve month period. The interest rates on the Revolver at both July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021 were approximately 2.8% and 1.1%, respectively.
The Credit Agreement restricts the Company's ability to incur additional debt, includes maximum leverage ratio and minimum interest coverage ratio covenants and is unsecured.
Other Borrowings
- 13 -

Index | JOHNSON OUTDOORS INC. |

The Company had no unsecured revolving credit facilities at its foreign subsidiaries as of July 1, 2022 or July 2, 2021. The Company utilizes letters of credit primarily as security for the payment of future claims under its workers’ compensation insurance, which totaled approximately $173 and $181 as of July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021, respectively.
12 DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
The following disclosures describe the Company’s objectives in using derivative instruments, the business purpose or context for using derivative instruments, and how the Company believes the use of derivative instruments helps achieve the stated objectives. In addition, the following disclosures describe the effects of the Company’s use of derivative instruments and hedging activities on its financial statements.
Foreign Exchange Risk
The Company has significant foreign operations, for which the functional currencies are denominated primarily in euros, Swiss francs, Hong Kong dollars and Canadian dollars. As the values of the currencies of the foreign countries in which the Company has operations increase or decrease relative to the U.S. dollar, the sales, expenses, profits, losses, assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign operations, as reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements, increase or decrease, accordingly. Approximately 13% of the Company’s revenues for the nine month period ended July 1, 2022 were denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Approximately 4% were denominated in euros, approximately 7% were denominated in Canadian dollars and approximately 1% were denominated in Hong Kong dollars, with the remaining revenues denominated in various other foreign currencies. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates can cause the Company to experience unexpected financial losses or cash flow needs.
The Company may mitigate a portion of the fluctuations in certain foreign currencies through the use of foreign currency forward contracts. Foreign currency forward contracts enable the Company to lock in the foreign currency exchange rate to be paid or received for a fixed amount of currency at a specified date in the future. The Company may use such foreign currency forward contracts to mitigate the risk associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates on financial instruments and known commitments, including commitments for inventory purchases, denominated in foreign currencies. As of July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021, the Company held no foreign currency forward contracts.
13 FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. A fair value hierarchy has been established based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable.
•Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. These are typically obtained from real-time quotes for transactions in active exchange markets involving identical assets or liabilities.
•Level 2 - Inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, which are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These are typically obtained from readily-available pricing sources for comparable instruments.
•Level 3 - Unobservable inputs, where there is little or no market activity for the asset or liability. These inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions of the data that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, based on the best information available in the circumstances.
The carrying amounts of cash, cash equivalents, short term investments, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximated their fair values at July 1, 2022, October 1, 2021 and July 2, 2021 due to the short term maturities of these instruments. When indicators of impairment are present, the Company may be required to value certain long-lived assets such as property, plant, and equipment, and other intangibles at their fair value.
Valuation Techniques
Rabbi Trust Assets
- 14 -

Index | JOHNSON OUTDOORS INC. |

Rabbi trust assets are classified as trading securities and are comprised of marketable debt and equity securities that are marked to fair value based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets. The rabbi trust assets are used to fund amounts the Company owes to certain officers and other employees under the Company’s non-qualified deferred compensation plan. These assets are included in "Other assets" in the accompanying Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, and the mark to market adjustments on the assets are recorded in “Other income, net” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The offsetting deferred compensation liability is also reported at fair value as "Deferred compensation liability" in the Company's accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Changes in the liability are recorded in "Administrative management, finance and information systems" expense in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The following table summarizes the Company’s financial assets measured at fair value as of July 1, 2022:

| Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | Total
Assets: |  |  |  |
Rabbi trust assets | $ | 24,238 |  | $ | — |  | $ | — |  | $ | 24,238 |

The following table summarizes the Company’s financial assets measured at fair value as of October 1, 2021:

Assets: |  |  |  |
Rabbi trust assets | $ | 27,851 |  | $ | — |  | $ | — |  | $ | 27,851 |

The following table summarizes the Company’s financial assets measured at fair value as of July 2, 2021:

| Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | Total
Assets: |  |  |  |
Rabbi trust assets | $ | 27,879 |  | $ | — |  | $ | — |  | $ | 27,879 |

The effect of changes in the fair value of financial instruments on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and nine month periods ended July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021 was:

|  | Three Months Ended | Nine months ended
| Location of expense (income) recognized in Statement of Operations | July 1, 2022 | July 2, 2021 | July 1, 2022 | July 2, 2021
Rabbi trust assets | Other expense (income), net | $ | 3,851 |  | $ | (1,351) |  | $ | 4,900 |  | $ | (5,151) |

There were no assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis in periods subsequent to their initial recognition for either of the nine month periods ended July 1, 2022 or July 2, 2021.
14 NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Recently adopted accounting pronouncements
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326)” and also issued subsequent amendments to the initial guidance under ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04 and ASU 2019-05 (collectively Topic 326). Topic 326 requires the measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held at amortized cost. This replaces the existing incurred loss model with an expected loss model and requires the use of forward-looking information to calculate credit loss estimates. This guidance was effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal year 2021, and must be adopted by applying a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings. The Company adopted the provisions of this ASU at the beginning of the first quarter of fiscal 2021, however the ASU did
- 15 -

Index | JOHNSON OUTDOORS INC. |

not have a significant impact on its financial statements, and therefore no adjustment to retained earnings was necessary.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14, Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans (Topic 715), which modifies the disclosure requirements for employers that sponsor defined pension or postretirement plans. The amendments in this guidance are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the provisions of this ASU in fiscal 2021, however, the ASU did not have a significant impact on its disclosures.
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740)—Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. ASU 2019-12 is intended to simplify accounting for income taxes. It removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. ASU 2019-12 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the provisions of this ASU in the first quarter of fiscal 2022, however, the ASU did not have a significant impact on its financial statements.
Recently issued accounting pronouncements
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). ASU 2020-04 is intended to provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by the discontinuation of the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or by another reference rate expected to be discontinued. The amendments in this guidance were effective beginning on March 12, 2020, and the Company may elect to apply the amendments prospectively through December 31, 2022. The Company does not expect this guidance to have a significant impact on its financial statements and disclosures.
15 REVENUES
Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with our customer are satisfied; generally this occurs with the transfer of control of our goods at a point in time based on shipping terms and transfer of title. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring goods. The amount of consideration received can vary, primarily because of customer incentive or rebate arrangements. The Company estimates variable consideration based on the expected value of total consideration to which customers are likely to be entitled based on historical experience and projected market expectations. Included in the estimate is an assessment as to whether any variable consideration is constrained. Revenue estimates are adjusted at the earlier of a change in the expected value of consideration or when the consideration becomes fixed. For all contracts with customers, the Company has not adjusted the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component as the period between the transfer of the promised goods and the customer's payment is expected to be one year or less. Sales are made on normal and customary short-term credit terms, generally ranging from 30 to 90 days, or upon delivery of point of sale transactions. Sales, value add, and other taxes we collect concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue.
The Company enters into contractual arrangements with customers in the form of individual customer orders which specify the goods, quantity, pricing, and associated order terms. The Company does not have contracts which are satisfied over time. Due to the nature of these contracts, no significant judgment exists in relation to the identification of the customer contract, satisfaction of the performance obligation, or transaction price. The Company expenses incremental costs of obtaining a contract due to the short-term nature of the contracts.
Estimated costs of returns, allowances and discounts, based on historic experience, are accrued as a reduction to sales when revenue is recognized. The Company provides customers the right to return eligible products under certain circumstances. At July 1, 2022, the right to returns asset was $765 and the accrued returns liability was $2,226. At July 2, 2021, the right to returns asset was $1,105 and the accrued returns liability was $3,043. The Company also offers assurance-type warranties relating to its products sold to end customers that continue to be accounted for under ASC 460 Guarantees.
The Company generally accounts for shipping and handling activities as a fulfillment activity, consistent with the timing of revenue recognition; that is, when a customer takes control of the transferred goods. In the event that a customer were to take control of a product upon or after shipment, the Company has made an accounting policy election to treat such shipping and handling activities as a fulfillment cost. Shipping and handling fees billed to
- 16 -

Index | JOHNSON OUTDOORS INC. |

customers are included in "Net Sales," and shipping and handling costs are recognized within "Marketing and selling expenses" in the same period the related revenue is recognized.
The Company has a wide variety of seasonal, outdoor recreation products used primarily for fishing from a boat, diving, paddling, hiking and camping, that are sold to a variety of customers in multiple end markets. Nonetheless, the revenue recognition policies are similar among all the various products sold by the Company.
See Note 16 for required disclosures of disaggregated revenue.
16 SEGMENTS OF BUSINESS
The Company conducts its worldwide operations through separate business segments, each of which represents major product lines. Operations are conducted in the United States and various foreign countries, primarily in Europe, Canada and the Pacific Basin. During the three and nine month periods ended July 1, 2022, combined net sales to one customer of the Company's Fishing, Camping and Watercraft Recreation segments represented approximately $20,607 and $69,528, respectively, of the Company's consolidated revenues. During the three and nine month periods ended July 2, 2021, combined net sales to one customer of the Company's Fishing, Camping and Watercraft Recreation segments represented approximately $25,138 and $88,649, respectively, of the Company's consolidated revenues.
Net sales and operating profit include both sales to customers, as reported in the Company’s accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, and interunit transfers, which are priced to recover cost plus an appropriate profit margin. Total assets represent assets that are used in the Company’s operations in each business segment at the end of the periods presented.

18 LEASES
The Company leases certain facilities and machinery and equipment under long-term, non-cancelable operating leases. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception.
As of July 1, 2022, the Company had approximately 200 leases, with remaining terms ranging from less than one year to 17 years. Some of the leases contain variable payment terms, such as payments based on fluctuations in the Consumer Price Index (CPI). Some leases also contain options to extend or terminate the lease. To the extent the Company is reasonably certain to exercise these options, they have been considered in the calculation of the right-of-use ("ROU") assets and lease liabilities. Under current lease agreements, there are no residual value guarantees or restrictive lease covenants. In calculating the ROU assets and lease liabilities, several assumptions and judgments were made by the Company, including whether a contract is or contains a lease under the applicable definition, and the determination of the discount rate, which is assumed to be the incremental borrowing rate. The incremental borrowing rate is derived from information available to the Company at the lease commencement date based on lease length and location.
The components of lease expense recognized in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and nine months ended July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021 were as follows:

| Three months ended | Nine months ended
| July 1, 2022 | July 2, 2021 | July 1, 2022 | July 2, 2021
Lease Cost |  |  |  |
Operating lease costs | $ | 2,212 |  | $ | 2,107 |  | $ | 6,430 |  | $ | 6,184 |
Short-term lease costs | 542 |  | 403 |  | 1,501 |  | 1,206 |
Variable lease costs | 43 |  | 46 |  | 131 |  | 138 |
Total lease cost | $ | 2,797 |  | $ | 2,556 |  | $ | 8,062 |  | $ | 7,528 |

Included in the amounts in the table above were rent expense to related parties of $314 and $895 for the three and nine months ended July 1, 2022, respectively, and $262 and $778 for the three and nine months ended July 2, 2021, respectively.
As of July 1, 2022, the Company did not have any finance leases or sublease agreements. Additionally, the Company does not have any leases in which it is the lessor. While the Company extended or renewed various existing leases during the quarter, there were no significant new leases entered into during the quarter ended July 1, 2022. Supplemental balance sheet, cash flow, and other information related to operating leases was as follows:

During the second quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company amended its agreement with the landlord on an existing leased facility. During the third quarter of fiscal 2022, the Company took occupancy of part of the space, and began making pro-rated payments under the amended agreement, which are included in the amounts above. The Company expects to occupy the remaining space in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, and total estimated rental payments, not included in the amounts above, will be approximately $8 million over the course of the lease as amended, through June 2039.

Coronavirus (COVID-19)
- 22 -

Index | JOHNSON OUTDOORS INC. |

The COVID-19 pandemic drove consumer desire to engage in socially distant and safe activities outdoors. As a result, increased participation in fishing, camping, watercraft recreation also increased demand for our products across Company segments beginning in fiscal 2020, and continuing into the first three quarters of fiscal 2022. As global travel restrictions also eased, we experienced increased participation and resulting increased product demand in the Diving segment beginning in fiscal 2021 and continuing into the first three quarters of fiscal 2022.
In addition to this increase in demand for Company products, COVID-19 and the resulting macroeconomic dynamics have also caused widely-documented supply chain and logistics disruptions across industries. Specifically, the adverse supply chain and logistics constraints and disruptions have impacted the timing, sourcing, availability and cost of certain raw materials and components that are necessary to manufacture our outdoor recreation products, especially in our fishing segment due to the electronic components used in those products. Because certain electronic components that are necessary for manufacturing our higher volume products in that segment have been the most impacted by the supply chain and logistics disruptions, there has been limited availability of those materials and components, as well as increased pricing on such components. The Company has attempted to mitigate these disruptions by purchasing significantly higher levels of certain raw material and component inventory as they have been available, in many cases at higher price points than what was historically paid, to enable the Company to complete finished product orders as soon as the missing raw material and component inventory items become available. Nonetheless, continuing shortages have impacted the fishing segment’s ability to complete products for shipping, which has ultimately resulted in decreased sales volumes in the fishing segment over the same periods in the prior year, despite continued strong demand for the products, as evidenced by outstanding orders.
Additionally, the Company’s buying actions have subsequently resulted in decreased margins and the Company carrying significantly higher levels of inventory for a number of its materials, components and products at the end of each of the first three fiscal quarters of 2022. Though the Company continues to believe the inventory that it has built and which exists on its balance sheet is useable and saleable in the ordinary course of business, it continues to monitor the current reserve balances for obsolete and excess inventory. However, any changes in consumer demand for the Company's outdoor recreation products, changes in economic conditions, or changes in customer inventory levels or competitive conditions could have a favorable or unfavorable effect on required reserve balances in the future.
Because the Company expects that these same supply chain and logistics disruptions will continue through the end of fiscal 2022, the Company remains focused on evaluating and pursuing additional options (beyond building inventory) to meet the continued strong demand for its products. Nonetheless, these supply chain and logistics disruptions remain fluid and will likely adversely impact the cost of goods sold for future sales of product for the remainder of fiscal 2022 and/or adversely impact the Company’s ability to fill all demand for its products, especially given the volatility and changing circumstances brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on the global supply chain and logistics infrastructure.
Highlights
Net sales of $203,819 for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 decreased $9,749, or 5%, from the same period in the prior year. While consumer and customer demand for the Company's products remains solid as evidenced by outstanding order volumes, sales volumes have been negatively impacted by product availability and supply chain disruptions, particularly in Fishing, the Company's largest segment, as described above. This sales volume decrease and the lower gross margins resulting from higher costs of sales were the primary drivers of the $14,300 decrease in operating profit over the prior year quarter.
Seasonality
The Company’s business is seasonal in nature. The third fiscal quarter traditionally falls within the Company’s primary selling season for its warm-weather outdoor recreation products. The table below sets forth a historical view of the Company’s seasonality during the last three fiscal years. Due to the timing of the COVID-19 outbreak, the Company's traditional seasonal sales pacing, where our heaviest sales volumes typically occurred during our second and third fiscal quarters, shifted during fiscal 2020. See “Coronavirus (COVID-19)” above for additional information regarding the impact of COVID-19.

Net Sales
Consolidated net sales for the Third months ended July 1, 2022 were $203,819, a decrease of $9,749, or 5%, compared to $213,568 for the Third months ended July 2, 2021. Foreign currency translation had an unfavorable impact of less than 1% on current year third quarter net sales compared to the prior year's third quarter net sales.
Net sales for the Third months ended July 1, 2022 for the Fishing business were $136,565, a decrease of $18,783, or 12%, from $155,348 during the third fiscal quarter of the prior year. While customer and consumer demand remains solid, the decrease in Fishing sales was driven by significant supply chain disruptions and the resulting unavailability of certain necessary components (especially as it relates to electronic components) experienced in the current year quarter, which impacted the ability to complete product build and fill customer orders. Specifically, due to the technical and electronic nature of the product categories, the fishing segment has been the most susceptible to the previously discussed supply chain issues, as discussed in “Coronavirus (COVID-19)” above.
Net sales for the Camping business were $23,479 for the third quarter of the current fiscal year, an increase of $5,722, or 32%, from the prior year net sales during the same period of $17,757 due to increased sales of Jetboil and Eureka! consumer camping products. These higher levels of sales over the prior year period were due to continued strong participation in outdoor recreation activities.

Net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 for the Watercraft Recreation business were $21,872, an increase of $1,999, or 10%, compared to $19,873 in the prior year same period. Continued strong demand for the segment's Sportsman line and successful pedal product offerings drove the increase over the prior year quarter.
Net sales for Diving, our most global business, for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 were $22,201, an increase of $1,521 or 7% versus $20,680 for the Third months ended July 2, 2021. As several regions around the world have re-opened, sales volumes have increased along with the increase in tourism, partially offset by an unfavorable foreign currency translation impact on sales in this segment of approximately 5% versus the prior year quarter.
For the nine months ended July 1, 2022, consolidated net sales of $546,966 decreased $38,425 or 7% compared to $585,391 for the nine months ended July 2, 2021. Foreign currency translation had an unfavorable impact of less than 1% on net sales of the current year to date period versus the prior year to date period.
Net sales for the nine months ended July 1, 2022 for the Fishing business were $374,244, a decrease of $68,119, or 15% from $442,363 during the same period of the prior year. The decrease over the prior year to date period was driven mainly by the previously discussed logistics and supply chain disruptions which adversely impacted our ability to satisfy customer demand for product orders.
Net sales for the Camping business were $56,780 for the nine months ended July 1, 2022, an increase of $12,585, or 28%, from the prior year net sales during the same period of $44,195. Increased sales of Jetboil and Eureka! consumer camping products as a result of increased participation in outdoor recreation activities were the primary driver of the increase.
Net sales for the nine months ended July 1, 2022 for the Watercraft Recreation business were $59,481, an increase of $9,387, or 19%, compared to $50,094 in the prior year same period. Increased demand as a result of increased participation in watercraft recreation drove the overall increase over the prior year to date period.
Diving net sales were $56,886 for the nine months ended July 1, 2022 versus $48,981 for the nine months ended July 2, 2021, an increase of $7,905, or 16%. The sales increase between periods was largely due to increased demand for our products as the global tourism industry has started to recover following the removal of many travel restrictions imposed in the prior year as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The impact of increased sales volumes was offset in part by the unfavorable effect of foreign currency translation of approximately 4% versus the prior year to date period.
Cost of Sales
Despite the decrease in sales between quarters noted above, cost of sales for the Third months ended July 1, 2022 of $130,310 increased $14,253 compared to $116,057 for the Third months ended July 2, 2021. The increase year over year was driven primarily by significant increases in materials costs. The Company continues to manage disruptions in its supply chain to ensure the availability of necessary components, parts and other raw materials, in some cases at significantly higher price points than what was historically paid, to try to meet sales demand for our products across our segments.
For the nine months ended July 1, 2022, cost of sales was $344,241 compared to $319,596 in the same period of the prior year. The increase year over year was primarily driven by increased material and inbound freight costs in the current year versus the prior year.
Gross Profit Margin
For the Third months ended July 1, 2022, gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 36.1% compared to 45.7% in the Third month period ended July 2, 2021. While the Company has implemented price increases across product lines, these actions were not enough to offset the negative gross profit impact of raw material and component cost increases noted above as well as reduced overhead absorption.
For the nine months ended July 1, 2022, gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 37.1% compared to 45.4% in the prior nine month period. As noted above, the Company has implemented price increases across product lines, but they have not outweighed the negative gross profit impact of cost increases and reduced overhead absorption noted above.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses were $49,710 for the Third months ended July 1, 2022, compared to $59,412 for the Third months ended July 2, 2021. The decrease of $9,702 was primarily due to the impact of lower sales volume-driven expenses, as well as lower variable and deferred compensation expense, between quarters. Unfavorable market conditions on the Company's deferred

compensation plan assets resulted in approximately $5,300 of lower deferred compensation expense in the current year quarter as compared to the prior year quarter, which was entirely offset by a loss in Other Expense (Income), net related to marking these deferred compensation plan assets to market.
Operating expenses were $149,737 for the nine months ended April 2, 2021, compared to $168,103 for the nine months ended July 2, 2021. The decrease of $18,366 was primarily due to the impact of lower sales volume-driven expenses, as well as lower variable and deferred compensation expense, between periods. Unfavorable market conditions on the Company's deferred compensation plan assets resulted in approximately $10,000 of lower deferred compensation expense in the current year to date period as compared to the prior year to date period, which was entirely offset by a loss in Other Expense (Income), net related to marking these deferred compensation plan assets to market.
Operating Profit
Operating profit on a consolidated basis for the Third month period ended July 1, 2022 was $23,799, compared to an operating profit of $38,099 in the third quarter of the prior fiscal year. Lower sales volumes and reduced gross margins as discussed above were the primary drivers of the decrease in operating profit between quarters.
Operating profit on a consolidated basis for the nine months ended July 1, 2022 was $52,988, compared to an operating profit of $97,692 in the prior year to date period. The decrease year over year was driven primarily by lower sales volumes and reduced gross margins as discussed above.
Interest
Interest expense was $30 and $35 for the Third months ended July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021, respectively. Interest expense was $117 for the nine months ended July 1, 2022 compared to $102 for the nine months ended July 2, 2021.
Interest income for the Third month periods ended July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021 was $144 and $76, respectively. Interest income was $339 for the nine months ended July 1, 2022 compared to $238 for the nine months ended July 2, 2021.
Other Expense (Income), net
Other expense was $4,669 for the Third months ended July 1, 2022 compared to other income of $934 in the prior year period. Net investment losses on the assets related to the Company’s non-qualified deferred compensation plan were $3,741 in the Third month period ended July 1, 2022 compared to net investment gains and earnings of $1,550 in the Third month period ended July 2, 2021. The change year over year in the investment value of these assets was offset by the decrease in deferred compensation expense included in the Company's Operating expenses during the same periods. For the Third months ended July 1, 2022, foreign currency exchange losses were $807 compared to $220 for the Third months ended July 2, 2021.
For the nine months ended July 1, 2022, other expense was $6,167 compared to other income of $4,567 in the nine months ended July 2, 2021. Net investment losses on the assets related to the Company’s non-qualified deferred compensation plan in the nine months ended July 1, 2022 were $4,443, compared to net investment gains and earnings of $5,554 in the nine months ended July 2, 2021. Foreign currency exchange losses were $1,320 for the nine months ended July 1, 2022, compared to $99 for the nine months ended July 2, 2021.
Income Tax Expense
The Company’s provision for income taxes is based upon estimated annual effective tax rates in the tax jurisdictions in which the Company operates. The effective tax rate for the three and nine month periods ended July 1, 2022 were 26.8% and 25.9%, respectively, compared to 26.4% and 25.3% in the corresponding periods of the prior year.
Net Income
Net income for the three months ended July 1, 2022 was $14,082, or $1.38 per diluted common class A and B share, compared to net income of $28,774, or $2.83 per diluted common class A and B share, for the third quarter of the prior fiscal year.
Net income for the nine months ended July 1, 2022 was $34,838, or $3.42 per diluted common class A and B share, compared to net income of $76,455, or $7.53 per diluted common class A and B share, for the nine months ended July 2, 2021.
Liquidity and Financial Condition
- 26 -

Index | JOHNSON OUTDOORS INC. |

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $117,567 as of July 1, 2022, compared to cash and cash equivalents of $249,016 as of July 2, 2021. The decrease in cash year over year was due primarily to the Company's decision to build and procure numerous categories of inventory (in some cases at significantly higher prices than was historically paid) in an attempt to mitigate against potential shortages during this fiscal year. The Company’s debt to total capitalization ratio was 0% as of July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021. The Company’s total debt balance was $0 as of each of July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021. See “Note 11 – Indebtedness” in the notes to the Company’s accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion.
Accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, were $103,244 as of July 1, 2022, an increase of $8,494 compared to $94,750 as of July 2, 2021. The increase is consistent with increased sales volumes in three of the operating segments year over year. Receivables balances in the Fishing segment remained consistent with the prior year. Inventories were $250,956 as of July 1, 2022, an increase of $120,214, compared to $130,742 as of July 2, 2021. As noted above, the increase in our inventory balances over the prior year period is primarily due to increased raw material and other component purchases, in many instances at higher costs, in an effort to meet increased demand for products in the current year period. Accounts payable were $50,780 at July 1, 2022 compared to $54,991 as of July 2, 2021.
The Company’s cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities, as presented in the Company’s accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, are summarized in the following table:

| Nine months ended

Cash (used for) provided by: |  |
Operating activities | $ | (86,413) |  | $ | 57,611 |
Investing activities | (25,150) |  | (15,468) |

Effect of foreign currency rate changes on cash | (2,104) |  | 1,228 |
(Decrease) increase in cash and cash equivalents | $ | (122,881) |  | $ | 36,579 |

Operating Activities
Cash used for operations totaled $86,413 for the nine months ended July 1, 2022 compared to cash provided by operations of $57,611 during the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. The increase in cash used for operations over the prior year nine month period was due primarily to the Company's decision to build and procure certain raw material and component inventory in its attempt to mitigate against shortages in meeting product demand. Lower net income in the current year to date period also contributed to the change between periods. Depreciation and amortization charges were $10,434 for the nine month period ended July 1, 2022 compared to $10,015 for the corresponding period of the prior year.
Investing Activities
Cash used for investing activities totaled $25,150 for the nine months ended July 1, 2022 compared to $15,468 for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. Cash usage for capital expenditures totaled $25,162 for the current year nine month period and $15,481 for the prior year period. The increase in capital expenditures in the current year period is primarily related to the expansion of Fishing facilities to accommodate additional production. Any additional capital expenditures in fiscal 2022 are expected to be funded by working capital.
Financing Activities
Cash used for financing activities totaled $9,214 for the nine months ended July 1, 2022 compared to $6,792 for the nine month period ended July 2, 2021 and represents the payment of dividends and purchase of treasury stock. The Company had no debt during either quarter ended July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021. See Note 11 "Indebtedness" to the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our credit facilities.
As of July 1, 2022 the Company held approximately $52,208 of cash and cash equivalents in bank accounts in foreign taxing jurisdictions.

The Company’s critical accounting policies and estimates are identified in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending October 1, 2021 in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations under the heading “Critical Accounting Estimates”, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 10, 2021. There were no significant changes to the Company’s critical accounting policies and estimates during the nine months ended July 1, 2022.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Except as noted below with respect to the COVID-19 outbreak, the Company’s exposure to market risk is limited to the availability of necessary raw materials and fluctuations in raw material commodity and other component prices, interest rate fluctuations on borrowings under our unsecured credit facilities and foreign currency exchange rate risk associated with our foreign operations. The Company does not utilize financial instruments for trading purposes.
Coronavirus outbreak
As disclosed in our prior filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and elsewhere herein, in December 2019, a new strain of coronavirus ("COVID-19") began to spread globally, leaving no region or part of the world unaffected by the pandemic it has created. Governments and health authorities have been taking, and continue to take, measures to prevent the spread of this virus, and have approved the use of vaccines to help curb the spread of this virus, but it is presently unknown to what extent the vaccines and these other actions will be successful or the potential timing of completion of these measures and their outcome and any resulting impact on the Company's business in the future, including related to demand for the Company's products and any continued disruption in the supply of (or the costs associated with) components and raw materials needed for the Company to produce products to meet sales demand. If COVID-19 is not contained, among other things, the ability of the Company’s suppliers to manufacture and deliver the products that it sells to the Company (at the quantities and pricing demanded by the Company), the ability of the Company to manufacture and deliver its products to its customers, the Company's ability to display its products at trade shows and similar events, the Company's ability to conduct meetings with its customers and prospective customers, and, if a significant number of its employees at a particular facility or location were to contract coronavirus, the Company’s ability to conduct its day-to-day operations could all be adversely impacted. The continued financial impact of the coronavirus pandemic on the Company (including with respect to the continued heightened demand for the Company’s outdoor recreation products and any continued disruption in its supply chain and global logistics infrastructure) will depend on future developments and cannot be reasonably predicted or estimated at this time, but could materially and adversely affect its results for an unknown but possibly extended period. See the section "Risk Factors" identified in Part I, Item 1A in our Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 10, 2021 for more information.
Foreign Exchange Risk
The Company has significant foreign operations, for which the functional currencies are denominated primarily in euros, Swiss francs, Hong Kong dollars, and Canadian dollars. As the values of the currencies of the foreign countries in which the Company has operations increase or decrease relative to the U.S. dollar, the sales, expenses, profits, losses, assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign operations, as reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements, increase or decrease, accordingly. Approximately 13% of the Company’s revenues for the nine month period ended July 1, 2022 were denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Approximately 4% were denominated in euros, approximately 7% in Canadian dollars and approximately 1% in Hong Kong dollars, with the remaining revenues denominated in various other foreign currencies. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates can cause unexpected financial losses or cash flow needs. The Company may

mitigate a portion of the fluctuations in certain foreign currencies through the use of foreign currency forward contracts. Foreign currency forward contracts enable the Company to lock in the foreign currency exchange rate to be paid or received for a fixed amount of currency at a specified date in the future. The Company may use such foreign currency forward contracts to mitigate the risk associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates on financial instruments and known commitments, including commitments for inventory purchases, denominated in foreign currencies. As of July 1, 2022 and July 2, 2021, the Company held no foreign currency forward contracts.
Interest Rate Risk
The Company operates in a seasonal business and experiences significant fluctuations in operating cash flow as working capital needs increase in advance of the Company’s primary selling and cash generation season, and decline as accounts receivable are collected and cash is accumulated or debt is repaid. The Company is subject to interest rate risk on its seasonal working capital needs if such needs are funded with short term floating rate debt.
Commodities
Certain components used in the Company’s products are exposed to commodity price changes. The Company manages this risk through instruments such as purchase orders and non-cancelable supply contracts. Primary commodity price exposures include costs associated with metals, resins and packaging materials.
Impact of Inflation
The Company anticipates that changing costs of basic raw materials may impact future operating costs and, accordingly, the prices of its products. The Company is involved in continuing programs to mitigate the impact of cost increases through changes in product design and identification of sourcing and manufacturing efficiencies. Price increases and, in certain situations, price decreases are implemented for individual products, when appropriate.
The Company’s results of operations and financial condition are presented based on historical cost.
Supply Chain Sourcing Risk
As described elsewhere herein, the COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted the normal seasonal selling patterns for the Company’s warm-weather outdoor recreation products. As stay at home restrictions were lifted, the Company has seen an increase in demand for its products that has continued into fiscal 2022. This higher than normal level of demand has (along with demand for certain raw materials and components used in our products from third parties in other industries unrelated to our products) placed strain on the Company’s supply chain and the global logistics infrastructure, which has resulted in, and may continue to result in, limited availability of key raw materials and components that may ultimately result in delays in completing inventory builds, fulfilling orders and/or higher purchase prices (including increased expediting costs) to get the raw material and other components needed for the Company to fulfill orders and meet demand. The Company is monitoring this risk and planning for alternative sources of supply of critical components where feasible.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to its management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at reaching a level of reasonable assurance. It should be noted that in designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. The Company has designed its disclosure controls and procedures to reach a level of reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.
