1. Organization

We are one of the world’s leading manufacturers and designers of firearms. We manufacture a wide array of handguns (including revolvers and pistols), long guns (including modern sporting rifles, pistol caliber carbines, and lever-action rifles), handcuffs, firearm suppressors, and other firearm-related products for sale to a wide variety of customers, including firearm enthusiasts, collectors, hunters, sportsmen, competitive shooters, individuals desiring home and personal protection, law enforcement and security agencies and officers, and military agencies in the United States and throughout the world. We sell our products under the Smith & Wesson and Gemtech brands. We manufacture our products at our facilities in Maryville, Tennessee; Springfield, Massachusetts; and Houlton, Maine. We also sell our manufacturing services under our Smith & Wesson and Smith & Wesson Precision Components brands to other businesses to attempt to level-load our factories. During the fiscal year ended April 30, 2025, or fiscal 2025, we discontinued operations at our Deep River, Connecticut facility and vacated the premises. See Note 14 — Commitments and Contingencies for more information.
