NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

​

NOTE 1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Clarus Corporation and subsidiaries (which may be referred to as the “Company,” “Clarus,” “we,” “us” or “our”) as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), instructions to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, except otherwise disclosed) necessary for a fair presentation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. The results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be obtained for the year ending December 31, 2024. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 7, 2024.

Nature of Business

Headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah, we are a global leader in the design and development of best-in-class equipment and lifestyle products for outdoor enthusiasts. Driven by our rich history of engineering and innovation, our objective is to provide safe, simple, effective and beautiful products so that our customers can maximize their outdoor pursuits and adventures. Each of our brands has a long history of continuous product innovation for core and everyday users alike. The Company’s products are principally sold globally under the Black Diamond®, Rhino-Rack®, MAXTRAX®, and TRED Outdoors® brand names through outdoor specialty and online retailers, our own websites, distributors and original equipment manufacturers.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The more significant estimates relate to the fair value of net assets acquired in business combinations, provision for excess or obsolete inventory, allowance for credit losses, and valuation of contingent consideration liabilities, deferred tax assets, long-lived assets, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, and other intangible assets. We base our estimates on historical experience, projected future cash flows, and other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

​

Reclassifications

​

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period financial statements to conform to the current period presentation. Specifically, legal costs associated with specific legal matters which were recorded in selling, general, and administrative expenses are now presented in legal costs and regulatory matter expenses in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). See Note 16 for discussion regarding legal matters.

NOTE 2. ACQUISITIONS

TRED

On September 13, 2023, Clarus entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the “TRED Purchase Agreement”) to acquire TRED Outdoors Pty Ltd. (“TRED”), which subsequently closed on October 9, 2023. All United States dollar amounts contained herein are based on the exchange rates in effect for Australian dollars ($AUD) and the market value of the Company’s common stock at the time of closing of the acquisition of TRED (the “TRED Acquisition”).

The Company acquired TRED for an aggregate purchase price of $AUD 10,741 (approximately $6,849), subject to a post-closing adjustment, comprised of $AUD 8,875 (approximately $5,659) cash, 179 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $1,069, and additional consideration described below. The TRED Purchase Agreement provides for the payment of additional contingent consideration of up to $AUD 1,000 (approximately $638) in cash upon the satisfaction of certain net sales targets (the “TRED Contingent Consideration”). The Company estimated the initial fair value of the TRED Contingent Consideration to be $AUD 189 (approximately $121) and recorded this liability within accrued liabilities. See Note 11 for discussion regarding the valuation of the TRED Contingent Consideration as of September 30, 2024. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination.

The Company believes the acquisition of TRED will provide the Company with a greater combined global revenue base, increased gross margins, profitability and free cash flows, and access to increased liquidity to further acquire and grow businesses.

The following table is a reconciliation to the fair value of the purchase consideration and how the purchase consideration is allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed which have been estimated at their fair values. The fair value measurements for the acquisition of TRED have been completed. The excess of purchase consideration over the assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recorded as goodwill. Goodwill for TRED is included in the Adventure segment. The goodwill consists largely of the growth and profitability expected from the acquisition.

NOTE 9. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company’s primary exchange rate risk management objective is to mitigate the uncertainty of anticipated cash flows attributable to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company primarily focuses on mitigating changes in cash flows resulting from sales denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. The Company manages this risk primarily by using currency forward and option contracts. If the anticipated transactions are deemed probable, the resulting relationships are formally designated as cash flow hedges. The Company accounts for these contracts as cash flow hedges and tests effectiveness by determining whether changes in the expected cash flow of the derivative offset, within a range, changes in the expected cash flow of the hedged item.

At September 30, 2024, the Company’s derivative contracts had remaining maturities of less than one year. The counterparties to these transactions had both long-term and short-term investment grade credit ratings. The maximum net exposure of the Company’s credit risk to the counterparties is generally limited to the aggregate unrealized loss of all contracts with that counterparty, which was $13 as of September 30, 2024. The Company’s exposure of counterparty credit risk is limited to the aggregate unrealized gain on all contracts. As of September 30, 2024, there was no such exposure to the counterparties. The Company’s derivative counterparties have strong credit ratings and as a result, the Company does not require collateral to facilitate transactions.

The Company held the following contracts designated as hedging instruments as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

​

​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | September 30, 2024
​ | Notional |  | Latest
​ | Amount | ​ | Maturity
​ | ​ | ​ | ​
Foreign exchange contracts - Canadian Dollars | $3,574 | ​ | February 2025
Foreign exchange contracts - Euros | € 13,296 | ​ | August 2025

​

​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | December 31, 2023
​ | Notional |  | Latest
​ | Amount | ​ | Maturity
​ | ​ | ​ | ​
Foreign exchange contracts - Canadian Dollars | $7,925 | ​ | February 2025
Foreign exchange contracts - Euros | € 20,612 | ​ | February 2025

​

For contracts that qualify as effective hedge instruments, the effective portion of gains and losses resulting from changes in fair value of the instruments are included in accumulated other comprehensive loss and reclassified to sales in the period the underlying hedged transaction is recognized in earnings. Gains of $14 and $226 were reclassified to sales during the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $231 and $167 were reclassified to sales during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

NOTE 11. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

We measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants, under a three-tier fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1 - inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 - inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices in markets that are not active or model inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3 - inputs to the valuation methodology are based on prices or valuation techniques that are unobservable.

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were as follows:

​

Derivative financial instruments are recorded at fair value based on current market pricing models. No nonrecurring fair value measurements existed at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

The Company estimated the initial fair value of the contingent consideration liabilities primarily using the Monte-Carlo pricing model. Significant unobservable inputs used in the valuation included a discount rate of 11.5%. Contingent consideration liabilities are subsequently remeasured at the estimated fair value at the end of each reporting period using

​

financial projections of the acquired company, such as sales-based milestones and estimated probabilities of achievement, with the change in fair value recognized in contingent consideration benefit in the accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) for such period. We measure the initial liability and remeasure the liability on a recurring basis using Level 3 inputs as defined under authoritative guidance for fair value measurements.

The following table summarizes the changes in contingent consideration liabilities:

​ | ​ | ​
Fair value adjustments | ​ | (125)
Impact of foreign currency exchange rates | ​ | (4)
​ | ​ | ​
Balance at September 30, 2024 | $ | -

​

As the contingent consideration liabilities are remeasured to fair value each reporting period, significant increases or decreases in projected sales, discount rates or the time until payment is made could result in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement. Our determination of fair value of the contingent consideration liabilities could change in future periods based on our ongoing evaluation of these significant unobservable inputs. As of September 30, 2024, the net sales threshold required for the payment of the TRED contingent consideration is not expected to be met.

​

NOTE 12. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

On August 6, 2018, the Company announced that its Board of Directors approved the initiation of a quarterly cash dividend program of $0.025 per share of the Company’s common stock (the “Quarterly Cash Dividend”) or $0.10 per share on an annualized basis. The declaration and payment of future Quarterly Cash Dividends is subject to the discretion of and approval of the Company’s Board of Directors. On November 6, 2024, the Company announced that its Board of Directors approved the payment on November 27, 2024 of the Quarterly Cash Dividend of $0.025 to the record holders of shares of the Company’s common stock as of the close of business on November 18, 2024.

​

​

NOTE 13. EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing earnings (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing earnings (loss) by the total of the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period, plus the effect of dilutive outstanding stock options and unvested restricted stock grants. Potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share if their effect is anti-dilutive to the loss from continuing operations.

For the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, equity awards of 5,762 and 4,922, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, equity awards of 5,217 and 5,613, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of earnings (loss) per share for these periods as they were anti-dilutive.

​

​

NOTE 14. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLAN

Under the Company’s current 2015 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2015 Plan”), the Company’s Board of Directors has flexibility to determine the type and amount of awards to be granted to eligible participants, who must be employees, directors, officers or consultants of the Company or its subsidiaries. The 2015 Plan allows for grants of incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, restricted stock awards, stock appreciation rights, and restricted units. The aggregate number of shares of common stock that may be granted through awards under the 2015 Plan to any employee in any calendar year may not exceed 500 shares. The 2015 Plan will continue in effect until December 2025 unless terminated sooner.

​

Options Granted:

​

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company issued stock options for an aggregate of 1,240 shares under the 2015 Plan to directors and employees of the Company. Of the 1,240 options, 1,140 options vest and become exercisable over a period of two years and 100 vest in four equal consecutive quarterly tranches from the date of grant. All of the issued stock options expire ten years from the date of the grant.

​

For computing the fair value of the stock-based awards, the fair value of each option grant has been estimated as of the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:

​

Options Granted During the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024

​

​ | ​ | ​
Number of options | ​ | 1,240
Option vesting period | ​ | 1 - 2 Years
Grant price (per share) | ​ | $6.75 - $6.81
Dividend yield | ​ | 1.47% - 1.48%
Expected volatility (a) | ​ | 50.3% - 51.9%
Risk-free interest rate | ​ | 4.08% - 4.57%
Expected life (years) (b) | ​ | 5.31 - 5.75
Weighted average fair value (per share) | ​ | $3.06 - $3.12

​

| (a) | Expected volatility is based upon the Company’s historical volatility.

​

| (b) | The expected term was determined based upon the underlying terms of the awards and the category and employment history of employee award recipient.

​

​

The grant date fair value of the stock options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $3,798, which will be recognized over the vesting period of the options.

Restricted Stock Awards Granted:

On March 11, 2024, the Company issued and granted employees restricted stock awards of 100 restricted shares under the 2015 Plan, of which 50 and 50 shares will vest and become nonforfeitable on each March 11, 2025 and March 11, 2026, respectively. As these restricted stock awards vest over time, the fair value of the restricted stock was estimated as of the date of grant using the grant price of $6.75 per share. The grant date fair value of the restricted stock awards was approximately $675 which will be amortized over the expected term of 2 years.

The total non-cash stock compensation expense for continuing operations related to restricted stock, stock options and stock awards recorded by the Company for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 was $1,547 and $1,151, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 was $4,253 and $3,923, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the majority of stock-based compensation costs were classified as selling, general and administrative expenses.

As of September 30, 2024, there were 1,146 unvested stock options and unrecognized compensation cost of $2,849 related to unvested stock options, as well as 1,600 unvested restricted stock awards and unrecognized compensation costs of $5,249 related to unvested restricted stock awards.

​

​

NOTE 15. RESTRUCTURING

Starting in 2023, the Company began incurring expenses to facilitate long-term sustainable growth through cost reduction actions, consisting of employee reductions, facility rationalization and contract termination costs. During the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company incurred $478 and $1,076, respectively, and during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company incurred $1,009 and $1,812, respectively, of restructuring charges related to these actions. The Company has incurred $4,232 of cumulative restructuring charges since the commencement of restructuring actions in 2023. The Company accrues for restructuring costs when they are probable and reasonably estimable. These costs include severance costs, exit costs, and other restructuring costs and are included in restructuring

​

charges in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). Severance costs primarily consist of severance benefits through payroll continuation, conditional separation costs and employer tax liabilities, while exit costs primarily consist of lease exit and contract termination costs. Other costs consist primarily of costs related to the discontinuance of certain product lines and are distinguishable and directly attributable to the Company’s restructuring initiative and not a result of external market factors associated with the ongoing business. We estimate that we will continue to incur restructuring costs related to employee-related costs and facility exit costs during the year 2024; however, the Company cannot estimate the total amount expected to be incurred as cost reduction actions continue to be evaluated. The Company anticipates completing these restructuring activities in 2025.

The following table summarizes the restructuring charges, payments and the remaining liabilities related to restructuring costs at September 30, 2024, which are included within accrued liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets:

NOTE 16. COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND LEGAL MATTERS

As a consumer goods manufacturer and distributor, the Company faces the risk of product liability and related lawsuits involving claims for substantial money damages, product recall actions and higher than anticipated rates of warranty returns or other returns of goods. The Company is therefore vulnerable to various personal injury and property damage lawsuits relating to its products and incidental to its business.

The Company is involved in various legal disputes and other legal proceedings that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of business. Anticipated costs related to litigation matters are accrued when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Based on currently available information, the Company does not believe that it is reasonably possible that the disposition of any of the legal disputes the Company or its subsidiaries is currently involved in will have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows, except for the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (“CPSC”) matter discussed below. There is a reasonable possibility of loss from contingencies in excess of the amounts accrued by the Company in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets; however, the actual amounts of such possible losses cannot currently be reasonably estimated by the Company. It is possible that, as additional information becomes available, the Company may subsequently determine that it may incur losses from such contingencies materially in excess of the amounts initially accrued by the Company which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s liquidity, stock price, consolidated financial position, results of operations and/or cash flows.

​

Legal expenses incurred in the ordinary course of business are included in selling, general, and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) except as described below. See Part II, Item 1. “Legal Proceedings.”

U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission

In January 2021, Black Diamond Equipment, Ltd. (“BDEL”) wrote to the CPSC outlining its new cradle solution for certain models of its avalanche beacon transceivers to prevent such transceivers from switching unexpectedly out of “send” mode. The proposed new cradle solution was designed to improve transceiver safety by locking the transceiver into “send” mode prior to use so that it would not switch unexpectedly out of “send” mode. BDEL also requested approval for the CPSC Fast-Track Program for a voluntary product recall to implement this cradle solution. The CPSC approved the recall and entered into a Corrective Action Plan agreement with BDEL in March 2021. BDEL received a letter from the CPSC, dated October 28, 2021, stating that the CPSC is investigating whether BDEL has timely complied with the reporting requirements of Section 15(b) of the Consumer Protection Safety Act and related regulations regarding certain models of avalanche transceivers switching unexpectedly out of “send” mode.

Separately, on April 21, 2022, BDEL filed a Section 15(b) report and applied for Fast-Track consideration for a voluntary recall, consisting of free repair or replacement of such malfunctioning models of avalanche transceivers, which would not switch from “send” mode to “search” mode due to an electronic malfunction in the reed switch or foil. The CPSC approved the recall and entered into a Corrective Action Plan agreement with BDEL in August 2022. BDEL received a letter from the CPSC, dated January 17, 2023, stating that the CPSC is investigating whether BDEL has timely complied with the reporting requirements of Section 15(b) of the Consumer Protection Safety Act and related regulations regarding the malfunction in the reed switch or foil in certain models of avalanche transceivers switching out of “search” mode. BDEL responded to the CPSC’s investigation by letter dated March 31, 2023, accompanied with documents responsive to the CPSC’s requests. The CPSC asked for further clarification and documents, and BDEL sent a responsive letter accompanied by additional documents on June 23, 2023. On September 6, 2023, the CPSC requested further clarification and information regarding the reed switch issue, to which BDEL responded on October 6 and 13, 2023.

By letters dated October 12, 2023 and December 18, 2023, BDEL was notified by the CPSC that the agency staff has concluded BDEL failed to timely meet our statutory reporting obligations under the Consumer Product Safety Act with respect to certain models of BDEL’s avalanche transceivers switching unexpectedly out of “send” mode and certain models of BDEL’s avalanche transceivers not switching from “send” mode into “search” mode, that BDEL made a material misrepresentation in a report to the CPSC, and that the agency staff intends to recommend that the CPSC impose civil monetary penalties of $16,135 and $9,000, respectively, for the two matters described above.

On November 20, 2023 and February 8, 2024, respectively, BDEL submitted a comprehensive response disputing the CPSC’s findings and conclusions in the October 12, 2023 and December 18, 2023 letters, including the amount of any potential penalties. The CPSC ultimately disagreed with our position and the agency staff has restated their recommendation for the monetary penalties which the Company intends to strongly contest and vigorously defend against.

John C. Walbrecht, the former President of BDEL and the Company, received a letter from the CPSC dated June 25, 2024 alleging that in his personal capacity he knowingly violated the Consumer Product Safety Act by failing to timely report the occurrence resulting in beacons switching unexpectedly out of “send” mode. The staff of the CPSC recommended a $5,000 fine against Mr. Walbrecht personally. Pursuant to the Company’s by-laws, the Company has agreed to indemnify Mr. Walbrecht and pay his legal fees, and he has provided an undertaking to the Company that the Company will be entitled to recover those expenses if it is ultimately determined that he was not entitled to indemnification. On August 26, 2024, Mr. Walbrecht’s independent counsel responded to the CPSC, denying the allegations of its June 25 letter and rejecting its demand for a penalty.

Based on currently available information, the Company believes an unfavorable outcome with the CPSC is probable, however, we cannot reasonably estimate on what terms this matter will be resolved. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recorded a liability of $2,500 representing the low end of the range of our estimated exposure. The Company does not have a better estimate of the loss; therefore the low-end of the range was recorded as an

26

(in thousands, except per share amounts)

​

accrued liability during the first quarter of 2024 and a corresponding expense is included in legal costs and regulatory matter expenses in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).

We believe it is reasonably possible that a change in our ability to estimate the amount of loss could occur in the near term and that the change in the estimate could be material. In addition, as this matter is ongoing, the Company is currently unable to predict its duration, resources required or outcome, or the impact it may have on the Company’s liquidity, financial condition, results of operations and/or cash flows. Any penalties imposed by the CPSC or other regulators, could be costly to us and could damage our business and reputation as well as have a material adverse effect on the Company’s liquidity, stock price, consolidated financial position, results of operations and/or cash flows. During the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company incurred legal expenses of $194 and $53, respectively, and during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company incurred legal expenses of $579 and $216, respectively, in efforts to resolve this matter. These legal expenses are included in legal costs and regulatory matter expenses in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).

Clarus Corporation v. HAP Trading, LLC and Harsh A. Padia

On September 23, 2022, the Company filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against HAP Trading, LLC and Harsh A. Padia (“HAP Trading”), seeking disgorgement of profits from transactions in the Company’s common stock and related derivative securities in violation of Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Clarus Corporation v. Caption Management, LLC, et al.

On March 8, 2024, the Company filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against Caption Management, LLC, Caption Partners II LP, Caption GP, LLC, William Cooper and Jason Strasser (“Caption Management”), seeking disgorgement of profits from transactions in the Company’s stock and related derivative securities in violation of Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

During the three months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023, the Company incurred legal expenses of $200 and $526, respectively, and during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company incurred legal expenses of $716 and $846, respectively, in the efforts to bring the cases against HAP Trading and Caption Management to trial. These legal expenses are included in legal costs and regulatory matter expenses in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).

NOTE 17. INCOME TAXES

The Company’s U.S. federal statutory tax rate is 21% and its foreign operations have statutory tax rates of approximately 23% in Austria, 28% in New Zealand, and 30% in Australia.

The difference between the Company’s estimated effective tax rate benefit of 17.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2024, and the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21% was primarily due to the impact of stock compensation and research and experimentation expenditures and credits in the third quarter of 2024.

The difference between the Company’s estimated effective tax rate benefit of 17.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, and the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21% was primarily due to the impact of stock compensation and research and experimentation expenditures and credits in the first three quarters of 2024.

As of December 31, 2023, the Company’s gross deferred tax asset was $39,893. The Company has recorded a valuation allowance of $714, resulting in a net deferred tax asset of $39,179, before deferred tax liabilities of $34,434. The Company

​

has provided a valuation allowance against a portion of the deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, because the ultimate realization of those assets did not meet the more-likely-than-not criteria. Part of the Company’s deferred tax assets consist of net operating loss carryforwards (“NOLs”) for federal tax purposes. If a change in control were to occur, these could be limited under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (“Code”), as amended.

In assessing the realizability of deferred income tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible and net operating loss and credit carryforwards expire. The estimates and judgments associated with the Company’s valuation allowance on deferred tax assets are considered critical due to the amount of deferred tax assets recorded by the Company on its consolidated balance sheets and the judgment required in determining the Company’s future taxable income. The need for a valuation allowance is reassessed at each interim reporting period.

As of September 30, 2024, we had approximately $18,000 in U.S. net deferred tax assets. These deferred tax assets are expected to reverse into NOL carryforwards that can be used to offset taxable income and reduce income taxes payable in future periods. At this time, we consider it more likely than not that we will have sufficient taxable income in future periods that will allow us to realize these deferred tax assets. However, unless we can generate sufficient taxable income from our future operations, a valuation allowance to reduce our U.S. deferred tax assets may be required, which would materially increase our income tax expense in the period the allowance is recognized and have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and consolidated financial position.

As of December 31, 2023, the Company had NOLs and research and experimentation credit for U.S. federal income tax purposes of $7,699 and $2,997, respectively. The Company believes its U.S. Federal NOLs will offset a portion of its future U.S. Federal income taxes.

NOLs available to offset taxable income, subject to compliance with Section 382 of the Code, begin to expire based upon the following schedule:

Similarly, TRED, founded in 2012, is a trusted brand for key retailers and distributors in the overlanding and off-road vehicle recovery market.

Clarus, incorporated in Delaware in 1991, acquired Black Diamond Equipment, Ltd. in May 2010 and changed its name to Black Diamond, Inc. in January 2011. In October 2012, we acquired PIEPS Holding GmbH and its subsidiaries. On August 14, 2017, the Company changed its name from Black Diamond, Inc. to Clarus Corporation and its stock ticker symbol from “BDE” to “CLAR” on the NASDAQ stock exchange.

On August 21, 2017, the Company acquired Sierra Bullets, L.L.C. (“Sierra”). On November 6, 2018, the Company acquired the assets of SKINourishment, Inc. (“SKINourishment”). During the first quarter of 2024, the Company ceased operations of SKINourishment. On October 2, 2020, the Company completed the acquisition of certain assets and liabilities constituting the Barnes business (“Barnes”). On July 1, 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of Australia-based Rhino-Rack Holdings Pty Ltd (“Rhino-Rack”).

​

On August 6, 2018, the Company announced that its Board of Directors approved the initiation of a quarterly cash dividend program of $0.025 per share of the Company’s common stock (the “Quarterly Cash Dividend”) or $0.10 per share on an annualized basis. The declaration and payment of future Quarterly Cash Dividends is subject to the discretion of and approval of the Company’s Board of Directors. On November 6, 2024, the Company announced that its Board of Directors approved the payment on November 27, 2024 of the Quarterly Cash Dividend of $0.025 to the record holders of shares of the Company’s common stock as of the close of business on November 18, 2024.

Restructuring

Starting in 2023, the Company began incurring expenses to facilitate long-term sustainable growth through cost reduction actions, consisting of employee reductions, facility rationalization and contract termination costs. During the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company incurred $478 and $1,076, respectively, and during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company incurred $1,009 and $1,812, respectively, of restructuring charges related to these actions. The Company has incurred $4,232 of cumulative restructuring charges since the commencement of restructuring actions in 2023. The Company accrues for restructuring costs when they are probable and reasonably estimable. These costs include severance costs, exit costs, and other restructuring costs and are included in restructuring charges in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). Severance costs primarily consist of severance benefits through payroll continuation, conditional separation costs and employer tax liabilities, while exit costs primarily consist of lease exit and contract termination costs. Other costs consist primarily of costs related to the discontinuance of certain product lines and are distinguishable and directly attributable to the Company’s restructuring initiative and not a result of external market factors associated with the ongoing business. We estimate that we will continue to incur restructuring costs related to employee-related costs and facility exit costs during the year 2024; however, the Company cannot estimate the total amount expected to be incurred as cost reduction actions continue to be evaluated. The Company anticipates completing these restructuring activities in 2025.

Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates

Management’s discussion of our financial condition and results of operations is based on the consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements. Estimates also affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Our critical accounting policies that require the use of estimates and assumptions were discussed in detail in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. We base our estimates on historical experience and other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

No impairments were recorded for goodwill or intangible assets during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. However, factors such as a sustained decline in revenues and cash flows, or other adverse changes in macroeconomic conditions, including our current and future share price, could result in an impairment charge to our Adventure reporting unit in a future reporting period. The Company performs its annual impairment assessment during the fourth quarter of 2024.

At this time, we consider it more likely than not that we will have sufficient taxable income in future periods that will allow us to realize our deferred tax assets. However, unless we can generate sufficient taxable income from our future operations, a valuation allowance to reduce our U.S. deferred tax assets may be required, which would materially increase our income tax expense in the period the allowance is recognized and have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and consolidated financial position.

There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Sales

Total sales decreased $14,187, or 17.4%, to $67,115 during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to total sales of $81,302 during the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease in sales was attributable to a decrease in sales at the Outdoor and Adventure segments of $11,789 and $2,398, respectively.

Sales in the Adventure segment increased by $281 due to foreign exchange impact from the weakening of the U.S. dollar against the Australian dollar during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the prior period. Sales in the Outdoor segment were reduced by $13 due to foreign exchange impact from the strengthening of the U.S. dollar primarily against the euro during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the prior period.

Sales in the Outdoor segment decreased due to weakness in our North American wholesale and direct to consumer (“DTC”) channels, independent global distributor (“IGD”) customers, and softness in our European markets, combined with the effects from our product simplification and SKU rationalization strategy. Sales in the Adventure segment decreased due to lower demand from original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”) customers and challenging wholesale in the Australia and US markets, partially offset by a $1,237 increase from the TRED Outdoors acquisition.

Domestic sales decreased $6,058, or 19.9%, to $24,365 during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to domestic sales of $30,423 during the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease in sales was attributable to decreases at the Outdoor and Adventure segments of $5,253 and $805, respectively.

International sales decreased $8,129, or 16.0%, to $42,750 during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to international sales of $50,879 during the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease in sales was attributable to decreases at the Outdoor and Adventure segments of $6,536 and $1,593, respectively.

Cost of Goods Sold

Cost of goods sold decreased $10,400, or 19.3%, to $43,618 during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to cost of goods sold of $54,018 during the three months ended September 30, 2023.

Gross Profit

Gross profit decreased $3,787, or 13.9%, to $23,497 during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to gross profit of $27,284 during the three months ended September 30, 2023. Gross margin was 35.0% during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to a gross margin of 33.6% during the three months ended September 30, 2023. Gross margin during the three months ended September 30, 2024 increased compared to the prior year as a result of favorable product mix at the Outdoor segment, as well as a favorable channel mix due to lower OEM sales and higher MAXTRAX revenue at the Adventure segment. These increases were partially offset by an increase in polyfluoroalkyl substances (“PFAS”) related inventory reserve expenses at the Outdoor segment, as well as sales return reserve and rebate expenses at the Adventure segment.

Selling, General and Administrative

Selling, general, and administrative expenses decreased $524, or 1.8%, to $27,880 during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to selling, general and administrative expenses of $28,404 during the three months ended September 30, 2023. Selling, general and administrative expenses at the Outdoor segment decreased by $1,688 primarily as a result of lower retail expenses due to store closures and other expense reduction initiatives to manage costs. Selling, general and administrative expenses at the Adventure segment increased by $1,212 primarily as a result of investments in global marketing and e-commerce initiatives to accelerate growth.

Restructuring Charges

Restructuring charges decreased to $478 during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to restructuring charges of $1,076 during the three months ended September 30, 2023. The restructuring charges incurred during the three months ended September 30, 2024 relate to benefits provided to employees who were terminated due to the Company’s reduction-in-force as part of its continued realignment of resources within the organization of $478.

Transaction Costs

Transaction costs decreased to $103 during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to transaction costs of $400 during the three months ended September 30, 2023, which consisted of expenses related to the Company’s various acquisition efforts.

Legal Costs and Regulatory Matter Expenses

Legal costs and regulatory matter expenses decreased to $394 during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to legal costs and regulatory matter expenses of $579 during the three months ended September 30, 2023, which consisted of expenses related to the Company’s specific legal matters. See Note 16 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for financial information regarding specific legal matters.

Interest Income, net

Interest income, net increased to $373 during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to interest income, net of $19 during the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase in interest income recognized during the three months ended September 30, 2024, was due to interest income on higher cash balances.

Other, net

Other, net, changed by $1,609, or 361.6%, to $1,164 during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to other, net of ($445) during the three months ended September 30, 2023. The change in other, net, was primarily attributable to an increase in remeasurement gains recognized on the Company’s foreign denominated accounts receivable and accounts payable. The change was partially offset by losses in mark-to-market adjustments on non-hedged foreign currency contracts during the three months ended September 30, 2024.

Income Taxes

Income tax benefit decreased by $731, or 52.4%, to $664 during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $1,395 during the same period in 2023. Our effective income tax rate was a benefit of 17.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2024, and differed compared to the statutory tax rates primarily due to the impact of stock compensation and research and experimentation expenditures and credits. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, our effective income tax rate was a benefit of 38.7% and differed compared to the statutory tax rates primarily due to the impact of stock compensation, research and experimentation expenditures and credits, and discrete stock option windfall benefits.

Discontinued Operations

Net income from discontinued operations was $0 during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to net income from discontinued operations of $942 during the three months ended September 30, 2023. The change in net income from discontinued operations is due to the sale of the Precision Sport segment occurring during the three months ended March 31, 2024. There was no activity in discontinued operations during the three months ended September 30, 2024.

Sales

Total sales decreased $16,607, or 7.9%, to $192,910 during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to total sales of $209,517 during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease in sales was attributable to a decrease in sales at the Outdoor segment of $21,422, partially offset by an increase in sales at the Adventure segment of $4,815.

​

Sales in the Adventure segment were reduced by $611 due to foreign exchange impact from the strengthening of the U.S. dollar against the Australian dollar during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the prior period. Sales in the Outdoor segment increased by $256 due to foreign exchange impact from the weakening of the U.S. dollar primarily against the euro during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the prior period.

Sales in the Outdoor segment decreased due to weakness in our European, IGD, and North American markets, combined with the effects from our product simplification and SKU rationalization strategy. Sales in the Adventure segment increased due to higher demand from OEM customers, improved domestic MAXTRAX sales, and a $3,473 increase from the TRED Outdoors acquisition.

Domestic sales decreased $4,962, or 6.2%, to $75,583 during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to domestic sales of $80,545 during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease in sales was attributable to a decrease in sales at the Outdoor segment of $6,173, partially offset by an increase in sales at the Adventure segment of $1,211.

International sales decreased $11,645, or 9.0%, to $117,327 during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to international sales of $128,972 during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease in sales was attributable to a decrease in sales at the Outdoor segment of $15,249, partially offset by an increase in sales at the Adventure segment of $3,604.

Cost of Goods Sold

Cost of goods sold decreased $9,992, or 7.4%, to $124,156 during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to cost of goods sold of $134,148 during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Gross Profit

Gross profit decreased $6,615, or 8.8%, to $68,754 during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to gross profit of $75,369 during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Gross margin was 35.6% during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to a gross margin of 36.0% during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Gross margin during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, decreased compared to the prior year due to unfavorable PFAS-related inventory reserve expenses at the Outdoor segment, as well as an increase in sales return reserve and rebate expenses at the Adventure segment.

Selling, General and Administrative

Selling, general, and administrative expenses decreased $464, or 0.5%, to $84,176 during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to selling, general and administrative expenses of $84,640 during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Selling, general and administrative expenses at the Outdoor segment decreased by $4,850 primarily as a result of lower retail expenses due to store closures and other expense reduction initiatives to manage costs. Selling, general and administrative expenses at the Adventure segment increased by $3,753 primarily as a result of investments in global marketing, e-commerce initiatives, and organizational leadership to accelerate growth.

Restructuring Charges

Restructuring charges decreased to $1,009 during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to restructuring charges of $1,812 during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The restructuring charges incurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 relate to benefits provided to employees who were terminated due to the Company’s reduction-in-force as part of its continued realignment of resources within the organization of $993 and lease exit and contract termination costs of $16.

Transaction Costs

Transaction costs decreased to $168 during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to transaction costs of $459 during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, which consisted of expenses related to the Company’s various acquisition efforts.

Contingent Consideration Benefit

Contingent consideration benefit decreased to $125 during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to a contingent consideration benefit of $1,565 during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, which consisted of changes in the estimated fair value of contingent consideration liabilities associated with our acquisitions of MAXTRAX in 2021 and TRED in 2023.

Legal Costs and Regulatory Matter Expenses

Legal costs and regulatory matter expenses increased to $3,795 during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to legal costs and regulatory matter expenses of $1,062 during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The increase in legal costs and regulatory matter expenses recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 reflects the Company’s accrued liability for the outstanding regulatory matter with the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission and increased expenses related to the Company’s specific legal matters. See Note 16 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for financial information regarding specific legal matters.

Interest Income, net

Interest income, net increased to $1,198 during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to interest income, net of $32 during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The increase in interest income recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, was due to interest income on higher cash balances.

Other, net

Other, net, changed by $812, or 567.8%, to $669 during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to other, net of ($143) during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The change in other, net, was primarily attributable to a decrease in remeasurement losses recognized on the Company’s foreign denominated accounts receivable and accounts payable. The change was partially offset by a reduction in gains in mark-to-market adjustments on non-hedged foreign currency contracts during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Income Taxes

Income tax benefit increased by $699, or 27.0%, to $3,290 during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $2,591 during the same period in 2023. Our effective income tax rate was a benefit of 17.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, and differed compared to the statutory tax rates primarily due to the impact of stock compensation and research and experimentation expenditures and credits. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, our effective income tax rate was a benefit of 23.2% and differed compared to the statutory tax rates due to the impact of stock compensation, research and experimentation expenditures and credits, and discrete stock option windfall benefits.

Discontinued Operations

Net income from discontinued operations changed by $21,544, to $28,346 during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to net income from discontinued operations of $6,802 during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The change in net income from discontinued operations was primarily attributable to the pre-tax gain on the sale of the

Precision Sport segment of $40,585. There was no activity in discontinued operations during the three months ended September 30, 2024.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023

Our primary ongoing funding requirements are for working capital, expansion of our operations (both organically and through acquisitions) and general corporate needs, as well as investing in the various brands. We plan to fund these activities through a combination of our future operating cash flows and cash on hand. Upon the closing of the sale of the Precision Sport segment, the Company terminated and settled all outstanding borrowings on our revolving credit facility and term debt under the Credit Agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and the lenders party thereto (the “Restated Credit Agreement”). We believe that our liquidity requirements and contractual obligations for at least the next 12 months will be adequately covered by cash provided by operations and cash on hand. Additionally, long-term contractual obligations are currently expected to be funded from cash from operations and cash on hand.

At September 30, 2024, we had total cash of $36,399, compared to total cash of $11,324 at December 31, 2023. At September 30, 2024, the Company had $5,109 of the $36,399 in cash held by foreign entities, of which $3,819 is considered permanently reinvested.

The following presents a discussion of cash flows for the condensed consolidated nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared with the condensed consolidated nine months ended September 30, 2023.

​

Net Cash From Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities was $23,870 during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $17,428 during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The change in net cash (used in) provided by operating activities during 2024 is primarily due to the gain on sale of $40,585 related to the disposition of the Precision Sport segment and an increase in cash outflows related to working capital of $18,859. These were partially offset by an increase in net income and deferred income taxes, as well as a decrease in contingent consideration benefit during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023.

Free cash flow, defined as net cash (used in) provided by operating activities less capital expenditures, of ($28,395) was used during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $12,933 generated during the same period in 2023. The Company believes that the non-GAAP measure, free cash flow, provides an understanding of the capital required by the Company to expand its asset base. A reconciliation of free cash flows to the nearest comparable GAAP financial measure is set forth below:

​

Net Cash From Investing Activities

Net cash provided by investing activities was $171,144 during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $4,549 during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The increase in cash provided during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 is primarily due to the cash received related to the disposition of the Precision Sport segment, compared to the same period in 2023.

Net Cash From Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $122,281 during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $16,191 during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The change in net cash used in financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023 was primarily due to the settlement of all outstanding borrowings on our revolving credit facility and term debt under the Restated Credit Agreement.

Net Operating Loss

As of December 31, 2023, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards (“NOLs”) and research and experimentation credit for U.S. federal income tax purposes of $7,699 and $2,997, respectively. The Company believes its U.S. Federal NOLs will offset a portion of its future U.S. Federal income taxes. The Company has $7,699 of NOLs, of which, $0 expire on December 31, 2024. These NOLs are subject to compliance with Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (“Code”), as amended.

As of December 31, 2023, the Company’s gross deferred tax asset was $39,893. The Company has recorded a valuation allowance of $714, resulting in a net deferred tax asset of $39,179, before deferred tax liabilities of $34,434. The Company has provided a valuation allowance against a portion of the net deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2023, because the ultimate realization of those assets does not meet the more-likely-than-not criteria. Part of the Company’s deferred tax assets consist of net operating loss carryforwards for federal tax purposes. If a change in control were to occur, these could be limited under Section 382 of the Code.

As of September 30, 2024, we had approximately $18,000 in U.S. net deferred tax assets. These deferred tax assets are expected to reverse into NOL carryforwards that can be used to offset taxable income and reduce income taxes payable in future periods. At this time, we consider it more likely than not that we will have sufficient taxable income in future periods that will allow us to realize these deferred tax assets. However, unless we can generate sufficient taxable income from our future operations, a valuation allowance to reduce our U.S. deferred tax assets may be required, which would materially increase our income tax expense in the period the allowance is recognized and have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and consolidated financial position.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Legal Proceedings

The Company is involved in various legal disputes and other legal proceedings that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of business. Based on currently available information, and except as disclosed herein, the Company does not believe that the existence of any of the legal disputes the Company or its subsidiaries is currently involved in will have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows, except for the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (“CPSC”) matter discussed below. It is possible that, as additional information becomes available, the impact on the Company of an adverse determination could have a different effect. See also Part II, Item 1A. “Risk Factors.”.

Litigation

The Company is involved in various lawsuits arising from time to time that the Company considers ordinary routine litigation incidental to its business. Amounts accrued for litigation matters represent the anticipated costs (damages and/or settlement amounts) in connection with pending litigation and claims and related anticipated legal fees and other expenses or costs for defending such actions, which legal fees and expenses or costs are expensed as incurred. The costs are accrued when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The accruals are based upon the Company’s assessment, after consultation with counsel (if deemed appropriate), of probable loss based on the facts and circumstances of each case, the legal issues involved, the nature of the claim made, the nature of the damages sought and any relevant information about the plaintiffs and other significant factors that vary by case. When it is not possible to estimate a specific expected cost to be incurred, the Company evaluates the range of probable loss and records the minimum end of the range. Based on currently available information, the Company does not believe that it is reasonably possible that the disposition of any of the legal disputes the Company or its subsidiaries is currently involved in will have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows, except for the CPSC matter discussed below. There is a reasonable possibility of loss from contingencies in excess of the amounts accrued by the Company in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets; however, the actual amounts of such possible losses cannot currently be reasonably estimated by the Company at this time. It is possible that, as additional information becomes available, the impact on the Company could have a different effect.

Product Liability

As a consumer goods manufacturer and distributor, the Company faces the risk of product liability and related lawsuits involving claims for substantial money damages, product recall actions and higher than anticipated rates of warranty returns or other returns of goods. The Company is therefore vulnerable to various personal injury and property damage lawsuits relating to its products and incidental to its business.

Except as disclosed herein, there are no pending product liability claims and lawsuits of the Company, which the Company believes in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, brand reputation, liquidity, stock price, consolidated financial position, results of operations and/or cash flows. See also Part II, Item 1A. “Risk Factors.”.

U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission

In January 2021, Black Diamond Equipment, Ltd. (“BDEL”) wrote to the CPSC outlining its new cradle solution for certain models of its avalanche beacon transceivers to prevent such transceivers from switching unexpectedly out of “send” mode. The proposed new cradle solution was designed to improve transceiver safety by locking the transceiver into “send” mode prior to use so that it would not switch unexpectedly out of “send” mode. BDEL also requested approval for the CPSC Fast-Track Program for a voluntary product recall to implement this cradle solution. The CPSC approved the recall and entered into a Corrective Action Plan agreement with BDEL in March 2021. BDEL received a letter from the CPSC, dated October 28, 2021, stating that the CPSC is investigating whether BDEL has timely complied with the reporting

requirements of Section 15(b) of the Consumer Protection Safety Act and related regulations regarding certain models of avalanche transceivers switching unexpectedly out of “send” mode.

Separately, on April 21, 2022, BDEL filed a Section 15(b) report and applied for Fast-Track consideration for a voluntary recall, consisting of free repair or replacement of such malfunctioning models of avalanche transceivers, which would not switch from “send” mode to “search” mode due to an electronic malfunction in the reed switch or foil. The CPSC approved the recall and entered into a Corrective Action Plan agreement with BDEL in August 2022. BDEL received a letter from the CPSC, dated January 17, 2023, stating that the CPSC is investigating whether BDEL has timely complied with the reporting requirements of Section 15(b) of the Consumer Protection Safety Act and related regulations regarding the malfunction in the reed switch or foil in certain models of avalanche transceivers switching out of “search” mode. BDEL responded to the CPSC’s investigation by letter dated March 31, 2023, accompanied with documents responsive to the CPSC’s requests. The CPSC asked for further clarification and documents, and BDEL sent a responsive letter accompanied by additional documents on June 23, 2023. On September 6, 2023, the CPSC requested further clarification and information regarding the reed switch issue, to which BDEL responded on October 6 and 13, 2023.

By letters dated October 12, 2023 and December 18, 2023, BDEL was notified by the CPSC that the agency staff had concluded BDEL failed to timely meet our statutory reporting obligations under the Consumer Product Safety Act with respect to certain models of BDEL’s avalanche transceivers switching unexpectedly out of “send” mode and certain models of BDEL’s avalanche transceivers not switching from “send” mode into “search” mode, that BDEL made a material misrepresentation in a report to the CPSC, and that the agency staff intends to recommend that the CPSC impose civil monetary penalties of $16,135,000 and $9,000,000, respectively, for the two matters described above.

On November 20, 2023 and February 8, 2024, respectively, BDEL submitted a comprehensive response disputing the CPSC’s findings and conclusions in the October 12, 2023 and December 18, 2023 letters, including the amount of any potential penalties. The CPSC ultimately disagreed with our position and the agency staff has restated their recommendation for the monetary penalties which the Company intends to strongly contest and vigorously defend against.

John C. Walbrecht, the former President of BDEL and the Company, received a letter from the CPSC dated June 25, 2024 alleging that in his personal capacity he knowingly violated the Consumer Product Safety Act by failing to timely report the occurrence resulting in beacons switching unexpectedly out of “send” mode. The staff of the CPSC recommended a $5,000,000 fine against Mr. Walbrecht personally. Pursuant to the Company’s by-laws, the Company has agreed to indemnify Mr. Walbrecht and pay his legal fees, and he has provided an undertaking to the Company that the Company will be entitled to recover those expenses if it is ultimately determined that he was not entitled to indemnification. On August 26, 2024, Mr. Walbrecht’s independent counsel responded to the CPSC, denying the allegations of its June 25 letter and rejecting its demand for a penalty.

Based on currently available information, the Company believes an unfavorable outcome with the CPSC is probable, however, we cannot be sure on what terms this matter will be resolved. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recorded a liability of $2,500,000 representing the low end of the range of our estimated exposure. The Company does not have a better estimate of the loss; therefore the low-end of the range was recorded as an accrued liability during the first quarter of 2024 and a corresponding expense is included in legal costs and regulatory matter expenses in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).
