YETI Reports First Quarter 2025 Results
AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--YETI Holdings, Inc. ('YETI') (NYSE: YETI) today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended March 29, 2025. YETI reports its financial performance in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ('GAAP') and as adjusted on a non-GAAP basis. Please see 'Non-GAAP Financial Measures,' and 'Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Information' below for additional information and reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measures.
First Quarter 2025 Highlights
Net sales increased 3%, including an FX headwind of approximately 100 basis points
EPS increased 11% to $0.20; Adjusted EPS decreased 9% to $0.31, which reflects an FX headwind of approximately $0.02 or 600 basis points of growth
Matt Reintjes, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, 'A strong start to 2025 showcased our growing global brand and broadening product portfolio alongside the operational execution that has been a hallmark of YETI. We exited the first quarter on our full year plan before the significant tariff disruption announced in April. As we now look at the changing macro and consumer environment, we remain confident that our durable balance sheet and strong gross and operating margins will allow us to continue to drive innovation, supply chain transformation and global expansion during this time.'
Mr. Reintjes continued, 'YETI's strong free cash flow generation and balance sheet provides us the flexibility to navigate this highly fluid trade environment. Our strategic supply chain diversification efforts are ahead of plan, and, as previously indicated, we are aggressively diversifying our sourcing out of China. As a result, we expect that by the end of 2025, we will have limited exposure to future goods sourced from China. So that going forward, less than 5% of our total cost of goods will be related to products from China for the U.S. market.'
First Quarter 2025 Results
Sales and adjusted sales both increased 3% to $351.1 million, compared to $341.4 million during the same period last year. The 3% increase in both sales and adjusted sales included an FX headwind of approximately 100 basis points.
Direct-to-consumer ('DTC') channel sales increased 4% to $196.2 million, compared to $187.8 million in the prior year quarter, primarily due to growth in Coolers & Equipment.
Wholesale channel sales increased 1% to $154.9 million, compared to $153.6 million in the same period last year, primarily due to growth in Coolers & Equipment.
Drinkware sales decreased 4% to $205.6 million, compared to $214.6 million in the prior year quarter. Drinkware performance was driven by growth in our international regions that was more than offset by a decline in our U.S. region. Drinkware performance was also impacted by a challenging compare of 13% growth in the prior year quarter, as well as the strategic shift to prioritize supply chain diversification over new innovation during the current year quarter.
Coolers & Equipment sales increased 17% to $140.2 million, compared to $119.9 million in the same period last year, due to growth in both our U.S. and international regions, driven by strong performance in bags and hard coolers.
Sales in the U.S. decreased 2% to $271.3 million, compared to $275.8 million in the prior year quarter. International sales increased 22% to $79.9 million, compared to $65.6 million in the prior year quarter. The 22% increase in international sales included an FX headwind of approximately 500 basis points.
Gross profit increased 4% to $201.7 million, or 57.4% of sales, compared to $194.8 million, or 57.1% of sales, in the first quarter of 2024. The 30 basis points increase in gross margin was primarily due to lower product costs and the absence in the current year quarter of purchase accounting inventory step-up amortization, partially offset by lower mix of our Drinkware category and the unfavorable impact of foreign currency exchange rates.
Adjusted gross profit increased 3% to $201.3 million, or 57.3% of adjusted sales, compared to $196.4 million, or 57.5% of adjusted sales, in the first quarter of 2024. The 20 basis points decrease in adjusted gross margin was primarily due to lower mix of our Drinkware category and the unfavorable impact of foreign currency exchange rates, partially offset by lower product costs.
Selling, general, and administrative ('SG&A') expenses increased 7% to $180.1 million, compared to $169.0 million in the first quarter of 2024. As a percentage of sales, SG&A expenses increased 180 basis points to 51.3% from 49.5% in the prior year period. This increase was primarily due to higher general and administrative expenses and higher employee costs, including investments in headcount to support future growth.
Adjusted SG&A expenses increased 6% to $166.2 million, compared to $156.8 million in the first quarter of 2024. As a percentage of adjusted sales, adjusted SG&A expenses increased 140 basis points to 47.3% from 45.9% in the prior year period. This increase was primarily due to higher general and administrative expenses and higher employee costs, including investments in headcount to support future growth.
Operating income decreased 16% to $21.7 million, or 6.2% of sales, compared to $25.8 million, or 7.6% of sales during the prior year quarter.
Adjusted operating income decreased 11% to $35.2 million, or 10.0% of adjusted sales, compared to $39.6 million, or 11.6% of adjusted sales during the same period last year. The 11% decrease in adjusted operating income included an FX headwind of approximately 600 basis points.
Other income of $1.4 million compared to other expense of $4.1 million in the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to unrealized foreign currency gains related to intercompany balances in the current year quarter versus foreign currency losses on intercompany balances in the prior year quarter.
Net income increased 5% to $16.6 million, or 4.7% of sales, compared to $15.9 million, or 4.6% of sales in the prior year quarter; Net income per diluted share increased 11% to $0.20, compared to $0.18 in the prior year quarter.
Adjusted net income decreased 12% to $25.8 million, or 7.3% of adjusted sales, compared to $29.3 million, or 8.6% of adjusted sales in the prior year quarter; Adjusted net income per diluted share decreased 9% to $0.31, compared to $0.34 per diluted share in the prior year quarter. Adjusted net income per diluted share included an FX headwind of approximately $0.02 or 600 basis points of growth.
Balance Sheet and Other Highlights
Cash was $259.0 million, compared to $173.9 million at the end of the first quarter of 2024.
Inventory decreased 9% to $330.5 million, compared to $363.9 million at the end of the prior year quarter.
Total debt, excluding finance leases and unamortized deferred financing fees, was $77.0 million, compared to $81.2 million at the end of first quarter of 2024.
Updating 2025 Outlook In Response to Tariff Impacts
Mr. Reintjes continued, 'Our updated full year outlook reflects both our confidence in the business and our current assessment of anticipated headwinds this year, including the projected impact of tariffs and supply disruptions. Absent the tariffs, we believe YETI was set up for a strong year of delivering against our full year plan. In light of this, the focus still remains on our strategic priorities of growing the brand globally and driving innovation all supported by consistent operational discipline.
Despite a more complex macro environment than we faced at the start of the year, we remain focused on execution and positioning YETI for long-term, sustainable growth by accelerating the pace of product innovation and materially transforming our supply chain to reduce reliance on China, while maintaining strong operating discipline to protect our fortress balance sheet. Alongside the strength of our balance sheet, our ability to generate cash is intact, even with the disruption from expected tariff impacts. We believe these factors, along with the durability of our brand, will enable us to successfully navigate 2025 and emerge even stronger in 2026.'
For Fiscal 2025, a 53-week period, compared to a 52-week period in Fiscal 2024, YETI expects:
Adjusted sales to increase between 1% and 4% (versus previous outlook of between 5% and 7%). The reduction in our adjusted sales outlook includes an approximately 300 basis point impact, primarily related to inventory supply disruptions in connection with the acceleration of our supply chain diversification efforts;
Adjusted operating income as a percentage of adjusted sales of approximately 12.0% (versus previous outlook of 16.9%). This outlook reflects an approximate 450 basis point impact from higher tariff costs, and is inclusive of our ongoing mitigation efforts;
An effective tax rate of approximately 26.0% (versus previous outlook of 24.5%; compared to 24.5% in the prior year period);
Adjusted net income per diluted share between $1.96 and $2.02 (versus previous outlook of between $2.90 and $2.95). This outlook reflects the impact of higher tariff costs, as well as the impact of lower topline related to inventory supply disruptions;
Diluted weighted average shares outstanding of approximately 83.7 million (versus previous outlook of 84.3 million);
Capital expenditures of approximately $60 million (versus previous outlook of between $60 million and $70 million), primarily to support investments in technology, new product innovation, and our supply chain; and
Free cash flow between $100 million and $125 million (versus previous outlook of $200 million). The decrease from our previous outlook reflects the impact on our topline from supply chain disruption, as well as higher tariff costs.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to our results determined in accordance with GAAP, we supplement our results with non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted net sales, adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin, adjusted SG&A expenses, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted share (which we also refer to as adjusted EPS), free cash flow as well as adjusted gross profit, adjusted SG&A expenses, adjusted operating income and adjusted net income as a percentage of adjusted net sales.
Our management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with GAAP financial measures to measure our profitability and to evaluate our financial performance. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the underlying operating performance of our business and are appropriate to enhance an overall understanding of our financial performance. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with our results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. Because of these limitations, these non-GAAP financial measures should be considered along with GAAP financial performance measures. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to such GAAP measures can be found below.
YETI does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP to GAAP financial measures because such reconciliations are not available without unreasonable efforts. This is due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting with reasonable certainty certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation, including in particular the impacts of product recalls and realized and unrealized foreign currency gains and losses reported within other expense. For the same reasons, we are unable to forecast with reasonable certainty all deductions and additions needed in order to provide a forward-looking GAAP financial measures at this time. The amount of these deductions and additions may be material and, therefore, could result in forward-looking GAAP financial measures being materially different or less than forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures. See 'Forward-looking statements' below.
