BRP Stock Climbs After Q4 Earnings Top Estimates, Outlook Held Back Amid Trade Uncertainty
BRP Inc. (NASDAQ:DOOO) shares traded higher on Wednesday after the company reported fourth-quarter results.
The company reported a revenue decrease of 19.7% year-over-year to C$2.098 billion. In USD, revenues of $1.48 billion beat the street view of $1.35 billion.
Adjusted EPS of C$0.98 declined C$1.80 per share from the year-ago quarter. In USD, adjusted EPS was $0.69 above the consensus of $0.62.
The revenue decline was primarily due to lower sales volume across all product lines on weak demand and increasing sales programs.
North American retail sales dipped 21% Y/Y owing to weak industry volumes in Snowmobile and market share loss in Off-Road Vehicles on high non-current inventory from other OEMs.
Year-Round Products (54% of sales) revenues decreased 17.4% Y/Y to C$1.13 billion, primarily due to lower sales volume, unfavourable product mix in SSV and higher sales programs.
Seasonal Products (32% of sales) revenues dropped 28.9% Y/Y to C$677.6 million.
Powersports PA&A and OEM Engines (14% of sales) revenues declined 0.7% Y/Y to C$292.9 million, attributed to lower demand.
Gross profit decreased by 35.0% Y/Y, to C$429.4 million, and the margin contracted by 480 bps to 20.5%.
Normalized EBITDA decreased 44.6% Y/Y to C$239.8 million, reflecting lower gross margin.
BRP generated C$740.1 million in net operating cash flows for the year, down from C$1.658 billion a year earlier, due to lower profitability and unfavorable working capital changes.
On March 25, 2025, the company declared a quarterly dividend of C$0.215 per share, payable on April 18, 2025, to shareholders of record at the close of business on April 4, 2025.
Outlook: BRP decided to defer providing FY26 guidance, owing to ongoing global tariff disputes and uncertainty related to potential changes to trade regulations.
José Boisjoli, President and CEO of BRP said, 'BRP demonstrated its agility throughout fiscal 2025 by rapidly adapting to softer market conditions. We were the first OEM to proactively adjust shipments to reduce network inventory and we have achieved our objective.'
'Over the longer term, our strategic decision to double down on Powersports should allow us to solidify our industry leadership by pushing innovation further and capitalizing on growth opportunities.'
Price Action: DOOO shares are up 8.81% at $38.67 at the last check Wednesday.

Leveraged Bitcoin Longs on Bitfinex Weakest Since December and It Could Mean Rally Time
Those who have followed financial markets for some time may have heard of contrary indicators. These metrics are often misleading at first glance – some appear positive but tend to signal a market downtrend, while others that seem negative mark price upswings. One such contrary indicator is leveraged bitcoin longs on the crypto exchange Bitfinex. Historically, the number of leveraged longs on the exchange has tended to slide during bull runs and rise during bearish trends. As of writing, the number of BTCUSD longs on Bitfinex had fallen to 47,691, the lowest since December, offering bullish cues for bitcoin, according to data source TradingView. The tally of longs peaked in the first half of April and has been declining since then, characterizing BTC's rapid recovery from around $75K to record highs of over $110K. "When Bitfinex Long Positions rise, the price tends to fall. When Long Positions drop, the price usually goes up," crypto analytics firm Alphractal said on X. Explaining the conundrum, Alphractal said that traders are typically wrong about the market direction. That leads to forced or discretionary liquidations, which drive the price in the opposite direction. "As long as Bitfinex Long Positions keep dropping, Bitcoin will continue to rise," João Wedson, CEO of Alphractal, noted. The chart shows the contrary nature of the BTCUSD longs on Bitfinex. Since 2021, every major BTC rally, including those seen in November-December last year and the latest one from early April lows, has coincided with the slide in BTCUSD longs on the exchange. On the other hand, BTC's bear trends, including the 2022 crash and the decline from $100K to $75K seen early this year, occurred as BTC/USD longs surged.
