Insights

Financial Analyst

YETI's Q2 2024 results showcase strong performance and positive momentum. Net sales increased 15% to $463.5 million, with adjusted net sales up 9%. The company's gross margin expanded 360 basis points to 57.0%, while EPS grew 34% to $0.59.

Key highlights include:

• Coolers & Equipment adjusted net sales up 14%
• International adjusted net sales surged 34%
• Operating margin expanded 200 basis points to 14.5%

YETI's raised full-year outlook, projecting adjusted sales growth of 8-10% and adjusted EPS of $2.61-$2.65, signals confidence in sustained growth. The company's strong cash position ($212.9 million) and strategic focus on innovation and global expansion bode well for future performance.

Market Research Analyst

YETI's Q2 results reflect robust consumer demand and effective market positioning. The 31% growth in Coolers & Equipment sales indicates strong seasonal demand and successful product innovation. The 35% increase in international sales highlights YETI's expanding global footprint and brand appeal beyond its core U.S. market.

The company's strategy of broadening product offerings and engaging diverse consumer communities is paying off. The continued growth in both wholesale (21% increase) and direct-to-consumer (11% increase) channels demonstrates YETI's omnichannel strength.

YETI's focus on premium cookware expansion and global supply chain diversification suggests a forward-looking approach to market opportunities and operational efficiency. These initiatives, coupled with strong brand momentum, position YETI well for continued growth in the outdoor and lifestyle product markets.

Supply Chain Expert

YETI's Q2 results reveal significant improvements in supply chain efficiency and cost management. The 280 basis point increase in adjusted gross margin to 57.7% is primarily attributed to lower inbound freight costs and reduced product costs. This indicates successful navigation of recent supply chain challenges and effective cost optimization strategies.

The 17% increase in inventory to $378.3 million is strategic, supporting the re-stocking of soft coolers and the integration of Mystery Ranch acquisition inventory. This proactive inventory management should help YETI meet anticipated demand and mitigate potential supply disruptions.

YETI's focus on broadening its global supply footprint is a prudent move to enhance supply chain resilience and potentially reduce costs further. This strategy, combined with the company's strong cash position, provides flexibility to adapt to market changes and pursue growth opportunities.

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 SG&A expenses, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted share (which we also refer to as adjusted EPS) as well as adjusted gross profit and 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 impact of the 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.
