Garmin Ltd. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

March 28, 2026

(In thousands, except per share information)

 

1. Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Garmin Ltd. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, we, our, us, the Company or Garmin). Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are normal and recurring in nature, necessary for fair financial statement presentation. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 27, 2025 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. Additionally, the condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with Part I, Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of this Form 10-Q, and the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 27, 2025.

 

The Company's operating results are subject to fluctuations associated with seasonal demand for consumer products, the timing of new product introductions, and original equipment manufacturer (OEM) customer production schedules. Therefore, operating results for the 13-week period ended March 28, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 26, 2026.

 

The Company’s fiscal year is based on a 52-week or 53-week period ending on the last Saturday of the calendar year. Therefore, the financial results of certain 53-week fiscal years, and the associated 14-week quarters, will not be exactly comparable to the prior and subsequent 52-week fiscal years and the associated 13-week quarters. The quarters ended March 28, 2026 and March 29, 2025 both contain operating results for 13 weeks.

 

Significant Accounting Policies

For a description of the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements, refer to Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2025. There were no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies during the 13-week period ended March 28, 2026.

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

 

There are no recently adopted accounting standards that have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements, accounting policies, processes, or systems.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses

 

In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2024-03, Income Statement–Reporting Comprehensive Income–Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses ("ASU 2024-03"), which requires additional disaggregated disclosures in the notes to financial statements for certain categories of expenses that are included in the expense captions on the face of the statements of income, on an interim and annual basis. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The amendments may be applied using either a prospective or retrospective approach. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the updated standard will have on its financial statement disclosures.

2. Revenue

 

In order to further depict how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of the Company's revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors, Garmin disaggregates revenue (or “net sales”) by geographic region, major product category, and pattern of recognition.

Disaggregated revenue by geographic region (Americas, EMEA, and APAC) is presented in Note 11 – Segment Information and Geographic Data. Note 11 also contains disaggregated revenue information of the five major product categories identified by the Company (fitness, outdoor, aviation, marine, and auto OEM), which also represent the Company’s operating segments.

A large majority of the Company’s revenue is recognized on a point in time basis, usually once the product is shipped and title and risk of loss have transferred to the customer. Revenue recognized over time is primarily within the outdoor, aviation, and auto OEM segments and relates to performance obligations that are satisfied over the estimated life of the product or contractual service period. Revenue disaggregated by pattern of recognition, based on the timing of transfer of the goods or services, is presented in the table below:

Transaction price and costs associated with the Company’s unsatisfied performance obligations are reflected as deferred revenue and deferred costs, respectively, on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. Such amounts are recognized ratably over the applicable estimated useful life or contractual service period. Changes in deferred revenue and costs during the 13-week period ended March 28, 2026 are presented below:

(1) Deferred revenue is comprised of both deferred revenue and noncurrent deferred revenue per the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

 

(2) Deferred costs are comprised of both deferred costs and noncurrent deferred costs per the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Of the $84,351 of deferred revenue recognized in the 13-week period ended March 28, 2026, approximately $34,000 was deferred as of the beginning of the period. Of the $123,373 of deferred revenue as of March 28, 2026, the Company expects to recognize approximately 87% ratably over a total period of three years or less.

3. Earnings Per Share

 

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net income per share. Stock options, stock appreciation rights, and restricted stock units are collectively referred to as “equity awards”. There were no anti-dilutive equity awards excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share for the periods presented below.

4. Marketable Securities

 

Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The accounting guidance classifies the inputs used to measure fair value into the following hierarchy:

 

 

Level 1

Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for the identical asset or liability

 

 

Level 2

Observable inputs for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability

 

 

Level 3

Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability

 

The Company endeavors to utilize the best available information in measuring fair value. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation is based on prices obtained from an independent pricing vendor using both market and income approaches. The primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, contractual cash flows, benchmark yields, and credit spreads.

 

The method described above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while the Company believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date.

The primary objectives of the Company’s investment policy are to preserve capital, maintain an acceptable degree of liquidity, and maximize yield within the constraint of low credit risk. The fair value of securities varies from period to period due to changes in interest rates, the performance of the underlying collateral, and the credit performance of the underlying issuer, among other factors.

 

Accrued interest receivable, which totaled $22,043 as of March 28, 2026, is excluded from both the fair value and amortized cost basis of available-for-sale securities and is included within prepaid expenses and other current assets on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company writes off impaired accrued interest on a timely basis, generally within 30 days of the due date, by reversing interest income. No accrued interest was written off during the 13-week period ended March 28, 2026.

 

The Company recognizes impairments relating to credit losses of available-for-sale securities through an allowance for credit losses and other income (expense) on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of income. Impairment not relating to credit losses is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method. Approximately 68% of securities in the Company’s portfolio were at an unrealized loss position as of March 28, 2026.

As of March 28, 2026 and December 27, 2025, the Company had not recognized an allowance for credit losses on any securities in an unrealized loss position.

 

The Company has not recorded an allowance for credit losses and charge to other income (expense) for the unrealized losses on U.S. Treasury, agency, mortgage-backed, corporate debt, municipal, and other securities presented above because the Company does not consider the declines in fair value to have resulted from credit losses. The Company has not observed a significant deterioration in credit quality of these securities, which are highly rated with moderate to low credit risk. Declines in value are largely attributable to current global economic conditions. The securities continue to make timely principal and interest payments, and the fair values are expected to recover as they approach maturity. Management does not intend to sell the securities, nor is it more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the securities, before the respective recoveries of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity.

 

The amortized cost and fair value of marketable securities at March 28, 2026, by maturity, are shown below.

7. Warranty Reserves

The Company accrues for estimated future warranty costs at the time products are sold. The Company provides standard warranties to its retail partners and end-users. The standard warranty generally provides for products to be free from defects in materials or workmanship, and the warranty period is generally one to two years from the date of shipment, while certain aviation, marine, and auto OEM products have a standard warranty period of two years or more from the date of installation. The Company’s estimates of costs to service its warranty obligations are based on historical experience and management’s expectations and judgments of future conditions, with most claims resolved within a year of the sale. The following reconciliation presents details of the changes in the Company's accrued warranty costs:

8. Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments

The Company is party to certain commitments that require the future purchase of goods or services (“unconditional purchase obligations”). The Company’s unconditional purchase obligations primarily consist of payments for inventory, capital expenditures, and other indirect purchases in connection with conducting its business. The aggregate amount of purchase orders and other commitments open as of March 28, 2026 that may represent noncancelable unconditional purchase obligations having a remaining term in excess of one year was approximately $505,000.

 

Certain cash balances are held as collateral in relation to bank guarantees. This restricted cash is reported within other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and totaled $723 and $714 on March 28, 2026 and December 27, 2025, respectively. The total of the cash and cash equivalents balance and the restricted cash reported within other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets equals the total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash shown in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

Contingencies

Management of the Company currently does not believe it is reasonably possible that the Company may have incurred a material loss, or a material loss in excess of recorded accruals, with respect to loss contingencies in the aggregate, for the fiscal quarter ended March 28, 2026. The results of legal proceedings, investigations and claims, however, cannot be predicted with certainty. An adverse resolution of one or more of such matters in excess of management’s expectations could have a material adverse effect in the particular quarter or fiscal year in which a loss is recorded, but based on information currently known, the Company does not believe it is likely that losses from such matters would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business or its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

11


 

The Company settled or resolved certain matters during the 13-week period ended March 28, 2026 that did not individually or in the aggregate have a material impact on the Company’s business or its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

9. Stockholders' Equity

 

Dividends

 

Under Swiss corporate law, dividends must be approved by shareholders at the annual general meeting of the Company’s shareholders. Approved dividends are payable in four equal installments on dates determined by the Board of Directors. A reduction of retained earnings and a corresponding liability are recorded at the time of shareholder approval and are periodically adjusted based on the number of applicable shares outstanding.

Share Repurchase Program

 

On February 16, 2024, the Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program (the “2024 Program”) authorizing the Company to repurchase up to $300,000 of the common shares of Garmin Ltd., exclusive of the cost of any associated excise tax. The 2024 Program, which had an expiration date of December 26, 2026, was terminated early on February 19, 2026. Share repurchases could be made in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, including under plans complying with the provisions of Rule 10b5-1 and Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The timing and volume of share repurchases were subject to market conditions, business conditions and applicable laws, and were at management’s discretion. The 2024 Program did not require the purchase of any minimum number of shares. As of the date of termination, the Company had repurchased 1,375 shares for $274,626 under the 2024 Program.

 

On February 13, 2026, the Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase program (the 2026 “Program”), which was effective beginning on February 20, 2026 and authorizes the Company to repurchase up to $500,000 of the common shares of Garmin Ltd. Share repurchases may be made in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, including under plans complying with the provisions of Rule 10b5-1 and Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The timing and volume of share repurchases are subject to market conditions, business conditions and applicable laws, and are at management’s discretion. The 2026 Program does not require the purchase of any minimum number of shares and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. The 2026 Program expires on December 28, 2028. As of March 28, 2026, the Company had repurchased 38 shares for $8,889, leaving $491,111 available to repurchase additional shares under the 2026 Program.

11. Segment Information and Geographic Data

Garmin is organized in the five operating segments of fitness, outdoor, aviation, marine, and auto OEM, which represent the primary markets served by the Company. These operating segments are also the Company's reportable segments.

 

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer, who has been identified as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), uses operating income (loss) as the primary measure of profit or loss to assess segment performance. Operating income (loss) represents net sales less costs of goods sold and operating expenses. Net sales are directly attributed to each segment. Most costs of goods sold and the majority of operating expenses are also directly attributed to each segment, while certain other costs of goods sold and operating expenses are allocated to the segments in a reasonable manner considering the specific facts and circumstances of the expenses being allocated. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 1 - Accounting Policies. There are no inter-segment sales or transfers.

The Company’s segments share many common resources, infrastructures and assets in the normal course of business, and certain assets are therefore not separately tracked by segment. Thus, the Company does not report accounts receivable, inventories, property and equipment, intangible assets, capital expenditures, depreciation expense, or amortization expense by segment to the CODM.

The CODM utilizes operating income (loss) to assess segment performance and make decisions about the allocation of operating and capital resources by analyzing future opportunities and recent operating income (loss) results, trends, and variances of each segment in relation to forecasts and historical performance.

 

Net sales, cost of goods sold, gross profit, significant segment expenses, and operating income (loss) for each of the Company’s five reportable segments are presented below.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

The discussion set forth below, as well as other portions of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, contain statements concerning potential future events. Such forward-looking statements are based upon assumptions by management, as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including assumptions about risks and uncertainties faced by the Company. Readers can identify these forward-looking statements by their use of such words as "future", "expects", "anticipates", "believes", “estimates”, “would”, “could”, “can”, “may,” or other similar words or other comparable terms. If any of the Company’s assumptions prove incorrect or should unanticipated circumstances arise, actual results could materially differ from those anticipated by such forward-looking statements. The differences could be caused by a number of factors or combination of factors including, but not limited to, those factors identified in Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 27, 2025. Readers are strongly encouraged to consider those factors when evaluating any forward-looking statement concerning the Company. These forward-looking statements are made as of the date hereof, and the Company disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to reflect future events or developments, except as required by law.

 

The information contained in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the audited financial statements and notes thereto in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 27, 2025. Unless the context otherwise requires, references in this document to "we", "us", "our", the "Company" and similar terms refer to Garmin Ltd. and its subsidiaries.

 

Unless otherwise indicated, amounts set forth in the discussion below are in thousands.

 

Company Overview

 

The Company is a leading worldwide provider of wireless devices, many of which feature location technology such as Global Positioning System (GPS), and applications that are designed for people who live an active lifestyle. Garmin is organized in the five operating segments of fitness, outdoor, aviation, marine, and auto OEM, which represent the primary markets served by the Company. Garmin designs, develops, manufactures, markets, and distributes a diverse family of GPS-enabled products and other navigation, communications, sensor-based and information products and services for these markets, as well as products installed by original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and for aftermarket applications. Garmin products are sold through a variety of indirect distribution channels, including a large worldwide network of independent retailers, dealers, distributors, installation and repair shops, and OEMs. Garmin also sells its products and services directly through the Garmin online webshop (garmin.com), subscriptions for connected services, and Garmin retail stores.

 

Business Environment Update

 

Global economic and geopolitical conditions impact our operations and financial results, although we believe our vertically integrated and diversified business model enables us to be resilient and flexible in a dynamic business environment. Foreign currency fluctuations and rapidly changing global trade policies, particularly those affecting the United States (“U.S.”), increase the economic and operational uncertainties that could significantly impact our business and results of operations. On February 20, 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (“IEEPA”) were unauthorized. As of March 28, 2026, we had not recognized a benefit or receivable related to any potential refund related to previously paid IEEPA tariffs.

 

Refer to Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of this Quarterly Report for further discussion of the risks and uncertainties facing our Company.

Total unit sales in the first quarter of 2026 increased by approximately 9% to 4,765 when compared to total unit sales of 4,362 in the first quarter of 2025, which differs from the percent increase in revenue primarily due to shifts in segment and product mix. Fitness was the largest portion of our revenue mix in the first quarter of 2026 at 31%, while outdoor was the largest portion of our revenue mix in the first quarter of 2025 at 29%.

 

The increase in fitness revenue was driven by growth across all product categories, led by strong demand for advanced wearables. The increase in aviation revenue was driven by sales growth in OEM and aftermarket product categories. The increase in marine revenue was driven by sales growth across multiple product categories. The increase in auto OEM revenue was primarily driven by growth in infotainment programs. Outdoor revenue decreased primarily due to the adventure watch product category comparing against a strong prior year product launch.

Gross profit dollars in the first quarter of 2026 increased 18%, primarily due to the increase in net sales when compared to the year-ago quarter, as described above. Consolidated gross margin as a percent of net sales increased 180 basis points when compared to the year-ago quarter, primarily due to favorable foreign currency impacts on sales.

 

The fitness and outdoor gross margin percentage increases of 470 basis points and 210 basis points, respectively, were primarily attributable to favorable foreign currency impacts on sales when compared to the year-ago quarter. Gross margin remained relatively flat within the aviation and auto OEM segments when compared to the year-ago quarter. The marine gross margin percentage decrease of 200 basis points when compared to the year-ago quarter was primarily attributable to higher tariff costs.

Total operating expense in the first quarter of 2026 increased 11% in absolute dollars and decreased 110 basis points as a percent of revenue when compared to the year-ago quarter. Operating expense, as a percent of segment net sales, decreased in the fitness, aviation, and auto OEM segments by 390 basis points, 570 basis points, and 90 basis points, respectively, when compared to the year-ago quarter primarily due to increased sales and greater leverage of expenses. Operating expense, as a percent of segment net sales, remained relatively flat in the marine segment when compared to the year-ago quarter. Operating expense, as a percent of segment net sales, increased in the outdoor segment by 300 basis points when compared to the year-ago quarter as decreased sales and increased expenses were partially offset by improved gross margin percentage.

 

Research and development expense increased 10% in absolute dollars when compared to the year-ago quarter. The absolute dollar expense increase was primarily due to higher engineering personnel-related expenses.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 11% in absolute dollars when compared to the year-ago quarter. The absolute dollar expense increase was primarily due to higher personnel-related expenses.

Total operating income in the first quarter of 2026 increased 30% in absolute dollars and increased 290 basis points as a percent of revenue when compared to the year-ago quarter. The increase in operating income as a percent of revenue was driven by increased sales, gross margin improvements and lower operating expenses as a percent of revenue, as described above. The improved operating income dollar performance in fitness, aviation, marine and auto OEM was partially offset by the decrease in outdoor.

Foreign currency gains and losses for the Company are driven by movements of a number of currencies in relation to the U.S. Dollar. The Taiwan Dollar is the functional currency of Garmin Corporation, the Euro is the functional currency of several subsidiaries, and the U.S. Dollar is the functional currency of Garmin (Europe) Ltd., although some transactions and balances are denominated in British Pounds. Other notable currency exposures include the Polish Zloty and Swiss Franc. The majority of the Company’s consolidated foreign currency gain or loss is typically driven by the significant cash, receivables and payables held in a currency other than the functional currency at a given legal entity.

The $3.1 million currency gain recognized in the first quarter of 2026 was primarily due to the U.S. Dollar strengthening against the Taiwan Dollar and the Swiss Franc, partially offset by the U.S. Dollar strengthening against the Euro, within the 13-week period ended March 28, 2026. During this period, the U.S. Dollar strengthened 2.0% against the Taiwan Dollar and 1.0% against the Swiss Franc, resulting in gains of $11.2 million and $3.4 million, respectively, while the U.S. Dollar strengthened 2.2% against the Euro, resulting in a loss of $10.8 million. The remaining net currency loss of $0.7 million was related to the impacts of other currencies, each of which was individually immaterial.

 

The $24.8 million currency gain recognized in the first quarter of 2025 was primarily due to the U.S. Dollar weakening against the Euro and Polish Zloty, and strengthening against the Taiwan Dollar, within the 13-week period ended March 29, 2025. During this period, the U.S. Dollar weakened 3.8% against the Euro, 5.6% against the Polish Zloty, and strengthened 1.1% against the Taiwan Dollar, resulting in gains of $12.6 million, $3.2 million, and $6.0 million, respectively. The remaining net currency gain of $3.0 million was related to the impacts of other currencies, each of which was individually immaterial.

 

Income Tax Provision

 

The Company recorded income tax expense of $67.5 million in the 13-week period ended March 28, 2026, compared to income tax expense of $56.3 million in the 13-week period ended March 29, 2025. The effective tax rate was 14.3% in the first quarter of 2026, which is comparable to 14.5% in the first quarter of 2025.

 

Net Income

As a result of the above, net income for the 13-week period ended March 28, 2026 was $405.1 million compared to $332.8 million for the 13-week period ended March 29, 2025, an increase of $72.3 million.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We primarily use cash flow from operations, and expect that future cash requirements may be used, to fund our capital expenditures, support our working capital requirements, pay dividends, fund share repurchases, and fund strategic acquisitions. We believe that our existing cash balances and cash flow from operations will be sufficient to meet our short- and long-term projected working capital needs, capital expenditures, and other cash requirements.

 

Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Marketable Securities

 

As of March 28, 2026, we had approximately $4.3 billion of cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities. Management invests idle or surplus cash in accordance with the Company's investment policy, which has been approved by the Company’s Board of Directors. The investment policy’s primary objectives are to preserve capital, maintain an acceptable degree of liquidity, and maximize yield within the constraint of low credit risk. Garmin’s average interest rate returns on cash and investments during the first quarter of 2026 and 2025 were 3.3% and 3.2%, respectively. The fair value of our securities varies from period to period due to changes in interest rates, in the performance of the underlying collateral, and in the credit performance of the underlying issuer, among other factors. See Note 4 – Marketable Securities in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding marketable securities.

 

Cash Flows

 

Cash provided by operating activities totaled $536.0 million for the first quarter of 2026, compared to $420.8 million for the first quarter of 2025. The increase in cash received from customers primarily driven by higher net sales was partially offset by increases in cash paid for cost of goods sold and operating expenses, and an increase in cash paid for taxes in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025.

 

18


 

Cash used in investing activities totaled $252.4 million for the first quarter of 2026, compared to $132.6 million for the first quarter of 2025. The increase was primarily due to an increase in net purchases of marketable securities and an increase in purchases of property and equipment in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025.

 

Cash used in financing activities totaled $260.1 million for the first quarter of 2026, compared to $204.8 million for the first quarter of 2025. This increase was primarily due to higher cash dividend payments, an increase in the purchase of treasury shares related to equity awards, and higher purchases of treasury shares under share repurchase plans in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025.

 

Use of Cash

 

Operating Leases

 

The Company has lease arrangements for certain real estate properties, vehicles, and equipment. Leased properties are typically used for office space, distribution, data centers, and retail. As of March 28, 2026, the Company had fixed lease payment obligations of $242.6 million, with $48.5 million payable within 12 months.

 

Inventory Purchase Obligations

 

The Company obtains various raw materials and components for its products from a variety of third party suppliers. The Company’s inventory purchase obligations are primarily noncancelable commitments. As of March 28, 2026, the Company had inventory purchase obligations of $1,116.1 million, with $862.5 million payable within 12 months.

 

Other Purchase Obligations

 

The Company’s other purchase obligations primarily consist of noncancelable commitments for capital expenditures and other indirect purchases in connection with conducting our business. As of March 28, 2026, the Company had other purchase obligations of $634.9 million, with $342.8 million payable within 12 months.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

General

Our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The presentation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to customer sales programs and incentives, product returns, bad debts, inventories, investments, intangible assets, income taxes, warranty obligations, and contingencies and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

 

For a description of the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements, refer to Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8 and “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” in Part II, Item 7 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2025. There were no significant changes to the Company’s critical accounting policies and estimates in the 13-week period ended March 28, 2026.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

There are numerous market risks that can affect our future business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part II, Item 7A, "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2025. There have been no material changes during the 13-week period ended March 28, 2026 in the risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K related to market sensitivity, inflation, foreign currency exchange rate risk and interest rate risk.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. The Company maintains a system of disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information, which is required to be timely disclosed, is accumulated and communicated to management in a timely fashion. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. As of March 28, 2026, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded as of March 28, 2026 that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the information relating to the Company, required to be disclosed in our Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting. There has been no change in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s fiscal quarter ended March 28, 2026 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Part II - Other Information

In the normal course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries are parties to various legal claims, actions, and complaints, including matters involving patent infringement, other intellectual property, product liability, customer claims and various other risks. It is not possible to predict with certainty whether or not the Company and its subsidiaries will ultimately be successful in any of these legal matters, or if not, what the impact might be. However, the Company’s management does not expect that the results in any of these legal proceedings will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations, financial position or cash flows. For additional information, see Note 8, "Commitments and Contingencies" in the above Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Part I, Item 3, “Legal Proceedings” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2025.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There are many risks and uncertainties that can affect our future business, financial performance or share price. In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2025. There have been no material changes during the 13-week period ended March 28, 2026 in the risks presented in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2025. These risks, however, are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties, including those not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial, also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.

Meetings; Attendance; Quorum; Resolutions and Minutes

 

The Chairman or the Vice-Chairman if the Board has appointed a Vice Chairman, may call a meeting of the Board whenever the Chairman or Vice Chairman (if applicable) deems it appropriate or necessary. The Board shall meet as often as business demands, but there shall be at least four (4) regularly scheduled meetings per year.

 

A meeting of the Board may also be convened upon the request of any Director. Such request shall be made to the Chairman in writing (including by electronic mail) and include the reasons for requesting the Board meeting.

The notice of the meeting shall be made at least five (5) working days before the date of the meeting and the agenda and documentation related to the meeting shall be provided to each

 


 

Director reasonably in advance of the meeting, provided that under urgent circumstances the notice period may be less than five (5) working days.

Meetings of the Board may be held by way of video conference, telephone conference, or in person, or by any combination of those means, provided that all participating Directors may hear and be heard during the meeting.

A quorum of the Board is not required for resolutions at meetings convened only in relation to changes in the share capital or the currency of the share capital of the Company and corresponding amendments to the Company’s Articles of Association (including resolutions to delete capital-related provisions from the Articles of Association after their expiry, to the extent legally permissible) and to adopt a report on a capital increase.

 

The Board adopts its resolutions by the approval of a majority of the votes cast, and in case of a tie the Chairman, or the acting chairman of the meeting in the Chairman’s absence, shall have a second or casting vote.

 

Resolutions of the Board may be adopted by way of written consent (including by email or similar electronic or digital means) of all of the Directors, provided no Director has demanded an oral consultation. Such resolutions shall be as valid and effectual as if they had been adopted at a meeting of the Board.

 

The Board shall cause minutes to be made for the purpose of recording the proceedings at all of the meetings of the Board. The minutes shall be signed (including by electronic means) by the Chairman or acting chairman of the meeting in the Chairman’s absence, and by the Secretary.
