    - Q3 Net Sales of $129.0 Million
    - Q3 Gross Margin of 32.4%; Non-GAAP Gross Margin of 32.7%
    - Q3 EPS of $0.24/Share; Q3 Adjusted EBITDAS Margin of 18.4%

    Springfield, Massachusetts--(Newsfile Corp. - March 9, 2023) - Smith & Wesson Brands, Inc. (NASDAQ:SWBI), a U.S.-based leader in firearm manufacturing and design, today announced financial results for the third quarter fiscal year 2023, ended January 31, 2023.

    Third Quarter Fiscal 2023 Financial Highlights

    • Net sales were $129.0 million, a decrease of $48.7 million, or 27.4%, from the comparable quarter last year, but $1.6 million, or 1.3%, higher than the comparable quarter in fiscal 2020, which was the last pre-pandemic comparable third quarter.

    • Gross margin was 32.4% compared with 39.6% in the comparable quarter last year and 28.0% in the comparable quarter in fiscal 2020.

    • GAAP net income was $11.1 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, compared with $30.5 million, or $0.65 per diluted share, for the comparable quarter last year, and $4.2 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, for the comparable quarter in fiscal 2020.

    • Non-GAAP net income was $11.6 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, compared with $32.9 million, or $0.70 per diluted share, for the comparable quarter last year, and with $2.2 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, for the comparable quarter in fiscal 2020. For a detailed reconciliation, see the schedules that follow in this release.

    • Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDAS was $23.7 million, or 18.4% of net sales, compared with $51.9 million, or 29.2% of net sales, for the comparable quarter last year, and $15.0 million, or 11.8% of net sales, for the comparable quarter in fiscal 2020.

    Mark Smith, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "We are extremely pleased with our third quarter performance, with our top-line increasing sequentially, and above the comparable pre-pandemic quarter in fiscal 2020, and our bottom-line results continuing to show dramatic improvement over pre-pandemic levels. Our results reflect the work our team has done to capitalize on the opportunity afforded by our flexible manufacturing model during the surge to fundamentally transform our business model as it relates to product mix and pricing. Further, the firearm market remains healthy, with strong participation growth in recent years on top of a large and loyal base of core consumers, all of which leads to a compelling view of the future for a leading brand like Smith & Wesson."

    Deana McPherson, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, commented, "In spite of inflationary pressures, we are pleased that our average selling prices and profitability for the third quarter were well above pre-pandemic levels. Our investment in the relocation to Tennessee resulted in us borrowing against our line of credit during the third quarter, but we expect that we will be able to repay this balance by the time the relocation is complete, if not sooner. We will continue to focus on managing the business for long-term profitability, market share performance, and capital returned to our stockholders. Consistent with our capital allocation strategy, our board of directors has authorized a $0.10 per share quarterly dividend, which will be paid to stockholders of record on March 16, 2023 with payment to be made on March 30, 2023."

    Conference Call and Webcast

    The company will host a conference call and webcast on March 9, 2023 to discuss its third quarter fiscal 2023 financial and operational results. Speakers on the conference call will include Mark Smith, President and Chief Executive Officer, and Deana McPherson, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. The conference call may include forward-looking statements. The conference call and webcast will begin at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time (2:00 p.m. Pacific Time).

    Reconciliation of U.S. GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    In this press release, certain non-GAAP financial measures, including "non-GAAP net income," "Adjusted EBITDAS," and "free cash flow" are presented. From time-to-time, we consider and use these supplemental measures of operating performance in order to provide the reader with an improved understanding of underlying performance trends. We believe it is useful for us and the reader to review, as applicable, both (1) GAAP measures that include (i) interest expense, (ii) income tax expense, (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) stock-based compensation expense, (v) COVID-19 expenses, (vi) transition costs, (vii) amortization of acquired intangible assets, (viii) spin related stock-based compensation, (ix) relocation expense, (x) CEO separation, (xi) change in contingent consideration, and (xii) the tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments; and (2) the non-GAAP measures that exclude such information. We present these non-GAAP measures because we consider them an important supplemental measure of our performance. Our definition of these adjusted financial measures may differ from similarly named measures used by others. We believe these measures facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period by eliminating potential differences caused by the existence and timing of certain expense items that would not otherwise be apparent on a GAAP basis. These non-GAAP measures have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our GAAP measures. The principal limitations of these measures are that they do not reflect our actual expenses and may thus have the effect of inflating its financial measures on a GAAP basis.
