"The second quarter represents a pivotal point in Brunswick's transition to a pure-play marine company, and we have tremendous confidence in the future of our business," said Brunswick Chief Executive Officer David Foulkes. "Completing the Fitness transaction allows us to center our strategy and message on our unparalleled marine platform. In addition, the combination of deploying sales proceeds, reinforced by today's announcement of more aggressive share repurchases, and the decisive actions announced earlier this week and last month regarding the structural reduction of approximately $50 million in annual run-rate costs across the enterprise, enables us to substantially enhance our long-term earnings power under a range of potential market scenarios.

"The demand environment in the first-half of 2019 was challenging in certain of our businesses, due in significant part to unfavorable weather across many regions of the U.S. and Canada. Muted market demand affected both our Marine Engine and Boat segments, mostly through reduced demand for value boats and lower horsepower outboard engines. However, the contributions from Power Products along with our continued focus on new product development, technology leadership, operational excellence, our stable parts and accessories business, and business model evolution all enabled strong margin performance and strengthened our overall growth profile.

"Our Marine Engine segment posted modest top-line growth, led by benefits from the Power Products acquisition and continued robust demand for, and market share gains in, higher horsepower outboard engine products.  These sales gains, along with steady margin accretion and cost management actions, supported strong earnings growth in the quarter. The boat business reported slight sales and earnings declines, with gains in premium offerings, including Lund and Sea Ray Sport Boats and Cruisers, and cost management actions, offset by sales declines in value aluminum products and pontoons.






"Importantly, assuming market conditions consistent with this year, we remain confident in our 2020 earnings targets given the anticipated full-year benefits of the cost reduction and share repurchase actions discussed above, along with continued operating improvements and second-half 2019 pipelines adjustments," Foulkes continued.

Capital Strategy Actions

"As previously discussed, we plan to be very aggressive in deploying the proceeds from the sale of our Fitness business to enhance shareholder returns," said Foulkes. "Our board has increased our existing share repurchase authorization to $600 million and we plan to repurchase $330 million of shares in the second-half of 2019, bringing the full-year total to $400 million. This increased authorization also provides flexibility to continue with an aggressive share repurchase schedule beyond this year as market conditions allow.

"In addition, we continue to execute against planned actions to strengthen our balance sheet and, earlier this month, we called our $150 million of outstanding 2021 senior notes to be redeemed in August, and completed the exit of our defined benefit pension plans. Lastly, we continue to evaluate acquisition opportunities, primarily within our parts and accessories business.

Discontinued Operations

On June 27, 2019, Brunswick completed the sale of its Fitness business. Starting with the second quarter of 2019, the historical and future results of this business are now reported as discontinued operations. Therefore, for all periods presented in this release, all figures and outlook statements incorporate this change and reflect continuing operations only, unless otherwise noted.




2019 Second Quarter Results

For the second quarter of 2019, Brunswick reported consolidated net sales of $1,163.5 million, up from $1,148.7 million a year earlier, with $19.9 million of sales related to Sport Yacht and Yachts in the second quarter of 2018. As a reminder, these operations were wound down in the third quarter of 2018. Diluted EPS for the quarter was $1.28 on a GAAP basis and $1.45 on an as adjusted basis.

Review of Cash Flow and Balance Sheet

Cash and marketable securities totaled $668.5 million at the end of the second quarter, up $364.3 million from year-end 2018 levels. This increase mostly reflects $473.8 million of cash from discontinued operations, including proceeds received from the sale of the Fitness business. Additionally, this includes net cash provided by operating activities during the first six months of the year of $147.4 million, which was lower by $19.6 million primarily as a result of more unfavorable changes in working capital during the first-half of the year, partially offset by higher net earnings, net of non-cash expenditures and lower pension contributions.





In addition, investing and financing activities resulted in a net cash usage of $258.3 million during the first half of 2019, and included $135.2 million of capital expenditures, $69.8 million of share repurchases, $64.4 million related to an acquisition, $55.0 million of net proceeds from issuances and retirements of debt, and $36.4 million of dividend payments.

Marine Engine Segment

The Marine Engine segment, which manufactures and distributes marine propulsion systems and related parts and accessories, reported net sales of $871.5 million in the second quarter of 2019, up 4.5 percent from $834.3 million in the second quarter of 2018. The Power Products acquisition contributed approximately 8 percent to the growth rate in the quarter. International sales, which represented 30 percent of total segment sales in the quarter, were up 9 percent compared to the prior year period. For the quarter, the Marine Engine segment reported operating earnings of $164.6 million, which included $7.2 million of purchase accounting amortization related to the Power Products acquisition and restructuring, exit, and impairment charges of $0.6 million. This compares with $149.1 million of operating earnings in the second quarter of 2018, which included $2.5 million of acquisition related costs.

The addition of Power Products and continued gains in higher horsepower outboard engine categories contributed to sales and earnings increases in the quarter, offsetting softness in outboard engines 150 horsepower and below and sterndrive engines. In addition, earnings growth was positively affected by favorable impacts from changes in product and customer mix and cost control measures, which offset the impact from tariffs and unfavorable changes in foreign exchange rates.

Boat Segment

The Boat segment, which manufactures and distributes recreational boats, reported net sales of $366.6 million for the second quarter of 2019, a decrease from $394.9 million in the second quarter of 2018, which included $19.9 million of Sport Yacht and Yacht sales. International sales, which represented 26 percent of total segment sales in the



quarter, decreased by 17 percent compared to the prior year. For the second quarter of 2019, the Boat segment reported operating earnings of $20.8 million, which included $2.9 million of Sport Yacht and Yacht charges, $2.6 million of restructuring, exit, and impairment charges, and $1.4 million of acquisition-related costs and amortization related to the acquisition of Freedom Boat Club. This compares to an operating loss of $32.2 million in the second quarter of 2018 which included $33.5 million of restructuring, exit, and impairment charges and Sport Yacht and Yacht operating losses of $27.4 million.

Sales and operating earnings comparisons were both affected by the exit from the Sport Yacht and Yacht business in the second-half of 2018. Excluding this factor, sales decreased slightly despite gains in certain premium categories. Operating earnings declined as benefits from cost control measures were more than offset by the impact of lower volume and higher retail discounts required to lower pipelines in the second-half of the year.

2019 and 2020 Outlook

"Despite near-term market challenges, our longer-term outlook remains very positive and consistent with our established strategic plan," said Foulkes. "Our marine businesses remain healthy and, as a result of steady investment in new products and technology, we continue to gain market share throughout our premium product categories that significantly contribute to our earnings growth. Our P&A business is a formidable, aftermarket-focused asset that provides stable top-line and earnings performance in all market conditions, and we are now the leader in the emerging boating shared access market through our acquisition of Freedom Boat Club, which was completed in the second quarter and is performing to plan.

"After considering first-half market performance, we now anticipate U.S. marine industry retail unit demand for the year being down mid-single digit percent versus 2018, resulting in slight overall revenue growth versus prior year, with Power Products adding 4 percent of growth to consolidated sales comparisons. Marine Engine sales are expected to grow between 2 and 4 percent and Boat Group sales are expected to



decline by between 6 and 7 percent. We are projecting strong sales contributions from Power Products, higher horsepower outboard engines, and certain of our premium boat brands, and expect stable performance by the parts and accessories business. Anticipated headwinds include lower sales of outboard engines 150 horsepower and below, value boat products, and certain Boston Whaler product lines in advance of impending new product launches. We are also planning to significantly lower wholesale shipments in the second-half, which is necessary to realign pipelines with demand, resulting in overall pipeline levels at year-end that are meaningfully down in overall units versus 2018 and consistent on a weeks-on-hand basis, providing a solid base entering 2020. Finally, we believe that international regions will provide growth in the Marine Engine segment, while international boat sales will continue to be a headwind.

"From a margin perspective, we are projecting solid improvements in gross and operating margins. This performance reflects benefits from new products, overall improved manufacturing efficiencies, cost reduction and containment initiatives, and acquisition contributions, while tariffs and currency fluctuations remain headwinds. We have appropriately adjusted our cost structure to compensate for lower demand, while prioritizing investment in new products and profit enhancing initiatives. We anticipate adjusted operating earnings to increase by a low-to-mid-single digit percent.

"Given all the factors discussed above, our guidance for 2019 as adjusted diluted EPS is in the range of $4.20 to $4.30. In addition, considering the positive momentum created by actions taken this year, including the full-year benefits from cost measures and the execution of our capital strategy, we are maintaining our 2020 EPS target of $5.00 to $5.50, assuming steady macro-economic conditions and a retail marine market that is flat to 2019," Foulkes concluded.




Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures used in this release is provided in the reconciliation sections of the consolidated financial statements accompanying this release.

In order to better align Brunswick's reported results with the internal metrics used by Brunswick's management to evaluate business performance as well as to provide better comparisons to prior periods and peer data, non-GAAP measures used in this release exclude the impact of purchase accounting amortization related to the Power Products and Freedom Boat Club acquisitions.

Brunswick does not provide forward-looking guidance for certain financial measures on a GAAP basis because it is unable to predict certain items contained in the GAAP measures without unreasonable efforts. These items may include pension settlement charges, restructuring, exit, and impairment costs, special tax items, acquisition-related costs, and certain other unusual adjustments.
