Executive Overview from Cliff Pemble, President and Chief Executive Officer:
“We delivered another quarter of outstanding financial results with double-digit revenue growth and robust margin expansion, which resulted in record revenue and operating income. Each business segment contributed to these impressive results. Our performance in the first half of 2026 was very strong giving us confidence to raise our full year 2026 consolidated revenue and EPS guidance.” - Cliff Pemble, President and Chief Executive Officer of Garmin Ltd.
Fitness:
Revenue from the fitness segment increased 25% in the second quarter with growth across all product categories, led by strong demand for advanced wearables. Gross and operating margins were 64% and 37%, respectively, resulting in $277 million of operating income. During the quarter, we launched the Forerunner® 70 and Forerunner 170, easy-to-use GPS running smartwatches designed to help runners of all levels reach their goals. In addition, we celebrated global running day and global cycling day with the release of our running and cycling data reports, highlighting how athletes around the world are recording runs and rides. More recently, we announced the CIRQA Smart Band, a screenless wearable that offers rich wellness and fitness insights without requiring a subscription and further expands our addressable market for wellness devices.
Outdoor:
Revenue from the outdoor segment decreased 2% in the second quarter primarily due to the consumer auto and adventure watch product categories. Gross and operating margins were 69% and 34%, respectively, resulting in $164 million of operating income. We recently announced the Approach® Z10, a compact laser rangefinder that sends precise distances to compatible devices bringing a high-fidelity experience to game play, and we also released our Trends in Golf Data Report, highlighting that participation in the sport is up and players improving in nearly every shot category.
Aviation:
Revenue from the aviation segment increased 8% in the second quarter with growth in both the OEM and aftermarket product categories. Gross and operating margins were 75% and 27%, respectively, resulting in $72 million of operating income. For the 11th consecutive year, we were named Best Supplier of the Year by Embraer, recognizing us for outstanding performance as a supplier of Electrical and Electronic Systems for their Phenom business jets. During the quarter, we launched the D2TM Mach 2 Pro, our first aviator smartwatch with inReach technology. We also recently announced AXIS, an all-new family of highly integrated and scalable cockpit display solutions for a broad range of certified and experimental aircraft models.
Marine:
Revenue from the marine segment increased 14% in the second quarter with broad-based growth across multiple categories. Gross and operating margins were 61% and 29%, respectively, resulting in $100 million of operating income. During the quarter, we launched the Garmin SignalTM VHF marine radios which offer color touchscreens and new features that enhance communication on the water. We recently announced the next generation LiveScopeTM 2, delivering live sonar images with improved range and clarity.
Auto OEM:
Revenue from the auto OEM segment increased 1% during the second quarter primarily due to domain controllers. Operating income improved to $3 million in the quarter, compared to an operating loss in the prior-year period, driven by improved gross profit and lower research and development expenses.
Additional Financial Information:
The consolidated gross margin expanded 360 basis points to 62.4%, compared to the prior year quarter with higher margins across all segments. The consolidated gross margin increase was primarily attributable to favorable product mix within certain segments and approximately $21 million in refunds of previously paid tariffs.
Total operating expenses in the second quarter were $647 million, a 9% increase over the prior year. Research and development and selling, general and administrative expenses increased 10% and 8%, respectively, driven primarily by personnel related costs.
The effective tax rate in the second quarter was 16.8%, compared to an effective tax rate of 16.5% in the prior year quarter. The increase in the effective tax rate is primarily due to income mix by jurisdiction.
In the second quarter of 2026, we generated operating cash flows of $404 million and free cash flow(1) of $276 million. We paid a quarterly dividend of $202 million and repurchased $43 million of the Company’s shares within the quarter, leaving approximately $448 million remaining as of June 27, 2026 in the $500 million share repurchase program authorized through December 2028. We ended the quarter with cash and marketable securities of approximately $4.4 billion.
Fiscal Year 2026 Guidance:
Based on our performance during the first half of 2026 and our positive outlook for the remainder of the year, we are raising our full year 2026 guidance. We now anticipate revenue of approximately $8.05 billion and pro forma EPS of $10.00 based on gross margin of 59.7%, operating margin of 27.0% and a full year tax rate of 16.5% (see attached discussion on Forward-looking Financial Measures).
Dividend Recommendation:
At the 2026 annual shareholders’ meeting, Garmin shareholders, in accordance with Swiss corporate law, approved a cash dividend in the total amount of $4.20 per share, payable in four equal installments on dates to be determined by the Board in its discretion. The first payment was made on June 26, 2026.

The Board currently anticipates the scheduling of the remaining quarterly dividend installments as follows:

Non-GAAP Financial Information
To supplement our financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, this release includes the following measures defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission as non-GAAP financial measures: pro forma effective tax rate, pro forma net income (earnings) per share and free cash flow. These non-GAAP measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles and should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies, limiting the usefulness of the measures for comparison with other companies. Management believes providing investors with an operating view consistent with how it manages the Company provides enhanced transparency into the operating results of the Company, as described in more detail by category below.
The tables below provide reconciliations between the GAAP and non-GAAP measures.
Pro forma effective tax rate
The Company’s income tax expense is occasionally impacted by discrete tax items that are not reflective of income tax expense incurred as a result of current period earnings. Therefore, management believes the effective tax rate and income tax provision before the effect of certain discrete tax items are important measures to permit investors' consistent comparison between periods. In the first half of 2026 and 2025 there were no such discrete tax items identified.
Pro forma net income (earnings) per share
Management believes net income (earnings) per share before the impact of foreign currency gains or losses and certain discrete income tax items, as discussed above, is an important measure to permit a consistent comparison of the Company’s performance between periods.

(1) Foreign currency gains and losses for the Company are driven by movements of a number of currencies in relation to the U.S. Dollar and the related exchange rate impact on the significant cash, receivables, and payables held in a currency other than the functional currency at a given legal entity. However, there is minimal cash impact from such foreign currency gains and losses. |

(2) The tax effect of foreign currency gains was calculated using the effective tax rates of 16.8% and 15.7% for the 13-weeks and 26-weeks ended June 27, 2026, respectively, and 16.5% and 15.6% for the 13-weeks and 26-weeks ended June 28, 2025, respectively. |

Free cash flow
Management believes free cash flow is an important liquidity measure because it represents the amount of cash provided by operations that is available for investing and defines it as operating cash flows less capital expenditures for property and equipment. Management believes excluding purchases of property and equipment provides a better understanding of the underlying trends in the Company’s operations and allows more accurate comparisons of the Company’s results between periods. This metric may also be useful to investors but should not be considered in isolation as it is not a measure of cash flow available for discretionary expenditures. The most comparable GAAP measure is net cash provided by operating activities.

Forward-looking Financial Measures
The forward-looking financial measures in our 2026 guidance provided above do not consider the potential future net effect of foreign currency exchange gains and losses, certain discrete tax items and any other impacts that may be identified as pro forma adjustments in calculating the non-GAAP measures described above.
The estimated impact of foreign currency gains and losses cannot be reasonably estimated on a forward-looking basis due to the high variability and low visibility with respect to non-operating foreign currency exchange gains and losses and the related tax effects of such gains and losses. The impact on diluted net income per share of foreign currency gains and losses, net of tax effects, was $0.00 per share for the 26-week period ended June 27, 2026.
At this time, management is unable to determine whether or not significant discrete tax items will occur in fiscal 2026, estimate the impact of any such items, or anticipate the impact of any other events that may be considered in the calculation of non-GAAP financial measures.
