[10-Q] Wolverine World Wide, Inc. Quarterly Earnings Report

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Wolverine World Wide (NYSE: WWW) reported a solid Q2 FY25 turnaround. Revenue rose 11.5% YoY to $474.2 million, driven by 16% growth in the Active Group (Merrell, Saucony, Sweaty Betty) and mid-single-digit gains in Work. Gross profit expanded 22% to $224.0 million and gross margin improved 410 bp to 47.2% as pricing, mix and lower close-out sales offset modest cost inflation. SG&A grew 9% but remained below the sales growth rate; combined with the absence of last year’s $3.2 million impairment charge, operating profit advanced 40% to $40.7 million. Net income attributable to WWW doubled to $26.8 million and diluted EPS climbed to $0.32 from $0.17.

Year-to-date revenue is up 8.1% to $886.5 million and EPS swung to a $0.45 profit versus a $0.01 loss in 1H FY24. Cash used in operations widened to $39.2 million, reflecting a $68.3 million inventory build tied to upcoming peak shipping periods. Inventories ended the quarter at $316.0 million (+6.4% YoY). Total debt fell $106 million YoY to $708.5 million, aided by repayment of revolving credit balances, while shareholders’ equity increased 32% to $357.0 million. The company closed the sale of Sperry, recorded $22 million of China JV proceeds and continues to remediate legacy PFAS liabilities (environmental reserve: $34.8 million).

• Q2 operating margin: 8.6% vs. 6.8%
• Interest expense: $8.5 million, down 29%
• Cash & equivalents: $141.0 million
• Dividend maintained at $0.10 per share

Management reiterates its focus on gross margin expansion, debt reduction and brand-led growth, but near-term cash flow is pressured by working-capital needs and environmental payments.

Insights

Sell-Side Equity Analyst

TL;DR – Beat on sales/margins, better leverage, but cash burn & inventory build temper enthusiasm.

Revenue, gross margin and EPS all exceeded prior-year levels, signalling early success from portfolio rationalisation (Sperry divestiture) and brand investment. Operating leverage was evident: SG&A grew below sales and interest expense fell on lower revolver usage. However, negative operating cash flow and a 6% inventory uptick show that working-capital discipline lags earnings momentum. Net debt/EBITDA is improving but remains high given a 5.94% blended rate. Overall impact: modestly positive; the print supports FY25 recovery thesis but valuation hinges on converting earnings to cash.

Credit Risk Analyst

TL;DR – Leverage trending down; liquidity adequate, covenants met; watch cash generation.

Total debt declined $106 million YoY, with revolver drawdowns trimmed to $135 million and no new term borrowings. Interest coverage improved to 4.9× (EBIT/interest) versus 2.4× last year, comfortably above covenant minima. Cash of $141 million plus $653 million unused revolver capacity provide good liquidity. Yet free-cash-flow is negative and environmental outflows continue ($7.5 million YTD). Rating outlook stable, contingent on inventory normalisation and sustained margin gains.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This document contains “forward-looking statements,” which are statements relating to future, not past, events. In this context, forward-looking statements often address management’s current beliefs, assumptions, expectations, estimates and projections about future business and financial performance, national, regional or global political, economic and market conditions, and the Company itself. Such statements often contain words such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “forecasts,” “intends,” “is likely,” “plans,” “predicts,” “projects,” “should,” “will,” variations of such words, and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements, by their nature, address matters that are, to varying degrees, uncertain. Uncertainties that could cause the Company’s performance to differ materially from what is expressed in forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following:

•changes in general economic conditions, employment rates, business conditions, interest rates, tax policies and other factors affecting consumer spending and confidence in the markets and regions in which the Company’s products are sold;

•the inability for any reason to effectively compete in global footwear, apparel and direct-to-consumer markets;

•the inability to maintain positive brand images and anticipate, understand and respond to changing footwear and apparel trends and consumer preferences;

•the inability to effectively manage inventory levels;

•increases or changes in duties, tariffs, quotas or applicable assessments in countries of import and export;

•foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and currency restrictions;

•supply chain and capacity constraints, production and distribution disruptions, including service interruptions at shipping and receiving ports, reduction in operating hours, labor shortages, and facility closures resulting in production delays at the Company’s manufacturers, quality issues, price increases or other risks associated with foreign sourcing;

•the cost, including the effect of inflationary pressures and availability of raw materials, inventories, services and labor for contract manufacturers;

•changes in relationships with, including the loss of, significant wholesale customers;

•risks related to the significant investment in, and performance of, the Company’s direct-to-consumer operations;

•risks related to expansion into new markets and complementary product categories;

•the impact of seasonality and unpredictable weather conditions;

•the impact of changes in general economic conditions, potential economic slowdown, and/or the credit markets on the Company’s manufacturers, distributors, suppliers, joint venture partners and wholesale customers;

•changes in the Company’s effective tax rates;

•failure of licensees or distributors to meet planned annual sales goals or to make timely payments to the Company;

•the risks of doing business in developing countries and politically or economically volatile areas;

•the ability to secure and protect owned intellectual property or use licensed intellectual property;

•legal compliance and litigation risks, including with respect to federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment, environmental remediation and other related costs, and environmental effects on human health;

•risks of breach of the Company’s databases or other systems, or those of its vendors, which contain certain personal information, payment card data or proprietary information, due to cyberattack or other similar events;

•strategic actions, including new initiatives and ventures, acquisitions and dispositions, and the Company’s success in integrating acquired businesses, including Sweaty Betty®;

•risks related to stockholder activism;

•the risk of impairment to goodwill and other intangibles;

•the success of the Company's restructuring and realignment initiatives undertaken from time to time; and

•changes in future pension funding requirements and pension expenses.

These or other uncertainties could cause a material difference between an actual outcome and a forward-looking statement. The uncertainties included here are not exhaustive and are described in more detail in Part I, Item 1A: “Risk Factors” of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2024, filed with the SEC on February 20, 2025 (the “2024 Form 10-K”), and in Part II, Item 1A: “Risk Factors” of the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 29, 2025, filed with the SEC on May 8, 2025 (the “First Quarter 2025 Form 10-Q”). Given these risks and uncertainties, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results. The Company does not undertake an obligation to update, amend or clarify forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

WOLVERINE WORLD WIDE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

1.BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Nature of Operations

Wolverine World Wide, Inc. (the “Company”) is a leading designer, marketer and licensor of a broad range of quality casual footwear and apparel; performance outdoor and athletic footwear and apparel; kids’ footwear; industrial work shoes, boots and apparel; and uniform shoes and boots. The Company’s portfolio of owned and licensed brands includes: Bates®, Cat®, Chaco®, Harley-Davidson®, Hush Puppies®, HYTEST®, Merrell®, Saucony®, Stride Rite®, Sweaty Betty® and Wolverine®. The Company’s products are marketed worldwide through owned operations, through licensing and distribution arrangements with third parties, and through joint ventures. The Company also operates retail stores and eCommerce sites to market both its own brands and branded footwear and apparel from other manufacturers.

Effective January 1, 2024, the Company completed the sale of the Company’s equity interests in joint venture entities that sourced and marketed Merrell® and Saucony® footwear and apparel products in China. See Note 17 for further discussion.

Effective January 10, 2024, the Company completed the sale of the Sperry® business. See Note 17 for further discussion.

Effective May 4, 2024, the Company entered into global multi-year licensing agreements of the Merrell® and Saucony® kids footwear and Merrell® apparel and accessories.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for a complete presentation of the financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for fair presentation have been included in the accompanying financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s 2024 Form 10-K.

Fiscal Year

The Company’s fiscal year is the 52- or 53-week period that ends on the Saturday nearest to December 31. Fiscal year 2025 has 53 weeks and fiscal year 2024 had 52 weeks. The Company reports its quarterly results of operations on the basis of 13-week quarters for each of the first three fiscal quarters and a 13 or 14-week period for the fourth fiscal quarter. References to particular years or quarters refer to the Company’s fiscal years ended on the Saturday nearest to December 31 or the fiscal quarters within those years.

Seasonality

The Company experiences moderate fluctuations in sales volume during the year, as reflected in quarterly revenue. The Company expects current seasonal sales patterns to continue in future years. The Company also experiences some fluctuation in its levels of working capital, typically reflecting an increase in net working capital requirements near the end of the first and third fiscal quarters as the Company builds inventory to support peak shipping periods. Historically, cash provided by operating activities is higher in the second half of the fiscal year due to collection of wholesale channel receivables and higher direct-to-consumer sales during the holiday season. The Company meets its working capital requirements through internal operating cash flows and, as needed, borrowings under its revolving credit facility, as discussed in more detail under the caption "Liquidity and Capital Resources" in Item 2: "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations". The Company's working capital could also be impacted by other events.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or an asset group may not be recoverable. Each impairment test is based on a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset or asset group to the future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset or asset group. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment amount to be recognized is the amount by which the carrying value of the assets exceeds their fair value.

In the first quarter of 2024, the Company incurred non-cash impairment charges on the long-lived property, plant and equipment and lease right-of-use assets at the Company’s distribution center in Louisville, Kentucky to adjust the carrying

9

value of the assets to their estimated fair value. The Louisville distribution center impairment charges were related to the Company’s transformation activities and actions to consolidate distribution operations. The long-lived assets had no fair value after the Company stopped using the distribution center.

In the second quarter of 2024, the Company recorded non-cash impairment charges on certain Corporate U.S. and Canada office long-lived property, plant and equipment and right-of-use assets, to adjust the carrying amount of the assets to estimated fair value. The impairment primarily resulted from divestiture activities and consolidation of corporate office space. Fair value was estimated based on the discounted cash flows of estimated rental income from subleases, net of estimated expenses.

The following table provides details related to asset impairment charges recorded:

									Quarter Ended												Year-To-Date Ended
(In millions)									June 29, 2024												June 29, 2024
Lease right-of-use assets impairment									$	3.0											$	5.9
Property, plant and equipment impairment									0.2												3.4
Total impairment									$	3.2											$	9.3

2.NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

3.EARNINGS PER SHARE

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share.

			Quarter Ended												Year-To-Date Ended
(In millions, except per share data)			June 28, 2025						June 29, 2024						June 28, 2025						June 29, 2024
Numerator:
Net earnings (loss) attributable to Wolverine World Wide, Inc.			$	26.8					$	14.2					$	37.9					$	(0.3)
Adjustment for earnings allocated to non-vested restricted common stock			(0.9)						(0.5)						(1.2)						(0.6)
Net earnings (loss) used in calculating basic and diluted earnings per share			$	25.9					$	13.7					$	36.7					$	(0.9)
Denominator:
Weighted average shares outstanding			81.1						80.0						80.9						79.9
Net earnings (loss) per share:
Basic			$	0.32					$	0.17					$	0.45					$	(0.01)
Diluted			$	0.32					$	0.17					$	0.45					$	(0.01)

For the quarter and year-to-date ended June 28, 2025, 876,607 and 363,937 outstanding stock options, respectively, have not been included in the denominator for the computation of diluted earnings per share because they were anti-dilutive.

For the quarter and year-to-date ended June 29, 2024, 1,574,879 and 1,672,689 outstanding stock options, respectively, have not been included in the denominator for the computation of diluted earnings per share because they were anti-dilutive.

4.GOODWILL AND INDEFINITE-LIVED INTANGIBLES

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill are as follows:

			Year-To-Date Ended
(In millions)			June 28, 2025						June 29, 2024
Goodwill balance at beginning of the year			$	424.6					$	427.1
Foreign currency translation effects			8.0						(1.3)
Goodwill balance at end of the quarter			$	432.6					$	425.8

Goodwill balances are net of accumulated impairment charges. Accumulated impairment charges were $48.4 million as of June 28, 2025 and June 29, 2024, and are related to the Sweaty Betty® reporting unit, which is part of the Active Group reportable segment.

The Company’s indefinite-lived intangible assets, which comprise trade names and trademarks, totaled $181.8 million, $173.0 million, and $173.4 million as of June 28, 2025, December 28, 2024, and June 29, 2024, respectively. The Company conducted an interim impairment assessment as of June 28, 2025 and determined that there were no triggering events indicating impairment of the Company’s goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets.

For the Sweaty Betty® reporting unit included in the fiscal year 2024 annual impairment test, the estimated fair value of the reporting unit exceeded the carrying value by 3%. The Sweaty Betty® trade name was valued using the income approach, specifically the multi-period excess earnings method. The key assumptions used in the valuations were revenue growth, EBITDA margin, and the discount rate. Although the Company believes the estimates and assumptions used in the valuations were appropriate, it is possible assumptions could change in future periods. The risk of future impairment to the Sweaty Betty® trade name and Sweaty Betty® goodwill depend on assumptions used in the determination of the trade name's and reporting unit's fair value, such as revenue growth, EBITDA margin, taxes, depreciation and amortization margin, discount rate, and assumed tax rate, or if macroeconomic conditions deteriorate and adversely affect the values of the Company's Sweaty Betty® trade name and the Sweaty Betty® reporting unit. A future impairment charge of the Sweaty Betty® trade name and the Sweaty Betty® reporting unit goodwill could have an adverse material effect on the Company's consolidated financial results. The carrying values of the Company’s Sweaty Betty® trade name indefinite-lived intangible asset and the Sweaty Betty® reporting unit goodwill were $107.1 million and $57.1 million, respectively, as of June 28, 2025.

5.ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

The Company and certain of its subsidiaries sell, on a continuous basis without recourse, their trade receivables to Rockford ARS, LLC (“Rockford ARS”), a wholly-owned bankruptcy-remote subsidiary of the Company. On December 7, 2022, Rockford ARS entered into a receivables purchase agreement (“RPA”), which was subsequently amended on April 15, 2024, to sell up to $125.0 million of receivables to certain purchasers (the “Purchasers”) on a recurring basis in exchange for cash (referred to as “capital” in the RPA) equal to the gross receivables transferred. The parties intend that the transfers of receivables to the Purchasers constitute purchases and sales of receivables. Rockford ARS has guaranteed to each Purchaser the prompt payment of sold receivables, and has granted a security interest in its assets for the benefit of the Purchasers. Under the RPA, which matures on December 5, 2025, each Purchaser’s share of capital accrues yield at a floating rate plus an applicable margin. The Company is the master servicer under the RPA, and is responsible for administering and collecting receivables.

The proceeds of the RPA are classified as operating activities in the Company's consolidated condensed statement of cash flows. Cash received from collections of sold receivables may be used to fund additional purchases of receivables on a revolving basis or to return all or any portion of outstanding capital of the Purchasers. Subsequent collections of the pledged receivables, which have not been sold, will be classified as operating cash flows at the time of collection. Total receivables sold under the RPA were $135.7 million and $248.3 million for the quarter and year-to-date ended June 28, 2025, respectively. Total receivables sold under the RPA were $102.7 million and $205.0 million for the quarter and year-to-date ended June 29, 2024, respectively. Total cash collections under the RPA were $126.9 million and $249.5 million in the quarter and year-to-date ended June 28, 2025, respectively. Total cash collections under the RPA were $104.1 million and $205.8 million in the quarter and year-to-date ended June 29, 2024, respectively. The fair value of the sold receivables approximated book value due to their credit quality and short-term nature, and as a result, no gain or loss on sale of receivables was recorded.

As of the fiscal quarters ended June 28, 2025 and June 29, 2024, the amount sold to the Purchasers under the RPA was $111.3 million and $93.0 million, respectively, which was derecognized from the consolidated condensed balance sheets. As collateral against sold receivables, Rockford ARS maintains a certain level of unsold receivables, which were $53.4 million and $53.6 million as of the fiscal quarters ended June 28, 2025 and June 29, 2024, respectively.

6.REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

Revenue Recognition and Performance Obligations

The Company reports disaggregated revenue for the wholesale and direct-to-consumer sales channels, which are reconciled to the Company’s reportable segments. The wholesale channel includes royalty revenue, which operates in a similar manner as other wholesale revenue due to similar oversight and management, customer base, the performance obligation (footwear and apparel goods) and point in time completion of the performance obligation.

			Quarter Ended June 28, 2025																		Quarter Ended June 29, 2024
(In millions)			Wholesale						Direct-to-Consumer						Total						Wholesale						Direct-to-Consumer						Total
Active Group			$	253.5					$	102.0					$	355.5					$	203.1					$	102.8					$	305.9
Work Group			99.0						8.5						107.5						95.8						9.2						105.0

Total Revenue			$	362.6					$	111.6					$	474.2					$	311.8					$	113.4					$	425.2

			Year-To-Date Ended June 28, 2025																		Year-To-Date Ended June 29, 2024
(In millions)			Wholesale						Direct-to-Consumer						Total						Wholesale						Direct-to-Consumer						Total
Active Group			$	492.6					$	189.6					$	682.2					$	399.3					$	196.4					$	595.7
Work Group			165.9						16.4						182.3						177.1						18.0						195.1
Other			20.0						2.0						22.0						23.9						5.4						29.3
Total Revenue			$	678.5					$	208.0					$	886.5					$	600.3					$	219.8					$	820.1

The Company has agreements to license symbolic intellectual property with minimum guarantees or fixed consideration. The Company is due $34.7 million of remaining fixed transaction price under its license agreements as of June 28, 2025, which it expects to recognize per the terms of its contracts over the course of time through December 2028. The Company has elected to omit the remaining variable consideration under its license agreements given the Company recognizes revenue equal to what it

12

has the right to invoice and that amount corresponds directly with the value to the customer of the Company’s performance to date.

Reserves for Variable Consideration

Revenue is recorded at the net sales price (“transaction price”), which includes estimates of variable consideration for which reserves are established. Components of variable consideration include trade discounts and allowances, product returns, customer markdowns, customer rebates and other sales incentives relating to the sale of the Company’s products. These reserves, as detailed below, are based on the amounts earned, or to be claimed on the related sales. These estimates take into consideration a range of possible outcomes, which are probability-weighted in accordance with the expected value method for relevant factors such as current contractual and statutory requirements, specific known market events and trends, industry data and forecasted customer buying and payment patterns. Overall, these reserves reflect the Company’s best estimates of the amount of consideration to which it is entitled based on the terms of the respective underlying contracts. Revenue recognized during the fiscal periods presented related to changes in the Company’s contract liabilities was nominal.

The Company’s contract balances are as follows:

(In millions)			June 28, 2025						December 28, 2024						June 29, 2024
Product returns reserve			$	9.9					$	12.2					$	8.4
Customer markdowns reserve			0.6						0.5						0.4
Other sales incentives reserve			2.2						3.6						2.9
Customer rebates liability			11.6						10.4						8.4
Customer advances liability			7.5						7.5						6.1

The amount of variable consideration included in the transaction price may be constrained and is included in the net sales price only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of the cumulative revenue recognized under the contract will not occur in a future period. Actual amounts of consideration ultimately received may differ from initial estimates. If actual results in the future vary from initial estimates, the Company subsequently adjusts these estimates, which would affect net revenue and earnings in the period such variances become known.

7.DEBT

Total debt consists of the following obligations:

(In millions)			June 28, 2025						December 28, 2024						June 29, 2024
Term Facility, due October 21, 2026			$	27.5					$	32.5					$	45.0
Senior Notes, 4.000% interest, due August 15, 2029			550.0						550.0						550.0
Borrowings under revolving credit agreements			135.0						70.0						225.0
Unamortized deferred financing costs			(4.0)						(4.5)						(5.3)
Total debt			$	708.5					$	648.0					$	814.7

The Company’s Credit Agreement provides for a term loan A facility (the “Term Facility”) and for a revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility” and, together with the Term Facility, the “Senior Credit Facilities”). The maturity date of the loans under the Senior Credit Facilities is October 21, 2026. The Credit Agreement provides for a debt capacity of up to an aggregate debt amount (including outstanding term loan principal and revolver commitment amounts in addition to permitted incremental debt) not to exceed $2.0 billion unless certain specified conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement are met.

The Term Facility requires quarterly principal payments with a balloon payment due on October 21, 2026. The scheduled principal payments due under the Term Facility over the next 12 months total $10.0 million as of June 28, 2025 and are recorded as current maturities of long-term debt on the consolidated condensed balance sheets. In addition, the Company made payments towards the Term Facility during fiscal year 2024 in accordance with requirements in the Credit Agreement relating to the use of proceeds from the disposition of the Company assets.

The Revolving Facility allows the Company to borrow up to an aggregate amount of $800.0 million. The Revolving Facility also includes a $100.0 million swingline subfacility and a $50.0 million letter of credit subfacility. The Company had outstanding letters of credit under the Revolving Facility of $11.7 million, $6.0 million and $7.0 million as of June 28, 2025, December 28, 2024 and June 29, 2024, respectively. These outstanding letters of credit reduce the borrowing capacity under the Revolving Facility.

13

The interest rates applicable to amounts outstanding under Term Facility and to U.S. dollar denominated amounts outstanding under the Revolving Facility are, at the Company’s option, either (1) the Alternate Base Rate plus an Applicable Margin as determined by the Company’s Consolidated Leverage Ratio, within a range of 0.125% to 1.000%, or (2) the Eurocurrency Rate plus an Applicable Margin as determined by the Company’s Consolidated Leverage Ratio, within a range of 1.125% to 2.000% (all capitalized terms used in this sentence are as defined in the Credit Agreement). At June 28, 2025, the Term Facility and the Revolving Facility had a weighted-average interest rate of 5.94%.

The obligations of the Company pursuant to the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by substantially all of the Company’s material domestic subsidiaries and secured by substantially all of the personal and real property of the Company and its material domestic subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions.

The Senior Credit Facilities also contain certain affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants that limit the ability of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries to, among other things: incur or guarantee indebtedness; incur liens; pay dividends or repurchase stock; enter into transactions with affiliates; consummate asset sales, acquisitions or mergers; prepay certain other indebtedness; or make investments, as well as covenants restricting the activities of certain foreign subsidiaries of the Company that hold intellectual property related assets. Further, the Senior Credit Facilities require compliance with the following financial covenants: a maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio and a minimum Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio (all capitalized terms used in this paragraph are as defined in the Senior Credit Facilities). As of June 28, 2025, the Company was in compliance with all covenants and performance ratios under the Senior Credit Facilities.

The Company’s $550.0 million 4.000% senior notes issued on August 26, 2021 are due on August 15, 2029. Related interest payments are due semi-annually. The senior notes are guaranteed by substantially all of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries.

The Company has a foreign revolving credit facility with aggregate available borrowings of $1.0 million that are uncommitted and, therefore, each borrowing against the facility is subject to approval by the lender. There were no borrowings against this facility as of June 28, 2025, December 28, 2024 and June 29, 2024, respectively.

The Company included in interest expense the amortization of deferred financing costs of $0.5 million and $1.0 million for the quarter and year-to-date ended June 28, 2025, respectively. The Company included in interest expense the amortization of deferred financing costs of $0.5 million and $1.1 million for the quarter and year-to-date ended June 29, 2024, respectively.

8.LEASES

The following is a summary of the Company’s lease cost.

The Company did not enter into any real estate leases with commencement dates subsequent to June 28, 2025.

9.DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company utilizes foreign currency forward exchange contracts designated as cash flow hedges to manage the volatility associated primarily with U.S. dollar inventory purchases made by non-U.S. wholesale operations in the normal course of business. These foreign currency forward exchange hedge contracts extended out to a maximum of 531 days, 531 days, and 503 days as of June 28, 2025, December 28, 2024 and June 29, 2024, respectively. If, in the future, the foreign exchange contracts

14

are determined not to be highly effective or are terminated before their contractual termination dates, the Company would remove the hedge designation from those contracts and reclassify into earnings the unrealized gains or losses that would otherwise be included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) within stockholders’ equity.

The Company also utilizes foreign currency forward exchange contracts that are not designated as hedging instruments to manage foreign currency transaction exposure. Foreign currency derivatives not designated as hedging instruments are offset by foreign exchange gains or losses resulting from the underlying exposures of foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities.

The Company had an interest rate swap arrangement, which matured on May 30, 2025. The agreement exchanged floating rate interest payments for fixed rate interest payments over the life of the agreement without the exchange of the underlying notional amounts. The differential paid or received on the interest rate swap arrangement was recognized as interest expense, net.

The notional amounts of the Company’s derivative instruments are as follows:

(Dollars in millions)			June 28, 2025						December 28, 2024						June 29, 2024
Foreign exchange hedge contracts			$	244.8					$	263.5					$	257.9
Interest rate swap			—						16.7						41.1

The recorded fair values of the Company’s derivative instruments are as follows:

(In millions)			June 28, 2025						December 28, 2024						June 29, 2024
Financial assets:
Foreign exchange hedge contracts			$	—					$	9.1					$	3.2
Interest rate swap			—						0.2						0.8
Financial liabilities:
Foreign exchange hedge contracts			$	(13.0)					$	(0.7)					$	(1.0)

Foreign exchange hedge contract financial assets are recorded to prepaid expenses and other current assets and financial liabilities are recorded to other accrued liabilities on the consolidated condensed balance sheets. Interest rate swap financial assets are recorded to other assets on the consolidated condensed balance sheets.

10.STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company recognized compensation expense of $6.9 million and $12.6 million, and related income tax benefits of $1.4 million and $2.5 million, for grants under its stock-based compensation plans for the quarter and year-to-date ended June 28, 2025, respectively. The Company recognized compensation expense of $5.7 million and $9.8 million, and related income tax benefits of $1.1 million and $1.9 million, for grants under its stock-based compensation plans for the quarter and year-to-date ended June 29, 2024, respectively.

The Company grants restricted stock or units (“restricted awards”), performance-based restricted stock or units (“performance awards”) and stock options under its stock-based compensation plans.

The Company granted restricted awards and performance awards as follows:

			Year-To-Date Ended June 28, 2025												Year-To-Date Ended June 29, 2024
(In millions)			Company Shares Issued						Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value						Company Shares Issued						Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value

11.RETIREMENT PLANS

The following is a summary of net pension and Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”) expense recognized by the Company.

			Quarter Ended												Year-To-Date Ended
(In millions)			June 28, 2025						June 29, 2024						June 28, 2025						June 29, 2024
Service cost pertaining to benefits earned during the period			$	0.5					$	0.7					$	1.0					$	1.4
Interest cost on projected benefit obligations			4.2						4.5						8.4						8.9
Expected return on pension assets			(4.4)						(4.9)						(8.9)						(9.8)
Net amortization loss			(0.4)						(0.4)						(0.8)						(0.8)
Net pension income			$	(0.1)					$	(0.1)					$	(0.3)					$	(0.3)

The non-service cost components of net pension income is recorded in Other income, net, on the consolidated condensed statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

12.INCOME TAXES

The Company maintains management and operational activities in overseas subsidiaries, and its foreign earnings are taxed at rates that are different than the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate. A significant amount of the Company’s earnings are generated by its Canadian, European and Asian subsidiaries and, to a lesser extent, in jurisdictions that are not subject to income tax.

The Company intends to permanently reinvest all non-cash undistributed earnings outside of the U.S. and has therefore not established a deferred tax liability on that amount of foreign unremitted earnings. However, if these non-cash undistributed earnings were repatriated, the Company would be required to accrue and pay applicable U.S. taxes and withholding taxes payable to various countries. It is not practicable to estimate the amount of the deferred tax liability associated with these non-cash unremitted earnings due to the complexity of the hypothetical calculation.

The Company’s effective tax rates for the quarter and year-to-date ended June 28, 2025 were 13.7% and 12.0%, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rates for the quarter and year-to-date ended June 29, 2024 were 13.1% and 47.8%, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate between 2025 and 2024 for the second quarter of the years is primarily due to a decrease in discrete tax benefits recognized in the current year. The decrease in the effective tax rate between 2025 and 2024 for the year-to-date periods is primarily the result of discrete tax benefits in the current year compared to discrete tax expenses in the prior year.

The Company is subject to periodic audits by U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. tax authorities. Currently, the Company is undergoing routine periodic audits in both U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. tax jurisdictions. It is reasonably possible that the amounts of unrecognized tax benefits could change in the next 12 months as a result of the audits; however, any payment of tax is not expected to be significant to the consolidated condensed financial statements. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2020 in the majority of tax jurisdictions.

On July 4, 2025, a subsequent event to the current quarter, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted in the U.S. The OBBBA includes significant provisions, such as the permanent extension of certain expiring provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, modifications to the international tax framework and the restoration of favorable tax treatment for certain business provisions. The legislation has multiple effective dates, with certain provisions effective in 2025 and others implemented through 2027. The Company does not expect these provisions and modifications to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

13.ACCUMULATED OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS)

Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) represents net earnings and any revenue, expenses, gains and losses that, under U.S. GAAP, are excluded from net earnings and recognized directly as a component of stockholders’ equity.

The change in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) during the quarters ended June 28, 2025 and June 29, 2024 is as follows:

14. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company measures certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis. For additional information regarding the Company’s fair value policies, refer to Note 1 in the Company’s 2024 Form 10-K.

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

The following table sets forth financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value in the consolidated condensed balance sheets and the respective pricing levels to which the fair value measurements are classified within the fair value hierarchy.

			Fair Value Measurements
			Quoted Prices With Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)
(In millions)			June 28, 2025						December 28, 2024						June 29, 2024
Financial assets:
Derivatives			$	—					$	9.3					$	4.0
Financial liabilities:
Derivatives			$	(13.0)					$	(0.7)					$	(1.0)

The fair value of foreign currency forward exchange contracts represents the estimated receipts or payments necessary to terminate the contracts. The interest rate swap was valued based on the current forward rates of the future cash flows.

Fair Value Disclosures

The Company’s financial instruments that are not recorded at fair value consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts and notes receivable, accounts payable, borrowings under revolving credit agreements and other short-term and long-term debt. The

18

carrying amount of these financial instruments is historical cost, which approximates fair value, except for the debt. The carrying value and the fair value of the Company’s debt are as follows:

(In millions)			June 28, 2025						December 28, 2024						June 29, 2024
Carrying value			$	708.5					$	648.0					$	814.7
Fair value			654.1						587.0						732.0

The fair value of the fixed rate debt was based on third-party quotes (Level 2). The fair value of the variable rate debt was calculated by discounting the future cash flows to its present value using a discount rate based on the risk-free rate of the same maturity (Level 3).

15. LITIGATION AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation

The Company operated a leather tannery in Rockford, Michigan from the early 1900s through 2009 (the “Tannery”). The Company also owns a parcel on House Street in Plainfield Township that the Company used for the disposal of Tannery byproducts until about 1970 (the "House Street" site). Beginning in the late 1950s, the Company used 3M Company’s Scotchgard™ in its processing of certain leathers at the Tannery. Until 2002 when 3M Company changed its Scotchgard™ formula, Tannery byproducts disposed of by the Company at the House Street site and other locations may have contained PFOA and/or PFOS, two chemicals in the family of compounds known as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (together, “PFAS”). PFOA and PFOS help provide non-stick, stain-resistant, and water-resistant qualities, and were used for many decades in commercial products like firefighting foams and metal plating, and in common consumer items like food wrappers, microwave popcorn bags, pizza boxes, Teflon™, carpets and Scotchgard™.

In May 2016, the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) announced a lifetime health advisory level of 70 parts per trillion (“ppt”) combined for PFOA and PFOS, which the EPA reduced in June 2022 to 0.004 ppt and 0.02 ppt for PFOA and PFOS, respectively. In January 2018, the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality (now known as the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (“EGLE”)) enacted a drinking water criterion of 70 ppt combined for PFOA and PFOS, which set an official state standard for acceptable concentrations of these contaminants in groundwater used for drinking water purposes. On August 3, 2020, Michigan changed the standards for PFOA and PFOS in drinking water to 8 and 16 ppt, respectively, and set standards for four other PFAS substances.

Civil and Regulatory Actions of EGLE and EPA

On January 10, 2018, EGLE filed a civil action against the Company in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Michigan under the federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976 (“RCRA”) and Parts 201 and 31 of the Michigan Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act (“NREPA”) alleging that the Company’s past and present handling, storage, treatment, transportation and/or disposal of solid waste at the Company’s properties has resulted in releases of PFAS at levels exceeding applicable Michigan cleanup criteria for PFOA and PFOS (the "EGLE Action"). Plainfield and Algoma Townships intervened in the EGLE Action alleging claims under RCRA, NREPA, the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (“CERCLA”) and common law nuisance.

On February 3, 2020, the parties entered into a consent decree resolving the EGLE Action, which was approved by U.S. District Judge Janet T. Neff on February 19, 2020 (the “Consent Decree”). Under the Consent Decree, the Company agreed to pay for an extension of Plainfield Township’s municipal water system to more than 1,000 properties in Plainfield and Algoma Townships, subject to an aggregate cap of $69.5 million. The Company also agreed to continue maintaining water filters for certain homeowners, resample certain residential wells for PFAS, continue remediation at the Company’s Tannery property and House Street site, and conduct further investigations and monitoring to assess the presence of PFAS in area groundwater. The Company’s activities under the Consent Decree are not materially impacted by either the drinking water standards that became effective on August 3, 2020, or the EPA’s revised advisory levels issued in June 2022.

On December 19, 2018, the Company filed a third-party complaint against 3M Company seeking, among other things, recovery of the Company’s remediation and other costs incurred in defense of the EGLE Action (the “3M Action"). On June 20, 2019, the 3M Company filed a counterclaim against the Company in response to the 3M Action, seeking, among other things, contractual and common law indemnity and contribution under CERCLA and Part 201 of NREPA. On February 20, 2020, the Company and 3M Company entered into a settlement agreement resolving the 3M Action, under which 3M Company paid the Company a lump sum amount of $55.0 million during the first quarter of 2020.

On January 10, 2018, the EPA entered a Unilateral Administrative Order (the “Order”) under Section 106(a) of CERCLA, 42 U.S.C. § 9606(a) with an effective date of February 1, 2018. The Order pertained to specified removal actions at the Company's

19

Tannery and House Street sites, including certain time critical removal actions subsequently identified in an April 29, 2019 letter from the EPA, to abate the actual or threatened release of hazardous substances at or from the sites. On October 28, 2019, the EPA and the Company entered into an Administrative Settlement and Order on Consent (“AOC”) that supersedes the Order and addresses the agreed-upon removal actions outlined in the Order. The Company has completed the activities required by the AOC.

The Company discusses its reserve for remediation costs in the environmental liabilities section below.

Individual and Class Action Litigation

Beginning in late 2017, individual lawsuits and three putative class action lawsuits were filed against the Company that raise a variety of claims, including claims related to property, remediation, and human health effects. The three putative class action lawsuits were subsequently refiled in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Michigan as a single consolidated putative class action lawsuit. 3M Company has been named as a co-defendant in the individual lawsuits and consolidated putative class action lawsuit. In addition, the current owner of a former landfill and gravel mining operation sued the Company seeking damages and cost recovery for property damage allegedly caused by the Company’s disposal of tannery waste containing PFAS. The owner of another former landfill filed notice threatening suit and sent a demand letter to the Company seeking recovery for damages allegedly caused by the Company’s disposal of tannery waste containing PFAS (this notice, the former landfill and gravel mining suit and the individual lawsuits and putative class action, collectively, the “Litigation Matters”).

On January 11, 2022, the Company and 3M Company entered into a master settlement agreement with the law firm representing certain of the plaintiffs in the individual lawsuits included in the Litigation Matters, and each of these plaintiffs subsequently agreed to participate in the settlement. These plaintiffs’ lawsuits were dismissed with prejudice on or around April 25, 2022.

On December 9, 2021, the Company and 3M Company reached a settlement in principle to resolve certain of the remaining individual lawsuits included in the Litigation Matters, and the parties entered into definitive settlement agreements in March 2022. These plaintiffs’ lawsuits were dismissed with prejudice on June 14, 2022. The last remaining individual action was dismissed without prejudice on June 24, 2022.

In addition, in September 2022, the parties to the putative class action filed a motion for preliminary approval of a proposed class action settlement seeking to resolve the putative class action plaintiffs’ claims. On March 29, 2023, the court presiding over the putative class action granted final approval of the proposed settlement and dismissed the lawsuit with prejudice.

The last remaining Litigation Matter, the lawsuit filed by the current owner of a former landfill and gravel mining operations, was pending in Michigan state court but has been administratively stayed by the Court.

There were no developments during the first two quarters of 2025 that required the Company to change the amount accrued for the Litigation Matters described above. The Company made related payments of $1.8 million in connection with the Litigation Matters described above during the first two quarters of 2025. As of June 28, 2025, the Company had recorded liabilities of $8.4 million for certain of the Litigation Matters described above which are recorded as other accrued liabilities and other liabilities in the consolidated condensed balance sheets.

In December 2018, the Company filed a lawsuit against certain of its historic liability insurers, seeking to compel them to provide a defense against the Litigation Matters on the Company's behalf and coverage for remediation efforts undertaken by, and indemnity provided by, the Company. Following the last recovery payment received, the lawsuit was dismissed in December 2024. The Company recognized certain recoveries from legacy insurance policies in 2024.

Other Litigation

The Company is also involved in litigation incidental to its business and is a party to legal actions and claims, including, but not limited to, those related to employment, intellectual property, and consumer related matters. Some of the legal proceedings include claims for compensatory as well as punitive damages. While the final outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, considering, among other things, the meritorious legal defenses available to the Company and reserves for liabilities that the Company has recorded, along with applicable insurance, it is management’s opinion that the outcome of these items are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Environmental Liabilities

The following is a summary of the activity with respect to the environmental remediation reserve established by the Company:

			Year-To-Date Ended
(In millions)			June 28, 2025						June 29, 2024
Remediation liability at beginning of the year			$	39.7					$	57.9
Changes in estimate			2.6						3.8
Amounts paid			(7.5)						(15.5)
Remediation liability at the end of the quarter			$	34.8					$	46.2

The reserve balance as of June 28, 2025 includes $20.2 million that is expected to be paid within the next twelve months and is recorded as a current obligation in other accrued liabilities, with the remaining $14.6 million expected to be paid over the course of up to 25 years, recorded in other liabilities.

The Company's remediation activity at the Tannery property, House Street site and other relevant operations or disposal sites is ongoing. Although the Consent Decree has made near-term costs more clear, it is difficult to estimate the long-term cost of environmental compliance and remediation given the uncertainties regarding the interpretation and enforcement of applicable environmental laws and regulations, the extent of environmental contamination and the existence of alternative cleanup methods. Future developments may occur that could materially change the Company’s current cost estimates, including, but not limited to: (i) changes in the information available regarding the environmental impact of the Company’s operations and products; (ii) changes in environmental regulations, changes in permissible levels of specific compounds in drinking water sources, or changes in enforcement theories and policies, including efforts to recover natural resource damages; (iii) new and evolving analytical and remediation techniques; (iv) changes to the form of remediation; (v) success in allocating liability to other potentially responsible parties; and (vi) the financial viability of other potentially responsible parties and third-party indemnitors. For locations at which remediation activity is largely ongoing, the Company cannot estimate a possible loss or range of loss in excess of the associated established reserves for the reasons described above. The Company adjusts recorded liabilities as further information develops or circumstances change.

The Work Group’s revenue increase was primarily driven by increases of $4.3 million from Cat®, $1.4 million from Harley-Davidson® and $1.4 million from HYTEST®, partially offset by decreases of $3.0 million from Wolverine® and $1.6 million from Bates®.

Changes in foreign exchange rates increased revenue by $5.2 million during the second quarter of 2025.

Revenue was $886.5 million for the first two quarters of 2025, representing an increase of $66.4 million compared to the first two quarters of 2024. The change in revenue reflected a $86.5 million, or 14.5%, increase from the Active Group, a $12.8 million, or 6.6%, decrease from the Work Group, and a $7.3 million, or 24.9%, decrease from the Other category. The Active Group’s revenue increase was primarily driven by increases of $72.0 million from Saucony® and $32.8 million from Merrell®, partially offset by decreases of $9.9 million from Sweaty Betty® and $8.4 million from Chaco®. The Work Group’s revenue decrease was primarily driven by decreases of $6.8 million from Wolverine®, $3.3 million from Cat® and $2.1 million from Bates®. The decrease in Other revenue was primarily driven by decreases of $4.5 million from Sperry® and $2.6 million from joint venture and royalty revenue recorded at the corporate level. Changes in foreign exchange rates increased revenue by $0.5 million during the first two quarters of 2025. Direct-to-consumer revenue decreased during the first two quarters of 2025 by $11.8 million, or 5.4%, compared to the first two quarters of 2024.

GROSS MARGIN

Gross margin was 47.2% in the second quarter of 2025 compared to 43.1% in the second quarter of 2024. Gross margin was 47.2% in the first two quarters of 2025 compared to 44.5% in the first two quarters of 2024. The gross margin increase during 2025 was primarily due to healthier sales mix, lower promotional activity and the benefit of supply chain cost initiatives.

25

OPERATING EXPENSES

Operating expenses increased $29.2 million, from $154.1 million in the second quarter of 2024 to $183.3 million in the second quarter of 2025. The increase was primarily driven by higher environmental and other related costs, net of insurance recoveries ($16.6 million), higher advertising costs ($10.6 million), higher general and administrative costs ($6.8 million), higher selling costs ($2.5 million), higher incentive compensation costs ($2.0 million) and higher distribution costs ($0.9 million), partially offset by lower reorganization costs ($7.0 million) and lower impairment of long-lived and intangible assets ($3.2 million). Environmental and other related costs were $0.9 million and $10.8 million in the second quarter of 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Operating expenses increased $19.8 million, from $338.6 million in the first two quarters of 2024 to $358.4 million in the first two quarters of 2025. The increase was primarily driven by higher environmental and other related costs, net of insurance recoveries ($18.1 million), higher advertising costs ($15.6 million), higher general and administrative costs ($3.3 million), higher incentive compensation costs ($1.8 million), higher selling costs ($1.0 million) and higher distribution costs ($0.5 million), partially offset by lower reorganization costs ($11.2 million) and lower impairment of long-lived and intangible assets ($9.3 million). Environmental and other related costs were $4.0 million and $12.7 million in the first two quarters of 2025 and 2024, respectively.

INTEREST, OTHER AND INCOME TAXES

Net interest expense was $8.5 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to $11.9 million in the second quarter of 2024. Net interest expense was $16.5 million in the first two quarters of 2025 compared to $23.9 million in the first two quarters of 2024. The decrease in interest expense for both the quarter-to-date and year-to-date periods is primarily due to lower average principal balances of variable rate debt and lower weighted average interest rates on variable rate debt.

Other income was $1.4 million in the second quarter of 2025, compared to other income of $0.8 million in the second quarter of 2024. Other income was $2.9 million in the first two quarters of 2025, compared to other income of $1.6 million in the first two quarters of 2024.

The effective tax rates in the second quarter of 2025 and 2024 were 13.7% and 13.1%, respectively. The effective tax rates in the first two quarters of 2025 and 2024 were 12.0% and 47.8%, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate between 2025 and 2024 for the second quarter of the years is primarily due to a decrease in discrete tax benefits recognized in the current year. The decrease in the effective tax rate between 2025 and 2024 for the year-to-date periods is primarily the result of discrete tax benefits in the current year compared to discrete tax expenses in the prior year.

Active Group

The Active Group’s revenue increased $49.6 million, or 16.2%, in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024.

The Active Group’s revenue increased $86.5 million, or 14.5%, in the first two quarters of 2025 compared to the first two quarters of 2024. The revenue increase was primarily driven by increases of $72.0 million from Saucony® and $32.8 million from Merrell®, partially offset by decreases of $9.9 million from Sweaty Betty® and $8.4 million from Chaco®. The Saucony® increase was primarily driven by sales in the international channel and the strength and expanded sales of lifestyle product, including ProGrid Omni 9 and Ride Millennium. The Merrell® increase was primarily due to growth in the core brand franchises, including Moab 3, Moab Speed, and Speed Strike, particularly in the wholesale and international channels. The Sweaty Betty® decrease was primarily driven by softer consumer demand in direct-to-consumer and wholesale channels, lower closeout sales compared to the prior year and timing of shipments. The Chaco® decrease was primarily due to lower closeout sales compared to the prior year and softer consumer demand.

The Active Group’s operating profit increased $22.6 million, or 53.7%, in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024. The operating profit increase was due to revenue increases and a 500 basis point increase in gross margin, partially offset by a $17.3 million increase in selling, general and administrative expenses. The Active Group’s operating profit increased $44.5 million, or 56.8%, in the first two quarters of 2025 compared to the first two quarters of 2024. The operating profit increase was due to revenue increases and a 420 basis point increase in gross margin, partially offset by a $23.2 million increase in selling, general and administrative expenses. The increase in gross margin in the current year periods was primarily due to healthier sales mix, lower promotional activity and the benefit of supply chain cost initiatives. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses in the current year periods was primarily due to higher advertising costs, selling costs and employee costs.

Work Group

The Work Group’s revenue increased $2.5 million, or 2.4%, during the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024. The revenue increase was primarily driven by increases of $4.3 million from Cat®, $1.4 million from Harley-Davidson® and $1.4 million from HYTEST®, partially offset by decreases of $3.0 million from Wolverine® and $1.6 million from Bates®. The Cat® increase was primarily due to strong performance in the international and U.S. wholesale channels. The Harley-Davidson® increase was primarily due to timing of shipments in the U.S. wholesale channel. The HYTEST® increase was primarily due to growth in the U.S. wholesale channel. The Wolverine® decrease was primarily due to softer consumer demand in the U.S. direct-to-consumer and U.S. wholesale channels.

The Work Group’s revenue decreased $12.8 million, or 6.6%, during the first two quarters of 2025 compared to the first two quarters of 2024. The revenue decrease was primarily driven by decreases of $6.8 million from Wolverine®, $3.3 million from Cat® and $2.1 million from Bates®. The Wolverine® decrease was primarily due to timing of shipments in the U.S. and

27

international channels and softer consumer demand in the U.S. direct-to-consumer and U.S. wholesale channels. The Cat® decrease was primarily due to timing of shipments in the U.S. and international channels, partially offset by strong performance in the U.S. wholesale channel. The Bates® decrease was primarily due to softer consumer demand in the U.S. wholesale channel and lower closeout sales compared to the prior year.

The Work Group’s operating profit increased $5.7 million, or 39.0%, in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024. The operating profit increase was due to revenue increases, a 270 basis point increase in gross margin and a $1.9 million decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses. The Work Group’s operating profit increased $0.1 million, or 0.4%, in the first two quarters of 2025 compared to the first two quarters of 2024. The operating profit increase was due to a 90 basis point increase in gross margin and a $3.1 million decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses, partially offset by revenue decreases. The increase in gross margin in the current year periods was primarily due to favorable sales mix, lower promotional activity, and the benefit of supply chain cost initiatives. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses in the current year period was primarily due to lower distribution costs, advertising costs and selling expenses.

Other

The Other category’s revenue decreased $3.1 million, or 21.7%, in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024. The revenue decrease was primarily driven by a decrease of $1.8 million from joint venture and royalty revenue recorded at the corporate level, $0.9 million from Hush Puppies®, due to timing in the international channel, and $0.4 million from Sperry®, due to the divestiture of the business effective January 10, 2024. The Other category’s revenue decreased $7.3 million, or 24.9%, in the first two quarters of 2025 compared to the first two quarters of 2024. The revenue decrease was primarily driven by decreases of $4.5 million from Sperry®, due to the divestiture of the business effective January 10, 2024, and $2.6 million from joint venture and royalty revenue recorded at the corporate level.

Other operating profit decreased $0.1 million, or 1.2%, in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024. Other operating profit increased $3.2 million, or 25.8%, in the first two quarters of 2025 compared to the first two quarters of 2024. The operating profit increase in the first two quarters of 2025 was primarily due to higher Hush Puppies® royalty income on higher revenue and losses incurred in the prior year associated with the Sperry® business.

Corporate

Corporate expenses increased $16.6 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024, primarily due to higher environmental and other related costs ($16.6 million), higher software licensing costs ($2.4 million), higher incentive compensation costs ($1.5 million) and higher inventory reserves recorded at the corporate level ($1.1 million), partially offset by lower reorganization activities ($7.0 million) and lower impairment of long-lived and intangible assets ($3.2 million).

Corporate expenses increased $13.4 million in the first two quarters of 2025 compared to the first two quarters of 2024, primarily due to higher environmental and other related costs ($18.1 million), business model change gain recorded in the prior year that did not reoccur ($6.5 million), higher software licensing costs ($3.1 million), higher inventory reserves recorded at the corporate level ($1.1 million) and higher incentive compensation costs ($1.0 million), partially offset by lower reorganization activities ($11.2 million) and lower impairment of long-lived and intangible assets ($9.3 million).

(1)Amounts are net of both borrowings, if any, and outstanding standby letters of credit in accordance with the terms of the revolving credit facility.

Liquidity

Cash and cash equivalents of $141.0 million as of June 28, 2025 were $7.3 million lower compared to June 29, 2024. The decrease is due primarily to repayments less borrowings of debt of $107.5 million, cash dividends paid of $33.0 million, additions to property, plant and equipment of $23.1 million, and employee taxes paid under stock-based compensation of $9.4 million, partially offset by cash provided by operating activities of $151.4 million and proceeds from divestitures of

28

$9.9 million. The Company had $653.3 million of borrowing capacity available under the Revolving Facility as of June 28, 2025. Cash and cash equivalents located in foreign jurisdictions totaled $106.0 million as of June 28, 2025.

Cash flow from operating activities is expected to be sufficient to meet the Company’s working capital needs for the foreseeable future. Any excess cash flow from operating activities is expected to be used to fund organic growth initiatives, reduce debt, pay dividends and for general corporate purposes.

The Company did not repurchase shares of its common stock during the first two quarters of both 2025 and 2024.

A detailed discussion of environmental remediation costs is found in Note 15 to the consolidated condensed financial statements. The Company has established a reserve for estimated environmental remediation costs based upon an evaluation of currently available facts with respect to each individual affected site. As of June 28, 2025, the Company has a reserve of $34.8 million, of which $20.2 million is expected to be paid in the next 12 months and is recorded as a current obligation in other accrued liabilities and the remaining $14.6 million is recorded in other liabilities and is expected to be paid over the course of up to 25 years. The Company's remediation activity at its former Tannery site and sites where the Company disposed of Tannery byproducts is ongoing. It is difficult to estimate the cost of environmental compliance and remediation given the uncertainties regarding the interpretation and enforcement of applicable environmental laws and regulations, the extent of environmental contamination and the existence of alternative cleanup methods.

Developments may occur that could materially change the Company’s current cost estimates. The Company adjusts recorded liabilities as further information develops or circumstances change.

Financing Arrangements

The Company’s credit agreement provides for a term loan A facility (the “Term Facility”) and for a revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility” and, together with the Term Facility, the “Senior Credit Facilities”). The maturity date of the loans under the Senior Credit Facilities is October 21, 2026. The credit agreement provides for a debt capacity of up to an aggregate debt amount (including outstanding term loan principal and revolver commitment amounts in addition to permitted incremental debt) not to exceed $2.0 billion unless certain specified conditions set forth in the credit agreement are met. The Revolving Facility allows the Company to borrow up to an aggregate amount of $800.0 million.

The Company’s $550.0 million 4.0% senior notes issued on August 26, 2021 are due on August 15, 2029. Related interest payments are due semi-annually. The senior notes are guaranteed by substantially all of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries.

As of June 28, 2025, the Company was in compliance with all covenants and performance ratios under the credit agreement.

The Company’s debt at June 28, 2025 totaled $708.5 million compared to $648.0 million at December 28, 2024. The Company expects to use the current borrowings to fund organic growth initiatives, pay dividends and for general corporate purposes. The increased debt position is due to higher borrowings under the Revolving Facility mainly resulting from operating cash outflows.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes cash flow activities:

			Year-To-Date Ended
(In millions)			June 28, 2025						June 29, 2024
Net cash used in operating activities			$	(39.2)					$	(10.5)
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities			(11.9)						89.9
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities			35.3						(117.6)
Additions to property, plant and equipment			(11.0)						(8.1)
Depreciation and amortization			12.5						13.3

Operating Activities

The principal source of the Company’s operating cash flow is net earnings, including cash receipts from the sale of the Company’s products, net of costs of goods sold.

For the first two quarters of 2025, an increase in net working capital represented a use of cash of $93.2 million. Working capital balances were unfavorably impacted by an increase in accounts receivable of $38.0 million, an increase in inventories of $68.3 million, an increase in other operating assets of $8.7 million, and a decrease in other operating liabilities of $0.5 million, partially offset by an increase in accounts payable of $22.1 million. Operating cash flows included adjustments for environmental and other related costs, net of cash payments and recoveries received, cash outflow of $6.8 million, depreciation

29

and amortization expense adjustment of $12.5 million, stock-based compensation expense adjustment of $12.6 million, pension expense adjustment of $0.3 million, and deferred income taxes of $0.1 million.

A quarterly dividend of $0.10 per share was declared on July 30, 2025 to stockholders of record on October 1, 2025.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The preparation of the Company’s consolidated condensed financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("U.S. GAAP"), requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates these estimates. Estimates are based on historical experience and on 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 values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Historically, actual results have not been materially different from the Company’s estimates. However, actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

The Company has identified the critical accounting policies used in determining estimates and assumptions in the amounts reported. For information regarding our critical accounting policies refer to Part II, Item 7: “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations” in the Company’s 2024 Form 10-K. Management believes there have been no material changes in those critical accounting policies.

ITEM 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company faces market risk to the extent that changes in foreign currency exchange rates affect the Company’s foreign assets, liabilities and inventory purchase commitments. The Company manages these risks by attempting to denominate contractual and other foreign arrangements in U.S. dollars. The Company does not believe that there has been a material change in the nature of the Company’s primary market risk exposures, including the categories of market risk to which the Company is exposed and the particular markets that present the primary risk of loss to the Company. As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company does not know of any material change in the near-term in the general nature of its primary market risk exposure.

Under the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, the Company is required to recognize all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. Derivatives that are not qualifying hedges must be adjusted to fair value through earnings. If a derivative is a qualifying hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of derivatives are either offset against the change in fair value of the hedged assets, liabilities or firm commitments through earnings or recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) until the hedged item is recognized in earnings.

The Company conducts wholesale operations outside of the U.S. in Canada, continental Europe, the United Kingdom, Hong Kong, China and Mexico where the functional currencies are primarily the Canadian dollar, euro, British pound, Hong Kong dollar, Chinese renminbi and Mexican peso, respectively. The Company utilizes foreign currency forward exchange contracts to manage the volatility associated primarily with U.S. dollar inventory purchases made by non-U.S. wholesale operations in the normal course of business as well as to manage foreign currency translation exposure. As of June 28, 2025 and June 29, 2024, the Company had outstanding forward currency exchange contracts to purchase primarily U.S. dollars in the amounts of $244.8 million and $257.9 million, respectively, with maturities ranging up to 531 and 503 days, respectively.

The Company also has sourcing locations in Asia, where financial statements reflect the U.S. dollar as the functional currency. However, operating costs are paid in the local currency. Revenue generated by the Company from third-party foreign licensees is calculated in the local currencies but paid in U.S. dollars. Accordingly, the Company’s reported results are subject to foreign currency exposure for this stream of revenue and expenses. Any associated foreign currency gains or losses on the settlement of local currency amounts are reflected within the Company's consolidated condensed statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

Assets and liabilities outside the U.S. are primarily located in the United Kingdom, Canada and the Netherlands. The Company’s investments in foreign subsidiaries with a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar are generally considered long-term. As of June 28, 2025, a weaker U.S. dollar compared to certain foreign currencies increased the value of these investments in net assets by $25.3 million from their value as of December 28, 2024. As of June 29, 2024, a stronger U.S. dollar compared to certain foreign currencies decreased the value of these investments in net assets by $10.9 million from their value as of December 30, 2023.

The Company is exposed to interest rate changes primarily as a result of interest expense on the term loan borrowings and any borrowings under the Revolving Facility. The Company’s total variable-rate debt was $162.5 million at June 28, 2025.

The Company does not enter into contracts for speculative or trading purposes, nor is it a party to any leveraged derivative instruments.

ITEM 4.    Controls and Procedures

An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based on, and as of the time of such evaluation, the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Securities Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e), were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report. There have been no changes during the quarter ended June 28, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
