**Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition** 

On May 7, 2026, Clarus Corporation (the "Company") issued a press release announcing its results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026 (the "Press Release"). A copy of the Press Release and an investor presentation regarding the Company's results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026 (the "Presentation") are furnished as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.

The Press Release and the Presentation contain the non-GAAP measures: (i) adjusted gross margin and adjusted gross profit, (ii) adjusted net income (loss) and related earnings (loss) per diluted share, (iii) earnings before interest, taxes, other income or expense, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"), EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA margin, and (iv) free cash flow (defined as net cash used in operating activities less capital expenditures). The Company believes that the presentation of certain non-GAAP measures, i.e.: (i) adjusted gross margin and adjusted gross profit, (ii) adjusted net income (loss) and related earnings (loss) per diluted share, (iii) EBITDA, EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin, and (iv) free cash flow, provides useful information to understand its ongoing operations and enables investors to focus on period-over-period operating performance, and thereby enhances the overall understanding of the Company's current financial performance relative to past performance and provides, along with the nearest GAAP measures, a baseline for modeling future earnings expectations. Non-GAAP measures are reconciled to comparable GAAP financial measures within the Press Release and the Presentation. We do not provide a reconciliation of the non-GAAP guidance measures adjusted EBITDA and/or adjusted EBITDA margin for the fiscal year 2026 to net income for the fiscal year 2026, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting certain types of expenses and gains, without unreasonable effort, which affect net income but not adjusted EBITDA and/or adjusted EBITDA margin. The Company cautions that non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the Company's reported GAAP results. Additionally, the Company notes that there can be no assurance that the above referenced non-GAAP financial measures are comparable to similarly titled financial measures used by other publicly traded companies.

The information in Item 2.02 of this Current Report on Form 8-K (including Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2) shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Act of 1934, as amended, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

**Clarus Reports First Quarter 2026 Results**

*Grew Quarterly Sales 2.5% and Increased Gross Margin 240 Basis Points*

 

*Retained Jefferies LLC to Assist the Company with Evaluating Strategic Alternatives*

 

SALT LAKE CITY, May 7, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Clarus Corporation (NASDAQ: CLAR) ("Clarus" and/or the "Company"), a global company focused on the outdoor enthusiast markets, reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026.

**First Quarter 2026 Financial Summary vs. Same Year**-**Ago Quarter**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Sales of $61.9 million compared to $60.4 million.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Gross margin was 36.8% compared to 34.4%; adjusted
gross margin of 36.8% compared to 34.6%.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Net loss of $3.3 million with a net loss margin
of (5.3)%, or $(0.09) per diluted share, compared to net loss of $5.2 million with a net loss margin of (8.7)%, or $(0.14) per diluted
share.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Adjusted net income of $0.7 million, or $0.02
per diluted share, compared to adjusted net loss of $(1.2) million, or $(0.03) per diluted share.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Adjusted EBITDA of $(1.1) million with an adjusted
EBITDA margin of (1.8)%, compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $(1.4) million with an adjusted EBITDA margin of (2.3)%.

**Management Commentary**

"During the first quarter, we advanced key initiatives and delivered improved revenue and adjusted EBITDA year-over-year," said Warren Kanders, Clarus' Executive Chairman. "While geopolitical and macro factors continue to cause uncertainty and disruption, we remain focused on operational execution and simplification aligned with our strategic roadmap. Our Outdoor business continued to perform well despite challenging market conditions, with segment topline and earnings up versus last year's first quarter, reflecting the steps we have taken to enhance inventory quality, prioritize our most profitable categories, and steadily shift toward a more premium, full-price business model. Importantly, our Apparel category continues to show strength, delivering sales growth for the fourth consecutive quarter.

At Adventure, we delivered solid first quarter results, highlighted by increased revenue and gross profit. Revenue grew 5.9% and gross margin increased 260 basis points compared to the prior year, with margin expansion driven by price growth, customer mix, and reduced incentives. The near-term outlook for Adventure remains challenging due to geopolitical and macro factors, including a difficult consumer environment in Australia. Over the long term, we continue to believe the Adventure segment will benefit from the structural improvements we have made over the last several quarters, with profitability recovering as new products launch and demand normalizes."

![](tm2613890d1_ex99-1img001.jpg)

Mr. Kanders continued, "Overall, we believe the sum of the parts of our two segments, Outdoor and Adventure, exceeds the Company's current market valuation, and we are committed to seeking to maximize long-term value for our shareholders. As such, the Board has initiated, in conjunction with our management team, a review of strategic alternatives designed to enhance shareholder value. We are undertaking this process from a position of strength, supported by a debt-free balance sheet and significant liquidity."

**First Quarter 2026 Financial Results**

On a consolidated basis, sales in the first quarter were $61.9 million compared to $60.4 million in the same year-ago quarter, up 2.5%. Sales in the Outdoor segment increased 1.2% to $44.9 million, compared to $44.3 million in the year-ago quarter. Sales in the Adventure segment increased 5.9% to $17.1 million, compared to $16.1 million in the year-ago quarter.

Sales in the Adventure segment increased due to a favorable wholesale market in Australia for Rhino-Rack and MAXTRAX, partially offset by decreases in North America. Sales in the Outdoor segment increased due to greater global wholesale and independent global distributor revenues. This increase was partially offset by lower PIEPS revenue due to its sale last July and lower global direct-to-consumer revenue.

Gross margin in the first quarter was 36.8% compared to 34.4% in the year-ago quarter. The gross margin increase was primarily attributable to higher volumes and a favorable product mix at both the Adventure and Outdoor segments.

Selling, general and administrative expenses in the first quarter were $26.6 million compared to $26.6 million in the same year-ago quarter. First quarter 2026 expenses reflect lower wages, marketing costs and other expense reduction initiatives across both segments to manage costs and the removal of PIEPS due to its sale during 2025, partially offset by higher outside services and depreciation.

Net loss in the first quarter of 2026 was $(3.3) million with a net loss margin of (5.3)%, or $(0.09) per diluted share, compared to net loss of $(5.2) million with a net loss margin of (8.7)%, or $(0.14) per diluted share, in the year-ago quarter.

Adjusted net income in the first quarter of 2026 was $0.7 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, compared to adjusted net loss of $(1.2) million, or $(0.03) per diluted share, in the year-ago quarter. Adjusted net income (loss) excludes amortization of intangibles, disposal of internally developed software, restructuring charges, transaction costs, inventory fair value adjustment from purchase accounting, and stock-based compensation.

Adjusted EBITDA in the first quarter was $(1.1) million, or an adjusted EBITDA margin of (1.8)%, compared to adjusted EBITDA of $(1.4) million, or an adjusted EBITDA margin of (2.3)%, in the same year-ago quarter.

![](tm2613890d1_ex99-1img001.jpg)

Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was $(4.1) million compared to net cash used in operating activities of $(2.1) million in the prior year quarter. Capital expenditures in the first quarter of 2026 were $1.6 million compared to $1.2 million in the prior year quarter. Free cash flow for the first quarter of 2026 was $(5.7) million compared to $(3.3) million in the prior year quarter.

**Liquidity at March 31, 2026 vs. December 31, 2025**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Cash and cash equivalents totaled $29.8 million
compared to $36.7 million.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· The balance sheet was debt free at the end of
both periods.

**Strategic Review**

The Company announced today that its Board of Directors initiated a comprehensive review of strategic alternatives to enhance shareholder value. The review includes a range of potential strategic alternatives, including, among other things, the sale of all or part of the business or other strategic or financial transactions involving the Company. The review has no deadline or definitive timetable and there can be no assurance that the review will result in any transaction or other strategic outcome. The Company does not intend to disclose further developments regarding on the review unless and until it determines that further disclosure is appropriate or required. Clarus has retained Jefferies LLC as its financial advisor.

**2026 Outlook**

The Company is revising its fiscal year 2026 outlook and now expects sales to range between $245 million and $255 million, compared to its prior outlook of $255 million to $265 million, and adjusted EBITDA to range between approximately $3 million and $5 million, compared to its prior outlook of $9 million to $11 million. The revised adjusted EBITDA guidance now includes an expected decline in our Adventure Segment in Australia and approximately $3 million of legal and regulatory expense for the remainder of 2026. At the midpoint of the revised revenue and adjusted EBITDA outlook, adjusted EBITDA margin is expected to be 1.6%. Capital expenditures are expected to remain between $6 million and $7 million, consistent with the Company's prior outlook, and free cash flow is now expected to be flat for the full year 2026, compared to the Company's prior outlook of $3 million to $4 million. For the second quarter of 2026, sales are expected to range between $51 million and $53 million, and adjusted EBITDA is expected to be approximately a $3 million loss. Clarus has not provided net income guidance due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting certain types of expenses and gains, which affect net income but not adjusted EBITDA and/or adjusted EBITDA margin. Therefore, we do not provide reconciliations of adjusted EBITDA and/or adjusted EBITDA margin guidance to net income guidance for fiscal year 2026.

**Conference Call**

The Company will hold a conference call today at 5:00 p.m. Eastern time to discuss its first quarter 2026 results. To access the call by phone, please dial (646)-307-1963 (domestic) or (800)-715-9871 (international) and ask to be joined into the Clarus Corporation call.

**Use of Non-GAAP Measures**

The Company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). This press release contains the non-GAAP measures: (i) adjusted gross margin and adjusted gross profit, (ii) adjusted net income (loss) and related earnings (loss) per diluted share, (iii) earnings before interest, taxes, other income or expense, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"), EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA margin, and (iv) free cash flow (defined as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures). The Company believes that the presentation of certain non-GAAP measures, i.e.: (i) adjusted gross margin and adjusted gross profit, (ii) adjusted net income (loss) and related earnings (loss) per diluted share, (iii) EBITDA, EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin, and (iv) free cash flow, provides useful information for the understanding of its ongoing operations and enables investors to focus on period-over-period operating performance, and thereby enhances the user's overall understanding of the Company's current financial performance relative to past performance and provides, along with the nearest GAAP measures, a baseline for modeling future earnings expectations. Non-GAAP measures are reconciled to comparable GAAP financial measures within this press release. We do not provide a reconciliation of the non-GAAP guidance measures adjusted EBITDA and/or adjusted EBITDA margin for the fiscal year 2026 to net income for the fiscal year 2026, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting certain types of expenses and gains, without unreasonable effort, which affect net income but not adjusted EBITDA and/or adjusted EBITDA margin. The Company cautions that non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the Company's reported GAAP results. Additionally, the Company notes that there can be no assurance that the above referenced non-GAAP financial measures are comparable to similarly titled financial measures used by other publicly traded companies.

6 February 2023 PAGE 2 Forward - Looking Statements Please note that in this presentation we may use words such as "appears," "anticipates," "believes," "plans," "expects," "int end s," "future," and similar expressions which constitute forward - looking statements within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward - looking statem ents are made based on our expectations and beliefs concerning future events impacting the Company and therefore involve a number of risks and uncertainties. We caution that forward - looking statements are not guarantees and that actual results could differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward - looking statements. Potential risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results of operations or financial condition of the Company to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward - looking statements in this presentation, include, but are not limited to, risks and uncertaintie s related to the Company's review of strategic alternatives, including the timing and outcome of the review, whether the review results in any transaction or other strategic outcome, and the potential impact of the review on the Company's business and operations, as well as those risks and uncertainties more fully described from time to time in the Company's public reports filed with the Securities and Exchange C omm ission, including under the section titled "Risk Factors" in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10 - K, and/or Quarterly Reports on Form 10 - Q, as well as in the Company's Current Reports on Form 8 - K. All forward - looking statements included in this presentation are based upon information available to the Company as of the date of this presentation and speak only as of the date hereof. We assume no obligation to up date any forward - looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this presentation. Non - GAAP Financial Measures The Company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). This pre sen tation contains the non - GAAP measures: (i) adjusted gross margin and adjusted gross profit, (ii) adjusted net income (loss) and related earnings (loss) per diluted share, (iii) earnings before interest, tax es, other income or expense, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"), EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA margin, and (iv) free cash flow (defined as net cash provided by operating activities le ss capital expenditures). The Company believes that the presentation of certain non - GAAP measures, i.e.: (i) adjusted gross margin and adjusted gross profit, (ii) adjusted net income (loss) and related earnings (loss) per diluted sh are , (iii) EBITDA, EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin, and (iv) free cash flow, provide useful information for the understanding of its ongoing operations and enable s i nvestors to focus on period - over - period operating performance, and thereby enhances the user's overall understanding of the Company's current financial performance relative to past performance and pro vid es, along with the nearest GAAP measures, a baseline for modeling future earnings expectations. Non - GAAP measures are reconciled to comparable GAAP financial measures within this presentation. We do no t provide a reconciliation of the non - GAAP guidance measures adjusted EBITDA and/or adjusted EBITDA margin for the fiscal year 2026 to net income for the fiscal year 2026, the most comparable GAA P f inancial measure, due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting certain types of expenses and gains, without unreasonable effort, which affect net income but not adjusted EBITDA and/or adjusted EBITDA margi n. The Company cautions that non - GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the Company's reported GAAP results. Additionally, the Company notes that there can be no assurance that the above referenced non - GAAP financial measures are comparable to similarly titled financial measures used by other publicly traded companies. Market and Industry Data The market and industry data used throughout this presentation was obtained from various sources, including the Company's own re search and estimates, surveys or studies conducted by third parties and industry or general publications and forecasts. Industry publications, surveys and forecasts generally state that they have o bta ined information from sources believed to be reliable, but there can be no assurance as to the accuracy and completeness of such information. While the Company believes that each of these surveys, studies, publ ica tions and forecasts is reliable, it has not independently verified such data and the Company is not making any representation as to the accuracy of such information. Similarly, the Company believes its internal re search and estimates are reliable but it has not been verified by any independent sources. In addition, while the Company believes that the industry and market information included herein is generally reliab le, such information is inherently imprecise. While the Company is not aware of any misstatements regarding the industry and market data presented herein, its estimates involve risks and uncertainties and are sub ject to change based on various factors, including those discussed under the heading "Forward - Looking Statements" above.
