NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

*(Dollars in thousands, except per share)*

 

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 28, 2025 may not be indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2025. These financial statements have been prepared on a basis that is substantially consistent with the accounting principles applied in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

<u>Organization:</u> 

Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. (the "Company") is principally engaged in the design, manufacture, and sale of firearms to domestic customers. Approximately 99% of sales are from firearms. Export sales accounted for approximately 5% of total sales for each of the six month periods ended June 28, 2025 and June 29, 2024, respectively. The Company's design and manufacturing operations are located in the United States and almost all product content is domestic. The Company's firearms are sold through a select number of independent wholesale distributors, principally to the commercial sporting market.

The Company also manufactures investment castings made from steel alloys and metal injection molding ("MIM") parts for internal use in its firearms and for sale to unaffiliated, third-party customers. Approximately 1% of sales are from the castings segment.

Principles of Consolidation:

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Revenue Recognition:

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606, *Revenue from Contracts with Customers* ("ASC 606"). Substantially all product sales are sold FOB (free on board) shipping point. Customary payment terms are 2% 30 days, net 40 days. Generally, all performance obligations are satisfied when product is shipped and the customer takes ownership and assumes the risk of loss. In some instances, sales include multiple performance obligations. The most common of these instances relates to sales promotion programs under which downstream customers are entitled to receive no charge products based on their purchases of certain of the Company's products from the independent distributors. The fulfillment of these no charge products is the Company's responsibility. In such instances, the Company allocates the revenue of the promotional sales based on the estimated level of participation in the sales promotional program and the timing of the shipment of all of the firearms included in the promotional program, including the no charge firearms. Revenue is recognized proportionally as each performance obligation is satisfied, based on the relative customary price of each product. Customary prices are generally determined based on the prices charged to the independent distributors. The net change in contract liabilities for a given period is reported as an increase or decrease to sales.

<u>Fair Value of Financial Instruments:</u>

The carrying amounts of financial instruments, including cash, short-term investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, approximate fair value due to the short-term maturity of these items.

The Company's short-term investments consist of United States Treasury instruments, which mature within one year, and investments in a bank-managed money market fund that invests exclusively in United States Treasury obligations and is valued at the net asset value ("NAV") daily closing price, as reported by the fund, based on the amortized cost of the fund's securities. The NAV is used as a practical expedient to estimate fair value. This practical expedient is not used when it is determined to be probable that the fund will sell the investment for an amount different than the reported NAV.

<u>Use of Estimates:</u> 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

<u>Recent Accounting Pronouncements:</u>

In March 2024, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued the final rule under SEC Release No. 33-11275 and 34-99678, The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors, requiring public companies to provide certain climate-related information in their registration statements and annual reports. The final rules will require information about a company's climate-related risks that have materially impacted or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on its business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition, and the actual and potential material impacts of any identified climate-related risks on the company's strategy, business model and outlook, as well as relating to assessment, management, oversight and mitigation of such material risks, material climate-related targets and goals, and material greenhouse gas emissions. Additionally, certain disclosures related to severe weather events and other natural conditions will be required in the audited financial statements. The first phase of the final rule is effective for fiscal years beginning in 2025. Disclosure for prior periods is only required if it was previously disclosed in an SEC filing. On April 4, 2024, the SEC voluntarily stayed implementation of the final rule to facilitate the orderly judicial resolution of pending legal challenges to the rule. On March 27, 2025, the SEC voted to end its defense of these rules, and sent a letter to the court before which the rules are being challenged withdrawing its defense of the rules and stating that SEC counsel is no longer authorized to advance the arguments made in the brief that the SEC had filed. We are currently evaluating the impact on our disclosures of adopting this new pronouncement.

In December of 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-09, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures." The updated accounting guidance requires expanded income tax disclosures, including the disaggregation of existing disclosures related to the effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Prospective application is required, with retrospective application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect the updated guidance will have on its financial statement disclosures.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, "Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses ("ASU 2024-03")." This guidance requires the disaggregation of certain expense captions into specified categories in disclosures within the notes to the financial statements to provide enhanced transparency into the expense captions presented on the statement of earnings. It is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. Adoption may be applied either prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of ASU 2024-03 or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is evaluating the impact of this guidance on the Company's related disclosures.

NOTE 3 - REVENUE RECOGNITION AND CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

The impact of ASC 606 on revenue recognized during the three and six months ended June 28, 2025 and June 29, 2024 is as follows:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | Three Months Ended | Three Months Ended | Six Months Ended | Six Months Ended |
|  | June 28, <br> 2025 | June 29, <br> 2024 | June 28, <br> 2025 | June 29, <br> 2024 |
| Contract liabilities with customers at beginning of period | $789 | $30 | $— | $149 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Revenue deferred | (325) |  | 464 |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Revenue recognized | (373) | (30) | (373) | (149) |
| Contract liabilities with customers at end of period | $91 | $— | $91 | $— |

---

As more fully described in the Revenue Recognition section of Note 2, the deferral of revenue and subsequent recognition thereof relates to certain of the Company's sales promotion programs that include the future shipment of free products. The Company expects the remaining deferred revenue from the contract liabilities with customers to be recognized in the third quarter of 2025.

<u>Practical Expedients and Exemptions</u>

The Company has elected to account for shipping and handling activities that occur after control of the related product transfers to the customer as fulfillment activities that are recognized upon shipment of the goods.

NOTE 4 - INVENTORIES

Inventories are valued using the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method. An actual valuation of inventory under the LIFO method can be made only at the end of each year based on the inventory levels and costs existing at that time. Accordingly, interim LIFO calculations must necessarily be based on management's estimates of expected year-end inventory levels and costs. Because these are subject to many factors beyond management's control, interim results are subject to the final year-end LIFO inventory valuation.

Inventories consist of the following:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | June 28, 2025 | December 31, 2024 |
| Inventory at FIFO |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Finished products | $24306 | $26022 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Materials and work in process | 100903 | 123395 |
| Gross inventories | 125209 | 149417 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Less: LIFO reserve | (68157) | (66398) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Less: excess and obsolescence reserve | (4034) | (6533) |
| Net inventories | $53018 | $76486 |

---

NOTE 5 - LEASED ASSETS

The Company leases certain of its real estate and equipment. The Company has evaluated all its leases and determined that all are operating leases under the definitions of the guidance of ASU 2016-02, *Leases (Topic 842)*. The Company's lease agreements generally do not require material variable lease payments, residual value guarantees or restrictive covenants.

Under the provisions of ASU 2016-02, the Company records right-of-use assets equal to the present value of the contractual liability for future lease payments. The table below presents the right-of-use assets and related lease liabilities recognized on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 28, 2025:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | Balance Sheet Line Item | June 28, 2025 |
| Right-of-use assets | Other assets | $2058 |
| Operating lease liabilities |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Current portion | Trade accounts payable and accrued expenses | $624 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Noncurrent portion | &nbsp;&nbsp;Lease liabilities | 1434 |
| Total operating lease liabilities |  | $2058 |

---

The depreciable lives of right-of-use assets are limited by the lease term and are amortized on a straight line basis over the life of the lease.

The Company's leases generally do not provide an implicit interest rate, and therefore the Company calculates an incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of its operating lease liabilities.

Certain of the Company's lease agreements contain renewal options at the Company's discretion. The Company does not recognize right-of-use assets or lease liabilities for leases of one year or less or for renewal periods unless it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise the renewal option at the inception of the lease or when a triggering event occurs.

The table below includes cash paid for our operating lease liabilities, other non-cash information, our weighted average remaining lease term and weighted average discount rate:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | Six Months Ended | Six Months Ended |
|  | June 28, 2025 | June 29, 2024 |
| Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities | $161 | $432 |
| Cash amounts paid for short-term leases | $81 | $189 |
| Right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for lease liabilities | $— | $— |
| Weighted average remaining lease term (years) | 7.2 | 7.9 |
| Weighted average discount rate | 8.0% | 8.0% |

---

The following table reconciles the undiscounted future minimum lease payments to the total operating lease liabilities recognized on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 28, 2025:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Remainder of 2025 | $383 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2026 | 771 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2027 | 295 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2028 | 160 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2029 | 160 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Thereafter | 800 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total undiscounted future minimum lease payments | 2569 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Less: Difference between undiscounted lease payments & the present value of future lease payments | (511) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total operating lease liabilities | $2058 |

---

NOTE 6 - LINE OF CREDIT

On June 6, 2024, the Company amended its existing $40 million unsecured revolving line of credit agreement with a bank, which now expires January 7, 2028. Borrowings under this new facility bear interest at the applicable Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR), plus 150 basis points, plus an additional adjustment of eight basis points. The Company is also charged one-quarter of a percent (0.25%) per year on the unused portion. At June 28, 2025, the Company was in compliance with the terms and covenants of the credit facility and the line of credit was unused.

NOTE 7 - EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

The Company sponsors a 401(k) plan that covers substantially all employees. The Company matches a certain portion of employee contributions using the safe harbor guidelines contained in the Internal Revenue Code. Expenses related to these matching contributions totaled $1.0 million and $2.2 million for the three and six months ended June 28, 2025, respectively, and $1.0 million and $2.2 million for the three and six months ended June 29, 2024, respectively. The Company plans to contribute approximately $2.0 million to the plan in matching employee contributions during the remainder of 2025.

In addition, the Company provided supplemental discretionary contributions to the 401(k) plan totaling $1.6 million and $3.6 million for the three and six months ended June 28, 2025, respectively, and $1.8 million and $3.8 million for the three and six months ended June 29, 2024, respectively. The Company plans to contribute approximately $3.0 million in supplemental contributions to the plan during the remainder of 2025.

NOTE 8 - INCOME TAXES

The Company's 2025 and 2024 effective tax rates differ from the statutory federal tax rate due principally to the availability of research and development tax credits, state income taxes, and the nondeductibility of certain executive compensation. The Company's effective income tax rate was 11.2% and 1.9% for the three and six months ended June 28, 2025, respectively. The Company's effective income tax rate was 21.0% and 21.3% for the three and six months ended June 29, 2024, respectively.

Income tax payments totaled $1.1 million and $3.1 million for the three and six months ended June 28, 2025, respectively. Income tax payments totaled $9.4 million for both the three and six month periods ended June 29, 2024.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state jurisdictions. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal and state income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2021.

The Company does not believe it has included any "uncertain tax positions" in its federal income tax return or any of the state income tax returns it is currently filing. The Company has made an evaluation of the potential impact of additional state taxes being assessed by jurisdictions in which the Company does not currently consider itself liable. The Company does not anticipate that such additional taxes, if any, would result in a material change to its financial position.

NOTE 9 - EARNINGS PER SHARE

Set forth below is a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator for basic and diluted earnings per share calculations for the periods indicated:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | Three Months Ended | Three Months Ended | Six Months Ended | Six Months Ended |
|  | June 28, 2025 | June 29, 2024 | June 28, 2025 | June 29, 2024 |
| Numerator: |  |  |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Net (loss) income | $(17226) | $8264 | $(9458) | $15348 |
| Denominator: |  |  |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Weighted average number of common shares outstanding – Basic | 16370674 | 17343341 | 16494828 | 17388509 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Dilutive effect of options and restricted stock units outstanding under the Company's employee compensation plans |  | 275167 |  | 226735 |
| Weighted average number of common shares outstanding – Diluted | 16370674 | 17618508 | 16494828 | 17615244 |

---

The dilutive effect of outstanding options and restricted stock units is calculated using the treasury stock method. There were no stock options that were anti-dilutive and therefore not included in the diluted earnings per share calculation.

NOTE 10 - COMPENSATION PLANS

In May 2017, the Company's shareholders approved the 2017 Stock Incentive Plan (the "2017 SIP") under which employees, independent contractors, and non-employee directors may be granted stock options, restricted stock, deferred stock awards, and stock appreciation rights, any of which may or may not require the satisfaction of performance objectives. Vesting requirements are determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors*.* The Company reserved 750,000 shares for issuance under the 2017 SIP.

In June 2023, the Company's shareholders approved the 2023 Stock Incentive Plan (the "2023 SIP") under which employees, independent contractors, and non-employee directors may be granted stock options, restricted stock, deferred stock awards, and stock appreciation rights, any of which may or may not require the satisfaction of performance objectives. Vesting requirements are determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors*.* The Company reserved 1,000,000 shares for issuance under the 2023 SIP, of which 456,000 shares remain available for future grants as of June 28, 2025. Any shares remaining from the 2017 SIP will be available for future grants under the terms of the 2023 SIP. As of June 28, 2025, approximately 120,000 shares remained unawarded from the 2017 SIP. Since the shareholder approval of the 2023 SIP, no additional awards have been or will be granted under the 2017 SIP. Previously granted and outstanding awards under the 2017 SIP will remain subject to the terms of the 2017 SIP.

<u>Restricted Stock Units</u>

The Company grants performance-based and retention-based restricted stock units to senior employees. The vesting of the performance-based awards is dependent on the achievement of corporate objectives established by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors and a three-year vesting period. The retention-based awards are subject only to a three-year vesting period. Additionally, the Company awarded its new CEO a one-time award of 40,000 RSUs, which shall convert into shares of the Company's Common Stock on a one-to-one basis when vested, a portion of which shall be subject to time-based vesting and a portion of which shall be subject to performance-based vesting. There were 275,873 restricted stock units issued during the six months ended June 28, 2025. Total compensation costs related to these restricted stock units are $10.6 million.

Compensation costs related to all outstanding restricted stock units recognized in the statements of income aggregated $1.3 million and $2.4 million for the three and six months ended June 28, 2025, respectively, and $1.1 million and $2.2 million for the three and six months ended June 29, 2024, respectively.

NOTE 11 - OPERATING SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company has two reportable segments: firearms and castings. The firearms segment manufactures and sells rifles, pistols, and revolvers principally to a select number of independent wholesale distributors primarily located in the United States. The castings segment manufactures and sells steel investment castings and metal injection molding parts.

Selected operating segment financial information follows:

Payments made to the NRA in the three and six months ended June 28, 2025 totaled $0.2 million and $0.4 million, respectively. Payments made to the NRA in the three and six months ended June 29, 2024 totaled $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively. One of the Company's Directors also serves as a Director on the Board of the NRA.

The Company is a member of the National Shooting Sports Foundation ("NSSF"), the firearm industry trade association. Payments made to the NSSF in the three and six months ended June 28, 2025 totaled $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively. Payments made to the NSSF in the three and six months ended June 29, 2024 totaled $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively. Two of the Company's Directors also serve on the Board of the NSSF.

NOTE 13 - CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

As of June 28, 2025, the Company was a defendant in seven (7) lawsuits and is aware of certain other claims. The lawsuits generally fall into four (4) categories: municipal litigation, breach of contract, unfair trade practices, and trademark litigation. Each is discussed in turn below.

<u>Municipal Litigation</u>

Municipal litigation generally includes those cases brought by cities or other governmental entities against firearms manufacturers, distributors and retailers seeking to recover damages allegedly arising out of the misuse of firearms by third parties. There are three lawsuits of this type: the *City of Gary*, filed in Indiana State Court in 1999; *The City of Buffalo*, filed in the Supreme Court of the State of New York for Erie County on December 20, 2022; and *The City of Rochester*, filed in the Supreme Court for the State of New York for Monroe County on December 21, 2022, each of which is described in more detail below.

The *City of Gary* seeks damages, among other things, for the costs of medical care, police and emergency services, public health services, and other services as well as punitive damages. In addition, nuisance abatement and/or injunctive relief is sought to change the design, manufacture, marketing and distribution practices of the various Defendants. The Complaint alleges, among other claims, negligence in the design of products, public nuisance, negligent distribution and marketing, negligence per se and deceptive advertising. The case does not allege a specific injury to a specific individual as a result of the misuse or use of any of the Company's products. After a long procedural history, this matter is back before the Indiana Court of Appeals, where briefing was recently completed.

*The City of Buffalo v. Smith & Wesson Brands, Inc., et al.* and *The City of Rochester v. Smith & Wesson Brands, Inc., et al* were filed one day apart in New York State Court, naming a number of firearm manufacturers, distributors, and retailers as Defendants, including the Company. The complaints are virtually identical and purport to state causes of action for violations of Sections 898, 349 and 350 of the New York General Business Law, as well as common law public nuisance. Generally, Plaintiffs alleges that the criminal misuse of firearms in their cities is the result of the manufacturing, sales, marketing, and distribution practices of the Defendants. Both matters were timely removed to the U.S. District Court for the Western District of New York and were consolidated for pretrial purposes only. Those matters were stayed pending the outcome of a different matter that challenges New York's law.

*Estados Unidos Mexicanos v. Smith & Wesson Brands, Inc., et al.* was filed by the Country of Mexico and named seven Defendants, mostly U.S.-based firearms manufacturers, including the Company. The Complaint advanced a variety of legal theories including negligence, public nuisance, unjust enrichment, restitution, and others. Plaintiff essentially alleged that Defendants design, manufacture, distribute, market and sell firearms in a way that they know results in the illegal trafficking of firearms into Mexico, where they are used by Mexican drug cartels for criminal activities.

On June 17, 2024, the District Court heard argument on pending motions to dismiss. On August 7, 2024, the Court granted the motions, dismissing Ruger and some of the other Defendants from the case, but did not enter judgement in favor of these Defendants. Subsequently, the Supreme Court granted the Defendants' Petition for Writ of Certiorari. With the dismissal of Ruger and other Defendants on personal jurisdiction grounds, the remaining Defendants prosecuted the appeal before the Supreme Court and oral argument was held on March 4, 2025. On June 5, 2025, the Supreme Court ruled that because the Plaintiff's complaint does not plausibly allege that the defendant gun manufacturers aided and abetted gun dealers' unlawful sales of firearms to Mexican traffickers and the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act bars the lawsuit.

<u>Breach of Contract</u>

The Company is a defendant in *Jones v. Sturm, Ruger & Co.,* a purported class action lawsuit arising out of a data breach at Freestyle Solutions, Inc., the vendor who was hosting the Company's eCommerce website at the time of the breach. The matter was mediated and the parties agreed to a settlement in principle, which is being finalized.

<u>Unfair Trade Practices</u>

*Estate of Suzanne Fountain v. Sturm, Ruger & Co., Inc.,* and *Estate of Nevin Stanisic v. Sturm, Ruger & Co., Inc.* are pending in Connecticut state court and arise out of the criminal shootings at the King Soopers supermarket in Boulder, Colorado on March 22, 2021. The Complaints allege that the Company's advertising and marketing of the Ruger AR-556 pistol violate the Connecticut Unfair Trade Practices Act.

The *Fountain* and *Stanisic* cases were consolidated for discovery purposes only and transferred by the court to the Complex Litigation Docket. The Company is vigorously defending these matters.

Trademark Litigation

The Company is a defendant in *FN Herstal, et al. v. Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc.*, which is pending in North Carolina. The Complaint alleges that the Company's use of the initialism "SFAR" in connection with the marketing of its Small Frame Autoloading Rifle infringes the Plaintiffs' SCAR trademark. The Complaint alleges violations of the Lanham Act and the North Carolina Unfair and Deceptive Trade Practices Act, as well as trademark infringement under North Carolina common law. The parties are awaiting decision on dispositive motions.

<u>Summary of Claimed Damages and Explanation of Product Liability Accruals</u>

Punitive damages, as well as compensatory damages, are demanded in certain of the lawsuits and claims. In many instances, the plaintiff does not seek a specified amount of money, though aggregate amounts ultimately sought may exceed product liability accruals and applicable insurance coverage.

For product liability claims made between July 10, 2000 and August 31, 2024, insurance coverage was provided on an annual basis for losses exceeding $5 million per claim, or an aggregate maximum loss of $10 million annually, except for certain claims brought by governments or municipalities, which are excluded from coverage. Insurance coverage was not renewed with incumbent carriers effective September 1, 2024. Rather, the Company established a wholly-owned captive insurance company for claims made on or after September 1, 2024.

The Company management monitors the status of known claims and the product liability accrual, which includes amounts for asserted and unasserted claims. While it is not possible to forecast the outcome of litigation or the timing of costs, in the opinion of management, after consultation with special and corporate counsel, it is not probable and is unlikely that litigation, including punitive damage claims, will have a material adverse effect on the financial position of the Company, but may have a material impact on the Company's financial results for a particular period.

Product liability claim payments are made when appropriate if, as, and when claimants and the Company reach agreement upon an amount to finally resolve all claims. Legal costs are paid as the lawsuits and claims develop, the timing of which may vary greatly from case to case. A time schedule cannot be determined in advance with any reliability concerning when payments will be made in any given case.

Provision is made for product liability claims based upon many factors related to the severity of the alleged injury and potential liability exposure, based upon prior claim experience. Because the Company's experience in defending these lawsuits and claims is that unfavorable outcomes are typically not probable or estimable, only in rare cases is an accrual established for such costs.

In most cases, an accrual is established only for estimated legal defense costs. Product liability accruals are periodically reviewed to reflect then-current estimates of possible liabilities and expenses incurred to date and reasonably anticipated in the future. Threatened product liability claims are reflected in the Company's product liability accrual on the same basis as actual claims; *i.e.*, an accrual is made for reasonably anticipated possible liability and claims handling expenses on an ongoing basis.

Often, a Complaint does not specify the amount of damages being sought and a range of reasonably possible losses relating to unfavorable outcomes cannot be made. The dollar amount of damages claimed at December 31, 2024, December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was *de minimis*. The amount claimed is set forth as an indication of possible maximum liability the Company might be required to incur in these cases (regardless of the likelihood or reasonable probability of any or all of this amount being awarded to claimants) as a result of adverse judgments that are sustained on appeal.

NOTE 14 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On July 25, 2025, the Board of Directors authorized a dividend of 16¢ per share, for shareholders of record as of August 15, 2025, payable on August 29, 2025.

On July 1, 2025 the Company announced the asset purchase of Anderson Manufacturing ("Anderson"), a manufacturer of firearms and firearm accessories based in Hebron, Kentucky, for $16.4 million in cash. This strategic purchase includes Anderson's manufacturing facility, equipment and machinery, inventory, certain assets and liabilities, and all intellectual property related to Anderson. The acquisition will provide Ruger the opportunity to work with a skilled and experienced workforce, strengthen its production capabilities and expand its product offerings. The transaction was funded by the Company with cash on hand and will be accounted for in accordance with ASC 805 - Business Combinations. ASC 805 requires, among other things, an assignment of the acquisition consideration transferred to the sellers for the tangible and intangible assets acquired, using the bottom up approach, to estimate their value at acquisition date. Any excess of the fair value of the purchase consideration over these identified net assets will be recorded as goodwill. The Company has not yet completed its purchase price allocation and fair value assessments of the assets acquired.

The Company has evaluated events and transactions occurring subsequent to June 28, 2025 and determined that there were no other unreported events or transactions that would have a material impact on the Company's results of operations or financial position.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

**Company Overview**

Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. (the "Company") is principally engaged in the design, manufacture, and sale of firearms to domestic customers. Approximately 99% of sales are from firearms. Export sales accounted for approximately 5% of total sales for each of the six month periods ended June 28, 2025 and June 29, 2024. The Company's design and manufacturing operations are located in the United States and almost all product content is domestic. The Company's firearms are sold through a select number of independent wholesale distributors, principally to the commercial sporting market.

The Company also manufactures investment castings made from steel alloys and metal injection molding ("MIM") parts for internal use in its firearms and for sale to unaffiliated, third-party customers. Less than 1% of sales are from the castings segment.

Orders for many models of firearms from the independent distributors tend to be stronger in the first quarter of the year and weaker in the third quarter of the year. This is due in part to the timing of the distributor show season, which occurs during the first quarter.

**<u>Results of Operations</u>**

During the six months ended June 28, 2025 the Company has undertaken several strategic initiatives to enhance its operational and market positioning. These initiatives include:

● A leadership transition to welcome a new CEO and evolve its leadership structure, along with an organizational realignment designed to improve efficiency and effectiveness,

● An inventory rationalization, in which the Company revised its product strategy for 2025 and beyond and reassessed its raw material, work-in-process and finished goods inventories to identify and reserve for inventory that is now excess, obsolete or ready to be discontinued due to the revised product roadmaps, including legacy models that have run their lifecycle, products that are no longer part of the long-term strategy, and Marlin-related items that are not part of the product roadmap for that brand, and

● A product repositioning to address its product strategy for the future and take a hard look at current market conditions, consumer demand and overall economics to identify areas where it has desirable products, with strong features that need to reach its customers at a better price point.

These initiatives impacted the results of operations for the three month period ending June 28, 2025 as follows, which reduced diluted earnings per share $1.46:

● Sales reduction of $5.7 million related to the sale of 67,000 units of discontinued models

● Increased cost of sales of $17.0 million, reflecting the write-off of inventory and other assets related to the revised product strategy and product roadmap

● Increased general and administrative expenses of $3.7 million related to the leadership transition and organizational realignment

<u>Demand</u>

The estimated unit sell-through of the Company's products from the independent distributors to retailers decreased 4% in the first half of 2025 compared to the prior year period. For the same period, National Instant Criminal Background Check System ("NICS") background checks (as adjusted by the National Shooting Sports Foundation ("NSSF")) decreased 4%. Estimated sell-through from the independent distributors to retailers and total adjusted NICS background checks for the trailing six quarters follow:

---

| | | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | 2025 | 2025 | 2024 | 2024 | 2024 | 2024 |
|  | Q2 | Q1 | Q4 | Q3 | Q2 | Q1 |
| Estimated Units Sold from Distributors to Retailers (1) | 328500 | 364700 | 410500 | 336300 | 327800 | 396700 |
| Total adjusted NICS Background Checks (thousands) (2) | 3251 | 3817 | 4460 | 3432 | 3364 | 3983 |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) The estimates for each period were calculated by taking the beginning inventory at the distributors, plus
shipments from the Company to distributors during the period, less the ending inventory at distributors. These estimates are only a proxy
for actual market demand as they:

● Rely on data provided by independent distributors that are not verified by the Company,

● Do not consider potential timing issues within the distribution channel, including goods-in-transit, and

● Do not consider fluctuations in inventory at retail.

(2) NICS background checks are performed when the ownership of most firearms, either new or used, is transferred
by a Federal Firearms Licensee. NICS background checks are also performed for permit applications, permit renewals, and other administrative
reasons.

The adjusted NICS data presented above was derived by the NSSF by subtracting out NICS checks that are not directly related to the sale of a firearm, including checks used for concealed carry ("CCW") permit application checks, as well as checks on active CCW permit databases. The adjusted NICS checks represent less than half of the total NICS checks.

Adjusted NICS data can be impacted by changes in state laws and regulations and any directives and interpretations issued by governmental agencies.

<u>Orders Received and Ending Backlog</u>

The Company uses the estimated unit sell-through of its products from the independent distributors to retailers, along with inventory levels at the independent distributors and at the Company, as the key metrics for planning production levels. The Company generally does not use the orders received or ending backlog for planning production levels.

The units ordered, value of orders received, average sales price of units ordered, and ending backlog for the trailing six quarters are as follows (dollars in millions, except average sales price):

(All amounts shown are net of Federal Excise Tax of 10% for handguns and 11% for long guns.)

<u>Production</u>

The Company reviews the estimated sell-through from the independent distributors to retailers, as well as inventory levels at the independent distributors and at the Company to plan production levels. The Company's overall production in the second quarter of 2025 increased 3% from the first quarter of 2025*.*

<u>Net Sales, Cost of Products Sold, and Gross Profit</u>

Net sales, cost of products sold, and gross profit data for the three months ended (dollars in millions):

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | June 28, 2025 | June 29, 2024 | Change | % Change |

| Gross margin | 3.9% | 22.3% | (18.4%) | (82.5%) |

---

Total consolidated net sales and net firearms sales increased slightly for the three months ended June 28, 2025, despite the $5.7 million reduction related to the close out of 67,000 units of discontinued models. Sales of new products, including the RXM pistol, Super Wrangler revolver, Marlin lever-action rifles, and American Centerfire Rifle Generation II represented $42.2 million or 33.5% of firearm sales in the three months ended June 28, 2025. New product sales include only major new products that were introduced in the past two years.

The decreased gross profit for the three months ended June 28, 2025 is attributable to inventory rationalization write-offs taken during the quarter and the aforementioned sales reductions, partially off-set by favorable leveraging of fixed costs resulting from increased production.

The decrease in gross margin for the three months ended June 28, 2025 is attributable to the aforementioned factors.

<u>Income Taxes and Net Income</u>

The Company's 2025 and 2024 effective tax rates differ from the statutory federal tax rate due principally to research and development tax credits, state income taxes and the nondeductibility of certain executive compensation. The reduction in 2025 earnings increased the impact of these items, which resulted in effective income tax rates of 11.2% and 1.9% for the three and six months ended June 28, 2025, respectively. The Company's effective income tax rate was 21.0% and 21.3% for the three and six months ended June 29, 2024, respectively.

As a result of the foregoing factors, consolidated net loss was $(17.2) million for the three months ended June 28, 2025, a change of (308.4%) from $8.3 million consolidated net income in the comparable prior year period.

Consolidated net loss was $(9.5) million for the six months ended June 28, 2025, a change of (161.6%) from $15.3 million consolidated net income in the comparable prior year period.

**Non-GAAP Financial Measures**

In an effort to provide investors with additional information regarding its financial results, the Company refers to various United States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") financial measures and two non-GAAP financial measures, EBITDA and EBITDA margin, which management believes provides useful information to investors. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled financial measures being disclosed by other companies. In addition, the Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not in lieu of, GAAP financial measures. The Company believes that EBITDA and EBITDA margin are useful to understanding its operating results and the ongoing performance of its underlying business, as EBITDA provides information on the Company's ability to meet its capital expenditure and working capital requirements, and is also an indicator of profitability. The Company believes that this reporting provides better transparency and comparability to its operating results. The Company uses both GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate the Company's financial performance.

EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, and depreciation and amortization. The Company calculates this by adding the amount of interest expense, income tax expense, and depreciation and amortization expenses that have been deducted from net income back into net income, and subtracting the amount of interest income that was included in net income from net income to arrive at EBITDA. The Company's EBITDA calculation also excludes any one-time non-cash, non-operating expense. The Company calculates EBITDA margin by dividing EBITDA by total net sales.

EBITDA was $2.3 million for the three months ended June 28, 2025, a decrease of 84.4% from $14.5 million in the comparable prior year period.

For the six months ended June 28, 2025 EBITDA was $16.6 million, a decrease of 40.9% from $28.0 million in the comparable prior year period.

**<u>Financial Condition</u>**

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At the end of the second quarter of 2025, the Company's cash and short-term investments totaled $101.4 million. Pre-LIFO working capital of $233.7 million, less the LIFO reserve of $68.2 million, resulted in working capital of $165.5 million and a current ratio of 4.0 to 1.

Operations

Cash provided by operating activities was $25.9 million for the six months ended June 28, 2025, compared to $26.1 million for the comparable prior year period. The slight decrease in cash provided in the six months ended June 28, 2025 is primarily attributable to the decrease in net income and the lesser reductions in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the six months ended June 28, 2025, partially offset by the impact of the write-off of inventory related to the Company's inventory rationalization and the lower net payouts of accrued employee compensation and benefits in the six months ended June 28, 2025.

Third parties supply the Company with various raw materials for its firearms and castings, such as steel, fabricated steel components, walnut, birch, beech, maple and laminated lumber for rifle stocks, wax, ceramic material, metal alloys, various synthetic products and other component parts. A limited supply of these materials in the marketplace can result in increases to purchase prices and adversely affect production levels. If market conditions result in a significant prolonged inflation of certain prices or if adequate quantities of raw materials cannot be obtained, the Company's manufacturing processes could be interrupted and the Company's financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

Investing and Financing

Capital expenditures for the six months ended June 28, 2025 totaled $6.7 million, a decrease from $10.4 million in the comparable prior year period. The Company expects capital expenditures in the latter half of 2025 to increase from the first half of the year, exclusive of the Anderson purchase, as we invest in new product introductions, expand capacity, upgrade our manufacturing capabilities and strengthen our facility infrastructure. Actual capital expenditures could vary significantly from the projected amounts due to the timing of capital projects. The Company finances, and intends to continue to finance, all of these activities with funds provided by operations and current cash and cash equivalents.

On July 1, 2025 the Company announced the asset purchase of Anderson Manufacturing, a manufacturer of firearms and firearm accessories based in Hebron, Kentucky for $16.4 million. This strategic purchase includes Anderson's manufacturing facility and machinery and will provide Ruger the opportunity to work with a skilled and experienced workforce, strengthening its production capabilities and expanding its product offerings.

Dividends of $6.9 million were paid during the six months ended June 28, 2025. The Company has financed its dividends with cash provided by operations and current cash. The quarterly dividend varies every quarter because the Company pays a percentage of earnings rather than a fixed amount per share. The Company's practice is to pay a dividend of approximately 40% of net income.

On July 25, 2025, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a dividend of 16¢ per share to shareholders of record on August 15, 2025, payable on August 29, 2025. This dividend is approximately 40% of adjusted diluted earnings of 41¢ per share for the second quarter of 2025. The payment of future dividends depends on many factors, including internal estimates of future performance, then-current cash and short-term investments, and the Company's need for funds.

As of June 28, 2025, the Company had $55.2 million of United States Treasury instruments which mature within one year. The Company also invests available cash in a bank-managed money market fund that invests exclusively in United States Treasury instruments which mature within one year. At June 28, 2025, the Company's investment in this money market fund totaled $22.9 million.

During the six months ended June 28, 2025 the Company purchased 443,084 shares of its common stock for $16.1 million in the open market. The average price per share purchased was $36.42. These purchases were funded with cash on hand. As of June 28, 2025, $24.1 million remained authorized for future stock repurchases.

Based on its unencumbered assets, the Company believes it has the ability to raise cash through the issuance of short-term or long-term debt. The Company's unsecured $40 million credit facility, which expires on January 7, 2028, was unused at June 28, 2025.

<u>Other Operational Matters</u>

In the normal course of its manufacturing operations, the Company is subject to occasional governmental proceedings and orders pertaining to workplace safety, firearms serial number tracking and control, waste disposal, air emissions and water discharges into the environment. The Company believes that it is generally in compliance with applicable Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms & Explosives, environmental, and safety regulations and the outcome of any proceedings or orders will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company. If these regulations become more stringent in the future and the Company is not able to comply with them, such noncompliance could have a material adverse impact on the Company.

The Company has 14 independent distributors that service the domestic commercial market. Additionally, the Company has 44 and 26 distributors servicing the export and law enforcement markets, respectively.

The Company self-insures a significant amount of its product liability, workers' compensation, medical, and other insurance. It also carries significant deductible amounts on various insurance policies. In September 2024, the Company did not renew its product liability coverage with its incumbent carriers and established a wholly-owned captive insurance company for claims made on or after September 1, 2024.

The Company expects to realize its deferred tax assets through tax deductions against future taxable income.

<u>Adjustments to Critical Accounting Policies</u>

The Company has not made any adjustments to its critical accounting estimates and assumptions described in the Company's 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on February 19, 2025, or the judgments affecting the application of those estimates and assumptions.

<u>Forward-Looking Statements and Projections</u>

The Company may, from time to time, make forward-looking statements and projections concerning future expectations. Such statements are based on current expectations and are subject to certain qualifying risks and uncertainties, such as market demand, sales levels of firearms, anticipated castings sales and earnings, the need for external financing for operations or capital expenditures, the results of pending litigation against the Company, the impact of future firearms control and environmental legislation, and accounting estimates, any one or more of which could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. The Company undertakes no obligation to publish revised forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date such forward-looking statements are made or to reflect the occurrence of subsequent unanticipated events.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The interest rate market risk implicit to the Company at any given time is typically low, as the Company does not have significant exposure to changing interest rates on invested cash. There has been no material change in the Company's exposure to interest rate risks during the three months ended June 28, 2025.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

<u>Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures</u>

The Company's management, with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (the "Disclosure Controls and Procedures"), as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), as of June 28, 2025.

Based on that evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of June 28, 2025, such Disclosure Controls and Procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company's periodic reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.

The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have further concluded that, as of June 28, 2025, there have been no material changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended June 28, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.

The effectiveness of any system of internal controls and procedures is subject to certain limitations, and, as a result, there can be no assurance that the Disclosure Controls and Procedures will detect all errors or fraud. An internal control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the internal control system will be attained.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The nature of the legal proceedings against the Company is discussed at Note 13 to the financial statements, which are included in this Form 10-Q.

There were no lawsuits formally instituted against the Company during the three months ending June 28, 2025.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

During the three months ended June 28, 2025, there were no material changes in the Company's risk factors from the information provided in Item 1A. Risk Factors included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, and in Part II, Item 1A Risk Factors included in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 29, 2025.
