Callaway Golf Company Announces Record Financial Results For Second Quarter And First Half 2021

CARLSBAD, Calif., Aug. 9, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Callaway Golf Company (the “Company” or “Callaway”) (NYSE: ELY) announced today its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2021.

“I am very pleased with our performance in the second quarter of 2021 with record revenue and Adjusted EBITDA in our golf equipment and apparel businesses, as well as Topgolf results that continue to exceed our expectations,” commented Chip Brewer, President and Chief Executive Officer of Callaway. “These results reflect the strong momentum and exceptional operating performance across all of our business segments and underscore the strong consumer demand for our products and services. We are encouraged to see that the interest in the sport of golf remains at all-time highs among both experienced golfers and new entrants to the sport.”

“As we look ahead to the second half of 2021 and beyond, we are confident that our unique portfolio of businesses is well positioned for long-term growth,” continued Mr. Brewer. “While in the short-term we will experience some lingering supply constraints and other challenges caused by the pandemic, we believe that these challenges will be manageable given current demand levels and actions we are taking to mitigate the impact. Our best estimate of these impacts is included in the guidance we are providing today, and we expect to deliver excellent financial results for the full year.  All in all, we are excited about the long-term trends in our golf and outdoor apparel businesses, as well as the growth opportunities for Topgolf, all of which will continue to drive shareholder value.”

Second Quarter 2021 Financial Highlights

  • Net revenue increase was driven by higher-than-expected strength across both the Golf Equipment and Apparel, Gear & Other segments, as demand remained high for golf and outdoor activities. In addition, Topgolf, which merged with the Company in March 2021, also contributed to strong, higher-than-expected revenue growth.
     
  • Non-GAAP income from operations increase was led by a $96 million increase in income from operations from the Company’s Golf Equipment and Apparel, Gear & Other businesses as well as an incremental $24 million from the addition of the Topgolf business for the full second quarter.
     
  • Non-GAAP other income/(expense), net decreased $30 million primarily due to a $14 million increase in interest expense related to the addition of Topgolf as well as last year’s $11 million gain from the settlement of a cross currency swap arrangement.
     
  • Fully diluted shares were 194 million shares of common stock in the second quarter of 2021, an increase of 100 million shares compared to 94 million shares in the second quarter of 2020. The increased share count is primarily related to the issuance of additional shares in connection with the Topgolf merger.
     
  • Adjusted EBITDA increase was driven by a $78 million increase in the Company’s Golf Equipment and Apparel, Gear & Other businesses and the addition of $57 million from the Topgolf business. 

SEGMENT RESULTS

As a result of the Topgolf merger, the Company now has three operating segments, namely Golf Equipment; Apparel, Gear and Other; and Topgolf.  The Company evaluates the performance of its operating segments based on segment operating income. Management uses total segment operating income as a measure of its operational performance, excluding corporate overhead and certain non-recurring and non-cash charges and benefits. The Company believes that information about total segment operating income allows investors to better evaluate operating results and changes in results without these non-operational factors.

The following is a reconciliation of income before income taxes to total segment operating income (in millions) for the second quarter and first half of 2021 and 2020:

Second Quarter 2021 Segment Highlights

  • Golf equipment
    • Revenue increased 91% year-over-year and 37% compared to second quarter 2019 pre-pandemic levels, driven by the continued surge in golf demand and participation, successful launch of the new EPIC line of woods and APEX line of irons and the continued success of the Chrome Soft line of golf balls, as compared to the Company’s operations and golf retail being significantly impacted by restrictions and shutdowns due to the pandemic for the majority of the second quarter of 2020
    • Both the golf club and golf ball products saw significant growth year-over-year, with golf club sales increasing 105% and golf ball sales increasing 51%
    • Segment operating income increased 236% due to the increased revenue, operating expense leverage and favorable foreign currency exchange rates
       
  • Apparel, Gear and Other
    • Revenue increased 115% year-over-year, driven by a 152% increase in apparel sales as well as an 88% increase in gear, accessories and other as all brands rebounded from the year ago quarter, which was severely impacted by shutdowns due to the pandemic
    • Compared to second quarter 2019 pre-pandemic levels, revenue increased 21%
    • TravisMathew experienced significant growth in the quarter as momentum in demand for the brand continued to increase, while Jack Wolfskin and Callaway’s soft goods business also increased amid continued consumer demand for golf and outdoor products
    • Jack Wolfskin showed resiliency, despite most European retail locations being negatively impacted by COVID-19 restrictions for a significant portion of the second quarter of 2021
    • Operating income for the apparel, gear and other segment increased $28 million to $16 million in the second quarter of 2021 compared to a $12 million loss in the second quarter of 2020, driven by the increased sales and fixed cost leverage and grew $4 million versus the second quarter of 2019
       
  • Topgolf
    • Contributed $325 million of revenue and $24 million of segment operating income in the second quarter of 2021
    • Same venue sales increased to the low 90s as a percent of 2019 levels
    • Opened six new domestic locations in the first six months of 2021, including four locations opened during second quarter 2021

BUSINESS OUTLOOK

The third quarter and full year 2021 projections set forth below are based on the Company’s best estimates at this time. They include the estimated impact of certain factors, including (1) ongoing uncertainty due to the impact of COVID-19 on the supply chain, (2) changes in foreign currency effects, which are estimated to have a positive full year impact of $36 million on net sales, and (3) increased freight costs. In addition, due to the timing of the Topgolf acquisition on March 8, 2021, Callaway’s reported full year financial results will only include 10 months of Topgolf results in 2021 and therefore will not include January and February results which were in the aggregate $142.9 million in revenue and $2.3 million in Adjusted EBITDA.

Net Revenue: Full year 2021 net revenue estimate assumes continued positive demand fundamentals for Callaway’s Golf Equipment and Apparel, Gear and Other segments, along with Topgolf segment revenue for the 10 months beginning March 8, 2021 approaching 2019 full year levels of $1,060 million. The outlook also assumes $55 million of revenue risk due to short-term supply chain constraints, almost all of which occurs in third quarter 2021.

Adjusted EBITDA: Full year 2021 Adjusted EBITDA estimate assumes the Topgolf segment will deliver over $100 million in Adjusted EBITDA for the 10 months beginning March 8, 2021. The outlook takes into account elevated freight costs in the second half of 2021, as well as non-GAAP operating expenses that are approximately $100 million higher than full year 2019 non-GAAP operating expenses primarily due to cost of living and inflationary pressures over two years, the impact of foreign currency changes and investment back into the Company’s business. This estimate for non-GAAP operating expenses is $20 to $30 million higher than the Company’s initial expectations at the beginning of the year and is related primarily to accelerated investments in the apparel business and variable costs associated with the strong performance of the business this year.

Non-GAAP Information

The GAAP results contained in this press release and the financial statement schedules attached to this press release have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”).  To supplement the GAAP results, the Company has provided certain non-GAAP financial information as follows:

Constant Currency Basis. The Company provided certain information regarding the Company’s financial results or projected financial results on a “constant currency basis.” This information estimates the impact of changes in foreign currency rates on the translation of the Company’s current or projected future period financial results as compared to the applicable comparable period.  This impact is derived by taking the current or projected local currency results and translating them into U.S. dollars based upon the foreign currency exchange rates for the applicable comparable period. It does not include any other effect of changes in foreign currency rates on the Company’s results or business.

Non-Recurring and Non-cash Adjustments. The Company provided information excluding certain non-cash amortization of intangibles and other assets related to the Company’s acquisitions, non-recurring transaction and transition costs related to acquisitions, severance costs related to the Company’s cost-reduction initiatives, and other non-recurring costs, including costs related to the merger and integration with Topgolf, transition to the Company’s new North American Distribution Center, implementation of new IT systems, the cumulative $6 million non-cash valuation allowance recorded against certain of the Company’s deferred tax assets as a result of the Topgolf merger, the $253 million non-cash gain as the result of the Company’s prior equity position in Topgolf, the $174 million non-cash impairment charge related to the Jack Wolfskin goodwill and trade name, as well as non-cash amortization of the debt discount related to the Company’s convertible notes.

Adjusted EBITDA.  The Company provides information about its results excluding interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization expenses, non-cash stock compensation expense, non-cash lease amortization expense, and the non-recurring and non-cash items referenced above. 

In addition, the Company has included in the schedules attached to this release a reconciliation of certain non-GAAP information to the most directly comparable GAAP information.  The non-GAAP information presented in this release and related schedules should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for any measure derived in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP information may also be inconsistent with the manner in which similar measures are derived or used by other companies.  Management uses such non-GAAP information for financial and operational decision-making purposes and as a means to evaluate period-over-period comparisons and in forecasting the Company’s business going forward. Management believes that the presentation of such non-GAAP information, when considered in conjunction with the most directly comparable GAAP information, provides additional useful comparative information for investors in their assessment of the underlying performance of the Company’s business with regard to these items. The Company has provided reconciling information in the attached schedules.

Definitions

Same venue sales. Callaway defines same venue sales for its Topgolf business as sales for the comparable venue base, which is defined as the number of Company-operated venues with at least 24 full fiscal months of operations.

Forward-Looking Statements

Statements used in this press release that relate to future plans, events, financial results, performance, prospects, or growth opportunities, including statements relating to the Company’s and Topgolf’s financial outlook for the full year and third quarter of 2021 (including revenue, Adjusted EBITDA and operating expenses), continued impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business and the Company’s ability to improve and recover from such impact, impact of any measures taken to mitigate the effect of the pandemic, strength and demand of the Company’s products and services, continued brand momentum, demand for golf and outdoor apparel,  continued investments in the business, increases in shareholder value, post-pandemic consumer trends and behavior, future industry and market conditions, the benefits of the Topgolf merger, including the anticipated operations, financial position, liquidity, performance, prospects or growth and scale opportunities of the Company, Topgolf or the combined company, and statements of belief and any statement of assumptions underlying any of the foregoing, are forward-looking statements as defined under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The words “believe,” “expect,” “estimate,” “could,” “should,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “seek,” “anticipate,” “project” and similar expressions, among others, generally identify forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date the statements were made and are not guarantees of future performance. These statements are based upon current information and expectations. Accurately estimating the forward-looking statements is based upon various risks and unknowns, including disruptions to business operations from additional regulatory restrictions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic (such as travel restrictions, government-mandated shut-down orders or quarantines) or voluntary “social distancing” that affects employees, customers and suppliers; costs, expenses or difficulties related to the merger with Topgolf, including the integration of the Topgolf business; failure to realize the expected benefits and synergies of the Topgolf merger in the expected timeframes or at all; production delays, closures of manufacturing facilities, retail locations, warehouses and supply and distribution chains; staffing shortages as a result of remote working requirements or otherwise; uncertainty regarding global economic conditions, particularly the uncertainty related to the duration and ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and related decreases in customer demand/spending  and ongoing increases in operating and freight costs and supply constraints; the Company’s level of indebtedness; continued availability of credit facilities and liquidity and ability to comply with applicable debt covenants; effectiveness of capital allocation and cost/expense reduction efforts; continued brand momentum and product success; growth in the direct-to-consumer and e-commerce channels; ability to realize the benefits of the continued investments in the Company’s business; consumer acceptance of and demand for the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ products and services; cost of living and inflationary  pressures; any changes in U.S. trade, tax or other policies, including restrictions on imports or an increase in import tariffs; future consumer discretionary purchasing activity, which can be significantly adversely affected by unfavorable economic or market conditions; future retailer purchasing activity, which can be significantly negatively affected by adverse industry conditions and overall retail inventory levels; and future changes in foreign currency exchange rates and the degree of effectiveness of the Company’s hedging programs. Actual results may differ materially from those estimated or anticipated as a result of these risks and unknowns or other risks and uncertainties, including the effect of terrorist activity, armed conflict, natural disasters or pandemic diseases, including expanded outbreak of COVID-19 and its variants, on the economy generally, on the level of demand for the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ products and services or on the Company’s ability to manage its operations, supply chain and delivery logistics in such an environment; delays, difficulties or increased costs in the supply of components or commodities needed to manufacture the Company’s products or in manufacturing the Company’s products; and a decrease in participation levels in golf generally, during or as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. For additional information concerning these and other risks and uncertainties that could affect these statements and the Company’s business, see the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 as well as other risks and uncertainties detailed from time to time in the Company’s reports on Forms 10-Q and 8-K subsequently filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes no obligation to republish revised forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
