The Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are an integral part of these condensed consolidated statements.

Note 1 – Significant Accounting Policies

Interim Financial Statements. Brunswick's unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. Therefore, certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements and related notes prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with, and have been prepared in conformity with, the accounting principles reflected in the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in Brunswick's 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the 2024 Form 10-K). These results include, in management's opinion, all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly Brunswick's financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Due to the seasonality of Brunswick's businesses, the interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the remainder of the year.

The Company maintains its financial records on the basis of a fiscal year ending on December 31, with the fiscal quarters spanning approximately thirteen weeks. The first quarter ends on the Saturday closest to the end of the first thirteen-week period. The second and third quarters are thirteen weeks in duration and the fourth quarter is the remainder of the year. The first quarter of fiscal year 2025 ended on March 29, 2025 and the first quarter of fiscal year 2024 ended on March 30, 2024.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

Income Statement: In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40). This guidance requires disclosures about significant expense categories, including, but not limited to, inventory purchases, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization, and selling expenses. ASU 2024-03 is effective for financial statements for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on the consolidated financial statements.

Income Taxes: In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) — Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. Under this ASU, entities must disclose, on an annual basis, specific categories in the rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. In addition, ASU 2023-09 requires entities to disclose additional information about income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 is effective for financial statements for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting this guidance on the consolidated financial statements.

Note 4 –Acquisitions

2024 Acquisition

On September 12, 2024, the Company acquired additional Freedom Boat Club franchise operations and territories in Southeast Florida. The acquisition enhances Freedom Boat Club's presence in Florida and provides an opportunity to leverage synergies across Brunswick's portfolio of brands. The acquisition is included as part of the Company's Boat segment.

The Company paid net cash consideration of $31.2 million for the acquisition. The opening balance sheet, which is preliminary and subject to change in the measurement period as the Company finalizes the purchase price allocation and fair value estimates, includes $26.7 million of goodwill and $5.2 million of customer relationships. The amount assigned to customer relationships will be amortized over the estimated useful life of 10 years. Transaction costs associated with the acquisition were not material to the Company's consolidated results of operations. The acquisition is not material to the Company's net sales, results of operations, or total assets during any period presented. Accordingly, the Company's consolidated results of operations do not differ materially from historical performance as a result of the acquisition, and pro forma results for prior periods are not presented.

Note 5 –Financial Instruments

The Company operates globally with manufacturing and sales facilities around the world. Due to the Company’s global operations, the Company engages in activities involving both financial and market risks. The Company utilizes normal operating and financing activities, along with derivative financial instruments, to minimize these risks. See Note 12 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2024 Form 10-K for further details regarding the Company's financial instruments and hedging policies.

During the first quarter of 2025, the Company entered into $400.0 million of cross-currency swap contracts and settled $400.0 million of cross-currency swap contracts previously entered into, resulting in a deferred gain of $4.9 million within Accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax.
