FAIRHAVEN, MA – August 6, 2024 – Acushnet Holdings Corp. (NYSE: GOLF) ("Acushnet" or the "Company"), the global leader in the design, development, manufacture and distribution of performance-driven golf products, today reported financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.
“Acushnet continued to execute its growth strategies in the second quarter and, through the first six months of the year, the team delivered a 2% increase in both constant currency net sales and Adjusted EBITDA, consistent with our expectations. These first half gains were driven by growth in Titleist golf balls and golf clubs,” said David Maher, Acushnet’s President and Chief Executive Officer.
Mr. Maher continued, “There remains strong participation and enthusiasm for the game of golf, particularly in the U.S. where rounds of play were up 2% year-to-date. Rounds outside the U.S. are resilient but down slightly as several markets started slowly due to poor spring weather.
As we look ahead to the second half of the year, we are excited to launch new Titleist GT drivers and fairway metals, which are already seeing success across the global professional tours, and new products from FootJoy and KJUS for the fall and winter seasons. I would like to thank our team of Acushnet associates as they remain dedicated to delivering long-term value for our shareholders.”

_______________________________________________________________________________________
Consolidated net sales for the quarter decreased 0.8%, or increased 0.6% on a constant currency basis. The increase on a constant currency basis was primarily driven by higher sales volumes in Titleist golf balls, partially offset by lower sales volumes in Titleist golf clubs.
On a geographic basis, higher net sales in the United States were largely driven by increases of 8.5% in Titleist golf balls and 4.8% in FootJoy golf wear, primarily due to higher sales volumes of Pro V1 and Pro V1x, and our latest generation AVX golf balls and higher average selling prices in apparel and higher net sales in footwear. These increases were partially offset by a decrease of 9.0% in Titleist golf clubs as higher sales volumes of our latest generation T-Series irons and our recently launched SM10 wedges and Phantom putters were more than offset by lower sales volumes of drivers, fairways, hybrids and Super Select putters, which were all in their second model year.
Net sales in regions outside the United States decreased 4.4%, or 1.0% on a constant currency basis, primarily due to lower net sales in Rest of World partially offset by increases in Japan, EMEA and Korea. In Rest of World, the decrease in net sales was primarily due to lower net sales in FootJoy golf wear, primarily footwear.
Segment specifics:
•4.2% increase in net sales (5.3% on a constant currency basis) of Titleist golf balls, primarily due to higher sales volumes of Pro V1 and Pro V1x, and our latest generation AVX golf balls launched in the first quarter of 2024.
•5.6% decrease in net sales (4.1% on a constant currency basis) of Titleist golf clubs as higher sales volumes of our latest generation T-Series irons and recently launched SM10 wedges and Phantom putters were more than offset by lower sales volumes of drivers, fairways, hybrids and Super Select putters, which were all in their second model year.
•1.4% decrease in net sales (flat on a constant currency basis) of Titleist golf gear. Constant currency net sales were flat, as increased sales volumes in travel product categories and higher average selling prices across all product categories were offset by lower sales volumes in golf bags.
•0.6% decrease in net sales (0.7% increase on a constant currency basis) in FootJoy golf wear. The increase in constant currency was primarily due to higher net sales in apparel, partially offset by lower net sales in footwear.
Net income attributable to Acushnet Holdings Corp. decreased 4.4% to $71.4 million, year over year, primarily as a result of an increase in interest expense, net.
Adjusted EBITDA was $131.0 million, down 0.8% year over year. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 19.2% for the second quarter versus 19.2% for the prior year period.

_______________________________________________________________________________________
Consolidated net sales for the first six months increased 1.1%, or 2.3% on a constant currency basis, primarily driven by higher sales volumes in Titleist golf balls and Titleist golf clubs, partially offset by lower sales volumes in FootJoy golf wear. A decline in sales volume of products that are not allocated to one of our four reportable segments also contributed to the change in net sales.
On a geographic basis, net sales in the United States were higher across all reportable segments with increases of 11.6% in Titleist golf balls, 7.7% in Titleist golf gear, 5.0% in Titleist golf clubs and 3.0% in FootJoy golf wear. These increases were primarily driven by higher sales volumes across Titleist golf balls, Titleist golf gear and Titleist golf clubs and higher average selling prices in FootJoy golf wear apparel.
Net sales in regions outside the United States were down 6.6%, or 3.9% on a constant currency basis. In Korea, the decrease was primarily due to lower net sales of products that are not allocated to one of our four reportable segments and lower net sales in FootJoy golf wear, primarily apparel, and Titleist golf gear. In Rest of World, the decrease was primarily due to lower net sales in FootJoy golf wear, primarily footwear and apparel. In EMEA, the decrease was primarily due to lower net sales in FootJoy golf wear, primarily footwear and apparel, and lower net sales of products that are not allocated to one of our four reportable segments, partially offset by an increase in Titleist golf clubs. In Japan, net sales decreased primarily due to lower net sales in FootJoy golf wear, primarily footwear, lower net sales of Titleist golf gear and lower net sales of products that are not allocated to one of our four reportable segments, partially offset by higher net sales in Titleist golf clubs.
Segment specifics:
•6.0% increase in net sales (7.1% on a constant currency basis) of Titleist golf balls, primarily driven by higher sales volumes of Pro V1 and Pro V1x, and our latest generation AVX, Tour Soft and TruFeel models launched in the first quarter of 2024.
•3.4% increase in net sales (4.7% on a constant currency basis) of Titleist golf clubs, largely due to higher sales volumes of our SM10 wedges launched in the first quarter of 2024 and T-Series irons launched in the third quarter of 2023, partially offset by lower sales volumes of drivers, hybrids and fairways, which were all in their second model year.
•0.1% increase in net sales (1.2% on a constant currency basis) of Titleist golf gear driven by higher sales volumes in travel product categories and higher average selling prices across all product categories, partially offset by lower sales volumes in golf bags.
•3.8% decrease in net sales (2.9% on a constant currency basis) in FootJoy golf wear, largely due to lower sales volumes across all product categories and lower average selling prices in footwear, partially offset by higher average selling prices in apparel.
Net income attributable to Acushnet Holdings Corp. decreased 5.2% to $159.2 million, year over year, primarily as a result of an increase in interest expense, net as well as a decrease in income from operations and an increase in income tax expense. The decrease in income from operations was primarily related to higher operating expenses that included restructuring costs associated with the closure of certain production lines at our footwear manufacturing joint venture.
Adjusted EBITDA was $284.7 million, up 2.1% year over year. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 20.5% for the first six months versus 20.3% for the prior year period.
Cash Dividend and Share Repurchase
Acushnet's Board of Directors today declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.215 per share of common stock. The dividend will be payable on September 20, 2024 to shareholders of record on September 6, 2024. The number of shares outstanding as of July 31, 2024 was 61,813,629.

ACUSHNET HOLDINGS CORP.
Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures
(Unaudited)
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company reports its financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). However, this release includes the non-GAAP financial measures of net sales in constant currency, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin. These non-GAAP financial measures are not measures of financial performance in accordance with GAAP and may exclude items that are significant to understanding and assessing the Company’s financial results. Therefore, these measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net sales, net income or other measures of profitability or performance under GAAP. You should be aware that the Company’s presentation of these measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies.
We use net sales on a constant currency basis to evaluate the sales performance of our business in period over period comparisons and for forecasting our business going forward. Constant currency information allows us to estimate what our sales performance would have been without changes in foreign currency exchange rates. This information is calculated by taking the current period local currency net sales and translating them into U.S. dollars based upon the foreign currency exchange rates for the applicable comparable prior period. This constant currency information should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for any measure derived in accordance with GAAP. Our presentation of constant currency information may not be consistent with the manner in which similar measures are derived or used by other companies.
We define Adjusted EBITDA in a manner consistent with the term “Consolidated EBITDA” as it is defined in our credit agreement. Adjusted EBITDA represents net income attributable to Acushnet Holdings Corp. adjusted for interest expense, net, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization; and other items defined in our credit agreement, including: share-based compensation expense; restructuring and transformation costs; certain transaction fees; extraordinary, unusual or non-recurring losses or charges; indemnification expense (income); certain pension settlement costs; certain other non-cash (gains) losses, net and the net income (loss) relating to noncontrolling interests.
We present Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure because it excludes the impact of certain items that we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies, assess our consolidated operating performance and make decisions regarding pricing of our products, go to market execution and costs to incur across our business.
We believe Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors regarding our consolidated operating performance. By presenting Adjusted EBITDA, we provide a basis for comparison of our business operations between different periods by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance.
Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under GAAP. It should not be considered an alternative to net income attributable to Acushnet Holdings Corp. as a measure of our operating performance or any other measure of performance derived in accordance with GAAP. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items, or affected by similar non-recurring items. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should
not consider such measure either in isolation or as a substitute for analyzing our results as reported under GAAP. Our definition and calculation of Adjusted EBITDA is not necessarily comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies due to different methods of calculation.
We also use Adjusted EBITDA margin on a consolidated basis, which measures our Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales, because our management uses it to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies, assess our consolidated operating performance and make decisions regarding pricing of our products, go to market execution and costs to incur across our business. We present Adjusted EBITDA margin as a supplemental measure of our operating performance because it excludes the impact of certain items that we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA margin is not a measurement of financial performance under GAAP. It should not be considered an alternative to any measure of performance derived in accordance with GAAP.
The following table presents reconciliations of net income attributable to Acushnet Holdings Corp. to Adjusted EBITDA for the periods presented (dollars in thousands):

________________________
(1) For the six months ended June 30, 2024, relates to restructuring costs associated with the closure of certain production lines at our footwear manufacturing
joint venture.
(2) For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, includes $2.8 million and $5.9 million, respectively, related to the optimization of our information technology
systems.
(3) For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, includes costs associated with the optimization of our distribution and custom fulfillment capabilities.
A reconciliation of non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA, as forecasted for 2024, to the closest corresponding GAAP measure, net income, is not available without unreasonable efforts on a forward-looking basis due to the high variability and low visibility of certain charges that may impact our GAAP results on a forward-looking basis, such as the measures and effects of share-based compensation and other extraordinary, unusual or non-recurring items, net.
