Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. From time to time, we may also provide oral or written forward-looking statements in other materials we release to the public. Such forward-looking statements are subject to the safe harbor created by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

Statements that refer to industry trends, projections of our future financial performance, anticipated trends in our business and other characterizations of future events or circumstances are forward-looking statements. These statements, which express management’s current views concerning future events or results, use words like “anticipate,” “assume,” “believe,” “continue,” “estimate,” “expect,” “future,” “intend,” “plan,” “project,” “strive,” and future or conditional tense verbs like “could,” “may,” “might,” “should,” “will,” “would,” and similar expressions or variations. Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements we make regarding

•our expectations regarding future trends, expectations, and performance of our business;

•our expectations regarding the impact on our business of economic trends;

•our belief that we have sufficient liquidity to fund our business operations during the next twelve months; and

•our expectations about the impact of our strategic plans.

Forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors, which may cause actual results to differ materially from future results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements include, without limitation, those described in the section entitled “Risk Factors” under Item 1A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 and our subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including those described in the section entitled “Risk Factors” under Item 1A in this report. Caution should be taken not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. Moreover, such forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this report. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements, except as required by applicable law.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Unless otherwise noted in this report, any description of the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our” includes Crocs, Inc. and our consolidated subsidiaries within our reportable operating segments and corporate operations. We are engaged in the design, development, worldwide marketing, distribution, and sale of casual lifestyle footwear and accessories for all. We strive to be the global leader in the sale of casual footwear characterized by functionality, comfort, color, and lightweight design.

Our reportable operating segments include: (i) the Crocs Brand and (ii) the HEYDUDE Brand. See Note 13 — Operating Segments and Geographic Information for additional information.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include our accounts and those of our wholly-owned subsidiaries and reflect all adjustments which are necessary for a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Such unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The year-end condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP.

These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (“Annual Report”) and have been prepared on a consistent basis with the accounting policies described in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report. Our accounting policies did not change during the three months ended March 31, 2024, other than with respect to the new accounting pronouncements adopted, as applicable, as described in Note 2 — Recent Accounting Pronouncements.

Reclassifications

We have reclassified certain amounts in Note 3 — Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities, Note 9 — Revenues, and Note 13 — Operating Segments and Geographic Information to conform to current period presentation.

Use of Estimates

U.S. GAAP requires us to make certain estimates, judgments, and assumptions. We believe that the estimates, judgments, and assumptions used to determine certain amounts that affect the financial statements are reasonable, based on information available at the time they are made. Management believes that the estimates, judgments, and assumptions made when accounting for items and matters such as, but not limited to, the allowance for doubtful accounts, customer rebates, sales returns and allowances, impairment assessments and charges, recoverability of long-lived assets, deferred tax assets, valuation allowances, uncertain tax positions, income tax expense, share-based compensation expense, the assessment of lower of cost or net realizable value on inventory, useful lives assigned to long-lived assets, goodwill, and indefinite-lived intangible assets are reasonable based on information available at the time they are made. To the extent there are differences between these estimates and actual results, our condensed consolidated financial statements may be materially affected.

2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

New Accounting Pronouncement Not Yet Adopted

Pillar Two Global Minimum Tax

The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) has released Pillar Two model rules introducing a 15% global minimum tax rate for large multinational corporations to be effective starting with tax periods ending in 2024. Various jurisdictions we operate in have enacted or plan to enact legislation beginning in 2024 or in subsequent years. There remains uncertainty as to the final Pillar Two rules as the OECD continues to release guidance and modifications to the rules. We do not anticipate the Pillar Two rules will have a material impact on our 2024 consolidated financial statements.

Income Taxes: Improvements to Income Tax Disclosure

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued authoritative guidance related to the disclosure of rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. This guidance becomes effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024 with early adoption permitted and should be applied on a prospective basis. We do not expect this standard to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements, but it will require increased disclosures within the notes to our consolidated financial statements.

Segment Reporting: Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures

In November 2023, the FASB issued authoritative guidance related to the segment disclosures. This guidance becomes effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted and should be applied on a retrospective basis. We do not expect this standard to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements, but it will require increased disclosures within the notes to our consolidated financial statements.

Other new pronouncements issued but not effective until after March 31, 2024 are not expected to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

5. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

All of our derivative instruments are classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and are reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheets within either ‘Prepaid expenses and other assets’ or ‘Accrued expenses and other liabilities’ at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The fair values of our derivative instruments were an insignificant asset and insignificant liability at March 31, 2024 and an insignificant asset and insignificant liability at December 31, 2023. See Note 6 — Derivative Financial Instruments for more information.

The carrying amounts of our cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, current accrued expenses and other liabilities, and our Citibank Facility approximate their fair value as recorded due to the short-term maturity of these instruments.

Our borrowing instruments are recorded at their carrying values in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, which may differ from their respective fair values. The Term Loan B Facility (as defined below) and the Notes (as defined below) are classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy and are reported in our condensed consolidated balance sheet at face value, less unamortized issuance costs. The fair value of our Revolving Facility (as defined below) approximates its carrying value at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 based on interest rates currently available to us for similar borrowings. The carrying value and fair value of our borrowing instruments as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were:


	March 31, 2024				December 31, 2023

Non-Financial Assets and Liabilities

Our non-financial assets, which primarily consist of property and equipment, right-of-use assets, goodwill, and other intangible assets, are not required to be carried at fair value on a recurring basis and are reported at carrying value.

The fair values of these assets are determined, as required, based on Level 3 measurements, including estimates of the amount and timing of future cash flows based upon historical experience, expected market conditions, and management’s plans.

6. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

We transact business in various foreign entities and are therefore exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk that impacts the reported U.S. Dollar (“USD”) amounts of revenues, expenses, and certain foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities. In order to manage exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency and to reduce the volatility in earnings caused by fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, we may enter into forward contracts to buy and sell foreign currency. By policy, we do not enter into these contracts for trading purposes or speculation.

Counterparty default risk is considered low because the forward contracts we enter into are over-the-counter instruments transacted with highly-rated financial institutions. We were not required to and did not post collateral as of March 31, 2024 or December 31, 2023.

Our derivative instruments are recorded at fair value as a derivative asset or liability in the condensed consolidated balance sheets within either ‘Prepaid expenses and other assets’ or ‘Accrued expenses and other liabilities’ at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative, whether we have elected to designate a derivative in a hedging relationship and apply hedge accounting and whether the hedging relationship has satisfied the criteria necessary to apply hedge accounting. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges. Hedge accounting generally provides for the matching of the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging instrument with the recognition of the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk in a fair value hedge or the earnings effect of the hedged transactions in a cash flow hedge. We may enter into derivative contracts that are intended to economically hedge certain components of its risk, even though hedge accounting does not apply, or we elect not to apply hedge accounting.

We report derivative instruments with the same counterparty on a net basis when a master netting arrangement is in place. For the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, we classify cash flows from derivative instruments at settlement in the same category as the cash flows from the related hedged items within ‘Cash provided by (used in) operating activities.’

As of March 31, 2024, we have derivatives not designated as hedging instruments (“non-hedged derivatives”), which consist of foreign currency forward contracts primarily used to hedge monetary assets and liabilities denominated in non-functional currencies. For our non-hedged derivatives, changes in fair value are recognized within ‘Foreign currency losses, net’ in the condensed consolidated statements of income.

We also have cash flow hedges (“hedged derivatives”) as of March 31, 2024. We are exposed to fluctuations in various foreign currencies against our functional currency, the U.S. Dollar. Specifically, we have subsidiaries that transact in currencies other than their functional currency. We use cash flow hedges to minimize the variability in cash flows caused by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates related to our external sales and external purchases of inventory. Currency forward agreements involve fixing the exchange rates for delivery of a specified amount of foreign currency on a specified date. The currency forward agreements are typically cash settled in USD for their fair value at or close to their settlement date. We may also use currency option contracts under which we will pay a premium for the right to sell a specified amount of a foreign currency prior to the maturity date of the option.

Table of Contents

For derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges of foreign exchange risk, the gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in ‘Accumulated other comprehensive loss’ in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. In the period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings, the related gain or loss is subsequently reclassified to ‘Revenues’ or ‘Cost of sales’ in the condensed consolidated statement of income, which is consistent with the nature of the hedged transaction. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, there was a gain of $0.2 million recognized due to reclassification from ‘Accumulated other comprehensive loss’ to ‘Revenues’ or ‘Cost of sales’ related to our hedged derivatives. During the next twelve months, we estimate that a gain of $0.3 million will be reclassified to our condensed consolidated statement of income.

The fair values of derivative assets and liabilities, net, all of which are classified as Level 2, reported within either ‘Accrued expenses and other liabilities’ or ‘Prepaid expenses and other assets’ in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, were:

Senior Revolving Credit Facility

In July 2019, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries (the “Borrowers”) entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”), with the lenders named therein and PNC Bank, National Association, as a lender and administrative agent for the lenders. Since that time, we have amended the Credit Agreement, which, as amended to date, provides for a revolving credit facility of $750.0 million, which can be increased by an additional $250.0 million subject to certain conditions (the “Revolving Facility”). Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a variable interest rate based on (A) a Base Rate (defined as the highest of (i) the Overnight Bank Funding Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement), plus 0.25%, (ii) the Prime Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement), and (iii) the Daily Simple SOFR (as defined in the Credit Agreement), plus 1.00%), plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.25% to 0.875% based on our leverage ratio or 1.35% to 1.975% for the Daily Simple SOFR based on the leverage ratio, or (B) the Term SOFR Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement), plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.35% to 1.975% based on our leverage ratio for one-month interest periods and 1.40% to 2.025% based on our leverage ratio for three month interest periods. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are secured by all of the assets of the Borrowers and guaranteed by certain other subsidiaries of the Borrowers.

The Credit Agreement requires or required, as applicable, us to maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio of 3.00 to 1.00, and a maximum leverage ratio of (i) 4.00 to 1.00 from the quarter ended March 31, 2022 through, and including, the quarter ended December 31, 2023, (ii) 3.75 to 1.00 for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, (iii) 3.50 to 1.00 for the quarter ending June 30, 2024, and (iv) 3.25 to 1.00 for the quarter ending September 30, 2024 and thereafter (subject to adjustment in certain circumstances). The Credit Agreement permits, among other things, (i) stock repurchases subject to certain restrictions, including after giving effect to such stock repurchases, the maximum leverage ratio does not exceed certain levels; and (ii) certain acquisitions so long as there is borrowing availability under the Credit Agreement of at least $40.0 million. As of March 31, 2024, we were in compliance with all financial covenants under the Credit Agreement.

As of March 31, 2024, the total commitments available from the lenders under the Revolving Facility were $750.0 million. At March 31, 2024, we had $265.0 million in outstanding borrowings and $1.3 million in outstanding letters of credit under the Revolving Facility, which reduces amounts available for borrowing under the Revolving Facility. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had $483.7 million and $558.7 million, respectively, of available borrowing capacity under the Revolving Facility, which matures November 2027.

Term Loan B Facility

On February 17, 2022, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “Original Term Loan B Credit Agreement”) with Citibank, N.A., as administrative agent and lender, to among other things, finance a portion of the cash consideration for the Acquisition, which was amended on August 8, 2023 (the “August 2023 Amendment”) and on February 13, 2024 (the “February 2024 Amendment”). The Original Term Loan B Credit Agreement, as amended by the August 2023 Amendment and the February 2024 Amendment is referred to herein as the “Term Loan B Credit Agreement.”

The Original Term Loan B Credit Agreement provided for an aggregate term loan B facility in the principal amount of $2.0 billion. Prior to the February 2024 Amendment, the outstanding balance was $820.0 million. Among other things, the February 2024 Amendment provided for a new $820.0 million tranche of term loans (the “2024 Refinancing Term Loans” and, such facility, the "Term Loan B Facility"), to refinance the then-outstanding principal balance. The 2024 Refinancing Term Loans are secured by substantially all of the Company’s and each subsidiary guarantor’s assets on a pari passu basis with their obligations arising from the Term Loan B Credit Agreement and is scheduled to mature on February 17, 2029, subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Term Loan B Credit Agreement. Additionally, subject to certain conditions, including, without limitation, satisfying certain leverage ratios, the Company may, at any time, on one or more occasions, add one or more new classes of term facilities and/or increase the principal amount of the loans of any existing class by requesting one or more incremental term facilities.

Pursuant to the reduced interest rate margins applicable to the 2024 Refinancing Term Loans, each term loan borrowing which is an alternate base rate borrowing bears interest at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate (as defined in the Term Loan B Credit Agreement), plus 1.25%. Each term loan borrowing which is a term SOFR borrowing bears interest at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate (as defined in the Term Loan B Credit Agreement) plus 2.25%.

As of March 31, 2024, the Term Loan B Facility was fully drawn with no remaining borrowing capacity, and we had $810.0 million in outstanding principal on the Term Loan B Facility, which matures on February 17, 2029.

The Term Loan B Credit Agreement also contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, incurrence financial covenants, representations and warranties, events of default and other provisions. As of March 31, 2024, we were in compliance with all financial covenants under the Term Loan B Credit Agreement.

Asia Revolving Credit Facility

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we had one revolving credit facility in Asia with Citibank (China) Company Limited, Shanghai Branch (the “Citibank Facility”), which, as amended, provides up to an equivalent of $15.0 million.

As of March 31, 2024, we had no borrowings outstanding on the Citibank Facility. As of December 31, 2023, we had borrowings outstanding of $3.3 million on the Citibank Facility.

Senior Notes Issuances

In March 2021, the Company completed the issuance and sale of $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.250% Senior Notes due March 15, 2029 (the “2029 Notes”), pursuant to the indenture related thereto (as amended and/or supplemented to date, the “2029 Notes Indenture”). Additionally, in August 2021, the Company completed the issuance and sale of $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.125% Senior Notes due August 15, 2031 (the “2031 Notes”), pursuant to the indenture related thereto (as amended and/or supplemented to date, “the 2031 Notes Indenture” and, together with the 2029 Notes Indenture, the “Indentures” and, each, an “Indenture”). Interest on each of the 2029 Notes and the 2031 Notes (collectively, the “Notes”) is payable semi-annually.

The Company had or will have, as applicable, the option to redeem all or any portion of the 2029 Notes, at once or over time, at any time on or after March 15, 2024, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus a premium declining ratably on an annual basis to par and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of redemption. The Company also had the option to redeem some or all of the 2029 Notes at any time before March 15, 2024 at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount to be redeemed, plus a “make-whole” premium and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of redemption. In addition, at any time before March 15, 2024, the Company could have redeemed up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2029 Notes at a redemption price of 104.250% of the principal amount with the proceeds from certain equity issuances, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of redemption.

Table of Contents

The Company will have the option to redeem all or any portion of the 2031 Notes, at once or over time, at any time on or after August 15, 2026, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus a premium declining ratably on an annual basis to par and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of redemption. The Company will also have the option to redeem some or all of the 2031 Notes at any time before August 15, 2026 at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount to be redeemed, plus a “make-whole” premium and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of redemption. In addition, at any time before August 15, 2024, the Company may redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2031 Notes at a redemption price of 104.125% of the principal amount with the proceeds from certain equity issuances, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of redemption.

The Notes rank pari passu in right of payment with all of the Company’s existing and future senior debt, including the Credit Agreement, and are senior in right of payment to any of the Company’s future debt that is, by its term, expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes. The Notes are unconditionally guaranteed by each of the Company’s restricted subsidiaries that is a borrower or guarantor under the Credit Agreement and by each of the Company’s wholly-owned restricted subsidiaries that guarantees any debt of the Company or any guarantor under any syndicated credit facility or capital markets debt in an aggregate principal amount in excess of $25.0 million.

The Indentures contain covenants that, among other things, limit the ability of the Company and its restricted subsidiaries to incur additional debt or issue certain preferred stock; pay dividends or repurchase or redeem capital stock or make other restricted payments; declare or pay dividends or other payments; incur liens; enter into certain types of transactions with the Company’s affiliates; and consolidate or merge with or into other companies. As of March 31, 2024, we were in compliance with all financial covenants under the Notes.

8. COMMON STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM

During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, we did not repurchase any shares of our common stock. As of March 31, 2024, we had an insignificant accrual recorded for the stock repurchase excise tax, which is reported in ‘Accrued expenses and other liabilities’ and ‘Treasury stock’ in our condensed consolidated balance sheet.

As of March 31, 2024, we had remaining authorization to repurchase $875.0 million of our common stock, subject to restrictions under our Indentures, Credit Agreement, and Term Loan B Credit Agreement.

10. INCOME TAXES

Income tax expense and effective tax rates were:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2024			2023
	(in thousands, except effective tax rate)
Income before income taxes	$	194,029		$	191,766
Income tax expense	41,575			42,223
Effective tax rate	21.4		%	22.0		%

The decrease in the effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023, was primarily driven by a shift in the mix of the Company's domestic and foreign earnings. Our effective income tax rate, for each period presented, also differs from the federal U.S. statutory rate due to differences in income tax rates between U.S. and foreign jurisdictions. We had unrecognized tax benefits of $549.5 million and $556.5 million at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, and we do not expect any significant changes in tax benefits in the next twelve months.

Our tax rate is volatile and may increase or decrease with changes in, among other things, the amount of income or loss by jurisdiction, our ability to utilize net operating losses and foreign tax credits, changes in tax laws, and the movement of liabilities established pursuant to accounting guidance for uncertain tax positions as statutes of limitations expire, positions are effectively settled, or when additional information becomes available.

Diluted	$	2.50	$	2.39

In the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, an insignificant number of outstanding shares issued under share-based compensation awards were anti-dilutive and, therefore, excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS.

12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Purchase Commitments

As of March 31, 2024, we had purchase commitments to third-party manufacturers, primarily for materials and supplies used in the manufacture of our products, for an aggregate of $270.6 million. We expect to fulfill our commitments under these agreements in the normal course of business, and as such, no liability has been recorded.

Other

We are regularly subject to, and are currently undergoing, audits by various tax authorities in the United States and several foreign jurisdictions, including customs duties, import, and other taxes for prior tax years.

During our normal course of business, we may make certain indemnities, commitments, and guarantees under which we may be required to make payments. We cannot determine a range of estimated future payments and have not recorded any liability for indemnities, commitments, and guarantees in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

We are also subject to litigation from time to time in the ordinary course of business, including employment, intellectual property, and product liability claims. We are not party to any significant pending legal proceedings that we believe would reasonably have a material adverse impact on our business, financial results, and cash flows.

13. OPERATING SEGMENTS AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION

We have two reportable operating segments: the Crocs Brand and the HEYDUDE Brand. Each of the reportable operating segments derives its revenues from the sale of footwear and accessories to external customers.

Additionally, ‘Enterprise corporate’ costs include global corporate costs associated with both brands, including legal, information technology, human resources, and finance.

Each segment’s performance is evaluated based on segment results without allocating Enterprise corporate expenses. Segment profits or losses include adjustments to eliminate inter-segment sales. Reconciling items between segment income from operations and income from operations consist of unallocated enterprise corporate expenses.

We do not report asset information by segment because that information is not used to evaluate performance or allocate resources between segments.

Table of Contents

The following tables set forth information related to reportable operating segments:


	Three Months Ended March 31,

HEYDUDE Brand	4,216		3,506

Enterprise corporate	3,409		2,193
Total consolidated depreciation and amortization	$	16,161	$	13,136

(1) Our business has continued to evolve in the period following the consummation of the HEYDUDE acquisition, as we have grown the brand and staffed and developed our leadership team at HEYDUDE. In the fourth quarter of 2023, to reflect changes in the way management evaluates performance, makes operating decisions, and allocates resources, we updated our reportable operating segments to be (i) Crocs Brand and (ii) HEYDUDE Brand. Our ‘North America,’ ‘Asia Pacific,’ and ‘EMEALA’ segments as well as revenues and expenses related to Crocs ‘Brand corporate’ have been consolidated to the ‘Crocs Brand.’ As a result of these changes, the previously reported amounts for revenues, income from operations, and depreciation and amortization for the three months ended March 31, 2023 have been recast to conform to current period presentation.

(2) In the first quarter of 2024, to reflect a change in the way management evaluates segment performance, makes operating decisions, and allocates resources, we made changes to segment profitability related to certain foreign currency amounts impacting cost of sales. These amounts have shifted costs or benefits that were previously presented in each of our reportable segments to ‘Enterprise corporate.’ We believe that the impact of these changes on prior periods is insignificant to each segment and thus have not recast prior periods.

ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Business Overview

Crocs, Inc. and our consolidated subsidiaries (collectively the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) are engaged in the design, development, worldwide marketing, distribution, and sale of casual lifestyle footwear and accessories for all. We strive to be the world leader in innovative casual footwear for women, men, and children, combining comfort and style with a value that consumers want.

Known or Anticipated Trends

Based on our recent operating results and current perspectives on our operating environment, we anticipate certain trends will continue to impact our operating results:

•We entered 2024 operating in an environment where consumers are feeling the effects of elevated interest rates and inflation, and as a result, they are spending more cautiously. In addition, geopolitical tensions remain across the globe. We remain focused on making the right decisions for the health of our brands, maintaining tight inventory control, and investing in strategic initiatives to support durable long-term growth.

•We continue to invest in our strategic pillars, including marketing globally for both brands, China and sandal market penetration for the Crocs Brand, product innovation, and various initiatives supporting our global digital business.

•We completed the move to our new HEYDUDE distribution center during the quarter. While this has had an unfavorable impact on gross margins for the brand in the short-term, we expect to realize the benefits of this move on our margins going forward.

•Our liquidity position remains strong with approximately $159.3 million in cash and cash equivalents and $498.7 million in available borrowing capacity as of March 31, 2024. Our total borrowings were $1.73 billion as of March 31, 2024. Enabled by our strong liquidity position, we expect to pay down debt and make share repurchases throughout the remainder of the year.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to financial measures presented on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), we present certain information related to our results of operations through “constant currency,” which is a non-GAAP financial measure and should be viewed as a supplement to our results of operations and presentation of reportable segments under U.S. GAAP. Constant currency represents current period results that have been retranslated using prior year average foreign exchange rates for the comparative period to enhance the visibility of the underlying business trends, excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange rates on reported amounts.

Management uses constant currency to assist in comparing business trends from period to period on a consistent basis in communications with the Board, stockholders, analysts, and investors concerning our financial performance. We believe constant currency is useful to investors and other users of our condensed consolidated financial statements as an additional tool to evaluate operating performance and trends. Investors should not consider constant currency in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

First Quarter 2024 Financial and Operational Highlights

Revenues were $938.6 million for the first quarter of 2024, a 6.2% increase compared to the first quarter of 2023. The increase was due to the net effects of: (i) higher average selling price on a constant currency basis (“ASP”), which increased revenues by $90.7 million, or 10.3%; (ii) lower unit sales volume in the HEYDUDE Brand, partially offset by higher unit sales volume in the Crocs Brand, which resulted in a net decrease in revenues of $29.7 million, or 3.4%; and (iii) net unfavorable changes in exchange rates, which decreased revenues by $6.6 million, or 0.7%.

The following were significant developments affecting our businesses and capital structure during the three months ended March 31, 2024:

•We grew revenues in the Crocs Brand by 14.6% compared to the same period in 2023.

•Gross margin was 55.6%, an increase of 170 basis points from last year’s first quarter. This was primarily due to lower freight and product costs.

Table of Contents

•Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) were $295.6 million compared to $241.4 million in the first quarter of 2023, as a result of various impairment charges in the current year, as discussed below, and an increased investment in talent. As a percent of revenues, SG&A increased to 31.5% of revenues compared to 27.3% of revenues in the first quarter of 2023.

•Income from operations decreased to $226.4 million from $234.9 million in last year’s first quarter. Net income was $152.5 million, or $2.50 per diluted share, compared to $149.5 million, or $2.39 per diluted share, in last year’s first quarter.

Revenues. In the three months ended March 31, 2024, revenues increased compared to the same period in 2023. This was primarily due to higher ASP of $90.7 million, or 10.3%, driven in part by product mix, customer mix, international price increases and lower discounts for the Crocs Brand. The overall increase was offset in part by lower volume of $29.7 million, or 3.4%, driven by lower volume for the HEYDUDE Brand, partially offset by higher volume for the Crocs Brand in both channels. Net unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations also decreased revenues by $6.6 million, or 0.7%.

Gross margin. Gross margin increased in the three months ended March 31, 2024 to 55.6% compared to 53.9% in the same period in 2023. This was primarily driven by lower freight and product costs of 160 basis points.

Selling, general and administrative expenses. SG&A increased $54.2 million, or 22.5%, in the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. This is due in part to an $18.2 million impairment charge for information technology systems related to the HEYDUDE integration and an increased investment of talent of $16.4 million. An increased investment in marketing of $8.5 million, impairment charges of $5.9 million related to our former warehouses in Las Vegas, Nevada and the Netherlands, higher facilities costs of $4.6 million, and net other costs of $0.6 million also contributed to the increase in SG&A.

Foreign currency losses, net. Foreign currency losses, net, consist of realized and unrealized foreign currency gains and losses from the remeasurement and settlement of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in non-functional currencies as well as realized and unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency derivative instruments. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we recognized realized and unrealized net foreign currency losses of $2.3 million compared to losses of $0.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Interest expense. Interest expense during the three months ended March 31, 2024 decreased $12.1 million, or 28.3%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023 due to lower outstanding borrowings and lower weighted average interest rates on both the Term Loan B Facility and the Revolving Facility (each as defined herein) in the current year.

Income tax expense. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, income tax expense decreased $0.6 million compared to the same period in 2023. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was 21.4% compared to an effective tax rate of 22.0% for the same period in 2023, a 0.6% decrease. This decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily driven by a shift in the mix of the Company's domestic and foreign earnings. Our effective income tax rate, for each period presented, also differs from the federal U.S. statutory rate due to differences in income tax rates between U.S. and foreign jurisdictions.

(2) Our business has continued to evolve in the period following the consummation of the HEYDUDE acquisition, as we have grown the brand and staffed and developed our leadership team at HEYDUDE. In the fourth quarter of 2023, to reflect changes in the way management evaluates performance, makes operating decisions, and allocates resources, we updated our reportable operating segments to be (i) Crocs Brand and (ii) HEYDUDE Brand. Our ‘North America,’ ‘Asia Pacific,’ and ‘EMEALA’ segments as well as revenues and expenses related to Crocs ‘Brand corporate’ have been consolidated to the ‘Crocs Brand.’ As a result of these changes, the previously reported amounts for revenues and income from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023 have been recast to conform to current period presentation.

(3) In the first quarter of 2024, to reflect a change in the way management evaluates segment performance, makes operating decisions, and allocates resources, we made changes to segment profitability related to certain foreign currency amounts impacting cost of sales. These amounts have shifted costs or benefits that were previously presented in each of our reportable segments to ‘Enterprise corporate.’ We believe that the impact of these changes on prior periods is insignificant to each segment and thus have not recast prior periods.

Crocs Brand

Revenues. Crocs Brand revenues increased in the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. This increase was due in part to higher ASP, primarily as a result of product mix, customer mix, select price increases in international markets, and less discounting than the prior year. Higher volume in both channels also drove the increase in revenues while net unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations partially offset the overall increase to revenues.

Income from Operations. Income from operations for our Crocs Brand segment was $264.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, an increase of $46.1 million, or 21.2%, compared to the same period in 2023. Gross margin was 58.1%, an increase of 230 basis points compared to prior year, primarily due to favorable customer mix, which was largely driven by the termination of our relationship with a significant distributor in the second quarter of 2023 following evidence that it was selling goods outside of its approved territories, price increases in international markets, and lower freight costs. The overall increase in gross margin was partially offset by higher royalty expense.

SG&A for our Crocs Brand segment increased $24.2 million, or 16.8%, during the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. This increase was primarily due to higher marketing costs, higher variable expenses related to higher revenues in the DTC channel, and an increased investment in talent.

HEYDUDE Brand

Revenues. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, revenues decreased compared to 2023. This decrease was primarily due to lower volume in both channels. Higher ASP, primarily due to favorable channel and product mix, partially offset the overall decrease to revenues.

Table of Contents

Income from Operations. Income from operations for the HEYDUDE segment was $40.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, a decrease of $36.5 million, or 47.6%, compared to 2023. Gross margin was 46.2%, a decrease of 340 basis points, primarily due to transition costs and infrastructure investments associated with the move to our new HEYDUDE distribution center in Las Vegas, Nevada in the current year. The overall decrease was partially offset by lower freight costs.

SG&A for the HEYDUDE Brand segment increased $9.8 million, or 24.4%, during the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. This increase was primarily due to impairment costs of the right-of-use assets for our former HEYDUDE Brand warehouses in Las Vegas, Nevada in the current year and higher compensation costs as we continue to invest in talent while we grow the HEYDUDE Brand.

Enterprise Corporate

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, total net costs within ‘Enterprise corporate’ increased $18.1 million, or 30.4%, compared to the same period in 2023. This increase was primarily due to an impairment charge for information technology systems related to the HEYDUDE integration and an increased investment in talent.

Store Locations and Direct-to-Consumer Comparable Sales

As of March 31, 2024, we had 349 company-operated retail locations for the Crocs Brand, inclusive of 170 retail locations in North America and 179 retail locations internationally. As of March 31, 2024, we had 19 company-operated retail locations for the HEYDUDE Brand, inclusive of 8 temporary clearance stores. As of March 31, 2023, we had 339 company-operated retail locations for the Crocs Brand, inclusive of 172 retail locations in North America and 167 retail locations internationally. As of March 31, 2023, we had 8 company-operated retail locations for the HEYDUDE Brand, all of which were temporary clearance stores.

(2) Comparable store status, as included in the DTC comparable sales figures above, is determined on a monthly basis. Comparable store sales include the revenues of stores that have been in operation for more than twelve months. Stores in which selling square footage has changed more than 15% as a result of a remodel, expansion, or reduction are excluded until the thirteenth month in which they have comparable prior year sales. Temporarily closed stores are excluded from the comparable store sales calculation during the month of closure and in the same month in the following year. Location closures in excess of three months are excluded until the thirteenth month post re-opening. E-commerce comparable revenues are based on same site sales period over period. E-commerce sites that are temporarily offline or unable to transact or fulfill orders (“site disruption”) are excluded from the comparable sales calculation during the month of site disruption and in the same month in the following year. E-commerce site disruptions in excess of three months are excluded until the thirteenth month after the site has re-opened. Additionally, comparable sales do not include leap days in leap years.

Financial Condition, Capital Resources, and Liquidity

Liquidity

Our liquidity position as of March 31, 2024 was:


	March 31, 2024
	(in thousands)
Cash and cash equivalents	$	159,286
Available borrowings	498,689

As of March 31, 2024, we had $159.3 million in cash and cash equivalents and up to $498.7 million of available borrowings, including $483.7 million of remaining borrowing availability under the Revolving Facility (as defined below) and $15.0 million of remaining borrowing availability under the Citibank Facility (as defined below). As of March 31, 2024, the Term Loan B Facility (as defined below) was fully drawn and there was no available borrowing capacity. We believe that cash flows from operations, our cash and cash equivalents on hand, and available borrowings under our Revolving Facility will be sufficient to meet our ongoing liquidity needs and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next twelve months.

Additional future financing may be necessary to fund our operations and there can be no assurance that, if needed, we will be able to secure additional debt or equity financing on terms acceptable to us or at all. Although we believe we have adequate sources of liquidity over the long term, the success of our operations, global economic conditions, and the pace of sustainable growth in our markets, among other things, could each impact our business and liquidity.

Repatriation of Cash

As a global business, we have cash balances in various countries and amounts are denominated in various currencies. Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates impact our results of operations and cash positions. Future fluctuations in foreign currencies may have a material impact on our cash flows and capital resources. Cash balances held in foreign countries may have additional restrictions and covenants associated with them which could adversely impact our liquidity and our ability to timely access and transfer cash balances between entities.

All of the cash held outside of the U.S. could be repatriated to the U.S. as of March 31, 2024 without incurring additional U.S. federal income taxes. In some countries, repatriation of certain foreign balances is restricted by local laws. These limitations may affect our ability to fully utilize our cash resources for needs in the U.S. or other countries and could adversely affect our liquidity. As of March 31, 2024, we held $118.7 million of our total $159.3 million in cash in international locations. This cash is primarily used for the ongoing operations of the business in the locations in which the cash is held. Of the $118.7 million, $2.7 million could potentially be restricted by local laws.

Senior Revolving Credit Facility

including after giving effect to such stock repurchases, the maximum leverage ratio does not exceed certain levels; and (ii) certain acquisitions so long as there is borrowing availability under the Credit Agreement of at least $40.0 million. As of March 31, 2024, we were in compliance with all financial covenants under the Credit Agreement.

Term Loan B Facility

Asia Revolving Credit Facility

As of March 31, 2024, we had no borrowings outstanding on the Citibank Facility. As of December 31, 2023, we had borrowings outstanding of $3.3 million on the Citibank Facility.

Operating Activities. Cash provided by operating activities consists of net income adjusted for noncash items and changes in working capital. Cash provided by operating activities decreased $37.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023, driven by decreases in operating assets and liabilities of $81.2 million, primarily due to the change in accounts receivable, net of allowances, partially offset by higher net income, adjusted for non-cash items, of $43.7 million.

Investing Activities. There was a $11.8 million decrease in cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. This was due to a decrease in purchases of property, equipment, and software.

Financing Activities. Cash used in financing activities decreased by $107.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease in cash used in financing activities was primarily due to a

decrease in repayments on borrowings of $239.6 million, a decrease of $4.5 million in repurchases of common stock for tax withholding, and an increase in cash provided by other financing activities of $0.1 million. The overall decrease in cash used in financing activities was partially offset by a decrease in proceeds from borrowings of $136.5 million and an increase of $0.6 million in deferred debt issuance costs.

Contractual Obligations

There have been no significant changes to the contractual obligations reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, other than borrowings and repayments on the Term Loan B Facility, Revolving Facility, and Citibank Facility.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We had no material off-balance sheet arrangements as of March 31, 2024, other than certain purchase commitments, which are described in Note 12 — Commitments and Contingencies in the accompanying notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I - Item 1. Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, sales, and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate our assumptions and estimates on an on-going basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.

For a complete discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates, please refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 and Note 1 — Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the accompanying notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I - Item 1.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

We centrally manage our debt and investment portfolios considering investment opportunities and risks, tax consequences, and overall financing strategies. Our exposure to market risk includes interest rate fluctuations in connection with our Revolving Facility and certain financial instruments.

Borrowings under our Term Loan B Facility and Revolving Facility bear interest at a variable rate and are therefore subject to risk based upon prevailing market interest rates. Interest rates fluctuate as a result of many factors, including governmental monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political considerations, and other factors that are beyond our control.

As of March 31, 2024, we had borrowings with a face value of $1,775.0 million, comprised of the Notes, which carry a fixed rate, the Term Loan B Facility, and borrowings under our Revolving Facility. We also had $1.3 million in outstanding letters of credit under our Revolving Facility as of March 31, 2024. As of December 31, 2023, we had long-term borrowings with a face value of $1,713.3 million and $1.3 million in outstanding letters of credit under our Revolving Facility.

A hypothetical increase of 1% in the interest rate on the variable rate borrowings under our Term Loan B Facility and Revolving Facility would increase our interest expense over the next twelve months by $10.8 million based on the balances outstanding for these borrowings as of March 31, 2024.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

Changes in exchange rates have a direct effect on our reported U.S. Dollar condensed consolidated financial statements because we translate the operating results and financial position of our international subsidiaries to U.S. Dollars using current period exchange rates. Specifically, we translate the statements of income of our foreign subsidiaries into the U.S. Dollar reporting currency using exchange rates in effect during each reporting period. As a result, comparisons of reported results between reporting periods may be impacted significantly due to differences in the exchange rates in effect at the time such exchange rates are used to translate the operating results of our international subsidiaries.

An increase of 1% of the value of the U.S. Dollar relative to foreign currencies when translating our financial results would have decreased our revenues and income before taxes during the three months ended March 31, 2024 by $4.0 million and $1.4 million, respectively. This analysis does not account for transactional fluctuations in accounts, such as those driven by purchasing power, which is defined as purchasing foreign goods in the U.S. Dollar but recognizing the cost in foreign currencies. The volatility of the exchange rates is dependent on many factors that cannot be forecasted with reliable accuracy.

In order to manage exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency and to reduce the volatility in earnings caused by fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, we may enter into forward foreign exchange contracts to buy or sell various foreign currencies. Changes in the fair value of these forward contracts are recognized in earnings in the period that the changes occur or in the period in which the hedged transaction affects earnings for derivatives classified as non-hedged or hedged, respectively, as defined in Note 6 — Derivative Financial Instruments in the accompanying notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I - Item 1. Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. As of March 31, 2024, the U.S. Dollar notional value of our outstanding foreign currency forward exchange contracts was approximately $183.2 million. The fair value of these contracts at March 31, 2024 was an insignificant asset.

We perform a sensitivity analysis to determine the effects that market risk exposures may have on the fair values of our foreign currency forward exchange contracts. To perform the sensitivity analysis, we assess the risk of changes in fair values from the effect of hypothetical changes in foreign currency exchange rates. This analysis assumes a like movement by the foreign currencies in our hedge portfolio against the U.S. Dollar. As of March 31, 2024, a 10% appreciation in the value of the U.S. Dollar would result in a net decrease in the fair value of our derivative portfolio of approximately $2.9 million.

See Part I - Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a discussion of the impact of the change in foreign exchange rates on our U.S. Dollar condensed consolidated statements of income for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as such item is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”) as of March 31, 2024. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2024, to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management necessarily applies its judgment in assessing the costs and benefits of such controls and procedures that, by their nature, can only provide reasonable assurance regarding management’s control objectives.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f)) during the three months ended March 31, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

b.You will at all times during and after your employment: (i) keep confidential and not disclose or make available to any person any Confidential Information, except that you may disclose such Confidential Information to the Company or any person that is authorized by the Company to have access to the Confidential Information in question; and, (ii) not use any Confidential Information for your own benefit or the benefit of any other person other than in connection with the proper and lawful performance of your services to the Company and in conformance with the policies of the Company.

a.To the extent permitted by applicable law, all Work Product (defined below) that is a work of authorship is deemed a “work made for hire” in accordance with the applicable law, and the Company is the sole owner of all such Work Product and all underlying rights therein without any further obligations to you. If the Work Product, or any portion thereof, is not a work made for hire, you hereby irrevocably convey, transfer and assign to the Company, throughout the world, all of your rights, title, and interest (including to all patent, trademark, copyright and trade secret rights, including the right to enforce such rights against past infringers) in and to all Work Product (as defined below), including the right to receive all past, present, and future proceeds and damages therefrom. To the extent any of the rights, title or interests in or to any Work Product cannot be assigned by you to the Company (including any rights of attribution, integrity, withdraw, or any other “moral rights of authors” existing under statutory, common or any other law), to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you hereby irrevocably waive and agree never to assert any such rights, title and interest against the Company.

b.You will keep full and complete written records of and promptly disclose to the Company all Work Product. You will promptly execute upon the Company’s lawful request any documents or instruments requested by the Company in order to formally convey and transfer to the Company or its designee title to any such Work Product, to confirm the Company or its designee’s title therein, and in order to enable the Company or its designee to evidence, secure, protect, obtain, defend, or enforce any intellectual property rights pertaining to the Work Product. You will perform your obligations under this section without further compensation, except for reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred at the request of the Company. If the Company is unable, due to your unavailability or for any other reason, to secure your signature with respect to any documents in connection with any action described in this section (b), you hereby irrevocably designate and appoint the Company and its duly authorized officers and agents as your agent and attorney-in-fact, to act for and on your behalf to execute such documents and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further any application for, or any

Exhibit 10.2

Execution Version

prosecution, issuance, maintenance, assignment or transfer of, any proprietary rights pertaining or related to any of the Work Product, or to otherwise carry out the purposes of this Agreement, with the same legal force and effect as if originally executed by you. This designation and appointment is deemed coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.

11. Company Authorization for Publication - Prior to submitting, disclosing for possible publication or disseminating outside the Company (such as through public speaking engagements or literature), any material you prepare that incorporates information that concerns the Company’s business, you agree to deliver a copy of such material to an officer of the Company for his or her

review. The Company agrees to notify you in writing whether it believes such material contains any Confidential Information or Work Product and you agree to make such deletions and revisions as are reasonably requested by the Company to protect its Confidential Information or Work Product. You further agree to obtain the written consent of the Company prior to any review of such material by persons outside the Company.

12. Employee Obligations - Your Restrictive Covenants Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit A.

13. Survival - Your obligations under Sections 9-12 of this Agreement will survive the termination of your employment (whether voluntary or involuntary) with the Company. The Company is also entitled to communicate your obligations under Sections 9-12 of this Agreement to your future or potential employer.

14. Remedies - Since a material purpose of this Agreement is to protect the Company’s investment in you and to secure the benefits of your background and general experience in the industry, the parties hereto agree and acknowledge that money damages may not be an adequate remedy for any breach of this Agreement and that any such breach may cause the Company irreparable harm. Therefore, in the event of a breach by you of any of the provisions of this Agreement, the Company or its successors and assigns shall be entitled to seek specific performance and/or injunctive relief or other relief in order to enforce or prevent any violations of the provisions of this Agreement. Such relief shall be in addition to other rights and remedies existing in the Company’s favor and shall be granted without the posting of a bond or other security and without proof of actual damages.

15. Entire Agreement - This Agreement contains the entire understanding between the parties relating to your employment and supersedes all prior statements, representations or agreements, whether written or oral, made to you by any representative of the Company relating to your employment, including your Promotion Offer dated January 28, 2024. No modification of or amendment to this Agreement, nor any waiver of any rights under this Agreement, will be effective unless in writing and signed by the party to be charged.

16. Governing Law and Venue - The validity, enforceability, construction and interpretation of this Agreement are governed by the laws of the State of Colorado. The parties also agree that in the event a dispute arises regarding this Agreement, the parties will submit to the jurisdiction of the federal and state courts of the State of Colorado. You expressly waive any objection as to jurisdiction or venue in the state and federal courts located in Broomfield County, Colorado.

17. Miscellaneous - The obligations set forth in this Agreement will apply to any time during which you were previously engaged (including prior to the Start Date). Any subsequent change or changes in the terms and/or condition of your employment with the Company, including changes in your title, duties, salary or compensation, will not affect the validity or scope of this Agreement. Each provision contained in this Agreement constitutes a separate and distinct provision severable from all other provisions. If any provision (or any part thereof) is unenforceable under

Exhibit 10.2

Execution Version

or prohibited by any present or future law, then such provision (or part thereof) will be amended, and is hereby amended, so as to be in compliance with such law while preserving, to the maximum extent possible, the intent of the original provision. Any provision (or part thereof) that cannot be so amended will be severed from this Agreement and all the remaining provisions of this Agreement will remain unimpaired. This Agreement is for your benefit and the benefit of the Company, its successors, assigns, parent corporations, subsidiaries, affiliates, and purchasers, and will be binding upon your heirs, executors, administrators and other legal representatives. The Company may freely assign this Agreement without your consent. The words “include,” “includes,” and “including” will be deemed to be followed by “without limitation.” The words “this Agreement,” “herein,” “hereof,” “hereby,” “hereunder,” and words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular subdivision unless expressly so limited.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS	RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS New Accounting Pronouncement Not Yet Adopted Pillar Two Global Minimum Tax The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) has released Pillar Two model rules introducing a 15% global minimum tax rate for large multinational corporations to be effective starting with tax periods ending in 2024. Various jurisdictions we operate in have enacted or plan to enact legislation beginning in 2024 or in subsequent years. There remains uncertainty as to the final Pillar Two rules as the OECD continues to release guidance and modifications to the rules. We do not anticipate the Pillar Two rules will have a material impact on our 2024 consolidated financial statements. Income Taxes: Improvements to Income Tax Disclosure In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued authoritative guidance related to the disclosure of rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. This guidance becomes effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024 with early adoption permitted and should be applied on a prospective basis. We do not expect this standard to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements, but it will require increased disclosures within the notes to our consolidated financial statements. Segment Reporting: Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures In November 2023, the FASB issued authoritative guidance related to the segment disclosures. This guidance becomes effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted and should be applied on a retrospective basis. We do not expect this standard to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements, but it will require increased disclosures within the notes to our consolidated financial statements. Other new pronouncements issued but not effective until after March 31, 2024 are not expected to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies)	3 Months Ended
	Mar. 31, 2024
Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Unless otherwise noted in this report, any description of the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our” includes Crocs, Inc. and our consolidated subsidiaries within our reportable operating segments and corporate operations. We are engaged in the design, development, worldwide marketing, distribution, and sale of casual lifestyle footwear and accessories for all. We strive to be the global leader in the sale of casual footwear characterized by functionality, comfort, color, and lightweight design.
Segment Reporting	Our reportable operating segments include: (i) the Crocs Brand and (ii) the HEYDUDE Brand. See Note 13 — Operating Segments and Geographic Information for additional information.
Principles of Consolidation	The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include our accounts and those of our wholly-owned subsidiaries and reflect all adjustments which are necessary for a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Such unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The year-end condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (“Annual Report”) and have been prepared on a consistent basis with the accounting policies described in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report.
Reclassifications	Reclassifications We have reclassified certain amounts in Note 3 — Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities, Note 9 — Revenues, and Note 13 — Operating Segments and Geographic Information to conform to current period presentation.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates U.S. GAAP requires us to make certain estimates, judgments, and assumptions. We believe that the estimates, judgments, and assumptions used to determine certain amounts that affect the financial statements are reasonable, based on information available at the time they are made. Management believes that the estimates, judgments, and assumptions made when accounting for items and matters such as, but not limited to, the allowance for doubtful accounts, customer rebates, sales returns and allowances, impairment assessments and charges, recoverability of long-lived assets, deferred tax assets, valuation allowances, uncertain tax positions, income tax expense, share-based compensation expense, the assessment of lower of cost or net realizable value on inventory, useful lives assigned to long-lived assets, goodwill, and indefinite-lived intangible assets are reasonable based on information available at the time they are made. To the extent there are differences between these estimates and actual results, our condensed consolidated financial statements may be materially affected.
New Accounting Pronouncement Not Yet Adopted	New Accounting Pronouncement Not Yet Adopted Pillar Two Global Minimum Tax The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) has released Pillar Two model rules introducing a 15% global minimum tax rate for large multinational corporations to be effective starting with tax periods ending in 2024. Various jurisdictions we operate in have enacted or plan to enact legislation beginning in 2024 or in subsequent years. There remains uncertainty as to the final Pillar Two rules as the OECD continues to release guidance and modifications to the rules. We do not anticipate the Pillar Two rules will have a material impact on our 2024 consolidated financial statements. Income Taxes: Improvements to Income Tax Disclosure In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued authoritative guidance related to the disclosure of rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. This guidance becomes effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024 with early adoption permitted and should be applied on a prospective basis. We do not expect this standard to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements, but it will require increased disclosures within the notes to our consolidated financial statements. Segment Reporting: Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures In November 2023, the FASB issued authoritative guidance related to the segment disclosures. This guidance becomes effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted and should be applied on a retrospective basis. We do not expect this standard to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements, but it will require increased disclosures within the notes to our consolidated financial statements. Other new pronouncements issued but not effective until after March 31, 2024 are not expected to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Fair Value of Non-Financial Assets and Liabilities	Non-Financial Assets and Liabilities Our non-financial assets, which primarily consist of property and equipment, right-of-use assets, goodwill, and other intangible assets, are not required to be carried at fair value on a recurring basis and are reported at carrying value.
Derivatives Financial Instruments	We transact business in various foreign entities and are therefore exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk that impacts the reported U.S. Dollar (“USD”) amounts of revenues, expenses, and certain foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities. In order to manage exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency and to reduce the volatility in earnings caused by fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, we may enter into forward contracts to buy and sell foreign currency. By policy, we do not enter into these contracts for trading purposes or speculation. Counterparty default risk is considered low because the forward contracts we enter into are over-the-counter instruments transacted with highly-rated financial institutions. We were not required to and did not post collateral as of March 31, 2024 or December 31, 2023. Our derivative instruments are recorded at fair value as a derivative asset or liability in the condensed consolidated balance sheets within either ‘Prepaid expenses and other assets’ or ‘Accrued expenses and other liabilities’ at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative, whether we have elected to designate a derivative in a hedging relationship and apply hedge accounting and whether the hedging relationship has satisfied the criteria necessary to apply hedge accounting. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges. Hedge accounting generally provides for the matching of the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging instrument with the recognition of the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk in a fair value hedge or the earnings effect of the hedged transactions in a cash flow hedge. We may enter into derivative contracts that are intended to economically hedge certain components of its risk, even though hedge accounting does not apply, or we elect not to apply hedge accounting. We report derivative instruments with the same counterparty on a net basis when a master netting arrangement is in place. For the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, we classify cash flows from derivative instruments at settlement in the same category as the cash flows from the related hedged items within ‘Cash provided by (used in) operating activities.’ As of March 31, 2024, we have derivatives not designated as hedging instruments (“non-hedged derivatives”), which consist of foreign currency forward contracts primarily used to hedge monetary assets and liabilities denominated in non-functional currencies. For our non-hedged derivatives, changes in fair value are recognized within ‘Foreign currency losses, net’ in the condensed consolidated statements of income. We also have cash flow hedges (“hedged derivatives”) as of March 31, 2024. We are exposed to fluctuations in various foreign currencies against our functional currency, the U.S. Dollar. Specifically, we have subsidiaries that transact in currencies other than their functional currency. We use cash flow hedges to minimize the variability in cash flows caused by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates related to our external sales and external purchases of inventory. Currency forward agreements involve fixing the exchange rates for delivery of a specified amount of foreign currency on a specified date. The currency forward agreements are typically cash settled in USD for their fair value at or close to their settlement date. We may also use currency option contracts under which we will pay a premium for the right to sell a specified amount of a foreign currency prior to the maturity date of the option. For derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges of foreign exchange risk, the gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in ‘Accumulated other comprehensive loss’ in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. In the period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings, the related gain or loss is subsequently reclassified to ‘Revenues’ or ‘Cost of sales’ in the condensed consolidated statement of income, which is consistent with the nature of the hedged transaction.
