Business Context and Reporting Period

This filing covers the quarterly period ended September 30, 2025 (Fiscal 2026 Q2). Under Armour, Inc. is a global developer, marketer, and distributor of branded athletic performance apparel, footwear, and accessories.

Key Financial Metrics

Material Changes vs. Prior Period

• Revenue Decline: Net revenues decreased 4.7% year-over-year (YoY) for the quarter and 4.5% for the six-month period. Footwear revenue was the primary driver of the decline, down 15.7% for the quarter.
• Margin Compression: Gross margin decreased 250 basis points to 47.3% for the quarter, primarily due to unfavorable supply chain impacts (tariffs) and channel mix.
• Profitability Shift: Operating income dropped 90.2% YoY to $17.0 million for the quarter. The company reported a net loss of $18.8 million compared to a net income of $170.4 million in the prior year quarter.
• Restructuring Charges: Restructuring charges increased significantly to $31.9 million for the quarter (up from $3.2 million YoY), driven by facility-related costs including a $15.9 million impairment for the Rialto, California distribution facility.
• SG&A Expenses: Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased 11.9% YoY for the quarter, largely due to higher marketing spend and the absence of a litigation insurance recovery recorded in the prior year.

Guidance, Outlook, and Risks

• Restructuring Plan: The company is executing a 2025 restructuring plan with total expected charges of up to $160 million. Approximately $57.4 million has been incurred to date, with an estimated $13.4 million remaining.
• Tariff Impact: Management anticipates a negative impact of approximately $100 million to cost of goods sold in Fiscal 2026 due to increased tariffs, expected to reduce gross profit by approximately 200 basis points.
• Debt Refinancing: The company issued $400 million in 7.25% Senior Notes due 2030 and used proceeds to defease $600 million in Senior Notes due 2026. The defeased notes remain on the balance sheet but are secured by restricted investments.
• Share Repurchases: The company repurchased $25 million of Class C Common Stock in the quarter. Approximately $385 million remains available under the $500 million authorization.
• Internal Controls: The company disclosed a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting related to balance sheet account reconciliations. Management is implementing remediation efforts expected to be complete by the end of Fiscal 2026.
• Litigation: The company settled derivative litigation (Kenney and Paul actions) with a payment of $8.9 million funded by insurance. However, litigation with insurance carriers regarding coverage for a prior securities class action settlement remains pending.

Investor Verification Checklist

• Tariff Mitigation: Verify the company's specific strategies to offset the anticipated $100 million tariff impact on Fiscal 2026 costs.
• Restructuring Execution: Monitor the timing and cash impact of the remaining $13.4 million in restructuring charges and the realization of operational efficiencies.
• Inventory Levels: Review inventory turnover and obsolescence risks, as inventory balances increased to $1.04 billion (up from $945.8 million at the prior fiscal year-end).
• Internal Control Remediation: Track progress on the remediation of the material weakness in financial reporting controls to ensure future financial statement reliability.
• Debt Covenants: Confirm continued compliance with leverage and interest coverage covenants under the amended credit facility, particularly given the recent debt restructuring.
