ITEM 1.      FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

 

 

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and include the accounts of Acushnet Holdings Corp. (the “Company”), its wholly-owned subsidiaries and less than wholly-owned subsidiaries, including a variable interest entity (“VIE”) in which the Company is the primary beneficiary. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Certain information in footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements has been condensed or omitted for the interim periods presented in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and U.S. GAAP. The year-end balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements; however, the accompanying interim notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. In the opinion of management, the financial statements contain all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to state fairly the financial position and results of operations of the Company. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2023, nor were those of the comparable 2022 periods representative of those actually experienced for the full year ended December 31, 2022. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 1, 2023.

The preparation of the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

VIEs are entities that, by design, either (i) lack sufficient equity to permit the entity to finance its activities independently, or (ii) have equity holders that do not have the power to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact its economic performance, the obligation to absorb the entity’s expected losses, or the right to receive the entity’s expected residual returns. The Company consolidates a VIE when it is the primary beneficiary, which is the party that has both (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and (ii) through its interests in the VIE, the obligation to absorb expected losses or the right to receive expected benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE.

The Company consolidates the accounts of Acushnet Lionscore Limited, a VIE which is 40% owned by the Company. The sole purpose of the VIE is to manufacture the Company’s golf footwear and as such, the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary. The Company has presented separately on its unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, to the extent material, the assets of its consolidated VIE that can only be used to settle specific obligations of its consolidated VIE and the liabilities of its consolidated VIE for which creditors do not have recourse to its general credit. The general creditors of the VIE do not have recourse to the Company. Certain directors of the VIE have guaranteed the credit lines of the VIE, for which there were no outstanding borrowings as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the agreement governing the VIE, the Company is not required to provide financial support to the VIE.

The ownership interests held by owners other than the Company in less than wholly-owned subsidiaries are classified as noncontrolling interests. The financial results and position of noncontrolling interests are included in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The value attributable to the noncontrolling interests is presented on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, separately from the equity attributable to the Company. Net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests are presented separately on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income, respectively.

Redeemable noncontrolling interests are those noncontrolling interests which are or may become redeemable at a fixed or determinable price on a fixed or determinable date, at the option of the holder, or upon occurrence of an event. The Company initially records the redeemable noncontrolling interest at its acquisition date fair value. The carrying amount of the redeemable noncontrolling interest is subsequently adjusted to the greater amount of either the initial carrying amount, increased or decreased for the redeemable noncontrolling interest's share of comprehensive income (loss) or the redemption value, assuming the noncontrolling interest is redeemable at the balance sheet date. This adjustment is recognized through retained earnings and is not reflected in net income (loss) or comprehensive income (loss). During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded a $1.0 million redemption value adjustment to increase the carrying value of redeemable noncontrolling interests. The value attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests and any related loans to minority shareholders, which are recorded as a reduction to redeemable noncontrolling interests, are presented in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as temporary equity between liabilities and shareholders’ equity. The amount of the loan to minority shareholders was $4.4 million as of both September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Cash held in Company checking accounts is included in cash. Cash equivalents consist of short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less which are readily convertible into cash. The Company classifies as restricted certain cash that is not available for use in its operations. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the amount of restricted cash included in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets was $1.7 million and $1.8 million, respectively.

Foreign currency transaction losses included in selling, general and administrative expenses were $0.9 million and $6.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Foreign currency transaction losses included in selling, general and administrative expenses were $3.4 million and $15.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

The Company considers the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standards Updates ("ASUs"). Management determined that recently issued ASUs are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

The Company estimates expected credit losses using a number of factors, including customer credit ratings, age of receivables, historical credit loss information and current and forecasted economic conditions, which could affect the collectability of the reported amounts. All of these factors have been considered in the estimate of expected credit losses for the periods presented.

The activity related to the allowance for doubtful accounts was as follows:

The components of inventories were as follows: 

The Company has defined warranties generally ranging from one to two years. Products covered by the defined warranty policies primarily include all Titleist golf products, FootJoy golf shoes and FootJoy golf outerwear. These product warranties generally obligate the Company to pay for the cost of replacement products, including the cost of shipping replacement products to its customers. The estimated cost of satisfying future warranty claims is accrued at the time the sale is recorded. In estimating future warranty obligations, the Company considers various factors, including its warranty policies and practices, the historical frequency of claims and the cost to replace or repair products under warranty.

The activity related to the Company’s warranty obligation for accrued warranty expense was as follows:

On August 2, 2022, the Company amended its credit agreement to, among other things, provide a $950.0 million multi-currency revolving credit facility and amend rates per annum at which borrowings in different denominations bear interest (the "Second Amended Credit Facility"). On August 2, 2022, proceeds from borrowings under the multi-currency revolving credit facility were used to, among other things, prepay in full the Company's then-outstanding term loans and refinance its outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility. Immediately prior to payment, the aggregate amounts outstanding related to the term loans and revolving credit facility were approximately $306.3 million and $72.6 million, respectively. The Second Amended Credit Facility matures on August 2, 2027, and as a result, the related borrowings have been classified as long-term debt, with the proceeds and repayments under the revolving credit facility presented on a gross basis in the consolidated statements of cash flows.

The credit agreement contains customary affirmative and restrictive covenants, including, among others, financial covenants based on the Company's leverage and interest coverage ratios. The credit agreement also includes customary events of default, the occurrence of which, following any applicable cure period, would permit the lenders to, among other things, declare the principal, accrued interest and other obligations to be immediately due and payable. As of September 30, 2023, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under its credit agreement.

As of September 30, 2023, there were $557.1 million in outstanding borrowings under the Company's multi-currency revolving credit facility with a weighted average interest rate of 6.44%. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had available borrowings under its multi-currency revolving credit facility of $385.1 million after giving effect to $7.8 million of outstanding letters of credit.

The Company has certain unsecured local credit facilities available through its subsidiaries. Amounts outstanding under other short-term borrowings are presented in short-term debt in the consolidated balance sheets with the proceeds and repayments presented on a gross basis in the consolidated statements of cash flows when the original maturity exceeds 90 days. There were $34.1 million and $40.3 million in outstanding borrowings under the Company's local credit facilities as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The weighted average interest rate applicable to the outstanding borrowings was 0.53% and 0.85% as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had available borrowings remaining under these local credit facilities of $27.5 million.

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were outstanding letters of credit related to agreements, including the Company's Second Amended Credit Facility, totaling $10.9 million and $10.0 million, respectively, of which $7.8 million and $7.3 million, respectively, was secured. These agreements provided a maximum commitment for letters of credit of $58.0 million as of September 30, 2023.

On October 3, 2023, Acushnet Company (the "Issuer"), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, completed the issuance and sale of $350.0 million in gross proceeds of the Issuer's 7.375% senior unsecured notes due 2028 (the “Notes”). The Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated October 3, 2023 (the “Indenture”), among the Issuer, U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee of the Notes, and the Company and certain subsidiaries of the Issuer as guarantors.

The proceeds from the Notes offering were used to repay $345.6 million of the outstanding borrowings under the Company's multi-currency revolving credit facility, as well as to pay fees and expenses related to the Notes offering. In connection with the Notes offering, the Company estimates fees and expenses totaling approximately $6.4 million will be included in long-term debt on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet and will be amortized to interest expense, net over the term of the Notes.

The Notes will bear interest at the rate of 7.375% per year, with interest payable semi-annually on April 15 and October 15 of each year, beginning on April 15, 2024.

The Notes will mature on October 15, 2028, unless earlier repurchased or redeemed in accordance with their terms, and as a result, will be classified as long-term debt. The Issuer may redeem all or part of the Notes at any time prior to October 15, 2025 at 100.0% of the principal amount redeemed plus a “make-whole” premium. The make-whole premium is the greater of (i) 1.0% of the then outstanding principal amount of the Notes being redeemed and (ii) the excess, if any, of: (1) the present value at such redemption date of the sum of (A) 103.688% of the principal amount of Notes being redeemed plus (B) all required interest payments due on the Notes through October 15, 2025 (excluding accrued but unpaid interest) and (2) the then outstanding principal amount of the Notes being redeemed.

Thereafter, the Issuer may redeem all or part of the Notes at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed) set forth below, together with any accrued and unpaid interest, if redeemed during the 12-month period beginning on October 15 of the years indicated below:

The Company principally uses derivative financial instruments to reduce the impact of foreign currency fluctuations and interest rate variability on the Company's results of operations. The principal derivative financial instruments the Company enters into are foreign exchange forward contracts and interest rate swaps. The Company does not enter into derivative financial instrument contracts for trading or speculative purposes.

Foreign exchange forward contracts are foreign exchange derivative instruments primarily used to reduce foreign currency risk related to transactions denominated in a currency other than functional currency. These instruments are designated as cash flow hedges. The periods of the foreign exchange forward contracts correspond to the periods of the hedged forecasted transactions, which do not exceed 24 months subsequent to the latest balance sheet date. The primary foreign exchange forward contracts pertain to the U.S. dollar, the Japanese yen, the British pound sterling, the Canadian dollar, the Korean won and the euro. The gross U.S. dollar equivalent notional amount outstanding of all foreign exchange forward contracts designated under hedge accounting as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $193.2 million and $242.4 million, respectively.

The Company also enters into foreign exchange forward contracts, which either do not qualify as hedging instruments or have not been designated as such, to reduce foreign currency transaction risk related to certain intercompany assets and liabilities denominated in a currency other than functional currency. These undesignated instruments are recorded at fair value as a derivative asset or liability with the corresponding change in fair value recognized in selling, general and administrative expenses. There were no outstanding foreign exchange forward contracts not designated under hedge accounting as of September 30, 2023. The gross U.S. dollar equivalent notional amount outstanding of all foreign exchange forward contracts not designated under hedge accounting as of December 31, 2022 was $4.0 million. Selling, general and administrative expenses during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, included gains of $0.1 million and $1.2 million, respectively, related to undesignated foreign exchange forward derivative instruments.

From time to time, the Company enters into interest rate swap contracts to reduce interest rate risk related to floating rate debt. Under the contracts, the Company pays fixed and receives variable rate interest, in effect converting a portion of its floating rate debt to fixed rate debt. Interest rate swap contracts are accounted for as cash flow hedges. As of September 30, 2023, the notional value of the Company's outstanding interest rate swap contracts was $100.0 million. As of December 31, 2022, there were no interest rate swap contracts outstanding.

The fair value of hedge instruments recognized on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets was as follows:

The hedge instrument gain recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax was as follows:

Gains and losses on derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax at the time the forecasted hedged transaction impacts the statements of operations or at the time the hedge is determined to be ineffective. Based on the current valuation, during the next 12 months the Company expects to reclassify a net gain of $7.7 million related to foreign exchange derivative instruments from accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, into cost of goods sold and a net gain of $1.0 million related to interest rate derivative instruments from accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, into interest expense, net. For further information related to amounts recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, see Note 12.

The hedge instrument gain recognized on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations was as follows:

_______________________________________________________________________________

(1)    Relates to net gains on foreign exchange forward contracts derived from previously designated cash flow hedges.

The Company enters into derivative contracts with major financial institutions with investment grade credit ratings and is exposed to credit losses in the event of non-performance by these financial institutions. This credit risk is generally limited to the unrealized gains in the derivative contracts. However, the Company monitors the credit quality of these financial institutions, as well as its own credit quality, and considers the risk of counterparty default to be minimal.

Certain assets and liabilities are carried at fair value under U.S. GAAP. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2023 were as follows:

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2022 were as follows:
