COLUMBIA SPORTSWEAR CO

In accordance with rules adopted by the SEC pursuant to Section 953(a) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, we are providing the following disclosure regarding executive compensation for our principal executive officer (“PEO”) and non-PEO named executive officers (“Non-PEO NEOs”) for the fiscal years listed below. The table reflects “compensation actually paid” (“CAP”) to our PEO and the average CAP to our Non-PEO NEOs, computed in accordance with Item 402(v) of SEC Regulation S-K. The dollar amounts reported do not reflect the actual amount of compensation earned by or paid to these officers during the applicable year.

Pay Versus Performance Table (“PVP Table”)

(1)Reflects compensation amounts reported in the “Summary Compensation Table” (“SCT”) for our PEO, Timothy P. Boyle for the respective years shown.

(2)For 2024, there were no adjustments made in the PVP Table to arrive at CAP for our PEO.

(3)For 2024, the following table sets forth the adjustments made in the PVP Table to arrive at CAP for our Non-PEO NEOs:

Non-PEO NEO Equity Valuations: All valuations of equity awards were estimated using assumptions and methodologies substantially consistent with those used at grant. These methodologies are consistent with the principles in FASB ASC 718 and are described further in our Annual Reports on Form 10-K. Stock option fair values are calculated based on the Black-Scholes option-pricing model as of each measurement date using updated stock price and other model inputs (i.e., expected term, volatility, dividend yield, risk-free rate) as of the measurement date. Time-based RSU fair values are calculated using the stock price as of each measurement date, reduced by the present value of dividends not received during the vesting period. PRSU fair values are calculated using the stock price as of each measurement date, reduced by the present value of dividends not received during the vesting period and reflect the probable outcome of the performance vesting conditions and Relative TSR PRSU fair value is calculated pursuant to a Monte Carlo simulation.

(4)Total Shareholder Return assumes an initial investment of $100 on December 31, 2019, including the reinvestment of dividends.

(5)The peer group reflected for each fiscal year is the Russell 1000 Clothing and Accessories Index, which is used in the performance graph included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2024.

(6)The dollar amounts reported represent the amount of net income (in millions) reflected in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the applicable year.
