YETI Holdings, Inc.

Previous wording

Most of our imported products are subject to tariffs, duties, indirect taxes, quotas and non-tariff trade barriers, any of which may limit the quantity of products that we may import into the United States and other countries or may impact the cost of such products. To maximize opportunities, we rely on free trade agreements and other supply chain initiatives, and, as a result, we are subject to government regulations and restrictions with respect to our cross-border activity. Additionally, we are subject to government regulations relating to importation activities, including related to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (“CBP”) withhold release orders. The imposition of taxes, duties and quotas, the withdrawal from or the material modification to trade agreements, retaliatory actions from other countries, and/or if CBP detains shipments of our goods pursuant to a withhold release order could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Previous wording

During 2025, the United States has implemented and then subsequently modified tariffs, and may continue increasing or modifying tariffs, trade restrictions, and trade agreements between the United States and other countries. The levels of tariffs in effect during the first quarter of 2025 did not have a material impact on our business. However, the current levels of tariffs on imports from China significantly raise the cost of certain of our products, particularly in our Drinkware category. As such, we expect current tariff rates to have a material negative impact on our gross margins and results of operations for 2025.

Current wording

During 2025, the United States implemented and then subsequently modified tariffs, and may continue modifying tariffs, trade restrictions, and trade agreements between the United States and other countries. Tariffs raise the cost to import our products. As such, we expect tariffs to have a negative impact on our gross margins and results of operations for 2025. However, the ultimate degree of such negative impact is uncertain as it depends on the level of tariffs in effect on each particular country, as well as the quantity and timing of our purchases from each affected country. For example, if tariffs on imports from China return to April 2025 levels, we would expect a further material negative impact on our gross margins and results of operations in 2025 due to the fact that a large percentage of our Drinkware manufacturing capacity will not be outside of China until the end of 2025.

Previous wording

We are taking or considering taking measures to alleviate such impact, but there can be no assurance that such measures will mitigate the potential negative impact of current or potential tariffs on our business or results of operations. Importantly, we have accelerated our strategy to diversify our Drinkware manufacturing to additional countries beyond China and now expect a large majority of such manufacturing capacity to be outside of China by the end of 2025. However, a significant percentage of our Drinkware manufacturing capacity currently remains in China. The other strategic options to further mitigate tariff impacts include management of operating expenses, working capital and cash, negotiations with suppliers, evaluating pricing strategies, leveraging tariff exemptions where possible, and pursuing other supply chain optimization activities. While we pursue these mitigation strategies, we may not be able to, or in some cases we may intend to, strategically decrease the amount of certain products that we source from China. As a result, we expect inventory constraints that will likely adversely impact sales in 2025.

During 2025, we continue to diversify our supply chain out of China. The disruption caused by this transition is impacting our ability to source certain products. As a result, we continue to expect that inventory constraints will adversely impact sales in 2025.

Previous wording

At current levels, tariffs have potential tangential economic impacts that may also harm our business. If businesses are forced to raise their prices in response to tariffs or other factors, higher prices for consumers may lead to a decrease in disposable consumer income and reduced consumer demand for many types of products, including ours. Demand for our products could also be harmed if the indirect impacts of tariffs cause a recession and there is a decrease in consumer discretionary spending.
