BRUNSWICK CORP 8-K

What Happened

• On January 29, 2026, Brunswick Corporation announced its fourth-quarter and full-year 2025 financial results via a news release that is included as Exhibit 99.1 to the Form 8-K. The filing states the company used and disclosed certain non-GAAP financial measures alongside GAAP results.

Key Details

• Date filed: January 29, 2026; news release is Exhibit 99.1 to the 8-K.
• Brunswick used non-GAAP measures such as: "diluted earnings per common share (EPS), as adjusted," "adjusted operating earnings," and "free cash flow."
• The filing explains what adjustments these non-GAAP measures exclude or include (e.g., restructuring, exit and impairment charges; purchase accounting amortization; acquisition, integration and IT-related costs; gain/loss on early extinguishment of debt; special tax items).
• Brunswick may report results on a constant currency basis to show underlying sales trends without foreign exchange translation effects.

Why It Matters

• Investors should review the attached news release (Exhibit 99.1) for the actual revenue, earnings and cash-flow figures for Q4 and full-year 2025. The company’s use of adjusted (non-GAAP) measures is intended to present operating performance excluding certain one-time or non-cash items; understanding those adjustments is important when comparing results across periods. The filing also notes Brunswick may not provide GAAP guidance for certain items that are hard to predict (e.g., restructuring or acquisition-related costs), so pay attention to both GAAP and non-GAAP disclosures to assess the company's performance.
