Here are the key takeaways from YETI’s conference call:
- YETI lowered its full-year adjusted sales growth outlook to approximately 6%, from 7%–8%, citing softer demand and a more deal-focused consumer. Management expects demand to remain pressured in Q4.
- Third-quarter adjusted sales rose 6% to approximately $518 million, while adjusted gross margin expanded 310 basis points to 59%. Adjusted operating income increased 35% and adjusted diluted EPS rose 49% to $0.91.
- International sales increased 19% and wholesale sales grew 19%, led by strength in Europe and Australia. DTC declined 3%, partly reflecting the Prime Day timing shift and comparisons with prior-year product restocking.
- Drinkware growth faced an estimated 500-basis-point drag from concentrated SKUs in Q3, with a roughly 600-basis-point impact expected for the full year; management expects this pressure to largely ease in 2027. YETI cited more than 50 active Project Upcycle initiatives and ongoing product innovation as longer-term growth and productivity opportunities.
