- The COVID-19 pandemic has had, and is expected to continue to have, a material and adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.
- Unfavorable economic conditions, including as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, inflation or otherwise, could have a negative impact on consumer discretionary spending and therefore negatively impact the Company’s results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
- A severe or prolonged economic downturn could adversely affect the Company's customers’ financial condition, their levels of business activity and their ability to pay trade obligations.
- The Company faces intense competition in each of its markets, and if it is unable to compete effectively, it could have a material adverse effect on its business, results of operations, financial condition and growth prospects.
- The Company’s expanding apparel business, and operation of related retail locations, is subject to various risks and uncertainties, and the Company’s growth and strategic plans may not be fully realized.
- Topgolf’s growth strategy depends in part on its and its franchisees’ ability to open new venues in existing and new markets.
- If the Company is unable to successfully manage the frequent introduction of new products that satisfy changing consumer preferences, it could significantly and adversely impact its financial performance and prospects for future growth.
- The Company’s soft goods and apparel and Topgolf venues businesses face risks associated with changed consumer tastes and preferences and fashion trends.
- Consolidation of retailers or concentration of retail market share among a few retailers may increase and concentrate the Company’s credit risk, putting pressure on its margins and its ability to sell products.
- The Company’s business depends on strong brands and related reputations, and if the Company is not able to maintain and enhance the Company’s brands or preserve its strong reputation, including as a result of actions taken by franchisees and licensees, its sales may be adversely affected.

- The Company’s expanding international operations could be harmed if it fails to successfully transition its business processes on a global scale.

- The costs and availability of finished products, product components and raw materials could affect the Company’s operating results.

- The Company may be subject to product warranty claims that require the replacement or repair of products sold. Such warranty claims could adversely affect the Company’s results of operations and relationships with its customers.
- The Company’s growth initiatives require significant capital investments and there can be no assurance that the Company will realize a positive return on these investments.

- The Company may need to raise additional funds from time to time through public or private debt or equity financings in order to execute its growth strategy.
- Increases in interest rates could increase the cost of servicing the Company’s indebtedness and have an adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations and cash flows.

- The Company’s insurance policies may not provide adequate levels of coverage against all claims and the Company may incur losses that are not covered by its insurance.
- If the Company’s estimates or judgments relating to its critical accounting policies prove to be incorrect, its financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
- Certain of the Company’s stockholders, if they choose to act together, have the ability to significantly control or influence all matters submitted to stockholders for approval
Management Discussion
- The Company’s net revenues in the second quarter of 2022 increased $202.1 million (or 22.1%) to $1,115.7 million compared to $913.6 million in the second quarter of 2021. This increase reflects increases in all three operating segments and major geographic regions, as well as the unfavorable impact of changes in foreign currency of $38.6 million. Net revenues by operating segment and major geographic region are presented below (dollars in millions):
- •The 24.5% increase in net revenues in the United States was primarily driven by growth in the Topgolf business resulting from the opening of new venues, strong walk-in traffic and an increase in event bookings, combined with strong demand for TravisMathew apparel and golf equipment products.
- •The 16.5% increase in Europe was primarily driven by strong sales of Jack Wolfskin apparel, partially offset by the unfavorable impact of changes in foreign currency.
