Johnson Outdoors closed FY24 with a disappointing final quarter that contributed to an operating loss of -$43.5m for the year. Net sales fell by ~11%, with pressure felt across all segments, and the associated unfavourable overhead absorption pushed the gross profit margin to a historical low of 33.9%. High inventory has been a downside risk for Johnson Outdoors for the last couple of years, and the company is now making positive progress with the conversion of excess inventory.
JOUT's fiscal fourth quarter performance was affected by challenging market conditions and heightened competitive pressures.
