Planned Separation of Outdoor Products and Sporting Products

approved preparations for the separation of our Outdoor Products and Sporting
Products reportable segments into two independent, publicly-traded companies. We
anticipate that the transaction will be in the form of a distribution to our
shareholders of 100% of the stock of Outdoor Products, which will become a new,
independent publicly traded company. The distribution is intended to be tax-free
to U.S. shareholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We currently expect
the transaction will be completed in calendar year 2023, subject to

                                       25

final approval by our Board of Directors, a Form 10 registration statement being
declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, our receipt
of the necessary regulatory approvals and satisfaction of other conditions.
There can be no assurance regarding the ultimate timing of the proposed
transaction or that the transaction will be completed.

We expect that the Planned Separation will create a number of benefits for Outdoor Products and Sporting Products, including:

•Enhanced strategic focus with supporting resources: Each company will have enhanced strategic focus with resources to support its specific operational needs and growth drivers.



•Tailored capital allocation priorities: Each company will have a tailored
capital allocation philosophy that is better suited to support its distinctive
business model and long-term goals.

•Strengthened ability to attract and retain top talent: Each company will benefit from enhanced ability to attract and retain top talent that is ideally suited to execute its strategic and operational objectives.

•Compelling value for shareholders: Each company will present a differentiated and compelling investment opportunity based on its particular business model.



•Expanded strategic opportunities: Improved focus will allow Outdoor Products to
further cement its reputation as the acquirer of choice through continued M&A in
the outdoor recreation products marketplace and enable Sporting Products to
secure attractive partnerships with other manufacturers.

Outlook

Sporting Products Industry

Sales of hunting and shooting-sports related products, including ammunition, are
heavily influenced by hunting and recreational shooting participation rates,
civil unrest and the political environment. We believe that long-term
participation trends support our expectation of continued increased demand for
hunting and shooting-sports related products. Participation rates have remained
strong, and we are seeing an expanded demographic of users. This broadened end
consumer base has resulted in a much larger total addressable market opportunity
for the industry and for our company. We believe we are well-positioned to
succeed and capitalize on this demand given our scale and global operating
platform, which we believe is particularly difficult to replicate in the highly
regulated and capital-intensive ammunition manufacturing sector.

                                       26

Outdoor Recreation Industry



We believe that long-term outdoor participation trends combined with a larger
base of participants supports our expectation of continued increased demand for
the innovative outdoor recreation-related products produced by our Outdoor
Products brands. Rising inflation and the absence of stimulus payments have had
an impact on the opening price points of certain categories. However, outdoor
participation trends and demand for premium price points remain strong across
our brand portfolio. We believe that demand for our Outdoor Products is being
temporarily impacted by higher inflation causing a contraction in disposable
income. Our Outdoor Products brands hold a strong competitive position in the
marketplace, and we intend to further differentiate our brands through focused
research and development and marketing investments including increased use of
social media and other digital marketing. Following significant investments in
our brands' e-commerce capabilities, both directly and through our E-Commerce
Center of Excellence, we believe our brands are well-positioned to benefit from
the ongoing shift in consumer shopping behavior to utilize online channels.

This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations ("MD&A") is intended to provide a reader of our financial statements
with a narrative from the perspective of our management on results of
operations, our financial condition, liquidity, and certain other factors that
may affect our future results. The following information should be read in
conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements included in
this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Three months ended

(1) We modified the structure of our reportable segments during the third
quarter of fiscal 2022. Accordingly, prior period amounts have been reclassified
to conform with the current period presentation. See Note 17, Operating Segment
Information, to the condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item
1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more details.

Sporting Products- The decrease in net sales was caused by lower levels of finished goods inventory available during the quarter due to high sales in the prior fiscal quarter, partially offset by improved pricing.



Outdoor Products- The increase in net sales was driven by businesses acquired in
the last twelve months and pricing, partially offset by declines in our organic
businesses, primarily caused by reduced purchasing from big box retailers.

Six months ended

Sporting Products- The increase in sales was driven by higher volume in nearly all categories and improved pricing.

Outdoor Products- The increase in sales was driven by businesses acquired in the last twelve months and pricing, partially offset by declines in our organic businesses, primarily caused by reduced purchasing from big box retailers.

For the three and six months ended September 25, 2022, the increase in interest
expense is due to a higher average interest rate and debt balance, along with
increased debt issuance cost associated with our debt refinancing.

                                                                        Three months ended                                                                                     Six months ended

See Note 15, Income Taxes, to the condensed consolidated financial statements in
Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more details regarding
income taxes.

The decrease in the effective rate for both the three and six months ended
September 25, 2022 in relation to the comparable prior year periods is primarily
driven by the non-taxable contingent consideration income in the current year
and the impact of beneficial state tax law changes.

Financial condition



Cash increased to $66,065 at September 25, 2022 compared to $22,584 at March 31,
2022, primarily due to cash provided by operating activities and advances on the
2022 ABL Revolving Credit Facility and 2022 Term Loan, partially offset by
payments for acquisitions completed in the second quarter of fiscal year 2022.

Operating Activities



Cash provided by operating activities increased by $88,222 in the six months
ended September 25, 2022 compared to the prior year period. Timing of payments
by customers, payments for inventory, and post-acquisition compensation payments
as compared to the prior year period all contributed to the increase. These
increases were partially offset by timing of payments to vendors, and timing of
income tax payments.

Investing Activities

Cash used for investing activities increased by $751,165 for the six months ended September 25, 2022 compared to the prior-year period. The change was primarily driven by the acquisition of businesses during the second quarter of fiscal year 2023.



Financing Activities

Cash provided by financing activities increased by $685,455 for the six months
ended September 25, 2022 compared to the prior year period. The increase relates
to proceeds from the 2022 ABL Revolving Credit Facility and 2022 Term Loan,
partially offset by increased payments on our credit facilities and a reduction
in the repurchase of treasury shares as compared to the prior year period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources



In addition to our normal operating cash requirements, our principal future cash
requirements will be to fund capital expenditures, debt repayments, employee
benefit obligations, share repurchases, and any strategic acquisitions. Our
short-term cash requirements for operations are expected to consist mainly of
capital expenditures to maintain production facilities and working capital
requirements. Our debt service requirements over the next two years consist of
required interest payments due under our 4.5% Notes, 2022 Term Loan and 2022 ABL
Revolving Credit Facility, and principal pre-payments due under the 2022 Term
Loan. Each of the 2022 ABL Revolving Credit Facility and the 2022 Term Loan
includes a covenant that prohibits the spin-off of any line of business of Vista
Outdoor or certain of its subsidiaries, including the expected separation of our
Outdoor Products segment (the "Planned Separation"), and amendment of each such
covenant will require the consent of all lenders under the applicable credit
facility in order to permit the Planned Separation. We anticipate that each of
the 2022 ABL Revolving Credit Facility and the 2022 Term Loan will be repaid or
refinanced in full prior to or upon the consummation of the Planned Separation.

Based on our current financial condition, management believes that our cash
position, combined with anticipated generation of cash flows and the
availability of funding, if needed, under our 2022 ABL Revolving Credit
Facility, access to debt and equity markets, as well as other potential sources
of funding including additional bank financing, will be adequate to fund future
growth to service our currently anticipated long-term debt and pension
obligations, make capital expenditures, and fund the 2022 Share Repurchase
Program over the next 12 months. As of September 25, 2022, based on the
borrowing base less outstanding borrowings of $470,000, outstanding letters of
credit of $15,445, and the minimum required borrowing base of $60,000, the
amount available under the 2022 ABL Revolving Credit Facility was $54,555. Our
total debt as a percentage of total capitalization (total debt and stockholders'
equity) was 49.4% as of September 25, 2022.

There can be no assurance that the cost or availability of future borrowings, if
any, will not be materially impacted by capital market conditions, including any
disruptions to capital markets caused by COVID-19 pandemic (including the
emergence and spread of vaccine resistant coronavirus variants), the war in
Ukraine and imposition of sanctions on Russia, or our future financial condition
and performance. Furthermore, because our 2022 ABL Revolving Credit Facility is
secured in large part by receivables from our customers, a sustained
deterioration in general economic conditions, including as a result of the
COVID-19 pandemic (including the emergence and spread of vaccine resistant
coronavirus variants) or the war in Ukraine and imposition of sanctions on
Russia, that adversely affects the creditworthiness of our customers could have
a negative effect on our future available liquidity under the 2022 ABL Revolving
Credit Facility

Additional information about our long-term debt is presented in Note 13, Long-term Debt, to the condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more details.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments



We leases certain warehouse, distribution and office facilities, vehicles and
office equipment under operating leases. As of September 25, 2022, current and
long-term operating lease liabilities of $15,980 and $96,663, respectively, were
recorded in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. For further
discussion on minimum lease payment obligations, see Note 3, Leases, to the
condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q for more details.

Except as discussed in Note 13, Long-term Debt, to the condensed consolidated
financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q,
and under Liquidity and Capital Resources above, there have been no material
changes with respect to the contractual obligations and commitments or
off-balance sheet arrangements described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for
fiscal year 2022.

Contingencies

Litigation

From time-to-time, we are subject to various legal proceedings, including
lawsuits, which arise out of and are incidental to, the conduct of our business.
We do not consider any of such proceedings that are currently pending,
individually or in the aggregate, to be material to our business or likely to
result in a material adverse effect on our operating results, financial
condition, or cash flows.

Environmental Liabilities



Our operations and ownership or use of real property are subject to a number of
federal, state, and local environmental laws and regulations, as well as
applicable foreign laws and regulations, including those governing the discharge
of hazardous materials, remediation of contaminated sites, and restoration of
damage to the environment. We are obligated to conduct investigations and/or
remediation activities at certain sites that we own or operate or formerly owned
or operated.

Certain of our former subsidiaries have been identified as potentially
responsible parties ("PRPs"), along with other parties, in regulatory agency
actions associated with hazardous waste sites. As a PRP, those former
subsidiaries may be required to pay a share of the costs of the investigation
and clean-up of these sites. In that event, we would be obligated to indemnify
those subsidiaries for those costs. While uncertainties exist with respect to
the amounts and timing of the ultimate environmental liabilities, based on
currently available information, we do not currently expect that these potential
liabilities, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse
effect on our operating results, financial condition, or cash flows.

We could incur substantial additional costs, including cleanup costs, resource
restoration, fines, and penalties or third-party property damage or personal
injury claims, as a result of violations or liabilities under environmental laws
or non-compliance with environmental permits. While environmental laws and
regulations have not had a material adverse effect on our operating results,
financial condition, or cash flows in the past, and we have environmental
management programs in place to mitigate these risks, it is difficult to predict
whether they will have a material impact in the future.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates



There have been no changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates
from the information provided in Part II, Item 7, "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," included in our
Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2022.

Dependence on Key Customers; Concentration of Credit

No single customer contributed 10% or more of our sales in the six months ended September 25, 2022 and September 26, 2021.


                                       30

If a key customer fails to meet payment obligations, our operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected.

Inflation and Commodity Price Risk



We are exposed to inflationary factors such as increases in labor, supplier,
logistics and overhead costs that may adversely affect our operating results.
Although we do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our
financial position or results of operations to date, a high rate of inflation in
the future may have an adverse effect on our ability to maintain current levels
of gross margin and operating expenses, if the selling prices of our products
are not able to offset these increased costs. Additionally, inflation may
potentially impact demand as consumers reduce discretionary spending. We have
been impacted by changes in the prices of raw materials used in production as
well as changes in oil and energy costs. In particular, the prices of commodity
metals, such as copper, zinc, and lead continue to be volatile. These prices
generally impact our Sporting Products Segment. See Note 5, Derivative Financial
Instruments, to the condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item
1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more details.

We have a strategic sourcing, pricing and hedging strategy to mitigate risk from
commodity price fluctuation. We will continue to evaluate the need for future
price changes in light of these trends, our competitive landscape, and our
financial results. If our sourcing and pricing strategy is unable to offset
impacts of the commodity price fluctuations, our future results from operations
and cash flows would be materially impacted.
