While Brunswick faced challenges from tariffs and a decline in value boat sales, the company experienced significant free cash flow generation, growth in the Propulsion business, and positive momentum in retail sales in July. Additionally, strategic expansions and recognitions highlight operational strengths amidst a challenging environment.

Company Guidance

During the second quarter of 2025 earnings call, Brunswick Corporation reported sales of $1.4 billion and earnings per share of $1.16, both exceeding the company's guidance. The company's strong performance was attributed to robust operational execution, cost control, and aftermarket resilience, despite challenging macroeconomic conditions and adverse weather impacting boat unit retail sales in the value category. Notably, Brunswick generated a record $288 million in free cash flow for the quarter, contributing to a first-half free cash flow of $244 million, a $279 million improvement from the previous year. The Propulsion segment saw a 7% year-over-year sales increase, with Mercury outboard engines gaining over 300 basis points of U.S. retail share in engines over 300 horsepower. The Engine Parts and Accessories business slightly grew sales year-over-year, while Navico Group experienced a 2.5% revenue decline compared to the first half of 2024. Brunswick also highlighted successful product launches and strategic initiatives, including manufacturing capacity optimization and dealer inventory management, to improve profitability and ensure capital strategy alignment.

Record Free Cash Flow

Brunswick generated $288 million of free cash flow in the second quarter, the highest for any second quarter in company history, contributing to a record first half free cash flow of $244 million, a $279 million improvement versus first half 2024.

Propulsion Business Growth

The Propulsion business reported a 7% increase in sales primarily due to strong orders from U.S. OEMs, with Mercury gaining over 300 basis points of U.S. retail share in outboard engines over 300 horsepower in the quarter.

Positive Momentum in July

July retail for essentially all of Brunswick's businesses has accelerated and is trending positive versus July 2024, giving positive momentum for the second half of the year.

Expansion of Freedom Boat Club

Freedom Boat Club launched its first club in the Middle East, located in Dubai, with plans for additional expansion, reinforcing its position as the world's largest and only global boat club.

Recognition and Awards

Brunswick received significant recognition, including being named by TIME Magazine as one of America's Best Mid-Size Companies for the second year in a row, and earning six Boating Industry magazine Top Product Awards.
