JOHNSON OUTDOORS INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)

1    BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein are unaudited. In the opinion of management, these statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring items) necessary to present fairly the financial position of Johnson Outdoors Inc. and subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) as of June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022, and their results of operations for the three and nine month periods then ended and cash flows for the nine month periods then ended. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022 which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 9, 2022.

Due to seasonal variations and other factors, some of which are described herein, the results of operations for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the Company’s full 2023 fiscal year.  The current economic and business environment, and end consumer purchasing actions stemming therefrom, is beyond our control and remains highly uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time.

All monetary amounts, other than share and per share amounts, are stated in thousands.

2    ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

Accounts receivable are stated net of allowances for doubtful accounts of $902, $1,037 and $1,208 as of June 30, 2023, September 30, 2022 and July 1, 2022, respectively. The determination of the allowance for doubtful accounts is based on a combination of factors. In circumstances where specific collection concerns about a receivable exist, a reserve is established to value the affected account receivable at an amount the Company believes will be collected. For all other customers, the Company recognizes allowances for doubtful accounts based on historical experience of bad debts as a percent of accounts receivable outstanding for each business segment. Uncollectible accounts are written off against the allowance for doubtful accounts after collection efforts have been exhausted. The Company typically does not require collateral on its accounts receivable.

3    EARNINGS PER SHARE (“EPS”)

Net income or loss per share of Class A common stock and Class B common stock is computed using the two-class method.  Grants of restricted stock which receive non-forfeitable dividends are classified as participating securities and are required to be included as part of the basic weighted average share calculation under the two-class method.

Holders of Class A common stock are entitled to cash dividends equal to 110% of all dividends declared and paid on each share of Class B common stock. The Company grants shares of unvested restricted stock in the form of Class A shares, which carry the same distribution rights as the Class A common stock described above.  As such, the undistributed earnings for each period are allocated to each class of common stock based on the proportionate share of the amount of cash dividends that each such class is entitled to receive.
 
Basic EPS

Basic net income or loss per share is computed by dividing net income or loss allocated to Class A common stock and Class B common stock by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock outstanding, respectively.  In periods with cumulative year to date net income and undistributed income, the undistributed income for each period is allocated to each class of common stock based on the proportionate share of the amount of cash dividends that each such class is entitled to receive.  In periods where there is a cumulative year to date net loss or no undistributed income because distributions through dividends exceed net income, Class B shares are treated as anti-dilutive and, therefore, net losses are allocated equally on a per share basis among all participating securities.

For the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022, basic income per share for the Class A and Class B shares has been presented using the two class method and reflects the allocation of undistributed income described above. 

Diluted EPS
- 7 -


JOHNSON OUTDOORS INC.

Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing allocated net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, adjusted for the effect of dilutive stock options, restricted stock units (“stock units” or “units”) and non-vested restricted stock.  Anti-dilutive stock options, units and non-vested stock are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS.  The computation of diluted net income per share of Class A common stock assumes that Class B common stock is converted into Class A common stock.  Therefore, diluted net income per share is the same for both Class A and Class B common shares.  In periods where the Company reports a net loss, the effect of anti-dilutive stock options and units is excluded and diluted loss per share is equal to basic loss per share for both classes of stock.

For the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022, diluted net income per share reflects the effect of dilutive stock units and assumes the conversion of Class B common stock into Class A common stock. 

Shares of non-vested stock that could potentially dilute earnings per share in the future which were not included in the fully diluted computation because they would have been anti-dilutive totaled 64,654 and 38,353 for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022, respectively, and 64,258 and 38,477 for the nine months ended June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022, respectively. Stock units that could potentially dilute earnings per share in the future and which were not included in the fully diluted computation because they would have been anti-dilutive were 46,501 and 37,152 for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022, respectively, and 51,813 and 35,413 for the nine months ended June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022, respectively.

Dividends per share

Dividends per share for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022 were as follows:

 Three Months EndedNine months ended
June 30, 2023July 1, 2022June 30, 2023July 1, 2022
Dividends declared per common share: 
Class A$0.31 $0.30 $0.93 $0.90 
Class B$0.28 $0.27 $0.85 $0.82 


4    STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION AND STOCK OWNERSHIP PLANS

The Company’s current stock ownership plans allow for issuance of stock options to acquire shares of Class A common stock by key executives and non-employee directors. Current plans also allow for issuance of shares of restricted stock, restricted stock units or stock appreciation rights in lieu of stock options.

Under the Company’s 2023 Non-Employee Director Stock Ownership Plan and the 2020 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the only plans where shares currently remain available for future equity incentive awards) there were a total of 468,066 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock available for future grant to non-employee directors and key executives at June 30, 2023. Share awards previously made under the Company's 2012 Non-Employee Director Stock Ownership Plan and its 2010 Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan, which no longer allow for additional share grants, also remain outstanding.
 
Non-vested Stock

All shares of non-vested restricted stock awarded by the Company have been granted in the form of shares of Class A common stock at their fair market value on the date of grant and vest within one year from the date of grant for stock granted to directors and four years from the date of grant for stock granted to officers and employees.  The fair value at date of grant is based on the number of shares granted and the average of the Company’s high and low Class A common stock price on the date of grant or, if the Company’s Class A shares did not trade on the date of grant, the average of the Company’s high and low Class A common stock price on the last preceding date on which the Company’s Class A shares traded.

JOHNSON OUTDOORS INC.
A summary of non-vested stock activity for the nine months ended June 30, 2023 related to the Company’s stock ownership plans is as follows:
 SharesWeighted Average

Forfeitures(10,632)71.41 
Non-vested stock at June 30, 202361,242 66.48 
 
Non-vested stock grantees may elect to reimburse the Company for withholding taxes due as a result of the vesting of shares by tendering a portion of the vested shares back to the Company.  Shares tendered back to the Company were 2,289 and 1,778 during the nine month periods ended June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022, respectively.

Stock compensation expense, net of forfeitures, related to non-vested stock was $172 and $335 for the three month periods ended June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022, respectively, and $1,117 and $896 for the nine month periods ended June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022, respectively. Unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock as of June 30, 2023 was $2,395, which amount will be amortized to expense through December 2026 or adjusted for changes in future estimated or actual forfeitures.

The fair value of restricted stock vested during the nine month periods ended June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022 was $1,029 and $1,002, respectively.

Restricted Stock Units

All restricted stock units (RSUs) awarded by the Company have been granted in the form of units payable in shares of Class A common stock upon vesting. The units are valued at the fair market value of a share of Class A common stock on the date of grant and vest within one year from the date of grant for RSUs granted to directors, subject to satisfaction of applicable performance criteria, and three years from the date of grant for RSUs granted to employees.  The fair value at the date of grant is based on the number of units granted and the average of the Company’s high and low Class A common stock trading price on the date of grant or, if the Company’s Class A shares did not trade on the date of grant, the average of the Company’s high and low Class A common stock trading price on the last preceding date on which the Company’s Class A shares traded.

A summary of RSU activity for the nine months ended June 30, 2023 follows:

Unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested RSUs as of June 30, 2023 was $1,622, which amount will be amortized to expense through September 2025 or adjusted for changes in future estimated or actual forfeitures.

RSU grantees may elect to reimburse the Company for withholding taxes due as a result of the vesting of units and issuance of unrestricted shares of Class A common stock by tendering a portion of such unrestricted shares back to the Company. Shares tendered back to the Company for this purpose were 5,324 and 3,311 during the nine month periods ended June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022, respectively.

JOHNSON OUTDOORS INC.

The fair value of restricted stock units recognized as a tax deduction during the nine month periods ended June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022 was $2,555 and $3,240, respectively.

Compensation expense related to units earned by employees (as opposed to grants to outside directors) is based upon the attainment of certain Company financial goals related to cumulative net sales and cumulative operating profit over a three-year performance period. Awards are only paid if at least 80% of the target levels are met and maximum payouts are made if 120% or more of target levels are achieved. The payouts for achievement at the threshold levels of performance are equal to 50% of the target award amount. The payouts for achievement at maximum levels of performance are equal to 150% of the target award amount. To the extent earned, awards are issued in shares of Company Class A common stock after the end of the three-year performance period.

Employees’ Stock Purchase Plan

The Company’s shareholders have adopted the Johnson Outdoors Inc. 2009 Employees’ Stock Purchase Plan, which was most recently amended on March 2, 2017, and which provides for the issuance of shares of Class A common stock at a purchase price of not less than 85% of the fair market value of such shares on the date of grant or on the date of purchase, whichever is lower.

During the three month period ended June 30, 2023, the Company issued 5,401 shares of Class A common stock and recognized $18 of expense in connection with the Employees' Stock Purchase Plan. During the nine month period ended June 30, 2023, the Company issued 5,401 shares of Class A common stock and recognized $72 of expense in connection with the Plan. During the three month period ended July 1, 2022, the Company issued 5,112 shares of Class A common stock and recognized $90 of expense in connection with the Plan. During the nine month period ended July 1, 2022, the Company issued 5,112 shares of Class A common stock and recognized $289 of expense in connection with the Plan.

5    LEASES

The Company leases certain facilities and machinery and equipment under long-term, non-cancelable operating leases. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had approximately 200 leases, with remaining terms ranging from less than one year to 16 years. Some of the leases contain variable payment terms, such as payments based on fluctuations in the Consumer Price Index (CPI). Some leases also contain options to extend or terminate the lease. To the extent the Company is reasonably certain to exercise these options, they have been considered in the calculation of the right-of-use ("ROU") assets and lease liabilities. Under current lease agreements, there are no residual value guarantees or restrictive lease covenants. In calculating the ROU assets and lease liabilities, several assumptions and judgments were made by the Company, including whether a contract is or contains a lease under the applicable definition, and the determination of the discount rate, which is assumed to be the incremental borrowing rate. The incremental borrowing rate is derived from information available to the Company at the lease commencement date based on lease length and location.

June 30, 2023July 1, 2022June 30, 2023July 1, 2022

Income tax expense5,021 5,162 12,395 12,205 
Effective income tax rate25.3 %26.8 %25.9 %25.9 %
 
The decrease in the effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended July 1, 2022 is due to the favorable impact from the change in estimate after filing prior year tax returns. The effective tax rate between the nine month periods ended June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022 was relatively consistent with no primary factors impacting the rate.

The impact of the Company’s operations in jurisdictions where a valuation allowance is assessed is removed from the overall effective tax rate methodology and recorded directly based on year to date results for the year for which no tax expense or benefit can be recognized.  The significant tax jurisdictions that have a valuation allowance for the periods ended June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022 were:
 
June 30, 2023July 1, 2022
IndonesiaIndonesia
SwitzerlandSwitzerland

The Company regularly assesses the adequacy of its provisions for income tax contingencies in accordance with the applicable authoritative guidance on accounting for income taxes.  As a result, the Company may adjust the reserves for unrecognized tax benefits due to the impact of changes in its assumptions or as a result of new facts and developments, such as changes to interpretations of relevant tax law, assessments from taxing authorities, settlements with taxing authorities and lapses of statutes of limitation.  The Company’s 2023 fiscal year tax expense is anticipated to be unchanged related to uncertain income tax positions.

In accordance with its accounting policy, the Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized benefits as a component of income tax expense. 
 
7    INVENTORIES

The Company values inventory at the lower of cost (determined using the first-in first-out method) or net realizable value. Inventories at the end of the respective periods consisted of the following:

8    GOODWILL

The changes in goodwill during the nine months ended June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022 were as follows:

 June 30, 2023July 1, 2022
Balance at beginning of period$11,160 $11,221 
Amount attributable to movements in foreign currency rates26 (12)

- 12 -


JOHNSON OUTDOORS INC.

The Company evaluates the carrying value of goodwill for a reporting unit on an annual basis or more frequently when events and circumstances warrant such an evaluation.  In conducting this analysis, the Company uses the income approach to compare the reporting unit's carrying value to its indicated fair value. Fair value is determined primarily by using a discounted cash flow methodology that requires considerable management judgment and long-term assumptions and is considered a Level 3 (unobservable) fair value determination in the fair value hierarchy (see Note 13) below.

9    WARRANTIES
 
The Company provides warranties on certain of its products as they are sold. The following table summarizes the Company’s warranty activity for the nine months ended June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022.

10    CONTINGENCIES

The Company is subject to various legal actions and proceedings in the normal course of business, including those related to commercial disputes, product liability, intellectual property and regulatory matters. The Company is insured against loss for certain of these matters. Although litigation is subject to many uncertainties and the ultimate exposure with respect to these matters cannot be ascertained, management does not believe the final outcome of any pending litigation will have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations, liquidity or cash flows of the Company.

11    INDEBTEDNESS

The Company had no debt outstanding at June 30, 2023, September 30, 2022, or July 1, 2022.

Revolver
The Company and certain of its subsidiaries have entered into an unsecured credit facility with PNC Bank National Association and Associated Bank, N.A. ("the Lending Group").  This credit facility consists of a $75 million Revolving Credit Facility among the Company, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries, PNC Bank National Association, as lender and as administrative agent, and the other lender named therein (as amended, the “Credit Agreement” or “Revolver”). The Revolver provides for borrowing of up to an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $75,000 with a $50,000 accordion feature that gives the Company the option to increase the maximum financing availability (i.e., an aggregate borrowing amount of $125,000) subject to the conditions of the Credit Agreement and subject to the approval of the lenders. On July 15, 2021, the Company entered into a First Amendment to this credit facility that extended its expiration date from November 15, 2022, to July 15, 2026. Other key provisions of the credit facility remained as outlined herein and the description herein is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the original Debt Agreement (a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 99.1 to the current report on Form 8-K dated and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 20, 2017) and the Amendment, (a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the current report on Form 8-K dated and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 16, 2021).
 
The interest rate on the Revolver is based on LIBOR plus an applicable margin. Beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, upon adoption of topic 848, the interest rate will be based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"). The applicable margin ranges from 1.00% to 1.75% and is dependent on the Company’s leverage ratio for the trailing twelve month period.  The interest rates on the Revolver at both June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022 were approximately 6.2% and 2.8%, respectively.

The Credit Agreement restricts the Company's ability to incur additional debt, includes maximum leverage ratio and minimum interest coverage ratio covenants and is unsecured.

JOHNSON OUTDOORS INC.
Other Borrowings
The Company had no unsecured revolving credit facilities at its foreign subsidiaries as of June 30, 2023 or July 1, 2022.  The Company utilizes letters of credit primarily as security for the payment of future claims under its workers’ compensation insurance, which totaled approximately $78 and $173 as of June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022, respectively.


12    DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

The following disclosures describe the Company’s objectives in using derivative instruments, the business purpose or context for using derivative instruments, and how the Company believes the use of derivative instruments helps achieve the stated objectives.  In addition, the following disclosures describe the effects of the Company’s use of derivative instruments and hedging activities on its financial statements.
 
Foreign Exchange Risk
The Company has significant foreign operations, for which the functional currencies are denominated primarily in euros, Swiss francs, Hong Kong dollars and Canadian dollars. As the values of the currencies of the foreign countries in which the Company has operations increase or decrease relative to the U.S. dollar, the sales, expenses, profits, losses, assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign operations, as reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements, increase or decrease, accordingly.  Approximately 13% of the Company’s revenues for the nine month period ended June 30, 2023 were denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Approximately 5% were denominated in euros, approximately 6% were denominated in Canadian dollars and approximately 1% were denominated in Hong Kong dollars, with the remaining 1% of revenues denominated in various other foreign currencies. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates can cause the Company to experience unexpected financial losses or cash flow needs.

The Company may mitigate a portion of the fluctuations in certain foreign currencies through the use of foreign currency forward contracts.  Foreign currency forward contracts enable the Company to lock in the foreign currency exchange rate to be paid or received for a fixed amount of currency at a specified date in the future. The Company may use such foreign currency forward contracts to mitigate the risk associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates on financial instruments and known commitments, including commitments for inventory purchases, denominated in foreign currencies. As of June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022, the Company held no foreign currency forward contracts.

13    FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. A fair value hierarchy has been established based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable.

Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. These are typically obtained from real-time quotes for transactions in active exchange markets involving identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, which are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These are typically obtained from readily-available pricing sources for comparable instruments.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs, where there is little or no market activity for the asset or liability. These inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions of the data that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, based on the best information available in the circumstances.

The carrying amounts of cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximated their fair values at June 30, 2023, September 30, 2022 and July 1, 2022 due to the short term maturities of these instruments. When indicators of impairment are present, the Company may be required to value certain long-lived assets such as property, plant, and equipment, and other intangibles at their fair value.

Valuation Techniques

Rabbi Trust Assets
- 14 -


JOHNSON OUTDOORS INC.
Rabbi trust assets are classified as trading securities and are comprised of marketable debt and equity securities that are marked to fair value based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets.  The rabbi trust assets are used to fund amounts the Company owes to certain officers and other employees under the Company’s non-qualified deferred compensation plan.  These assets are included in "Other assets" in the accompanying Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, and the mark to market adjustments on the assets are recorded in “Other income, net” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The offsetting deferred compensation liability is also reported at fair value as "Deferred compensation liability" in the Company's accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Changes in the liability are recorded in "Administrative management, finance and information systems" expense in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

There were no assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis in periods subsequent to their initial recognition for either of the nine month periods ended June 30, 2023 or July 1, 2022.

14    CASH, CASH EQUIVALENTS, AND MARKETABLE SECURITIES

The Company considers all short-term investments in interest bearing accounts and all securities and other instruments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are stated at cost which approximates market value.
During the third quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company invested in marketable securities. The Company has classified all marketable securities as available-for-sale which requires the securities to be reported at estimated fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity.

At June 30, 2023, cost for marketable securities was determined using the specific identification method. A summary of the amortized costs and fair values of the Company’s marketable securities at the end of the period presented is shown in the following table. All of the Company’s marketable securities are classified as Level 2, as defined by
- 15 -


JOHNSON OUTDOORS INC.
FASB ASC 820, with fair values determined using significant other observable inputs, which include quoted prices in markets that are not active, quoted prices of similar securities, recently executed transactions, broker quotations, and other inputs that are observable.

The following table summarizes the Company’s marketable securities measured at fair value as of June 30, 2023:
 
 Amortized CostFair ValueGross unrealized gainsGross unrealized losses
    
Fixed rate US Government Bonds$29,614 $29,526 $ $87 
Fixed rate Canadian Government Bonds$11,251 $11,170 $ $82 
Total$40,865 $40,696 $ $169 

There were no maturities or sales of available-for-sale securities for the three month periods ended June 30, 2023 and July 1, 2022, respectively. No unrealized gains or losses were reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income during the same periods.

The contractual maturities of the marketable securities held at June 30, 2023 are as follows: $26,651 within one year and $14,045 beyond one year to five years.
 

15    NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

    Recently issued accounting pronouncements

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). ASU 2020-04 is intended to provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by the discontinuation of the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or by another reference rate expected to be discontinued. Subsequently in December 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)—Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848, which delayed the effective date to December 31, 2024. The Company plans to adopt Topic 848 in the fourth fiscal quarter of 2023, and does not expect this guidance to have a significant impact on its financial statements and disclosures.

16    REVENUES

Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with our customer are satisfied; generally this occurs with the transfer of control of our goods at a point in time based on shipping terms and transfer of title. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring goods. The amount of consideration received can vary, primarily because of customer incentive or rebate arrangements. The Company estimates variable consideration based on the expected value of total consideration to which customers are likely to be entitled based on historical experience and projected market expectations. Included in the estimate is an assessment as to whether any variable consideration is constrained. Revenue estimates are adjusted at the earlier of a change in the expected value of consideration or when the consideration becomes fixed. For all contracts with customers, the Company has not adjusted the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component as the period between the transfer of the promised goods and the customer's payment is expected to be one year or less. Sales are made on normal and customary short-term credit terms, generally ranging from 30 to 90 days, or upon delivery of point of sale transactions. Sales, value add, and other taxes we collect concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue.

The Company enters into contractual arrangements with customers in the form of individual customer orders which specify the goods, quantity, pricing, and associated order terms. The Company does not have contracts which are satisfied over time. Due to the nature of these contracts, no significant judgment exists in relation to the identification of the customer contract, satisfaction of the performance obligation, or transaction price. The Company expenses incremental costs of obtaining a contract due to the short-term nature of the contracts.

- 16 -


JOHNSON OUTDOORS INC.
Estimated costs of returns, allowances and discounts, based on historic experience, are accrued as a reduction to sales when revenue is recognized. The Company provides customers the right to return eligible products under certain circumstances. At June 30, 2023, the right to returns asset was $892 and the accrued returns liability was $2,263. At July 1, 2022, the right to returns asset was $765 and the accrued returns liability was $2,226. The Company also offers assurance-type warranties relating to its products sold to end customers that continue to be accounted for under ASC 460 Guarantees.

The Company generally accounts for shipping and handling activities as a fulfillment activity, consistent with the timing of revenue recognition; that is, when a customer takes control of the transferred goods. In the event that a customer were to take control of a product upon or after shipment, the Company has made an accounting policy election to treat such shipping and handling activities as a fulfillment cost. Shipping and handling fees billed to customers are included in "Net Sales," and shipping and handling costs are recognized within "Marketing and selling expenses" in the same period the related revenue is recognized.

The Company has a wide variety of seasonal, outdoor recreation products used primarily for fishing from a boat, diving, paddling, hiking and camping, that are sold to a variety of customers in multiple end markets. Nonetheless, the revenue recognition policies are similar among all the various products sold by the Company.

See Note 16 for required disclosures of disaggregated revenue.

17    SEGMENTS OF BUSINESS

The Company conducts its worldwide operations through separate business segments, each of which represents major product lines. Operations are conducted in the United States and various foreign countries, primarily in Europe, Canada and the Pacific Basin.  During the three and nine month period ended June 30, 2023, combined net sales to one customer of the Company's Fishing, Camping and Watercraft Recreation segments represented approximately $26,040 and $83,948, respectively, of the Company's consolidated revenues. During the three and nine month periods ended July 1, 2022, combined net sales to one customer of the Company's Fishing, Camping and Watercraft Recreation segments represented approximately $20,607 and $69,528, respectively, of the Company's consolidated revenues.

Net sales and operating profit include both sales to customers, as reported in the Company’s accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, and interunit transfers, which are priced to recover cost plus an appropriate profit margin. Total assets represent assets that are used in the Company’s operations in each business segment at the end of the periods presented.

During the second fiscal quarter of 2023, the Company sold the Military and Commercial Tent product lines of its Camping business segment to a third party in an asset sale for a purchase price of $14,990. The net book value of the assets and liabilities sold was approximately $8,350, resulting in a gain on sale of approximately $6,640, which is recorded in Other (income) expense, net in the Company’s accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The purchase price and the net proceeds received by the Company related to this sale were subject to customary purchase price adjustment provisions and Company indemnity obligations set forth in the definitive purchase agreement. Accordingly, during the third fiscal quarter of 2023, a working capital true-up was recorded, which reduced the purchase price and the final net gain to approximately $6,560. The sale did not include the Eureka! brand name or the Eureka! consumer/recreational Camping business line.
