Filing evidence summary

Constructive evidenceCoverage 4/5 core metrics

Operating margin changed +0.6 percentage points from the prior annual period.

Backward-looking filed evidence under visible rules - not a rating, forecast or investment advice. Missing data is never scored.

Evidence signals

  • Operating margin was stable

    Operating margin changed +0.6 percentage points from the prior annual period.

    Why this surfaced

    Direction threshold: more than +1 percentage point constructive; below -1 point caution. Period end 2025-12-27.

  • No current rule-based risk flags

    10 filing-based checks were evaluable.

    Why this surfaced

    The full financial analysis shows each value, threshold, and sector limitation.

  • Revenue expanded

    Latest reported annual revenue changed +15.1% from the prior reported annual observation.

    Why this surfaced

    Direction threshold: above +2% constructive; below -2% caution; otherwise monitor. This is not labeled one-year growth when filing periods have a gap. Period end 2025-12-27.

  • Free cash flow was positive

    Latest reported free cash flow was $1.4B.

    Why this surfaced

    Free cash flow = operating cash flow minus capital expenditures; positive is supporting evidence, not a valuation conclusion. Period end 2025-12-27.

Each filer's latest fiscal year as stored by the nightly crawl; fiscal year ends differ across the universe. A metric ranks only filers for which it is computable from filed facts. Ties split; a rank reads "better than N% of filers" in the metric's own direction. Descriptive and educational, not a rating.

Per fiscal year from filed facts: cash conversion = operating cash flow / net income (net income > 0); cash-flow accrual ratio = (net income - operating cash flow) / average total assets; balance-sheet accrual ratio = change in net operating assets / average net operating assets, NOA = (assets - cash) - (liabilities - debt). Descriptive; a missing input yields a missing ratio. High accrual ratios and cash conversion well below one are the measures the accruals literature associates with less persistent earnings; they are screens to read the cash-flow statement with, not conclusions. The per-year series is part of Pro risk analysis.

First filing reporting each period vs the latest filing carrying it (10-K and 10-Q only, periods since 2020, the extractor's winning tag per concept); a change under 0.5% is treated as rounding. A change can be a restatement, a reclassification or a re-tagging in a later comparative column; the two filings are linked so the reader can see which. Descriptive, not a verdict.

Commitments and contingencies · 2,868 characters as filed

8. Commitments and Contingencies Commitments The Company is party to certain commitments that require the future purchase of goods or services (unconditional purchase obligations). The Companys unconditional purchase obligations primarily consist of payments for inventory, capital expenditures, and other indirect purchases in connection with conducting its business. The aggregate amount of purchase orders and other commitments open as of June 27, 2026 that may represent noncancelable unconditional purchase obligations having a remaining term in excess of one year was approximately $ 589,000 . Certain cash balances are held as collateral in relation to bank guarantees. This restricted cash is reported within other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and totaled $ 735 and $ 714 as of June 27, 2026 and December 27, 2025, respectively. The total of the cash and cash equivalents balance and the restricted cash reported within other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets equals the total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash shown in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. Contingencies Management of the Company currently does not believe it is reasonably possible that the Company may have incurred a material loss, or a material loss in excess of recorded accruals, with respect to loss contingencies in the aggregate, for the fiscal quarter ended June 27, 2026. The results of legal proceedings, investigations and claims, however, canno

5. Income Taxes The Company recorded income tax expense of $ 109,141 in the 13-week period ended June 27, 2026, compared to income tax expense of $ 79,429 in the 13-week period ended June 28, 2025. The effective tax rate was 16.8 % in the second quarter of 2026, compared to 16.5 % in the second quarter of 2025. The increase in effective tax rate between comparative periods was primarily due to changes in income mix by jurisdiction. The Company recorded income tax expense of $ 176,591 in the 26-week period ended June 27, 2026, compared to income tax expense of $ 135,737 in the 26-week period ended June 28, 2025. The effective tax rate was 15.7 % in the first half of 2026, compared to 15.6 % in the first half of 2025. The increase in effective tax rate between comparative periods was primarily due to changes in income mix by jurisdiction.

2. Revenue To further depict how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of the Company's revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors, Garmin disaggregates revenue (or net sales) by geographic region, major product category, and pattern of recognition. Disaggregated revenue by geographic region (Americas, EMEA, and APAC) is presented in Note 11 Segment Information and Geographic Data. Note 11 also contains disaggregated revenue information of the five major product categories identified by the Company (fitness, outdoor, aviation, marine, and auto OEM), which also represent the Companys operating segments. A large majority of the Companys revenue is recognized on a point in time basis, usually once the product is shipped and title and risk of loss have transferred to the customer. Revenue recognized over time relates to performance obligations that are satisfied over the estimated life of the product or contractual service period and is primarily within the outdoor and aviation segments, and, to a lesser extent, within the auto OEM, fitness, and marine segments. Revenue disaggregated by pattern of recognition, based on the timing of transfer of the goods or services, is presented in the table below: 13-Weeks Ended 26-Weeks Ended June 27, 2026 June 28, 2025 June 27, 2026 June 28, 2025 Point in time $ 1,938,804 $ 1,731,996 $ 3,607,942 $ 3,185,350 Over time 83,288 82,568 167,640 164,313 Net sales $ 2,022,092 $ 1,814,564 $ 3,775,582 $ 3,349,663 Transaction price and

Segment reporting · 4,686 characters as filed

11. Segment Information and Geographic Data Garmin is organized in the five operating segments of fitness, outdoor, aviation, marine, and auto OEM, which represent the primary markets served by the Company. These operating segments are also the Company's reportable segments. The Companys Chief Executive Officer, who has been identified as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), uses operating income (loss) as the primary measure of profit or loss to assess segment performance. Operating income (loss) represents net sales less costs of goods sold and operating expenses. Net sales are directly attributed to each segment. Most costs of goods sold and the majority of operating expenses are also directly attributed to each segment, while certain other costs of goods sold and operating expenses are allocated to the segments in a reasonable manner considering the specific facts and circumstances of the costs or expenses being allocated. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 1 - Accounting Policies. There are no inter-segment sales or transfers. The Companys segments share many common resources, infrastructures and assets in the normal course of business, and certain assets are therefore not separately tracked by segment. Thus, the Company does not report accounts receivable, inventories, property and equipment, intangible assets, capital expenditures, depreciation expense, or amortization expense by segment to the CODM. The CODM utilizes
