Amer Sports, Inc. raised its financial guidance for the third quarter of 2025 due to continued momentum at Arc’Teryx and  Salomon. The update was made ahead of an Investor Day planned for September 18 in Vancouver, British Columbia.

Amer also reiterated its long-term financial algorithm.

CEO James Zheng commented, “We expect Amer Sports to deliver very strong third quarter results across all three segments, led by continued exceptional growth from Salomon Softgoods and an Arc’teryx reacceleration.”

CFO Andrew Page, who is also serving as interim CEO for Wilson Sports, added “In addition to strong near-term performance, we expect great things from our unique portfolio of premium sports and outdoor brands long-term. We are pleased to reiterate ambitious long-term financial goals despite our much higher revenue and margin base today versus 2023, which was the baseline year when we last shared our long-term algorithm.”

Amer’s brands also include Wilson, Peak Performance, Atomic, Armada, ATEC, DeMarini, EvoShield and Louisville Slugger.

Updated Long-Term Financial Algorithm
Amer said its long-term financial algorithm assumes the previously issued guidance for the year ending December 31, 2025 as the base year and a duration of 5+ years. Except for revenue, all metrics reference non-IFRS measures.
