GATES CAPITAL MANAGEMENT INTENDS TO VOTE AGAINST THE CURRENT CSG PROPOSAL

Remains Committed to Supporting the Best Outcome for All Vista Shareholders

Encourages Vista to Negotiate an All-Cash Transaction for the Entire Company Given Fully-Taxable Nature of CSG Proposal as well as the Execution Risk in Achieving Revelyst Projections and the Reduced Scale of the Remaining Revelyst

New York, September 24, 2024 - Gates Capital Management, Inc. (“Gates Capital Management” or “we”), an event-driven alternative asset manager that beneficially owns 5,589,041 shares of common stock, or approximately 9.6%, of Vista Outdoor, Inc. (“Vista” or the “Company”) (NYSE: VSTO), today issued a statement encouraging Vista to finalize negotiations for an all-cash offer for the Company and reiterating its intention to vote AGAINST the proposed sale of The Kinetic Group to the Czechoslovak Group a.s. (“CSG”).

The full statement follows:

On Friday, September 20, 2024, leading independent proxy advisory firm Institutional Shareholder Services (“ISS”) recommended that shareholders vote AGAINST the latest CSG proposal. We agree with the ISS recommendation and support its view that the best outcome for shareholders would be attained by selling both The Kinetic Group and Revelyst in a revised all-cash transaction.

Recent public disclosures indicate that a private equity firm has recently offered $1.1 billion in cash for Revelyst, but that such a transaction would need to take place sooner rather than later since the firm would not have any interest in purchasing Revelyst after the closing of the currently proposed CSG transaction. We strongly believe that the currently proposed transaction with CSG to sell only The Kinetic Group is not in the best interest of shareholders as it would eliminate the possibility of subsequently selling Revelyst to this private equity firm. For this reason, we see no reason to support any transaction that doesn’t include a comprehensive sale of the entire Company.

As shown in the chart below, the current CSG proposal delivers the least amount of cash to existing Vista shareholders and is the only proposal that exposes Vista shareholders to the execution risks associated with a standalone, sub-scale, publicly traded Revelyst.

Accordingly, we encourage Vista to finalize negotiations for an all-cash offer for the Company for the benefit of all Vista shareholders.
