The information contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K (including the exhibit) is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements in this communication regarding the spin-off and any other statements regarding ATK’s future expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, financial conditions, assumptions or future events or performance that are not historical facts are “forward-looking” statements made within the meaning of Section 21E of the Exchange Act. These statements are often, but not always, made through the use of words or phrases such as “may,” “will,” “expected,” “intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “project” or “continue” and similar expressions. All such forward-looking statements involve estimates and assumptions that are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed in the statements. Among the key factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements are the following: competition in the outdoor sporting market; change in demand and manufacturing costs of our products; supply, availability and costs of raw materials and components, including commodity price fluctuations; risks associated with expansion into new and adjacent commercial markets; government laws and other rules and regulations applicable to Vista Outdoor, including procurement and import-export control; exposure to potential product liability, warranty liability or personal injury claims and litigation; our products, including ammunition and firearms, are subject to extensive regulation; environmental laws that govern past, current and future practices and rules and regulations; changes in the regulation of the manufacture, sale and purchase of firearms and ammunition; security threats, including cybersecurity and other industrial and physical security threats; the costs and ultimate outcome of litigation matters and other legal proceedings; major earthquakes, weather events, cyberattacks, terrorist attacks or other catastrophic events at any of our facilities; financial market disruptions or volatility to our customers and vendors; unanticipated changes in the tax provision or exposure to additional tax liabilities; costs of servicing our debt, including cash requirements and interest rate fluctuations; actual pension and other postretirement plan asset returns and assumptions regarding future returns, discount rates, service costs, mortality rates and health care cost trend rates; performance of our subcontractors; and development of key technologies and retention of a qualified workforce.

Additional information concerning these and other factors can be found in ATK’s and Vista Outdoor’s filings with the Commission, including ATK’s most recent Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K, ATK’s registration statement on Form S-4 (declared effective on December 17, 2014) and Vista Outdoor’s registration statement on Form 10 (which registration statement has not yet been declared effective).

VISTA Outdoor Analyst Presentation January 7, 2015

Forward Looking Statements This presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995; particularly statements regarding future financial and operating results of Vista Outdoor Inc. (the “Company”) and its business. These statements are based on management’s current expectations or beliefs, and are subject to uncertainty and changes in circumstances. Actual results may vary materially from those expressed or implied by the statements in this presentation due to changes in economic, business, competitive, technological, strategic and/or regulatory factors, and other factors affecting the operation of the Company’s business. More detailed information about these factors may be found in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including ATK’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed on November 7, 2014 and the Company’s Registration Statement on Form 10 filed on August 13, 2014 and most recently amended on December 22, 2014. The Company is under no obligation to, and expressly disclaims any such obligation to, update or alter its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Non-GAAP Measures Non-GAAP financial measures such as earnings before depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA – Capex as included in this Presentation, are supplemental measures that are not calculated in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA adjusted for asset impairments, restructuring and severance costs, gains or losses on operating assets, and external costs related to mergers, acquisitions or dispositions. We refer to Adjusted EBITDA – Capex as a proxy for cash flow from operations. We believe that the presentation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA – Capex helps investors analyze underlying trends in our business, evaluate the performance of our business both on an absolute basis and relative to our peers and the broader market, provides useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of the core operating results and operational strength of our business and helps investors evaluate our ability to service our debt. Please see the Appendix hereto for reconciliations of these Non-GAAP financial measures to their comparable GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical and comparative tools and you should consider EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA – Capex in addition to, and not as a substitute for, operating income, cash provided by operations or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity reported in accordance with GAAP. Throughout the presentation, certain numbers will not sum to the total due to rounding.
