EXPLANATORY NOTE

Clarus Corporation is filing this Amendment No. 1 to its Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 11, 2024 (the “Original Form 8-K”), solely to refurnish the presentation attached as Exhibit 99.1 thereto in order to correct a typographical error, which was noted to the participants during the investor day event.

Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

Clarus Corporation (“Clarus” or the “Company”) will host an investor day event on Monday, March 11, 2024, from 12:00 pm to 2:00 pm EDT in New York City, NY. The event will include a presentation (the “Presentation”) by Clarus’ management, including Warren B. Kanders, Executive Chairman; Michael J. Yates, Chief Financial Officer; Neil Fiske, President, Black Diamond Equipment; and Mathew Hayward, Managing Director of Clarus' Adventure segment; followed by Q&A sessions. The investor day event will be broadcast live and available for replay on the Company’s website at www.claruscorp.com. The Presentation and related information are furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and are incorporated herein by reference.

The Presentation contains the non-GAAP measures: (i) adjusted gross margin and adjusted gross profit, (ii) adjusted (loss) income from continuing operations and related earnings (loss) per diluted share, (iii) earnings before interest, taxes, other income or expense, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA margin, and (iv) free cash (defined as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures). The Company believes the presentation of these non-GAAP measures provides useful information for the understanding of its ongoing operations and enables investors to focus on period-over-period operating performance, and thereby enhances the user’s overall understanding of the Company’s current financial performance relative to past performance and provides, along with the nearest GAAP measures, a baseline for modeling future earnings expectation. The non-GAAP measures are reconciled to comparable GAAP financial measures within the Presentation. The Company cautions that non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the Company's reported GAAP results. Additionally, the Company notes that there can be no assurance that the above referenced non-GAAP financial measures are comparable to similarly titled financial measures used by other publicly traded companies.

The information in this Form 8-K and the Presentation attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Act of 1934, as amended, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
