Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

On February 15, 2012, Black Diamond, Inc. (the “Company”) presented the information attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 (the “Presentation”) at a series of meetings with members of the investment community.

The Presentation contains the non-GAAP measures: (i) combined and pro forma sales, and (ii) earnings before interest, taxes, other income, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) and adjusted EBITDA.   The Company also believes that presentation of certain non-GAAP measures, i.e., (i) combined and pro forma sales, and (ii) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, 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, to the nearest GAAP measures, a better baseline for modeling future earnings expectations. The non-GAAP measures are reconciled to comparable GAAP financial measures in the financial tables 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 Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto 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.
