BUSINESS General We are a global leader in designing, marketing, and distributing innovative footwear, apparel, and accessories developed for both everyday casual lifestyle use and high-performance activities. We market our products primarily under three proprietary brands : HOKA , UGG , and Teva . Our brands compete across the fashion and casual lifestyle, performance , running, and outdoor markets. We believe our products are distinctive and appeal to a broad demographic. Our brands sell our products through quality domestic and international retailers and international distributors in our wholesale channel, and directly to global consumers through our Direct-to-Consumer ( DTC ) channel, which is comprised of an e‑commerce and retail store presence. We seek to differentiate our brands and products by offering diverse lines that emphasize fashion, performance, authenticity, functionality, quality, and comfort, and products tailored to a variety of activities, seasons, and demographic groups. Independent third-party contractors manufacture all of our products ( independent manufacturers ). Table of Contents 4 Brands The HOKA brand is an authentic premium line of year- round performance footwear, which offers enhanced cushioning and inherent stability with minimal weight. Originally designed for ultra-runners, the brand now appeals to world champions, tastemakers, and everyday athletes. Expansion into additional product categories, elevated marketing campaigns, and investments in brand experiences, coupled with strategic marketplace presence have fueled both domestic and international sales growth of the HOKA brand, which has quickly become a leading brand within run and outdoor specialty wholesale accounts and is growing across its global marketplace. The HOKA brand’s product line includes running, trail, hiking, fitness, and lifestyle footwear offerings, as well as apparel and accessories. The UGG brand is one of the most iconic and recognized brands in our industry, which highlights our successful track record of building niche brands into consumer- focused fashion lifestyle market leaders. Born on the California coast to warm surfers after they caught and rode the waves, we create iconic products and experiences that are made for people to feel comfort, softness, warmth, and confidence. With loyal consumers around the world, innovative products, and elevated storytelling, the UGG brand has proven to be a highly resilient consumer-focused line of premium footwear, apparel, and accessories that has driven both domestic and international sales growth with year-round product offerings that appeal to a growing global audience and a broad demographic. Other brands consist primarily of the Teva brand . The Teva brand’s products are built for a range of outdoor pursuits and include a variety of footwear options, from classic sandals and shoes to boots. Table of Contents 5 The Other brands reportable operating segment includes financial results of the Koolaburra brand and AHNU brand, for which the phas e out of standalone operations were completed during the third and fourth quarters of fiscal year 2026 , as well as financial results for the former Sanuk brand during the prior period through the sale date of August 15, 2024 ( Sanuk Brand Sale Date ). Refer to the section titled “Reportable Operating Segments” below for further details about our reportable operating segments . Channel Distribution We operate omnichannel global marketplaces for our brands where consumers can shop and experience our brands seamlessly across both channels outlined below . Wholesale. Our wholesale channel sells products to a network of third-party retailers, including partner retailers, and distributors. This approach enables us to expand market reach and leverage the scale and operational capabilities of our wholesale partners to serve a broad base of end consumers. We sell our HOKA brand products primarily through full-service specialty retailers, outdoor and sporting goods retailers, select online retailers, fashion lifestyle retailers, sports style partners, and higher-end department stores. We continue to expand our HOKA brand wholesale distribution globally, including through additional mono-branded locations operated by partner retailers. We sell our UGG brand products primarily through fashion lifestyle retailers, higher-end department stores, streetwear and sports style partners, online retailers and partner retailers. As the retail marketplace continues to evolve to reflect changing consumer preferences, we continually review and evaluate our UGG wholesale distribution and product segmentation approach . We sell our Teva brand products primarily through outdoor and sporting goods retailers, fashion lifestyle retailers, large national retail chains, higher-end department stores, and online re tailers. Direct-to-Consumer. Our DTC channel is comprised of our Company-owned e-commerce websites and retail stores where products are sold at retail prices. Our e-commerce websites and retail stores are intertwined and interdependent in an omnichannel marketplace, which engenders brand loyalty while increasing product sales and improving our inventory productivity. In addition, we believe some of our consumers interact with both before making purchasing decisions in store and online. For example, consumers may feel or try on products in our retail stores and then place an order online late r, or they may initially research products online and then make a purchase in store. E-Commerce Websites. Our global e-commerce websites provide us with an opportunity to directly engage and connect with our consumers and communicate a consistent message that promotes awareness of our brands’ promises and key initiatives, offers targeted information to specific consumer demographics, and drives consumers to our retail stores. Our e‑commerce websites provide consumers with access to the broadest selection and assortment of our products . As of March 31, 2026 , we operate Company-owned e-commerce websites in 54 different countries. R et ail Stores . Retail stores enable us to expose consumers to a curated selection of products and directly influence our consumers’ experience with our brands. We continue to open mono-branded retail stores in key markets to further grow the UGG brand and HOKA brand presence and appeal to a broader consumer base, while also prioritizing the revitalization and recalibration of our existing retail store fleet to enhance overall brand impact and consumer experience . As of March 31, 2026 , we have a total of 203 global Company-owned retail stores (including 141 UGG brand retail stores and 62 HOKA brand retail stores), which include 105 concept stores and 98 outlet stores. Geographic Distribution US Distribution. In our wholesale channel, we sell our products in the US through sales representatives, organized by brand and either geography or account type, as each brand generally has certain strategic customers that expect a dedicated sales team with specialized knowledge of the brand’s product offerings. In addition to our wholesale Table of Contents 6 channel, we sell products directly to consumers through our DTC channel and fulfill online orders through our warehouses and DC s , and retail stores. We currently distribute products sold in the US through our DC s in Moreno Valley, California , and Mooresville, Indiana . We also distribute products to our wholesale channel customers through a DC bypass program. International Distribution. Collectively, our brands are sold internationally, including in Canada, Europe, Asia, and Latin America . We sell our products internationally in our wholesale channel through wholly owned subsidiaries and independent distributors, some of which operate partner retail stores. In addition, in certain countries we sell products through our DTC channel. For our wholesale and DTC channels, we distribute our products through a number of warehouses and DC s managed by 3PL s in certain international locations. We are currently transitioning one of our international 3PL s to a new partner. Refer to Part I, Item 2, “Properties,” and Note 7, “Leases,” of our consolidated financial statements in Part IV within this Annual Report for further information on our properties and leases . Refer to Note 2, “Revenue Recognition and Business Concentrations,” of our consolidated financial statements in Part IV within this Annual Report for further information regarding geographic areas and concentration of related business risks. Reportable Operating Segments As of March 31, 2026 , our three reportable operating segments include the worldwide operations of the HOKA brand, UGG brand, and Other brands (collectively, our reportable operating segments ) . Other brands consist primarily of the Teva brand . T he Other brands reportable operating segment includes current and historical results of brands previously sold and brands for which standalone operations have been phased out, as discussed below. Consistent with our continuous focus on pursuing the most profitable long-term opportunities, we have taken the following strategic actions to streamline our brand portfolio within the Other brands reportable operating segment : • During the second quarter of fiscal year 2026 , we began phasing out standalone operations for the AHNU brand. We closed Ahnu.com as of October 1, 2025, and completed the phase out of the AHNU brand in the wholesale channel during third and fourth quarters of fiscal year 2026 . We did not incur material exit costs or obligations associated with this plan. • During the third quarter of fiscal year 2025 , we began phasing out standalone operations for the Koolaburra brand. We closed Koolaburra.com as of the end of fiscal year 2025 and completed the phase out of the Koolaburra brand in the wholesale channel during the third and fourth quarters of fiscal year 2026 . We did not incur material exit costs or obligations associated with this plan. • The sale of the Sanuk brand was completed during the second quarter of fiscal year 2025 . The financial results for the reportable operating segments present the former Sanuk brand through the Sanuk Brand Sale Date . Refer to Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” the section titled “Basis of Presentation,” in Note 1, “General,” and to Note 13, “Reportable Operating Segments,” of our consolidated financial statements in Part IV within this Annual Report for further information on our reportable operating segments . Product Design and Development We are committed to designing innovative, functional, and distinctive products that enable consumers to move through the world with greater comfort, confidence, and performance. Our design and development teams collaborate to create seasonal product lines that meet consumers where they are and exceed their expectation s. Each brand follows a disciplined product creation path that begins with engaging key consumer segments to gather insights, conducting in-depth market and trend analysis, and incorporating color and material research . While this process is consistent across the portfolio, each brand applies it differently based on its unique consumer and design philoso phy. The HOKA brand emphasizes high‑performance innovation informed by biomechanics, athlete partnerships, and iterative dynamic testing to refine cushioning systems, rocker geometries, and technical components. The UGG brand focuses on premium materials, sensory comfort, and modern lifestyle aesthetics, with development centered on tactile experience, durability, and seasonal versatility. The Teva brand product creation Table of Contents 7 focuses on offerings to reflect its modern outdoor versatility. These differentiated approaches ensure that each brand delivers products that reflect its identity and the expectations of its target consumer. Throughout the creation process, our teams conduct concept and design reviews, develop prototypes assembled by our independent manufacturers , and complete multiple rounds of sampling for fit, comfort, and performance. Depending on the brand and product application, this may include athlete testing or specialized laboratory testing performed by external partners . Our internal research and development specialists collaborate with experts in engineering, industrial design, chemistry, and materials science to advance new technologies, cushioning systems, and material innovations that can be leveraged across brands. At every stage, we evaluate raw material availability and cost, manufacturing capabilities and capacity, and target product pricing. Our multi‑brand portfolio enables us to share learnings, scale innovations, and drive efficiencies across product lines, supporting both product excellence and operational performance. Marketing and Advertising Our marketing and advertising efforts are designed to strengthen brand awareness, deepen consumer engagement, and drive purchase intent across our portfolio of brands. We seek to connect with consumers through distinctive brand storytelling, product innovation, consumer insights, and integrated marketing campaigns that communicate the unique positioning of each brand and support long-term brand affinity. We invest in a mix of digital advertising, social media, influencer and ambassador partnerships, experiential activations, content, public relations, and traditional media to deliver relevant and impactful messaging. These efforts are intended to attract new consumers, retain and engage existing consumers, and reinforce the authenticity, relevance and desirability of our brands. Our campaigns reflect the distinct positioning of each brand. The HOKA brand highlights its premium performance heritage rooted in enhanced cushioning, inherent stability, and minimal weight, appealing to world champions, tastemakers, and everyday athletes across running, trail, hiking, fitness, and lifestyle categories for its footwear, apparel, and accessories. The UGG brand emphasizes its iconic status and year‑round premium footwear, apparel, and accessories that resonate with a broad global audience, creating iconic products and experiences made for a growing global demographic to feel comfort, softness, warmth, and confidence. The Teva brand emphasizes modern outdoor versatility, responsible materials, and elevated design. We continually evaluate the effectiveness of our marketing investments and adjust our strategies to align with evolving consumer behaviors and marketplace trends. Manufacturing and Supply Chain The production of our finished goods is outsourced to independent manufacturers , the majority of which are in Southeast Asia . During the year ended March 31, 2026 , production of our finished goods was predominantly from Vietnam and Indonesia, while less than 5% was from China or any other individual country. We continue to diversify our independent manufacturers and the regions in which they operate. Production by our independent manufacturers is performed in accordance with our detailed product specifications and rigorous quality control and operating compliance standards. We maintain a buying office in Hong Kong, as well as on-site supervisory offices in Vietnam, China, and Indonesia , which collectively serve as a strong link to our independent manufacturers . We believe our substantial regional presence enhances our manufacturing processes by providing predictability of material availability and ensuring adherence to quality control standards and final design specifications. We generally purchase products from independent manufacturers on the basis of individual purchase orders, rather than maintaining long-term purchase commitments, which provides us greater flexibility to adapt to changing c onsumer preferences, shifts in economic conditions, changes in international trade relations, and evolving inventory management requirement s. The majority of the raw materials and components used in the production of our products by our independent manufacturers are purchased from independent suppliers that we designate ( designated suppliers ), who work with subcontractors that extract, process, or convert these raw materials. Table of Contents 8 Sheepskin used to manufacture a significant portion of our UGG brand products is sourced primarily from Australia and processed by two tanneries in China . We currently enter into fixed purchasing contracts with designated suppliers of sheepskin and sugarcane-derived ethylene-vinyl acetate (sugarcane-derived EVA ) to manage price volatility and ensure availability . Excluding sheepskin, UGGplush , UGGpure , sugarcane-derived EVA , and certain branded components, we believe that substantially all raw materials and components used to manufacture our products are generally available from multiple sources at competitive prices . While alternative materials may be available for certain branded components, which may be limited, such alternatives would not include the same trademarks . We believe current supplies are sufficient to meet our anticipated demand for the next 12 months. Refer to the subsectio n titled “Contractual Obligations” under the section “Liquidity” within Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and Note 8, “Commitments and Contingencies,” of our consolidated financial statements in Part IV within this Annual Report for further information on our purchase obligations. We require our independent manufacturers and designated suppliers to adopt our Ethical Supply Chain Supplier Code of Conduct ( Supplier Code of Conduct ), which requires them to comply with all local laws and regulations governing human rights, working conditions, anti-corruption, restricted substances, and environmental compliance, including animal welfare and conflict minerals, before we are willing to conduct business with them. Refer to the section titled “Environmental, Social, and Governance” below for further information. Inventory Management and Product Returns We have an extended design and manufacturing process, which involves product designs, the purchase of raw and other materials, inventory accumulation, the subsequent sale of finished product, and the collection of resulting accounts receivable. This production cycle results in significant liquidity requirements and working capital fluctuations throughout our fiscal year. Because the cycle typically involves long lead times, which requires us to make manufacturing decisions several months in advance of anticipated customer demand, it is challenging for us to accurately estimate and manage our inventory and working capital requirements. We manage our inventory levels by considering existing orders, as well as forecasted sales and budgets by brand for both the wholesale and DTC channels, taking into account customer delivery requirements. Our systems and processes are designed to improve our product planning and forecasting, inventory control and supply chain management capabilities, including our Company-owned e-commerce websites. In addition, added discipline around SKU productivity, product purchasing decisions, lead time reduction, and selling excess inventory through our liquidation channels, are key areas of focus that have enhanced inventory performance, including higher inventory turnover, and partially mitigated product cost increases. We encourage our customers to place a significant portion of orders through pre-season programs, which are typically placed up to 12 months prior to shipment, while also allowing for in-season replenishment orders. These pre-season programs enable us to better plan our production schedules, inventory levels, and shipping requirements. Our general practice, consistent with industry standards, is to offer customers in our wholesale channel the right to return defective or improperly shipped merchandise, and to accept returns from our consumers in the DTC channel between 30 to 90 days from the point of sale for cash or credit. Refer to the section titled “Liquidity” within Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” within this Annual Report for further information on our liquidity . Environmental, Social, and Governance As a global leader in designing, marketing, and distributing innovative footwear, apparel, and accessories, our worldwide reach and impact is significant. We believe consumers are increasingly buying brands that deliver quality products while striving for minimal environmental impact by employing sustainable business practices. Our sustainability policies and strategies are informed by our ongoing efforts with multi-stakeholder initiatives, which involve our stockholders, employees, suppliers, and customers, as well as other brands and non-governmental organizations. Table of Contents 9 Through our holistic ESG program, we are committed to advancing our sustainable business initiatives. As a result of our efforts, during fiscal year 2026 , we were recognized as a Net Zero Leader by Forbes , by Wall Street Journal as one of the Best-Managed Companies and by Newsweek as one of America’s Most Responsible Companies , one of the World’s Greenest Companies and one of America’s Most Charitable Companies . ESG Oversight. Our Corporate Responsibility, Sustainability & Governance Committee ( Corporate Governance Committee ) is comprised of four independent members of our Board of Directors ( Board ) who oversee our ESG strategy and have ultimate oversight over all sustainability initiatives, strategies, and programs, including those related to climate change, human rights, community engagement, charitable giving, and belonging. The Corporate Governance Committee and Board regularly receive updates on the status of our ESG program. In addition, the Audit & Risk Management Committee ( Audit Committee ) of the Board periodically assesses risk management, including climate-related risks and policies, to ensure a consistent corporate strategy. The Board considers whether the ESG program adequately identifies material risks in a timely fashion, implements appropriate responsive risk management strategies, and ensures that management transmits necessary information with respect to material risks within the organization . Our Chief Administrative and Legal Officer ( CALO ) is responsible for the day-to-day management of our ESG program. The program’s execution is driven by our leadership team and various cross- functional teams including our ethical sourcing, facilities, warehouses and DC s, brands, innovation, materials, and supply chain teams. Our ESG program aligns our internal teams with our Sustainable Development Goals ( SDG s), which we adopt to guide our ESG strategy, and establishes policies to encourage our partners and suppliers to employ sustainable business practices. We annually assess risks related to ESG issues as part of our overall enterprise risk management approach. In addition, our internal audit team provides periodic targeted reviews of our ESG -related policies and procedures to the Audit Committee . Sustainable Development Goals. We work to establish SDG s that we believe are the most relevant to our business, our operations, our stockholders, and the communities in which we operate. We are a member of the United Nations Global Compact ( UNGC ) , the world’s largest voluntary corporate sustainability initiative. This membership requires an annual statement of progress, which is reflected in our Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability Report ( Creating Change Report ). Our CALO identifies specific SDG s established by the UNGC , which we adopt to guide our ESG strategy. Our annual Creating Change Report for fiscal year 2026 , which will be published in calendar year 2026 , will provide more information regarding our fiscal year 2026 ESG achievements with a focus on the SDG s. In addition, during fiscal year 2026 , we adopted a comprehensive Climate Transition Plan , reflecting our commitment to proactive environmental stewardship. We recognize that agility and continuous improvement are essential to advancing our global ESG strategy, enabling us to respond effectively to evolving challenges and opportunities in sustainability. T o that end, we have aligned the reporting standards included in our Climate Transition Plan to the Transition Plan Taskforce and our Creating Change Report with various frameworks including the Financial Stability Board’s Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (commonly referred to as TCFD ), Global Reporting Initiative’s (commonly referred to as GRI ) Core Standards, and Sustainability Accounting Standards Board’s (commonly referred to as SASB ), and now part of the International Finance Reporting Standard (or IFRS ) Foundation Consumer Goods Sector Apparel, Accessories and Footwear Index . Stakeholder Engagement. We highly value stakeholder input and have consistently demonstrated our commitment to maintaining open and interactive dialogue on ESG matters with our stakeholders, including non-governmental organizations, employees, stockholders, suppliers, industry groups, communities, and governments, to ensure their views are actively considered in executing our ESG program. Our stakeholder outreach program is led by a cross- functional team that includes members of our investor relations, compliance, sustainability, and legal teams. Additionally, we actively engage with our employees to obtain valuable feedback and track progress, including through regular employee engagement surveys. Table of Contents 10 Human Capital - Our People and Our Culture Employees. As of March 31, 2026 , we employed approximately 6,000 global employees, reflecting an increase of 9.1% , compared to March 31, 2025 . This includes approximately 2,200 employees in our retail stores but excludes temporary and seasonal employees . Culture . Our key values, which guide our journey onward together to improve our business and create a better world around us, and help hold us accountable to deliver on this purpose, are as follows: Our values define our Company and serve as the driving force behind how we work together and with our customers, consumers, partners, suppliers, and communities. We also have detailed policies that support our commitment to ethical behavior and legal compliance across our Company. Through our open-door policy and culture, employees are encouraged to approach their managers if they believe violations of standards or policies have occurred and are able to make confidential and anonymous reports using a 24/7 online or telephone hotline hosted by an independent third-party provider. At Deckers, we believe our culture makes us unique. We regularly conduct employee surveys to understand our employees’ experiences on a variety of topics focused on employee engagement. Our latest survey completed in August 2025 had a participation rate of 92.3%. Of those employees who completed the survey, 88.4% noted they were proud to work for Deckers . We believe an inclusive workplace that promotes belonging for everyone brings together those with a unique set of experiences, opinions, and thoughts on critical issues. In turn, these varied perspectives enhance our business and drive better outcomes. Our people are at the center of everything we do. Their perspectives and passion for innovation enable us to build brands and create products that people around the world love. We strive to create an environment where employees can come as they are and are free to bring their authentic selves to work every day. We publish workforce metrics in our annual Equal Employment Opportunity filing ( EEO-1 ) which is publicly available at deckers.com/responsibility/policies . The content of our website, including our annual EEO-1 filing, is not incorporated by reference into this Annual Report or in any other report or document we file with the SEC . Charitable Giving and Volunteering. Our charitable contributions, product donations, and employee volunteer efforts are an essential part of our culture. W e annually contribute to our local communities through monetary donations, volunteer efforts, and in-kind donations. During fiscal year 2026 , we donated over $5,400 to various non- profit organizations around the glob e , primarily to organizations focused on uplifting youth, community, belonging, education, and the environment. We also continued our Art of Kindness events, where employees volunteer during a week-long event in our local communities. Despite having only one event during fiscal year 2026 , o ur employees volunteered approximately 10,500 hours . Our strategic giving and community-engagement efforts continued to be aligned with our SDG s. Talent Development and Retentio n. The ability to attract, develop, and retain employees is critical to our long-term success. We focus on our employees’ growth, creating experiences that align with our strategic priorities and promote inclusion, performance, connection, and opportunities for development. For example, we offer a week fully dedicated to employee learning, connection, and development across the globe (Explore Week), and four global leadership development programs for leaders at varying levels (Voyagers, Trailblazers, Navigator, and Ascent). Further, our executive leadership team and Board commit substantial time to succession planning, evaluating the Table of Contents 11 bench strength of our leadership and supporting their career development while improving organizational performance. We are proud to offer a wide range of programs intended to support global employee development and retention. We have demonstrated a history of investing in our workforce by offering competitive salaries and wages. We provide tuition reimbursement for eligible US employees up to $5 thousand per calendar year. Further, to foster a stronger sense of ownership and align the interests of management with stockholders, equity awards are granted to a substantial proportion of our leadership team . In addition, employees across the US business have the opportunity to purchase stock at a discounted price through our Employee Stock Purchase Plan. Further, we engage an independent compensation consultant, FW Cook, which provides us with information to evaluate the effectiveness of our executive compensation program, including competitive pay practices and trends in our industry , the design and structure of our executive compensation program, and the formulation of and benchmarking against our peers within our industry . Employee Wellness . We strive to be one of the best places to work and recognize our employees are at different stages of life and have individual needs. We offer affordable, innovative, comprehensive, and competitive benefits package that range from health insurance, retirement plan, life insurance, disability, accident coverage, paid time off, paid and unpaid leave including parental leave, mental health benefits, and other voluntary benefits such as health savings accounts and our solar and electric car reimbursement program . Employee Health and Safety. The health and safety of our employees is our highest priority. We have comprehensive safety training programs to help ensure our employees know how to do their jobs safely and in compliance with laws and regulations. We prioritize the safety of our facilities and work to ensure they are modern and efficient. Seasonality A significant part of the UGG brand’s business has historically been seasonal, with the highest percentage of net sales occurring in the third fiscal quarter , which has contributed to variation in results of operations from quarter to quarter. However, as the HOKA brand’s net sales have increased as a percentage of our aggregate net sales , the impacts of seasonality have been partially mitigated as HOKA brand sales are generally more evenly distributed throughout the fiscal year, although quarterly results may fluctuate based on the timing of product launches. This trend is expected to continue. In addition, we have further mitigated the impacts of seasonality by diversifying and expanding our year-round pr oduct offerings across our brands. Refer to Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” and Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” within this Annual Report for further discussion of the impacts of seasonality. Competition The industry and markets in which we operate are highly competitive. Our competitors include fashion, casual, lifestyle, and athletic footwear companies, branded apparel companies, and retailers with their own private labels. Although the industry is fragmented, some of our competitors are larger and have substantially greater resources, and several sell products that compete directly with our products. In particular, we face competition from domestic and international competitors selling products designed to compete directly or indirectly with products similar to those of our HOKA brand and UGG brand. In addition, access to offshore manufacturing and the growth of e- commerce have made it easier for new companies to enter the markets in which we compete, further increasing competition in the footwear, apparel, and accessories industry. We believe our ability to successfully compete depends on numerous factors, including our ability to predict, assess, and respond quickly to changing consumer tastes and preferences, produce exceptional and innovative products that meet expectations for product craft, quality and technical performance, maintain and enhance the image and strength of our brands, price our products competitively, and manage the impacts of supply chain disruptions. In addition, we believe our key customers face intense competition from other department stores, sporting goods stores, retail specialty stores, and online retailers, among others, which could negatively impact the financial stability of their businesses and their ability to conduct business with us. Refer to Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” within this Annual Report for further discussion of the potential impact of competition on our business.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS Our short and long -term success is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, many of which involve factors that are difficult to predict or beyond our control. As a result, investing in our common stock involves substantial risk. Before deciding to purchase, hold or sell our common stock, stockholders and potential stockholders should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below, in addition to the other information contained in or incorporated by reference into this Annual Report , as well as the other information we file with the SEC . If any of these risks are realized, our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects could be materially and adversely affected. In that case, the value of our common stock could decline, and stockholders may lose all or part of their investment. Furthermore, additional risks and uncertainties of which we are currently unaware, or which we currently consider to be immaterial, could have a material adverse effect on our business. Certain statements made in this section constitute “forward-looking statements,” which are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties including those described in this section. Refer to the section entitled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” within this Annual Report for further information. Table of Contents 13 Risks Related to Our Business and Industry The footwear, apparel, and accessories industry is subject to rapid changes in consumer preferences, and if we do not accurately anticipate and promptly respond to consumer demand and spending patterns, we could lose sales, our relationships with customers could be harmed, and our brand loyalty could be diminished. The footwear, apparel, and accessories industry is subject to rapid changes in consumer preferences and fashion tastes, which makes it difficult to anticipate demand for our products and forecast our results of operations. Our success depends, in part, on brand loyalty, and there can be no assurance that consumers will continue to prefer our brands. Consumer demand for our products relies on the continued strength of our brands, which in turn depends on our ability to anticipate, understand, and respond promptly to evolving preferences, fashion trends, and consumer spending patterns with appealing merchandise and effective brand-building initiatives. As our brands and product offerings evolve, our products must appeal to a broader and more diverse range of consumers whose preferences cannot be predicted with certainty. New products may not achieve market acceptance, including due to pricing that consumers are unwilling to bear, or our brands may fall out of favor, which could impede our ability to maintain or grow sales, adversely affect brand perception, and negatively impact our results of operations. If we do not effectively respond to these changes, we could experience reduced sales and pressure on our gross profit as a percentage of net sales ( gross margin ), including as a result of reduced pricing power and increased reliance on promotional activity . The value of our brands is also driven by evolving consumer perceptions, including shifting ethical, political, or social standards. Concerns related to product pricing, quality, design, technical performance, components or materials (including sustainability), customer service, or the effectiveness of our brand loyalty initiatives, including loyalty programs, could result in negative perceptions, diminished consumer engagement, and a loss of brand loyalty or value. These risks may be amplified by adverse publicity concerning us or our products, brands, marketing campaigns, partners, or endorsers, particularly where social media and digital marketing channels accelerate the dissemination, amplification, or persistence of negative claims, regardless of their accuracy, which could harm our reputation and sales and have a material adverse effect on our business. In addition, actions or statements by third‑party partners, collaborators, or organizations with which we are associated, including in connection with social or political issues, could lead to consumer backlash, operational disruptions, or reputational harm. If our brand- related initiatives, including loyalty programs, fail to drive sustained consumer engagement or incremental demand, or involve increased costs or operational complexity that negatively affect customer perceptions, we could experience reduced sales and pressure on our gross margin , adversely affecting our results of operations. Changes to economic conditions may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. Volatile economic conditions and changes in the market have affected, and may continue to affect, consumer confidence and discretionary spending. A significant portion of our HOKA brand and UGG brand products are premium, discretionary purchases, and demand for these products is sensitive to macroeconomic factors, including inflation , wages and employment, consumer debt, declines in net worth driven by market conditions, interest rates, tariffs, and public health issues such as a pandemic. During periods of economic uncertainty, consumers may reduce discretionary purchases, trade down to lower-priced alternatives, or delay buying decisions, which could require us to increase promotional activity or reduce prices, adversely affecting our sales and profitability . We sell a significant portion of our products through higher-end specialty and department store retailers and online marketplaces . These customers may be adversely affected by economic conditions, geopolitical instability, foreign currency fluctuations, reduced demand for premium products, limited access to credit, and increased competition. Financial difficulties among our customers could negatively affect our credit exposure, reserves, and relationships with key customers, and could reduce orders or increase the risk of delayed payments or defaults. We face intense competition from both established companies and newer entrants into the market, and our failure to compete effectively could cause our market share to decline, which could harm our reputation and have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. The footwear, apparel, and accessories industry is highly competitive and subject to rapidly changing consumer preferences. If we are unable to compete effectively, we could experience a decline in market share, reduced demand for our products, pricing pressure, or damage to our reputation, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Competition in our markets is influenced by factors such as Table of Contents 14 brand recognition, product innovation and performance, pricing, speed‑to‑market, marketing effectiveness, use of data analytics and AI , access to manufacturing capacity, and control of distribution channels. Our competitors include both established global brands and newer market entrants, including competitors whose broader product assortments and higher sales volumes may be more important to certain customers. We believe that the growth and visibility of our HOKA brand and UGG brand have attracted competitors specifically targeting the categories in which we operate. Barriers to entry have been reduced by access to offshore manufacturing and evolving technologies, allowing competitors to develop and scale products more quickly and at lower cost. Some of our competitors also have substantially greater financial, technological, manufacturing, marketing, and distribution resources than we do, as well as broader brand awareness, which may enable them to compete more effectively on price, accelerate product development, leverage advanced data analytics or AI , adapt to technological changes, and withstand periods of excess inventory or reduced consumer demand. As a result, we face ongoing competition for customer relationships and distribution channels, including competition for preferred access to key retail accounts, shelf space, and digital visibility. Consistent with these dynamics, we have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, pricing and promotional pressure across our brands and channels, particularly during periods of elevated industry inventory levels or inflationary pressure. Increased discounting or promotional activity by competitors may require us to reduce prices or increase promotions to remain competitive, negatively affecting our gross margin and results of operations, and could cause consumers to shift purchases to competing products. In addition, many of our key wholesale customers face intense competitive pressures, and deterioration in their financial condition could adversely affect their ability to do business with us. I f we are unsuccessful at managing inventory planning, forecasting, and global supply chain execution, we may be unable to accurately forecast our inventory and working capital requirements, which may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Like other companies in our industry, we have an extended design and manufacturing process, which involves product design, material purchases, inventory accumulation and the subsequent sale of the inventories, and accounts receivable collection. This cycle requires us to incur significant expenses relating to the design, manufacturing, and marketing of our products in advance of the realization of sales, and results in significant liquidity requirements and working capital fluctuations throughout our fiscal year, which may be amplified by supplier performance issues and broader supply chain constraints. As a result , these liquidity and working capital demands may limit our ability to adjust inventory levels and respond efficiently to changes in consumer demand, particularly during periods of macroeconomic uncertainty. Our forecasting processes rely on assumptions, data, and systems that may not accurately reflect future consumer or customer demand, or supply chain conditions, including manufacturing capacity, raw material availability, and logistics constraints. Further, variability and constraints within our global supply chain may drive higher inventory procurement positions that could negatively affect our working capital and gross margin as a result of selling excess quantities through close out channels. As a result, our inventory levels, working capital requirements, and results of operations may be adversely affected by a number of factors, including: • constraints or inefficiencies in transportation capacity, delivery timing, inventory flow, or production scheduling, which may contribute to uneven inventory receipts, elevated inventory levels, or delays in fulfilling de mand; • unfavorable or unexpected weather patterns that affect consumer demand for seasonally-driven products, particularly within our UGG brand, which may be intensified by the effects of climate change; • changes in consumer preferences, discretionary spending patterns, prevailing fashion trends, and pricing pressure that may require increased promotional activity to sell inventory; • macroeconomic conditions, including inflation, interest rate volatility, or global economic uncertainty, that may affect consumer purchasing behavior, supplier capacity, or logistics costs; and • market acceptance of our products and competing offerings, and variability in product availability. The evolution and expansion of our brands and product offerings have made our inventory management activities more challenging. For example, if we overestimate demand for any products or styles, we may be forced to increase promotional activity or adjust pricing to sell excess inventories, which would result in lower sales and reduced gross margin , and we may not be able to recover our investment in the development of new styles and product lines. On the other hand, if we underestimate demand, or if our independent manufacturing facilities are unable to supply Table of Contents 15 products in sufficient quantities or on a timely basis, we may experience inventory shortages that may prevent us from fulfilling customer orders or result in delays in shipments to customers. If that occurred, we could lose sales, our relationships with customers could be harmed, and our brand loyalty could be diminished. In either event, these factors could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. We rely upon a number of warehouse and distribution facilities to operate our business, and any damage to one of these facilities, or any disruptions caused by incorporating new facilities into our operations, could have a material adverse effect on our business. We rely upon a broad network of warehouses and distribution facilities to store, sort, package and distribute our products. Our distribution operations depend on the effective functioning of global transportation and logistics networks, including ports, carriers, and third-party service providers. Disruptions to these networks, including labor shortages or disputes, capacity constraints, fuel and freight cost volatility, routing inefficiencies, or infrastructure limitations could increase delivery times, delay inbound or outbound shipments, strain distribution capacity, increase fulfillment and other costs, and impair our ability to efficiently receive, store, and distribute products. In the US , we distribute products primarily through self-managed warehouses and DC s in Moreno Valley, California, and in Mooresville, Indiana , which feature a complex warehouse management system that enables us to efficiently pack products for direct shipment to our customers and consumers. We could face a significant disruption in our domestic warehouse and DC operations if our warehouse management system does not perform as anticipated or ceases to function for an extended period of time, which could occur due to damage to the facility, failure of software or equipment, cyber-security incidents, power outages or similar problems. Any significant disruption to our domestic warehouse or DC operations could a dversely affect our ability to fulfill customer orders . In addition, increased reliance on automation, data analytics, and system integrations within our warehouse operations, including to address outdated or no longer supported software, systems and equipment, may increase the risk of system failures, data inaccuracies, or operational disruptions if such systems are not implemented or maintained effectively, which could similarly have a material adverse effect on our business. Internationally, we distribute our products through warehouses and DC s managed by 3PL s in certain international locations. For example, we are currently transitioning certain international 3PL operations to a new partner. While we conduct diligence prior to entering into service agreements with 3PL s, we depend on these providers to operate their warehouses and DC s in a manner that meets our business and performance requirements, including with respect to data security and compliance with applicable data protection and privacy laws, and the provision of quality services on a timely basis at the prices we expect. If our 3PL s fail to manage these responsibilities, including during or following an operational transition, system cutover, or data migration, or if their operations are disrupted as a result of factors outside of their control, such as sanctions that could in the future be imposed by the US government, or broader disruptions or inefficiencies in global logistics and transportation networks, our distribution operations could face delays, reduced reliability, or increased costs. The loss of or disruption to the operations of any one or more of these facilities could materially and adversely affect our sales, business performance, and results of operations. Although we believe we possess adequate insurance to cover the potential effect of a disruption to the operations of these facilities, such insurance may not be sufficient to cover all of our potential losses and may not continue to be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all. We rely upon independent manufacturers for all of our production needs, and the failure of these manufacturers to manage these responsibilities would prevent us from filling customer orders, which would result in loss of sales and harm our relationships with customers. We rely upon independent manufacturers and their respective material suppliers for all of our production needs, the majority of which are located in Southeast Asia, predominantly in Vietnam and Indonesia , which exposes us to geographic concentration risk, including risks arising from regional economic, political, environmental, or operational conditions, and we do not have direct control over these manufacturers or their suppliers. We expect our independent manufacturers to finance the production of goods ordered, maintain manufacturing capacity, comply with our policies, and store finished goods in a safe location pending shipment. The ability of our independent manufacturers to meet these expectations may be adversely affected by liquidity constraints or limitations in their access to third-party financing arrangements supporting their supply chains or working capital needs, which could reduce available production capacity, delay shipments, or result in lost sales. Disruptions arising from these geographic concentrations, our limited control over independent manufacturers and their suppliers, or our manufacturers’ inability to meet these expectations could adversely affect our ability to manufacture products or fulfill customer orders, which could negatively affect our results of operations. Table of Contents 16 There can be no assurance of a long-term, uninterrupted supply of products from our independent manufacturers . Our dependence on a limited number of key manufacturing partners may increase our exposure to disruptions, pricing changes, or capacity constraints. While we have long-standing relationships with most of these manufacturers, they could terminate our engagement, seek to increase their prices, or extract other concessions from us, and we may not be able to timely engage a suitable alternative. If we are required to find alternative manufacturers, we could experience manufacturing delays, increased manufacturing costs, and substantial disruption to our business, any of which could negatively affect our results of operations. Interruptions in the supply of our products can also result from adverse events that impair our manufacturers’ operations. For example, we keep proprietary materials necessary to produce our products, such as shoe molds and other materials, in the custody of our independent manufacturers . If these independent manufacturers were to lose or damage these proprietary materials, we cannot be assured that the manufacturers would have adequate insurance to cover such loss or damage, and, in any event, the replacement of such materials would likely result in significant delays in the production of our products, which could result in a loss of sales and earnings. Our financial success is influenced by the success of our customers, and the loss of a key customer could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. Much of our financial success is related to the ability of our customers in the wholesale channel, including international distributors and retail partners, to effectively market and sell our brands to consumers. These relationships are typically governed by contractual arrangements. If a customer fails to meet contractual obligations, satisfy our expectations and standards , or experiences operational or financial difficulties, it may be challenging and time-consuming to identify and transition to an acceptable alternative. In addition, disputes under these arrangements could result in litigation, arbitration, settlement costs, or operational disruptions. We may also be adversely affected by our customers’ actions or omissions, including failures to comply with applicable laws, regulatory requirements, labor or employment standards, or our policies. Such conduct could harm our reputation, subject us to regulatory scrutiny or liability, disrupt our relationships with other customers and business partners, and adversely affect demand for our products. Transitioning away from an existing customer, whether due to performance or compliance concerns, may result in lost sales, significant transition costs, and operational disruption as we identify, onboard, and integrate replacement distribution or retail partners, and there can be no assurance that a replacement will generate comparable or improved results. We face the risk that key customers may not increase their business with us as anticipated, may significantly reduce purchases, or may terminate their relationships with us. However, no single customer accounted for 10.0% or more of our total net sales during fiscal year 2026 . The failure to increase sales to these customers could negatively affect our growth prospects, and any reduction or loss of their business could materially and adversely affect our net sales and results of operations, particularly if we are unable to offset such declines through our DTC channel. As of March 31, 2026 , one customer represents 18.5% of trade accounts receivable, net, which is generally unsecured and exposes us to collection risk that could affect our results of operations and liquidity . W e rely on customer purchase orders and delivery schedules for forecasting sales and results of operations. If customers postpone, cancel, reduce, or discontinue orders, we may fail to meet our forecasts. These risks may be exacerbated by structural changes in the retail industry including shifts in technology, consumer and wholesale partner purchasing behavior, economic conditions, and a shrinking retail footprint. The loss of a key customer, or a significant reduction in orders, could result in lower sales, excess inventory and related write-downs, and materially and adversely affect our financial condition or results of operations. In addition, a key customer may liquidate excess inventory through discounted channels, including unauthorized sellers, which could negatively impact brand perception and divert demand from our authorized distribution channels. We depend on qualified talent and, if we are unable to retain or hire executive officers, key employees, and skilled talent, we may not be able to achieve our strategic objectives, which could adversely affect our results of operations. To execute our growth plan, we must continue to attract and retain highly qualified talent, including executive officers and key employees. In addition, to develop new products and successfully operate and grow our key business processes, we rely on employees with specialized expertise across design, marketing, merchandising, sourcing, technology, operations, and support functions, including talent in areas such as data analytics, digital commerce, and supply chain management. Competition for executive officers, key employees, and skilled talent is intense within our industry, and we continue to experience upward pressure on compensation costs. Changes to our Table of Contents 17 office environment or work models may not meet employees’ expectations, and many of the companies with which we compete for talent have greater name recognition and financial resources than we have. Continued strength in our results may also increase the risk that our employees are targeted by competitors. If our overall employment proposition, including compensation, benefits, culture, work model, or career development opportunities, is not perceived as favorable relative to other employers, our ability to attract, hire, and retain qualified personnel could be adversely affected. We are committed to offering competitive compensation and benefits, which may increase our selling, general, and administrative ( SG&A ) expenses. Further, our domestic headquarters are located in Goleta, California, which may further limit our ability to attract qualified professionals. If we hire employees from competitors, their former employers may assert that we or these employees have breached legal obligations, resulting in a diversion of management time and resources. Prospective and existing employees also often consider the value of stock-based compensation when deciding whether to accept or remain in a position. Accordingly, volatility in our stock price may adversely affect our ability to recruit and retain qualified talent. Any inability to attract, retain, or motivate executive officers, key employees, or other skilled personnel could adversely affect our ability to achieve our long-term strategic objectives, harm our results of operations, and impair our ability to compete effectively. The continued service of our executive officers and key employees is particularly important, and the departure of such talent may disrupt our business or result in the depletion of significant institutional knowledge. Our executive officers and key employees are employed on an at-will basis, which means that they can terminate their employment with us at any time. The loss of one or more of our executive officers or other key employees or significant turnover in our senior management, and the often-extensive process of identifying and hiring other talent to fill those key positions, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. S heepskin and other raw materials are used to manufacture a significant portion of our products, and disruptions in the availability, pricing, or quality standards of these inputs could have a material adverse effect on our business. We purchase raw materials and components that are subject to supplier and geographic concentration, most significantly sheepskin, which is used in a substantial portion of our UGG brand products. Sh eepskin is in high demand and sourced primarily from Australia and processed largely by two tanneries in China capable of meeting our quality, volume, and animal welfare standards . This geographic and supplier concentration exposes us to supply disruption risk. We also rely on designated suppliers for certain other specialized raw materials, including sugarcane-derived EVA , used in certain components of our products. If suppliers of sheepskin, including tanneries involved in its processing, sugarcane-derived EVA , or other materials are unable to meet our quality, sustainability, or volume requirements, or if their operations are disrupted or cease, we may not be able to obtain adequate quantities of these materials or suitable substitutes on acceptable terms, or at all. Although alternative materials may be available for certain branded components, which may be limited, such alternatives would not include the same trademarks. As a result, supply disruptions could require product redesign or delayed production, increase costs, reduce inventory availability, result in loss of sales or increased returns, and harm our reputation. In addition, the raw materials used in the manufacturing of our products are subject to commodity price volatility, most significantly sheepskin. Although sheepskin pricing has been relatively stable in recent years, prices and availability may fluctuate due to changes in supply and demand, weather conditions, energy and logistics costs, labor disruptions, regulatory developments, disease incidence, the effects of climate change, and broader market dynamics. While we use contracts and other pricing arrangements to mitigate price volatility, prolonged increases in sheepskin costs or other key inputs could increase manufacturing expenses and negatively impact our gross margin , and we may be unable to offset such increases through pricing actions or changes in product mix. Evolving fashion trends, social expectations, and ethical considerations, including increased opposition to the use of animal-derived materials, as well as existing or potential legislation restricting the sale of such products in certain jurisdictions, could also reduce consumer demand for sheepskin products or limit our ability to sell them in key markets. Because sheepskin is integral to the UGG brand, adverse changes in consumer preferences, regulatory requirements, or sourcing standards applicable to sheepskin could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Table of Contents 18 We rely on technical innovation to compete in the market for our products, and if we fail to innovate effectively or in a timely manner, our competitive position and results of operations could be adversely affected. Our success relies in part on our continued innovation in both the materials we use and the design of our footwear. In particular, our HOKA brand maintains its competitiveness through continuous product innovation and timely introduction of new features and technologies that align with current and emerging consumer expectations, including our ability to bring such innovations to market ahead of or in line with competitors. Also, we continue to invest in research and development to increasingly incorporate recycled, renewable, regenerated, and certified/ natural materials ( preferred materials ) in our products as part of our sustainability efforts. We also increasingly use preferred synthetics, regenerated or synthetic cellulosic fibers, and plant fibers. Although we continue to refine our materials and develop new properties for specific applications, if we fail to introduce technical innovation in our products in a timely or commercially successful manner, or experience issues with the quality of our products or materials, consumer demand for our products could decline and we may experience reputational damage. In addition, if our competitors introduce superior or more cost-effective innovations, we may lose market share or be required to increase promotional activity to remain competitive. Further, as our brands transition to suppliers with preferred materials , we may be subject to increased costs or supply constraints, which could reduce our sales and profitability and have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Our investments in research and development and new materials may not result in commercially successful products or may not generate the expected return on investment, which could adversely affect our results of operations. We may not succeed in implementing our growth strategies, in which case we may not be able to take advantage of certain market opportunities and our competitive position and results of operations could be adversely affected. As part of our overall growth strategy, we seek to enhance the positioning of our brands, diversify our product offerings, extend our brands into complementary product categories and markets, expand geographically, and optimize our retail presence both in stores and online. Our future growth depends in part on our expansion efforts outside of the United States ( international growth strategy ). For example, we have opened UGG brand and HOKA brand retail locations in international markets through Company-owned stores and through third-party retailers . If we are unable to identify new retail locations with consumer traffic sufficient to support a profitable sales level or elevate our brand market positioning, our retail growth may be limited, and we may be unable to avoid losses or negative cash flows from these locations. In addition, investments in new or expanded retail locations may not generate expected returns and could result in impairments or reduced profitability. Furthermore, our future growth depends in part on our ability to effectively manage the profitability of our existing retail locations. For example, our failure to successfully identify and close underperforming stores in a timely manner could have a number of material adverse effects, such as impairments and a negative impact on our financial condition and results of operations. We also license the right to operate our brand retail stores to third parties through our partner retail program. All of the partner retail stores are operated in international markets . We provide training to support these stores and set and monitor operational standards. However, the quality of these store operations may decline due to the failure of these third parties to operate the stores in a manner consistent with our standards or our failure to adequately monitor these third parties, which could result in reduced sales and harm our brand image. As part of our international growth strategy , we may transition certain brands in certain geographies from a third- party distribution model to a direct distribution model or vice versa. Failure to effectively implement our growth strategies, including transitioning between distribution models or developing our business in international markets, or disappointing growth within existing markets, could negatively affect our sales growth rate. In addition, taking steps to implement our growth strategies could have a number of negative effects, including increasing our working capital needs, causing us to incur costs without corresponding benefits, and diverting management time and resources away from our existing business. Our growth initiatives may not be successful, may take longer than anticipated to achieve expected results, or may expose us to operational complexities that we are unable to effectively manage. Table of Contents 19 Increasing expectations from investors, regulators, and other key stakeholders with respect to our ESG practices may impose additional costs on us or expose us to additional risks. Investors, advocacy groups, customers, consumers, employees, regulators, and other stakeholders are increasingly scrutinizing companies’ ESG practices and disclosures, including the social and environmental impacts of their operations. We periodically communicate ESG initiatives, including through our annual Creating Change Report and may face heightened scrutiny, regulatory inquiries, or litigation regarding the accuracy, completeness, or consistency of such disclosures, including allegations of “greenwashing.” Our ESG disclosures address a broad range of topics, including human rights, governance, environmental compliance, sustainability, human capital management, supply chain practices, and diversity and inclusion. Despite our efforts, our ESG practices, the pace at which we implement related initiatives, or our disclosures may not meet evolving stakeholder expectations. Perceptions regarding our ESG priorities, whether viewed as over- or under-emphasized, could adversely affect customer demand, employee recruitment and retention, or investor relations, or lead to reputational harm, regulatory action, or litigation. In addition, developing ESG goals, metrics, and data collection processes is complex, costly, and subject to evolving standards, internal controls, and regulatory regimes, including ESG -related disclosure requirements of the SEC , European, and other regulators, such as those in California. Failure, or perceived failure, to achieve or accurately report progress against our ESG initiatives or adapt to changing regulatory requirements could increase compliance costs, damage our reputation, and negatively affect our business and results of operations. C limate change, natural disasters, public health issues, or other events beyond our control, as well as related regulations, have adversely affected, and could in the future adversely affect, our business. Natural disasters and other catastrophic events, including those associated with climate change and extreme weather conditions, may disrupt our operations, supply chain, international markets, and the global economy. Our business is subject to interruption from events such as extreme weather, power shortages, pandemic s, war, political instability, terrorism, and failures of infrastructure or communications systems. Although we maintain disaster and business continuity plans designed to support critical operations and information systems, these events could disrupt our operations, impair employee availability, damage facilities, interrupt supply chains, or compromise the integrity of our IT systems, which could materially increase costs, reduce sales, or otherwise adversely affect our business continuity. In addition, climate-related regulatory developments and evolving standards may require us to incur significant capital expenditures or other costs to enhance the resiliency of our infrastructure, comply with legal requirements, or implement mitigation measures. We may also experience increased costs for energy, transportation, raw materials, production, and insurance, including higher premiums or deductibles. Our insurance coverage may not be sufficient to cover all losses or may not remain available on acceptable terms. Further, severe weather events, health crises, or other widespread disruptions may reduce consumer demand, impair the ability of our manufacturers, third-party distributors, or other partners to operate effectively, or disrupt the supply of key raw materials, any of which could adversely affect our results of operations. We face risks associated with strategic acquisitions and divestitures, and our failure to successfully integrate any acquired business could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. As part of our overall strategy, we may periodically consider strategic acquisitions to expand our brands into complementary product categories and markets, or to acquire new brands, technologies, intellectual property, or other assets. Our ability to do so depends on our ability to identify and successfully pursue suitable acquisition opportunities. Such acquisitions involve numerous risks, challenges, and uncertainties, including the potential to: • expose us to risks inherent in entering into new markets or geographic regions; • lose significant customers or key personnel of the acquired business; • encounter difficulties integrating and managing acquired assets; • encounter difficulties marketing to new consumers or managing geographically dispersed operations; • divert management’s time and attention away from other aspects of our business operations; and • incur costs relating to potential acquisitions that we fail to consummate, which we may not recover. Table of Contents 20 Additionally, we may not be able to successfully integrate acquired businesses into our operations or achieve the expected benefits of such acquisitions. We may also face cannibalization of existing product sales by newly acquired products unless we successfully differentiate target consumers and increase our overall market share. Further, we may be required to issue equity securities to finance an acquisition, which would be dilutive to our stockholders, and equity securities may have rights or preferences senior to those of our existing stockholders. If we incur indebtedness to finance an acquisition, it will result in debt service costs, and we may be subject to covenants restricting our operations or liens encumbering our assets. As part of our overall strategy to allocate resources that best align with our long-term objectives, we may seek to sell one or more brands. For example, during fiscal year 2026 , we completed the phase out of the standalone operations of the Koolaburra brand and AHNU brand. Further, during fiscal year 2025 , we completed the sale of the Sanuk brand. These transactions involve financial and operational risks, including diverting management and employee time and attention from other aspects of our business, separating personnel and financial and other systems, impairments, and adversely affecting relationships with existing suppliers and customers. The process of completing any acquisitions or divestitures may be time-consuming, involve significant costs and expenses, and the expected benefits of such acquisitions or divestitures may not be realized. Our business, results of operations, and financial condition could be negatively impacted. In addition, we may overestimate the value of acquisition targets or fail to realize anticipated synergies, which could result in impairments or reduced returns on our investments. Risks Related to Our Global Business Strategy and Operations, and International Commerce Our reliance on independent manufacturers and suppliers located primarily in Southeast Asia exposes us to risks associated with unpredictable and evolving international trade policies, regulatory environments, and geopolitical conditions that could materially increase our costs, disrupt our global supply chain, and adversely affect our results of operations. The production of our finished goods is outsourced to independent manufacturers , the majority of which are in Southeast Asia. During fiscal year 2026 , production of our finished goods was predominantly from Vietnam and Indonesia, while less than 5% was from China or any other individual country. As a result, we are exposed to geographic concentration risk arising from regional and global economic conditions, changes in diplomatic and trade relationships (including the imposition of new or increased tariffs), political and social instability, armed conflict, disease outbreaks, natural disasters, and other regulatory, environmental, and geopolitical developments. The majority of raw materials and components used by our independent manufacturers are sourced from designated suppliers , and tariffs, duties, or other trade restrictions may be imposed, modified, or expanded with limited notice. These measures could require us or our independent manufacturers to seek alternative sourcing options that may not be available in sufficient quantities, at acceptable quality levels, or in a timely manner. Evolving international trade dynamics could materially increase our cost of goods sold, disrupt logistics or inventory flows, adversely affect product pricing and demand, and reduce our gross margin . Customs authorities may also challenge our tariff classifications or treatment of certain products, resulting in additional costs or penalties. In addition, certain tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act have been invalidated by a recent US Supreme Court decision, and additional tariffs may be invalidated, modified, or refunded in the future. As a result, we may face uncertainty regarding the treatment of tariff-related costs, including the potential recovery or refund of tariff amounts previously paid or partially reflected in selective pricing actions or cost-sharing arrangements. These and other judicial, regulatory, or trade policy developments could increase compliance complexity, create cost volatility, impair our ability to plan sourcing, pricing, and inventory strategies, and result in disputes, claims, unrecoverable costs, and reputational harm, regardless of the ultimate outcome. In addition to trade-related risks, our international operations and independent manufacturers are subject to regulatory, operational, and reputational risks. Although we require compliance with environmental, labor, ethical, health, safety, and other business standards and conduct periodic audits, we do not directly control the practices of our independent manufacturers or suppliers. A s we continue to diversify within Southeast Asia, monitoring compliance across a broader supplier base may be more complex. Any n oncompliance could result in product Table of Contents 21 recalls, regulatory penalties, seizure or forfeiture of goods, reputational harm, termination of supplier relationships, violations of US or international trade laws, increased costs, supply chain disruption, or the loss of import privileges. Our international operations and independent manufacturers are also exposed to additional risks, including: • logistics, infrastructure, transportation, and distribution constraints, including raw material availability, and cost volatility related to fuel costs, labor disputes, inflation, port congestion, or geopolitical or climate‑related disruptions; • restrictions on fund repatriation or foreign currency volatility; • local labor practices, workforce availability, or holidays; • counterfeit, unauthorized or misclassified materials, or product integrity or compliance risks; • health-related disruptions, including disease outbreaks; and • adverse consumer perceptions of goods sourced from certain countries, including as a result of geopolitical or social conditions. Although we pursue mitigation strategies, including selective pricing actions and cost-sharing arrangements with independent manufacturers , these measures may not fully offset trade-related and regulatory cost increases. If such strategies are ineffective, it could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Our sales in international markets are subject to a variety of legal, regulatory, political, cultural, and economic risks that may adversely affect our results of operations. Our ability to capitalize on growth in new international markets and to maintain the current level of operations in our existing international markets is subject to risks associated with international operations that could adversely affect our results of operations. These risks include: • foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations between the US dollar and primarily the currencies of Europe, Asia, Canada, and Latin America affect the prices at which products are sold to international consumers and our reported results; • limitations on our ability to move currency out of international markets or repatriate earnings; • burdens of complying with a variety of international laws and regulations, which may change unexpectedly, and the interpretation and application of such laws and regulations; • legal costs related to defending allegations of non-compliance with international laws; • inability to import products into a foreign country; • difficulties associated with promoting and marketing products in unfamiliar markets and cultures; • political or economic uncertainty or instability, which may disrupt the global economy and reduce consumer spending, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, particularly for our HOKA and UGG brands; • anti-American sentiment in international markets in which we operate; • changes in diplomatic and trade relationships between the US and other countries; • general economic fluctuations in international markets; and • challenges associated with local laws, regulations, and business practices, including employment, tax, and data privacy requirements. Global geopolitical developments, including armed conflicts, escalating global tensions, and related disruptions , have resulted in, and could continue to result in, instability and heightened volatility in global markets . We conduct business outside the US , which exposes us to foreign currency exchange rate risk, and could have a negative effect on our results of operations. We operate on a global basis, with 41.7% of our total net sales for the year ended March 31, 2026 , generated from operations outside the US . As we continue to expand our international operations, our sales and expenditures in foreign currencies are expected to become increasingly material and subject to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. A significant portion of our international operating expenses are paid in local currencies, and our international distributors typically sell our products in local currency, which affects the price to international consumers. Many of our subsidiaries operate with their local currency as their functional currency. Foreign currency fluctuations, which can be exacerbated by volatility in global credit markets, may change the US dollar value of our purchases or sales and, when converted to US dollars, could materially affect our net sales, gross margin , and results of operations. When the US dollar strengthens relative to foreign currencies, our sales and profits Table of Contents 22 denominated in foreign currencies are reduced when converted into US dollars and our margins may be negatively affected. We routinely utilize foreign currency forward contracts or other derivative instruments for the amounts we expect to purchase and sell in foreign currencies to mitigate exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. As we continue to expand international operations and increase purchases and sales in foreign currencies, we may utilize additional derivative instruments to hedge our risk. Our hedging strategies depend on our forecasts of sales, expenses, and cash flows, which are inherently subject to inaccuracies. Further, such strategies may not fully offset the effects of exchange rate fluctuations and may introduce additional volatility into our results of operations. Foreign currency exchange rate hedges, transactions, remeasurements, or translations could materially affect our consolidated financial statements . Risks Related to Technology, Data Security and Privacy A security breach or disruption to our IT systems could materially harm our business, disrupt our operations, or result in unauthorized disclosure of sensitive information, which could damage our relationships, expose us to litigation or regulatory proceedings, or harm our reputation, any of which could materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations. We store and transmit sensitive information, including personal information of customers, consumers, and employees, payment card information, and proprietary operational, financial, and strategic data. Unauthorized access to, loss, misuse, or disclosure of such information could result in reputational harm, litigation, regulatory investigations, significant remediation costs and substantial losses. Our operations also depend on the continued performance of internal information systems and third-party technology providers, including systems utilizing data analytics and AI , to prevent unauthorized access and to respond quickly and effectively to data security incidents. Cybersecurity threats continue to evolve in frequency and sophistication, and our reliance on interconnected systems, cloud-based platforms, and third-party service providers increases the risk that a security incident affecting us or these parties could disrupt our operations. Although we invest in security controls and monitoring, these measures may not prevent all incidents or ensure timely detection. A cyber-attack, data security incident, or system disruption could materially and adversely affect our business if: • critical systems become inoperable or require significant time or cost to restore; • employees are unable to perform their duties or communicate effectively with third parties; • sensitive or confidential information is lost, misused, or disclosed without authorization; • business operations, including order placement, fulfillment, or reporting, are disrupted; • significant, unplanned investments in technology, security remediation, or recovery are required; or • we incur additional liabilities, costs, claims, or regulatory exposure. Any such event could result in reputational harm, loss of customer trust, strained relationships with partners and suppliers, litigation, fines, penalties, or regulatory actions under domestic and international data protection and privacy laws and could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, or results of operations. If we are found to have violated laws concerning the privacy and security of consumers’ or other individuals’ personal information, we could be subject to civil or criminal penalties, which could increase our liabilities and harm our reputation or our business. There are a number of laws protecting the privacy and security of personal information, as well as increased scrutiny by regulators, such as the Federal Trade Commission, and state attorneys general focused on our industry. Such laws include the California Consumer Privacy Act and California Privacy Rights Act, the EU ’s General Data Protection Regulation and member state directives, Canada’s Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act, and China’s Personal Information Protection Law, and limit how we may collect, use, share and store personal information, and they impose obligations to protect that information. We may also be subject to new or evolving data privacy and security laws and regulations. If we, or any of our service providers who have access to the personal data for which we are responsible, are found to be in violation of the privacy or security requirements of applicable data protection laws, we could be subject to civil or criminal penalties, which could increase our liabilities, harm our reputation, and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. In addition, these laws may provide for private rights of action, statutory damages, or enhanced regulatory enforcement, which could increase our exposure to litigation and liability. Although we utilize a variety of Table of Contents 23 measures to secure the data that we control, even compliant entities can experience security breaches or have inadvertent failures despite employing reasonable practices and safeguards. If the technology-based systems that give our customers the ability to shop or interact with us online do not function effectively, our results of operations, as well as our ability to grow our e-commerce websites globally or to retain our customer base, could be materially and adversely affected. Many consumers shop with us through Company-owned e-commerce websites and third-party digital marketplaces, where expectations and competitive pressures, including delivery speed, shipping costs, return policies, and mobile functionality, continue to increase. Consumers increasingly use mobile platforms, social media, and digital channels to shop, comparison shop, and engage with brands, and we rely on these channels to attract and retain customers. Our success may depend on the continued effectiveness of third‑party digital platforms and marketplaces, which may change algorithms, policies, fee structures, data access, or content moderation practices, including through increased use of AI ‑driven tools, in ways that reduce traffic, increase customer acquisition costs, or otherwise diminish the effectiveness of our marketing and sales efforts. These platforms may also become subject to regulatory actions that limit our ability to operate on them or require costly operational or technological changes. Failure to provide effective, reliable, secure, and user-friendly digital platforms that offer competitive delivery options and meet evolving consumer expectations or to scale our technical infrastructure to support increased demand, could disrupt operations, reduce sales, harm our reputation, and adversely affect our results of operations. Additional risks include channel conflict with Company-owned and third-party brick and mortar stores, challenges in replicating the in-store experience online, and liability for online content. If we are unsuccessful at improving our operational and IT systems and our efforts do not result in the anticipated benefits to us or result in unanticipated disruption to our business, our results of operations could be adversely affected. We continually strive to improve and automate our operational and IT systems and processes to enhance the efficiency and competitiveness of our business. Transitioning to these new or upgraded processes and systems requires significant capital investments and personnel resources. Implementation is also highly dependent on the coordination of numerous employees, contractors and software and system providers. While these efforts have resulted in improvements to our operational systems, we expect to continue to incur expenses to implement additional improvements and upgrades to our systems. Many of these expenditures have been and may continue to be incurred in advance of realizing any direct benefits to our business. Moreover, our investments in operational and IT systems may not generate the expected return on investment or may take longer than anticipated to deliver benefits. We cannot guarantee that we will be successful in improving our operational systems, adapting to changes in technology, including the effective use of data analytics, and other emerging technologies, or that these efforts will result in anticipated benefits. We may also experience difficulties in implementing or operating our new or upgraded operational or IT systems, including ineffective or inefficient operations, significant system failures, outages, delayed implementation and loss of system availability, which could lead to increased implementation and operational costs, loss or corruption of data, delayed shipments, excess inventory and interruptions of operations resulting in lost sales or profits. If our operational or IT system upgrades, improvements and associated implementation efforts are not successful, our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected, and our business may become less competitive. Risks related to our use of artificial intelligence technologies could adversely affect our business, reputation, results of operations, or financial condition. We and our third-party service providers are increasingly using AI , data analytics, and machine learning technologies across our business, including operational and IT systems, digital platforms, and certain business processes. While these technologies may improve efficiency and decision-making, they may not perform as intended and may produce inaccurate, incomplete, or otherwise unreliable outputs, including due to deficiencies in the data used to develop or operate such tools. Our use of AI , and the use of AI by third parties on which we rely, may introduce additional risks related to the integrity, security, and governance of data used by such technologies, including the potential for unauthorized use, processing, or exposure of sensitive information in ways that may not be fully addressed by our existing data protection controls, as well as operational disruptions resulting from reliance on AI -driven outputs or systems that do not perform as intended. In addition, the use of AI technologies in the creation or development of content, designs, or other intellectual property may present uncertainty regarding ownership, copyright-ability, or potential infringement of third-party intellectual property rights. The legal and regulatory landscape governing AI is rapidly Table of Contents 24 evolving, and compliance with new or changing requirements may require additional resources or operational changes. If we are unable to effectively manage these risks, our business and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. Risks Related to Our Legal, Compliance, and Regulatory Environment Failure to adequately protect our intellectual property rights could reduce sales and adversely affect the value of our brands. Our business could be significantly harmed if we are not able to protect our intellectual property rights. We believe our competitive position is attributable to the value of our trademarks, patents, trade dress, trade names, trade secrets, copyrights, and other intellectual property rights. As a result of the success of our brands, we have become a target of counterfeiting and product imitation. Although we actively pursue legal and other actions against those who infringe on our intellectual property rights, we cannot guarantee that these actions will be adequate to protect our brands in the future, particularly because some countries’ laws do not protect these rights to the same extent as US laws. If we fail to adequately protect our intellectual property rights, it may allow competitors to sell products that are similar to and directly competitive with our products, or we could lose opportunities to sell our products to consumers who instead purchase counterfeit or imitation products, which could reduce sales of our products and adversely affect the value of our brands. In addition, any intellectual property lawsuits in which we are involved could require significant time and expense and distract management’s attention from operating our business, which may negatively affect our business and results of operations. In addition to enforcing our intellectual property rights, we may need to defend claims against us related to our intellectual property rights. For example, we have faced claims that the word “ugg” is a generic term. Such a claim was successful in Australia, but similar claims have been rejected by courts in the US , China, the Republic of Türkiye, and the Netherlands. Any court decision or settlement that invalidates or limits trademark protection of our brands, which allows a third-party to continue to sell products similar to our products or to sell counterfeit products, could lead to intensified competition and a reduction in our sales and adversely affect the value of our brands. Our revolving credit facility agreements expose us to certain risks. From time to time, we have financed our liquidity needs in part through borrowings under revolving credit facilities. We may be unable to renew, extend, or replace our revolving credit facilities on acceptable terms, or at all, when they mature, which could reduce our available liquidity. Our ability to borrow under our revolving credit facilities may be limited if the lenders believe there has been a material adverse change to our business. In addition, our revolving credit facility agreements contain a number of customary financial covenants and restrictions, which may limit our ability to engage in transactions that would otherwise be in our best interests, or otherwise respond to changing business and economic conditions, and may therefore have a material effect on our business. Failure to comply with any of these covenants could result in a default, allowing our lenders to accelerate the timing of payments, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operations, financial condition, and liquidity. In addition, in some cases, a default under one revolving credit facility could result in a cross-default under other facilities. Certain of our revolving credit facility agreements bear interest at a rate that varies by currency. Any increases in interest rates applicable to our borrowings would increase our cost of borrowing, which would reduce our net income and liquidity. The tax laws applicable to our business are complex, and changes in tax laws or audits by taxing authorities could increase our worldwide tax rate and may subject us to additional tax liabilities, which may materially affect our financial position and results of operations . Changes in global tax laws, regulations, and treaties could materially affect our business. These tax laws require significant judgment and specialized expertise to evaluate and estimate our worldwide provision for income taxes. Changes in these tax laws (and our interpretation thereof), could result in a materially higher tax expense or a higher effective tax rate on our worldwide earnings. For example, global tax authorities may take differing positions in interpreting the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development’s (commonly known as OECD) guidance, including with respect to Pillar Two model rules, which could modify existing tax principles and increase our tax liabilities; in addition, the enactment of H.R. 1, also known as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, or similar future legislation, may also affect applicable tax rules and interpretations. These changes and potential other tax law changes could increase our income tax liability or adversely affect our long-term effective tax rates and net income . Refer to Note 5, “Income Taxes,” of our consolidated financial statements in Part IV within this Annual Report for further information regarding tax law changes. Table of Contents 25 Additionally, we are subject to tax audits, which may result in the assessment of additional taxes. Although we believe our tax estimates are reasonable and our tax filings are prepared in accordance with all applicable tax laws, the final determination with respect to any tax audits, and related litigation, could be materially different from our estimates or from our historical tax provisions and accruals, especially as there is continued economic and political pressure to increase tax revenue in jurisdictions in which we operate. The results of a tax audit or other tax proceeding could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or cash flows during the periods for which that determination is made and may require a restatement of prior financial reports. In addition, changes in our estimates related to uncertain tax positions could result in adjustments to our tax expense and effective tax rate in future periods. Risks Related to Our Common Stock Our common stock price has been volatile, which could result in losses for stockholders. The trading price of our common stock has been and may continue to be volatile. The trading price of our common stock could be affected by a number of factors, including: • changes in expectations regarding our future financial performance and results of operations; • changes in estimates and opinions of our performance by securities analysts and other market participants, or our failure to meet such estimates; • changes in our stockholder base or public actions taken by investors, including activism; • market research and opinions published by securities analysts and other market participants, and the response to such publications; • third-party data sources estimating our intra-quarter financial performance; • quarterly fluctuations in our sales, margins, expenses, financial condition, and results of operations; • the financial stability of our customers, manufacturers, suppliers, and competitors; • announcements made by us or our competitors regarding product launches or developments; • announcements by our competitors, or other companies in our industry, regarding changes in financial condition, results of operations or financial outlook; • legal proceedings, regulatory actions, and legislative changes impacting us, our competitors, or the industry in which we operate; • the declaration of stock or cash dividends, stock repurchases, or stock or reverse stock splits; • consumer confidence and discretionary spending levels; • broad market fluctuations in trading volume and market price of publicly traded securities; • general market, geopolitical, and macroeconomic conditions, including evolving international trade dynamics and recessionary conditions; and • trading activity in our stock by short-term or technical investors, including algorithmic trading, index funds, or other market participants whose investment decisions are not based on our fundamentals. In addition, the stock market in general has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations. Accordingly, the price of our common stock is volatile and any investment in our stock is subject to risk of loss. These broad market and industry factors and other general macroeconomic conditions unrelated to our financial performance may also affect our common stock price, including in ways that are disproportionate to or not directly related to our operating performance. Anti-takeover provisions contained in our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (Certificate) and Amended and Restated Bylaws ( Bylaws ), as well as provisions of Delaware law, could impair or delay a takeover attempt. Our C ertificate and Bylaws contain provisions that could have the effect of rendering more difficult hostile takeovers, change-in-control transactions, or changes in our Board or management. As a Delaware corporation, we are also subject to provisions of Delaware law, including Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which may delay, deter, or prevent a change-in-control transaction. Any provision of Delaware law, our Certificate, or our Bylaws that has the effect of rendering more difficult, delaying, deterring, or preventing a change-in-control transaction could limit the opportunity for stockholders to receive a premium for their shares of our common stock, and could affect the price that investors are willing to pay for our common stock.

CYBERSECURITY Cybersecurity Risk Management and Strategy We maintain a comprehensive cybersecurity program, recognizing the critical importance of safeguarding our operations, employees, customers, and other business partners from cybersecurity risks, which continue to evolve in frequency and sophistication. These risks include, among others, operational, financial, reputational, legal, and regulatory risks. As a part of this program, we have developed an incident response plan ( IRP ) designed to quickly respond to, mitigate, and recover from cybersecurity incidents. The IRP includes procedures for incident detection and reporting, initial assessment, containment, eradication, recovery, post-incident activities, and continuous improvement. We also integrate cybersecurity risk management into our overall risk management framework to ensure that cybersecurity risks are considered in all aspects of our business . Our management team works closely with our Chief Digital & Data Officer ( CDDO ) and Chief Information Security Officer ( CISO ) , and is designed to align our cybersecurity efforts with our business objectives and operational needs. Key components of our cybersecurity approach include, among other things: • establishing a dedicated action team, led by our CDDO and CISO , to oversee and manage cybersecurity risks; • implementing a comprehensive cybersecurity risk assessment process and strategy based on industry standards and established frameworks such as the National Institute of Standards and Technology ( NIST ); • implementing a third-party and vendor risk management program, which includes evaluating risk levels such that third parties and vendors with access to our systems or data are subject to cybersecurity onboarding and review, along with cybersecurity and data privacy audits and ongoing risk monitoring and mitigation efforts; • conducting penetration tests and security maturity assessments throughout the year; • periodically engaging independent third-party assessors to audit our cybersecurity and information system programs to evaluate their effectiveness; • implementing industry-standard technologies and processes to protect our system and data and to help detect potential unauthorized activity; • maintaining access controls to safeguard data and systems; • providing annual trainings to employees on responsible information security, data security and cybersecurity practices including appropriate action to take against cybersecurity threats; • conducting periodic phishing simulations to our employees; • engaging in cybersecurity incident tabletop exercises and scenario planning exercises; • maintaining a cybersecurity and information security risk insurance policy, which insures for data incidents or breaches and other technology related exposures; and • periodically reviewing and updating our IRP , privacy policy, and other relevant policies/procedures. We continuously evaluate and enhance our cybersecurity risk management practices in response to evolving threats and business needs . In the three-year period ended March 31, 2026 , our business, results of operations and financial condition have not been materially affected by risks from cybersecurity threats, including as a result of any prior cybersecurity incidents experienced by either us or third parties, but we cannot provide assurance that they will not be materially affected in the future by such risks or any future material incidents. Refer to Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors - Risks Related to Technology, Data Security and Privacy” within this Annual Report for further information. Table of Contents 28 Cybersecurity Governance Our Board has delegated to the Audit Committee primary responsibility for oversight of enterprise risk assessment and risk management, including risks related to cybersecurity and information security. Our CDDO and CISO , who head our cybersecurity and information security initiatives, provide quarterly updates to the Audit Committee , and annual updates to the full Board . These updates cover various topics, such as efforts to enhance our cybersecurity posture, operational and incident metrics, mitigation actions, and key performance indicators such as cybersecurity maturity, program health, and audit and compliance activities. The Audit Committee reviews and monitors these updates as part of its oversight of our cybersecurity risk management program. The Audit Committee also engages in regular dialogue with management, including our CDDO and CISO , regarding cybersecurity and technology risks and related initiatives. In addition, the Audit Committee reviews relevant internal audit findings and key metrics used to assess our capabilities to manage cybersecurity, information security, and technology risks. In addition to these regular updates, significant cybersecurity incidents and updates are escalated on an as-needed basis in accordance with our IRP, and the Audit Committee discusses with management the nature and potential impact of material cybersecurity incidents on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Our CDDO and CISO have extensive experience in cybersecurity. Our CDDO has served in his role since September 2024. He has over 15 years of experience in digital transformations, enterprise technology, artificial intelligence, and data management. Our CISO has served in various roles in information technology for over 25 years, including 15 years in information security. He holds a B.S. in Cybersecurity and Information Assurance, along with industry certifications including ISACA’s Certified in Risk and Information Systems Control, ISACA’s Certified Information Security Manager, and ISC2’s Certified Information Systems Security Professional certifications. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES Corporate Headquarters. We own our 14-acre corporate headquarters located in Goleta, California. Warehouses and DC s. We have a warehouse and DC located in Moreno Valley, California, which began operations during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2015 . In October 2021, we began operations in a second US warehouse and DC l ocated in Mooresville, Indiana . I n October 2023, we began operations in a third US warehouse an d DC located in Mooresville, Indiana . We continue to optimize and invest in our operations at these locations. Regional Offices. We have offices in Austria, Belgium, Canada, China, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Macau, the Netherlands, Switzerland, the UK , the US , and Vietnam, to perform a variety of functions, which include supervising and overseeing the quality and manufacturing standards of our products, design, product development, distribution, customer service, regional sales, operations, marketing, IT , administration, and logistics. Retail Stores. As of March 31, 2026 , we have 49 US retail stores and 154 international retail stores, including in Austria, Belgium, Canada, China, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Switzerland, and the UK . Other than our corporate headquarters, we lease our warehouses and DC s, retail stores and regional offices from unrelated parties. With the exception of retail stores in our DTC channel, costs associated with our warehouses and DC s and regional offices are attributable to multiple reportable operating segments and are not allocated; but instead reflected in unallocated enterprise and shared brand expenses in our results of operations. R efer to Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” for further discussion and results of operations for our reportable operating segments and Note 13, “Reportable Operating Segments,” of our consolidated financial statements in Part IV within this Annual Report for further information on unallocated enterprise and shared brand expenses. We believe our properties are adequate for our current needs and that suitable additional or substitute space will be available to accommodate the foreseeable expansion of our business and operations.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS As part of our global policing program to protect our intellectual property rights, from time to time, we file lawsuits in various jurisdictions asserting claims for alleged acts of trademark counterfeiting, trademark infringement, patent infringement, trade dress infringement, and trademark dilution. We generally have multiple actions such as these pending at any given point in time. These actions may result in seizure of counterfeit merchandise, out-of-court settlements with defendants, or other outcomes. In addition, from time to time, we are subject to claims in which opposing parties will raise, either as affirmative defenses or as counterclaims, the invalidity or unenforceability of certain of our intellectual property rights, including allegations that the UGG brand trademark registrations and design patents are invalid or unenforceable. Furthermore, we are aware of many instances throughout the world in which a third-party is using our brand trademarks within its internet domain name. From time to time, we are involved in various legal proceedings, disputes, and other claims arising in the ordinary course of business, including employment, intellectual property, product liability, and breach of contract claims . Although the results of these ordinary course matters cannot be predicted with certainty, we currently believe that the final outcome of these ordinary course matters will not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows. However, regardless of the merit of the claims raised or the outcome, these ordinary course matters can have an adverse impact on us as a result of legal costs, diversion of management’s time and resources, and other factors.

Our common stock is traded on the New York Stock Exchange ( NYSE ) under the symbol “DECK”. Holders of Record. As of May 1, 2026 , we had 27 stockholders of record based on the records of our transfer agent, which does not include beneficial owners of our common stock whose shares are held in the names of various securities brokers, dealers, and registered clearing agencies. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities. We did not sell any equity securities that were not registered under the Securities Act during the year ended March 31, 2026 . Stock Performance Graph Below is a graph comparing the percentage change in the cumulative total return on our common stock against the cumulative total return of the Standard & Poor’s 500 Stock Index ( S&P 500 Index ) and the S&P 500 Apparel, Accessories & Luxury Goods Index for the five fiscal-year periods commencing March 3 1, 2021 , and ended March 31, 2026 . We use the S&P 500 Index as we believe it is the benchmark most relevant to measure our performance. Total return assumes reinvestment of dividends, although we have not declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock since our inception . The data represented in the graph assumes one hundred dollars invested in our common stock and in each of the referenced indices on March 31, 2021 . The stock performance shown on the below graph is not necessarily indicative of future performance. In providing the information in the graph, we are not intending to make or endorse any prediction as to our future stock performance.

Any future decision to declare cash dividends will be at the discretion of our Board and will depend on a number of factors, including our financial condition, operating results, liquidity position, capital allocation strategy, and other factors our Board considers to be relevant at the time. Our current revolving credit agreements allow us to declare and pay cash dividends, as long as we do not exceed certain leverage ratios, and no event of default has occurred . W e are in compliance with these leverage ratios as of March 31, 2026 , and no event of default has occurred. W e currently do not anticipate declaring or paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

Certain statements made in this section constitute “forward-looking statements,” which are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties. Our actual results of operations may differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including those set forth in the section titled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” within this Annual Report . Unless otherwise indicated, all figures herein are expressed in thousands, except per share data . References to “ domestic ” refer to the US . Overview We are a global leader in designing, marketing, and distributing innovative footwear, apparel, and accessories developed for both everyday casual lifestyle use and high-performance activities. We market our products primarily under three proprietary brands : HOKA , UGG , and Teva . Refer to the section below entitled “Reportable Operating Segments Overview” for information regarding the phase out of standalone operations for the Koolaburra brand and AHNU brand, and the prior sale of the Sanuk brand. Our brands compete across the fashion and casual lifestyle, performance, running, and outdoor markets. We believe our products are distinctive and appeal to a broad demographic. Our brands sell our products through quality domestic and international retailers and international distributors in our wholesale channel, and directly to global consumers through our DTC channel, which is comprised of an e‑commerce and retail store presence. We seek to differentiate our brands and products by offering diverse lines that emphasize fashion, performance, authenticity, functionality, quality, and comfort, and products tailored to a variety of activities, seasons, and demographic groups. Independent third-party contractors manufacture all of our products.

Table of Contents 33 • SG&A expenses increased 11.0% to $1,894,823 . • Income from operations increased 7.1% to $1,262,903 . • Income from operations as a percentage of net sales ( operating margin ) decreased 50 basis points to 23.1% . • Diluted earnings per share increased 10.9% to $7.02 per share. Trends And Uncertainties Impacting Our Business And Industry Our business and industry are subject to several important trends and uncertainties, including the following: Macroeconomic and Geopolitical Factors • Macroeconomic factors, including inflationary pressures, increased tariffs, rising supply chain costs, high interest rates, foreign currency exchange rate volatility, escalating global conflicts, changes in discretionary spending, and recession risks, are creating a complex and challenging environment for our business and industry that may continue to pressure our results of operations, including our gross margin . For example, prolonged or escalating conflicts in the Middle East could disrupt our supply chain and increase energy, transportation, and commodity costs, as well as cause shipping delays. While these factors did not materially impact our results of operations during the current period , they could negatively affect us in future periods. • We are exposed to risks from evolving trade policies, including higher tariffs and restrictions affecting goods imported from certain regions where we have a concentration of sourcing and manufacturing . Recent judicial, regulatory, and administrative developments regarding tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act and other authorities have increased uncertainty related to both our future duty costs and potential recovery of previously paid duties. The US Customs and Border Protection have announced a phased process for submitting refund requests; however, the availability, timing, and amount of any refunds remain uncertain. As of March 31, 2026, we have not recognized any amounts related to potential tariff refunds or other recoveries. We continue to monitor developments and pursue mitigation strategies, including selective pricing actions, i nventory and sourcing management, supplier diversification, and negotiating cost-sharing arrangements; however, we may be unable to offset tariff-related cost impacts, which could materially and adversely affect our gross margin and demand for our products. Brand and Omnichannel Strategy • We are focused on increasing global consumer awareness, cultural relevance, and adoption of our brands, which has contributed positively to our results of operations. Our global brand growth strategy seeks to drive adoption through product innovation and marketing investments across geographies and channels , while enhancing the customer experience through category expansion and loyalty-driven engagement. • We continue to manage marketplace inventory through product segmentation and differentiation . During the current period , promotional activity slightly increased compared to exceptionally low levels in the prior period ; however, we continued to achieve high levels of full-price sell through by aligning product assortments with marketplace demand. These efforts contributed to largely maintaining our gross margin compared to the prior period , even as the retail environment became more promotional. We may not realize similar gross margin benefits in our fi scal year ending March 31, 2027 ( next fiscal year ) due to various factors, including the macroeconomic and geopolitical factors discussed above and the potential impact from our pricing strategies. • Our long-term strategy is to grow our DTC channel to represent a larger portion of our total net sales by differentiating the consumer experience relative to the wholesale channel and driving consumer acquisition and retention. We are investing in e-commerce platform upgrades, data analytics, consumer experience initiatives, and selective global retail store expansion. We expect growth in our DTC channel’s net sales to continue to positively impact our gross margin ; h owever, as we also seek to expand distribution with wholesale partners to drive brand awareness and Table of Contents 34 market share, our wholesale channel may represent a larger portion of our net sales in certain periods, which could pressure gross margin in those periods. • We are pursuing growth strategies for the HOKA brand and UGG brand to grow international sales to represent a larger portion of our total net sales . We continue to selectively expand our HOKA brand presence through additional wholesale partner locations and targeted DTC channel retail store expansion . We are also investing in regions that provide influential market presence to build brand awareness , including through the launch of our US HOKA brand loyalty program during fiscal year 2026. W e expect to continue investing in the UGG brand and HOKA brand global loyalty programs . • W e continue to take actions to reposition the Teva brand, including refocusing certain wholesale channel distribution toward outdoor and premium retail partners and emphasizing brand messaging around its outdoor-adventure heritage. Our efforts to reposition the Teva brand and our future results of operations remain uncertain. In particular, macroeconomic pressure on value‑oriented domestic wholesale consumers may continue to adversely affect Teva brand performance. Supply Chain • To support our growth, we c ontinue to invest in our global distribution network, including our warehouses and DC s, as well as 3PL s. We also continue to diversify our independent manufacturers and the regions in which they operate; however, we maintain a significant concentration of sourcing and manufacturing in Southeast Asia . In addition, w e are currently transitioning one of our international 3PL s to a new partner, which may create temporary operational risks . We expect to continue upgrading our global distribution network to continue meeting customer and consumer demand. Reportable Operating Segments Overview As of March 31, 2026 , our three reportable operating segments include the worldwide operations of the HOKA brand, UGG brand, and Other brands . HOKA Brand. The HOKA brand is an authentic premium line of year-round performance footwear, which offers enhanced cushioning and inherent stability with minimal weight. Originally designed for ultra-runners, the brand now appeals to world champions, tastemakers, and everyday athletes. Expansion into additional product categories, elevated marketing campaigns, and investments in brand experiences, coupled with strategic marketplace presence have fueled both domestic and international sales growth of the HOKA brand, which has quickly become a leading brand within run and outdoor specialty wholesale accounts and is growing across its global marketplace. The HOKA brand’s product line includes running, trail, hiking, fitness, and lifestyle footwear offerings, as well as apparel and accessories. We believe demand for HOKA brand products will continue to be driven by the following: • Leading performance product innovation, a deep connection to culture and community, category expansion into apparel and lifestyle, and key franchise management, including consumer led product flow and strategic product lifecycle cadence. • Increased global brand awareness and new consumer adoption through enhanced global marketing activations and online consumer acquisition, including building a connected ecosystem through social media platforms, e-commerce, and retail. • Thoughtful and strategic distribution choices, allowing the HOKA brand access and introduction to a broader, more diverse, consumer base. • Strategic investment in scaling lifestyle footwear, apparel, and accessories. UGG Bran d. The UGG brand is one of the most iconic and recognized brands in our industry, which highlights our successful track record of building niche brands into consumer-focused fashion lifestyle market leaders. Born on the California coast to warm surfers after they caught and rode the waves, we create iconic products and experiences that are made for people to feel comfort, softness, warmth, and confidence. With loyal consumers around the world, Table of Contents 35 innovative products, and elevated storytelling, the UGG brand has proven to be a highly resilient consumer-focused line of premium footwear, apparel, and accessories that has driven both domestic and international sales growth with year-round product offerings that appeal to a growing global audience and a broad demographic. We believe demand for UGG brand products will continue to be driven by the following: • Successful acquisition of a diverse global consumer base, and focusing on key markets, through strategic marketing activations and collaborations that resonate with a fashionable consumer. • High consumer brand loyalty due to elevated brand experiences and consistent delivery of crafted; purposefully built and luxuriously comfortable footwear, apparel, and accessories. • Diversification of our footwear product offerings, such as our spring and summer lines, as well as expanded category offerings for Men’s products such as the slip-on shoe and sneaker category, and more iconic fashion product for our Classics line, including reimagining existing iconic styles into new categories. • Continued expansion of our apparel and accessories businesses. Other Brands . Other brands consist primarily of the Teva brand . The Teva brand’s products are built for a range of outdoor pursuits and include a variety of footwear options, from classic sandals and shoes to boots. The Other brands reportable operating segment includes financial results of the Koolaburra brand and AHNU brand, for which the phase out of standalone operations were completed during the third and fourth quarters of fiscal year 2026 , as well as financial results for the former Sanuk brand during the prior period through the sale date of August 15, 2024 ( Sanuk Brand Sale Date ). Refer to the section titled “Reportable Operating Segments” in Note 1, “General,” of our consolidated financial statements in Part IV within this Annual Report for further information. Use of Non- GAAP Financial Measures We disclose supplemental financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ( US GAAP ); however, throughout this Annual Report , including within our consolidated financial statements, we provide certain financial information on a non-GAAP basis ( non-GAAP financial measures ). We provide non-GAAP financial measures and information that may assist investors in understanding our results of operations and assessing our prospects for future performance, which primarily consist of certain constant currency measures and total segment-level financial information. We believe presenting certain financial and operating measures on a constant currency basis is important as it excludes the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations that are not indicative of our core results of operations and are largely outside of our control. We calculate our constant currency non-GAAP financial measures for current period financial information, such as total net sales using the foreign currency exchange rates that were in effect during the previous comparable period , excluding the effects of foreign currency exchange rate hedges and remeasurements in the consolidated financial statements . We also report comparable DTC sales on a constant currency basis for DTC operations that were open throughout the current and prior reporting periods, and we may adjust prior reporting periods to conform to current period accounting policies. The information presented on a constant currency basis, as we present such information, may not necessarily be comparable to similarly titled information presented by other companies, and may not be appropriate measures for comparing our performance relative to other companies. Constant currency measures should not be considered in isolation, or as an alternative to US dollar measures that reflect current period foreign currency exchange rates or to other financial or operating measures presented in accordance with US GAAP . We believe presenting certain segment-level operating measures, including total segment income from operations and total segment SG&A expenses, is important because it allows for an evaluation of operating performance and cost structure across brands. Our segment-level non-GAAP financial measures represent the results of operations and expenses for our individual reportable operating segments and differ from our consolidated results because they exclude certain unallocated enterprise and shared brand expenses. Our segment-level non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation, or as an alternative to consolidated financial and operating measures presented in accordance with US GAAP . Table of Contents 36 Seasonality A significant part of the UGG brand’s business has historically been seasonal, with the highest percentage of net sales occurring in the third fiscal quarter , which has contributed to variation in results of operations from quarter to quarter. However, as the HOKA brand’s net sales have increased as a percentage of our aggregate net sales, the impacts of seasonality have been partially mitigated as HOKA brand sales are generally more evenly distributed throughout the fiscal year, although quarterly results may fluctuate based on the timing of product launches. This trend is expected to continue. In addition, we have further mitigated the impacts of seasonality by diversifying and expanding our year-round product offerings across our brands. Results of Operations Year Ended March 31, 2026 , Compared to Year Ended March 31, 2025 .
