About this update from American Outdoor Brands, Inc.

COLUMBIA, Mo., March 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- American Outdoor Brands, Inc.

In fact, Caldwell® was a bright spot within our Shooting Sports category, which declined 15% year over year, largely due to continued softness in aiming solution products – a trend we are seeing across the broader market.
