Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I find the actual financial results for Garmin's first quarter?
The specific financial results, including revenue, profitability, and segment performance for the first fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025, are detailed in the press release attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this 8-K filing. You should review this exhibit for comprehensive information.

Understanding the revenue and growth trends in each of these segments is crucial for assessing the company's overall health and future prospects.
Does this 8-K filing contain forward-looking guidance from Garmin?
While the 8-K itself does not contain guidance, the accompanying press release (Exhibit 99.1) often includes management's commentary on the current quarter's results and may provide updated financial guidance or outlook for the remainder of the fiscal year. Investors should carefully read the press release for any forward-looking statements or projections.
What is the significance of the information being 'furnished' rather than 'filed'?
The distinction means that the information provided in Item 2.02 and Exhibit 99.1 is primarily for disclosure purposes and is not subject to the same level of liability under Section 18 of the Exchange Act as if it were officially 'filed.' This is a standard practice for earnings releases. It also means this information won't be automatically incorporated into other Garmin SEC filings unless explicitly referenced.
