Item 2.02.                      Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On January 24, 2013, Brunswick Corporation (“Brunswick”) announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and full-year 2012. The news release issued by Brunswick announcing its fourth quarter and full-year 2012 earnings is incorporated herein by reference and is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

In the news release, Brunswick uses non-GAAP financial measures. For purposes of SEC Regulation G, a “non-GAAP financial measure” is a numerical measure of a registrant’s historical or future financial performance, financial position or cash flows that excludes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding amounts, that are included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the statements of operations, balance sheets or statements of cash flows of the issuer; or includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of including amounts, that are excluded from the most directly comparable measure so calculated and presented. Operating and statistical measures and certain ratios and other statistical measures are not non-GAAP financial measures. GAAP refers to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.

Brunswick has used certain of the financial measures that are included in the news release for several years, both in presenting its results to shareholders and the investment community and in its internal evaluation and management of its businesses. Brunswick’s management believes that these measures (including those that are non-GAAP financial measures) and the information they provide are useful to investors because they permit investors to view Brunswick’s performance using the same tools that Brunswick uses and to better evaluate Brunswick’s ongoing business performance. Brunswick’s management believes that the non-GAAP financial measure "free cash flow" is useful to investors because it is an indication of cash flow that may be available to fund investments in future growth initiatives. Brunswick defines free cash flow as cash flow from operating and investing activities (excluding cash provided by or used for acquisitions, investments, transfers to restricted cash and purchases or sales of marketable securities). The measure "diluted earnings (loss) per common share, as adjusted" is also believed to be useful to investors because it represents a measure of Brunswick’s earnings, without the impact of restructuring, exit and impairment charges, loss on early extinguishment of debt and special tax items.  Brunswick defines diluted earnings (loss) per common share, as adjusted, as diluted earnings (loss) per common share, excluding the earnings per share impact for restructuring, exit and impairment charges, as well as the loss on early extinguishment of debt and special tax items.  Additionally, Brunswick’s management believes that the measure “net debt” is useful to investors because it is an indication of Brunswick’s ability to repay its outstanding debt using its current cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities.  Brunswick defines net debt as the sum of short-term and long-term debt, less cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments in marketable securities and long-term investments in marketable securities as presented in its condensed consolidated balance sheets. Finally, Brunswick’s management believes that the measure "adjusted operating earnings (loss)" is useful to investors because it provides a necessary and important perspective on Brunswick's operating performance and improves comparability of performance against prior periods. Brunswick defines adjusted operating earnings (loss) as operating earnings (loss), excluding the earnings impact for restructuring, exit and impairment charges.
 
The information in this report and the exhibit attached hereto shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, or incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

Brunswick Reports Fourth Quarter and Full-Year Results
Full-Year Results Reflect Strong Growth in Operating Earnings and Earnings Per Share
Total Debt Reduced by $121 Million in 2012
2013 Guidance: EPS from Continuing Operations, as adjusted, of $2.20 to $2.45


LAKE FOREST, Ill., Jan. 24, 2013 -- Brunswick Corporation (NYSE: BC) today reported results for the fourth quarter and full-year of 2012. On Jan. 3, 2013, the Company announced its intention to exit its Hatteras and CABO boat businesses. As a result, these businesses are now reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented in this release and all figures reflect continuing operations only, unless otherwise noted.

2012 Full-Year Highlights:
Diluted earnings per common share, as adjusted, of $2.09; a $0.73 increase versus the same period of 2011. On a GAAP basis, $1.59 per diluted share, a $0.61 increase from prior year.
Net sales increased one percent from prior year.
Gross margins increased 150 basis points versus 2011.
Adjusted operating earnings increased by $54.9 million from prior year. On a GAAP basis, operating earnings increased by $50.4 million.
Including discontinued operations, diluted earnings per common share, as adjusted, of $1.77. On a GAAP basis, $0.54 per diluted share.
Total debt reduced by $121 million during 2012; lowest debt level since 1997.





A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures is provided in the supplemental information sections of the consolidated financial statements accompanying this release.

“In 2012, we successfully executed our business strategy despite challenging global economic conditions,” said Brunswick Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Dustan E. McCoy. “Our results in 2012 represent the third consecutive year of strong improvements in operating earnings and net earnings. Adjusted operating earnings and diluted earnings per common share, as adjusted, increased by 23 percent and 54 percent, respectively, for the year.

“In addition, increased earnings contributed to the continued generation of solid free cash flow. As a result, we made significant progress in improving our balance sheet by reducing debt balances by $121 million, which contributed to a $14 million reduction in interest expense.

“Over the past several years, our entire organization has done an excellent job of executing our business plan and transforming our businesses to promote growth and identify operating efficiencies. The 2012 results and the strategic actions taken during the year have strengthened our overall financial profile, providing a solid platform for further improvements in future financial results,” McCoy said.

2012 Full-Year Results
For the year ended Dec. 31, 2012, the Company reported net sales of $3,717.6 million, up from $3,670.0 million a year earlier. For the year, operating earnings were $264.1 million, which included $25.8 million of restructuring, exit and impairment charges. In 2011, the Company reported operating earnings of $213.7 million, which included $21.3 million of restructuring, exit and impairment charges.

For 2012, the Company reported net earnings of $147.4 million, or $1.59 per diluted share, compared with net earnings of $90.6 million, or $0.98 per diluted share, for 2011. The diluted earnings per share for 2012 included restructuring, exit and impairment charges of $0.28 per diluted share, losses on early extinguishment of debt of $0.18 per diluted share and a $0.04 per diluted share charge from special tax items. The earnings per diluted share for 2011 included $0.24 per diluted share of restructuring, exit and impairment charges, $0.21 per diluted share of losses on early extinguishment of debt and a $0.07 per diluted share benefit from special tax items.






Fourth Quarter Highlights:        
Diluted earnings per common share, as adjusted, of $0.02; a $0.28 increase versus the same period of 2011. On a GAAP basis, a net loss of $0.18 per diluted share, a $0.10 improvement from the prior year period.
Net sales increased 9 percent from prior year.
Gross margins increased 170 basis points versus fourth quarter 2011.
Adjusted operating earnings increased by $26.7 million from prior year. On a GAAP basis, operating earnings increased by $20.4 million.

Fourth Quarter Results
For the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company reported net sales of $829.8 million, up from $761.5 million a year earlier. For the quarter, the Company reported operating earnings of $7.0 million, which included $10.5 million of restructuring, exit and impairment charges. In the fourth quarter of 2011, the Company had an operating loss of $13.4 million, which included $4.2 million of restructuring, exit and impairment charges.

For the fourth quarter of 2012, Brunswick reported a net loss of $16.1 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $25.4 million, or $0.28 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2011. The diluted earnings per share for the fourth quarter of 2012 included $0.11 per diluted share of restructuring, exit and impairment charges, a $0.05 per diluted share loss on early extinguishment of debt, and a $0.04 per diluted share charge from special tax items. The diluted earnings per share for the fourth quarter of 2011 included $0.04 per diluted share of restructuring, exit and impairment charges, a $0.03 per diluted share loss on early extinguishment of debt and a $0.05 per diluted share benefit from special tax items.

Review of Cash Flow and Balance Sheet
Cash and marketable securities totaled $428.7 million at the end of 2012, down $79.1 million from year-end 2011 levels. This decrease primarily reflects the impact of cash used for the retirement of debt, partially offset by $64.1 million of positive free cash flow, including cash used by discontinued operations.

Net debt (defined as total debt, less cash and marketable securities) at the end of 2012 was $143.1 million, a decrease of $41.9 million from year-end 2011 levels. The decrease in net debt





reflects a $121.0 million reduction in debt levels, partially offset by a decrease in cash and marketable securities.

Marine Engine Segment
The Marine Engine segment, consisting of the Mercury Marine Group, including the marine parts and accessories businesses, reported net sales of $404.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2012, up 12 percent from $359.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2011. International sales, which represented 44 percent of total segment sales in the quarter, increased by 5 percent. For the quarter, the Marine Engine segment reported operating earnings of $16.5 million, including restructuring charges of $1.2 million. This compares with operating earnings of $7.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2011, which included restructuring charges of $2.8 million.

Sales in the quarter were higher in each of the segment's major product categories. Higher sales and engine production, cost reduction activities, as well as lower variable compensation expense and a decrease in restructuring charges contributed to the increase in operating earnings in the fourth quarter of 2012. Partially offsetting these factors was the effect of increased investments for long-term growth.

Boat Segment
The Boat segment is comprised of the Brunswick Boat Group, and includes 16 boat brands. The Boat segment reported net sales of $206.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2012, an increase of 17 percent compared with $177.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2011. International sales, which represented 41 percent of total segment sales in the quarter, increased by 25 percent during the period. For the fourth quarter of 2012, the Boat segment reported an operating loss of $33.4 million, including restructuring, exit and impairment charges of $8.9 million. This compares with an operating loss of $28.0 million, which included a restructuring gain of $0.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2011.

The Boat segment's wholesale shipments were up strongly versus the prior year quarter. The increase in wholesale shipments reflected continued growth in demand for aluminum and U.S. outboard-powered fiberglass products, which was partially offset by ongoing weakness in global large fiberglass inboard/sterndrive and European fiberglass outboard boat products.






The increase in operating losses resulted from higher restructuring and impairment charges. The operating improvement, excluding restructuring and impairment charges, reflects higher sales, net of greater investments for long-term growth and an unfavorable change in product mix.

Fitness Segment
The Fitness segment is comprised of the Life Fitness Division, which designs, manufactures, and sells Life Fitness and Hammer Strength fitness equipment. Fitness segment sales in the fourth quarter of 2012 totaled $183.6 million, up 2 percent from $180.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2011. International sales, which represented 47 percent of total segment sales in the quarter, increased by 7 percent. For the quarter, the Fitness segment reported operating earnings of $36.4 million. This compares with operating earnings of $28.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2011.

The increase in sales for Life Fitness reflected solid growth to domestic health club customers and net gains in international markets, which included continued sales weakness in Europe. The increase in operating earnings in the fourth quarter of 2012 was the result of higher sales, lower warranty and variable compensation expenses and improved operating efficiencies, when compared to 2011.

Bowling & Billiards Segment
The Bowling & Billiards segment is comprised of Brunswick retail bowling centers, bowling equipment and products, and billiards tables and accessories. Segment sales in the fourth quarter of 2012 totaled $85.3 million, up 5 percent compared with $80.9 million in the prior year's fourth quarter. International sales, which represented 21 percent of total segment sales in the quarter, increased by 5 percent. For the quarter, the segment reported operating earnings of $8.5 million, including restructuring charges of $0.4 million. This compares with operating earnings of $4.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2011, which included restructuring charges of $1.6 million.

Revenue growth in the quarter was a function of higher sales in bowling products and an increase in U.S. equivalent retail center sales, partially offset by operating fewer centers. The increase in operating earnings in the fourth quarter of 2012 was the result of higher revenues, improved operating efficiencies and lower restructuring charges, when compared with 2011.






Outlook
“In 2013, we are planning a continuation of the sales and earnings growth achieved by the Company for the past three years,” McCoy said. “Our plans are based on global economic conditions in 2013 that are generally comparable to 2012, with weakness continuing in Europe.

“In the global marine sector, we expect to benefit in 2013 from the continuing uneven recovery in the U.S. powerboat market. We plan for our outboard boat and engine products to generate solid growth as they successfully compete in this improving market, as well as our global parts and accessories businesses, as they serve a stable population of boats in use. We do, however, assume that weak market conditions will continue to challenge the large fiberglass boat category, which will affect both fiberglass boat and sterndrive engine production. Positive health and wellness trends, combined with exciting new products, have positioned our fitness business to deliver excellent results, and our bowling business should further leverage its competitive advantages in an evolving market.

“Against this background, we are targeting a 3 percent to 5 percent revenue growth rate in 2013, driven by the strength of our global brands and contributions from our growth initiatives.

“We are also planning to maintain the strong gross margins achieved in 2012, while exploring opportunities to further expand these margins. Our organic growth platform will benefit from increased investments in capital projects and research and development programs, along with the SG&A to support them. In addition, despite these higher spending levels, we plan to generate positive free cash flow and execute against our ongoing strategic financial objective of further lowering debt levels, thereby reducing interest expense.

“After taking all of these factors into consideration, we expect our 2013 diluted earnings per common share, excluding restructuring, exit and impairment charges, debt extinguishment losses and special tax items, to be in the range of $2.20 to $2.45,” McCoy concluded.
