| The Company and Basis of Presentation | The Company and Basis of Presentation The Company Callaway Golf Company (together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries, referred to as “we,” “our,” “us,” “the Company,” or “Callaway” unless otherwise specified), a Delaware corporation, is a premium golf equipment, gear and apparel company that designs, manufactures and sells high-performance golf clubs, golf balls, apparel, bags, and other accessories through our family of brand names, which include Callaway Golf, Odyssey, TravisMathew, and OGIO. Our products and brands are reported under two operating segments: Golf Equipment, which includes the operations of our golf clubs and golf balls business under the Callaway Golf and Odyssey brand names; and Apparel, Gear and Other (formerly, “Active Lifestyle”), which includes the operations of our soft goods business marketed under the Callaway, TravisMathew, and OGIO brand names. Effective as of the fourth quarter of 2025, we renamed our “Active Lifestyle” segment to “Apparel, Gear and Other.” This change did not impact the composition of the segment or previously reported financial results. Divestitures of Topgolf and Jack Wolfskin In 2025, we undertook a strategic realignment to focus on our core Golf Equipment and complementary soft goods businesses, which resulted in the sale of our Jack Wolfskin and Topgolf businesses. On May 31, 2025, we completed the sale of 100% of the outstanding equity interests of Callaway Germany Holdco GmbH, which owned the Jack Wolfskin business, to a subsidiary of ANTA Sports Products Limited. Following this, and in connection with our previously announced intent to separate from the Topgolf business in September 2024, on November 17, 2025, we entered into a definitive agreement to sell a 60% ownership interest in our Topgolf and Toptracer businesses to private equity funds managed by Leonard Green & Partners, L.P. The transaction closed effective January 1, 2026, at which time we retained a 40% ownership interest in Topgolf, which will be accounted for under the equity method. As a result of these divestitures, the operating results of Jack Wolfskin and Topgolf are reported in discontinued operations for all periods presented in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. See Note 4 for additional information. Company Name and Ticker Symbol Change In connection with the completion of the Topgolf transaction, effective January 15, 2026, we changed our corporate name from “Topgolf Callaway Brands Corp.” back to “Callaway Golf Company” and, on January 16, 2026, we updated our New York Stock Exchange ticker symbol from “MODG” to “CALY.” Basis of Presentation We have prepared the accompanying consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). We translate the financial statements of our foreign subsidiaries using end-of-period exchange rates for assets and liabilities and average exchange rates during each reporting period for results of operations. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated during consolidation. Unless otherwise specified, disclosures in these consolidated financial statements reflect continuing operations only. Prior period financial information related to discontinued operations has been reclassified and separately presented in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes to conform to the current period presentation. See Note 4 for further information regarding our discontinued operations. Fiscal Year End Our annual financial results are reported on a calendar year basis.
