From the latest earnings call

Updated

  • CEO Clif Pemble said Garmin was working to fill a backlog for Circa and Fenix products as it entered the holiday quarter.
  • Pemble said higher memory costs would affect margins as Garmin replaces lower-cost inventory, and he expects gross margin to return to its historical range in 2027.

Total pay is as the Summary Compensation Table states it; actually paid revalues the year’s share awards at its end, as the SEC’s pay-versus-performance rule asks. $100 invested is what $100 in the company’s shares at the start of the earliest year shown was worth at each year’s end. Ownership is the proxy’s own table: the directors and officers as a group, and every holder of 5% or more. Read the proxy statement
