Positive Impact 4 of 5 guidance Written later

Callaway Golf reported first-quarter 2026 net sales of $687.5 million, up 9.2% from a year earlier, and GAAP diluted earnings per share from continuing operations of $0.38, up from $0.33. The company raised its full-year 2026 net sales and Adjusted EBITDA outlook, which matters to shareholders because it signals higher expected results for the year, though the filing notes some first-quarter timing benefits.
