fell 14.8% in the morning session after the company reported fourth-quarter results and provided a full-year EPS forecast that missed Wall Street’s estimates.

Management said that “results were below our guidance, primarily as a result of more cautious and inconsistent spending on high-priced ticket items in our Coolers & Equipment category.” Overall, this was a poor quarter for YETI.
