Description: BC Brunswick November 07, 2025
Brunswick Corporation (NYSE: BC) designs, manufactures, and markets a broad portfolio of recreational marine products across North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific, operating through four distinct segments: Propulsion, Engine Parts & Accessories (P&A), Navico Group, and Boat.
The Propulsion segment, anchored by the Mercury brand family, supplies outboard, sterndrive, and in-board engines plus related controls and propellers to boat builders and retail dealers. In FY 2023 the segment generated roughly $4.2 billion in revenue, representing about 50 % of total sales, and maintained an operating margin near 13 %, reflecting strong pricing power in a market where outboard engine share is estimated at ~30 % globally.
Engine P&A delivers aftermarket parts, consumables, and lubricants for both marine and non-marine applications, while the Navico Group offers marine electronics, sensors, and navigation systems under brands such as Simrad and Lowrance. The Boat segment sells a diversified range of vessels-from Sea Ray and Bayliner sport boats to Boston Whaler offshore models-contributing approximately $2.8 billion in FY 2023 revenue; boat demand is highly sensitive to discretionary consumer spending, interest-rate levels, and the health of the housing market, which together drive the sector’s cyclicality.
Key economic drivers include U.S. consumer confidence (currently at 107.5), mortgage rate trends (average 6.8 % for 30-year fixed), and the ongoing supply-chain bottlenecks affecting aluminum and composite materials, all of which can materially impact Brunswick’s order backlog and margin outlook.
