Athleisure brand Fila has posted higher sales and profit for the last fiscal year, driven by the strong performance of its US golf subsidiary.

The company’s consolidated revenue rose 6.5 per cent to US$2.9 billion in FY24, while operating profit soared 18.9 per cent to $245 million.

The results were mainly driven by the US golf subsidiary – Acushnet Holdings – where sales rose 7.8 per cent. Sustained demand in the US and the success of Titleist golf balls and clubs contributed to the growth of the business.

The Fila division posted a 2.2 per cent revenue increase, benefiting from a diversified business model, including joint ventures and licensing agreements.

“Strong cash flows from our core businesses, including Acushnet and our strategic joint ventures, allow us to execute disciplined capital allocation strategies that drive sustainable growth and profitability,” commented Ho Yeon (Aaron) Lee, CFO of South Korean-headquartered Fila Holdings.

The company has set a target of up to $340 million for shareholder returns over the next three years, bringing the cumulative amount to $544 million from 2022 to 2027. This marks a $136 million increase from the previously stated target.
