      The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared by Callaway Golf Company (the “Company”) pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted. These consolidated condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These consolidated condensed financial statements, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods and dates presented. Interim operating results are not necessarily indicative of operating results for the full year.

      The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates and assumptions.

      The Company accounts for its stock-based employee compensation plans using the recognition and measurement principles (intrinsic value method) of Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related interpretations. The Company accounts for its stock-based non-employee compensation plans using SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.” All employee stock-option awards granted during the period were granted with an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant and no compensation cost is reflected in net income for those awards. For the three months ended March 31, 2005, the Company recorded compensation expense of $1,479,000 as a result of restricted stock awards granted in 2004 to employees and professional endorsers of the Company. No compensation expense was recorded for stock-based awards during the three months ended March 31, 2004. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share, as if the Company had applied the fair value-based recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” in measuring stock-based employee compensation expense:

      The pro forma amounts reflected above may not be representative of future disclosures since the estimated fair value of stock options is amortized to expense as the options vest and additional options may be granted in future years. The fair value of employee stock options was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:

      The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. Because the Company’s employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimates, in management’s opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of grants under the Company’s employee stock-based compensation plans.

      Inventories are summarized below (in thousands):

      The Company accounts for its goodwill and other intangible assets using SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” Under SFAS No. 142, the Company’s goodwill and certain intangible assets are not

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

(Unaudited)

amortized throughout the period, but are subject to an annual impairment test. The following sets forth the intangible assets by major asset class (in thousands):

      Changes in goodwill during the three months ended March 31, 2005 were due to foreign currency fluctuations.

      The Company’s credit facility, which is scheduled to expire on November 5, 2009, provides for a revolving line of credit from Bank of America, N.A. and certain other lenders (“the Line of Credit”). The Line of Credit provides for revolving loans of up to $250,000,000 (with the possible expansion of the Line of Credit to $300,000,000 upon the satisfaction of certain conditions and the agreement of the lenders). Actual borrowing availability under the Line of Credit is effectively limited by the financial covenants set forth in the agreement governing the Line of Credit. At March 31, 2005, the maximum amount that could be borrowed under the Line of Credit was approximately $141,300,000 and of that amount, the Company had $59,500,000 outstanding and Letters of Credit issued of $1,700,000.

      Under the Line of Credit, the Company is required to pay certain fees, including an unused commitment fee equal to 17.5 to 35.0 basis points per annum of the unused commitment amount, with the exact amount determined based upon the Company’s Consolidated Leverage Ratio and trailing four quarters earnings before income taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) (each as defined in the agreement governing the Line of Credit). Outstanding borrowings under the Line of Credit accrue interest at the Company’s election, based upon the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio and trailing four quarters EBITDA, at (i) the higher of (a) the Federal Funds Rate plus 50.0 basis points or (b) Bank of America’s prime rate, and in either case, plus a margin of 00.0 to 75.0 basis points or (ii) the Eurodollar Rate (as defined in the agreement governing the Line of Credit) plus a margin of 75.0 to 200.0 basis points. The Company has agreed that repayment of amounts under the Line of Credit will be guaranteed by certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and will be secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and guarantor subsidiaries. The collateral

(other than 65% of the stock of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries) could be released upon the satisfaction of certain financial conditions.

      The agreement governing the Line of Credit requires the Company to maintain certain financial covenants, including a maximum leverage ratio, a minimum asset coverage ratio, a maximum capitalization ratio, a minimum interest coverage ratio and a minimum consolidated EBITDA. The agreement also includes certain other restrictions, including restrictions limiting additional indebtedness, dividends, stock repurchases, transactions with affiliates, capital expenditures, asset sales, acquisitions, mergers, liens and encumbrances and other restrictions. Additionally, the agreement contains other provisions, including affirmative covenants, representations and warranties and events of default. As of March 31, 2005, the Line of Credit was amended to provide that the covenant to maintain a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio did not apply to the first quarter of 2005. As of March 31, 2005, the Company was in compliance with the covenants and the terms of the Line of Credit agreement.

      The total origination fees incurred in connection with the Line of Credit were $1,263,000 and are being amortized into interest expense over five years (the term of the Line of Credit agreement). The unamortized origination fees were $1,158,000 as of March 31, 2005 and have been included in other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

      The Company has a stated two-year warranty policy for its golf clubs, although the Company’s historical practice has been to honor warranty claims well after the two-year stated warranty period. The Company’s policy is to accrue the estimated cost of warranty coverage at the time the sale is recorded. In estimating its future warranty obligations the Company considers various relevant factors, including the Company’s stated warranty policies and practices, the historical frequency of claims, and the cost to replace or repair its products under warranty. The following table provides a reconciliation of the activity related to the Company’s reserve for warranty expense (in thousands):

      A reconciliation of the weighted average shares used in the basic and diluted earnings per common share computations for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 is presented below (in thousands):

CALLAWAY GOLF COMPANY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

(Unaudited)

      Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. Options with an exercise price in excess of the average market value of the Company’s common stock during the period have been excluded from the calculation as their effect would be antidilutive. For the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, options outstanding totaling 10,382,000 and 4,711,000 shares, respectively, were excluded from the calculations, as their effect would have been antidilutive.

      The Company has studied the impact of the one-time favorable foreign dividend provision enacted on October 22, 2004 as part of the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004, and has no plans at this time to repatriate earnings of its foreign subsidiaries pursuant to the one-time dividend provision provided by the act.

      The Company is required to file federal and state tax returns in the United States and various other tax returns in foreign jurisdictions. The preparation of these tax returns requires the Company to interpret the applicable tax laws and regulations in effect in such jurisdictions, which could affect the amount of tax paid by the Company. The Company, in consultation with its tax advisors, bases its tax returns on interpretations that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The tax returns, however, are subject to routine reviews by the various taxing authorities in the jurisdictions in which the Company files its returns. As part of these reviews, a taxing authority may disagree with respect to the interpretations the Company used to calculate its tax liability and therefore require the Company to pay additional taxes. As required under applicable accounting rules, the Company therefore accrues an amount for its estimate of additional tax liability the Company could incur as a result of the ultimate resolution of disagreements with the various taxing authorities. The Company believes that the tax contingency accrual is adequate to cover any such additional tax liability. The tax contingency accrual is recorded as a component of the Company’s net income taxes payable/receivable balance, which the Company reviews and updates over time as more definitive information becomes available from taxing authorities, completion of tax audits or upon occurrence of other events.

      In conjunction with the Company’s program of enforcing its proprietary rights, the Company has initiated or may initiate actions against alleged infringers under the intellectual property laws of various countries, including, for example, the U.S. Lanham Act, the U.S. Patent Act, and other pertinent laws. Defendants in these actions may, among other things, contest the validity and/or the enforceability of some of the Company’s patents and/or trademarks. Others may assert counterclaims against the Company. Historically, these matters individually and in the aggregate have not had a material adverse effect upon the financial position or results of operations of the Company. It is possible, however, that in the future one or more defenses or claims asserted by defendants in one or more of those actions may succeed, resulting in the loss of all or part of the rights under one or more patents, loss of a trademark, a monetary award against the Company or some other material loss to the Company. One or more of these results could adversely affect the Company’s overall ability to protect its product designs and ultimately limit its future success in the marketplace.

      In addition, the Company from time to time receives information claiming that products sold by the Company infringe or may infringe patent or other intellectual property rights of third parties. It is possible that one or more claims of potential infringement could lead to litigation, the need to obtain licenses, the need to

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

alter a product to avoid infringement, a settlement or judgment, or some other action or material loss by the Company.

      In the fall of 1999 the Company adopted a unilateral sales policy called the “New Product Introduction Policy” (“NPIP”). The NPIP sets forth the terms on which the Company chooses to do business with its customers with respect to the introduction of new products. The NPIP has been the subject of several legal challenges. Currently pending cases, described below, include Lundsford v. Callaway Golf, Case No. 2001-24-IV, pending in Tennessee state court (“Lundsford I”); Foulston v. Callaway Golf, Case No. 02C3607, pending in Kansas state court; Murray v. Callaway Golf Sales Company, Case No. 3:04CV274-H, pending in the United States District Court for the Western District of North Carolina; and Lundsford v. Callaway Golf, Civil Action No. 3:04-cv-442, pending in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Tennessee (“Lundsford II”). An adverse resolution of the NPIP cases could have a significant adverse effect upon the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial position.

      Lundsford I was filed on April 6, 2001, and seeks to assert a putative class action by plaintiff on behalf of himself and on behalf of consumers in Tennessee and Kansas who purchased select Callaway Golf products covered by the NPIP on or after March 30, 2000. Plaintiff asserts violations of Tennessee and Kansas antitrust and consumer protection laws and is seeking damages, restitution and punitive damages. The court has not made any determination that the case may proceed in the form of a class action. In light of the subsequently filed Lundsford II case, the parties agreed to stay Lundsford I and to dismiss it without prejudice once the federal court proceedings in Lundsford II are underway. Subsequent to this agreement, plaintiff moved to reactivate Lundsford I and that motion is currently pending.

      In Foulston, filed on November 4, 2002, plaintiff seeks to assert an alleged class action on behalf of Kansas consumers who purchased Callaway Golf products covered by the NPIP and seeks damages and restitution for the alleged class under Kansas law. The trial court in Foulston stayed the case in light of Lundsford I. The Foulston court has not made any determination that the case may proceed in the form of a class action.

      The complaint in Murray was filed on May 14, 2004, alleging that a retail golf business was damaged by the alleged refusal of Callaway Golf Sales Company to sell certain products after the store violated the NPIP, and by the failure to permit plaintiff to sell Callaway Golf products on the internet. The proprietor seeks compensatory and punitive damages associated with the failure of his retail operation. Callaway Golf removed the case to the United States District Court for the Western District of North Carolina, and has answered the complaint denying liability. The parties are currently engaged in discovery, and a trial date in December 2005 has been set by the court.

      Lundsford II was filed on September 28, 2004 and the complaint asserts that the NPIP constitutes an unlawful resale price agreement and an attempt to monopolize golf club sales prohibited by federal antitrust law. The complaint also alleges a violation of the state antitrust laws of Tennessee, Kansas, South Carolina and Oklahoma. Lundsford II seeks to assert a nationwide class action consisting of all persons who purchased Callaway Golf clubs subject to the NPIP on or after March 30, 2000. Plaintiff seeks treble damages under the federal antitrust laws, compensatory damages under state law, and an injunction. The Lundsford II court has not made a determination that the case may proceed in the form of a class action. The parties are engaged in discovery and motion practice.

      On October 3, 2001, the Company filed suit in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, Civil Action No. 01-669, against Dunlop Slazenger Group Americas, Inc., d/b/a Maxfli (“Maxfli”), for infringement of a golf ball aerodynamics patent owned by the Company, U.S. Patent No. 6,213,898 (the “Aerodynamics Patent”). The Company later amended its complaint to add a claim that Maxfli engaged in false advertising by claiming that its A10 golf balls were the “longest ball on tour.” Maxfli

CALLAWAY GOLF COMPANY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

(Unaudited)

answered the complaint denying patent infringement and false advertising, and also filed a counterclaim asserting that former Maxfli employees hired by the Company had disclosed confidential Maxfli trade secrets to the Company, and that the Company had used that information to enter the golf ball business. In the counterclaim, Maxfli sought compensatory damages of $30,000,000; punitive damages equal to two times the compensatory damages; prejudgment interest; attorneys’ fees; a declaratory judgment; and injunctive relief. On November 12, 2003, pursuant to an agreement between the Company and Maxfli, the court dismissed the Company’s claim for infringement of the Aerodynamics Patent. On May 13, 2004, the Court granted the Company’s motion for summary judgment, eliminating a portion of Maxfli’s counterclaim and reducing Maxfli’s compensatory damages claim from approximately $30,000,000 to $18,500,000. The case was tried to a jury beginning on August 2, 2004. On August 12, 2004, the jury returned a verdict of $2,200,000 in favor of the Company based upon its finding that Maxfli willfully engaged in false advertising. The jury also rejected Maxfli’s counterclaim that the Company used any Maxfli trade secrets. Maxfli filed post-trial motions seeking to set aside the verdict and/or obtain a new trial. In post-trial motions, Callaway Golf is seeking attorneys’ fees and prejudgment interest on its successful false advertising claim, while Maxfli is seeking attorneys’ fees on the dismissal of the patent infringement claims filed by Callaway Golf. It is expected that if Maxfli is ultimately unsuccessful with its post-trial motions, it will appeal the verdict. If Maxfli is successful with its post-trial motions, or an appeal of the verdict, and Maxfli’s counterclaims are ultimately resolved in Maxfli’s favor, such matters could have a significant adverse effect upon the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial position.

      On December 14, 2004, Callaway Golf Sales Company was served with a complaint captioned York v. Callaway Golf Sales Company, filed in the Circuit Court for Dade County, Florida, Case No. 04-25625 CA 11, asserting a purported class action on behalf of all consumers who purchased allegedly defective HX Red golf balls with cracked covers. The complaint contains causes of action for strict liability, breach of implied and express warranties, and violation of the Magnuson-Moss Consumer Product Warranty Act. On January 12, 2005, Callaway Golf removed the case to the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida. Plaintiff subsequently dismissed his federal claim, and two of his state court claims, and the case was remanded to the Circuit Court for Dade County, Florida.

      The Company and its subsidiaries, incident to their business activities, are parties to a number of legal proceedings, lawsuits and other claims, including the matters specifically noted above. Such matters are subject to many uncertainties and outcomes are not predictable with assurance. Consequently, management is unable to estimate the ultimate aggregate amount of monetary liability, amounts which may be covered by insurance, or the financial impact with respect to these matters. Except as discussed above with regard to the Maxfli litigation and the cases challenging the NPIP, management believes at this time that the final resolution of these matters, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s consolidated annual results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

      In 2001, the Company entered into an agreement with Pilot Power Group, Inc. (“Pilot Power”) as the Company’s energy service provider and in connection therewith entered into a long-term, fixed-priced, fixed-capacity, energy supply contract (the “Enron Contract”) with Enron Energy Services, Inc. (“EESI”), a subsidiary of Enron Corporation, as part of a comprehensive strategy to ensure the uninterrupted supply of energy while capping electricity costs in the volatile California energy market. The Enron Contract provided, subject to the other terms and conditions of the contract, for the Company to purchase nine megawatts of energy per hour from June 1, 2001 through May 31, 2006 (394,416 megawatts over the term of the contract). The total purchase price for such energy over the full contract term would have been approximately $43,484,000.

CALLAWAY GOLF COMPANY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

(Unaudited)

      At the time the Company entered into the Enron Contract, nine megawatts per hour was in excess of the amount the Company expected to be able to use in its operations. The Company agreed to purchase this amount, however, in order to obtain a more favorable price than the Company could have obtained if the Company had purchased a lesser quantity. The Company expected to be able to sell any excess supply through Pilot Power.

      Because the Enron Contract provided for the Company to purchase an amount of energy in excess of what it expected to be able to use in its operations, the Company accounted for the Enron Contract as a derivative instrument in accordance with SFAS No. 133. “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.” The Enron Contract did not qualify for hedge accounting under SFAS No. 133. Therefore, the Company recognized changes in the estimated fair value of the Enron Contract currently in earnings. The estimated fair value of the Enron Contract was based upon present value determination of the net differential between the contract price for electricity an the estimated future market prices for electricity as applied to the remaining amount of unpurchased electricity under the Enron Contract. Through September 30, 2001, the Company had recorded unrealized pre-tax losses of $19,922,000.

      On November 29, 2001, the Company notified EESI that, among other things, EESI was in default of the Enron Contract and that based upon such default, and for other reasons, the Company was terminating the Enron Contract effective immediately. At the time of termination, the contract price for the remaining energy to be purchased under the Enron Contract through May 2006 was approximately $39,126,000.

      On November 30, 2001, EESI notified the Company that it disagreed that it was in default of the Enron Contract and that it was prepared to deliver energy pursuant to the Enron Contract. On December 2, 2001, EESI, along with Enron Corporation and numerous other related entities, filed for bankruptcy. Since November 30, 2001, the parties have not been operating under the Enron Contract and Pilot Power has been providing energy to the Company from alternate suppliers.

      As a result of the Company’s notice of termination to EESI, and certain other automatic termination provisions under the Enron Contract, the Company believes that the Enron Contract has been terminated. As a result, the Company adjusted the estimated value of the Enron Contract through the date of termination, at which time the terminated Enron Contract ceased to represent a derivative instrument in accordance with SFAS No. 133. Because the Enron Contract is terminated and neither party to the contract is performing pursuant to the terms of the contract, the Company no longer records valuation adjustments for changes in electricity rates. The Company continues to reflect on its balance sheet the derivative valuation account of $19,922,000, subject to periodic review, in accordance with SFAS No. 140, “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities.”

      The Company believes the Enron Contract has been terminated, and as of March 31, 2005, EESI has not asserted any claim against the Company. There can be no assurance, however, that EESI or another party will not assert a future claim against the Company or that a bankruptcy court or arbitrator will not ultimately nullify the Company’s termination of the Enron Contract. No provision has been made for contingencies or obligations, if any, under the Enron Contract beyond November 30, 2001.

      During the normal course of business, the Company enters into agreements to purchase goods and services, including purchase commitments for production materials, endorsement agreements with professional golfers and other endorsers, employment and consulting agreements, and intellectual property licensing agreements pursuant to which the Company is required to pay royalty fees. It is not possible to determine the amounts the Company will ultimately be required to pay under these agreements as they are subject to many variables including performance-based bonuses, reductions in payment obligations if designated minimum

(Unaudited)

performance criteria are not achieved, and severance arrangements. As of March 31, 2005, the Company has entered into many of these contractual agreements with terms ranging from one to seven years. The minimum obligation that the Company is required to pay under these agreements is $120,955,000 over the next seven years. In addition, the Company also enters into unconditional purchase obligations with various vendors and suppliers of goods and services in the normal course of operations through purchase orders or other documentation or that are undocumented except for an invoice. Such unconditional purchase obligations are generally outstanding for periods less than a year and are settled by cash payments upon delivery of goods and services and are not reflected in this total. Future purchase commitments as of March 31, 2005 are as follows:

      During its normal course of business, the Company has made certain indemnities, commitments and guarantees under which it may be required to make payments in relation to certain transactions. These include (i) intellectual property indemnities to the Company’s customers and licensees in connection with the use, sale and/or license of Company products, (ii) indemnities to various lessors in connection with facility leases for certain claims arising from such facilities or leases, (iii) indemnities to vendors and service providers pertaining to claims based on the negligence or willful misconduct of the Company and (iv) indemnities involving the accuracy of representations and warranties in certain contracts. In addition, the Company has made contractual commitments to each of its officers and certain other employees providing for severance payments upon the termination of employment. The Company also has consulting agreements that provide for payment of nominal fees upon the issuance of patents and/or the commercialization of research results. The Company has also issued a guarantee in the form of a standby letter of credit as security for contingent liabilities under certain workers’ compensation insurance policies. The duration of these indemnities, commitments and guarantees varies, and in certain cases, may be indefinite. The majority of these indemnities, commitments and guarantees do not provide for any limitation on the maximum amount of future payments the Company could be obligated to make. Historically, costs incurred to settle claims related to indemnities have not been material to the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In addition, the Company believes the likelihood is remote that material payments will be required under the commitments and guarantees described above. The fair value of indemnities, commitments and guarantees that the Company issued during the three months ended March 31, 2005 was not material to the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

      The Company has entered into employment contracts with each of the Company’s officers. These contracts generally provide for severance benefits, including salary continuation, if employment is terminated by the Company for convenience or by the officer for substantial cause. In addition, in order to assure that the officers would continue to provide independent leadership consistent with the Company’s best interests in the event of an actual or threatened change in control of the Company, the contracts also generally provide for

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

(Unaudited)

certain protections in the event of such a change in control. These protections include the extension of employment contracts and the payment of certain severance benefits, including salary continuation, upon the termination of employment following a change in control. The Company is also obligated in most, but not all cases, to reimburse such officers for the amount of any excise taxes associated with such benefits.

      The Company’s operating segments are organized on the basis of products and include Golf Clubs and Golf Balls. The Golf Clubs segment consists primarily of Callaway Golf, Top-Flite and Ben Hogan woods, irons, wedges and putters as well as Odyssey putters and other golf-related accessories. The Golf Balls segment consists primarily of Callaway Golf, Top-Flite and Ben Hogan golf balls that are designed, manufactured and sold by the Company. There are no significant intersegment transactions.

      The table below contains information utilized by management to evaluate its operating segments for the interim periods presented (in thousands).

      The Company uses derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to foreign exchange rates. The derivative instruments are accounted for pursuant to SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” as amended by SFAS No. 138, “Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities.” As amended, SFAS No. 133 requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as

either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet, measure those instruments at fair value and recognize changes in the fair value of derivatives in earnings in the period of change unless the derivative qualifies as an effective hedge that offsets certain exposures.

      The Company from time to time enters into foreign exchange contracts to hedge against exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Such contracts are designated at inception to the related foreign currency exposures being hedged, which include anticipated intercompany sales of inventory denominated in foreign currencies, payments due on intercompany transactions from certain wholly-owned foreign subsidiaries, and anticipated sales by the Company’s wholly-owned European subsidiary for certain Euro-denominated transactions. Hedged transactions are denominated primarily in British Pounds, Euros, Japanese Yen, Korean Won, Canadian Dollars and Australian Dollars. To achieve hedge accounting, contracts must reduce the foreign currency exchange rate risk otherwise inherent in the amount and duration of the hedged exposures and comply with established risk management policies. Pursuant to its foreign exchange hedging policy, the Company may hedge anticipated transactions and the related receivables and payables denominated in foreign currencies using forward foreign currency exchange rate contracts and put or call options. Foreign currency derivatives are used only to meet the Company’s objectives of minimizing variability in the Company’s operating results arising from foreign exchange rate movements which may include derivatives that do not meet the criteria for hedge accounting. The Company does not enter into foreign exchange contracts for speculative purposes. Hedging contracts mature within twelve months from their inception. For the three months ended March 31, 2005 the Company did not enter into any hedge contracts.

      At March 31, 2005 and 2004, the notional amounts of the Company’s foreign exchange contracts were approximately $70,310,000 and $101,640,000, respectively. The Company estimates the fair values of derivatives based on quoted market prices or pricing models using current market rates, and records all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in the statement of operations. At March 31, 2005, the fair values of foreign currency-related derivatives were recorded as current assets of $372,000 and current liabilities of $1,044,000.

      As of March 31, 2005, there were no foreign exchange contracts designated as cash flow hedges. As of March 31, 2004, the notional amounts of the Company’s foreign exchange contracts designated as cash flow hedges were approximately $23,674,000. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is initially recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income as a separate component of shareholders’ equity and subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period during which the hedged transaction is recognized.

      The ineffective portion of the gain or loss for derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is immediately reported as a component of other income (expense). For foreign currency contracts designated as cash flow hedges, hedge effectiveness is measured using the spot rate. Changes in the spot-forward differential are excluded from the test of hedging effectiveness and are recorded currently in earnings as a component of other income (expense). During the three months ended March 31, 2004, the Company recorded net losses of $26,000 as a result of changes in the spot-forward differential. No gain or loss was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2005. Assessments of hedge effectiveness are performed using the dollar offset method and applying a hedge effectiveness ratio between 80% and 125%. Given that both the hedged item and the hedging instrument are evaluated using the same spot rate, the Company anticipates the hedges to be highly effective. The effectiveness of each derivative is assessed quarterly.

      At March 31, 2005 and 2004, the notional amounts of the Company’s foreign exchange contracts used to hedge outstanding balance sheet exposures were approximately $70,310,000 and $77,966,000, respectively. The gains and losses on foreign currency contracts used to hedge balance sheet exposures are recognized as a

component of other income (expense) in the same period as the remeasurement gain and loss of the related foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities and thus offset these gains and losses. During the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, the Company recorded a net gain of $735,000 and a net loss of $511,000, respectively, due to net realized and unrealized gains and losses on contracts used to hedge balance sheet exposures.

      Comprehensive income is defined as all changes in a company’s net assets except changes resulting from transactions with shareholders. It differs from net income in that certain items currently recorded in equity would be a part of comprehensive income. The following table sets forth the computation of comprehensive income for the periods presented (in thousands):

      In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004) (“SFAS 123R”), “Share-Based Payment.” This Statement replaces SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” and supersedes ABP Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.” SFAS No. 123R addresses the accounting for share-based payment transactions in which an enterprise receives employee services in exchange for (a) equity instruments of the enterprise or (b) liabilities that are based on the fair value of the enterprise’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of such equity instruments. SFAS No. 123R eliminates the ability to account for share-based compensation transactions using the intrinsic value method under APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”, and generally would require instead that such transactions be accounted for using a fair-value-based method. The Company is currently evaluating SFAS No. 123R to determine which fair-value-based model and transitional provision it will follow upon adoption. SFAS No. 123R will be effective for the Company beginning in its first quarter of fiscal 2006. Although the Company will continue to evaluate the application of SFAS No. 123R, management expects adoption to have a material impact on its results of operations in amounts that are currently undeterminable.

      The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements and the related notes that appear elsewhere in this report. See also “Important Notice to Investors” on the inside cover of this report.

Overview

      The Company’s first quarter sales generally represent the initial sell-in to the golf retail channel for the new golf season, including sales of some new products for the then current year. During the first quarter of 2005, however, the Company launched fewer new products than during the first quarter of 2004 as a result of management’s plans to stagger new product launches during 2005. In addition, during the first quarter of 2005, management adopted a more conservative approach to retail inventory as compared to the first quarter of 2004, which ultimately resulted in the discounting of products during 2004 in order to stimulate retail sales. Investors should consider these factors in comparing the Company’s first quarter 2005 results to the Company’s record first quarter 2004 results.

      The initial data the Company has received thus far concerning retail sales of its products during the first quarter of 2005 suggests that demand for its products overall has been encouraging, but investors should understand that this data is based upon limited pre-season sales and may not be indicative of future sales. One of the Company’s primary challenges for the second quarter of 2005 will be whether the Company can (at reasonable costs) source sufficient components and increase production of its products to capture the anticipated demand and to be able to forecast such demand accurately so as not to have excess inventory.

Results of Operations

      Net sales decreased $63.9 million (18%) to $299.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005 as compared to $363.8 million for the comparable period in the prior year. The overall decrease in net sales was primarily due to a $58.3 million (47%) decrease in sales of woods, combined with a $13.1 million (18%) decrease in sales of golf balls and a $5.5 million (15%) decrease in sales of putters. These decreases were offset by an increase of $11.5 million (12%) in sales of irons, as well as an increase of $1.5 million (4%) in sales of accessories and other products. As discussed above, the Company expected net sales to be lower than the record level set in 2004 due to the fact that the Company is staggering its new product launches in 2005 and the Company adopted a more conservative approach to retail inventory in 2005. In addition, the Company believes its sales during the first quarter of 2005 were adversely affected by a decrease in the number of golf rounds played. Golf Datatech has reported that the number of golf rounds played in the United States decreased 7.6% during the first quarter of 2005, compared to the same period in 2004. These decreases in sales were slightly offset by an increase in sales of irons, primarily due to favorable market acceptance of new irons product introduced during the quarter.

      Net sales information by product category is summarized as follows (in millions):

      The $58.3 million (47%) decrease in net sales of woods to $65.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005 resulted from lower sales volumes as well as lower average selling prices in 2005 compared to the same period in the prior year. This decrease reflects fewer new woods product introductions during the first quarter of 2005 compared to 2004. The majority of this decrease in sales relates to a decline in sales of the Company’s multi-material driver products and steel fairway woods products, both of which were expected as the Company’s products generally sell better in their first year after introduction and 2005 is the second year in the life cycle of these products. These decreases were partially offset by sales of the Company’s new hybrid woods products which were launched during the third quarter of 2004.

      The $11.5 million (12%) increase in net sales of irons to $108.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005 resulted from higher sales volumes as well as higher average selling prices in 2005 compared to the same period in the prior year. The higher sales volume is primarily attributable to the Company’s introduction of multi-material irons products in 2005. The increase in average selling prices is due to a shift in product mix to higher priced multi-material and steel irons products. These sales increases were partially offset by a decrease in sales of the Company’s older steel irons products which were in the second and third years of their product life cycles.

      The $5.5 million (15%) decrease in net sales of putters to $31.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005 resulted from lower average selling prices as well as slightly lower sales volumes in 2005 compared to the same period in the prior year. This decrease in sales of putters is primarily attributable to decreased sales of the older Odyssey White Hot and DFX Putter models which were introduced in January 2002 and January 2003, respectively. The decrease in the sales of these models was expected as these products entered their second and third year on the market. These sales decreases were partially offset by sales of Odyssey White Steel Putters which were introduced in the fourth quarter of 2004.

      The $13.1 million (18%) decrease in net sales of golf balls to $59.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005 resulted from lower sales volumes as well as lower average selling prices. This decrease in sales of golf balls is primarily attributable to a decrease in sales of Top-Flite and Ben Hogan golf ball products in the first quarter of 2005. Sales of Top-Flite and Ben Hogan balls were $34.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005, a decrease of $10.3 million (23%) from the prior year. The decrease in sales of Top-Flite and Ben Hogan brand golf balls was primarily due to a reduction in golf ball models in the 2005 product line. Callaway Golf brand ball sales were $24.6 million during the first quarter of 2005, a decrease of $2.7 million (10%) from the first quarter of 2004. The decrease in Callaway Golf brand golf balls was primarily due to a decrease in sales of the HX Tour and Big Bertha balls, both released in the last quarter of 2003. These decreases were partially offset by the successful launch of the HX Hot, Big Bertha and Warbird golf balls during the quarter.

      The $1.5 million (4%) increase in sales of accessories and other products to $35.6 million is primarily attributable to sales of gloves and royalty revenue from licensed merchandise slightly offset by decreases in golf bags and other accessories.

      Net sales information by regions is summarized as follows (in millions):

      Net sales in the United States decreased $32.5 million (15%) to $185.1 million during the first quarter of 2005 versus the first quarter of 2004. The Company’s sales in regions outside of the United States decreased $31.4 million (21%) to $114.8 million during the first quarter of 2005 compared to the same quarter in 2004. The overall decrease in international sales is primarily attributable to a $18.3 million (27%) decrease in sales in Europe and a $13.1 million (17%) decrease in sales in other regions outside of the United States. The decrease in sales in the United States and the regions outside of the United States was primarily attributable to lower sales volumes as the result of the Company’s plans to stagger new product launches in 2005. The Company’s net sales were also affected by changes in foreign currency rates. See below, “Certain Factors Affecting Callaway Golf Company — Foreign Currency Risk.”

      For the first quarter of 2005, gross profit decreased $33.6 million to $132.6 million from $166.2 million as compared to the first quarter of 2004. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased to 44% of net sales in the first quarter of 2005 from 46% in the comparable period of 2004. This decline in the Company’s gross profit percentage was primarily attributable to a less favorable product mix as well as lower average selling prices on carryover products from last year. These decreases were partially offset by improved gross margin percentages on iron and golf ball sales during the first quarter of 2005.

      Selling expenses increased $4.5 million (6%) to $75.7 million in the first quarter of 2005 as compared to $71.2 million in the same period of 2004. As a percentage of sales, selling expenses increased to 25% in the first quarter of 2005 from 20% in the first quarter of 2004. The dollar increase in expenses was primarily due to increases in promotional expenses of $3.3 million and advertising expenses of $1.3 million. These increases were slightly offset by a decrease in employee costs during the first quarter of 2005.

      General and administrative expenses decreased $3.8 million (17%) in the first quarter of 2005 to $19.1 million from $22.9 million in the first quarter of 2004. As a percentage of sales, general and administrative expenses remained constant at 6%. The dollar decrease was primarily due to a $2.5 million decrease in employee costs, primarily due to a decrease in the amount of accrued bonuses as of March 31, 2005 compared to the prior year.

      Research and development expenses decreased $1.9 million (23%) in the first quarter of 2005 to $6.2 million from $8.1 million in the comparable period of 2004. As a percentage of sales, research and development expenses remained constant at 2%. The dollar decrease was primarily due to lower employee costs due to a decrease in personnel in 2005 compared to 2004.

      Other expense increased $1.5 million in the first quarter of 2005 to $1.2 million as compared to other income of $0.3 million in the comparable period of 2004. The $1.5 million of additional expense is primarily attributable to a $2.2 million increase in foreign currency transactional losses partially offset by a $1.3 million increase in foreign currency contract gains.

      The income tax provisions reflect quarterly tax rates of 39.5% and 36.9% for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The higher tax rate in 2005 relates primarily to a lower projected tax benefit related to export tax incentives as well as a greater impact of certain nondeductible items. The final annual effective tax rate cannot be determined until the end of the fiscal year and the actual rate could differ from our current estimate.

      Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2005 decreased 55% to $18.4 million from $40.5 million in the comparable period in 2004. Diluted earnings per share decreased to $0.27 per share in the first quarter of 2005 compared to $0.59 per share in the first quarter of 2004. Net income was negatively impacted by after-tax charges related to the integration of the Callaway Golf and Top-Flite operations in the amounts of $2.4 million and $3.2 million in the first quarter of 2005 and 2004, respectively. Diluted earnings per share was negatively impacted by after-tax charges related to the integration of the Callaway Golf and Top-Flite operations in the amounts of $0.03 and $0.05 per share in the first quarter of 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Financial Condition

      Cash and cash equivalents decreased $3.8 million (12%) to $27.9 million at March 31, 2005, from $31.7 million at December 31, 2004. The decrease in cash primarily resulted from cash used in operating activities of $41.4 million and cash used in investing activities of $10.2 million, partially offset by cash provided by financing activities of $48.6 million. Cash flows used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2005, reflect net income of $18.4 million, adjusted for depreciation and amortization of $12.2 million, a $27.3 million increase in income taxes payable, a $14.3 million increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses and a $7.6 million decrease in inventory. These cash inflows were offset by a $123.2 million increase in net accounts receivable. Cash flows used in investing activities reflects capital expenditures of $10.2 million during the first quarter of 2005. Cash flows provided by financing activities are primarily attributable to an increase in net borrowings under the Company’s line of credit of $46.5 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2005, the Company declared a $0.07 per share dividend, $4.8 million in the aggregate, that was paid to shareholders in April 2005.

      As of March 31, 2005, the Company’s net accounts receivable increased $122.6 million to $227.8 million from $105.2 million at December 31, 2004. The increase in accounts receivable is the result of increased sales in the first quarter of 2005 due to the launch of new products and the general seasonality of the golf industry as compared to the fourth quarter of 2004. The Company’s net accounts receivable decreased $69.9 million at March 31, 2005 as compared to the Company’s net accounts receivable at March 31, 2004. This decrease is primarily attributable to the lower net sales during the first quarter of 2005 as compared to the prior year. The Company’s days sales outstanding (“DSO”) were 69 days at March 31, 2005, compared to 67 days at December 31, 2004, and 73 days at March 31, 2004.

      As of March 31, 2005, the Company’s net inventory decreased $8.7 million to $172.5 million from $181.2 million at December 31, 2004. The decrease is consistent with seasonal trends during the first quarter of the fiscal year due to product entering the retail channel. The Company’s net inventory increased $2.8 million as of March 31, 2005 as compared to the Company’s net inventory as of March 31, 2004.

      As of March 31, 2005, the Company’s net property, plant and equipment decreased $1.6 million to $134.3 million from $135.9 million at December 31, 2004. This decrease is primarily due to depreciation of $11.4 million during the first three months of 2005, partially offset by additions of $10.2 million during the same period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

      The Company’s principal sources of liquidity are cash flows provided by operations and the Company’s credit facilities in effect from time to time. The Company currently expects this to continue. The Company’s credit facility, which is scheduled to expire on November 5, 2009, provides for a revolving line of Credit from Bank of America, N.A. and certain other lenders (“the Line of Credit”). The Line of Credit provides for revolving loans of up to $250.0 million (with the possible expansion of the Line of Credit to $300.0 million upon the satisfaction of certain conditions and the agreement of the lenders). Actual borrowing availability under the Line of Credit is effectively limited by the financial covenants set forth in the agreement governing the Line of Credit. At March 31, 2005, the maximum amount that could be borrowed under the Line of Credit was approximately $141.3 million and of that amount, the Company had $59.5 million outstanding and Letters of Credit issued of $1.7 million.

      Under the Line of Credit, the Company is required to pay certain fees, including an unused commitment fee equal to 17.5 to 35.0 basis points per annum of the unused commitment amount, with the exact amount determined based upon the Company’s Consolidated Leverage Ratio and trailing four quarters earnings before income taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) (each as defined in the agreement governing the Line of Credit). Outstanding borrowings under the Line of Credit accrue interest at the Company’s election, based upon the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio and trailing four quarters EBITDA, at (i) the higher of (a) the Federal Funds Rate plus 50.0 basis points or (b) Bank of America’s prime rate, and in either case,

plus a margin of 00.0 to 75.0 basis points or (ii) the Eurodollar Rate (as defined in the agreement governing the Line of Credit) plus a margin of 75.0 to 200.0 basis points. The Company has agreed that repayment of amounts under the Line of Credit will be guaranteed by certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and will be secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and guarantor subsidiaries. The collateral (other than 65% of the stock of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries) could be released upon the satisfaction of certain financial conditions.

      The agreement governing the Line of Credit requires the Company to maintain certain financial covenants, including a maximum leverage ratio, a minimum asset coverage ratio, a maximum capitalization ratio, a minimum interest coverage ratio and a minimum consolidated EBITDA. The agreement also includes certain other restrictions, including restrictions limiting additional indebtedness, dividends, stock repurchases, transactions with affiliates, capital expenditures, asset sales, acquisitions, mergers, liens and encumbrances and other restrictions. Additionally, the agreement contains other provisions, including affirmative covenants, representations and warranties and events of default. As of March 31, 2005, the Line of Credit was amended to provide that the covenant to maintain a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio did not apply to the first quarter of 2005. As of March 31, 2005, the Company was in compliance with the covenants and the terms of the Line of Credit agreement.

      The total origination fees incurred in connection with the Line of Credit were $1.3 million and are being amortized into interest expense over five years (the term of the Line of Credit agreement). The unamortized origination fees were $1.2 million as of March 31, 2005 and have been included in other assets in the accompanying consolidated condensed balance sheet.

      In May 2002, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized it to repurchase its Common Stock in the open market or in private transactions, subject to the Company’s assessment of market conditions and buying opportunities from time to time, up to a maximum cost to the Company of $50.0 million. As of March 31, 2005, the Company is authorized to repurchase up to $7.9 million of its Common Stock under the repurchase program announced in May 2002. The Company’s repurchases of shares of Common Stock are recorded at average cost in Common Stock held in treasury and result in a reduction of shareholders’ equity. During the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, no shares were repurchased under this program.

      The following table summarizes certain significant cash and contractual obligations as of March 31, 2005 that will affect the Company’s future liquidity (in millions):

      During its normal course of business, the Company has made certain indemnities, commitments and guarantees under which it may be required to make payments in relation to certain transactions. These include (i) intellectual property indemnities to the Company’s customers and licensees in connection with the use, sale and/or license of Company products or trademarks, (ii) indemnities to various lessors in connection with facility leases for certain claims arising from such facilities or leases, (iii) indemnities to vendors and service providers pertaining to claims based on the negligence or willful misconduct of the Company and (iv) indemnities involving the accuracy of representations and warranties in certain contracts. In addition, the Company has made contractual commitments to several employees providing for severance payments upon the occurrence of certain prescribed events. The Company also has several consulting agreements that provide for payment of nominal fees upon the issuance of patents and/or the commercialization of research results. The Company has also issued a guarantee in the form of a standby letter of credit as security for contingent liabilities under certain workers’ compensation insurance policies. The duration of these indemnities,

commitments and guarantees varies, and in certain cases, may be indefinite. The majority of these indemnities, commitments and guarantees do not provide for any limitation on the maximum amount of future payments the Company could be obligated to make. Historically, costs incurred to settle claims related to indemnities have not been material to the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In addition, the Company believes the likelihood is remote that material payments will be required under the commitments and guarantees described above. The fair value of indemnities, commitments and guarantees that the Company issued during the three months ended March 31, 2005 was not material to the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

      In addition to the contractual obligations listed above, the Company’s liquidity could also be adversely affected by an unfavorable outcome with respect to claims and litigation that the Company is subject to from time to time. See below “Part II, Item 1 — Legal Proceedings.”

      Based upon its current operating plan, analysis of its consolidated financial position and projected future results of operations, the Company believes that its operating cash flows, together with its credit facility, will be sufficient to finance current operating requirements, planned capital expenditures, contractual obligations and commercial commitments, for the next twelve months. There can be no assurance, however, that future industry specific or other developments, general economic trends or other matters will not adversely affect the Company’s operations or its ability to meet its future cash requirements (see below “Certain Factors Affecting Callaway Golf Company”).

      The Company does not currently have any material commitments for capital expenditures. The Company expects to have capital expenditures of approximately $25 million for the year ended December 31, 2005.

      The Company does not currently have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

      The Company’s discussion and analysis of its results of operations, financial condition and liquidity are based upon the Company’s consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may materially differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. On an on-going basis, the Company reviews its estimates to ensure that the estimates appropriately reflect changes in its business or as new information becomes available.

      Management believes the following critical accounting policies affect its more significant estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements:

      Sales are recognized when both title and risk of loss transfer to the customer. Sales are recorded net of an allowance for sales returns and sales programs. Sales returns are estimated based upon historical returns, current economic trends, changes in customer demands and sell-through of products. The Company also

records estimated reductions to revenue for sales programs such as incentive offerings. Sales program accruals are estimated based upon the attributes of the sales program, management’s forecast of future product demand, and historical customer participation in similar programs. If the actual costs of sales returns and sales programs significantly exceed the recorded estimated allowance, the Company’s sales would be significantly adversely affected.

      The Company maintains an allowance for estimated losses resulting from the failure of its customers to make required payments. An estimate of uncollectable amounts is made by management based upon historical bad debts, current customer receivable balances, age of customer receivable balances, the customer’s financial condition and current economic trends, all of which are subject to change. If the actual uncollected amounts significantly exceed the estimated allowance, then the Company’s operating results would be significantly adversely affected.

      Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. The inventory balance, which includes material, labor and manufacturing overhead costs, is recorded net of an estimated allowance for obsolete or unmarketable inventory. The estimated allowance for obsolete or unmarketable inventory is based upon management’s understanding of market conditions and forecasts of future product demand, all of which are subject to change. If the actual amount of obsolete or unmarketable inventory significantly exceeds the estimated allowance, the Company’s cost of sales, gross profit and net income would be significantly adversely affected.

      In the normal course of business, the Company acquires tangible and intangible assets. The Company periodically evaluates the recoverability of the carrying amount of its long-lived assets (including property, plant and equipment, goodwill and other intangible assets) whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable. An impairment is assessed when the undiscounted future cash flows estimated to be derived from an asset are less than its carrying amount. Impairments are recognized in income from operations. The Company uses its best judgment based on the most current facts and circumstances surrounding its business when applying these impairment rules to determine the timing of the impairment test, the undiscounted cash flows used to assess impairments, and the fair value of a potentially impaired asset. Changes in assumptions used could have a significant impact on the Company’s assessment of recoverability.

      The Company has a stated two-year warranty policy for its Callaway Golf clubs, although the Company’s historical practice has been to honor warranty claims well after the two-year stated warranty period. The Company’s policy is to accrue the estimated cost of satisfying future warranty claims at the time the sale is recorded. In estimating its future warranty obligations, the Company considers various relevant factors, including the Company’s stated warranty policies and practices, the historical frequency of claims, and the cost to replace or repair its products under warranty. If the number of actual warranty claims or the cost of satisfying warranty claims significantly exceeds the estimated warranty reserve, the Company’s cost of sales, gross profit and net income would be significantly adversely affected.

      Current income tax expense is the amount of income taxes expected to be payable or receivable for the current year. A deferred income tax asset or liability is established for the expected future consequences resulting from temporary differences in the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities. The Company provides a valuation allowance for its deferred tax assets when, in the opinion of management, it is

more likely than not that such assets will not be realized. While the Company has considered future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in assessing the need for the valuation allowance, in the event the Company were to determine that it would be able to realize its deferred tax assets in the future in excess of its net recorded amount, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset would increase income in the period such determination was made. Likewise, should the Company determine that it would not be able to realize all or part of its net deferred tax asset in the future, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset would be charged to income in the period such determination was made.

Certain Factors Affecting Callaway Golf Company

      The financial statements contained in this report and the related discussions describe and analyze the Company’s financial performance and condition for the periods presented. For the most part, this information is historical. The Company’s prior results, however, are not necessarily indicative of the Company’s future performance or financial condition. The Company has also included certain forward-looking statements concerning the Company’s future performance or financial condition. These forward-looking statements are based upon current information and expectations and actual results could differ materially. The Company therefore has included the following discussion of certain factors that could cause the Company’s future performance or financial condition to differ materially from its prior performance or financial condition or from management’s expectations or estimates of the Company’s future performance or financial condition. These factors, among others, should be considered in assessing the Company’s future prospects and prior to making an investment decision with respect to the Company’s stock.

      A golf equipment manufacturer’s ability to compete is in part dependent upon its ability to satisfy the various subjective requirements of golfers, including a golf club’s and golf ball’s look and “feel,” and the level of acceptance that a golf club and ball has among professional and recreational golfers. The subjective preferences of golf club and golf ball purchasers are difficult to predict and may be subject to rapid and unanticipated changes. In addition, the Company’s products have tended to incorporate significant innovations in design and manufacture, which have often, but not always, resulted in higher prices for the Company’s products relative to other products in the marketplace. There can be no assurance that a significant percentage of the public will always be willing to pay premium prices for golf equipment or that the Company will be able to design and manufacture products that achieve market acceptance. In general, there can be no assurance as to whether or how long the Company’s golf clubs and golf balls will achieve and maintain market acceptance and therefore there can be no assurance that the demand for the Company’s products will permit the Company to experience growth in sales, or maintain historical levels of sales, in the future.

      The Company believes that the introduction of new, innovative golf clubs and golf balls is important to its future success. A major portion of the Company’s revenues is generated by products that are less than two years old. The Company faces certain risks associated with such a strategy. For example, in the golf industry, new models and basic design changes in golf equipment are frequently met with consumer rejection. In addition, prior successful designs have been rendered obsolete within a relatively short period of time as new products are introduced into the marketplace. Further, any new products that retail at a lower price than prior products may negatively impact the Company’s revenues unless unit sales increase. The rapid introduction of new golf club or golf ball products by the Company has resulted in close-outs of existing inventories at both the wholesale and retail levels. Such close-outs have resulted in reduced margins on the sale of older products, as well as reduced sales of new products, given the availability of older products at lower prices.

      The Company’s newly introduced golf club products generally, but not always, have a product life cycle of up to two years. These products generally sell significantly better in the first year after introduction as compared to the second year. In certain markets, such as Japan, the decline in sales occurs sooner in the product cycle and is more significant. The Company’s fusion woods generally sell at higher price points than its titanium metal woods, and its titanium metal woods generally sell at higher price points than its steel metal

woods. Historically, the Company’s wood products generally have achieved better gross margins than its iron products. However, price compression in the woods market has made this differential less, and at times gross margins on woods may be less than other products. The Company’s sales and gross margins for a particular period may be negatively or positively affected by the mix of new products sold in such period.

      The Company plans its manufacturing capacity based upon the forecasted demand for its products. The nature of the Company’s business makes it difficult to quickly adjust its manufacturing capacity if actual demand for its products exceeds or is less than forecasted demand. If actual demand for its products exceeds the forecasted demand, the Company may not be able to produce sufficient quantities of new products in time to fulfill actual demand, which could limit the Company’s sales and adversely affect its financial performance. On the other hand, if actual demand is less than the forecasted demand for its products, this could result in less than optimum capacity usage and/or in excess inventories and related obsolescence charges that could adversely affect the Company’s financial performance.

      The Company is dependent on a limited number of suppliers for its clubheads and shafts, some of which are single-sourced. In addition, some of the Company’s products require specifically developed manufacturing techniques and processes which make it difficult to identify and utilize alternative suppliers quickly. The Company believes that suitable clubheads and shafts could be obtained from other manufacturers in the event its regular suppliers (because of financial difficulties or otherwise) are unable or fail to provide suitable components. However, there could be a significant production delay or disruption caused by the inability of current suppliers to deliver or the transition to other suppliers, which in turn could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s results of operations. The Company is also single-sourced or dependent on a limited number of suppliers for the materials it uses to make its golf balls. Many of the materials are customized for the Company. Any delay or interruption in such supplies could have a material adverse impact upon the Company’s golf ball business. If the Company did experience any such delays or interruptions, there is no assurance that the Company would be able to find adequate alternative suppliers at a reasonable cost or without significant disruption to its business.

      The Company’s size has made it a large consumer of certain materials, including steel, titanium alloys, carbon fiber and rubber. The Company does not make these materials itself, and must rely on its ability to obtain adequate supplies in the world marketplace in competition with other users of such materials. While the Company has been successful in obtaining its requirements for such materials thus far, there can be no assurance that it always will be able to do so at a reasonable price. An interruption in the supply of the materials used by the Company or a significant change in costs could have a material adverse effect on the Company.

      The Company uses United Parcel Service (“UPS”) for substantially all ground shipments of products to its U.S. customers. The Company uses air carriers and shipping services for most of its international shipments of products. Any significant interruption in UPS, air carrier or shipping services could have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s ability to deliver its products to its customers. If there were any significant interruption in such services, there is no assurance that the Company could engage alternative suppliers to deliver its products in a timely and cost-efficient manner. In addition, many of the components the Company uses to build its golf clubs, including clubheads and shafts, are shipped to the Company via air carrier and ship services. Any significant interruption in UPS services, air carrier services or shipping services into or out of the United States could have a material adverse effect upon the Company (see below “International Risks”).

      The Company’s golf club and golf ball manufacturing facilities in California use, among other resources, significant quantities of electricity to operate. In 2001, some companies in California, including the Company, experienced periods of blackouts during which electricity was not available. If the Company were to

experience such blackouts again, there is no assurance that it would be able to obtain alternative power supplies at reasonable prices. An interruption in the supply of electricity or a significant increase in the cost of electricity could have a significant adverse effect upon the Company’s results of operations.

      Golf Clubs. The golf club business is highly competitive, and is served by a number of well-established and well-financed companies with recognized brand names, as well as new companies with popular products. New product introductions, price reductions, consignment sales, extended payment terms, “close-outs” (including close-outs of products that were recently commercially successful) and increased tour and advertising spending by competitors continue to generate increased market competition. Furthermore, continued price compression in the club industry for new clubs could have a significant adverse affect on the Company’s pre-owned club business as the gap between the cost of a new club and a pre-owned club lessens. There can be no assurance that successful marketing activities, discounted pricing, consignment sales, extended payment terms or new product introductions by competitors will not negatively impact the Company’s future sales.

      Golf Balls. The golf ball business is also highly competitive and may be becoming even more competitive. There are a number of well-established and well-financed competitors, including one competitor with an estimated U.S. market share of approximately 50%. As competition in this business increases, many of these competitors are increasing advertising, tour or other promotional support. This increased competition has resulted in significant expenses for the Company in both tour and advertising support and product development. Unless there is a change in competitive conditions, these competitive pressures and increased costs will continue to adversely affect the profitability of the Company’s golf ball business.

      On a consolidated basis, no one customer that distributes the Company’s golf clubs or balls in the United States accounted for more than 6% and 4% of the Company’s revenue during the quarter ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. On a segment basis, the Company’s golf ball customer base is much more concentrated than its golf club customer base. In 2005, the top five golf ball customers accounted for approximately 25% of the Company’s total golf ball sales. A loss of one or more of these customers could have a significant adverse effect upon the Company’s golf ball sales.

      The Company sells golf clubs, golf balls and golf accessories. These products are recreational in nature and are therefore discretionary purchases for consumers. Consumers are generally more willing to make discretionary purchases of golf products during favorable economic conditions and when consumers are feeling confident and prosperous. Adverse economic conditions in the United States or in the Company’s international markets (which represent almost half of the Company’s total sales), or a decrease in prosperity among consumers, or even a decrease in consumer confidence as a result of anticipated adverse economic conditions, could cause consumers to forgo or to postpone purchasing new golf products, which could have a material adverse effect upon the Company.

      Terrorist activities and armed conflicts in recent years (such as the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, the incidents of Anthrax poisoning and the military actions in the Middle East, including the war in Iraq), as well as the threat of future conflict, have had a significant adverse effect upon the Company’s business. Any such additional events would likely have an adverse effect upon the world economy and would likely adversely affect the level of demand for the Company’s products as consumers’ attention and interest are diverted from golf and become focused on these events and the economic, political, and public safety issues and concerns associated with such events. Also, such events could adversely affect the Company’s ability to manage its supply and delivery logistics. If such events caused a significant disruption in domestic or international air, ground or sea shipments, the Company’s ability to obtain the materials necessary to produce and sell its products and to deliver customer orders also would be materially adversely affected. Furthermore,

such events can negatively impact tourism, which could adversely affect the Company’s sales to retailers at resorts and other vacation destinations.

      The occurrence of a natural disaster, such as an earthquake or hurricane, or the outbreak of a pandemic disease, such as Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (“SARS”) or the Avian Flu, could significantly adversely affect the Company’s business. A natural disaster or a pandemic disease could significantly adversely affect both the demand for the Company’s products as well as the supply of the components used to make the Company’s products. Demand for golf products could be negatively affected as consumers in the affected regions restrict their recreational activities and as tourism to those areas declines. If the Company’s suppliers experienced a significant disruption in their business as a result of a natural disaster or pandemic disease, the Company’s ability to obtain the necessary components to make its products could be significantly adversely affected. In addition, the occurrence of a natural disaster or the outbreak of a pandemic disease generally restricts the travel to and from the affected areas, making it more difficult in general to manage the Company’s international operations.

      A significant portion of the Company’s sales are international sales. As a result, the Company conducts transactions in approximately 12 currencies worldwide. Conducting business in such various currencies increases the Company’s exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates relative to the U.S. dollar.

      The Company’s financial results are reported in U.S. dollars. As a result, transactions conducted in foreign currencies must be translated into U.S. dollars for reporting purposes based upon the applicable foreign currency exchange rates. Fluctuations in these foreign currency exchange rates therefore may positively or negatively affect the Company’s reported financial results.

      The effect of the translation of foreign currencies on the Company’s financial results can be significant. The Company therefore engages in certain hedging activities to mitigate over time the impact of the translation of foreign currencies on the Company’s financial results. The Company’s hedging activities reduce, but do not eliminate, the effects of foreign currency fluctuations. Factors that could affect the effectiveness of the Company’s hedging activities include accuracy of sales forecasts, volatility of currency markets and the availability of hedging instruments. Since the hedging activities are designed to reduce volatility, they not only reduce the negative impact of a stronger U.S. dollar but they also reduce the positive impact of a weaker U.S. dollar. For the effect of the Company’s hedging activities during the current reporting periods, see below “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.” The Company’s future financial results could be significantly affected by the value of the U.S. dollar in relation to the foreign currencies in which the Company conducts business. The degree to which the Company’s financial results are affected will depend in part upon the effectiveness or ineffectiveness of the Company’s hedging activities.

      In addition, foreign currency fluctuations can also affect the prices at which products are sold in the Company’s international markets. The Company therefore adjusts its pricing based in part upon fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. Significant unanticipated changes in foreign currency exchange rates make it more difficult for the Company to manage pricing in its international markets. If the Company is unable to adjust its pricing in a timely manner to counteract the effects of foreign currency fluctuations, the Company’s pricing may not be competitive in the marketplace and the Company’s financial results in its international markets could be adversely affected.

      In order for the Company to significantly grow its sales of golf clubs or golf balls, the Company must either increase its share of the market for golf clubs or balls, or the market for golf clubs or balls must grow. The Company already has a significant share of worldwide golf club sales and the Company’s golf ball products achieved the number two retail market share in 2004. Therefore, opportunities for additional market

share may be limited. The Company does not believe there has been any material increase in the number of golfers worldwide in over four years. Furthermore, the Company believes that overall worldwide golf club sales have generally not experienced substantial growth in the past several years. There is no assurance that the overall dollar volume of worldwide golf club or ball sales will grow, or that it will not decline, in the future.

      In addition to the effects of product cycles described above, the Company’s business is also subject to the effects of seasonal fluctuations. The Company’s first quarter sales generally represent the Company’s sell-in to the golf retail channel of its golf club products for the new golf season. Orders for many of these sales are received during the fourth quarter of the prior year. The Company’s second and third quarter sales generally represent re-order business for golf clubs. Sales of golf clubs during the second and third quarters are significantly affected not only by the sell-through of the Company’s products that were sold into the channel during the first quarter but also by the sell-through of the products of the Company’s competitors. Retailers are sometimes reluctant to re-order the Company’s products in significant quantity when they already have excess inventory of the Company’s or its competitors’ products. The Company’s sales of golf balls are generally associated with the level of rounds played in the areas where the Company’s products are sold. Therefore, golf ball sales tend to be greater in the second and third quarters, when the weather is good in most of the Company’s key markets and rounds played are up. Golf ball sales are also stimulated by product introductions as the retail channel takes on initial supplies. Like golf clubs, re-orders of golf balls depend on the rate of sell-through. The Company’s sales during the fourth quarter are generally significantly less than the other quarters because in general in many of the Company’s principal markets less people are playing golf during that time of year due to cold weather. Furthermore, it previously was the Company’s practice to announce its new product line at the beginning of each calendar year. In recent years, the Company has departed from that practice and now generally announces its new product line in the fourth quarter to allow retailers to plan better. Such early announcements of new products could cause golfers, and therefore the Company’s customers, to defer purchasing additional golf equipment until the Company’s new products are available. Such deferments could have a material adverse effect upon sales of the Company’s current products and/or result in close-out sales at reduced prices.

      Because of these seasonal trends, the Company’s business can be significantly adversely affected by unusual or severe weather conditions. Unfavorable weather conditions generally result in less golf rounds played, which generally results in less demand for golf clubs and golf balls. Furthermore, catastrophic storms, such as the hurricanes in Florida and along the east coast in late 2004, can negatively affect golf rounds played not only during the storms but also for a significant period of time afterward as storm damaged golf courses are repaired and golfers focus on repairing the damage to their homes, businesses and communities. Consequently, sustained adverse weather conditions, especially during the warm weather months, could materially affect the Company’s sales.

      New golf club and golf ball products generally seek to satisfy the standards established by the USGA and R&A because these standards are generally followed by golfers within their respective jurisdictions. The USGA rules are generally followed in the United States, Canada and Mexico, and the R&A rules are generally followed in most other countries throughout the world.

      The Rules of Golf as published by the R&A and the USGA are virtually the same except with respect to the regulation of “driving clubs.” The R&A rules currently permit driver clubheads with greater flexibility (as measured by a specific test) than are permitted under the USGA rules. As a result, in jurisdictions where the R&A rules are followed, the Company (like many of its competitors) has marketed and sold drivers that conform to the R&A rules but not the USGA rules (the “Plus Drivers”). In those jurisdictions where the USGA rules are followed, the Company markets and sells its standard drivers that conform to both the R&A and the USGA rules. All of the Company’s other products are believed to conform to both the USGA and R&A rules.

      Effective January 1, 2008, the more flexible clubheads such as those used for the Plus Drivers will not be conforming under the generally applicable Rules of Golf as published by the R&A. It is not clear what effect the change in rules will have upon demand for Plus Drivers in R&A jurisdictions as 2008 approaches or subsequent to the implementation of the new restrictions. It is possible that some jurisdictions and/or golfers will choose not to follow the R&A’s changes and will instead continue to use Plus Drivers. This uncertainty adversely affects the Company’s research and development and manufacturing operations which must plan and commit resources years in advance of a new product release. If the Company does not accurately anticipate consumer reaction to the new rule changes, the Company’s sales in such jurisdictions could be adversely affected and the Company could be required to invest significant resources to change its product offerings at such time. The Company also believes that the general confusion created by the ruling bodies of golf as to what is a conforming or non-conforming driver and the limits imposed on new driver technology generally have hurt sales of drivers.

      There is no assurance that the Company’s future products will satisfy USGA and/or R&A standards, or that existing USGA and/or R&A standards will not be altered in ways that adversely affect the sales of the Company’s products or the Company’s brand. If a change in rules were adopted and caused one or more of the Company’s current products to be non-conforming, the Company’s sales of such products could be adversely affected. Furthermore, any such new rules could restrict the Company’s ability to develop new products.

      The Company establishes relationships with professional golfers in order to evaluate and promote Callaway Golf, Odyssey, Top-Flite and Ben Hogan branded products. The Company has entered into endorsement arrangements with members of the various professional tours, including the Champions Tour, the PGA Tour, the LPGA Tour, the PGA European Tour, the Japan Golf Tour and the Nationwide Tour. While most professional golfers fulfill their contractual obligations, some have been known to stop using a sponsor’s products despite contractual commitments. If certain of the Company’s professional endorsers were to stop using the Company’s products contrary to their endorsement agreements, the Company’s business could be adversely affected in a material way by the negative publicity or lack of endorsement.

      The Company believes that professional usage of its golf clubs and golf balls contributes to retail sales. The Company therefore spends a significant amount of money to secure professional usage of its products. Many other companies, however, also aggressively seek the patronage of these professionals and offer many inducements, including significant cash rewards and specially designed products. There is a great deal of competition to secure the representation of tour professionals. As a result, it is becoming increasingly difficult and more expensive to attract and retain such tour professionals. The inducements offered by other companies could result in a decrease in usage of the Company’s products by professional golfers or limit the Company’s ability to attract other tour professionals. A decline in the level of professional usage of the Company’s products could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s sales and business.

      The golf club industry, in general, has been characterized by widespread imitation of popular club designs. The Company has an active program of enforcing its proprietary rights against companies and individuals who market or manufacture counterfeits and “knock off” products, and asserts its rights against infringers of its copyrights, patents, trademarks, and trade dress. However, there is no assurance that these efforts will reduce the level of acceptance obtained by these infringers. Additionally, there can be no assurance that other golf club manufacturers will not be able to produce successful golf clubs which imitate the Company’s designs without infringing any of the Company’s copyrights, patents, trademarks, or trade dress.

      An increasing number of the Company’s competitors have, like the Company itself, sought to obtain patent, trademark, copyright or other protection of their proprietary rights and designs for golf clubs and golf balls. As the Company develops new products, it attempts to avoid infringing the valid patents and other intellectual property rights of others. Before introducing new products, the Company’s legal staff evaluates the patents and other intellectual property rights of others to determine if changes are required to avoid infringing

any valid intellectual property rights that could be asserted against the Company’s new product offerings. From time to time, others have contacted or may contact the Company to claim that they have proprietary rights that have been infringed upon by the Company and/or its products. The Company evaluates any such claims and, where appropriate, has obtained or sought to obtain licenses or other business arrangements. To date, there have been no interruptions in the Company’s business as a result of any claims of infringement. No assurance can be given, however, that the Company will not be adversely affected in the future by the assertion of intellectual property rights belonging to others. This effect could include alteration or withdrawal of existing products and delayed introduction of new products.

      Various patents have been issued to the Company’s competitors in the golf ball industry. As the Company develops its golf ball products, it attempts to avoid infringing valid patents or other intellectual property rights. Despite these attempts, it cannot be guaranteed that competitors will not assert and/or a court will not find that the Company’s golf balls infringe certain patent or other rights of competitors. If the Company’s golf balls are found to infringe on protected technology, there is no assurance that the Company would be able to obtain a license to use such technology, and it could incur substantial costs to redesign them and/or defend legal actions.

      The Company has procedures to maintain the secrecy of its confidential business information. These procedures include criteria for dissemination of information and written confidentiality agreements with employees and suppliers. Suppliers, when engaged in joint research projects, are required to enter into additional confidentiality agreements. While these efforts are taken seriously, there can be no assurance that these measures will prove adequate in all instances to protect the Company’s confidential information.

      The Company’s Code of Conduct prohibits misappropriation of trade secrets and confidential information of third parties. The Code of Conduct is contained in the Company’s Employee Handbook and is also available on the Company’s website. Employees also sign an Employee Invention and Confidentiality Agreement prohibiting disclosure of trade secrets and confidential information from third parties. Periodic training is provided to employees on this topic as well. Despite taking these steps, as well as others, the Company cannot guarantee that these measures will be adequate in all instances to prevent misappropriation of trade secrets from third parties or the accusation by a third party that such misappropriation has taken place.

      The Company licenses its trademarks to third party licensees who produce, market and sell their products bearing the Company’s trademarks. The Company chooses its licensees carefully and imposes upon such licensees various restrictions on the products, and on the manner, on which such trademarks may be used. In addition, the Company requires its licensees to abide by certain standards of conduct and the laws and regulations of the jurisdictions in which they do business. However, if a licensee fails to adhere to these requirements, the Company’s brand could be damaged by the use or misuse of the Company’s trademarks in connection with its licensees’ products.

      Golf Clubs. The Company supports all of its golf clubs with a limited two year written warranty. Since the Company does not rely upon traditional designs in the development of its golf clubs, its products may be more likely to develop unanticipated problems than those of many of its competitors that use traditional designs. For example, clubs have been returned with cracked clubheads, broken graphite shafts and loose medallions. While any breakage or warranty problems are deemed significant by the Company, the incidence of defective clubs returned to date has not been material in relation to the volume of clubs that have been sold.

      The Company monitors the level and nature of any golf club breakage and, where appropriate, seeks to incorporate design and production changes to assure its customers of the highest quality available in the market. Significant increases in the incidence of breakage or other product problems may adversely affect the Company’s sales and image with golfers. The Company believes that it has adequate reserves for warranty claims. If the Company were to experience an unusually high incidence of breakage or other warranty

problems in excess of these reserves, the Company’s financial results would be adversely affected. See above, “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates — Warranty.”

      Golf Balls. The Company has not experienced significant returns of defective golf balls, and in light of the quality control procedures implemented in the production of its golf balls, the Company does not expect a significant amount of defective ball returns. However, if future returns of defective golf balls were significant, it could have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s golf ball business.

      Some quantities of the Company’s products find their way to unapproved outlets or distribution channels. This “gray market” for the Company’s products can undermine authorized retailers and foreign wholesale distributors who promote and support the Company’s products, and can injure the Company’s image in the minds of its customers and consumers. On the other hand, stopping such commerce could result in a potential decrease in sales to those customers who are selling the Company’s products to unauthorized distributors and/or an increase in sales returns over historical levels. While the Company has taken some lawful steps to limit commerce of its products in the “gray market” in both the U.S. and abroad, it has not stopped such commerce.

      The Company’s management believes that controlling the distribution of its products in certain major markets in the world has been and will be an element in the future growth and success of the Company. The Company sells and distributes its products directly (as opposed to through third party distributors) in many key international markets in Europe, Asia, North America and elsewhere around the world. These activities have resulted and will continue to result in investments in inventory, accounts receivable, employees, corporate infrastructure and facilities. In addition, there are a limited number of suppliers of golf club components in the United States and the Company has increasingly become more reliant on suppliers and vendors located outside of the United States. The operation of foreign distribution in the Company’s international markets, as well as the management of relationships with international suppliers and vendors, will continue to require the dedication of management and other Company resources.

      As a result of this international business, the Company is exposed to increased risks inherent in conducting business outside of the United States. In addition to foreign currency risks, these risks include (i) increased difficulty in protecting the Company’s intellectual property rights and trade secrets, (ii) unexpected government action or changes in legal or regulatory requirements, (iii) social, economic or political instability, (iv) the effects of any anti-American sentiments on the Company’s brands or sales of the Company’s products, (v) increased difficulty in controlling and monitoring foreign operations from the United States, including increased difficulty in identifying and recruiting qualified personnel for its foreign operations, and (vi) increased exposure to interruptions in air carrier or shipping services, which interruptions could significantly adversely affect the Company’s ability to obtain timely delivery of components from international suppliers or to timely deliver its products to international customers. Although the Company believes the benefits of conducting business internationally outweigh these risks, any significant adverse change in circumstances or conditions could have a significant adverse effect upon the Company’s operations and therefore financial performance and condition.

      The Company primarily sells its products to golf equipment retailers directly and through wholly-owned domestic and foreign subsidiaries, and to foreign distributors. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and generally requires no collateral from these customers. Historically, the Company’s bad debt expense has been low. However, a downturn in the retail golf equipment market could result in increased delinquent or uncollectible accounts for some of the Company’s significant customers. A failure by the Company’s customers to pay a significant portion of outstanding account receivable balances would adversely impact the Company’s performance and financial condition.

      All of the Company’s major operations, including manufacturing, distribution, sales and accounting, are dependent upon the Company’s information computer systems. The Callaway Golf business information systems and the acquired Top-Flite information systems are different and the Company is therefore currently operating multiple platforms. The Company has made a decision to integrate the systems worldwide. This large scale project is currently underway. Any significant disruption in the operation of such systems, as a result of an internal system malfunction, infection from an external computer virus, or complications in connection with any attempted integration of the two systems, or otherwise, would have a significant adverse effect upon the Company’s ability to operate its business. Although the Company has taken steps to mitigate the effect of any such disruptions, there is no assurance that such steps would be adequate in a particular situation. Consequently, a significant or extended disruption in the operation of the Company’s information systems could have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s operations and therefore financial performance and condition.

      The Company currently and historically has accounted for its stock based compensation under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (“APB No. 25”). Under APB No. 25, the Company is not required to record compensation expense for equity-based awards granted to employees. The Financial Accounting Standards Board recently issued SFAS No. 123R which requires the Company to begin recording compensation expense for such awards based upon the fair value of such awards for the first fiscal year beginning after January 1, 2006. Such noncash compensation expense is anticipated to have a significant adverse effect upon the Company’s reported earnings.

      Although the Company has historically provided in the notes to its financial statements pro forma earnings information showing what the Company’s results would have been had the Company been recording compensation expense for such awards, the amount of such expense was not reflected in its financial results. Consequently, when the Company begins recording such compensation expense in 2006, the period over period comparisons will be significantly affected by the inclusion of such expense in 2006 and the absence of such expense from 2005 and prior periods. If investors do not appropriately consider these changes in accounting rules, the price at which the Company’s stock is traded could be significantly adversely affected. Had this accounting standard been in effect during the quarter, the Company’s net income and diluted earnings per share would have decreased by $1.2 million and $0.02, respectively.

      The Company’s stock is traded publicly, principally on the New York Stock Exchange. As a result, at any given time, there are usually various securities analysts which follow the Company and issue reports on the Company. These reports include information about the Company’s historical financial results as well as the analysts’ estimates of the Company’s future performance. The analysts’ estimates are based upon their own opinions and are often different from the Company’s own estimates or expectations. The Company has a policy against confirming financial forecasts or projections issued by analysts and any reports issued by such analysts are not the responsibility of the Company. Investors should not assume that the Company agrees with any report issued by any analyst or with any statements, projections, forecasts or opinions contained in any such report. In addition to analyst reports, the media also reports its opinion on the Company’s results. These media reports are often written quickly so as to be the first to the news wire and in an attempt to garner attention often lead with headlines that are not representative of the substance of the article. Furthermore, these media reports, which are often written by writers who are not financial experts, reflect only the writers’ views of the Company’s results. Investors should not assume that the Company agrees with such media reports or the manner in which the Company’s results are presented or characterized in such reports.

      The price at which the Company’s stock is traded on the securities exchanges is based upon many factors. In the short-term, the price at which the Company’s stock is traded can be significantly affected, positively or negatively, by analysts’ reports and media reports, regardless of the accuracy of such reports. Over the long-

term, the price at which the Company’s stock is traded should tend to reflect the Company’s performance irrespective of such reports.

      The Company may from time to time provide investors with estimates of anticipated revenues and earnings per share. If the Company provides such estimates, they will be based upon the information available and management’s expectations at the time such estimates are made and actual results could differ materially. See “Important Notice to Investors” on the inside cover of this report.

      The Company uses derivative financial instruments for hedging purposes to limit its exposure to changes in foreign exchange rates. Transactions involving these financial instruments are with credit-worthy firms. The use of these instruments exposes the Company to market and credit risk which may at times be concentrated with certain counterparties, although counterparty nonperformance is not anticipated. The Company is also exposed to interest rate risk from its credit facility.

Foreign Currency Fluctuations

      In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risks that could impact the Company’s results of operations. The Company’s risk management strategy includes the use of derivative financial instruments, including forward contracts and purchased options, to hedge certain of these exposures. The Company’s objective is to offset gains and losses resulting from these exposures with gains and losses on the derivative contracts used to hedge them, thereby reducing volatility of earnings. The Company does not enter into any trading or speculative positions with regard to foreign currency related derivative instruments.

      The Company is exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk inherent primarily in its sales commitments, anticipated sales and assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. The Company transacts business in 12 currencies worldwide, of which the most significant to its operations are the European currencies, Japanese Yen, Korean Won, Canadian Dollar, and Australian Dollar. For most currencies, the Company is a net receiver of foreign currencies and, therefore, benefits from a weaker U.S. dollar and is adversely affected by a stronger U.S. dollar relative to those foreign currencies in which the Company transacts significant amounts of business.

      The Company enters into foreign exchange contracts to hedge against exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Such contracts are designated at inception to the related foreign currency exposures being hedged, which include anticipated intercompany sales of inventory denominated in foreign currencies, payments due on intercompany transactions from certain wholly-owned foreign subsidiaries, and anticipated sales by the Company’s wholly-owned European subsidiary for certain Euro-denominated transactions. Hedged transactions are denominated primarily in British Pounds, Euros, Japanese Yen, Korean Won, Canadian Dollars and Australian Dollars. To achieve hedge accounting, contracts must reduce the foreign currency exchange rate risk otherwise inherent in the amount and duration of the hedged exposures and comply with established risk management policies. Pursuant to its foreign exchange hedging policy, the Company may hedge anticipated transactions and the related receivables and payables denominated in foreign currencies using forward foreign currency exchange rate contracts and put or call options. Foreign currency derivatives are used only to meet the Company’s objectives of minimizing variability in the Company’s operating results arising from foreign exchange rate movements. The Company does not enter into foreign exchange contracts for speculative purposes. Hedging contracts mature within twelve months from their inception.

      As of March 31, 2005 and 2004, the notional amounts of the Company’s foreign exchange contracts were approximately $70.3 million and $101.6 million, respectively. The Company estimates the fair values of derivatives based on quoted market prices or pricing models using current market rates, and records all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. At March 31, 2005, the fair value of foreign currency-related derivatives were recorded as current assets of $0.3 million and current liabilities of $1.0 million.

      As of March 31, 2005, there were no foreign exchange contracts designated as cash flow hedges. As of March 31, 2004, the notional amounts of the Company’s foreign exchange contracts designated as cash flow hedges were approximately $23.7 million. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is initially recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income as a separate component of shareholders’ equity and subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period during which the hedged transaction is recognized.

      The ineffective portion of the gain or loss for derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is immediately reported as a component of other income (expense), net. For foreign currency contracts designated as cash flow hedges, hedge effectiveness is measured using the spot rate. Changes in the spot-forward differential are excluded from the test of hedging effectiveness and are recorded currently in earnings as a component of other income (expense), net. During the three months ended March 31, 2004, the Company recorded net losses of less than $0.1 million, as a result of changes in the spot-forward differential. No gain or loss was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2005. Assessments of hedge effectiveness are performed using the dollar offset method and applying a hedge effectiveness ratio between 80% and 125%. Given that both the hedged item and the hedging instrument are evaluated using the same spot rate, the Company anticipates the hedges to be highly effective. The effectiveness of each derivative is assessed quarterly.

      At March 31, 2005 and 2004, the notional amounts of the Company’s foreign exchange contracts used to hedge outstanding balance sheet exposures were approximately $70.3 million and $78.0 million, respectively. The gains and losses on foreign currency contracts used to hedge balance sheet exposures are recognized as a component of other income (expense), net in the same period as the remeasurement gain and loss of the related foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities and thus offset these gains and losses. During the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, the Company recorded a net gain of $0.7 million and a net loss of $0.5 million, respectively, due to net realized and unrealized gains and losses on contracts used to hedge balance sheet exposures.

      Sensitivity analysis is the measurement of potential loss in future earnings of market sensitive instruments resulting from one or more selected hypothetical changes in interest rates or foreign currency values. The Company used a sensitivity analysis model to quantify the estimated potential effect of unfavorable movements of 10% in foreign currencies to which the Company was exposed at March 31, 2005 through its derivative financial instruments.

      The sensitivity analysis model is a risk analysis tool and does not purport to represent actual losses in earnings that will be incurred by the Company, nor does it consider the potential effect of favorable changes in market rates. It also does not represent the maximum possible loss that may occur. Actual future gains and losses will differ from those estimated because of changes or differences in market rates and interrelationships, hedging instruments and hedge percentages, timing and other factors.

      The estimated maximum one-day loss from the Company’s foreign-currency derivative financial instruments, calculated using the sensitivity analysis model described above, is $7.3 million at March 31, 2005. The portion of the estimated loss associated with the foreign exchange contracts that offset the remeasurement gain and loss of the related foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities is $7.3 million at March 31, 2005 and would impact earnings. The Company believes that such a hypothetical loss from its derivatives would be offset by increases in the value of the underlying transactions being hedged.

Interest Rate Fluctuations

      Additionally, the Company is exposed to interest rate risk from its Line of Credit (see Note 7 to the Company’s Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements). Outstanding borrowings accrue interest at the Company’s election, based upon the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio and trailing four quarters of EBITDA, at (i) the higher of (a) the Federal Funds Rate plus 50.0 basis points or (b) Bank of America’s prime rate, and in either case less a margin of 00.0 to 75.0 basis points or (ii) the Eurodollar Rate (as such term is defined in the agreement governing the Line of Credit) plus a margin of 75.0 to 200.0 basis points.

      Note 5 to the Company’s Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements outlines the principal amounts, if any, and other terms required to evaluate the expected cash flows and sensitivity to interest rate changes.

      Disclosure Controls and Procedures. As of March 31, 2005, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information required to be included in the Company’s periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

      Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. During the first quarter of 2005, the Company changed certain aspects of its golf club manufacturing process, including the method of tracking inventory within that process. As a result of this change, the Company implemented new internal controls for tracking inventory within the manufacturing process. The Company believes that its new internal controls for tracking inventory were effective as of March 31, 2005. During the quarter ended March 31, 2005, there were no other changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II.     OTHER INFORMATION

      In conjunction with the Company’s program of enforcing its proprietary rights, the Company has initiated or may initiate actions against alleged infringers under the intellectual property laws of various countries, including, for example, the U.S. Lanham Act, the U.S. Patent Act, and other pertinent laws. Defendants in these actions may, among other things, contest the validity and/or the enforceability of some of the Company’s patents and/or trademarks. Others may assert counterclaims against the Company. Historically, these matters individually and in the aggregate have not had a material adverse effect upon the financial position or results of operations of the Company. It is possible, however, that in the future one or more defenses or claims asserted by defendants in one or more of those actions may succeed, resulting in the loss of all or part of the rights under one or more patents, loss of a trademark, a monetary award against the Company or some other material loss to the Company. One or more of these results could adversely affect the Company’s overall ability to protect its product designs and ultimately limit its future success in the marketplace.

      In addition, the Company from time to time receives information claiming that products sold by the Company infringe or may infringe patent or other intellectual property rights of third parties. It is possible that one or more claims of potential infringement could lead to litigation, the need to obtain licenses, the need to alter a product to avoid infringement, a settlement or judgment, or some other action or material loss by the Company.

      In the fall of 1999 the Company adopted a unilateral sales policy called the “New Product Introduction Policy” (“NPIP”). The NPIP sets forth the terms on which the Company chooses to do business with its customers with respect to the introduction of new products. The NPIP has been the subject of several legal challenges. Currently pending cases, described below, include Lundsford v. Callaway Golf, Case No. 2001-24-IV, pending in Tennessee state court (“Lundsford I”); Foulston v. Callaway Golf, Case No. 02C3607, pending in Kansas state court; Murray v. Callaway Golf Sales Company, Case No. 3:04CV274-H, pending in the United States District Court for the Western District of North Carolina; and Lundsford v. Callaway Golf, Civil Action No. 3:04-cv-442, pending in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Tennessee (“Lundsford II”). An adverse resolution of the NPIP cases could have a significant adverse effect upon the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial position.

      Lundsford I was filed on April 6, 2001, and seeks to assert a putative class action by plaintiff on behalf of himself and on behalf of consumers in Tennessee and Kansas who purchased select Callaway Golf products covered by the NPIP on or after March 30, 2000. Plaintiff asserts violations of Tennessee and Kansas antitrust and consumer protection laws and is seeking damages, restitution and punitive damages. The court has not made any determination that the case may proceed in the form of a class action. In light of the subsequently filed Lundsford II case, the parties agreed to stay Lundsford I and to dismiss it without prejudice once the Federal Court proceedings in Lundsford II are underway. Subsequent to this agreement, plaintiff moved to reactivate Lundsford I and that motion is currently pending.

      In Foulston, filed on November 4, 2002, plaintiff seeks to assert an alleged class action on behalf of Kansas consumers who purchased Callaway Golf products covered by the NPIP and seeks damages and restitution for the alleged class under Kansas law. The trial court in Foulston stayed the case in light of Lundsford I. The Foulston court has not made any determination that the case may proceed in the form of a class action.

      The complaint in Murray was filed on May 14, 2004, alleging that a retail golf business was damaged by the alleged refusal of Callaway Golf Sales Company to sell certain products after the store violated the NPIP, and by the failure to permit plaintiff to sell Callaway Golf products on the internet. The proprietor seeks compensatory and punitive damages associated with the failure of his retail operation. Callaway Golf removed the case to the United States District Court for the Western District of North Carolina, and has answered the complaint denying liability. The parties are currently engaged in discovery, and a trial date in December 2005 has been set by the court.

      Lundsford II was filed on September 28, 2004 and the complaint asserts that the NPIP constitutes an unlawful resale price agreement and an attempt to monopolize golf club sales prohibited by federal antitrust law. The complaint also alleges a violation of the state antitrust laws of Tennessee, Kansas, South Carolina and Oklahoma. Lundsford II seeks to assert a nationwide class action consisting of all persons who purchased Callaway Golf clubs subject to the NPIP on or after March 30, 2000. Plaintiff seeks treble damages under the federal antitrust laws, compensatory damages under state law, and an injunction. The Lundsford II court has not made a determination that the case may proceed in the form of a class action. The parties are engaged in discovery and motion practice.

      On October 3, 2001, the Company filed suit in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, Civil Action No. 01-669, against Dunlop Slazenger Group Americas, Inc., d/b/a Maxfli (“Maxfli”), for infringement of a golf ball aerodynamics patent owned by the Company, U.S. Patent No. 6,213,898 (the “Aerodynamics Patent”). The Company later amended its complaint to add a claim that Maxfli engaged in false advertising by claiming that its A10 golf balls were the “longest ball on tour.” Maxfli answered the complaint denying patent infringement and false advertising, and also filed a counterclaim asserting that former Maxfli employees hired by the Company had disclosed confidential Maxfli trade secrets to the Company, and that the Company had used that information to enter the golf ball business. In the counterclaim, Maxfli sought compensatory damages of $30.0 million; punitive damages equal to two times the compensatory damages; prejudgment interest; attorneys’ fees; a declaratory judgment; and injunctive relief. On November 12, 2003, pursuant to an agreement between the Company and Maxfli, the court dismissed the Company’s claim for infringement of the Aerodynamics Patent. On May 13, 2004, the Court granted the Company’s motion for summary judgment, eliminating a portion of Maxfli’s counterclaim and reducing Maxfli’s compensatory damages claim from approximately $30.0 million to $18.5 million. The case was tried to a jury beginning on August 2, 2004. On August 12, 2004, the jury returned a verdict of $2.2 million in favor of the Company based upon its finding that Maxfli willfully engaged in false advertising. The jury also rejected Maxfli’s counterclaim that the Company used any Maxfli trade secrets. Maxfli filed post-trial motions seeking to set aside the verdict and/or obtain a new trial. In post-trial motions, Callaway Golf is seeking attorneys’ fees and prejudgment interest on its successful false advertising claim, while Maxfli is seeking attorneys’ fees on the dismissal of the patent infringement claims filed by Callaway Golf. It is expected that if Maxfli is ultimately unsuccessful with its post-trial motions, it will appeal the verdict. If Maxfli is successful with its post-trial motions, or an appeal of the verdict, and Maxfli’s counterclaims are ultimately resolved in Maxfli’s

favor, such matters could have a significant adverse effect upon the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial position.

      On December 14, 2004, Callaway Golf Sales Company was served with a complaint captioned York v. Callaway Golf Sales Company, filed in the Circuit Court for Dade County, Florida, Case No. 04-25625 CA 11, asserting a purported class action on behalf of all consumers who purchased allegedly defective HX Red golf balls with cracked covers. The complaint contains causes of action for strict liability, breach of implied and express warranties, and violation of the Magnuson-Moss Consumer Product Warranty Act. On January 12, 2005, Callaway Golf removed the case to the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida. Plaintiff subsequently dismissed his federal claim, and two of his state court claims, and the case was remanded to the Circuit Court for Dade County, Florida.

      The Company and its subsidiaries, incident to their business activities, are parties to a number of legal proceedings, lawsuits and other claims, including the matters specifically noted above. Such matters are subject to many uncertainties and outcomes are not predictable with assurance. Consequently, management is unable to estimate the ultimate aggregate amount of monetary liability, amounts which may be covered by insurance, or the financial impact with respect to these matters. Except as discussed above with regard to the Maxfli litigation and the cases challenging the NPIP, management believes at this time that the final resolution of these matters, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s consolidated annual results of operations, cash flows or financial position.
