Vista Outdoor’s Outdoor Products Segment to be Named Revelyst, Inc. in Planned Separation
Vista Outdoor Inc., the parent company of numerous renowned brands in the sporting and outdoor lifestyle products industry, has announced the name and identity of its Outdoor Products segment following a planned separation.

Led by CEO Eric Nyman, Revelyst aims to be a collective of category-defining maker brands that go beyond the boundaries of precision, performance, and protection.

The company’s purpose is to leverage this collective expertise and cross-collaboration to pursue new innovations that redefine what is possible in the outdoors.
The name “Revelyst” is a combination of “revel,” which signifies experiencing with abandon, and “catalyst,” representing an unwavering source of transformation. This name captures the company’s ethos of helping consumers become their best while serving as a catalyst for memorable outdoor experiences through performance gear and precision technologies.
Revelyst’s portfolio of brands includes well-known names such as Fox, Bell, Giro, CamelBak, Camp Chef, Bushnell, Simms Fishing, Foresight Sports, and Bushnell Golf. The company will prioritize a consumer-first culture, digital excellence, consumer insights and analytics, omni-channel relationships, operational expertise, and shared financial resources to deliver high-quality products and technologies to consumers worldwide.
Revelyst, with its strong foundation and diverse brand portfolio, is poised to become a leading provider of performance gear and precision technologies globally. The company will focus on organic growth, internal investment in new product development, marketing, expanded e-commerce, international sales, share repurchases, and strategic acquisitions in the outdoor industry.
Revelyst’s CEO, Eric Nyman, expressed excitement and pride in introducing Revelyst to the world. He emphasized the company’s commitment to craftsmanship, a consumer-first culture, and helping people achieve their greatest outdoor aspirations. Nyman highlighted that while Revelyst is currently known for its innovative products, the company’s journey is focused on creating wildly human experiences in the outdoors.
