MARCATO RELEASES INVESTOR PRESENTATION TO DECKERS STOCKHOLDERS; COMMENTS ON DECKERS’ RESPONSE TO MARCATO’S LAWSUIT

Highlights Board’s Track Record of Poor Oversight and Governance and Failure to Deliver on

Short- and Long-Term Financial Goals

Marcato’s Nominees Have Right Experience and Executable Plan to Create Long-Term Value

Urges Stockholders to Vote the GOLD Proxy Card “FOR” ALL NINE of Marcato’s Nominees

SAN FRANCISCO – November 13, 2017 – Marcato Capital Management LP (“Marcato”), a San Francisco-based investment manager which manages funds that beneficially own approximately 8.4% of the outstanding common shares of Deckers Outdoor Corporation (NYSE: DECK) (“Deckers” or the “Company”), today released a detailed presentation to Deckers’ stockholders.

Highlights of the presentation include:

•

Why full-scale Board change is required immediately;

•

Deckers’ failure to meet nearly every strategic priority it has set over the last five years;

•

Board’s inability to hold management accountable for unacceptable performance, failed retail strategy and excessive overhead spending;

•

Board’s failure to execute a capital allocation strategy;

•

Board’s lack of transparency and pattern of irresponsible governance practices;

•

The strong fashion, apparel, retail, marketing and financial expertise of Marcato’s nine highly-qualified nominees; and

•

Marcato’s executable plan to create meaningful long-term stockholder value at Deckers.

Mick McGuire, Managing Partner of Marcato, said: “Deckers’ inability to deliver on its short- and long-term financial goals is unacceptable. We believe immediate change is needed at the Board level as a result of the incumbent directors’ lack of urgency and failure to provide proper oversight of management. Deckers stockholders deserve directors who have strong fashion, apparel, retail, marketing and financial expertise and who will act with urgency to put the Company back on a path to success.”

Commenting on Deckers’ actions in response to Marcato’s litigation, McGuire added: “We are pleased that Deckers has taken the actions we asked for privately in October to ensure stockholders would not be harmed by exercising their right to freely choose directors. Had Deckers simply agreed to these steps initially, great expense and distraction would have been avoided. Instead, Deckers’ Board wasted stockholder resources to defend an indefensible position and yet again demonstrated their unwillingness to take action until after receiving pressure from stockholders. It is unfortunate that we had to resort to filing litigation in Delaware in the first place to protect stockholders’ rights.”

Vote your GOLD proxy card TODAY.

You can vote by Internet, telephone or by signing and dating the GOLD proxy card or GOLD voting instruction form and mailing it in the postage paid envelope provided. We urge you NOT to vote using any white proxy card or voting instruction form you receive from Deckers. Please discard the white proxy card.

If you have any questions about how to vote your shares, please contact our proxy solicitor, D.F. King & Co., Inc., at (800) 761-6521.

Why is change needed at deckers? Shareholders cannot trust Deckers’ Board and management to deliver on short-term and long-term financial goals Track record of failing to meet targets New targets are incoherent Incumbent Board not qualified due to continued poor oversight and governance behavior Executive pay not consistent with performance Inadequate capital allocation plan Board repeatedly rejected shareholder input Entrenchment tactics necessitating lawsuit in Delaware Marcato has the right nominees with right experience to improve Deckers Highly qualified nominees have fashion, apparel, retail, marketing & finance experience needed in board room Independent of Marcato (8 of 9); Independent of management (9 of 9) Deckers value creation opportunity: Focus on profitable growth of the core UGG Brand; Sell or spin off non-core brands; Target more aggressive closure of physical retail stores; Reduce excessive SG&A; Recapitalize the balance sheet; and Align management compensation with margins, profitable growth, and total stockholder return

Why is Change Needed?

Deckers’ board is responsible for company’s unacceptable performance Chronic stock price underperformance Missed margin targets Decreased long-term margin targets Missed EPS targets 55% deterioration in EBIT margin from 2011 to 2017 70% increase in SG&A since 2011 32% increase in Corporate Expense since 2011 Unprofitable acquisitions Large writedowns Why give Board another opportunity to fail? Deckers has failed to meet nearly every strategic priority over the last 5 years:

board and management have failed repeatedly to achieve margin targets Source: Company transcripts, accessed through CapIQ Promise Who/When Result “We really focus more on the overall operating margin of 20 or above, low 20s kind of thing is really how we focus anything on 2012 and beyond. So that could be a combination of the SG&A expenses versus what our margins and so forth. So that's really how we approach past 2011 at this point in time.” Thomas George, CFO, 2/24/11 earnings call “And we'll get more visibility as the year goes on to what the fall of '12 sheepskin prices will be then we'll have a better idea to answer that. That being said, still longer term, we believe with the Sanuk, the retail expansion of e-commerce, some stabilization of sheepskin, cost, we think longer term, we can still -- we still are targeting an operating income margin of 20%.” Thomas George, CFO, 2/23/12 earnings call “We have talked previously about a 15% operating margin goal. That continues to be the target and we anticipate achieving this primarily through gross margin expansion that will come from lower input costs and increased penetration of our direct-to-consumer channel.” Angel Martinez, CEO, 2/27/14 earnings call “I'd say from a target perspective, we've never before more confident, more comfortable in our ability to gain more and more leverage as the years go by. So we're very comfortable reiterating our targets, relative to a mid-teens operating margin going forward.” Angel Martinez, CEO, 7/30/15 earnings call “Over time, we believe the ongoing changes we are making allow us to achieve mid-teen operating margin levels.” Thomas George, CFO, 2/4/16 earnings call “So the cost savings, as I said, are going to be a key player in that, driving growth back into the business, will be a key player in that including the margin improvement. But as we said in the past, getting to a midteens number is still on the radar for us.” Dave Powers, CEO, 2/2/17 earnings call “As we look forward, the entire company is intensely focused on achieving our 13% operating margin target for 2020.” Dave Powers, CEO, 5/25/17 earnings call MISS ?

Sell-side analysts recognize Deckers’ lack of margin progress Source: Wall Street research. 2/4/16 Earnings call Research Analyst: “…on the mid-teens operating margin goal for longer term. Can you just give some color on what sort of the drivers are to that? Like how much of it is gross margin versus SG&A? Should we think it's more SG&A now going forward with the new initiatives?” Answer from Thomas George (CFO): “Right. It's still early in the planning process.” In 2011, Deckers initially targeted a long term operating margin in the low 20s, yet still claims to be “in the planning process” The Board and management should be held accountable for their lack of urgency

SG&A and Unallocated Overhead have grown significantly faster than revenue SG&A Source: Company filings. See appendix for footnotes.

(1) Unallocated overhead

Sell-side Research also concerned about increase of SG&A expenses Source: Wall Street research. 2/2/17 Earnings Call Research Analyst:“…it looks like if you take out that $7 million of cost savings you're talking about in 4Q, you're still looking at almost 10% SG&A growth in fourth quarter against the minus 5% top line. So I'm just wondering what are you spending on that you need to grow SG&A that much in the 4Q.” Answer from Thomas George (CFO): “Yes, Scott, some of that is related to retail stores, and that we're closing about 21 stores this year. A lot of those are going to close in the fourth quarter. So we had some additional stores in the third quarter. Some of it is some additional marketing around our E-Commerce business. And another item is there are some increased incentive comp this year relative to year ago, and that's really related to -- incentive comp related to lower levels of management relative to a year ago.” “Despite a reduced investment outlook, we remain concerned with the pace of SG&A spend to support growth of owned retail doors, which could still generate lower marginal returns than anticipated leaving earnings growth challenged longer-term. Total SG&A intensity is up 600bp over the last three years.” -1/30/15 Credit Suisse

Current Board is not Qualified to Oversee Deckers

Deckers’ board has a poor record of governance Responsible for a compensation design that is not aligned with shareholders’ interests Changed segment reporting structure, which hides retail weakness Abused change of control provisions to entrench themselves Chairman engaged in mayoral campaign during strategic review process Lacks a credible capital allocation plan Actions generally taken only after significant shareholder pressure Incumbent directors are long-tenured and lack relevant industry experience Directors lack meaningful stock ownership and have not made open market stock purchases in 5 years Long pattern of irresponsible governance practices necessitates a replacement of the Board Deckers’ Board has not acted in best interests of shareholders:

See appendix for footnotes. In 2016, Deckers combined its e-commerce and retail segments into a single segment called Direct-to-Consumer (DTC).

board is responsible for this Lack of transparency Source: Red Mountain Capital Letter, SEC filings, Wall Street research Masking retail results: “Since the end of fiscal 2015, Deckers has combined the reporting of its retail store and e-commerce performance in a broad direct-to-consumer (“DTC”) category, and no longer breaks out the performance of its retail stores. While we understand the importance of omni-channel distribution, we can only assume that the performance of the retail store network continues to deteriorate, and that management would prefer not to highlight it.” – Red Mountain Capital (Top 10 Deckers Shareholder 12/5/16) Segment reporting changes have drawn inquiry from SEC: SEC on DTC segmment: “Please provide a more comprehensive discussion and analysis of the material factors impacting net sales and loss from operations for the DTC reportable segment. In this regard, we note your discussion and analysis provided during the earnings call by David Powers, President of Deckers Brands. Please note that to the extent an underlying business is materially impacting the segment results, disaggregated analysis of that business may be necessary.” – SEC letter dated 10/1/2015 Other reporting changes have also drawn the scrutiny of research analysts: “Do not own this stock. DECK is changing its reporting segments from 4 to 2, and is no longer providing supplemental commentary.

Board attempted to use change of control provisions to entrench themselves Best governance practices require a double trigger for accelerating compensation in the event of a change of control; many of Deckers’ outstanding compensation awards contained single trigger provisions The election of Marcato’s nominees would have resulted in the triggering of a $32.6m(1) windfall to company executives and acceleration of the company’s existing credit agreement Deckers refused to approve Marcato’s nominees and Marcato was forced to sue Deckers’ Board in Delaware to prevent these avoidable costs from occurring Only after a costly litigation process did the Board agree to alter the compensation plan and credit agreement The Board continues to act only as a result of shareholder pressure Source: Company filings

Recently announced capital structure plan is incoherent Research Analyst: “Just in terms of the comment about the debt, so is that an ongoing target, like, as you generate cash and EBITDA goes up, then you'll continue to buy back stock to maintain that 1x leverage? Answer from Thomas George (CFO): No, it's not an ongoing target. I think the comment about that was, historically, we've had a conservative balance sheet. Now that we're executing well on our long-term plan and we got -- see further improvement in profitability going forward and further working capital improvements, we feel that it's an appropriate point in time to consider and evaluate the concept of some long-term debt, and we'll start slow, i.e., we think the company can easily support 1x EBITDA. So that's more of an evaluation of some initial thoughts around raising some long-term debt. That doesn't necessarily mean we'll always maintain that 1x EBITDA.” -10/26/17 earnings call CFO contradicts Board’s commitments on the same day of earnings Source: Company filings Deckers’ Board of Directors: “The Board believes that the business can conservatively support a debt to EBITDA ratio of 1x, while also providing significant flexibility to support Deckers’ growth initiatives and seasonal working capital needs.” -10/26/17 press release

Board has rejected shareholders’ recommendations Source: Red Mountain Capital Letter Lack of urgency on cost saving plan: “As you know, we introduced you to a leading global retail consultant in July 2015. We understand that this consultant identified the opportunity to significantly enhance Deckers’ operating profit through store rationalization and SG&A expense and COGS reductions. Inexplicably, the board declined to retain this consultant (or any other consultant of comparable reputation and quality) to pursue this path to create shareholder value. Management told us that it would be “too disruptive.” Lack of urgency in retail closure plan: “Deckers’ board and management have determined not to pursue the rationalization of its retail store network in a meaningful way…. In our view, a serious approach to rationalizing the retail store network would target all stores that do not generate acceptable returns on a fully-allocated basis and would close them on an accelerated timetable, even if leases must be broken in order to do so.” – Red Mountain Capital (Top 10 Deckers Shareholder 12/5/16)

Sell-side analysts recognize value of Marcato’s involvement Source: Wall Street research. “…with Marcato establishing a 6% position in the stock, we think it is likely that 1) management will be under pressure to realize a more meaningful portion of the cost savings to EPS versus potential reinvestment 2) initiates a dialogue around the strategic value of DECK’s non-core brands in its portfolio including potential alternatives 3) creates a greater sense of urgency around shareholder value enhancing initiatives including accelerated share repurchases.” – Buckingham 3/3/17

Sell-side analysts recognize value of Marcato’s involvement “We see these estimates (Marcato’s) as ambitious but plausible in the context of international opportunities, potential in other categories helped by improved segmentation (to begin Spring ’18), and revenue recapture from closed stores… …Cost savings initiatives over this period are more aggressive than those of management but, in our view, a fair directional assessment of opportunity. We are in directional agreement with Marcato on opportunities for financial engineering given the durable cash flow of the business (which could be helped by net working capital benefits from retail closures). While cash balances are principally overseas, the company could both borrow against these cash balances and use foreign cash to support foreign working capital needs. A revolving line of credit or the combination of revolver and term-loan could both accommodate working capital demands and be used to reduce the share count with accretive results.” – Stifel 10/19/17 Source: Wall Street research.

The 2012 and 2011 EBIT numbers are pro forma for the reporting change Adjusted for unusual items. Margins adjusted for restructuring and impairment charges related to the retail segment. Reported DTC margin was 16%, but adjusted for $11m of restructuring and $10m of impairment would be 19%. Estimate retail without adjusting for unusual items was 2%, but after adjusting for restructuring and impairment was 7%. See footnote 4 Total reported 2016 DTC segment revenue was $644m and EBIT was $102m. Estimate that e-commerce revenue was $265m with a ~36% EBIT margin (2015 e-commerce margin was ~40% but believe margins came down somewhat due to promotional pricing), implying an e-commerce EBIT estimate of ~$95m. The implied retail portion of the DTC segment is therefore ~$379m of revenue and $6m of EBIT, giving an implied retail margin of ~2%. Further adjusting retail to exclude $11m of retail fleet restructuring expense and $10m of impairment charges would increase the retail EBIT margin to ~7% (and increase the combined DTC margin to ~19%) Adjusted for unusual items.

The 2012 and 2011 EBIT numbers are pro forma for the reporting change Beginning in 2016 company combined its legacy retail segment with e-commerce to form the Direct-to-Consumer (DTC) segment. Total 2016 DTC segment revenue was $644m and EBIT was $102m. Estimate that e-commerce revenue was $265m with a ~36% EBIT margin (2015 e-commerce margin was ~40% but believe margins came down somewhat due to promotional pricing), implying an e-commerce EBIT estimate of ~$95m. The implied retail portion of the DTC segment is therefore ~$379m of revenue and $6m of EBIT, which would give an implied retail margin of ~2% (this is unadjusted for unusual items, see footnote 3) Adjusted for unusual items. Adjusted to exclude $11m of retail fleet restructuring expense and $10m of other retail related impairment charges (which would imply an adjusted retail EBIT margin of 7% vs the estimated 2% unadjusted retail EBIT margin) Estimate that the e-commerce business did $295m in revenue in FY2017 at a ~35%margin, which would imply $103m of e-commerce EBIT and $7m of retail EBIT (given that total DTC EBIT was $110m) Adjusted for unusual items.
