(NYSE: THO) today announced financial results for its fiscal 2025 fourth quarter and full year ended July 31, 2025. “We are very pleased with the results that our teams delivered amidst a highly volatile macroeconomic backdrop. Our performance is a testament to their hard work and dedication that has helped us navigate a challenging environment. Our annual Open House event has just kicked off, giving us an opportunity to connect with our customers and showcase the exciting new products we have to offer. As we continue to execute our strategic plan, we remain focused on improving our operational efficiency, gaining market share and driving long-term success,” stated Bob Martin, President and Chief Executive Officer of THOR Industries. “Having been on the road extensively the last three months meeting with many of our independent dealers, I am more confident than ever in the strength of the relationships we have developed. These relationships have been an important driver of the lot share gains that we are seeing, which has translated into stronger retail performance.” Todd Woelfer, Senior Vice President and Chief Operating Officer added, “We are excited about the opportunities that we have in front of us, including the ability to further leverage data to monitor and respond to retail demand in real time, the creation of a best-in-class marketplace for RV parts, the generation of sustainable cost savings related to the consolidation of Heartland brands under Jayco and the completion of a comprehensive refresh of Keystone’s product portfolio amidst a backdrop of clean channel inventories.” “Fiscal 2025 was another successful year for THOR. Despite the challenging macro environment, we were able to generate over $577.9 million of cash from operations, which we used to further invest in our business, fund returns to shareholders and reduce debt. As we enter fiscal 2026, our liquidity position provides us significant flexibility to take advantage of potential opportunities, including any stock price dislocations,” added Colleen Zuhl, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. Fourth Quarter Financial Results THOR’s consolidated results were primarily driven by the results of its individual reportable segments as noted below. Segment Results North American Towable RVs ($ in thousands) Three Months EndedJuly 31, Change Fiscal Years EndedJuly 31, Change 2025 2024 2025 2024 Net Sales $888,744 $931,856 (4.6)% $3,784,666 $3,679,671 2.9% Unit Shipments 25,682 28,572 (10.1)% 119,790 112,830 6.2% Gross Profit $118,576 $117,375 1.0% $496,976 $427,386 16.3% Gross Profit Margin % 13.3% 12.6% +70 bps 13.1% 11.6% +150 bps Income Before Income Taxes $74,452 $50,913 46.2% $247,012 $169,232 46.0% As of July 31, Change($ in thousands) 2025 2024 Order Backlog $525,014 $552,379 (5.0)% Retail sales growth improved in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 for the North American Towable segment, contributing to sales modestly exceeding expectations as initiatives to gain market share began to deliver results; however, Company wholesale shipments for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 finished down 10.1% compared to the prior-year period as we aggressively managed channel inventory to ensure that we are properly positioned for the upcoming fiscal year. The gross profit margin percentage in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 improved 70 bps compared to the prior-year period, driven by reduced warranty and promotional expenses and ongoing cost savings initiatives, partially offset by non-recurring expenses associated with reducing the legacy Heartland products from the channel ahead of the product refresh under Jayco. North American Motorized RVs ($ in thousands) Three Months EndedJuly 31, Change Fiscal Years EndedJuly 31, Change 2025 2024 2025 2024 Net Sales $557,412 $517,319 7.8% $2,175,604 $2,445,850 (11.0)% Unit Shipments 4,379 3,777 15.9% 17,153 18,761 (8.6)% Gross Profit $62,869 $65,974 (4.7)% $210,634 $277,840 (24.2)% Gross Profit Margin % 11.3% 12.8% (150) bps 9.7% 11.4% (170) bps Income Before Income Taxes $39,081 $29,812 31.1% $85,343 $126,496 (32.5)% As of July 31, Change($ in thousands) 2025 2024 Order Backlog $1,004,620 $776,903 29.3% Net sales for the North American Motorized segment were up 7.8% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, impacted by a 15.9% increase in unit shipments as our teams continue to navigate a challenging cost environment while delivering key price points that consumers demand, leading to notable market share gains. Dealer inventory is at an appropriate level heading into the fall and we are poised to capture additional market share in the Motorized segment in fiscal 2026. The gross margin percentage decline was primarily due to a favorable LIFO adjustment in the prior-year period along with more aggressive promotional activity in the current period, partially offset by improved operating efficiencies and a lower warranty cost percentage. Income in the segment benefited from an insurance settlement of approximately $11.2 million. European RVs ($ in thousands) Three Months EndedJuly 31, Change Fiscal Years EndedJuly 31, Change 2025 2024 2025 2024 Net Sales $923,051 $943,424 (2.2)% $3,023,961 $3,364,980 (10.1)% Unit Shipments 12,873 14,982 (14.1)% 44,445 55,317 (19.7)% Gross Profit $143,912 $176,143 (18.3)% $460,319 $581,211 (20.8)% Gross Profit Margin % 15.6% 18.7% (310) bps 15.2% 17.3% (210) bps Income Before Income Taxes $51,948 $87,171 (40.4)% $101,634 $231,377 (56.1)% As of July 31, Change($ in thousands) 2025 2024 Order Backlog $1,525,592 $1,950,793 (21.8)% European RV net sales for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 were down 2.2% compared to the prior-year period, heavily impacted by the 14.1% decline in unit shipments but partially offset by an 11.9% increase in the overall net price per unit. Increased product costs and promotional activity, along with restructuring expenses, contributed to the 310 basis point decline in gross profit margin percentage. Fiscal 2026 Guidance “While there is significant internal excitement around the company-specific initiatives that have the potential to drive business results beyond what the broader market would normally support, we are cognizant of the inherent uncertainty surrounding the timing of these dynamics playing out. Additionally, with multiple data points suggesting weakness emerging in the job market, we think it is prudent to plan for another challenging year,” commented Seth Woolf, Head of Corporate Development & Investor Relations. For fiscal 2026, the Company’s full-year financial guidance includes: Consolidated net sales in the range of $9.0 billion to $9.5 billionStable gross margin at midpoint, with upside in a stronger marketDiluted earnings per share in the range of $3.75 to $4.25Guidance assumes a low- to mid-single digit retail decline in North America with stable market shareDoes not incorporate a meaningful financial impact related to the Heartland realignment, Keystone model refresh or other restructuring initiativesAssumes a normalized tax rate Mr. Martin concluded by saying, “We will know much more about what fiscal 2026 will bring after our Open House event this week and, more importantly, the winter shows culminating in Tampa in January, but I am optimistic with what we are seeing thus far and I look forward to meeting with investors on the road this fall.” Supplemental Earnings Release Materials THOR Industries has provided a comprehensive question and answer document, as well as a PowerPoint presentation, relating to its quarterly results and other topics.

EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before net interest expense (income), income tax provision (benefit) and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA reflects adjustments to EBITDA to identify items that, in management’s judgment, significantly affect the assessment of earnings results between periods. The Company considers these non-GAAP measures in evaluating and managing the Company's operations and believes that discussion of results adjusted for these items is meaningful to investors because it provides a useful analysis of ongoing underlying operating trends. The adjusted measures are not in accordance with, nor are they a substitute for, GAAP measures, and they may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
