EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recent Events
On June 30, 2026, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with LCI Industries (“LCI”) and two wholly owned merger subsidiaries of the Company. The boards of directors of both the Company and LCI unanimously approved the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby. Under the Merger Agreement, and subject to customary closing conditions, LCI will merge with subsidiaries of the Company and become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. At the effective time of the merger, each issued and outstanding share of LCI common stock, par value $0.01 per share, other than certain excluded shares, will be converted into the right to receive 1.2440 shares of the Company’s common stock, no par value, plus cash in lieu of fractional shares. Following completion of the transaction, existing Company shareholders are expected to own approximately 52% of the combined company, and existing LCI shareholders are expected to own approximately 48%. The transaction remains

subject to customary closing conditions, including shareholder and regulatory approvals, and has not been completed as of the date of this filing.
In connection with the pending merger, the Company expects to incur additional transaction and integration-related costs, including legal, financial advisory, accounting, consulting, regulatory, filing and other related costs, some of which will be incurred regardless of whether the transaction is completed. The amount and timing of these costs cannot be estimated with certainty at this time and will depend on, among other things, the timing and outcome of required shareholder and regulatory approvals and integration planning. In addition, if the Merger Agreement is terminated under specified circumstances, the Company may be required to pay LCI a termination fee of $94.2 million. The Company expects to fund merger-related costs from cash on hand, cash from operations and/or borrowings under the revolving credit and term loan facility (the “2024 Credit Facility”).
Overview of Markets and Related Industry Performance
Three and Six Months Ended June 28, 2026 Financial Overview
Recreational Vehicle ("RV") Industry
The RV industry is the Company's primary market, and the Company’s RV products are sold primarily to major manufacturers of RVs, smaller original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs"), and to a lesser extent, manufacturers in adjacent industries. The principal types of recreational vehicles include (1) towables: conventional travel trailers, fifth wheels, folding camping trailers, and truck campers; and (2) motorized: class A (large motor homes), class B (van campers), and class C (small-to-mid size motor homes).
Net sales to the RV industry were 39% and 42% of the Company's net sales for the three and six months ended June 28, 2026, respectively, and 46% and 47% for the three and six months ended June 29, 2025, respectively. Net sales to the RV industry decreased 15% and 11% for the three and six months ended June 28, 2026, respectively, compared to the prior year periods.
According to the RV Industry Association ("RVIA"), RV wholesale unit shipments for the three months ended June 28, 2026 totaled approximately 77,600 units, a decrease of 16% compared to approximately 92,900 units for the three months ended June 29, 2025. We estimate that RV industry retail unit sales decreased 12% for the three months ended June 28, 2026 compared to the prior year period. Retail unit sales exceeded wholesale unit shipments in the three months ended June 28, 2026 as RV OEMs maintained lower production volumes.
According to the RVIA, RV wholesale unit shipments for the first six months of 2026 totaled approximately 163,600 units, a decrease of 14% from approximately 190,700 units for the first six months of 2025. While we estimate RV industry retail unit sales for the first six months of 2026 decreased by approximately 14% compared to the first six months of 2025, we estimate that wholesale unit shipments exceeded retail unit sales during the period, reflecting lower retail demand and a modest increase in dealer inventory levels.
Marine Industry
The Company’s sales to the marine industry are primarily focused on the powerboat sector of the market which is comprised of four main categories: fiberglass, aluminum fishing, pontoon and ski & wake.
Net sales to the marine industry were 18% of the Company's net sales for both the three and six months ended June 28, 2026, and 15% for both the three and six months ended June 29, 2025. Net sales to the marine industry increased 22% and 18% in the three and six months ended June 28, 2026, respectively, compared to the prior year periods.

Table of Contents
Our marine revenue is generally correlated to marine industry wholesale powerboat unit shipments. According to Company estimates based on data published by the National Marine Manufacturers Association ("NMMA"), wholesale powerboat unit shipments remained flat and decreased 2% for the three and six months ended June 28, 2026, respectively, compared to the prior year periods. We estimate that marine industry retail powerboat unit sales decreased 6% and 5% for the three and six months ended June 28, 2026, respectively, compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to the current macroeconomic environment faced by the end consumer, such as economic uncertainty and volatile oil prices.
Powersports Industry
Powersports is a category of motorsports which includes vehicles such as motorcycles, all-terrain vehicles ("ATVs"), side-by-sides, snowmobiles, scooters, golf carts and other personal transportation vehicles, and other related categories. Our powersports business is primarily focused on the utility and premium segments of the side-by-side market, which have been outperforming the more discretionary recreational segment. We also participate in the motorcycle and golf cart segments of the market. OEMs and dealers are actively managing field inventory levels to align dealer inventories with retail demand.
Net sales to the powersports industry were 12% and 11% of the Company's net sales for the three and six months ended June 28, 2026, respectively, and 9% for both the three and six months ended June 29, 2025. Net sales to the powersports industry increased 28% for both the three and six months ended June 28, 2026 compared to the prior year periods.
Manufactured Housing ("MH") Industry
The Company’s products for this market are sold primarily to major manufacturers of manufactured homes, other OEMs, and to a lesser extent, manufacturers in adjacent industries. Factors that may favorably impact demand in this industry include jobs growth, consumer confidence, favorable changes in financing regulations, a narrowing in the difference between interest rates on MH loans and mortgages on traditional residential "site-built" housing, and any improvement in conditions in the asset-backed securities markets for manufactured housing loans.
Net sales to the MH industry were 17% and 16% of the Company's net sales for the three and six months ended June 28, 2026, respectively, and 17% for both the three and six months ended June 29, 2025. Net sales to the MH industry decreased 4% and 7% for the three and six months ended June 28, 2026, respectively, compared to the prior year periods.
According to Company estimates based on industry data from the Manufactured Housing Institute, MH industry wholesale unit shipments decreased 8% in both the three and six months ended June 28, 2026 compared to the prior year periods.
Industrial Market
The industrial market is comprised primarily of U.S. residential housing market and non-housing market categories and includes kitchen cabinet, countertop, hospitality, retail and commercial fixtures, and office and household furniture markets and regional distributors.
Net sales to the industrial market were 14% and 13% of the Company's net sales for the three and six months ended June 28, 2026, respectively, and 13% and 12% for the three and six months ended June 29, 2025, respectively. Net sales to the industrial market increased 9% and 5% for the three and six months ended June 28, 2026, respectively, compared to the prior year periods.
Based on U.S. Census Bureau data, combined new housing starts decreased 1% for the second quarter of 2026 compared to the prior year period, reflecting an increase in multifamily housing starts of 8% and a decrease in single-family housing starts of 4%.
For the first six months of 2026, combined new housing starts increased 1% compared to the prior year period, reflecting a decrease in single-family housing starts of 5% and an increase in multifamily housing starts of 15%. Our industrial products are generally among the last components installed in new unit construction and as such our related sales typically trail new housing starts by four to six months.

Net Sales. Net sales decreased $5.9 million, or 1%, to $1.04 billion for the three months ended June 28, 2026 compared to $1.05 billion for the three months ended June 29, 2025. The decrease was driven by lower sales to the RV and MH markets, partially offset by increased sales to the marine, powersports and industrial markets. Sales to the RV market decreased $72.3 million, or 15%, compared to the prior year period, primarily due to a decrease in wholesale unit shipments of approximately 16%. Sales to the MH market decreased $7.3 million, or 4%, compared to the prior year period, primarily due to a decrease in estimated MH industry wholesale unit shipments of approximately 8%. Sales to the marine market increased $34.9 million, or 22%, primarily attributable to incremental sales from acquisitions completed in the prior year and organic growth. Sales to the powersports market increased $26.7 million, or 28%, compared to the prior year period, primarily reflecting higher attachment rates on premium utility vehicles compared to the prior year period. Sales to the industrial market increased $12.1 million, or 9%, compared to the prior year period, which is attributable to market share gains and product mix shifts by certain customers.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's primary sources of liquidity are cash flows from operations, available cash reserves and borrowing capacity available under the 2024 Credit Facility, as discussed in Note 8 "Debt" of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Our liquidity as of June 28, 2026 consisted of cash and cash equivalents of $29.2 million and $661.4 million of availability under the 2024 Credit Facility, net of $8.6 million of outstanding letters of credit.
As of June 28, 2026, the Company's existing cash and cash equivalents, cash generated from operations, and available borrowings under the 2024 Credit Facility are expected to be sufficient to meet anticipated cash needs for working capital and capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months, exclusive of any acquisitions, based on the Company's current cash flow budgets and forecast of short-term and long-term liquidity needs.
Principal uses of cash are to support working capital demands, meet debt service requirements and support the Company's capital allocation strategy, which includes acquisitions, capital expenditures, dividends and repurchases of the Company’s common stock, among others.
Working capital requirements vary from period to period depending on manufacturing volumes primarily related to the RV, marine, powersports, MH and industrial markets we serve, the timing of deliveries, and the payment cycles of customers. In the event that operating cash flow is inadequate and one or more of the Company's capital resources were to become unavailable, the Company would seek to revise its operating strategies accordingly. The Company will continue to assess its liquidity position and potential sources of supplemental liquidity in view of operating performance, current economic and capital market conditions, and other relevant circumstances.

As of and for the reporting period ended June 28, 2026, the Company was in compliance with its financial covenants as required under the terms of the credit agreement that established the 2024 Credit Facility (the “2024 Credit Agreement”). The required maximum consolidated secured net leverage ratio and the required minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio, as such ratios are defined in the 2024 Credit Agreement, compared to the actual amounts as of June 28, 2026 and for the fiscal period then ended are as follows:
Required Actual
Consolidated secured net leverage ratio (12-month period) 2.75 0.61
Consolidated interest coverage ratio (12-month period) 3.00 6.58
In addition, as of June 28, 2026, the Company's consolidated total net leverage ratio (12-month period) was 2.97. While this ratio is not a covenant under the 2024 Credit Agreement, it is used in determining the applicable borrowing margin under the 2024 Credit Agreement.
Cash Flows
Operating Activities: Cash flows from operating activities are one of the Company's primary sources of liquidity, representing the net income the Company earned in the reported periods, adjusted for certain non-cash items and changes in operating assets and liabilities.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $68.9 million for the six months ended June 28, 2026 compared to $189.5 million for the six months ended June 29, 2025. The decrease in operating cash flows is primarily attributable to a $112.8 million use of cash from operating assets and liabilities, net of business acquisitions, compared to a $27.7 million source of cash in the prior year period, partially offset by a $12.2 million increase in net income compared to the six months ended June 29, 2025.
Investing Activities: Net cash used in investing activities decreased $42.4 million to $44.2 million for the six months ended June 28, 2026 compared to $86.6 million for the six months ended June 29, 2025 due to a decrease in cash used in business acquisitions, which were $7.3 million for the six months ended June 28, 2026 compared to $48.1 million for the six months ended June 29, 2025.
Financing Activities: Net cash used in financing activities decreased $92.5 million to $22.0 million for the six months ended June 28, 2026 compared to $114.4 million for the six months ended June 29, 2025, primarily due to net borrowings under our revolving credit facility of $130.0 million compared to net repayments of $45.0 million for the six months ended June 29, 2025, partially offset by increased stock repurchases of $106.1 million compared to $32.0 million in the prior year period.

Seasonality
Manufacturing operations in the RV, marine, powersports and MH industries historically have been seasonal and at their highest levels when the weather is moderate. Accordingly, the Company’s sales and profits had generally been the highest in the second quarter and lowest in the fourth quarter. Seasonal industry trends in the past several years have included the impact related to the addition of major RV manufacturer open houses for dealers in the August-September

timeframe and marine open houses in the December-February timeframe, resulting in dealers delaying certain restocking purchases until new product lines are introduced at these shows. In addition, recent seasonal industry trends have been, and future trends may be, different than in prior years due to volatile economic conditions, interest rates, access to financing, cost of fuel, national and regional economic conditions and consumer confidence on retail sales of RVs, powersports and marine units and other products for which the Company sells its components, as well as fluctuations in RV, powersports and marine dealer inventories, increased volatility in demand from RV, powersports and marine dealers, the timing of dealer orders, and from time to time, the impact of severe weather conditions on the timing of industry-wide wholesale shipments.
