Notes to the Condensed Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

The condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of REV Group, Inc. (“REV” or “the Company”) and all of its subsidiaries and are prepared in conformity within generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary to present fairly REV’s consolidated financial position as of January 31, 2018, and October 31, 2017, and the consolidated results of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the three months ended January 31, 2018 and January 28, 2017 and the consolidated cash flows for the three months then ended. The condensed unaudited consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income for the three months ended January 31, 2018, and January 28, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The condensed unaudited consolidated balance sheet data as of October 31, 2017, was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP 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 from those estimates.

Initial Public Offering: On January 26, 2017, the Company announced the pricing of an initial public offering (“IPO”) of shares of its common stock, which began trading on the New York Stock Exchange on January 27, 2017. On February 1, 2017, the Company completed the IPO of 12,500,000 shares of common stock at a price of $22.00 per share. The Company received $275.0 million in gross proceeds from the IPO, or $253.6 million in net proceeds after deducting the underwriting discount and expenses related to the IPO. The net proceeds of the IPO were used to pay down the Company’s existing debt. Immediately prior to closing of the IPO, the Company completed an 80-for-one stock split of its Class A common stock and Class B common stock and reclassified the Class A common stock and Class B common stock into a single class of common stock, which was the same class as the shares sold in the IPO.

Note 2. Acquisitions

Lance Camper Manufacturing Acquisition

On January 12, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of the common shares of Lance Camper Mfg. Corp. and its sister company Avery Transport, Inc. (collectively, “Lance” and the “Lance Acquisition”). Lance designs, engineers and manufactures truck campers, towable campers and toy haulers. This acquisition gives the Company a meaningful entrance into the high volume and rapidly growing towables segment of the recreational vehicle market. The purchase price for Lance was $57.9 million net of $7.4 million cash acquired, subject to an adjustment based on the level of net working capital at closing, as defined in the purchase agreement. The net cash consideration paid at closing was funded through the Company’s revolving credit facility. Lance is reported as part of the Recreation segment. The preliminary purchase price allocation resulted in goodwill of $49.8 million, which is deductible for income tax purposes.

The Lance Acquisition will be accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting, whereby the purchase price will be allocated to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values on the acquisition date, with the remaining unallocated purchase price recorded as goodwill.

As of January 31, 2018, the Company had not completed its assessment of the fair value of all acquired assets and liabilities assumed, or of the determination of the final purchase price calculation, as defined in the purchase agreement.

The Company will also pay up to an additional $10.0 million to the selling shareholders subsequent to the acquisition date in the form of deferred purchase price payable of $5.0 million on each of the 12 and 24 month anniversary dates of the acquisition date as per the agreement terms.

On May 15, 2017, the Company acquired certain real estate assets and operating assets and liabilities of Van-Mor Enterprises, Inc. (“Van-Mor” and the “Van-Mor Acquisition”).

The purchase price for Ferrara was $100.1 million ($97.1 million net of $3.0 million cash acquired), subject to an adjustment based on the level of net working capital at closing, as defined in the purchase agreement. The net cash consideration paid at closing was funded through the Company’s revolving credit facility and Term Loan. Ferrara is reported as part of the Fire & Emergency segment.

April 2017 ABL Facility

Effective April 25, 2017, the Company entered into a $350.0 million revolving credit and guaranty agreement (the “April 2017 ABL Facility” and “ABL Agreement”) with a syndicate of lenders. The April 2017 ABL Facility consists of: (i) Revolving Loans, (ii) Swing Line Loans, and (iii) Letters of Credit, aggregating up to a combined maximum of $350.0 million. The total amount borrowed under the April 2017 ABL Facility is subject to a $30.0 million sublimit for Swing Line loans and a $35.0 million sublimit for Letters of Credit, along with certain borrowing base and other customary restrictions as defined in the ABL Agreement. The Company incurred $4.9 million of debt issuance costs related to the April 2017 ABL Facility.

The April 2017 ABL Facility allows for incremental borrowing capacity in an aggregate amount of up to $100.0 million, plus the excess, if any, of the borrowing base then in effect over total commitments then in effect. Any such incremental borrowing capacity is subject to receiving additional commitments from lenders and certain other customary conditions. The April 2017 ABL Facility matures on April 25, 2022.

On December 22, 2017 the Company exercised its $100.0 million incremental commitment option under the April 2017 ABL Facility, which increased total borrowing capacity under the facility from $350.0 million to $450.0 million. The Company incurred $0.3 million of debt issuance costs related to the April 2017 ABL Facility.

Revolving Loans under the April 2017 ABL Facility bear interest at rates equal to, at the Company’s option, either a base rate plus an applicable margin, or a Eurodollar rate plus an applicable margin. Applicable interest rate margins are initially 0.75% for all base rate loans and 1.75% for all Eurodollar rate loans (with the Eurodollar rate having a floor of 0%), subject to adjustment based on utilization in accordance with the ABL Agreement. Interest is payable quarterly for all base rate loans, and is payable monthly or quarterly for all Eurodollar rate loans.

The lenders under the April 2017 ABL Facility have a first priority security interest in substantially all accounts receivable and inventory of the Company, and a second priority security interest in substantially all other assets of the Company.

The Company may prepay principal, in whole or in part, at any time without penalty.

The April 2017 ABL Facility contains customary representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants, subject in certain cases to customary limitations, exceptions and exclusions. The April 2017 ABL Facility also contains certain customary events of default, which should such events occur, could result in the termination of the commitments under the April 2017 ABL Facility and the acceleration of all outstanding borrowings under it. The April 2017 ABL Facility contains a financial covenant restricting the Company from allowing its fixed charge coverage ratio to drop below 1.00 to 1.00 during a compliance period, which is triggered when the availability under the April 2017 ABL Facility falls below a threshold set forth in the credit agreement.

The Company was in compliance with all financial covenants under the April 2017 ABL Facility as of January 31, 2018.

October 2013 ABL Facility

Effective October 21, 2013, the Company entered into a $150.0 million senior secured revolving credit and guaranty agreement (the Asset Based Lending “ABL” or the “ABL Facility”) with a syndicate of lenders.

The Company incurred $3.5 million of debt issuance costs related to the ABL Facility.

On April 22, 2016, the Company exercised its $50.0 million Incremental Commitment option under the ABL Facility in conjunction with the KME Acquisition, which increased the borrowing capacity under the ABL Facility to $200.0 million at that time. All other terms and conditions remained unchanged.

On August 19, 2016, the Company amended the ABL Facility to add an Incremental Commitment option of $100.0 million (the “August 2016 Amendment”), and on that date exercised the Incremental Commitment option. The August 2016 Amendment increased the borrowing capacity under the ABL Facility to $300.0 million. All other terms and conditions remained unchanged.

On April 25, 2017, the Company repaid all outstanding loans and obligations under the ABL Facility in full, and the ABL Facility was terminated. In connection with the termination of the ABL Facility, the Company recorded a $0.7 million loss on early extinguishment of debt, which consisted entirely of the write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs.

All outstanding principal on the ABL Facility was due and payable on the maturity date of October 21, 2018, unless as otherwise amended per the terms of the agreement. Principal could be repaid at any time during the term of the ABL Facility without penalty.

Revolving Loans under the ABL Facility bore interest at rates equal to, at the Company’s option, either a Base Rate plus an Applicable Margin, or a Eurodollar Rate plus an Applicable Margin. Swing Line Loans under the ABL Facility bore interest at a rate equal to a Base Rate plus an Applicable Margin. Applicable Margins were initially set at 0.75% for Base Rate loans and Swing Line Loans, and 1.75% for Eurodollar loans, and were subject to subsequent adjustment as defined in the agreement. Interest was payable quarterly for all loans in which a Base Rate is applied, and was payable either monthly, quarterly, or semi-annually for all loans in which a Eurodollar Rate was applied.

Effective April 25, 2017, the Company entered into a $75.0 million term loan agreement (“Term Loan” and “Term Loan Agreement”), as Borrower with certain subsidiaries of the Company, as Guarantor Subsidiaries. Principal may be prepaid at any time during the term of the Term Loan without penalty. The Company incurred $2.0 million of debt issuance costs related to the Term Loan.

The Term Loan Agreement allows for incremental facilities in an aggregate amount of up to $125.0 million. Any such incremental facilities are subject to receiving additional commitments from lenders and certain other customary conditions. The Term Loan agreement requires annual payments of $0.8 million per year, with remaining principle payable at maturity, which is April 25, 2022.

Applicable interest rate margins for the Term Loan are initially 2.50% for base rate loans and 3.50% for Eurodollar rate loans (with the Eurodollar rate having a floor of 1.00%). Interest is payable quarterly for all base rate loans, and is payable monthly or quarterly for all Eurodollar rate loans.

The Company may voluntarily prepay principal, in whole or in part, at any time, without penalty. Beginning in fiscal year 2018, the Company is obligated to prepay certain minimum amounts based on the Company’s excess cash flow, as defined in the Term Loan Agreement. The Term Loan is also subject to mandatory prepayment if the Company or any of its restricted subsidiaries receives proceeds from certain events, including certain asset sales and casualty events, and the issuance of certain debt and equity interests.

17

Senior Secured Notes

On October 21, 2013, the Company issued (the “Offering”) $200.0 million in aggregate principal amount of its 8.5% Senior Secured Notes (the “Notes”). The net proceeds from the Offering, together with net proceeds from the Company’s ABL Facility (defined below), were used to finance the acquisition of the commercial bus business of Thor Industries, Inc. in fiscal year 2013 and to repay all outstanding debt existing at the time of the Offering.

The Notes were to mature on November 1, 2019. Interest accrued on the Notes at the rate of 8.5% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on May 1 and November 1 each year.

The Notes were guaranteed by all direct and indirect wholly owned domestic subsidiaries of the Company that guarantee debt under the Company’s previous ABL Facility described below. The Notes were secured by a first priority lien on substantially all of the guarantors’ assets other than accounts receivable and inventory, and related assets, pledged under the Company’s previous ABL Facility. The Notes were also secured by a second priority lien on substantially all of the collateral under the Company’s previous ABL Facility. The Notes were effectively subordinated to debt incurred under the Company’s previous ABL Facility, or other permitted debt facilities and obligations, as defined, to the extent of the value of the assets securing the Company’s previous ABL Facility.

On October 17, 2016, the Company completed an open market purchase of $20.0 million of its outstanding Notes, which were subsequently cancelled. The Company paid a premium of $0.4 million and accrued interest of $0.8 million as of the date of the purchase.

On or after November 1, of the years below, the Company was allowed to redeem all or a part of the Notes at the redemption prices set forth below plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes redeemed, to the applicable redemption date:

104.250% (November 1, 2016)

102.125% (November 1, 2017)

100.000% (November 1, 2018 and thereafter)

The Notes were issued with an applicable original issue discount (“OID”) of $1.2 million. The Company also incurred $9.0 million in associated debt issuance costs.

On January 17, 2017, the Company issued a Notice of Conditional Redemption, subject to the completion of the Company’s IPO, to redeem all the outstanding Notes at a redemption price of 104.250% plus accrued and unpaid interest. On February 16, 2017, the Company redeemed all Notes, which were outstanding as of that date, and retired the debt. As a result of this redemption, the Company recorded a $11.2 million loss associated with the early extinguishment of the debt, which consisted of a prepayment premium of $7.7 million, $3.1 million of unamortized debt issuance costs and $0.4 million of OID.

Note 8. Warranties

The Company’s products generally carry explicit warranties that extend from several months to several years, based on terms that are generally accepted in the marketplace. Selected components (such as engines, transmissions, tires, etc.) included in the Company’s end products may include warranties from original equipment manufacturers (“OEM”). These OEM warranties are passed on to the end customer of the Company’s products, and the customer deals directly with the applicable OEM for any issues encountered on those components.

18

Changes in the Company’s warranty liability consisted of the following (in thousands):

Accrued warranty is classified in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as follows (in thousands):

Provisions for estimated warranty and other related costs are recorded at the time of sale and are periodically adjusted to reflect actual experience. Certain warranty and other related claims involve matters of dispute that ultimately are resolved by negotiation, arbitration or litigation. At times, warranty issues arise that are beyond the scope of the Company’s historical experience. The potential liability for these issues is evaluated on a case by case basis.

Note 9. Employee Benefit Plan

The Company has a defined contribution 401(k) plan covering substantially all of U.S. employees. The plan allows employees to defer up to 100% of their employment income (subject to annual contribution limits imposed by the I.R.S.) after all taxes and applicable benefit deductions. Each employee who elects to participate is eligible to receive Company matching contributions that are based on employee contributions to the plans, subject to certain limitations. Amounts expensed for the Company’s matching and discretionary contributions were $2.2 million and $1.6 million for the three months ended January 31, 2018 and January 28, 2017, respectively.

Note 10. Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities

The Company is exposed to certain risks relating to its ongoing business operations. The primary risk related to cash flows, partially managed by using derivative instruments, is foreign currency exchange rate risk. Forward contracts on various foreign currencies are entered into to manage the foreign currency exchange rate risk on the collection of receivables denominated in foreign currencies. These derivatives typically require the exchange of a foreign currency for U.S. dollars at a fixed rate at a future date.

To protect against the reduction in value of forecasted foreign currency cash flows resulting from export sales, the Company has instituted a foreign currency cash flow hedging program. The Company hedges portions of its receivables denominated in foreign currencies with forward contracts. When the U.S. dollar weakens against foreign currencies, decreased foreign currency payments are offset by gains in the value of the forward contracts. Conversely, when the U.S. dollar strengthens against foreign currencies, increased foreign currency payments are offset by losses in the value of the forward contracts.

For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified into earnings in the same line item associated with the forecasted transaction and in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. The Company generally hedges its exposure to the variability in future cash flows for a maximum of 12 to 18 months.

The ineffective portion of cash flow hedges, which is the remaining gain or loss on the derivative instrument in excess of the cumulative change in the present value of future cash flows of the hedged item, if any, or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness, is recognized immediately during the current period as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company’s consolidated statement of income.

19

A net amount of $0.3 million recorded as loss in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) is expected to be reclassified to earnings within the next 12 months. The Company had forward foreign exchange contracts with a gross notional value of $8.2 million and $7.8 million as of January 31, 2018 and October 31, 2017, respectively, designated as cash flow hedges.

Note 11. Shareholders’ Equity

Prior to the IPO, the Company’s certificate of incorporation allowed for the issuance of up to 46,000,000 Class A common shares and for the issuance of up to 43,200,000 Class B common shares. Concurrent with the closing of the Company’s IPO, the Company amended its certificate of incorporation to provide for the automatic reclassification of its Class A common stock and Class B common stock into a single class of common stock, of which 605,000,000 shares are designated as common stock, and 95,000,000 shares are designated as preferred stock and to effect an 80-for-one stock split.

Shareholder Rights: Prior to the Company’s IPO completed on February 1, 2017, all of the then shareholders of the Company were a party to the Amended Shareholders Agreement (the “Shareholders Agreement”) which governed the shareholders’ voting rights, right to transfer securities, rights in the event of a sale of the Company or other liquidity event and other special approval rights. Under the terms of the Shareholders Agreement, the Company was required (at the shareholder’s option) or had the option to purchase the shareholder’s common stock upon termination, disability, death or retirement if the shareholder was an employee. If an employee shareholder was terminated for cause or the employee shareholder departed for any reason other than death, disability or retirement, the purchase price of the common stock was the lesser of termination book value or cost. In the case of termination for any other reason and in the case of death, disability or retirement, the purchase price was a price per share equal to the fair market value as determined by the Company’s board of directors. In connection with the IPO, the Company entered into an amended and restated shareholders agreement with certain shareholders. The amended and restated shareholders agreement became effective upon completion of the IPO and replaced the Shareholders Agreement that was in effect immediately prior to the IPO.

Note 12. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per common share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding including shares of contingently redeemable common stock. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding assuming dilution. The difference between basic EPS and diluted EPS is the result of the dilutive effect of outstanding stock options and restricted stock units. The table below reconciles basic weighted-average common shares outstanding to diluted weighted-average shares outstanding for the three months ended January 31, 2018 and January 28, 2017:

The table below represents exclusions from the calculation of weighted-average shares outstanding assuming dilution due to the anti-dilutive effect of the common stock equivalents for the three months ended January 31, 2018 and January 28, 2017:

Note 13. Contingently Redeemable Common Stock

Prior to the Company’s IPO, shares of common stock held by employees were eligible to be put to the Company in accordance with the Shareholders Agreement if certain criteria (as defined in the Shareholders Agreement) were met and the former employee or his or her beneficiaries exercised the option to put the shares to the Company in accordance with the Shareholders Agreement. As these provisions were not certain of being met, the shares of common stock held by employees were considered contingently redeemable common stock and recorded as temporary equity on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet until the shares of common stock were either re-purchased by the Company or the put option expired. The put option expired 90 or 180 days after termination of

20

employment, depending on the nature of the termination or upon the sale of the Company or an initial public offering of the Company’s common stock. The value of these shares of common stock was presented at fair value on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. Prior to the Company’s IPO, the fair value of the Company’s common stock was calculated by estimating the Company’s enterprise value by applying an earnings multiple to the Company’s Adjusted EBITDA over the previous 12 months, and deducting outstanding net debt.

When the put option was exercised or expired, the shares were re-measured at fair value on that date and reclassified from temporary equity to shareholders’ equity. Changes in the fair value of the contingently redeemable shares of common stock were recorded in retained earnings.

In connection with the IPO, the put option of employee-owned shares of common stock was eliminated, resulting in the reclassification of $35.4 million to additional paid-in capital and 1,607,760 contingently redeemable shares to common shares outstanding.

Note 14. Stock Compensation

In April 2010, the Company’s board of directors approved the Allied Specialty Vehicles, Inc. 2010 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2010 Plan”). Under the 2010 Plan, key employees, including employees who may also be directors or officers of the Company, outside directors, key consultants and key contractors of the Company may be granted incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, and other share-based awards. The 2010 Plan provides for the granting of options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at not less than the fair market value of such shares on the date of grant. Stock options terminate not more than ten years from the date of grant. The 2010 Plan allows acceleration of options upon certain events. The Company recognizes compensation expense for stock options, nonvested restricted stock and performance share awards over the requisite service period for vesting of the award, or to an employee’s eligible retirement date, if earlier and applicable. An aggregate of 8,000,000 shares were reserved for future awards under the 2010 Plan. At January 31, 2018, the Company had 4,253,440 remaining shares available for issuance under the 2010 Plan. With the approval of the 2016 Plan (defined below), the Company will no longer issue share-based awards under the 2010 Plan.

In January 2017, the Company’s board of directors approved the REV Group, Inc. 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”). Under the 2016 Plan, key employees, including employees who may also be directors or officers of the Company, outside directors, key consultants and key contractors of the Company may be granted incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, and other share-based awards. The 2016 Plan provides for the granting of options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at not less than the fair market value of such shares on the date of grant. Stock options terminate not more than ten years from the date of grant. The 2016 Plan allows acceleration of share awards upon certain events. The Company recognizes compensation expense for stock options, nonvested restricted stock and performance share awards over the requisite service period for vesting of the award, or to an employee’s eligible retirement date, if earlier and applicable. An aggregate of 8,000,000 shares were reserved for future awards under the 2016 Plan. At January 31, 2018, the Company had 7,990,312 remaining shares available for issuance under the 2016 Plan.

During the three months ended January 31, 2018, and January 28, 2017, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of $1.8 million and $25.5 million, respectively, as selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company’s consolidated statements of income.

Stock Option Awards: Stock options granted have a term of up to 10 years from the grant date. The vesting of these options are either immediate, upon a triggering event or over a period of time. Exercisability of the triggering event options is contingent upon the occurrence of a change in control of the Company, or in certain of the option grants, an initial public offering. The Company estimates the fair value of all stock option awards on the grant date by applying the Black-Scholes option-pricing valuation model. The application of this valuation model involves assumptions that are highly subjective, judgmental and sensitive in the determination of stock compensation cost. 

As a result of the Company’s IPO in January 2017, 1.2 million of stock options immediately vested. The Company recorded stock compensation expense of $4.4 million resulting from the vesting of these stock options. As of January 31, 2018, the Company could potentially recognize $0.3 million of stock compensation expense if certain performance targets were met or were expected by management to be achieved. As of January 31, 2018, the Company had $1.4 million of unrecognized stock compensation expense related to time based vesting stock options.

During the three months ended January 31, 2018 and January 28, 2017, the Company recorded stock compensation expense of $1.0 million and $3.3 million, respectively, to redeem performance based stock options. The amount paid per share to redeem these stock options was equal to the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of redemption less the stock option exercise price.

21

Prior to the Company’s IPO, certain stock options outstanding which were considered liability share awards as the underlying shares were eligible to be sold back to the Company as a result of put rights in the Shareholders Agreement, within a period of time which would not subject the shareholder to the risks and rewards of share ownership for a reasonable period of time. Concurrent with the Company’s IPO, the Company’s Shareholders Agreement was terminated, and as such the put rights from that agreement were no longer available to the Company’s shareholders and no outstanding stock options were considered liability awards after that date. As such, the fair value of vested outstanding liability share awards, which was $26.5 million on the date of the Company’s IPO, were reclassified to additional paid-in capital during the first quarter of fiscal year 2017. In addition, upon completion of the Company’s IPO, 1,528,000 of outstanding liability option awards were vested. The vested portion of these outstanding options was re-measured at fair value based upon the $22.00 per share price of the Company’s IPO. The accelerated vesting of the liability awards and remeasurement of the liability to the $22.00 per share price resulted in additional stock compensation expense of $16.2 million during the first quarter of fiscal year 2017.

The change in the number of stock options outstanding consisted of the following:

During the three months ended January 31, 2018, the fair value of shares issued for stock options exercised was $13.4 million.

Restricted Stock Units Awards: The Company has granted restricted stock units to certain employees and non-employee directors. Restricted stock units will vest over four years for employees and over one year for certain employees and non-employee directors.

The change in the number of unvested restricted stock units outstanding consisted of the following:

During the three months ended January 31, 2018, the fair value of shares issued for vested restricted stock units was $0.4 million.

Performance Stock Units Awards: The Company has granted performance stock units to certain employees that will vest based upon the achievement of certain performance measures in fiscal years 2018 through 2020. Performance stock units that will vest based upon performance measures for fiscal year 2018 are considered granted as of January 31, 2018. Performance stock units for fiscal 2019 and beyond are subject to vesting provisions based on operating income targets providing for year over year growth and thus cannot be determined until prior year income is known. Those performance stock units are not included in the table below. These metrics will be established after the end of the current fiscal year.

The unvested performance stock units granted under the 2016 Plan have the right to accrue dividends, but not the right to vote. Dividends are paid in accordance with vesting of the associated performance stock units. All of the unvested performance stock units granted under the 2016 Plan vest upon the termination of participants in certain situations and following certain changes of control of the Company.

The change in the number of unvested performance stock units outstanding consisted of the following:

Note 15. Restructuring Charges

In the third quarter of fiscal 2017, the Company restructured certain management positions in its Commercial segment and in its Corporate office, and incurred personnel costs, including severance and other employee benefit payments of $1.5 million. At January 31, 2018, a balance of $0.4 million of the restructuring costs remained unpaid.

In the first quarter of fiscal year 2018, the Company restructured certain management positions in its Recreation segment and in its Corporate office. Costs incurred consisted of $3.5 million of personnel costs, including severance, and other employee benefit payments, as well as facility moving expenses of $0.6 million in the Recreation segment. At January 31, 2018, a balance of $0.8 million of the restructuring costs remained unpaid.

A summary of the changes in the Company’s restructuring liability is as follows (in thousands):

Note 16. Income Taxes

For interim financial reporting, the Company estimates its annual effective tax rate based on the projected income for its entire fiscal year and records a provision (benefit) for income taxes on a quarterly basis based on its estimated annual effective income tax rate, adjusted for any discrete tax items.

The Company recorded income tax benefit of $13.8 million for the three months ended January 31, 2018, or 313.1% of pre-tax loss, compared to $7.8 million, or 37.1% of pre-tax loss, for the three months ended January 28, 2017. Results for the three months ended January 31, 2018 were favorably impacted by $12.7 million of net discrete tax benefits, including a $2.3 million benefit related to stock option exercises and vesting of restricted stock units under ASU 2016-09 and a $10.4 million benefit related to the remeasurement of net deferred tax liabilities as a result of new tax legislation in the United States. Results for the three months ended January 28, 2017 were favorably impacted by income tax incentives for U.S. manufacturing and research.

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Reform Act”) was signed and enacted into law. The Tax Reform Act significantly revised the U.S. corporate income tax regime by, among other things, lowering the federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018, while also repealing the deduction for domestic production activities and implementing a territorial tax system. As a fiscal year taxpayer, the Company’s federal statutory tax rate reduction is effective January 1, 2018; therefore, the Company’s fiscal year 2018 estimated annual effective tax rate reflects the benefit from the reduced U.S. federal rate of 23.3% for a partial year. A number of other provisions will not impact the Company until fiscal year 2019, such as elimination of the domestic manufacturing deduction and U.S. taxation of foreign earnings.

As a result of the Tax Reform Act, the Company recognized a non-cash estimated tax benefit of $10.4 million related to the remeasurement of the Company’s net deferred tax liabilities at the lower statutory rate based on the timing of expected reversals. In accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, the Company recorded the estimated income tax impact of the Tax Reform Act. Although the $10.4 million tax benefit represents what the Company believes is a reasonable estimate of the income tax effects of the Tax Reform Act on its consolidated financial statements as of January 31, 2018, it is a provisional amount and will be impacted by the Company’s ongoing analysis of the legislation and full fiscal year 2018 financial results. Any adjustments to these provisional amounts will be reported as a component of income tax expense (benefit) in the reporting period in which any such adjustments are determined, which will be no later than the first quarter of fiscal year 2019.

23

Because of the complexity of the new Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (GILTI) tax rules, the Company continues to evaluate this provision of the Tax Reform Act and the application of ASC 740, Income Taxes. Under U.S. GAAP, the Company is allowed to make an accounting policy choice of either (1) treating taxes due on future U.S. inclusions in taxable income related to GILTI as a current period expense when incurred (the “period cost method”) or (2) factoring such amounts into the Company’s measurement of its deferred taxes (the ”deferred method”). The Company has not made a policy election related to potential GILTI tax as we continue to assess the impact of the legislation.

The Company periodically evaluates its valuation allowance requirements in light of changing facts and circumstances, and may adjust its deferred tax asset valuation allowances accordingly. It is reasonably possible that the Company will either add to, or reverse a portion of its existing deferred tax asset valuation allowances in the future. Such changes in the deferred tax asset valuation allowances will be reflected in the current operations through the Company’s effective income tax rate. During the three months ended January 31, 2018, there were no changes to the Company’s valuation allowances.

The Company’s liability for unrecognized tax benefits, including interest and penalties, was $3.1 million as of January 31, 2018 and $2.9 million as of October 31, 2017. The unrecognized tax benefits are presented in other long-term liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets with the exception of $0.2 million for the period ended January 31, 2018 which is presented in other current liabilities. During the next twelve months, it is reasonably possible that $1.1 million of the unrecognized tax benefits, if recognized, would affect the annual effective income tax rate. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes in its consolidated statement of income.

The Company regularly assesses the likelihood of an adverse outcome resulting from examinations to determine the adequacy of its tax reserves. As of January 31, 2018, the Company believes that it is more likely than not that the tax positions it has taken will be sustained upon the resolution of its audits resulting in no material impact on its consolidated financial position and the results of operations and cash flows. However, the final determination with respect to any tax audits, and any related litigation, could be materially different from the Company’s estimates and/or from its historical income tax provisions and income tax liabilities and could have a material effect on operating results and/or cash flows in the periods for which that determination is made. In addition, future period earnings may be adversely impacted by litigation costs, settlements, penalties, and/or interest assessments related to income tax examinations.

Note 17. Commitments and Contingencies

Market Risks: The Company is contingently liable under bid, performance and specialty bonds and has open standby letters of credit issued by the Company’s banks in favor of third parties as follows (in thousands):

Chassis Contingent Liabilities: The Company obtains certain vehicle chassis from automobile manufacturers under converter pool agreements. These agreements generally provide that the manufacturer will supply chassis at the Company’s various production facilities under the terms and conditions set forth in the agreement. The manufacturer does not transfer the certificate of origin to the Company and, accordingly, the chassis are treated as consigned inventory of the automobile manufacturer. Upon being put into production, the Company becomes obligated to pay the manufacturer for the chassis. Chassis are typically converted and delivered to customers within 90 to 120 days of receipt. If the chassis are not converted within this timeframe of delivery, the Company generally purchases the chassis and records the inventory or the Company is obligated to begin paying an interest charge on this inventory until purchased. The Company’s contingent liability under such agreements for future chassis inventory purchases was $67.4 million and $85.9 million at January 31, 2018 and October 31, 2017, respectively.

Repurchase Commitments: The Company has entered into repurchase agreements with certain lending institutions. The repurchase commitments are on an individual unit basis with a term from the date it is financed by the lending institution through payment date by the dealer or other customer, generally not exceeding two years. The Company’s outstanding obligations under such agreements were $257.9 million and $288.5 million as of January 31, 2018 and October 31, 2017, respectively. This value represents the gross value of all vehicles under repurchase agreements and does not take into consideration proceeds that would be received upon resale of repossessed vehicles, which would be used to reduce the Company’s ultimate net liability. Such agreements are customary in the industries in which the Company operates and the Company’s exposure to loss under such agreements is limited by the potential loss on the resale value of the inventory which is required to be repurchased. Losses incurred under such arrangements have not been

24

significant and the Company expects this pattern to continue into the future. The reserve for losses included in other liabilities on contracts outstanding at January 31, 2018 and October 31, 2017 is immaterial.

Guarantee Arrangements: The Company is party to multiple agreements whereby it guarantees indebtedness of others, including losses under loss pool agreements. The Company estimated that its maximum loss exposure under these contracts was $0.6 million at January 31, 2018 and October 31, 2017. Under the terms of these and various related agreements and upon the occurrence of certain events, the Company generally has the ability to, among other things, take possession of the underlying collateral. If the financial condition of the customers and/or dealers were to deteriorate and result in their inability to make payments, then additional accruals may be required. While the Company does not expect to experience losses under these agreements that are materially in excess of the amounts reserved, it cannot provide any assurance that the financial condition of the third parties will not deteriorate resulting in the third party’s inability to meet their obligations.

In the event that this occurs, the Company cannot guarantee that the collateral underlying the agreements will be available or sufficient to avoid losses materially in excess of the amounts reserved. Any losses under these guarantees would generally be mitigated by the value of any underlying collateral, including financed equipment, and are generally subject to the finance company’s ability to provide the Company clear title to foreclosed equipment and other conditions. During periods of economic weakness, collateral values generally decline and can contribute to higher exposure to losses.

Other Matters: The Company is subject to certain legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. Although the final results of all such matters and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that the ultimate resolution of all such matters and claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Actual results could vary, among other things, due to the uncertainties involved in litigation.

Note 18. Related Party Transactions

During the three months ended January 31, 2018 and January 28, 2017, the Company reimbursed expenses of its primary equity holder in the amount of $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively. These expenses are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company’s consolidated statements of income.

Certain production facilities and offices for two of the Company’s subsidiaries are leased from related parties owned by certain members of management. Rent expense under these arrangements totaled $0.2 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended January 31, 2018, and January 28, 2017, respectively.

The Company engaged with an information technology, software and consulting company (the “IT Consulting Company”) in which the Company’s CEO had a material equity interest. The IT Consulting Company provided software development and installation to the Company. The Company made payments of $1.4 million during the three months ended January 28, 2017 to the IT Consulting Company. The amounts paid to the IT Consulting Company included payments which are made to another unrelated consulting company. Excluding the payments to this unrelated consulting company, the payments made to the IT Consulting Company were $0.6 million during the three months ended January 28, 2017. The Company’s CEO has recused himself from receiving any direct economic benefit from the payments made to the IT Consulting Company for the services rendered to the Company. On October 27, 2017 the IT Consulting Company was sold to an unrelated third party and therefore any future consulting business that the Company has undertaken or will undertake with the IT Consulting Company after such date will not be considered a related party transaction.

Note 19. Business Segment Information

The Company is organized into three reportable segments based on management’s process for making operating decisions, allocating capital and measuring performance, and based on the similarity of products, customers served, common use of facilities, and economic characteristics. The Company’s segments are as follows:

Fire & Emergency: This segment includes KME, E-One, Inc., Ferrara, American Emergency Vehicles, Inc., Leader Emergency Vehicles, Inc., Horton Enterprises, Inc. and Wheeled Coach, Inc. These business units manufacture and market commercial and custom fire and emergency vehicles primarily for fire departments, airports, other governmental units, contractors, hospitals and other care providers in the United States and other countries.

Commercial: This segment includes Collins Bus, Champion Bus, Inc., Goshen Coach, Inc., ENC, ElDorado National (Kansas), Inc., Revability, Capacity and Lay-Mor. Collins Bus manufactures, markets and distributes school buses, normally referred to as Type A school buses, as well as shuttle buses used for churches, transit authorities, hotels and resorts, retirement centers and other similar uses. Champion Bus, Inc., Goshen Coach, Inc., ENC, ElDorado National (Kansas), Inc. and Revability manufacture, market and distribute shuttle buses and mobility vans for transit, airport car rental and hotel/motel shuttles, tour and charter operations and other

25

uses under several well-established brand names. Capacity manufactures, markets and distributes trucks used in terminal type operations, i.e., rail yards, warehouses, rail terminals and shipping terminals/ports. Lay-Mor manufactures, markets and distributes industrial sweepers for both the commercial and rental markets.

Recreation: This segment includes REV Recreation Group, Inc. (“RRG”), Goldshield Fiberglass, Inc. (“Goldshield”), Renegade, Midwest and Lance Camper, and their respective manufacturing facilities, service and parts divisions. RRG primarily manufactures, markets and distributes Class A and Class C mobile RVs in both gas and diesel models. Renegade primarily manufacturers Class C and Super C RVs and heavy-duty special application trailers. Goldshield manufactures, markets and distributes fiberglass reinforced molded parts to a diverse cross section of original equipment manufacturers and other commercial and industrial customers, including various components for RRG, which is one of Goldshield’s primary customers. Midwest manufactures Class B RVs and luxury vans. Lance designs, engineers and manufactures truck campers, towable campers and toy haulers.

For purposes of measuring financial performance of its business segments, the Company does not allocate to individual business segments costs or items that are of a corporate nature. The caption “Corporate and Other” includes corporate office expenses, results of insignificant operations, intersegment eliminations and income and expense not allocated to reportable segments.

Identifiable assets of the business segments exclude general corporate assets, which principally consist of cash and cash equivalents, certain property, plant and equipment and certain other assets pertaining to corporate and other centralized activities.

Intersegment sales generally include amounts invoiced by a segment for work performed for another segment. Amounts are based on actual work performed and agreed-upon pricing which is intended to be reflective of the contribution made by the supplying business segment. All intersegment transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

In considering the financial performance of the business, the chief operating decision maker analyzes the primary financial performance measure of Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income for the relevant period before depreciation and amortization, interest expense and provision for income taxes, as adjusted for transaction expenses, sponsor expenses, restructuring costs, loss on early extinguishment of debt, legal settlements, non-cash purchase accounting expenses, stock based compensation expense and deferred purchase price payment which the Company believes are not indicative of the Company’s ongoing operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure defined by U.S. GAAP, but is computed using amounts that are determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. A reconciliation of this performance measure to income before provision for income taxes is included below.

The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors and used by management for measuring profitability because the measure excludes the impact of certain items which management believes has less bearing on the Company’s core operating performance. The Company believes that utilizing Adjusted EBITDA allows for a more meaningful comparison of operating fundamentals between companies within the Company’s industry by eliminating the impact of capital structure and taxation differences between the companies.

The Company also adjusts for exceptional items which are determined to be those that in management’s judgment need to be disclosed by virtue of their size, nature or incidence, which include non-cash items and items settled in cash. In determining whether an event or transaction is exceptional, management considers quantitative as well as qualitative factors such as the frequency or predictability of occurrence. This is consistent with the way that financial performance is measured by management and reported to our Board of Directors, assists in providing a meaningful analysis of the Company’s operating performance and used as a measurement in incentive compensation for management.

Selected financial information of the Company’s segments for the three months ended January 31, 2018 and January 28, 2017, is as follows (in thousands):

Provided below is a reconciliation of segment Adjusted EBITDA to loss before benefit for income taxes (in thousands):

Note 20. Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income includes all changes in equity during a period except those that resulted from investments by or distributions to the Company’s shareholders. Other comprehensive income or loss refers to revenues, expenses, gains and losses that are included in comprehensive income, but excluded from net income as these amounts are recorded directly as an adjustment to shareholders’ equity.

The components of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) are as follows (in thousands):

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

This management’s discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements contained in this Form 10-Q as well as the Management’s Discussion and Analysis and Risk Factors and audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on December 21, 2017 and in Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Overview

REV is a leading designer, manufacturer and distributor of specialty vehicles and related aftermarket parts and services. We provide customized vehicle solutions for applications including: essential needs (ambulances, fire apparatus, school buses, mobility vans and municipal transit buses), industrial and commercial (terminal trucks, cut-away buses and street sweepers) and consumer leisure (recreational vehicles “RVs” and luxury buses). Our brand portfolio consists of 30 well-established principal vehicle brands including many of the most recognizable names within our served markets. Several of our brands pioneered their specialty vehicle product categories and date back more than 50 years. We believe that in most of our markets, we hold the first or second market share position and approximately 59% of our net sales during the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 came from products where we believe we hold such share positions.

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2018, our net sales were $514.9 million, which were $71.9 million, or 16.2%, greater than the same period in the prior year. This increase in net sales was due to increases in all of our segments. In our Fire & Emergency (“F&E”) segment, we expect net sales to increase in fiscal year 2018 at a rate slightly better than the sales percent increase for the overall company due to increased unit volume, as a result of the full year impact of the Ferrara Fire Apparatus (“Ferrara”) acquisition (which was acquired in April 2017), and strong end-market demand across both our fire and ambulance product lines. In our Commercial segment for fiscal year 2018, we expect net sales to increase at a rate below the net sales percent increase for the entire company due to the relative growth in the various end markets served by the Commercial segment. In our Recreation segment, we expect net sales to increase in fiscal year 2018 at a rate higher than the net sales percent increase for the overall company as a result of higher unit sales volume in Class C RV units due to end market demand growth, expectation for continued growth in market share across all RV classes and as a result of the Renegade, Midwest Automotive Designs (“Midwest”) and Lance Camper Manufacturing (“Lance”) acquisitions.

Gross profit and gross margin percentage were $52.6 million and 10.2%, respectively, during the first quarter of fiscal year 2018. Gross profit was $5.0 million higher than the first quarter of fiscal year 2017. Gross profit percentage was 50 basis points lower than the first quarter of fiscal year 2017. This decrease in gross profit percentage was primarily due to a sales mix in our Fire & Emergency and Commercial segments, offset by increased gross profit from our Recreation segment.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) in the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 were $41.0 million which is a decrease of $15.5 million compared to the first quarter of fiscal year 2017. This decrease was primarily due to lower stock-based compensation expense, offset by SG&A expenses from acquired companies. The decrease in stock-based compensation expense was primarily due to larger than normal expense in fiscal year 2017 as a result of our initial public offering (“IPO”).

Amortization of intangible assets was $4.7 million during the first quarter of fiscal year 2018, compared to $2.6 million during the first quarter of fiscal year 2017. The increase in amortization expense was due primarily to the amortization of the intangible assets recorded as part of the acquisition of Renegade in December 2016 and the acquisition of Ferrara and Midwest in April 2017. The Company has not recorded any amortization expense for intangible assets acquired in the acquisition of Lance because as of January 31, 2018, the valuation of intangible assets acquired is not complete and the amount would be immaterial. We expect amortization expense to be $16 to $18 million in fiscal year 2018.

Interest expense was $5.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2018, which is a decrease of $2.1 million compared to the first quarter of fiscal year 2017. Interest expense during the quarter was comprised of interest for the Company’s term loan agreement (“Term Loan” and “Term Loan Agreement”), ABL Facility, chassis pool interest expense, and interest paid to customers for advance payments.

Net income was $9.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2018, compared to net loss of $13.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017. Adjusted net income in the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 was $9.7 million, which is a 72.0% increase over $5.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017.

Diluted net income per common share was $0.14 for the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 compared to a loss of $0.26 in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017. Adjusted diluted net income per common share was $0.15 per share for the first quarter of fiscal year 2018, which is a 36.4% increase from $0.11 in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017 even with greater weighted average shares outstanding

during the current year quarter versus the prior year. A reconciliation of net income (loss) to adjusted net income is included in section “Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income” below.

Adjusted EBITDA was $21.3 million during the first quarter of fiscal year 2018, an increase of $0.2 million or 0.9%, from $21.1 million during the first quarter of fiscal year 2017. This increase in Adjusted EBITDA was the result of acquisitions and higher net sales and gross profit from certain business segments offset by reductions in gross profit in other businesses described below. A detailed reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDA is included in section “Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income” below.

Capital expenditures were $13.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2018, which were primarily comprised of expenditures for our ongoing ERP system implementation, manufacturing facility equipment and improvements, new product tooling, and the continued rollout of our online parts sales infrastructure.

Segments

We serve a diversified customer base primarily in the United States through the following segments:

Fire & Emergency – The Fire & Emergency segment sells fire apparatus equipment under the Emergency One, Kovatch Mobile Equipment and Ferrara brands and ambulances under the American Emergency Vehicles, Horton Emergency Vehicles, Leader Emergency Vehicles, Marque, McCoy Miller, Road Rescue, Wheeled Coach and Frontline brands. We believe we are the largest manufacturer by unit volume of fire and emergency vehicles in the United States and have one of the industry’s broadest portfolios of products including Type I ambulances (aluminum body mounted on a heavy truck-style chassis), Type II ambulances (van conversion ambulance typically favored for non-emergency patient transportation), Type III ambulances (aluminum body mounted on a van-style chassis), pumpers (fire apparatus on a custom or commercial chassis with a water pump and small tank to extinguish fires), ladder trucks (fire apparatus with stainless steel or aluminum ladders), tanker trucks and rescue and other vehicles. Each of our individual brands is distinctly positioned and targets certain price and feature points in the market such that dealers often carry and customers often buy more than one REV Fire & Emergency product line. In April 2017, we acquired Ferrara Fire Apparatus, a leader in custom fire apparatus and rescue vehicles.

Commercial – Our Commercial segment serves the bus market through the following principal brands: Collins Bus, Goshen Coach, ENC, ElDorado National, Krystal Coach, Federal Coach, Champion and World Trans. We serve the terminal truck market through the Capacity brand, the sweeper market through the Lay-Mor brand and the mobility van market through our Revability brand. We are a leading producer of small- and medium-sized buses, Type A school buses, transit buses, terminal trucks and street sweepers in the United States. Our products in the Commercial segment include cut-away buses (customized body built on various types and sizes of commercial chassis), transit buses (large municipal buses where we build our own chassis and body), luxury buses (bus-style limo or high-end luxury conversions), street sweepers (three- and four-wheel versions used in road construction activities), terminal trucks (specialized vehicle which moves freight in warehouses or intermodal yards and ports), Type A school buses (small school bus built on commercial chassis), and mobility vans (mini-van converted to be utilized by wheelchair passengers). Within each market segment, we produce a large number of customized configurations to address the diverse needs of our customers.

Recreation – Our Recreation segment serves the RV market through six principal brands: American Coach, Fleetwood RV, Monaco Coach, Holiday Rambler, Renegade, Midwest and Lance. We believe our brand portfolio contains some of the longest standing, most recognized brands in the RV industry. Under these six brands, REV provides a variety of highly recognized models such as: American Eagle, Signature, Marquis, Bounder and Pace Arrow, among others. Our products in the Recreation segment include Class A motorized RVs (motorhomes built on a heavy duty chassis with either diesel or gas engine configurations), Class C and “Super C” motorized RVs (motorhomes built on a commercial truck or van chassis), a line of heavy-duty special application trailers, and, as a result of the acquisition of Midwest, Class B RVs (motorhomes built out on a van chassis). The Recreation segment also includes Goldshield Fiberglass, which produces a wide range of custom molded fiberglass products for the RV and broader industrial markets. In December 2016, we acquired Renegade RV, a leader in the “Super C” segment of the RV market and producer of a line of heavy-duty special application trailers. In April 2017, we acquired Midwest, a leading producer of Class B RVs and custom luxury vans. In January 2018, we acquired Lance, a producer of truck campers, towable campers and toy haulers.

Factors Affecting Our Performance

The primary factors affecting our results of operations include:

General Economic Conditions

Our business is impacted by the U.S. economic environment, employment levels, consumer confidence, municipal spending, changes in interest rates and instability in securities markets around the world, among other factors. In particular, changes in the U.S. economic climate can impact demand in key end markets.

RV purchases are discretionary in nature and therefore sensitive to the availability of financing, consumer confidence, unemployment levels, levels of disposable income and changing levels of consumer home equity, among other factors. The 2008 recession caused consumers to reduce their discretionary spending, which negatively affected sales volumes for RVs. Terminal truck sales volumes are also impacted by economic conditions and industrial output, as these factors impact our end-market customers for these products, which include shipping ports, trucking/distribution hubs and rail terminal operators. Although RV and terminal truck sales have increased in recent years, these markets are affected by general U.S. and global economic conditions, which create risks that future economic downturns will further reduce consumer demand and negatively impact our sales.

While less economically sensitive than the Recreation segment, our Fire & Emergency and Commercial segments are also impacted by the overall economic environment. Local tax revenues are an important source of funding for fire and emergency response departments. As fire and emergency products and school buses are typically a larger cost item for municipalities and their service life is relatively long, their purchase is more deferrable, which can result in reduced demand for our products.

A decrease in employment levels, consumer confidence or the availability of financing, or other adverse economic events, or the failure of actual demand for our products to meet our estimates, could negatively affect the demand for our products. Any decline in overall customer demand in markets in which we operate could have a material adverse effect on our operating performance.

Cost Management Initiatives

Our recent operating results reflect the impact of our ongoing initiatives to lower our operating costs to expand our profit margins. Purchased materials, including chassis, represent our largest component of costs of sales. We operate a centralized strategic procurement organization dedicated to reducing our overall level of materials spend across our three segments, while simplifying and standardizing suppliers and parts.

Impact of Acquisitions

For the past several years, a significant component of our growth has been the addition of businesses or business units through acquisitions. We typically incur upfront costs as we integrate acquired businesses and implement our operating philosophy at newly acquired companies, including consolidation of supplies and materials, changes to production processes at acquired facilities to implement manufacturing improvements and other restructuring initiatives. The benefits of these integration efforts may not positively impact our financial results until subsequent periods. Operational and financial integration of our recently acquired businesses could be ongoing.

In accordance with GAAP, we recognize acquired assets and liabilities at fair value. This includes the recognition of identified intangible assets and goodwill which, in the case of definite-life intangible assets, are then amortized over their expected useful lives, which typically results in an increase in amortization expense. In addition, assets acquired and liabilities assumed generally include tangible assets, as well as contingent assets and liabilities.

Stock Compensation Expense

As a result of our IPO, outstanding stock options which had previously been recorded as a liability on the Company’s balance sheet were reclassified to permanent equity. On the date of the IPO, vesting of 846,000 of these liability awards were accelerated, and there were 1,528,000 of vested liability option awards. All liability option awards were re-measured at fair value based upon the IPO offering price of $22.00 per share. Also as a result of the IPO, the Company recorded stock compensation expense of $13.3 million due to the change in fair value of the liability option awards and $8.9 million due to stock options which immediately vested.

Key Performance Indicators

In assessing the performance of our business, we consider a variety of operational and financial measures. These measures include net sales, units sold, selling, general and administrative expenses, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income. In assessing segment performance, our chief executive officer, as the chief operating decision maker, analyzes the primary financial measure of Adjusted EBITDA.

Net Sales and Units Sold

We evaluate net sales and units sold because it helps us measure the impact of economic trends, the effectiveness of our marketing, the response of customers to new product launches and model changes, and the effect of competition over a given period. We recognize revenue for sales of completed vehicles upon shipment or delivery and acceptance by the dealer or customer as specified by the relevant dealer or customer purchase order.

Our units represent a wide range of products at various price points, with higher value-added units at higher price points typically resulting in higher gross margins. Additionally, large orders of similar units typically provide operational efficiencies that contribute to higher gross margins. As such, our management also utilizes unit volume sales mix to analyze our business.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

We evaluate our selling, general and administrative expenses in order to identify areas where we can further invest or create savings. Such investments or spending reductions could include items such as third-party services and cost of administrative processes. These expenses consist primarily of personnel costs, sales and marketing expenses, as well as other expenses associated with facilities unrelated to our manufacturing and supply chain network, internal management expenses and expenses for finance, information systems, legal, business development, human resources, purchasing and other administrative costs.

The components of our selling, general and administrative expenses may not be identical to those of our competitors. As a result, data in this document regarding our operating and administrative expenses may not be comparable to similar expenses of our competitors. We expect that our selling, general and administrative expenses will increase in future periods as we grow our businesses and due to additional legal, accounting, insurance and other expenses we expect to incur as a result of being a public company.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income are the primary metrics we use to evaluate the financial performance of our business. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income are also frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our markets. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income are useful performance measures and we use them to facilitate a comparison of our operating performance on a consistent basis from period to period and to provide for a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. In addition to Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income, we also utilize the metric of Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales as a complimentary measurement of performance among our businesses and versus our competitors. We also use Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income as primary methods for planning and forecasting overall expected performance and for evaluating on a quarterly and annual basis actual results against such expectations, and as a performance evaluation metric in determining achievement of certain compensation programs and plans for employees, including our senior executives.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income are not presentations made in accordance with GAAP, nor are they measures of financial condition or liquidity and they should not be considered as an alternative to net cash provided by (used in) operating activities or net income, respectively, for the period determined in accordance with GAAP. See “Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income” below for a discussion of our use of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income and reconciliations of these measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measure.
