 Thor’s management team recently developed a three-year strategic plan focused on
growth and margin improvement
 The Strategic Plan was developed using a bottoms-up approach involving each of the
Company’s operating subsidiaries and management teams
 Key elements of growth include product innovation and capacity expansion – targeting
mid- to high-single-digit growth
 Key elements of margin expansion include improved product quality, value added
content and features, and volume leverage – targeting 200 basis points of gross margin
improvement over the planning horizon
RV Expansion
 On June 3, 2013, Thor acquired the RV production facilities in Wakarusa, Indiana
formerly operated by Navistar to expand motorized production to meet current demand
and to vertically integrate RV paint operations
 Nearly one million square feet of production space and 35 paint booths on 150 acres
 Final transition plans to be implemented when the seller exits, which is expected late this
summer
Three-Year Strategic Plan
18
 On July 31, 2013 Thor announced an agreement to sell its bus business to Allied
Specialty Vehicles for $100 million in cash, subject to closing adjustments
 Thor’s bus business includes Champion Bus, Inc., General Coach America, Inc., Goshen
Coach, Inc., El Dorado National California, Inc., and El Dorado National Kansas, Inc.
which generated sales of approximately $449 million for the fiscal year ended July 31,
2013
 Thor will continue to operate the bus business until closing, which is expected to occur
on or before November 1, 2013
 The Company does not anticipate any impairment to goodwill or intangible assets of the
bus business as a result of the sale
 Divesting the bus business will allow Thor to focus on maintaining and growing the
Company’s leadership position in the core RV business
 Results of the Bus segment will be presented as discontinued operations in Thor’s
annual report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2013 to be released in late
September 2013
Sale of the Bus Business
19
 Consolidated sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 were $1.05 billion, up 13% from $926.5 million in
the third quarter last year, based on strength in recreational vehicle (RV) sales. Net income for the
third quarter was $43.8 million, up 6% from $41.3 million in the prior-year third quarter. Diluted
earnings per share (EPS) for the third quarter was $0.82, up 5% from $0.78 in the third quarter last
year.
 Included in net income and EPS for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 were non-cash goodwill and
intangible asset impairment charges of approximately $11.5 million. This included a $4.7 million
intangible asset impairment charge triggered by the expected sale of the net assets associated with the
Company’s ambulance product line, and a $6.8 million goodwill impairment charge relating to the bus
segment reporting unit which historically included the ambulance product line. These charges reduced
EPS by $0.15 for the quarter. Excluding these items, EPS would have been $0.97 for the quarter.
 Total RV segment sales were $929.8 million, up 15% from $807.2 million in the third quarter last year.
RV segment income before tax was $77.6 million, up 31% from $59.2 million in the prior-year period.
 Towable RV sales were $742.5 million, up 9% from $680.5 million in the prior-year period. Income
before tax was $62.5 million, up 22% from $51.1 million in the third quarter last year. Towable RV
income before tax increased to 8.4% of revenues from 7.5% a year ago, as a result of increased
volumes and specific actions taken to improve operating efficiencies.
 Motorized RV sales were $187.3 million, up 48% from $126.7 million in the prior-year third quarter.
Income before tax was $15.1 million, up 86% from $8.1 million last year. As a percent of revenues,
motorized RV income before tax rose to 8.1% of revenues from 6.4% a year ago, driven by improved
product mix, volumes and enhanced operating efficiencies.
 Bus segment sales were $119.4 million, up slightly from $119.3 million in the third quarter last year.
Income before tax was a loss of $7.7 million, compared to income of $2.8 million in the third quarter
last year. Bus segment income before tax was unfavorably impacted by the non-cash impairment
charges relating to goodwill and intangibles of approximately $11.5 million.

  • 19. 19  Consolidated sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 were $1.05 billion, up 13% from $926.5 million in the third quarter last year, based on strength in recreational vehicle (RV) sales. Net income for the third quarter was $43.8 million, up 6% from $41.3 million in the prior-year third quarter. Diluted earnings per share (EPS) for the third quarter was $0.82, up 5% from $0.78 in the third quarter last year.  Included in net income and EPS for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 were non-cash goodwill and intangible asset impairment charges of approximately $11.5 million. This included a $4.7 million intangible asset impairment charge triggered by the expected sale of the net assets associated with the Company’s ambulance product line, and a $6.8 million goodwill impairment charge relating to the bus segment reporting unit which historically included the ambulance product line. These charges reduced EPS by $0.15 for the quarter. Excluding these items, EPS would have been $0.97 for the quarter.  Total RV segment sales were $929.8 million, up 15% from $807.2 million in the third quarter last year. RV segment income before tax was $77.6 million, up 31% from $59.2 million in the prior-year period.  Towable RV sales were $742.5 million, up 9% from $680.5 million in the prior-year period. Income before tax was $62.5 million, up 22% from $51.1 million in the third quarter last year. Towable RV income before tax increased to 8.4% of revenues from 7.5% a year ago, as a result of increased volumes and specific actions taken to improve operating efficiencies.  Motorized RV sales were $187.3 million, up 48% from $126.7 million in the prior-year third quarter. Income before tax was $15.1 million, up 86% from $8.1 million last year. As a percent of revenues, motorized RV income before tax rose to 8.1% of revenues from 6.4% a year ago, driven by improved product mix, volumes and enhanced operating efficiencies.  Bus segment sales were $119.4 million, up slightly from $119.3 million in the third quarter last year. Income before tax was a loss of $7.7 million, compared to income of $2.8 million in the third quarter last year.
