Financial Performance

3 Insights

Net sales reached $1,506.7 million, up from $1,320.8 million in the same period last year. This growth was driven by increased unit sales and shifts in segment and product mix.

Gross profit reached $862.9 million, up from $759.4 million in the prior year, primarily due to the increase in net sales. However, consolidated gross margin remained flat at 57% as unfavorable segment mix was offset by favorable product mix within certain segments.

Operating income reached $342.0 million, up from $284.4 million in the prior year, as a result of increased sales and lower operating expenses as a percent of revenue. Improved operating income dollar performance in fitness, marine, and auto OEM was partially offset by decreases in outdoor and aviation.
