The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security ("CARES") Act was signed into law on March 27, 2020 to help alleviate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in the U.S. We ~~are taking~~took advantage of the employer payroll tax deferral offered by the CARES Act, which ~~allows~~allowed us to defer the payment of employer payroll taxes for the period from March 27, 2020 to December 31, 2020. The deferred employer payroll tax liability was $8.1 million as of November ~~27, 2021 was $12.4 million and will be payable in equal installments in~~26, 2022. We are required to remit this remaining deferred tax balance on or before December ~~2021 and December~~31, 2022. We also took advantage of a tax credit granted to companies under the CARES Act who continued to pay their employees when operations were fully or partially suspended. The refundable tax credit available through the end of the third quarter of Fiscal 2020 reflected in cost of goods sold on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income was approximately $4.0 million. The entire amount is expected to be received during calendar year 2022. As of November ~~27, 2021, $3.2~~26, 2022, $0.8 million remains outstanding within other current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

~~Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") Topic 740,~~ ~~Income Taxes:Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes~~, was adopted in the first quarter of Fiscal 2022. The new standard eliminates certain exceptions to Topic 740's general principles, improves consistent application and simplifies its application. We adopted the new guidance in the first quarter of Fiscal 2022, and there was not a material impact to our financial condition, results of operations or disclosures.

~~Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements~~

In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ~~Accounting Standards Update ("ASU")~~ASU 2020-06, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) which reduces the number of models used to account for convertible instruments, amends diluted earnings per share ("EPS") calculations for convertible instruments, and amends the requirements for a contract (or embedded derivative) that is potentially settled in an entity's own shares to be classified in equity. Certain disclosure requirements were also added to increase transparency and decision-usefulness regarding a convertible instrument's terms and features. Additionally, the if-converted method must be used for including convertible instruments ~~must be used~~ in diluted EPS as opposed to the treasury stock method. The new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2021, which is our Fiscal 2023. Early adoption is permitted using either a modified retrospective or full retrospective approach. We ~~expect to adopt~~adopted the new guidance in the first quarter of Fiscal 2023 using the modified retrospective approach, resulting in a decrease to additional paid-in capital of $62.0 million, an increase to long-term debt of $43.8 million, a decrease in the deferred income tax liability of $10.8 million, and an increase to beginning retained earnings of $29.0 million. In addition, the adoption of the amended guidance reduced our non-cash interest expense in the first quarter of Fiscal 2023 by $3.6 million (pre-tax). We will prospectively utilize the if-converted method to calculate the impact of our convertible instruments on diluted EPS. Under the if-converted method, the 4.7 million shares underlying our convertible instruments are assumed to have been outstanding at the beginning of the reporting period, and any interest expense related to these instruments is excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS. Refer to Note 15 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more information on the change from the treasury stock method to the if-converted method.

quarter of Fiscal 2023 and have not yet evaluated the impact the adoption of this guidance will have on our financial condition, results of operations or disclosures; however, the new guidance is expected to change our diluted EPS reporting.

~~In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04,~~ ~~Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848):Facilitation of Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting~~, which provides practical expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The expedients and exceptions provided by this guidance apply only to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference the London interbank offered rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued as a result of reference rate reform. This guidance is not applicable to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated after December 31, 2022. The guidance can be applied immediately through December 31, 2022. We will adopt this standard when LIBOR is discontinued and do not expect a material impact to our financial condition, results of operations or disclosures based on the current debt portfolio and capital structure.

Note 2. Business Combinations

On August 31, 2021, we purchased 100% of the equity interests of Barletta Boat Company, LLC and Three Limes, LLC (collectively, "Barletta"), a manufacturer of high-quality, premium pontoon boats that are sold through a network of independent authorized dealers.

~~The acquisition of Barletta resulted in a newly created Marine reportable segment that includes Barletta and Chris-Craft operating segments.~~

We acquired Barletta for a purchase price of $286.3 million, including cash payments of $240.1 million, $25.0 million in common stock issued to the sellers (subject to a discount noted below), and contingent consideration from earnout provisions. The common stock fair value included in the purchase price reflects a 12% discount, due to the lack of marketability as these are unregistered shares that have a one-year lockup restriction, which reduced the value of the common stock to $22.0 million. The contingent consideration includes both a potential stock payout as well as a potential cash payment based on achievement of certain financial performance metrics over the next few years. The maximum payout under the earnout is $50.0 million in cash and $15.0 million in stock if all metrics are achieved. The fair value of the earnout atas of August 31, 2021 was $24.2 million. ~~The~~As of November 26, 2022 and August 27, 2022, the fair value of the earnout aswas $40.2 million and $39.8 million, respectively. The portion of ~~November 27, 2021 was $30.6 million, of which $13.8 million~~the earnout liability that will be settled within a year is included in other current liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, and ~~$16.8 million~~the remaining earnout liability is included in other long-term liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of November 26, 2022 and August 27, 2022, $21.7 million and $21.3 million was included in other current liabilities, respectively, and $18.5 million and $18.5 million was included in other long-term liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, respectively.

The total purchase price was allocated to the acquired net tangible and intangible assets of Barletta, based on their preliminary fair values at the date of the acquisition. ~~We expect to finalize~~This resulted in the ~~allocation~~recognition of ~~the purchase price when our valuation~~goodwill of ~~the acquired~~$136.1 million and other intangible assets ~~goodwill, and tax accounts is complete.~~

$111.4 million. Goodwill from the Barletta acquisition is recognized in our ~~newly created~~ Marine segment. ~~We expect that the full amount of goodwill will be deductible for tax purposes.~~

The other intangible assets acquired include a trade name, dealer network, and backlog. The trade name has an indefinite life, while the ~~backlog and~~ dealer network ~~will be~~is being amortized on a straight line basis over 12 years. The backlog, which was being amortized over 10 months, ~~and~~ 12 ~~years, respectively.~~was fully amortized as of August 27, 2022. We finalized the allocation of the purchase price in the third quarter of fiscal 2022.

~~Table of Contents~~

Total transaction costs related to the Barletta acquisition were $3.1 million, of which $2.4 million were expensed during the first quarter of Fiscal ~~2022 and $0.7 million were expensed during the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2021.~~2022. Transaction costs ~~are~~were included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of ~~Income and Comprehensive~~ Income.

~~Pro forma results of operations for this acquisition have not been presented as they were immaterial to the reported results.~~

Note 3. Business Segments

We have 7seven operating segments: 1) Grand Design towables, 2) Winnebago towables, 3) Winnebago motorhomes, 4) Newmar motorhomes, 5) Chris-Craft marine, 6) Barletta marine and 7) Winnebago specialty vehicles. Financial performance is evaluated based on each operating segment's Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA"), as defined below, which excludes certain corporate administration expenses and non-operating income and expense.

The acquisition of Barletta resulted in a newly created Marine reportable segment effective for the first quarter of Fiscal 2022. The segment consists of Barletta and our existing Chris-Craft operating segment. Prior year amounts for Chris-Craft have been reclassified from Corporate / All Other category to the Marine segment.

Our 3three reportable segments are: Towable (an aggregation of the Grand Design towables and the Winnebago towables operating segments); Motorhome (an aggregation of the Winnebago motorhomes and Newmar motorhomes operating segments); and Marine (an aggregation of the ~~Chris Craft~~Chris-Craft marine and Barletta marine operating segments). Towable is comprised of non-motorized products that are generally towed by another vehicle, along with other related manufactured products and services. Motorhome is comprised of products that include a motorized chassis, along with other related manufactured products and services. Marine is comprised of products that include boats, along with other related manufactured products and services.

The Corporate / All Other category includes the Winnebago specialty vehicles operating segment as well as certain corporate administration expenses related to the oversight of the enterprise, such as corporate leadership and administration costs.

Identifiable assets of the reportable segments exclude general corporate assets, which principally consist of cash and cash equivalents and certain deferred tax balances. The general corporate assets are included in the Corporate / All Other category.

Our Chief Executive Officer (the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM")) regularly reviews consolidated financial results in their entirety and operating segment financial information through Adjusted EBITDA and has ultimate responsibility for enterprise decisions. Our CODM is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the consolidated enterprise, reportable segments and between operating segments. Management of each operating segment has responsibility for operating decisions, allocating resources and assessing performance within their respective operating segment. The accounting policies of all reportable segments are the same as those described in Note 1 in the Notes to ~~the~~ Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of Part II of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August ~~28, 2021.~~27, 2022.

Table of Contents

We monitor and evaluate operating performance of our reportable segments based on Adjusted EBITDA. We believe disclosing Adjusted EBITDA is useful to securities analysts, investors and other interested parties when evaluating companies in our industries. EBITDA is defined as net income before interest expense, provision for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization expense. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income before interest expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, and other pretax adjustments made in order to present comparable results period over period. Examples of items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA include acquisition-related costs, litigation reserves, ~~restructuring expenses, gain or loss on sale of property, plant~~ and ~~equipment,~~ contingent consideration fair value ~~adjustment, and non-operating income or loss.~~adjustment.

Financial information by reportable segment is as follows:

Note 4. Investments and Fair Value Measurements

In determining the fair value of financial assets and liabilities, we utilize market data or other assumptions that we believe market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability in the principal or most advantageous market and adjust for non-performance and/or other risks associated with us as well as counterparties, as appropriate. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified using the following hierarchy, which is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation as of the measurement date:

Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices which are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities accessible at the measurement date.

Level 2 — Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.

Assets that Fund Deferred Compensation

Our assets that fund deferred compensation are marketable equity securities measured at fair value using quoted market prices and primarily consist of equity-based mutual funds. These securities, used to fund the Executive Share Option Plan and the Executive Deferred Compensation Plan, are classified as Level 1 as they are traded in an active market for which closing stock prices are readily available. Refer to Note ~~10 of~~11 in the Notes to ~~the~~ Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of Part II of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August ~~28, 2021~~27, 2022 for additional information regarding these plans.

The proportion of the assets that will fund options which expire within a year are included in prepaid expenses and other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The remaining assets are classified as non-current and are included in other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Contingent Consideration

Contingent consideration represents the earnout liability related to the Barletta acquisition and is valued using a probability-weighted scenario analysis of projected ~~EBITDA and~~ gross profit results and discounted at a risk-free rate. The contingent consideration is classified as Level 3. Actual ~~EBITDA and~~ gross profit results may differ significantly from those used in the estimate above, which may affect future payments. Changes in future payments will be reflected in future operating results as they occur.

The following table provides a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of the contingent consideration:


	Three Months Ended

Table of Contents

The fair value of the earnout liability that will be settled within a year is included in other current liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The remaining earnout liability is included in other long-term liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

Certain financial instruments are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These assets primarily include goodwill, intangible assets, property, plant and equipment, and right-of-use lease assets. These assets were originally recognized at amounts equal to the fair value determined at date of acquisition or purchase. If certain triggering events occur, or if an annual impairment test is required, we will evaluate the non-financial asset for impairment. If an impairment has occurred, the asset will be written down to its current estimated fair value. No impairments were recorded for non-financial assets in the three months ended November ~~27, 2021~~26, 2022 or November ~~28, 2020.~~27, 2021.

Assets and Liabilities Not Measured at Fair Value

Certain financial instruments are not measured at fair value but are recorded at carrying amounts approximating fair value based on their short-term nature. These financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable, other payables, and long-term debt. If these instruments were measured at fair value in the financial statements, they would be classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of our long-term debt was determined using current quoted prices in active markets for our publicly traded debt obligations, which is classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. See Note 9 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of Part I of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the fair value of our long-term debt.

Note 8. Product Warranties

We provide certain service and warranty on our products. From time to time, we also voluntarily incur costs for certain warranty-type expenses occurring after the normal warranty period expires to help protect the reputation of our products and maintain the goodwill of our customers. Estimated costs related to product warranty are accrued at the time of sale and are based upon historical warranty and service claims experience. Adjustments are made to accruals as claim data and cost experience becomes available.

In addition to the costs associated with the contractual warranty coverage provided on products, we also occasionally incur costs as a result of additional service actions not covered by warranties, including product recalls and customer satisfaction actions. Although we estimate and reserve for the cost of these service actions when probable and estimable, there can be no assurance that expense levels will remain at current levels or such reserves will continue to be adequate.

~~Note 9. Long-Term Debt~~Credit Agreements

On July 15, 2022, we amended and restated our existing asset-backed revolving credit agreement ("ABL Credit Facility") to, among other things, increase the commitments available from $192.5 million to $350.0 million, and extend the maturity date from October 22, 2024 to July 15, 2027 (subject to certain factors which may accelerate the maturity date). The $350.0 million credit facility is on a revolving basis, subject to availability under a borrowing base consisting of eligible accounts receivable and eligible inventory. The ABL is available for issuance of letters of credit to a specified limit of $35.0 million. We pay a commitment fee of 0.25% based on the average daily amount of the facility available, but unused during the most recent quarter. We can elect to base the interest rate on various rates plus specific spreads depending on the borrowing amount outstanding. If drawn, interest on ABL borrowings is at a floating rate based upon our election, either term SOFR or REVSOFR30 (as defined in the credit agreement), plus, in each case, a credit spread adjustment of 0.10%, as well as an applicable spread between 1.25% and 1.75%, depending on the usage of the facility during the most recent quarter. Based on current usage, we would pay an applicable spread of 1.25%. In connection with the amendment, we capitalized $1.2 million of issuance costs that will be amortized over the five-year term of the agreement.

~~Credit Agreements~~

On July 8, 2020, we closed our private offering (the “Senior Secured Notes Offering”) of $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.25% Senior Secured Notes due 2028 (the “Senior Secured Notes”). The Senior Secured Notes were issued in accordance with an Indenture dated as of July 8, 2020 (the “Indenture”). The Senior Secured Notes will mature on July 15, 2028 unless earlier redeemed or repurchased. Interest on the Senior Secured Notes accrues starting July 8, 2020 and is payable semi-annually in arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each year, which began on January 15, 2021.

Debt issuance costs incurred and capitalized are amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the associated debt agreement. If early principal payments are made on the Senior Secured Notes, a proportional amount of the unamortized debt issuance costs is expensed. As part of the Senior Secured Notes Offering, we capitalized $7.5 million in debt issuance costs that will be amortized over the eight-year term of the agreement.

On November 8, 2016, we entered into an asset-based revolving credit agreement ("ABL") and a loan agreement ("Term Loan") with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. ("JPMorgan Chase"), as administrative agent and certain lenders from time to time party thereto. Under the ABL, we have a $192.5 million credit facility that matures on October 22, 2024 (subject to certain factors which may accelerate the maturity date) on a revolving basis, subject to availability under a borrowing base consisting of eligible accounts receivable and eligible inventory. The ABL is available for issuance of letters of credit to a specified limit of $19.3 million. We pay a commitment fee of 0.25% on the average daily amount of the facility available, but unused. We can elect to base the interest rate on various rates plus specific spreads depending on the amount of borrowings outstanding. If drawn, we would pay interest on ABL borrowings at a floating rate based upon a spread between 1.25% and 1.75% plus LIBOR, depending on the usage of the facility during the most recent quarter. Based on current usage, we would pay LIBOR plus 1.25%.

Refer to Note 9 ofin the Notes to ~~the~~ Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of Part II of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August ~~28, 2021~~27, 2022 for additional information regarding these credit agreements.

Convertible Notes

On November 1, 2019, we issued $300.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 1.5% unsecured convertible senior notes due 2025 (“Convertible Notes”). The net proceeds from the issuance of the Convertible Notes, after deducting the initial purchasers' transaction fees and offering expense payable by us, were approximately $290.2 million. The Convertible Notes bear interest at the annual rate of 1.5%, payable on April 1 and October 1 of each year, beginning on April 1, 2020, and will mature on April 1, 2025, unless earlier converted or repurchased by us.

~~Table of Contents~~

The Convertible Notes will be convertible into cash, shares of our common stock or a combination thereof, at ~~the~~our election, ~~of us,~~ at an initial conversion rate of 15.6906 shares of common stock per $1 thousand principal amount of Convertible Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $63.73 per share, as adjusted pursuant to the terms of the indenture governing the Convertible Notes. The Convertible Notes may be converted at any time on or after October 1, 2024, until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date.

Prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding October 1, 2024, the Convertible Notes will be convertible only under the following circumstances:

1.during any calendar quarter commencing after December 31, 2019 if the closing sale price of the common stock is more than 130% of the applicable conversion price on each applicable trading day for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter;

2.during the five consecutive business day period after any five consecutive trading day period (the "measurement period") in which the trading price per $1 thousand principal amount of Convertible Notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the common stock and the conversion rate for the Convertible Notes on each such trading day; or

3.upon the occurrence of certain specified corporate events set forth in the indenture for the Convertible Notes.

We may not redeem the Convertible Notes at our option prior to the maturity date, and no sinking fund is provided for the Convertible Notes.

The conversion rate of the Convertible Notes may be adjusted in certain circumstances, including in connection with a conversion of the Convertible Notes made following certain fundamental changes and under other circumstances set forth in the indenture. It is our current intent to settle all conversions of the Convertible Notes in cash. Our ability to cash settle may be limited depending on the stock price at the time of conversion.

Table of Contents

On October 29, 2019 and October 30, 2019, in connection with the offering of the Convertible Notes, we entered into privately negotiated convertible note hedge transactions (collectively, the “Hedge Transactions”) that cover, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments, the number of shares of our common stock that initially underlie the Convertible Notes.

On October 29, 2019 and October 30, 2019, we also entered into privately negotiated warrant transactions (collectively, the “Warrant Transactions” and, together with the Hedge Transactions, the “Call Spread Transactions”), whereby we sold warrants at a higher strike price relating to the same number of shares of our common stock that initially underlie the Convertible Notes, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments.

The Hedge Transactions and the Warrant Transactions are separate transactions, in each case, and are not part of the terms of the Convertible Notes and will not affect any holder’s rights under the Convertible Notes. Holders of the Convertible Notes will not have any rights with respect to the Call Spread Transactions.

Accounting Treatment of the Convertible Notes and Related Hedge Transactions and Warrant Transactions

In the first quarter of Fiscal 2023, we adopted ASU 2020-06 using the modified retrospective approach. The ~~Call Spread Transactions were classified~~new guidance simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments by removing certain separation models. As a result, more convertible debt instruments will be accounted for as ~~equity. We~~a single liability measured at amortized cost.

Prior to our adoption of ASU 2020-06, we bifurcated the proceeds from the offering of the Convertible Notes between liability and equity components. On the date of issuance, the liability and equity components were calculated to be approximately $215.0 million and $85.0 million, respectively. The initial $215.0 million liability component was determined based on the fair value of similar debt instruments excluding the conversion feature assuming a hypothetical interest rate of 8%. The initial $85.0 million ($64.1 million net of tax) equity component ~~represents~~represented the difference between the fair value of the initial $215.0 million in debt and the $300.0 million of gross proceeds. The ~~related~~ initial debt discount of $85.0 million iswas being amortized over the life of the Convertible Notes as non-cash interest expense using the effective interest method.

We recognized $3.6 million of non-cash interest expense during the three months ended November 27, 2021. In ~~connection with the above-noted transactions, we incurred approximately~~addition, offering-related costs of $9.8 million ~~of offering-related costs. These offering fees~~ were allocated to the liability and equity components in proportion to the allocation of ~~proceeds~~proceeds.

In connection with our adoption of ASU 2020-06, we derecognized the remaining unamortized interest discount on the Convertible Notes and therefore recorded no non-cash interest expense related to the amortization of the debt discount during the three months ended November 26, 2022. As a result, the Convertible Notes are now accounted for as ~~debt and equity issuance costs, respectively. We allocated $7.0 million~~a single liability measured at amortized cost.

Note 11. Contingent Liabilities and Commitments

Repurchase Commitments

Generally, manufacturers in the same industries as us enter into repurchase agreements with lending institutions which have provided wholesale floorplan financing to dealers. Most dealers are financed on a "floorplan" basis under which a bank or finance company lends the dealer all, or substantially all, of the purchase price, collateralized by a security interest in the units purchased.

Our repurchase agreements generally provide that, in the event of default by the dealer on the agreement to pay the lending institution, we will repurchase the financed merchandise. The terms of these agreements, which generally can last up to 24 months, provide that our liability will be the lesser of remaining principal owed by the dealer to the lending institution, or dealer invoice less periodic reductions based on the time since the date of the original invoice. Our liability cannot exceed 100% of the dealer invoice. In certain instances, we also repurchase inventory from dealers due to state law or regulatory requirements that govern voluntary or involuntary relationship terminations. Although laws vary from state to state, some states have laws in place that require manufacturers of recreational vehicles or boats to repurchase current inventory if a dealership exits the business. The total contingent liability on all of our repurchase agreements was approximately ~~$1,051.3~~$1,902.0 million and ~~$727.7~~$1,783.7 million at November ~~27, 2021~~26, 2022 and August ~~28, 2021,~~27, 2022, respectively.

Repurchased sales are not recorded as a revenue transaction, rather the net difference between the original repurchase price and the resale price is recorded against the loss reserve, which is a deduction from gross revenue. Our loss reserve for repurchase commitments contains uncertainties because the calculation requires management to make assumptions and apply judgment regarding a number of factors. Our risk of loss related to these repurchase commitments is significantly reduced by the potential resale value of any products that are subject to repurchase and is spread over numerous dealers and lenders. The aggregate contingent liability related to our repurchase agreements represents all financed dealer inventory at the period-end reporting date subject to a repurchase agreement, net of the greater of periodic reductions per the agreement or dealer principal payments. Based on these repurchase agreements and our historical loss experience, an associated loss reserve is established which is included in ~~accrued expenses:~~ other current liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Our repurchase accrual was ~~$1.0~~$1.3 million and ~~$0.9~~$1.4 million at November ~~27, 2021~~26, 2022 and August ~~28, 2021,~~27, 2022, respectively. Repurchase risk is affected by the credit worthiness of our dealer network. We do not believe there is a reasonable likelihood that there will be a material change in the estimates or assumptions used to establish the loss reserve for repurchase commitments.

Table of Contents

There was no material activity related to repurchase agreements during the three months ended November ~~27, 2021~~26, 2022 and ~~August 28,~~November 27, 2021.

Litigation

We are involved in various legal proceedings which are considered ordinary and routine litigation incidental to the business, some of which are covered in whole or in part by insurance. While we believe the ultimate disposition of litigation will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity, the possibility exists that such litigation may have an impact on our results for a particular reporting period in which litigation effects become probable and reasonably estimable. Though we do not believe there is a reasonable likelihood that there will be a material change related to these matters, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties and our view of these matters may change in the future.

Note 13. Stock-Based Compensation

On December 11, 2018, our shareholders approved the Winnebago Industries, Inc. 2019 Omnibus Incentive Plan ("2019 Plan") as detailed in our Proxy Statement for the 2018 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. The 2019 Plan allows us to grant or issue non-qualified stock options, incentive stock options, restricted share units, and other equity compensation to key employees and to non-employee directors. The 2019 Plan replaces the 2014 Omnibus Equity, Performance Award, and Incentive Compensation Plan (as amended, the "2014 Plan"). The number of shares of our common stock that may be awarded and issued under the 2019 Plan is 4.1 million shares, plus the shares subject to any awards outstanding under the 2014 Plan and our predecessor plan, the 2004 Incentive Compensation Plan (the “2004 Plan”), on December 11, 2018 that subsequently expire, are forfeited or canceled, or are settled for cash. Until such time, awards under the 2014 Plan and the 2004 Plan, respectively, that were outstanding on December 11, 2018 will continue to be subject to the terms of the 2014 Plan or 2004 Plan, as applicable. Shares remaining available for future awards under the 2014 Plan were not carried over into the 2019 Plan.

Stock-based compensation expense was $3.0 million and $2.7 million ~~and $2.4 million during~~for the three months ended November ~~27, 2021~~26, 2022 and November ~~28, 2020,~~27, 2021, respectively.

Note 14. Income Taxes

Our effective tax rate was ~~23.2%~~24.5% and ~~23.4%~~23.2% for the three months ended November 26, 2022 and November 27, 2021, ~~and November 28, 2020,~~ respectively. The ~~decrease~~increase in tax rate for the three months ended November ~~27, 2021~~26, 2022 compared to the three months ended November ~~28, 2020~~27, 2021 was ~~primarily~~ driven primarily by the impact of a net favorable ~~benefit in the current year~~impact related to stock compensation ~~partially offset by an increase to the rate due to consistent tax credits year-over-year and increased income~~ in the ~~current~~prior year.

20On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act (“IRA”) was signed into law in the United States. Among other provisions, the IRA includes a 15% corporate minimum tax rate applied to certain large corporations and a 1% excise tax on corporate stock repurchases made after December 31, 2022. We do not expect the IRA to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

~~Table of Contents~~

We file a U.S. Federal tax return, as well as returns in various international and state jurisdictions. As of November ~~27, 2021,~~26, 2022, our Federal returns from Fiscal ~~2018~~2019 to present are subject to review by the Internal Revenue Service. With limited exceptions, state returns from Fiscal ~~2017~~2018 to present continue to be subject to review by state taxing jurisdictions. We are currently under review by certain U.S. state tax authorities for Fiscal ~~2016 through~~2019 and Fiscal ~~2019.~~2020. We believe we have adequately reserved for our exposure to potential additional payments for uncertain tax positions in our liability for unrecognized tax benefits.

In the first quarter of Fiscal 2023, we adopted ASU 2020-06 using the modified retrospective approach. Prior to adoption, we utilized the treasury stock method for calculating the dilutive impact of our Convertible Notes. Upon adoption, we prospectively utilized the if-converted method to calculate the dilutive impact of our Convertible Notes. Under the if-converted method, the Convertible Notes are assumed to be converted into common stock at the beginning of the reporting period, and interest charges are added back to the numerator as the principal amount of the Convertible Notes is not required to be paid in cash.

Basic and diluted earnings per share are calculated as follows:


		Three Months Ended					Three Months Ended

Diluted earnings per common share	Diluted earnings per common share	$	2.90	$	1.70	Diluted earnings per common share	$	1.73	$	2.90

For both periods presented, the dilutive effect of stock compensation awards was determined using the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, shares associated with certain anti-dilutive securities have been excluded from the diluted weighted average shares outstanding calculation because the exercise of those options would lead to a net reduction in common shares outstanding or anti-dilution.

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

The terms "Winnebago," "we," "us," and "our," unless the context otherwise requires, refer to Winnebago Industries, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is intended to provide a reader of our financial statements with a narrative from the perspective of management on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, and certain other factors that may affect our future results. Unless otherwise noted, transactions and other factors significantly impacting our financial condition, results of operations and liquidity are discussed in order of magnitude.

Our MD&A should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes included in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August ~~28, 2021~~27, 2022 (including the information presented therein under Risk Factors), as well as our reports on Forms 10-Q and 8-K and other publicly available information. All amounts herein are unaudited. All amounts in tables are in ~~thousands,~~millions, except share and per share data, unless otherwise noted.

Overview

Winnebago Industries, Inc. is one of the leading North American manufacturers of recreation vehicles ("RV"s) and marine products with a diversified portfolio used primarily in leisure travel and outdoor recreational activities. We produce our motorhome units in Iowa and Indiana; our towable units in Indiana; and our marine units in Indiana and Florida. We distribute our RV and marine products primarily through independent dealers throughout the U.S. and Canada, who then retail the products to the end consumer. We also distribute our marine products internationally through independent dealers, who then retail the products to the end consumer.

~~Acquisition of Barletta~~Macroeconomic Events

~~On August 31, 2021, we completed our acquisition of all~~In February 2022, the ~~equity interests of Barletta for $286.3 million funded with cash payments of $240.1 million, $25.0 million~~United States announced targeted economic sanctions on Russia in ~~common stock issued~~response to the sellers (subject to a 12% discount), and contingent consideration from earnout provisions. For further discussion regarding the acquisition, refer to Note 2 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, includedmilitary conflict in ~~Item 1 of~~Ukraine. As described in Part I, Item 1A — Risk Factors, in ~~this Quarterly~~the Annual Report on Form ~~10-Q.~~10-K for the fiscal year ended August 27, 2022, our business may be sensitive to economic conditions such as the adverse impact of global tensions, which could impact input costs, consumer spending, and fuel prices. As our operations are primarily in North America, we have no direct exposure to Russia and Ukraine. However, we are actively monitoring the broader economic impact of the crisis, especially the potential impact of rising commodity and fuel prices, and the potential decreased demand for our products.

~~COVID-19 Pandemic~~

WeSupply chain disruptions continue to ~~monitor guidance from international~~impact the global economy, resulting in increased volatility and domestic authorities, including federal, state and local public health authorities, regarding the COVID-19 pandemic and may take additional actions based on their requirements and recommendations. In these circumstances, there may be developments outsideinflationary cost pressures. For example, our ~~control requiring us to adjust our operating plan. Overall, there has been strong retail demand by consumers of RVs as a safe travel option, and of marine products as a safe way to experience the outdoors, during the COVID-19 pandemic. Our~~ production has experienced certain supply shortages, particularly within our Motorhome and ~~if supply shortages~~Marine segments, as well as material and component cost inflation. If these disruptions continue, or if there are additional disruptions in our supply chain, it could materially or adversely impact our operating results and financial condition. Despite certain supply shortages and inflationary cost input pressures, we continue to ~~actively manage through~~operate and adapt to these temporary supply chain disruptions.~~Refer to the COVID-19 related risk factors disclosed in Item 1A of Part I in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 28, 2021.~~

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This MD&A includes financial information prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), as well as certain adjusted or non-GAAP financial measures such as EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. EBITDA is defined as net income before interest expense, provision for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization expense. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income before interest expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, and other pretax adjustments made in order to present comparable results from period to period.

These non-GAAP financial measures, which are not calculated or presented in accordance with GAAP, have been provided as information supplemental and in addition to the financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP. Such non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered superior to, as a substitute for, or as an alternative to, and should be considered in conjunction with, the GAAP financial measures presented herein. The non-GAAP financial measures presented may differ from similar measures used by other companies.

Included in "Results of ~~Operations - Current Quarter Compared~~Operations" below for the three months ended November 26, 2022 compared to the ~~Comparable Prior Year Quarter"~~comparable prior year period is a reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA from net income, the nearest GAAP measure. We have included these non-GAAP performance measures as a comparable measure to illustrate the effect of non-recurring transactions that occurred during the reported periods and to improve comparability of our results from period to period. We believe Adjusted EBITDA provides meaningful supplemental information about our operating performance as this measure excludes amounts from net income that we do not consider part of our core

Examples of items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA include acquisition-related costs, litigation reserves, ~~restructuring expenses, gain or loss on sale of property, plant~~ and ~~equipment,~~ contingent consideration fair value ~~adjustment, and non-operating income or loss.~~adjustment.

Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures (a) to evaluate our historical and prospective financial performance and trends as well as our performance relative to competitors and peers; (b) to measure operational profitability on a consistent basis; (c) in presentations to the members of our Board of Directors to enable our Board of Directors to have the same measurement

We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in the industry.

Industry Trends and Uncertainties

The RV and marine industries continue to experience ~~supply shortages and~~ shipping delays ~~of raw material components.~~associated with a constrained supply chain. While we continue to ~~manage through~~operate and adapt to these supply chain disruptions, they ~~have~~ impacted our ability ~~to increase production~~ to meet existing demand in the ~~current fiscal year. If these shortages and delays worsen, we could experience~~first quarter of Fiscal 2023.

In the first quarter of Fiscal 2023, Mercedes-Benz AG issued a ~~negative impact on our~~global recall related to an electronic parking brake defect affecting 2019 through 2022 Sprinter chassis. As a result, retail sales and ~~earnings~~wholesale shipments of our products built on this chassis are suspended until a remedy is implemented in cooperation with Mercedes-Benz AG. This recall impacted our Motorhome segment net sales, profitability, and working capital in the ~~future.~~first quarter of Fiscal 2023.

We believe field inventory for our Towable segment has normalized to adequately serve end consumer demand, while field inventory for our Motorhome segment is returning to normalized levels. Field inventory for our Marine segment continues to remain lower than desired by our dealer network, but is beginning to show signs of normalizing. We continue to produce and ship in accordance with dealer demand as evidenced and requested by dealer orders.

RV industry retail sales have been softening compared to record high prior year levels; however, we still believe in the long-term health of consumer demand for RV and marine products. More people are pursuing outdoor activities, household penetration of RVs is increasing, and campers are more diverse than ever. According to statistics published by Kampgrounds of America, Inc., over 14 million households camped for the first time in 2020 and 2021, and combined with record levels of first-time buyers of RVs over the past two years, we believe a positive outlook exists for new product and upgrade-related sales. Despite these developments, current macroeconomic trends such as inflation, rising interest rates and low consumer sentiment, as well as global political tensions, contribute to reduced short-term consumer demand for large discretionary products such as RVs and Marine products, which could in turn impact our future revenue and profits.

Orders in backlog generally can be cancelled or postponed at the option of the dealer at any time without penalty; therefore, backlog may not necessarily be an accurate measure of future sales.

Net revenues decreased primarily due to a decline in unit volume.

Adjusted EBITDA decreased primarily due to lower revenues associated with volume declines compared to record high year-ago levels and the timing of price increases compared to inflation.

Operating Activities

~~Cash~~During the three months ended November 26, 2022, cash provided by operating activities ~~increased due~~was $29.9 million compared to ~~higher~~$56.5 million in the same period last year. The decrease is primarily driven by lower profitability, partially offset by ~~investments~~favorable changes in ~~working capital~~operating assets and liabilities. The favorable impact of operating assets and liabilities is primarily due to ~~support current year revenue growth, including a $70.3 million increase in inventory to support customer demand, a $7.2 million increase~~changes in accounts receivable due to lower revenues and timing of invoicing/collections, and changes in inventory due to elevated purchases in Fiscal 2022 to support customer demand, partially offset by a ~~$17.7 million~~ decrease in accounts payable due to timing of payments and supply chain production slowdowns. Working capital and cash provided by operating activities were negatively impacted by the Mercedes-Benz AG chassis recall in the ~~three months ended November 27, 2021.~~first quarter of Fiscal 2023.

Debt and Capital

We maintain a ~~$192.5~~$350.0 million asset-based revolving credit facility ("ABL Credit Facility") with a maturity date of ~~October 22, 2024~~July 15, 2027 subject to certain factors which may accelerate the maturity date. As of November ~~27, 2021,~~26, 2022, we had no borrowings against the ABL Credit Facility.

As of November ~~27, 2021,~~26, 2022, we had ~~$211.4~~$271.7 million in cash and cash equivalents and ~~$192.5~~$350.0 million in unused ABL Credit Facility. Our cash and cash equivalent balances consist of high quality, short-term money market instruments.

We believe cash flow from operations, existing lines of credit, and access to debt and capital markets will be sufficient to meet our current liquidity needs, and we have committed liquidity and cash reserves in excess of our anticipated funding requirements. We evaluate the financial stability of the counterparties for the Convertible Notes, the Senior Secured Notes, and the ABL Credit Facility, and will continue to monitor counterparty risk on an on-going basis.

Other Financial Measures

Working capital at November ~~27, 2021~~26, 2022 and August ~~28, 2021~~27, 2022 was ~~$502.5~~$617.7 million and ~~$651.6~~$571.7 million, respectively. We currently expect cash on hand, funds generated from operations, and the borrowing available under our ABL Credit Facility to be sufficient to cover both short-term and long-term operating requirements.

Share Repurchases ~~and Dividends~~

We repurchase our common stock and pay dividends pursuant to programs approved by our Board of Directors. Our long-term capital allocation strategy is to first fund operations and investments in growth, maintain a debt leverage ratio within our targeted zone, maintain reasonable liquidity, and then return excess cash over time to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases.

On ~~October 13, 2021,~~August 17, 2022, our Board of Directors authorized a new share repurchase program in the amount of ~~$200.0~~$350.0 million with no time restriction on the authorization, which took effect immediately and replaced the prior program. In the three months ended November ~~27, 2021,~~26, 2022, we repurchased ~~281,000 shares of our own common stock at a cost of $19.6 million under this authorization, and 55,000~~79,387 shares at a cost of ~~$4.1~~$4.5 million to satisfy tax obligations on employee equity awards vested. We continually evaluate if share repurchases reflect a prudent use of our capital and, subject to compliance with our ABL Credit Facility and Senior Secured Notes, we may purchase shares in the future. AtAs of November ~~27, 2021,~~26, 2022, we have ~~$190.0~~$350.0 million remaining on our Board approved repurchase authorization.

On December ~~15, 2021,~~14, 2022, our Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of ~~$0.18~~$0.27 per share payable on January ~~26, 2022,~~25, 2023, to common stockholders of record at the close of business on January ~~12, 2022.~~11, 2023.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The assets we maintain to fund deferred compensation have market risk, but we maintain a corresponding liability for these assets. The market risk is therefore borne by the participants in the deferred compensation program.

Interest rate risk

As of November 27, 2021, we have no interest rate swaps outstanding and the Term Loan, that had been subject to variable interest rates, was repaid in the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2020 using the proceeds from the Senior Secured Notes.

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

For a description of our legal proceedings, see Note 11 in the Notes to ~~the~~ Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, ~~of Part I~~ Risk Factors,of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August ~~28, 2021.~~27, 2022, except for the risk factor updated below:

For some of the components used in production, we depend on a small group of suppliers and the loss of any of these suppliers could affect our ability to obtain components timely or at competitive prices, which would decrease our results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows.

Most of our RV and marine components are readily available from numerous sources. However, a few of our components are produced by a small group of suppliers. In the case of motorhome chassis, Mercedes-Benz (USA and Canada), Stellantis N.V., Freightliner Trucks, Ford Motor Company, and Spartan RV Chassis are our major suppliers. Our relationship with our chassis suppliers is similar to our other supplier relationships in that no specific contractual commitments are engaged in by either party. This means that we do not have minimum purchase requirements, and our chassis suppliers do not have minimum supply requirements. Our chassis suppliers also supply to our competitors. Historically, chassis suppliers resort to an industry-wide allocation system during periods when supply is restricted. These allocations have been based on the volume of chassis previously purchased, which could mean our larger competitors could receive more chassis in a time of scarcity. Sales of motorhomes rely on chassis supply and are affected by shortages or instability from time to time. For example, in the first quarter of Fiscal 2023, the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter chassis became subject to a recall notice, which suspended all retail sales and wholesale shipments of our products built on this chassis, which we believe materially adversely affected our net revenues and earnings for the quarter ended November 26, 2022. The exact nature of the remedy and timing for executing the remedy remain uncertain and will further impact our results for the quarter ending February 25, 2023 and potentially beyond. Furthermore, decisions by our suppliers to decrease production, production delays or work stoppages by the employees of such suppliers, or price increases could have a material adverse effect on our ability to produce motorhomes and ultimately, on our results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows. In Fiscal 2022, one of our suppliers individually accounted for approximately 11% of our consolidated raw material purchases.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Purchases of our common stock during each fiscal month of the first quarter of Fiscal ~~2022~~2023 are as follows:
Period(1)
