NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of presentation. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Polaris Inc. (“Polaris” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial statements and, therefore, do not include all information and disclosures of results of operations, financial position, and changes in cash flow in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. Accordingly, such statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2021~~2022 previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In the opinion of management, such statements reflect all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, equity, and cash flows for the periods presented. Due to the seasonality trends for certain products and to certain changes in production and shipping cycles, results of such periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the complete year.

Reclassifications. Reclassifications of certain prior year segment results and account balances have been made to conform to the current-year presentation. The reclassifications had no impact on the consolidated balance sheets, statements of income, comprehensive income, equity, or cash flows, as previously reported. See further information in Note 12.

On July 1, 2022, the Company completed the sale of its Transamerican Auto Parts (“TAP”) business. The operating results of the TAP business are reported in ~~Income (loss)~~loss from discontinued operations, net of tax, in the ~~Consolidated~~consolidated statements of ~~income for all periods presented. In addition, the related assets and liabilities are reported as assets and liabilities held for sale in the consolidated balance sheets.~~income. All amounts and disclosures included in the Notes to consolidated financial statements reflect only the Company's continuing operations unless otherwise noted. ~~See further information in~~Refer to Note 4.4 for additional information.

Fair value measurements. Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. 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 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 — Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

In making fair value measurements, observable market data must be used when available. When inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company utilizes the market approach to measure fair value for its non-qualified deferred compensation assets and liabilities, and the income approach for foreign currency contracts, ~~and~~ interest rate contracts, and commodity contracts. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities, and for the income approach, the Company uses significant other observable inputs to value its derivative instruments used to hedge foreign currency, ~~and~~ interest rate transactions, and commodity transactions.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below (in millions):

Input Level September 30, 2022 December 31, 2021
Assets
Non-qualified deferred compensation assets Level 1 $ 38.3 $ 52.4
Foreign exchange contracts, net Level 2 $ 17.9 $ 2.1

Liabilities

New accounting pronouncements.

~~Reference Rate Reform.~~ ~~In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04,~~ ~~Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting~~. This ASU provides practical expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The FASB also issued ASU 2021-01, ~~Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope,~~ in January 2021, which adds implementation guidance to clarify which optional expedients in Topic 848 may be applied to derivative instruments that do not reference LIBOR or a reference rate that is expected to be discontinued, but that are being modified as a result of the transition. The Company adopted ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2021-01 on January 1, 2022. The adoption of the ASUs did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, equity or cash flows.

There are no ~~other~~ new accounting pronouncements that are expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Note 3. Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control of a good or service to a ~~customer (primarily dealers and distributors).~~customer. Revenue is measured based on the amount of consideration that the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for the goods or services transferred. Sales, value add, and other taxes that are collected from a customer concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue. Revenue from goods and services transferred to customers at a point-in-time accounts for the majority of the Company’s revenue. Revenue from products or services transferred over time is discussed in the contract liabilities section.

For the majority of wholegood vehicles, boats, and Parts, Garments, and Accessories (“PG&A”), the Company transfers control and recognizes a sale when it ships the product from its manufacturing facility, distribution center, or vehicle holding center to its customer. The amount of consideration the Company receives and revenue it recognizes varies with changes in marketing incentives and rebates it offers to its ~~dealers and their~~ customers. Payment terms vary by customer and most of the Company’s sales are financed by the customer under floorplan financing arrangements whereby the Company receives payment within a few days of shipment of the product.

When the right of return exists, the Company adjusts the consideration for the estimated effect of returns. The Company estimates expected returns based on historical sales levels, the timing and magnitude of historical sales return levels as a percent of sales, type of product, type of customer, and a projection of this experience into the future. The Company adjusts its estimate of revenue at the earlier of when the most likely amount of consideration it expects to receive changes or when the consideration becomes fixed.

Depending on the terms of the arrangement, the Company may also defer the recognition of a portion of the consideration received because it has to satisfy a future obligation. The Company uses an observable price to determine the stand-alone selling price for separate performance obligations. The Company has elected to recognize the cost for freight and shipping when control over vehicles, boats, parts, garments or accessories has transferred to the customer as an expense in cost of sales.

Financial Products. The Company sells separately-priced extended service contracts (“ESCs”) that extend mechanical coverages beyond the base limited warranty as well as prepaid maintenance agreements to vehicle owners. Each of these separately priced service contracts range from 12 months to 84 months. The Company typically receives payment at the

Net income per share

Basic income per share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period, including shares earned under the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors (“Director Plan”), the ESOP and deferred stock units under the 2007 Omnibus Incentive Plan (“Omnibus Plan”). Diluted income per share is computed under the treasury stock method and is calculated to compute the dilutive effect of outstanding stock options and certain share-based awards issued under the Omnibus Plan. A reconciliation of these amounts is as follows (in millions):

Note 10. Commitments and Contingencies

Product liability. The Company is subject to product liability claims in the normal course of business. In 2012, the Company began purchasing excess insurance coverage for product liability claims. The Company self-insures product liability claims before the policy date and up to the purchased insurance coverage after the policy date. The estimated costs resulting from any losses are charged to operating expenses when it is probable a loss has been incurred and the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable. The Company utilizes historical trends and actuarial analysis, along with an analysis of current claims, to assist in determining the appropriate loss reserve levels. As of September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, the Company had an accrual of ~~$79.5~~$98.2 million for the probable payment of pending claims related to product liability litigation associated with the Company’s products. This accrual is included as a component of other accrued expenses in the consolidated balance sheets.

Litigation. The Company is a defendant in lawsuits and subject to other claims arising in the normal course of business, including matters related to intellectual property, commercial matters, employment, and product liability claims. In addition, as of September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, the Company is party toputative class actions pending against the Company in the United States which are described in more detail in Part II, Item 1 – Legal Proceedings. The Company is unable to provide an evaluation of the likelihood that a loss will be incurred or an estimate of the range of possible loss on the putative class actions.

In the opinion of management, it is presently unlikely that any legal proceedings pending against or involving the Company will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. However, in many of these matters, it is inherently difficult to determine whether a loss is probable or reasonably possible or to estimate the size or range of the possible loss given the variety of potential outcomes of actual and potential claims, including legal proceedings seeking punitive damages for which we are not insured, the uncertainty of

~~Table of Contents~~

future rulings, the behavior or incentives of adverse parties, and other factors outside of the control of the Company. Accordingly, the Company’s loss reserve may change from time to time, and actual losses could exceed the amounts accrued by an amount that could be material to the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows in any particular reporting period.

Regulatory. In the normal course of business, the Company’s products are subject to extensive laws and regulations relating to safety, environmental, and other regulations promulgated by the United States federal government and individual states, as well as international regulatory authorities. Failure to comply with applicable regulations could result in fines, penalties or other costs.

Note 11. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

The Company is exposed to certain risks ~~relating to its ongoing business operations. The primary risks managed by using derivative instruments are~~from fluctuations in foreign currency risk and interest rate risk. Derivative contracts on various currencies are entered into in order to manage foreign currency exposures associated with certain product sourcing activities and intercompany cash flows. Interest rate swaps are entered into in order to maintain a balanced risk of fixed and floatingexchange rates, interest rates, ~~associated with~~and commodity prices. To reduce its exposure to such risks, the ~~Company’s debt.~~

The Company’s foreign currency management objective is to mitigate the potential impact of currency fluctuations on the value of its U.S. dollar cash flows and to reduce the variability of certain cash flows at the subsidiary level. The Company ~~actively manages certain forecasted foreign currency exposures and~~selectively uses ~~a centralized currency management operation to take advantage of potential opportunities to naturally offset foreign currency exposures.~~derivative financial instruments. The decision of whether and when to execute derivative instruments, along with the duration of the instrument, may vary from period to period depending on market conditions, the relative costs of the instruments and capacity to hedge. The duration is linked to the timing of the underlying exposure, with the connection between the two being regularly monitored. The Company does not use any financial contracts for trading purposes. The derivative contracts contain credit risk to the extent that our bank counterparties may be unable to meet the terms of the agreements. The amount of such credit risk is generally limited to the unrealized gains, if any, in such contracts. Such risk is minimized by limiting those counterparties to major financial institutions of high credit quality.

The terms “Polaris,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” as used herein refer to the business and operations of Polaris Inc., its subsidiaries and its predecessors, which began doing business in 1954. We design, engineer and manufacture powersports vehicles, which include: off-road vehicles (“ORV”), including all-terrain vehicles (“ATV”) and side-by-side vehicles; military and commercial off-road vehicles; snowmobiles; motorcycles; moto-roadsters; quadricycles; boats; and related Parts, Garments and Accessories (“PG&A”), which includes aftermarket accessories and apparel. Due to the seasonality of certain products and to certain changes in production and shipping cycles, results of such periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the complete year. Unless otherwise noted, all “quarter” comparisons are from the third quarter of ~~2022~~2023 to the third quarter of ~~2021~~2022 and all “year-to-date” comparisons are from the nine month period ended September 30, ~~2022~~2023 to the nine month period ended September 30, ~~2021.~~2022. Estimates related to industry retail sales are unaudited and based on internally-generated management estimates, including estimates based on extrapolations from third-party surveys of the industries in which we compete, and are subject to change.

Overview

The impact of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic as well as other disruptive events have impacted the global economy, disrupted global supply chains and created significant volatility and disruption of financial markets. The impact of these factors has affected our business segments, employees, dealers, suppliers, and customers in a variety of ways.

In 2021 and the first half of 2022 we saw strong retail demand for our Powersports products and boats. Consistent with macroeconomic trends, as we progressed through 2022 we have seen indicators of demand moderating. Due to the dynamics of the COVID-19 pandemic, heightened demand, natural disasters, and geopolitical events, including the conflict between Russia and Ukraine and related sanctions, our supply chain and manufacturing operations have experienced inefficiencies caused by production-limiting disruptions, including supplier labor shortages. Although these disruptions are moderating, we have made pricing changes to address the resulting increase in production costs. Manufacturing disruptions combined with the impact of elevated commodity and logistics costs are expected to negatively affect the Company’s profitability. As a result of these demand and supply chain trends, North American dealer inventory as of September 30, 2022 was down significantly compared to pre-pandemic levels, but up sequentially from the second quarter.

Third quarter sales totaled ~~$2,340.6~~$2,248.9 million, ~~an increase~~a decrease of 32four percent from last year’s third quarter sales of ~~$1,777.7~~$2,340.6 million. Our third quarter sales to customers in North America ~~increased 35~~decreased four percent and our sales to customers outside of North America ~~increased 10~~decreased three percent. The ~~increase~~decrease in sales in the quarter was primarily driven ~~primarily~~ by ~~increased shipments, higher pricing, and favorable product mix.~~decreased shipments.

Our gross profit of ~~$559.2~~$508.8 million ~~increased 33~~decreased nine percent from ~~$420.0~~$559.2 million in the comparable prior year third quarter. Gross profit, as a percentage of sales, ~~increased~~decreased primarily due to higher ~~pricing, partially offset by higher input costs. We reported~~finance interest, unfavorable product mix, and unfavorable foreign currency exchange rate movement.

Net income from continuing operations attributable to Polaris was $151.7 million, or $2.62 per diluted share, compared to 2022 third quarter net income from continuing operations attributable to Polaris of $190.4 million, or $3.17 per diluted ~~share, compared to 2021 third quarter~~share. The decrease in net income from continuing operations ~~attributable~~was primarily driven by decreased shipments, higher finance interest, and higher marketing expenses. We reported third quarter Adjusted EBITDA of $282.6 million, compared to ~~Polaris~~2022 third quarter Adjusted EBITDA of ~~$117.0 million, or $1.88 per diluted share.~~$319.8 million. For information on how we define and calculate Adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation of net income from continuing operations to Adjusted EBITDA, see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”.

During the third quarter of 2022, we completed the sale of our Transamerican Auto Parts (“TAP”) business, an aftermarket parts business. The results of TAP have been presented as discontinued operations ~~and the related assets and liabilities have been classified as held for sale~~ for all periods presented. ~~As a result, for the year-to-date period an impairment and loss on sale of $187.8 million was recorded which resulted in a $45.0 million income tax benefit.~~

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, we use certain non-GAAP financial measures, as described below, to understand and evaluate our core operating performance. These non-GAAP financial measures, which may be different than similarly titled measures used by other companies, are presented to enhance investors’ overall understanding of our financial performance and should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

We use the non-GAAP financial measure of Adjusted EBITDA, which is defined as net income from continuing operations, excluding interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, and certain other non-cash, non-recurring, or non-operating items impacting net income from continuing operations from time to time. For example, costs associated with our multi-phase supply chain transformation initiative and certain corporate restructuring activities, such as acquisitions and divestitures, are included as non-GAAP adjustments. We use the non-GAAP financial measure of Adjusted EBITDA Margin, which is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin help identify underlying trends in our business that could otherwise be masked by the effect of the expenses that we exclude from Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin.

We believe that these measures provide useful information about our financial performance, enhance the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects, and allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by our management for financial and operational decision-making. We are presenting these non-GAAP measures to assist investors in seeing our financial performance through the eyes of management, and because we believe that these measures provide an additional tool for investors to use in comparing our core financial performance over multiple periods with other companies in our industry.

Adjusted EBITDA has limitations and should not be considered in isolation from, as a ~~percentage~~substitute for, or more meaningful than, net income from continuing operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing a company’s financial performance. Our presentation of ~~sales, decreased during~~Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin should not be construed as an inference that our results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.

The following table presents a reconciliation of net income from continuing operations, the ~~quarter~~most comparable GAAP financial measure, to Adjusted EBITDA for each of the periods presented:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary sources of ~~funds have been~~liquidity are expected to be cash provided by operating and financing ~~activities.~~activities, including funds as needed from our credit facility and issuances of long-term debt. Our primary uses of funds have been for acquisitions, repurchases and retirement of common stock, capital investments, new product development and cash dividends to shareholders. The seasonality of production and shipments cause working capital requirements to fluctuate during the year and year to year.

We believe that existing cash balances, cash flow to be generated from operating activities and, borrowing capacity under the credit facility arrangement and from future issuances or borrowings of long-term debt, will be sufficient to fund operations, new product development, cash dividends, share repurchases, and capital requirements for at least the next 12 months and for the foreseeable future thereafter.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes the cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities of continuing operations:

Operating Activities:

The increase in net cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations was primarily the result of lower working capital ~~additions, partially offset by lower net income.~~

Beginning in 2022, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("Act") eliminates the option to deduct research and development expenditures and requires taxpayers to amortize domestic expenditures over five years and foreign expenditures over fifteen years. This

Investing Activities:

Financing Activities:

The decrease in net cash used for financing activities was primarily due to ~~increased~~lower share repurchases, partially offset by decreased net borrowings under debt arrangements. We recorded ~~$336.0~~$157.7 million of net borrowings for the nine months ended September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, compared to ~~$73.7~~$336.0 million of net borrowings for the comparable period in ~~2021. The change was also driven by lower share repurchases in 2022, partially offset by lower proceeds from stock issuances under employee plans.~~2022.

Financing Arrangements:

We are party to an unsecured Master Note Purchase Agreement, as amended and supplemented, under which we have issued senior notes. As of September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, outstanding borrowings under the Master Note Purchase Agreement totaled $350.0 million.

We are also party to an unsecured credit ~~agreement,~~facility, which includes a $1.0 billion variable interest rate Revolving Loan Facility that matures in June 2026, under which we have unsecured borrowings. As of September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, there were borrowings of ~~$378.0~~$507.7 million outstanding under the Revolving Loan Facility. Our credit ~~agreement~~facility also includes a Term Loan Facility, on which ~~$840.0~~$792.0 million was outstanding as of September 30, ~~2022.~~2023. Interest is charged at rates based on ~~LIBOR or “prime”~~adjusted Term SOFR for the credit facility. As of September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, we had ~~$614.5~~$484.8 million of availability on the Revolving Loan Facility.

OnIn December ~~17,~~ 2021, wethe Company amended the ~~Term Loan Facility~~credit facility to provide an unsecured incremental 364-day term loan (the ~~“incremental term loan”~~“Incremental Term Loan”) in the amount of $500 ~~million. The incremental term loan,~~million, which was fully drawn on ~~closing, is unsecured and matures on~~closing. In December ~~16, 2022.~~2022, the Company further amended its credit facility to extend the maturity date of the Incremental Term Loan to December 15, 2023. There are no required principal payments prior to the maturity date. In addition to the payment of the $500 million ~~incremental term loan, we are~~Incremental Term Loan, the Company is required to make principal payments under the Term Loan Facility totaling $45 million over the next 12 months.

Table of Contents

The ~~credit~~ agreements governing the facility and the Master Note Purchase Agreement contain covenants that require the Company to maintain certain financial ratios, including minimum interest coverage and maximum leverage ratios. The agreements also require the Company to maintain an interest coverage ratio of not less than 3.00 to 1.00 and a leverage ratio of not more than 3.50 to 1.00 on a rolling four quarter basis.

On July 2, 2018, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated May 29, 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of Boat Holdings, LLC, a privately held Delaware limited liability company, headquartered in Elkhart, Indiana which manufactures boats (“Boat Holdings”). As a component of the Boat Holdings merger agreement, we have committed to make a series of deferred payments to the former owners through July 2030. The original discounted payable was for $76.7 million, of which ~~$55.3~~$49.4 million was outstanding as of September 30, ~~2022.~~2023.

As of September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, we were in compliance with all debt ~~covenants. Our~~covenants and our debt to total capital ratio was ~~68 percent as of September 30, 2022.~~62 percent. Additionally, as of September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, we had letters of credit outstanding of ~~$43.0~~$36.2 million, primarily related to purchase obligations for raw materials.

Share Repurchases:

~~As of September 30, 2022, our Board of Directors has authorized us to repurchase up to an additional $475.6 million of our common stock.~~ We repurchased a total of ~~3.2~~1.4 million shares of our common stock for ~~$378.5~~$159.4 million during the first nine months of ~~2022,~~2023, which had a favorable impact on diluted net income from continuing operations per share of 16eight cents. As of September 30, 2023, our Board of Directors has authorized us to repurchase up to an additional $204.0 million of our common stock.

Wholesale Customer Financing Arrangements:

We have arrangements with certain finance companies to provide secured floor plan financing for our dealers. These arrangements provide liquidity by financing dealer purchases of our products without the use of our working capital. A majority of the worldwide sales of snowmobiles, ORVs, motorcycles, boats and related PG&A are financed under similar

~~Table of Contents~~

arrangements whereby we receive payment within a few days of shipment of the product. We participate in the cost of dealer financing up to certain limits.

Under these arrangements, we have agreed to repurchase products repossessed by these finance companies. As of September 30, ~~2022,~~2023, the potential aggregate repurchase obligations were approximately ~~$283.6~~$423.0 million. Our financial exposure under these repurchase agreements is limited to the difference between the amounts unpaid by the dealer with respect to the repossessed product plus costs of repossession and the amount received on the resale of the repossessed product. No material losses have been incurred under ~~this agreement~~these agreements during the periods presented.

Retail Customer Financing Arrangements:

We have agreements with third-party financing companies to provide financing options to end consumers of our products. We have no material contingent liabilities for residual value or credit collection risk under these agreements. ~~The income generated from these agreements has been included as a component of income from financial services in the consolidated statements of income.~~

~~Inflation, Foreign Exchange Rates, and Interest Rates~~

~~Inflation:~~

Rising costs, including wages, logistics, components, and commodity prices, are negatively impacting our gross profit margins. We strive to minimize the effects of inflation through cost containment, productivity improvements and price increases.

We are subject to market risk from fluctuating market prices of certain purchased commodities and raw materials, including steel, aluminum, petroleum-based resins, certain rare earth metals and diesel fuel. In addition, we are a purchaser of components and parts containing various commodities, including steel, aluminum, rubber and others, which are integrated into our end products. While such materials are typically available from numerous suppliers, commodity raw materials are subject to price fluctuations. We generally buy these commodities and components based upon market prices that are established with the vendor as part of the purchase process. Based on our current outlook for commodity prices, which we expect to remain high, the total impact of commodities, including tariff costs, is expected to have a negative impact on our gross profit margins for full-year 2022 when compared to 2021.

~~Foreign Exchange Rates:~~

~~The changing relationships of the U.S. dollar to foreign currencies can have a material impact on our financial results.~~

~~Euro:~~ We have operations in the Eurozone through wholly owned subsidiaries and distributors. We also purchase components from certain suppliers directly for our U.S. operations in transactions denominated in Euros. Fluctuations in the Euro to U.S. dollar exchange rate impacts sales, cost of sales, and net income.

~~Canadian Dollar:~~ ~~We operate in Canada through a wholly owned subsidiary. The relationship of the U.S. dollar in relation to the Canadian dollar impacts both sales and net income.~~

~~Other currencies:~~ We operate in various countries, principally in Europe, Mexico and Australia, through wholly owned subsidiaries. We also sell to certain distributors in other countries. We also purchase components from certain suppliers directly for our U.S. operations in transactions denominated in these foreign currencies. The relationship of the U.S. dollar in relation to these other currencies impacts sales, cost of sales and net income.

~~Table of Contents~~

We actively manage our exposure to fluctuating foreign currency exchange rates by entering into foreign exchange hedging contracts. A portion of our foreign currency exposure is mitigated with the following open foreign currency hedging contracts as of September 30, 2022:

~~Foreign Currency~~

~~22 Peso to $1~~

During the quarter and year-to-date periods ended September 30, 2022, after consideration of the existing foreign currency hedging contracts, foreign currencies had a negative impact on net income compared to 2021. We expect currencies to have a negative impact on full-year net income from continuing operations in 2022 compared to 2021.

The assets and liabilities in all our international entities are translated at the foreign exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. Translation gains and losses are reflected as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss, net in the shareholders’ equity section of the consolidated balance sheets. Revenues and expenses in all of our international entities are translated at the average foreign exchange rate in effect for each month of the year. Certain assets and liabilities related to intercompany positions reported on our consolidated balance sheet that are denominated in a currency other than the entity’s functional currency are translated at the foreign exchange rates at the balance sheet date and the associated gains and losses are included in net income.

~~Interest Rates:~~

We are a party to an unsecured credit agreement with various lenders consisting of a $1.0 billion revolving loan facility, a $1.2 billion term loan facility, and a $500 million incremental term loan. Interest accrues on the revolving loan, term loans, and the incremental term loan at variable rates based on LIBOR or “prime” plus the applicable add-on percentage as defined. As of September 30, 2022, there was $378.0 million outstanding on the revolving loan, $840.0 million outstanding on the term loan, and $500 million outstanding on the incremental term loan. We enter into interest rate swaps in order to maintain a balanced risk of fixed and floating interest rates associated with our debt. We expect interest rates to have a negative impact on full-year net income from continuing operations in 2022 compared to 2021.

Foreign Exchange Rates:

The changing relationships of the U.S. dollar to foreign currencies can have a material impact on our financial results.

Euro: We have operations in the Eurozone through wholly owned subsidiaries and distributors. We also purchase components from certain suppliers directly for our U.S. operations in transactions denominated in Euros. Fluctuations in the Euro to U.S. dollar exchange rate impacts sales, cost of sales, and net income.

Canadian Dollar: We operate in Canada through a wholly owned subsidiary. The relationship of the U.S. dollar in relation to the Canadian dollar impacts both sales and net income.

Other currencies: We operate in various countries, principally in Europe, Mexico and Australia, through wholly owned subsidiaries. We also sell to certain distributors in other countries. We also purchase components from certain suppliers directly for our U.S. operations in transactions denominated in these foreign currencies. The relationship of the U.S. dollar in relation to these other currencies impacts sales, cost of sales and net income.

During the quarter and year-to-date periods ended September 30, 2023, after consideration of the existing foreign currency hedging contracts, foreign currencies had a negative impact on net income compared to 2022. We expect currencies to have a negative impact on full-year net income from continuing operations in 2023 compared to 2022.

Interest Rates:

We are a party to an unsecured credit facility with various lenders consisting of a $1.0 billion revolving loan facility, a $1.2 billion term loan facility, and a $500 million incremental term loan. Interest accrues on the revolving loan, term loans, and the incremental term loan at variable rates based on adjusted Term SOFR plus the applicable add-on percentage as defined. As of September 30, 2023, there was $507.7 million outstanding on the revolving loan, $792.0 million outstanding on the term loan, and $500 million outstanding on the incremental term loan. We enter into interest rate swaps in order to maintain a balanced risk of fixed and floating interest rates associated with our debt. We expect interest rates to have a negative impact on full-year net income from continuing operations in 2023 compared to 2022.

Item 4 – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (1) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (2) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, in a manner that allows timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As of the date hereof, we are ~~also~~ party to certain putative class actions brought by the same plaintiff’s counsel and largely repeating the same allegations regarding various state consumer protection laws focused on rollover protection ~~systems’~~structures’ certifications for various Polaris off-road vehicles sold in ~~California, Oregon and Texas.~~California. The first case brought related to this matter—~~Guzman~~Guzman/Albright—was first reported in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. The district court granted summary judgment against both ~~plaintiff’s claims. The~~plaintiffs’ claims, which the plaintiffs appealed. The Ninth Circuit ~~recently~~ issued two rulings in September 2022 that reversed the district court’s summary judgment rulings and remanded the case to the district court with instructions to dismiss one plaintiff’s claims without prejudice. ~~We have~~The plaintiff whose claims were dismissed without prejudice refiled a putative class action in California State Court under the name Albright. In June 2023, the Albright court granted the parties’ stipulation to stay that case pending a decision on class certification in the Guzman case. On September 27, 2023, the district court in Guzman entered an order granting in part and denying in part plaintiff’s motion for class certification. The district court certified a California class for plaintiff’s claim seeking money damages under the California Consumers Legal Remedies Act but denied class certification of plaintiff’s claim seeking injunctive relief under Fed. R. Civ. P. 23(b)(2). On October 11, 2023, Polaris filed a petition ~~for rehearing or rehearing~~ ~~en banc~~ ~~with respect~~ to appeal the ~~decision requiring dismissal without prejudice.~~portion of the district court’s order granting class certification. The second case—~~Hellman~~Hellman/Berlanga—was first reported in the Company’s quarterly report for the period ended June 30, 2021. ~~Additional~~Plaintiffs’ counsel, in both the Albright and Hellman/Berlanga cases, filed similar putative class actions on behalf of certain plaintiffs dismissed from the ~~Hellman~~Hellman/Berlanga case ~~have been filed~~ in Texas (Lollar), Nevada (Mitchell), and Oregon (Artoff)., though the

~~Table~~Lollar and Mitchell matters have since been dismissed, the parties reached a final settlement agreement of ~~Contents~~the plaintiff’s individual claims in

Artoff, and another plaintiff from the Hellman/Berlanga matter, Michael Hellman, has been dismissed. In May 2023, the remaining plaintiff in the Berlanga case filed a motion for class certification. We have filed an opposition to plaintiff’s motion for class certification and have filed a motion to exclude the opinions of certain of plaintiff’s expert witnesses. On August 28, 2023, the United States District Court for the Eastern District of California transferred the Berlanga case to the United States District Court for the Central District of California. On September 13, 2023, the district court in the Guzman case consented to the transfer of the Berlanga case. That district court has not yet ruled on the Berlanga plaintiff’s motion for class certification or Polaris’s motion to exclude the opinions of plaintiff’s expert witnesses in that case.

As previously reported in the Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2021, the district court in In re Polaris dismissed half of the plaintiffs and their claims related to alleged fire hazards in certain Polaris products. Plaintiffs’ counsel voluntarily dismissed the remaining plaintiffs to appeal. The Eighth Circuit affirmed dismissal of the claims brought by plaintiffs who had appealed. On April 28, 2022, the In re Polaris plaintiffs’ counsel filed a new, substantially similar putative class action in California State Court, seeking damages for alleged economic loss: James DeBiasio v. Polaris Industries Inc. (County of Los Angeles, Ca.). We removed the matter to federal court (C.D. Cal.) in June 2022 ~~(C.D. Cal.)~~ and ~~have~~ moved to dismiss the plaintiff’s claims; plaintiff filed a motion to remand the case. The district court ~~recently~~ denied plaintiff’s motion to remand and granted our motion to dismiss, ~~giving~~allowing plaintiff ~~a limited time~~ to file an amended ~~compliant.~~

~~As previously reported in the Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2021, the district court in~~ ~~Johannessohn~~ ~~denied class certification related to plaintiffs’ claims of excessive heat hazards in Sportsman ATVs. The Eighth Circuit subsequently affirmed that denial. On June 13, 2022,~~ ~~Johannessohn~~ ~~plaintiffs’ counsel filed a new, substantially similar putative class action in Minnesota State Court, seeking damages for alleged economic loss:~~ ~~Jay Miller, individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated v. Polaris Inc.~~ (4th ~~Dist. Minn.).~~complaint. We ~~have~~ moved to dismiss plaintiff’s ~~claims.~~amended complaint, which the Court denied in March 2023. The parties are engaged in fact discovery.

With respect to each of these putative class action lawsuits, we are unable to provide any reasonable evaluation of the likelihood that a loss will be incurred or any reasonable estimate of the range of possible loss.
