CEO COMMENTARY

Our results during the second quarter reflect our team’s commitment to our customers through industry-leading innovation and exceptional execution, despite the ongoing supply chain constraints impacting the global economy. While we are closely watching a number of demand indicators to understand the resilience of the consumer in this environment, we continue to see a healthy consumer and stable demand. In the quarter, some easing of logistics complexities, commodity costs, and certain supply chain bottlenecks helped to support sequential margin improvement and increased shipment volume. While this trend is expected to continue in the back half of the year, we remain diligent and prepared to respond if headwinds materialize. Our focused strategy of being the leading player in powersports, coupled with the significant opportunity to get back to optimal dealer inventory levels, gives us confidence in our ability to drive continued performance for Polaris and value creation for our shareholders.

-- Mike Speetzen, Chief Executive Officer of Polaris Inc.

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY (Reported)

Polaris Inc. (NYSE: PII) (the "Company") today released second quarter 2022 results, which ended June 30, 2022. The Company reported worldwide sales of $2,063 million, up eight percent versus the second quarter of 2021. North America sales of $1,748 million represented 85 percent of total company sales and increased nine percent from $1,600 million in 2021. International sales of $315 million represented 15 percent of total company sales and increased one percent. Sales in the second quarter of 2022 were largely impacted by strong mix and pricing offset by volume declines related to continued supply chain challenges reducing shipments and low dealer inventory levels.

As reported, second quarter net income from continuing operations attributable to Polaris of $142 million decreased nine percent and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations (EPS) of $2.34 decreased five percent compared to the second quarter in 2021. Adjusted net income from continuing operations attributable to Polaris for the quarter was $147 million, down 11 percent and adjusted EPS of $2.42 was down seven percent, in each case as compared to the second quarter of 2021.

Gross profit margin contracted 303 basis points to 23.0 percent. Adjusted gross profit margin of 23.0 percent contracted 312 basis points driven primarily by increased costs including raw materials, freight and inefficiencies associated with supply chain challenges, partially offset by strong pricing.

Operating expenses were $292 million in the second quarter of 2022 compared to $300 million in the second quarter of 2021 due to lower sales and marketing as we prudently navigate through supply chain challenges. Operating expenses, as a percentage of sales, of 14.1 percent were down in the second quarter 2022 compared to the second quarter of 2021.

Off-Road segment results were primarily driven by these factors:

  • Sales were driven by increased pricing on new and pre-sold orders, partially offset by volume despite modest sequential improvement in component availability.
  • Parts, Garments and Accessories (PG&A) sales, which now includes relevant powersports aftermarket sales, decreased three percent.
  • Gross profit margin performance was primarily driven by negative mix and higher input costs, partially offset by increased pricing and continued low promotional costs.
  • Polaris North America ORV unit retail sales were down mid-twenties percent. Estimated North America industry ORV unit retail sales were down mid-teens percent.

On-Road segment results were primarily driven by these factors:

  • Sales were impacted by lower shipments driven by supply chain challenges, despite modest sequential improvement in component availability and shipments, strong demand, and pricing.
  • PG&A sales, which now includes relevant powersports aftermarket sales, increased 24 percent.
  • Gross profit margin performance was driven primarily by higher input costs and supply chain constraints, partially offset by favorable product mix and lower promotions costs.
  • North America unit retail sales for Indian Motorcycle were down low-forties percent. North America unit retail sales for the comparable motorcycle industry were down mid-twenties percent.

Marine segment results were primarily driven by these factors:

  • Sales results were driven by favorable mix, positive pricing and unit volume.
  • Gross profit margin performance was driven by better product mix offsetting higher input costs and supply chain constraints.

2022 BUSINESS OUTLOOK

The Company has updated its 2022 guidance expectations to reflect the divestiture of TAP early in the third quarter. The Company now expects 2022 sales to increase 13 percent to 16 percent versus prior guidance of 12 percent to 15 percent. The Company now expects adjusted diluted EPS from continuing operations attributed to Polaris Inc. common shareholders to be in the range of $10.10 to $10.30 for the full year 2022, an increase of 11 percent to 14 percent from 2021.

NON-GAAP ADJUSTMENTS
Second Quarter 2022 Results & 2022 Full Year Guidance

Restructuring and Realignment Costs

Polaris announced in 2017 that it was making changes to its network to consolidate production and distribution of like products and better leverage plant capacity and embarked on a multi-phase supply chain transformation initiative to continue to leverage its supply chain as a strategic asset. The Company is also executing certain corporate restructuring across the organization to increase efficiency and focus its business including divesting of the GEM and Taylor-Dunn businesses. For the second quarter of 2022, the Company has recorded combined costs totaling $0.5 million which was included as a NON-GAAP adjustment.

Intangible amortization related to acquisitions

The Company uses an adjusted net income metric which excludes intangible amortization from all historical business acquisitions. The Company believes this NON-GAAP information is useful to understanding its operating results and the ongoing performance of its underlying businesses because the amount and timing of such charges are significantly impacted by the timing, size, number and nature of the acquisitions the Company completes. For the second quarter of 2022, Polaris recorded $5 million of intangible amortization related to acquisitions as a NON-GAAP adjustment.

2022 Adjusted Guidance

2022 guidance excludes the pre-tax effect of supply chain transformation, restructuring and network realignment costs of approximately $10 million, and approximately $5 to $10 million for class action litigation-related expenses. Intangible amortization of approximately $20 million related to all acquisitions has also been excluded. The Company has not provided reconciliations of guidance for adjusted diluted net income per share, in reliance on the unreasonable efforts exception provided under Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Regulation S-K. The Company is unable, without unreasonable efforts, to forecast certain items required to develop meaningful comparable GAAP financial measures. These items include restructuring and realignment costs and acquisition integration costs that are difficult to predict in advance in order to include in a GAAP estimate.
