CEO Commentary
“Winnebago Industries performed ahead of our expectations in the first quarter and demonstrated clear progress on our priorities,” said Michael Happe, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “Although the retail demand environment is dynamic and dealer order patterns remain highly seasonal, we delivered meaningful top-line growth and margin expansion in both our Motorhome and Towable RV segments. These results were driven primarily by new products, select pricing actions, production discipline, strong cost management, and the benefit of a product portfolio that is increasingly aligned to where consumers are spending. We also strengthened our balance sheet, reinforcing the financial flexibility that supports our long-term ambitions.
“Our Motorhome RV segment continued its momentum, propelled by the sustained appeal of our premium Newmar products and the growing presence of our Grand Design motorized offerings,” said Happe. “These brands are deepening our reach in both the luxury Class A and core Class C markets, and their performance in the quarter reflects the advantages of our focused innovation roadmap. Our Towable RV segment also posted solid top-line growth and higher operating income margins, supported by a refreshed dual brand lineup that continues to resonate with consumers seeking high quality and thoughtful design. Together, these RV platforms demonstrate the power of our diversified approach and our ability to compete effectively across price bands and use cases.
“Our Marine segment also performed well in the first quarter, with modest year-over-year revenue growth and healthy operating income margins as we navigate a softer market. Barletta continues to outperform the U.S. aluminum pontoon segment, achieving a 9.1% market share for the 12 months ended October 31, up 30 basis points from the prior year(1). We continue to prioritize brand strength, operational efficiency and channel health, positioning our marine business to capitalize as conditions improve.
“Our continued commitment to financial discipline underscores the strength of Winnebago Industries,” Happe said. “In Q1, we generated positive operating cash flow, reflecting a meaningful increase over the prior year and continued to improve our net leverage position. Our capital allocation strategy remains focused on supporting profitable growth initiatives across the company while strengthening the balance sheet.”
First Quarter Fiscal 2026 Results
Net revenues were $702.7 million, an increase of 12.3% compared to $625.6 million in the first quarter of Fiscal 2025, driven primarily by higher unit volume and selective price increases.
Gross profit was $89.0 million, an increase of 15.9% compared to $76.8 million in the first quarter of Fiscal 2025. Gross profit margin increased 40 basis points in the quarter to 12.7%, primarily due to volume leverage, partially offset by higher warranty expense.
Operating expenses were $75.2 million, a decrease of 3.2% compared to $77.7 million in the first quarter of Fiscal 2025, primarily due to cost reduction initiatives, partially offset by costs to support the growth of the Grand Design motorhome business.
Operating income was $13.8 million compared to operating loss of $0.9 million in the first quarter of Fiscal 2025.
Net income was $5.5 million, compared to net loss of $5.2 million in the first quarter of Fiscal 2025. Reported net income per diluted share was $0.19, compared to reported net loss per diluted share of $0.18 in the first quarter of Fiscal 2025. Adjusted earnings per diluted share was $0.38 compared to adjusted loss per diluted share of $0.03 in the first quarter of Fiscal 2025.
Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA was $30.2 million, an increase of 109.7%, compared to $14.4 million in the first quarter of Fiscal 2025.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow
At the end of the first quarter of Fiscal 2026, cash and cash equivalents totaled $181.7 million compared to $174.0 million at the end of Fiscal 2025 fourth quarter. Total outstanding debt was $541.0 million, which included $550.0 million of debt, net of debt issuance costs of $9.0 million. Working capital improved to $488.1 million, reflecting disciplined balance sheet management and stronger operating efficiency. Cash flow provided by operations was $25.4 million in the first quarter of Fiscal 2026 compared to cash flow used in operations of $16.7 million in the first quarter of Fiscal 2025. The Company’s net leverage ratio improved to 2.7x at the end of the first quarter of Fiscal 2026 compared to 3.1x at the end of the Fiscal 2025 fourth quarter.
Quarterly Cash Dividend
On December 17, 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.35 per share payable on January 28, 2026, to common stockholders of record at the close of business on January 14, 2026.
Outlook
For calendar year 2025, Winnebago Industries now expects North American RV wholesale shipments in the range of 335,000 to 345,000 units, or a midpoint of 340,000 units, compared with a prior midpoint of 330,000 units. For calendar year 2026, North American RV wholesale shipments in the range of 315,000 to 345,000 units, unchanged from the Company’s prior estimate. Based on this outlook, the current business environment, and its first quarter results, Winnebago Industries revised its Fiscal 2026 financial guidance as follows:
- Consolidated net revenues in the range of $2.8 billion to $3.0 billion, compared with the Company’s prior expectation for consolidated net revenues in the range of $2.75 billion to $2.95 billion;
- Reported earnings per diluted share in the range of $1.40 to $2.10, compared with the Company’s prior expectation for reported earnings per diluted share in the range of $1.25 to $1.95; and
- Adjusted earnings per diluted share guidance to a range of $2.10 to $2.80(2), compared with the Company’s prior expectation for adjusted earnings per diluted share in the range of $2.00 to $2.70.
The Company’s outlook takes into account prevailing trends in the RV sector, including the current tariff structure and rates, competitive dynamics, shifts in consumer preferences, and key macroeconomic factors that may influence overall demand.
“Even with macroeconomic uncertainty persisting and industry short-term retail demand still tempered, we expect our second-quarter Fiscal 2026 performance to be stronger than the same period last year, but seasonally lower than the first-quarter results announced today. We continue to focus on relentless, quarter-by-quarter execution supported by new product momentum, efficient inventory management, the revitalization of our Winnebago-branded RV businesses, and clear strategy to prioritize stronger profitability and cash flow across our portfolio,” Happe said. “As industry demand gradually recovers, the margin and efficiency improvements we are executing, together with new product offerings, enhance our competitive position and provide a solid foundation for second half success in Fiscal 2026, which is reflected in our positive, but still disciplined guidance outlook.”

Non-GAAP performance measures of Adjusted diluted earnings per share, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have been provided as comparable measures to illustrate the effect of non-recurring transactions occurring during the reported periods and to improve comparability of our results from period to period. Adjusted diluted earnings per share is defined as diluted earnings per share adjusted for after-tax items that impact the comparability of our results from period to period. 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. Management believes Adjusted diluted earnings per share and Adjusted EBITDA provide meaningful supplemental information about our operating performance because these measures exclude amounts that we do not consider part of our core operating results when assessing our performance.
Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures (a) to evaluate historical and prospective financial performance and trends as well as assess 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 basis of operating performance as is used by management in its assessments of performance and in forecasting and budgeting for the Company; (d) to evaluate potential acquisitions; and (e) to ensure compliance with restricted activities under the terms of our asset-backed revolving credit facility and outstanding notes. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry.
