ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations, generally, as of and for fiscal years 2025 and 2024 should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. For discussion related to the results of operations and changes in financial condition for fiscal year 2024 compared to fiscal year 2023 refer to Part II, Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our fiscal year 2024 Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on February 28, 2025. The purpose of this discussion is to focus on information concerning our financial condition and results of operations that is not readily apparent from our consolidated financial statements and related notes.This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed below. You should review the “Risk Factors” and “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” sections of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for a discussion of important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results described in or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in the following discussion and analysis.

Overview

We design, engineer, manufacture and market performance-defining products and systems for customers worldwide. Our premium brands on performance-defining products and systems are used primarily on bikes, side-by-sides, on-road vehicles with and without off-road capabilities, off-road vehicles and trucks, motorcycles, all terrain vehicles (“ATVs”), snowmobiles, and specialty vehicles and applications. In addition, we also offer premium baseball and softball gear and equipment. Virtually all of our revenue was from our product sales. Miscellaneous sources of revenue such as service-related repair work and the associated sale of parts represented less than 2% of our sales in each of the years ended January 2, 2026, January 3, 2025 and December 29, 2023.

We determined that we operate in three reportable segments: PVG, AAG, and SSG. Our products fall into the following three categories:

•powered vehicles, including side-by-sides, certain on-road vehicles with and without off-road capabilities, off-road vehicles and trucks, ATVs, snowmobiles, specialty vehicles and applications, including military, motorcycles, and commercial trucks;

•aftermarket applications, mainly consisting of products for off-road vehicles and trucks, side-by-sides, on-road vehicles with or without off-road capabilities, specialty vehicles and applications as well as lift kits and components with our shock products and aftermarket accessory packages; and

•specialty sports products, which consist primarily of bike suspension, component products, and gear and equipment for baseball and softball.

The following table summarizes percentages of net sales by segment:

For the fiscal years ended

Powered Vehicles Group 33 % 33 % 36 %

Aftermarket Applications Group 32 % 30 % 38 %

Specialty Sports Group 35 % 37 % 26 %

Sales attributable to countries outside the U.S. are based on shipment location. Our international sales, however, do not necessarily reflect the location of the end users of our products as many of our products are incorporated into bikes that are assembled at international locations and then shipped back to the U.S.

Opportunities, challenges and risks

We intend to focus on generating sales of our performance-defining products through OEMs, aftermarket, retail, and direct-to-consumer channels. To do this, we intend to continue to develop and introduce new and innovative products in our current end-markets and we intend to selectively develop products for applications and end-markets in which we do not currently participate. Currently, the majority of our sales are dependent on the demand for performance-defining products.

As a supplier to OEM customers, we are largely dependent on the success of the business of our OEM customers. Model year changes by our OEM customers may adversely impact our sales or cause our sales to vary from quarter to quarter. Losses in market share or a decline in the overall market of our OEM customers or the discontinuance by our OEM customers of their products that incorporate our products could negatively impact our business and our results of operations. See “Risks Related to Our Business and Operations”within Item 1A. Risk Factors.

Our aftermarket distribution network currently consists of more than 9,600 retail dealers and distributors worldwide. To further penetrate the aftermarket channel, we intend to selectively add additional dealers and distributors in certain geographic markets, expand our internal sales force and strategically increase the number of aftermarket specific products and services that we offer for existing vehicle platforms.

From time to time, we have experienced, and may continue to experience, inventory risks, including excess, obsolete, or slow-moving inventory, as well as warranty costs and claims relating to our products. In the ordinary course of business, we reserve for these matters in our financial statements. There is a risk, however, that in the future we will experience higher than expected inventory adjustments or write-downs, warranty costs and claims, as well as other related costs. Please read “Risks Related to Our Business and Operations - If we inaccurately forecast demand for our products or inaccurately predict OEM and dealer destocking and restocking cycles and production schedules, we may manufacture insufficient or excess quantities or our manufacturing costs could increase, which could adversely affect our business” and “Product recalls, and significant product repair and/or replacement due to product warranty costs and claims have had, and in the future, could have, a material adverse impact on our business” within Item 1A. Risk Factors of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

From time to time, we evaluate our portfolio of businesses and may pursue divestitures of non‐core or underperforming operations as part of our strategy to focus on higher‐growth, higher‐margin areas. Divestitures may result in transitional costs, potential loss of revenue, and other financial impacts during and after the separation, including possible gains or losses on disposal depending on the structure and timing of the transaction. These transactions can also create operational risks, including disruption to employees and customers and reliance on transition services arrangements for a period of time. We continue to assess opportunities to streamline our portfolio and allocate capital and management attention to areas that best support our strategic objectives.

We intend to evaluate selective potential acquisition opportunities for performance-defining products and technologies that we believe will help us extend our performance-defining product platform. Any acquisitions that we might make are subject to various risks and uncertainties and could have a negative impact on our results of operations. In addition, we may contractually obligate ourselves to contingent consideration or acquisition-related compensation payments in conjunction with such acquisitions, which could have a negative impact on our cash flow and results of operations. See Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Liquidity and Capital Resources - Material Cash Requirements for additional information.

Our operations and supply chain are directly impacted by evolving U.S. trade policies and global tariffs. The current presidential administration expanded tariffs on steel, aluminum, and derivative products, imposed new tariffs on imports from China, Hong Kong, Mexico, and Canada, and proposed a shift toward reciprocal tariffs. These changes create uncertainty in global trade, potentially increasing our material costs, disrupting our supply chain, and affecting our pricing strategies. As tariffs continue to evolve, we may need to adjust our sourcing, production, and pricing to remain competitive and mitigate financial and operational risks. Please read “Risks Related to Laws and Regulations - U.S. policies related to global trade and tariffs could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations” within Item 1A. Risk Factors of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Basis of presentation

Composition of net sales

Sales from:

•Product sales: consist of sales of performance-defining products and systems to customers worldwide. Sales are measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer. We recognize sales when a performance obligation is satisfied by transferring control of a product to a customer, generally at the time of shipment for most products and over the time it takes to complete certain Outside Van upfit packages. Contracts are generally in the form of purchase orders and are governed by standard terms and conditions. For larger OEMs, dealers and retailers, we may also enter into master agreements;

•Service sales: consist of revenue generated from maintenance, repair, installation, and other support services provided to customers. These services are typically recognized as revenue when the service is performed;

•Tariff surcharges: consist of amounts billed to customers to recover tariff costs and are recorded as revenue when the associated products are recognized as revenue; and

•Shipping and handling fees: consists of shipping and handling fees billed to customers.

Net of:

•Rebates: consists of incentives we provide to customers based on sales of eligible products; and

•Sales returns allowances: consists of an estimate of our sales returns. This allowance is based upon estimates of the projected returns in future periods based on our experience with returns recorded in previous periods. Sales returns have not been significant to date.

Cost of sales

Cost of sales includes the cost of purchased parts and manufactured products (raw materials consumed, the cost to procure materials, labor costs, including wages, and employee benefits, and factory overhead to produce finished goods or products), including:

•the costs to inspect and repair products;

•shipping costs associated with inbound freight (such costs are capitalized as part of inventory and included in cost of sales as the inventory is sold);

•royalty expenses, including payments to certain parties for our use of licensed technology incorporated into our products;

•freight expenses incurred for certain shipments to customers;

•tariffs;

•warranty costs associated with the repair or replacement of products under warranty; and

•reductions in the carrying value of inventory to its net realizable value, if required, for estimated excess, obsolescence or impaired balances.

Gross profit/gross margin

Our gross profit equals our net sales minus cost of sales. Our gross margin measures our gross profit as a percentage of net sales.

Our gross margins fluctuate based on production volumes, product, customer and channel mix and overall supply chain and manufacturing efficiencies. Generally, we earn higher gross margins on our products sold to the aftermarket/non-OEM channel.

Operating expenses

Our operating expenses consist of the following:

•goodwill impairment;

•sales and marketing;

•research and development;

•general and administrative;

39

Table of Contents

•amortization of purchased intangibles; and

•intangible and long-lived asset impairment.

Our goodwill impairment expense reflects non-cash charges recognized when the carrying value of goodwill exceeds its estimated fair value. We perform a goodwill impairment assessment at least annually but may perform interim assessments in the event of a triggering event that may indicate the fair value of a reporting unit decreased below its carrying value. During the year ended January 2, 2026, we recorded $557.3 million goodwill impairment charges as a result of our assessments. No goodwill impairments were identified in the years ended January 3, 2025 and December 29, 2023.

Our sales and marketing expenses include costs related to our net sales, customer service and marketing personnel, including their wages, employee benefits and related stock-based compensation, and occupancy-related expenses. Other significant sales and marketing expenses include commissions paid to outside sales representatives, promotional materials and products, our sales office costs, third-party marketing spend, race support and sponsorships of events and athletes, advertising and promotions related to trade shows, and travel and entertainment.

Our research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and personnel costs, including wages, employee benefits and related stock-based compensation for our engineering, research and development teams, occupancy-related expenses, fees for third party consultants, service fees, and expenses for prototype tooling and materials, travel, and supplies. We expense research and development costs as incurred and such costs are included as research and development expenses on our consolidated statements of operations.

Our general and administrative expenses include costs related to our executive, finance, legal, information technology, business development, human resources and administrative personnel, including wages, employee benefits and related stock-based compensation expenses. We record professional and contract service expenses, occupancy-related expenses associated with corporate locations and equipment, and legal expenses in general and administrative expenses.

Our amortization of purchased intangibles includes amortization over their respective useful lives of our purchased intangible assets, such as customer lists, trade names, and our core technology. Our intangible assets are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets may not be fully recoverable. In the year ended January 2, 2026, we recognized $8.0 million impairments of intangible assets. No impairments of intangible assets were identified in the years ended January 3, 2025 and December 29, 2023.

Our intangible and long-lived asset impairment expense includes non-cash charges recognized when the carrying value of intangible and other long-lived assets is not recoverable. When indicators of impairment are present, we assess the asset’s recoverability and, if necessary, write it down to its estimated fair value. In the year ended January 2, 2026, we recorded total intangible and long-lived asset impairments of $13.5 million, inclusive of the $8.0 million intangible asset impairments described above. No impairments of long-lived assets were identified in the years ended January 3, 2025 and December 29, 2023.

Income from operations

We define income from operations as gross profit less our operating expenses.

Interest and other expense, net

Interest expense consists of interest charged to us under our credit facility, changes related to our interest rate swap, and interest on supplier-financed chassis.

Other expense, net, consists of foreign currency transaction gains and losses, gains and losses on the disposal of fixed assets, and other miscellaneous items.

Income taxes

We are subject to income taxes in the U.S. (federal and state) and various other foreign jurisdictions. Our effective tax rate could be affected by numerous factors such as changes in our business operations, acquisitions, investments, entry into new businesses and geographies, intercompany transactions, the relative amount of our foreign earnings, losses incurred in jurisdictions for which we are not able to realize related tax benefits, changes in our deferred tax assets and liabilities and their valuation, changes in the laws, regulations, administrative practices, principles, and interpretations related to tax, including changes to the global tax framework and other laws and accounting rules in various jurisdictions.

For the years ended January 2, 2026, January 3, 2025 and December 29, 2023, we had effective tax rates of 5.5%, (543.5)% and 12.8%, respectively.

As of January 2, 2026, our deferred tax assets included foreign tax credits of approximately $45.4 million, which begin to expire in 2028 unless utilized.

40

Table of Contents

Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. The Company is implementing tax planning strategies and operational measures to support the realizability of its general category foreign tax credits and to mitigate valuation allowance risk. As of January 2, 2026, the Company determined a valuation allowance was needed for branch foreign tax credits. In the future, our effective tax rate could vary as we update our assessment of valuation allowances for our deferred tax assets, including those associated with credit carryforwards. It is reasonably possible that we could record a material adjustment to the valuation allowance in the next 12 months.

We are subject to examination of our income tax returns by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) and other tax authorities. We regularly assess the likelihood of adverse outcomes resulting from these examinations to determine the adequacy of our income tax liabilities and expense. Should actual events or results differ from our current expectations, charges or credits to our income tax expense may become necessary. Any such adjustments could have a significant impact on our effective tax rate.

Non-controlling interests (“NCI”)

Non-controlling interests represent the portion of income or loss and the corresponding equity attributable to third-party equity holders in certain consolidated subsidiaries that are not 100% owned by us. NCI are presented as separate components in our consolidated statements of operations to clearly differentiate between our interests and the economic interests of third parties in those entities. Net (loss) income attributable to FOX stockholders, as reported in the consolidated statements of operations, is presented net of the portion of net income (loss) attributable to non-controlling interests.

In May 2024, the Company formed a joint venture, The Stable JV, LLC, whereby the Company owns a 51% membership interest. The joint venture was created with the purpose of offering specialized training programs to high performance athletes, as well as the development of training apparel and other products.

Net sales

For the fiscal years ended

(in millions) January 2, 2026 January 3, 2025 Change ($) Change (%)

Net sales for the year ended January 2, 2026 increased approximately $73.4 million, or 5.3%, compared to the year ended January 3, 2025. The increase in net sales is primarily due to increased demand for aftermarket applications, improved performance in our upfitting product lines, and the market share gain in powersports, which offset lower industry demand in the automotive OE product lines. Although net sales increased, high interest rates impacting industry and consumer demands, high vehicle costs, and macro-economic conditions remain headwinds.

Cost of sales

For the fiscal years ended

(in millions) January 2, 2026 January 3, 2025 Change ($) Change (%)

Cost of sales for the year ended January 2, 2026 increased approximately $53.8 million, or 5.5%, compared to the year ended January 3, 2025. The increase in cost of sales was mainly due to our increased sales and the impact of tariffs.

For the year ended January 2, 2026, our gross margin was 30.2% compared to 30.4% for the year ended January 3, 2025.The decrease in gross margin for the fiscal year 2025 was primarily due to the shifts in our product line mix and the impact of tariffs.

Operating expenses

Amortization of purchased intangibles 42.0 44.5 (2.5) (5.6)

Intangible and long-lived asset impairment 13.5 — 13.5 N/A

Total operating expenses for the year ended January 2, 2026 increased approximately $600.2 million, or 164.0%, over the comparable period in 2024. When expressed as a percentage of net sales, operating expenses increased to 65.8% of net sales for the year ended January 2, 2026, compared to 26.3% of net sales for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2025.

During the fiscal year 2025, we recognized goodwill impairment charges of $557.3 million and intangible and long-lived asset impairment charges of $13.5 million as a result of our quantitative assessments on goodwill and long-lived assets triggered by adverse changes in U.S. tariff policies, new and expanded tariffs enacted by the current presidential administration, and resulting sustained decline in our stock price. General and administrative expenses increased by approximately $11.9 million primarily due to organizational restructuring. Sales and marketing expenses and research and development expenses increased approximately $10.9 million and $9.1 million, respectively, driven by higher investments to support future growth and product innovation. Amortization of purchased intangible assets for the year ended January 2, 2026 decreased by approximately $2.5 million, as compared to the year ended January 3, 2025, primarily due to certain intangible assets becoming fully amortized early in the year.

Income tax benefit for the year ended January 2, 2026 increased by approximately $26.1 million to a benefit of $31.6 million compared to $5.5 million for the year ended January 3, 2025. The increase primarily resulted from the impairment impact of non-deductible goodwill recognized during the year.

The effective tax rates were 5.5% and (543.5)% for the years ended January 2, 2026 and January 3, 2025, respectively.

For the year ended January 2, 2026, the difference between our effective tax rate and the 21% federal statutory rate resulted primarily from the impairment impact of non-deductible goodwill recognized during the year.

For the year ended January 3, 2025, the difference between our effective tax rate and the 21% federal statutory rate resulted primarily from a benefit from the U.S. research and development tax credit.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary cash needs are to support working capital, interest on debt, employee compensation, capital expenditures, acquisitions, debt repayments, and other general corporate purposes. Historically, we have generally financed our liquidity needs with operating cash flows, borrowings under our Amended Credit Agreement, and the issuance of common stock. These sources of liquidity may be impacted by factors and events described in Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements and Item 1A. Risk Factors.

As of January 2, 2026, we held $8.9 million of our $58.0 million of cash and cash equivalents in accounts of our subsidiaries outside of the U.S., which we may repatriate.

A summary of our operating, investing and financing activities is shown in the following table:

For the years ended

Net cash provided by operating activities $ 60.9 $ 131.8 $ 178.7

Net cash used in investing activities (34.0) (76.3) (750.4)

Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities (40.0) (67.3) 509.0

Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents (0.6) (0.2) 1.1

Decrease in cash and cash equivalents $ (13.7) $ (12.0) $ (61.6)

*Amounts may not foot due to rounding.

We expect that cash on hand, cash flow from operations and availability under our Amended Credit Agreement will be sufficient to fund our operations during the next 12 months from the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K and beyond.

Operating activities

In the fiscal year ended January 2, 2026, net cash provided by operating activities was $60.9 million. The change in our operating assets and liabilities is a result of an increase in prepaids and other current assets of $27.1 million, an increase in accounts receivable of $23.5 million, a decrease in accrued expenses and other liabilities of $7.3 million, and a decrease in income taxes payable of $1.9 million, partially offset by a decrease in inventory of $18.0 million, and an increase in accounts payable of $1.2 million. The increase in prepaids and other current assets is primarily due to an increase in prepaid chassis deposits to meet next year upfitting production needs. The increase in our accounts receivable reflects higher sales and the timing of customer collections. The decrease in our accounts payable is driven by timing of inventory purchases and vendor payments. The decrease in income taxes payable is mainly due to lower pre-tax income and tax payments. The decrease in inventory is driven by strong execution of continuous improvement efforts to optimize inventory levels across the organization, particularly within PVG, which offset some of the impact from higher tariffs.

In the fiscal year ended January 3, 2025, net cash provided by operating activities was $131.8 million. The change in our operating assets and liabilities is a result of a decrease in prepaids and other current assets of $48.5 million, an increase in accounts payable of $15.0 million, a decrease in accounts receivable of $10.4 million, and an increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities of $5.4 million, partially offset by an increase in inventory of $26.5 million, and a decrease in income taxes payable of $11.2 million. The decrease in prepaids and other current assets is primarily due to lower prepaid chassis deposits driven by the sale of 2023 and 2024 model year chassis. The change in our accounts payable is driven by timing of inventory purchases and vendor payments. The change in our accounts receivable reflects a shift in our product line mix and the timing of customer collections. The increase in inventory excluding acquired inventory reflects an imbalance between expected and realized orders. The change in income taxes payable is mainly due to lower pre-tax income.

In the fiscal year ended December 29, 2023, cash provided by operating activities was $178.7 million. Our investment in operating assets and liabilities is a result of an increase in prepaids and other current assets of $38.2 million primarily due to carrying more chassis to meet current year production needs for the upfitting product lines, and decreases in accounts payable of $44.0 million, accrued expenses and other liabilities of $21.4 million, and income taxes payable of $19.1 million, partially offset by decreases in accounts receivable of $64.5 million and inventory of $31.6 million. The change in our accounts receivable reflects a shift in our product line mix and the timing of customer collections. The change in our accounts payable is driven by timing of inventory purchases and vendor payments. The change in accrued expenses and other liabilities is primarily due to payments made for compensation and tax-related accruals and our cost control measures, partially offset by acquired accrued expenses. The decrease in inventory excluding acquired inventory reflects our continued efforts to optimize inventory levels.

In the fiscal year ended January 3, 2025, net cash provided by financing activities was $67.3 million, which primarily consisted of $406.0 million in payments on our revolver, $25.0 million to repurchase shares of our common stock, $19.3 million in repayments on our Incremental Term Loans (as defined below), $3.4 million in deferred fees for debt modifications, $2.6 million net of proceeds from the exercise of stock options, as part of our stock-based compensation program, partially offset by $200.0 million proceeds from the Delayed Draw Term Loan (as defined below) and $189.0 million proceeds from the revolver, which were used to support our working capital and the acquisition of Marzocchi.

In the fiscal year ended December 29, 2023, net cash provided by financing activities was $509.0 million, which primarily consisted of proceeds from our Credit Agreement (as defined below) of $793.5 million, which was used to support our working capital and the purchases of Marucci and Custom Wheel House, partially offset by $230.0 million in payments on our revolver, $20.0 million in prepayments on our Term A Loan (as defined below), $25.0 million to repurchase shares of our common stock, $6.2 million to repurchase shares of our common stock to cover withholding taxes from our stock-based compensation program, and $3.4 million in deferred debt issuance costs.

Credit Agreement

On April 5, 2022, the Company entered into a new credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, and other named lenders (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement, which matures on April 5, 2027, provides for revolving loans, swingline loans and letters of credit up to an aggregate amount of $650.0 million.

The Company may borrow, prepay and re-borrow principal under the Credit Agreement during its term. Advances under the Credit Agreement can be either Adjusted Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) loans or base rate loans. SOFR rate revolving loans bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each interest period at a rate per annum equal to Term SOFR for such calculation plus 0.10% plus a margin ranging from 1.00% to 2.25%. Base rate revolving loans bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof at a rate per annum equal to the highest of (i) Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%, (ii) the rate of interest in effect for such day as publicly announced from time to time by the lender as its “prime rate”, and (iii) Adjusted Term SOFR rate for a one-month tenor plus 1.00%, subject to the interest rate floors set forth therein, plus a margin ranging from 0.00% to 1.00%.

On November 14, 2023, in connection and concurrently with the closing of the Marucci acquisition, the Company entered into the First Incremental Facility Amendment (the “First Amendment”) amending the Credit Agreement. The Amendment provided the Company with a term loan in an amount of $400.0 million (the “Incremental Term A Loan”) and a delayed draw term loan in an amount of $200.0 million (the “Delayed Draw Term Loan” and, together with the Incremental Term A Loan, the “Incremental Terms Loans”), each of which are permitted under the Credit Agreement, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions. The Incremental Term A Loan was fully funded on November 14, 2023 and used to fund a portion of the consideration owed under the Marucci acquisition. The Delayed Draw Term Loan was available to the Company from and including December 6, 2023, until the earlier of May 14, 2024 and the date on which the Delayed Draw Term Loan commitments have been terminated. Each Incremental Term Loan is subject to quarterly amortization payments of principal at a rate of 5.00% per annum. The Incremental Term Loans are in the form of term SOFR loans and base rate loans, at the option of the Company, and have an applicable margin ranging from 0.50% to 1.50% for base rate loans and 1.50% to 2.50% for term SOFR loans, subject to adjustment provisions. Each Incremental Term Loan has a maturity date of April 5, 2027, consistent with the Credit Agreement.

The Company paid $10.1 million in debt issuance costs, of which $6.7 million were allocated to the Incremental Term A Loan and $3.4 million were allocated to the Delayed Draw Term Loan. Loan fees allocated to the Incremental Term A Loan are amortized using the interest method over the term of the Credit Agreement. Loan fees allocated to the Delayed Draw Term Loan were deferred as an asset until the debt was drawn.

On May 13, 2024, the Company borrowed the full amount of $200.0 million of the Delayed Draw Term Loan. The fees were reclassified to a contra-liability account and amortized over the term of the drawn debt using the interest method.

On July 31, 2024 and December 20, 2024, the Company entered into the Third and Fourth Amendments to the Credit Agreement, respectively, to secure an improved covenant profile on its capital structure to provide more flexibility given the uncertain macro environment. The Company paid $3.5 million in loan fees for the Third and Fourth Amendments, of which $3.4 million were allocated among the revolver and the Incremental Term Loans to be amortized over the remaining term of the Credit Agreement.

Amended Credit Agreement

On October 24, 2025, the Company entered into the Fifth Amendment to the Credit Agreement and Second Amendment to Guaranty and Security Agreement (the “Fifth Amendment”) among the Company, certain subsidiaries of the Company, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, swingline lender and L/C issuer (the “Agent”), and a group of lenders party thereto. The Fifth Amendment amends the Credit Agreement, dated as of April 5, 2022 (as amended prior to the Fifth Amendment, the “Credit Agreement” and, as amended by the Fifth Amendment, the “Amended Credit Agreement”), and the Guaranty and Security Agreement, dated as of April 5, 2022, as amended prior to the Fifth Amendment, which secures the obligations under the Credit Agreement in favor of the Agent for the benefit of the lenders and other secured parties. Terms not otherwise defined below will have the meaning as set forth in the Amended Credit Agreement.

The Fifth Amendment, among other things, amends the Credit Agreement to replace the existing loans provided under the Credit Agreement with (i) a term loan in the aggregate outstanding amount of $537.5 million (the “Term Loan”), which will be repaid by the Company in quarterly installments in the amount of $6.7 million, (ii) revolving loans in an aggregate amount of up to $500.0 million, with sub-facilities for swing line loans in an aggregate amount of up to $25.0 million and letters of credit in an aggregate amount of up to $25.0 million (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), and (iii) an incremental loan facility, subject to additional terms set forth in the Amended Credit Agreement, in an aggregate amount of up to $175.0 million plus an unlimited amount so long as after giving effect to the incurrence of such incremental loans, on a pro forma basis, the Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio is less than 3.25. To the extent not previously paid, all then-outstanding amounts under the Term Loan and the Revolving Credit Facility are due and payable on October 24, 2030.

The Term Loan and advances under the Revolving Credit Facility can be either SOFR loans or base rate loans. SOFR loans bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each interest period at a rate per annum equal to the term SOFR for such calculation plus a margin ranging from 1.00% to 2.50%. Base rate loans bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof at a rate per annum equal to the highest of (i) Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%, (ii) the rate of interest in effect for such day as publicly announced from time to time by the Agent as its “prime rate,” and (iii) term SOFR rate for a one-month tenor plus 1.00%, subject to the interest rate floors set forth in the Amended Credit Agreement, plus a margin ranging from 0.00% to 1.50%.

In connection with the Fifth Amendment, the Company borrowed $710.0 million under the Amended Credit Agreement consisting of the $537.5 million Term Loan and $172.5 million under the Revolving Credit Facility, which was used to repay all outstanding amounts owed under the Credit Agreement prior to the Fifth Amendment and for general corporate purposes.

Table of Contents

The Company paid $6.0 million in debt issuance costs in connection with the Fifth Amendment, of which $5.8 million was allocated between the Term Loan and the Revolving Credit Facility to be amortized over the term of the Amended Credit Agreement. Additionally, the Company had $8.1 million of remaining unamortized debt issuance costs related to the Credit Agreement, of which $6.3 million were carried forward to the Amended Credit Agreement and $1.8 million were written off as a loss on debt extinguishment.

The Amended Credit Agreement is secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets, restricts the Company’s ability to make certain payments and engage in certain transactions, and requires that the Company satisfy customary financial ratios. The Company was in compliance with the covenants as of January 2, 2026.

At January 2, 2026, the one-month SOFR and three-month SOFR rates were 3.78% and 4.00%, respectively. At January 2, 2026, our weighted-average interest rate on outstanding borrowing was 6.05%.

Material Cash Requirements

As of January 2, 2026, we had the following material cash requirements related to commitments or contractual obligations (in millions):

*Amounts may not foot due to rounding.

Seasonality

Certain portions of our business are seasonal; we believe this seasonality is due to the delivery of new products. As we have diversified our product offerings and our product launch cycles, seasonal fluctuations are becoming less material.

Inflation

Historically, inflation has not had a material effect on our results of operations. However, significant increases in inflation, particularly those related to wages and increases in the cost of raw materials have and could continue to have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Interest Rates

Interest rate volatility can impact our borrowing costs and overall financial condition. While fluctuations in interest rates have not historically had a material effect on our results of operations, significant increases could lead to higher interest expense on our variable-rate debt. To mitigate this risk and enhance predictability, we utilize interest rate swaps to manage our exposure to interest rate fluctuations.

Recent Developments

Global Trade Actions and Tariffs - New and expanded tariffs announced under the current administration and triggered retaliatory actions by certain affected countries, and other foreign governments have introduced additional costs and uncertainty into our supply chain, which impact our cost structure and working capital needs in the near term. We are evaluating the potential effect on our supply chain and sourcing strategies, and while we expect some volatility in cash flows as we adjust, we believe our existing liquidity and access to the Amended Credit Agreement provide sufficient flexibility to manage these developments. Please read “U.S. policies related to global trade and tariffs could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations” within Item 1A. Risk Factors of this Annually Report on Form 10-K.

One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) - On July 4, 2025, the OBBBA was enacted in the U.S. This legislation introduces several significant tax provisions, including the permanent extension of certain expiring provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, changes to the international tax framework, and the reinstatement of favorable tax treatment for select business provisions. The OBBBA includes multiple effective dates, with certain provisions taking effect in 2025 and others phased in through 2027. We reviewed the enacted legislation and determined that these provisions do not affect the measurement of our deferred tax assets and liabilities as of January 2, 2026. We will continue to assess the impact on the effective tax rate for future periods.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

We adopted various accounting policies to prepare the consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1. Description of the Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Some of those significant accounting policies require us to make difficult, subjective, or complex judgments or estimates. An accounting estimate is considered to be critical if it is made in accordance with GAAP and it meets both of the following criteria: (i) the estimate requires assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the accounting estimate is made, and (ii) different estimates reasonably could have been used, or changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur may have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. The significant accounting policies that management believes are critical to the understanding and evaluating our reported financial results include the following: income taxes, inventory, warranty, goodwill and intangible assets, stock-based compensation, revenue recognition, provision for credit losses and fair value measurement. For further information see Note 1. Description of the Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Critical Accounting Policies

Income taxes

We are subject to income taxes in the U.S. (federal and state) and foreign jurisdictions. We compute our provision for income taxes using the asset and liability method, under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates that are expected to apply to taxable income for the years in which those tax assets and liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. The income tax effects of these differences are classified as long-term deferred tax assets and liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets.

Significant judgments are required in order to determine the realizability of these deferred tax assets. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, we evaluate all significant available positive and negative evidence, including but not limited to, historical operating results, forecasted earnings, estimates of future taxable income of a character necessary to realize the deferred asset, relative proportions of revenue and pre-tax income in the various domestic and jurisdictions in which we operate, and the existence of prudent and feasible tax planning strategies. Changes in the expectations regarding the realization of deferred tax assets could materially impact income tax expense in future periods.

Additionally, our judgments, assumptions, and estimates relative to the provision for income taxes take into account enacted tax laws, regulations, administrative practices, interpretations in various jurisdictions and possible outcomes of current and future audits conducted by tax authorities. Our effective tax rates could be affected by numerous factors, such as changes in our business operations, acquisitions, investments, entry into new businesses and geographies, intercompany transactions, the relative amount of our foreign earnings, losses incurred in jurisdictions for which we are not able to realize related tax benefits, changes in our deferred tax assets and liabilities and their valuation, changes in the laws, regulations, administrative practices, principles, and interpretations related to tax, including changes to the global tax framework and other laws and accounting rules in various jurisdictions.

We utilize a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain income tax positions. The first step is to determine if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than 50% likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement. We consider many factors when evaluating tax positions such as the closing of a tax audit, the refinement of estimates, and the expiration of a statute of limitations that may require periodic adjustments that impact our tax provision in our consolidated statements of operations. Interest and penalties associated with income taxes are recorded as income tax expense. Refer to Note 15. Income Taxes for further details.

Table of Contents

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of actual cost (or standard cost which generally approximates actual costs on a first-in first-out basis) or net realizable value. Cost includes raw materials and inbound freight, as well as direct labor and manufacturing overhead for products we manufacture. Net realizable value is based on current replacement cost for raw materials and on a net realizable value for finished goods. Adjustments to reduce the cost of inventory to its net realizable value are made, if required, for estimated excess, obsolete or impaired balances.

We regularly monitor inventory quantities on hand and on order and record write-downs for excess and obsolete inventories based on our estimate of the demand for our products, potential obsolescence of technology, product life cycles, and when pricing trends or forecasts indicate that the carrying value of inventory exceeds our estimated selling price. These factors are affected by market and economic conditions, technology changes, and new product introductions and require estimates that may include elements that are uncertain. Actual demand may differ from forecasted demand and may have a material effect on our gross margin. If inventory is written down, a new cost basis will be established at the end of that fiscal period that cannot be increased in future periods.

Warranty

Unless otherwise required by law, the Company generally offers limited warranties on its products for a one, two or three-year period. We accrue estimated costs related to warranty activities as a component of cost of sales upon product shipment or when information becomes available indicating that an adjustment to the warranty reserves is appropriate. Management estimates are based upon historical and projected product failure rates and historical costs incurred in correcting product failures. The warranty reserve is assessed from time to time for adequacy and adjusted as necessary for specifically identified warranty exposures. Actual warranty expenses are charged against our estimated warranty liability when incurred. Factors that affect our liability include the number of units, historical and anticipated rates of warranty claims, and the cost per claim. An increase in warranty claims or the related costs associated with satisfying these warranty obligations could increase our cost of sales and negatively affect our operating results. Total accrued warranty liabilities were approximately $15.2 million and $21.6 million as of January 2, 2026 and January 3, 2025, respectively. Refer to Note 8. Accrued Expenses for further details.

Goodwill, intangible assets and long-lived assets

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value of the net assets of businesses acquired. On an annual basis, the Company performs a qualitative assessment to determine if it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the Company determines that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, it will perform a quantitative analysis; otherwise, no further evaluation is necessary.

For the quantitative impairment test, the Company compares the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value, including goodwill. The Company determines the fair value of the reporting unit based on a weighting of income and market approaches. The income approach employs a discounted cash flow model, projecting revenue and cash flows over a multi-year period. These projections are based on management’s estimates, historical performance trends, and industry outlooks. These cash flows, along with a terminal value, are discounted to their present value using a weighted-average cost of capital (“WACC”) that reflects a market rate appropriate for each reporting unit. The market approach employs multiples for public companies that reasonably compare to the reporting units. Sensitivity analyses are performed to assess the impact of changes in key assumptions. As a reasonableness check, the impairment assessment also includes a comparison of the aggregate estimated fair value of the reporting units to the Company’s total market capitalization.

If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the net assets assigned to that unit, goodwill is not impaired and no further testing is performed. If the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, then the Company will recognize a loss equal to the excess, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. Impairments, if any, are charged directly to earnings.

In early fiscal year 2025, the Company recognized a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $262.1 million within operating expenses, which impacted all reporting units. The impairment resulted from a triggering event related to adverse changes in U.S. tariff policies, new and expanded tariffs enacted by the current presidential administration, and resulting sustained decline in our stock price. The impairment charge reflects the amount by which the carrying values of the reporting units exceeded their estimated fair values. In the second quarter, the Company conducted a qualitative assessment and concluded that no additional impairment existed as of July 4, 2025. The annual impairment assessment was performed in the third quarter, and the Company concluded that it was not more likely than not that the fair values of the reporting units were less than the carrying values. In the fourth quarter, the Company conducted another quantitative impairment assessment due to a further sustained decrease in our stock price and recorded another non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $295.2 million within operating expenses.

52

Table of Contents

The Company’s goodwill impairment assessment is subject to significant estimates and assumptions. Adverse changes in key assumptions, including projected revenue growth rates, the terminal growth rate, or the WACC could result in additional goodwill impairment charges. As of January 2, 2026, SSG was the only reporting unit with a remaining goodwill balance following the recorded goodwill impairment charges. Based on the most recent quantitative assessment, and for purposes of this sensitivity analysis assuming a 100% weighting to the income approach, a 1.5% increase in the WACC would result in a full future impairment of SSG’s remaining goodwill.

Indefinite-lived intangible assets

Certain trademarks and trade names, including FOX and others from certain subsidiaries, are considered to be indefinite life intangibles, and are not amortized but are subject to testing for impairment annually. Due to the triggering events as described above, the indefinite-lived intangible assets were also assessed for impairment. The Company concluded that no impairment existed as of April 4, 2025. A qualitative assessment performed in the second quarter reached the same conclusion as of July 4, 2025. The annual impairment assessment conducted in the third quarter and the quantitative assessment performed in the fourth quarter also indicated no impairment.

Finite-lived intangible assets and other long-lived assets

We assess the recoverability of identifiable finite-lived intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an asset or asset group’s carrying amount may be impaired. Impairment of certain finite-lived intangible assets, particularly customer relationships, certain trade names and core technology, is measured by comparing the carrying amount of the asset group to which the assets are assigned to the sum of the undiscounted estimated future cash flows the asset group is expected to generate. If the asset or asset group is considered to be impaired, the amount of such impairment would be measured by the difference between the carrying amount of the asset and its fair value.

The Company reviews other long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset is impaired or the estimated useful lives are no longer appropriate. If indicators of impairment exist and the undiscounted projected cash flows associated with such assets are less than the carrying amount of the assets, an impairment loss is recorded to write the assets down to their estimated fair values. Fair value is estimated based on discounted future cash flows.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, due to lower expected cash flows, the Company performed a recoverability test and related quantitative impairment assessment for its finite‐lived intangible assets and other long‐lived assets. As a result, the Company recorded $13.5 of intangible and long-lived asset impairment in operating expenses.

Acquisition of certain identifiable definite-lived and indefinite-lived assets

In conjunction with an acquisition of a business, the Company records identifiable definite-lived and indefinite-lived intangible assets acquired at their respective fair values as of the date of acquisition. The estimates used in assessing the fair value for the assets acquired include projected future cash flows, associated discount rates used to calculate present value, asset life cycles, customer retention rates and royalty rates. The fair value calculated for indefinite-lived intangible assets such as certain trade names, in addition to intangible assets that are definite-lived such as customer relationships and other technology-based assets may change during the finalization of the purchase price allocation, due to the significant estimates used in determining their fair value. As a result, the Company may make adjustments to the provisional amounts recorded for certain items as part of the purchase price allocation subsequent to the acquisition, not to exceed one year after the acquisition date, until the purchase accounting allocation is finalized.

Stock-based compensation

The Company measures stock-based compensation for all stock-based awards, including stock options and restricted stock units (“RSUs”), based on their estimated fair values on the date of the grant and recognizes the stock-based compensation cost for time-vested awards on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. For performance-based RSUs, the number of shares ultimately expected to vest is estimated at each reporting date based on management’s expectations regarding the relevant performance criteria. To the extent shares are expected to vest, the stock-based compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. Stock-based compensation was $14.3 million, $9.6 million and $16.5 million for the fiscal years ended January 2, 2026, January 3, 2025 and December 29, 2023, respectively. Refer to Note 13. Stockholders’ Equity for further details. The Company does not estimate forfeitures in recognizing stock-based compensation expense.

The determination of the grant date fair value of options using an option-pricing model is affected by our common stock fair value as well as assumptions including our expected stock price volatility over the expected term of the options, stock option exercise and cancellation behaviors, risk-free interest rates and expected dividends.

53

Table of Contents

Stock-based compensation expenses are classified in the statements of operations based on the department to which the related employee reports. Our stock-based awards subsequent to our IPO have been comprised principally of RSU awards.

Revenue recognition

Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer. The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control over a product to a customer, generally at the time of shipment. Contracts are generally in the form of purchase orders and are governed by standard terms and conditions. For larger OEMs, dealers and retailers, the Company may also enter into master agreements. Revenues generated from upfit packages generally do not include the vehicle chassis, as the Company is not the principal in this arrangement and the automotive dealer purchases the chassis directly from the OEM. The Company is required to place a deposit on all Stellantis chassis, which we record as a prepaid asset, however that deposit is refunded when the chassis is sold through to the end customer. For other chassis, the Company entered into floorplan financing agreements, in which the Company pays interest expense based on the duration of time the chassis stay on the Company's premises. Revenues generated from upfit packages from our Outside Van and Upfit UTV generally include the vehicle chassis, of which the Company has the risks and rewards of ownership.

We elected as a practical expedient to not capitalize the incremental costs to obtain contracts with customers because the amortization period would have been one year or less.

Provisions for discounts, rebates, sales incentives, returns, and other adjustments are generally provided for in the period the related sales are recorded, based on management’s assessment of historical trends and projection of future results. Accrued sales rebates were $7.0 million, $7.9 million, and $11.9 million as of January 2, 2026, January 3, 2025, and December 29, 2023, respectively. Sales returns allowances have historically been immaterial to the financial statements.

Allowance for credit losses

We record an allowance for credit losses deemed not collectible using the aging method. The allowance is based on how long a receivable has been outstanding, taking into account the historical credit loss rate and adjusting for both current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions that may impact collectability. Our methodology reflects the expected credit loss model, which does not solely rely on past events or incurred losses but also considers forward-looking information to estimate potential credit deterioration. If circumstances change, such as higher-than-expected defaults or an unexpected material adverse change in a major customer’s ability to meet its financial obligations, we reassess our estimates and determine whether the recoverability of the amounts due could be reduced by a material amount.

Fair value measurement and financial instruments

Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, requires the valuation of assets and liabilities required or permitted to be either recorded or disclosed at fair value based on hierarchy of available inputs as follows:

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

Level 2: Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and

Level 3: Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity).

We apply fair value accounting for all financial assets and liabilities and non-financial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. We define fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between reasonable market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities, which are required to be recorded at fair value, we consider the principal or most advantageous market in which we would transact and the market-based risk measurements or assumptions that reasonable market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, such as risks inherent in valuation techniques, transfer restrictions and credit risk.

As of January 2, 2026, the carrying amount of the principal under the Company’s Credit Agreement - Incremental Term Loans and Revolver approximated fair value because they had variable interest rates that reflected market changes in interest rates and changes in the Company’s net leverage ratio.

54

Table of Contents

The Company mitigates the cash flow risk associated with changes in interest rates on its variable rate debt through interest rate swap agreements. Refer to Note 11. Derivatives and Hedging for additional details of the agreements. In accordance with ASC 815, interest rate swap contracts are recognized as assets or liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets and are measured at fair values. The fair values were estimated based on expected cash flows over the life of the swaps. These expected cash flows were determined using a pricing model that incorporated reasonable assumptions and available market data.

The Company invests in marketable securities to mitigate the risk associated with the investment return on the non-qualified deferred compensation plan provided to executives and non-employee directors. The investments are recorded as cash and cash equivalents at their quoted market price.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest rate sensitivity

We are exposed to market risk in the normal course of our business operations due to our ongoing investing and financing activities. The risk of loss can be assessed from the perspective of adverse changes in fair values, cash flows and future earnings. We established policies and procedures governing our management of market risks and the use of financial instruments to manage exposure to such risks. As of January 2, 2026, we had $680.8 million of interest-bearing indebtedness outstanding under our Amended Credit Agreement. Based on the $180.8 million of variable interest rate indebtedness that was outstanding as of January 2, 2026, after giving effect to our interest rate swaps, a hypothetical 100 basis point increase or decrease in the interest rate would have resulted in an approximately $1.8 million increase or decrease in interest expense for the year ended January 2, 2026. As of January 2, 2026, our supplier-financed chassis on hand through the floor plan arrangements were $20.7 million. A hypothetical 100 basis point increase or decrease in the interest rate would have resulted in an approximately $0.2 million increase or decrease in interest expense for the year ended January 2, 2026.

Exchange rate sensitivity

As of January 2, 2026, we are exposed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. While historically this exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates has not had a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations, foreign currency fluctuations could have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations in the future. Historically, our primary exposure has been related to transactions denominated in the Euro, New Taiwanese Dollar, and Canadian Dollar. The majority of our sales, both domestically and internationally, are denominated in U.S. Dollars. Historically, the majority of our expenses have also been in U.S. Dollars, and we have been somewhat insulated from currency fluctuations. However, we may be exposed to greater exchange rate sensitivity in the future. At times, we enter into short-term foreign currency swap contracts to mitigate our foreign currency exposure; however, we may consider strategies to mitigate our foreign currency exposure further in the future if deemed necessary.

Credit and other risks

We are exposed to credit risk associated with cash and cash equivalents, interest rate swap agreements and trade receivables. As of January 2, 2026, the majority of our cash and cash equivalents consisted of cash balances in non-interest bearing checking accounts which significantly exceed the insurance coverage provided on such deposits. We do not believe that our cash equivalents and interest rate swap agreements present significant credit risks because the counterparties to the instruments consist of major financial institutions. Substantially all trade receivable balances of our businesses are unsecured. The credit risk with respect to trade receivables is concentrated by the number of significant customers that we have in our customer base and a prolonged economic downturn could increase our exposure to credit risk on our trade receivables. To manage our exposure to such risks, we perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers and maintain an allowance for potential credit losses.

We do not currently hedge our exposure to increases in the prices for our primary raw materials.

We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management, under the direction and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of January 2, 2026. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of January 2, 2026, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

A report of independent registered public accounting firm is contained in Part IV. Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rules 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act that occurred during the quarter ended January 2, 2026 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, believes that our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and are effective at the reasonable assurance level. However, our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include, but are not limited to, the realities that judgments in decision making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The management of Fox is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Fox’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurances regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements issued for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Under the supervision of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, Fox conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect all misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In making its assessment of internal control over financial reporting, management used criteria issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013). Based on the evaluation, our management concluded that its internal control over financial reporting was effective as of January 2, 2026.

Grant Thornton LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm that audited the Company’s consolidated financial statements, issued an attestation report on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, which is included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Board of Directors and Stockholders

Fox Factory Holding Corp.

Opinion on the financial statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Fox Factory Holding Corp. (a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of January 2, 2026 and January 3, 2025, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive (loss) income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended January 2, 2026, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of January 2, 2026 and January 3, 2025, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended January 2, 2026, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of January 2, 2026, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”), and our report dated February 26, 2026 expressed an unqualified opinion.

Basis for opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical audit matters

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

Net realizable value of inventory

As described further in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, adjustments to reduce the cost of inventory to its net realizable value are made, if required, for estimated excess, obsolescence or impaired balances. We identified the net realizable value of inventory for certain product categories as a critical audit matter.

The principal consideration for our determination that the net realizable value of inventory represents a critical audit matter is that the assessment of the net realizable value of inventory is complex and includes an estimate of forecasted demand. The demand estimate is subjective and requires the Company to consider significant assumptions such as economic conditions, technology changes, and new product introductions, which are subject to significant uncertainty and therefore require significant auditor judgment.

65

Table of Contents

Our audit procedures related to the net realizable value of inventory included the following, among others:

•We tested selected inventory items and evaluated the appropriateness of judgments and assumptions by reviewing industry reports and inquiring with various staff members outside of the finance function to understand macroeconomic, technology, and product trends.

•We performed a retrospective review by comparing previous demand forecasts to actual usage during the year for a sample of items.

•We compared estimated demand for selected inventory items to actual customer sales orders and forecasted demand information as provided by the sales and operations team in order to test the accuracy of demand information included in the calculation.

•We tested the design and operating effectiveness of controls related to the forecasted demand for the Company’s products as well as management’s review of the net realizable value of inventory.

Realizability of foreign tax credits

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are provided when necessary to reduce net deferred tax assets to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized. We identified the realizability of deferred tax assets relating to the Company’s foreign tax credits as a critical audit matter.

The principal considerations for our determination that the realizability of deferred tax assets relating to the Company’s foreign tax credits represents a critical audit matter are the significance of the Company’s foreign tax credits and the use of forecasted profitability by jurisdiction and source. The forecasts, including future sales and expenses by jurisdiction, are subject to a high level of estimation uncertainty and subjectivity. Additionally, realizability depends on continued implementation of a tax planning strategy. As a result, significant auditor judgment is necessary to evaluate management’s judgments and assumptions.

Our audit procedures related to the realizability of deferred tax assets relating to the Company’s foreign tax credits included the following, among others:

•We evaluated management’s assessment of its intent and ability to implement planned operating model changes that are expected to significantly reduce the generation of future foreign tax credits.

•We evaluated management’s assertions regarding anticipated reductions in withholding taxes on intercompany charges in selected jurisdictions, including assessing the consistency and credibility of those assertions with available evidence.

•We assessed the reasonableness of management’s assumptions related to future foreign-source taxable income by reviewing underlying forecasts, historical results, industry data, and evaluating the internal consistency of the projections.

•We tested the design and operating effectiveness of controls related over management’s assessment of the realizability of deferred tax assets related to foreign tax credits.

Goodwill impairment assessments

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company recorded a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $557 million for the year ended January 2, 2026 resulting from two triggering events identified during the year. The Company performs a qualitative assessment to determine if it is more likely than not that the fair value of the given reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the Company determines that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, it will perform a quantitative analysis; otherwise, no further evaluation is necessary. We identified these goodwill impairment assessments as a critical audit matter.

The principal consideration for our determination that the goodwill impairment assessments are a critical audit matter is that the assessments required significant judgment, including the estimation of future cash flows, the determination of appropriate discount rates, and the assessment of market and operating conditions as of each testing date. During the year, economic and company-specific conditions changed, which required management to reassess key assumptions and judgments and update projections. Auditing management’s goodwill impairment assessments involved challenging and subjective auditor judgment due to the sensitivity of certain assumptions within the valuation models.

66

Table of Contents

Our audit procedures related to the goodwill impairment assessments of the reporting units included the following, among others:

•We tested management's process for determining the fair value and carrying value of the reporting units. We also evaluated the reasonableness of management's significant assumptions, including forecasts. We evaluated whether these forecasts were reasonable.

•With assistance of valuation specialists, we evaluated the appropriateness of the valuation methods and tested the Company's income approach and market approach for the reporting units, including the reasonableness of the key underlying assumptions.

•We evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of internal controls related to the goodwill impairment assessments, including internal controls over determination of the fair values of the reporting units and the identification of triggering events.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Board of Directors and Stockholders

Fox Factory Holding Corp.

Opinion on internal control over financial reporting

We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Fox Factory Holding Corp. (a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of January 2, 2026, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of January 2, 2026, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by COSO.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended January 2, 2026, and our report dated February 26, 2026 expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.

Basis for opinion

The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Definition and limitations of internal control over financial reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

1. Description of the Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Fox Factory Holding Corp. (the “Company”) designs, engineers, manufactures and markets performance-defining products and systems for customers worldwide. Our premium brand, performance-defining products and systems are used primarily on bicycles (“bikes”), side-by-side vehicles (“side-by-sides”), on-road vehicles with and without off-road capabilities, off-road vehicles and trucks, all-terrain vehicles (“ATVs”), snowmobiles, and specialty vehicles and applications. In addition, we also offer premium baseball and softball gear and equipment. Some of our products are specifically designed and marketed to some of the leading cycling and powered vehicle original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”), while others are distributed to consumers through a global network of dealers and distributors and retailers.

Throughout this Annual Report on Form 10-K, unless stated otherwise or as the context otherwise requires, the “Company,” “FOX,” “Fox Factory,” “we,” “us,” “our,” and “ours” refer to Fox Factory Holding Corp. and its operating subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.

Basis of Presentation - The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States of America (“U.S.”) generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).

Fiscal Year Calendar - The Company operates using a 52-53-week fiscal year calendar ending on the Friday nearest to December 31. Therefore, the financial results of certain fiscal years and quarters, which will contain 53 and 14 weeks, respectively, will not be exactly comparable to the prior and subsequent fiscal years and quarters, which contain 52 and 13 weeks, respectively. For the fiscal years 2025, 2024, and 2023, the Company’s fiscal year ended on January 2, 2026, January 3, 2025, and December 29, 2023 and had 52, 53, and 52 weeks, respectively.

Principles of Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates - The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements; therefore, actual results could differ from management’s estimates.

Foreign Currency Translation and Transaction - The functional currency of the Company’s non-U.S. entities is the local currency of the respective operations. The Company translates the financial statements of its non-U.S. entities into U.S. Dollars each reporting period for purposes of consolidation. Assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are translated at the period-end currency exchange rates while sales and expenses are translated at the average currency exchange rates in effect for the period. The effects of these translation adjustments are a component of other comprehensive income.

Foreign currency transaction gain of $2,001, and losses of $1,811, and $1,465 for the years ended January 2, 2026, January 3, 2025, and December 29, 2023, respectively, are included as a component of other income or expense.

Cash and Cash Equivalents - Cash consists of cash maintained in checking or money market accounts. All highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity date of 90 days or less at the date of purchase are considered to be cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable -Accounts receivable are unsecured customer obligations which generally require payment within various terms from the invoice date. The receivables are stated at the invoice amount. Financing terms vary by customer. Invoices are considered past due when payment is not received within the terms stated within the contract. Payments of accounts receivable are applied to the specific invoices identified on the customer’s remittance advice or if unspecified, generally to the earliest unpaid invoices.

The carrying amount of accounts receivable is reduced by an allowance for credit losses that reflects management’s best estimate of amounts that may not be collected. All accounts or portions thereof deemed to be uncollectible or that may require an excessive collection cost are written off to the allowance for credit losses. The Company records the allowance for credit losses using the aging method, considering the length of time a receivable has been outstanding. This assessment incorporates historical credit loss rates, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions that may impact collectability. Our methodology follows the expected credit loss model, which not only accounts for past events and incurred losses but also integrates forward-looking information to estimate potential credit deterioration. If circumstances change, such as higher-than-expected defaults or an unexpected material adverse change in a major customer’s financial condition, we reassess our estimates to determine whether the recoverability of amounts due could be materially impacted.

The following table presents the activity in the allowance for credit losses:

For the fiscal years ended

Less: write-offs, net of recoveries (336) (223) (192)

Concentration of Credit Risk - Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of cash and accounts receivable. As of January 2, 2026 the Company held $49,063 in cash at U.S. subsidiaries and $8,946 at subsidiaries outside the U.S. The account balances may significantly exceed the insurance coverage provided on such deposits.

Filing HTML rendered to line-structured narrative text by the shipped reducer (datafeeds.edgar_fulltext.visible_text, keep_table_headers=True): scripts and inline-XBRL headers are dropped, and table content is reduced to its short label cells — numeric table data is not rendered and is therefore not counted. The same rendering is used for every year, so a year-over-year comparison is like for like.

The text is our rendering of the filing, not a facsimile: original pagination, typography and tables are not reproduced, and the numbers live in the financial statements (FA).

The outline locates item HEADINGS in this document. Only Items 1A and 7 have certified boundaries elsewhere in the terminal (the redline and the narrative-overlap number); every span here runs from one heading found to the next heading found.

How the outline was chosen. It is the longest chain of item headings that runs forward through both the document and the standard item order: 23 headings are on that chain and 17 further heading-shaped lines are not — the table-of-contents echo of every item, cross-references and exhibit-list mentions. Each entry's length is measured from its heading to the next heading on the chain.
