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

Unless otherwise indicated, all Dollar and Euro amounts are presented in thousands except per share data.

Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in Item 8 of this Report.

The discussion below is a comparison of the results of operations and changes in financial condition for the fiscal years ended July 31, 2023 and 2022. The comparison of, and changes between, the fiscal years ended July 31, 2022 and 2021 can be found within "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2022, as filed with the SEC on September 28, 2022.

Executive Summary

We were founded in 1980 and have grown to become the largest manufacturer of recreational vehicles (“RVs”) in the world based on units sold and revenue. We are also the largest manufacturer of RVs in North America, and one of the largest manufacturers of RVs in Europe. In North America, according to Stat Surveys, for the six months ended June 30, 2023, THOR’s current combined U.S. and Canadian market share based on units was approximately 42.7% for travel trailers and fifth wheels combined and approximately 49.0% for motorhomes. In Europe, according to the European Caravan Federation (“ECF”), EHG’s current market share for the six months ended June 30, 2023 based on units was approximately 20.6% for motorcaravans and campervans combined and approximately 18.5% for caravans.

Our business model includes decentralized operating units, and our RV products are primarily sold to independent, non-franchise dealers who, in turn, retail those products. Our growth has been achieved both organically and through acquisition, and our strategy is designed to increase our profitability by driving innovation, servicing our customers, manufacturing quality products, improving the efficiencies of our facilities and making strategic growth acquisitions.

We generally do not finance dealers directly, but we do provide repurchase agreements to the dealers’ floor plan lenders.

We generally have financed our growth through a combination of internally generated cash flows from operations and, when needed, outside credit facilities. Capital acquisitions of $208,908 in fiscal 2023 were made primarily for purchases of land, production building additions and improvements and replacing machinery and equipment used in the ordinary course of business. See Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for capital acquisitions by segment. Ongoing supply chain constraints, particularly chassis constraints within our European operations, have and could continue to impact our business and our consolidated financial results and financial position. In addition, the impact of recent inflation on consumer confidence, which historically has been highly correlated with RV retail sales, and the impact of inflation on the availability of discretionary funds of our end consumers, combined with significantly higher interest rates compared to recent years impacting both our independent dealers and the end consumer, had a negative impact on demand for our products at both the wholesale and retail levels during fiscal 2023 and are expected to continue to impact the remainder of calendar year 2023. These risks to our business are more fully described in Part 1, Item 1A "Risk Factors" of this Report.

Significant Events

Fiscal 2023

Roadpass Digital

Effective December 30, 2022, the Company entered into a Subscription and Contribution Agreement with TechNexus Holdings LLC (“TechNexus”), whereby the Company transferred TH2Connect, LLC d/b/a Roadpass Digital (“Roadpass Digital”) and its associated legal entities to TN-RP Holdings, LLC (“TN-RP”), a new legal entity formed by TechNexus, in a non-cash transaction following which the Company and TechNexus own 100% of the Class A-RP units and Class C-RP units, respectively, issued by TN-RP. The Company also simultaneously entered into an Operating Agreement with TechNexus related to TN-RP whereby TechNexus will manage the day-to-day operations of TN-RP subject to certain protective rights maintained by the Company. The rights and privileges of the Company and TechNexus as unit holders of TN-RP are governed by the terms of the Operating Agreement, which includes provisions for distributions during its existence and at dissolution.

Inflation Reduction Act of 2022

The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 was enacted in August 2022. Among other provisions, this statute provides for a 1% tax to be imposed on the fair market value of shares repurchased by issuers whose shares are traded on an established securities market, subject to certain exceptions. The tax applies to repurchases made after December 31, 2022, and the excise tax on repurchases is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.

Fiscal 2022

Share Repurchase Program

On December 21, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized Company management to utilize up to $250,000 to repurchase shares of the Company’s common stock through December 21, 2024. On June 24, 2022, the Board authorized Company management to utilize up to an additional $448,321 to repurchase shares of the Company’s common stock through July 31, 2025.

Under these two share repurchase authorizations, the Company is authorized to repurchase, on a discretionary basis and from time-to-time, outstanding shares of its common stock in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or by other means.

During the three months ended July 31, 2023, the Company did not purchase any shares of its common stock. During fiscal 2023, the Company purchased 549,532 shares of its common stock, at various times in the open market, at a weighted-average price of $76.44 and held them as treasury shares at an aggregate purchase price of $42,007, all from the December 21, 2021 authorization.

As of July 31, 2023, the remaining amount of the Company's common stock that may be repurchased under the December 21, 2021 $250,000 authorization expiring on December 21, 2024 is $42,886. As of July 31, 2023, the remaining amount of the Company’s common stock that may be repurchased under the June 24, 2022 authorization expiring on July 31, 2025 is $448,321. As of July 31, 2023, the total remaining amount of the Company’s common stock that may be repurchased under these two authorizations is $491,207.

Issuance of Senior Unsecured Notes

On October 14, 2021, the Company issued an aggregate principal amount of $500,000 of 4.000% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2029 (“Senior Unsecured Notes”). The Senior Unsecured Notes will mature on October 15, 2029 unless redeemed or repurchased earlier. Net proceeds from the Senior Unsecured Notes, along with cash-on-hand, were used to repay $500,000 of borrowings outstanding on the Company’s ABL and for certain transaction costs. Interest on the Senior Unsecured Notes is payable in semi-annual installments on April 15 and October 15 of each year, and the first semi-annual payment was made April 14, 2022. The Senior Unsecured Notes rank equally in right of payment with all of the Company’s existing and any future senior indebtedness and senior to the Company’s future subordinated indebtedness, if any, and effectively junior in right of payment to the Company’s existing and any future secured indebtedness to the extent of the assets securing such indebtedness.

Airxcel Acquisition

On September 1, 2021, the Company acquired Wichita, Kansas-based AirX Intermediate, Inc. (“Airxcel”). Airxcel manufactures a comprehensive line of high-quality component products which are sold primarily to RV original equipment manufacturers as well as consumers via aftermarket sales through dealers and retailers. Airxcel provides industry-leading products in recreational vehicle heating, cooling, ventilation, cooking, window coverings, sidewalls and roofing materials, among others. The total cash consideration paid was subject to the final determination of the actual acquired net working capital as of the close of business on September 1, 2021, which was finalized in the second quarter of fiscal 2022. The final cash consideration was $745,279, net of cash acquired. In conjunction with the Airxcel acquisition, the Company expanded its existing ABL facility from $750,000 to $1,000,000, favorably amended certain terms of the agreement and extended the term of the ABL.

Fiscal 2021

Tiffin Group Acquisition

On December 18, 2020, the Company closed on an agreement for the acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of luxury motorized recreational vehicle manufacturer Tiffin Motorhomes, Inc. and certain other associated operating and supply companies (collectively, the “Tiffin Group”). Tiffin Motorhomes, Inc. operates out of various locations in Alabama and Mississippi.

The cash consideration for the acquisition of the Tiffin Group was $288,238, net of cash acquired, and was funded through existing cash-on-hand as well as $165,000 in borrowings from the Company’s existing asset-based credit facility.

North American RV Industry

The Company monitors industry conditions in the North American RV market using a number of resources including its own performance tracking and modeling. The Company also considers monthly wholesale shipment data as reported by the RVIA, which is typically issued on a one-month lag and represents manufacturers’ North American RV production and delivery to dealers. In addition, we monitor monthly North American retail sales trends as reported by Stat Surveys, whose data is typically issued on a month-and-a-half lag. The Company believes that monthly RV retail sales data is important as consumer purchases impact future dealer orders and ultimately our production and net sales.

North American RV independent dealer inventory of our North American RV products as of July 31, 2023 decreased 31.1% to approximately 87,500 units from approximately 127,000 units as of July 31, 2022. North American RV independent dealer inventory of our North American RV products as of July 31, 2021 totaled approximately 58,300 units. The July 31, 2021 totals were at historic lows given the surge in demand at that time, especially for towable products. During fiscal 2022, dealers restocked their depleted stocking levels significantly, particularly towable unit levels, as consumer demand continued to be strong and interest and carrying costs remained relatively low compared to historical norms. During fiscal 2023, particularly in the second half of fiscal 2023, retail sales began to slow, and carrying costs for dealers increased significantly due to inflationary cost increases and the rapid increase in interest rates during that period. These factors, among others, combined to cause dealers to reduce the number of units they carried as of July 31, 2023.

As of July 31, 2023, we believe North American dealer inventory levels for most towable products are generally higher than the levels that dealers are comfortable stocking given the current retail sales levels and associated carrying costs. We believe dealer inventory levels for motorized product lines are generally more closely aligned to dealers’ desired stocking levels as of the end of July 2023, although carrying costs, chassis availability and retail sales activity have been factors considered as the dealers determine their stocking levels. We believe dealers will continue to closely evaluate the unit stocking levels that they will elect to carry in future periods, which may be less than historical unit stocking levels, due to a combination of factors such as retail activity, RV wholesale prices as well as interest rates and other carrying costs.

THOR’s total North American RV backlog as of July 31, 2023 decreased $4,008,655, or 66.7%, to $1,998,983 from $6,007,638 as of July 31, 2022. The decrease in backlog is primarily a result of a reduction in recent orders from dealers due to lower retail sales and concerns over current interest costs and other carrying costs compared to the prior period.

North American Industry Wholesale Statistics

Key wholesale statistics for the North American RV industry, as reported by RVIA for the periods indicated, are as follows:

U.S. and Canada Wholesale Unit Shipments

Six Months Ended June 30, Increase %

In August 2023, RVIA reconfirmed its forecast for calendar year 2023 North American wholesale unit shipments. Under a most likely scenario, towable and motorized unit shipments are projected to decrease to approximately 249,300 and 47,800, respectively, for an annual total of approximately 297,100 units, down 39.8% from the 2022 calendar year wholesale shipments. The RVIA most likely forecast for calendar year 2023 could range from a lower estimate of approximately 287,200 total units to an upper estimate of approximately 307,000 units.

As part of their August 2023 forecast, RVIA also released their initial estimates for calendar year 2024 wholesale unit shipments. In the most likely scenario, towable and motorized unit shipments are projected to increase to an approximated annual total of 369,700 units, or 24.4% higher than the most likely scenario for calendar year 2023 wholesale shipments. This calendar year 2024 most likely forecast could range from a lower estimate of approximately 363,700 total units to an upper estimate of approximately 375,700 units. RVIA stated the reasons for the calendar year 2024 wholesale unit shipment recovery is due to the anticipated effects of rising interest rates subsiding and the current inventory imbalance resolving over the second half of calendar 2023.

North American Industry Retail Statistics

We believe that retail demand is the key to growth in the North American RV industry, and that annual North American RV industry wholesale shipments will return to typical seasonal patterns as dealer inventory levels and consumer demand become more balanced.

Key retail statistics for the North American RV industry, as reported by Stat Surveys for the periods indicated, are as follows:

Six Months Ended June 30, Increase %

Note: Data reported by Stat Surveys is based on official state and provincial records. This information is subject to adjustment, is continuously updated and is often impacted by delays in reporting by various states or provinces.

We believe that North American retail consumer demand has grown in recent years due to an increasing interest in the RV lifestyle and the ability to connect with nature, and further accelerated since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly in calendar 2021, which resulted in record retail sales during that period. While we anticipate that near-term demand will be influenced by many factors, including consumer confidence and the level of consumer spending on discretionary products, we believe future retail demand over the longer term will exceed historical, pre-pandemic levels as consumers continue to value the perceived benefits offered by the RV lifestyle, which provides people with a personal space to maintain social distance in a safe manner, the ability to connect with loved ones and the potential to get away for short, frequent breaks or longer adventures.

North American Outlook

Historically, RV industry sales have been impacted by a number of economic conditions faced by our independent dealers, and ultimately retail consumers, such as the rate of unemployment, the rate of inflation, the level of consumer confidence, the disposable income of consumers, interest rates, credit availability, the health of the housing market, tax rates and fuel availability and prices. We believe these factors will continue to affect retail sales in fiscal 2024. In addition, due to inflationary pressures, higher interest rates and other factors, we believe that in fiscal 2024 our independent dealers will be continuously reevaluating their desired stocking levels, which may result in lower than historical dealer inventory stocking levels on a unit basis. It is difficult to predict the extent to which any or all of these factors will impact the RV industry or our business in a particular future period, however, we currently believe the early portion of fiscal 2024 will continue to be negatively impacted by these factors, especially when compared to our strong fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021 results.

Despite the near-term challenges, we remain optimistic about future growth in North American retail sales in the long term, as there are many factors driving product demand. Surveys conducted by THOR, RVIA and others show that Americans of all generations love the freedom of the outdoors and the enrichment that comes with living an active lifestyle. RVs allow people to be in control of their travel experiences, going where they want, when they want and with the people they want. The RV units we design, produce and sell allow people to spend time outdoors pursuing their favorite activities, creating cherished moments and deeply connecting with family and friends. Based on the increasing value consumers place on these factors, we expect to see long-term growth in the North American RV industry. The recent multi-year growth in industry-wide RV sales has also resulted in exposing a wider range of consumers to the RV lifestyle. We believe many of those who have been recently exposed to the industry for the first time will become future owners, and that those who became first-time owners since the COVID-19 pandemic will become long-term RVers, resulting in future repeat and upgrade sales opportunities. We also believe consumers are likely to continue altering their future vacation and travel plans, opting for fewer vacations via air travel, cruise ships and hotels, and preferring vacations that RVs are uniquely positioned to provide, allowing consumers the ability to explore or unwind, often close to home. In addition, we believe that the availability of camping and RV parking facilities will be an important factor in the future growth of the industry and view both the significant recent investments and the future committed investments by campground owners, states and the federal government in camping facilities and accessibility to state and federal parks and forests to be positive long-term factors.

Economic and industry-wide factors that have historically affected, and which we believe will continue to affect, our operating results include the costs of commodities, the availability of critical supply components and labor costs incurred in the production of our products. Material and labor costs are the primary factors determining our cost of products sold, and any future increases in raw material or labor costs will impact our profit margins negatively if we are unable to offset those cost increases through a combination of product recontenting, material sourcing strategies, efficiency improvements or raising the selling prices for our products by corresponding amounts. Historically, we have generally been able to offset net cost increases over time.

While we have recently seen improvement in the supply of chassis from North American suppliers from some, but not all, chassis suppliers, we do not believe the chassis supply chain is fully back to pre-pandemic levels. Currently it is uncertain as what impact the current labor disputes and work stoppages involving certain U.S. automakers, who also supply chassis to us, will have on the future availability of chassis. Even beyond these issues, it is extremely difficult to predict when or whether future supply chain issues related to chassis will arise. Modifying available chassis for certain motorized products to use for other products is not a viable alternative, particularly in the short term, due to engineering requirements. These factors may continue to negatively impact our production schedule and cost structure as we try to balance our production and personnel staffing levels and schedules to the available chassis, often with short notice. The North American recreational vehicle industry has, from time to time in the past, experienced shortages of chassis for various reasons, including component shortages, production delays or other production issues and work stoppages at the chassis manufacturers.

While the North American RV industry has at times faced supply shortages or delivery delays of other, non-chassis, raw material components, our supply chain has been resilient enough to support our fiscal 2023 demand. If shortages of chassis or other component parts were to become more significant, or if other factors were to impact our suppliers' ability to fully supply our needs for key components, our costs of such components and our production output could be adversely affected. Where possible, we continue to work closely with our suppliers on various supply chain strategies to minimize any constraints, and we will continue to identify alternative suppliers where possible.

European RV Industry

The Company monitors retail trends in the European RV market as reported by the European Caravan Federation (“ECF”), whose industry data is reported to the public quarterly and typically issued on a one-to-two-month lag. Additionally, the Company receives monthly OEM-specific reports from most of the individual member countries that make up the ECF. As these reports are coming directly from the ECF member countries, timing and content vary, but typically the reports are issued on a one-to-two-month lag as well. While most countries provide OEM-specific information, the United Kingdom, which made up 17.5% and 7.8% of the caravan and motorcaravan (including campervans) European market for the six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, does not provide OEM-specific information. Industry wholesale shipment data for the European RV market is not available.

Within Europe, over 90% of our sales are made to dealers within 10 different European countries. The market conditions, as well as the operating status of our independent dealers within each country, vary based on the various local economic and other conditions. It is inherently difficult to generalize about the operating conditions within the entire European region. However, independent RV dealer inventory levels of our European products are generally below historic levels in the various countries we serve. Within Germany, which accounts for approximately 60% of our European product sales, independent dealer inventory levels are currently below historical norms.

Independent dealer inventory of our European RV products as of July 31, 2023 was approximately 21,200 units. Comparable independent dealer inventory unit information was not available as of July 31, 2022. During fiscal 2023 European dealer inventory levels have grown from a period of low levels. Caravan and urban vehicle product lines are no longer considered below target stocking levels, but motorcaravans are still slightly below normal.

Our European Recreational Vehicle backlog as of July 31, 2023 increased $796,058, or 28.9%, to $3,549,660 compared to $2,753,602 as of July 31, 2022, primarily due to increased selling prices.

European Outlook

Our European operations offer a full lineup of leisure vehicles including caravans and motorized products including urban vehicles, campervans and small-to-large motorcaravans. Our product offerings are not limited to vehicles only but also include accessories and services, including vehicle rentals. We address European retail customers through a sophisticated brand management approach based on consumer segmentation according to target group, core values and emotions. With the help of data-based and digital marketing, we intend to continue expanding our retail customer reach to new and younger consumer segments.

The impact of current macroeconomic factors on our business, including increasing inflation and interest rates, supply chain constraints, environmental and sustainability regulations and geopolitical events, is uncertain. In addition, the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may impact our business in future periods remains uncertain and unpredictable. Our outlook for future growth in European RV retail sales depends upon the various economic and regulatory conditions in the respective countries in which we sell our products, and on our ability to manage through supply chain issues that have, and will continue to, limit the level to which we can increase output of our motorized products in the near term. End-customer demand for RVs depends strongly on consumer confidence. Factors such as the rate of unemployment, the rate of inflation, private consumption and investments, growth in disposable income of consumers, changes in interest rates, the health of the housing market, changes in tax rates and regulatory restrictions and, more recently, travel safety considerations all influence retail sales. Our long-term outlook for future growth in European RV retail sales remains positive as more people discover RVs as a way to support their lifestyle in search of independence and individuality, as well as using the RV as a multi-purpose vehicle to escape urban life and explore outdoor activities and nature.

Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, we and our independent European dealers marketed our European recreational vehicles through numerous RV fairs at the country and regional levels which occurred throughout the calendar year. These fairs have historically been well-attended events that allowed retail consumers the ability to see the newest products, features and designs and to talk with product experts in addition to being able to purchase or order an RV. Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, the protection of the health of our employees, customers and dealers has been our top priority. As a result, we cancelled our participation in most European trade fairs and major events in calendar 2021 and limited participation in early calendar 2022. We did, however, attend the Caravan Salon show in Dusseldorf in late August/early September 2022 and participated in other major fiscal 2023 retail shows. The 2023 Caravan Salon show in late August 2023 experienced near record attendance, demonstrating the high level of interest in the RV lifestyle despite the current macroeconomic uncertainties facing many consumers. In addition to our attendance at various strategic trade fairs going forward, we have and will continue to strengthen and expand our digital activities to reach high potential target groups, generate leads and steer customers directly to dealerships. With approximately 1,100 active independent dealers in Germany and throughout Europe that we do business with, we believe our European brands have one of the strongest and most professionally structured dealer and service networks in Europe.

Economic or industry-wide factors affecting our European RV operating results include the availability and costs of commodities and component parts and the labor used in the manufacture of our products. Material and labor costs are the primary factors determining our cost of products sold and any future increases in these costs will impact our profit margins negatively if we are unable to offset those cost increases through a combination of product recontenting, material sourcing strategies, efficiency improvements or raising the selling prices for our products by corresponding amounts.

We continue to receive communications from our European chassis suppliers that due to a number of factors, including (1) supply constraints of key components that they require for the manufacturing of chassis, such as semiconductor chips and engines, (2) demand outpacing their production capacity and (3) personnel shortages, their production of chassis could be negatively impacted. Throughout fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2023, we experienced delays in the receipt of, and significant reductions in the volume of, chassis from our European chassis suppliers, limiting our ability to further increase production of our motorized products. We expect these ongoing challenges to persist through calendar year 2023 and into calendar year 2024 and, in particular, anticipate both continued delays in receipt of chassis in Europe and disruptions in the sequence of delivery of chassis. These chassis supply factors will inhibit our ability to consistently maintain our planned production levels and will limit our ability to ramp up production and sales of certain products despite dealer demand for those products. Uncertainties related to changing emission standards may also impact the availability of chassis used in our production of certain European motorized RVs and could also impact consumer buying patterns.

In Europe, we also continue to experience cost increases, supply shortages and delivery delays of other, non-chassis, raw material components which negatively impacted our ability to further ramp up production and sales in fiscal 2023, and which resulted in the continuation of an elevated level of work in process inventory on hand. We believe these shortages and delays will continue to result in production delays or adjusted production rates in the near term, which will limit our ability to ramp up production and sales to meet existing demand and will have a negative impact on our European operating results, as we balance our labor and overhead costs to rapidly changing production schedules.

Where possible, to minimize the future impact of these supply chain constraints, we have identified a second-source supplier base for certain component parts, however, the overall scope of supply chain constraints within Europe and the engineering requirements required with an alternate component part, particularly the chassis our various units are built upon, has limited the impact of these alternative suppliers on reducing our near-term supply constraints.

In addition to material supply constraints, labor shortages may also impact our European operations. Currently, we are experiencing a shortage of available skilled workers due to near full employment rates in the European countries where we have manufacturing sites.

CONSOLIDATED

Consolidated net sales for fiscal 2023 decreased $5,190,920, or 31.8%, compared to fiscal 2022. The decrease in consolidated net sales is primarily due to lower current dealer and consumer demand in comparison to record demand in fiscal 2022, primarily in the North American Towable segment. Approximately 27% of the Company's net sales for fiscal 2023 were transacted in a currency other than the U.S. dollar. The Company's most material exchange rate exposure is sales in Euros. The $5,190,920, or 31.8% decrease in consolidated net sales in fiscal 2023 includes a decrease of $116,142 from the change in currency exchange rates between the two periods. To determine this impact, net sales transacted in currencies other than U.S. dollars have been translated to U.S. dollars using the average exchange rates that were in effect during the comparative period.

Consolidated gross profit for fiscal 2023 decreased $1,209,677, or 43.1%, compared to fiscal 2022. Consolidated gross profit was 14.4% of consolidated net sales for fiscal 2023 and 17.2% for fiscal 2022. The decreases in consolidated gross profit and the consolidated gross profit percentage in fiscal 2023 compared to fiscal 2022 were both primarily due to the impact of the decrease in consolidated net sales, which resulted in less absorption of fixed costs.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for fiscal 2023 decreased $246,408, or 22.1%, compared to fiscal 2022, primarily due to the 31.8% decrease in consolidated net sales and a combined decrease in net costs related to certain warranty and settlement expenses as discussed in Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Selling, general and administrative expenses were 7.8% of consolidated net sales for fiscal 2023 and 6.8% for fiscal 2022, with the increase in percentage primarily due to the decrease in consolidated net sales in fiscal 2023 compared to fiscal 2022.

Amortization of intangible assets expense for fiscal 2023 decreased $16,138, or 10.3%, to $140,808, compared to fiscal 2022, primarily due to a reduction in dealer network amortization, which is amortized on an accelerated basis and therefore decreases over time.

The decrease of $960,511, or 65.8% in income before income taxes for fiscal 2023 compared to fiscal 2022, was primarily driven by the decrease in consolidated net sales and the decrease in the consolidated gross profit percentage noted above.

The overall annual effective income tax rate for fiscal 2023 was 25.1%, compared with 22.0% for fiscal 2022. The primary reason for the increase in the overall annual effective income tax rate relates to the jurisdictional mix of income before income taxes between foreign and domestic jurisdictions between fiscal 2023 and fiscal 2022.

Additional information concerning the changes in net sales, gross profit and selling, general and administrative expenses are addressed below in the segment reporting that follows.

The $26,406 decrease in Corporate expenses included in selling, general and administrative expenses for fiscal 2023 compared to fiscal 2022 primarily related to certain settlement expenses accrued in fiscal 2022 as discussed in Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements which did not recur in fiscal 2023. This decrease also includes a decrease in incentive compensation of $6,579 due to the decrease in income before income taxes compared to the prior-year period, and a decrease of $6,850 in accrued expenses related to our standby repurchase obligations due to a decrease in dealer inventory levels in the current-year period as compared to a large increase in dealer inventory levels in the prior-year period. Costs related to the actuarially determined product liability and workers compensation accruals held at the Corporate level also decreased $5,391. These decreases were partially offset by a stock-based compensation expense increase of $9,153, and deferred compensation increased $18,966 due to market fluctuations between the two periods.

Net expense for Corporate interest and other income and expenses increased $10,783 in fiscal 2023 compared to fiscal 2022, which includes an increase in net interest expense and fees of $7,882 on our debt primarily due to higher interest rates in fiscal 2023 compared to fiscal 2022. In addition, fiscal 2023 included operating losses of $10,436 related to our equity investment in Roadpass Digital as discussed in Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements and an unfavorable change of $10,895 in the fair value of certain other equity investments due to market fluctuations. These increases in net expense were partially offset by the favorable change of $19,350 in the fair value of the Company's deferred compensation plan assets due to market fluctuations between the two periods.

IMPACT OF CHANGE IN PRODUCT MIX AND PRICE ON NET SALES: %Change

North American Towable

Travel Trailers 5.0

Fifth Wheels (2.4)

Total North American Towable 3.9

The decrease in total North American Towable net sales of 51.5% compared to the prior fiscal year resulted from a 55.4% decrease in unit shipments and a 3.9% increase in the overall net price per unit due to the combined impact of changes in product mix and price, which included selling price increases to help offset higher material costs. The decrease in unit shipments is primarily due to a softening in current dealer and consumer demand in comparison with the heightened demand in the prior fiscal year, which included independent dealers significantly restocking their inventory unit stock levels. According to statistics published by RVIA, for the twelve months ended July 31, 2023, combined travel trailer and fifth wheel wholesale unit shipments decreased 51.0% compared to the same period last year. According to statistics published by Stat Surveys, for the twelve-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, our retail market share for travel trailers and fifth wheels combined was 42.4% and 41.8%, respectively.

The increase in the overall change in product mix and price per unit within the travel trailer product line of 5.0% during fiscal 2023 was primarily due to the impact of favorable product mix changes compared to fiscal 2022 and selling price increases, primarily to offset higher material costs, partially offset by increased sales discounts. The decrease in the overall change in product mix and price per unit within the fifth wheel product line of 2.4% during fiscal 2023 was primarily due to the impact of selling price increases to offset higher material costs being more than offset by elevated sales discounts.

North American Towable cost of products sold decreased $3,450,506 to $3,699,141, or 88.0% of North American Towable net sales, for fiscal 2023 compared to $7,149,647, or 82.5% of North American Towable net sales, for fiscal 2022. The changes in material, labor, freight-out and warranty costs comprised $3,338,749 of the $3,450,506 decrease in cost of products sold due to the decreased sales volume. Material, labor, freight-out and warranty costs as a combined percentage of North American Towable net sales increased to 80.2% for fiscal 2023 compared to 77.4% for fiscal 2022, primarily as a result of increased sales discounts, which effectively decreased net selling prices and correspondingly increased cost percentages. The combined material, labor, freight-out and warranty costs as a combined percentage of gross North American Towable net sales before the effects of discounting decreased, due to a decrease in the material cost percentage from the combined favorable impacts of product mix changes, net selling price increases, cost-saving initiatives and the North American Towable LIFO liquidation of $8,300 in fiscal 2023, partially offset by an increase in the warranty cost percentage.

Total manufacturing overhead decreased $111,757 due to the decrease in sales but increased as a percentage of North American Towable net sales from 5.1% to 7.8%, as the decreased net sales levels resulted in higher overhead costs per unit sold. Variable costs in manufacturing overhead decreased $115,302 in fiscal 2023 compared to fiscal 2022 as a result of the decrease in North American Towable net sales.

The decrease of $1,008,811 in North American Towable gross profit for fiscal 2023 compared to fiscal 2022 was driven by the decrease in net sales and the decrease in the gross profit percentage was due to the increase in the cost of products sold percentage noted above.

The decrease of $185,437 in North American Towable selling, general and administrative expenses for fiscal 2023 compared to fiscal 2022 includes the impact of the decrease in North American Towable net sales and income before income taxes, which caused related commissions, incentive and other compensation to decrease by $184,177. The increase in the overall selling, general and administrative expense as a percentage of North American Towable net sales was primarily due to the decrease in North American Towable net sales.

The decrease of $813,413 in North American Towable income before income taxes for fiscal 2023 compared to fiscal 2022 was primarily due to the decrease in North American Towable net sales, and the primary reason for the 6.5% decrease in percentage was the increase in the cost of products sold percentage noted above.

Total North American Motorized (0.2)

The decrease in total North American Motorized net sales of 16.7% compared to the prior fiscal year resulted from a 16.5% decrease in unit shipments due to softening dealer and consumer demand, and a 0.2% decrease in the overall net price per unit due to the combined impact of changes in product price and mix, which included net selling price increases to help offset higher material and other input costs. The 0.2% decrease in the overall change in product mix and price per unit, in spite of the increase in net price per unit within each product category, was due to the higher combined concentration of the more moderately-priced Class B and Class C units in the current fiscal year compared to the more expensive Class A units. According to statistics published by RVIA, for the twelve months ended July 31, 2023, combined motorhome wholesale unit shipments decreased 10.3% compared to the same period last year. According to statistics published by Stat Surveys, for the twelve-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, our retail market share for motorhomes was 48.1% and 48.5%, respectively.

The increase in the overall change in product mix and price per unit within the Class A product line of 1.8% during fiscal 2023 was primarily due to net selling price increases since the prior fiscal year to help offset material and other input cost increases, partially offset by a higher concentration of sales of the more moderately-priced gas Class A products in the current fiscal year. The increase in the overall change in product mix and price per unit within the Class C product line of 6.2% during fiscal 2023 was primarily due to net selling price increases since the prior fiscal year to offset higher material and other input costs as well as product mix changes. The increase in the overall change in product mix and price per unit within the Class B product line of 10.0% during fiscal 2023 was primarily due to net selling price increases since the prior fiscal year, and a higher concentration of sales of higher-priced Class B products in the current fiscal year.

North American Motorized cost of products sold decreased $454,140 to $2,871,455, or 86.6% of motorized net sales, for fiscal 2023 compared to $3,325,595, or 83.6% of motorized net sales, for fiscal 2022. The changes in material, labor, freight-out and warranty costs comprised $442,308 of the $454,140 decrease due to the decreased sales volume. Material, labor, freight-out and warranty costs as a combined percentage of motorized net sales was 80.9% for fiscal 2023 compared to 78.6% for fiscal 2022, with the increase primarily due to an increase in the material cost percentage, primarily due to chassis cost increases, and an increase in the warranty cost percentage.

Total manufacturing overhead decreased $11,832 but increased as a percentage of North American Motorized net sales from 5.0% to 5.7%, as the decrease in net sales levels resulted in slightly higher overhead costs per unit sold. Variable costs in manufacturing overhead decreased $13,709 in fiscal 2023 compared to fiscal 2022 as a result of the decrease in North American Motorized net sales.

The decrease of $211,337 in North American Motorized gross profit for fiscal 2023 compared to fiscal 2022 was driven by the decrease in net sales, while the decrease in the gross profit percentage was due to the increase in the cost of products sold percentage noted above.

The decrease of $31,104 in North American Motorized selling, general and administrative expenses in fiscal 2023 compared to fiscal 2022 was primarily due to the decreases in North American Motorized net sales and income before income taxes, which caused related commissions, incentive and other compensation to decrease by $39,581. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in professional fees and related settlement and RV repurchase costs of $6,112.

The decrease of $181,397 in North American Motorized income before income taxes for fiscal 2023 compared to fiscal 2022 was primarily due to the decrease in North American Motorized net sales, and the primary reason for the 3.3% decrease in North American Motorized income before income taxes percentage was the increase in the cost of products sold percentage noted above.

IMPACT OF CHANGES IN FOREIGN CURRENCY, PRODUCT MIX AND PRICE ON NET SALES:

Foreign Currency % Mix and Price % %Change

European

The increase in total European Recreational Vehicle net sales of 5.2% compared to the prior-year period resulted from a 7.5% decrease in unit shipments and a 12.7% increase in the overall net price per unit due to the total impact of changes in foreign currency, product mix and price. The increase in European Recreational Vehicle net sales of $149,694 includes a decrease of $116,142, or 4.0% of net sales, due to the decrease in foreign exchange rates in fiscal 2023 compared to fiscal 2022. Sales on a constant-currency basis increased by 9.2%.

The overall net price per unit increase of 12.7% includes a 4.0% decrease due to the impact of foreign currency exchange rate changes and a 16.7% increase due to the combined impact of product mix and selling price increases.

The constant-currency increases in the overall net price per unit within the Motorcaravan product line of 18.8% and the Campervan product line of 26.7% were primarily due to the impact of selling price increases and product mix changes. In addition, in fiscal 2023 the Campervan product line included a higher concentration of Campervan units with a purchased chassis that is included in the sales price as opposed to units with a customer-supplied chassis that is not included in the sales price. The increase in the overall net price per unit due to product mix and price within the Caravan product line of 13.3% was primarily due to the impact of selling price increases taken to offset increased input costs.

European Recreational Vehicle cost of products sold increased 54,337 to $2,531,803, or 83.4% of European Recreational Vehicle net sales, for fiscal 2023 compared to 2,477,466, or 85.8% of European Recreational Vehicle net sales, for fiscal 2022. The changes in material, labor, freight-out and warranty costs comprised $34,716 of the 54,337 increase. Material, labor, freight-out and warranty costs as a combined percentage of European Recreational Vehicle net sales decreased to 73.4% for fiscal 2023 compared to 76.0% for fiscal 2022, with the decrease primarily due to a decrease in the material cost percentage due to net selling price increases and product mix changes. The labor cost percentages also improved.

Total manufacturing overhead increased $19,621 and increased as a percentage of European Recreational Vehicle net sales from 9.8% to 10.0% primarily due to an increase in manufacturing overhead wages and benefits.

The increase of $95,357 in European Recreational Vehicle gross profit for fiscal 2023 compared to fiscal 2022 was due to the increase in European Recreational Vehicle net sales and the decrease in the cost of products sold percentage noted above.

The $6,315 increase in European Recreational Vehicle selling, general and administrative expenses for fiscal 2023 compared to fiscal 2022 was primarily due to the reduction in foreign exchange rates since the prior-year period, which mostly offset the increase in selling, general and administrative expenses on a constant-currency basis. The constant-currency increase was primarily due to increased advertising and promotion costs, as participation in most European trade fairs in the prior fiscal year was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic but resumed in the current fiscal year, and increased compensation and benefit costs.

The primary reason for the $92,509 increase in European Recreational Vehicle income before income taxes was the increase in European Recreational Vehicle net sales and the improvement in the cost of products sold percentage noted above. The increase in the net income before income taxes percentage to net sales was primarily due to the improvement in the cost of products sold percentage noted above. Amortization expense was also 0.6% lower as a percentage of sales in fiscal 2023 compared to fiscal 2022 due to lower dealer network amortization, which is amortized on an accelerated basis and therefore decreases over time.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of July 31, 2023, we had $441,232 in cash and cash equivalents, of which $338,703 is held in the United States and the equivalent of $102,529, predominantly in Euros, is held in Europe, compared to $311,553 on July 31, 2022, of which $256,492 was held in the United States and the equivalent of $55,061, predominantly in Euros, was held in Europe. Cash and cash equivalents held internationally may be subject to foreign withholding taxes if repatriated to the United States. The components of the $129,679 increase in cash and cash equivalents are described in more detail below, but the increase was primarily attributable to cash provided by operations of $981,633 less cash used in financing activities of $635,685 and cash used in investing activities of $222,483.

Net working capital at July 31, 2023 was $1,077,098 compared to $1,306,563 at July 31, 2022, with the decrease primarily due to decreases in inventory and accounts receivable as noted in the Operating Activities section below. Capital expenditures of $208,194 for fiscal 2023 were made primarily for land and production building additions and improvements, and replacing machinery and equipment used in the ordinary course of business.

We strive to maintain adequate cash balances to ensure we have sufficient resources to respond to opportunities and changing business conditions. In addition, the unused availability under our revolving asset-based credit facility is generally available to the Company for general operating purposes, and approximated $940,000 at July 31, 2023. We believe our on-hand cash and cash equivalents and funds generated from operations, along with funds available under the revolving asset-based credit facility, will be sufficient to fund expected operational requirements for the foreseeable future.

Our priorities for the use of current and future available cash generated from operations remain consistent with our history, and include reducing our indebtedness, maintaining and, over time, growing our dividend payments and funding our growth, both organically and opportunistically, through acquisitions. We may also consider strategic and opportunistic repurchases of shares of THOR stock under the share repurchase authorizations as discussed in Note 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, and special dividends based upon market and business conditions and excess cash availability, subject to potential customary limits and restrictions pursuant to our credit facilities, applicable legal limitations and determination by the Company's Board of Directors ("Board"). We believe our on-hand cash and cash equivalents and funds generated from operations will be sufficient to fund expected cash dividend payments and share repurchases for the foreseeable future.

Our current estimate of committed and internally approved capital spend for fiscal 2024 is $260,000, primarily for certain building projects and certain automation projects, as well as replacing and upgrading machinery, equipment and other assets throughout our facilities to be used in the ordinary course of business. We anticipate approximately two-thirds of our capital spend will be in North America and one-third in Europe, and that these expenditures will be funded by cash provided by our operating activities.

The Company’s Board currently intends to continue regular quarterly cash dividend payments in the future. As is customary under credit facilities, certain actions, including our ability to pay dividends, are subject to the satisfaction of certain payment conditions prior to payment. The conditions for the payment of dividends under the existing debt facilities include a minimum level of adjusted excess cash availability and a fixed charge coverage ratio test, both as defined in the credit agreements. The declaration of future dividends and the establishment of the per share amounts, record dates and payment dates for any such future dividends are subject to the determination of the Board, and will be dependent upon future earnings, cash flows and other factors, in addition to compliance with any then-existing financing facilities.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities for fiscal 2023 was $981,633 as compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $990,116 for fiscal 2022.

For fiscal 2023, net income adjusted for non-cash items (primarily depreciation, amortization of intangibles, deferred income tax benefit and stock-based compensation) provided $664,339 of operating cash. The change in net working capital provided additional operating cash of $317,294 during fiscal 2023, primarily due to decreases in accounts receivable due to lower sales levels and a reduction in inventory levels.

For fiscal 2022, net income adjusted for non-cash operating items (primarily depreciation, amortization of intangibles, deferred income tax benefit and stock-based compensation) provided $1,405,990 of operating cash. The change in net working capital resulted in the use of $415,874 of operating cash during fiscal 2022, primarily due to an increase in inventory.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities for fiscal 2023 was $222,483, primarily due to capital expenditures of $208,194.

Net cash used in investing activities for fiscal 2022 was $1,049,257, primarily due to $781,967 used in business acquisitions, primarily for the Airxcel acquisition discussed in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, and capital expenditures of $242,357.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities for fiscal 2023 was $635,685, including payments of $100,000 on the ABL facility and $402,355 on the term-loan credit facilities. Additionally, the Company made regular quarterly cash dividend payments of $0.45 per share for each quarter of fiscal 2023 totaling $95,969, and $42,007 was used for treasury share repurchases.

Net cash used in financing activities for fiscal 2022 was $47,841, consisting primarily of borrowings of $660,088 on the revolving asset-based credit facilities, which included $625,000 borrowed in connection with the acquisition of Airxcel and $35,088 for temporary working capital needs, in addition to $500,000 in proceeds from the issuance of Senior Unsecured Notes in October 2021, which were then used as part of the $559,035 in payments on the ABL facility. Payments of $332,907 were also made on the term-loan credit facilities. Additionally, the Company made regular quarterly cash dividend payments of $0.43 per share for each quarter of fiscal 2022 totaling $94,944, and $165,107 was used for treasury share repurchases.

The Company increased its previous regular quarterly dividend of $0.43 per share to $0.45 per share in October 2022. The Company increased its previous regular quarterly dividend of $0.41 per share to $0.43 per share in October 2021.

Principal Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments

Our principal contractual obligations and commercial commitments at July 31, 2023 are summarized in the following charts. Unrecognized income tax benefits in the amount of $15,992 have been excluded from the table because we are unable to determine a reasonably reliable estimate of the timing of future payment. We have no other material off-balance sheet commitments.

Payments Due By Period

(1)See Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

(2)See Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

(3)Represent commitments to purchase specified quantities of raw materials at market prices. The dollar values above have been estimated based on July 31, 2023 market prices.

Total Amounts Committed Amount of Commitment Expiration Per Period

(1)The standby repurchase totals above do not consider any curtailments that lower the eventual repurchase obligation totals, and these obligations generally extend up to eighteen months from the date of sale of the related product to the dealer. In estimating the expiration of the standby repurchase obligations, we used inventory reports as of July 31, 2023 from our independent dealers’ primary lending institutions and made an assumption for obligations for inventory aged 0-12 months that it was financed evenly over the twelve-month period.

Application of Critical Accounting Estimates

See Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information on the Company's significant accounting policies.

The Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires the use of estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. We believe that of our accounting estimates, the following may involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity:

Business Combinations

We account for the acquisition of a business using the acquisition method of accounting. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including amounts attributed to non-controlling interests, are recorded at the acquisition date at their fair values. Assigning fair values requires the Company to make significant estimates and assumptions regarding the fair values of identifiable intangible assets, property, plant and equipment, deferred tax asset valuation allowances, and liabilities, such as uncertain tax positions and contingencies. The Company may refine these estimates, if necessary, over a period not to exceed one year by taking into consideration new information that, if known at the acquisition date, would have affected the fair values ascribed to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

Significant estimates and assumptions are used in estimating the value of acquired identifiable intangible assets, including estimating future cash flows based on revenues and margins that the Company expects to generate following the acquisition, selecting an applicable royalty rate where needed, determining an appropriate dealer attrition rate, applying an appropriate discount rate to estimate a present value of those cash flows and determining their useful lives. Subsequent changes to projections driven by actual results following the acquisition date could require the Company to record impairment charges.

Goodwill, Intangible and Long-Lived Assets

Goodwill results from the excess of purchase price over the net assets of an acquired business. The Company's reporting units are generally the same as its operating segments, which are identified in Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment annually as of May 31 of each fiscal year and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an impairment may have occurred. The total carrying value of goodwill as of July 31, 2023 is $1,800,422. See Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a summary of changes in carrying value by fiscal year and reportable segment. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment charge equal to that excess is recognized, not to exceed the amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. As part of the annual impairment testing, the Company may utilize a qualitative approach rather than a quantitative approach to determine if an impairment exists, considering various factors including industry changes, actual results as compared to forecasted results, or the timing of a recent acquisition, if applicable.

One of the Company's reporting units has a goodwill balance of $388,846 as of July 31, 2023. For its May 31, 2023 annual impairment test of this reporting unit, the Company utilized both a discounted cash flow model and market approach based on guideline public companies to estimate the fair value of this reporting unit. The fair value of this reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by less than 10% in this test. The estimated fair value is subject to significant management judgment, including the determination of many factors such as, but not limited to, sales growth rates, margin growth rates and discount rates developed using market observable inputs and considering risk regarding future performance, as well as market multiples derived from selected guideline public companies. Changes in any of these estimates can have a significant impact on the determination of fair value. Additionally, market data and factors outside the Company’s control, such as dealer and end consumer demand, could have a significant impact on estimated fair value. Changes in any of these estimates or other factors could potentially result in future material impairments.

The Company’s intangible assets are dealer networks, trademarks and design technology and other intangible assets acquired in business acquisitions. Dealer networks are valued on a Discounted Cash Flow method and are amortized on an accelerated basis over 12 to 20 years, with amortization beginning after any applicable backlog amortization is completed. Trademarks and design technology assets are both valued on a Relief of Royalty method and are both amortized on a straight-line basis, using lives of 15 to 25 years for trademarks and 10 to 15 years for design technology assets, respectively. Amortizable intangible assets, net as of July 31, 2023 totaled $996,979. See Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a summary of the components of that balance.

We review our tangible and intangible long-lived assets (individually or in a related group, as appropriate) for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable from future cash flows attributable to the assets. We continually assess whether events or changes in circumstances represent a ‘triggering’ event that would require us to complete an impairment assessment. Factors that we consider in determining whether a triggering event has occurred include, among other things, whether there has been a significant adverse change in legal factors, business climate or competition related to the operation of the asset, whether there has been a significant decrease in actual or expected operating results related to the asset and whether there are current plans to sell or dispose of the asset. The determination of whether a triggering event has occurred is subject to significant management judgment, including at which point or fiscal quarter a triggering event has occurred when the relevant adverse factors persist over extended periods.

Should a triggering event be deemed to occur, and for each of the annual goodwill impairment assessments, management is required to estimate fair value. Fair values are generally determined by a discounted cash flow model, in addition to a market approach based on guideline public companies, in certain situations. These estimates are also subject to significant management judgment, including the determination of many factors such as sales growth rates, gross margin patterns, cost growth rates, terminal value assumptions and discount rates developed using market observable inputs and consideration of risk regarding future performance, as well as market multiples derived from selected guideline public companies. Changes in these estimates can have a significant impact on the determination of cash flows and fair value and could potentially result in future material impairments.

The Company completed its annual goodwill impairment test as of May 31, 2023, and no impairment was identified. See Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information regarding goodwill and intangible assets.

Product Warranty

We generally provide retail customers of our products with either a one-year or two-year warranty covering defects in material or workmanship, with longer warranties on certain structural components or other items. We record a liability, which totaled $345,197 at July 31, 2023, based on our best estimate of the amounts necessary to settle unpaid existing claims and estimated future claims on products sold as of the balance sheet date. Factors we use in estimating the warranty liability include a history of retail sold units, existing THOR units in dealer inventory, historical average costs per unit incurred and a profile of the distribution of warranty expenditures over the warranty period. A significant increase in service shop rates, the cost of parts or the frequency of claims could have a material adverse impact on our operating results for the period or periods in which such additional claims or costs materialize. Management believes that the warranty liability is appropriate; however, actual claims incurred could differ from estimates, requiring adjustments to the reserves.

Accounting Pronouncements

Reference is made to Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this report for a summary of recently adopted accounting pronouncements, which summary is hereby incorporated by reference.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. At times, the Company enters into hedging transactions to mitigate certain of these risks in accordance with guidelines established by the Company’s management. The Company does not use financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

CURRENCY EXCHANGE RISK – The Company’s principal currency exposures mainly relate to the Euro and British Pound Sterling. The Company has used foreign currency forward contracts to manage certain foreign exchange rate exposure related to anticipated sales transactions in Pound Sterling with financial instruments whose maturity date, along with the realized gain or loss, occurs on or near the execution of the anticipated transaction.

The Company also holds $555,506 of debt denominated in Euros at July 31, 2023. A hypothetical 10% change in the Euro/U.S. Dollar exchange rate would change our July 31, 2023 debt balance by an estimated $55,551.

INTEREST RATE RISK– Based on our assumption of the Company’s floating-rate debt levels over the next 12 months, a one-percentage-point increase in interest rates (approximately 13.3% of our weighted-average interest rate at July 31, 2023) would result in an estimated $7,626 reduction in income before income taxes over a one-year period.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Part A – Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains “disclosure controls and procedures”, as such term is defined under Securities Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosures. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, the Company’s management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives and the Company’s management necessarily is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. The Company has carried out an evaluation, as of the end of the period covered by this report, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management as appropriate to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Part B – Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Internal control over financial reporting refers to 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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions of our assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and members of our Board of Directors and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our 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.

The Company’s management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of July 31, 2023 using the criteria set forth in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on its assessment, management believes that as of July 31, 2023, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting is effective based on those criteria.

Our independent registered public accounting firm, Deloitte & Touche LLP, has issued an attestation report on our internal control over financial reporting. The report appears in Part D of this Item 9A.

Part C – Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2023, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part D – Attestation Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the stockholders and the Board of Directors of THOR Industries, Inc.

Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of THOR Industries, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of July 31, 2023, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) 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 July 31, 2023, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended July 31, 2023, of the Company and our report dated September 25, 2023, 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 Annual 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.

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

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the stockholders and the Board of Directors of THOR Industries, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of THOR Industries, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of July 31, 2023 and 2022, the related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows, for each of the three years in the period ended July 31, 2023, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of July 31, 2023 and 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended July 31, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have also 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 July 31, 2023, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated September 25, 2023, expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's 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 Matter

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates 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 matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Valuation of Airxcel Reporting Unit Goodwill–see Note 7 to the financial statements

Critical Audit Matter Description

The Company tests goodwill for impairment annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an impairment may have occurred. The Company typically utilizes a quantitative assessment to test for impairment, which involves a comparison of the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying value. Fair values are determined by a discounted cash flow model, in addition to a market approach based on guideline public companies. These estimates are subject to significant management judgment, including the determination of many factors such as, but not limited to, sales growth rates and discount rates developed using market observable inputs and considering risk regarding future performance, as well as market multiples derived from selected guideline public companies. Changes in any of these estimates can have a significant impact on the determination of cash flows and fair value and could potentially result in future material impairments. The goodwill balance was $1,800 million as of July 31, 2023, of which $389 million was allocated to the Airxcel reporting unit. As a result of the assessment performed by the Company during the year ended July 31, 2023, the Company concluded that the fair value of the Airxcel reporting unit exceeded its carrying value and that there was no impairment of Airxcel reporting unit goodwill.

F-1

We identified the valuation of goodwill for the Airxcel reporting unit as a critical audit matter due to the significant judgments made by management to estimate the fair value of the Airxcel reporting unit and the impact on Airxcel’s operations of changes in recreational vehicle dealer and end consumer demand and also when considering that the difference between the fair value of the Airxcel reporting unit and its carrying value is not significant. This required a high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort, including the need to involve our fair value specialists, when performing audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of management’s estimates and assumptions related to selection of the sales growth rates and discount rate used in the discounted cash flow model and the market multiples used in the market approach based on guideline public companies.

How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit

Our audit procedures related to the sales growth rates, discount rate and market multiples used by management to estimate the Airxcel reporting unit fair value included the following, among others:

•We tested the effectiveness of controls over management’s goodwill impairment evaluation, including those over the determination of reporting unit fair value, such as controls related to management’s selection of the sales growth rates, discount rate and market multiples derived from selected guideline public companies.

•We evaluated the reasonableness of sales growth rates by comparing forecasted sales levels and underlying assumptions to historical operating results, information communicated to the Board of Directors, external data encompassing the recreational vehicle industry, and information furnished to the public by the Company, its peers, and analysts following the Company and the industry.

•With the assistance of our fair value specialists, we evaluated the discount rate, including testing the underlying source information and the mathematical accuracy of the calculation, and developing a range of independent estimates and comparing those to the discount rate selected by management.

•With the assistance of our fair value specialists, we evaluated the market multiples, including testing the underlying source information and mathematical accuracy of the calculations, and comparing the multiples selected by management to its guideline public companies.

1.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Operations – THOR Industries, Inc. was founded in 1980 and is the sole owner of operating subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or “THOR”), that, combined, represent the world’s largest manufacturer of recreational vehicles ("RVs") by units sold and revenue. The Company manufactures a wide variety of RVs in the United States and Europe and sells those vehicles, as well as related parts and accessories, primarily to independent, non-franchise dealers throughout the United States, Canada and Europe. Unless the context requires or indicates otherwise, all references to “THOR,” the “Company,” “we,” “our” and “us” refer to THOR Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries.

The Company’s business activities are primarily comprised of three distinct operations, which include the design, manufacture and sale of North American Towable Recreational Vehicles, North American Motorized Recreational Vehicles and European Recreational Vehicles, with the European vehicles including both towable and motorized products as well as other RV-related products and services. Accordingly, the Company has presented financial information for these three segments in Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

During fiscal 2023, the Company reclassified certain immaterial investments accounted for under the equity method, which had previously been shown as a component of Other long-term assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, to a separate line called Equity investments. In addition, certain other immaterial amounts from the prior fiscal year have been reclassified to conform with current-year presentation.

Principles of Consolidation – The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of THOR Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries. The Company consolidates all majority-owned subsidiaries, and all intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated upon consolidation. The results of any companies acquired during a year are included in the consolidated financial statements for the applicable year from the effective date of the acquisition.

Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Key estimates include the valuation of acquired assets and liabilities, reserves for inventory, incurred but not reported medical claims, warranty claims, workers’ compensation claims, vehicle repurchases, uncertain tax positions, product and non-product litigation and assumptions made in asset impairment assessments. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The Company believes that such estimates are made using consistent and appropriate methods. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents – Interest-bearing deposits and other investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased are considered cash equivalents. At July 31, 2023 and July 31, 2022, cash and cash equivalents of $316,401 and $217,411, respectively, were held by one U.S. financial institution. In addition, at July 31, 2023 and July 31, 2022, the equivalent of $68,170 and $30,609, respectively, was held in Euros at one European financial institution and $18,984 and $8,522, respectively, was held in Euros by a different European financial institution.

Derivatives – The Company uses derivative financial instruments to manage its risk related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. The Company does not hold derivative financial instruments of a speculative nature or for trading purposes. The Company records all derivatives on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at fair value using available market information and other observable data. See Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments – The fair value of long-term debt is discussed in Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Inventories – Inventories are primarily determined on the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) basis, with the remainder on the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) basis. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, except for inventories determined based on LIFO, which are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Manufacturing costs included in inventory include materials, labor, freight-in and manufacturing overhead. Unallocated overhead and abnormal costs are expensed as incurred.

F-7

Depreciation – Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

Buildings and improvements – 10 to 39 years

Machinery and equipment – 3 to 10 years

Rental vehicles – 6 years

Depreciation expense is recorded in cost of products sold, except for $26,999, $25,388 and $22,409 in fiscal 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively, which relates primarily to office buildings and office equipment and is recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses.

Business Combinations – The Company accounts for the acquisition of a business using the acquisition method of accounting. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including amounts attributed to noncontrolling interests, are recorded at the acquisition date at their fair values. Assigning fair values requires the Company to make significant estimates and assumptions regarding the fair value of identifiable intangible assets, inventory, property, plant and equipment, deferred tax asset valuation allowances, and liabilities, such as uncertain tax positions and contingencies. The Company may refine these estimates if necessary, over a period not to exceed one year from the acquisition date, by taking into consideration new information that, if known at the acquisition date, would have affected the fair values ascribed to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

Goodwill – Goodwill results from the excess of purchase price over the net assets of an acquired business. The Company's reporting units are generally the same as its operating segments, which are identified in Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment annually as of May 31 of each fiscal year and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an impairment may have occurred. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment charge equal to that excess is recognized, not to exceed the amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit.

Long-lived and Intangible Assets – Property, plant and equipment and identifiable intangibles that are amortized are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable from future cash flows. If the carrying value of a long-lived asset is impaired, an impairment charge is recorded for the amount by which the carrying value of the long-lived asset exceeds its fair value. Intangible assets consist of trademarks, dealer networks/customer relationships, design technology and non-compete agreements. Trademarks are amortized on a straight-line basis over 15 to 25 years. Dealer networks/customer relationships are amortized on an accelerated basis over 12 to 20 years, with amortization beginning after backlog amortization is completed, if applicable. Design technology and non-compete agreements are amortized using the straight-line method over 2 to 15 years.

Product Warranties – Estimated warranty costs are provided at the time of sale of the related products. See Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

Insurance Reserves – Generally, the Company is self-insured for workers’ compensation, products liability and group medical insurance. Upon the exhaustion of the applicable deductibles or retentions, the Company maintains insurance coverage. Under these plans, liabilities are recognized for claims incurred, including those incurred but not reported. The liability for workers’ compensation claims is determined by the Company with the assistance of a third-party administrator and actuary using various state statutes and historical claims experience. Group medical reserves are estimated using historical claims experience. The Company has established a liability for product liability and personal injury occurrences based on historical data, known cases and actuarial information.

Revenue Recognition – Revenue is recognized as performance obligations under the terms of contracts with customers are satisfied. The Company’s recreational vehicle and other sales contracts have a single performance obligation of providing the promised goods (recreational vehicles or component parts, as applicable), which is satisfied when control of the goods is transferred to the customer.

For recreational vehicle sales, the Company recognizes revenue when its performance obligation has been satisfied and control of the product is transferred to the dealer, which generally aligns with shipping terms. Shipping terms vary depending on regional contracting practices. U.S. customers primarily contract under FOB shipping point terms. European customers generally contract on ExWorks (“EXW”) incoterms (meaning the seller fulfills its obligation to deliver when it makes goods available at its premises, or another specified location, for the buyer to collect). Under EXW incoterms, the performance obligation is satisfied and control is transferred at the point when the customer is notified that the vehicle is available for pickup. Customers do not have a right of return. The majority of warranties provided are assurance-type warranties.

F-8

In addition to recreational vehicle sales, the Company also sells specialized component parts and aluminum extrusions to RV original equipment manufacturers and aftermarket sales through dealers and retailers. The Company’s European recreational vehicle reportable segment also sells accessory items and provides repair services through our two owned dealerships. Each part or item represents a distinct performance obligation satisfied when control of the good is transferred to the customer. Service and repair contracts with customers are short term in nature and are recognized when the service is complete.

Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for the Company’s products and services. The amount of revenue recognized includes adjustments for any variable consideration, such as sales discounts, sales allowances, promotions, rebates and other sales incentives which are included in the transaction price and allocated to each performance obligation based on the standalone selling price. The Company estimates variable consideration based on the expected value of total consideration to which customers are likely to be entitled to based primarily on historical experience and current market conditions. Included in the estimate is an assessment as to whether any variable consideration is constrained. Revenue estimates are adjusted at the earlier of a change in the expected value of consideration or when the consideration becomes fixed. During fiscal 2023, fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021, adjustments to revenue from performance obligations satisfied in prior periods, which relate primarily to changes in estimated variable consideration, were immaterial.

Amounts billed to customers related to shipping and handling activities are included in net sales. The Company has elected to account for shipping and handling costs as fulfillment activities, and these costs are predominantly included in cost of products sold. We do not disclose information about the transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations at period end because our contracts generally have original expected durations of one year or less. In addition, we expense when incurred contract acquisition costs, primarily sales commissions, because the amortization period, which is aligned with the contract term, is one year or less.

Advertising Costs – Advertising costs, which consist primarily of trade shows, are expensed as incurred and were $66,169, $55,461 and $44,638 in fiscal 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Foreign Currency – The financial statements of the Company’s foreign operations with a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rate at each balance sheet date for assets and liabilities, and, for revenues and expenses, the weighted-average exchange rate for each applicable period, and the resulting translation adjustments are recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss), net of tax. Transaction gains and losses from foreign currency exchange rate changes are recorded in Other income (expense), net in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.

Repurchase Agreements – The Company is contingently liable under terms of repurchase agreements with financial institutions providing inventory financing for certain independent domestic and foreign dealers of certain of its RV products. See Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

Income Taxes – The objectives of accounting for income taxes are to recognize the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred tax liabilities and assets for the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our financial statements or tax returns. Judgment is required in assessing the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our financial statements or tax returns. The actual outcome of these future tax consequences could differ from our estimates and have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

The Company recognizes liabilities for uncertain tax positions based on a two-step process. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step requires the Company to estimate and measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than 50% likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement. It is inherently difficult and subjective to estimate such amounts, as the Company has to determine the probability of various possible outcomes. The Company reevaluates these uncertain tax positions on a quarterly basis. This evaluation is based on factors including, but not limited to, changes in facts or circumstances, changes in tax law, effectively settled issues under audit, voluntary settlements and new audit activity. Such a change in recognition or measurement would result in the recognition of a tax benefit or an additional charge to the tax provision.

Judgment is required in determining the Company’s provision for income taxes, the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities and the valuation allowance recorded against the Company’s deferred tax assets. Valuation allowances must be considered due to the uncertainty of realizing deferred tax assets. The Company assesses whether valuation allowances should be established against our deferred tax assets on a tax jurisdictional basis based on the consideration of all available evidence, including cumulative income over recent periods, using a more likely than not standard.

Research and Development – Research and development costs are expensed when incurred and totaled $36,592, $38,998 and $26,775 in fiscal 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Stock-Based Compensation – The Company records compensation expense based on the fair value of stock-based awards, including restricted stock and performance stock units, on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally three years, while some stock-based awards use a graded vesting period. Stock-based compensation expense is recorded net of estimated forfeitures, which is based on historical forfeiture rates over the vesting period of employee awards.

Earnings Per Share – Basic earnings per common share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income attributable to THOR Industries, Inc. by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income attributable to THOR Industries, Inc. by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding assuming dilution. The difference between basic EPS and diluted EPS is the result of unvested restricted stock units and performance stock units as follows:

The Company excludes unvested restricted stock units and performance stock units that have an antidilutive effect from its calculation of weighted-average shares outstanding. Antidilutive unvested restricted stock units and performance stock units excluded from the July 31, 2023, July 31, 2022 and July 31, 2021 calculations were not material.

Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting,” which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform, if certain criteria are met. The optional expedients and exceptions are available for all entities as of March 12, 2020, through December 31, 2022. The Company adopted ASU 2020-04, effective March 12, 2020. As discussed in Note 13, amendments were made to the Company's debt facilities to transition the reference rate for U.S. dollar loans. These changes did not have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

4.DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING

At times, the Company uses interest rate swap agreements, foreign currency forward contracts and certain non-derivative financial instruments to help manage its risks associated with foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. The Company records derivatives as assets and liabilities on the balance sheet at fair value. Changes in the fair value of derivative instruments are recognized in earnings unless the derivative qualifies and is designated as a hedge. Cash flows from derivatives are classified in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows in the same category as the cash flows from the items subject to designated hedge or undesignated (economic) hedge relationships. The Company evaluates hedge effectiveness at inception and on an ongoing basis. If a derivative is no longer expected to be effective, hedge accounting is discontinued.

Certain of the Company’s derivative transactions were subject to master netting arrangements that allow the Company to net settle contracts with the same counterparties. These arrangements generally do not call for collateral and as of the applicable dates presented below, no cash collateral had been received or pledged related to the underlying derivatives.

As of July 31, 2023 there were not any derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges. As of July 31, 2022, the fair value of our derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges, and the associated notional amounts, presented on a pre-tax basis, were as follows:

Foreign currency forward contracts $ 33,997 $ — $ 80

Total derivative financial instruments $ 307,322 $ 850 $ 80

The Company previously held interest rate swaps to convert a portion of the Company’s long-term debt from floating rate to fixed rate debt to partially hedge the interest rate risk related to the Company’s U.S. dollar term loan tranche that matures in February 2026.

Foreign currency forward contracts outstanding at July 31, 2022 were used to exchange British Pounds Sterling for Euro. Effective August 1, 2022, the Company's foreign currency forward contracts were no longer designated as cash flow hedges.

Net Investment Hedges

The Company designates a portion of its outstanding Euro-denominated term loan tranche as a hedge of foreign currency exposures related to investments the Company has in certain Euro-denominated functional currency subsidiaries.

The foreign currency transaction gains and losses on the Euro-denominated portion of the term loan, which is designated and effective as a hedge of the Company’s net investment in its Euro-denominated functional currency subsidiaries, are included as a component of the foreign currency translation adjustment. Gains (losses), net of tax, included in the foreign currency translation adjustment were $(27,211), $62,244, and $(1,943) for the fiscal years ended July 31, 2023, July 31, 2022 and July 31, 2021, respectively.

There were no amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) pertaining to the net investment hedge during the fiscal years ended July 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021.

The Company has certain other derivative instruments which have not been designated as hedges. These other derivative instruments had a notional amount totaling approximately $25,248 and a fair value liability of $932 as of July 31, 2023. These other derivative instruments had a notional amount totaling approximately $25,628 and a fair value liability of $1,077 as of July 31, 2022. For these derivative instruments, changes in fair value are recognized in earnings.

During fiscal 2023 the amount of inventories in certain LIFO pools decreased and resulted in the liquidation of LIFO inventory layers carried at lower costs. The effect of this liquidation was to increase net income before income taxes by approximately $8,300, all in the North American Towable segment.
