THIRD QUARTER RESULTS
The Company’s three-month period ended October 31, 2023 was marked by a decrease in the volume of shipments and revenues compared to the three-month period ended October 31, 2022. The results of the third quarter of this fiscal year were driven by a decrease in PWC and 3WV deliveries, as the third quarter of this fiscal year compares unfavourably to a strong third quarter last fiscal year, where shipments of PWC and 3WV were completed after peak retail season due to supply chain issues last year. The ORV [5] deliveries were also negatively impacted during the third quarter from the lower delivery throughput at the U.S.-Mexico border, following a three-week period of increased cargo inspections. The decrease can also be explained by a softening in industry demand in the International market compared to the three-month period ended October 31, 2022. The Company’s North American quarterly retail sales were up for SSV, ATV and Snowmobile which were offset by lower retail of PWC, 3WV and Sea-Doo pontoon resulting in overall flat retail when compared to the same period last year. Furthermore, the Company continues to demonstrate production efficiencies due to supply chain improvements, leading to an increase in the profit margin percentage for the three-month period ended October 31, 2023, compared to the same period last year.
RevenuesRevenues decreased by $241.5 million, or 8.9%, to $2,467.8 million for the three-month period ended October 31, 2023, compared to $2,709.3 million for the corresponding period ended October 31, 2022. The decrease was primarily due to a lower volume of PWC, 3WV, SSV and Sea-Doo pontoon sold, mainly explained by the late shipments of PWC and 3WV for the same period last fiscal year, the U.S.-Mexico border slowdown affecting ORV [5] deliveries, the softening in industry demand in the International market, and higher sales programs across all product lines except PWC. The decrease was partially offset by a higher volume of Snowmobile and ATV sold, favourable product mix, and favourable pricing across all product lines. The decrease includes a favourable foreign exchange rate variation of $7 million.
Year-Round Products [6] (48% of Q3-FY24 revenues): Revenues from Year-Round Products decreased by $99.2 million, or 7.8%, to $1,180.6 million for the three-month period ended October 31, 2023, compared to $1,279.8 million for the corresponding period ended October 31, 2022. The decrease was primarily attributable to a lower volume of 3WV and SSV sold, combined with higher sales programs. The decrease in SSV wholesale is partially explained by the U.S.-Mexico border slowdown, where the implementation of systematic cargo inspections adversely affected the Company’s ability to complete certain deliveries. The decrease in revenues was partially offset by a favourable product mix of SSV and ATV sold due to the introduction of new models, and favourable pricing across all product lines. The decrease includes a favourable foreign exchange rate variation of $5 million.
Seasonal Products [6] (35% of Q3-FY24 revenues): Revenues from Seasonal Products decreased by $152.2 million, or 14.9%, to $868.7 million for the three-month period ended October 31, 2023, compared to $1,020.9 million for the corresponding period ended October 31, 2022. The decrease was primarily attributable to a lower volume of PWC and Sea-Doo pontoon sold, mainly due to late shipments in the three-month period ended October 31, 2022. The decrease was partially offset by a higher volume of Snowmobile sold, a favourable product mix due to the introduction of new models, and favourable pricing across all product lines. The decrease also includes an unfavourable foreign exchange rate variation of $4 million.
[5] ORV defined as Off-Road Vehicles[6] The inter-segment transactions are included in the analysis
Powersports PA&A and OEM Engines [6] (13% of Q3-FY24 revenues): Revenues from Powersports PA&A and OEM Engines increased by $16.5 million, or 5.5%, to $314.5 million for the three-month period ended October 31, 2023, compared to $298.0 million for the corresponding period ended October 31, 2022. The increase was attributable to a higher volume sold, coming from aircraft engine and mechanical gearbox sales for traditional and electric bicycles, and favourable pricing, partially offset by higher sales programs. The increase also includes a favourable foreign exchange rate variation of $5 million.
Marine [6] (4% of Q3-FY24 revenues): Revenues from the Marine segment decreased by $12.1 million, or 10.2%, to $106.7 million for the three-month period ended October 31, 2023, compared to $118.8 million for the corresponding period ended October 31, 2022. The decrease was mainly due to a decrease in the volume sold and an increase in sales programs. The decrease was partially offset by a favourable product mix and pricing across most product lines. The decrease includes a favourable foreign exchange rate variation of $1 million.
North American Retail Sales
The Company’s North American retail sales for Powersports Products were flat for the three-month period ended October 31, 2023 compared to the three-month period ended October 31, 2022. This was mainly driven by the strong retail sales of Snowmobile for the three-month period ended October 31, 2023 compared to the three-month period ended October 31, 2022, which completely offset the decrease in the retail sales of PWC and 3WV, which was due to late shipments that occurred after peak retail season during the three-month period ended October 31, 2022.
Year-Round Products: retail sales increased on a percentage basis in the high-single digits compared to the three-month period ended October 31, 2022. The Year-Round Products industry increased on a percentage basis in the low-single digits over the same period.
Seasonal Products: retail sales decreased on a percentage basis in the low-teens range and by high-single digits when excluding Sea-Doo pontoon, compared to the three-month period ended October 31, 2022. The Seasonal Products industry increased on a percentage basis in the high-single digits over the same period.
The Company’s North American retail sales for Marine Products decreased by 30% compared to the three-month period ended October 31, 2022 as a result of softening consumer demand for the boating industry.
Gross profit
Gross profit decreased by $27.3 million, or 4.2%, to $627.4 million for the three-month period ended October 31, 2023, compared to $654.7 million for the three-month period ended October 31, 2022. Gross profit margin percentage increased by 120 basis points to 25.4% from 24.2% for the three-month period ended October 31, 2022. The decrease in gross profit was the result of a lower volume sold, as highlighted above, higher sales programs, and higher labor costs due to inflation. The decrease was partially offset by favourable pricing across all product lines, favourable product mix of Snowmobile and SSV sold, a decrease in logistics costs due to more efficiencies in the supply chain and a reduction in certain material costs. The increase in gross profit margin percentage was the result of favourable pricing across all product lines and higher production efficiency coming from an improved supply chain, partially offset by a lower volume sold and higher sales programs. The decrease in gross profit includes an unfavourable foreign exchange rate variation of $19 million.
[6] The inter-segment transactions are included in the analysis
Operating expensesOperating expenses increased by $39.7 million, or 14.7%, to $309.6 million for the three-month period ended October 31, 2023, compared to $269.9 million for the three-month period ended October 31, 2022. The increase was mainly attributable to an increase in R&D expenses to support future growth. The increase in operating expenses includes an unfavourable foreign exchange rate variation of $10 million.
Normalized EBITDA [1]Normalized EBITDA [1] decreased by $43.0 million, or 8.8%, to $444.9 million for the three-month period ended October 31, 2023, compared to $487.9 million for the three-month period ended October 31, 2022. The decrease was primarily due to lower gross profit and higher operating expenses.
Net IncomeNet income decreased by $78.5 million to $63.1 million, or 55.4%, for the three-month period ended October 31, 2023, compared to $141.6 million for the three-month period ended October 31, 2022. The decrease was primarily due to a lower operating income, an unfavourable foreign exchange rate variation on the U.S. denominated long-term debt and an increase in financing costs, partially offset by a lower income tax expense and an increase in financing income.
NINE-MONTH PERIOD ENDED OCTOBER 31, 2023
RevenuesRevenues increased by $718.1 million, or 10.3%, to $7,675.2 million for the nine-month period ended October 31, 2023, compared to $6,957.1 million for the corresponding period ended October 31, 2022. The increase was primarily due to a higher volume of SSV, ATV and Snowmobile sold, increased deliveries of Sea-Doo pontoon, favourable product mix across most product lines, as well as favourable pricing. The increase was partially offset by higher sales programs which are mostly due to rising interest rates, and a lower volume of 3WV, PWC and PA&A sold. The increase includes a favourable foreign exchange rate variation of $183 million.
Normalized EBITDA [1]Normalized EBITDA [1] increased by $116.8 million, or 9.9%, to $1,295.1 million for the nine-month period ended October 31, 2023, compared to $1,178.3 million for the nine-month period ended October 31, 2022. The increase was primarily due to higher gross profit, partially offset by higher operating expenses.
Net IncomeNet income increased by $56.0 million to $556.3 million, or 11.2%, for the nine-month period ended October 31, 2023, compared to the $500.3 million for the nine-month period ended October 31, 2022. The increase was primarily due to a higher operating income, lower income tax expense and a favourable impact of the foreign exchange rate variation on the U.S. denominated long-term debt, partially offset by an increase in financing costs.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCESThe Company generated net cash flows from operating activities totaling $1,053.2 million for the nine-month period ended October 31, 2023 compared to net cash flows of $342.3 million for the nine-month period ended October 31, 2022. The increase was mainly due to higher profitability, favourable changes in working capital and lower income taxes paid.
The Company invested $352.5 million of its liquidity in capital expenditures to add production capacity and modernize the Company’s software infrastructure to support future growth.

In the event that the Company does update any forward-looking statements contained in this press release, no inference should be made that the Company will make additional updates with respect to that statement, related matters or any other forward-looking statement. The forward-looking statements contained in this press release are expressly qualified by this cautionary statement.
KEY ASSUMPTIONS
The Company made a number of economic, market and operational assumptions in preparing and making certain forward-looking statements contained in this press release, as well as the following assumptions: reasonable industry growth ranging from down to slightly up, that assumes an improved supply chain environment compared to last year; market share will remain constant or moderately increase; the softening of global and North American economic conditions, a limited impact from the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the COVID-19 pandemic; no further deterioration of the conflicts in the Middle-East; no return of the mandatory inspections implemented on all cargo trucks crossing the Mexico-Texas border; main currencies in which the Company operates will remain at near current levels; inflation is expected to remain elevated, in-line with central banks projections; there will be no significant changes in tax laws or free trade arrangements or treaties applicable to the Company; the Company’s margins will remain at current levels; the supply base will remain able to support product development and planned production rates on commercially acceptable terms in a timely manner; no new trade barriers will be imposed amongst jurisdictions in which the Company carries operations; the absence of unusually adverse weather conditions, especially in peak seasons. The Company cautions that its assumptions may not materialize and that global economic and political conditions, combined with one or more of the risks and uncertainties discussed herein, may render such assumptions, although believed reasonable at the time they were made, inaccurate. Such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results or performance of the Company or the industry to be materially different from the outlook or any future results or performance implied by such statements.
NON-IFRS MEASURES
This press release makes reference to certain non-IFRS measures. These measures are not recognized measures under IFRS, do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these measures are provided as additional information to complement those IFRS measures by providing further understanding of the Company’s results of operations from management’s perspective. Accordingly, they should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s financial information reported under IFRS. The Company uses non-IFRS measures including the following:
|
Non-IFRS measures |
Definition |
Reason for use |
||
|
Normalized EBITDA |
Net income before financing costs, financing income, income tax expense (recovery), depreciation expense and normalized elements. |
Assist investors in determining the financial performance of the Company’s operating activities on a consistent basis by excluding certain non-cash elements such as depreciation expense, impairment charge, foreign exchange gain or loss on the Company’s long-term debt denominated in U.S. dollars and foreign exchange gain or loss on certain of the Company’s lease liabilities. Other elements, such as restructuring and wind-down costs, non-recurring gain or loss and acquisition-related costs, may be excluded from net income in the determination of Normalized EBITDA as they are considered not being reflective of the operational performance of the Company. |
||
|
Normalized net income |
Net income before normalized elements adjusted to reflect the tax effect on these elements |
In addition to the financial performance of operating activities, these measures consider the impact of investing activities, financing activities and income taxes on the Company’s financial results |
||
|
Normalized income tax expense |
Income tax expense adjusted to reflect the tax effect on normalized elements and to normalize specific tax elements |
|||
|
Normalized effective tax rate |
Based on Normalized net income before Normalized income tax expense |
|||
|
Normalized earnings per share – diluted |
Calculated by dividing the Normalized net income by the weighted average number of shares – diluted |
|||
The Company believes non-IFRS measures are important supplemental measures of financial performance because they eliminate items that have less bearing on the Company’s financial performance and thus highlight trends in its core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS measures. The Company also believes that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use non-IFRS measures in the evaluation of companies, many of which present similar metrics when reporting their results. Management also uses non-IFRS measures in order to facilitate financial performance comparisons from period to period, prepare annual operating budgets, assess the Company’s ability to meet its future debt service, capital expenditure and working capital requirements and also as a component in the determination of the short-term incentive compensation for the Company’s employees. Because other companies may calculate these non-IFRS measures differently than the Company does, these metrics are not comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
The Company refers the reader to the tables below for the reconciliations of the non-IFRS measures presented by the Company to the most directly comparable IFRS measure.
