MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
OPERATIONS
- ----------
Quarter Ended January 31, 1998 vs. Quarter Ended January 31, 1997
- -----------------------------------------------------------------
Net sales for the second quarter totaled $134,509,914 up 8.9% from $123,525,067
in the same period last year. Income before income taxes was $6,137,450 compared
to $3,489,965 in the same period last year. This increase was primarily due to
the gain on sale of a subsidiary of $1,269,000, increased sales volume, improved
labor efficiency and lower warranty costs. In general, the Company did not
adjust its sales prices during the second quarter of Fiscal 1998. Recreation
vehicle revenues of $102,279,952 were 15.1% higher than last year and were 76.0%
of total company revenues compared to 71.9% last year. Bus revenues of
$32,229,962 were 7.1% lower than last year and were 24.0% of total company
revenues compared to 28.1% last year. Manufacturing gross profit was 11.4% of
sales compared to 9.7% last year.
Operating income totaled $4,950,173, up 29.5% from $3,822,138 in the same period
last year. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to
$10,354,261, 7.7% of sales, from $8,185,152, 6.6% of sales, due primarily to
increased income related compensation, and increased selling expenses in the
highly competitive RV markets. Interest income increased by $69,329 and interest
expense decreased by $244,116. This decrease in interest expense was due
primarily to the payback of additional borrowing for the purchase of 503,319
shares of treasury stock in Fiscal 1997. The combined income tax rate was 38.0%
compared to 42.1% last year. This decrease in tax was due primarily to use of a
capital loss carryforward applied to the gain on the sale of a subsidiary.
Six Months Ended January 31, 1998 vs. Six Months Ended January 31, 1997
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
Net sales for the six months totaled $299,968,268, up 9.5% from $274,021,888 in
the same period last year. Income before income taxes was $16,230,070 compared
to $12,072,758 in the same period last year. This increase was primarily due to
the gain on sale of a subsidiary of $1,269,000, increased sales volume, improved
labor efficiency and lower warranty costs. Recreation vehicle revenues of
$227,940,435 were 10.4% higher than last year and were 76.0% of total company
revenues compared to 75.3% last year. Bus revenues of $72,027,833 were 6.5%
higher than last year and were 24.0% of total company revenues compared to 24.7%
last year. Manufacturing gross profit was 11.6% of sales compared to 10.5% last
year.
Operating income totaled $14,404,886, up 20.1% from $11,995,064 in the same
period last year. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to
$20,433,227, 6.8% of sales, from $16,702,136, 6.1% of sales due primarily to an
adjustment to deferred compensation in the first quarter of Fiscal 1997 of
$669,000, an increase in income related compensation and increased selling
expense in the highly competitive RV market in 1998. Interest income increased
by $68,490 and interest expense decreased by $410,984. This decrease in interest
expense was due primarily to the payback of additional borrowings for the
purchase of 543,319 shares of treasury stock in Fiscal 1997. The combined income
tax rate was 39.5% compared to 40.9% last year. This decrease in tax was due
primarily to use of a capital loss carryforward applied to the gain on the sale
of a subsidiary.
Financial Condition and Liquidity
- ---------------------------------
As of January 31, 1998, Thor had $18,745,493 in cash and cash equivalents,
compared to $13,380,357 on July 31, 1997. Working capital at January 31, 1998
was $92,392,215 compared to $81,787,231 at July 31, 1997. Inventory valued at
current cost at January 31, 1998 exceeded the LIFO inventory by $3,570,977.
On January 31, 1998, the Company had a $30,000,000 revolving line of credit with
Harris Trust and Savings Bank. There were no borrowings at January 31, 1998. The
loan agreement contains certain covenants, including restrictions on additional
indebtedness, and the Company must maintain certain financial ratios. The line
of credit bears interest at negotiated rates below prime and expires on November
30, 1998. The Company had no long term debt as of January 31, 1998. Amortization
of intangibles decreased from $1,082,870 through January 31, 1997 to $952,197
through January 31, 1998 due to certain intangibles being fully amortized.

OPERATIONS

(continued)
On September 29, 1997, the Board of Directors approved the Thor Industries, Inc.
Restricted Stock and Select Executive Incentive Plans. Under the terms of the
Restricted Stock Plan a total of up to 100,000 restricted shares of stock may be
granted to selected executives within a 10 year period.
On December 31, 1997, the Company sold for cash certain assets and liabilities
of Henschen Corp., a division of Airstream, Inc. The transaction resulted in a
one time pre-tax gain of approximately $1,269,000.
On February 9, 1998, the Company purchased certain assets and liabilities of
Champion Motor Coach, Inc. The total cash price of the acquisition was
approximately $10,163,356 which was paid from internal funds.
The Company's Thor West facility is operating at a loss. Management is currently
taking actions to reduce costs and improve sales volume, which management
believes will be successful. However, no assurance can be made that Thor West
will attain profitable operations.
The Company believes internally generated funds and the revolving credit
agreement already in place will be sufficient to meet current operating needs
and anticipated capital requirements.
This report includes "forward looking statements" that involve uncertainties and
risks. There can be no assurance that actual results will not differ from the
Company's expectations. Factors which could cause materially different results
include, among others, the success of new product introductions, the pace of
acquisitions and cost structure improvements, competitive and general economic
conditions, and the other risks set forth in the Company's filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.
