LCI Industries reports Q1 adjusted EPS $2.19, consensus $1.56

Reports Q1 revenue $1.05B, consensus $972.33M. “We delivered strong first quarter results, exceeding expectations despite ongoing macroeconomic headwinds. We continued to leverage both our innovative product portfolio and our distinct competitive advantages to capture content growth and market share across multiple product categories. This success, along with our steadfast focus on execution, effective cost management, and operational flexibility, enabled us to achieve both top and bottom line growth,” commented Jason Lippert, LCI Industries (LCII)’ President and Chief Executive Officer. “Our first quarter results also demonstrated the agility of our operations, as we scaled production to support modest RV inventory rebuilding and drove 20% sales growth in our North American RV OEM business. We also recently acquired Freedman Seating and Trans/Air, deepening our position in the bus market, an adjacency shielded from consumer swings as city and transit fleet upgrades remain essential. Our ability to scale operations and presence in diverse end markets continues to support strong margin expansion, effectively driving an operating margin increase of 180 basis points.”
