Thor Industries reports Q3 EPS $2.53, consensus $1.80

Reports Q3 revenue $2.89B, consensus $2.61B. “Our Q3 results exceeded our expectations on both the top and bottom lines. The successful execution of key strategic initiatives, in particular placing further emphasis on driving down our cost profile, led to improved margins in an environment where we saw modest year-over-year top-line improvement. THOR’s operating model, particularly within North America, is designed to ramp upward and downward in an incredibly efficient manner, and our performance in the fiscal third quarter exhibited the strength and flexibility of this operating model. We are incredibly proud of our hard-working team members as they continue to execute to plan in the face of numerous challenging market conditions as we navigate through this prolonged industry downturn together. Our Q3 performance exemplifies what makes THOR the market leader. History has proven THOR’s ability to weather difficult macroeconomic circumstances and to come back stronger when market conditions improve. While the current level of uncertainty is unprecedented, and we believe the next two fiscal quarters will be challenging for the RV industry as a whole, we are very pleased that our efforts are starting to move the needle,” stated Bob Martin, President and CEO of THOR Industries (THO).
