Notes to the Condensed Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollars in thousands, unless noted otherwise)

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

The condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of REV Group, Inc. (“REV” or “the Company”) and all of its subsidiaries and are prepared in conformity within generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary to present fairly REV’s consolidated financial position as of January 28, 2017 and October 29, 2016, and the consolidated results of operations and comprehensive income for the three months ended January 28, 2017 and January 30, 2016 and the consolidated cash flows for the three months then ended. The condensed unaudited consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for the three months ended January 28, 2017 and January 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The condensed unaudited consolidated balance sheet data as of October 29, 2016 was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto.

During fiscal year 2016, the Company changed its fiscal year end from October 31 of each year to the last Saturday in October of each year going forward.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Initial Public Offering: On January 26, 2017, the Company announced the pricing of an initial public offering (“IPO”) of shares of its common stock, which began trading on the New York Stock Exchange on January 27, 2017. On February 1, 2017, the Company completed the IPO of 12.5 million shares of common stock at a price of $22.00 per share. The Company received $275.0 million in gross proceeds from the IPO, or approximately $254.4 million in net proceeds after deducting the underwriting discount and expenses related to the IPO. The net proceeds of the IPO were used to pay down the Company’s existing debt. Immediately prior to closing of the IPO, the Company completed an 80-for-one stock split of its Class A common stock and Class B common stock and reclassified the Class A common stock and Class B common stock into a single class of common stock, which was the same class as the shares sold in the IPO. All share and per share data have been retroactively restated to give effect to this stock split.

Note 2. Acquisitions

Renegade RV Acquisition

On December 30, 2016, the Company acquired 100% of the common shares of Kibbi, LLC, which operated as Renegade RV (“Renegade” and the “Renegade Acquisition”). Renegade is a leading manufacturer of recreational vehicles and heavy-duty special application trailers. The purchase price for Renegade was $22,178 ($20,581 net of cash acquired), subject to an adjustment based on the level of net working capital and debt at closing, as defined in the purchase agreement. The net cash consideration paid at closing was funded through the Company’s ABL Facility. Renegade is reported as part of the Recreation segment. The preliminary purchase price allocation resulted in goodwill of $3,132, which is not deductible for income tax purposes.

The acquisition of Renegade has been accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting, whereby the purchase price was allocated to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values on the acquisition date, with the remaining unallocated purchase price recorded as goodwill. Fair value measurements have been applied based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing of the asset or liability. The accounting for this transaction is preliminary and subject to potential adjustments, no later than one year from the date of acquisition.

As of January 28, 2017, the Company had not completed its assessment of the value of acquired assets and liabilities, as well as the completion of the determination of the final purchase price calculation, as defined in the purchase agreement.

The following table summarizes the preliminary fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed for Renegade:

Assets:
Cash	$	1,597
Accounts receivable, net		2,334
Inventories, net		14,226
Other current assets		131
Property, plant and equipment		751
Intangible assets, net		6,400
Total assets acquired	$	25,439
Liabilities:
Accounts payable		4,230
Accrued warranty		570
Customer advances		272
Other current liabilities		776
Deferred income taxes		480
Other long-term liabilities		65
Total liabilities assumed		6,393
Net Assets Acquired		19,046
Consideration Paid		22,178
Goodwill	$	3,132

Intangible assets acquired as a result of the Renegade Acquisition are as follows:

Customer relationships (6 year life)	$	4,100
Order backlog (1 year life)		700
Trade names (indefinite life)		1,600
Total intangible assets, net	$	6,400

Sales and operating loss for the three months ended January 28, 2017 attributable to the Renegade acquisition were $5,209 and $155, respectively. The Company has not included pro forma financial information in this report as if the acquisition had occurred on November 1, 2015, since the Renegade Acquisition did not meet the materiality requirement for such disclosure.

Kovatch Mobile Equipment Acquisition

On April 22, 2016, the Company acquired certain real estate assets and 100% of the common shares of Kovatch Mobile Equipment Corp. (“KME” and the “KME Acquisition”). KME produces a broad portfolio of customized specialty fire apparatus vehicles, and markets them to fire-rescue, military, aviation, and industrial customers globally. The KME Acquisition strengthens the Company’s share in the emergency vehicle market by expanding the Company’s product portfolio into segments of the fire apparatus market, which have not been previously served by the Company’s existing businesses and complements the Company’s existing product portfolio. The purchase price for KME was $39,602 ($30,112 net of $9,490 cash acquired) and a subsequent $511 adjustment paid to the Company based on the level of net working capital and debt at closing. The net cash consideration paid at closing was funded through the Company’s ABL Facility. KME is reported as part of the Fire & Emergency segment. The preliminary purchase price allocation resulted in goodwill of $1,314, which is not deductible for income tax purposes.

The acquisition of KME has been accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting, whereby the purchase price was allocated to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values on the acquisition date, with the remaining unallocated purchase price recorded as goodwill. Fair value measurements have been applied based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing of the asset or liability. The accounting for this transaction is preliminary and subject to potential adjustments, no later than one year from the date of acquisition.

As of January 28, 2017, the Company had not completed its final assessment of the value of liabilities for environmental, workers’ compensation and warranty liabilities which existed as of the date of acquisition. Adjustments which may result from the completion of this assessment may also result in a change in the value of deferred income tax assets and liabilities.

8

The following table summarizes the preliminary fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed for KME:

Assets:
Cash	$	9,490
Receivables, net		13,651

Total assets acquired		125,174
Liabilities:

Accrued warranty		14,357
Deferred income taxes		5,977
Other current liabilities		9,280
Total liabilities assumed		86,886
Net Assets Acquired		38,288
Consideration Paid		39,602
Goodwill	$	1,314

Customer relationships (9 year life)	$	8,550
Trade names (indefinite life)		2,400
Total intangible assets, net	$	10,950

Net sales and operating loss for the three months ended January 28, 2017, attributable to the KME acquisition were $35,829 and $400, respectively. The Company has not included pro forma financial information in this report as if the acquisition had occurred on November 1, 2015, since the KME Acquisition did not meet the materiality requirement for such disclosure.

Hall-Mark Fire Apparatus Acquisition

On November 20, 2015, the Company acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of Hall-Mark Fire Apparatus Inc. (“Hall-Mark” and the “Hall-Mark Acquisition”). The Hall-Mark acquisition provides the Company with the opportunity to expand its parts and service offerings to its customers. The purchase price was $3,000 in cash with $2,000 paid at closing and a total of $1,000 payable in quarterly installments over the next five years. Additionally, the Company assumed $3,698 of Hall-Mark’s debt, offset by $385 of cash acquired. The net cash consideration paid at closing was funded through the Company’s ABL Facility. Hall-Mark is reported as part of the Fire & Emergency segment. The purchase price allocation resulted in goodwill of $368, which is deductible for income tax purposes.

The Hall-Mark Acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting, whereby the purchase price was allocated to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values on the acquisition date, with the remaining unallocated purchase price recorded as goodwill. Fair value measurements have been applied based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing of the asset or liability.

The following table summarizes the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed for Hall-Mark:

Assets:
Cash	$	385
Accounts receivable		3,135

The Hall-Mark trade names will be amortized over five years, customer lists will be amortized over nine years, non-compete agreements will be amortized over six years and the order backlog is being amortized over a one-year period.

Net sales and operating income for the three months ended January 28, 2017, attributable to the Hall-Mark acquisition were $14,211 and $304, respectively. The Company has not included pro forma financial information as if the acquisition had occurred on November 1, 2015, since the Hall-Mark Acquisition did not meet the materiality requirement for such disclosure.

Ancira Acquisition

On December 14, 2015, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire the land, building, and inventory of a recreational vehicle dealer in Texas (“Ancira” and the “Ancira Acquisition”). The purchase price for the Ancira Acquisition was $19,976.

As the Company did not acquire any business processes, namely the dealer license from this dealer, the Ancira Acquisition was accounted for as an asset acquisition, and accordingly, the total purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired based on their relative fair value. No intangible assets were acquired or recognized as a result of the Ancira Acquisition.

The following table summarizes the allocated cost of the assets acquired in the Ancira Acquisition:

Inventory	$	13,541

Note 7. Notes Payable and Bank Debt

The Company was obligated under the following debt instruments:

	January 28, 2017		October 29, 2016
Senior secured facility:
Senior secured notes, net of debt discount ($413 and $455) and debt issuance costs ($3,179 and $3,505)	$	176,408	$	176,040
ABL Facility		159,600		80,000
Notes payable and bank debt	$	336,008	$	256,040

Senior Secured Notes

On October 21, 2013, the Company issued (the “Offering”) $200,000 in aggregate principal amount of its 8.5% Senior Secured Notes (the “Notes”). The net proceeds from the Offering, together with net proceeds from the Company’s ABL Facility (defined below), were used to finance the acquisition of the commercial bus business of Thor Industries, Inc. in fiscal year 2013 and to repay all outstanding debt existing at the time of the Offering.

The Notes mature on November 1, 2019. All principal is due in full on the maturity date. Interest accrues on the Notes at the rate of 8.5% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on May 1 and November 1 each year.

The Notes are guaranteed by all direct and indirect wholly owned domestic subsidiaries of the Company that guarantee debt under the ABL Facility described below. The Notes are secured by a first priority lien on substantially all of the guarantors’ assets other than accounts receivable and inventory, and related assets, pledged under the ABL Facility. The Notes are also secured by a second priority lien on substantially all of the collateral under the ABL Facility. The Notes are effectively subordinated to debt incurred under the ABL Facility, or other permitted debt facilities and obligations, as defined, to the extent of the value of the assets securing the ABL Facility.

On October 17, 2016, the Company completed an open market purchase of $20,000 of its outstanding Notes, which were subsequently cancelled. The Company paid a premium of $400 and accrued interest of $784 as of the date of the purchase.

After November 1, 2016, the Company may redeem all or a part of the Notes at the redemption prices set forth below plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes redeemed, to the applicable redemption date:

102.125% (Year 2017)

100.000% (Year 2018 and thereafter)

Upon a change of control, as defined, each holder of the Notes will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part of the holder’s Notes at 101%, so long as the Note is a minimum of $2,000.

The Notes were issued with an applicable original issue discount (“OID”) of $1,166. The Company also incurred $8,980 in associated debt issuance costs. The OID is being accreted and debt issuance costs are being amortized over the debt term using the effective

12

interest method. The principal on the Notes is being reported on the consolidated balance sheets net of the unamortized OID of $413 and $455 at January 28, 2017 and October 29, 2016, respectively. The unamortized debt issuance costs are being reported on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as a reduction of notes payable and bank debt and totaled $3,179 and $3,505 at January 28, 2017 and October 29, 2016, respectively. The Notes contain certain financial covenants. The Company was in compliance with all financial covenants under the Notes as of January 28, 2017.

At January 28, 2017, the Company had $180,000 in principal outstanding under the Notes.

On January 17, 2017, the Company issued a Notice of Conditional Redemption, subject to the completion of the Company’s IPO, to redeem all the outstanding Notes at a redemption price of 104.250% plus accrued and unpaid interest. On February 16, 2017, the Company redeemed all Notes which were outstanding as of that date, and retired the debt. The Company paid a premium of $7,650 and accrued interest of $4,463 as of the redemption date.

ABL Facility

Effective October 21, 2013, the Company entered into a $150,000 senior secured revolving credit and guaranty agreement (the Asset Based Lending or “ABL Facility”) with a syndicate of lenders. The ABL Facility consists of: (i) Revolving Loans, (ii) Swing Line Loans, and (iii) Letters of Credit, aggregating up to a combined maximum of $150,000. The total amount borrowed was subject to a $15,000 sublimit for Swing Line Loans, and a $25,000 sublimit for Letters of Credit, along with certain borrowing base and other customary restrictions as defined in the agreement. The Company incurred $3,526 in debt issuance costs related to the ABL Facility.

On April 22, 2016, the Company exercised its $50,000 Incremental Commitment option under the ABL Facility in conjunction with the KME Acquisition, which increased the borrowing capacity under the ABL Facility to $200,000 at that time. All other terms and conditions remain unchanged.

On August 19, 2016, the Company amended the ABL Facility to add an Incremental Commitment option of $100,000 (the “August 2016 Amendment”), and on that date exercised the Incremental Commitment option. The August 2016 Amendment increased the borrowing capacity under the ABL Facility to $300,000. All other terms and conditions remain unchanged.

All outstanding principal on the ABL Facility is due and payable on the maturity date of October 21, 2018, unless as otherwise amended per the terms of the agreement. Principal may be repaid at any time during the term of the ABL Facility without penalty. The lenders hold a first priority security interest in essentially all accounts receivable and inventory of the Company, and a second priority security interest in all other assets of the Company. All obligations under the ABL Facility are effectively subordinate to other debt to the extent of the value of collateral other than accounts receivable and inventory.

All Revolving Loans under the ABL Facility bear interest at rates equal to, at the Company’s option, either a Base Rate plus an Applicable Margin, or a Eurodollar Rate plus an Applicable Margin. All Swing Line Loans under the ABL Facility bear interest at a rate equal to a Base Rate plus an Applicable Margin. Applicable Margins were initially set at 0.75% for Base Rate loans and Swing Line Loans, and 1.75% for Eurodollar loans, and are subject to subsequent adjustment as defined in the agreement. Interest is payable quarterly for all loans in which a Base Rate is applied, and is payable either monthly, quarterly, or semi-annually for all loans in which a Eurodollar Rate is applied.

At January 28, 2017, the Company had $159,600 in principal outstanding under Revolving Loans, and had a net unused availability of $134,249. Borrowings under Revolving Loans beat interest at an average rate of 2.55% per annum. The Company had open Letters of Credit of $6,151 at January 28, 2017.

The ABL Facility contains certain financial covenants. The Company was in compliance with all financial covenants under the ABL Facility as of January 28, 2017.

Note 8. Warranties

The Company’s products generally carry explicit warranties that extend from several months to several years, based on terms that are generally accepted in the marketplace. Selected components (such as engines, transmissions, tires, etc.) included in the Company’s end products may include warranties from original equipment manufacturers (“OEM”). These OEM warranties are passed on to the end customer of the Company’s products, and the customer deals directly with the applicable OEM for any issues encountered on those components.

13

Changes in the Company’s warranty liability consisted of the following:

	Three Months Ended
	January 28, 2017			January 30, 2016
Balance at beginning of period	$	38,808		$	28,453
Warranty provisions		6,622			5,415
Settlements made		(8,153	)		(6,958	)
Warranties for current year acquisitions		570			—
Changes in liability of pre-existing warranties		84			472
Balance at end of period	$	37,931		$	27,382

Accrued warranty is classified in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as follows:

	January 28, 2017		October 29, 2016
Current liabilities	$	21,154	$	22,693
Other long-term liabilities		16,777		16,115
Total warranty liability	$	37,931	$	38,808

Provisions for estimated warranty and other related costs are recorded at the time of sale and are periodically adjusted to reflect actual experience. Certain warranty and other related claims involve matters of dispute that ultimately are resolved by negotiation, arbitration or litigation. At times, warranty issues arise that are beyond the scope of the Company’s historical experience. The potential liability for these issues is evaluated on a case by case basis.

Note 9. Employee Benefit Plan

The Company has a defined contribution 401(k) plan covering substantially all employees. The plan allows employees to defer up to 100% of their employment income (subject to annual contribution limits imposed by the I.R.S.) after all taxes and applicable benefit deductions. Each employee who elects to participate is eligible to receive Company matching contributions that are based on employee contributions to the plans, subject to certain limitations. Amounts expensed for the Company’s matching and discretionary contributions were $1,643 and $1,507 for the three months ended January 28, 2017 and January 30, 2016, respectively.

Note 10. Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities

Cash Flow Hedges: The Company is exposed to certain risks relating to its ongoing business operations. The primary risk related to cash flows, partially managed by using derivative instruments, is foreign currency exchange rate risk. Forward contracts on various foreign currencies are entered into to manage the foreign currency exchange rate risk on the collection of receivables denominated in foreign currencies. These derivatives typically require the exchange of a foreign currency for U.S. dollars at a fixed rate at a future date.

To protect against the reduction in value of forecasted foreign currency cash flows resulting from export sales, the Company has instituted a foreign currency cash flow hedging program. The Company hedges portions of its receivables denominated in foreign currencies with forward contracts. When the U.S. dollar weakens against foreign currencies, decreased foreign currency payments are offset by gains in the value of the forward contracts. Conversely, when the U.S. dollar strengthens against foreign currencies, increased foreign currency payments are offset by losses in the value of the forward contracts.

For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified into earnings in the same line item associated with the forecasted transaction and in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. The Company generally hedges its exposure to the variability in future cash flows for a maximum of 12 to 18 months.

The ineffective portion of cash flow hedges, which is the remaining gain or loss on the derivative instrument in excess of the cumulative change in the present value of future cash flows of the hedged item, if any, or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness, is recognized in earnings immediately during the current period as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

14

A net amount of $58 recorded as income in accumulated other comprehensive income is expected to be reclassified to earnings within the next 12 months. The Company had forward foreign exchange contracts with a gross notional value of $8,482 and $5,198 as of January 28, 2017 and October 29, 2016, respectively, designated as cash flow hedges.

Note 11. Shareholders’ Equity

At January 27, 2017, the Company’s certificate of incorporation allowed for the issuance of up to 46,000,000 Class A common shares and for the issuance of up to 43,200,000 Class B common shares. Concurrent with the closing of the Company’s IPO, the Company amended its certificate of incorporation to provide for the automatic reclassification of its Class A common stock and Class B common stock into a single class of common stock, of which 605,000,000 shares are designated as common stock, and 95,000,000 shares are designated as preferred stock and to effect an 80-for-one stock split.

Shareholder Rights: Prior to the Company’s IPO completed on February 1, 2017, all current shareholders of the Company were a party to the Amended Shareholders Agreement (the “Shareholders Agreement”) which governed the shareholders’ voting rights, right to transfer securities, rights in the event of a sale of the Company or other liquidity event and other special approval rights. Under the terms of the Shareholders Agreement, the Company was required (at the shareholder’s option) or had the option to purchase the shareholder’s common stock upon termination, disability, death or retirement if the shareholder was an employee. If an employee shareholder was terminated for cause or the employee shareholder departs for any reason other than death, disability or retirement, the purchase price of the common stock was the lesser of termination book value or cost. In the case of termination for any other reason and in the case of death, disability or retirement, the purchase price was a price per share equal to the fair market value as determined by the Company’s board of directors. In connection with the IPO, the Company entered into an amended and restated shareholders agreement with certain shareholders. The amended and restated shareholders agreement became effective upon completion of the IPO and replaced the Shareholders Agreement that was in effect immediately prior to the IPO.

Note 12. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per common share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding including contingently redeemable common stock. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding assuming dilution. The difference between basic EPS and diluted EPS is the result of the dilutive effect of outstanding stock options. The table below reconciles basic weighted-average common shares outstanding to diluted weighted-average shares outstanding for the three-month period ended January 28, 2017 and January 30, 2016:

	Three Months Ended
	January 28, 2017		January 30, 2016
Basic weighted-average common shares outstanding		51,360,163		52,506,201
Dilutive stock options		—		—
Diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding		51,360,163		52,506,201

The Company excludes stock options that have an anti-dilutive effect from its calculation of weighted-average shares outstanding assuming dilution. For the three months ended January 28, 2017 and January 30, 2016, there were 3,078,240 and 2,868,000 stock options, respectively, which were excluded from the calculation of diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding as the impact would have been anti-dilutive on earnings per share.

Note 13. Contingently Redeemable Common Stock

Prior to the Company’s IPO, shares of common stock held by employees were eligible to be put to the Company in accordance with the Shareholders Agreement if certain criteria (as defined in the Shareholders Agreement) were met and the former employee or his or her beneficiaries exercised the option to put the shares to the Company in accordance with the Shareholders Agreement. As these provisions were not certain of being met, the shares of common stock held by employees were considered contingently redeemable common stock and recorded as temporary equity on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet until the shares of common stock were either re-purchased by the Company or the put option expired. The put option expired 90 or 180 days after termination of employment, depending on the nature of the termination or upon the sale of the Company or an initial public offering of the Company’s common stock. The value of these shares of common stock were presented at fair value on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. Prior to the Company’s IPO, the fair value of the Company’s common stock was calculated by estimating the Company’s enterprise value by applying an earnings multiple to the Company’s Adjusted EBITDA over the previous 12 months, and deducting outstanding net debt.

15

When the put option was exercised or expired, the shares were re-measured at fair value on that date and reclassified from temporary equity to shareholders’ equity. Changes in the fair value of the contingently redeemable shares of common stock were recorded in retained earnings.

In connection with the IPO, the put option of employee-owned shares of common stock was eliminated, resulting in the reclassification of $35.4 million to additional paid-in capital and 1,607,760 shares to common shares outstanding.

Note 14. Stock Compensation

In April 2010, the Company’s board of directors approved the Allied Specialty Vehicles, Inc. 2010 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2010 Plan”). Under the 2010 Plan, key employees, including employees who may also be directors or officers of the Company, outside directors, key consultants and key contractors of the Company may be granted incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, and other share-based awards. The 2010 Plan provides for the granting of options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at not less than the fair market value of such shares on the date of grant. Stock options terminate not more than ten years from the date of grant. The 2010 Plan allows acceleration of options upon certain events. The Company recognizes compensation expense for stock options, nonvested stock and performance share awards over the requisite service period for vesting of the award, or to an employee’s eligible retirement date, if earlier and applicable. An aggregate of 8,000,000 shares were reserved for future awards under the 2010 Plan. At January 28, 2017, the Company had 4,449,179 remaining shares available for issuance under the 2010 Plan. With the approval of the 2016 Plan (defined below), the Company will no longer issue share-based awards under the 2010 Plan.

In January 2017, the Company’s board of directors approved the REV Group, Inc. 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”). Under the 2016 Plan, key employees, including employees who may also be directors or officers of the Company, outside directors, key consultants and key contractors of the Company may be granted incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, and other share-based awards. The 2016 Plan provides for the granting of options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at not less than the fair market value of such shares on the date of grant. Stock options terminate not more than ten years from the date of grant. The 2016 Plan allows acceleration of share awards upon certain events. The Company recognizes compensation expense for stock options, nonvested stock and performance share awards over the requisite service period for vesting of the award, or to an employee’s eligible retirement date, if earlier and applicable. An aggregate of 8,000,000 shares were reserved for future awards under the 2016 Plan. At January 28, 2017, the Company had 8,000,000 remaining shares available for issuance under the 2016 Plan.

Stock Option Awards: Stock options granted have a term of up to 10 years from the grant date. The vesting of these options are either immediate, upon a triggering event or over a period of time. Exercisability of the triggering event options is contingent upon the occurrence of a change in control of the Company, or in certain of the option grants, an initial public offering. The Company estimates the fair value of all stock option awards on the grant date by applying the Black-Scholes option-pricing valuation model. The application of this valuation model involves assumptions that are highly subjective, judgmental and sensitive in the determination of stock compensation cost. As a result of the Company’s IPO in January 2017, 1,109,240 equity stock options immediately vested. The Company recorded stock compensation expense of $4,352 resulting from the vesting of these stock options. As of January 28, 2017, the Company could potentially recognize $459 of stock compensation expense if certain performance targets were met or were expected by management to be achieved. As of January 28, 2017, the Company had $2,354 of unrecognized stock compensation expense related to time based vesting stock options.

During the three months ended January 28, 2017 and January 30, 2016, the Company recorded expense of $3,251 and $5,141, respectively, to redeem performance based stock options. The amount paid per share to redeem these stock options was equal to the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of redemption less the stock option exercise price.

As of January 28, 2017 and October 29, 2016, there were zero and 1,664,000 stock options outstanding, respectively, which were considered liability share awards as the underlying shares were eligible to be sold back to the Company as a result of put rights in the Shareholders Agreement, within a period of time which would not subject the shareholder to the risks and rewards of share ownership for a reasonable period of time. The fair value of the liability share awards was $0 and $9,117 at January 28, 2017 and October 29, 2016, respectively. Concurrent with the Company’s IPO, the Company’s Shareholders Agreement was terminated, and as such the put rights from that agreement were no longer available to the Company’s shareholders. As such, the fair value of vested outstanding liability share awards were reclassified to additional paid-in capital during the first quarter of 2017. In addition, upon completion of the Company’s IPO, 1,528,000 of outstanding liability option awards were vested. The vested portion of these outstanding options was re-measured at fair value based upon the $22.00 per share price of the Company’s IPO. The accelerated vesting of the liability awards and remeasurement of the liability to the $22.00 per share resulted in additional stock compensation expense of $16.2 million. The fair value of the liability share awards was $26.5 million on the date of the Company’s IPO.

Note 15. Restructuring Charges

In the first quarter of fiscal year 2016, the Company restructured some of its management functions in the Fire & Emergency segment and initiated the relocation of its Corporate office from Orlando, Florida to Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The Company recognized $2,807 of costs associated with this re-organization and office relocation, which included severance, lease termination and other associated expenses. At January 28, 2017, $228 of the restructuring costs remain unpaid and are included in other current liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2016, the Company implemented a strategic plan to relocate production of Goshen buses to its Salina, KS and Imlay City, MI facilities. Accordingly, $824 of the costs associated with the relocation, including but not limited to personnel costs, including severance and bonuses were recorded during the three months ended January 28, 2017 and $714 of such costs were recognized in fiscal year 2016. At January 28, 2017, $96 of the restructuring costs remain unpaid and are included in other current liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

A summary of the changes in the Company’s restructuring liability is as follows:

	2016 – Companywide			Goshen Bus			Total
Balance at October 29, 2016	$	567		$	314		$	881
Expenses Incurred		—			864			864
Amounts Paid		(339	)		(1,082	)		(1,421	)
Balance at January 28, 2017	$	228		$	96		$	324

Note 16. Income Taxes

For interim financial reporting, the Company estimates its annual effective tax rate based on the projected income for its entire fiscal year and records a provision (benefit) for income taxes on a quarterly basis based on the estimated annual effective income tax rate, adjusted for any discrete tax items.

The Company’s effective income tax rate was 37.1% and 42.1% for the three months ended January 28, 2017 and January 30, 2016, respectively. The decrease in the Company’s effective income tax rate for the three months ended January 28, 2017 relative to the prior year relates primarily to a prior year discrete benefit for a research tax credit resulting from a federal tax law change. The effective income tax rate for the three months ended January 28, 2017 as compared to the U.S. statutory income tax rate was favorably impacted by income tax incentives for U.S. manufacturing and research activities.

The Company periodically evaluates its valuation allowance requirements in light of changing facts and circumstances, and may adjust its deferred tax asset valuation allowances accordingly. It is reasonably possible that the Company will either add to, or reverse a portion of its existing deferred tax asset valuation allowances in the future. Such changes in the deferred tax asset valuation allowances will be reflected in the current operations through the Company’s effective income tax rate.

The Company’s liability for unrecognized tax benefits, including interest and penalties, was $3,057 as of January 28, 2017 and $2,895 as of October 29, 2016, and was included in other long-term liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision (benefit) for income taxes in its consolidated statement of operations.

The Company regularly assesses the likelihood of an adverse outcome resulting from examinations to determine the adequacy of its tax reserves. As of January 28, 2017, the Company believes that it is more likely than not that the tax positions it has taken will be sustained upon the resolution of its audits resulting in no material impact on its consolidated financial position and the results of operations and cash flows. However, the final determination with respect to any tax audits, and any related litigation, could be materially different from the company’s estimates and/or from its historical income tax provisions and income tax liabilities and could have a material effect on operating results and/or cash flows in the periods for which that determination is made. In addition, future period earnings may be adversely impacted by litigation costs, settlements, penalties, and/or interest assessments related to income tax examinations.

Note 17. Commitments and Contingencies

Market Risks: The Company is contingently liable under bid, performance and specialty bonds and has open standby letters of credit issued by the Company’s banks in favor of third parties as follows:

	January 28, 2017		October 29, 2016
Performance, bid and specialty bonds	$	158,324	$	156,972
Open standby letters of credit		6,151		6,151
Total	$	164,475	$	163,123

Chassis Contingent Liabilities: The Company obtains certain vehicle chassis from automobile manufacturers under converter pool agreements. These agreements generally provide that the manufacturer will supply chassis at the Company’s various production facilities under the terms and conditions set forth in the agreement. The manufacturer does not transfer the certificate of origin to the Company and, accordingly, the chassis are treated as consigned inventory of the automobile manufacturer. Upon being put into production, the Company becomes obligated to pay the manufacturer for the chassis. Chassis are typically converted and delivered to customers within 90 to 120 days of receipt. If the chassis are not converted within this timeframe of delivery, the Company generally purchases the chassis and records the inventory or the Company is obligated to begin paying an interest charge on this inventory until purchased. The Company’s contingent liability under such agreements for future chassis inventory purchases was $70,456 and $77,587 at January 28, 2017 and October 29, 2016, respectively.

Repurchase Commitments: The Company has entered into repurchase agreements with certain lending institutions. The repurchase commitments are on an individual unit basis with a term from the date it is financed by the lending institution through payment date by the dealer or other customer, generally not exceeding two years. The Company’s outstanding obligations under such agreements were $228,436 and $213,657 as of January 28, 2017 and October 29, 2016, respectively. This value represents the gross value of all vehicles under repurchase agreements and does not take into consideration proceeds that would be received upon resale of repossessed vehicles, which would be used to reduce the Company’s ultimate net liability. Such agreements are customary in the industries in which the Company operates and the Company’s exposure to loss under such agreements is limited by the potential loss on the resale value of the inventory which is required to be repurchased. Losses incurred under such arrangements have not been significant and the Company expects this pattern to continue into the future. The reserve for losses included in other liabilities on contracts outstanding at January 28, 2017 and October 29, 2016 is immaterial.

Guarantee Arrangements: The Company is party to multiple agreements whereby it guarantees indebtedness of others, including losses under loss pool agreements. The Company estimated that its maximum loss exposure under these contracts was $626 at January 28, 2017 and October 29, 2016. Under the terms of these and various related agreements and upon the occurrence of certain events, the Company generally has the ability to, among other things, take possession of the underlying collateral. If the financial condition of the customers and/or dealers were to deteriorate and result in their inability to make payments, then additional accruals may be required. While the Company does not expect to experience losses under these agreements that are materially in excess of the amounts reserved, it cannot provide any assurance that the financial condition of the third parties will not deteriorate resulting in the third party’s inability to meet their obligations.

In the event that this occurs, the Company cannot guarantee that the collateral underlying the agreements will be sufficient to avoid losses materially in excess of the amounts reserved. Any losses under these guarantees would generally be mitigated by the value of any underlying collateral, including financed equipment, and are generally subject to the finance company’s ability to provide the Company clear title to foreclosed equipment and other conditions. During periods of economic weakness, collateral values generally decline and can contribute to higher exposure to losses.

Other Matters: The Company is subject to certain legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. Although the final results of all such matters and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that the ultimate resolution of all such matters and claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Actual results could vary, among other things, due to the uncertainties involved in litigation.

Note 18. Related Party Transactions

During the three months ended January 28, 2017 and January 30, 2016, the Company was charged expenses from its primary equity holder in the amount of $131 and $25, respectively. These expenses are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

18

Certain production facilities and offices for two of the Company’s subsidiaries are leased from related parties owned by certain members of management. Rent expense under these arrangements totaled $160 and $129 for the three months ended January 28, 2017 and January 30, 2016, respectively.

The Company engages with an information technology, software and consulting company in which the Company’s CEO has a material equity interest. Services being provided include software development and installation. The Company made payments of $1,389 and $665 during the three months ended January 28, 2017 and January 30, 2016, respectively, to this information technology, software and consulting company. These costs are recorded in property, plant and equipment on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

Note 19. Business Segment Information

The Company is organized into three reportable segments based on management’s process for making operating decisions, allocating capital and measuring performance, and based on the similarity of products, customers served, common use of facilities, and economic characteristics. The Company’s segments are as follows:

Fire & Emergency: This segment includes KME, E-One, Inc., American Emergency Vehicles, Inc., Leader Emergency Vehicles, Inc., Horton Enterprises, Inc. and Wheeled Coach, Inc. These business units manufacture and market commercial and custom fire and emergency vehicles primarily for fire departments, airports, other governmental units, contractors, hospitals and other care providers in the United States and other countries.

Commercial: This segment includes Collins Bus, Champion Bus, Inc., Goshen Coach, Inc., ENC, ElDorado National (Kansas), Inc., Eldorado Mobility, Capacity and Lay-Mor. Collins Bus manufactures, markets and distributes school buses, normally referred to as Type A school buses, as well as shuttle buses used for churches, transit authorities, hotels and resorts, retirement centers and other similar uses. Champion Bus, Inc., Goshen Coach, Inc., ENC, ElDorado National (Kansas), Inc. and Eldorado Mobility, Inc. manufacture, market and distribute shuttle buses and mobility vans for transit, airport car rental and hotel/motel shuttles, tour and charter operations and other uses under well-established brand names such as under Krystal and Federal Coach. Capacity manufactures, markets and distributes trucks used in terminal type operations, i.e., rail yards, warehouses, rail terminals and shipping terminals/ports. Lay-Mor manufactures, markets and distributes industrial sweepers for both the commercial and rental markets.

Recreation: This segment includes REV Recreation Group, Inc. (“RRG”), Goldshield Fiberglass, Inc. (“Goldshield”) and Renegade, and their respective manufacturing facilities, service and parts divisions. RRG primarily manufactures, markets and distributes Class A and Class C mobile recreational vehicles in both gas and diesel models. Goldshield manufactures, markets and distributes fiberglass reinforced molded parts to a diverse cross section of OEM and other commercial and industrial customers, including various components for RRG, which is one of Goldshield’s primary customers.

In considering the financial performance of the business, the chief operating decision maker analyzes the primary financial performance measure of Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income for the relevant period before depreciation and amortization, interest expense and provision (benefit) for income taxes, as adjusted for transaction expenses, sponsor expenses, restructuring costs, and stock based compensation, which the Company believes are not indicative of the Company’s ongoing operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure defined by U.S. GAAP, but is computed using amounts that are determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. A reconciliation of this performance measure to loss before benefit for income taxes is included below.

The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors and used by management for measuring profitability because the measure excludes the impact of certain items which management believes has less bearing on the Company’s core operating performance. The Company believes that utilizing Adjusted EBITDA allows for a more meaningful comparison of operating fundamentals between companies within the Company’s industry by eliminating the impact of capital structure and taxation differences between the companies.

The Company also adjusts for exceptional items which are determined to be those that in management’s judgment need to be disclosed by virtue of their size, nature or incidence, which include non-cash items and items settled in cash. In determining whether an event or transaction is exceptional, management considers quantitative as well as qualitative factors such as the frequency or predictability of occurrence. This is consistent with the way that financial performance is measured by management and reported to our Board of Directors, assists in providing a meaningful analysis of the Company’s operating performance and used as a measurement in incentive compensation for management.

For purposes of measuring performance of its business segments, the Company does not allocate to individual business segments costs or items that are of a corporate nature. The caption “corporate and other” includes corporate office expenses, results of insignificant operations, intersegment eliminations and income and expense not allocated to reportable segments.

19

Identifiable assets of the business segments exclude general corporate assets, which principally consist of cash and cash equivalents, certain property, plant and equipment and certain other assets pertaining to corporate activities.

Intersegment sales generally include amounts invoiced by a segment for work performed for another segment. Amounts are based on actual work performed and agreed-upon pricing which is intended to be reflective of the contribution made by the supplying business segment. All intersegment transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Overview

REV is a leading designer, manufacturer and distributor of specialty vehicles and related aftermarket parts and services. We provide customized vehicle solutions for applications including: essential needs (ambulances, fire apparatus, school buses, mobility vans and municipal transit buses), industrial and commercial (terminal trucks, cut-away buses and street sweepers) and consumer leisure (RVs and luxury buses). Our brand portfolio consists of 27 well-established principal vehicle brands including many of the most recognizable names within our served markets. Several of our brands pioneered their specialty vehicle product categories and date back more than 50 years. We believe that in most of our markets, we hold the first or second market share position and approximately 62% of our net sales during the first quarter of fiscal year 2017 came from products where we believe we hold such share positions.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2017, our sales were $442.9 million, which was $70.2 million, or 18.8%, greater than the prior year. This increase in net sales was due to increases in our Fire & Emergency and Recreation segments. In our Fire & Emergency segment, we expect sales to increase in fiscal 2017 at a rate in line with or slightly better than the sales percent increase for the overall company due to increased market demand, as a result of the full year impact of the KME acquisition (net sales attributable to KME in fiscal 2016, which was acquired in April 2016, were $97.2 million) and strong end-market demand across both our fire and ambulance product lines. In our Commercial segment for fiscal 2017, we expect sales to increase at a rate below the sales percent increase for the entire company due primarily to increases in sales across all of our Commercial product categories in line with their end markets and targeted individual product market share gains expectations. In our Recreation segment, we expect sales to increase in fiscal 2017 versus fiscal 2016 at a rate in line with the sales percent increase for the overall company and as a result of higher unit sales volume in both Class A and Class C RV units due to end market demand growth, continued growth in market share across both RV classes and as a result of the recent Renegade acquisition.

Gross profit and gross margin percentage were $47.5 million and 10.7%, respectively, during the first quarter of fiscal 2017, which were $12.6 million and 130 basis points higher than the first quarter of fiscal 2016. These improvements in gross profit and gross margin percentage were due to realized benefits from our ongoing sourcing initiatives, and a more profitable mix of our sales in our Fire & Emergency and Commercial segments, sales mix shift in our Recreation segment toward mid-line Class A diesel products, lower discounting and other strategic pricing actions.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) in the first quarter of fiscal 2017 were $56.5 million which is an increase of $29.4 million compared to the prior year first quarter. This increase was primarily due to $25.5 million of stock compensation expense primarily resulting from the impact of our initial public offering (“IPO”) in the first quarter of 2017. Stock compensation expense in the first quarter 2017 was $19.8 million higher than the first quarter of fiscal 2016. In addition, SG&A expenses were higher in the first quarter of fiscal 2017 due to higher payroll and employee benefits costs.

22

Amortization of intangibles was $2.6 million for the three months ended January 28, 2017, compared to $2.2 million for the three months ended January 30, 2016. The increase in amortization expenses was due primarily to the amortization of the intangible assets recorded as part of the acquisition of KME in April 2016 and Renegade in December 2016. As a result of these acquisitions, as well as amortization of previously acquired intangible assets, the Company anticipates the quarterly run rate for intangible asset amortization to approximate $2.5 million per quarter for the remaining quarters of fiscal 2017.

Interest expense was $7.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017 which is an increase of $0.8 million compared to the first quarter of 2016. Interest expense during the quarter was comprised of the cost of debt for the Company’s Senior Notes, ABL Facility, chassis pool interest expense, and interest paid to customers for advance payments. The increase in interest expense during the first quarter of fiscal 2017 versus the first quarter of fiscal 2016 was primarily due to higher average borrowings under our ABL Facility, which was used to fund the Renegade acquisition and higher capital expenditures in the first quarter 2017 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2016. As a result of the use of proceeds from our IPO to pay down debt, we expect interest expense for fiscal 2017 to be lower than fiscal year 2016 and to approximate $2 to $3 million per quarter starting in the second fiscal quarter of 2017. On February 16, 2017 we paid off the remaining outstanding balance of our Senior Notes, and as a result we will incur a one-time charge of approximately $11.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2017 related to the prepayment premium and write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs related to this redemption.

Our effective income tax rate for the first quarter was a benefit of 37.1%, which approximates our normalized rate.

Diluted net loss per common share was ($0.26) for the first quarter of 2017 compared to a loss of ($0.06) in the first quarter of fiscal 2016. Adjusted net income per common share was $0.11 per share for the first quarter of 2017, which is an 57.1% increase from adjusted net income per common share of $0.07 in the first quarter of fiscal 2016. A reconciliation of net loss to adjusted net income is included in section “Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income” below.

Net loss was $13.3 million for the three months ended January 28, 2017, compared to a net loss of $3.0 million for three months ended January 30, 2016.

Adjusted EBITDA was $21.1 million for the first quarter 2017, an increase of $6.1 million or 40.4%, from $15.0 million for the first quarter fiscal 2016. This increase in Adjusted EBITDA in the first quarter of fiscal 2017 was the result of higher net sales and gross margin from all three of our business segments. A detailed reconciliation of net loss to Adjusted EBITDA is included in section “Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income” below.

Capital expenditures for the first quarter of fiscal 2017 were $18.6 million, which primarily was comprised of expenditures for our ERP implementation and the continued rollout of our parts on line sales infrastructure.

Segments

We serve a diversified customer base primarily in the United States through the following segments:

Fire & Emergency – The Fire & Emergency segment sells fire apparatus equipment under the Emergency One (“E-ONE”) and Kovatch Mobile Equipment (“KME”) brands and ambulances under the American Emergency Vehicles (“AEV”), Horton Emergency Vehicles (“Horton”), Leader Emergency Vehicles (“Leader”), Marque, McCoy Miller, Road Rescue, Wheeled Coach and Frontline brands. We believe we are the largest manufacturer by unit volume of fire and emergency vehicles in the United States and have one of the industry’s broadest portfolios of products including Type I ambulances (aluminum body mounted on a heavy truck-style chassis), Type II ambulances (van conversion ambulance typically favored for non-emergency patient transportation), Type III ambulances (aluminum body mounted on a van-style chassis), pumpers (fire apparatus on a custom or commercial chassis with a water pump and small tank to extinguish fires), ladder trucks (fire apparatus with stainless steel or aluminum ladders), tanker trucks and rescue and other vehicles. Each of our individual brands is distinctly positioned and targets certain price and feature points in the market such that dealers often carry and customers often buy more than one REV Fire & Emergency product line.

Commercial – Our Commercial segment serves the bus market through the following principal brands: Collins Bus, Goshen Coach, ENC, ElDorado National, Krystal Coach, Federal Coach, Champion and World Trans. We serve the terminal truck market through the Capacity brand, the sweeper market through the Lay-Mor brand and the mobility market through the ElDorado Mobility brand. We are a leading producer of small- and medium-sized buses, Type A school buses, transit buses, terminal trucks and street sweepers in the United States. Our products in the Commercial segment include cut-away buses (customized body built on various types and sizes of commercial chassis), transit buses (large municipal buses where we build our own chassis and body), luxury buses (bus-style limo or high-end luxury conversions), street sweepers (three- and four-wheel versions used in road construction activities), terminal trucks (specialized vehicle which moves freight in warehouses or intermodal yards and ports), Type A school buses (small school bus built on commercial chassis), and mobility vans (mini-van converted to be utilized by wheelchair passengers). Within each market segment, we produce a large number of customized configurations to address the diverse needs of our customers.

Recreation – Our Recreation segment serves the RV market through five principal brands: American Coach, Fleetwood RV, Monaco Coach, Holiday Rambler and Renegade. We believe some of these brands are among the longest standing, most recognized brands in the RV industry. Under these five brands, REV provides a variety of highly recognized models such as: American Eagle, Dynasty, Discovery, Bounder and Pace Arrow, among others. Our products in the Recreation segment currently include only Class A motorized RVs (motorhomes built on a heavy duty chassis with either diesel or gas engine configurations), Class C motorized RVs (motorhomes built on a commercial truck or van chassis) and a line of heavy-duty, special application trailers. The Recreation segment also includes Goldshield Fiberglass, which produces a wide range of custom molded fiberglass products for the RV and broader industrial markets. In December 2016, we acquired Renegade RV, a leader in the “Super C” segment of the recreational vehicle (“RV”) market and producer of a line of heavy-duty special application trailers.

Factors Affecting Our Performance

The primary factors affecting our results of operations include:

General Economic Conditions

Our business is impacted by the U.S. economic environment, employment levels, consumer confidence, municipal spending, changes in interest rates and instability in securities markets around the world, among other factors. In particular, changes in the U.S. economic climate can impact demand in key end markets.

RV purchases are discretionary in nature and therefore sensitive to the availability of financing, consumer confidence, unemployment levels, levels of disposable income and changing levels of consumer home equity, among other factors. The 2008 recession caused consumers to reduce their discretionary spending, which negatively affected sales volumes for RVs. Terminal truck sales volumes are also impacted by economic conditions and industrial output, as these factors impact our end-market customers for these products, which include shipping ports, trucking/distribution hubs and rail terminal operators. Although RV and terminal truck sales have increased in recent years, these markets are affected by general U.S. and global economic conditions, which create risks that future economic downturns will further reduce consumer demand and negatively impact our sales.

While less economically sensitive than the Recreation segment, our Fire & Emergency and Commercial segments are also impacted by the overall economic environment. Local tax revenues are an important source of funding for fire and emergency response departments. Reduced municipal tax revenues resulting from the 2008 recession led to a decline in these markets. As fire and emergency products and school buses are typically a larger cost item for municipalities and their service life is relatively long, their purchase is more deferrable, which can result in reduced demand for our products.

A decrease in employment levels, consumer confidence or the availability of financing, or other adverse economic events, or the failure of actual demand for our products to meet our estimates, could negatively affect the demand for our products. Any decline in overall customer demand in markets in which we operate could have a material adverse effect on our operating performance.

Cost Management Initiatives

Our recent operating results reflect the impact of our ongoing initiatives to lower our operating costs to expand our profit margins. Purchased materials, including chassis, represent our largest component of costs of sales. We operate a centralized strategic procurement organization dedicated to reducing our overall level of materials spend across our three segments, while simplifying and standardizing suppliers and parts.

Impact of Acquisitions

For the past several years, a significant component of our growth has been the addition of businesses or business units through acquisitions. We typically incur upfront costs as we integrate acquired businesses and implement our operating philosophy at newly acquired companies, including consolidation of supplies and materials, changes to production processes at acquired facilities to implement manufacturing improvements and other restructuring initiatives. The benefits of these integration efforts may not positively impact our financial results until subsequent periods. Operational and financial integration of our recently acquired businesses could be ongoing.

In accordance with GAAP, we recognize acquired assets and liabilities at fair value. This includes the recognition of identified intangible assets and goodwill which, in the case of definite-life intangible assets, are then amortized over their expected useful lives, which typically results in an increase in amortization expense. In addition, assets acquired and liabilities assumed generally include tangible assets, as well as contingent assets and liabilities.

Impact of Initial Public Offering

Prior to our IPO, our stockholders were party to a shareholders agreement that was amended and restated in its entirety as a result of the IPO. That shareholders agreement provided for, among other things, an employee stockholder to sell their stock back to the Company when he or she is terminated by the Company without cause or for good reason, death, disability, retirement or dissolution. This provision required us to recognize the value of these outstanding shares as temporary equity in our consolidated statement of operations, with changes in the fair value recorded as an adjustment to retained earnings. The aforementioned rights of the employee stockholder to sell his or her shares of common stock will lapse upon completion of an initial public offering and, as such, subsequent to this offering, those shares which were held by an employee and remain outstanding were reclassified to shareholders’ equity on our consolidated balance sheet. As a result of the IPO, the fair value of our common stock held by employees subject to the shareholders agreement was $35.4 million. This amount was reclassified to additional paid in capital on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of January 28, 2017.

24

Stock Compensation Expense

As a result of our IPO, outstanding stock options which had previously been recorded as a liability on the Company’s balance sheet were reclassified to permanent equity. On the date of the IPO, vesting of 846,000 of these liability awards were accelerated, and there were 1,528,000 of vested liability option awards. All liability option awards were re-measured at fair value based upon the offering price of $22.00 per share. Also as a result of the IPO, the Company recorded a charge of $13.3 million due to the change in fair value of the liability option awards and of $8.9 million due to stock options which immediately vested.

Key Performance Indicators

In assessing the performance of our business, we consider a variety of operational and financial measures. These measures include net sales, units sold, selling, general and administrative expenses, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income. In assessing segment performance, our chief executive officer, as the chief operating decision maker, analyzes the primary financial measure of Adjusted EBITDA.

Net Sales and Units Sold

We evaluate net sales and units sold because it helps us measure the impact of economic trends, the effectiveness of our marketing, the response of customers to new product launches and model changes, and the effect of competition over a given period. We recognize revenue for sales of completed vehicles upon shipment or delivery and acceptance by the dealer or customer as specified by the relevant dealer or customer purchase order.

Our units represent a wide range of products at various price points, with higher value-added units at higher price points typically resulting in higher gross margins. Additionally, large orders of similar units typically provide operational efficiencies that contribute to higher gross margins. As such, our management also utilizes unit volume sales mix to analyze our business.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

We evaluate our selling, general and administrative expenses in order to identify areas where we can further invest or create savings. Such investments or spending reductions could include items such as third-party services and cost of administrative processes. These expenses consist primarily of personnel costs, sales and marketing expenses, as well as other expenses associated with facilities unrelated to our manufacturing and supply chain network, internal management expenses and expenses for finance, information systems, legal, business development, human resources, purchasing and other administrative costs.

The components of our selling, general and administrative expenses may not be identical to those of our competitors. As a result, data in this document regarding our operating and administrative expenses may not be comparable to similar expenses of our competitors. We expect that our selling, general and administrative expenses will increase in future periods as we grow our businesses and due to additional legal, accounting, insurance and other expenses we expect to incur as a result of being a public company.

Net Sales. Consolidated net sales were $442.9 million for the three months ended January 28, 2017, an increase of $70.2 million, or 18.8%, from $372.8 million for the three months ended January 30, 2016. The increase in consolidated net sales was primarily due to an increase in net sales of $57.0 million and $22.3 million in the Fire & Emergency and Recreation segments, respectively, offset by a decrease in net sales of $10.2 million in the Commercial segment. The increase in Fire & Emergency segment net sales were due to higher fire apparatus unit volumes, $35.8 million of net sales from KME, which was acquired in April 2016, and higher average selling prices for both fire trucks and ambulances. The increase in net sales in the Recreation segment was primarily due to higher unit sales volumes in its Class A mid-range diesel product and Class C vehicles. The decrease in Commercial segment net sales was primarily due to lower shuttle bus unit volume compared to the prior year period.

Cost of Sales. Consolidated cost of sales as a percentage of net sales was 89.3% for the three months ended January 28, 2017 as compared to 90.6% for the three months ended January 30, 2016. The decrease in consolidated cost of sales, as a percentage of net sales, was primarily due to a decrease in manufacturing costs in all three segments. The aggregate reduction in cost of sales, as a percentage of net sales, for the Company was primarily due to net reductions in the costs of materials resulting from specific sourcing initiatives and the benefits of higher production volumes. In addition, cost of sales in the first quarter 2017 was lower as a percent of net sales due to lower sales discounts provided for certain vehicle classes.

Gross Profit. Consolidated gross profit was $47.5 million for the three months ended January 28, 2017, an increase of $12.6 million, or 36.0% from $34.9 million for the three months ended January 30, 2016. Consolidated gross profit, as a percentage of net sales, was 10.7% and 9.4% for the three months ended January 28, 2017 and January 30, 2016, respectively. The increase in gross profit, as a percentage of net sales, was due to the combination of higher net sales and lower cost of sales described above.

Selling, General and Administrative. Consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses were $56.5 million for the three months ended January 28, 2017, an increase of $29.3 million, or 108.4%, from $27.1 million for the three months ended January 30, 2016. Selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of sales, were 12.8% and 7.3% for the three months ended January 28, 2017 and January 30, 2016, respectively. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was due primarily to increased stock-based compensation expense during the quarter. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended January 28, 2017 included $25.5 million of stock-based compensation expense, of which $13.3 million was for the remeasurement of liability awards to our IPO share price, $8.9 million was related to the accelerated vesting of liability awards and stock options resulting from the completion of our IPO and $3.3 million was related to the redemption of performance based stock options during the three months ended January 28, 2017.

26

Research and Development. Consolidated research and development costs were $1.2 million for the three months ended January 28, 2017, an increase of $0.1 million, or 5.2% from $1.1 million for the three months ended January 30, 2016.

Restructuring. Consolidated restructuring costs were $0.9 million for the three months ended January 28, 2017, compared to $3.0 million in the three months ended January 30, 2016. In the first quarter of fiscal year 2016, the Company restructured some of its management functions in the Fire & Emergency segment and initiated the relocation of its Corporate office from Orlando, Florida to Milwaukee, Wisconsin. In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2016, the Company implemented a plan to relocate production of Goshen Coach buses from its Elkhart, Indiana facility to its facilities in Salina, Kansas and Imlay City, Michigan and the relocation of our Eldorado mobility van production facility from Salina, Kansas to Longview, Texas.

Amortization of Intangibles. Consolidated amortization of intangibles was $2.6 million for the three months ended January 28, 2017, compared to $2.2 million for the three months ended January 30, 2016. The increase in amortization expenses was due primarily to the amortization of the intangible assets recorded as part of the acquisition of KME in April 2016 and Renegade in December 2016.

Interest Expense. Consolidated interest expense was $7.5 million for the three months ended January 28, 2017, an increase of $0.8 million, or 11.8% from $6.7 million for the three months ended January 30, 2016, respectively. Interest expense increased primarily due to increased borrowings under the ABL revolving credit facility to fund a business acquisition and higher capital expenditures in fiscal years 2016 and 2017.

Income Taxes. Consolidated income tax benefit was $7.8 million for the three months ended January 28, 2017, an increase of $5.6 million from a $2.2 million benefit for the three months ended January 30, 2016, respectively. The effective income tax rate was 37.1% and 42.1% for the three months ended January 28, 2017 and January 30, 2016, respectively. The decrease in the Company’s effective income tax rate for the three months ended January 28, 2017 relative to the prior year relates primarily to a prior year discrete benefit for federal research tax credit resulting from a tax law change.

Net Loss. Consolidated net loss was $13.3 million for the three months ended January 28, 2017, an increase in loss of $10.3 million, or 342.0% from a net loss of $3.0 million for the three months ended January 30, 2016.

Adjusted EBITDA. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA was $21.1 million for the three months ended January 28, 2017, an increase of $6.1 million, or 40.4%, from $15.0 million for the three months ended January 30, 2016. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to an increase in gross profit, offset partially by an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses.

Adjusted Net Income. Consolidated Adjusted Net Income was $5.7 million for the three months ended January 28, 2017, an increase of $1.7 million, or 44.5% from $3.9 million for the three months ended January 30, 2016.

Fire & Emergency Segment

	Three Months Ended				Increase (Decrease)
($ in thousands)	January 28, 2017		January 30, 2016		$		%
Net sales	$	185,371	$	128,356	$	57,015		44.4	%
Adjusted EBITDA		16,713		15,332		1,381		9.0	%

Net Sales. Fire & Emergency (“F&E”) segment net sales were $185.4 million for the three months ended January 28, 2017, an increase of $57.0 million, or 44.4%, from $128.4 million for the three months ended January 30, 2016. Net sales of fire apparatus increased $45.8 million compared to the prior year period, due primarily to net sales of $35.8 million from KME, which was acquired in April 2016, as well as net sales of $14.2 million from the F&E RTC, which was formerly known as the Hall-Mark RTC which was acquired in November 2015. Net sales of ambulance units increased $11.2 million compared to the prior year period due primarily to sales mix of higher content modular units, offset by lower unit sales volume.

Adjusted EBITDA. F&E segment Adjusted EBITDA was $16.7 million for the three months ended January 28, 2017, an increase of $1.4 million, or 9.0%, from $15.3 million for the three months ended January 30, 2016. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to increased net sales from the acquired KME and the RTC businesses, mix shift toward higher content fire apparatus and modular ambulance vehicles, and operational improvements. These Adjusted EBITDA increases were partially offset by an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses.

Commercial Segment

	Three Months Ended				Increase (Decrease)
($ in thousands)	January 28, 2017		January 30, 2016		$			%
Net sales	$	130,221	$	140,450	$	(10,229	)		(7.3	)%
Adjusted EBITDA		8,174		5,178		2,996			57.9	%

Net Sales. Commercial segment net sales were $130.2 million for the three months ended January 28, 2017, a decrease of $10.2 million, or 7.3%, from $140.5 million for the three months ended January 30, 2016. The decrease in net sales was due primarily to a decrease in shuttle bus units sold compared to the prior year period, partially offset by higher sales of Type A school buses and transit buses compared to the prior year period. This was also partially offset by higher average realized pricing compared to the prior year period, due to sales mix.

Adjusted EBITDA. Commercial segment Adjusted EBITDA was $8.2 million for the three months ended January 28, 2017, an increase of $3.0 million, or 57.9%, from $5.2 million for the three months ended January 30, 2016. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to increased average realized pricing, a shift in sales mix toward Type A school buses and transit buses in the quarter, as well as lower material costs. These increases were partially offset by reduced shuttle bus unit volume compared to the prior year and an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses.

Recreation Segment

	Three Months Ended					Increase (Decrease)
($ in thousands)	January 28, 2017		January 30, 2016			$		%
Net sales	$	128,870	$	106,535		$	22,335		21.0	%
Adjusted EBITDA		2,773		(1,798	)		4,571		254.2	%

Net Sales. Recreation segment net sales were $128.9 million for the three months ended January 28, 2017, an increase of $22.3 million, or 21.0%, from $106.5 million for the three months ended January 30, 2016. The increase in net sales was due primarily to an increase average selling prices, lower sales discounts and an increase in unit volume. The increase in average realized pricing was due primarily to a higher mix of sales of our Class A diesel units, which typically have higher sales prices, compared to the prior year period. The increase in unit volume was due primarily to an increase in Class A diesel and Class C units sold in the first quarter fiscal 2017 versus the first quarter 2016. Excluding the impact of the Renegade acquisition on December 30, 2016, the Recreation segment net sales increased 16.1% in the first quarter of 2017 versus the same period in the prior year.

Adjusted EBITDA. Recreation segment Adjusted EBITDA was $2.8 million for the three months ended January 28, 2017, an increase of $4.6 million, or 254.2%, from negative ($1.8) million for the three months ended January 30, 2016. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to an increase in gross profit and reduced selling, general and administrative expenses. The increase in gross profit was due to higher unit sales volumes, lower cost of materials and higher average selling prices resulting from product mix and lower sales discounts on units sold during the first quarter 2017. The acquisition of Renegade did not have a material impact on the segment’s Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2017.

Backlog

Backlog represents orders received from dealers or directly from end customers. Backlog does not include purchase options or verbal orders. The following table presents a summary of our backlog by segment:

					Increase (Decrease)
($ in thousands)	January 28, 2017		October 29, 2016		$		%
Fire & Emergency	$	577,074	$	550,769	$	26,305		4.8	%
Commercial		227,512		226,067		1,445		0.6	%
Recreation		107,653		80,420		27,233		33.9	%
Total Backlog	$	912,239	$	857,256	$	54,983		6.4	%

Each of our three segments has a backlog of new vehicle orders that generally extends out from two to twelve months in duration. Our businesses take orders from our dealers and end customers that are evidenced by a firm purchase order for delivery of one or many specialty vehicles with a given specification over a period of time. These firm orders are placed in our backlog and reported at the aggregate selling prices, net of discounts or allowances, at the time the purchase order is received. We do not include verbal commitments or promised orders in our reported backlog. As of January 28, 2017, our backlog was $912.2 million compared to $857.3 million as of October 29, 2016. The increase in Recreation backlog was partially due to the acquisition of Renegade. We expect that our current backlog will be produced and sold within the next 12 months following January 28, 2017.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

Our primary requirements for liquidity and capital are working capital, inventory management, acquiring machinery and equipment, acquiring and building manufacturing facilities, the improvement and expansion of existing manufacturing facilities, debt service and general corporate needs. Historically, these cash requirements have been met through cash provided by operating activities, cash and cash equivalents and borrowings under our ABL Facility.

We believe that our sources of liquidity and capital will be sufficient to finance our continued operations, growth strategy, cash dividends and additional expenses we expect to incur as a public company. However, we cannot assure you that our cash provided by operating activities, cash and cash equivalents or cash available under our ABL Facility will be sufficient to meet our future needs. If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flows from operations in the future, and if availability under our ABL Facility is not sufficient due to the size of our borrowing base or other external factors, we may have to obtain additional financing. If we obtain additional capital by issuing equity, the interests of our existing stockholders will be diluted. If we incur additional indebtedness, that indebtedness may contain significant financial and other covenants that may significantly restrict our operations. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain refinancing or additional financing on favorable terms or at all.

Working capital at January 28, 2017 (defined as current assets (excluding cash) minus current liabilities) was $251.6 million compared to $187.3 million at October 29, 2016. The increase in working capital was due to the normal seasonal increase during the first half of the fiscal year as the Company builds toward its largest volume quarters in the second half of the year. This increase in the first quarter 2017 was primarily due to an increase in inventory, accounts receivable and cash on-hand at January 28, 2017 compared to October 29, 2016.

Long-term debt, excluding current maturities, at January 28, 2017 was $336.0 million compared to $256.0 million at October 29, 2016. Long-term debt increased primarily due to the increase in working capital described above, increased borrowings to fund the acquisition of Renegade in December 2016 and higher capital expenditures in fiscal years 2016 and in the first quarter 2017. Subsequent to the end of the first quarter 2017, the Company received net proceeds from the completion of its initial public offering in the amount of $254.4 million. These proceeds were used to redeem the remaining outstanding balance of its Senior Notes as well as partially pay down the outstanding balance on its ABL revolving credit facility.

Cash Flow

The following table shows summary cash flows for the three months ended January 28, 2017 and January 30, 2016:

	Three Months Ended
(in thousands)	January 28, 2017			January 30, 2016
Net cash (used in) provided by operating activities	$	(33,747	)	$	1,975
Net cash used in investing activities		(38,286	)		(13,784	)
Net cash provided by financing activities		76,349			7,928
Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents	$	4,316		$	(3,881	)

Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended January 28, 2017 was $33.7 million, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $2.0 million for the three months ended January 30, 2016. The decrease in cash from operating activities in the first quarter 2017 compared to the first quarter 2016 was primarily due to higher cash outflows for accounts payable, lower cash collections of accounts receivable and higher cash outflows for other liabilities. These impacts from accounts payable, accounts receivable and other liabilities were partially offset by increased operating income and lower cash outflows for inventory in the current year quarter.

The higher cash outflows for accounts payable was due primarily to timing of payments to vendors. The reduced cash collections from accounts receivable was primarily due to increased sales in the current year quarter and timing of shipments or customer payments, which caused $82.9 million greater outstanding accounts receivable at January 28, 2017 compared to January 30, 2016. Excluding non-cash stock based compensation expense, operating income increased by $4.7 million in the first quarter of 2017 compared to the prior year period. The lower cash outflow for inventory in the first quarter 2017 was due to better inventory management in the current year period to meet normal seasonal production demands. Higher cash outflows for other liabilities in the first quarter 2017 compared to the first quarter 2016 was due to management incentive bonus payments made in the current year first quarter which was not earned and paid in the first quarter 2016. Also, cash outflows were higher due to the timing of income tax payments, which were $6.0 million greater than in the first quarter 2016.

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities in the three months ended January 28, 2017 was $38.3 million, compared to $13.8 million for the three months ended January 30, 2016. Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended January 28, 2017 was primarily comprised of the payment for the acquisition of Renegade in December 2016 and higher capital expenditures than the prior year period. Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended January 30, 2016 was primarily comprised of capital expenditures and payments for the acquisition of Ancira assets and Hall-Mark.

29

Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended January 28, 2017 was $76.3 million, which primarily consisted of net borrowings from our ABL Facility, and $3.2 million of payments to redeem stock options. Net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended January 30, 2016 was $7.9 million, and primarily consisted of net borrowings under our ABL Facility, offset by the repayment of debt assumed in the Hall-Mark Acquisition and payments to redeem common stock and stock options.

On March 7, 2017, our board of directors declared a cash dividend of $0.05 per share on our common stock, payable in respect of our second quarter of fiscal year 2017 on May 31, 2017 to holders of record on April 30, 2017. Subject to legally available funds and the discretion of our board of directors, we expect to pay a cash dividend at a rate initially equal to $0.05 per share on our common stock. We expect to pay a quarterly dividend on or about the last day of the first month following each fiscal quarter to shareholders of record on the last day of such fiscal quarter. Our dividend policy has certain risks and limitations, particularly with respect to liquidity, and we may not pay dividends according to our policy, or at all. We cannot assure you that we will declare dividends or have sufficient funds to pay dividends on our common stock in the future.

Offering of Common Stock

On January 26, 2017, the Company announced an initial public offering (“IPO”) of our common stock which began trading on the New York Stock Exchange. On February 1, 2017, the Company completed the offering of 12,500,000 shares of common stock at a price of $22.00 per share. Subsequent to the end of the first quarter, the Company received approximately $275.0 million in gross proceeds from the IPO, or approximately $254.4 million in net proceeds after deducting the underwriting discount and expenses related to the offering. The net proceeds of the IPO were used to partially pay down the Company’s existing debt. The Company redeemed the entire outstanding balance of its Senior Secured Notes, including prepayment premium and accrued interest, plus it partially paid down the then outstanding balance of its ABL Facility.

Contractual Obligations

In the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our final prospectus filed with the SEC on January 30, 2017, we disclosed that we had $321.7 million in total commitments as of October 29, 2016. Other than the items discussed below, there have been no material changes in our total commitments during the three months ended January 28, 2017 outside of the normal course of our business.

Senior Secured Notes

On February 16, 2017, we redeemed in full the outstanding aggregate principal amount of Senior Secured Notes with a portion of the proceeds from the IPO. The Company paid a premium of $7.7 million and accrued interest of $4.5 million as of the redemption date.

ABL Facility

On October 21, 2013, we entered into a $150.0 million senior secured asset based lending revolving credit and guaranty agreement (the “ABL Facility”) with a syndicate of lenders. The ABL Facility consists of: (i) revolving loans, (ii) swing line loans and (iii) letters of credit, aggregating up to a combined maximum of $150.0 million. The total amount borrowed is subject to a $15.0 million sublimit for swing line loans and a $25.0 million sublimit for letters of credit, along with certain borrowing base and other customary restrictions as defined in the agreement. On April 22, 2016, we exercised our $50.0 million incremental commitment option under the ABL Facility in conjunction with the acquisition of KME. On August 19, 2016, we amended the ABL Facility to increase the commitment from $200.0 million to $300.0 million to provide flexibility and access to the suppressed borrowing base. All other terms and conditions of the ABL Facility remained unchanged.

The ABL Facility contains certain financial covenants. We were in compliance with all financial covenants under the ABL Facility as of January 28, 2017.

Principal may be repaid at any time during the term of the ABL Facility without penalty. Subsequent to the end of the first quarter, the Company used a portion of the net proceeds from its IPO to repay loans under the ABL Facility.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income

In considering the financial performance of the business, management analyzes the primary financial performance measures of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income for the relevant period before depreciation and amortization, interest expense and provision (benefit) for income taxes, as adjusted for certain items described below that we believe are not indicative of our ongoing operating performance. Adjusted Net Income is defined as net income, as adjusted for certain items described below that we believe are not indicative of our ongoing operating performance. Neither Adjusted EBITDA nor Adjusted Net Income is a measure defined by GAAP. The most directly comparable GAAP measure to EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income is net income for the relevant period.

30

We believe Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income are useful to investors and are used by our management for measuring profitability because these measures exclude the impact of certain items which we believe have less bearing on our core operating performance because they are items that are not needed or available to the Company’s managers in the daily activities of their businesses. We believe that the core operations of our business are those which can be affected by our management in a particular period through their resource allocation decisions that affect the underlying performance of our specialty vehicle operations conducted during that period. We also believe that decisions utilizing Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income allow for a more meaningful comparison of operating fundamentals between companies within our markets by eliminating the impact of capital structure and taxation differences between the companies. To determine Adjusted EBITDA, we further adjust net income for the following items: non-cash depreciation and amortization, interest expense and benefit for income taxes. Stock-based compensation expense is excluded from both Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA because it is an expense that is measured based upon external inputs such as our current share price and the movement of share price of peer companies, which cannot be impacted by our business managers. Stock-based compensation expense also reflects a cost which may obscure trends in our underlying vehicle businesses for a given period, due to the timing and nature of the equity awards.

We also adjust for exceptional items which are determined to be those that in management’s judgment need to be disclosed by virtue of their size, nature or incidence, which include non-cash items and items settled in cash. In determining whether an event or transaction is exceptional, management considers quantitative as well as qualitative factors such as the frequency or predictability of occurrence. This is consistent with the way that financial performance is measured by management and reported to our Board of Directors, assists in providing a meaningful analysis of our operating performance and used as a measurement in incentive compensation for management. Based on the foregoing factors, management considers the adjustment for non-cash purchase accounting to be an exceptional item.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income have limitations as analytical tools. These are not presentations made in accordance with GAAP, nor are they measures of financial condition and they should not be considered as an alternative to net income or net loss for the period determined in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. As a result, you should not consider this performance measure in isolation from, or as a substitute analysis for, our results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, such measures do not reflect:

• our cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;

• changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;

• the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt and, in the case of Adjusted EBITDA, excluding interest expense; and

• the cash requirements to pay our taxes and, in the case of Adjusted EBITDA, excluding income tax expense.

(a) Reflects costs incurred in connection with business acquisitions.

(b) Reflects the reimbursement of expenses to AIP, the Company’s primary equity holder.

(c) In the first quarter of fiscal year 2016, the Company restructured some of its management functions in the Fire & Emergency segment and initiated the relocation of its Corporate office from Orlando, Florida to Milwaukee, Wisconsin. In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2016, the Company implemented a plan to relocate production of Goshen Coach buses from its Elkhart, Indiana facility to its facilities in Salina, Kansas and Imlay City, Michigan and the relocation of our Eldorado mobility van production from Salina, Kansas to Longview, Texas.

The nature and amount of such restructuring costs vary significantly based on the number of completed acquisitions and the size and timing of related and other restructuring programs. By excluding the referenced expenses from the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures, management is able to further evaluate the Company’s ability to utilize existing assets and estimate their long-term value. Furthermore, management believes that the adjustment of these items are useful to investors by supplementing the GAAP information with an additional measure that can be used to assess the Company’s operating performance.

(d) Reflects expenses associated with stock-based compensation. For the three months ended January 28, 2017, stock-based compensation expense includes $13.3 million for the remeasurement of liability awards to our IPO share price, $8.9 million related to the accelerated vesting of liability awards and stock options resulting from the completion of our IPO and $3.3 million was related to the redemption of performance based stock options during the three months ended January 28, 2017. For the three months ended January 30, 2016, stock based compensation expense includes $5.1 million related to the redemption of performance based stock options. We do not expect that such accelerated vesting, the remeasurement of outstanding liability awards and repurchase of outstanding stock options will be an ongoing cost following completion of our IPO. For this reason, following the completion of our IPO, we expect substantially all of our stock-based compensation expense to be a non-cash expense that follows a normal vesting schedule.

(e) Reflects the amortization of the difference between the book value and fair market value of certain acquired inventory which was sold.

(d) Reflects expenses associated with stock-based compensation. For the three months ended January 28, 2017, stock-based compensation expense includes $13.3 million for the remeasurement of liability awards to our IPO share price, $8.9 million related to the accelerated vesting of liability awards and stock options resulting from the completion of our IPO and $3.3 million was related to the redemption of performance based stock options during the three months ended January 28, 2017. For the three months ended January 30, 2016, stock based compensation expense includes $5.1 million related to the redemption of performance based stock options. We do not expect that such accelerated vesting, the remeasurement of outstanding liability awards and repurchase of outstanding stock options will be an ongoing cost following completion our IPO. For this reason, following the completion of our IPO, we expect substantially all of our stock-based compensation expense to be a non-cash expense that follows a normal vesting schedule.

(e) For three months ended January 28, 2017, reflects the amortization of the difference between the book value and fair market value of certain acquired inventory which was sold.

(f) Income tax effect of adjustments using 37.1% and 36.5% effective tax rates for the three months ended January 28, 2017 and January 30, 2016, respectively, except for certain transaction expenses.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have not created, and are not party to, any special-purpose or off-balance sheet entities for the purpose of raising capital, incurring debt or operating our business. With the exception of operating lease obligations, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements or relationships with entities that are not consolidated into or disclosed in our consolidated financial statements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures and capital resources. In addition, we do not engage in trading activities involving non-exchange traded contracts.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect amounts of assets and liabilities reported in the consolidated financial statements, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the year. We believe our estimates and assumptions are reasonable; however, future results could differ from those estimates. We consider the following policies to be the most critical in understanding the judgments that are involved in preparing our consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue for sales of vehicles, parts and other finished products when contract terms are met, collectability is reasonably assured and a product is shipped or risk of ownership has been transferred to and accepted by the customer. In certain instances, risk of ownership and title passes when the product has been completed in accordance with purchase order specifications and has been tendered for delivery to the customer. Periodically, certain customers request bill and hold transactions. In those cases, revenue recognition for vehicles occurs after the customer has been notified that the products have been completed according to the customer specifications, have passed all of our quality control inspections, and are ready for delivery.

Revenue from service agreements is recognized as earned when services are rendered. Intercompany sales are eliminated upon consolidation. Provisions are made for discounts, returns and sales allowances based on management’s best estimate and the historical experience of each business unit. Sales are recorded net of amounts invoiced for taxes imposed on the customer, such as excise or value-added taxes.

Customer advances include amounts received in advance of the completion of vehicles or in advance of services being rendered. Such customer advances are recorded as current liabilities in our consolidated statements of operations until the vehicle is shipped or the service rendered.

Income Taxes

We account for income taxes under the guidance of Accounting Standard Codification 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. We record a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets for which utilization is not more likely than not. Management judgment is required in determining our provision for income taxes, deferred tax assets and liabilities, and the valuation allowance recorded against our net deferred tax assets.

32

We recognize liabilities for uncertain income 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 us 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 we must determine the probability of various possible outcomes. We reevaluate these uncertain tax positions on a quarterly basis or when new information becomes available to management. These reevaluations are based on factors including, but not limited to, changes in facts or circumstances, changes in tax law, successfully settled issues under audit, expirations due to statutes, and new audit activity. Such a change in recognition or measurement could result in the recognition of a tax benefit or an increase to the tax accrual.

Stock Compensation Expense

Stock compensation expense is recorded over the term of the associated stock option grants, which is generally up to 10 years from the grant date, and is measured based upon the estimation of the fair value of all stock option awards on the grant date by applying the Black-Scholes option-pricing valuation model (the “Black-Scholes Model”). The application of the Black-Scholes Model requires us to make certain assumptions such as the fair value of our common stock on the grant date, forfeitures of option grants and the rate of dividend payments on our common stock. Other assumptions utilized in the Black-Scholes Model include volatility of the share price of select peer public companies and the risk free rate.

Prior to the IPO, the fair value of our common stock was calculated by determining our enterprise value by applying an earnings multiple to our Adjusted EBITDA over the previous 12 months, and deducting outstanding debt, then dividing by the number of shares of common stock outstanding. The assumption for forfeitures is based upon historical experience. As we have not historically paid dividends on our common stock, we have previously assumed a 0% dividend rate for all outstanding stock options.

Prior to the IPO, our stockholders were party to a shareholders agreement that was amended and restated in its entirety. Due to provisions in that shareholders agreement, employee shareholders were allowed to put his or her shares to us under certain circumstances. As such, certain outstanding stock options were considered liability awards and were recorded at fair value and recognized as a liability on our consolidated balance sheet. As a result of our IPO, the aforementioned put rights expired and the outstanding options were no longer considered liability awards and the fair value of the options have been reclassified to additional paid-in capital.

Business Combinations

Acquisitions are accounted for using purchase accounting. The purchase price of an acquired company is allocated between tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed from the acquired business, in each case based on their estimated fair values. Any excess consideration transferred is recorded as goodwill. A bargain purchase gain is recognized to the extent the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired exceeds the purchase price. The results of operations of the acquired businesses are included in our operating results from the date of acquisition.

Assets acquired and liabilities assumed generally include tangible and intangible assets, as well as contingent assets and liabilities. When available, the estimated fair values of these assets and liabilities are determined based on observable inputs, such as quoted market prices, information from comparable transactions, offers made by other prospective acquirers (in such cases where we may have certain rights to acquire additional interests in existing investments) and the replacement cost of assets in the same condition or stage of usefulness (Level 1 and 2). Unobservable inputs, such as expected future cash flows or internally developed estimates of value (Level 3), are used if observable inputs are not available.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable consist of amounts billed and currently due from customers. We extend credit to customers in the normal course of business and maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts resulting from the inability or unwillingness of customers to make required payments. Management determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by evaluating individual customer receivables and considering a customer’s financial condition, credit history and current economic conditions. Each fiscal quarter, we prepare an analysis of our ability to collect outstanding receivables that provides a basis for an allowance estimate for doubtful accounts. In connection with this analysis, we evaluate the age of accounts receivable, past collection history, current financial conditions of key customers and economic conditions.

Based on this evaluation, we establish a reserve for specific accounts receivable that are believed to be uncollectible, as well as an estimate of uncollectible receivables not specifically known. Historical trends and our current knowledge of potential collection problems provide us with sufficient information to establish a reasonable estimate for an allowance for doubtful accounts. Receivables are written off when management determines collection is highly unlikely and collection efforts have ceased. Recoveries of receivables previously written off are recorded when received.

33

Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets

The Company accounts for business combinations by estimating the fair value of consideration paid for acquired businesses, including contingent consideration, and assigning that amount to the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the remainder assigned to goodwill. If the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed exceeds the fair value of consideration paid, a gain on bargain purchase is recognized. The estimates of fair values are determined utilizing customary valuation procedures and techniques, which require us, among other things, to estimate future cash flows and discount rates. Such analyses involve significant judgments and estimations.

Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, consisting of trade names, are not amortized, however, the Company reviews goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment at least annually or more often if an event occurs or circumstances change which indicates that its carrying amount may not exceed its fair value. The annual impairment review is performed as of the first day of the fourth quarter of each fiscal year based upon information and estimates available at that time. To perform the impairment testing, the Company first assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair values of the Company’s reporting units or indefinite-lived intangible assets are less than their carrying amounts as a basis for determining whether or not to perform the quantitative impairment test. The Company then estimates the fair value of each reporting unit and each indefinite-lived intangible asset not meeting the qualitative criteria and compares their fair values to their carrying values.

The fair value of each reporting unit of the Company is determined by using the income approach and involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. The income approach involves discounting management’s projections of future cash flows and a terminal value discounted at a discount rate which approximates the Company’s weighted-average cost of capital (“WACC”). Key assumptions used in the income approach include future sales growth, gross margin and operating expenses trends, depreciation expense, taxes, capital expenditures and changes in working capital. Projected future cash flows are based on income forecasts and management’s knowledge of the current operating environment and expectations for the future. The WACC incorporates equity and debt return rates observed in the market for a group of comparable public companies in the industry, and is determined using an average debt to equity ratio of selected comparable public companies, and is also adjusted for risk premiums and the Company’s capital structure. The terminal value is based upon the projected cash flow for the final projected year, and is calculated using estimates of growth of the net cash flows based on the Company’s estimate of stable growth for each financial reporting unit. The inputs and assumptions used in the determination of fair value are considered Level 3 inputs within the fair value hierarchy.

If the fair value of any reporting unit, as calculated using the income approach, is less than its carrying value, the fair value of the implied goodwill is calculated as the difference between the fair value of the reporting unit and the fair value of the underlying assets and liabilities, excluding goodwill. An impairment charge is recorded for any excess of the carrying value of goodwill over the implied fair value for each reporting unit.

When determining the fair value of indefinite-lived trade names, the Company uses the relief from royalty method which requires the determination of fair value based on if the Company was licensing the right to the trade name in exchange for a royalty fee. The Company utilizes the income approach to determine future revenues to which to apply a royalty rate. The royalty rate is based on research of industry and market data related to transactions involving the licensing of comparable intangible assets. In considering the value of trade names, the Company looks to relative age, consistent use, quality, expansion possibilities, relative profitability and relative market potential.

34

Long-Lived Assets, Including Definite-Lived Intangibles

Property, plant and equipment and definite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If an analysis is necessitated by the occurrence of a triggering event, we compare the carrying amount of the asset group with the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset group. If the carrying amount of the asset group exceeds the estimated expected undiscounted future cash flows, we measure the amount of the impairment by comparing the carrying amount of the asset group with its estimated fair value. Such analyses necessarily involve significant judgments and estimations on our part.

Warranty

Provisions for estimated warranty and other related costs are recorded in cost of sales and are periodically adjusted to reflect actual experience. The amount of accrued warranty liability reflects management’s best estimate of the expected future cost of honoring our obligations under our limited warranty plans. The costs of fulfilling our warranty obligations principally involve replacement parts, labor and sometimes travel for any field retrofit or recall campaigns. Our estimates are based on historical experience, the number of units involved and the cost per claim. Also, each quarter we review actual warranty claims to determine if there are systemic effects that would require a field retrofit or recall campaign.

Segment Reporting

For purposes of business segment performance measurement, we do not allocate to individual business segments costs or items that are of a non-operating nature or organizational or functional expenses of a corporate nature. The caption “corporate and other” includes corporate office expenses, including stock-based compensation, results of insignificant operations, intersegment eliminations and income and expenses not allocated to reportable segments. Identifiable assets of the business segments exclude general corporate assets, which principally consist of cash and cash equivalents, certain property, plant and equipment and certain other assets pertaining to corporate activities.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”), which outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. This standard will supersede most current revenue recognition guidance. Under the new standard, entities are required to identify the contract with a customer, identify the separate performance obligations in the contract, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price to the separate performance obligations in the contract and recognize the appropriate amount of revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies each performance obligation. ASU 2014-09 will become effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 (the Company’s fiscal year 2019). We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2014-09 on its consolidated financial statements.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory” (“ASU 2015-11”). Under ASU 2015-11, entities should measure inventory that is not measured using last-in, first-out or the retail inventory method, including inventory that is measured using first-in, first-out or average cost, at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. ASU 2015-11 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and is to be applied prospectively. The adoption of ASU 2015-11 is not expected to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-15, “Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Arrangements” (“ASU 2015-15”), which clarifies the guidance set forth in ASU No. 2015-03, “Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs” (“ASU 2015-03”), issued in April 2015. ASU 2015-03 requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized liability be presented on the statements of operations as a direct reduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected. ASU 2015-15 provides additional guidance regarding debt issuance costs associated with line-of-credit arrangements, stating that the SEC staff would not object to an entity deferring and presenting debt issuance costs as an asset and subsequently amortizing the deferred issuance costs ratably over the term of the line-of-credit arrangement. ASU 2015-03 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, and early adoption is permitted. We early adopted ASU 2015-03 and ASU 2015-15 and debt issuance costs are presented as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability for all periods presented. The adoption of ASU 2015-03 and ASU 2015-15 did not have a material effect our consolidated financial statements.

In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-16, “Business Combinations (Topic 805)—Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments” (“ASU 2015-16”). ASU 2015-16 requires that an acquirer in a business combination recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment

35

amounts are determined, rather than as retrospective adjustments. ASU 2015-16 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within those fiscal years. ASU 2015-16 should be applied prospectively to adjustments to provisional amounts that occur after the effective date of ASU 2015-16 with earlier application permitted for financial statements that have not been issued. The adoption of ASU 2015-16 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”). The amendments in this update require, among other things, that lessees recognize the following for all leases (with the exception of leases with a duration of less than 12 months) at the commencement date: (1) a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and (2) a right-to-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. Lessees and lessors must apply a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. We expect to adopt ASU 2016-02 in the first quarter of 2019 and are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-02 to our consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, “Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (Topic 718)” (“ASU 2016-09”), which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions, including the accounting for the related income taxes, forfeitures, statutory tax withholding requirements and classification in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 (our fiscal year 2018), including interim periods within those annual reporting periods. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-09 to our consolidated financial statements and do not expect adoption to have a material impact.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

There have been no material changes in our exposure to interest rate risk, foreign exchange risk and commodity price risk from the information provided in the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 filed in connection with its IPO.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

In accordance with Rule 13a-15(b) of the Exchange Act, the Company’s management evaluated, with the participation of the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the quarter ended January 28, 2017. Based upon their evaluation of these disclosure controls and procedures, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the quarter ended January 28, 2017 to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time period specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

The Company is subject to certain legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. Although the final results of all such matters and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that the ultimate resolution of all such matters and claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Actual results could vary, among other things, due to the uncertainties involved in litigation.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

There were no material changes in risk factors for the Company in the period covered by this report. See the discussion of risk factors in the Company’s Form S-1 filed in connection with its IPO.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity and Use of Proceeds.

On January 26, 2017, the Company priced the initial public offering of its common stock pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-214209) (the “Registration Statement”), that was declared effective on January 26, 2017. On February 1, 2017, the Company completed the IPO of 12.5 million shares of common stock at a price of $22.00 per share. The Company received $275.0 million in gross proceeds from the IPO, or approximately $254.4 million in net proceeds after deducting the underwriting discount and expenses related to the IPO. The net proceeds of the IPO were used to redeem in full its outstanding Senior Secured Notes and pay the related call premium and to pay accrued and unpaid interest thereon from the most recent interest payment date to the redemption date; and the remaining proceeds were used to repay loans under the Company’s ABL Facility.

Section 4. The rights and authority conferred in this Article 7 shall not be exclusive of any other right which any person may otherwise have or hereafter acquire.

Section 5. Neither the amendment nor repeal of this Article 7, nor the adoption of any provision of this certificate of incorporation or the bylaws of the Corporation, nor, to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware Law, any modification of law, shall adversely affect any right or protection of any person granted pursuant hereto existing at, or arising out of or related to any event, act or omission that occurred prior to, the time of such amendment, repeal, adoption or modification (regardless of when any proceeding (or part thereof) relating to such event, act or omission arises or is first threatened, commenced or completed).

ARTICLE 8

CORPORATE OPPORTUNITIES

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Corporation, on behalf of itself and its subsidiaries, renounces any interest or expectancy of the Corporation and its subsidiaries in, or in being offered an opportunity to participate in, business opportunities that are from time to time presented to any of the Sponsors or any of their respective officers, directors, agents, shareholders, members, partners, subsidiaries (other than the Corporation and its subsidiaries) and affiliates (including, without limitation, American Industrial Partners Capital Fund VI, LP, American Industrial Partners Capital Fund V, LP and their respective officers, directors, agents, shareholders, members, partners, subsidiaries and affiliates) (each, a “Specified Party”), even if the opportunity is one that the Corporation or its subsidiaries might reasonably be deemed to have pursued or had the ability or desire to pursue if granted the opportunity to do so and each such Specified Party shall have no duty to communicate or offer such business opportunity to the Corporation and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, shall not be liable to the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries for breach of any fiduciary or other duty, as a director or officer or otherwise, by reason of the fact that such Specified Party pursues or acquires such business opportunity, directs such business opportunity to another person or fails to present such business opportunity, or information regarding such business opportunity, to the Corporation or its subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a

6

Specified Party who is a director or officer of the Corporation and who is offered a business opportunity in his or her capacity as a director or officer of the Corporation (a “Directed Opportunity”) shall be obligated to communicate such Directed Opportunity to the Corporation; provided, however, that all of the protections of this Article 8 shall otherwise apply to the Specified Parties with respect to such Directed Opportunity, including, without limitation, the ability of the Specified Parties to pursue or acquire such Directed Opportunity or to direct such Directed Opportunity to another person.

Neither the amendment nor repeal of this Article 8, nor the adoption of any provision of this certificate of incorporation or the bylaws of the Corporation, nor, to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware Law, any modification of law, shall adversely affect any right or protection of any person granted pursuant hereto existing at, or arising out of or related to any event, act or omission that occurred prior to, the time of such amendment, repeal, adoption or modification (regardless of when any proceeding (or part thereof) relating to such event, act or omission arises or is first threatened, commenced or completed).

If any provision or provisions of this Article 8 shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable as applied to any circumstance for any reason whatsoever: (a) the validity, legality and enforceability of such provisions in any other circumstance and of the remaining provisions of this Article 8 (including, without limitation, each portion of any paragraph of this Article 8 containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable that is not itself held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and (b) to the fullest extent possible, the provisions of this Article 8 (including, without limitation, each such portion of any paragraph of this Article 8 containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to permit the Corporation to protect its directors, officers, employees and agents from personal liability in respect of their good faith service to or for the benefit of the Corporation to the fullest extent permitted by law.

This Article 8 shall not limit any protections or defenses available to, or indemnification rights of, any director or officer of the Corporation under this certificate of incorporation or applicable law.

Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in any securities of the Corporation shall be deemed to have notice of and to have consented to the provisions of this Article 8.

7

asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL or of this certificate of incorporation or the bylaws, or (d) any action asserting a claim against the Corporation or any director or officer of the Corporation governed by the internal affairs doctrine, in each such case subject to such Court of Chancery having personal jurisdiction over the indispensable parties named as defendants therein.

MEETINGS OF STOCKHOLDERS

Section 2.01. Time and Place of Meetings. All meetings of stockholders shall be held at such place, either within or without the State of Delaware, on such date and at such time as may be determined from time to time by the board of directors (or the chairman in the absence of a designation by the board of directors).

Section 2.02. Annual Meetings. Unless directors are elected by written consent in lieu of an annual meeting as permitted by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended (“Delaware Law”), and the certificate of incorporation, an annual meeting of stockholders, commencing with the fiscal year 2018, shall be held for the election of directors and to transact such other business as may properly be brought before the meeting.

Section 2.03. Special Meetings. (a) Except as otherwise provided in the certificate of incorporation, special meetings of stockholders (i) may be called at any time by the affirmative vote of a majority of the entire board of directors and (ii) until the Effective Date (as such term is defined in the certificate of incorporation), shall be called by the secretary of the Corporation at the request of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of the Corporation’s common stock (the “Common Stock”). Such request shall state the purpose or purposes of the proposed meeting.

(b) A special meeting shall be held at such date, time and place as may be fixed by the board of directors in accordance with these bylaws.

(c) Business conducted at a special meeting shall be limited to the matters described in the applicable request for such special meeting and any other matters as the board of directors shall determine.

Section 2.04. Notice of Meetings and Adjourned Meetings; Waivers of Notice. (a) Whenever stockholders are required or permitted to take any action at a meeting, a written notice of the meeting shall be given which shall state the place, if any, date and hour of the meeting, the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting, if such record date is different from the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of the meeting, and, in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called. Unless otherwise provided by Delaware Law, such notice shall be given not less than 10 nor more than 60 days before the date of the meeting to each stockholder of record entitled to notice of such meeting. Unless these bylaws otherwise require, when a meeting is adjourned to another time or place (whether or not a quorum is present), notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the time, place, if any, and the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting, are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. At the adjourned meeting, the Corporation may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting.

(b) Whenever notice is required to be given under any provision of Delaware Law or the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws, a written waiver signed by the person entitled thereto, or a waiver by electronic transmission by the person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to notice. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special meetings of stockholders need be specified in any written waiver of notice or any waiver by electronic transmission unless so required by the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws. Attendance of a person at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the person attends the meeting for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Business transacted at any special meeting of stockholders shall be limited to the purposes stated in the notice.

Section 2.05. Notice of Nominations and Stockholder Business.

(a) Annual Meetings of Stockholders.

(i) Nominations of persons for election to the board of directors of the Corporation or the proposal of other business to be transacted by the stockholders may be made at an annual meeting of stockholders only (A) pursuant to the Corporation’s notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto), (B) by or at the direction of the board of directors or (C) by any stockholder of the Corporation who is a stockholder of record at the time of giving of notice provided for in this Section 2.05(a), who shall be entitled to vote at the meeting and who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 2.05(a).

(ii) For nominations or other business to be properly brought before an annual meeting of stockholders by a stockholder pursuant to clause (C) of paragraph (a)(i) of this Section 2.05, the stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the secretary of the Corporation and any such proposed business (other than the nominations of persons for election to the board of directors) must constitute a proper matter for stockholder action. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice shall be delivered to or mailed and received by the secretary of the Corporation at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting of stockholders; provided, however, that in the event that the date of the annual meeting is advanced more than 30 days prior to such anniversary date or delayed more than 30 days after such anniversary date then to be timely such notice must be received by the Corporation no earlier than 120 days prior to such annual meeting and no later than the later of 70 days prior to the date of the meeting or the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of the meeting was first made by the Corporation. In no event shall the public announcement of an adjournment or postponement of an annual meeting commence a new time period (or extend any time period) for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described above. For purposes of Sections 2.05(a)(ii) and 2.05(b) of these bylaws, “public announcement” shall mean disclosure in a press release reported by the Dow Jones News Service, the Associated Press or any comparable national news service or in a document publicly filed by the Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Section 13, 14 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (including the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the “Exchange Act”).

(iii) A stockholder’s notice to the secretary shall set forth (A) as to each person whom the stockholder proposes to nominate for election or reelection as a director all information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of directors, or is otherwise required, in each case pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Exchange Act (including such person’s written consent to being named in the proxy statement as a nominee and to serving as a director if elected), (B) as to any other business that the stockholder proposes to bring before the meeting, a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the meeting, the text of the proposal or business (including the text of any resolutions proposed for consideration and in the event that such business includes a proposal to amend these bylaws, the text of the proposed amendment), the reasons for conducting such business at the meeting and any material interest in such business of such stockholder and the

3

beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is made and (C) as to the stockholder giving the notice and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is made:

(1) the name and address of such stockholder (as they appear on the Corporation’s books) and any such beneficial owner;

(2) the class or series and number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation which are held of record or are beneficially owned by such stockholder and by any such beneficial owner;

(3) a description of any agreement, arrangement or understanding between or among such stockholder and any such beneficial owner, any of their respective affiliates or associates, and any other person or persons (including their names) in connection with the proposal of such nomination or other business;

(4) a description of any agreement, arrangement or understanding (including, regardless of the form of settlement, any derivative, long or short positions, profit interests, forwards, futures, swaps, options, warrants, convertible securities, stock appreciation or similar rights, hedging transactions and borrowed or loaned shares) that has been entered into by or on behalf of, or any other agreement, arrangement or understanding that has been made, the effect or intent of which is to create or mitigate loss to, manage risk or benefit of share price changes for, or increase or decrease the voting power of, such stockholder or any such beneficial owner or any such nominee with respect to the Corporation’s securities (a “Derivative Instrument”);

(5) to the extent not disclosed pursuant to clause (4) above, the principal amount of any indebtedness of the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries beneficially owned by such stockholder or by any such beneficial owner, together with the title of the instrument under which such indebtedness was issued and a description of any Derivative Instrument entered into by or on behalf of such stockholder or such beneficial owner relating to the value or payment of any indebtedness of the Corporation or any such subsidiary;

(6) a representation that the stockholder is a holder of record of stock of the Corporation entitled to vote at such meeting and intends to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to bring such nomination or other business before the meeting; and

4

(7) a representation as to whether such stockholder or any such beneficial owner intends or is part of a group that intends to (i) deliver a proxy statement and/or form of proxy to holders of at least the percentage of the voting power of the Corporation’s outstanding capital stock required to approve or adopt the proposal or to elect each such nominee and/or (ii) otherwise to solicit proxies from stockholders in support of such proposal or nomination.

If requested by the Corporation, the information required under clauses (C)(2), (3), (4) and (5) of the preceding sentence of this Section 2.05 shall be supplemented by such stockholder and any such beneficial owner not later than 10 days after the record date for notice of the meeting to disclose such information as of such record date.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the notice requirements set forth herein with respect to the proposal of any business pursuant to this Section 2.05 other than a nomination shall be deemed satisfied by a stockholder if such stockholder has submitted a proposal to the Corporation in compliance with Rule 14a-8 promulgated under the Exchange Act and such stockholder’s proposal has been included in a proxy statement that has been prepared by the Corporation to solicit proxies for the meeting of stockholders.

(b) Special Meetings of Stockholders. Only such business shall be conducted at a special meeting of stockholders as shall have been brought before the meeting pursuant to the Corporation’s notice of meeting pursuant to Section 2.04. Nominations of persons for election to the board of directors of the Corporation at a special meeting of stockholders may be made by stockholders only if the election of directors is included as business to be brought before a special meeting in the Corporation’s notice of meeting and then only by any stockholder of the Corporation who is a stockholder of record at the time of giving of notice provided for in this Section 2.05(b), who shall be entitled to vote at the meeting and who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 2.05(b). For nominations to be properly brought before a special meeting of stockholders by a stockholder pursuant to this Section 2.05(b), the stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the secretary of the Corporation. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice shall be delivered to or mailed and received by the secretary of the Corporation at the principal executive offices of the Corporation (A) not earlier than 120 days prior to the date of the special meeting nor (B) later than the later of 90 days prior to the date of the special meeting or the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of the special meeting was first made. A stockholder’s notice to the secretary shall comply with the notice requirements of Section 2.05(a)(iii).

5

(c) General.

(i) At the request of the board of directors, any person nominated by the board of directors for election as a director shall furnish to the secretary of the Corporation the information that is required to be set forth in a stockholder’s notice of nomination that pertains to the nominee. Subject to the provisions of the Shareholders Agreement (as defined herein), no person shall be eligible to be nominated by a stockholder to serve as a director of the Corporation unless nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.05. No business shall be conducted at a stockholder meeting except in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.03 and this Section 2.05. The chairman of the meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that a nomination was not made in accordance with the procedures prescribed by these bylaws or that business was not properly brought before the meeting, and if he should so determine and declare, the defective nomination shall be disregarded or such business shall not be transacted, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.05, unless otherwise required by law, if the stockholder (or a qualified representative of the stockholder) does not appear at the annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Corporation to present a nomination or other proposed business, such nomination shall be disregarded or such proposed business shall not be transacted, as the case may be, notwithstanding that proxies in respect of such vote may have been received by the Corporation. For purposes of this Section 2.05, to be considered a qualified representative of the stockholder, a person must be a duly authorized officer, manager or partner of such stockholder or must be authorized by a writing executed by such stockholder or an electronic transmission delivered by such stockholder to act for such stockholder as proxy at the meeting of stockholders and such person must produce such writing or electronic transmission, or a reliable reproduction of the writing or electronic transmission, at the meeting of stockholders.

(ii) Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.05, a stockholder shall also comply with all applicable requirements of the Exchange Act with respect to the matters set forth in this Section 2.05; provided, however, that any references in these bylaws to the Exchange Act are not intended to and shall not limit any requirements applicable to nominations or proposals as to any other business to be considered pursuant to this Section 2.05, and compliance with Section 2.05(a) or (b) shall be the exclusive means for a stockholder to make nominations or submit other business (other than as provided in the last paragraph of Section 2.05(a)).

Section 2.06. Quorum. Unless otherwise provided in the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws and subject to Delaware Law, the presence, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. If, however, such quorum shall not be present at any meeting of the stockholders, either the chairman of the meeting or a majority of the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy shall adjourn the meeting, without notice other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum shall be present. At such adjourned meeting at which a quorum shall be present any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at the meeting as originally notified.

6

Section 2.07. Voting. (a) Unless otherwise provided in the certificate of incorporation and subject to Delaware Law, each stockholder shall be entitled to one vote for each outstanding share of capital stock of the Corporation held by such stockholder. Any share of capital stock of the Corporation held by the Corporation shall have no voting rights. Unless otherwise provided in the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws and subject to Delaware Law, in all matters other than the election of directors, the affirmative vote of the majority of the votes cast affirmatively or negatively at the meeting at which a quorum is present and entitled to vote on the subject matter shall be the act of the stockholders. Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of preferred stock to elect additional directors under specific circumstances, directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares of capital stock of the Corporation present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors.

(b) Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders or to express consent or dissent to a corporate action in writing without a meeting may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder by proxy, appointed by an instrument in writing, subscribed by such stockholder or by his attorney thereunto authorized, or by proxy sent by cable, telegram or by any means of electronic communication permitted by law, which results in a writing from such stockholder or by his attorney, and delivered to the secretary of the meeting. No proxy shall be voted after three (3) years from its date, unless said proxy provides for a longer period.

(c) Votes may be cast by any stockholder entitled to vote in person or by his proxy. In determining the number of votes cast for or against a proposal or nominee, shares abstaining from voting on a matter (including elections) will not be treated as a vote cast.

Section 2.08. Action by Consent. (a) Until the Effective Date and unless otherwise provided in the certificate of incorporation, any action required to be taken at any annual or special meeting of stockholders, or any action which may be taken at any annual or special meeting of stockholders, may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding capital stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted and shall be delivered to the Corporation by delivery to its registered office in Delaware, its principal place of business or an officer or agent of the Corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of stockholders are recorded. Delivery made to the Corporation’s registered office shall be by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested. Prompt notice of the taking of the corporate action without a meeting by less than unanimous written consent shall be given to those stockholders who have not consented in writing and who, if the action had been taken at a meeting, would have been entitled to notice of the meeting if the record date for such meeting had been the date that written consents signed by a sufficient number of stockholders to take the action were delivered to the Corporation as provided in Section 2.08(b).

7

(b) Every written consent shall bear the date of signature of each stockholder who signs the consent, and no written consent shall be effective to take the corporate action referred to therein unless, within 60 days of the earliest dated consent delivered in the manner required by this section and Delaware Law to the Corporation, written consents signed by a sufficient number of holders to take action are delivered to the Corporation in the manner required by this Section 2.08 and Delaware Law.

Section 2.09. Organization. At each meeting of stockholders, the chairman of the board of directors, if one shall have been elected, or in the chairman’s absence or if one shall not have been elected, the director or officer designated by the vote of the majority of the directors present at such meeting, shall act as chairman of the meeting. The secretary (or in the secretary’s absence or inability to act, the person whom the chairman of the meeting shall appoint secretary of the meeting) shall act as secretary of the meeting and keep the minutes thereof.

Section 2.10. Order of Business. The order of business at all meetings of stockholders shall be as determined by the chairman of the meeting.

Section 3.03. Quorum and Manner of Acting. Unless the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws require a greater number, a majority of the total number of directors shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, and the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors present at a meeting at which a quorum is present shall be the act of the board of directors. When a meeting is adjourned to another time or place (whether or not a quorum is present), notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the time and place thereof are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. At the adjourned meeting, the board of directors may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting.

member or members constitute a quorum, may unanimously appoint another member of the board of directors to act at the meeting in the place of any such absent or disqualified member. Any such committee, to the extent provided in the resolution of the board of directors, shall have and may exercise all the powers and authority of the board of directors in the management of the business and affairs of the Corporation, and may authorize the seal of the Corporation to be affixed to all papers which may require it; but no such committee shall have the power or authority in reference to the following matters: (i) approving or adopting, or recommending to the stockholders, any action or matter expressly required by Delaware Law to be submitted to the stockholders for approval or (ii) adopting, amending or repealing any bylaw of the Corporation. Each committee shall keep regular minutes of its meetings and report the same to the board of directors when required.

(b) Unless otherwise provided in the certificate of incorporation, these bylaws or the resolution of the board of directors designating the committee, a committee may create one or more subcommittees consisting of one or more members of such committee and delegate to such subcommittee any or all of the powers and authority of the committee.

(c) Unless the board of directors otherwise provides, each committee designated by the board of directors may make, alter and repeal rules for the conduct of its business. In the absence of such rules, each committee shall conduct its business in the same manner as the board of directors conducts its business pursuant to this Article 3.

Section 3.09. Action by Consent. Unless otherwise restricted by the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws, any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the board of directors or of any committee thereof may be taken without a meeting, if all members of the board or committee, as the case may be, consent thereto in writing or by electronic transmission, and the writing or writings or electronic transmission or transmissions, are filed with the minutes of proceedings of the board or committee. Such filing shall be in paper form if the minutes are maintained in paper form and shall be in electronic form if the minutes are maintained in electronic form.

Section 3.10. Telephonic Meetings. Unless otherwise restricted by the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws, members of the board of directors, or any committee designated by the board of directors, may participate in a meeting of the board of directors, or such committee, as the case may be, by means of conference telephone or other communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and such participation in a meeting shall constitute presence in person at the meeting.

From and after the Effective Date, vacancies on the board of directors resulting from death, resignation, removal or otherwise and newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the number of directors shall, except as otherwise required by law, be filled solely by a majority of the directors then in office (although less than a quorum) or by the sole remaining director, and each director so elected shall hold office for a term that shall coincide with the term of the class to which such director shall have been elected. Subject to the terms of any series of preferred stock entitled to separately elect directors, whenever the holders of any class or classes of stock or series thereof are entitled to elect one or more directors by the certificate of incorporation, vacancies and newly created directorships of such class or classes or series may be filled by a majority of directors elected by such class or classes or series thereof then in office, or by a sole remaining director so elected. If there are no directors in office, then an election of directors may be held in accordance with Delaware Law.

CAPITAL STOCK

Section 5.01. Certificates For Stock; Uncertificated Shares. The shares of the Corporation shall be represented by uncertificated shares, provided that the board of directors of the Corporation may provide by resolution or resolutions that some or all of any or all classes or series of its stock shall be certificated shares. Except as otherwise provided by law, the rights and obligations of the holders of uncertificated shares and the rights and obligations of the holders of shares represented by certificates of the same class and series shall be identical. Every holder of stock represented by certificates shall be entitled to have a certificate signed by or in the name of the Corporation by the chairman or vice chairman of the board of directors, or any vice president, and by the treasurer, an assistant treasurer, the secretary or an assistant secretary of such Corporation, representing the number of shares registered in certificate form. Any or all of the signatures on the certificate may be a facsimile. In case any officer, transfer agent or registrar who has signed or whose facsimile signature has been placed upon a certificate shall have ceased to be such officer, transfer agent or registrar before such certificate is issued, it may be issued by the Corporation with the same effect as if such person were such officer, transfer agent or registrar at the date of issue. The Corporation shall not have power to issue a certificate in bearer form.

12

Section 5.02. Transfer Of Shares. Shares of the stock of the Corporation may be transferred on the record of stockholders of the Corporation by the holder thereof or by such holder’s duly authorized attorney upon surrender of a certificate therefor properly endorsed or upon receipt of proper transfer instructions from the registered holder of uncertificated shares or by such holder’s duly authorized attorney and upon compliance with appropriate procedures for transferring shares in uncertificated form, unless waived by the Corporation.

Section 5.03. Authority for Additional Rules Regarding Transfer. The board of directors shall have the power and authority to make all such rules and regulations, not inconsistent with these bylaws, as they may deem expedient concerning the issue, transfer and registration of certificated or uncertificated shares of the stock of the Corporation, as well as for the issuance of new certificates in lieu of those which may be lost or destroyed, and may require of any stockholder requesting replacement of lost or destroyed certificates, bond in such amount and in such form as they may deem expedient to indemnify the Corporation and the transfer agents and registrars of its stock against any claims arising in connection therewith.

ARTICLE 6

GENERAL PROVISIONS

Section 6.01. Fixing the Record Date. (a) In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, the board of directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the board of directors, and which record date shall not be more than 60 nor less than 10 days before the date of such meeting. If the board of directors so fixes a record date for notice of any meeting of stockholders, such date shall also be the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting unless the board of directors determines, at the time it fixes such record date, that a later date on or before the date of the meeting shall be the date for making such determination. If no record date is fixed by the board of directors, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held. A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided that the board of directors may fix a new record date for determination of stockholders entitled to vote at the adjourned meeting and in such case shall also fix as the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of such meeting the same or an earlier date as that fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to vote at such adjourned meeting in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.01(a).

(b) In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, the board of directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the board of directors and shall not be more than 10 days

13

after the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the board of directors. If no record date has been fixed by the board of directors pursuant to this Section 6.01(b), the record date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, when no prior action by the board of directors is required by Delaware Law, shall be the first date on which a signed written consent setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is delivered to the Corporation by delivery to its registered office in the State of Delaware, its principal place of business or any officer or agent of the Corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of stockholders are recorded. Delivery made to the Corporation’s registered office shall be by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested. If no record date has been fixed by the board of directors and prior action by the board of directors is required by Delaware Law, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting shall be at the close of business on the day on which the board of directors adopts the resolution taking such prior action.

(c) In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights or the stockholders entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock, or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the board of directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted, and which record date shall be not more than 60 days prior to such action. If no record date is fixed, the record date for determining stockholders for any such purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the board of directors adopts the resolution relating thereto.

Section 6.02. Dividends. Subject to limitations contained in Delaware Law and the certificate of incorporation, if any, the board of directors may declare and pay dividends upon the shares of capital stock of the Corporation, which dividends may be paid either in cash, in property or in shares of the capital stock of the Corporation.

Section 6.03. Year. The fiscal year of the Corporation shall be fixed by resolution of the board of directors.

Section 6.04. Corporate Seal. The corporate seal shall have inscribed thereon the name of the Corporation, the year of its organization and the words “Corporate Seal, Delaware”. The seal may be used by causing it or a facsimile thereof to be impressed, affixed or otherwise reproduced.

Section 6.05. Voting of Stock Owned by the Corporation. The board of directors may authorize any person, on behalf of the Corporation, to attend, vote at and grant proxies to be used at any meeting of stockholders of any corporation (except this Corporation) in which the Corporation may hold stock.

14

Section 6.06. Amendments. These bylaws or any of them, may be altered, amended or repealed, or new bylaws may be made, by the stockholders entitled to vote thereon at any annual or special meeting thereof or by the board of directors. Unless a higher percentage is required by the certificate of incorporation as to any matter that is the subject of these bylaws, all such amendments must be approved by (i) the board of directors or (ii) the affirmative vote of the holders of not less than (x) a majority of the then outstanding capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders, in the case of any such amendment prior to the Effective Date, and (y) 66 2/3% of the then outstanding capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders, in the case of any such amendment on or after the Effective Date.

Section 6.07. Shareholders Agreement. For so long as that certain Amended and Restated Shareholders Agreement, dated as of February 1, 2017, by and among the Corporation, the Sponsors (as such term is defined in the certificate of incorporation) and certain other existing shareholders of the Corporation, as amended from time to time (the “Shareholders Agreement”), is in effect, the provisions of the Shareholders Agreement shall be incorporated by reference into the relevant provisions hereof, and such provisions shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with the terms of the Shareholders Agreement.

Basis of Presentation

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

The condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of REV Group, Inc. (“REV” or “the Company”) and all of its subsidiaries and are prepared in conformity within generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary to present fairly REV’s consolidated financial position as of January 28, 2017 and October 29, 2016, and the consolidated results of operations and comprehensive income for the three months ended January 28, 2017 and January 30, 2016 and the consolidated cash flows for the three months then ended. The condensed unaudited consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for the three months ended January 28, 2017 and January 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The condensed unaudited consolidated balance sheet data as of October 29, 2016 was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto.

During fiscal year 2016, the Company changed its fiscal year end from October 31 of each year to the last Saturday in October of each year going forward.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Initial Public Offering: On January 26, 2017, the Company announced the pricing of an initial public offering (“IPO”) of shares of its common stock, which began trading on the New York Stock Exchange on January 27, 2017. On February 1, 2017, the Company completed the IPO of 12.5 million shares of common stock at a price of $22.00 per share. The Company received $275.0 million in gross proceeds from the IPO, or approximately $254.4 million in net proceeds after deducting the underwriting discount and expenses related to the IPO. The net proceeds of the IPO were used to pay down the Company’s existing debt. Immediately prior to closing of the IPO, the Company completed an 80-for-one stock split of its Class A common stock and Class B common stock and reclassified the Class A common stock and Class B common stock into a single class of common stock, which was the same class as the shares sold in the IPO. All share and per share data have been retroactively restated to give effect to this stock split.

Acquisitions

Note 2. Acquisitions

Renegade RV Acquisition

On December 30, 2016, the Company acquired 100% of the common shares of Kibbi, LLC, which operated as Renegade RV (“Renegade” and the “Renegade Acquisition”). Renegade is a leading manufacturer of recreational vehicles and heavy-duty special application trailers. The purchase price for Renegade was $22,178 ($20,581 net of cash acquired), subject to an adjustment based on the level of net working capital and debt at closing, as defined in the purchase agreement. The net cash consideration paid at closing was funded through the Company’s ABL Facility. Renegade is reported as part of the Recreation segment. The preliminary purchase price allocation resulted in goodwill of $3,132, which is not deductible for income tax purposes.

The acquisition of Renegade has been accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting, whereby the purchase price was allocated to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values on the acquisition date, with the remaining unallocated purchase price recorded as goodwill. Fair value measurements have been applied based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing of the asset or liability. The accounting for this transaction is preliminary and subject to potential adjustments, no later than one year from the date of acquisition.

As of January 28, 2017,  the Company had not completed its assessment of the value of acquired assets and liabilities, as well as the completion of the determination of the final purchase price calculation, as defined in the purchase agreement.

The following table summarizes the preliminary fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed for Renegade:

Assets:
Cash	$	1,597
Accounts receivable, net		2,334
Inventories, net		14,226
Other current assets		131
Property, plant and equipment		751
Intangible assets, net		6,400
Total assets acquired	$	25,439
Liabilities:
Accounts payable	$	4,230
Accrued warranty		570
Customer advances		272
Other current liabilities		776
Deferred income taxes		480
Other long-term liabilities		65
Total liabilities assumed	$	6,393
Net Assets Acquired		19,046
Consideration Paid		22,178
Goodwill	$	3,132

Intangible assets acquired as a result of the Renegade Acquisition are as follows:

Customer relationships (6 year life)	$	4,100
Order backlog (1 year life)		700
Trade names (indefinite life)		1,600
Total intangible assets, net	$	6,400

Sales and operating loss for the three months ended January 28, 2017 attributable to the Renegade acquisition were $5,209 and $155, respectively. The Company has not included pro forma financial information in this report as if the acquisition had occurred on November 1, 2015, since the Renegade Acquisition did not meet the materiality requirement for such disclosure.

Kovatch Mobile Equipment Acquisition

On April 22, 2016, the Company acquired certain real estate assets and 100% of the common shares of Kovatch Mobile Equipment Corp. (“KME” and the “KME Acquisition”). KME produces a broad portfolio of customized specialty fire apparatus vehicles, and markets them to fire-rescue, military, aviation, and industrial customers globally. The KME Acquisition strengthens the Company’s share in the emergency vehicle market by expanding the Company’s product portfolio into segments of the fire apparatus market, which have not been previously served by the Company’s existing businesses and complements the Company’s existing product portfolio. The purchase price for KME was $39,602 ($30,112 net of $9,490 cash acquired) and a subsequent $511 adjustment paid to the Company based on the level of net working capital and debt at closing. The net cash consideration paid at closing was funded through the Company’s ABL Facility. KME is reported as part of the Fire & Emergency segment. The preliminary purchase price allocation resulted in goodwill of $1,314, which is not deductible for income tax purposes.

The acquisition of KME has been accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting, whereby the purchase price was allocated to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values on the acquisition date, with the remaining unallocated purchase price recorded as goodwill. Fair value measurements have been applied based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing of the asset or liability. The accounting for this transaction is preliminary and subject to potential adjustments, no later than one year from the date of acquisition.

As of January 28, 2017, the Company had not completed its final assessment of the value of liabilities for environmental, workers compensation and warranty liabilities which existed as of the date of acquisition. Adjustments which may result from the completion of this assessment may also result in a change in the value of deferred income tax assets and liabilities.

The following table summarizes the preliminary fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed for KME:

Assets:
Cash	$	9,490
Receivables, net		13,651
Inventories, net		67,899
Deferred income taxes		6,233
Other current assets		1,580
Property, plant and equipment		15,332

Total assets acquired		125,174
Liabilities:

Deferred income taxes		5,977
Other current liabilities		9,280
Total liabilities assumed		86,886
Net Assets Acquired		38,288
Consideration Paid		39,602
Goodwill	$	1,314

Intangible assets acquired as a result of the KME Acquisition are as follows:

Customer relationships (9 year life)	$	8,550
Trade names (indefinite life)		2,400
Total intangible assets, net	$	10,950

Net sales and operating loss for the three months ended January 28, 2017, attributable to the KME acquisition were $35,829 and $400, respectively. The Company has not included pro forma financial information in this report as if the acquisition had occurred on November 1, 2015, since the KME Acquisition did not meet the materiality requirement for such disclosure.

Hall-Mark Fire Apparatus Acquisition

On November 20, 2015, the Company acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of Hall-Mark Fire Apparatus Inc. (“Hall-Mark” and  the “Hall-Mark Acquisition”). The Hall-Mark acquisition provides the Company with the opportunity to expand its parts and service offerings to its customers. The purchase price was $3,000 in cash with $2,000 paid at closing and a total of  $1,000 payable in quarterly installments over the next five years. Additionally, the Company assumed $3,698 of Hall-Mark’s debt, offset by $385 of cash acquired. The net cash consideration paid at closing was funded through the Company’s ABL Facility. Hall-Mark is reported as part of the Fire & Emergency segment. The purchase price allocation resulted in goodwill of $368, which is deductible for income tax purposes.

The Hall-Mark Acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting, whereby the purchase price was allocated to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values on the acquisition date, with the remaining unallocated purchase price recorded as goodwill. Fair value measurements have been applied based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing of the asset or liability.

The following table summarizes the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed for Hall-Mark:

Assets:
Cash	$	385
Accounts receivable		3,135
Inventories		2,718
Prepaids & other assets		3,493

Debt		3,698
Total liabilities assumed		9,660
Net Assets Acquired		2,632
Consideration Paid		3,000
Goodwill	$	368

The Hall-Mark trade names will be amortized over five years, customer lists will be amortized over nine years, non-compete agreements will be amortized over six years and the order backlog is being amortized over a one-year period.

Net sales and operating income for the three months ended January 28, 2017, attributable to the Hall-Mark acquisition were $14,211 and $304, respectively. The Company has not included pro forma financial information as if the acquisition had occurred on November 1, 2015, since the Hall-Mark Acquisition did not meet the materiality requirement for such disclosure.

Ancira Acquisition

On December 14, 2015, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire the land, building, and inventory of a recreational vehicle dealer in Texas (“Ancira” and the “Ancira Acquisition”). The purchase price for the Ancira Acquisition was $19,976.

As the Company did not acquire any business processes, namely the dealer license from this dealer, the Ancira Acquisition was accounted for as an asset acquisition, and accordingly, the total purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired based on their relative fair value. No intangible assets were acquired or recognized as a result of the Ancira Acquisition.

The following table summarizes the allocated cost of the assets acquired in the Ancira Acquisition:

Inventory	$	13,541
Land & land improvements		1,400

Notes Payable and Bank Debt

Note 7. Notes Payable and Bank Debt

The Company was obligated under the following debt instruments:

	January 28, 2017		October 29, 2016
Senior secured facility:
Senior secured notes, net of debt discount ($413 and $455) and debt issuance costs ($3,179 and $3,505)	$	176,408	$	176,040
ABL Facility		159,600		80,000
Notes payable and bank debt	$	336,008	$	256,040

Senior Secured Notes

On October 21, 2013, the Company issued (the “Offering”) $200,000 in aggregate principal amount of its 8.5% Senior Secured Notes (the “Notes”). The net proceeds from the Offering, together with net proceeds from the Company’s ABL Facility (defined below), were used to finance the acquisition of the commercial bus business of Thor Industries, Inc. in fiscal year 2013 and to repay all outstanding debt existing at the time of the Offering.

The Notes mature on November 1, 2019. All principal is due in full on the maturity date. Interest accrues on the Notes at the rate of 8.5% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on May 1 and November 1 each year.

The Notes are guaranteed by all direct and indirect wholly owned domestic subsidiaries of the Company that guarantee debt under the ABL Facility described below. The Notes are secured by a first priority lien on substantially all of the guarantors’ assets other than accounts receivable and inventory, and related assets, pledged under the ABL Facility. The Notes are also secured by a second priority lien on substantially all of the collateral under the ABL Facility. The Notes are effectively subordinated to debt incurred under the ABL Facility, or other permitted debt facilities and obligations, as defined, to the extent of the value of the assets securing the ABL Facility.

On October 17, 2016, the Company completed an open market purchase of $20,000 of its outstanding notes, which were subsequently cancelled. The Company paid a premium of $400 and accrued interest of $784 as of the date of the purchase.

After November 1, 2016, the Company may redeem all or a part of the Notes at the redemption prices set forth below plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes redeemed, to the applicable redemption date:

102.125% (Year 2017)

100.000% (Year 2018 and thereafter)

Upon a change of control, as defined, each holder of the Notes will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part of the holder’s Notes at 101%, so long as the Note is a minimum of $2,000.

The Notes were issued with an applicable original issue discount (“OID”) of $1,166. The Company also incurred $8,980 in associated debt issuance costs. The OID is being accreted and debt issuance costs are being amortized over the debt term using the effective interest method. The principal on the Notes is being reported on the consolidated balance sheets net of the unamortized OID of $413 and $455 at January 28, 2017 and October 29, 2016, respectively. The unamortized debt issuance costs are being reported on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as a reduction of notes payble and bank debt and totaled $3,179 and $3,505 at January 28, 2017 and October 29, 2016, respectively. The Notes contain certain financial covenants. The Company was in compliance with all financial covenants under the Notes as of January 28, 2017.

At January 28, 2017, the Company had $180,000 in principal outstanding under the Notes.

On January 17, 2017, the Company issued a Notice of Conditional Redemption, subject to the completion of the Company’s IPO, to redeem all the outstanding Notes at a redemption price of 104.250% plus accrued and unpaid interest. On February 16, 2017, the Company redeemed all Notes which were outstanding as of that date, and retired the debt. The Company paid a premium of $7,650 and accrued interest of $4,463 as of the redemption date.

ABL Facility

Effective October 21, 2013, the Company entered into a $150,000 senior secured revolving credit and guaranty agreement (the Asset Based Lending or “ABL Facility”) with a syndicate of lenders. The ABL Facility consists of: (i) Revolving Loans, (ii) Swing Line Loans, and (iii) Letters of Credit, aggregating up to a combined maximum of $150,000. The total amount borrowed was subject to a $15,000 sublimit for Swing Line Loans, and a $25,000 sublimit for Letters of Credit, along with certain borrowing base and other customary restrictions as defined in the agreement. The Company incurred $3,526 in debt issuance costs related to the ABL Facility.

On April 22, 2016, the Company exercised its $50,000 Incremental Commitment option under the ABL Facility in conjunction with the KME Acquisition, which increased the borrowing capacity under the ABL Facility to $200,000 at that time. All other terms and conditions remain unchanged.

On August 19, 2016, the Company amended the ABL Facility to add an Incremental Commitment option of $100,000 (the “August 2016 Amendment”), and on that date exercised the Incremental Commitment option. The August 2016 Amendment increased the borrowing capacity under the ABL Facility to $300,000. All other terms and conditions remain unchanged.

All outstanding principal on the ABL Facility is due and payable on the maturity date of October 21, 2018, unless as otherwise amended per the terms of the agreement. Principal may be repaid at any time during the term of the ABL Facility without penalty. The lenders hold a first priority security interest in essentially all accounts receivable and inventory of the Company, and a second priority security interest in all other assets of the Company. All obligations under the ABL Facility are effectively subordinate to other debt to the extent of the value of collateral other than accounts receivable and inventory.

All Revolving Loans under the ABL Facility bear interest at rates equal to, at the Company’s option, either a Base Rate plus an Applicable Margin, or a Eurodollar Rate plus an Applicable Margin. All Swing Line Loans under the ABL Facility bear interest at a rate equal to a Base Rate plus an Applicable Margin. Applicable Margins were initially set at 0.75% for Base Rate loans and Swing Line Loans, and 1.75% for Eurodollar loans, and are subject to subsequent adjustment as defined in the agreement. Interest is payable quarterly for all loans in which a Base Rate is applied, and is payable either monthly, quarterly, or semi-annually for all loans in which a Eurodollar Rate is applied.

At January 28, 2017, the Company had $159,600 in principal outstanding under Revolving Loans, and had a net unused availability of $134,249. Borrowings under Revolving Loans beat interest at an average rate of 2.55% per annum. The Company had open Letters of Credit of $6,151 at January 28, 2017.

The ABL Facility contains certain financial covenants. The Company was in compliance with all financial covenants under the ABL Facility as of January 28, 2017.

The Company’s products generally carry explicit warranties that extend from several months to several years, based on terms that are generally accepted in the marketplace. Selected components (such as engines, transmissions, tires, etc.) included in the Company’s end products may include warranties from original equipment manufacturers (“OEM”). These OEM warranties are passed on to the end customer of the Company’s products, and the customer deals directly with the applicable OEM for any issues encountered on those components.

Changes in the Company’s warranty liability consisted of the following:

Other long-term liabilities		16,777		16,115
Total warranty liability	$	37,931	$	38,808

Provisions for estimated warranty and other related costs are recorded at the time of sale and are periodically adjusted to reflect actual experience. Certain warranty and other related claims involve matters of dispute that ultimately are resolved by negotiation, arbitration or litigation. At times, warranty issues arise that are beyond the scope of the Company’s historical experience. The potential liability for these issues is evaluated on a case by case basis.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities

Note 10. Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities

Cash Flow Hedges: The Company is exposed to certain risks relating to its ongoing business operations. The primary risk related to cash flows, partially managed by using derivative instruments, is foreign currency exchange rate risk. Forward contracts on various foreign currencies are entered into to manage the foreign currency exchange rate risk on the collection of receivables denominated in foreign currencies. These derivatives typically require the exchange of a foreign currency for U.S. dollars at a fixed rate at a future date.

To protect against the reduction in value of forecasted foreign currency cash flows resulting from export sales, the Company has instituted a foreign currency cash flow hedging program. The Company hedges portions of its receivables denominated in foreign currencies with forward contracts. When the U.S. dollar weakens against foreign currencies, decreased foreign currency payments are offset by gains in the value of the forward contracts. Conversely, when the U.S. dollar strengthens against foreign currencies, increased foreign currency payments are offset by losses in the value of the forward contracts.

For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified into earnings in the same line item associated with the forecasted transaction and in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. The Company generally hedges its exposure to the variability in future cash flows for a maximum of 12 to 18 months.

The ineffective portion of cash flow hedges, which is the remaining gain or loss on the derivative instrument in excess of the cumulative change in the present value of future cash flows of the hedged item, if any, or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness, is recognized in earnings immediately during the current period as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

A net amount of $58 recorded as income in accumulated other comprehensive income is expected to be reclassified to earnings within the next 12 months. The Company had forward foreign exchange contracts with a gross notional value of $8,482 and $5,198 as of January 28, 2017 and October 29, 2016, respectively, designated as cash flow hedges.

Equity [Abstract]

Shareholders' Equity

Note 11. Shareholders’ Equity

At January 27, 2017, the Company’s certificate of incorporation allowed for the issuance of up to 46,000,000 Class A common shares and for the issuance of up to 43,200,000 Class B common shares. Concurrent with the closing of the Company’s IPO, the Company amended its certificate of incorporation to provide for the automatic reclassification of its Class A common stock and Class B common stock into a single class of common stock, of which 605,000,000 shares are designated as common stock, and 95,000,000 shares are designated as preferred stock and to effect an 80-for-one stock split.

Shareholder Rights: Prior to the Company’s IPO completed on February 1, 2017, all current shareholders of the Company were a party to the Amended Shareholders Agreement (the “Shareholders Agreement”) which governed the shareholders’ voting rights, right to transfer securities, rights in the event of a sale of the Company or other liquidity event and other special approval rights. Under the terms of the Shareholders Agreement, the Company was required (at the shareholder’s option) or had the option to purchase the shareholder’s common stock upon termination, disability, death or retirement if the shareholder was an employee. If an employee shareholder was terminated for cause or the employee shareholder departs for any reason other than death, disability or retirement, the purchase price of the common stock was the lesser of termination book value or cost. In the case of termination for any other reason and in the case of death, disability or retirement, the purchase price was a price per share equal to the fair market value as determined by the Company’s board of directors. In connection with the IPO, the Company entered into an amended and restated shareholders agreement with certain shareholders. The amended and restated shareholders agreement became effective upon completion of the IPO and replaced the Shareholders Agreement that was in effect immediately prior to the IPO.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings Per Share

Note 12. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per common share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding including contingently redeemable common stock. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding assuming dilution. The difference between basic EPS and diluted EPS is the result of the dilutive effect of outstanding stock options. The table below reconciles basic weighted-average common shares outstanding to diluted weighted-average shares outstanding for the three-month period ended January 28, 2017 and January 30, 2016:

	Three Months Ended
	January 28, 2017		January 30, 2016
Basic weighted-average common shares outstanding		51,360,163		52,506,201
Dilutive stock options		—		—
Diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding		51,360,163		52,506,201

The Company excludes stock options that have an anti-dilutive effect from its calculation of weighted-average shares outstanding assuming dilution. For the three months ended January 28, 2017 and January 30, 2016, there were 3,078,240 and 2,868,000 stock options, respectively, which were excluded from the calculation of diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding as the impact would have been anti-dilutive on earnings per share.

Contingently Redeemable Common Stock

Note 13. Contingently Redeemable Common Stock

Prior to the Company’s IPO, shares of common stock held by employees were eligible to be put to the Company in accordance with the Shareholders Agreement if certain criteria (as defined in the Shareholders Agreement) were met and the former employee or his or her beneficiaries exercised the option to put the shares to the Company in accordance with the Shareholders Agreement. As these provisions were not certain of being met, the shares of common stock held by employees were considered contingently redeemable common stock and recorded as temporary equity on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet until the shares of common stock were either re-purchased by the Company or the put option expired. The put option expired 90 or 180 days after termination of employment, depending on the nature of the termination or upon the sale of the Company or an initial public offering of the Company’s common stock. The value of these shares of common stock were presented at fair value on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. Prior to the Company’s IPO, the fair value of the Company’s common stock was calculated by estimating the Company’s enterprise value by applying an earnings multiple to the Company’s Adjusted EBITDA over the previous 12 months, and deducting outstanding net debt.

When the put option was exercised or expired, the shares were re-measured at fair value on that date and reclassified from temporary equity to shareholders’ equity. Changes in the fair value of the contingently redeemable shares of common stock were recorded in retained earnings.

In connection with the IPO, the put option of employee-owned shares of common stock was eliminated, resulting in the reclassification of $35.4 million to additional paid-in capital and 1,607,760 shares to common shares outstanding.

Stock Compensation

Note 14. Stock Compensation

In April 2010, the Company’s board of directors approved the Allied Specialty Vehicles, Inc. 2010 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2010 Plan”). Under the 2010 Plan, key employees, including employees who may also be directors or officers of the Company, outside directors, key consultants and key contractors of the Company may be granted incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, and other share-based awards. The 2010 Plan provides for the granting of options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at not less than the fair market value of such shares on the date of grant. Stock options terminate not more than ten years from the date of grant. The 2010 Plan allows acceleration of options upon certain events. The Company recognizes compensation expense for stock options, nonvested stock and performance share awards over the requisite service period for vesting of the award, or to an employee’s eligible retirement date, if earlier and applicable. An aggregate of 8,000,000 shares were reserved for future awards under the 2010 Plan. At January 28, 2017, the Company had 4,449,179 remaining shares available for issuance under the 2010 Plan. With the approval of the 2016 Plan (defined below), the Company will no longer issue share-based awards under the 2010 Plan.

In January 2017, the Company’s board of directors approved the REV Group, Inc. 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”). Under the 2016 Plan, key employees, including employees who may also be directors or officers of the Company, outside directors, key consultants and key contractors of the Company may be granted incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, and other share-based awards. The 2016 Plan provides for the granting of options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at not less than the fair market value of such shares on the date of grant. Stock options terminate not more than ten years from the date of grant. The 2016 Plan allows acceleration of share awards upon certain events. The Company recognizes compensation expense for stock options, nonvested stock and performance share awards over the requisite service period for vesting of the award, or to an employee’s eligible retirement date, if earlier and applicable. An aggregate of 8,000,000 shares were reserved for future awards under the 2016 Plan. At January 28, 2017, the Company had 8,000,000 remaining shares available for issuance under the 2016 Plan.

Stock Option Awards: Stock options granted have a term of up to 10 years from the grant date. The vesting of these options are either immediate, upon a triggering event or over a period of time. Exercisability of the triggering event options is contingent upon the occurrence of a change in control of the Company, or in certain of the option grants, an initial public offering. The Company estimates the fair value of all stock option awards on the grant date by applying the Black-Scholes option-pricing valuation model. The application of this valuation model involves assumptions that are highly subjective, judgmental and sensitive in the determination of stock compensation cost. As a result of the Company’s IPO in January 2017, 1,109,240 equity stock options immediately vested. The Company recorded stock compensation expense of $4,352 resulting from the vesting of these stock options. As of January 28, 2017, the Company could potentially recognize $459 of stock compensation expense if certain performance targets were met or were expected by management to be achieved. As of January 28, 2017, the Company had $2,354 of unrecognized stock compensation expense related to time based vesting stock options.

During the three months ended January 28, 2017 and January 30, 2016, the Company recorded expense of $3,251 and $5,141, respectively, to redeem performance based stock options. The amount paid per share to redeem these stock options was equal to the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of redemption less the stock option exercise price.

As of January 28, 2017 and October 29, 2016, there were zero and 1,664,000 stock options outstanding, respectively, which were considered liability share awards as the underlying shares were eligible to be sold back to the Company as a result of put rights in the Shareholders Agreement, within a period of time which would not subject the shareholder to the risks and rewards of share ownership for a reasonable period of time. The fair value of the liability share awards was $0 and $9,117 at January 28, 2017 and October 29, 2016, respectively. Concurrent with the Company’s IPO, the Company’s Shareholders Agreement was terminated, and as such the put rights from that agreement were no longer available to the Company’s shareholders. As such, the fair value of vested outstanding liability share awards were reclassified to additional paid-in capital during the first quarter of 2017. In addition, upon completion of  the Company’s IPO, 1,528,000 of outstanding liability option awards were vested. The vested portion of these outstanding options was re-measured at fair value based upon the $22.00 per share price of the Company’s IPO. The accelerated vesting of the liability awards and remeasurement of the liability to the $22.00 per share resulted in additional stock compensation expense of $16.2 million. The fair value of the liability share awards was $26.5 million on the date of the Company’s IPO.

Restructuring Charges

Note 15. Restructuring Charges

In the first quarter of fiscal year 2016, the Company restructured some of its management functions in the Fire & Emergency segment and initiated the relocation of its Corporate office from Orlando, Florida to Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The Company recognized $2,807 of costs associated with this re-organization and office relocation, which included severance, lease termination and other associated expenses. At January 28, 2017, $228 of the restructuring costs remain unpaid and are included in other current liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2016, the Company implemented a strategic plan to relocate production of Goshen buses to its Salina, KS and Imlay City, MI facilities. Accordingly, $824 of the costs associated with the relocation, including but not limited to personnel costs, including severance and bonuses were recorded during the three months ended January 28, 2017 and $714 of such costs were recognized in fiscal year 2016. At January 28, 2017, $96 of the restructuring costs remain unpaid and are included in other current liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

A summary of the changes in the Company’s restructuring liability is as follows:

Income Taxes

Note 16. Income Taxes

For interim financial reporting, the Company estimates its annual effective tax rate based on the projected income for its entire fiscal year and records a provision (benefit) for income taxes on a quarterly basis based on the estimated annual effective income tax rate, adjusted for any discrete tax items.

The Company’s effective income tax rate was 37.1% and 42.1% for the three months ended January 28, 2017 and January 30, 2016, respectively. The decrease in the Company’s effective income tax rate for the three months ended January 28, 2017 relative to the prior year relates primarily to a prior year discrete benefit for a research tax credit resulting from a federal tax law change. The effective income tax rate for the three months ended January 28, 2017 as compared to the U.S. statutory income tax rate was favorably impacted by income tax incentives for U.S. manufacturing and research activities.

The Company periodically evaluates its valuation allowance requirements in light of changing facts and circumstances, and may adjust its deferred tax asset valuation allowances accordingly. It is reasonably possible that the Company will either add to, or reverse a portion of its existing deferred tax asset valuation allowances in the future. Such changes in the deferred tax asset valuation allowances will be reflected in the current operations through the Company’s effective income tax rate.

The Company’s liability for unrecognized tax benefits, including interest and penalties, was $3,057 as of January 28, 2017 and $2,895 as of October 29, 2016, and was included in other long-term liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision (benefit) for income taxes in its consolidated statement of operations.

The Company regularly assesses the likelihood of an adverse outcome resulting from examinations to determine the adequacy of its tax reserves. As of January 28, 2017, the Company believes that it is more likely than not that the tax positions it has taken will be sustained upon the resolution of its audits resulting in no material impact on its consolidated financial position and the results of operations and cash flows. However, the final determination with respect to any tax audits, and any related litigation, could be materially different from the company’s estimates and/or from its historical income tax provisions and income tax liabilities and could have a material effect on operating results and/or cash flows in the periods for which that determination is made. In addition, future period earnings may be adversely impacted by litigation costs, settlements, penalties, and/or interest assessments related to income tax examinations.

Commitments and Contingencies

Note 17. Commitments and Contingencies

Market Risks: The Company is contingently liable under bid, performance and specialty bonds and has open standby letters of credit issued by the Company’s banks in favor of third parties as follows:

	January 28, 2017		October 29, 2016
Performance, bid and specialty bonds	$	158,324	$	156,972
Open standby letters of credit		6,151		6,151
Total	$	164,475	$	163,123

Chassis Contingent Liabilities: The Company obtains certain vehicle chassis from automobile manufacturers under converter pool agreements. These agreements generally provide that the manufacturer will supply chassis at the Company’s various production facilities under the terms and conditions set forth in the agreement. The manufacturer does not transfer the certificate of origin to the Company and, accordingly, the chassis are treated as consigned inventory of the automobile manufacturer. Upon being put into production, the Company becomes obligated to pay the manufacturer for the chassis. Chassis are typically converted and delivered to customers within 90 to 120 days of receipt. If the chassis are not converted within this timeframe of delivery, the Company generally purchases the chassis and records the inventory or the Company is obligated to begin paying an interest charge on this inventory until purchased. The Company’s contingent liability under such agreements for future chassis inventory purchases was $70,456 and $77,587 at January 28, 2017 and October 29, 2016, respectively.

Repurchase Commitments: The Company has entered into repurchase agreements with certain lending institutions. The repurchase commitments are on an individual unit basis with a term from the date it is financed by the lending institution through payment date by the dealer or other customer, generally not exceeding two years. The Company’s outstanding obligations under such agreements were $228,436 and $213,657 as of January 28, 2017 and October 29, 2016, respectively. This value represents the gross value of all vehicles under repurchase agreements and does not take into consideration proceeds that would be received upon resale of repossessed vehicles, which would be used to reduce the Company’s ultimate net liability. Such agreements are customary in the industries in which the Company operates and the Company’s exposure to loss under such agreements is limited by the potential loss on the resale value of the inventory which is required to be repurchased. Losses incurred under such arrangements have not been significant and the Company expects this pattern to continue into the future. The reserve for losses included in other liabilities on contracts outstanding at January 28, 2017 and October 29, 2016 is immaterial.

Guarantee Arrangements: The Company is party to multiple agreements whereby it guarantees indebtedness of others, including losses under loss pool agreements. The Company estimated that its maximum loss exposure under these contracts was $626 at January 28, 2017 and October 29, 2016. Under the terms of these and various related agreements and upon the occurrence of certain events, the Company generally has the ability to, among other things, take possession of the underlying collateral. If the financial condition of the customers and/or dealers were to deteriorate and result in their inability to make payments, then additional accruals may be required. While the Company does not expect to experience losses under these agreements that are materially in excess of the amounts reserved, it cannot provide any assurance that the financial condition of the third parties will not deteriorate resulting in the third party’s inability to meet their obligations.

In the event that this occurs, the Company cannot guarantee that the collateral underlying the agreements will be sufficient to avoid losses materially in excess of the amounts reserved. Any losses under these guarantees would generally be mitigated by the value of any underlying collateral, including financed equipment, and are generally subject to the finance company’s ability to provide the Company clear title to foreclosed equipment and other conditions. During periods of economic weakness, collateral values generally decline and can contribute to higher exposure to losses.

Other Matters: The Company is subject to certain legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. Although the final results of all such matters and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that the ultimate resolution of all such matters and claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Actual results could vary, among other things, due to the uncertainties involved in litigation.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

Business Segment Information

Note 19. Business Segment Information

The Company is organized into three reportable segments based on management’s process for making operating decisions, allocating capital and measuring performance, and based on the similarity of products, customers served, common use of facilities, and economic characteristics. The Company’s segments are as follows:

Fire & Emergency: This segment includes KME, E-One, Inc., American Emergency Vehicles, Inc., Leader Emergency Vehicles, Inc., Horton Enterprises, Inc. and Wheeled Coach, Inc. These business units manufacture and market commercial and custom fire and emergency vehicles primarily for fire departments, airports, other governmental units, contractors, hospitals and other care providers in the United States and other countries.

Commercial: This segment includes Collins Bus, Champion Bus, Inc., Goshen Coach, Inc., ENC, ElDorado National (Kansas), Inc., Eldorado Mobility, Capacity and Lay-Mor. Collins Bus manufactures, markets and distributes school buses, normally referred to as Type A school buses, as well as shuttle buses used for churches, transit authorities, hotels and resorts, retirement centers and other similar uses. Champion Bus, Inc., Goshen Coach, Inc., ENC, ElDorado National (Kansas), Inc. and Eldorado Mobility, Inc. manufacture, market and distribute shuttle buses and mobility vans for transit, airport car rental and hotel/motel shuttles, tour and charter operations and other uses under well-established brand names such as under Krystal and Federal Coach. Capacity manufactures, markets and distributes trucks used in terminal type operations, i.e., rail yards, warehouses, rail terminals and shipping terminals/ports. Lay-Mor manufactures, markets and distributes industrial sweepers for both the commercial and rental markets.

Recreation: This segment includes REV Recreation Group, Inc. (“RRG”), Goldshield Fiberglass, Inc. (“Goldshield”) and Renegade, and their respective manufacturing facilities, service and parts divisions. RRG primarily manufactures, markets and distributes Class A and Class C mobile recreational vehicles in both gas and diesel models. Goldshield manufactures, markets and distributes fiberglass reinforced molded parts to a diverse cross section of OEM and other commercial and industrial customers, including various components for RRG, which is one of Goldshield’s primary customers.

In considering the financial performance of the business, the chief operating decision maker analyzes the primary financial performance measure of Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income for the relevant period before depreciation and amortization, interest expense and provision (benefit) for income taxes, as adjusted for transaction expenses, sponsor expenses, restructuring costs, and stock based compensation, which the Company believes are not indicative of the Company’s ongoing operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure defined by U.S. GAAP, but is computed using amounts that are determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. A reconciliation of this performance measure to loss before benefit for income taxes is included below.

The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors and used by management for measuring profitability because the measure excludes the impact of certain items which management believes has less bearing on the Company’s core operating performance. The Company believes that utilizing Adjusted EBITDA allows for a more meaningful comparison of operating fundamentals between companies within the Company’s industry by eliminating the impact of capital structure and taxation differences between the companies.

The Company also adjusts for exceptional items which are determined to be those that in management’s judgment need to be disclosed by virtue of their size, nature or incidence, which include non-cash items and items settled in cash. In determining whether an event or transaction is exceptional, management considers quantitative as well as qualitative factors such as the frequency or predictability of occurrence. This is consistent with the way that financial performance is measured by management and reported to our Board of Directors, assists in providing a meaningful analysis of the Company’s operating performance and used as a measurement in incentive compensation for management.

For purposes of measuring performance of its business segments, the Company does not allocate to individual business segments costs or items that are of a corporate nature. The caption “corporate and other” includes corporate office expenses, results of insignificant operations, intersegment eliminations and income and expense not allocated to reportable segments.

Identifiable assets of the business segments exclude general corporate assets, which principally consist of cash and cash equivalents, certain property, plant and equipment and certain other assets pertaining to corporate activities.

Intersegment sales generally include amounts invoiced by a segment for work performed for another segment. Amounts are based on actual work performed and agreed-upon pricing which is intended to be reflective of the contribution made by the supplying business segment. All intersegment transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Selected financial information of the Company’s segments is as follows:
