Notes to the Condensed Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

(All tabular amounts presented in millions, except share and per share amounts)

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of REV Group, Inc. (“REV” or “the Company”) and all its subsidiaries. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments, unless otherwise noted) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (U.S. GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. These unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of the Company for the year ended October 31, 2021. The interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.

Equity Sponsor: The Company’s primary equity holders are funds and an investment vehicle associated with AIP CF IV, LLC, which the Company collectively refers to as “American Industrial Partners,” “AIP” or “Sponsor” and which indirectly own approximately 43.7% of REV Group’s voting equity as of January 31, 2022. AIP is an operations and engineering-focused private equity firm headquartered in New York, New York.

Related Party Transactions: During the three months ended January 31, 2022, the Company reimbursed expenses of its primary equity holder of $0.1 million. During the three months ended January 31, 2021, the Company reimbursed expenses of its primary equity holder of $0.2 million. These expenses are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company’s Condensed Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Pronouncement Recently Adopted

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740), “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”. The standard simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC 740 such as recognizing deferred taxes for equity investments, the incremental approach to performing intra-period tax allocation and calculating income taxes in interim periods. The standard also simplifies accounting for income taxes under U.S. GAAP by clarifying and amending existing guidance, including the recognition of deferred taxes for goodwill, the allocation of taxes to members of a consolidated group and requiring that an entity reflect the effect of enacted changes in tax laws or rates in the annual effective tax rate computation in the interim period that includes the enactment date. The Company adopted ASU 2019-12 as of November 1, 2021. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Note 2. Revenue Recognition

Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is recognized from contracts with customers with product shipment destinations in the United States and Canada. The Company accounts for a contract when it has approval and commitment from both parties, the rights and payment terms of the parties are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable. The Company determines the transaction price for each contract at inception based on the consideration that it expects to receive for the goods and services promised under the contract. The transaction price excludes sales and usage-based taxes and certain “pass-through” amounts collected on behalf of third parties. The Company has elected to expense incremental costs to obtain a contract when the amortization period of the related asset is expected to be less than one year.

The Company’s primary source of revenue is generated from the manufacture and sale of specialty vehicles through its direct sales force or dealer network. The Company also generates revenue through separate contracts that relate to the sale of aftermarket parts and services. Revenue is typically recognized at a point-in-time, when control is transferred, which generally occurs when the product has been shipped to the customer or when it has been picked-up from the Company’s manufacturing facilities. Shipping and handling costs that occur after the transfer of control are fulfillment costs that are recorded in “Cost of Sales” in the Condensed Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss when incurred or when the related product revenue is recognized, whichever is earlier. Periodically, certain customers request bill and hold transactions. In such cases, revenue is not recognized until

8

after control has transferred which is generally when the customer has requested such transaction and has been notified that the product (i) has been completed according to customer specifications, (ii) has passed our quality control inspections, and (iii) has been separated from our inventory and is ready for physical transfer to the customer. Warranty obligations associated with the sale of a unit are assurance-type warranties that are a guarantee of the unit’s intended functionality and, therefore, do not represent a distinct performance obligation within the context of the contract.

Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities

The Company is generally entitled to bill its customers upon satisfaction of its performance obligations, and payment is usually received shortly after billing. Payments for certain contracts are received in advance of satisfying the related performance obligations. Such payments are recorded as customer advances in the Company’s Condensed Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets when received. The corresponding performance obligations are generally satisfied within one year of the contract inception. During the three months ended January 31, 2022 and January 31, 2021, the Company recognized $31.1 million and $51.4 million, respectively, of revenue that was included in the customer advance balances of $210.6 million and $170.1 million as of October 31, 2021 and October 31, 2020, respectively. The Company’s payment terms do not include a significant financing component and the Company does not have significant contract assets.

Note 3. Leases

During the three months ended January 31, 2022 and January 31, 2021, the Company recognized total operating lease costs of $2.0 million and $2.3 million, respectively, and paid cash of $2.3 million and $2.4 million, respectively, for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities.

At January 31, 2022, future minimum operating lease payments due under ASC 842 are summarized by fiscal year in the table below:

Remaining nine months of fiscal year 2022	$	6.9
2023		6.0
2024		3.8
2025		2.4
2026		1.3
Thereafter		6.7
Total undiscounted lease payments		27.1
Less: imputed interest		(3.7	)
Total lease liabilities		23.4

As of January 31, 2022, the weighted average remaining lease term and the weighted average discount rate for operating leases was 5.6 years and 5.1%, respectively.

As of January 31, 2021, the weighted average remaining lease term and the weighted average discount rate for operating leases was 4.4 years and 5.0%, respectively.

As of January 31, 2022, fully amortized intangible assets and the related accumulated amortization related to Customer Relationships and Non-compete agreements were written off.

Note 7. Divestiture Activities

In the first quarter of fiscal year 2021, in connection with a strategic review of the product portfolio, the Company made the decision to divest of its REV Brazil business. The assets and liabilities to be disposed of in connection with this transaction met the held for sale criteria as of January 31, 2021. The carrying value of the net assets held for sale, inclusive of the cumulative translation adjustment balance attributable to this business, was greater than their fair value, less costs to sell, resulting in a loss of $3.8 million, which is included in the Condensed Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss for the three months ended January 31, 2021. The REV Brazil business is reported as part of the Fire & Emergency segment.

The Company previously made an initial investment in its China joint venture, Anhui Chery REV Specialty Vehicle Technology Co., Ltd (“China JV”), in exchange for 10% equity interest in its China JV. The Company recorded this investment under the equity method of accounting. The Company’s investment in the China JV also includes an interest-bearing loan.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2021, the Company made the strategic decision to exit its interests in the China JV and began soliciting offers to sell the investment and settle the loan. In connection with this decision, the Company recorded a loss of $6.2 million, which represents the difference between the carrying value of the investment and loan and the estimated proceeds to be received upon sale and settlement, respectively. This amount was recorded as a non-operating loss within our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2021. The Company expects to complete the sale of the investment during the second quarter of fiscal year 2022.

Note 8. Restructuring and Other Related Charges

In September 2021, the Company announced that it would close its Kovatch Mobile Equipment (“KME”) production facilities located in Nesquehoning, PA and Roanoke, VA and relocate the production to other existing Fire and Emergency (“F&E”) segment facilities within the U.S. The production facilities are being closed to better align our manufacturing footprint, to access our broad operational expertise and resources, enhance quality and improve delivery times by leveraging the advanced manufacturing capabilities that we have throughout the F&E segment. The Company plans to fully shift operations within fiscal year 2022. In the first quarter of fiscal year 2022, the Company recorded restructuring charges of $3.7 million. In the first quarter of fiscal year 2022, the Company incurred additional charges of $2.1 million related to this restructuring action consisting of $1.4 million of accelerated depreciation and $0.7 million of other restructuring related charges.

The Company expects to incur additional restructuring costs between $2.0 to $5.0 million and restructuring related and other charges of $2.0 and $3.0 million related to this activity.

Pre-tax restructuring charges were as follows:

	Employee Severance and Termination Benefits		Contract termination and other costs		Asset Impairments		Three Months Ended January 31, 2022
Fire & Emergency	$	2.8	$	0.9	$	—	$	3.7

Note 9. Long-Term Debt

The Company was obligated under the following debt instrument:

	January 31, 2022		October 31, 2021
2021 ABL facility	$	256.0	$	215.0

2021 ABL Facility

On April 13, 2021, the Company entered into a $550.0 million revolving credit agreement (the “2021 ABL Facility” or “2021 ABL Agreement”) with a syndicate of lenders. The 2021 ABL Facility provides for revolving loans and letters of credit in an aggregate amount of up to $550.0 million. The total credit facility is subject to a $30.0 million sublimit for swing line loans and a $35.0 million sublimit for letters of credit (plus up to an additional $20.0 million of letters of credit at issuing bank’s discretion), along with certain borrowing base and other customary restrictions as defined in the 2021 ABL Agreement. The 2021 ABL Agreement allows for incremental facilities in an aggregate amount of up to $100.0 million, plus the excess, if any, of the borrowing base then in effect over total commitments then in effect. Any such incremental facilities are subject to receiving additional commitments from lenders and certain other customary conditions. The debt issuance costs capitalized in connection with the 2021 ABL Facility less accumulated amortization are included in other long-term assets in the Company’s Condensed Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets.

12

The 2021 ABL Facility matures on April 13, 2026. The Company may prepay principal, in whole or in part, at any time without penalty.

All revolving loans under the 2021 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. Applicable interest rate margins are initially 0.75% for all base rate loans and 1.75% for all Eurodollar rate loans (with the Eurodollar rate having a floor of 0.25%), subject to adjustment based on the Company’s fixed charge coverage ratio in accordance with the 2021 ABL Agreement. Interest is payable quarterly for all base rate loans and is payable the last day of any interest period or every three months for all Eurodollar rate loans. The weighted-average interest rate on borrowings outstanding under the 2021 ABL Facility was 1.81% as of January 31, 2022.

The lenders under the 2021 ABL Facility have a first priority security interest in substantially all personal property assets and certain real property assets of the Company. The 2021 ABL Facility’s borrowing base is comprised of eligible receivables and eligible inventory, plus a fixed asset sublimit of certain eligible real property and eligible equipment, which fixed asset sublimit reduces by quarterly amortization as specified in the 2021 ABL Agreement.

The 2021 ABL Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants, subject in certain cases to customary limitations, exceptions and exclusions. The 2021 ABL Agreement also contains certain customary events of default. The occurrence of an event of default under the 2021 ABL Agreement could result in the termination of the commitments under the 2021 ABL Facility and the acceleration of all outstanding borrowings under it. The 2021 ABL Agreement requires the Company to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.10 to 1.00 during certain compliance periods as specified in the 2021 ABL Agreement.

The Company was in compliance with all financial covenants under the 2021 ABL Agreement as of January 31, 2022. As of January 31, 2022, the Company’s availability under the 2021 ABL Facility was $258.3 million.

The fair value of the 2021 ABL Facility approximated book value on January 31, 2022 and October 31, 2021.

Note 10. 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.

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

	Three Months Ended January 31,
	2022			2021
Balance at beginning of period	$	37.6		$	37.0
Warranty provisions		5.5			8.3
Settlements made		(6.6	)		(8.6	)
Warranties for prior year acquisition		—			1.2
Balance at end of period	$	36.5		$	37.9

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

	January 31, 2022		October 31, 2021
Current liabilities	$	21.7	$	22.3
Other long-term liabilities		14.8		15.3
Total warranty liability	$	36.5	$	37.6

Note 11. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per common share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income, if applicable, 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, performance stock units and restricted stock units and awards. The reconciliation of basic weighted-average shares outstanding to diluted weighted-average shares outstanding was as follows:

	Three Months Ended January 31,
	2022		2021
Basic weighted-average common shares outstanding		62,803,784		63,445,973
Dilutive stock options		—		—
Dilutive restricted stock awards		—		—
Dilutive restricted stock units		—		—
Dilutive performance stock units		—		—
Diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding		62,803,784		63,445,973

The table below represents exclusions from the calculation of diluted weighted-average shares outstanding because they would have been anti-dilutive:

	Three Months Ended January 31,
	2022		2021
Anti-dilutive stock options		48,500		266,800
Anti-dilutive restricted stock awards		1,195,144		1,117,553
Anti-dilutive restricted stock units		789,952		791,857
Anti-dilutive performance stock units		—		763,326
Anti-dilutive common stock equivalents		2,033,596		2,939,536

Note 12. 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 or 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 recorded an income tax benefit of $1.8 million for the three months ended January 31, 2022, or 71.9% of pre-tax loss, compared to $0.0 million, for the three months ended January 31, 2021. Results for the three months ended January 31, 2022 were favorably impacted by $1.2 million of net discrete tax benefits primarily related to stock-based compensation tax deductions.

The Company periodically evaluates its valuation allowance requirements as facts and circumstances change 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 $4.1 million as of January 31, 2022 and $4.0 million as of October 31, 2021. The unrecognized tax benefits are presented in other long-term liabilities in the Company’s Condensed Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets as of January 31, 2022 and the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of October 31, 2021. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes in its Condensed Unaudited Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.

The Company regularly assesses the likelihood of an adverse outcome resulting from examinations to determine the adequacy of its tax reserves. As of January 31, 2022, 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 13. Commitments and Contingencies

Personal Injury Actions and Other: Product and general liability claims arise against the Company from time to time in the ordinary course of business. These claims are generally covered by third-party insurance, which for some insurance policies is subject to a retention for which the Company is responsible. Management, however, believes that any losses will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

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 31, 2022		October 31, 2021
Performance, bid and specialty bonds	$	473.3	$	480.0
Open standby letters of credit		13.4		23.6
Total	$	486.7	$	503.6

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 upon delivery. Accordingly, the chassis are not owned by the Company when delivered, therefore, are excluded from the Company’s inventory. Upon being put into production, the Company owns the inventory and becomes obligated to pay the manufacturer for the chassis. Chassis are typically placed into production within 90 to 120 days of delivery to the Company. If the chassis are not placed into production within this timeframe, the Company generally purchases the chassis and records inventory, or the Company is obligated to begin paying an interest charge on this inventory until purchased. 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 value of the vehicle chassis that would be resold to mitigate any losses. The Company’s contingent liability under such agreements was $7.6 million and $13.9 million as of January 31, 2022 and October 31, 2021, respectively.

Repurchase Commitments: The Company has 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 also repurchases inventory from dealers from time to time due to state law or regulatory requirements that require manufacturers to repurchase inventory if a dealership exits the business. The Company’s maximum contingent liability under such agreements were $195.9 million and $185.8 million as of January 31, 2022, and October 31, 2021, respectively, which represents the gross value of all vehicles under repurchase agreements. 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 resale value of the units which is required to be repurchased. Losses incurred under such arrangements have not been significant and the Company expects this pattern to continue. The reserve for losses included in other liabilities on contracts outstanding at January 31, 2022 and October 31, 2021 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 $13.3 million and $14.8 million at January 31, 2022 and October 31, 2021, respectively. 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. 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. Additionally, the Company cannot guarantee that the collateral underlying the agreements will be available or sufficient to avoid losses materially in excess of the amount reserved.

Other Matters: The Company is, from time to time, party to various legal proceedings arising out of ordinary course of business. The amount of alleged liability, if any, from these proceedings cannot be determined with certainty; however, the Company believes that its ultimate liability, if any, arising from pending legal proceedings, as well as from asserted legal claims and known potential legal claims, which are probable of assertion, taking into account established accruals for estimated liabilities, should not be material to the business, financial condition or results of operations.

A consolidated federal putative securities class action and a consolidated state putative securities class action that had been pending against the Company and certain of its officers and directors have each been settled. These actions collectively purported to assert claims on behalf of putative classes of purchasers of the Company’s common stock in or traceable to its January 2017 IPO, purchasers in its secondary offering of common stock in October 2017, and purchasers from October 10, 2017 through June 7, 2018. The state action also named certain of the underwriters for the Company’s IPO or secondary offering as defendants. The federal and state courts

15

each consolidated multiple separate actions pending before them, the first of which was filed on June 8, 2018. The actions alleged certain violations of the Securities Act of 1933 and, for the federal action, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Collectively, the actions sought certification of the putative classes asserted and compensatory damages and attorneys’ fees and costs. The consolidated state action was stayed in favor of the consolidated federal action. On May 19, 2021, the parties to the consolidated federal and state putative securities class actions executed a stipulation of settlement for a class settlement with the court and moved for preliminary approval of the settlement. The settlement payment is being fully covered by the Company’s insurers. The settlement payment and the related insurance proceeds were recorded in other current liabilities and other current assets, respectively, in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets as of October 31, 2021. On August 24, 2021, the court preliminarily approved the settlement. Notice was then given to the classes certified for settlement, and the court entered a final judgment approving the settlement on December 9, 2021. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2022, the Company’s insurers made the final settlement payment. As of January 31, 2022, there are no further amounts recorded in the Condensed Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Two purported derivative actions, which have since been consolidated, were also filed in 2019 against the Company’s directors (with the Company as a nominal defendant), premised on allegations similar to those asserted in the consolidated federal securities litigation. The parties to the consolidated derivative actions reached a settlement in principle on all issues other than plaintiffs’ counsel’s attorneys’ fees on or about February 17, 2021, and an agreement with respect to plaintiffs’ counsel’s attorneys’ fees on or about November 3, 2021. The plaintiffs filed a stipulation of settlement for the derivative actions with the court and moved for preliminary approval of the settlement on January 14, 2022.

Note 14. 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 Emergency One (“E-ONE”), KME, Ferrara, and Spartan Emergency Response (“Spartan ER”), American Emergency Vehicles, Leader Emergency Vehicles, Horton Emergency Vehicles and REV Group Orlando. These business units manufacture, market and distribute 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, ENC, Capacity and Lay-Mor. Collins Bus manufactures, markets and distributes school buses, normally referred to as Type A school buses. ENC manufactures, markets and distributes municipal transit buses, primarily used for public transportation. 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 (“RRG”), Goldshield Fiberglass, Inc. (“Goldshield”), Renegade, Midwest and Lance, and their respective manufacturing facilities, service and parts divisions. RRG primarily manufactures, markets and distributes Class A RVs in both gas and diesel models. Renegade primarily manufacturers, markets and distributes Class C and “Super C” RVs. Midwest manufactures, markets and distributes Class B RVs and luxury vans. Lance manufactures, markets and distributes truck campers and towable campers. Goldshield manufactures, markets and distributes fiberglass reinforced molded parts to a diverse cross section of original equipment manufacturers and other commercial and industrial customers, including various components for RRG, which is one of Goldshield’s primary customers.

For purposes of measuring financial 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, Other & Elims” includes corporate office expenses, results of insignificant operations, intersegment eliminations and income and expense not allocated to reportable segments.

Total 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 and other centralized 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:

Adjusted EBITDA	$	10.2	$	7.1	$	15.1	$	(9.2	)

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, income taxes and loss on early extinguishment of debt, as adjusted for items management 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 net loss is included below.

The Company believes 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 have less bearing on the Company’s core operating performance, and allows for a more meaningful comparison of operating fundamentals between companies within its industries by eliminating the impact of capital structure and taxation differences between the companies. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA is used by management to measure and report the Company’s financial performance to the Company’s Board of Directors, assists in providing a meaningful analysis of the Company’s operating performance and is used as a measurement in incentive compensation for management.

Note 15. Stock Repurchase Program

On September 2, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the authorization of a new share repurchase program that allowed the repurchase of up to $150.0 million of the Company’s outstanding common stock. The share repurchase authorization expires in 24 months and gives management the flexibility to determine conditions under which shares may be purchased. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2022, the Company repurchased 1,980,159 shares under this repurchase program at a total cost of $24.4 million at an average price of $12.29 per share.

Note 16. Subsequent Events

Quarterly Dividend

On March 3, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend in the amount of $0.05 per share of common stock, which equates to a rate of $0.20 per share of common stock on an annualized basis, payable on April 15, 2022 to shareholders of record on March 31, 2022.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

This management’s discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Condensed Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and risk factors contained in this Form 10-Q as well as the Management’s Discussion and Analysis and Risk Factors and audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on December 15, 2021.

Overview

REV Group companies are leading designers, manufacturers and distributors of specialty vehicles and related aftermarket parts and services. We serve a diversified customer base, primarily in the United States, through three segments: Fire and Emergency (“F&E”), Commercial, and Recreation. We provide customized vehicle solutions for applications, including essential needs for public services (ambulances, fire apparatus, school buses, and transit buses), commercial infrastructure (terminal trucks and industrial sweepers) and consumer leisure (recreational vehicles). Our diverse portfolio is made up of well-established principal vehicle brands, including many of the most recognizable names within their industry. Several of our brands pioneered their specialty vehicle product categories and date back more than 50 years. We believe that we hold the first, second and third market share positions, and approximately 87% of our net sales during the first quarter of fiscal year 2022 came from products where we believe we hold such share position.

Segments

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

Fire & Emergency – The F&E segment sells and distributes fire apparatus equipment under the Emergency One (“E-ONE”), Kovatch Mobile Equipment (“KME”), Ferrara, and Spartan Emergency Response (“Spartan ER”), which consists of Spartan Emergency Response, Smeal, and Ladder Tower brands, and ambulances under the American Emergency Vehicles (“AEV”), Horton Emergency Vehicles (“Horton”), Leader Emergency Vehicles (“Leader”), Road Rescue and Wheeled Coach 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), 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 water tank to extinguish fires), ladder trucks (fire apparatus with stainless steel or aluminum ladders), tanker trucks and rescue, aircraft rescue firefighting (“ARFF”), custom cabs & chassis 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 F&E product line.

Commercial – Our Commercial segment serves the bus market through the Collins Bus and ENC brands. We serve the terminal truck market through the Capacity brand and the sweeper market through the Lay-Mor brand. Our products in the Commercial segment include transit buses (large municipal buses where we build our own chassis and body), Type A school buses (small school bus built on commercial chassis), sweepers (three- and four-wheel versions used in road construction activities), and terminal trucks (specialized vehicles which move freight in warehouses, intermodal yards, distribution and fulfillment centers and ports). Within each market, we produce many customized configurations to address the diverse needs of our customers.

Recreation – Our Recreation segment serves the RV market through the following principal brands: American Coach, Fleetwood RV, Holiday Rambler, Renegade, Midwest and Lance. We believe our brand portfolio contains some of the longest standing, most recognized brands in the RV industry. Under these brands, REV provides a variety of highly recognized motorized and towable RV models such as: American Eagle, Bounder, Pace Arrow, Discovery LXE, Verona, Weekender and Lance, among others. Our products in the Recreation segment include Class A motorized RVs (motorhomes built on a heavy-duty chassis with either diesel or gas engine configurations), Class C and “Super C” motorized RVs (motorhomes built on a commercial truck or van chassis), Class B RVs (motorhomes built out within a van chassis and high-end luxury van conversions), and towable travel trailers and truck campers. The Recreation segment also includes Goldshield Fiberglass, which produces a wide range of custom molded fiberglass products for the heavy-duty truck, RV and broader industrial markets.

19

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, municipal tax receipts, 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. In addition, we are susceptible to supply chain disruptions resulting from the impact of tariffs and global macro-economic factors (refer to “Impact of COVID-19” section below), which can have a dramatic effect, either directly or indirectly, on the availability, lead-times and costs associated with raw materials and parts.

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. RV 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, the F&E segment and the Commercial segment are also impacted by the overall economic environment. Local tax revenues are an important source of funding for fire and emergency response departments. Fire and emergency products and buses are typically a larger cost item for municipalities and their service life is relatively long, making the purchase more deferrable, which can result in reduced demand for our products. In addition to commercial demand, local, state and federal tax revenues can be an important source of funding for many of our bus products including Type A school buses and transit buses. Volatility in tax revenues or availability of funds via budgetary appropriation can have a negative impact on the demand for these 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.

Seasonality

In a typical year, our operating results are impacted by seasonality. Historically, the slowest sales volume quarter has been the first fiscal quarter when the purchasing seasons and production days for vehicles, such as school buses, RVs and sweepers are the lowest due to the colder weather and the relatively long time until the summer vacation season, and the fact that the school year is underway with municipalities and school bus contractors utilizing their existing fleets to transport student populations and the holiday plant shutdowns. Sales of our products have typically been higher in the second, third and fourth fiscal quarters (with the fourth fiscal quarter typically being the strongest) due to better weather, the vacation season, buying habits of RV dealers and end-users, timing of government/municipal customer fiscal years, and the beginning of a new school year. Our quarterly results of operations, cash flows, and liquidity are likely to be impacted by these seasonal patterns. Sales and earnings for other vehicles that we produce, such as essential emergency vehicles and commercial bus fleets, are less seasonal, but fluctuations in sales of these vehicles can also be impacted by timing surrounding the fiscal years of municipalities and commercial customers, as well as the timing and amounts of multi-unit orders.

Impact of Acquisitions

We actively evaluate opportunities to improve and expand our business through targeted acquisitions that are consistent with our strategy. We also may dispose of certain components of our business that no longer fit within our overall strategy. Historically, a significant component of our growth has been through acquisitions of businesses. 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, purchases, improvements to production processes, and other restructuring initiatives. The benefits of these integration efforts and divestiture activities may not positively impact our financial results until subsequent periods.

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

20

increase in amortization expense. In addition, assets acquired and liabilities assumed generally include tangible assets as well as contingent assets and liabilities.

Impact of COVID-19

During our second quarter of fiscal year 2020, the novel coronavirus known as "COVID-19" spread throughout the world creating a global pandemic. The pandemic triggered a significant downturn in global commerce and these challenging market conditions may continue for an extended period of time. As a result of the spread of COVID-19, we have also experienced disruption and delays in our supply chain, availability of labor, customer demand changes, and logistics challenges, including our customers’ ability to inspect and take delivery of vehicles.

As the global economy continues to recover from COVID-19 related disruption, labor and significant supply chain challenges, such as shortages in semiconductors, subcomponents and increased prices of raw materials, such as steel and aluminum, have impacted operations of companies on a global scale. Such supply chain disruptions during the first quarter of fiscal year 2022 impacted our ability to obtain certain raw materials and purchased components that are necessary to our production processes, including the ability to obtain chassis from third party suppliers. We continue to monitor these disruptions and take measures to mitigate the associated risks.

In certain geographies there has been a resurgence of COVID-19 variant cases and governmental authorities continue to implement numerous measures in an attempt to contain and mitigate the spread of COVID-19 and its variants. While the global market impacts, closures and limitations on movement are expected to be temporary, the duration of any demand changes, production and supply chain disruptions, and related financial impacts, cannot be reliably estimated at this time.

Net Sales	Three Months Ended
($ in millions)	January 31, 2022		Change			January 31, 2021
Net sales	$	537.0		-3.1	%	$	554.0

Net Sales: Consolidated net sales decreased $17.0 million for the three months ended January 31, 2022 compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to a decrease in net sales within the F&E segment, partially offset by an increase in net sales within the Commercial and Recreation segments. The decrease in sales in the F&E segment was primarily due to decreased unit shipments of fire apparatus and ambulance units resulting from supply chain and labor constraints compared to the prior year quarter, partially offset by price realization. The increase in sales in the Commercial segment was primarily the result of increased shipments of school buses, terminal trucks and street sweepers, and price realization, partially offset by decreased shipments of municipal transit buses compared to the prior year quarter. The increase in sales in the Recreation segment was primarily the result of price realization, partially offset

by lower line rates and decreased unit shipments related to supply chain disruption and labor constraints compared to the prior year quarter.

Commercial segment net sales increased $14.4 million for the three months ended January 31, 2022 compared to the prior year quarter. The increase in net sales compared to the prior year quarter was primarily due to increased shipments of school buses, terminal trucks and street sweepers, and price realization, partially offset by decreased shipments of municipal transit buses.

Commercial segment Adjusted EBITDA increased $0.7 million for the three months ended January 31, 2022 compared to the prior year quarter. The increase was primarily due to higher shipments of school bus and terminal trucks and price realization, partially offset by inflationary pressures, an unfavorable mix of school buses and municipal transit buses, and greater sales contribution of lower margin terminal trucks and street sweepers.

Recreation segment net sales increased $12.4 million for the three months ended January 31, 2022 compared to the prior year quarter. The increase was primarily due to strong price realization and favorable mix, partially offset by lower line rates and unit shipments related to supply chain disruption and labor constraints in certain businesses.

Recreation segment Adjusted EBITDA increased $2.0 million for the three months ended January 31, 2022 compared to the prior year quarter. The increase was primarily due to strong price realization and favorable mix, partially offset by inefficiencies resulting from supply chain disruption and labor constraints, and inflationary pressures.

Backlog

Backlog represents firm orders received from dealers or directly from end customers. The following table presents a summary of our backlog by segment:

($ in millions)	January 31, 2022		January 31, 2021
Fire & Emergency	$	1,655.1	$	1,017.9
Commercial		459.8		234.0
Recreation		1,282.6		754.3
Total Backlog	$	3,397.5	$	2,006.2

Each of our three segments has a backlog of new vehicle orders that generally extends out from two to twelve months in duration.

Orders from our dealers and end customers are evidenced by a contract, firm purchase order or reserved production slot for delivery of one or many vehicles. These orders are reported in our backlog at the aggregate selling prices, net of discounts or allowances.

24

As of January 31, 2022, our backlog was $3,397.5 million compared to $2,006.2 million as of January 31, 2021. The increase in consolidated backlog was primarily due to strong order intake within the F&E, Commercial and Recreation segments. The increase in F&E segment backlog was primarily the result of strong orders for fire apparatus and ambulance units. The increase in Commercial segment backlog was primarily the result of increased orders for school buses, terminal trucks and street sweepers, partially offset by a decline in orders for municipal transit buses. The increase in Recreation segment backlog was primarily the result of strong order intake across all product categories.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

Our primary requirements for liquidity and capital are working capital, the improvement and expansion of existing manufacturing facilities, debt service payments 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 term loan and ABL credit facility.

We believe that our sources of liquidity and capital will be sufficient to finance our continued operations, including working capital requirements, dividends, share repurchases and growth strategy for at least twelve months. However, we cannot assure you that cash provided by operating activities and borrowings under the current 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 the current 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 additional capital is obtained by issuing equity, the interests of our existing stockholders will be diluted. If we incur additional indebtedness, that indebtedness may contain financial and other covenants that may significantly restrict our operations or may involve higher overall interest rates.

Cash Flow

The following table shows summary cash flows for the three months ended January 31, 2022 and January 31, 2021:

	Three Months Ended January 31,
($ in millions)	2022			2021
Net cash (used in) provided by operating activities	$	(3.7	)	$	1.9
Net cash (used in) provided by investing activities		(4.4	)		7.1
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities		8.7			(11.3	)
Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents	$	0.6		$	(2.3	)

Net Cash (Used in) Provided by Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended January 31, 2022 was $3.7 million and was primarily related to decreases from the timing of accounts receivable collections and inventory receipts as well as incentive compensation payments, partially offset by increases from the timing of payables payments and customer advances, and a tax refund related to the CARES Act received during the quarter. The generation of positive cash from operating activities for the three months ended January 31, 2021, was related to a tax refund related to the CARES Act, partially offset by decreases from the timing of payables.

Net Cash (Used in) Provided by Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended January 31, 2022 was $4.4 million and was related to the cash paid for capital expenditures. Net cash provided by investing activities for the three months ended January 31, 2021 was $7.1 million and was primarily related to the proceeds from the sale of land $8.7 million partially offset by cash paid for capital expenditures.

25

Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended January 31, 2022 was $8.7 million, which primarily consisted of net proceeds from our 2021 ABL Facility for $41.0 million offset by share repurchases of $24.4 million, dividends paid of $3.3 million and the payment of taxes on vested awards and other financing activities of $4.6 million. Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended January 31, 2021 was $11.3 million, which primarily consisted of repayment of long-term debt.

Dividends

Subject to legally available funds and the discretion of our board of directors, we expect to pay a quarterly cash dividend at the rate of $0.05 per share on our common stock. 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. A quarterly cash dividend was declared in the amount of $.05 per share of common stock payable on April 15, 2022, to shareholders of record on March 31, 2022. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2022, we paid cash dividends of $3.3 million.

2021 ABL Facility

On April 13, 2021, the Company entered into a $550.0 million revolving credit agreement (the “2021 ABL Facility” or “2021 ABL Agreement”) with a syndicate of lenders. The 2021 ABL Facility provides for revolving loans and letters of credit in an aggregate amount of up to $550.0 million. The total credit facility is subject to a $30.0 million sublimit for swing line loans and a $35.0 million sublimit for letters of credit (plus up to an additional $20.0 million of letters of credit at issuing bank’s discretion), along with certain borrowing base and other customary restrictions as defined in the 2021 ABL Agreement. The 2021 ABL Agreement allows for incremental facilities in an aggregate amount of up to $100.0 million, plus the excess, if any, of the borrowing base then in effect over total commitments then in effect. Any such incremental facilities are subject to receiving additional commitments from lenders and certain other customary conditions.    

The 2021 ABL Facility matures on April 13, 2026. We may prepay principal, in whole or in part, at any time without penalty.

We were in compliance with all financial covenants under the 2021 ABL Agreement as of January 31, 2022. As of January 31, 2022, the Company’s availability under the 2021 ABL Facility was $258.3 million.

Refer to Note 9, Long-Term Debt, of the Notes to Condensed Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for further details.

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 loss for the relevant period before depreciation and amortization, interest expense, income taxes and loss on early extinguishment of debt, 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 loss, as adjusted for certain items described below that we believe are not indicative of our ongoing operating performance.

We believe Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income are useful to investors because these performance measures are used by our management and our Board of Directors for measuring and reporting our financial performance and as a measurement in incentive compensation for management. 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 our 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 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 adjust Net Income for the following items: non-cash depreciation and amortization, interest expense, income taxes, loss on early extinguishment of debt and other items as described below. Stock-based compensation expense and sponsor expense reimbursement is excluded from both Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA because it is an expense, 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 are not indicative of our ongoing operating performance and need to be disclosed by virtue of their size, nature or incidence, and include non-cash items and items

26

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.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income have limitations as analytical tools. These are not presentations made in accordance with U.S. GAAP, are not measures of financial condition and should not be considered as an alternative to net income or net loss for the period determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure to Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income is Net Income for the relevant period. 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 U.S. 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;

• the cash requirements to pay our taxes.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of REV Group, Inc. (“REV” or “the Company”) and all its subsidiaries. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments, unless otherwise noted) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (U.S. GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. These unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of the Company for the year ended October 31, 2021. The interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.

Equity Sponsor: The Company’s primary equity holders are funds and an investment vehicle associated with AIP CF IV, LLC, which the Company collectively refers to as “American Industrial Partners,” “AIP” or “Sponsor” and which indirectly own approximately 43.7% of REV Group’s voting equity as of January 31, 2022. AIP is an operations and engineering-focused private equity firm headquartered in New York, New York.

Related Party Transactions: During the three months ended January 31, 2022, the Company reimbursed expenses of its primary equity holder of $0.1 million. During the three months ended January 31, 2021, the Company reimbursed expenses of its primary equity holder of $0.2 million. These expenses are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company’s Condensed Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Pronouncement Recently Adopted

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740), “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”. The standard simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC 740 such as recognizing deferred taxes for equity investments, the incremental approach to performing intra-period tax allocation and calculating income taxes in interim periods. The standard also simplifies accounting for income taxes under U.S. GAAP by clarifying and amending existing guidance, including the recognition of deferred taxes for goodwill, the allocation of taxes to members of a consolidated group and requiring that an entity reflect the effect of enacted changes in tax laws or rates in the annual effective tax rate computation in the interim period that includes the enactment date. The Company adopted ASU 2019-12 as of November 1, 2021. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Revenue From Contract With Customer [Abstract]

Revenue Recognition

Note 2. Revenue Recognition

Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is recognized from contracts with customers with product shipment destinations in the United States and Canada. The Company accounts for a contract when it has approval and commitment from both parties, the rights and payment terms of the parties are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable. The Company determines the transaction price for each contract at inception based on the consideration that it expects to receive for the goods and services promised under the contract. The transaction price excludes sales and usage-based taxes and certain “pass-through” amounts collected on behalf of third parties. The Company has elected to expense incremental costs to obtain a contract when the amortization period of the related asset is expected to be less than one year.

The Company’s primary source of revenue is generated from the manufacture and sale of specialty vehicles through its direct sales force or dealer network. The Company also generates revenue through separate contracts that relate to the sale of aftermarket parts and services. Revenue is typically recognized at a point-in-time, when control is transferred, which generally occurs when the product has been shipped to the customer or when it has been picked-up from the Company’s manufacturing facilities. Shipping and handling costs that occur after the transfer of control are fulfillment costs that are recorded in “Cost of Sales” in the Condensed Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss when incurred or when the related product revenue is recognized, whichever is earlier. Periodically, certain customers request bill and hold transactions. In such cases, revenue is not recognized until

after control has transferred which is generally when the customer has requested such transaction and has been notified that the product (i) has been completed according to customer specifications, (ii) has passed our quality control inspections, and (iii) has been separated from our inventory and is ready for physical transfer to the customer. Warranty obligations associated with the sale of a unit are assurance-type warranties that are a guarantee of the unit’s intended functionality and, therefore, do not represent a distinct performance obligation within the context of the contract.

Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities

The Company is generally entitled to bill its customers upon satisfaction of its performance obligations, and payment is usually received shortly after billing. Payments for certain contracts are received in advance of satisfying the related performance obligations. Such payments are recorded as customer advances in the Company’s Condensed Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets when received. The corresponding performance obligations are generally satisfied within one year of the contract inception. During the three months ended January 31, 2022 and January 31, 2021, the Company recognized $31.1 million and $51.4 million, respectively, of revenue that was included in the customer advance balances of $210.6 million and $170.1 million as of October 31, 2021 and October 31, 2020, respectively. The Company’s payment terms do not include a significant financing component and the Company does not have significant contract assets.

The carrying value of the net assets held for sale, inclusive of the cumulative translation adjustment balance attributable to this business, was greater than their fair value, less costs to sell, resulting in a loss of $3.8 million, which is included in the Condensed Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss for the three months ended January 31, 2021. The REV Brazil business is reported as part of the Fire & Emergency segment.

The Company previously made an initial investment in its China joint venture, Anhui Chery REV Specialty Vehicle Technology Co., Ltd (“China JV”), in exchange for 10% equity interest in its China JV. The Company recorded this investment under the equity method of accounting. The Company’s investment in the China JV also includes an interest-bearing loan.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2021, the Company made the strategic decision to exit its interests in the China JV and began soliciting offers to sell the investment and settle the loan. In connection with this decision, the Company recorded a loss of $6.2 million, which represents the difference between the carrying value of the investment and loan and the estimated proceeds to be received upon sale and settlement, respectively. This amount was recorded as a non-operating loss within our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2021. The Company expects to complete the sale of the investment during the second quarter of fiscal year 2022.

Restructuring and Other Related Charges

Note 8. Restructuring and Other Related Charges

In September 2021, the Company announced that it would close its Kovatch Mobile Equipment (“KME”) production facilities located in Nesquehoning, PA and Roanoke, VA and relocate the production to other existing Fire and Emergency (“F&E”) segment facilities within the U.S. The production facilities are being closed to better align our manufacturing footprint, to access our broad operational expertise and resources, enhance quality and improve delivery times by leveraging the advanced manufacturing capabilities that we have throughout the F&E segment. The Company plans to fully shift operations within fiscal year 2022. In the first quarter of fiscal year 2022, the Company recorded restructuring charges of $3.7 million. In the first quarter of fiscal year 2022, the Company incurred additional charges of $2.1 million related to this restructuring action consisting of $1.4 million of accelerated depreciation and $0.7 million of other restructuring related charges.

The Company expects to incur additional restructuring costs between $2.0 to $5.0 million and restructuring related and other charges of $2.0 and $3.0 million related to this activity.

Long-Term Debt

Note 9. Long-Term Debt

The Company was obligated under the following debt instrument:

	January 31, 2022		October 31, 2021
2021 ABL facility	$	256.0	$	215.0

2021 ABL Facility

On April 13, 2021, the Company entered into a $550.0 million revolving credit agreement (the “2021 ABL Facility” or “2021 ABL Agreement”) with a syndicate of lenders. The 2021 ABL Facility provides for revolving loans and letters of credit in an aggregate amount of up to $550.0 million. The total credit facility is subject to a $30.0 million sublimit for swing line loans and a $35.0 million sublimit for letters of credit (plus up to an additional $20.0 million of letters of credit at issuing bank’s discretion), along with certain borrowing base and other customary restrictions as defined in the 2021 ABL Agreement. The 2021 ABL Agreement allows for incremental facilities in an aggregate amount of up to $100.0 million, plus the excess, if any, of the borrowing base then in effect over total commitments then in effect. Any such incremental facilities are subject to receiving additional commitments from lenders and certain other customary conditions. The debt issuance costs capitalized in connection with the 2021 ABL Facility less accumulated amortization are included in other long-term assets in the Company’s Condensed Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The 2021 ABL Facility matures on April 13, 2026. The Company may prepay principal, in whole or in part, at any time without penalty.

All revolving loans under the 2021 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. Applicable interest rate margins are initially 0.75% for all base rate loans and 1.75% for all Eurodollar rate loans (with the Eurodollar rate having a floor of 0.25%), subject to adjustment based on the Company’s fixed charge coverage ratio in accordance with the 2021 ABL Agreement. Interest is payable quarterly for all base rate loans and is payable the last day of any interest period or every three months for all Eurodollar rate loans. The weighted-average interest rate on borrowings outstanding under the 2021 ABL Facility was 1.81% as of January 31, 2022.

The lenders under the 2021 ABL Facility have a first priority security interest in substantially all personal property assets and certain real property assets of the Company. The 2021 ABL Facility’s borrowing base is comprised of eligible receivables and eligible inventory, plus a fixed asset sublimit of certain eligible real property and eligible equipment, which fixed asset sublimit reduces by quarterly amortization as specified in the 2021 ABL Agreement.

The 2021 ABL Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants, subject in certain cases to customary limitations, exceptions and exclusions. The 2021 ABL Agreement also contains certain customary events of default. The occurrence of an event of default under the 2021 ABL Agreement could result in the termination of the commitments under the 2021 ABL Facility and the acceleration of all outstanding borrowings under it. The 2021 ABL Agreement requires the Company to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.10 to 1.00 during certain compliance periods as specified in the 2021 ABL Agreement.

The Company was in compliance with all financial covenants under the 2021 ABL Agreement as of January 31, 2022. As of January 31, 2022, the Company’s availability under the 2021 ABL Facility was $258.3 million.

The fair value of the 2021 ABL Facility approximated book value on January 31, 2022 and October 31, 2021.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings Per Share

Note 11. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per common share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income, if applicable, 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, performance stock units and restricted stock units and awards. The reconciliation of basic weighted-average shares outstanding to diluted weighted-average shares outstanding was as follows:

	Three Months Ended January 31,

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]

Income Taxes

Note 12. 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 or 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 recorded an income tax benefit of $1.8 million for the three months ended January 31, 2022, or 71.9% of pre-tax loss, compared to $0.0 million, for the three months ended January 31, 2021. Results for the three months ended January 31, 2022 were favorably impacted by $1.2 million of net discrete tax benefits primarily related to stock-based compensation tax deductions.

The Company periodically evaluates its valuation allowance requirements as facts and circumstances change 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 $4.1 million as of January 31, 2022 and $4.0 million as of October 31, 2021. The unrecognized tax benefits are presented in other long-term liabilities in the Company’s Condensed Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets as of January 31, 2022 and the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of October 31, 2021. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes in its Condensed Unaudited Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.

The Company regularly assesses the likelihood of an adverse outcome resulting from examinations to determine the adequacy of its tax reserves. As of January 31, 2022, 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 Disclosure [Abstract]

Commitments and Contingencies

Note 13. Commitments and Contingencies

Personal Injury Actions and Other: Product and general liability claims arise against the Company from time to time in the ordinary course of business. These claims are generally covered by third-party insurance, which for some insurance policies is subject to a retention for which the Company is responsible. Management, however, believes that any losses will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

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 31, 2022		October 31, 2021
Performance, bid and specialty bonds	$	473.3	$	480.0
Open standby letters of credit		13.4		23.6
Total	$	486.7	$	503.6

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 upon delivery. Accordingly, the chassis are not owned by the Company when delivered, therefore, are excluded from the Company’s inventory. Upon being put into production, the Company owns the inventory and becomes obligated to pay the manufacturer for the chassis. Chassis are typically placed into production within 90 to 120 days of delivery to the Company. If the chassis are not placed into production within this timeframe, the Company generally purchases the chassis and records inventory, or the Company is obligated to begin paying an interest charge on this inventory until purchased. 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 value of the vehicle chassis that would be resold to mitigate any losses. The Company’s contingent liability under such agreements was $7.6 million and $13.9 million as of January 31, 2022 and October 31, 2021, respectively.

Repurchase Commitments: The Company has 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 also repurchases inventory from dealers from time to time due to state law or regulatory requirements that require manufacturers to repurchase inventory if a dealership exits the business. The Company’s maximum contingent liability under such agreements were $195.9 million and $185.8 million as of January 31, 2022, and October 31, 2021, respectively, which represents the gross value of all vehicles under repurchase agreements. 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 resale value of the units which is required to be repurchased. Losses incurred under such arrangements have not been significant and the Company expects this pattern to continue. The reserve for losses included in other liabilities on contracts outstanding at January 31, 2022 and October 31, 2021 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 $13.3 million and $14.8 million at January 31, 2022 and October 31, 2021, respectively. 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. 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. Additionally, the Company cannot guarantee that the collateral underlying the agreements will be available or sufficient to avoid losses materially in excess of the amount reserved.

Other Matters: The Company is, from time to time, party to various legal proceedings arising out of ordinary course of business. The amount of alleged liability, if any, from these proceedings cannot be determined with certainty; however, the Company believes that its ultimate liability, if any, arising from pending legal proceedings, as well as from asserted legal claims and known potential legal claims, which are probable of assertion, taking into account established accruals for estimated liabilities, should not be material to the business, financial condition or results of operations.

A consolidated federal putative securities class action and a consolidated state putative securities class action that had been pending against the Company and certain of its officers and directors have each been settled. These actions collectively purported to assert claims on behalf of putative classes of purchasers of the Company’s common stock in or traceable to its January 2017 IPO, purchasers in its secondary offering of common stock in October 2017, and purchasers from October 10, 2017 through June 7, 2018. The state action also named certain of the underwriters for the Company’s IPO or secondary offering as defendants. The federal and state courts

each consolidated multiple separate actions pending before them, the first of which was filed on June 8, 2018. The actions alleged certain violations of the Securities Act of 1933 and, for the federal action, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Collectively, the actions sought certification of the putative classes asserted and compensatory damages and attorneys’ fees and costs. The consolidated state action was stayed in favor of the consolidated federal action. On May 19, 2021, the parties to the consolidated federal and state putative securities class actions executed a stipulation of settlement for a class settlement with the court and moved for preliminary approval of the settlement. The settlement payment is being fully covered by the Company’s insurers. The settlement payment and the related insurance proceeds were recorded in other current liabilities and other current assets, respectively, in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets as of October 31, 2021. On August 24, 2021, the court preliminarily approved the settlement. Notice was then given to the classes certified for settlement, and the court entered a final judgment approving the settlement on December 9, 2021. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2022, the Company’s insurers made the final settlement payment. As of January 31, 2022, there are no further amounts recorded in the Condensed Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Two purported derivative actions, which have since been consolidated, were also filed in 2019 against the Company’s directors (with the Company as a nominal defendant), premised on allegations similar to those asserted in the consolidated federal securities litigation. The parties to the consolidated derivative actions reached a settlement in principle on all issues other than plaintiffs’ counsel’s attorneys’ fees on or about February 17, 2021, and an agreement with respect to plaintiffs’ counsel’s attorneys’ fees on or about November 3, 2021. The plaintiffs filed a stipulation of settlement for the derivative actions with the court and moved for preliminary approval of the settlement on January 14, 2022.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

Business Segment Information

Note 14. 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 Emergency One (“E-ONE”), KME, Ferrara, and Spartan Emergency Response (“Spartan ER”), American Emergency Vehicles, Leader Emergency Vehicles, Horton Emergency Vehicles and REV Group Orlando. These business units manufacture, market and distribute 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, ENC, Capacity and Lay-Mor. Collins Bus manufactures, markets and distributes school buses, normally referred to as Type A school buses. ENC manufactures, markets and distributes municipal transit buses, primarily used for public transportation. 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 (“RRG”), Goldshield Fiberglass, Inc. (“Goldshield”), Renegade, Midwest and Lance, and their respective manufacturing facilities, service and parts divisions. RRG primarily manufactures, markets and distributes Class A RVs in both gas and diesel models. Renegade primarily manufacturers, markets and distributes Class C and “Super C” RVs. Midwest manufactures, markets and distributes Class B RVs and luxury vans. Lance manufactures, markets and distributes truck campers and towable campers. Goldshield manufactures, markets and distributes fiberglass reinforced molded parts to a diverse cross section of original equipment manufacturers and other commercial and industrial customers, including various components for RRG, which is one of Goldshield’s primary customers.

For purposes of measuring financial 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, Other & Elims” includes corporate office expenses, results of insignificant operations, intersegment eliminations and income and expense not allocated to reportable segments.

Total 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 and other centralized 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:

Adjusted EBITDA	$	10.2	$	7.1	$	15.1	$	(9.2	)

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, income taxes and loss on early extinguishment of debt, as adjusted for items management 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 net loss is included below.

The Company believes 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 have less bearing on the Company’s core operating performance, and allows for a more meaningful comparison of operating fundamentals between companies within its industries by eliminating the impact of capital structure and taxation differences between the companies. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA is used by management to measure and report the Company’s financial performance to the Company’s Board of Directors, assists in providing a meaningful analysis of the Company’s operating performance and is used as a measurement in incentive compensation for management.

Provided below is a reconciliation of segment Adjusted EBITDA to net loss:

Accounting Pronouncement Recently Adopted

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740), “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”. The standard simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC 740 such as recognizing deferred taxes for equity investments, the incremental approach to performing intra-period tax allocation and calculating income taxes in interim periods. The standard also simplifies accounting for income taxes under U.S. GAAP by clarifying and amending existing guidance, including the recognition of deferred taxes for goodwill, the allocation of taxes to members of a consolidated group and requiring that an entity reflect the effect of enacted changes in tax laws or rates in the annual effective tax rate computation in the interim period that includes the enactment date. The Company adopted ASU 2019-12 as of November 1, 2021. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
