RISK FACTORS

The COVID-19 pandemic could further materially adversely affect our business, workforce, supply chain, results of operation, financial condition and/or cash flows.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19, a novel strain of coronavirus, a global pandemic, and the COVID-19 virus has continued to spread around the world. Governments across the world have implemented numerous measures to attempt to contain or lessen the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on their populations, such as travel bans, quarantines, shut-downs and shelter in place orders. The COVID-19 pandemic, as well as the current and future measures directed toward it, has resulted in significant uncertainty in capital markets and a global economic slowdown that may last for an extended duration resulting in a global recession. The pandemic has negatively impacted, and is likely to continue to negatively impact, our business in numerous ways, including but not limited to those outlined below:

1

• The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly reduced demand for access equipment, and some customers have canceled or pushed out orders. The COVID-19 pandemic has also reduced demand for refuse collection vehicles and concrete mixers and may reduce demand for other products. In addition, travel restrictions related to the COVID-19 pandemic have prevented some customers in our Fire & Emergency segment from inspecting and accepting vehicles on a timely basis. Furthermore, our customers may experience financial hardships during the COVID-19 pandemic that could result in lower demand for our products and/or default on financial and other commitments to us.

• We operate a global supply chain that has been, and could in the future continue to be, disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in delays or inefficiencies in production in all of our segments. Some of our suppliers have limited, and may in the future limit, their production or shut down due to shelter-in-place requirements, sanitizing facilities and workforce availability issues. While we have generally been successful in mitigating these supply chain challenges, supplier parts shortages lowered our production rates in the Fire & Emergency segments during the third quarter of fiscal 2020, and it is possible that a part or component shortage could limit our production in the future.

• Government or regulatory responses to the COVID-19 pandemic have negatively impacted, and are likely to continue to negatively impact, our business. Mandatory lockdowns or other restrictions on operations may disrupt our ability to manufacture or distribute our products in some markets. Governments may continue to impose travel restrictions and close borders, impose prolonged quarantines and further restrict business activity, which could impact our ability to support our operations and customers and the ability of our employees to get to their workplaces to produce products and services, limit the ability of our suppliers to provide us with products, or hamper our products from moving through the supply chain.

• The COVID-19 pandemic adversely affects our workforce and business as a result of impacts associated with required, preventive and precautionary measures that we, other businesses, our communities and governments are taking. These impacts include our requiring certain employees to work from home, limiting the number of employees attending meetings, reducing the number of people in our sites at any one time, reducing employee travel and adopting other employee safety measures. These measures have, and in the future may, also impact our ability to meet production demands or requests depending on employee attendance or ability to continue to work. Restrictions on, as well as the health of, our workforce could limit our ability to support our business.

• Although we have instituted temporary plant shutdowns in our Access Equipment segment to match production with customer demand and supply chain constraints and implemented salary reductions, furloughs and other cost reduction actions across our company, the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic may limit our ability to reduce our overall operating costs as we are incurring increased costs relating to our enhanced sanitization procedures and our efforts to mitigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic through social-distancing measures we have enacted at our facilities.

• The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on global economies could reduce our ability to execute our business strategy. Disruptions or uncertainties related to the COVID-19 pandemic could result in delays or modifications to our strategic plans and initiatives.

• The COVID-19 pandemic has led to disruption and volatility in the global capital markets, which depending on future developments could impact our capital resources and liquidity in the future. Although we believe our balance sheet remains strong, we have been focused on preserving capital resources given the uncertain duration of the pandemic, and in an attempt to maintain strong liquidity, the Company has paused its share repurchase program and implemented other cost reduction actions, such as salary reductions, furloughs and deferring non-critical projects, there is no certainty that measures we have taken will be effective to enable us to maintain adequate resources and liquidity.

The impacts that we list above and other impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic are likely to also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks that we describe in this Current Report on Form 8-K. The ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the extent of its impact on our business, results of operations, financial condition and/or cash flow, is dependent, among other things, on the duration and severity of the pandemic, the effect of actions taken by

2

government authorities and other third parties in response to the pandemic and the impact of the pandemic on global economies, each of which is uncertain, rapidly changing and difficult to predict. We cannot at this time predict the overall impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on us, but it could continue to have a material adverse impact on our business, workforce, supply chain, results of operations, financial condition and/or cash flows.

Our markets are highly cyclical. Declines in these markets could have a material adverse effect on our operating performance.

The access equipment market is highly cyclical and impacted (i) by the strength of economies in general and customers’ perceptions concerning the timing of economic cycles, (ii) by residential and non-residential construction spending, (iii) by the ability of rental companies to obtain third-party financing to purchase revenue generating assets, (iv) by capital expenditures of rental companies in general, including the rate at which they replace aged rental equipment, which is impacted in part by historical purchase levels, (v) by the timing of regulatory standard changes, and (vi) by other factors, including oil and gas related activity. The ready-mix concrete market that we serve is highly cyclical and impacted by the strength of the economy generally, by the number of housing starts and by other factors that may have an effect on the level of concrete placement activity, either regionally or nationally. Refuse collection vehicle markets are also cyclical and impacted by the strength of economies in general, by municipal tax receipts and by the size and timing of capital expenditures, including replacement demand, by large waste haulers. Fire & Emergency markets are cyclical later in an economic cycle and are impacted by the economy generally and by municipal tax receipts and capital expenditures.

Lower U.S. housing starts since fiscal 2008 have had a negative impact on sales volumes for our concrete placement products. Despite modest U.S. residential construction growth, housing starts remain below historical 30-year averages. We believe concrete mixer customers have maintained a cautious approach to fleet replacement/expansion, generally wanting to confirm that construction activity in the U.S. will support solid fleet utilization. A lack of sustained improvement in residential construction spending generally may result in our inability to achieve our sales expectations or cause future weakness in demand for our products. We cannot provide any assurance that the housing recovery will not progress even more slowly than what we or the market expect. If the housing recovery progresses more slowly than what we or the market expect, then there could be an adverse effect on our net sales, financial condition, profitability and/or cash flows.

Our dependency on contracts with U.S. and foreign government agencies subjects us to a variety of risks that could materially reduce our revenues or profits.

We are dependent on U.S. and foreign government contracts for a substantial portion of our business. Approximately 24% of our sales in fiscal 2019 were to the Department of Defense (DoD). That business is subject to the following risks, among others, that could have a material adverse effect on our operating performance:

• Our business is susceptible to changes in the U.S. defense budget, which changes may reduce revenues that we expect from our Defense business, especially in light of federal budget pressures, lower levels of U.S. ground troops deployed in foreign conflicts, sequestration and the level of defense funding that will be allocated to the DoD’s tactical wheeled vehicle strategy generally.

• The U.S. government may not budget for or appropriate funding that we expect for our U.S. government contracts, which may prevent us from realizing revenues under current contracts or receiving additional orders that we anticipate we will receive. The DoD could also seek to reprogram certain funds originally planned for the purchase of vehicles we manufacture under the current defense budget allocations. The U.S. Army has identified its top modernization and readiness priorities, which could result in the customer re-programming funds away from the Company’s Joint Light Tactical Vehicle (JLTV) program to support these initiatives.

• The funding of U.S. government programs is subject to an annual congressional budget authorization and appropriation process. In years when the U.S. government has not completed its budget process before the end of its fiscal year, government operations are typically funded pursuant to a “continuing resolution,” which allows federal government agencies to operate at spending levels approved in the previous budget cycle but does not

3

authorize new spending initiatives. When the U.S. government operates under a continuing resolution, delays can occur in the procurement of the products, services and solutions that we provide and may result in new initiatives being delayed or canceled, or funds could be reprogrammed away from our programs to pay for higher priority operational needs. Furthermore, in years when the U.S. government fails to complete its budget process or to provide for a continuing resolution, a federal government shutdown may result. This could in turn result in the delay or cancellation of key programs, which could have a negative effect on our cash flows and adversely affect our future results. In addition, payments to contractors for services performed during a federal government shutdown may be delayed, which would have a negative effect on our cash flows.

• Certain of our government contracts for the DoD could be delayed or terminated, and all such contracts expire in the future and may not be replaced, which could reduce revenues that we expect under the contracts and negatively affect margins in our Defense segment.

• The Weapon Systems Acquisition Reform Act and the Competition in Contracting Act require competition for U.S. defense programs in most circumstances. Competition for DoD programs that we currently have could result in the U.S. government awarding future contracts to another manufacturer or the U.S. government awarding the contracts to us at lower prices and operating margins than we experience under the current contracts.

• Competitions for the award of defense tactical wheeled vehicle contracts are intense, and we cannot provide any assurance that we will be successful in the defense tactical wheeled vehicle procurement competitions in which we participate. In addition, the U.S. government has become more aggressive in seeking to acquire the design rights to the Company’s current and potential future programs to facilitate competition for manufacturing our vehicles. The willingness of bidders to license their design rights to the DoD was an evaluation factor in the JLTV and Family of Medium Tactical Vehicles (FMTV) A2 competitions.

• Defense tactical wheeled vehicles contract awards that we receive may be subject to protests or lawsuits by competing bidders, which protests or lawsuits, if successful, could result in the DoD revoking part or all of any defense tactical wheeled vehicle contracts it awards to us and our inability to recover amounts we have expended in anticipation of initiating production under any such contract.

• Most of our contracts with the DoD are multi-year firm, fixed-price contracts. These contracts typically contain annual sales price increases. Under the JLTV contract, we bear the risk of material, labor and overhead cost escalation for the full eight years of the contract, which is three to five years longer than has been the case under our other defense contracts. We attempt to limit the risk related to raw material price fluctuations on prices for major defense components by obtaining firm pricing from suppliers at the time a contract is awarded. However, if these suppliers do not honor their contracts, then we could face margin pressure. Furthermore, if our actual costs on any of these contracts exceed our projected costs, it could result in profits lower than historically realized or than we anticipate or net losses under these contracts.

• In fiscal 2019, we began accounting for substantially all long-term contracts with the DoD utilizing the cost to cost method of percentage-of-completion accounting. This accounting requires judgment relative to assessing risks, estimating revenues and costs and making assumptions regarding the timing of receipt of delivery orders from our government customer and technical issues. Due to the size and nature of these contracts, the estimation of total revenues and costs is complicated and subject to many variables. We must make assumptions regarding expected increases in wages and employee benefits, productivity and availability of labor, material costs and allocated fixed costs. Changes to production costs, overhead rates, learning curve and/or supplier performance can also impact these estimates. Furthermore, under the new revenue recognition accounting rules, we can only include units in our estimates of overall contract profitability after we have received a firm delivery order for those units. Because new orders have the potential to significantly change the overall profitability of cumulative orders received to date, particularly early in the contract when fewer overall units are on order, the period in which we receive those orders from the government will impact the estimated life-to-date contract profitability. Changes in underlying assumptions, circumstances or estimates could have a material adverse effect on our net sales, financial condition, profitability and/or cash flows.

4

• We must spend significant sums on product development and testing, bid and proposal activities, and pre-contract engineering, tooling and design activities in competitions to have the opportunity to be awarded these contracts.

• As a U.S. government contractor, our U.S. government contracts and systems are subject to audit and review by the Defense Contract Audit Agency and the Defense Contract Management Agency. These agencies review our performance under our U.S. government contracts, our cost structure and our compliance with laws and regulations applicable to U.S. government contractors. Systems that are subject to review include, but are not limited to, our accounting systems, estimating systems, material management systems, earned value management systems, purchasing systems and government property systems. If improper or illegal activities, errors or system inadequacies come to the attention of the U.S. government, as a result of an audit or otherwise, then we may be subject to civil and criminal penalties, contract adjustments and/or agreements to upgrade existing systems as well as administrative sanctions that may include the termination of our U.S. government contracts, forfeiture of profits, suspension of payments, fines and, under certain circumstances, suspension or debarment from future U.S. government contracts for a period of time. Whether or not illegal activities are alleged and regardless of materiality, the U.S. government also has the ability to decrease or withhold certain payments when it deems systems subject to its review to be inadequate. These laws and regulations affect how we do business with our customers and, in many instances, impose added costs on our business.

• Our Defense business may fluctuate significantly from time to time as a result of the start and completion of existing and new domestic and international contract awards that we may receive. Our defense tactical wheeled vehicle contracts are large in size and require significant personnel and production resources, and when our defense tactical wheeled vehicle customers allow such contracts to expire or significantly reduce their vehicle requirements under such contracts, we must make adjustments to personnel and production resources. The start and completion of existing and new contract awards that we may receive can cause our Defense business to fluctuate significantly.

• We may face uncertainty regarding the timing of funding or payments on international defense tactical wheeled vehicle contract awards that we may receive.

• We periodically experience difficulties with sourcing sufficient vehicle carcasses from the U.S. military to maintain our defense tactical wheeled vehicles remanufacturing schedule, which can create uncertainty and inefficiencies for this area of our business.

Raw material price fluctuations may adversely affect our results.

We purchase, directly and indirectly through component purchases, significant amounts of steel, aluminum, petroleum-based products and other commodities. Steel, aluminum, fuel and other commodity prices have historically been highly volatile. For example, U.S. steel plate prices spiked 50% from the end of our fiscal 2017 through January 2019, before falling the remainder of fiscal 2019. Costs for these items may increase again in the future due to one or more of the following: a sustained economic recovery, the level of tariffs imposed on imported steel and aluminum, including the Section 232 tariffs, or a weakening U.S. dollar. Increases in commodity costs, such as those driven by the Section 232 tariffs, negatively impact the profitability of orders in backlog as prices on those orders are usually fixed. If we are not able to recover commodity cost increases through surcharges or permanent price increases to our customers, then such increases will have an adverse effect on our financial condition, profitability and/or cash flows. Furthermore, surcharges and permanent price increases may not be accepted by our customers, resulting in them choosing to order from our competitors instead of us or delaying orders to us. Any significant decrease in orders could have an adverse effect on our financial condition, profitability and/or cash flow. Additionally, if commodity costs decrease and we are unable to negotiate timely component cost decreases commensurate with any decrease in commodity costs, then our higher component prices could put us at a material disadvantage as compared to our competition which could have a material adverse effect on our net sales, financial condition, profitability and/or cash flows.

5

We are dependent upon third-party suppliers, making us vulnerable to supply shortages and price increases.

We have experienced, and may in the future experience, significant disruption or termination of the supply of some of our parts, materials, components and final assemblies that we obtain from sole source suppliers or subcontractors. Delays in obtaining parts, materials, components and final assemblies may result from a number of factors affecting our suppliers including capacity constraints, labor shortages or disputes, supplier product quality issues, suppliers’ impaired financial condition and suppliers’ allocation to other purchasers. These risks are increased in a weak economic environment and when demand increases coming out of an economic downturn.

We may incur a significant increase in the costs of parts, materials, components or final assemblies. Factors such as supply and demand, freight costs, transportation availability, inventory levels, the level of imports, the imposition of duties and tariffs, including Section 301 tariffs, and other trade barriers and general economic conditions may affect the price of these parts, materials components or final assemblies. Such disruptions, terminations or cost increases have resulted and could further result in manufacturing inefficiencies due to us having to wait for parts to arrive on the production line, could delay sales and could result in a material adverse effect on our net sales, financial condition, profitability and/or cash flows.

We may not be able to execute on our MOVE strategy.

MOVE is our strategy to deliver long-term growth and earnings for our shareholders. We cannot provide any assurance we will be able to continue to successfully execute our MOVE strategy due to a variety of risks, including the following:

• Our inability to adopt the use of standard processes and tools to drive improved customer satisfaction;

• Our inability to expand our aftermarket parts and service availability;

• Our inability to improve our product quality;

• Our inability to improve margins through simplification actions;

• Our failure to realize product, process and overhead cost reduction targets;

• Our inability to design new products that meet our customers’ requirements and bring them to market;

• Higher costs than anticipated to launch new products or delays in new product launches; and

• Slow adoption of our products in emerging markets and/or our inability to successfully execute our emerging market growth strategy.

We are subject to fluctuations in exchange rates associated with our non-U.S. operations that could adversely affect our results of operations and may significantly affect the comparability of our results between financial periods.

Approximately 20% of our net sales in fiscal 2019 were attributable to products sold outside of the United States, of which approximately 80% involved export sales from the United States. The majority of export sales are denominated in U.S. dollars. Sales that originate outside the United States are typically transacted in the local currencies of those countries. Fluctuations in foreign currency can have an adverse impact on our sales and profits as amounts that are measured in foreign currency are translated back to U.S. dollars. We have sales of inventory denominated in U.S. dollars to certain of our subsidiaries that have functional currencies other than the U.S. dollar. The exchange rates between many of these currencies and the U.S. dollar have fluctuated significantly in recent years and may fluctuate significantly in the future. Such fluctuations, in particular those with respect to the Euro, the Chinese renminbi, the Canadian dollar, the Mexican peso, the Australian dollar and the British pound sterling, may have a material effect on our net sales, financial condition, profitability and/or cash flows and may significantly affect the comparability of our results between financial periods. In addition, any appreciation in the value of the U.S. dollar in relation to the value of the local currency of those countries where our products are sold will increase our costs of goods in our foreign operations, to the extent such costs are payable in U.S. dollars, and impact the competitiveness of our product offerings in international markets.

6

We may experience losses in excess of our recorded reserves for doubtful accounts, finance receivables, notes receivable and guarantees of indebtedness of others.

As of June 30, 2020, we had consolidated gross receivables of $879.2 million. In addition, we were subject to obligations to guarantee customer indebtedness to third parties of $750.5 million, under which we estimate our maximum exposure to be $151.3 million. We evaluate the collectibility of open accounts, finance receivables, notes receivable and our guarantees of indebtedness of others based on a combination of factors and establish reserves based on our estimates of potential losses. In circumstances where we believe it is probable that a specific customer will have difficulty meeting its financial obligations, a specific reserve is recorded to reduce the net recognized receivable to the amount we expect to collect, and/or we recognize a liability for a guarantee we expect to pay, taking into account any amounts that we would anticipate realizing if we are forced to repossess the equipment that supports the customer’s financial obligations to us. We also establish additional reserves based upon our perception of the quality of the current receivables, the current financial position of our customers and past collections experience. Prolonged or more severe economic weakness may result in additional requirements for specific reserves. During periods of economic weakness, the collateral underlying our guarantees of indebtedness of customers or receivables can decline sharply, thereby increasing our exposure to losses. We also face a concentration of credit risk as the Access Equipment segment’s ten largest debtors at June 30, 2020 represented approximately 33% of our consolidated gross receivables. Some of these customers are highly leveraged. We may incur losses in excess of our recorded reserves if the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate or the full amount of any anticipated proceeds from the sale of the collateral supporting our customers’ financial obligations is not realized. Our cash flows and overall liquidity may be materially adversely affected if any of the financial institutions that finance our customer receivables become unable or unwilling, due to unfavorable economic conditions, a weakening of our or their financial position or otherwise, to continue providing such credit.

An impairment in the carrying value of goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets could negatively affect our operating results.

We have a substantial amount of goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets on our balance sheet as a result of acquisitions we have completed. At June 30, 2020, approximately 90% of these intangibles were concentrated in the Access Equipment segment. We evaluate goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment at least annually, or more frequently if potential interim indicators exist that could result in impairment. Events and conditions that could result in impairment include a prolonged period of global economic weakness, a decline in economic conditions or a slow, weak economic recovery, a sustained decline in the price of our common stock, adverse changes in the regulatory environment, adverse changes in the market share of our products, adverse changes in interest rates, or other factors leading to reductions in the long-term sales or profitability that we expect. Determination of the fair value of a reporting unit includes developing estimates which are highly subjective and incorporate calculations that are sensitive to minor changes in underlying assumptions. Management’s assumptions change as more information becomes available. Changes in these events and conditions or other assumptions could result in an impairment charge in the future, which could have a significant adverse impact on our reported earnings.

Financing costs and restrictive covenants in our current debt facilities could limit our flexibility in managing our business and increase our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions.

Our credit agreement contains financial and restrictive covenants which, among other things, require us to satisfy quarter-end financial ratios. Our ability to meet the financial ratios in such covenants may be affected by a number of risks or events, including the risks described in this Current Report on Form 8-K and events beyond our control. The indenture governing our senior notes also contain restrictive covenants. Any failure by us to comply with these restrictive covenants or the financial and restrictive covenants in our credit agreement could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and debt service capability.

7

Our access to debt financing at competitive risk-based interest rates is partly a function of our credit ratings. Our current long-term credit ratings are BBB with “negative” outlook from S&P Global Ratings, Baa3 with “stable” outlook from Moody’s Investors Service and BBB- with “stable” outlook from Fitch Ratings. A downgrade to our credit ratings could increase our interest rates, could limit our access to public debt markets, could limit the institutions willing to provide us credit facilities, and could make any future credit facilities or credit facility amendments more costly and/or difficult to obtain. In addition, a portion of our debt is subject to variable interest rates. An increase in general interest rates would also increase our cost of borrowing under our credit agreement.

We had $825 million of long-term debt outstanding as of June 30, 2020. Our ability to make required payments of principal and interest on our debt will depend on our future performance, which, to a certain extent, is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, political and other factors, some of which are beyond our control. As we discussed above, our dependency on contracts with U.S. and foreign government agencies subjects us to a variety of risks that, if realized, could materially reduce our revenues, profits and cash flows. Accordingly, conditions could arise that could limit our ability to generate sufficient cash flows or access borrowings to enable us to fund our liquidity needs, further limit our financial flexibility or impair our ability to obtain alternative financing sufficient to repay our debt at maturity.

The covenants in our credit agreement and the indenture governing our senior notes, our credit rating, our current debt levels and the current credit market conditions could have important consequences for our operations, including:

• Render us more vulnerable to general adverse economic and industry conditions in our highly cyclical markets or economies generally;

• Require us to dedicate a portion of our cash flow from operations to interest costs or required payments on debt, thereby reducing the availability of such cash flow to fund working capital, capital expenditures, research and development, share repurchases, dividends and other general corporate activities;

• Limit our ability to obtain additional financing in the future to fund growth working capital, capital expenditures, new product development expenses and other general corporate requirements;

• Make us vulnerable to increases in interest rates as our debt under our credit agreement is at variable rates;

• Limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the markets we serve; and

• Limit our ability to pursue strategic acquisitions that may become available in our markets or otherwise capitalize on business opportunities if we had additional borrowing capacity.

Security breaches and other disruptions could compromise our information and expose us to liability, which could cause our business and reputation to suffer.

Security threats via computer malware and other “cyber-attacks” are increasing in both frequency and sophistication. As a defense contractor, we face many cyber and security threats that can range from attacks common to most industries, which could have financial or reputational consequences, to advanced persistent threats on our Defense business, which could involve information that is considered a matter of national security. These threats may include attempts to gain unauthorized access to our information system and networks, which we use to collect and store confidential and sensitive data, including information about our business, our customers and employees. The technology within our products also presents a risk to our customers that if compromised could have negative implications on the Company. As technology continues to evolve, we anticipate that we will collect, store and embed even more data capabilities in our systems and products that are sensitive to both willful and unintentional security breaches. We have designed our processes and controls to monitor and mitigate against such risks. However, there can be no assurance that these processes and controls will be sufficient to prevent such attacks. In the event of a breach in security, it may lead to customers purchasing products from our competitors, subject us to lawsuits, fines and other means of regulatory enforcement, disrupt our operations or harm employee wellbeing and/or morale.

8

In addition, we could be impacted by cyber threats, disruptions or vulnerabilities of our suppliers and customers. The costs of maintaining robust information security mechanisms and controls are increasing and are likely to increase further in the future. We are unable to predict the impact of a security breach at this time.

Our objective is to expand international operations and sales, the conduct of which subjects us to risks that may have a material adverse effect on our business.

Expanding international operations and sales is a significant part of our growth strategy. International operations and sales are subject to various risks, including political, religious and economic instability, local labor market conditions, the imposition of foreign tariffs upon our products (which include tariffs in response to tariffs that the U.S. imposes) and other trade barriers, the impact of foreign government regulations and the effects of income and withholding taxes, sporadic order patterns, governmental expropriation, uncertainties or delays in collection of accounts receivable and differences in business practices. We may incur increased costs, including increased supply chain costs, and experience delays or disruptions in production schedules, product deliveries or payments in connection with international manufacturing and sales that could cause loss of revenues and earnings. Among other things, there are additional logistical requirements associated with international sales, which increase the amount of time between the completion of vehicle production and our ability to recognize related revenue. In addition, expansion into foreign markets requires the establishment of distribution networks and may require modification of products to meet local requirements or preferences. Establishment of distribution networks or modification to the design of our products to meet local requirements and preferences may take longer or be more costly than we anticipate and could have a material adverse effect on our ability to achieve international sales growth. In addition, our entry into certain markets that we wish to enter may require us to establish a joint venture. Identifying an appropriate joint venture partner and creating a joint venture could be more time consuming, more costly and more difficult than we anticipate.

As a result of our international operations and sales, we are subject to the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) and other laws that prohibit improper payments or offers of payments to foreign governments and their officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. Our international activities create the risk of unauthorized payments or offers of payments in violation of the FCPA by one of our employees, consultants, sales agents or distributors, because these parties are not always subject to our control. Any violations of the FCPA could result in significant fines, criminal sanctions against us or our employees, and prohibitions on the conduct of our business, including our business with the U.S. government. We are also increasingly subject to export control regulations, including, without limitation, the United States Export Administration Regulations and the International Traffic in Arms Regulations. Unfavorable changes in the political, regulatory or business climate could have a material adverse effect on our net sales, financial condition, profitability and/or cash flows.

Our results could be adversely affected by severe weather, natural disasters, and other events in the locations in which we or our customers or suppliers operate.

We have manufacturing and other operations in locations prone to severe weather and natural disasters, including earthquakes, floods, hurricanes or tsunamis that could disrupt our operations, such as the partial roof collapse we experienced at one of our Commercial segment manufacturing facilities during the second quarter of fiscal 2019 due to heavy snow accumulation and blizzard conditions. Our suppliers and customers also have operations in such locations. Severe weather or a natural disaster that results in a prolonged disruption to our operations, or the operations of our customers or suppliers could delay delivery of parts, materials or components to us or sales to our customers and could have a material adverse effect on our net sales, financial condition, profitability and/or cash flows.

Concrete mixer and Access Equipment sales also are seasonal with the majority of such sales occurring in the spring and summer months, which constitute the traditional construction season in the Northern hemisphere. The timing of orders for the traditional construction season in the Northern hemisphere can be impacted by weather conditions.

Changes in the tax regimes and related government policies and regulations in the countries in which we operate could adversely affect our results and our effective tax rate.

As a multinational corporation, we are subject to various taxes in both U.S. and non-U.S. jurisdictions. Due to economic and political conditions, tax laws, regulations and rates in these various jurisdictions may be subject to significant change. Our future effective income tax rate could be affected by changes in the mix of earnings in countries with differing statutory tax rates, changes in the valuation of deferred tax assets or changes in tax laws or their interpretation. Developments, such as U.S. tax reform, the European Commission’s investigations of illegal state aid as well as the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development project on Base Erosion and Profit Shifting, may result in changes to long-standing tax principles, which could adversely affect our effective tax rate or result in higher tax liabilities. Increases in our effective tax rate or tax liabilities could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, profitability and/or cash flows.

We expect to incur costs and charges as a result of restructuring of facilities or operations that we expect will reduce on-going costs. These actions may be disruptive to our business and may not result in anticipated cost savings.

Periodically we restructure facilities and operations in an effort to make our business more efficient, such as the closure of our Medias, Romania and Riverside, California facilities within our Access Equipment segment that we announced at the end of June 2020 and the relocation of concrete mixer production from Dodge Center, Minnesota facility within our Commercial segment that was announced in July 2020. We have incurred costs, asset impairments and restructuring charges in connection with such restructuring activities, workforce reductions and other cost reduction measures, and in the future, may incur additional such costs that would adversely affect our future earnings and cash flows. Such actions may be disruptive to our business. This may result in production inefficiencies, product quality issues, late product deliveries or lost orders as we begin production at consolidated facilities or outsource activities to third parties, which would adversely impact our sales levels, operating results and operating margins. Furthermore, we may not realize the cost savings that we expect to realize as a result of such actions.

Changes in regulations could adversely affect our business.

Both our products and the operation of our manufacturing facilities are subject to statutory and regulatory requirements. These include environmental requirements applicable to manufacturing and vehicle emissions, government contracting regulations, regulations impacting our supply chain and domestic and international trade regulations. A significant change to these regulatory requirements could substantially increase manufacturing costs or impact the size or timing of demand for our products, all of which could make our business results more variable.

In particular, many scientists, legislators and others attribute climate change to increased levels of greenhouse gases, including carbon dioxide, which has led to significant legislative and regulatory efforts to limit greenhouse gas emissions. Congress has previously considered and may in the future implement restrictions on greenhouse gas emissions through a cap-and-trade system under which emitters would be required to buy allowances to offset emissions of greenhouse gas. In addition, several states, including states where we have manufacturing plants, are considering various greenhouse gas registration and reduction programs. Our manufacturing plants use energy, including electricity and natural gas, and certain of our plants emit amounts of greenhouse gas that may be affected by these legislative and regulatory efforts. Greenhouse gas regulation could increase the price of the electricity we purchase, increase costs for our use of natural gas, potentially restrict access to or the use of natural gas, require us to purchase allowances to offset our own emissions or result in an overall increase in our costs of raw materials, any one of which could increase our costs, reduce our competitiveness in a global economy or otherwise negatively affect our business, operations or financial results.

10

Disruptions within our dealer network could adversely affect our business.

Although we sell the majority of our products directly to the end user, we market, sell and service products through a network of independent dealers in the Fire & Emergency segment and in a limited number of markets for the Access Equipment and Commercial segments. As a result, our business with respect to these products is influenced by our ability to establish and manage new and existing relationships with dealers. While we have relatively low turnover of dealers, from time to time, we or a dealer may choose to terminate the relationship as a result of difficulties that our independent dealers experience in operating their businesses due to economic conditions or other factors, or as a result of an alleged failure by us or an independent dealer to comply with the terms of our dealer agreement. We do not believe our business is dependent on any single dealer, the loss of which would have a sustained material adverse effect upon our business. However, disruption of dealer coverage within a specific state or other geographic market could cause difficulties in marketing, selling or servicing our products and have an adverse effect on our business, operating results or financial condition.

In addition, our ability to terminate our relationship with a dealer is limited due to state dealer laws, which generally provide that a manufacturer may not terminate or refuse to renew a dealer agreement unless it has first provided the dealer with required notices. Under many state laws, dealers may protest termination notices or petition for relief from termination actions. Responding to these protests and petitions may cause us to incur costs and, in some instances, could lead to litigation resulting in lost opportunities with other dealers or lost sales opportunities, which may have an adverse effect on our business, operating results or financial condition.

OSHKOSH CORPORATION REPORTS FISCAL 2020

THIRD QUARTER RESULTS

Implementing Actions to Simplify Operations and Lower Costs

Declares Quarterly Cash Dividend of $0.30 Per Share

OSHKOSH, WI - (July 30, 2020) - Oshkosh Corporation (NYSE: OSK), a leading innovator of mission-critical vehicles and equipment, today reported fiscal 2020 third quarter net income of $80.2 million, or $1.17 per diluted share, compared to $191.9 million, or $2.72 per diluted share, in the third quarter of fiscal 2019. Results for the third quarter of fiscal 2020 included after-tax charges of $8.4 million associated with restructuring actions. Excluding these charges, fiscal 2020 third quarter adjusted¹ net income was $88.6 million, or $1.29 per diluted share. Comparisons in this news release are to the corresponding period of the prior year, unless otherwise noted.

Consolidated net sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 decreased 33.9 percent to $1.58 billion compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2019 largely as a result of a 61 percent decrease in sales in the Access Equipment segment as the COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted demand in this segment.

Consolidated operating income in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 decreased 54.0 percent to $118.6 million, or 7.5 percent of sales, compared to $257.8 million, or 10.8 percent of sales, in the third quarter of fiscal 2019. The decrease in consolidated operating income was primarily due to lower consolidated sales volume and an adverse product mix, offset in part by favorable price/cost dynamics, lower incentive compensation accruals and

lower spending as a result of temporary cost reductions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Excluding$10.2 millionof pre-tax restructuring charges, adjusted¹ operating income in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 was$128.8 million, or 8.1percent of sales.

“I am very pleased with the response of Oshkosh leaders and team members as we have worked together to protect our people and deliver solid financial performance while balancing the needs of our customers, communities and business partners during these difficult times,” said Wilson R. Jones, Oshkosh Corporation Chief Executive Officer. “In the face of unprecedented challenges brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, our businesses pulled together, executed with discipline and implemented temporary cost reductions that allowed us to deliver fiscal third quarter adjusted¹ operating income of $128.8 million and adjusted¹ earnings per share of $1.29 despite a decline in revenues of 34 percent.

“While we performed well in the current volatile environment, we must stay vigilant as we seek to navigate the challenging conditions in our markets. Early in the pandemic, we announced a series of temporary cost reduction actions to deal with the conditions we were facing. With the ongoing uncertainty in the economy, we have announced several permanent cost actions to further simplify our businesses and reduce costs. In our Access Equipment segment, we are closing our facility in Romania and moving that production to factories in Pennsylvania, Mexico and China. In our Commercial segment, we are relocating concrete mixer production from Dodge Center, Minnesota and consolidating production in our other North American facilities to simplify whole goods manufacturing in this segment.

“Once fully implemented, we expect these actions to generate $30 million to $35 million of annual pre-tax savings, with some benefits in fiscal 2021 and the full impact in fiscal 2022. We expect pre-tax implementation costs of $35 million to $40 million, including approximately $20 million of non-cash charges.

“As a different integrated global industrial, we remain confident in the long-term strengths of the company, especially our strong People First culture. We are focused on winning in our markets as we continue to invest in new products, new technologies and lifecycle services to position the Company for future success,” said Jones.

Factors affecting third quarter results for the Company’s business segments included:

Access Equipment - Access Equipment segment net sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 decreased 60.9 percent to $488.0 million. The decrease in sales was due to lower market demand resulting from the global economic downturn as a result of COVID-19.

Access Equipment segment operating income in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 decreased 82.4 percent to $33.5 million, or 6.9 percent of sales, compared to $189.9 million, or 15.2 percent of sales, in the third quarter of fiscal 2019. The decrease in operating income was primarily due to the impact of lower sales volume and adverse absorption as a result of lower production, offset in part by favorable price/cost dynamics, lower incentive compensation accruals, lower spending as a result of temporary cost reductions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and lower intangible asset amortization. Excluding $7.6 million of pre-tax restructuring charges, adjusted¹ operating income in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 was $41.1 million, or 8.4 percent of sales.

Defense - Defense segment net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2020 increased 7.1 percent to $547.5 million due to the continued ramp up of Joint Light Tactical Vehicle program sales to the U.S. government and higher aftermarket parts & service sales, offset in part by lower Family of Heavy Tactical Vehicle program sales.

Defense segment operating income in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 increased 35.6 percent to $40.0 million, or 7.3 percent of sales, compared to $29.5 million, or 5.8 percent of sales, in the third quarter of fiscal 2019. The increase in operating income was due to a negative cumulative catch-up adjustment on contract margins in the prior year quarter, the impact of higher sales volume and lower spending as a result of temporary cost reductions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, offset in part by higher warranty expense.

Fire & Emergency - Fire & Emergency segment net sales for the thirdquarter of fiscal 2020decreased8.9percent to $310.7 milliondue todecreased production rates in response to workforce availabilityconstraints and supplier parts shortages resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, offset in part by the catch-up of units affected by a supplier issue that prevented shipment in the second quarter of fiscal 2020.

Fire & Emergency segment operating income in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 decreased 6.1 percent to $47.6 million, or 15.3 percent of sales, compared to $50.7 million, or 14.9 percent of sales, in the third quarter of fiscal 2019. The decrease in operating income was largely a result of the impact of lower sales volume and an adverse sales mix, offset in part by improved pricing, lower incentive compensation accruals and lower spending as a result of temporary cost reductions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Excluding $1.1 million of pre-tax restructuring charges, adjusted¹ operating income in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 was $48.7 million, or 15.7 percent of sales.

Commercial - Commercial segment net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2020 decreased 16.3 percent to $247.7 million due to lower demand caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Commercial segment operating income in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 increased 10.7 percent to $23.8 million, or 9.6 percent of sales, compared to $21.5 million, or 7.3 percent of sales, in the third quarter of fiscal 2019. The increase in operating income was primarily due to the absence of business disruption inefficiencies caused by the weather-related partial roof collapse at one of its manufacturing facilities in February 2019 and favorable price/cost dynamics, offset in part by the impact of lower sales volumes. Excluding $1.5 million of pre-tax restructuring charges, adjusted¹ operating income in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 was $25.3 million, or 10.2 percent of sales.

Corporate - Corporate operating costs in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 decreased $7.5 million to $26.3 million primarily as a result of lower management incentive compensation accruals and lower spending in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Interest Expense Net of Interest Income - Interest expense net of interest income in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 decreased $0.5 million to $11.7 million.

Provision for Income Taxes - The Company recorded income tax expense in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 of $28.0 million, or 25.8 percent of pre-tax income, compared to $53.7 million, or 21.8 percent of pre-tax income, in the third quarter of fiscal 2019. Excluding the tax impact of restructuring costs of $1.8 million, adjusted¹ income tax expense in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 was $29.8 million, or 25.1 percent of adjusted pre-tax income.

Share Repurchases - Cumulative share repurchases over the past 12 months benefited earnings per share in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 by $0.03 compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2019.

Nine-month Results

The Company reported net sales for the first nine months of fiscal 2020 of $5.07 billion and net income of $224.5 million, or $3.26 per diluted share. This compares with net sales of $6.19 billion and net income of $429.4 million, or $6.05 per diluted share, in the first nine months of 2019. Results for the first nine months of fiscal 2020 included after-tax charges of $8.4 million associated with restructuring actions, an after-tax charge of $6.5 million associated with debt extinguishment costs incurred in connection with the refinancing of the Company’s senior notes and a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets in Europe of $11.4 million. Results for the first nine months of fiscal 2019 included a $7.0 million tax charge related to an adjustment of the repatriation tax required under tax legislation passed in the United States in December 2017. Excluding these charges, adjusted¹ net income was $250.8 million, or $3.64 per diluted share, and $436.4 million, or $6.15 per diluted share for the first nine months of fiscal 2020 and 2019, respectively. The reduction in net income for the first nine months of fiscal 2020 compared to the first nine months of fiscal 2019 was the result of the impact of

lower consolidated sales volumes, an adverse product mix and adverse absorption as a result of lower production, offset in part by improved price/cost dynamics and lower incentive compensation accruals. Cumulative share repurchases over the past 12 months benefited earnings per share in the first nine months of fiscal 2020 by $0.12 compared to the first nine months of fiscal 2019.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company reports its financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP). The Company is presenting various operating results both on a GAAP basis and on a basis excluding items that affect comparability of results. When the Company excludes certain items as described below, they are considered non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes excluding the impact of these items is useful to investors in comparing the Company’s performance to prior period results. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the Company’s results prepared in accordance with GAAP. The table below presents a reconciliation of the Company’s presented non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures (in millions, except per share amounts):
