Item 8.01 Other Events.

Due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak, the Polaris 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan (the “Plan”) is filing this current report on Form 8-K to avail itself of an extension to file its Annual Report on Form 11-K for the plan year ended December 31, 2019 (the “Form 11-K”). The Plan is relying on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Order under Section 36 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Modifying Exemptions From the Reporting and Proxy Delivery Requirements for Public Companies dated March 25, 2020 (Release No. 34-88465) (the “Order”).

As previously disclosed, the operations and business of Polaris Inc. (the “Company”), which is the sponsor of the Plan, have experienced disruptions due to the unprecedented conditions surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, including furloughs for many employees at the Company’s corporate office in the second fiscal quarter of 2020 to manage costs. Specifically, the Plan is relying on the Order due to limited availability of key Company personnel to prepare and review the Form 11-K. This has been caused by employee furloughs and the time and attention needed for business and operational issues resulting from COVID-19. The Plan anticipates that it will file its Annual Report no later than 45 days after the original June 28, 2020 due date for the Form 11-K.
