BUSINESS SEGMENTS BUSINESS SEGMENTS
The Company has three reportable segments, all related to recreational vehicles: (1) North American towables, (2) North American motorized and (3) European.

The North American towable recreational vehicle reportable segment consists of the following operating segments that have been aggregated: Airstream (towable), Heartland (including Cruiser RV and DRV), Jayco (including Jayco towable, Starcraft and Highland Ridge), Keystone (including CrossRoads and Dutchmen), KZ (including Venture RV) and Tiffin Group (namely, Vanleigh RV). The North American motorized recreational vehicle reportable segment consists of the following operating segments that have been aggregated: Airstream (motorized), Jayco (including Jayco motorized and Entegra Coach), Thor Motor Coach and Tiffin Group (primarily Tiffin Motorhomes, Inc.). The European recreational vehicles reportable segment consists solely of the EHG business. EHG manufactures a full line of towable and motorized recreational vehicles, including motorcaravans, caravans and campervans in eight primary RV production locations within Europe. EHG produces and sells numerous brands primarily within Europe, including Buccaneer, Buerstner, Carado, Compass, CrossCamp, Dethleffs, Elddis, Eriba, Etrusco, Hymer, Laika, LMC, Niesmann+Bischoff, Sunlight and Xplore. In addition, EHG’s operations include other RV-related products and services.

The operations of the Company’s Postle and Togo Group subsidiaries are included in “Other,” which is a non-reportable segment. Net sales included in Other relate primarily to the sale of aluminum extrusions and specialized component products. Intercompany eliminations adjust for Postle sales to the Company’s North American towable and North American motorized segments, which are consummated at established transfer prices generally consistent with the selling prices of extrusion components to third-party customers.
Total assets include those assets used in the operation of each reportable and non-reportable segment, and the Corporate assets consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, deferred income taxes, deferred compensation plan assets and certain Corporate real estate holdings primarily utilized by THOR’s U.S.-based operating subsidiaries.
