See notes to consolidated financial statements 5 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ------------------------------------------ 1. The July 31, 2000 amounts are taken from the audited financial statements. The interim financial statements are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which consist of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented have been made. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2000. The results of operations for the third quarter ended April 30, 2001, are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. Certain amounts in the financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the April 30, 2001 presentation. These changes were made to conform to Emerging Issues Task Force 00-10, "Accounting for Shipping and Handling Costs." 2. Major classifications of inventories are:

6. In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin 101 (SAB 101), "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements", which provides guidance on applying accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, for recognizing revenue. SAB 101 is effective for the fourth quarter of fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1999. The Company believes it is in compliance with SAB101 and there will be no impact on its consolidated financial statements. 7. Investments - The Company classifies its debt and equity securities as trading or available-for-sale. Trading securities are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term. All securities not included in trading are classified as available-for-sale. Trading and available-for-sale investments are recorded at fair value. Unrealized holding gains and losses on trading investments are included in earnings. Unrealized holding gains and losses, net of the related tax effect, on available-for-sale investments are excluded from earnings and are reported as a separate component of comprehensive income, net of income taxes until realized. Realized gains and losses from the sale of available-for-sale investments are determined on a specific-identification basis. Dividend and interest income are recognized when earned. At April 30, 2001, the Company held equity investments with a fair value of $4,129,051 and cost basis of $6,443,146. The investments are classified as available-for-sale and included in investments. Gross unrealized losses were $2,314,095. The Company has certain corporate debt investments that are classified as trading investments and reported as Investments - short term. Included in other income for the nine months ended April 30, 2001 are net realized gains on trading investments of $131,340. 7 MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION --------------------------------------------------------- AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS ------------------------- Quarter Ended April 30, 2001 vs. Quarter Ended April 30, 2000 ------------------------------------------------------------- Net sales for the third quarter totaled $221,028,840, down 11.6% from $250,119,544 in the same period last year. Income before income taxes was $11,522,450, down 32% from $16,944,118 last year. The decrease in income before income taxes of $5,421,668 was primarily attributed to reduced recreational vehicle revenues for the period of $49,621,138, which resulted in an approximate $6,523,000 reduction in income before income taxes. Bus revenues were $20,530,434 greater than the third quarter last year, which resulted in an approximate $1,125,000 increase in income before income taxes. There were no losses on divestment of operations for the quarter ended April 30, 2001, which resulted in an increase in income before income taxes of $1,120,000 compared to the same period last year; however, this increase was offset by a favorable insurance adjustment of approximately $855,000 in the quarter ended April 30, 2000. Recreational vehicle revenues of $146,705,734 were 25.3% lower than $196,326,872 last year, and accounted for 66.4% of total Company revenues compared to 78.5% last year. Recreational vehicle order backlog of $63,355,000 at April 30, 2001 was down 44.2% compared to the same period last year and reflects the continuing softness in the overall R.V. market. Bus revenues of $74,323,106 were 38.2% higher than last year's $53,792,672 and accounted for 33.6% of total Company revenues compared to 21.5% last year. Bus vehicle order backlog of $188,617,000 at April 30, 2001 was 2.1% lower than the same period last year. Gross profit decreased as a percentage of sales from 13.1% in the third quarter ended April 30, 2000 to 11.4% at April 30, 2001 due primarily to lower recreational vehicle volume. There were no price increases during the quarter ended April 30, 2001. Selling, general and administrative expense and amortization of intangibles decreased to $14,388,246 from $15,590,080 last year. However, as a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expense were 6.5% for the quarter this year compared to 6.2% last year. This increase as a percentage of net sales revenue compared to last year is due largely to the favorable $855,000 insurance adjustment in the quarter last year. Interest income for the quarter was approximately the same as last year due primarily to investable cash being higher than last year offsetting lower market rates. Interest expense increased by approximately $138,000, primarily due to interest paid on increased bus chassis pools. The overall effective income tax rate was 41.6% for the quarter ended April 30, 2001 compared to 40.5% last year. This difference is due primarily to timing of recording the Company's foreign sales corporation's savings. Nine Months Ended April 30, 2001 vs. Nine Months Ended April 30, 2000 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Net sales for the nine months totaled $604,030,823, down 10.4% from $674,438,658 in the same period last year. Income before income taxes was $30,784,353, down 31.4% from $44,852,359 last year. The decrease in income before income taxes of $14,068,006 was primarily attributed to reduced recreational vehicle revenues for the period of $111,997,689, which resulted in an approximate $16,889,000 reduction in income before income taxes. Bus revenues were $41,589,854 greater than the nine month period last year, which resulted in an approximate $1,593,000 increase in income before income taxes. There were no losses on divestment of operations for the nine months ended April 30, 2001, which resulted in an increase in income before income taxes of approximately $2,048,000 compared to the same period last year; however, this increase was partially offset by the favorable insurance adjustment of approximately $855,000 in the quarter ended April 30, 2000. 8 MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION --------------------------------------------------------- AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS ------------------------- (CONTINUED) ----------- Recreational vehicle revenues of $388,998,153 were 22.4% lower than last year's $500,995,842 and accounted for 64.4% of total Company revenues compared to 74.3% last year. Bus revenues of $215,032,670 were 24% higher than last year's $173,442,816 and accounted for 35.6% of total Company revenues compared to 25.7% last year. Bus revenues were up primarily due to increased unit sales. Gross profit decreased as a percentage of net sales from 13.0% for the nine months ended April 30, 2000 to 11.4% for the nine months ended April 30, 2001 due primarily to lower recreational vehicle volumes. There were no price increases during the nine months ended April 30,2001. Selling, general and administrative expenses and amortization of intangibles decreased to $41,402,327 from $43,440,405. However, as a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses were 6.9% compared to 6.4% last year. This increase as a percentage of sales revenue compared to last year is due primarily to additional sales programs and incentives for recreational vehicles in a highly competitive soft market environment this year and the favorable $855,000 insurance adjustment last year. Interest income increased by approximately $507,000 for the nine months ended April 30, 2001 due to increased investable cash. Interest expense increased by approximately $279,000 primarily due to interest paid on increased bus chassis pools. The overall effective income tax rate was 40.6% for the nine months ended April 30, 2001 compared to 41.0% last year due primarily to a tax refund of $165,000 in the second quarter of fiscal 2001. Financial Condition and Liquidity --------------------------------- As of April 30, 2001, Thor had $56,500,462 in cash, cash equivalents and short term investments, compared to $77,963,445 on July 31, 2000. The Company classifies its debt and equity securities as "trading" or "available for sale". The former are carried on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as Cash and Cash Equivalents or Investments - Short Term. The latter are carried on the Consolidated Balance Sheet under the caption "Investments" - "Investments available for sale". Trading securities are, generally, bought and held for sale in the near term. All other securities are classified as available for sale. In each case, the securities are carried at fair market value. Unrealized gains or losses on trading investments are included in earnings. Unrealized gains and losses on investments classified as available for sale, net of related tax affect, are not included in earnings, but appear as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive loss on the Consolidated Balance Sheet, until the gain or loss is realized upon the disposition of the investment or if a decline in the fair market value is determined to be other than temporary. Due to the relative short term maturity (average 6 months) of the trading securities, principally investment grade securities composed of asset backed notes, mortgage backed notes and corporate bonds, management does not believe that changes in fair market value will have a significant impact on the Company's financial position or results of future operations. 9 MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION --------------------------------------------------------- AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS ------------------------- (CONTINUED) ----------- Working capital at April 30, 2001 was $142,286,636 compared to $138,909,444 at July 31, 2000. The Company has no long term debt. The Company currently has a $30,000,000 revolving line of credit. There were no borrowings on the line of credit at April 30, 2001. The loan agreement contains certain covenants including restriction on additional indebtedness, and the Company must maintain certain financial ratios. The line of credit bears interest at negotiated rates below prime and expires on November 30, 2001. The Company believes that internally generated funds and the revolving credit agreement will be sufficient to meet current needs and additional capital requirements. Capital expenditures of $14,502,894 were primarily for the continued expansion of the Komfort R.V. facility and the expansion of the Company's bus operations. The Company anticipates additional capital expenditures in 2001 of approximately $ 4,100,000 primarily for the completion of its Komfort RV facility and Kansas bus facility. During the nine months of fiscal 2001, Thor purchased 149,400 shares of its common stock, increasing treasury stock by $3,006,036. Forward Looking Statements -------------------------- This report includes certain statements that are "forward looking" statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as amended. These forward-looking statements involve uncertainties and risks. There can be no assurances that actual results will not differ from the Company's expectations. Factors which could cause materially different results, include, among others, the success of new product introduction, the pace of acquisition and cost structure improvements, competitive and general economic conditions. The Company disclaims any obligation or undertaking to disseminate any updates or revisions to any change in expectation of the Company after the date hereof or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any statement is based except as required by law. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk ---------------------------------------------------------- The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency related to its operations in Canada. However, because of the size of Canadian operations, a hypothetical 10% change in the Canadian dollar as compared to the U.S. dollar would not have a significant impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations. The Company is also exposed to market risks related to interest rates because of its investments in corporate debt securities. A hypothetical 10% change in interest rates would not have a significant impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.
