Third Quarter 2022 Results

Harley-Davidson, Inc. Consolidated Financial Results 

$ in millions (except EPS)	3rd quarter
	2022	2021	Change
Revenue	$1,649	$1,365	21 %
Operating Income	$339	$204	66 %
Net Income	$261	$163	60 %
GAAP Diluted EPS	$1.78	$1.05	70 %

Consolidated revenue was up 21 percent in the third quarter versus Q3 2021 driven primarily by HDMC revenue up 24 percent. The increase in HDMC revenue was driven by a strong recovery in global motorcycle shipments after being adversely impacted by an unexpected production suspension in Q2. Consolidated operating income growth of 66 percent, reflected 164 percent growth at HDMC and a decline of 24 percent at HDFS. In line with expectations, the HDFS decline was a result of a higher provision for credit losses as the credit environment normalizes, and higher interest expense. 

HDMC Results: Motorcycles and Related Products

$ in millions	3rd quarter
	2022	2021	Change
Motorcycle Shipments (thousands)	57.1	47.9	19 %
Revenue	$1,437	$1,161	24 %
Motorcycles	$1,134	$886	28 %
Parts & Accessories	$201	$205	(2 %)
Apparel	$70	$49	41 %
Licensing	$11	$8	26 %
Other	$22	$13	74 %
Gross Margin	34.1 %	26.7 %	7.4 pts.
Operating Income	$258	$98	164 %
Operating Margin	17.9 %	8.4 %	9.5 pts.

Global motorcycle shipments recovered strongly in Q3. HDMC Revenue was up 24 percent primarily driven by a 19 percent increase in wholesale shipments, favorable unit mix and continued global pricing strength. Parts & Accessories was down 2 percent driven by lower retail motorcycle volumes and offset by growth in Apparel & Licensing behind seasonal product growth.

Third quarter gross margin was up 7.4 points compared to Q3 prior year. Global pricing and mix contributed approximately 5 points of margin benefit and more than offset cost inflation. In addition, greater manufacturing leverage and lower tariffs contributed positively and more than offset existing foreign exchange headwinds. Third quarter operating margin improved to 17.9% from 8.4% in Q3 prior year due to the factors noted above. Total operating expenses were $20 million higher compared to Q3 prior year, due in part to the increased spend on LiveWire.

Harley-Davidson Retail Motorcycle Sales

Motorcycles (thousands)	3rd quarter
	2022	2021	Change
North America	32.2	33.9	(5 %)
EMEA	9.1	9.4	(4 %)
Asia Pacific	7.6	6.5	18 %
Latin America	0.8	1.0	(27 %)
Worldwide Total	49.6	50.8	(2 %)

Global retail motorcycle sales in the third quarter were down 2 percent versus prior year. Growth in Asia Pacific was driven by strong demand and a quick refill of dealer inventory coming out of the production suspension. North America retail performance (down 5 percent) continued to be adversely impacted by lower dealer inventories. Retail performance strengthened during the quarter as dealer inventories replenished.

HDFS Results: Financial Services

$ in millions	3rd quarter
	2022	2021	Change
Revenue	$212	$205	3 %
Operating Income	$81	$107	(24 %)

HDFS' operating income decline of $26 million versus Q3 2021 was driven by a higher provision for credit losses and higher interest expense, partially offset by lower operating expenses. The increase in the provision for credit losses was due to actual retail credit losses continuing to move towards normalized levels, while the credit loss allowance rate remained consistent. Total quarter ending financing receivables were $7.3B, which was up 7% versus prior year.

Other Results

• YTD generated $575 million of cash from operating activities.
• Cash and cash equivalents of $1.7 billion at the end of the third quarter, down $331 million compared to the end of the prior year third quarter.
• The Company's YTD effective tax rate was 23 percent.
• The Company paid cash dividends of $0.1575 per share in Q3 2022.
• In Q3 the Company repurchased $12 million of shares (0.4 million shares); YTD share repurchases total $324 million (8.4 million shares)

2022 Outlook

For the full year 2022, the Company reaffirms its guidance and continues to expect:

• HDMC revenue growth of 5 to 10%
• HDMC operating income margin of 11 to 12%
• HDFS operating income to decline by 20 to 25%

The Company now expects:

• Capital investments of $170 million to $190 million from a previously expected spend of $190 million to $220 million

The Company's ability to sell its motorcycles and related products and services and to meet its financial expectations also depends on the ability of the Company's dealers to sell its motorcycles and related products and services to retail customers. The Company depends on the capability and financial capacity of its dealers to develop and implement effective retail sales plans to create demand for the motorcycles and related products and services they purchase from the Company. In addition, the Company's dealers and distributors may experience difficulties in operating their businesses and selling Harley-Davidson motorcycles and related products and services as a result of weather, economic conditions, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, or other factors.

In recent years, Harley-Davidson Financial Services Inc. has experienced historically low levels of retail credit losses, but there is no assurance that this will continue. The Company believes that Harley-Davidson Financial Services Inc.'s retail credit losses will increase over time due among other things to factors that have contributed recently to low levels of losses, including the favorable impact of recent federal stimulus payments that will not recur and the conflict in Ukraine.

The Company's operations, demand for its products, and its liquidity could be adversely impacted by work stoppages, facility closures, strikes, natural causes, widespread infectious disease, terrorism, war or other hostilities, including the conflict in Ukraine, or other factors. Refer to "Risk Factors" under Item 1A. Risk Factors of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 as well as Item 1A. Risk Factors of the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended July 26, 2022 for a discussion of additional risk factors and a more complete discussion of some of the cautionary statements noted above.
