Mr. Happe continued, “As we look ahead to Fiscal 2021, we are encouraged by the ongoing outdoor recreation demand trends we are experiencing. We have built a strong and growing position in the RV market, and our customers continue to view all our brands as a trusted and safe way to have extraordinary experiences as they travel, live, work, and play in the outdoors. I’m incredibly proud of the progress we have made over the last several years expanding Winnebago Industries' portfolio while simultaneously enhancing the quality of our product lineup and service levels and the profitability we are able to achieve. During fiscal year 2020, we continued to expand our family of outstanding brands with the acquisition of Newmar, and when combined with our Winnebago, Grand Design RV, and Chris-Craft brands, we believe we have four of the most respected brands in the outdoors industry. We have expanded our leadership team capabilities as well in the past year, through the acquisition of Newmar and also through adding new talent to the team in Huw Bower to lead our Winnebago Outdoors business, as announced at the end of September. Going forward, we are committed to managing our Company in a highly disciplined fashion so that we are best positioned to build on our momentum in the marketplace, capture the numerous opportunities we believe lie ahead and deliver further value to the customers and communities we serve. Finally, Fiscal 2020 also marks an inflection point in our efforts to improve on our corporate responsibility obligations. It is our strong intention that through these initiatives, our Winnebago Industries team will emerge as an even stronger leader in our communities, and in so doing, will make a meaningful contribution to an improvement in the many dimensions of social justice.”
