Mike Dennison: Thank you, V. Good afternoon everyone and thank you for joining us on our third quarter 2023 earnings call. Today, I will discuss our strategy operating highlights and business activity. Dennis will then discuss additional details on our financial results balance sheet and outlook. After our prepared remarks, we will open the call for questions. While FOX’s near-term results are clouded by the ongoing inventory recalibration in SSG and the impact of the UAW strike on both PVG and AAG’s results on a strategic level our three pillars of growth continue to prove powerful and resilient. One, our industry-leading high-performance brands continue to win market share; two, our research and development teams continue to innovate generating a deep and disruptive product development pipeline; and three, our one plus one equals three growth mindset continues to drive topline and bottom-line improvement.
Innovation and brand strength are the heart of our company and core to our go-to-market success as our technology engineers continue to challenge the impossible and lead in a never-ending pursuit of maximum performance. By focusing on the world’s best athletes and surpassing their demands, our team continues to outperform the competition launching award-winning products and designs that propel champion Fox athletes across the globe to new heights. In SSG, Fox athletes leveraging the highest quality products for the most extreme environments dominated the ENDURO and World Cup DH Race season winning 18 races and taking 89 podiums, more than any other suspension company. And it’s not just Fox products that are winning. Recently Race Face’s Turbine Wheel was named Bicycle Magazine’s Best Mountain Bike Wheel for 2023.
In our Powered Vehicles Group, the speed of innovation is accelerating as we commercialized 15 new vehicle suspension packages in 90 days. Over the last two quarters, we have launched more than 28 new packages, not only outperforming our nearest competitor, but far surpassing our own internal targets. We are at the top of our game and the results from FOX athletes around the world are the proof. But our work is never done and we will continue to invest in innovation and disruptive technologies to enable FOX athletes in a relentless drive to win. That same innovation is leveraging dramatic gains for us within and across our AAG portfolio, as we drive our one plus one equals three growth thesis. When we purchased Custom Wheel House, we knew we were buying a superior brand of the best wheels in the business.
But what we didn’t know was how quickly their products would be integrated into the AAG family of businesses. The award-winning Method wheels are being integrated into our premium packages and systems across BDS, Ridetech and Powered Vehicle divisions leading to better performance aesthetics and higher profitability. Our ability to find companies that act and operate with the same level of innovation, enthusiast loyalty and a culture to drive a never-ending pursuit of maximum performance are the keys for our strategic growth and profitability. That’s why I could not be more pleased to announce today that we signed a definitive agreement to acquire Marucci Sports, an industry-leading innovator, designer, manufacturer and distributor of highly engineered premium performance, aluminum, composite and wood baseball bats as well as other Diamond Sports products.
Marucci checks all the boxes as we combine two leading brands that are disrupting their respective industries through innovation and technology. Building on the tradition of winning and creating the best performing products for the most demanding athletes, Marucci is unmatched as its halo brands Marucci and Victus wood bats drive more than 56% market share with Major League baseball Pros. Marucci is a continuation of our diversification strategy expanding our business away from OEs and into the aftermarket and it is apparently of our one plus one equals three strategy having made several acquisitions including Lizard Skins and Baum Bats that are creating exponential growth vectors within our portfolio. We see a significant TAM opportunity for Marucci and potential to unlock new growth vectors expanding far beyond diamond sports.
Not only do we expect Marucci to be accretive to FOX’s growth and EBITDA margin, but we are also excited about the synergy potential in metallurgy, manufacturing and supply chain. While there is so much to be excited about with this deal, what inspires me the most is the similarities in our cultures. Having spent considerable time with the Marucci team, its authenticity is undeniable and is founded by and led by a collective group of former elite athletes and coaches. Walking the hallways and meeting employees, I honestly felt like I was in a Fox Factory where winning is everything and challenging impossible happens every day. Turning to our operating highlights. Sales in SSG hit a low watermark in the third quarter as expected, only contributing $72 million in revenue, as OEs continue to focus on depleting inventory through discounts and promotional activities.
Actual sales were lower than our estimate for the quarter by approximately $25 million, as we saw slower buying patterns, especially in September, as consumers adjust in an environment of higher interest rates and costs coupled with macroeconomic uncertainty. Both PVG and AAG experienced growth year-on-year of 12% and 8% respectively, but declined sequentially by 12% and 13% respectively, as the UAW strike impacted both groups. Legacy PVG was impacted by reduced shipments given OE manufacturing site closures and OE supply chain disruptions, as well as a delayed launch of a new model just prior to the strike. AAG was impacted sooner than expected, as dealers were prioritized for chassis deployment over our upfitting group. In addition, we also received a weaker mix of chassis which caused us to miss higher-value contented vehicles in exchange for lower contented lower-priced packages.
Between AAG and PVG, we estimate a reduction in sales of approximately $45 million in Q3 2023 versus our outlook. While we continue to address the near-term pressure on the top line, we delivered strong adjusted EBITDA margins of 19.2% with lower revenue marking the third consecutive quarter, where our adjusted EBITDA margins exceeded 19%. Our strong and consistent bottom line performance and our ability to manage an exceptional balance sheet, fuel our ability to allocate capital to unlock our one plus one equals three growth and diversification strategy. This consistent financial performance also resulted in our Board of Directors approving a share repurchase plan up to $300 million providing us with another strategic use of our cash returning value to shareholders.
Authorization of a share buyback plan of up to 8% of our outstanding shares, demonstrates our belief in the strength in our operating model and growth plans. With the UAW strike nearing a formalized settlement, our customers in AAG and PVG are enthusiastic about the future given the innovative product offerings and go-to-market strategies that we are delivering. However, businesses in AAG and PVG were impacted throughout October, and we expect residual impacts in November as OEs work to restart supply chains and rent manufacturing. In SSG, we continue to see softness as the channel works through inventory. We recently met with the CEOs and executive teams of our largest and most important bicycle customers. While they remain optimistic about the future, especially the acceleration of e-bike across various categories, they acknowledge that the path of new models and technology will be modestly delayed as they work their way through excess inventory in the channel.
Additionally, we are seeing consumers grappling with a higher cost environment and our distributors cope with a higher interest rate environment by scaling back on inventory levels. Given these impacts, we are reducing our full year guide from a low end of $1.67 billion to $1.7 billion to $1.3 billion to $1.47 billion. While we continue to work through the channel inventory recalibration in SSG and return to a more normalized run rate, our year-to-date growth in PVG and AAG of 35% and 16% respectively give us confidence in our growth thesis. The strength of our brands our unrivaled history of innovation and discovery, the strong growth in automotive and powered vehicles and the one plus one equals three TAM expanding acquisition Marucci put us on a trajectory to accomplish our 2025 vision of $2 billion in sales and 25% EBITDA margins.
To conclude, we acknowledge the challenges in front of us, but at the same time we are pleased with top and bottom line performance, thanks to the power of our brands, our customer loyalty and our incredibly talented and dedicated team members. As our history has proven, no matter what the challenge is, we have always found ways to grow our business, be it through new product categories, adjacencies, geographies or manufacturing efficiencies. And with that, I’ll turn the call over to Dennis.
Dennis Schemm : Thanks Mike, and good afternoon everyone. I’ll begin by discussing our third quarter financial results, and then move to our balance sheet and cash flows, our upcoming acquisition of Marucci, and our capital structure strategy, and then wrap up with a review of our guidance. Total consolidated net sales in the third quarter of 2023 were $331.1 million, a decrease of 19.1% versus sales of $409.2 million in the third quarter of 2022. The Powered Vehicles Group PVG delivered a 12.4% increase in net sales in the third quarter compared to the same quarter last year. This performance was negatively impacted in the weeks leading up to and after the UAW strike given OE manufacturing site closures and OE supply chain disruptions, as well as a delayed launch of a new model.
Our aftermarket applications group, AAG delivered an 8.2% increase in net sales in the third quarter compared to the same quarter last year. This growth was driven by sales from Custom Wheel House acquisition, which was completed in March of 2023. Excluding Custom Wheel House, AAG sales declined 7.2% as OEMs temporarily provided chassis preference to dealers above our upfitting group resulting in a chassis mix on hand that was associated with lower content and lower price point vehicles. Net sales in the Specialty Sports Group, SSG decreased by 58.6% compared to the third quarter of 2022 due to the persistent level of high inventory across various channels. While we still expect SSG’s Q3 performance to be the trough for the year, we expect the inventory recalibration to continue through the first half of 2024.
We experienced lower demand across both AAG and SSG, as dealers and distributors pulled back on inventory given higher inventory carrying costs and as consumers adjusted to a rising interest rate and an uncertain macroeconomic environment. Fox Factory’s gross margin was 32.4% in the third quarter of 2023, a 110 basis point decrease from 33.5% in the same period in the prior year. The decrease in gross margin in Q3 of 2023 is primarily driven by a shift in our product line mix, and the impact of the UAW strike offset by increased efficiencies at our North American facility. Our decision to protect our highly skilled workforce during the UAW strike also impacted our gross margins. Given the temporary short duration nature of the strike, this was the absolute right decision to take.
Adjusted gross margin which excludes the effects of amortization of acquired inventory valuation markup, organizational restructuring expenses and strategic transformation costs decreased 70 basis points to 33.2% versus Q3 of 2022. The sustainable manufacturing efficiency gains in PVG were another key ingredient to Fox’s solid gross and EBITDA margin in light of a $78 million decline in revenue. Total operating expenses were $65.9 million or 19.9% of sales in the third quarter of 2023 compared to $71.9 million or 17.6% of sales in the third quarter of last year. Operating expenses were lower compared to the same quarter in the prior period due to strong cost controls and continuous improvement, partially offset by the inclusion of Custom Wheel House operating expenses of $4.7 million, amortization of acquired intangibles and operating expenses associated with facility expansions.
Adjusted operating expenses as a percentage of sales increased by 180 basis points to 17.6% in the third quarter of 2023 compared to 15.8% in the same period in the prior year. The company’s effective tax rate was 9% in the third quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to 20.8% in the third quarter of fiscal 2022. The change in the effective tax rate was due to a benefit from R&D tax credits. Net income in the third quarter of 2023 was $35.3 million or $0.83 per diluted share compared to $50.8 million or $1.20 per diluted share in the same prior year period. Adjusted net income was $44.8 million in the third quarter of 2023, a decrease of approximately $12.6 million or 22% compared to $57.4 million in the third quarter of last year. We delivered $1.05 of adjusted earnings per diluted share in the third quarter of 2023 compared to $1.35 in the third quarter of 2022.
Adjusted EBITDA decreased by 25.1% to $63.7 million for the third quarter of 2023 compared to $85.1 million in the same quarter last year. Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased by 160 basis points to 19.2% in the third quarter of 2023 compared to 20.8% in the third quarter of 2022. The decrease in the adjusted EBITDA margin in the third quarter of 2023 is primarily due to the change in the product mix the impact of the UAW strike and cost increases associated, with our facilities expansions to support our continued growth. Adjusted EBITDA margins were sequentially flat even while sales decreased in the quarter, given our rigorous cost controls and continuous improvement mindset. Moving to the balance sheet and cash flows. Our balance sheet continues to be a source of strength for Fox and underpins our capital allocation strategy.
We decreased inventory by $9.4 million driven by our continuous improvement efforts to further optimize inventory levels across the organization. These efforts are significant given the addition of $15 million of inventory related to the Custom Wheel House addition. Year-to-date we generated $127 million in operating cash flows $70 million more than the same period last year and a sequential improvement of $129 million. Our net leverage is 0.5 times with our revolver balance at $190 million as of September 30th. Our flexible capital structure allows us to efficiently access the accordion feature in our revolver to secure an incremental $600 million in pro rata Term Loan A debt to finance the Marucci transaction. The Term Loan A is coterminous with our existing revolver and the interest rate is 50 basis points higher than our existing revolver.
This incremental borrowing will provide us with significant flexibility to address our capital allocation priorities of investing in growth both inorganic and organic, paying down debt and returning value to shareholders. The merger with Marucci Sports represents our largest acquisition to date. We expect that Marucci will be accretive to our revenue and earnings given its strong growth vectors and EBITDA margins of 25%. Marucci is core to our diversification strategy providing for diversification within SSG with new products and end customers and providing for diversification across our existing businesses as it is acyclical in nature. We expect pro forma leverage to be roughly 2.1 times after the transaction is completed. Our core investments in R&D continue to support our growth and margin profile.
In PVG, our R&D efforts resulted in 15 new products just this quarter. In SSG, our investments continue to drive innovation supporting podium-winning FOX riders. And in AAG, we continue to invest in improving content and design for our off-road upfitting business and for our new business venture in side-by-side upfitting where we are designing the premium high-performance state-of-the-art prototypes. Our revolver balance as of September 30th is $190 million versus $200 million as of December 31, 2022. We paid down $170 million through the third quarter of fiscal 2023 given our strong operating cash flows, which more than doubled on a year-to-date basis. Our Board of Directors recently approved a $300 million share repurchase program. While we are a growth company at heart, we see sufficient capital to continue investing in innovation and efficiencies, which will drive organic growth in a thoughtful and disciplined approach.
Given the current macroeconomic environment and our strong cash flow generation, we believe using a portion of our free cash flow to manage dilution and to opportunistically repurchase shares is a strategic use of our capital. Now, I’d like to share some select guidance. While we are pleased that the big three have reached a tentative agreement with the UAW, our fourth quarter results have already been impacted both in AAG and in PVG. And we expect to see additional impacts as the OEMs work through supply chain inefficiencies as they bring up their manufacturing facilities. Additionally, we are facing headwinds due to the higher interest rate environment and macroeconomic outlook at the consumer level and at the dealer distributor level as the cost of carrying inventory is more expensive.
While SSG hit trough revenues in Q3, the inventory recalibration is taking longer than anticipated and we expect fourth quarter revenue to be up modestly on a sequential basis. For the fourth quarter of 2023, we expect sales in the range of $300 million to $340 million and non-GAAP adjusted earnings per diluted share in the range of $0.75 to $1. For the fiscal year 2023, the company expects sales in the range of $1.43 billion to $1.47 billion and adjusted earnings per diluted share to be in the range of $4.20 to $4.45. Our full year guidance assumes an income tax rate to be in the range of approximately 15%. We are certainly operating in a dynamic environment and we’ll continue to watch retail and consumer trends to adjust our cost and business model accordingly.
However, because of our strong and flexible capital structure, we are working from a position of strength during this downturn and investing in growth with new products in SSG and PVG in content for our upfitting business, production capabilities in our outside bands and new side-by-side facilities and furthering distribution for Custom Wheel House and Shock Therapy as we see tremendous opportunity for longer-term growth and profitability. With that I’d like to turn the call back over to Mike.
Mike Dennison: Thank you, Dennis. As we close out a challenging third quarter I am confident in the diversity of our portfolio the capability of the management team and the future of our brands. I am pleased with our strong financial performance even with the top-line miss as we weather the impact of the UAW strike and the persistent channel inventory recalibration in SSG. The relentless drive to win within our culture and by our people gives me deep inspiration and confidence in our future. Armed with a strong balance sheet and cash flow a newly authorized share repurchase program and our TAM unlocking technologies and growth vectors, I remain incredibly excited about our positioning in future. I would now like to open the call for questions. Operator?

Operator: Thank you, sir. [Operator Instructions] Our first question comes from Larry Solow, CJS Securities.
Larry Solow: Thanks. Good afternoon, guys.
Mike Dennison: Hi, Larry.
Dennis Schemm: Hi, Larry.
Larry Solow: First question just on Marucci, certainly a surprise a little bit I guess an adjacency for sure. Is it just simply the enthusiast culture the strong brand. I know Marucci I know the CAT X so I know a lot about this, but I’m just trying to kind of tie the bow there and figure out exactly what drove you to this acquisition?
Mike Dennison: Yes, Larry good question. We’ve been looking for the right brand the right product in specialty sports for a long time one as you and I have been talking we’ve been looking for the right fit. What we found with Marucci is a bunch of really great things. First and foremost, it’s a highly engineered product. It’s really designed from the top-down meaning with the pro athletes down to the little over as you said with the CAT X. So these are highly engineered products. They leverage aluminum and composite and everything about the major leagues. So obviously that’s what we do for living and aluminum and composite materials. So the synergies that we can create and design engineering and manufacturing are pretty significant on a long-term basis.
In addition, when we watch the Marucci and met their leadership team, their culture, their passion the way they think about the business the fact that most of them come from major leagues or their being scouts or college players or softball players it’s us. It’s literally FOX with different name. And so when you think about the product, you think about the engineering, you think about the pro athlete first down to weekend waters or in this case the little again and then you think about the culture. And then you think about the financials which are accretive both from an EBITDA perspective and from a revenue perspective you look at it and you go you know what this checks all the boxes. This is the best thing we have seen for specialty sports since I’ve been the CEO and we were just thrilled to add them.
So this is a great day for us.
Larry Solow: Okay. And I would like if my math is right you’re paying about 11.5 times trailing EBITDA. I happen to follow their owner Compass so that’s how I know that. And is that going to be immediately accretive? I know you got some increase but immediately accretive…
Michael Dennison: Yes. I’ll let Dennis weigh into it. We’ll get the financials out. You’ll see kind of how that all gets structured. It’s in line with most of our multiples that we paid for the businesses that we’ve bought. So not be quite right. But I’ll let Dennis speak to kind of the accretive nature…
Dennis Schemm: I mean this is definitely accretive for us both on the revenue line on the EBITDA line. I mean we’re seeing EBITDA margins roughly speaking around 25%. That’s higher than our flagship as well. And then we start getting into the one plus one equals three mentality here. This thing explodes. So they are the epitome of a one plus one equals three already, right? So when you look at what they’ve done over the past couple of years they’ve brought on Victus, Lizard Skins, Baum Bat and you wrap those things together you start to grow that business pretty rapidly. So that’s just on the top-line. And then when I look at the bottom-line there’s some vertical integration that really gets me excited as well with the batwood manufacturing, and then on the supply chain side of things where these guys crank it, when it came to the pandemic time frame and nobody else could deliver their supply chain kicked it into gear.
They want a lot of shelf space, during that time. So again, another synergistic play for us because we did so well with SSG during the pandemic as well when no one else could deliver.
Larry Solow: Yeah. Got you. And if I could just switch gears real fast just on to SSG. And obviously you guys called the bottom obviously a little bit lower this quarter. It still feels like there’s still some inventory in the channel and still some other issues. Clearly, you’re going to grow next year from these levels. But Mike on the last quarterly call, I think you kind of thought you can get back to 2021 levels, right, or the 2022 ex that extra $100 million, I know, you don’t want to give guidance for 2024 now but any just broad rush color on that would be great.
Mike Dennison: Yes. What we’re seeing when we talk to CEOs and executives of the buy companies some are in great shape. Some actually are growing with us right now which is kind of hard to believe in the current environment. But those companies that really control their manufacturing most of the manufacturing has been house they have good control their supply chains. Other companies are still projecting that they’re in an inventory bled situation for the first half of next year. So as we look forward, we see kind of the first half being softer than we’d like and then finally kind of kicking it into gear in the second half. So we’re not going to give guidance. I still think those long-term projections are right how they hit us and when they hit it in 2024, I think we’ll have to keep working to figure out.
And as you know, Larry, the challenge right now is your vision or your view of the quarter we’re in or the next quarter that we’re going into is pretty short. It’s about 45 days right now. So we’re still collecting information as you think about Q4 pretty hard for me to give you a really good clarity on Q1 and Q2 just yet.
Larry Solow: No, its fair enough. Okay. Thanks so much. Appreciate guys.
Mike Dennison: Thanks, Larry.
Operator: Our next question comes from Jim Duffy, Stifel.
Jim Duffy: Thanks. Hi, guys. Big list package with the acquisition of that company still working on it but there has to be a good title for my note in there somewhere. Let’s set the quarter…
Mike Dennison: Do you want to enter our contest? We’re seeing who comes up with the most clever line.
Jim Duffy: So let’s set the quarter and near-term aside just for a moment from a very strategic level and looking over a multiple year period, what’s changed with respect to your outlook for the automotive and bike opportunity that says allocation of capital to a totally different business is the best course?
Mike Dennison: Yeah. The allocation of capital has stayed intact for our PVG and AAG businesses. We’re going to continue to be acquisitive and we’re going to continue to grow those businesses. And we’re going to do the same in bite selectively. The challenge right now in bike is a lot of the businesses that are open or potentially acquirable are still trying to figure out their own inventory situation. We’re trying to figure out their go-to-market strategies. As within the bike industry, FOX stands out as probably one of the leaders with both top and bottom line performance relative to the different companies most of them are private. But we’ve got a great business inside of that industry. And as you know, we’ve always been trying to diversify and really actually make SSG what we call it Specialty Sports Group.
So this was the right opportunity and the right time to go diversify in that space. But it doesn’t take any away from finding good acquisitions good targeting capital where appropriate in the other businesses as well. The best thing we got going for us is a great balance sheet and the opportunity to be selective in those investments and very critical the investments we make.
Jim Duffy: Okay. Again kind of with that longer-term view I’m thinking specific to the up-fitting business you’ve seen kind of a stall in that business in the near term. And I understand the UAW strike impact. But we’re at prospects for that business as you look out to 2024, 2025. What do you see as the incremental drivers? What are the things you’re really enthused about there? And what are the risks to kind of achieving on those opportunities?
Mike Dennison: Yeah, it’s a little bit clunky right now as you said. So whether it’s just going to be that way for a few months or a quarter while we work through this strike impact. But that broader PVG business is so important to us. A couple of things. One outside advance we’re getting that new facility up and running for production. So we’re still deep in the middle of that process. Dennis and I were just out there about a week ago, meeting with the team understanding where we’re at and growing that part of the business. We then went to Phoenix to our side-by-side upfitting business, which is just getting launched in [indiscernible] and I talked to you about this before, I think that side-by-side upfitting business is going to just absolutely crush it.
In fact, our partners in that business like Polaris and some of our distributor dealers, our partners are thrilled about what we’ve designed and developed. So I think in 2024, that’s going to be a major player for us in upfitting. And then the other thing we’re seeing in upfitting, which is really interesting is that while volume of units might be down, if they get the right chassis mix the content on the vehicles is going up. And our ability to actually sell higher-priced vehicles with more content seems to be much more recession resistant than that on the low end where we’re adding smaller packages, less content and more than middle market vehicles. So the really benefits us as we think about the engineering and all the content we can have new vehicles to continue pushing that upper end of that upper limit, which is good from both the top line and a profitability perspective in that business.
And as you know, because we’ve talked about it that upfitting business for us, is the higher end of our margin range. So we’re doubling down, nothing else about it. We’re going to double down on that business to keep growing it.
Jim Duffy: Thanks Mike. I have to ask one on the bat business. Just given the pandemic, how do you know you’re not acquiring a business that’s over earned for a period? Do you have a comparison to 2019 that you can reference to? Just give us comfort that you have some visibility into that business continuing to grow.
