Fox Factory Holding Corp., a leader in designing and manufacturing high-performance products for specialty sports and vehicles, recently announced its financial results for the third quarter of fiscal 2024. The company is known for its premium brands and a diverse product lineup, including shocks, suspension systems, and specialized sports gear.

In the third quarter of fiscal 2024, Fox Factory reported net sales of $359.1 million, marking an 8.5% increase compared to the same period last year. Despite these gains, revenue and earnings per share fell within the low end of the company’s guidance range, reflecting ongoing challenges in consumer discretionary spending due to broader market conditions.

Key financial metrics showed mixed results, with a notable 21.9% sequential increase in bike revenues, which also grew 38.7% year-over-year. However, the company faced a decrease in net sales for its Aftermarket Applications Group (AAG) and Powered Vehicles Group (PVG), attributed to lower industry demand and higher interest rates. Gross margin saw a decline to 29.9% from 32.4% due to shifts in product mix and reduced operating leverage.

To navigate market challenges, Fox Factory has initiated strategic actions to improve inventory positions and announced expanded cost optimization efforts targeting over $25 million in savings across its operations. The company also executed $400 million in interest rate swap hedges to mitigate interest expenses.

Looking ahead, Fox Factory remains committed to enhancing operational efficiency and capitalizing on future opportunities as consumer demand improves. The company expects continued efforts in cost reduction and strategic positioning to yield significant free cash flow and support its growth ambitions.
