Consolidated revenue in the third quarter was down 26 percent, driven primarily by an HDMC revenue decline of 32 percent, and partially offset by an HDFS revenue increase of 10 percent.

Consolidated operating income in the third quarter was $106 million, down 49 percent from prior year period. The result was driven primarily by an HDMC operating income decline of 69 percent, partially offset by an HDFS operating income increase of 29 percent, and a LiveWire operating loss in-line with our expectations. Consolidated operating income margin in the third quarter was 9.2 percent, which compares to 13.5 percent in the third quarter a year ago.

Third quarter global motorcycle shipments decreased by 39 percent, as dealers adjust inventory levels for the current retail environment. HDMC revenue was down 32 percent, driven primarily by the significant reduction in wholesale units shipped. Parts & Accessories revenue was down 6 percent due to lower customer traffic than prior year. Apparel revenue was up 13 percent.

Third quarter gross margin was down 1.6 points due to the impacts of lower volumes, negative operating leverage, and less favorable motorcycle mix, partially offset by favorable net pricing, favorable foreign exchange and lower raw material and supply chain management costs. Third quarter operating margin was 6.3 percent, where operating expenses were down 11 percent in the period but offset by the larger decline in revenue at HDMC, resulting in 7.2 points of operating margin decline.

Global retail motorcycle sales in the third quarter were down 13 percent versus prior year. North American retail performance was down 10 percent, as dealers observed a slowdown in customer traffic in the region, as customers assessed the higher interest rate environment and macro uncertainty. U.S. retail performance was down 1 percent in the nine-month YTD period year-over-year.

International markets have performed weaker than we expected, down 18 percent in the third quarter versus prior year. In EMEA, third quarter retail sales declined by 23 percent, with mixed performance on a country-by-country basis. In APAC, third quarter retail sales declined by 16 percent, with Japan softer than we expected and Australia & New Zealand experiencing growth. Latin America was largely flat. International retail sales were down 12 percent in the nine-month YTD period year-over-year.

HDFS operating income increased by $17 million in the third quarter, or 29 percent. The result was driven by higher interest income and a lower provision for credit losses, partially offset by increased borrowing costs, where operating expenses were largely flat.

LiveWire revenue for the third quarter decreased by 41 percent, due to a decrease in STACYC third party branded distributor volumes. LiveWire’s operating loss of $26 million dollars was $1 million more than a year ago, largely in-line with our expectations.

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, or other factors.

HDFS' retail credit losses have normalized in recent quarters to higher levels after a period of historically low levels of credit losses. Further, the Company believes that HDFS's retail credit losses will continue to change over time due to changing consumer credit behavior, macroeconomic conditions, including the impact of inflation and HDFS's efforts to increase prudently structured loan approvals to sub-prime borrowers. In addition, HDFS’s efforts to adjust underwriting criteria based on market and economic conditions and the actions that the Company has taken and could take that impact motorcycle values may impact HDFS's retail credit losses.

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 and the Red Sea conflict, or other factors. Refer to Risk Factors under Item 1.A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 and applicable updates under Item 1.A of the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 for a discussion of additional risk factors and a more complete discussion of some of the cautionary statements noted above.
