  7. THOR OPERATING ENTITIES – STRONG BRANDS 7

  8. STRATEGIC VISION FOR GROWTH At Thor we strive to provide RV consumers with superior products and services through innovative solutions which enhance the enjoyment of the RV lifestyle Our decentralized operating structure and independent operating subsidiaries foster an entrepreneurial spirit and an unending focus on the needs of the users of our products – resulting in our drive to lead the industry with innovation, product quality and customer service Our focus requires that we make decisions based on the long-term success of our Company: • While we strive to lead the industry in market share, we will not strive for market share at the expense of quality or without regard to bottom-line impact • Growth is important, but this is a business of relationships, and we realize that the key to long-term sustainable sales growth rests in the strength of our relationships with consumers, dealers and suppliers • Our relationship with shareholders is important ― profits are a key driver to our long -term success • The path to long-term success is seldom straight, so our leaders manage in a way that moves us closer to our goals, even though it might impact our results in the short term 8

INVESTING IN THE FUTURE - CAPACITY Capital Acquisitions Business Acquisitions $50,000 $250,000 Thousands Thousands $43,055 $40,000 $194,486 $200,000 $33,698 $30,438 $30,000 $150,000 $24,190 $99,562 $20,000 $100,000 $86,092 $12,767 $10,442 $10,000 $50,000 $19,756 $10,718 $170 $0 $0 FY10 FY11 FY12 FY13 FY14 FY15 FY10 FY11 FY12 FY13 FY14 FY15 10

  11. CORPORATE INTEGRITY No golden parachutes No ‘pro forma’ earnings. We report net income, not adjusted earnings to cover up performance Consistent focus on shareholder value Simple compensation philosophy: • Mainly cash compensation based on pre-tax income – a true pay- for-performance philosophy • Restricted stock units also awarded based on performance to provide broader, long-term focus on overall Company results 11

  12. RV INDUSTRY CONDITIONS REMAIN POSITIVE Although consumer confidence has remained range bound since the beginning of 2016, it remains at the highest levels since the recession. Final results rose to 94.7 in May from 89.0 in April. This compares with 90.7 a year ago.* Consumers are more optimistic about their financial prospects and anticipate somewhat lower inflation rates in the future. The main areas of uncertainty for consumers surround whether the Federal Reserve will increase interest rates over the next few months and the potential impact of the Presidential election on the overall economy.* Recreation Vehicle Industry Association (RVIA) forecast in May 2016 that calendar 2016 wholesale shipments for all RV categories should increase to 396,400 units, or an increase of 5.9% over calendar year 2015.** Pricing and promotional environment remains competitive, but generally improved over prior year. Domestic travel offers fewer risks than international travel at a more compelling value. Low fuel prices make RV travel increasingly attractive for consumers. *Source: University of Michigan final Consumer Sentiment Index for May 2016 12 **Source: RVIA Roadsigns Summer 2016
