SECOND QUARTER RESULTS
The three-month period ended July 31, 2026 marked the second consecutive quarter of Fiscal 2027 with double-digit revenue growth compared to the
same period last year. The increase in revenues was primarily driven by higher ORV shipments to support retail demand and a favourable SSV mix resulting from the introduction of new models. Revenue growth was partially offset by lower PWC
deliveries, mostly reflecting units that were shipped earlier in the first quarter. Gross profit and gross profit margin decreased compared to last year, primarily due to the impacts of Section 232 tariffs on Steel, Aluminum and Copper imports
into the United States, as well as the effect of a supplier financial restructuring. The supplier financial restructuring represented an unfavourable impact of $74.8 million or 330 bps on gross profit and gross profit margin respectively. These
impacts were partially offset by the positive effects of higher volumes and lower sales programs mainly in ORV.
The Company’s North American
retail sales were up 1% for the three-month period ended July 31, 2026 compared to the same period last year. The increase in retail sales was driven by positive industry trends in SSV and market share gains in ORV, which were partially offset
by lower retail sales in Seasonal Products.
Revenues
Revenues increased by $348.6 million, or 18.5%, to $2,236.8 million for the three-month period ended July 31, 2026, compared to
$1,888.2 million for the corresponding period ended July 31, 2025. The increase in revenues was primarily due to a higher volume of units sold in ORV to support retail demand and a favourable SSV product mix resulting from the introduction
of new models. The increase was partially offset by a lower volume of units sold in PWC, mostly reflecting units that were shipped earlier in the first quarter. The increase includes a favourable foreign exchange rate variation of $46 million.
●
Year-Round Products (66% of
Q2-FY27
revenues):
Revenues from Year-Round
Products increased by $371.3 million, or 33.3%, to $1,485.1 million for the three-month period ended July 31, 2026, compared to $1,113.8 million for the corresponding period ended July 31, 2025. The increase in revenues from
Year-Round Products was primarily attributable to a higher volume of units sold in ORV to support retail demand and a favourable SSV product mix resulting from the introduction of new models. The increase was also attributable to lower sales
programs across all product lines. The increase includes a favourable foreign exchange rate variation of $37 million.
●
Seasonal Products (19% of
Q2-FY27
revenues):
Revenues from Seasonal
Products decreased by $42.0 million, or 8.9%, to $427.7 million for the three-month period ended July 31, 2026, compared to $469.7 million for the corresponding period ended July 31, 2025. The decrease in revenues from
Seasonal Products was primarily attributable to a lower volume of units sold in PWC, mostly reflecting units that were shipped earlier in the first quarter. The decrease was partially offset by lower sales programs in Snowmobile. The decrease
includes a favourable foreign exchange rate variation of $5 million.
●
PA&A, OEM Engines and Others (15% of
Q2-FY27
revenues):
Revenues from
PA&A, OEM Engines and Others increased by $19.3 million, or 6.3%, to $324.0 million for the three-month period ended July 31, 2026, compared to $304.7 million for the corresponding period ended July 31, 2025. The
increase in revenues from PA&A, OEM Engines and Others was primarily attributable to a higher volume of PA&A sold, coupled with favourable pricing. The increase was partially offset by unfavourable product mix in OEM Engines. The increase
includes a favourable foreign exchange rate variation of $4 million.
North American Retail Sales
The Company’s North American retail sales increased by 1% for the three-month period ended July 31, 2026 compared to the same period last
year. The increase in retail sales was driven by positive industry trends in SSV and market share gains in ORV, which were partially offset by lower retail sales in Seasonal Products.
●
North American Year-Round Products retail sales increased on a percentage basis in the
low-single
digits compared to the three-month period ended July 31, 2025. The Year-Round Products industry sales increased in the
low-single
digits over the same
period.
●
North American Seasonal Products retail sales decreased on a percentage basis in the
low-single
digits compared to the three-month period ended July 31, 2025. The Seasonal Products industry sales increased on a percentage basis in the
low-single
digits over the same period.
Gross profit
Gross profit decreased by $135.2 million, or 34.0%, to $262.5 million for the three-month period ended July 31, 2026, compared to
$397.7 million for the three-month period ended July 31, 2025. Gross profit margin percentage decreased by 940 basis points to 11.7% for the three-month period ended July 31, 2026, compared to 21.1% for the three-month period ended
July 31, 2025. Gross profit and gross profit margin decreased compared to last year, primarily due to the impacts of Section 232 tariffs on Steel, Aluminum and Copper imports into the United States, as well as the effect of a supplier
financial restructuring. These impacts were partially offset by the positive effects of higher volumes and lower sales programs mainly in ORV. The decrease in gross profit includes a favourable foreign exchange rate variation of $17 million.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses
increased by $5.2 million, or 1.7%, to $312.5 million for the three-month period ended July 31, 2026, compared to $307.3 million for the three-month period ended July 31, 2025. The increase in operating expenses was mainly
attributable to higher investments in R&D to support product development, partially offset by lower G&A expenses due to a special long-term incentive program and the costs associated with executive management transition during the
three-month period ended July 31, 2025. The increase in operating expenses includes an unfavourable foreign exchange rate variation of $1 million.
Normalized EBITDA
[1]
Normalized EBITDA
[1]
decreased by $74.4 million, or 34.9%, to $138.8 million for the
three-month period ended July 31, 2026, compared to $213.2 million for the three-month period ended July 31, 2025. The decrease in Normalized EBITDA

$57.1 million for the three-month period ended July 31, 2025. The decrease in net income was primarily due to lower gross profit, an unfavourable foreign exchange rate variation on the U.S. denominated long-term debt and increased
operating expenses.

[1]
Normalized net income
[1]
decreased by $79.9 million, or 119.4%, to $(13.0) million for the

2026, compared to a net loss of $(33.6) million for the three-month period ended July 31, 2025. The increase in net income from discontinued operations was primarily due to the closing of the sales of Alumacraft’s and Manitou’s

“Non-IFRS
Measures” section of this
press release.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Consolidated net cash flows generated from operating activities totaled $686.8 million for the
six-month
period ended July 31, 2026, compared to $373.1 million generated for the
six-month
period ended July 31, 2025. The increase was mainly due to favourable changes in working capital and lower
income taxes paid, partially offset by lower profitability. The favourable changes in working capital were driven by higher provisions and a decrease in trade receivables, partially offset by an increase in inventories.
The Company invested $126.2 million of its liquidity in capital expenditures for the introduction of new products and modernization of the
Company’s software infrastructure to support future growth.
During the
six-month
period ended
July 31, 2026, the Company also returned $231.7 million to its shareholders through quarterly dividend payouts and share repurchase programs.

Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.25 per share for holders of its multiple voting shares and subordinate voting shares. The dividend will be paid on October 13, 2026 to shareholders of record at the close of

volatility; main currencies in which the Company operates will remain at near current levels; there will be no significant changes in tax laws or treaties applicable to the Company; the supply base will remain able to support product development and
planned production rates on commercially acceptable terms in a timely manner; the absence of unusually adverse weather conditions, especially in peak seasons. BRP cautions that its assumptions may not materialize, and that the currently challenging
macroeconomic and geopolitical environments in which it evolves, including specifically the uncertainty around the potential evolution of tariffs, duties and other trade restrictions (and any retaliatory measures), as well as the ongoing instability
in the Middle East and its potential negative impact on the global economy, may render such assumptions, although believed reasonable at the time they were made, subject to greater uncertainty. These assumptions reflect certain U.S. tariffs
currently in effect; however, they do not fully incorporate the potential expansion of U.S. tariffs, including tariffs on all imports from Canada and Mexico, and potential retaliatory tariffs. Given the fast-evolving situation and the high degree of
uncertainty around the duration of a potential trade war, it is difficult to predict how the effects would
flow through the economy. New and existing tariffs could significantly affect the outlooks for economic growth, consumer spending, inflation and the Canadian dollar.
NON-IFRS
MEASURES
This press release makes reference to certain
non-IFRS
measures. These measures are not recognized measures
under IFRS, do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these measures are provided as additional information to complement those IFRS
measures by providing further understanding of the Company’s results of operations from management’s perspective. Accordingly, they should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s financial
information reported under IFRS. The Company uses
non-IFRS
measures including the following:
Non-IFRS
measures
Definition
Reason for use
Normalized EBITDA
Net income before financing costs, financing income, income tax expense (recovery), depreciation expense and normalized
elements.
Assist investors in determining the financial performance of the Company’s operating activities on a
consistent basis by excluding certain
non-cash
elements such as depreciation expense, impairment charge, foreign exchange gain or loss on the Company’s long-term debt denominated in U.S. dollars and
foreign exchange gain or loss on certain of the Company’s lease liabilities. Other elements, such as restructuring and wind-down costs,
non-recurring
gain or loss and acquisition-related costs, may be
excluded from net income in the determination of Normalized EBITDA as they are considered not being reflective of the operational performance of the Company.
Normalized net income
Net income before normalized elements adjusted to reflect the tax effect on these elements
In addition to the financial performance of operating activities, this measure considers the impact of
investing activities, financing activities and income taxes on the Company’s financial results.
Normalized income tax expense
Income tax expense adjusted to reflect the tax effect on normalized elements and to normalize specific tax elements
Assist investors in determining the tax expense relating to the normalized items explained above, as they are
considered not being reflective of the operational performance of the Company.
Normalized effective tax rate
Based on Normalized net income before Normalized income tax expense
Assist investors in determining the effective tax rate including the normalized items explained above, as they
are considered not being reflective of the operational performance of the Company.
Normalized earnings per share – basic and
diluted
Calculated by dividing the Normalized net income by the weighted average number of shares – basic and diluted
Assist investors in determining the normalized financial performance of the Company’s activities on a
per share basis.
Free cash flow
Cash flows from operating activities less additions to PP&E and intangible assets
Assist investors in assessing the Company’s liquidity generation abilities that could be available for
shareholders, debt repayment and business combination, after capital expenditure
The Company believes
non-IFRS
measures are important supplemental measures of
financial performance because they eliminate items that have less bearing on the Company’s financial performance and thus highlight trends in its core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS measures. The
Company also believes that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use
non-IFRS
measures in the evaluation of companies, many of which present similar metrics when reporting
their results. Management also uses
non-IFRS
measures in order to facilitate financial performance comparisons from period to period, prepare annual operating budgets, assess the Company’s ability to
meet its future debt service, capital expenditure and working capital requirements and also as a component in the determination of the short-term incentive compensation for the Company’s employees. Because other companies may calculate these
non-IFRS
measures differently than the Company does, these metrics are not comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
The Company refers the reader to the tables below for the reconciliations of the
non-IFRS
measures presented by
the Company to the most directly comparable IFRS measure.

The weighted average number of diluted shares outstanding used in calculating Normalized diluted EPS
[1]
for the
six-month
period ended July 31, 2026 was 73,529,444. The difference in the weighted average number of diluted shares outstanding used in
calculating diluted EPS is explained by a reported net loss under IFRS Measures for the same period.
