The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of
operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere
in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with our audited condensed
consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2021, as filed with the
SEC on February 25, 2021, and our other reports and registration statements that
we file with the SEC from time to time. In addition to historical condensed
consolidated financial information, the following discussion contains
forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates, and beliefs. Our
actual results could differ materially from those discussed below. Factors that
could cause or contribute to these differences include those discussed below and
elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, particularly in the "Risk
Factors" section included in Part II, Item 1A.
Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms "FOX," the "Company," "we,"
"us," and "our" in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q refer to Fox Factory
Holding Corp. and its operating subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements, which
are subject to the "safe harbor" created by Section 27A of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). We may make
forward-looking statements in our SEC filings, press releases, news articles,
earnings presentations and when we are speaking on behalf of the Company.
Forward-looking statements generally relate to future events or our future
financial or operating performance that involve substantial risks and
uncertainties. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements
because they contain words such as "may," "might," "will," "would," "should,"
"expect," "plan," "anticipate," "could," "intend," "target," "project,"
"contemplate," "believe," "estimate," "predict," "likely," "potential" or
"continue" or the negative of these words or other similar terms or expressions
that concern our expectations, strategy, plans or intentions. Forward-looking
statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are subject to
numerous risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to risks related to:
•the spread of highly infectious or contagious disease, such as COVID-19, could
cause severe disruptions in the U.S. and global economy, which could in turn
disrupt the business activities and operations of our customers, as well as our
businesses and operations;
•our ability to maintain our suppliers for materials, product parts and vehicle
chassis without significant supply chain disruptions;
•our ability to develop new and innovative products in our current end-markets;
•our ability to leverage our technologies and brand to expand into new
categories and end-markets;
•our ability to increase our aftermarket penetration;
•our ability to accelerate international growth;
•our exposure to exchange rate fluctuations;
•the loss of key customers;
•our ability to improve operating and supply chain efficiencies;
•our ability to enforce our intellectual property rights;
•our future financial performance, including our sales, cost of sales, gross
profit or gross margins, operating expenses, ability to generate positive cash
flow and ability to maintain our profitability;
•our ability to maintain our premium brand image and high-performance products;
•our ability to maintain relationships with the professional athletes and race
teams we sponsor;
•our ability to selectively add additional dealers and distributors in certain
geographic markets;
•the growth of the markets in which we compete, our expectations regarding
consumer preferences and our ability to respond to changes in consumer
preferences;
•changes in demand for performance-defining products;
•the loss of key personnel, management and skilled engineers;
•our ability to successfully identify, evaluate and manage potential or
completed acquisitions and to benefit from such acquisitions;

                                       27

•the outcome of pending litigation;
•future disruptions in the operations of our manufacturing facilities;
•our ability to adapt our business model to mitigate the impact of certain
changes in tax laws;
•changes in the relative proportion of profit earned in the numerous
jurisdictions in which we do business and in tax legislation, case law and other
authoritative guidance in those jurisdictions;
•product recalls and product liability claims; and
•future economic or market conditions.
You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future
events. We have based the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q primarily on our current expectations and projections about
future events and trends that we believe may affect our business, financial
condition, results of operations, and prospects and the outcomes of any of the
events described in any forward-looking statements are subject to risks,
uncertainties, and other factors. In addition to the risks, uncertainties and
other factors discussed above and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q, the risks, uncertainties and other factors expressed or implied in Part I,
Item 1A. "Risk Factors" of our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with
the SEC on February 25, 2021, could cause or contribute to actual results
differing materially from those set forth in any forward-looking statement.
Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and challenging environment. New
risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us
to predict all risks and uncertainties that could have an impact on the
forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We
cannot assure you that the results, events, and circumstances reflected in the
forward-looking statements will be achieved or occur. Actual results, events, or
circumstances could differ materially from those contemplated by, set forth in,
or underlying any forward-looking statements. For all of these forward-looking
statements, we claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking
statements in Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange
Act.
The forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q relate
only to events as of the date on which the statements are made. We undertake no
obligation to update any forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or to reflect new information or the occurrence of
unanticipated events, except as required by law. We may not actually achieve the
plans, intentions, or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements
and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Our
forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future
acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, joint ventures or investments we may make.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
As a result of the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the "TCJA" or
"Tax Act") in December 2017, we believe that it is more likely than not that a
portion of our foreign tax credits will not be realizable before their
expiration and therefore have provided a partial valuation allowance of $7.2
million against that tax asset. We reassess our projections and assumptions
regarding the realization of our foreign tax credits periodically as changes in
our business and tax regulations occur. To the extent such a valuation allowance
is established or reduced in a period, we reflect the change with a
corresponding increase or decrease of our income tax provision in our condensed
consolidated financial statements. In the first and second quarters of 2021, the
Company increased the forecast for additional revenue from Taiwan. The
additional revenue is expected to generate foreign tax credits, that the Company
believes will result in tax credits carried over from prior periods not to be
realizable before their expiration. Therefore, the Company added $3.0 million
and $0.6 million to the valuation allowance in the first and second quarters of
2021, respectively. There was no change to the valuation allowance in the third
quarter of 2021.
There have been no other changes to our significant accounting policies
described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1,
2021, as filed with the SEC on February 25, 2021, that have had a material
impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes.

Total sales for the three months ended October 1, 2021 increased approximately
$86.7 million, or 33.3%, compared to the three months ended October 2, 2020.
Powered Vehicle product sales increased by $35.0 million, or 22.8%, due to
strong performance in our upfitting product lines and increased demand in both
the original equipment manufacturer ("OEM") and aftermarket channels. Specialty
Sports product sales increased by $51.7 million, or 48.1%, due to continued
strong demand in the OEM channel.

Cost of sales for the three months ended October 1, 2021 increased approximately
$60.2 million, or 35.2%, compared to the three months ended October 2, 2020. The
increase in cost of sales was primarily due to the 33.3% increase in sales in
the same period, as well as certain business factors affecting gross margin,
which are discussed below.
For the three months ended October 1, 2021, our gross margin decreased 90 basis
points to 33.4% compared to 34.3% for the three months ended October 2, 2020.
The decrease in gross margin was primarily driven by supply chain related costs,
including increased raw materials prices and higher freight costs.

increased to 17.5% of total sales for the three months ended October 1, 2021
compared to 16.8% of total sales in the three months ended October 2, 2020. The
increase in operating expenses is primarily due to higher employee related
costs, higher commission costs, and higher investments to right-size our
administrative support functions.

The effective tax rate was 18.2% and 12.5% for the three month periods ended
October 1, 2021 and October 2, 2020, respectively.
For the three months ended October 1, 2021, the difference between the Company's
effective tax rate of 18.2% and the 21% federal statutory rate resulted
primarily from a lower tax rate on foreign-derived intangible income and a
windfall from stock-based compensation. These benefits were partially offset by
other non-deductible expenses and state taxes.
For the three months ended October 2, 2020, the difference between our effective
tax rate of 12.5% and the 21% federal statutory rate resulted primarily from
lower foreign tax rates, a lower tax rate on foreign-derived intangible income,
research and development credits, realization of foreign tax credits, and excess
benefits related to stock-based compensation. These benefits were partially
offset by state taxes, global low-tax intangible income and non-deductible
expenses.

Total sales for the nine months ended October 1, 2021 increased approximately
$328.6 million, or 52.3%, compared to the nine months ended October 2, 2020.
Powered Vehicle product sales increased by $168.1 million, or 45.2%, due to
increased demand primarily in the aftermarket channel, including strong
performance from our upfitting product lines, and the inclusion of a full nine
months of revenues from our SCA subsidiary. Additionally, our prior year results
were impacted by production shutdowns at a majority of our OEM partners due to
the COVID-19 pandemic. Specialty Sports product sales increased by $160.5
million, or 62.7%, drive by increased demand primarily in the OEM channel.

Cost of sales for the nine months ended October 1, 2021 increased approximately
$209.6 million, or 49.7%, compared to the nine months ended October 2, 2020. The
increase in cost of sales was primarily due to the 52.3% increase in sales in
the same period, as well as certain business factors affecting gross margin,
which are discussed below.
For the nine months ended October 1, 2021, our gross margin increased 120 basis
points to 34.0% compared to 32.8% for the nine months ended October 2, 2020. The
increase in gross margin was primarily due to higher volume sales in our
Specialty Sports Group and the strong performance of our upfitting product
lines, as well as favorable product and channel mix. Additionally, our gross
margin for the first nine months of the prior fiscal year period was negatively
impacted by incremental costs related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Total operating expenses for the nine months ended October 1, 2021 were $171.2
million compared to $129.6 million for the nine months ended October 2, 2020.
When expressed as a percentage of total sales, total operating expenses
decreased to 17.9% of total sales for the nine months ended October 1, 2021
compared to 20.6% of total sales in the nine months ended October 2, 2020. The
increase in operating expenses is primarily due to higher employee related
costs, increases in various other costs as we continue to expand our
administrative support functions, and the impact of a full nine months of SCA
operating costs. These increases were partially offset by lower
acquisition-related costs and lower patent litigation-related expenses.
Within operating expenses, our sales and marketing expenses increased
approximately $13.9 million primarily due to commissions of $8.7 million,
employee related expenses of $3.5 million, and various other expenses. Research
and development costs increased approximately $8.6 million primarily due to
personnel investments to support future growth and product innovation. General
and administrative expenses increased by approximately $16.8 million due to
higher employee related costs of $15.5 million, as well as various other
investments of $9.8 million as we continue to right-size our administrative
support functions. These increases were partially offset by lower
acquisition-related costs of $9.4 million and lower litigation expenses of $0.9
million.
Amortization of purchased intangibles for the nine months ended October 1, 2021
increased by approximately $2.3 million as compared to the nine months ended
October 2, 2020. The increase is primarily due to the amortization of intangible
assets obtained through our acquisitions of SCA and Outside Van.

allowance for foreign tax credits and state taxes.
For the nine months ended October 2, 2020, the difference between our effective
tax rate of 13.7% and the 21% federal statutory rate resulted primarily from a

earnings, and excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation. These
benefits were partially offset by state taxes, global low-tax intangible income

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary cash needs are to support working capital, capital expenditures,
acquisitions, and debt repayments. Historically, we have generally financed our
liquidity needs with operating cash flows, borrowings under our Credit Facility
and the issuance of common stock. These sources of liquidity may be impacted by
various factors, including demand for our products, impacts of the COVID-19
pandemic, investments made by us in acquired businesses, our plant and equipment
and other capital expenditures, and expenditures on general infrastructure and
information technology. A summary of our operating, investing and financing
activities is shown in the following table:

Operating activities
Cash provided by operating activities consists of net income, adjusted for
certain non-cash items, primarily depreciation and amortization, stock-based
compensation, changes in deferred income taxes and uncertain tax positions,
amortization of loan fees and net cash invested in working capital.
In the nine months ended October 1, 2021, net cash provided by operating
activities was $149.3 million and consisted of net income of $126.1 million,
plus non-cash items totaling $42.2 million, offset by changes in operating
assets and liabilities totaling $19.0 million. Non-cash items and other
adjustments consisted of depreciation and amortization of $32.3 million,
stock-based compensation of $9.9 million, and amortization of loan fees of $1.2
million, offset by a $1.2 million change in deferred taxes and uncertain tax
positions.
Our investment in operating assets and liabilities is a result of increased
inventory of $116.8 million, and accounts receivable of $37.9 million, partially
offset by increases in accounts payable of $66.1 million, accrued expenses of
$25.9 million, and income taxes of $8.3 million and a decrease in prepaids and
other assets of $35.4 million. The changes in inventory and accounts payable are
primarily due to additional raw materials purchases to mitigate risks associated
with supply chain uncertainty. The change in accounts receivable reflects
business growth. The changes in accrued expenses and income taxes reflect higher
compensation related accruals, warranty reserves, sales rebates and income taxes
payable due to both business growth, as well as the timing of such payments. The
change in prepaids and other assets are primarily due to a decrease in deposits
on chassis.
In the nine months ended October 2, 2020, net cash provided by operating
activities was $99.8 million and consisted of net income of $60.0 million, plus
non-cash items totaling $20.4 million and less changes in operating assets and
liabilities totaling $19.5 million. Non-cash items and other adjustments
consisted of depreciation and amortization of $24.8 million, stock-based
compensation of $6.4 million, and amortization of loan fees of $1.1 million,
offset by a $11.9 million change in deferred taxes and uncertain tax positions.
Our investment in operating assets and liabilities is a result of increased
prepaids and other current assets of $14.7 million, accounts receivable of $12.6
million, and inventory of $0.6 million, offset by increases in accounts payable
of $36.7 million, accrued expenses of $7.5 million, and income taxes of $3.2
million. The change in prepaids and other current assets is primarily due to
deposits on chassis and acquisition-related compensation payments held in
escrow, both related to our SCA subsidiary acquisition in March 2020. The
changes in inventory, accounts receivable, and accounts payable reflect
seasonality as well as timing of vendor payments. The changes in accrued
expenses and income taxes are primarily attributable to the timing of rebate
payments and the timing of tax payments, respectively.
Investing activities
Cash used in investing activities primarily relates to strategic acquisitions of
businesses and other assets and investments in our manufacturing and general
infrastructure through the procurement of property and equipment.
In the nine months ended October 1, 2021 and October 2, 2020, net cash used in

Financing activities
Cash used in or provided by financing activities primarily relates to various
forms of debt and equity instruments used to finance our business.
In the nine months ended October 1, 2021, net cash used in financing activities
was $20.3 million, which consisted of payments of $6.6 million to repurchase
shares of our common stock, net of proceeds from the exercise of stock options,
payments on our term debt of $10.0 million, and $3.7 million in installment
payments related to the purchase of the Tuscany non-controlling interest. Refer
to   Note 9 - Commitments and Contingencies   for additional information on our
purchase of the Tuscany non-controlling interest.
In the nine months ended October 2, 2020, net cash provided by financing
activities was $510.0 million, which consisted of $392.4 million in proceeds,
net of issuance costs, from our Credit Facility, which was amended and restated
in connection with our acquisition of SCA, partially offset by net payments of
$68.0 million on our line of credit and payments on our term debt of $5.0
million. In addition, we received $198.2 million from our June 2020 issuance of
common stock. These inflows were partially offset by $4.6 million to repurchase
shares of our common stock as part of our stock-based compensation program and
$3.0 million in installment payments related to the purchase of the Tuscany
non-controlling interest.
Credit Facility
In June 2019, the Company entered into a credit facility with Bank of America
and other named lenders, which was amended and restated on March 11, 2020, and
further amended on June 19, 2020 and June 11, 2021 (as amended to date, the
"Credit Facility"). The Credit Facility, which matures on March 11, 2025,
provides a senior secured revolving line of credit with a borrowing capacity of
$250.0 million and a term loan of $400.0 million. The term loan is subject to
quarterly amortization payments.
The Company paid $7.6 million in debt issuance costs, of which $6.5 million were
allocated to the term debt and $1.2 million were allocated to the line of
credit. Additionally, the Company had $0.4 million of remaining unamortized debt
issuance costs. The Company expensed $0.3 million of the remaining unamortized
debt issuance costs, which are included in interest and other expense, net on
the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the nine months ended
October 2, 2020. The remaining $0.2 million were allocated to the line of
credit. All loan fees allocated to the term debt will be amortized using the
interest method, and all loan fees allocated to the line of credit will be
amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the Credit Facility.
The Credit Facility provides for interest at a rate either based on the London
Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"), plus a margin ranging from 1.00% to 2.25%,
with a floor rate of 0.00% or based on the base rate offered by Bank of America
plus a margin ranging from 0.00% to 1.25%. At October 1, 2021, the one-month
LIBOR and prime rates were 0.08% and 3.25%, respectively. At October 1, 2021,
our weighted-average interest rate on outstanding borrowing was 1.30%. The
Credit Facility is secured by substantially all of the Company's assets,
restricts the Company's ability to make certain payments and engage in certain
transactions, and requires that the Company satisfy customary financial ratios.
The Company was in compliance with the covenants as of October 1, 2021.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no material off-balance sheet arrangements.
Inflation
Historically, inflation has not had a material effect on our results of
operations. However, we have recently experienced a rise in raw material costs,
supply constraints, labor availability issues and logistical cost increases and
our expectation is that these impacts will continue into the fourth quarter of
2021. While we are currently taking actions to mitigate these impacts, should
these actions be unsuccessful or should such costs exceed what we can
effectively mitigate, our business, financial condition and results of
operations could be adversely impacted.
