Camping World Holdings, Inc.

Current report

Our business model is impacted by general economic conditions in our markets, including inflation and interest rates, as well as the health of the RV industry, geopolitical conflicts, and ongoing economic and financial uncertainties could cause a decline in consumer spending that could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Current report

As a business that relies on consumer discretionary spending, we have in the past and may in the future be adversely affected if our customers reduce, delay or forego their purchases of our services, protection plans and products as a result of:

Current report

We also rely on our store locations to attract and retain customers and to build our customer database. If we close store locations, are unable to open new store locations, including greenfield locations and acquisitions, on the timelines we anticipate or at all due to general economic conditions or otherwise, or experience declines in customer transactions in our existing store locations due to general economic conditions or otherwise, our ability to maintain and grow our customer database and our Active Customers will be limited, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Current report

In addition, political conditions, including new and changing laws or tariffs, regulations, executive orders and enforcement priorities, may create uncertainty about how such laws and regulations will be interpreted and applied and, consequently, may create market uncertainty. This may adversely impact customer demand, increase our costs and adversely impact our business.

Current report

Decreases in Active Customers, average spend per customer, or retention and renewal rates for our Good Sam services and plans has, at times, negatively affected and could in the future negatively affect our financial performance, and a prolonged period of depressed consumer spending could have a material adverse effect on our business. For instance, our Active Customers declined in 2025. In prior years and to some extent in 2025, promotional activities and decreased demand for consumer products affected our profitability and margins, and this negative impact could return or worsen in future periods. In addition, adverse economic conditions may result in an increase in our operating expenses due to, among other things, higher costs of labor, energy, equipment and facilities, as well as higher tariffs. Due to fluctuations in the U.S. economy, our sales, operating and financial results for a particular period are difficult to predict, making it difficult to forecast results for future periods. Additionally, we are subject to economic fluctuations in local markets that may not reflect the economic conditions of the U.S. economy. Any of the foregoing factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Current report

In addition, the success of our recurring Good Sam services and plans, as well as our RV and outdoor retail business, depends, in part, on our customers’ use of certain RV websites and/or the purchase of services, protection plans, products and resources through participating merchants, as well as the health of the RV industry generally.

Current report

In addition, during recent periods we have faced, and may continue to face, increased competition from other businesses with similar product and service offerings. For example, our competitors have listed RVs at or below cost. As a result, we responded and may need to further respond by establishing pricing, marketing and other programs or by seeking out additional strategic alliances or acquisitions that may be less favorable to us than we could otherwise establish or obtain in more favorable economic environments. Such programs have adversely impacted our gross margin, operating margin and selling, general and administrative expenses. In addition, declines in the national economy could cause partners and/or advertising customers who participate in our programs to go out of business. Should the number of partners and/or advertising customers entering bankruptcy rise, it is likely that the number of uncollectible accounts would also rise. These factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Current report

In February 2026, the United States and Israel launched coordinated military strikes against Iran, which retaliated with missile attacks across the region. Although we do not have material operations in the Middle East, the ongoing conflict and any further escalation, has and could continue to lead to significant disruption of global energy supplies and increases in global energy prices, which could reduce consumer demand for RVs and apply downward pressure on average selling prices, particularly given the seasonal nature of our business and our reliance on discretionary consumer spending during peak spring and summer selling months. The conflict could also heighten inflationary pressures on our input costs and supply chain, adversely affect global supply chains, energy markets, commodity prices, currency exchange rates, interest rates, financial markets and overall macroeconomic conditions, increase our borrowing costs under our variable-rate credit facilities, reduce the availability or increase the cost of debt financing, and adversely impact consumer spending patterns in markets in which we operate. While the impacts of the conflict between the United States, Israel and Iran may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, we are unable to predict the extent or nature of these impacts at this time.

Current report

We have been named in litigation, which has resulted in substantial costs and may result in reputational harm and divert management’s attention and resources.

Current report

We face legal risks in our business, including claims from disputes with our employees and our former employees and claims associated with general commercial disputes, product liability and other matters. Risks associated with legal liability often are difficult to assess or quantify and their existence and magnitude can remain unknown for significant periods of time.

Current report

We have been named in the past, are currently named and may be named in the future as defendants of class action lawsuits, including wage and hour class action litigation. We have been and currently are subject to securities class action litigation and may be subject to similar or other litigation in the future. For information regarding these lawsuits, refer to Note 11, Commitments and Contingencies – Litigation of our consolidated financial statements included in Item 1, Part I of this Form 10-Q.

Current report

The results of any current or future legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty. Regardless of their subject matter or merits, such legal proceedings have resulted in and are likely to continue to result in significant cost to us, which may not be covered by insurance, may divert the attention of management or may otherwise have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Negative publicity or negative outcomes from litigation, whether or not resulting in a substantial cost, could materially damage our reputation, could limit our operations and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and the price of our Class A common stock. In addition, such legal proceedings may make it more difficult to finance our operations.
