FOX FACTORY HOLDING CORP

1. Description of the Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Fox Factory Holding Corp. (the “Company”) designs, engineers, manufactures and markets performance-defining products and systems for customers worldwide. Our premium brand, performance-defining products and systems are used primarily on bicycles (“bikes”), side-by-side vehicles (“side-by-sides”), on-road vehicles with and without off-road capabilities, off-road vehicles and trucks, all-terrain vehicles (“ATVs”), snowmobiles, and specialty vehicles and applications. In addition, we also offer premium baseball and softball gear and equipment. Some of our products are specifically designed and marketed to some of the leading cycling and powered vehicle original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”), while others are distributed to consumers through a global network of dealers and distributors and retailers.

Throughout this Annual Report on Form 10-K, unless stated otherwise or as the context otherwise requires, the “Company,” “FOX,” “Fox Factory,” “we,” “us,” “our,” and “ours” refer to Fox Factory Holding Corp. and its operating subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.

Basis of Presentation - The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States of America (“U.S.”) generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).

Fiscal Year Calendar- The Company operates using a 52-53-week fiscal year calendar ending on the Friday nearest to December 31. Therefore, the financial results of certain fiscal years and quarters, which will contain 53 and 14 weeks, respectively, will not be exactly comparable to the prior and subsequent fiscal years and quarters, which contain 52 and 13 weeks, respectively. For the fiscal years 2023, 2022 and 2021, the Company’s fiscal year ended on December 29, 2023, December 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 and each had 52 weeks.

Principles of Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates - The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements; therefore, actual results could differ from management’s estimates.

Foreign Currency Translation and Transaction - The functional currency of the Company’s non-U.S. entities is the local currency of the respective operations. The Company translates the financial statements of its non-U.S. entities into U.S. Dollars each reporting period for purposes of consolidation. Assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are translated at the period-end currency exchange rates while sales and expenses are translated at the average currency exchange rates in effect for the period. The effects of these translation adjustments are a component of other comprehensive income.

Foreign currency transaction losses of $1,465, $3,377, and $455 for the years ended December 29, 2023, December 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, are included as a component of other income or expense.

Cash and Cash Equivalents - Cash consists of cash maintained in checking or money market accounts. All highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity date of 90 days or less at the date of purchase are considered to be cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable - Accounts receivable are unsecured customer obligations which generally require payment within various terms from the invoice date. The receivables are stated at the invoice amount. Financing terms vary by customer. Invoices are considered past due when payment is not received within the terms stated within the contract. Payments of accounts receivable are applied to the specific invoices identified on the customer’s remittance advice or if unspecified, generally to the earliest unpaid invoices.

The carrying amount of accounts receivable is reduced by a valuation allowance that reflects management’s best estimate of amounts that may not be collected. All accounts or portions thereof deemed to be uncollectible or that may require an excessive collection cost are written off to the allowance for credit losses.

The Company records a provision for credit losses based on historical experience and a detailed assessment of the collectability of its accounts receivable. The provision is based on how long a receivable has been outstanding, taking into account the historical credit loss rate and adjusting for both current conditions and forecasts of economic conditions into that expected credit loss rate. If circumstances change, such as higher-than-expected defaults or an unexpected material adverse change in a major customer’s ability to meet its financial obligations, the Company’s estimate of the recoverability of the amounts due could be reduced by a material amount.

The following table presents the activity in the allowance for credit losses:

Concentration of Credit Risk - Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of cash and accounts receivable. As of December 29, 2023 the Company held $58,979 in cash at U.S. subsidiaries and $24,663 at subsidiaries outside the U.S. The account balances may significantly exceed the insurance coverage provided on such deposits. Generally, these deposits may be redeemed upon demand and are maintained with financial institutions with reputable credit and therefore bear minimal credit risk. The Company has not experienced any losses in its uninsured accounts.

The Company mitigates its credit risk with respect to accounts receivable by performing ongoing credit evaluations and monitoring of its customers’ accounts receivable balances. The following customers accounted for 10% or more of the Company’s accounts receivable balance:

No other customers were individually significant in any of these periods presented.

The Company depends on a limited number of vendors to supply component parts for its products. The Company purchased 29%,34%, and 32% of its product components for the years ended December 29, 2023, December 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, from ten vendors. As of December 29, 2023 and December 30, 2022, amounts due to these vendors represented 20% and 38% of accounts payable, respectively.

Inventories - Inventories are stated at the lower of actual cost (or standard cost which generally approximates actual costs on a first-in first-out basis) or net realizable value. Cost includes raw materials and inbound freight, as well as direct labor and manufacturing overhead for products we manufacture. Net realizable value is based on current replacement cost for raw materials and on a net realizable value for finished goods. Adjustments to reduce the cost of inventory to its net realizable value are made, if required, for estimated excess, obsolescence or impaired balances.

Property and Equipment - Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred, and improvements and betterments are capitalized. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation and amortization are removed from the balance sheet and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in operations in the period realized.

Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the lease, or the useful lives of the assets, whichever is shorter. The value assigned to land associated with buildings we own is not amortized. Depreciation and amortization periods for the Company’s property and equipment are as follows:

Internal-use Computer Software Costs- Costs incurred to purchase and develop computer software for internal use are capitalized during the application development and implementation stages. These software costs have been for enterprise-level business and finance software that is customized to meet the Company’s operational needs. Capitalized costs are included in property and equipment and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the software beginning when the software project is substantially complete and placed in service. The Company capitalized $5,254 in internal use computer software costs during the year ended December 29, 2023. Costs incurred during the preliminary project stage and costs for training, data conversion, and maintenance are expensed as incurred.

Impairment of Long-lived Assets - The Company periodically reviews property and equipment for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset is impaired or the estimated useful lives are no longer appropriate. If indicators of impairment exist and the undiscounted projected cash flows associated with such assets are less than the carrying amount of the assets, an impairment loss is recorded to write the assets down to their estimated fair values. Fair value is estimated based on discounted future cash flows. No impairment charges were recorded during the years ended December 29, 2023, December 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Business Combinations- The Company accounts for acquisitions of entities that include inputs and processes and have the ability to create outputs as business combinations. The Company allocates the purchase price of the acquisition to the tangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and identifiable intangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the purchase price over those fair values is recorded as goodwill. Acquisition-related expenses and restructuring costs are expensed as incurred. During the measurement period, the Company records adjustments to provisional amounts recorded for assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the corresponding offset to goodwill. After the measurement period, which could be up to one year after the transaction date, subsequent adjustments are recorded to the Company’s consolidated statements of income.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets - Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value of the net assets of businesses acquired. On an annual basis, the Company makes a qualitative assessment to determine if it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the Company determines that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, it will perform a quantitative analysis; otherwise, no further evaluation is necessary. For the quantitative impairment assessment, the Company compares the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value, including goodwill. The Company determines the fair value of the reporting unit based on a weighting of income and market approaches. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the net assets assigned to that unit, goodwill is not impaired and no further testing is performed. If the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, then the Company will recognize a loss equal to the excess, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. Impairments, if any, are charged directly to earnings. We completed our most recent annual impairment test in the third quarter of 2023 at which time we had a single reporting unit for purposes of assessing goodwill impairment. No impairment charges have been incurred to date.

Intangible assets including customer relationships, certain trademarks, and the Company’s core technology, are subject to amortization over their respective useful lives, and are classified in intangibles, net in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. These intangibles are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets may not be fully recoverable. If facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying value might not be recoverable, projected undiscounted net cash flows associated with the related asset or group of assets over their estimated remaining useful lives is compared against their respective carrying amounts. If an asset is found to be impaired, the impairment charge will be measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of an entity exceeds its fair value. Certain trademarks and brands are considered to be indefinite life intangibles, and are not amortized but are subject to testing for impairment annually. No impairments of intangible assets were identified in the years ended December 29, 2023, December 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Self-Insurance - The Company is self-insured for its U.S. employee health and welfare benefits. The Company’s liability for self-insurance is based on claims filed and an estimate of claims incurred but not yet reported. The Company considers a number of factors, including historical claims information, when determining the amount of the accrual. Costs related to the administration of the plan and related claims are expensed as incurred. The Company has third-party insurance coverage to limit exposure for individually significant claims. The estimates for unpaid claims incurred as of December 29, 2023 and December 30, 2022 are $2,203 and $1,988 respectively, and are recorded within accrued expenses on the consolidated balance sheets.

Revenue Recognition - Revenues are generated from the sale of performance-defining products and systems to customers worldwide. The Company’s performance-defining products and systems are solutions that improve performance of powered vehicles, bikes, and baseball and softball gear and equipment. Powered vehicles include side-by-sides, on-road vehicles with off-road capabilities, off-road vehicles and trucks, ATVs, snowmobiles, specialty vehicles and applications, motorcycles.

Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer. The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control of a product to a customer, generally at the time of shipment. Contracts are generally in the form of purchase orders and are governed by standard terms and conditions. For larger OEMs, the Company may also enter into master agreements. Sales tax and other similar taxes are excluded from revenues. Revenues generated from upfit packages generally do not include the vehicle chassis, as the Company is not the principal in this arrangement and the automotive dealer purchases the chassis directly from the OEM. The Company is required to place a deposit on Stellantis vehicle chassis, however that deposit is refunded when the chassis is sold through to the end customer. For other chassis, the Company entered into floorplan financing agreements, in which the Company pays interest expense based on the duration of time the chassis stay on the Company's premises. Revenues generated from custom upfit packages from our Outside Van subsidiary generally include the vehicle chassis, of which the Company has the risks and rewards of ownership and are recognized over-time as work is performed based on actual costs incurred.

We elected as a practical expedient to not capitalize the incremental costs to obtain contracts with customers since the amortization period would have been one year or less.

Provisions for discounts, rebates, sales incentives, returns, and other adjustments are generally provided for in the period the related sales are recorded, based on management’s assessment of historical trends and projection of future results.

Cost of Sales - Cost of sales primarily consists of materials and labor expense in the manufacturing of the Company’s products sold to customers. Cost of sales also includes provisions for excess and obsolete inventory, warranty costs, certain allocated costs for facilities, depreciation and other manufacturing overhead. Additionally, it includes stock-based compensation for personnel directly involved with manufacturing the Company’s product offerings.

Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs - The Company includes shipping and handling fees billed to customers in sales. Shipping costs associated with freight are capitalized as part of inventory and included in cost of sales as products are sold.

Sales and Marketing - Our sales and marketing expenses include costs related to our sales, customer service and marketing personnel, including their wages, employee benefits and related stock-based compensation, and occupancy related expenses. Other significant sales and marketing expenses include commissions paid to outside sales representatives, promotional materials and products, our sales office costs, race support and sponsorships of events and athletes, advertising and promotions related to trade shows, and travel and entertainment.

Research and Development - Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and personnel costs, including wages, employee benefits and related stock-based compensation for the Company’s engineering, research and development teams, occupancy related expenses, fees for third party consultants, service fees, and expenses for prototype tooling and materials, travel, and supplies. The Company expenses research and development costs as incurred.

General and Administrative - General and administrative expenses include costs related to executive, finance, information technology, human resources and administrative personnel, including wages, employee benefits and related stock-based compensation expenses. The Company records professional and contract service expenses, occupancy related expenses associated with corporate locations and equipment, and legal expenses in general and administrative expenses.

Stock-Based Compensation - The Company measures stock-based compensation for all stock-based awards, including stock options and RSUs, based on their estimated fair values on the date of the grant and recognizes the stock-based compensation cost for time-vested awards on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. For performance-based RSUs, the number of shares ultimately expected to vest is estimated at each reporting date based on management’s expectations regarding the relevant performance criteria. To the extent shares are expected to vest, the stock-based compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. The fair value of each stock option granted is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Company does not estimate forfeitures in recognizing stock-based compensation expense. The fair value of the RSUs is equal to the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the grant date of the award.

Income Taxes - Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method, under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Operating loss and tax credit carryforwards are measured by applying currently enacted tax laws. Valuation allowances are provided when necessary to reduce net deferred tax assets to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized.

The Company accounts for global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”) in the year the tax is incurred, rather than recognize deferred taxes for temporary basis differences expected to reverse as GILTI in future years. The net GILTI inclusion for the year ended December 29, 2023 was partially offset by foreign tax credits associated with the income.

The Company recognizes the tax effects of an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not to be sustained based solely on its technical merits as of the reporting date and then only in an amount more likely than not to be sustained upon review by the tax authorities. The Company considers many factors when evaluating and estimating its tax positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustments, and which may not accurately anticipate actual outcomes.

Advertising - Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and recorded as sales and marketing expenses on our Consolidated Statements of Income. Costs incurred for advertising totaled $6,717, $4,813, and $2,741 for the years ended December 29, 2023, December 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Warranties - The Company offers limited warranties on its products generally forone tothree years. The Company recognizes estimated costs related to warranty activities as a component of cost of sales upon product shipment. The estimates are based upon historical product failure rates and historical costs incurred in correcting product failures. The recorded amount is adjusted from time to time for specifically identified warranty exposures. Actual warranty expenses are charged against the Company’s estimated warranty liability when incurred. Factors that affect the Company’s liability include the number of units, historical and anticipated rates of warranty claims, and the cost per claim.

Segments - The Company determined that it has a single operating and reportable segment: manufacturing, sale and service of performance-defining products. The Company considers operating segments to be components of the Company in which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the Company’s chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The chief operating decision maker for the Company is the Chief Executive Officer. The Chief Executive Officer reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance.

Reclassifications- We reclassified certain prior period amounts within our consolidated statements of other comprehensive income, consolidated statements of cash flows, and Note 2 - Revenues for the years ended December 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 to conform to our current year presentation. The reclassifications did not have any impact on net income or other major financial statement line items.

Fair Value Measurements and Financial Instruments - The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Codification 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, that requires the valuation of assets and liabilities required or permitted to be either recorded or disclosed at fair value based on hierarchy of available inputs as follows:

Level 2: Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash, receivables, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature. As of December 29, 2023, amounts owed under the Company’s 2022 Credit Facility - Incremental Term A Loan approximated fair value because it had a variable interest rate that reflected market changes in interest rates and changes in the Company’s net leverage ratio.

Certain Significant Risks and Uncertainties - The Company is subject to those risks common in manufacturing-driven markets, including, but not limited to, competitive forces, dependence on key personnel, customer demand for its products, disruptions in the operations of its or its customers’ facilities, or along its global supply chain, the successful protection of its proprietary technologies, compliance with government regulations, and the possibility of not being able to obtain additional financing when needed.

International geopolitical conflicts, including continuing tensions between Taiwan and China, the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and the Israel-Palestine conflict on the global economy, energy supplies and raw materials may prove to negatively impact the Company’s business and operations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements- In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers. Under ASU 2021-08, an acquirer must recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Topic 606. The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this guidance in the first quarter of 2022. This adoption did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

In September 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-04, Liabilities - Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations. Under ASU 2022-04, the buyer in a supplier finance program is required to disclose sufficient information to allow a user of the financial statements to understand the program's nature, activity during the period, changes from period to period, and potential magnitude. The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. These amendments will be applied retrospectively to each period in which a balance sheet is presented, except for the disclosure of rollforward information, which will be applied prospectively. The Company adopted the interim disclosure requirements, as applicable, during the first quarter of 2023 and adopted the annual disclosure requirements, except for the annual rollforward, in this 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Company expects to adopt the annual rollforward requirement in our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Refer to the “Bailment Pool Arrangements” section within Note 12 - Commitments and Contingencies for further details of this adoption.

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The amendments in ASU 2023-07 require disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss, an amount and description of its composition for other segment items to reconcile to segment profit or loss, and the title and position of the entity’s CODM. The amendments in this update also expand the interim segment disclosure requirements. These amendments do not change how a public entity identifies its operating segments, aggregates those operating segments, or applies the quantitative thresholds to determine its reportable segments. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted and the amendments in this update are required to be applied on a retrospective basis. The Company is currently reviewing the impact that the adoption of ASU 2023-07 may have on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvement to Income Tax Disclosures to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures through changes to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024 on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this accounting standard update on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

2. Revenues

In the second quarter of fiscal year 2023, the Company realigned its Powered Vehicles Group into the Powered Vehicles Group and the Aftermarket Applications Group to be more aligned with the Company’s end customers and drive additional focus on product development. The new Powered Vehicles Group is comprised of sales to original equipment off-road and power sports manufacturers and aftermarket businesses that sell shocks directly to dealers and distributors. The Aftermarket Applications Group is comprised of aftermarket businesses that offer custom vehicle shock, tuning, suspension, lift kit, upfitting, and wheel and tire solutions for automotive and power sports enthusiasts. All prior-period amounts have been recast to conform with the current period presentation. The following table summarizes total net sales by product category:

The following table summarizes total net sales by sales channel:

The following table summarizes total net sales generated by geographic location of the customer:

Remaining performance obligations represent the transaction price of contracts, generally considered to be the customer's purchase order, for which work has not been performed or has been partially performed. The Company elected to exclude remaining performance obligations with an original expected duration of one year or less. Revenue expected to be recognized from remaining performance obligations as of December 29, 2023 for contracts with a duration more than one year was approximately $1,534, all of which is expected to be recognized during fiscal years 2025 to 2027.

3. Inventory

Inventory consisted of the following:

4. Prepaids and Other Current Assets

Prepaids and other current assets consisted of the following:

6. Leases

The Company has operating lease agreements for administrative, research and development, manufacturing, and sales and marketing facilities. These leases have remaining lease terms ranging from underone year totwenty years, some of which include options to extend the lease term for up toten years, and some of which include options to terminate the leases withinone year. Certain leases are subject to annual escalations as specified in the lease agreements. The Company considered these options in determining the lease term used to establish its right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. These lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an interest rate, the Company used the incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The weighted-average remaining lease term for the Company’s operating leases was 9.26 years and the weighted-average incremental borrowing rate was 3.30% as of December 29, 2023.

Operating lease costs consisted of the following:

On March 3, 2023, the Company acquired all of the outstanding equity interest of Custom Wheel House. Custom Wheel House has building leases for its office facilities in California. The buildings are owned by the former owner of Custom Wheel House, who is now an employee of the Company. Rent expense under these leases was $600 for the year ended December 29, 2023.

10. Debt

Prior Credit Facility

In June 2019, the Company entered into a credit facility with Bank of America and other named lenders, which was periodically amended and restated and/or amended. The credit facility was amended and restated on March 11, 2020, and further amended on June 19, 2020, June 11, 2021 and December 16, 2021 (as amended, the “Prior Credit Facility”). The Prior Credit Facility (which was terminated on April 5, 2022 and replaced with the 2022 Credit Facility (as discussed below)), would have matured on March 11, 2025, and provided a senior secured revolving line of credit with a borrowing capacity of $250,000 and a term loan of $400,000. The term loan was subject to quarterly amortization payments.

2022 Credit Facility

On April 5, 2022, the Company entered into a new credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, and other named lenders (the “2022 Credit Facility”), and concurrently repaid in full and terminated the Prior Credit Facility. The 2022 Credit Facility, which matures on April 5, 2027, provides for revolving loans, swingline loans and letters of credit up to an aggregate amount of $650,000.

On April 5, 2022, the Company borrowed $475,000 under the 2022 Credit Facility, which was used to repay all outstanding amounts owed under the Prior Credit Facility and for general corporate purposes. Future advances under the 2022 Credit Facility will be used to finance working capital, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes of the Company. To the extent not previously paid, all then-outstanding amounts under the 2022 Credit Facility are due and payable on the maturity date.

The Company paid $1,980 in debt issuance costs in connection with the 2022 Credit Facility, which were allocated to the line of credit and amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the facility. Additionally, the Company had $4,473 of remaining unamortized debt issuance costs related to the Prior Credit Facility. The Company expensed $1,927 of the remaining unamortized debt issuance costs and allocated $2,546 to the 2022 Credit Facility.

The Company may borrow, prepay and re-borrow principal under the 2022 Credit Facility during its term. Advances under the 2022 Credit Facility can be either Adjusted Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) loans or base rate loans. SOFR rate revolving loans bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each interest period at a rate per annum equal to Term SOFR for such calculation plus 0.10% plus a margin ranging from 1.00% to 2.00%. Base rate revolving loans bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof at a rate per annum equal to the highest of (i) Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%, (ii) the rate of interest in effect for such day as publicly announced from time to time by the administrative agent as its “prime rate”, and (iii) Adjusted Term SOFR rate for a one-month tenor plus 1.00%, subject to the interest rate floors set forth therein, plus a margin ranging from 0.00% to 1.00%.

On November 14, 2023, in connection and concurrently with the closing of the Marucci acquisition, the Company entered into the Amendment amending the 2022 Credit Facility. The Amendment provided the Company with the Incremental Term A Loan in an amount of $400,000 and the Delayed Draw Term Loan in an amount of $200,000, each of which are permitted under the 2022 Credit Facility, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions. The Incremental Term A Loan was fully funded on November 14, 2023 and used to fund a portion of the consideration owed under the Marucci acquisition. The Delayed Draw Term Loan is available to the Company for up to six months commencing on December 6, 2023, until the earlier of (a) May 14, 2024 and (b) the date on which the Delayed Draw Term commitments have been terminated. Each Incremental Term Loan is subject to quarterly amortization payments of principal at a rate of 5.00% per annum. The Incremental Term Loans are in the form of term SOFR loans and base rate loans, at the option of the Company, and have an applicable margin ranging from 0.50% to 1.50% for base rate loans and 1.50% to 2.50% for term SOFR loans, subject to adjustment provisions. Each Incremental Term Loan has a maturity date of April 5, 2027, consistent with the 2022 Credit Facility.

The Company paid $10,063 in debt issuance costs, of which $6,709 were allocated to the Term A Loan and $3,354 were allocated to the Delayed Draw Term Loan. Loan fees allocated to the Term A Loan are amortized using the interest method over the term of the Credit Facility. Loan fees allocated to the Delayed Draw Term Loan were deferred as an asset until the debt is drawn. Upon the drawing of the Delayed Draw Term Loan, the fees will be reclassified to a contra-liability account and amortized over the term of the drawn debt using the interest method.

At December 29, 2023, the one-month SOFR and three-month SOFR rates were 5.34% and 5.36%, respectively. At December 29, 2023, our weighted-average interest rate on outstanding borrowing was 6.97%.

The 2022 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 December 29, 2023.

The following table summarizes the line of credit under the 2022 Credit Facility:

As of December 29, 2023, future principal payments for long-term debt, including the current portion, as summarized as follows:

11. Derivatives and Hedging

The Company is exposed to certain risks relating to its ongoing business operations. The primary risk managed by using derivative instruments is interest rate risk. The Company utilizes interest rate swaps to limit its exposure to interest rate risk by converting a portion of its floating-rate debt to a fixed-rate basis, thus reducing the impact of interest rate changes on future interest expense. Interest rate swaps involve the receipt of floating-rate amounts in exchange for fixed-rate interest payments based on the three-month Term SOFR over the lives of the agreements without an exchange of the underlying principal amounts.

As of December 29, 2023 and December 30, 2022, the Company had the following interest rate swap contracts:

On June 11, 2021, the Company terminated its existing swap agreement (the “2020 Swap Agreement”) and entered into an interest rate swap agreement (the “2021 Swap Agreement”) with a notional amount of $200,000. On April 5, 2022, the Company terminated its 2021 Swap Agreement and entered into a new interest rate swap agreement (the “2022 Swap Agreement”) with a notional amount of $100,000. The terminated 2020 and 2021 Swap Agreements resulted in unrealized gains of $324 and $12,270, respectively, at the termination dates that will continue to be accounted for in accumulated other comprehensive income and amortized into earnings over the term of the associated debt instrument.

The 2022 Swap Agreement has a maturity date of April 5, 2027 and is indexed to a three-month Term SOFR (as defined in the 2022 Swap Agreement). The 2022 Swap Agreement met the criteria as a cash flow hedge under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”), and is recorded to other assets or other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Refer to Note 16. Fair Value Measurements and Financial Instruments for additional information on determining the fair value. The unrealized gains or losses, after tax, will be recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income, a component of equity, and are expected to be reclassified into interest expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income when the forecasted transactions affect earnings. As required under ASC 815, the interest rate swap contracts’ effectiveness will be assessed on a quarterly basis using a quantitative regression analysis.

The unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, deferred to accumulated other comprehensive income resulting from the derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges for the years ended December 29, 2023, December 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021 were a loss of $473, and gains of $18,001 and $3,692, respectively. The reclassifications of gains from accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings related to the derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges during the years ended December 29, 2023, December 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 were $6,775, $3,177 and $48, respectively.

Over the next twelve months, the Company expects to recognize $7,279 of the $8,511 of unrealized gains currently included in accumulated other comprehensive income as an offset to interest expense.

12. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

Indemnification Agreements - In the ordinary course of business, the Company may provide indemnifications of varying scope and terms to customers, vendors, lessors, business partners, and other parties with respect to certain matters, including, but not limited to, losses arising out of breach of such agreements, services to be provided by the Company or intellectual property infringement claims made by third parties. In addition, the Company entered into indemnification agreements with directors and certain officers and employees that will require the Company, among other things, to indemnify them against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors, officers or employees. While the outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company does not believe that the outcome of any claims under indemnification arrangements will have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or liquidity.

Legal Proceedings - From time to time, the Company is involved in legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. Although the Company cannot assure the outcome of any such legal proceedings, based on information currently available, management does not believe that the ultimate resolution of any pending matters, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

On February 20, 2024, a complaint alleging violations of federal securities laws and seeking certification as a class action was filed against the Company and certain of its current and former officers in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia in Atlanta. The complaint has not yet been served. The complaint purports to seek damages on behalf of a putative class of persons who purchased the Company’s common stock between May 6, 2021 and November 2, 2023. The complaint asserts claims under Sections 10(b) and 20 of the Securities Exchange Act and alleges that the Company made material misstatements and omissions to investors regarding demand for the Company’s products and inventory levels. The complaint generally seeks money damages, interest, attorneys’ fees, and other costs. The case is in preliminary stages, and the Company anticipates filing a motion to dismiss all claims.

Bailment Pool Arrangements -The Company has relationships with several OEM partners, including General Motors (“GM”), Ford Motor Company (“Ford”), and Chrysler to obtain truck chassis. For Chrysler chassis, the Company pays a cash deposit upon transfer of the chassis to the Company’s premises and records the chassis within prepaids and other current assets on the consolidated balance sheets until the chassis is transferred to the dealer customer’s floorplan, at which time the cash deposit is returned to the Company. For GM and Ford, the Company entered into floorplan financing agreements with the OEM. The Company receives an allocation of chassis and pays interest expense on the allocated value of trucks based on the duration of time they are on the Company’s premises. Bailment, which is the non-ownership transfer of the chassis from GM and Ford to the Company, ends when the vehicle is sold to an authorized dealer, or upon authorized return of the vehicle to the manufacturer. The Company does not pay a cash deposit to obtain GM and Ford chassis, and accordingly it does not recognize an asset. or a liability related to these chassis. Interest payments made to manufacturer-affiliated finance companies are classified as operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows.

At December 29, 2023 and December 30, 2022, the Company had utilized $9,036 and $2,634 out of a maximum of $49,400 and $26,200 of Ford allocation of chassis, respectively, and $11,362 and $67,149, respectively, out of a maximum of $100,000 GM allocation of chassis. The company incurred $4,760 of interest expense related to chassis on hand during the year ended December 29, 2023.

Other Commitments- On November 30, 2017, the Company through FF US Holding Corp., acquired the assets of Flagship, Inc. d/b/a Tuscany and issued a 20% interest in FF US Holding Corp. to Flagship, Inc. A stockholders' agreement with Flagship, Inc. provided the Company with a call option (the “Call Option”) to acquire the remaining 20% of FF US Holding Corp. at any time from November 30, 2019 through November 30, 2024 at a value that approximates fair market value. On July 22, 2020, the Company exercised the Call Option and, pursuant to a stock purchase agreement with Flagship, Inc., the Company purchased the remaining 20% interest for $24,975 payable in a combination of stock and cash. The cash portion was settled in quarterly installment payments beginning in July 2020 through July 2022, which amounted to $6,556, $4,550 and $2,700 in 2020, 2021 and 2022, respectively. The Company had no remaining liability as of December 29, 2023. The stock portion of 136 shares were released from escrow on a quarterly basis starting January 2021 through July 2022. The Company released 58 and 78 shares during the years ended December 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The Company had no remaining shares to be released as of December 29, 2023. The exercise of the Call Option effectively canceled the put option held by Flagship, Inc.

13. Stockholders’ Equity

Share Repurchase Plan

On November 1, 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase plan for up to $300,000 in shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share. The share repurchase program is scheduled to expire on November 1, 2028. Repurchases of shares of Common Stock under the stock repurchase plan will be made in accordance with applicable securities laws and may be made under a variety of methods, which may include open market purchases. The stock repurchase program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of common stock, and it may be suspended or terminated at any time at the Company’s discretion.

During the fiscal year ended December 29, 2023, the Company repurchased approximately 428 shares for $25,000, at an average price of $58.44. All repurchased shares were immediately retired. The aggregate cost of share repurchases and average price paid per share exclude 1% excise tax on share repurchases imposed as part of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022. Common stock was reduced by the number of shares retired at $0.001 par value per shares. The excess purchase price over par value was allocated between additional paid-in capital and retained earnings. As of December 29, 2023, authorized repurchases of $275,000 remain available to the Company.

Equity Incentive Plans

The Company has outstanding awards under the following equity incentive plans: the 2008 Stock Option Plan (the “2008 Plan”), the 2008 Non-Statutory Stock Option Plan (the “2008 Non-Statutory Plan”) and the 2013 Omnibus Plan (the “2013 Plan”). On February 23, 2022, the Board of Directors, upon recommendation of the Compensation Committee approved the 2022 Omnibus Plan (the “2022 Plan”), which replaced the 2013 Plan. All remaining available shares under the 2013 Plan were rolled into the 2022 Plan and made available for issuance. No further awards will be granted pursuant to the 2008 Plan or the 2008 Non-Statutory Plan. Under the 2022 Plan, the Company has the ability to issue incentive stock options, non-statutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, RSUs, performance units and/or performance shares.

The equity incentive plans are administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company, which has the authority to determine the type of incentive award, as well as the terms and conditions of the awards. Options granted under the plans have vesting periods ranging fromone toten years and expire no later thanten years from the date of grant. RSUs generally vest over a three tofour-year period with equal annual installments beginning at the end of one year and the remaining vesting annually thereafter. In addition to time-based vesting criteria, certain of our RSUs include performance-based vesting criteria. As of December 29, 2023, there were 3,367 shares available for issuance under the 2022 Plan. The Company generally issues new shares in connection with awards under its equity incentive plans.

Stock-Based Compensation

Compensation expense related to the Company’s share-based awards for the fiscal years ended December 29, 2023, December 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021 was $16,465, $16,351, and $13,914, respectively, all of which related to RSUs and performance share units (“PSUs”). No compensation expense related to stock options was incurred during the fiscal years ended December 29, 2023, December 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021.

The following table summarizes the allocation of stock-based compensation in the accompanying consolidated statements of income:

As of January 1, 2021, $421 of stock-based compensation expense related to our executive bonus plan was included in Accrued Expenses on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. This amount was recognized as additional paid in capital during the year ended December 31, 2021 upon the issuance of the underlying restricted stock units.

Stock-based compensation expense capitalized to inventory was not material for the years ended December 29, 2023, December 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Restricted Stock Units

The Company grants both time-based and performance-based stock awards, which also include a time-based vesting feature. Compensation expense for time-based stock awards is measured at the grant date based on the closing market price of the Company’s common stock and recognized ratably over the vesting period.

For performance-based stock awards, compensation expense is measured based on estimates of the number of shares ultimately expected to vest at each reporting date based on management’s expectations regarding the relevant performance criteria. The recognition of compensation expense associated with performance-based stock awards requires defined criteria for assessing achievement and judgment in assessing the probability of meeting the performance goals.

The following table summarizes RSU activity:

The fair value of vested RSUs was $15,516, $15,140 and $27,213 for the years ended December 29, 2023, December 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. As of December 29, 2023, the Company had approximately $15,203 of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to RSUs, which will be recognized over the remaining weighted-average vesting period of approximately 1.79 years.

Performance Stock Units

During the year ended December 29, 2023, the Company issued PSUs to certain executives that represent shares potentially issuable in the future. Issuance is based upon the Company’s performance, over a 3 year performance period, on certain measures including return on invested capital and free cash flow. The PSUs vest only upon the achievement of the applicable performance goals for the performance period, and, depending on the actual achievement on the performance goals, the grantee may earn between 0% and 200% of the target PSUs. The fair value of PSUs is calculated based on the stock price on the date of grant.

The following table summarizes the activity for the Company’s unvested PSUs for the year ended December 29, 2023:

The stock-based compensation expense recognized each period is dependent upon our estimate of the number of shares that will ultimately vest based on the achievement of certain performance conditions. Future stock-based compensation expense for unvested performance-based awards could reach a maximum of $9,040 assuming achievement at the maximum level. The unrecognized stock-based compensation expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.59 years.

Stock Options

The following table summarizes stock option activity:

Aggregate intrinsic value represents the difference between the closing price of the Company’s common stock on NASDAQ and the exercise price of outstanding, in-the-money options. As of December 30, 2022, stock-based compensation expense related to stock options has been fully recognized.

During the years ended December 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021,33, and 192 shares of common stock, respectively, were issued due to the exercise of stock options, resulting in proceeds to the Company of approximately $169, and $1,042, respectively.

14. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) amounts are computed by dividing net income attributable to Fox stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS amounts are computed by dividing net income for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially dilutive common stock outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive common shares include shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options and vesting of restricted stock units, which are reflected in diluted earnings per share by application of the treasury stock method.

The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

The Company excluded 12 and 20 shares from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the years ended December 29, 2023 and December 30, 2022 as these shares would have been antidilutive. No potentially antidilutive shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2021.

15. Income Taxes

Provision for Income Taxes

The components of income tax expense are as follows:

The following table presents a reconciliation of the statutory federal rate and the Company’s effective tax rate for the periods presented:

Deferred Income Taxes

As of December 29, 2023, the Company had foreign tax credits of $51,232 that begin to expire in 2026, unless previously utilized.

As of December 29, 2023, the Company assessed the realizability of deferred tax assets and evaluated the need for a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets for each jurisdiction based on the framework of ASC 740. For the year ended December 29, 2023, the valuation allowance increased by $413 due to a taxable loss at the Company’s UK subsidiary. There was no valuation allowance for foreign tax credits as of December 29, 2023. It is reasonably possible that the company could record a material adjustment to the valuation allowance in the next twelve months. An estimate of the range cannot be made.

Unrecognized Tax Benefits

As of December 29, 2023, the Company had $1,274 of unrecognized tax benefits related to certain state tax positions. The Company regularly engages in discussions and negotiations with tax authorities regarding tax matters in various jurisdictions.

The Company’s 2019 and forward federal tax returns, state tax returns from 2017 and forward, and foreign tax returns from 2019 and forward are subject to examination by tax authorities.

16. Fair Value Measurements and Financial Instruments

The FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” requires the valuation of assets and liabilities required or permitted to be either recorded or disclosed at fair value based on hierarchy of available inputs as follows:

Level 2: Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and

The following table presents the Company’s hierarchy for its assets, liabilities and redeemable non-controlling interest measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of the following periods:

There were no transfers ofassets or liabilities between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 categories of the fair value hierarchy during the years ended December 29, 2023, and December 30, 2022.

As of December 29, 2023, the carrying amount of the principal under the Company’s 2022 Credit Facility - Incremental Term A Loan approximated fair value because it had a variable interest rate that reflected market changes in interest rates and changes in the Company’s net leverage ratio.

On June 11, 2021, the Company entered into the 2021 Swap Agreement to mitigate the cash flow risk associated with changes in interest rates on its variable rate debt. On April 5, 2022, the Company terminated its 2021 Swap Agreement and entered into the 2022 Swap Agreement. Refer to Note 11. Derivatives and Hedging for additional details of the agreement. In accordance with ASC 815, an interest rate swap contract is recognized as an asset or liability on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and is measured at fair value. The fair value was calculated utilizing Level 2 inputs.

17. Retirement Plan

The Company established a 401(k) plan to provide tax deferred salary deductions for all eligible employees. Participants may make voluntary contributions to the 401(k) plan, limited by certain IRS restrictions. The Company made matching contributions of $3,873, $3,649, and $2,655 for each of the years ended December 29, 2023, December 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Acquisition of Marucci Sports LLC

On November 14, 2023, the Company, through Fox Factory, Inc., acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding stock of Wheelhouse Holdings Inc. ("Wheelhouse") from Compass Group Diversified Holdings LLC for $567,194, net of cash acquired.
