Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary sources of liquidity have been cash provided by operating and financing activities, including funds as needed from our credit facility and issuances of long-term debt. Our primary uses of funds have been for new product development, capital investments, cash dividends to shareholders, repurchases and retirements of common stock, and acquisitions. The seasonality of production and shipments cause working capital requirements to fluctuate during the year and from year to year.
We believe that existing cash balances and cash flows to be generated from operating activities, borrowing capacity under our credit facility and from future issuances or borrowings of long-term debt, will be sufficient to fund operations, new product development, capital investments, cash dividends to shareholders, and repurchases and retirements of common stock for at least the next 12 months and for the foreseeable future thereafter.
Cash Flows
The following table summarizes the cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities:
| ($ in millions) | Six months ended June 30, | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| 2026 · 2025 · Change | |||
| Total cash provided by (used for): | |||
| Operating activities | $(90.0) | $403.5 | $(493.5) |
| Investing activities | (153.0) | (59.7) | (93.3) |
| Financing activities | 327.8 | (328.9) | 656.7 |
Operating Activities:
The decrease in net cash from operating activities was primarily the result of working capital additions in the six months ended June 30, 2026, partially offset by higher net income. Net income was $59.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to a net loss of $145.8 million in the prior year comparable period.
Investing Activities:
The primary sources and uses of cash were for the purchase of property, equipment and tooling for continued capacity and capability at our manufacturing, distribution, and product development facilities, and distributions from and contributions to Polaris Acceptance. Net cash used for investing activities increased primarily due to incremental cash payments to facilitate the sale of the Indian Motorcycle business and strategic investments made during the first quarter of 2026.
Financing Activities:
Net cash provided by financing activities was $327.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to net cash used for financing activities of $328.9 million for the comparable period in 2025. This change was primarily the result of net borrowings of $411.5 million under financing agreements in the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to net repayments of $253.5 million during the comparable period in 2025.
Financing Arrangements:
We are party to an unsecured credit facility, which includes a $1.4 billion variable interest rate Revolving Loan Facility that matures in December 2029, under which we have unsecured borrowings. As of June 30, 2026, there were borrowings of $459.8 million outstanding under the Revolving Loan Facility. Our credit facility also includes a Term Loan Facility, pursuant to which $462.5 million was outstanding as of June 30, 2026. We are required to make principal payments under the Term Loan Facility totaling $25 million over the next 12 months. We amended the agreement governing the credit facility (the “Credit Facility Amendment”) in June 2025 to modify the financial covenants in the existing credit agreement for each quarter ending June 30, 2025 through and including June 30, 2026 (the “Covenant Relief Period”). During the Covenant Relief Period, the Credit Facility Amendment limits us from repurchasing shares and paying dividends other than regular quarterly dividends and certain other exceptions, and limits the amount of debt certain of our subsidiaries may incur. For the credit facility, interest is charged at rates based on adjusted Term SOFR plus the applicable add-on percentage, as defined in the credit agreement. As of June 30, 2026, we had $931.0 million of availability on the Revolving Loan Facility.
The credit agreement contains covenants that require us to maintain certain financial ratios, including minimum interest coverage and maximum leverage ratios. The credit agreement requires us to maintain an interest coverage ratio of not less than 3.00 to 1.00 and a leverage ratio of not more than 3.50 to 1.00 on a rolling four quarter basis. The interest coverage ratio is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA to interest expense for the then most-recently ended four fiscal quarters. The leverage ratio is calculated as consolidated funded indebtedness less cash and cash equivalents, capped at $300 million, to Adjusted EBITDA for the then most-recently ended four fiscal quarters. The Credit Facility Amendment modified the requirements related to the interest coverage ratio and leverage ratio during the Covenant Relief Period. During the Covenant Relief Period, the interest coverage ratio is 2.50 to 1.00 for the quarters ending June 30, 2025, September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2025, and 2.00 to 1.00 for the quarters ending March 31, 2026 and June 30, 2026. During the Covenant Relief Period, the leverage ratio is 4.00 to 1.00 for the quarter ending June 30, 2025, 4.50 to 1.00 for the quarter ending September 30, 2025, and 5.50 to 1.00 for the quarters ending December 31, 2025, March 31, 2026 and June 30, 2026.
In November 2023, we issued $500 million aggregate principal amount of 6.95% Senior Notes due 2029 (the “6.95% Senior Notes”) in an underwritten public offering. We received approximately $492 million in net proceeds from the offering after deducting the underwriting discount and other fees and expenses. The 6.95% Senior Notes bear interest at a rate of 6.95% per year and mature in March 2029. In November 2025, the Company issued $500 million aggregate principal amount of 5.60% Senior Notes due 2031 (the “5.60% Senior Notes” and together with the 6.95% Senior Notes, the “senior notes”) in an underwritten public offering. The Company received approximately $497 million in net proceeds from the offering after deducting the underwriting discount and other fees and expenses. The 5.60% Senior Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.60% and mature in March 2031. All of our senior notes are governed by an indenture and are subject to customary covenants and make-whole provisions upon early redemption.
On July 2, 2018, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated May 29, 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of Boat Holdings, LLC, a privately held Delaware limited liability company, headquartered in Elkhart, Indiana which manufactures boats (“Boat Holdings”). As a component of the Boat Holdings merger agreement, we have committed to make a series of deferred payments to the former owners through July 2030. The original discounted payable was for $76.7 million, of which $36.8 million was outstanding as of June 30, 2026.
As of June 30, 2026, we were in compliance with all debt covenants and our debt to total capital ratio was 70 percent. Additionally, as of June 30, 2026, we had letters of credit outstanding of $63.4 million, primarily related to inventory purchases.
Share Repurchases:
We did not repurchase shares of our common stock in open-market transactions under our share repurchase program during the first six months of 2026. As of June 30, 2026, up to an additional $1.1 billion of our common stock remains available for repurchase under our share repurchase program.
Wholesale Customer Financing Arrangements:
We have arrangements with certain finance companies to provide secured floor plan financing for our dealers. These arrangements provide liquidity by financing dealer purchases of our products without the use of our working capital. A majority of the worldwide sales of ORVs, snowmobiles, boats and related PG&A are financed under similar arrangements whereby we receive payment within a few days of shipment of the product. We participate in the cost of dealer financing up to certain limits.
Under these arrangements, we have agreed to repurchase products repossessed by these finance companies. As of June 30, 2026, the potential aggregate repurchase obligations were approximately $141.0 million. Our financial exposure under these repurchase agreements is limited to the difference between the amounts unpaid by the dealer with respect to the repossessed product plus costs of repossession and the amount received on the resale of the repossessed product. No material losses have been incurred under these agreements during the periods presented.
Retail Customer Financing Arrangements:
We have agreements with third-party finance companies to provide financing options to end consumers of our products. We have no material contingent liabilities for residual value or credit collection risk under these agreements.
