Polaris Inc. (NYSE:PII) reported its first quarter 2025 results on Tuesday.
Polaris reported a first-quarter adjusted loss of 90 cents per share, beating the street view of 91 cents loss. Quarterly sales of $1.54 billion (down 12% year over year) were in line with the analyst consensus estimate.
Primary factors affecting first-quarter sales were lower volume due to planned shipment reductions and lower net pricing driven by higher promotional spend.
North America sales of $1.290 billion (down 11% year over year) represented 84 percent of total sales. International sales of $246 million (down 16% year over year) represented 16% of total sales.
“While consumer uncertainty and a dynamic tariff environment are near-term hurdles, we are thoughtfully navigating these challenges,” said Mike Speetzen, Chief Executive Officer of Polaris. However, the company noted minimal first-quarter tariff impact due to timing.
The adjusted gross profit margin of 16.6% decreased by 242 basis points, primarily due to higher promotional activity and negative foreign exchange.
Operating expenses were $303 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to $313 million in the year-ago period.
Polaris exited the quarter with cash and equivalents worth $291.7 million and inventories of $1.748 billion.
Outlook: The company introduced second-quarter 2025 sales guidance of $1.6 billion to $1.8 billion versus the $1.820 billion estimate.
Polaris said it is withdrawing the full-year 2025 guidance due to trade and economic uncertainty.
Price Action: PII shares traded higher by 0.27% to $33.83 on Tuesday.
