**Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2025 Results **
**Harley-Davidson, Inc. Consolidated Financial Results **
In the fourth quarter, consolidated revenue was down 28 percent, driven by a revenue decline of 10 percent at HDMC and a revenue decline of 59 percent at HDFS. In the fourth quarter, the consolidated operating loss was $361 million, compared to a consolidated operating loss of $193 million in the prior year period.
For the full year, consolidated revenue was down 14 percent compared to prior year. This was driven by a decrease of 13 percent at HDMC and a decrease of 16 percent at HDFS. For the full year, consolidated operating income was down 7 percent, driven by a loss at HDMC and record-high earnings at HDFS. HDFS’s results were favorably impacted by the HDFS transaction. The full year operating loss at LiveWire was $75 million, which was in-line with our expectations.
Harley-Davidson Motor Company (HDMC) – Results
In the fourth quarter, global motorcycle shipments at HDMC decreased 4 percent from a year ago. HDMC revenue was down 10 percent, due to net pricing and incentive spend and lower volumes. Gross profit came in at a loss of $30 million compared to a loss of $3 million in the prior year period, due to increased tariff costs and net pricing and incentive spend.
Operating expenses totaled $230 million, which was $19 million higher compared to prior year, primarily due to higher marketing expense. Operating loss was $260 million in the fourth quarter compared to an operating loss of $214 million in the prior year period.
For the full year, global motorcycle shipments decreased 16 percent from the prior year. HDMC revenue was down 13 percent, due primarily to lower wholesale volumes. Gross margin was lower by 3.8 points in 2025 compared to 2024, driven by incremental tariffs, negative operating leverage and lower volumes. Operating expenses were $895 million, $18 million higher than a year ago. Operating loss was $29 million for the full year 2025 compared to operating income of $278 million in the prior year.
Harley-Davidson Retail Motorcycle Sales
(excludes LiveWire units)
In the fourth quarter, global retail sales of new motorcycles were down 1 percent versus the prior year. In North America, retail sales increased by 5 percent, driven by strength in the Touring category. In EMEA, retail sales declined by 24 percent, driven by weakness across the region. The 1 percent decline in APAC was an improvement from the first half of 2025, with continued weakness in China. Latin America sales increased by 10 percent, where both Brazil and Mexico were positive.
For the full year 2025, global retail sales of new motorcycles were down 12 percent versus prior year. In North America, retail sales were down 13 percent for the full year, driven by weakness in the Touring category in the first half of the year, as customer traffic declined and affordability became more of a focus. EMEA retail sales declined by 11 percent for the full year, driven by weakness across all countries. APAC retail sales declined by 15 percent, with the most significant weakness experienced within non-core motorcycle models.
**Harley-Davidson Financial Services (HDFS) – Results
**
In the fourth quarter, HDFS revenue was down 59 percent from prior year, driven by lower retail and wholesale finance receivables at lower yields. The decline in retail receivables was due to the sale of loan assets as part of the HDFS transaction. On the expense side, fourth quarter interest expense increased year-over-year, due to discrete liability management costs incurred in the fourth quarter to retire debt as a result of the HDFS Transaction. In the fourth quarter, HDFS had an operating loss of $82 million.
For the full year, HDFS revenue was $869 million, down 16 percent from prior year, primarily due to lower retail and wholesale receivables. HDFS operating income was $490 million, driven by favorable provision for credit loss expense due to the HDFS transaction impacts and higher other income, partially offset by lower net interest income and higher operating expense. For the full year 2025, HDFS operating Income was $490 million, up from $248 million in full year 2024.
**LiveWire - Results
**
In the fourth quarter, LiveWire revenue increased 9 percent compared to the prior year, driven by higher unit sales of EV motorcycles and electric bikes in the quarter. LiveWire operating loss of $18 million, 30 percent less than a year ago, was in line with our expectations.
For the full year, LiveWire revenue decreased by 3 percent compared to the prior year. LiveWire operating loss of $75 million was 32 percent less than prior year and was in line with our expectations. For the full year, LiveWire sold 653 EV motorcycles, which compares to 612 EV motorcycles sold in 2024.
