Thor Industries Inc (THO) saw its stock price plummet by 5.31% during intraday trading on Wednesday, as investors reacted to a combination of external economic pressures and cautious forward guidance.

The drop comes despite the company reporting better-than-expected fiscal 2026 first-quarter results, with net income of $21.7 million and revenue of $2.39 billion. However, concerns over a government shutdown and ongoing tariff headlines have weighed heavily on consumer confidence, a critical factor for Thor Industries' recreational vehicle sales.

Additionally, the company's guidance for fiscal 2026 assumes a low- to mid-single-digit retail decline in North America, even with stable market share. This outlook may have disappointed investors who were anticipating stronger growth, leading to the sharp sell-off.
