Polaris swung to a third-quarter loss due to an impairment charge, but sales rose amid strong demand for its four-wheelers and motorcycles.

The maker of snowmobiles, all-terrain vehicles and other recreational crafts swung to a loss of $15.8 million, or 28 cents a share from a profit of $27.7 million, or 49 cents a share, a year earlier.

Stripping out certain one-off items such as an asset impairment charge of $42.3 million, Polaris logged adjusted earnings of 41 cents a share, eclipsing the average Wall Street target of 16 cents a share.

Third-quarter sales rose 7% to $1.84 billion, surpassing the average Wall Street target of $1.76 billion.

Polaris projected a 2025 adjusted loss of 5 cents a share on adjusted sales in a range between $6.9 billion and $7.1 billion.

In April, Polaris withdrew its previous full-year guidance due to trade and economic uncertainty.

Earlier this month, Polaris agreed to sell its Indian brand motorcycle unit to investment firm Carolwood LP.
