2017 ANNUAL REPORT A LEADER IN VEHICLE MANUFACTURING CEO MESSAGE Dear Fellow REV Shareholders: Our first year as a publicly traded company was both exciting and eventful. Notwithstanding the work involved in executing both our initial public offering and follow-on equity offerings in fiscal 2017, we set a high performance bar for growth and we achieved virtually all of our goals during the year. Our very successful IPO in January priced at $22 per share, $1 above our original range. In October we completed a highly successful follow- on equity offering of 11.5 million shares. Our equity offerings were well received by the markets, both being significantly oversubscribed. As stated, we set high growth goals for the year and other than falling slightly below our aggressive revenue projections, we exceeded all other goals. We achieved a 32% increase in adjusted EBITDA[1] on sales growth of 18%. This was the second year in a row of achieving these impressive TIM SULLIVAN growth targets.
