FOXF experienced strong new design wins in its Power Vehicle segment and continued strength in its aftermarket business that lifted the stock in the quarter. While pleased with the results, we have trimmed our position given our concerns about demand in FOXF’s bike segment (45% of revenue) and excess inventory in the supply chain.”
