2023 Annual Report
To Our Fellow Shareholders:
Our team delivered strong growth of 11% during 2023 even with the adverse impact of the UAW strikes during the
fourth quarter. These results represented record revenue for our business in total and for every business segment.
Additionally, gross margin increased more than 200 basis points over 2022, and operating cash flow exceeded
$53 million, which was used to grow our business and reduce debt. Our strong performance is a testament to the
hard work of our teams and strong positioning in the market of our portfolio of brands. While we expect our sales
growth to moderate during 2024, we will use this opportunity to build on our progress in 2023 to further improve our
operating execution and drive further improvements in profitability and cash flow.
