Stock Repurchase Program

On October 30, 2020, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program for the repurchase of up to $100.0 million of the Company's Class A common stock, expiring on October 31, 2022. Repurchases under the program may be made in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, with the amount and timing of repurchases to be determined at the Company's discretion, depending on market conditions and corporate needs. Open market repurchases will be structured to occur in accordance with applicable federal securities laws, including within the pricing and volume requirements of Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company may also, from time to time, enter into Rule 10b5-1 plans to facilitate repurchases of its shares under this authorization. This program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of Class A common stock and the program may be extended, modified, suspended or discontinued at any time at the Board's discretion. The Company expects to fund the repurchases using cash on hand.

Presentation

This press release presents historical results for the periods presented of the Company and its subsidiaries, which are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"), unless noted as a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company's initial public offering ("IPO") and related reorganization transactions ("Reorganization Transactions") that occurred on October 6, 2016 resulted in the Company as the sole managing member of CWGS Enterprises, LLC ("CWGS, LLC"), with sole voting power in and control of the management of CWGS, LLC. Despite its position as sole managing member of CWGS, LLC, the Company has a minority economic interest in CWGS, LLC. As of September 30, 2020, the Company owned 47.7% of CWGS, LLC. Accordingly, the Company consolidates the financial results of CWGS, LLC and reports a non-controlling interest in its consolidated financial statements.

To supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"), we use the following non-GAAP financial measures: EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Camping World Holdings, Inc. - Basic, Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Camping World Holdings, Inc. - Diluted, Adjusted Earnings Per Share - Basic, and Adjusted Earnings Per Share - Diluted (collectively the "Non-GAAP Financial Measures"). We believe that these Non-GAAP Financial Measures, when used in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, provide useful information about operating results, enhance the overall understanding of past financial performance and future prospects, and allow for greater transparency with respect to the key metrics we use in our financial and operational decision making. These Non-GAAP Financial Measures are also frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in the Company's industry. The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, and they should not be construed as an inference that the Company's future results will be unaffected by any items adjusted for in these Non-GAAP Financial Measures. In evaluating these Non-GAAP Financial Measures, you should be aware that in the future the Company may incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of those adjusted in this presentation. The Non-GAAP Financial Measures that we use are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies due to different methods of calculation. A reconciliation for the Company's Adjusted EBITDA outlook to the corresponding GAAP measure on a forward-looking basis cannot be provided without unreasonable efforts.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin

We define "EBITDA" as net income before other interest expense, net (excluding floor plan interest expense), provision for income tax expense and depreciation and amortization. We define "Adjusted EBITDA" as EBITDA further adjusted for the impact of certain non-cash and other items that we do not consider in our evaluation of ongoing operating performance. These items include, among other things, long-lived asset impairment, lease termination costs, (gain) loss on disposal of assets, equity-based compensation, Tax Receivable Agreement liability adjustment, restructuring costs related to the 2019 Strategic Shift, and other unusual or one-time items. We define "Adjusted EBITDA Margin" as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of total revenue. We caution investors that amounts presented in accordance with our definitions of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by our competitors, because not all companies and analysts calculate EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin in the same manner. We present EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin because we consider them to be important supplemental measures of our performance and believe they are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. Management believes that investors' understanding of our performance is enhanced by including these Non-GAAP Financial Measures as a reasonable basis for comparing our ongoing results of operations.

The following table reconciles EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin to the most directly comparable GAAP financial performance measures, which are net income (loss) and net income (loss) as a percentage of revenue, respectively (unaudited):

These restructuring costs include one-time employee termination benefits(f) relating to retail store or distribution center closures/divestitures, incremental inventory reserve charges, and other associated costs. These costs do not include lease termination costs, which are presented separately above.

Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Camping World Holdings, Inc. and Adjusted Earnings Per Share

We define "Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Camping World Holdings, Inc. - Basic" as net income attributable to Camping World Holdings, Inc. adjusted for the impact of certain non-cash and other items that we do not consider in our evaluation of ongoing operating performance. These items include, among other things, long-lived asset impairment, lease termination costs, (gain) loss on disposal of assets, equity-based compensation, Tax Receivable Agreement liability adjustment, restructuring costs related to the 2019 Strategic Shift, other unusual or one-time items, the income tax expense effect of these adjustments, and the effect of net income attributable to non-controlling interests from these adjustments.

We define "Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Camping World Holdings, Inc. - Diluted" as Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Camping World Holdings, Inc. - Basic adjusted for the reallocation of net income attributable to non-controlling interests from stock options and restricted stock units, if dilutive, or the assumed exchange, if dilutive, of all outstanding common units in CWGS, LLC for shares of newly-issued Class A common stock of Camping World Holdings, Inc.

We define "Adjusted Earnings Per Share - Basic" as Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Camping World Holdings, Inc. - Basic divided by the weighted-average shares of Class A common stock outstanding. We define "Adjusted Earnings Per Share - Diluted" as Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Camping World Holdings, Inc. - Diluted divided by the weighted-average shares of Class A common stock outstanding, assuming (i) the exchange of all outstanding common units in CWGS, LLC for newly-issued shares of Class A common stock of Camping World Holdings, Inc., if dilutive, and (ii) the dilutive effect of stock options and restricted stock units, if any. We present Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Camping World Holdings, Inc. - Basic, Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Camping World Holdings, Inc. - Diluted, Adjusted Earnings Per Share - Basic, and Adjusted Earnings Per Share - Diluted because we consider them to be important supplemental measures of our performance and we believe that investors' understanding of our performance is enhanced by including these Non GAAP financial measures as a reasonable basis for comparing our ongoing results of operations.

The following table reconciles Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Camping World Holdings, Inc. - Basic, Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Camping World Holdings, Inc. - Diluted, Adjusted Earnings Per Share - Basic, and Adjusted Earnings Per Share - Diluted to the most directly comparable GAAP financial performance measure, which is net income attributable to Camping World Holdings, Inc., in the case of the Adjusted Net Income non-GAAP financial measures, and weighted-average shares of Class A common stock outstanding - basic, in the case of the Adjusted Earnings Per Share non-GAAP financial measures:

(c) Represents the termination of operating leases relating primarily to the 2019 Strategic Shift, net of lease termination costs.

Represents an adjustment to eliminate the gains and losses on sales of(d) various assets, and losses on the disposal or sale of real estate at closed RV and Outdoor Retail locations.

(e) Represents non-cash equity-based compensation expense relating to employees, directors, and consultants of the Company.

Represents an adjustment to eliminate the loss on remeasurement of the Tax(f) Receivable Agreement primarily due to changes in our effective income tax rate and the transfer of certain assets from GSS to CW.

Represents restructuring costs relating to our 2019 Strategic Shift. These restructuring costs include one-time employee termination benefits(g) relating to retail store or distribution center closures/divestitures, incremental inventory reserve charges, and other associated costs. These costs do not include lease termination costs, which are presented separately above.

Represents the adjustment to net income attributable to non-controlling interests resulting from the above adjustments that impact the net income(h) of CWGS, LLC. This adjustment uses the non-controlling interest's weighted average ownership of CWGS, LLC of 55.4% and 58.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and 57.1% and 58.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively.

Represents the reallocation of net income attributable to non-controlling(i) interests from the impact of the assumed change in ownership of CWGS, LLC from stock options, restricted stock units, and/or common units of CWGS, LLC.

Represents the income tax expense effect of the above adjustment for(j) reallocation of net income attributable to non-controlling interests. This assumption uses an effective tax rate of 25.0% and 25.3% for the adjustments for the 2020 and 2019 periods, respectively.

Represents adjustments to reflect the income tax benefit of losses of consolidated C-corporations that under the Company's current equity structure cannot be used against the income of other consolidated subsidiaries of CWGS, LLC. Subsequent to the exchange of all common units in CWGS, LLC, the Company believes certain actions could be taken such(k) that the C-corporations' losses could offset income of other consolidated subsidiaries. The adjustment reflects the income tax benefit assuming effective tax rate of 25.0% and 25.3% during 2020 and 2019 periods, respectively, for the losses experienced by the consolidated C-corporations for which valuation allowances have been recorded. No assumed release of valuation allowance established for previous periods are included in these amounts.

(l) Represents the impact to the denominator for stock options, restricted stock units, and/or common units of CWGS, LLC.

(m) The below amounts have not been considered in our adjusted earnings per share - diluted amounts as the effect of these items are anti-dilutive.

Uses and Limitations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Management and our board of directors use the Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

* as a measurement of operating performance because they assist us in comparing the operating performance of our business on a consistent basis, as they remove the impact of items not directly resulting from our core operations; * for planning purposes, including the preparation of our internal annual operating budget and financial projections; * to evaluate the performance and effectiveness of our operational strategies; and * to evaluate our capacity to fund capital expenditures and expand our business.

By providing these Non-GAAP Financial Measures, together with reconciliations, we believe we are enhancing investors' understanding of our business and our results of operations, as well as assisting investors in evaluating how well we are executing our strategic initiatives. In addition, our Senior Secured Credit Facilities use EBITDA to measure our compliance with covenants such as consolidated leverage ratio. The Non-GAAP Financial Measures have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation, or as an alternative to, or a substitute for net income or other financial statement data presented in our unaudited consolidated financial statements included in this press release as indicators of financial performance. Some of the limitations are:

* such measures do not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; * such measures do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; * some of such measures do not reflect the interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt; * some of such measures do not reflect our tax expense or the cash requirements to pay our taxes; * although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future and such measures do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; and * other companies in our industry may calculate such measures differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

Due to these limitations, the Non-GAAP Financial Measures should not be considered as measures of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using these Non-GAAP Financial Measures only supplementally. As noted in the tables above, certain of the Non-GAAP Financial Measures include adjustments for long-lived asset impairment, lease termination costs, loss on disposal of assets, equity-based compensation, Tax Receivable Agreement liability adjustment, restructuring costs related to the 2019 Strategic Shift, other unusual or one-time items, and the income tax expense effect described above, as applicable. It is reasonable to expect that certain of these items will occur in future periods. However, we believe these adjustments are appropriate because the amounts recognized can vary significantly from period to period, do not directly relate to the ongoing operations of our business and complicate comparisons of our internal operating results and operating results of other companies over time. Each of the normal recurring adjustments and other adjustments described in this paragraph and in the reconciliation tables above help management with a measure of our core operating performance over time by removing items that are not related to day-to-day operations.
