Subsequent Events [Abstract] |
Subsequent Event | Subsequent EventIn April 2021, the Company received notification from the Economic Ministry of Belgium that, following a request from the European Union (EU), the Company would be subject to the revocation of Binding Origin Information (BOI) rulings, effective April 19, 2021. Beginning in 2019, the Company has operated under BOIs which allowed it to supply its EU markets with certain motorcycles produced at its Thailand manufacturing facility at tariff rates of 6%. Following the revocation, all non-electric motorcycles that Harley-Davidson imports into the EU, regardless of origin, will be subject to a total tariff rate of 31% from April 19, 2021 through May 31, 2021. This rate is expected to increase to 56% effective June 1, 2021. This ruling will effectively prohibit the Company from functioning competitively in the EU. The Company estimates the impact of the additional EU tariffs in 2021, if unmitigated, to be approximately $135 million and expects the impact to be approximately $200 million to $225 million on annual basis in future years. The Company is appealing the revocation of the BOIs. It has also sought temporary extended reliance on the 6% tariff rate for motorcycles produced in Thailand, ordered prior to April 19, 2021. There is no assurance that the appeal will be successful or that the Company will receive the extended reliance.
