Winnebago (NYSE: WGO) Returns to Profit in 2Q, Revenue Triples

 

Winnebago Industries Inc. (NYSE: WGO) reported Tuesday that the company returned to a fiscal second-quarter profit, citing that revenue more than tripled due to a rise in motor home deliveries, according to Associated Press.

 

Winnebago earned $706,000, or 2 cents per share, for the period that ended Feb. 27, compared to a loss of $10.4 million, or 36 cents per share, a year earlier. The latest quarter's results included $2.2 million in tax benefits.
