• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

BRP Inc. started trading today on the TSX (Toronto Stock Exchange) under the ticker symbol "DOO". The offering was oversubscribed by 3 times and was priced at the upper range of its proposed price of $21.50. It traded 7.4 million shares today and closed at a price of $24.01. Nice one day profit for those who got the shares at the IPO price.
 
So................Bob, are you going to chase down some financials for us to peruse? I note that BRP is on the Canadian stock exchange, so the formating and information may be different from the SEC requirements in the USA.
 
Sorry Bob

If they're out in the open; we should be able to find sales numbers now! :thumbup:

I scanned through the prospectus on sedar.com and could not find any information on the number of units sold. But I did not read it in detail. Lots of financial data. I found one interesting statement stating that Spyder sales have increased 24% compounded annually since 2009 and motorcycles of 500 cc and greater have decreased in sales 7% compounded annually in the same time period worldwide.

Cool! Thanks for sharing.
 
US Sales

If they're out in the open; we should be able to find sales numbers now! :thumbup:

The NHTSA quarterly progress reports and other "official" documents between BRP and NHTSA concerning the gas cap recall show 33,668 units sold which presumably means sold in the US and subject to NHTSA oversight. That 33,668 units is the number that were recalled for the gas cap and includes all models, all years 2008 thru 2012 -- GS, RS, RT. Now we need info for north of "the border" as well as outside the US & Canada. But it's a starting point...
 
Bloomberg showed revenue estimates of between 3.1 and 3.4 billion for YE Jan, 14. and for the same period EPS of between .40 and 1.64 This is a very strong company.
