Dear Shareholders,

On behalf of the Harley-Davidson Board of Directors and the entire team, I want to express our gratitude for your support of Harley-Davidson and our Hardwire strategic plan.

In the fourth year of our strategy, we faced considerable challenges from ongoing cyclical headwinds in the discretionary products market. Furthermore, high-interest rates dampened consumer confidence and made premium items less accessible across various sectors, including our own.

Despite these hurdles, we continued to progress in critical areas of our strategic plan, which we believe positions the Company for profitable growth in the future. The introduction of our 2024 Street Glide® and Road Glide® Touring motorcycles contributed to nearly +5% growth in the U.S. Touring segment, boosting Harley-Davidson’s market share in this category to almost 75%, a rise of 3.5 percentage points compared to 2023.

The launch of these Touring motorcycles was a key element of our Profit Focus initiative under The Hardwire strategy. The decisions we’ve made as part of our Hardwire approach have allowed us to regain profitability while ensuring we have a robust product pipeline for years ahead.

We are confident that the decisions we have made and our daring actions aligned with our Hardwire strategy continue to solidify our foundation for future success. We will persist in exploring transformative opportunities and remain committed to meeting our Hardwire profit objectives over time.

Key highlights from The Hardwire strategic plan include:

Profit Focus

We maintained emphasis on our core products while investing in essential segments for the future. These efforts are supported by our conviction that focusing on our most profitable areas and enhancing the customer experience through our dealer network will deliver long-term value.

Selective Expansion and Redefinition

Our approach to Selective Expansion and Redefinition reflects our commitment to excel in promising markets and motorcycle segments. Along with low-end motorcycle offerings in key markets, the Adventure Touring segment shows potential for future growth for the Company.

Growth Beyond Bikes

We’re dedicated to developing products, services, and experiences that inspire our customers to embrace adventure and the Harley-Davidson lifestyle. In 2024, we proudly partnered with Champion once more in the history of the Company, and we will continue seeking brand collaborations that resonate with our customers and communities while expanding our licensing prospects worldwide.

LETTER FROM THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER AND CHAIRMAN

Enhanced Customer Experience

We increased our digital investments in 2024, aimed at driving traffic to our dealers. These initiatives led to a remarkable 177% rise in engagements with motorcycle pages during the model year 2025 rollout. We improved our event offerings globally, better aligning our initiatives with those of our dealer network. Our second annual Homecoming event in Milwaukee attracted over 60,000 riders, fans, and motorcycle enthusiasts celebrating the Harley-Davidson brand.

Proudly, the Harley-Davidson Riding Academy achieved the milestone of training one million riders in 2024. HDRA remains the largest rider training network in the U.S. and the only nationwide rider licensing program supported by a motorcycle manufacturer.

Looking Ahead

With the 2025 model year campaign, we unveiled all-new and refreshed motorcycles aligning with our Profit Focus and Selective Expansion strategic objectives.

The new Harley-Davidson Cruiser motorcycle lineup includes six fresh models with significantly upgraded performance and technology. Additionally, we revamped the powerful Sportster® S model and introduced a limited-production collection of four CVOTM motorcycles for their 26th anniversary.

New for 2025 are the Street Glide® Ultra, a fully equipped long-distance Touring model, and the Pan America® 1250 ST adventure sport motorcycle.

Our Road. Our Rules. Let’s Ride.

It takes a dedicated team, and we have an exceptional one at Harley-Davidson. I want to extend my appreciation to our employees united in their passion for this brand.

Achieving 122 years of continuous operation reflects our grit, determination, and unwavering ambition to succeed. You can depend on Harley-Davidson to endure, innovate, adapt, and lead. We will always remain, the heartbeat of the American dream—proudly manufacturing the best motorcycles worldwide, regardless of the situation.

Thank you for your investment and belief in the everlasting pursuit of adventure and freedom for the soul.

PROXY SUMMARY

Item 2: To approve, by advisory vote, the compensation of our Named Executive Officers

In line with our commitment to shareholder engagement and SEC regulations, we provide our shareholders the opportunity to vote on an advisory basis regarding our Named Executive Officers’ compensation. Therefore, input from shareholders is being sought via this advisory vote on the compensation of our NEOs as outlined in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section and the associated compensation tables in this Proxy Statement according to SEC rules.

Our Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote “FOR” this proposal.

Our executive compensation principles emphasize pay-for-performance. Several aspects of our compensation are linked to performance measures approved by the Human Resources Committee. For instance: (i) the annual Short-Term Incentive Plan (“STIP”) and our performance shares stipulate that financial performance, must be met before recipients can access this compensation; (ii) the equity aspect of our compensation plan yields higher gains when our stock price rises. Our goals and principles are as follows:

• 
  Pay-for-performance | Rewarding outstanding performance with higher pay outcomes, while minimizing or eliminating payouts when performance expectations fall short;
• Aligning with shareholder interests | Utilizing equity-based awards and stock ownership guidelines to direct management focus on sustainable long-term growth and share price appreciation;
• Encouraging results and behaviors | Striking a balance between rewarding short-term success and long-term performance while deterring excessive or inappropriate risks;
• Aligning metrics with strategy and operations | Selecting performance measures reflective of our strategic goals with objectives that are challenging, yet viable, during the specified period; and
• 
  Competitively targeting compensation | Establishing target pay competitively relative to the 50th percentile of our compensation peer group to stay competitive and attract top executive talent.

Item 3: To ratify the selection of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025

Our Board of Directors unanimously endorses a vote “FOR” the ratification of Ernst & Young LLP as the independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025.

Item 4: To approve the Harley-Davidson, Inc. 2025 Director Stock Plan

Our Board of Directors unanimously advocates a vote “FOR” approval of the Harley-Davidson, Inc. 2025 Director Stock Plan.

Action will also be taken on any other matters that may properly come before the 2025 Annual Meeting of Shareholders and any related adjournments or postponements of that meeting.

The Board of Directors or proxyholders will exercise discretion on other matters that might arise during the 2025 Annual Meeting of Shareholders as permitted by Rule 14a-4(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
