Winnebago Industries Inc., the biggest maker of motor homes, said its fiscal first-quarter profit rose 26% as the company sold more luxury models and spent less on marketing.
Net income increased to $10 million, or 34 cents a share, from $7.9 million, or 25 cents, a year earlier, when the period was a week shorter, Forest City, Iowa-based Winnebago said. Sales in the quarter ended Dec. 1 rose 6.6% to $215 million.
