What are these factors for concern? First, Dionisio is worried the recent appreciation of the U.S. dollar will put pressure of the company given its U.S. production and 35 percent of sales coming from outside the United States. Second, he said competition has stepped up its game for the 2015 model year.

For the quarter, Dionisio is predicting $1.18 billion in revenue with an EPS of $0.59. Looking ahead, he expects Harley-Davidson to bring in $5.6 billion in revenue for the full-year, with and an EPS of $3.77.
