Item 5.03    Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year

Effective as of March 31, 2016, the Board of Directors of Fox Factory Holding Corp. (the “Company” or “Fox”) approved a change in the fiscal year of the Company from a calendar year ending on December 31 to a 52-53 week fiscal year ending on the Friday nearest to December 31, effective beginning with the first quarter of 2016. In a 52 week fiscal year, each of the Company’s quarterly periods will comprise 13 weeks. The additional week in a 53 week fiscal year is added to the fourth quarter, making such quarter consist of 14 weeks. The Company’s first 53 week fiscal year will occur in the fiscal year ending January 1, 2021. The Company expects to make the fiscal year change on a prospective basis, beginning with the first quarter of 2016, and will not adjust operating results for prior periods. The change to the Company’s fiscal year will not impact the Company’s calendar year results for the year ended December 31, 2015. However, the change will impact the comparability of prior fiscal quarters and annual periods in future filings. This change was identified as a best practice in connection with the Company’s previously disclosed global enterprise resource planning system (“ERP”), which the Company began implementing in May 2015. The Company believes this change will provide numerous benefits, including, but not limited to, better alignment with manufacturing scheduling and improved comparability between periods.

Since the change in the Company’s year-end is from the last day of the month to a 52-53 week fiscal year commencing within seven days of the month end last reported, and the new fiscal year will commence with the end of the old fiscal year, the change is not deemed a change in fiscal year for purposes of reporting subject to Rules 13a-10 or 15d-10 of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Accordingly, a transition report is not required to be filed by the Company.

The reporting periods and applicable reports for fiscal year 2016 are expected to be as follows:
