Segment break-up of OHT market Key OHT Segments Agriculture ForestryMiningConstruction
28
Construction is Booming 2014 machinery sales up 8.7% 2015 forecasted to be even higher 8.9% 2016-2019 looking strong with CAGR of 4.5% or higher
29
Growth is Across the Board 2015 Single Family Housing Forecasted to be up 15% over 2014 Commercial Building also forecasted in the 15% range Construction is EVERYWHERE….not just in Southeast or West. Not just suburbs as in past. INFILL in cities, led by millennials, driving urban construction
30
Construction Equipment
31
70% Of All OTR Tires 24”-25” 13.00-24 14.00-24 15.5-25 17.5-25 20.5-25 23.5-25 25.5-25 29.5-25
32
OTR Segment Offers Greatest Short Term Opportunity You don’t have to be an OTR dealer to participate. Any commercial dealer, with a lift gate truck, can handle majority of tire sizes used on construction and industrial machines
33
Go Where the Numbers Are…. 800,000+ Skid Steers in the USA alone 600,000 on tires 2.4 MILLION SS Tires in the field right now Severe use. High scrub rate. Wear out fast Limited sizes to inventory 10-16.5 12-16.5
34
Rental Companies Are Hot…
35
Rentals Are Hot! Over 50% of 2014 new equipment purchased by rental companies Trend forecasted to be even higher 2015-2019 Driven by continuing uncertainty Users increasingly deploying specialized equipment for specialized jobs. More economical to rent than own Uncertainty over long term Federal Highway Bill
36
So What? Do not ignore the rental fleets They are growing fast Get to know local people at rental company branch locations United Rentals Sunbelt Cat Equipment Etc. They are everywhere. In all markets.
37
Where to Look….
38
Forestry
39
OHT…It’s a Dealer’s World. OTR Users Need Dealer Service and Value their servicing dealer You offer what manufacturers do not: 24 Hour emergency service Inventory close at hand. Trained technicians/OSHA certified Data driven recommendations to help lower production costs/reduce downtime
40
It’s All About Productivity & Cost No one cares about tires except for those of us in this room! Customers only care about lowering their production costs and improving productivity If this could occur through some new, disruptive technology, we’d be out of business
41
Good News…You are the Critical Link! Right service partner is still the critical link in making everything work Right tire recommendation Right service offerings You are in the driver’s seat. Customer appreciates what you can do for him more than the brand of the tire. You can recommend the right bundle of products and services that you feel will help your customer best.
42
Majors De-Focused Pirelli spins off AG tire business to Trelleborg Goodyear spins off AG business to Titan Continental spins off OTR business in U.S. to Titan Conti spins off AG business in Europe to Mitas
43
It will be a buyer’s market
44
You Will Have Even More Choices in the Future…. Emerging Players starting to challenge the global giants Emerging players more sophisticated Choose Wisely….
