Historical volatility for HD Finance has dropped to 14.8%, supporting range-bound price action forecasts. Investors perceiving lower risk may opt to increase allocations, boosting liquidity and tighter spreads in daily trades. Crews are also executing a comprehensive surveying program to support drill collar placement and spatial accuracy across the Trapper Zone. Using high-precision GPS, total stations, and laser scanning technology, the team is mapping the newly built 4 km Trapper Trail access route, establishing a geophysics baseline, and cutting grid lines (cutlines) through vegetation to enable further geophysical traverses. The geophysics baseline will serve as a calibration reference for magnetometer instruments, ensuring consistent and reliable detection of anomalies that may indicate subsurface mineralization. Collectively, these surveys are designed to eliminate spatial errors in modelling and optimize drill hole targeting. "While our second quarter results continue to be impacted by a challenging commercial environment for discretionary products and an uncertain tariff situation, we are extremely pleased to announce a strategic partnership for HDFS with KKR and PIMCO that generates significant value for Harley-Davidson on all levels," said Jochen Zeitz , Chairman, President and CEO, Harley-Davidson. "Our strategic partners have valued the HDFS business at approximately 1.75x post transaction book value. We expect this will unlock $1.25 billion in cash and leaves HDFS well positioned to serve our customers and dealers. With the cash from the transaction, we plan to reduce our debt by $450 million and accelerate our $1 billion share buyback program announced last year, by the purchase of $500 million in the second half of '25. We also have the flexibility to invest up to $300 million of additional funds into future growth opportunities." In the latest conference call, HD Finance leadership expressed confidence in hitting guidance despite inflationary pressures. Commodity price fluctuations have had minimal impact on net income due to effective hedging strategies, keeping margins insulated.
