Double-digit gains helped fuel the Plymouth-based maker of snowmobiles and all-terrain vehicles.

The results beat Wall Street predictions, but Arctic Cat issued lower-than-expected profit and sales predictions for the current fiscal year.

The Plymouth-based retailer is recalling thousands of snowmobiles after testing revealed a headlamp malfunction. Officials say the headlamp may cause disorientation and lead to crashes, though no reports of headlamp problems or injuries have been reported.

She will start her new role with the women's apparel company on Nov. 26. Via replaces Joel Waller, who took over when Larry Barenbaum left the struggling Plymouth-based retailer in February.
