Oshkosh Corporation Named a 2019 World’s Most Ethical Company by Ethisphere Institute

Oshkosh Corporation (NYSE: OSK), a leading manufacturer of specialty
vehicles and vehicle bodies, announced today that it has been recognized
by the Ethisphere Institute, a global leader in defining and advancing
the standards of ethical business practices, as one of the 2019
World’s Most Ethical Companies. Oshkosh Corporation has been
recognized for four consecutive years and is one of only four honorees
in the Automotive category.

In 2019, 128 honorees were recognized spanning 21 countries and 50
industries. The thirteenth class of honorees profoundly illustrate how
companies continue to be the driving force for improving communities,
building capable and empowered workforces and fostering corporate
cultures focused on ethics and a strong sense of purpose.

“Thanks to the strong ethical commitment from our more than 15,000 team
members around the world, we are proud to have earned the title of one
of the World’s Most Ethical Companies for the fourth consecutive year,”
said Wilson R. Jones, Oshkosh Corporation president and chief executive
officer. “Being honored to this prestigious list once again underscores
our unwavering focus on doing the right thing in everything that we do.”

“Today, employees, investors and stakeholders are putting their greatest
trust in companies to take leadership on societal issues. Companies that
take the long view with a purpose-based strategy are proven to not only
outperform but last,” said Ethisphere’s Chief Executive Officer, Timothy
Erblich. “I congratulate everyone at Oshkosh Corporation for earning
this recognition.”

Methodology & Scoring

The World's Most Ethical Companies assessment is based upon the
Ethisphere Institute’s Ethics
Quotient^® (EQ) framework, which offers a quantitative way
to assess a company’s performance in an objective, consistent and
standardized manner. The information collected provides a comprehensive
sampling of definitive criteria of core competencies rather than all
aspects of corporate governance, risk, sustainability, compliance and
ethics.

Scores are generated in five key categories: ethics and compliance
program (35 percent), culture of ethics (20 percent), corporate
citizenship and responsibility (20 percent), governance (15 percent) and
leadership and reputation (10 percent). All companies that participate
in the assessment process receive their scores, providing them with
valuable insights into how they stack up against leading organizations.
