MasterCraft Boat Holdings, Inc. Reports Results for Fiscal 2024 Second Quarter

VONORE, Tenn., Feb. 07, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MasterCraft Boat Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: MCFT) today announced financial results for its fiscal 2024 second quarter ended December 31, 2023.

The highlights, commentary, and results provided herein relate to our continuing operations.

Highlights:

  • Net sales for the second quarter was $99.5 million, down 37.5% from the prior-year period
  • Net income from continuing operations was $5.9 million, or $0.35 per diluted share
  • Diluted Adjusted Net Income per share, a non-GAAP measure, was $0.37, down 69.2% from the prior-year period
  • Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, was $9.8 million, down 67.2% from the prior-year period
  • Share repurchases of $4.4 million during the quarter
  • Ended the quarter with cash and investments of $108.8 million

Fred Brightbill, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, commented, “Our business performed well during the second quarter by exceeding previously issued guidance, despite continuing macroeconomic uncertainty and a highly competitive retail environment. Near-term, we remain focused on rebalancing dealer inventories with anticipated retail demand. As we anticipate moving beyond inventory rebalancing, we are prudently investing in targeted initiatives that will take advantage of the industry’s positive, underlying secular trends and accelerate our growth. Soon we will be launching a new pontoon brand built in our Crest facility. This new brand is an example of why we are confident in our ability to deliver long-term growth for our shareholders.”

Brightbill continued, “We continue to exercise a disciplined approach to capital allocation. Year-to-date, we have generated $19.2 million of cash flow from operations and our strong balance sheet provides us with the financial flexibility to pursue our strategic growth initiatives while also returning excess cash to shareholders. During the quarter, we spent approximately $4.4 million to repurchase more than 214,000 shares of our common stock. Since initiating our share repurchase program in June 2021, we have repurchased $58.6 million of our common stock and reduced our shares outstanding by more than twelve percent.”

Second Quarter Results

For the second quarter of fiscal 2024, MasterCraft Boat Holdings, Inc. reported consolidated net sales of $99.5 million, down $59.7 million from the second quarter of fiscal 2023. The decrease in net sales is due to lower unit volume and an increase in dealer incentives, partially offset by higher prices and favorable mix and options. Dealer incentives include higher floor plan financing costs as a result of increased dealer inventories and interest rates, and other incentives as the retail environment remains competitive.

Gross margin percentage declined 520 basis points during the second quarter of fiscal 2024, when compared to the same prior-year period. Lower margins were the result of lower cost absorption due to planned decreased sales volume, higher dealer incentives, and higher costs related to material, labor and overhead inflation, partially offset by higher prices.

Operating expenses were relatively consistent for the second quarter of fiscal 2024, compared to the prior-year period. In pursuit of growth initiatives, we continue to invest in product development and marketing.

Net income from continuing operations was $5.9 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2024, compared to $20.0 million in the prior-year period. Diluted net income from continuing operations per share was $0.35, compared to $1.12 for the second quarter of fiscal 2023.

Adjusted Net Income decreased to $6.3 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2024, or $0.37 per diluted share, compared to $21.3 million, or $1.20 per diluted share, in the prior-year period.

Adjusted EBITDA was $9.8 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2024, compared to $29.8 million in the prior-year period. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 9.8 percent for the second quarter, down from 18.7 percent for the prior-year period.

See “Non-GAAP Measures” below for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Net Income per share to the most directly comparable financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP.

Outlook

Concluded Brightbill, “Views regarding the economic outlook remain mixed and uncertain, which is limiting retail demand visibility. The retail environment has become increasingly competitive as industry participants react to lower demand and higher inventory levels. The resulting increase in promotional activity will likely pressure margins across the industry. We continue to monitor retail results, assess the overall business and economic environment, and accordingly adjust our production and shipment plan. We expect to have a clearer picture of retail demand as we progress through the third and fourth quarters.”

The Company’s outlook is as follows:

  • Looking forward, we are narrowing our guidance range for the full year. Consolidated net sales is now expected to be between $400 million and $412 million, with Adjusted EBITDA between $42 million and $47 million, and Adjusted Earnings per share between $1.53 and $1.78. We expect capital expenditures to be approximately $20 million for the full year.
  • For the third quarter of fiscal 2024, consolidated net sales is expected to be approximately $92 million, with Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $7 million, and Adjusted Earnings per share of approximately $0.23.

Non-GAAP Measures

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA margin, and Adjusted EBITDA margin

We define EBITDA as net income from continuing operations, before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA further adjusted to eliminate certain non-cash charges or other items that we do not consider to be indicative of our core and/or ongoing operations. For the periods presented herein, the adjustment includes share-based compensation. We define EBITDA margin and Adjusted EBITDA margin as EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, respectively, each expressed as a percentage of Net sales.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income per share

We define Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income per share as net income from continuing operations, adjusted to eliminate certain non-cash charges or other items that we do not consider to be indicative of our core and/or ongoing operations and reflecting income tax expense on adjusted net income before income taxes at our estimated annual effective tax rate. For the periods presented herein, these adjustments include other intangible asset amortization and share-based compensation.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Net Income per share, which we refer to collectively as the Non-GAAP Measures, are not measures of net income or operating income as determined under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or U.S. GAAP. The Non-GAAP Measures are not measures of performance in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, net income per share, or operating cash flows determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of cash flow. We believe that the inclusion of the Non-GAAP Measures is appropriate to provide additional information to investors because securities analysts and investors use the Non-GAAP Measures to assess our operating performance across periods on a consistent basis and to evaluate the relative risk of an investment in our securities. We use Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income per share to facilitate a comparison of our operating performance on a consistent basis from period to period that, when viewed in combination with our results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, provides a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business than does U.S. GAAP measures alone. We believe Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income per share assists our board of directors, management, investors, and other users of the financial statements in comparing our net income on a consistent basis from period to period because it removes certain non-cash items and other items that we do not consider to be indicative of our core and/or ongoing operations and reflecting income tax expense on adjusted net income before income taxes at our estimated annual effective tax rate. The Non-GAAP Measures have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

  • Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future and the Non-GAAP Measures do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;
  • The Non-GAAP Measures do not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
  • The Non-GAAP Measures do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
  • Certain Non-GAAP Measures do not reflect our tax expense or any cash requirements to pay income taxes;
  • Certain Non-GAAP Measures do not reflect interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest payments on our indebtedness; and
  • The Non-GAAP Measures do not reflect the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters we do not consider to be indicative of our core and/or ongoing operations, but may nonetheless have a material impact on our results of operations.

In addition, because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of the Non-GAAP Measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, including companies in our industry.

Beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2023, due to the effects of discontinued operations, as discussed above, the Company's non-GAAP financial measures are presented on a continuing operations basis, for all periods presented.

We do not provide forward-looking guidance for certain financial measures on a U.S. GAAP basis because we are unable to predict certain items contained in the U.S. GAAP measures without unreasonable efforts. These items may include acquisition-related costs, litigation charges or settlements, impairment charges, and certain other unusual adjustments.
