MasterCraft Boat Holdings, Inc. Reports Fiscal 2023 Third Quarter Results

VONORE, Tenn., May 10, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MasterCraft Boat Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: MCFT) today announced financial results for its fiscal 2023 third quarter ended April 2, 2023.

Highlights:

Unless otherwise indicated, the highlights and commentary provided herein relate to our continuing operations, which exclude the NauticStar segment results reported as discontinued operations.

  • Net sales for the third quarter were $166.8 million, down 1.5% from the prior-year period
  • Net income from continuing operations was $22.8 million, or $1.28 per diluted share, down 6.3% and 2.3%, respectively, from the prior-year period
  • Diluted Adjusted Net Income per share, a non-GAAP measure, was $1.36, which equaled our record in the prior-year period
  • Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, was $33.0 million, down 5.8% from the prior-year period
  • Record operating cash flow due to strong earnings and diligent working capital management
  • Share repurchases of $7.0 million during the quarter

Fred Brightbill, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, commented, “Our business has performed extremely well through the fiscal third quarter, delivering financial results which have exceeded expectations. Adjusted diluted net income per share tied our record from last year for the best fiscal third quarter in the Company’s history. Our exceptional operating results and diligent working capital management also continued into the third quarter, resulting in record operating cash flow.”

Brightbill continued, “During the quarter, we achieved our goal of refilling dealer inventories to optimal levels ahead of the summer selling season. Despite near-term macroeconomic headwinds, retail activity has performed closer to the upper end of our range of expectations through our fiscal third quarter. Our robust portfolio of innovative products and healthy dealer inventory levels position us to capitalize on the summer selling season. Additionally, our fortress balance sheet provides us with abundant financial flexibility to pursue our capital allocation priorities, first and foremost of which is investment in growth. We are laying the foundation for future growth by actively investing in targeted initiatives designed to take advantage of the strong underlying secular industry trends.”

Third Quarter Results

Unless otherwise indicated, the financial results provided herein relate to our continuing operations, which exclude the NauticStar segment results reported as discontinued operations.

For the third quarter of fiscal 2023, MasterCraft Boat Holdings, Inc. reported consolidated net sales of $166.8 million, down $2.6 million from the third quarter of fiscal 2022. The net sales decrease reflects changes in model mix, decreased sales volumes, increased dealer incentives, and decreased options and content sales, partially offset by higher prices. Dealer incentives include higher floor plan financing costs and other incentives as a result of increased dealer inventories and interest rates.

Gross profit decreased $1.5 million and gross profit margin decreased 50 basis points in the third quarter of fiscal 2023 from the third quarter of fiscal 2022. The decreased margin was mainly due to higher costs from inflationary pressures, changes in model mix, higher dealer incentives, and increased warranty costs, partially offset by higher prices and improved production efficiencies.

Operating expenses increased $1.1 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2023, compared to the prior-year period primarily as a result of increased boat show related costs and investments in digital marketing.

Net income from continuing operations was $22.8 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2023, compared to $24.3 million in the prior-year period. Diluted net income from continuing operations per share was $1.28, compared to $1.31 for the third quarter of fiscal 2022.

Adjusted Net Income was $24.1 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2023, or $1.36 per diluted share, compared to $25.1 million, or $1.36 per diluted share, in the prior-year period. Adjusted net income per diluted share was flat as a result of reduced weighted average share count and short-term investment income.

Adjusted EBITDA was $33.0 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2023, compared to $35.0 million in the prior-year period. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 19.8 percent for the third quarter, down from 20.7 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, “We are raising our guidance for the full year based on our strong performance and incremental retail demand visibility. Based on retail sales results through our fiscal third quarter and the general expectation that the onset of a potential downturn has been pushed into fiscal 2024, we now expect retail demand to perform closer to the high end of our range of expectations. We believe these conditions will allow us to achieve full-year wholesale unit sales at the upper end of our range of scenarios.”

The Company’s outlook is as follows:

  • For full year fiscal 2023, consolidated net sales is now expected to be approximately $656 million, with Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $125 million, and Adjusted Earnings per share of approximately $5.05. We continue to expect capital expenditures to be approximately $30 million for the full year.

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, these adjustments include share-based compensation, business development consulting costs, and goodwill impairment. 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, share-based compensation, business development consulting costs, and goodwill impairment.

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;
  • The Non-GAAP Measures do not reflect our tax expense or any cash requirements to pay income taxes;
  • The 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.

The following table presents a reconciliation of net income from continuing operations as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, and net income from continuing operations margin to EBITDA margin and Adjusted EBITDA margin (each expressed as a percentage of net sales) for the periods indicated:
