Quarterly Report for Quarter Ending December 28, 2025 (Form 10-Q)

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

The following discussion and analysis should be read together with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In addition, the statements in this discussion and analysis regarding our expectations concerning the performance of our business, anticipated financial results, liquidity and the other non-historical statements are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, the risks and uncertainties described in "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" above and in "Risk Factors" set forth in our 2025 Annual Report. Our actual results may differ materially from those contained in or implied by any forward-looking statements.

Certain statements in the following discussions are based on non-GAAP financial measures. A "non-GAAP financial measure" is a numerical measure of a registrant's historical or future financial performance, financial position or cash flows that excludes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding amounts, that are included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP in the statements of operations, balance sheets or statements of cash flows of the issuer; or includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of including amounts, that are excluded from the most directly comparable measure so calculated and presented. Non-GAAP financial measures do not include operating and statistical measures. The Company includes non-GAAP financial measures in Management's Discussion and Analysis, as the Company's management believes that these measures and the information they provide are useful to users of the financial statements, including investors, because they permit users of the financial statements to view the Company's performance using the same tools that management utilizes and to better evaluate the Company's ongoing business performance. In order to better align the Company's reported results with the internal metrics used by the Company's management to evaluate business performance as well as to provide better comparisons to prior periods and peer data, non-GAAP measures exclude the impact of purchase accounting amortization related to business acquisitions.

Overview

The Company's results for all periods presented, as discussed in Management's Discussion and Analysis, are presented on a continuing operations basis, which consists of our MasterCraft and Pontoon segments.

Subsequent Events

On February 5, 2026, the Company announced that it had entered into the Marine Products Transaction. The Marine Products Transaction is expected to close during the first half of calendar year 2026, subject to approval by both the Company's and Marine Products' shareholders and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions.

The Company simultaneously executed the Fifth Amendment to the Credit Agreement. The Fifth Amendment reduces the aggregate revolving commitments from $100.0 million to $75.0 million and will mature, with all remaining amounts outstanding thereunder due and payable on February 5, 2031.

Results of Operations

Amid continuing macroeconomic challenges, the Company delivered increased net sales of $8.4 million and increased gross margin of 440 basis points for the second quarter of fiscal 2026, when compared with the same prior-year period. This increase was primarily driven by favorable model mix and option sales, higher unit volumes, and increased prices, while maintaining effective cost controls.

Net sales increased $8.4 million and $12.0 million during the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2026, respectively, when compared with the same prior year periods. The increase in net sales was driven by favorable model mix and option sales, higher unit volumes, and increased prices.

Gross margin percentage increased 440 basis points during both the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2026, when compared with the same prior year periods. Higher margins were primarily the result of increased net sales, as discussed above, combined with effective cost controls.

Operating expenses increased $2.1 million and $2.9 million during the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2026, respectively, when compared with the same prior year periods, due to ERP implementation costs, business development and consulting costs related to the Marine Products Transaction, and increased selling and marketing costs.

Non-GAAP Measures

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

We define EBITDA as 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 adjustments are for share-based compensation, senior leadership transition and organizational realignment costs, ERP implementation costs, and business development and consulting costs. 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 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, senior leadership transition and organizational realignment costs, ERP implementation costs, and business development and consulting costs.

Free Cash Flow

We define Free Cash Flow from continuing operations as net cash flows from operating activities less purchases of property, plant, and equipment.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Income per share, and Free Cash Flow, which we refer to collectively as the Non-GAAP Measures, are not measures of net income, operating income, or net operating cash flows 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 net 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, 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;
•
Certain Non-GAAP measures do not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
•
Certain 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
•
Certain 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.

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

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary liquidity and capital resource needs are to finance working capital, fund capital expenditures, service debt, fund potential acquisitions, and fund our share repurchase program. Our principal sources of liquidity are our cash balance, short-term investments, cash generated from operating activities, our revolving credit agreement and the refinancing and/or new issuance of long-term debt. We believe our cash balance, short-term investments, cash from operations, and our ability to borrow will be sufficient to provide for our liquidity and capital resource needs.

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $56.2 million as of December 28, 2025, an increase of $27.3 million from $28.9 million as of June 30, 2025. Short-term investments totaled $25.2 million as of December 28, 2025, a decrease of $25.3 million from $50.5 million as of June 30, 2025. As of December 28, 2025, and June 30, 2025, we had no long-term debt outstanding and $100.0 million available borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility.

On July 24, 2023, the Board of the Company authorized a share repurchase program under which the Company may repurchase up to $50 million of its outstanding shares of common stock. During the six months ended December 28, 2025, the Company repurchased 116,370 shares of common stock for $2.3 million in cash, excluding related fees and expenses.

Six Months Ended December 28, 2025 Cash Flows from Continuing Operations

Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended December 28, 2025 was $8.6 million, primarily due to net income, partially offset by working capital usage. Working capital is defined as accounts receivable, income tax receivable, inventories, and prepaid expenses and other current assets net of accounts payable, income tax payable, and accrued expenses and other current liabilities as presented in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Working capital usage primarily consisted of a decrease in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and a decrease in accounts payable, partially offset by a decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets. Accrued expenses and other current liabilities decreased due to timing of payments for dealer incentives and variable compensation. Accounts payable decreased due to timing of inventory related purchases at the end of the period compared to the prior-year period. Prepaid expenses and other current assets decreased due to amortization of insurance premiums.

Net cash provided by investing activities was $20.9 million, which included $25.6 million of net proceeds in available-for-sale securities, partially offset by $4.7 million in capital expenditures.

Six Months Ended December 29, 2024 Cash Flows from Continuing Operations

Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended December 29, 2024 was $13.4 million, primarily due to net income and favorable changes to working capital. Favorable changes in working capital primarily consisted of decreases in accounts receivable and prepaid expenses and other current assets. Partially offsetting favorable changes in working capital were decreases in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and in accounts payables. Accounts receivable decreased due to timing of sales at the end of the period compared to the end of the prior-year period. Prepaid and other current assets decreased due to amortization of insurance premiums. Accrued expenses and other current liabilities decreased due to payment of dealer incentives and variable compensation. Accounts payables decreased due to timing associated with the holiday season.
