“While we are excited about the opportunities ahead, we remain acutely aware of the headwinds facing consumers and the industry more broadly. I am confident that this team will once again bring its operational prowess to navigate the current environment, while at the same time, advancing our innovation and product development, manufacturing and vertical integration footprint, and operational excellence initiatives to ensure we once again emerge stronger as market conditions improve,” continued Mr. Springer.

First Quarter Fiscal 2024 Results (Unaudited)

	Three Months Ended September 30,
		2023				2022
	(Dollars In Thousands)
Net Sales	$	255,830			$	302,211
Gross Profit	$	56,794			$	74,605
Gross Profit Margin		22.2	%			24.7	%
Net Income	$	20,770			$	36,105
Net Income Margin		8.1	%			11.9	%
Adjusted EBITDA	$	38,988			$	57,060

Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $46.4 million, or 15.3%, to $255.8 million as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in net sales was driven primarily by decreased unit volumes across all segments resulting primarily from decreased retail demand and increased dealer flooring program costs across all segments resulting from higher interest rates and increased inventory levels, partially offset by a favorable model mix across all segments and inflation-driven year-over-year price increases. Unit volume for the three months ended September 30, 2023, decreased 539 units, or 24.1%, to 1,698 units as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. Our unit volume decreased primarily due to lower wholesale shipments across all segments driven by lower retail activity during the period.

Net sales attributable to our Malibu segment decreased $40.2 million, or 27.7%, to $105.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. Unit volumes attributable to our Malibu segment decreased 414 units for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to lower wholesale shipments driven by lower retail activity during the period. The decrease in net sales was driven by a decrease in units and increased dealer flooring program costs, partially offset by a favorable model mix and inflation-driven year-over-year price increases.

Net sales attributable to our Saltwater Fishing segment increased $0.4 million, or 0.4%, to $92.6 million, for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. Unit volume decreased 57 units for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in net sales was driven by inflation-driven year-over-year price increases and a favorable model mix, partially offset by a decrease in units and increased dealer flooring program costs.

Net sales attributable to our Cobalt segment decreased $6.6 million, or 10.2%, to $58.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. Unit volumes attributable to Cobalt decreased 68 units for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in net sales was driven primarily by a decrease in units and increased dealer flooring program costs, partially offset by a favorable model mix and inflation-driven year-over-year price increases.

Overall consolidated net sales per unit increased 11.5% to $150,665 per unit for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. Net sales per unit for our Malibu segment increased 9.6% to $130,603 per unit for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022, driven by a favorable model mix and inflation-driven year-over-year price increases, partially offset by increased dealer flooring program costs. Net sales per unit for our Saltwater Fishing segment increased 12.1% to $188,640 per unit for the three months ended September 30, 2023 driven by a favorable model mix and inflation-driven year-over-year price increases, partially offset by increased dealer flooring program costs. Net sales per unit for our Cobalt segment increased 5.0% to $144,424 per unit for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022, driven by a favorable model mix and inflation-driven year-over-year price increases, partially offset by increased dealer flooring program costs.

Cost of sales for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $28.6 million, or 12.6%, to $199.0 million as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in cost of sales was primarily driven by a 15.3% decrease in net sales due to lower unit volumes, partially offset by higher per unit material and labor costs of $7.5 million, $7.1 million, and $2.5 million for the Malibu, Saltwater Fishing and Cobalt segments, respectively. The increase in per unit material and labor costs was primarily driven by increased prices due to inflationary pressures and a favorable model mix that corresponds to higher net sales per unit in our Malibu and Cobalt segments, partially offset by unfavorable model mix in our Saltwater Fishing segment.

Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $17.8 million, or 23.9%, to $56.8 million compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in gross profit was driven primarily by lower net sales partially offset by the decreased cost of sales for the reasons noted above. Gross margin for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased 250 basis points from 24.7% to 22.2% driven primarily by increased mix of the Saltwater Fishing segment and increased dealer flooring program costs.

Selling and marketing expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased $0.6 million, or 10.9% to $5.8 million compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was driven primarily by increased promotional events and an increase in personnel-related expenses. As a percentage of sales, selling and marketing expenses increased 50 basis points to 2.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to 1.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2022. General and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased $1.5 million, or 7.7%, to $20.7 million as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022 driven primarily by an increase in personnel-related expenses. As a percentage of sales, general and administrative expenses increased 170 basis points to 8.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to 6.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Amortization expense remained flat at $1.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023.

Operating income for the first quarter of fiscal year 2024 decreased to $28.6 million from $48.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2023. Net income for the first quarter of fiscal year 2024 decreased 42.5% to $20.8 million from $36.1 million and net income margin decreased to 8.1% from 11.9% in the first quarter of fiscal year 2023. Adjusted EBITDA in the first quarter of fiscal year 2024 decreased 31.7% to $39.0 million from $57.1 million, while Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased to 15.2% from 18.9% in the first quarter of fiscal year 2023.

Fiscal 2024 Guidance

For the fiscal full year 2024, Malibu anticipates net sales decline percentage in the high teens to low twenties year-over-year and Adjusted EBITDA margin down 350-450 basis points year-over-year.

The Company has not provided reconciliations of guidance for Adjusted EBITDA margin, in reliance on the unreasonable efforts exception provided under Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Regulation S-K. The Company is unable, without unreasonable efforts, to forecast certain items required to develop meaningful comparable GAAP financial measures. These items include costs related to the Company’s vertical integration initiatives that are difficult to predict in advance in order to include in a GAAP estimate.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This release includes the following financial measures defined as non-GAAP financial measures by the Securities and Exchange Commission: Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Fully Distributed Net Income and Adjusted Fully Distributed Net Income per Share. These measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income as determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) or as an indicator of our liquidity. Our presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures should also not be construed as an inference that our results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. Our computations of these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and non-cash, non-recurring or non-operating expenses, including certain professional fees and non-cash compensation expense. We define Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are not measures of net income as determined by GAAP. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin allow investors to evaluate our operating performance and compare our results of operations from period to period on a consistent basis by excluding items that management does not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA to assist in highlighting trends in our operating results without regard to our financing methods, capital structure, and non-recurring or non-operating expenses. We exclude the items listed above from net income in arriving at Adjusted EBITDA because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within our industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures, the methods by which assets were acquired and other factors.

Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing a company’s financial performance, such as a company’s cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historical costs of depreciable assets.

We define Adjusted Fully Distributed Net Income as net income attributable to Malibu Boats, Inc. (i) excluding income tax expense, (ii) excluding the effect of non-recurring or non-cash items, (iii) assuming the exchange of all LLC units into shares of Class A Common Stock, which results in the elimination of non-controlling interest in Malibu Boats Holdings, LLC (the "LLC"), and (iv) reflecting an adjustment for income tax expense on fully distributed net income before income taxes at our estimated effective income tax rate. Adjusted Fully Distributed Net Income is a non-GAAP financial measure because it represents net income attributable to Malibu Boats, Inc., before non-recurring or non-cash items and the effects of non-controlling interests in the LLC. We use Adjusted Fully Distributed Net Income 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 GAAP, provides a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business than GAAP measures alone. We believe Adjusted Fully Distributed Net Income assists our board of directors, management and investors in comparing our net income on a consistent basis from period to period because it removes non-cash or non-recurring items, and eliminates the variability of non-controlling interest as a result of member owner exchanges of LLC units into shares of Class A Common Stock. In addition, because Adjusted Fully Distributed Net Income is susceptible to varying calculations, the Adjusted Fully Distributed Net Income measures, as presented in this release, may differ from and may, therefore, not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

A reconciliation of our net income as determined in accordance with GAAP to Adjusted EBITDA and the numerator and denominator for our net income available to Class A Common Stock per share to Adjusted Fully Distributed Net Income per share of Class A Common Stock is provided under "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures".
