Supplemental Presentation Posted to the Latham Investor Relations Website

LATHAM, N.Y., Nov. 10, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Latham Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: SWIM) (“Latham” or "the Company"), the largest designer, manufacturer, and marketer of in-ground residential swimming pools in North America, Australia, and New Zealand, today announced financial results for the third quarter and nine months of its fiscal year 2021 ended October 2, 2021.

Third Quarter Fiscal 2021 Highlights:

  • Net sales of $162.0 million, up 27.0% year-over-year
  • Net loss of $11.3 million versus net income of $17.7 million in the prior year period, representing a 7.0% net loss margin
  • Adjusted EBITDA of $36.1 million, up 2.7% year-over-year, representing a 22.3% Adjusted EBITDA margin

Nine Months Fiscal 2021 Highlights:

  • Net sales of $491.6 million, up 68.7% year-over-year
  • Net loss of $56.4 million versus net income of $18.7 million in the prior year period, representing an 11.5% net loss margin
  • Adjusted EBITDA of $112.5 million, up 69.5% year-over-year, representing a 22.9% Adjusted EBITDA margin

“We are pleased with our record sales in this year’s third quarter, which shows that homeowners’ appetite for pool ownership and purchasing our products is strong and growing” said Scott Rajeski, President and Chief Executive Officer of Latham. “Latham achieved this growth despite significant raw material shortages affecting our fiberglass pools, which limited the profit flow-through of our sales growth.”

Mr. Rajeski continued, “I am proud of our team’s resourcefulness in securing new sources of raw material supply, increasing manufacturing capacity, and devising other productivity solutions that will allow us to produce substantially more pools as we move into the fourth quarter and 2022. The actions we are taking, paired with robust consumer demand and our proprietary approach to making pool buying simpler for homeowners, give us confidence in realizing the sales and profit goals that we’ve set for the business.”

Third Quarter Fiscal 2021 Results

Net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2021 increased to $162.0 million, up $34.5 million or 27.0%, from the prior year’s third quarter. The increase was primarily attributable to increased volume, price increases, and the acquisition of GL International, LLC (“GLI”), partially offset by decreased volume in our in-ground swimming pool category because of substantially constrained raw material supplies used in fiberglass pool construction.

Gross profit for the third quarter of fiscal 2021 increased modestly to $51.0 million, up $0.7 million or 1.4%, versus the prior year’s third quarter, mainly because of an increase in net sales, which was partially offset by the addition of non-cash stock-based compensation expense of $1.9 million. Gross margin decreased to 31.5% compared to 39.5% for the prior year period, driven by an adverse sales mix away from our in-ground pool sales, particularly in fiberglass pools; a strategic decision that opened a timing difference between the Company’s price increases and the cost inflation associated with the fiberglass pools, raw material shortages and the operational inefficiencies that accompanied them.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) increased to $48.1 million from $20.1 million in the third quarter of 2020, driven primarily by a $24.7 million increase in stock-based compensation expense to $25.7 million, investments in increased customer-facing personnel to support future growth, increased expenses related to the acquisition of GLI and ongoing public company costs. SG&A as a percent of net sales increased from 15.8% to 29.7%.

Net loss was $11.3 million, or ($0.10) per share compared to net income of $17.7 million, or $0.18 per share, for the prior year’s third quarter, driven primarily by non-cash stock-based compensation expense of $27.6 million. Net loss margin was 7.0% compared to a net income margin of 13.9% for the third quarter of fiscal 2020.

Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of fiscal 2021 was $36.1 million, up $0.9 million or 2.7%, from the prior year’s third quarter. Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased to 22.3% from 27.6% for the prior year period.

Nine Months Fiscal 2021 Results

Net sales for the nine months ended October 2, 2021 increased to $491.6 million, up $200.1 million or 68.7% from the comparable prior year period. The strong sales increase spanned across product lines and was primarily attributable to strong market demand, homeowner preferences for Latham’s products, expanded strategic partnerships within the Company’s network of dealers, and the acquisition of GLI.

Gross profit for the nine months ended October 2, 2021 increased to $161.8 million, up $57.0 million or 54.4%, from the prior year period. Gross margin decreased to 32.9% compared to 35.9% for the prior year period, driven by supply chain headwinds, strategic decisions around re-pricing our order backlog, and stock-based compensation expense.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased to $170.5 million from $50.9 million in the prior year period, driven primarily by an increase of $96.4 million in non-cash stock-based compensation expense to $97.8 million, higher salaries and wages associated with increased customer-facing headcount to support future business growth, as well as the acquisition of GLI and ongoing public company costs. SG&A as a percent of net sales increased to 34.7% from 17.5%.

Net loss was $56.4 million, or ($0.51) per share, for the nine months ended October 2, 2021 compared to a net income of $18.7 million, or $0.19 per share, in the prior year period, driven primarily by non-cash stock-based compensation expense of $104.6 million. Net loss margin for the nine months ended October 2, 2021 was 11.5% compared to a net income margin of 6.4% for the prior year period.

Adjusted EBITDA for the nine months ended October 2, 2021 was $112.5 million, up $46.1 million or 69.5%, from the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA margin for the nine months ended July 3, 2021 remained flat at 22.9% compared to 22.8% for the prior year period.

Balance Sheet, Cash Flow and Liquidity

As of October 2, 2021, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $90.9 million, $30.0 million undrawn on its revolving credit facility, and total debt of $234.2 million.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $29.4 million for the nine months ended October 2, 2021 versus $55.1 million in the prior year period, driven by higher working capital to support sales growth.

Capital expenditures totaled $6.2 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to $3.5 million in the prior year period. The increase in capital spending was primarily related to the Company’s capacity expansion for fiberglass pools. Capital expenditures totaled $19.2 million in the nine months ended October 2, 2021 compared to $9.7 million in the prior year period.

Fiscal 2021 Outlook
Latham affirms its existing net sales and Adjusted EBITDA guidance for the full year fiscal 2021. The Company’s financial outlook reflects its financial results for the first nine months of fiscal 2021; ongoing growth in outdoor living expenditures; execution of its strategic initiatives, including efforts to drive the material conversion to fiberglass; leveraging its unique direct-to-homeowner digital strategies to generate leads for its dealer partners; and ongoing management of supply chain and raw material-related headwinds.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We track our non-GAAP financial measures to monitor and manage our underlying financial performance. This news release includes the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, which are non-GAAP financial measures that exclude the impact of certain costs, losses and gains that are required to be included in our profit and loss measures under GAAP. Although we believe these measures are useful to investors and analysts for the same reasons it is useful to management, as discussed below, these measures are neither a substitute for, nor superior to, U.S. GAAP financial measures or disclosures. Other companies may calculate similarly-titled non-GAAP measures differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. We have reconciled our historic Adjusted EBITDA to the applicable most comparable GAAP measure, net income, throughout this news release.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are key metrics used by management and our board of directors to assess our financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are also frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry, when considered alongside other GAAP measures. We use Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin to supplement GAAP measures of performance to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies, to make budgeting decisions and to compare our performance against that of other companies using similar measures. We have presented Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin solely as supplemental disclosures because we believe they allow for a more complete analysis of results of operations and assist investors and analysts in comparing our operating performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance, such as (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) interest expense, (iii) income tax (benefit) expense, (iv) loss on sale and disposal of property and equipment, (v) restructuring charges, (vi) stock-based compensation expense, (vii) unrealized (gains) losses on foreign currency transactions, (viii) strategic initiative costs, (ix) acquisition and integration related costs, (x) other and (xi) IPO costs.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are non-GAAP financial measures and should not be considered as alternatives to net income as a measure of financial performance or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, and they should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. You are encouraged to evaluate these adjustments and the reasons we consider them appropriate for supplemental analysis. In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in this news release. There can be no assurance that we will not modify the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin following this offering, and any such modification may be material. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin should not be construed to imply that our future results will be unaffected by any such adjustments. In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, may not calculate Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin at all or may calculate Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin differently and accordingly, are not necessarily comparable to similarly entitled measures of other companies, which reduces the usefulness of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin as tools for comparison.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin have their limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin:

  • do not reflect every expenditure, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
  • do not reflect changes in our working capital needs;
  • do not reflect the interest expense, or the amounts necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our outstanding debt;
  • do not reflect income tax (benefit) expense, and because the payment of taxes is part of our operations, tax expense is a necessary element of our costs and ability to operate;
  • do not reflect non-cash equity compensation, which will remain a key element of our overall equity-based compensation package; and
  • do not reflect the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations.

Although depreciation and amortization are eliminated in the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin do not reflect any costs of such replacements.
