BUFORD, Ga., Feb. 04, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- OneWater Marine Inc. (NASDAQ: ONEW) (“OneWater” or the “Company”) today announced results for its fiscal first quarter ended December 31, 2020.
“The OneWater team delivered outstanding results in the fiscal first quarter, in what is seasonally the lowest sales quarter of our fiscal year, which highlights the agility of our sales and marketing team and the power of our digital platform. Our VIP and other in-house marketing events were well attended and highly successful, absent select organized boat shows, increasing sales nearly 40% year-over-year as boaters secured new boats in preparation for the upcoming boating season. With tight inventory across the industry, we worked to ensure customers had access to our nationwide inventory to select the boat they desired,” commented Austin Singleton, Chief Executive Officer at OneWater.
“We’ve had an eventful start to fiscal 2021 including closing on three of the largest acquisitions in OneWater history. These acquisitions historically generated in excess of $125 million in revenue on an annual basis and we are focused on integrating these businesses into the OneWater family and leveraging our successful post-acquisition playbook to implement improvements and introduce best practices. Our liquidity is strong, and we remain committed to executing our multi-tiered growth strategy through acquisitions and the expansion of our high-margin business, further driving long-term shareholder value,” Mr. Singleton concluded.

Fiscal First Quarter 2021 Results
Revenue for the fiscal first quarter 2021 was $214.1 million, an increase of 39.3% compared to $153.7 million in fiscal first quarter 2020, due primarily to a significant increase in new unit sales and a modest increase in the average unit price of new and pre-owned boats. During the fiscal first quarter 2021 same-store sales increased 38% on top of a 17% increase in the comparable period of 2020.
Gross profit totaled $52.4 million for the fiscal first quarter 2021, compared to $32.2 million for the fiscal first quarter 2020. Gross profit margin of 24.5% for the three months ended December 31, 2020 increased 360 basis points compared to the prior year primarily due to a shift in the mix and size of boat models sold, the Company’s focus on dynamic pricing, increases in service, parts & other sales and finance & insurance.
Fiscal first quarter 2021 selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) totaled $34.9 million, or 16.3% of revenue, compared to $28.3 million, or 18.4% of revenue, in the fiscal first quarter of 2020. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue was primarily due to the Company’s ability to leverage its existing expense structure to support the increase in revenue, reduction in selling expenses, including boat shows, partially offset by an increase in public company expenses.
Net income for the fiscal first quarter of 2021 increased sharply to $11.8 million, compared to a net loss of $1.1 million in the fiscal first quarter of 2020. The significant increase was primarily due to higher sales and gross margins on boats sold in the period, an increase in SG&A and a reduction in interest expense.
Fiscal first quarter 2021 Adjusted EBITDA (see reconciliation of Non-GAAP financial measures below) increased to $16.7 million, compared to $1.2 million for the fiscal first quarter of 2020.
As of December 31, 2020, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents balance was $26.0 million, an increase of $15.5 million compared to $10.5 million as of December 31, 2019.
The combined $83.9 million in total purchase price for the recent acquisitions, including the real estate associated with Roscioli Yachting Center, was funded by $47.6 million of cash, $30.0 Million from the Company’s revolving line of credit, $2.1 million in seller notes payable and $4.2 million in estimated acquisition contingent consideration. Subsequent to quarter-end, the Company expanded its Term Loan credit facility by $30 million and used the proceeds to pay down the revolving line of credit. In addition to cash and its revolving line of credit, the Company had additional liquidity under the floor plan credit facility. Total inventory as of December 31, 2020 increased sequentially to $196.1 million compared to $150.1 million on September 30, 2020, primarily due to the anticipated seasonal increase and manufacturer replenishments.
Fiscal Year 2021 Guidance
For fiscal full year 2021, OneWater anticipates same store sales to increase by mid-single digits. Including the three acquisitions that closed in the fiscal first quarter of 2021, the Company now expects Adjusted EBITDA for the full fiscal year to be in the range of $95 million to $100 million and diluted earnings per share to be in the range of $4.00 to $4.20, excluding any additional acquisitions that might be completed during the year.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key Performance Indicators
This press release and our related earnings call contain certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of our operating performance. Management believes these measures may be useful in performing meaningful comparisons of past and present operating results, to understand the performance of the Company’s ongoing operations and how management views the business. Reconciliations of reported GAAP measures to adjusted non-GAAP measures are included in the financial schedules contained in this press release. These measures, however, should not be construed as an alternative to any other measure of performance determined in accordance with GAAP. Because our non-GAAP financial measures may be defined differently by other companies, our definition of these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing its utility. We have not reconciled non‐GAAP forward-looking measures, including Adjusted EBITDA guidance, to their corresponding GAAP measures due to the high variability and difficulty in making accurate forecasts and projections, particularly with respect to acquisition contingent consideration and transaction costs. Acquisition contingent consideration and transaction costs are affected by the acquisition, integration and post-acquisition performance of our acquirees which is difficult to predict and subject to change. Accordingly, reconciliations of forward looking Adjusted EBITDA is not available without unreasonable effort.
Adjusted EBITDA
We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense – other, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization and other (income) expense, further adjusted to eliminate the effects of items such as the change in the fair value of warrant liability, gain (loss) on contingent consideration, gain (loss) on extinguishment of debt and transaction costs. See reconciliation below.
Our board of directors, management team and lenders use Adjusted EBITDA to assess our financial performance because it allows them to compare our operating performance on a consistent basis across periods by removing the effects of our capital structure (such as varying levels of interest expense), asset base (such as depreciation and amortization) and other items (such as the fair value adjustment of the warrants, gain or loss on contingent consideration, gain or loss on extinguishment of debt and transaction costs) that impact the comparability of financial results from period to period. We present Adjusted EBITDA because we believe it provides useful information regarding the factors and trends affecting our business in addition to measures calculated under GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is not a financial measure presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe that the presentation of this non-GAAP financial measure will provide useful information to investors and analysts in assessing our financial performance and results of operations across reporting periods by excluding items we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance.
Same-Store Sales
We define same-store sales as sales from our stores excluding new and acquired stores. New and acquired stores become eligible for inclusion in the comparable store base at the end of the store’s thirteenth month of operations under our ownership and revenues are only included for identical months in the same-store base periods. Stores relocated within an existing market remain in the comparable store base for all periods. Additionally, amounts related to closed stores are excluded from each comparative base period. We use same-store sales to assess the organic growth of our revenue on a same-store basis. We believe that our assessment on a same-store basis represents an important indicator of comparative financial results and provides relevant information to assess our performance.
Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements
This press release and statements made during the above referenced conference call may contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including regarding our strategy, future operations, financial position, prospects, plans and objectives of management, growth rate and its expectations regarding future revenue, operating income or loss or earnings or loss per share.

These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, but are based on management's current expectations, assumptions and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effect on us, which are inherently subject to uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Our expectations expressed or implied in these forward-looking statements may not turn out to be correct.
