VONORE, Tenn., May 09, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MasterCraft Boat Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: MCFT) (the “Company” or “MasterCraft Boat Holdings”), a leading innovator, designer, manufacturer and marketer of recreational powerboats through its three wholly-owned subsidiaries, MasterCraft Boat Company, LLC (“MasterCraft”), NauticStar, LLC (“NauticStar”), and Crest Marine LLC (“Crest”), today announced financial results for its fiscal 2019 third quarter ended March 31, 2019.
Highlights:
- Fiscal third quarter results include financial results from the Crest acquisition that closed on October 1, 2018.
- Net sales for the third quarter increased to $128.4 million, up 36.9 percent from $93.8 million in the prior-year period.
- Third quarter gross profit rose to $31.4 million, up 28.6 percent from $24.4 million in the prior-year period.
- Net income totaled $12.8 million for the fiscal 2019 third quarter, a gain of $1.3 million, or 11.4 percent, from the prior-year period.
- Diluted earnings per share increased in the fiscal 2019 third quarter by $0.07, up 11.5 percent, to $0.68, from the prior-year period.
- Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, grew 25.0 percent to $21.9 million from $17.5 million in the prior-year period.
- Fully diluted Adjusted Net Income per share, a non-GAAP measure, grew $0.19, or 32.2 percent, in the third quarter of fiscal 2019, to $0.78, up from $0.59 in the prior-year period.
- Year-to-date the company made debt payments of $29.0 million, enabled by its strong cash generation.
Terry McNew, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We delivered strong financial results in our fiscal third quarter, once again achieving record levels of net sales and profitability. We continue to see strong retail and wholesale momentum in our core MasterCraft brand driven by our strong product portfolio and the underlying strength in the broader performance sport boat segment. The integration of our newest brand, Crest, is ahead of plan and we are seeing the benefits of our industry-leading operational excellence through increased capacity and enhanced working capital efficiencies. Importantly, this additional capacity to support future long-term growth at Crest has come with virtually no capital expenditures.
“At NauticStar, we saw continued financial improvements this quarter, with a sequential increase in gross margins compared to our fiscal second quarter. Our product development strategy of pivoting NauticStar’s portfolio to higher-margin, larger product continues to be a primary focus, and is validated by the current softness in retail demand being experienced across the mid-line, smaller product category. We will more fully realize the financial benefits from this strategy as these larger products become a larger percentage of our mix over the next several years.”
McNew continued, “Throughout our fiscal third quarter, we saw retail activity slowly gain momentum and we remain comfortable with inventory levels across all our brands, despite challenging domestic weather conditions and their impact on retail demand coming out of the boat shows. We believe the upcoming retail season will be solid, driven by the resilience of the U.S. economy, the strength of our product portfolio and premier dealer partners.
“As we look to close out fiscal 2019, our focus will be on continuing to leverage our strengths in operational excellence and financial management to further improve output, quality, margins and cash flow across all of our brands, and enter fiscal 2020 well positioned to continue our rapid growth with the addition of Aviara to our powerful brand portfolio.”
Third Quarter Results
Total net sales for the fiscal third quarter were $128.4 million, reflecting an increase of $34.6 million, or 36.9 percent, compared to $93.8 million for the prior-year period. The Crest acquisition added $27.3 million of net sales in the third quarter. MasterCraft’s net sales increased 14.7 percent, or $10.2 million, driven by an 8.0 percent increase in unit volume, favorable product mix, a reduction in retail rebate expense due to strong year-to-date retail performance and the timing impact from the new revenue recognition standard adopted beginning in fiscal year 2019. MasterCraft’s unit volume increased despite one week of production being shifted from the fiscal third quarter into the fiscal second quarter due to the timing of the planned, annual holiday shutdown. The increase in net sales was partially offset by higher sales discounts given to Canadian and European dealers impacted by the retaliatory import tariffs.
Said McNew, “We are pleased with the recent announcement that the retaliatory tariffs in Canada have been rescinded, and we look forward to a resolution of the European retaliatory tariffs that continue to affect the powerboat industry. As we’ve previously disclosed, our strategic decision to partially offset the import tariff for our Canadian and European dealers continues to provide us with a competitive advantage in the marketplace, and demonstrates the commitment we’ve made to drive our dealers to long-term success.”
NauticStar’s net sales decreased 11.8 percent, or $2.9 million, to $21.7 million due to lower wholesale units driven by a slowdown in the retail demand for NauticStar’s small boats, partially offset by favorable model mix as the organization introduces larger models at higher price points.
Fiscal third quarter gross profit increased $7.0 million, or 28.6 percent, to $31.4 million compared to $24.4 million for the prior-year period. The inclusion of Crest accounted for $4.7 million of the increase, while MasterCraft contributed $3.8 million. NauticStar’s gross profit declined $1.5 million. On a consolidated basis, gross margin decreased to 24.4 percent for the fiscal third quarter compared to 26.0 percent for the prior-year period. The decrease was primarily due to the dilutive effect from the inclusion of Crest. Excluding the impact of Crest, gross margin increased year-over-year to 26.4 percent from 26.0 percent driven by growth in higher margin MasterCraft unit sales, lower retail sales incentives due to strong year-to-date retail performance and the timing impact from the new revenue recognition standard, favorable product mix, and price increases at both MasterCraft and NauticStar. The increase was partially offset by the strategic decision to offset a portion of the retaliatory import tariffs impacting our Canadian and European dealers.
Operating expenses for the fiscal third quarter increased $3.7 million, or 40.4 percent, to $12.9 million, compared to $9.2 million for the prior-year period. This increase was mainly due to the inclusion of Crest and start-up costs associated with our new Aviara brand. Excluding the Aviara brand start-up costs of $0.9 million and $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, and April 1, 2018, respectively, operating expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased for the third quarter compared to the prior-year third quarter.
Third quarter net income totaled $12.8 million, versus $11.5 million for the year-earlier period principally driven by the inclusion of Crest. Adjusted Net Income of $14.6 million, or $0.78 per share, on a fully diluted, weighted average share count of 18.8 million shares, was computed using the company’s estimated annual effective tax rate of approximately 22.5 percent versus 29.0 percent in the prior period. This compares to Adjusted Net Income of $11.1 million, or $0.59 per fully diluted share, in the prior-year period.
Adjusted EBITDA was $21.9 million for the fiscal third quarter, compared to $17.5 million in the prior-year period. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 17.0 percent, down from 18.7 percent in the fiscal 2018 third quarter principally due to the inclusion of Crest.
See “Non-GAAP Measures” below for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Adjusted Net Income to the most directly comparable financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP.
Fiscal 2019 Outlook
Said McNew, “Our year-to-date performance gives us confidence in our ability to deliver a strong finish to fiscal 2019. We will be prudent in managing all our brands during the all-important April, May and June selling season. Our goal is to maintain healthy dealer inventory levels through the end of fiscal 2019 to ensure we are well positioned to execute on the strong growth initiatives we have planned for fiscal 2020. With that in mind, we are reaffirming our previously provided full year fiscal 2019 guidance.”
The Company reaffirmed its fiscal 2019 outlook as follows:
- Net Sales - low 40 percent net sales growth over fiscal 2018, driven by a higher contribution from the Crest acquisition.
- Adjusted EBITDA margins - mid-to-high 16 percent range, reflecting the inclusion of Crest, which is dilutive to margins.
- Adjusted earnings per share - growth in the low 30 percent range.
This guidance is adjusted for non-GAAP measures, including acquisition-related expenses, acquisition-related intangible amortization and a 22.5 percent estimated annual effective tax rate (see “Non-GAAP Measures” below for more detail).
Concluded McNew, “Regarding our new Aviara brand, we could not have been more pleased by the reception and feedback we received from our exclusive dealer partner, MarineMax, retail customers and industry experts about the AV 32 models debuted at the Miami Boat Show in February. Aviara’s financial results will be reported in our MasterCraft reporting segment starting in fiscal 2020 given Aviara will be manufactured out of the same award-winning facility, utilizing the same dedicated employees and proven management team as MasterCraft. Given our track-record of operational excellence, and experience building larger product in the outboard and sterndrive luxury day boat market, we believe this new brand will generate strong returns on investment and drive incremental free cash flow for many years to come.
“Our preliminary expectation for Aviara’s net sales contribution in our fiscal 2020 is $10 – 15 million, with additional runway in future years as we recognize the full benefit of future models to be released at the Ft. Lauderdale Boat Show in late calendar 2019. Importantly, Aviara is expected to be slightly accretive to our MasterCraft reporting segment gross margin profile. As is our normal cadence, we will provide full, consolidated fiscal 2020 guidance on our fourth quarter earnings call later this year.”

Non-GAAP Measures
We define EBITDA as earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA further adjusted to eliminate certain non-cash charges and unusual items that we do not consider to be indicative of our ongoing operations, including acquisition related expenses associated with the acquisitions of NauticStar and Crest, our stock-based compensation expense, and start-up costs for our new Aviara brand. We define Adjusted net income as net income adjusted to eliminate certain non-cash charges and unusual items that we do not consider to be indicative of our ongoing operations, such as acquisition expenses associated with the acquisitions of NauticStar and Crest (including intangible amortization associated with the acquisitions, including prior year acquisitions), our stock-based compensation expense, start-up costs for our new Aviara brand and an adjustment for income tax expense at a normalized annual effective tax rate. We define Adjusted EBITDA margin as Adjusted EBITDA expressed as a percentage of net sales. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net income and Adjusted EBITDA margin are not measures of net income or operating income as determined under GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net income are not measures of performance in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income or operating cash flows determined in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of cash flow for management’s discretionary use. We believe that the inclusion of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Adjusted net income is appropriate to provide additional information to investors because securities analysts, noteholders and other investors use these non-GAAP financial 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 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 alone measures. We believe Adjusted 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 and non-recurring items. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net income 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 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 Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;
- Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
- Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
- Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our tax expense or any cash requirements to pay income taxes;
- Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest payments on our indebtedness; and
- Adjusted net income and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters we do not consider to be indicative of our 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 Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net income may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, including companies in our industry.
Furthermore, certain non-GAAP financial measures presented have been provided for comparison purposes only and these non-GAAP financial measures may change in the future based on our calculations and forecasts regarding the interpretation of certain recent changes to U.S. federal income tax law and anticipated impacts on our financial results.
