VONORE, Tenn., Nov. 07, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MasterCraft Boat Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: MCFT) today announced financial results for its fiscal 2020 first quarter ended September 29, 2019.
First Quarter Highlights:
- Net sales increased to $109.8 million, up 17.2 percent from $93.6 million in the prior-year period.
- GAAP net income was $8.6 million, up slightly from $8.5 million in the prior-year period.
- GAAP diluted earnings per share increased in the first quarter by $0.01, up 2.2 percent to $0.46, from the prior year period.
- Diluted Adjusted Net Income per share, a non-GAAP measure, was $0.53 compared to $0.54 in the prior-year period.
- Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, rose 5.7 percent to $15.9 million from $15.0 million in the prior-year period.
- New luxury day boat brand, Aviara, began selling during the first quarter and is included in our MasterCraft segment results.
Fred Brightbill, interim Chief Executive Officer, commented, “MasterCraft Boat Holdings delivered strong operational results in the fiscal first quarter. The continued successful execution of our operational excellence and product development initiatives across all our brands led to record first-quarter results in net sales and adjusted earnings. Despite a challenging retail demand environment this past summer due principally to bad weather, the combined strength of our brands and improved retail activity in the fiscal first quarter of 2020 led to improved dealer inventory levels at the end of the quarter. We remain on course to drive continued dealer inventory improvements through the boat show season, allowing for healthy dealer pipelines ahead of the peak summer selling season and beyond.”
“As I assume the role of interim CEO, I look forward to working alongside the long-tenured, industry-veteran leadership team and seasoned and dedicated employees at MasterCraft, Aviara, NauticStar and Crest to support them in executing the strategic objectives currently underway,” Brightbill concluded.
First Quarter Results
Net Sales for the first quarter were $109.8 million, an increase of $16.1 million, or 17.2 percent, compared to $93.6 million for the prior-year period. The increase was primarily due to:
- the inclusion of Crest, acquired during the second quarter of 2019, which contributed incremental net sales of $18.9 million;
- a $0.6 million increase for NauticStar driven by higher wholesale average selling prices due to a greater mix of larger products and price increases, partially offset by lower unit sales volumes; and
- a $3.3 million decrease for the MasterCraft segment, primarily due to lower unit sales volumes for our MasterCraft brand as we work to right-size our dealer inventory levels after the weather-impacted summer selling season, partially offset by a richer mix of higher-priced and higher-contented models. The decrease for the MasterCraft brand was partially offset by the start of sales for our new Aviara brand.
Gross profit increased $2.3 million, or 10.0 percent, to $25.5 million compared to $23.2 million for the prior-year period. The increase was primarily due to the inclusion of Crest which grew gross profit by $2.6 million.
Consolidated gross margin percentage decreased primarily due to the inclusion of Crest, as Crest generates a lower gross margin percentage than our MasterCraft segment. This dilutive effect on consolidated gross margin percentage was partially offset by margin improvement at our MasterCraft segment, driven by price increases, lower discounts and lower materials cost relative to gross sales at our MasterCraft brand, and at NauticStar, primarily driven by price increases and operational efficiencies.
Operating expenses increased $1.2 million, or 10.7 percent, to $12.8 million for the first quarter compared to $11.6 million for the prior-year period. The increase was primarily due to:
- the inclusion of Crest which added $2.2 million; partially offset by
- a $1.1 million decrease at our MasterCraft segment due to lower acquisition-related costs and lower selling and marketing costs partially offset by higher legal and professional fees.
Net Income for the first quarter was $8.6 million, or $0.46 per share, reflecting an increase of $0.2 million, or 1.9 percent, compared to $8.5 million, or $0.45 per share, for the prior-year period. Adjusted Net Income of $10.1 million, or $0.53 per share, on a fully diluted, weighted average share count of 19.0 million shares, was computed using the company’s estimated annual effective tax rate of approximately 23.0 percent. This compares to Adjusted Net Income of $10.2 million, or $0.54 per fully diluted share, in the prior-year period.
Adjusted EBITDA was $15.9 million for the first quarter, compared to $15.0 million in the prior-year period. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 14.5 percent, down from 16.0 percent in prior-year period principally due to the dilutive effect of Crest.
See “Non-GAAP Measures” below for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Net Income per share to the most directly comparable financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP.
Outlook
Said Brightbill, “We are bullish on the long-term prospects of both the markets we serve and the brands we own, despite any near-term fluctuations. The launch of our new Aviara brand is being extremely well received by our dealer partner, MarineMax, and consumers alike, and we’ve made significant improvements in our dealer pipeline inventory through our first fiscal quarter. As we continue to navigate the challenges ahead, including economic, trade and political uncertainty, we remain steadfast in our focus to prudently manage the company and position it for long-term success. We will use the transition to a new CEO as an opportunity to build on the company’s historical success and position it for the next stage of growth.”
Given the above-mentioned factors, the company’s consolidated fiscal 2020 outlook remains as follows:
- Net Sales – down low-single digit percent
- Adjusted EBITDA Margin – down 50 to 100 basis points
- Adjusted Earnings per Share – down high-single digit percent

Non-GAAP Measures
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin
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 or other items that we do not consider to be indicative of our core and/or ongoing operations. For the periods presented herein, these adjustments include non-cash share-based compensation, transaction expenses associated with acquisitions, and Aviara (new brand) startup costs. We define Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Adjusted EBITDA 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 net income 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, these adjustments include non-cash other intangible asset amortization, non-cash share-based compensation, transaction expenses associated with acquisitions, and Aviara (new brand) startup costs.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Net Income per share, which we refer to collectively as the Non-GAAP Measures, are not measures of net income or operating income as determined under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or U.S. GAAP. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Net Income per share 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 operating cash flows determined in accordance with U.S. 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 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 of directors, 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 non-cash items and items not indicative of our core and/or ongoing operations. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Net Income per share 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 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, Adjusted Net Income per share, and Adjusted EBITDA 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 Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Net Income per share may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, including companies in our industry.
We do not provide forward-looking guidance for certain financial measures on a U.S. GAAP basis because we are unable to predict certain items contained in the U.S. GAAP measures without unreasonable efforts.
