BUFORD, Ga., July 30, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- OneWater Marine Inc. (NASDAQ: ONEW) (“OneWater” or the “Company”) today announced results for its fiscal third quarter ended June 30, 2020.
“The fiscal third quarter 2020 was a record quarter with unprecedented retail demand, resulting in significant growth across all of our core business segments, including new boat sales increasing nearly 59% and our higher margin business, like finance & insurance, accelerating by more than 66%. Our team was resilient and pivoted quickly in an incredibly fluid environment delivering substantial market share gains. Further, our competitive differentiators, including our highly efficient sales process, innovative retail technologies, and strong manufacturer partnerships supported our outperformance of the industry,” commented Austin Singleton, Chief Executive Officer of OneWater. “This summer proved that boating has become one of the top activities for those looking to enjoy the outdoors and spend time with friends and family in a safe, socially distanced way. More importantly, the strength of OneWater’s flexible business model has enabled us to execute incredibly well in a challenging environment and deliver superior performance.”
“We are encouraged that retail sales trends continued in July at a robust pace and the sales backlog for August is building, despite the rapidly changing environment and a strong same-store sales comparison from the prior year,” continued Mr. Singleton. “In addition, we recently enhanced our financial strength by utilizing excess cash to complete the paydown and refinancing of our term debt, which will lead to interest expense savings in excess of $6 million in fiscal year 2021 and offers more flexible covenants and terms. This not only will result in significant savings going forward, but also provides us with added flexibility as we resume our acquisition strategy effective immediately. We are confident that the strength in the marine industry will continue into the 2021 season as customers seek safe outdoor activities that can be enjoyed close to home. Additionally, we are focused on executing on our multi-faceted growth strategy through both acquisitions and the expansion of our high-margin business, which we believe will drive long-term shareholder value.”

Fiscal Third Quarter 2020 Results
Revenue for the fiscal third quarter 2020 was $408.3 million, an increase of 48.6% compared to $274.8 million in fiscal third quarter 2019, primarily driven by an increase in unit sales of new and pre-owned boats and to a lesser degree, an increase in the average unit price of new and pre-owned boats sold. Same-store sales increased a record 44%, primarily driven by the strong increase in unit sales during the period, with the balance of the increase coming from an increase in average unit price and stores recently acquired. During the fiscal third quarter 2020, the Company realized a 29.9% increase in pre-owned boat sales to $85.9 million from $66.1 million, in the prior year, and an increase of 66.3% in finance & insurance income to $16.6 million from $10.0 million, in the prior year.
Gross profit totaled $94.7 million for the fiscal third quarter 2020, compared to $62.7 million for the fiscal third quarter 2019, driven by the increase in new and pre-owned unit sales and higher finance & insurance income. Gross profit margin of 23.2% increased 40 basis points compared to the prior year due primarily to a shift in the mix and size of boat models sold, the Company’s focus on dynamic pricing, the increase in finance & insurance and the emphasis on meeting customer demand.
Fiscal third quarter 2020 selling, general and administrative expenses totaled $43.2 million, or 10.6% of revenue, compared to $34.7 million, or 12.6% of revenue, in the fiscal third quarter of 2019. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue was due mainly to the increased volume of units sold and the cost reduction actions enacted following the acceleration of COVID-19 at the end of March of this year.
Net income for the fiscal third quarter of 2020 totaled $40.6 million, compared to net income of $32.7 million, in the fiscal third quarter of 2019, an increase of 24.3%. The increase is primarily due to the strong growth in sales volume, partially offset by the timing of a $10.4 million reduction in income related to the non-cash change in fair value of warrants recognized in the prior year and higher interest expense and income taxes in the current year. Excluding the income from the non-cash fair value adjustment in the prior year, net income was up $18.3 million or 82.1%
Fiscal third quarter 2020 Adjusted EBITDA (see reconciliation of Non-GAAP financial measures) increased 94.7% to $49.2 million, compared to the fiscal third quarter of 2019.
At June 30, 2020, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents balance was $88.0 million, an increase of $62.9 million compared to $25.1 million at June 30, 2019. The Company also had $10.0 million of availability on its revolving line of credit at June 30, 2020. Subsequent to quarter end, we refinanced our debt facility utilizing approximately $30 million of cash to pay down the facility, accrued interest and expenses. Additionally, the new facility provides an expanded $30 million revolver which remains undrawn. Total inventory at June 30, 2020 decreased to $171.3 million compared to $259.3 million at June 30, 2019, primarily due to the retail sales volume in the quarter and manufacturing shutdowns related to COVID-19 seen at the beginning of the quarter.

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 to their corresponding GAAP measures because certain items that impact these measures are unavailable or cannot be reasonably predicted without unreasonable efforts.
Adjusted EBITDA
We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense – other, income taxes, depreciation and amortization and other (income) expense, further adjusted to eliminate the effects of items such as the change in the fair value of warrants, gain (loss) on settlement of contingent consideration and transaction costs.
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 settlement contingent consideration 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. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as “may,” “will,” “will be,” “will likely result,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “could,” “would,” “foresees,” “intends,” “target,” “projects,” “contemplates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” “outlook” or “continue” or the negative of these words or other similar terms or expressions that concern our expectations, strategy, plans or intentions. 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.
Important factors, some of which are beyond our control, that could cause actual results to differ materially from our historical results or those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements include the following: decline in demand for our products and services, the seasonality and volatility of the boat industry, our acquisition strategies, the inability to comply with the financial and other covenants and metrics in our credit facilities, cash flow and access to capital, effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business, the timing of development expenditures, and other risks. More information on these risks and other potential factors that could affect our financial results is included in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including in the “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” sections of the prospectus filed in connection with our initial public offering. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date as of which such statement is made, and, except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether because of new information, future events, or otherwise.
