Exhibit 99.1

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

MasterCraft Boat Holdings, Inc. Reports Fiscal 2024 Results

VONORE, Tenn. – August 29, 2024 – MasterCraft Boat Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: MCFT) today announced financial results for its fiscal 2024 fourth quarter and year ended June 30, 2024.

 

Subsequent to June 30, 2024, we agreed to transfer rights to our Aviara brand of luxury dayboats and related assets to a third party. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, and is expected to close in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. We intend to classify Aviara as discontinued operations beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2025.

 

The overview, commentary, and results provided herein relate to our continuing operations.

 

Fourth Quarter Overview:

 

Net sales for the fourth quarter were $67.2 million, down 59.7% from the prior-year period
Non-cash impairment charges of $9.8 million related to our Aviara segment
Net loss from continuing operations was ($8.1) million, or ($0.49) per diluted share
Diluted Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per share, a non-GAAP measure, was ($0.04), down from $1.37 in the prior-year period
Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, was $0.8 million, down 97.4% from the prior-year period
Share repurchases of $4.5 million during the quarter

 

Full Year Overview:

 

Net sales were $366.6 million, down 44.6% from the prior-year
Net income from continuing operations was $8.7 million, or $0.51 per diluted share
Diluted Adjusted Net Income per share, a non-GAAP measure, was $1.22, down from $5.35 in the prior-year
Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, was $32.9 million, down 74.9% from the prior-year
Share repurchases of $16.3 million during the year
Ended the year with cash and investments of $86.2 million, and total debt of $49.3 million

Brad Nelson, Chief Executive Officer, commented, “MasterCraft delivered results ahead of our latest expectations as we navigated a challenging economic environment and a highly competitive retail landscape during the fourth quarter and fiscal year. We executed well against our strategic and operational priorities during the year as we destocked field

 


 

inventory levels, advanced consumer-centric initiatives, and returned capital to shareholders, all while optimizing profitability and cash flow.”

Nelson continued, “Combined with economic and retail uncertainty, elevated interest rates and lingering competitor dealer disruptions have contributed to above optimal inventory levels and increased carrying costs for dealers. Our production plans prioritize dealer health, and we remain committed to partnering with our dealers as they stay healthy by judiciously selling through inventory.”

Nelson added, “Our strong financial position provides us with the flexibility to pursue our strategic initiatives, including investment in innovation, product and brand development. We will continue to exercise a disciplined approach to capital allocation. As we navigate this dynamic environment, our strong portfolio of brands positions us well to explore long-term growth opportunities while maintaining the flexibility to return capital to shareholders.”

Fourth Quarter Results

For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, MasterCraft Boat Holdings, Inc. reported consolidated net sales of $67.2 million, down $99.4 million from the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023. The decrease in net sales was due to lower unit volume and unfavorable model mix and options, partially offset by higher prices.

Gross margin percentage declined 1,360 basis points during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, when compared to the prior-year period. Lower margins were the result of lower cost absorption due to planned decreased unit volume and unfavorable model mix and options, partially offset by higher prices.

Operating expenses increased $6.4 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, compared to the prior-year period. The increase in operating expenses was primarily a result of non-cash impairment charges of $9.8 million recorded in our Aviara segment, partially offset by decreased compensation related expenses, decreased product development expenses, and decreased information technology expenses.

Net loss from continuing operations was ($8.1) million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, compared to net income from continuing operations of $23.1 million in the prior-year period. Diluted net loss from continuing operations per share was ($0.49), compared to Diluted net income from continuing operations per share of $1.32 for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023.

Adjusted Net loss was ($0.6) million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, or ($0.04) per diluted share, compared to Adjusted Net income of $23.9 million, or $1.37 per diluted share, in the prior-year period.

Adjusted EBITDA was $0.8 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, compared to $32.7 million in the prior-year period. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 1.3% for the fourth quarter, down from 19.6% for the prior-year period.

 

See “Non-GAAP Measures” below for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Net Income (Loss), and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per share, which we refer to collectively as the “Non-GAAP Measures”, to the most directly comparable financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP.

 


 

 

Fiscal 2024 Results

For fiscal 2024, MasterCraft Boat Holdings, Inc. reported consolidated net sales of $366.6 million, down $295.5 million from fiscal 2023. The decrease in net sales was due to lower unit volume, an increase in dealer incentives, and unfavorable model mix and options, partially offset by higher prices. Dealer incentives include measures taken by the Company to assist dealers as the retail environment remains competitive.

Gross margin percentage declined 730 basis points during fiscal 2024, when compared to the same prior-year period. Lower margins were the result of lower cost absorption due to planned decreased unit volume and higher dealer incentives, partially offset by higher prices.

Operating expenses increased $6.7 million for fiscal 2024, compared to the prior-year period. The increase in operating expenses was primarily a result of non-cash impairment charges of $9.8 million recorded in our Aviara segment and CEO transition costs, partially offset by decreased compensation related expenses.

Net income from continuing operations was $8.7 million for fiscal 2024, compared to $90.5 million in the prior-year period. Diluted net income from continuing operations per share was $0.51, compared to $5.09 for fiscal 2023.

Adjusted Net Income decreased to $20.9 million for fiscal 2024, or $1.22 per diluted share, compared to $95.0 million, or $5.35 per diluted share, in the prior-year period.

Adjusted EBITDA was $32.9 million for fiscal 2024, compared to $131.5 million in the prior-year period. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 9.0% for fiscal 2024, down from 19.9% for the prior-year period.

 

See “Non-GAAP Measures” below for a reconciliation of the Non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP.

 

Outlook

Concluded Nelson, “Looking forward, although current market uncertainties have short-term implications for wholesale shipments, our destocking efforts are positive for dealer health and in the best long-term interest of our business. In fiscal 2025, we will continue to prioritize a healthy distribution network, and our production plan optimizes dealer inventory levels to position us well to capitalize on the next market upswing.”

 

The Company’s outlook is as follows:

 

For full year fiscal 2025, we expect consolidated net sales to be between $265 million and $300 million, with Adjusted EBITDA between $15 million and $26 million, and

 


 

Adjusted Earnings per share of between $0.36 and $0.87. Capital expenditures are projected to be approximately $12 million for the full year.
For fiscal first quarter 2025, consolidated net sales are expected to be approximately $61 million, with Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $2 million, and Adjusted Earnings per share of approximately $0.04.

(a)
During the fiscal fourth quarter of 2024, the Company changed the name of its “Crest” operating segment to “Pontoon.” The segment name change had no impact on the composition of the Company’s segments or on previously reported financial position, results of operations, cash flows or segment operating results.

 

Non-GAAP Measures

 

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA margin, and Adjusted EBITDA margin

 

We define EBITDA as net income (loss) from continuing operations, before interest, 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 impairment charges, share-based compensation, CEO transition costs, and business development consulting costs. We define EBITDA margin and Adjusted EBITDA margin as EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, respectively, each expressed as a percentage of Net sales.

 

Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per share

 

We define Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per share as net income from continuing operations, 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 and reflecting income tax expense (benefit) on adjusted net income (loss) before income taxes at our estimated annual effective tax rate. For the periods presented herein, these adjustments include non-cash impairment charges, other intangible asset amortization, share-based compensation, CEO transition costs, and business development consulting costs.

 

The Non-GAAP Measures are not measures of net income or operating income as determined under GAAP. The Non-GAAP Measures are not measures of performance in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss),

 


 

net income (loss) per share, or operating cash flows determined in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of cash flow. 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 GAAP, provides a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business than does GAAP measures alone. We believe Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) 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 certain non-cash items and other items that we do not consider to be indicative of our core and/or ongoing operations and reflecting income tax expense (benefit) on adjusted net income before income taxes at our estimated annual effective tax rate. The Non-GAAP Measures 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 the Non-GAAP Measures do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;
The Non-GAAP Measures do not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
The Non-GAAP Measures do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
Certain Non-GAAP Measures do not reflect our tax expense or any cash requirements to pay income taxes;
Certain Non-GAAP Measures do not reflect interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest payments on our indebtedness; and
The Non-GAAP Measures 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 the Non-GAAP Measures 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 GAAP basis because we are unable to predict certain items contained in the GAAP measures without unreasonable efforts. These items may include acquisition-related costs, litigation charges or settlements, impairment charges, and certain other unusual adjustments.
