    "Our team executed effectively in the third quarter, navigating ongoing market challenges by leveraging our strong brands, disciplined operational performance, and continued focus on dealer health," commented Steve Menneto, Chief Executive Officer of Malibu Boats, Inc. "While retail softness persists, we saw encouraging momentum around our latest product introductions, even during a mixed boat show season. We remain focused on maintaining dealer inventory in line with retail demand through disciplined production and positioning Malibu to emerge even stronger from these evolving market conditions. We are committed to navigating successfully through this period of uncertainty in the market, leveraging our operational agility while continuing to deliver the innovation and quality that define the Malibu experience and position us for long-term success."

    "Given softer-than-anticipated retail trends and ongoing market uncertainty, we are updating our full-year guidance to reflect current conditions and maintain a clear focus on aligning dealer inventory levels with retail demand," said Bruce Beckman, Chief Financial Officer of Malibu Boats, Inc. "Despite these market challenges, our execution remains strong, as evidenced by solid gross margin performance and favorable adjusted EBITDA results. As we manage through the remainder of fiscal 2025, we continue to prioritize dealer health and remain confident in our robust cash flow generation, supported by our flexible cost structure. While we are continuing to monitor international trade policy and tariff rates and their long term impact on the company, we do not anticipate tariffs materially impacting our cost structure for the rest of the fiscal year, and we continue to take a proactive approach to mitigating supply chain risks. Our strong balance sheet and ongoing cash generation gives us confidence in our ability to navigate potential headwinds while continuing to lay the foundation for Malibu's long-term growth."

    Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2025 increased $25.2 million, or 12.4%, to $228.7 million as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024. The increase in net sales was driven primarily by increased unit volumes in the Malibu segment, a favorable model mix across all segments and inflation-driven year-over-year price increases, partially offset by decreased unit volumes in the Cobalt and Saltwater Fishing segments and an unfavorable segment mix. Unit volume for the three months ended March 31, 2025, increased 162 units, or 12.8%, to 1,431 units as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024. Our unit volume increased primarily due to higher wholesale shipments across the Malibu segment, partially offset by lower volumes in the Cobalt and Saltwater Fishing segments due to our dealers' desire to hold less inventory.

    Net sales attributable to our Malibu segment increased $42.0 million, or 69.8%, to $102.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024. Unit volumes attributable to our Malibu segment increased 292 units for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024, primarily due to lower wholesale shipments during the three months ended March 31, 2024, as a result of elevated dealer inventory levels. The increase in net sales was driven by an increase in units, a favorable model mix and inflation-driven year-over-year price increases.

    Net sales attributable to our Saltwater Fishing segment decreased $9.4 million, or 11.5%, to $71.9 million, for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024. Unit volumes attributable to our Saltwater Fishing segment decreased 55 units for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024, primarily due to lower wholesale shipments driven by lower retail activity during the period and our dealers' desire to hold less inventory. The decrease in net sales was driven by a decrease in units and partially offset by a favorable model mix and inflation-driven year-over-year price increases.

    Net sales attributable to our Cobalt segment decreased $7.4 million, or 12.0%, to $54.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024. Unit volumes attributable to Cobalt decreased 75 units for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024, primarily due to lower wholesale shipments driven by our dealers' desire to hold less inventory. The decrease in net sales was driven primarily by a decrease in units, partially offset by favorable model mix and inflation-driven year-over-year price increases.

    Overall consolidated net sales per unit decreased (0.3)% to $159,792 per unit for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024. The decrease in overall consolidated net sales per unit was driven primarily by an unfavorable segment mix partially offset by favorable model mix across all segments and inflation-driven year-over-year price increases. Net sales per unit for our Malibu segment increased 3.2% to $137,417 per unit for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024, driven by favorable model mix and inflation-driven year-over-year price increases. Net sales per unit for our Saltwater Fishing segment increased 3.4% to $220,454 per unit for the three months ended March 31, 2025 driven by favorable model mix and inflation-driven year-over-year price increases. Net sales per unit for our Cobalt segment increased 6.3% to $151,125 per unit for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024, driven by favorable model mix and inflation-driven year-over-year price increases.

    Cost of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2025 increased $19.9 million, or 12.2%, to $182.9 million as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024. The increase in cost of sales was primarily driven by a 12.4% increase in net sales due to higher unit volumes, a more expensive product mix and partially offset by lower per unit labor costs due to fixed cost leveraging.  

    Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2025 increased $5.4 million, or 13.4%, to $45.7 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024. The increase in gross profit was driven by higher net sales partially offset by increased cost of sales for the reasons noted above. Gross margin for the three months ended March 31, 2025 increased 20 basis points from 19.8% to 20.0% driven primarily by the decrease in cost of sales as a percentage of revenue driven by lower per unit labor costs due to fixed cost leveraging.

    Selling and marketing expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2025 increased $0.3 million, or 4.3% to $6.8 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024. The increase was driven primarily by an increase in certain marketing events and travel. As a percentage of sales, selling and marketing expenses decreased 20 basis points to 3.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to 3.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2024. General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2025 increased $1.2 million, or 6.7%, to $19.8 million as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024, driven primarily by legal and professional fees. As a percentage of sales, general and administrative expenses decreased 0.4% to 8.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to 9.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2024. Amortization expense remained flat at $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

    Operating income for the third quarter of fiscal year 2025 increased to $17.4 million from a loss of $74.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal year 2024. Net income for the third quarter of fiscal year 2025 increased 119.4% to $13.2 million from a loss of $67.8 million and net income margin increased to 5.8% from (33.3)% in the third quarter of fiscal year 2024. Adjusted EBITDA in the third quarter of fiscal year 2025 increased 16.0% to $28.3 million from $24.4 million, while Adjusted EBITDA margin increased to 12.4% from 12.0% in the third quarter of fiscal year 2024.

    Fiscal 2025 Guidance

    For the full fiscal year 2025, Malibu anticipates net sales decline ranging from 3-5%, year-over-year, and Adjusted EBITDA margin ranging from 9% to 10%.

    The Company has not provided reconciliations of guidance for Adjusted EBITDA margin, in reliance on the unreasonable efforts exception provided under Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Regulation S-K. The Company is unable, without unreasonable efforts, to forecast certain items required to develop meaningful comparable GAAP financial measures. These items include costs related to the Company's vertical integration initiatives that are difficult to predict in advance in order to include in a GAAP estimate.

    The updated financial guidance ranges supersede any previously disclosed financial guidance and investors should not rely on any previously disclosed financial guidance.

    Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    This release includes the following financial measures defined as non-GAAP financial measures by the Securities and Exchange Commission: Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Fully Distributed Net Income and Adjusted Fully Distributed Net Income per Share. These measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income (loss) as determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") or as an indicator of our liquidity. Our presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures should also not be construed as an inference that our results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. Our computations of these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

    We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, goodwill and other intangible asset impairment expense and non-cash, non-recurring or non-operating expenses, including certain professional fees, litigation settlements and non-cash compensation expense. We define Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are not measures of net income (loss) as determined by GAAP. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin allow investors to evaluate our operating performance and compare our results of operations from period to period on a consistent basis by excluding items that management does not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA to assist in highlighting trends in our operating results without regard to our financing methods, capital structure, and non-recurring or non-operating expenses. We exclude the items listed above from net income (loss) in arriving at Adjusted EBITDA because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within our industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures, the methods by which assets were acquired and other factors. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income (loss) as determined in accordance with GAAP or as an indicator of our liquidity.

    Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing a company's financial performance, such as a company's cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historical costs of depreciable assets.

    We define Adjusted Fully Distributed Net Income as net income (loss) attributable to Malibu Boats, Inc. (i) excluding income tax expense (benefit), (ii) excluding the effect of non-recurring or non-cash items, (iii) assuming the exchange of all LLC units into shares of Class A Common Stock, which results in the elimination of non-controlling interest in Malibu Boats Holdings, LLC (the "LLC"), and (iv) reflecting an adjustment for income tax expense (benefit) on fully distributed net income before income taxes at our estimated effective income tax rate. Adjusted Fully Distributed Net Income is a non-GAAP financial measure because it represents net income (loss) attributable to Malibu Boats, Inc., before non-recurring or non-cash items and the effects of non-controlling interests in the LLC. We use Adjusted Fully Distributed 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 measures alone. We believe Adjusted Fully Distributed Net Income assists our board of directors, management and investors in comparing our net income (loss) on a consistent basis from period to period because it removes non-cash or non-recurring items, and eliminates the variability of non-controlling interest as a result of member owner exchanges of LLC units into shares of Class A Common Stock. In addition, because Adjusted Fully Distributed Net Income (Loss) is susceptible to varying calculations, the Adjusted Fully Distributed Net Income measures, as presented in this release, may differ from and may, therefore, not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

    A reconciliation of our net income (loss) as determined in accordance with GAAP to Adjusted EBITDA and the numerator and denominator for our net income (loss) available to Class A Common Stock per share to Adjusted Fully Distributed Net Income per share of Class A Common Stock is provided under "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures."
