VONORE, Tenn., Feb. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MasterCraft Boat Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: MCFT) today announced financial results for its fiscal 2025 second quarter ended December 29, 2024.
The overview, commentary, and results provided herein relate to our continuing operations, which exclude our former Aviara segment.
Overview:
- Net sales for the second quarter were $63.4 million, down $26.4 million, or 29.4%, from the comparable prior-year period
- Planned decrease in production contributed to significantly lower dealer inventory levels compared to the prior-year
- Income from continuing operations was $0.4 million, or $0.03 per diluted share
- Adjusted Net Income, a non-GAAP measure, was $1.7 million, or $0.10 per diluted share
- Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, was $3.5 million, down $9.4 million from the comparable prior-year period
- All debt amounts have been repaid, leaving $62.9 million of cash and investments, with $100 million of availability on the revolving credit facility
- The dispositions of the Aviara brand and facility assets have been completed
Brad Nelson, Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Our business executed well during our fiscal second quarter by delivering results above expectations despite macroeconomic and retail environment headwinds. Early boat show season results have been encouraging, especially with strong demand for our new ultra-premium XStar lineup which has provided positive momentum as we near the summer selling season.”
Nelson continued, "We maintain a disciplined approach to capital allocation. During the quarter, we generated $13.9 million of cash flow from continuing operations despite low cycle production volumes. Our strong balance sheet provides us with the financial flexibility to pursue our strategic growth initiatives while we continue to return capital to shareholders through our share repurchase program.”

Second Quarter Results
For the second quarter of fiscal 2025, MasterCraft Boat Holdings, Inc. reported consolidated net sales of $63.4 million, down $26.4 million from the second quarter of fiscal 2024. The decrease in net sales was primarily due to planned lower unit volumes, leading to lower dealer inventory levels, and unfavorable model mix.
Gross margin percentage declined 610 basis points during the second quarter of fiscal 2025, compared to the prior-year period. Lower margins were the result of unfavorable model mix and lower cost absorption due to the decreased production volume.
Income from continuing operations was $0.4 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2025, compared to $8.7 million in the prior-year period. Diluted income from continuing operations per share was $0.03, compared to $0.51 for the second quarter of fiscal 2024.
Adjusted Net income was $1.7 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2025, or $0.10 per diluted share, compared to $9.5 million, or $0.55 per diluted share, in the prior-year period.
Adjusted EBITDA was $3.5 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2025, compared to $12.9 million in the prior-year period. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 5.6% for the second quarter, down from 14.4% for the prior-year period.
See "Non-GAAP Measures” below for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Net Income per share, which we refer to collectively as the "Non-GAAP Measures”, to the most directly comparable financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP.
Outlook
Concluded Nelson, "We are narrowing our full year guidance as a result of our second quarter outperformance and added confidence in our production plans from the encouraging XStar launch. We are planning for a range of industry and macroeconomic scenarios while implications of trade uncertainties on the broader economy remains largely unknown. With a strong balance sheet and cash flow generation, we maintain the financial flexibility to pursue our key growth initiatives while we continue to repurchase shares. As we move beyond inventory rebalancing, we are highly focused on positioning the business to capitalize on the upcoming market recovery.”
The Company's outlook is as follows:
- For full year fiscal 2025, we now expect consolidated net sales to be between $275 million and $295 million, with Adjusted EBITDA between $19 million and $24 million, and Adjusted Earnings per share between $0.64 and $0.86. We continue to expect capital expenditures to be approximately $12 million for the year.
- For fiscal third quarter 2025, consolidated net sales are expected to be approximately $75 million, with Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $5 million, and Adjusted Earnings per share of approximately $0.17.
