Tariff and Trade Environment
Current report
The recently imposed U.S. tariffs did not materially impact our fiscal 2025 results, but their effects and the potential imposition of modified or additional tariffs may, among other things, create new trade barriers that disrupt supply chains, raise costs, weaken consumer confidence and impact consumer demand for our products, and impact our ability to export our products, all of which could have an adverse effect on our business and financial results. The extent of the impact of tariffs on the Company’s business is highly uncertain and difficult to predict. We are closely monitoring the rapidly evolving tariff landscape and are working diligently with key suppliers to mitigate risks. For additional information regarding the potential impacts of tariffs on our business and results of operations, see Item 1A “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Our Regulatory, Accounting, Legal, and Tax Environment.”
Current report
Fiscal 2025 was impacted by anticipated market and economic uncertainty. Net sales decreased primarily due to planned lower unit volumes aimed at aligning dealer inventories with retail demand. Gross margin declined due to lower cost absorption driven by decreased production volume.
Current report
Net Sales. Net Sales decreased 11.8 percent for fiscal 2025 when compared to fiscal 2024. The decrease was a result of planned lower unit volumes and changes in price, partially offset by favorable model mix related to new product introductions, favorable option sales, and decreased dealer incentives.
Current report
Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased $2.1 million primarily due to all outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement being repaid during the first six months of fiscal 2025.
Current report

Total debt as of June 30, 2024 was $49.3 million, with no amounts outstanding as of June 30, 2025.
Current report
Net cash provided by operating activities was $38.2 million, primarily due to net income and favorable working capital changes. Working capital is defined as accounts receivable, income tax receivable, inventories, and prepaid expenses and other current assets net of accounts payable, income tax payable, and accrued expenses and other current liabilities as presented in the consolidated balance sheets, excluding the impact of acquisitions and non-cash adjustments. Favorable changes in working capital primarily consisted of a decrease in inventories, accounts receivable, other assets, prepaid expenses and other current assets, and an increase in income tax payable, partially offset by a decrease in accounts payable. Inventories decreased due to timing of sales at the end of the period compared to the end of the prior-year and planned raw materials reduction due to lower unit production volume. Accounts receivable decreased due to timing of sales at the end of the period compared to the end of the prior-year period. Income tax payable increased due to timing of estimated payments. Prepaid expenses and other current assets decreased mainly due to lower general insurance premiums. Accounts payable decreased due to a reduction in raw material purchases and timing of purchases at the end of the period compared to the prior-year period.
Current report
Net cash provided by investing activities was $20.0 million, which included net proceeds of $29.2 million from available-for-sale securities, partially offset by $9.2 million in capital expenditures.

The analysis concluded both the undiscounted cash flows and fair value exceeded their related carrying values, respectively, resulting in no impairment.
Current report

Fiscal 2024 Overview
Previous report
As anticipated, general market volatility and economic headwinds created uncertainty and softness in the retail environment for fiscal 2024. As previously disclosed, because of the anticipated softness in retail demand, the Company approached its wholesale production plan for fiscal 2024 with a prudent level of caution and a focus on rebalancing dealer inventories consistent with the expected retail demand. As a result, we experienced lower cost absorption and decreased sales volume, leading to lower net sales and gross margin compared to the prior fiscal year.

The Company intends to classify Aviara as discontinued operations beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2025.
Previous report
Net Sales. Net Sales decreased 44.6 percent for fiscal 2024 when compared to fiscal 2023. The decrease was a result of lower unit volume, an increase in dealer incentives, and unfavorable model mix and options, partially offset by higher prices. Dealer incentives include higher floor plan financing costs from higher dealer inventories entering the year and higher interest rates, as well as rebate programs and other measures taken by the Company to assist dealers as the retail environment remains competitive.
Previous report
Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $0.6 million primarily due to higher effective interest rates.

SEC Climate Disclosure Rule
Previous report
In March 2024, the SEC issued its final climate disclosure rule, which requires the disclosure of material Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions and other climate-related topics in annual reports and registration statements. Under the final rule, for accelerated filers, disclosure requirements will begin phasing in for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2026, or fiscal 2027 for the Company. However, on April 4, 2024, the SEC announced its decision to voluntarily stay the new rules pending judicial review of certain legal challenges filed requesting that the proposed rules be vacated. As a result, the timing and scope of the new rules remains unknown. However, the Company is continuing to evaluate the potential impact of the rules, as adopted in March 2024, on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA margin, 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.

Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of cash flow.

The anticipated amendment entails obtaining the necessary consents and waivers to certain restrictions related to the Aviara asset exchange and plans to sell certain facility assets, in addition to a waiver to the covenant ratios in the Credit Agreement for certain future periods as a result of anticipated decreases in earnings. The Company currently expects to complete the amendment process in the first quarter of fiscal 2025.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $12.6 million, primarily due to net income, partially offset by working capital usage. Working capital is defined as accounts receivable, income tax receivable, inventories, and prepaid expenses and other current assets net of accounts payable, income tax payable, and accrued expenses and other current liabilities as presented in the consolidated balance sheets, excluding the impact of acquisitions and non-cash adjustments. Working capital usage primarily consisted of a decrease in accrued expenses and other current liabilities, accounts payable, and income tax payable, offset by a decrease in inventories. Accrued expenses and other current liabilities decreased as a result of lower compensation related accruals, warranty costs as a result of reduced unit volume, and reduced volume rebates, offset by an increase in retail rebates. Accounts payable decreased as a result of decreased production levels. Income tax payable decreased due to the lower earnings compared to the prior year. Inventories decreased as we continue to rebalance inventory levels to align with lower production levels.

The costs of amortizable intangible assets, including dealer networks, are recognized over their expected useful lives, approximately ten years for the dealer networks, using the straight-line method. The dealer network intangible asset within our MasterCraft reporting unit is fully amortized. The dealer network intangible asset within our Pontoon reporting unit that is subject to amortization is evaluated for impairment if events or changes in circumstances suggest that it may be impaired. As part of the impairment test, the Company may perform a quantitative assessment to determine whether the dealer network intangible asset is impaired. If the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value.

The dealer network intangible asset within our MasterCraft reporting unit is fully amortized. The dealer network intangible asset within our Pontoon reporting unit that is subject to amortization is evaluated for impairment using a process similar to that used to evaluate long-lived assets as described below.
Previous wording
Intangible assets not subject to amortization, including trade names, are assessed for impairment at least annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that an asset may be impaired. As part of the annual test, the Company may perform a qualitative, rather than quantitative, assessment to determine whether each trade name intangible asset is “more likely than not” impaired. In performing this qualitative analysis, the Company considers various factors, including macroeconomic events, industry and market events and cost related events. If the “more likely than not” criteria is not met, the impairment test for indefinite-lived intangible assets consists of a comparison of the fair value of the intangible asset with its carrying amount. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the asset.

Product Warranties — The Company offers warranties on the sale of certain products for periods of between one and five years from the date of retail sale. These warranties require us or our dealers to repair or replace defective products during the warranty period at no cost to the consumer. We estimate the costs that may be incurred under our basic limited warranty and record as a liability the amount of such costs at the time the product revenue is recognized. The key judgements that affect our estimate for warranty liability include the number of units sold, historical and anticipated rates of warranty claims and cost per claim. We periodically assess the adequacy of the recorded warranty liabilities and adjust the amounts as actual claims are determined or as changes in the obligations become reasonably estimable. We also adjust our liability for specific warranty matters when they become known and exposure can be estimated. Future warranty claims may differ from our estimate of the warranty liability, which could lead to changes in the Company’s warranty liability in future periods.

Income Taxes—We are subject to income taxes in the United States of America and the United Kingdom. For fiscal 2024, our effective tax rate differs from the statutory rate, primarily due to a state benefit for separate company losses and the relative impact of tax credits to the declines in pre-tax book income. For fiscal 2023, our effective tax rate differs from the statutory rate, primarily due to a change in state taxes as a result of sell NauticStar. See the components of our effective tax rate reconciliation in Note 10.
