Current report
Revenue. Revenue decreased $104.1 million, or 16.5%, to $527.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, from $631.5 million for three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease was due to a decrease of $95.7 million or 15.4% in comparable-store sales and a $8.4 million net decrease primarily from closed stores and manufacturing revenue that are not eligible for inclusion in comparable-store sales. The comparable-store decreases were primarily driven by decreases in new and used boat revenue as a result of the challenging retail environment, ongoing economic uncertainty, evolving trade policies and geopolitical tensions, including the Iran conflict.
