Current report

was primarily driven by increased marketing and personnel investment tied to our Sand States strategy, investments in new enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) infrastructure and inclusion of Coverstar Central.

Current report

Net income was $16.0 million for the fiscal quarter ended June 28, 2025, compared to $13.3 million for the fiscal quarter ended June 29, 2024. The $2.7 million, or 20.3%, increase in net income was primarily because of the factors described above.

Current report

Net income margin was 9.3% for the fiscal quarter ended June 28, 2025, compared to 8.3% for the fiscal quarter ended June 29, 2024. The 1.0% increase in net income margin was driven by the factors described above.

Current report

Adjusted EBITDA was $39.9 million for the fiscal quarter ended June 28, 2025, compared to $34.5 million for the fiscal quarter ended June 29, 2024. The $5.4 million, or 15.7%, increase in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily because of the gross profit growth from increase in net sales that more than offset higher selling, general and administrative expense, as well as the other factors described above.

Two Fiscal Quarters Ended June 28, 2025 Compared to Two Fiscal Quarters Ended June 29, 2024

Current report

The following table summarizes our results of operations for the two fiscal quarters ended June 28, 2025 and June 29, 2024:

Current report

Net sales were $284.1 million for the two fiscal quarters ended June 28, 2025, compared to $270.8 million for the two fiscal quarters ended June 29, 2024. The $13.3 million, or 4.9%, increase in net sales was due to a $14.4 million increase in sales volume, partially offset by a $1.1 million decrease from lower pricing. The sales volume increase was primarily driven by both organic- and acquisition-related growth. The increase in net sales across our product lines consisted of an increase of $16.5 million for covers and $1.3 million for liners, partially offset by a decrease of $4.5 million for in-ground swimming pools.

Current report

Cost of sales was $187.2 million for the two fiscal quarters ended June 28, 2025, compared to $187.1 million for the two fiscal quarters ended June 29, 2024. Gross margin increased by 3.2%, to 34.1% of net sales for the two fiscal quarters ended June 28, 2025, compared to 30.9% of net sales for the two fiscal quarters ended June 29, 2024. The $0.1 million increase in cost of sales was primarily the result of the increase in sales volume, offset by the impact of production efficiencies resulting from lean manufacturing and value engineering programs. The 3.2% increase in gross margin was primarily driven by higher volumes, lean manufacturing and value engineering initiatives, and a margin benefit from the three Coverstar acquisitions.

Current report

Selling, general, and administrative expense was $62.6 million for the two fiscal quarters ended June 28, 2025, compared to $52.8 million for the two fiscal quarters ended June 29, 2024.

We have a heritage of innovation. In an industry that has traditionally marketed on a business-to-business basis (pool manufacturer to dealer), we pioneered the first “direct-to-homeowner” digital and social marketing strategy that has transformed the homeowner’s purchase journey. Through this marketing strategy, we are able to create demand for our pools and to provide high quality, purchase-ready consumer leads to our dealer partners.

Previous wording

Based on our current business trends reflecting the seasonal ramp-up orders in the later part of the first fiscal quarter, our results of operations for the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025 were aligned with our expectations. These results were primarily driven by category share gains in fiberglass pools and autocovers, along with contributions from the Coverstar Central acquisition in August 2024 and the early 2025 acquisitions of two of our smaller autocover dealers. The seasonal ramp-up in orders began in late March, supporting our expectation for progressively higher year-on-year comparisons during the typically stronger second and third fiscal quarters of the year. At the same time, we remain cautious on 2025 new pool starts, which we currently project to be roughly in line with 2024 levels. Additionally, we are closely monitoring the potential impact of current macroeconomic and geopolitical conditions, including the global trade environment and elevated tariffs on imported raw materials, as well as general reduced consumer confidence and increased economic uncertainty. Imports represent approximately 15-20% of the raw materials used in our manufacturing process, so our exposure to additional recently implemented tariffs is relatively limited. While global trade and economic uncertainty remains, we are confident in our ability to offset raw material cost increases through strategic pre-purchasing and operational adjustments. Additionally, we recently implemented targeted price increases on certain products to help further mitigate the potential impact of tariffs.

Previous wording

Strategic transactions continue to be part of our growth strategy. On August 2, 2024, we completed a stock acquisition of Coverstar Central, our exclusive dealer of automatic safety covers in 29 states – mainly in the center of the U.S. Coverstar Central has been our trusted partner since 2006, and this acquisition represents a valuable strategic opportunity that we expect to benefit from in multiple ways. First, the vertical integration of our automatic safety cover product line in the acquired geographies is expected to increase margins. Second, as one company with a fully integrated sales and marketing strategy, we expect to accelerate the sales growth of this product line. Finally, we see opportunities to leverage Coverstar Central’s long-standing relationships with pool builders in its markets to increase the awareness of, and conversion to, fiberglass pools. During the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025, we further strengthened our position in this growing category by acquiring two of our smaller autocover dealers located in Tennessee and New York.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are key metrics used by management and our Board to assess our financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are also frequently used by analysts, investors, and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry, when considered alongside other GAAP measures. We use Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin to supplement GAAP measures of performance to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies, to make budgeting decisions, to utilize as a significant performance metric in our annual management incentive bonus plan compensation, and to compare our performance against that of other companies using similar measures. We have presented Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin solely as supplemental disclosures because we believe they allow for a more complete analysis of results of operations and assist investors and analysts in comparing our operating performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance, such as (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) interest expense, net, (iii) income tax (benefit) expense, (iv) (gain) loss on sale and disposal of property and equipment, (v) restructuring charges, (vi) stock-based compensation expense, (vii) unrealized (gains) losses on foreign currency transactions, (viii) strategic initiative costs, (ix) acquisition and integration related costs and (x) other.
