Added paragraphs (6)

Current report

Total powersports gross profit decreased $13.0 million for the quarter. Lower sales volumes drove the decline in gross profit. The impact on gross profit from the lower volume was partially offset by improved gross profit per vehicle.

Current report

Our vehicle transportation services segment results were impacted by the departure of several employees, including almost all brokers, early in 2025. While we have hired and continue to hire additional employees, including brokers, we expect this segment’s volume in 2025 to be substantially lower than its 2024 volume. Total vehicle transportation services revenue and gross profit decreased for the first quarter of 2024 compared to the prior year comparable periods due to lower volume of vehicles transported.

Current report

Depreciation and amortization decreased primarily due to certain intangible assets becoming fully amortized.

Current report

We have floor plan agreements with both manufacturer-affiliated finance companies and with related and non-related third parties for most new and certain pre-owned vehicles. The interest rates on these floor plan notes payable commitments vary by lender and are variable rates. See Notes 2 and 9 for more information.
Removed paragraphs (16)

Previous report

Our powersports retail distribution locations represent all major manufacturers, or OEMs, and their representative brands, including those listed below.

Previous report

As of September 30, 2024, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants under Amendment No.8 to the Credit Agreement (defined in Note 4) but determined it may need additional capital and/or relief from the financial covenants in the future. On November 11, 2024, the Company and Oaktree executed Amendment No. 9 to the Credit Agreement (each as defined in Note 12), which provided the Company with revised financial covenants through June 30, 2026, and permitted the Company to enter into the Rights Offering Term Sheet and the Pre-Owned Floor Plan Facility and SLB Commitment Letter (each as defined in Note 12), representing a total of approximately $30.0 million of incremental capital.

Previous report

On September 30, 2024, the Company was not in compliance with the “Minimum EBITDA” financial covenant associated with its JPM Credit Line (as defined in Note 4). On October 23, 2024, the Company paid off the outstanding balance under this floor plan line, which was $5.7 million as of September 30, 2024. This floor plan line terminates on December 31, 2024, and no amounts may be drawn under the line after November 1, 2024.

Previous report

Total powersports revenue decreased $117.0 million for the nine months of 2024, with the decrease coming primarily from lower sales of vehicles in the retail channel. The impact on revenue from lower volume was partially offset by higher revenue per new vehicle sold.

Previous report

Total powersports gross profit decreased $17.8 million for the quarter and $41.7 million for the nine months of 2024. Lower sales volumes drove the decline in gross profit for both the quarter and nine months of 2024. Industry pressures as well as our efforts to reduce inventory more in line with our sales levels resulted in compressed gross profit for powersports.

Previous report

Total vehicle transportation services revenue increased for the third quarter and nine months of 2024 compared to the prior year comparable periods due to higher volume of vehicles transported. Gross profit was comparable in both periods.

Previous report

SG&A as a percentage of gross profit improved 850 basis points for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. SG&A decreased primarily due to our cost savings initiatives, as well as certain expenses in 2023 that did not recur in 2024. Facilities expense in the nine months of 2024 included a $0.9 million gain on the partial termination of a warehouse lease that was no longer needed. The nine months ended September 30, 2023 included $5.1 million of charges related to a proxy contest and reorganization of our board of directors, $5.3 million of personnel restructuring costs primarily associated with officer separations from the Company, and $6.0 million of charges associated with the RumbleOn Finance loan portfolio that was sold at the end of 2023.

Previous report

Depreciation and amortization decreased for the quarter and the nine months compared to the same periods in 2023, primarily due to lower amortization expense for non-compete agreements related to prior acquisitions and lower software amortization costs. Software amortization expense in the 2023 periods included a $2.6 million impairment of the remaining capitalized costs of certain software that was no longer being used.

Previous report

(2) Aggregate availability at December 31, 2023 included $47.5 million for the JPM Credit Line (as defined below) that was reduced to $8.0 million as of September 30, 2024. During October 2024, aggregate credit availability was reduced by $22.8 million as a result of our lowering of limits with certain lenders and the reduction of the limits under the JPM Credit Line. Subsequent to November 1, 2024, pursuant to the terms of the agreement, no new amounts may be borrowed under the JPM Credit Line.

Previous report

At June 30, 2024, the Company was not in compliance with certain leverage ratio financial covenants under the Credit Agreement. On August 6, 2024, the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors party thereto, Oaktree and the lenders party thereto executed Amendment No. 8 to the Credit Agreement (“Amendment No. 8”), pursuant to which, among other things: (i) the leverage ratios were revised and made less restrictive through December 31, 2024, (ii) the level of liquidity required by the minimum liquidity covenant was increased from $25.0 million to $30.0 million starting June 30, 2024 and continuing through the maturity of the term loan, and (iii) a compliance certificate is required to be submitted affirming compliance with the then effective leverage and liquidity tests upon any full or partial cash settlement of the convertible senior 6.75% promissory notes due January 1, 2025. The Company agreed to pay a one-time fee of 0.5% of the loan amount in cash, and the additional 0.5% of interest was extended through March 31, 2025.

Previous report

Included in the availability under powersports inventory financing credit facilities as of September 30, 2024 was the JPM Credit Line with an advance limit of $8.0 million, of which $5.7 million was used. The JPM Credit Line was amended on August 6, 2024 after the Company was not in compliance with the “Minimum EBITDA” financial covenant as of June 30, 2024. The amendment revised applicable financial covenants for the remainder of its term, reduced the commitment level, reduced the advance rate of incremental floored units from 75% to 65% of cost, and extended the term from October 25, 2024 to December 31, 2024. On October 23, 2024, the Company paid off the outstanding balance under the JPM Credit Line. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, no amounts are available to be borrowed under this line after November 1, 2024.

Previous report

The Company executed Amendment No. 9 to the Credit Agreement, the Rights Offering Term Sheet and the Pre-Owned Floor Plan Facility and SLB Commitment Letter on November 11, 2024, as discussed more fully in Note 12.

Previous report

We regularly review a number of key operating metrics to evaluate our segments, measure our progress, and make operating decisions. Our key operating metrics reflect what we believe will be the primary drivers of our business, including increasing brand awareness, maximizing the opportunity to source vehicles from consumers and dealers, and enhancing the selection and timing of vehicles we make available for sale to our customers.

Current wording

Key factors impacting our operating results include increasing brand awareness, maximizing the opportunity to source vehicles from consumers and dealers, and enhancing the selection and timing of vehicles we make available for sale to our customers.

Previous wording

Total powersports revenue for the quarter decreased $44.2 million compared to the same period in 2023 primarily due to lower volume of vehicle units sold. The impact on revenue from the volume was partially offset by a $397 increase in average revenue per new vehicle sold. The lower volume in retail sales of new and pre-owned vehicles contributed to a decline in F&I and PSA revenue for the quarter.

Current wording

Total powersports revenue for the quarter decreased $54.3 million compared to the same period in 2024 primarily due to lower volume of units sold. The impact on revenue from the volume was partially offset by a $234 increase in average revenue per new retail vehicle sold and a $384 increase in average revenue per pre-owned retail vehicle sold. The lower volume in retail sales of new and pre-owned vehicles contributed to a decline in F&I and PSA revenue for the quarter.

Previous wording

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) as a percentage of gross profit improved 370 basis points for the quarter. SG&A decreased primarily due to our cost savings initiatives. Compensation and related costs comprised the majority of the savings. The expense reduction for the quarter was partially offset by higher legal costs included in professional fees for the matters discussed in Note 11. The prior year quarter included certain costs that did not recur in 2024: $0.6 million related to the separation of former executives, $0.4 million related to a proxy contest and reorganization of the board of directors, and a $0.6 million loss associated with the loan receivable portfolio that was sold at the end of 2023.

Current wording

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) were lower compared to the prior year primarily due to our cost savings initiatives. Compensation and related costs comprised the majority of the savings. SG&A in the 2025 period included certain charges and credits that we view as being outside of our normal, ongoing operations. These included a charge of $2.2 million for legal costs for the matters discussed in Note 11, executive termination costs of $1.1 million and a $0.7 million reversal of stock-based compensation expense for the forfeiture of our former CEO’s equity awards. The first quarter of 2024 included $0.9 million of charges for legal costs for the matters discussed in Note 11 and the cost to terminate a contract.

Previous wording

Other interest expense consists primarily of interest and deferred financing costs on the: (i) term loan facility; (ii) convertible senior notes; (iii) finance lease obligation; and in 2023, (iv) the ROF Consumer Finance Facility. Interest expense decreased for the quarter and nine months of 2024 due primarily to lower outstanding principal on the term loan facility and the RumbleOn Finance consumer finance facility being paid off at the beginning of 2024, offset by interest expense on the finance lease obligation that was entered into in September 2023. Other interest expense was also lower due to our adoption of ASU 2020-06, as we are no longer amortizing the debt discount associated with our convertible senior notes. See Note 1, Description of Business and Significant Accounting Policies, for more details on our adoption of the new accounting standard and Note 4, Debt, for more detail on the components of our other interest expense.

Current wording

Other interest expense consists primarily of interest on the term loan facility, finance lease obligation, and the 6.75% convertible senior notes. See Note 3 for interest expense by debt instrument. Other interest expense decreased for the quarter due primarily to the 6.75% convertible senior notes being paid off at the beginning of 2025, as well as lower average borrowings and a lower interest rate on the term loan. Other interest expense included amortization of debt discount and issuance costs of $2.5 million in 2025 and $2.2 million in 2024.

Previous wording

Our future liquidity and capital requirements will depend upon numerous factors, including our results of operations, the timing and magnitude of capital expenditures or strategic initiatives, and other business and risk factors described under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 as amended and supplemented in subsequent filings. We believe that current cash balances plus cash generated from operations and capital commitments received in November 2024 will be sufficient to meet both the operating and capital requirements of our ordinary business operations through at least the next twelve months; however, there can be no assurance that we will not require additional financing within this time frame.

Current wording

We believe that current cash balances plus cash generated from operations will be sufficient to meet both the operating and capital requirements of our ordinary business operations through at least the next twelve months; however, there can be no assurance that we will not require additional financing within this time frame.

Previous wording

Our primary sources of operating cash flows result from the sales of powersports vehicles and ancillary products. Our primary use of cash from operating activities are purchases of inventory, parts and merchandise; marketing costs; interest payments on trade floor plans, long-term debt, and finance lease obligations; rental costs for facilities; and personnel-related expenses. Operating cash flows for the first nine months of 2024 were $87.1 million better than in the comparable period in the prior year, reflecting the Company’s improved operating performance, primarily driven by our efforts to reduce inventory days on hand, the benefit of our cost savings initiatives and the settlement of the sale of the RumbleOn Finance loan portfolio.

Our primary use of cash from operating activities are purchases of inventory, parts and merchandise; marketing costs; interest payments on trade floor plans, long-term debt, and finance lease obligations; rental costs for facilities; and personnel-related expenses. Operating cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2025 were $23.9 million lower than for the comparable period in the prior year. In the first quarter of 2025, we built up our inventory balances in preparation for seasonal demand. In addition, cash flows in the prior year benefited from the settlement of a $15.4 million receivable from the 2023 sale of a loan portfolio that was not repeated in the current year.

Previous wording

Our investing activities support and expand our operations. We acquired a powersports dealership in Massachusetts in 2024 and a powersports dealership in Florida in 2023.

Current wording

Our investing activities support and expand our operations.

Previous wording

Cash flows from financing activities primarily relate to our short and long-term debt activity. In the first nine months of this year, cash used in financing activities was higher in 2024 primarily due to a reduction in non-trade floor plan borrowings. The prior year also included the proceeds from a sale-leaseback transaction.

Current wording

Cash flows from financing activities primarily relate to our short and long-term debt activity. In January 2025, we repaid our 6.75% convertible senior notes at their maturity date.
