CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws. These forward-looking statements can generally be identified by the use of statements that include words such as “could,” “may,” “might,” “will,” “expect,” “likely,” “believe,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “project” and other similar words or phrases. Forward-looking statements involve estimates and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements.

The forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are based on assumptions that we have made considering our industry experience and our perceptions of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other important factors we believe are appropriate under the circumstances. As you read and consider this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should understand that these statements are not guarantees of performance or results. They involve risks, uncertainties (many of which are beyond our control) and assumptions. Although we believe that these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, you should be aware that many important factors could affect our actual operating and financial performance and cause our performance to differ materially from the performance anticipated in the forward-looking statements, including but not limited to the following: the potential effects of supply chain disruptions and production inefficiencies as a result of the coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic on the Company, general economic conditions, demand for our products, inflation, changes in consumer preferences, competition within our industry, our reliance on our network of independent dealers, our ability to manage our manufacturing levels and our fixed cost base, the successful introduction of our new products and the other important factors described under the caption “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on September 2, 2021 (our “2021 Annual Report”). Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of these assumptions prove incorrect, our actual operating and financial performance may vary in material respects from the performance projected in these forward-looking statements.

Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which it is made or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances. New important factors that could cause our business not to develop as we expect may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them.

1.ORGANIZATION, BASIS OF PRESENTATION, AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization — MasterCraft Boat Holdings, Inc. (“Holdings”) was formed on January 28, 2000, as a Delaware holding company and operates primarily through its wholly owned subsidiaries, MasterCraft Boat Company, LLC; MasterCraft Services, LLC; MasterCraft Parts, Ltd.; MasterCraft International Sales Administration, Inc.; Aviara Boats, LLC; Nautic Star, LLC; NS Transport, LLC; and Crest Marine, LLC. Holdings and its subsidiaries collectively are referred to herein as the “Company.”

Basis of Presentation — The Company’s fiscal year begins July 1 and ends June 30, with the interim quarterly reporting periods consisting of 13 weeks. Therefore, the fiscal quarter end will not always coincide with the date of the end of a calendar month.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2021 and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments considered necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of October 3, 2021, its results of operations for the three months ended October 3, 2021 and October 4, 2020, its cash flows for the three months ended October 3, 2021 and October 4, 2020, and its statements of stockholders’ equity for the three months ended October 3, 2021 and October 4, 2020. All adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC for financial information have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The June 30, 2021 condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from the audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. However, management believes that the disclosures in these condensed consolidated financial statements are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Due to the seasonality of the Company’s business, the interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the remainder of the fiscal year.

There were no significant changes in or changes to the application of the Company’s significant or critical accounting policies or estimation procedures for the three months ended October 3, 2021 as compared with those described in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021.

Change in Reportable Segments — Beginning with the first quarter of fiscal 2022, our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) began to manage our business, allocate resources, and evaluate performance based on the changes that have been made in the Company’s management structure in connection with the transition of Aviara production to our Merritt Island facility.  As a result, the Company has realigned its reportable segments to MasterCraft, Crest, NauticStar, and Aviara.  The Company has recast segment information for all prior periods presented.  Refer to Note 10 – Segment Information for further information on the Company’s reportable segments.

Reclassifications — Certain historical amounts have been reclassified in these condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes herewith to conform to the current presentation.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

Income Taxes —In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. ASU 2019-12 simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to general principles in Income Taxes (Topic 740). It also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The adoption of this standard did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Reference Rate Reform — In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. ASU 2020-04 provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. An entity may apply ASU 2020-04 as of any date from the beginning of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The adoption of this standard did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Consistent with the Company’s change in reportable segments described in Note 10—Segment Information, the Company has changed its presentation of disaggregated revenue to align with the new segment structure.  The following tables present the Company’s revenue by major product category for each reportable segment.

Contract Liabilities

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had $1.8 million of contract liabilities associated with customer deposits. During the three months ended October 3, 2021, $1.3 million of this amount was recognized as revenue. As of October 3, 2021, total contract liabilities associated with customer deposits were $4.3 million, were reported in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet, and are expected to be recognized as revenue during the remainder of the year ending June 30, 2022.

Inventories consisted of the following:

Raw materials and supplies have increased to support higher production volumes and to increase safety stock to manage supply chain risk.  Work in process has increased due to supply chain disruptions.

4.GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Beginning with the first quarter of fiscal 2022, the Company realigned its reportable segments to MasterCraft, Crest, NauticStar, and Aviara.  Refer to Note 10 – Segment Information for further information on the Company’s reportable segments.  As a result of the change in segments, in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other, the Company reallocated the goodwill recorded in the MasterCraft reporting unit to the two separate MasterCraft and Aviara reporting units using a relative fair value approach.  

Prior to realigning our segments, we evaluated our goodwill for impairment and determined no impairment existed as the fair value of our MasterCraft reporting unit, which was the only reporting unit containing goodwill, was in excess of its carrying amount.  In conjunction with the reallocation of goodwill, we tested the goodwill at our MasterCraft and Aviara reporting units for impairment using an income-based approach, specifically a discounted cash flow model.  The cash flow model included significant judgements and assumptions related to revenue growth and discount rates. Near-term operating losses generated by start-up inefficiencies have negatively impacted the fair value of Aviara, causing the carrying value of the reporting unit to be in excess of the fair value. Consequently, a $1.1 million impairment charge was recognized in the three months ended October 3, 2021.

The carrying amounts of goodwill attributable to each of the Company’s reportable segments, were as follows:

10

The following table presents the carrying amount of Other intangible assets, net:

Amortization expense related to Other intangible assets, net for both the three months ended October 3, 2021 and October 4, 2020 was $1.0 million. Estimated amortization expense for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2022 is $4.0 million.

Accrued expenses and other current liabilities consisted of the following:

Accrued warranty liability activity was as follows for the three months ended:

11

6.LONG-TERM DEBT

Long-term debt is as follows:

On June 28, 2021, the Company entered into a credit agreement with a syndicate of certain financial institutions (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement provides the Company with a $160.0 million senior secured credit facility, consisting of a $60.0 million term loan (the “Term Loan”) and a $100.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”). The Credit Agreement refinanced and replaced the previously existing credit agreement. The Credit Agreement is secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets.

The Credit Agreement contains a number of covenants that, among other things, restrict the Company’s ability to, subject to specified exceptions, incur additional debt; incur additional liens and contingent liabilities; sell or dispose of assets; merge with or acquire other companies; liquidate or dissolve; engage in businesses that are not in a related line of business; make loans, advances or guarantees; pay dividends or make other distributions; engage in transactions with affiliates; and make investments. The Company is also required to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and a maximum net leverage ratio.

The Credit Agreement bears interest, at the Company’s option, at either the prime rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.25% to 1.00% or at an adjusted LIBOR rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.25% to 2.00%, in each case based on the Company’s net leverage ratio. The Company is also required to pay a commitment fee for any unused portion of the revolving credit facility ranging from 0.15% to 0.30% based on the Company’s net leverage ratio. Effective during the quarter, the applicable margin for loans accruing at the prime rate was 0.25% and the applicable margin for loans accruing interest at LIBOR was 1.25%.  As of October 3, 2021, the interest rate on the Company’s term loan and revolving credit facility was 1.38%.

The Credit Agreement will mature and all remaining amounts outstanding thereunder will be due and payable on June 28, 2026. As of October 3, 2021, the Company was in compliance with its financial covenants under the Credit Agreement.

The Company’s consolidated interim effective tax rate is based on a current estimate of the annual effective income tax rate adjusted to reflect the impact of discrete items. The differences between the Company’s effective tax rates and the statutory federal tax rate of 21.0% primarily relate to the inclusion of the state tax rate in the overall effective rate, the benefit of federal and state credits, and a permanent benefit associated with the foreign derived intangible income deduction, partially offset by a permanent add-back for Section 162(m) limitations. During the three months ended October 3, 2021 and October 4, 2020, the Company’s effective tax rates were 24.0% and 22.8%, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended October 3, 2021 is higher compared to the effective tax rate for the three months ended October 4, 2020, primarily due to an increase in the effective state tax rate, an increase in the tax impact of uncertain state tax positions and a reduction in the benefit of federal and state tax credits, partially offset by an increase in the Company’s net permanent benefits, largely driven by changes in the foreign derived intangible income due to an increase in forecasted taxable income, foreign sales and gross margin.

12

The following table presents the components of share-based compensation expense by award type.

Restricted Stock Awards

During the three months ended October 3, 2021, the Company granted 72,677 restricted stock awards (“RSAs”) to the Company’s non-executive directors, officers and certain other key employees. Generally, the shares of restricted stock granted during the three months ended October 3, 2021, vest pro-rata over three years for officers and certain other key employees and over one year for non-executive directors. The Company determined the fair value of the shares awarded by using the close price of our common stock as of the date of grant. The weighted average grant date fair value of RSAs granted in the three months ended October 3, 2021, was $26.04 per share.

The following table summarizes the status of nonvested RSAs as of October 3, 2021, and changes during the three months then ended.

As of October 3, 2021, there was $2.7 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested RSAs.  The Company expects this expense to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.9 years.

Performance Stock Units

Performance stock units (“PSUs”) are a form of long-term incentive compensation awarded to executive officers and certain other key employees designed to directly align the interests of employees to the interests of the Company’s stockholders, and to create long-term stockholder value. The awards will be earned based on the Company’s achievement of certain performance criteria over a three-year performance period. The performance period for the awards commences on July 1 of the fiscal year in which they were granted and continue for a three-year period, ending on June 30 of the applicable year. The probability of achieving the performance criteria is assessed quarterly. Following the determination of the Company’s achievement with respect to the performance criteria, the number of shares awarded is subject to further adjustment based on the application of a total shareholder return (“TSR”) modifier. The grant date fair value is determined based on both the probability assessment of the Company achieving the performance criteria and an estimate of the expected TSR modifier. The TSR modifier estimate is determined using a Monte Carlo Simulation model, which considers the likelihood of numerous possible outcomes of long-term market performance. Compensation expense related to nonvested PSUs is recognized ratably over the performance period.

13

The following table summarizes the status of nonvested PSUs as of October 3, 2021, and changes during the three months then ended.

As of October 3, 2021, there was $3.2 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested PSUs.  The Company expects this expense to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.1 years.                                

The following table sets forth the computation of the Company’s net income per share:

For the three months ended October 3, 2021 and October 4, 2021, an immaterial number of shares were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share as the effect would have been anti-dilutive.

Stock Repurchase Program

On June 24, 2021, the board of directors of the Company authorized a stock repurchase program that allows for the repurchase of up to $50.0 million of our common stock during the three-year period ending June 24, 2024. During the quarter ended October 3, 2021, the Company repurchased 58,379 shares of common stock for $1.5 million in cash, including related fees and expenses.

10.SEGMENT INFORMATION

Change in Reportable Segments

Beginning with the first quarter of fiscal 2022 and as discussed in Note 1, our CODM began to manage our business, allocate resources, and evaluate performance based on the reportable segments of MasterCraft, Crest, NauticStar, and Aviara.

Reportable Segments

Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the CODM in making decisions on how to allocate resources and assess performance. For the three months ended October 3, 2021, the Company’s CODM regularly assessed the operating performance of the Company’s boat brands under four operating and reportable segments:

Each segment distributes its products through its own independent dealer network. Each segment also has its own management structure which is responsible for the operations of the segment and is directly accountable to the CODM for the operating performance of the segment, which is regularly assessed by the CODM who allocates resources based on that performance, including using measures of performance based operating income.

The Company files a consolidated income tax return and does not allocate income taxes and other corporate-level expenses, including interest, to operating segments. All material corporate costs are included in the MasterCraft segment.

Selected financial information for the Company’s reportable segments was as follows:

The following table presents total assets for the Company’s reportable segments.

ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

The following discussion and analysis should be read together with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In addition, the statements in this discussion and analysis regarding our expectations concerning the performance of our business, anticipated financial results, liquidity and the other non-historical statements are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, the risks and uncertainties described in “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” above and in “Risk Factors” set forth in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Our actual results may differ materially from those contained in or implied by any forward-looking statements.

Certain statements in the following discussions are based on non-GAAP financial measures. A “non-GAAP financial measure” is a numerical measure of a registrant’s historical or future financial performance, financial position or cash flows that excludes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding amounts, that are included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP in the statements of operations, balance sheets or statements of cash flows of the issuer; or includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of including amounts, that are excluded from the most directly comparable measure so calculated and presented. Non-GAAP financial measures do not include operating and statistical measures. The Company includes non-GAAP financial measures in Management’s Discussion and Analysis, as the Company’s management believes that these measures and the information they provide are useful to users of the financial statements, including investors, because they permit users of the financial statements to view the Company’s performance using the same tools that management utilizes and to better evaluate the Company’s ongoing business performance. In order to better align the Company’s reported results with the internal metrics used by the Company's management to evaluate business performance as well as to provide better comparisons to prior periods and peer data, non-GAAP measures exclude the impact of purchase accounting amortization related to business acquisitions.

Overview

The COVID-19 pandemic has facilitated strong marine retail demand as consumers have taken advantage of more flexible work schedules allowing for more leisure time and marine product usage.  This strong retail demand has created historically low dealer inventory levels which, in turn, has increased wholesale demand for our products.  Despite the rise in demand for our products, which led to a 38.8 percent increase in net sales year over year, supply chain disruption, production inefficiencies, and inflationary pressures impacted first quarter 2022 results.

Supply Chain Disruptions. Demand for raw materials and components used in the production of our products has surged. As a result, some of the materials and components that we use are in short supply.  To reduce the impact of supply chain disruptions on production, we have increased our raw materials safety stock where possible.  Additionally, work in process has increased as a result of supply chain shortages delaying our ability to finish production units.  

Production Inefficiencies.  Business processes have been altered to address completion of boats waiting on parts while maintaining normal production lines, resulting in increased labor costs. Absenteeism and implementing COVID-19 mitigating procedures also burdened our work force as we continue to focus on ramp-up of production to meet unprecedented demand.

Inflationary Pressures. Inflationary pressures have increased the costs of raw materials and components used to build our products, negatively impacting our margins during the first quarter of 2022.  New model year price increases took effect for fiscal 2022; however, these price increases did not fully offset the increased material costs caused by inflation.  In response to worsening inflationary pressures, we announced additional mid-cycle price increases that will be implemented during the second quarter and expect the price increases to offset the impact of inflation for the full year.

As we continue to navigate the unprecedented confluence of demand and disruption precipitated by the COVID-19 pandemic, our production rates and results going forward will depend, in large part, on our and our suppliers’ capacity and ability to alleviate ongoing and changing risks.

17

We will continue to actively monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and may take further actions to alter business operations as may be required by government authorities, or that are determined to be in the best interest of our employees, dealers, suppliers, and stakeholders. The full extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, operations, and financial results will depend on evolving factors that we cannot predict. See “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Our Business — Actual or potential public health emergencies, epidemics, or pandemics, such as the current coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition” set forth in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Results of Operations

The table below presents our consolidated results of operations for the three months ended:

18

Three Months Ended October 3, 2021 Compared to the Three Months Ended October 4, 2020

Consolidated Results

Net sales were $144.0 million for first quarter 2022, which represented an increase of 38.8 percent as compared to first quarter 2021. Net sales in each segment benefited from increased volume as our dealers look to restock their inventories, which have been depleted by strong consumer demand for boats. Higher prices, favorable model mix, and higher option sales were also favorable compared to the prior period.

Gross margin declined 440 basis points to 20.9 percent when compared to first quarter 2021 as supply chain disruption and inflationary pressures drove materials and labor costs higher, and overhead from the new Aviara facility created unfavorable overhead absorption. Higher prices from model year changeover partially offset these headwinds.

Operating expenses were $16.1 million for the first quarter, up $3.3 million from the prior-year period. Selling and marketing expense increased due to the timing of prior year expenses being impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in lower costs for the first quarter of fiscal 2021.  General and administrative expense increased as we continued to make investments in research and development and information technology. Additionally, an impairment charge related to the allocated goodwill associated with the Aviara segment was recorded in the first quarter of fiscal 2022, as discussed in Note 4 to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Interest expense decreased $0.6 million due to lower effective interest rates and lower average outstanding debt balances during the quarter compared to the prior-year period.

Segment Results

Beginning with the first quarter of fiscal 2022 and as discussed in Note 1, our CODM began to manage our business, allocate resources, and evaluate performance based on the reportable segments of MasterCraft, Crest, NauticStar, and Aviara.

MasterCraft Segment

The following table sets forth MasterCraft segment results for the three months ended:

Net sales increased $22.4 million, or 32.2 percent, to $92.0 million for first quarter 2022 compared to $69.6 million for the prior year period, primarily driven by an increase in sales volume. Additionally, net sales benefited from higher prices, favorable model mix, and higher options sales.

Operating income for first quarter 2022 was $16.2 million, an increase of $1.8 million, compared to $14.4 million for first quarter 2021 driven by higher net sales, partially offset by the production inefficiencies from supply chain disruption, inflationary pressures, and higher sales and marketing costs compared to the COVID-impacted first quarter 2021.

19

Crest Segment

The following table sets forth Crest segment results for the three months ended:
