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, geopolitical conflicts 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.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unless stated otherwise dollars in thousands, except per share data)

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 April 3, 2022, its results of operations for the three and nine months ended April 3, 2022 and April 4, 2021, its cash flows for the nine months ended April 3, 2022 and April 4, 2021, and its statements of stockholders’ equity for the three and nine months ended April 3, 2022 and April 4, 2021. 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 and nine months ended April 3, 2022 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 11 – 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.

Contract Liabilities

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had $1.8 million of contract liabilities associated with customer deposits. During the nine months ended April 3, 2022, all of this amount was recognized as revenue. As of April 3, 2022, total contract liabilities associated with customer deposits were $2.2 million, were reported in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet, and substantially all of the amounts are expected to be recognized as revenue during the remainder of the year ending June 30, 2022.

3.	INVENTORIES

Inventories consisted of the following:

	April 3,			June 30,
	2022			2021
Raw materials and supplies	$	60,026		$	37,089
Work in process		15,818			10,171
Finished goods		9,183			8,362
Obsolescence reserve		(2,674	)		(2,141	)
Total inventories	$	82,353		$	53,481

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 11 – 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. At the time of the impairment test, near-term operating losses generated by start-up inefficiencies had 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 first quarter of fiscal 2022.

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

	MasterCraft			Crest			NauticStar			Aviara			Total
Balance at June 30, 2021
Goodwill	$	29,593		$	36,238		$	36,199		$	—		$	102,030
Accumulated impairment losses		—			(36,238	)		(36,199	)		—			(72,437	)
Goodwill, net at June 30, 2021		29,593			—			—			—			29,593
Goodwill reallocation		(1,100	)		—			—			1,100			—
Impairment		—			—			—			(1,100	)		(1,100	)
Goodwill, net at April 3, 2022	$	28,493		$	—		$	—		$	—		$	28,493

During the three and nine months ended April 3, 2022 and April 4, 2021, the Company did not record impairment charges related to its Other intangible assets. Given current period operating losses combined with a history of operating losses and operational inefficiencies, the Company continues to monitor the NauticStar segment’s outlook for sales and operating performance relative to the forecasts of expected future cash flows used in the Company’s previous impairment tests in order to evaluate whether the carrying value of the segment’s intangible assets remain above fair value. Should economic conditions, such as supply chain disruptions, labor challenges, and inflationary pressures, deteriorate in future periods or remain depressed for a prolonged period of time, or operational inefficiencies grow, estimates of future cash flows may not be sufficient to support the carrying value of NauticStar’s intangible assets.

For more information related to the Company’s Other intangible assets and our accounting policies related to determining fair values of our intangible assets and impairment evaluations, see Notes 1 and 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021.

6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Purchase Commitments

In October 2021, the Company entered into a new supplier agreement to purchase marine outboard engines during fiscal 2022. During the term of the agreement, the Company is committed to purchasing a minimum annual gross dollar value of $27.0 million in engines.

Legal Proceedings

The Company is subject to various litigation, claims and proceedings, which have arisen in the ordinary course of business. The Company accrues for litigation, claims and proceedings when a liability is both probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated.

As of April 3, 2022, the Company’s accruals for litigation matters are not material. While these matters are subject to inherent uncertainties, management believes that current litigation, claims and proceedings, individually and in the aggregate, and after considering expected insurance reimbursements, are not likely to have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

7.LONG-TERM DEBT

Long-term debt is as follows:

	April 3,			June 30,
	2022			2021
Revolving credit facility	$	7,728		$	33,728
Term loans		57,750			60,000
Debt issuance costs on term loans		(483	)		(585	)
Total debt		64,995			93,143
Less current portion of long-term debt		3,000			3,000
Less current portion of debt issuance costs on term loans		(128	)		(134	)
Long-term debt, net of current portion	$	62,123		$	90,277

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 three and nine months ended April 3, 2022, 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 April 3, 2022, the interest rates on the Company’s term loan and revolving credit facility were 1.75% and 3.75%, respectively.

The Credit Agreement will mature and all remaining amounts outstanding thereunder will be due and payable on June 28, 2026. As of April 3, 2022, the Company was in compliance with its financial covenants under the Credit Agreement.

Revolving Credit Facility

As of April 3, 2022, the Company had $7.7 million of borrowings outstanding on its Revolving Credit Facility and had remaining availability of $92.3 million. Subsequent to April 3, 2022, the Company repaid all outstanding borrowings and availability under the Revolving Credit Facility was $100.0 million.

8.	INCOME TAXES

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 April 3, 2022 and April 4, 2021, the Company’s effective tax rate was 22.9% and 19.4%, respectively. During the nine months ended April 3, 2022 and April 4, 2021, the Company’s effective tax rate was 23.4% and 21.2%, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended April 3, 2022 is higher compared to the effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended April 4, 2021, primarily due to an increase in the tax impact of uncertain state tax positions and the increase in the effective state tax rate.

9.	SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

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

	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended
	April 3,		April 4,		April 3,		April 4,
	2022		2021		2022		2021
Restricted stock awards	$	417	$	377	$	1,402	$	1,182
Performance stock units		355		525		1,474		1,003
Share-based compensation expense	$	772	$	902	$	2,876	$	2,185

Restricted Stock Awards

During the nine months ended April 3, 2022, the Company granted 74,961 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 nine months ended April 3, 2022, 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 nine months ended April 3, 2022, was $26.14 per share.

The following table summarizes the status of nonvested RSAs as of April 3, 2022, and changes during the nine months then ended.

				Average
	Nonvested			Grant-Date
	Restricted			Fair Value
	Shares			(per share)
Nonvested at June 30, 2021		118,193		$	19.42
Granted		74,961			26.14
Vested		(58,803	)		19.24
Forfeited		(8,534	)		24.65
Nonvested at April 3, 2022		125,817			23.16

As of April 3, 2022, there was $1.7 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested RSAs. The Company expects this expense to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.7 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.

The following table summarizes the status of nonvested PSUs as of April 3, 2022, and changes during the nine months then ended.

				Average
	Nonvested			Grant-Date
	Performance			Fair Value
	Stock Units			(per share)
Nonvested at June 30, 2021		160,285		$	21.03
Granted		53,842			28.73
Forfeited		(9,077	)		26.71
Nonvested at April 3, 2022		205,050			22.80

As of April 3, 2022, there was $2.3 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested PSUs. The Company expects this expense to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.7 years.

10.	EARNINGS PER SHARE AND COMMON STOCK

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

	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended
	April 3,		April 4,		April 3,		April 4,
	2022		2021		2022		2021
Net income	$	20,935	$	17,568	$	46,723	$	39,636

Weighted average shares — basic		18,295,949		18,817,975		18,622,878		18,799,875
Dilutive effect of assumed exercises of stock options		9,044		16,133		12,093		14,728
Dilutive effect of assumed restricted share awards/units		182,353		155,521		161,896		113,685
Weighted average outstanding shares — diluted		18,487,346		18,989,629		18,796,867		18,928,288

Diluted net income per share	$	1.13	$	0.93	$	2.49	$	2.09

For the three and nine months ended April 3, 2022 and April 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 the Company’s common stock during the three-year period ending June 24, 2024. During the three months ended April 3, 2022, the Company repurchased 395,948 shares of common stock for $10.1 million in cash, including related fees and expenses. During the nine months ended April 3, 2022, the Company repurchased 810,623 shares of common stock for $21.5 million in cash, including related fees and expenses. As of April 3, 2022, $28.5 million remained available under the program.

11.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 and nine months ended April 3, 2022, the Company’s CODM regularly assessed the operating performance of the Company’s boat brands under four operating and reportable segments:

•

The MasterCraft segment produces boats at its Vonore, Tennessee facility. These are premium recreational performance sport boats primarily used for water skiing, wakeboarding, wake surfing, and general recreational boating.

•

The Crest segment produces pontoon boats at its Owosso, Michigan facility. Crest’s boats are primarily used for general recreational boating.

•

The NauticStar segment produces boats at its Amory, Mississippi facility. NauticStar’s boats are primarily used for saltwater fishing and general recreational boating.

•

The Aviara segment produces luxury day boats at its Merritt Island, Florida facility. Aviara boats are primarily used for general recreational boating. Beginning in fiscal 2022, the CODM has begun to assess Aviara’s performance on a stand-alone basis using criteria consistent with our other 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:

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

Dealer inventory levels remain low compared to pre-pandemic levels, which has sustained the increased wholesale demand for our product. Year over year, we have increased production rates to address wholesale demand, yet supply chain and labor challenges have disrupted our efforts to replenish dealer inventory levels. Furthermore, these challenges, coupled with inflationary pressures, have increased costs and reduced our margins. To mitigate the impact of these challenges on our business, we have increased raw material safety stock, pursued alternative sourcing, altered business processes, and phased in additional mid-cycle price increases. However, the full extent of the impact on our business, operations, and financial results will depend on evolving factors that we cannot predict. See Part I. Item 1A. Risk Factors set forth in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Macroeconomic Events

We are actively monitoring the impact of changing macroeconomic conditions on our business, including geopolitical events, disrupted global supply chains, and inflation. The impact of these factors has affected many manufacturers across various industries including ours. Supply chain challenges continue to evolve, driven by increased demand, labor shortages, logistical constraints, and rising prices to our suppliers, creating inefficiencies and shipping delays. Rapidly increasing material and overhead costs are outpacing price increases as we try to mitigate the impact. Furthermore, the uncertainty associated with the COVID-19 pandemic remains, which we continue to actively monitor in terms of its potential impact on our results of operations. The extent to which our operations will be impacted by COVID-19 will largely depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be accurately predicted.

Gross margin		22.5	%		25.2	%	(270) bps							21.9	%		25.0	%	(310) bps

Net sales increased 26.3 percent and 32.4 percent during the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022, respectively, when compared with the same prior year periods. Net sales benefited from increased sales volume as our dealers continue to restock their inventories. Higher prices, favorable model mix, and higher option sales were also favorable compared to the prior period. Refer to the MasterCraft, Crest, NauticStar, and Aviara segments for further details on the drivers of net sales changes.

Gross margin percentage declined 270 basis points and 310 basis points during the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022, respectively, compared to the same prior year periods. Lower margins were the result of supply chain disruptions and inflationary pressures that drove material and overhead costs higher and were most pronounced at the NauticStar segment. Though we implemented mitigating procedures and phased in mid-cycle price increases to offset these headwinds, supply chain disruptions and inflationary pressures continued to impact our margins.

Operating expenses were flat during the third quarter and increased 13.7 percent during the first nine months of fiscal 2022 when compared to the same prior year periods. Despite our increased costs during the first nine months, selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales have decreased when compared to the same prior-year period. Selling and marketing expense increased due to timing of prior-year expenses being impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in lower costs for the first nine months of fiscal 2021. General and administrative expenses increased during the first nine months as a result of continued investments in 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 due to lower effective interest rates and lower average outstanding debt balances during the current year periods compared to the prior year periods.

Segment Results

As discussed in Note 1 to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and beginning with the first quarter of fiscal 2022, 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 and nine months ended:

	Three Months Ended				2022 vs. 2021						Nine Months Ended				2022 vs. 2021
	April 3,		April 4,					%			April 3,		April 4,				%
	2022		2021		Change			Change			2022		2021		Change		Change
Net sales	$	119,956	$	97,023	$	22,933			23.6	%	$	318,744	$	246,125	$	72,619		29.5	%
Operating income		28,051		20,813		7,238			34.8	%		65,533		51,840		13,693		26.4	%
Purchases of property, plant and equipment		1,434		1,109		325			29.3	%		4,966		3,807		1,159		30.4	%

Unit sales volume		900		933		(33	)		(3.5	%)		2,569		2,346		223		9.5	%
Net sales per unit	$	133	$	104	$	29			27.9	%	$	124	$	105	$	19		18.1	%

Net sales increased 23.6 percent and 29.5 percent during the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022, respectively, when compared with the same prior year periods. The increase was primarily driven by favorable model mix, higher prices, and higher option sales. For the third quarter, the increase was partially offset by decreased sales volumes. Lower sales volume for the quarter was driven by supply chain disruptions and absenteeism due to COVID-19, which created inefficiencies and shipping delays. In contrast to the third quarter, the first nine months benefited from increased sales volumes.

Operating income increased $7.2 million and $13.7 million during the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022, respectively, when compared to the same prior year periods. The increase was driven by higher net sales, offset by inflationary pressures and production inefficiencies from supply chain disruptions and labor challenges. Additionally, for the first nine months of fiscal 2022, Selling and marketing expense increased due to timing of prior-year expenses being impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in lower costs for the first nine months of fiscal 2021. Also, General and administrative expenses increased as a result of continued investments in product development and information technology.

Crest Segment

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

	Three Months Ended				2022 vs. 2021					Nine Months Ended				2022 vs. 2021
	April 3,		April 4,				%			April 3,		April 4,				%
	2022		2021		Change		Change			2022		2021		Change		Change
Net sales	$	38,959	$	30,362	$	8,597		28.3	%	$	101,457	$	69,370	$	32,087		46.3	%
Operating income		5,568		4,150		1,418		34.2	%		14,004		8,462		5,542		65.5	%
Purchases of property, plant and equipment		1,146		320		826		258.1	%		2,190		344		1,846		536.6	%

Unit sales volume		855		731		124		17.0	%		2,261		1,759		502		28.5	%
Net sales per unit	$	46	$	42	$	4		9.5	%	$	45	$	39	$	6		15.4	%

Net sales increased $8.6 million and $32.1 million during the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022, respectively, when compared to the same prior year periods, as a result of higher sales volumes and higher prices.

Operating income for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022 increased 34.2 percent and 65.5 percent, respectively, when compared to the same prior year periods. The increase is primarily the result of higher net sales, partially offset by higher costs from inflationary pressures.

Purchases of property, plant, and equipment increased $0.8 million and $1.8 million for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022, respectively, when compared to the same prior year periods due to investments in manufacturing capacity expansion and maintenance capital.

NauticStar Segment

The following table sets forth NauticStar segment results for the three and nine months ended:

	Three Months Ended					2022 vs. 2021						Nine Months Ended						2022 vs. 2021
	April 3,			April 4,					%			April 3,			April 4,						%
	2022			2021		Change			Change			2022			2021			Change			Change
Net sales	$	17,392		$	18,045	$	(653	)		(3.6	%)	$	45,817		$	45,336		$	481			1.1	%
Operating (loss) / income		(4,117	)		331		(4,448	)		(1343.8	%)		(9,519	)		(1,614	)		(7,905	)		489.8	%
Purchases of property, plant and equipment		1,047			958		89			9.3	%		2,818			1,717			1,101			64.1	%

Unit sales volume		348			426		(78	)		(18.3	%)		949			1,067			(118	)		(11.1	%)
Net sales per unit	$	50		$	42	$	8			19.0	%	$	48		$	42		$	6			14.3	%

Net sales decreased $0.7 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 when compared to the same prior-year period. The benefits of higher prices and favorable model mix did not overcome the decreased sales volume during the third quarter. Lower sales volume was driven by supply chain disruptions and production inefficiencies, which created shipping delays. Net sales increased $0.5 million for the first

nine months of fiscal 2022, due to higher prices, favorable model mix, and higher option sales, partially offset by decreased sales volumes.

Operating loss was $4.1 million and $9.5 million for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022, respectively. Supply chain disruptions, labor challenges, and higher costs from inflationary pressures, offset benefits from higher sales prices. Additionally, for the third quarter of fiscal 2022, $0.2 million in expense was recognized for third-party consulting fees in an effort to improve operational efficiency and increase throughput at the NauticStar segment.

Aviara Segment

The following table sets forth Aviara segment results for the three and nine months ended:

	Three Months Ended						2022 vs. 2021						Nine Months Ended						2022 vs. 2021
	April 3,			April 4,						%			April 3,			April 4,						%

Unit sales volume		29			8			21			262.5	%		71			32			39			121.9	%
Net sales per unit	$	360		$	303		$	57			18.8	%	$	341		$	295		$	46			15.6	%

Net sales increased $8.0 million and $14.7 million during the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022, respectively, when compared to the same prior year periods, due to an increase in sales volume, favorable model mix, and higher prices.

During fiscal 2022, all Aviara boats were manufactured in our 140,000 square foot Merritt Island, Florida facility, which we purchased in October 2020. During the first six months of 2021, the production of Aviara boats at our MasterCraft facility in Vonore, Tennessee, was winding down and transitioning to the Merritt Island facility. As a result of this transition, overhead costs attributable to Aviara increased significantly which created a dilutive near-term impact on Aviara’s margins and profitability.

Operating loss decreased $0.7 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 as a result of increased production, partially offset by inflationary pressures when compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2021. Operating loss increased $2.2 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2022, compared to the same prior-year period due to inflation, ramp up related inefficiencies at the Merritt Island facility, including higher overhead costs associated with the new facility, and a goodwill impairment charge recorded during the first quarter of fiscal 2022. See Note 4 in Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on the impairment charge.

Non-GAAP Measures

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin

We define EBITDA as earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA further adjusted to eliminate certain non-cash charges or other items that we do not consider to be indicative of our core and/or ongoing operations. For the periods presented herein, these adjustments include operational improvement initiative costs, Aviara transition costs, and certain non-cash items including goodwill impairment and share-based compensation. We define Adjusted EBITDA margin as Adjusted EBITDA expressed as a percentage of Net sales.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Share

We define Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income per share as net income adjusted to eliminate certain non-cash charges or other items that we do not consider to be indicative of our core and/or ongoing operations and reflecting income tax expense on adjusted net income before income taxes at our estimated annual effective tax rate. For the periods presented herein, these adjustments include operational improvement initiative costs, Aviara transition costs, and certain non-cash items including goodwill impairment, other intangible asset amortization, and share-based compensation.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, 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. The Non-GAAP Measures are not measures of performance in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, net income per share, or operating cash flows determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of cash flow. We believe that the inclusion of the Non-GAAP Measures is appropriate to provide additional information to investors because securities analysts and investors use the Non-GAAP Measures to assess our operating performance across periods on a consistent basis and to evaluate the relative risk of an investment in our securities. We use Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income per share to facilitate a comparison of our operating performance on a consistent basis from period to period that, when viewed in combination with our results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, provides a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business than does U.S. GAAP measures alone. We believe Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income per share assists our board of directors, management, investors, and other users of the financial statements in comparing our net income on a consistent basis from period to period because it removes certain non-cash items and other items that we do not consider to be indicative of our core and/or ongoing operations and reflecting income tax expense on adjusted net income before income taxes at our estimated annual effective tax rate. The Non-GAAP Measures have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

•

Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;

•

Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;

•

Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;

•

Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our tax expense or any cash requirements to pay income taxes;

•

Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest payments on our indebtedness; and

•

Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Income per share, and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters we do not consider to be indicative of our core and/or ongoing operations, but may nonetheless have a material impact on our results of operations.

In addition, because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of the Non-GAAP Measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, including companies in our industry.

The following table presents a reconciliation of net income as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP to EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA, and net income margin (expressed as a percentage of net sales) to Adjusted EBITDA Margin (expressed as a percentage of net sales) for the periods indicated:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary liquidity and capital resource needs are to finance working capital, fund capital expenditures, service our debt, and fund our stock repurchase program. Our principal sources of liquidity are our cash balance, cash generated from operating activities, our revolving credit agreement and the refinancing and/or new issuance of long-term debt.

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $13.8 million as of April 3, 2022, a decrease of $25.5 million from $39.3 million as of June 30, 2021. Total debt as of April 3, 2022 and June 30, 2021 was $65.0 million and $93.1 million, respectively.

Our working capital was impacted by the $28.9 million increase in inventory during the first nine months of fiscal 2022 mainly due to an increase in raw materials 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.

As of April 3, 2022, we had $7.7 million outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility, leaving $92.3 million of available borrowing capacity. Refer to Note 7 — Long Term Debt in the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further details.

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 nine months ending April 3, 2022, the Company repurchased 810,623 shares of common stock for $21.5 million in cash, including related fees and expenses.

We are continuing to monitor the impact of supply chain disruptions, production inefficiencies, and inflationary pressures on our business. However, we believe our cash balance, cash from operations, and our ability to borrow will be sufficient to provide for our liquidity and capital resource needs, including authorized stock repurchases.

The following table summarizes our cash flows from operating, investing, and financing activities:

	Nine Months Ended
	April 3,			April 4,
	2022			2021
	(Dollars in thousands)
Total cash provided by (used in):
Operating activities	$	35,302		$	54,393
Investing activities		(10,839	)		(23,779	)
Financing activities		(49,949	)		(17,963	)
Net change in cash	$	(25,486	)	$	12,651

Nine Months Ended April 3, 2022 Cash Flow

Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended April 3, 2022 totaled $35.3 million versus $54.4 million compared to the same prior-year period. The decrease is primarily due to working capital usage, partially offset by higher net earnings during fiscal 2022. Working capital usage primarily consisted of an increase in inventory, accounts receivable, and prepaid expenses and other current assets. Partially offsetting the working capital usage was an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses and other current liabilities. As discussed above, inventory increased $28.9 million for first nine months of 2022. Accounts receivable increased as a result of timing of shipments. Prepaid expenses and other current assets increased due to higher general insurance premiums. Accounts payable increased as a result of increased production levels. Accrued expenses and other current liabilities increased due to an increase in warranty costs and dealer incentives.

Net cash used for investing activities was $10.8 million, which included capital expenditures. Our capital spending was focused on expanding our capacity and maintenance capital.

Net cash used for financing activities was $49.9 million, which included net payments of $28.3 million on long-term debt and stock repurchases totaling $21.5 million.

Nine Months Ended April 4, 2021 Cash Flow

Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended April 4, 2021 totaled $54.4 million primarily due to net income net of non-cash expense items, an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses and other current liabilities, and a decrease in income tax receivable, partially offset by an increase in inventory, accounts receivable, and prepaid expenses and other current assets. Accounts payable and inventory increased as a result of increased production. Accrued expenses and other current liabilities increased due to timing of variable compensation costs, increased warranty, dealer incentive, and transportation costs, and an increase in customer deposits. Income tax receivable decreased due to a receipt of a tax refund associated with fiscal 2020. Accounts receivable increased as a result of increased sales. Prepaid expenses and other current assets increased due to payment of annual insurance premiums during the third quarter of fiscal 2021.

Net cash used for investing activities was $23.8 million, which consisted of capital expenditures, including the purchase of the Merritt Island, Florida manufacturing facility.

Net cash used for financing activities was $18.0 million and related primarily to net payments of long-term debt.

Contractual Obligations

In October 2021, we entered into a new supplier agreement to purchase marine outboard engines during fiscal 2022. During the term of the agreement, we committed to purchasing a minimum annual gross dollar value of $27.0 million in engines. Except for the new purchase agreement and the net repayment of debt of $28.3 million during the nine months ended April 3, 2022, there were no material changes to our contractual obligations disclosed in “Part II, Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company did not have any off balance sheet financing arrangements as of April 3, 2022.

Critical Accounting Policies

Except as noted below, as of April 3, 2022 there were no significant changes in or changes to the application of our critical accounting policies or estimation procedures from those presented in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, which was filed with the SEC on September 2, 2021.

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of April 3, 2022.
