LATHAM, N.Y., Aug. 08, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Latham Group, Inc. ("Latham" or "the Company") (NASDAQ:SWIM), the largest designer, manufacturer, and marketer of in-ground residential swimming pools in North America, Australia, and New Zealand, today announced financial results for the second quarter and six months of its fiscal year 2023 ended July 1, 2023.

Second Quarter Fiscal 2023 Highlights:

Net sales of $177.1 million, down 14.3% year-over-year
Net income of $5.7 million and representing a 3.2% net income margin, versus net income of $4.3 million in the prior year period
Adjusted EBITDA of $31.0 million, representing a 17.5% Adjusted EBITDA margin

Six Months Fiscal 2023 Highlights:

Net sales of $314.8 million, down 21.0% year-over-year
Net loss of $8.7 million and representing a (2.7%) net loss margin, versus net income of $1.5 million in the prior year period
Adjusted EBITDA of $42.0 million, representing a 13.3% Adjusted EBITDA margin

"During the second quarter, we delivered sequential improvements in net sales, gross margin, and adjusted EBITDA margin versus first quarter fiscal 2023," said Scott Rajeski, President and Chief Executive Officer of Latham. "Our second quarter results reflect our active management of costs and alignment of production levels and inventory with demand, while still maintaining best-in-class lead times. Consumer interest in pool ownership remains strong as we saw increased website activity and leads to dealers in the second quarter."

Mr. Rajeski continued, "Looking ahead, we will remain nimble in responding to the difficult macroeconomic environment. As the leader across our product categories, particularly fiberglass, and with a unique direct-to-homeowner and dealer strategy, we are well positioned to drive long-term growth."

Second Quarter Fiscal 2023 Results

Net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2023 were $177.1 million, down $29.7 million or 14.3% from second quarter of fiscal 2022. The decrease was primarily attributable to volume declines due to continued macroeconomic challenges.

Gross profit for the second quarter of fiscal 2023 was $50.2 million, down $17.4 million or 25.7% from the prior fiscal year's second quarter. Gross margin was 28.4%, compared to 32.7% in the prior year period. The year-over-year change in gross profit and gross margin were affected by reduced sales, sell-through of higher cost inventory, the impact of inflation, and the right sizing of our inventory, partially offset by price increases and the benefits of our cost reduction actions taken in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 and second quarter of fiscal 2023.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses ("SG&A") decreased to $30.2 million from $41.8 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2022, driven primarily by an $8.9 million decrease in stock-based compensation expense, lower incentive accruals, and benefits from the cost reduction actions taken in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 and the second quarter of fiscal 2023. SG&A as a percentage of net sales decreased to 17.1% from 20.2%. Excluding non-cash stock-based compensation expense, SG&A decreased by $2.7 million from the prior year period.

Net income was $5.7 million, or $0.05 per share compared to a net income of $4.3 million, or $0.04 per share, for the prior fiscal year's second quarter. Net income margin was 3.2%, compared to a net income margin of 2.1% for the second quarter of fiscal 2022.

Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of fiscal 2023 was $31.0 million, down $17.7 million or 36.3% from the prior fiscal year's second quarter, primarily driven by the decrease in gross profit and partially offset by the reduction in SG&A expenses. Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased to 17.5% from 23.5% for the prior year period.

Six Months Fiscal 2023 Highlights

Net sales for the six months ended July 1, 2023 were $314.8 million, down $83.6 million or 21.0%, from $398.4 million for the six months ended July 2, 2022. The decrease was primarily attributable to volume declines as the pool market returned to pre-2020 seasonality in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 and macroeconomic challenges continued.

Gross profit for the six months ended July 1, 2023, was $83.6 million, down $54.7 million or 39.5% from $138.3 million for the prior year period. Gross margin for the six months ended July 1, 2023 was 26.6%, compared to 34.7% for the prior year period. The year-over-year change in gross profit and gross margin were driven by reduced sales, sell-through of higher cost inventory, negative fixed cost leverage from year-over-year volume declines, the impact of inflation, and the right sizing of our inventory.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses decreased to $63.3 million from $87.0 million in the six months ended July 2, 2022, driven primarily by an $18.3 million decrease in non-cash stock-based compensation expense, lower incentive accruals, and benefits from the cost reduction actions taken in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 and second quarter of fiscal 2023. SG&A as a percent of sales decreased to 20.1% from 21.8%. Excluding non-cash stock-based compensation expense, SG&A decreased by $5.4 million from the prior year period.

Net loss was $8.7 million, or ($0.08) per share, for the six months ended July 1, 2023, as compared to a net income of $1.5 million, or $0.01 per share, in the prior year period. Net loss margin was (2.7%) for the six months ended July 1, 2023, compared to a net income margin of 0.4% for the prior year period.

Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended July 1, 2023 was $42.0 million, down $54.6 million or 56.5% from $96.6 million for the six months ended July 2, 2022. Adjusted EBITDA margin for the six months ended July 1, 2023 decreased to 13.3% from 24.2% for the prior year period.

Balance Sheet, Cash Flow, and Liquidity

As of July 1, 2023, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $43.1 million and $75.0 million of borrowing availability under its $75.0 million revolving credit facility, giving the Company total liquidity of $118.1 million, up 44% from the first quarter of fiscal 2023. Total debt was $312.0 million as of July 1, 2023.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $36.3 million for the six months ended July 1, 2023 versus net cash used in operating activities of $15.1 million in the prior year period, driven by strong inventory management.

Capital expenditures totaled $13.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to $10.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2022. Capital expenditures totaled $23.4 million in the six months ended July 1, 2023 compared to $16.8 million in the prior year period. The increase in capital spending was primarily related to the Company's fiberglass capacity expansion initiatives, most notably the Kingston, Ontario manufacturing facility project.

Fiscal 2023 Outlook

Latham has updated and adjusted its net sales, adjusted EBITDA, and capital expenditures guidance ranges for the full year fiscal 2023. The Company's financial outlook reflects:

First half fiscal 2023 results
Current outlook for demand based on expected declines in the industry for U.S. new in-ground pool installations in 2023 vs 2022
Continued progress executing our strategy to drive material conversion from concrete to fiberglass swimming pools
Continued investment and momentum in our lead generation efforts and digital tools, positioning us well for the long-term
Benefits from our cost reduction, productivity, and continuous improvement initiatives
Disciplined capital investments with a focus on the completion of projects for the Kingston, Ontario and Seminole, Oklahoma fiberglass manufacturing facilities

	Updated Outlook		Prior Outlook
Metric	Low	High	Low	High
Net Sales	$570 million	$600 million	$565 million	$615 million
Adjusted EBITDA¹	$90 million	$100 million	$90 million	$110 million
Capital Expenditures	$32 million	$38 million	$35 million	$40 million

¹A reconciliation of Latham's projected Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss) for fiscal 2023 is not available due to uncertainty related to our future income tax expense.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We track our non-GAAP financial measures to monitor and manage our underlying financial performance. This news release includes the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, which are non-GAAP financial measures that exclude the impact of certain costs, losses, and gains that are required to be included in our profit and loss measures under GAAP. Although we believe these measures are useful to investors and analysts for the same reasons it is useful to management, as discussed below, these measures are neither a substitute for, nor superior to, U.S. GAAP financial measures or disclosures. Other companies may calculate similarly-titled non-GAAP measures differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. We have reconciled our historic Adjusted EBITDA to the applicable most comparable GAAP measure, net income (loss), in this news release.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin

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

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are non-GAAP financial measures and should not be considered as alternatives to net loss as a measure of financial performance or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, and they should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. You are encouraged to evaluate these adjustments and the reasons we consider them appropriate for supplemental analysis. In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in this news release. There can be no assurance that we will not modify the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin in the future, and any such modification may be material. In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, may not calculate Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin at all or may calculate Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin differently and accordingly, are not necessarily comparable to similarly entitled measures of other companies, which reduces the usefulness of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin as tools for comparison.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin have their limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin:

do not reflect every expenditure, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
do not reflect changes in our working capital needs;
do not reflect the interest expense, or the amounts necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our outstanding debt;
do not reflect income tax (benefit) expense, and because the payment of taxes is part of our operations, tax expense is a necessary element of our costs and ability to operate;
do not reflect non-cash stock-based compensation, which will remain a key element of our overall compensation package; and
do not reflect the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations.

Although depreciation and amortization are eliminated in the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin do not reflect any costs of such replacements.
