  • The company unveiled the XT23 crossover model and the revolutionary Dockstar Handling System

  • Gross margin grew to 27.6 percent for fiscal 2016, a 370 basis point improvement over the prior fiscal year

  • Fiscal 2016 fully diluted pro forma adjusted net income per share increased 57.0 percent versus the prior year to $1.24

Terry McNew, MasterCraft’s President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We ended the year with continued momentum, delivering strong top- and bottom-line results. Our core MasterCraft business continues to perform, and with our relentless focus on operational excellence and continuous improvement, we’re driving further efficiency gains. Moreover, we continue to innovate as a company. Examples during the fourth quarter include the launch of our new Dockstar Handling System, which we believe is a revolutionary product feature, as well as the XT23, which we think is a category-defying crossover boat. We will continue MasterCraft’s innovation leadership in fiscal 2017 with the introduction of three additional new models and a number of exciting new product features.”

Fourth-Quarter Results
Net sales for the fourth quarter ended June 30, 2016, were down $1.5 million, or 2.7 percent, compared to $54.9 million for the prior-year period. MasterCraft-only net sales for the fourth quarter, which exclude the terminated Hydra-Sports manufacturing contract from the prior year, increased $2.6 million, or 5.2 percent, to $53.4 million from $50.8 million in the prior-year period. The increase was primarily due to a rise in MasterCraft unit volume of 37 units, or 5.9 percent.

Said McNew, “MasterCraft delivered continued revenue growth in the fourth quarter, driven by strong demand for our all new X23, X26, and NXT22 models. While international markets have been challenging, domestic demand for our boats remains solid and we continue to focus on delivering profitable, sustainable market share growth and dealer profitability across our product line.”

Gross profit for the fiscal 2016 fourth quarter increased $1.2 million, or 9.4 percent, to $14.0 million, compared to $12.8 million in the prior-year period. Gross margin rose to 26.3 percent from 23.3 percent for the prior-year period. The 300 basis point increase primarily stemmed from cost reductions driven by a culture focused on improving efficiency, sales of higher-end content option packages, and lower warranty costs. In addition, the company replaced its Hydra-Sports volume with higher-margin MasterCraft units.

Selling and marketing expense was relatively stable at $2.1 million for the fourth quarter ended June 30, 2016. General and administrative expense totaled $4.2 million versus $3.8 million for the prior-year period. This increase resulted mainly from increased legal costs, stock-based compensation and costs associated with the payment of the special cash dividend partially offset by decreases in professional fees.

Fiscal fourth-quarter net income totaled $4.8 million, up from $2.5 million in the year-earlier quarter. Fiscal 2016 fourth quarter adjusted net income increased 46.2 percent to $5.7 million, or $0.30 per share, on a pro forma, fully diluted weighted average share count of 18.6 million shares. This compares with $3.9 million, or $0.20 per share, in the prior-year period. Fiscal fourth-quarter adjusted EBITDA margin rose 280 basis points to 18.6 percent from 15.8 percent in the prior-year period. Fiscal 2016 fourth quarter adjusted EBITDA was $9.9 million, a 23.8 percent increase from $8.0 million in the prior-year period. See “Non-GAAP Measures” below for a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin and adjusted net income to the most directly comparable financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP.

During the fourth quarter, the company’s Board of Directors declared a special cash dividend of $4.30 per share of common stock. The dividend totaled an aggregate payment of $79.9 million and was funded with cash on hand and borrowings under a new senior secured credit facility.

Fiscal 2016 Results
Net sales for fiscal 2016 were up $7.2 million, or 3.4 percent, compared to $214.4 million for the prior fiscal year. MasterCraft-only net sales for fiscal 2016, which exclude the terminated Hydra-Sports manufacturing contract from the prior year, increased $21.7 million, or 10.9 percent, to $221.6 million from $199.9 million in the prior fiscal year. The gain was primarily due to a rise in MasterCraft unit volume of 195 units, or 7.7 percent. Net sales per MasterCraft unit grew by 3.8 percent, chiefly stemming from greater adoption of higher-end option packages, demand for new models, in particular the X23, X26 and NXT22, and price increases.

Gross profit for fiscal 2016 increased $9.9 million, or 19.3 percent, to $61.1 million, compared to $51.2 million in the prior fiscal year. Gross margin rose to 27.6 percent from 23.9 percent for the prior fiscal year. The 370 basis point increase primarily stemmed from cost reductions driven by a culture focused on improving efficiency, sales of higher-end content option packages and lower warranty costs. In addition, the company replaced its Hydra-Sports volume with higher-margin MasterCraft units.

Selling and marketing expense for fiscal 2016 increased $1.1 million, or 12.8 percent, to $9.7 million, compared to $8.6 million in the prior fiscal year. The increase was primarily due to investments in marketing. General and administrative expense totaled $29.2 million versus $18.5 million for fiscal 2015. This expected increase resulted primarily from $13.7 million of stock-based compensation and increases in costs associated with being a public company, partially offset by the elimination of $5.7 million in transaction costs incurred during fiscal 2015 related to our recapitalization activities.

Fiscal 2016 net income totaled $10.2 million, up from $5.5 million in the prior fiscal year. Fiscal 2016 adjusted net income increased 58.1 percent to $23.4 million, or $1.24 per share on a pro forma, fully diluted weighted average share count of 18.8 million shares. This compares with $14.8 million, or $0.79 per share, a year earlier. Adjusted EBITDA margin rose 280 basis points to 18.6 percent from 15.8 percent in the prior fiscal year. Fiscal 2016 adjusted EBITDA was $41.2 million, a 30.8 percent increase from $31.5 million in the prior fiscal year. See “Non-GAAP Measures” below for a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin and adjusted net income to the most directly comparable financials measures presented in accordance with GAAP.

Key Milestones
During the quarter, MasterCraft announced its revolutionary new Dockstar Handling System. “Dockstar enables boat drivers of any ability to confidently drive in reverse and more easily navigate tight docks and crowded marinas,” said McNew. “The Dockstar system improves the on-water experience for boaters and gives the MasterCraft portfolio the exceptional slow speed handling characteristics previously only found on outboard and stern drive configurations.”

MasterCraft also unveiled the new XT23, the company’s latest multi-sport model. Designed to be a do-it-all crossover, the new XT23 will anchor MasterCraft’s new XT line of boats targeting the sweet spot between the company’s entry-level NXT line and its award-winning, premium X series.

McNew continued, “Embracing the idea that endless possibilities result in endless fun, the XT23’s intuitive digital dashboard interface instantly dials in the size and shape of the wake for any sport on the water: wakeboarding, waterskiing, wakesurfing, towsports or tubing. Equipped with MasterCraft’s award-winning Gen 2 Surf System, the XT23 can be loaded up with plenty of gear and up to sixteen friends for an action-packed day on the water.”

Outlook
“We continue to deliver solid performance, and we target continued organic growth in fiscal 2017,” McNew concluded. “As a company, we are steadfast in our five-pronged growth strategy: developing new and innovative products in core markets; further penetrating the entry-level and mid-line segment of the performance sport boat category; capturing share from adjacent boating categories; strengthening our dealer network; and driving margin expansion through continuous operational excellence.”

For the fiscal year ending June 30, 2017, MasterCraft expects net sales growth in the low- to mid-single digits, and continued growth in adjusted EBITDA margin with a target in the low 19 percent range. Net sales and EBITDA growth will result in continued growth in net income and adjusted net income, partially offset by increased interest expense due to our refinancing completed in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016.

Non-GAAP Measures
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 and other items that we do not consider to be indicative of our ongoing operations, including change in common stock warrant fair value, fees and expenses related to the Company’s initial public offering, our stock-based compensation and the results of operations of our terminated Hydra-Sports manufacturing contract. We define adjusted net income as net (loss) income adjusted to eliminate certain non-cash charges and other items that we do not consider to be indicative of our ongoing operations, including change in common stock warrant fair value, fees and expenses related to the Company’s initial public offering, our stock-based compensation and the results of operations of our terminated Hydra-Sports manufacturing contract and an adjustment for income tax expense at a normalized annual effective tax rate. We define adjusted EBITDA margin as adjusted EBITDA expressed as a percentage of MasterCraft sales. Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA margin are not measures of net (loss) income or operating income as determined under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, which we refer to as “GAAP.” Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income are not measures of performance in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or operating cash flows determined in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of cash flow for management’s discretionary use. We believe that the inclusion of EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income is appropriate to provide additional information to investors because securities analysts, noteholders and other investors use these non GAAP financial 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 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 GAAP, provides a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business than GAAP alone measures. We believe adjusted net income assists our board of directors, management and investors in comparing our net income on a consistent basis from period to period because it removes non-cash items and items not indicative of our ongoing operations. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income 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 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 and adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters we do not consider to be indicative of our ongoing operations, but may nonetheless have a material impact on our results of operations, including the operations related to our Hydra-Sports manufacturing contract for periods prior to its termination.

In addition, because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, including companies in our industry.

The following table sets forth a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to net income as determined in accordance with GAAP for the periods indicated:

(c) Represents legal and advisory fees for our litigation with Malibu Boats, LLC for fiscal 2016 and settlement of a litigation matter for fiscal 2015.
(d) Represents receipt of a one-time payment to settle certain litigation matters.
(e) Represents the operating income attributable to the operations of our Hydra-Sports business and the related manufacturing agreement, adjusted to exclude depreciation and amortization related to Hydra-Sports. We previously divested the Hydra-Sports business in June 2012, but continued to manufacture Hydra-Sports boats for the purchaser of the business pursuant to an agreement that expired on June 30, 2015 (and which was not renewed). This adjustment was calculated by identifying the applicable cost of sales and operating expenses directly attributable to the Hydra-Sports business for such period, excluding any corporate overhead or other shared costs.
(f) We define adjusted EBITDA margin as adjusted EBITDA expressed as a percentage of MasterCraft sales.
