Latham Group, Inc. Reports Second Quarter Fiscal 2022 Financial Results

 

Delivers Second Quarter Year-over-Year Net Sales Growth of 14.3%

 

Repurchased 2 Million Shares for $15 million During the Second Quarter; $85 Million Remaining Under the Existing Authorization

 

Updates Fiscal 2022 Guidance

 

LATHAM, N.Y. – August 11, 2022– 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 of its fiscal year 2022 ended July 2, 2022.

 

Second Quarter Fiscal 2022 Highlights:

 

·Net sales of $206.8 million, up 14.3% year-over-year
·Net income of $4.3 million versus net loss of $53.6 million in the prior year period, representing a 2.1% net income margin
·Adjusted EBITDA of $48.7 million, up 13.5% year-over-year, representing a 23.5% Adjusted EBITDA margin

 

Six Months Fiscal 2022 Highlights:

 

·Net sales of $398.4 million, up 20.9% year-over-year
·

Net income of $1.5 million versus net loss of $45.1 million in the prior year period, representing a 0.4% net income margin

·Adjusted EBITDA of $96.6 million, up 26.5% year-over-year, representing a 24.2% Adjusted EBITDA margin

 

“We are pleased to deliver another strong quarter of net sales and Adjusted EBITDA growth, driven by demand for fiberglass pools as well as our cover and liner products. During the second quarter, we drove continued operational improvements, including increased North American fiberglass production, enhanced service levels and improved lead times, demonstrating the resiliency of our business. While we feel good about our first half fiscal 2022 results and the overall state of the business, the dynamic macro-economic environment, coupled with unseasonably wet weather in the second quarter, has resulted in softness in our in-ground swimming pool category, primarily our packaged pools products,” commented Scott Rajeski, President and Chief Executive Officer of Latham.

 

Mr. Rajeski continued, “That said, we are confident in our ability to deliver strong growth in the back half of the year. The dynamics of the large outdoor repair and remodel market remain attractive. We continue to drive consumer demand as we advance material conversion to fiberglass, which is underscored by our robust fiberglass backlog. Our branding and digital initiatives remain a key differentiator for us as we leverage our unique direct-to-consumer model, lead generation capabilities and exclusive dealer network to bolster our order pipeline.”

 

Second Quarter Fiscal 2022 Results

 

Net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2022 increased to $206.8 million, up $25.9 million or 14.3%, from $180.9 million in the prior year’s second quarter. The increase was primarily attributable to pricing actions to address inflation, partially offset by volume decreases, largely in packaged pools, which were

 

 

  

 

 

impacted by destocking in the wholesale distribution channel as a result of the current macro-economic environment and more days of unseasonable weather in certain regions limiting installation days.

 

Gross profit for the second quarter of fiscal 2022 increased to $67.6 million, up $9.2 million or 15.9%, from $58.4 million in the prior year’s second quarter, primarily due to an increase in net sales and a $3.8 million decrease in non-cash stock-based compensation expense. Gross margin increased to 32.7%, up from 32.3% in the prior year period, driven by benefits from pricing actions to address inflation, benefits from the build of inventory and lower non-cash stock-based compensation expense, partially offset by negative fixed cost leverage due to investments to support future growth, including fiberglass capacity expansion initiatives.

 

Selling, general, and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) decreased to $41.8 million from $95.3 million in the second quarter of 2021, driven primarily by a $55.3 million decrease in non-cash stock-based compensation expense as well as the absence of costs incurred in the prior year as a result of going public. These were partially offset by an increase in wages and related expenses. SG&A as a percentage of net sales decreased to 20.2% from 52.7%.

 

Net income was $4.3 million, or $0.04 per share compared to a net loss of $53.6 million, or ($0.49) per share, for the prior year’s second quarter, driven primarily by the reduction in non-cash stock-based compensation. Net income margin was 2.1%, compared to a net loss margin of 29.6% for the second quarter of fiscal 2021.

 

Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of fiscal 2022 was $48.7 million, up $5.9 million or 13.5%, from $42.8 million in the prior year’s second quarter primarily due to the increase in net sales, as well as the other factors described above. Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased to 23.5% from 23.7% for the prior year period.

 

Six Months Fiscal 2022 Highlights

 

Net sales for the six months ended July 2, 2022 increased to $398.4 million, up 68.8 million or 20.9%, from $329.6 million for the six months ended July 3, 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to pricing actions to address inflation.

 

Gross profit for the six months ended July 2, 2022, increased to $138.3 million, up $27.5 million or 24.8% from $110.8 million for the prior year period. Gross margin for the six months ended July 2, 2022 increased to 34.7%, compared to 33.6% for the prior year period primarily driven by pricing actions to address inflation, benefits from the build of inventory and lower non-cash stock-based compensation expense partially offset by negative fixed cost leverage due to investments to support future growth.

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to $87.0 million from $122.5 million in the six months ended July 3, 2021, driven primarily by a $41.0 million decrease in non-cash stock-based compensation expense, partially offset by an increase in ongoing public company costs, an increase in wages and related expenses. SG&A as a percent of sales decreased to 21.8% from 37.2%.

 

Net income was $1.5 million, or $0.01 per share, for the six months ended July 2, 2022, as compared to a net loss of $45.1 million, or ($0.41) per share, in the prior year period. Net income margin was 0.4% for the six months ended July 2, 2022, as compared to a net loss margin of 13.7% for the prior year period.

 

Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended July 2, 2022 was $96.6 million, up $20.2 million or 26.5%, from $76.4 million for the six months ended July 3, 2021. Adjusted EBITDA margin for the six months ended July 2, 2022 increased 100 bps to 24.2% from 23.2% for the prior year period.

 

Balance Sheet, Cash Flow and Liquidity

 

As of July 2, 2022, the Company had cash of $25.2 million, $75 million undrawn on its revolving credit facility, and total debt of $313.7 million.

 

 

 

 

 

During the second quarter of fiscal 2022, the Company repurchased 2 million shares of Common Stock totaling $15 million. As of July 2, 2022, $85 million remains under the existing share repurchase authorization.

 

Net cash used in operating activities was $15.1 million for the six months ended July 2, 2022 compared to $14.1 million provided in the prior year period.

 

Capital expenditures totaled $10.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to $8.4 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2021. The increase in capital spending was primarily related to its fiberglass capacity expansion initiatives. Capital expenditures totaled $16.8 million in the six months ended July 2, 2022 compared to $13.0 million in the prior year period.

 

Fiscal 2022 Outlook

 

Latham is revising its full year fiscal 2022 guidance for net sales, adjusted EBITDA, and capital expenditures. The updated financial outlook reflects the Company’s first half fiscal 2022 actual results; lower than expected in-ground pool sales, primarily driven by softness in packaged pools due to distribution channel inventory reduction and weather impact on installation schedules; robust fiberglass pool sales growth and strong performance in liners and covers categories; as well as ongoing continued execution of its strategic initiatives, including efforts to drive education and awareness of fiberglass led by the differentiated direct-to-consumer model.

 

    Updated Outlook   Prior Outlook
Metric   Low   High   Low   High
Net Sales   $750 million   $770 million   $850 million   $880 million
Adjusted EBITDA1   $165 million   $175 million   $185 million   $205 million
Capital Expenditures   $40 million   $50 million   $45 million   $60 million

 

 

1A reconciliation of Latham’s projected Adjusted EBITDA to net income for fiscal 2022 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, throughout 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 and to compare our performance against that of other companies using similar measures, and as a performance measure in certain employee incentive programs. 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 are non-cash items or which 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 on sale and disposal of property and equipment, (v) restructuring charges, (vi) stock-based compensation expense, (vii) unrealized (gains) losses on foreign currency transactions, (viii) strategic initiative costs, (ix) acquisition and integration related costs, (x) loss on extinguishment of debt, (xi) other, (xii) underwriting fees related to offering of common stock, (xiii) Odessa fire and (xiv) IPO costs.

 

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are non-GAAP financial measures and should not be considered as alternatives to net income 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. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin should not be construed to imply that our future results will be unaffected by any such adjustments. 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 equity compensation, which will remain a key element of our overall equity-based 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.
