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

 

Delivers Third Quarter Year-over-Year Net Sales Growth of 16.9%

 

Implements Cost Reduction Plan, Building Upon Ongoing Lean and Value Engineering Initiatives

 

Provides Fiberglass Manufacturing Capacity Update

 

Updates Fiscal 2022 Guidance

 

LATHAM, N.Y. – November 10, 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 third quarter of its fiscal year 2022 ended October 1, 2022.

 

Third Quarter Fiscal 2022 Highlights:

·Net sales of $189.4 million, up 16.9% year-over-year
·Net income of $11.9 million versus net loss of $11.3 million in the prior year period, representing a 6.3% net income margin
·Adjusted EBITDA of $42.3 million, up 17.0% year-over-year, representing a 22.3% Adjusted EBITDA margin

 

Nine Months Fiscal 2022 Highlights:

·Net sales of $587.8 million, up 19.6% year-over-year
·Net income of $13.3 million versus net loss of $56.4 million in the prior year period, representing a 2.3% net income margin
·Adjusted EBITDA of $138.9 million, up 23.5% year-over-year, representing a 23.6% Adjusted EBITDA margin

 

“We were pleased with our team’s ability to deliver another quarter of growth,” commented Scott Rajeski, President and Chief Executive Officer of Latham. “In the third quarter, we drove a year-over-year improvement in North American fiberglass production, returned to normal lead times across our non-fiberglass product portfolio, and continued realization of the benefits of our pricing actions. As market conditions continue to evolve, we are prudently managing our costs, while continuing to execute on our topline-growth initiatives that we believe will drive our business over the long-term. This includes our efforts to drive consumer awareness of fiberglass pools, generate purchase-ready leads for our dealers, and expand our fiberglass manufacturing capacity. We believe this balanced approach will enable us to maintain our industry-leading position, support the material conversion to fiberglass, and ultimately emerge from the current environment stronger.”

 

Third Quarter Fiscal 2022 Results

 

Net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 increased to $189.4 million, up $27.4 million or 16.9%, from $162.0 million in the prior year’s third quarter. The increase was primarily attributable to pricing actions to address inflation, partially offset by volume decreases in packaged pools, which were impacted by continued destocking in the wholesale distribution channel.

 

Gross profit for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 increased to $58.9 million, up $7.9 million or 15.5%, from $51.0 million in the prior year’s third quarter, primarily due to an increase in net sales and a $1.2 million decrease in non-cash stock-based compensation expense. Gross margin decreased to 31.1%, from

 

 

 

 

31.5% in the prior year period, driven by pricing actions that offset inflation, although not at a magnitude to hold gross margins year-over-year, and negative fixed cost leverage, partially offset by benefits from the build of inventory to return to normal lead times.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) decreased to $26.7 million from $48.1 million in the third quarter of 2021, driven primarily by a $19.4 million decrease in non-cash stock-based compensation expense. SG&A as a percentage of net sales decreased to 14.1% from 29.7%.

Net income was $11.9 million, or $0.10 per share compared to a net loss of $11.3 million, or ($0.10) per share, for the prior year’s third quarter, driven primarily by the reduction in non-cash stock-based compensation. Net income margin was 6.3%, compared to a net loss margin of (7.0%) for the third quarter of fiscal 2021.

Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 was $42.3 million, up $6.2 million or 17.0%, from $36.1 million in the prior year’s third quarter primarily due to the increase in net sales, as well as the other factors described above. Adjusted EBITDA margin was flat year-over-year at 22.3% from the prior year period.

Nine Months Fiscal 2022 Highlights

Net sales for the nine months ended October 1, 2022 increased to $587.8 million, up $96.2 million or 19.6%, from $491.6 million from the comparable prior year period. The increase was primarily attributable to pricing actions to address inflation.

Gross profit for the nine months ended October 1, 2022, increased to $197.1 million, up $35.3 million or 21.9% from $161.8 million for the prior year period. Gross margin for the nine months ended October 1, 2022 increased to 33.5%, compared to 32.9% for the prior year period primarily driven by lower non-cash stock-based compensation expense and benefits from the build of inventory, partially offset by pricing actions that offset inflation, although not at a magnitude to hold gross margins year-over-year.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to $113.8 million from $170.5 million in the prior year period, driven primarily by a $60.4 million decrease in non-cash stock-based compensation expense. SG&A as a percent of sales decreased to 19.4% from 34.7%.

Net income was $13.3 million, or $0.12 per share, for the nine months ended October 1, 2022, as compared to a net loss of $56.4 million, or ($0.51) per share, in the prior year period. Net income margin was 2.3% for the nine months ended October 1, 2022, as compared to a net loss margin of (11.5%) for the prior year period.

Adjusted EBITDA for the nine months ended October 1, 2022 was $138.9 million, up $26.4 million or 23.5%, from $112.5 million for prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA margin for the nine months ended October 1, 2022 increased to 23.6% from 22.9% for the prior year period.

Balance Sheet, Cash Flow and Liquidity

As of October 1, 2022, the Company had cash of $30.6 million, $75 million undrawn on its revolving credit facility, and total debt of $313.3 million.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $5.2 million for the nine months ended October 1, 2022 compared to $29.4 million in the prior year period.

Capital expenditures totaled $12.2 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to $6.2 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2021. The increase in capital spending was primarily related to the Company’s fiberglass capacity expansion initiatives, most notably the Kingston manufacturing facility project. Capital expenditures totaled $29.0 million in the nine months ended October 1, 2022 compared to $19.2 million in the prior year period.

 

 

 

Recent Developments

Cost Reduction Actions

Building upon Latham’s ongoing lean and value engineering initiatives, and in response to current market conditions, the Company has today announced the implementation of several near-term cost reduction actions. These include optimizing production and shift schedules, implementing a workforce reduction, and streamlining its cover and liner manufacturing footprint with the closure of its Bossier City, Louisiana facility expected in the first quarter of fiscal 2023.

As a result of these actions, the Company expects to incur approximately $2.0 million in total charges for employee severance and related costs and fixed asset and facility-related expenses. Latham expects to recognize these charges in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 into the first quarter of fiscal 2023.

The cost reduction actions are expected to yield annualized cost savings of approximately $12 million beginning in fiscal 2023.

Fiberglass Manufacturing Update

Subsequent to quarter end, Latham acquired fiberglass pool manufacturing assets in Seminole, Oklahoma. The new facility will replace lost manufacturing capacity in the Company’s Odessa, TX fiberglass manufacturing facility and is expected to reduce freight costs, tighten lead times, and enable Latham to better service homeowners in the U.S. Southwest. The Company expects to begin manufacturing its fiberglass pools in the Seminole facility early 2023.

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 continued volume declines in packaged pools as wholesalers destock existing inventory; softer demand for pools as some homeowners take more time on purchase decisions and establishing installation dates in light of the current macroenvironment; and ongoing execution of the Company’s strategic initiatives, including efforts to drive the material conversion to fiberglass and leverage its unique direct-to-homeowner digital strategies to generate leads for its dealer partners.

  Updated Outlook Prior Outlook
Metric Low High Low High
Net Sales $685 million $700 million $750 million $770 million
Adjusted EBITDA1 $140 million $145 million $165 million $175 million
Capital Expenditures $40 million $45 million $40 million $50 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.
