Exhibit 99
Latham Group, Inc. Reports First Quarter Fiscal 2023 Financial Results
Affirms Fiscal 2023 Guidance
LATHAM, N.Y. – May 9, 2023– 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 first quarter of its fiscal year 2023 ended April 1, 2023.
First Quarter Fiscal 2023 Highlights:
| • | Net sales of $137.7 million, down 28.1% year-over-year |
| • | Net loss of $14.4 million versus net loss of $2.8 million in the prior year period, representing a 10.4% net loss margin |
| • | Adjusted EBITDA of $11.0 million, representing an 8.0% Adjusted EBITDA margin |
“Our operational execution enabled us to deliver first quarter results above our expectations in spite of the continued challenging macroenvironment and a difficult year-over-year comparison,” said Scott Rajeski, President and Chief Executive Officer of Latham. “We have taken deliberate actions to right size our costs and inventories in response to the market conditions. We have also ramped up our digital marketing efforts that produced year-over-year increases in our website activity and leads for our dealer partners.”
Mr. Rajeski continued, “We continue to make progress in driving material conversion from concrete to fiberglass swimming pools. In 2022, we grew fiberglass pool volumes in a down U.S. in-ground pool installation market, and we expect that continued momentum in fiberglass will position us to outperform the market again this year.”
“We are uniquely positioned to drive consumer demand in a difficult macroeconomic environment as we expand our dealer base, deepen our existing dealer partnerships, and execute our direct-to-homeowner and fiberglass conversion strategies. These efforts, combined with ongoing productivity gains from our lean and value engineering initiatives, position us well to deliver on our fiscal 2023 outlook,” Mr. Rajeski concluded.
First Quarter Fiscal 2023 Results
Net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2023 were $137.7 million, down $53.9 million, or 28.1% from first quarter of fiscal 2022. The decrease was primarily attributable to volume declines as the pool market returned to pre-2020 seasonality, the wholesale channel continued to destock packaged pool inventory, and macroeconomic challenges continued.
Gross profit for the first quarter of fiscal 2023 was $33.4 million, down $37.3 million, or 52.8% from the prior fiscal year’s first quarter. Gross margin was 24.2%, compared to 36.9% in the prior year period. Gross profit and gross margin were driven by reduced sales, negative fixed cost leverage from volume declines, the impact of inflation, and the right sizing of our inventory.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) decreased to $33.1 million from $45.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2022, driven primarily by a $9.4 million decrease in stock-based compensation expense and benefits from the cost reduction actions taken in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022. SG&A as a percentage of net sales increased to 24.0% from 23.6%. Excluding non-cash stock-based compensation expense, SG&A decreased by $2.7 million from the prior year period.
Net loss was $14.4 million, or ($0.13) per share compared to a net loss of $2.8 million, or ($0.02) per share, for the prior fiscal year’s first quarter. Net loss margin was 10.4%, compared to a net loss margin of 1.5% for the first quarter of fiscal 2022.
Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of fiscal 2023 was $11.0 million, down $37.0 million or 77.0%, from the prior fiscal year’s first quarter, primarily driven by the decrease in gross profit and partially offset by the reduction in SG&A expenses. Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased to 8.0% from 25.0% for the prior year period.
Balance Sheet, Cash Flow, and Liquidity
As of April 1, 2023, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $55.0 million and $27.0 million of borrowing availability under its $75.0 million revolving credit facility, giving the Company total liquidity of $82.0 million as it enters peak pool selling season, a period during which the Company typically generates the majority of its cash. Total debt was $360.5 million as of April 1, 2023.
Net cash used in operating activities was $14.5 million for the fiscal quarter ended April 1, 2023 versus $57.5 million in the prior fiscal year first quarter, primarily driven by a decrease in inventories to meet demand outlook while maintaining lead times and service levels.
Capital expenditures totaled $9.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to $6.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2022. The increase in capital spending was primarily related to the Company’s fiberglass capacity expansion initiatives, most notably the Kingston manufacturing facility project.
Fiscal 2023 Outlook
Latham affirms its existing net sales, adjusted EBITDA, and capital expenditures guidance for the full year fiscal 2023. The Company’s financial outlook reflects:
| • | First quarter fiscal 2023 results; |
| • | The impact of macroeconomic challenges on consumer spending and demand, resulting in anticipated declines in the industry for U.S. new in-ground pool installations; |
| • | Normalization of packaged pool channel inventory in the wholesale distribution channel from elevated levels, which is expected to remain a headwind through at least the first half of 2023; |
| • | Continued progress executing our strategy to drive material conversion from concrete to fiberglass swimming pools, supported by our continued momentum on our lead generation efforts and digital tools; |
| • | Benefits from previously announced cost reduction actions and continuous improvement initiatives; and |
| • | Disciplined capital investments with a focus on the completion of projects for the Kingston, Ontario and Seminole, Oklahoma fiberglass manufacturing facilities. |

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 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.
