MarineMax Reports Record Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2022 Results

MarineMax, Inc. (NYSE: HZO), the world’s largest recreational boat and yacht retailer, today announced record results for its fourth quarter and full year ended September 30, 2022.

Revenue grew over 16% to a record $536.8 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, from $462.3 million for the comparable quarter last year. Same-store sales grew over 11%. This growth was despite the difficulties presented by Hurricane Ian which impacted the Company’s largest market, Florida. The revenue growth overall was driven by continued strong demand for boating and our selective acquisitions with exceptional strategic growth results.

Net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 was $38.4 million, or $1.73 per diluted share, compared to $32.8 million, or $1.45 per diluted share in the comparable prior year period. Included in the quarter ended September 30, 2022, is $4.8 million of expenses, or $0.17 per diluted share, net of tax, associated with Hurricane Ian related expenses. Excluding Hurricane Ian related expenses, net income rose 28% to $42.0 million or $1.90 per diluted share for the quarter ended September 30, 2022.

For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022, revenue increased 12% to $2.31 billion compared with $2.06 billion for the prior fiscal year. The revenue increase was driven primarily by successful strategic acquisitions completed during the fiscal year and by strong same-store sales growth of 5% which was on top of a 13% increase last year.

Net income for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022, was $198.0 million, or $8.84 per diluted share, compared to net income of $155.0 million, or $6.78 per diluted share in the prior year. Included in fiscal 2022, are $4.8 million of expenses, or $0.16 per diluted share, net of tax, associated with Hurricane Ian. Excluding Hurricane Ian related expenses, net income rose 30% to $201.6 million or $9.00 per diluted share for the year ended September 30, 2022.

W. Brett McGill, Chief Executive Officer and President stated, “As with any natural disaster such as Hurricane Ian, MarineMax is committed to supporting the impacted families and communities. Our team’s training, past experiences, and proactive efforts were instrumental in not only preparing our operations for the storm but also providing on-the-ground assistance in the impacted areas.”

Mr. McGill continued, “The extraordinary efforts of MarineMax’s team members, coupled with the ongoing execution of our strategic initiatives, generated record fiscal year revenue of more than $2.3 billion, our highest yearly gross margin since inception, and record adjusted earnings per share of $9.00. We are very proud of these outstanding achievements and believe this further demonstrates the resiliency and diversification of our higher margin platform that is benefitting from our global market presence, premium brands, valuable real estate locations, exceptional customer service, technology advancements, strategic acquisitions, and our unwavering commitment to build on our strong company culture. The recent completion of the IGY Marina’s acquisition further strengthens our higher margin platform and resilient revenue streams for the future.”

Mr. McGill continued, “While certain segments of our industry may begin to feel the effects of economic tightening, the premium segments which we operate within, historically have been far more resilient. Furthermore, our industry-leading balance sheet is extremely well-capitalized, which was further strengthened by our record 2022 results and supported the acquisition of multiple higher margin businesses during the year. This financial flexibility allows us to selectively acquire and strategically grow our business while expanding company-wide margins. As a direct result of our strategic growth plan, we are now positioned with multiple growth platforms which we believe will drive sustainable long-term shareholder value.”

Fiscal 2023 Guidance

Based on current business conditions, retail trends, and other factors, the Company currently expects earnings per diluted share to be in the range of $7.90 to $8.40 for fiscal 2023, including the recently announced IGY Marina’s acquisition. This compares to non-GAAP adjusted diluted earnings per share of $9.00 in fiscal 2022. The adjustment to fiscal 2022 reflects the removal of Hurricane Ian expenses. These expectations do not consider, or give effect for, material acquisitions, other than IGY, that may be completed by the Company during fiscal 2023 or other unforeseen events, including changes in global economic conditions.

Non-GAAP Financial Measure

This press release, along with the above Supplemental Financial Information table, contains “Adjusted net income,” which is a non-GAAP financial measure as defined under applicable securities legislation. In determining this measure, the Company excludes certain items which are otherwise included in determining the comparable GAAP financial measure. The Company believes this non-GAAP financial measure is a key performance indicator that improves the period-to-period comparability of the Company’s results and provides investors with more insight into, and an additional tool to understand and assess, the performance of the Company's ongoing core business operations. Investors and other readers are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measure and the above reconciliation and should consider the non-GAAP financial measure as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for or as a superior measure to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
