MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included herein.
Malibu Boats, Inc. is a Delaware corporation with its principal offices in Loudon, Tennessee. We use the terms “Malibu,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” “our” or similar references to refer to Malibu Boats, Inc., its subsidiary, Malibu Boats Holdings, LLC, or the LLC, and its subsidiary Malibu Boats, LLC, or Boats, LLC and its consolidated subsidiaries, including Cobalt Boats, LLC, PB Holdco, LLC, through which we acquired the assets of Pursuit, and MBG Holdco, Inc., through which we acquired all of the outstanding stock of Maverick Boat Group, Inc.
Overview
We are a leading designer, manufacturer and marketer of a diverse range of recreational powerboats, including performance sport boats, sterndrive and outboard boats. Our product portfolio of premium brands is used for a broad range of recreational boating activities including, among others, water sports, such as water skiing, wakeboarding and wake surfing, as well as general recreational boating and fishing. Our passion for consistent innovation, which has led to proprietary technology such as Surf Gate, has allowed us to expand the market for our products by introducing consumers to new and exciting recreational activities. We design products that appeal to an expanding range of recreational boaters and water sports enthusiasts whose passion for boating and water sports is a key aspect of their lifestyle and provide consumers with a better customer-inspired experience. With performance, quality, value and multi-purpose features, our product portfolio has us well positioned to broaden our addressable market and achieve our goal of increasing our market share in the recreational boating industry.
We currently sell our boats under eight brands as shown in the table below, and we report our results of operations under three reportable segments, Malibu, Saltwater Fishing and Cobalt.
| Segment | Brands | % of Net Sales Six Months Ended December 31, 2025 | Fiscal year ended June 30, 2025 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Malibu | Malibu | 39.0% | 38.7% |
| Axis | |||
| Saltwater Fishing | Pursuit | 33.8% | 34.6% |
| Maverick | |||
| Cobia | |||
| Pathfinder | |||
| Hewes | |||

Our Malibu segment participates in the manufacturing, distribution, marketing and sale throughout the world of Malibu and Axis performance sports boats. Our flagship Malibu boats offer our latest innovations in performance, comfort and convenience, and are designed for consumers seeking a premium performance sport boat experience. As of December 31, 2025, we are among the market leaders in the United States in the performance sport boat category through our Malibu and Axis brands. Our Axis boats appeal to consumers who desire a more affordable performance sport boat product but still demand high performance, functional simplicity and the option to upgrade key features. Retail prices of our Malibu and Axis boats typically range from $80,000 to $300,000.
Our Saltwater Fishing segment participates in the manufacturing, distribution, marketing and sale throughout the world of Pursuit boats and the Maverick Boat Group family of boats (Maverick, Cobia, Pathfinder and Hewes). Our Pursuit boats expand our product offerings into the saltwater outboard fishing market and include center console, dual console and offshore models. Our Maverick Boat Group family of boats are highly complementary to Pursuit, expanding our saltwater outboard offerings with a strong focus in length segments under 30 feet. As of December 31, 2025, we are among the market leaders in the fiberglass outboard fishing boat category with the brands in our Saltwater Fishing segment. Retail prices for our Saltwater Fishing boats typically range from $45,000 to $1,400,000.
Our Cobalt segment participates in the manufacturing, distribution, marketing and sale throughout the world of Cobalt boats. Our Cobalt boats consist of mid to large-sized luxury cruisers and bowriders that we believe offer the ultimate experience in comfort, performance and quality. As of December 31, 2025, we are among the market leaders in the United States in the 20’ - 40’ segment of the sterndrive boat category through our Cobalt brand. Retail prices for our Cobalt boats typically range from $75,000 to $625,000.
We sell our boats through a dealer network that we believe is among the strongest in the recreational powerboat industry. As of June 30, 2025, our worldwide distribution channel consisted of over 325 dealer locations globally. Our dealer base is an important part of our consumers’ experience, our marketing efforts and our brands. We devote significant time and resources to find, develop and improve the performance of our dealers and believe our dealer network gives us a distinct competitive advantage. We had one dealer that represented more than 10% of our consolidated net sales in fiscal year 2025 and the first half of fiscal year 2026, OneWater Marine, Inc.

Outlook
The recreational power boat industry continues to be challenged by macro-economic factors, including inflation and high interest rates, that have increased the cost of production and taken many interest rate sensitive buyers out of the market. In the past year, additional tariffs have also been introduced or proposed, as discussed below, and we are monitoring the impact they may have on cost of production, pricing and demand. Simultaneously, less price sensitive buyers have been purchasing larger, more feature-rich boats with higher average selling prices.
Due to high dealer flooring costs and a continued soft retail environment, we expect our dealers to reduce their inventories further in fiscal 2026. Additionally, we expect the retail market to continue to decline in fiscal 2026 due to continued macroeconomic uncertainty.
We aim to increase our market share across the boating categories in which we compete through new product development, improved distribution, new models, and innovative features. We believe our strong brands, new product pipeline, strong dealer network and ability to increase production will allow us to maintain, and potentially expand, our leading market positions.
Our financial results and operations have been, and will continue to be, impacted by events outside of our control, including trade policies and tariffs, inflationary pressures, interest rates, material shortages, weather events and global economic uncertainty. The current international trade and regulatory environment is subject to significant ongoing uncertainty. Last year, the U.S. presidential administration announced substantial new tariffs affecting a wide range of products and jurisdictions and has indicated an intention to continue negotiating trade policies. In response, some countries have implemented, and other countries may implement, countermeasures in response to U.S. tariffs. We estimate that 18-20% of our cost of sales are sourced from outside the United States and thus we have the potential to be materially impacted by tariffs in future periods. We are continuing to monitor the potential long-term impact of tariffs and are taking a proactive approach to mitigating material supply chain risks. We expect additional material costs to be incurred in fiscal year 2026 due to new tariff exposure of approximately 1.5% to 3% of cost of sales, assuming current tariff rates. We expect to largely offset these added costs via price increases.
In the near term, we expect to continue to experience reduced retail consumer demand for our product and on-going pressure from dealers to reduce dealer inventories. However, we will maintain our disciplined approach to dealer health and leverage our cash generation to continue investing in the business.
Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations
We believe that our results of operations and our growth prospects are affected by a number of factors, such as the economic environment and consumer demand for our products, our ability to develop new products and innovate, our product mix, our ability to manage manufacturing costs, sales cycles and inventory levels, the strength of our dealer network, our ability to offer dealer financing and incentives and our vertical integration efforts. We discuss each of these factors in more detail under the heading “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations--Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations” in our Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2025. While we do not have control of all factors affecting our results from operations, we work diligently to influence and manage those factors which we can impact to enhance our results of operations.
Components of Results of Operations
Net Sales
We generate revenue from the sale of boats to our dealers. The substantial majority of our net sales are derived from the sale of boats, including optional features included at the time of the initial wholesale purchase of the boat. Net sales consists of the following:
- Gross sales from:
- *Boat and trailer sales—*consists of sales of boats and trailers to our dealer network. Nearly all of our boat sales include optional feature upgrades purchased by the consumer, which increase the average selling price of our boats; and
- *Parts and other sales—*consists of sales of replacement and aftermarket boat parts and accessories to our dealer network; and consists of royalty income earned from license agreements with various boat manufacturers, including Nautique, Chaparral, Mastercraft, and Tige related to the use of our intellectual property.
- Net sales are net of:
- *Sales returns—*consists primarily of contractual repurchases of boats either repossessed by the floor plan financing provider from the dealer or returned by the dealer under our warranty program; and
- *Discounts, rebates and free flooring—*consists of discounts, rebates and free flooring, we provide to our dealers based on sales of eligible products. For our Malibu, Cobalt and Saltwater Fishing segments, if a domestic dealer meets its quarterly commitment volume, as well as other terms of the dealer performance program, the dealer is entitled to a specified discount off invoice for eligible wholesale volume purchased during the period. If a dealer meets its quarter, semi-annual or annual retail volume goals, the dealer is entitled to a specific rebate applied to their wholesale volume purchased. For Malibu, Cobalt and select Saltwater Fishing models, our dealers that take delivery of current model year boats may also be entitled to have us pay the interest to floor the boat for a period of time, which incentive we refer to as "free flooring". From time to time, we may extend the flooring program to eligible models beyond the offseason period.
Cost of Sales
Our cost of sales includes all of the costs to manufacture our products, including raw materials, components, supplies, direct labor and factory overhead. For components and accessories manufactured by third-party vendors, such costs represent the amounts invoiced by the vendors. Shipping costs and depreciation expense related to manufacturing equipment and facilities are also included in cost of sales. Warranty costs associated with the repair or replacement of our boats under warranty are also included in cost of sales.
Operating Expenses
Our operating expenses include selling and marketing, general and administrative costs, amortization costs, and impairment costs. Each of these items includes personnel and related expenses, supplies, non-manufacturing overhead, third-party professional fees and various other operating expenses. Further, selling and marketing expenditures include the cost of advertising and various promotional sales incentive programs. General and administrative expenses include, among other things, salaries, benefits and other personnel related expenses for employees engaged in product development, engineering, finance, information technology, human resources and executive management. Other costs include outside legal and accounting fees, investor relations, risk management (insurance) and other administrative costs. General and administrative expenses also include product development expenses associated with our vertical integration initiative and acquisition or integration related expenses. Amortization expenses are associated with the amortization of intangibles.
Other Expense Income, Net
Other expense (income), net consists of interest expense and other income or expense, net. Interest expense consists of interest charged under our outstanding debt and amortization of deferred financing costs on our credit facilities. Other income or expense includes adjustments to our tax receivable agreement liability and sublease income.
Income Taxes
MBI is subject to U.S. federal and state income tax in multiple jurisdictions with respect to our allocable share of any net taxable income of the LLC. The LLC is a pass-through entity for federal purposes but incurs income tax in certain state jurisdictions. Maverick Boat Group is separately subject to U.S. federal and state income tax with respect to its net taxable income.
Net (loss) income Attributable to Non-controlling Interest
As of each of December 31, 2025 and 2024, we had a 98.6% and a 98.4%, respectively, controlling economic interest and 100% voting interest in the LLC and, therefore, we consolidate the LLC's operating results for financial statement purposes. Net (loss) income attributable to non-controlling interest represents the portion of net (loss) income attributable to the non-controlling LLC members.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended December 31, 2025 to the Three Months Ended December 31, 2024
Net Sales
Net sales for the three months ended December 31, 2025 decreased $11.7 million, or 5.8%, to $188.6 million as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024. The decrease in net sales was driven primarily by decreased unit volumes across all segments resulting primarily from lower wholesale shipments, and driven by an unfavorable model mix in our Malibu segment and an unfavorable segment mix overall, partially offset by a favorable model mix in our Cobalt and Saltwater Fishing segments and inflation-driven year-over-year price increases. Unit volume for the three months ended December 31, 2025, decreased 116 units, or 9.5%, to 1,106 units as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024. Our unit volume decreased primarily due to lower wholesale shipments across all segments driven by lower retail activity.
Net sales attributable to our Malibu segment decreased $3.5 million, or 4.7%, to $70.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024. Unit volumes attributable to our Malibu segment decreased 12 units for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024, primarily due to lower wholesale shipments driven by lower retail activity during the period. The decrease in net sales was driven by a decrease in units and an unfavorable model mix, partially offset by inflation-driven year-over-year price increases.
Net sales attributable to our Saltwater Fishing segment decreased $4.8 million, or 6.8%, to $65.3 million, for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024. Unit volumes attributable to our Saltwater Fishing segment decreased 35 units for the three months ended December 31, 2025 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024, primarily due to lower wholesale shipments driven by lower retail activity during the period. The decrease in net sales was driven by a decrease in units, partially offset by a favorable model mix and inflation-driven year-over-year price increases.
Net sales attributable to our Cobalt segment decreased $3.4 million, or 6.0%, to $52.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024. Unit volumes attributable to Cobalt decreased 69 units for the three months ended December 31, 2025 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024, primarily due to lower wholesale shipments driven by lower retail activity during the period and our dealers' desire to hold less inventory. The decrease in net sales was driven primarily by a decrease in units, partially offset by a favorable model mix and inflation-driven year-over-year price increases.
Overall consolidated net sales per unit increased 4.1% to $170,544 per unit for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024. The increase in overall consolidated net sales per unit was driven primarily by a favorable model mix in our Cobalt and Saltwater Fishing segments and inflation-driven year-over-year price increases, partially offset by an unfavorable model mix in our Malibu segment and an unfavorable segment mix overall. Net sales per unit for our Malibu segment decreased 2.4% to $137,686 per unit for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024, driven by an unfavorable model mix, partially offset by inflation-driven year-over-year price increases. Net sales per unit for our Saltwater Fishing segment increased 4.7% to $231,730 per unit for the three months ended December 31, 2025 driven by a favorable model mix and inflation-driven year-over-year price increases. Net sales per unit for our Cobalt segment increased 14.8% to $169,264 per unit for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024, driven by a favorable model mix and inflation-driven year-over-year price increases.
Cost of Sales
Cost of sales for the three months ended December 31, 2025 increased $0.6 million, or 0.4%, to $163.5 million as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024. The increase in cost of sales was primarily driven by higher per unit material and labor costs of $2.4 million, $3.0 million and $7.0 million for the Malibu, Saltwater Fishing, and Cobalt segments, respectively, partially offset by a 5.8% decrease in net sales due to lower unit volumes. The increase in per unit material and labor costs was primarily driven by increased prices due to fixed cost deleverage across all segments, a model mix that corresponds to higher costs per unit for the Saltwater Fishing and Cobalt segments and inflationary pressures.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the three months ended December 31, 2025 decreased $12.3 million, or 32.9%, to $25.1 million compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024. The decrease in gross profit was driven by lower net sales combined with increased cost of sales for the reasons noted above. Gross margin for the three months ended December 31, 2025 decreased 540 basis points from 18.7% to 13.3% driven primarily by fixed cost deleverage across all segments due to lower sales and higher per unit labor and material costs.
Operating Expenses
Selling and marketing expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2025 increased $0.1 million, or 1.4% to $6.1 million compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024. The increase was driven primarily by higher personnel-related expenses. As a percentage of sales, selling and marketing expenses increased 20 basis points to 3.2% for the three months ended December 31, 2025 compared to 3.0% for the three months ended December 31, 2024. General and administrative expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2025 decreased $5.7 million, or 21.5%, to $20.8 million as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024 driven primarily by a decrease in legal fees, incentive pay and stock-based compensation expense. As a percentage of sales, general and administrative expenses decreased 230 basis points to 11.0% for the three months ended December 31, 2025 compared to 13.3% for the three months ended December 31, 2024. Amortization expense remained flat at $1.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025.
Other Expense (Income), Net
Other expense (income), net for the three months ended December 31, 2025 decreased by $0.3 million, or 45.3% to $0.3 million, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024. The decrease in other expense resulted primarily from decreased interest expense during the three months ended December 31, 2025 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024.
(Benefit) Provision for Income Taxes
Our (benefit) provision for income taxes for the three months ended December 31, 2025, decreased $1.5 million, or 826.3%, to $(1.3) million compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024. The decrease primarily resulted from decreased pre-tax earnings and by carryback of research tax credits, offset partially by the impact of U.S. state taxes. For the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, our effective tax rate was 34.1% and 6.9%, respectively. For the three months ended December 31, 2025, due to pre-tax losses, the Company's effective tax rate was increased by carryback of research tax credits and the impact of U.S. state taxes. These were partially offset by shortfall expense generated by certain stock-based compensation, and the foreign rate differential of our Australian subsidiary. For the three months ended December 31, 2024, the Company's effective tax rate was reduced by net operating losses and research tax credits. These reductions were partially offset by shortfall expense generated by certain stock-based compensation, certain federal tax code limitations, and the impact of U.S. state taxes.
Non-controlling Interest
Non-controlling interest represents the ownership interests of the members of the LLC other than us and the amount recorded as non-controlling interest in our unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss is computed by multiplying pre-tax loss for the applicable period, by the percentage ownership in the LLC not directly attributable to us. For the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the weighted-average non-controlling interest attributable to ownership interests in the LLC not directly attributable to us was 1.4% and 1.6%, respectively.
Comparison of the Six Months Ended December 31, 2025 to the Six Months Ended December 31, 2024
Net Sales
Net sales for the six months ended December 31, 2025 increased $11.5 million, or 3.1%, to $383.4 million as compared to the six months ended December 31, 2024. The increased net sales was driven primarily by increased unit volumes in our Malibu segment, a favorable model mix in our Cobalt and Saltwater Fishing segments and inflation-driven year-over-year price increases, partially offset by decreased unit volumes in our Cobalt and Saltwater Fishing segments resulting primarily from lower wholesale shipments, an unfavorable model mix in our Malibu segment and an unfavorable segment mix overall. Unit volume for the six months ended December 31, 2025, decreased 11 units, or 0.5%, to 2,235 units as compared to the six months ended December 31, 2024. Our unit volume decreased primarily due to lower wholesale shipments in our Cobalt and Saltwater Fishing segments, partially offset by increased unit volume in our Malibu segment primarily due to lower wholesale shipments during the same period in fiscal year 2024, as a result of elevated dealer inventory levels.
Net sales attributable to our Malibu segment increased $19.2 million, or 14.7%, to $149.3 million for the six months ended December 31, 2025, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2024. Unit volumes attributable to our Malibu segment increased 142 units for the six months ended December 31, 2025, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2024, primarily due to lower wholesale shipments during the same period in fiscal year 2024, as a result of elevated dealer inventory levels. The increase in net sales was driven by an increase in units and inflation-driven year-over-year price increases, partially offset by an unfavorable model mix.
Net sales attributable to our Saltwater Fishing segment decreased $5.2 million, or 3.9%, to $129.7 million, for the six months ended December 31, 2025, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2024. Unit volumes attributable to our Saltwater Fishing segment decreased 47 units for the six months ended December 31, 2025 compared to the six months ended December 31, 2024, primarily due to lower wholesale shipments driven by lower retail activity during the period. The decrease in net sales was driven by a decrease in units, partially offset by a favorable model mix and inflation-driven year-over-year price increases.
Net sales attributable to our Cobalt segment decreased $2.4 million, or 2.3%, to $104.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2025, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2024. Unit volumes attributable to Cobalt decreased 106 units for the six months ended December 31, 2025 compared to the six months ended December 31, 2024, primarily due to lower wholesale shipments driven by lower retail activity during the period and our dealers' desire to hold less inventory. The decrease in net sales was driven primarily by a decrease in units, partially offset by a favorable model mix and inflation-driven year-over-year price increases.
Overall consolidated net sales per unit increased 3.6% to $171,523 per unit for the six months ended December 31, 2025, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2024. The increase in overall consolidated net sales per unit was driven primarily by a favorable model mix in our Cobalt and Saltwater Fishing segments and inflation-driven year-over-year price increases, partially offset by an unfavorable model mix in our Malibu segment and an unfavorable segment mix overall. Net sales per unit for our Malibu segment decreased 0.8% to $142,036 per unit for the six months ended December 31, 2025, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2024, driven by an unfavorable model mix, partially offset by inflation-driven year-over-year price increases. Net sales per unit for our Saltwater Fishing segment increased 4.0% to $227,482 per unit for the six months ended December 31, 2025 driven by a favorable model mix and inflation-driven year-over-year price increases. Net sales per unit for our Cobalt segment increased 14.6% to $170,049 per unit for the six months ended December 31, 2025, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2024, driven by a favorable model mix and inflation-driven year-over-year price increases.
Cost of Sales
Cost of sales for the six months ended December 31, 2025 increased $24.1 million, or 7.9%, to $330.3 million as compared to the six months ended December 31, 2024. The increase in cost of sales was primarily driven by a 3.1% increase in net sales and higher per unit material and labor costs of $4.8 million, $5.2 million and $13.3 million for the Malibu, Saltwater Fishing, and Cobalt segments, respectively. The increase in per unit material and labor costs was primarily driven by increased prices due to fixed cost deleverage in the Cobalt and Saltwater Fishing segments, a model mix that corresponds to higher costs per unit in our Cobalt and Saltwater Fishing segments and inflationary pressures.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the six months ended December 31, 2025 decreased $12.6 million, or 19.2%, to $53.1 million compared to the six months ended December 31, 2024. The decrease in gross profit was driven primarily by increased cost of sales for the reasons noted above, partially offset by higher net sales. Gross margin for the six months ended December 31, 2025 decreased 380 basis points from 17.6% to 13.8% driven primarily by fixed cost deleverage in the Cobalt and Saltwater Fishing Segments due to lower sales and higher per unit labor and material costs across all segments.
Operating Expenses
Selling and marketing expenses for the six months ended December 31, 2025 increased $1.5 million, or 13.9% to $12.4 million compared to the six months ended December 31, 2024. The increase was driven primarily by higher personnel-related expenses and marketing events. As a percentage of sales, selling and marketing expenses increased 30 basis points to 3.2% for the six months ended December 31, 2025 compared to 2.9% for the six months ended December 31, 2024. General and administrative expenses for the six months ended December 31, 2025 decreased $12.2 million, or 22.6%, to $41.6 million as compared to the six months ended December 31, 2024 driven primarily by a $3.5 million legal settlement for the six months ended December 31, 2024, along with decreased legal fees and decreases in stock-based compensation expense and incentive pay. As a percentage of sales, general and administrative expenses decreased 360 basis points to 10.9% for the six months ended December 31, 2025 compared to 14.5% for the six months ended December 31, 2024. Amortization expense remained flat at $3.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2025.
Other Expense (Income), Net
Other expense (income), net for the six months ended December 31, 2025 decreased by $1.1 million, or 113.3% to other income of $0.1 million. The decrease in other expense (income) was due to other income from an adjustment in our tax receivable agreement liability mainly due to decreased blended federal and state tax rates used as a result of OB3 tax reform changes, and in turn, a decrease in the future benefit we expect to pay under our tax receivable agreement with pre-IPO owners.
(Benefit) Provision for Income Taxes
Our (benefit) provision for income taxes for the six months ended December 31, 2025, decreased $0.3 million, or 47.4%, to $(1.0) million compared to the six months ended December 31, 2024. The decrease primarily resulted from carryback of research tax credits. This was partially offset by the impact of the change in tax law enacted, in accordance with OB3, through the remeasurement of our deferred tax assets. For the six months ended December 31, 2025, due to pre-tax losses, the Company's effective tax rate was increased by carryback of research tax credits and the impact of U.S. state taxes. These were partially offset by shortfall expense generated by certain stock-based compensation, and the foreign rate differential of our Australian subsidiary. For the six months ended December 31, 2024, due to year-to date pre-tax losses, the Company's effective tax rate was reduced by shortfall expense generated by certain stock-based compensation and the foreign rate differential of our Australian subsidiary. This was partially offset by the impact of U.S. state taxes.
Non-controlling Interest
Non-controlling interest represents the ownership interests of the members of the LLC other than us and the amount recorded as non-controlling interest in our unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss is computed by multiplying pre-tax loss for the applicable period, by the percentage ownership in the LLC not directly attributable to us. For the six months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the weighted-average non-controlling interest attributable to ownership interests in the LLC not directly attributable to us was 1.4% and 1.6%, respectively.
GAAP Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are non-GAAP financial measures that are used by management as well as by investors, commercial bankers, industry analysts and other users of our financial statements.
We define Adjusted EBITDA as net (loss) income before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, and non-cash, non-operating expenses or other expenses that we do not believe are indicative of our ongoing expenses, including certain professional fees, litigation settlements, non-cash compensation expense and adjustments to our tax receivable agreement liability. We define Adjusted EBITDA margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are not measures of net (loss) income as determined by GAAP. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin allow investors to evaluate the Company’s operating performance and compare our results of operations from period to period on a consistent basis by excluding items that management does not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA to assist in highlighting trends in our operating results without regard to our financing methods, capital structure and non-recurring or non-operating expenses.
We exclude the items listed above from net (loss) income in arriving at Adjusted EBITDA because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within our industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures, the methods by which assets were acquired and other factors. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net (loss) income as determined in accordance with GAAP or as an indicator of our liquidity. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing a company’s financial performance, such as a company’s cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historical costs of depreciable assets. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin should not be construed as an inference that our results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. Our computations of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
The following table sets forth a reconciliation of net (loss) income as determined in accordance with GAAP to Adjusted EBITDA and presentation of net (loss) income margin and Adjusted EBITDA margin for the periods indicated (dollars in thousands):

(5) We calculate net (loss) income margin as net (loss) income divided by net sales, and we define adjusted EBITDA margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales.

Adjusted Net (Loss) Income Per Share
Adjusted net (loss) income per share is a non-GAAP financial measure that is used and disclosed by management in order to give management and its investors and analysts a more accurate picture of our underlying earnings performance. Adjusted net (loss) income per share, excludes items that management does not believe are indicative of our core operating performance.
We define adjusted net (loss) income per share as net (loss) income attributable to Malibu Boats, Inc. per share, excluding income tax (benefit) expense, before non-cash, non-operating expenses, or other expenses that we do not believe are indicative of our ongoing expenses, including litigation settlements, acquisition related amortization, certain professional fees and non-cash compensation expense, and reflecting an adjustment for income tax expense on adjusted (loss) income before income taxes at our estimated effective income tax rate.
We exclude the items listed above from net (loss) income per share in arriving at adjusted net (loss) income per share because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within our industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, the methods by which assets were acquired and other factors. Adjusted net (loss) income per share has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net (loss) income per share as determined in accordance with GAAP or as an indicator of our liquidity. Certain items excluded are significant components in understanding and assessing a company’s financial performance. Our presentation of adjusted net (loss) income per share should not be construed as an inference that our results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. Our computation of this measure may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview and Primary Sources of Cash
Our primary uses of cash have been for funding working capital and capital investments, repayments under our debt arrangements, acquisitions, cash distributions to members of the LLC, cash payments under our tax receivable agreement and stock repurchases under our stock repurchase program. For both the short term and the long term, our sources of cash to meet these needs have primarily been operating cash flows, borrowings under our revolving credit facility and short and long-term debt financings from banks and financial institutions. We believe that our cash on hand, cash generated by operating activities and funds available under our revolving credit facility will be sufficient to finance our operating activities for at least the next twelve months and beyond.
Material Cash Requirements
Our typical uses of cash are for capital expenditures, debt service obligations, payments under our tax receivables agreement, our lease obligations and return of capital to our stockholders, which has typically been accomplished through our stock repurchase programs.
Capital Expenditures.
During fiscal year 2025, we incurred approximately $27.9 million in capital expenditures primarily for investments in new models, capacity enhancements and vertical integration initiatives. For the six months ended December 31, 2025, we have incurred approximately $8.7 million in capital expenditures primarily for investments in new models, capacity enhancements and vertical integration initiatives.
Principal and Interest Payments.
Our Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) provides us with a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $350.0 million. As of December 31, 2025, we had $20.0 million outstanding under our revolving credit facility and $1.8 million in outstanding letters of credit, with $328.2 million available for borrowing. The revolving credit facility matures on July 8, 2027. Assuming no additional repayments or borrowings on our revolving credit facility after December 31, 2025, our expected cash interest payments, including accrued interest outstanding at December 31, 2025, would be approximately $1.2 million within the next 12 months based on the weighted average interest rate at December 31, 2025 of 5.25%. See below under “Revolving Credit Facility” for additional information regarding our revolving credit facility, including the interest rate applicable to any borrowing under such facility.
Tax Receivable Agreement.
We entered into a tax receivable agreement with our pre-IPO owners at the time of our initial public offering. Under the tax receivables agreement, we pay the pre-IPO owners (or any permitted assignees) 85% of the amount of cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state and local income tax or franchise tax that we actually realize, or in some circumstances are deemed to realize, as a result of an expected increase in our share of tax basis in LLC’s tangible and intangible assets, including increases attributable to payments made under the tax receivable agreement. These obligations will not be paid if we do not realize cash tax savings. We estimate that approximately $0.3 million will be due under the tax receivable agreement within the next 12 months. In accordance with the tax receivable agreement, the next annual payment is anticipated approximately 75 days after filing the federal return due by April 15, 2026.
Operating Lease Obligations.
Lease commitments consist principally of leases for our manufacturing facilities. Our expected operating lease payments due within the next 12 months are $2.7 million and our total committed lease payments are $6.6 million as of December 31, 2025. Additional information regarding our operating leases is available in Note 11 of our unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.
Purchase Obligations.
In the ordinary course of business, we enter into purchase orders from a variety of suppliers, primarily for raw materials, in order to manage our various operating needs. The orders are expected to be purchased throughout fiscal year 2026. We or the vendor can generally terminate the purchase orders at any time. These purchase orders do not contain any termination payments or other penalties if cancelled. As of December 31, 2025, we had purchase orders in the amount of $59.2 million due within the next 12 months.
Return of Capital/Stock Repurchase Program.
In June 2025, our Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program to allow for the repurchase of up to $50.0 million of our Class A Common Stock and the LLC’s LLC Units (as amended, the "2025 Repurchase Program") for the period from July 1, 2025 to June 30, 2026. On December 18, 2025, our Board of Directors authorized an increase to the Company's existing 2025 Repurchase Program, raising the authorized amount from $50.0 million to $70.0 million. We may purchase shares under the 2025 Repurchase Program from time to time in privately negotiated transactions or open market transactions, including under plans complying with Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended at the discretion of management, subject to strategic considerations, market conditions, and other factors. During the six months ended December 31, 2025, we repurchased 751,202 shares of Class A Common Stock for $20.8 million in cash including related fees and expenses under the 2025 Repurchase Program. As of December 31, 2025, $49.2 million was available to repurchase shares of Class A Common Stock and LLC Units under the 2025 Repurchase Program.
Our future capital requirements beyond the next 12 months will depend on many factors, including the general economic environment in which we operate and our ability to generate cash flow from operations, which are more uncertain as a result of inflation, changing interest rates and volatile fuel prices. Our liquidity needs during this uncertain time will depend on multiple factors, including our ability to continue operations and production of boats, the performance of our dealers and suppliers, potential strategic acquisitions, the impact of the general economy on our dealers, suppliers and retail customers, the availability of sufficient amounts of financing, and our operating performance.
The following table summarizes the cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities (dollars in thousands):
| Total cash provided by (used in): | Six Months Ended December 31, 2025 | 2024 |
|---|---|---|
| Operating activities | $19,182 | $20,005 |
| Investing activities | (8,630) | (13,921) |
| Financing activities | (19,663) | 2,282 |
| Impact of currency exchange rates on cash balances | 318 | (193) |
| (Decrease) increase in cash | $(8,793) | $8,173 |
Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities was $19.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2025, compared to $20.0 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024, a decrease of $0.8 million. The decrease in cash from operating activities resulted from a net decrease in operating assets and liabilities of $2.3 million, partially offset by an increase of $1.5 million in net income (after consideration of non-cash items included in net (loss) income, primarily related to depreciation, amortization, deferred tax assets and non-cash compensation).
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $8.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2025, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $13.9 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024, a decrease in net cash used of $5.3 million. The decrease in net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended December 31, 2025 was primarily related to decreased capital expenditures compared to the six months ended December 31, 2024.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities was $19.7 million for the six months ended December 31, 2025 compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $2.3 million for the six months ended December 31, 2024, a decrease of $21.9 million. During the six months ended December 31, 2025, we borrowed $2.0 million, net of repayments, under our revolving credit facility and repurchased $20.8 million of our Class A Common Stock under our current stock repurchase program. During the six months ended December 31, 2024, we borrowed $23.0 million, net of repayments, under our revolving credit facility and repurchased $20.2 million of our Class A Common Stock under our prior stock repurchase program.
Revolving Credit Facility
On July 8, 2022, Boats LLC entered into a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) which provides Boats LLC with a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $350.0 million. As of December 31, 2025, Boats LLC had $20.0 million outstanding under its revolving credit facility and $1.8 million in outstanding letters of credit, with $328.2 million available for borrowing. The revolving credit facility matures on July 8, 2027. Boats LLC has the option to request that lenders increase the amount available under the revolving credit facility by, or obtain term loans of, up to $200.0 million, subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement and only if existing or new lenders choose to provide additional term or revolving commitments.
Malibu Boats, LLC is the borrower under the Credit Agreement and its obligations are guaranteed by the LLC and, subject to certain exceptions, the present and future domestic subsidiaries of Malibu Boats, LLC, and all such obligations are secured by substantially all of the assets of the LLC, Malibu Boats, LLC and such subsidiary guarantors. Malibu Boats, Inc. is not a party to the Credit Agreement.
All borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate equal to either, at our option, (i) the highest of the prime rate, the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5%, or one-month Term SOFR plus 1% (the “Base Rate”) or (ii) SOFR, in each case plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.25% to 2.00% with respect to SOFR borrowings and 0.25% to 1.00% with respect to Base Rate borrowings. The applicable margin will be based upon the consolidated leverage ratio of the LLC and its subsidiaries. We are required to pay a commitment fee for the unused portion of the revolving credit facility, which will range from 0.15% to 0.30% per annum, depending on the LLC’s and its subsidiaries’ consolidated leverage ratio.
The Credit Agreement contains certain customary representations and warranties, and notice requirements for the occurrence of specific events such as the occurrence of any event of default or pending or threatened litigation. The Credit Agreement also requires compliance with certain customary financial covenants consisting of a minimum ratio of EBITDA to interest expense and a maximum ratio of total debt to EBITDA. The Credit Agreement contains restrictive covenants regarding indebtedness, liens, fundamental changes, investments, share repurchases, dividends and distributions, disposition of assets, transactions with affiliates, negative pledges, hedging transactions, certain prepayments of indebtedness, accounting changes and governmental regulation.
The Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default. If an event of default has occurred and continues beyond any applicable cure period, the administrative agent may (i) accelerate all outstanding obligations under the Credit Agreement or (ii) terminate the commitments, amongst other remedies. Additionally, the lenders are not obligated to fund any new borrowing under the Credit Agreement while an event of default is continuing.
Repurchase Commitments
Our dealers have arrangements with certain finance companies to provide secured floor plan financing for the purchase of our boats. These arrangements indirectly provide liquidity to us by financing dealer purchases of our products, thereby minimizing the use of our working capital in the form of accounts receivable. A majority of our sales are financed under similar arrangements, pursuant to which we receive payment within a few days of shipment of the product. In most cases, we have agreed to repurchase products repossessed by the finance companies if a dealer defaults on its debt obligations to a finance company and the boat is returned to us, subject to certain limitations. Our financial exposure under these agreements is limited to the difference between the amounts unpaid by the dealer with respect to the repossessed product plus costs of repossession and the amount received on the resale of the repossessed product. During the six months ended December 31, 2025, we did not repurchase any boats under our repurchase agreements. For fiscal year 2025, we repurchased 22 units under our repurchase agreements, including 19 boats that were related to the bankruptcy with Tommy's Boats totaling $2.5 million. An adverse change in retail sales could require us to repurchase repossessed units upon an event of default by any of our dealers, subject to the annual limitation. Refer to Note 16 to the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report for further information on repurchase commitments.
