CLEARWATER, Florida, July 25, 2024 — MarineMax, Inc. (NYSE: HZO) ("MarineMax" or the "Company"), the world’s largest recreational boat, yacht and superyacht services company, today announced results for its fiscal 2024 third quarter ended June 30, 2024.

Fiscal 2024 Third Quarter Summary

CEO & President Commentary

“Despite persistent retail headwinds in the third quarter, our team executed well, delivering 5% top-line growth,” stated Chief Executive Officer and President Brett McGill. “Our solid third-quarter performance in this challenging operating environment underscores the importance of our value-creation strategy, which focuses on expanding our high-margin, less cyclical revenue streams. This strategic expansion, encompassing marinas, superyacht services, and other offerings, has strengthened our gross margin profile—now consistently exceeding 30%—and enhanced our cash flow generation and balance sheet resilience. These improvements come at a crucial time, as macroeconomic softness weighs on retail boat margins industry-wide. By strategically realigning our business, we’ve better positioned ourselves to weather market fluctuations and capitalize on emerging opportunities across our diverse portfolio.

“The recent formation of our new SuperYacht Division (SYD) exemplifies our strategy to generate increasing operating and commercial synergies across our portfolio,” McGill said. “The SYD integrates the operations of Fraser Yachts, Northrop & Johnson, Fairport Yacht Management, SuperYacht Management and Atalanta Golden Yachts (AGY), streamlining the back-office functions of these businesses into a unified entity. Our expansion into superyacht services began many years ago as our existing Azimut, Galeon, and Ocean Alexander customers, and others from our retail dealership operations, migrated to increasingly larger yachts. The complexity of these vessels demanded specialized services, which our SYD companies are exceptionally well-positioned to provide.

“As part of our long-term operational improvement plan, we initiated strategic cost-cutting actions to better align our expense structure with the current operating environment and improve operating

leverage,” McGill said. “During the fourth quarter and into fiscal 2025, we expect to see increasing cost savings from these initiatives, which will further improve our cash flows.”

Fiscal 2024 Third Quarter Results

Revenue in the fiscal 2024 third quarter increased 5% to $757.7 million from $721.8 million in the comparable period last year. The top-line growth was primarily driven by an increase in boat sales. On a comparable same-store basis, revenue increased 4%, reflecting higher new and used boat revenue as well as other areas of the Company’s Retail Operations segment, which includes marina, parts, finance and insurance, Super Yachts Group and Charter.

Gross profit decreased 1.0% to $242.1 million from $243.8 million in the prior-year period. Gross profit margin of 32.0% decreased 180 basis points from 33.8% in the comparable period last year, reflecting a higher level of promotional activity to drive boat sales in the face of challenging retail operating conditions.

Selling, general, and administrative (SG&A) expenses totaled $181.1 million, or 23.9% of revenue, in the third quarter, compared with $169.2 million, or 23.4% of revenue, for the comparable period last year. Excluding transaction and other costs, intangible amortization, changes in contingent consideration, weather events, and restructuring expense in the 2024 and 2023 period, Adjusted SG&A2 increased $10.3 million, or 6.2%, from the same period in fiscal 2023. This increase partly reflected restructuring expenses and new locations such as AGY, C&C Boat Works and Williams Jet Tenders, which were added since the beginning of the fiscal 2023 third quarter.

Interest expense was $18.2 million, or 2.4% of revenue in the third quarter, compared with $14.8 million, or 2.1% of revenue in the prior-year period, reflecting higher interest rates and increased inventory compared with the third quarter of fiscal 2023.

Net income in the third quarter was $31.6 million, or $1.37 per diluted share, compared with net income of $44.4 million, or $1.98 per diluted share, in the same period last year. Adjusted net income1 in the third quarter was $34.8 million, or $1.51 per diluted share, compared with $46.5 million, or $2.07 per diluted share, in the prior-year period. Adjusted EBITDA1 for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, was $70.4 million, compared with $83.5 million for the comparable period last year.

---

Fiscal 2024 Guidance

Based on results to date, current business conditions, retail trends and other factors, the Company reaffirms its fiscal year 2024 Adjusted net income1,3, guidance range of $2.20 to $3.20 per diluted share. The Company also reaffirms its fiscal year 2024 Adjusted EBITDA1,3 guidance range of $155 million to $190 million. These expectations do not consider or give effect for, among other things, material acquisitions that may be completed by the Company during fiscal 2024 or other unforeseen events, including changes in global economic conditions.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release, along with the above Supplemental Financial Information table, contains “Adjusted net income”, “Adjusted diluted EPS”, “Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization” (“Adjusted EBITDA”) and “Adjusted SG&A”, which are non-GAAP financial measures as defined under applicable securities legislation. In determining these measures, the Company excludes certain items which are otherwise included in determining the comparable GAAP financial measures. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures are key performance indicators that improve the period-to-period comparability of the Company’s results and provide 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 measures and the above reconciliation and should consider these non-GAAP financial measures 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.

In addition, we have not reconciled our fiscal year 2024 Adjusted earnings and Adjusted EBITDA guidance to net income (the corresponding GAAP measure for each), which is not accessible on a forward-looking basis due to the high variability and difficulty in making accurate forecasts and projections, particularly with respect to acquisition contingent consideration, acquisition costs, and other costs. Acquisition contingent consideration and transaction costs, which are likely to be significant to the calculation of net income, are affected by the integration and post-acquisition performance of our acquirees, which is difficult to predict and subject to change. Accordingly, reconciliations of forward-looking Adjusted earnings and Adjusted EBITDA are not available without unreasonable effort.
