1. GENERAL

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (all of which consisted of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024.

The Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2023 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements.

For further information, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes thereto included in the annual report of Marine Products Corporation (“Marine Products,” the “Company” or “MPC”) on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

A group that includes Gary W. Rollins, Pamela R. Rollins, Amy Rollins Kreisler and Timothy C. Rollins, each of whom is a director of the Company, and certain companies under their control, controls in excess of fifty percent of the Company’s voting power.

2. RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

The FASB issued the following Accounting Standards Updates (ASUs):

Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted:

ASU No. 2023-07 — Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The amendments in this ASU require an entity to disclose the title and position of the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) and the significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the CODM and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss. These amendments are effective for annual disclosures beginning in 2024 and interim disclosures beginning in the first quarter of 2025, with early adoption permitted. These amendments are effective retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company has one reportable segment and is currently evaluating the impact of adopting these provisions on its consolidated financial statements.

ASU No. 2023-09 — Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The amendments in this ASU require an entity to include consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid, disaggregated by jurisdiction. These amendments are effective for annual disclosures beginning in 2025, with early adoption permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting these provisions on its consolidated financial statements.

Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Final Rules: Climate related Disclosure: The SEC adopted final rules designed to enhance public company disclosures related to the risks and impacts of climate-related matters. The new rules require disclosures relating to climate-related risks and risk management as well as the board and management’s governance of such risks. In addition, the rules include requirements to disclose the financial effects of severe weather events and other natural conditions in the audited financial statements and disclose information about greenhouse gas emissions, which will be subject to a phased-in assurance requirement. On April 4, 2024, the SEC stayed its climate disclosure rules to “facilitate the orderly judicial resolution” of pending legal challenges. If litigation is resolved in favor of the SEC, a majority of the final rules will be effective for MPC beginning in the year 2026.

3. NET SALES

Accounting Policy:

MPC’s contract revenues are generated principally from selling: (1) fiberglass motorized boats and accessories and (2) parts to independent dealers. Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with our customer are satisfied. Satisfaction of contract terms occurs with the transfer of title of our boats and accessories and parts to our dealers. Net sales are measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring the goods to the dealer. The amount of consideration we expect to receive consists of the sales price adjusted for dealer incentives. The expected costs associated with our base warranties continue to be recognized as expense when the products are sold as they are deemed to be assurance-type warranties (See Note titled Warranty Costs). Incidental promotional items that are immaterial in the context of the contract are recognized as expense. Fees charged to customers for shipping and handling are included in Net sales in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and the related costs incurred by the Company are included in Cost of goods sold.

Nature of goods:

MPC’s performance obligations within its contracts consist of: (1) boats and accessories and (2) parts. The Company transfers control and recognizes revenue on the satisfaction of its performance obligations (point in time) as follows:

●

Boats and accessories (domestic sales) – upon delivery and acceptance by the dealer

●

Boats and accessories (international sales) – upon delivery to shipping port

●

Parts – upon shipment/delivery to carrier

Payment terms:

For most domestic customers, MPC manufactures and delivers boats and accessories and parts ahead of payment - i.e., MPC has fulfilled its performance obligations prior to submitting an invoice to the dealer. MPC invoices the customer when the products are delivered and typically receives the payment within seven to ten business days after invoicing. For some domestic customers and all international customers, MPC requires payment prior to transferring control of the goods. These amounts are classified as deferred revenue and recognized when control has transferred, which generally occurs within three months of receiving the payment.

When the Company enters into contracts with its customers, it generally expects there to be no significant timing difference between the date the goods have been delivered to the customer (satisfaction of the performance obligation) and the date cash consideration is received. Accordingly, there is no financing component to the Company’s arrangements with its customers.

Significant judgments:

Determining the transaction price

The transaction price for MPC’s boats and accessories is the invoice price adjusted for dealer incentives. Key inputs and assumptions in determining variable consideration related to dealer incentives include:

●

Inputs: Current model year boat sales, total potential program incentive percentage, prior model year results of dealer incentive activity (i.e., incentive earned as a percentage of total incentive potential).

Table of Contents

MARINE PRODUCTS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

●

Assumption: Current model year incentive activity will closely reflect prior model year actual results, adjusted as necessary for dealer purchasing trends or economic factors.

Other:

Our contracts with dealers do not provide them with a right of return. Accordingly, we do not have any obligations recorded for returns or refunds.

Disaggregation of revenues:

The following table disaggregates our sales by major source:


	Three months ended				Nine months ended

Net sales	$	49,850	$	77,786	$	188,737	$	312,858

Contract balances:

4. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic and diluted earnings per share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the respective periods. In addition, the Company has periodically issued share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends and are therefore considered participating securities. Restricted shares of common stock (participating securities) outstanding and a reconciliation of weighted average shares outstanding is as follows:


	Three months ended				Nine months ended
	September 30,				September 30,

Shares used in calculating basic and diluted earnings per share		33,837		33,628		33,804		33,602

5. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company has issued various forms of stock incentives, including, incentive and non-qualified stock options, time-lapse restricted shares and performance stock unit awards under its Stock Incentive Plans to officers, selected employees and non-employee directors. As of September 30, 2024, there were 2,965,216 shares available for grant under the Company’s 2024 Stock Incentive Plan.

6. WARRANTY COSTS

For its Chaparral and Robalo products, Marine Products provides a lifetime limited structural hull warranty and a transferable one-year limited warranty to the original owner. Chaparral also includes a five-year limited structural deck warranty. Warranties for additional items are provided for periods of one to five years and are not transferable. Additionally, as it relates to the second subsequent owner, a five-year transferable hull warranty and the remainder of the original one-year limited warranty on certain components are available. The five-year transferable hull warranty terminates five years after the date of the original retail purchase. Claim costs related to components are generally absorbed by the original component manufacturer. The manufacturers of the engines, generators, and navigation electronics included on our boats provide and administer their own warranties for various lengths of time.

An analysis of the warranty accruals for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 is as follows:


(in thousands)	2024		2023
Balance at January 1	$	7,078	$	5,699
Less: Payments made during the period		(3,374)		(3,316)

Changes to warranty provision for prior periods		(11)		156

7. BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company has one reportable segment, its powerboat manufacturing business; therefore, the majority of segment-related disclosures are not relevant to the Company. In addition, the Company’s results of operations and its financial condition are not significantly reliant upon any single customer or product model.

9. INCOME TAXES

The Company determines its periodic income tax provision based upon the current period income and the annual estimated tax rate for the Company adjusted for discrete items including tax credits and changes to prior year estimates. The estimated tax rate is revised, if necessary, at the end of each successive interim period to the Company's current annual estimated tax rate.

For the three months ended September 30, 2024, the effective rate reflects a provision of 19.4 percent compared to a provision of 21.6 percent for the comparable period in the prior year. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the effective rate reflects a provision of 19.8 percent compared to a provision of 20.2 percent for the comparable period in the prior year. The decrease in the effective tax rate is primarily due to the impact of favorable permanent differences.

10. RETIREMENT PLANS

The multiemployer Retirement Income Plan (“Plan”), a trusteed defined benefit pension plan, sponsored by RPC, Inc. (“RPC”), that the Company participated in was fully terminated in 2023. Amounts related to prior year are disclosed below:

The Company permits selected highly compensated employees to defer a portion of their compensation into a non-qualified Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”). The Company maintains certain securities primarily in mutual funds and company-owned life insurance (“COLI”) policies as a funding source to satisfy the obligation of the SERP that have been classified as trading and are stated at fair value totaling $18.1 million as of September 30, 2024 and $15.4 million as of December 31, 2023. Trading gains related to the SERP assets totaled $753 thousand during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to trading losses of $238 thousand during the three months ended September 30, 2023. Trading gains related to the

(Unaudited)

SERP assets totaled $2.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to trading gains of $524 thousand during the three months ended September 30, 2023. The SERP assets are reported in Retirement plan assets in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets and changes to the fair value of the assets are reported in Selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The SERP liabilities include participant deferrals net of distributions and are stated at fair value of $21.2 million as of September 30, 2024 and $18.0 million as of December 31, 2023. The SERP liabilities are reported in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets in Retirement plan liabilities and any change in the fair value is recorded as compensation cost within Selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. Changes in the fair value of the SERP liabilities was the result of an increase of $850 thousand due to unrealized gains on participant balances during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to a decrease of $166 thousand due to unrealized losses on participant balances during the three months ended September 30, 2023. Changes in the fair value of the SERP liabilities was the result of an increase of $3.0 million due to unrealized gains on participant balances during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to an increase of $524 thousand due to unrealized gains on participant balances during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Effective October 22, 2024, the termination of the SERP was approved by the Board of Directors. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) rules require a 12 month waiting period before liquidating the SERP after termination has been approved. The participant balances are expected to be distributed in the fourth quarter of 2025.

11. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The various inputs used to measure assets at fair value establish a hierarchy that distinguishes between assumptions based on market data (observable inputs) and the Company’s assumptions (unobservable inputs). The hierarchy consists of three broad levels as follows:

Level 1 – Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs developed using the Company’s estimates and assumptions, which reflect those that market participants would use.

Trading securities are comprised of SERP assets, as described in the note titled Retirement Plans, and are recorded primarily at their net cash surrender values calculated using their net asset values, which approximate fair value, as provided by the issuing insurance company or investment company. Significant observable inputs, in addition to quoted market prices, are used to value the trading securities. The Company’s policy is to recognize transfers between levels at the beginning of quarterly reporting periods.

The carrying amount of other financial instruments reported in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets for current assets and current liabilities approximate their fair values because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. The Company currently does not use the fair value option to measure any of its existing financial instruments and has not determined whether or not it will elect this option for financial instruments it may acquire in the future.

MARINE PRODUCTS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Effective July 1, 2023, revolving borrowings under the facility accrue interest at a rate equal to Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) plus the applicable percentage, as defined. During the second quarter of 2023, the Company was notified by Truist Bank that SOFR replaced LIBOR for all borrowings under the facility. The new applicable percentage is between 150 and 250 basis points for all loans based on MPC’s net leverage ratio plus a SOFR adjustment of 11.45 basis points. In addition, the Company pays facility fees under the agreement ranging from 25 to 45 basis points, based on MPC’s net leverage ratio, on the unused revolving commitment.

The credit agreement contains certain financial covenants including: (i) a maximum consolidated leverage ratio of 2.50:1.00 and (ii) a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.25:1.00 both determined as of the end of each fiscal quarter. Additionally, the agreement contains customary covenants including affirmative and negative covenants and events of default (each with customary exceptions, thresholds and exclusions). As of September 30, 2024, the Company was in compliance with all covenants.

The Company has incurred total loan origination fees and other debt related costs associated with this revolving credit facility in the aggregate of $195 thousand. These costs are being amortized to interest expense over the remaining term of the loan, and the remaining net balance is classified as part of Other assets in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. MPC had no outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Interest expense incurred, which includes facility fees on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility and the amortization of loan costs, on the credit facility was $23 thousand for both the three months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023; interest expense incurred was $67 thousand for both the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023. Interest expense paid on the credit facility was $25 thousand for both the three months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023. Interest expense paid on the credit facility was $25 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and $63 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

15. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Repurchase Obligations:

The Company is a party to various agreements with third party lenders that provide floor plan financing to qualifying dealers whereby the Company guarantees varying amounts of debt on boats in dealer inventory. The Company’s obligation under these guarantees becomes effective in the case of a default under the financing arrangement between the dealer and the third-party lender. The agreements provide for the return of repossessed boats to the Company in new and unused condition subject to normal wear and tear as defined, in exchange for the Company’s assumption of specified percentages of the debt obligation on those boats, up to certain contractually determined dollar limits by the lenders. The Company had no material financial impact associated with repurchases under these contractual agreements during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023.

Management continues to monitor the risk of defaults and resulting repurchase obligations based in part on information provided by third-party floor plan lenders and will adjust the guarantee liability at the end of each reporting period based on information reasonably available at that time.

(Unaudited)

The Company currently has an agreement with one of the floor plan lenders whereby the contractual repurchase limit is based on the highest of the following criteria: (i) a specified percentage of the amount of the average net receivables financed by the floor plan lender for our dealers, (ii) the total average net receivables financed by the floor plan lender for our two highest dealers during the prior three month period, or (iii) $8.0 million, less repurchases during the prior 12 month period. As defined by the agreement, the repurchase limit for this lender was $20.5 million as of September 30, 2024. The Company has contractual repurchase agreements with additional lenders with an aggregate maximum repurchase obligation of $6.1 million with various expiration and cancellation terms of less than one year, for an aggregate repurchase obligation with all floor plan financing institutions of $26.6 million as of September 30, 2024.

Subsequent to September 30, 2024, the Company has entered into a three-year floor plan financing agreement with a single third-party floor plan lender which will be phased in to replace a majority of the existing agreements with the current third-party lenders. The agreement is substantially similar to the current arrangements with the existing third-party floor plan lenders and provides for certain additional incentives to the Company and qualifying dealers over the term of the agreement.

Short-term Cash Incentive Compensation:

In addition to recording Short-term Cash Incentive (STCI) compensation expense for executive officers, STCI expense has been recorded for four non-executive employees based on a percentage of Pre-Tax Profit (PTP incentive), defined as pretax income before goodwill adjustments and certain allocated corporate expenses. Through the third quarter of 2023, this PTP incentive was 16% in the aggregate per year and was subject to either a contractual arrangement or a discretionary determination. The PTP incentive under a contractual agreement with one employee, in the amount of seven percent per year, was discontinued at the end of the third quarter of 2023. Effective October 1, 2023, the PTP incentive, subject to a discretionary determination, is nine percent in the aggregate per year for three employees.

Total STCI expense for the reported periods was as follows:


	Three months ended September 30,				Nine months ended September 30,
(in thousands)	2024		2023		2024		2023
STCI expense	$	436	$	2,365	$	1,949	$	9,650

These amounts are included in Selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.

16. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On October 15, 2024, the Company notified its current third-party floor plan financing lenders of phased in changes to their existing arrangements, according to the terms of each of their existing agreements. See section titled Repurchase Obligations included in note titled Commitments and Contingencies, for additional information.

On October 22, 2024, the Board of Directors approved the following actions:

●

Termination of the SERP; see note titled Retirement Plans for additional information; and

●

Declaration of a regular quarterly dividend of $0.14 per share payable December 10, 2024, to common shareholders of record at the close of business on November 11, 2024.

Also, effective October 22, 2024, the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors approved the formation of a captive insurance company wholly owned by Chaparral, to efficiently manage its insurance costs.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

Marine Products Corporation, through our wholly owned subsidiaries Chaparral and Robalo, is a leading manufacturer of recreational fiberglass powerboats. Our sales and profits are generated by selling the products that we manufacture to a network of independent dealers who in turn sell the products to retail customers. These dealers are located throughout the continental United States and in several international markets. Many of these dealers finance their inventory through third-party floorplan lenders, who pay Marine Products generally within seven to ten days after delivery of the products to the dealers.

The discussion on business and financial strategies of the Company set forth under the heading “Business Strategies” in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 is incorporated herein by reference. There have been no significant changes in the strategies since year-end.

In executing these strategies and attempting to optimize our financial returns, management closely monitors dealer orders and inventories, the production mix of various models, and indications of demand such as consumer confidence, inflation concerns, interest rates, dealer orders placed at our annual dealer conferences, and retail attendance and orders at annual winter boat show exhibitions. We also consider trends related to certain key financial and other data, including our historical and forecasted financial results, market share, unit sales of our products, average selling price per boat, and gross profit margins, among others, as indicators of the success of our strategies. Our financial results are affected by consumer confidence — because pleasure boating is a discretionary expenditure, interest rates — because many retail customers finance the purchase of their boats, and other socioeconomic and environmental factors such as availability of leisure time, consumer preferences, demographics and the weather.

Consolidated net sales of $49.9 million decreased during the third quarter of 2024 in comparison to the third quarter of 2023 due primarily to a 40% decrease in unit sales to dealers partially offset by a positive price/mix of 4%, driven by higher gross selling prices. Gross profit decreased to $9.2 million during the third quarter of 2024, from $19.2 million during the third quarter of 2023. Operating income decreased to $3.6 million during the third quarter of 2024, from $12.4 million during the same period of the prior year. Net income decreased to $3.4 million during the third quarter of 2024, from $10.4 million in the same period of the prior year. Diluted earnings per share was $0.10 for the third quarter of 2024, down from $0.30 for the third quarter of 2023.

OUTLOOK

The discussion of the outlook for 2024 is incorporated herein by reference from the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 at “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Outlook.”.

We believe that the strong retail demand for new recreational boats, which began in 2020 with the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, has now normalized. In addition, consumers are returning to pre-pandemic routine lifestyles and rising interest rates are contributing to higher costs of boat ownership. Since some buyers of recreational boats finance their purchases, higher interest rates may discourage them from the purchase of a boat. Furthermore, the softening consumer demand has resulted in generally elevated inventory levels in the dealer channel across brands and categories. This higher level of Chaparral inventory results in higher floorplan financing costs for boat dealers compared to recent years. In light of reduced demand compared to 2023 and higher interest rates, we have reinstituted certain retail incentives and other allowances to attract more consumers and help reduce channel inventory. We have adjusted production levels to align with expected demand.

During the past three model years, Marine Products has produced a smaller number of boat models than in previous years to increase production efficiency. In addition, the average size of the models the Company is producing has increased in response to evolving retail demand, and this trend is expected to continue. The Company intends to continue its focus on increasing sales of larger boats given this trend, higher associated price points and higher margins.

Our financial results during the remainder of 2024 will depend on a number of factors, including economic trends, demand for discretionary products, the impact of interest rates on consumer financing options and dealer inventory carrying costs, the

effectiveness of the Company’s incentive programs, the success of new model launches, and the Company’s ability to manage manufacturing costs in light of lower production levels compared to early 2023.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Key operating and financial statistics for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 are as follows:


	Three months ended September 30,						Nine months ended September 30,

THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2024 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023

Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2024 decreased $27.9 million or 35.9% compared to the same period in 2023. The change in net sales during the quarter compared to the prior year was primarily due to a 40% decrease in unit sales volume partially offset by a positive price/mix of 4%, driven by higher gross selling prices. Sales continued to be impacted by soft consumer demand, as dealers tightly manage their inventories to minimize floor plan carrying costs until demand improves. The Company believes its year-over-year comparisons will likely remain soft in the near term.

In the third quarter of 2024, net sales outside of the United States accounted for 4.5% of net sales compared to 5.9% of net sales in the same period of the prior year.

Cost of goods sold for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $40.7 million compared to $58.5 million for the comparable period in 2023, a decrease of $17.9 million or 30.5%. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales was 81.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to 75.3% for the same period in the prior year due to lower sales volumes and associated manufacturing cost inefficiencies, coupled with the impact of reinstituting retail incentive programs. Production schedules and labor costs have been adjusted to more closely align with current demand. The Company expects year-over-year changes in gross margin to be less pronounced in the near-term as comparisons to prior year periods become less difficult.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2024 were $5.6 million compared to $8.8 million for the comparable period in 2023, a decrease of $3.1 million or 35.8%. This decrease was primarily due to costs that vary with sales and profitability, such as incentive compensation, sales commissions and warranty expense in the current quarter in comparison to the same period of the prior year. Selling, general and administrative expenses were 11.3% of net sales in the third quarter of 2024, consistent with the comparable period in 2023.

Gain on disposition of assets, net for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $50 thousand compared to $2.0 million for the comparable period in 2023. In the three months ended September 30, 2023, gains on disposition of assets included a $1.8 million gain related to a real estate transaction.

Operating income for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $3.6 million compared to $12.4 million in the same period in 2023.

Interest income, net for the three months ended September 30, 2024 decreased to $634 thousand from $860 thousand in the same period of the prior year due to lower average cash balances, as a result of the Company’s special dividend paid during the second quarter of 2024. Marine Products generates interest income primarily from investments of excess cash in money market funds.

Additionally, interest expense is recorded for the revolving credit facility, including fees on the unused portion of the facility and the amortization of loan costs.

Income tax provision was $820 thousand during the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $2.9 million for the same period in 2023. The effective provision rate was 19.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to 21.6% for the comparable period in the prior year. The decrease in the effective tax rate is primarily due to the impact of favorable permanent differences.

NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2024 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023

Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 decreased $124.1 million or 39.7% compared to the same period in 2023. The change in net sales during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the prior year was primarily due to a 40% decrease in unit sales volumes. Sales continued to be impacted by soft consumer demand, as dealers tightly manage their inventories to minimize floor plan carrying costs until demand improves.

In the nine months ended September 30, 2024, net sales outside of the United States accounted for 6.1% of net sales compared to 6.6% of net sales in the same period of the prior year.

Cost of goods sold for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $152.4 million compared to $235.9 million for the comparable period in 2023, a decrease of $83.5 million or 35.4%. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales was 80.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to 75.4% for the same period in the prior year due to lower sales volumes and associated manufacturing cost inefficiencies, coupled with the impact of reinstituting retail incentive programs. Production schedules and labor costs have been adjusted to more closely align with current demand.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 were $21.8 million compared to $35.5 million for the comparable period in 2023, a decrease of $13.7 million or 38.6%. This decrease was primarily due to costs that vary with sales and profitability, such as incentive compensation, sales commissions and warranty expense, as well as a decrease in pension expense in comparison to the same period of the prior year. In the nine months ended September 30, 2023, selling, general and administrative expenses also included a non-cash pension settlement charge of $2.3 million. Selling, general and administrative expenses were 11.6% of net sales in the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to 11.3% in the same period of the prior year.

Gain on disposition of assets, net for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $51 thousand compared to $2.0 million for the comparable period in 2023. In the nine months ended September 30, 2023, gains on disposition of assets included a $1.8 million gain related to a real estate transaction.

Operating income for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $14.6 million compared to $43.4 million in the same period in 2023.

Interest income, net for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 increased to $2.4 million from $2.1 million in the same period of the prior year due to higher average cash balances. Marine Products generates interest income primarily from investments of excess cash in money market funds. Additionally, interest expense is recorded for the revolving credit facility, including fees on the unused portion of the facility and the amortization of loan costs.

Income tax provision was $3.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $9.2 million for the same period in 2023. The effective provision rate was 19.8 percent for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to 20.2 percent for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The effective tax rate decreased primarily due to the impact of favorable permanent differences.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash Flows

The Company’s cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2024 were $53.5 million compared to $72.0 million at December 31, 2023. The following table sets forth the cash flows for the applicable periods:


	Nine months ended September 30,
(in thousands)	2024		2023
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	24,882	$	40,178
Net cash used for investing activities		(3,523)		(7,276)
Net cash used for financing activities		(39,778)		(15,368)

Cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, decreased by $15.3 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to the decrease in net income. In addition, working capital was a source of cash of $7.4 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $3.3 million in the same period of the prior year. Working capital was a source of cash in the current period due to a net favorable change of $9.0 million in inventory partially offset by a net unfavorable change in other components of working capital. The net favorable change in inventory during the current period was due primarily to the decrease in production. The changes in the other components of working capital were consistent with the decrease in net sales and lower production levels as well as the timing of payments and receipts.

Cash used for investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 decreased $3.8 million in comparison to the same period in the prior year due to lower capital expenditures during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Cash used for financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 increased $24.4 million in comparison to the nine months ended September 30, 2023 due to higher dividends paid to common shareholders, including a special dividend of $0.70 per share paid during the second quarter of 2024.

Financial Condition and Liquidity

The Company believes that the liquidity provided by existing cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, its overall strong capitalization, cash generated by operations and the Company’s revolving credit facility will provide sufficient capital to meet the Company’s requirements for at least the next twelve months. The Company’s decisions about the amount of cash to be used for investing and financing purposes are influenced by its capital position and the expected amount of cash to be provided by operations.

Cash Requirements

The Company currently expects that capital expenditures in 2024 will be approximately $5.0 million, of which $3.6 million has been spent through September 30, 2024.

The Company has repurchased an aggregate total of 6,679,572 shares in the open market under the Company stock repurchase program, which was initially adopted in 2001. As of September 30, 2024, there were 1,570,428 shares that remained available for repurchase under the current authorization. There were no shares repurchased under this program during both the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023.

On October 22, 2024, the Board of Directors approved the termination of the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”). Pursuant to the Internal Revenue Service rules, participant balances must be distributed between 12 months and 24 months after the termination of the SERP. The Company expects to distribute participant balances in the fourth quarter of 2025 and is currently evaluating its cash funding options.

Also, on October 22, 2024, the Board of Directors approved and declared a regular quarterly dividend of $0.14 per share payable December 10, 2024 to common stockholders of record at the close of business November 11, 2024. The Company expects to continue to pay cash dividends to common stockholders, subject to industry conditions and Marine Products’ earnings, financial condition, and other relevant factors.

To assist dealers in obtaining financing for the purchase of its boats for inventory, the Company has entered into agreements with various third-party floor plan lenders whereby the Company guarantees varying amounts of debt for qualifying dealers on boats in inventory. The Company’s obligation under these guarantees becomes effective in the case of a default under the financing arrangement between the dealer and the third-party lender. The agreements provide for the return of all repossessed boats to the Company in a new and unused condition as defined, in exchange for the Company’s assumption of specified percentages of the debt obligation on those boats, up to certain contractually determined dollar limits which vary by lender. The Company had no material financial impact associated with repurchases under these contractual agreements during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023.

Management continues to monitor the risk of defaults and resulting repurchase obligations based in part on information provided by the third-party floor plan lenders and will adjust the guarantee liability at the end of each reporting period based on information reasonably available at that time.

CERTAIN RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

In conjunction with its spin-off from RPC, Inc. in 2001, the Company and RPC entered into various agreements that define their relationship after the spin-off. RPC charged the Company for its allocable share of administrative costs incurred for services rendered on behalf of Marine Products totaling $858 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and $786 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Marine Products and RPC own 50% each of a limited liability company called 255 RC, LLC that was created for the joint purchase and ownership of a corporate aircraft. Marine Products recorded certain net operating costs comprised of rent and an allocable share of fixed costs of $123 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and $120 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The discussion of Critical Accounting Policies is incorporated herein by reference from the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. There have been no significant changes in the critical accounting policies since year-end.

IMPACT OF RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

See note titled Recent Accounting Standards in the Notes of the Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of recent accounting pronouncements, including the expected dates of adoption and expected effects on results of operations and financial condition, if known.

SEASONALITY

Marine Products’ quarterly operating results are affected by weather and general economic conditions. Quarterly operating results for the second quarter have historically recorded the highest sales volume for the year because this corresponds with the highest retail sales volume period. For similar reasons, quarterly operating results for the fourth quarter often record the lowest sales volume for the year. The results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected in any future period.

INFLATION

New boat buyers typically finance their purchases. The Company believes that the recent increase in interest rates (which is generally linked to higher inflation) has reduced retail demand for smaller boats, since purchasers of smaller boats are typically more sensitive to increases in the cost of boat ownership and typically finance their purchases. Higher interest rates also impact our dealers, as their boat purchases are financed and they bear much of the carrying costs of holding inventories. Lastly, the Company incurs higher costs from rising interest rates because we often pay a portion of dealer floor plan interest costs as part of our dealer sales incentive programs, which are described in more detail in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.

During 2021 and 2022, inflation in the general economy had increased to its highest level in more than 40 years due to economic growth following the COVID-19 pandemic, labor shortages, supply chain constraints, and U.S. fiscal policy. As a result, the market prices of the raw materials and components used by the Company’s manufacturing processes increased during these periods. In response to historically high consumer demand as well as higher raw materials and components costs, the Company increased the prices for its products. During 2023, prices of many raw materials used in the Company’s manufacturing processes began to decline, and transportation became more available and less expensive, thus easing the Company’s cost pressures. However, the Company believes the cost of boat ownership has risen enough to impact retail demand. Therefore, it may be more difficult to raise prices in the future to compensate for increased costs of raw materials and components, which could impact the Company’s sales and profit margins.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements made in this report that are not historical facts are “forward-looking statements” under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The words “may,” “should,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “seek,” “project,” “estimate,” and similar expressions used in this document that do not relate to historical facts are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements may include, without limitation: our attempts to optimize financial returns by closely monitoring dealer orders and inventories, the production mix of various models, and indications of demand such as consumer confidence, inflation concerns, interest rates, dealer orders placed at our annual dealer conferences, and retail attendance and orders at annual winter boat show exhibitions; our plans to consider trends related to certain key financial and other data, including our historical and forecasted financial results, market share, unit sales of our products, average selling price per boat, and gross profit margins, among others, as indicators of the success of our strategies; our plans to continue to monitor retail demand among the various segments in the recreational boat market, the actions of our competitors, dealer inventory levels and the availability of dealer and consumer financing for the purchase of our products and our plans to adjust our production levels as deemed appropriate; our belief that the strong retail demand for new recreational boats has now normalized; our belief that consumers are returning to more pre-pandemic routine lifestyles and rising interest rates are contributing to higher costs of boat ownership; statements that since many recreational boat purchasers finance their purchases, higher interest rates may discourage them from the purchase of a boat; our belief that softening consumer demand has resulted in generally elevated inventory levels in the dealer channel across brands and categories and that this higher level of Chaparral inventory results in higher floorplan financing costs for boat dealers compared to recent years; our plans to reinstitute certain retail incentives and other allowances to attract more consumers and help reduce channel inventory; our expectations regarding demand and our corresponding adjustment to production levels; our financial results are affected by consumer confidence — because pleasure boating is a discretionary expenditure, interest rates — because many retail customers finance the purchase of their boats, and other socioeconomic and environmental factors such as availability of leisure time, consumer preferences, demographics and the weather; our intention to continue our focus on increasing sales of larger boats; our belief that our financial results during the remainder of 2024 will depend on a number of factors, including economic trends, demand for discretionary products, the impact of interest rates on consumer financing options and dealer inventory carrying costs, the effectiveness of our incentive programs, the success of new model launches, and our ability to manage manufacturing costs in light of lower production levels compared to early 2023; our belief that our year-over-year comparisons of net sales will likely remain soft in the near term; our expectation that our year-over-year changes in gross margin will be less pronounced in the near-term as comparisons to prior year periods become less difficult; our belief that the liquidity provided by existing cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, our overall strong capitalization and cash generated by operations and our revolving credit facility will provide sufficient capital to meet our requirements for at least the next twelve months; our belief that our decisions about the amount of cash to be used for investing and financing purposes will be influenced by our capital position and the expected amount of cash to be provided by operations; our expectations that capital expenditures in 2024 will be approximately $5.0 million; our expectations regarding the distribution of balances with respect to the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan and corresponding payment options with respect thereto; our expectation to continue to pay cash dividends to common stockholders, subject to industry

conditions and our earnings, financial condition, and other relevant factors; statements regarding the seasonality of our business; our plans to continue to monitor the risk of defaults and resulting repurchase obligations based in part on information provided by third-party floor plan lenders and our plans to adjust the guarantee liability at the end of each reporting period based on information reasonably available at that time; our belief that the cost of boat ownership has risen enough to impact retail demand, and as a result, it will be more difficult to raise prices in the future to compensate for increased costs of raw materials and components, which could impact the Company’s sales and profit margins; our belief that the recent increase in interest rates has reduced retail demand for smaller boats, since purchasers of smaller boats are typically more sensitive to increases in the cost of boat ownership and typically finance their purchases; statements regarding our assessments of market risk exposures and that we do not expect any material changes in market risk exposures or how those risks are managed; our belief that the outcome of any litigation, arising from time to time in the ordinary course of our business, will not have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity; and statements regarding the agreements or contracts the Company has entered into with vendors, customers, lenders, and other third-parties and the anticipated benefits or obligations arising therefrom.

Such forward-looking statements are based on certain assumptions and analyses made by our management in light of its experience and its perception of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors it believes to be appropriate. We caution you that such statements are only predictions and not guarantees of future performance and that actual results, developments and business decisions may differ from those envisioned by the forward-looking statements. Risk factors that could cause such future events not to occur as expected include the following: our manufacturing operations are conducted in a single location, and to support our operations, several of our suppliers have also established facilities close to our manufacturing facility to provide timely delivery of fabricated components to us; as a result, catastrophic weather, civil unrest or other unanticipated events beyond our control may disrupt both our and our suppliers’ ability to conduct manufacturing operations or transport our finished boats to our dealer network, and we do not own or have access to alternate manufacturing locations; economic conditions, unavailability of credit and possible decreases in the level of consumer confidence impacting discretionary spending; business interruptions due to adverse weather conditions, increased interest rates, increased fuel costs, unanticipated changes in consumer demand and preferences, deterioration in the quality of Marine Products’ network of independent boat dealers or availability of financing of their inventory, or in our relationships with them; boat dealer defaults; our ability to insulate financial results against increasing commodity prices; competition from other boat manufacturers and dealers; continued lowering of consumer demand whether due to further increases to interest rates, overall impairment to the national and global economies, or because our designs fail to match evolving customer tastes and needs; the possibility that our strategy to increase the size of our product in response to changing market conditions may not achieve the success we anticipate; our ability to further raise prices in the future may be limited; disruptions in supplier relationships or the inability to continue to purchase construction materials in sufficient quantities and of sufficient quality at acceptable prices to meet production schedules; potential liabilities for personal injury or property damage claims relating to the use of our products; our ability to successfully identify suitable acquisition candidates or strategic partners, obtain financing on satisfactory terms, complete acquisitions or strategic alliances, integrate acquired operations into our existing operations, or expand into new markets; changes in various government laws and regulations, including environmental regulations and environmental, social and governance practices; the loss or interruption of the services of any senior management personnel or our ability to find qualified employees; our dependence on digital technologies and services and the risk of cyber-attacks, both from internal and external threats; the higher prices of materials, would increase the costs of manufacturing our products, and could negatively affect our profit margins; higher inflation, which typically results in higher interest rates that could translate into an increased cost of boat ownership which could cause prospective buyers to choose to forego or delay boat purchases; the existence of certain anti-takeover provisions in our governance documents, which could make a tender offer, change in control or takeover attempt that is opposed by Marine Products’ Board of Directors more difficult or expensive; and our cash and cash equivalents are held primarily at a single financial institution. Additional discussion of factors that could cause actual results to differ from management’s projections, forecasts, estimates and expectations is contained in Marine Products Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the year ended December 31, 2023, and in this Form 10-Q.

RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS	The FASB issued the following Accounting Standards Updates (ASUs): Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted: ASU No. 2023-07 — Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The amendments in this ASU require an entity to disclose the title and position of the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) and the significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the CODM and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss. These amendments are effective for annual disclosures beginning in 2024 and interim disclosures beginning in the first quarter of 2025, with early adoption permitted. These amendments are effective retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company has one reportable segment and is currently evaluating the impact of adopting these provisions on its consolidated financial statements. ASU No. 2023-09 — Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The amendments in this ASU require an entity to include consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid, disaggregated by jurisdiction. These amendments are effective for annual disclosures beginning in 2025, with early adoption permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting these provisions on its consolidated financial statements. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Final Rules: Climate related Disclosure: The SEC adopted final rules designed to enhance public company disclosures related to the risks and impacts of climate-related matters. The new rules require disclosures relating to climate-related risks and risk management as well as the board and management’s governance of such risks. In addition, the rules include requirements to disclose the financial effects of severe weather events and other natural conditions in the audited financial statements and disclose information about greenhouse gas emissions, which will be subject to a phased-in assurance requirement. On April 4, 2024, the SEC stayed its climate disclosure rules to “facilitate the orderly judicial resolution” of pending legal challenges. If litigation is resolved in favor of the SEC, a majority of the final rules will be effective for MPC beginning in the year 2026.
NET SALES	MPC’s contract revenues are generated principally from selling: (1) fiberglass motorized boats and accessories and (2) parts to independent dealers. Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with our customer are satisfied. Satisfaction of contract terms occurs with the transfer of title of our boats and accessories and parts to our dealers. Net sales are measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring the goods to the dealer. The amount of consideration we expect to receive consists of the sales price adjusted for dealer incentives. The expected costs associated with our base warranties continue to be recognized as expense when the products are sold as they are deemed to be assurance-type warranties (See Note titled Warranty Costs). Incidental promotional items that are immaterial in the context of the contract are recognized as expense. Fees charged to customers for shipping and handling are included in Net sales in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and the related costs incurred by the Company are included in Cost of goods sold.
