Fiscal 2026 Third Quarter Summary

CEO & President Commentary

“Our team executed with discipline during the quarter, delivering meaningful gross margin expansion despite continued softness across the recreational marine industry,” said Brett McGill, Chief Executive Officer and President of MarineMax. “Improved margins on new and used boats, along with increased contributions from higher-margin businesses such as superyacht services, marinas, finance and insurance, and parts and service, drove higher profitability despite lower same-store sales. We also reduced inventory, generated cash, and further strengthened our balance sheet, reflecting our continued focus on operational excellence and capital efficiency.

“While demand remains tempered by a cautious consumer environment, industry inventory levels continue to normalize, supporting healthier pricing dynamics and margin recovery. Our diversified business model and disciplined operating approach position us to outperform the broader marine market.

“The quarter also reflects continued progress in strengthening our financial position and enhancing financial flexibility,” McGill continued. “Through prudent inventory management, debt reduction, and the successful refinancing of our $1.49 billion senior secured credit facilities, we extended debt maturities, increased available liquidity, and lowered our cost of capital. These actions, together with our strong cash generation, position us to invest selectively in attractive growth opportunities and continue executing our strategic priorities from a position of financial strength. We are confident in our ability to navigate the current environment and pursue opportunities that enhance our competitive position and drive value for shareholders.”

Fiscal 2026 Third Quarter Results

Revenue in the fiscal 2026 third quarter declined 7.0% to $611.3 million from $657.2 million in the prior-year period, primarily reflecting a 7% decline in same-store sales amid continued softness in the recreational marine retail market. The decline was partly offset by continued growth in the Company’s higher-margin businesses such as superyacht services, marinas (including IGY) and parts and service.

Gross profit increased 9.2% to $218.1 million from $199.6 million in the prior-year period. Gross margin increased 530 basis points to 35.7% from 30.4%, driven by improved new and used boat margins, favorable business mix, and continued growth in the Company’s higher-margin businesses. Gross margin for the quarter also benefitted by approximately 110 basis points from a tariff refund, the majority of which related to boat sales recorded earlier in the fiscal year.

Selling, general, and administrative (SG&A) expenses totaled $180.9 million, or 29.6% of revenue, compared with $172.1 million, or 26.2% of revenue, for the comparable period last year. Excluding transaction and other costs, intangible amortization, changes in contingent consideration, weather-related costs, and restructuring expenses, Adjusted SG&A2 increased $6.1 million, or 3.6%, from the fiscal 2025 third quarter.

Interest expense declined to $14.3 million, or 2.3% of revenue, from $16.9 million, or 2.6% of revenue, in the prior-year period, reflecting lower inventory levels and reduced borrowing costs following lower interest rates and disciplined balance sheet management.

Net income for the fiscal 2026 third quarter was $15.4 million, or $0.66 per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $52.1 million, or $2.42 per share, in the prior-year period. The third quarter of fiscal year 2025 included a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $69.1 million associated with the Company’s manufacturing segment. Adjusted net income1 was $18.8 million, or $0.81 per diluted share, compared with $1.0 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, in the prior-year period.

Adjusted EBITDA1 increased to $51.3 million from $35.5 million in the prior-year period.

Balance Sheet

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $174.8 million as of June 30, 2026, compared with $151.0 million at the end of the prior-year period.

Inventories declined 13.0% to $788.6 million from $906.2 million in the prior-year period.

Fiscal 2026 Guidance

Based on results to date, current business conditions, retail trends and other factors, the Company continues to expect fiscal 2026 Adjusted EBITDA1,2 to be in the range of $110 million to $125 million and adjusted net income1,2 in the range of $0.40 to $0.95 per diluted share. These projections exclude the potential impact of material acquisitions and other unforeseen developments, including changes in tariffs, geopolitical conflicts, and broader macroeconomic conditions.

“While we remain mindful of geopolitical and macroeconomic uncertainty, we are encouraged by the continued strength of our higher-margin businesses, improving boat margins, and the progress we have made strengthening our balance sheet,” McGill concluded. “Supported by our diversified business model, disciplined operating approach, strong liquidity, and enhanced financial flexibility, we believe MarineMax is well positioned to navigate current market conditions and capitalize on opportunities as industry fundamentals continue to normalize, with a continued emphasis on driving profitable growth, generating strong cash flow, allocating capital prudently, and creating value for our shareholders.”

1,2 Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release, along with the above Supplemental Financial Information table, contains “Adjusted net income attributable to MarineMax, Inc.,” “Adjusted diluted net income per common share,” “Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization” (“Adjusted EBITDA”), and “Adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses” (“Adjusted SG&A”), which are non-GAAP financial measures as defined under applicable securities legislation. Adjusted SG&A expenses represent SG&A expenses adjusted for transaction and other costs, intangible amortization, change in fair value of contingent consideration, weather expenses, and restructuring expenses. See the tables labeled, “Supplemental Financial Information” for the excluded amounts for both periods for Adjusted SG&A.

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 2026 Adjusted net income 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 net income and Adjusted EBITDA are not available without unreasonable effort.
