BUFORD, GA – February 1, 2024 – OneWater Marine Inc. (NASDAQ: ONEW) (“OneWater” or the “Company”) today announced results for its fiscal first quarter ended December 31, 2023.
“We delivered same store sales growth of 2% despite an increasingly competitive landscape with more moderated pricing. As expected, the return to traditional seasonal patterns and mix shift impacted results, with a preference towards our larger boat offerings during the historically slower winter months. While margins continue to stabilize, we are cautiously optimistic that we are nearing a new normal across the industry,” commented Austin Singleton, Chief Executive Officer at OneWater.
“We have had a wild ride in our first four years as a public company. Through it all, our team adapted quickly, which enabled significant growth and expansion. As we move forward in this more normalized environment, we remain focused on executing on our strategic growth objectives, while continuing to outperform the industry and drive enhanced value for our shareholders.”

Fiscal First Quarter 2024 Results
Revenue for fiscal first quarter 2024 was $364.0 million, a decrease of 0.7% compared to $366.7 million in fiscal first quarter 2023. Same-store sales increased 2%.
New boat revenue increased 3.7%, driven by an increase in average price per unit, partially offset by a slight decrease in units sold. Finance & insurance income decreased 17.6% compared to the prior year quarter due to less favorable rates in the increasingly competitive environment, but supported by typical finance penetration. Pre-owned boat revenue decreased 4.5% driven by the decrease in brokerage and consignment sales, partially offset by the increase in pre-owned sales from trade-ins. Service, parts & other sales were down 10.4% compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to a reduction in parts and accessories sold to original equipment manufacturers and the disposal of Roscioli Yachting Center and Lookout Marine.
Gross profit totaled $91.4 million for fiscal first quarter 2024, down $18.5 million from $110.0 million for fiscal first quarter 2023. Gross profit margin of 25.1% decreased 490 basis points compared to the prior year period, driven by the seasonal shift in volume, mix, and size of boats sold, as well as lower revenue from higher margin businesses.
Fiscal first quarter 2024 selling, general and administrative expenses totaled $79.6 million, or 21.9% of revenue, compared to $77.8 million, or 21.2% of revenue, in fiscal first quarter 2023. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue was driven by expenses incurred to support maintaining revenues, including increased boat show related expenses, partially offset by decreased personnel expenses.
Net loss for fiscal first quarter 2024 totaled $(8.0) million, compared to net income of $11.4 million in fiscal first quarter 2023. The Company reported a net loss per diluted share for fiscal first quarter 2024 of $(0.49), compared to net income per diluted share of $0.61 in 2023. Adjusted diluted loss per share1 for fiscal first quarter 2024 was $(0.38), compared to adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.73 in 2023.
Fiscal first quarter 2024 Adjusted EBITDA1 decreased 76.6% to $7.1 million compared to $30.4 million for fiscal first quarter 2023.
As of December 31, 2023, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents balance was $44.6 million and total liquidity, including cash and availability under credit facilities, was in excess of $65.0 million. Total inventory as of December 31, 2023, increased to $706.8 million compared to $609.6 million on September 30, 2023, primarily driven by the return of traditional seasonal cycles where the Company builds inventory in the winter months.
Total long-term debt as of December 31, 2023 was $439.8 million, and adjusted long-term net debt (net of $44.6 million cash)1 was 2.6 times trailing twelve-month Adjusted EBITDA1.
Fiscal Year 2024 Guidance
The Company is maintaining its previously issued fiscal full year 2024 outlook. For fiscal full year 2024, OneWater anticipates dealership same-store sales to be up low to mid-single digits. Adjusted EBITDA2 is expected to be in the range of $130 million to $155 million and earnings per diluted share is expected to be in the range of $3.25 to $3.75.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key Performance Indicators
This press release and our related earnings call contain certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net (Loss) Income Attributable to OneWater Marine Inc., Adjusted Diluted (Loss) Earnings Per Share and Adjusted Long-Term Net Debt, as measures of our operating performance. Management believes these measures may be useful in performing meaningful comparisons of past and present operating results, to understand the performance of the Company’s ongoing operations and how management views the business. Reconciliations of reported GAAP measures to adjusted non-GAAP measures are included in the financial schedules contained in this press release. These measures, however, should not be construed as an alternative to any other measure of performance determined in accordance with GAAP. Because our non-GAAP financial measures may be defined differently by other companies, our definition of these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing its utility. We have not reconciled non-GAAP forward-looking measures, including Adjusted EBITDA guidance, to their corresponding GAAP measures due to the high variability and difficulty in making accurate forecasts and projections, particularly with respect to change in fair value of contingent consideration and transaction costs. Change in fair value of contingent consideration and transaction costs are affected by the acquisition, integration and post-acquisition performance of our acquirees which is difficult to predict and subject to change. Accordingly, reconciliations of forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA are not available without unreasonable effort.
Adjusted EBITDA
We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense – other, income tax (benefit) expense, depreciation and amortization and other (income) expense, further adjusted to eliminate the effects of items such as the change in fair value of contingent consideration, gain (loss) on extinguishment of debt, loss on impairment, stock-based compensation and transaction costs. See reconciliation above.
Our board of directors, management team and lenders use Adjusted EBITDA to assess our financial performance because it allows them to compare our operating performance on a consistent basis across periods by removing the effects of our capital structure (such as varying levels of interest expense), asset base (such as depreciation and amortization) and other items (such as the change in fair value of contingent consideration, gain or loss on extinguishment of debt, income tax (benefit) expense, loss on impairment, stock-based compensation and transaction costs) that impact the comparability of financial results from period to period. We present Adjusted EBITDA because we believe it provides useful information regarding the factors and trends affecting our business in addition to measures calculated under GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is not a financial measure presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe that the presentation of this non-GAAP financial measure will provide useful information to investors and analysts in assessing our financial performance and results of operations across reporting periods by excluding items we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance.
Adjusted Net (Loss) Income Attributable to OneWater Marine Inc. and Adjusted Diluted (Loss) Earnings Per Share
We define Adjusted Net (Loss) Income Attributable to OneWater Marine Inc. as Net Income (Loss) Attributable to OneWater Marine Inc. before transaction costs, intangible amortization, change in fair value of contingent consideration, loss on impairment and other expense (income), all of which are then adjusted for an allocation to the non-controlling interest of OneWater Marine Holdings, LLC. Each of these adjustments are subsequently adjusted for income tax at an estimated effective tax rate. Management also reports Adjusted Diluted (Loss) Earnings Per Share which presents all of the adjustments to net income attributable to OneWater Marine Inc. noted above on a per share basis. See reconciliation above.
Our board of directors, management team and lenders use Adjusted Net (Loss) Income Attributable to OneWater Marine Inc. and Adjusted Diluted (Loss) Earnings Per Share to assess our financial performance because it allows them to compare our operating performance on a consistent basis across periods by removing the effects of unusual or one time charges and other items (such as the change in fair value of contingent consideration, intangible amortization, loss on impairment and transaction costs) that impact the comparability of financial results from period to period. We present these metrics because we believe they provide useful information regarding the factors and trends affecting our business in addition to measures calculated under GAAP. Adjusted Net (Loss) Income Attributable to OneWater Marine Inc. and Adjusted Diluted (Loss) Earnings Per Share are not financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures will provide useful information to investors and analysts in assessing our financial performance and results of operations across reporting periods by excluding items we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance.
Adjusted Long-Term Net Debt
We define Adjusted Long-Term Net Debt as long-term debt (including current portion) less cash. We consider, and we believe certain investors and analysts consider, adjusted long-term net debt, as well as adjusted long-term net debt divided by trailing twelve-month Adjusted EBITDA, to be an indicator of our financial leverage.
Same-Store Sales
We define same-store sales as sales from our Dealership segment, excluding new and acquired stores. New and acquired stores become eligible for inclusion in the comparable store base at the end of the store’s thirteenth month of operations under our ownership and revenues are only included for identical months in the same-store base periods. Stores relocated within an existing market remain in the comparable store base for all periods. Additionally, amounts related to closed stores are excluded from each comparative base period. We use same-store sales to assess the organic growth of our Dealership segment revenue. We believe that our assessment on a same-store basis represents an important indicator of comparative financial results and provides relevant information to assess our performance.
Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements
This press release and statements made during the above referenced conference call may contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including regarding our strategy, future operations, financial position, prospects, plans and objectives of management, growth rate and its expectations regarding future revenue, operating income or loss or earnings or loss per share.

These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, but are based on management’s current expectations, assumptions and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effect on us, which are inherently subject to uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Our expectations expressed or implied in these forward-looking statements may not turn out to be correct.
Important factors, some of which are beyond our control, that could cause actual results to differ materially from our historical results or those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements include the following: effects of industry wide supply chain challenges including a heightened inflationary environment and our ability to maintain adequate inventory, changes in demand for our products and services, the seasonality and volatility of the boat industry, fluctuation in interest rates, adverse weather events, our acquisition and business strategies, the inability to comply with the financial and other covenants and metrics in our credit facilities, cash flow and access to capital, effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business, risks related to the ability to realize the anticipated benefits of any proposed acquisitions, including the risk that proposed acquisitions will not be integrated successfully, the timing of development expenditures, and other risks. More information on these risks and other potential factors that could affect our financial results is included in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including in the “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” sections of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2023 and in our subsequently filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, each of which is on file with the SEC and available from OneWater Marine’s website at www.onewatermarine.com under the “Investors” tab, and in other documents OneWater Marine files with the SEC. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date as of which such statement is made, and, except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether because of new information, future events, or otherwise.
