Steve Menneto, President and Chief Executive Officer of Malibu Boats, Inc., commented, "Fiscal 2026 demonstrated the power of our strategic execution. We delivered a strong finish to the year, driven by better than expected net sales, disciplined cost management, dealer network optimization, and the successful integration of Saxdor in our first four months with the business. We also invested meaningfully in innovation as our Model Year 2026 lineup added eleven new models across the portfolio that brought new features as well as value to our product line. The Saxdor integration is progressing well, with the completion of our first domestically-built Saxdor boats at our Fort Pierce, Florida facility expected in the first half of fiscal 2027. While we're seeing early signs of stabilization across the industry, we are contending with macro disruptions that continue to pressure the payment buyer, which presents a near-term headwind to an inflection in the cycle. That said, we like how we're positioned relative to the industry heading into fiscal 2027 and expect to build on the momentum we established, while remaining intentional about our outlook until we see more durable evidence of a broader recovery."
David Black, Chief Financial Officer of Malibu Boats, Inc., added, "We closed the year with a strong balance sheet and began our new fiscal year with the completion of our credit agreement refinancing, which extends our maturity through 2031 and gives us added liquidity and flexibility. Our leverage remains well below our stated maximum target, even after financing the Saxdor acquisition. While we chose to pause our open market purchases during our lender negotiations, the Board authorized a new

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release includes the following financial measures defined as non-GAAP financial measures by the Securities and Exchange Commission: Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted net income per share, and Free Cash Flow. These measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income as determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) or as an indicator of our liquidity. Our presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures should also not be construed as an inference that our results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. Our computations of these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
We define Adjusted EBITDA as net 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 litigation settlements, acquisition and integration related expenses, adjustment to earnout liability, certain professional fees, 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 income as determined by GAAP. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin allow investors to evaluate our 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 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 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.
Adjusted net 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 income per share, excludes items that management does not believe are indicative of our core operating performance.
We define adjusted net income per share as net income attributable to Malibu Boats, Inc. per share, excluding income tax expense, and non-cash, non-operating expenses, or other expenses that we do not believe are indicative of our ongoing expenses, litigation settlements, acquisition related amortization, acquisition and integration related expenses, adjustment to earnout liability, certain professional fees and non-cash compensation expense, and reflecting an adjustment for income tax expense on adjusted income before income taxes at our estimated effective income tax rate.
We exclude the items listed above from net income per share in arriving at adjusted net 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 income per share has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net 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 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.
A reconciliation of our net income as determined in accordance with GAAP to Adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation of net income per share attributable to Malibu Boats, Inc. as determined in accordance with GAAP to adjusted net income per share is provided under "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures".
We define Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by operating activities, plus cash used for capital expenditures and plus proceeds from the sale of property plant and equipment.
Free Cash Flow has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net cash provided by operating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP or as an indicator of our liquidity. Our computation of this measure may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
A reconciliation of our net cash provided by operating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP to Free Cash Flow is provided under "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures".
