Hayward Holdings, Inc. files its annual report for the year ended December 31, 2025, outlining its global pool equipment and outdoor living business and key risks. The company focuses on aftermarket products, which represent approximately 85% of net sales, driven by repair, replacement and upgrades to energy‑efficient and IoT-enabled equipment.
Hayward operates through North America and Europe & Rest of World segments, which accounted for about 85% and 15% of net sales, respectively, in Fiscal Years 2025 and 2024. As of June 27, 2025, non‑affiliate shareholders held 212,120,869 common shares with an aggregate market value of about $2.93 billion, and 217,207,659 shares were outstanding as of February 23, 2026.
The report highlights risks around distributor concentration, competition, technology (including AI), cybersecurity, seasonality, supply chain dependence, international operations, inflation, indebtedness and extensive regulatory compliance. Hayward notes strong intellectual property with hundreds of patents and trademarks and a workforce of about 1,980 full‑time equivalent employees across the U.S. and international locations.
Hayward Holdings, Inc. reported solid growth for the fourth quarter and full fiscal year 2025, with both sales and profits moving higher. Fourth quarter net sales rose 7% to $349.4 million, while net income grew 25% to $68.4 million, lifting diluted EPS 24% to $0.31. Gross margin improved to 48.5% as higher pricing, lower warranty costs and operational efficiencies more than offset inflation and tariffs.
For full year 2025, net sales increased 7% to $1.1222 billion and net income rose 28% to $151.6 million, with diluted EPS up 26% to $0.68. Adjusted EBITDA grew 8% to $299.3 million and adjusted diluted EPS reached $0.77. Operating cash flow strengthened 21% to $256.0 million, supporting higher cash and short-term investments totaling roughly $399.1 million at year end and contributing to lower net leverage.
The North America segment drove most of the growth, with fourth quarter sales up 8% to $308.7 million and strong segment income. Europe & Rest of World sales dipped 1% to $40.7 million, though segment income increased 28%. Management also changed the presentation of warranty costs, moving them from SG&A to cost of sales, which affects gross profit and SG&A but not net income or cash flow.
Looking ahead, Hayward introduced 2026 guidance calling for net sales to grow about 4% over 2025 and adjusted diluted EPS of $0.82 to $0.86, an increase of roughly 6% to 12%. The company highlights strong aftermarket demand, pricing, technology adoption, and its SmartPad™ connected equipment as key drivers, and expects continued profitable growth and robust cash generation.
