Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Latham Group reported second quarter 2026 net sales of $197.5 million, up 14.4% with 10.3% organic growth, led by in-ground pool sales up 22.5% and double-digit growth in the Sand States. Gross profit rose 9.6% to $70.1 million, though gross margin fell 160 basis points to 35.5% due largely to $2.8 million of ramp-up costs.

SG&A increased 17.8% to $37.6 million as the company invested in sales, marketing and acquisitions. Net income declined to $12.8 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, from $16.0 million, pressured by a $5.0 million unfavorable swing in foreign currency gains and losses. Adjusted EBITDA increased 11.9% to $44.6 million, with a 22.6% margin.

For the first half, net sales grew 10.8% to $314.8 million while net income fell to $4.2 million. The company ended the quarter with $43.5 million of cash, net debt leverage of 2.24x, and raised its 2026 outlook to $600–$620 million of net sales and $110–$120 million of Adjusted EBITDA.

Positive

  • Raised 2026 outlook, guiding net sales to $600–$620 million (11.7% growth at the midpoint) and Adjusted EBITDA to $110–$120 million, implying 15.2% Adjusted EBITDA growth at the midpoint.
  • Strong top-line momentum with Q2 net sales up 14.4% to $197.5 million and in-ground pool sales up 22.5%, including double-digit growth in the Sand States.

Negative

  • GAAP profitability weakened, as Q2 net income fell to $12.8 million (6.5% margin) from $16.0 million (9.3%), and first-half net income declined to $4.2 million from $10.0 million, pressured by higher SG&A and unfavorable foreign currency movements.

Filing Explained

At June 27, 2026, Latham reported 117,535,232 shares outstanding; the filing does not establish how that count changed from year-end.

This August 4, 2026 Form 8-K furnishes the company’s second-quarter results and remains a completed reporting disclosure, not a transaction announcement. It reports 117,535,232 common shares issued and outstanding at June 27, 2026, versus 116,766,927 at December 31, 2025.

Those figures are dated balance-sheet snapshots: they establish the reported share counts at each date, but not the mechanism connecting the two counts.

The first-half cash-flow statement reports $5,783 thousand of cash provided by operating activities and $30,303 thousand used in investing activities, including $16,053 thousand of capital expenditures and $14,250 thousand for an acquisition. Cash consequently declined by $27,563 thousand to $43,480 thousand by June 27, 2026, while the filing also reports $279,813 thousand of total debt.

Adjusted EBITDA financial
"This earnings release includes the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin"
Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.
Net Debt Leverage Ratio financial
"We define the Net Debt Leverage Ratio as Net Debt divided by last twelve months"
Net debt leverage ratio measures how many years of a company’s core earnings would be needed to pay off its debt after accounting for cash on hand, calculated by dividing net debt (total debt minus cash) by annual operating earnings. Investors use it like a household debt-to-income check: a lower number means the company is in a stronger position to handle obligations and take risks, while a higher number signals greater financial strain and vulnerability to shocks.
performance-based compensatory earn-out expenses financial

LATHAM, N.Y. – August 4, 2026 – Latham Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: SWIM), the largest designer, manufacturer, and marketer of in-ground residential swimming pools in North America, Australia, and New Zealand, today announced financial results for the second quarter 2026 ended June 27, 2026.
Commenting on the results, Sean Gadd, President and CEO, said, “Second quarter sales growth was driven by execution of our strategic priorities and supports our expectations of continued share gains across our product lines. Our in-ground pool sales increased 22.5%, or 13.6% organically, led by fiberglass pool sales, which are on track to account for approximately 80% of our full year in-ground pool sales in 2026. Cover sales were up 10% in the second quarter, led by growth in autocovers, indicating a steady increase in attachment rates on new pool installations.
“We continued to gain traction in the Sand States, a key growth market for Latham, where second quarter sales increased at a double-digit rate. As noted last quarter, we are moving ahead with several new initiatives to accelerate our growth in these geographies, which have the potential to drive a step-change in companywide sales. In the last several months, we have made considerable progress in building our commercial organization, identified multiple target micro-markets as part of a refined market development framework around segmentation by communities, and added sales resources in the field to facilitate the sales process in concert with our dealers.

“Second quarter gross profit increased, supported by higher volume and continued progress with lean manufacturing and value engineering initiatives. Demand for fiberglass pools accelerated faster than our typical seasonal ramp-up, resulting in approximately $2.8 million of incremental costs in the quarter, which represented a gross margin headwind of approximately 140 basis points. The majority of these costs are expected to be recovered in the second half of the year. Adjusted EBITDA increased 11.9% year-over-year, with adjusted EBITDA margin of 22.6%, reflecting the impact of lower gross margin and the timing of sales and marketing investments. We also completed a program to optimize certain operational and administrative functions, which is enabling us to redeploy resources to sales and marketing initiatives designed to accelerate growth."
Second Quarter 2026 Results Compared to the Prior-Year Period
Net sales increased 14.4% to $197.5 million. The increase in net sales was primarily the result of organic growth in each of our product lines, particularly the growth of our in-ground pool sales, sales growth in the Sand States, the acquisition of Freedom Pools, and the full year benefit of the 2025 price increase.

Gross profit increased by 9.6% to $70.1 million. Gross margin was 35.5%, 160-basis points below year-ago levels. Gross profit and gross margin included quarter-specific ramp-up costs of approximately $2.8 million, or 140 basis points.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) increased by 17.8% to $37.6 million. The increase in SG&A was due to investments in our growth strategies, the timing of sales and marketing initiatives to accelerate the fiberglass conversion strategy in the Sand States, acquisition and integration related costs, which included $2.2 million of performance-based compensatory earn-out expenses related to our Coverstar Central acquisition in 2024, as well as our digital transformation efforts.
Net income was $12.8 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, compared to $16.0 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, in the prior year period. Net income margin was 6.5% compared to 9.3% and included an unfavorable change in net foreign currency transaction gains and losses associated with our international subsidiaries of $5.0 million.

picture2a.jpg



Adjusted EBITDA increased by 11.9% to $44.6 million; adjusted EBITDA margin contracted by 50 basis points to 22.6%, due to lower gross margin and the timing of sales and marketing campaigns to accelerate market penetration in the Sand States.
Six Months 2026 Results Compared to the Prior-Year Period
Net sales increased 10.8% to $314.8 million, primarily due to organic growth of 7.5% with the acquisition of Freedom Pools contributing the remainder.
Gross profit increased by 10.7% to $107.2 million. Gross margin of 34.1% was in line with the prior year and included second-quarter-specific ramp-up costs that offset the benefits of lean manufacturing and value engineering initiatives.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased by 18.6% to $74.2 million. The increase in SG&A was primarily driven by increased sales and marketing investments to accelerate our fiberglass conversion strategy in the Sand States, acquisition and integration-related costs, which included $4.5 million of performance-based compensatory earn-out expenses related to our Coverstar Central acquisition in 2024, and costs related to our digital transformation program.
Net income was $4.2 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, compared to $10.0 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, in the prior year period. Net income margin was 1.3% compared to 3.5% and included an unfavorable change in net foreign currency transaction gains and losses associated with our international subsidiaries of $6.4 million.
Adjusted EBITDA increased by 11.3% to $56.8 million, and adjusted EBITDA margin remained flat at 18.0%.
Balance Sheet, Cash Flow, and Liquidity
Latham ended the second quarter of 2026 with cash of $43.5 million. Net cash provided by operating activities was $53.5 million in the second quarter. In the first half, net cash provided by operating activities was $5.8 million, representing seasonal trends in working capital requirements in line with the Company’s expectations.
Total debt was $279.8 million at the end of the second quarter, and the net debt leverage ratio was 2.2.
Capital expenditures totaled $5.6 million in the second quarter of 2026, compared to $6.8 million in the comparable quarter last year. First half capital expenditures were $28.1 million, inclusive of the purchase of the four key production sites. In last year’s first half, capital expenditures were $10.3 million. In addition, the Company completed the acquisition of Freedom Pools for a purchase price of $17.0 million in February 2026.
Summary and Outlook
“Our strong first-half results support our conviction that Latham has substantial growth opportunities, and that we are gaining share in a market that we expect to be flat versus the prior year. Based on our year-to-date performance and our current visibility into Q3, we are pleased to increase our full year guidance for sales and adjusted EBITDA growth. Our revised guidance for 2026, contained in the table below, anticipates net sales growth of 11.7% at the midpoint, of
3
picture2a.jpg

which 8.4% is expected to be organic growth, and adjusted EBITDA growth of 15.2% at the midpoint, while we continue to invest to grow our position in established markets and drive material conversion in the Sand States.
“As a leader in each of our product categories, Latham is well-positioned to continue to significantly outperform new U.S. pool starts, supported by the commitment to excellence that our people have consistently shown and the loyalty and trust of our dealers,” Mr. Gadd concluded.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
4
picture2a.jpg

We track our non-GAAP financial measures to monitor and manage our underlying financial performance. This earnings release includes the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, net debt and net debt leverage ratio, which are non-GAAP financial measures that exclude the impact of certain costs, losses, and gains that are required to be included under U.S. GAAP. Although we believe these measures are useful to investors and analysts for the same reasons it is useful to management, as discussed below, these measures are neither a substitute for, nor superior to, U.S. GAAP financial measures or disclosures. Other companies may calculate similarly-titled non-GAAP measures differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. In addition, our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed to imply that our future results will be unaffected by any such adjustments. We have reconciled our historic non-GAAP financial measures to the applicable most comparable U.S. GAAP measures in this news release.
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are key metrics used by management and our board of directors to assess our financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are also frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry, when considered alongside other GAAP measures. We use Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin to supplement GAAP measures of performance to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies, to make budgeting decisions, to utilize as a significant performance metric in our incentive compensation plans, and to compare our performance against that of other companies using similar measures. We have presented Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin solely as supplemental disclosures because we believe they allow for a more complete analysis of results of operations and assist investors and analysts in comparing our operating performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance, such as (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) interest expense, net, (iii) income tax expense (benefit) (iv), (gain) loss on sale and disposal of property and equipment, (v) restructuring charges, (vi) stock-based compensation expense, (vii) unrealized (gains) losses on foreign currency transactions, (viii) strategic initiative costs, (ix) acquisition and integration related costs and (x) other.
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are non-GAAP financial measures and should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss) as a measure of financial performance or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, and they should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. We encourage evaluation of these adjustments and the reasons we consider them appropriate for supplemental analysis. In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, be mindful that in the future we may incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in this earnings release. There can be no assurance that we will not modify the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin in the future, and any such modification may be material. In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, may not calculate Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin at all or may calculate Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin differently and accordingly, are not necessarily comparable to similarly entitled measures of other companies, which reduces the usefulness of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin as tools for comparison.
5
picture2a.jpg

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin have their limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin:
•do not reflect every expenditure, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
•do not reflect changes in our working capital needs;
•do not reflect the interest expense, net, or the amounts necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our outstanding debt;
•do not reflect income tax (benefit) expense, and because the payment of taxes is part of our operations, tax expense is a necessary element of our costs and ability to operate;
•do not reflect non-cash stock-based compensation, which will remain a key element of our overall compensation package; and
•do not reflect the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations.
Although depreciation and amortization are eliminated in the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin do not reflect any costs of such replacements.
Net Debt and Net Debt Leverage Ratio
Net Debt and Net Debt Leverage Ratio are non-GAAP financial measures used in monitoring and evaluating our overall liquidity, financial flexibility, and leverage. Other companies may calculate similarly titled non-GAAP measures differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. We define Net Debt as total debt less cash and cash equivalents. We define the Net Debt Leverage Ratio as Net Debt divided by last twelve months (“LTM”) of Adjusted EBITDA. We believe this measure is an important indicator of our ability to service our long-term debt obligations. There are material limitations to using Net Debt Leverage Ratio as we may not always be able to use cash to repay debt on a dollar-for-dollar basis.
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements in this earnings release constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements contained in this release other than statements of historical fact may constitute forward-looking statements, including statements regarding our future operating results and financial position, our business strategy and plans, business and market trends, our objectives for future operations, macroeconomic and geopolitical conditions, changes in U.S. trade priorities, policies, regulations and tariffs, the implementation of our cost reduction plans and expected benefits, and the sufficiency of our cash balances, working capital and cash generated from operating, investing, and financing activities for our future liquidity and capital resource needs.
