These agreements also allow us to use these manufacturers’ names, trade symbols, and intellectual properties in our operations.

We have multi-year dealer The agreements with Brunswick coveringfor Sea Ray and Boston Whaler products, thatrespectively, appoint us as the exclusive dealer of Sea Ray boats in our geographic markets. We are the exclusive dealer forand Boston Whaler through multi-year dealer agreements for many ofboats, respectively, in our geographic markets. In addition, we are the exclusive dealer for Azimut Yachts for the entire United States through a multi-year dealer agreement.States. Sales of new Azimut boatsyachts accounted for approximately 9%8% of our revenue in fiscal 2017.2022. We believe non-Brunswick brands offer a migration for our existing customer base or fill a void in our product offerings, and accordingly, do not compete with the business generated from our other prominent brands.

In October 2022, we completed the acquisition of IGY Marinas. IGY Marinas maintains a network of luxury marinas situated in yachting and sport fishing destinations around the world. IGY Marinas has created standards for service and quality in nautical tourism. It offers a global network of marinas in the Americas, the Caribbean, and Europe, delivering year-round accommodations. IGY Marinas caters to a wide variety of luxury yachts, while also being exclusive home ports for some of the world’s largest megayachts. In December 2022, we acquired Midcoast Construction Enterprises, LLC (Midcoast Marine Group), a leading full-service marine construction company based on Central Florida’s Gulf Coast. In January 2023, we acquired Boatzon, a boat and marine digital retail platform, through our recently formed technology entity, New Wave Innovations. In June 2023, we acquired C&C Boat Works, a full-service boat dealer in Crosslake, Minnesota.

As is typical in the industry, we deal with most of our manufacturers, other than Sea Ray, Boston Whaler, Meridian, and Azimut Yachts, under renewable annual dealer agreements, each of which gives us the right to sell various makes and models of boats within a given geographic region. Any change or termination of these agreements, or the agreements discussed above, for any reason, or changes in competitive, regulatory or marketing practices, including rebate or incentive programs, could adversely affect our results of operations. Although there are a limited number of manufacturers of the type of boats and products that we sell, we believe that adequate alternative sources would be available to replace any manufacturer other than Sea Ray, Boston Whaler, and Azimut as a product source. These alternative sources may not be available at the time of any interruption, and alternative products may not be available at comparable terms, which could adversely affect operating results adversely.results.

General economic conditions and consumer spending patterns can negatively impact our operating results. Unfavorable local, regional, national, or global economic developments or uncertainties regarding future economic prospects could reduce consumer spending in the markets we serve and adversely affect our business. Economic conditions in areas in which we operate dealerships, particularly Florida in which we generated approximately 53%54%, 55%,50% and 55%51% of our dealership revenue during fiscal 2015, 2016,2020, 2021, and 2017,2022, respectively, can have a major impact on our operations. Local influences, such as corporate downsizing, military base closings, inclement weather such as Hurricane Sandy in 2012 or Hurricanes Harvey and Irma in 2017 and Hurricane Ian in 2022, environmental conditions, and specific events, such as the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010, also could adversely affect, and in certain instances have adversely affected, our operations in certain markets.

In an economic downturn, consumer discretionary spending levels generally decline, at times resulting in disproportionately large reductions in the sale of luxury goods. Consumer spending on luxury goods also may decline as a result of lower consumer confidence levels, even if prevailing economic conditions are favorable. As a result, an economic downturn couldwould likely impact us more than certain of our competitors due to our strategic focus on a higher end of our market. Although we have expanded our operations during periods

of stagnant or modestly declining industry trends, the cyclical nature of the recreational boating industry or the lack of industry growth may adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Any period of adverse economic conditions or low consumer confidence is likely to have a negative effect on our business.


Lower consumer spending resulting from a downturnHistorically, in the housing market and other economic factors adversely affected our business in fiscal 2007, and continued weakness inperiods of lower consumer spending and depressed economic conditions, had a substantial negative effect on our business and industry for several years after fiscal 2007.  These conditions caused us towe have, among other things, substantially reducereduced our acquisition program, delaydelayed new store openings, reducereduced our inventory purchases, engageengaged in inventory reduction efforts, closeclosed a number of our retail locations, reducereduced our headcount, and amendamended and replacereplaced our credit facility. Acquisitions remain an important strategy for us, and, new store openings remain important strategiessubject to our company,a number of conditions, including macro-economic conditions and finding attractive acquisition targets, we plan to accelerate our growth through these strategies as economic conditions continue to improve.  However, we cannot predict the length of unfavorable economic or industry conditions or the extent to which they will continue to adversely affect our operating results nor can we predict the effectiveness of the measures we have taken to addressexplore opportunities through this environment.strategy.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS:

In May 2014,September 2022, the FASBFinancial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” (“ASU 2014-09”), a converged standard on revenue recognition.  The new pronouncement requires revenue recognition2022-04 — Liabilities — Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations which is intended to depictenhance the transfertransparency surrounding the use of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.supplier finance programs. The guidance also specifiesrequires companies that use supplier finance programs to make annual disclosures about the accounting for some costs to obtainprogram’s key terms, the balance sheet presentation of related amounts, the confirmed amount outstanding at the end of the period and associated roll forward information. Only the amount outstanding at the end of the period must be disclosed in interim periods. The guidance does not affect the recognition, measurement or fulfill a contract with a customer, as well as enhanced disclosure requirements.  ASU 2014-09 isfinancial statement presentation of supplier finance program obligations. The guidance becomes effective for annual reporting periodsfiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017,2022, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. Early adoptionthose fiscal years, except for the roll forward information, which is permittedeffective for annual reporting periodsfiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016.  While we are continuing to evaluate the impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, we currently do not believe the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, or will cause a significant change to our current accounting policies or internal control over financial reporting for revenue recognition on boat, motor, and trailer sales, parts and service operations, brokerage commissions, slip and storage services, charter rentals, and fee income generated from finance and insurance products.2023. We plan to adopt ASU 2014-092022-04 in fiscal 2019.


In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”).  This update requires organizations to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and also disclose key information about leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those annual periods. Earlier application is permitted for all entities as of the beginning of an interim or annual period.  While we are continuing to evaluate the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02 on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, we believe the adoption of ASU 2016-02 may have a significant and material impact to our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet given our current lease agreements for our leased retail locations.2024. We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on our other unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.  Based on a preliminary assessment, we expect that most of our operating lease commitments will be subject to the new guidance and recognized as operating lease liabilities and right-of-use assets upon adoption, resulting in a material increase in the assets and liabilities recorded on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.  We are continuing our assessment, which may identify additional impacts this standard will have on our consolidated financial statementsstatements.

The Company currently has no other material accounting pronouncements recently adopted or yet to be adopted as of June 30, 2023.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS:

The Company uses valuation approaches that maximize the use of observable inputs and related disclosuresminimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. The Company determines fair value based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability in the principal or most advantageous market. When considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the following fair value hierarchy distinguishes between observable and internal control overunobservable inputs, which are categorized in one of the following levels:

Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities accessible to the reporting entity at the measurement date.

Level 2 - Other than quoted prices included in Level 1 inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at measurement date.

The following tables summarize the Company’s financial reporting. We plan to adopt ASU 2016-02assets and liabilities measured at fair value in fiscal 2020.the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets:

There were no transfers between the valuation hierarchy Levels 1, 2, and 3 for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2023.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, “Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment (Topic 350)” (“ASU 2017-04”).  This update removes the requirement to compare the impliedThe fair value of goodwillthe Company’s interest rate swap contract is calculated as the present value of expected future cash flows, determined on the basis of forward interest rates and present value factors. The inputs to the fair value measurements reflect Level 2 inputs. The interest rate swap contract balance is included in other long-term assets in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The interest rate swap contract is designated as a cash flow hedge with its carrying amount as partchanges in fair value reported in other comprehensive income in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of step 2Comprehensive Income. For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2023, no significant amounts were reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income.

The fair value of the goodwill impairment test. AsCompanys contingent consideration liabilities is based on the present value of the expected future payments to be made to the sellers of the acquired entities in accordance with the provisions outlined in the respective purchase agreements, which is a Level 3 fair value measurement. In determining fair value, we estimated the acquired entity’s future performance using financial projections developed by management for the acquired entity and market participant assumptions that were derived for revenue growth and/or profitability. We estimated future payments using the earnout formula and performance targets specified in each purchase agreement and the financial projections just described. The risk associated with the financial projections was evaluated using a Monte Carlo simulation analysis, pursuant to which the projections were discounted to present value using a discount rate that takes into consideration market-based rates of return, and then simulated to reflect the ability of the acquired entity to achieve the earnout targets. Such calculated earnout payments were further discounted at our estimated cost of debt, to account for counterparty risk. We note that changes in financial projections, market participant assumptions for revenue growth and/or profitability, or market risk factors, would result under ASU 2017-04, an entity should perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparingin a change in the fair value of a reporting unitrecorded earnout obligations.

REVENUE RECOGNITION:

The majority of our revenue is from contracts with customers for the sale of boats, motors, and trailers. We recognize revenue from boat, motor, and trailer sales upon transfer of control of the boat, motor, or trailer to the customer, which is generally upon acceptance of the boat, motor, and partstrailer by the customer and service operationsthe satisfaction of our performance obligations. The transaction price is determined with the customer at the time of sale. Customers may trade in a used boat to apply toward the purchase of a new or used boat. The trade-in is a type of noncash consideration measured at fair value, based on external and internal observable and unobservable market data and applied as payment to the contract price for the purchased boat. At the time of acceptance, the customer is able to direct the use of, and obtain substantially all of, the benefits of the boat, motor, trailer, or part is delivered to or accepted by the customer or the service is completed.  We recognize deferred revenue from service operations and slip and storage services on a straight-line basis over the term of the contract as services are completed.trailer. We recognize commissions earned from a brokerage sale at the timewhen the related brokerage transaction closes.  We recognize income from the rentalscloses upon transfer of chartering power and sailing yachts on a straight-line basis over the termcontrol of the contract as services are completed.boat, motor, or trailer to the customer, which is generally upon acceptance by the customer.

We do not directly finance our customers’ boat, motor, or trailer purchases. In many cases, we assist with third-party financing for boat, motor, and trailer sales. We recognize commissions earned by us for placing notes with financial institutions in connection with customer boat financing when we recognize the related boat sales. Pursuant to negotiated agreements with financial institutions, we are charged back for a portion of these fees should the customer terminate or default on the related finance contract before it is outstanding for a stipulated minimum period of time. We base the chargeback allowance, which was not material to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements taken as a whole as of June 30, 2023, on our experience with repayments or defaults on the related finance contracts. We recognize variable consideration from commissions earned on extended warranty service contracts sold on behalf of third-party insurance companies at generally the later of customer acceptance of the service contract terms as evidenced by contract execution or recognition of the related boat sale. We also recognize marketing fees earned on credit, life, accident, disability, gap, and hull insurance products sold byon behalf of third-party insurance companies at the later of customer acceptance of the insurance product as evidenced by contract execution or when the related boat sale is recognized.  Pursuant

We recognize revenue from parts and service operations (boat maintenance and repairs) over time as services are performed. Each boat maintenance and repair service is a single performance obligation that includes both the parts and labor associated with the service. Payment for boat maintenance and repairs is typically due upon the completion of the service, which is generally completed within a short period of time from contract inception. We satisfy our performance obligations, transfer control, and recognize revenue over time for parts and service operations because we are creating a contract asset with no alternative use and we have an enforceable right to negotiatedpayment for performance completed to date. Contract assets primarily relate to our right to consideration for work in process not yet billed at the reporting date associated with maintenance and repair services. We use an input method to recognize revenue and measure progress based on labor hours expended to satisfy the performance obligation at average labor rates. We have determined labor hours expended to be the relevant measure of work performed to complete the maintenance and repair service for the customer. As a practical expedient, because repair and maintenance service contracts have an original duration of one year or less, we do not consider the time value of money, and we do not disclose estimated revenue expected to be recognized in the future for performance obligations that are unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) at the end of the reporting period or when we expect to recognize such revenue. Contract assets, recorded in prepaid expenses and other current assets, totaled approximately $5.9 million and$7.0 million as of September 30, 2022 and June 30, 2023, respectively.

We recognize revenue from the sale of our manufactured boats and yachts when control of the boat or yacht is transferred to the dealer or customer, which is generally upon acceptance by the dealer or customer. At the time of acceptance, the dealer or customer is able to direct the use of, and obtain substantially all of the benefits of, the boat or yacht. We have elected to record shipping and handling activities that occur after the dealer or customer has obtained control of the boat or yacht as a fulfillment activity.

We recognize lessor common area charges, utility sales, food and beverage sales and other ancillary goods and services. Performance obligations include performing common area maintenance and providing utilities, food and beverages, and other ancillary goods and services when goods are transferred or services are performed. Payment terms typically align with when the goods and services are provided.

Contract liabilities primarily consist of customer deposits. We recognize contract liabilities as revenue at the time of acceptance and the transfer of control to the customers.

We recognize revenue from service operations and slip and storage services over time on a straight-line basis over the term of the contract as our performance obligations are met. We recognize revenue from the rentals of chartering power yachts over time on a straight-line basis over the term of the contract as our performance obligations are met.

LEASES:

Lessee

Substantially all of the leases that we enter into are real estate leases. We lease numerous facilities relating to our operations, including showrooms, display lots, marinas, service facilities, slips, offices, equipment and our corporate headquarters. Leases for real property have terms, including renewal options, ranging from one to in excess of twenty-five years. In addition, we lease certain charter boats for our yacht charter business. As of June 30, 2023, the weighted-average remaining lease term for our leases was approximately 22 years. All of our leases are classified as operating leases, which are included as right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and operating lease liabilities in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. For the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2023,

14


operating lease expenses recorded in selling, general, and administrative expenses were approximately $6.0 million and $8.2 million, respectively. For the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2023, operating lease expenses recorded in selling, general, and administrative expenses were approximately $17.6 million and $22.5 million, respectively. Our lease agreements with financialdo not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. We do not have any significant leases that have not yet commenced but that create significant rights and obligations for us. We have elected the practical expedient under ASC Topic 842 to not separate lease and nonlease components.

Our real estate and equipment leases often require that we pay maintenance in addition to rent. Additionally, our real estate leases generally require payment of real estate taxes and insurance. Maintenance, real estate taxes, and insurance institutions, wepayments are charged back forgenerally variable and based on actual costs incurred by the lessor. Therefore, these amounts are not included in the consideration of the contract when determining the ROU asset and lease liability but are reflected as variable lease expenses.

Substantially all of our lease agreements include fixed rental payments. Certain of our lease agreements include fixed rental payments that are adjusted periodically by a portionfixed rate or changes in an index. The fixed payments, including the effects of these fees shouldchanges in the customer terminatefixed rate or default onamount, and renewal options reasonably certain to be exercised, are included in the measurement of the related financelease liability. Most of our real estate leases include one or insurance contract beforemore options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term from one to five years or more. The exercise of lease renewal options is at our sole discretion. If it is outstandingreasonably certain that we will exercise such options, the periods covered by such options are included in the lease term and are recognized as part of our right of use assets and lease liabilities. The depreciable life of assets and leasehold improvements are limited by the expected lease term, which includes renewal options reasonably certain to be exercised.

For our incremental borrowing rate, we generally use a portfolio approach to determine the discount rate for leases with similar characteristics. We determine discount rates based upon our hypothetical credit rating, taking into consideration our short-term borrowing rates, and then adjusting as necessary for the appropriate lease term. As of June 30, 2023, the weighted-average discount rate used was approximately 6.4%.

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS:

We account for acquisitions in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification 360-10-40, “Property, Plant, and Equipment - Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”ASC 805, “Business Combinations” (“ASC 360-10-40”805”), requires that long-livedand goodwill in accordance with ASC 350, “Intangibles — Goodwill and Other” (“ASC 350”). For business combinations, the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of net assets suchacquired in a business combination is recorded as propertygoodwill.

In June 2023, we acquired C&C Boat Works, a full-service boat dealer in Crosslake, Minnesota.

In January 2023, we acquired Boatzon, a boat and equipment andmarine digital retail platform, through our recently formed technology entity, New Wave Innovations.

In December 2022, we acquired Midcoast Marine Group, a leading full-service marine construction Company based on Central Florida's Gulf Coast.

In October 2022, we purchased intangiblesall of the outstanding equity of IGY Marinas for an aggregate purchase price of $480,000,000, subject to amortization,certain customary closing and post-closing adjustments, and net working capital adjustments including certain holdbacks. In addition, the former equity owners of IGY Marinas (“IGY Sellers”) have the opportunity to earn additional consideration as part of a contingent consideration arrangement subject to the achievement of certain performance metrics. The maximum amount of consideration that can be reviewedpaid under the contingent consideration arrangement is $100.0 million. The fair value of $67.7 million of the contingent

consideration arrangement was estimated with the assistance of a third-party valuation expert by applying an income valuation approach and is included in other long-term liabilities. The earnout was estimated based on certain performance metrics as a base scenario (among other assumptions) subject to a Monte Carlo simulation. The IGY Sellers are subject to certain customary post-closing covenants and indemnities. The acquisition of IGY Marinas expands the Company’s marina footprint and superyacht services offerings and strengthens its position as the global leader in superyacht and luxury marina destinations in the United States of America, the Caribbean, Mexico and Europe.

The following table summarizes the consideration paid for IGY Marinas and the preliminary allocation of the purchase consideration to the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date.

The fair value of current assets acquired includes accounts receivable and other current assets of approximately $4.5 million and $4.1 million, respectively. The fair value of current liabilities assumed includes contract liabilities of approximately $13.3 million, tax contingency reserves of approximately $8.0 million and accrued expenses of approximately $6.6 million. We recorded approximately $295.4 million in goodwill and approximately $30.4 million of other identifiable intangibles, composed of indefinite-lived trade names and customer relationships, in connection with the IGY Marinas acquisition, however, purchase price allocations are preliminary pending receipt of final valuation analyses of certain assets from our valuation advisor. The goodwill represents the assembled workforce, our enhanced geographic reach, and global brand infrastructure. Goodwill of approximately $138.1 million is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. As of the acquisition date, the customer relationships have a weighted average useful life of approximately 4.5 years. For the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2023, IGY Marinas revenue was approximately $78.3 and $91.1 million, respectively. For the nine months ended June 30, 2022 loss before taxes was approximately $1.0 million. For the nine months ended June 30, 2023 income before taxes was approximately $17.0 million. Income before taxes does not include parent level corporate costs. The determination of fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed requires estimates and assumption that can change as a result of new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. As such, the Company will make any necessary adjustments to goodwill in the period identified within one year of the acquisition date. Adjustments outside of that range are recognized currently in earnings. Through one of the subsidiaries that it acquired in the IGY Marinas acquisition, the Company has an investment in certain entities that own a marina asset in Cannes, France, which is accounted for under the equity method, as well as a series of notes receivable due from these entities, with a total balance of approximately $6.4 million as of June 30, 2023.

In April 2022, through Northrop & Johnson, we acquired Superyacht Management, S.A.R.L., better known as SYM, a superyacht management company based in Golfe-Juan, France.

In November 2021, we completed acquisitions for Intrepid, a premier manufacturer of powerboats, and Texas MasterCraft, a watersports dealer in Northern Texas, for aggregate consideration of approximately $67.2 million (net of cash acquired of $9.4 million), including estimated contingent consideration of $6.0 million. Tangible assets acquired, net of liabilities assumed and cash acquired, totaled approximately $20.3 million; intangible assets acquired totaled $7.3 million; and total goodwill recognized was approximately $39.6 million. The goodwill represents the assembled workforce, acquired capabilities, and future economic benefits resulting from the acquisitions. Approximately $10.7 million of goodwill related to the acquisitions, wholly attributable to Texas MasterCraft, is deductible for tax purposes.

In July 2021, we purchased Nisswa Marine a full-service dealer located in Nisswa, Minnesota. In May 2021, we purchased Cruisers Yachts, a manufacturer of sport yacht and yachts with sales through our select retail dealership locations and through independent dealers. In October 2020, we purchased SkipperBud’s, one of the largest boat sales, brokerage, service and marina/storage groups in the United States.

In total, current and previous acquisitions have resulted in the recording of $246.5 million and $603.2 million in goodwill and other intangible assets as of September 30, 2022 and June 30, 2023, respectively. In accordance with ASC 350, we test goodwill for impairment at least annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an assetvalue may not be recoverable. Recoverability ofOur annual impairment test is performed during the asset is measured by comparison of its carrying amount to undiscounted future net cash flows the asset is expected to generate.third fiscal quarter. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asseta reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds its fair market value. Estimates of expected future cash flows represent our best estimate based on currently available information and reasonable and supportable assumptions. Anyvalue we recognize an impairment recognizedloss in accordance with ASC 360-10-40 is permanent350. As of June 30, 2023, and may not be restored. The analysis is performed at a regional level for indicators of permanent impairment given the geographical interdependencies among our locations.

INCOME TAXES:

INCOME TAXES:

We account for income taxes in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards CodificationASC 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). Under ASC 740, we recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. We measure deferred tax assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which we expect those temporary differences to be recovered or settled. We record valuation allowances to reduce our deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized by considering all available positive and negative evidence.  As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2017, we had a valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets of $246,000 and $299,000, respectively.

During the three months ended December 31, 2016June 30, 2022 and 20172023, we recognized an income tax provision of $1.8$24.1 million and $2.2$15.5 million, respectively. During the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2023, we recognized an income tax provision of $52.4 and $34.7 million, respectively. The effective income tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2016June 30, 2022 and 20172023 was 40.9%25.6% and 34.8%25.9%, respectively. Due to the passage of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act legislation in December 2017 which lowered the federal corporaterespectively. The effective income tax rate from 35% to 21% (among other changes), our deferred tax assets were re-measured as of December 31, 2017 resulting in an approximately $889,000 reduction in our beginning deferred tax assets and corresponding increase in our income tax provision for the threenine months ended December 31, 2017. The final impact of the Tax CutsJune 30, 2022 and Jobs Act legislation may differ due to, among other things, changes in interpretations, our assumptions used, issuance of additional guidance,2023 was 24.7% and actions26.9%, respectively.

SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS AND LONG-TERM DEBT:

Short-term Borrowings

In August 2022, we may take as a result of the new legislation.

SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS:

In May 2017, we amended and restated our Inventory Financing Agreement (the “Amended Credit Facility”), originally entered into in June 2010,a Credit Agreement with Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company (“M&T Bank”) as subsequently amended, withAdministrative Agent, Swingline Lender, and Issuing Bank, Wells Fargo Commercial Distribution Finance, LLC, (formerly GE Commercial Distribution Finance Corporation)as Floor Plan Agent, and the lenders party thereto (the “New Credit Agreement”). The May 2017 amendment and restatement extendedNew Credit Agreement provides the maturity dateCompany short-term borrowing in the form of the Credit Facility to October 2020, and the Amended Credit Facility includes two additional one-year extension periods,a line of credit with lender approval. The May 2017 amendment and restatement, among other things, modified the amount ofasset-based borrowing availability and maturity date of the Credit Facility. The Amended Credit Facility provides a floor plan financing commitment(Floor Plan) of up to $350.0$750 million an increase fromand establishes a revolving credit facility in the previous limitmaximum amount of $300.0$100 million subject(including a $20 million swingline facility and a $20 million letter of credit sublimit). The New Credit Agreement also provides long-term debt in the form of a delayed draw term loan facility to borrowingfinance the acquisition of IGY Marinas in the maximum amount of $400 million, and a $100 million delayed draw mortgage loan facility. The maturity of each of the facilities is August 2027.

18


The interest rate is (a) for amounts outstanding under the Floor Plan, 3.45% above the one month secured term rate as administered by the CME Group Benchmark Administration Limited (CBA) (“SOFR”), (b) for amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility or the term loan facility, a range of 1.50% to 2.0%, depending on the total net leverage ratio, above the one month, three month, or six month term SOFR rate, and (c) for amounts outstanding under the mortgage loan facility, 2.20% above the one month, three month, or six month term SOFR rate. The alternate base availability resulting fromrate with a margin is available for amounts outstanding under the amountrevolving credit, term, and aging of our inventory.mortgage loan facilities and the Euro Interbank Offered Rate plus a margin is available for borrowings in Euro or other currencies other than dollars under the revolving credit facility.

The AmendedNew Credit FacilityAgreement has certain financial covenants as specified in the agreement. The covenants include provisions that our leverage ratio must not exceed 2.753.35 to 1.0 and that our currentconsolidated fixed charge coverage ratio must be greater than 1.21.10 to 1.0. As of June 30, 2023, we were in compliance with all covenants under the New Credit Agreement. The New Credit Agreement is secured by the Company’s personal property assets, including inventory and related accounts receivable. The mortgage loans will also be secured by the real estate pledged as collateral for such loans.

In May 2020, we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Credit Facility”), with Wells Fargo Commercial Distribution Finance LLC, M&T Bank, Bank of the West, and Truist Bank. In July 2021, we amended the Credit Facility to increase the borrowing availability to $500 million, extend the term to expire by one year to July 2024, with two one-year options to renew, subject to lender approval, and modify certain provisions to provide additional liquidity to the Company. The Credit Facility provided the Company a line of credit with asset-based borrowing availability of up to $500 million for working capital and inventory financing, with the amount permissible pursuant to a borrowing base formula. The Credit Facility was set to expire in July 2024, subject to extension for two one-year periods, with lender approval. The Credit Facility was replaced by the New Credit Agreement.

As of June 30, 2023, our indebtedness associated with financing our inventory and working capital needs totaled approximately $515.6 million. As of June 30, 2023, our short-term borrowings, which solely consisted of the Floor Plan, included unamortized debt issuance costs of approximately $1.6 million. As of June 30, 2022, our indebtedness associated with financing our inventory and working capital needs totaled approximately $107.5 million and included unamortized debt issuance costs of approximately $0.3 million.

As of June 30, 2022 and 2023, the interest rate on the outstanding short-term borrowings, which solely consisted of the Floor Plan, was approximately 4.2% and 6.7% respectively. As of June 30, 2023, our additional available borrowings under our New Credit Agreement were approximately $10.5 million based upon the outstanding borrowing base availability. As of June 30, 2023, no amounts were withdrawn on the revolving credit facility or the delayed draw mortgage loan facility.

As is common in our industry, we receive interest assistance directly from boat manufacturers, including Brunswick. The interest assistance programs vary by manufacturer, but generally include periods of free financing or reduced interest rate programs. The interest assistance may be paid directly to us or our lender depending on the arrangements the manufacturer has established. We classify interest assistance received from manufacturers as a reduction of inventory cost and related cost of sales.

The availability and costs of borrowed funds can adversely affect our ability to obtain adequate boat inventory and the holding costs of that inventory as well as the ability and willingness of our customers to finance boat purchases. However, we rely on our New Credit Agreement to purchase our inventory of boats. The aging of our inventory limits our borrowing capacity as defined curtailments reduce the allowable advance rate as our inventory ages. Our access to funds under our New Credit Agreement also depends upon the ability of our lenders to meet their funding commitments, particularly if they experience shortages of capital, experience excessive volumes of borrowing requests from others during a short period of time or otherwise experience liquidity issues of their own as other lending institutions have recently experienced. Unfavorable economic conditions, weak consumer spending, turmoil in the credit markets, and lender difficulties, among other potential reasons, could interfere with our ability to utilize our New Credit Agreement to fund our operations. Any inability to utilize our New Credit Agreement could require us to seek other sources of funding to repay amounts outstanding under the credit agreements or replace or supplement our credit agreements, which may not be possible at all or under commercially reasonable terms.

Similarly, decreases in the availability of credit and increases in the cost of credit adversely affect the ability of our customers to purchase boats from us and thereby adversely affect our ability to sell our products and impact the profitability of our finance and insurance activities.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION:

We account for our stock-based compensation plans following the provisions of FASB ASC 718, “Compensation — Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). In accordance with ASC 718, we use the Black-Scholes valuation model for valuing all options granted (Note 13) and shares purchased under our Amended 2008 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“Stock Purchase Plan”). We measure compensation for restricted stock awards and restricted stock units (Note 14) at fair value on the grant date based on the number of shares expected to vest and the quoted market price of our common stock. We recognize compensation cost for all awards in operations on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for each separately vesting portion of the award.

During the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2023, we recognized stock-based compensation expense of approximately $3.9 million and $5.5 million,respectively, and for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2023, we recognized stock-based compensation expense of approximately $11.1 million and $15.7 million, respectively, in selling, general, and administrative expenses in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Cash received from option exercises under all share-based compensation arrangements for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2023, was approximately $1.0 million and $1.1 million, respectively. Cash received from option exercises or the Stock Purchase Plan under all share-based compensation arrangements for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2023, was approximately $2.1 million and $2.4 million, respectively. We currently expect to satisfy share-based awards with registered shares available to be issued from the Stock Purchase Plan.

12.
THE INCENTIVE STOCK PLANS:

In February 2023, our shareholders approved a proposal to amend our 2021 Plan, to increase the total number of available shares by 1,300,000. In February 2022, our shareholders approved a proposal to authorize our 2021 Stock-Based Compensation Plan (“2021 Plan”), which replaced our 2011 Stock-Based Compensation Plan (“2011 Plan”). Our 2021 Plan provides for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, stock units, bonus stock, dividend equivalents, other stock related awards, and performance awards (collectively “awards”), that may be settled in cash, stock, or other property. Our 2021 Plan is designed to attract, motivate, retain, and reward our executives, employees, officers, directors, and independent contractors by providing such persons with annual

20


and long-term performance incentives to expend their maximum efforts in the creation of shareholder value. The total number of shares of our common stock that may be subject to awards under the 2021 Plan is equal to 2,300,000 shares, plus: (i) any shares available for issuance and not subject to an award under the 2007 Plan or the 2011 Plan, which was 545,729 in aggregate at the time of the approval of the 2021 Plan; (ii) the number of shares with respect to which awards granted under the 2021 Plan, the 2011 Plan or the 2007 Plan terminate without the issuance of the shares or where the shares are forfeited or repurchased; (iii) with respect to awards granted under the 2021 Plan, the 2011 Plan and the 2007 Plan, the number of shares that are not issued as a result of the award being settled for cash or otherwise not issued in connection with the exercise or payment of the award; and (iv) the number of shares that are surrendered or withheld in payment of the exercise price of any award or any tax withholding requirements in connection with any award granted under the 2021 Plan, the 2011 Plan or the 2007 Plan. The 2021 Plan terminates in February 2032, and awards may be granted at any time during the life of the 2021 Plan. The dates on which awards vest are determined by the Board of Directors or the Plan Administrator. The Board of Directors has appointed the Compensation Committee as the Plan Administrator. The exercise prices of options are determined by the Board of Directors or the Plan Administrator and are at least equal to the fair market value of shares of common stock on the date of grant. The term of options under the 2021 Plan may not exceed ten years. The options granted have varying vesting periods. To date, we have not settled or been under any obligation to settle any awards in cash.

During the nine months ended June 30, 2023, 5,000 options were granted. No options were granted for the nine months ended June 30, 2022. The weighted average grant date fair value of options granted during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2023 was $15.53. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2023, was $1.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively.

We used the Black-Scholes model to estimate the fair value of options granted. The expected term of options granted is estimated based on historical experience. Volatility is based on the historical volatility of our common stock. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual term of the options is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

13.
EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN:

In February 2019, our shareholders approved a proposal to amend our Stock Purchase Plan to increase the number of shares available under that plan by 500,000 shares. The Stock Purchase Plan as amended provides for up to 1,500,000 shares of common stock to be available for purchase by our regular employees who have completed at least one year of continuous service. In addition, there were 52,837 shares of common stock available under our 1998 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, which have been made available for issuance under our Stock Purchase Plan. The Stock Purchase Plan provides for implementation of annual offerings beginning on the first day of October in each of the years 2008 through 2027, with each offering terminating on September 30 of the following year. Each annual offering may be divided into two six-month offerings. For each offering, the purchase price per share will be the lower of: (i) 85% of the closing price of the common stock on the first day of the offering or (ii) 85% of the closing price of the common stock on the last day of the offering. The purchase price is paid through periodic payroll deductions not to exceed 10% of the participant’s earnings during each offering period. However, no participant may purchase more than $25,000 worth of common stock annually.

We used the Black-Scholes model to estimate the fair value of options granted to purchase shares issued pursuant to the Stock Purchase Plan. Volatility is based on the historical volatility of our common stock. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual term of the options is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

RESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS:

We have granted non-vested (restricted) stock awards (“restricted stock”) and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to employees, directors, and officers pursuant to the 2021 Plan, the 2011 Plan, and the 2007 Plan. The restricted stock awards and RSUs have varying vesting periods, but generally become fully vested between two and four years after the grant date, depending on the specific award, performance targets met for performance-based awards granted to officers, and vesting period for time-based awards. Officer performance-based awards are granted at the target amount of shares that may be earned and the actual amount of the award earned generally could range from 0% to 175% of the target number of shares based on the actual specified performance target met. We accounted for the restricted stock awards granted using the measurement and recognition provisions of ASC 718. Accordingly, the fair value of the restricted stock awards, including performance-based awards, is measured on the grant date and recognized in earnings over the requisite service period for each separately vesting portion of the award.

For the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2023, there were 71,455 and 12,639 weighted average shares of options and non-vested restricted stock outstanding, respectively, that were not included in the computation of diluted net income per share because the options’ exercise prices or non-vested restricted stock prices were greater than the average market price of our common stock, and therefore, their effect would be anti-dilutive.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

We are party to various legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. While it is not feasible to determine the actual outcome of these actions as of June 30, 2023, we believe that these matters should not have a material adverse effect on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

17.
SEGMENT INFORMATION:

Change in Reportable Segments

Effective May 2, 2021, our operating segments changed as a result of the Company’s acquisition of Cruisers Yachts, which changed management’s reporting structure and operating activities. We report our operations through two operating segments, which are also reporting segments: Retail Operations and Product Manufacturing.

Reportable Segments

The Company’s operating segments are defined by management’s reporting structure and operating activities. Our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is our Chief Executive Officer. Our CODM reviews operational income statement information by segment for purposes of making operating decisions, assessing financial performance, and allocating resources. The CODM is not provided asset information by segment. The Company’s reportable segments are the following:

Retail Operations. The Retail Operations segment includes the sale of new and used recreational boats, including pleasure and fishing boats, with a focus on premium brands in each segment. We also sell related marine products, including engines, trailers, parts, and accessories. In addition, we provide repair, maintenance, and slip and storage services; we arrange related boat financing, insurance, and extended service contracts; we offer boat and yacht brokerage sales; and we offer yacht charter services. In the British Virgin Islands we offer the charter of catamarans, through MarineMax Vacations. Fraser Yachts Group and Northrop & Johnson, leading superyacht brokerage and luxury yacht services companies with operations in multiple countries, are also included in this segment. We also maintain a network of strategically positioned luxury marinas situated in yachting and sport fishing destinations around the word through IGY Marinas. The Retail Operations segment includes the majority of all corporate costs.

Product Manufacturing. The Product Manufacturing segment includes activity of Cruisers Yachts and Intrepid. Cruisers Yachts, a wholly-owned MarineMax subsidiary, manufacturing sport yacht and yachts with sales through our select retail dealership locations and through independent dealers. Cruisers Yachts is recognized as one of the world’s premier manufacturers of premium sport yacht and yachts, producing models from 33’ to 60’ feet. Intrepid, also a wholly-owned MarineMax subsidiary, is recognized as a world class producer of customized boats, carefully reflecting the unique desires of each individual owner. Intrepid follows a direct-to-consumer distribution model and has received many awards and accolades for its innovations and high-quality craftsmanship that create industry leading products in their categories.

Intersegment revenue represents yachts that were manufactured in our Product Manufacturing segment and were sold to our Retail Operations segment. The Product Manufacturing segment supplies our Retail Operations segment along with various independent dealers.

Amended Credit Facility

On July 12, 2023, the Company executed the Amended Credit Facility to amend its existing Credit Facility to expand its floor plan facility from $750 million to $950 million as provided by the accordion feature of the New Credit Agreement. The Amended Credit Facility will be used to finance the purchase of new and used boat and yacht inventory. Other than the increased capacity of the floor plan facility, all other terms of the Company’s senior secured credit facilities remain unchanged, including the maturity date of August 2027.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements include statements regarding our “expectations,” “anticipations,” “intentions,” “plans,” “beliefs,” or “strategies” regarding the future. These forward-looking statements include statements relating to market risks such as interest rate risk and foreign currency exchange rate risk; economic and industry conditions and corresponding effects on consumer behavior and operating results; environmental conditions; inclement weather; certain specific and isolated events; our future estimates, assumptions and judgments, including statements regarding whether such estimates, assumptions and judgments could have a material adverse effect on our operating results; the impact of changes in accounting policy and standards; our plans to accelerate our growth through acquisitions and new store openings; our belief that our existing capital resources will be sufficient to finance our operations for at least the next 12 months, except for possible significant acquisitions; the seasonality and cyclicality of our business and the effect of such seasonality and cyclicality on our business, financial results and inventory levels; and the Company’s ability to manage growth effectively. Actual results could differ materially from those currently anticipated as a result of a number of factors, including those set forth under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022.

General

We believe we are the largest recreational boat and yacht retailer and superyacht services company in the world. Through our current 78 retail locations in 21 states, we sell new and used recreational boats and related marine products, including engines, trailers, parts, and accessories. We also arrange related boat financing, insurance, and extended service contracts; provide boat repair and maintenance services; offer yacht and boat brokerage sales; and, where available, offer slip and storage accommodations. In the British Virgin Islands we offer the charter of catamarans, through MarineMax Vacations. We also own Fraser Yachts Group, a leading superyacht brokerage and luxury yacht services company with operations in multiple countries, Northrop & Johnson, another leading superyacht brokerage and services company with operations in multiple countries, SkipperBud’s, one of the largest boat sales, brokerage, service and marina/storage groups in the United States, and Cruisers Yachts, a manufacturer of sport yacht and yachts with sales through our select retail dealership locations and through independent dealers. In November 2021, we acquired Intrepid Powerboats, a

24


manufacturer of powerboats, and Texas MasterCraft, a watersports dealer in Northern Texas. In April 2022, through Northrop & Johnson, we acquired Superyacht Management, S.A.R.L., better known as SYM, a superyacht management company based in Golfe-Juan, France. In August 2022, we expanded our presence in Texas by acquiring Endeavour Marina in Seabrook. In October 2022, we completed the acquisition of IGY Marinas. In December 2022, we acquired Midcoast Marine Group, a leading full-service marine construction company based on Central Florida’s Gulf Coast. In January 2023, we acquired Boatzon, a boat and marine digital retail platform, through our recently formed technology entity, New Wave Innovations. In June 2023, we acquired C&C Boat Works, a full-service boat dealer in Crosslake, Minnesota.

MarineMax was incorporated in January 1998. We commenced operations with the acquisition of five independent recreational boat dealers on March 1, 1998. Since the initial acquisitions in March 1998, we have acquired 33 recreational boat dealers, five boat brokerage operations, two full-service yacht repair operations, and two boat and yacht manufacturers. As a part of our acquisition strategy, we frequently engage in discussions with various recreational boat dealers regarding their potential acquisition by us. Potential acquisition discussions frequently take place over a long period of time and involve difficult business integration and other issues, including, in some cases, management succession and related matters. As a result of these and other factors, a number of potential acquisitions that from time to time appear likely to occur do not result in binding legal agreements and are not consummated. We completed four acquisitions in the fiscal year ending September 30, 2022, and four acquisitions to date in fiscal 2023.

General economic conditions and consumer spending patterns can negatively impact our operating results. Unfavorable local, regional, national or global economic developments or uncertainties regarding future economic prospects could reduce consumer spending in the markets we serve and adversely affect our business. Economic conditions in areas in which we operate dealerships, particularly Florida in which we generated approximately 54%, 50%, and 51% of our dealership revenue during fiscal 2020, 2021, and 2022, respectively, can have a major impact on our operations. Local influences, such as corporate downsizing, military base closings, inclement weather such as Hurricanes Harvey and Irma in 2017 and Hurricane Ian in 2022, environmental conditions, and specific events, such as the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010, also could adversely affect, and in certain instances have adversely affected, our operations in certain markets.

In an economic downturn, consumer discretionary spending levels generally decline, at times resulting in disproportionately large reductions in the sale of luxury goods. Consumer spending on luxury goods also may decline as a result of lower consumer confidence levels, even if prevailing economic conditions are favorable. Additionally, the Federal Reserve’s increases of its benchmark interest rate, along with potential future increases and/or market expectations of such increases, have resulted in, and may further result in significantly higher long-term interest rates and a downturn in the overall economy, each of which may negatively impact our customers’ willingness or desire to purchase our products. As a result, an economic downturn or inflation could impact us more than certain of our competitors due to our strategic focus on a higher end of our market. Although we have expanded our operations during periods of stagnant or modestly declining industry trends, the cyclical nature of the recreational boating industry or the lack of industry growth may adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Any period of adverse economic conditions, low consumer confidence or inflation is likely to have a negative effect on our business.

Historically, in periods of lower consumer spending and depressed economic conditions, we have, among other things, substantially reduced our acquisition program, delayed new store openings, reduced our inventory purchases, engaged in inventory reduction efforts, closed a number of our retail locations, reduced our headcount, and amended and replaced our credit facility.

Although past economic conditions have adversely affected our operating results, we believe during and after such conditions we have capitalized on our core strengths to substantially outperform the industry, resulting in market share gains. Our ability to capture such market share supports the alignment of our retailing strategies with the desires of consumers. We believe the steps we have taken to address weak market conditions in the past have yielded, and we believe are likely to yield in the future, an increase in revenue. Acquisitions remain an important strategy for us, and, subject to a number of conditions, including macro-economic conditions and finding attractive acquisition targets, we plan to explore opportunities through this strategy. We expect our core strengths and retailing strategies including our digital platform, will position us to capitalize on growth opportunities as they occur and will allow us to emerge with greater earnings potential.

Effective May 2, 2021, our reportable segments changed as a result of the Company’s acquisition of Cruisers Yachts, which changed management’s reporting structure and operating activities. We report our operations through two reportable segments: Retail Operations and Product Manufacturing. See Note 17 of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

As of June 30, 2023, the Retail Operations segment includes the activity of 78 retail locations in Alabama, California, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Texas, Washington and Wisconsin, where we sell new and used recreational boats, including pleasure and fishing boats, with a focus on premium brands in each segment. We also sell related marine products, including engines, trailers, parts, and accessories. In addition, we provide repair, maintenance, and slip and storage services; we arrange related boat financing, insurance, and extended service contracts; and we offer boat and yacht brokerage sales, and yacht charter services. In the British Virgin Islands, we offer the charter of catamarans, through MarineMax Vacations. Fraser Yachts Group and Northrop & Johnson, leading superyacht brokerage and luxury yacht services companies with operations in multiple countries, are also included in this

25


segment. We also maintain a network of luxury marinas situated in yachting and sport fishing destinations around the word through IGY Marinas.

As of June 30, 2023, the Product Manufacturing segment includes activity of Cruisers Yachts and Intrepid Powerboats. Cruisers Yachts, a wholly-owned MarineMax subsidiary, manufacturing sport yacht and yachts with sales through our select retail dealership locations and through independent dealers. Cruisers Yachts is recognized as one of the world’s premier manufacturers of premium sport yacht and yachts, producing models from 33’ to 60’ feet. Intrepid Powerboats, also a wholly-owned MarineMax subsidiary, is a producer of customized boats. Intrepid Powerboats follows a direct-to-consumer distribution model and has received many awards and accolades for its innovations and high-quality craftsmanship that create industry leading products in their categories.

Consolidated Results of Operations

The following discussion compares the three and nine months ended June 30, 2023, with the three and nine months ended June 30, 2022 and should be read in conjunction with the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, including the related notes thereto, appearing elsewhere in this report.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2023 Compared with Three Months Ended June 30, 2022

Revenue. Revenue increased $33.3 million, or 4.8%, to $721.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, from $688.5 million for three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase is due to a $2.9 million or 0.4% increase in comparable-store sales, in addition to a $30.4 million increase from acquired operations, primarily IGY Marinas, that are not eligible for inclusion in the comparable-store base as well as Intrepid & Cruisers manufacturing revenue which are not included in comparable retail store sales. The comparable-store increase came primarily from increases in new boat revenue, used boat revenue, marina revenue, service revenue, and super yachts group revenue due to improved retail conditions in the quarter.

Gross Profit. Gross profit increased $7.3 million, or 3.1%, to $243.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, from $236.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue decreased to 33.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2023, from 34.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease in gross profit as a percentage of revenue was primarily the result of lower new and used boat margins, partially offset by the acquisition of IGY Marinas, a higher margin business.

Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased $28.0 million, or 19.8% to $169.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, from $141.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in selling, general, and administrative expenses was primarily the result of the acquisition of IGY Marinas.

Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $13.8 million to $14.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, from $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in interest expense was primarily the result of increased interest rates, increased inventory and increases in long-term debt related to the IGY Marinas acquisition, and increased borrowings from increased inventory.

Income Taxes. Income tax expense decreased $8.6 million, or 35.7%, to $15.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, from $24.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The effective income tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2023 was 25.6% and 25.9%, respectively. The increase in the effective income tax rate was primarily as a result of reduced taxable income which increases the impact of permanent tax differences, as well as IGY Marinas’ foreign operations acquired and increases in state tax rates.

Nine Months Ended June 30, 2023 Compared with Nine Months Ended June 30, 2022

Revenue. Revenue increased $29.0 million, or 1.6%, to $1.800 billion for the nine months ended June 30, 2023, from $1.771 billion for nine months ended June 30, 2022. The increase is due to a $107.8 million increase from acquisitions that are not eligible for inclusion in the comparable-store base, as well as changes in revenue for Intrepid & Cruisers manufacturing revenue which are not

26


included in comparable retail store sales, partially offset by a $78.8 million or 4.7% decrease in comparable-store sales. The comparable-store decrease was primarily driven by decreases in new boat revenue, used boat revenue, brokerage revenue, and super yachts group revenue, due to softer demand through the first six months of the fiscal year, more seasonal sales trends, and macroeconomic uncertainty.

Gross Profit. Gross profit increased $22.6 million, or 3.7%, to $631.6 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2023, from $609.0 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2022. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue increased to 35.1% for the nine months ended June 30, 2023, from 34.4% for the nine months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of revenue was primarily the result of the acquisition of IGY Marinas, a higher margin business.

Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased $70.4 million, or 17.8% to $465.1 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2023, from $394.7 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in selling, general, and administrative expenses was primarily the result of the acquisition of IGY Marinas.

Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $35.3 million to $37.6 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2023, from $2.3 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in interest expense was primarily the result of increased interest rates, increases in long-term debt related to the IGY Marinas acquisition, and increased borrowings from increased inventory.

Income Taxes. Income tax expense decreased $17.7 million, or 33.8%, to $34.7 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2023, from $52.4 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2022. The effective income tax rate for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2023 was 24.7% and 26.9%, respectively. The increase in the effective income tax rate was primarily as a result of reduced taxable income which increases the impact of permanent tax differences, as well as IGY Marinas’ foreign operations acquired and increases in state tax rates.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our cash needs are primarily for working capital to support operations, including new and used boat and related parts inventories, off-season liquidity, and growth through acquisitions. Acquisitions remain an important strategy for us, and we plan to continue our growth through this strategy in appropriate circumstances. We cannot predict the length of economic or financial conditions. We regularly monitor the aging of our inventories and current market trends (including supply chain issues) to evaluate our current and future inventory needs. We also use this evaluation in conjunction with our review of our current and expected operating performance and expected business levels to determine the extent of our financing needs.

These cash needs historically have been financed with cash generated from operations and borrowings under the New Credit Agreement (described below). Our ability to utilize the New Credit Agreement to fund operations depends upon the collateral levels and compliance with the covenants of the New Credit Agreement. Any turmoil in the credit markets and weakness in the retail markets may interfere with our ability to remain in compliance with the covenants of the New Credit Agreement and therefore our ability to utilize the New Credit Agreement to fund operations. As of June 30, 2023, we were in compliance with all covenants under the New Credit Agreement. We currently depend upon dividends and other payments from our locations and the New Credit Agreement to fund our current operations and meet our cash needs. As the majority owner of each of our locations, we determine the amounts of such distributions subject to applicable law, and currently, no agreements exist that restrict this flow of funds from our locations.

For the nine months ended June 30, 2023, cash used in operating activities was approximately $196.9 million. For the nine months ended June 30, 2022, cash provided by operating activities was approximately $123.0 million. For the nine months ended June 30, 2023, cash used in operating activities was primarily related to increases in inventory, increases in accounts receivable, partially offset by decreases in customer deposits increases in accrued expenses, and our net income adjusted for non-cash expenses and gains such as depreciation and amortization expense, deferred income tax provision, stock-based compensation expense, and gain on acquisition of previously held equity investment. For the nine months ended June 30, 2022, cash provided by operating activities was primarily related to increases in contract liabilities (customer deposits), increases in accrued expenses and other liabilities, increases in accounts payable, and our net income adjusted for non-cash expenses such as depreciation and amortization expense and stock-based compensation expense, partially offset by increases in inventory (excluding acquired operations) and increases in accounts receivable.

For the nine months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, cash used in investing activities was approximately $564.1. million and $113.2 million, respectively. For the nine months ended June 30, 2023, cash used in investing activities was primarily used for the acquisition of IGY Marinas, and to purchase investments, purchase property and equipment associated with improving existing retail facilities, partially offset by proceeds from insurance settlements and proceeds from investments. For the nine months ended June 30, 2022, cash used in investing activities was primarily used for acquisitions, to purchase property and equipment associated with improving existing retail facilities, to purchase property and equipment from locations formerly leased, and to purchase investments, partially offset by proceeds from investments.

For the nine months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, cash provided by financing activities was approximately $756.8 million and $50.9 million, respectively. For the nine months ended June 30, 2023, cash provided by financing activities was primarily attributable to proceeds from long term debt, net increases in short-term borrowings, which solely consisted of the Floor Plan, and net proceeds from

27


issuance of common stock under incentive compensation and employee purchase plans, partially offset by payments on long-term debt, contingent acquisition consideration payments and payments on tax withholdings for equity awards. For the nine months ended June 30, 2022, cash provided by financing activities was primarily attributable to net increases in short-term borrowings, which solely consisted of the Floor Plan, and net proceeds from issuance of common stock under incentive compensation and employee purchase plans, partially offset by purchase of treasury stock, payments on tax withholdings for equity awards, and contingent acquisition consideration payments.

In August 2022, we entered into a Credit Agreement with Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company as Administrative Agent, Swingline Lender, and Issuing Bank, Wells Fargo Commercial Distribution Finance, LLC, as Floor Plan Agent, and the lenders party thereto (the “New Credit Agreement”). The New Credit Agreement provides the Company a line of credit with asset based borrowing availability (Floor Plan) of up to $750 million and establishes a revolving credit facility in the maximum amount of $100 million (including a $20 million swingline facility and a $20 million letter of credit sublimit), a delayed draw term loan facility to finance the acquisition of IGY Marinas in the maximum amount of $400 million, and a $100 million delayed draw mortgage loan facility. The maturity of each of the facilities is August 2027.

The interest rate is (a) for amounts outstanding under the Amended Credit Facility is 345 basis pointsFloor Plan, 3.45% above the one-month London Inter-Bank Offering Rateone month secured term rate as administered by the CME Group Benchmark Administration Limited (CBA) (“LIBOR”SOFR”). There is an unused line fee, (b) for amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility or the term loan facility, a range of ten basis points1.50% to 2.0%, depending on the unused portion oftotal net leverage ratio, above the Amended Credit Facility.one month, three month, or six month term SOFR rate, and (c) for amounts outstanding under the mortgage loan facility, 2.20% above the one month, three month, or six month term SOFR rate. The alternate base rate with a margin is available for amounts outstanding under the revolving credit, term, and mortgage loan facilities and the Euro Interbank Offered Rate plus a margin is available for borrowings in Euro or other currencies other than dollars under the revolving credit facility.

Advances under the AmendedNew Credit FacilityAgreement are initiated by the acquisition of eligible new and used inventory or are re-advances against eligible new and used inventory that have been partially paid-off. Advances on new inventory will generally mature 1,080 days from the original invoice date. Advances on used inventory will mature 361 days from the date we acquire the used inventory. Each advance is subject to a curtailment schedule, which requires that we pay down the balance of each advance on a periodic basis starting after six months. The curtailment schedule varies based on the type and value of the inventory. The collateral for the AmendedNew Credit FacilityAgreement is all of our personal property with certain limited exceptions.primarily the Company’s inventory that is financed through the New Credit Agreement and related accounts receivable. None of our real estate has been pledged for collateral for the AmendedNew Credit Facility.Agreement.


As of December 31, 2017,June 30, 2023, our indebtedness associated with financing our inventoryshort-term borrowings, which solely consisted of the Floor Plan, and working capital needsour long-term debt totaled approximately $307.7 million. $515.6 million and $433.3 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2016June 30, 2023, short-term borrowings, which solely consisted of the Floor Plan, and 2017, the interest ratelong-term debt recorded on the outstandingUnaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets included unamortized debt issuance costs of approximately $1.6 million and $1.7 million, respectively. Refer to Note 10 of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for disclosure of borrowing availability, interest rates, and terms of our short-term borrowings was approximately 4.0% and 4.7%, respectively. As of December 31, 2017, our additional available borrowings under our Amended Credit Facility were approximately $17.0 million based upon the outstanding borrowing base availability.

As is common in our industry, we receive interest assistance directly from boat manufacturers, including Brunswick. The interest assistance programs vary by manufacturer, but generally include periods of free financing or reduced interest rate programs. The interest assistance may be paid directly to us or our lender depending on the arrangements the manufacturer has established. We classify interest assistance received from manufacturers as a reduction of inventory cost and related cost of sales as opposed to netting the assistance against our interest expense incurred with our lenders.

The availability and costs of borrowed funds can adversely affect our ability to obtain adequate boat inventory and the holding costs of that inventory as well as the ability and willingness of our customers to finance boat purchases. As of December 31, 2017, we had no long-term debt. However, we rely on our Amended Credit Facility to purchase our inventory of boats. The aging of our inventory limits our borrowing capacity as defined curtailments reduce the allowable advance rate as our inventory ages. Our access to funds under our Amended Credit Facility also depends upon the ability of our lenders to meet their funding commitments, particularly if they experience shortages of capital or experience excessive volumes of borrowing requests from others during a short period of time. Unfavorable economic conditions, weak consumer spending, turmoil in the credit markets, and lender difficulties, among other potential reasons, could interfere with our ability to utilize our Amended Credit Facility to fund our operations. Any inability to utilize our Amended Credit Facility could require us to seek other sources of funding to repay amounts outstanding under the credit agreements or replace or supplement our credit agreements, which may not be possible at all or under commercially reasonable terms.

Similarly, decreases in the availability of credit and increases in the cost of credit adversely affect the ability of our customers to purchase boats from us and thereby adversely affect our ability to sell our products and impact the profitability of our finance and insurance activities.

9.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION:

We account for our stock-based compensation plans following the provisions of FASB Accounting Standards Codification 718, “Compensation — Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”).  In accordance with ASC 718, we use the Black-Scholes valuation model for valuing all stock-based compensation and shares purchased under our Employee Stock Purchase Plan. We measure compensation for restricted stock awards and restricted stock units at fair value on the grant date based on the number of shares expected to vest and the quoted market price of our common stock. We recognize compensation cost for all awards in operations, net of estimated forfeitures, on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for each separately vesting portion of the award.

During the three months December 31, 2016 and 2017, we recognized stock-based compensation expense of approximately $2.1 million and $1.5 million, respectively, in selling, general, and administrative expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Cash received from option exercises under all share-based compensation arrangements and the employee stock purchase plan for the three months ended December 31, 2016 and 2017, was approximately $785,000 and $2.4 million, respectively.  We currently expect to satisfy share-based awards with registered shares available to be issued.

10.

THE INCENTIVE STOCK PLANS:

During February 2017, our shareholders approved a proposal to amend the 2011 Stock-Based Compensation Plan (“2011 Plan”) to increase the 2,200,456 share threshold by 1,000,000 shares to 3,200,456 shares.  During January 2011, our shareholders approved a proposal to authorize our 2011 Plan, which replaced our 2007 Incentive Compensation Plan (“2007 Plan”). Our 2011 Plan provides for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, stock units, bonus stock, dividend equivalents, other stock related awards, and performance awards (collectively “awards”), that may be settled in cash, stock, or other property. Our 2011 Plan is designed to attract, motivate, retain, and reward our executives, employees, officers, directors, and independent contractors by providing such persons with annual(Floor Plan) and long-term performance incentives to expend their maximum effortsdebt.

Except as specified in the creation of shareholder value. Subsequent to the February 2017 amendment described above, the total number of shares of our common stock that may be subject to awards under the 2011 Plan is equal to 3,000,000 shares, plus: (i) any shares available for issuance and not subject to an award under the 2007 Plan, which was 200,456 shares at the time of approval of the 2011 Plan; (ii) the number of shares with respect to which awards granted under the 2011 Plan and the 2007 Plan terminate without the issuance of the shares or where the shares are forfeited or repurchased; (iii) with respect to awards granted under the 2011 Plan and the 2007 Plan, the number of shares


that are not issued as a result of the award being settled for cash or otherwise not issued in connection with the exercise or payment of the award; and (iv) the number of shares that are surrendered or withheld in payment of the exercise price of any award or any tax withholding requirements in connection with any award granted under the 2011 Plan or the 2007 Plan. The 2011 Plan terminates in January 2021, and awards may be granted at any time during the life of the 2011 Plan. The dates on which awards vest are determined by the Board of Directors or the Plan Administrator. The Board of Directors has appointed the Compensation Committee as the Plan Administrator. The exercise prices of options are determined by the Board of Directors or the Plan Administrator and are at least equal to the fair market value of shares of common stock on the date of grant. The term of options under the 2011 Plan may not exceed ten years. The options granted have varying vesting periods. To date, we have not settled or been under any obligation to settle any awards in cash.

No options were granted for the three months ended December 31, 2016 and 2017. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the three months ended December 31, 2016 and 2017 was $330,000 and $1.9 million, respectively.

As of December 31, 2016 and 2017, there was approximately $472,000 and $4,000, respectively, of unrecognized compensation costs related to non-vested options that are expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 0.8 years and 0.5 years, respectively. The total fair value of options vested during the three months ended December 31, 2016 and 2017 was approximately $2.5 million and $1.3 million, respectively.

We used the Black-Scholes model to estimate the fair value of options granted. The expected term of options granted is derived from the output of the option pricing model and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. Volatility is based on the historical volatility of our common stock. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual term of the options is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

11.

EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN:

During February 2012, our shareholders approved a proposal to amend our 2008 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“Stock Purchase Plan”) to increase the number of shares available under that plan by 500,000 shares. The Stock Purchase Plan as amended provides for up to 1,000,000 shares of common stock to be available for purchase by our regular employees who have completed at least one year of continuous service. In addition, there were 52,837 shares of common stock available under our 1998 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, which have been made available for issuance under our Stock Purchase Plan. The Stock Purchase Plan provides for implementation of up to 10 annual offerings beginning on the first day of October starting in 2008, with each offering terminating on September 30 of the following year. Each annual offering may be divided into two six-month offerings. For each offering, the purchase price per share will be the lower of: (i) 85% of the closing price of the common stock on the first day of the offering or (ii) 85% of the closing price of the common stock on the last day of the offering. The purchase price is paid through periodic payroll deductions not to exceed 10% of the participant’s earnings during each offering period. However, no participant may purchase more than $25,000 worth of common stock annually.

We used the Black-Scholes model to estimate the fair value of options granted to purchase shares issued pursuant to the Stock Purchase Plan. The expected term of options granted is derived from the output of the option pricing model and represents the period


of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. Volatility is based on the historical volatility of our common stock. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual term of the options is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

RESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS:

We have granted non-vested (restricted) stock awards (“restricted stock”) and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to employees and officers pursuant to the 2011 Plan and the 2007 Plan. The restricted stock awards and RSUs have varying vesting periods, but generally become fully vested between two and four years after the grant date, depending on the specific award, performance targets met for performance based awards granted to officers, and vesting period for time based awards. Officer performance based awards are granted at the target amount of shares that may be earned and the actual amount of the award earned generally could range from 0% to 200% of the target number of shares based on the actual specified performance target met. We accounted for the restricted stock awards granted using the measurement and recognition provisions of ASC 718. Accordingly, the fair value of the restricted stock awards, including performance based awards, is measured on the grant date and recognized in earnings over the requisite service period for each separately vesting portion of the award.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

We are party to various legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. While it is not feasible to determine the actual outcome of these actions as of December 31, 2017, we believe that these matters should not have a material adverse effect on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.


ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This Management’sthis “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements include statements regarding our “expectations,” “anticipations,” “intentions,” “beliefs,” or “strategies” regarding the future. These forward-looking statements include statements relating to market risks such as interest rate risk and foreign currency exchange rate risk; economic and industry conditions and corresponding effects on consumer behavior and operating results; environmental conditions; inclement weather; certain specific and isolated events; our future estimates, assumptions and judgments, including statements regarding whether such estimates, assumptions and judgments would have a material adverse effect on our operating results; the impact of changes in accounting policy and standards; our plans to accelerate our growth through acquisitions and new store openings; our belief that our existing capital resources will be sufficient to finance our operations for at least the next 12 months, except for possible significant acquisitions; and the seasonality and cyclicality of our business and the effect of such seasonality and cyclicality on our business, financial results and inventory levels. Actual results could differ materially from those currently anticipated as a result of a number of factors, including those set forth under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017.

General

We are the largest recreational boat and yacht retailer in the United States with fiscal 2017 revenue in excess of $1 billion. Through our current 62 retail locations in 16 states (as of the filing of this Quarterly Report on 10-Q), we sell new and used recreational boats and related marine products, including engines, trailers, parts, and accessories. We also arrange related boat financing, insurance, and extended service contracts; provide boat repair and maintenance services; offer yacht and boat brokerage sales; and, where available, offer slip and storage accommodations, as well as the charter of power and sailing yachts in the British Virgin Islands.

MarineMax was incorporated in January 1998 (and reincorporated in Florida in March 2015).  We commenced operations with the acquisition of five independent recreational boat dealers on March 1, 1998.  Since the initial acquisitions in March 1998, we have, as of the filing of this Quarterly Report on 10-Q, acquired 27 recreational boat dealers, two boat brokerage operations, and two full-service yacht repair facilities. As a part of our acquisition strategy, we frequently engage in discussions with various recreational boat dealers regarding their potential acquisition by us.  Potential acquisition discussions frequently take place over a long period of time and involve difficult business integration and other issues, including, in some cases, management succession and related matters.  As a result of these and other factors, a number of potential acquisitions that from time to time appear likely to occur do not result in binding legal agreements and are not consummated.  We completed three in the fiscal year ended September 30, 2016, one acquisition in the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017, and one acquisition to date in fiscal 2018.

General economic conditions and consumer spending patterns can negatively impact our operating results. Unfavorable local, regional, national, or global economic developments or uncertainties regarding future economic prospects could reduce consumer spending in the markets we serve and adversely affect our business. Economic conditions in areas in which we operate dealerships, particularly Florida in which we generated approximately 53%, 55%, and 55% of our revenue during fiscal 2015, 2016, and 2017, respectively, can have a major impact on our operations. Local influences, such as corporate downsizing, military base closings, and inclement weather such as hurricanes and other storms, environmental conditions, and specific events, such as the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010, also could adversely affect, and in certain instances have adversely affected, our operations in certain markets.

In an economic downturn, consumer discretionary spending levels generally decline, at times resulting in disproportionately large reductions in the sale of luxury goods. Consumer spending on luxury goods also may decline as a result of lower consumer confidence levels, even if prevailing economic conditions are favorable. As a result, an economic downturn could impact us more than certain of our competitors due to our strategic focus on a higher end of our market. Although we have expanded our operations during periods of stagnant or modestly declining industry trends, the cyclical nature of the recreational boating industry or the lack of industry growth may adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Any period of adverse economic conditions or low consumer confidence is likely to have a negative effect on our business.

Lower consumer spending resulting from a downturn in the housing market and other economic factors adversely affected our business in fiscal 2007, and continued weakness in consumer spending and depressed economic conditions had a substantial negative effect on our business and industry for several years after fiscal 2007. These conditions caused us to substantially reduce our acquisition program, delay new store openings, reduce our inventory purchases, engage in inventory reduction efforts, close a number of our retail locations, reduce our headcount, and amend and replace our credit facility. Acquisitions and new store openings remain important strategies to our company, and we plan to accelerate our growth through these strategies as economic conditions continue to


improve. However, we cannot predict the length of unfavorable economic or industry conditions or the extent to which they will continue to adversely affect our operating results nor can we predict the effectiveness of the measures we have taken to address this environment.

Although economic conditions have adversely affected our operating results, we believe we have capitalized on our core strengths to substantially outperform the industry, resulting in market share gains. Our ability to capture such market share supports the alignment of our retailing strategies with the desires of consumers. We believe the steps we have taken to address weak market conditions have yielded, and will yield in the future, an increase in revenue. If general economic trends continue to improve, we expect our core strengths and retailing strategies will position us to capitalize on growth opportunities as they occur and will allow us to emerge from the current economic environment with greater earnings potential.

Application of Critical Accounting Policies

We have identified the policies below as critical to our business operations and the understanding of our results of operations. The impact and risks related to these policies on our business operations are discussed throughout Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations when such policies affect our reported and expected financial results.

In the ordinary course of business, we make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of results of operations and financial condition in the preparation of our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. We base our estimates on historical experiences and on various other assumptions (including future earnings) that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. The results of these assumptions form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities, including contingent assets and liabilities such as contingent consideration liabilities from acquisitions, which are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates under different assumptions and conditions. We believe that the following discussion addresses our most critical accounting policies, which are those that are most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and require our most difficult, subjective, and complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue from boat, motor, and trailer sales and parts and service operations at the time the boat, motor, trailer, or part is delivered to or accepted by the customer or the service is completed. We recognize deferred revenue from service operations and slip and storage services on a straight-line basis over the term of the contract as services are completed. We recognize commissions earned from a brokerage sale at the time the related brokerage transaction closes. We recognize income from the rentals of chartering power and sailing yachts on a straight-line basis over the term of the contract as services are completed. We recognize commissions earned by us for placing notes with financial institutions in connection with customer boat financing when we recognize the related boat sales. We recognize marketing fees earned on credit, life, accident, disability, gap, and hull insurance products sold by third-party insurance companies at the later of customer acceptance of the insurance product as evidenced by contract execution or when the related boat sale is recognized. We recognize income from the rentals of chartering power and sailing yachts on a straight-line basis over the term of the contract or when service is completed. We also recognize commissions earned on extended warranty service contracts sold on behalf of third-party insurance companies at the later of customer acceptance of the service contract terms as evidenced by contract execution or recognition of the related boat sale.

Certain finance and extended warranty commissions and marketing fees on insurance products may be charged back if a customer terminates or defaults on the underlying contract within a specified period of time. Based upon our experience of terminations and defaults, we maintain a chargeback allowance that was not material to our financial statements taken as a whole as of December 31, 2017. Should results differ materially from our historical experiences, we would need to modify our estimate of future chargebacks, which could have a material adverse effect on our operating margins. We do not believe there is a reasonable likelihood that there will be a change in the future estimates or assumptions we use to calculate our estimate of future chargebacks which would result in a material effect on our operating results.

Vendor Consideration Received

We account for consideration received from our vendors in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification 605-50, “Revenue Recognition - Customer Payments and Incentives” (“ASC 605-50”). ASC 605-50 requires us to classify interest assistance received from manufacturers as a reduction of inventory cost and related cost of sales as opposed to netting the assistance against our interest expense incurred with our lenders. Pursuant to ASC 605-50, amounts received by us under our co-op assistance programs from our manufacturers are netted against related advertising expenses. Our consideration received from our vendors contains uncertainties because the calculation requires management to make assumptions and to apply judgment regarding a number of factors,


including our ability to collect amounts due from vendors and the ability to meet certain criteria stipulated by our vendors. We do not believe there is a reasonable likelihood that there will be a change in the future estimates or assumptions we use to calculate our vendor considerations which would result in a material effect on our operating results.

Inventories

Inventory costs consist of the amount paid to acquire inventory, net of vendor consideration and purchase discounts, the cost of equipment added, reconditioning costs, and transportation costs relating to acquiring inventory for sale. We state new and used boat, motor, and trailer inventories at the lower of cost, determined on a specific-identification basis, or net realizable value. We state parts and accessories at the lower of cost, determined on an average cost basis, or net realizable value. We utilize our historical experience, the aging of the inventories, and our consideration of current market trends as the basis for determining a lower of cost or net realizable value valuation allowance. Our lower of cost or net realizable value valuation allowance contains uncertainties because the calculation requires management to make assumptions and to apply judgment regarding the amount at which the inventory will ultimately be sold which considers forecasted market trends, model changes, and new product introductions. With the exception of inventory of $7.6 million in the British Virgin Islands damaged as a result of Hurricane Irma as of September 30, 2017, we do not believe there is a reasonable likelihood that there will be a change in the future estimates or assumptions we use to calculate our lower of cost or net realizable value valuation allowance which would result in a material effect on our operating results. With respect to the inventory in the British Virgin Islands, given the damage from Hurricane Irma, we have estimated the net realizable value of the inventory as of December 31, 2017, however, we cannot be certain we have quantified the complete negative effects of the damage sustained, nor can we be certain that further damage will not be incurred upon the passage of time as repair work is performed. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2017, our lower of cost or net realizable value valuation allowance for new and used boat, motor, and trailer inventories was $1.8 million and $2.6 million, respectively. If events occur and market conditions change, causing the fair value to fall below carrying value, the lower of cost or net realizable value valuation allowance could increase.

Goodwill

We account for goodwill in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification 350, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other” (“ASC 350”), which provides that the excess of cost over net assets of businesses acquired is recorded as goodwill. In January 2017, we purchased Hall Marine Group, a privately owned boat dealer in the Southeast United States with locations in North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia, resulting in the recording of $16.0 million in goodwill.  In total, current and previous acquisitions have resulted in the recording of $25.9 million in goodwill. In accordance with ASC 350, we review goodwill for impairment at least annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Our annual impairment test is performed during the fourth fiscal quarter. If the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its fair value we would recognize an impairment loss in accordance with ASC 350. As of December 31, 2017, and based upon our most recent analysis, we determined through our qualitative assessment that it is not “more likely than not” that the fair values of our reporting units are less than their carrying values. As a result, we were not required to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. The qualitative assessment requires us to make judgments and assumptions regarding macroeconomic and industry conditions, our financial performance, and other factors. We do not believe there is a reasonable likelihood that there will be a change in the judgments and assumptions used in our qualitative assessment which would result in a material effect on our operating results.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

FASB Accounting Standards Codification 360-10-40, “Property, Plant, and Equipment - Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“ASC 360-10-40”), requires that long-lived assets, such as property and equipment and purchased intangibles subject to amortization, be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of the asset is measured by comparison of its carrying amount to undiscounted future net cash flows the asset is expected to generate. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair market value. Estimates of expected future cash flows represent our best estimate based on currently available information and reasonable and supportable assumptions. Our impairment loss calculations contain uncertainties because they require us to make assumptions and to apply judgment in order to estimate expected future cash flows. Any impairment recognized in accordance with ASC 360-10-40 is permanent and may not be restored. The analysis is performed at a regional level for indicators of permanent impairment given the geographical interdependencies among our locations. Based upon our most recent analysis, which excludes fixed assets classified as held for sale which are recorded at fair value, we believe no impairment of long-lived assets existed as of December 31, 2017. We do not believe there is a reasonable likelihood that there will be a change in the future estimates or assumptions used to test for recoverability which would result in a material effect on our operating results.


Stock-Based Compensation

We account for our stock-based compensation plans following the provisions of FASB Accounting Standards Codification 718, “Compensation — Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). In accordance with ASC 718, we use the Black-Scholes valuation model for valuing all stock-based compensation and shares purchased under our Employee Stock Purchase Plan. We measure compensation for restricted stock awards and restricted stock units at fair value on the grant date based on the number of shares expected to vest and the quoted market price of our common stock. We recognize compensation cost for all awards in operations, net of estimated forfeitures, on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for each separately vesting portion of the award. Our valuation models and generally accepted valuation techniques require us to make assumptions and to apply judgment to determine the fair value of our awards. These assumptions and judgments include estimating the volatility of our stock price, expected dividend yield, employee turnover rates and employee stock option exercise behaviors. We do not believe there is a reasonable likelihood that there will be a change in the future estimates or assumptions we use to calculate our stock-based compensation which would result in a material effect on our operating results.

Income Taxes

We account for income taxes in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). Under ASC 740, we recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. We measure deferred tax assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which we expect those temporary differences to be recovered or settled.  We record valuation allowances to reduce our deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized by considering all available positive and negative evidence.

Pursuant to ASC 740, we must consider all positive and negative evidence regarding the realization of deferred tax assets.  ASC 740 provides for four possible sources of taxable income to realize deferred tax assets: 1) taxable income in prior carryback years, 2) reversals of existing deferred tax liabilities, 3) tax planning strategies and 4) projected future taxable income.  As of December 31, 2017, we have no available taxable income in prior carryback years, limited reversals of existing deferred tax liabilities or prudent and feasible tax planning strategies.  Therefore, the recoverability of our deferred tax assets is dependent upon generating future taxable income.

The determination of releasing valuation allowances against deferred tax assets is made, in part, pursuant to our assessment as to whether it is more likely than not that we will generate sufficient future taxable income against which benefits of the deferred tax assets may or may not be realized. Significant judgment is required in making estimates regarding our ability to generate income in future periods.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017, the Company recorded a net tax benefit of $1.8 million primarily pertaining to a worthless stock deduction.  The tax benefit of this deduction was primarily based on the write-off of the Company’s investment in its British Virgin Islands subsidiary for US tax purposes.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2018, the Company recorded a reduction of our beginning deferred tax assets of approximately $889,000 and a corresponding increase in our income tax provision as a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act legislation passed in December 2017 which lowered the federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%, among other changes. The final impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act legislation may differ due to, among other things, changes in interpretations, our assumptions used, issuance of additional guidance, and actions we may take as a result of the new legislation.

The application of income tax law is inherently complex.  Laws and regulations in this area are voluminous and are often ambiguous.  Under ASC 740, the impact of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on an income tax return must be recognized in the financial statements at the largest amount that is more likely than not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority.  An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized in the financial statements unless it is more likely than not of being sustained.  As such, we are required to make subjective assumptions and judgments regarding our effective tax rate and our income tax exposure.  Our effective income tax rate is affected by changes in tax law in the jurisdictions in which we currently operate, tax jurisdictions of new retail locations, our earnings, and the results of tax audits.  We believe that the judgments and estimates discussed herein are reasonable.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” (“ASU 2014-09”), a converged standard on revenue recognition.  The new pronouncement requires revenue recognition to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects


to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.  The guidance also specifies the accounting for some costs to obtain or fulfill a contract with a customer, as well as enhanced disclosure requirements.  ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016.  While we are continuing to evaluate the impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, we currently do not believe the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, or will cause a significant change to our current accounting policies or internal control over financial reporting for revenue recognition on boat, motor, and trailer sales, parts and service operations, brokerage commissions, slip and storage services, charter rentals, and fee income generated from finance and insurance products. We plan to adopt ASU 2014-09 in fiscal 2019.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”).  This update requires organizations to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and also disclose key information about leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those annual periods. Earlier application is permitted for all entities as of the beginning of an interim or annual period.  While we are continuing to evaluate the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02 on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, we believe the adoption of ASU 2016-02 may have a significant and material impact to our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet given our current lease agreements for our leased retail locations.  We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on our other unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.  Based on a preliminary assessment, we expect that most of our operating lease commitments will be subject to the new guidance and recognized as operating lease liabilities and right-of-use assets upon adoption, resulting in a material increase in the assets and liabilities recorded on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.  We are continuing our assessment, which may identify additional impacts this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures and internal control over financial reporting. We plan to adopt ASU 2016-02 in fiscal 2020.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, “Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment (Topic 350)” (“ASU 2017-04”).  This update removes the requirement to compare the implied fair value of goodwill with its carrying amount as part of step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. As a result, under ASU 2017-04, an entity should perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount and should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the impairment loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. This guidance is effective prospectively for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed after January 1, 2017.  The adoption of ASU 2017-04 is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements or internal control over financial reporting.

Consolidated Results of Operations

The following discussion compares the three months ended December 31, 2017, with the three months ended December 31, 2016 and should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, including the related notes thereto, appearing elsewhere in this report.

Three Months Ended December 31, 2017 Compared with Three Months Ended December 31, 2016

Revenue.  Revenue increased $10.0 million, or 4.4%, to $236.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2017, from $226.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2016. Of this increase, $10.8 million was attributable to stores acquired that were not eligible for inclusion in the comparable-store base, which was partially offset by an approximate $770,000 decrease in comparable-store sales. Comparable-store sales increased 28% in the three months ended December 31, 2016. The increase in our store revenue was due primarily to increases in new and used boats sales.

Gross Profit.  Gross profit increased $6.1 million, or 11.5%, to $59.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2017, from $53.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2016. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue increased to 25.0% for the three months ended December 31, 2017 from 23.4% for the three months ended December 31, 2016. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of revenue was primarily the result of improved margins on new and used boat sales. The increase in gross profit dollars was primarily attributable to the increase in our gross margins. Additionally, our higher margin brokerage, finance and insurance products, service, and storage services increased as a percentage of revenue, contributing to our overall margins increasing accordingly.


Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general, and administrative expense increased $3.2 million, or 6.7%, to $50.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2017, from $47.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2016. Selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue increased to 21.2% for the three months ended December 31, 2017 from 20.8% for the three months December 31, 2016. The increase in selling, general, and administrative expenses was primarily attributable to recent acquisitions.

Interest Expense.  Interest expense increased $973,000, or 62.0%, to $2.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2017 from $1.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2016. Interest expense as a percentage of revenue increased to 1.1% for the three months ended December 31, 2017 from 0.7% for the three months ended December 31, 2016. The increase in interest expense was primarily the result of increased borrowings and increases in interest rates.

Income Taxes.  Income tax expense increased $418,000, or 22.8%, to $2.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2017 from $1.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2016. Our effective income tax rate decreased to 34.8% for the three months ended December 31, 2017 from 40.9% for three months ended December 31, 2016. The decrease was mainly due to the passage of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act legislation in December 2017 which lowered the federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%, partially offset by the re-measurement of our beginning deferred tax assets and liabilities which resulted in an additional charge to income tax expense for the period of $889,000.  

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our cash needs are primarily for working capital to support operations, including new and used boat and related parts inventories, off-season liquidity, and growth through acquisitions and new store openings. Acquisitions and new store openings remain important strategies to our company, and we have recently completed certain acquisitions, and we plan to accelerate our growth through these strategies. However, we cannot predict when unfavorable economic or financial conditions will return or the duration of such conditions. We regularly monitor the aging of our inventories and current market trends to evaluate our current and future inventory needs. We also use this evaluation in conjunction with our review of our current and expected operating performance and expected business levels to determine the adequacy of our financing needs.

These cash needs have historically been financed with cash generated from operations and borrowings under the Amended Credit Facility. Our ability to utilize the Amended Credit Facility to fund operations depends upon the collateral levels and compliance with the covenants of the Amended Credit Facility. Any turmoil in the credit markets and weakness in the retail markets may interfere with our ability to remain in compliance with the covenants of the Amended Credit Facility and therefore our ability to utilize the Amended Credit Facility to fund operations. As of December 31, 2017, we were in compliance with all covenants under the Amended Credit Facility. We currently depend upon dividends and other payments from our dealerships and the Amended Credit Facility to fund our current operations and meet our cash needs. As 100% owner of each of our dealerships, we determine the amounts of such distributions subject to applicable law, and currently, no agreements exist that restrict this flow of funds from our dealerships.

For the three months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, cash used in operating activities was approximately $56.2 million and $43.2 million, respectively.  For the three months ended December 31, 2017, cash used in operating activities was primarily related to an increase of inventory driven by timing of boats received, increases in accounts receivable, decreases in accounts payable, seasonal declines in accrued expenses and customer deposits, partially offset by insurance proceeds received as a result of Hurricane Irma and our net income adjusted for non-cash expenses such as depreciation and amortization expense, deferred income tax provision, and stock-based compensation expense. For the three months ended December 31, 2016, cash used in operating activities was primarily related to an increase of inventory driven by timing of boats received and seasonal declines in customer deposits and accrued expenses, partially offset by our net income adjusted for non-cash expenses such as depreciation and amortization expense along with stock-based compensation expense.

For the three months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, cash used in investing activities was approximately $2.5 million and $3.6 million, respectively. For the three months ended December 31, 2017, cash used in investing activities was primarily used to purchase property and equipment associated with improving existing retail facilities and making capital improvements as a result of Hurricane Irma. For the three months ended December 31, 2016, cash used in investing activities was primarily used to purchase inventory and property and equipment associated with improving existing retail facilities.

For the three months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, cash provided by financing activities was approximately $52.3 million and $45.3 million, respectively.  For the three months ended December 31, 2017, cash provided by financing activities was primarily attributable to net short-term borrowings as a result of increased inventory levels and proceeds from the issuance of common stock from our stock based compensation plans, partially offset by the repurchase of common stock under the share repurchase program and contingent consideration payments from acquisitions. For the three months ended December 31, 2016, cash provided by


financing activities was primarily attributable to net short-term borrowings as a result of increased inventory levels and proceeds from the issuance of common stock from our stock based compensation plans, partially offset by the repurchase of common stock under the share repurchase program.

In May 2017, we amended and restated our Inventory Financing Agreement (the “Amended Credit Facility”), originally entered into in June 2010, as subsequently amended, with Wells Fargo Commercial Distribution Finance LLC (formerly GE Commercial Distribution Finance Corporation). The May 2017 amendment and restatement extended the maturity date of the Credit Facility to October 2020, and the Amended Credit Facility includes two additional one-year extension periods, with lender approval. The May 2017 amendment and restatement, among other things, modified the amount of borrowing availability and maturity date of the Credit Facility. The Amended Credit Facility provides a floor plan financing commitment of up to $350.0 million, an increase from the previous limit of $300 million, subject to borrowing base availability resulting from the amount and aging of our inventory.

The Amended Credit Facility has certain financial covenants as specified in the agreement. The covenants include provisions that our leverage ratio must not exceed 2.75 to 1.0 and that our current ratio must be greater than 1.2 to 1.0. The interest rate for amounts outstanding under the Amended Credit Facility is 345 basis points above the one-month LIBOR. There is an unused line fee of ten basis points on the unused portion of the Amended Credit Facility.

Advances under the Amended Credit Facility are initiated by the acquisition of eligible new and used inventory or are re-advances against eligible new and used inventory that have been partially paid-off. Advances on new inventory will generally mature 1,080 days from the original invoice date. Advances on used inventory will mature 361 days from the date we acquire the used inventory. Each advance is subject to a curtailment schedule, which requires that we pay down the balance of each advance on a periodic basis starting after six months. The curtailment schedule varies based on the type and value of the inventory. The collateral for the Amended Credit Facility is all of our personal property with certain limited exceptions. None of our real estate has been pledged for collateral for the Amended Credit Facility.

As of December 31, 2017, our indebtedness associated with financing our inventory and working capital needs totaled approximately $307.7 million. As of December 31, 2016 and 2017, the interest rate on the outstanding short-term borrowings was approximately 4.0% and 4.7%, respectively. As of December 31, 2017, our additional available borrowings under our Amended Credit Facility were approximately $17.0 million based upon the outstanding borrowing base availability. The aging of our inventory limits our borrowing capacity as defined curtailments reduce the allowable advance rate as our inventory ages.

Except as specified in this "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations"Operations” and in the attached unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements,Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in the “Financial Statements (Unaudited)”, we have no material commitments for capital for the next 12 months. WeBased on the information currently available to us (including the impacts on consumer demand of the current supply chain and inventory challenges, inflation, higher interest rates, and potential recession, all of which are uncertain), we believe that the cash generated from sales and our existing capital resources will be sufficientadequate to financemeet our operationsliquidity and capital requirements for at least the next 12 months, except for possible significant acquisitions.

Impact of Seasonality and Weather on Operations

Our business, as well as the entire recreational boating industry, is highly seasonal, with seasonality varying in different geographic markets. With the exception of Florida, we generally realize significantly lower sales, and higher levels of inventories, and related short-term borrowings, which solely consisted of the Floor Plan, in the quarterly periods ending December 31 and March 31. The onset of the public boat and recreation shows in January generally stimulates boat sales and typically allows us to reduce our inventory levels and related short-term borrowings, which solely consisted of the Floor Plan, throughout the remainder of the fiscal year. Our business could become substantially more seasonal if we acquire dealers that operate in colder regions of the United States or close retail locations in warm climates.expansion into boat storage may act to reduce our seasonality and cyclicality.

Our business is also subject to weather patterns, which may adversely affect our results of operations. For example, prolonged or severe winter conditions, drought conditions (or merely reduced rainfall levels) or excessive rain, may limit access to area boating locations or render boating dangerous or inconvenient, thereby curtailing customer demand for our products and services.products. In addition, unseasonably cool weather and prolonged or severe winter conditions may lead to a shorter selling season in certain locations. Hurricanes and other storms could result in disruptions of our operations or damage to our boat inventories and facilities, as has been the case when Florida and other markets were affected by hurricanes.hurricanes, such as Hurricanes Harvey and Irma in 2017 and Hurricane Ian in 2022. Although our geographic diversity is likely to reduce the overall impact to us of adverse weather conditions in any one market area, these conditions will continue to represent potential, material adverse risks to us and our future financial performance.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVEQUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest Rate Risk

As of December 31, 2017, all ofWe are exposed to risk from changes in interest rates on our short-term debt bore interest at a variable rate, tied to LIBOR as a reference rate.outstanding indebtedness. Changes in the underlying LIBOR interest raterates on our short-term borrowings, which solely consisted of the Floor Plan, and long-term debt, which have variable interest rates, could affect our earnings. For example, a hypothetical 100 basis point, 200 basis point, or 300 basis point increase in the interest rate on our short-term debt would result in an increase of approximately $3.1$9.0 million, $18.1 million, or $27.1 million in annual pre-tax interest expense. ThisThese estimated increase isincreases are based upon the outstanding balance of our short-term borrowings, which solely consisted of the Floor Plan, and long-term debt as of December 31, 2017June 30, 2023 and assumes no mitigating changes by us to reduce the outstanding balances and no additional interest assistance that could be received from vendors due to the interest rate increase.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

Products purchased from European-based and Chinese-based manufacturers are transacted in U.S. dollars. Fluctuations in the U.S. dollar exchange rate may impact the retail price at which we can sell foreign products. Accordingly, fluctuations in the value of other currencies compared with the U.S. dollar may impact the price points at which we can profitably sell such foreign products, and such price points may not be competitive with other products in the United States. Thus, such fluctuations in exchange rates ultimately may impact the amount of revenue, cost of goods sold, cash flows and earnings we recognize for such foreign products. We cannot predict the effects of exchange rate fluctuations on our operating results. In certain cases, we may enter into foreign currency cash flow hedges to reduce the variability of cash flows associated with forecasted purchases of boats and yachts from European-based and Chinese-based manufacturers. We are not currently engaged in foreign currency exchange hedging transactions to manage our foreign currency exposure. If and when we do engage in foreign currency exchange hedging transactions, there can be no assurance that our strategies will adequately protect our operating results from the effects of exchange rate fluctuations.

Additionally, the Fraser Yachts Group, Northrop & Johnson, and IGY Marinas have transactions and balances denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Most of the transactions or balances for Fraser Yachts Group are denominated in euros. Net revenues recognized whose functional currency was not the U.S. dollar were less than 2% of our total revenues in fiscal 2022.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that material information required to be disclosed by us in Securities Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’sSEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, such officers have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Controls

During the quarter ended December 31, 2017,June 30, 2023, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or were reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.reporting, except as described in the following sentence. On October 1, 2022, we acquired IGY Marinas. As we proceed with integration, we are implementing various accounting processes and internal controls over financial reporting for this reporting subsidiary.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Although our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the companyCompany have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override

of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, a control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
