(Nasdaq: SWIM), the largest designer, manufacturer, and marketer of in-ground residential swimming pools in North America, Australia, and New Zealand, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2024. Commenting on the results, Scott Rajeski, President and CEO, said, “This was a year of substantial achievement for Latham Group. Our in-ground pool sales continued to outperform the U.S. in-ground pool market, we succeeded in expanding margins despite lower utilization, and we made investments that have positioned the Company for sales growth and increased profitability in 2025 and beyond. “Latham’s leadership position in fiberglass pools was a key driver of our pool market outperformance against U.S. in-ground pool starts which were down approximately 15% in 2024. Fiberglass pools represented 75% of Latham’s in-ground pool sales in 2024, compared to 73% in 2023. According to management estimates, fiberglass pools gained one percentage point of total in-ground-pool market share, accounting for 24% of all in-ground pools installed in the U.S. last year, up from 23% in 2023. In addition to its cost advantages, consumers increasingly are attracted to the fast and easy installation and the eco-friendly aspects of fiberglass in contrast to concrete pools. Our 2024 sales performance also benefitted from a five-month contribution from our Coverstar Central acquisition and increased awareness and adoption of automatic safety covers, which in addition to pool safety, offer significant costs savings to homeowners. Our diversified product mix continues to contribute to Latham’s ability to outperform new U.S. pool starts, as our broad portfolio of pool liners and covers provides access to the more stable replacement market. “A key highlight of 2024 was our ability to drive margin expansion on lower year-on-year sales. Gross margin expanded by over 300 basis points led by our lean manufacturing and value engineering initiatives together with supplier diversification initiatives and overall improved procurement activity that are expected to enable further margin expansion in 2025 and beyond. Adjusted EBITDA margin expanded by 30 basis points as higher gross margin more than offset increased spending on growth projects, including the build-out of our market position in the Sand States. “Latham ended 2024 in a strong financial position. Operating cash flow exceeded $60 million, and our year-end cash balance was $56 million, after spending approximately $65 million on the Coverstar Central acquisition and repaying $21 million in debt. Our strong balance sheet provides us with important financial flexibility to support both organic and acquisitive growth.” Fourth Quarter 2024 Results Net sales for the fourth quarter of 2024 were $87.3 million, down $3.6 million or 4.0%, from $90.9 million in the prior year’s fourth quarter primarily reflecting challenging industry conditions. Fourth Quarter Net Sales by Product Line(in thousands) Fiscal Quarter Ended December 31, 2024December 31, 2023In-Ground Swimming Pools$43,639 $45,799 Covers 31,209 31,988 Liners 12,425 13,080 Total$87,273 $90,867 Gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2024 was $21.4 million, slightly above $21.2 million in the prior year’s fourth quarter. Gross margin of 24.6% expanded by 130 basis points from 23.3% in the year-ago quarter, reflecting production efficiencies and a margin benefit from the acquisition of Coverstar Central. Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $27.2 million, an increase of $3.6 million or 15.2%, from $23.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, primarily representing increased spending on sales and marketing to drive future growth and performance-based compensation, as well as the acquisition of Coverstar Central. Net loss was $29.2 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, inclusive of $8.7 million of non-recurring non-cash income tax expense due to a valuation allowance established on foreign deferred tax assets and a $4.5 million loss on foreign currency transactions associated with our international subsidiaries. This compares to net income of $0.1 million, or $0.00 per diluted share, reported for the prior year’s fourth quarter. Net loss margin was 33.4%, compared to net income margin of 0.01% for the fourth quarter of 2023. Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2024 was $3.6 million, down $6.3 million or 63.4% from $9.9 million in the prior year’s fourth quarter. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to increased investment in sales and marketing, and performance-based compensation. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 4.2%, 670 basis points below the 10.9% reported in the prior year period. Full Year 2024 Results Net sales were $508.5 million, down $58.0 million or 10.2%, from $566.5 million in the prior year period, primarily attributable to lower sales volume due to soft industry conditions, which resulted in an estimated decline in U.S. pool starts of approximately 15% in 2024. Full Year 2024 Net Sales by Product Line(in thousands) Year Ended December 31, 2024December 31, 2023In-Ground Swimming Pools$259,214 $297,828 Covers 131,335 140,949 Liners 117,971 127,715 Total$508,520 $566,492 Gross profit was $153.7 million, slightly above the $152.9 million reported in the prior year period, despite the overall pool market being down approximately 15% in 2024. Gross margin expanded by 320 basis points to 30.2% from 27.0% in the prior year period, primarily resulting from production efficiencies from lean manufacturing and value engineering initiatives, improved procurement, and modest deflation. Selling, general, and administrative expenses decreased to $108.4 million, down $1.9 million or 1.8%, from $110.3 million in the prior year period, primarily due to an $11.3 million reduction in non-cash stock-based compensation expenses, as well as our cost containment initiatives and restructuring programs, which were partially offset by approximately $8 million in higher performance-based compensation and higher sales and marketing spend to gain share in the Sand States and further strengthen our market position. Net loss was $17.9 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, inclusive of $8.7 million of non-recurring income tax expense due to a valuation allowance established on foreign deferred tax assets and a $6.2 million loss on foreign currency transactions associated with our international subsidiaries. This compares to a net loss of $2.4 million, or $0.02 per diluted share in the prior year period. Net loss margin was 3.5% compared to a net loss margin of 0.4% in the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA was $80.2 million, down $7.8 million or 8.9% from $88.0 million in the prior year. The $7.8 million decrease in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to higher performance-based compensation and increased investment in sales and marketing programs to further strengthen our market position. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 15.8%, a 30-basis-point increase from 15.5% in the prior year period. Balance Sheet, Cash Flow, and Liquidity Latham ended 2024 with cash of $56.4 million after the purchase of Coverstar Central for approximately $65 million in August 2024 and the repayment of approximately $21 million of debt in the year ended December 31, 2024. Net cash provided by operating activities was $6.2 million in the fourth quarter and $61.3 million for the full year 2024. Total debt was $281.5 million at year-end, and the net debt leverage ratio was 2.8. Capital expenditures totaled $6.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2024 compared to $4.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2023. For the year ended December 31, 2024, capital expenditures were $20.1 million compared to $33.2 million in the prior year period. Summary and Outlook “Latham has entered 2025 in a strong competitive position, with leadership in the growing fiberglass pool category and greater representation and market presence in the Sand States, which account for approximately two-thirds of new U.S. pool starts annually. Additionally, we have considerable opportunities to expand the adoption of automatic safety covers. We further strengthened our position in this growing category by recently acquiring two of our smaller autocover dealers. These factors support our confidence in our ability to continue to outperform the U.S in-ground pool market. “Industry conditions heading into this year are slightly more favorable than one year ago, but we believe trough market conditions are likely to continue through much of 2025. Therefore, we are managing to new U.S. pool starts in 2025 that approximate 2024 levels, but we have the ability to quickly and efficiently ramp-up to capture any increase in market demand. “Guidance for Latham’s full year 2025, contained in the table below, represents year-on-year sales growth of 8% at the midpoint, primarily driven by market share gains in fiberglass pools and the benefits of the Coverstar Central acquisition. Adjusted EBITDA growth of 19% at the midpoint reflects the significant operating leverage inherent in our business model and takes into account increased spending on growth initiatives. Capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $30 million at the midpoint, an increase of $10 million over 2024 levels, due to planned initiatives to drive fiberglass adoption in the Sand States,” Mr. Rajeski concluded.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures We track our non-GAAP financial measures to monitor and manage our underlying financial performance. This news release includes the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, net debt and net debt leverage ratio, on a historical and pro forma basis, which are non-GAAP financial measures that exclude the impact of certain costs, losses, and gains that are required to be included under GAAP. Our pro forma presentation gives effect to the Coverstar Central acquisition as if it occurred as of January 1, 2023. Although we believe these measures are useful to investors and analysts for the same reasons it is useful to management, as discussed below, these measures are neither a substitute for, nor superior to, U.S. GAAP financial measures or disclosures. Other companies may calculate similarly-titled non-GAAP measures differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. In addition, our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed to imply that our future results will be unaffected by any such adjustments. We have reconciled our historic non-GAAP financial measures to the applicable most comparable GAAP measures in this news release. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are key metrics used by management and our board of directors to assess our financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are also frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry, when considered alongside other GAAP measures. We use Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin to supplement GAAP measures of performance to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies, to make budgeting decisions, to utilize as a significant performance metric in our incentive compensation plans, and to compare our performance against that of other companies using similar measures. We have presented Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin solely as supplemental disclosures because we believe they allow for a more complete analysis of results of operations and assist investors and analysts in comparing our operating performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance, such as (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) interest expense, net, (iii) income tax expense (benefit), (iv) loss (gain) on sale and disposal of property and equipment, (v) restructuring charges, (vi) stock-based compensation expense, (vii) unrealized (gains) losses on foreign currency transactions, (viii) strategic initiative costs, (ix) acquisition and integration related costs, (x) Odessa fire and other such unusual events and (xi) other. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are non-GAAP financial measures and should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss) as a measure of financial performance or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, and they should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. You are encouraged to evaluate these adjustments and the reasons we consider them appropriate for supplemental analysis. In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in this news release. There can be no assurance that we will not modify the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin in the future, and any such modification may be material. In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, may not calculate Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin at all or may calculate Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin differently and accordingly, are not necessarily comparable to similarly entitled measures of other companies, which reduces the usefulness of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin as tools for comparison. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin have their limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin: do not reflect every expenditure, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;do not reflect changes in our working capital needs;do not reflect the interest expense, net, or the amounts necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our outstanding debt;do not reflect income tax expense (benefit), and because the payment of taxes is part of our operations, tax expense is a necessary element of our costs and ability to operate;do not reflect non-cash stock-based compensation, which will remain a key element of our overall compensation package; anddo not reflect the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations. Although depreciation and amortization are eliminated in the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin do not reflect any costs of such replacements. Net Debt and Net Debt Leverage Ratio Net Debt and Net Debt Leverage Ratio are non-GAAP financial measures used in monitoring and evaluating our overall liquidity, financial flexibility, and leverage. Other companies may calculate similarly titled non-GAAP measures differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. We define Net Debt as total debt less cash and cash equivalents. We define the Net Debt Leverage Ratio as Net Debt divided by last twelve months (“LTM”) of Adjusted EBITDA. We believe this measure is an important indicator of our ability to service our long-term debt obligations. There are material limitations to using Net Debt Leverage Ratio as we may not always be able to use cash to repay debt on a dollar-for-dollar basis.
