•Revenue increased 11% to $1.94 billion
•Same-store sales increased 3%
•Gross profit margin of 27.6%
•A $147 million non-cash intangible asset impairment charge in the fourth quarter generated a GAAP net loss of $(39) million, or $(2.69) per diluted share and adjusted diluted earnings per share1 of $5.10

BUFORD, GA – November 16, 2023 – OneWater Marine Inc. (NASDAQ: ONEW) (“OneWater” or the “Company”) today announced results for its fiscal fourth quarter and year ended September 30, 2023.
“Our team delivered record revenue, solid gross margins and strong cash generation in fiscal 2023, despite a dynamic operating environment. Healthy demand and effective execution drove a double-digit revenue increase and a 3.0% increase in same-store sales for the year. Our gross profit margin continues to stabilize, bolstered by a 26% increase in our higher-margin service, parts and other sales which helped offset the expected decline in product margins as the industry returns to historical seasonality and more normalized pricing,” commented Austin Singleton, Chief Executive Officer at OneWater.
“Moving into fiscal 2024, our proactive and aggressive approach to inventory management positions us well as we enter the seasonally slower winter months. We have reinvigorated our deal activity in-line with our strategic priorities and remain focused on executing our proven strategy to continue outperforming the industry and driving value for our shareholders.”

Fiscal Fourth Quarter 2023 Results
Revenue for fiscal fourth quarter 2023 was $451.0 million, an increase of 13.4% compared to $397.5 million in fiscal fourth quarter 2022. The growth was primarily attributable to strong pre-owned boat sales and double-digit growth in new boat revenue. During fiscal fourth quarter 2023, dealership same-store sales increased 14.6% driven by increases in both units sold and average price per unit.
New boat revenue increased 11.9%, driven by an increase in average unit price, partially offset by a slight decrease in units sold. Finance & insurance income increased 2.3% compared to the prior year quarter. Pre-owned boat revenue increased 36.4% driven by an increase in both unit sales and average price per unit. Service, parts & other sales were up 0.7% compared to the prior year quarter.
Gross profit totaled $119.0 million for fiscal fourth quarter 2023, down $7.2 million from $126.2 million for fiscal fourth quarter 2022. Gross profit margin of 26.4% decreased 570 basis points compared to the prior year period, driven by the normalization of new and pre-owned boat pricing.
Fiscal fourth quarter 2023 selling, general and administrative expenses totaled $84.7 million, or 18.8% of revenue, compared to $79.7 million, or 20.0% of revenue, in fiscal fourth quarter 2022. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue was driven by the Company’s cost optimization efforts.
In fiscal fourth quarter 2023, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $147.4 million related to a write down of certain goodwill and identifiable intangible assets. The impairment was largely driven by the decline in the Distribution Segment results and the Company's market capitalization.
Net loss for fiscal fourth quarter 2023 totaled $(110.9) million, compared to net income of $22.3 million in fiscal fourth quarter 2022 due to the non-cash impairment charge related to intangible assets. The Company reported a net loss per diluted share for fiscal fourth quarter 2023 of $(6.89), compared to net income per diluted share of $1.28 in 2022. Adjusted earnings per diluted share1 for fiscal fourth quarter 2023 was $0.42, compared to $1.68 in 2022.
Fiscal fourth quarter 2023 Adjusted EBITDA1 decreased 38.1% to $28.0 million compared to $45.4 million for fiscal fourth quarter 2022.

Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2023 Results
Revenue for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2023 increased 11.0% to $1,936.3 million from $1,744.8 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022, driven by an increase in average unit price of both new and pre-owned boats, an increase in unit sales of pre-owned boats, and a 26.4% increase in service, parts & other sales compared to the prior year. Same-store sales increased 3.0% compared to the prior year.
Gross profit totaled $535.1 million for fiscal year 2023, compared to $553.7 million for fiscal year 2022. Gross profit margin of 27.6% decreased 330 basis points compared to the prior year, primarily due to moderated boat pricing as a result of the industry normalization following the COVID-era demand environment.
Fiscal year 2023 selling, general and administrative expenses totaled $345.5 million, or 17.8% of revenue, compared to $302.1 million, or 17.3% of revenue in fiscal year 2022. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue was due mainly to increased costs associated with the return to a more traditional promotional environment and higher costs associated with our acquired service, parts & other businesses.
Net loss for fiscal year 2023 totaled $(39.1) million compared to net income of $152.6 million in fiscal year 2022, a decrease of $191.7 million. The decrease was primarily due to a $147.4 million non-cash impairment charge related to certain intangible assets during the fourth quarter, as well as the decrease in gross margins and increase in selling, general and administrative expenses in fiscal year 2023. The Company reported a net loss per diluted share for fiscal year 2023 of $(2.69), compared to net income per diluted share of $9.13 in 2022. Adjusted earnings per diluted share1 for fiscal year 2023 was $5.10 per diluted share, compared to $10.55 per diluted share in 2022. Adjusted EBITDA1 decreased 32.4% to $167.4 million, compared to $247.6 million in fiscal year 2022.
As of September 30, 2023, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents balance was $84.6 million and total liquidity, including cash and availability under credit facilities, was in excess of $100.0 million. Total inventory as of September 30, 2023, increased to $609.6 million compared to $373.0 million on September 30, 2022, primarily driven by normalization of the supply chain and recently completed acquisitions.
Total long-term debt as of September 30, 2023 was $457.8 million, and adjusted long-term net debt (net of $84.6 million cash)1 was 2.2 times trailing twelve-month Adjusted EBITDA1.
Fiscal Year 2024 Guidance
For fiscal full year 2024, OneWater anticipates dealership same-store sales to be up low to mid-single digits, despite an expected challenging macroeconomic environment. Adjusted EBITDA2 is expected to be in the range of $130 million to $155 million and earnings per diluted share is expected to be in the range of $3.25 to $3.75. In considering this outlook, we are not expecting a major economic downturn or recovery. Adjusted EBITDA guidance now adjusts for stock-based compensation, in-line with industry standards, and will be reported as such on a go-forward basis. Fiscal fourth quarter and full-year 2023 results are currently provided under the historical Adjusted EBITDA definition.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key Performance Indicators
This press release and our related earnings call contain certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income Attributable to OneWater Marine Inc., Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share and Adjusted Long-Term Net Debt, as measures of our operating performance. Management believes these measures may be useful in performing meaningful comparisons of past and present operating results, to understand the performance of the Company’s ongoing operations and how management views the business. Reconciliations of reported GAAP measures to adjusted non-GAAP measures are included in the financial schedules contained in this press release. These measures, however, should not be construed as an alternative to any other measure of performance determined in accordance with GAAP. Because our non-GAAP financial measures may be defined differently by other companies, our definition of these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing its utility. We have not reconciled non-GAAP forward-looking measures, including Adjusted EBITDA guidance, to their corresponding GAAP measures due to the high variability and difficulty in making accurate forecasts and projections, particularly with respect to change in fair value of contingent consideration and transaction costs. Change in fair value of contingent consideration and transaction costs are affected by the acquisition, integration and post-acquisition performance of our acquirees which is difficult to predict and subject to change. Accordingly, reconciliations of forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA are not available without unreasonable effort.
Adjusted EBITDA
We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense – other, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization and other (income) expense, further adjusted to eliminate the effects of items such as the change in fair value of contingent consideration, gain (loss) on extinguishment of debt and transaction costs. See reconciliation above.
Our board of directors, management team and lenders use Adjusted EBITDA to assess our financial performance because it allows them to compare our operating performance on a consistent basis across periods by removing the effects of our capital structure (such as varying levels of interest expense), asset base (such as depreciation and amortization) and other items (such as the change in fair value of contingent consideration, gain or loss on extinguishment of debt and transaction costs) that impact the comparability of financial results from period to period. We present Adjusted EBITDA because we believe it provides useful information regarding the factors and trends affecting our business in addition to measures calculated under GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is not a financial measure presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe that the presentation of this non-GAAP financial measure will provide useful information to investors and analysts in assessing our financial performance and results of operations across reporting periods by excluding items we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance.
Adjusted Net Income Attributable to OneWater Marine Inc. and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share
We define Adjusted Net Income Attributable to OneWater Marine Inc. as net income (loss) attributable to OneWater Marine Inc. before transaction costs, intangible amortization, change in fair value of contingent consideration, loss on impairment and other expense (income), all of which are then adjusted for an allocation to the non-controlling interest of OneWater Marine Holdings, LLC. Each of these adjustments are subsequently adjusted for income tax at an estimated effective tax rate. Management also reports adjusted diluted earnings per share which presents all of the adjustments to net income attributable to OneWater Marine Inc. noted above on a per share basis. See reconciliation above.
Our board of directors, management team and lenders use Adjusted Net Income Attributable to OneWater Marine Inc. and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share to assess our financial performance because it allows them to compare our operating performance on a consistent basis across periods by removing the effects of unusual or one time charges and other items (such as the change in fair value of contingent consideration, intangible amortization, loss on impairment and transaction costs) that impact the comparability of financial results from period to period. We present these metrics because we believe it provides useful information regarding the factors and trends affecting our business in addition to measures calculated under GAAP. Adjusted Net Income Attributable to OneWater Marine Inc. and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share are not financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures will provide useful information to investors and analysts in assessing our financial performance and results of operations across reporting periods by excluding items we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance.
Adjusted Long-Term Net Debt
We define Adjusted Long-Term Net Debt as long-term debt (including current portion) less cash. We consider, and we believe certain investors and analysts consider, adjusted long-term net debt, as well as adjusted long-term net debt divided by trailing twelve-month Adjusted EBITDA, to be an indicator of our financial leverage.
Same-Store Sales
We define same-store sales as sales from our Dealership segment, excluding new and acquired stores. New and acquired stores become eligible for inclusion in the comparable store base at the end of the store’s thirteenth month of operations under our ownership and revenues are only included for identical months in the same-store base periods. Stores relocated within an existing market remain in the comparable store base for all periods. Additionally, amounts related to closed stores are excluded from each comparative base period. We use same-store sales to assess the organic growth of our Dealership segment revenue on a same-store basis. We believe that our assessment on a same-store basis represents an important indicator of comparative financial results and provides relevant information to assess our performance.

This press release and statements made during the above referenced conference call may contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including regarding our strategy, future operations, financial position, prospects, plans and objectives of management, growth rate and its expectations regarding future revenue, operating income or loss or earnings or loss per share. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as “may,” “will,” “will be,” “will likely result,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “could,” “would,” “foresees,” “intends,” “target,” “projects,” “contemplates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” “outlook” or “continue” or the negative of these words or other similar terms or expressions that concern our expectations, strategy, plans or intentions. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of
future performance, but are based on management's current expectations, assumptions and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effect on us, which are inherently subject to uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Our expectations expressed or implied in these forward-looking statements may not turn out to be correct.
Important factors, some of which are beyond our control, that could cause actual results to differ materially from our historical results or those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements include the following: effects of industry wide supply chain challenges including a heightened inflationary environment and our ability to maintain adequate inventory, changes in demand for our products and services, the seasonality and volatility of the boat industry, fluctuation in interest rates, adverse weather events, our acquisition and business strategies, the inability to comply with the financial and other covenants and metrics in our credit facilities, cash flow and access to capital, effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business, risks related to the ability to realize the anticipated benefits of any proposed acquisitions, including the risk that proposed acquisitions will not be integrated successfully, the timing of development expenditures, and other risks. More information on these risks and other potential factors that could affect our financial results is included in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including in the “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” sections of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022 and in our subsequently filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, each of which is on file with the SEC and available from OneWater Marine’s website at www.onewatermarine.com under the “Investors” tab, and in other documents OneWater Marine files with the SEC.
