Access earnings results, analyst expectations, report, slides, earnings call, and transcript.
Overview
The earnings call presented a mixed outlook. Positive aspects include product innovation, strategic acquisitions, and a robust aftermarket initiative. However, the reduction in cash flow due to a legal settlement, declining market expectations in RV and marine sectors, and stable but not growing operating margins offset these positives. The Q&A section provided some optimism with stabilizing inventories and new product developments, but also highlighted uncertainties in pricing, inflation, and dealer restocking decisions. Given the market cap, the overall sentiment is neutral, expecting little movement in the stock price.
Key Financial Performance
Revenue Revenue increased 3% year-over-year to approximately $1.05 billion in Q2 2025. This growth was driven by a 7% increase in RV revenue and a 3% increase in housing revenue, offset by a 1% decline in marine revenue and a 7% decline in powersports revenue.
Adjusted Earnings Per Share (EPS) Adjusted EPS increased 4% year-over-year to $1.50 in Q2 2025, including approximately $0.03 of dilution from convertible notes and related warrants. The increase was attributed to disciplined performance and returns on investments.
RV Revenue RV revenue increased 7% year-over-year to $479 million in Q2 2025, driven by acquisitions and market share gains. RV content per unit on a TTM basis was $4,952, flat year-over-year, but increased 6% on a quarterly basis.
Marine Revenue Marine revenue decreased 1% year-over-year to $156 million in Q2 2025, outperforming an estimated 5% decrease in wholesale powerboat unit shipments. Marine content per wholesale powerboat unit increased 2% year-over-year to $4,012 on a TTM basis.
Powersports Revenue Powersports revenue decreased 7% year-over-year to $96 million in Q2 2025. The decline was attributed to OEMs and dealers optimizing inventory. However, the utility side of the market showed resilience.
Housing Revenue Housing revenue increased 3% year-over-year to $315 million in Q2 2025, representing 30% of consolidated sales. Manufactured housing content per unit on a TTM basis increased 3% year-over-year to $6,670.
Gross Margin Gross margin increased 110 basis points year-over-year to 23.9% in Q2 2025. This improvement was driven by diversification of the business model, margin-accretive acquisitions, and disciplined labor management.
Operating Margin Operating margin remained flat year-over-year at 8.3% in Q2 2025. Margin-accretive acquisitions and absorption from RV and housing businesses offset softer demand in marine and powersports.
Net Income Net income decreased 32% year-over-year to $32 million in Q2 2025, impacted by a non-recurring legal settlement. Adjusted net income, excluding the settlement, showed a 4% increase.
Adjusted EBITDA Adjusted EBITDA increased 4% year-over-year to $135 million in Q2 2025, with an adjusted EBITDA margin of 12.9%, up 10 basis points.
Cash Flow Cash provided by operations for the first 6 months of 2025 was $189 million, up from $173 million in the prior year. Free cash flow for the same period was approximately $151 million.
