MarineMax, Inc. Q3 FY2025 earnings call

• Challenging retail environment due to economic uncertainty, trade policies, and geopolitical tensions led to soft demand. • Teams focused on strategic priorities, cost management, and operational discipline. • Recent highlights include IGY Savannah Harbor Marina opening, IGY selected as Marina Manager for Wynn Al Marjan Island Marina, new models from Intrepid and Cruisers, growth of Newcoast Financial, and marina development in Stuart, Florida.

Third quarter revenue was $657 million, with same-store sales down high single digits. The Premium Boat segment faced unit declines due to economic concerns. Higher-margin businesses like Finance and Insurance, Superyacht Services, and Storage and Marina operations (including IGY) maintained a gross margin above 30%.

• Impact of seasonality and weather. • Global economic conditions and consumer spending levels. • Tariff-related uncertainty affecting consumer confidence. • Inventory levels continuing to pressure margins.

A: July not due to extra promotion. Need for inventory recalibration and reduced uncertainty.
