Brett McGill, CEO

Thank you, Mike. Good morning everyone and thank you for joining this call. I'm very proud of the extraordinary achievements of our team in fiscal 2021. Record revenue of more than $2 billion, record gross margin of over 30%, record earnings per share, all while achieving record Net Promoter Customer Satisfaction scores. Given the extremely lean inventory and well-documented supply chain issues, this is a great achievement in 2021. I want to thank the entire MarineMax team for their hard work and persistence which enabled us to finish the year with $6.78 in earnings per share compared to our guidance of $6.40 to $6.55. Today I'd like to share highlights from our fourth quarter and full year, followed by a discussion of the results of our strategic growth plan, which will continue to create shareholder value in 2022 and beyond, then Mike will discuss our financial results in more detail and provide color on our 2022 financial outlook. Let me start by touching on our fourth quarter and full year performance. For the quarter we generated 16% revenue growth, record gross margin of almost 38%, and record earnings per share of $1.45. I'm extremely pleased that our strategic acquisitions are exceeding expectations and diversifying our model resulting in robust margins and earnings growth. Our same-store sales for the quarter were down 7% versus 33% growth a year ago as supply chain challenges and the lean inventory environment worsened and impacted us as we moved through the later part of the quarter. However, demand remains strong and we see no softening as consumers are still actively seeking the boating lifestyle. This strong demand environment is highlighted by our customer deposits which jumped more than three times last year's level to over $100 million. Last year was elevated with increased demand so this increase this year is a significant sign of strong and growing demand. For the full year, same-store sales growth was over 13% on top of 25% a year ago. Our significant geographic and product diversification along with the effective utilization of our digital platform are driving profitability and growth. The marine industry is continuing to experience an influx of new boaters. Given our scale and global presence we are benefiting from our growing share of the market and based on available industry data, we believe we continue to gain market share. From a cadence perspective, the supply chain headwinds deteriorated as we moved through the quarter. I want to emphasize that we are not seeing a demand issue rather the timing of shipments is impacting our ability to fulfill some customer orders, and therefore recognize revenue. Simply put, if we had the boats, they would be delivered and we'd have even higher revenue. We are working closely with our manufacturing partners to satisfy the strong demand. But as many experts in the industry are forecasting it will likely not improve materially until later in fiscal 2022. It's a unique environment and one that is challenging to predict but our team will continue to perform. I also want to underscore our strategic growth plan and how it is not only driving market share and revenue growth but expanding company-wide margins. This quarter we increased our operating margin by 130 basis points over last year's record to 9.5%. We also finished the fiscal year with an operating margin increase of more than 300 basis points to over 10%. This performance is directly attributable to our ability to execute our strategy, focusing on higher gross margin businesses, including charter, finance, insurance, marina, storage, parts, service, and brokerage. The gross margin strength we produced in the first nine months of the year accelerated in the September quarter. Additionally, as we integrate our acquisitions, they continue to outperform and are aligned with our strategy of contributing to MarineMax's record margin expansion. Specifically, each company we have acquired has outperformed their best year or is on pace to outperform their best year. Earlier this month we shared that we have entered into an agreement to buy Intrepid Powerboats. Many of you know that Intrepid is an iconic brand led by one of the best management teams in the industry. We are very excited about having Ken Clinton and the Intrepid team join the MarineMax family. We plan to support them with their innovative plans to provide them capital and arm them with the tools to better serve the Intrepid nation. Now let me discuss our confidence we have that our strategy will continue to create sustained growth and long-term shareholder value in 2022 and beyond. We continue to make significant progress on our vision of creating exceptional customer experiences through best services, products and technology. Our team remains focused on these initiatives resulting in strong demand and margin. We've accomplished this through our global market presence, premium brand, valuable real estate locations, exceptional customer service, technology investments, strategic acquisitions, industry-leading inventory management and finally, a continued commitment to build on our strong company culture. Supported by one of the strongest balance sheets in the industry, we will continue to make strategic accretive acquisitions in a disciplined manner. The combination of being well capitalized and having a broad global geographic presence has allowed and will allow us to grow in many ways by adding additional dealers, marinas, storage, service-related offerings, manufacturing and asset-light business such as our Superyacht services business. We continue to have strong demand and are ready to keep serving our loyal customers. As supply constraints are resolved by manufacturers, we expect to ramp sales in the future. Our scale continues to be a competitive advantage as we leverage our deep manufacturing relationships, our nationwide shared inventory and our strong balance sheet to support the growing demand. We believe the combination of driving operating leverage and generating significant cash flow, coupled with strong consumer demand, will result in sustained growth well into fiscal 2022 and beyond. And with that update I will ask Mike to provide more detailed comments on the quarter.

Mike McLamb, CFO

Thank you, Brett, and good morning again everyone. I'd like to start by thanking our team for producing another record quarter and year underscored by strong operating leverage and significant free cash flow generation. For the quarter, revenue grew 16% to over $462 million even with the lean inventory environment as we benefited from the accretive acquisitions we completed during the year. Overall, our growth has been demand-driven across all segments of products and across every global market. We expected inventory to remain low through the quarter, but with the increased supply chain challenges, retail deliveries grew more challenging, which impacted revenue in excess of $50 million. This led to the decline in same-store sales growth. Our units declined in the quarter double-digits, while our average unit selling price continued to expand. However, with the increasingly stronger customer deposit visibility, coupled with our broad product portfolio and production insight from our manufacturing partners, we believe we are better positioned than most in our industry resulting in market share gains in all our major segments. Gross profit dollars increased over $58 million, while our gross margin rose 860 basis points to almost 38%. Our initiatives to drive margin growth over the last several years continue to generate solid results. Margins rose with contributions from multiple segments and businesses, including new and used boats, storage, parts and service, higher-margin finance, insurance and brokerage businesses, as well as our global superyacht services businesses Northrop & Johnson and Fraser Yachts. As expected, with Europe reopening, we did see improved sales in charter revenue in August and September this year. About half of our margin improvement came from the growth in our superyacht services businesses. Regarding SG&A, the majority of the increase was again due to rising sales and related commissions, combined with the recent acquisitions. SG&A rose as a percentage for a few reasons. We did expect significantly more sales, which are not lost but delayed. Additionally, as our higher-margin businesses grow the compensation related to those businesses are higher. We had elevated acquisition costs in a smaller quarter, not to mention some cost inflation. We believe SG&A overall is generally on track on an annual basis, but we will watch the inflationary pressures carefully. Our operating leverage in the quarter was about 15%, which drove very strong earnings growth setting another quarterly record with pre-tax earnings of over $43 million. Our record September quarter saw both net income and earnings per share rise over 21%, generating $1.45 in earnings per share versus an adjusted $1.19 a year ago. For the full year, I will make a few comments. The acquisitions we completed were all successfully integrated, resulting in record-setting results for each. Additionally, the acquisitions we completed over the last few years are all contributing greatly to our results. The management teams of each acquired company also are contributing to our overall success. Our ability to acquire and integrate companies is greater today than at any point in our history. During the year, we added significantly to the strength of our balance sheet, while continuing to make significant long-term investments in our real estate portfolio, our digital capabilities, and our team. Lastly for the full year, our EPS was close to double the midpoint of our initial guidance, and I would add that $6.78 is a pretty strong year. Moving on to our industry-leading balance sheet. We continue to build cash with over $220 million. Our inventory at quarter end was $231 million, down 22%. Excluding SkipperBud's and Cruiser Yachts inventory declined about double that percentage. Looking at our liabilities, short-term borrowings decreased sharply due to lower inventory and related financing as well as an increase in cash generation. Due to the demand we are seeing customer deposits as Brett said, more than tripled to over $100 million setting another new record. Our current ratio is over two and our total liabilities of tangible net worth ratio is at one, both of these are very impressive balance sheet metrics. Our tangible net worth is about $400 million. Our balance sheet has always been a formidable strategic advantage, and now more than ever it provides the capital for growth and expansion as opportunities arise in good or bad times. Turning to our guidance for fiscal year 2022. Fiscal 2021 and the September quarter generated significant operating leverage and demand remains strong. The challenge with projecting 2022 are the assumptions around the supply chain. Today, given what we are being told from our various manufacturing partners, we do expect retail unit growth in 2022. However, until we see more stabilization in the supply chain, our guidance assumes basically flat units. This combined with increases in our average unit selling price should provide annual same-store sales growth in the mid-single digits. Including the remainder of the Cruisers and Nisswa acquisitions, we expect total annual revenue growth in the high-single digits to 10%. Given the inflationary pressures in the marketplace, we do expect modest margin pressure. We have levers to mitigate these pressures, but believe it's prudent to include it in our expectations for now. Our guidance is also before any other acquisitions that we may complete including Intrepid. Using the low-end of our historical leverage range, plus a modest share increase and a tax rate of 25%, results in our earnings per share guidance range of $7.20 to $7.50. Obviously, we expect to update you throughout the year as our visibility increases on the supply chain. Turning to current trends, October is forecasted to end with positive same-store sales growth and our backlog is at record levels. As we have said industry demand remains strong and we are generally outperforming these elevated levels.

Brett McGill, CEO

Thank you, Mike. 2021 generated landmark metrics for MarineMax. And I am very proud of our team's ability to execute on our strategy and to successfully integrate our recent acquisitions driving superior operating leverage. We are pleased to see our business continue to build strength and are confident in our strategy for 2022 and beyond. Our operating margin ended the fiscal year at over 10% almost double 2019. This is the result of our team's commitment to capitalize on the strong industry demand. While we know we will face a few challenges related to the supply chain and inventory as we start fiscal 2022 beyond our organic growth we will pursue additional brand expansions in higher margin businesses to support our strategy to create long-term shareholder value. And with that operator, let's open up the call for questions.

Operator, Operator

Thank you. Our first question comes from Joe Altobello with Raymond James. Please go ahead with your question.

Unidentified Analyst, Analyst

Good morning everyone. This is Adam filling in for Joe. Congratulations on a successful year. I was wondering if you could break down and quantify the different aspects of the gross margin improvement from 29% to 30%, which you have been achieving over the last four or five quarters compared to now.

Mike McLamb, CFO

Yeah. Thank you, Adam. I can talk on the current quarter. I mentioned that half the margin expansion was from the very strong performance of our superyacht services businesses Fraser and Northrop & Johnson. The rest of it in the quarter is almost all our higher-margin businesses expanding. One of the things with same-store sales decline it gives us higher margin businesses, a chance to catch-up. So we saw an increase as a percentage of revenue in our marina business in our service business, in parts and accessories and F&I, all of which led to the very high margin in the quarter. New and used products accounted for a very small amount of the increase in the quarter because remember last year we started seeing increased demand and product margins were expanding at this time last year as well. On a year-to-date on an annual basis when you look at the 32% consolidated company margin versus the 26% last year, less than half of it is due to new and used product margin expansion, probably 35% something like that would be product margin expansion. The rest of it is the expansions in our higher margin businesses. Again, our superyacht services businesses the investments we've made in our marina businesses our service parts and accessories F&I all those businesses are driving the rest of it. So hopefully that answers your question a little bit.

Unidentified Analyst, Analyst

No. That's great. Thank you, Mike. And also, I know you guys alluded to customer deposits. Obviously, a good metric but not perfect, are there any store traffic or lead generation statistics you guys could give in terms of year-over-year metrics, or is that kind of not going to be disclosed at this time?

Brett McGill, CEO

Hey. This is Brett, Adam. We don't disclose the actual metrics on that, but we actually track that daily, weekly, monthly, everything from web traffic to leads that we're generating, etc. And we see it anywhere from ranging to flat to last year to up a little. It depends on the day and the week. But store traffic also is still holding strong. The boat shows that we have attended have great traffic coming through those. So we don't see any softening of the demand pipeline possibly even some increase.

Unidentified Analyst, Analyst

Awesome. And if I could squeeze one more in. Are you guys still seeing elevated levels first-time buying? I know you've alluded to it over several calls. Are first timers that bought a model year 2020 or model year 2021 returning to upgrade, or is it perhaps too early to get a good sense for that? And that's all for me.

Brett McGill, CEO

Yes, Adam. We monitor this closely and have noticed that first-time buyers new to MarineMax remain at elevated levels, with more new people joining our family. We also have groups of customers who have upgraded to newer boats. These trends are strong; they were excellent last year, and we expect them to continue. Bringing in new people to boating will have a very positive impact, and we are excited about it.

Unidentified Analyst, Analyst

Awesome. Thank you, gentlemen.

Operator, Operator

Our next question comes from the line of Mike Swartz with Truist. Please proceed with your question.

Mike Swartz, Analyst

Hey, guys. Good morning. Just maybe help us understand, I mean, I think you summarized it pretty clearly that your guidance assumes kind of flattish comparable unit sales for 2022. So maybe help us think about how that kind of trends through the fiscal year? I'm just trying to understand is this more of a back half weighted year just given the timing of deliveries and some of the supply chain bottlenecks? Just help us think about the cadence of the year.

Mike McLamb, CFO

Yes. Great question, Mike. And clearly with us having pretty strong same-store sales growth to start 2021, we had 20% growth in the December quarter and 45% growth in the March quarter both of which were unit-driven in addition to average unit selling price both of them contributed. So, yes, I think you'll see more growth in the back half of the year where we had 6% same-store sales growth in the June quarter which we did comment. Our units were actually down that quarter and then obviously, we're negative this quarter with units being down again. So we do see it being more quite frankly in a better time of the year for us. It's the seasonal highlight for us in the summertime. And it also is when hopefully the supply chain will be working more of the bugs out of it by then and things will be in a better position to have that growth.

Mike Swartz, Analyst

Sure. One of the main questions we're receiving is about the sustainability of margins going into 2022. The fourth quarter exceeded our expectations in terms of margins. Could you elaborate on the factors contributing to this, as well as any areas where you might anticipate more challenges throughout the year?

Mike McLamb, CFO

Yes. Good question again, Mike. I think the pressure, I alluded to it in the prepared remarks is just with the inflation that's coming in the industry. And while we're still being very successful passing price increases on today to consumers, we did bake in a little bit of extra pressure and we do actually have specifically in our guidance margins coming down slightly in 2022 because of the inflationary pressures we're seeing. We do think that with our ability to continue to focus on these higher-margin businesses those are some of the levers we can pull to try to offset some of the product pressures that we do expect.

Brett McGill, CEO

Yes, Mike, this last quarter showed that when sales were slightly down, our higher-margin strategy for these businesses really stood out. So, looking ahead, as discounting may return at some point, it could create challenges for both new and used boats. However, we have been diligently working for several years to bolster these high-margin businesses, which should become more evident.

Mike Swartz, Analyst

Okay. And just maybe one point of clarification on your comments, but I mean do you expect the kind of a promotional environment or 'normal promotional environment' to return in your fiscal year 2022, or do you think that's a couple of years out?

Brett McGill, CEO

No. Thanks for the clarification. With the inventory levels where they are, I can't envision any significant pricing pressure.

Mike McLamb, CFO

For a while.

Brett McGill, CEO

For a while especially not in 2022. A little concern like Mike mentioned around some margin erosion a little bit just based on price protection and input increases. But definitely it's not a discounting environment and promotional. Thank you.

Mike Swartz, Analyst

Okay. Great. Thank you, guys.

Mike McLamb, CFO

Thanks, Mike.

Brett McGill, CEO

Thanks.

Operator, Operator

Our next question comes from the line of Eric Wold with B. Riley. Please proceed with your question.

Eric Wold, Analyst

Thank you. Good morning guys. So you talked about, obviously, not seeing any degradation in demand and traffic and demand and deposits still trading in the right direction. What are you seeing in terms of pricing acceptance? Obviously, we're seeing prices move up profit from the pressures and labor constraints and whatnot from the OEMs. What do you do in terms of passing those along? How accepting are consumers around those? And any kind of anecdotal evidence that that may be getting too high or they still find this little?

Brett McGill, CEO

Yeah, it's a great question. We monitor it very closely. We're still looking at trying to price the boats to market even though all these costs continue to creep in. So we're watching it closely. Right now there doesn't appear to be any pricing pressure on the price increases demand there. Keep in mind too that the innovation of these products and the new technologies coming out continues to help support all of that. So right now no pressure on it, but it is something we look pretty far out in the future to say what's the tolerance level there.

Eric Wold, Analyst

And I know it'll vary based on brand and type of boat and all that. But what do you in general quoting buyers in terms of when they can expect to receive boats? For example you got the Fort Lauderdale show come up. What are people looking at in terms of the delay in deliveries?

Brett McGill, CEO

We have boats available quite quickly at the moment. With the extensive inventory we have coming up in Lauderdale, our team has a substantial selection to work with for delivering boats. It could take a month, two, or even three. There are some models that will take a longer time to deliver, but most can be ready. If someone is looking for a boat now intended for the northern region, they can expect to receive it by spring.

Eric Wold, Analyst

Got it. And then final question. You've highlighted a lot of the opportunity around the Aquila businesses that you've expanded marina and storage and F&I and all that. I guess, you've made two OEM acquisitions over the past six or so months. Are there any other holes in your product portfolio that could be filled by additional manufacturer acquisitions, or would you view those as more of the one-offs or two-offs so to speak?

Brett McGill, CEO

We are very excited about those acquisitions and the growth opportunities they present. As I've mentioned before, this is not a new strategic direction for us, but we will keep an eye out for other opportunities as they come up. However, this is not a completely new strategy that we are pursuing.

Eric Wold, Analyst

Understood. Thank you.

Brett McGill, CEO

Thank you Eric.

Operator, Operator

Our next question comes from the line of Scott Stember with C.L. King. Please proceed with your question.

Scott Stember, Analyst

Good morning guys, and congrats on a great quarter.

Brett McGill, CEO

Thanks Scott.

Scott Stember, Analyst

Can you maybe talk about the cadence of sales throughout the quarter? Was it just really chugging along through the end of the quarter? And it sounds as if you talk about how I guess October is up from a unit's perspective. What changed to bring that around? Any dynamics in the market more supply?

Mike McLamb, CFO

Yeah, that's a great question. Normally, when you have sufficient inventory, you don't face supply issues. It's challenging to explain how same-store sales can shift from negative to positive so quickly. In the current situation, the problem arises from shipments from manufacturers and our ability to receive products. Throughout the quarter, our capability to acquire products worsened for various reasons, with each manufacturer facing different issues that escalated as the quarter progressed. By late September and into October, we finally received some products that were expected in August and September, in addition to products scheduled for October. Therefore, we anticipate that October's same-store sales will improve. This highlights the current volatility of the supply chain. It's not a demand issue affecting our sales; rather, it's primarily about product availability.

Scott Stember, Analyst

Got it. So there will be volatility. There could be a down month in the months ahead. It just all depends on supply, or what you can get…?

Mike McLamb, CFO

Yes, based on our discussions with manufacturers, we feel optimistic about the situation, but it is dependent on navigating the various supply chain challenges with our manufacturing partners.

Scott Stember, Analyst

Got it. And just last question. You talked about your guidance, I guess, is based off of the conversations you've had with your OEM partners about, I guess, inventory and supply chain. What are you assuming? And what are they telling you? And when should we see an abatement of some of these issues?

Mike McLamb, CFO

The key question facing companies today is when the supply chain will stabilize. No one can say for certain, but there is a general belief that the supply chain will improve as we progress through 2022. Regarding your first question, the feedback we receive suggests we anticipate unit growth in retail for 2022, both for the industry and for us, based on what our manufacturers are telling us. However, in our guidance, we are not forecasting growth in units; we expect it to remain flat. The increase in our average unit selling price will mainly come from inflationary factors, along with the addition of the remaining Cruisers and the Nisswa acquisition, which should contribute to growth in the high single digits to around 10%. It's also important to note that the industry is currently experiencing a decline in units; overall, there has been an 8% drop in units compared to previous highs. As we look towards 2022, with the existing demand, any slight improvement in the supply chain could offset this decline. In 2020, we saw significant unit growth, but currently, the industry is down 8%, so we aren’t facing a tough comparison for unit growth. This underpins our optimism for 2022 as we navigate through the supply chain challenges.

Scott Stember, Analyst

Got it. That’s all I have. Thanks.

Mike McLamb, CFO

Thanks, Scott.

Operator, Operator

Our next question comes from the line of James Hardiman with Wedbush Securities. Please proceed with your question.

Sean Wagner, Analyst

Hello. This is Sean Wagner filling in for James. I wanted to clarify one point first. I understand that October is expected to show improvement in same-store sales growth. However, can you confirm whether unit sales are also going to increase, or are they simply performing better than the significant decline seen in the last quarter?

Mike McLamb, CFO

I don't have the unit forecast right in front of me, Sean. I don't recall if units are going to be up or not. Again, for the full year, we're assuming units will be flattish in our guidance range.

Sean Wagner, Analyst

Right. And that gets better throughout the year just based on comparisons?

Mike McLamb, CFO

That's correct.

Sean Wagner, Analyst

Okay. Do you have any insight into the double-digit decline in the quarter, which worsened as availability diminished? If you had access to the products you needed, how do you think same-store sales might have performed? I understand you've mentioned traffic metrics being flat to slightly up. Would that have been a reasonable level of units achieved if availability had not been a problem?

Mike McLamb, CFO

We were anticipating same-store sales growth in the quarter, considering the $50 million decline in revenue. To directly address your question, if we had the product available, we would have seen substantial unit growth. This is evident from the $100 million in customer deposits on our balance sheet. The demand is exceptionally strong, with people actively seeking our products. Therefore, I believe that it's an inventory problem affecting the entire industry, including us, rather than a lack of demand.

Sean Wagner, Analyst

Right, right. Okay. And one last quick question. I guess one of the main kind of bear cases, we're hearing are all of the talk of kind of new customers that we've seen over the last 1.5 years and those trends seem to still be strong, but are you starting to see any evidence or expect to see in the next year kind of anybody exiting the lifestyle or trading in their boats? Have you seen any kind of uptick in used boat availability or anything like that?

Brett McGill, CEO

Yes. There has been no increase in the availability of used boats; they remain difficult to find. However, we have seen some great success stories of individuals who purchased last year and are already upgrading this year. This trend is common in our industry when we attract new customers. Additionally, we continue to see new individuals entering the marine sector or becoming customers of MarineMax, with no indications that they are leaving or that the percentage of new customers is decreasing.

Sean Wagner, Analyst

Okay. Thanks a lot.

Operator, Operator

Our next question comes from the line of David MacGregor with Longbow Research. Please proceed with your question.

Joe Nolan, Analyst

Hi. This is Joe Nolan on for David.

Brett McGill, CEO

Hi Joe.

Joe Nolan, Analyst

I was just hoping that you could talk about the impact that acquisitions had on gross margins in the quarter. And then along with that if you could talk about the supply channel for your recent acquisitions and just that they're dealing with relatively similar supply constraints?

Mike McLamb, CFO

Hey Joe, we have a bit of a bad connection. I think your first question was on the impact of acquisitions on gross margins. And I would comment that the acquisitions we made a number of years ago, Fraser Northrop & Johnson either a year ago or two years ago, were great drivers of the margin growth. They contribute about half of the overall gross margin growth in the quarter. Cruises would have had a contribution, but it would have been not as significant as the Fraser and the Northrop & Johnson. And then Nisswa that we merged with on July one because of their larger service and storage business profile they would have contributed some as well. But as we mentioned on the call, half the margin increase was Fraser Northrop & Johnson. The rest of it was really the expansion of all of our higher margin businesses. And I may not have heard the other parts of your questions.

Brett McGill, CEO

Yes. On the recent acquisitions you asked about the supply chain constraints. And I think I would categorize that as we're seeing the same thing that the industry is seeing. It's hit or miss your daily battle to get through it and try to get the boat completed and help our stores out.

Joe Nolan, Analyst

Well, thanks. I will pass on.

Brett McGill, CEO

Thank you, Joe.

Operator, Operator

There are no further questions in the queue. I'd like to hand the call back to Brett McGill for closing remarks.

Brett McGill, CEO

Well, thank you everybody for joining the call today. And both Mike and I are available if you have any additional questions and we're looking forward to updating you on our progress on our next call. Have a great day.

Operator, Operator

Ladies and gentlemen this does conclude today's conference. Thank you for your participation. You may disconnect your lines at this time and have a wonderful day.
