MARINEMAX REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER AND FISCAL 2009 RESULTS
~ Reports Significant Reductions in Inventory and Related Debt Levels ~
CLEARWATER, FL, November 5, 2009 – MarineMax, Inc. (NYSE: HZO), the nation’s largest recreational boat retailer, today announced results for its fourth quarter and fiscal year ended September 30, 2009.
Fiscal Fourth Quarter Results
Revenue was $207.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2009, an increase of 25% compared with $165.6 million for the comparable quarter last year. Same-store sales increased approximately 41% compared with a 45% decline in the comparable quarter last year. Revenue from stores recently closed that were not eligible for inclusion in the same-store sales base was $15.4 million. The net loss for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009 was $33.0 million, or $1.72 per share, compared with a net loss of $11.1 million, or $0.60 per share, for the comparable quarter last year.
Included in the fourth quarter fiscal 2009 net loss was approximately $2.8 million, or $0.15 per share, associated with store closing costs, as well as $6.6 million, or $0.34 per share, for incurred losses and increases in inventory reserves for brands the Company no longer carries. The Company was unable to record a meaningful tax benefit during the quarter because of loss carry back limitations. Using the Company’s approximate historical tax rate of 40%, the tax benefit would have reduced the net loss by approximately $0.59 per share. Included in the fourth quarter fiscal 2008 net loss was approximately $1.6 million, or $0.09 per share, of costs associated with store closing costs.
At September 30, 2009, inventory declined 56%, or $262.7 million, to $205.9 million compared to $468.6 million as of September 30, 2008. Short-term borrowings declined 62%, or $230.0 million, to $142.0 million compared to $372.0 million as of September 30, 2008.
During the quarter, the Company’s aggressive inventory reduction strategy drove the substantial increase in same-store sales as well as the decline in the Company’s gross profit margins, which contributed to the reported loss. Also as planned, the Company closed an additional 11 stores during the September quarter, bringing the total store closures to 26 during fiscal 2009. These planned store closures were a key component in the Company’s efforts to better match its fixed costs with the decline in business caused by the soft economic conditions.

Fiscal Year 2009 Results
Revenue was $588.6 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009 compared with $885.4 million for fiscal year 2008. Same-store sales declined approximately 29% compared with a 28% decline for the previous fiscal year. The net loss for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009 was $76.8 million, or $4.11 per share, compared with a net loss of $134.3 million, or $7.30 per share, for fiscal 2008.
The Company’s results for fiscal year ended September 30, 2009 included $6.2 million, or $0.33 per share, of costs associated with store closings, as well as $12.6 million, or $0.67 per share, for incurred losses and increases in inventory reserves for brands the Company no longer represents. The tax benefit for the fiscal year was also reduced by loss carry back limitations, as noted above. Using the Company’s approximate historical tax rate of 40%, the tax benefit would have reduced the net loss by approximately $1.37 per share.
The Company’s results for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2008 included a non-cash charge of $122.1 million before tax, or approximately $6.28 per share, related to the impairment of goodwill and intangibles as well as a valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets. Excluding the non-cash impairment charge, the net loss was $18.8 million, or $1.02 per share, for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2008, using the Company’s historical tax rate of approximately 40%. The loss per share also included $0.09 of store closing costs and $0.08 per share arising from gains related to insurance proceeds received associated with the 2007 damages to the Company’s Missouri facilities, a net gain that resulted from the Company’s retirement of its various mortgage loans and related interest rate swaps, and a gain related to changes in the Company’s benefit plans.
William H. McGill, Jr., Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “Our planned strategy to reduce our inventory levels and strengthen our competitive position was very successful during the fourth quarter. We reported our largest sequential inventory reduction to date, dropping significantly from the June quarter and over $262 million from last year end. Our aggressive pricing strategy successfully reduced inventory levels and produced substantial cash flows from operations, resulting in an increase in same-store sales for the first time in over two years. We believe our September quarter same-store sales growth well outpaced our industry, yielding market share gains. While our aggressive pricing strategy helped to drive sales, we were encouraged to see how well our existing and new customers responded in this economic environment.”
Mr. McGill, continued, “Our inventory and cost reduction strategy allowed us to generate over $200 million of cash flows from operations during fiscal 2009 and significantly reduce our outstanding borrowings, further strengthening our financial position. Our key balance sheet ratios improved significantly year-over year. We believe that the actions we have taken to lower our expense structure, streamline our store footprint, and reduce our inventory levels positions us to achieve improved operating margins and take advantage of growth opportunities in the future. We are encouraged to see so many families seeking the MarineMax lifestyle of boating and the strength of their passion for this great recreation.”
