LATHAM, N.Y., May 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Latham Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: SWIM), the largest designer, manufacturer, and marketer of in-ground residential swimming pools in North America, Australia, and New Zealand, today announced financial results for the first quarter 2025 ended March 29, 2025.
Commenting on the results, Scott Rajeski, President and CEO, said, “Our first quarter results were in line with our expectations and reflected the relative strength of Latham’s fiberglass pool and autocover product categories and the ongoing benefits from our lean manufacturing and value engineering initiatives.
“Both fiberglass pools and autocovers continue to benefit from increased consumer awareness and adoption, even as the broader pool industry faces challenging conditions. We are particularly pleased with the progress made to-date on our Sand State expansion strategy, which is designed to drive market share gains for Latham in Florida, Texas, Arizona, and California, which represent the majority of new pool starts. Together with our dealers, we are actively engaging in key Master Planned Communities in Florida and Texas, our initial target geographies. Additionally, our “GOOTSA” (Get Out of the Stone Age) ad campaign is active in both states, and we are sponsoring a wide range of community events to drive consumer awareness, increased website traffic and lead generation.
“Ongoing improvements from our lean manufacturing and value engineering initiatives drove a 190-basis point expansion in gross margin in the first quarter. This performance partially offset increased SG&A spending, which was primarily related to the Company’s growth initiatives.”
First Quarter 2025 Results
Net sales for the first quarter of 2025 were $111.4 million, up $0.8 million or 0.7%, from $110.6 million in the prior year’s first quarter, primarily reflecting positive sales momentum at the end of the quarter.

| Fiscal Quarter Ended | |||||||
| March 29, 2025 | March 30, 2024 | ||||||
| In-ground Swimming Pools | $ | 57,734 | $ | 59,832 | |||

| Liners | 22,075 | 23,929 | |||||
| $ | 111,420 | $ | 110,629 | ||||
Gross profit for the first quarter of 2025 was $32.9 million, up $2.3 million or 7.5% from $30.6 million in the prior year’s first quarter. Gross margin of 29.5% expanded by 190 basis points from 27.7% in the year-ago quarter, reflecting lean manufacturing and value engineering initiatives and a margin benefit from the three Coverstar acquisitions.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $30.6 million, an increase of $4.3 million or 16.6%, from $26.3 million in the first quarter of 2024, primarily representing increased spending on sales and marketing to drive future growth, as well as the three Coverstar acquisitions.
Net loss was $6.0 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $7.9 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, reported for the prior year’s first quarter. Net loss margin narrowed to 5.4% compared to 7.1% for the first quarter of 2024.
Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2025 was $11.1 million, $1.2 million or 9.4% below the $12.3 million in the prior year’s first quarter. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to increased investment in sales and marketing programs, partially offset by the benefits from lean manufacturing and value engineering initiatives. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 10.0%, 110 basis points below the 11.1% reported in the prior year period.
Balance Sheet, Cash Flow, and Liquidity
Latham ended the first quarter of 2025 with cash of $24.0 million. Net cash used in operating activities was $46.9 million, representing seasonal working capital requirements in line with the Company’s expectations.
Total debt was $306.9 million at the end of the first quarter, and the net debt leverage ratio was 3.6.
Capital expenditures totaled $3.5 million in the first quarter of 2025, compared to $5.3 million in the first quarter of 2024.
Summary and Outlook
“We are pleased that first quarter results were aligned with our expectations and have put us on track to achieve our full year guidance. After a few slow weeks in early January, we saw a nice sequential pick up of business activity in March, supporting our expectation for progressively higher year-on-year comparisons during the typically stronger second and third quarters of the year. At the same time, we remain cautious on 2025 new pool starts, which we currently project to be roughly in line with 2024 levels. Additionally, we are closely monitoring the impact of elevated tariffs on imported raw materials. Imports represent approximately 15-20% of the raw materials used in our manufacturing process, so our exposure is relatively limited. While tariff-related uncertainty remains, we are confident in our ability to offset raw material cost increases through strategic pre-purchasing and operational adjustments. Additionally, we recently implemented targeted price increases on certain products to help mitigate the impact of tariffs.
“Based on our current business trends reflecting the seasonal ramp-up in Q1 and early Q2, we are maintaining our full year 2025 guidance as outlined in the table below, which represents year-on-year sales growth of 8% at the midpoint. This expectation is primarily driven by category share gains in fiberglass pools and autocovers, along with contributions from the Coverstar Central acquisition in August 2024 and the early 2025 acquisitions of two of our smaller autocover dealers. Adjusted EBITDA growth of 19% at the midpoint reflects the significant operating leverage inherent in our business model, while also accounting for increased investment in growth initiatives,” Mr. Rajeski concluded.
| FY 2025 Guidance Ranges | ||
| Low | High | |
| Net Sales | $535 million | $565 million |
| Adjusted EBITDA1 | $90 million | $100 million |
| Capital Expenditures | $27 million | $33 million |
| 1) | A reconciliation of Latham’s projected Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss) for 2025 is not available without unreasonable effort due to uncertainty related to our future income tax expense (benefit). |

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We track our non-GAAP financial measures to monitor and manage our underlying financial performance. This news release includes the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, net debt and net debt leverage ratio, on a historical and pro forma basis, which are non-GAAP financial measures that exclude the impact of certain costs, losses, and gains that are required to be included under GAAP. Our pro forma presentation gives effect to the Coverstar Central acquisition as if it occurred as of January 1, 2023. Although we believe these measures are useful to investors and analysts for the same reasons it is useful to management, as discussed below, these measures are neither a substitute for, nor superior to, U.S. GAAP financial measures or disclosures. Other companies may calculate similarly-titled non-GAAP measures differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. In addition, our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed to imply that our future results will be unaffected by any such adjustments. We have reconciled our historic non-GAAP financial measures to the applicable most comparable GAAP measures in this news release.
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are key metrics used by management and our board of directors to assess our financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are also frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry, when considered alongside other GAAP measures. We use Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin to supplement GAAP measures of performance to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies, to make budgeting decisions, to utilize as a significant performance metric in our incentive compensation plans, and to compare our performance against that of other companies using similar measures. We have presented Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin solely as supplemental disclosures because we believe they allow for a more complete analysis of results of operations and assist investors and analysts in comparing our operating performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance, such as (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) interest expense, net, (iii) income tax expense (benefit), (iv) loss (gain) on sale and disposal of property and equipment, (v) restructuring charges, (vi) stock-based compensation expense, (vii) unrealized (gains) losses on foreign currency transactions, (viii) strategic initiative costs, (ix) acquisition and integration related costs and (x) other.
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are non-GAAP financial measures and should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss) as a measure of financial performance or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, and they should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. You are encouraged to evaluate these adjustments and the reasons we consider them appropriate for supplemental analysis. In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in this news release. There can be no assurance that we will not modify the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin in the future, and any such modification may be material. In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, may not calculate Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin at all or may calculate Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin differently and accordingly, are not necessarily comparable to similarly entitled measures of other companies, which reduces the usefulness of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin as tools for comparison.
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin have their limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin:
- do not reflect every expenditure, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
- do not reflect changes in our working capital needs;
- do not reflect the interest expense, net, or the amounts necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our outstanding debt;
- do not reflect income tax expense (benefit), and because the payment of taxes is part of our operations, tax expense is a necessary element of our costs and ability to operate;
- do not reflect non-cash stock-based compensation, which will remain a key element of our overall compensation package; and
- do not reflect the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations.
Although depreciation and amortization are eliminated in the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin do not reflect any costs of such replacements.
Net Debt and Net Debt Leverage Ratio
Net Debt and Net Debt Leverage Ratio are non-GAAP financial measures used in monitoring and evaluating our overall liquidity, financial flexibility, and leverage. Other companies may calculate similarly titled non-GAAP measures differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. We define Net Debt as total debt less cash and cash equivalents. We define the Net Debt Leverage Ratio as Net Debt divided by last twelve months (“LTM”) of Adjusted EBITDA. We believe this measure is an important indicator of our ability to service our long-term debt obligations. There are material limitations to using Net Debt Leverage Ratio as we may not always be able to use cash to repay debt on a dollar-for-dollar basis.
