LATHAM, N.Y. – August 5, 2025 – 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 second quarter 2025 ended June 28, 2025.

Commenting on the results, Scott Rajeski, President and CEO, said, "Our second quarter performance demonstrated the continued execution of our strategy to drive awareness and adoption of fiberglass pools and autocovers, expand our presence in the Sand State markets, and improve margins through lean manufacturing and value engineering initiatives and accretive acquisitions.

"We achieved strong second quarter net sales growth despite challenging market conditions, highlighting the diversity of our portfolio and Latham's leading position in each of our product lines. In fiberglass pools, we strengthened our leadership through targeted marketing programs, which drove substantial year-over-year growth in both leads for our dealers and in consumer sessions on our website. Consumer recognition of the advantages of fiberglass pools, such as cost-efficiency, fast and easy installation, low maintenance requirements, and eco-friendliness continues to build, and our fiberglass pool sales are on track to represent approximately 75% of the Company's full-year 2025 in-ground pool sales. In the Sand States – where driving fiberglass adoption remains a strategic priority – we added a considerable number of new dealers during the quarter. Additionally, our marketing campaigns to increase brand recognition in key target locations have resulted in a substantial increase in website traffic from consumers in those regions.

![](tm2522355d1_ex99-2img002.jpg)

"Latham autocovers continue to gain traction as consumers increasingly value their unparalleled safety benefits and the significant cost savings they offer through reduced water evaporation, energy use, and chemical consumption, which enables autocovers to effectively pay for themselves within four to five years. Compatible with all types of in-ground pools, autocovers were a significant contributor to our second quarter results. Organic growth in autocovers, together with the acquisition of the Coverstar businesses, drove a 46% increase in cover sales for the period. Liner sales also contributed to second quarter growth, increasing 6% year-over-year. We have seen continued strong momentum in the replacement liner business as a result of our industry-leading lead times and the continued adoption of Measure by Latham, our proprietary AI-powered tool, which is increasingly being used by pool builders for the measurement and installation of pool liners and covers.

"Gross margin expanded by 400 basis points to 37.1% in the quarter, primarily due to higher volumes, operating efficiencies from our ongoing lean manufacturing and value engineering initiatives, and the benefits from our recent autocover acquisitions. Adjusted EBITDA margin expanded by 160 basis points to 23.1%, as our strong gross margin performance more than offset higher selling, general and administrative spending, which was primarily tied to investments in marketing and the execution of our Sand State strategy."

**Second Quarter 2025 Results**

Net sales for the second quarter of 2025 were $172.6 million, up $12.5 million or 7.8%, from $160.1 million in the prior year's second quarter, representing both organic- and acquisition-related growth.

Gross profit for the second quarter of 2025 was $64.0 million, up 20.6% from $53.0 million in the prior year's second quarter. Gross margin of 37.1% expanded by 400 basis points from 33.1% in the year-ago quarter, primarily reflecting higher volumes, lean manufacturing and value engineering initiatives, and the three Coverstar acquisitions.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $31.9 million, an increase of $5.3 million or 20.1%, from $26.6 million in the second quarter of 2024, and were primarily driven by increased marketing and personnel investment tied to our Sand State strategy, investments in new enterprise resource planning ("ERP") infrastructure, and the inclusion of Coverstar Central.

![](tm2522355d1_ex99-2img002.jpg)

Net income was $16.0 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, compared to a net income of $13.3 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, reported for the prior year's second quarter. Net income margin was 9.3% compared to 8.3% for the second quarter of 2024.

Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2025 was $39.9 million, an increase of $5.4 million or 15.7% compared to $34.5 million in the prior year's second quarter. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to gross profit growth from higher sales that more than offset higher selling, general and administrative spending. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 23.1%, 160 basis points above the 21.5% reported in the prior year period.

**Six Months 2025 Results**

Net sales were $284.1 million, up $13.3 million or 4.9%, from $270.8 million in the prior-year period, representing both organic- and acquisition-related growth.

Gross profit was $96.8 million, an increase from $83.6 million in the prior year period. Gross margin expanded by 320 basis points to 34.1% from 30.9% in the prior year period, primarily resulting from higher volumes, our lean manufacturing and value engineering initiatives, and a margin benefit from the three Coverstar acquisitions.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased to $62.6 million, up $9.8 million or 18.4%, from $52.8 million in the prior year period, and were primarily driven by increased marketing and personnel investment tied to our Sand State strategy, investments in new ERP infrastructure, and the inclusion of Coverstar Central.

Net income was $10.0 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, as compared to a net income of $5.4 million, or $0.05 per diluted share in the prior year period. Net income margin was 3.5% compared to 2.0% in the prior year period.

Adjusted EBITDA was $51.0 million, up $4.2 million or 9.1% from $46.8 million in the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 18.0%, a 70-basis-point increase from 17.3% in the prior year period.

**Balance Sheet, Cash Flow, and Liquidity**

Latham ended the second quarter of 2025 with cash of $26.9 million. Net cash provided by operating activities was $36.0 million in the second quarter and, in the first half of 2025, net cash used in operating activities was $10.9 million.

Total debt was $281.5 million at the end of the second quarter, and the net debt leverage ratio was 3.0.

Capital expenditures totaled $6.8 million in the second quarter of 2025, compared to $4.5 million in the second quarter of 2024. First half capital expenditures were $10.3 million, compared to $9.8 million in the first half of 2024.

![](tm2522355d1_ex99-2img002.jpg)

**Summary and Outlook**

"Our second quarter performance underscores Latham's continued ability to outperform the market for new U.S. pool starts, which is supported by our diversified product portfolio and strategic growth initiatives. We continue to project approximately 60,000 new U.S. pool starts in 2025, in line with our original estimates. Even within this challenging market environment, our current order rates support our ability to reaffirm our full-year 2025 guidance, which is outlined in the table below. Our expectations for 8% net sales growth and 19% Adjusted EBITDA growth at the midpoints are primarily driven by category share gains in fiberglass pools, autocovers, and liners, along with contributions from the Coverstar Central acquisition, completed in August 2024, and the early 2025 acquisitions of two of our smaller autocover dealers.

"Latham continues to benefit from key competitive advantages, as we offer the highest-quality products in the industry, have the industry's largest manufacturing footprint, and are leveraging a network of highly skilled and committed dealers and contractors. Amid difficult industry conditions in 2025, we are executing well, staying focused, and positioned to deliver strong year-over-year growth," Mr. Rajeski concluded.

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 (benefit) expense.

**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, 2024. 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 (benefit) expense (iv), (gain) loss 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.

![](tm2522355d1_ex99-2img002.jpg)

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 (benefit) expense, 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.

![](tm2522355d1_ex99-2img002.jpg)

*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.

**Forward-Looking Statements**
