Revenue Analysis 

2017 - 2018

 The chart above illustrates that from 2017 to 2018 MarineMax showing a net revenue increase of 1.112% compared to the fiscal year 2016. The increase is primarily due to a 28% increase in same-store sales growth. “Our strong same-store sales growth was supported by an increase in larger yacht sales, which traditionally carry lower gross margins, impacting our consolidated margins. Historically, when this has occurred, we get good operating expense leverage, resulting in strong earnings growth, like we experienced this quarter," said McGill. Gross profit increased $32.9 million, or 12.4%, to $298.2 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018 from $265.3 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue increased to 25.3% for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018 from 25.2% for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017. MarineMax says it is positioned to benefit from an enhanced presence in the strong Southeastern boating region of North and South Carolina along with Georgia as a result of the recent acquisition of Hall Marine. This acquisition complements MarineMax's 2016 acquisition of Russo Marine in the New England area. 

2018-2019

The chart illustrates an increase of 0.06M, a 5.08% growth from 2018-2019. This increase was attributable to a 1% increase in comparable-store sales and an approximate $44.4M net increase related to stores opened or closed that were not eligible for inclusion in the comparable-store base. The comparable-store sales is mainly due to incremental increases with new and used boat sales and storage services finance and insurance products, service revenue, as well as parts revenue. Interest expense increased $1.7 million, or 16.9%, to $11.6 million. Gross profit increased 8.2%, or $24.6M. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of revenue was primarily the result of increases to higher margins businesses and from the acquisition of the Fraser Yachts Group because the sales generated by Fraser relating to its services tend to be of higher margins relative to our overall business. The increase in gross profit dollars was primarily attributable to the increase in our gross margins and increased boat sales, says marinemax’s 2018 10-K report. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $27.3 million, or 11.6%, to $262.3 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2019. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily attributable to recent acquisitions including the Fraser Yachts Group, new store openings, additional marketing expenses to drive sales growth, and the reestablishing of our british Virgin islands’ Charter business as the business restarted operations after Hurricane irma, which occurred in September 2017.

2019-2020 

As illustrated in the chart above, there was a revenue increase of $272.6 million, or 22.0%, to approximately $1.510 billion for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2020 according to the 2020 10-K report. “Attributable to a 25% increase in comparable-store sales and an approximate $18.4 million net decrease related to stores opened or closed that were not eligible for inclusion in the comparable-store base”, stated the 2020 10-K report. The increase in the comparable-store sales was mainly due to incremental increases in new and used boat sales and incremental increases in storage services, finance and insurance products, and brokerage sales. Having an improved industry condition in the seasonal summer months contributed to MarineMax’s growth. Their gross profit increased by $75.9 million, or 23.5%, to $398.7 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2020 from $322.8 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2019. Gross profit increased to 26.4% for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2020 from 26.1% for the fiscal year ending on September 30, 2019. The increase is due to increases with their higher margins businesses and from the acquisition of the Fraser Yachts Group and Northrop & Johnson because the sales generated by Fraser and Northrop & Johnson relating to their services tend to be of higher margins relative to their overall business. The increase was primarily attributable to the increase in their gross margins and increased boat sales. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $29.7 million, or 11.3%, to $292.0 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2020 from $262.3 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2019. 

2020-2021

The increase in MareineMax’s comparable-store sales was a result of demand driven increases in new and used boat revenue and our higher margin finance and insurance products, brokerage, parts, service, and storage services. There was a gross profit increase of $260.7 million, or 65.4%, to $659.4 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021 from $398.7 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2020. As a percentage of revenue increased to 32.0% for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021 from 26.4% for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2020. The increase is thanks to demand driven price increases resulting in greater new and used boat margins and increases in our higher margin businesses, including MarineMax’s superyacht-services companies, as a percentage of sales. The increase in gross profit dollars was primarily attributable to increased new and used boat sales. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $158.0 million, or 54.1%, to $450.0 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021 from $292.0 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2020.

Interest expense as a percentage of revenue decreased to 0.2% for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021, from 0.6% for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2020. The decrease in interest expense was primarily the result of decreased borrowings.
