Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

1. NATURE OF THE BUSINESS

Latham Group, Inc. (the “Company” or “Latham”) wholly owns Latham Pool Products, Inc. (“Latham Pool Products”), a designer, manufacturer, and marketer of in-ground residential swimming pools in North America, Australia, and New Zealand. Latham Pool Products offers a portfolio of pools and related products, including in-ground swimming pools, pool covers, and pool liners.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Unaudited Interim Financial Information

The unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2024 was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 29, 2025 and for the fiscal quarters ended March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024, respectively, have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with Latham Group, Inc.’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 included in the Company’s 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 5, 2025 (the “Annual Report”). In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of these condensed consolidated financial statements, have been included. The Company’s results of operations for the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025 or other interim periods thereof.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, known trends, and other market-specific or other relevant factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Estimates are evaluated on an ongoing basis and revised as there are changes in circumstances, facts, and experience. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known.

Seasonality

Although the Company generally has demand for its products throughout the year, its business is seasonal and weather is one of the principal external factors affecting the business. In general, net sales and net income are highest (or net loss is the lowest) during the second and third quarters, representing the peak months of swimming pool use, pool installation, and remodeling and repair activities. Severe weather may also affect net sales in all periods.

Significant Accounting Policies

Refer to the Annual Report for a discussion of the Company’s significant accounting policies, as updated below.

Table of Contents

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

The Company qualifies as “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 and has elected to “opt in” to the extended transition related to complying with new or revised accounting standards, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public and nonpublic companies, the Company will adopt the new or revised standard at the time nonpublic companies adopt the new or revised standard and will do so until such time that the Company either (i) irrevocably elects to “opt out” of such extended transition period or (ii) no longer qualifies as an emerging growth company. The Company may choose to early adopt any new or revised accounting standards whenever such early adoption is permitted for private companies.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”), in an effort to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. For all entities, ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The amendments should be applied prospectively with retrospective application permitted. Early adoption is also permitted. The Company is currently evaluating ASU 2023-09 and its potential impact on the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40) (“ASU 2024-03”), which improves disclosures to provide more detailed information about a business entity’s expenses. ASU 2024-03 is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026. The amendments should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating ASU 2024-03 and its potential impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”), requiring public entities to disclose information about their reportable segments’ significant expenses and other segment items on an interim and annual basis. Public entities with a single reportable segment are required to apply the disclosure requirements in ASU 2023-07, as well as all existing segment disclosures and reconciliation requirements in ASC 280 on an interim and annual basis. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 during the year ended December 31, 2024. See Note 15 for further detail.

In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-01, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope Application of Profits Interest and Similar Awards (“ASU 2024-01”), which improves financial reporting by providing clarity on when an entity should apply the scope guidance in paragraph 718-10-15-3. ASU 2024-01 is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025. The amendments should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements, with early adoption permitted. Adoption of the new standard did not have an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

3.ACQUISITIONS

Coverstar Central, LLC

On August 2, 2024 (the “Acquisition Date”), Latham Pool Products acquired Coverstar Central, LLC (“Coverstar Central”) for total consideration of $71.5 million (the “Coverstar Central Acquisition”). The total consideration included $66.5 million in cash (including a net working capital adjustment of $1.2 million) and a non-cash settlement of preexisting obligations of $4.9 million. Preexisting relationships are effectively settled since such a relationship becomes intercompany upon the acquisition and is eliminated in post-combination financial statements. The cash consideration was funded with cash on hand. The Company incurred $0.9 million in transaction costs. The results of Coverstar Central’s operations have been included in the condensed consolidated financial statements since that date. Coverstar Central is an automatic safety cover dealer based in the United States. The acquisition allows for vertical integration of the Company’s automatic safety cover product category. Additionally, the acquisition provides the Company with an increase in dealer and franchise relationships.

The Company accounted for the Coverstar Central Acquisition using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with FASB ASC 805, Business Combinations. This requires that the assets acquired and liabilities assumed be measured at fair value. Inventories were valued using the comparative sales method. Specific to intangible assets, backlog and customer relationships were valued using the multi-period excess earnings method. The Company recorded the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their respective fair values as of the Acquisition Date. The fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed recorded in the condensed consolidated financial statements may be subject to adjustment pending completion of final evaluation. These fair value estimates will be reevaluated and adjusted, if needed, during the measurement period of up to one year from the Acquisition Date, and recorded as adjustments to goodwill.

The following summarizes the purchase price allocation for the Company’s acquisition of Coverstar Central:


(in thousands)	August 2, 2024
Total consideration	$	71,516
Allocation:
Cash		2,084
Trade receivables		7,020
Inventories		4,293
Prepaid expenses and other current assets		53
Property and equipment		344
Intangible assets		38,220
Deferred tax assets		43
Total assets acquired, excluding goodwill		52,057
Accounts payable		131
Accrued expenses and other current liabilities		2,457
Total liabilities assumed		2,588
Total fair value of net assets acquired, excluding goodwill		49,469
Goodwill	$	22,047

The excess of the total consideration over the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed in the acquisition was allocated to goodwill in the amount of $22.0 million. Goodwill resulting from the acquisition was attributable to vertical integration, the expanded market share and broader geographical footprint. The goodwill recognized is deductible for tax purposes.

The Company allocated a portion of the total consideration to specific intangible asset categories as follows:


	Fair Value		Amortization
Definite-lived intangible assets:	(in thousands)		Period (in years)
Dealer relationships	$	37,800	13
Order backlog		420	1

Pro Forma Financial Information (Unaudited)

The following pro forma financial information presents the statements of operations of the Company with Coverstar Central as if the acquisition occurred on January 1, 2024. The pro forma results do not include any anticipated synergies, cost savings or other expected benefits of the acquisition. The pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of what the financial results would have been had the acquisition been completed on January 1, 2024 and is not necessarily indicative of the Company’s future financial results.



	Fiscal Quarter Ended
	March 29,		March 30,
(in thousands)	2025		2024
Net sales	$	111,420	$	111,584
Net loss		(6,270)		(6,428)

The pro forma financial information presented above reflects the effects as a result of the acquisition, including the amortization expense from acquired intangible assets, the additional cost of sales from acquired inventory, the elimination of intercompany transactions and the removal of certain costs (primarily payroll costs) that would not have occurred and any related tax effects. Transaction costs for Coverstar Central are reflected within pro forma net loss for the fiscal quarter ended March 30, 2024.

Other Business Combinations

During the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025, the Company completed the acquisition of two autocover dealers located in New York and Tennessee that qualified as a business combination. This transaction resulted in an increase to goodwill and intangibles, but was not material to our condensed consolidated financial statements, and as a result, additional business combination disclosures for this acquisition have been omitted.

4. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. To increase the comparability of fair value measures, the following hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation methodologies used to measure fair value.

Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 — Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly.

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions incorporated into valuation techniques. These valuations require significant judgment.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. When there is more than one input at different levels within the hierarchy, the fair value is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires substantial judgment and consideration of factors specific to the asset or liability. Level 3 inputs are inherently difficult to estimate. Changes to these inputs can have significant impact on fair value measurements. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value using Level 3 inputs are based on one or more of the following valuation techniques: market approach, income approach or cost approach. There were no transfers between fair value measurement levels during the fiscal quarters ended March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis

The Company’s non-financial assets such as goodwill, intangible assets, and property and equipment are measured at fair value upon acquisition and remeasured to fair value when an impairment charge is recognized. Such fair value measurements are based predominantly on Level 2 and Level 3 inputs.

Table of Contents

Fair value of financial instruments

The Company considers the carrying amounts of cash, trade receivables, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, and accrued expenses and other current liabilities to approximate fair value because of the short-term maturities of these instruments.

Term loans

Term loans are carried at amortized cost; however, the Company estimates the fair value of term loans for disclosure purposes. The fair value of a term loan is determined using inputs based on observable market data of a non-public exchange, which are classified as Level 2 inputs. The following table sets forth the carrying amount and fair value of the term loans (in thousands):



	March 29, 2025				December 31, 2024
	Carrying		Estimated		Carrying		Estimated
	Value		Fair Value		Value		Fair Value
Term Loan	$	281,913	$	272,046	$	281,521	$	276,946

Interest rate swap

The Company estimates the fair value of the interest rate swap on a quarterly basis using Level 2 inputs, including the forward SOFR curve. The fair value is estimated by comparing (i) the present value of all future monthly fixed rate payments versus (ii) the variable payments based on the forward SOFR curve. As of March 29, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company’s interest rate swap was a liability of $0.7 million and $0.4 million, respectively, which were recorded within other long-term liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

5. GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS, NET

Goodwill

The carrying amount of goodwill as of March 29, 2025 and as of December 31, 2024 was $154.7 million and $152.6 million, respectively. The change in the carrying value during the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025 was primarily driven by acquisitions made in the first fiscal quarter of 2025.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets, net as of March 29, 2025 consisted of the following (in thousands):


	March 29, 2025

On February 23, 2022, Latham Pool Products and certain subsidiary guarantors entered into a credit and guaranty agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Barclays Bank PLC, which provides a senior secured multicurrency revolving line of credit (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) in an initial principal amount of $75.0 million and a U.S. Dollar senior secured term loan facility (the “Term Loan”) in an initial principal amount of $325.0 million.

Table of Contents

The Company is required to meet certain financial covenants, including maintaining specific liquidity measurements. There are also negative covenants, including certain restrictions on the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, create liens, make investments, consolidate or merge with other entities, enter into transactions with affiliates, make prepayments with respect to certain indebtedness and make restricted payments and other distributions. As of March 29, 2025, the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants under the Credit Agreement.

Revolving Credit Facility

The Revolving Credit Facility may be utilized to finance ongoing general corporate and working capital needs and permits Latham Pool Products to borrow loans in U.S. Dollars, Canadian Dollars, Euros and Australian Dollars. The Revolving Credit Facility matures on February 23, 2027. Loans outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility denominated in U.S. Dollars and Canadian Dollars bear interest, at the borrower’s option, at a rate per annum based on Term SOFR or CDO (each, as defined in the Credit Agreement), as applicable, plus a margin of 3.50%, or at a rate per annum based on the Base Rate or the Canadian Prime Rate (each, as defined in the Credit Agreement), plus a margin of 2.50%. Loans outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility denominated in Euros or Australian Dollars bear interest based on EURIBOR or the AUD Rate (each, as defined in the Credit Agreement), respectively, plus a margin of 3.50%. A commitment fee accrues on any unused portion of the commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility. The commitment fee is due and payable quarterly in arrears, and initially was 0.375% per annum and thereafter accrues at a rate per annum ranging from 0.25% to 0.50%, depending on the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement, the “First Lien Net Leverage Ratio”). Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility are not subject to amortization and are due at maturity.

The Company incurred debt issuance costs of $0.8 million related to the Revolving Credit Facility. The debt issuance costs were recorded within other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheet and are being amortized over the life of the Revolving Credit Facility.

As of March 29, 2025, there was $25.0 million of outstanding borrowings on the Revolving Credit Facility and $50.0 million was available for future borrowing.

Term Loan

Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, Latham Pool Products borrowed $325.0 million in term loans. The Term Loan matures on February 23, 2029. Loans outstanding under the Term Loan bear interest, at the borrower’s option, at a rate per annum based on Term SOFR (as defined in the Credit Agreement), plus a margin ranging from 3.75% to 4.00%, depending on the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, or based on the Base Rate (each, as defined in the Credit Agreement), plus a margin ranging from 2.75% to 3.00%, depending on the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio. Loans under the Term Loan are subject to scheduled quarterly amortization payments of $812,500, equal to 0.25% of the initial principal amount of the Term Loan. The Term Loan contains customary mandatory prepayment provisions, including requirements to make mandatory prepayments with 50% of any excess cash flow and with 100% of the net cash proceeds from the incurrence of indebtedness not otherwise permitted to be incurred by the covenants, asset sales, and casualty and condemnation events, in each case, subject to customary exceptions.

During the fiscal quarter ended March 30, 2024, the Company made a pre-payment of $18.0 million in addition to the required annual payments of $3.3 million. No additional pre-payments are expected to be made during the year ending December 31, 2025.

Outstanding borrowings as of March 29, 2025 were $281.9 million, net of discount and debt issuance costs of $6.2 million. In connection with the Term Loan, the Company is subject to various negative, reporting, financial, and other covenants, including maintaining specific liquidity measurements.

As of March 29, 2025, the unamortized debt issuance costs and discount on the Term Loan were $3.4 million and $2.7 million, respectively. The effective interest rate was 9.31% at March 29, 2025, including the impact of the Company’s interest rate swap.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk associated with the Credit Agreement is mitigated partially through an interest rate swap.

Table of Contents

The Company entered into an interest rate swap that was executed on March 10, 2023. The swap has an effective date of May 18, 2023 and a termination date of May 18, 2026. Under the terms of the swap, the Company fixed its SOFR borrowing rate at 4.3725% on a notional amount of $161.0 million. The interest rate swap is not designated as a hedging instrument for accounting purposes (see Note 4).

Debt Maturities

Principal payments due on the outstanding debt, excluding the Revolving Credit Facility, in the next five fiscal years, excluding any potential payments based on excess cash flow levels, are as follows (in thousands):



Fiscal Year Ending	Term Loan
Remainder of fiscal year 2025	$	3,250
2026		3,250
2027		3,250
2028		3,250
2029		275,063
	$	288,063

Guarantees

The obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by certain wholly owned subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”) of the Company that are party to that certain security agreement, which was executed in connection with the Credit Agreement. The obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of the Guarantors’ tangible and intangible assets, including their accounts receivables, equipment, intellectual property, inventory, cash and cash equivalents, deposit accounts, and security accounts. The Credit Agreement also restricts payments and other distributions unless certain conditions are met, which could restrict the Company’s ability to pay dividends. The ownership chain between Latham Pool Products and the Company consists of a series of holding companies with no material assets, liabilities, or standalone operations other than indirect equity interests in Latham Pool Products.

9. LEASES

For leases with initial terms greater than 12 months, the Company considers these right-of-use assets and records the related asset and obligation at the present value of lease payments over the term. For leases with initial terms equal to or less than 12 months, the Company does not consider them as right-of-use assets and instead considers them short-term lease costs that are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company’s leases may include escalation clauses, renewal options, and/or termination options that are factored into the Company’s determination of lease term and lease payments when it is reasonably certain the option will be exercised. The Company elected to take the practical expedient and not separate lease and non-lease components of contracts. The Company estimates an incremental borrowing rate to discount the lease payments based on information available at lease commencement because the implicit rate of the lease is generally not known.

The Company leases manufacturing facilities, office space, land, and certain vehicles and equipment under operating leases. The Company also leases certain vehicles and equipment under finance leases. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. A contract is or contains a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

11. INCOME TAXES

The effective income tax rate for the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025 was 40.6% compared to (7.2)% for the fiscal quarter ended March 30, 2024. The differences between the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate and the Company’s effective income tax rates for the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025 and the fiscal quarter ended March 30, 2024 were primarily attributable to the discrete impact of stock-based compensation expense for which there is no associated tax benefit and the effects of branch accounting for Latham Canada.

12. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Repurchase Program

On May 10, 2022, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) approved a stock repurchase program (the “Repurchase Program”), which authorizes the Company to repurchase up to $100 million of the Company’s shares of common stock by May 2025. The Company may effect these repurchases in open market transactions, privately negotiated purchases, or other acquisitions. The Company is not obligated to repurchase any of its shares of its common stock under the Repurchase Program and the timing and amount of any repurchases will depend on market conditions, the Company’s stock price, alternative uses of capital, the terms of the Company’s debt instruments, and other factors.

As of March 29, 2025, $77.0 million remained available for share repurchases pursuant to the Repurchase Program. The Company did not repurchase any shares of its common stock during the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025. The Company accounts for the excess of the repurchase price over the par value of shares acquired as a reduction to additional paid-in capital.

13. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

On April 12, 2021, the Company’s stockholders approved the Latham Group, Inc. 2021 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 Omnibus Equity Plan”), which became effective on April 22, 2021. The 2021 Omnibus Equity Plan provides for the issuance of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance stock units and other stock-based and cash-based awards. The maximum grant date fair value of cash and equity awards that may be awarded to a non-employee director under the 2021 Omnibus Equity Plan during any one fiscal year, together with any cash fees paid to such non-employee director during such fiscal year, is $750,000.

Table of Contents

On May 2, 2023, at the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders of the Company, the stockholders approved the first amendment (the “Equity Plan First Amendment”) to the 2021 Omnibus Equity Plan, which was previously approved by the Board. The Equity Plan First Amendment became effective upon stockholder approval, and provides for (i) an increase by 8,000,000 shares of the share pool, i.e. the maximum number of shares of the Company’s common stock that may be issued pursuant to awards granted under the 2021 Omnibus Equity Plan, (ii) a prohibition on recycling of shares withheld or remitted to pay taxes for all awards, (iii) a minimum vesting period of one year for all awards, with an exception for shares representing 5% of the share pool, and (iv) a prohibition on the transfer of stock options and stock appreciation rights for value or to third-party financial institutions without stockholder approval.

Except as amended by the Equity Plan First Amendment, the other terms of the 2021 Omnibus Equity Plan remain in full force and effect. Subsequent to the Equity Plan First Amendment, the maximum aggregate number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2021 Omnibus Equity Plan is 21,170,212 shares.

The following table summarizes the Company’s stock-based compensation expense (in thousands):

Performance Stock Units

During the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025 the Compensation Committee of the Board approved the grant of performance stock units (“PSUs”) as a portion of the annual equity award to the Company’s executive officers.

Thirty-three percent of the target number of PSUs awarded on the date of grant will be earned annually at 0% to 200% of the target number of PSUs based on the Company’s achievement of Adjusted EBITDA (with 100% of PSUs being earned at target performance, and linear interpolation between threshold and target and maximum performance) as defined in the award agreement, for each year of the three-year performance period beginning January 1, 2025 and ending December 31, 2027. Any earned PSUs cliff vest on the third anniversary of the grant date. Adjusted EBITDA is considered a performance condition and the grant date fair value corresponds with management’s expectation of the probable outcome of the performance condition as of the grant date. The grant date fair value is determined based on the fair market value of the Company’s stock at market close on the grant date multiplied by the target number of shares subject to the award and adjusted for management's expectation of the probable outcome of the performance condition. The probability of achieving the performance criteria is assessed quarterly during the performance period. Compensation expense related to unvested PSUs is recognized ratably over the performance period.

The following table represents the Company’s PSU activity during the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025:


			Weighted-
			Average

15. SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company conducts business as one operating and reportable segment that designs, manufactures, and markets in-ground swimming pools, pool covers, and pool liners. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer, who is the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of assessing financial performance and allocating resources.

The Company reports consolidated net income (loss), as management believes that is the measure most consistent with the measurement principles in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. Consolidated net income (loss) is used by the CODM predominantly in the annual budget and forecasting, including consideration of budget-to-actual variances when making decisions about the allocation of operating and capital resources.

Overview

We are the largest designer, manufacturer, and marketer of in-ground residential swimming pools in North America, Australia, and New Zealand. We hold the leading position in North America in every product category in which we compete. It is our view that we are the most sought-after brand in the pool industry and the only pool company that has established a direct relationship with the homeowner. We are Latham, The Pool Company.

With an operating history that spans over 65 years, we offer the industry’s broadest portfolio of pools and related products, including in-ground swimming pools, pool covers, and pool liners.

We have a heritage of innovation. In an industry that has traditionally marketed on a business-to-business basis (pool manufacturer to dealer), we pioneered the first “direct-to-homeowner” digital and social marketing strategy that has transformed the homeowner’s purchase journey. Through this marketing strategy, we are able to create demand for our pools and to provide high quality, purchase-ready consumer leads to our dealer partners.

Partnership with our dealers is integral to our collective success, and we have enjoyed long-tenured relationships averaging over 14 years. We support our dealer network with business development tools and co-branded marketing programs.

The full resources of our company are dedicated to designing and manufacturing high-quality pool products, with the homeowner in mind, and positioning ourselves as a value-added partner to our dealers.

We conduct our business as one operating and reportable segment that designs, manufactures, and markets in-ground swimming pools, pool covers, and pool liners.

Our operations consist of approximately 1,800 employees across about 30 locations. The broad geographic reach of our national manufacturing and distribution network allows us to service our customers on short lead times and to deliver our products in a cost-effective manner. Our mission is to design and manufacture high-quality pool products, with the homeowner in mind, and to be a value-added partner to our dealers.

Business Update

Based on our current business trends reflecting the seasonal ramp-up orders in the later part of the first fiscal quarter, our results of operations for the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025 were aligned with our expectations. These results were 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. The seasonal ramp-up in orders began in late March, supporting our expectation for progressively higher year-on-year comparisons during the typically stronger second and third fiscal 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 potential impact of current macroeconomic and geopolitical conditions, including the global trade environment and elevated tariffs on imported raw materials, as well as general reduced consumer confidence and increased economic uncertainty. Imports represent approximately 15-20% of the raw materials used in our manufacturing process, so our exposure to additional recently implemented tariffs is relatively limited. While global trade and economic 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 further mitigate the potential impact of tariffs.

We continue to make progress executing our strategy to drive adoption and awareness of fiberglass pools and automatic safety covers and gain additional operating efficiencies through value engineering and lean manufacturing initiatives. We continue to take a disciplined approach to capital investments, with the focus on product innovation, facility upgrades and technology and systems. These initiatives complement continued investment in our sales, marketing, engineering and research and development efforts that are designed to accelerate conversion to fiberglass pool products and ongoing digital transformation programs.

Strategic Acquisition

Strategic transactions continue to be part of our growth strategy. On August 2, 2024, we completed a stock acquisition of Coverstar Central, our exclusive dealer of automatic safety covers in 29 states – mainly in the center of the U.S. Coverstar Central has been our trusted partner since 2006, and this acquisition represents a valuable strategic opportunity that we expect to benefit from in multiple ways. First, the vertical integration of our automatic safety cover product line in the acquired geographies is expected to increase margins. Second, as one company with a fully integrated sales and marketing strategy, we expect to accelerate the sales growth of this product line. Finally, we see opportunities to leverage Coverstar Central’s long-standing relationships with pool builders in its markets to increase the awareness of, and conversion to, fiberglass pools. During the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025, we further strengthened our position in this growing category by acquiring two of our smaller autocover dealers located in Tennessee and New York.

Key Performance Indicators

Net Sales

We derive our revenue from the design, manufacture, and sale of in-ground swimming pools, pool covers, and pool liners. We sell fiberglass pools, which are one-piece manufactured fiberglass pools that are ready to be installed in a consumer’s backyard, and custom vinyl pools, which are manufactured pools that are made out of non-corrosive steel, or composite polymer frame, on top of which a vinyl liner is installed. We sell liners for the interior surface of vinyl pools (including pools that were not manufactured by us). We also sell all-season covers, which are winterizing mesh or solid pool covers that protect pools against debris and cold or inclement weather, and automatic safety covers for pools that can be operated with a switch.

Our sales are made through one-step and two-step business-to-business distribution channels. In our one-step distribution channel, we sell our products directly to dealers who, in turn, sell our products to consumers. In our two-step distribution channel, we sell our products to distributors who warehouse our products and sell them on to dealers, who ultimately sell our products to consumers.

Each product shipped is considered to be one performance obligation. With the exception of our extended service warranties and our custom product contracts, we recognize our revenue when control of our promised goods is transferred to our customers (dealer in one-step distribution channel or distributor in two-step distribution channel), either upon shipment or arrival at our customer’s destination depending upon the terms of the purchase order. Sales are recognized net of any estimated rebates, returns, allowances, cash discounts, or other sales incentives. Revenue that is derived from our extended service warranties, which are separately priced and sold, is recognized over the term of the contracts. Revenue from custom products is recognized over time utilizing an input method that compares the cost of cumulative work-in-process to date to the most current estimates for the entire cost of the performance obligation.

Gross Margin

Gross margin is gross profit as a percentage of our net sales. Gross margin depends upon several factors, such as the prices we charge buyers, changes in prices of raw materials, the volume and relative sales mix among product lines, and plant performance, among other factors. Gross margin is also impacted by the costs of distribution and occupancy costs, which can vary.

Our gross profit is variable in nature and generally follows changes in net sales. The components of our cost of sales may not be comparable to the components of cost of sales or similar measures of other companies. As a result, our gross profit and gross margin may not be comparable to similar data made available by other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are key metrics used by management and our Board 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 annual management incentive bonus plan compensation, 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.

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 presentation. 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. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin should not be construed to imply that our future results will be unaffected by any such adjustments. 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.

We believe Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are useful measurements for investors as they help identify underlying trends that could otherwise be masked by certain expenses that we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance. We also use Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin for planning purposes, assessing our financial performance, and other strategic decisions. For a discussion of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin and the limitations on their use, and the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, and our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA margin see “— Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below.

Net Sales

Net sales were $111.4 million for the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025, compared to $110.6 million for the fiscal quarter ended March 30, 2024. The $0.8 million, or 0.7%, increase in net sales was due to a $2.4 million increase in sales volume, partially offset by a $1.6 million decrease from lower pricing. The increase in total net sales of $0.8 million across our product lines consisted of an increase of $4.7 million for pool covers, partially offset by decreases of $2.1 million for in-ground swimming pools and $1.8 million for pool liners.

Cost of Sales and Gross Margin

Cost of sales was $78.5 million for the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025, compared to $80.0 million for the fiscal quarter ended March 30, 2024. The $1.5 million, or 1.9%, decrease in cost of sales was primarily the result of the decrease in fixed cost leverage. Gross margin increased by 1.8%, to 29.5% of net sales for the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025, compared to 27.7% of net sales for the fiscal quarter ended March 30, 2024. The 1.8% increase in gross margin was primarily driven by our lean manufacturing and value engineering initiatives and a margin benefit from the three Coverstar acquisitions.

Selling, General, and Administrative Expense

Selling, general, and administrative expense was $30.6 million for the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025, compared to $26.3 million for the fiscal quarter ended March 30, 2024, and increased as a percentage of net sales by 3.6%. The $4.3 million, or 16.6%, increase in selling, general, and administrative expense was primarily driven by increased spending on sales and marketing to drive future growth, as well as the three Coverstar acquisitions.

Amortization

Amortization was $7.2 million for the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025, compared to $6.4 million for the fiscal quarter ended March 30, 2024. The $0.8 million, or 12.2%, increase in amortization was primarily driven by the three Coverstar acquisitions.

Interest Expense, net

Interest expense, net was $6.4 million for the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025, compared to $5.0 million for the fiscal quarter ended March 30, 2024. The $1.4 million, or 27.9%, increase in interest expense, net was primarily the result of the change in the fair value of our interest rate swap, compared to the fiscal quarter ended March 30, 2024, partially offset by a lower effective interest rate.

Other (Income) Expense, Net

Other income, net was $0.3 million for the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025, compared to other expense, net of $1.6 million for fiscal quarter ended March 30, 2024. The $1.9 million increase in other (income) expense, net was primarily driven by a favorable change in net foreign currency transaction gains and losses associated with our international subsidiaries.

Earnings from Equity Method Investment

Earnings from our equity method investment in Premier Pools & Spa were $1.0 million for the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025, compared to $1.3 million for the fiscal quarter ended March 30, 2024 representing the financial performance of Premier Pools & Spa.

Income Tax (Benefit) Expense

Income tax benefit was $4.1 million for the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025, compared to income tax expense of $0.5 million for the fiscal quarter ended March 30, 2024. Our effective tax rate was 40.6% for the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025, compared to (7.2)% for the fiscal quarter ended March 30, 2024. The difference between the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate and our effective income tax rate for both the fiscal quarters ended March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024 was primarily attributable to the discrete impact of stock compensation expense for which there is no associated tax benefit and the effects of branch accounting for Latham Canada.

Net Loss

Net loss was $6.0 million for the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025, compared to $7.9 million for the fiscal quarter ended March 30, 2024. The $1.9 million, or 24.2%, decrease in net loss was primarily because of the factors described above.

Net Loss Margin

Net loss margin was 5.4% for the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025, compared to 7.1% for the fiscal quarter ended March 30, 2024. The 1.7% decrease in net loss margin was driven by a $1.9 million decrease in net loss, compared to the fiscal quarter ended March 30, 2024 because of the factors described above.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA was $11.1 million for the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025, compared to $12.3 million for the fiscal quarter ended March 30, 2024. The $1.2 million, or 9.4%, decrease in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily because of increased investment in sales and marketing programs, partially offset by the benefits from lean manufacturing and value engineering initiatives, as well as the other factors described above.

Adjusted EBITDA Margin

Adjusted EBITDA margin was 10.0% for the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025, compared to 11.1% for the fiscal quarter ended March 30, 2024. The 1.1% decrease in Adjusted EBITDA margin was primarily because of a $1.2 million increase in Adjusted EBITDA and a $0.8 million increase in net sales, compared to the fiscal quarter ended March 30, 2024, which were impacted by the factors described above.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin

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, 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.

Management compensates for these limitations by primarily relying on our GAAP results, while using Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin as supplements to the corresponding GAAP financial measures.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

Our primary sources of liquidity are net cash provided by operating activities and availability under our Revolving Credit Facility (as defined below). Historically, we have funded working capital requirements, capital expenditures, payments related to acquisitions, and debt service requirements with internally generated cash on hand, borrowings under our credit facilities, and the issuance of shares of our common stock. Our primary cash needs are to fund working capital, capital expenditures, debt service requirements, any acquisitions or investments we may undertake, and any share repurchases we may make. As of March 29, 2025, we had $24.0 million of cash, $306.9 million of outstanding indebtedness and an additional $50.0 million of borrowing availability under our Revolving Credit Facility.

Our primary working capital requirements are for the purchase of inventory, payroll, rent, facility costs and other selling, general, and administrative costs. Our working capital requirements fluctuate during the fiscal year, driven primarily by seasonality and the timing of raw material purchases. Our capital expenditures are primarily related to investments in lean manufacturing and value engineering, including production capacity, diversifying our product offerings, storage, and delivery equipment. We are in the midst of a multi-year capital plan to invest in our facilities, technology, and systems.

We believe that our existing cash, cash generated from operations and availability under our Revolving Credit Facility will be adequate to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements over the next 12 months, as well as our longer-term liquidity needs. We have based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we could utilize our available capital resources sooner than we expect. We may issue debt or equity securities, which may provide an additional source of liquidity. However, there can be no assurance equity or debt financing will be available to us when we need it or, if available, the terms will be satisfactory to us and not dilutive to our then-current stockholders.

Our Indebtedness

On February 23, 2022, Latham Pool Products, Inc. (“Latham Pool Products”), our wholly owned subsidiary, and certain subsidiary guarantors entered into a credit and guaranty agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Barclays Bank PLC, which provides a senior secured multicurrency revolving line of credit in an initial principal amount of $75.0 million (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) and a U.S. Dollar senior secured term loan (the “Term Loan”) in an initial principal amount of $325.0 million.

The obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by certain of our wholly owned subsidiaries as defined in the security agreement. The obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of the guarantors’ tangible and intangible assets, including, but not limited to, their accounts receivables, equipment, intellectual property, inventory, cash and cash equivalents, deposit accounts and security accounts.

The Company is required to meet certain financial covenants, including maintain specific liquidity measurements. There are also negative covenants, including certain restrictions on our ability and the ability of our subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness, create liens, make investments, consolidate or merge with other entities, enter into transactions with affiliates, make prepayments with respect to certain indebtedness, make dividend payments, loans, or advances to the Company, declare dividends and make restricted payments and other distributions.

As of March 29, 2025, we were in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Agreement.

Revolving Credit Facility

Table of Contents

Agreement, the “First Lien Net Leverage Ratio”). Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility are not subject to amortization and are due at maturity.

As of March 29, 2025, we had $25.0 million in outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and $50.0 million was available for future borrowing.

Term Loan

The Term Loan matures on February 23, 2029. Loans outstanding under the Term Loan bear interest, at the borrower’s option, at a rate per annum based on Term SOFR (as defined in the Credit Agreement), plus a margin ranging from 3.75% to 4.00%, depending on the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, or based on the Base Rate (each, as defined in the Credit Agreement), plus a margin ranging from 2.75% to 3.00%, depending on the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio. Loans under the Term Loan are subject to scheduled quarterly amortization payments equal to 0.25% of the initial principal amount of the Term Loan.

As of March 29, 2025, we had $281.9 million of outstanding borrowings under the Term Loan.

Share Repurchase Program

On May 10, 2022, our Board approved a stock repurchase program (the “Repurchase Program”), which authorizes us to repurchase up to $100 million of our shares of common stock by May 2025. We may effect these repurchases in open market transactions, privately negotiated purchases or other acquisitions. We are not obligated to repurchase any of our outstanding shares under the Repurchase Program and the timing and amount of any repurchases will depend on market conditions, our stock price, alternative uses of capital, the terms of our debt instruments and other factors. We did not repurchase any shares of our common stock during the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025. As of March 29, 2025, $77.0 million remained available for share repurchases pursuant to our Repurchase Program.

Operating Activities

During the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025, operating activities used $46.9 million of cash. Net loss, after adjustments for non-cash items, provided cash of $10.3 million. Cash used in operating activities was driven by changes in our operating assets and liabilities of $57.2 million. Net cash used by changes in our operating assets and liabilities for the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025 consisted primarily of a $52.6 million increase in trade receivables, a $9.6 million increase in inventories, a $4.9 million decrease in accrued expenses and other current liabilities, a $4.6 million increase in income tax receivable, a $0.1 million decrease in other long-term liabilities and a less than $0.1 million increase in other assets, partially offset by a $14.3 million increase in accounts payable and a $0.2 million decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets. The change in trade receivables was primarily driven by the timing of net sales. The change in inventory was driven by pre-purchasing due to the global trade environment. The changes in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and accounts payable were primarily driven by volume of purchases and timing of payments.

During the fiscal quarter ended March 30, 2024, operating activities used $34.5 million of cash. Net loss, after adjustments for non-cash items, provided cash of $6.8 million. Cash used in operating activities was driven by changes in our operating assets and liabilities of $41.3 million. Net cash used by changes in our operating assets and liabilities for the fiscal quarter ended March 30, 2024 consisted primarily of a $44.9 million increase in trade receivables, a $6.0 million decrease in accrued expenses and other current liabilities, a $0.4 million increase in income tax receivable, a $0.2 million decrease in other long-term liabilities and a $0.1 million

increase in other assets, partially offset by a $8.2 million increase in accounts payable, a $1.6 million decrease in inventories and a $0.5 million decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets. The change in trade receivables was primarily driven by the timing of net sales. The changes in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and accounts payable were primarily driven by volume of purchases and timing of payments.

Investing Activities

During the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025, investing activities used $8.4 million of cash, consisting of the acquisition of two of our autocover dealers of $4.9 million and purchases of property and equipment for $3.5 million. The purchase of property and equipment was primarily to expand capacity for production and diversify offerings, especially for fiberglass pools, the majority of which relates to finishing up carryover projects from the prior year.

During the fiscal quarter ended March 30, 2024, investing activities used $5.3 million of cash, consisting of purchases of property and equipment for $5.3 million. The purchase of property and equipment was primarily to expand capacity for production and diversify offerings, especially for fiberglass pools, the majority of which relates to finishing up carryover projects from the prior year.

Financing Activities

During the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025, financing activities provided $22.5 million of cash, primarily consisting of long-term debt borrowings of $25.0 million partially offset by common stock withheld for taxes on restricted stock units of $2.3 million and repayments of finance lease obligations of $0.2 million.

During the fiscal quarter ended March 30, 2024, financing activities used $19.0 million of cash, primarily consisting of repayments on long-term debt borrowings of $18.8 million and repayments of finance lease obligations of $0.2 million

Contractual Obligations

There have been no material changes, outside of the ordinary course of business, to our contractual obligations during the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025 from those described under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Contractual Obligations” in our Annual Report.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Throughout the preparation of these financial statements, we have made estimates and assumptions that impact the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Our critical accounting policies and estimates are described under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” in our Annual Report and Note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. These estimates are based on historical results, trends, and other assumptions we believe to be reasonable. We evaluate these estimates on an ongoing basis. Actual results may differ from estimates.

Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

A description of recently issued accounting pronouncements that may potentially impact our financial position, results of operations or cash flows, and notes to such financial statements, is disclosed in Note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Market risk is the potential loss that may result from market changes associated with our business or with an existing or forecasted financial transaction. The value of a financial instrument may change as a result of changes in interest rates, exchange rates, commodity prices, equity prices and other market changes. We are exposed to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates because we finance certain operations through variable rate debt instruments and denominate some of our transactions in foreign

Table of Contents

currencies. Changes in these rates may have an impact on future cash flow and earnings. We manage these risks through normal operating and financing activities.

During the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025, there have been no material changes to the information included under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” in our Annual Report.

Interest Rate Risk

We entered into an interest rate swap that was executed on March 10, 2023. The swap has an effective date of May 18, 2023 and a termination date of May 18, 2026. Under the terms of the swap, we fixed our SOFR borrowing rate on a notional amount of $161.0 million. The interest rate swap is not designated as a hedging instrument for accounting purposes.

An increase or decrease of 1% in the effective interest rate, giving effect related to interest rate swaps, as of March 29, 2025, would cause an increase or decrease to annual interest expense, net of approximately $1.3 million.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 29, 2025. Based upon their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of March 29, 2025.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Starting in the second quarter of 2024, as part of a multi-year implementation of a new enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) system, the Company began utilizing certain aspects of the new ERP system. Eventually, this ERP system will replace the existing core financial systems. The ERP system is designed to accurately maintain the Company’s financial records, enhance the flow of financial information, improve data management and provide timely information to its management team. The Company does not believe the changes implemented to date represent a material change in internal control over financial reporting.

There were no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements related to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we may be involved in legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business, including, among others, contract and employment claims, personal injury claims, intellectual property claims, product liability claims and warranty claims, some of which may be covered by insurance. Currently, there are no legal proceedings against us that we believe will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Further, no material legal proceedings were terminated, settled, or otherwise resolved during the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025. However, the results of any current or future legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty and, regardless of the outcome, we may incur significant costs and experience a diversion of management resources as a result of legal proceedings.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

We have disclosed under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report, the risk factors that materially affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report. You should carefully consider the risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other important factors set forth in the Annual Report and other subsequent reports we file with the SEC, including this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, any of which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied. For similar reasons, our past results may not be a reliable indicator of future performance and trends. You also should be aware that these risk factors and other information do not describe every risk that we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may affect us. We operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment and new risks emerge from time to time, and we anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause our views to change. In addition, these risks do not reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, merger, dispositions, joint ventures or investments we may undertake. Any of these known or emerging factors may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and operating results, as well as the trading price of our common stock.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

On May 10, 2022, our Board approved the Repurchase Program, which authorizes us to repurchase up to $100.0 million of our shares of common stock by May 2025. We may effect these repurchases in open market transactions, privately negotiated purchases or other acquisitions. We are not obligated to repurchase any of our shares of our common stock under the program and the timing and amount of any repurchases will depend on market conditions, our stock price, alternative uses of capital, the terms of our debt instruments and other factors. As of March 29, 2025, $77.0 million remained available for share repurchases pursuant to the Repurchase Program. We did not repurchase any shares of our common stock during the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025.

Item 5. Other Information

Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plans – Directors and Section 16 Officers

During the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025, none of the Company's directors or Section 16 officers adopted or terminated (i) any contract, instruction or written plan for the purchase or sale of Company securities that was intended to satisfy the affirmative defense conditions of Rule 10b5-1(c) of the Exchange Act or (ii) any “non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement.”

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	Mar. 29, 2025
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Unaudited Interim Financial Information	Unaudited Interim Financial Information The unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2024 was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 29, 2025 and for the fiscal quarters ended March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024, respectively, have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with Latham Group, Inc.’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 included in the Company’s 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 5, 2025 (the “Annual Report”). In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of these condensed consolidated financial statements, have been included. The Company’s results of operations for the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025 or other interim periods thereof.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, known trends, and other market-specific or other relevant factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Estimates are evaluated on an ongoing basis and revised as there are changes in circumstances, facts, and experience. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known.
Seasonality	Seasonality Although the Company generally has demand for its products throughout the year, its business is seasonal and weather is one of the principal external factors affecting the business. In general, net sales and net income are highest (or net loss is the lowest) during the second and third quarters, representing the peak months of swimming pool use, pool installation, and remodeling and repair activities. Severe weather may also affect net sales in all periods.
Significant Accounting Policies	Significant Accounting Policies Refer to the Annual Report for a discussion of the Company’s significant accounting policies, as updated below.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements	Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements The Company qualifies as “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 and has elected to “opt in” to the extended transition related to complying with new or revised accounting standards, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public and nonpublic companies, the Company will adopt the new or revised standard at the time nonpublic companies adopt the new or revised standard and will do so until such time that the Company either (i) irrevocably elects to “opt out” of such extended transition period or (ii) no longer qualifies as an emerging growth company. The Company may choose to early adopt any new or revised accounting standards whenever such early adoption is permitted for private companies. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”), in an effort to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. For all entities, ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The amendments should be applied prospectively with retrospective application permitted. Early adoption is also permitted. The Company is currently evaluating ASU 2023-09 and its potential impact on the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements. In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40) (“ASU 2024-03”), which improves disclosures to provide more detailed information about a business entity’s expenses. ASU 2024-03 is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026. The amendments should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating ASU 2024-03 and its potential impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”), requiring public entities to disclose information about their reportable segments’ significant expenses and other segment items on an interim and annual basis. Public entities with a single reportable segment are required to apply the disclosure requirements in ASU 2023-07, as well as all existing segment disclosures and reconciliation requirements in ASC 280 on an interim and annual basis. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 during the year ended December 31, 2024. See Note 15 for further detail. In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-01, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope Application of Profits Interest and Similar Awards (“ASU 2024-01”), which improves financial reporting by providing clarity on when an entity should apply the scope guidance in paragraph 718-10-15-3.

For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025. The amendments should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements, with early adoption permitted.
