“Dealers’ orders remain robust, which has created a strong order book across all of our brands and channel inventories are at near optimal levels,” said Malibu Boats CEO Jack Springer in a statement.
Springer said that in the first half of fiscal 2019, the company introduced a number of new boats and features, all of which have been “incredibly well-received by customers and dealers alike.”
“In addition, our operational excellence initiatives are bearing fruit as we are seeing positive results in gross margins in our comparable year-over-year business where we expanded margins meaningfully,” said Springer.
Malibu Boats is a designer, manufacturer and marketer of performance sports boats. Its boats are used for water sports, including water skiing, wakeboarding and wake surfing, as well as general recreational boating.
