Company Reports Q2 Revenue of $197.47M, Exceeds Expectations
Reports Q2 revenue $197.47M, consensus $188.38M. Commenting on the results, Sean Gadd, President and CEO, said, "Second quarter sales growth was driven by execution of our strategic priorities and supports our expectations of continued share gains across our product lines. Our in-ground pool sales increased 22.5%, or 13.6% organically, led by fiberglass pool sales, which are on track to account for approximately 80% of our full year in-ground pool sales in 2026. Cover sales were up 10% in the second quarter, led by growth in autocovers, indicating a steady increase in attachment rates on new pool installations."
Latham Reports Q1 Revenue of $117.32M, Below Expectations
Reports Q1 revenue $117.32M, consensus $118.46M. Commenting on the results, Sean Gadd, President and CEO, said, "We continue to execute effectively on our strategic priorities and achieved sales growth in each of our product lines in the first quarter. Sales growth was led by gains in autocovers and liners and the benefits of the Freedom Pools acquisition, while adverse weather conditions in North America kept organic in-ground pool sales steady year-over-year. Adjusted EBITDA growth outpaced sales growth by a considerable margin, demonstrating Latham's substantial operating leverage and cost discipline, which more than offset the impact of higher investments in growth initiatives."
