Management Commentary
"The first quarter of 2024 was highlighted by our successful IPO and Nasdaq listing, along with substantial top and bottom line growth on strong sales and margin improvement for our diversified and comprehensive product portfolio," said David Shan, Founder, Chairman & CEO. "Our production crew is able to produce 3,000+ vehicles each month, a significant jump from previous output levels. This surge in manufacturing is expected to allow Massimo to meet growing demand while paving the way for exciting new developments.
"Two new recent partnership agreements highlighted our in-store distribution channel expansion efforts with major retailers. We signed an ongoing national agreement with a global omnichannel retailer for the youth series Mini Tractor and Mini 125 Go Kart to be sold in stores. The retailer’s online marketplace currently features over 100 Massimo products, and with the expanded partnership, the two products will now be eligible to be stocked at over 1,300 stores in 13 states beginning in May. The addition of this first national in-store opportunity with this global retailer represents a significant milestone for our company, and we are well positioned to accelerate robust sales growth with the retailer. We believe with successful sales we can continue to add vehicles to the in-store program.
"We also entered into an ongoing agreement with Fleet Farm for six UTV, ATV, and youth series products to be sold in stores and featured on the retailer’s online marketplace.
"Our focus on distribution channel expansion has resulted in over 2,800 retail locations promoting our brand in 48 states where our products are distributed and will continue to drive sales across our full motor product line of Massimo vehicles.
"Looking ahead, with increased participation in outdoor activities and higher utilization of utility vehicles in ranch and farm-work, demand for UTVs and ATVs in the U.S, we believe we are well positioned for continued market penetration in this high-growth category with our full suite of consumer motor products. We believe with increased operating efficiencies we can further enhance margins while continuing to grow our revenue and expand our product line with new models and capabilities," concluded Mr. Shan.
First Quarter 2024 Financial Results
For the three months ended March 31, 2024, revenues increased by $11.3 million, or 60.0%, to $30.2 million, compared to $18.8 million in the prior year period. The first quarter increase in revenue was principally due to our expansion at major chain stores and our dealer network.
Revenue from sales of UTVs, ATVs and electric bikes increased by $12.2 million, or 74.1%, from $16.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2023 to $28.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2024. The increase in revenue was attributable to the expansion into more large retail stores in the US and to a shift in our sales strategy, focusing mostly on in-store sales, which generally involve larger volumes and fewer returns.
Revenue from sales of pontoon boats decreased by $0.9 million, or 38.2%, from $2.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2023 to $1.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2024. The decrease in revenue was primarily attributable to the fact that we shifted from retailing in Q1 2023 to dealer sales in Q1 2024 and the dealers have experienced more difficulty amid the current high interest rate environment obtaining floorplan financing for customers from providers such as Northpoint. This is consistent with industry-wide trends.
Gross profit increased by $4.8 million, or 86.1%, from $5.6 million in the three months ended March 31, 2023 to $10.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2024. Gross profit margin was 34.7% in the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared with 29.8% in the prior year quarter. The increase in the gross profit margin was primarily attributable to higher net sales partly due to decreased returns, as well as the lower cost of sales due to reduced freight costs in the first quarter of 2024 as compared to the previous year.
Cost of revenue on UTVs, ATVs and electric bikes increased by $7.2 million, or 63.7%, from $11.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2023 to $18.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2024 and gross profit increased by $5.0 million, or 96.7%, from $5.2 million in three months ended March 31, 2023 to $10.2 million in three months ended March 31, 2024. Gross profit margin increased by 4.1%, from 31.6% in the three months ended March 31, 2023 to 35.7% in the three months ended March 31, 2024. The increased cost of revenue was in line with the increase in sales. The increase in gross profit margin was mainly due to a significant decline in global container freight when compared with last year.
Cost of revenue on pontoon boats decreased by $0.7 million, or 36.4%, from $1.9 million from the three months ended March 31, 2023 to $1.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2024, and gross profit decreased by $0.2 million, or 46.7%, from $0.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2023 to $0.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2024. Gross profit margin decreased by 2.4%, from 17.6% in the three months ended March 31, 2023 to 15.2% in the three months ended March 31, 2024.
Selling and marketing expenses increased by $0.3 million, or 13.3%, from $2.0 million in the three months ended March 31, 2023 to $2.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2024. This is consistent with the fact that the chargebacks from new big box customer have been increased as a result of increased sales.
General and administrative expenses increased by $1.1 million, or 37.2%, from $3.0 million in the three months ended March 31, 2023 to $4.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2024. The increase was mainly due to increased rent expense and professional fees.
Total operating expenses increased 31.1% to $6.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to $4.9 million in the prior year first quarter.
Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2024, was $3.2 million, or $0.08 per basic and diluted share, as compared to net income of $0.5 million, or $0.01 per basic and diluted share, in the three months ended March 31, 2023.
Cash and cash equivalents totaled $0.2 million at March 31, 2024, as compared to $0.8 million at December 31, 2023. On April 24, 2024, Massimo closed its initial public offering with aggregate gross proceeds, before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering expenses payable by Massimo, of $5.85 million.
Net cash used by operating activities was $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to cash provided of $0.8 million in the three months ended March 31, 2023, primarily due to increases in accounts receivable and inventory.
