(Nasdaq: SWIM), the largest designer, manufacturer, and marketer of in-ground residential swimming pools in North America, Australia, and New Zealand, today announced financial results for the third quarter 2025 ended September 27, 2025. Commenting on the results, Scott Rajeski, President and CEO, said, “In the third quarter, we continued to execute effectively on our strategic priorities – driving the awareness and adoption of fiberglass pools and autocovers, strengthening our position in the Sand State markets, and expanding margins through lean manufacturing, value engineering, and accretive acquisitions. “Our ability to deliver high single-digit sales growth amid challenging industry conditions highlights Latham’s market leadership position across a diversified product portfolio. In-ground pool sales increased modestly in the third quarter and benefitted from continued positive momentum in fiberglass pools, which remain on track to account for approximately 75% of our full year 2025 in-ground pool sales. Covers and liners were important contributors to third-quarter sales growth, primarily reflecting increased adoption rates for autocovers, industry-leading lead times, and the success of our Measure by Latham tool for liners. “Expanding our presence in the Sand State markets remains a core strategic priority, and we are gaining traction as we lay the groundwork for long-term growth. In Florida, one of our initial target markets, Latham now is represented in several Master Planned Communities, and we have broadened our reach through new dealer sign-ups. In addition, we have established strategic partnerships with a few custom Florida homebuilders who are developing smaller-scale, high-end communities that will feature Latham fiberglass pools. “We delivered meaningful margin expansion in the third quarter. Gross margin increased by 300 basis points due to the accretive benefit from the three Coverstar acquisitions as well as our focus on lean manufacturing and value engineering, which continued to drive operational efficiencies. Adjusted EBITDA margin expanded 390 basis points to 23.7%, while we continued to invest in marketing programs to increase awareness and adoption of autocovers and fiberglass pools, particularly in the Sand States.” Third Quarter 2025 Results Net sales for the third quarter of 2025 were $161.9 million, up $11.4 million or 7.6%, from $150.5 million in the prior year’s third quarter reflecting higher sales volume resulting from both organic- and acquisition-related growth, as well as a tariff-related price increase.

$ 161,903 $ 150,496 $ 445,962 $ 421,247 Gross profit for the third quarter of 2025 increased 17.7% to $57.3 million from $48.7 million in the prior year’s third quarter. Gross margin expanded by 300 basis points to 35.4% from 32.4% in the prior year’s third quarter, primarily driven by the accretive benefit of the three Coverstar acquisitions, lean manufacturing and value engineering initiatives, and production efficiencies. Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $28.6 million, similar to the $28.3 million of the prior year’s third quarter, and included increased spending on sales and marketing and personnel to accelerate adoption and awareness of fiberglass pools and autocovers, particularly in the Sand State markets, as well as investments in new enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) infrastructure, partially offset by the timing of performance based compensation. Net income was $8.1 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, significantly above the $5.9 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, reported for the prior year’s third quarter. Net income margin was 5.0% compared to 3.9% for the prior year’s third quarter. Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2025 increased 28.5% to $38.3 million from $29.8 million in the prior year’s third quarter. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 23.7%, 390 basis points above the 19.8% reported in the prior year’s third quarter. Nine Months 2025 Results Net sales were $446.0 million, an increase of 5.9%, or $24.8 million, from $421.2 million in the prior-year period, primarily attributable to higher sales volumes resulting from both organic- and acquisition-related growth and tariff-related price increases. Gross profit was $154.2 million, 16.5% above the $132.3 million reported in the prior-year period. Gross margin expanded by 320 basis points to 34.6% from 31.4% in the prior-year period, primarily resulting from higher volumes, production efficiencies from our lean manufacturing and value engineering initiatives, and a margin benefit from the three Coverstar acquisitions. Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased to $91.1 million, up $9.9 million or 12.3%, from $81.2 million in the prior-year period, primarily due to investment in our sales and marketing efforts to further strengthen our market position, investments in new ERP infrastructure and the inclusion of Coverstar Central. Net income was $18.1 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, 60.3% above the $11.3 million, or $0.10 per diluted share of the prior-year period. Net income margin was 4.1% compared to 2.7% in the prior-year period. Adjusted EBITDA was $89.4 million, up $12.8 million or 16.7% from $76.6 million in the prior-year period. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 20.0%, a 180-basis-point increase from 18.2% in the prior-year period. Balance Sheet, Cash Flow, and Liquidity Latham ended the third quarter of 2025 with cash of $70.5 million. Net cash provided by operating activities was $51.0 million in the third quarter and $40.1 million for the first nine months of 2025. Total debt was $281.1 million at the end of the third quarter, and the net debt leverage ratio improved to 2.3 from 3.0 in this year’s second quarter. Capital expenditures totaled $5.8 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared to $4.0 million in the third quarter of 2024. For the nine months ended September 27, 2025, capital expenditures were $16.2 million, compared to $13.9 million in the prior-year period. Summary and Outlook “Our performance to date has benefited from investments we have made, notably completing accretive acquisitions that both strengthen our business and create future opportunities and advancing the development and scale of our Measure by Latham tool, and our initial progress in the Sand States has laid the foundation for accelerated growth in future periods. “With much of the pool building season now behind us, and based on our current visibility through year-end, we are narrowing our net sales guidance range to $540-$550 million and our adjusted EBITDA guidance range to $92-$98 million. This represents 7% net sales growth and 19% adjusted EBITDA growth at the midpoints in a year in which new U.S. pool starts are likely to be flat to slightly below 2024 levels. Additionally, we have revised our capital expenditure estimate for 2025 to a range of $22-$24 million. “Latham’s category leadership in both fiberglass pools and autocovers position us well for continued long-term growth. Fiberglass pools are increasingly being recognized by consumers for their advantages, notably cost-efficiency, fast and easy installation, low maintenance requirements, and eco-friendliness. As a result of these benefits, we expect the fiberglass pool category to gain another percentage point of total market share to represent approximately 24% of total U.S. in-ground pool sales in 2025. Similarly, autocovers are gaining momentum as they are compatible with all types of in-ground pools, have unparalleled safety benefits, and offer significant cost savings to pool owners. Our focus on advancing the awareness and adoption of these excellent products, building our presence in the Sand States, and successful accretive acquisitions, support our confidence that Latham will continue to outperform the U.S. in-ground pool market in future periods,” Mr. Rajeski concluded. FY 2025 Guidance Ranges Updated Prior Net Sales $540-550 million $535-565 million Adjusted EBITDA1 $92-98 million $90-100 million Capital Expenditures $22-24 million $27-33 million

About Latham Group, Inc.

Latham has a coast-to-coast operations platform consisting of approximately 1,850 employees across around 30 locations. Non-GAAP Financial Measures We track our non-GAAP financial measures to monitor and manage our underlying financial performance. This news release includes the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, net debt and net debt leverage ratio which are non-GAAP financial measures that exclude the impact of certain costs, losses, and gains that are required to be included under GAAP. Although we believe these measures are useful to investors and analysts for the same reasons it is useful to management, as discussed below, these measures are neither a substitute for, nor superior to, U.S. GAAP financial measures or disclosures. Other companies may calculate similarly-titled non-GAAP measures differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. In addition, our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed to imply that our future results will be unaffected by any such adjustments. We have reconciled our historic non-GAAP financial measures to the applicable most comparable GAAP measures in this news release. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are key metrics used by management and our board of directors 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 incentive compensation plans, 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 news release. 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. 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. 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, net, or the amounts necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our outstanding debt;
Page 4
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. Net Debt and Net Debt Leverage Ratio Net Debt and Net Debt Leverage Ratio are non-GAAP financial measures used in monitoring and evaluating our overall liquidity, financial flexibility, and leverage. Other companies may calculate similarly titled non-GAAP measures differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. We define Net Debt as total debt less cash and cash equivalents. We define the Net Debt Leverage Ratio as Net Debt divided by last twelve months (“LTM”) of Adjusted EBITDA. We believe this measure is an important indicator of our ability to service our long-term debt obligations. There are material limitations to using Net Debt Leverage Ratio as we may not always be able to use cash to repay debt on a dollar-for-dollar basis.
