ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) (of the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit 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 disclosures. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.
As of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-K Annual Report, we carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2023.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Internal control over financial reporting is a process to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2023. In making this assessment, we used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO") in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) . Based on such assessment our management has concluded that, as of June 30, 2023, our internal control over financial reporting is effective based on those criteria.
31
The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2023, has been audited by our independent registered public accounting firm, Deloitte & Touche LLP, as stated in their report which is included in Item 15 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f), during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION

R EPO RT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the stockholders and the Board of Directors of MasterCraft Boat Holdings, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of MasterCraft Boat Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, the related consolidated statements of operations, equity, and cash flows, for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2023, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2023, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated August 30, 2023, expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
Product Warranties — Refer to Notes 1 and 8 to the financial statements
Critical Audit Matter Description
The Company offers warranties on the sale of certain of its products for periods of between one and five years. Estimated costs that may be incurred under these warranties are accrued at the time the product revenue is recognized. These estimated costs are based upon the number of units sold, historical and anticipated rates of warranty claims, and the cost per claim.
We identified the accrued warranty liability of $24.6 million for the MasterCraft brand as a critical audit matter because of the significant judgments made by management to estimate the anticipated rates of warranty claims and cost per claim related to product warranties at the time the product revenue is recognized. This required a high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort when performing audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of management’s estimates of the rates and costs of future warranty claims.
How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
Our audit procedures related to the accrued warranty liability for the MasterCraft brand included the following, among others:
38
• We evaluated the design and operating effectiveness of controls over management’s estimation of the accrued warranty liability, including those over historical product warranty claim data and projected future product warranty claims.
• We evaluated the accuracy and completeness of the historical product warranty claims as an input to management’s accrued warranty liability calculation.
• We evaluated management’s ability to accurately estimate the accrued warranty liability by comparing the accrued warranty liability in the prior year to the actual product warranty claims paid in the current year.
• We evaluated the completeness of the accrued warranty liability through inquiries of operational and executive management regarding knowledge of known product warranty claims or product issues and evaluated whether they were appropriately considered in the determination of the accrued warranty liability.
• We assessed management’s methodology and tested the valuation of the accrued warranty liability by developing an independent expectation for the accrual based on historical and current year warranty claims activity and any known trends in warranty claims or specific product issues, and compared our expectation to the amount recorded by management.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the stockholders and the Board of Directors of MasterCraft Boat Holdings, Inc.
Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of MasterCraft Boat Holdings Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2023, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2023, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended June 30, 2023, of the Company and our report dated August 30, 2023, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.
Basis for Opinion
The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

MASTERCRAFT BOAT HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
N OTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unless otherwise noted, dollars in thousands, except per share data and per unit data)
1 . SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation — The accompanying financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of MasterCraft Boat Holdings, Inc. (“Holdings”) and its wholly owned subsidiaries from the dates of their acquisitions. Holdings and its subsidiaries collectively are referred to herein as the “Company.” All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Holdings has no independent operations and no material assets, other than its wholly owned equity interests in its subsidiaries, as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, and no material liabilities. As of June 30, 2023 and 2022 , Holdings had no material contingencies, long-term obligations, or guarantees other than a guarantee of its subsidiaries’ long-term debt (see Note 9).
Discontinued Operations — On September 2, 2022, the Company sold substantially all of the assets and liabilities of its NauticStar segment. The disposal represented the Company's exit from the saltwater and deck boat category, a strategic shift that has a significant effect on the Company's operations and financial results, and as such, qualifies for reporting as discontinued operations. The NauticStar segment results, for the periods presented, are reflected in our consolidated statements of operations and consolidated statements of cash flows as discontinued operations. Additionally, the related assets and liabilities associated with the discontinued operations are classified as discontinued operations in our consolidated balance sheet for the prior period presented (see Note 3).
Unless otherwise indicated, the financial disclosures and related information provided herein relate to our continuing operations and we have recast prior period amounts to reflect discontinued operations.
Reclassifications — Certain historical amounts have been reclassified in these consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes herewith to conform to current presentation.
Use of Estimates — The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses and related disclosures. The Company bases these estimates on historical results and various other assumptions believed to be reasonable. The Company’s most significant financial statement estimates include impairment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, warranty liability, unrecognized tax positions, inventory repurchase contingent obligations, and impairment of long-lived assets and intangible assets subject to amortization. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition — The Company’s revenue is derived primarily from the sale of boats and trailers, marine parts, and accessories to its independent dealers. The Company recognizes revenue when obligations under the terms of a contract are satisfied and control over promised goods is transferred to a customer. For substantially all sales, this occurs when the product is released to the carrier responsible for transporting it to a customer. The Company typically receives payment from the floor plan financing providers within 5 business days of shipment. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration it expects to receive in exchange for a product. The Company offers dealer incentives that include wholesale rebates, retail rebates and promotions, floor plan reimbursement or cash discounts, and other allowances that are recorded as reductions of revenues in Net sales in the consolidated statements of operations. The consideration recognized represents the amount specified in a contract with a customer, net of estimated incentives the Company reasonably expects to pay. The estimated liability and reduction in revenue for dealer incentives is recorded at the time of sale. Subsequent adjustments to incentive estimates are possible because actual results may differ from these estimates if conditions dictate the need to enhance or reduce sales promotion and incentive programs or if dealer achievement or other items vary from historical trends. Accrued dealer incentives are included in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Rebates and Discounts
Dealers earn wholesale rebates based on purchase volume commitments and achievement of certain performance metrics. The Company estimates the amount of wholesale rebates based on historical achievement, forecasted volume, and assumptions regarding dealer behavior. Rebates that apply to boats already in dealer inventory are referred to as retail rebates. The Company estimates the amount of retail rebates based on historical data for specific boat models adjusted for forecasted sales volume, product mix, dealer and consumer behavior, and assumptions concerning market conditions. The Company also utilizes various programs whereby it offers cash discounts or agrees to reimburse its dealers for certain floor plan interest costs incurred by dealers for limited periods of time, generally ranging up to nine months .
45
Shipping and Handling Costs
Shipping and handling costs includes those costs incurred to transport product to customers and internal handling costs, which relate to activities to prepare goods for shipment. The Company has elected to account for shipping and handling costs associated with outbound freight after control over a product has transferred to a customer as a fulfillment cost. The Company includes shipping and handling costs, including costs billed to customers, in Cost of sales in the consolidated statements of operations.
Contract Liabilities
A contract liability is created when customers prepay for goods or services prior to the Company transferring control of those goods or services to the customer. The contract liability is reduced once control of the goods is transferred to the customer. The difference between the opening and closing balances of the Company’s contract liabilities primarily results from the timing difference between the Company’s performance and the point at which it receives pre-payment from the customer.
Other Revenue Recognition Matters
Dealers generally have no right to return unsold boats. Occasionally, the Company may accept returns in limited circumstances and at the Company’s discretion under its warranty policy. The Company may be obligated, in the event of default by a dealer, to accept returns of unsold boats under its repurchase commitment to floor financing providers, who are able to obtain such boats through foreclosure. The repurchase commitment is on an individual unit basis with a term from the date it is financed by the lending institution through the payment date by the dealer, generally not exceeding 30 months. The Company accounts for these arrangements as guarantees and recognizes a liability based on the estimated fair value of the repurchase obligation. The estimated fair value takes into account our estimate of the loss we will incur upon resale of any repurchases. The Company accrues the estimated fair value of this obligation based on the age of inventory currently under floor plan financing and estimated credit quality of dealers holding the inventory. Inputs used to estimate this fair value include significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions about the inputs that market participants would use and, therefore, this liability is classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
The Company has excluded sales and other taxes assessed by a governmental authority in connection with revenue-producing activities from the determination of the transaction price for all contracts. The Company has not adjusted net sales for the effects of a significant financing component because the period between the transfer of the promised goods and the customer's payment is expected to be one year or less.
Accounts Receivable — Accounts receivable represents amounts billed to customers under credit terms customary in its industry. The Company normally does not charge interest on its accounts receivable. The Company carries its accounts receivable at face value, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts, which the Company records on a regular basis based upon known bad debt risks and past loss history, customer payment practices and economic conditions. Actual collection experience may differ from the current estimate of net receivables. A change to the allowance for doubtful accounts may be required if a future event or other change in circumstances results in a change in the estimate of the ultimate collectability of a specific account. Amounts recorded as bad debt expense, write-offs, and recoveries were not material for the years ended June 30, 2023, 2022, and 2021 .
Cash and Cash Equivalents — The Company considers all highly-liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents. The Company's cash and cash equivalents include cash deposits and money market funds. The Company’s cash deposits may at times exceed federally insured amounts.
Held-to-Maturity Securities — The Company invests excess cash balances in short-term debt securities, such as government-sponsored securities, and/or corporate bonds. The Company accounts for its investments in debt securities in accordance with Accounting Standard Codification ("ASC") 320, Investments — Debt and Equity Securities .
We classify our investments in debt securities based on the facts and circumstances present at the time of purchase of the securities. We subsequently reassess the appropriateness of that classification at each reporting date. As of June 30, 2023, all of our investments in debt securities were classified as held-to-maturity and are due to mature within one year (see Note 4).
Inputs used to estimate the fair value of our investments include significant other observable inputs and, therefore, are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy .
46
Concentrations of Credit and Business Risk — Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk primarily consist of trade receivables. Credit risk on trade receivables is mitigated as a result of the Company’s use of trade letters of credit, dealer floor plan financing arrangements, and the geographically diversified nature of the Company’s customer base.
Supplier Concentrations
The Company is dependent on the ability of its suppliers to provide products on a timely basis and on favorable pricing terms. The loss of certain principal suppliers or a significant reduction in product availability from principal suppliers could have a material adverse effect on the Company. Business risk insurance is in place to mitigate the business risk associated with sole suppliers for sudden disruptions such as those caused by natural disasters.
The Company is dependent on third-party equipment manufacturers, distributors, and dealers for certain parts and materials utilized in the manufacturing process. During the years ended June 30, 2023, 2022, and 2021 , the Company purchased all engines for its MasterCraft performance sport boats under a supply agreement with a single vendor. Total purchases for all segments from this vendor were $ 47.6 million, $ 45.0 million, and $ 40.6 million for the years ended June 30, 2023, 2022, and 2021, respectively. During the years ended June 30, 2023, 2022, and 2021 , the Company purchased outboard engines for its Aviara boats and a majority of the engines for its Crest boats under a supply agreement with a single vendor. Total purchases from this vendor were $ 31.0 million, $ 34.0 million, and $ 22.7 million for the years ended June 30, 2023, 2022, and 2021 , respectively.
Inventories — Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value and are shown net of an inventory allowance in the consolidated balance sheet. Inventory cost includes material, labor, and manufacturing overhead and is determined based on the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Provisions are made as necessary to reduce inventory amounts to their net realizable value or to provide for obsolete inventory.
Property, Plant, and Equipment — Property, plant, and equipment are recorded at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives. Repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred, and expenditures for additions and improvements that increase the asset’s useful life are capitalized.
For the years ended June 30, 2023, 2022, and 2021, ranges of asset lives used for depreciation purposes are:
Buildings and improvements

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets — The Company does not amortize goodwill and other purchased intangible assets with indefinite lives, which are primarily related to trade names. The Company’s intangible assets with finite lives consist primarily of dealer networks and are carried at their estimated fair values at the time of acquisition, less accumulated amortization. Amortization is recognized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets (see Note 7). Intangible assets that are subject to amortization are evaluated for impairment using a process similar to that used to evaluate long-lived assets described below. The Company has three reporting units, MasterCraft, Crest, and Aviara, which each relate to an operating segment as described in Note 14. As of June 30, 2023, all of the Company’s goodwill relates to the MasterCraft reporting unit and all of the Company’s other intangible assets relate to the MasterCraft and Crest reporting units.
Goodwill
Goodwill results from the excess of purchase price over the net identifiable assets of businesses acquired. The Company reviews goodwill for impairment annually, at its fiscal year-end annual impairment testing date, and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the fair value of a reporting unit may be below its carrying value. As part of the impairment tests, the Company may perform a qualitative, rather than quantitative, assessment to determine whether the fair values of its reporting units are “more likely than not” to be greater than their carrying values. In performing this qualitative analysis, the Company considers various factors, including the effect of market or industry changes and the reporting units' actual results compared to projected results.
If the fair value of a reporting unit does not meet the "more likely than not" criteria discussed above, the impairment test for goodwill is a quantitative test. This test involves comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying value. If the fair value exceeds the carrying value, goodwill is not considered impaired. If the carrying amount exceeds the fair value then the goodwill is considered impaired and an impairment loss is recognized in an amount by which the carrying value exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of the goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.
The Company calculates the fair value of its reporting units by considering both the income approach and market approach. The income approach calculates the fair value of the reporting unit using a discounted cash flow method. Internally forecasted future cash flows, which the Company believes reasonably approximate market participant assumptions, are discounted using a weighted average cost of capital (“Discount Rate”) developed for each reporting unit. The Discount Rate is developed using observable market inputs, as well as
47
considering whether or not there is a measure of risk related to the specific reporting unit’s forecasted performance. Fair value under the market approach is determined for each unit by applying market multiples for comparable public companies to the unit’s financial results. The key judgements in these calculations are the assumptions used in determining the reporting unit’s forecasted future performance, including revenue growth and operating margins, as well as the perceived risk associated with those forecasts in determining the Discount Rate, along with selecting representative market multiples.
The Company recognized a $ 1.1 million goodwill impairment charge within the Aviara segment during the year ended June 30, 2022 (see Note 7).
Other Intangible Assets
The Company's primary intangible assets other than goodwill are dealer networks and trade names acquired in business combinations. These intangible assets are initially valued using a methodology commensurate with the intended use of the asset. The dealer networks were valued using an income approach, which requires an estimate or forecast of the expected future cash flows from the dealer network through the application of the multi-period excess earnings approach. The fair value of trade names is measured using a relief-from-royalty approach, a variation of the income approach, which requires an estimate or forecast of the expected future cash flows. This method assumes the value of the trade name is the discounted cash flows of the amount that would be paid to third parties had the Company not owned the trade name and instead licensed the trade name from another company. The basis for future sales projections for these methods are internal revenue forecasts by reporting unit, which the Company believes represent reasonable market participant assumptions. The future cash flows are discounted using an applicable Discount Rate as well as any potential risk premium to reflect the inherent risk of holding a standalone intangible asset.
The key judgements in these fair value calculations, as applicable, are: assumptions used in developing internal revenue growth and dealer expense forecasts, assumed dealer attrition rates, the selection of an appropriate royalty rate, as well as the perceived risk associated with those forecasts in determining the Discount Rate.
The costs of amortizable intangible assets, including dealer networks, are recognized over their expected useful lives, approximately ten years for the dealer networks, using the straight-line method. Intangible assets that are subject to amortization are evaluated for impairment using a process similar to that used to evaluate long-lived assets described below. Intangible assets not subject to amortization are assessed for impairment at least annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that an asset may be impaired. As part of the annual test, the Company may perform a qualitative, rather than quantitative, assessment to determine whether each trade name intangible asset is “more likely than not” impaired. In performing this qualitative analysis, the Company considers various factors, including macroeconomic events, industry and market events and cost related events. If the “more likely than not” criteria is not met, the impairment test for indefinite-lived intangible assets consists of a comparison of the fair value of the intangible asset with its carrying amount. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the asset.
The Company recognized $ 18.5 million in other intangible asset impairment charges related to the NauticStar reporting unit during the year ended June 30, 2022. These charges are included in the loss from discontinued operations (see Note 3).
Long-Lived Assets Other than Intangible Assets — The Company assesses the potential for impairment of its long-lived assets if facts and circumstances, such as declines in sales, earnings, or cash flows or adverse changes in the business climate, suggest that they may be impaired. A current expectation that, more likely than not, a long-lived asset (asset group) will be sold or otherwise disposed of significantly before the end of its previously estimated useful life will also trigger a review for impairment. The Company performs its assessment by comparing the book value of the asset groups to the estimated future undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset groups. If any impairment in the carrying value of its long-lived assets is indicated, the assets would be adjusted to an estimate of fair value.
The Company recognized $ 5.3 million in long-lived asset impairment charges related to the NauticStar reporting unit during the year ended June 30, 2022. These charges are included in the loss from discontinued operations (see Note 3).
Product Warranties — The Company offers warranties on the sale of certain products for periods of between one and five years . These warranties require us or our dealers to repair or replace defective products during the warranty period at no cost to the consumer. We estimate the costs that may be incurred under our basic limited warranty and record as a liability the amount of such costs at the time the product revenue is recognized. Factors that affect our warranty liability include the number of units sold, historical and anticipated rates of warranty claims, and cost per claim. We periodically assess the adequacy of the recorded warranty liabilities and adjust the amounts as actual claims are determined or as changes in the obligations become reasonably estimable. We also adjust our liability for specific warranty matters when they become known, and the exposure can be estimated. Future warranty claims may differ from our estimate of the warranty liability, which could lead to changes in the Company’s warranty liability in future periods.
48
Income Taxes — Income tax expense is the total of the current year income tax due or refundable and the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities. The Company records its global tax provision based on the respective tax rules and regulations for the jurisdictions in which it operates. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are the expected future tax amounts for the temporary differences between carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities, computed using enacted tax rates.
Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized. Significant judgment is required in evaluating the need for and magnitude of appropriate valuation allowances against deferred tax assets. The realization of these assets is dependent on generating future taxable income.
A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded.
The Company recognizes interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense.
In determining the amount of current and deferred tax the Company takes into account the impact of uncertain tax positions and whether additional taxes, interest and penalties may be due. The Company believes that its accruals for tax liabilities are adequate for all open tax years based on its assessment of many factors, including interpretations of tax law and prior experience. This assessment relies on estimates and assumptions and may involve a series of judgments about future events. New information may become available that causes the Company to change its judgment regarding the adequacy of existing tax liabilities; such changes to tax liabilities will have an impact on tax expense in the period that such a determination is made.
Research and Development — Research and development expenditures are expensed as incurred. Research and development expense for the years ended June 30, 2023, 2022, and 2021 was $ 8.3 million , $ 7.2 million , and $ 5.8 million , respectively, and is included in Operating expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.
Self-Insurance — The Company is self-insured for certain losses relating to product liability claims and employee medical claims. The Company has purchased stop-loss coverage in order to limit its exposure to any significant levels for these matters. Losses are accrued based on the Company’s estimates of the aggregate liability for self-insured claims incurred using certain actuarial assumptions followed in the insurance industry and the Company’s historical experience.
Deferred Debt Issuance Costs — Certain costs incurred to obtain financing are capitalized and amortized over the term of the related debt using the effective interest method. For the year ended June 30, 2021, the Company incurred deferred financing costs of $ 0.6 million. For the years ended June 30, 2023, 2022, and 2021 , the Company recorded related amortization expense of $ 0.2 million, $ 0.2 million, and $ 0.6 million, respectively. Additionally, for the year ended June 30, 2021, the Company recognized a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $ 0.7 million related to the debt refinancing in fiscal 2021. See Note 9 – Long-Term Debt for a discussion on debt issuance costs.
Share-Based Compensation — The Company records amounts for all share-based compensation, including grants of restricted stock awards and performance stock units over the vesting period in the consolidated statements of operations based on their fair values at the date of the grant. Forfeitures of share-based compensation, if any, are recognized as they occur. Share-based compensation costs are included in Selling and marketing and General and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of Operations. See Note 11 – Share-Based Compensation for a description of the Company's accounting for share-based compensation plans.
Advertising — Advertising costs are expensed when the advertising first takes place. Advertising expense recognized during the years ended June 30, 2023, 2022, and 2021, was $ 5.7 million , $ 4.4 million , and $ 4.4 million , respectively, and is included in Selling and marketing expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.
49
Fair Value Measurements — The Company measures certain of its financial assets and liabilities at fair value and utilizes the established framework for measuring fair value and disclosing information about fair value measurements. Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair values:
Level 1 — Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.
Level 2 — Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3 — Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a company’s own assumptions about the inputs that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.
When measuring fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. When possible, the Company looks to active and observable markets to price identical assets. When identical assets are not traded in active markets, the Company looks to market observable data for similar assets. The Company’s most significant financial asset or liability measured at fair value on a recurring basis is its inventory repurchase contingent obligation (see “Revenue Recognition - Other Revenue Recognition Matters” and Note 12). The non-recurring fair value measurement related to the impairment of goodwill recorded in fiscal 2022 is a level 3 measurement.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments — The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, consisting of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other liabilities, approximate their estimated fair values due to the relative short-term nature of the amounts. The carrying amount of debt approximates fair value due to variable interest rates at customary terms and rates the Company could obtain in current financing.
Earnings Per Common Share — Basic earnings per common share reflects reported earnings divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per common share include the effect of dilutive stock options, restricted stock awards, and performance stock units unless inclusion would not be dilutive.
Postretirement Benefits — The Company has a defined contribution plan and makes contributions including matching and discretionary contributions which are based on various percentages of compensation, and in some instances are based on the amount of the employees' contributions to the plans. The expense related to the defined contribution plan was $ 1.9 million, $ 1.7 million, and $ 1.4 million for the years ended June 30, 2023, 2022, and 2021 , respectively.
New Accounting Pronouncements Issued And Adopted
Income Taxes — In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. ASU 2019-12 simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to general principles in Income Taxes (Topic 740). It also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020.

For fiscal 2023 , the Company’s top ten dealers accounted for approximately 40 % of our net sales and one of our dealers individually accounted for 14.9 %, or approximately $ 98.6 million. For fiscal 2022 and 2021, the Company's top ten dealers accounted for approximately 30 % of our net sales and none of our dealers individually accounted for more than 10 % of our total net sales.
On a consolidated basis, sales outside of North America accounted for 4.6 %, 5.5 %, and 5.1 % of the Company’s net sales for the years ended June 30, 2023, 2022, and 2021, respectively. The Company had no significant concentrations of sales to individual dealers or in countries outside of North America during the years ended June 30, 2023, 2022, and 2021.
Contract Liabilities
As of June 30, 2023 , the Company had $ 3.3 million of contract liabilities associated with customer deposits and services reported in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities and Other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. The Company expects to recognize $ 1.5 million of this amount during the year ending June 30, 2024, and $ 1.8 million thereafter. As of June 30, 2022 , total contract liabilities were $ 1.4 million. During the year ended June 30, 2023, all of this amount was recognized as revenue.
See Note 1 for a description of the Company’s significant revenue recognition policies and Note 14 for a description of the Company’s segments.
3. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
On September 2, 2022, the Company sold its NauticStar business to certain affiliates of Iconic Marine Group, LLC ("Purchaser"). Pursuant to the terms of the purchase agreement, substantially all of the assets of NauticStar were sold, including, among other things, all of the issued and outstanding membership interests in its wholly-owned subsidiary NS Transport, LLC, all owned real property, equipment, inventory, intellectual property and accounts receivable, and the Purchaser assumed substantially all of the liabilities of NauticStar, including, among other things, product liability and warranty claims.
In conjunction with the purchase agreement, the Company entered into a joint employer services agreement and a transition services agreement, which provided certain services to the Purchaser for various periods of time after the sale. Both agreements ended during the second quarter of fiscal 2023. These agreements did not a have a material impact on expenditures, earnings, nor cash flows during the year ended June 30, 2023.
Further, the Company entered into the Second Amendment to the Credit Agreement as described further in Note 9 related to waivers of restrictions within the Credit Agreement, as amended, on the sale of assets.
During the year ended June 30, 2023 , the Company recognized a $ 22.5 million loss on sale, subject to further changes based upon a customary working capital adjustment which is currently undergoing arbitration. The outcome of this matter is uncertain at this time. Furthermore, assets and liabilities retained, primarily related to certain claims, are subject to change, with activity after the date of sale being recorded as discontinued operations.

NauticStar Impairment Activity
In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2022, the NauticStar reporting unit recorded unplanned negative operating results despite ongoing efforts to improve sales volumes and yield more favorable margins, including the engagement of third-party consulting resources. These results, combined with the outlook for further supply chain disruptions, labor challenges, and higher costs from inflationary pressures, resulted in an impairment trigger in the fourth quarter related to the NauticStar reporting unit’s intangible and other long-lived assets. Based on our evaluation of projected future cash flows, we concluded that the trade name intangible asset of $ 8.0 million was fully impaired as of June 30, 2022.
We then performed a probability-weighted undiscounted cash flow analysis for the asset group related to the NauticStar reporting unit that considered projected cash flows from continuing to operate the assets through their remaining estimated useful lives, a potential sale, and a potential exit of the business other than through a sale and concluded that the carrying value of the asset group was not recoverable. The fair value of the finite-lived dealer network intangible asset was estimated using these cash flows, resulting in a full impairment of $ 10.5 million. The fair value of the fixed assets, which primarily comprised of machinery and equipment, such as tooling, was estimated using liquidation values, resulting in an impairment charge of $ 5.3 million against the asset group’s fixed assets.
As a result of our impairment analyses, we recorded total impairment charges of $ 23.8 million related to the NauticStar reporting unit’s intangible and fixed assets during the year ended June 30, 2022, which are included in Impairments in the results of discontinued operations above.

4. HELD-TO-MATURITY SECURITIES
During the year ended June 30, 2023, we invested a portion of our cash and cash equivalents in short-term investments, which primarily consist of investment grade corporate bonds and U.S. treasury bills. We have the ability and intention to hold these investments until maturity and therefore have classified these investments as held-to-maturity and recorded them at amortized cost and presented them in “Held-to-maturity securities” on our consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2023. The income recognized for these investments is recorded within Interest income on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of June 30, 2022, there were no outstanding held-to-maturity investments.

7. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Goodwill and Other Intangible Asset Impairment
See Note 1 for a discussion of the methods used to determine the fair value of goodwill and other intangible assets. In assessing the need for goodwill and intangible impairment, management utilizes a number of estimates, including operating results, business plans, economic projections, anticipated future cash flows, transactions and marketplace data. Accordingly, these fair value measurements fall in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Fiscal 2022 Goodwill Impairment
In fiscal 2022, the Company realigned its reportable segments. As a result of the change in segments, the Company reallocated the goodwill recorded in the MasterCraft reporting unit to the two separate MasterCraft and Aviara reporting units. In conjunction with the reallocation of goodwill, the Company tested goodwill at our MasterCraft and Aviara segments and determined the carrying value of the Aviara reporting unit to be in excess of the fair value. Consequently, a $ 1.1 million impairment charge was recognized for our Aviara reporting unit in fiscal 2022.

Goodwill reallocation and impairment charge for the year ended June 30, 2022, were as follows:

On June 28, 2021, the Company entered into a credit agreement with a syndicate of certain financial institutions (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement provides the Company with a $ 160.0 million senior secured credit facility, consisting of a $ 60.0 million term loan (the “Term Loan”) and a $ 100.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”). The Credit Agreement refinanced and replaced the Fourth Amended Credit Agreement, which had been in place prior to the Credit Agreement and
55
provided the Company with a $ 190.0 million senior secured credit facility, consisting of a $ 75.0 million term loan, and $ 80.0 million term loan, and a $ 35.0 million revolving credit facility. The Credit Agreement is secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets.
The Credit Agreement contains a number of covenants that, among other things, restrict the Company’s ability to, subject to specified exceptions, incur additional debt; incur additional liens and contingent liabilities; sell or dispose of assets; merge with or acquire other companies; liquidate or dissolve; engage in businesses that are not in a related line of business; make loans, advances or guarantees; pay dividends or make other distributions; engage in transactions with affiliates; and make investments. The Company is also required to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and a maximum net leverage ratio.
As a result of entering into the Credit Agreement, the Company recognized a $ 0.7 million loss on early extinguishment of debt during the year ended June 30, 2021 related to unamortized debt issuance costs of the previously existing credit facility.
On August 31, 2022, the Company entered into the Second Amendment to the Credit Agreement to obtain the necessary consents and waivers to the restrictions described above in the covenants of the Credit Agreement, as related to the sale of the NauticStar business on September 2, 2022, as discussed in Note 3.
The Credit Agreement, as amended, bears interest, at the Company’s option, at either the prime rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.25 % to 1.00 % or at an adjusted benchmark rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.25 % to 2.00 %, in each case based on the Company’s net leverage ratio. The Company is also required to pay a commitment fee for any unused portion of the revolving credit facility ranging from 0.15 % to 0.30 % based on the Company’s net leverage ratio. As of June 30, 2023 and 2022 , the effective interest rate on borrowings outstanding was 6.50 % and 2.94 %, respectively.
The Credit Agreement will mature and all remaining amounts outstanding thereunder will be due and payable on June 28, 2026. As of June 30, 2023, the Company was in compliance with its financial covenants under the Credit Agreement.
Revolving Credit Facility
In conjunction with the Credit Agreement entered into on June 28, 2021, the Company drew $ 33.7 million on its Revolving Credit Facility. Drawn amounts were used to repay a same amount of outstanding borrowings under the term loans under the Fourth Amended Credit Agreement. As of June 30, 2022 , the Company had repaid all outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and had remaining availability of $ 100.0 million. The Company has not utilized the revolver as of June 30, 2023, and still holds availability of $ 100.0 million.
Maturities for the Term Loan subsequent to June 30, 2023 are as follows:

The total amount of interest and penalties recorded in the consolidated statements of operations for the years ended June 30, 2023, 2022, and 2021 was an expense of $ 0.2 million, an expense of $ 0.2 million, and a benefit of $ 0.2 million, respectively. The amounts accrued for interest and penalties at June 30, 2023 and 2022 were $ 1.1 million and $ 0.8 million, respectively, and is presented in unrecognized tax positions on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
In general, it is the practice and intention of the Company to reinvest the earnings of its non-U.S. subsidiaries in those operations. As of June 30, 2023, the Company has not made a current provision for U.S. or additional foreign withholding taxes on investments in foreign
57
subsidiaries that are indefinitely reinvested. Generally, such amounts become subject to U.S. taxation upon the remittance of dividends and under certain other circumstances.
The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal income tax, as well as various other state income taxes and foreign income taxes. The federal income tax returns for the years ended June 30, 2020 through 2022 are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service. For state purposes, the statutes of limitation vary by jurisdiction. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to examination by taxing authorities for years before June 30, 2020. The Company expects the total amount of unrecognized benefits to increase by approximately $ 0.8 million in the next twelve months. The Company records unrecognized tax benefits as liabilities and adjusts these liabilities when its judgment changes as a result of the evaluation of new information not previously available. Because of the complexity of some of these uncertainties, the ultimate resolution may result in a payment that is materially different from our current estimate of the unrecognized tax benefit liabilities. These differences will be reflected as increases or decreases to income tax expense in the period in which new information is available.

Restricted Stock Awards
All RSAs granted to non-employee directors vest over the remainder of that fiscal year, and all RSAs granted to employees vest over a period of between one to three years . Generally, non-vested RSAs are forfeited if employment is terminated prior to vesting. RSAs are granted at a per share fair value equal to the market value of the Company’s common stock on the grant date. The Company recognizes the cost of non-vested RSAs ratably over the requisite service period.
The fair value of RSAs vested during the years ended June 30, 2023, 2022, and 2021 was $ 3.2 million, $ 2.4 million, and $ 1.6 million, respectively. A summary of RSA activity within continuing operations for these years is as follows:

Performance Stock Units
During the years ended June 30, 2023, 2022, and 2021, the Company granted performance shares to certain employees. The awards will be earned based on the Company’s achievement of certain performance criteria over a three-year performance period. The performance period for the awards commences on July 1 of the fiscal year in which they were granted and continues for a three-year period, ending on June 30 of the applicable year. The probability of achieving the performance criteria is assessed quarterly. Following the determination of the Company’s achievement with respect to the performance criteria, the amount of shares awarded will be subject to adjustment based on the application of a total shareholder return (“TSR”) modifier. The grant date fair value is determined based on both the assessment of the probability of the Company’s achieving the performance criteria and an estimate of the expected TSR modifier. The TSR modifier estimate is determined by using a Monte Carlo Simulation model, which considers the likelihood of all possible outcomes of long-term market performance. The amount of compensation cost the Company recognizes over the requisite service period is based on management’s best estimate of the achievement of the performance criteria.
The fair value of PSUs vested during the years ended June 30, 2023, 2022, and 2021 was $ 1.7 million, $ 2.1 million, and $ 0.4 million, respectively. A summary of PSU activity within continuing operations for these years is as follows:

12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Repurchase Obligations
Under certain conditions, the Company is obligated to repurchase new inventory repossessed from dealerships by financial institutions that provide credit to the Company’s dealers. See Note 1 for more information regarding the terms and accounting policies related to this obligation. The Company's obligations under such floor plan agreements are subject to various calculations and caps based on amounts currently owed by dealers to these financial institutions and, based on such terms, totaled approximately $ 53.1 million and $ 46.0 million as of June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively. We incurred no material impact from repurchase events during the years ended June 30, 2023, 2022, and 2021 . The Company recorded a repurchase liability of $ 1.6 million and $ 0.7 million as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Purchase Commitments
The Company is engaged in an exclusive contract with a single vendor to provide engines for its MasterCraft performance sport boats. This contract makes this vendor the only supplier to MasterCraft for in-board engines and expires June 30, 2025 . The Company is obligated to purchase a minimum number of engines for each model year under this contract. The Company could also be required to pay a penalty to this vendor in order to maintain exclusivity if annual purchases under the agreement fail to meet a certain volume threshold. We incurred no penalties related to purchase commitments during the years ended June 30, 2023, 2022, and 2021.
Operating Leases
The Company has lease agreements for certain personal and real property. Leases with an initial lease term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. Our lease agreements do not include any significant renewal options. Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at lease inception. Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date. Because the rates implicit in the Company's lease contracts are not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of future
60
payments. The incremental borrowing rate is estimated to approximate the interest rate on a collateralized basis with similar terms and payments, and in economic environments where the leased asset is located. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any initial direct costs and lease payments made prior to lease commencement and excludes lease incentives incurred.
The Company's lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company may enter into lease agreements that contain both lease and non-lease components, which it has elected to account for as a single lease component for all asset classes.
The lease-related balances as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, and activity and costs during the periods presented are not material.
Legal Proceedings
The Company is subject to various litigation, claims and proceedings, which have arisen in the ordinary course of business. The Company accrues for litigation, claims and proceedings when a liability is both probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated.
As of June 30, 2023 , the Company’s accruals for litigation matters are not material. While these matters are subject to inherent uncertainties, management believes that current litigation, claims and proceedings, individually and in aggregate, and after considering expected insurance reimbursements, are not likely to have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 , the Company repurchased 872,055 shares and 975,161 shares of common stock for $ 22.9 million and $ 25.5 million in cash, including related fees and expenses. We did no t repurchase any common stock during fiscal 2021. As of June 30, 2023 , $ 1.6 million remained available under the current authorization.
On July 24, 2023, the board of directors of the Company authorized a new share repurchase program under which the Company may repurchase up to $ 50 million of its outstanding shares of common stock. The new authorization will become effective upon the expiration of the Company's existing $ 50 million share repurchase authorization.

14. SEGMENT INFORMATION
Reportable Segments
Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the CODM in making decisions on how to allocate resources and assess performance. For the year ended June 30, 2023, the Company’s CODM regularly assessed the operating performance of the Company’s boat brands under three operating and reportable segments:
• The MasterCraft segment produces boats at its Vonore, Tennessee facility. These are premium recreational performance sport boats primarily used for water skiing, wakeboarding, wake surfing, and general recreational boating.
• The Crest segment produces pontoon boats at its Owosso, Michigan facility. Crest’s boats are primarily used for general recreational boating.
• The Aviara segment produces luxury day boats at its Merritt Island, Florida facility. Aviara boats are primarily used for general recreational boating.
Each segment distributes its products through its own independent dealer network. Each segment also has its own management structure which is responsible for the operations of the segment and is directly accountable to the CODM for the operating performance of the segment, which is regularly assessed by the CODM who allocates resources based on that performance.
The Company files a consolidated income tax return and does not allocate income taxes and other corporate-level expenses, including interest, to operating segments. All material corporate costs are included in the MasterCraft segment.
Selected financial information for the Company’s reportable segments was as follows:
