About Malibu Boats
Malibu Boats is a designer and manufacturer of power boats in the United States. It is a market leader in performance sport boats, sold under its Malibu and Axis brands. It acquired Cobalt Boats, a producer of sterndrive boats, in 2017, and Pursuit Boats, which makes high-end offshore and outboard motorboats, in 2018. In 2021, it purchased Maverick Boat Group, a seller of flat fishing boats, with exposure to bay, dual console, and center console boats. Most recently, in 2026, it tied up with Saxdor Yachts, focused on adventure dayboats. Malibu has also expanded into boat trailers and accessories, and in 2020, began producing its own engines for its performance sport boats.

What the Analysts think about Malibu Boats
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Malibu Boats stock.
Analyst projections of the future price of Malibu Boats stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Malibu exited fiscal 2026 with strong quarterly momentum: fourth-quarter sales rose 42.7% and corrected adjusted EBITDA increased 59.7% to $31.4 million. Adjusted EBITDA margin reached 10.6%, while dealer inventories and aged stock were reported to be in a healthier position. (SEC, Stock Analysis)
Saxdor gives Malibu a sizeable new growth platform in premium adventure dayboats, contributing $84.3 million of sales in its first four months. Fiscal 2027 guidance calls for $1.08–$1.12 billion of revenue and $101–$109 million of adjusted EBITDA, with further growth expected as domestic production scales. (Malibu Boats, Malibu Boats)
Cash generation and financing flexibility support investment through the downturn. Malibu produced about $43.2 million of free cash flow, refinanced debt to extend maturities to 2031, and authorised a new $70 million share-repurchase programme. (Malibu Boats, GlobeNewswire)
Fiscal 2026 revenue rose 13.3%, but unit volume increased only 0.9%, with lower volumes across the existing segments. That suggests reported growth relied more on Saxdor, pricing and mix than on a broad recovery in core demand, while financing-sensitive buyers remain under pressure. (Malibu Boats, Malibu Boats)
The full-year earnings picture remains weak: GAAP net income fell 88.8% to $1.7 million and adjusted EBITDA declined 1.1% despite higher sales. Gross margin fell to 16.0% from 17.8%, showing that higher material, labour and operating costs have not yet been fully offset. (SEC, Malibu Boats)
Saxdor brings execution and balance-sheet risk just as Malibu is investing in domestic production. Management expects lower first-half margins during the ramp, while long-term debt ended the year at $165.0 million versus $18.0 million a year earlier and pro forma results showed a small net loss.
