BOWLING GREEN, Ky., Aug. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Holley Performance Brands (NYSE: HLLY), a leader in automotive aftermarket performance solutions, today announced financial results for its second quarter ended June听29, 2025.

  • Core business net sales¹ for the second quarter of 2025 grew by 3.9% compared to the second quarter of 2024 after excluding non-core business net sales¹ of approximately $9.0 million for the second quarter of 2024
• Net Income was $10.9 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, compared to $17.1 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, last year

• Adjusted EBITDA² was $36.4 million compared to $38.3 million last year
• Free Cash Flow² was $35.7 million compared to $24.4 million last year; the highest level of Free Cash Flow generated in the history of the company

"We are very pleased with another solid quarter, driven by continued momentum in our core business," said Matthew Stevenson, President and Chief Executive Officer of Holley. "Our team remains focused on executing on our strategic framework, with key progress made in the second quarter. We continue to see strong momentum in our new product launches across all categories in the second quarter which generated roughly $8 million in new product revenue. We are continuing to strengthen our partnerships with B2B customers of all sizes, driving meaningful growth across both our B2B and direct-to-consumer channels. Our ability to grow our core business is supported by strong validation of our product innovation and go-to-market strategy.

Stevenson continued, "As we look ahead, we've tightened our guidance range for both revenue and Adjusted EBITDA to reflect increased visibility which now includes the anticipated impact of recently announced tariffs. Due to our mitigation efforts, specifically through strategic sourcing initiatives as well as targeted pricing actions, based on what we know today, we are forecasting a negligible impact on our business."

"We are successfully navigating the current operating environment, and we remain sharply focused on staying agile amid evolving conditions. Our strategic framework for 2025 continues to serve as a strong roadmap, empowering our team to execute effectively and deliver sustained results over the long term."

Strategic Business Highlights

• Achieved core business net sales growth for the second quarter of 2025 of 3.9% compared to the second quarter of 2024.
• Consecutive quarters of core business sales growth across all divisions.
• Continued execution of strategic framework drove ~$27M in revenue on key initiatives for the second quarter of 2025.鈥�
• Expanded growth across 20+ brands in both DTC and B2B channels

• DTC orders grew over 8.6% during the second quarter of 2025 compared to the comparable period in the prior year, with third-party platforms (Amazon, eBay, etc.) increasing by more than 28%.
• Product innovation and strategic pricing initiatives contributed $10.8 million in revenue for the quarter and $18.7 million year-to-date.
• Execution of tariff mitigation efforts has provided better visibility for full year 2025 guidance.

Outlook

For the year ended December 31, 2025, we have refined our full-year guidance, which now includes the expected net impact of tariffs:

* Holley is not providing reconciliations of forward-looking full year 2025 Adjusted EBITDA outlook and full year 2025 Bank-adjusted EBITDA Leverage Ratio outlook because certain information necessary to calculate the most comparable GAAP measure, net income, is unavailable due to the uncertainty and inherent difficulty of predicting the occurrence and the future financial statement impact of certain items. Therefore, as a result of the uncertainty and variability of the nature and amount of future adjustments, which could be significant, Holley is unable to provide these forward-looking reconciliations without unreasonable effort. Accordingly, Holley is relying on the exception provided by Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Regulation S-K to exclude these reconciliations.

Holley notes that its outlook for the year-ended December 31, 2025 may vary due to changes in assumptions or market conditions and other factors described below under 鈥淔orward-Looking Statements.鈥�

[Financial Tables to Follow]

We present certain information with respect to EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Bank-adjusted EBITDA Leverage Ratio, Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS and Free Cash Flow as supplemental measures of our operating performance and believe that such non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in evaluating our financial performance and in comparing our financial results between periods because they exclude the impact of certain items that we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance. We believe that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures enhances the usefulness of our financial information by presenting measures that management uses internally to establish forecasts, budgets, and operational goals to manage and monitor our business. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures help to depict a more realistic representation of the performance of our underlying business, enabling us to evaluate and plan more effectively for the future.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Bank-adjusted EBITDA Leverage Ratio, Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS and Free Cash Flow are not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (鈥淕AAP鈥�) and may be different from non-GAAP and other financial measures used by other companies. These measures should not be considered as measures of financial performance under GAAP, and the items excluded from or included in these metrics are significant components in understanding and assessing our financial performance. These metrics should not be considered as alternatives to net income, gross profit, net cash provided by operating activities, or any other performance measures, as applicable, derived in accordance with GAAP.

We define EBITDA as earnings before depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, interest expense, and income tax expense. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA adjusted to exclude, to the extent applicable, restructuring costs, which includes operational restructuring and integration activities, termination related benefits, facilities relocation, and executive transition costs; changes in the fair value of the warrant liability; changes in the fair value of the earn-out liability; equity-based compensation expense; gain or loss on the early extinguishment of debt; notable items that we do not believe are reflective of our underlying operating performance, including litigation settlements and certain costs incurred for advisory services related to identifying performance initiatives; and other expenses or gains, which includes gains or losses from disposal of fixed assets, franchise taxes, and gains or losses from foreign currency transactions. We define Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales.

We define the Bank-adjusted EBITDA Leverage Ratio as Net Debt divided by our Bank-adjusted EBITDA for the trailing twelve-month ("TTM") period, as defined under our Credit Agreement entered into in November 2021, as amended, which is used in calculating covenant compliance.

We define Adjusted Net Income as earnings excluding the after-tax effect of changes in the fair value of the warrant liability, changes in the fair value of the earn-out liability, write-downs of assets held-for-sale, and gain or loss on the early extinguishment of debt. We define Adjusted Diluted EPS as Adjusted Net Income on a per share basis. Management uses these measures to focus on on-going operations and believes that it is useful to investors because it enables them to perform meaningful comparisons of past and present consolidated operating results. We believe that using this information, along with net income and net income per diluted share, provides for a more complete analysis of the results of operations.

We define Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by operating activities minus cash payments for capital expenditures, net of dispositions. Management believes providing Free Cash Flow is useful for investors to understand our performance and results of cash generation after making capital investments required to support ongoing business operations.
