Camping World Holdings, Inc. Reports Strong 2022 Results

Camping World Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: CWH) (the “Company” or “CWH”), America’s Recreation Dealer, today reported results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2022.

Marcus Lemonis, Chairman and CEO of Camping World Holdings, Inc. stated, “The last several years of strong performance has bolstered our confidence in the long-term prospects of our business. In light of the short-term softening of demand and new vehicle margin compression, we recognized the need for aggressive annualized cost reductions, starting in the fall of 2022. This includes reduced headcount, the elimination or reduction of underperforming assets, locations, and business lines, while enhancing the wages and benefits of our employees.”

Full Year-over-Year Operating Highlights

  • Revenue was $7.0 billion, an increase of $53.3 million, or 0.8%.
  • Used vehicle revenue was a record $1.9 billion, an increase of $191.4 million, or 11.3%, while new vehicle revenue declined $71.4 million, or 2.2%. Used vehicle unit sales were a record 51,325 units, an increase of 2,387 units, or 4.9%, while new vehicle unit sales were 70,429 units, a decrease of 7,348 units, or 9.4%.
  • Same store used vehicle unit sales increased slightly by 0.1%, while same store new vehicle unit sales decreased 13.6%.
  • Gross profit was $2.3 billion, a decrease of $194.0 million, or 7.9%. Total gross margin was 32.5%, a decrease of 306 basis points driven primarily by the higher cost of new vehicles, which was partially offset by the higher average selling price of new vehicles. Used vehicle gross margin decreased to a lesser extent.
  • Floor plan interest expense was $42.0 million, an increase of $27.9 million, or 197.9%, as a result of the rise in interest rates and the increased average principal balance from higher new vehicle costs, higher borrowings on used vehicles, and relief from the new vehicle supply constraints that existed during much of 2021.
  • Net income was $351.0 million, a decrease of $291.0 million, or 45.3%.
  • Diluted earnings per share of Class A common stock was $3.22 in 2022 versus $6.07 in 2021. Adjusted earnings per share - diluted(1) of Class A common stock was $4.17 in 2022 versus $6.88 in 2021.
  • Adjusted EBITDA(1) was $653.4 million, a decrease of $288.7 million, or 30.6%.
  • New and used vehicle inventories were $1.9 billion, an increase of $360.1 million. This increase was driven primarily by higher new vehicle unit costs, an additional 14 dealership locations, restocking to normalized levels of new vehicles and, to a lesser extent, the strategic growth of our used vehicle business.
  • The Company paid an annualized cash dividend of $2.50 per share of Class A common stock, an increase of $1.02 per share of Class A common stock.

Fourth Quarter-over-Quarter Operating Highlights

  • Revenue was $1.3 billion, a decrease of $97.3 million, or 7.1%.
  • Used vehicle revenue was $392.6 million for the fourth quarter, a decrease of $19.7 million, or 4.8%, and new vehicle revenue declined $72.6 million, or 13.1%. Used vehicle unit sales were 10,334 units for the fourth quarter, a decrease of 335 units, or 3.1%.
  • Same store used vehicle unit sales decreased 7.6% for the fourth quarter, and same store new vehicle unit sales decreased 14.1%.
  • Gross profit was $391.6 million, a decrease of $93.0 million, or 19.2%. Total gross margin was 30.6%, a decrease of 459 basis points driven primarily by the higher cost of new vehicles and the lower average selling price of new vehicles. Used vehicle and products, service and other gross margins decreased to a lesser extent. The products, service and other gross margins declined primarily from clearance and discounting on certain product categories to reduce our retail inventory levels and supply chain costs.
  • Floor plan interest expense was $17.5 million, an increase of $13.3 million, or 315.6%, as a result of the rise in interest rates and the increased average principal balance from higher new vehicle costs, higher borrowings on used vehicles, and relief from the new vehicle supply constraints that existed during much of 2021.
  • At or around December 31, 2022, the Company completed the conversion of certain subsidiaries to limited liability companies resulting in income tax expense of $28.4 million, which was primarily for the write-off of deferred tax assets, net of the release of valuation allowance. The Company expects this conversion will reduce its ongoing income tax expense and reduce its ongoing tax distribution requirements.
  • Net loss was $57.2 million, a decrease of income of $116.5 million, or 196.5%.
  • Diluted loss per share of Class A common stock was $0.79 in 2022 versus diluted earnings per share of Class A common stock of $0.54 in 2021. Adjusted loss per share - diluted(1) of Class A common stock was $0.20 in 2022 versus adjusted earnings per share – diluted(1) of Class A common stock of $0.90 in 2021.
  • Adjusted EBITDA(1) was $20.2 million, a decrease of $111.3 million, or 84.6%.

Comparison of Certain Trends to Pre-COVID-19 Pandemic Periods

Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2021 and continuing through the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company has experienced sequential decreases in new vehicle gross margin, primarily from the higher cost of new vehicles from the lower industry supply of travel trailers and motorhomes for much of 2021. However, fourth quarter 2022 gross margins were higher than the Company experienced in any of the pre-COVID-19 pandemic periods of 2016 to 2019, which we believe are more typical demand environments than during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Additionally, the percentage of total unit sales relating to used vehicles was significantly higher in the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to the pre-COVID-19 pandemic periods of 2016 to 2019. The Company is continuing to execute on its used vehicle strategy, which differentiates it from the competition with proprietary tools, such as the RV Valuator, focus on the development and retention of its service technician team, and investment in its service bay infrastructure.

The following table presents vehicle gross margin and unit sale mix for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and pre-COVID-19 pandemic periods of the three months ended December 31, 2019, 2018, 2017, and 2016 (unaudited):

(Loss) Earnings Per Share

Basic (loss) earnings per share of Class A common stock is computed by dividing net (loss) income attributable to Camping World Holdings, Inc. by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted (loss) earnings per share of Class A common stock is computed by dividing net (loss) income attributable to Camping World Holdings, Inc. by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding adjusted to give effect to potentially dilutive securities.

The following table sets forth reconciliations of the numerators and denominators used to compute basic and diluted (loss) earnings per share of Class A common stock (unaudited):

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), we use the following non-GAAP financial measures: EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, TTM Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net (Loss) Income Attributable to Camping World Holdings, Inc. – Basic, Adjusted Net (Loss)Income Attributable to Camping World Holdings, Inc. – Diluted, Adjusted (Loss) Earnings Per Share – Basic, and Adjusted (Loss) Earnings Per Share – Diluted (collectively the "Non-GAAP Financial Measures"). We believe that these Non-GAAP Financial Measures, when used in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, provide useful information about operating results, enhance the overall understanding of past financial performance and future prospects, and allow for greater transparency with respect to the key metrics we use in our financial and operational decision making. These Non-GAAP Financial Measures are also frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in the Company’s industry and are used by management to evaluate our operating performance, to evaluate the effectiveness of strategic initiatives and for planning purposes. By providing these Non-GAAP Financial Measures, together with reconciliations, we believe we are enhancing investors’ understanding of our business and our results of operations, as well as assisting investors in evaluating how well we are executing our strategic initiatives. In addition, our Senior Secured Credit Facilities use Adjusted EBITDA, as calculated for our subsidiary CWGS Group, LLC, to measure our compliance with covenants such as the consolidated leverage ratio. The Non-GAAP Financial Measures have limitations as analytical tools, and the presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. They should not be construed as an inference that the Company’s future results will be unaffected by any items adjusted for in these Non-GAAP Financial Measures. In evaluating these Non-GAAP Financial Measures, it is reasonable to expect that certain of these items will occur in future periods. However, we believe these adjustments are appropriate because the amounts recognized can vary significantly from period to period, do not directly relate to the ongoing operations of our business and complicate comparisons of our internal operating results and operating results of other companies over time. Each of the normal recurring adjustments and other adjustments described in this section and in the reconciliation tables below help management with a measure of our core operating performance over time by removing items that are not related to day-to-day operations.

The Non-GAAP Financial Measures that we use are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies due to different methods of calculation.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin

We define “EBITDA” as net (loss) income before other interest expense, net (excluding floor plan interest expense), provision for income tax expense and depreciation and amortization. We define “Adjusted EBITDA” as EBITDA further adjusted for the impact of certain noncash and other items that we do not consider in our evaluation of ongoing operating performance. These items include, among other things, loss and expense on debt restructure, long-lived asset impairment, lease termination costs, gains and losses on sale or disposal of assets, net, equity-based compensation, Tax Receivable Agreement liability adjustment, restructuring costs related to the 2019 Strategic Shift, and other unusual or one-time items. We define “Adjusted EBITDA Margin” as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of total revenue. We caution investors that amounts presented in accordance with our definitions of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by our competitors, because not all companies and analysts calculate EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin in the same manner. We present EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin because we consider them to be important supplemental measures of our performance and believe they are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. Management believes that investors’ understanding of our performance is enhanced by including these Non-GAAP Financial Measures as a reasonable basis for comparing our ongoing results of operations.

Adjusted Net (Loss) Income Attributable to Camping World Holdings, Inc. and Adjusted (Loss) Earnings Per Share

We define “Adjusted Net (Loss) Income Attributable to Camping World Holdings, Inc. – Basic” as net (loss) income attributable to Camping World Holdings, Inc. adjusted for the impact of certain non-cash and other items that we do not consider in our evaluation of ongoing operating performance. These items include, among other things, loss and expense on debt restructure, long-lived asset impairment, lease termination costs, gains and losses on sale or disposal of assets, net, equity-based compensation, Tax Receivable Agreement liability adjustment, restructuring costs related to the 2019 Strategic Shift, income tax impact from the conversion of certain subsidiaries, including Camping World, Inc., to limited liability companies (“LLC Conversion”), other unusual or one-time items, the income tax expense effect of these adjustments, and the effect of net (loss) income attributable to non-controlling interests from these adjustments.

We define “Adjusted Net (Loss) Income Attributable to Camping World Holdings, Inc. – Diluted” as Adjusted Net (Loss) Income Attributable to Camping World Holdings, Inc. – Basic adjusted for the reallocation of net (loss) income attributable to non-controlling interests from stock options and restricted stock units, if dilutive, or the assumed redemption, if dilutive, of all outstanding common units in CWGS, LLC for shares of newly-issued Class A common stock of Camping World Holdings, Inc.

We define “Adjusted (Loss) Earnings Per Share – Basic” as Adjusted Net (Loss) Income Attributable to Camping World Holdings, Inc. - Basic divided by the weighted-average shares of Class A common stock outstanding. We define “Adjusted (Loss) Earnings Per Share – Diluted” as Adjusted Net (Loss) Income Attributable to Camping World Holdings, Inc. – Diluted divided by the weighted-average shares of Class A common stock outstanding, assuming (i) the redemption of all outstanding common units in CWGS, LLC for newly-issued shares of Class A common stock of Camping World Holdings, Inc., if dilutive, and (ii) the dilutive effect of stock options and restricted stock units, if any. We present Adjusted Net (Loss) Income Attributable to Camping World Holdings, Inc. – Basic, Adjusted Net (Loss) Income Attributable to Camping World Holdings, Inc. – Diluted, Adjusted (Loss) Earnings Per Share – Basic, and Adjusted (Loss) Earnings Per Share – Diluted because we consider them to be important supplemental measures of our performance and we believe that investors’ understanding of our performance is enhanced by including these Non-GAAP financial measures as a reasonable basis for comparing our ongoing results of operations.

The following table reconciles Adjusted Net (Loss) Income Attributable to Camping World Holdings, Inc. – Basic, Adjusted Net (Loss) Income Attributable to Camping World Holdings, Inc. – Diluted, Adjusted (Loss) Earnings Per Share – Basic, and Adjusted (Loss) Earnings Per Share – Diluted to the most directly comparable GAAP financial performance measure:

(a)

Represents the loss and expense incurred on debt restructure and financing expenses. For the three months ended December 31, 2021, it comprised of $3.0 million in legal and other expenses related to the existing term loan facility. For the year ended December 31, 2021, it comprised of $0.4 million in extinguishment of the original issue discount, $1.0 million in extinguishment of capitalized finance costs related to the previous term loan facility, and $12.1 million in legal and other expenses related to the existing term loan facility.

(b)

Represents the current and deferred income tax expense or benefit effect of the above adjustments, many of which are related to entities with full valuation allowances for which no tax benefit can be currently recognized. This assumption uses an effective tax rate of between 25.4% and 25.5% for the adjustments for the 2022 and 2021 periods, which represents the estimated tax rate that would apply had the above adjustments been included in the determination of our non-GAAP metric.

(c)

Represents long-lived asset impairment charges related to the RV and Outdoor Retail segment, which includes locations affected by the 2019 Strategic Shift.

(d)

Represents the loss on termination of operating leases, relating primarily to the 2019 Strategic Shift, resulting from the lease termination fees and the derecognition of the operating lease assets and liabilities.

(e)

Represents an adjustment to eliminate the gains and losses on disposals and sales of various assets.

(f)

Represents non-cash equity-based compensation expense relating to employees, directors, and consultants of the Company.

(g)

Represents an adjustment to eliminate the loss on remeasurement of the Tax Receivable Agreement primarily due to changes in our effective income tax rate.

(h)

Represents restructuring costs relating to our 2019 Strategic Shift. These restructuring costs include other associated costs. These costs exclude lease termination costs, which are presented separately above (see (d) above).

(i)

For the three months and year ended December 31, 2022, the Company recognized $28.4 million of income tax expense relating to the LLC Conversion. This income tax expense was primarily from the write-off of deferred tax assets.

(j)

Represents the adjustment to net (loss) income attributable to non-controlling interests resulting from the above adjustments that impact the net (loss)

income of CWGS, LLC. This adjustment uses the non-controlling interest’s weighted average ownership of CWGS, LLC of 49.9% and 48.7% for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and 49.8% and 49.1% for the year ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

(k)

Represents the reallocation of net (loss) income attributable to non-controlling interests from the impact of the assumed change in ownership of CWGS, LLC from stock options, restricted stock units, and/or common units of CWGS, LLC.

(l)

Represents the income tax expense effect of the above adjustment for reallocation of net (loss) income attributable to non-controlling interests. This assumption uses an effective tax rate of between 25.4% and 25.5% for the adjustments for 2022 and 2021.

(m)

Typically represents adjustments to reflect the income tax benefit of losses of consolidated C-corporations that under the Company’s equity structure, prior to the LLC Conversion, could not be used against the income of other consolidated subsidiaries of CWGS, LLC. However, for the three months and the year ended December 31, 2021, this adjustment included the reversal of the $0.7 million benefit and $15.2 million benefit, respectively, from changes in the valuation allowance for Camping World, Inc. Subsequent to the redemption of all common units in CWGS, LLC and prior to the LLC Conversion, the Company believes certain actions could be taken such that the C-corporations’ losses could offset income of other consolidated subsidiaries. The adjustment reflects the income tax benefit assuming effective tax rate of between 25.4% and 25.5% during the 2022 and 2021 periods for the losses experienced by the consolidated C-corporations for which valuation allowances have been recorded. No assumed release of valuation allowance established for previous periods were included in these amounts. The $0.7 million and $15.2 million releases of valuation allowance during the three months and the year ended December 31, 2021, respectively, were considered to be reversed and excluded from adjusted net income attributable to Camping World Holdings, Inc. – diluted for purposes of this calculation. Beginning in 2023, these C-corporation losses will offset income of other consolidated subsidiaries as a result of LLC Conversion at or around December 31, 2022.

(n)

Represents the impact to the denominator for stock options, restricted stock units, and/or common units of CWGS, LLC.

(o)

The below amounts have not been considered in our adjusted (loss) earnings per share – diluted amounts as the effect of these items are anti-dilutive.

(p)

Represents the per share impact of the Non-GAAP adjustments to net (loss) income detailed above (see (a) through (i) above).

(q)

Represents the per share impact of stock options, restricted stock units, and/or common units of CWGS, LLC from the difference in their dilutive impact between the GAAP and Non-GAAP (loss) earnings per share calculations.

Our “Up-C” corporate structure may make it difficult to compare our results with those of companies with a more traditional corporate structure. There can be a significant fluctuation in the numerator and denominator for the calculation of our adjusted (loss) earnings per share – diluted depending on if the common units in CWGS, LLC are considered dilutive or anti-dilutive for a given period. To improve comparability of our financial results, users of our financial statements may find it useful to review our (loss) earnings per share assuming the full redemption of common units in CWGS, LLC for all periods, even when those common units would be anti-dilutive. The relevant numerator and denominator adjustments have been provided under “Anti-dilutive amounts” in the table above (see (o) above).
