Malibu Boats Inc.
Memorandum
Date: 03 November 2020
To: Mr. Wayne R. Wilson, CFO
CC: Mr. Jim Forjan
From: Anthony Soricelli, Vice-President of Finance
Subject: Capital Budgeting Project Opportunity
After extensive research and analyses, I have discovered an opportunity for Malibu Boats Inc. to expand into the golf cart industry. The golf cart market generates $1.2 BN yearly in revenue (Gambardella), and with aggressive measures, I believe Malibu Boats Inc. could penetrate, expand, and grow within this market. With a moderate level of market share (43.1%), I believe that we could capture at least .025% of
the market share within the first year from a single product launch. I base this off comparing boating and
golfing to each other. In my opinion these two outdoor recreational activities bring in the same crowd. Both required specific skills, a decent amount of money to participate in, and along with most boating and golf activities are connected with being part of clubs. In my own experience I’ve seen many golf clubs and boating clubs attached to one another because the audience is typically attracted to both activities. For example, the Laucala Island of Fiji has a resort where it offers golf and water activities all on the same island. According to a CNN article, it stated, “Total cost for three nights (a minimum stay is three nights), including unlimited 18-hole rounds of golf, from $14,400.” (Dwyer). This goes to show that these two outdoor recreation activities require a hefty bank account to be a part of these activities.
With the being said, I believe Malibu Boats Inc. set up a fantastic board of directors that are well versatile and bring along of experience and knowledge into the business. Out of the 9 board of director
members: I will be assessing Michael K. Hooks (chairman of the board and director), Jack D. Springer (chief executive officer and director) and Mr. James R. Buch (director). Michael K. Hooks brings an extensive experience in investment banking, strategic alternatives, and private equity managing. Along with serving on several boards of successful companies like: Virgin America, Logan’s Roadhouse, Switchcraft, and Pfeiffer Vacuum Technology. Next, is Jack D. Springer who brings more of a boating manufacturing industry experience to the table for Malibu Boats. He does have experience in armor, law
enforcement, defense and plastics manufacturing that brings versatility to the company. Lastly, James R.
Buch, who brings experience of other sectors of outdoor activity products along with technology ties. I believe he is a great fit for them because he brings more of a leadership and advisory experience for manufacturing of consumer products. Just these three board members along bring a wide range of experience and hits on several key factors of running a manufacturing consumer product company.
As the Vice-President of Finance, I believe that this project will align well with the mission and goals of the currently elected Board of Directors and will particularly be attractive to the Innovation & Technology Committee. I understand there are high expectations from the board to deliver greatness and continue the sustainable growth that can be attributed to the current directors. While this is simply one product, it exposes Malibu Boats to a new market with new competitors that don’t have the tradition and culture that is a source of pride within Malibu’s organization. The intentions are to build upon the 13.26% return on assets, the 26.84% return on equity, and the 19.59% return on invested capital, that factors into the profitability boasted in the annual report. Success of the current directors is evident with the Malibu Boats Inc. organization, since there is no credit/bond rating I believe they would
get an A rating at least backed by the stellar current ratio of (477.35M Assets/ 215.82M Liabilities) 0.452%. However, I believe with the amount of equity offered by the new product, Malibu Boats Inc. could capitalize on this given opportunity and continue sustainable growth while minimizing the cost of their large share of liabilities.

Consider two mutually exclusive new product launch projects that Nagano Golf is considering. Assume that the discount rate for
Nagano Golf is 17 percent
Project A: Nagano NP-30. Professional clubs that will take an initial investment of $995,000 at time 0. Next five years (years 1-5) of
sales will generate a consistent cash flow of $452,000 per year. Introduction of new product at year 6 will terminate further cash flows
from this project.
Project B. Nagano NX-20. High-end amateur clubs that will take an initial Investment of $730,000 at time 0. Cash flow at year 1 is
$300,000. In each subsequent year, cash flow will grow at 10 percent per year. Introduction of new product at year 6 will terminate
further cash flows from this project.

Ruba Nasser SAOG is planning to invest in project as part of the organization's growth strategy to
enhance the financial sustainability of the organization. The organization has two options available.
Option 1– Project A – Increase the capacity in Division A
Option 2 – Project B – Increase the capacity in Division B.
Both projects are mutually exclusive. The available capital investment for the Project is RO 250,000.
Due to the limited funds the organization needs to decide on a suitable investment project which will
be part of the sustainable growth strategy.
