Patrick Industries (NASDAQ: PATK) delivered a strong Q4 2025, with revenue of $924M (+9% YoY) and adjusted EPS of $0.84 (+62% YoY), driven by content gains across its Outdoor Enthusiast segments that outperformed declining industry shipment trends.

Q&A Highlights

The earnings call Q&A provided additional color on several key topics:

Content Per Unit Drivers

Asked whether content gains came from mix or share gains, President Jeff Rodino noted: "It's a little bit of a combination of both. Certainly, over our model change, we did pick up some content in a few areas with the composites starting to come into play, some of the electronics, and some further penetration on our core products." Fifth wheels (higher content units) were 22-23% of mix in Q4 vs the typical 20%.

Operating Margin Expansion (70-90 bps Guidance)

CEO Andy Nemeth explained the margin outlook: "When I look at the platform, when I look at our cost structure, we're just really well positioned to support a volume increase and a significant volume increase without adding significant overhead... The opportunity to help bring a low-cost alternative through a full solution to our customers is significant."

Composites Opportunity

Management quantified the composites TAM: "The overall TAM on a long-term basis is about $1.5 billion. On a short term, there's more like about $500 million of attainable." Patrick strategically added >$30M of inventory for composites in Q4 "in preparation of an environment where demand could outpace supply."

Q1 2026 Cadence

On near-term expectations, CEO Nemeth said: "Q1 right now is what I'm going to say, disciplined and thoughtful. We would expect uptick Q2 and Q3 as the selling season occurs... Q1 is patient right now is what I'd say, but thoughtfully patient."

Dealer Inventory Levels

RV dealer inventory stood at 16-18 weeks at quarter-end (up from 14-16 weeks in Q3 but well below historical 26-30 weeks). Marine dealer inventory was 21-23 weeks, down from year-end 2024 and significantly below historical 36-40 weeks.

CFO Transition

Andy Roeder is stepping down as CFO. Matt Filer, previously SVP Finance and Chief Accounting Officer, will take over. CEO Nemeth noted: "We are also extremely confident that Matt Filer's deep financial expertise, organizational leadership, and extensive knowledge of Patrick and our end markets solidifies us and positions us extremely well for the future."

Key Risks and Concerns

Management flagged several risks to monitor:

  1. Housing Weakness: MH wholesale shipments declined 10% in Q4, and consumer confidence plus interest rates remain headwinds to unlocking pent-up demand.

  2. Tariff Exposure: Forward-looking statements cite "imposition of trade restrictions or tariffs" as a risk factor for the supply chain.

  3. Interest Rate Sensitivity: The company has $258.7M in 1.75% convertible notes due December 2028 and $500M in 6.375% senior notes due November 2032.

  4. Cyclicality: RV and Marine are highly cyclical; meaningful retail demand inflection "likely depends on consumer confidence and interest rate improvement."
