1.	GENERAL

	The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (all of which consisted of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2009.

	The balance sheet at December 31, 2008 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.

	For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.

	A group that includes the Company’s Chairman of the Board, R. Randall Rollins and his brother Gary W. Rollins, who is also director of the Company, and certain companies under their control, controls in excess of fifty percent of the Company’s voting power.

	The Company has considered subsequent events through August 5, 2009, the date of issuance, in preparing the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto.

2.	EARNINGS PER SHARE

	Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) 128, “Earnings Per Share,” requires a basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share presentation. The two calculations differ as a result of the dilutive effect of stock options and time lapse restricted shares and performance restricted shares included in diluted earnings per share, but excluded from basic earnings per share. Basic and diluted earnings per share are computed by dividing net (loss) income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the respective periods. A reconciliation of weighted average shares outstanding is as follows:

In June 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) EITF 03-6-1, “Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities,” to clarify that all outstanding unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents, whether paid or unpaid, are participating securities. An entity must include participating securities in its calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) pursuant to the two-class method, as described in FASB Statement 128, Earnings per Share. The Company has periodically issued share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends. The Company evaluated the impact of FSP EITF 03-6-1 and determined that the impact was not material and determined the basic and diluted earnings per share amounts as reported are equivalent to the basic and diluted earnings per share amounts calculated under FSP EITF 03-6-1.

3.	RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

	Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements:

	Financial Accounting Standards Board Statements

	In May 2009, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Standards (SFAS) No. 165, “Subsequent Events.” Statement 165 establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. SFAS 165 provides guidance regarding the period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements; the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements; and the disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date. The Company adopted SFAS 165 in the second quarter of 2009 and the adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

	Financial Accounting Standards Board Staff Positions and Interpretations

	In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP SFAS 157-4, “Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly.” FSP SFAS 157-4 affirms that the objective of fair value when the market for an asset is not active is the price that would be received to sell the asset in an orderly transaction, and includes additional factors for determining whether there has been a significant decrease in market activity for an asset when the market for that asset is not active. FSP SFAS 157-4 requires an entity to base its conclusion about whether a transaction was not orderly on the weight of the evidence. The Company adopted FSP 157-4 in the second quarter of 2009 and the adoption of this FSP did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

	In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP SFAS 115-2 and SFAS 124-2, “Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments.” FSP SFAS 115-2 and SFAS 124-2 (i) changes existing guidance for determining whether an impairment is other than temporary to debt securities and (ii) replaces the existing requirement that the entity’s management assert it has both the intent and ability to hold an impaired security until recovery with a requirement that management assert: (a) it does not have the intent to sell the security; and (b) it is more likely than not it will not have to sell the security before recovery of its cost basis. Under FSP SFAS 115-2 and SFAS 124-2, declines in the fair value of held-to-maturity and available-for-sale securities below their cost that are deemed to be other than temporary are reflected in earnings as realized losses to the extent the impairment is related to credit losses. The amount of the impairment related to other factors is recognized in other comprehensive income. The Company adopted this FSP in the second quarter of 2009 and the adoption of this FSP did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

MARINE PRODUCTS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


	In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP SFAS 107-1 and APB 28-1, “Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments.” FSP SFAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 amends SFAS 107, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments,” to require an entity to provide disclosures about fair value of financial instruments in interim financial information and amends Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 28, “Interim Financial Reporting,” to require those disclosures in summarized financial information at interim reporting periods. Under FSP SFAS 107-1 and APB 28-1, a publicly traded company shall include disclosures about the fair value of its financial instruments whenever it issues summarized financial information for interim reporting periods. In addition, entities must disclose, in the body or in the accompanying notes of its summarized financial information for interim reporting periods and in its financial statements for annual reporting periods, the fair value of all financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value, whether recognized or not recognized in the statement of financial position, as required by SFAS 107. The Company adopted this FSP in the second quarter of 2009. See Note 12 for related disclosures.

	Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted:

	Financial Accounting Standards Board Statements

	In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168, “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162.” SFAS 168 establishes the Codification as the single source of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles in addition to the rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws. Statement 168 and the Codification are effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. When effective, the Codification will supersede all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. As required, the Company plans to adopt SFAS 168 in the third quarter of 2009 and does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

	In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167, “Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R).” SFAS 167 changes how a reporting entity determines when an entity that is insufficiently capitalized or is not controlled through voting (or similar rights) should be consolidated. The determination of whether a reporting entity is required to consolidate another entity is based on, among other things, the other entity’s purpose and design and the reporting entity’s ability to direct the activities of the other entity that most significantly impact the other entity’s economic performance. SFAS 167 is effective January 1, 2010, for a calendar year-end entity, with early application not being permitted. Adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

MARINE PRODUCTS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


	In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 166, “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets,” SFAS 166 is a revision to SFAS No. 140, “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities”, and requires more information about transfers of financial assets, including securitization transactions, and where entities have continuing exposure to the risks related to transferred financial assets. It eliminates the concept of a “qualifying special-purpose entity,” changes the requirements for derecognizing financial assets, and requires additional disclosures. SFAS 166 is effective January 1, 2010, for a calendar year-end entity, with early application not being permitted. Adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

	Financial Accounting Standards Board Staff Positions and Interpretations

	In December 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) FAS 132R-1, “Employers’ Disclosures about Postretirement Benefit Plan Assets.” The FASB issued the FSP, which amends FASB Statement 132R, Employers’ Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits, in order to provide adequate transparency about the types of assets and associated risks in employers’ postretirement plans. Disclosures are designed to provide an understanding of how investment decisions are made: the major categories of plan assets; the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure the fair value of plan assets; the effect of fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs on changes in plan assets for the period; and significant concentrations of risk within plan assets The disclosures about plan assets required by this FSP are required to be provided for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2009, with no restatement required for earlier periods that are presented for comparative purposes, upon initial application. Earlier application of the provisions of this FSP is permitted. The Company is currently in the process of determining the additional disclosures required upon the adoption of this FSP.

6.	MARKETABLE SECURITIES

	Marine Products maintains investments held with a large, well-capitalized financial institution. Management determines the appropriate classification of debt securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates such designations as of each balance sheet date. Debt securities are classified as available-for-sale because the Company does not have the intent to hold the securities to maturity. Available-for-sale securities are stated at their fair values, with the unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method. Realized gains and losses, declines in value judged to be other than temporary, interest and dividends on available-for-sale securities are included in interest income. The fair value and the unrealized gains (losses) of the available-for-sale securities are as follows:

7.	WARRANTY COSTS AND OTHER CONTINGENCIES

	Warranty Costs The Company warrants the entire boat, excluding the engine, against defects in materials and workmanship for a period of one year. The Company also warrants the entire deck and hull, including its bulkhead and supporting stringer system, against defects in materials and workmanship for periods ranging from five to ten years.


	An analysis of the warranty accruals for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 is as follows:


(in thousands)	2009			2008
Balance at beginning of year	$	3,567		$	4,768
Less: Payments made during the period		(1,573	)		(2,244	)
Add: Warranty provision for the period		506			2,308
Changes to warranty provision for prior years		329			(134	)
Balance at June 30	$	2,829		$	4,698

	Repurchase Obligations

	The Company is a party to various agreements with third party lenders that provide floor plan financing to qualifying dealers whereby the Company guarantees varying amounts of debt on boats in dealer inventory. The Company’s obligation under these guarantees becomes effective in the case of a default under the financing arrangement between the dealer and the third party lender. The agreements provide for the return of repossessed boats in “like new” condition to the Company, in exchange for the Company’s assumption of specified percentages of the debt obligation on those boats, up to certain contractually determined dollar limits by lender.

	As a result of dealer defaults, the Company became contractually obligated to repurchase inventory for approximately $2.6 million during the fourth quarter of 2008 and approximately $5.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2009. At December 31, 2008, the amount payable to floor plan lenders for inventory repurchases was $2.4 million and as June 30, 2009, all repurchase obligations due to lenders have been paid in full. As of June 30, 2009, there were no repossessed boats remaining in inventory as the Company redistributed all repurchased boats among existing and replacement dealers. The Company recorded costs in connection with these repurchases of approximately $0.7 million during the first quarter of 2009 and $0.2 million during the second quarter of 2009 in selling, general and administrative expenses.

	Management continues to monitor the risk of additional defaults and resulting repurchase obligations based in part on information provided by the third-party floor plan lender and will adjust the guarantee liability at the end of each reporting period based on information reasonably available at that time. As of June 30, 2009, the fair value of the remaining guarantee liability is $50 thousand.

MARINE PRODUCTS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


	Historically, and during most of 2008, there were at least two major marine dealer floor plan financing institutions. At the end of 2008, one of these institutions announced that it would cease floor plan lending to all unaffiliated dealers including those in the marine industry. Subsequent to June 30, 2009, an amendment to the current agreement with one of the Company's lenders has been executed with a contractual repurchase limit of $9.0 million effective January 1, 2009 which will expire June 30, 2010. The Company has contractual repurchase agreements with two additional lenders with an aggregate remaining repurchase obligation of approximately $2.1 million which effectively expire June 30, 2010. Effective July 1, 2009, the Company has an aggregate remaining repurchase obligation dollar limit of approximately $6.5 million with these three financing institutions.

8.	BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION

	The Company has only one reportable segment, its powerboat manufacturing business; therefore, the majority of the disclosures required by SFAS 131 are not relevant to the Company. In addition, the Company’s results of operations and its financial condition are not significantly reliant upon any single customer or product model.

9.	INVENTORIES

Inventories consist of the following:


(in thousands)	June 30, 2009		December 31, 2008
Raw materials and supplies	$	8,850	$	11,052

Work in process		1,789		5,095

Finished goods		2,060		6,306
Total inventories	$	12,699	$	22,453

10.	INCOME TAXES

	The Company determines its periodic income tax (benefit) provision based upon the current period income and the annual estimated tax rate for the Company adjusted for any change to prior year estimates. The estimated tax rate is revised, if necessary, as of the end of each successive interim period during the fiscal year to the Company’s current annual estimated tax rate.

MARINE PRODUCTS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

	For the second quarter of 2009, the income tax benefit reflects an effective tax rate of 35.3 percent, compared to an effective tax rate of 22.6 percent for the comparable period in the prior year. For the six months ended June 30, 2009, the income tax benefit reflects an effective tax rate of 38.2 percent, compared to an effective tax rate of 25.7 percent for the comparable period in the prior year. The increase in the effective rate was due primarily to the relationship of our pretax income (loss) to permanent differences between book and taxable income.

11.	EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN

	The Company participates in a multiple employer pension plan. The following represents the net periodic benefit cost (credit) and related components for the plan:

	The Company does not currently expect to make any contributions to this plan in 2009.

12.	FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

	The Company adopted SFAS 157, “Fair Value Measurements,” and FSP 157-2, “Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157,” in the first quarter of 2008. SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure requirements about items measured at fair value. SFAS 157 does not require any new fair value measurements. It applies to accounting pronouncements that already require or permit fair value measures. As a result, the Company will not be required to recognize any new assets or liabilities at fair value. FSP 157-2 delays the effective date of SFAS 157 for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis.

MARINE PRODUCTS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SFAS 157 establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between assumptions based on market data (observable inputs) and the Company’s assumptions (unobservable inputs). The hierarchy consists of three broad levels as follows:

	Level 1 – Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
	Level 2 – Inputs other than level 1 that are either directly or indirectly observable
	Level 3 – Unobservable inputs developed using the Company’s estimates and assumptions, which reflect those that market participants would use.

Securities:

The Company determines the fair value of marketable securities that are available for sale and investments in the non-qualified plan that are trading using quoted market prices. The adoption of SFAS 157 had no effect on the Company’s valuation of these marketable securities or investments.

The following table summarizes the valuation of financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis in the balance sheet as of June 30, 2009:


	Fair value Measurements at June 30, 2009 with
(in thousands)	Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1)		Significant other observable inputs (Level 2)		Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3)
Assets:
Trading securities	$	4,010	$	—	$	—
Available for sale securities	$	45,515	$	—	$	—

The carrying amount of other financial instruments reported in the balance sheet for current assets and current liabilities approximate their fair values because of the short term maturity of these instruments.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities — including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115.” This statement permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. This statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, including interim periods within that fiscal year. The Company did not elect the fair value option for any of its existing financial instruments and the Company has not determined whether or not it will elect this option for financial instruments it may acquire in the future.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

Marine Products Corporation, through our wholly-owned subsidiaries Chaparral and Robalo, is a leading manufacturer of recreational fiberglass powerboats. Our sales and profits are generated by selling the products that we manufacture to a network of independent dealers who in turn sell the products to retail customers. These dealers are located throughout the continental United States and in several international markets. A majority of these dealers finance their inventory through third-party floorplan lenders, who pay Marine Products generally within seven to 10 days after delivery of the products to the dealers.

The discussion on business and financial strategies of the Company set forth under the heading “Overview” in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 is incorporated herein by reference. There have been no significant changes in the strategies since year-end.

In implementing these strategies and attempting to optimize our financial returns, management closely monitors dealer orders and inventories, the production mix of its various models, and indications of near term demand such as consumer confidence, interest rates, fuel costs, dealer orders placed at our annual dealer conferences, and retail attendance and orders at annual winter boat show exhibitions. We also consider trends related to certain key financial and other data, including our market share, unit sales of our products, average selling price per unit, and gross profit margins, among others, as indicators of the success of our strategies. Marine Products’ financial results are affected by consumer confidence — because pleasure boating is a discretionary expenditure, interest rates and credit availability — because many retail customers finance the purchase of their boats, and other socioeconomic and environmental factors such as availability of leisure time, consumer preferences, demographics and the weather.

Our production levels were maintained at very low levels during the first six months of 2009 in response to our concerns about dealer and consumer demand for products in our industry, which resulted from continued problems in the housing market, high fuel prices and concern regarding a general economic slowdown. In the second quarter of 2009, our production levels were significantly lower than the levels during the second quarter of 2008. Despite ongoing cost reduction efforts, the Company sustained an operating loss during the second quarter of 2009 primarily due to manufacturing cost inefficiencies as a result of very low production levels and sales to dealers, as well as additional expenses recorded for our dealer inventory reduction programs. However, as a result of our inventory reduction efforts, our dealer inventory levels are down 45% in comparison to the same period in 2008. Consistent with the overall reduction in demand for recreational products, including fiberglass boats, our unit backlog at the end of the quarter has declined significantly in comparison to this time last year.

MARINE PRODUCTS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

OUTLOOK

The discussion on the outlook for 2009 is incorporated herein by reference from the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008.

The weak dealer and customer demand for recreational boats that began almost four years ago continued during the second quarter of 2009. The ongoing recession and lack of consumer financing continued to prevent consumers from making large discretionary purchases. The continued real estate downturn, particularly in key boating markets, also continued to affect the recreational boating industry. Cool, rainy weather in the Northeast, which has a short boating season, may have also reduced retail demand in this important market for the Company’s products. These factors combined to make the 2009 retail selling season weaker than last year. The ongoing curtailment of business lending has also made it difficult for dealers to secure inventory financing, which has reduced their ability to carry large amounts of inventory. As of the end of the second quarter of 2009, the Company has an agreement in place with a large floor plan lender for the 2010 model year on terms which the Company believes are consistent with current conditions in the credit markets. While this floor plan lender has not yet reached agreement with our individual dealers, the Company believes at this time that such agreements will be reached and that inventory financing will be available for our dealers in the upcoming model year.

Marine Products does not believe that there are any near-term catalysts which will improve the retail selling environment for our products, and as a result, we have continued to maintain lower production levels in order to manage dealer inventory. We have accomplished this by plant consolidation in the fourth quarter of 2008 and additional workforce reductions, as well as periodically idling our manufacturing operations on a regular, planned schedule. In addition, the weak selling environment and dealer inventory levels required us to develop sales incentive programs in 2009 designed to sell dealer boat inventory. We developed a new retail incentive program to be in effect during the 2009 spring retail selling season, which has been in effect through the second quarter of 2009. We believe that this program benefited our dealers by enhancing their short-term financial results, and we believe that this program will benefit our dealers and the Company by enabling us to produce and sell current-year models when retail demand returns. However, the cost of this retail incentive program totaling approximately $4.3 million contributed to us realizing a significant operating loss for the second quarter of 2009.

The Company’s strategy at the present time is to produce an appropriate quantity of 2010 model-year products in order to meet firm demand and preserve the value of our brand names, while continuing a prudent amount of product development efforts for the future. In addition, we will continue to monitor dealer field inventory as we begin to ship products produced during the 2010 model year. We are also monitoring the long-term effects of the protracted downturn in our industry in order to take advantage of opportunities that may arise due to the financial difficulties of other manufacturers. Such opportunities may include gaining new dealers or increasing market share as other manufacturers become insolvent.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Key operating and financial statistics for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 follow:


($ in thousands)	Three months ended June 30						Six months ended June 30
	2009			2008			2009			2008

Warranty expense	$	188		$	930		$	835		$	2,174

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2009 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2008

Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2009 decreased $43.1 million or 77.4 percent compared to the comparable period in 2008. The change in net sales was due primarily to an 80.4 percent decrease in the number of boats sold partially offset by a 9.6 percent increase in the average gross selling price per boat. Unit sales among all models declined significantly compared to the prior year, due to our dealers meeting retail demand by liquidating existing inventory. Sales of the Chaparral Sunesta Wide Techs and Xtremes and sales of several Premiere Sports Yachts during the quarter accounted for the increase in the average selling price per boat. In the second quarter of 2009, sales outside of the United States accounted for 22.5 percent of net sales compared to 37.9 percent of net sales in the prior year.

Cost of goods sold for the three months ended June 30, 2009 was $12.2 million compared to $44.7 million for the comparable period in 2008, a decrease of $32.6 million or 72.8 percent. Cost of goods sold, as a percentage of net sales, increased primarily as the result of significant manufacturing cost inefficiencies due to very low production volumes and sales.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2009 were $6.8 million compared to $6.6 million for the comparable period in 2008, an increase of $0.2 million or 2.3 percent. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to $4.3 million in expenses for dealer inventory reduction efforts, partially offset by decreases in other expenses which vary with sales and profitability, as well as the impact of ongoing cost reduction measures. Warranty expense was 1.5 percent of net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to 1.7 percent in the prior year. Additionally, costs incurred during the second quarter of 2009 in connection with boat repurchase obligations totaled approximately $0.2 million.

MARINE PRODUCTS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Operating (loss) income for the three months ended June 30, 2009 decreased $10.7 million compared to the comparable period in 2008. Operating loss was primarily due to a significant decline in gross profit and higher selling, general and administrative expenses.

Interest income was $0.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2009 and $0.6 million for the comparable period in 2008. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in the short term interest rates compared to prior year.

Income tax (benefit) provision for the three months ended June 30, 2009 of $(2.1) million was $3.2 million lower than the income tax provision of $1.1 million for the comparable period in 2008. The income tax benefit for the three months ended June 30, 2009 reflects a beneficial effective tax rate of 35.3 percent, compared to an effective tax rate of 22.6 percent for the comparable period in the prior year. The change in the effective tax rate was due primarily to the relationship of our pretax income (loss) to permanent differences between book and taxable income.

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2009 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2008

Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2009 decreased $94.9 million or 78.2 percent compared to the comparable period in 2008. The change in net sales was due primarily to a 79.0 percent decrease in the number of boats sold partially offset by a 4.4 percent increase in average gross selling price per boat. Unit sales among all models declined significantly compared to the prior year. Sales of the Chaparral Sunesta Wide Techs and Xtremes in addition to the sales of several Premiere Sports Yachts accounted for the increase in the average selling price per boat. For the six months ended June 30, 2009, sales outside of the United States accounted for 29.0 percent of net sales compared to 34.9 percent of net sales in the prior year.

Cost of goods sold for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was $26.0 million compared to $96.8 million for the comparable period in 2008, a decrease of $70.8 million or 73.1 percent. Cost of goods sold, as a percentage of net sales, increased primarily as the result of significant manufacturing cost inefficiencies due to very low production volumes and sales.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2009 were $11.5 million compared to $14.9 million for the comparable period in 2008, a decrease of $3.4 million or 22.9 percent. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to the variable nature of many of these expenses, including incentive compensation, which declined as a percentage of sales consistent with lower sales and profitability, and warranty expense partially offset by $4.3 million in expenses for dealer inventory reduction efforts. Also, salary, research and development and advertising expenses were lower due to cost control measures instituted in the past year. Additionally, costs incurred during the six month ended June 30, 2009 in connection with boat repurchase obligations totaled approximately $0.7 million.

MARINE PRODUCTS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Operating (loss) income for the six months ended June 30, 2009 decreased $10.7 million compared to the comparable period in 2008. Operating loss was primarily due to a significant decline in gross profit partially offset by a decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses.

Interest income was $0.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2009 and $1.2 million for the comparable period in 2008. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in the short term interest rates compared to prior year.

Income tax (benefit) provision for the six months ended June 30, 2009 of $(3.9) million was $6.7 million lower than the income tax provision of $2.8 million for the comparable period in 2008. The income tax benefit for the six months ended June 30, 2009 reflects an effective tax rate of 38.2 percent, compared to an effective tax rate of 25.7 percent for the comparable period in the prior year. The change in the effective rate was due primarily to the relationship of our pretax income (loss) to permanent differences between book and taxable income.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash Flows

The Company’s cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2009 were $10.1 million. The following table sets forth the historical cash flows for:


(in thousands)	Six months ended June 30,
	2009			2008

Net cash provided by operating activities	$	4,640		$	18,619
Net cash provided by (used for) investing activities		1,322			(7,183	)
Net cash used for financing activities	$	(441	)	$	(5,694	)

Cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2009 decreased approximately $14.0 million compared to the comparable period in 2008. This decrease is primarily the result of a decrease in net earnings and the payment of repurchase obligations to lenders partially offset by lower working capital requirements for inventory and accounts receivable consistent with lower sales in 2009 compared to 2008.

Cash provided by investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2009 increased approximately $8.5 million compared to the comparable period in 2008, which resulted primarily from the sales of long-term marketable securities in 2009.

Cash used for financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2009 decreased approximately $5.3 million primarily due to a reduction in dividends paid per share during 2009 compared to 2008 coupled with lower cost of common share repurchases in 2009.

Financial Condition and Liquidity

The Company believes that the liquidity provided by existing cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, its overall strong capitalization, and cash generated from operations, will provide sufficient capital to meet the Company’s requirements for the next twelve months.

The Company’s decisions about the amount of cash to be used for investing and financing purposes are influenced by its capital position and the expected amount of cash to be provided by operations.

Cash Requirements

The Company currently expects that capital expenditures during 2009 will be approximately $365 thousand, of which $62 thousand has been spent through June 30, 2009.

MARINE PRODUCTS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

The Company participates in a multiple employer Retirement Income Plan, sponsored by RPC, Inc. (“RPC”). The Company does not currently expect to make any contributions to this plan during 2009.

On April 28, 2009, the Board of Directors voted to suspend the quarterly cash dividend to common stockholders.

On January 22, 2008, the Board of Directors authorized an additional 3,000,000 shares that the Company may repurchase, increasing the number of shares available for repurchase. The Company has purchased a total of 4,925,157 shares in the open market as of June 30, 2009. As of June 30, 2009, there are 3,324,843 shares that remain available for repurchase. The Company did not repurchase any shares under this program during the six months ended June 30, 2009.

The Company incurred obligations for inventory repurchases totaling approximately $5.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2009 resulting from dealer defaults on floor plan financing. As of June 30, 2009, there are no outstanding amounts due to lenders for inventory repurchases and all repossessed boats have been redistributed among existing and replacement dealers. If additional dealers experience financial difficulty as a result of the current market conditions, the Company may incur additional repurchase obligations under current programs or programs initiated in the future for the 2010 model year. See further information regarding repurchase obligations in Note 7 of the Consolidated Financial Statements and in the section below titled “Off Balance Sheet Arrangements.”

The Company warrants the entire boat, excluding the engine, against defects in materials and workmanship for a period of one year. The Company also warrants the entire deck and hull, including its bulkhead and supporting stringer system, against defects in materials and workmanship for periods ranging from five to ten years. See Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a detail of activity in the warranty accruals during the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008.

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

To assist dealers in obtaining financing for the purchase of its boats for inventory, the Company has entered into agreements with various third-party floor plan lenders whereby the Company guarantees varying amounts of debt for qualifying dealers on boats in inventory. The Company’s obligation under these guarantees becomes effective in the case of a default under the financing arrangement between the dealer and the third-party lender. The agreements provide for the return of all repossessed boats in “like new” condition to the Company, in exchange for the Company’s assumption of specified percentages of the debt obligation on those boats, up to certain contractually determined dollar limits which vary by lender. As a result of dealer defaults, the Company became contractually obligated to repurchase dealer inventory for approximately $5.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2009.

Management continues to monitor the risk of additional defaults and resulting repurchase obligation based in part on information provided by the third-party floor plan lenders and will adjust the guarantee liability at the end of each reporting period based on information reasonably available at that time. See further information regarding repurchase obligations in Note 7 of the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Historically, and during most of 2008, there were at least two major marine dealer floor plan financing institutions. At the end of 2008, one of these institutions announced that it would cease floor plan lending to all unaffiliated dealers including those in the marine industry. Subsequent to June 30, 2009, an amendment to the current agreement with one of the Company's lenders has been executed with a contractual repurchase limit of $9.0 million effective January 1, 2009 which will expire June 30, 2010. The Company has contractual repurchase agreements with two additional lenders with an aggregate remaining repurchase obligation of approximately $2.1 million which effectively expire June 30, 2010. Effective July 1, 2009, the Company has an aggregate remaining repurchase obligation dollar limit of approximately $6.5 million with these three financing institutions.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

In conjunction with its spin-off from RPC in 2001, the Company and RPC entered into various agreements that define their relationship after the spin-off. A detailed discussion of the various agreements in effect is contained in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008. RPC charged the Company for its allocable share of administrative costs incurred for services rendered on behalf of Marine Products totaling approximately $0.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2009 and approximately $0.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2008.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The discussion of Critical Accounting Policies is incorporated herein by reference from the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008. There have been no significant changes in the critical accounting policies since year-end.

IMPACT OF RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

See Notes 3 and 12 of the Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of recent accounting pronouncements, including the expected dates of adoption and estimated effects on results of operations and financial condition.

SEASONALITY

Marine Products’ quarterly operating results are affected by weather and general economic conditions. Quarterly operating results for the second quarter historically have reflected the highest quarterly sales volume during the year with the first quarter being the next highest sales quarter. However, the results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected in any future period.

MARINE PRODUCTS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

INFLATION

During the third and fourth quarters of 2008, the Company experienced a significant decline in certain material and component costs that include hydrocarbon feedstocks and industrial metals such as copper. The fall in prices has led to lower material costs. During the first and second quarters of 2009, the prices of some of these commodities have increased, although they are still much lower than they were in the second quarter of 2008. We believe that the prices for these commodities will remain stable or will rise in the near term, so no assurance can be given regarding the prices at which they can be purchased in the future. Also, given low retail consumer demand for the Company’s products at the present time, no assurance can be given that the Company will be able to institute price increases to its dealers in the event that the prices of its raw materials and components increase in the future.

New boat buyers typically finance their purchases. Higher inflation typically results in higher interest rates that could translate into an increased cost of boat ownership. Prospective buyers may choose to forego or delay their purchases or buy a less expensive boat in the event that interest rates rise. High inflation and interest rates are not a concern at the present time, although they may become an issue in the future.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements made in this report that are not historical facts are “forward-looking statements” under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements may include, without limitation, the expected effect of recent accounting pronouncements on the Company’s consolidated financial statements; the Company’s estimate of the guarantee liability under dealer floor plan financing arrangements; the Company’s expectation that it will not make any contributions to its pension plan in 2009; the Company’s belief that its dealers will reach agreement with is floor plan lender for inventory financing for the upcoming model year; the Company’s belief that there are not any near-term catalysts which will improve the retail selling environment; the Company’s ability to produce an appropriate quantity of current-year models to meet firm demand and preserve the value of brand names while maintaining a prudent amount of research and development to develop new 2010 models; the Company’s ability to take advantages of opportunities that may arise due to financial difficulties of other manufacturers; the Company’s belief that its liquidity, capitalization and cash expected to be generated from operations will provide sufficient capital to meet the Company’s requirements for the next twelve months; the Company’s expectations about capital expenditures during 2009; that the Company may in the future incur additional repurchase obligations as a result of dealer floor plan financing defaults; the Company’s belief that the fall in prices of many commodities used as raw materials for its manufacturing processes will remain stable or will rise in the near future; the Company’s expectations regarding market risk of its investment portfolio; and the Company’s expectation about the effect of litigation on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. The words “may,” “should,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “seek,” “project,” “estimate,” and similar expressions used in this document that do not relate to historical facts are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements are based on certain assumptions and analyses made by our management in light of its experience and its perception of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors it believes to be appropriate. We caution you that such statements are only predictions and not guarantees of future performance and that actual results, developments and business decisions may differ from those envisioned by the forward-looking statements. Risk factors that could cause such future events not to occur as expected include the following: economic conditions, unavailability of credit and possible decreases in the level of consumer confidence impacting discretionary spending, business interruptions due to adverse weather conditions, increased interest rates, unanticipated changes in consumer demand and preferences, deterioration in the quality of Marine Products’ network of independent boat dealers or availability of financing of their inventory, our ability to insulate financial results against increasing commodity prices, the impact of rising gasoline prices and a weak housing market on consumer demand for our products, competition from other boat manufacturers and dealers, and insurance companies that insure a number of Marine Products’ marketable securities have recently been downgraded, which may cause volatility in the market price of Marine Products’ marketable securities. Additional discussion of factors that could cause the actual results to differ materially from management’s projections, forecasts, estimates and expectations is contained in Marine Products’ Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the year ended December 31, 2008. The Company does not undertake to update its forward-looking statements.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Marine Products does not utilize financial instruments for trading purposes and, as of June 30, 2009, did not hold derivative financial instruments that could expose the Company to significant market risk. Also, as of June 30, 2009, the Company’s investment portfolio, totaling approximately $45.5 million and comprised primarily of municipal debt securities, is subject to interest rate risk exposure. This risk is managed through conservative policies to invest in high-quality obligations that are both short-term and long-term in nature. Because Marine Products’ investment portfolio mix has been allocated towards securities with similar term maturities compared to the end of fiscal year 2008, the risk of material market value fluctuations is not expected to be significantly different from the end of fiscal year 2008 and the Company currently expects no such changes through the remainder of the current year.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures - The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in its Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to its management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

MARINE PRODUCTS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

As of the end of the period covered by this report, June 30, 2009 (the “Evaluation Date”), the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of the Evaluation Date.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting - Management’s evaluation of changes in internal control did not identify any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
