Although fuel prices were higher in 2012 than they were in 2011, and economic uncertainty continued throughout the year, the overall selling environment for our products improved. We grew at a rate that was higher than the industry’s growth rate due to the success of our value-priced products and strong performance by our dealer network. 2012 marked the third consecutive year of increased net sales and profitability. Net sales for 2012 were $149.0 million, an increase of 39.9 percent compared to $106.4 million in 2011.

The favorable impact of higher unit sales of these models was partially offset by their lower average selling prices, although average selling prices among many of our other larger models increased slightly. International sales increased by 32.6 percent in 2012 compared to 2011, and were 20.3 percent of net sales in 2012 compared to 21.4 percent in the prior year. Gross profit was $27.2 million, an increase of 39.5 percent compared to $19.5 million in 2011. Gross margin was 18.3 percent in 2011 and 2012. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $18.4 million in 2012, or 12.4 percent of net sales, compared to $14.1 million, As we begin 2013, a number of macroeconomic and company-specific factors encourage us regarding our near-term financial results. Residential real estate, especially in several important recreational boating areas, has stabilized. Consumer confidence and residential real estate continue to improve, and the financing environment for both dealers and consumers remains stable. Attendance and sales during the 2013 winter boat show season were better than in 2012, our order backlog is strong and our dealers’ inventories are stocked with new models available to meet stronger retail demand. or 13.3 percent of net sales in 2011.

LANE, JR. President and Chief Executive Officer Executive Vice President and President, Chaparral Boats, Inc. confident at the helm a slight course correction produces far-reaching positive results Our answer was the Chaparral H2O and value-priced Robalo sportfishing boats. Our Chaparral H2O and value- priced Robalo models are made with the same materials and construction techniques—and built by the same skilled The financial crisis and economic downturn were catalysts employees—as the rest of our boats. We are as proud to offer for a severe downturn in the recreational boating industry, these boats to the marketplace as we are of our other as our customers’ concerns about their immediate financial models. We began producing and selling these models late needs discouraged them from making large, discretionary in calendar year 2011, during the 2012 and 2013 model years. purchases such as pleasure boats. This problem has been exacerbated by the rising cost of boat ownership, due to increases in the cost of raw materials, fuel and other operating costs, as well as increased governmental regulation. However, we also know that our consumers continue to go boating in large numbers, and we have always believed in the long- term future of our business. These factors forced us to think about a course correction that would allow us to continue to benefit from the accumulated value of our design and production expertise, efficient production processes, strong dealer network and brand-name recognition. Our dealers and retail customers responded enthusiastically to these new models, and this strong response was reflected in our 2012 financial results. We generated the highest net sales and net income in 2012 of any year since 2008. Another indication of the success of these models is unprecedented growth in Chaparral’s market share. For the first time in our history, we have held double-digit market share in the 18- to 35-foot sterndrive recreational boat category, and we have returned to our position as the third largest manufacturer within this segment. Furthermore, we are approaching the market share of our larger peers, r305 walkaround interior Signature 310 interior 05 277 ssx because we have accomplished most of these market smaller model Chaparral H2O series has attracted, increasing share gains among smaller boats, a large market segment our overall market share. These customers will enjoy owning in which we have traditionally been under-represented. our boats, and when the time comes to buy a larger boat, We also believe that this course correction is expanding the market for our products. In addition to building a quality boat at a good price, we have made it easy for the customer to buy with confidence, through strong customer service and nationally advertised pricing. During 2012, retail customers who bought our Chaparral H2O were more than twice as likely to be first-time boat buyers as the purchasers of another Chaparral model. This fact demonstrates the increase in first-time customers that our value-priced, we believe that they will choose a Chaparral or Robalo. More American consumers are going boating today than at any other time in the past 15 years, and they expect a boat to have the same technological advances as other consumer products, which means that they are more willing to buy a new boat with these features. This indication of strong consumer demand and our success in attracting the first-time boat buyer positions us very well for the future. Our dealers and retail customers responded enthusiastically to these new models, and … We generated the highest net sales and net income in 2012 of any year since 2008. This customized information, in a user-friendly format at the fingertips of our sales representatives streamlines the sales process and makes it much more effective. We believe this is a cost-effective way to make a meaningful impact with sales prospects, especially those who are new to boating and want to evaluate detailed information in order to make an informed purchasing decision. 06 staying on course with the latest technology Technological advances continue to impact the process of marketing and selling recreational boats. These innovations offer tremendous opportunities to highlight the positive aspects of a product and allow the customer to make an informed decision, and in a crowded marketplace, advanced technology can be a major point of differentiation. In addition, first-time boat buyers expect the same customized, high- technology experience when considering a new boat as with many other consumer products they experience. During 2012, we addressed these opportunities by developing and implementing an iPad® app for our Chaparral and Robalo dealers which includes model specifications, photos, videos, product comparisons, lead generation and the ability to build and price a specific boat with all the features and options a consumer wants. Our iPad app supported our success during the 2013 winter boat show season. At the end of the season, our Global iPad Dealer App won the Marine Marketers of America’s Neptune Award for the best business-to-business iPad application. r247 dual console UNITED STATES SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION Washington, D.C. 20549 (Mark One) FORM 10-K ✕ Annual report pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Transition report pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2012 Commission File No. 1-16263 MARINE PRODUCTS CORPORATION Delaware (State of Incorporation) 58-2572419 (I.R.S.

Business Marine Products manufactures fiberglass motorized boats distributed and marketed through its independent dealer network. Marine Products’ product offerings include Chaparral sterndrive and inboard pleasure boats and Robalo outboard sport fishing boats. Organization and Overview Marine Products is a Delaware corporation incorporated on August 31, 2000, in connection with a spin-off from RPC, Inc. (NYSE: RES) (“RPC”). Effective February 28, 2001, RPC accomplished the spin- off by contributing 100 percent of the issued and outstanding stock of Chaparral to Marine Products, a newly formed wholly owned subsidiary of RPC, and then distributing the common stock of Marine Products to RPC stockholders. Marine Products designs, manufactures and sells recreational fiberglass powerboats in the sportboat, deckboat, cruiser, sport yacht and sport fishing markets. The Company sells its products to a network of 135 domestic and 69 international independent authorized dealers. Marine Products’ mission is to enhance its customers’ boating experience by providing them with high quality, innovative powerboats. The Company intends to remain a leading manufacturer of recreational powerboats for sale to a broad range of consumers worldwide. The Company manufactures Chaparral sterndrive and inboard-powered pleasure boats including H2O Sport and Fish & Ski boats, SSi and SSX Sportboats, Sunesta Sportdecks and Xtreme Tow boats, Signature Cruisers, Premiere Sport Yachts and Robalo outboard sport fishing boats. The most recent available industry statistics [source: Statistical Surveys, Inc. report dated September 30, 2012] indicate that Chaparral is the third largest manufacturer of sterndrive boats in lengths from 18 to 35 feet in the United States. Chaparral was founded in 1965 in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. Chaparral’s first boat was a 15-foot tri-hull design with a retail price of less than $1,000. Over time Chaparral grew by offering exceptional quality and consumer value. In 1976, Chaparral moved to Nashville, Georgia, where a manufacturing facility of a former boat manufacturing company was available for purchase. This provided Chaparral an opportunity to obtain additional manufacturing space and access to a trained work force. With almost 47 years of boatbuilding experience, Chaparral continues to improve the design and manufacturing of its product offerings to meet the growing needs of discriminating recreational boaters. Robalo was founded in 1969 and its first boat was a 19-foot center console salt-water fishing boat, among the first of this type of boat to have an “unsinkable” hull. The Company believes that Robalo’s share of the outboard sport fishing boat market is approximately two percent. 9 Products Marine Products distinguishes itself by offering a wide range of products to the family recreational, cruiser and sport yacht markets through its Chaparral brand, and to the sport fishing market through its Robalo brand.

Manufacturing Marine Products’ manufacturing facilities are located in Nashville, Georgia and Valdosta, Georgia. The Company idled its plant located in Valdosta, Georgia in response to declines in production volumes in a prior year. Marine Products utilizes five different plants to, among other things, manufacture interiors, design new models, create fiberglass hulls and decks, and assemble various end products. Quality control is conducted throughout the manufacturing process. The Company’s manufacturing operations are ISO 9001: 2008 certified, which is an international designation of design, manufacturing, and customer service processes. ISO 9001: 2008 surpasses previous ISO designations. Management believes Chaparral is the third largest sterndrive boat manufacturing brand to hold the ISO 9001: 2008 certification. When fully assembled and inspected, the boats are loaded onto either company-owned trailers or third-party marine transport trailers for delivery to dealers. The manufacturing process begins with the design of a product to meet dealer and customer needs. Plugs are constructed in the research and development phase from designs. Plugs are used to create a mold from which prototype boats can be built. Adjustments are made to the plug design until acceptable parameters are met. The final plug is used to create the necessary number of production molds. Molds are used to produce the fiberglass hulls and decks. Fiberglass components are made by applying the outside finish or gel coat to the mold, then numerous layers of fiberglass and resin are applied during the lamination process over the gel coat. After curing, the hull and deck are removed from the molds and are trimmed and prepared for final assembly, which includes the installation of electrical and plumbing systems, engines, upholstery, accessories and graphics. Product Warranty For most of our Chaparral products, Marine Products provides a lifetime limited structural hull warranty against defects in material and workmanship for the original purchaser, and a five-year limited structural hull warranty for one subsequent owner. Additionally, a non-transferable five-year limited structural deck warranty against defects in materials and workmanship is available to the original owner. Warranties on additional items are provided for periods of one to five years. For our Chaparral Premiere model, Marine Products provides a transferable five-year limited structural hull and deck warranty against defects in material and workmanship for the original and one subsequent owner. A one-year limited warranty is available on most other components to the original owner and one subsequent owner along with warranties on some additional items ranging from one to five years. For our Robalo products, Marine Products provides a transferable ten-year limited structural hull warranty against defects in material and workmanship to the original owner, and a five-year limited hull warranty to one subsequent owner. Additionally, Marine Products provides a transferable one-year limited warranty on other components. The engine manufacturers for our Robalo and Chaparral products warrant engines included in the boats as well. Suppliers Marine Products’ two most significant components used in manufacturing its boats, based on cost, are engines and fiberglass. For each of these, there is currently an adequate supply available in the market. Marine Products has not experienced any material shortages in any of these products. Temporary shortages, when they do occur, usually involve manufacturers of these products adjusting model mixes, introducing new product lines or limiting production in response to an industry-wide reduction in boat demand. Marine Products obtains most of its fiberglass from a leading domestic supplier. Marine Products believes that there are several alternative suppliers if this supplier fails to provide adequate quality or quantities at acceptable prices. Marine Products does not manufacture the engines installed in its boats. Engines are generally specified by the dealers at the time of ordering, usually on the basis of anticipated customer preferences or 11 actual customer orders. Sterndrive engines are purchased through the American Boatbuilders Association (“ABA”), which has entered into engine supply arrangements with Mercury Marine and Volvo Penta, the two currently existing suppliers of sterndrive engines. These arrangements contain incentives and discount provisions, which may reduce the cost of the engines purchased, if specified purchase volumes are met during specified periods of time. Although no minimum purchases are required, Marine Products expects to continue purchasing sterndrive engines through the ABA on a voluntary basis in order to receive volume-based purchase discounts. Marine Products does not have a long-term supply contract with the ABA. Marine Products has an outboard engine supply contract with Yamaha. This engine supply arrangement was not negotiated through the ABA. In the event of a sudden and extended interruption in the supply of engines from these suppliers, our sales and profitability could be negatively impacted. See “Risk Factors” below. Marine Products uses other raw materials in its manufacturing processes. Among these are stainless steel, copper and resins made from hydrocarbon feedstocks. In response to global economic uncertainties, the prices of these commodities have fluctuated significantly over the past several years. During 2011 and 2012, these prices stabilized, but at historically high levels. See “Inflation” below. Sales and Distribution Domestic sales are made through approximately 74 Chaparral dealers, 16 Robalo dealers and 45 dealers that sell both brands located in markets throughout the United States. Marine Products also has 69 international dealers. During 2012 the financial strength of our dealer network improved due to lower field inventories and improved availability of floorplan financing. Most of our dealers inventory and sell boat brands manufactured by other companies, including some that compete directly with our brands. The territories served by any dealer are not exclusive to the dealer; however, Marine Products uses discretion in establishing relationships with new dealers in an effort to protect the mutual interests of the existing dealers and the Company. Marine Products’ seven independent field sales representatives call upon existing dealers and develop new dealer relationships. The field sales representatives are directed by a National Sales Coordinator, who is responsible for developing a full dealer distribution network for the Company’s products. The marketing of boats to retail customers is primarily the responsibility of the dealer. Marine Products supports dealer marketing efforts by supplementing local advertising, sales and marketing follow up in boating magazines, and participation in selected regional, national, and international boat show exhibitions. No single dealer accounted for more than 10 percent of net sales during 2012, 2011 or 2010. Marine Products continues to seek new dealers in many areas throughout the U.S., Europe, South America, Asia, Russia and the Middle East. In general, Marine Products requires payment in full before it will ship a boat overseas. Consequently, there is no credit risk associated with its international sales or risk related to foreign currency fluctuation. The volume of sales to international dealers as a percentage of total net sales declined in 2012 compared to 2011 due to the persistent economic crisis primarily in Europe. International sales demand is also affected by the value of the U.S. dollar relative to other currencies. International net sales as a percentage of total net sales were 20.3 percent in 2012, 21.4 percent in 2011, and 30.5 percent in 2010. Marine Products’ sales orders are indicators of strong interest from its dealers. Historically, dealers have in most cases taken delivery of all their orders. The Company attempts to ensure that its dealers do not accept an excessive amount of inventory by monitoring their inventory levels. Knowledge of inventory levels at the individual dealers facilitates production scheduling with shorter lead times in order to maintain flexibility in the event that adjustments need to be made to dealer shipments. In the past, Marine Products has been able to resell any boat for which an order has been cancelled. Approximately 67 percent of Marine Products’ domestic shipments are made pursuant to “floor plan financing” programs in which Marine Products’ subsidiaries participate on behalf of their dealers with major third-party financing institutions. The remaining dealers finance their boat inventory with smaller regional financial institutions in local markets or pay cash. Under these established arrangements with 12 qualified lending institutions, a dealer establishes a line of credit with one or more of these lenders for the purchase of boat inventory for sales to retail customers in their showroom or during boat show exhibitions. In general, when a dealer purchases and takes delivery of a boat pursuant to a floor plan financing arrangement, it draws against its line of credit and the lender pays the invoice cost of the boat directly to Marine Products generally within 5 business days. When the dealer in turn sells the boat to a retail customer, the dealer repays the lender, thereby restoring its available credit line. Each dealer’s floor plan credit facilities are secured by the dealer’s inventory, letters of credit, and perhaps other personal and real property. Until recently, most dealers maintained financing arrangements with more than one lender, although that is less common at the present time, given that there are fewer lenders. In connection with a dealer’s floor plan financing arrangements with a qualified lending institution, Marine Products or its subsidiaries have agreed to repurchase inventory which the lender repossesses from a dealer and returns to Marine Products in a “new and unused” condition subject to normal wear and tear, as defined. The contractual agreements that Marine Products or its subsidiaries have with these qualified lenders contain the Company’s assumption of specified percentages of the debt obligation on repossessed boats, up to certain contractually determined dollar limits set by the lender. The Company currently has an agreement with one of the floor plan lenders whereby the contractual repurchase amount is limited to a maximum of 15 percent of the average net receivables financed by the floor plan lender for our dealers during the prior 12 month period, which was $5.3 million as of December 31, 2012. The Company has contractual repurchase agreements with additional lenders with an aggregate maximum repurchase obligation of approximately $5.4 million, with various expiration and cancellation terms of less than one year. The aggregate repurchase obligation with all financing institutions was approximately $10.7 million as of December 31, 2012. In the event that a dealer defaults on a credit line, the qualified lender may then invoke the manufacturers’ repurchase obligation with respect to that dealer. In that event, all repurchase agreements of all manufacturers supplying a defaulting dealer are generally invoked regardless of the boat or boats with respect to which the dealer has defaulted. Unlike Marine Products’ obligation to repurchase boats repossessed by qualified lenders, Marine Products is under no obligation to repurchase boats directly from dealers. Marine Products does not sponsor financing programs to the consumer; any consumer financing promotions for a prospective boat purchaser would be the responsibility of the dealer. Marine Products’ dealer sales incentive programs are generally designed to promote early replenishment of the stock in dealer inventories depleted throughout the prime spring and summer selling seasons, and to promote the sales of older models in dealer inventory and particular models during specified periods. These programs help to stabilize Marine Products’ manufacturing between the peak and off-peak periods, and promote sales of certain models. For the 2013 model year (which commenced July 1, 2012), Marine Products offered its dealers several sales incentive programs based on dollar volumes and timing of dealer purchases. Program incentives offered include sales discounts, retail sales incentives and payment of floor plan financing interest charged by qualified floor plan lenders to dealers generally through May 1, 2013. After the interest payment programs end, interest costs revert to the dealer at rates set by the lender. A dealer makes periodic curtailment payments (principal payments) on outstanding obligations against its dealer inventory as set forth in the floor plan financing agreements between the dealer and its particular lender. We believe that our dealers’ inventories of our boat models are appropriate relative to the current level of customer demand; 64 percent of dealers’ inventories are 2013 model year units. The sales order backlog as of December 31, 2012 was approximately 809 boats with estimated net sales of approximately $29.4 million. This represents an approximate 11.6 week backlog based on recent production levels. As of December 31, 2011, the sales order backlog was approximately 900 boats with estimated net sales of $34.9 million, representing an approximate 14 week backlog. The Sales order backlog at December 31, 2011 reflected the significant number of dealer orders obtained upon the successful introduction of the new entry level models in the fourth quarter of 2011. The Company will continue to monitor the number of boats in dealer inventory and is prepared to adjust its production levels as it deems necessary to manage dealer inventory levels. The Company typically does not manufacture a significant number of boats for its own inventory. The Company occasionally manufactures boats for its own inventory because the number 13 of boats required for immediate shipment is not always the most efficient number of boats to produce in a given production schedule. Research and Development Essentially the same technologies and processes are used to produce fiberglass boats by all boat manufacturers. The most common method is open-face molding. This is usually a labor-intensive, manual process whereby employees hand spray and apply fiberglass and resin in layers on open molds to create boat hulls, decks and other smaller fiberglass components. This process can result in inconsistencies in the size and weight of parts, which may lead to higher warranty costs. A single open-face mold is typically capable of producing approximately three hulls per week. Marine Products has been a leading innovator in the recreational boating industry. One of the Company’s most innovative designs is the full-length “Extended V-Plane” running surface on its Chaparral boat models. Typically, sterndrive boats have a several foot gap on the bottom rear of the hull where the engine enters the water. With the Extended V-Plane, the running surface extends the full length to the rear of the boat. The benefit of this innovation is more deck space, better planning performance and a more comfortable ride. Although the basic hull designs are similar, the Company has historically introduced a variety of new models each year and periodically replaces, updates or discontinues existing models. Another hull design is the Hydro LiftTM used on the Robalo boat models. This variable dead rise hull design provides a smooth ride in rough water conditions. It increases the maximum speed obtainable by a given engine horsepower and weight of the boat. Robalo’s current models utilize the Hydro LiftTM design and we plan to continue to provide this design on Robalo models. A bow design known as the Wide TechTM was first used on the Chaparral Sunesta Wide TechTM and Xtreme models for the 2008 model year, and is currently being used on Chaparral’s Premiere Sport Yacht, SSi Wide TechTM Sport Boats, Sunesta Sportdecks, Xtreme Tow Boats and two Signature Cruisers. The Wide TechTM bow design allows the models to have the Extended V-Plane hull, with the features and benefits that this hull design offers. In addition, the Wide TechTM bow design provides a larger seating area, as well as additional storage space, in the front of the boat. Furthermore, it allows the models to have a non-skid walkway on the bow, which makes entering and leaving the boat easier than in other boat models. This bow design may be incorporated on other Chaparral boat models in subsequent model years. In support of its new product development efforts, Marine Products incurred research and development costs of $768 thousand in 2012, $789 thousand in 2011, and $489 thousand in 2010. Industry Overview The recreational marine market in the United States is a mature market, with 2011 (latest data available to us) retail expenditures of approximately $32 billion spent on new and used boats, motors and engines, trailers, accessories and other associated costs as estimated by the National Marine Manufacturers Association (“NMMA”). Pleasure boats compete for consumers’ limited free time with all other leisure activities. The NMMA conducts various surveys of pleasure boat industry trends, and the most recent surveys indicate that 83 million adults in the United States participated in recreational boating in 2011, an increase of 11 percent compared to the prior year, although non-active boat owners cite lack of leisure time and increased operational and fuel costs as the primary reasons for not using their boats. A higher percentage of American consumers participated in recreational boating in 2011 than in any year since 1997. There are currently approximately 16 million boats owned in the United States, including outboard, inboard, sterndrive, sailboats, personal watercraft, and miscellaneous (canoes, kayaks, rowboats, etc.). Marine Products competes in the sterndrive and inboard boating category with its seven lines of Chaparral boats, and in the outboard boating category with its Robalo sport fishing boats. Approximately 85 percent of the Company’s unit sales are sterndrive boats. 14 Industry sales of new sterndrive boats in the United States during 2012 totaling 13,959 (source: Info- Link Technologies, Inc.) accounted for approximately 28 percent of the total new fiberglass powerboats sold between 18 and 35 feet in hull length. Sales of sterndrive boats had an estimated total retail value of $708 million, or an average retail price per boat of approximately $51,000. Management believes that the five largest states for boat sales at the present time are Florida, Texas, Michigan, New York and Louisiana. Marine Products has dealers in each of these states. The U.S. domestic recreational boating industry includes sales in the segments of new and used boats, motors and engines, trailers, and other boat accessories. The new fiberglass boat market segment with hull lengths of 18 to 35 feet, the primary market segment in which Marine Products competes, represented $2.1 billion in retail sales during 2012. The table below reflects the estimated sales within this segment by category for 2012 and 2011 (source: Info-Link Technologies, Inc.): Sterndrive Boats . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

As shown in the table above, the sterndrive boats segment was the only segment that experienced a decline in unit sales between 2011 and 2012. The recreational boat manufacturing market remains highly fragmented with the exception of Brunswick Corporation, which has acquired and currently operates a number of recreational boat brands. We estimate that the boat manufacturing industry includes approximately 70 sterndrive manufacturers and over 200 outboard boat manufacturers, with the majority representing small, privately held companies with varying degrees of professional management and manufacturing skill. According to estimates provided by Statistical Surveys, Inc., during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 (latest information available), the top five sterndrive manufacturers, which includes Chaparral, have a market share of approximately 56 percent, an increase of two percentage points compared to the same time last year. Chaparral’s market share in units during this 9 month period was 11.7 percent, which represents a significant increase of approximately 3.4 percentage points compared to 8.3 percent during the 12 months ended December 31, 2011. The Company believes that this significant improvement in market share is due primarily to the success of our value-priced Chaparral H2O models, which are 18 or 19 feet in length. Several factors influence sales trends in the recreational boating industry, including general economic growth, consumer confidence, household incomes, the availability and cost of financing for our dealers and customers, weather, fuel prices, tax laws, demographics and consumers’ leisure time. Also, the value of residential and vacation real estate in coastal and recreational areas influences recreational boat sales. The most recent NMMA surveys indicate that participation in recreational boating has increased, that many boaters participate in boating by using another person’s boat, and that retirements of used boats have reduced the size of the total recreational boat fleet. These factors are positive indicators for near-term boat sales. However, these surveys also indicate that many past boating participants do not currently participate in boating because of high costs and a lack of leisure time. The increases in the cost of certain components, operating costs, and the impact of environmental regulation have increased the cost of boats in recent years, and these trends may continue. Competition from other leisure and recreational activities for available leisure time can also affect sales of recreational boats. Management believes Marine Products is well positioned to take advantage of the following conditions, which continue to characterize the industry: • • labor-intensive manufacturing processes that remain largely unautomated; increasingly strict environmental standards derived from governmental regulations and customer sensitivities; 15 • • • a lack of focus on coordinated customer service and support by dealers and manufacturers; a lack of financial strength among retail boat dealers and many manufacturers; and a high degree of fragmentation and competition among the large number of sterndrive and outboard recreational boat manufacturers. Business Strategies Recreational boating is a mature industry. According to Info-Link Technologies, Inc., sales of sterndrive boats declined at a compounded annual rate of approximately 6 percent between 2009 and 2012. During this period, Marine Products experienced a compounded annual growth rate of approximately 52 percent in the number of boats sold. The Company has historically grown its boat sales and net sales primarily through increasing market share and by expanding its number of models and product lines. During 2012 the Company’s strategy has been to support our dealers’ need to maintain a higher level of inventories than in previous years, given relatively stable retail demand and an improved dealer financing environment. At the end of 2012, the Company’s dealer inventories were approximately 52 percent higher than they were at the end of 2011, and our unit order backlog remained strong. We believe that higher inventories and the current unit order backlog are appropriate relative to expected retail demand during the 2013 retail selling season. Chaparral has grown its sterndrive market share in the 18 to 35 feet length category from 5.9 percent in fiscal 1996 to 11.7 percent during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 (the most recent information available to us from Statistical Surveys, Inc.). Our market share increased across the breadth of our model sizes during 2012, although market share increased at a higher rate among our smaller boat models. During 2011 Marine Products developed several new Chaparral and Robalo models for the 2012 model year which address the market for entry-level, value-priced boats. These models, the Chaparral H2O Sport and Fish & Ski Boats and the Robalo R180 and R200, are affordable models with a small number of standard features. These models also carry nationally advertised fixed pricing and include a trailer. Marine Products developed these models in order to increase unit sales in a segment in which the Company has an opportunity to increase market share and improve profitability. Furthermore, we hope to capture additional market share as purchasers of these entry-level models purchase larger Chaparral or Robalo models in the future. During 2012, sales of these models were responsible for increases in our net sales, gross profit, operating profit, and net income. They were also responsible for our significant increases in market share. Chaparral’s market share in the 18 to 19 foot category increased approximately 8 percentage points in 2012. These new models align with Marine Products’ overall operating strategy, which emphasizes innovative designs and manufacturing processes, and the production of a high quality product, while also seeking to lower manufacturing costs through increased efficiencies in our facilities. In the current environment, this strategy also includes the production of lower-priced, entry level models which appeal to a value-conscious consumer who wants an updated, high quality product. In addition, we seek opportunities to leverage our buying power through economies of scale. Management believes its membership in the ABA positions Marine Products as a significant third-party customer of major suppliers of sterndrive engines. Marine Products’ Chaparral subsidiary is a founding member of the ABA, which collectively represents 12 independent boat manufacturers that have formed a buying group to pool their purchasing power in order to achieve improved pricing on engines, fiberglass, resin and many other components. Marine Products intends to continue seeking the most advantageous purchasing arrangements from its suppliers. Our marketing strategy seeks to increase market share by enabling Marine Products to expand its presence by building dedicated sales, marketing and distribution systems. Marine Products has a distribution network of 204 dealers located throughout the United States and several international markets. Our strategy is to increase selectively the quantity of our dealers, and to improve the quality and effectiveness of our entire dealer network. We have implemented a marketing program for potential new dealers which emphasizes our financial strength and product quality as an alternative to many other manufacturing organizations which are less financially stable. As a result of this program, we believe that we gained a number of new, strong dealers who approached us because the manufacturer of products they 16 carried became insolvent or ceased production. Marine Products seeks to capitalize on its strong dealer network by educating its dealers on the sales and servicing of our products and helping them provide more comprehensive customer service, with the goal of increasing customer satisfaction, customer retention and future sales. Marine Products provides promotional and incentive programs to help its dealers increase product sales and customer satisfaction. A component of Marine Products’ overall strategy is to consider making strategic acquisitions in order to complement existing product lines, expand its geographic presence in the marketplace and strengthen its capabilities depending upon availability, price and complementary product lines. We constantly review potential acquisition targets and intend to continue doing so in the future. Competition The recreational boat industry is highly fragmented, resulting in intense competition for customers, dealers and boat show exhibition space. There is significant competition both within markets we currently serve and in new markets that we may enter. Marine Products’ brands compete with several large national or regional manufacturers that have substantial financial, marketing and other resources. However, we believe that our corporate infrastructure and marketing and sales capabilities, in addition to our financial strength, and our nationwide presence, enable us to compete effectively against these companies. In each of our markets, Marine Products competes on the basis of responsiveness to customer needs, the quality and range of models offered, and the competitive pricing of those models. Additionally, Marine Products faces general competition from all other recreational businesses seeking to attract consumers’ leisure time and discretionary spending dollars. According to Statistical Surveys, Inc., the following is a list of the top ten (largest to smallest) sterndrive boat manufacturers in the United States based on unit sales in 2012. According to Statistical Surveys, Inc., the companies set forth below represent approximately 78 percent of all United States retail sterndrive boat registrations with hull lengths of 18 to 35 feet for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. 1. Sea Ray * 2. Bayliner * 3. Chaparral 4. Tahoe 5. Cobalt 6. Crownline 7. Stingray 8. Regal 9. Glastron 10. Four Winns The outboard engine powered market has a large breadth and depth, accounting for approximately 53 percent of traditional powerboat unit sales during 2012. Robalo’s share of the outboard sport fishing boat market during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was approximately two percent. Primary competitors for Robalo during 2012 included Ranger, Sea Hunt, Sea Fox, Grady-White, Boston Whaler*, Everglades and Parker. * Division or subsidiary of Brunswick Corporation. Environmental and Regulatory Matters Certain materials used in boat manufacturing, including the resins used to make the decks and hulls, are toxic, flammable, corrosive, or reactive and are classified by the federal and state governments as “hazardous materials.” Control of these substances is regulated by the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) and state pollution control agencies, which require reports and inspect facilities to monitor compliance with their regulations. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (“OSHA”) standards limit the amount of emissions to which an employee may be exposed without the need for 17 respiratory protection or upgraded plant ventilation. Marine Products’ manufacturing facilities are regularly inspected by OSHA and by state and local inspection agencies and departments. Marine Products believes that its facilities comply in all material aspects with these regulations. Although capital expenditures related to compliance with environmental laws are expected to increase during the coming years, we do not currently anticipate that any material expenditure will be required to continue to comply with existing environmental or safety regulations in connection with our existing manufacturing facilities. Recreational powerboats sold in the United States must be manufactured to meet the standards of certification required by the United States Coast Guard. In addition, boats manufactured for sale in the European Community must be certified to meet the European Community’s imported manufactured products standards. These certifications specify standards for the design and construction of powerboats. All boats sold by Marine Products meet these standards. In addition, safety of recreational boats is subject to federal regulation under the Boat Safety Act of 1971. The Boat Safety Act requires boat manufacturers to recall products for replacement of parts or components that have demonstrated defects affecting safety. Marine Products has instituted recalls for defective component parts produced by other manufacturers. None of the recalls has had a material adverse effect on Marine Products. The EPA has adopted regulations stipulating that many marine propulsion engines meet an air emission standard that requires fitting a catalytic converter to the engine. These regulations also require, among other things, that the engine manufacturer provide a warranty that the engine meets EPA emission standards. The majority of the engines used in Marine Products’ Chaparral product line and all of the engines used in the Company’s Robalo product line are subject to these regulations. These regulations are similar to regulations adopted by the California Air Resources Board in 2007, but apply to all U.S. states and territories. This regulation has increased the cost to manufacture the majority of the Company’s boat products. The additional cost of complying with these EPA regulations may reduce Marine Products’ profitability, because the Company may have to absorb the increased cost. It may also reduce Marine Products’ net sales, because the increased cost of owning a boat may force consumers to buy a smaller or less expensive boat or forego a boat purchase, and because increased product cost will reduce the amount of inventory that Marine Products’ dealers can carry, thus reducing retail consumers’ choices. Employees As of December 31, 2012, Marine Products had approximately 590 employees (an increase from approximately 450 at December 31, 2011), of whom 6 were management, 37 were administrative and 7 were sales. Although the number of employees has increased in 2012 compared to 2011 in order to support increased production levels, the Company currently maintains a significantly smaller work force compared to years prior to 2009 in an effort to align costs with sales and consumer demand for our products. None of Marine Products’ employees are party to a collective bargaining agreement. Marine Products’ entire workforce is currently employed in the United States and Marine Products believes that its relations with its employees are good. Proprietary Matters Marine Products owns a number of trademarks, trade names and patents that it believes are important to its business. Except for the Chaparral, Robalo and Wahoo! trademarks, however, Marine Products is not dependent upon any single trademark or trade name or group of trademarks or trade names. The Chaparral, Robalo and Wahoo! trademarks are currently registered in the United States. The current duration for such registration ranges from seven to 15 years but each registration may be renewed an unlimited number of times. Several of Chaparral’s and Robalo’s designs are protected under the U.S. Copyright Office’s Vessel Hull Design Protection Act. This law grants an owner of an original vessel hull design certain exclusive rights. Protection is offered for hull designs that are made available to the public for purchase provided that the application is made within two years of the hull design being made public. As of December 31, 18 2012, there were 22 Chaparral hull designs and four Robalo hull designs registered under the Vessel Hull Design Protection Act. During 2008 Chaparral was granted a design patent on its Wide TechTM hull design by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. The patent has a term of 14 years and protects the Wide TechTM hull currently used on the Sunesta Wide TechTM and Xtreme, 400 Premiere, SSi Wide TechTM and two of its Signature Cruisers from being used by other pleasure boat manufacturers. Marine Products believes that this patent is important to its business. Seasonality Marine Products’ quarterly operating results are affected by weather and general economic conditions. Quarterly operating results for the second quarter have historically recorded the highest sales volume for the year because this corresponds with the highest retail sales volume period. The results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected in any future period. Inflation The market prices of certain material and component costs used in manufacturing the Company’s products, especially resins that are made with hydrocarbon feedstocks, copper and stainless steel, were very volatile as a result of the financial crisis of 2008, the ensuing global recession and the subsequent economic recovery. The prices of many of these commodities have stabilized, but at historically high levels. As a result, we believe that the Company will continue to incur high materials costs in 2013. We cannot be confident that the Company will be able to institute sufficient price increases to its dealers to compensate for these increased materials costs, or that the Company will be able to implement manufacturing strategies that will significantly reduce usage of raw materials that will compensate for these increased materials costs. 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. Should higher inflation and increased interest rates occur, prospective buyers may choose to forego or delay their purchases or buy a less expensive boat in the event that interest rates rise or credit is not available to finance their boat purchases. Availability of Filings Marine Products makes available free of charge on its website, www.marineproductscorp.com, the annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, and all amendments to those reports on the same day as they are filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Item 1A. Risk Factors Economic Conditions, Availability of Credit and Consumer Confidence Levels Affect Marine Products’ Sales Because Marine Products’ Products are Purchased with Discretionary Income During an economic recession or when an economic recession is perceived as a threat, Marine Products will be adversely affected as consumers have less discretionary income or are more apt to save their discretionary income rather than spend it. During times of global political or economic uncertainty, Marine Products will be negatively affected to the extent consumers forego or delay large discretionary purchases pending the resolution of those uncertainties. The 2008 financial crisis and lingering recession may have long-term effects on consumer behavior with regard to pleasure boating as well. Financial market volatility may force consumers to delay retirement, or to choose more modest lifestyles when they do retire. In such a case, consumers may not purchase boats, may purchase boats later in their lives, or may purchase smaller or less expensive boats. Tight lending and credit standards, which until recently have been in use by lenders in the United States, can make loans for boats harder to secure, and such loans may carry unfavorable terms, which may force consumers to forego boat purchases. These factors have 19 also resulted in the past, and may continue to result in the future, in a reduction in the quality and number of dealers upon which Marine Products relies to sell its products. Marine Products Relies upon Third-Party Dealer Floor Plan Lenders Which Provide Financing to its Network of Independent Dealers Marine Products sells its products to a network of independent dealers, most of whom rely on one or more third-party dealer floor plan lenders to provide financing for their inventory prior to its sale to retail customers. In general, this source of financing is vital to Marine Products’ ability to sell products to its dealer network. The credit crisis and financial market volatility that occurred in late 2008 and extended into 2009 caused disruptions among dealer floor plan lenders and increased retail incentive costs to Marine Products. While dealer floor plan credit is currently available for many of our dealers during the 2013 model year, it is more costly than in prior years. This factor has increased the cost of financing for our dealers, thus reducing the amount of inventory they can carry. This factor negatively impacts Marine Products’ sales and profitability. Interest Rates and Fuel Prices Affect Marine Products’ Sales The Company’s products are often financed by our dealers and the retail boat consumers. Higher interest rates increase the borrowing costs and, accordingly, the cost of doing business for dealers and the cost of boat purchases for consumers. Fuel costs can represent a large portion of the costs to operate our products. Therefore, higher interest rates and fuel costs can adversely affect consumers’ decisions relating to recreational boating purchases. Marine Products’ Dependence on its Network of Independent Boat Dealers may Affect its Operating Results and Sales Virtually all of Marine Products’ sales are derived from its network of independent boat dealers. Marine Products has no long-term agreements with these dealers. Competition for dealers among recreational powerboat manufacturers continues to increase based on the quality of available products, the price and value of the products, and attention to customer service. The Company faces intense competition from other recreational powerboat manufacturers in attracting and retaining independent boat dealers. The number of independent boat dealers supporting the Chaparral and Robalo trade names and the quality of their marketing and servicing efforts are essential to Marine Products’ ability to generate sales. A deterioration in the number of Marine Products’ network of independent boat dealers which occurred during the recent challenging selling environment, has had and could continue to have a material adverse effect on its boat sales. Marine Products’ inability to attract new dealers and retain those dealers, or its inability to increase sales with existing dealers, could substantially impair its ability to execute its business plans. Although Marine Products’ management believes that the quality of its products and services in the recreational boating market should permit it to maintain its relationship with its dealers and its market position, there can be no assurance that Marine Products will be able to sustain its current sales levels. In addition, independent dealers in the recreational boating industry have experienced significant consolidation in recent years, which could result in the loss of one or more of Marine Products’ dealers in the future if the surviving entity in any such consolidation purchases similar products from a Marine Products competitor. Marine Products’ Financial Condition and Operating Results may be Adversely Affected by Boat Dealer Defaults The Company’s products are sold through dealers and the financial health of these dealers is critical to the Company’s continued success. The Company’s results can be negatively affected if a dealer defaults because Marine Products or its subsidiaries may be contractually required to repurchase inventory up to certain limits, although for business reasons, the Company may decide to purchase additional boats in excess of this contractual obligation. 20 Marine Products’ Ability to Adjust its Business Operations to Compensate for Reduced Sales of Boats may be Restricted in the Future In 2008 Marine Products idled certain production facilities and reduced its number of employees to offset the impact that reduced net sales had on the Company’s operating results and cash flows. As a result, the Company experienced lower rates of absorption of its fixed costs. The Company’s sales improved in 2011 and 2012, thus increasing the rate of absorption of its fixed costs and improving operating and net income. Although the Company’s unit sales have significantly improved, Marine Products still operates at levels which are significantly lower than its potential capacity. These lower operating levels may continue to have an adverse affect in 2013 and in future periods beyond 2013. In addition, the Company’s ability to reduce its fixed costs in the future to respond to potential future reduced net sales is limited. Marine Products’ Sales are Affected by Weather Conditions Marine Products’ business is subject to weather patterns that may adversely affect its sales. For example, drought conditions, or merely reduced rainfall levels, or excessive rain, may close area boating locations or render boating dangerous or inconvenient, thereby curtailing customer demand for our products. In addition, unseasonably cool weather and prolonged winter conditions may lead to a shorter selling season in some locations. Hurricanes and other storms could cause disruptions of our operations or damage to our boat inventories and manufacturing facilities. Marine Products Encounters Intense Competition Which Affects our Sales and Profits The recreational boat industry is highly fragmented, resulting in intense competition for customers, dealers and boat show exhibition space. This competition affects both the markets which we currently serve and new markets that we may enter in the future. We compete with several large national or regional manufacturers that have substantial financial, marketing and other resources. Marine Products has Potential Liability for Personal Injury and Property Damage Claims The products we sell or service may expose Marine Products to potential liabilities for personal injury or property damage claims relating to the use of those products. Historically, the resolution of product liability claims has not materially affected Marine Products’ business. Marine Products maintains product liability insurance that it believes to be adequate. However, there can be no assurance that Marine Products will not experience legal claims in excess of its insurance coverage or that claims will be covered by insurance. Furthermore, any significant claims against Marine Products could result in negative publicity, which could cause Marine Products’ sales to decline. Because Marine Products Relies on Third-party Suppliers, Marine Products may be Unable to Obtain Adequate Raw Materials and Components Marine Products is dependent on third-party suppliers to provide raw materials and components essential to the construction of its various powerboats. Especially critical are the availability and cost of marine engines and commodity raw materials used in the manufacture of Marine Products’ boats. While Marine Products’ management believes that supplier relationships currently in place are sufficient to provide the materials necessary to meet present production demands, there can be no assurance that these relationships will continue, that these suppliers will remain in operation given the extended business downturn in the recreational boating industry or that the quantity or quality of materials available from these suppliers will be sufficient to meet Marine Products’ future needs. Disruptions in current supplier relationships or the inability of Marine Products to continue to purchase construction materials in sufficient quantities and of sufficient quality at acceptable prices to meet ongoing production schedules could cause a decrease in sales or a sharp increase in the cost of goods sold. Additionally, because of this dependence, the volatility in commodity raw materials or current or future price increases in construction materials or the inability of Marine Products’ management to purchase materials required to complete its 21 growth and acquisition strategies could cause a reduction in Marine Products’ profit margins or reduce the number of boats Marine Products may be able to produce for sale. Marine Products may be Unable to Identify, Complete or Successfully Integrate Acquisitions Marine Products intends to pursue acquisitions and form strategic alliances that will enable Marine Products to acquire complementary skills and capabilities, offer new products, expand its customer base, and obtain other competitive advantages. There can be no assurance, however, that Marine Products will be able to successfully identify suitable acquisition candidates or strategic partners, obtain financing on satisfactory terms, complete acquisitions or strategic alliances, integrate acquired operations into its existing operations, or expand into new markets. Once integrated, acquired operations may not achieve anticipated levels of sales or profitability, or otherwise perform as expected. Acquisitions also involve special risks, including risks associated with unanticipated problems, liabilities and contingencies, diversion of management resources, and possible adverse effects on earnings and earnings per share resulting from increased interest costs, the issuance of additional securities, and difficulties related to the integration of the acquired business. The failure to integrate acquisitions successfully may divert management’s attention from Marine Products’ existing operations and may damage Marine Products’ relationships with its key customers and suppliers. Marine Products’ Success will Depend on its key Personnel, and the Loss of any key Personnel may Affect its Powerboat Sales Marine Products’ success will depend to a significant extent on the continued service of key management personnel. The loss or interruption of the services of any senior management personnel or the inability to attract and retain other qualified management, sales, marketing and technical employees could disrupt Marine Products’ operations and cause a decrease in its sales and profit margins. Marine Products’ Ability to Attract and Retain Qualified Employees is Crucial to its Results of Operations and Future Growth Marine Products relies on the existence of an available hourly workforce to manufacture its products. As with many businesses, we are challenged at times to find qualified employees. There are no assurances that Marine Products will be able to attract and retain qualified employees to meet current and/or future growth needs. If Marine Products is Unable to Comply with Environmental and Other Regulatory Requirements, its Business may be Exposed to Liability and Fines Marine Products’ operations are subject to extensive regulation, supervision and licensing under various federal, state and local statutes, ordinances and regulations. While Marine Products believes that it maintains all requisite licenses and permits and is in compliance with all applicable federal, state and local regulations, there can be no assurance that Marine Products will be able to continue to maintain all requisite licenses and permits and comply with applicable laws and regulations. The failure to satisfy these and other regulatory requirements could cause Marine Products to incur fines or penalties or could increase the cost of operations. The adoption of additional laws, rules and regulations could also increase Marine Products’ costs. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has adopted regulations affecting many marine propulsion engines. This regulation has increased the cost of boats subject to the regulation, which may either reduce the Company’s profitability or reduce sales. As with boat construction in general, our manufacturing processes involve the use, handling, storage and contracting for recycling or disposal of hazardous or toxic substances or wastes. Accordingly, we are subject to regulations regarding these substances, and the misuse or mishandling of such substances could expose Marine Products to liability or fines. 22 Additionally, certain states have required or are considering requiring a license in order to operate a recreational boat. While such licensing requirements are not expected to be unduly restrictive, regulations may discourage potential first-time buyers, thereby reducing future sales. Marine Products’ Stock Price has been Volatile Historically, the market price of common stock of companies engaged in the discretionary consumer products industry has been highly volatile. Likewise, the market price of our common stock has varied significantly in the past. In addition, the availability of Marine Products common stock to the investing public is limited to the extent that shares are not sold by the executive officers, directors and their affiliates, which could negatively impact the trading price of Marine Products’ common stock, increase volatility and affect the ability of minority stockholders to sell their shares. Future sales by executive officers, directors and their affiliates of all or a substantial portion of their shares could also negatively affect the trading price of Marine Products’ common stock. Marine Products’ Management has a Substantial Ownership Interest; Public Stockholders may have no Effective Voice in Marine Products’ Management The Company has elected the “Controlled Corporation” exemption under Rule 303A of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) Company Guide. The Company is a “Controlled Corporation” because a group that includes the Company’s Chairman of the Board, R. Randall Rollins and his brother, Gary W. Rollins, who is also a director of the Company, and certain companies under their control, controls in excess of fifty percent of the Company’s voting power. As a “Controlled Corporation,” the Company need not comply with certain NYSE rules including those requiring a majority of independent directors. Marine Products’ executive officers, directors and their affiliates hold directly or through indirect beneficial ownership, in the aggregate, approximately 73 percent of Marine Products’ outstanding shares of common stock. As a result, these stockholders effectively control the operations of Marine Products, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions such as acquisitions. This concentration of ownership could also have the effect of delaying or preventing a third-party from acquiring control of Marine Products at a premium. Provisions in Marine Products’ Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws may Inhibit a Takeover of Marine Products Marine Products’ certificate of incorporation, bylaws and other documents contain provisions including advance notice requirements for stockholder proposals and staggered terms of office for the Board of Directors. These provisions may make a tender offer, change in control or takeover attempt that is opposed by Marine Products’ Board of Directors more difficult or expensive. The Market Prices of Marine Products’ Marketable Securities may Become Volatile due to the Downgrading of Insurance Companies Which Insure Some of These Marketable Securities as well as the Overall Financial Difficulties of Some of the Issuers of These Marketable Securities Marine Products maintains a diversified portfolio of short-duration, investment-grade municipal debt securities held in safekeeping by a large, well-capitalized financial institution. Our investment manager selects securities based on underlying credit quality as disclosed by various rating agencies as well as specific analysis of specific municipal issuers. Our investment manager selects securities based on underlying credit quality rather than relying on credit insurance, and all of our insured securities carry underlying credit ratings which are investment grade and meet our investment criteria. Many municipal governments are currently struggling with lower tax revenues and budgets. While our investment manager does not believe that there is significant risk of default of any securities within our portfolio of marketable securities, market prices of these marketable securities may be volatile during such periods of uncertainty. 23 Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments None. Item 2. Properties Marine Products’ corporate offices are located in Atlanta, Georgia. These offices are currently shared with RPC and are leased. The monthly rent paid is allocated between Marine Products and RPC. Under this arrangement, Marine Products pays approximately $2,000 per month in rent. Marine Products may cancel this arrangement at any time after giving a 30 day notice. Chaparral owns and maintains approximately 1,012,000 square feet of space utilized for manufacturing, research and development, warehouse, and sales office and operations in Nashville, Georgia. In addition, the Company owns 83,000 square feet of manufacturing space at the Robalo facility in Valdosta, Georgia. During 2008, the Robalo facility was temporarily idled and production of these boats was moved to the Nashville facility. There are no plans or current intentions to dispose of the facilities in Valdosta, Georgia. The Company also leases 111,000 square feet of warehouse space in Nashville, Georgia under a long-term arrangement expiring in 2018. Marine Products’ total square footage under roof is allocated as follows: manufacturing — 712,000, research and development — 68,500, warehousing — 294,500, office and other — 131,400. Item 3. Legal Proceedings Marine Products is involved in litigation from time to time in the ordinary course of its business. Marine Products does not believe that the ultimate outcome of such litigation will have a material adverse effect on its liquidity, financial condition or results of operations. Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures Not applicable. 24 Item 4A.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations The following discussion is based upon and should be read in conjunction with “Selected Financial Data” and “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.” See also “Forward-Looking Statements” on page 8. Overview Marine Products, 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 consumers. These dealers are located throughout the continental United States and in several international markets. Most of these dealers finance their inventory through third-party floor plan lenders, who pay Marine Products upon delivery of the products to the dealers. We manage our Company by focusing on the execution of the following business and financial strategies: • Manufacturing high-quality, stylish, and innovative powerboats for our dealers and retail consumers, • Providing our independent dealer network appropriate incentives, training, and other support to enhance their success and their customers’ satisfaction, thereby facilitating their continued relationship with us, • Managing our production and dealer order backlog to optimize operating results and reduce risk in the event of a downturn in sales of our products, • Maintaining a flexible, variable cost structure which can be reduced quickly when deemed appropriate, • Focusing on the competitive nature of the boating business and designing our products and strategies in order to grow and maintain profitable market share, • Monitoring the activities and financial condition of our dealers and of the third-party floor plan lenders who finance our dealers’ inventories, • Maximizing stockholder return by optimizing the balance of cash invested in the Company’s productive assets, the payment of dividends to stockholders, and the repurchase of the Company’s common stock on the open market, and • Aligning the interests of our management and stockholders. In implementing these strategies and attempting to optimize our financial returns, management closely monitors dealer orders and inventories, the production mix of various models, and indications of near term demand such as consumer confidence, interest rates, 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 historical and forecasted financial results, market share, unit sales of our products, average selling price per boat, 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 — 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. During 2012, overall industry retail sales increases have been modest due to a slow economic recovery, persistent high unemployment, depressed real estate values and continued weak consumer confidence. In spite of these conditions our sales increased significantly in 2012, due primarily to the introduction of new entry level models in both the Chaparral and Robalo product lines. The increased production of these smaller value-priced units resulted in improved production efficiencies which were 29 partially offset by generally lower margins on these models. We achieved higher net sales, as well as increased gross and operating profit in 2012 compared to 2011. Management will continue to monitor retail demand, dealer inventory levels and the availability of dealer and consumer financing for the purchase of our products and adjust our production levels as deemed appropriate. We continuously monitor our market share in the 18 to 35 foot sterndrive category as one indicator of the success of our strategies and the market’s acceptance of our products. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 (latest data available to us), Chaparral’s market share in the 18 to 35 foot sterndrive category was 11.7 percent, an increase from our market share in the same category for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 of 8.3 percent. Our market share increased across a broad size range, but was higher among the smaller boats in our market due to the new entry level Chaparral models which were first introduced in the fourth quarter of 2011. Chaparral’s market share in the 18 to 19 foot category has increased to 11.6 percent during 2012, compared to 4.0 percent in 2011, due to the successful launch of these smaller models. The emphasis on these models resulted in a significant increase in unit sales, partially offset by a decrease in average selling price per boat. We will continue to monitor our market share and believe it to be important, but we also believe that maximizing profitability takes precedence over growing our market share. Outlook Management believes that net sales will be higher in 2013 compared to 2012 and that our operating results will improve. This belief is based on indications that recreational boating retail demand has stabilized and may be improving, the fact that our dealer inventories are at reasonable levels, and that our order backlog remains strong. Indications from early winter boat shows are that attendance and sales are moderately higher than at this same time last year. Although industry wide retail boat sales remain lower than they were in 2008, volumes did expand in 2012 and we expect this to continue in 2013. We believe improvements in retail boat sales will be modest due to the continued economic weakness which tends to discourage consumers from purchasing large discretionary goods such as pleasure boats. Fluctuations in fuel prices can impact our sales. Rising fuel prices in the first quarter of 2013 could negatively impact 2013 spring retail sales, thus impacting our production levels, net sales and margins. Over the long term, the lower expected returns on financial assets may have long-term effects on consumer behavior with regard to pleasure boating. However, if sustained, recent improvements in the housing market could have positive effects on sales. For a number of years, Marine Products as well as other manufacturers have been improving their customer service capabilities, marketing strategies and sales promotions in order to attract more consumers to recreational boating as well as improve consumers’ boating experiences. In addition, the recreational boating industry conducts a promotional program which involves advertising and consumer targeting efforts, as well as other activities designed to increase the potential consumer market for pleasure boats. Many manufacturers, including Marine Products, participate in this program. Management believes that these efforts have incrementally benefited the industry and Marine Products. As in past years, Marine Products is enhancing its selection of models for the 2013 model year which began on July 1, 2012. We are continuing to expand the value-priced Chaparral and Robalo models that were initially introduced for model year 2012, as well as updating selected larger models in the SSX line. We believe that the value- priced models we are producing will continue to enhance the achievement of our objectives related to improved manufacturing cost efficiencies, meeting dealer requests for entry-level models and increasing retail market share. Our financial results in 2013 will depend on a number of factors, including interest rates, consumer confidence, the availability of credit to our dealers and consumers, fuel costs, the continued acceptance of our new products in the recreational boating market, our ability to compete in the competitive pleasure boating industry, and the costs of certain of our raw materials and key components. 30 Results of Operations ($’s in thousands) Total number of boats sold to dealers . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Marine Products’ net sales increased by $42.5 million or 39.9 percent in 2012 compared to 2011. The increase was primarily due to a 62.1 percent increase in the number of boats sold, partially offset by a 15.1 percent decrease in the average gross selling price per boat. Unit sales increased dramatically due to sales of our recently introduced Chaparral H2O Sport and Fish & Ski Boats, as well as our Robalo 180 and 200 outboard sport fishing boat. The increased sales of these smaller models also resulted in the decrease in overall average selling prices during 2012 compared to 2011. During 2012, sales outside of the United States accounted for 20.3 percent of net sales, a slight decrease compared to 21.4 percent of net sales in the prior year. Domestic sales increased 42.0 percent and international sales increased 32.6 percent during the period compared to the prior year. The majority of the increase in international sales was due to higher sales volumes in Canada due to an expanded dealer network coupled with improvement in the Canadian economy while most other international economies continue to struggle. Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold increased 40.0 percent in 2012 compared to 2011. As a percentage of net sales, cost of goods sold was 81.7 percent for 2012, unchanged compared to 2011 despite increased sales of smaller models, which carry lower margins. The impact of decreased margins was offset by increased production efficiencies due to higher production levels. Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 30.5 percent in 2012 compared to 2011 primarily as a result of costs that vary with the level of Company sales, such as warranty expense, marketing, research and development expenses and sales commissions. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales decreased from 13.3 percent in 2011 to 12.4 percent in 2012, primarily due to leverage of fixed costs over higher net sales. Warranty expense was 1.5 percent of net sales in 2012 compared to 1.0 percent of net sales in 2011. Warranty expense as a percentage of net sales was lower in 2011, due primarily to favorable claims experience and the resulting change in management’s estimate of warranties issued in prior years. Interest Income. Interest income was $960 thousand in 2012 compared to $997 thousand in 2011. Marine Products generates interest income primarily from investments in tax-exempt municipal obligations. The slight decrease in interest income is primarily due to lower market returns on the Company’s debt investments compared to the prior year offset by an increase in the average investment balance compared to the prior year. Interest income includes $290 thousand in gains realized on sales of marketable securities sold to fund a portion of our special year-end dividend. Other Income. Other income of $2.0 million recorded in the fourth quarter of 2011 represents a tax-free gain from an employee benefit plan financing arrangement. There was no other income reported in 2012. Income Tax Provision. The income tax provision was $2.7 million in 2012 compared to $1.7 million in 2011. The effective tax rate in 2012 was 28.2 percent compared to 19.9 percent in 2011. The change in the effective rate was due primarily to a $2.0 million tax free gain recorded in 2011, coupled with a disproportionate increase in our annual pretax income in relation to permanent differences between book and taxable income including tax-exempt income earned on municipal debt securities, and insurance contracts, and the US manufacturer’s deduction. 31 Year Ended December 31, 2011 Compared To Year Ended December 31, 2010 Net Sales. Marine Products’ net sales increased by $5.4 million or 5.4 percent in 2011 compared to 2010. The increase was primarily due to a 8.3 percent increase in the average gross selling price per boat, partially offset by a 2.1 percent decrease in the number of boats sold. Average gross selling price per boat increased compared to the prior year, with the exception of Robalo, due to higher unit sales of several of the larger boats within the SSi and SSX Sportboats model lineup offset slightly by the sales of our new lower priced Chaparral H2O. Unit sales among all models, except Robalo and H2O, decreased slightly compared to the prior year. Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold increased 4.4 percent in 2011 compared to 2010, less than the increase in net sales. As a percentage of net sales, cost of goods sold decreased in 2011 compared to 2010, primarily due to lower retail incentive costs as a percentage of net sales and cost efficiencies resulting from higher production volumes. Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 1.0 percent in 2011 compared to 2010 primarily as a result of costs, including sales commissions and incentive compensation, that vary with the level of Company sales and profitability. Warranty expense was 1.0 percent of net sales in 2011 compared to 2.0 percent of net sales in 2010. This decrease was due primarily to an adjustment of warranties issued in prior years due to positive trends including a decline in the number of warranty claims during 2011 compared to 2010. Warranty claims declined because of less boat usage and lower field inventories. Interest Income. Interest income was $1.0 million in 2011 compared to $1.2 million in 2010. Marine Products generates interest income primarily from investments in tax-exempt municipal obligations. The decrease in interest income is primarily due to lower market returns on the Company’s debt investments compared to the prior year. Other Income. Other income was $2.0 million in 2011 compared to $0 in 2010. The $2.0 million recorded in the fourth quarter of 2011 represents a tax-free gain from an employee benefit plan financing arrangement. Income Tax Provision. The income tax provision was $1.7 million in 2011 compared to $1.0 million in 2010. The effective tax rate in 2011 was 19.8 percent compared to 21.2 percent in 2010. The change in the effective rate was due primarily to the relationship of our annual pretax income to permanent differences between book and taxable income including tax-exempt interest earned on municipal debt securities, coupled with the impact of discrete tax adjustments, including state NOLs expected to be used in the future. Liquidity and Capital Resources Cash and Cash Flows The Company’s cash and cash equivalents were $1.6 million at December 31, 2012, $1.0 million at December 31, 2011 and $9.5 million at December 31, 2010. In addition, the aggregate of short-term and long-term marketable securities was $36.9 million at December 31, 2012, $54.1 million at December 31, 2011 and $42.8 million at December 31, 2010. The following table sets forth the historical cash flows for the twelve months ended December 31: (in thousands) Net cash provided by operating activities . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Net cash provided by (used for) investing activities . . . . . . . . . . . . Net cash used for financing activities . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $ 2012 8,182 16,811 (24,301) $ 2011 3,296 (11,559) (316) 2010 $ 10,879 (3,718) (199) 2012 Cash provided by operating activities increased by $4.9 million in 2012 compared to 2011. This increase was primarily due to a significant increase in net income during 2012 compared to 2011, 32 excluding the gain on a benefit plan financing arrangement in 2011, partially offset by higher working capital requirements during 2012 consistent with increased production volumes and the timing of adding critical manufacturing components into inventory. Cash provided by investing activities was $16.8 million in 2012 compared to $11.6 million used for investing activities in 2011. This change was due to increased sales of marketable securities, primarily used to fund a portion of the $0.55 per share special dividend paid in the fourth quarter of 2012. Cash used for financing activities increased $24.0 million in 2012 primarily due to the reinstatement of a $0.02 per share regular quarterly dividend beginning in the first quarter of 2012 coupled with a special dividend of $0.55 per share paid in the fourth quarter of 2012. There were no dividend payments in 2011. 2011 Cash provided by operating activities decreased by $7.6 million in 2011 compared to 2010. This decrease is primarily the result of an income tax refund of $6.2 million received in 2010 (relating to 2009 losses) offset slightly by an increase in earnings in 2011, excluding the gain on a benefit plan financing arrangement, compared to 2010. Cash used for investing activities increased approximately $7.8 million in 2011 compared to 2010 due to increased purchases of marketable securities in 2011 as a result of improved cash flows from operations. Cash used for financing activities increased only $0.1 million in 2011 compared to 2010. Cash Requirements Management expects that capital expenditures during 2013 will be approximately $1.4 million. The Company participates in a multiple employer Retirement Income Plan, sponsored by RPC, Inc. (“RPC”). During 2012, the Company made contributions of $714 thousand to this plan in order to achieve the Company’s funding objective. We expect that additional contributions to the Retirement Income Plan of approximately $50 thousand will be required in 2013. On January 23, 2013, the Board of Directors approved a quarterly dividend of $0.03 per common share to stockholders payable March 8, 2013 to stockholders of record at the close of business on February 8, 2013. The Company has agreements with two employees, which provide for a monthly payment to the employees equal to 10 percent of profits (defined as pretax income before goodwill amortization and certain allocated corporate expenses). In January 2008, the Board of Directors authorized an additional 3,000,000 shares that the Company may repurchase for a total aggregate authorization of 8,250,000 shares. As of December 31, 2012, the Company has purchased a total of 5,027,785 shares in the open market under this program and there are 3,222,215 shares that remain available for repurchase. The Company has entered into agreements with third-party floor plan lenders where it has agreed, in the event of default by the dealer, to repurchase MPC boats repossessed from the dealer. These arrangements are subject to maximum repurchase amounts and the associated risk is mitigated by the value of the boats repurchased. There were no material repurchases of dealer inventory during 2012. At December 31, 2012 there were no amounts payable to lenders related to repurchased inventory or repurchased boats remaining in inventory. If dealers experience financial difficulty as a result of the current market conditions, the Company may incur repurchase obligations under current programs or programs initiated in the future. See further information regarding repurchase obligations in “NOTE 9: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES” of the Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company believes that the liquidity provided by its existing cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, and cash expected to be generated from operations will provide sufficient capital to 33 meet its requirements for at least 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.

(2) As part of the normal course of business the Company enters into purchase commitments to manage its various operating needs. However, the Company does not have any obligations that are non-cancelable or subject to a penalty if canceled. (3) The Company has agreements with various third-party lenders where it guarantees varying amounts of debt for qualifying dealers on boats in inventory. As of December 31, 2012, there are no payables outstanding to floor plan lenders. Additionally, our liability for unrecognized tax benefits and related interest and penalties was $14,000 as of December 31, 2012. Management is unable to make a reasonable estimate as to when cash settlement with the tax authorities might occur due to the uncertainties related to these tax matters. Fair Value Measurements The Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified in the fair value hierarchy (Level 1, 2 or 3) based on the inputs used for valuation. Assets and liabilities that are traded on an exchange with a quoted price are classified as Level 1. Assets and liabilities that are valued using significant observable inputs in addition to quoted market prices are classified as Level 2. The Company currently has no assets or liabilities measured on a recurring basis that are valued using unobservable inputs and therefore no assets or liabilities measured on a recurring basis are classified as Level 3. For defined benefit plan assets classified as Level 3, the values are computed using inputs such as cost, discounted future cash flows, independent appraisals and market based comparable data or on net asset values calculated by the fund and not publicly available. 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 typically provide for the return of all repossessed boats in “new and unused” condition subject to normal wear and tear, as defined, 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. During 2011, the Company became obligated to repurchase inventory at a cost of approximately $0.8 million. There were no material repurchases of dealer inventory during 2012. Management continues to monitor the risk of additional defaults and resulting repurchase obligation based primarily upon information provided by the third-party floor plan lenders and to adjust the guarantee liability at the end of each reporting period based on information reasonably available at that 34 time. As of December 31, 2012, the Company believes the fair value of its remaining guarantee liability is immaterial. See further information regarding repurchase obligations in “NOTE 9: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES” of the Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company currently has an agreement with one of the floor plan lenders whereby the contractual repurchase limit is limited to a maximum of 15 percent of the average net receivables financed by the floor plan lender for dealers during the prior 12 month period, which was $5.3 million as of December 31, 2012. The Company has contractual repurchase agreements with additional lenders with an aggregate maximum repurchase obligation of approximately $5.4 million, with various expiration and cancellation terms of less than one year, for an aggregate repurchase obligation with all financing institutions of approximately $10.7 million as of December 31, 2012. Although the Company has these agreements with financial institutions, in certain situations, the Company may decide for business reasons to repurchase boats in excess of these contractual amounts. Related Party Transactions In conjunction with its spin-off from RPC in 2001, the Company and RPC entered into various agreements that define the companies’ relationship after the spin-off. The Transition Support Services Agreement provides for RPC to provide certain services, including financial reporting and income tax administration, acquisition assistance, etc., to Marine Products until the agreement is terminated by either party. Marine Products reimbursed RPC for its estimated allocable share of administrative costs incurred for services rendered on behalf of Marine Products totaling $544,000 in 2012, $639,000 in 2011, and $689,000 in 2010. The Company’s liability to RPC for these services was approximately $94,000 as of December 31, 2012, and approximately $3,000 as of December 31, 2011. The Company’s directors are also directors of RPC and all of the Company’s executive officers with the exception of one are employees of both the Company and RPC. The Employee Benefits Agreement provides for, among other things, the Company’s employees to continue participating subsequent to the spin-off in two RPC sponsored benefit plans, specifically, the defined contribution 401(k) plan and the defined benefit retirement income plan. 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. Critical Accounting Policies The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require significant judgment by management in selecting the appropriate assumptions for calculating accounting estimates. These judgments are based on our historical experience, terms of existing contracts, trends in the industry, and information available from other outside sources, as appropriate. Senior management has discussed the development, selection and disclosure of its critical accounting estimates with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors. The Company believes that, of its significant accounting policies, the following may involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity. Sales recognition – The Company sells its boats through its network of independent dealers. Sales orders used to plan production are firm indications of interest from dealers and are cancelable at any time, although historically very few orders are cancelled after they have been placed. The Company recognizes sales when all the following conditions are met: (1) a fully executed sales agreement exists, (2) the price of the boat is established, (3) the dealer takes delivery of the boat, and (4) collectibility of the sales price is reasonably assured. Sales incentives and discounts – The Company records incentives as a reduction of sales. Using historical trends and management estimates, adjusted for current changes, the Company estimates the amount of incentives that will be paid in the future on boats sold and accrues an estimated liability. The 35 Company offers various incentives that promote sales to dealers, and to a lesser extent, retail customers. These incentives are designed to encourage timely replenishment of dealer inventories after peak selling seasons, stabilize manufacturing volumes throughout the year, and improve production model mix. The dealer incentive programs are a combination of annual volume commitment discounts, and additional discounts at time of invoice for those dealers who do not finance their inventory through specified floor plan financing agreements. The annual dealer volume discounts are primarily based on July 1 through June 30 model year purchases. In addition, the Company offers at various times other time-specific or model-specific incentives. The factors that complicate the calculation of the cost of these incentives are the ability to forecast sales of the Company and individual dealers, the volume and timing of inventory financed by specific dealers, identification of which boats have been sold subject to an incentive, and the estimated lag time between sales and payment of incentives. Settlement of the incentives generally occurs from three to twelve months after the sale. The Company regularly analyzes the historical incentive trends and makes adjustments to recorded liabilities for changes in trends and terms of incentive programs. Total incentives recorded in net sales as a percentage of gross sales were 10.4 percent in 2012, 12.5 percent in 2011, and 12.0 percent in 2010. A 0.25 percentage point change in incentives as a percentage of gross sales during 2012 would have increased or decreased net sales, gross margin and operating income by approximately $0.4 million. Warranty costs – The Company records as part of selling, general and administrative expense an experience based estimate of the future warranty costs to be incurred when sales are recognized. The Company evaluates its warranty obligation on a model year basis. The Company provides warranties against manufacturing defects for various components of the boats, primarily the fiberglass deck and hull, with warranty periods extending up to 10 years. Warranty costs, if any, on other components of the boats are generally absorbed by the original component manufacturer. Warranty costs can vary depending upon the size and number of components in the boats sold, the pre-sale warranty claims, and the desired level of customer service. While we focus on high quality manufacturing programs and processes, including actively monitoring the quality of our component suppliers and managing the dealer and customer service warranty experience and reimbursements, our estimated warranty obligation is based upon the warranty terms and the Company’s enforcement of those terms over time, defects, repair costs, and the volume and mix of boat sales. The estimate of warranty costs is regularly analyzed and is adjusted based on several factors including the actual claims that occur. Warranty expense as a percentage of net sales was 1.5 percent in 2012, 1.0 percent in 2011, and 2.0 percent in 2010. Warranty expense as a percentage of net sales was lower in 2011, due primarily to favorable claims experience and the resulting change in management’s estimate of warranties issued in prior years. A 0.10 percentage point increase in the estimated warranty expense as a percentage of net sales during 2012 would have increased selling, general and administrative expenses and reduced operating income by approximately $0.1 million. Income taxes – The effective income tax rate was 28.2 percent in 2012, 19.8 percent in 2011, and 21.2 percent in 2010. The effective tax rates vary due to changes in estimates of future taxable income, fluctuations in the tax jurisdictions in which the earnings and deductions are realized, variations in the relationship of tax-exempt income or losses to income before taxes and favorable or unfavorable adjustments to estimated tax liabilities related to proposed or probable assessments. As a result, the effective tax rate may fluctuate significantly on a quarterly or annual basis. The large tax rate increase in 2012, compared to 2011, is due primarily to a $2.0 million tax free gain recorded in 2011 that did not reoccur in 2012. The Company establishes a valuation allowance against the carrying value of deferred tax assets when it is determined that it is more likely than not that the asset will not be realized through future taxable income. Such amounts are charged to earnings in the period the determination is made. Likewise, if it is later determined that it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets would be realized, the applicable portion of the previously provided valuation allowance is reversed. The Company considers future market growth, forecasted earnings, future taxable income, the mix of earnings in the jurisdictions in which the Company operates, and prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in determining the need for a valuation allowance. 36 The Company calculates the current and deferred tax provision based on estimates and assumptions that could differ from the actual results reflected in income tax returns filed during the subsequent year. Adjustments based on filed returns are recorded when identified, which is generally in the third quarter of the subsequent year for U.S. federal and state provisions. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the differences between the financial and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the year the differences are expected to reverse. The amount of income taxes the Company pays is subject to ongoing audits by federal and state tax authorities, which often result in proposed assessments. Our estimate for the potential outcome for any uncertain tax issue is highly judgmental. The Company believes it has adequately provided for any reasonably foreseeable outcome related to these matters. However, future results may include favorable or unfavorable adjustments to estimated tax liabilities in the period the assessments are made or resolved or when statutes of limitation on potential assessments expire. Additionally, the jurisdictions in which earnings or deductions are realized may differ from current estimates. Impact of Recent Accounting Pronouncements During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued the following Accounting Standards Updates (ASU): Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements: • • ASU 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income. The amendments to the Codification in this ASU allow an entity the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In both choices, an entity is required to present each component of net income along with total net income, each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income, and a total amount for comprehensive income. This ASU eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. The amendments to the Codification in the ASU do not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income. The amendments are to be applied retrospectively and are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company has adopted these provisions in the first quarter of 2012 and has presented a separate statement of comprehensive income consecutively after the statement showing net income in the accompanying financial statements. Adoption of these provisions did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. ASU 2012-02, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment. The amendments in this codification permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is “more likely than not” that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. If, after assessing the totality of events and circumstances, an entity concludes that it is not more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired, then the entity is not required to take further action. However, if an entity concludes otherwise, then it is required to perform the quantitative impairment test by comparing the fair value with the carrying amount in accordance with Codification Subtopic 350-30. An entity has the option to bypass the qualitative assessment for any indefinite-lived intangible asset in any period, proceeding directly to performing the quantitative impairment test and resume performing the qualitative assessment in any subsequent period. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012 with early adoption being permitted, including for annual and interim impairment tests performed as of a date before July 27, 2012, if an entity’s financial statements for the most recent annual or interim period have not been issued. The Company adopted these provisions in the fourth quarter of 2012 for annual and interim impairment tests performed starting this year. Adoption of these provisions did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. 37 Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted: • • Accounting Standards Update 2013-02, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. The amendments in this ASU do not change the current requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income in financial statements. All of the information that this ASU requires already is required to be disclosed elsewhere in the financial statements under U.S. GAAP. The amendments are effective for all reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012, with early adoption permitted. The Company plans to adopt these provisions in the first quarter of 2013. Adoption of these provisions is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and the Company will comply with the additional disclosures as required. Accounting Standards Update 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. The amendments to the Codification in this ASU are part of an ongoing effort to bring congruence between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. The amendments in this ASU require an entity to disclose information about derivatives that are subject to a legally enforceable netting arrangement with the same party where rights of set-off are only available in the event of default or bankruptcy and can be presented as a single net amount in the statement of financial position. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods, with the required disclosures being provided retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of these provisions in the first quarter of 2013. Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk Marine Products holds no derivative financial instruments which could expose the Company to significant market risk. Marine Products maintains an investment portfolio, comprised primarily of municipal debt and corporate debt securities, which are subject to interest rate risk exposure. This risk is managed through conservative policies to invest in high-quality obligations. Marine Products has performed an interest rate sensitivity analysis using a duration model over the near term with a 10 percent change in interest rates. Marine Products’ portfolio is not subject to material interest rate risk exposure based on this analysis. Marine Products does not expect any material changes in market risk exposures or how those risks are managed. 38 MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING To the Stockholders of Marine Products Corporation: The management of Marine Products Corporation is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company. Marine Products Corporation maintains a system of internal accounting controls designed to provide reasonable assurance, at a reasonable cost, that assets are safeguarded against loss or unauthorized use and that the financial records are adequate and can be relied upon to produce financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The internal control system is augmented by written policies and procedures, an internal audit program and the selection and training of qualified personnel. This system includes policies that require adherence to ethical business standards and compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any controls system. A controls system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the controls system are met. Also, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and any instances of fraud, if any, within the Company will be detected. Further, the design of a controls system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. The Company intends to continually improve and refine its internal controls. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operations of our internal control over financial reporting, as of December 31, 2012 based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, management’s assessment is that Marine Products Corporation maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012. The independent registered public accounting firm, Grant Thornton LLP, has audited the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012, and has also issued their report on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, included in this report on page 40. Richard A. Hubbell President and Chief Executive Officer Ben M. Palmer Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer Atlanta, Georgia March 1, 2013 39 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING Board of Directors and Stockholders Marine Products Corporation We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Marine Products Corporation (a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2012, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by COSO. We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012, and our report dated March 1, 2013 expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements. Atlanta, Georgia March 1, 2013 40 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM ON CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Board of Directors and Stockholders Marine Products Corporation We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Marine Products Corporation (a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2012. Our audits of the basic consolidated financial statements included the financial statement schedule listed in the index appearing under Item 15(2). These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Marine Products Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2012 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein. We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), and our report dated March 1, 2013 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

The Company has only one reportable segment — its Powerboat Manufacturing business. The Company’s results of operations and its financial condition are not significantly reliant upon any single customer or product model. No single dealer accounted for more than 10 percent of net sales during 2012, 2011 or 2010. Net sales from the Company’s international dealers were approximately $30 million in 2012, $23 million in 2011, and $31 million in 2010. Nature of Operations — Marine Products is principally engaged in manufacturing powerboats and providing related products and services. Marine Products distributes fiberglass recreational boats through a network of domestic and international independent dealers. Common Stock — Marine Products is authorized to issue 74,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.10 par value. Holders of common stock are entitled to receive dividends when, as, and if declared by our Board of Directors out of legally available funds. Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. Holders of common stock do not have cumulative voting rights. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, holders of common stock are entitled to ratable distribution of the remaining assets available for distribution to stockholders. Preferred Stock — Marine Products is authorized to issue up to 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.10 par value. As of December 31, 2012, there were no shares of preferred stock issued. The Board of Directors is authorized, subject to any limitations prescribed by law, to provide for the issuance of preferred stock as a class without series or, if so determined from time to time, in one or more series, and by filing a certificate pursuant to the applicable laws of the state of Delaware and to fix the designations, powers, preferences and rights, exchangeability for shares of any other class or classes of stock. Any preferred stock to be issued could rank prior to the common stock with respect to dividend rights and rights on liquidation. Share Repurchases — The Company records the cost of share repurchases in stockholders’ equity as a reduction to common stock to the extent of par value of the shares acquired and the remainder is allocated to capital in excess of par value or retained earnings if capital in excess of par value has been depleted. Dividend — On January 23, 2013, the Board of Directors approved a quarterly dividend of $0.03 per common share to stockholders payable March 8, 2013 to stockholders of record at the close of business on February 8, 2013. Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of sales and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates are used in the determination of sales incentives and discounts, warranty costs, and income taxes. 47 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Marine Products Corporation and Subsidiaries Years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 Sales Recognition — Marine Products recognizes sales when a fully executed agreement exists, prices are established, products are delivered to the dealer in the case of domestic dealers and collectability is reasonably assured. See “Deferred Revenue” below for recognition of sales to international dealers. Deferred Revenue — Marine Products requires payment from international dealers, other than Canada, prior to shipment of products to these dealers. Amounts received from international dealers toward the purchase of boats are categorized as deferred revenue and recognized as sales when the products are shipped. Shipping and Handling Charges — The shipping and handling of the Company’s products to dealers is handled through a combination of third-party marine transporters and a company owned fleet of delivery trucks. Fees charged to customers for shipping and handling are included in net sales in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations; the related costs incurred by the Company are included in cost of goods sold. Advertising — Advertising expenses are charged to expense during the period in which they are incurred. Expenses associated with product brochures and other inventoriable marketing materials are deferred and amortized over the related model year which approximates the consumption of these materials. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company had approximately $264,000 and $155,000 in prepaid expenses related to unamortized product brochure costs. Advertising expenses totaled approximately $2,000,000 in 2012, $1,353,000 in 2011 and $1,030,000 in 2010. Sales Incentives and Discounts — Sales incentives including dealer discounts and retail sales promotions are provided for and recorded as a reduction in sales. The Company records the estimated cost of these incentives at the later of the recognition of the related sales or the announcement of a promotional program. Cash and Cash Equivalents — Highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less when acquired are considered to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash in bank accounts, which at times, may exceed federally insured limits. Marketable Securities — Marine Products maintains investments at a large, well-capitalized financial institution. Marine Products’ investment policy does not allow investment in any securities rated less than “investment grade” by national rating services. Management determines the appropriate classification of debt securities at the time of purchase and re-evaluates 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 taxes, 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. Net realized gains on marketable securities totaled $290,000 in 2012, $64,000 in 2011, and $28,000 in 2010. Of the total gains realized, reclassification from other comprehensive income totaled approximately $290,000 in 2012, $64,000 in 2011, and $28,000 in 2010. Gross unrealized gains on marketable securities totaled $332,000 at December 31, 2012 and $354,000 at December 31, 2011. Gross unrealized losses on marketable securities totaled $20,000 at December 31, 2012 and $29,000 at December 31, 2011. The amortized cost basis, fair value and net unrealized gains of the available-for-sale securities are as follows: 48 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Marine Products Corporation and Subsidiaries Years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 December 31, Type of Securities (in thousands) Municipal Obligations . .

Corporate obligations consist primarily of debentures and notes issued by other companies ranging in maturity from one to three years. These securities are rated A3 or higher. Investments with remaining maturities of less than 12 months are considered to be current marketable securities. Investments with remaining maturities greater than 12 months are considered to be non-current marketable securities. The Company’s non-current marketable securities are scheduled to mature between 2014 and 2041. Corporate backed obligations consist primarily of debentures and notes issued by other companies ranging in maturity from one to three years. These securities are rated A3 or higher. Accounts Receivable — The majority of the Company’s accounts receivable are due from dealers located in markets throughout the United States. Approximately 67 percent of Marine Products’ domestic shipments are made pursuant to “floor plan financing” programs in which Marine Products’ subsidiaries participate on behalf of their dealers with various major third-party financing institutions. Under these arrangements, a dealer establishes lines of credit with one or more of these third-party lenders for the purchase of boat inventory for sales to retail customers in their show room or during boat show exhibitions. When a dealer purchases and takes delivery of a boat pursuant to a floor plan financing arrangement, it draws against its line of credit and the lender pays the invoice cost of the boat directly to Marine Products within approximately five business days. The Company determines its allowance for doubtful accounts by considering a number of factors, including the length of time trade accounts receivable are past due, the Company’s previous loss history, the customer’s current ability to pay its obligation to the Company, and the condition of the general economy and the industry as a whole. The Company writes-off accounts receivable when they become uncollectible, and payments subsequently received on such receivables are credited to the allowance. Inventories — Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (determined on a first-in, first-out basis) or market value. Market value is determined based on replacement cost for raw materials and net realizable value for work in process and finished goods. Property, Plant and Equipment — Property, plant and equipment is carried at cost. Depreciation is provided principally on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The cost of assets retired or otherwise disposed of and the related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts in the year of disposal with the resulting gain or loss credited or charged to income. Expenditures for additions, major renewals, and betterments are capitalized while expenditures for routine maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation expense on operating equipment used in production is included in cost of goods sold in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. All other depreciation is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment when indicators of impairment exist. Goodwill and Other Intangibles — Intangibles consist primarily of goodwill and trade names related to businesses acquired. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets of businesses acquired. The carrying amount of goodwill was $3,308,000 as of December 31, 2012 49 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Marine Products Corporation and Subsidiaries Years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 and 2011. The company evaluates whether goodwill is impaired by comparing its market capitalization based on its closing stock price (Level 1 input) to the book value of its equity on the annual evaluation date. Based on this evaluation, the company concluded that no impairment of its goodwill has occurred for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010. Investments — The Company maintains certain securities in the non-qualified Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan that have been classified as trading. See Note 10 for further information regarding these securities. 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 extending up to 10 years. The Company accrues for estimated future warranty costs at the time of the sale based on its historical claims experience. An analysis of the warranty accruals for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 is as follows: (in thousands) Balance at beginning of year . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

The estimated cost of claims under the self-insurance program is accrued as the claims are incurred and may subsequently be revised based on developments relating to such claims. Research and Development Costs — The Company expenses research and development costs for new products and components as incurred. Research and development costs are included in selling, general and administrative expenses and totaled $768,000 in 2012, $789,000 in 2011, and $489,000 in 2010. Repurchase Obligations — The Company has entered into agreements with third-party floor plan lenders where it has agreed, in the event of default by the dealer, to repurchase MPC boats repossessed from the dealer. These arrangements are subject to maximum repurchase amounts and the associated risk is mitigated by the value of the boats repurchased. The Company accrues estimated losses when a loss, due primarily to the default of one of our dealers, is determined to be probable and the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable. Income Taxes — Deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between the financial and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company establishes a valuation allowance against the carrying value of deferred tax assets if the Company concludes that it is more likely than not that the asset will not be realized through future taxable income. Stock-Based Compensation — Stock-based compensation expense is recognized for all share-based payment awards, net of an estimated forfeiture rate. Thus, compensation cost is amortized for those shares expected to vest on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award. See Note 10 for additional information. Earnings per Share — FASB ASC Topic 260-10 “Earnings Per Share-Overall,” requires a basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share presentation. During 2009, the Company adopted certain amendments to ASC 260-10 which requires that all outstanding unvested share-based payment awards that 50 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Marine Products Corporation and Subsidiaries Years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents, whether paid or unpaid, be considered participating securities and included in the calculation of its basic earnings per share. See Note 10 for further information on restricted stock granted to employees. The basic and diluted 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 income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the respective periods. A reconciliation of weighted average shares outstanding along with the earnings per share attributable to restricted shares of common stock (participating securities) is as follows: (In thousands except per share data) Net income available for stockholders: . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

The carrying value of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of such instruments. The Company’s marketable securities are classified as available-for- sale securities with the exception of investments held in the non-qualified Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”) which are classified as trading securities. All of these securities are carried at fair value in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. See Note 8 for further information regarding the fair value measurement of assets and liabilities. Concentration of Suppliers — The Company purchases a significant number of its sterndrive engines from only two available suppliers. This concentration of suppliers could impact our sales and profitability in the event of a sudden interruption in the delivery of these engines. New Accounting Standards — During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued the following Accounting Standards Updates (ASU): Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements: • • ASU 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income. The amendments to the Codification in this ASU allow an entity the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In both choices, an entity is required to present each component of net income along with total net income, each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income, and a total amount for comprehensive income. This ASU eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. The amendments to the Codification in the ASU do not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income. The amendments are to be applied retrospectively and are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company has adopted these provisions in the first quarter of 2012 and has presented a separate statement of comprehensive income consecutively after the statement of operations showing net income in the accompanying financial statements. Adoption of these provisions did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. ASU 2012-02, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment. The amendments in this codification permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is “more likely than not” that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. If, after assessing the totality of events and circumstances, an entity concludes that it is not more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired, then the entity is not required to take further action. However, if an entity concludes otherwise, then it is required to perform the quantitative impairment test by comparing the fair value with the carrying amount in accordance with Codification Subtopic 350-30. An entity has the option to bypass the qualitative assessment for any indefinite-lived intangible asset in any period, proceeding directly to performing the quantitative impairment test and resume performing the qualitative assessment in any subsequent period. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012 with early adoption being permitted, including for annual and interim impairment tests performed as of a date before July 27, 2012, if an entity’s financial statements for the most recent annual or interim period have not been issued. The Company adopted these provisions in the fourth quarter of 2012 for annual and interim 52 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Marine Products Corporation and Subsidiaries Years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 impairment tests performed starting this year. Adoption of these provisions did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted: • • Accounting Standards Update 2013-02, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. The amendments in this ASU do not change the current requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income in financial statements. All of the information that this ASU requires already is required to be disclosed elsewhere in the financial statements under U.S. GAAP. The amendments are effective for all reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012, with early adoption permitted. The Company plans to adopt these provisions in the first quarter of 2013. Adoption of these provisions is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and the Company will comply with the additional disclosures as required. Accounting Standards Update 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. The amendments to the Codification in this ASU are part of an ongoing effort to bring congruence between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. The amendments in this ASU require an entity to disclose information about derivatives that are subject to a legally enforceable netting arrangement with the same party where rights of set-off are only available in the event of default or bankruptcy and can be presented as a single net amount in the statement of financial position. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods, with the required disclosures being provided retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of these provisions in the first quarter of 2013.

As of December 31, 2012 the company has net operating loss carry forwards related to state income taxes and credits of approximately $18.3 million that will expire between 2013 and 2030. As of December 31, 2012 the company has a valuation allowance of approximately $4.2 milllion, representing the tax affected amount of state tax credits and loss carry forwards that the company does not expect to utilize, against the corresponding deferred tax asset. The Company’s policy is to record interest and penalties related to income tax matters as income tax expense. Accrued interest and penalties were immaterial as of December 31, 2012 and 2011. In accordance with the accounting guidance relating to the accounting for uncertainty in income tax reporting, which provides criteria for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of uncertain tax positions, the Company did not recognize a material adjustment in the liability for unrecognized income tax benefits. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, our liability for unrecognized tax benefits was $14,000 and $23,000, respectively, all of which would affect our effective rate if recognized. The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal and state income tax in multiple jurisdictions. In many cases our uncertain tax positions are related to tax years that remain open and subject to examination by the relevant taxing authorities. The Company’s 2009 through 2012 tax years remain open to examination. 55 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Marine Products Corporation and Subsidiaries Years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 It is reasonably possible that the amount of the unrecognized benefits with respect to our unrecognized tax positions will increase or decrease in the next 12 months. These changes may be the result of, among other things, state tax settlements under voluntary disclosure agreements. However, quantification of an estimated range cannot be made at this time. The American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 (“Act”) was signed into law on January 2, 2013 and includes an extension for one year of the 50% bonus depreciation allowance. The provision specifically applies to qualifying property placed in service before January 1, 2014. The acceleration of deductions on 2012 qualifying capital expenditures resulting from the bonus depreciation provision had no impact on our 2012 effective tax rate. Additionally, the Act retroactively reinstates the provisions of the research and experimentation credits (“R&E credits”) for 2012 and 2013. As a result of the retroactive extension, our effective rate for the first quarter of 2013 may include a tax benefit from the R&E credits attributable to 2012 and the first quarter of 2013.

The hierarchy consists of three broad levels as follows: 1. Level 1 – Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. 2. Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. 3. Level 3 – Unobservable inputs developed using the Company’s estimates and assumptions, which reflect those that market participants would use. 56 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Marine Products Corporation and Subsidiaries Years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 The following table summarizes the valuation of financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis on the balance sheet as of December 31, 2012 and 2011: (in thousands) Assets: Trading securities . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

The trading securities are comprised of the SERP assets, as described in Note 10, and are recorded primarily at their net cash surrender values, which approximates fair value, as provided by the issuing insurance company. Significant observable inputs, in addition to quoted market prices, were used to value the trading securities. As a result, the Company classified these investments as using level 2 inputs. The Company’s policy is to recognize transfers between levels at the beginning of quarterly reporting periods. For the year ended December 31, 2012 there were no significant transfers in or out of levels 1, 2 or 3. 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. The Company currently does not use the fair value option to measure any of its existing financial instruments and has not determined whether or not it will elect this option for financial instruments it may acquire in the future. 57 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Marine Products Corporation and Subsidiaries Years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 NOTE 9: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Lawsuits — The Company is a defendant in certain lawsuits which allege that plaintiffs have been damaged as a result of the use of the Company’s products. The Company is vigorously contesting these actions. Management, after consultation with legal counsel, is of the opinion that the outcome of these lawsuits will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations or liquidity of Marine Products. Dealer Floor Plan Financing — To assist dealers in obtaining financing for the purchase of its boats for inventory, the Company has entered into agreements with various dealers and selected third-party floor plan lenders to guarantee varying amounts of qualifying dealers’ debt obligations. 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 to the Company in new and unused condition subject to normal wear and tear as defined, 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. There were no material repurchases of inventory under contractual agreements during 2012. The Company became contractually obligated to repurchase inventory for approximately $0.8 million during 2011 and recorded costs of approximately $86,000 as a reduction of net sales in connection with these repurchases, including the write down of repurchased inventory to net realizable value. 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 lenders and will adjust the guarantee liability at the end of each reporting period based on information reasonably available at that time. The Company currently has an agreement with one of the floor plan lenders whereby the contractual repurchase limit is to not exceed 15 percent of the amount of the average net receivables financed by the floor plan lender for dealers during the prior 12 month period. The Company has contractual repurchase agreements with additional lenders with an aggregate maximum repurchase obligation of approximately $5.4 million, with various expiration and cancellation terms of less than one year, for an aggregate repurchase obligation with all financing institutions of approximately $10.7 million as of December 31, 2012. This repurchase obligation risk is mitigated by the value of the boat repurchased. Lease Obligations — In June 2001, the Company entered into a lease transaction for existing boat manufacturing space located in Valdosta, Georgia. This lease was accounted for as a capital lease and was paid in full in December, 2012, which is reflected in the financing section of the cash flow statement. Minimum annual operating lease obligations with terms in excess of one year, in effect at December 31, 2012, are summarized in the following table: (in thousands) 2013 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2014 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2015 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2016 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2017 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Other long-term liabilities included the Company’s estimated liabilities for these probable assessments and totaled approximately $48,000 as of December 31, 2012 and $57,000 as of December 31, 2011. Employment Agreements — The Company has agreements with two employees, which provide for a monthly payment to each of the employees equal to 10 percent of profits (defined as pretax income before goodwill adjustments and certain allocated corporate expenses) in addition to a base salary. The expense under these agreements totaled approximately $3,294,000 in 2012, $2,331,000 in 2011 and $1,937,000 in 2010 and is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. NOTE 10: EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (SERP) The Company permits selected highly compensated employees to defer a portion of their compensation into the SERP. The SERP assets are invested primarily in company-owned life insurance (“COLI”) policies as a funding source to satisfy the obligation of the SERP. The assets are subject to claims by creditors, and the Company can designate them to another purpose at any time. Investments in COLI policies consist of variable life insurance policies of $7.7 million as of December 31, 2012 and $7.2 million as of December 31, 2011. In the COLI policies, the Company is able to allocate assets across a set of choices provided by the insurance company, including fixed income securities and equity funds. The COLI policies are recorded at their net cash surrender values, which approximates fair value, as provided by the issuing insurance company, whose Standard & Poor’s credit rating was A+. During 2011, as a result of COLI policy claims, the Company received $3.7 million in proceeds and recorded a tax-free gain of $2.0 million, reflected in Other Income. The Company classifies the SERP assets as trading securities as described in Note 1. The fair value of these assets totaled $6,026,000 as of December 31, 2012 and $6,510,000 as of December 31, 2011. The SERP assets are reported in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets and changes related to the fair value of the assets are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Trading gains (losses) related to the SERP assets totaled $181,000 in 2012, $(38,000) in 2011 and $(5,000) in 2010. The SERP liabilities are recorded on the balance sheet in pension liabilities with any change in the fair value of the SERP liabilities recorded as selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Retirement Income Plan — Marine Products participates in the tax-qualified, defined benefit, noncontributory, trusteed retirement income plan sponsored by RPC, Inc. (“RPC”) that covers substantially all employees with at least one year of service prior to 2002. 59 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Marine Products Corporation and Subsidiaries Years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 The Company’s projected benefit obligation exceeded the fair value of the plan assets for its Retirement Income Plan by $413,000 and thus the plan was under-funded as of December 31, 2012.

It includes a review of anticipated future long-term performance of individual asset classes and consideration of the appropriate asset allocation strategy given the anticipated requirements of the plan to determine the average rate of earnings expected on the funds invested to provide for the pension plan benefits. While the assessment gives appropriate consideration to recent fund performance and historical returns, the rate of return assumption is derived primarily from a long-term, prospective view. Based on its recent assessment, the Company has concluded that its expected long-term return assumption of seven percent is reasonable. The plan’s weighted average asset allocation at December 31, 2012 and 2011 by asset category along with the target allocation for 2013 are as follows: Asset Category Cash and Cash Equivalents . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Equity securities primarily include investments in large-cap and mid-cap companies. Fixed-income securities include corporate bonds of companies in diversified securities, mortgage-backed securities, and U.S. Treasuries. Other types of investments include hedge funds and private equity funds that follow several different investment strategies. For each of the asset categories in the pension plan, the investment strategy is identical – maximize the long-term rate of return on plan assets with an acceptable level of risk in order to minimize the cost of providing pension benefits. The investment policy establishes a target allocation for each asset class which is rebalanced as required. The plans utilize a number of investment approaches, including individual market securities, equity and fixed income funds in which the underlying securities are marketable, and debt funds to achieve this target allocation. The Company and management are considering making a contribution to the pension plan of approximately $50,000 during fiscal year 2013. Some of our assets, primarily our private equity, real estate and hedge funds, do not have readily determinable market values given the specific investment structures involved and the nature of the underlying investments. For plan asset reporting as of December 31, 2012, publicly traded asset pricing was used where possible. For assets without readily determinable values, estimates were derived from investment manager discussions focusing on underlying fundamentals and significant events. Included among the asset categories for the Plans’ investments are real estate and other investments comprised of investments in real estate and hedge funds. These investments are categorized as level 3 investments and are valued using significant non-observable inputs which do not have a readily determinable fair value. In accordance with ASU No. 2010-12 “Investments In Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (Or Its Equivalent),” these investments are valued based on the net 62 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Marine Products Corporation and Subsidiaries Years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 asset value per share calculated by the funds in which the plan has invested. These valuations are subject to judgments and assumptions of the funds which may prove to be incorrect, resulting in risks of incorrect valuation of these investments. The Company seeks to mitigate these risks by evaluating the appropriateness of the funds’ judgments and assumptions by reviewing the financial data included in the funds’ financial statements for reasonableness. The following tables present our plan assets using the fair value hierarchy as of December 31, 2012 and 2011. The fair value hierarchy has three levels based on the reliability of the inputs used to determine fair value. See Note 8 for a brief description of the three levels under the fair value hierarchy.

This plan allows employees to make tax-deferred contributions of up to 25 percent of their annual compensation, not exceeding the permissible deduction imposed by the Internal Revenue Code. The Company matches 50 percent of each employee’s contributions that do not exceed six percent of the employee’s compensation, as defined by the 401(k) plan. Employees vest in the Company’s contributions after three years of service. The charges to expense for Marine Products’ contributions to the 401(k) plan were approximately $164,000 in 2012, $130,000 in 2011 and $114,000 in 2010. Stock Incentive Plan — The Company reserved 2,250,000 shares of common stock under a Stock Incentive Plan with a term of ten years. This plan provides for the issuance of various forms of stock incentives, including, among others, incentive and non-qualified stock options and restricted stock. As of December 31, 2012, there were approximately 617,000 shares available for grants. The Company recognizes compensation expense for the unvested portion of awards outstanding over the remainder of the service period. The compensation cost recorded for these awards will be based on their fair value at grant date less the cost of estimated forfeitures. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods to reflect actual forfeitures. Cash flows related to share-based awards to employees that result in tax benefits in excess of recognized cumulative compensation cost (excess tax benefits) are classified as financing cash flows. 64 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Marine Products Corporation and Subsidiaries Years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 Pre-tax stock-based employee compensation expense was approximately $1,495,000 ($964,000 after tax) for 2012, $1,296,000 ($836,000 after tax) for 2011 and $1,542,000 ($995,000 after tax) for 2010. Stock Options — Stock options are granted at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant except for grants of incentive stock options to owners of greater than 10 percent of the Company’s voting securities which must be made at 110 percent of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock. Options generally vest ratably over a period of five years and expire in 10 years, except to owners of greater than 10 percent of the Company’s voting securities, which expire in five years. The Company estimates the fair value of stock options as of the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Company has not granted stock options to employees since 2004. Transactions involving the Marine Products stock options for the year ended December 31, 2012 were as follows: Shares Outstanding at January 1, 2012 . . . . . . . . . . . . . 564,735 — Granted . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

There were no tax benefits associated with the exercise of stock options during 2012, because all of the options exercised were incentive stock options which do not generate tax deductions for the Company. There were no tax benefits associated with the exercise of non-qualified stock options during 2012 or 2011. Restricted Stock — Marine Products grants employees time lapse restricted stock. Time lapse restricted shares vest after a certain stipulated number of years from the grant date, depending on the terms of the issue. Prior to 2004, the Company issued time lapse restricted shares that vest over ten years. Beginning in 2004, the Company issued time lapse restricted shares that vest in 20 percent increments starting with the second anniversary of the grant, over the six year period beginning on the date of grant. During these years, grantees receive all dividends declared and retain voting rights for the shares. The agreements under which the restricted stock is issued provide that shares awarded may not be sold or otherwise transferred until restrictions established under the stock plans have lapsed. Upon termination of employment from the Company (other than due to death, disability or retirement on or after age 65), shares with restrictions are forfeited in accordance with the plan. 65 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Marine Products Corporation and Subsidiaries Years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 The following is a summary of the changes in non-vested restricted shares for the year ended December 31, 2012: Non-vested shares at January 1, 2012 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

NOTE 11: RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS In conjunction with its spin-off from RPC in 2001, the Company and RPC entered into various agreements that define the companies’ relationship after the spin-off. The Transition Support Services Agreement provides for RPC to provide certain services, including financial reporting and income tax administration, acquisition assistance, etc., to Marine Products until the agreement is terminated by either party. Marine Products reimbursed RPC for its estimated allocable share of administrative costs incurred for services rendered on behalf of Marine Products totaling $544,000 in 2012, $639,000 in 2011 and $689,000 in 2010. The Company’s liability to RPC for these services as was approximately $94,000 as of December 31, 2012 and $3,000 as of December 31, 2011. The Company’s directors are also directors of RPC and all of the Company’s executive officers with the exception of one are employees of both the Company and RPC. The Employee Benefits Agreement provides for, among other things, the Company’s employees to continue participating subsequent to the spin-off in two RPC sponsored benefit plans, specifically, the defined contribution 401(k) plan and the defined benefit retirement income plan. 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. 66 Item 9.
