BLOOMFIELD HILLS, Mich., Oct. 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Penske Automotive Group, Inc. (NYSE: PAG), a diversified international transportation services company and one of the world's premier automotive and commercial truck retailers, today announced quarterly results for the third quarter of 2025. For the quarter, revenue increased 1.4% to $7.7 billion compared to $7.6 billion for the same period in 2024. Net income attributable to common stockholders decreased 6% to $213.0 million compared to $226.1 million in the prior year period, and related earnings per share decreased 5% to $3.23 compared to $3.39 for the same period in 2024. Foreign currency exchange positively impacted revenue by $92.8 million, net income attributable to common stockholders by $0.7 million, and earnings per share by $0.02.

Commenting on the Company's third quarter results, Chair Roger Penske said, "Overall, I am pleased with our performance during the third quarter. We grew same-store retail automotive new units delivered by 4%, reduced new vehicle inventory days supply by 6 days from the end of June and increased retail automotive service and parts revenue to a quarterly record of $818.3 million, including same-store service and parts revenue growth of 5%. In addition to the growth in service and parts revenue, we increased service and parts gross margin by 110 basis points and improved fixed cost absorption by 380 basis points in our U.S. retail automotive operations. However, overall profitability in the quarter was impacted by continued weakness in the North American freight market which drove lower sales and service of commercial trucks, coupled with challenges in the U.K auto retail market from a cyber security incident at one of our OEM partners, an increase in social program costs in the U.K., and a higher tax rate. As a result, third quarter earnings before taxes was negatively impacted by approximately $23 million."

Third Quarter 2025 Retail Automotive Highlights Compared to Third Quarter 2024

• Retail Automotive Same-Store New Units Delivered – increased 4%
• Retail Automotive Same-Store Revenue – increased 5%
  • New Vehicle +4%; Used Vehicle +8%; Finance & Insurance +4%; Service & Parts +5%
• Retail Automotive Same-Store Gross Profit – increased 3%
  • New Vehicle -5%; Used Vehicle +6%; Finance & Insurance +4%; Service & Parts +8%
• Retail Automotive Same-Store Service and Parts Gross Margin Increased 140 basis points to 59.1%

For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, revenue increased 1% from the same period in 2024 to a record of $23.0 billion. Net income attributable to common stockholders increased 4% to $707.3 million compared to $682.5 million in the prior year period, and related earnings per share increased 5% to $10.66 compared to $10.20 for the same period in 2024. As reconciled in the attached schedules, adjusted net income increased 1% to $689.3 million and adjusted earnings per share increased 2% to $10.39. Foreign currency exchange positively impacted revenue by $189.0 million, net income attributable to common stockholders by $1.8 million, and earnings per share by $0.02.

Retail Automotive Dealerships

For the three months ended September 30, 2025, total new units delivered increased 1%. New units increased 6% in the U.S. and declined 5% internationally. Used units delivered decreased 5%, consisting of a 1% decrease in the U.S. and a 10% decrease internationally. The decrease in used units internationally is largely attributable to the previously announced realignment of the Company's U.K. used only dealerships to Sytner Select as we either closed or sold four locations. The Sytner Select locations are more closely aligned with the existing franchised dealer operations and focus on retailing fewer units at higher margin and lower costs. Excluding the performance of the U.K. Sytner Select locations in both periods, used units delivered decreased 2%. Total retail automotive revenue increased 4% to $6.6 billion and increased 5% on a same-store basis. Total retail automotive gross profit increased 2% to $1.1 billion, and same-store gross profit increased 3%, driven by an 8% increase in same-store service and parts.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, total new units delivered increased 1%. Used units delivered decreased 13%. Excluding the performance of the U.K. Sytner Select locations in both periods, used units delivered decreased 2%. Total retail automotive revenue increased 1% to $19.7 billion and increased 2% on a same-store basis. Total retail automotive gross profit increased 3% to $3.3 billion, and same-store gross profit increased 3%, driven by an 8% increase in same-store service and parts.

Retail Commercial Truck Dealerships

As of September 30, 2025, Premier Truck Group operated 45 North American retail commercial truck locations. For the three months ended September 30, 2025, retail unit sales decreased 19% to 5,108 from 6,331 and decreased 19% on a same-store basis as continued weakness in the freight market impacted new and used truck demand. Earnings before taxes was $41.5 million compared to $56.5 million in the prior year period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, revenue decreased 2% to $2.69 billion from $2.75 billion and decreased 7% on a same-store basis, and earnings before taxes was $140.8 million compared to $158.7 million in the prior year period.

During September 2025, we repaid in full at scheduled maturity our $550 million of 3.50% senior subordinated notes due September 1, 2025. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company repurchased 934,122 shares of common stock, or approximately 1.4% of its outstanding shares, consisting of 796,716 shares of common stock for approximately $119.0 million under our securities repurchase program and 137,406 shares of our common stock for $22.6 million from employees in connection with a net share settlement feature of employee equity awards.
