CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
NOTE 1. INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
Basis of Presentation
These Consolidated Financial Statements contain unaudited information as of June 30, 2025, and for the three and
six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. The unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared
pursuant to the rules and regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain disclosures required by
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for annual financial statements are not
included herein. In management’s opinion, these unaudited financial statements reflect all adjustments (which
include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the information when read in
conjunction with our 2024 audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes thereto. The financial
information as of December 31, 2024, is derived from our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on
February 24, 2025. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the
results to be expected for the full year.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications of amounts previously reported have been made to the accompanying Consolidated
Financial Statements to maintain consistency and comparability between periods presented. Within our financing
operations income, we disaggregated our lease income out of our previously reported interest, fee, and lease
income to be its own separately presented line item, as well as revised the related lease depreciation and
amortization to now be reported as lease costs, reclassifying amounts previously reported net within lease income.
Correction of an Error
In the three months ended March 31, 2025, we identified an immaterial error related to interest and fee income
recognition in our previously issued financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024. As a result,
retained earnings and finance receivables were overstated, and prepaid income taxes were understated.
In accordance with ASC 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, we corrected this error by retrospectively
restating the affected prior periods in this Form 10-Q.
The following tables summarize the impact of the correction on our Consolidated Financial Statements:

NOTE 4. FINANCE RECEIVABLES
Interest income on finance receivables is recognized based on the contractual terms of each receivable and is
accrued until repayment, reaching non-accrual status, charge-off, or repossession. Direct costs associated with
originations are capitalized and expensed as an offset to interest income when recognized on the receivables.
The balances of finance receivables are made up of loans and finance leases secured by the related vehicles. More
than 99% of the portfolio is aged less than 60 days past due with less than 1% on non-accrual status.

In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 326, the allowance for credit losses on finance receivables is estimated based
on our historical write-off experience, current conditions and forecasts, as well as the value of any underlying assets
securing these receivables. Consideration is given to recent delinquency trends and recovery rates. Account
balances are charged against the allowance upon reaching 120 days past due status.
Rollforward of Allowance for Credit Losses on Finance Receivables

NOTE 7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Contract Liabilities
We are the obligor on our lifetime oil and at home valet contracts. Revenue is allocated to these performance
obligations and is recognized over time as services are provided to the customer. The amount of revenue
recognized is calculated, net of cancellations, using an input method, which most closely depicts performance of the
contracts. Our contract liability balances were $440.1 million and $410.4 million as of June 30, 2025, and
December 31, 2024, respectively; and we recognized $38.7 million and $78.7 million of revenue in the three and six
months ended June 30, 2025 related to our contract liability balance at December 31, 2024. Our contract liability
balance is included in Accrued liabilities and Deferred revenue on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Litigation
We are party to numerous legal proceedings arising in the normal course of our business. Although we do not
anticipate that the resolution of legal proceedings arising in the normal course of business will have a material
adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows, we cannot predict this with
certainty.

As of June 30, 2025, we had $568.8 million available for repurchases pursuant to our share repurchase
authorizations from our Board in 2025 and prior years.
In addition, during 2025, we repurchased 36,466 shares at an average price of $357.26 per share, for a total of
$13.0 million, related to tax withholding associated with the vesting of RSUs. The repurchase of shares related to
tax withholding associated with stock awards does not reduce the number of shares available for repurchase as
approved by our Board.
NOTE 11. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Factors used in determining the fair value of our financial assets and liabilities are summarized into three broad
categories:
•Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical securities;
•Level 2 - other significant observable inputs, including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates,
prepayment spreads, credit risk; and
•Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs, including our own assumptions in determining fair value.
We determined the carrying value of cash, restricted cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable, trade payables,
accrued liabilities, finance receivables, and short-term borrowings approximate their fair values because of the
nature of their terms and current market rates of these instruments. We believe the carrying value of our variable
rate debt approximates fair value.
We have money market securities, which include restricted cash from collections on finance receivables, recorded
as a component of Cash, restricted cash, and cash equivalents in our Consolidated Balance Sheets, as well as
restricted cash on deposit in reserve accounts, recorded as a component of Other non-current assets in our
Consolidated Balance Sheets. These money market securities consist of highly liquid investments with original
maturities of three months or less and are classified as Level 1.
We have investments consisting of equity securities, available for sale debt securities, and equity method
investments with a fair value election. We calculated the estimated fair value of the equity securities, equity method
investments, and U.S. Treasury debt securities using quoted market prices (Level 1). The fair value of corporate and
municipal debt securities are measured using observable Level 2 market expectations at each measurement date.
See Note 6 – Investments.
We have fixed rate debt primarily consisting of amounts outstanding under our senior notes, non-recourse notes
payable, and real estate mortgages. We calculated the estimated fair value of the senior notes using quoted prices
for the identical liability (Level 1). The fair value of non-recourse notes payable are measured using observable
Level 2 market expectations at each measurement date. The calculated estimated fair values of the fixed rate real
estate mortgages and finance lease liabilities use a discounted cash flow methodology with estimated current
interest rates based on a similar risk profile and duration (Level 2). The fixed cash flows are discounted and
summed to compute the fair value of the debt.
We have derivative instruments consisting of an offsetting set of interest rate caps. The fair value of derivative
assets and liabilities are measured using observable Level 2 market expectations at each measurement date and is
recorded as other current assets, current liabilities and other long-term liabilities in the Consolidated Balance
Sheets.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Table of Contents
Nonfinancial assets such as goodwill, franchise value, or other long-lived assets are measured and recorded at fair
value during a business combination or when there is an indicator of impairment. We evaluate our goodwill and
franchise value using a qualitative assessment process. If the qualitative factors determine that it is more likely than
not that the carrying value exceeds the fair value, we would further evaluate for potential impairment using a
quantitative assessment. The quantitative assessment estimates fair values using unobservable (Level 3) inputs by
discounting expected future cash flows of the store for franchise value, or reporting unit for goodwill. The forecasted
cash flows contain inherent uncertainties, including significant estimates and assumptions related to growth rates,
margins, working capital requirements, and cost of capital, for which we utilize certain market participant-based
assumptions we believe to be reasonable. We estimate the value of other long-lived assets that are recorded at fair
value on a non-recurring basis on a market valuation approach. We use prices and other relevant information
generated primarily by recent market transactions involving similar or comparable assets, as well as our historical
experience in divestitures, acquisitions and real estate transactions. Additionally, we may use a cost valuation
approach to value long-lived assets when a market valuation approach is unavailable. Under this approach, we
determine the cost to replace the service capacity of an asset, adjusted for physical and economic obsolescence.
When available, we use valuation inputs from independent valuation experts, such as real estate appraisers and
brokers, to corroborate our estimates of fair value. Real estate appraisers’ and brokers’ valuations are typically
developed using one or more valuation techniques including market, income and replacement cost approaches.
Because these valuations contain unobservable inputs, we classified the measurement of fair value of long-lived
assets as Level 3.
There were no changes to our valuation techniques during the six-month period ended June 30, 2025.

•In March 2025, Elk Grove Subaru in California.
•In June 2025, Collierville Mercedes-Benz in Tennessee.
•In June 2025, Jackson Mercedes-Benz in Mississippi.
The acquisitions were accounted for as business combinations under the acquisition method of accounting. The
results of operations of the acquired stores are included in our Consolidated Financial Statements from the date of
acquisition.

The PPA for the 2025 acquisitions is preliminary, as we have not obtained and evaluated all of the detailed
information necessary to finalize the opening balance sheet amounts in all respects. We recorded the PPA based
upon information that is currently available and recorded unallocated items as a component of Other non-current
assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
We expect all of the goodwill related to the acquisitions in 2025 to be deductible for U.S. federal income tax
purposes.
In the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2025, we recorded $0.1 million and $0.3 million in acquisition-
related expenses as a component of SG&A expense. Comparatively, we recorded $1.8 million and $9.5 million of
acquisition-related expenses in the same periods of 2024.
 
The following unaudited pro forma summary presents consolidated information as if all acquisitions in the three and

These amounts have been calculated by applying our accounting policies and estimates. The results of the acquired
stores have been adjusted to reflect the following: depreciation on a straight-line basis over the expected lives for
property and equipment, accounting for inventory on a specific identification method, and recognition of interest
expense for real estate financing related to stores where we purchased the facility. No nonrecurring proforma
adjustments directly attributable to the acquisitions are included in the reported proforma revenues and earnings.
NOTE 13. EARNINGS PER SHARE
We calculate basic EPS by dividing net income attributable to Lithia Motors, Inc. by the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding for the period, including vested RSU awards. Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing net
income attributable to Lithia Motors, Inc. by the weighted average number of shares outstanding, adjusted for the
dilutive effect of unvested RSU awards and employee stock purchases.

NOTE 15. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 related to improvements to income tax disclosures. The
amendments in this update require enhanced jurisdictional and other disaggregated disclosures for the effective tax
rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The amendments in this update are effective for annual periods beginning
after December 15, 2024. We plan to adopt this pronouncement and make the necessary updates to our
disclosures for the year ending December 31, 2025, and, aside from these disclosure changes, we do not expect
the amendments to have a material effect on our financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03 related to the disaggregation of certain income statement
expenses. The amendments in this update require public entities to disclose incremental information related to
purchases of inventory, team member compensation, and depreciation, which will provide investors the ability to
better understand entity expenses and make their own judgements about entity performance. The amendments in
this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026. We plan to adopt this pronouncement
and make the necessary updates to our disclosures for the year ending December 31, 2027, and, aside from these
disclosure changes, we do not expect the amendments to have a material effect on our financial statements.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Table of Contents
strive for diversification in our products, services, brands, and geographic locations to reduce dependence on any
one manufacturer, reduce susceptibility to changing consumer preferences, manage market risk and maintain
profitability. Our diversification, along with our operating structure, provides a resilient and nimble business model.
We seek to provide customers with a seamless, blended online and physical retail experience, broad selection, and
access to specialized expertise and knowledge. Our comprehensive network provides convenient touch points for
customers and provides services throughout the vehicle life cycle. We seek to increase market share and optimize
profitability by focusing on the consumer experience and applying proprietary performance measurement systems
fueled by data science. Our Driveway and GreenCars brands and online customer portal complement our in-store
experiences in the United States and provide convenient, simple, and transparent platforms that serve as our e-
commerce home solutions and allow us to deliver differentiated, proprietary digital experiences. Enhancing our
business, our captive auto financing division allows us to provide financing solutions for customers and diversify our
business model with adjacent products.
Our long-term strategy to create value for our customers, team members and shareholders includes the following
elements:
Driving operational excellence, innovation and diversification
LAD builds magnetic customer loyalty across our 448 stores, our Driveway and GreenCars e-commerce platforms,
and our entire omnichannel ecosystem by focusing on convenient and transparent experiences supported by
proprietary data science. Our entrepreneurial model that emphasizes personal accountability for our team powers
efficient operations and allows dynamic responsiveness to each of our local markets. Our best-in-class performance
management reporting provides the foundation to enable high-performing teams to drive our platform’s full potential.
Investments across our ecosystem built a framework that is responsive to evolving consumer preferences, providing
a foundation that supports our current business and our ongoing expansion. These investments, particularly in our
digital strategies, connect our experienced, knowledgeable team members with our expansive inventory and
physical network of stores to ensure we are agile and adaptable. Additionally, we systematically explore and invest
in transformative adjacencies that are synergistic and complementary to our existing business, such as our captive
auto finance and fleet management offerings.
These investments support the foundational elements of our strategy. We seek to create durable customer loyalty in
our stores and our digital platforms, such as our My Driveway customer portal. These experiences and offerings,
backed by our extensive physical network, broad geographic reach, and customized digital offerings, empower our
people to provide transparent, flexible, and simple retail experiences.
Our performance-based culture is geared toward an incentive-based compensation structure for a majority of our
personnel. We develop pay plans that measure factors such as customer satisfaction, profitability, and individual
performance metrics. These plans reward team members for creating customer loyalty, achieving store potential,
developing high-performing talent, meeting and exceeding manufacturer requirements, and living our core values.
We centralize many administrative functions to drive efficiencies and streamline store-level operations. These
efficiencies allow our local managers to focus on serving customers to increase revenues and gross profit. Our
operations are supported by regional and corporate management, as well as dedicated training and personnel
development programs which allow us to share best practices across our network and develop talent.
Growth through acquisition and network optimization
Our acquisition growth strategy has diversified our business and been financially and culturally successful. Our
disciplined approach focuses on acquiring new vehicle franchises, which operate in markets ranging from mid-sized
regional markets to metropolitan markets. Acquisition of these businesses increases our proximity to consumers
throughout North America and the United Kingdom. While we target annual after tax return of more than 15% for our
acquisitions, we have averaged over a 25% return by the third year of ownership due to a disciplined approach
focusing on accretive, cash flow positive targets at reasonable valuations. In addition to being financially accretive,
acquisitions aim to drive network growth that improves our ability to serve customers through vast selection, greater
density, easy access, and the ability to leverage national branding and advertising.
As we focus on expanding our physical network of stores, one of the criteria we evaluate is a valuation multiple
between 3x to 6x of investment in intangibles to estimated annualized adjusted EBITDA, with various factors
Lithia Logo-Footer.jpg
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Table of Contents
including location, ability to expand our network and talent considered in determining value. We also target an
investment in intangibles as a percentage of annualized revenues in the range of 15% to 30%.
We regularly optimize and balance our network through strategic divestitures to ensure continued high performance.
We believe our disciplined approach provides us with attractive acquisition opportunities and expanded coast-to-
coast coverage.
Thoughtful capital allocation
We manage our liquidity and available cash to support our long-term plan focused on growth through acquisitions
and investments in our existing business, technology and adjacencies that expand and diversify our business
model. In the current market of elevated acquisition pricing, we have adjusted our free cash flow deployment
strategy. Under current conditions, including recent trends in our stock price, we may consider repurchases as a
more attractive use of funds than acquisitions. Our current free cash flow deployment strategy includes an allocation
of 25% to 35% investment in acquisitions, 25% investment in capital expenditures, innovation, and diversification
and 40% to 50% in shareholder return in the form of dividends and share repurchases based on current valuation
trends in acquisitions relative to stock price performance. During the first six months of 2025, we utilized $148.8
million for capital expenditures investing in our existing business, paid $28.2 million in dividends, and $263.3 million
in share repurchases. As of June 30, 2025, we had available liquidity of approximately $1.3 billion, which was
comprised of $202.8 million in unrestricted cash, $52.1 million in marketable securities, and $1.0 billion availability
on our credit facilities.
Financial Performance

We experienced growth of revenue in 2025 compared to 2024, primarily driven by increases in volume related to
acquisitions. Total gross profit grew in 2025 compared to 2024, primarily driven by acquisition growth and supported
by same store increases in aftersales and F&I. New vehicle retail gross profit decreased compared to 2024 due to
continued normalization of margins. Net income grew in 2025 compared to 2024, primarily as a result of our
increase in total gross profit and financing operations, while remaining diligent in managing SG&A costs, reducing
our total SG&A as a % of gross profit.

Same Store Operating Data
We believe that same store comparisons are an important indicator of our financial performance. Same store
measures demonstrate our ability to grow revenues in our existing locations. As a result, same store measures have
been integrated into the discussion below.
 
Same store measures reflect results for stores that were operating in each comparison period and only include the
months when operations occurred in both periods. For example, a store acquired in May 2024 would be included in
same store operating data beginning in June 2025, after its first complete comparable month of operation. The
second quarter operating results for the same store comparisons would include results for that store in only the
month of June for both comparable periods.

Used vehicle retail sales are a strategic focus for organic growth. We offer three categories of used vehicles:
manufacturer certified pre-owned (CPO) vehicles; core vehicles, or late-model vehicles with lower mileage; and
value autos, or vehicles with over 80,000 miles. We continue to focus on procuring vehicles across the full spectrum
of the addressable used vehicle market to provide customers with a wide selection meeting all levels of affordability,
driving increased used vehicle unit volumes. Our used vehicle operations provide an opportunity to generate sales
to customers unable or unwilling to purchase a new vehicle, sell brands other than the store’s new vehicle
franchise(s) and increase sales from finance and insurance and aftersales.

prices of 1.1%. Total same store used vehicle retail gross profit per unit, which includes the finance and insurance
revenue generated from the sales of used retail vehicles, increased $25 to $3,508.
Finance and Insurance
We believe that arranging vehicle financing is an important part of our ability to sell vehicles, and we attempt to
arrange financing for every vehicle we sell. We also offer related products such as extended warranties, insurance
contracts and vehicle and theft protection which promotes continued engagement with the consumer throughout the
ownership lifecycle.

period of 2024, driven by same store performance and supported by acquisition activity. Same store finance and
insurance revenues increased 3.8%. On a same store basis, our finance and insurance revenue per retail unit
increased $31 to $1,860.
Aftersales
We provide automotive repair and maintenance services for customers for the new vehicle brands sold by our
stores, as well as service and repairs for most other makes and models. These aftersales services are an integral
part of our customer retention and the largest contributor to our overall profitability. Earnings from aftersales
continue to prove to be more resilient during economic downturns, when owners tend to repair their existing
vehicles rather than buy new vehicles. We believe the increased number of units in operation will continue to benefit
our aftersales revenue in the coming years as more late-model vehicles age, necessitating repairs and
maintenance.
Q2 2025 vs. Q2 2024
Our aftersales revenue increased 7.6% in the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same period of
2024, driven by same store performance and supported by acquisition activity.
We focus on retaining customers by offering competitively-priced routine maintenance and through our marketing
efforts. Customer pay revenue accounted for the largest share of our same-store aftersales revenue, representing
56.3% of the total.
Same store aftersales gross profit increased 11.9%. This increase was primarily due to increased volumes of
warranty and customer pay transactions. Overall same store aftersales gross margins increased 180 bps, primarily
as a result of increased customer pay gross margin of 260 bps.
YTD 2025 vs. YTD 2024
Our aftersales revenue increased 7.5% in the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same period of
2024, driven by same store performance and supported by acquisition activity. Same store warranty revenues saw a
20.0% increase compared to the prior year.
Same store aftersales gross profit increased 9.7%. This increase was primarily due to increased volumes of
warranty transactions. Overall same store aftersales gross margins increased 220 bps, primarily as a result of
increased warranty gross margins of 120 bps and increase customer pay margins of 320 bps.
Financing Operations
In the United States, Financing Operations is a captive lender, originating loans only from our stores and Driveway.
In Canada, Financing Operations originates loans and leases from both our Canadian stores and third-party
dealerships. In the United Kingdom, Financing Operations is related to our fleet funding and management division.
These product offerings add diversity to the business model and provide an opportunity to capture additional profits,
cash flows, and sales while managing our reliance on third-party finance sources.
Financing Operations income reflects the interest and fee income generated by the portfolio of auto loan and
finance lease receivables, plus the lease income generated by our net investment in operating leases, less the
interest expense associated with the debt utilized to fund the lending, including internal capital, a provision for
estimated loan and lease losses, depreciation on vehicles leased via operating leases, and directly-related
expenses.

Q2 2025 vs. Q2 2024
Financing operations recorded higher income in the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same
period of 2024, primarily due to the increased interest income resulting from the growth of the portfolio and a
decreased cost of funds, which collectively expanded total interest margin to 4.6%.
Loan originations increased in the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same period of 2024, and
our penetration rate increased due to increased engagement with our stores. The weighted average contract rate of
loans originated in the three months ended June 30, 2025 decreased to 8.7%, compared with 9.9% in the same
period of 2024, primarily due to our maintaining competitive pricing following Federal Reserve rate cuts. The
decrease in annualized net charge-offs of past due accounts as a percentage of ending managed receivables

compared to the prior year reflects the increased credit quality of the portfolio as well as improved execution of our
collateral management team.
YTD 2025 vs. YTD 2024
Financing operations recorded higher income in the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same period
of 2024, primarily due to increased interest income resulting from the growth of the portfolio and a decreased cost of
funds, resulting in an expansion of total interest margin to 4.6%.
The weighted average contract rate on loans originated in the six months ended June 30, 2025 decreased to 8.9%,
compared with 10.0% in the same period of 2024 as we decreased rates to maintain competitiveness following
Federal Reserve rate cuts. The decrease in provision expense as a percentage of receivables compared to the prior
year reflected the increased credit quality of the portfolio as well as a decrease in the percentage of ending
managed receivables constituted by the allowance for loan losses. Other financing operations expenses as a
percentage of average managed receivables was flat with the same period of 2024 despite significant portfolio
growth, reflecting improved operational performance and economies of scale.

Floor Plan Interest Expense and Floor Plan Assistance
Floor plan assistance is provided by manufacturers to support store financing of vehicle inventory and is recorded
as a component of vehicle gross profit when the specific vehicle is sold. However, because manufacturers provide
this assistance to offset inventory carrying costs, we believe a comparison of floor plan interest expense to floor
plan assistance is a useful measure of the efficiency of our vehicle sales relative to stocking levels.
Shown below are the details for carrying costs for vehicles net of floor plan assistance earned:

Our effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to last year was negatively affected
by a decrease in general business credits, tax basis differences on divested assets, and an increase in valuation
allowance. Excluding non-core charges and acquired general business credits, we estimate our annual effective
income tax rate to be 26.6%.
Non-GAAP Reconciliations
Non-GAAP measures do not have definitions under GAAP and may be defined differently by and not comparable to
similarly titled measures used by other companies. As a result, we review any non-GAAP financial measures in
connection with a review of the most directly comparable measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. We

caution you not to place undue reliance on such non-GAAP measures, but also to consider them with the most
directly comparable GAAP measures. We believe each of the non-GAAP financial measures below improves the
transparency of our disclosures, provides a meaningful presentation of our results from the core business
operations because they exclude items not related to our ongoing core business operations and other non-cash
items, and improves the period-to-period comparability of our results from the core business operations. We use
these measures in conjunction with GAAP financial measures to assess our business, including our compliance with
covenants in our credit facility and in communications with our Board concerning financial performance. These
measures should not be considered an alternative to GAAP measures.
The following tables reconcile certain reported non-GAAP measures, which we refer to as “adjusted,” to the most
comparable GAAP measure from our Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
We manage our liquidity and capital resources in the context of our overall business strategy, continually forecasting
and managing our cash, working capital balances and capital structure in a way that we believe will meet the short-
term and long-term obligations of our business while maintaining liquidity and financial flexibility. Our current free
cash flow deployment strategy includes an allocation of 25% to 35% investment in acquisitions, 25% investment in
capital expenditures, innovation, and diversification and 40% to 50% in shareholder return in the form of dividends
and share repurchases based on current valuation trends in acquisitions relative to stock price performance.
We believe we have sufficient sources of funding to meet our business requirements for the next 12 months and in
the longer term. Cash flows from operations and borrowings under our credit facilities are our main sources for
liquidity. In addition to the above sources of liquidity, potential sources to fund our business strategy include
financing of real estate and proceeds from debt or equity offerings. We evaluate all of these options and may select
one or more of them depending on overall capital needs and the availability and cost of capital, although no
assurances can be provided that these capital sources will be available in sufficient amounts or with terms
acceptable to us.

Operating Activities
Cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2025 increased $187.4 million compared to
the same period of 2024, primarily related to changes in inventories, net income, and other long-term liabilities and
deferred revenue, partially offset by changes in floor plan notes payable, accrued liabilities, and finance receivables
compared to the same period of 2024.
 
Borrowings from and repayments to our syndicated credit facilities related to our new vehicle inventory floor plan
financing are presented as financing activities. To better understand the impact of changes in inventory, other
assets, and the associated financing, we also consider our adjusted net cash provided by operating activities to
include borrowings or repayments associated with our new vehicle floor plan commitment and exclude the impact of
our financing receivables activity. Adjusted net cash provided by operating activities, a non-GAAP measure, is

Capital Expenditures
Below is a summary of our capital expenditure activities ($ in millions):
316
Many manufacturers provide assistance in the form of additional incentives or assistance if facilities meet specified
standards and requirements. We expect that certain facility upgrades and remodels will generate additional
manufacturer incentive payments. Also, tax laws allowing accelerated deductions for capital expenditures reduce
the overall investment needed and encourage accelerated project timelines.
We expect to use a portion of our future capital expenditures to upgrade facilities that we recently acquired. This
additional capital investment is contemplated in our initial evaluation of the investment return metrics applied to
each acquisition and is usually associated with manufacturer standards and requirements.
Capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the same period of 2024 were lower for
existing facility purchases, maintenance, new operations purchases and improvements, and information technology,
and higher in existing operations improvements.
If we undertake a significant capital commitment in the future, we expect to pay for the commitment out of existing
cash balances, construction financing and borrowings on our credit facility. Upon completion of the projects, we
believe we would have the ability to secure long-term financing and general borrowings from third party lenders for
70% to 90% of the amounts expended, although no assurances can be provided that these financings will be
available to us in sufficient amounts or on terms acceptable to us.
Acquisitions
We focus on acquiring stores at attractive purchase prices that meet our return thresholds and strategic objectives.
We look for acquisitions that diversify our brand and geographic mix as we continue to evaluate our portfolio to
minimize exposure to any one manufacturer and achieve financial returns.
 
We are able to subsequently floor new vehicle inventory acquired as part of an acquisition; however, the cash
generated by this transaction is recorded as borrowings on floor plan notes payable, non-trade.
Adjusted net cash paid for acquisitions, a non-GAAP measure, as well as certain other acquisition-related
information is presented below:

repurchased a total of 827,241 shares of our Common Stock at an average price of $318.24 in the first six months
of 2025, consisting of 36,466 related to tax withholding on vesting RSUs, and 790,775 related to our repurchase
authorizations. As of June 30, 2025, we had $568.8 million remaining available for repurchases and the

facility, and a $500 million CAD wholesale floorplan commitment as part of our Bank of Nova Scotia syndicated credit facility.
2The amount available on these credit facilities are limited based on borrowing base calculations and fluctuates monthly.
3Available credit is based on the borrowing base amount effective as of May 31, 2025. This amount is reduced by $25.0
million for outstanding letters of credit.
4Debt issuance costs are presented on the balance sheet as a reduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability.
Financial Covenants
Our credit facilities, non-recourse notes payable, and senior notes contain customary representations and
warranties, conditions and covenants for transactions of these types.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
See Note 15 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements for discussion.
 
Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates
There have been no material changes in the critical accounting policies and use of estimates described in our 2024
Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 24, 2025.
Seasonality and Quarterly Fluctuations
Our North American operations generally experience lower volumes in the first quarter of each year due to
consumer purchasing patterns and inclement weather in certain of our markets. As a result, financial performance is
expected to be lower during the first quarter than during the second, third and fourth quarters of each fiscal year.
Our U.K. operations generally experience higher volumes in the first and third quarters of each year, due primarily to
new vehicle registration practices in the United Kingdom. We believe that interest rates, levels of consumer debt,
consumer confidence and manufacturer sales incentives, as well as general economic conditions, also contribute to
fluctuations in sales and operating results.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a material current or
future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations,
liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
 
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
 
There have been no material changes in our reported market risks or risk management policies since the filing of
our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on February 24, 2025.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We evaluated, with the participation and under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief
Financial Officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by
this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial
Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information we are
required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and
communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as
appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and that such information is recorded,
processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms.
 
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recent fiscal
quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
 
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are party to numerous legal proceedings arising in the normal course of our business. Although we do not
anticipate that the resolution of legal proceedings arising in the normal course of business will have a material
adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows, we cannot predict this with
certainty.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
The information in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the risk factors and information disclosed in
our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on February 24, 2025. We have described in
