AutoNation Reports 2010 Third Quarter Results
-- 13% growth in total third quarter revenue over the prior year, driven by 15% growth in retail vehicle revenue.
-- AutoNation was awarded seven Fiat franchises and will be the biggest Fiat dealer in the U.S.
-- Third quarter EPS from continuing operations was $0.39, an 8% increase compared to $0.36 in the prior year, which included the highly successful Cash for Clunkers program that aided our prior year results by an estimated $0.07 per share.
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Oct. 28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- AutoNation, Inc. (NYSE: AN), America's largest automotive retailer, today reported 2010 third quarter net income from continuing operations of $59 million, or $0.39 per share, compared to net income from continuing operations of $64 million, or $0.36 per share, for the same period in the prior year, an 8% improvement on a per-share basis.
AutoNation's 2010 third quarter revenue totaled $3.3 billion, compared to $2.9 billion in the year-ago period, an increase of 13%, driven primarily by stronger new and used retail vehicle revenue which increased 15%. Based on CNW Research data, in the third quarter, total U.S. industry new retail vehicle unit sales decreased 4%. AutoNation's new vehicle unit sales, on a same store basis, increased 1%.
AutoNation's 2010 third quarter used retail vehicle revenue increased 31% compared to the year-ago period, as retail unit sales increased 25%. Parts and service revenue increased 6% and finance and insurance revenue increased 18% compared to the third quarter 2009.
Mike Jackson, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, "We delivered strong performance in the third quarter, which was driven by both new and used vehicle unit sales and revenue. We continue to expect full year industry new vehicle unit sales to be in the range of 11.5 million new units."
AutoNation has three operating segments: Domestic, Import, and Premium Luxury. The Domestic segment is comprised of stores that sell vehicles manufactured by General Motors, Ford, and Chrysler; the Import segment is comprised of stores that sell vehicles manufactured primarily by Toyota, Honda, and Nissan; and the Premium Luxury segment is comprised of stores that sell vehicles manufactured primarily by Mercedes, BMW, and Lexus. Segment results for the third quarter were as follows:
- Domestic - Domestic segment income (1) was $43 million compared to year-ago segment income of $33 million. Third quarter Domestic retail new vehicle unit sales increased 15%. We had a solid performance from our domestic stores, especially Ford and Chevrolet.
- Import - Import segment income was $51 million compared to year-ago segment income of $63 million. Third quarter Import retail new vehicle unit sales decreased 3%.
- Premium Luxury - Premium Luxury segment income was $48 million compared to year-ago segment income of $44 million. Third quarter Premium Luxury retail new vehicle unit sales increased 3%.
(1) Segment income is defined as operating income less floorplan interest expense. |
