Commenting on the Company's first quarter financial results, Chair Roger Penske said, "Our diversified international transportation services business generated record first quarter revenue, the seventh consecutive quarter of stable gross margin, and a 70-basis point improvement of adjusted selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percentage of gross profit. New and used vehicle gross profit per unit retailed remained consistent and strong with new vehicle gross declining only $87 per unit while used vehicle gross increased $352 per unit when compared to the fourth quarter of 2024. I was also pleased to see retail automotive service and parts gross margin improve by 60 basis points when compared to the first quarter of 2024." Penske continued, "We continue to monitor the potential impact to our business from tariffs. As we look across our business, the benefits provided by our premium brand mix, geographic diversification across the North American retail commercial truck, Australian/New Zealand commercial vehicle and power systems, and the international automotive markets, and the diversification of our gross profit across new and used vehicles, service and parts, and finance and insurance, coupled with our highly variable cost structure, provide us with opportunities to flex our business to meet the changing automotive landscape."
Retail Automotive Dealerships
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, total new units delivered increased 6%. Used units delivered decreased 16%, consisting of a 2% increase in the U.S. and a 28% decrease internationally. The decrease internationally is attributable to a realignment of the Company's U.K. used only dealerships to Sytner Select which focuses on retailing fewer units at better margin and lower costs. Excluding the performance of the U.K. Sytner Select dealerships in both periods, used units delivered only decreased 1%. Total retail automotive revenue increased 1% to $6.6 billion and increased 2% on a same-store basis, driven by a 4% increase in same-store service and parts. Total retail automotive gross profit increased 3% to $1.1 billion, and same-store gross profit increased 3%, driven by a 6% increase in same-store service and parts.
Retail Commercial Truck Dealerships
As of March 31, 2025, Premier Truck Group operated 45 North American retail commercial truck locations. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, retail unit sales increased 4% to 4,714 from 4,540 but declined 4% on a same-store basis. Revenue was $823.7 million and earnings before taxes was $45.1 million which compares to revenue of $791.8 million and earnings before taxes of $50.5 million in the prior year period. The decline in earnings is attributable to the continuing soft freight environment.
Penske Transportation Solutions Investment
Penske Transportation Solutions ("PTS") is a leading provider of full-service truck leasing, truck rental, contract maintenance, and logistics services. PTS operates a managed fleet with over 428,000 trucks, tractors, and trailers under lease, rental and/or maintenance contracts. Penske Automotive Group has a 28.9% ownership interest in PTS and accounts for its ownership interest using the equity method of accounting. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company recorded $33.2 million in earnings compared to $32.5 million for the same period in 2024, driven by an increase in revenue from leasing and maintenance business, partially offset by the continued decline in truck rental revenue and lower gain on sale of used trucks associated with weakness in the freight market.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company repurchased 254,406 shares of common stock for approximately $39.9 million under our securities repurchase program and also acquired 822 shares of our common stock for $0.1 million from employees in connection with a net share settlement feature of employee equity awards.
