Sonic Automotive Reports Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results

Sonic Reports All-Time Record Quarterly Consolidated Revenues and Gross Profit

Sonic’s Powersports Segment Achieved All-Time Record Quarterly Revenues and Adjusted EBITDA*

CHARLOTTE, N.C.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Sonic Automotive, Inc. (“Sonic Automotive,” “Sonic,” the “Company,” “we” “us” or “our”) (NYSE:SAH), one of the nation’s largest automotive retailers, today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025.

Third Quarter 2025 Financial Summary

  • All-time record quarterly total revenues of $4.0 billion, up 14% year-over-year; all-time record quarterly total gross profit of $615.5 million, up 13%year-over-year
  • Reported net income in the third quarter was $46.8 million, down 37% year-over-year ($1.33 earnings per share, down 38% year-over-year), driven by a significant increase in medical expenses and a higher effective income tax rate in the third quarter of 2025, and the below income tax benefit in the prior year period
    • Reported net income for the third quarter of 2025 includes a $3.0 million pre-tax disposition-related loss and a $0.7 million net pre-tax charge for legal settlement reserves (collectively, these items are partially offset by a $1.0 million income tax benefit on the above net charge)
    • Reported net income for the third quarter of 2024 includes the effect of a $1.8 million pre-tax excess compensation expense related to the CDK Global software outage and a $1.5 million pre-tax charge related to storm damage, offset partially by a $2.3 million pre-tax gain related to the exit of leases and sale of real estate at previously closed EchoPark Segment stores (collectively, these items are partially offset by a $0.2 million income tax benefit on the above net charge), in addition to a $31.0 million income tax benefit in the prior year period associated with the correction of an error related to the impairment of franchise assets
  • Excluding the above items, adjusted net income* for the third quarter of 2025 was $49.5 million, up 13% year-over-year ($1.41 adjusted earnings per diluted share*, up 12% year-over-year), driven by all-time record quarterly revenues and gross profit, offset partially by a significant increase in medical expenses and a higher effective income tax rate in the third quarter of 2025
  • In the prior year, the CDK Global software outage reduced third quarter 2024 GAAP income before taxes by an estimated $17.2 million, and net income by an estimated $12.7 million, or $0.36 in earnings per diluted share.
    • Approximately $1.8 million ($0.04 in earnings per diluted share) of the pre-tax impact of the CDK outage on the third quarter of 2024 was related to excess compensation paid to our teammates as a result of the CDK outage, which is included as a reconciling item in the non-GAAP reconciliation tables below
  • Total reported selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses as a percentage of gross profit of 73.4% (73.5% on a Franchised Dealerships Segment basis, 80.0% on an EchoPark Segment basis, and 55.8% on a Powersports Segment basis)
    • Total adjusted SG&A expenses as a percentage of gross profit* of 72.8% (72.8% on a Franchised Dealerships Segment basis, 79.8% on an EchoPark Segment basis, and 55.1% on a Powersports Segment basis)
  • EchoPark Segment revenues of $522.5 million, down 4% year-over-year; EchoPark Segment total gross profit of $54.4 million, down 1% year-over-year; EchoPark Segment retail used vehicle unit sales volume of 16,353, down 8% year-over-year
  • Reported EchoPark Segment income of $2.6 million, as compared to $5.2 million in the prior year period, a 50% decrease year-over-year
    • Adjusted EchoPark Segment income* of $2.7 million, as compared to $2.9 million in the prior year period, a 7% decrease year-over-year
  • EchoPark Segment adjusted EBITDA* of $8.2 million, as compared to $8.9 million adjusted EBITDA* in the prior year period, down 8%year-over-year
  • Previously announced acquisition of Jaguar Land Rover Santa Monica on August 18, 2025 is expected to add approximately $125 million in annualized revenues to Sonic’s Franchised Dealerships Segment
  • Sonic’s Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.38 per share, payable on January 15, 2026 to all stockholders of record on December 15, 2025

Commentary

David Smith, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Sonic Automotive, stated, “I am very proud of our team’s effort in the third quarter, driving all-time record quarterly consolidated revenues and gross profit. Our team remains focused on delivering an outstanding experience for our guests and adapting our business to ongoing changes in the automotive retail environment. The acquisition of our latest Jaguar Land Rover store in Santa Monica cements Sonic as the largest Jaguar Land Rover volume retailer in the U.S. and enhances our brand portfolio in the coveted California luxury market. I’d also like to congratulate our powersports team on achieving all-time record quarterly results, driven by record sales volume at this year’s 85th Sturgis Motorcycle Rally and continued improvement as a result of our investment in modernizing our powersports inventory management and marketing processes.”

Jeff Dyke, President of Sonic Automotive, commented, “In addition to reporting all-time record quarterly revenues, our Franchised Dealerships Segment generated all-time record quarterly fixed operations gross profit and F&I gross profit, which combined to account for over 75% of our total gross profit mix. As we anticipated, our EchoPark team was challenged by vehicle gross margin headwinds in the third quarter, and we remain focused on increasing our mix of non-auction sourced inventory to lower cost of acquisition and benefit consumer affordability and retail sales volume. We continue to make great progress on our strategic investments in our Powersports Segment, evidenced by that team’s record setting quarter. While there is uncertainty around the future impact of tariffs on consumer demand, vehicle pricing, gross margins, and inventory levels, the Sonic team remains committed to executing our strategy and adapting to changes in our business.”

Heath Byrd, Chief Financial Officer of Sonic Automotive, added, “As of September 30, 2025, we had approximately $264 million in cash and floor plan deposits on hand, with total liquidity of approximately $815 million, before considering unencumbered real estate. Going forward, we remain focused on deploying capital via a diversified growth strategy across our Franchised Dealerships, EchoPark, and Powersports Segments to grow our revenue base and enhance shareholder returns.”
