Commentary
David Smith, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Sonic Automotive, stated, "I'm pleased to report that we continued to build momentum in our EchoPark Segment in the third quarter, generating all-time record quarterly gross profit, segment income, and adjusted EBITDA* as a result of the dedicated efforts of our team and the improving conditions in the used vehicle retail environment. Overall, the Sonic Automotive team continued to execute at a high level, despite operational disruptions throughout July related to the functionality of certain CDK customer lead applications, inventory management applications and related third-party application integrations with CDK, which negatively impacted our Franchised Dealerships Segment results in the third quarter. With this disruption behind us, we remain confident that our team, our brand portfolio, and our long-term strategy will continue to benefit our diversified business and generate long-term value for our stakeholders."
Jeff Dyke, President of Sonic Automotive, commented, "I'm very proud of our team's performance in the third quarter, which not only drove record segment income in our EchoPark Segment, but also showcased our franchised dealership team's resilience in managing through operational disruptions from the CDK outage, manufacturer stop-sale orders on certain makes and models, and continued normalization of new vehicle margins. Additionally, the successful execution of another Sturgis rally by our Powersports team underscores our commitment to maintaining diverse revenue streams. Our entire company remains dedicated to delivering an outstanding guest experience and executing our long-term strategic vision. We believe that by fostering a culture of excellence and innovation, we will continue to enhance guest satisfaction and operational efficiency as we navigate the evolving automotive retail landscape."
Heath Byrd, Chief Financial Officer of Sonic Automotive, added, "Our diversified cash flow streams continued to benefit our overall financial position in the third quarter, despite operational disruption from the CDK outage. As of September 30, 2024, we had approximately $418 million in cash and floor plan deposits on hand, and approximately $834 million of total liquidity, before considering unencumbered real estate. We continue to maintain a conservative balance sheet approach, with the ability to deploy capital strategically as market conditions evolve."
