Penske Automotive Reports Third Quarter 2019 Results

BLOOMFIELD HILLS, Mich., Oct. 29, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Penske Automotive Group, Inc. PAG, a diversified international transportation services company, today announced third quarter and nine months 2019 results. For the three months ended September 30, 2019, the company reported income from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders of $116.1 million, or $1.42 per share, compared to $130.1 million, or $1.53 per share in the prior year. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, income and earnings per share from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders included a tax benefit of $11.6 million, or $0.14 per share, related to the final reconciliation of the income tax benefit of the 2017 U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Excluding this benefit, adjusted income from continuing operations was $118.5 million, and related earnings per share was $1.40 in the third quarter last year. 

The shift in mix of the Company's earnings to be more heavily weighted towards the U.S. increased the effective tax rate to 26.8% in the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to 17.3% in the same period last year. Excluding the $11.6 million tax benefit noted above, the Company's prior period comparable adjusted effective tax rate was 24.6%. Additionally, foreign exchange rates negatively impacted earnings per share attributable to common shareholders by $0.01. Weak market conditions in the U.K., largely as the result of Brexit, impacted third quarter 2019 results as the over-supply of vehicles in the market impacted new and used vehicle gross profit and margins. As a result, the company estimates its third quarter results were negatively impacted by approximately $0.26 per share.

"Our business produced another quarter of record revenue," said Penske Automotive Group Chair and CEO Roger Penske. "I am particularly pleased with the 30-basis points improvement in selling, general and administrative expense as a percentage of gross profit we achieved during the quarter, coupled with the strength in the performance of our U.S. retail automotive businesses, including finance and insurance gross profit, and the North American commercial truck dealership business. Despite the challenges from the U.K., I am very pleased with the performance of our business in the third quarter which demonstrates the positive impact from the Warner Truck Group acquisition and share repurchases."

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the company reported income from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders of $333.9 million, or $4.02 per share, compared to $372.7 million, or $4.37 per share in the prior year. Foreign exchange rates negatively impacted earnings per share attributable to common shareholders by $0.08. Excluding the tax benefit of $11.6 million noted above, adjusted income from continuing operations was $361.1 million and related adjusted earnings per share were $4.23 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Used Vehicle Supercenter Operations

For the three months ended September 30, 2019, our used vehicle supercenters increased units retailed by 6.2% to 19,728 and generated $327.6 million in revenue. Total gross profit per unit retailed declined 14.0%, or $286, representing an increase of 4.2%, or $120 per unit in the U.S., offset by a decline of 21.1%, or $388 per unit in the U.K. The decline in used vehicle gross profit in the U.K was largely associated with an oversupply of vehicles in the market and a decline in used vehicle market values. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the used vehicle supercenters retailed 55,543 used units representing a decline of 0.9% and generated $954.0 million in revenue. Additionally, in the third quarter of 2019, we opened a new CarSense used vehicle supercenter in Glen Mills, Pennsylvania, increasing our used vehicle supercenter location total to fifteen (15).

Retail Commercial Truck Operations

During the third quarter of 2019, the company became the largest dealership group for Freightliner in North America with the acquisition of Warner Truck Centers, representing six dealership locations in Utah and Idaho, bringing our total commercial vehicle dealership count to twenty-five (25). For the three months ended September 30, 2019, total medium and heavy-duty units retailed increased 57.2%, and revenue increased 79.7% to $692.3 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, total medium and heavy-duty truck units retailed increased 32.8% and revenue increased 42.8% to $1.5 billion. Same-store revenue increased 4.0% and 14.1% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively.

The company accounts for its ownership interest in PTL using the equity method of accounting.

Caution Concerning Forward Looking Statements

Statements in this press release may involve forward-looking statements, including forward-looking statements regarding Penske Automotive Group, Inc.'s product availability, future sales and earnings potential.

These forward-looking statements should be evaluated together with additional information about Penske Automotive Group's business, markets, conditions and other uncertainties, which could affect Penske Automotive Group's future performance.
