Q1 same-store units sold increased 16.3% and same-store revenue rose 13.1%, marking the fourth consecutive quarter of same-store gross profit growth. — Strong double-digit organic growth demonstrates robust underlying consumer demand and operational execution, serving as a key positive signal for forward revenue.
+0.55New and pre-owned vehicle gross margins improved year-over-year to 14.2% and 16.9% respectively, while F&I gross profit per unit declined from $1,713 to $1,571. — Margin expansion in core vehicle sales is positive, but it is partially offset by deteriorating per-unit profitability in the high-margin finance and insurance segment.
