Penske Automotive Reports Record Third Quarter 2018 Results

BLOOMFIELD HILLS, Mich., Oct. 25, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Penske Automotive Group, Inc. (NYSE: PAG), an international transportation services company consisting of franchised retail automotive dealerships, stand-alone used vehicle supercenters, heavy and medium duty retail truck dealerships, and distribution of commercial trucks and power systems, today announced record third quarter and record nine months 2018 results. For the three months ended September 30, 2018, income from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders increased 38.0% to $130.1 million, and related earnings per share increased 39.1% to $1.53 when compared to the same period last year. Total revenue increased 2.4% to $5.7 billion, while same-store retail revenue increased 0.2%. Excluding foreign exchange, total revenue increased 2.9%, while same-store retail revenue increased 0.5%. Foreign exchange rates negatively impacted earnings per share attributable to common shareholders by $0.01. As a result of tax reform enacted in 2017, the company's effective tax rate in the third quarter of 2018 was 17.3% compared to 32.2% in the third quarter of 2017.

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. This benefit relates to the final reconciliation of the income tax benefit related to the enactment of the 2017 U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The third quarter 2018 adjustment primarily relates to reductions in the repatriation tax. Excluding this benefit, adjusted income from continuing operations increased 25.7% to $118.5 million, and related earnings per share increased 27.3% to $1.40 for the three months ended September 30, 2018.

"I am particularly pleased to report another quarter of record revenues, income from continuing operations and earnings per share, which continue to demonstrate the benefit of our diversification," said Penske Automotive Group Chairman Roger S. Penske. "The strength of our performance in the third quarter was driven by increases in new vehicle, used vehicle and finance & insurance gross profit per retail unit sold, coupled with a 70 basis-point increase in service and parts gross margin. Further, our U.K. business produced another record quarter on the strength of its premium brand mix and stand-alone used vehicle supercenter operations. Also contributing to the company's record third quarter was the 25.4% same-store retail revenue increase in the company's North American retail commercial truck business and our investment in Penske Truck Leasing."

For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, total record revenue increased 8.5% to $17.3 billion, with a 5.0% increase in same-store retail revenue. Record income from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders increased 31.5% to $372.7 million and related earnings per share increased 32.4% to $4.37 when compared to the same period last year. Excluding foreign exchange, total revenue increased 5.8%, while same-store retail revenue increased 2.3%. Foreign exchange rates positively impacted earnings per share attributable to common shareholders by $0.08. Excluding the tax benefit noted above, record adjusted income from continuing operations increased 27.4% to $361.1 million, and related earnings per share increased 28.2% to $4.23.
