FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., (February 6, 2026) —AutoNation, Inc. (NYSE: AN) today reported fourth quarter 2025 revenue of $6.9 billion, a decrease of 4% compared to the same period a year ago. Fourth quarter 2025 EPS was $4.70, compared to $4.64 a year ago, and fourth quarter Adjusted EPS was $5.08, compared to $4.97 a year ago. Full year 2025 revenue of $27.6 billion increased 3% from the same period a year ago. Full year 2025 EPS was $17.04 compared to $16.92 a year ago, and full year Adjusted EPS was $20.22, compared to $17.46 a year ago.

AutoNation Finance continued to scale, growing the portfolio to $2.2 billion while improving profitability and funded status.

Total revenue decreased by 5% for the fourth quarter 2025 on a same store basis compared to the same period a year ago. The decrease reflects lower unit sales of both new and used vehicles, offset partially by an increase in After-Sales revenue. Unit volumes for new vehicles faced strong comparisons from the fourth quarter 2024 and were also impacted by elevated sales earlier in 2025 related to tariffs and the expiration of government incentives on battery electric vehicles. Same store gross profit decreased by 4% for the fourth quarter 2025 as lower vehicle unit sales and profit per unit were partially offset by an increase in After-Sales gross profit.

Capital Allocation, Liquidity, and Leverage
For the full year 2025, adjusted free cash flow was $1.05 billion, or 125% of adjusted net income.
In December 2025, AutoNation acquired a Toyota store in Baltimore. This follows the acquisition of an Audi and a Mercedes-Benz store in Chicago, as well as a Mazda and a Ford store in Denver earlier this year. In total these combined acquisitions represent more than $650 million of annual revenues, enhance our brand portfolio, and add density to our existing footprint in Maryland, Illinois, and Colorado.



During the quarter, AutoNation repurchased 1.7 million shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $350 million or $209 per share. For the full year 2025, AutoNation repurchased 4.1 million shares for an aggregate purchase price of $785 million, or $193 per share.
Year-to-date through February 4, 2026, AutoNation repurchased 0.5 million shares, for an aggregate purchase price of $108 million or $212 per share and has $968 million of repurchase authorization remaining under its current share repurchase program.
As of December 31, 2025, AutoNation had $1.8 billion of liquidity, including $59 million in cash and $1.7 billion of availability under its revolving credit facility, net of commercial paper borrowings. The Company’s covenant leverage ratio was 2.44x at quarter-end and the Company had $4.0 billion of non-vehicle debt outstanding.
In January 2026, AN Finance completed its second asset-backed term securitization, generating $749.2 million in funding for our auto loan portfolio at a weighted-average fixed interest rate of 4.25%.
