FORT
LAUDERDALE, Fla., July 31,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- AutoNation, Inc. (NYSE:
AN), today reported second quarter 2024 revenue of
$6.5 billion, EPS of $3.20, and adjusted EPS of $3.99. Results for the second quarter 2024 were
adversely impacted by the outage of AutoNation's dealer management
system due to a cyber incident experienced by CDK Global, which
reduced earnings per share by an estimated $1.55, including $0.79 of one-time costs. Reconciliations of
non-GAAP financial measures are included in the attached financial
tables.
"An otherwise strong quarter for AutoNation was masked by the
CDK outage. Margin performance in After-Sales and trends in vehicle
margins were encouraging and our cash generation continues to
support capital deployment focused on shareholder returns,
including the repurchase of more than 5% of our shares outstanding
year to date. We are encouraged by the health of the markets we
serve and look forward to delivering a strong second half," said
Mike Manley, AutoNation's Chief
Executive Officer.

Please refer to the
"Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section of the Press
Release.
|
(2)
|
Tax expense is
determined based on the amount of additional taxes or tax benefits
associated with each individual item.
|
(3)
|
Diluted earnings per
share amounts are calculated discretely and therefore may not add
up to the total due to rounding.
|
(4)
|
Increases and decreases
in deferred compensation obligations, which are recorded in
SG&A, are substantially offset by corresponding gains and
losses, respectively, related to changes in the cash surrender
value of corporate-owned life insurance ("COLI") for deferred
compensation plan participants as a result of changes in market
performance of the underlying investments; therefore, the net
impact to net income and earnings per share is de minimis. Gains
and losses related to the COLI are recorded in non-operating Other
Income (Loss), Net.
|
(5)
|
Represents certain
one-time costs incurred associated with the CDK outage, principally
consisting of compensation paid to commission-based associates to
ensure business continuity.

|
Please refer to the
"Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section of the Press
Release.
|
(2)
|
Tax expense is
determined based on the amount of additional taxes or tax benefits
associated with each individual item.
|
(3)
|
Diluted earnings per
share amounts are calculated discretely and therefore may not add
up to the total due to rounding.
|
(4)
|
Increases and decreases
in deferred compensation obligations, which are recorded in
SG&A, are substantially offset by corresponding gains and
losses, respectively, related to changes in the cash surrender
value of corporate-owned life insurance ("COLI") for deferred
compensation plan participants as a result of changes in market
performance of the underlying investments; therefore, the net
impact to net income and earnings per share is de minimis. Gains
and losses related to the COLI are recorded in non-operating Other
Income (Loss), Net.
|
(5)
|
Represents certain
one-time costs incurred associated with the CDK outage, principally
consisting of compensation paid to commission-based associates to
ensure business continuity.
