ATLANTA, GA. (April 28, 2026) — Asbury Automotive Group, Inc. (NYSE: ABG) (the “Company”), one of the largest automotive retail and service companies in the U.S., reported first quarter 2026 net income of $188 million ($9.87 per diluted share), an increase of 42% from $132 million ($6.71 per diluted share) in first quarter 2025. The Company reported first quarter 2026 adjusted net income, a non-GAAP measure, of $102 million ($5.37 per diluted share), a decrease of 24% from $134 million ($6.82 per diluted share) in first quarter 2025. The Company also divested ten dealerships and terminated seven franchises during the first quarter 2026 as part of ongoing capital allocation and portfolio optimization efforts. The thirteen stores contributed an estimated annualized revenue of $625 million. The net proceeds from the ten divested stores were approximately $210 million.
“We are making great strides towards meeting our strategic objectives, including the rollout of Tekion across our stores,” said David Hult, Asbury’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “We continued to be disciplined within our capital allocation framework during the quarter. We took opportunities to optimize our portfolio at attractive multiples, utilizing the proceeds to both reduce our debt and return capital to our shareholders. While adverse weather and the expected learning curve associated with the adoption and integration of the new DMS occurred in the quarter, we believe the foundational investments we've made position us to drive meaningful efficiency gains and improved performance as we progress through the year.”
The financial measures discussed below include both GAAP and adjusted (non-GAAP) financial measures. Please see “Non-GAAP Financial Disclosure and Reconciliation, Same Store Data and Other Data” and the reconciliations for non-GAAP metrics used herein.
