Sonic Automotive Reports Q1 Revenue of $3.7B
Reports Q1 revenue $3.7B, consensus $3.73B. David Smith, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Sonic Automotive, stated, "I am grateful for our team's efforts in the first quarter, which delivered several first quarter and all-time quarterly records across our operating segments. Our Franchised Dealerships built on fourth quarter momentum to deliver record consolidated first quarter revenue, and our EchoPark team capitalized on a strong tax refund season to deliver an all-time record adjusted EBITDA of $18.6 million while continuing to provide a world-class guest experience. We are also excited to expand our Powersports segment in the great riding states of California, Florida, Georgia, and North Carolina. The acquisition of five new Harley-Davidson dealerships establishes Sonic Powersports as one of the fastest growing powersports retailers in the country and reinforces our commitment to diversifying our revenue base and enhancing shareholder returns."
