Strategy and Business Highlights
“Our more than 11 million Customers in 10.8 million households are at the center of our efforts. By providing an increasingly comprehensive, convenient, and transparent experience, we are expanding our substantial product offerings and increasing our exposure to more recurring revenue streams. During the quarter we expanded our franchise dealership network, extended our AutoNation USA footprint, increased the penetration of AutoNation Finance and began to integrate RepairSmith into the AutoNation ecosystem. These initiatives coupled with our focus on our core operations, expense management and disciplined capital allocation, position AutoNation for long-term sustained profitability and shareholder value creation,” added Manley.
Consumer demand for personal vehicle ownership remains strong, and AutoNation is meeting this demand through its sourcing capabilities, selection of vehicles, geographic footprint, digital tools, core efficiencies, and business expansions. During the quarter, the Company added scale and scope to existing markets through the acquisition of five dealerships in Carlsbad, California and the opening of its 16th AutoNation USA store in Colorado Springs. AutoNation continues to be recognized for exceptional customer service as J.D. Power certified 143 AutoNation dealerships with the 2023 Dealer of Excellence Program, an increase from 129 stores in 2022.
In addition to operational and expansion investments of more than $180 million, AutoNation utilized its cash flow and liquidity to deploy capital to return funds to shareholders through share repurchases.

AutoNation has approximately $670 million remaining Board authorization for share repurchase.
