Group 1 Automotive reported Q3 2025 earnings, with GAAP net income from continuing operations of $13.1 million and diluted earnings per share of $1.02. Adjusted net income was $135.1 million and adjusted diluted EPS $10.45.
The company posted record quarterly revenue of $5.8 billion, up from $5.5 billion in the same period last year. Revenue beat analyst expectations.
The GAAP figures were impacted by a $123.9 million non‑cash impairment charge related to goodwill, franchise rights, and fixed assets in the U.K. reporting unit. Adjusted earnings exclude this charge and show a 5.6% year‑over‑year increase in diluted EPS.
The adjusted EPS of $10.45 missed consensus estimates of $10.64 from Zacks and $10.81 from InvestingPro, while revenue exceeded expectations.
Group 1 Automotive operates 259 dealerships in the United States and United Kingdom, 324 franchises, and 35 collision centers. Total liquidity stood at $989 million as of September 30, 2025.
The company continued to refine its portfolio, adding a Mercedes‑Benz dealership in Georgia during the quarter and selling other assets to support its U.K. restructuring.
U.S. operations showed strong performance across new vehicle sales, used vehicle sales, parts and service, and finance and insurance, while the U.K. market faced softer volumes and margin pressure from battery electric vehicles.
The company’s management emphasized ongoing efforts to optimize margins and support long‑term growth.
