**AutoNation Reports First Quarter 2026 Results**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Q1 2026 EPS $5.85 and Adjusted EPS $4.69

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Record Q1 After-Sales gross profit; total store growth of 5%

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Record Q1 CFS gross profit per unit

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Substantial portfolio and profitability growth at AN Finance

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Sequential improvements in new and used vehicle unit profitability

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Share repurchases of $300 million in Q1 (4% share count reduction)

**FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., (May 1, 2026) — AutoNation, Inc. (NYSE: AN)** today reported first quarter 2026 revenue of $6.6 billion, a decrease of 2% compared to the same period a year ago. For the quarter, EPS was $5.85, compared to $4.45 a year ago, and Adjusted EPS was $4.69, compared to $4.68 a year ago. Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures are included in the attached financial tables.

"We are pleased to report our strong first quarter results highlighted by record gross profit in After-Sales and record unit profitability in Customer Financial Services. Unit profitability for new and used vehicles increased sequentially. These gains largely offset expected year-over-year declines in unit sales," said Mike Manley, Chief Executive Officer of AutoNation. "Adjusted earnings per share increased year-over-year for the fifth consecutive quarter, and strong cash flow conversion supported our continued deployment of capital toward share repurchases. AutoNation Finance continued to scale, growing its portfolio to $2.4 billion while improving profitability, credit performance, and debt funding. Our diversified earnings profile, flexible cost structure, and strong balance sheet and cash flows continue to support resilient performance and disciplined capital deployment to generate shareholder returns in a dynamic operating environment," Manley concluded.

For the quarter, cash used in operating activities was $22 million, auto loans receivable, net, increased $254 million, capital expenditures were $56 million, and adjusted free cash flow was $256 million, or 155% of adjusted net income.

During the quarter, AutoNation repurchased 1.5 million shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $300 million, or $201 per share. Year-to-date through April 29, 2026, AutoNation repurchased 1.9 million shares, for an aggregate purchase price of $391 million, or $201 per share, and has more than $685 million of repurchase authorization remaining under its current share repurchase program.

As of March 31, 2026, AutoNation had $1.6 billion of liquidity, including $66 million in cash and $1.6 billion of availability under its revolving credit facility, net of commercial paper borrowings. The Company's covenant leverage ratio was 2.57x at quarter end and the Company had $4.1 billion of non-vehicle debt outstanding.

In January 2026, AN Finance completed its second asset-backed term securitization, generating $749.2 million in funding for its auto loan portfolio at a weighted-average fixed interest rate of 4.25%. The strong advance rates of this ABS transaction helped improve the debt funded status of the $2.4 billion portfolio to 90 percent.
