Business Overview In 2025, our business generated $31.8 billion in total revenue, which is comprised of approximately $27.5 billion from retail automotive dealerships, $3.4 billion from retail commercial truck dealerships, and $922.6 million from commercial vehicle distribution and other operations. We generated $5.2 billion in gross profit, which is comprised of $4.5 billion from retail automotive dealerships, $542.3 million from retail commercial truck dealerships, and $192.3 million from commercial vehicle distribution and other operations. Retail Automotive. We are one of the largest global automotive retailers as measured by the $27.5 billion in total retail automotive dealership revenue we generated in 2025. We are diversified geographically with 61% of our total retail automotive dealership revenues in 2025 generated in the U.S. and Puerto Rico and 39% generated outside of the U.S. We offer over 40 vehicle brands with 71% of our retail automotive franchised dealership revenue generated from premium brands, such as Audi, BMW, Land Rover, Lexus, Mercedes-Benz, and Porsche, and 23% of revenue generated from volume non-U.S. brands such as Toyota and Honda in 2025. As of December 31, 2025, we operated 365 retail automotive franchised dealerships, of which 148 are located in the U.S. and 217 are located outside of the U.S., principally in the U.K. As of December 31, 2025, we also operated 15 used vehicle dealerships, with six dealerships in the U.S. operating under the brand name CarShop, eight dealerships in the U.K. operating under the brand name Sytner Select, and one dealership in Australia operating under the brand name Penske Select. We retailed and wholesaled, including agency units, more than 583,000 vehicles in 2025. In addition to selling new and used vehicles, we generate higher-margin revenue at each of our dealerships through maintenance and repair services, the sale and placement of third-party finance and insurance products, third-party extended service and maintenance contracts, replacement and aftermarket automotive products, and at certain of our locations, collision repair services. We operate our franchised dealerships under franchise agreements with a number of automotive manufacturers and distributors that are subject to certain rights and restrictions typical of the industry. Some of our dealerships in the U.K. and Europe operate under an agency model where we receive a fee for facilitating the sale by the manufacturer of a new vehicle but do not hold the vehicle in inventory. Vehicles sold under this agency model are counted as new agency units sold instead of new retail units sold by us, and only the fee we receive from the manufacturer, not the price of the vehicle, is reported as new revenue with no corresponding cost of sale. During 2025, in the U.S. we sold four retail automotive franchises, closed one retail automotive franchise, and opened one retail automotive franchise. In addition, on November 19, 2025, we acquired Penske Motor Group, LLC ("PMG"), representing two Lexus brand locations and one Toyota brand location in California and one Toyota brand location in Texas, including Longo Toyota, the largest Toyota brand dealership in the U.S. This acquisition was accounted for as a transaction between entities under common control.
