New paragraph in MD&A.

Electric Vehicle Regulation. Federal and state governments and regulators in our markets have placed various restrictions on new retail automotive and commercial vehicles, in many cases requiring vehicle manufacturers to achieve progressively higher penetration of EVs or lower emissions of new internal combustion engine vehicle sales. See below for further discussion. The U.S. has recently reduced its regulations and various manufacturers have begun to produce or have announced plans to produce more vehicles with internal combustion engines. The U.K. government, however, continues to propose a ban on the sale of internal combustion engines in new cars and new vans beginning in 2030, with some moderation to allow hybrid cars to be sold until 2035 and limited exceptions to the ZEV mandate for certain lower volume manufacturers. These U.K. regulations continue to effect the profitability and mix of vehicles sold by our U.K. dealerships. For an additional discussion of certain risks associated with our business related to the environmental regulations, see Item 1A. Risk Factors, "Vehicle Emissions and Other Environmental Regulations" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.On September 1, 2025, we became aware that Jaguar Land Rover ("JLR") experienced a significant cybersecurity…

On September 1, 2025, we became aware that Jaguar Land Rover ("JLR") experienced a significant cybersecurity incident that disrupted its global manufacturing and information technology systems. In connection with the incident,JLR's production facilities were shut down, and JLR proactively suspended key IT systems, rendering our…

JLR's production facilities were shut down, and JLR proactively suspended key IT systems, rendering our dealerships in the U.S. and U.K. temporarily unable to, among other things, sell vehicles, order parts, and process or provide warranty service. While manual processes were created and implemented to support daily dealership operations, several key systems remain impacted. JLR restarted vehicle production in a phased manner on October 8th, although a return to full production capacity is not expected until later in the fourth quarter, and we expect fewer deliveries of vehicles from JLR for the remainder of the year. The cybersecurity incident is not known to have resulted in any unauthorized access to our information systems, although JLR announced that it identified the compromise of certain data during its forensic investigation, without providing additional information as to the nature or scope of such compromised data. While our affected dealerships promptly implemented manual or alternative processes to mitigate, where possible, operational losses resulting from the incident, we believe the JLR cybersecurity incident, including our inability to secure new vehicle inventory from JLR, decreased our net income in the third quarter by approximately $2.5 million.We rely on our manufacturer partners and third-party suppliers to produce and supply vehicles and parts.
New paragraph in MD&A.
From the filings
Now
We rely on our manufacturer partners and third-party suppliers to produce and supply vehicles and parts. Any interruption in supply, such as that caused by the JLR cybersecurity incident, may adversely affect us. In October 2025, the Dutch government invoked emergency powers to seize control of Nexperia, a subsidiary of a Chinese company and an important supplier of basic chips used in vehicles, prompting the Chinese government to ban exports of the company's finished products. The Alliance for Automotive Innovation reported that OEMs could experience significant production delays if Nexperia does not resume shipments. Should this situation not be resolved, we could experience delays in acquiring vehicles or parts or experience other events which could materially and adversely affect us.On September 16, 2025, a fire at a major U.S. aluminum production facility caused significant damage and is…
New paragraph in MD&A.
From the filings
Now
On September 16, 2025, a fire at a major U.S. aluminum production facility caused significant damage and is expected to keep the plant offline until early 2026. The facility supplies several OEMs, and the disruption is anticipated to affect the production of certain aluminum-intensive vehicle models. Certain OEMs have indicated they are working with alternative aluminum suppliers to mitigate the impact of the fire. In response to these supply constraints, Ford temporarily suspended production of certain SUV models and additional impacts to truck production may occur if aluminum shortages persist. While the ultimate impact on our new vehicle supply remains uncertain, these disruptions could result in reduced vehicle availability, which could materially and adversely affect us.Three Months Ended September 30, 2025, Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2024

We had net cash provided by operating activities of $851.9 million and $962.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease of $110.2 million was primarily due to the timing of working capital related payments, including accounts receivable, inventory, and floor plan notes payable. Excluding non-cash items, these impacts were offset by an increase in earnings as discussed above under "Results of Operations."

On April 29, 2025, we entered into the Twelfth Amendment (the "Amendment") to Our U.S. credit agreement with Mercedes-Benz Financial Services USA LLC, Toyota Motor Credit Corporation, and Daimler Truck Financial Services USA LLC (as amended, the "U.S. credit agreement") principally to lower the applicable interest rate on revolving loans exceeding a defined borrowing base. As amended, the U.S. credit agreement provides for up to $ 1.5 billion in revolving loans for working capital, acquisitions, capital expenditures, investments, and other general corporate purposes and provides up to an additional $ 75 million of letters of credit. The U.S. credit agreement provides for a maximum of $ 400 million of borrowings for foreign acquisitions and expires on September 30, 2027. 2028.
The interest rate on outstanding borrowings is based on an adjusted Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus 1.50 %, with uncollateralized borrowings in excess of a defined borrowing base bearing interest at adjusted SOFR plus a margin ranging from 1.50 % to 2.00 %, based on a ratio of consolidated non-vehicle debt to adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. The previous interest rate for uncollateralized borrowings in excess of the defined borrowing base was adjusted SOFR plus 2.00 %.
1 unchanged paragraph
The U.S. credit agreement also contains typical events of default, including upon a change of control, non-payment of our obligations, and cross-defaults to our other material indebtedness. Substantially all of our U.S. assets are subject to security interests granted to the lenders under the U.S. credit agreement. As of June September 30, 2025, we had no revolver borrowings under the U.S. credit agreement.
1 unchanged paragraph
Our U.K. credit agreement with National Westminster Bank Plc and BMW Financial Services (GB) Limited provides up to a £ 200.0 million revolving line of credit to be used for working capital, acquisitions, capital expenditures, investments, and general corporate purposes. The revolving loans bear interest between defined Sterling Overnight Index Average ("SONIA") plus 1.10 % and defined SONIA plus 2.10 %. In addition, the U.K. credit agreement includes a £ 100.0 million "accordion" feature which allows the U.K. subsidiaries to request up to an additional £ 100.0 million of facility capacity, subject to certain limitations. The lenders may agree to provide additional capacity, and, if not, the U.K. subsidiaries may add an additional lender, if available, to the facility to provide such additional capacity.

Tariffs. On March 26, 2025, U.S. President Trump announced the imposition of a 25% tariff on imports of automobiles and certain automobile parts (the "Automotive Tariffs"). These tariffs, which became effective on April 3, 2025, apply to imported fully-assembled passenger vehicles including sedans, SUVs, crossovers, minivans, and cargo vans as well as light trucks, and also apply to certain imported automotive parts. The situation regarding tariffs remains fluid.
In addition to the Automotive Tariffs, on April 2, 2025, U.S. President Trump announced a baseline tariff of 10% applied to imports from most countries, with limited country and product exceptions, and elevated tariff rates imposed on many specific countries (the "Reciprocal Tariffs"), although the implementation date of the Reciprocal Tariffs for countries not having reached new trade agreements with the U.S. has been extended until August 1, 2025. The vehicles and parts subject to the Automotive Tariffs are not subject to the Reciprocal Tariffs, although on April 29, 2025, U.S. President Trump announced further actions to reduce the compounding effects of other tariffs on vehicles and parts subject to the Automotive Tariffs and provide a partial reimbursement for tariffs imposed on foreign parts included in certain domestically assembled vehicles.
In response to these and other recently announced tariffs, certain key trading partners of the U.S. have negotiated new trade agreements with the United States to reduce the impact of tariffs, while trade discussions with other key partners remain ongoing. Despite new publicly announced trade agreements and ongoing bilateral discussions with key trading partners, the nature and scope of any new trade agreements remains uncertain.
It is difficult to assess the impact of tariffs and non-tariff trade barriers on our business and results of operations, particularly as the situation regarding tariffs and changes to trade policy remains fluid and our manufacturer partners have taken varying approaches in response. If sustained in their current or similar forms, tariffs are expected to broadly impact the automotive industry and supply chain and will affect a substantial portion of the retail automotive and commercial truck vehicles and parts we sell. The Automotive Tariffs and other tariffs have increased, or are likely to increase, the cost of acquiring vehicles and parts, as well as our inventory carrying costs going forward, which may alter the future mix and demand for certain vehicles produced by our manufacturer partners. Further, tariffs affecting new vehicles may potentially increase demand for used vehicles and our service and parts operations. While not subject to the Automotive Tariffs, the new trucks sold by Premier Truck Group ("PTG") are subject to the Reciprocal Tariffs and other tariffs which have been or may be announced and may have similar effects on the retail truck industry. We continue to monitor the impact of tariffs on our business and results of operations. For an additional discussion of certain risks associated Tariffs, see Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors, "Tariffs and Trade Risk" in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2025.
Electric Vehicle Regulation. Federal and state governments and regulators in our markets have placed various restrictions on new retail automotive and commercial vehicles in an effort to combat perceived negative environmental effects, in many cases requiring vehicle manufacturers to achieve progressively lower emissions for new vehicles. For example, in 2023 and 2024, the Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") allowed the State of California Air Resource Board ("CARB") to adopt several environmental regulations exceeding various federal standards, including (i) the Advanced Clean Cars II ("ACCII") program to rapidly accelerate the transition to Zero Emissions Vehicles (ZEVs) with 100% ZEV adoption required by model year 2035 (with certain allowances for hybrid gas/EVs), (ii) the Omnibus Low NOx program (the "Omnibus Rule") to reduce nitrogen oxides (NOx) emissions from heavy-duty vehicles and (iii) the Advanced Clean Trucks rule ("ACT") to phase out the sale of medium and heavy-duty gas-powered commercial vehicles over time by requiring a certain percentage of each manufacturer's commercial vehicles sold within the state to be ZEVs. Certain states subsequently adopted California's mandates, in whole or in part.
However, a renewed scrutiny by the U.S. executive branch, certain administrative agencies, and the U.S. Congress, as well as various international regulatory agencies, has cast uncertainty over the timelines and ultimate implementation of various environmental regulations and electrification mandates and in some cases, has resulted in their modification or repeal. In June 2025, three Congressional Review Act resolutions blocked the implementation of California's vehicle emissions mandates including ACCII, the Omnibus Rule, and ACT, with the practical effect of repealing California's electric vehicle mandates and those of other states adopting California's rules. Although California and ten other states have filed litigation challenging the procedural process undertaken by the U.S. Congress to repeal these mandates, the timing and outcome of such litigation is uncertain.
Further, the EPA has recently stated it would reconsider the agency's 2024 rules that would require a reduction in passenger vehicle fleetwide tailpipe emissions by nearly 50% by 2032 compared with 2027 projected levels, as well as the agency's "Clean Trucks Plan" regulation adopted in 2022, which aims to significantly reduce certain smog- and soot-forming emissions from heavy-duty vehicles beginning in model year 2027. It is uncertain whether these rules will be further revoked or modified.
In addition, although representatives of the U.K. government have proposed a ban on the sale of internal combustion engines in new cars and new vans beginning in 2030, the phase out has been recently moderated to allow hybrid cars to be sold until 2035, with limited exceptions to the ZEV mandate for certain lower volume manufacturers. The status of, and any impact to our business from, these executive, legislative, and regulatory efforts remains uncertain.
Tariffs. In addition to previously announced tariffs imposed on automobiles and certain automobile parts (the "Automotive Tariffs"), U.S. President Trump recently announced the imposition of a 25% tariff on medium- and heavy-duty trucks and truck parts (the "Truck Tariffs"), scheduled to be effective on November 1, 2025. In their current form, the Truck Tariffs are expected to impact various commercial vehicles sold by our Premier Truck Group ("PTG") business and trucks used in the operations of Penske Transportation Solutions ("PTS"). The policies and announcements regarding tariffs, including the Automotive Tariffs and Truck Tariffs, remain fluid, and we continue to monitor the impact of tariffs on our business and results of operations. For an additional discussion of certain risks associated Tariffs, see Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors, "Tariffs and Trade Risk" in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2025 and Item 1A. "Risk Factors" in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Electric Vehicle Regulation. Federal and state governments and regulators in our markets have placed various restrictions on new retail automotive and commercial vehicles, in many cases requiring vehicle manufacturers to achieve progressively higher penetration of EVs or lower emissions of new internal combustion engine vehicle sales. See below for further discussion. The U.S. has recently reduced its regulations and various manufacturers have begun to produce or have announced plans to produce more vehicles with internal combustion engines. The U.K. government, however, continues to propose a ban on the sale of internal combustion engines in new cars and new vans beginning in 2030, with some moderation to allow hybrid cars to be sold until 2035 and limited exceptions to the ZEV mandate for certain lower volume manufacturers. These U.K. regulations continue to effect the profitability and mix of vehicles sold by our U.K. dealerships. For an additional discussion of certain risks associated with our business related to the environmental regulations, see Item 1A. Risk Factors, "Vehicle Emissions and Other Environmental Regulations" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
On September 1, 2025, we became aware that Jaguar Land Rover ("JLR") experienced a significant cybersecurity incident that disrupted its global manufacturing and information technology systems. In connection with the incident,
JLR's production facilities were shut down, and JLR proactively suspended key IT systems, rendering our dealerships in the U.S. and U.K. temporarily unable to, among other things, sell vehicles, order parts, and process or provide warranty service. While manual processes were created and implemented to support daily dealership operations, several key systems remain impacted. JLR restarted vehicle production in a phased manner on October 8th, although a return to full production capacity is not expected until later in the fourth quarter, and we expect fewer deliveries of vehicles from JLR for the remainder of the year. The cybersecurity incident is not known to have resulted in any unauthorized access to our information systems, although JLR announced that it identified the compromise of certain data during its forensic investigation, without providing additional information as to the nature or scope of such compromised data. While our affected dealerships promptly implemented manual or alternative processes to mitigate, where possible, operational losses resulting from the incident, we believe the JLR cybersecurity incident, including our inability to secure new vehicle inventory from JLR, decreased our net income in the third quarter by approximately $2.5 million.
We rely on our manufacturer partners and third-party suppliers to produce and supply vehicles and parts. Any interruption in supply, such as that caused by the JLR cybersecurity incident, may adversely affect us. In October 2025, the Dutch government invoked emergency powers to seize control of Nexperia, a subsidiary of a Chinese company and an important supplier of basic chips used in vehicles, prompting the Chinese government to ban exports of the company's finished products. The Alliance for Automotive Innovation reported that OEMs could experience significant production delays if Nexperia does not resume shipments. Should this situation not be resolved, we could experience delays in acquiring vehicles or parts or experience other events which could materially and adversely affect us.
On September 16, 2025, a fire at a major U.S. aluminum production facility caused significant damage and is expected to keep the plant offline until early 2026. The facility supplies several OEMs, and the disruption is anticipated to affect the production of certain aluminum-intensive vehicle models. Certain OEMs have indicated they are working with alternative aluminum suppliers to mitigate the impact of the fire. In response to these supply constraints, Ford temporarily suspended production of certain SUV models and additional impacts to truck production may occur if aluminum shortages persist. While the ultimate impact on our new vehicle supply remains uncertain, these disruptions could result in reduced vehicle availability, which could materially and adversely affect us.
On July 4, 2025, H.R. 1, commonly referred to as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act ("OBBBA"), was signed into law. The bill provides consumers with a tax deduction for the interest on loans for certain U.S.-assembled vehicles and eliminates federal Electric Vehicle ("EV") tax credits for vehicles purchased or leased after September 30, 2025. The OBBBA also reinstates 100% bonus depreciation for qualified property placed in service after January 19, 2025. This provision allows for immediate expensing for income tax purposes of the full cost of eligible tangible assets, including certain machinery, equipment and building improvements, which will benefit the tax treatment of PTS vehicle purchases. Further, the OBBBA has effectively eliminated fines for automotive manufacturers who fail to meet federal fuel efficiency standards for vehicles dating back to model year 2022, which is expected to result in significant savings for vehicle manufacturers. While we are currently evaluating expect lower U.S. EV new vehicle sales as a result of the elimination of the EV tax credit, we continue to evaluate the impact of the OBBBA on our consolidated financial statements and the cash flow implications. For an additional discussion of certain risks associated with our business related to the environmental regulations, see Item 1A. Risk Factors, "Vehicle Emissions and Other Environmental Regulations" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Retail Automotive. During the six nine months ended June September 30, 2025, U.S. industry new light vehicle sales increased 3.2%, 4.3%, to 8.1 12.3 million units, including a 5.1% 5.0% increase in retail sales partially offset by and a 2.1% decrease 3.1% increase in fleet sales, as compared to the same period last year. In the U.S., we believe new vehicle sales were positively impacted by continued strong consumer demand in the U.S., particularly in April and May the expiration of the electric vehicle tax credit at the end of September 2025. in response to tariff announcements. Although U.K. new vehicle registrations increased 3.5% 4.2% to 1.0 1.6 million registrations, including a 2.8% 3.8% increase in fleet sales and a 5.0% 4.8% increase in retail sales, as compared to the same period last year, the sale of new premium brand vehicles across the U.K., representing a significant portion of our U.K. portfolio, decreased 6.8% 5.6% over such period. New vehicle sales were positively impacted by continued strong consumer demand We believe the decline in premium-branded vehicles is driven by macroeconomic pressures from inflation, as well as higher business taxes, labor costs, and the U.S. JLR cybersecurity incident discussed above. Our new vehicle days' supply is 57 51 as of June September 30, 2025, compared to 49 as of December 31, 2024. Our used vehicle days' supply is 44 43 as of June September 30, 2025, compared to 47 as of December 31, 2024. We continue to expect lower EV sales in the U.S. due to the elimination of EV tax credits and strong demand for our service and parts operations driven by increased vehicle sales in recent years, increased average age of vehicles, recall campaigns, increased miles driven, and vehicle complexity.
Retail Commercial Truck Dealership. During the six nine months ended June September 30, 2025, North American sales of Class 6-8 medium- and heavy-duty trucks, the vehicles sold by our PTG business, decreased 6.9% 11.4% from the same period last year to 208,600 309,294 units. The Class 6-7 medium-duty truck market increased 0.8% decreased 4.6% from the same period last year to 73,613 109,971 units, and Class 8 heavy-duty trucks, the largest North American market, decreased 10.6% 14.7% from the same period last year to 134,987 199,323 units. We believe the decline in sales is due to the prolonged recessionary freight rate environment. As discussed above, the certain new trucks sold by PTG, are subject to the Reciprocal Truck Tariffs and other tariffs which have been or may be announced. We believe that, although PTG may experience increased demand for its service and parts operations and used trucks as a result of the tariffs, ongoing tariff volatility combined with general economic and freight market uncertainty may suppress new and used commercial vehicle demand. As of June September 30, 2025, the Class 6-8 medium- and heavy-duty truck backlog is 140,938 136,527 units according to data published by ACT Research compared to 215,156 190,602 as of June September 30, 2024, and a decrease of 27.4% 3.1% since the prior quarter.
Commercial Vehicle Distribution and Other. During the six nine months ended June September 30, 2025, the Australian heavy-duty truck market reported sales of 7,142 10,563 units, representing a decrease of 18.6% 17.8% from the same period last year, while the New Zealand market reported sales of 1,140 1,743 units, representing a decrease of 40.7% 37.8% from the same period last year. Our power system operations continue to grow through sales in the off-highway segments such as energy solutions, which provide power systems for large data centers, mining, and military applications.
Penske Transportation Solutions. A majority of PTS' revenue is generated by multi-year contracts for full-service leasing, contract maintenance, and logistics services. PTS also rents additional trucks to commercial customers in response to demand for freight as well as consumer customers. With a managed fleet of over 414,000 405,000 vehicles at June September 30, 2025, PTS regularly sells trucks in order to maintain a low fleet age as well as in response to changes in demand for truck leasing and records a gain or loss on those sales. PTS has experienced an increase a decrease in revenue from its leasing and maintenance business, though it has experienced earnings during the third quarter as continued weakness in the freight market drove a decline in truck rental revenue, coupled with an increase in bad debt expense and lower gain on the sale of used trucks. associated with continued weakness In the freight market. In response, PTS has decreased the size of its consumer and commercial rental fleets, aimed at improving the utilization rate of the fleet and has implemented certain operational improvements to mitigate the challenges associated with the prolonged recessionary freight rate environment. PTS could also be negatively impacted by the tariffs discussed above, which could increase its costs of acquiring vehicles and parts. as well as negatively impact the general freight environment.
As described in "Forward-Looking Statements," there are a number of factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations, including those discussed in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, Part II, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2025, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and our other periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Automotive and commercial truck dealerships represent 97.3% of our revenue and 85.1% 82.4% of our earnings before taxes during the six nine months ended June September 30, 2025. Income from our PTS investment represents 12.9% 15.0% of our earnings before taxes during the six nine months ended June September 30, 2025. New and used vehicle revenues typically include sales to retail customers, agency customers, fleet customers, and leasing companies providing consumer leasing. We generate finance and insurance revenues from sales of third-party extended service contracts, sales of third-party insurance policies, commissions relating to the sale of finance and lease contracts to third parties, and the sales of certain other products. Service and parts revenues include fees paid by customers for repair, maintenance and collision services, and the sale of replacement parts and other aftermarket accessories as well as warranty repairs that are reimbursed directly by vehicle manufacturers.

Across our consolidated business, total revenue decreased $34.4 increased $104.5 million, or 0.4%, 1.4%, and gross profit increased $32.5 $5.9 million, or 2.6%, 0.5%, during the three months ended June September 30, 2025. For the six nine months ended June September 30, 2025, total revenue increased $122.3 $226.8 million, or 0.8%, 1.0%, and gross profit increased $56.3 $62.2 million, or 2.2%, 1.7%, compared to the same periods in 2024.
As exchange rates fluctuate, our revenue and results of operations as reported in U.S. Dollars fluctuate. For example, if the British Pound were to weaken against the U.S. Dollar, our U.K. results of operations would translate into less U.S. Dollar reported results. Foreign currency average rate fluctuations increased revenue and gross profit by $136.6 $92.8 million and $20.2 $13.4 million, respectively, for the three months ended June September 30, 2025, and increased revenue and gross profit by $96.2 $189.0 million and $13.3 $26.7 million, respectively, for the six nine months ended June September 30, 2025, compared to the same periods in 2024. Foreign currency average rate fluctuations increased earnings per share by approximately $0.03 $0.02 per share for the three months ended June September 30, 2025, and increased earnings per share by approximately $0.02 per share for the six nine months ended June September 30, 2025, compared to the same periods in 2024.

Our results for the six nine months ended June September 30, 2025, include a gain of $52.3 million from the sale of one retail automotive franchise in the U.S. in the first quarter of 2025, resulting in an after-tax gain of $38.9 million, or $0.58 per share. This gain was partially offset by impairments and other charges in the first quarter of 2025 of $25.2 million (none of which was individually material), resulting in an after-tax expense of $20.9 million, or $0.31 per share. This resulted in a net after-tax gain of $18.0 million, or $0.27 per share.

Retail unit deliveries of new vehicles decreased increased from 2024 to 2025 due to a 2,963 2,204 unit, or 5.0%, decrease 3.9%, increase in same-store new retail unit deliveries, coupled with partially offset by a 494 1,478 unit decrease from net dealership acquisitions/dispositions throughout the second half of 2024. dispositions. Same-store retail units delivered decreased 0.2% increased 8.9% in the U.S. and decreased 11.0% 2.1% internationally. Overall, new retail unit deliveries increased 0.6% 6.4% in the U.S. and decreased 13.3% 5.2% internationally. We believe the increase in same-store retail unit sales in the U.S. is primarily due to increased EV sales in the U.S. due to the expiration of certain tax credits during the quarter and continued strong consumer demand. We believe the decrease in same-store retail unit deliveries internationally is primarily due to a comparative decrease in the sale of premium branded premium-branded vehicles across the U.K. and decreased manufacturer incentives and other programs, partially offset driven by increased consumer demand macroeconomic pressures from inflation, coupled with an increase in social program costs, and the U.S. in response to tariff announcements.

We believe the increase in same-store comparative average retail selling price (excluding agency) is primarily due to changes in the increased costs of acquiring vehicles from the manufacturer and a change in mix of higher priced units products sold, coupled with the transition to the agency model for certain brands in the U.K.
Retail gross profit from new vehicle sales decreased from 2024 to 2025 due to an $11.8 a $13.4 million, or 4.1%, 5.1%, decrease in same-store gross profit, partially offset by coupled with a $3.2 $2.4 million increase decrease from net dealership acquisitions/dispositions resulting in sales of more premium branded vehicles with comparatively higher gross margins. dispositions.

Retail unit sales of used vehicles decreased from 2024 to 2025 due to a 7,544 1,600 unit decrease from net dealership acquisitions/dispositions, coupled with a 1,430 unit, or 12.3%, 2.6%, decrease in same-store used retail unit sales. coupled with a 3,028 unit decrease from net dealership dispositions. Our same-store units decreased 3.9% increased 0.9% in the U.S. and decreased 19.8% 5.9% internationally. Overall, our used units decreased 3.3% 0.6% in the U.S. and decreased 26.6% 9.7% internationally. Same-store unit sales were impacted by the transition of our U.K. CarShop locations to Sytner Select dealerships during the third quarter of 2024 which sell fewer units. Excluding the decrease of 5,153 1,123 units across the U.K. Sytner Select dealerships, same-store used retail unit sales of used vehicles decreased by 2,391 307 units. Excluding the U.K. Sytner Select dealerships from both periods, used vehicles retailed decreased 6.3% 3.9% internationally and decreased 4.6% 2.1% overall and same-store used units decreased 5.5% 2.4% internationally and decreased 4.6% 0.6% overall. In addition to the impact from net dealership dispositions, we believe the decrease in same-store retail sales of used units was driven largely by a change in inventory management strategy of our used vehicles internationally, coupled with challenges in sourcing related to the availability of lower mileage, higher quality used vehicles and comparatively fewer lease returns primarily in the U.S.

Interest Rates. We are exposed to market risk from changes in the interest rates on a significant portion of our outstanding debt. Outstanding revolving balances under our credit agreements bear interest at the prevailing benchmark interest rates in our various markets. Based on an average of the aggregate amounts outstanding under these facilities during the six nine months ended June September 30, 2025, a 100-basis-point change in interest rates would result in an approximate $4.6 $4.8 million change to our annual other interest expense.
Similarly, amounts outstanding under floor plan financing arrangements also bear interest at the prevailing benchmark interest rates in our various markets. Based on an average of the aggregate amounts outstanding under our floor plan financing arrangements subject to variable interest payments during the six nine months ended June September 30, 2025, a 100-basis-point change in interest rates would result in an approximate $38.6 $38.8 million change to our annual floor plan interest expense.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rates. As of June September 30, 2025, we had consolidated operations in the U.K., Germany, Italy, Japan, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. In each of these markets, the local currency is the functional currency. In the event we change our intent with respect to the investment in any of our international operations, we would expect to implement strategies designed to manage those risks in an effort to mitigate the effect of foreign currency fluctuations on our earnings and cash flows. A ten percent change in average exchange rates versus the U.S. Dollar would have resulted in an approximate $627.5 $929.2 million change to our revenues for the six nine months ended June September 30, 2025.
