RICHMOND, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--CarMax, Inc. (NYSE:KMX), the nation’s largest retailer of used cars, today reported net income and earnings per share for the second quarter ended August 31, 2019.
Highlights:
- Net sales and operating revenues increased 9.1% to $5.20 billion.
- Used unit sales in comparable stores increased 3.2%.
- Total used unit sales rose 6.2%.
- Total wholesale unit sales increased 4.7%.
- CarMax Auto Finance (CAF) income increased 4.1% to $114.1 million.
- Net earnings increased 5.8% to $233.6 million and net earnings per diluted share increased 12.9% to $1.40.
- Omni-channel experience remains on track to be available to the majority of customers by the end of fiscal 2020.
CEO Commentary:
“CarMax posted solid second quarter results, and our double-digit increase in earnings per share reflected growth across our used, wholesale and CAF operations, along with ongoing share repurchases,” said Bill Nash, president and chief executive officer.
“In addition, we made significant progress on the roll-out of our omni-channel experience, and we remain confident that this is the future of car buying,” continued Nash. “This experience, which allows customers to move seamlessly between online channels and physical locations, is now offered to approximately one-third of our customer base. And, we remain on track to reach the majority of our customers by the end of this fiscal year.”
Second Quarter Business Performance Review:
Sales. Total used vehicle unit sales increased 6.2%, including a 3.2% increase in comparable store used unit sales compared with the prior year’s second quarter. The comparable store sales performance reflected strong conversion and solid growth in web traffic.
Total wholesale vehicle unit sales increased 4.7% compared with the second quarter of fiscal 2019, largely driven by an increase in our appraisal buy rate, partially offset by lower appraisal traffic.
Other sales and revenues increased 8.5% compared with the second quarter of fiscal 2019. Extended protection plan (EPP) net revenues rose 15.0%, reflecting the combined effects of our used unit growth, increased margin and higher product penetration rates. In addition, we recognized a $6.5 million benefit for estimated EPP profit-sharing revenues compared with a $4.4 million benefit recognized in the prior year’s quarter. Net third-party finance fees were comparable with the prior year period.
Gross Profit. Total gross profit increased 6.6% versus last year’s second quarter to $693.5 million. Used vehicle gross profit rose 6.4%, largely reflecting the increase in total used unit sales. Used vehicle gross profit per unit remained stable at $2,183. Wholesale vehicle gross profit increased 5.7% versus the prior year’s quarter, driven by the increase in wholesale unit sales and an increase in wholesale vehicle gross profit per unit to $928 compared with $919 in last year’s second quarter. Other gross profit increased 8.2%, largely reflecting the improvement in other sales and revenues.
SG&A. Compared with the second quarter of fiscal 2019, SG&A expenses increased 6.0% to $480.8 million. Factors contributing to the year-over-year change included the 9% increase in our store base since the beginning of last year’s second quarter (representing the addition of 18 stores); higher costs associated with our sales growth; and continued spending to advance our technology platforms and support our core and omni-channel strategic initiatives. Due to shifts in the timing of our spend, advertising expense remained consistent with the prior year’s quarter. SG&A per used unit was $2,300 in the current quarter, down $4 year-over-year.
CarMax Auto Finance.(1) Compared with last year’s second quarter, CAF income increased 4.1% to $114.1 million, reflecting a 7.8% increase in average managed receivables, slightly offset by a higher loan loss provision. The provision for loan losses increased to $45.5 million from $40.0 million in the prior year quarter, reflecting both the growth in average managed receivables and a small increase in the provision as a percentage of managed receivables. Net losses remained well within our long-term targeted performance range. The allowance for loan losses grew slightly to 1.15% of ending managed receivables as of August 31, 2019, compared with 1.14% as of May 31, 2019, and 1.13% as of August 31, 2018. The total interest margin percentage, which represents the spread between interest and fees charged to consumers and our funding costs, remained constant at 5.7% of average managed receivables in both the current and the prior year’s second quarter.
Share Repurchase Activity. We repurchased 1.5 million shares of common stock for $128.3 million pursuant to our share repurchase program during the second quarter of fiscal 2020. As of August 31, 2019, we had $1.78 billion remaining available for repurchase under the outstanding authorization.

Although CAF benefits from certain indirect overhead expenditures, we have not allocated indirect costs to CAF to avoid making subjective allocation decisions. |

Store Openings
During the second quarter of fiscal 2020, we opened three stores -- two in existing markets (San Francisco, California, and Phoenix, Arizona) and one in a new market (Lubbock, Texas).
We currently plan to open the following stores during the 12 months ending August 31, 2020. During this period, we will be entering three new television markets and expanding our presence in ten existing television markets. Of the 13 stores we plan to open during this period, 5 will be in Metropolitan Statistical Areas having populations of 600,000 or less, which we define as small markets. Normal construction, permitting or other scheduling delays could shift the opening dates of any of these stores into a later period.
