NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

(In millions, except share and per share amounts)

1. Interim Financial Statements

Unless the context otherwise requires, the use of the terms “PAG,” “we,” “us,” and “our” in these Notes to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements refers to Penske Automotive Group, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

Business Overview and Concentrations

We are a diversified international transportation services company and one of the world's premier automotive and commercial truck retailers. We operate dealerships principally in the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Germany, Italy, and Japan, and we are one of the largest retailers of commercial trucks in North America for Freightliner. We also distribute and retail commercial vehicles, diesel and gas engines, power systems, and related parts and services principally in Australia and New Zealand. Additionally, we own 28.9% of Penske Transportation Solutions, a business that manages a fleet of over 386,000 vehicles providing innovative transportation, supply chain, and technology solutions to North American fleets.

Retail Automotive. We are one of the largest global automotive retailers as measured by the $22.5 billion in total retail automotive dealership revenue we generated in 2021. As of June 30, 2022, we operated 332 retail automotive franchised dealerships, of which 152 are located in the U.S. and 180 are located outside of the U.S. The franchised dealerships outside the U.S. are located primarily in the U.K. We also operate 21 used vehicle dealerships in the U.S. and the U.K. which retail used vehicles under a one price, “no-haggle” methodology under the CarShop brand. Our CarShop operations consist of eight retail dealerships in the U.S. and 13 retail dealerships and a vehicle preparation center in the U.K. We retailed and wholesaled more than 276,000 vehicles in the six months ended June 30, 2022. We are diversified geographically with 56% of our total retail automotive dealership revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2022, generated in the U.S. and Puerto Rico and 44% generated outside the U.S. We offer over 35 vehicle brands with 70% of our retail automotive franchised dealership revenue in the six months ended June 30, 2022, generated from premium brands, such as Audi, BMW, Land Rover, Mercedes-Benz, and Porsche.

Each of our franchised dealerships offers a wide selection of new and used vehicles for sale. 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, and replacement and aftermarket automotive products. We operate our franchised dealerships under franchise agreements with automotive manufacturers and distributors that are subject to certain rights and restrictions typical of the industry. In March 2022, we agreed to transition our U.K. Mercedes Benz dealerships to an agency model beginning in 2023. Under an agency model, our U.K. Mercedes Benz dealerships will receive a fee for facilitating the sale by the manufacturer of a new vehicle but will not hold the vehicle in inventory. We will continue to provide new vehicle customer service at our U.K. Mercedes Benz dealerships, and the agency model does not structurally change our used vehicle sales operations or service and parts operations. See Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, for a discussion of agency.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we acquired ten retail automotive franchises, consisting of six franchises in the U.K. and four franchises in the U.S., and we opened two retail automotive franchises that we were awarded in the U.S. Additionally, the Company has signed an agreement to acquire five Mercedes-Benz dealerships and three aftersales locations in North London, United Kingdom, from Mercedes-Benz Retail Group U.K. Closing of the transaction is expected to occur during the third quarter of 2022, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of customary conditions. We also acquired a BMW/MINI collision center in the U.K. and a BMW/MINI collision center in the U.S. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, we closed two CarShop satellite locations in the U.K. to reduce costs.

Retail Commercial Truck Dealership. We operate Premier Truck Group (“PTG”), a heavy- and medium-duty truck dealership group offering primarily Freightliner and Western Star trucks (both Daimler brands) with locations across nine U.S. states and Ontario, Canada. During February 2022, we acquired TEAM Truck Centres, a retailer of heavy- and medium-duty Freightliner and Western Star commercial trucks located in Ontario, Canada representing four full-service dealerships. As of June 30, 2022, PTG operated 39 locations which sell new and used trucks, parts and service, and collision repair services, which decreased from 41 locations due to the closure of two parts and service locations as a result

of the transition of customers to other existing locations. We retailed and wholesaled more than 9,100 trucks in the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Penske Australia. Penske Australia is the exclusive importer and distributor of Western Star heavy-duty trucks (a Daimler Truck brand), MAN heavy- and medium-duty trucks and buses (a VW Group brand), and Dennis Eagle refuse collection vehicles, together with associated parts, across Australia, New Zealand, and portions of the Pacific. In most of these same markets, we are also a leading distributor of diesel and gas engines and power systems, principally representing MTU (a Rolls-Royce solution), Detroit Diesel, Allison Transmission, and Bergen Engines. Penske Australia offers products across the on- and off-highway markets, including in the trucking, mining, power generation, defense, marine, rail, and construction sectors and supports full parts and aftersales service through a network of branches, field service locations, and dealers across the region.

Penske Transportation Solutions. We hold a 28.9% ownership interest in Penske Truck Leasing Co., L.P. (“PTL”). PTL is owned 41.1% by Penske Corporation, 28.9% by us, and 30.0% by Mitsui & Co., Ltd. (“Mitsui”). We account for our investment in PTL under the equity method, and we therefore record our share of PTL’s earnings on our statements of income under the caption “Equity in earnings of affiliates,” which also includes the results of our other equity method investments. Penske Transportation Solutions (“PTS”) is the universal brand name for PTL’s various business lines through which it is capable of meeting customers’ needs across the supply chain with a broad product offering that includes full-service truck leasing, truck rental, and contract maintenance along with logistic services, such as dedicated contract carriage, distribution center management, transportation management, lead logistics provider services, and dry van truckload carrier services.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements of PAG have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and disclosures normally included in our annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the SEC rules and regulations. The information presented as of June 30, 2022 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 is unaudited but includes all adjustments which our management believes to be necessary for the fair presentation of results for the periods presented. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year. These consolidated condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021, which are included as part of our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The accounts requiring the use of significant estimates include accounts receivable, inventories, income taxes, intangible assets, leases, and certain reserves.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Accounting standards define fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset, or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Accounting standards establish a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value and also

Table of Contents

establishes the following three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:


Level 1			Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2			Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted market prices in markets that are not active, or model-derived valuations or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities

Level 3			Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities

Our financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, debt, floor plan notes payable, forward exchange contracts, and interest rate swaps used to hedge future cash flows. Other than our fixed rate debt, the carrying amount of all significant financial instruments approximates fair value due either to length of maturity, the existence of variable interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates, or as a result of mark to market accounting.

Our fixed rate debt consists of amounts outstanding under our senior subordinated notes and mortgage facilities. We estimate the fair value of our senior unsecured notes using quoted prices for the identical liability (Level 2), and we estimate the fair value of our mortgage facilities using a present value technique based on our current market interest rates for similar types of financial instruments (Level 2). A summary of our debt is as follows:


	June 30, 2022		December 31, 2021
	Carrying Value	Fair Value	Carrying Value	Fair Value
3.50% senior subordinated notes due 2025	545.4	511.8	544.7	$	560.5
3.75% senior subordinated notes due 2029	494.7	413.5	494.3	490.7
Mortgage facilities (1)	366.9	347.2	353.8	359.8
_____________________
(1)In addition to fixed rate debt, our mortgage facilities also include a revolving mortgage facility through Toyota Motor Credit Corporation that bears interest at a variable rate based on LIBOR. The fair value equals the carrying value.

Disposals

The results of operations for disposals are included within continuing operations unless they meet the criteria to be classified as held for sale and treated as discontinued operations.

Income Taxes

Tax regulations may require items to be included in our tax return at different times than when those items are reflected in our financial statements. Some of the differences are permanent, such as expenses that are not deductible on our tax return, and some are temporary differences, such as the timing of depreciation expense. Temporary differences create deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets generally represent items that will be used as a tax deduction or credit in our tax return in future years which we have already recorded in our financial statements. Deferred tax liabilities generally represent deductions taken on our tax return that have not yet been recognized as an expense in our financial statements. We establish valuation allowances for our deferred tax assets if the amount of expected future taxable income is not more likely than not to allow for the use of the deduction or credit.

Penske Transportation Solutions Adoption of ASC 842

On January 1, 2022, Penske Transportation Solutions, our equity method investment of which we own 28.9%, adopted ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” The adoption resulted in a net, after-tax cumulative effect adjustment to our retained earnings of $121.6 million.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Reference Rate Reform

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting.” This ASU provides optional guidance for a limited time to ease the

Table of Contents

potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. The new guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments apply only to contracts and hedging relationships that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") or another reference rate expected to be discontinued due to reference rate reform. Additionally, entities can elect to continue applying hedge accounting for hedging relationships affected by reference rate reform if certain conditions are met. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope.” This ASU refines the scope of ASC 848 and clarifies some of its guidance as part of the Board’s monitoring of global reference rate reform activities. The ASU permits entities to elect certain optional expedients and exceptions when accounting for derivative contracts and certain hedging relationships affected by changes in the interest rates used for discounting cash flows, for computing variation margin settlements, and for calculating price alignment interest in connection with reference rate reform activities. These new standards were effective upon issuance and generally can be applied to applicable contract modifications through December 31, 2022. While our credit facility in the U.S. and many of our floorplan arrangements utilize LIBOR as a benchmark for calculating the applicable interest rate, some of our floorplan arrangements and our U.K. credit agreement have already transitioned to utilizing an alternative benchmark rate. We are continuing to evaluate the impact of the transition from LIBOR to alternative reference interest rates. We cannot predict the effect of the potential changes to or elimination of LIBOR, the establishment and use of alternative rates or benchmarks, and the corresponding effects on our cost of capital but do not expect a significant impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

2. Revenues

Automotive and commercial truck dealerships generate the majority of our revenues. New and used vehicle revenues typically include sales to retail customers, to fleet customers, and to 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 various vehicle manufacturers. Revenues are recognized upon satisfaction of our performance obligations under contracts with our customers and are measured at the amount of consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for transferring goods or providing services. A discussion of revenue recognition by reportable segment is included below.

Retail Automotive and Retail Commercial Truck Dealership Revenue Recognition

Dealership Vehicle Sales. We record revenue for vehicle sales at a point in time when vehicles are delivered, which is when the transfer of title, risks and rewards of ownership, and control are considered passed to the customer. The amount of consideration we receive for vehicle sales is stated within the executed contract with our customer and is reduced by any noncash consideration representing the fair value of trade-in vehicles, if applicable. Payment is typically due and collected within 30 days subsequent to transfer of control of the vehicle.

Dealership Parts and Service Sales. We record revenue for vehicle service and collision work over time as work is completed and when parts are delivered to our customers. For service and parts revenues recorded over time, we utilize a method that considers total costs incurred to date and the applicable margin in relation to total expected efforts to complete our performance obligation in order to determine the appropriate amount of revenue to recognize over time. Recognition of this revenue over time reflects the amount of consideration we expect to be entitled to for the transfer of goods and services performed to date, representative of the amount for which we have a right to payment. The amount of consideration we receive for parts and service sales, including collision repair work, is based upon labor hours expended and parts utilized to perform and complete the necessary services to our customers. Payment is typically due upon delivery or within a period of time shortly thereafter. We receive payment from our customers upon transfer of control or within a period typically less than 30 days subsequent to the completion of services for the customer. We allow for customer returns of parts sales up to 30 days after the sale; however, parts returns are not material.

Dealership Finance and Insurance Sales. Subsequent to the sale of a vehicle to a customer, we sell installment sale contracts to various financial institutions on a non-recourse basis (with specified exceptions) to mitigate the risk of default. We receive a commission from the lender equal to either the difference between the interest rate charged to the customer and the interest rate set by the financing institution or a flat fee. We also receive commissions for facilitating the sale of various products to customers, including guaranteed vehicle protection insurance, vehicle theft protection, and extended service contracts. These commissions are recorded as revenue at a point in time when the customer enters into the contract. Payment is typically due and collected within 30 days subsequent to the execution of the contract with the customer.

Table of Contents

In the case of finance contracts, a customer may prepay or fail to pay their contract, thereby terminating the contract. Customers may also terminate extended service contracts and other insurance products, which are fully paid at purchase, and become eligible for refunds of unused premiums. In these circumstances, a portion of the commissions we received may be charged back based on the terms of the contracts. The revenue we record relating to these transactions is net of an estimate of the amount of chargebacks we will be required to pay. Our estimate is based upon our historical experience with similar contracts, including the impact of refinance and default rates on retail finance contracts and cancellation rates on extended service contracts and other insurance products. Aggregate reserves relating to chargeback activity were $36.1 million and $33.7 million as of June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Commercial Vehicle Distribution and Other Revenue Recognition

Penske Australia. We record revenue from the distribution of vehicles and other products at a point in time when delivered, which is when the transfer of title, risks and rewards of ownership, and control are considered passed to the customer. We record revenue for service or repair work over time as work is completed and when parts are delivered to our customers. For service and parts revenues recorded over time, we utilize a method that considers total costs incurred to date and the applicable margin in relation to total expected efforts to complete our performance obligation in order to determine the appropriate amount of revenue to recognize over time. Recognition of this revenue over time reflects the amount of consideration we expect to be entitled to for the transfer of goods and services performed to date, representative of the amount for which we have a right to payment.

The amount of consideration we receive for vehicle and product sales is stated within the executed contract with our customer. The amount of consideration we receive for parts and service sales is based upon labor hours expended and parts utilized to perform and complete the necessary services to our customers. Payment is typically due upon delivery, upon invoice, or within a period of time shortly thereafter. We receive payment from our customers upon transfer of control or within a period typically less than 30 days subsequent to transfer of control or invoice.

We record revenue from the distribution of engines and other products at a point in time when delivered, which is when the transfer of title, risks and rewards of ownership, and control are considered passed to the customer. We record revenue for service or repair work over time as work is completed and when parts are delivered to our customers. For service and parts revenues recorded over time, we utilize a method that considers total costs incurred to date and the applicable margin in relation to total expected efforts to complete our performance obligation in order to determine the appropriate amount of revenue to recognize over time. Recognition of revenue over time reflects the amount of consideration we expect to be entitled to for the transfer of goods and services performed to date, representative of the amount for which we have a right to payment.

For our long-term power generation contracts, we record revenue over time as services are provided in accordance with contract milestones, which is considered an output method that requires judgment to determine our progress towards contract completion and the corresponding amount of revenue to recognize. Any revisions to estimates related to revenues or costs to complete contracts are recorded in the period in which the revisions to estimates are identified and the amounts can be reasonably estimated.

The amount of consideration we receive for engine, product, and power generation sales is stated within the executed contract with our customer. The amount of consideration we receive for service sales is based upon labor hours expended and parts utilized to perform and complete the necessary services to our customers. Payment is typically due upon delivery, upon invoice, or within a period of time shortly thereafter. We receive payment from our customers upon transfer of control or within a period typically less than 30 days subsequent to transfer of control or invoice.

Service and parts revenue represented $60.5 million and $115.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, and $72.0 million and $140.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, for Penske Australia.

Table of Contents

Contract Balances

The following table summarizes our accounts receivable and unearned revenues as of June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021:


	June 30, 2022		December 31, 2021
Accounts receivable
Contracts in transit	$	214.5	$	198.7
Vehicle receivables	206.1		197.7
Manufacturer receivables	141.6		157.7
Trade receivables	191.7		164.5

Accrued expenses
Unearned revenues	$	285.6	$	297.0

Contracts in transit represent receivables from unaffiliated finance companies relating to the sale of customers’ installment sales and lease contracts arising in connection with the sale of a vehicle by us. Vehicle receivables represent receivables for any portion of the vehicle sales price not paid by the finance company. Manufacturer receivables represent amounts due from manufacturers, including incentives, holdbacks, rebates, warranty claims, and other receivables due from the factory. Trade receivables represent receivables due from customers, including amounts due for parts and service sales as well as receivables due from finance companies and others for the commissions earned on financing and commissions earned on insurance and extended service products provided by third parties. We evaluate collectability of receivables and estimate an allowance for doubtful accounts based on the age of the receivable, contractual life, historical collection experience, current conditions, and forecasts of future economic conditions, which is recorded within “Accounts receivable” on our consolidated balance sheets with our receivables presented net of the allowance.

Unearned revenues primarily relate to payments received from customers prior to satisfaction of our performance obligations, such as customer deposits and deferred revenues from operating leases. These amounts are presented within “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities” on our consolidated balance sheets. Of the amounts recorded as unearned revenues as of December 31, 2021, $158.4 million was recognized as revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Additional Revenue Recognition Related Policies

We do not have any material significant payment terms associated with contracts with our customers. Payment is due and collected as previously detailed for each reportable segment. We do not offer material rights of return or service-type warranties.

Taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are recorded on a net basis (excluded from revenue). Shipping costs incurred subsequent to transfer of control to our customers are recognized as cost of sales. Sales promotions that we offer to customers are accounted for as a reduction of revenues at the time of sale.

3. Leases

We lease land and facilities, including certain dealerships and office space. Our property leases are generally for an initial period between 5 and 20 years and are typically structured to include renewal options at our election. We include renewal options that we are reasonably certain to exercise in the measurement of our lease liabilities and right-of-use assets. We also have equipment leases that primarily relate to office and computer equipment, service and shop equipment, company vehicles, and other miscellaneous items. These leases are generally for a period of less than 5 years. We do not have any material leases, individually or in the aggregate, classified as a finance leasing arrangement.

We estimate the total undiscounted rent obligations under these leases, including any extension periods that we are reasonably certain to exercise, to be $5.3 billion as of June 30, 2022. Some of our lease arrangements include rental payments that are adjusted based on an index or rate, such as the Consumer Price Index (CPI). As the rate implicit in the lease is generally not readily determinable for our operating leases, the discount rates used to determine the present value of our lease liability are based on our incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date and commensurate with the remaining lease term. Our incremental borrowing rate for a lease is the rate of interest we would have to pay to borrow on a

Table of Contents

collateralized basis over a similar term for an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet.

Pursuant to the leases for some of our larger facilities, we are required to comply with specified financial ratios, including a “rent coverage” ratio and a debt to EBITDA ratio, each as defined. For these leases, non-compliance with the ratios may require us to post collateral in the form of a letter of credit. A breach of the other lease covenants gives rise to certain remedies by the landlord, the most severe of which include the termination of the applicable lease and acceleration of the total rent payments due under the lease.

In connection with the sale, relocation, and closure of certain of our franchises, we have entered into a number of third-party sublease agreements. The rent paid by our sub-tenants on such properties was $4.6 million and $9.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, and $6.7 million and $13.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. We have in the past and may in the future enter into sale-leaseback transactions to finance certain property acquisitions and capital expenditures, pursuant to which we sell property to third parties and agree to lease those assets back for a certain period of time. Such sales generate proceeds that vary from period to period. We do not have any material leases that have not yet commenced as of June 30, 2022.

The following table summarizes our net operating lease cost during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021:


	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2022		2021		2022		2021

5. Business Combinations

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we acquired TEAM Truck Centres, a retailer of heavy- and medium-duty Freightliner and Western Star commercial trucks located in Ontario, Canada representing four full-service dealerships. We also acquired ten retail automotive franchises, consisting of six franchises in the U.K. and four franchises in the U.S. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we acquired one retail automotive franchise in the U.S. We also acquired Kansas City Freightliner (“KCFL”), adding four full-service dealerships, four parts and service centers, and two collision centers to PTG’s existing operations. Our financial statements include the results of operations of the acquired entity from the date of acquisition. The fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been recorded in our consolidated condensed financial statements and may be subject to adjustment pending completion of final valuation.

Following is a summary of the changes in the carrying amount of goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets during the six months ended June 30, 2022:


	Goodwill		Other Indefinite- Lived Intangible Assets
Balance, January 1, 2022	$	2,124.1	$	641.5
Additions	72.1		48.8
Disposals	—		—
Foreign currency translation	(56.5)		(12.4)
Balance, June 30, 2022	$	2,139.7	$	677.9

The additions during the six months ended June 30, 2022, were within our Retail Automotive and Retail Commercial Truck reportable segments. As of June 30, 2022, the goodwill balance within our Retail Automotive, Retail Commercial Truck, and Other reportable segments was $1,598.6 million, $465.2 million, and $75.9 million, respectively. There is no goodwill recorded in our Non-Automotive Investments reportable segment.

7. Vehicle Financing

We finance substantially all of the commercial vehicles we purchase for distribution, new vehicles for retail sale, and a portion of our used vehicle inventories for retail sale under floor plan and other revolving arrangements with various lenders, including the captive finance companies associated with automotive manufacturers. In the U.S., the floor plan arrangements are due on demand; however, we have not historically been required to repay floor plan advances prior to the sale of the vehicles that have been financed. We typically make monthly interest payments on the amount financed. Outside of the U.S., substantially all of the floor plan arrangements are payable on demand or have an original maturity of 90 days or less, and we are generally required to repay floor plan advances at the earlier of the sale of the vehicles that have been financed or the stated maturity.

Table of Contents

The agreements typically grant a security interest in substantially all of the assets of our dealership and distribution subsidiaries and in the U.S., Australia, and New Zealand are guaranteed or partially guaranteed by us. Interest rates under the arrangements are variable and increase or decrease based on changes in the prime rate, defined LIBOR, the Finance House Base Rate, the Euro Interbank Offered Rate, the Canadian Prime Rate, the Tokyo Interbank Offered Rate, the Australian Bank Bill Swap Rate, or the New Zealand Bank Bill Benchmark Rate. To date, we have not experienced any material limitation with respect to the amount or availability of financing from any institution providing us vehicle financing. We also receive non-refundable credits from certain of our vehicle manufacturers, which are treated as a reduction of cost of sales as vehicles are sold.

The weighted average interest rate on floor plan borrowings was 1.3% and 1.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. We classify floor plan notes payable to a party other than the manufacturer of a particular new vehicle and all floor plan notes payable relating to pre-owned vehicles as “Floor plan notes payable — non-trade” on our consolidated balance sheets and classify related cash flows as a financing activity on our consolidated statements of cash flows.

8. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the number of weighted average shares of voting common stock outstanding, including unvested restricted stock awards which contain rights to non-forfeitable dividends. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the number of weighted average shares of voting common stock outstanding, adjusted for the dilutive impact of unissued shares paid to directors as compensation. A reconciliation of the number of shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 follows:


	Three Months Ended June 30,		Six Months Ended June 30,
	2022	2021	2022	2021
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding	75,793,239	80,691,996	76,501,402	80,649,824
Effect of non-participatory equity compensation	23,880	34,442	23,880	34,442
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding, including effect of dilutive securities	75,817,119	80,726,438	76,525,282	80,684,266

U.S. Credit Agreement

Our U.S. credit agreement (the “U.S. credit agreement”) with Mercedes-Benz Financial Services USA LLC and Toyota Motor Credit Corporation provides for up to $800.0 million in revolving loans for working capital, acquisitions, capital expenditures, investments, and other general corporate purposes and up to an additional $50 million of letters of

credit. The U.S. credit agreement provides for a maximum of $150.0 million of borrowings for foreign acquisitions and expires on September 30, 2024. The interest rate on revolving loans is LIBOR plus 1.50%, subject to an incremental 1.50% for uncollateralized borrowings in excess of a defined borrowing base.

The U.S. credit agreement is fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by substantially all of our U.S. subsidiaries and contains a number of significant operating covenants that, among other things, restrict our ability to dispose of assets, incur additional indebtedness, repay certain other indebtedness, pay dividends, create liens on assets, make investments or acquisitions, and engage in mergers or consolidations. We are also required to comply with specified financial and other tests and ratios, each as defined in the U.S. credit agreement, including a ratio of current assets to current liabilities, a fixed charge coverage ratio, a ratio of debt to stockholders’ equity, and a ratio of debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”). A breach of these requirements would give rise to certain remedies under the agreement, the most severe of which is the termination of the agreement and acceleration of the amounts owed.

The U.S. credit agreement also contains typical events of default, including change of control, non-payment of 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 30, 2022, we had no outstanding revolver borrowings under the U.S. credit agreement.

U.K. Credit Agreement

Our subsidiaries in the U.K. (the “U.K. subsidiaries”) are party to a £150.0 million revolving credit agreement with the National Westminster Bank plc and BMW Financial Services (GB) Limited plus an additional £52.0 million of demand overdraft lines of credit, £40.0 million of which is only available on demand from March 20th to April 30th and September 20th to October 31st each year (relating to the peak sales periods in the U.K.), (collectively, the “U.K. credit agreement”) to be used for working capital, acquisitions, capital expenditures, investments, and general corporate purposes. The loans mature on December 12, 2023. The revolving loans bear interest between defined Sterling Overnight Index Average ("SONIA") plus 1.10% and defined SONIA plus 2.10%. The U.K. credit agreement also 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. 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. As of June 30, 2022, we had no outstanding borrowings under the U.K. credit agreement.

The U.K. credit agreement is fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by our U.K. subsidiaries and contains a number of significant covenants that, among other things, limit the ability of our U.K. subsidiaries to pay dividends, dispose of assets, incur additional indebtedness, repay other indebtedness, create liens on assets, make investments or acquisitions, and engage in mergers or consolidations. In addition, our U.K. subsidiaries are required to comply with defined ratios and tests, including a ratio of earnings before interest, taxes, amortization, and rental payments (“EBITAR”) to interest plus rental payments, a measurement of maximum capital expenditures, and a debt to EBITDA ratio. A breach of these requirements would give rise to certain remedies under the agreement, the most severe of which is the termination of the agreement and acceleration of any amounts owed.

The U.K. credit agreement also contains typical events of default, including change of control and non-payment of obligations and cross-defaults to other material indebtedness of our U.K. subsidiaries. Substantially all of our U.K. subsidiaries’ assets are subject to security interests granted to the lenders under the U.K. credit agreement.

Australia Loan Agreements

Penske Australia is party to two facilities with Volkswagen Financial Services Australia Pty Limited representing a five-year AU $50.0 million capital loan and a one-year AU $50.0 million working capital loan. Both facilities are subject to annual extensions. These agreements each provide the lender with a secured interest in all assets of these businesses. The loans bear interest at the Australian Bank Bill Swap Rate 30-day Bill Rate plus 3.0%. Irrespective of the term of the agreements, both agreements provide the lender with the ability to call the loans on 90 days’ notice. These facilities are also guaranteed by our U.S. parent company up to AU $50.0 million. As of June 30, 2022, we had AU $33.8 million ($23.3 million) outstanding under the capital loan agreement and had AU $10.0 million ($6.9 million) outstanding borrowings under the working capital loan agreement.

Mortgage Facilities

We are party to several mortgages that bear interest at defined rates and require monthly principal and interest payments. We also have a revolving mortgage facility through Toyota Motor Credit Corporation with a maximum borrowing capacity of $225 million contingent on property values and a borrowing capacity as of June 30, 2022, of $178.0 million. The facility bears interest at LIBOR plus 1.50% and expires in December 2025. As of June 30, 2022, we had $35.0 million outstanding borrowings under this mortgage facility. Our mortgage facilities also contain typical events of default, including non-payment of obligations, cross-defaults to our other material indebtedness, certain change of control events, and the loss or sale of certain franchises operated at the properties. Substantially all of the buildings and improvements on the properties financed pursuant to the mortgage facilities are subject to security interests granted to the lender. As of June 30, 2022, we owed $366.9 million of principal under our mortgage facilities.

10. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

We are involved in litigation which may relate to claims brought by governmental authorities, issues with customers, and employment related matters, including class action claims and purported class action claims. As of June 30, 2022, we were not party to any legal proceedings, including class action lawsuits that, individually or in the aggregate, are reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. However, the results of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, and an unfavorable resolution of one or more of these matters could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows.

We lease land and facilities, including certain dealerships and office space. Pursuant to the leases for some of our larger facilities, we are required to comply with specified financial ratios, including a “rent coverage” ratio and a debt to EBITDA ratio, each as defined. For these leases, non-compliance with the ratios may require us to post collateral in the form of a letter of credit. A breach of the other lease covenants gives rise to certain remedies by the landlord, the most severe of which include the termination of the applicable lease and acceleration of the total rent payments due under the lease. Refer to the disclosures provided in Note 3 for further description of our leases.

We have sold a number of dealerships to third parties and, as a condition to certain of those sales, remain liable for the lease payments relating to the properties on which those businesses operate in the event of non-payment by the buyer. We are also party to lease agreements on properties that we no longer use in our retail operations that we have sublet to third parties. We rely on subtenants to pay the rent and maintain the property at these locations. In the event the subtenant does not perform as expected, we may not be able to recover amounts owed to us, and we could be required to fulfill these obligations.

Our floor plan credit agreements with Mercedes Benz Financial Services Australia and Mercedes Benz Financial Services New Zealand (“MBA”) provide us revolving loans for the acquisition of commercial vehicles for distribution to our retail network. These facilities include a commitment to repurchase dealer vehicles in the event the dealer’s floor plan agreement with MBA is terminated.

We have $18.0 million of letters of credit outstanding as of June 30, 2022, and have posted $21.6 million of surety bonds in the ordinary course of business.

11. Equity

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, we repurchased 1,514,667 shares of our common stock for $156.2 million, or an average of $103.14 per share, under our securities repurchase program approved by our Board of Directors. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we repurchased 2,718,116 shares of our outstanding common stock for $275.4 million, or an average of $101.34 per share, under this program. In May 2022, our Board of Directors increased the authority delegated to management to repurchase our outstanding securities to $250 million, of which $167.9 million remained outstanding as of June 30, 2022. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, we acquired 148,440 shares of our common stock for $17.2 million, or an average of $115.97 per share, from employees in connection with a net share settlement feature of employee equity awards. In July 2022, our Board of Directors increased the authority delegated to management to repurchase our outstanding securities by $250 million. As a result, $330.6 million remained outstanding and available for repurchases as of July 26, 2022.

13. Segment Information

Our operations are organized by management into operating segments by line of business and geography. We have determined that we have four reportable segments as defined in generally accepted accounting principles for segment reporting: (i) Retail Automotive, consisting of our retail automotive dealership operations; (ii) Retail Commercial Truck, consisting of our retail commercial truck dealership operations in the U.S. and Canada; (iii) Other, consisting of our commercial vehicle and power systems distribution operations; and (iv) Non-Automotive Investments, consisting of our equity method investments in non-automotive operations which includes our investment in PTS and other various investments. The Retail Automotive reportable segment includes all automotive dealerships and all departments relevant to the operation of the dealerships and our retail automotive joint ventures. The individual dealership operations included in the Retail Automotive reportable segment represent six operating segments: Eastern, Central, and Western United States, Used Vehicle Dealerships United States, International, and Used Vehicle Dealerships International. These operating segments have been aggregated into one reportable segment as their operations (A) have similar economic characteristics (all are automotive dealerships having similar margins), (B) offer similar products and services (all sell new and/or used vehicles, service, parts, and third-party finance and insurance products), (C) have similar target markets and customers (generally individuals), and (D) have similar distribution and marketing practices (all distribute products and services

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those discussed in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, Part II, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, our other periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and "Forward-Looking Statements." We have acquired and initiated a number of businesses during the periods presented and addressed in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. Our financial statements include the results of operations of those businesses from the date acquired or when they commenced operations. Our period-to-period results of operations may vary depending on the dates of acquisitions or disposals.

Overview

We are a diversified international transportation services company and one of the world's premier automotive and commercial truck retailers. We operate dealerships principally in the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Germany, Italy, and Japan, and we are one of the largest retailers of commercial trucks in North America for Freightliner. We also distribute and retail commercial vehicles, diesel and gas engines, power systems, and related parts and services principally in Australia and New Zealand. We employ over 26,000 people worldwide. Additionally, we own 28.9% of Penske Transportation Solutions, a business that employs over 40,000 people worldwide and manages a fleet of over 386,000 vehicles providing innovative transportation, supply chain, and technology solutions to North American fleets.

Business Overview

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, our business generated $13.9 billion in total revenue, which is comprised of approximately $12.0 billion from retail automotive dealerships, $1.6 billion from retail commercial truck dealerships, and $294.8 million from commercial vehicle distribution and other operations. We generated $2.5 billion in gross profit, which is comprised of $2.1 billion from retail automotive dealerships, $277.2 million from retail commercial truck dealerships, and $80.8 million from commercial vehicle distribution and other operations.

Each of our franchised dealerships offers a wide selection of new and used vehicles for sale. 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, and replacement and aftermarket automotive products. 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. In March 2022, we agreed to transition our U.K. Mercedes Benz dealerships to an agency model beginning in 2023. Under an agency model, our U.K. Mercedes Benz dealerships will receive a fee for facilitating the sale by the manufacturer of a new vehicle but will not hold the vehicle in inventory. We will continue to provide new vehicle customer service at our U.K. Mercedes Benz dealerships, and the agency model does not structurally change our used vehicle sales operations or service and parts operations. See Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, for a discussion of agency.

acquired a BMW/MINI collision center in the U.K. and a BMW/MINI collision center in the U.S. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, we closed two CarShop satellite locations in the U.K. to reduce costs. Retail automotive dealerships represented 86.6% of our total revenues and 85.5% of our total gross profit in the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Outlook

Retail Automotive. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, U.S. industry new light vehicle sales decreased 18.3%, as compared to the same period last year, to 6.8 million units, and U.K. new vehicle registrations decreased 11.9%, as compared to the same period last year, to 802,079 registrations. We believe the year over year decrease in overall sales is primarily attributable to a lower supply of new vehicles available for sale due to disruptions in the supply chain caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, production disruptions caused by a shortage of microchips or other components, and the recent war in Ukraine. Our new vehicle days’ supply is 21 as of June 30, 2022, compared to 17 as of December 31, 2021. While we expect to continue to have adequate levels of used vehicles for sale (our used vehicle days’ supply is 42 as of June 30, 2022, compared to 60 as of December 31, 2021), prolonged shortages could result in lower new vehicle sales volumes which could impact the availability and affordability of used vehicles and adversely affect us. The lower supply of new vehicles contributed to higher vehicle gross profit on both new and used vehicles sold, which contributed to our higher overall profitability. We expect lower inventories of new vehicles and parts disruptions to continue until the supply of certain components used to manufacture vehicles improves. When the supply of vehicles improves, we may experience reduced new and used vehicle gross profit together with higher sales volumes.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, our premium/luxury unit sales, which account for over 93% of our U.K. new unit sales, decreased 9.3% as compared to the same period last year, compared to a 21.4% decrease for the premium/luxury U.K. market and an 11.9% decrease for the overall U.K. market over the same prior year period, as many of the premium brands we represent in the U.K. market were impacted by production disruptions from the supply chain challenges.

Table of Contents

We believe U.K. new car sales were also impacted by potentially higher taxes on diesel-powered vehicles and consumer uncertainty about low emission zones as the U.K. and Western European countries consider the ramifications of diesel engines on the environment, while also providing government incentives on certain electric vehicles. Representatives of the U.K. government have proposed a ban on the sale of gasoline engines in new cars and new vans that would take effect as early as 2030 and a ban on the sale of gasoline hybrid engines in new cars and new vans as early as 2035. Sales of diesel-powered vehicles decreased 50.6%, and non-diesel vehicles decreased 7.4%, during the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the same period last year. In the U.K., new registrations of electric vehicles, including Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV), Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV), and Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV), represented 32.2% of the overall market for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to 22.5% for the same period last year, and represented 22.0% of our U.K. new unit sales, compared with 14.6% over the same prior year period.

Retail Commercial Truck Dealership. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, North American sales of Class 6-8 medium- and heavy-duty trucks, the principal vehicles for our PTG business, increased 1.0% from the same period last year to 206,480 units. The Class 6-7 medium-duty truck market increased 0.5% from the same period last year to 66,459 units, and Class 8 heavy-duty trucks, the largest North American market, increased 1.2% from the same period last year to 140,021 units. The truck market is experiencing the same production issues noted above as the Class 6-8 medium- and heavy-duty truck backlog decreased only 2.6% from the same period last year to 333,796 units. We expect lower inventories of new commercial trucks and parts disruptions to continue until the supply of certain components used to manufacture commercial trucks improves. When the supply of commercial trucks improves, we may experience reduced new and used commercial truck gross profit per unit together with higher sales volumes.

Commercial Vehicle Distribution and Other. Penske Australia operates principally in the Australian and New Zealand heavy and medium-duty truck markets. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Australian heavy-duty truck market reported sales of 6,916 units, representing an increase of 19.4% from the same period last year, while the New Zealand market reported sales of 1,668 units, representing an increase of 15.2% from the same period last year.

Penske Transportation Solutions. A majority of PTS's revenue is generated by multi-year contracts for full-service leasing, contract maintenance, and logistics services. We expect continued resilient performance in 2022 as PTS has experienced strong demand and profitability for commercial rental trucks and full-service leasing, as well as used vehicle sales.

As described in “Forward-Looking Statements,” there are a number of factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations.

Operating Overview

Automotive and commercial truck dealerships represent over 95% and 70% of our revenue and our earnings before taxes, respectively. Income from our PTS investment represents over 25% of our earnings before taxes. New and used vehicle revenues typically include sales to retail 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 various vehicle manufacturers.

Our gross profit tends to vary with the mix of revenues we derive from the sale of new vehicles, used vehicles, finance and insurance products, and service and parts transactions. Our gross profit varies across product lines with vehicle sales usually resulting in lower gross profit margins and our other revenues resulting in higher gross profit margins. Factors such as inventory and vehicle availability, customer demand, consumer confidence, unemployment, general economic conditions, seasonality, weather, credit availability, fuel prices, and manufacturers’ advertising and incentives also impact the mix of our revenues and therefore, influence our gross profit margin.

The results of our commercial vehicle distribution and other business in Australia and New Zealand are principally driven by the number and types of products and vehicles ordered by our customers.

Aggregate revenue and gross profit decreased $80.6 million, or 1.2%, and increased $54.3 million, or 4.6%, respectively, during the three months ended June 30, 2022, and increased $1,121.0 million, or 8.8%, and increased $372.8 million, or 17.8%, respectively, during the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the same periods in 2021.

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 decreased revenue and gross profit by $245.2 million and $33.3 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2022, and decreased revenue and gross profit by $279.8 million and $36.6 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2022. Foreign currency average rate fluctuations decreased earnings per share from continuing operations by approximately $0.11 per share for the three months ended June 30, 2022, and decreased earnings per share from continuing operations by approximately $0.16 per share for the six months ended June 30, 2022. Excluding the impact of foreign currency average rate fluctuations, revenue and gross profit increased 2.4% and increased 7.4%, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2022, and increased 11.0% and increased 19.5%, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Our selling expenses consist of advertising and compensation for sales personnel, including commissions and related bonuses. General and administrative expenses include compensation for administration, finance, legal and general management personnel, rent, insurance, utilities, and other expenses. As the majority of our selling expenses are variable and a significant portion of our general and administrative expenses are subject to our control, we believe our expenses can be adjusted over time to reflect economic trends.

Equity in earnings of affiliates principally represents our share of the earnings from PTS, along with our investments in joint ventures and other non-consolidated investments.

Floor plan interest expense relates to financing incurred in connection with the acquisition of new and used vehicle inventories that are secured by those vehicles. Other interest expense consists of interest charges on all of our interest-bearing debt, other than interest relating to floor plan financing, and includes interest relating to our retail commercial truck dealership and commercial vehicle distribution and other operations. The cost of our variable rate indebtedness is based on the prime rate, defined LIBOR, the Bank of England Base Rate, the Finance House Base Rate, the Euro Interbank Offered Rate, the Canadian Prime Rate, the Tokyo Interbank Offered Rate, the Australian Bank Bill Swap Rate, or the New Zealand Bank Bill Benchmark Rate.

Regulatory authorities in the U.S. have announced their intention to stop compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR, ending after June 30, 2023, for the LIBOR tenors that are relevant to our business. Our senior secured revolving credit facility in the U.S. and many of our floorplan arrangements utilize LIBOR as a benchmark for calculating the applicable interest rate, although some of our floorplan arrangements and our U.K. credit agreement have already transitioned to utilizing an alternative benchmark rate. Our U.K. credit agreement transitioned from LIBOR to SONIA as of January 1, 2022. We cannot predict the effect of the potential changes to or elimination of LIBOR or the establishment and use of alternative rates or benchmarks and the corresponding effects on our cost of capital.

The future success of our business is dependent upon, among other things, general economic and industry conditions, including the effect of COVID-19 on the global economy; the distribution rate and acceptance of vaccines for COVID-19; our ability to react effectively to changing business conditions in light of the COVID-19 pandemic; the rate of inflation; our ability to consummate and integrate acquisitions; the level of vehicle sales in the markets where we operate; our ability to obtain vehicles and parts from our manufacturers, especially in light of the COVID-19 pandemic and the war in Ukraine, including global shortages in microchip availability or other vehicle components; changes in the retail model either from direct sales by manufacturers, transition to an agency model of sales, sales by online competitors, or from the expansion of electric vehicles; our ability to realize returns on our significant capital investment in new and upgraded dealership facilities; our ability to navigate a rapidly changing automotive and truck landscape; the success of our distribution of commercial vehicles, engines, and power systems; and the return realized from our investments in various joint ventures and other non-consolidated investments. See “Forward-Looking Statements” below.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the application of accounting policies that often involve making estimates and employing judgments. Such judgments influence the assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses recognized in our financial statements. Management, on an ongoing basis, reviews these estimates and assumptions. Management may determine that modifications in assumptions and estimates are required, which may result in a material change in our results of operations or financial position.

The accounting policies and estimates that we believe to be most dependent upon the use of estimates and assumptions are revenue recognition, goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets, investments, self-insurance reserves, lease recognition, and income taxes. Refer to “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of

Table of Contents

Operations” in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional detail and discussion of these critical accounting policies and estimates. There have been no material changes in critical accounting policies and estimates as described in our most recent Annual Report.

Refer to Part I, Item 1, Note 1 and Note 3 of the Notes to our Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for disclosures regarding estimates and judgments related to lease recognition. Refer to Part I, Item 1, Note 2 of the Notes to our Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for disclosures regarding estimates and judgments related to revenue recognition. Refer to “Income Taxes” within Part I, Item 1, Note 1 of the Notes to our Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for disclosures regarding estimates and judgments related to income taxes.

Results of Operations

The following tables present comparative financial data relating to our operating performance in the aggregate and on a “same-store” basis. Dealership results are included in same-store comparisons when we have consolidated the acquired entity during the entirety of both periods being compared. As an example, if a dealership were acquired on January 15, 2020, the results of the acquired entity would be included in annual same-store comparisons beginning with the year ended December 31, 2022, and in quarterly same-store comparisons beginning with the quarter ended June 30, 2021.

Units

Retail unit sales of new vehicles decreased from 2021 to 2022 due to a 14,735 unit, or 25.5%, decrease in same-store new retail unit sales, partially offset by a 2,461 unit increase from net dealership acquisitions. Same-store units decreased 30.1% in the U.S. and decreased 15.4% internationally. Overall, new unit sales decreased 27.0% in the U.S. and decreased 8.3% internationally. We believe the decrease in same-store unit sales is due to a lower supply of new vehicles available for sale, which has been caused by supply chain issues discussed above.

Revenues

New vehicle retail sales revenue decreased from 2021 to 2022 due to a $499.3 million, or 17.8%, decrease in same-store revenues, partially offset by a $134.0 million increase from net dealership acquisitions. Excluding $92.2 million of unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations, same-store new retail revenue decreased 14.5%. The decrease in same-store revenue is due to the decrease in same-store new retail unit sales, which decreased revenue by $716.4 million, partially offset by a $5,052 per unit increase in same-store comparative average selling price (including a $2,145 per unit decrease attributable to unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations), which increased revenue by $217.1 million. We believe the increase in same-store comparative average selling price is due to increased customer demand and a lower supply of new vehicles available for sale, which has been caused by supply chain issues discussed above.

Gross Profit

Retail gross profit from new vehicle sales increased from 2021 to 2022 due to an $18.7 million, or 6.8%, increase in same-store gross profit, coupled with a $17.0 million increase from net dealership acquisitions. Excluding $11.0 million of unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations, same-store gross profit increased 10.8%. The increase in same-store gross profit is due to a $2,072 per unit increase in same-store comparative average gross profit (including a $257 per unit decrease attributable to unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations), which increased gross profit by $89.1 million, partially offset by the decrease in same-store new retail unit sales, which decreased gross profit by $70.4 million. We believe the increase in same-store comparative average gross profit per unit is attributed to increased customer demand and a lower supply of new vehicles available for sale, which has been caused by supply chain issues discussed above.

Units

Retail unit sales of used vehicles decreased from 2021 to 2022 due to a 7,788 unit, or 10.5%, decrease in same-store used retail unit sales, partially offset by a 3,074 unit increase from net dealership acquisitions. Our same-store units decreased 14.7% in the U.S. and decreased 6.7% internationally. Same-store retail units for our U.S. and U.K. CarShop used vehicle dealerships decreased 32.4% and increased 10.6%, respectively. Overall, our used units decreased 11.2% in the U.S. and decreased 1.9% internationally. We believe the decrease in same-store unit sales is primarily due to higher used unit prices attributable to lower overall vehicle inventory availability for sale, impacting the affordability of used vehicles for customers, which has been caused by supply chain issues discussed above.

Revenues

Used vehicle retail sales revenue increased from 2021 to 2022 due to a $98.3 million increase from net dealership acquisitions, partially offset by a $38.1 million, or 1.6%, decrease in same-store revenues. Excluding $139.3 million of unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations, same-store used retail revenue increased 4.4%. The decrease in same-store revenue is due to the decrease in same-store used retail unit sales, which decreased revenue by $242.9 million, partially offset by a $3,081 per unit increase in same-store comparative average selling price (including a $2,095 per unit decrease attributable to unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations), which increased revenue by $204.8 million. The average sales price per unit for our CarShop used vehicle dealerships increased 4.3% to $19,331. We believe the increase in same-store comparative average selling price is primarily due to consumers looking to acquire used vehicles to compensate for the lower supply of new vehicles available for sale, which has been caused by supply chain issues discussed above.

Gross Profit

Retail gross profit from used vehicle sales decreased from 2021 to 2022 due to a $44.6 million, or 23.1%, decrease in same-store gross profit, partially offset by a $5.7 million increase from net dealership acquisitions. Excluding $7.8 million of unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations, same-store gross profit decreased 19.0%. The decrease in same-store gross profit is due to a $367 per unit decrease in same-store comparative average gross profit (including a $118 per unit decrease

attributable to unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations), which decreased gross profit by $24.4 million, coupled with the decrease in same-store used retail unit sales, which decreased gross profit by $20.2 million. The average gross profit per unit for our CarShop used vehicle dealerships decreased 43.2% to $770. We believe the decrease in same-store comparative average gross profit per unit is primarily due to the increased cost of acquiring used vehicles resulting from the lower supply of new vehicles available for sale, which decreased our gross margin.

Finance and insurance revenue increased from 2021 to 2022 due to a $7.3 million increase from net dealership acquisitions, coupled with a $1.8 million, or 0.9%, increase in same-store revenues. Excluding $9.2 million of unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations, same-store finance and insurance revenue increased 5.2%. The increase in same-store revenue is due to a $347 per unit increase in same-store comparative average finance and insurance revenue (including an $84 per unit decrease attributable to unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations), which increased revenue by $38.0 million, partially offset by the decrease in same-store retail unit sales, which decreased revenue by $36.2 million. Finance and insurance revenue per unit increased 30.2% in the U.S. and increased 8.0% in the U.K. We believe the increase in same-store finance and insurance revenue per unit is primarily due to our efforts to increase finance and insurance penetration, which include implementing interactive digital customer sales platforms, additional training, and targeting underperforming locations, coupled with the increase in average selling price per unit of new and used vehicles. Changes in the sales mix from lower leasing and a higher amount of purchases have also driven higher product penetration rates.

Revenues

Service and parts revenue increased from 2021 to 2022, with an increase of 12.7% in the U.S. and an increase of 2.6% internationally. The increase in service and parts revenue is due to a $26.6 million increase from net dealership acquisitions, coupled with a $24.2 million, or 4.4%, increase in same-store revenues. Excluding $20.6 million of unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations, same-store revenue increased 8.2%. The increase in same-store revenue is due to a $35.1 million, or 9.0%, increase in customer pay revenue and a $3.6 million, or 11.2%, increase in vehicle preparation and body shop revenue, partially offset by a $14.5 million, or 11.6%, decrease in warranty revenue. We believe the increase in same-store service and parts revenue is related to increases in vehicle miles traveled compared to the same period last year, coupled with the prolonged reliance on older vehicles resulting from the limited supply of new vehicles, which generates additional service and parts revenues.

Units

Retail unit sales of new trucks increased from 2021 to 2022 due to a 315 unit increase from net dealership acquisitions, partially offset by a 98 unit, or 3.0%, decrease in same-store new retail unit sales. We believe the decrease in same-store unit sales is primarily due to a limited supply of new trucks available for sale, which has been caused by supply chain issues discussed above.

Revenues

New commercial truck retail sales revenue increased from 2021 to 2022 due to a $40.6 million increase from net dealership acquisitions, coupled with a $7.5 million, or 1.9%, increase in same-store revenues. The increase in same-store revenue is due to a $6,013 per unit increase in same-store comparative average selling price, which increased revenue by $19.3 million, partially offset by the decrease in same-store new retail unit sales, which decreased revenue by $11.8 million. We believe the increase in same-store comparative average selling price is due to increased customer demand and a limited supply of new trucks available for sale, which has been caused by supply chain issues discussed above.

Gross Profit

New commercial truck retail gross profit increased from 2021 to 2022 due to a $3.5 million, or 17.9%, increase in same-store gross profit, coupled with a $3.4 million increase from net dealership acquisitions. The increase in same-store gross profit is due to a $1,269 per unit increase in same-store comparative average gross profit, which increased gross profit by $4.1 million, partially offset by the decrease in same-store new retail unit sales, which decreased gross profit by $0.6 million. We believe the increase in same-store comparative average gross profit per unit is attributed to increased customer demand and a limited supply of new trucks available for sale, which has been caused by supply chain issues discussed above.

Units

Retail unit sales of used trucks decreased from 2021 to 2022 due to a 249 unit, or 29.9%, decrease in same-store retail unit sales, partially offset by a 60 unit increase from net dealership acquisitions. We believe the decrease in same-store unit sales is primarily due to a lower supply of new replacement trucks available for sale causing customers to use their existing trucks longer, which lower supply has been caused by supply chain issues discussed above, and higher used unit prices impacting the affordability of used trucks for customers.

Revenues

Used commercial truck retail sales revenue increased from 2021 to 2022 due to a $12.5 million, or 21.2%, increase in same-store revenues, coupled with a $7.2 million increase from net dealership acquisitions. The increase in same-store revenue is due to a $51,775 per unit increase in same-store comparative average selling price, which increased revenue by $30.2 million, partially offset by the decrease in same-store used retail unit sales, which decreased revenue by $17.7 million. We believe the increase in same-store comparative average selling price is primarily due to a limited supply of used trucks available for sale, which has been caused by supply chain issues discussed above.

Gross Profit

Used commercial truck retail gross profit decreased from 2021 to 2022 due to a $3.8 million, or 40.0%, decrease in same-store gross profit, partially offset by a $0.2 million increase from net dealership acquisitions. The decrease in same-store gross profit is due to the decrease in same-store used retail unit sales, which decreased gross profit by $2.9 million, coupled with a $1,531 per unit decrease in same-store comparative average gross profit, which decreased gross profit by $0.9 million. We believe the decrease in same-store comparative average gross profit per unit is primarily due to the increased cost of acquiring used trucks resulting from the lower supply of new trucks available for sale, which decreased our gross margin.

Revenues

Service and parts revenue increased from 2021 to 2022 due to a $36.1 million, or 23.0%, increase in same-store revenues, coupled with a $26.2 million increase from net dealership acquisitions. Customer pay work represented

Table of Contents

approximately 81.4% of PTG’s service and parts revenue, largely due to the significant amount of retail sales of parts and accessories. The increase in same-store revenue is due to a $30.9 million, or 24.8%, increase in customer pay revenue, a $5.1 million, or 20.5%, increase in warranty revenue, and a $0.1 million, or 1.5%, increase in body shop revenue. We believe the increase in same-store service and parts revenue is primarily due to prolonged reliance on older trucks resulting from the limited supply of new trucks, which generates additional service and parts revenues.

Gross Profit

Service and parts gross profit increased from 2021 to 2022 due to a $15.4 million, or 23.3%, increase in same-store gross profit, coupled with a $10.6 million increase from net dealership acquisitions. The increase in same-store gross profit is due to the increase in same-store revenues, which increased gross profit by $15.3 million, coupled with a 0.1% increase in same-store gross margin, which increased gross profit by $0.1 million. The increase in same-store gross profit is due to a $12.8 million, or 27.7%, increase in customer pay gross profit and a $2.6 million, or 18.3%, increase in warranty gross profit.

Penske Australia primarily distributes and services commercial vehicles, engines, and power systems. This business generated $140.9 million of revenue during the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $164.6 million of revenue in the prior year, a decrease of 14.4%. This business also generated $41.0 million of gross profit during the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $39.6 million of gross profit in the prior year, an increase of 3.5%.

Excluding $11.5 million of unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations, revenue decreased 7.4% primarily due to a decrease in commercial vehicle unit sales due to a limited supply of commercial vehicles available for sale, which we believe has been caused by supply chain issues discussed above. Excluding $3.3 million of unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations, gross profit increased 11.9% primarily due to an increase in commercial vehicle gross profit per unit and an increase in gross profit per unit in our power generation product lines.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) increased from 2021 to 2022 due to a $27.3 million, or 3.7%, increase in same-store SG&A, coupled with a $40.6 million increase from net acquisitions. Excluding $31.9 million of favorable foreign currency fluctuations, same-store SG&A increased 7.9%.

SG&A expenses as a percentage of total revenue was 11.8% and 10.7% in the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. We believe the increase in SG&A as a percentage of gross profit is primarily due to the inflationary effect on our personnel, rent, and other expenses.

We believe the overall increase is primarily due to increases in applicable rates, partially offset by decreases in amounts outstanding under floor plan arrangements as new vehicle inventory declined due to a lower supply of new vehicles available for sale, which has been caused by supply chain issues discussed above.

Equity in earnings of affiliates increased from 2021 to 2022 due to a $34.1 million, or 33.3%, increase in earnings from our investment in PTS, coupled with an increase in earnings from our retail automotive joint ventures which were partially offset by the decrease in equity earnings from our previous joint venture in Japan as we no longer include the results of this business in this line item due to our acquiring 100% of this joint venture. We believe the increase in our PTS equity earnings is due to strong demand and profitability for commercial rental trucks and full-service leasing, as well as used vehicle sales.

Same-store units decreased 22.5% in the U.S. and decreased 13.9% internationally. Overall, new unit sales decreased 19.2% in the U.S. and decreased 9.1% internationally. We believe the decrease in same-store unit sales is due to a lower supply of new vehicles available for sale, which has been caused by supply chain issues discussed above.

New vehicle retail sales revenue decreased from 2021 to 2022 due to a $571.3 million, or 11.0%, decrease in same-store revenues, partially offset by a $230.1 million increase from net dealership acquisitions. Excluding $128.1 million of unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations, same-store new retail revenue decreased 8.5%. The decrease in same-store revenue is due to the decrease in same-store new retail unit sales, which decreased revenue by $1,025.5 million, partially offset by a $5,238 per unit increase in same-store comparative average selling price (including a $1,480 per unit decrease attributable to unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations), which increased revenue by $454.2 million. We believe the increase in same-store comparative average selling price is due to increased customer demand and a lower supply of new vehicles available for sale, which has been caused by supply chain issues discussed above.

Overall, our used units decreased 8.7% in the U.S. and increased 13.2% internationally. We believe the increase in same-store unit sales in the U.K. is primarily due to the lifting of lockdown restrictions due to COVID-19 compared to the same period last year. We believe the decrease in same-store unit sales in the U.S. is primarily due to higher used unit prices attributable to lower overall vehicle inventory availability for sale, impacting the affordability of used vehicles for customers, which has been caused by supply chain issues discussed above.

Revenues

Used vehicle retail sales revenue increased from 2021 to 2022 due to a $489.3 million, or 11.9%, increase in same-store revenues, coupled with a $185.8 million increase from net dealership acquisitions. Excluding $181.0 million of unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations, same-store used retail revenue increased 16.3%. The increase in same-store revenue is due to a $4,346 per unit increase in same-store comparative average selling price (including a $1,374 per unit decrease attributable to unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations), which increased revenue by $572.6 million, partially offset by the decrease in same-store used retail unit sales, which decreased revenue by $83.3 million. The average sales price per unit for our CarShop used vehicle dealerships increased 12.6% to $20,498. We believe the increase in same-store comparative average selling price is primarily due to consumers looking to acquire used vehicles to compensate for the lower supply of new vehicles available for sale, which has been caused by supply chain issues discussed above.

Gross Profit

Retail gross profit from used vehicle sales increased from 2021 to 2022 due to a $10.9 million increase from net dealership acquisitions, partially offset by a $3.4 million, or 1.1%, decrease in same-store gross profit. Excluding $10.2 million of unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations, same-store gross profit increased 2.3%. The decrease in same-store gross profit is due to the decrease in same-store used retail unit sales, which decreased gross profit by $6.0 million, partially offset by a $20 per unit increase in same-store comparative average gross profit (including a $78 per unit decrease attributable to unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations), which increased gross profit by $2.6 million. The average gross

Finance and insurance revenue per unit increased 32.0% in the U.S. and increased 12.1% in the U.K. We believe the increase in same-store finance and insurance revenue per unit is primarily due to our efforts to increase finance and insurance penetration, which include implementing interactive digital customer sales platforms, additional training, and targeting underperforming locations, coupled with the increase in average selling price per unit of new and used vehicles. Changes in the sales mix from lower leasing and a higher amount of purchases have also driven higher product penetration rates.

We believe the increase in same-store unit sales is primarily due to higher demand from a stronger economy and the timing of deliveries from the vehicle manufacturers due to the backlog of orders delivered during the first quarter of 2022, which has been caused by the supply chain issues discussed above.

Revenues

New commercial truck retail sales revenue increased from 2021 to 2022 due to a $144.6 million increase from net dealership acquisitions, coupled with a $127.7 million, or 21.7%, increase in same-store revenues. The increase in same-store revenue is due to the increase in same-store new retail unit sales, which increased revenue by $103.9 million, coupled with a $4,823 per unit increase in same-store comparative average selling price, which increased revenue by $23.8 million. We believe the increase in same-store comparative average selling price is due to a limited supply of new trucks available for sale, which has been caused by supply chain issues discussed above.

The increase in same-store revenue is due to a $56,329 per unit increase in same-store comparative average selling price, which increased revenue by $65.7 million, partially offset by the decrease in same-store used retail unit sales, which decreased revenue by $31.2 million. We believe the increase in same-store comparative average selling price is primarily due to a limited supply of used trucks available for sale, which has been caused by supply chain issues discussed above.

Gross Profit

Used commercial truck retail gross profit increased from 2021 to 2022 due to a $4.0 million increase from net dealership acquisitions, coupled with a $1.9 million, or 12.3%, increase in same-store gross profit. The increase in same-store gross profit is due to a $5,513 per unit increase in same-store comparative average gross profit, which increased gross profit by $6.4 million, partially offset by the decrease in same-store used retail unit sales, which decreased gross profit by $4.5 million. We believe the increase in same-store comparative average gross profit per unit is primarily due to a limited supply of used trucks available for sale, which has been caused by supply chain issues discussed above.

Revenues

Service and parts revenue increased from 2021 to 2022 due to a $71.9 million increase from net dealership acquisitions, coupled with a $62.8 million, or 24.1%, increase in same-store revenues. Customer pay work represented approximately 81.2% of PTG’s service and parts revenue, largely due to the significant amount of retail sales of parts and

accessories. The increase in same-store revenue is due to a $55.4 million, or 26.8%, increase in customer pay revenue, a $6.7 million, or 15.5%, increase in warranty revenue, and a $0.7 million, or 6.4%, increase in body shop revenue. We believe the increase in same-store service and parts revenue is primarily due to prolonged reliance on older trucks resulting from the limited supply of new trucks, which generates additional service and parts revenues.

Gross Profit

Service and parts gross profit increased from 2021 to 2022 due to a $30.4 million increase from net dealership acquisitions, coupled with a $26.7 million, or 24.1%, increase in same-store gross profit. The increase in same-store gross profit is due to the increase in same-store revenues, which increased gross profit by $26.7 million. The increase in same-store gross profit is due to a $21.9 million, or 29.1%, increase in customer pay gross profit, a $3.8 million, or 15.4%, increase in warranty gross profit, and a $1.0 million, or 9.4%, increase in body shop gross profit.

Excluding $30.9 million of favorable foreign currency fluctuations, same-store SG&A increased 10.8%. The increase in SG&A expenses is

primarily due to the inflationary effect on our personnel, rent, and other expenses. SG&A as a percentage of gross profit was 65.4%, a decrease of 210 basis points compared to 67.5% in the prior year. SG&A expenses as a percentage of total revenue was 11.6% and 11.1% in the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. We believe the decrease in SG&A as a percentage of gross profit is comprised of increased gross profit across our various business lines.

Floor plan interest expense decreased from 2021 to 2022 due to a $1.6 million, or 9.4%, decrease in same-store floor plan interest expense, partially offset by a $0.7 million increase from net acquisitions. We believe the overall decrease is primarily due to decreases in amounts outstanding under floor plan arrangements as new vehicle inventory declined due to a lower supply of new vehicles available for sale, which has been caused by supply chain issues discussed above, partially offset by increases in applicable rates.

Equity in earnings of affiliates increased from 2021 to 2022 due to a $98.9 million, or 63.3%, increase in earnings from our investment in PTS, coupled with the increase in earnings from our retail automotive joint ventures which were partially offset by the decrease in equity earnings from our previous joint venture in Japan as we no longer include the results of this business in this line item due to our acquiring 100% of this joint venture. We believe the increase in our PTS equity earnings is due to strong demand and profitability for commercial rental trucks and full-service leasing, as well as used vehicle sales.

Income taxes	$	251.8	$	187.9	63.9	34.0	%

Income taxes increased from 2021 to 2022 primarily due to a $285.9 million increase in our pre-tax income compared to the prior year. Our effective tax rate was 25.3% during the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to 26.4% during the six months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to fluctuations in our geographic pre-tax income mix, coupled with the increase in net income tax expense in the prior year of $8.8 million related to U.K. tax legislation changes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our cash requirements are primarily for working capital, inventory financing, the acquisition of new businesses, the improvement and expansion of existing facilities, the purchase or construction of new facilities, debt service and repayments, dividends, and potential repurchases of our outstanding securities under the program discussed below. Historically, these cash requirements have been met through cash flow from operations, borrowings under our credit agreements and floor plan arrangements, the issuance of debt securities, sale-leaseback transactions, real estate financings, and dividends and distributions from joint venture investments.

We have historically expanded our operations through organic growth and the acquisition of dealerships and other businesses. We believe that cash flow from operations, dividends and distributions from PTS and our joint venture investments, and our existing capital resources, including the liquidity provided by our credit agreements and floor plan financing arrangements, will be sufficient to fund our existing operations and current commitments for at least the next twelve months. In the event that economic conditions are more severely impacted than we expect due to the COVID-19 pandemic or vehicle shortages resulting from supply chain difficulties, we pursue significant acquisitions or other expansion opportunities, pursue significant repurchases of our outstanding securities, or refinance or repay existing debt, we may need to raise additional capital either through the public or private issuance of equity or debt securities or through additional borrowings, which sources of funds may not necessarily be available on terms acceptable to us, if at all. In addition, our liquidity could be negatively impacted in the event we fail to comply with the covenants under our various financing and operating agreements or in the event our floor plan financing is withdrawn. Future events, including acquisitions, divestitures, new or revised operating lease agreements, borrowings or repayments under our credit agreements and our floor plan arrangements, raising capital, and purchases or refinancing of our securities, may also impact our liquidity.

We expect that scheduled payments of our debt instruments will be funded through cash flows from operations or borrowings under our credit agreements. In the case of payments upon the maturity or termination dates of our debt instruments, we currently expect to be able to refinance such instruments in the normal course of business or otherwise fund them from cash flows from operations or borrowings under our credit agreements. Refer to the disclosures provided in Part I, Item 1, Note 9 of the Notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements set forth below for a detailed description of our long-term debt obligations and scheduled interest payments.

Floor plan notes payable are revolving inventory-secured financing arrangements. Refer to the disclosures provided in Part I, Item 1, Note 7 of the Notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements for a detailed description of financing for the vehicles we purchase, including discussion of our floor plan and other revolving arrangements.

Refer to the disclosures provided in Part I, Item 1, Note 10 of the Notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of our off-balance sheet arrangements which includes a repurchase commitment related to our floor plan credit agreement with Mercedes Benz Financial Services Australia and Mercedes Benz Financial Services New Zealand.

As of June 30, 2022, we had $154.9 million of cash available to fund our operations and capital commitments. In addition, we had $800.0 million, £162.0 million ($197.3 million), AU $40.0 million ($27.6 million), and $142.8 million available for borrowing under our U.S. credit agreement, U.K. credit agreement, Australian working capital loan agreement, and the revolving mortgage facility through Toyota Motor Credit Corporation, respectively.

Securities Repurchases

From time to time, our Board of Directors has authorized securities repurchase programs pursuant to which we may, as market conditions warrant, purchase our outstanding common stock or debt on the open market, in privately negotiated transactions, via a tender offer, through a pre-arranged trading plan, pursuant to the terms of an accelerated share repurchase program, or by other means. We have historically funded any such repurchases using cash flow from operations, borrowings under our U.S. credit agreement, and borrowings under our U.S. floor plan arrangements. The decision to make repurchases will be based on factors such as general economic and industry conditions, the market price of the relevant security versus our view of its intrinsic value, the potential impact of such repurchases on our capital structure, and our consideration of any alternative uses of our capital, such as for acquisitions, the repayment of our existing indebtedness, and strategic investments in our current businesses, in addition to any then-existing limits imposed by our finance agreements and securities trading policy. In May 2022, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of $250 million worth of our securities, of which $167.9 million remained outstanding as of June 30, 2022. In July 2022, our Board of Directors increased the authority delegated to management to repurchase our outstanding securities by $250 million. As a result, $330.6 million remained outstanding and available for repurchases as of July 26, 2022. Refer to the disclosures provided in Part I, Item 1, Note 11 of the Notes to our Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for a summary of shares repurchased during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Dividends

We paid the following cash dividends on our common stock in 2021 and 2022:

We also announced a cash dividend of $0.53 per share payable on September 1, 2022 to stockholders of record on August 10, 2022. While future quarterly or other cash dividends will depend upon a variety of factors considered relevant by our Board of Directors, which may include our expectations regarding the severity and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, vehicle production issues, the rate of inflation, earnings, cash flow, capital requirements, restrictions relating to any then-existing indebtedness, financial condition, alternative uses of capital, and other factors, we currently expect to continue to pay comparable dividends in the future.

Refer to the disclosures provided in Part I, Item 1, Note 9 of the Notes to our Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for a detailed description of our long-term debt obligations.

Short-Term Borrowings

We have five principal sources of short-term borrowings: the revolving portion of the U.S. credit agreement, the revolving portion of the U.K. credit agreement, our Australian working capital loan agreement, the revolving mortgage facility through Toyota Motor Credit Corporation, and the floor plan agreements that we utilize to finance our vehicle inventories. We are also able to access availability under the floor plan agreements to fund our cash needs, including payments made relating to our higher interest rate revolving credit agreements.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, outstanding revolving commitments varied between $0.0 million and $168.0 million under the U.S. credit agreement, between £0.0 million and £42.0 million ($0.0 million and $51.1 million) under the U.K. credit agreement’s revolving credit line (excluding the overdraft facility), between AU $0.0 million and AU $15.0 million ($0.0 million and $10.4 million) under the Australia working capital loan agreement, and between $0.0 million and $177.8 million under the revolving mortgage facility through Toyota Motor Credit Corporation. The amounts outstanding under our floor plan agreements varied based on the timing of the receipt and expenditure of cash in our operations, driven principally by the levels of our vehicle inventories.

Interest Rate Swaps

The Company periodically uses interest rate swaps to manage interest rate risk associated with the Company’s variable rate floor plan debt. In April 2020, we entered into a five-year interest rate swap agreement pursuant to which the LIBOR portion of $300.0 million of our U.S. floating rate floor plan debt was fixed at 0.5875% This arrangement was in effect through April 2025. However, we terminated this arrangement in November 2021.

PTS Dividends

We hold a 28.9% ownership interest in PTS as noted above. Their partnership agreement requires PTS, subject to applicable law and the terms of its credit agreements, to make quarterly distributions to the partners with respect to each fiscal year by no later than 45 days after the end of each of the first three quarters of the year and by April 15 of the following year. PTS’ partnership agreement and certain of its debt agreements allow partner distributions only as long as it is not in default under those agreements and the amount it pays does not exceed 50% of its consolidated net income, unless its debt-to-equity ratio is less than 3.0 to 1, in which case its distributions may not exceed 80% of its consolidated net income. We receive pro rata cash distributions relating to this investment, typically in April, May, August, and November of each year. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, and 2021, we received $104.9 million and $55.1 million, respectively, of pro rata cash distributions relating to this investment. We currently expect to continue to receive future distributions from PTS quarterly, subject to its financial performance.

Table of Contents

Sale/Leaseback Arrangements

We have in the past and may in the future enter into sale-leaseback transactions to finance certain property acquisitions and capital expenditures, pursuant to which we sell property and/or leasehold improvements to third parties and agree to lease those assets back for a certain period of time. Such sales generate proceeds that vary from period to period.

Operating Leases

We estimate the total rent obligations under our operating leases, including any extension periods that we are reasonably certain to exercise at our discretion and assuming constant consumer price indices, to be $5.3 billion. As of June 30, 2022, we were in compliance with all financial covenants under these leases consisting principally of leases for dealership and other properties, and we believe we will remain in compliance with such covenants for the next twelve months. Refer to the disclosures provided in Part I, Item 1, Note 3 and Note 10 of the Notes to our Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for a description of our operating leases.

Supplemental Guarantor Financial Information

The following is a description of the terms and conditions of the guarantees with respect to senior subordinated notes of Penske Automotive Group, Inc. (“PAG”) as the issuer of the 3.50% Notes and the 3.75% Notes (collectively the “Senior Subordinated Notes”).

Each of the Senior Subordinated Notes are unsecured, senior subordinated obligations and are guaranteed on an unsecured senior subordinated basis by our 100% owned U.S. subsidiaries. Each of the Senior Subordinated Notes also contain customary negative covenants and events of default. If we experience certain “change of control” events specified in their respective indentures, holders of these Senior Subordinated Notes will have the option to require us to purchase for cash all or a portion of their Senior Subordinated Notes at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Senior Subordinated Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, if we make certain asset sales and do not reinvest the proceeds thereof or use such proceeds to repay certain debt, we will be required to use the proceeds of such asset sales to make an offer to purchase the Senior Subordinated Notes at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Senior Subordinated Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest.

Guarantor subsidiaries are directly or indirectly 100% owned by PAG, and the guarantees are full and unconditional and joint and several. The guarantees may be released under certain circumstances upon resale or transfer by us of the stock of the related guarantor or all or substantially all of the assets of the guarantor to a non-affiliate. Non-wholly owned and foreign subsidiaries of PAG do not guarantee the Senior Subordinated Notes (“Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries”). The following tables present summarized financial information for PAG and the Guarantor Subsidiaries on a combined basis. The financial information of PAG and Guarantor Subsidiaries is presented on a combined basis; intercompany balances and transactions between PAG and Guarantor Subsidiaries have been eliminated; PAG’s or Guarantor Subsidiaries’ amounts due from, amounts due to, and transactions with non-issuer and Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries and related parties are disclosed separately.

Cash Flows from Continuing Operating Activities

Cash flows from continuing operating activities includes net income, as adjusted for non-cash items and the effects of changes in working capital.

We finance substantially all of the commercial vehicles we purchase for distribution, new vehicles for retail sale, and a portion of our used vehicle inventories for retail sale under floor plan and other revolving arrangements with various lenders, including the captive finance companies associated with automotive manufacturers. We retain the right to select which, if any, financing source to utilize in connection with the procurement of vehicle inventories. Many vehicle manufacturers provide vehicle financing for the dealers representing their brands; however, it is not a requirement that we utilize this financing. Historically, our floor plan finance source has been based on aggregate pricing considerations.

In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles relating to the statement of cash flows, we report all cash flows arising in connection with floor plan notes payable with the manufacturer of a particular new vehicle as an operating activity in our statement of cash flows, and we report all cash flows arising in connection with floor plan notes payable to a party other than the manufacturer of a particular new vehicle, all floor plan notes payable relating to pre-owned vehicles, and all floor plan notes payable related to our commercial vehicles in Australia and New Zealand as a financing activity in our statement of cash flows. Currently, the majority of our non-trade vehicle financing is with other manufacturer captive lenders. To date, we have not experienced any material limitation with respect to the amount or availability of financing from any institution providing us vehicle financing.

We believe that changes in aggregate floor plan liabilities are typically linked to changes in vehicle inventory and therefore, are an integral part of understanding changes in our working capital and operating cash flow. As a result, we prepare the following reconciliation to highlight our operating cash flows with all changes in vehicle floor plan being

Cash Flows from Continuing Investing Activities

Cash flows from continuing investing activities consist primarily of cash used for capital expenditures, proceeds from the sale of dealerships, proceeds from the sale of property and equipment, and net expenditures for acquisitions and other investments. Capital expenditures were $138.1 million and $90.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Capital expenditures relate primarily to improvements to our existing dealership facilities, the construction of new facilities, the acquisition of the property or buildings associated with existing leased facilities, and the acquisition of land for future development. We currently expect to finance our capital expenditures with operating cash flows or borrowings under our credit agreements. We had no proceeds from the sale of dealerships during the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $4.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021. Proceeds from the sale of property and equipment were $11.4 million and $31.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Cash used in acquisitions and other investments, net of cash acquired, was $225.9 million and 278.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and included cash used to repay sellers’ floor plan liabilities in such business acquisitions of $51.3 million and $24.3 million, respectively.

Cyclicality

Unit sales of motor vehicles, particularly new vehicles, have been cyclical historically, fluctuating with general economic cycles. During economic downturns, the automotive and truck retailing industries tend to experience periods of decline and recession similar to those experienced by the general economy. We believe that these industries are influenced by general economic conditions and particularly, by consumer confidence, the level of personal discretionary spending, the rate of inflation, fuel prices, interest rates, and credit availability.

Our business is dependent on a number of factors, including general economic conditions, the availability of vehicle inventory, fuel prices, the rate of inflation, interest rate fluctuations, credit availability, labor availability, environmental and other government regulations, and customer business cycles. U.S. light vehicle sales have ranged from a low of 10.4 million units in 2009 to a high of 17.5 million units in 2016. Unit sales of new commercial vehicles have historically been subject to substantial cyclical variation based on these general economic conditions. According to data published by ACT Research, in recent years, total U.S. retail sales of new Class 8 commercial vehicles have ranged from a low of approximately 97,000 in 2009 to a high of approximately 334,000 in 2019. Through geographic diversification, concentration on higher margin regular service and parts revenues, and diversification of our customer base, we have attempted to reduce the negative impact of adverse general economic conditions or cyclical trends affecting any one industry or geographic area on our earnings.

Seasonality

Retail Automotive Dealership. Our business is modestly seasonal overall. Our U.S. operations generally experience higher volumes of vehicle sales in the second and third quarters of each year due in part to consumer buying trends and the introduction of new vehicle models. Also, vehicle demand, and to a lesser extent demand for service and parts, is generally lower during the winter months than in other seasons, particularly in regions of the U.S. where dealerships may be subject

Table of Contents

to severe winters. Our U.K. operations generally experience higher volumes of new vehicle sales in the first and third quarters of each year, due primarily to new vehicle registration practices in the U.K.

Inflation

Many of our market countries are experiencing a high rate of inflation. Inflation affects the price of vehicles, the price of parts, the rate of pay of our employees, and consumer demand. Used vehicle prices in particular have experienced a higher rate of inflation recently, and continued higher rates of inflation may adversely affect consumer demand and increase our costs, which may materially and adversely affect us.

Important factors that could cause actual results to

Table of Contents

differ materially from our expectations include the following:

•we depend on the success, popularity and availability of the brands we sell, and adverse conditions affecting one or more of these vehicle manufacturers, including the adverse impact on the vehicle and parts supply chain due to natural disasters, the shortage of microchips or other components, the COVID-19 pandemic, the war in Ukraine, or other disruptions that interrupt the supply of vehicles and parts to us may negatively impact our revenues and profitability;

•our business and the automotive retail and commercial vehicles industries in general are susceptible to adverse economic and geo-political conditions, including changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, customer demand, customer confidence, the rate of inflation, fuel prices, unemployment rates and credit availability;

•increased tariffs, import product restrictions, and foreign trade risks that may impair our ability to sell foreign vehicles profitably;

•the number of new and used vehicles sold in our markets, which impacts our ability to generate new and used vehicle gross profit;

•the effect on our businesses of the changing retail environment due to certain manufacturers selling direct to consumers outside the franchise system, changes to an agency model of distribution in the U.K and Europe which will negatively impact revenues, reduce SG&A costs, and reduce floor plan interest expense (although other impacts to our results of operations remain uncertain), and the growing number of electric vehicles;

•the effect on our businesses of the new mobility technologies such as shared vehicle services, such as Uber and Lyft, and the eventual availability of driverless vehicles;

•vehicle manufacturers exercise significant control over our operations, and we depend on them and the continuation of our franchise and distribution agreements in order to operate our business;

•we are subject to the risk that a substantial number of our new or used inventory may be unavailable due to recall or other reasons;

•the success of our commercial vehicle distribution operations and engine and power systems distribution operations depends upon continued availability of the vehicles, engines, power systems, and other parts we distribute, demand for those vehicles, engines, power systems, and parts and general economic conditions in those markets;

•a restructuring of any significant vehicle manufacturer or supplier;

•our operations may be affected by severe weather or other periodic business interruptions;

•we have substantial risk of loss not covered by insurance;

•we may not be able to satisfy our capital requirements for acquisitions, facility renovation projects, financing the purchase of our inventory, or refinancing of our debt when it becomes due;

•our level of indebtedness may limit our ability to obtain financing generally and may require that a significant portion of our cash flow be used for debt service;

•non-compliance with the financial ratios and other covenants under our credit agreements and operating leases;

•higher interest rates may significantly increase our variable rate interest costs and because many customers finance their vehicle purchases, decrease vehicle sales;

•our operations outside of the U.S. subject our profitability to fluctuations relating to changes in foreign currency values;

•with respect to PTS, changes in the financial health of its customers, labor strikes or work stoppages by its employees, a reduction in PTS’ asset utilization rates, continued availability from truck manufacturers and suppliers of vehicles and parts for its fleet, changes in values of used trucks which affects PTS’ profitability on

Table of Contents

truck sales, compliance costs in regard to its trucking fleet and truck drivers, its ability to retain qualified drivers and technicians, risks associated with its participation in multi-employer pension plans, conditions in the capital markets to assure PTS’ continued availability of capital to purchase trucks, the effect of changes in lease accounting rules on PTS customers’ purchase/lease decisions, and industry competition, each of which could impact distributions to us;

•we are dependent on continued security and availability of our information technology systems, which systems are increasingly threatened by ransomware and other cyberattacks, and we may be subject to fines, penalties, and other costs under applicable privacy laws if we do not maintain our confidential customer and employee information properly;

•if we lose key personnel, especially our Chief Executive Officer, or are unable to attract additional qualified personnel;

•new or enhanced regulations relating to automobile dealerships including those enacted in certain European countries, Washington, California, Massachusetts, and New York banning the sale of new vehicles with gasoline engines (with regulations in Europe and Washington starting as early as 2030);

•changes in tax, financial or regulatory rules, or requirements;

•we could be subject to legal and administrative proceedings which, if the outcomes are adverse to us, could have a material adverse effect on our business;

•if state dealer laws in the U.S. are repealed or weakened or new manufacturers such as those selling electric vehicles are able to conduct significant vehicle sales outside of the franchised automotive system, our automotive dealerships may be subject to increased competition and may be more susceptible to termination, non-renewal, or renegotiation of their franchise agreements;

•some of our directors and officers may have conflicts of interest with respect to certain related party transactions and other business interests; and

•shares of our common stock eligible for future sale may cause the market price of our common stock to drop significantly, even if our business is doing well.

We urge you to carefully consider these risk factors and further information identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, and our other periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in evaluating all forward-looking statements regarding our business. Readers of this report are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements contained in this report. All forward-looking statements attributable to us are qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement. Except to the extent required by the federal securities laws and the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and regulations, we have no intention or obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

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 variable rates based on a margin over defined LIBOR, SONIA, the Bank of England Base Rate, or the Australian Bank Bill Swap Rate. Based on an average of the aggregate amounts outstanding under these facilities during the six months ended June 30, 2022, a 100-basis-point change in interest rates would result in an approximate $0.9 million change to our annual other interest expense.

Similarly, amounts outstanding under floor plan financing arrangements bear interest at a variable rate based on a margin over the prime rate, defined LIBOR, the Finance House Base Rate, the Euro Interbank Offered Rate, the Canadian Prime Rate, the Australian Bank Bill Swap Rate, or the New Zealand Bank Bill Benchmark Rate. Based on an average of the aggregate amounts outstanding under our floor plan financing arrangements subject to variable interest payments during the six months ended June 30, 2022, a 100-basis-point change in interest rates would result in an approximate $19.4 million change to our annual floor plan interest expense.

We evaluate our exposure to interest rate fluctuations and follow established policies and procedures to implement strategies designed to manage the amount of variable rate indebtedness outstanding at any point in time in an effort to

Table of Contents

mitigate the effect of interest rate fluctuations on our earnings and cash flows. These policies include:

•the maintenance of our overall debt portfolio with fixed and variable rate components;

•the use of authorized derivative instruments;

•the prohibition of using derivatives for trading or other speculative purposes; and

•the prohibition of highly leveraged derivatives, derivatives which we are unable to reliably value, or derivatives which we are unable to obtain a market quotation.

Interest rate fluctuations affect the fair market value of our fixed rate debt, including our swaps, mortgages, and certain seller financed promissory notes but with respect to such fixed rate debt instruments, do not impact our earnings or cash flows.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rates. As of June 30, 2022, 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 $561.9 million change to our revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

We purchase certain of our new vehicles, parts, and other products from non-U.S. manufacturers. Although we purchase the majority of our inventories in the local functional currency, our business is subject to certain risks, including, but not limited to, differing economic conditions, changes in political climate, differing tax structures, changes in tax and tariff rates, other regulations and restrictions, and foreign currency exchange rate volatility, which may influence such manufacturers’ ability to provide their products at competitive prices in the local jurisdictions. Our future results could be materially and adversely impacted by changes in these or other factors.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the principal executive and financial officers, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and financial officers, to allow timely discussions regarding required disclosure.

Based upon this evaluation, our principal executive and financial officers concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report. In addition, we maintain internal controls designed to provide us with the information required for accounting and financial reporting purposes. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the most recent quarter that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are involved in litigation which may relate to claims brought by governmental authorities, customers, vendors, or employees, including class action claims and purported class action claims. We are not a party to any legal proceedings, including class action lawsuits, that individually or in the aggregate are reasonably expected to have a material effect on us. However, the results of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, and an unfavorable resolution of one or more of these matters could have a material adverse effect.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, we repurchased 1,514,667 shares of our common stock for $156.2 million, or an average of $103.14 per share, under our securities repurchase program approved by our Board of Directors. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we repurchased 2,718,116 shares of our outstanding common stock for $275.4 million, or an average of $101.34 per share, under this program. In May 2022, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of $250 million worth of our securities, of which $167.9 million remained outstanding as of June 30, 2022. In July 2022, our Board of Directors further increased the authority delegated to management to repurchase our outstanding securities by $250 million. As a result, $330.6 million remained outstanding and available for repurchases as of July 26, 2022. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, we acquired 148,440 shares of our common stock for $17.2 million, or an average of $115.97 per share, from employees in connection with a net share settlement feature of employee equity awards.
