AutoCanada ( (TSE:ACQ) ) has provided an update.

AutoCanada has acquired Modern Autobody, a long-established Edmonton collision and refinish repair facility, in a move that expands its collision repair footprint and strengthens its luxury and electric vehicle certification coverage in the region. The strategically located shop, which holds an extensive suite of OEM certifications from brands such as Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Tesla, Porsche and Rivian, is expected to generate operational synergies with nearby AutoCanada collision centres and dealerships, while the absence of existing direct repair programs offers an immediate opportunity to build insurer partnerships, increase repair volumes and capture additional revenue through the company’s existing insurance relationships.

The most recent analyst rating on (TSE:ACQ) stock is a Hold with a C$24.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on AutoCanada stock, see the TSE:ACQ Stock Forecast page.
