AutoCanada ( (TSE:ACQ) ) has issued an update.
AutoCanada reported fourth-quarter 2025 revenue from continuing operations of $1.12 billion, down 11.8% year over year, with gross profit, adjusted EBITDA and per-unit margins all declining amid softer demand and normalizing vehicle pricing. The company posted a small net loss from continuing operations and a narrower loss from discontinued operations, while its total net funded debt to Bank EBITDA ratio inched up to 3.44 times.
Management said results reflected a tougher market following the pull-forward impact of expiring Canadian EV tax credits and tariff-related policy changes, combined with affordability pressures and lower industry gross profit per unit. AutoCanada also cited temporary operational disruption from a major cost-transformation and leadership transition, having achieved about $115 million in annualized cost savings, and outlined 2026 priorities focused on stabilizing retail performance, expanding its collision business, and sustaining a lean cost structure.
The most recent analyst rating on (TSE:ACQ) stock is a Hold with a C$28.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on AutoCanada stock, see the TSE:ACQ Stock Forecast page.
