Rush Enterprises, Inc., headquartered in San Antonio, Texas, operates the largest network of commercial vehicle dealerships in North America, offering a comprehensive range of services from sales and leasing to parts and maintenance.
In its latest earnings report, Rush Enterprises announced an annual revenue of $7.8 billion for 2024, with a net income of $304.2 million. Despite challenges such as high interest rates and a freight recession, the company managed to declare a cash dividend of $0.18 per share for its Class A and B stocks.
The company’s revenue for the fourth quarter of 2024 was $2.0 billion, slightly down from the previous year. Key highlights include strong performance in Class 4-7 truck sales, despite a decline in Class 8 truck sales due to weak demand from over-the-road carriers. The aftermarket services also faced challenges, with a slight decline in parts revenue, although service and body shop revenues saw an increase.
Rush Enterprises anticipates continued challenges in the first half of 2025 but remains optimistic about a recovery in the freight market and retail sales of new Class 8 trucks in the latter half of the year. The company is also focused on expanding its medium-duty market share and believes its strategic initiatives will help outperform the market.
Overall, the company’s strategic initiatives and diversified customer base have helped mitigate the impact of economic uncertainties, and management remains committed to delivering value to shareholders while maintaining a strong financial position.
