Rush Enterprises, Inc., a leading provider of commercial vehicle solutions, operates the largest network of commercial vehicle dealerships in North America, offering a comprehensive range of services from sales to aftermarket support. In the second quarter of 2025, Rush Enterprises reported revenues of $1.9 billion and a net income of $72.4 million, with earnings per diluted share at $0.90. Despite challenging market conditions, the company declared a cash dividend of $0.19 per share, marking a 5.6% increase from the previous quarter.
The company’s financial performance was impacted by ongoing economic uncertainties and a freight recession, which led to a decline in new vehicle sales. However, aftermarket products and services showed resilience, contributing significantly to the gross profit. The absorption ratio improved slightly to 135.5%, indicating efficient cost management. The company also saw growth in medium-duty commercial vehicle sales, driven by strong demand in the lease and rental segment.
Rush Enterprises’ leasing and rental operations reported record revenues, with a 6.3% increase compared to the previous year. The company continues to focus on operational efficiency and strategic priorities, which have helped mitigate some of the adverse effects of the current market environment. The stock repurchase program was expanded, and significant repurchases were made during the quarter, reflecting the company’s commitment to returning value to shareholders.
Looking ahead, Rush Enterprises remains cautious about the economic and regulatory landscape, particularly concerning U.S. trade policies and engine emissions regulations. While the company does not anticipate a significant recovery in the freight market in the near term, it is optimistic about potential order activity later in the year, provided there is greater clarity in trade and regulatory matters. The company is well-positioned to capitalize on opportunities as market conditions evolve.
