Earnings Call Sentiment|Negative
While CarMax has made strides with initiatives like SG&A reductions, the 'Wanna Drive' campaign, and CAF expansion, the quarter faced significant challenges such as declining sales, unit volumes, and profitability issues. The results were further impacted by inventory mismatches and increased provisions for loan losses. Despite the strategic initiatives in place, the financial performance has been negatively affected, suggesting a cautious outlook.
Company Guidance
During the CarMax second quarter fiscal year 2026 earnings call, several key metrics and guidance points were discussed. CarMax reported total sales of $6.6 billion, a 6% decline from the previous year, with retail unit sales down by 5.4%. The average selling price was $26,000, showing a year-over-year decrease of $250 per unit. The company plans to reduce SG&A expenses by at least $150 million over the next 18 months. CarMax Auto Finance originated over $2 billion, achieving a sales penetration of 42.6%, with a weighted average contract rate of 11.2%. Despite these challenges, CarMax is committed to gaining market share and expects high teen EPS growth with mid-single-digit retail unit growth in the future.
SG&A Reductions Initiative
CarMax plans to deliver incremental SG&A reductions of at least $150 million over the next eighteen months by leveraging technology and improving efficiencies.
