The earnings call reflected both progress and challenges. The cost transformation and growth in the Collision business were notable achievements. However, the revenue decline, adjusted EBITDA decrease, and delays in U.S. dealership sales closure presented significant challenges.

Company Guidance

During AutoCanada's third-quarter 2025 conference call, Interim CEO Samuel Cochrane outlined key financial metrics and strategic guidance. The company reported revenue from continuing operations of $1.2 billion, a decline from $1.4 billion in the prior year, primarily due to softer performance in new and used vehicle sales and ongoing store restructuring. Adjusted EBITDA was $58.1 million, down from $63.1 million, although margins improved to 4.8%. AutoCanada achieved $100 million of its $115 million annual cost-saving target, attributed to headcount optimization and tighter expense management. The Collision business was a bright spot, with revenue growing 19% year-over-year. The company is progressing with the sale of U.S. dealerships, expecting total proceeds of $130 million to reduce debt. As of the quarter's end, the net funded debt-to-EBITDA ratio was 3.4x, trending toward a long-term target of 2 to 3x. Looking ahead, AutoCanada is focused on operational excellence, cost reductions, and profitable growth, with plans to expand both dealership and Collision operations.

Cost Transformation Achievements

As of September 30, AutoCanada achieved approximately $100 million of the $115 million 2025 annual run rate savings target through headcount optimization, tighter expense and inventory management, and process improvements.

Collision Business Growth

Collision revenue grew 19% year-over-year, driven by higher demand, new OEM certifications, and increased insurance referral activity.

Progress on U.S. Dealership Sales

AutoCanada received approximately $37 million in proceeds from U.S. dealership sales, with another $12 million expected to close before year-end. Total anticipated proceeds are around $130 million, near the top end of the previously stated range.

Leadership Changes and Strategic Focus

The company announced leadership promotions to strengthen its operational foundation, with a focus on expanding gross profit across a leaner, more durable cost base.
