This morning, PAG posted Q1 adjusted EPS of $3.05 vs. $3.59 (-15%), ahead of the $2.88 consensus. The beat was driven by a stronger-than-expected top line, as revenue fell 1.1% to $7.86B ($150M ahead of consensus) and gross margin contracted 10 bps to 16.5% (10 bps short of consensus). While we continue to view the stock's valuation as full and prefer other names in the auto dealership space, currency has provided a significant earnings tailwind for PAG given its significant international exposure, allowing it to exceed Street expectations. Additionally, the company continues to return cash to shareholders in the form of buybacks and dividends, helping support EPS amid demand-related headwinds.
