Lithia Motors, Inc. (NYSE: LAD) today reported 2010 third quarter
net income from continuing operations of $0.37 per diluted share.
This compares to a 2009 adjusted third quarter net income from
continuing operations of $0.40 per diluted share. The results
include 23% more shares outstanding in 2010 compared to 2009
primarily due to the equity offering at the end of 2009. Third
quarter 2010 revenue from continuing operations increased 15% to
$582.7 million, compared to $508.0 million in the year-ago period,
mainly driven by improved vehicle sales.
Third Quarter Operating Highlights:
- Total same store sales increased 12%, including increases of 8%
in new vehicle sales and 2.5% in service, body and parts sales
- Same store used vehicle retail sales increased 20% and the used
retail to new vehicle unit sales ratio was 1.05 : 1
- Selling, general & administrative costs as a percent of
gross profit was 74%, an improvement of 70 basis points over the
prior year
- Repurchased approximately 100,000 shares in the quarter
- Unfinanced new vehicle inventory totaled $65.2 million at the
end of the quarter, an increase of $33.6 million from June 30,
2010
Sid DeBoer, Lithia's Chairman and CEO, commented, "Our continued
focus on operations and improving our performance in all business
lines is evident in our third quarter results. Despite a difficult
comparison due to the Cash for Clunkers program last year, we grew
same store sales in all categories. Lithia's store leaders are
responding to our customers' needs and local competition quickly
and decisively. Our information systems and centralized
administrative processes allow our team more time to do what they
do best -- service our customers."
As shown in the attached reconciliation table, the 2009 third
quarter adjusted results from continuing operations exclude
non-core charges of $(0.07) per share on asset impairments.

quarter of 2009 was $7.0 million, or $0.33 per diluted share.

diluted share, compared to net income from continuing operations of

release includes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of
the "Safe-Harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation

shareholders. Forward-looking statements in this press release
include our guidance regarding fourth quarter and full year 2010

to utilize our information systems and the leverage produced by our

These statements are necessarily subject to risk and uncertainty
and actual results could differ materially due to certain risk
factors, including without limitation, future economic conditions

Non-GAAP Financial Measures This press
release and the attached financial tables contain certain non-GAAP
financial measures as defined under SEC rules, such as adjusted net
income and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations,
adjusted SG&A as a percentage of revenues and gross profit,
adjusted operating margin, adjusted operating profit as a
percentage of gross profit and adjusted pre-tax margin adjusted to
exclude certain items disclosed in the attached financial tables.
Cash flows from operations were adjusted to include the change in

related to vehicle financing. As required by SEC rules, the Company
has provided reconciliations of these measures to the most directly
comparable GAAP measures, which are set forth in the attachments to
this release. The Company believes that each of the foregoing
non-GAAP financial measures improves the transparency of the
Company's disclosure, provides a meaningful presentation of the
Company's results from its core business operations excluding
adjustments for items not related to the Company's ongoing core
business operations or other non-cash adjustments, and improves the
period-to-period comparability of the Company's results from its
core business operations. These presentations are not intended to
