CEO Commentary:

“We are very pleased to report record revenues and profitability this quarter,” said Bill Nash, president and chief executive officer. “The talent and commitment of our associates as well as the diversity of our business model allowed us to capitalize on the improved market environment to deliver a record quarter.”

“In addition to our strong financial performance, we also completed the roll out of our omni-channel offerings,” added Nash. “Consumers want to customize their own journey, and CarMax gives its customers the option to seamlessly do as much, or as little, online and in-person as they want. No other used car retailer is in the position to deliver this iconic experience the way CarMax can.”

Nash concluded by stating, “I am confident our omni-channel experience, which gives us the largest addressable market within the used car industry, and our diversified business model will drive profitable sales growth and market share gains for years to come.”

Second Quarter Business Performance Review:

Sales. Total used vehicle unit sales increased 3.9%, including a 1.2% increase in comparable store used unit sales compared with the prior year’s second quarter. Positive comparable used unit sales in both July and August more than offset the high single digit negative comps experienced in June. Comparable store sales performance reflected strong conversion, continued support from financing, growth in web initiated selling opportunities, and solid execution by our associates in our stores and our customer experience centers. A strengthening used car selling environment also benefited the quarter, and though inventory was a headwind to sales, we returned to targeted inventory levels in September.

Total wholesale vehicle unit sales increased 5.1% compared with the second quarter of fiscal 2020. Our wholesale sales benefited from a record appraisal buy rate, partially offset by lower appraisal traffic. Additionally, wholesale unit sales benefited from an extra auction day in the quarter.

Other sales and revenues declined 7.2% compared with the second quarter of fiscal 2020, reflecting a decrease in other revenues and an increase in net third-party finance fees, partially offset by growth in extended protection plan (EPP) net revenues. EPP revenues grew 5.4% largely due to our growth in used unit sales. In addition, we recognized $8.2 million in EPP profit sharing revenue in the current quarter compared with $6.5 million recognized in the prior year’s second quarter.

Gross Profit. Total gross profit increased 8.5% versus last year’s second quarter to $752.1 million. Used vehicle gross profit rose 5.4%, reflecting the increase in total used unit sales and strong execution, which contributed to used vehicle gross profit per unit of $2,214 compared with $2,183 in the prior year’s quarter. Wholesale vehicle gross profit increased 23.0% versus the prior year’s quarter. The wholesale profit growth reflected the increased volume, robust appreciation in the market, and execution by our teams. These factors drove wholesale vehicle gross profit to $1,086 per unit from $928 in the prior year quarter. By the end of the quarter, depreciation had returned to the market. Other gross profit increased 5.8%, reflecting increases in EPP revenues and service department profits, somewhat offset by the increase in net third-party finance fees for the quarter.

SG&A. Compared with the second quarter of fiscal 2020, SG&A expenses increased 2.0% to $490.2 million. SG&A per used unit was $2,256, down $44 year-over-year. Factors leading to the increase included (i) the 7% increase in our store base since the beginning of last year’s second quarter (representing the addition of 14 stores); (ii) a $12.4 million increase in stock-based compensation expense; (iii) a 7.7% increase in advertising expenses; and (iv) continued spend in omni-channel and core strategic initiatives. SG&A leverage in the quarter was primarily due to the actions taken during the early stages of the Coronavirus pandemic, including aligning staffing and other overhead costs to the business and pausing our store expansion. Lower self-insured loss and litigation-related expenses also contributed to SG&A leverage in the quarter.

CarMax Auto Finance.(1) Compared with last year’s second quarter, CAF income increased 29.0% to $147.2 million, primarily reflecting a decrease in the provision for loan losses to $26.0 million from $45.5 million in the prior year quarter, plus an increase in net interest margin and average managed receivables. Our loan loss experience in the second quarter was favorable to the expectations we set at the end of the first quarter, which resulted in the lower provision. As of August 31, 2020, the allowance for loan losses of $432.5 million was 3.23% of ending managed receivables, down from 3.32% as of May 31, 2020.

CAF’s total interest margin percentage, which represents the spread between interest and fees charged to consumers and our funding costs, improved to 6.0% of average managed receivables from 5.7% in the prior year’s second quarter, due to lower funding costs. After the effect of 3-day payoffs, CAF financed 42.6% of units sold in the current quarter, slightly up from 42.2% in the prior year’s second quarter.

Share Repurchase Activity. We paused our share repurchase program during the first quarter, and no shares were purchased during the second quarter of fiscal 2021. As of August 31, 2020, we had $1.51 billion remaining available for repurchase under the outstanding authorization.

Revolving Credit Facility. Subsequent to the end of the second quarter, we paid down the outstanding $575.8 million balance on our revolver with cash on hand.

Store Openings. In the first quarter of fiscal 2021, we paused our store expansion strategy. We are resuming new store growth and anticipate opening between 8 and 10 stores in fiscal 2022.

Although CAF benefits from certain indirect overhead expenditures, we have not allocated indirect costs to CAF to avoid making subjective allocation decisions.

  • Significant changes in prices of new and used vehicles.
  • Changes in economic conditions or other factors that result in greater credit losses for CAF’s portfolio of auto loans receivable than anticipated.
  • A reduction in the availability of or access to sources of inventory or a failure to expeditiously liquidate inventory.
  • Changes in consumer credit availability provided by our third-party finance providers.
  • Changes in the availability of extended protection plan products from third-party providers.
  • Factors related to the regulatory and legislative environment in which we operate.
  • Factors related to geographic and sales growth, including the inability to effectively manage our growth.
  • The failure of or inability to sufficiently enhance key information systems.
  • The performance of the third-party vendors we rely on for key components of our business.
  • The effect of various litigation matters.
  • Adverse conditions affecting one or more automotive manufacturers, and manufacturer recalls.
  • The failure or inability to realize the benefits associated with our strategic investments.
  • The inaccuracy of estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of our financial statements, or the effect of new accounting requirements or changes to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
  • The volatility in the market price for our common stock.
  • The failure or inability to adequately protect our intellectual property.
  • The occurrence of severe weather events.
