Results of Operations and Financial Condition. On October 28, 2026, we issued a press release announcing our third quarter 2026 financial results and other information. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1.
Why it matters: The $212-per-share cash deal depends on shareholder votes and regulatory clearance. A delay or failed vote could block the take-private deal.
Watch forShareholders who are not tied to the deal approve it. Required regulators approve it, and the merger closes by the end of Q1 2027.
Also watch forShareholders reject the deal, a required approval is denied, or the merger agreement ends. The deal closes after Q1 2027.
Why it matters: The announced $1.46 dividend is due before the planned deal close. A change to the payment or deal terms could affect this cash payment.
Watch forPAG pays $1.46 per share on December 1 to holders of record on November 13, with no announced change.
Also watch forPAG changes, delays, or cancels the $1.46 dividend, or the deal closes before the stated payment date.
Why it matters: Both measures fell from Q2 to Q3. More declines would point to weaker profit per vehicle sold.
Worry ifNew or used vehicle gross profit per unit falls again from Q3 levels in the next reported quarter.
Less concerning ifBoth new and used vehicle gross profit per unit rise from Q3 levels in the next reported quarter.
