Sonic Automotive stock was trading at USD 62.30 on the NYSE at 3:41 p.m. ET on September 24, 2026, down 0.10 percent from the prior close. The company reported USD 3.9 billion in Q2 2026 revenue, giving investors a fresh look at demand and margins.
Revenue rises as earnings beat
According to Sonic Automotive, the quarter ended June 30, 2026, produced reported net income of USD 57.4 million and adjusted net income of USD 58.3 million. Adjusted earnings per diluted share reached USD 1.82, above the USD 1.75 consensus cited by MarketBeat.
The comparison is important because adjusted EPS was USD 1.82 against USD 2.19 in the year-earlier quarter, according to InsiderMonkey. Revenue growth therefore came with pressure on per-share profitability, a tradeoff that makes the companys operating mix especially relevant.
EchoPark adds a growth counterweight
EchoPark generated USD 582.9 million in Q2 revenue, while retail unit sales increased 17 percent year over year to 19,601, according to Sonic Automotives investor-relations page. Yet EchoPark segment income fell 38 percent to USD 7.2 million, showing that higher volume did not translate into equal profit growth.
Powersports provided another expansion channel, with Q2 revenue of USD 73.5 million and revenue growth of 53 percent year over year, according to InsiderMonkey. The franchised business grew revenue 2 percent, but new vehicle gross profit per unit fell 16 percent to USD 2,872, illustrating the margin pressure across the core dealership operation.
