Briefing

Reported third quarter financial results, impacted by lower volumes but showing growth in digital dealer-to-dealer segment.

KAR Auction Services, Inc. reported a decrease in total revenue by 10% compared to the same quarter last year, alongside a net loss, primarily due to lower volumes throughout the wholesale remarketing industry and a reduction in unrealized gains on investments.

  • Total revenue decreased by 10% year-over-year to $535.2 million.
  • Net loss was $1.0 million, compared to a net income of $47.1 million in the third quarter of 2020.
  • Adjusted EBITDA was $96.6 million, down from $139.2 million in the same period last year.
