1. Interim Financial Statements

Basis of Presentation

The following unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements of Penske Automotive Group, Inc. (the “Company”) have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and disclosures normally included in the Company’s annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the SEC rules and regulations. The information presented as of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006 and for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 is unaudited, but includes all adjustments which the management of the Company believes to be necessary for the fair presentation of results for the periods presented. The consolidated condensed financial statements for prior periods have been revised for entities which have been treated as discontinued operations through June 30, 2007. The results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year. These consolidated condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2006, which are included as part of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

On July 2, 2007, the Company changed its corporate name from “United Auto Group, Inc.” to “Penske Automotive Group, Inc.”

On June 1, 2006, the Company effected a two-for-one split of its voting common stock in the form of a dividend. Shareholders of record as of May 11, 2006 received one additional share for each share they owned. All share and per share information herein reflects the stock split.

Tax returns filed by the Company in all jurisdictions are subject to periodic audit by various tax authorities, certain of which are currently underway. To date, no material adjustments have been proposed in connection with these audits, and the Company does not anticipate that these audits will result in a material change to its financial position or results of operations. FASB Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” clarifies the accounting for uncertain tax positions, prescribing a minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized, and providing guidance on the derecognition, measurement, classification and disclosure relating to income taxes.

The Company adopted FIN No. 48 as of January 1, 2007, pursuant to which the Company recorded a $4,430 increase in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits, which was accounted for as a reduction to the January 1, 2007 balance of retained earnings. As of January 1, 2007, the Company’s total amount of unrecognized tax benefit was approximately $36,600, of which approximately $23,600 could favorably impact the Company’s effective tax rate in the future. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. The Company does not expect the amount of unrecognized tax benefits to change materially in the next twelve months.

In September 2006, the SEC released Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, “Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements When Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements” (“SAB 108”), which permitted the Company to adjust for the cumulative effect of prior period immaterial errors in the carrying amount of assets and liabilities as of the beginning of 2006, with an offsetting adjustment to retained earnings as of January 1, 2006. SAB 108 requires the adjustment of any previously issued quarterly financial statements within 2006 for the effects of such errors on the quarters when the information is next presented. Such adjustments do not require previously filed reports with the SEC to be amended. In accordance with SAB 108, the Company adjusted its opening retained earnings as of January 1, 2006 and its financial results for the first three quarters of fiscal 2006 to correct an error related to operating leases with scheduled rent increases which were not accounted for on a straight line basis over the rental period. The error, which was previously determined to be immaterial on a quantitative and qualitative basis under the Company’s assessment methodology for each individual period, impacted net income by $804 and $2,115 during the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. A summary of the impact of the error on previously issued 2006 quarterly financial statements follows:

Discontinued Operations

The Company accounts for dispositions as discontinued operations when it is evident that the operations and cash flows of a franchise being disposed of will be eliminated from the Company’s on-going operations and that the Company will not have any significant continuing involvement in its operations. In reaching the determination as to whether the cash flows of a dealership will be eliminated from ongoing operations, the Company considers whether it is likely that customers will migrate to similar franchises that it owns in the same geographic market. The Company’s consideration includes an evaluation of the brands sold at other dealerships it operates in the market and their proximity to the disposed dealership. When the Company disposes of franchises, it typically does not have continuing brand representation in that market. If the franchise being disposed of is located in a complex of Company dealerships, the Company does not treat the disposition as a discontinued operation if the Company believes that the cash flows generated by the disposed franchise will be replaced by expanded operations of the remaining franchises. Combined financial information regarding dealerships accounted for as discontinued operations follows:


	Three Months Ended June 30,					Six Months Ended June 30,
	2007		2006			2007			2006
Revenues	$	128,953	$	234,117		$	266,068		$	460,622

Other liabilities		16,245		22,004


Total Liabilities	$	69,959	$	50,560

Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The accounts requiring the use of significant estimates include accounts receivable, inventories, income taxes, intangible assets and certain reserves.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

Intangible Assets

The Company’s principal intangible assets relate to its franchise agreements with vehicle manufacturers, which represent the estimated value of franchises acquired in business combinations, and goodwill, which represents the excess of cost over the fair value of tangible and identified intangible assets acquired in connection with business combinations. Intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives. The Company believes the franchise value of its dealerships has an indefinite useful life based on the following facts:

	•		Automotive retailing is a mature industry and is based on franchise agreements with the vehicle manufacturers;

	•		There are no known changes or events that would alter the automotive retailing franchise environment;

	•		Certain franchise agreement terms are indefinite;

	•		Franchise agreements that have limited terms have historically been renewed without substantial cost; and

	•		The Company’s history shows that manufacturers have not terminated franchise agreements.

The following is a summary of the changes in the carrying amount of goodwill and franchise value for the six months ended June 30, 2007:


			Franchise
	Goodwill		Value
Balance — January 1, 2007	$	1,259,886	$	246,118
Additions during period		59,426		48,896
Foreign currency translation		9,395		2,538


Balance — June 30, 2007	$	1,328,707	$	297,552

As of June 30, 2007, approximately $679,926 of the Company’s goodwill is deductible for tax purposes. The Company has established deferred tax liabilities related to the temporary differences arising from such tax deductible goodwill.

New Accounting Pronouncements

SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosure requirements relating to fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2008. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this pronouncement.

SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value and consequently report unrealized gains and losses on such items in earnings. SFAS No. 159 will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2008. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this pronouncement.

4. Floor Plan Notes Payable — Trade and Non-trade

The Company finances the majority of its new and a portion of its used vehicle inventories under revolving floor plan arrangements with various lenders. In the U.S., the floor plan arrangements are due on demand; however, the Company is generally not required to make loan principal repayments prior to the sale of the financed vehicles. The Company typically makes monthly interest payments on the amount financed. Outside the U.S., substantially all of the floor plan arrangements are payable on demand or have an original maturity of 90 days or less and the Company is generally required to repay floor plan advances at the earlier of the sale of the financed vehicles or the stated maturity. All of the floor plan agreements grant a security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Company’s dealership subsidiaries. Interest rates under the floor plan arrangements are variable and increase or decrease based on changes in defined benchmarks. The Company classifies floor plan notes payable to a party other than the manufacturer of a particular new vehicle, and all floor plan notes payable relating to pre-owned vehicles, as floor plan notes payable — non-trade on its consolidated condensed balance sheets and classifies related cash flows as a financing activity on its consolidated condensed statements of cash flows.

5. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed using net income and weighted average shares of voting common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed using net income and the weighted average shares of voting common stock outstanding, adjusted for the dilutive effect of stock options and restricted stock. A reconciliation of the number of shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 follows:


	Three Months Ended June				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2007		2006		2007		2006
Weighted average shares outstanding		94,033		93,900		93,940		93,461
Effect of stock options		228		334		236		552
Effect of restricted stock		271		402		307		486

Weighted average shares outstanding, including effect of dilutive securities		94,532		94,636		94,483		94,499

In addition, the Company has senior subordinated convertible notes outstanding which, under certain circumstances discussed in Note 6, may be converted to voting common stock. As of June 30, 2007 and 2006, no shares related to the senior subordinated convertible notes were included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share because the effect of such securities was not dilutive.

U.S. Credit Agreement

The Company is party to a credit agreement with DaimlerChrysler Financial Services Americas LLC and Toyota Motor Credit Corporation, as amended (the “U.S. Credit Agreement”), which provides for up to $250,000 in revolving loans for working capital, acquisitions, capital expenditures, investments and for other general corporate purposes, and for an additional $10,000 of availability for letters of credit, through September 30, 2009. The revolving loans bear interest between defined LIBOR plus 2.50% and defined LIBOR plus 3.50%.

The U.S. Credit Agreement is fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and contains a number of significant covenants that, among other things, restrict the Company’s ability to dispose of assets, incur additional indebtedness, repay other indebtedness, pay dividends, create liens on assets, make investments or acquisitions and engage in mergers or consolidations. The Company is also required to comply with specified financial and other tests and ratios, each as defined in the U.S. Credit Agreement, including: a ratio of current assets to current liabilities, a fixed charge coverage ratio, a ratio of debt to stockholders’ equity, a ratio of debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), a ratio of domestic debt to domestic EBITDA, and a measurement of stockholders’ equity. A breach of these requirements would give rise to certain remedies under the agreement, the most severe of which is the termination of the agreement and acceleration of the amounts owed. As of June 30, 2007, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the U.S. Credit Agreement.

The U.S. Credit Agreement also contains typical events of default, including change of control, non-payment of obligations and cross-defaults to the Company’s other material indebtedness. Substantially all of the Company’s domestic assets not pledged as security under floor plan arrangements are subject to security interests granted to lenders under the U.S. Credit Agreement. Outstanding letters of credit under the U.S. Credit Agreement amounted to $500 as of June 30, 2007. No other amounts were outstanding under this facility as of June 30, 2007.

U.K. Credit Agreement

The Company’s subsidiaries in the U.K. (the “U.K. Subsidiaries”) are party to an agreement with the Royal Bank of Scotland plc, as agent for National Westminster Bank plc, which provides for a five year multi-option credit agreement, a fixed rate credit agreement and a seasonally adjusted overdraft line of credit (collectively, the “U.K. Credit Agreement”) to be used to finance acquisitions, working capital, and general corporate purposes. The U.K. Credit Agreement provides for (1) up to £70,000 in revolving loans through August 31, 2011, which have an original maturity of 90 days or less and bear interest between defined LIBOR plus 0.65% and defined LIBOR plus 1.25%, (2) a £30,000 funded term loan which bears interest between 5.94% and 6.54% and is payable ratably in quarterly intervals commencing on June 30, 2007 through June 30, 2011, and (3) a seasonally adjusted overdraft line of credit for up to £30,000 that bears interest at the Bank of England Base Rate plus 1.00% and matures on August 31, 2011.

The U.K. Credit Agreement is fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by the U.K. Subsidiaries, and contains a number of significant covenants that, among other things, restrict the ability of the U.K. Subsidiaries to pay dividends, dispose of assets, incur additional indebtedness, repay other indebtedness, create liens on assets, make investments or acquisitions and engage in mergers or consolidations. In addition, the U.K. Subsidiaries are required to comply with specified ratios and tests, each as defined in the U.K. Credit Agreement, including: a ratio of earnings before interest and taxes plus rental payments to interest plus rental payments (as defined), a measurement of maximum capital expenditures, and a debt to EBITDA ratio (as defined). A breach of these requirements would give rise to certain remedies under the agreement, the most severe of which is the termination of the agreement and acceleration of the amounts owed. As of June 30, 2007, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the U.K. Credit Agreement.

The U.K. Credit Agreement also contains typical events of default, including change of control and non-payment of obligations and cross-defaults to other material indebtedness of the U.K. Subsidiaries. Substantially all of the U.K. Subsidiaries’ assets not pledged as security under floor plan arrangements are subject to security interests granted to lenders under the U.K. Credit Agreement. As of June 30, 2007, outstanding loans under the U.K. Credit Agreement amounted to £43,235 ($86,821).

7.75% Senior Subordinated Notes

On December 7, 2006, the Company issued $375,000 aggregate principal amount of 7.75% Senior Subordinated Notes (the “7.75% Notes”) due 2016. The 7.75% Notes are unsecured senior subordinated notes and are subordinate to all existing and future senior debt, including debt under the Company’s credit agreements and floor plan indebtedness. The 7.75% Notes are guaranteed by substantially all wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries on a senior subordinated basis. The Company can redeem all or some of the 7.75% Notes at its option beginning in December 2011 at specified redemption prices, or prior to December 2011 at 100% of the principal amount of the notes plus an applicable “make-whole” premium, as defined. In addition, the Company may redeem up to 40% of the 7.75% Notes at specified redemption prices using the proceeds of certain equity offerings before December 15, 2009. Upon certain sales of assets or specific kinds of changes of control the Company is required to make an offer to purchase the 7.75% Notes. The 7.75% Notes also contain customary negative covenants and events of default. As of June 30, 2007, the Company was in compliance with all negative covenants and there were no events of default.

Senior Subordinated Convertible Notes

On January 31, 2006, the Company issued $375,000 aggregate principal amount of 3.50% senior subordinated convertible notes due 2026 (the “Convertible Notes”). The Convertible Notes mature on April 1, 2026, unless earlier converted, redeemed or purchased by the Company. The Convertible Notes are unsecured senior subordinated obligations and are guaranteed on an unsecured senior subordinated basis by substantially all of the Company’s wholly owned domestic subsidiaries. The Convertible Notes also contain customary negative covenants and events of default. As of June 30, 2007, the Company was in compliance with all negative covenants and there were no events of default.

Holders may convert based on a conversion rate of 42.2052 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Convertible Notes (which is equal to an initial conversion price of approximately $23.69 per share), subject to adjustment, only under the following circumstances: (1) in any quarterly period commencing after March 31, 2006, if the closing price of the common stock for twenty of the last thirty trading days in the prior quarter exceeds $28.43 (subject to adjustment), (2) for specified periods, if the trading price of the Convertible Notes falls below specific thresholds, (3) if the Convertible Notes are called for redemption, (4) if specified distributions to holders of common stock are made or specified corporate transactions occur, (5) if a fundamental change (as defined) occurs, or (6) during the ten trading days prior to, but excluding, the maturity date.

Upon conversion of the Convertible Notes, for each $1,000 principal amount of the Convertible Notes, a holder will receive an amount in cash, in lieu of shares of the Company’s common stock, equal to the lesser of (i) $1,000 or (ii) the conversion value, determined in the manner set forth in the related indenture covering the Convertible Notes, of the number of shares of common stock equal to the conversion rate. If the conversion value exceeds $1,000, the Company will also deliver, at its election, cash, common stock or a combination of cash and common stock with respect to the remaining value deliverable upon conversion.

If a holder elects to convert its Convertible Notes in connection with certain events that constitute a change of control on or before April 6, 2011, the Company will pay, to the extent described in the Indenture, a make-whole premium by increasing the conversion rate applicable to such Convertible Notes. In addition, the Company will pay contingent interest in cash, commencing with any six-month period from April 1 to September 30 and from October 1 to March 31, beginning on April 1, 2011, if the average trading price of a Convertible Note for the five trading days ending on the third trading day immediately preceding the first day of that six-month period equals 120% or more of the principal amount of the Convertible Note.

PENSKE AUTOMOTIVE GROUP, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

On or after April 6, 2011, the Company may redeem the Convertible Notes, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, for cash at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes to be redeemed, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to the applicable redemption date. Holders of the Convertible Notes may require the Company to purchase all or a portion of their Securities for cash on each of April 1, 2011, April 1, 2016 and April 1, 2021 at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes to be purchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the applicable purchase date.

9.625% Senior Subordinated Notes

In March 2007, the Company redeemed its $300,000 aggregate principal amount of 9.625% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2012 (the “9.625% Notes”) at a price of 104.813%. The 9.625% Notes were unsecured senior subordinated notes and were subordinate to all existing senior debt, including debt under the Company’s credit agreements and floor plan indebtedness. The Company incurred an $18,634 pre-tax charge in connection with the redemption, consisting of a $14,439 redemption premium and the write-off of $4,195 of unamortized deferred financing costs.

7. Stockholders’ Equity

On January 26, 2006, the Company repurchased 1,000 shares of its outstanding common stock for $18,960, or $18.96 per share. These shares and all other shares held as treasury stock were retired during the second quarter of 2007.

Comprehensive income

Other comprehensive income includes changes in the fair value of interest rate swap agreements, foreign currency translation gains and losses, and available for sale securities valuation adjustments that have been excluded from net income and reflected in equity. Total comprehensive income is summarized as follows:

8. Interest Rate Swaps

The Company is party to an interest rate swap agreement through January 2008 pursuant to which a notional $200,000 of its U.S. floating rate debt was exchanged for fixed rate debt. The swap was designated as a cash flow hedge of future interest payments of the LIBOR based U.S. floor plan borrowings. During the six months ended June 30, 2007, the swap reduced the weighted average interest rate on floor plan borrowings by approximately 0.1%. As of June 30, 2007, the Company expects approximately $567 associated with the swap to be recognized as a reduction of interest expense over the next twelve months.

9. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

The Company is involved in litigation which may relate to issues with customers, employment related matters, class action claims, purported class action claims, and claims brought by governmental authorities. As of June 30, 2007, the Company is not party to any legal proceedings, including class action lawsuits, that, individually or in the aggregate, are reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. However, the results of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, and an unfavorable resolution of one or more of these matters could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

The Company is party to a joint venture agreement with respect to one of the Company’s franchises pursuant to which the Company is required to repurchase its partner’s interest in July 2008. The Company expects this payment to be approximately $4.0 million.

The Company leases the majority of its dealership facilities and corporate offices under non-cancelable operating lease agreements with terms from three to thirty years. Such leases typically include escalation clauses tied to an inflation index such as the Consumer Price Index and additional option periods of up to thirty years that are available to the Company.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. See “Forward Looking Statements.” We have acquired a number of dealerships since inception. Our financial statements include the results of operations of acquired dealerships from the date of acquisition. This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations has been updated for the effects of revising our financial statements for entities which have been treated as discontinued operations through June 30, 2007 in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, revised to reflect our two-for-one split of our voting common stock in the form of a stock dividend, and restated for our adoption of Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 108 “Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements When Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements”.

Overview

On July 2, 2007, we changed our corporate name from “United Auto Group, Inc.” to “Penske Automotive Group, Inc.” We are the second largest automotive retailer in the United States as measured by total revenues. As of June 30, 2007, we owned and operated 164 franchises in the United States and 147 franchises outside of the U.S., primarily in the United Kingdom. We offer a full range of vehicle brands. In addition to selling new and used vehicles, we generate higher-margin revenue at each of our dealerships through maintenance and repair services and the sale and placement of higher-margin products, such as third party finance and insurance products, third-party extended service contracts and replacement and aftermarket automotive products.

New and used vehicle revenues include sales to retail customers and to leasing companies providing consumer automobile leasing. We generate finance and insurance revenues from sales of third-party extended service contracts, sales of third-party insurance policies, fees for facilitating the sale of third-party finance and lease contracts and the sale of certain other products. Service and parts revenues include fees paid for repair, maintenance and collision services, the sale of replacement parts and the sale of aftermarket accessories.

We and Sirius Satellite Radio Inc. (“Sirius”) have agreed to jointly promote Sirius Satellite Radio service. Pursuant to the terms of our arrangement with Sirius, our dealerships in the U.S. endeavor to order a significant percentage of eligible vehicles with a factory installed Sirius radio. We and Sirius have also agreed to jointly market the Sirius service under a best efforts arrangement through January 4, 2009. Our costs relating to such marketing initiatives are expensed as incurred. As compensation for our efforts, we received warrants to purchase ten million shares of Sirius common stock at $2.392 per share in 2004 that are being earned ratably on an annual basis through January 2009. We earned warrants to purchase two million shares in each of 2004, 2005 and 2006. We measure the fair value of the warrants earned ratably on the date they are earned as there are no significant disincentives for non-performance. Since we can reasonably estimate the number of warrants that will be earned pursuant to the ratable schedule, the estimated fair value (based on current fair value) of these warrants is being recognized ratably during each annual period.

We also have received the right to earn additional warrants to purchase Sirius common stock at $2.392 per share based upon the sale of certain units of specified brands through December 31, 2007. We earned 123,800, 1,269,700 and 522,400 of these warrants during the six months ended June 30, 2007 and the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Since we cannot reasonably estimate the number of warrants that will be earned subject to the sale of units, the fair value of these warrants is being recognized when they are earned.

The value of Sirius stock has been and is expected to be subject to significant fluctuations, which may result in variability in the amount we earn under this arrangement. The warrants may be cancelled upon the termination of our arrangement and we may not be able to achieve the performance targets outlined in the warrants.

Our gross profit tends to vary with the mix of revenues we derive from the sale of new vehicles, used vehicles, finance and insurance products, and service and parts. Our gross profit generally varies across product lines, with vehicle sales usually resulting in lower gross profit margins and our other revenues resulting in higher gross profit margins. Factors such as seasonality, weather, cyclicality and manufacturers’ advertising and incentives may impact the mix of our revenues, and therefore influence our gross profit margin.

Our selling expenses consist of advertising and compensation for sales personnel, including commissions and related bonuses. General and administrative expenses include compensation for administration, finance, legal and general management personnel, rent, insurance, utilities and other outside services. A significant portion of our selling expenses are variable, and a significant portion of our general and administrative expenses are subject to our control, allowing us to adjust them over time to reflect economic trends.

Floor plan interest expense relates to obligations incurred in connection with the acquisition of new and used vehicle inventories. Other interest expense consists of interest charges on all of our interest-bearing debt, other than interest relating to floor plan financing.

The future success of our business will likely be dependent on, among other things, our ability to consummate and integrate acquisitions, our ability to increase sales of higher margin products, especially service and parts services, and our ability to realize returns on our significant capital investment in new and upgraded dealerships. See “Forward-Looking Statements.”

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the application of accounting policies that often involve making estimates and employing judgments. Such judgments influence the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses recognized in our financial statements. Management, on an ongoing basis, reviews these estimates and assumptions. Management may determine that modifications in assumptions and estimates are required, which may result in a material change in our results of operations or financial position.

The following are the accounting policies applied in the preparation of our financial statements that management believes are most dependent upon the use of estimates and assumptions.

Revenue Recognition

Vehicle, Parts and Service Sales

We record revenue when vehicles are delivered and title has passed to the customer, when vehicle service or repair work is performed and when parts are delivered to our customers. Sales promotions that we offer to customers are accounted for as a reduction of revenues at the time of sale. Rebates and other incentives offered directly to us by manufacturers are recognized as a reduction of cost of sales. Reimbursement of qualified advertising expenses are treated as a reduction of selling, general and administrative expenses. The amounts received under various manufacturer rebate and incentive programs are based on the attainment of program objectives, and such earnings are recognized either upon the sale of the vehicle for which the award was received, or upon attainment of the particular program goals if not associated with individual vehicles. During the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, we earned $164.1 million and $130.4 million, respectively, of rebates incentives and reimbursements from manufacturers, of which $160.8 million and $127.0 million was recorded as a reduction of cost of sales.

Finance and Insurance Sales

Subsequent to the sale of the vehicle to a customer, we sell our credit contracts to various financial institutions on a non-recourse basis to mitigate the risk of default. We receive a commission from the lender equal to either the difference between the interest rates charged to customers and the interest rates set by the financing institution or a flat fee. We also receive commissions for facilitating the sale of various third-party insurance products to customers, including credit and life insurance policies and extended service contracts. These commissions are recorded as revenue at the time the customer enters into the contract. In the case of finance contracts, a customer may prepay or fail to pay their contract, thereby terminating the contract. Customers may also terminate extended service contracts and other insurance products, which are fully paid at purchase, and become eligible for refunds of unused premiums. In these circumstances, a portion of the commissions we received may be charged back to us based on the terms of the contracts. The revenue we record relating to these transactions is net of an estimate of the amount of chargebacks we will be required to pay. Our estimate is based upon our historical experience with similar contracts, including the impact of refinance and default rates on retail finance contracts and cancellation rates on extended service contracts and other insurance products. Aggregate reserves relating to chargeback activity were $18.3 million and $16.9 million as of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. Changes in reserve estimates relate primarily to an increase in the amount of revenues subject to chargeback.

Intangible Assets

Our principal intangible assets relate to our franchise agreements with vehicle manufacturers, which represent the estimated value of franchises acquired in business combinations, and goodwill, which represents the excess of cost over the fair value of tangible and identified intangible assets acquired in connection with business combinations. Intangible assets are required to be amortized over their estimated useful lives. We believe the franchise values of our dealerships have an indefinite useful life based on the following facts:

	•		Automotive retailing is a mature industry and is based on franchise agreements with the vehicle manufacturers;

	•		There are no known changes or events that would alter the automotive retailing franchise environment;

	•		Certain franchise agreement terms are indefinite;

	•		Franchise agreements that have limited terms have historically been renewed without substantial cost; and

	•		Our history shows that manufacturers have not terminated franchise agreements.

Impairment Testing

Franchise value impairment is assessed as of October 1 every year through a comparison of the carrying amounts of our franchises with their estimated fair values. We also evaluate our franchises in connection with the annual impairment testing to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support our assessment that the franchise has an indefinite life.

Goodwill impairment is assessed at the reporting unit level as of October 1 every year and upon the occurrence of an indicator of impairment. If an indication of impairment exists, the impairment is measured by comparing the implied fair value of the reporting unit goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill and an impairment loss may be recognized equal to that excess.

The fair values of franchise value and goodwill are determined using a discounted cash flow approach, which includes assumptions relating to revenue and profitability growth, franchise profit margins, residual values and our cost of capital. If future events and circumstances cause significant changes in the assumptions underlying our analysis which results in a reduction of our estimates of fair value, we may incur an impairment charge.

Investments

Investments include marketable securities and investments in businesses accounted for under the equity method and the cost method. Investments held by us are typically classified as available for sale and are stated at fair value on our balance sheet with unrealized gains and losses included in other comprehensive income, a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Declines in investment values that are deemed to be other than temporary would be an indicator of impairment and may result in an impairment charge reducing the investments’ carrying value to fair value. A majority of our investments are in joint venture relationships that are more fully described in “Joint Venture Relationships” below. Such joint venture relationships are accounted for under the equity method, pursuant to which we record our proportionate share of the joint venture’s income each period.

The net book value of our investments was $68.5 million and $69.5 million as of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. Investments for which there is not a liquid, actively traded market are reviewed periodically by management for indicators of impairment. If an indicator of impairment was identified, management would estimate the fair value of the investment using a discounted cash flow approach, which would include assumptions relating to revenue and profitability growth, profit margins, residual values and our cost of capital. Declines in investment values that are deemed to be other than temporary may result in an impairment charge reducing the investments’ carrying value to fair value. No impairments were recognized during the periods presented.

Self-Insurance

We retain risk relating to certain of our general liability insurance, workers’ compensation insurance, auto physical damage insurance, property insurance and employee medical benefits in the United States. As a result, we are likely to be responsible for a majority of the claims and losses incurred under these programs. The amount of risk we retain varies by program, and, for certain exposures, we have pre-determined maximum exposure limits for certain individual claims and/or insurance periods. Losses, if any, above the pre-determined exposure limits are paid by third-party insurance carriers. Our estimate of future losses is prepared by management using our historical loss experience and industry-based development factors. Aggregate reserves relating to retained risk were $15.4 million and $13.4 million as of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. Changes in the reserve estimate during 2007 relate primarily to changes in loss experience in our employee medical, general liability and workers compensation programs.

Income Taxes

Tax regulations may require items to be included in our tax return at different times than the items are reflected in our financial statements. Some of these differences are permanent, such as expenses that are not deductible on our tax return, and some are timing differences, such as the timing of depreciation expense. Timing differences create deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets generally represent items that can be used as a tax deduction or credit in our tax return in future years which we have already recorded in our financial statements. Deferred tax liabilities generally represent deductions taken on our tax return that have not yet been recognized as expense in our financial statements. We establish valuation allowances for our deferred tax assets if the amount of expected future taxable income is not likely to allow for the use of the deduction or credit. A valuation allowance of $3.9 million has been recorded relating to state net operating loss and credit carryforwards in the United States based on our determination that it is more likely than not that they will not be utilized.

Classification of Franchises in Continuing and Discontinued Operations

We classify the results of our operations in our consolidated financial statements based on the provisions of SFAS No. 144. Many of these provisions involve judgment in determining whether a franchise will be reported within continuing or discontinued operations. Such judgments include whether a franchise will be sold or terminated, the period required to complete the disposition, and the likelihood of changes to a plan for sale. If in future periods we determine that a franchise should be either reclassified from continuing operations to discontinued operations or from discontinued operations to continuing operations, our consolidated financial statements for prior periods would be revised to reflect such reclassification.

New Accounting Pronouncements

SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosure requirements relating to fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2008. We are currently evaluating the impact of this pronouncement.

SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value and consequently report unrealized gains and losses on such items in earnings. SFAS No. 159 will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2008. We are currently evaluating the impact of this pronouncement.

Results of Operations

The following tables present comparative financial data relating to our operating performance in the aggregate and on a “same store” basis. Dealership results are only included in same store comparisons when we have consolidated the acquired entity during the entirety of both periods being compared. As an example, if a dealership was acquired on January 15, 2005, the results of the acquired entity would be included in annual same store comparisons beginning with the year ended December 31, 2007 and in quarterly same store comparisons beginning with the quarter ended June 30, 2006.

Units

Retail data includes retail new vehicle, retail used vehicle, finance and insurance and service and parts transactions. Retail unit sales of vehicles increased by 8,439 units, or 12.1%, from 2006 to 2007. The increase is due to a 1,367 or 2.0% increase in same store retail unit sales, coupled with a 7,072 unit increase from net dealership acquisitions during the period. The increase in same store retail unit sales in 2007 was driven primarily by increases in our used vehicle unit sales.

Revenues

Retail sales revenue increased $505.3 million, or 19.5%, from 2006 to 2007. The increase is due to a $216.6 million, or 8.5%, increase in same store revenues, coupled with a $288.7 million increase from net dealership acquisitions during the period. The same store revenue increase is due to (1) a $2,175, or 6.5%, increase in average new vehicle revenue per unit, which increased revenue by $101.8 million, (2) a $2,212, or 7.8%, increase in average used vehicle revenue per unit, which increased revenue by $48.7 million, (3) a $46, or 4.9%, increase in average finance and insurance revenue per unit, which increased revenue by $3.2 million, (4) a $20.0 million, or 6.6%, increase in service and parts revenues, and (5) the 2.0% increase in retail unit sales which increased revenue by $42.9 million.

Gross Profit

Revenues

Service and parts revenue increased $109.4 million, or 18.2%, from 2006 to 2007. The increase is due to a $47.4 million, or 8.1%, increase in same store revenues, coupled with a $62.0 million increase from net dealership acquisitions during the period.

In March 2007, we redeemed our outstanding $300.0 million 9.625% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2012.

Income Taxes

Income taxes decreased $4.7 million, or 12.8%, from $36.5 million to $31.8 million. The decrease from 2006 to 2007 is due primarily to the decrease in our pre-tax income versus the prior year, coupled with a reduction in our overall effective income tax rate.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our cash requirements are primarily for working capital, inventory financing, the acquisition of new dealerships, the improvement and expansion of existing facilities, the construction of new facilities and dividends. Historically, these cash requirements have been met through cash flow from operations, borrowings under our credit agreements and floor plan arrangements, the issuance of debt securities, sale-leaseback transactions or the issuance of equity securities. As of June 30, 2007, we had working capital of $173.9 million, including $18.3 million of cash available to fund our operations and capital commitments. In addition, we had $250.0 million and £75 million ($150.2 million) available for borrowing under our U.S. credit agreement and our U.K. credit agreement, respectively, each of which are discussed below.

We paid a dividend of six cents per share on March 1, 2006 and dividends of seven cents per share on June 1, 2006, September 1, 2006, December 1, 2006, March 1, 2007 and June 1, 2007. We have also declared a dividend of $0.07 cents per share payable on September 4, 2007 to shareholders of record on August 10, 2007. Future quarterly or other cash dividends will depend upon our earnings, capital requirements, financial condition, restrictions on any then existing indebtedness and other factors considered relevant by our Board of Directors.

We have expanded primarily through organic growth and through the acquisition of automotive dealerships. In addition, we were named as the exclusive distributor of smart fortwo vehicles in the United States and Puerto Rico. We believe that cash flow from operations and our existing capital resources, including the liquidity provided by our credit agreements and floor plan financing arrangements, will be sufficient to fund our operations and commitments for at least the next twelve months. To the extent we pursue additional significant acquisitions or other expansion opportunities, we may need to raise additional capital either through the public or private issuance of equity or debt securities or through additional bank borrowing which sources of funds may not necessarily be available on terms acceptable to us, if at all.

Inventory Financing

We finance substantially all of our new and a portion of our used vehicle inventories under revolving floor plan arrangements with various lenders. In the U.S., the floor plan arrangements are due on demand; however, we are generally not required to make loan principal repayments prior to the sale of the vehicles financed. We typically make monthly interest payments on the amount financed. In the U.K., substantially all of our floor plan arrangements are payable on demand or have an original maturity of 90 days or less and we are generally required to repay floor plan advances at the earlier of the sale of the vehicles financed or the stated maturity. The floor plan agreements grant a security interest in substantially all of the assets of our dealership subsidiaries. Interest rates under the floor plan arrangements are variable and increase or decrease based on changes in defined benchmarks. We receive non-refundable credits from certain of our vehicle manufacturers, which are treated as a reduction of cost of sales as vehicles are sold.

U.S. Credit Agreement

We are party to a credit agreement with DaimlerChrysler Financial Services Americas LLC and Toyota Motor Credit Corporation, as amended, which provides for up to $250.0 million in revolving loans for working capital, acquisitions, capital expenditures, investments and for other general corporate purposes, and for an additional $10.0 million of availability for letters of credit, through September 30, 2009. The revolving loans bear interest between defined LIBOR plus 2.50% and defined LIBOR plus 3.50%.

The U.S. credit agreement is fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by our domestic subsidiaries and contains a number of significant covenants that, among other things, restrict our ability to dispose of assets, incur additional indebtedness, repay other indebtedness, pay dividends, create liens on assets, make investments or acquisitions and engage in mergers or consolidations. We are also required to comply with specified financial and other tests and ratios, each as defined in the U.S. credit agreement, including: a ratio of current assets to current liabilities, a fixed charge coverage ratio, a ratio of debt to stockholders’ equity, a ratio of debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), a ratio of domestic debt to domestic EBITDA, and a measurement of stockholders’ equity. A breach of these requirements would give rise to certain remedies under the agreement, the most severe of which is the termination of the agreement and acceleration of the amounts owed. As of June 30, 2007, we were in compliance with all covenants under the U.S. credit agreement, and we believe we will remain in compliance with such covenants for the foreseeable future. In making such determination, we have considered the current margin of compliance with the covenants and the expected future results of operations, working capital requirements, acquisitions, capital expenditures and investments in the U.S.

The U.S. credit agreement also contains typical events of default, including change of control, non-payment of obligations and cross-defaults to our other material indebtedness. Substantially all of our domestic assets not pledged as security under floor plan arrangements are subject to security interests granted to lenders under the U.S. credit agreement. Outstanding letters of credit under the U.S. credit agreement amounted to $0.5 million as of June 30, 2007. No other amounts were outstanding under the U.S. credit facility as of June 30, 2007.

U.K. Credit Agreement

Our subsidiaries in the U.K. are party to an agreement with the Royal Bank of Scotland plc, as agent for National Westminster Bank plc, which provides for a five year multi-option credit agreement, a fixed rate credit agreement and a seasonally adjusted overdraft line of credit to be used to finance acquisitions, working capital, and general corporate purposes. The U.K. credit agreement provides for (1) up to £70.0 million in revolving loans through August 31, 2011, which have an original maturity of 90 days or less and bear interest between defined LIBOR plus 0.65% and defined LIBOR plus 1.25%, (2) a £30.0 million funded term loan which bears interest between 5.94% and 6.54% and is payable ratably in quarterly intervals through June 30, 2011, and (3) a seasonally adjusted overdraft line of credit for up to £30.0 million that bears interest at the Bank of England Base Rate plus 1.00% and matures on August 31, 2011.

The U.K. credit agreement is fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by the U.K. Subsidiaries, and contains a number of significant covenants that, among other things, restrict the ability of the U.K. Subsidiaries to pay dividends, dispose of assets, incur additional indebtedness, repay other indebtedness, create liens on assets, make investments or acquisitions and engage in mergers or consolidations. In addition, our U.K. subsidiaries are required to comply with specified ratios and tests, each as defined in the U.K. credit agreement, including: a ratio of earnings before interest and taxes plus rental payments to interest plus rental payments (as defined), a measurement of maximum capital expenditures, and a debt to EBITDA ratio (as defined). A breach of these requirements would give rise to certain remedies under the agreement, the most severe of which is the termination of the agreement and acceleration of the amounts owed. As of June 30, 2007, we were in compliance with all covenants under the U.K. credit agreement, and we believe we will remain in compliance with such covenants for the foreseeable future. In making such determination, we have considered the current margin of compliance with the covenants and the expected future results of operations, working capital requirements, acquisitions, capital expenditures and investments in the U.K.

The U.K. credit agreement also contains typical events of default, including change of control and non-payment of obligations and cross-defaults to other material indebtedness of the U.K. subsidiaries. Substantially all of our U.K. subsidiaries’ assets not pledged as security under floor plan arrangements are subject to security interests granted to lenders under the U.K. credit agreement. As of June 30, 2007, outstanding loans under the U.K. credit agreement amounted to £43.2 million ($86.8 million).

7.75% Senior Subordinated Notes

On December 7, 2006 we issued $375.0 million aggregate principal amount of 7.75% Senior Subordinated Notes (the “7.75% Notes”) due 2016. The 7.75% Notes are unsecured senior subordinated notes and are subordinate to all existing and future senior debt, including debt under our credit agreements and floor plan indebtedness. The 7.75% Notes are guaranteed by substantially all wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries on a senior subordinated basis. We can redeem all or some of the 7.75% Notes at our option beginning in December 2011 at specified redemption prices, or prior to December 2011 at 100% of the principal amount of the notes plus an applicable “make-whole” premium, as defined. In addition, we may redeem up to 40% of the 7.75% Notes at specified redemption prices using the proceeds of certain equity offerings before December 15, 2009. Upon certain sales of assets or specific kinds of changes of control we are required to make an offer to purchase the 7.75% Notes. The 7.75% Notes also contain customary negative covenants and events of default. As of June 30, 2007, we were in compliance with all negative covenants and there were no events of default.

Senior Subordinated Convertible Notes

On January 31, 2006, we issued $375.0 million aggregate principal amount of 3.50% senior subordinated convertible notes due 2026 (the “Convertible Notes”). The Convertible Notes mature on April 1, 2026, unless earlier converted, redeemed or purchased by the Company. The Convertible Notes are unsecured senior subordinated obligations and are guaranteed on an unsecured senior subordinated basis by substantially all of our wholly owned domestic subsidiaries. The Convertible Notes also contain customary negative covenants and events of default. As of June 30, 2007, we were in compliance with all negative covenants and there were no events of default.

Holders may convert based on a conversion rate of 42.2052 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Convertible Notes (which is equal to a conversion price of approximately $23.69 per share), subject to adjustment, only under the following circumstances: (1) in any quarterly period commencing after March 31, 2006, if the closing price of our common stock for twenty of the last thirty trading days in the prior quarter exceeds $28.43 (subject to adjustment), (2) for specified periods, if the trading price of the Convertible Notes falls below specific thresholds, (3) if the Convertible Notes are called for redemption, (4) if specified distributions to holders of our common stock are made or specified corporate transactions occur, (5) if a fundamental change (as defined) occurs, or (6) during the ten trading days prior to, but excluding, the maturity date.

Upon conversion of the Convertible Notes, for each $1,000 principal amount of the Convertible Notes, a holder will receive an amount in cash, in lieu of shares of our common stock, equal to the lesser of (i) $1,000 or (ii) the conversion value, determined in the manner set forth in the related indenture covering the Convertible Notes, of the number of shares of common stock equal to the conversion rate. If the conversion value exceeds $1,000, we will also deliver, at our election, cash, common stock or a combination of cash and common stock with respect to the remaining value deliverable upon conversion.

If a holder elects to convert its Convertible Notes in connection with certain events that constitute a change of control on or before April 6, 2011, we will pay, to the extent described in the related Indenture, a make-whole premium by increasing the conversion rate applicable to such Convertible Notes. In addition, we will pay contingent interest in cash, commencing with any six-month period from April 1 to September 30 and from October 1 to March 31, beginning on April 1, 2011, if the average trading price of a Convertible Note for the five trading days ending on the third trading day immediately preceding the first day of that six-month period equals 120% or more of the principal amount of the Convertible Note.

On or after April 6, 2011, we may redeem the Convertible Notes, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, for cash at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes to be redeemed, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to the applicable redemption date. Holders of the Convertible Notes may require us to purchase all or a portion of their Convertible Notes for cash on each of April 1, 2011, April 1, 2016 and April 1, 2021 at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes to be purchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the applicable purchase date.

9.625% Senior Subordinated Notes

In March 2007, we redeemed our outstanding $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of 9.625% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2012 (the “9.625% Notes”). The 9.625% Notes were unsecured senior subordinated notes and were subordinate to all existing senior debt, including debt under our credit agreements and floor plan indebtedness. We incurred an $18.6 million pre-tax charge in connection with the redemption, consisting of a $14.4 million redemption premium and the write-off of $4.2 million of unamortized deferred financing costs.

Share Repurchase

On January 26, 2006, we repurchased 1.0 million shares of our outstanding common stock for $19.0 million, or $18.96 per share. These shares and all other shares held as treasury stock were retired during the second quarter of 2007.

Interest Rate Swaps

We are party to an interest rate swap agreement through January 2008 pursuant to which a notional $200.0 million of our U.S. floating rate debt was exchanged for fixed rate debt. The swap was designated as a cash flow hedge of future interest payments of LIBOR based U.S. floor plan borrowings. As of June 30, 2007, we expect approximately $0.6 million associated with the swap to be recognized as a reduction of interest expense over the next twelve months.

Other Financing Arrangements

We have in the past and expect in the future to enter into significant sale-leaseback transactions to finance certain property acquisitions and capital expenditures, pursuant to which we sell property and/or leasehold improvements to a third-party and agree to lease those assets back for a certain period of time. Such sales generate proceeds which vary from period to period.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements — 3.5% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2026

The Convertible Notes are convertible into shares of our common stock, at the option of the holder, based on certain conditions described above. Certain of these conditions are linked to the market value of our common stock. This type of financing arrangement was selected by us in order to achieve a more favorable interest rate (as opposed to other forms of available financing). Since we or the holders of the Convertible Notes can redeem these notes on or after April 2011, a conversion or a redemption of these notes is likely to occur in 2011. The repayment will include cash for the principal amount of the Convertible Notes then outstanding plus an amount payable in either cash or stock, at our option, depending on the trading price of our common stock.

Cash Flows

Cash and cash equivalents increased by $5.1 million and $18.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The major components of these changes are discussed below.

Cash Flows from Continuing Operating Activities

Cash provided by continuing operating activities was $280.8 million and $186.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Cash flows from operating activities include net income, as adjusted for non-cash items and the effects of changes in working capital.

We finance substantially all of our new and a portion of our used vehicle inventories under revolving floor plan arrangements with various lenders. We report all cash flows arising in connection with floor plan arrangements with the manufacturer of a particular new vehicle as an operating activity and all cash flows arising in connection with floor plan arrangements with a party other than the manufacturer of a particular new vehicle and all floor plan notes payable relating to pre-owned vehicles as a financing activity.

We believe that changes in aggregate floor plan liabilities are linked to changes in vehicle inventory and, therefore, are an integral part of understanding changes in our working capital and operating cash flow. Consequently, we have provided below a reconciliation of cash flow from operating activities as reported in our condensed consolidated statement of cash flows as if all changes in vehicle floor plan were classified as an operating activity:


	Six Months Ended
	June 30,
	2007		2006
Net cash from operating activities as reported	$	280,819	$	186,485
Floor plan notes payable — non-trade as reported		154,147		22,250


Net cash from operating activities including all floor plan notes payable	$	434,966	$	208,735

Cash Flows from Continuing Investing Activities

Cash used in continuing investing activities was $134.9 million and $314.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Cash flows from investing activities consist primarily of cash used for capital expenditures, proceeds from sale-leaseback transactions and net expenditures for dealership acquisitions. Capital expenditures were $73.2 million and $110.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Capital expenditures relate primarily to improvements to our existing dealership facilities and the construction of new facilities. Proceeds from sale-leaseback transactions were $76.5 million and $21.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Cash used in business acquisitions, net of cash acquired, was $151.5 million and $225.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, and included cash used to repay sellers floor plan liabilities in such business acquisitions of $43.0 million and $86.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Cash Flows from Continuing Financing Activities

Cash used in continuing financing activities was $210.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2007 and cash provided by continuing financing activities was $136.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2006. Cash flows from financing activities include net borrowings or repayments of long-term debt, net borrowings or repayments of floor plan notes payable non-trade, payments of deferred financing costs, proceeds from the issuance of common stock, including proceeds from the exercise of stock options, repurchases of common stock and dividends. We had net repayments of long-term debt of $353.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2007, including $14.4 million of premium paid on the redemption of our 9.625% Senior Subordinated Notes, and net borrowings of long-term debt of $139.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2006. We had net borrowings of floor plan notes payable non-trade of $154.1 million and $22.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2006, we paid $11.8 million of deferred financing costs related to our issuance of the Convertible Notes. During the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, we received proceeds of $1.5 million and $17.5 million, respectively from the issuance of common stock. During the six months ended June 30, 2006, we repurchased 1.0 million shares of our outstanding common stock for $19.0 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, we paid $13.3 million and $12.1 million, respectively, of cash dividends to our stockholders.

Cash Flows from Discontinued Operations

Cash flows relating to discontinued operations are not currently considered, nor are they expected to be considered material to our liquidity of our capital resources. Management does not believe that there is any significant past, present or upcoming cash impact relating to our discontinued operations.

Commitments

We are party to a joint venture with respect to our Honda of Mentor dealership in Ohio. We are required to repurchase our partners’ interest in this joint venture in July 2008. We expect this payment to be approximately $4.0 million.

Related Party Transactions

Stockholders Agreement

Roger S. Penske, our Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, is also Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of Penske Corporation, and through entities affiliated with Penske Corporation, our largest stockholder owning approximately 40% of our outstanding common stock. Mitsui & Co., Ltd. and Mitsui & Co. (USA), Inc. (collectively, “Mitsui”) own approximately 16% of our outstanding common stock. Mitsui, Penske Corporation and certain other affiliates of Penske Corporation are parties to a stockholders agreement pursuant to which the Penske affiliated companies agreed to vote their shares for one director who is a representative of Mitsui. In turn, Mitsui agreed to vote their shares for up to fourteen directors voted for by the Penske affiliated companies. This agreement terminates in March 2014, upon the mutual consent of the parties or when either party no longer owns any of our common stock.

Other Related Party Interests and Transactions

Roger S. Penske is also a managing member of Penske Capital Partners and Transportation Resource Partners, each organizations that undertake investments in transportation-related industries. Richard J. Peters, one of our directors, is a managing director of Transportation Resource Partners. Mr. Peters and Roger S. Penske, Jr. are each directors of Penske Corporation. Robert H. Kurnick, Jr., our Vice Chairman, is also the President and a director of Penske Corporation. Eustace W. Mita and Lucio A.

We are currently a tenant under a number of non-cancelable lease agreements with Automotive Group Realty, LLC and its subsidiaries (together “AGR”), which are subsidiaries of Penske Corporation. From time to time, we may sell AGR real property and improvements that are subsequently leased by AGR to us. In addition, we may purchase real property or improvements from AGR. Each of these transactions is valued at a price that is independently confirmed. We sometimes pay to and/or receive fees from Penske Corporation and its affiliates for services rendered in the normal course of business, or to reimburse payments made to third parties on each others’ behalf. These transactions and those relating to AGR mentioned above, are reviewed periodically by our Audit Committee and reflect the provider’s cost or an amount mutually agreed upon by both parties.

We have entered into joint ventures with certain related parties as more fully discussed below.

Joint Venture Relationships

From time to time, we enter into joint venture relationships in the ordinary course of business, pursuant to which we acquire dealerships together with other investors. We may provide these dealerships with working capital and other debt financing at costs that are based on our incremental borrowing rate. As of June 30, 2007, our joint venture relationships were as follows:


		Ownership

(B)		Entity is consolidated in our financial statements

(C)		Roger S. Penske, Jr. owns a 10% interest in this joint venture

(D)		Entity is accounted for using the equity method of accounting

Cyclicality

Unit sales of motor vehicles, particularly new vehicles, historically have been cyclical, fluctuating with general economic cycles. During economic downturns, the automotive retailing industry tends to experience periods of decline and recession similar to those experienced by the general economy. We believe that the industry is influenced by general economic conditions and particularly by consumer confidence, the level of personal discretionary spending, fuel prices, interest rates and credit availability.

Seasonality

Our business is modestly seasonal overall. Our U.S. operations generally experience higher volumes of vehicle sales in the second and third quarters of each year due in part to consumer buying trends and the introduction of new vehicle models. Also, demand for cars and light trucks is generally lower during the winter months than in other seasons, particularly in regions of the United States where dealerships may be subject to severe winters. The greatest U.S. seasonality exists at the dealerships we operate in northeastern and upper mid-western states, for which the second and third quarters are the strongest with respect to vehicle-related sales. Our U.K. operations generally experience higher volumes of vehicle sales in the first and third quarters of each year, due primarily to vehicle registration practices in the U.K. The service and parts business at all dealerships experiences relatively modest seasonal fluctuations.

Effects of Inflation

We believe that inflation rates over the last few years have not had a significant impact on revenues or profitability. We do not expect inflation to have any near-term material effects on the sale of our products and services, however, we cannot be sure there will be no such effect in the future. We finance substantially all of our inventory through various revolving floor plan arrangements with interest rates that vary based on the prime rate, LIBOR or the Euro Interbank Offer Rate. Such rates have historically increased during periods of increasing inflation.

Forward Looking Statements

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” which generally can be identified by the use of terms such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “intend,” “plan,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential,” “forecast,” “continue” or variations of such terms, or the use of these terms in the negative. Forward-looking statements include statements regarding our current plans, forecasts, estimates, beliefs or expectations, including, without limitation, statements with respect to:

	•		our future financial performance;

	•		future acquisitions;

	•		future capital expenditures;

	•		our ability to obtain cost savings and synergies;

	•		our ability to respond to economic cycles;

	•		trends in the automotive retail industry and in the general economy in the various countries in which we operate dealerships;

	•		our ability to access the remaining availability under our credit agreements;

	•		our liquidity;

	•		interest rates;

	•		trends affecting our future financial condition or results of operations; and

	•		our business strategy.

Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties and are not assurances of future performance. Actual results may differ materially from anticipated results due to a variety of factors, including the factors identified in our annual report on Form 10-K filed March 1, 2007. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations include the following:

	•		the ability of automobile manufacturers to exercise significant control over our operations, since we depend on them in order to operate our business;

	•		because we depend on the success and popularity of the brands we sell, adverse conditions affecting one or more automobile manufacturers may negatively impact our revenues and profitability;

	•		we may not be able to satisfy our capital requirements for acquisitions, dealership renovation projects or financing the purchase of our inventory;

	•		our failure to meet a manufacturer’s consumer satisfaction requirements may adversely affect our ability to acquire new dealerships, our ability to obtain incentive payments from manufacturers and our profitability;

	•		our business and the automotive retail industry in general are susceptible to adverse economic conditions, including changes in interest rates, consumer confidence, fuel prices and credit availability;

	•		substantial competition in automotive sales and services may adversely affect our profitability;

	•		if we lose key personnel, especially our Chief Executive Officer, or are unable to attract additional qualified personnel, our business could be adversely affected;

	•		because most customers finance the cost of purchasing a vehicle, increased interest rates in the U.S. or the U.K. may adversely affect our vehicle sales;

	•		our business may be adversely affected by import product restrictions and foreign trade risks that may impair our ability to sell foreign vehicles profitably;

	•		our automobile dealerships are subject to substantial regulation which may adversely affect our profitability;

	•		if state dealer laws in the United States are repealed or weakened, our automotive dealerships may be subject to increased competition and may be more susceptible to termination, non-renewal or renegotiation of their franchise agreements;

	•		our U.K. dealerships are not afforded the same legal franchise protections as those in the U.S. so we could be subject to addition competition from other local dealerships in the U.K.;

	•		our automotive dealerships are subject to environmental regulations that may result in claims and liabilities;

	•		our dealership operations may be affected by severe weather or other periodic business interruptions;

	•		our principal stockholders have substantial influence over us and may make decisions with which other stockholders may disagree;

	•		some of our directors and officers may have conflicts of interest with respect to certain related party transactions and other business interests;

	•		our level of indebtedness may limit our ability to obtain financing for acquisitions and may require that a significant portion of our cash flow be used for debt service;

	•		we may be involved in legal proceedings that could have a material adverse effect on our business;

	•		our operations outside of the United States subject our profitability to fluctuations relating to changes in foreign currency valuations; and

	•		we are a holding company and, as a result, must rely on the receipt of payments from our subsidiaries, which are subject to limitations, in order to meet our cash needs and service our indebtedness.

In addition:

	•		the price of our common stock is subject to substantial fluctuation, which may be unrelated to our performance; and

	•		shares eligible for future sale, or issuable under the terms of our convertible notes, may cause the market price of our common stock to drop significantly, even if our business is doing well.

We urge you to carefully consider these risk factors in evaluating all forward-looking statements regarding our business. Readers of this report are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements contained in this report. All forward-looking statements attributable to us are qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement. Except to the extent required by the federal securities laws and Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations, we have no intention or obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rates. We are exposed to market risk from changes in the interest rates on a significant portion of our outstanding indebtedness. Outstanding balances under our credit agreements bear interest at variable rates based on a margin over defined benchmarks. Based on the amount outstanding as of June 30, 2007, a 100 basis point change in interest rates would result in an approximate $0.4 million change to our annual interest expense. Similarly, amounts outstanding under floor plan financing arrangements bear interest at a variable rate based on a margin over defined benchmarks. Based on an average of the aggregate amounts outstanding under our floor plan financing arrangements subject to variable interest payments during the trailing twelve months ended June 30, 2007, a 100 basis point change in interest rates would result in an approximate $11.2 million change to our annual interest expense.

We continually evaluate our exposure to interest rate fluctuations and follow established policies and procedures to implement strategies designed to manage the amount of variable rate indebtedness outstanding at any point in time in an effort to mitigate the effect of interest rate fluctuations on our earnings and cash flows. We are currently party to a swap agreement pursuant to which a notional $200.0 million of our floating rate floor plan debt was exchanged for fixed rate debt through January 2008.

Interest rate fluctuations affect the fair market value of our swaps and fixed rate debt, including the 7.75% Notes and the Convertible Notes and certain seller financed promissory notes, but, with respect to such fixed rate debt instruments, do not impact our earnings or cash flows.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rates. As of June 30, 2007, we have dealership operations in the U.K. and Germany. In each of these markets, the local currency is the functional currency. Due to our intent to remain permanently invested in these foreign markets, we do not hedge against foreign currency fluctuations. In the event we change our intent with respect to the investment in any of our international operations, we would expect to implement strategies designed to manage those risks in an effort to mitigate the effect of foreign currency fluctuations on our earnings and cash flows. A ten percent change in average exchange rates versus the U.S. Dollar would have resulted in an approximate $248.0 million change to our revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2007.

In common with other automotive retailers, we purchase certain of our new vehicle and parts inventories from foreign manufacturers. Although we purchase the majority of our inventories in the local functional currency, our business is subject to certain risks, including, but not limited to, differing economic conditions, changes in political climate, differing tax structures, other regulations and restrictions and foreign exchange rate volatility which may influence such manufacturers’ ability to provide their products at competitive prices in the local jurisdictions. Our future results could be materially and adversely impacted by changes in these or other factors.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the principal executive and financial officers, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), as of the end of the period covered by this report. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and financial officers, to allow timely discussions regarding required disclosure.

Based upon this evaluation, the Company’s principal executive and financial officers concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report. In addition, we maintain internal controls designed to provide us with the information required for accounting and financial reporting purposes. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our second quarter of 2007 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we are involved in litigation relating to claims arising in the normal course of business. Such claims may relate to litigation with customers, employment related lawsuits, class action lawsuits, purported class action lawsuits and actions brought by governmental authorities. As of June 30, 2007, we are not a party to any legal proceedings, including class action lawsuits, that, individually or in the aggregate, are reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. However, the results of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, and an unfavorable resolution of one or more of these matters could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

Item 5. Other Information

On July 2, 2007, we changed our corporate name from “United Auto Group, Inc.” to “Penske Automotive Group, Inc.” and have included an amended certificate of incorporation as an exhibit to this report. In connection with our name change, we changed our New York Stock Exchange trading symbol to “PAG”, and changed the CUSIP number of our common stock. Even though the CUSIP number has changed, the voting and other rights of our common stock have not been affected by the change in corporate name. It also has not affected in any way the validity or transferability of currently outstanding stock certificates and stockholders are not required to surrender those certificates as a result of the name change.
