In its own words

What could break it.

Supplier concentration

  • Dependence on automakers for new-vehicle inventory and incentivesmedium

    As a franchised dealer, Sonic's new-vehicle business depends on automotive manufacturers' inventory production levels and incentive levels (and shifts in them); a significant portion of the vehicles and parts it sells are manufactured outside the U.S.

    A significant portion of our business involves the sale of vehicles, parts or vehicles composed of parts that are manufactured outside the U.S.

Regulatory & policy

  • 2025 U.S. tariffs on imported automobiles and auto partslow

    A significant portion of Sonic's business involves vehicles and parts manufactured outside the U.S.; 2025 U.S. tariffs targeting imported automobiles and automobile parts (and retaliatory measures) could raise prices, reduce vehicle affordability and demand, and disrupt supply chains.

    In 2025, the U.S. government announced the imposition of various tariffs, including tariffs targeting imported automobiles and automobile parts and other tariffs on goods from specific countries and trading blocs.
