Lithia Motors Declares $0.10 per Share Dividend for Second Quarter 2012
MEDFORD, OR — Lithia Motors, Inc. (NYSE: LAD) this week reported 2012 second quarter adjusted income from continuing operations of $19.9 million, or $0.76 per diluted share. This compares to a 2011 second quarter adjusted income from continuing operations of $14.4 million, or $0.54 per diluted share. Unadjusted net income from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2012 was $20.5 million or $0.78 per diluted share, compared to $14.7 million or $0.55 per diluted share for 2011.
As shown in the attached non-GAAP reconciliation table, the 2012 second quarter adjusted income from continuing operations is reduced to exclude a benefit of $0.02 per share for a non-core tax attribute. The 2011 second quarter adjusted results from continuing operations exclude a benefit of $0.01 per share for a tax item.
Second quarter 2012 revenue from continuing operations increased $174.6 million, or 26% to $847.1 million, compared to $672.5 million in the second quarter of 2011.

“We remain focused on improving our operations and increasing our market share,” said Bryan DeBoer, President and CEO. “I’m proud of the results our team delivered in the second quarter. With that said, we still have opportunities in all facets of our business and our leaders continue to identify areas where performance can improve. Additionally, in many of our western markets, the new vehicle sales recovery has lagged national levels. This factor will serve as a future catalyst for growth.”

Corporate Development
On April 30, 2012, Lithia purchased a Chevrolet Cadillac store in Bellingham, Washington with estimated annual revenues of $40 million. On June 12, 2012, Lithia purchased GMC and Buick franchises in Fairbanks, Alaska, to combine with our Chevrolet store in the community. On June 25, 2012, Lithia was awarded Dodge and Ram franchises and opened a store in Las Cruces, New Mexico. Estimated annual revenues from the Fairbanks and Las Cruces franchises are $35 million.
Commenting on the acquisition activity, DeBoer said, “In the second quarter, we were able to identify several opportunities that fit our core strategy of seeking exclusive franchises in our markets. I am excited to welcome our new employees to the family.”

Balance Sheet Update
Lithia ended the second quarter with $16 million in cash and $76 million in available credit on our credit facilities. In total, this represents approximately $92 million in available liquidity.
