Penske Automotive: Resilient Despite Auto Tariffs
PAG reported solid Q2 results with EPS growth and margin expansion, driven by cost discipline and a resilient service/parts business.

Service and parts drive the majority of gross profit, providing stability despite macro headwinds and muted new/used car sales.
