CHARLOTTE, N.C. – August 5, 2024 – Sonic Automotive, Inc. (“Sonic Automotive,” “Sonic,” the “Company,” “we” “us” or “our”) (NYSE:SAH), one of the nation’s largest automotive retailers, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024.

Second Quarter 2024 Financial Summary

•Total revenues of $3.5 billion, down 5% year-over-year; total gross profit of $539.1 million, down 5% year-over-year

•Reported net income of $41.2 million, up 76% year-over-year ($1.18 earnings per diluted share, up 82% year-over-year)

▪Excluding these items, adjusted net income* was $51.3 million, down 22% year-over-year ($1.47 adjusted earnings per diluted share*, down 20% year-over-year)

•Total reported selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses as a percentage of gross profit of 72.9% (72.9% on a Franchised Dealerships Segment basis, 72.9% on an EchoPark Segment basis, and 73.7% on a Powersports Segment basis)

▪Total adjusted SG&A expenses as a percentage of gross profit* of 70.7% (69.9% on a Franchised Dealerships Segment basis, 77.7% on an EchoPark Segment basis, and 73.7% on a Powersports Segment basis)

•EchoPark Segment revenues of $517.3 million, down 14% year-over-year; record second quarter EchoPark Segment total gross profit of $51.1 million, up 91% year-over-year; EchoPark Segment retail used vehicle unit sales volume of 16,641, down 3% year-over-year

◦Approximately $11.6 million ($0.25 in diluted earnings per share) of the pre-tax CDK impact was related to excess compensation paid to our teammates as a result of the CDK outage, which is included as a reconciling item in the non-GAAP reconciliation tables below

Commentary

David Smith, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Sonic Automotive, stated, “I'm pleased to report that we continued to make great progress in our EchoPark Segment performance in the second quarter, with record second quarter Adjusted EBITDA* that outpaced our previous projections and sets the stage for continued growth in the second half of 2024 and beyond. Overall, the Sonic Automotive team continued to execute at a high level, despite operational challenges in the last 12 days of the second quarter as a result of the previously announced CDK Global (“CDK”) software outage. As of today, Sonic's access to the information systems provided by CDK has been restored, however we experienced operational disruptions throughout July related to the functionality of certain CDK customer lead applications, inventory management applications and related third-party application integrations with CDK. As a result of the business disruption caused by the CDK outage, we estimate our second quarter GAAP income before taxes was negatively impacted by approximately $30 million, or $0.64 in diluted earnings per share.”

Jeff Dyke, President of Sonic Automotive, commented, “Despite the short-term operational challenges associated with the CDK outage, our team remains dedicated to delivering an outstanding guest experience and executing our long-term strategic vision. Throughout the second quarter, we made great progress on our net 300 technician hiring initiative and continued to see improvement in our used vehicle business in both the Franchised Dealerships and EchoPark Segments. Given the used vehicle market's continued improvement, we maintain our guidance for positive quarterly EchoPark Segment adjusted EBITDA* for the remainder of 2024, which is expected to help mitigate the continuing effects of margin normalization in our Franchised Dealerships Segment on consolidated earnings potential.”

Heath Byrd, Chief Financial Officer of Sonic Automotive, added, “Our diversified cash flow streams continued to benefit our overall financial position in the second quarter, despite operational disruption from the CDK outage. As of June 30, 2024, we had $467 million in cash and floor plan deposits on hand, and approximately $885 million of total liquidity, before considering unencumbered real estate. We continue to maintain a conservative balance sheet approach, with the ability to deploy capital strategically as market conditions evolve.”

Actual results may differ. See “Forward-Looking Statements.”

NYSE SAH Strategic Focus – Franchised Dealerships Segment (continued) 7 Fixed Operations And F&I • Target increasing technician headcount by 300 in FY 2024, projected to generate approximately $100M in incremental annualized fixed operations gross profit (headcount increased by 131 technicians year-to-date) • Fixed operations parts and labor cost inflation is generally passed along to customers, supporting stable fixed operations profit margins over time • Vehicle affordability challenges may drive consumers to choose to repair their current vehicle to extend its life rather than replace it with a newer vehicle, benefitting fixed operations revenues • F&I gross profit per unit increased nearly 50% from FY 2019 to FY 2023, driven primarily by higher warranty contract penetration rates • We believe F&I GPU will remain structurally higher than pre- pandemic • Even in an elevated interest rate environment, finance contract penetration rates remain robust and are supported by manufacturer financing or lease incentives only available at franchised dealerships $1,620 $1,846 $2,160 $2,453 $2,403 $2,516 $2,380 77.4% 77.9% 77.6% 72.9% 71.2% 71.7% 72.1% 38.4% 40.9% 44.4% 49.4% 48.9% 50.3% 48.1% FY 2019 FY 2020 FY 2021 FY 2022 FY 2023 Q2 2023 Q2 2024 F&I Gross Profit Per Unit and Product Penetration Rates F&I GPU Finance Contract Penetration Rate Warranty Penetration Rate $669 $595 $673 $787 $853 $215 $219 49.0% 49.8% 50.2% 49.5% 49.7% 49.7% 50.4% FY 2019 FY 2020 FY 2021 FY 2022 FY 2023 Q2 2023 Q2 2024 Fixed Operations Gross Profit and Gross Margin % Fixed Operations Gross Profit (Millions) Fixed Operations Gross Margin % Note: Technician headcount, fixed operations profit margin and F&I GPU are estimates of future results.

NYSE SAH Strategic Focus – Franchised Dealerships Segment (continued) Hybrid vs. Electric Vehicle Trends • Industry sales volume penetration rates for combined hybrid electric vehicles (HEV) and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV) are nearly double the penetration rates for battery electric vehicles (BEV) and are trending upward • We believe there is an easier path to consumer adoption of alternative power trains as more manufacturers expand their hybrid vehicle model offerings • Hybrid new vehicle GPU was higher than internal combustion engine (ICE) new vehicle GPU in our import and domestic brands, and marginally lower in our luxury brands • BEV new vehicle GPU lags both hybrid and ICE vehicles, resulting in BEV sales negatively impacting total new vehicle GPU by approximately $170 in Q2 2024 (improved from $400 in Q1 2024) • Initial BEV repair and maintenance trends show lower frequency but higher gross profit per repair order vs. ICE vehicles, while hybrid vehicles create opportunity to service both types of power trains • Ongoing investment in BEV repair and maintenance capabilities (e.g. heavy-duty vehicle lifts, battery removal and storage needs, technician training) • Over 90% of Sonic’s franchised dealerships are equipped with electric vehicle charging capabilities 15.6% 7.4% Ja n- 19 M ay -1 9 Se p- 19 Ja n- 20 M ay -2 0 Se p- 20 Ja n- 21 M ay -2 1 Se p- 21 Ja n- 22 M ay -2 2 Se p- 22 Ja n- 23 M ay -2 3 Se p- 23 Ja n- 24 M ay -2 4 Hybrid Vehicle vs. EV Industry Sales Volume Penetration Hybrid (HEV/PHEV) Penetration % BEV Penetration % So ur ce : M or ga n St an le y Re se ar ch 8 100% Luxury Import Domestic Total Sonic Q2 2024 Average New Vehicle GPU by Power Train BEV Hybrid ICE Average New Vehicle GPU Note: Average new vehicle GPU shown as a percentage of average GPU for each brand group and segment total.

NYSE SAH Strategic Focus – EchoPark Segment • Returned to positive segment adjusted EBITDA* of $7.3 Million in Q1 2024 and $7.2 Million in Q2 2024 after 3 years of industry- driven headwinds • Focus on leveraging retail sales volume momentum and improving used market backdrop to generate positive adjusted EBITDA* and significant year-over-year adjusted EBITDA* growth in FY 2024 • Expect to resume disciplined expansion of EchoPark footprint once used vehicle market conditions are supportive • Long-term goal to reach 90% of the U.S. population • Below-market pricing and no-haggle, transparent guest experience expected to drive market share gains EchoPark Strategy * Refer to appendix for calculation and reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure).

NYSE SAH Strategic Focus – EchoPark Segment (continued) 10 • Anticipate positive retail used vehicle GPU throughout FY 2024 due to faster inventory turns and stability in wholesale and retail prices and used car supply • Maintain focus on optimizing F&I product offerings and pricing to drive F&I GPU growth in FY 2024 • Expect used vehicle wholesale and retail prices to continue to gradually decline throughout FY 2024, reducing inventory acquisition costs and potentially driving incremental industry sales volume as consumer affordability improves • Used vehicle supply is projected to reach its lowest point in 2025, due to lower levels of off-lease inventory as a result of declines in new vehicle industry sales volume since 2020 and fewer lease originations, however, off-rental supply is improving which may provide an alternate source of inventory to mitigate the impact of fewer lease maturities • Beyond 2025, gradual expansion of used vehicle supply and further normalization of used vehicle pricing should drive consumer demand and higher retail sales volume for EchoPark EchoPark Strategy $20.7 $10.7 $(47.8) $(105.4) $(83.0) $(31.8) $7.2 $2,296 $2,013 $1,762 $2,657 $2,183 $1,569 $3,078 FY 2019 FY 2020 FY 2021 FY 2022 FY 2023 Q2 2023 Q2 2024 EchoPark Segment Adjusted EBITDA* and Total GPU (Used GPU + F&I GPU) Adjusted EBITDA* (Millions) Total GPU Source: J.D.

NYSE SAH Sonic Automotive FY 2024 Outlook • Expect low single digit percentage growth in revenues and mid single digit percentage decline in gross profit, driven by: • Continued normalization of new vehicle GPU, potentially exiting 2024 in the $3,000 per unit range, with >60 days’ supply by Q4 2024 • Low single digit percentage growth in new and used retail sales volume, consistent with industry SAAR outlook • Mid single digit percentage growth in fixed operations gross profit • Low single digit percentage F&I gross profit growth, driven by higher retail unit volume and flat F&I GPU near $2,400 per unit • Expect adjusted SG&A expenses as a % of gross profit* in low 70% range Consolidated • Expect lower Franchised Dealerships Segment earnings to be partially offset by higher earnings in our EchoPark and Powersports Segments • Expect $15-20 million increase in annual floor plan interest expense due to higher new inventory levels and higher average interest rates vs. FY 2023 • Earnings per share results will be primarily dependent upon rate of normalization of new vehicle GPU and rate of EchoPark profitability improvement Franchised Dealerships Segment EchoPark Segment • Achieved positive adjusted EBITDA* of $7.3 million in Q1 2024 and $7.2 million in Q2 2024, and remain confident in ability to maintain positive quarterly adjusted EBITDA* for the remainder of FY 2024, driven by: • Organic growth opportunities at existing store footprint, driven by higher unit volume throughput per store and positive used vehicle GPU • Expect low double digit percentage F&I GPU growth year-over-year • Expect SG&A expenses as a % of gross profit in the 80% range (target below 70% at maturity) Powersports Segment • Expect FY 2024 adjusted EBITDA* between $10-$13 million, with majority coming in Q3 (Q1 & Q4 near breakeven due to seasonality) * Refer to appendix for calculation and reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure).
