OPENLANE Revs up on Q2 Figures

OPENLANE, Inc. (NYSE: KAR) blasted out of the blocks Wednesday, on reporting its second quarter financial results for the period ended June 30, 2025.
"OPENLANE delivered a very strong second quarter, growing auction fee revenue by 24%, delivering $87 million in Adjusted EBITDA and generating $87 million in Adjusted Free Cash Flow," said CEO Peter Kelly.
"The growing strength, presence and preference of the OPENLANE brand was evidenced by 21% dealer volume growth, double-digit increases in unique buying and selling dealers and dealer market share gains achieved during the quarter. Looking ahead, we remain well positioned to benefit from the ongoing industry transition from physical to digital and the anticipated increase in off-lease supply beginning in 2026."
Said CFO Brad Herring, "OPENLANE is successfully executing our 2025 plan and longer-term strategy. Our second quarter results further reinforce the strong scalability characteristics of our asset-light, digital operating model, and I am very pleased that the marketplace segment now represents 51% of our consolidated Adjusted EBITDA.
“I believe our performance and the investments we continue to make in people, technology and our go-to-market approach help position us to deliver sustained growth, profitability and shareholder value."
KAR shares began Wednesday ahead $1.89, or 7.5%, to $27.00
