Company profile
CarMax sells, finances, and services used and new cars through a chain of over 250 used retail stores. It was formed in 1993 as a unit of Circuit City and spun off into an independent company in late 2002. Used-vehicle sales were 83% of fiscal 2025 revenue and wholesale about 17%, with the remaining portion composed of extended service plans and repair. In fiscal 2025, the company retailed and wholesaled 789,050 and 544,312 used vehicles, respectively. CarMax is the largest used-vehicle retailer in the US but still estimates that it had only about 3.7% US market share of vehicles 0-10 years old in calendar 2024. It seeks over 5% share. CarMax is based in Richmond, Virginia.

News briefing
Generated Oct 5, 2026, 11:22 AM
Why Is KMX Down Today?
CarMax shares declined 1.74% today despite a notable 14.09% increase in analyst price targets, reflecting broader market dynamics and sector headwinds. The disconnect between improved analyst sentiment and today's price action suggests investors may be digesting mixed signals from the competitive automotive retail landscape.
Bottom line: CarMax faces a mixed backdrop today: improved analyst confidence reflected in a 14.09% price target increase is being offset by sector competition and broader retail headwinds. Investors should view today's decline as a potential entry point if they believe in the analyst thesis, but remain cautious about near-term industry dynamics and consumer spending trends.
