Carvana’s outlook was vague and didn't provide estimates for Q1 results.

“Looking forward, Carvana expects significant growth in both retail units sold and Adjusted EBITDA in full year 2026, including a sequential increase in both retail units sold and Adjusted EBITDA in Q1 2026, assuming the environment remains stable,” Carvana CEO Ernie Garcia III said in his shareholder letter.

Wall Street expected a Q1 adjusted EBITDA estimate of $671 million, with retail unit sales hitting 175,478.

Garcia said Q4 results were impacted by higher reconditioning costs of its vehicles, and it expects to see higher costs as well in Q1, though the company projects higher profit per unit.

“We are the fastest growing and most profitable automotive retailer. The path to selling 3 million cars per year at 13.5% Adjusted EBITDA margins by 2030-2035 is clear,” Garcia added.

Carvana's shares have been under pressure this year. In January, the stock tumbled after short seller Gotham City Research alleged Carvana overstated earnings by not fully disclosing all the benefits it received from DriveTime, a privately held used-car retailer and subprime lender owned and controlled by Ernie Garcia II, the father of Carvana’s CEO.

Gotham said those benefits inflated Carvana's earnings by about $1 billion in 2023 and 2024. Carvana has denied the allegations in Gotham City's report.
