FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., April 22, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- AutoNation, Inc. (NYSE: AN), America's largest automotive retailer, today reported first quarter 2016 net income from continuing operations of $96 million, or $0.90 per share, compared to net income from continuing operations of $112 million, or $0.97 per share, for the same period in the prior year. Net income from continuing operations for the first quarter of 2016 was negatively impacted by approximately $6.8 million after-tax, or $0.06 per share, consisting of hail-related expenses of approximately $3.6 million after-tax, or $0.03 per share, and a shift of approximately $3.2 million after-tax, or $0.03 per share, in stock-based compensation expense into the first quarter, due to a change from quarterly to annual stock option grants.
Mike Jackson, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President, said, "As we stated last quarter, the market is in a plateau environment. Industry retail sales for the quarter were flat despite year over year manufacturer incentive increases of 14%, new vehicle sales lease penetration over 30%, and high retail inventories. We still believe the industry will be above 17 million units for the year."
Acquisitions
In February 2016, AutoNation completed the previously announced acquisition of 12 stores operating in the Houston, Dallas-Fort Worth, Corpus Christi, Tyler, Ennis, and Waco, Texas markets from Allen Samuels Auto Group.
Share Repurchase
During the first quarter of 2016, AutoNation repurchased 7.9 million shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $371 million. As of April 21, 2016, AutoNation has approximately $175 million remaining Board authorization for share repurchase and 103 million shares outstanding.

- Domestic - Domestic segment income(2) was $77 million compared to year-ago segment income of $79 million, a decrease of 2%.
- Import - Import segment income(2) was $76 million compared to year-ago segment income of $75 million, an increase of 1%.
