NEW YORK - Camping World Holdings Inc . (NYSE:CWH) shares jumped 7.4% in after-hours trading on Monday after the recreational vehicle retailer reported third-quarter earnings and revenue that topped analyst expectations.
The Lincolnshire, Illinois-based company posted adjusted earnings per share of $0.13, beating the consensus estimate of $0.11. Revenue came in at $1.7 billion, surpassing analysts' projections of $1.64 billion.
Camping World's combined new and used same store unit sales returned to positive growth for the first time in 10 quarters. New vehicle unit sales increased 31.2% YoY to 19,943 units, while used vehicle unit sales decreased 17.9% to 14,065 units.
"Our record new unit market share is a direct result of our relentless focus on product development and affordability," said Marcus Lemonis, Chairman and CEO of Camping World. "I'm very encouraged by our October-to-date same store volume trends, with used units tracking to flat year-over-year, and new units remaining solidly up by a double-digit percentage."
Total gross profit declined 4.7% YoY to $498.5 million, with gross margin contracting 134 basis points to 28.9%. The company attributed this primarily to lower average selling prices on new and used vehicles.
