Description: RUSHA Rush Enterprises November 07, 2025

Rush Enterprises, Inc. (NASDAQ:RUSHA) operates a nationwide network of ≈130 commercial-vehicle dealerships under the “Rush Truck Centers” brand, selling new and used trucks from manufacturers such as Peterbilt, International, Ford, and Hino, and providing a full suite of aftermarket parts, service, financing, leasing, insurance, and telematics solutions to fleets, government agencies, and owner-operators across the United States and Canada.

Key performance indicators from the most recent FY 2023 filing show total revenue of roughly $2.2 billion, a net income of $78 million, and an operating margin of 4.5 %. The company’s same-store sales grew 6 % year-over-year, while its average gross profit per vehicle rose 2 % driven by higher-margin service contracts and aftermarket parts sales.

Sector-level drivers that materially affect Rush’s outlook include: (1) freight-volume growth tied to e-commerce and infrastructure spending, which historically lifts demand for Class 8 trucks; (2) the ongoing shift toward alternative-fuel powertrains (e.g., natural-gas and electric trucks), where Rush’s installation services give it a first-mover advantage; and (3) the prevailing interest-rate environment, which influences dealer financing volumes and lease uptake.
