Description: CVNA Carvana December 04, 2025
Carvana Co. (NYSE: CVNA) runs a U.S.-focused e-commerce platform that lets consumers buy and sell used cars online, handling everything from acquisition and inspection to financing, logistics, and post-sale support, and also operates its own auction sites. Founded in 2012 and headquartered in Tempe, Arizona, the firm positions itself as a vertically integrated “one-stop shop” for used-vehicle retail.
Key recent metrics: • 2023 revenue reached $9.0 billion, up ~15 % YoY, reflecting continued unit-growth despite a softening used-car market. • Average transaction price fell to $23,200, tracking the broader decline in used-car values as new-car inventories normalize. • Inventory turnover accelerated to 5.8 times per year, indicating faster vehicle movement but also tighter working-capital cycles. Economic drivers to watch include consumer credit conditions (interest-rate hikes can suppress financing demand), residual-value risk (used-car price volatility), and the ongoing shift toward digital retail that pressures traditional franchised dealers.
