Asbury Automotive Group, Inc., a small-cap player in the retailing industry, has reached a new 52-week low of USD 195.12 on March 13, 2026. This decline marks a significant downturn for the company, which has experienced a 1-year performance drop of 15.12%, contrasting sharply with the S&P 500's gain of 20.12% during the same period. The company's market capitalization stands at USD 9,353 million, with a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 18.00. Despite a robust return on equity of 14.42%, Asbury Automotive has faced challenges, including a notable decrease in profits by 17.7% over the past year. The inventory turnover ratio has also reached a low of 7.18 times, indicating potential inefficiencies in inventory management. While the stock has shown high management efficiency with a return on capital employed (ROCE) of 11.96%, it has underperformed compared to its peers and the broader market. Asbury Automotive's price-to-book ratio is currently at 2.40, suggesting it is trading at a discount relative to historical valuations. The company has not paid dividends, maintaining a debt-to-equity ratio of 1.43, which may influence its financial stability moving forward.
