About CarMax

CarMax operates in the U.S. retail automotive industry and is known for its large network of used car superstores. Founded in 1993 and headquartered in Richmond, Virginia, the company operates more than 230 stores nationwide.

The Allegations

The securities class action lawsuit alleges that CarMax and certain senior executives made materially false and misleading statements and failed to disclose adverse facts about the company’s growth and sales performance during the class period.

According to the complaint, CarMax attributed its positive financial results to internal business strengths such as operational efficiency and market execution, while failing to disclose that a significant portion of its sales growth was driven by a short-term surge in consumer demand related to speculation about potential U.S. auto tariffs.

On September 25, 2025, CarMax reported second-quarter fiscal 2026 results showing weaker unit sales and acknowledged that prior demand had been inflated by consumers accelerating purchases before expected tariffs. The company also noted that the temporary sales spike had led to elevated inventory levels and pricing pressures.

Following these disclosures, CarMax’s stock fell $11.50 per share, or approximately 20%, to close at $45.60 on September 25, 2025, and declined an additional 1.6% the next trading day.
