Now I will turn the call over to Marshall. Marshall? Thank you, Will. Good morning, everyone, and thank you for joining us today. As of 31st August, we reached our one year anniversary of our landmark acquisition of RideNow, and we are proud of the achievements we've made in the last 12+ months. We've positioned ourselves as a leader in the new and used powersports market, expanded to 55 retail locations with a management structure to drive success. We established ourselves as the go-to partner for the major manufacturers and are continuing to develop tools, technology, and processes to meaningfully improve the customer experience, all while positioning ourselves for long-term growth and profitability. I look forward to more significant improvements to come as we continue to build the future of powersports. In the third quarter, we made solid progress and continued to demonstrate our market leadership. While we saw anticipated and previously discussed seasonal impacts across our business, we sold well over 18,000 powersports units in Q3 and generated over $385 million in revenue from the powersports segment alone. Powersports segment results exceeded our prior expectations. Our overall results were impacted by our strategic decision to purchase fewer automotive units during the quarter due to high wholesale costs, unstable valuations, increasing freight costs, and a shift in how used wholesale auto distribution takes place. Due to what we see as permanent structural changes in the post-COVID wholesale auto business, we are exploring strategic alternatives for this segment and expect to execute our plans in the coming months. This does not impact our profitable vehicle logistics segment, Wholesale Express. Our automotive segment has become an increasingly smaller portion of our overall business. We are fortunate to have the luxury to effect a transition and emphasize our focus on our core business assets. I'd like to focus today's call on the following three important topics. First, we remain focused on our number one objective, improving the customer experience, and our results demonstrate that we continue to take market share due to the early improvements we've already made. Second, we are building a generational company and will continue to invest thoughtfully in technology, facilities, people, and process. Finally, we continue to see resilience across our customer base, and we're taking steps to act nimbly and responsibly to ensure we are meeting customer demand while managing potential risk. I'll take a few minutes to discuss these themes, and then I'll pass the call over to Narinder to walk through the details of our third quarter financial results and our revised guidance for the full year 2022 before opening the call for questions. First, improving customer experience. Our early success in transforming the customer experience is clear and encouraging. In addition to continued execution, we took home multiple Dealer of the Year awards in the quarter and throughout the year. We believe these awards validate our enhanced consumer offering and provide tangible proof that our efforts to improve the typical powersports transaction are paying off. I'd like to recognize the incredible work of our team members for always putting the customer first, focusing on the lifetime value of our customers, and embodying our mission. We sold 17,481 retail powersports units in the third quarter amid macro uncertainty. We've clearly continued to take market share and are pleased with our results in the early days of scaling this incredible opportunity. As the first mover and driven by the best people, technology, and processes, we believe we will be the market's dominant participant for years to come. An important component of a superior consumer offering is unifying the customer experience across online and in-store locations. We have fully integrated RideNow and Freedom into RumbleOn and look forward to debuting RideNow as our unified brand across all of our consumer-facing properties by year-end. The name RideNow is a commanding call to action that we believe has become synonymous with powersports. Paramount to our mission of improving customer experience will be the execution of a complete end-to-end digital transaction via our websites. Our vision is to allow customers who live beyond our store's geographic reach to access, research, and purchase from our unparalleled selection of inventory, including the opportunity to consult with our team of powersports experts if the consumer so chooses, culminating in home delivery. This will not only be the first e-commerce offering in powersports, but the majority of those anticipated transactions will also be incremental, further increasing our market share. Investing in our vision. We are investing in technology, facilities, people, and processes while remaining agile to react to any potential escalation of economic headwinds. Developing the technology stack to support 55 physical locations and a seamless online experience is a key initiative for us, and we've made great strides this year. We expect full digital inventory integration via an all-new corporate website and a whole new experience on ridenow.com to be completed very soon, enabling consumers to easily shop nationwide. This is the next step towards our ultimate goal of launching our digital, 100% paperless end-to-end buying experience in 2023. RumbleOn's evolving omni-channel experience will bring together the largest inventory in a no-hassle format without boundaries for the consumer and will be the next leg up of organic growth for the company. We are growing our team of experienced tech experts, including our new CTO, who brings 20+ years of technology implementation and platform experience. We've also made hires across product management, software architecture, information security, and network operations. Beyond our technology team, we made dozens of strategic hires across our organization, including finance, facilities, project management, and brand marketing. We are attracting and retaining top talent and look forward to benefiting from productivity gains as we advance our strategic initiatives. We're continuing to build our fulfillment network for faster and more efficient processing of new and used powersports, as well as parts and merchandise inventory. Increasing this capacity will free up the service departments in our stores to focus on faster and more pleasant customer experience. Fulfillment also allows for consistent inspection, reconditioning, photo, and video, which will enhance the customer interface key to our digital end-to-end sales initiative. As we discussed on our last call, we've launched operations in two fulfillment facilities this year, Concord, North Carolina, and Orlando, Florida, and are encouraged by the initial results. We are testing public access to our Orlando warehouse, offering the largest selection of inventory of all makes and models with a warehouse look and feel. Based on our initial customer response in Orlando, we believe there is a significant opportunity to employ this model in additional facilities and become part of our ongoing strategy. We have recently secured a new fulfillment location in Pennsylvania that will open next year. This will be our first physical location in the Northeast, providing access to a massive population in a region where we have always acquired a significant portion of our used inventory. Ultimately, we will manage every product we sell through fulfillment, like almost all major retailers do today. Industry-wide showrooms and service departments are limited by their available space, with constraints primarily due to the size of the products in the fastest-growing categories such as side-by-sides and personal watercraft. Our fulfillment plan is substantially more efficient and cost-effective and reduces the need for significant CapEx investments in our 50+ physical locations. Our vision includes fixed pricing and no fees where our customers interact with a customer service representative and transact on an iPad instead of a traditional sales process with the antiquated and hated hassle of long negotiations with multiple departments and staff. Everything we sell is a want, not a need. Our customers enjoy our products for their next adventure and fun is at the core of the experience. We believe the entire buying experience online or in-store should be the same, fun. We are creating a true destination for powersports enthusiasts and continue to make good progress towards our goal of launching our first ever customer experience center in Dallas in 2023. We added multiple franchise brands from several manufacturers to our current locations and will continue to do so. Our best performing stores continue to be those that represent a broad array of products and manufacturers. This vector of organic growth, direct award of a franchise from a manufacturer, has significant return potential as we don't pay for the franchise if it is awarded from the OEM. Our current focus is on organic growth of our existing locations and fulfillment center network. While we plan to make prudent high return investments in inorganic growth in the future, we are extremely selective and will continue to exercise discipline in that regard as the current uncertainties in economic conditions stabilize, which could cause costs of future acquisitions to improve. Lastly, I would be remiss not to address how we are seeing the current macro environment impact consumer demand. Our robust selection of inventory is a clear advantage for RumbleOn. While demand for our offering is proving resilient, certain trends are beginning to surface, for the most part in regards to vehicle type and price point. We saw continued strong demand in some segments such as new utility vehicles and used motorcycles. We are closely monitoring the economic headwinds, and we are not currently seeing softening in demand at levels others have discussed. We believe our diverse product mix, combined with our parts, accessories, merchandise, service, and finance program, leave us well positioned to continue to capture profitable market share amidst various demand environments. For new vehicle supply, manufacturing supply chain issues appear to be rapidly improving for the first time since the onset of COVID. In the third quarter, OEMs shipped more vehicles, albeit at higher prices, in order to replenish supply. Showroom inventory levels, which were not expected to normalize until late in 2023 at the earliest, as quoted by many of our manufacturer partners, are now fast approaching those levels. While we were surprised by the pace of inventory replenishment in the last 60 days or so, we are glad to have better selection for our customers and are managing days of supply by manufacturer very closely. We will work with OEMs to achieve normalized inventory targets of the right units for the right markets and in the right quantities. We do anticipate seeing maximum inventory levels of some products, makes, and models in the very near future. Turning to used, access to high-quality used inventory is key to our model. Like in new, disciplined days of supply is being monitored very closely as potential shifts in the macro environment play out. In October, we announced a $75 million used powersports vehicle inventory financing credit facility from JPMorgan Chase, giving us the flexibility to fund our inventory purchases while executing on our mission and growth plans. Our business model affords us flexibility to move rapidly in reaction to market changes, and we are continually monitoring the macro environment and the consumer sentiment. We are being deliberate and prudently managing operations to maintain optionality and mitigate potential risk. We cannot control the macro environment, but we are confident in our model as we execute on strategic priorities. Our differentiated positioning, emphasis on better customer experience, superior offerings, and current market share, combined with our talented team's operational rigor, will enable us to deliver long-term profitable growth for our shareholders. We are improving the customer experience, and I'm proud of the progress thus far. I'll now turn the call over to Narinder, who will take you through the details of our financial performance. Thank you, Marshall, and good morning, everyone. Please refer to our earnings press release and third quarter Form 10-Q to be filed later today for full details of the quarter. As a reminder, we closed our acquisition of RideNow Powersports on 31st August 2021, and therefore, we will lap the acquisition impact in the fourth quarter. Unless otherwise specified, all of the third quarter comparisons cited in my remarks today are sequential comparisons. Now moving on to some key highlights. We're pleased to report solid results for the third quarter, with seasonally impacted revenue and gross profit from the Powersports segment. Despite a tough macroeconomic backdrop, we saw healthy consumer demand in this segment in the third quarter. While we are not immune to macro headwinds, we remain prepared to respond quickly and prudently to evolving conditions. In the third quarter, we sold 19,908 total units, down 14.7% sequentially due to our decision to purchase less automotive inventory combined with the typical seasonal impact experienced in Powersports. We sold 18,393 total Powersports units. Sequential declines of 11.2% in total Powersports and 12.9% in used retail Powersports were ahead of our prior expectations. We delivered total revenue of $470.3 million, down 13.9% sequentially, driven primarily by a nearly 40% decline in revenue in the Automotive segment. Powersports segment revenue of $385.4 million declined 7.1% sequentially attributable to expected seasonality. Revenue from finance and insurance net was down 14.3%, while revenue from parts, service, and accessories sales declined 4.7% from the second quarter. Total gross profit for the third quarter was $116.3 million, down 15.7% from the second quarter. Total gross profit margin was 24.7%, down from 25.3% in the prior quarter. As we had anticipated, the sequential decline in gross profit margin was driven by ongoing normalization of the supply-demand imbalances that have inflated GPU in recent history and was further exacerbated by a 60+% decline in Automotive segment gross profit. As Marshall mentioned, we made a strategic decision to purchase fewer automotive units during the quarter due to high wholesale costs in the auto market, resulting in lower gross profit per automotive vehicle. While moderating our activity in the Automotive segment negatively impacted our total revenue and gross profit dollars in the third quarter, trends in the Powersports segment partially offset this impact. Further, excluding the automotive segment, gross profit margin would have been 28.6% in the third quarter, demonstrating the earnings potential of our core business. We have conviction in our decision to begin exploring strategic alternatives for the automotive segment so we can focus on our core powersports and vehicle logistics segments. As we have previously discussed, we anticipate modest margin contraction as we focus on sales volume and growing market share. We are not currently seeing any measurable reduction in demand indicators for our powersports segment, so we continue to fulfill this demand while optimizing our inventory mix. Total SG&A expenses were $96.2 million, or 20.5% of revenue, compared to $100.2 million or 18.3% of revenue in the second quarter. Declines in SG&A are primarily attributable to seasonal volume declines as well as reduction in the variable compensation expense and advertising and marketing expense lines. SG&A as a percentage of revenue increased quarter-over-quarter due to the decline in revenue combined with headcount additions and facilities investments Marshall previously discussed. While we have levers to pull to reduce certain expenditures, the investments we are making will provide the foundation for long-term sustainable growth as we continue to scale RumbleOn. As we have previously discussed, we do not expect leverage from SG&A expenses this year. Within SG&A, total stock-based compensation was approximately $2.6 million, down from $2.8 million in the second quarter. Adjusted net income was $4.4 million and adjusted diluted earnings per share was $0.27. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share were $34.1 million and $2.14, respectively. Adjusted EBITDA was $25.7 million in the third quarter, down 42.1% over the second quarter, driven by modest gross profit margin compression in the powersports segment and lower gross profit contribution from the automotive segment. Adjusted EBITDA was $101.4 million year to date, or 6.9% of revenue. Year to date, we have generated $4.7 million in cash flow from operations. This was negatively impacted by cash used primarily for used inventory purchases, which were not financed by trade floor plan credit facilities. As of 30th September, cash and cash equivalents, including restricted cash, was $49.2 million. Our total liquidity, defined as cash and cash equivalents, including restricted cash plus availability under our short-term revolving credit facilities totaled approximately $193.8 million. With the closing of our $75 million used vehicle floor plan financing facility, we have built the option to provide additional liquidity. Our top capital allocation priority remains to invest in our business, and we will balance our investments with a continuing focus on profitability and cash generation. Now turning to outlook. We anticipate both sequential and year-over-year growth in our powersports and vehicle logistics segments. Our activity around automotive will be muted for the remainder of the year due to our decision to explore strategic alternatives for this segment, and we therefore expect sequential declines in unit volume, revenue, and gross profit in this segment. Further, our outlook is based on the consumer demand trends we are seeing today and reflects our assumptions for continued resiliency throughout the remainder of the year. We will make responsible investments that factor in macro conditions as we continue to stay focused on building a scalable organization. As outlined previously, we do not expect leverage in SG&A for the remainder of the year. As such, we are revising our full year 2022 outlook to account for the strength in our powersports segment, which will be partially offset by anticipated decline in the automotive segment. Total company revenue within the range of $1.85 billion-$1.9 billion, with powersports segment revenue of at least $1.5 billion. Note that prior total company revenue outlook implied a revenue outlook of $1.45 billion for the powersports segment at the midpoint. Performance expectations in the powersports segment assume growth in the used retail powersports units to be in excess of 50% year-over-year, with low single-digit decline in new powersports units year-over-year normalized for the Freedom acquisition. We now expect non-powersports segments, which includes automotive and vehicle logistics revenue within the range of $350 million-$400 million, driven by anticipated volume declines in the automotive segment. The prior full year revenue outlook range for non-powersports segments was approximately $500 million. As we have indicated previously, we expect modest gross margin compression due to the combination of input cost inflation and availability of new inventory, which helps to address the supply and demand imbalance. As a result of these dynamics, we now expect adjusted EBITDA of at least $125 million for the full year. Our revised adjusted EBITDA outlook is due to expected lower realized gross margin in the automotive segment. Anticipated modest gross margin compression in the Powersports segment and continued expectation of ongoing organic investments and integration costs resulting in no SG&A leverage for the remainder of this year. We will provide 2023 guidance on our next earnings call. However, we would like to take this opportunity to share our confidence that the initiatives we are currently undertaking will drive continued growth in our core Powersports business. 2022 has been about building a solid foundation. As we look ahead to 2023, we expect to continue to deliver profitable growth while making organic and inorganic investments in areas that we believe will drive the most long-term value for all of our stakeholders. I will now pass the call back to Marshall for closing remarks before we open the call for questions. Thank you, Narinder. Before we open the call to questions, we announced this morning that we've reached a global settlement of all current and any other potential or future claims with Mark Tkach and Bill Coulter, the former owners of RideNow. While neither expressed a present intention to sell any RumbleOn stock, the settlement does provide a mechanism for the orderly disposition of RumbleOn shares. It is important to RumbleOn and its stockholders to have these matters resolved, and we are pleased to have Bill and Mark continue as stockholders of the company. I'll conclude my remarks by reiterating that our results demonstrate the resiliency of our diversified business model despite the uncertainty in the macro environment. We are building the future of Powersports, and we will remain focused on achieving our long-term goals while delivering an unparalleled customer experience through our unique omni-channel offering. Thanks again to the entire RumbleOn team for all of the hard work and dedication to our mission. Operator, we're ready for questions. Thank you. Excuse me. At this time, we'll be conducting a question-and-answer session. If you'd like to ask a question, please press star one on your telephone keypad. A confirmation tone will indicate your line is in the question queue. You may press star two if you'd like to remove your question from the queue. For participants using speaker equipment, it may be necessary to pick up your handset before pressing the star keys. One moment, please, while we poll for questions. Our first question comes from Eric Wold with B. Riley Securities. Please proceed with your question. Thank you. Good morning, Marshall and Narinder. A few questions, if I may. I guess first off, Narinder, one for you, just on the guidance you provided. I know you reduced the EBITDA guidance from $145 million to $125 million and commented on the reasons for that, but the press release didn't mention the $20 million investment that you'd normally expected to spend this year or previously expected to spend this year. Is that still inclusive of $20 million, or is that $20 million dollars not Yeah, thanks, Eric, for the question. Good question to clarify. The $125 million is inclusive of the investments we are making, so we are not backing that out from our guidance. To give you- It's still 20. Yes. To give you a little bit more color on that, so year to date, the investment that is flowing through the operating expense line is about $13 million. In addition to that, if you look at the balance sheet, we have about $10.5 million capitalized for the investments in facilities and technology. You know, we will continue to expect, you know, this to continue in the fourth quarter. There's no reason to pull back on these investments as these are for the longer term, you know, foundation building and scaling of the company. I also wanna make a note that what you also see in the SG&A expense, and we don't back this out, so I wanna remind everyone that there are some purchase accounting adjustments that run through the operating expenses, because of the acquisition accounting, purchase accounting that we have to do. That you would recall that we had made some changes on the leases, which essentially results in incremental expense kind of flowing through the facilities line, which obviously, we're not backing out. That is there as well. Perfect. That's good to hear. Thank you. I guess Marshall, a couple questions just on kind of the overall environment. I know you talked about you're not seeing kind of the broad-based weakness in demand for Powersports. Maybe talk about where you are possibly seeing some weakness. You know, are you seeing it regionally at all? Are you seeing it on a trade down in price? Seeing it kind of lower price point, product? Are you seeing any difficulty in consumers getting financing? Maybe just anything that kind of shows where things may be changing, or if you're not seeing that, then you're not. Yeah, no, we're definitely seeing some. I mean, you know, what the guidance we're giving today is really based on, you know, what we have seen through third quarter, but as well as October. You know, the demand, the showroom traffic, the online traffic, et cetera, we're not seeing diminish at any measurable levels. I think obviously the consumer is under pressure, right? The consumer is under pressure on financing rates. Prices are increasing both on the goods we sell, as well as everything else the consumer is dealing with. You know, we have a what I would call a recession playbook, Eric, and you know, we have deployed pieces of it already just in what we're seeing. That's pretty clear. But we will deploy whatever necessary as we move forward. Right now, outside of my comments with regards to inventory, we don't see any need for any knee-jerk reaction at this point. Got it. Just final question from me. Are you talking about some of the guidance includes some kind of marginal pressure on gross margins in the powersports vehicle? Kinda what leverage do you have to kind of maintain gross margin and hold the line? I know that you can kind of adjust what you're purchasing out there and what you pay for a product and bring into the showrooms and recondition, but what about maybe inventory that's already on the floor in hand? What can you do to try to maintain this gross margin if you are seeing some pressure from auto consumers? Yeah, good question. You know, we've said all along that, you know, at some point as showroom inventories normalize, that there would be, you know, a normalization of GPU as well. The new side is purely, I think an inventory versus demand question. As I pointed out in my comments, you know, I think everybody, including ourselves, had an unknown answer to supply chain challenges. I think everybody extrapolated that out to where this was not gonna correct itself for, you know, anytime in the near future, at least through 2023, and it certainly has at this point. We think we'll continue to see an opportunity for increased volume on the new vehicle side, but could have some normalization on the GPU, and we are expecting that. As you can see in our third quarter numbers, I mean, it wasn't dramatic by any means from Q2, which is always the best quarter, and we didn't have as many economic headwinds. The used, I think, you know, the management of our used margin, we are still not in control of. Once we have the technology, which we're very close on, to be able to centralize this inventory and control fixed pricing, we think there's some long-term opportunity actually on GPU on the used. But right now, because it's still done the old-fashioned way, where kind of each store is setting their prices, and we just think that, you know, it could experience some pressure. There has to be a relief valve, right? When the price is higher, the interest rate is higher to the consumer, it has to show up somewhere and along with higher prices, right? That's, you know, that's really what we see. We do expect some normalization. Perfect. Thank you both. Our next question is from Seth Basham with Wedbush Securities. Please proceed with your question. Thanks a lot, and good morning. My first question is a follow-up on the last response. When you're thinking about normalized used and new powersports GPU, what are you aiming for in 2023 and 2024? Do you expect those to be normal years? Well, we haven't given guidance in that regard, Seth, but we don't see, you know, any need for adjustments with regards to used. It's kind of a different animal. On the new vehicle side, we would expect that to normalize. I wouldn't utilize pre-COVID GPU at this point because the mix of the products that we sell is dramatically different today. You know, when you look at the fastest-growing segments being, you know, side by sides and that off-road category, those are some of the better margins that we have. Got it. Somewhere north of pre-COVID, GPUs on the new side and on the used side. In the near term, you expect additional pressure likely into 2023. Longer term, you see opportunity for improvement. Correct. You know, you saw some, you know, a lot of times, we don't put a lot of emphasis on our other categories, be it parts, accessories, merchandise, and service. But when you look at the total gross profit makeup of the company, it's very well-balanced between those categories. We are not seeing pressure on those categories, which kind of is, I think, normal, at least it was my experience in the automobile business, that, if people are in a position where they can't, or they don't wanna trade today, it does typically drive some offset in your service department. Got it. Thank you. A follow-up question is just on the auto segment. You're considering strategic alternatives there. What are the structural changes that you see in the wholesale auto industry right now leading you to that decision? I appreciate the question because I was hoping I would be asked that. You know, I think, Seth, you're aware that we have a lot of automotive knowledge within our management team. We think that. Keep in mind, we were only in the wholesale business. The way the redistribution of wholesale has changed, primarily due to technology, I believe it had started prior to COVID, but what happened in my estimation is that COVID accelerated it. I think the opportunity to, in a very skinny margin business, to operate basically a wholesale arbitrage play in the supply chain, we just don't anticipate it's coming back, just to be totally clear. We think that this was not just a COVID effect, that everything will go back to normal. You know, if you look at, I mean, you see it, you follow a lot of the auto companies. You know, if you think back to the makeup of an auction inventory pre-COVID, it was made up of rental cars, off lease, fleets, those types of things. Because of technology and the fact that a lot of them were shut down during COVID, everybody is now redistributing those products upstream with the use of technology. I think just the whole structural wholesale and supply chain for pre-owned automobiles is changing, and we have the luxury to do something different, and we're gonna take that advantage. When we were making good money in the wholesale business, there was no reason to consider it, because we didn't dedicate a lot of time or effort to it. As you know, you know, businesses become more challenging. They do require more effort on the management team, and we just feel that being focused on powersports is definitely in our best interest. That's helpful perspective. Lastly, as it relates to the integration of RideNow, including all technology integration to help with centralized inventory and pricing, where are you relative to your expectations when you closed the transaction? Are you on track, and when do you expect to complete that? We will have a lot of it completed in 2023. I would tell you from my personal perspective, we're probably a little behind where I was hopeful of being, and the reason for that is because of some other priorities that are very, very important. You know, we've talked to you before about, you know, this was our first year of SOX compliance as an example. All these different things that have taken up a fairly small technology team's efforts to be able to do this. We're very, very pleased with what is available. The nice part about it is when this website and websites are launched, now everyone will be able to see what the next consumer experience of an online powersports sale is going to look like. It will be rolled out in phases, but you will see it very, very soon, and you'll see the results of a lot of hard work of a lot of people, both internal and external. Got it. Thank you, and good luck. Thanks, Seth. Appreciate it. Our next question is from Michael Baker with D.A. Davidson. Please proceed with your question. Thanks. Okay, it's still not entirely clear to me, maybe I'm a little dense, but in the prepared comments, Marshall, you talked about seeing some signs of, you know, concern, yet you keep saying that, you know, demand and all that is strong. Again, one more time, what are those signs of concerns? Is that the gross margin issue that you're referring to? That, you know, pricing has maybe come down a little bit relative to input costs? Or is it, you know, a mix thing, trade down to different kinds of vehicles? I'm still not entirely sure what you meant by that comment that you're starting to see some signs of macro concerns. Okay. Good question. I'll try to be a little clearer. I think that, you know, we are seeing some issues with regards to mix. All right. You know, our higher-end units, which you can kind of see from our ASP, our higher-end units continue to be in high demand. We are seeing some softening in the lower priced segment. I think that runs along with, you know, a lot of those end up being cash transactions because of the price point, and I think people are, you know, in a different cash position today than they might have been. We're also basically seeing that the price increases from the manufacturers, which are due to the same, you know, headwinds in their regard, are continuing to cause some issues for our customers. I mean, when you increase the cost and you increase the interest rate in a short window of time, you know, it does take some people out of the mix. Well, we don't see a decrease in demand. What we see is, as these prices rise and interest rates rise, et cetera, there is situations where people can't afford the product. You know, that will normalize over time, but we're certainly seeing that. When you say no decline in demand, but you're seeing some softness, does that mean the conversion is down a little bit? When you're talking about demand, is that- Correct. Okay. I got you. Yeah. Um- I would say, yeah, I'd say it's conversion because as we said before, you know, we track showroom traffic and online traffic, and we are not seeing any, you know. It's some regional shifting there, but we aren't seeing it in any type of meaningful numbers. Understood. Thanks. Then can you just remind us how much of your sales typically or even industry-wide sales in your view are done with financing? So how much of, you know, this high interest rate environment do you think will impact you? If you look at it overall, it's north of 60%. Okay. All right. That's a pretty big number. Last question from me. I think I read this right, but it sounds like, just want to clarify, your guidance for new sales is a little bit better, right? It's down low single digits. It was down, as I recall, in the second quarter. The previous outlook was down mid-single digits. Is that a function of inventory being better? Yeah. This is Narinder here. Yes, that's correct. We have a better expectation on volume on the new side. We are expecting low single digits. You're exactly right. I would point out what we tried to point out in the previous notes is the downturn in retail sales as reported by the manufacturers that have already announced. We're not at that level. You have to extract that we are gaining market share because we don't have a downturn to what is being reported. Understood. All right, I appreciate the call. Thank you. Bye. Thank you. Our next question is from Frederick Wightman with Wolfe Research. Please proceed with your question. Hey, guys. Good morning. I was hoping you could just dig into and unpack some of the inventory numbers. I mean, that's a pretty big move sequentially, and I know that there is some seasonality at play. It sounds like that came back a bit faster than what you were expecting, so can you talk about where that growth is coming from and sort of what the outlook is as we think about moving into 4Q and early next year? Yeah. I appreciate the question, Fred. The first thing I would say is, we have extremely manageable day supply, both on the new side and on the used side. I think what you saw in the growth of the inventory was surprising but not concerning from the standpoint that our showrooms were, you know, really, really short in inventory. I think the change that we saw loud and clear, Fred, really revolves around the expectations that were set by the manufacturers we represent throughout COVID that, you know, the demand was so high and the supply was so low, and nobody had any clarity on their supply challenges, right? We had literally thousands of units that were in our stores that we couldn't even sell because they were missing a particular part or something. Whatever was the hold-up in those supply chains that was expected to take much longer, apparently is not taking that long because most of that has been taken care of fairly dramatically. Overall, you know, we order inventory, some of it is earned on allocation, but we will manage the day supply, you know, very effectively as we move forward. The current day supply on both new and used is really more than manageable. Okay, that's fair. Just coming back to the earmarked spending targets that you guys have for the year, I think that number was $20 million for the full year 2022. Narinder, I thought it sounds like just based on the OpEx and CapEx number, that you're already at $23 million year to date. What is sort of the right number for spending in 2022 now, and then how should we sort of think about that continuing or potentially rolling off into 2023? Yeah. Thanks for the question. Let me clarify. What's flowing through the income statement, the expectation for those operating expenses is about $13 million for the full year 2022. That's you know, if I pull out my crystal ball, that's what I can see. What you see on the balance sheet is about $10.5 million year to date, so we still have a quarter to go. You can expect you know, some more additions there. We are not through with the 2023 planning cycle, so it's hard for me to give you a specific steer on what the investment will be. You know, suffice to say, you know, this isn't a you know, invest in technology and facilities and our processes and then stop. You know, we would expect that to continue. I think Marshall outlined our strategic priorities in terms of technology and facilities. Obviously, we have some more work to do on the organization side of things. I would expect, you know, some of those investments to continue. Now, as we finish the budget cycle and we take into account all of the macro environment and do our scenario planning, you know, we'll figure out, you know, where and how much capital we wanna deploy for the next year. Sitting here today, I wouldn't give you that steer. I think it's too early to say. Fred, I would also reiterate that, you know, we spend a lot of our time right now looking at day in and day out economic changes and challenges, right? We do have a detailed recession playbook, and this spend is obviously a big part of that playbook. These aren't commitments where we're out, you know, with million dollars of commitments throughout 2023. These are things that we can slow down, many of them we can put off, and that is all built into our playbook. We also do not want to, as I said earlier, have a knee-jerk reaction and overreact like everybody, including us, did at the onset of COVID, and then deal with the ramifications of being behind on our initiatives. Okay. Sorry, just to reiterate the numbers, Narinder, the $13 million in OpEx, that's your expectation for the full year, or is that a year-to-date number? Yes, that's the expectation for the full year. The $10.5 on CapEx is a year-to-date number that will probably go higher based on. That's correct. Okay. That's correct, Fred. Perfect. All right. Thank you. Thank you. Appreciate it. As a reminder, if you'd like to ask a question, please press star one on your telephone keypad. One moment, please, while we poll for questions. Our next question comes from Craig Kennison with Baird. Please proceed with your question. Hey, good morning. Thank you for taking my questions as well. First, Narinder, with respect to 2023 guidance, should we expect that to exclude the automotive business when you provide it? Yeah, that's a great question. That would be the baseline planning scenario, correct? So yes, we would exclude that in our 2023 guidance. You know, we obviously have a plan in place for the automotive business. We are proceeding with that, and we fully intend to execute that over the next 90 days or so. I would not include automotive in our 2023 guidance. Thank you. I'm curious, Marshall, on the sourcing side, if you're seeing any of these consumer trends that we've been talking about, are consumers coming in to trade and trade up, or are they coming in to trade to say, "Hey, I don't have the cash today and I need to raise some? Yeah. Not necessarily on the trade. I think there's been. I've had some questions with regards to our people trading down. That really isn't a phenomenon that I've ever really seen in my career. Are people needing to sell? Absolutely. You know, I think that our cash offer tool is becoming, you know, very, very important for our customers. We have a lot of activity, but suffice to say, we're buying things today significantly less than we were six months ago. We are managing capture rates and all those types of things due to that. They are looking to sell. We are still buying a lot, but our trades are actually up. I think the reason trades are up is because of this mix situation, that as we got more side-by-sides and those are units that have a higher likelihood of having a trade-in. Our trade percentages of our total inventory are significantly higher today than they were, say, six months ago. Is there any trend that you can interpret from that decision to sell to you? I mean, is it economic stress? Is it, you know, consumers who bought during the pandemic and decided it wasn't for them? Just curious why you might be- Yeah Seeing some of that selling activity. Well, yeah, we obviously, you know, really track the those types of motivations as we as we do our business. I would say, again, depending on the price point, would drive whether people have negative equity, whether they have large loan balances. You do see in times like this, where people are trying to get off of a payment. That doesn't mean they're leaving the space. It just means they're they need to take a breather because maybe one of them lost their job or whatever the case may be. We have seen an acceleration in that regard, which again skews to a higher dollar unit than does the $3,000 dirt bike that the guy bought and it's sitting in his garage. As they come in, sorry to press on this, are they coming in with equity in general, given the high price of or high values of this equipment, or is there any negative equity coming through the door as well? Yeah, they were coming in with equity, but prices have come down fairly dramatically, and that's purely because of the effect of new inventory now in stock. I think where we're seeing the biggest effect on cost is in that current year model and one-year-old pre-owned vehicle, and that's usually the first that gets hit. That $6,000 unit, it might be worth $5,500 today, whereas it was worth $6,000 six months ago. But those ones that we were able to retail at close to new prices because we didn't have any new, those are the ones that get impacted. As far as loan balances and negative equity, we do see, and we have always seen a significant amount of that. I would tell you that, without naming specific manufacturers, I think you can probably draw that conclusion, you know, of who has the highest priced product. Those consumers do tend to have the most negative equity. Got it. Just shifting gears, Marshall, I wonder if you would expand on the warehouse strategy seems to be gaining steam in Orlando and how that might unfold in the Pennsylvania market where you have less of a, I guess, retail presence. Yeah, it's really evolving, and we're learning obviously every day, and we're testing different concepts within these facilities. We are very encouraged by what we see. Let's take one in two different pieces. We'll talk about Pennsylvania, but let me discuss Orlando. We have a very interesting location in Orlando. It's, you know, in a very high, highly populated area. When we walked in that facility and saw hundreds and hundreds of all makes and models, the thought came to mind, "Why on earth wouldn't we open this up to consumers?" You know, yes, we're processing them to push to our stores at some point, but how many people would love to walk in and not have the typical sales process and everything else, and be able to buy at fixed prices and select from that kind of inventory? The initial reaction has been extremely positive. We are looking at that. We're looking at size of facilities. You know, there's a. I would say Orlando is probably one of the smaller, and from our initial belief, it's probably too small. Then we have a very large one underway, as you know, in Dallas, Texas. You have Pennsylvania, which is kind of in the middle. The purpose of Pennsylvania is twofold. Number one, the majority, a high percentage of all of the used vehicles that we buy come out of the Northeast. I would tell you that the quality of the vehicles that come out of the Northeast. From our data is significantly better. It's, you know, obvious. It's not sitting outside. They can only ride a portion of the year. They have lower miles and so on and so forth. The fact that we have a closer and less costly facility to where we're acquiring the vehicles, we believe is gonna make a dramatic change on our inbound freight costs, initially. Secondly, this market is, you know, has access to 90 million people, and we think on the retail side, I mean, our warehouse concept could also be very, very interesting. So that's the portion there. Then the last piece with regards to those is I think Pennsylvania is interesting because, as you said, we don't have any new vehicle franchises there. You know, how dramatic can we affect the market and grab market share in that market, focusing on pre-owned? You know, I think that we're pretty excited about that because that's 100% organic growth, and could produce, you know, millions of dollars of revenue and gross profit. Great. Hey, thank you. You bet. Thank you, Craig. Thanks for everything. We have reached the end of the question and answer session. I'd like to turn the call back over to Marshall Chesrown for closing comments. Well, I wanna thank everybody for joining us today. We've got lots to look forward to and lots of moving pieces. As a company, we're staying absolutely focused on the key priorities. We have a laundry list of opportunity. I think for Narinder and myself and the rest of our management team, it's really a job of focusing on the biggest opportunities first, and then doing them in a very disciplined, methodical way and making sure that we have an effective playbook. If in fact, we don't anticipate it, but if in fact, you know, the market gets even more crazy from an economic perspective, we're gonna be in a position to react very quickly. With all of that, we really appreciate all of your time. Everybody have a great day, and we'll talk to you in a few months. Thank you so much. This concludes today's conference. You may disconnect your lines at this time, and we thank you for your participation.
