Management Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
The management of Penske Automotive Group, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Company's internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Company's management and board of directors that the Company's internal control over financial reporting provides reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation and presentation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.
Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024. In making this assessment, it used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013). Based on our assessment, we believe that as of December 31, 2024, the Company's internal control over financial reporting is effective based on those criteria.
Management excluded from its assessment the internal control over financial reporting at Rybrook Group Limited in the U.K., which was acquired in January 2024; Jaguar/Land Rover in Italy, which was acquired in March 2024; Porsche Centre Brighton, Porsche Centre Doncaster, and Essendon Used Vehicle Dealership in Australia, which were acquired in June 2024; River States Truck and Trailer in Wisconsin and Minnesota, which was acquired in June 2024; Bill Brown Ford in Michigan, which was acquired in July 2024; and Porsche Centre Melbourne in Australia, which was acquired in December 2024. These acquisitions constitute less than 3%of total assets and less than 4% of total revenues of the Company’s consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024. Accordingly, the internal control over financial reporting at the retail automotive and retail commercial truck acquisitions made during the year ended December 31, 2024 were unaudited.
The Company's independent registered public accounting firm that audited the consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K has issued an audit report on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. This report appears on page F-3.
