Motorpoint’s issued an encouraging FY26 trading update which points to a strong operational recovery, with both volumes and profitability materially ahead of the prior year. Retail volumes reached a record c.65,000 units, up 8%, significantly outperforming the broader UK used car market, which grew at a much slower pace. This suggests continued market share gains, supported by the group’s omnichannel model and increasingly data-driven execution. But the most notable feature flagged up was the sharp improvement in profitability. Profit before tax is expected to increase 83% to c.£7.5m, while EBITDA rises 13% to c.£27.0m. This reflects a combination of higher volumes and improved unit economics, particularly through record “metal margin” performance. Management highlights the growing role of data and AI in pricing, sourcing and demand generation, with approximately 900 incremental vehicle sales attributed to AI-driven re-engagement tools. This indicates early evidence of technology enhancing both conversion and margin. Supply conditions also appear to have normalised, which is supportive. Improved access to vehicles, including greater use of direct sourcing via the “Sell Your Car” channel and bulk purchasing opportunities....
