CAF provides financing to qualified retail customers purchasing vehicles from CarMax. CAF provides us the opportunity to capture additional profits, cash flows and sales while managing our reliance on third-party finance sources. Management regularly analyzes CAF’s operating results by assessing profitability, the performance of its auto loans, including trends in credit losses and delinquencies, and CAF direct expenses. The CODM reviews CAF income to assess CAF’s performance and make operating decisions, including resource allocations.

We typically use securitizations or other funding arrangements to fund loans originated by CAF. Certain pools of loans may be sold in such a way that CAF relinquishes all, or nearly all, of its continuing financial interests in the loans. We classify these loans as held for sale when we have both the intent and ability to sell the loans in an off-balance sheet transaction. As of August 31, 2026, the carrying value of auto loans held for sale was $106.5 million and no valuation allowance was recorded. Once sold, CAF, as servicer, continues to be responsible for managing collections and performing other servicing activities for the sold auto loans and earns servicing income as compensation for these activities. During the second quarter, we executed a non-prime securitization transaction that resulted in the sale of approximately $596 million of auto loans, inclusive of accrued interest, in exchange for consideration in the form of cash and beneficial interests. We recognized a gain on sale of $16.6 million from the transaction, net of transaction expenses.

CAF income primarily reflects the interest and fee income generated by auto loans held for investment and auto loans held for sale less the interest expense associated with the debt issued to fund these loans, a provision for estimated loan losses on auto loans held for investment, direct CAF expenses and income related to the sale of auto loans. CAF income does not include any allocation of indirect costs. Although CAF benefits from certain indirect overhead expenditures, we have not allocated indirect costs to CAF to avoid making subjective allocation decisions. Examples of indirect costs not allocated to CAF include retail store expenses and corporate expenses. In addition, except for auto loans held for investment, which are disclosed in Note 4, and auto loans held for sale, CAF assets are not separately reported nor do we allocate assets to CAF because such allocation would not be useful to management in making operating decisions.
