The first quarter 2019 results included non-cash impairment charges (net of tax) of $40 million related to the Company’s equity investment in Mekonomen AB and $12 million for net assets held for sale.

Dominick Zarcone, President and Chief Executive Officer of LKQ Corporation, stated, “The business performed in-line with our expectations and we continue to make progress with our key productivity initiatives, despite tough revenue growth comparisons in North America, a challenging macro-economic environment in Europe, and the negative year-over-year impact of scrap and exchange rates. I am particularly pleased with the 90 basis points year-over-year improvement in our North America gross margins, a direct result of our ongoing margin enhancement and pricing initiatives to offset inflationary pressures. Additionally, during the quarter, Euro Car Parts continued to make progress towards optimizing the T2 distribution center, which had a positive impact on year-over-year European organic revenue growth and margins.”
