Zaffino commented:

“Under the leadership of new CEO Brian Krzanich, the company has started to incorporate significantly more technology. Krzanich wants to transform CDK into the “Salesforce of dealerships” by tying third-party applications into its Fortellis suite; the integration of Lyft into its platform is an example. Near term, Krzanich is hyper- focused on CDK’s lower end, Drive Flex offering to stem share loss among one- to two-site dealers. CDK maintained its revenue/EBITDA/EPS growth targets of 4%-5%/8%-12%/15%-20%, which can be achieved through a combination of auto site wins, improved retention, software penetration and international growth. Maintain Outperform.”
