DESCRIPTION:Topic:&nbsp; The U.S. Auto Industry at Structural, Strategic and Financial CrossroadsSpeaker: &nbsp;Kevin Tynan, Director of Research, The Presidio GroupPresentation:As the structural and strategic dynamics that underpinned the U.S. auto industry since the global financial crisis continue to lose earnings traction, manufacturers and franchised dealerships will be challenged to grow profitable volume.&nbsp;Manufacturers are entering a technology crisis in which electric and autonomous strategies are not expanding profitability. Franchised dealerships have the revenue and earning diversity to turn focus from new vehicle volume to their other business units.&nbsp;Speaker's bio:&nbsp;Kevin joined The Presidio Group in 2024.

As a senior analyst, the "Financial Times/StarMine" ranked him the top stock picker for the automobile parts segment in 2007.&nbsp;In 2009, Kevin became the Global Director of Automotive Research for Bloomberg Intelligence. During his tenure at Bloomberg, Kevin designed, built and maintained global automotive coverage for North America, Europe and Asia-based automakers. The unit became Bloomberg Intelligence as the coverage team expanded to put analyst teams on the ground in each region.&nbsp;Kevin is a regular presenter on automotive and financial television, radio and podcasts.
