Carvana (ISIN US1468691027) extended its partnership with Phoenix Rising FC into a tenth season on October 21, 2026, while Morgan Stanley maintained an Overweight rating and trimmed its target to USD 88.00 from USD 90.00, as reported by TheStreet on October 19, 2026. The combination leaves investors weighing Carvana's growth scale against pressure on financing-related profit.
Partnership reaches ten seasons
Carvana said the Phoenix Rising agreement enters its tenth season. The partnership keeps the online used-car retailer connected to a sports platform in its Arizona home market, adding a concrete customer and brand channel alongside vehicle sales.
What will margins show next?
The next test is the third-quarter report scheduled for October 28, 2026, after the market closes. In the second quarter of 2026, revenue reached USD 7.38 billion, up 52.40 percent from the same period a year earlier, while net income was USD 513.0 million. Operating profit was USD 680.0 million, according to the quarter's financial data. The figures show why volume growth is central, but they also raise the importance of gross profit per vehicle and financing economics.
Three milestones carry figures
On June 24, 2026, Carvana reported first-quarter revenue of USD 6.43 billion and net income of USD 405.0 million. On July 29, 2026, its second-quarter report showed revenue of USD 7.38 billion and net income of USD 513.0 million. On October 21, 2026, the company extended the Phoenix Rising partnership into its tenth season.
Next reporting date
Carvana's next scheduled event is the third-quarter 2026 financial results conference call on October 28, 2026, at 5:30 p.m. ET, according to the company's investor-relations page.
Stock price stays the market anchor
