Brian Kraft's questions to SIRIUS XM HOLDINGS (SIRI) leadership

Question · Q4 2025

Brian Kraft from Deutsche Bank asked about the current conversion rates for both new and used vehicles, and how these rates compare between 360L and non-360L enabled vehicles, specifically if 360L is improving conversion. He also inquired about trends in used car trials, whether they are still growing, and if macro pressures are impacting their growth.

Answer

CEO Jennifer Witz acknowledged a healthy trial funnel but noted potential headwinds in 2026 due to estimated reductions in new vehicle purchases. She stated that used car penetration rates continue to grow (around 60%), with strong dealer relationships ensuring a good customer experience. She confirmed that 360L conversion rates are better than non-360L, and even better for 360L on AAOS, attributing this to the data insights gained from 360L that enable personalized marketing and product recommendations, which are expected to drive meaningful lift in conversion as capabilities are fully implemented this year.
