The report showed a sequential increase in delinquency rates, in line with the historical average, he added.

The analyst estimates the portfolio-level delinquency rate rose 19 basis points (bps) month-on-month, consistent with the seasonal average, and the cumulative net loss rate increased 7 bps, much steeper than the seasonal average of 3 bps.

"Results thus far are trending in line with management commentary, in our view, which suggests that delinquencies will continue to ramp through the rest of the year, before improving again during the tax refund period, he further wrote.

Investors have been increasingly concerned about "the company’s credit exposure, and more broadly, management’s ability to sustain market leadership," Devitt stated.

KMX Price Action: CarMax shares were up 0.87% at $40.98 at the time of publication on Wednesday
