Carvana (CVNA) shares surged nearly 18% on Thursday, hitting an all-time high, after several Wall Street analysts raised their price target on the online used-car retailer, with Citi noting that it was well-positioned to hit its target of selling three million retail units annually within 10 years.

The company reported second-quarter GAAP earnings per share of $1.28 on revenue that soared 42% to a quarterly record of $4.84 billion. Analysts surveyed by Visible Alpha had expected $0.97 and $4.58 billion, respectively.

Growth rates often normalise as companies mature, reflecting the challenges of sustaining outsized gains at scale, but Tempe-headquartered Carvana (NYSE: CVNA) continues to defy that historical wisdom.
