Online Market is Vibrant and Growing
Aftermarket e-Commerce Overview
Source: Google
5
Source: eBay filings, press releases


Online penetration for auto parts has trailed penetration rates of other consumer product categories for two
reasons: 
1)
Auto parts are traditionally bought by demographics that have lower internet penetration at home and less of a
propensity to purchase products online
Internet penetration will grow at home but, more importantly, mobile devices will drive online buying going forward
2)
Shopping for auto parts online can be difficult for consumers
The complexity required to buy an auto part (applications and attributes) has limited consumption online because
consumers
need
to
feel
comfortable
that
they
have
found
the
“right”
part
Online retailers have made vast improvements to the online shopping experience
The continued growth of website conversion rates over the last five years demonstrates the progress that online retailers
have made to make consumers feel comfortable

USAP’s Current Operating Environment
10
After eight consecutive quarters of 20% revenue and EBITDA growth, USAP’s financial
performance has been impacted by decreased visitors driven by two main factors:
1.
Reduced SEO Traffic:
Changes made by search engines have impacted traffic
Addressing the loss in traffic by consolidating websites
2.
Margin Compression: Increased competition has hurt pricing, impacting marketing spend
Marketing spend is based on variable contribution from each SKU.
As overall margin has compressed,
marketing spend on a year-over-year (“YoY”) basis has lead to lower traffic
Addressing margin compression by increasing private label mix
* YoY web orders for top USAP sites that comprise 82% of total sales
