Springfield, MO, July 24, 2013O’Reilly Automotive, Inc. (the “Company” or “O’Reilly”) (Nasdaq: ORLY), a leading retailer in the automotive aftermarket industry, today announced  record revenues and earnings for its second quarter ended June  30, 2013. 

 

2nd Quarter Financial Results

Sales for the second quarter ended June  30, 2013, increased $152 million, or 10%, to $1.71 billion from $1.56 billion for the same period one year ago.  Gross profit for the second quarter increased to $872 million (or 50.8% of sales) from $780 million (or 49.9% of sales) for the same period one year ago, representing an increase of 12%.  Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) for the second quarter increased to $576 million (or 33.6% of sales) from $536 million (or 34.3% of sales) for the same period one year ago, representing an increase of 7%. Operating income for the second quarter increased to $296 million (or 17.3% of sales) from $244 million (or 15.6% of sales) for the same period one year ago, representing an increase of 22%.

 

Net income for the second quarter ended June  30, 2013, increased $31 million, or 21%, to $177 million (or 10.3% of sales) from $146 million (or 9.3% of sales) for the same period one year ago.  Diluted earnings per common share for the second quarter increased 37% to $1.58 on 112 million shares versus $1.15 for the same period one year ago on 127 million shares.

 

“We are very pleased to again report another record breaking quarter highlighted by a 37% increase in diluted earnings per share to $1.58, representing our 18th consecutive quarter of 15% or greater adjusted diluted earnings per share growth,” commented Greg Henslee, President and CEO.  “We generated an impressive 6.5% increase in comparable store sales, which exceeded the top end of our quarterly guidance range of 4% to 6%.  Our unwavering commitment to providing consistent, excellent customer service drove outstanding sales results across all of our markets.  We achieved a record quarterly gross margin of 50.8%, primarily driven by improvements in acquisition costs, product mix and pricing management.  Our relentless focus on expense control, along with our strong gross margin results, generated a record quarterly operating margin of 17.3%, which was a 170 basis point improvement over the prior year.  We continue to believe in the strength of the long-term demand drivers in our industry, and we are establishing our third quarter comparable store sales guidance at 4% to 6% and reiterating our full-year comparable store sales guidance of 3% to 5%.  I would like to take this opportunity to thank each of our 60,000 Team Members for their hard work and commitment to O’Reilly’s continued success.”

 

Year-to-Date Financial Results

Sales for the first six months of 2013 increased $208 million, or 7%, to $3.30 billion from $3.09 billion for the same period one year ago.  Gross profit for the first six months of 2013 increased to $1.67 billion (or 50.6% of sales) from $1.54 billion (or 49.9% of sales) for the same period one year ago, representing an increase of 8%.  SG&A for the first six months of 2013 increased to $1.12 billion (or 34.0% of sales) from $1.05 billion (or 34.0% of sales) for the same period one year ago, representing an increase of 7%.  Operating income for the first six months of 2013 increased to $547 million

Net income for the first six months of 2013 increased $38 million, or 13%, to $331 million (or 10.0% of sales) from $294 million (or 9.5% of sales) for the same period one year ago.  Diluted earnings per common share for the first six months of 2013 increased 28% to $2.94 on 113 million shares versus $2.29 for the same period one year ago on 128 million shares.

 

Mr. Henslee continued, “We are on track to meet our goal of 190 net, new stores in 2013 with the opening of 111 net, new stores across 30 states in the first half of the year.  In June, we issued $300 million of ten-year senior notes, representing another measured step to reaching our targeted leverage range of 2.00 to 2.25 times adjusted debt to adjusted EBITDAR, and we remain very focused on maintaining or improving our investment grade credit ratings.”

As previously announced, on May 29, 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a resolution to increase the authorization under the Company’s share repurchase program by an additional $500 million, raising the cumulative authorization under the share repurchase program to $3.5 billion.  During the second quarter ended June  30, 2013,  the Company repurchased 2.5 million shares of its common stock at an average price per share of $107.61 for a total investment of $274 million.  During the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company repurchased 5.0 million shares of its common stock at an average price per share of $100.10 for a total investment of $502 million.  Subsequent to the end of the second quarter and through the date of this release, the Company repurchased an additional 0.5 million shares of its common stock at an average price per share of $113.66 for a total investment of $56 million.  The Company has repurchased a total of 37.6 million shares of its common stock under its share repurchase program since the inception of the program in January of 2011 and through the date of this release, at an average price of $79.27, for a total aggregate investment of $2.98 billion.  As of the date of this release, the Company had approximately $521 million remaining under its current share repurchase authorizations.

 

 

2nd Quarter and Year-to-Date Comparable Store Sales Results

Comparable store sales are calculated based on the change in sales for stores open at least one year and exclude sales of specialty machinery, sales to independent parts stores, sales to Team Members and sales from the acquired VIP stores, due to the significant change in the business model and lack of historical data.  Comparable store sales increased 6.5% for the second quarter ended June  30, 2013, versus 2.5% for the same period one year ago.  Comparable store sales increased 3.6% for the first six months of 2013, versus 4.9% for the same period one year ago.

Non-GAAP Information

This release contains certain financial information not derived in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).  These items include adjusted net income, rent-adjusted debt to adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, share-based compensation and rent (“EBITDAR”) and free cash flow.  The Company does not, nor does it suggest investors should, consider such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, GAAP financial information.  The Company believes that the presentation of financial results and estimates excluding the impact of the former CSK Auto Corporation (“CSK”) officer clawback, as well as the


 

presentation of adjusted debt to adjusted EBITDAR and free cash flow provide meaningful supplemental information to both management and investors that is indicative of the Company’s core operations.  The Company excludes this item in judging its performance and believes this non-GAAP information is useful to investors as well.  The Company has included a reconciliation of this additional information to the most comparable GAAP measure in the selected financial information below.

 

Earnings Conference Call Information

The Company will host a conference call on Thursday, July 25, 2013, at 10:00 a.m. central time to discuss its results as well as future expectations.  Investors may listen to the conference call live on the Company’s website at www.oreillyauto.com by clicking on “Investor Relations” and then “News Room”.  Interested analysts are invited to join the call.  The dial-in number for the call is  (847)  585-4405; the conference call identification number is 35211264.  A replay of the call will be available on the Company’s website following the conference call.

(1)

Calculated as cost of goods sold for the last 12 months divided by average inventory.  Average inventory is calculated as the average of inventory for the trailing four quarters used in determining the denominator.

(2)

Calculated as cost of goods sold for the last 12 months divided by average net inventory.  Average net inventory is calculated as the average of inventory less accounts payable for the trailing four quarters used in determining the denominator.

(3)

Calculated as inventory divided by store count at the end of the reported period.

(4)

Calculated as accounts payable divided by inventory.

(5)

Calculated as the last 12 months adjusted net income, adjusted to exclude the benefit related to the former CSK officer clawback in the amount of $3 million ($2 million, net of tax), divided by average total shareholders' equity.  Average total shareholders' equity is calculated as the average of total shareholders' equity for the trailing four quarters used in determining the denominator.

(6)

Calculated as the last 12 months adjusted net income, adjusted for the item discussed in footnote (5), divided by average total assets.  Average total assets are calculated as the average total assets for the trailing four quarters used in determining the denominator.

(7)

Calculated as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures for the period.

(8)

Calculated as sales less jobber sales, divided by weighted-average square foot.  Weighted-average sales per square foot are weighted to consider the approximate dates of store openings or expansions.

(9)

Calculated as sales less jobber sales, divided by weighted-average stores.  Weighted-average sales per store are weighted to consider the approximate dates of store openings or expansions.
