3rd 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 4.6% for the third quarter ended September  30, 2013, versus 1.3% for the same period one year ago.  Comparable store sales increased 3.9% for the first nine months of 2013, versus 3.7% 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.

(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 adjusted net income for the last 12 months, 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 adjusted net income for the last 12 months, adjusted for the item discussed in footnote (5), divided by average total assets.  Average total assets are calculated as the average of 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.
