(the “Company” or “O’Reilly”) (Nasdaq: ORLY), a leading retailer in the automotive aftermarket industry, today announced record revenue for its second quarter ended June 30, 2024.
2nd Quarter Financial Results
Brad Beckham, O’Reilly’s CEO, commented, “I would like to thank all of Team O’Reilly for their tremendous hard work and unwavering commitment to providing excellent customer service and taking care of our customers every day. Our comparable store sales results were below our expectations for the second quarter, as the soft demand environment we experienced at the beginning of the quarter persisted through May. Sales trends improved in June, in line with our expectations, aided by strong performance in summer weather-related categories in many of our markets. Against this challenging backdrop, our Team generated a second quarter comparable store sales increase of 2.3%, on top of a 9.0% increase last year, driven by solid, mid-single digit growth in our professional business. Our Team of Professional Parts People continues to be relentlessly focused on delivering unsurpassed levels of service to our customers, while also prudently managing expenses.”
Sales for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024, increased $203 million, or 5%, to $4.27 billion from $4.07 billion for the same period one year ago. Gross profit for the second quarter increased 4% to $2.17 billion (or 50.7% of sales) from $2.09 billion (or 51.3% of sales) for the same period one year ago. Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) for the second quarter increased 6% to $1.30 billion (or 30.5% of sales) from $1.23 billion (or 30.3% of sales) for the same period one year ago. Operating income for the second quarter increased 1% to $863 million (or 20.2% of sales) from $854 million (or 21.0% of sales) for the same period one year ago.
Net income for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024, decreased $5 million, or 1%, to $623 million (or 14.6% of sales) from $627 million (or 15.4% of sales) for the same period one year ago. Diluted earnings per common share for the second quarter increased 3% to $10.55 on 59 million shares versus $10.22 on 61 million shares for the same period one year ago.
Year-to-Date Financial Results
Mr. Beckham concluded, “Based on our results so far this year, we are updating our full-year comparable store sales guidance from a range of 3.0% to 5.0% to a range of 2.0% to 4.0%. Despite the challenges we have seen in the demand environment in the first half of 2024, we believe our industry’s long-term drivers for demand remain strong. More importantly, we remain confident in our Team’s ability to grow market share by continuously providing exceptional service, supported by best-in-class inventory availability. We continue to be pleased with our new store performance and our Team’s ability to further grow share with expansion in both new and existing markets. During the first half of 2024, we opened 64 new stores in the U.S. and Mexico, and we continue to expect to hit our target of 190 to 200 net, new store openings this year.”

Updated Full-Year 2024 Guidance
The table below outlines the Company’s updated guidance for selected full-year 2024 financial data:
For the Year Ending December 31, 2024 Net, new store openings 190 to 200 Comparable store sales 2.0% to 4.0% Total revenue $16.6 billion to $16.9 billion Gross profit as a percentage of sales 51.0% to 51.5% Operating income as a percentage of sales 19.6% to 20.1% Effective income tax rate 22.4% Diluted earnings per share (1) $40.75 to $41.25 Net cash provided by operating activities $2.7 billion to $3.1 billion Capital expenditures $900 million to $1.0 billion Free cash flow (2) $1.8 billion to $2.1 billion As previously announced, the Company completed the acquisition of Groupe Del Vasto in Canada (“Vast Auto”) in January of 2024, and the results of Vast Auto’s operations have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements since the acquisition date. The above updated consolidated guidance for selected full-year 2024 financial data includes expected impacts from Vast Auto’s operations, including an updated estimate of 30 basis points of dilution to gross profit as a percentage of sales but an unchanged estimate of 15 basis points of dilution to operating income as a percentage of sales for the full-year 2024.
(1) Weighted-average shares outstanding, assuming dilution, used in the denominator of this calculation, includes share repurchases made by the Company through the date of this release.
(2) Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure. The table below reconciles Free cash flow guidance to Net cash provided by operating activities guidance, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure:
For the Year Ending (in millions) December 31, 2024 Net cash provided by operating activities $ 2,715 to $ 3,125 Less: Capital expenditures 900 to 1,000 Excess tax benefit from share-based compensation payments 15 to 25 Free cash flow $ 1,800 to $ 2,100 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 debt to 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 adjusted debt to 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 has included a reconciliation of this additional information to the most comparable GAAP measure in the table above and the selected financial information below.

Our comparable store sales increase was comprised of solid growth in both professional and DIY, which grew mid-single digit and low-single digit, respectively, in the quarter. Our team’s continued strong execution drove an 11% increase in diluted earnings per share, and is a clear demonstration of Team O’Reilly’s commitment to our culture values of hard work and excellent customer service. I would like to thank each of our over 90,000 Team Members for their ongoing dedication to O’Reilly’s success.”

We remain excited about the future opportunities we have before us in the Canadian market and throughout North America and look forward to growing our market share in new and existing markets as the industry leader in excellent customer service.”
1st Quarter Comparable Store Sales Results
Comparable store sales are calculated based on the change in sales for U.S. stores open at least one year and exclude sales of specialty machinery, sales to independent parts stores, and sales to Team Members, as well as sales from Leap Day in the three months ended March 31, 2024. Online sales for ship-to-home orders and pick-up-in-store orders for U.S. stores open at least one year are included in the comparable store sales calculation. Comparable store sales increased 3.4% for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024, on top of 10.8% for the same period one year ago.
Share Repurchase Program
During the first quarter ended March 31, 2024, the Company repurchased 0.3 million shares of its common stock, at an average price per share of $1,029.24, for a total investment of $270 million. Excise tax on shares repurchased, assessed at one percent of the fair market value of shares repurchased, was $2.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024. Subsequent to the end of the first quarter and through the date of this release, the Company repurchased an additional 0.1 million shares of its common stock, at an average price per share of $1,102.00, for a total investment of $79 million. The Company has repurchased a total of 94.4 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 $249.17, for a total aggregate investment of $23.53 billion.

Updated Full-Year 2024 Guidance
The table below outlines the Company’s updated guidance for selected full-year 2024 financial data:
For the Year Ending December 31, 2024 Net, new store openings 190 to 200 Comparable store sales 3.0% to 5.0% Total revenue $16.8 billion to $17.1 billion Gross profit as a percentage of sales 51.0% to 51.5% Operating income as a percentage of sales 19.7% to 20.2% Effective income tax rate 22.4% Diluted earnings per share (1) $41.35 to $41.85 Net cash provided by operating activities $2.7 billion to $3.1 billion Capital expenditures $900 million to $1.0 billion Free cash flow (2) $1.8 billion to $2.1 billion
(1) Weighted-average shares outstanding, assuming dilution, used in the denominator of this calculation, includes share repurchases made by the Company through the date of this release. (2) Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure. The table below reconciles Free cash flow guidance to Net cash provided by operating activities guidance, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure:
For the Year Ending (in millions) December 31, 2024 Net cash provided by operating activities $ 2,715 to $ 3,125 Less: Capital expenditures 900 to 1,000 Excess tax benefit from share-based compensation payments 15 to 25 Free cash flow $ 1,800 to $ 2,100 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 debt to 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 adjusted debt to 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 has included a reconciliation of this additional information to the most comparable GAAP measure in the table above and the selected financial information below.
