AutoZone 3rd Quarter Same Store Sales Increase 1.9%; EPS Increases to $34.12

AutoZone, Inc.
AutoZone, Inc.

MEMPHIS, Tenn., May 23, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- AutoZone, Inc. (NYSE: AZO) today reported net sales of $4.1 billion for its third quarter (12 weeks) ended May 6, 2023, an increase of 5.8% from the third quarter of fiscal 2022 (12 weeks). Domestic same store sales, or sales for stores open at least one year, increased 1.9% for the quarter.

“I would like to congratulate and thank our entire organization for delivering solid earnings in our third fiscal quarter. The hard work of our AutoZoners and their dedication to providing superior customer service, again drove our quarterly performance. While weaker than expected sales for the month of March meaningfully affected our results this quarter, we are excited about our initiatives and believe we are well positioned for future growth,” said Bill Rhodes, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer.

For the quarter, gross profit, as a percentage of sales, was 52.5%, an increase of 56 basis points versus the prior year. The increase in gross margin was impacted by a 42 basis point ($17 million) non-cash LIFO benefit, with the remaining leverage primarily from higher merchandise margins. Operating expenses, as a percentage of sales, were 31.5% versus last year at 31.6%.

Operating profit increased 9.3% to $858.5 million. Net income for the quarter increased 9.3% over the same period last year to $647.7 million, while diluted earnings per share increased 17.5% to $34.12 from $29.03 in the year-ago quarter.

Under its share repurchase program, AutoZone repurchased 356 thousand shares of its common stock for $908.2 million during the third quarter, at an average price of $2,551 per share. At the end of the third quarter, the Company had $843.6 million remaining under its current share repurchase authorization.

The Company’s inventory increased 7.4% over the same period last year, driven by inflation and its growth initiatives. Net inventory, defined as merchandise inventories less accounts payable, on a per store basis, was negative $215 thousand versus negative $216 thousand last year and negative $227 thousand last quarter.

During the quarter ended May 6, 2023, AutoZone opened 22 new stores in the U.S., six in Mexico and two in Brazil. As of May 6, 2023, the Company had 6,248 stores in the U.S., 713 in Mexico and 83 in Brazil for a total store count of 7,044.

This release includes certain financial information not derived in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). These non-GAAP measures include adjustments to reflect return on invested capital, adjusted debt and adjusted debt to EBITDAR. The Company believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP measures provides information that is useful to investors as it indicates more clearly the Company’s comparative year-to-year operating results, but this information should not be considered a substitute for any measures derived in accordance with GAAP.

The Company believes this is important information for the management of its debt levels and share repurchases. We have included a reconciliation of this additional information to the most comparable GAAP measures in the accompanying reconciliation tables.
