“I think that NAPA guys were saying maybe 2.5 million, is that because they're sourcing out of different regions and markets and have less tariff exposure?”
An analyst contrasts O'Reilly's ~4% same-SKU inflation with NAPA's (Genuine Parts) lower figure, implying differing tariff/sourcing exposure across auto-parts peers.
“In terms of First Brands specifically, they're a little bit more than 3% of our COGS.”
O'Reilly quantifies exposure to distressed supplier First Brands at just over 3% of COGS and stresses multi-sourcing, signaling limited disruption risk from First Brands' troubles.
O'Reilly capped FY25 with a strong Q4 comp of 5.6%, bringing the full-year comp to 4.7%. EPS of $0.71 represented a 13% increase year-over-year. Gross margin expanded 49 basis points to 51.8%. Same-SKU inflation reached 6% in Q4 from tariff pass-through. Self-insurance and healthcare cost headwinds persisted. FY2026 guidance was introduced with comps of 3-5% and EPS of $3.10-$3.20 (split-adjusted). The DIY consumer stabilized but remained cautious.
