Company Guidance
During the Advance Auto Parts Third Quarter 2025 Earnings Conference Call, guidance was provided for the remainder of the fiscal year, reaffirming the midpoint of their prior comparable sales growth and adjusted operating margin guidance, which implies approximately 200 basis points of margin expansion for the year. The company reported a 3% growth in comparable sales for the third quarter, driven by both Pro and DIY channels. Adjusted operating margin expanded by 370 basis points year-over-year to 4.4%. Despite a 5% decline in net sales to $2 billion due to store optimization activities, the company raised nearly $2 billion in cash, enhancing liquidity and setting a path to return to an investment-grade credit rating. Inflation in the auto aftermarket was cited as a factor influencing sales trends, with same SKU inflation expected to be about 4% in Q4. The company is projecting full-year net sales of $8.55 billion to $8.6 billion, with comparable sales growth between 0.7% to 1.3%. Adjusted operating income margin is expected to be between 2.4% and 2.6%, and adjusted EPS is projected to be between $1.75 and $1.85. Capital expenditures have been revised to approximately $250 million for the year, reflecting a shift in timing of projected spend into next year. Free cash flow guidance was adjusted to a range of negative $90 million to $80 million, with a strategic decision to carry higher inventory levels to improve depth and breadth of assortment.
