Summary
This amended 10-K filing for AutoZone, Inc. for the fiscal year ended August 29, 1998, primarily serves to attach previously filed excerpts from its Annual Report to Stockholders as an exhibit. The core financial and operational information remains consistent with the original report. Investors should note the filing date of March 3, 2002, which is significantly after the period end, indicating this is an amendment for administrative purposes rather than a fresh disclosure of recent performance. The filing references incorporated information from the 1998 Annual Report, including market price data, selected financial data, management's discussion and analysis, and financial statements. Key events mentioned within the reporting period include the acquisition of TruckPro Limited Partnership's assets and the execution and closing of the acquisition of Chief Auto Parts Inc. These strategic moves suggest a focus on growth and market expansion during that fiscal year.
