Filed August 7, 2009For Securities:ORLY

Summary

O'Reilly Automotive, Inc. (ORLY) reported solid financial results for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2009, demonstrating strong sales growth primarily driven by the acquisition of CSK Auto Corporation. Despite an increase in expenses and interest costs associated with the acquisition and integration, the company managed to improve its gross profit margin due to favorable product mix, lower acquisition costs, and distribution efficiencies. The company's balance sheet shows growth in assets and liabilities, reflecting the significant impact of the CSK acquisition. While operational cash flow saw a decrease, this was largely due to increased inventory investment, and overall liquidity appears managed through its credit facility. Key areas for investor focus include the continued successful integration of CSK, the management of increased debt levels, and the company's ability to sustain comparable store sales growth amidst a challenging economic environment. The company also highlighted initiatives to manage product quality differentiation and its strategy to expand store footprint. Legal matters related to the CSK acquisition are being actively managed, with significant reserves in place, and management believes these will not materially impact the company's financial position.
