AI Analysis

AI-generated, general educational analysis — not personal investment advice.

I approach O'Reilly as a Graham-style owner: what is the business worth, and what am I paying? The filed record shows a steady auto-parts retailer. In fiscal Q2 2026, the quarter ended 2026-06-30, revenue was $4.9B, net income $715.1M, and diluted EPS $0.86, above fiscal Q2 2025, the quarter ended 2025-06-30, when revenue was $4.5B, net income $668.6M, and diluted EPS $0.78. For FY2025, the year ended 2025-12-31, revenue was $17.8B versus $16.7B in FY2024, the year ended 2024-12-31, net income was $2.5B versus $2.4B, and diluted EPS was $2.97 versus $2.71. That is consistent growth, and trailing free cash flow of $2.2B supports the quality case. The steady record hints at a modest moat, but the data given do not let me quantify store-level economics or competitive advantage. FairStock calculates ROCE of 13.67%, a Piotroski F-Score of 6/9, an Altman Z-Score of 2.30, and a FairStock Score of 62/100; P/B, ROE, and D/E are not available here, so I cannot complete a full Graham balance-sheet check. The price is the issue. At the 2026-10-26 close of $91.05, FairStock puts the P/E at 28.90, PEG at 2.90, EV/EBITDA at 19.59, and FCF yield at only 2.9%. Those are not deep-value numbers. FairStock classifies O'Reilly as Cyclical — Auto Parts because earnings follow the economic cycle, which argues for a margin of safety. The 52-week range is $82.59–$102.46 and there is no dividend. I see a good business, but at this price the evidence does not offer a clear Graham-style bargain.

In plain English: O'Reilly Automotive sells parts, tools, and supplies for cars and trucks. The business looks strong, with rising sales and profits and solid cash generation. At $91.05 on 2026-10-26, the shares look expensive compared with the company's earnings and cash flow.
