1.    Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation

Description of Business

Advance Auto Parts, Inc. and subsidiaries is a leading automotive aftermarket parts provider in North America, serving both professional installers (“professional”) and “do-it-yourself” (“DIY”) customers. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Advance Auto Parts, Inc., its wholly owned subsidiaries, Advance Stores Company, Incorporated (“Advance Stores”) and Neuse River Insurance Company, Inc., and their subsidiaries (collectively referred to as “the Company”).

As of July 13, 2024, the Company operated a total of 4,776 stores and 321 branches primarily within the United States, with additional locations in Canada, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. In addition, as of July 13, 2024, the Company served 1,138 independently owned Carquest branded stores across the same geographic locations served by the Company’s stores and branches in addition to Mexico and various Caribbean islands. The Company’s stores operate primarily under the trade names “Advance Auto Parts” and “Carquest” and the Company’s branches operate under the “Worldpac” and “Autopart International” trade names.

Basis of Presentation

The accounting policies followed in the presentation of interim financial results are consistent with those followed on an annual basis. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), have been condensed or omitted based upon the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) interim reporting principles. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2023 as filed with the SEC on March 12, 2024, and the amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC on May 30, 2024 (collectively the “2023 Form 10-K”).

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments that are necessary to present fairly the results for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full year. The Company’s first quarter of the year contains sixteen weeks. The Company’s remaining three quarters each consist of twelve weeks.

Revision of Previously Issued Financial Statements for Correction of Immaterial Errors

During the year ended December 30, 2023, the Company identified errors impacting cost of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) and other income (expense), net, of $62.9 million, $36.6 million and $1.7 million incurred in prior years but not previously recognized. These charges primarily related to product costs and vendor credits. Management assessed the materiality of the errors, including the presentation on prior period consolidated financial statements, on a qualitative and quantitative basis in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 99, Materiality, codified in Accounting Standards Codification Topic 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections. The Company concluded that these errors and the related impacts did not result in a material misstatement of its previously issued consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022 and its previously issued unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements as of and for the sixteen weeks ended April 22, 2023; the twelve and twenty-eight weeks ended July 15, 2023; and the twelve and forty weeks ended October 7, 2023. Correcting the cumulative effect of these errors in the fifty-two weeks ended December 30, 2023 would have had a significant effect on the results of operations for such period.



7

The Company has corrected the relevant prior periods of its consolidated financial statements and related footnotes for these and other immaterial corrections for comparative purposes, as previously disclosed in Note 18. Immaterial Restatement of Prior Period Financial Statements of the Company’s 2023 Form 10-K. The Company will also adjust previously reported financial information for such immaterial errors in future filings, as applicable. A summary of the corrections to the impacted financial statement line items from our previously issued financial statements are presented in Note 12. Immaterial Misstatement of Prior Period Financial Statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements - Not Yet Adopted

Disclosure Improvements

In October 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements (“ASU 2023-06”), which defines when companies will be required to improve and clarify disclosure and presentation requirements. This ASU should be applied prospectively, and the effective date will be determined for each individual disclosure based on the effective date of the SEC’s removal of the related disclosure. If the applicable requirements have not been removed by the SEC by June 30, 2027, this ASU will not become effective. Early adoption is prohibited. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2023-06 on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures, and does not believe it will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”), which requires a company to disclose additional, more detailed information about a reportable segment’s significant expenses, even if there is one reportable segment, and is intended to improve the disclosures about a public entity’s reportable segments. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2023-07 and believes that the adoption will result in additional disclosures, but will not have any other impact on its consolidated financial statements and segment reporting.

Income Tax Disclosure Improvements

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (“ASU 2023-09”), which requires a company to enhance its income tax disclosures. In each annual reporting period, the company should disclose the specific categories used in the rate reconciliation and additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold, including disaggregation of taxes paid by jurisdiction. The related disclosures are effective for the fiscal
8

year beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2023-09 on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures and believes that the adoption will result in additional disclosures, but will not have any other impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Climate Disclosure Requirements

In March 2024, the SEC issued its final climate disclosure rules, which require the disclosure of climate-related information in annual reports and registration statements. The rules require disclosure in the audited financial statements of certain effects of severe weather events and other natural conditions and greenhouse gas emissions above certain financial thresholds, as well as amounts related to carbon offsets and renewable energy credits or certificates, if material. Additionally, the rule established disclosure requirements regarding material climate-related risks, descriptions of board oversight and risk management activities, the material impacts of these risks on a registrants' strategy, business model and outlook and any material climate-related targets or goals. On April 4, 2024, the SEC determined to voluntarily stay the final rules pending certain legal challenges. Prior to the stay in the new rules, disclosures would have been effective for annual periods beginning January 1, 2025, except for the greenhouse gas emissions disclosure which would have been effective for annual periods beginning January 1, 2026. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new rules on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

3.    Inventories, net

The Company used the last in, first out (“LIFO”) method of accounting for approximately 91.3% of inventories as of July 13, 2024 and 91.4% as of December 30, 2023. As a result, the Company recorded a reduction to cost of sales of $37.4 million and $26.8 million for the twelve weeks ended July 13, 2024 and July 15, 2023 to state inventories at LIFO. For the twenty-eight weeks ended July 13, 2024 and July 15, 2023, the Company recorded a reduction to cost of sales of $42.4 million and $33.5 million to state inventories at LIFO.

Purchasing and warehousing costs included in inventories as of July 13, 2024 and December 30, 2023 were $559.7 million and $576.9 million.

An actual valuation of inventory under the LIFO method is performed at the end of each fiscal year based on inventory levels and carrying costs at that time. Accordingly, interim LIFO calculations are based on the Company’s estimates of expected inventory levels and costs at the end of the year.

Inventory balances were as follows:
July 13, 2024December 30, 2023
Inventories at first in, first out (“FIFO”)$5,045,131 $5,041,752 
Adjustments to state inventories at LIFO(141,641)(184,050)
Inventories at LIFO$4,903,490 $4,857,702 

4.    Intangible Assets

The Company’s definite-lived intangible assets include customer relationships and non-compete agreements. Amortization expense was $6.1 million and $6.8 million for the twelve weeks ended July 13, 2024 and July 15, 2023, and $14.4 million and $16.0 million for the twenty-eight weeks ended July 13, 2024 and July 15, 2023.

Fair value of long-term debt$1,668,101 $1,641,409 

Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities

The fair value of the Company’s senior unsecured notes was determined using Level 2 inputs based on quoted market prices. The carrying amounts of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, receivables, net, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values due to the relatively short-term nature of these instruments.

Bank Debt

On February 26, 2024, the Company entered into Amendment No. 4 (“Amendment No. 4”) to the Company’s unsecured revolving credit facility (“2021 Credit Agreement”) to enable certain addbacks to the definition of Consolidated Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”) contained therein for specific write-downs of inventory and vendor receivables. Amendment No. 4 also updated certain limitations on future incurrences of other indebtedness and liens, replacing the cap thereon of 10% of consolidated net tangible assets with $400 million, and eliminated the $250 million basket for accounts receivable securitization transactions. Amendment No. 4 made no other material changes to the terms of the 2021 Credit Agreement.

The 2021 Credit Agreement contains customary covenants restricting the ability of: (a) Advance Auto Parts, Inc. and its subsidiaries to, among other things, (i) create, incur or assume additional debt (only with respect to subsidiaries of Advance Auto Parts, Inc.), (ii) incur liens, (iii) guarantee obligations, and (iv) change the nature of
10

their business; (b) Advance Auto Parts, Inc., Advance Stores and their subsidiaries to, among other things (i) enter into certain hedging arrangements, (ii) enter into restrictive agreements limiting their ability to incur liens on any of their property or assets, pay distributions, repay loans, or guarantee indebtedness of their subsidiaries; and (c) Advance Auto Parts, Inc., among other things, to change its holding company status. The Company is also required to comply with financial covenants with respect to a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum coverage ratio. The 2021 Credit Agreement also provides for customary events of default, including non-payment defaults, covenant defaults and cross-defaults of Advance’s other material indebtedness. The Company was in compliance with the financial covenants with respect to the 2021 Credit Agreement as of July 13, 2024.

As of July 13, 2024 and December 30, 2023, the Company had no outstanding borrowings, $1.2 billion of borrowing availability and no letters of credit outstanding under the 2021 Credit Agreement.

As of July 13, 2024 and December 30, 2023, the Company had $90.8 million and $91.2 million of bilateral letters of credit issued separately from the 2021 Credit Agreement, none of which were drawn upon. These bilateral letters of credit generally have a term of one year or less and primarily serve as collateral for the Company’s self-insurance policies.

Senior Unsecured Notes

The Company’s 3.90% senior unsecured notes due April 15, 2030 (the “Original Notes”) were issued April 16, 2020, at 99.65% of the principal amount of $500.0 million, and were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Original Notes bear interest, payable semi-annually in arrears on April 15 and October 15, at a rate of 3.90% per year. On July 28, 2020, the Company completed an exchange offer whereby the Original Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $500.0 million were exchanged for a like principal amount (the “Exchange Notes” or “2030 Notes”), and which have been registered under the Securities Act. The Original Notes were substantially identical to the Exchange Notes, except the Exchange Notes are registered under the Securities Act and are not subject to the transfer restrictions and certain registration rights agreement provisions applicable to the Original Notes.

The Company’s 1.75% senior unsecured notes due October 1, 2027 (the “2027 Notes”) were issued September 29, 2020, at 99.67% of the principal amount of $350.0 million. The 2027 Notes bear interest, payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1, at a rate of 1.75% per year. In connection with the 2027 Notes offering, the Company incurred $2.9 million of debt issuance costs.

The Company’s 3.50% senior unsecured notes due 2032 (the “2032 Notes”) were issued March 4, 2022, at 99.61% of the principal amount of $350.0 million. The 2032 Notes bear interest, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15, at a rate of 3.50% per year. In connection with the 2032 Notes offering, the Company incurred $3.2 million of debt issuance costs.

The Company’s 5.90% senior unsecured notes due March 9, 2026 (the “2026 Notes”) were issued March 9, 2023, at 99.94% of the principal amount of $300.0 million. The 2026 Notes bear interest, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 9 and September 9, at a rate of 5.90% per year. In connection with the 2026 Notes offering, the Company incurred $1.6 million of debt issuance costs.

The Company’s 5.95% senior unsecured notes due March 9, 2028 (the “2028 Notes”) were issued March 9, 2023, at 99.92% of the principal amount of $300.0 million. The 2028 Notes bear interest, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 9 and September 9, at a rate of 5.95% per year. In connection with the 2028 Notes offering, the Company incurred $1.9 million of debt issuance costs.

11

The Company may redeem some or all of the 2026 Notes and 2028 Notes (the “Notes”) at any time, or from time to time, prior to March 9, 2026 in the case of the 2026 Notes, or February 9, 2028 in the case of the 2028 Notes, at the redemption price described in the related indenture for the Notes (the “Indenture”). In the event of a change of control triggering event, as defined in the Indenture, the Company will be required to offer the repurchase of the Notes at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the repurchase date. Currently, the Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on an unsubordinated unsecured basis by guarantor and subsidiary guarantees, as defined by the Indenture.

Debt Guarantees

The Company is a guarantor of loans made by banks to various independently owned Carquest-branded stores that are customers of the Company. These loans totaled $105.5 million and $106.9 million as of July 13, 2024 and December 30, 2023 and are collateralized by security agreements on merchandise inventory and other assets of the borrowers. The approximate value of the inventory collateralized by these agreements was $189.8 million and $221.2 million as of July 13, 2024 and December 30, 2023. The Company believes that the likelihood of performance under these guarantees is remote.

7.    Leases

Substantially all of the Company’s leases are for facilities, vehicles and equipment. The initial term for facilities is typically five to ten years, with renewal options typically at five-year intervals, with the exercise of lease renewal options at the Company’s sole discretion. The Company’s vehicle and equipment lease terms are typically three to six years. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

Total lease cost is included in cost of sales and SG&A in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and is recorded net of immaterial sublease income. Total lease cost comprised the following:
Twelve Weeks EndedTwenty-Eight Weeks Ended
July 13, 2024July 15, 2023July 13, 2024July 15, 2023

During first quarter 2024, the Company entered into a sale-leaseback transaction where the Company sold a building and land and entered into a three-year lease of the property upon the sale. This transaction resulted in a gain of $22.3 million and is included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

8.    Share Repurchase Program

The Company’s Board of Directors had previously authorized $2.7 billion to its share repurchase program. The share repurchase program permits the repurchase of the Company’s common stock on the open market and in privately negotiated transactions from time to time.

During the twelve and twenty-eight weeks ended July 13, 2024 and July 15, 2023, the Company did not purchase any shares of the Company’s common stock under the share repurchase program. The Company had $947.3 million remaining under the share repurchase program as of July 13, 2024.

9.    Earnings per Share

The computations of basic and diluted earnings per share were as follows:

(1) For the twelve weeks ended July 13, 2024 and July 15, 2023, 491 thousand and 402 thousand restricted stock units (“RSUs”) were excluded from the diluted calculation as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. For the twenty-eight weeks ended July 13, 2024 and July 15, 2023, 385 thousand and 289 thousand RSUs were excluded from the diluted calculation as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.


10.    Share-Based Compensation

The Company grants options to purchase common stock to certain employees under the Company’s 2023 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan. The general terms of the time-based and market-based RSUs and stock options are similar to awards previously granted by the Company. The Company records compensation expense for the grant date fair value of the option awards evenly over the vesting period.

During the twelve and twenty-eight weeks ended July 13, 2024, the Company granted the following time-based and market-based RSUs:

The fair value of each market-based RSU was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model. For time-based RSUs, the fair value of each award was determined based on the market price of the Company’s stock on the date of grant adjusted for expected dividends during the vesting period, as applicable.

During the twelve and twenty-eight weeks ended July 13, 2024, the Company granted the following stock options:

Twelve Weeks EndedTwenty-Eight Weeks Ended
Number of awards9.8 203.5

(1) The risk-free interest rate is based on the yield in effect at grant for zero-coupon U.S. Treasury notes with maturities equivalent to the expected term of the stock options.
(2) The expected term represents the period of time options granted are expected to be outstanding. As the Company does not have sufficient historical data, the Company utilized the simplified method provided by the SEC to calculate the expected term as the average of the contractual term and vesting period.
(3) Expected volatility is the measure of the amount by which the stock price has fluctuated or is expected to fluctuate. The Company utilized historical trends and the implied volatility of the Company’s publicly traded financial instruments in developing the volatility estimate for its stock options.
(4) The expected dividend yield is calculated based on our expected quarterly dividend and the three month average stock price as of the grant date.

The total income tax benefit related to share-based compensation expense for the twelve and twenty-eight weeks ended July 13, 2024 was $2.7 million and $6.6 million. As of July 13, 2024, there was $100.3 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to all share-based awards that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.7 years.

11. Supplier Finance Programs

The Company maintains supply chain financing agreements with third-party financial institutions to provide the Company’s suppliers with enhanced receivables options. Through these agreements, the Company’s suppliers, at their sole discretion, may elect to sell their receivables due from the Company to the third-party financial institution at terms negotiated between the supplier and the third-party financial institution. The Company does not provide any guarantees to any third party in connection with these financing arrangements. The Company’s obligations to suppliers, including amounts due and scheduled payment terms, are not impacted, and no assets are pledged under the agreements. All outstanding amounts due to third-party financial institutions related to suppliers participating in such financing arrangements are recorded within accounts payable and represent obligations outstanding under these supplier finance programs for invoices that were confirmed as valid and owed to the third-party financial institutions in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of July 13, 2024, and December 30, 2023, $3.2 billion and $3.4 billion of the Company’s accounts payable were to suppliers participating in these financing arrangements.

13. Contingencies

On October 9, 2023, and October 27, 2023, two putative class actions on behalf of purchasers of the Company’s securities who purchased or otherwise acquired their securities between November 16, 2022, and May 30, 2023, inclusive (the “Class Period”), were commenced against the Company and certain of the Company’s former officers in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina. The plaintiffs allege that the defendants made certain false and materially misleading statements during the alleged Class Period in violation of Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder. These cases were consolidated on February 9, 2024, and the court-appointed lead plaintiff filed a consolidated and amended complaint on April 22, 2024. The consolidated and amended complaint proposes a Class Period of November 16, 2022 to November 15, 2023, and alleges that defendants made false and misleading statements in connection with (a) the Company’s 2023 guidance and (b) certain accounting issues previously disclosed by the Company. On June 21, 2024, defendants filed a motion to dismiss the consolidated and amended complaint. The Company strongly disputes the allegations and intends to defend the case vigorously.

On January 17, 2024, February 20, 2024, and February 26, 2024, derivative shareholder complaints were commenced against the Company’s directors and certain former officers alleging derivative liability for the allegations made in the securities class action complaints noted above. On April 9, 2024, the court consolidated these actions and appointed co-lead counsel. On June 10, 2024, the court issued a stay order on the consolidated derivative complaint pending resolution of the motion to dismiss for the underlying securities class action complaint.

14. Subsequent Event

On August 22, 2024, the Company entered into a definitive purchase agreement to sell its Worldpac business for $1.5 billion, with customary adjustments for working capital and other items. The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2024. The Company expects net proceeds from the transaction after paying expenses and taxes to be approximately $1.2 billion. The Company intends to use net proceeds from the transaction for general corporate purposes, which may include the provision of additional working capital, funding internal operational improvement initiatives, and repayment or refinancing of outstanding indebtedness.

ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 30, 2023 (filed with the SEC on March 12, 2024, and the amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC on May 30, 2024 (collectively the “2023 Form 10-K”)), and the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes to those statements that appear elsewhere in this report. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full year. The Company’s first quarter of the year contains sixteen weeks. The Company’s remaining three quarters each consist of twelve weeks.

Management Overview

A high-level summary of the Company’s financial results for the second quarter of 2024 includes:
 
Net sales during the second quarter of 2024 were $2.68 billion, a decrease of 0.1% compared with the second quarter of 2023. Comparable store sales increased 0.4%.
Gross profit margin for the second quarter of 2024 was 41.5% of net sales, a decrease of 93 basis points compared with the second quarter of 2023. Gross profit margin was negatively impacted by strategic pricing investments and higher product costs.
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for the second quarter of 2024 were 38.9% of net sales, an increase of 109 basis points compared with the second quarter of 2023. This was primarily due to higher labor costs.
The Company generated diluted earnings per share (“Diluted EPS”) of $0.75 during the second quarter of 2024, compared with $1.32 for the comparable period of 2023.

Business and Risks Update

The Company continues to make progress on the various elements of the Company’s strategic business plan, which is focused on improving the customer experience, margin expansion, and driving consistent execution for both professional and DIY customers. To achieve these improvements, the Company has undertaken planned strategic actions to help build a foundation for long-term success across the organization, which include:

Entering into a definitive purchase agreement on August 22, 2024 to sell Worldpac for $1.5 billion, with customary adjustments for working capital and other items. The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2024;
Reducing costs to remain competitive while reinvesting in the frontline;
Making organizational changes to position the Company for success;
Assessing the productivity of all assets, including company-owned stores and Carquest Independents; and
Consolidating the Company’s supply chain.

The entry into the definitive agreement for the sale of Worldpac was part of the Company’s previously announced strategic and operational review. As part of this review, the Company also previously announced that it was evaluating whether to divest the Company’s Canadian business. The Company's Canadian business predominantly serves commercial customers and operates under the Carquest banner. The Company has determined to retain its Canadian business. The strategic and operational review is ongoing.

Inflationary pressures, including logistics and labor
Global supply chain disruptions
Cost of fuel
Miles driven
Unemployment rates
Interest rates
Consumer confidence and purchasing power

Net Sales

For the second quarter of 2024, net sales decreased 0.1% and comparable store sales increased 0.4% compared with the second quarter of 2023. Category growth was led by heating and cooling, fluids and chemicals and engine management.

Net sales for the twenty-eight weeks ended July 13, 2024, decreased 0.2% compared with the same period in 2023. Comparable store sales increased 0.03% for the twenty-eight weeks ended July 13, 2024, compared with the twenty-eight weeks ended July 15, 2023. Category growth was led by batteries, filters and engine management.

The Company calculates comparable store sales based on the change in store or branch sales starting once a location has been open for approximately one year and by including e-commerce sales and excluding sales fulfilled by distribution centers to independently owned Carquest locations. Acquired stores are included in the Company’s comparable store sales one year after acquisition. The Company includes sales from relocated stores in comparable store sales from the original date of opening.

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the second quarter of 2024 was $1.11 billion, or 41.5% of net sales, compared with $1.14 billion, or 42.5% of net sales, for the second quarter of 2023.

21

Gross profit for the twenty-eight weeks ended July 13, 2024 and July 15, 2023 was $2.54 billion, or 41.8% of Net sales, and $2.60 billion, or 42.6% of Net sales.

During the second quarter of 2024 and the twenty-eight weeks ended July 13, 2024, gross profit margin was negatively impacted by strategic pricing investments and higher product costs.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

SG&A expenses for the second quarter of 2024 were $1.04 billion, or 38.9% of net sales, compared with $1.01 billion, or 37.8% of net sales, for the second quarter of 2023. The increase of SG&A as a percentage of net sales was due to wage investments in frontline team members as well as an increase in professional fees, including costs associated with the implementation of the Company’s strategic plan and the remediation of the previously disclosed material weaknesses. This was partially offset by a reduction in marketing program expenses.

SG&A expenses for the twenty-eight weeks ended July 13, 2024 were $2.39 billion, or 39.2% of Net sales, compared with $2.38 billion, or 39.0% of Net sales, for the twenty-eight weeks ended July 15, 2023.

Provision for Income Taxes

The Company’s provision for income taxes for the second quarter of 2024 was $17.1 million compared with $28.2 million for the same period in 2023. The Company’s provision for income taxes for the twenty-eight weeks ended July 13, 2024 and July 15, 2023 was $36.9 million and $47.4 million. The decrease in tax expense for the second quarter of 2024 and the twenty-eight weeks ended July 13, 2024 resulted from lower income before provision for income taxes compared with prior year.

The Company’s effective tax rate was 30.3% and 27.2% for the twenty-eight weeks ended July 13, 2024 and July 15, 2023.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

The Company’s primary cash requirements necessary to maintain the Company’s current operations include payroll and benefits, inventory purchases, contractual obligations, capital expenditures, payment of income taxes, funding of initiatives and other operational priorities, including payment of interest on the Company’s long-term debt. Historically, the Company has also used available funds to repay borrowings under the Company’s credit facility, to periodically repurchase shares of the Company’s common stock under the share repurchase program, to pay the Company’s quarterly cash dividend and for acquisitions. However, the Company’s future uses of cash may differ, including with respect to the weight the Company places on the preservation of cash and liquidity, degree of investment in the Company’s business and other capital allocation priorities.

Typically, the Company has funded its cash requirements primarily through cash generated from operations, supplemented by borrowings under the Company’s credit facilities and note offerings as needed. On August 22, 2024, the Company entered into a definitive purchase agreement to sell its Worldpac business for $1.5 billion, with customary adjustments for working capital and other items, as well as provision of a $200 million letter of credit for up to 12 months following the closing of the transaction, which letter of credit will reduce to zero no later than 24 months after the closing, to support supply chain financing for the buyer. The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2024. The Company expects net proceeds from the transaction after paying expenses and taxes to be approximately $1.2 billion. The Company intends to use net proceeds from the transaction for general corporate purposes, which may include the provision of additional working capital, funding internal operational improvement initiatives and repayment or refinancing of outstanding indebtedness. The Company believes funds generated from its expected results of operations, available cash and cash equivalents,
22

net proceeds from the Worldpac sale and available borrowings under credit facilities and note offerings as needed will be sufficient to fund its obligations for the next year and beyond.

The Company’s supplier finance programs did not have a material impact on its liquidity or capital resources in the periods presented nor does the Company expect such arrangements to have a material impact on its liquidity for the foreseeable future. However, as further described below, a future decline in our credit ratings would be expected to result in a significant impact to bank participation in the Company’s supplier finance programs. While the Company does not expect such an impact to have a material impact on our overall liquidity, the Company does expect that it would have a material impact on its capital resources and capital allocation. See Note 11. Supplier Finance Programs of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion.

Share Repurchase Program

The Company’s share repurchase program permits the repurchase of the Company’s common stock on the open market and in privately negotiated transactions from time to time. The Company expects to continue its temporary pause on repurchases under the existing share repurchase program and to continue to evaluate current and expected business conditions with respect to resumption of share repurchase activity.

During the second quarter and twenty-eight weeks ended July 13, 2024 and July 15, 2023, the Company did not purchase any shares of its common stock under the share repurchase program. The Company had $947.3 million remaining under the share repurchase program as of July 13, 2024.

Analysis of Cash Flows

The following table summarizes the Company’s cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities:

Operating Activities

For the twenty-eight weeks ended July 13, 2024, cash flows provided by operating activities increased by $254.9 million to $87.8 million compared with the same period of prior year. The net increase in cash flows provided by operating activities was primarily attributable to a decrease in cash utilized for working capital mainly due to accounts payable payments and inventory purchases.

Investing Activities

For the twenty-eight weeks ended July 13, 2024, cash flows used in investing activities decreased by $63.7 million to $79.6 million compared with the same period of prior year. The decrease in cash used in investing activities was attributable to lower capital spend due to fewer store openings and projects in the current year coupled with higher proceeds on asset sales (see Note 7. Leases for additional information).

23

Financing Activities

For the twenty-eight weeks ended July 13, 2024, cash flows used in financing activities was $43.0 million, a decrease of $356.9 million compared with the same period of prior year. The decrease in cash provided by financing activities was due to the issuances of senior unsecured notes in the prior year and a decrease in dividends paid during the twenty-eight weeks ended July 13, 2024 compared with the same period of prior year.

The Company’s Board of Directors has declared a cash dividend every quarter since 2006. Any payments of dividends in the future will be at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors and will depend upon the Company’s results of operations, cash flows, capital requirements and other factors deemed relevant by the Board of Directors.

Long-Term Debt

With respect to all senior unsecured notes for which Advance Auto Parts, Inc. (“Issuer”) is an issuer or provides full and unconditional guarantee, Advance Stores, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Issuer, serves as the guarantor (“Guarantor Subsidiary”). The subsidiary guarantees related to the Issuer’s senior unsecured notes are full and unconditional and joint and several, and there are no restrictions on the ability of the Issuer to obtain funds from its Guarantor Subsidiary. The Company’s captive insurance subsidiary, an insignificant wholly owned subsidiary of the Issuer, does not serve as guarantor of its senior unsecured notes.

For additional information, refer to Note 6. Long-term Debt and Fair Value of Financial Instruments of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included herein.

As of July 13, 2024, the Company had a credit rating from Standard & Poor’s of BB+ and from Moody’s Investor Service of Baa3. As of July 13, 2024, the outlooks by Standard & Poor’s and Moody’s on the Company’s credit rating were stable and negative. The current pricing grid used to determine the Company’s borrowing rate under the Credit Agreement is based on the Company’s credit ratings. The Company anticipates that it may receive a future downgrade in its credit ratings dependent on the strengthening of its balance sheet and the success and timing of its efforts to improve business operations. If the Company’s credit ratings decline, the interest rate on outstanding balances may increase and the Company’s access to additional financing on favorable terms may be limited. In addition, declines could reduce the attractiveness of certain supplier finance programs whereby third-party institutions finance arrangements to the Company’s vendors based on the Company’s credit rating, which could result in increased working capital requirements. The Company expects that a future decline in its credit ratings would have a significant impact on bank participation in its supplier finance programs, resulting in increased working capital requirements. The Company believes that its sources of cash, together with its ability to generate cash through existing or new credit facilities and notes offerings as needed, will be sufficient to fund any increases in working capital requirements.

ITEM 3.QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There have been no significant changes in the Company’s exposure to market risk since December 30, 2023. Refer to “Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” in the Company’s 2023 Form 10-K.

ITEM 4.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), are our controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal
24

executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Internal controls over financial reporting, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations, including the possibility of human error and the override of controls. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only “reasonable assurance” with respect to the reliability of financial reporting and financial statement preparation and presentation. Further, because of changes in conditions, the effectiveness of our internal controls may vary over time.

Our management evaluated, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of July 13, 2024. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to accomplish their objectives at the reasonable assurance level solely due to the material weaknesses described below.

Material Weaknesses in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Details on Accounting Resources Material Weakness

In our Form 10-Q for the period ended April 22, 2023, management identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting that existed due to turnover of key accounting positions during the first quarter of 2023. The Company was unable to attract, develop and retain sufficient resources to fulfill internal control responsibilities during the first quarter 2023.

Details on Account Reconciliation Material Weakness

In addition, as disclosed in our Form 10-Q for the period ended April 20, 2024, in connection with the preparation of the financial statements for the first quarter of 2024, management identified certain cash account reconciliations whereby a former employee in the Company’s India-based shared services center circumvented a cash reconciliation controls policy and concealed unreconciled items. This individual did not follow the Company’s policy to display all reconciling items in the reconciliation process. The Company believes the cash reconciliation policy noncompliance primarily related to inadequately trained and supervised personnel and is closely linked to the material weakness disclosed in the Form 10-Q for the period ended April 22, 2023.

Remediation Efforts to Address the Material Weaknesses

The Company has devoted significant time and resources to complete its remediation of the material weaknesses described above and has made significant progress towards the remediation during the second quarter of 2024. The following components of the remediation plan, among others, have been executed:

Backfilled open roles and hired approximately 40 experienced personnel, an increase of 37% from the first quarter of 2024, (both permanent employees and contract labor) with the requisite accounting and internal controls knowledge and experience to sufficiently complement the existing global controllership organization;
Completed the review of the organizational structure of the global controllership function by a third-party consultant and implemented recommended changes;
Assessed our methodologies, policies, and procedures to ensure adequate design and effectiveness of processes supporting internal control over financial reporting;
Added redundant and compensating internal controls to enhance our internal control structure;
Assessed the specific training needs for newly hired and existing personnel and developed and delivered training programs designed to uphold our internal controls standards. Monthly trainings have been held with account reconciliation preparers and reviewers along with target trainings for individual control owners;
25

Implemented a new quality control function within management in the second quarter of 2024 to perform quality reviews of account reconciliations prior to independent control testing;
Following the departure of the Company’s Chief Financial Officer during the third fiscal quarter of 2023, hired a new Chief Financial Officer who began employment with the Company on November 27, 2023;
Following the departure of the Company’s Chief Accounting Officer during the fourth fiscal quarter of 2023, hired a new Chief Accounting Officer who began employment with the Company on January 9, 2024; and
Reperformed cash reconciliations for 2023 year end and during the period ended July 13, 2024, and will continue to execute the same comprehensive testing until this matter is considered fully remediated.

The Company considers that the actions described above are comprehensive and have strengthened the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. The significant progress observed to date provides evidence that the remediation efforts are effective in improving the control environment. Given the time that the open roles have been filled and the expanded control activities have been in place, the Company believes that additional time will be beneficial to demonstrate that personnel have the ability to consistently perform their responsibilities to ensure that the material weaknesses have been fully remediated. Therefore, the Company has concluded that these material weaknesses will not be considered fully remediated until the remediation actions, including those above, have operated effectively for a sufficient period of time. Consistent with prior quarter, the Company is targeting completion of the remediation and testing of these material weaknesses in the second half of fiscal 2024.

Management believes that the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related financial information included in this Form 10-Q present fairly, in all material respects, our balance sheets, statements of operations, comprehensive income and cash flows as of and for the periods presented.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Except for the changes described above, there has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the second quarter ended July 13, 2024, that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect its internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act.

PART II.     OTHER INFORMATION
None.

ITEM 1.     LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
On October 9, 2023, and October 27, 2023, two putative class actions on behalf of purchasers of the Company’s securities who purchased or otherwise acquired their securities between November 16, 2022 and May 30, 2023, inclusive (the “Class Period”), were commenced against the Company and certain of the Company’s former officers in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina. The plaintiffs allege that the defendants made certain false and materially misleading statements during the alleged Class Period in violation of Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder. These cases were consolidated on February 9, 2024, and the court-appointed lead plaintiff filed a consolidated and amended complaint on April 22, 2024. The consolidated and amended complaint proposes a Class Period of November 16, 2022 to November 15, 2023 and alleges that defendants made false and misleading statements in connection with (a) the Company’s 2023 guidance and (b) certain accounting issues previously disclosed by the Company. On June 21, 2024, defendants filed a motion to dismiss the consolidated and amended complaint. The Company strongly disputes the allegations and intends to defend the case vigorously.

On January 17, 2024, February 20, 2024, and February 26, 2024, derivative shareholder complaints were commenced against the Company’s directors and certain former officers alleging derivative liability for the allegations made in the securities class action complaints noted above. On April 9, 2024, the court consolidated these actions and appointed co-lead counsel. On June 10, 2024, the court issued a stay order on the consolidated
26

derivative complaint pending resolution of the motion to dismiss for the underlying securities class action complaint.

ITEM 1A.RISK FACTORS
Please refer to “Item 1A. Risk Factors found in the 2023 Form 10-K filed for the year ended December 30, 2023 for risks that, if they were to occur, could materially adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and future prospects, which could in turn materially affect the price of the Company’s common stock.

Legal Matters and Contingencies
13. Contingencies

On October 9, 2023, and October 27, 2023, two putative class actions on behalf of purchasers of the Company’s securities who purchased or otherwise acquired their securities between November 16, 2022, and May 30, 2023, inclusive (the “Class Period”), were commenced against the Company and certain of the Company’s former officers in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina. The plaintiffs allege that the defendants made certain false and materially misleading statements during the alleged Class Period in violation of Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder. These cases were consolidated on February 9, 2024, and the court-appointed lead plaintiff filed a consolidated and amended complaint on April 22, 2024. The consolidated and amended complaint proposes a Class Period of November 16, 2022 to November 15, 2023, and alleges that defendants made false and misleading statements in connection with (a) the Company’s 2023 guidance and (b) certain accounting issues previously disclosed by the Company. On June 21, 2024, defendants filed a motion to dismiss the consolidated and amended complaint. The Company strongly disputes the allegations and intends to defend the case vigorously.

On January 17, 2024, February 20, 2024, and February 26, 2024, derivative shareholder complaints were commenced against the Company’s directors and certain former officers alleging derivative liability for the allegations made in the securities class action complaints noted above. On April 9, 2024, the court consolidated these actions and appointed co-lead counsel. On June 10, 2024, the court issued a stay order on the consolidated derivative complaint pending resolution of the motion to dismiss for the underlying securities class action complaint.

Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation
Description of Business

Advance Auto Parts, Inc. and subsidiaries is a leading automotive aftermarket parts provider in North America, serving both professional installers (“professional”) and “do-it-yourself” (“DIY”) customers. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Advance Auto Parts, Inc., its wholly owned subsidiaries, Advance Stores Company, Incorporated (“Advance Stores”) and Neuse River Insurance Company, Inc., and their subsidiaries (collectively referred to as “the Company”).

As of July 13, 2024, the Company operated a total of 4,776 stores and 321 branches primarily within the United States, with additional locations in Canada, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. In addition, as of July 13, 2024, the Company served 1,138 independently owned Carquest branded stores across the same geographic locations served by the Company’s stores and branches in addition to Mexico and various Caribbean islands. The Company’s stores operate primarily under the trade names “Advance Auto Parts” and “Carquest” and the Company’s branches operate under the “Worldpac” and “Autopart International” trade names.

Basis of Presentation

The accounting policies followed in the presentation of interim financial results are consistent with those followed on an annual basis. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), have been condensed or omitted based upon the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) interim reporting principles. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2023 as filed with the SEC on March 12, 2024, and the amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC on May 30, 2024 (collectively the “2023 Form 10-K”).

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments that are necessary to present fairly the results for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full year. The Company’s first quarter of the year contains sixteen weeks. The Company’s remaining three quarters each consist of twelve weeks.

Revision of Previously Issued Financial Statements for Correction of Immaterial Errors

During the year ended December 30, 2023, the Company identified errors impacting cost of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) and other income (expense), net, of $62.9 million, $36.6 million and $1.7 million incurred in prior years but not previously recognized. These charges primarily related to product costs and vendor credits. Management assessed the materiality of the errors, including the presentation on prior period consolidated financial statements, on a qualitative and quantitative basis in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 99, Materiality, codified in Accounting Standards Codification Topic 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections. The Company concluded that these errors and the related impacts did not result in a material misstatement of its previously issued consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022 and its previously issued unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements as of and for the sixteen weeks ended April 22, 2023; the twelve and twenty-eight weeks ended July 15, 2023; and the twelve and forty weeks ended October 7, 2023. Correcting the cumulative effect of these errors in the fifty-two weeks ended December 30, 2023 would have had a significant effect on the results of operations for such period.
The Company has corrected the relevant prior periods of its consolidated financial statements and related footnotes for these and other immaterial corrections for comparative purposes, as previously disclosed in Note 18. Immaterial Restatement of Prior Period Financial Statements of the Company’s 2023 Form 10-K. The Company will also adjust previously reported financial information for such immaterial errors in future filings, as applicable. A summary of the corrections to the impacted financial statement line items from our previously issued financial statements are presented in

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements - Not Yet Adopted

Disclosure Improvements

In October 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements (“ASU 2023-06”), which defines when companies will be required to improve and clarify disclosure and presentation requirements. This ASU should be applied prospectively, and the effective date will be determined for each individual disclosure based on the effective date of the SEC’s removal of the related disclosure. If the applicable requirements have not been removed by the SEC by June 30, 2027, this ASU will not become effective. Early adoption is prohibited. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2023-06 on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures, and does not believe it will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”), which requires a company to disclose additional, more detailed information about a reportable segment’s significant expenses, even if there is one reportable segment, and is intended to improve the disclosures about a public entity’s reportable segments. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2023-07 and believes that the adoption will result in additional disclosures, but will not have any other impact on its consolidated financial statements and segment reporting.

Income Tax Disclosure Improvements

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (“ASU 2023-09”), which requires a company to enhance its income tax disclosures. In each annual reporting period, the company should disclose the specific categories used in the rate reconciliation and additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold, including disaggregation of taxes paid by jurisdiction. The related disclosures are effective for the fiscal
year beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2023-09 on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures and believes that the adoption will result in additional disclosures, but will not have any other impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Climate Disclosure Requirements

In March 2024, the SEC issued its final climate disclosure rules, which require the disclosure of climate-related information in annual reports and registration statements. The rules require disclosure in the audited financial statements of certain effects of severe weather events and other natural conditions and greenhouse gas emissions above certain financial thresholds, as well as amounts related to carbon offsets and renewable energy credits or certificates, if material. Additionally, the rule established disclosure requirements regarding material climate-related risks, descriptions of board oversight and risk management activities, the material impacts of these risks on a registrants' strategy, business model and outlook and any material climate-related targets or goals. On April 4, 2024, the SEC determined to voluntarily stay the final rules pending certain legal challenges. Prior to the stay in the new rules, disclosures would have been effective for annual periods beginning January 1, 2025, except for the greenhouse gas emissions disclosure which would have been effective for annual periods beginning January 1, 2026. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new rules on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Inventory Disclosure [Abstract]  
Inventories Inventories, net
The Company used the last in, first out (“LIFO”) method of accounting for approximately 91.3% of inventories as of July 13, 2024 and 91.4% as of December 30, 2023. As a result, the Company recorded a reduction to cost of sales of $37.4 million and $26.8 million for the twelve weeks ended July 13, 2024 and July 15, 2023 to state inventories at LIFO. For the twenty-eight weeks ended July 13, 2024 and July 15, 2023, the Company recorded a reduction to cost of sales of $42.4 million and $33.5 million to state inventories at LIFO.

Purchasing and warehousing costs included in inventories as of July 13, 2024 and December 30, 2023 were $559.7 million and $576.9 million.

An actual valuation of inventory under the LIFO method is performed at the end of each fiscal year based on inventory levels and carrying costs at that time. Accordingly, interim LIFO calculations are based on the Company’s estimates of expected inventory levels and costs at the end of the year.

Inventory balances were as follows:

Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities

The fair value of the Company’s senior unsecured notes was determined using Level 2 inputs based on quoted market prices. The carrying amounts of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, receivables, net, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values due to the relatively short-term nature of these instruments.

Bank Debt

On February 26, 2024, the Company entered into Amendment No. 4 (“Amendment No. 4”) to the Company’s unsecured revolving credit facility (“2021 Credit Agreement”) to enable certain addbacks to the definition of Consolidated Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”) contained therein for specific write-downs of inventory and vendor receivables. Amendment No. 4 also updated certain limitations on future incurrences of other indebtedness and liens, replacing the cap thereon of 10% of consolidated net tangible assets with $400 million, and eliminated the $250 million basket for accounts receivable securitization transactions. Amendment No. 4 made no other material changes to the terms of the 2021 Credit Agreement.

The 2021 Credit Agreement contains customary covenants restricting the ability of: (a) Advance Auto Parts, Inc. and its subsidiaries to, among other things, (i) create, incur or assume additional debt (only with respect to subsidiaries of Advance Auto Parts, Inc.), (ii) incur liens, (iii) guarantee obligations, and (iv) change the nature of
their business; (b) Advance Auto Parts, Inc., Advance Stores and their subsidiaries to, among other things (i) enter into certain hedging arrangements, (ii) enter into restrictive agreements limiting their ability to incur liens on any of their property or assets, pay distributions, repay loans, or guarantee indebtedness of their subsidiaries; and (c) Advance Auto Parts, Inc., among other things, to change its holding company status. The Company is also required to comply with financial covenants with respect to a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum coverage ratio. The 2021 Credit Agreement also provides for customary events of default, including non-payment defaults, covenant defaults and cross-defaults of Advance’s other material indebtedness. The Company was in compliance with the financial covenants with respect to the 2021 Credit Agreement as of July 13, 2024.

As of July 13, 2024 and December 30, 2023, the Company had no outstanding borrowings, $1.2 billion of borrowing availability and no letters of credit outstanding under the 2021 Credit Agreement.

As of July 13, 2024 and December 30, 2023, the Company had $90.8 million and $91.2 million of bilateral letters of credit issued separately from the 2021 Credit Agreement, none of which were drawn upon. These bilateral letters of credit generally have a term of one year or less and primarily serve as collateral for the Company’s self-insurance policies.

Senior Unsecured Notes

The Company’s 3.90% senior unsecured notes due April 15, 2030 (the “Original Notes”) were issued April 16, 2020, at 99.65% of the principal amount of $500.0 million, and were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Original Notes bear interest, payable semi-annually in arrears on April 15 and October 15, at a rate of 3.90% per year. On July 28, 2020, the Company completed an exchange offer whereby the Original Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $500.0 million were exchanged for a like principal amount (the “Exchange Notes” or “2030 Notes”), and which have been registered under the Securities Act. The Original Notes were substantially identical to the Exchange Notes, except the Exchange Notes are registered under the Securities Act and are not subject to the transfer restrictions and certain registration rights agreement provisions applicable to the Original Notes.

The Company’s 1.75% senior unsecured notes due October 1, 2027 (the “2027 Notes”) were issued September 29, 2020, at 99.67% of the principal amount of $350.0 million. The 2027 Notes bear interest, payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1, at a rate of 1.75% per year. In connection with the 2027 Notes offering, the Company incurred $2.9 million of debt issuance costs.

The Company’s 3.50% senior unsecured notes due 2032 (the “2032 Notes”) were issued March 4, 2022, at 99.61% of the principal amount of $350.0 million. The 2032 Notes bear interest, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15, at a rate of 3.50% per year. In connection with the 2032 Notes offering, the Company incurred $3.2 million of debt issuance costs.

The Company’s 5.90% senior unsecured notes due March 9, 2026 (the “2026 Notes”) were issued March 9, 2023, at 99.94% of the principal amount of $300.0 million. The 2026 Notes bear interest, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 9 and September 9, at a rate of 5.90% per year. In connection with the 2026 Notes offering, the Company incurred $1.6 million of debt issuance costs.

The Company’s 5.95% senior unsecured notes due March 9, 2028 (the “2028 Notes”) were issued March 9, 2023, at 99.92% of the principal amount of $300.0 million. The 2028 Notes bear interest, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 9 and September 9, at a rate of 5.95% per year. In connection with the 2028 Notes offering, the Company incurred $1.9 million of debt issuance costs.
The Company may redeem some or all of the 2026 Notes and 2028 Notes (the “Notes”) at any time, or from time to time, prior to March 9, 2026 in the case of the 2026 Notes, or February 9, 2028 in the case of the 2028 Notes, at the redemption price described in the related indenture for the Notes (the “Indenture”). In the event of a change of control triggering event, as defined in the Indenture, the Company will be required to offer the repurchase of the Notes at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the repurchase date. Currently, the Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on an unsubordinated unsecured basis by guarantor and subsidiary guarantees, as defined by the Indenture.

Debt Guarantees

The Company is a guarantor of loans made by banks to various independently owned Carquest-branded stores that are customers of the Company. These loans totaled $105.5 million and $106.9 million as of July 13, 2024 and December 30, 2023 and are collateralized by security agreements on merchandise inventory and other assets of the borrowers. The approximate value of the inventory collateralized by these agreements was $189.8 million and $221.2 million as of July 13, 2024 and December 30, 2023. The Company believes that the likelihood of performance under these guarantees is remote.
Supplier Finance Program
11. Supplier Finance Programs

The Company maintains supply chain financing agreements with third-party financial institutions to provide the Company’s suppliers with enhanced receivables options. Through these agreements, the Company’s suppliers, at their sole discretion, may elect to sell their receivables due from the Company to the third-party financial institution at terms negotiated between the supplier and the third-party financial institution. The Company does not provide any guarantees to any third party in connection with these financing arrangements. The Company’s obligations to suppliers, including amounts due and scheduled payment terms, are not impacted, and no assets are pledged under the agreements. All outstanding amounts due to third-party financial institutions related to suppliers participating in such financing arrangements are recorded within accounts payable and represent obligations outstanding under these supplier finance programs for invoices that were confirmed as valid and owed to the third-party financial institutions in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of July 13, 2024, and December 30, 2023, $3.2 billion and $3.4 billion of the Company’s accounts payable were to suppliers participating in these financing arrangements.

The Company grants options to purchase common stock to certain employees under the Company’s 2023 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan. The general terms of the time-based and market-based RSUs and stock options are similar to awards previously granted by the Company. The Company records compensation expense for the grant date fair value of the option awards evenly over the vesting period.

During the twelve and twenty-eight weeks ended July 13, 2024, the Company granted the following time-based and market-based RSUs:

(2) The expected term represents the period of time options granted are expected to be outstanding. As the Company does not have sufficient historical data, the Company utilized the simplified method provided by the SEC to calculate the expected term as the average of the contractual term and vesting period.
(3) Expected volatility is the measure of the amount by which the stock price has fluctuated or is expected to fluctuate. The Company utilized historical trends and the implied volatility of the Company’s publicly traded financial instruments in developing the volatility estimate for its stock options.
(4) The expected dividend yield is calculated based on our expected quarterly dividend and the three month average stock price as of the grant date.

The total income tax benefit related to share-based compensation expense for the twelve and twenty-eight weeks ended July 13, 2024 was $2.7 million and $6.6 million. As of July 13, 2024, there was $100.3 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to all share-based awards that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.7 years.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements - Adopted
Disclosure Improvements

In October 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements (“ASU 2023-06”), which defines when companies will be required to improve and clarify disclosure and presentation requirements. This ASU should be applied prospectively, and the effective date will be determined for each individual disclosure based on the effective date of the SEC’s removal of the related disclosure. If the applicable requirements have not been removed by the SEC by June 30, 2027, this ASU will not become effective. Early adoption is prohibited. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2023-06 on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures, and does not believe it will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”), which requires a company to disclose additional, more detailed information about a reportable segment’s significant expenses, even if there is one reportable segment, and is intended to improve the disclosures about a public entity’s reportable segments. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2023-07 and believes that the adoption will result in additional disclosures, but will not have any other impact on its consolidated financial statements and segment reporting.

Income Tax Disclosure Improvements

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (“ASU 2023-09”), which requires a company to enhance its income tax disclosures. In each annual reporting period, the company should disclose the specific categories used in the rate reconciliation and additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold, including disaggregation of taxes paid by jurisdiction. The related disclosures are effective for the fiscal
year beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2023-09 on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures and believes that the adoption will result in additional disclosures, but will not have any other impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Climate Disclosure Requirements

In March 2024, the SEC issued its final climate disclosure rules, which require the disclosure of climate-related information in annual reports and registration statements. The rules require disclosure in the audited financial statements of certain effects of severe weather events and other natural conditions and greenhouse gas emissions above certain financial thresholds, as well as amounts related to carbon offsets and renewable energy credits or certificates, if material. Additionally, the rule established disclosure requirements regarding material climate-related risks, descriptions of board oversight and risk management activities, the material impacts of these risks on a registrants' strategy, business model and outlook and any material climate-related targets or goals. On April 4, 2024, the SEC determined to voluntarily stay the final rules pending certain legal challenges. Prior to the stay in the new rules, disclosures would have been effective for annual periods beginning January 1, 2025, except for the greenhouse gas emissions disclosure which would have been effective for annual periods beginning January 1, 2026. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new rules on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
Leases Total lease cost is included in cost of sales and SG&A in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and is recorded net of immaterial sublease income.
Fair Value Measurement For time-based RSUs, the fair value of each award was determined based on the market price of the Company’s stock on the date of grant adjusted for expected dividends during the vesting period, as applicable.

Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities

The fair value of the Company’s senior unsecured notes was determined using Level 2 inputs based on quoted market prices. The carrying amounts of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, receivables, net, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values due to the relatively short-term nature of these instruments.

Bank Debt

On February 26, 2024, the Company entered into Amendment No. 4 (“Amendment No. 4”) to the Company’s unsecured revolving credit facility (“2021 Credit Agreement”) to enable certain addbacks to the definition of Consolidated Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”) contained therein for specific write-downs of inventory and vendor receivables. Amendment No. 4 also updated certain limitations on future incurrences of other indebtedness and liens, replacing the cap thereon of 10% of consolidated net tangible assets with $400 million, and eliminated the $250 million basket for accounts receivable securitization transactions. Amendment No. 4 made no other material changes to the terms of the 2021 Credit Agreement.

The 2021 Credit Agreement contains customary covenants restricting the ability of: (a) Advance Auto Parts, Inc. and its subsidiaries to, among other things, (i) create, incur or assume additional debt (only with respect to subsidiaries of Advance Auto Parts, Inc.), (ii) incur liens, (iii) guarantee obligations, and (iv) change the nature of
their business; (b) Advance Auto Parts, Inc., Advance Stores and their subsidiaries to, among other things (i) enter into certain hedging arrangements, (ii) enter into restrictive agreements limiting their ability to incur liens on any of their property or assets, pay distributions, repay loans, or guarantee indebtedness of their subsidiaries; and (c) Advance Auto Parts, Inc., among other things, to change its holding company status. The Company is also required to comply with financial covenants with respect to a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum coverage ratio. The 2021 Credit Agreement also provides for customary events of default, including non-payment defaults, covenant defaults and cross-defaults of Advance’s other material indebtedness. The Company was in compliance with the financial covenants with respect to the 2021 Credit Agreement as of July 13, 2024.

As of July 13, 2024 and December 30, 2023, the Company had no outstanding borrowings, $1.2 billion of borrowing availability and no letters of credit outstanding under the 2021 Credit Agreement.

As of July 13, 2024 and December 30, 2023, the Company had $90.8 million and $91.2 million of bilateral letters of credit issued separately from the 2021 Credit Agreement, none of which were drawn upon. These bilateral letters of credit generally have a term of one year or less and primarily serve as collateral for the Company’s self-insurance policies.

Senior Unsecured Notes

The Company’s 3.90% senior unsecured notes due April 15, 2030 (the “Original Notes”) were issued April 16, 2020, at 99.65% of the principal amount of $500.0 million, and were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Original Notes bear interest, payable semi-annually in arrears on April 15 and October 15, at a rate of 3.90% per year. On July 28, 2020, the Company completed an exchange offer whereby the Original Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $500.0 million were exchanged for a like principal amount (the “Exchange Notes” or “2030 Notes”), and which have been registered under the Securities Act. The Original Notes were substantially identical to the Exchange Notes, except the Exchange Notes are registered under the Securities Act and are not subject to the transfer restrictions and certain registration rights agreement provisions applicable to the Original Notes.

The Company’s 1.75% senior unsecured notes due October 1, 2027 (the “2027 Notes”) were issued September 29, 2020, at 99.67% of the principal amount of $350.0 million. The 2027 Notes bear interest, payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1, at a rate of 1.75% per year. In connection with the 2027 Notes offering, the Company incurred $2.9 million of debt issuance costs.

The Company’s 3.50% senior unsecured notes due 2032 (the “2032 Notes”) were issued March 4, 2022, at 99.61% of the principal amount of $350.0 million. The 2032 Notes bear interest, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15, at a rate of 3.50% per year. In connection with the 2032 Notes offering, the Company incurred $3.2 million of debt issuance costs.

The Company’s 5.90% senior unsecured notes due March 9, 2026 (the “2026 Notes”) were issued March 9, 2023, at 99.94% of the principal amount of $300.0 million. The 2026 Notes bear interest, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 9 and September 9, at a rate of 5.90% per year. In connection with the 2026 Notes offering, the Company incurred $1.6 million of debt issuance costs.

The Company’s 5.95% senior unsecured notes due March 9, 2028 (the “2028 Notes”) were issued March 9, 2023, at 99.92% of the principal amount of $300.0 million. The 2028 Notes bear interest, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 9 and September 9, at a rate of 5.95% per year. In connection with the 2028 Notes offering, the Company incurred $1.9 million of debt issuance costs.
The Company may redeem some or all of the 2026 Notes and 2028 Notes (the “Notes”) at any time, or from time to time, prior to March 9, 2026 in the case of the 2026 Notes, or February 9, 2028 in the case of the 2028 Notes, at the redemption price described in the related indenture for the Notes (the “Indenture”). In the event of a change of control triggering event, as defined in the Indenture, the Company will be required to offer the repurchase of the Notes at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the repurchase date. Currently, the Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on an unsubordinated unsecured basis by guarantor and subsidiary guarantees, as defined by the Indenture.

Debt Guarantees

The Company is a guarantor of loans made by banks to various independently owned Carquest-branded stores that are customers of the Company. These loans totaled $105.5 million and $106.9 million as of July 13, 2024 and December 30, 2023 and are collateralized by security agreements on merchandise inventory and other assets of the borrowers. The approximate value of the inventory collateralized by these agreements was $189.8 million and $221.2 million as of July 13, 2024 and December 30, 2023. The Company believes that the likelihood of performance under these guarantees is remote.
