RALEIGH, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Advance Auto Parts, Inc. (NYSE: AAP), a leading automotive aftermarket parts provider in North America, that serves both professional installer and do-it-yourself customers, announced its financial results for the second quarter ended July 16, 2022.

"In Q2 we delivered another quarter of growth in net sales and adjusted operating income, underscored by adjusted operating income margin expansion," said Tom Greco, president and chief executive officer. "Our adjusted operating income margin rate of 11.7% was the highest-level AAP has achieved in seven years. This helped enable a quarterly record for adjusted diluted earnings per share of $3.74, which increased 10.0% compared with Q2 2021 and 72% compared with Q2 2019. Additionally, we returned $291 million dollars to our shareholders through a combination of share repurchases and our quarterly cash dividend. This was despite a more challenging quarter on the topline than we expected, with net sales growing 0.6% and comparable store sales declining 0.6%. Our deliberate move to increase owned brand penetration reduced both net and comp sales by approximately one full point. Our DIY omnichannel sales were particularly challenged in the quarter and we expect that high inflation and significant year over year increases in fuel prices will continue to pressure DIY consumers in the back half of the year. As a result, we are updating our 2022 full year guidance.

“While our industry is not immune to the inflationary pressures consumers and broader retail have been experiencing, we believe our industry is well positioned for the long-term within the broader retail space to withstand these headwinds. In addition, our team continues to make progress on our strategic initiatives to drive long-term shareholder value. We remain relentlessly focused on customer service, parts availability and reliability of delivery. We're confident this will help enable sustainable sales growth, margin expansion and strong cash returns."
