The Credit Facility is comprised of a five-year $1.075 billion tranche A revolving credit facility and a five-year $125 million first-in-last-out revolving credit facility (FILO tranche), both of which mature on July 10, 2013. As of March 31,June 30, 2010, the amount of the borrowing base available under the Credit Facility was $1.197 billion, of which the Company had outstanding borrowings of $593.2$477.3 million. As of December 31, 2009, the amount of the borrowing base available under the credit facility was $1.196 billion, of which the Company had outstanding borrowings of $678.8 million. The available borrowings under the Credit Facility are also reduced by stand-by letters of credit issued by the Company primarily to satisfy the requirements of workers compensation, general liability and other insurance policies. As of March 31,June 30, 2010, the Company had stand-by letters of credit outstanding of $72.2$72.8 million and the aggregate availability for additional borrowings under the Credit Facility was $531.2$646.5 million. As of December 31, 2009, the Company had stand-by letters of credit outstanding in the amount of $72.3 million and the aggregate availability for additional borrowings under the credit facility was $445.2 million. As part of the Credit Facility, the Company has pledged substantially all of its assets as collateral and is subject to an ongoing consolidated leverage ratio covenant, with which the Company complied on March 31,June 30, 2010.

At March 31,June 30, 2010, borrowings under the tranche A revolver bore interest, at the Company’s option, at a rate equal to either a base rate plus 1.25% per annum or LIBOR plus 2.25% per annum, with each rate being subject to adjustment based upon certain excess availability thresholds. Borrowings under the FILO tranche bore interest, at the Company’s option, at a rate equal to either a base rate plus 2.50% per annum or LIBOR plus 3.50% per annum, with each rate being subject to adjustment based upon certain excess availability thresholds. The base rate is equal to the higher of the prime lending rate established by BA from time to time or the federal funds effective rate as in effect from time to time plus 0.50%, subject to adjustment based upon remaining available borrowings. Fees related to unused capacity under the Credit Facility are assessed at a rate of 0.375%0.50% of the remaining available borrowings under the facility, subject to adjustment based upon remaining unused capacity. In addition, the Company pays letter of credit fees and other administrative fees in respect to the Credit Facility. At March 31,June 30, 2010, the Company had borrowings of $143.2$27.3 million under its Credit Facility, which were not covered under an interest rate swap agreement, with interest rates ranging from 2.50%2.63% to 4.50%. At December 31, 2009, the Company had borrowings of $278.8 million under its Credit Facility, which were not covered under an interest rate swap agreement, with interest rates ranging from 2.50% to 4.50%.

On each of July 24, 2008, October 14, 2008, and January 21, 2010, the Company entered into interest rate swap transactions with Branch Banking and Trust Company (“BBT”), BA, SunTrust Bank (“SunTrust”) and/or Barclays Capital (“Barclays”). The Company entered into these interest rate swap transactions to mitigate the risk associated with its floating interest rate based on 30-day LIBOR on an aggregate of $450 million of its debt that is outstanding under the Credit Facility. The Company is required to make certain monthly fixed rate payments calculated on the notional amounts, while the applicable counter partycounterparty is obligated to make certain monthly floating rate payments to the Company referencing the same notional amount. The interest rate swap transactions effectively fix the annual interest rate payable on these notional amounts of the Company’s debt, which exists under the Credit Facility plus an applicable margin under the terms of the Credit Facility. The interest rate swap transactions have maturity dates ranging from August 1, 2010, through October 17, 2011.

The counterparties, transaction dates, effective dates, applicable notional amounts, effective index rates and maturity dates of each of the interest rate swap transactions which existed as of March 31,June 30, 2010, are included in the table below:

On July 11, 2008, the Company executed the Third Supplemental Indenture (the “Third Supplemental Indenture”) to the 6 3/4% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2025 (the “Notes”), in which it agreed to become a guarantor, on a subordinated basis, of the $100 million principal amount of the Notes originally issued by CSK pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of December 19, 2005, as amended and supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of December 30, 2005, and the Second Supplemental Indenture, dated as of July 27, 2006, by and between CSK Auto Corporation, CSK Auto, Inc. and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee. On December 31, 2008, and effective as of July 11, 2008, the Company entered into the Fourth Supplemental Indenture in order to correct the definition of Exchange Rate in the Third Supplemental Indenture.

The Notes are exchangeable, under certain circumstances, into cash and shares of the Company’s common stock. The Notes bear interest at 6.75% per year until December 15, 2010, and 6.50% until maturity on December 15, 2025. Prior to their stated maturity, the Notes are exchangeable by the holders only under the following circumstances (as more fully described in the indenture under which the Notes were issued):

 

Duringduring any fiscal quarter (and only during that fiscal quarter) commencing after July 11, 2008, if the last reported sale price of our common stock is greater than or equal to 130% of the applicable exchange price of $36.17 for at least 20 trading days in the period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the preceding fiscal quarter;

 

Ifif the Notes have been called for redemption by the Company; or

 

Uponupon the occurrence of specified corporate transactions, such as a change in control.

As of July 1, 2010, the Notes became exchangeable at the option of the holders and will remain exchangeable through September 30, 2010, the last trading day of the Company’s third quarter, as provided for in the Indenture governing the Notes. The Notes became exchangeable as the Company’s common stock closed at or above 130% of the Exchange Price (as defined in the Indenture governing the Notes) for 20 trading days within the 30 consecutive trading day period ending on June 30, 2010. As a result, during the exchange period commencing July 1, 2010, and continuing through and including September 30, 2010, for each $1,000 principal amount of the Notes held, holders of the Notes may, if they elect, surrender their Notes for exchange. If the Notes are exchanged, the Company will deliver cash equal to the lesser of the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be exchanged and the Company’s total exchange obligation and, in the event the Company’s total exchange obligation exceeds the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be exchanged, shares of the Company’s common stock in respect of that excess. The total exchange obligation reflects the exchange rate whereby each $1,000 in principal amount of the Notes is exchangeable into an equivalent value of 25.97 shares of ourthe Company’s common stock and $60.61 in cash. Incremental net shares forThe Notes currently have the Notes exchange feature were included in the diluted earnings per share calculation for the three months ended March 31, 2010; however, the incremental net shares for the Notes exchange feature were not included in the diluted earnings per share calculation for the three months ended March 31, 2009, as the impact would have been antidilutive.entire $100 million principal amount outstanding.

The noteholders may require the Company to repurchase some or all of the Notes for cash at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being repurchased, plus any accrued and unpaid interest on December 15, 2010; December 15, 2015; or December 15, 2020, or on any date following a fundamental change as described in the indenture. The Company may redeem some or all of the Notes for cash at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount plus any accrued and unpaid interest on or after December 15, 2010, upon at least 35-calendar days notice. The Company intends to redeem the Notes in December 2010, and plans to fund the redemption with available borrowings under its Credit Facility.

The Company distinguishes its financial instruments between permanent equity, temporary equity, and assets and liabilities. The share exchange feature and the embedded put and call options within the Notes are required to be accounted for as equity instruments. The difference between the fair value of the Notes at acquisition date and the fair value of the liability component on that date was $2.1 million, which was assigned to equity, and is fixed until the Notes are settled. The principal amount of the Notes as of March 31,June 30, 2010, and December 31, 2009, was $100 million and the net carrying amount of the Notes as of March 31,June 30, 2010, and December 31, 2009, was $100.5$100.3 million and $100.7 million, respectively. The unamortized premium on the Notes was $0.5$0.3 million as of March 31,June 30, 2010, which will be amortized over a period of approximately 0.7 year.through December 15, 2010. The unamortized premium on the Notes as of December 31, 2009, was $0.7 million. The if-converted value of the Notes as of March 31,June 30, 2010, calculated in accordance with the exchange obligation described above, was $108.4$128.2 million. The net interest expense related to the Notes for both the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2010, and 2009, was $1.5 million and $3.0 million, respectively, resulting in an effective interest rate of 6.0%. The net interest expense related to the Notes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, was $1.5 million and $3.0 million, respectively, resulting in an effective interest rate of 6.0%.

NOTE 5 – EXIT ACTIVITIES

The Company maintains reserves for closed stores and other properties that are no longer utilized in current operations. The Company accrues for closed property operating lease liabilities using a credit-adjusted discount rate to calculate the present value of the remaining noncancelable lease payments, contractual occupancy costs and lease termination fees after the closing date, net of estimated sublease income. The closed property lease liabilities are expected to be paid over the remaining lease terms, which currently extend through April 2023. The Company estimates sublease income and future cash flows based on the Company’s experience and knowledge of the market in which the closed property is located, the Company’s previous efforts to dispose of similar assets and existing economic conditions. Adjustments to closed property reserves are made to reflect changes in estimated sublease income or actual contracted exit costs, which vary from original estimates. Adjustments are made for material changes in estimates in the period in which the changes become known.

FollowingThe following table is a summary of closure reserves for stores, administrative office and distribution facilities, and reserves for employee separation costs at March 31,June 30, 2010, and December 31, 2009, (in thousands):

NOTE 6 – DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

Interest Rate Risk Management

As discussed in Note 4, on each of July 24, 2008, October 14, 2008, and January 21, 2010, the Company entered into interest rate swap transactions with BBT, BA, SunTrust and/or Barclays to mitigate cash flow risk associated with the floating interest rate, based on the one monthone-month LIBOR rate on an aggregate of $450 million of the debt outstanding under theits Credit Facility. The swap transactions have been designated as cash flow hedges with interest payments designed to offset the interest payments for borrowings under the Credit Facility that correspond to notional amounts of the swaps. The fair values of the Company’s outstanding hedges are recorded as a liability in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheetsCondensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at March 31,June 30, 2010, and December 31, 2009. Changes in fair value are recorded in “Accumulated other comprehensive loss”, and any changes resulting from ineffectiveness of the hedge transactions would be recorded in current earnings. The Company’s hedging instruments have been deemed to be highly effective as of March 31,June 30, 2010. The fair value of the swap transactions at March 31,June 30, 2010, was a payable of $11.6$8.9 million ($7.15.5 million net of tax). The fair value of the swap transactions at December 31, 2009, was a payable of $13.1 million ($8.0 million net of tax). The net amount of each is included as a component of “Accumulated other comprehensive loss.”

NOTE 7 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company uses the fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure the fair value of certain of its financial instruments. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level(Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level(Level 3 measurement). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are set forth below:

 

Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

 

Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in levelLevel 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. Level 2 includes those financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies. These models are primarily industry-standard models that consider various assumptions, including time value, volatility factors, and current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, as well as other relevant economic measures. Substantially all of these assumptions are observable in the marketplace throughout the full term of the instrument, can be derived from observable data or are supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace.

 

Level 3 – Pricing inputs include significant inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources. These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value from the perspective of a market participant.

The fair value of the interest rate swap transactions are based on the discounted net present value of the swap using third party quotes (level 2). Changes in fair market value are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss), and changes resulting from ineffectiveness are recorded in current earnings.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are based on one or more of three valuation techniques. The three valuation techniques are identified in the table below and are as follows:

 

 a)Market approach – prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities

 b)Cost approach – amount that would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset (replacement cost)

 

 c)Income approach – techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount based on market expectations (including present value techniques, option-pricing and excess earnings models)

The fair value of the interest rate swap transactions are based on the discounted net present value of the swap using third party quotes (Level 2). Changes in fair market value are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss), and changes resulting from ineffectiveness are recorded in current earnings. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as followsincluded in the table below (in thousands):

NOTE 9 – SHARE-BASED EMPLOYEE COMPENSATION PLANS AND OTHER BENEFIT PLANS

The Company recognizes share-based compensation expense based on the fair value of the awards at the time of the grant. Share-based payments include stock option awards issued under the Company’s employee stock option plan, director stock option plan, stock issued through the Company’s employee stock purchase plan and stock awarded to employees through other benefit programs.

Stock Options

The Company’s employee stock-based incentive plan provides for the granting of stock options for the purchase of common stock of the Company to directors and certain key employees of the Company. Options are granted at an exercise price that is equal to the market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant. Director options granted under the plan expire after seven years and are fully vested after six months. Employee options granted under the plan expire after ten years and typically vest 25% a year over four years. The Company records compensation expense for the grant date fair value of option awards evenly over the vesting period under the straight-line method. The following table summarizes the stock option activity during the first threesix months of 2010:

The Company recognized stock option compensation costs of approximately $3.8 million and $7.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, and recognized a corresponding income tax benefit of approximately $1.5 million and $2.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. The Company recognized stock option compensation costs of approximately $3.6 million and $3.3$6.9 million infor the first three and six months of 2010 andended June 30, 2009, respectively, and recognized a corresponding income tax benefit of approximately $1.4 million and $1.3$2.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively.

The fair value of each stock option grant is estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Black-Scholes model requires the use of assumptions, including expected volatility, expected life, the risk free rate and the expected dividend yield. Expected volatility is based upon the historical volatility of the Company’s stock. Expected life represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The Company uses historical data and experience to estimate the expected life of options granted. The risk free interest rate for periods within the contractual life of the options is based on the United States Treasury rates in effect at the time the options are granted for the options’ expected life.

The following weighted-average assumptions were used for grants issued in the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2010 and 2009:

The weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted during the first threesix months of 2010 was $12.22$13.25 compared to $9.00a weighted-average grant-date fair value of $10.39 for the first threesix months of 2009. The remaining unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested awards at March 31,June 30, 2010, was $37.8$36.7 million, and the weighted-average period of time over which this cost will be recognized is 2.72.6 years.

Other Employee Benefit Plans

The Company sponsors other share-based employee benefit plans including a contributory profit sharing and savings plan that covers substantially all employees, an employee stock purchase plan which permits all eligible employees to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at 85% of the fair market value and a performance incentive plan under which the Company’s senior management is awarded shares of restricted stock that vest equally over a three-year period. Compensation expense recognized under these plans is measured based on the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of award and is recorded over the vesting period. During the first three and six months ofended June 30, 2010, the Company recorded approximately $0.5 million and $1.0 million of compensation cost for benefits provided under these plans and a corresponding income tax benefit of approximately $0.2 million.million and $0.4 million, respectively. During the first three and six months ofended June 30, 2009, the Company recorded approximately $2.1$2.7 million and $4.8 million of compensation cost for benefits provided under these plans and recognized a corresponding income tax benefit of approximately $0.8 million.$1.0 million and $1.9 million, respectively.

IncrementalThe incremental net shares for the exchange feature of the Notes (see Note 4), were included in the diluted earnings per share calculation for the three months ended March 31, 2010; however, the incremental net shares for the exchange feature of the Notes were not included in the diluted earnings per share calculation for the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2009, as the impact would have been antidilutive.

For the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2010, the Company did not include in the computation of diluted earnings per share approximately 1.1 million and 1.5 million shares, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, the Company did not include in the computation of diluted earnings per share approximately 1.2 million and 5.04.2 million shares, respectively. These shares represent underlying stock options and restricted shares not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because inclusion of such shares would have been antidilutive.

NOTE 11 – LEGAL MATTERS

O’Reilly Litigation

O’Reilly is currently involved in litigation incidental to the ordinary conduct of the Company’s business. Although the Company cannot ascertain the amount of liability that it may incur from any of these matters, it does not currently believe that, in the aggregate, these matters, taking into account applicable insurance and reserves, will have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows in a particular quarter or annual period. In addition, O’Reilly is involved in resolving the governmental investigations that were being conducted against CSK and CSK’s former officers prior to its acquisition by O’Reilly.O’Reilly Automotive, Inc. as described below.

CSK Pre-Acquisition Matters – Governmental Investigations and Actions

As previously reported, the pre-acquisition Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) investigation of CSK, which commenced in 2006, was settled in May 2009 by administrative order without fines, disgorgement or other financial remedies. The Department of Justice (“DOJ”)’s criminal investigation into these same matters as previously disclosed remains ongoing. In addition, the previously reported SEC complaint against four (4)three (3) former employees of CSK for alleged conduct related to CSK’s historical accounting practices remains ongoing. However, the SEC will not amend its pleadings to add the estate of one of the four (4) former employees who died in January, 2010. The action filed by the SEC on July 22, 2009, against Maynard L. Jenkins, the former chief executive officer of CSK seeking reimbursement from Mr. Jenkins of certain bonuses and stock sale profits pursuant to Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as previously reported, also continues. The previously reported DOJ criminal complaint against two (2) ofDon Watson, the former employees of CSK remains ongoing only with regard to CSK’s former Chief Financial Officer due to the death of the other former employee referenced above.CSK, remains ongoing.

With respect to the ongoing DOJ investigation into CSK’s pre-acquisition accounting practices discussedas referenced above, attorneys from the DOJ have indicated that as a result of conduct alleged against the former employees, as set forth in the pleadings in United States vs. Fraser, et. al., U.S.Dist.Ct., Dist. of Ariz.; Case No: 2:09-cr-00372-SRB, the DOJ is considering whether to filebelieves that criminal charges against CSK.are appropriate. O’Reilly is engagedcontinues to cooperate with and engage in ongoing discussions with the DOJ, as previously disclosed, to attempt to resolve the matter.pre-acquisition accounting issues related to CSK arising from the conduct of its former employees as referenced above. O’Reilly cannot predict the ultimate outcome of these discussions at this time. O’Reilly believes that absent an agreed upon resolution, criminal charges against CSK are probable. If charged, O’Reilly intends to vigorously defend against any such charges if filed. The probabilitycharges. Based upon the current status of criminal charges being filed against CSK ordiscussions, O’Reilly has recorded a charge of $15 million in the magnitudesecond quarter of 2010 to increase its accrual for the expected costs to resolve the investigation of CSK, including potential settlement related payments to the DOJ and associated legal costs. However, there can be no assurance that the discussions with the DOJ will result in a resolution of these issues cannot now be reasonably estimated. Accordingly,matters within the accompanying financial statements do not reflect anamount currently accrued liability for this contingency.by O’Reilly. The Company’s total reserve related to the DOJ investigation of CSK was $16.5 million as of June 30, 2010. O’Reilly paid approximately $0.8 million of legal costs related to the DOJ investigation of CSK in the second quarter of 2010.

Several of CSK’s former directors or officers and current or former employees have been or may be interviewed as part of or become the subject of criminal, administrative and civil investigations and lawsuits. As described above, certain former employees of CSK are the subject of civil and criminal litigation commenced by the government. Under Delaware law, the charter documents of the CSK entities and certain indemnification agreements, CSK has certain obligations to indemnify these persons and O’Reilly is currently incurring legal fees on the behalf of these persons in relation to pending matters. Some of these indemnification obligations and other related costs may not be covered by CSK’s insurance policies.

As a result of the CSK acquisition, O’Reilly expects to continue to incur ongoing legal fees related to the ongoing DOJ investigation of CSK and indemnity obligations forrelated to the litigation that has commenced by the DOJ and SEC of CSK’s former employees. O’Reilly has a remaining reserve, with respect to such indemnification obligations, of $20.7$17.8 million at March 31,as of June 30, 2010, which was primarily recorded as an assumed liability in the Company’s allocation of the purchase price of CSK. O’Reilly paid approximately $1.8 million of legal costs related to the government investigations and indemnity obligations in the firstsecond quarter of 2010.

The foregoing governmental investigations and indemnification matters are subject to many uncertainties, and, given their complexity and scope, their final outcome cannot be predicted at this time. It is possible that in a particular quarter or annual period the Company’s results of operations and cash flow could be materially affected by an ultimate unfavorable resolution of such matters, depending, in part, upon the results of operations or cash flow for such period. However, at this time, management believes that the

ultimate outcome of all of such regulatory proceedings and other matters that are pending, after consideration of applicable reserves and potentially available insurance coverage benefits not contemplated in recorded reserves, should not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

NOTE 12 – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

With the exception of thoseany pronouncements stated below, there have been no recent accounting pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements since those discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, that are of material significance, or have potential material significance, to the Company.

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-06,Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements(“ASU 2010-06”). ASU 2010-06 amends Subtopic 820-10, requiring additional disclosures regarding fair value measurements such as transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2, as well as separate disclosures about activity relating to Level 3 measurements. ASU 2010-06 clarifies existing disclosure requirements related to the level of disaggregation and input valuation techniques. The updated guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009, with the exception of the new Level 3 activity disclosures, which are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2010. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The adoption of the new Level 3 guidance is required in 2011 and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In May 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC 855, Subsequent Events (SFAS No. 165), which provides guidance to establish general standards of accounting for and disclosures of events that occur after balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. FASB ASC 855 is effective for interim or fiscal periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 855 beginning with its condensed consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended June 30, 2009. On February 24, 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) number 2010-09 (“ASU 2010-09”), Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements, which iswas effective immediately. The ASU amendsamended FASB ASC 855, to address certain implementation issues related to an entity’s requirement to perform and disclose subsequent events procedures. The amendments that are specifically relevant include the requirement that SEC filers evaluate subsequent events through the date the financial statements are issued, and the exemption of SEC filers from disclosing the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. The Company adopted the provisions of ASU 2010-09 beginning with its condensed consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended March, 31, 2010. The adoption of ASC 855 and ASU 2010-09 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

OVERVIEW

We are one of the largest specialty retailers of automotive aftermarket parts, tools, supplies, equipment and accessories in the United States, selling our products to both do-it-yourself (“DIY”) customers and professional installers. At March 31,June 30, 2010, we operated 3,4693,492 stores in 38 states. The table below depicts our store activity from December 31, 2009, through March 31,June 30, 2010:

Our stores carry an extensive product line, including the products bulleted below:

 

new and remanufactured automotive hard parts, such as alternators, starters, fuel pumps, water pumps, brake system components, batteries, belts, hoses, chassis parts and engine parts;

 

maintenance items, such as oil, antifreeze, fluids, filters, wiper blades, lighting, engine additives and appearance products;

 

accessories, such as floor mats, seat covers and truck accessories; and

 

a complete line of auto body paint and related materials, automotive tools and professional service equipment.

Our strategy continues to be the opening of new stores to achieve greater penetration in existing markets and expansion into new, contiguous markets. We plan to open approximately 150 stores in 2010. We typically open new stores either by (i) constructing a new store at a site we purchase or lease and stocking the new store with fixtures and inventory, (ii) acquiring an independently owned auto parts store, typically by the purchase of substantially all of the inventory and other assets (other than realty) of such store, or (iii) purchasing multi-store chains. We believe that our dual market strategy of targeting both the do-it-yourself retail customer and commercial installer positions the company extremely well to take advantage of growth in the automotive aftermarket business. We believe our investment in store growth will be funded with the cash flows generated by our existing operations and through available borrowings under our existing credit facility.operations.

We believe that the number of U.S. miles driven, number of U.S. registered vehicles, average vehicle age, new light vehicle sales, unperformed maintenance and product quality differentiation are key drivers of current and future demand of products sold within the automotive aftermarket.

Number of miles driven and number of registered vehicles:driven:

Total miles driven in the U.S., along with changes in the average age of vehicles on the road, heavily influencesinfluence the demand for the repair and maintenance products we sell. TheHistorically, the long-term trend in the number of vehicles on the road and the total miles driven in the U.S. has exhibited steady growth oversteadily increased. According to the past decade. BetweenDepartment of Transportation, between 1999 and 2007, the total number of miles driven in the United StatesU.S. increased at an average annual rate of approximately 1.6%. AccordingIn 2008, however, difficult macroeconomic conditions and record high gas prices during the first half of the year lead to a decrease in the Department of Transportation, estimated total number of miles driven increased by 0.2%and in 2009, and has decreased by 2.3% throughmiles driven remained relatively flat. During the first twofive months of 2010. The2010, miles driven declined slightly, which we believe was a result of increasing gas prices and difficult winter weather conditions at the start of the year. As the U.S. economy recovers, we believe that annual miles driven will return to historical growth rates and continue to increase the demand for our products.

New light vehicle sales:

Along with the flat to slight decrease in the number of miles driven thus far in 2010 as compared to 2009 is due to higher fuel costs compared to those in 2009, withsince 2008, the overall decrease in miles driven in recent years being a result of challenging macroeconomic conditions. The total number of registered vehicles on the road increased from 201 million light vehicles in 1999 to 242 million in 2008. We believe that the decrease in miles driven in the first two months of 2010 is a short-term trend, and that miles driven will increase in the future because of the increasing number of vehicles on the road.

Average vehicle age:

Changes in the average age of vehicles on the road impacts demand for automotive aftermarket products. As the average age of a vehicle increases, the vehicle goes through more routine maintenance cycles requiring replacement parts such as brakes, belts, hoses, batteries and filters.purchases has also declined. The sales of these products are a key component of our business. As reported by the Automotive Aftermarket Industry Association (“AAIA”) estimates that new car sales in the U.S. decreased 4.7% between 1999 and 2007 for the light vehicle market; however sales for the same market decreased by 18.5% in 2008 and 21.2% in 2009, due to the difficult macroeconomic conditions during these periods. We believe that consumers will continue to defer the purchase of new vehicles and choose to keep their vehicles longer and drive them at higher miles, continuing the trend of an aging vehicle population.

Average vehicle age of registered vehicles:

As reported by the AAIA, the average age of the United StatesU.S. vehicle population has increased over the past decade from 9.1 years for passenger cars and 8.5 years for light trucks in 1999 to 10.6 and 9.39.6 years respectively, in 2008. Based on estimates provided by2009, respectively. We believe this increase in average age can be attributed to better engineered and built vehicles, which can be reliably driven at higher miles due to better quality power trains, and interiors and exteriors, the AAIA,decrease in new car sales decreased 4.7% between 1999over the past two years and 2007 for the light vehicle market; however, sales forconsumers’ willingness to invest in maintaining their higher-mileage, better built vehicles. As the same market decreased 18.5% in 2008. In lightaverage age of the dramatic decrease invehicle on the saleroad increases, a larger percentage of new carsmiles are being driven by vehicles which are outside of manufacture warranty. These out-of-warranty, older vehicles generate strong demand for our products as they go through more routine maintenance cycles, have more frequent mechanical failures which require replacement parts such as brakes, belts, hoses, batteries and light trucks in 2008, we expect that consumers will continue to choose to keep theirfilters and generally require more maintenance then newer vehicles longer and drive them at higher mileages and that this increasing trend in average vehicle age will continue.would require.

Unperformed maintenance:

According to estimates compiled by the AAIA,Automotive Aftermarket Suppliers Association, the annual amount of unperformed or underperformed maintenance in the United StatesU.S. totaled $50 billion for 2008. This metric represents the degree to which routine vehicle maintenance recommended by the manufacturer is not being performed. Consumer decisions to avoid or defer maintenance affect demand for our products and the total amount of unperformed maintenance represents potential future demand. We believe that challenging macroeconomic conditions in 2008, continuing into 2009 and 2010, contributed to the amount of unperformed maintenance; however, with the reduced number of new car sales, we believe the amount of underperformed maintenance is decreasing as people place a higher focus on maintaining their current vehicle with the expectation of keeping the vehicle longer than they would have in a better macroeconomic environment.

Product quality differentiation:

We provide our customers with an assortment of products that are differentiated by quality and price for most of the product lines we offer. For many of our product offerings, this quality differentiation reflects “good”, “better”, and “best” alternatives. Our sales and total gross margin dollars are highest for the “best” quality category of products. Consumers’ willingness to select products at a higher point on the value spectrum is a driver of sales and profitability in our industry. We believe that the average consumer’s tendency has been to “trade-down” to lower quality products during the recent challenging economicmacroeconomic conditions. We have ongoing initiatives targeted to marketing higher quality products to our customers and expect our customers to be more willing to return to purchasing up on the value spectrum in the future.future as the U.S. economy recovers.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Sales increased $116$130 million, or 10% from $1.16$1.25 billion in the firstsecond quarter of 2009, to $1.28$1.38 billion in the firstsecond quarter of 2010. Sales for the first six months of 2010 were $2.66 billion, an increase of $246 million or 10% over sales for the first six months of 2009.

Consolidated comparable store sales for stores open at least one year increased 4.8% and 5.2% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectfully. Comparable store sales are calculated based on the change in sales of stores open at least one year and exclude sales of specialty machinery, sales to independent parts stores, sales to team members and sales during the one to two week period certain CSK branded stores were closed for conversion.

We believe that the increasedincrease in sales achieved by our stores are the result of superior inventory availability, a broader selection of products offered in most stores, a targeted promotional and advertising effort through a variety of media and localized promotional events, continued improvement in the merchandising and store layouts of most stores, compensation programs for all store team members that provide incentives for performance and our continued focus on serving professional installers. The improvement in comparable store sales was primarily driven equally by an increase inincreased transaction counts withand a smaller positive impact from higher average ticket value. The increaseimprovement in average ticket value was attributable to more complex and costly repair parts, consistent with ongoing industry trends. is primarily the result of a larger percentage of sales derived from the higher priced hard part categories.

The increase in gross profit as a percentage of sales was the result of decreased inventory shrinkage at converted CSK stores, improved product mix and lower product acquisition cost,costs, partially offset by the impact of increased commercial sales (which typically have lower grossand reduced leverage on distribution center costs. The decrease in shrinkage at converted CSK stores is the result of the more robust O’Reilly point of sale system (“POS”) which is installed in the CSK stores as they convert to the O’Reilly distribution systems. The O’Reilly POS provides managers with better tools to track and control inventory resulting in improved shrinkage. The improvement in product mix is primarily driven by increased sales in the hard part categories which generate a higher margin percentages than other categories. Increasing hard part sales to DIY customers). Productare the result of the enhanced and more comprehensive inventory levels in the hard part categories in the CSK stores, including the O’Reilly private label products, supported by a more extensive and robust distribution network. Lower product acquisition costs improved primarilyare derived from improved negotiating leverage with our vendors as athe result of large purchase volume increases driven byassociated with the CSK acquisition. Foracquisition of CSK. During the second quarter of 2010, we saw the anniversary of the final material vendor contracts which were renegotiated during the second quarter of 2009; as a result, for the remainder of 2010, we would anticipate gross margin percentage results to be more comparable to the same periods in 2009 primarily because the majority of the vendor agreements which were renegotiated to include the increased volume from the CSK acquisition were completed around the beginning of the second quarter of 2009 and the corresponding acquisition cost improvements were reflected in the last three quarters of 2009. We expect to see some pressure on gross margin percentages in 2010 to the extent that commercialCommercial sales which carryare growing at a lower gross margin percentage, grow faster rate than DIY sales as a result of the execution of ourthe CSK integration plan. These commercial sales, which typically carry a lower gross margin percentage than DIY sales, have created pressure on our gross margin percentages and we would expect to continue to see pressure on gross margin as a percentage of sales in the second half of 2010 as commercial sales are expected to grow at a faster rate than DIY sales. The reduced leverage on distribution center costs is the result of the additional distribution centers which have been opened in conjunction with the CSK integration plan. New distribution center team members are not fully proficient with distribution operations resulting in inefficiencies.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) increased $20.6$22 million, or 5%, from $429.3$454 million (or 36.9%36.3% of sales) in the firstsecond quarter of 2009 to $449.9$476 million (or 35.1%34.5% of sales) in the firstsecond quarter of 2010. SG&A increased $43 million, or 5%, from $883 million (or 36.6% of sales) for the six months ended June 30, 2009, to $926 million (or 34.8% of sales) for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The decrease in SG&A as a percentage of sales was attributable to increased leverage of store expenses on higher comparable store sales levels and continued reduction in duplicative administrative corporate overhead from the integrationtiming of CSK.advertising program spending, partially offset by higher than anticipated medical benefits for our team members. The increase in total SG&A dollars is primarily a result of additional employees and facilities driven by our increased store count.

The $15 million charge to operating income in the second quarter of 2010 is related to the ongoing, legacy DOJ investigation of CSK (See Note 11 – Legal Matters to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). As previously announced, prior to the acquisition of CSK by O’Reilly in July of 2008, the DOJ began an investigation of CSK related to CSK’s historical accounting practices. The charge represents an increase in the accrual for the estimated costs to resolve the DOJ investigation, including potential settlement-related payments to the DOJ, future costs of cooperation with the DOJ and associated legal and documentation costs. While the $15 million charge in the second quarter of 2010 is management’s best estimate of the costs to resolve these matters, there can be no assurance that the discussions with the DOJ will result in a resolution to these matters within the amount accrued.

As a result of the additionimpacts discussed above, operating income for the second quarter of employees and facilities2010 increased $31 million from $150 million (or 12.0% of sales) in 2009 to support$181 million (or 13.1% of sales) in 2010, representing an increase of 21%. Operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2010, increased store count.$87 million from $263 million (or 10.9% of sales) in 2009 to $350 million (or 13.1% of sales) in 2010, representing an increase of 33%.

Interest expense was flat at $11 million (or 0.9% of sales) during the second quarter of 2009 and $11 million (or 0.8% of sales) in the second quarter of 2010. Interest expense decreased $1.2$1 million, from $12.1$23 million (or 1.0% of sales) during the first quarter ofsix months ended June 30, 2009, to $10.9$22 million (or 0.8% of sales) during the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase in interest expense for second quarter of 2010 is primarily due to less capitalized interest in the first quartercurrent period related to purchases of 2010.property and equipment as compared to the same period one year ago, offset by a decreased level of outstanding borrowings under our credit facility. The decrease in interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2010, is primarily due to a decreased level of outstanding borrowings under our credit facility in the result of lower average interest rates.current period as compared to the same period one year ago.

Our provision for income taxes increased $21.7$18 million to $61$72 million for the firstsecond quarter of 2010 compared to $39.4$54 million for the same period in 20092009. Our provision for income taxes increased $40 million to $133 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010, compared to $93 million for the same period in 2009. The increase in our provision is primarily due to the increase in taxable income. Our effective tax rate was 38.5%41.9% of income before income taxes for the firstsecond quarter of 2010 andversus 38.7% for the same period in 2009. Our effective tax rate was 40.3% of income before income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2010, versus 38.6% for the same period in 2009. The increase in the effective tax rate is primarily the result of the charge of $15 million in the second quarter of 2010 related to the CSK DOJ investigation which is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

As a result of the impacts discussed above, net income for the firstsecond quarter of 2010 increased $34.6$14 million from $62.8$86 million (or 6.8% of sales) in 2009 (5.4%to $100 million (or 7.2% of sales) to $97.5 million in 2010, (7.6%representing an increase of 16%. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2010, increased $49 million from $148 million (or 6.1% of sales) in 2009 to $197 million (or 7.4% of sales) in 2010, representing an increase of 33%.

Our diluted earnings per common share for the firstsecond quarter of 2010 increased 52%15% to $0.70$0.71 on 139.6141.1 million shares compared to $0.46$0.62 for the firstsecond quarter of 2009 on 136.2137.5 million shares. Diluted earnings per common share for the six months ended June 30, 2010, increased 30% to $1.40 on 140.4 million shares compared to $1.08 for the same period in 2009 on 136.8 million shares. Our second quarter and year-to-date results include a charge related to the ongoing, legacy DOJ investigation of CSK as discussed above. Adjusted operating income, excluding the impact of the charge related to the DOJ investigation of CSK discussed above, increased 31% to $196 million (or 14.2% of sales) during the second quarter ended June 30, 2010, from $150 million (or 12.0% of sales) for the same period a year ago. Adjusted operating income, excluding the impact of the charge related to the DOJ investigation of CSK discussed above, increased 39% to $365 million (or 13.7% of sales) for the first six months of 2010, from $263 million (or 10.9% of sales) for the same period a year ago. Adjusted diluted earnings per common share, excluding the impact of the charge related to the DOJ investigation of CSK discussed above, increased 31% to $0.81 for the second quarter ended June 30, 2010, from $0.62 for the same period one year ago. Adjusted diluted earnings per common share, excluding the impact of the charge related to the DOJ investigation of CSK discussed above, increased 40% to $1.51 for the first six months of 2010, from $1.08 for the same period one year ago.

The adjustments to operating income, net income and earnings per share in the above paragraph and table present certain financial information not derived in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). We do not, nor do we suggest investors should, consider such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, GAAP financial information. We believe that the presentation of adjusted operating income, net income and earnings per share excluding the impact of the charge related to the DOJ investigation of CSK provides meaningful supplemental information to both management and investors that is indicative of the Company’s core operations. Management excludes this item in judging our performance and believes this non-GAAP information is useful to understanding the recurring factors and trends affecting our business. Material limitations of these non-GAAP measures are that such measures do not reflect actual GAAP amounts and, although the charge in the second quarter is management’s reasonable estimate of the costs to resolve the DOJ investigation of CSK, the ultimate resolution of the matter may result in future charges. We compensate for such limitations by presenting, in the table above, the accompanying reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.

LIQUIDITY

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities increased from $86.6$153 million for the first quartersix months of 2009 to $170.6$356 million for the first quartersix months of 2010. ThisThe increase in cash provided by operating activities is primarily due to an increase in net income adjusted(adjusted for the effect of non-cash depreciation and amortization charges, stock compensation charges and deferred income taxes,taxes), and a lower level of investmentsignificant decrease in net inventory investment as compared to the first quarter ofsame period in 2009. Net inventory investment reflects our investment in inventory net of the amount of accounts payable to vendors.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities decreased from $150.6$231 million during the first quartersix months of 2009 to $90.3$181 million for the comparable quarterperiod in 2010,2010. The decrease in cash provided by investing activities is primarily due to a decrease in capital expenditures in association with the integration of CSK compared to the first quarter ofsame period in 2009. Capital expenditures related to the acquisition of CSK include the purchase of properties for future distribution centers and costs associated with the conversion of CSK stores to the O’Reilly brand.Brand. A larger portion of the capital expenditures related to distribution system expansion occurred in first six months of 2009, as we acquired property and began construction on four new distribution centers, versus the same period in 2010.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $77.5$171 million in the first quartersix months of 2010, compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $70.1$88 million during the first quarter ofsame period in 2009. The decrease in cash provided by financing activities is driven by the increase inrepayments of outstanding borrowings on our Credit Facility, which were funded by increased cash provided by operating activities and decreased capital expenditures compared to the decrease in cash used in investing activities resulting in a reduced needsame period last year. For the remainder of 2010, we expect to finance operations with borrowings under our Credit Facility. As the year progresses, our focus will be concentrated on usinguse available cash on hand which is expected to be provided by operating activities and a decreasing level of capital expenditures as we complete the CSK integration, to continue to reduce the outstanding borrowings underon our Credit Facility. Accordingly, we would expect to continue to see cash to be used by financing activities for the remainder of the year.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

On July 11, 2008, in connection with the acquisition of CSK, Auto Corporation (“CSK”), we entered into a credit agreement for a five-year $1.2 billion asset-based revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) arranged by BA, which we used to refinance debt, fund the cash portionBank of the acquisition, pay for other transaction-related expenses and provide liquidity for the combined Company going forward.America, N.A. (“BA”). The Credit Facility is comprised of a five-year $1.075 billion tranche A revolving credit facility and a five-year $125 million first-in-last-out revolving credit facility (FILO tranche), both of which mature on July 10, 2013. As of March 31,June 30, 2010, the amount of the borrowing base available under the Credit Facility was $1.197 billion, of which we had outstanding borrowings of $593.2$477 million. As of December 31, 2009, the amount of the borrowing base available under the credit facility was $1.196 billion, of which we had outstanding borrowings of $679 million. The available borrowings under the Credit Facility are also reduced by stand-by letters of credit issued by us primarily to satisfy the requirements of workers compensation, general liability and other insurance policies. As of March 31,June 30, 2010, we had stand-by letters of credit outstanding in the amount of $72.2$73 million and the aggregate availability for additional borrowings under the Credit Facility was $531.2$647 million. As of December 31, 2009, we had stand-by letters of credit outstanding in the amount of $72 million and the aggregate availability for additional borrowings under the credit facility was $445 million. As part of the Credit Facility, we have pledged substantially all of our assets as collateral and we are subject to an ongoing consolidated leverage ratio covenant, with which we complied on March 31,June 30, 2010.

Borrowings under the tranche A revolver bear interest, at our option, at a rate equal to either a base rate plus 1.25% per annum or LIBOR plus 2.25% per annum, with each rate being subject to adjustment based upon certain excess availability thresholds. Borrowings under the FILO tranche bear interest, at our option, at a rate equal to either a base rate plus 2.50% per annum or LIBOR plus 3.50% per annum, with each rate being subject to adjustment based upon certain excess availability thresholds. The base rate is equal to the higher of the prime lending rate established by BA from time to time or the federal funds effective rate as in effect from time to time plus 0.50%. Fees related to unused capacity under the Credit Facility are assessed at a rate of 0.375%0.50% of the remaining available borrowings under the facility, subject to adjustment based upon remaining unused capacity. In addition, we pay customary letter of credit fees and other administrative fees in respect ofto the Credit Facility.

On July 24, 2008, October 14, 2008, and January 21, 2010, we entered into interest rate swap transactions with BBT,Branch Banking and Trust Company (“BBT”), BA, SunTrust Bank (“SunTrust”) and/or Barclays.Barclays Capital (“Barclays”). We entered into these interest rate swap transactions to mitigate the risk associated with our floating interest rate based on LIBOR on an aggregate of $450 million of our debt that is outstanding under our Credit Facility. We are required to make certain monthly fixed rate payments calculated on the notional amounts, while the applicable counter partycounterparty is obligated to make certain monthly floating rate payments to us referencing the same notional amount. The interest rate swap transactions effectively fix the annual interest rate payable on these notional amounts of our debt. The interest rate swap transactions have maturity dates ranging from August 1, 2010, through October 17, 2011.

On July 11, 2008, we agreed to become a guarantor, on a subordinated basis, of the $100 million principal amount of 6 3/4% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2025 (the “Notes”) originally issued by CSK. The Notes are exchangeable, under certain circumstances, into cash and shares of our common stock. The Notes bear interest at 6.75% per year until December 15, 2010, and 6.50% until maturity on December 15, 2025. Prior to their stated maturity, the Notes are exchangeable by the holders only under the following circumstances (as more fully described in the indenture under which the Notes were issued):

 

during any fiscal quarter (and only during that fiscal quarter) commencing after July 11, 2008, if the last reported sale price of our common stock is greater than or equal to 130% of the applicable exchange price of $36.17 for at least 20 trading days in the period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the preceding fiscal quarter;

 

if we have called the Notes for redemption; or

 

upon the occurrence of specified corporate transactions, such as a change in control.

Upon exchangeAs of July 1, 2010, the Notes became exchangeable at the option of the holders and will remain exchangeable through September 30, 2010, the last trading day of our third quarter, as provided for in the Indenture governing the Notes. The Notes became exchangeable as our common stock closed at or above 130% of the Exchange Price (as defined in the Indenture governing the Notes) for 20 trading days within the 30 consecutive trading day period ending on June 30, 2010. As a result, during the exchange period commencing July 1, 2010, and continuing through and including September 30, 2010, for each $1,000 principal amount of the Notes held, holders of the Notes may, if they elect, surrender their Notes for exchange. If the Notes are exchanged, we will deliver cash equal to the lesser of the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be exchanged and our total exchange obligation and, in the event our total exchange obligation exceeds the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be exchanged, shares of our common stock in respect of that excess. The total exchange obligation reflects the exchange rate whereby each $1,000 in principal amount of the Notes is exchangeable into an equivalent value of 25.97 shares of our common stock and $60.61 in cash. Incremental net shares forThe Notes currently have the Notes exchange feature were included in the diluted earnings per share calculation forentire $100 million principal amount outstanding.

During the three and six months ended March 31, 2010; however, the incremental net shares for the Notes exchange feature were not included in the diluted earnings per share calculation for the three months ended March 31, 2009, as the impact would have been antidilutive.

The noteholders may require us to repurchase some or all of the Notes for cash at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being repurchased, plus any accrued and unpaid interest on December 15, 2010; December 15, 2015; or December 15, 2020, or on any date following a fundamental change as described in the indenture. We may redeem some or all of the Notes for cash at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount plus any accrued and unpaid interest on or after December 15, 2010, upon at least 35-calendar days notice. We intend to redeem the Notes in December 2010, and plan to fund the redemption with available borrowings under our Credit Facility.

During the first quarter ofJune 30, 2010, we opened 4924 and 73 new stores.stores, respectively. We plan to open approximately 10179 additional stores during the remainder of 2010. The funds required for such planned expansions are expected to be provided by cash generated from operating activities.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

At March 31,June 30, 2010, we had long-term debt with maturities of less than one year of $105.8$105 million and long-term debt with maturities over one year of $596.7$479 million, representing a total decrease in all outstanding debt of $88.2$207 million from December 31, 2009.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The preparation of our financial statements in accordance with accounting policies generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires the application of certain estimates and judgments by management. Management bases its assumptions, estimates, and adjustments on historical experience, current trends and other factors believed to be relevant at the time the consolidated financial statements are prepared. There have been no material changes in the critical accounting policies and estimates discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

INFLATION AND SEASONALITY

We have been successful, in many cases, in reducing the effects of merchandise cost increases principally by taking advantage of vendor incentive programs, economies of scale resulting from increased volume of purchases and selective forward buying. To the extent our acquisition cost increased due to base commodity price increases industry-wide, we have typically been able to pass along these increased costs through higher retail prices for the affected products. As a result, we do not believe our operations have been materially, adversely affected by inflation.

To some extent, our business is seasonal primarily as a result of the impact of weather conditions on customer buying patterns. Store sales and profits have historically been higher in the second and third quarters (April through September) than in the first and fourth quarters (October through March) of the year.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

With the exception of thoseany pronouncements stated below, there have been no recent accounting pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements since those discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, that are of material significance, or have potential material significance, to the Company.

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-06,Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements(“ASU 2010-06”). ASU 2010-06 amends Subtopic 820-10, requiring additional disclosures regarding fair value measurements such as transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2, as well as separate disclosures about activity relating to Level 3 measurements. ASU 2010-06 clarifies existing disclosure requirements related to the level of disaggregation and input valuation techniques. The updated guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009, with the exception of the new Level 3 activity disclosures, which are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2010. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The adoption of the new Level 3 guidance is required in 2011 and is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In May 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC 855, Subsequent Events (SFAS No. 165), which provides guidance to establish general standards of accounting for and disclosures of events that occur after balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. FASB ASC 855 is effective for interim or fiscal periods ending after June 15, 2009. We adopted the provisions of ASC 855 beginning with our condensed consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended June 30, 2009. On February 24, 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) number 2010-09 (“ASU 2010-09”), Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements, which iswas effective immediately. The ASU amendsamended FASB ASC 855, to address certain implementation issues related to an entity’s requirement to perform and disclose

subsequent events procedures. The amendments that are specifically relevant include the requirement that SEC filers evaluate subsequent events through the date the financial statements are issued, and the exemption of SEC filers from disclosing the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. We adopted the provisions of ASU 2010-09 beginning with our condensed consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended March, 31, 2010. The adoption of ASC 855 and ASU 2010-09 did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations andor cash flows.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are subject to interest rate risk to the extent we borrow against our credit facilities with variable interest rates. We have interest rate exposure with respect to the $593$477.3 million outstanding balance on our variable interest rate debt at March 31,June 30, 2010; however, from time to time, we have entered into interest rate swaps to reduce this exposure. On July 24, 2008, October 14, 2008, and January 21, 2010, we reduced our exposure to changes in interest rates by entering into interest rate swap contracts (“the swaps”) with a total notional amount of $450 million. The swaps represent contracts to exchange a floating rate for fixed interest payments periodically over the life of the swap agreement without exchange of the underlying notional amount. The notional amount of the swap is used to measure interest to be paid or received and does not represent the amount of exposure to credit loss. The swaps have been designated as cash flow hedges. If interest rates increased or decreased by 100 basis points, annualized interest expense and cash payments for interest would increase or decrease by approximately $1.4$0.3 million ($0.80.2 million after tax), based on our exposure to interest rate changes on variable rate debt that is not covered by the swaps. This analysis does not consider the effects of the change in the level of overall economic activity that could exist in an environment of adversely changing interest rates. In the event of an adverse change in interest rates and to the extent that we have amounts outstanding under our asset-based credit facility, management would likely take further actions that would seek to mitigate our exposure to interest rate risk.

 

Item 4.Controls and Procedures

EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of the end of the period covered by this report, our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report are functioning effectively to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us (including our consolidated subsidiaries) in reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROLS

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ending March 31,June 30, 2010, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1.Legal Proceedings

O’Reilly Litigation

O’Reilly is currently involved in litigation incidental to the ordinary conduct of the Company’s business. Although the Company cannot ascertain the amount of liability that it may incur from any of these matters, it does not currently believe that, in the aggregate, these matters, taking into account applicable insurance and reserves, will have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows in a particular quarter or annual period. In addition, O’Reilly is involved in resolving the governmental investigations that were being conducted against CSK and CSK’s former officers prior to its acquisition by O’Reilly.O’Reilly Automotive, Inc. as described below.

CSK Pre-Acquisition Matters – Governmental Investigations and Actions

As previously reported, the pre-acquisition Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) investigation of CSK, which commenced in 2006, was settled in May 2009 by administrative order without fines, disgorgement or other financial remedies. The Department of Justice (“DOJ”)’s criminal investigation into these same matters as previously disclosed remains ongoing. In addition, the previously reported SEC complaint against four (4)three (3) former employees of CSK for alleged conduct related to CSK’s historical accounting practices remains ongoing. However, the SEC will not amend its pleadings to add the estate of one of the four (4) former employees who died in January, 2010. The action filed by the SEC on July 22, 2009, against Maynard L. Jenkins, the former chief executive officer of CSK seeking reimbursement from Mr. Jenkins of certain bonuses and stock sale profits pursuant to Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as previously reported, also continues. The previously reported DOJ criminal complaint against two (2) ofDon Watson, the former employees of CSK remains ongoing only with regard to CSK’s former Chief Financial Officer due to the death of the other former employee referenced above.CSK, remains ongoing.

With respect to the ongoing DOJ investigation into CSK’s pre-acquisition accounting practices discussedas referenced above, attorneys from the DOJ have indicated that as a result of conduct alleged against the former employees, as set forth in the pleadings in United States vs. Fraser, et. al., U.S.Dist.Ct., Dist. of Ariz.; Case No: 2:09-cr-00372-SRB, the DOJ is considering whether to filebelieves that criminal charges against CSK.are appropriate. O’Reilly is engagedcontinues to cooperate with and engage in ongoing discussions with the DOJ, as previously disclosed, to attempt to resolve the matter.pre-acquisition accounting issues related to CSK arising from the conduct of its former employees as referenced above. O’Reilly cannot predict the ultimate outcome of these discussions at this time. O’Reilly believes that absent an agreed upon resolution, criminal charges against CSK are probable. If charged, O’Reilly intends to vigorously defend against any such charges if filed. The probabilitycharges. Based upon the current status of criminal charges being filed against CSK ordiscussions, O’Reilly has recorded a charge of $15 million in the magnitudesecond quarter of 2010 to increase its accrual for the expected costs to resolve the investigation of CSK, including potential settlement related payments to the DOJ and associated legal costs. However, there can be no assurance that the discussions with the DOJ will result in a resolution of these issues cannot now be reasonably estimated. Accordingly,matters within the accompanying financial statements do not reflect anamount currently accrued liability for this contingency.by O’Reilly. The Company’s total reserve related to the DOJ investigation of CSK was $16.5 million as of June 30, 2010. O’Reilly paid approximately $0.8 million of legal costs related to the DOJ investigation of CSK in the second quarter of 2010.

Several of CSK’s former directors or officers and current or former employees have been or may be interviewed as part of or become the subject of criminal, administrative and civil investigations and lawsuits. As described above, certain former employees of CSK are the subject of civil and criminal litigation commenced by the government. Under Delaware law, the charter documents of the CSK entities and certain indemnification agreements, CSK has certain obligations to indemnify these persons and O’Reilly is currently incurring legal fees on the behalf of these persons in relation to pending matters. Some of these indemnification obligations and other related costs may not be covered by CSK’s insurance policies.

As a result of the CSK acquisition, O’Reilly expects to continue to incur ongoing legal fees related to the ongoing DOJ investigation of CSK and indemnity obligations forrelated to the litigation that has commenced by the DOJ and SEC of CSK’s former employees. O’Reilly has a remaining reserve, with respect to such indemnification obligations, of $20.7$17.8 million at March 31,as of June 30, 2010, which was primarily recorded as an assumed liability in the Company’s allocation of the purchase price of CSK. O’Reilly paid approximately $1.8 million of legal costs related to the government investigations and indemnity obligations in the firstsecond quarter of 2010.

The foregoing governmental investigations and indemnification matters are subject to many uncertainties, and, given their complexity and scope, their final outcome cannot be predicted at this time. It is possible that in a particular quarter or annual period the Company’s results of operations and cash flow could be materially affected by an ultimate unfavorable resolution of such matters, depending, in part, upon the results of operations or cash flow for such period. However, at this time, management believes that the ultimate outcome of all of such regulatory proceedings and other matters that are pending, after consideration of applicable reserves and potentially available insurance coverage benefits not contemplated in recorded reserves, should not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
