Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | |
Summary of significant accounting policies | NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Nature of business: O’Reilly Automotive, Inc. and Subsidiaries, collectively, “O’Reilly” or the “Company,” is a specialty retailer and supplier of automotive aftermarket parts. The Company’s stores carry an extensive product line, including new and remanufactured automotive hard parts, maintenance items and various automotive accessories. As of December 31, 2022, the Company owned and operated 5,929 stores in 47 U.S. states and 42 stores in Mexico, servicing both do-it-yourself (“DIY”) and the professional service provider customers. The Company’s robust distribution system provides stores with same-day or overnight access to an extensive inventory of hard-to-find items not typically stocked in the stores of other auto parts retailers. Segment reporting: The Company is managed and operated by a single single Principles of consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Use of estimates: The preparation of the consolidated financial statements, in conformity with United States (“U.S.”) generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. Cash equivalents: Cash equivalents include investments with maturities of 90 days or less on the date of purchase. Foreign Currency: The Company accounts for its Mexican operations using the local market currency, the Mexican peso, and converts its financial statements compiled for these operations from the Mexican peso to U.S. dollars. The cumulative gain or loss on currency translation is included as a component of “Accumulated other comprehensive income” on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. See Note 10 for further information concerning the Company’s accumulated other comprehensive income. Accounts receivable: The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of the Company’s customers to make required payments. The Company considers the following factors when determining if collection is reasonably assured: customer creditworthiness, past transaction history with the customer, current expectations of future economic and industry trends, changes in customer payment terms and management’s expectations. Allowances for doubtful accounts are determined based on historical experience and an evaluation of the current composition of accounts receivable. The Company grants credit to certain professional service provider and jobber customers who meet the Company’s pre-established credit requirements. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to these receivables are limited because the Company’s customer base consists of a large number of relatively small customers, spreading the credit risk across a broad base regarded as a single class of financing receivable by the Company. The Company also controls this credit risk through credit approvals, credit limits and accounts receivable and credit monitoring procedures. Generally, the Company does not require security when credit is granted to customers. Credit is granted to customers on a short-term basis, consisting primarily of daily, weekly or monthly accounts. Credit losses are provided for in the Company’s consolidated financial statements and have consistently been within management’s expectations. Management does not believe there is a reasonable likelihood that the Company will be unable to collect the aggregate amounts receivable from suppliers, and the Company did not record a reserve for uncollectable amounts from suppliers in the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. Amounts due to the Company from its Team Members are included in “Accounts receivable” on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. These amounts consist primarily of purchases of merchandise on Team Member accounts. Accounts receivable due from Team Members was approximately $0.8 million and $0.7 million as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Amounts receivable from suppliers: The Company receives concessions from its suppliers through a variety of programs and arrangements, including allowances for new stores and warranties, volume purchase rebates and co-operative advertising. Co-operative advertising allowances that are incremental to the Company’s advertising program, specific to a product or event and identifiable for accounting purposes are reported as a reduction of advertising expense in the period in which the advertising occurred. All other supplier concessions are recognized as a reduction to the cost of sales. Amounts receivable from suppliers also include amounts due to the Company for changeover merchandise and product returns. The Company regularly reviews supplier receivables for collectability and assesses the need for a reserve for uncollectable amounts based on an evaluation of the Company’s suppliers’ financial positions and corresponding abilities to meet financial obligations. Management does not believe there is a reasonable likelihood that the Company will be unable to collect the amounts receivable from suppliers and the Company did not record a reserve for uncollectable amounts from suppliers in the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2022 or 2021. Inventory: Inventory, which consists of automotive hard parts, maintenance items, accessories and tools, is stated at the lower of cost or market. Inventory also includes capitalized costs related to procurement, warehousing and distribution centers (“DCs”). Cost has been determined using the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) method, which more accurately matches costs with related revenues. The replacement cost of inventory was $4.70 billion and $3.92 billion as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Fair value of financial instruments: 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 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement). The Company uses the income and market approaches to determine the fair value of its assets and liabilities. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are set forth below: ● Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity can access at the measurement date. ● Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. ● Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. See Note 2 for further information concerning the Company’s financial and non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis. Property and equipment: Property and equipment are carried at cost. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method, generally over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the lease term or the estimated economic life of the assets. The lease term includes renewal options determined by management at lease inception, for which failure to execute renewal options would result in a substantial economic penalty to the Company. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Upon retirement or sale, the cost and accumulated depreciation are eliminated and the gain or loss, if any, is recognized in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable. See Note 4 for further information concerning the Company’s property and equipment. Goodwill and other intangibles: The accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 2022 and 2021, include goodwill and other intangible assets recorded as the result of acquisitions. The Company operates a single reporting unit and evaluates goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles for impairment annually during the fourth quarter, or when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of these assets might exceed their current fair values. The goodwill impairment test includes an optional qualitative assessment. The Company’s qualitative assessment found no evidence to suggest it is more likely than not that its fair value is less than its carrying amount, including goodwill, as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. As such, no goodwill impairment adjustment was required as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. Finite-lived intangibles are carried at amortized cost and amortization is calculated using the straight-line method, generally over the estimated useful lives of the intangibles. See Note 6 for further information concerning the Company’s goodwill and other intangibles. Leases: The Company leases certain office space, retail stores, distribution centers and equipment under long-term, non-cancelable operating leases. The Company does not separate non-lease components from lease components for any current lease contracts. Leases generally include renewal options and some include options to purchase, provisions for percentage rent based on sales and/or incremental step increase provisions. The exercise of renewal options is typically at the Company’s sole discretion and all operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. The Company rents or subleases certain surplus real estate to third parties. Right-of-use assets and corresponding operating lease liabilities are recognized for all leases with an initial term greater than 12 months. See Note 5 for further information concerning the Company’s operating leases. Impairment of long-lived assets: The Company reviews its long-lived assets, including its right-of-use assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. When such an event occurs, the Company compares the sum of the undiscounted expected future cash flows of the asset (asset group) with the carrying amounts of the asset. If the undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than the carrying value of the assets, the Company measures the amount of impairment loss as the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. The Company has not historically recorded any material impairment charges to its long-lived assets. See Note 4 for further information concerning the Company’s impairment of long-lived assets activities. Valuation of investments: The Company has an unsecured obligation to pay, in the future, the value of deferred compensation and a Company match relating to employee participation in the Company’s nonqualified deferred compensation plan (the “Deferred Compensation Plan”). The future obligation is adjusted to reflect the performance, whether positive or negative, of selected investment measurement options, chosen by each participant. The Company invests in various marketable securities with the intention of selling these securities to fulfill its future obligations under the Deferred Compensation Plan. The investments in this plan were stated at fair value based on quoted market prices, were accounted for as trading securities and were included in “Other assets, net” on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. See Note 2 for further information concerning the fair value measurements of the Company’s marketable securities. See Note 12 for further information concerning the Company’s benefit plans. Variable Interest Entities: The Company invests in certain tax credit funds that promote renewable energy. These investments generate a return primarily through the realization of federal tax credits and other tax benefits. The Company accounts for the tax attributes of its renewable energy investments using the deferral method. Under this method, realized investment tax credits and other tax benefits are recognized as a reduction of the renewable energy investments. The Company has determined its investment in these tax credit funds were investments in variable interest entities (“VIEs”). The Company analyzes any investments in VIEs at inception and again if certain triggering events are identified to determine if it is the primary beneficiary. The Company considers a variety of factors in identifying the entity that holds the power to direct matters that most significantly impact the VIEs’ economic performance including, but not limited to, the ability to direct financing, leasing, construction and other operating decisions and activities. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had invested in six unconsolidated tax credit fund entities that were considered to be VIEs and concluded it was not the primary beneficiary of any of the entities, as it did not have the power to control the activities that most significantly impact the entities, and has therefore accounted for these investments using the equity method. The Company’s maximum exposure to losses associated with these VIEs is generally limited to its net investment, which was $38.0 million as of December 31, 2022, and was included in “Other assets, net” on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, the Company recognized investment tax credits in the amounts of $167.6 million, $177.1 million and $170.5 million, respectively, all of which were realized through reductions in cash income taxes paid and were reflected as a component of the change in Income taxes payable on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the respective years. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company entered into two agreements to invest in additional tax credit funds, which promote renewable energy through the development of solar energy farms, primarily for the purpose of receiving renewable energy tax credits. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had commitments to make certain additional capital contributions to its tax credit funds totaling approximately $3.4 million upon achievement of project milestones by the solar energy farms, the timing of which is uncertain and outside of the Company’s control. See Note 15 for further information concerning the Company’s investment in renewable energy tax credits. Self-insurance reserves: The Company uses a combination of insurance and self-insurance mechanisms to provide for potential liabilities for Team Member health care benefits, workers’ compensation, vehicle liability, general liability and property loss. With the exception of certain Team Member health care benefit liabilities, employment related claims and litigation, certain commercial litigation and certain regulatory matters, the Company obtains third-party insurance coverage to limit its exposure. The Company estimates its self-insurance liabilities by considering a number of factors, including historical claims experience and trend-lines, projected cost inflation, growth patterns and exposure forecasts. Certain of these liabilities were recorded at an estimate of their net present value. The following table identifies the components of the Company’s self-insurance reserves as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 (in thousands): December 31, 2022 2021 Self-insurance reserves (undiscounted) $ 245,562 $ 233,185 Self-insurance reserves (discounted) 233,017 222,273 The current portion of the Company’s discounted self-insurance reserves totaled $138.9 million and $128.8 million as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, which was included in “Self-insurance reserves” on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. The remainder was included in “Other liabilities” on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. Warranties: The Company provides warranties on certain merchandise it sells with warranty periods ranging from 30 days to limited lifetime warranties. The risk of loss arising from warranty claims is typically the obligation of the Company’s suppliers. Certain suppliers provide upfront allowances to the Company in lieu of accepting the obligation for warranty claims. For this merchandise, when sold, the Company bears the risk of loss associated with the cost of warranty claims. Differences between supplier allowances received by the Company, in lieu of warranty obligations and estimated warranty expense, are recorded as an adjustment to cost of sales. Estimated warranty costs, which are recorded as obligations at the time of sale, are based on the historical failure rate of each individual product line. The Company’s historical experience has been that failure rates are relatively consistent over time and that the ultimate cost of warranty claims to the Company has been driven by volume of units sold as opposed to fluctuations in failure rates or the variation of the cost of individual claims. See Note 8 for further information concerning the Company’s aggregate product warranty liabilities. Litigation accruals: The Company is currently involved in litigation incidental to the ordinary conduct of the Company’s business. Based on existing facts and historical patterns, the Company accrues for litigation losses in instances where an adverse outcome is probable and the Company is able to reasonably estimate the probable loss in accordance with Accounting Standard Codification 450-20. The Company also accrues for an estimate of legal costs to be incurred for litigation matters. Although the Company cannot ascertain the amount of liability that it may incur from legal matters, it does not currently believe that, in the aggregate, these matters, taking into account applicable insurance and accruals, will have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows in a particular quarter or annual period. Share repurchases: In January of 2011, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program. Under the program, the Company may, from time to time, repurchase shares of its common stock, solely through open market purchases effected through a broker dealer at prevailing market prices, based on a variety of factors such as price, corporate trading policy requirements and overall market conditions. All shares repurchased under the share repurchase program are retired and recorded under the par value method on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. See Note 9 for further information concerning the Company’s share repurchase program. Revenue recognition: The Company’s primary source of revenue is derived from the sale of automotive aftermarket parts and merchandise to its customers. Revenue is recognized when performance obligations under the terms of a contract with a customer are satisfied, in an amount representing the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring goods to the customer. Generally, the Company’s performance obligations are satisfied when the customer takes possession of the merchandise, which normally occurs immediately at the point of sale or through same day delivery of the merchandise. All sales are recorded net of estimated returns allowances, discounts and taxes. The Company does not recognize revenue related to product warranties, as these are considered assurance warranty obligations. Over-the-counter retail sales to DIY customers are recorded when the customer takes possession of the merchandise. Internet retail sales, included in sales to DIY customers, are recorded when the merchandise is shipped or when the customer picks up the merchandise at a store. Sales to professional service provider customers, also referred to as “commercial sales,” are recorded upon same-day delivery of the merchandise to the customer, generally at the customer’s place of business. Other sales and sales adjustments primarily includes sales to Team Members, wholesale sales to other retailers (“jobber sales”), equipment sales, discounts, rebates, deferred revenue adjustments relating to the Company’s retail loyalty program and adjustments to estimated sales returns allowances. Sales to Team Members are recorded when the Team Member takes possession of the merchandise. Jobber sales are recorded upon shipment of the merchandise from a regional distribution center with same-day delivery to the jobber customer’s location. The Company maintains a retail loyalty program named O’Reilly O’Rewards, which represents a performance obligation. The Company records a deferred revenue liability, based on a breakage adjusted, estimated redemption rate and a corresponding reduction in revenue in periods when loyalty points are earned by members. The Company recognizes revenue and a corresponding reduction to the deferred revenue liability in periods when loyalty program issued coupons are redeemed by members, generally within a period of three months from issuance, or when unredeemed points expire, generally within 12 months after the date they were earned, which satisfies the Company’s performance obligation. See Note 11 for further information concerning the Company’s revenue. Cost of goods sold and selling, general and administrative expenses: Below follows the primary costs classified in each major expense category. Cost of goods sold, including warehouse and distribution expenses: ● Total cost of merchandise sold, including freight expenses associated with acquiring merchandise and with moving merchandise inventories from the Company’s distribution centers to the stores; and defective merchandise and warranty costs. ● Supplier allowances and incentives, including allowances that are not reimbursements for specific, incremental and identifiable costs; and cash discounts on payments to suppliers. ● Costs associated with the Company’s supply chain, including payroll and benefit costs; warehouse occupancy costs; transportation costs; depreciation; and inventory shrinkage. Selling general and administrative expenses: ● Payroll benefit costs for store and corporate Team Members; ● Occupancy costs of store and corporate facilities; ● Depreciation and amortization related to store and corporate assets; ● Vehicle expenses for store and Hub delivery services; ● Self-insurance costs; ● Closed store expenses; and ● Other administrative costs, including accounting, legal and other professional services; bad debt, banking and credit card fees; supplies; travel; and advertising costs Advertising expenses: Advertising expense consists primarily of expenses related to the Company’s integrated marketing program, which includes radio, in-store, digital and social media promotions, as well as sports and event sponsorships and direct mail and newspaper promotional distribution. The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. The Company also participates in cooperative advertising arrangements with certain of its suppliers. Advertising expense, net of cooperative advertising allowances from suppliers that were incremental to the advertising program, specific to the product or event and identifiable for accounting purposes, total $81.5 million, $72.5 million and $73.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively, which were included in “Selling, general and administrative expenses” on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income. Share-based compensation and benefit plans: The Company sponsors share-based compensation plans and benefit plans. The Company recognizes compensation expense over the requisite service period for its share-based plans based on the fair value of the awards on the date of the grant, award or issuance and accounts for forfeitures as they occur. Share-based plans include stock option awards, restricted stock awards and stock appreciation rights issued under the Company’s incentive plans and stock issued through the Company’s employee stock purchase plan. See Note 12 for further information concerning the Company’s share-based compensation and benefit plans. Pre-opening expenses: Costs associated with the opening of new stores, which consist primarily of payroll and occupancy costs, are charged to “Selling, general and administrative expenses” on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income as incurred. Costs associated with the opening of new distribution centers, which consist primarily of payroll and occupancy costs, are included in “Cost of goods sold, including warehouse and distribution expenses” on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income as incurred. Interest expense: The Company capitalizes interest costs as a component of construction in progress, based on the weighted-average interest rates incurred on its long-term borrowings. Total interest costs capitalized for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, were $5.5 million, $7.0 million and $10.2 million, respectively. In conjunction with the issuance or amendment of long-term debt instruments, the Company incurs various costs, including debt registration fees, accounting and legal fees and underwriter and book runner fees. Debt issuance costs related to the Company’s long-term unsecured senior notes are recorded as a reduction of the principal amount of the corresponding unsecured senior notes. Debt issuance costs related to the Company’s unsecured revolving credit facility are recorded as an asset. These debt issuance costs have been deferred and are being amortized over the term of the corresponding debt instrument and the amortization expense is included in “Interest expense” on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income. Deferred debt issuance costs totaled $24.7 million and $22.0 million net of accumulated amortization, as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, of which $2.6 million and $3.4 million were included in “Other assets, net” as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, with the remainder included in “Long-term debt” on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company issued its long-term unsecured senior notes at a discount. The original issuance discounts on the senior notes are recorded as a reduction of the principal amount of the corresponding senior notes and are accreted over the term of the applicable senior note, with the accretion expense included in “Interest expense” on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income. Original issuance discounts, net of accretion, totaled $6.3 million and $4.4 million as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. See Note 7 for further information concerning debt issuance costs and original issuance discounts associated with the Company’s issuances of long-term debt instruments. Income taxes: The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the U.S. GAAP basis and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rules and rates currently scheduled to be in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Tax carry forwards are also recognized in deferred tax assets and liabilities under this method. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period of the enactment date. The Company would record a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets to the extent it is more likely than not the amount will not be realized, based upon evidence available at the time of the determination and any change in the valuation allowance is recorded in the period of a change in such determination. The Company did not establish a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, as it was considered more likely than not that deferred tax assets were realizable through a combination of future taxable income, the realization of deferred tax liabilities and tax planning strategies. The Company regularly reviews its potential tax liabilities for tax years subject to audit. The amount of such liabilities is based on various factors, such as differing interpretations of tax regulations by the responsible tax authority, experience with previous tax audits and applicable tax law rulings. In management’s opinion, adequate provisions for income taxes have been made for all years presented. The estimates of the Company’s potential tax liabilities contain uncertainties because management must use judgment to estimate the exposures associated with the Company’s various tax positions and actual results could differ from estimates. See Note 15 for further information concerning the Company’s income taxes. Earnings per share: Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the fiscal period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding plus the common stock equivalents associated with the potential impact of dilutive stock options. Certain common stock equivalents that could potentially dilute basic earnings per share in the future were not included in the fully diluted computation because they would have been antidilutive. Generally, stock options are antidilutive and excluded from the earnings per share calculation when the exercise price exceeds the market price of the common shares. See Note 16 for further information concerning the Company’s common stock equivalents. New accounting pronouncements: In September of 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2022- 04, “Liabilities – Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations.” ASU 2022-04 enhances the transparency of supplier finance programs. Under ASU 2022-04, a buyer in a supplier finance program would be required to disclose sufficient information about the program to allow a user of financial statements to understand the program’s nature, activity during the period, changes from period to period and potential magnitude. ASU 2022-04 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within that reporting period, except for the amendment on rollforward information, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. ASU 2022-04 allows for early adoption and requires retrospective adoption, except on rollforward information, which should be applied prospectively. The Company will adopt this guidance beginning with its first quarter ending March 31, 2023. The application of this new guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows, as the guidance pertains to disclosure. |

Fair value measurements | NOTE 2 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis: The Company invests in various marketable securities with the intention of selling these securities to fulfill its future unsecured obligations under the Company’s nonqualified deferred compensation plan. See Note 12 for further information concerning the Company’s benefit plans. The Company’s marketable securities were accounted for as trading securities and the carrying amount of its marketable securities were included in “Other assets, net” on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. The Company recorded a decrease in fair value related to its marketable securities in the amount of $8.3 million and an increase in fair value to its related to its marketable securities in the amount of $5.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, which were included in “Other income (expense)” on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income. The tables below identify the estimated fair value of the Company’s marketable securities, determined by reference to quoted market prices (Level 1), as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 (in thousands): December 31, 2022 Quoted Priced in Active Markets Significant Other Significant for Identical Instruments Observable Inputs Unobservable Inputs (Level 1) (Level 2) (Level 3) Total Marketable securities $ 49,371 $ — $ — $ 49,371 December 31, 2021 Quoted Prices in Active Markets Significant Other Significant for Identical Instruments Observable Inputs Unobservable Inputs (Level 1) (Level 2) (Level 3) Total Marketable securities $ 52,456 $ — $ — $ 52,456 Non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis: Certain long-lived non-financial assets and liabilities may be required to be measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in certain circumstances, including when there is evidence of impairment. These non-financial assets and liabilities may include assets acquired in a business combination or property and equipment that are determined to be impaired. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company did not have any material non-financial assets or liabilities that had been measured at fair value subsequent to initial recognition. Fair value of financial instruments: The carrying amounts of the Company’s senior notes and unsecured revolving credit facility borrowings are included in “Long-term debt” on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. The table below identifies the estimated fair value of the Company’s senior notes, using the market approach. The fair values as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, were determined by reference to quoted market prices of the same or similar instruments (Level 2) (in thousands): December 31, 2022 December 31, 2021 Carrying Amount Estimated Fair Value Carrying Amount Estimated Fair Value Senior Notes $ 4,371,653 $ 4,119,777 $ 3,826,978 $ 4,135,629 The carrying amount of the Company’s unsecured revolving credit facility approximates fair value (Level 2), as borrowings under the facility bear variable interest at current market rates. See Note 7 for further information concerning the Company’s senior notes and unsecured revolving credit facility. The accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets include other financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, amounts receivable from suppliers and accounts payable. Due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments, the Company believes that the carrying values of these instruments approximate their fair values. |

The future minimum lease payments under the Company’s operating leases, in the table above, do not include potential amounts for percentage rent and other variable operating lease related costs and have not been reduced by expected future minimum sublease income under non-cancelable subleases, which was approximately $13.2 million as of December 31, 2022. The weighted-average remaining lease term and weighted-average discount rate for the Company’s operating leases was 9.6 years and 4.0%, respectively, as of December 31, 2022. The present value discount component of the future minimum lease payments under the Company’s operating leases, in the table above, was primarily calculated using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate based on information available at the lease commencement or modification date. Inputs for the calculation of the Company’s incremental borrowing rate include valuations and yields of U.S. domestic investment grade corporate bonds and the applicable credit spread over comparable U.S. Treasury rates, adjusted to a collateralized basis by estimating the credit spread improvement that would result from an upgrade of one ratings classification. When the implicit rate of a lease is available, the implicit rate is used in the calculation and not the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. |

The Credit Agreement provides for a five-year $1.8 billion unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) arranged by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., which is scheduled to mature in June of 2026. The Credit Agreement includes a $200 million sub-limit for the issuance of letters of credit and a $75 million sub-limit for swing line borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility. As described in the Credit Agreement governing the Revolving Credit Facility, the Company may, from time to time, subject to certain conditions, increase the aggregate commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility by up to $900 million, provided that the aggregate amount of the commitments does not exceed $2.7 billion at any time. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had outstanding letters of credit, primarily to support obligations related to workers’ compensation, general liability and other insurance policies, under the Credit Agreement in the amounts of $5.1 million and $84.0 million, respectively, reducing the aggregate availability under the Credit Agreement by those amounts. Substantially all of the outstanding letters of credit have a one-year term from the date of issuance. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under its Revolving Credit Facility. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility (other than swing line loans) bear interest, at the Company’s option, at either an Alternate Base Rate or an Adjusted LIBO Rate (both as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus an applicable margin, which will vary from 0.000% to 0.250% in the case of loans bearing interest at the Alternate Base Rate and 0.680% to 1.250% in the case of loans bearing interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate, in each case based upon the better of the ratings assigned to our debt by Moody’s Investor Service, Inc. and Standard & Poor’s Rating Services, subject to limited exceptions. The Credit Agreement includes customary provisions to provide for the eventual replacement of LIBOR as a benchmark interest rate. Swing line loans made under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at an Alternate Base Rate plus the applicable margin for Alternate Base Rate loans. In addition, the Company pays a facility fee on the aggregate amount of the commitments under the Credit Agreement in an amount equal to a percentage of such commitments, varying from 0.070% to 0.250% per annum. The interest rate margins and facility fee are based upon the better of the ratings assigned to the Company’s debt by Moody’s Investor Service, Inc. and Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services, subject to limited exceptions. As of December 31, 2022, based upon the Company’s current credit ratings, its margin for Alternate Base Rate loans was 0.000%, its margin for Eurodollar Revolving Loans was 0.900% and its facility fee was 0.100%. The Credit Agreement contains certain covenants, including limitations on subsidiary indebtedness, a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of 2.50:1.00 and a maximum consolidated leverage ratio of 3.50:1.00. The consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio includes a calculation of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, rent and non-cash share-based compensation expense to fixed charges. Fixed charges include interest expense, capitalized interest and rent expense. The consolidated leverage ratio includes a calculation of adjusted debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, rent and non-cash share-based compensation expense. Adjusted debt includes outstanding debt, outstanding stand-by letters of credit and similar instruments and five-times rent expense and excludes any premium or discount recorded in conjunction with the issuance of long-term debt. In the event that the Company should default on any covenant (subject to customary grace periods, cure rights and materiality thresholds) contained in the Credit Agreement, certain actions may be taken, including, but not limited to, possible termination of commitments, immediate payment of outstanding principal amounts plus accrued interest and other amounts payable under the Credit Agreement and litigation from lenders. As of December 31, 2022, the Company remained in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Agreement. In addition to the letters of credit issued under the Credit Agreement described above, as of December 31, 2022, the Company had other outstanding letters of credit, primarily to support obligations under workers’ compensation, general liability and other insurance policies, in the amount of $96.6 million. Substantially all of these letters of credit have a one-year term from the date of issuance and were not issued under the Company’s Credit Agreement or another committed facility. Senior notes: On June 15, 2022, the Company issued $850 million aggregate principal amount of unsecured 4.700% Senior Notes due 2032 (“4.700% Senior Notes due 2032”) at a price to the public of 99.684% of their face value with U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association (“U.S. Bank”) as trustee. Interest on the 4.700% Senior Notes due 2032 is payable on June 15 and December 15 of each year, beginning on December 15, 2022, and is computed on the basis of a 360-day year. On September 1, 2022, the Company’s $300 million aggregate principal amount of unsecured 3.800% Senior Notes due 2022 matured, and the Company repaid these notes using available cash on hand. As of December 31, 2022, the Company has issued and outstanding a cumulative $4.4 billion aggregate principal amount of unsecured senior notes, which are due between 2023 and 2032, with UMB Bank, N.A. and U.S. Bank Trust Company as trustees. Interest on the senior notes, ranging from 1.750% to 4.700%, is payable semi-annually and is computed on the basis of a 360-day year. The $300 million aggregate principal amount of unsecured 3.850% Senior Notes due 2023 were included in “Long-term debt” on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2022, as the Company has the ability and intent to refinance these notes on a long-term basis. None of the Company’s subsidiaries is a guarantor under the senior notes. Each of the senior notes is subject to certain customary covenants, with which the Company complied as of December 31, 2022. |

Share-Based Compensation and Benefit Plans | |
Share-based compensation and benefit plans | NOTE 12 – SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION AND BENEFIT PLANS The Company recognizes share-based compensation expense based on the fair value of the grants, awards or shares at the time of the grant, award or issuance. Share-based compensation includes stock option awards, restricted stock awards and stock appreciation rights issued under the Company’s incentive plans and stock issued through the Company’s employee stock purchase plan. The table below identifies the shares that have been authorized for issuance and the shares available for future issuance under the Company plans, as of December 31, 2022 (in thousands): December 31, 2022 Total Shares Authorized for Shares Available for Future Plans Issuance under the Plans Issuance under the Plans Incentive Plans 35,650 5,575 Employee Stock Purchase Plan 4,250 438 Profit Sharing and Savings Plan 4,200 349 Stock options: The Company’s incentive plans provide for the granting of stock options for the purchase of common stock of the Company to certain key employees of the Company. Employee stock options are granted at an exercise price that is equal to the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant. Employee stock options granted under the plans expire after 10 years and typically vest 25% per year, over four years. The Company records compensation expense for the grant date fair value of the option awards evenly over the vesting period or minimum required service period. The table below identifies stock option activity under these plans during the year ended December 31, 2022: Average Aggregate Shares Weighted- Average Remaining Intrinsic Value (in thousands) Exercise Price Contractual Terms (in thousands) Outstanding at December 31, 2021 1,206 $ 300.09 Granted 130 676.48 Exercised (251) 242.51 Forfeited or expired (16) 475.16 Outstanding at December 31, 2022 1,069 $ 356.76 5.6 Years $ 520,691 Vested or expected to vest at December 31, 2022 1,049 $ 353.40 5.6 Years $ 514,833 Exercisable at December 31, 2022 739 $ 280.98 4.5 Years $ 416,152 The fair value of each stock option award 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 the risk-free rate, expected life, expected volatility and expected dividend yield. ● Risk-free interest rate – The United States Treasury rates in effect at the time the options are granted for the options’ expected life. ● Expected life – Represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The Company uses historical experience to estimate the expected life of options granted. ● Expected volatility – Measure of the amount, by which the Company’s stock price is expected to fluctuate, based on a historical trend. ● Expected dividend yield – The Company has not paid, nor does it have plans in the foreseeable future to pay, any dividends. The table below identifies the weighted-average assumptions used for grants awarded during the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020: December 31, 2022 2021 2020 Risk free interest rate 2.09 % 0.82 % 0.86 % Expected life 6.3 Years 5.9 Years 5.9 Years Expected volatility 28.9 % 30.0 % 26.4 % Expected dividend yield — % — % — % The following table summarizes activity related to stock options awarded by the Company for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020: For the Year Ended December 31, 2022 2021 2020 Compensation expense for stock options awarded (in thousands) $ 21,412 $ 20,035 $ 18,435 Income tax benefit from compensation expense related to stock options (in thousands) 5,332 4,989 4,620 Total intrinsic value of stock options exercised (in thousands) 123,911 163,722 79,451 Cash received from exercise of stock options (in thousands) 60,976 67,761 46,282 Weighted-average grant-date fair value of options awarded $ 221.19 $ 146.57 $ 106.76 Weighted-average remaining contractual life of exercisable options (in years) 4.5 4.7 4.5 At December 31, 2022, the remaining unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock option awards was $35.2 million, and the weighted-average period of time, over which this cost will be recognized, is 2.6 years. Restricted stock: The Company’s incentive plans provide for the awarding of shares of restricted stock to certain key employees that vest evenly over a three-year period and are held in escrow until such vesting has occurred. Generally, unvested shares are forfeited when an employee ceases employment. The fair value of shares awarded under these plans is based on the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of award and compensation expense is recorded over the vesting period or minimum required service period. The table below identifies employee restricted stock activity under these plans during the year ended December 31, 2022 (in thousands, except per share data): Weighted-Average Grant-Date Shares Fair Value Non-vested at December 31, 2021 3 $ 419.47 Granted during the period 1 660.48 Vested during the period (1) (1) 400.23 Forfeited during the period — — Non-vested at December 31, 2022 3 $ 531.66 (1) Includes less than one thousand shares withheld to cover employees’ taxes upon vesting. The Company’s incentive plans provide for the awarding of shares of restricted stock to the non-employee directors of the Company that vest after one-year or evenly over a three-year period and are held in escrow until such vesting has occurred. Unvested shares are forfeited when a director ceases their service on the Company’s Board of Directors for reasons other than death or retirement. The fair value of shares awarded under these plans is based on the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of award, and compensation expense is recorded evenly over the minimum required service period. The table below identifies non-employee director restricted stock activity under these plans during the year ended December 31, 2022 (in thousands, except per share data): Weighted-Average Grant-Date Shares Fair Value Non-vested at December 31, 2021 2 $ 508.45 Granted during the period 2 635.62 Vested during the period (2) 508.45 Forfeited during the period — — Non-vested at December 31, 2022 2 $ 635.62 The following table summarizes activity related to restricted stock awarded by the Company for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 (in thousands, except per share data): For the Year Ended December 31, 2022 2021 2020 Compensation expense for restricted shares awarded $ 1,808 $ 1,602 $ 1,488 Income tax benefit from compensation expense related to restricted shares $ 450 $ 399 $ 373 Total fair value of restricted shares at vest date $ 2,595 $ 2,815 $ 1,591 Shares awarded under the plans 3 3 4 Weighted-average grant-date fair value of shares awarded under the plans $ 645.31 $ 509.24 $ 412.67 At December 31, 2022, the remaining unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested restricted share awards was $0.5 million, and the weighted-average period of time, over which this cost will be recognized, is 0.3 years . Employee stock purchase plan: The Company’s employee stock purchase plan (the “ESPP”) permits eligible employees to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at 85% of the fair market value. Employees may authorize the Company to withhold up to 5% of their annual salary to participate in the plan. The fair value of shares issued under the ESPP is based on the average of the high and low market prices of the Company’s common stock during the offering periods, and compensation expense is recognized based on the discount between the grant-date fair value and the employee purchase price for the shares sold to employees. The table below summarizes activity related to the Company’s ESPP for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 (in thousands, except per share data): For the Year Ended December 31, 2022 2021 2020 Compensation expense for shares issued under the ESPP $ 3,238 $ 3,019 $ 2,824 Income tax benefit from compensation expense related to shares issued under the ESPP $ 806 $ 752 $ 708 Shares issued under the ESPP 31 36 45 Weighted-average price of shares issued under the ESPP $ 592.22 $ 473.22 $ 353.04 Profit sharing and savings plan: The Company sponsors a contributory profit sharing and savings plan (the “401(k) Plan”) that covers substantially all employees who are at least 21 years of age and have completed one year of service. The Company makes matching contributions equal to 100% of the first 2% of each employee’s wages that are contributed and 25% of the next 4% of each employee’s wages that are contributed. An employee generally must be employed on December 31 to receive that year’s Company matching contribution, with the matching contribution funded annually at the beginning of the subsequent year following the year in which the matching contribution was earned. The Company may also make additional discretionary profit sharing contributions to the plan on an annual basis as determined by the Board of Directors. The Company did not make any discretionary contributions to the 401(k) Plan during the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 or 2020. The Company expensed matching contributions under the 401(k) Plan in the amounts of $36.7 million, $32.5 million and $31.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively, which were primarily included in “Selling, general and administrative expenses” on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income. Nonqualified deferred compensation plan: The Company sponsors a nonqualified deferred compensation plan (the “Deferred Compensation Plan”) for highly compensated employees whose contributions to the 401(k) Plan are limited due to the application of the annual limitations under the Internal Revenue Code. The Deferred Compensation Plan provides these employees with the opportunity to defer the full 6% of matched compensation, including salary and incentive based compensation, that was precluded under the Company’s 401(k) Plan, which is then matched by the Company using the same formula as the 401(k) Plan. An employee generally must be employed on December 31 to receive that year’s Company matching contribution, with the matching contribution funded annually at the beginning of the subsequent year following the year in which the matching contribution was earned. In the event of bankruptcy, the assets of this plan are available to satisfy the claims of general creditors. The Company has an unsecured obligation to pay, in the future, the value of the deferred compensation and Company match, adjusted to reflect the performance, whether positive or negative, of selected investment measurement options chosen by each participant during the deferral period. The timing related to the ultimate payment of these future share-based compensation related payments cannot be determined. The liability for compensation deferred under the Deferred Compensation Plan was $49.4 million and $52.5 million as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, which were included in “Other liabilities” on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company expensed matching contributions under the Deferred Compensation Plan in the amount of $0.2 million for each of the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively, which were included in “Selling, general and administrative expenses” on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income. Stock appreciation rights: The Company’s incentive plans provide for the granting of stock appreciation rights, which expire after 10 years and vest 25% per year, over four years, and are settled in cash. There were 13,159 and 9,811 stock appreciation rights outstanding as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2022, there were 3,348 stock appreciation rights granted. The liability for compensation to be paid for redeemed stock appreciation rights was $2.9 million and $1.3 million as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, which were included in “Other liabilities” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company recorded compensation expense for stock appreciation rights in the amounts of $1.7 million and $1.0 million and $0.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively, which were included in “Selling, general and administrative expenses” on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income. |

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUN_2
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies) | 12 Months Ended |
Dec. 31, 2022 | |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | |
Nature of business | Nature of business: O’Reilly Automotive, Inc. and Subsidiaries, collectively, “O’Reilly” or the “Company,” is a specialty retailer and supplier of automotive aftermarket parts. The Company’s stores carry an extensive product line, including new and remanufactured automotive hard parts, maintenance items and various automotive accessories. As of December 31, 2022, the Company owned and operated 5,929 stores in 47 U.S. states and 42 stores in Mexico, servicing both do-it-yourself (“DIY”) and the professional service provider customers. The Company’s robust distribution system provides stores with same-day or overnight access to an extensive inventory of hard-to-find items not typically stocked in the stores of other auto parts retailers. |
Segment reporting | Segment reporting: The Company is managed and operated by a single single |
Principles of consolidation | Principles of consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. |
Use of estimates | Use of estimates: The preparation of the consolidated financial statements, in conformity with United States (“U.S.”) generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. |
Cash equivalents | Cash equivalents: Cash equivalents include investments with maturities of 90 days or less on the date of purchase. |
Foreign Currency | Foreign Currency: The Company accounts for its Mexican operations using the local market currency, the Mexican peso, and converts its financial statements compiled for these operations from the Mexican peso to U.S. dollars. The cumulative gain or loss on currency translation is included as a component of “Accumulated other comprehensive income” on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. See Note 10 for further information concerning the Company’s accumulated other comprehensive income. |
Accounts receivable | Accounts receivable: The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of the Company’s customers to make required payments. The Company considers the following factors when determining if collection is reasonably assured: customer creditworthiness, past transaction history with the customer, current expectations of future economic and industry trends, changes in customer payment terms and management’s expectations. Allowances for doubtful accounts are determined based on historical experience and an evaluation of the current composition of accounts receivable. The Company grants credit to certain professional service provider and jobber customers who meet the Company’s pre-established credit requirements. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to these receivables are limited because the Company’s customer base consists of a large number of relatively small customers, spreading the credit risk across a broad base regarded as a single class of financing receivable by the Company. The Company also controls this credit risk through credit approvals, credit limits and accounts receivable and credit monitoring procedures. Generally, the Company does not require security when credit is granted to customers. Credit is granted to customers on a short-term basis, consisting primarily of daily, weekly or monthly accounts. Credit losses are provided for in the Company’s consolidated financial statements and have consistently been within management’s expectations. Management does not believe there is a reasonable likelihood that the Company will be unable to collect the aggregate amounts receivable from suppliers, and the Company did not record a reserve for uncollectable amounts from suppliers in the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. Amounts due to the Company from its Team Members are included in “Accounts receivable” on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. These amounts consist primarily of purchases of merchandise on Team Member accounts. Accounts receivable due from Team Members was approximately $0.8 million and $0.7 million as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. |
Amounts receivable from suppliers | Amounts receivable from suppliers: The Company receives concessions from its suppliers through a variety of programs and arrangements, including allowances for new stores and warranties, volume purchase rebates and co-operative advertising. Co-operative advertising allowances that are incremental to the Company’s advertising program, specific to a product or event and identifiable for accounting purposes are reported as a reduction of advertising expense in the period in which the advertising occurred. All other supplier concessions are recognized as a reduction to the cost of sales. Amounts receivable from suppliers also include amounts due to the Company for changeover merchandise and product returns. The Company regularly reviews supplier receivables for collectability and assesses the need for a reserve for uncollectable amounts based on an evaluation of the Company’s suppliers’ financial positions and corresponding abilities to meet financial obligations. Management does not believe there is a reasonable likelihood that the Company will be unable to collect the amounts receivable from suppliers and the Company did not record a reserve for uncollectable amounts from suppliers in the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2022 or 2021. |
Inventory | Inventory: Inventory, which consists of automotive hard parts, maintenance items, accessories and tools, is stated at the lower of cost or market. Inventory also includes capitalized costs related to procurement, warehousing and distribution centers (“DCs”). Cost has been determined using the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) method, which more accurately matches costs with related revenues. The replacement cost of inventory was $4.70 billion and $3.92 billion as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. |
Fair value of financial instruments | Fair value of financial instruments: 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 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement). The Company uses the income and market approaches to determine the fair value of its assets and liabilities. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are set forth below: ● Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity can access at the measurement date. ● Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. ● Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. See Note 2 for further information concerning the Company’s financial and non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis. |
Property and equipment | Property and equipment: Property and equipment are carried at cost. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method, generally over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the lease term or the estimated economic life of the assets. The lease term includes renewal options determined by management at lease inception, for which failure to execute renewal options would result in a substantial economic penalty to the Company. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Upon retirement or sale, the cost and accumulated depreciation are eliminated and the gain or loss, if any, is recognized in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable. See Note 4 for further information concerning the Company’s property and equipment. |
Goodwill and other intangibles | Goodwill and other intangibles: The accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 2022 and 2021, include goodwill and other intangible assets recorded as the result of acquisitions. The Company operates a single reporting unit and evaluates goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles for impairment annually during the fourth quarter, or when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of these assets might exceed their current fair values. The goodwill impairment test includes an optional qualitative assessment. The Company’s qualitative assessment found no evidence to suggest it is more likely than not that its fair value is less than its carrying amount, including goodwill, as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. As such, no goodwill impairment adjustment was required as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. Finite-lived intangibles are carried at amortized cost and amortization is calculated using the straight-line method, generally over the estimated useful lives of the intangibles. See Note 6 for further information concerning the Company’s goodwill and other intangibles. |
Leases | Leases: The Company leases certain office space, retail stores, distribution centers and equipment under long-term, non-cancelable operating leases. The Company does not separate non-lease components from lease components for any current lease contracts. Leases generally include renewal options and some include options to purchase, provisions for percentage rent based on sales and/or incremental step increase provisions. The exercise of renewal options is typically at the Company’s sole discretion and all operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. The Company rents or subleases certain surplus real estate to third parties. Right-of-use assets and corresponding operating lease liabilities are recognized for all leases with an initial term greater than 12 months. See Note 5 for further information concerning the Company’s operating leases. |
Impairment of long-lived assets | Impairment of long-lived assets: The Company reviews its long-lived assets, including its right-of-use assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. When such an event occurs, the Company compares the sum of the undiscounted expected future cash flows of the asset (asset group) with the carrying amounts of the asset. If the undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than the carrying value of the assets, the Company measures the amount of impairment loss as the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. The Company has not historically recorded any material impairment charges to its long-lived assets. See Note 4 for further information concerning the Company’s impairment of long-lived assets activities. |
Valuation of investments | Valuation of investments: The Company has an unsecured obligation to pay, in the future, the value of deferred compensation and a Company match relating to employee participation in the Company’s nonqualified deferred compensation plan (the “Deferred Compensation Plan”). The future obligation is adjusted to reflect the performance, whether positive or negative, of selected investment measurement options, chosen by each participant. The Company invests in various marketable securities with the intention of selling these securities to fulfill its future obligations under the Deferred Compensation Plan. The investments in this plan were stated at fair value based on quoted market prices, were accounted for as trading securities and were included in “Other assets, net” on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. See Note 2 for further information concerning the fair value measurements of the Company’s marketable securities. See Note 12 for further information concerning the Company’s benefit plans. |
Variable Interest Entities | Variable Interest Entities: The Company invests in certain tax credit funds that promote renewable energy. These investments generate a return primarily through the realization of federal tax credits and other tax benefits. The Company accounts for the tax attributes of its renewable energy investments using the deferral method. Under this method, realized investment tax credits and other tax benefits are recognized as a reduction of the renewable energy investments. The Company has determined its investment in these tax credit funds were investments in variable interest entities (“VIEs”). The Company analyzes any investments in VIEs at inception and again if certain triggering events are identified to determine if it is the primary beneficiary. The Company considers a variety of factors in identifying the entity that holds the power to direct matters that most significantly impact the VIEs’ economic performance including, but not limited to, the ability to direct financing, leasing, construction and other operating decisions and activities. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had invested in six unconsolidated tax credit fund entities that were considered to be VIEs and concluded it was not the primary beneficiary of any of the entities, as it did not have the power to control the activities that most significantly impact the entities, and has therefore accounted for these investments using the equity method. The Company’s maximum exposure to losses associated with these VIEs is generally limited to its net investment, which was $38.0 million as of December 31, 2022, and was included in “Other assets, net” on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, the Company recognized investment tax credits in the amounts of $167.6 million, $177.1 million and $170.5 million, respectively, all of which were realized through reductions in cash income taxes paid and were reflected as a component of the change in Income taxes payable on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the respective years. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company entered into two agreements to invest in additional tax credit funds, which promote renewable energy through the development of solar energy farms, primarily for the purpose of receiving renewable energy tax credits. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had commitments to make certain additional capital contributions to its tax credit funds totaling approximately $3.4 million upon achievement of project milestones by the solar energy farms, the timing of which is uncertain and outside of the Company’s control. See Note 15 for further information concerning the Company’s investment in renewable energy tax credits. |
Self-insurance reserves | Self-insurance reserves: The Company uses a combination of insurance and self-insurance mechanisms to provide for potential liabilities for Team Member health care benefits, workers’ compensation, vehicle liability, general liability and property loss. With the exception of certain Team Member health care benefit liabilities, employment related claims and litigation, certain commercial litigation and certain regulatory matters, the Company obtains third-party insurance coverage to limit its exposure. The Company estimates its self-insurance liabilities by considering a number of factors, including historical claims experience and trend-lines, projected cost inflation, growth patterns and exposure forecasts. Certain of these liabilities were recorded at an estimate of their net present value. The following table identifies the components of the Company’s self-insurance reserves as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 (in thousands): December 31, 2022 2021 Self-insurance reserves (undiscounted) $ 245,562 $ 233,185 Self-insurance reserves (discounted) 233,017 222,273 The current portion of the Company’s discounted self-insurance reserves totaled $138.9 million and $128.8 million as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, which was included in “Self-insurance reserves” on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. The remainder was included in “Other liabilities” on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. |
Warranties | Warranties: The Company provides warranties on certain merchandise it sells with warranty periods ranging from 30 days to limited lifetime warranties. The risk of loss arising from warranty claims is typically the obligation of the Company’s suppliers. Certain suppliers provide upfront allowances to the Company in lieu of accepting the obligation for warranty claims. For this merchandise, when sold, the Company bears the risk of loss associated with the cost of warranty claims. Differences between supplier allowances received by the Company, in lieu of warranty obligations and estimated warranty expense, are recorded as an adjustment to cost of sales. Estimated warranty costs, which are recorded as obligations at the time of sale, are based on the historical failure rate of each individual product line. The Company’s historical experience has been that failure rates are relatively consistent over time and that the ultimate cost of warranty claims to the Company has been driven by volume of units sold as opposed to fluctuations in failure rates or the variation of the cost of individual claims. See Note 8 for further information concerning the Company’s aggregate product warranty liabilities. |
Litigation accruals | Litigation accruals: The Company is currently involved in litigation incidental to the ordinary conduct of the Company’s business. Based on existing facts and historical patterns, the Company accrues for litigation losses in instances where an adverse outcome is probable and the Company is able to reasonably estimate the probable loss in accordance with Accounting Standard Codification 450-20. The Company also accrues for an estimate of legal costs to be incurred for litigation matters. Although the Company cannot ascertain the amount of liability that it may incur from legal matters, it does not currently believe that, in the aggregate, these matters, taking into account applicable insurance and accruals, will have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows in a particular quarter or annual period. |
Share repurchases | Share repurchases: In January of 2011, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program. Under the program, the Company may, from time to time, repurchase shares of its common stock, solely through open market purchases effected through a broker dealer at prevailing market prices, based on a variety of factors such as price, corporate trading policy requirements and overall market conditions. All shares repurchased under the share repurchase program are retired and recorded under the par value method on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. See Note 9 for further information concerning the Company’s share repurchase program. |
Revenue recognition | Revenue recognition: The Company’s primary source of revenue is derived from the sale of automotive aftermarket parts and merchandise to its customers. Revenue is recognized when performance obligations under the terms of a contract with a customer are satisfied, in an amount representing the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring goods to the customer. Generally, the Company’s performance obligations are satisfied when the customer takes possession of the merchandise, which normally occurs immediately at the point of sale or through same day delivery of the merchandise. All sales are recorded net of estimated returns allowances, discounts and taxes. The Company does not recognize revenue related to product warranties, as these are considered assurance warranty obligations. Over-the-counter retail sales to DIY customers are recorded when the customer takes possession of the merchandise. Internet retail sales, included in sales to DIY customers, are recorded when the merchandise is shipped or when the customer picks up the merchandise at a store. Sales to professional service provider customers, also referred to as “commercial sales,” are recorded upon same-day delivery of the merchandise to the customer, generally at the customer’s place of business. Other sales and sales adjustments primarily includes sales to Team Members, wholesale sales to other retailers (“jobber sales”), equipment sales, discounts, rebates, deferred revenue adjustments relating to the Company’s retail loyalty program and adjustments to estimated sales returns allowances. Sales to Team Members are recorded when the Team Member takes possession of the merchandise. Jobber sales are recorded upon shipment of the merchandise from a regional distribution center with same-day delivery to the jobber customer’s location. The Company maintains a retail loyalty program named O’Reilly O’Rewards, which represents a performance obligation. The Company records a deferred revenue liability, based on a breakage adjusted, estimated redemption rate and a corresponding reduction in revenue in periods when loyalty points are earned by members. The Company recognizes revenue and a corresponding reduction to the deferred revenue liability in periods when loyalty program issued coupons are redeemed by members, generally within a period of three months from issuance, or when unredeemed points expire, generally within 12 months after the date they were earned, which satisfies the Company’s performance obligation. See Note 11 for further information concerning the Company’s revenue. |
Cost of goods sold and selling, general and administrative expenses | Cost of goods sold and selling, general and administrative expenses: Below follows the primary costs classified in each major expense category. Cost of goods sold, including warehouse and distribution expenses: ● Total cost of merchandise sold, including freight expenses associated with acquiring merchandise and with moving merchandise inventories from the Company’s distribution centers to the stores; and defective merchandise and warranty costs. ● Supplier allowances and incentives, including allowances that are not reimbursements for specific, incremental and identifiable costs; and cash discounts on payments to suppliers. ● Costs associated with the Company’s supply chain, including payroll and benefit costs; warehouse occupancy costs; transportation costs; depreciation; and inventory shrinkage. Selling general and administrative expenses: ● Payroll benefit costs for store and corporate Team Members; ● Occupancy costs of store and corporate facilities; ● Depreciation and amortization related to store and corporate assets; ● Vehicle expenses for store and Hub delivery services; ● Self-insurance costs; ● Closed store expenses; and ● Other administrative costs, including accounting, legal and other professional services; bad debt, banking and credit card fees; supplies; travel; and advertising costs |
Advertising expenses | Advertising expenses: Advertising expense consists primarily of expenses related to the Company’s integrated marketing program, which includes radio, in-store, digital and social media promotions, as well as sports and event sponsorships and direct mail and newspaper promotional distribution. The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. The Company also participates in cooperative advertising arrangements with certain of its suppliers. Advertising expense, net of cooperative advertising allowances from suppliers that were incremental to the advertising program, specific to the product or event and identifiable for accounting purposes, total $81.5 million, $72.5 million and $73.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively, which were included in “Selling, general and administrative expenses” on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income. |
Share-based compensation and benefit plans | Share-based compensation and benefit plans: The Company sponsors share-based compensation plans and benefit plans. The Company recognizes compensation expense over the requisite service period for its share-based plans based on the fair value of the awards on the date of the grant, award or issuance and accounts for forfeitures as they occur. Share-based plans include stock option awards, restricted stock awards and stock appreciation rights issued under the Company’s incentive plans and stock issued through the Company’s employee stock purchase plan. See Note 12 for further information concerning the Company’s share-based compensation and benefit plans. |
Pre-opening expenses | Pre-opening expenses: Costs associated with the opening of new stores, which consist primarily of payroll and occupancy costs, are charged to “Selling, general and administrative expenses” on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income as incurred. Costs associated with the opening of new distribution centers, which consist primarily of payroll and occupancy costs, are included in “Cost of goods sold, including warehouse and distribution expenses” on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income as incurred. |
Interest expense | Interest expense: The Company capitalizes interest costs as a component of construction in progress, based on the weighted-average interest rates incurred on its long-term borrowings. Total interest costs capitalized for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, were $5.5 million, $7.0 million and $10.2 million, respectively. In conjunction with the issuance or amendment of long-term debt instruments, the Company incurs various costs, including debt registration fees, accounting and legal fees and underwriter and book runner fees. Debt issuance costs related to the Company’s long-term unsecured senior notes are recorded as a reduction of the principal amount of the corresponding unsecured senior notes. Debt issuance costs related to the Company’s unsecured revolving credit facility are recorded as an asset. These debt issuance costs have been deferred and are being amortized over the term of the corresponding debt instrument and the amortization expense is included in “Interest expense” on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income. Deferred debt issuance costs totaled $24.7 million and $22.0 million net of accumulated amortization, as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, of which $2.6 million and $3.4 million were included in “Other assets, net” as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, with the remainder included in “Long-term debt” on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company issued its long-term unsecured senior notes at a discount. The original issuance discounts on the senior notes are recorded as a reduction of the principal amount of the corresponding senior notes and are accreted over the term of the applicable senior note, with the accretion expense included in “Interest expense” on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income. Original issuance discounts, net of accretion, totaled $6.3 million and $4.4 million as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. See Note 7 for further information concerning debt issuance costs and original issuance discounts associated with the Company’s issuances of long-term debt instruments. |
Income taxes | Income taxes: The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the U.S. GAAP basis and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rules and rates currently scheduled to be in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Tax carry forwards are also recognized in deferred tax assets and liabilities under this method. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period of the enactment date. The Company would record a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets to the extent it is more likely than not the amount will not be realized, based upon evidence available at the time of the determination and any change in the valuation allowance is recorded in the period of a change in such determination. The Company did not establish a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, as it was considered more likely than not that deferred tax assets were realizable through a combination of future taxable income, the realization of deferred tax liabilities and tax planning strategies. The Company regularly reviews its potential tax liabilities for tax years subject to audit. The amount of such liabilities is based on various factors, such as differing interpretations of tax regulations by the responsible tax authority, experience with previous tax audits and applicable tax law rulings. In management’s opinion, adequate provisions for income taxes have been made for all years presented. The estimates of the Company’s potential tax liabilities contain uncertainties because management must use judgment to estimate the exposures associated with the Company’s various tax positions and actual results could differ from estimates. See Note 15 for further information concerning the Company’s income taxes. |
Earnings per share | Earnings per share: Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the fiscal period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding plus the common stock equivalents associated with the potential impact of dilutive stock options. Certain common stock equivalents that could potentially dilute basic earnings per share in the future were not included in the fully diluted computation because they would have been antidilutive. Generally, stock options are antidilutive and excluded from the earnings per share calculation when the exercise price exceeds the market price of the common shares. See Note 16 for further information concerning the Company’s common stock equivalents. |
New accounting pronouncements | New accounting pronouncements: In September of 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2022- 04, “Liabilities – Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations.” ASU 2022-04 enhances the transparency of supplier finance programs. Under ASU 2022-04, a buyer in a supplier finance program would be required to disclose sufficient information about the program to allow a user of financial statements to understand the program’s nature, activity during the period, changes from period to period and potential magnitude. ASU 2022-04 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within that reporting period, except for the amendment on rollforward information, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. ASU 2022-04 allows for early adoption and requires retrospective adoption, except on rollforward information, which should be applied prospectively. The Company will adopt this guidance beginning with its first quarter ending March 31, 2023. The application of this new guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows, as the guidance pertains to disclosure. |
