Exhibit 99.4 UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL DATA The following pro forma consolidated financial data has been prepared by the management of Advance Auto Parts, Inc. ("Advance Auto Parts") by applying pro forma adjustments to the historical consolidated financial statements of Advance Holding Corporation ("Advance Holding") and Discount Auto Parts, Inc. ("Discount") and the related notes thereto. The pro forma adjustments, which are based upon available information and upon certain assumptions that Advance Auto Parts' management believes are reasonable, are described in the accompanying notes. The unaudited pro forma balance sheet as of October 6, 2001 was prepared as if the merger with Discount and related financing had occurred on such date. The unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations combine the Advance Holding consolidated statements of operations for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2000 (comprising fifty-two weeks), for the twelve months ended October 6, 2001 (comprising fifty-two weeks) and for the nine month period ended October 6, 2001 (comprising forty weeks) with the Discount unaudited consolidated income statements for the twelve-month period ended November 28, 2000 (comprising fifty-two weeks), for the twelve-month period ended August 28, 2001 (comprising fifty-two weeks) and for the nine month period ended August 28, 2001 (comprising thirty-nine weeks), respectively, to reflect the merger and the related financing as if such transactions had been consummated and were effective as of January 2, 2000. Advance Auto Parts' fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to December 31 of each year, while Discount's fiscal year ends on the Tuesday closest to May 31 of each year. Accordingly, for purposes of the pro forma consolidated statements of operations, comparable annual and nine month period results for the respective companies have been combined in order to provide comparable results for the periods presented. The merger has been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. The unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet as of October 6, 2001 reflects a pro forma allocation of purchase price for the merger to the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities acquired. The final allocation of such purchase price, and the resulting depreciation and amortization expense, will differ from the estimates contained herein due to the final allocation being based on (a) the actual amounts of assets and liabilities on the closing date,(b) final purchase price adjustments, including reserves that may be recognized for possible exit costs, and (c) the final determination of values of property and equipment and intangible and other assets. The actual allocation of the purchase price, and the resulting effect on income from operations may differ significantly from the pro forma amounts included herein. The financial effects to Advance Auto Parts of the merger as presented in the pro forma consolidated financial data are not necessarily indicative of Advance Auto Parts' consolidated financial position or results of operations which would have been obtained had the merger actually occurred on the dates described above, nor are they necessarily indicative of the results of future operations. The pro forma consolidated financial data should be read in conjunction with the notes hereto, which are an integral part hereof, the consolidated historical financial statements of Advance Holding and Discount and the notes thereto.

Advance Auto Parts believes that Discount has intangible assets related to trade names, trade dress, customer contracts and related customer relationships that may ultimately be assigned fair market value in the final purchase price allocation, however, the amounts to be assigned to these intangible assets cannot be estimated currently. Accordingly, the net decrease to book value of property and equipment and intangible assets that results from the purchase price allocation has been allocated in its entirety to property and equipment for purposes of this pro forma presentation and depreciated based on an assumed average useful life of 14 years. The allocation of the net decrease to book value of property and equipment and intangible assets may differ significantly from the pro forma allocation and, as a result, the final related reduction in depreciation expense and increase to amortization expense for intangible assets may differ significantly from the pro forma presentation. (b) Reflects pro forma interest expenses calculated assuming (i) a LIBOR rate of 3.0% plus a spread of 3.5% and 4.0% for the Tranche A Term Loan and Tranche B Term Loan portions of the new credit facility of Advance Stores Company, Incorporated ("ASCI"), respectively, (ii) a yield to maturity of 11.875% on the senior subordinated notes, which includes a cash interest component based on a coupon rate of 10 1/4%, and (iii) commitment fees on unused borrowings on the new credit facility using a rate of 0.5% per annum. The interest rates on the new credit facility are variable. A change in the rates of 1/8 of 1% on these borrowings would change the pro forma interest expense for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2000 and the Twelve Months Ended October 6, 2001 by $606 and for the Nine Months Ended October 6, 2001 by $466. (3) Estimated tax effects of the pro forma adjustments at a statutory rate of approximately 40%.

(2) The merger will be accounted for as a purchase in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, Business Combinations. The purchase price is being allocated first to the tangible assets and liabilities of Discount based upon preliminary estimates of their fair market values, assuming the merger had occurred on October 6, 2001, with the excess of the estimated fair market value of the net assets acquired over the purchase price allocated on a pro rata basis to reduce property and equipment and intangible assets for pro forma purposes, as follows: NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEET (amounts in thousand, except per share data) Components of purchase price: Cash to Discount shareholders (see note (1) above) ............................ $128,479 Advance Auto Parts common stock to Discount shareholders (4,309,970 shares valued at $24.60 per share)(a) ............................................. 106,025 Prepayment penalties associated with the extinguishment of Discount's existing long-term debt (see note (1) above) .................... 6,300 Accrual for Advance Auto Parts' obligation to purchase continuing insurance coverage for Discount's directors and officers for pre-merger time periods as required by the merger agreement (see note (6) below) .......... 700 Fair value of outstanding options to purchase 1,115,182 shares of Discount common stock that will be converted to options to purchase 574,765 shares of Advance Auto Parts common stock, valued at $1.92 per option (b) ............................................................. 1,104 Estimated acquisition related costs ........................................... 6,325 -------- Total purchase price ..................................................... 248,933 - -------- (a) Assumes a $13.84 per share value for Discount common stock (inclusive of $7.50 in cash) based on the historical trading value of Discount's common stock on and around the announcement date of the merger.

Advance Auto Parts is currently evaluating certain exit costs that may be incurred in connection with the merger and may establish additional reserves, not reflected in the accompanying pro forma consolidated financial data, at the closing of the merger based on the results of its evaluation. Any reserves established will result in a pro rata increase in property and equipment, resulting in additional provisions for depreciation expense. The final purchase price allocation will be based on the outcome of the matter referred to above, final determination of the fair values of the tangible and intangible assets acquired at the date of the merger as determined by appraisal or other methods, and actual amounts of assets and liabilities on the closing date. The final purchase price allocation may differ significantly from the pro forma allocation.
