Earnings Preview · Reports 09-22 Pre-market

AutoZone Earnings Preview: Focus on Whether Gross Margin Can Rebound Above 52%

Whether gross margin can rebound from 52.2%, and whether LIFO impact fades
Whether commercial channel growth continues to accelerate, up 14.5% year-over-year last quarter
Whether expense ratio and inventory continue to rise together, watch for earnings pressure

Market expects EPS of $54.80, but the company did not provide guidance last quarter, so no consensus revenue estimate is available.

Average move of ±2.0% after the past 6 earnings reports, with 4 gains (67%), and the most recent decline of 2.3%.

Watch out for：If expense ratio and inventory continue to rise, they may further squeeze profit margins.

The View in One Line

FY25Q2 revenue up 2.4% but EPS fell to $28.29, expense ratio rose, earnings read-through Neutral, no upward catalyst.
