Another Earnings Assessment

Another Earnings Assessment

Sales were $16.43B beating estimates by 7% and growing 34% year-over-year. Adjusted EPS was 55 cents beating estimates by 3.4% up from 52 cents in the same quarter in the previous year. Like other retail companies, the company faced higher costs on labor and other supply chain issues. However, the company managed the challenges quite well. Gross margins were up slightly. Fuel margins in North America were healthy due to higher fuel prices, but felt pressure in Europe due to higher costs and supply chain complications due to sanctions on Russia. Growth was good across all sectors. Considering the industry headwinds, it was a good quarter and the company is well positioned given its exposure to fuel prices, strong supply chain and global presence. We would be fine buying at these levels. We view ATD as a strong consumer staple name to own. At 15x earnings and 9x EV/EBITDA, the valuation is within the lower end of its recent history. Considering other consumer staples names, ATD is reasonably priced in our view. (5iResearch)
