Basis of Presentation:
|
The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company and include the accounts of Advance Auto Parts, Inc. ("Advance"), its wholly owned subsidiary, Advance Stores Company, Incorporated ("Advance Stores"), and its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company"). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position of the Company, the results of its operations and cash flows have been made.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, have been condensed or omitted based upon the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") interim reporting guidance. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for
Fiscal 2014
(filed with the SEC on
March 3, 2015
).
The accounting policies followed in the presentation of interim financial results are consistent with those followed on an annual basis. These policies are presented in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report.
The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full fiscal year. The first quarter of each of the Company's fiscal years contains 16 weeks. The Company's remaining three quarters consist of 12 weeks, with the exception of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014 which contained 13 weeks due to the 53-week fiscal year in 2014. The Company's next 53-week fiscal year is 2020.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Acquisition
On January 2, 2014, the Company acquired General Parts International, Inc. ("GPI") in an all cash transaction. GPI, formerly a privately-held company, is a leading distributor and supplier of original equipment and aftermarket replacement products for Commercial markets operating under the Carquest and Worldpac trade names. As of the acquisition date, GPI operated
1,223
Carquest stores and
103
Worldpac branches located in
45
states and Canada and serviced approximately
1,400
independently-owned Carquest stores.
The Company acquired all of GPI's assets and liabilities as a result of the transaction. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of GPI for a purchase price of
$2,080,804
(subject to adjustment for certain closing items) consisting of
$1,307,991
in cash to GPI's shareholders, the repayment of
$694,301
of GPI debt and
$78,512
in make-whole fees and transaction related expenses paid by the Company on GPI's behalf. The Company included the financial results of GPI in its consolidated financial statements commencing January 2, 2014.
Segment and Related Information
As of
April 25, 2015
, the Company's operations are comprised of
5,235
stores and
115
distribution branches, which operate in the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands primarily under the trade names “Advance Auto Parts,” "Carquest," "Autopart International" and "Worldpac." These locations offer a broad selection of brand name, original equipment manufacturer ("OEM") and proprietary automotive replacement parts, accessories, and maintenance items primarily for domestic and imported cars and light trucks. While the mix of do-it-yourself ("DIY") and do-it-for-me ("Commercial") customers varies among the four store brands, all of the locations serve customers through similar distribution channels. The

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)
Company has begun implementation of its plan to fully integrate the Carquest company-operated stores and overall operations into Advance Auto Parts by the end of fiscal 2017 and to eventually integrate the availability of all of the Company's product offerings throughout the entire chain.
The Company's Advance Auto Parts operations are comprised of five geographic areas which include the operations of the stores operating under the Advance Auto Parts, Carquest and Autopart International trade names. Each of the Advance Auto Parts geographic areas, in addition to Worldpac, are individually considered operating segments which are aggregated into one reportable segment. Effective in the first quarter of 2015, the Company expanded from three geographic areas, which previously comprised the Advance Auto Parts and Autopart International operations, to five geographic areas inclusive of the Carquest operations, such that Carquest is no longer a separate operating segment. Included in the Company's overall store operations are sales generated from its e-commerce platforms. The Company's e-commerce platforms, primarily consisting of its online websites and Commercial ordering platforms, are part of its integrated operating approach of serving its DIY and Commercial customers. The Company's online websites allow its DIY customers to pick up merchandise at a conveniently located store location or have their purchases shipped directly to them. The majority of the Company's online DIY sales are picked up at store locations. Through the Company's online ordering platforms, Commercial customers can conveniently place orders with a designated store location for delivery to their places of business or pick-up.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued Accounting Standards Updated, or ASU, 2015-3 "Interest - Imputation of Interest: Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs". ASU 2015-3 simplifies the presentation of debt issuance costs by requiring such costs be presented as a deduction from the corresponding debt liability. The guidance is effective for financial statements issued for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015 and interim periods within the reporting periods and requires retrospective presentation; earlier adoption is permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
In August 2014, the FASB, issued ASU 2014-15 “Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern." This new standard requires management to perform interim and annual assessments of an entity's ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date the financial statements are issued. An entity must provide certain disclosures if conditions or events raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern. This ASU is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods thereafter; earlier adoption is permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
In June 2014, the FASB, issued ASU 2014-12 “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period." The amendments in this ASU require that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015; earlier adoption is permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers." This ASU is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that expands disclosure requirements and requires a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. Public entities are currently required to adopt ASU 2014-09 during annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim reporting periods during the year of adoption; however, the FASB issued an exposure draft on April 29, 2015 that would defer the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year with public entities permitted to early adopt for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance on the Company's consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

(in thousands, except per share data)
(unaudited)
In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-08 "Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of Equity", which amends the definition of a discontinued operation in Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC, 205-20 and requires entities to provide additional disclosures about discontinued operations as well as disposal transactions that do not meet the discontinued operations criteria. The new guidance changes the definition of a discontinued operation and requires discontinued operations treatment for disposals of a component or group of components that represents a strategic shift that has or will have a major impact on an entity’s operations or financial results. The Company adopted this guidance effective January 4, 2015. The adoption of this guidance affects prospective presentation of disposals and did not have an impact on the Company's consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Inventories, net:
|
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. The Company used the LIFO method of accounting for approximately
89%
of inventories at
April 25, 2015
and
88%
of inventories at
January 3, 2015
. Under LIFO, the Company’s cost of sales reflects the costs of the most recently purchased inventories, while the inventory carrying balance represents the costs for inventories purchased in
Fiscal 2015
and prior years. As a result of utilizing LIFO, the Company recorded a decrease to cost of sales of
$16,531
and
$12,281
for the sixteen weeks ended
April 25, 2015
and
April 19, 2014
, respectively. The Company's overall costs to acquire inventory for the same or similar products have generally decreased historically as the Company has been able to leverage its continued growth, execution of merchandising strategies and realization of supply chain efficiencies.
An actual valuation of inventory under the LIFO method is performed by the Company at the end of each fiscal year based on the inventory levels and costs at that time. Accordingly, interim LIFO calculations are based on management’s estimates of expected fiscal year-end inventory levels and costs.
Inventory balances at
April 25, 2015
and
January 3, 2015
were as follows:

3. Exit Activities and Impairment:
Office Consolidations
In June 2014, the Company approved plans to relocate operations from its Minneapolis, Minnesota and Campbell, California offices to other existing offices of the Company, including its offices in Newark, California, Roanoke, Virginia and Raleigh, North Carolina, and to close its Minneapolis and Campbell offices. The Company is also relocating various functions between its existing offices in Roanoke and Raleigh. The Company anticipates that the relocations and office closings will be substantially completed by the middle of 2015.
In connection with these relocations and office closings, the Company plans to relocate some employees and terminate the employment of others. The Board of Directors of the Company approved this action in order to take advantage of synergies following the acquisition of GPI and to capitalize on the strength of existing locations and organizational experience. The Company estimates that it will incur restructuring costs of approximately
$28,800
under these plans through the end of 2015. Substantially all of these costs are expected to be cash expenditures. This estimate includes approximately
$11,200
of employee severance costs and
$17,600
of relocation costs.

Employees receiving severance/outplacement benefits will be required to render service until they are terminated in order to receive the benefits. Therefore, the severance/outplacement benefits will be recognized over the related service periods. During the
sixteen
weeks ended
April 25, 2015
the Company recognized
$2,007
of severance/outplacement benefits under these restructuring plans and other severance related to the acquisition of GPI. Other restructuring costs, including costs to relocate employees, will be recognized in the period in which the liability is incurred. During the
sixteen
weeks ended
April 25, 2015
the Company recognized
$1,854
of relocation costs.
Integration of Carquest stores
The Company also approved plans in June 2014 to begin consolidating its Carquest stores acquired on January 2, 2014. As of
April 25, 2015
,
110
Carquest stores had been consolidated into existing Advance Auto Parts stores and
13
Carquest stores had been converted to the Advance Auto Parts format. This includes the consolidation of
12
Carquest stores and conversion of
three
Carquest stores during the
sixteen
weeks ended
April 25, 2015
. Plans are in place to consolidate or convert the remaining Carquest stores by the middle of 2017. In addition, the Company will continue to consolidate or convert the remaining stores that were acquired with B.W.P. Distributors, Inc. ("BWP") on December 31, 2012 (which also operate under the Carquest trade name),
36
of which had been consolidated and
32
had been converted as of
April 25, 2015
.
Two
of these stores were consolidated during the
sixteen
weeks ended
April 25, 2015
. The Company estimates that the total exit costs to be incurred as a result of consolidations and conversions during Fiscal 2015 will be approximately
$8,000
, consisting primarily of closed store lease obligations. The company incurred
$2,733
of exit costs related to the consolidation of Carquest stores during the
sixteen
weeks ended
April 25, 2015
.
Contract termination costs, such as those associated with leases on closed stores will be recognized at the cease-use date. Closed lease liabilities include the present value of the remaining lease obligations and management’s estimate of future costs of insurance, property tax and common area maintenance (reduced by the present value of estimated revenues from subleases and lease buyouts).
Other Exit Activities
In August 2014, the Company approved plans to consolidate and convert its
40
Autoparts International ("AI") stores located in Florida into Advance Auto Parts stores. As of
April 25, 2015
, all of the AI consolidations and conversions were completed. During the
sixteen
weeks ended
April 25, 2015
, the Company incurred
$2,700
of exit costs associated with this plan.

Bank Debt
The Company has a credit agreement (the “2013 Credit Agreement”) which provides a
$700,000
unsecured term loan and a
$1,000,000
unsecured revolving credit facility with Advance Stores, as Borrower, the lenders party thereto, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent. The revolving credit facility also provides for the issuance of letters of credit with a sub-limit of
$300,000
and swingline loans in an amount not to exceed
$50,000
. The Company may request, subject to agreement by one or more lenders, that the total revolving commitment be increased by an amount not to exceed
$250,000
by those respective lenders (up to a total commitment of
$1,250,000
) during the term of the 2013 Credit Agreement. Voluntary prepayments and voluntary reductions of the revolving balance are permitted in whole or in part, at the Company’s option, in minimum principal amounts as specified in the 2013 Credit Agreement. Under the terms of the 2013 Credit Agreement the revolving credit facility terminates in December 2018 and the term loan matures in January 2019.
As of
April 25, 2015
, under the 2013 Credit Agreement, the Company had outstanding borrowings of
$66,700
under the revolver and
$490,000
under the term loan. As of
April 25, 2015
, the Company also had letters of credit outstanding of
$124,334
, which reduced the availability under the revolver to
$808,966
. The letters of credit generally have a term of one year or less and primarily serve as collateral for the Company’s self-insurance policies.
The interest rate on borrowings under the revolving credit facility is based, at the Company’s option, on adjusted LIBOR, plus a margin, or an alternate base rate, plus a margin. The current margin is
1.30%
and
0.30%
per annum for the adjusted LIBOR and alternate base rate borrowings, respectively. A facility fee is charged on the total amount of the revolving credit facility, payable in arrears. The current facility fee rate is
0.20%
per annum. Under the terms of the 2013 Credit Agreement, the interest rate and facility fee are subject to change based on the Company’s credit rating.
The interest rate on the term loan is based, at the Company’s option, on adjusted LIBOR, plus a margin, or an alternate base rate, plus a margin. The current margin is
1.50%
and
0.50%
per annum for the adjusted LIBOR and alternate base rate borrowings, respectively. Under the terms of the term loan, the interest rate is subject to change based on the Company’s credit rating.

The 2013 Credit Agreement contains customary covenants restricting the ability of: (a) subsidiaries of Advance Stores to, among other things, create, incur or assume additional debt; (b) Advance Stores and its subsidiaries to, among other things, (i) incur liens, (ii) make loans and investments, (iii) guarantee obligations, and (iv) change the nature of its business conducted by itself and its subsidiaries; (c) Advance, Advance Stores and their subsidiaries to, among other things (i) engage in certain mergers, acquisitions, asset sales and liquidations, (ii) enter into certain hedging arrangements, (iii) enter into restrictive agreements limiting its ability to incur liens on any of its property or assets, pay distributions, repay loans, or guarantee indebtedness of its subsidiaries, and (iv) engage in sale-leaseback transactions; and (d) Advance, among other things, to change its holding company status. Advance and Advance Stores are required to comply with financial covenants with respect to a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum consolidated coverage ratio. The 2013 Credit Agreement also provides for customary events of default, including non-payment defaults, covenant defaults and cross-defaults to Advance Stores’ other material indebtedness. The Company was in compliance with its covenants with respect to the 2013 Credit Agreement as of
April 25, 2015
and
January 3, 2015
.
Senior Unsecured Notes
The Company's
4.50%
senior unsecured notes were issued in December 2013 at
99.69%
of the principal amount of
$450,000
and are due December 1, 2023 (the “2023 Notes”). The 2023 Notes bear interest at a rate of
4.50%
per year payable semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year. The Company's
4.50%
senior unsecured notes were issued in January 2012 at
99.968%
of the principal amount of
$300,000
and are due January 15, 2022 (the “2022 Notes”). The 2022 Notes bear interest at a rate of
4.50%
per year payable semi-annually in arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each year. The Company’s
5.75%
senior unsecured notes were issued in April 2010 at
99.587%
of the principal amount of
$300,000
and are due May 1, 2020 (the “2020 Notes” or collectively with the 2023 Notes and the 2022 Notes, “the Notes”). The 2020 Notes bear interest at a rate of
5.75%
per year payable semi-annually in arrears on May 1 and November 1 of each year. Advance served as the issuer of the Notes with certain of Advance's domestic subsidiaries currently serving as subsidiary guarantors. The terms of the Notes are governed by an indenture (as amended, supplemented, waived or otherwise modified, the “Indenture”) among the Company, the subsidiary guarantors from time to time party thereto and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Trustee.
The Company may redeem some or all of the Notes at any time or from time to time, at the redemption price described in the Indenture. In addition, in the event of a Change of Control Triggering Event (as defined in the Indenture for the Notes), the Company will be required to offer to repurchase the Notes at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the repurchase date. The Notes are currently fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on an unsubordinated and unsecured basis by each of the subsidiary guarantors. The Company will be permitted to release guarantees without the consent of holders of the Notes under the circumstances described in the Indenture: (i) upon the release of the guarantee of the Company’s other debt that resulted in the affected subsidiary becoming a guarantor of this debt; (ii) upon the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the stock or assets of the subsidiary guarantor; or (iii) upon the Company’s exercise of its legal or covenant defeasance option.
The Indenture contains customary provisions for events of default including for: (i) failure to pay principal or interest when due and payable; (ii) failure to comply with covenants or agreements in the Indenture or the Notes and failure to cure or obtain a waiver of such default upon notice; (iii) a default under any debt for money borrowed by the Company or any of its subsidiaries that results in acceleration of the maturity of such debt, or failure to pay any such debt within any applicable grace period after final stated maturity, in an aggregate amount greater than
$25,000
without such debt having been discharged or acceleration having been rescinded or annulled within 10 days after receipt by the Company of notice of the default by the Trustee or holders of not less than
25%
in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding; and (iv) events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization affecting the Company and certain of its subsidiaries. In the case of an event of default, the principal amount of the Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest may be accelerated. The Indenture also contains covenants limiting the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to incur debt secured by liens and to enter into sale and lease-back transactions.
Debt Guarantees
The Company is a guarantor of loans made by banks to various independently-owned Carquest stores that are customers of the Company ("Independents") totaling
$30,957
as of
April 25, 2015
. The Company has concluded that some of these

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Sixteen Week Periods Ended April 25, 2015 and April 19, 2014
(in thousands, except per share data)
(unaudited)
guarantees meet the definition of a variable interest in a variable interest entity. However, the Company does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the economic performance of the Independents and therefore is not the primary beneficiary of these stores. Upon entering into a relationship with certain Independents, the Company guaranteed the debt of those stores to aid in the procurement of business loans. These loans are collateralized by security agreements on merchandise inventory and other assets of the borrowers. The approximate value of the inventory collateralized in these agreements is
$70,210
as of
April 25, 2015
. The Company believes that the likelihood of performance under these guarantees is remote, and any fair value attributable to these guarantees would be very minimal.
7. Fair Value Measurements:
The Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value are grouped in three levels. The levels prioritize the inputs used to measure the fair value of these assets or liabilities. These levels are:
|
•
|
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices that are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.
|
|
•
|
Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for assets and liabilities at the measurement date, either directly or indirectly. These inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are less active, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability or corroborated by other observable market data.
|
|
•
|
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for assets or liabilities that are not able to be corroborated by observable market data and reflect the use of a reporting entity’s own assumptions. These values are generally determined using pricing models for which the assumptions utilize management’s estimates of market participant assumptions.
|
The fair value hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available. In instances where inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the fair value measurement has been categorized based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Our assessment of the significance of a particular item to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, including the consideration of inputs specific to the asset or liability.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
During the
sixteen
weeks ended
April 25, 2015
, the Company had no significant assets or liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
The carrying amount of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, bank overdrafts, accounts payable, accrued expenses and the current portion of long term debt approximate their fair values due to the relatively short term nature of these instruments. The fair value of the Company’s senior unsecured notes was determined using Level 2 inputs based on quoted market prices, and the Company believes that the carrying value of its other long-term debt and certain long-term liabilities approximate fair value. The carrying value and fair value of the Company's long-term debt as of
April 25, 2015
and
January 3, 2015
, respectively, are as follows:

Non-Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis
Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis; that is, the assets and liabilities are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (e.g., when there is evidence of impairment). During the
sixteen
weeks ended
April 25, 2015
, the Company had no significant fair value measurements of non-financial assets or liabilities subsequent to initial recognition.

8. Stock Repurchases:
The Company’s stock repurchase program allows it to repurchase its common stock on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions from time to time in accordance with the requirements of the SEC. The Company's
$500,000
stock repurchase program in place as of
April 25, 2015
was authorized by its Board of Directors on May 14, 2012.
During the
sixteen
week period ended
April 25, 2015
the Company repurchased
no
shares of its common stock under its stock repurchase program. The Company had
$415,092
remaining under its stock repurchase program as of
April 25, 2015
.
The Company repurchased
10
shares of its common stock at an aggregate cost of
$1,590
, or an average price of
$158.21
per share, in connection with the net settlement of shares issued as a result of the vesting of restricted stock and restricted stock units during the
sixteen
weeks ended
April 25, 2015
.
9. Earnings per Share:
Certain of the Company’s shares granted to Team Members in the form of restricted stock and restricted stock units are considered participating securities which require the use of the two-class method for the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share. For the
sixteen
week periods ended
April 25, 2015
and
April 19, 2014
, earnings of
$534
and
$440
, respectively, were allocated to the participating securities.
Diluted earnings per share are calculated by including the effect of dilutive securities. Share-based awards to purchase approximately
7
and
19
shares of common stock that had an exercise price in excess of the average market price of the common stock during the
sixteen
week periods ended
April 25, 2015
and
April 19, 2014
, respectively, were not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share because they were anti-dilutive.
The following table illustrates the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the
sixteen
week periods ended
April 25, 2015
and
April 19, 2014

11. Condensed Consolidating Financial Statements:
Certain 100% wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries of Advance, including its Material Subsidiaries (as defined in the 2013 Credit Agreement) serve as guarantors of Advance's senior unsecured notes ("Guarantor Subsidiaries"). The subsidiary guarantees related to Advance's senior unsecured notes are full and unconditional and joint and several, and there are no restrictions on the ability of Advance to obtain funds from its Guarantor Subsidiaries. Certain of Advance's wholly-owned subsidiaries, including all of its foreign subsidiaries, do not serve as guarantors of Advance's senior unsecured notes ("Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries"). The Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries do not qualify as minor as defined by SEC regulations. Accordingly, the Company presents below the condensed consolidating financial information for the Guarantor Subsidiaries and Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries. Investments in subsidiaries of the Company are required to be presented under the equity method, even though all such subsidiaries meet the requirements to be consolidated under GAAP.
Set forth below are condensed consolidating financial statements presenting the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of (i) Advance, (ii) the Guarantor Subsidiaries, (iii) the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries, and (iv) the eliminations necessary to arrive at consolidated information for the Company. The statement of operations eliminations relate primarily to the sale of inventory from a Non-Guarantor Subsidiary to a Guarantor Subsidiary. The balance sheet eliminations relate primarily to the elimination of intercompany receivables and payables and subsidiary investment accounts.
The following tables present condensed consolidating balance sheets as of
April 25, 2015
and
January 3, 2015
and condensed consolidating statements of operations, comprehensive income and cash flows for the
sixteen
weeks ended
April 25, 2015
and
April 19, 2014
, and should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements herein.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
|
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes to those statements that appear elsewhere in this report. Our first quarter consists of 16 weeks divided into four equal periods. Our remaining three quarters consist of 12 weeks with each quarter divided into three equal periods, with the exception of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014 which contained 13 weeks due to our 53-week fiscal year in 2014. Our next 53-week fiscal year is 2020. Unless the context otherwise requires, "Advance," "we," "us," "our," and similar terms refer to Advance Auto Parts, Inc., its predecessor, its subsidiaries and their respective operations.
Certain statements in this report are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Forward-looking statements are usually identified by the use of words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “intend,” “likely,” “may,” “plan,” “position,” “possible,” “potential,” “probable,” “project,” “projection,” “should,” “strategy,” “will,” or similar expressions. We intend for any forward-looking statements to be covered by, and we claim the protection under, the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
These forward-looking statements are based upon assessments and assumptions of management in light of historical results and trends, current conditions and potential future developments that often involve judgments, estimates, assumptions and projections. Forward-looking statements reflect current views about our plans, strategies and prospects, which are based on information currently available.
Although we believe that our plans, intentions and expectations as reflected in or suggested by any forward-looking statements are reasonable, we do not guarantee or give assurance that such plans, intentions or expectations will be achieved. Actual results may differ materially from our anticipated results described or implied in our forward-looking statements, and such differences may be due to a variety of factors. Our business could also be affected by additional factors that are presently unknown to us or that we currently believe to be immaterial to our business.
Listed below and discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
January 3, 2015
(filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, on
March 3, 2015
), which we refer to as our
2014
Form 10-K, are some important risks, uncertainties and contingencies which could cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any forward-looking statements made or implied in this report. These include, but are not limited to, the following:
|
•
|
a decrease in demand for our products;
|
|
•
|
competitive pricing and other competitive pressures;
|
|
•
|
the risk that the anticipated benefits of the acquisition of General Parts International, Inc. (“GPI”), including synergies, may not be fully realized or may take longer to realize than expected, that we may experience difficulty integrating GPI’s operations into our operations, or that management's attention may be diverted from our other businesses in association with the acquisition of GPI;
|
|
•
|
the possibility that the acquisition of GPI may not advance our business strategy or prove to be an accretive investment or may impact third-party relationships, including customers, wholesalers, independently-owned and jobber stores and suppliers;
|
|
•
|
the risk that the additional indebtedness from the new financing agreements in association with the acquisition of GPI may limit our operating flexibility or otherwise strain our liquidity and financial condition;
|
|
•
|
the risk that we may experience difficulty retaining key GPI employees;
|
|
•
|
our ability to implement our business strategy;
|
|
•
|
our ability to expand our business, including the location of available and suitable real estate for new store locations, the integration of any acquired businesses and the continued increase in supply chain capacity and efficiency;
|
|
•
|
our dependence on our suppliers to provide us with products that comply with safety and quality standards;
|
|
•
|
our ability to attract and retain qualified employees, or Team Members;
|
|
•
|
the potential for fluctuations in the market price of our common stock and the resulting exposure to securities class action litigations;
|
|
•
|
deterioration in general macro-economic conditions, including unemployment, inflation or deflation, consumer debt levels, high fuel and energy costs, higher tax rates or uncertain credit markets;
|
24
|
•
|
regulatory and legal risks, including being named as a defendant in administrative investigations or litigation, and the incurrence of legal fees and costs, the payment of fines or the payment of sums to settle litigation cases or administrative investigations or proceedings;
|
|
•
|
a security breach or other cyber security incident;
|
|
•
|
business interruptions due to the occurrence of natural disasters, extended periods of unfavorable weather, computer system malfunction, wars or acts of terrorism; and
|
|
•
|
the impact of global climate change or legal and regulatory responses to such change.
|
We assume no obligations to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. In evaluating forward-looking statements, you should consider these risks and uncertainties, together with the other risks described from time to time in our other reports and documents filed with the SEC and you should not place undue reliance on those statements.
Introduction
We are the largest automotive aftermarket parts provider in North America, serving both "do-it-for me", or Commercial, and "do-it-yourself", or DIY, customers in the automotive aftermarket. As of
April 25, 2015
, we operated a total of
5,235
stores and
115
distribution branches. We operated primarily within the United States, with additional locations in Canada, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Our stores operate primarily under the trade names "Advance Auto Parts," "Autopart International" and "Carquest," and our distribution branches operate under the "Worldpac" trade name. In addition, we serve approximately
1,300
independently-owned Carquest stores.
Our stores and branches offer a broad selection of brand name, original equipment manufacturer ("OEM") and private label automotive replacement parts, accessories, batteries and maintenance items for domestic and imported cars, vans, sport utility vehicles and light and heavy duty trucks. Through our integrated operating approach, we serve our Commercial and DIY customers from our store locations and online at www.AdvanceAutoParts.com, www.Carquest.com and www.Worldpac.com. Our DIY customers can elect to pick up merchandise ordered online at a conveniently located store or have their purchases shipped directly to them. Our Commercial customers consist primarily of delivery customers for whom we deliver products from our store and branch locations to our Commercial customers’ places of business, including independent garages, service stations and auto dealers. Our Commercial customers can conveniently place their orders online.
Management Overview
We generated diluted earnings per share, or diluted EPS, of
$2.00
during our
sixteen
weeks ended
April 25, 2015
(or the
first
quarter of
Fiscal 2015
) compared to
$2.01
for the comparable period of Fiscal
2014
. The decrease in our diluted EPS was driven primarily by integration costs associated with the ongoing integration of GPI and other store consolidation expenses partially offset by modest sales growth and profitability rate expansion, excluding the integration and consolidation expenses. When adjusted for the following comparable adjustments, our comparable earnings per diluted share ("Comparable Cash EPS") was $2.39 during the first quarter of Fiscal 2015 compared to $2.25 during the comparable period of Fiscal 2014:

Our comparable store sales increased
0.7%
compared to the
first
quarter of Fiscal
2014
driven by modest growth in our Commercial sales partially offset by a slight decrease in our DIY sales. Despite a continued favorable outlook in the automotive aftermarket industry, our sales growth was negatively impacted by periods of severe weather in our Northeastern and Great Lakes markets and integration disruptions as we entered into the more complex phase of our integration of GPI. During the first quarter, we began or completed a number of critical integration steps including - (i) integration of our Advance Auto ("AAP") and Carquest ("CQUS") field organizations, (ii) product and brand conversions and (iii) alignment of pricing. While we had planned for a degree of disruption, the sales impact was more than we had anticipated. Areas of business not impacted by the integration performed significantly better, including our Worldpac and Carquest Canada businesses and a number of regions in our AAP and CQUS business.

Summary of
First
Quarter Financial Results
A high-level summary of our financial results for the
first
quarter of
Fiscal 2015
is included below:
|
•
|
Total sales during the
first
quarter of
Fiscal 2015
were
$3,038.2 million
, an increase of
2.3%
as compared to the
first
quarter of Fiscal
2014
. This increase was primarily driven by a comparable store sales increase of
0.7%
and new stores opened during the past 12 months.
|
|
•
|
Our operating income for the
first
quarter of
Fiscal 2015
was
$262.5 million
, an increase of
$6.7 million
from the comparable period of Fiscal
2014
. As a percentage of total sales, operating income was
8.6%
, or approximately flat to the comparable period of Fiscal
2014
, inclusive of the integration expenses.
|
|
•
|
Our inventory balance as of
April 25, 2015
increased
$167.8 million
, or
4.3%
, over our inventory balance as of
January 3, 2015
, driven mainly by inventory upgrades and new stores and branches.
|
|
•
|
We generated operating cash flow of
$102.2 million
during the
sixteen
weeks ended
April 25, 2015
, an increase of
26.0%
from the comparable period in Fiscal
2014
, primarily due to fluctuations in accrued expenses and other assets due to the timing of payments. This was partially offset by inventory growth, net of accounts payable.
|
Refer to the
"Results of Operations"
and "
Liquidity and Capital Resources"
sections for further details of our income statement and cash flow results, respectively.
Business and Industry Update
In 2015, we have two essential priorities - (i) deliver base business results by executing under our key strategies of Superior Availability and Service Leadership and (ii) successfully achieve the goals of the multi-year GPI integration plan. Our key strategies remain consistent with 2014. Superior Availability is aimed at product availability and maximizing the speed, reliability and efficiency of our supply chain. Service Leadership leverages our product availability in addition to more consistent execution of customer-facing initiatives to strengthen our integrated operating approach of serving our customers in our stores and on-line. Through these two key strategies and the integration of GPI, we believe we can continue to build on the initiatives discussed below to produce favorable financial results over the long term. Sales to Commercial customers remain the biggest opportunity for us to increase our overall market share in the automotive aftermarket industry. Our Commercial sales, as a percentage of total sales, increased to
57%
for the
first
quarter of
Fiscal 2015
compared to
56%
for the same period in Fiscal
2014
.
We continue to make progress in our strategic priorities, which include:
|
•
|
Growing our Commercial business by meeting customers' needs through our family of store names and brands, increased volume with national and regional accounts, growth in our banner programs in our AAP and CQUS stores, and ongoing GPI integration and store consolidations/conversions;
|
|
•
|
Improving localized parts availability through the continued increase in the number of our larger HUB stores, cross- sourcing network between store brands, and leveraging the advancement of our supply chain infrastructure, including increase in stores receiving daily deliveries from our distribution centers and the late 2014 opening of our Hartford, CT distribution center;
|
|
•
|
Maintaining a steady new store growth rate including new markets utilizing both Advance Auto Parts and Carquest brands and renewed emphasis and investment in our DIY business, including the roll-out of our Speedperks loyalty program and other new marketing programs; and
|
|
•
|
Continuing our focus on store execution through more effective scheduling, increased productivity and simplification, improved product on-hand accuracy, expanded sales training and continued measurement of customer satisfaction.
|
As referenced earlier, we began the more complex phase of our GPI integration plan during the first quarter. We previously made good progress with the initial phases of our integration plan in Fiscal 2014, which included (i) realigning our store support centers ("SSC"), (ii) completing negotiations with vendors, (iii) developing cross-sourcing networks between all of our stores and branches and (iv) completing the first 110 AAP/CQUS consolidations and conversions. Beginning in late 2014 and into early 2015, we moved into the more operational phase of the integration including - (i) integration of our AAP/CQUS field organizations, (ii) product and brand conversions and (iii) alignment of pricing. These critical steps of the integration plan heavily impact virtually all of our team members throughout the SSC, supply chain teams and stores as well as many of our Commercial customers who are supported by these teams. While there will be multiple periods of significant change during the integration, we believe we are taking the rights steps to minimize the learning curves of change and begin to move forward with less disruption to our business compared to what we experienced in the first quarter.
26
The automotive aftermarket industry is influenced by a number of general macroeconomic factors similar to those affecting the overall retail and distribution industry. These factors include, but are not limited to, fuel costs, unemployment rates, consumer confidence and spending habits, and competition. We believe the two key drivers of demand within the automotive aftermarket are (i) the number of miles driven and (ii) the number and average age of vehicles on the road.
Favorable industry dynamics include:
|
•
|
an increase in the number of vehicles and stabilization of the average age of vehicles;
|
|
•
|
a long-term expectation that miles driven will continue to increase based on historical trends; and
|
|
•
|
a steadily improving job market and lower fuel prices.
|
Conversely, the factors negatively affecting the automotive aftermarket industry include:
|
•
|
deferral of elective automotive maintenance in the near term as more consumers contemplate new automobile purchases; and
|
|
•
|
longer maintenance and part failure intervals on newer cars due to improved quality.
|
We remain encouraged by the (i) stability of the automotive aftermarket industry and (ii) initiatives that we have underway to support our base business and integration strategies.
Store Development
We serve our Commercial and DIY customers in a similar fashion through four different store brands. The table below sets forth detail of our store development activity for the
sixteen
weeks ended
April 25, 2015
, including the consolidation and conversion of stores as part of our integration plans, and the number of locations with Commercial delivery programs. During
Fiscal 2015
, we anticipate adding approximately
100 to 120
new stores and branches.

Critical Accounting Policies
Our financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations are based on these financial statements. The preparation of these financial statements requires the application of accounting policies in addition to certain estimates and judgments by our management. Our estimates and judgments are based on currently available information, historical results and other assumptions we believe are reasonable. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. During the
sixteen
weeks ended
April 25, 2015
, we consistently applied the critical accounting policies discussed in our
2014
Form 10-K. For a complete discussion regarding these critical accounting policies, refer to the
2014
Form 10-K.
Components of Statement of Operations
Net Sales
Net sales consist primarily of merchandise sales from our store and branch locations to both our Commercial and DIY customers, sales from our e-commerce websites and sales to independently-owned Carquest stores. Sales are recorded net of discounts and rebates, sales taxes and estimated returns and allowances. Our total sales growth is comprised of both comparable store sales and new store sales. We calculate comparable store sales based on the change in store sales starting once a store has been open for 13 complete accounting periods (approximately one year) and by including e-commerce sales. Sales to independently-owned Carquest stores are excluded from our comparable store sales. We include sales from relocated stores in comparable store sales from the original date of opening. Acquired stores are included in our comparable store sales once the stores have completed 13 complete accounting periods following the acquisition date (approximately one year).
Cost of Sales
Our cost of sales consists of merchandise costs, net of incentives under vendor programs; inventory shrinkage, defective merchandise and warranty costs; and warehouse and distribution expenses, including depreciation and amortization. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales may be affected by (i) variations in our product mix, (ii) price changes in response to competitive factors and fluctuations in merchandise costs, (iii) vendor programs, (iv) inventory shrinkage, (v) defective merchandise and warranty costs and (vi) warehouse and distribution costs. We seek to minimize fluctuations in merchandise costs and instability of supply by entering into long-term purchasing agreements, without minimum purchase volume requirements, when we believe it is advantageous. Our cost of sales and gross profit rates may not be comparable to that of our competitors due to differences in industry practice regarding the classification of certain costs and mix of Commercial and DIY sales.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
SG&A expenses consist of store payroll, store occupancy (including rent and depreciation), advertising expenses, acquisition and integration related expenses, Commercial delivery expenses, other store expenses and general and administrative expenses, including salaries and related benefits of store support center Team Members, share-based compensation expenses, store support center administrative office expenses, data processing, professional expenses, self-insurance costs, depreciation and amortization, closed store expense and impairment charges, if any, and other related expenses.

Sixteen Week Periods Ended
April 25, 2015
Compared to
Sixteen Week Periods Ended
April 19, 2014
Net Sales
Net sales for the
sixteen
weeks ended
April 25, 2015
were
$3,038.2 million
, an increase of
$68.7 million
, or
2.3%
, as compared to net sales for the
sixteen
weeks ended
April 19, 2014
. The sales increase was primarily due to our comparable store sales increase of
0.7%
and the addition of
127
stores, net of closed stores, and
10
new branches. Our comparable store sales increase was driven by modest growth in our Commercial sales partially offset by a slight decrease in our DIY sales. Despite a continued favorable outlook in the automotive aftermarket industry, our sales and customer traffic were negatively impacted by periods of severe weather in our Northeastern and Great Lakes markets and integration disruptions as we entered into the more complex phases of our integration of GPI.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the
sixteen
weeks ended
April 25, 2015
was
$1,393.9 million
, or
45.9%
of net sales, as compared to
$1,353.1 million
, or
45.6%
of net sales, for the comparable period of last year, representing an increase of
31
basis points. The
31
basis-point increase in gross profit rate was driven primarily by merchandise costs synergies partially offset by the costs from our new Hartford, CT distribution center opened in late 2014.
SG&A
SG&A expenses for the
sixteen
weeks ended
April 25, 2015
were
$1,131.4 million
, or
37.2%
of net sales, as compared to
$1,097.3 million
, or
37.0%
of net sales, for the comparable period of last year, representing an increase of
29
basis points. This increase as a percentage of net sales was primarily due to an increase in GPI integration and store consolidation expenses and higher advertising expenses partially offset by GPI integration cost synergies and lower incentive compensation.
Operating Income
Operating income for the
sixteen
weeks ended
April 25, 2015
was
$262.5 million
, or
8.6%
of net sales, as compared to
$255.8 million
, or
8.6%
of net sales, for the comparable period of last year. The rate is reflective of an increase in our gross profit rate, offset by an unfavorable change in our SG&A rate from the comparable period of Fiscal
2014
. These changes on a rate basis were due to the gross profit and SG&A drivers previously discussed.
29
Interest Expense
Interest expense for the
sixteen
weeks ended
April 25, 2015
was
$21.8 million
, or
0.7%
of net sales, as compared to
$23.6 million
, or
0.8%
of net sales, for the comparable period in Fiscal
2014
. The decrease in interest expense is due to repayments made on our credit facility over the last year.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense for the
sixteen
weeks ended
April 25, 2015
was
$90.7 million
, as compared to
$85.0 million
for the comparable period of Fiscal
2014
. Our effective income tax rate was
38.0%
and
36.5%
for the
sixteen
weeks ended
April 25, 2015
and
April 19, 2014
, respectively. The lower rate for the
sixteen
weeks ended
April 19, 2014
was due to a favorable state tax settlement during the quarter.
Net Income
Net income for the
sixteen
weeks ended
April 25, 2015
was
$148.1 million
, or
$2.00
per diluted share, as compared to
$147.7 million
, or
$2.01
per diluted share, for the comparable period of Fiscal
2014
. As a percentage of net sales, net income for the
sixteen
weeks ended
April 25, 2015
was
4.9%
, as compared to
5.0%
for the comparable period of Fiscal
2014
. Negatively impacting diluted EPS and net income in the
first
quarter of Fiscal 2015 and Fiscal
2014
were GPI integration and store consolidation expenses and amortization of intangible assets related to the GPI acquisition of
$45.8
million and
$28.6
million, respectively, or
$0.39
and
$0.24
per diluted share, respectively.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
"Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations"
include certain financial measures not derived in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Non-GAAP financial measures should not be used as a substitute for GAAP financial measures, or considered in isolation, for the purpose of analyzing our operating performance, financial position or cash flows. However, we have presented the non-GAAP financial measures, as we believe the reporting of financial results on a non-GAAP basis to remain comparable is important in assessing the overall performance of the business and is therefore useful to investors and prospective investors. We believe that the presentation of financial results that exclude non-cash charges related to the acquired GPI intangibles and expenses associated with the integration of GPI provide meaningful supplemental information to both management and investors, which is indicative of our base operations. We have included a reconciliation of this information to the most comparable GAAP measures in the following table.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
Our primary cash requirements to maintain our current operations include payroll and benefits, the purchase of inventory, contractual obligations, capital expenditures and the payment of income taxes. In addition, we have used available funds for acquisitions, to repay borrowings under our credit agreement, to periodically repurchase shares of our common stock under our stock repurchase programs and for the payment of quarterly cash dividends. We have funded these requirements primarily through cash generated from operations, supplemented by borrowings under our credit facilities and notes offerings as needed. We believe funds generated from our expected results of operations, available cash and cash equivalents, and available borrowing under our credit facility will be sufficient to fund our primary obligations for the next fiscal year. Cash holdings in our foreign affiliates are not significant relative to our overall operations and therefore would not restrict our liquidity needs for our domestic operations.
At
April 25, 2015
, our cash and cash equivalents balance was
$123.8 million
, an increase of
$19.2 million
compared to
January 3, 2015
(the end of Fiscal
2014
). This increase in cash during the
sixteen
weeks ended
April 25, 2015
was primarily a result of cash generated by operating activities, net of capital expenditures, debt repayments and dividends. Additional discussion of our cash flow results, including the comparison of the activity for the
sixteen
weeks ended
April 25, 2015
to the comparable period of Fiscal
2014
, is set forth in the
Analysis of Cash Flows
section.
As of
April 25, 2015
, our outstanding indebtedness was
$1,610.3 million
, or
$26.6 million
lower when compared to
January 3, 2015
, as a result of repayments on our credit facility. Additionally, we had
$124.3 million
in letters of credit outstanding, which reduced the available borrowings on our revolver to
$809.0 million
as of
April 25, 2015
. The letters of credit generally have a term of one year or less and primarily serve as collateral for our self-insurance policies.
GPI Integration and Exit Activities
We expect to incur approximately
$80.0 million
of GPI integration and store consolidation costs in
Fiscal 2015
. We expect these integration costs to be more than offset by by savings from acquisition synergies which are expected to increase to an annualized run-rate of
$160.0 million
by the end of 2016. During the first quarter of 2015, we incurred
$32.7 million
of GPI integration and store consolidation costs offset by approximately
$32.0 million
of synergies.
Capital Expenditures
Our primary capital requirements have been the funding of our new store development (leased and owned locations), maintenance of existing stores and investments under our Superior Availability and Service Leadership strategies, including supply chain and information technology. We lease approximately
85%
of our stores. Our capital expenditures were
$57.0
million for the
sixteen
weeks ended
April 25, 2015
.
Our future capital requirements will depend in large part on the number of and timing of new stores we open within a given year and the investments we make in existing stores, information technology, supply chain network and the integration of GPI. We anticipate that our capital expenditures in
Fiscal 2015
will be approximately
$325.0 million to $340.0 million
. These investments will primarily include GPI integration expenditures for store conversions and supply chain and systems integration activities; new store development (leased and owned locations); and investments in our existing stores, supply chain network and systems. During the
sixteen
weeks ended
April 25, 2015
, we opened
21
stores and
four
Worldpac branches compared to
20
stores and
two
branches during the comparable period of last year. We anticipate opening between
100 to 120
stores and branches during Fiscal
2015
.
Stock Repurchases
Our stock repurchase program allows us to repurchase our common stock on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions from time to time in accordance with the requirements of the SEC. Our
$500 million
stock repurchase program in place as of
April 25, 2015
was authorized by our Board of Directors on May 14, 2012. During the
sixteen
weeks ended
April 25, 2015
, we repurchased
no
shares of our common stock under our stock repurchase program. At
April 25, 2015
, we had
$415.1 million
remaining under our stock repurchase program.
32
Dividend
Since Fiscal 2006, our Board of Directors has declared quarterly dividends of
$0.06
per share to stockholders of record. On
May 20, 2015
, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of
$0.06
per share to be paid on
July 2, 2015
to all common stockholders of record as of
June 19, 2015
.

Operating Activities
For the
sixteen
weeks ended
April 25, 2015
, net cash provided by operating activities increased by
$21.1 million
compared to the comparable period of
2014
to
$102.2 million
. The net increase in operating cash flow compared to the prior year was primarily driven by an increase in cash flows from accrued expenses and other assets related to the timing of payroll and tax payments. This was partially offset by an increase in inventory, net of accounts payable. Our inventory growth was driven by increased inventory assortment and new stores and branches.
Investing Activities
For the
sixteen
weeks ended
April 25, 2015
, net cash used in investing activities decreased by
$2,060.3 million
to
$57.2 million
compared to the comparable period of
2014
. The decrease in cash used in investing activities was driven by cash used in the acquisition of GPI in the prior year.
Financing Activities
For the
sixteen
weeks ended
April 25, 2015
, net cash used in financing activities was
$25.3 million
, as compared to net cash provided by financing activities of
$1,007.6 million
for the
sixteen
weeks ended
April 19, 2014
, a decrease of
$1,032.9 million
. This decrease was primarily a result of net borrowings under our credit facility during the
sixteen
weeks ended
April 19, 2014
of $
1,019.0 million
associated with the acquisition of GPI. As of
April 25, 2015
, the outstanding amount under our credit facility was
$556.7 million
. We remain focused on reducing our leverage ratio and maintaining our investment grade ratings and expect to continue paying down this balance during
2015
.
Long-Term Debt
Bank Debt
We have a credit agreement (the "2013 Credit Agreement") which provides a
$700.0 million
unsecured term loan and a
$1.0 billion
unsecured revolving credit facility with Advance Stores Company, Inc. ("Advance Stores"), as Borrower, the lenders party thereto, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent. The revolving credit facility also provides for the issuance of letters of credit with a sub-limit of
$300.0 million
and swingline loans in an amount not to exceed
$50.0 million
. We may request, subject to agreement by one or more lenders, that the total revolving commitment be increased by an amount not to exceed
$250.0 million
by those respective lenders (up to a total commitment of
$1.25 billion
) during the term of the 2013 Credit Agreement. Voluntary prepayments and voluntary reductions of the revolving balance are permitted in whole or in part, at our option, in minimum principal amounts as specified in the 2013 Credit Agreement. Under the terms of the 2013 Credit Agreement, the revolving credit facility terminates in December 2018 and the term loan matures in January 2019.
33
As of
April 25, 2015
, under the 2013 Credit Agreement, we had outstanding borrowings of
$66.7 million
under the revolver and
$490.0 million
under the term loan. As of
April 25, 2015
, we also had letters of credit outstanding of
$124.3 million
, which reduced the availability under the revolver to
$809.0 million
. The letters of credit generally have a term of one year or less and primarily serve as collateral for our self-insurance policies.
The interest rate on borrowings under the revolving credit facility is based, at our option, on adjusted LIBOR, plus a margin, or an alternate base rate, plus a margin. The current margin is
1.30%
and
0.30%
per annum for the adjusted LIBOR and alternate base rate borrowings, respectively. A facility fee is charged on the total amount of the revolving credit facility, payable in arrears. The current facility fee rate is
0.20%
per annum. Under the terms of the 2013 Credit Agreement, the interest rate and facility fee are subject to change based on our credit rating.
The interest rate on the term loan is based, at our option, on adjusted LIBOR, plus a margin, or an alternate base rate, plus a margin. The current margin is
1.50%
and
0.50%
per annum for the adjusted LIBOR and alternate base rate borrowings, respectively. Under the terms of the term loan, the interest rate is subject to change based on our credit rating.
The 2013 Credit Agreement contains customary restrictive covenants, which include a maximum leverage ratio and minimum consolidated coverage ratio, and are further described in Note 6,
Long-term Debt
, in this Form 10-Q. We were in compliance with our covenants with respect to the 2013 Credit Agreement at
April 25, 2015
.
Senior Unsecured Notes
At
April 25, 2015
our outstanding senior unsecured notes consisted of i)
$450 million
of
4.50%
notes maturing in December 2023 (the “2023 Notes”); ii)
$300 million
of
4.50%
notes maturing in January 2022 (the “2022 Notes”); and iii)
$300 million
of
5.75%
notes maturing in May 2020 (the “2020 Notes” or collectively with the 2023 Notes and 2022 Notes, “the Notes”). The 2023 Notes bear interest at a rate of
4.50%
per year payable semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year. The 2022 Notes bear interest at a rate of
4.50%
per year payable semi-annually in arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each year. The 2020 Notes bear interest at a rate of
5.75%
per year payable semi-annually in arrears on May 1 and November 1 of each year.
Advance served as the issuer of the Notes with certain of Advance's domestic subsidiaries currently serving as subsidiary guarantors. The terms of the Notes are governed by an indenture (as amended, supplemented, waived or otherwise modified, the “Indenture”) among us, the subsidiary guarantors from time to time party thereto and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Trustee. The terms of the Indenture are further described in Note 6,
Long-term Debt
, in this Form 10-Q.
As of
April 25, 2015
, we had a credit rating from Standard & Poor’s of BBB- and from Moody’s Investor Service of Baa3. The current outlooks by Standard & Poor’s and Moody’s are both stable. The current pricing grid used to determine our borrowing rate under our revolving credit facility is based on our credit ratings. If these credit ratings decline, our interest rate on outstanding balances may increase and our access to additional financing on favorable terms may become more limited. In addition, it could reduce the attractiveness of our vendor payment program, where certain of our vendors finance payment obligations from us with designated third party financial institutions, which could result in increased working capital requirements. Conversely, if these credit ratings improve, our interest rate may decrease.
Off-Balance-Sheet Arrangements
We guarantee loans made by banks to various of our independent store customers totaling
$31.0 million
as of
April 25, 2015
. These loans are collateralized by security agreements on merchandise inventory and other assets of the borrowers. We believe the likelihood of performance under these guarantees is remote and that the fair value of these guarantees is very minimal. As of
April 25, 2015
, we had no other off-balance-sheet arrangements as defined in Regulation S-K Item 303 of the SEC regulations. We include other off-balance-sheet arrangements in our contractual obligations table in our
2014
Form 10-K, including operating lease payments, interest payments on our Notes and revolving credit facility and letters of credit outstanding.
Contractual Obligations
As of
April 25, 2015
, there were no material changes to our outstanding contractual obligations as compared to our contractual obligations outstanding as of
January 3, 2015
. For additional information regarding our contractual obligations see “Contractual Obligations” in our
2014
Form 10-K.
34
Seasonality
Our business is somewhat seasonal in nature, with the highest sales usually occurring in the spring and summer months.
In addition, our business can be affected by weather conditions. While unusually heavy precipitation tends to soften sales as elective maintenance is deferred during such periods, extremely hot or cold weather tends to enhance sales by causing automotive parts to fail at an accelerated rate. Our fourth quarter is generally our most volatile as weather and spending trade-offs typically influence our Commercial and DIY sales.
New Accounting Pronouncements
For a description of recently announced accounting standards, including the expected dates of adoption and estimated effects, if any, on our condensed consolidated financial statements, see
New Accounting Pronouncements
in Note 1 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Internet Address and Access to SEC Filings
Our Internet address is www.AdvanceAutoParts.com. We make available free of charge through our Internet website our annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as soon as reasonably practicable after we electronically file such materials with, or furnish them to, the SEC. The SEC maintains a website that contains reports, proxy statements and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC. These materials may be obtained electronically by accessing the SEC's website at
www.sec.gov.
Interest Rate Risk
Our primary financial market risk is due to changes in interest rates. Historically, we have reduced our exposure to changes in interest rates by entering into various interest rate hedge instruments such as interest rate swap contracts and treasury lock agreements. We have historically utilized interest rate swaps to convert variable rate debt to fixed rate debt and to lock in fixed rates on future debt issuances. Our interest rate hedge instruments have been designated as cash flow hedges. We had no derivative instruments outstanding as of
April 25, 2015
.
The interest rates on borrowings under our revolving credit facility and term loan are based, at our option, on adjusted LIBOR, plus a margin, or an alternate base rate, plus a margin. As of
April 25, 2015
we had
$66.7 million
of borrowings outstanding under our revolving credit facility and
$490.0 million
outstanding under our term loan and are therefore exposed to interest rate risk due to changes in LIBOR or alternate base rate. There is no interest rate risk associated with our 2020, 2022 or 2023 Notes, as the interest rates are fixed at
5.75%
,
4.50%
and
4.50%
, respectively, per annum.
The table below presents principal cash flows and related weighted average interest rates on our revolving credit facility and term loan outstanding at
April 25, 2015
, by expected maturity dates. Weighted average variable rates are based on implied forward rates in the yield curve at
April 25, 2015
. Implied forward rates should not be considered a predictor of actual future interest rates.

Credit Risk
Our financial assets that are exposed to credit risk consist primarily of trade accounts receivable and vendor receivables. We are exposed to normal credit risk from customers. Our concentration of credit risk is limited because our customer base consists of a large number of customers with relatively small balances, which allows the credit risk to be spread across a broad
35
base. We strive to maintain a close working relationship with our vendors and frequently monitor their financial strength. We have not historically had significant credit losses.
