O'Reilly Automotive will publish its fourth quarter and full-year 2025 results after 3:30 p.m. Central Time on Wednesday, February 4, 2026. Investors can access the release on the company’s website under "Investor Relations." A conference call to discuss the results is scheduled for Thursday, February 5, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. Central Time. Analysts and shareholders may join the call via webcast or by dialing (888) 506-0062 with conference ID 873967. A replay will remain available online through February 4, 2027.

O'Reilly enters 2026 with a network of 6,538 stores across 48 states, Puerto Rico, Mexico and Canada, having added 200 to 210 net new locations in 2025. Management forecasts opening approximately 230 net new stores in 2026, leveraging a fragmented aftermarket parts market. The company also enters its 34th year of positive same-store sales growth, extending a streak of 33 consecutive years of like-for-like revenue increases in its retail network.

Between fiscal 2014 and 2024, O'Reilly's net income grew at a compound annual rate of 11.9%. Robust free cash flow has funded an aggressive capital allocation strategy: in the first nine months of 2025, the company repurchased $1.6 billion of its common stock, reducing diluted shares outstanding by 44% over the past decade. Management has indicated that share buybacks will remain a key priority alongside store openings, supporting per-share earnings growth despite no dividend payout.

Wall Street forecasts that O'Reilly's earnings per share will rise by roughly 8.8% in 2025 and 11.4% in 2026. While profit growth remains consistent, investors should weigh valuation headwinds; the stock trades at an elevated price-to-earnings multiple compared to its long-term average. Historically, only one annual decline occurred in the past decade, but any contraction in investor sentiment could offset earnings gains and influence total returns through the coming year.
