Financial report summary
?Management Discussion
- For the fiscal year ended August 29, 2020, we reported net sales of $12.632 billion compared with $11.864 billion for the year ended August 31, 2019, a 6.5% increase from fiscal 2019. This growth was driven primarily by a domestic same store sales increase of 7.4% and net sales of $244.7 million from new stores. Same store sales are computed on a 52-week basis. Domestic commercial sales increased $164.9 million, or 6.4%, over domestic commercial sales for fiscal 2019.
- At August 29, 2020, we operated 5,885 domestic stores, 621 in Mexico and 43 in Brazil, compared with 5,772 domestic stores, 604 in Mexico and 35 in Brazil at August 31, 2019. We reported a total auto parts segment (domestic, Mexico and Brazil) sales increase of 6.5% for fiscal 2020.
- Gross profit for fiscal 2020 was $6.771 billion, or 53.6% of net sales, a 5 basis point decrease compared with $6.365 billion, or 53.7% of net sales for fiscal 2019. The decrease in gross margin was primarily attributable to lower merchandise margins driven primarily by a shift in mix.
