In addition, we remain on schedule to open our next distribution center in Guadalajara, Mexico, this summer. This facility will provide an enhanced level of service to the large and growing Guadalajara metro area, while also better positioning our overall distribution network for future growth across Mexico. Team O’Reilly’s incredible dedication and hard work drove these tremendous accomplishments, and I could not be more proud of our achievements this quarter and the great work our Teams have done to position us to build upon our record of strong, profitable growth well into the future.”

The table below outlines the Company’s updated guidance for selected full-year 2023 financial data:For the Year Ending December 31, 2023 Net, new store openings 180 to 190 Comparable store sales 4% to 6% Total revenue $15.2 billion to $15.5 billion Gross profit as a percentage of sales 50.8% to 51.3% Operating income as a percentage of sales 19.8% to 20.3% Effective income tax rate 22.9% Diluted earnings per share (1) $36.50 to $37.00 Net cash provided by operating activities $2.5 billion to $2.9 billion Capital expenditures $750 million to $800 million Free cash flow (2) $1.8 billion to $2.1 billion (1) Weighted-average shares outstanding, assuming dilution, used in the denominator of this calculation, includes share repurchases made by the Company through the date of this release.
(2) Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure. The table below reconciles Free cash flow guidance to Net cash provided by operating activities guidance, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure:For the Year Ending (in millions) December 31, 2023 Net cash provided by operating activities $ 2,560 to $ 2,920 Less: Capital expenditures 750 to 800 Excess tax benefit from share-based compensation payments 10 to 20 Free cash flow $ 1,800 to $ 2,100 Non-GAAP Information
This release contains certain financial information not derived in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). These items include adjusted debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, share-based compensation, and rent (“EBITDAR”) and free cash flow. The Company does not, nor does it suggest investors should, consider such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, GAAP financial information. The Company believes that the presentation of adjusted debt to EBITDAR and free cash flow provide meaningful supplemental information to both management and investors that is indicative of the Company’s core operations. The Company has included a reconciliation of this additional information to the most comparable GAAP measure in the table above and the selected financial information below.Earnings Conference Call Information
