Citigroup Maintains Neutral on Advance Auto Parts, Lowers Price Target to $40

JPMorgan analyst Christopher Horvers reiterated the Neutral rating on Advance Auto Parts Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAP#NYSE">AAP</a>), with a price forecast of $41.
Yesterday, the company reported fourth-quarter adjusted earnings per share of $1.18 loss, which is in line<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/02/43973611/advance-auto-parts-q4-sales-beat-expectations-but-margins-slide-stock-dips" rel="noreferrer noopener">&nbsp;with the analyst consensus estimate</a>. Quarterly sales of $2 billion (down 0.9% year over year) outpaced the street view of $1.93 billion. Comparable store sales for the fourth quarter decreased 1.0%.
The analyst maintains a Neutral rating, noting Advance Auto Parts is losing market share, reversing course on pricing, and expecting a margin below 1% in 2024, much lower than its prior long-term target.
The analyst seeks more clarity due to Advance Auto Parts&#8217; ongoing turnaround.
Horvers highlights that Advance Auto Parts anticipates modest macro improvement in the second half of the year.

The analyst notes that Advance Auto Parts sees strength in filters, fluids, and chemicals, but continued weakness in discretionary categories, which is not expected to improve in FY25.
The slower start to first quarter was attributed to weather, tax refunds, and general softness in its core consumer.
However, management expects seasonal comparisons to ease in the coming weeks and is preparing for when the weather improves.
Horvers now models first quarter and FY25 comps at -2% and +0.6%, respectively.
Horvers highlights that the company expects to achieve a mid-40s GM and a 7% operating margin by 2027, with a strong 2025 gross margin exit rate in Q4.
The analyst models a first-quarter gross margin of 43.8% and a 2025 gross margin of 44.0%.
Price Action: AAP shares are trading higher by 1.41% to $38.25&nbsp;at last check Thursday.

Insights From Analysts
Ryan Detrick, the chief market strategist at Carson Group reiterated his old seasonality analysis of how "late February tends to be weak," especially in a post-election year.

He also compiled the data since 1990 when the S&amp;P 500 index hit an all-time high and declined for four consecutive days. Such a trend was last observed in January 2022. According to the data, the index has ended higher 80% of the time in the year following such a trend with an average return of 9.2%.
Highlighting this data, Detrick concluded that the S&amp;P 500's four-day fall was a "non-event," in his X post.

Investors may need to drastically alter their strategies as demographic trends shift, potentially impacting inflation, interest rates, and economic growth, according to David Kelly, Chief Global Strategist at JPMorgan Asset Management.
Donald Trump administration&#8217;s curb on immigration after a period of very strong and chaotic unauthorized immigration could lead to the forecasters marking down their estimates of &#8220;population and labor force growth and increase their estimates of inflation, interest rates, and capital spending on productivity-enhancing equipment,&#8221; said Kelly.
"Investors will have to watch Washington as much as the markets to assess how to adjust investment strategy for demographics in 2025," he added.
