Genuine Parts: Long-Term Upside Still Here, Buy Confirmed
We believe Advance Auto's withdrawal from key markets presents further sales opportunities for Genuine Parts. On a higher consideration, the aging car population and increased car complexity will be key winners in GPC's equity story. Valuation at a discount vs. its past, with a solid balance sheet and 69th consecutive year of increased DPS paid to shareholders. This is still a buy.

Genuine Parts: Margins Are Guided Down Despite Expected Industrial Recovery
Genuine Parts Company reported expectedly subdued Q4 results, with Automotive results being pressured by industry weakness, but Industrial performance seeming to lag some encouraging economic signals. The 2025 guidance suggests a subdued Automotive sales performance, but an encouraging recovery in Industrial. Negatively, profitability is guided to continue declining despite restructuring savings. GPC stock prices in slow organic earnings growth, in line with my expectations.
