O'Reilly Automotive gains 2.6% as EPS slump weighs on valuation
O'Reilly Automotive shares rose 2.61% to $92.34 on Wednesday, recovering from a recent dip near the 52-week low of $82.59. The stock remains well below its 52-week high of $102.46, trading at a P/E of 28.17 on trailing earnings of $3.14 per share. Revenue grew 8.5% year over year, but EPS plunged 76.6%, reflecting a sharp margin compression. Net margin stands at 14.3%. The Alpha Score of 43.3 is driven by a momentum sub-score of 60, while value and quality sit at 39.8 and 42.3, respectively. Sentiment was not computed. Investors will watch next week's quarterly results for signs of margin stabilization and any update on full-year guidance.
