A higher than expected tax rate resulted in a negative $0.01 EPS impact relative to our model. Management raised FY13 EPS guidance from $5.64-$5.74 to $5.79-$5.89, raising the midpoint by +2.6%, or $0.15 relative to the $0.10 EPS beat in 2Q13 (implying $0.05 guidance raise for 2H13).”
O'Reilly Automotive closed on Wednesday at $117.83.
