ROCHESTER, N.Y. – May 18, 2023 – Monro, Inc. (Nasdaq: MNRO), a leading provider of automotive undercar repair and tire services, today announced financial results for its fourth quarter and fiscal year ended March 25, 2023.
Fourth Quarter Results2
Sales for the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended March 25, 2023 (“fiscal 2023”) decreased 5.2% to $310.8 million, as compared to $328.0 million for the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended March 26, 2022 (“fiscal 2022”). The total sales decline of $17.2 million was due to the divestiture of the Company’s Wholesale tire and distribution assets in the first quarter of fiscal 2023. Sales for these divested assets were $30.4 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022. Comparable store sales increased 4.5% for the period, driven by an approximate 7% comparable store sales increase in approximately 300 of the Company’s small or underperforming stores. This compares to an increase in comparable store sales of 1.4% in the prior year period. Sales from new stores increased $2.0 million, primarily from recent acquisitions. When adjusted for one fewer selling day in the current year quarter due to a shift in timing of the Christmas holiday from the third quarter in fiscal 2022 to the fourth quarter in fiscal 2023, comparable store sales increased 5.6%.
| 1 | Adjusted diluted EPS is a non-GAAP measure. Please refer to the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section below for a discussion of this non-GAAP measure. |
| 2 | Financial performance for prior year includes the results of divested Wholesale tire and distribution assets. |
Comparable store sales, adjusted for days, increased approximately 15% for batteries, 11% for maintenance services and 5% for brakes and tires compared to the prior year period. Comparable store sales, adjusted for days, decreased approximately 3% for alignments and 4% for front end/shocks. Please refer to the “Comparable Store Sales” section below for a discussion of how the Company defines comparable store sales.
Gross margin increased 150 basis points to 33.4% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 from 31.9% in the prior year period. The year-over-year improvement primarily resulted from 210 basis points of benefit from the divestiture of the Company’s Wholesale tire and distribution assets as well as material costs and distribution and occupancy costs that were lower as a percentage of sales. This was partially offset by a 160 basis point increase in technician labor costs due to an incremental investment in technician headcount as well as wage inflation.
Total operating expenses for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 were $97.6 million, or 31.4% of sales, as compared to $93.2 million, or 28.4% of sales in the prior year period. The increase as a percentage of sales was principally due to the divestiture of the Company’s Wholesale tire and distribution assets, increased store management employee costs and higher marketing spend to drive additional sales.
Operating income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 was $6.2 million, or 2.0% of sales, as compared to $11.5 million, or 3.5% of sales in the prior year period.
Interest expense was $5.9 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, as compared to $5.7 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, principally due to higher year-over-year interest rates.
Income tax expense in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 was $0.2 million, compared to an income tax benefit of $2.4 million in the prior year period, which included a $3.1 million tax benefit due to differences in statutory tax rates from loss years in which net operating losses have been carried back.
Net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 was $0.4 million, as compared to $8.6 million in the same period of the prior year. Diluted earnings per share for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 was $.01, compared to $.25 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022. Adjusted diluted earnings per share, a non-GAAP measure, for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 was $.08. This compares to adjusted diluted earnings per share of $.20 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022. Please refer to the reconciliation of adjusted diluted earnings per share in the table below for details regarding excluded items in the fourth quarters of fiscal 2023 and 2022. Please refer to the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section below for a discussion of this non-GAAP measure.
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company acquired 5 stores, opened 2 stores and closed 4 stores. Monro ended the quarter with 1,299 company-operated stores and 77 franchised locations.
“As we turn the page on fiscal 2023, I’d like to thank all of our teammates and customers for their contributions to the growth and prosperity of our company, and our shareholders for their continued support. While we delivered on our mid-single-digit comparable store sales expectations of approximately 5%, our profitability in the fourth quarter fell short of our expectations. Our gross margin in the fourth quarter was impacted by continued labor cost pressures and continued customer trade downs to opening price point tires. Although disappointing, we acted decisively with pricing actions on our opening price point tires as well as reductions in non-productive labor costs, including overtime hours in our stores. Encouragingly, we are confident that this lower profitability was isolated to the fourth quarter as our actions led to an improvement in our gross margins as the quarter progressed. We exited the fourth quarter with a fiscal March that was the strongest month in terms of gross margin performance of the three-month period and profitability improvements from our actions have continued into the first quarter of fiscal 2024. Fiscal 2023 was a foundational year of investment that sets the stage for a brighter future in the year ahead and beyond. While we have made substantial progress on the sales and cash creation pillars of our overall strategy, we have significant opportunities ahead to expand our margins. We will continue to drive our business toward consistently delivering mid-single-digit comparable sales growth with a commitment to a balanced approach between tire and service categories that will allow us to leverage our cost structure to deliver enhanced profitability. Our strategy and all of our initiatives are designed to restore our gross margins back to pre-COVID levels with double-digit operating margins over the longer-term”, said Mike Broderick, President and Chief Executive Officer.
Broderick continued, “We are very pleased to announce important governance enhancements today, including an amendment to declassify our Board of Directors as well as simplifying our capital structure through an agreement to eliminate our Class C Preferred Stock. We believe these enhancements are in the best interests of all shareholders and we are confident that these steps will make Monro a more attractive investment opportunity. We will continue to assess potential actions to further improve our governance, including adding director candidates to our Board who complement the skillsets and experience currently represented, and we will continue to seek active dialogue with our shareholder base to further these efforts.”
Full Year Results3
| • | Sales decreased 2.5% to $1.325 billion from $1.359 billion in fiscal 2022 due to the divestiture of the Company’s Wholesale tire and distribution assets in the first quarter of fiscal 2023. Comparable store sales increased 2.8%, compared to an increase of 15.2% in the prior year period. Comparable store sales at Retail locations increased 3.5%, compared to an increase of 17.1% in the prior year period. |
| • | Gross margin for fiscal 2023 was 34.4%, compared to 35.4% in the prior year, primarily due to higher material costs as well as higher costs for labor and wages on a year-over-year basis. This was partially offset by benefits to gross margin from the divestiture of the Company’s Wholesale tire and distribution assets in the first quarter of fiscal 2023. |
| • | Total operating expenses for fiscal 2023 were $376.4 million, or 28.4% of sales compared to $380.5 million, or 28.0% of sales in the prior year.

| • | Operating income was $79.8 million, or 6.0% of sales, compared to $101.3 million, or 7.5% of sales in the prior year period. |
| • | Interest expense was $23.2 million in fiscal 2023, compared to $24.6 million in the prior year, principally due to a decrease in weighted average debt. |
| • | Net income for fiscal 2023 was $39.0 million, or $1.20 per diluted share, as compared to $61.6 million, or $1.81 per diluted share in the prior year period. |
| • | Adjusted diluted earnings per share, a non-GAAP measure, in fiscal 2023 was $1.36. This compares to adjusted diluted earnings per share of $1.85 in fiscal 2022. Please refer to the reconciliation of adjusted diluted earnings per share in the table below for details regarding excluded items in fiscal 2023 and fiscal 2022. Please refer to the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section below for a discussion of this non-GAAP measure. |

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
The statements contained in this press release that are not historical facts may contain statements of future expectations and other forward-looking statements made pursuant to the Safe Harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements can be identified by such words and phrases as “design,” “expect,” “estimate,” “guidance,” “outlook,” “potential,” “strategy,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “may,” “might,” “will,” “intend,” and other similar words or phrases. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed. These factors include, but are not necessarily limited to product demand, dependence on and competition within the primary markets in which the Company’s stores are located, the need for and costs associated with store renovations and other capital expenditures, realizing the anticipated benefits of the divestiture of the Company’s wholesale tire and distribution assets, the effect of general business or economic conditions on the Company’s business, including consumer spending levels, inflation, and unemployment, seasonality, changes in the U.S. trade environment, including the impact of tariffs on products imported from China, the impact of competitive services and pricing, product
development, parts supply restraints or difficulties, the impact of weather trends and natural disasters, industry regulation, risks relating to leverage and debt service (including sensitivity to fluctuations in interest rates), continued availability of capital resources and financing, risks relating to protection of customer and employee personal data, risks relating to litigation, risks relating to integration of acquired businesses and other factors set forth elsewhere herein and in the Company’s Securities and Exchange Commission filings, including the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 26, 2022 and the Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 25, 2023, which the Company intends to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission this month. Except as required by law, the Company does not undertake and specifically disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances after the date of such statements.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to reporting diluted earnings per share (“EPS”), which is a generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) measure, this press release includes adjusted diluted EPS, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company has included a reconciliation from adjusted diluted EPS to its most directly comparable GAAP measure, diluted EPS. Management views this non-GAAP financial measure as a way to better assess comparability between periods because management believes the non-GAAP financial measure shows the Company’s core business operations while excluding certain non-recurring items and items related to store impairment charges and closings as well as our Monro.Forward or acquisition initiatives.
This non-GAAP financial measure is not intended to represent, and should not be considered more meaningful than, or as an alternative to, its most directly comparable GAAP measure. This non-GAAP financial measure may be different from similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.
Comparable Store Sales
The Company defines comparable store sales as sales for locations that have been opened or owned at least one full fiscal year. The Company believes this period is generally required for new store sales levels to begin to normalize. Management uses comparable store sales to assess the operating performance of the Company’s stores and believes the metric is useful to investors because the Company’s overall results are dependent upon the results of its stores.
