Advance Auto Parts, Inc., a leading automotive aftermarket parts provider in North America that serves both professional installer and do-it-yourself customers announced preliminary second quarter 2025 financial highlights.

“Our team remains focused on implementing our strategic initiatives to improve business performance. We are pleased to share preliminary second-quarter financial results, which align with the upper range of our expectations, demonstrating progress in our turnaround efforts,” said Shane O’Kelly, president and chief executive officer.

“Today, we are announcing proactive debt financing transactions, aimed at preserving financial flexibility for the business as we continue to execute our initiatives.”

“We are working closely with our banking partners to establish a revised debt financing structure that we believe serves as a bridge toward re-attainment of an investment grade credit rating in the future,” said Ryan Grimsland, executive vice president and chief financial officer.

“As we navigate the dynamic macro-economic environment, the additional liquidity generated from our financing plans will support the new asset-backed revolving loan facility and commitments under the supply chain financing program utilized by our vendors. We believe that our revised debt structure will position us to maintain continued access to this program while providing us the optionality to optimize the program for the long-term.”
