Companies Advance Auto Parts Inc FollowMay 31 (Reuters) - Advance Auto Parts Inc (AAP.N) lowered its full-year profit outlook on Wednesday on the back of elevated costs, sending the auto parts retailer's shares down 24% before the opening bell.
The Delaware-based supplier now expects to report net sales between $11.2 billion and $11.3 billion for 2023, down from its prior guidance of $11.4 billion to $11.6 billion.
Despite pricing actions, the company added that supply headwinds and unfavorable product mix pulled down its first-quarter earnings.
The company posted net income of $0.72 per share, down from $2.26 reported last year.
The Delaware-based supplier reported net sales of $3.42 billion for the quarter ended April 23, up 1.3% from the prior year.
