Description: GPC Genuine Parts October 16, 2025
Genuine Parts Company (NYSE:GPC) is a long-standing distributor of automotive and industrial replacement parts, founded in 1928 and headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia. It operates two primary segments: the Automotive Parts Group, which supplies a broad catalog of parts, accessories, and services for conventional, hybrid, and electric vehicles, and the Industrial Parts Group, which serves heavy-duty, farm, and manufacturing equipment markets.
The Automotive segment includes NAPA retail stores, the NAPA online platform, and a suite of value-added services such as paint mixing, battery testing, and DIY workshops. The Industrial segment offers a wide range of products-from abrasives and hydraulics to safety equipment-and provides inventory-management solutions like vendor-managed inventory and RFID asset tracking. Both segments benefit from a national distribution network that supports aftermarket demand across passenger-car, commercial-vehicle, and equipment sectors.
Key performance indicators as of FY 2024 show $14.5 billion in revenue, a 9.5% operating margin, and a 4.2% dividend yield-metrics that are relatively resilient in a market where aftermarket sales are projected to grow 4–5% annually, driven by rising vehicle age, increasing EV adoption (which creates new parts-replacement cycles), and supply-chain tightening that favors established distributors. However, the company’s exposure to cyclical industrial capital-equipment spending and potential margin pressure from raw-material cost inflation remain material risks.
