Description: GPC Genuine Parts

Genuine Parts Company (NYSE:GPC) is a leading distributor of automotive and industrial replacement parts, operating through its Automotive Parts Group and Industrial Parts Group. The business serves a broad spectrum of customers-from DIY enthusiasts at its NAPA-branded independent repair shops and online platform to professional fleets that require heavy-duty components, custom services, and inventory-management solutions.

In the most recent fiscal year (2025), GPC reported revenue of $14.9 billion, a 4.2% year-over-year increase driven largely by higher sales of electric-vehicle (EV) and hybrid parts. Adjusted earnings per share rose to $5.84, and the company maintained its 3.5% dividend yield, marking the 21st consecutive year of dividend growth. Inventory turnover improved to 6.1×, reflecting tighter supply-chain execution and stronger demand forecasting.

Key drivers for the sector include the accelerating adoption of EVs-projected to account for 18% of the U.S. light-vehicle aftermarket by 2027-and resilient consumer spending on vehicle maintenance despite modest macro-economic headwinds. Additionally, labor shortages in the skilled-trade workforce are prompting fleets to rely more on third-party distributors like GPC for comprehensive parts-and-service solutions.
