What is this Case About: Advance Auto Parts (AAP) Misled Investors Regarding its Strategic Pricing Initiatives

According to the complaint, on November 16, 2022, the Company held its quarterly earnings call for investors wherein AAP president and CEO Thomas R. Greco announced "strategic pricing initiatives" aimed to help propel margins growth in 2023. On May 31, 2023, AAP held its quarterly earnings call for 2023 first quarter, wherein Greco noted that AAP's "financial results in the first quarter were well below expectations." The Company consequently revised downward its 2023 guidance to an operating margin of 5% to 5.3% from the previously announced 7.8% to 9.2% margins. On this news, the price of AAP shares closed at $72.89, down $39.31, or 35%, from the prior day.

Plaintiff alleges that during the class period, defendants (1) misrepresented the efficacy of AAP’s strategic pricing initiative and the impact of price reductions; (2) omitted and/or concealed the negative impacts of the pricing initiative; (3) provided investors with an overly optimistic perception of AAP’s operations; and (4) created the false impression that inflation and macroeconomic factors had an insubstantial impact on the Company’s margins.
