Selling car parts, buying back stock - Autozone | Summer Series

Welcome to the Equity Mates Summer Series, over 12 episodes we’re deep diving into some of the most exciting, interesting and well-known companies from around the world. AutoZone, Inc., the leading American retailer in aftermarket automotive parts and accessories, stands as the largest of its kind in the United States. Specialising in auto parts retail with its own private label brands, AutoZone boasts a robust network of 7,140 stores spanning the United States, Mexico, Puerto Rico, Brazil, and the US Virgin Islands. Unique to its operational model, all AutoZone stores are corporately owned, as the company operates without franchises. We're joined by Anthony Doyle, the Head of Investment Strategy for the Firetrail S3 Global Opportunities Fund, to go through the numbers. He goes through his thoughts on where the company trying to build a sustainable competitive advantage, what he'd be most concerned about if you were to invest, and if the company is successful in its ambitions, what that'll look like in 10 years.

The Equity Mates Summer Series is proud to partner with CommSec, the home of investing. Often we get frustrated with the lack of access to international markets, particularly when there are so many great opportunities outside of Australia. However, with CommSec those opportunities are a reality, with access to 13 international markets, from the US, to Norway, Germany and Japan.
