The Zacks Consensus Estimate for second-quarter earnings per share has been revised upward by 16 cents in the past seven days to $3.72. The figure indicates a year-over-year decrease of 17.52%. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues also suggests a year-over-year decline of 5.69%.

Key Factors
O'Reilly is anticipated to have gained from store openings and distribution centers in profitable regions during the second quarter.

O’Reilly’s cost-containment strategies including the postponement of discretionary capital investments are likely to have aided cash flow. Further, in order to serve customers effectively amid the coronavirus mayhem, it has undertaken several initiatives like curbside pick-up for Buy Online and Pick Up In-Store orders, to boost sales.
Nonetheless, with the pandemic rattling the auto industry, O’Reilly is expected to have been affected by the decline in customer demand and the bleak world economy outlook. The stores are expected to have witnessed a drop in footfall compared with the year-ago levels, hurting the firm’s sales and earnings. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for second-quarter 2020 comparable store sales is expected to be down 1.2% compared with 3.4% comps growth in the year-earlier quarter.

Group 1 Automotive, Inc. (GPI - Free Report) has an Earnings ESP of +114.82% and carries a Zacks Rank #3 currently. The company is set to announce earnings figures on Jul 30.
The Hottest Tech Mega-Trend of All
Last year, it generated $24 billion in global revenues. By 2020, it's predicted to blast through the roof to $77.6 billion. Famed investor Mark Cuban says it will produce "the world's first trillionaires," but that should still leave plenty of money for regular investors who make the right trades early.
