| General | Note A – General The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with United States (“U.S.”) generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and are presented in accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (the “SEC”) rules and regulations. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, including normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the AutoZone, Inc. (“AutoZone” or the “Company”) Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 30, 2025. Operating results for the twelve and thirty-six weeks ended May 9, 2026, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year ending August 29, 2026. Each of the first three quarters of AutoZone’s fiscal year consists of 12 weeks, and the fourth quarter consists of 16 or 17 weeks. The fourth quarters of fiscal 2026 and 2025 each have 16 weeks. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740). The amendments in this ASU are intended to enhance the transparency of income tax information by updating income tax disclosure requirements. The guidance is effective for public entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, and early adoption is permitted. The amendments in this ASU should be applied on a prospective basis; however, retrospective application is permitted. The Company will adopt this standard with its fiscal 2026 annual filing. The Company is currently evaluating these new disclosure requirements and does not expect the adoption to have a material impact. In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40). This ASU requires disclosure in the notes to the financial statements, at each interim and annual reporting period, of specified information about certain costs and expenses including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation and intangible asset amortization included in each relevant expense caption. Also required is a qualitative description of the amounts remaining in relevant expense captions that are not separately disaggregated. This ASU is effective for all public entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and early adoption is permitted. This ASU should be applied either prospectively to financial statements issued after the effective date of this update or retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company will adopt this standard with its fiscal 2028 annual filing. The Company is currently evaluating these new disclosure requirements and the impact of adoption. In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40). This ASU is intended to modernize internal-use software guidance by removing all project stages and clarifying the thresholds entities apply to begin capitalizing costs. This ASU is effective for all entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, and early adoption is permitted. The amendments in this ASU may be applied using a prospective, modified, or retrospective transition approach. This update will be effective for the Company beginning with its fiscal 2029 first quarter. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption.
