Time and time again, Team O’Reilly has demonstrated its ability to successfully build
and acquire new stores. This year was no exception. We added 121 new stores and successfully
completed our acquisition of Mid-State Automotive Distributors, Inc., for an additional 82 stores
making a total of 203 stores added in 2001. Our tradition of aggressive growth will continue
throughout 2002 with the planned opening of 100 new stores. The acquisition of Mid-State was
a great fit for O’Reilly. Mid-State had been in business for 33 years with a strong wholesale hard
parts background and independently owned jobber store business. The seven contiguous states,
82 stores and two strategically located distribution centers set the stage for our future growth.
The conversion of the Mid-State stores to O’Reilly Auto Parts stores will build on the established
professional installer business while creating growth opportunities in the retail business.
