Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition

 

On February 27, 2018, AutoZone, Inc. (the “AutoZone”) issued a press release announcing its earnings for the fiscal quarter ended February 10, 2018 and furnished the press release with a Current Report on Form 8-K filed on that day (the “Initial 8-K”). The press release contained certain typographical errors relating to the location count and square footage for AutoZone stores. With respect to the 12 weeks ended February 10, 2018 and the 24 weeks ended February 10, 2018, the total square footage of AutoZone stores was 40,091,000. Additionally, with respect to the trailing 4 quarters ended February 10, 2018, the sales per average square foot was $269.

 

To correct this error, we are revising the information we provided in the press release we issued on February 27, 2018 by filing a revised Exhibit 99.1 with this amendment. This Form 8-K/A does not modify or update any other disclosure contained in or furnished with the Initial Form 8-K and this Form 8-K/A should be read in conjunction with the Initial Form 8-K.
