Growth Strategy and Important Metrics
Investing activities have increased from $74 in 2009 to $166.2 in
2011 (in millions)
Attributed to the addition of 85 new stores in 2011, the
construction of a new distribution center in KY, and the purchase
of 12 of their previously leased stores in 2011
The company leases 93% of their stores, of their total 1,085
stores in 44 states as of Dec 31, 2011
“We have developed a proven method for selecting store sites
and have identified over 1,000 additional markets for new Tractor
Supply stores.”
Growth Strategy and Important Metrics Cont. Strong same store sales growth.
Long term goal to have private label brands account for 25% of sales, boosting margins and bottom line growth.
Realistic stock buy back program
“We believe that Tractor Supply has successfully tweaked merchandise assortment across its stores, which is in line with the prolonged economic downturn. The company has increased the proportion of less discretionary items, such as animal and pet-related products, while reducing shelf space for certain big-ticket merchandise, such as outdoor power equipment.” – Zacks Equity Research
“Intangibles”
An established and trusted brand
Members of the community, not just
another store
Operate in a niche market with no direct
competitors
Recommendation
Step into the position with half of our intended holding
The company has a high P/E of 26 and could fall given a
miss in earnings or a negative short term headline
Purchasing the other half if P/E drops to 21-22
