AutoZone vs the Consumer Discretionary sector and the S&P 500

AutoZone's latest reported figures next to the median of the other 46 S&P 500 Consumer Discretionary companies and of the other 502 S&P 500 companies; each median is taken over the companies with a comparable figure (counts in the footnote). A median is the middle value, not an average, so one very large company does not move it.

Measure	AutoZone	Consumer Discretionary (46 other S&P 500 companies)	S&P 500 (502 other companies)
Revenue growth, latest fiscal year	+2.4%	+5.2%	+7.0%
Net margin, latest fiscal year	13.2%	9.7%	12.9%
Share price change, 1 year	−21.9%	−9.2%	+5.9%

AutoZone: fiscal year ended August 2025, from its 10-K and 10-Q filings with the SEC. Medians computed October 20, 2026 from each company's latest annual filing (fiscal years ending between July 2025 and September 2026) and our price archive. Prices for every company, AutoZone included, are the last regular-session prices of October 19, 2026; the 1-year change compares that price with each company's last close on or before October 20, 2025. Net margin and price change are our calculations from reported figures. Each median counts only the companies with a comparable figure (sector / S&P 500): revenue growth 46/496, net margin 46/496, 1-year price change 46/490; the reasons below can overlap. 12 are left out of the price figure because our archive holds no comparable close for them. The S&P 500 price figure is the middle company's change, not the index's return.
