  • GPC Jumps 12.9% as O'Reilly Looks to Buy Auto Unit, Market Eyes Industrial Shift
    July 3, 2026, 5:13 AM EDT. Genuine Parts (GPC) shares soared 12.9% to $132.57 after news hit of O'Reilly Automotive's cash bid topping $10 billion for its auto-parts segment. The reported offer puts a spotlight on GPC's move to tighten its focus on the industrial parts business, where management targets better margins and growth. Even with a big stock surge, analysts left the consensus EPS at $2.10 for next quarter. Revenue is forecast up 3.6% to $6.39 billion from last year. Some say GPC may not hold onto gains unless earnings estimates start to climb. GPC is still rated Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). Over at Driven Brands Holdings (DRVN), shares added 2.6%, with its EPS estimate nudged up over the past month.
