Report: O’Reilly Makes Cash Bid For Genuine Parts’ $10B Auto Unit

With the unit valued at $10 billion or more, a potential deal could be shared by the end of summer.

O'Reilly Automotive has made a cash bid for Genuine Parts' auto parts division, as shared in a report from Yahoo Finance.

With the unit valued at $10 billion or more, a potential deal could be shared by the end of summer. The news comes after Genuine Parts considered separating its parts business earlier in 2026.

Genuine Parts could still retain the business or seek a spinoff separately from O'Reilly, noted Yahoo Finance

The purchase would mark O'Reilly’s largest since 2008, when it paid $1 billion to acquire CSK Auto Corp.
