SNAPFORWARD

Fastenal’s Fiscal 2016 (ended 12.31.16) results are in, and the good news is that the company recorded another year of record sales at $3.96 billion. However, leadership wasn’t ready to break out the champagne. That $3.96 billion represented a second straight year in which the rate of growth slowed – to 2.4% versus 3.6% in 2015 and 12.2% in 2014. In addition, the company ended the year with 119 less stores than it had on January 1st, and it cut 7% of its workforce over the course of the year. Back to better news. Fastenal ended 2016 with a relatively strong Q4 and net sales in January 2017 were up 9% year-over-year. Chain Store Guide sees continued revenue growth for 2017 in line with the 2015 and 2016 rates.
