Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Trustees of Fastenal Company &
Subsidiaries 401(k) Plan:
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of Fastenal Company & Subsidiaries 401(k) Plan (the Plan) as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets (held at end of year) is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements, but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan’s management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

FASTENAL COMPANY & SUBSIDIARIES 401(k) PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2006 and 2005
| (1) | Description of the Plan |
The following description of the Fastenal Company & Subsidiaries 401(k) Plan (the Plan) provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for a more complete description of the Plan’s provisions.
| (a) | General |
The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering all full-time and part-time U.S. employees of Fastenal Company & Subsidiaries (the Company). Employees are eligible to participate in the Plan beginning on January 1 or July 1 after completing 12 months of service and attaining the age of 21. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).
| (b) | Contributions |
Participants’ contributions are recorded in the period that the participants’ payroll deductions are made. Participants may contribute an amount not less than 1% or more than 100% of their eligible compensation. Employee contributions are 100% vested at all times. Effective January 2005, a discretionary employer matching contribution was implemented as a new feature to the Plan. During 2006, the Company made a discretionary contribution of $3,051,466 to the Plan.
The Company does not limit participant contributions; however, the Tax Reform Act of 1986 allows a maximum participant annual pretax contribution of $15,000 and $14,000 for calendar years 2006 and 2005, respectively.
Highly compensated employees may be limited to lower contribution percentages in order for the Plan to satisfy the discrimination tests of the Internal Revenue Code. Changes in contributions are allowed based on the provisions of the Plan.
| (c) | Participant Allocation of Income and Loss |
The net income or loss of each fund at each valuation date is allocated to each participant’s account in the same ratio that such account bears to the total of all participants’ accounts invested in the fund as of the valuation date. The basis for allocation is the time-weighted balance in the participant’s account during the period.
| (d) | Payment of Benefits |
Distributions may be made upon the occurrence of any of the following:
| • | Any termination of employment, |
| • | Death of an actively employed participant prior to the normal retirement date (age 65), |
| • | Termination of the Plan, |
| • |
Participant is still employed and has reached age 59 1/2, |
| • | Disability, |

The preceding plan description is intended for summary purposes only. The Plan document should be consulted for specific details.
| (2) | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
| (a) | Basis of Presentation |
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting.
| (b) | Use of Estimates |
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires the plan administrator to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of net assets available for benefits and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of changes in net assets available for benefits during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
| (c) | Investment Valuation and Income Recognition |
Investments of the Plan are stated at fair value. Fair value is the last reported sales price on the last business day of the month for securities traded on a national securities exchange. Fair value for shares of mutual and common collective trust funds is the net asset value of those shares or units, as determined by the respective fund.
Purchases and sales of investments are reflected on a trade-date basis. Net appreciation (depreciation) in the fair value of investments includes gains and losses on investments bought and sold, as well as held, during the year. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Accrued investment income is reflected in the investment balance.
| 11 | (Continued) |
FASTENAL COMPANY & SUBSIDIARIES 401(K) PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2006 and 2005
| (d) | Adoption of New Accounting Standard |
In December 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. AAG INV-1 and SOP 94-4-1, Reporting of Fully Benefit-Responsive Investment Contracts Held by Certain Investment Companies Subject to the AICPA Investment Company Guide and Defined-Contribution Health and Welfare and Pension Plans. This FSP requires that fully benefit-responsive investment contracts held by defined-contribution plans to be reported at fair value. However, the FSP states that contract value is the relevant measurement attribute for that portion of the net assets available for benefits of a defined-contribution plan attributable to fully benefit-responsive investment contracts because contract value is the amount participants would receive if they were to initiate permitted transactions under the terms of the Plan. As required by the FSP, the Statement of Net Assets Available for Benefits presents the fair value of the investment contracts as well as the adjustment of the fully benefit-responsive investment contracts from fair value to contract value. The Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits is prepared on a contract value basis.
This FSP is effective for financial statement periods ending after December 15, 2006, at which time the Plan adopted it. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year’s financial statements to conform to the current year’s presentation.
| (3) | Tax Status |
The Internal Revenue Service has issued a favorable opinion letter on the prototype document stating that the prototype plan format (which the Plan is utilizing) qualifies under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). This prototype plan is a nonstandardized plan and, therefore, the plan administrator has indicated it will not be applying for the Plan’s own determination letter. However, the plan administrator believes the Plan is a qualified plan and does not believe any events have occurred that might adversely affect the Plan’s qualified status.
| (4) | Reconciliation of Financial Statements to Form 5500 |
The following is a reconciliation of net assets available for benefits per the financial statements at December 31, 2006 to the Form 5500:

Merrill Lynch Trust Company manages the Plan’s investment assets and executes transactions therein pursuant to discretionary authority granted by the Plan concerning purchases and sales of investments in the various funds.
Transactions for participant contributions to the Plan and benefits paid to participants are under the direct control of the plan administrator.

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2006 and 2005
During 2006 and 2005, the Plan’s investments (including gains and losses on investments bought and sold, as well as held during the year) appreciated (depreciated) in value by a net $1,254,930 and $3,437,569, respectively, as follows:
| 2006 | 2005 | |||||
| Investment funds |
$ | 2,709,880 | 846,574 | |||
| Fastenal Company Common Stock |
(1,454,950 | ) | 2,590,995 | |||
| $ | 1,254,930 | 3,437,569 | ||||
| (7) | Party-in-interest Transactions |
The Plan engages in transactions involving the acquisition and disposition of investments with fiduciaries of the Plan including, but not limited to, the trustee and administrator of the Plan and the Company. The fiduciaries are considered parties-in-interest; however, the transactions are not considered prohibited transactions under ERISA.
| (8) | Risk and Uncertainties |
The Plan offers a number of investment options to participants that are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, credit, and overall market volatility risk. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect the amounts reported in the statements of net assets available for benefits and participant accounts.
At December 31, 2006 and 2005, approximately 29% and 29%, respectively, of the Plan’s net assets were invested in the common stock of Fastenal Company. The underlying value of the Fastenal Company stock is entirely dependent upon the performance of Fastenal Company and the market’s evaluation of such performance. It is at least reasonably possible that changes in the fair value of Fastenal Company Common Stock in the near term could materially affect participants’ account balances and the amounts reported in the statement of net assets available for benefits and the statement of changes in net assets available for benefits.
