The bull case and the bear case

The bull case

  • Net sales rose 3.2% in fiscal 2025 to $164.7B, helped by the businesses outside the Primary segment, whose sales rose to $12.7B from $6.4B. 10-K, FY2025
  • Net sales in the quarter ended Aug 2, 2026 were $47.9B, up 5.7% on a year earlier, and net income rose 4.7% to $4.8B. 10-Q, quarter ended Aug 2, 2026
  • Operating cash flow was $11.4B in the first 6 months of fiscal 2026, against $9.0B a year earlier. 10-Q, quarter ended Aug 2, 2026
  • Total debt was $52.9B at Aug 2, 2026, down from $55.8B at the end of fiscal 2025. 10-Q, quarter ended Aug 2, 2026

  • Net income fell 4.4% in fiscal 2025 to $14.2B, and operating cash flow fell 17.6% to $16.3B. 10-K, FY2025

  • The 10-K lists the housing market, interest rates and home improvement spending, as well as integrating acquired companies, among its risks. 10-K, Item 1A

What optimists and skeptics tend to point to, each tied to a filing. Ticker Sage doesn't pick a side, and neither list is a reason to buy or sell.

What the company does

The Home Depot runs home improvement stores in the US, Canada and Mexico and, through SRS, distributes roofing, landscaping, pool and building supplies to professional contractors.

Home Depot's stores and websites in the US, Canada and Mexico form its one reportable segment, which it calls the Primary segment. They sell tools, building materials, lumber, appliances, paint, plumbing, flooring and garden products to do-it-yourself customers and professionals, plus installation services.

Its other businesses are SRS, bought in June 2024, and GMS, a specialty building products distributor that SRS acquired in fiscal 2025. Home Depot names its fiscal year by the calendar year it starts in, so fiscal 2025 means the year to Feb 1, 2026.

About these numbers

  • Home Depot's fiscal 2025 is the 52 weeks to Feb 1, 2026; it names fiscal years by the calendar year in which they start.
  • The category chart covers the largest Primary segment categories only, so it doesn't add up to all sales.
  • All other is SRS (including GMS), which Home Depot reports outside its Primary segment. It had no sales in fiscal 2023 because SRS was bought partway through fiscal 2024.
  • Total debt is commercial paper plus current and long-term debt, including finance leases, at carrying value.
