The Home Depot Announces Second Quarter Fiscal 2024 Results; Updates Fiscal 2024 Guidance

Source: PR Newswire (US)
ATLANTA, Aug. 13, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The Home Depot®, the world's largest home improvement retailer, today reported sales of $43.2 billion for the second quarter of fiscal 2024, an increase of 0.6% from the second quarter of fiscal 2023. Total sales include $1.3 billion from the recent acquisition of SRS Distribution Inc. (SRS), which represents approximately six weeks of sales in the quarter. Comparable sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 decreased 3.3%, and comparable sales in the U.S. decreased 3.6%.

Operating income for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 was $6.5 billion and operating margin was 15.1%, compared with operating income of $6.6 billion and an operating margin of 15.4% for the second quarter of fiscal 2023.

Adjusted(1) operating income for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 was $6.6 billion and adjusted(1) operating margin was 15.3%, compared with adjusted operating income of $6.6 billion and an adjusted operating margin of 15.5% for the second quarter of fiscal 2023.

Net earnings for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 were $4.6 billion, or $4.60 per diluted share, compared with net earnings of $4.7 billion, or $4.65 per diluted share, in the same period of fiscal 2023.

Adjusted(1) diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 were $4.67, compared with adjusted diluted earnings per share of $4.68 in the same period of fiscal 2023.

"The underlying long-term fundamentals supporting home improvement demand are strong," said Ted Decker, chair, president and CEO. "During the quarter, higher interest rates and greater macro-economic uncertainty pressured consumer demand more broadly, resulting in weaker spend across home improvement projects. However, the team continued to navigate this unique environment while executing at a high level. I would like to thank our associates for their hard work and dedication to serving our customers and communities."

Fiscal 2024 Guidance

The company updated its fiscal 2024 guidance, which includes 53 weeks of operating results, to reflect the performance in the first half of fiscal 2024 and include SRS:

Total sales to increase between 2.5% and 3.5% including the 53rd week
53rd week projected to add approximately $2.3 billion to total sales
SRS expected to contribute approximately $6.4 billion in incremental sales
Comparable sales to decline between 3% and 4% for the 52-week period compared to fiscal 2023
Comparable sales decline of 3% implies a consumer demand environment consistent with the first half of fiscal 2024
While comparable sales for the company are not currently on the trajectory for the low end of the range, a 4% decline implies incremental pressure on consumer demand
Approximately 12 new stores
Gross margin of approximately 33.5%
Operating margin rate to be between 13.5% to 13.6%
Adjusted(1), (2) operating margin rate to be between 13.8% to 13.9%
Tax rate of approximately 24%
Net interest expense of approximately $2.2 billion
53-week diluted earnings-per-share-percent decline between 2% and 4%
53rd week expected to contribute approximately $0.30 of diluted earnings per share compared to fiscal 2023
53-week adjusted(1), (3) diluted earnings-per-share to decline between 1% and 3%
53rd week expected to contribute approximately $0.30 of adjusted diluted earnings per share compared to fiscal 2023
The Home Depot will conduct a conference call today at 9 a.m. ET to discuss information included in this news release and related matters. The conference call will be available in its entirety through a webcast and replay at ir.homedepot.com/events-and-presentations.

Filed a complaint with the Illinois Attorney General about home depots "email of a refund which they never issue unless you call them TEN days later and inquire as to why the refund has still not even been issued"...

Corp HD never even honored their word or even attempted to issue the refund in 10 days

i had to drive the whole process...

to send an email alleging a refund has been made and then not issue the refund...

is this going on at a grand scale with many customers?

could well be - if it happened to me the odds are extremely high the same is happening with many other HD customers...

really sad - a individuals or a company's most valuable possession is their reputation

a person's word or a company's word is directly related to their reputation

when you fail to honor your word, you have a direct impact on your reputation!!!

Home Depot is NOT an honest company -

On Sept 30th they lied to me and told me they were issuing a refund within 3 to 5 days -

They never issued the refund and it appears they never intended to ever issue the refund

10 days later i contacted the local store and they issued me a refund

Unacceptable - Corp HQ LIED when they said they issued the refund on Sept 30th

The REPUTATION of Home Depot (their most valuable asset) is SHIT -

DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY AS THEY ARE DISHONEST AND OF POOR CHARACTER

Ryobi is awesome for price snd quality. I can’t tell you how many times I go in a Harbor Freight and buy a new era power tool, use it for a job snd trash it. Give it away or leave it on the job. I know, it’s crazy. I’m always within a few miles of a Lowes or a HD. I keep My Ryobi line due to the battery I compile.

I don’t buy a power tool to last generations like my granddads craftsman’s tools from the 60s that still work like a boss.
It’s all about convenance and saving time. One stop shopping is key.

They'll be kicked out in foreclosure! Anyone that wanted to upgrade did it in 2020 when everything became half price! You're lookin' strait in the eyes of 2008 crash X10!

Ryobi is trash! Owned by Techtronic Industries. TTI

Aren’t the guts all made by Ryobi?
HD survives off appliance sales. Higher interests rates means people stay in their home and upgrade.,
HD will kiss $300 after the Nov election. Hope and confidence will flood back into America.
35k shares strong.

As long as the wage is = to Federal or State minimum wage, it is legal!!!

Most of them are not even worth half of the Federal minimum wage.

Supply of employees is up but demand is going lower(Recess)!

LOL, here's something for you to digest. HOme Depot (Like Lowes) raised employee wages some time ago because theyw ere caring about them working thru covid shutdown scamdemic.. BLAH, BLAH, BLAH,

Well other day, they told all employees they are reducing their hourly wages now that Pandemic is lessened, and peoples' hourly rate just dropped
minimum $1.00 ! Where the hell is State or Federal Wage & Hour Bureaus out there caring for these employees?

This is supposed to be illegal- "dropping anyone's wage rate".. as it relates to work slavery issues...

Look it up.

Very bad thing to see done for morale...
