Home Depot Q3 sales rise 2.8% to $41.4 billion; EPS falls 1.4%, fiscal 2025 guidance updated
Home Depot reported third-quarter fiscal 2025 sales of $41.4 billion, up 2.8%, including about $900 million from the GMS acquisition, but diluted earnings per share fell 1.4% to $3.62 and adjusted EPS fell to $3.74 from $3.78. The company said results missed its expectations, citing few storms and weak housing and consumer demand, and it updated its fiscal 2025 guidance to project diluted EPS down about 6.0% from $14.91, which lowers the earnings outlook for shareholders.
