Home Depot (HD) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Home Depot has demonstrated a positive financial trajectory, highlighted by a 2.4% increase in ticket size during 4Q25, suggesting effective price strategies and customer engagement with higher-value products. The company is capitalizing on a projected 14% year-over-year rise in existing home sales for 2026, coupled with a substantial total addressable market expansion to $1.2 trillion that now includes the HVAC sector. With an anticipated increase in earnings per share to $16.57 for 2027, paired with a rising operating margin, Home Depot's financial outlook remains robust amidst ongoing market developments.
Bears say
Home Depot's financial performance shows a concerning trend, with a 3.8% decrease in sales to $38.2 billion, falling short of estimates and indicating a challenging retail environment amidst mixed results from home improvement suppliers. The company experienced an adjusted operating margin contraction of approximately 10 basis points to 13.0%, alongside a gross margin decline of 19 basis points to 32.6%, undermining profitability amidst stagnating demand. Furthermore, macroeconomic factors such as elevated mortgage rates, high home prices, and a lack of improvement in housing affordability are expected to persist, limiting any potential revenue growth in the near future.
