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.

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
