Description: HD The Home Depot December 01, 2025

The Home Depot, Inc. (NYSE: HD) is the largest U.S. home-improvement retailer, offering a broad assortment of building materials, décor, lawn-and-garden items, and a suite of professional installation and equipment-rental services. Its customer base spans DIY homeowners, professional remodelers, contractors, and specialty tradespeople, with sales delivered through a network of over 2,300 big-box stores and multiple e-commerce platforms (e.g., homedepot.com, homedepot.ca, homedepot.com.mx, and niche sites such as blinds.com).

Key recent metrics (FY 2024): revenue of $156 billion, comparable-store sales up 5.2% YoY, operating margin of 13.4%, and a dividend yield near 2.5%. The company generated $12 billion of free cash flow, supporting a $30 billion share-repurchase program and a 10-year dividend increase streak.

Sector drivers that materially affect HD’s outlook include: (1) residential construction activity, which is highly sensitive to mortgage rates and housing starts; (2) DIY spending trends, historically buoyed by consumer confidence and the “stay-at-home” effect; and (3) supply-chain resilience, as inventory turnover and freight cost volatility directly impact same-store sales performance.
