Home Depot CFO Says Retailer Won't Raise Prices Due To Tariffs, Reaffirms Full-Year Forecast
- Home Depot announced on Tuesday it will not raise prices due to tariffs and reaffirmed its full-year sales growth forecast amid a challenging market.
- This decision follows years of Home Depot diversifying its supply chains, reducing reliance on China and expecting no foreign country to exceed 10% of purchases within 12 months.
- In contrast to competitors like Walmart and Subaru, which have increased or announced intentions to increase prices in response to tariffs imposed under the Trump administration, Home Depot reported first-quarter revenue of $39.86 billion, surpassing analyst predictions.
- Home Depot’s same-store sales in the U.S. Increased by 0.2%, beating Wall Street’s forecast of a 0.1% decline, while customer transactions rose 2.1% during the quarter.
- The steady pricing and sales growth suggest Home Depot’s supply diversification strategy may mitigate tariff impacts, but the weak housing market and cautious consumer spending weigh on larger project demand.
